Mennso o r thf, Prbs* State Asso ciation. —We object to the proposed assemblage) of this body at Suvannah during the sitting of the Southern Tress Convention the present month. The prooaedings of the Association were hurried through at Atlanta to make way for the Press excursion., und then at it* adjourned meeting iu Macon was utterly overshadowed by the State Fair. At Savannah it would share the same fate and the dinings and jiuket ting and spouting of the Convention. Besides, so far as we are informed, the weekly press of the State haa nev er been invited to join the Southern Press Convention, and the presence of any of its representatives at that time, might be construed Into a desire to seek admittance where they -were not wanted. If the Association bus inherent merit, (and we believe it can be made largely beneficial to tbe craft,) let it appoint ii» own meetings, and assume the dignity and coseequenc* to which it is justly » ntitled jw the luver of public sentiment in a great commonwealth. Are our brethren afraid to co-operate in the premises ? or is there so little of fellowship and community of feeling be tween us, that association and inter course are barren of pleasure and inter est ? Let there boa showing of bauds nnd either abandon or sustain our Stale Association. Xu reply to friend Sneed*, purthenian arrow, we would say that we could liko nothing better than to enjoy » free ride with our editorial confreres every summer through our glorious mountain region it matters Dot at whoso expense So would the sage of the Republican, if lie could consent for a few days to forego hie turtle and champagne liba tions, Is he among tho specimens yclept “Savannah swelled heads?” Sympathy f.mi Cor>*. —The Jackson, vilte Union gives an account of a large meeting in behalf of the Cuban patriots, end reports the speeches of Dr. G.

The abolition, of slavory, annexation again, another batch of shiftless voters tnoro"bureau rascality, a rise in the su g.ir market, foreign wars, taxation, t co-Id without cud, are a few of the evils which the opening of this pandoras box wog'd let loose upon our devoted coun try.

The Telegraph reports Cambridge victorious over Oxfo and in the great boat race which has just been concluded. I®. The Mississippi Legislature con rials ..t present of seventy-four white members and thirty one colored-in the Il.iuse, and twenty nine white to colored members m the Senate. Educate tue Negro- The adoption of the 15th amendment, and its immediate enforcement, will throw into politics, without preparation or fitness either mm Ally or intellectual ly, three fourths of a million of colored voters. For the most part under ihe' centrol ami guidance «f artful, and corrupt men of both race??, it is easy to see rhat a powerful disturbing element to the public peace, we have now to con tend with. In many Btates this class will holti the balance of power com pletely between the existing political parties. Manifestly the question then obtains, what shall be done to modify and abate the threatened evil? We an swer, Christianize and educate the col ored masses. Legislative bodies, corporations, and the whites generally, must lend their in’ fluence, and co-operation to this great work. We do not mean Bitch educa tion as is usually imparted by N«w England Alarms, and interested carpet* buggers. This consists of a little smat tering from the bonks, and a vast aiß't'iiit of prejudice and ill feeling which is sedulously encouraged agaiust their employers, and the owners of the anil. Such teaching cun only result in a harvest of ruin to ajil concerned.— We would urge the faithful preaching of a pure gospel, and the establishment of first class common schools, presided over by men of the first intelligence, and finished education. Nor do wo regard this work as in any sense degrading to those engaged in it. On the contrary, they should be es teemed patriots and public benefactors of the highest order. A slave holder tiorself, and for five generations the descendant of those, who owned this species of property, and also a staunch believer in the rights of the master, both human and divine, we feel privileged to be candid in our ut terances. Before God, we believe that all of our national troubles grew out of tl\e refusal to giv,; the word of God to our uegroes, together with the übtenteim of proprietors from their plantations On tlvM subject a beukhy reaction was in progress before emancipation, and many of our Southern church ju dicatories had taken ground in favor of Legislative action in the premises.