Sav., Sep. 30, 4 p. tn. —One Bratlly
u Boston mulatto, lias been several
times arrested by the military and civ
il authorities for swindling negroes and
exciting disturbances. He bad a gath

groes, mostly from the country, to'day.
In the course of his harangues against
tho white men and in favor cf the diss
tribution of lands, the conservative
negroes interrupted him, when a me>
lee occurred. A large police force
charged through the crowd. The
military came to their aid, and tegeth'
or cleared the square. Muskets brought
in by large bands of country negroes
were taken by the police and turned
over to the military. A large propor
tion of the colored population disap
proves Bradley, and threaten to assess
(sinate him. Tho entente eordiale bes
tween tho city government and the
military, gave great satisfaction to all
classes "xcept ignorant adherents of
Bradley.

Agent for the City of Savannah, to receive
and receipt for advertising and subscriptions
to the Southern Enterprise.
WANTED.
Those two Orders issued by the
Freedman’s Bureau, of Thomasville
one to .Mr. A. B. Clark, of the Board
of Registration, and tho other to iMr.
Daniel A. Ilorne, forbidding, upon the
applicationn of those two citizens, the
colored men on their farms to wurfc on
the public roads.
NOT REMOVED.
The rumor current in town yester
day that Gen. Pope, had removed the
Mayor and Council of Savannah, is
not confirmed by the city papers to
day.
CONVENTION OR NO CON
VENTION.
We have seen nothing yet to con
vince us of the wisdom or propriety of
voting for the Convention, on the
contrary there is much to convince us
of the utter folly and imprudence of
such a court c. As the Districts arc
arranged by Pope for the election,
there will undoubtedly be a black or
Radical majority, destined to control
the State for evil to the white South
ern people, and we will never dignify,
by the sanction of our vote, such an
illeijal assemblage of Radical asses
j and ignorant blacks.
NO TAX, NO VOTE.
I It lias been brought to our attention
that wlii’e only about 700 colored men
have given in their taxes in Thomas
county, more than twice that number
have registered to v tc at the coming
election. The coloied people may not
be aware that the laws of Georgia give
the right to vote to those only who
have paid the legal taxes demanded of
them. Yet this is true. The mana
gers of the election are authorized to
administer to every man, who offers to
vote, tho following oath, which we
copy from the Act of the Legislature
of Georgia, passe! in 1866;
“1 swear that 1 have attained I lie ago of
(wcnly one years; dial. 1 am a citizen of l he
United Slates, and have resided for the
lasi two years in this Slate, and for tho
last six months in this county, and have
considered and claimed it as my home, unit
/men paid all ley a t luxes demanded of me, and
which I have had the opportunity of pay
ing agreeable to law, for the year proceed
ing this election : So help me God.”
According to this law there are
! about 760 colored men registered in
j Thomas county who tiro not entitled
to vote at ibo election, because they
have not given in their taxes and will
in t pay them. Tho Froedtnan’s Bu
reau will not, be able to relieve them,
because the Bureau cannot set r.sido
the laws of 'he State. General Pope
claims the right to sot aside tho laws
of the Stale, hut nil the 'aws aro in
force until set aside, ana this law has
not been set aside. It will, tiicl'T
bo enforced, and we advise those color
ed voters, who have not given in their
taxes to do so without delay, that tlioro
may bo no legal objection to their vo
ting. When white men refuse to pay
their taxes, the white men refuse to let
them vote, and the colored men must
adopt tho same principle if they wish
to make a distinction between good cit
izens aid bad. It is not right for
those who p at/ no taxes to govern those
who pay all the taxes, as they will do
if allowed t.) vote; and those colored
citizens, who have dono their duty by
giving in their tuxes, should see to it
that tho rest shall do the same or lose
their right to vote.
Th ose taxes are absolutely necessa
! ry to bo paid, to keep up the State Go
| vernmotit, to keep up the roads and
] bridges, court house and jail, to feed
| the poor, both black and white in the
| county, and for many other purposes
I of importance to all good citizens and
■ laboring men, and lie who refuses to
j bear his part of the burden is not a
I good citizen, lias no lovo for the pros
perity of tho community, no charity
for tho pour, and no Christianity.—
Ought such a person he allowed to
vote, and hy his vote control the good
men of the country ? Tlioro is no sen*
siblc colored tuati but who will answer
:no Then let us act on this principle
i in tho coining election, and say to all
j who refuse to pay taxes, whether white
i or black, you cannot vote until you
j have complied with ti e law.

