Referring to the suspension before conviction he said he will resist it with all the powers which the Constitution furnishes for its own protection. In the cabinet circumstances neces> sitated a change, and before the meet, ing of Congress a change would be made, and be will neither consult tror be governed by party cliques, but draw around him men of ability, uerve and patr otism. Alluding to Gen. Sherman, he said he will be here between the 10th aad 17th of November, in ample time fur the discharge of any duty, however responsible, which may devolve upon him. Homicide. The Jacksonville Mercury contains an account of a homicide at Cedar Keys, on Saturday last. Dr. A. K. Hodge, who resides at Withlaooochce Hernando county, had some time previously a misunderstanding with a Mr. Leak, formerly an editor at Thura asv lie, Ga., but on meeting him at Ce dar Keys, was disposed to act gentle manly and frieni ly toward the latter, when he was insulted by the same, and his pashion getting the bet'ei ot his nature, he kicked Mr. L. twice, once in the side, which resulted in his death about three houis afterward. An in quist was held upon the body of Mr. Leak, and a verdict rendered ‘Death by Providential causes.’ [A veiy strange verdict, we must say] Dr. Hodge was arrested by the military, and altcrward turned over to the givij authorities, when he was held t) bail in the sum of one thousand dollars to answer to a charge, before the Superi or Court, of‘involuntary homicide.’ ‘I say, Jonee, how is it that your wife dressis so magnificently, and you always appear out at the elbows V— ‘You see, Thompson, my wife dress' cs acurding to the Gazette of Fasnion, and I dress acording to my ledger.’ i Jiodjrcrn €ittcrpri.sc ~ ! semi-weekly.TJ L.

Starbuck is oar authorized Agent for the City of Savannah, to receive and receipt for advertising and subscriptions to the Southern Enterprise. COUNTY CONVENTION. We apprehend that there is very little difference of opinion between the edit <r of this paper and the people of Thomasville on the subject referred to in the communication signed Z, and therefore we deem it unnecessary to write a lengthy reply. The count u* tiication is in reply to an article writ ten by Mr. Harris, who kindly filled our post during a brief absence, and who we 'eft at liberty to promulgate his owi. views. He may not have touched upon a popular chord in that article, but we think h s heart is riMit. aid that he will be found on the side cf our in'eres's when the time comes for action. BYINGTON HOTEL. A card and circular informs us that our old friend •). L Byington, so fa mous for hotel keeping in Albany and Fort Valley, has removed to Macon where he has opened the Byington Hotel on Cherry Street. If he keeps up his reputation, and we do not doubt that he will, the Byington Hotel in Macon will become more famous than the Lanier, We wish him the nio-4 splendid success. NATIONAL AMERICAN. We have received copies of anew paper with the above title published j in New York City by the American Industrial League. It will be devote 1 to the Labor question and cooperate with the party now rising to power. EDITORIAL CHANGE. Col. Carey W. Std«s, former!,' of the Quitman Banner, has purchased and is now editor of the Albany 2Yi. j Weekly News. Col. Styles, is a leady writer and fluent speaker, possessing j liberal talent and great energy. . Wiih j his usual success in the newspaper j bussness, the News will soon show signs of improvement. THE ONLY PLAN The Macon Tii<graph displays at j its mast head the Id lowing: “The only [dan to defeat a convcti' I tion is to vote for Conservative Deles j gates, AND NOT VOTE ON THE Co.N- j VENTION QUESTION AT AI.E. Let every Conservative white and i colored tuan in Georgia remember j j this, and govern himself accordingly. I A vote against the Convention will I not do .’’ LIBERTY OF THE PRESS. The Lake City Fla. Press of tin? 12th inst contains an order Irom F. E Grossman, Capt. Commanding the Dost of Lake City, directed to the Sheriff of Columbia County, forbid ding him, in obedience to Gen. Order No. 49, to publish advertisements or oilier official publications in (he Press, on account o its opposition to Recon struction. Our cotemporary of the Press thinks it rather hard that he should he the first struck down. Let him bo consoled. The Conservative press of Georgia received the blow but the weapon recoiled and slew sixty thousand Radicals in Ohio and Demi sylvania. It is thought that at least fifty thousand more will be missing at the roll call shortly to bo sounded at the polls in New York, Let us be patient therefore, for a short time.