From the Quitman Banner. Pamilliar Conversation. NUMBER ONE. Ah, Mr. Editor, I wish to advertise by the year in your paper. What will lour squares cost! Fifty dollars, sir. Fifty dollars ! Why I used to get it done for thirty, before the war. I can’t pay any more now—there is no justice or reason in such high prices. V ery well, sir, if you don’t like the price let it alone. I wish to buy a pair of good sewd shoes. What is the price, "Six dollars, sir—a very nice article. Ahem ! what was the price of such shoes before the war? From two and a half to three dol lars, sir! everything in our line, you know, is higher now. Yes, sir, have you some coffee, and what is the price? We have some very nice Jave at fifty cents. Fifty cents ! What was the price before the war ? From eighteen to twenty sir. Well, Mr. Graspall, let me see some of your bleached shirting. What is the price of that ? Bleached shirting is worth half a dollar per yard, sir. Did you not formerly sell it from fifteen to twenty cents per yard ? Yes, sir: but as I before remarked, everything in our line is higher than formerly. Well, sir, I see I can’t afford to buy dry goods and groceries, but I am obliged to have some flour, bacon, and corn. What arc the articles worth? Flour is from sixteen to twenty dol lars per barrel; corn two dollars and a half per bushel, and bacon twenty eight cents per pound. Don’t you remember when I adver tised for you at thirty dollars, you sold flour at five dollars per barre', corn at sixty cents per bushel and bacon at 13} cents per pound ? Well, yes, 1 believe so. How then; do you expect me to pay from one to two hundred per cent, advance on former prices and not raise my rates ? Well, 1 don’t know, Mr. Editor, but it does seem to mo your prices aro very extortionate !! ! Reader tho above is no fancy sketch; nor does it apply to merchants alone. NUMBER TWO. Ilello ? is the Editor in ? Yes, walk in, Mr. Muggins—take a seat, sir. I just called to see about taking a paper, Squire. What aro they going at now ? Four dollars a year, sir. Four dollars ? why I never heard of such extortion. Well, Mr. Muggins, I understand you have some wheat--what do you ask for it ? Three dollars a bushel, sir. I also want some bacon. What is the price ? Twenty eight oents per pound, sir. I wish likewiso to get some corn and fodder—what aro the prices of those articles ? Corn is two dollars and a half per bushel, and fodder a dollar and a half per cwt. But hold on let us settle that newspaper affair. Can’t you let me have it for loss than Four dollars? I do not see any good reason lor ask ing more than you formerly did — which was two dollars I believe. (Editor, somewhat excited.) Tho thunder you don’t I formerly bought wheat at a dollar a bushel—you now ask three ! 1 bought baoon at 12} now you ask 20 ! 1 bought corn at 50 to 75—you now ask two dollars and a half! 1 bought fodder at 50e per cwt—you now ask $1,50 ! And soon to tho end of tho chapter. Lot us look at tho praotioal working of the thing. I offer you my paper at two dollars —'the old price—it you will pay in produce at old prices. This you decline to do, because it would take two bushels of corn, which would at the preaent price amount to five dol. lars. It would tako 4000 lbs. fodder for which you now ask six dollars. Hold on, Squire—don’t go and fur ther. Hero arc four dollars ; put down my name. I find editors are not after all as uurcasonoble as some pf the rest of us. An Opinion. —ln contrast with the puerile offorts of a sow small boor po liticians to belittle Mr. Hill we ex tract the following deserved compli ment from that able and sterling jour ttal, the New Orleans Croscont: “Mr. Hill writes well and speaks even hotter on the theme of resistance to usurpation and despotism. In his “Notes on the Situation” there are passages of splendid invoctivo against the “powers that be,” which aro hard ly surpassed by anything of the kind in the “Letters of Junius,” and his recent spceoh at Atlanta übouttda in oratorical efforts which may challenge comparison with the Suest strokes of eloquence in the phillipics of Demos thenes.” Houtljmt Enterprise r ~ L. c. BRYAN, : : : : Editor. THOMASVILLE, GA.: TUESDAY, AUGUST 6, 1867. REGISTER BY ALL MEANS. We are sorry to hear that some of our whito citizens refuse to register. As we have before stated, it may be of the utmost importance for them to vote, and unless they register, they certainly will not be permitted to vote. Let it bo remembered that we