— Among theso wo would instance the Flint river Presbytery of Georgia. - But if duty and humanity indicated such a course at that period, interest and self preservation demand it now. We mutt educate tlie musses, or re. publican institutions will degouerato into a mobooracy, from whence the transition to an absolute form of government is easy. Miseegenation and tho destruction of caste, 'however, need not enter into the programme. God lias erected barriers between the various races of the globe which man may not seek to surmount. Experience, too, has shown that a mixed and mongrel population like all hybrids, results in degeneracy and moral ruin to each race. Let tho blacks therefore have schools, colleges, and other seminaries exclusive ly f.jr their own color, and until quali fied to teach, themselves, the best men in tl»o land should not hesitate to tak.e charge of these institution#. Ignorance is the hand maid of barba rism. And how can we expect an im provement in the morals of the frued men, until their minds and consciences ure enlightened by the rays of acience and revelation ? We repeat then, let us have a system of common schools adapted to- the wants of each race, and all unite in the commendable work, of elevating the mental and moral condition of the large portion of the community, who have lately been iuvested with the rights of citizenship. The Savannah Republican states that among the imports by the North German bal k Alamo, from Liv e p K'l, were 201 boxes of machinery for tho Eagle Manufacturing Company, at Columbus, in this State. This ia a move in the right direction. lostead of buying from Yankeedom. our Southern capital finds its away abroad. ‘‘The Women of the Lobby.*’ A correspondent of the World, gives a lengthly description of the operation of the Washington female bill-pushers and office-getters. It says : Among the lobby women here last winter was the daughter of a present United States Senator, whose father years ago refused to let her marry the man of her choice. She eloped with him - he deceived her by .a mock mar* riage, lie having two other wives, so call ed living—fie took all hjr jewels, and even most of her clothing, and aban doned her. She went to the bad head long, refused all overtures to return home, and the father and daughter used to pass one another in the Capitol a year ago—she a wanton and he a Sena tor —and never speak. Nor did either ever betray the event to any one. Ho caller her dead—she consented to be dead even to him. Another Senator’s wife, who is an in valid, cannot be unawue, for no one else ts, that her husband has stocked no less than six of his mistresses on the civil service as clerks, and that ho adds to the number every session. It will be interesting to note how tie votes on Mr. Cragin's anti-Moraion bill Another Senator, a Southwest carpet Dagger, loisted his misties on the Treas rry Department fast year, and was in fluential enough to have lieu salary con tinued while he sent her on to Now York to undergo an abortion. She died. The Senator himself drew the arrears of pay ostensibly for the motlnw of the murdered woman, who lias yet to see the first cent oi it. Another honorable, this time of the House, was driven out of a leading ho tel six years ago for notorious conduct with a married woman, and that with the consent of her husband. The bus band is now clerk of that C-mgressmau’s committee, his wife is the Congressman’*! niVtrens, her son is a page on the floor of the House, and waits on his mutual father every day. War Against ths Central Rail road. It has become fashionable with some of our interior prints, to attack and be rate thi* ancient enterprise with the ; most unsparing malignity. Welrstve no sympathy with any such course. To the'Central R diroad should be ascribed the honor of developing, more tlian every othej road in the State com bined, the material interests of Georgia- Though a stripling in years, we wel, remember the herculean efforts of th • lamented Gordon to construct this great work, when Railways every where wire but an experiment, and the Empiie State like a sleeping giant gave no in dications of her intrinsic and latent pow er. Southern commerce and capital also, in those days were in their infancy com paratively, and Savannah long stationa ry and even retrogress! v», was little more than a respectable aßd dilapida ted looking village. For many long years the work drag ged its weary trail along, and stockhold ere dispaired of the result of their ven tures But thunks to a tireless energy and enlightened fore cast, at length the goal was reached, and soon the ‘ quick ened pulses of trade, and the gathering products of the interior at their ocean outlet, sent new lift- through the arte ries of our Rip Van Winkle seaport. Theu sprang up a rage for internal improvements, which has since culmi nated in a magnificent net work of roads, which permeates all quarters of our great commonwealth. But not cantent with State lines, this powerful organization, under the suc cessive administration of sagacious men, has pushed f>n th its arms and feelers abroad, mid by consummate diplomacy and tact, invited to our borders, and poured in'o our lap* the weallh and pro ducts of distant regions. Nor ie there on record any instance of the so called rapacity, which would discriminate against even our own peo ple and cripple other enterprises. On the contrary, her powerful hand has been, vouchsafed to succor the weak and sink ing. Witness