I'loin Savannah, 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 ering here of some thousands of ne 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. Savannah, Sept. 30, 7 p. m.— City all quiet. Disturbances tbreated be' tween country and conservative city colored people to-night. Gen. Ander son, Chief of Police, has given orders to arrest every disorderly person, re gardless of color or politics. '1 he mil itary remains under arms, hut their services will probably not be needed. A large number of arrests of rioters have been made. Several ringleaders will probably be sent to Port Pulaski by the military. Baltimore Market.

L. C. BRYAN, : : : : Editor. THOMASVIIjLB, GA.: TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1807. OT’Mr. X. U. Stacisuck is our authorized 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.

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. Gon. Kirby Smith. Now a citizen of Louisville, and | President of the Southern Telegraph t'ouipuuy, lias been chosen Principal i of the High School, of the Universi ty of the South, at Scwunco in the Cumberland mountains. Tire-location of this University is a place of great natural beauty, and but for our Into war the Institution would now have been in operation. It was designed j to be tbo great Instil ion of tiro South and was nably endowed by the Epis copal Church. Registration in Georgia. The Era has been credibly inform'. ! cd that, tbo registration of voters in Georgia lias been concluded. The re sult is as follows: \\ bole no. of white voters, 95,338 “ “ colored “ 93,390 Total no. of voters registered, 185.72N Maj airy of white voters, 1,948 The details will he made out and supplied in a few days, which will not vary much cither way from the above. [Kilim the Washington Intelligencer] (the Presidents Organ), Sept. SI. 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. liely commuting themselves to the im peachment and deposition of the Pres ident. And matters have now conic 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 yield, or tho President. We can hard ly sec how a violent collision is to he avoided. The Radicals are bound to impeach Kir. Johnson or be the laugh. ingMitock of tho whole country. Tii- y have threatened it so much’ that they inu.st go a head ; or acknowledge them selves have been playing fast and louse with ,‘hecharacter of tho Congress and tbo Executive without reason thcrclbr. Right for Cnco. We are glad to see our perverse and cranky friend. Col. Win. 1! Gan.'ding, letter known ns ‘The Roaring Lion id Liberty,’ has turned up tight foronco. lie addressed the people at 1 lolmes ville last week, and a correspondent of the Savannah News ,\ Herald thus sketches briefly his remarks:— Tele gragh. The Colonel is very much opposed to a eon volition, and advises his friends to tit at with contempt tho conn-els of a political set of demagogu s who would h ive them Ink tho hand that grasps the dagger to inllict. a mortal blow on constitutional liberty, in order that they may, by such infamous and disgraceful acts, bring themselves into pi litical power upon the wrecks of their country’s past greatness; ami says that confiscation, with all of its attending evils, is far more desirable than reconstruction under the Badical programme of negro suffrage and pro scription. Foreign Items. 'l'he gun maker Snecht, of Berlin lias received a Chassopot nun simis lar to those adopted in the French ar my, and experiments have been made with if which, according£to tl o /Wa Gazette, havo furnished important re sults. Ohassepot is certainly superi or to the Prusian needle gun. Com petitive essavs have been made with tho two. More than filly officers of all arms witnessed them. The Cling sopot was in the hands of M Spocht, the needle gan in tin so of one of the best marksman in the garrison. The arrangement was to fire with each for one minute. The needle-gun was the Gist; it fired eight rounds and struck tho target eight times-- The two guns were afterward fired together during In-ls a minute; the needle-gun discharged three shots, the (dhassopot live. Six of them wore found to h ive -.(ruck the target, hut from which of the guns was not known 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 ing at each other in a disgraceful scramble for the lion’s share of the spoils. Highly Important fa-om Italy and Romo. Florence’ September 24, 18 .7. General Garibaldi was arrested today, near a small town named Azevalvaga, by order of King Victor Emanuel. Garibaldi was engaged in perfecting Lis plan of invasion of tbo Pontifical ! territory, which embraces the idea of ; an immediate march on Rome, after i which’ if successful, the Eternal City ( was to bo proclaimed the Capitol of ! united Italy by the leader of tlic par |ty of action/ His intentions and de | sign were made known to bis adhe rents, and consequently to tho King's government in this city, hy the circu lation amongst the revolutionist of a very infiamatory address, dated and in tied from Arrczo on -Sunday last, the 22d instant. The issue of this revolutionary pas per placed King Victor Emanuel in a difficult position By the recent con vention with France, under which the trench troops evacuated Rome, he is bound to maintain the Papal territory hoc horn fillibuaterism coming from Italy, even at ths cost of offending bis progressive friends among the people. Tho King Inis executed bis treaty obligation with fidelity. lie replied to Garibaldi’s address by a royal I’roc ! Tarnation, circulated also on Sunday, in which he denounced the Garibal -lian movement, cautioned bis subjects against aiding or taking part in it,and declacd bis resolvo to arrest and rig-. orously punish’ any of bis people who disobeyed him, as well as others arress ted on the soil of Italy engaged in a crinio ‘against, the law of nations.,. By virtue ol this proclamation Gars ibaldi has been arrested and from this act may ensue the settlement of the long vexed question Italy-Roman and temporalities questions. 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.

My physician, Dr. Basch, will have my body brought to Vera Cruz. He will be accompanied only by my two ser vants, Gull and Tudos. I have ordered that my body be transported without any pump or so lemnity to Vera Cruz, and that on board the vessel that is to bring it to Europe no unusual ceremony take place.

Maximilian. 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.