roust soon vote for Convention or no Con vention, and that a bare majority of those voting for and against the Con vention will determine the matter. It is not a majority of the registered vo ters that must vote for the Convention, in order to have a Convention of the State; but a majority of those only, who actually vote for or against the Convention. For example, 150,000 votes may bo registered in the State of Georgia, but only halt of them vote for or against the Convention, a bare majority of the half thus voting will be sufficient to hold a Convention. Every man therefore, who is opposed to the Convention should register, that he may be able to deleat the possibil ity of a Radical majority. Beside this, it will he important for all our white citizens to vote in local or coun ty and district elections, for members of the Legislature and Congress ; but unless they register they cannot vote at any of these elections. We say therefore, let every man register who can. MUSIC! What a multitude of sweet sounds, sweet associations, sweet reminiscen ces crowd upon the mind at the bare mention of the word Music. There are two other words so affectionately and so appropriately associated with it, that we are accustomed to bind all of them together in the same wreath.— Women, Flowers, Music. In these lurk all tho earthly power given, to soften and control the angry, rough hewn nature of man. They udd the electric flash to all love poetry or prose, and originate and inspire tho only true episode in man’s life of toil some reality. By the first he is at tracted, by tho second (beauty) lasoinatcd, and by the third made pas sive ; ami the three in one arc irresis tible. But wo are writing about Music. The enlightened Europeans make it a part of their education, and thu3 give to their sons and daughters tho high est polish of which human nature is susceptible. The Americans aro be ginning to sec the great benefit, and many are following tho example of tho Europeans; but thousands aro not yet far enough out of tho wilderness, or away from the frontier, to appreciate a highly cultivated taste. Some are about half-way. They have a small tasto “for tho institution,” admit all its high qualities, and even venture to place their daughters for a few terms under a teacher of Musio; but sons aro not to be thought of in the Music lino, and the daughters must make haste and learn in a few months. You must get out of this, friends. Music is a recognized scienoe, and ranks among the noblest given to man. It is the exquisite touch given by tho Grand Painter of the Universe, to adorn and make lovely the works ol His hands. We ought then to appre ciate it more. Wo should study it more, in order that wo may bo ablo to enter into and onjoy the sweetest har mony in nature. Good Musio teachers are needed everywhere, and should be patronized by all. llavo wo a good tcaoher with out patronage? Wo think wo could put our finger upon one of excellent talent, and unexceptionable character, almost entirely neglected. This should not be so, friends. Look to the in terests of your daughters-. BEN HILL REVIEWD. Ex-Gov. Joseph E. Brown is pub lishing a series of letters in tho Augus ta Chronicle if Sentinel, reviewing the “ Notes on the Situation” by B. 11. Hill. Benjamin gets some sharp thumps in tho ribs at tho hands of Joseph, but the inconsistencies of Ben jamin aro surpassed by tin blunders and inaccuracies of Joseph, so that, upon tho whole, Joseph would have done better, had ho remained silent. Benjamin, in reply has devised a small Catechism for Joseph, which if lie an swers correctly, may entitle him to a little nioro sympathy, but wo appre hend that “Ephraim is joined to his idol,’’ and will insist on fladical re construction. A NEW PARTY. The National Intelligencer says, that on Thursday morning, several dele gates from tho Pennsylvania National Union Stato Central Committee, wait ed on the President aud informed him that they wore about to organizo an independent party. The l’residont rondo a faVomblo reply, congratula tions were exchanged, and the inter view passed off vry piccasantly. The Tennessee Election, —Nashvillo, Aug. 2.