the aid extended to the 8a vannuh and Augusta Railroad, and the continued working of the Milledgoville brunch. The late effort to purchase the stock owned by Savannah, iu the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad, also, agaiust which such a hue and cry haa been raised, we hon estly believe would have inured to tlie advantage of that enterprise. Subsid ies might then have been afforded for tlie further extension westward, of Jhe Grdt Road, an object greatly to be de sired. In tho case of the lease of the Sou h western Railroad, likewise, ail the prog nostications of her enemies have been defeated, instead of increased freights thu tariff of rates lias been reduced and those unjust discriminations as to througli and local fuses, which gave such offence last year, have been greatly modified. In Conclusion therefore, we must pro test against the unnatural and ungen erous efforts of some of our conteinpo. raries, to break down tbe old central, and to that extend cripple the prosperi, y of our queenly seaboard metropolis. If Georgia was as true to her princi pal seaboard as Carolina is to Charles ton, Savannah would ere long occupy the very first rank among thi cities of the Western Continent For one, we wish her God speed with all our heart. Macon Presbytery. This eccle-iastical body closed its business in this city on noon, and adjourned to meet in the city of Columbus on Wednesday, the sth October, at 7i o’clock in the evening. Its sessions were characterized by great unanimity and good feeling, and impor tant matters received suitable attention. The discussions were conducted in the most animated and harmonious man ner. All tho delegates due were not present, but the number was large enough for practical purposes and enough to make the exercises highly in teresting. There was a reunion of friends, (run whom they had been long separated, and teacher and pupil met after an absence of a score of years. Tim people of Albany opened their houses and their hearts to the strangers, and many m rubers of both tho Baptist and .Methodist Churches welcomed and entertained the delg ites. Before adjournment the following resolution was passed : Resolved, That the thanks of the Presbytery be most heartily tendered to the officers and members of the Presby terian congregation, and the citizens of Albany for their generous hospitality; to the Methodist and the Baptist church es for the offer to their houses of wor ship on the Sabbath, and to the South' western Railroad for the reduction of lure to the members ot this body, and that tho Rev. Mr. McKay I e requested to communicate this resolution in such a way as he may deem advisable. Tin; pulpits of the several churches were occupied on the Sabbath by the several ministers of the Presbytery, and large and attentive congregations, listened to server and faithful Gospel sermons. ' Dr. Wills preached an able sermon in Mr. B.lily’s Church in the morning, to a large and deeply interesting congrega tion. The Doctor is better known in Albany than most of the other ministers, and whenever it is announced that he will preach, crowds gather to listen to him. A wish tor his early return here has been frequently expressed in mu ll' aring. In the evening he preached an eloquent sermon tn the Presbyterian Church on “Busy here and busy there.” In the Methodist Church Mr. Nal! r of Columbus, preached in the tno-rniug a most el"qneiit sermon, and in the after noon the children of the Methodist and Baptist Sunday-schools uni'ed with the Presbyterian Sunday schools, filling the church to tho utmost capacity to hear Mr. Nall. '1 his meeting is regarded as one of the most pleasant ever held by this Presby tery, tifed kind recollections remain both with the visitors and those who had the pleasure of entertaining them. —Albany Nubs. «@wThe Muscogee Mills of C >lum bus will tv* in (nil blast in a day or two with 40,000 spbodlef. *vimi me Bluff tiny Times. Negro Jurors. A majority of the grand and petit }«- •ors drawn for the next term of our Jireurt and Gity Oonrts are negroes.— This is lhe first trial they have had in his capacity hi-re and it is to be hoped hat tire experiment will prove eatisfac ory to interested parties. A similar result of the ‘drawing’ on Dallas county, suggested the following which we copy t'rouv the Southern Argus : Seaborn Piaitaiiburg, ‘colored citi -ten’of Selma, in ihe twinkling of an •ye finds himse.f not less famous than iis f;»tnoiis/couiitryiii' j n in the Senate. But yesterday obscure, unknown, un friended, unhonored, Hare of back, «-mp y of stomach, With no thought highei ban his bread, no aspiration nobler than to go to the polls at the bidding of his loyal league masters anil to vote as 'hey directed, the probate judge, she? ff, and clerk of the county, iu the dis targe of their sworn duty, found him esteemed in the community for his in tegrity, fair charact- r, and sound judg ment,’ and ‘competent’ to discharge the futies of a petit jumr, and dragged Him from beneath the shadow