What is Treason—Who is Re
sponsible.
We deal more in conclusions than
with Pacts, when we meet with con.
duct which the common judgment of
mankiud pronounces intrinsically
wicked and unjustifiable. When the
South precipitated the late rebellion
upon us we prepared at once to meet
it with arms and crush it with arms
The fact of rebellion removed all nec
essity for inquiring into its alleged
causes, and during its existence made
it impossible even to consider the aci
tual grievances, if any, of the parties
thereto. What was thus put in issue
was the government of the Constitu
tion —the safety of the State ; and
that was superior to all else. Jt was
treason in its inception ; it had, how
ever, the magnitude and the bounda
ries of Stale action, it was a jo ver
bal combination of hostile forces, with
broad, fixed limits, conducted under
the usual forms of public law. We
felt obliged to treat it as a public re
bellion. Humanity requirul it, the
welfare of our armies required it, tlie
highest national policy demanded it ;
fur we were strong in numbers, res- up
ces and patriotism, and so we could
! afford to blond generosity with power,
| and magnanimity with triumph
I What was sought by the rebellion
was the dismemberment of the Union
and the overthrow of its Constitution.
It was an open, manly warfare, con
duct'll by ail the loams ol regular
government. Its purposes were pro
claimed to the world. This was the
issue. When tried by arms it was
utterly defeated, arid the defeat was
followed by immediate and universal
submission to the authority of the
government of the Constitution. The
government of the Constitution was
our only authority, and the only nu.
thoriiy that was sought to be set aside
by the rebellion. Mark what follows.
V\ lien armed opposition bad been
put down, the end of the war officially
proclaimed hy the President, and eve
ry link in the chain of tho considera
tion restored to its place, Congress,
i assuming supreme authority, refused
j to recognize the seceding States ns
members of the Union, imposed upon
them heavy disabilities, even to the
disfranchisement of a great, majority
of their white citizens, enfranchised
all their black people, thus transfer
ring all political power to them, and
then placed over white and black a
naked military despotism.
We want no fact in this wondciful
array of insolence and crime, but the
simple one, that Congress, which is a
thing of the Federal Constitution, has
organized despotic government any
where. That is enough That is
open handed usurpation of authority.
A free government, deriving its pow
ers from a written constitution —a
constitution which expressly provides
“that tho citizens of each Htate shall
be entitled to all privileges and immu
nities of citizens in the several States,’’
—such a government cannot give
birth to such a monster. We must
remember that when the Constitution
was adopti and all political communities
within the scope of the Union were
called "States,” so tho clause quoted
must be considered. Now let us add
the words of Burke, when speaking in
the House of Commons of the powers
of tho British Government and the'
rights of tho Colon'cs :—■
"En-.'fish authority and English lib
erty havo exactly tho same bounda
ries ; your stana.D’d can never bo ad
vanced ouo inch before your privi.
leges.”
These are pregn lit words. TIiPV
fall with crushing weight on tii.9
monster progeny of Congress called
tho Five Military Districts. 'J hey
point out the way of revolution hy the
iiisiduous hut most dangerous pto'e-a
of legislative usurpation. Can it ho
said that any of three great members
of the Government is irresponsible lor
acts wl ieh set aside the Constitution ?
If Congress maillot be impeached, is
jit, tlierelbro, beyond the obligati ms
j and restraints of law ? Is there no
power to “preserve, protect and de
fend tho Constitution ‘i* ” Mistakes
I and errors in legislation aro always
I bearable, because they are incident to
| every species of government ; but the
i creation of a military despotism within
I the common jurisdiction, the forcible
ejection from the system of its ancient
! people, and tlio induction into power
I of the emancipated blacks, are not
| mistakes, but great crimes against tho
Constitution of the Union. Is it not
a great crane to suppress tiial hy jti
jry ? Is it not a great crime to subor
i dinate the civil to the military power?
And are these crimes committed, too,
I under this Government by inesponsi
| bio parties? Is there no power to
j clioek tbo usurpation of Congress?—
Is I bat body clot lied with authority to
i set aside the Constitution which iiu
| parts to it all its legal representative
character?
| ‘And what is the i nniediato ofloct
of the usurpation to which we have
referred? Nino States are excluded
from tho federal system. They lmd
no powes to withdraw from it, Con
gress lias no power to expel them from
it, and yet they are out ol it. i’liey
are out of it hy the result of the war,
they toll us ; they are out of it by the
penalties of their treason, ontorued
upon them. NY ho says that the war
| enlarged the powers of any of the
three great members of tho Constitu
tion ? Who maintains this absurd
position thirty months after all oppo.
sition to tho Government has ceased ?
Who made Congress a judicial body
to try bv wliobsalo a whole people,
and condemn them to absolute disa
bilities? Are wo to be responsible
for a system of government that ex.
eludes utterly from it a judicial estab
lishment? When we do this, let us
at once exalt Mr, Holt to be its chief,
for to him and Mr. Stanton, more
than any other men, we are indebted
for that proscription of the civil pow>
cr which, under the Constitution, is
the State.
Preparing Cotton for Market-
The Cotton Circular, published by
Messrs. Tannahill & Cos., of New
York, contains the following excellent
advice to planters on the subject of
preparing the cotton crop for market.
Tho value of this staple causes the
manufacturer to louk closely to the
gioing, cleanliness and uniformity of
t he article, and for this reason high
grades are a'ways saleable. The pick
ing and packing s 'ason is now cluse at
hand, and the pecuniary interests of
the planter should urge him to heed
the following rules:
Ist. The careful picking and assor
ting before gining, and paitieularly to
avoid sand and loaf. Nothing, ex
eept oerhaps seed, is more object iona"
bin to the spinner than Band
2d. Great caution in ginning.
Many crops are ruined by cutting tl-e
staple. Seedy cotton is not merchant’
able, and too much care cannot be
used in keeping out motes and seed.
3d. Properly classifying the grades
before bating. Not more than one
quality should bo put iu the same
bale under any circumstances. Mix
ed packed cotton however sound, is
regarded in all tlnunaikets cd' the
world as unmerchantable, and is gen
erally sjhi at three to five cents below
the value of straight cotton. Dam
aged should invariably be packed sep.
arately, and carefully saved; it is worth
something.
4th. Liberal use of bagging and
robe is economy and pays the planter
well. Bagging should cover the en
tire bale, but not doubled. Strips can
be substituted when the cloth is too
narrow to meet. This ol’ten saves
picking, and prevents damage. Not
less than six ropes should bo put on
each Strong twine and good sewing
is important, and too olten neglected.
As the cost of draying and staring, as
well as often the freighting of a bale
weighing 450 or 506 pounds, is tho
same as a lighter one; the planter can
readily see the advantage in making
lii.s bale heavy—not less than 460 to
450 pounds should be packed in a
bale—soo pmnds profered. The ini,
tin's in full oil each should be pi only
marked by the owner before sending
to depot.
Impeachment Means Civil War.
General Hchneck, member of Cons
gross from the Dayton Dis’t, Ohio in a
speech at Dayton, on the 14th inst
devoted considerable attention to Pres
ident Johnson. The Ledger, of that
place, says the General had no hesita
tion in stating his own position and
conviction on impeachment. He said:
‘So help me Goil, / will go for that
measure on the opening of the session
in November, and wK vvu.r, put him
OUT.’
Radical members of the House ol
Congress, as well as Senators’are pub.