—The returns so far loot up a majority for Brownlow of 17,000. — Trimble, Stoocks, Arnell, Maynard, Hawkins, Mullens, Murner and Bat tle, all Republicans, aro oleotod to Congress. Tho Republicans claim to be successful for both branches of tho Legislature [FOR TilE .SOUTHERN ENTERPRISE.] TO THE MEN OP COLOR IN THOMAS COUNTY. Number 8. In the meantime, while the Yankee emissaries were operating among you at the South, their coadjutors at the North were no less industrious in get ting up under-ground railroads, estab lishing way stations and providing agents along the road to convey you from post to post clean up to the Brit ish dominions in Canada. Let it be noted, that during all this time, the Constitution of the United States, enacted by their Delegates as well as ours, as the supreme law of the land, controlling and governing all laws re garding slavery, was in full force, and demanded their most sacred regard. Was it so regarded, or was it wholly set aside ? The above details will give you the answer, but not the whole answer; for the Yankee is as cunning and daring as he ib unprincipled and unscrupulous. They saw that the Constitution of the United States blocked any opcu proceeding to de prive the Southern people of their slaves, but on the contrary made it a high crime and misdemeanor and so lemnly forbade it. Did this arrest their proceedings, as it would have done any honest, law-abiding people ? Far from it. They went to work in their State Assemblies, altogether su. bordsnatc to the Constitution of the United Sta es in the case before us, and there passed such State Laws, and threw so many obstructions in the way of the Constitution of the U. States, as to make the provisions of that in strument, in regard to slavery, a per fect nullity. If a Planter’s slave was decoyed or carried away to one of these States, the Constitution directed that he should be returned, and the owner might go there and recover him. This was, under tho Constitution, a simple and plain proceeding. But under their State laws, it cost tho owner more time, trouble and expense, to get the negro back, than he was worth, even if lie got him at all, which he but sel dom did, as he was generally carried off by third parties while the legal inves tigation was going on. And thus the Planter, with the supreme law clearly, undoubtedly and indisputably on his side, generally lost his negro at last. This is a faithful and true exposition of Yankeo respect for the provisions of tho Constitution of the U. States and of the rights of property. Re collect that this argument has nothing to do with the moral or civil question of the right of property in slaves. — That had been determined when the Constitution was enacted by the Con vention and accepted by the several Legislatures of tho States, and was already a settled question, to which the North as well as tho South had given their sanction and deolared that it was morally right. By this palpable and open violation of the Constitution many of the slaves at the South were persuaded off, sto len and carried away from their own ers at the South to tho Northern States and to tho Canadas. This was done but a few years ago. Where are t.licso colored people now ? Alas, poor Yorick ! Not one out of twenty aro now living to tell where they are. To servo tho black man was no part or wish of the Yankee programme. To injure the whito Southerners was his wliolo desire. Tho conscquonce was, that tho colored man was carried to the North, where he has been thrust out of employ, out of society, out of houso and home, and left miserably to perish in a desolate climate, friend less and forsaken, amidst his heartless and deceptive pretended friends. Moro in the next number. Your affectionate Unole Ben. y— —*- If Grant is “ tho only man who can lead the nation from its present gloomy political night into a brighter and more effulzcnt day”—then tho American people might ns well make up thoir minds to grope in Egyptian darkness tho remainder of thoir lives, for Grant, neither by nature or edu cation, has talent sufficient to lead a freedman of ordinary intelleot through the mazes of Wobstor’s Elementary Spelling Book ! But, aside from this fact, the shame, tho pity of it, to seo Southern men, Southern newspapers, advoonting the claims of a man whoso hands are red with the blood of Southern men whoso reputation, such as it is, was made up at tho expense of Southern luyiiiliations, disasters and defeats, is indeed a s rry sight! We suggest to the editor of the Now Era that ho finish his task, complete his work, and tiill out his ticket. Wo present for his consideration the claims of Bon.

Grant and Butler? What a concentration of blockheadisni and brass—iucompoten cy and robbery—luok and cheek brutality and bcastiality—know-noth ingism and Puritanism!