under which iie had rested and thrust him forward into the bright light of such immortal i»y as rbe blessed spirit of radicalism vjsits upon its ignorant devotees. From his hoe to the jury bench, thence to the photograph gallery, thence to all parts of the world —this is the way Seaborn Pluttenlmrg went; in testimony whereof we submit from the Omaha (Neb) Herald the following careful description of a life-like picture of the Seaborn aforesaid as fi v some time past he has adorned the precincts of the circuit court ot Dallas county in' this city : ‘We are under many obligations to a leading law firm of Selma, Alabama, for a sweet scented photograph of a re constructed Alabama juror. It is a picture of a Selinu darkey, who having been translated by the magic power nl Northern Philanthropy and the diabol isms of m:un-truoUoß, has become a professional juror in that place. ‘The picture is highly eo npitmeni wy to the artist, and i* exceedingly life-like. The impre-sion of the nose would seem, to be perfect. Its wings must have been aiding hi an expiratoiy effort at the moment the impression was taken, since for true L’ongro flatness and breadtn, it is represented as a Very rare protuber ance. The detachments of isolated olus ters of wool that seem to ornament the cranial tumor of this interesting subject are the only delenoes which this curi ous brain conformation eej iy*, while straggling tufts of a less kinky article adorn the sides of the face, as though the owner with his sweet glands in unu sal activity, had just come out of a wool carding machine. The photograph cer tainly displayed great skill in getting these piliferous elongations, but not more dian in catching the real African wrinkles of a face which, for :I th *t speaks the animal, takes the shine off from any baboon which was ever impor ted. “Great skill must have been displayed also in getting tlie peculiarities of the dress of this interesting citizen. It seem* to be as tine an assortment of rags its ever encased a specimen of the rose, and the artist lias taken it to the last latter. The c<>a' is buttonless, of course but has a single fastening, which we take to be secured by a piece of hemp. Peering through this garment, and also through tlie remains of wlmt was once intended for a pair of pant.*, are tin white fringes of another that evidently has a hard duty to perform. The pants are as buttonlesa as the coat, and the picture shows that but for tlie cross legged attitude of the colored brother, it might contain a serious reflection up on his modesty. The “counterfeit pre sentment” is said by those to whom we are uuiobted lor it, to be a, p I'fect like ness,’ and they say, that to get t aken, ‘‘ho went straight from the jury box tu the aitist.” Sp.cial to the Dai y Jo iruul.] Congressional. Washington, Ai*rii 12.—The Georgia bill was resumed in the Senate. Mr. Pomeroy offered an amendment providing that anew election for Sena tors and members to the Slate Legit-4 ture be held in 187*2 This was legal and ed as the utmost concession the ex treme Republicans would make. Mr. Williams offered a substitute for the Bingham amendment, the provis ona of which w--uld secure the election of a new Legislature in Georgia in Soptein. her next. This amendment also provides that until the election and qual.fi.-.ation of u new Legislature, as provided in the substitute, and the State is admitted by Congress, the government thereof shall be considered provisional only. It is considered certain that the Bing ham amendment wi 1 be st i ken out, as it is objected to by some of the ino- - Grate Republicans as being too much of a concession- It. is ex|M'Cted. however, that the sub stitute offered by Mr. Williams will be adopted. It is thought to be a eompro mine measure between the Democrats and such of the Republicans as are led by Sumner and Drake in the Senate, and Butler and his wing in the House. Bullock and his aids are bitterly on posing the Williams substitute, as it gives tire jn.ople of the State an earli. er chance to change the State govern ment, than was provided for by the original Butler bill. Should the House bill pass, with the Bingham amendment stricken out and the Williams substitute inserted, it will vitia c all the Senatorial elections that have occurred in the Georgia L- gisla tine, and k epUie State from represen tation in the lower house of Congress until further action by Congress. or The Brunswick Appeal Rtates that, on last Tuesday, the marsh land, comprising some 500 acres, lying in front of the coast side oi the city, was sold for taxes and expenses. There being no bids until the whole body was offered, bidding became spirited, anti was finally knocked off at $2 500 to Henry Clews, of New Yoik, and 6. Momford, of YVaynesville. Tpe Oldest Kdifor. —John Saxton is the oldest editin’ in the United States, having published tho Canton (Ohio) Re pository for fifty five consecutive years. His story is remarkable in that lie has never been absent a whole day from his office in that time.