— They are howling dreadfully over their defeat in the North, and faithful to their instincts, have turned and are now engaged rending eachothcr,-- That was the objective point —it is gained. POLITICAL. A mass meeting of Republicans was hold i al Thomasville on Saturday lest to nomi j nale camlidates for the convent ion. The j whiles very properly look no part in the [ proceedings. The nominees are Rev. Mr. Smith and j Dr W. O. Ca.son, of Thomas, and Mr. j Cutler, of Brooks. We learn that they are | all recent imperial ions—“carpet bag gon i tlemen from tho North”—in pursuit of loaves and fishes.— Suv. Peu-s ft lleralJ. The Herald has been misinformed in reference t<> Rev. M 0. Smith, who : s thoroughly a Southern man and i longtime a citizen of the county. He j is, and was at the time of his nomina | tion, absent in the northern part of the j State, and it is not yet known whether I he will accept the nomination ns j made. We will say of him that he j is a good man and good citizen, with out assumption, and therefore popular, and we think he was Selected by the Loyal League to conciliate the wlrtes. Dr. Carson is said to be a Marylan der and clever gentleman, but our ac. quaintance with him affords us no clue j to his politics, except the fact ot hi nomination bv the League, which is generally sufficient among Conserva tives. Mr Cutler has boon highly spoken of to us by a good and influential citi zen of Brooks, but we know nothing J about him. Whether thr people of Thomas will accept this ticket, nominate .another, i or let the conservative interests go by and fault, we are not able to tell. They j seem so much depressed bv the short | crop, the low prices of cotton, and the but den of taxes jn.-t now due, that we doubt whether they om he brought to ; the consideration of a political mat ter. The election, however, is near at band, and whatever is done must be i done quickly. I (Special Dispatch to the Sumpter Republican) | Headquarters U S. A., Oct. 14, 1857.

Ohio | and Pennsylvania gone Democratic? — Radicalism dead, and the Constitution re stored. 15th inst. We clip the above paragraph from the Americns Ga Sumpter Republi can. Nothing could be more out of place and imprudent, and we regret that a Georgia editor could so far fori get the situation of the country as to indulge in such remarks. The uned ucated masses of tho corlored pcop'e will readily construe suclt remarks in to meditated evil toward them on the part of the Democratic partv, and be come inflamed by the sentiment, whereas every sen-ible man knows the editor of the Republican was only ini dulging his disposition for braggado cio. But it was in veiy bad taste, Charley. (Communicated.) Mr. Editor: — I have just read yoor notice of the “Mass Meeting on Saturday.’’ in your paper of the 15th inst., and note, part iculat ly, your re marks relative to the non'attendance of the whites on that occasion, to which I des’re, brief! , to reply. You ‘ regret that the white people did not respond to tie call in a man ner commensurate with the liberal and conservative spirit evinced in the words of the «igner',’’ and think, “af ter the proposal for cooperation had been made, it w uld have been tt ore appropriate for it to have been regard ed with a greater degree of c nsidera tion than it was,” and that “the white men should have gone to the meeting, although : t was called by black men, and evinced a disposition to listen to the overtures of the signers of the call.” Having thus arraigned the white people of Thomasville for declining to participate in the meeting, you pro ceed, peremptor Iv, to assign their mo- i tives, viz: ‘‘a mistrust of the princi pal actors in the meeting.” or ‘a far of lutj c contumely at the hands of the people.” The whole cause of the difference of opinion be'wecn yourself, Mr. Eib itor, and the white people of Thontasi ville, I apprehend, may easily he found. loti must have read but a portion of the call, and particularly those expressions of a conciliatory spirit, and a desire for cooperation, which it contained, while the others read the whole of it. These found it a call on the whites to unite with the blacks, not for eon sultntion upon the great issues which divide and agitate the country, not for the discussions of the questions affecting the interests of all clauses of ! our citizens, but, ignoring entirely all ; difference of opinion on these subjects j between the whites and the signers of the call, as also