The bill territorializing the South ern States, or reducing them t,o the condition of conquered provinces, hav ing passed both houses of Congress by sufficient majorities to render the Pre sident’s veto ineffective, wo may as well survey our situation and look rit things as they are, cr as they shortly will Ip. Having declared the 'pft'sfint governments of the States illegal, and disfranchised all the white population of the same, in any wise capable of devising or sustaining a goveiument, the same act renders ineligible to any office of honor or profit, any person who was directly orindivectly engaged in the rebellion againstthe Government. This is a sweeping stroke of the Radical scythe, and strikes down the entire Southern white population, and appa> rently raises up the negro in their stead. Hut the negro cannot be rotted vp to the level of the whites in any parti c it. : lar whatover, except in privilege, or 1 Government rights. The Radicals know this as well as wc of the stricken South. They do not expect the hcqro 1 to go to Congress, nor to fill the State Legislative halls, but they expect to import men into the South of their own i sentiments', to fill all the offices and hold the reins of Government in the I States at their command. In carry ing out this object they intend to ntafo* use of the negroes right, to vote. The negro will be told of lift high estate, but he will be theVtuHefcr'in tlib fitltf. The Mhilcs then-, afo to l>(T*pnt down and the negroes" elevated to rank.— Either negroes of* Tiudiral whites are to fill all Clio offices of the South, —no other result can lmi anticipated by the masses of the Southern people. The Judges of all our Courts, if we arc al lowed Civil Qourt#. with die-ir juries, will bo negroes or Radical agents. At present, there are not men enough of the Radical stripe in the South to fill these offioes. and no .syuaAje an, North or South, will suppose the ne groes would knowbow to take a single step toward organizing a State Govern' luent, or even establishing peace and order. We may therefore. Confidentl y expect very shortly, a great influx of Radicals in the Southern States to set tle, in order to acquire the right to j vote and Imld office The great body of the Southern while people have been rebels, and cannot participate in any of the reconstruction proceedings. TTlufy are strangers (not in a strange land) — but in their own homes. What justice could they expect in such courts '(■ Where turn for Telie-f from oppression ? Their enemies have adjudged them guilty after JiM pardon, and without trial. Shall Southern men and women have any thing tq do with G-tt/fo- tin der such an organization? We say nay. Let us forthwith settle our dif ferences df opinion, and all our law suits, and have no use for the Court house, until a returning sense of jus tice and inagnanirtriiy whsll convniee the Northern peop'e of their terrible mistake. If we have differences annm: us which would now go before the Courts, let ns bring in two or threo iltsinterorted neighbors, j)nd abide their decision, Lee of ami with out giving any further trouble to our friends or their agents, who Inure al ready devoted so much of their time, mind and money, to our jvy. iteration and social benefit. TEXAS CORuESrON DiINC U For the in for motion of his old I'siends’ and i'cllow-citizfenfr, we phblhh to-day, an interesting letter from Texas, by Gen. Thomas J£. Blaojcshear, who, it i# well known here,'resides in the very heart of the best portion ol that great State, and whose mature judgment and experience, will be regarded as suffi. cient evidcnco.of the stu.to of affairs in Texas. We will take prdosuro at a future" time in publishing extracts from the Texas Almanac, tlmt our readers may become acquainted with the advanta ges offered to emigrants in the West, but we do not wish it understood that we favor emigration. Every man will know his own ipt.orc.sts when he sees the facts published, blit lot those who have no homes, seek them wherever the best advantage# appear. We hope to sec tho population of Georgia dou bled in the next ton years, and that of Thomas County trebled in live, by the influence of railroads and white labor. Wc give the n’raroes ten years to" dis appear entirely as laborers. Let those who doubt watch the course of events. FOOD FOR INFANTS.

T do not wish to lake from my good old native Slate a single useful eitisoti, but to let that hardy, industrious, laboring class, who are toiling upon the old worn out, poor lands of Georgia, for a. bare subsist ence, know wh*rc they get good land on easy terms, in a healthy coun try, where they cm make a good liv ing and suJfSicthiug t.o spare, in return for their honest labor. From my own observation and tho best information 1 can obtain, the freed negroes'aro not working so well this year, even as •they did tho last. All werg loth to make contracts,.and many arc yet loafing about the towns and villages undetermined what to do. A large number have squatted about on little places, to farm for themselves; nuicli suffering will bm the eonsc 'qnonce. A great many plantations of the richest lauds in our State wilt'go uncultivated, for want,of. laborers. 1 have been too long accustomed to good order and discipline, to nut up with tho idle, lazy, anil thriftless habits of the freed negro. 1 have iftt up my home plantation (within one mile of Wavusota) into small farms, of from | forty to siaty-aorcs, and rented them* ;to while men. My plan is to build •:i eopilortable dwelling, cook lnuise, vgmoko houzc au-1 eorji crib, and diet a well for each family- To give tb.-tu ground enough for a fiunifv garden, tree of rgnt, to prfy for splitting the rpilsto onej-eso the yard, horse lot and tft-w pen, and pay for any qther pr-inii pent uupioveweul they may put upon the pltwie.