to that point where the threats of the
Congressional leaders and the defiance
of the 1 ’resident will necessarily pro
duce a collision between the Legisla
tive and Executive branches of the
Government, or will compel onc'party
or the other to hack squarely down.
The Radicals of Congress will have to

The Fighting Radicals.
The Herald draws the following
picture of the Radical party, showing
how rogues can fall out and honest
men get their dues. If lad philoso
phy, it is a faithful daguerrotype :
The whole turmoil and confusion
under which we are suffering come
from the Republican politicians. The
republican Congress is fighting the re
publican President; the repudlican
Routwell is denoucing the republican
( Wilson; tbo republican Butler assails
the republican Old Blair; the republi
can Wendell Phillips attacks the re
publican Fessenden ; the republican
Governor Wells abuses the republican
General Sheridan as soon as be can do
so with safety; the republican Iluririi
cult fights the republican Botts in
Virginia. In our own state the re
publican Weed is in perpetual hot
water with the republican Greeley
and every body else, uud the republi
can Fenton intrigues against the re
publican Morgan. One set of repub
lican revenue officers denounces an
other set of republican officers as
theives, and vice versa. The repub
lican Old Thad Stephens denounces
republic: n Senators and Representa
tives generally, and the whole army of
republican expectants of country post
offices are at their wits end to prevent
the republican Ben Wade from get
ting into the Presidential chair.
It is against this disgraceful 'exibi
tion that the people protest. They
have already crushed the old copper
head democracy out of exi-tefle-e, and
they are now determined to repeat the
operation on the squabling, quarrel
ing, fighting republican politicians
who are at present swearing and tear

scramble for the lion’s share of the
spoils.