of the propiieh/ of a Convention being laid at all , arid specially as to the action of the Con- j tspn ft/ill if nrmvArWw] tlif* Prill inr/noel j ed the whites to unite with them in j the specific and definite purpose of se. I lecling and nominating candidates for S the Convention, whoso purpose shall ; he the reconstruction of the State in j accordance with the Acts of Congress \ Now, Mr. Editor, the whi es of j Thomasville are opposed to the whole j reconstruction machinery invented and put in operation hy Congress as arbi trary, unjust and unconstitutional, and are determined, by no act of theirs, to aid in fasti ring its iniquities upon themselves and their posterity. How, then, could they unite with any ot hors to ini'iute arid carry forward the mea sures for the degradation their souls abhor ? You think, however, that even the few whites present “could have abso lutely controlled the mini nation,” and, if 1 correctly interpret your remarks, you think the attend a nee should have been in sufficient numbers to have cured that ro-ult, and thereby have defeated the objects of the signeis of the call In this I differ with you. — I believe any class of our citizens have tho right peaceably to assemble in puhlio meeting; tor the considera tion and discussion of an' political subject, and that when a meeting is called by the advocates ol any partic ular line ol policy, [or organization or action, that no others arc privileged to participate in its proceedings, and that an attempt on the part of such to ac quire control of its proceedings and subvert the intention <>!' the orig in tors, is eminently uniair and unjust You further say “no one could pus si* ly have been committed by the ac. tion of llie me. tin against his will.’ The dogma, herein enunciated, i-, 1 think, held by yourself alone. Its practical operation would lead to re sults which you probat ly did not con template, and which 1 do not think you are prepared to accept. It is not, I am happy to know, the doctrine re cognized us correct aud honorable when this country was republican. 1 have thus endeavored, Mr. Editor, to satisfy you and the signers of the call that other and higher reasons than those imputed -ti your article influenc ed the ahs 'iitees from the meeting on Satur.hn last, aud, also, that while we eheerlul'y accord to our oolore<. friends the exercise, t-> their lulle.-t extent of ail the rights and privileges guaran teed them, there are rad cal differen ces of opinion between us respecting the policy ot Congressional R> con struction which we are trot prepared to surrender. Z. Order 49. The Cincinnt' Knquirer says: ‘Thee is some prospect that Dope’s order, lor. bidding the publication of advertise ments it! v onserv .tivc papers, will be revoked py the D.esidont, so tl.a‘ the people of Georgia an.l Alabama can be ; stow their patronage upon papers of : their choice.’ : Tho Present State of tho Cotton Trade. The following views arid statements rogurding the “ Pr sent State of the j Cotton Trade,” promulgated iri an in. i to resting and valuable pamphlet re | cently published, ent tb and “ Remarks on the Present State of the Cotton Trade and the Financial Condition of England:” It is rn w generally admitted that we shall receive more cotton this year 1 titan in anv previous one; but it will be shown that fir the future the sup ply of the raw material wil' always be equal to tie demand, however much nitty be requit'd to feed the mills of ■ all the spinners and manufacturers in i the world. The fact is that markets may bo overstocked ; and were all the existing machinery kept in full work, a greater amount of manufactured goods would le produced than the world could find use for. The limit would be in the consumption and re quirements rmt in the production. In a word, there is much more cotton ma chinery than can be profitably employ ed. It may he taken for granted that, even if present prices are maintained and net esc did. we shall reeeivi 2,- 500,000 to 2,750,00'» bales from the Uni' dSt i- Fot tit hough the ce-t of the product, on of cotton in North America is certainly seventy-five t< eighty per con:, more than it was be fore the war, owing to the rise in la* hor and ail necessaries of life, the ci st of production of cotton in India', Egypt iii’.il oth r countries is certainly less titan it wa- six years ago, owing to the ; improved system of cultivation and ir j t igation th it has recently been intro duced. We may always rely on re- j ceiving From Bales of India, - 330 lbs - 1,500,000 to 1,750,000 !