I told them would be glad to have them do so, and tefoi hethe fn-st cohbvinfi'ing, and l would pay them either money or me»t. The cold mormu* 4 came, but not a single negro. 1 saw tlfcm a few days after, aud they told me, it. was too cold to tcor/.\ I went down to town, where there wore som# two bun. dred laying about, and succeeded in getting only Jour. A\ lien lie- next col-l spell came on, I let>“ nig" afone, but sent around to my renters'and asked them to come and help uie kill hogi». Li an hour fourteen men aud boys walked into the yard. We all ! pitched in (myself aud boys among the ! foremost); Sous the hogs were sqdeal ing, and by night, fortyd’onr were ■ slaughtered and put away ; my daugh ter cooking breakfast and dinner for us. I thanked God I was independent of the lazy, thriftless freed negro. I have cut up my river plantation J info three farms, and rented them to parties, wlro will, this year, work them with jicgrpcs* I have arranged the j houses so that they can hereafter be i ; used by white men. I understand j many otlfhV large planters will pursue j j the same plan next year,'and in three j ■, years, nearly every large jdantatfon iu i I the cotton and sugar regions ih this j i State, will be tint up into small4’afms, j j worked by white men, and the negro j I shuffled out. * * I Movers arc passing by my Ifnusc | nearly every day, going West, and J j hear of large numbers of immigrants | , from tho ol'd Stales, coming into evory part of our State.

Last sea son thefc were seventeen thousand bales of cottyn shipped from Lfos place You can form some idea from this, of the growth and busirfbss of our towns springing un on tho Railroads.

First, on account of its prevailing acid condition, and secondly however finely,the flour he ground and apparently dissolved by boiling, it, is never rcfdfy chemically dissolved, hut requires a con dderablo digestive action to assimilate its nutritious j ro perties and dispose of the insoluble, indigestible residue, which amount's to more than twenty per cent. 8. That foycn if cow’s milk hid farinflcipus preparations comhinod com . ta'vired nil the*substauges necessary to sustain the nutrition of a growing in fant it remains still a question of the utmost Importance in what relative proportions they are to be mixed. If onp of the essential ..components of this mixed milk and flour diet he present in too small quantity, a deficiency of nutrition will take place, or the. child must consume a much larger quantity of food than it requires in order to ol tain etiotfgb of the one substance, which is insufficiently supplied , if, on tbe Contrary, one element be too large ly present, it will not be digested, and only sqrre to overload the stomach and produce disoesc. lToi'essov Liebig asserts that one* half the deaths of infants that, are brought up by hand may bo ascribed to tho use of the customary pap. It becomes, therefore, a question of fjvc first 'importation to disco ver some reino • dy for this great evil. llis researches liavo satisfied him that .cow’s milk :yid food contain all the ingrcdiflnG necessary' to sustain thq nutrition of a growing child, but these must be adapted to j tbe weak digestive powers of the hi. flint. Thjs ho profenseHto accomplish first, by Tendering the fiutrive parts of the .farinaceous ‘mi’nstanecs- perfectly soluble; secondly, hy ypita.tijjg. ps nearly as possible, the quantity and proportions of,bk>©d-forming and' re spintive elements contained .in the mother’s milk ; thirdly, hy correcting the slight aerd reaction of the cpw’s milk by t he addition of a small amount of Aftrbottfltc of potassa. XJi o* first obj-: cfe that is, of render ing the nutritious parfo of the starchy food soluble, is attained hy the appli cation.of tho;well-finoU-ii property of malt, when mixed with amilaoeous foirtifles of flour tq.convcrt them into soluble dext rine and a species of sugar, while the albuminous portions and the phosphates become ‘dissolved. The filtrate from this solution is n clear, transparent liquid, and all the indi gestible, fibrous matters arc caught upon the filter. The liq-uhl contains the nutritive parts (if the flour and of tfio limit, which require very little di gestive action of tho stomach to assim ilate. . •To find out tho correct proportions in which the dissolved ingredients should bo added to cow’s milk to com plete its nutritive effects aod remedy its deficiencies, JTofessor Liebig has cSrefully Compared the respite of tho analysis of human milk, cow’s milk and farinaceous substances, and he lias come to the conclusion that a mixture of the soluble parts of one ounce of wheat flour and one ounce of malt*with ten ounces of milk and sixty drops of a solution containing eleven per cent, of the carbonate of potassa, will ap proach as near as possible to the nu tritive value of mother’? milk; tor, says be, human milk contains opg part ol' blood-forming substances to tlirce eiglilh ports of substance? which sus taki respiration atid animal nei.t.