Jeff. Dnvia’ "Trial.
A Richmond correspondent of the
New York Tribune, writing on the 71li
instant, expresses tho following opin
ion concerning tho approaching trial in
November of .Jeff Dav is :
A matter that has been spoken lit
tle about of late excites grave atten
tion in this immediate vicinity ; that
is tbe trial of Jefferson Davis. Some
a,"e of the be'ief there will he no trial,
and ti-’it Davis will either bo included
| m t',o tbrihc uning amnesty, or he
, will be pardoned specially by the 1 res
! idont. Others assert t.hat it never was
J intended that Davis sbou'd bo tried
i when he was released on ha.'!, and
i that ho will remain out of reach wht’re
• he is, in Canada, or go to Europe.—
| But these are mere conjeetuies, based
[on nothing more than tho peculiar
j opinions and prejudices of the parties.
From an authentic source I have rea
| son to state that Davis will be tried at
j tlie November term of the United
States Circuit Court here, and that lie
will he forthcoming at that time.
The counsel for the defence will de
clare themselves ready for trial. The
i court will signify its assent in the
same manlier. The Government will
ask for time under the pretence of bc
iu unprepared -a shift to get out of
the trial. The Court will then say it
will he in session for a consiJcrablc
period, wlii c h will afford the
Government ample time to prepare,
and if its representatives fail to pro-
I sccutc the prisoner before the term of
the Court expires, it will in that case
probably declare the prisoner dischar
ged, in tho absence of the prosecutor
Such will most probably be the pro*
uranium of tho long expected Davis
trim, and such the upshot of it in ease
--I the fadnro of tlie Government to
substantiate its charges.

I am doDe with this world; my

I have ordered that my body be

You will take measures, my dear
j Baron, so that Dr. Basch and my two

may accompany it to Europe on one
of tbe two war vessels. Over there 1
wi.-li to be buried beside my poor wife.
If tbe news of my poor wile’s death
should not prove true, my body should
be placed samewhere until tho Em
press rejoin me in death. Have the

Have also the goodness to take
measures so that tbe widow cf my
faithful companion in arms, Miramon,
can'go to Europe on one of the war

A T'ori’ifae fall.
A correspondent cd the New York
livening Post, writing from the Alps,
j says :
Yow will remember, doubtless, the
attempt of four Englishmen—Lord
Douglass, and the l!ev Mr Hudson, Mr
lladow—with the guides, Micheal Cros
! and two Twangwaldcrs, had succeeded
| after almost incredible efforts, in put
] ting their feet upon the highest puna
cle. First among men they had at
tuined the unattainable, and lull of tbe
consciousness of tlieii’ triumph had
already begun their exalting descent
But the mountain was not to be de*
seated of its prey. In a fatal moment
tbe foot of Mr. liadow slipped, the
rope, by which it is customary to lash
the travelers together,broke, and three
j oi tbe gentlemen, with tbe guide Cros,
j fell tho distance of f'-mt thousand
feet ! They wore, of course, never seen
! again; and indeed, so rapid was the
| fall, so terible tbo concussioq on the
j ice Crags below, that not a wreck, not
j a vestige of the unhappy victims was
j ever found. Those awful abyss sos
j ice had swallowed them up as effect
i nullv as the depths of tho sea swal
j lows its dead. It was no doubt afool
-1 hardy attempt, as the event proved,
I and unredeemed, like the eff-rts of an
i Agassiz, Forbes and a Ty tidal, by sci
! entiffic purporscs, and yet it is wh- 1-
ly inexplicable. 'Tlioro is an irresisti
ble faeination in these mountains, ono
that grows upon y< u, one to which
you yield as to an overpowering pas
sion, aril which, il it sometimes, like
certain desporate games, bting death,
j also an intense excitement in the pit r
j 3;iit of an exquisite rapture in ilie
j event) of success.
Where tire Majority Licit.
According to Gen. Dope’s appoint,
merit, the 95,303 whites have majori-
I tics in districts electing only 6-5 dele
gates ro the Comcnfion, whilo the
93,417 blacks have majoritis in dis
tricts electing 102 delegates!
Does General Dope pretend to s- y
that such an appointment of the voters
of Georgia is a fair aid! honest ono?
Taking the Senatorial Districts, which
were arranged exclusively with refer
ence to white voters, he has shame,
full gcrymandered the State so as to
completely crush out the white major
ity. So much for omnipotence with
out a conscience — Macon Telegraph.