Judge Nicholas, of Kentucky, on the Situation, HIS OPINION OF MR. HILL’S “NOTES.” To the Editor of the Louisville. Com riyr. —l cheerfully comply with your request to furnish for publication my opinion as to the merits of “Notes on the Situation, by Hon B. H. Hill, of Georgia.” My opinion is that they contain the most thorough, all-sufficing exposure yet made of the tyranio-1 u-urpation attempted in the territorializing acts for non-construction. A single causal reading, as they appeared from day to day in our newspapers, would not jus tify me in now saying that I coincide with all the opinions uttered or prin ciples advanced, but I do not recollect to have met with any that did not seem to be substantially, if not entirely, or thodox. If there is any thing in them, which Ido not remember, in justifica tion of the, to me, abhorrent dogma of secession, that has to be excepted from this approval. The force of the logic, the beautiful finish of the composition, the states manlike views, and the eloquent de. nunciation of tho tyranny, have re ceived my unqualified admiration. A reprint of them by the ten thousand and sent broadcast through the North, would, if anything of the sort possibly can do it, reach and arouse the Nor thern conscience. It is a most ungen erous surmise that our Northern coun trymen have no political conscience to be operated on, or are reckless of the destruction of American liberty so long as they themselves remain un scathed in the process of its destruc tion. Such an uncharitable imputa« tion is to be referred to the apathy of those who use it as their pretext for non-action ; rather than to a veritable belief in such unworthiness. Upon the radical leaders of the minority party that has got control of Congress, and upon all of their followers who are partaking or hope to partake of the spoils, all argument or rernon. strance is, of course, thrown away ; but, numerous as they are, they do not constitute near tho half of those who elected the destructives to Congress' * * * * * All such delusion (as that the recon struction scheme will restore the Union) ought now to be dispelled.— The supplementary act of the present session should effectually dispel ail such delusion, and convince every ono that the destructives have never in tended to allow any reconstruction that was not accompanied with the as sured guaranteo of their party supre macy. They will stop at nothing for tho retention of spoils and power. — They should be met, as freemen should ever moot tyrannical usurpation, by a bold, manly, denunciatory defiance, and not with the timid policy of the ostrich, who hides his head in the sand with tho silly hopo of thereby escaping his enemy. Newspaper Power. The revenues of a great newspaper are large enough to outbid any other competitor, whilo its audience is so vast and general that he who has a story to tell, or an argument to press, hurries to its columns. The only in stitution in a Republic which verges upon the monarchical, is that of an editor. If there were but a single newspaper, this would become a ty ranny, and society would be at the mercy of one man, clothed with an im palpable, irresponsible, imperious pow er, which onoio with every day of life, assuming to tear down and build up, to honor or dishonor, to reward and punish. Tho multiplication of news papers avoids this. If one editor com mits a wrong, there are twenty who will see that justice is done. While journalism is becoming a pro fession more powerful and respected than that of any other—which, in deed, embraces and fashions all oth ers—its news facilities are marvelous. Stoam and the celographic have added greatly to the usefulness of the press. Few, but those in the profession, know tho almost endless ramifications of a great newspaper. Tho editor who sits ovor his midnight lamo quietly arranging his oolumns, has his ser vants in every quarter of the world. Ilis orders are obeyed in tho domin ions of the Taicoon and tho Sultan, in tho torrid countries of South Arneri en, and on the dreamy, humid shores of Walrnssia. Ilis ministers may be found closeted with Count Bismarck, or riding on tho trail of the merciless Indians. And so through overy branch of business and in every relatiou oi life. —A. Y. Tribune. Radical Impudonee. —llunnicull, tho vile leader of tho Radical party in Virginia, was a negro trader before the war, and had a slave pen in Richmond. Winters, ono of tho Radical loaders in Tennessoe, purchased, some years ago, says tho Knoxville Register, a colored woman at a family salb, and afterwards learning that she was born free, bor rowed money from a neighbor to beur his oxpenses in carrying her South to sell her, which he did. These are the men who are decoying the negroes into midnight leagues and swearing them to bear allegiance to them and their clan. Winters, like Brownlow, now professes the tenderest love for the poor negro. richest endowments of tho mind are temperance, prudence and fortitude. Prudence is a universal virtue, which enter* into the oompisi