Proghcs*. —An Gain minister of the* Gospel, socalied, refused to baptize a child whose parents desired to give it then ante of VaUundigliuiii. That’s the sort of loyalty that the devil makes fritters of. — Aaj'nta Cwntitatiomlid. The tfuiaifiy GdhJ&ramated- 1 Well the negro has become * .polifc. cal fact. President Grant went oat «*1 his way on Wednesday, to send a message into Congress, announcing that the Fif teenth Amendment had b*et» ratified by the proper number of States, and be come a part of the Constitution of the United States ami must be ol»eyed as such Instead of this event, the ratifi cation of the Amendment, hieing the grandest e|M>ch in American history, we look upon it as the most unfortunate, ad the most humiliating. We see nothing to be proud of, nothing in it to be grateful for. Three quarters of a million of negroes have had the ballot placed in their hands without their knowing how to twe it. With the ex* eepthm t>f one here and there who has obtyjimd an education, and will be able to vote with understanding, the great mass of the new voters are in the most debased condition, and governed by all the brutal instincts of their race Take the Southern negroes as a body and an equal number of bahboon* or monkeys are about u» competent to exercise the rights and duties of citizens. This great mass of raw material has been thrown into the body poii'ic without the leatt preparation. It would not l*e more inconsistent to swoop up thu wild CotnuQclies of the plains and march them in a body to the ballot box, than this enfranchising the negroes. The natural consequence of giving the bal lot to this class of persons will be to greatly increase political corruption, now already at a fearful height. They will be in the market to the en rol of the highest bidder, and will be as much a marketable article as catte in the shambles. Their very position will giv,. them a controlling influence in Ameri can polities ami their numbers will en able them to decide popular elections that are- not even close Almost any price will be paid for their support, and unless we sire very much mistaken in «>ur view of things, their votes will control the dt-siines of the country. The view taken by some, that in a short time, like the whites, the blacks wid <ii vide their political allegiance between the two great political parties of the country, we do iu t consider sound Some ot the more mtelligent among them may do this, but thu great mass are too ignorant and debased to follow political convictions. They will follow leaders instead, and those who will ca ter most to their passions, ami will receive then support. Tile' country will soon find that there will rise up it class of mulatto politicians, with enough white blond in their veins to in ike them shrewd, unscrupulous, and ambitious, who will control their black brethren. The party that bids the highes will get lhe-e Airman allies. Then tlie whites must not ftmget that negro voting leads to negro office holding—which has ul ready coma to pass—and negro officers in tlie army and navy. This political equality will gradually lead to social equality, for in truth it has already come Ur that, since the President of the United Mates gives up his private box at the theatre to a party of negroes. If demagogues cultivate the negro politi cally, they will not hesitate to cultivate him socially. Part of the scheme ol the extreme Radicals is to degrade the white race to a level with the hegro, and it looks Very much as tlnrugh they would succeed. If the present genera tion does not, their children will, realize the great evil that negro suffrage will do the country. If the roc-asme was taght and proper in itself the man. ner iu which the Amendment was rati fied ought to e >nd< inn it with every Imnest man. It was thittst down the throats ot the American people at the point of the bayonet. Aust i* Lor Rus sia know no more t)r..nni i.l act. Bui lor the exercise of military despotism there had been no F iteontli Amend ment. But it is too late to resist us en forcement, and tlie peuj lc must accept the Amendment and the consequences which are sure to follow. —Doylestown Democrat. The Ahvaxt.vgks of Advertising.— The shrewdest business men fn tbe world ever have availed themselves of the facilities offered by the press for placing their business b -fore the public. The result has been, without exception, largely to their advantage. Indeed, a huge and successful business can hardly be conducted now without frequent communication with the public through liberal advei tisemeiit. Os course, it is our interest to say so, but is it any the less the truth because we say it? An adverti semeiit is certainly an invitation from a manufacturer or trader to the public to give him a call, and the small outlay which it involves cannot possibly be any great consideration to a business tnan. As the spring season in all de partments has op- nedwith a prospect of good and continued trade, our mer chants, manufacturers, «t«., will «J course, give heed to this.