tion of all the rest; and where she is not, fortitude loses its name and na ture. — Voltaire. g&'Prentice says of Hill’s speoch : “It is a remarkable speech. It is stirring, splendid and scathing. It is a stinger and a stunner. And withal it is as sound as tho Constitution and joyal as the Union.” ;[by keoosst.] A MEMORY. I knew a fair young girl. With a spirit mild and tree, As the bird that flits o’er the dimpled wave, Then away to the wildwood flee. And she seems like a wreath of mis!, As she moves thro’ the summer bowers, With a step too floatingly soft to break, The sleep of the dreaming flowers. Her eye is bright and clear, As the depths of a shaded spring, And beauties name on her brow is set, On her cheek its signet ring ; And her voice is like the souu t Os a wave through the twilight leaves, Or a Peri’s tone from a moonlight cloud, In the hush of the summer eve. Along her temples pale The blue veins seem to flow, In their winding course, half seen, half hid, Like streams in a field of snow; And her shining tresses there Their beautiful light unfold, Like a painted cloud when the sunlight lifts Its shadowy wings of gold. To me each thought of her Is a gleam of light and love; A gentle dream sent down to earth, From the holy depths above. ’Tis a blessed sunbeam cast On affliction’s cloud of tears ; A star o’er the waste of a weary heart, A bow on the sky of years. P. Thad. Stevens Despairs of Im peachment. The remarks of Mr. Stevens in the House after the read ing of the veto message, briefly refered to some days ago, aro significant. They are reported in full as follows : Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, said. I agree precisely with the eloquent speech of ray amiable colleague across the way, [Mr. Randall,] that we can not impeach the President ot the Uni ted States. But I say to our friends on this side who are urging that meas ure, that they are urging it in vain.— The result of my motion the other day clearly disclosed that; and without at tempting to make disclosures, I under take to say that there are unseen agencies at work in this country which will prevent the impeachment of the President. 1 have taken some pains to understand the composition of the House and the composition of the Senate, and I am quite certain that there are enough of persons in the Houso, first to prevent the presentation of articles of impeachment; and, se condly, that there are enough of per sons in the Senate, if articles of im peachment were voted, to pievcnt tho conviction of the President. So that I repeat, any attempt to impeach the President will be vain and futile. It is impossible to pierce the panoply which surrounds the White House. Radicalism Weakening. —A con vention of the i‘ Union party ” of Orange county, Indiana, was held the other day, by which some very signifi cant resolutions were adopted. Two of them are as follows: Resolved, That while we rejoice at the downfall of slavery and the estab lishment of universal liberty through out the Republic, we do not believed it possib or desirable to establish social or political equality between the black and the white races. As citizens of a loyal State in the Union we claim the right to establish such laws in re gard to suffrage as to us shall seem best calculated to secure the harmony and prosperity of our people. Resolved, That all attempts to es tablish either social or political equal ity by legislation only tends to disturb the peace of society and corrupt the purity of the ballot-box. Therefore we aro in favor of the soperation of the races by colonizing the negroes of the United States in somo locality conge nial to their well-being, as the means of a final settlement of this vexed question in American politics. Generosity of the Jews. —The Jews are often spoken of as extremely pe nurious and money-loving. We ad mire their (spirit of independence and the indefatigable industry of the race. To tho needy of their own class they are most beneficent. In consequcnoe, who has ever seen an Israelite beg ging ? We already leave recorded the liberality of the small congrega tion in this city towards the purchaso of the old Presbyterian church build ing to be used as a public school, the buying of which is trow a fixed fact. In the fcvoutliern Baptist Convention, recently held at Memphis, liev. Mr. Renfro, of Alabama, stated that, on his expressing a desire to attend the session, but his inability to do so on account of money, a leading Jew of his town made up the requisite funds from a small synagogue and presented them to him in such a way that they could not be refused. In all liberal enterprises the Jews contribute as freely as any other sect. Wo know they do in our city. Where they fail to do so is the rare exception, not the rule.— Columbus Sun. ‘•Tub Church of the Stran gkrs,” New York: Rev. Dr. Deems, Pastor. —Strangers visiting New York aro rospcctfully informed that a congregation exposed of Chris tians of the different denominations has been organized under the pastoral charge of Rev.