In a few years thr? grow ing of cotton must be abandoned hy its present cultivators altogether end r ass into the bands of farmers, negroes and others, who will tike up small plantations of twenty to forty acres, and grow there as much cotton as they and their families can attend to with out the aid of hired labor, just as wheat and other cereals are grown iri the North. It will ho found that it cannot pay planters any more to eulti, vate large tracts of land with cotton and to hire negr -es to do the wo k.— Labor will he too dear and too uncer tain to make the ghance of profit worth the risk ; but when a farmer settles on twenty to forty acres of land, he and his family can attend to the cultivation offif ccn to twenty-five bales of cotton, and be paid for their labor, besides growing sufficient corn for their own iiisimh* *“hiico me i * ti>ui the negroes in America will be almost cxtcrniinati and. Gradually the bulk of them will be driven West, as the Ins ! dians were, and neglect and starvation will kill them so in. Be this as it may, i we may fully rely on getting, for tlm next two or three years, no less than three and a halt to thee and three i quarter million of bales—a quantity i which will bo more than i rn ugh to produce the goods which the world , c..n absorb. It is now to be proved ! (hat tho present quantity of cotton mu- 1 chinery is vastly in excess of our wants, and cannot be profi ably etn- j ployed. In tin' year 1858, 1859, 1860, . a de ree of prosperity prevailed among Bpinncrs and manufacture!b eutli as ! had never before been witnessed.— New mills, most of them ol iinn ease s ze, sprang up during 1860 and 1861, in till directions. Alderman Bayne stated, in a paper read before the Blackburn Mechanics’ Institution in 1860, that round about Blackburn twenty-eight new mills were then be ing built ; but the favorite places for mil’s were Wigan, Bolton, Oldhaui, Stuoleybridge, Bury, Dr.-tun, lineup, Tnduimdon, Halifax, Burnley and Newellurch, and such ons-o -the way places us Nuneaton and Coventry. — The increase in nulls since the last ! census was taken cnliiiut be less than IVotn eight to ton ■ million of spindles ; and titty t > sixty thousand looms. Most el these mills were still being i built ulon ill cotton famine began. Were the enormous mill powers to It j set to umk now, the consumption of | outt it wi niil certainly average sixty : thon-and bales of Cur bundled and , loity-tour pounds each p. r week The exports ts 185 01 glutted the World with cotton go. d-, and making allowances lor the natural and legiti mate increase in the e u.sumption, it is certain that the human race could not even t ow nb-o b the quantity of goods winch was made annually in those days. But we have now the machinery euptible ol supp ling thirty percent, more than at that |erind. Can it be employed prufitai-ly t Ibe answer must vettainly be —no ll all the cotton machinery were set in mo tion t lu* raw ntutetial would get up thirty per cent, in price, and yarn and goods would 1 ill, for stock would accu mulate within a short time to s eh at. extent as to be wholly beyond 'he ca pacity of merchants to grapple with India and t Inna buy little or no more cotton goods from ns than they i>ed to do, notwithstanding the olio mous increase in the aggregate value ol our imports from those countries. I cry little of the money which wa- made by cotton speculators and dialers m Manchester, Liverpool, America, and India between 1869 and 1864 lias been retained by those who originally made it The Bombay people Ist their gaincs, first; by the subsequent fall in Cotton ; secondly, by specula tor! in stock and shares; and now, ti ost j houses are actually poorer than they i were 1 efore the great rise in cotton ; took place. In fact, hardly one-third of the commercial firms in Bombay have remained in existence; tho oth ers have failed or have wound up their business and gone away. '‘ln Kiv< r puol it is the same tiling, the money was lost as quickly its it was made, and very few houses hive retained the wealth acquired between 1861 and 1864 ” Owing to the price of labor, &e, having risen enorrn -usly since 186 U, the cost of spinning is 25 per cent more than in that year. But this is not all, the power and indepen dence of the working classes have in creased in a manner not to he express el by figures. They are virtually the masters of the trade, and mil - owners w. 11 have henceforth more trouble with tin in than ever before, and although * lie operatives may be unsuccessful ultimately in their war against capital, the mischief done will be very great. The chief e eu-y to British industry are the trades’ unions. In Germany and France, any attempt by them to interfere between indepen dent woikmen and their employers would bring upon the perpetrators such punishment as would prevent similar attempts for a long time to come. Naturally enough, legal forms, the great saf guard of the govern, ment, are set aside in such eonsequeri ces ; hut as the evil which trade’s un ions bring on any country is of the gravest kind, and outweighs by far the good wliiib they have ev r done for their own order, such considera tions should be of small importance. But here in England neither govern ment nor Darliament dare interfere; arid they will not only soon be the most formidable body in the state, but one that knowing its power, will use it for its own advantage to the very utmost The position of' the cotton spinners aid manufactures are much aggravated hy their inability to com bine, not only against the trades’ un ions, but also against ‘the cotton spec, ulating fraternity ’ They are jealous of and di-trust one another, and i*' ev er any agreement is made between them it is sure to be broken soon by some. In Febuary last, some spin, tiers in Oldham, representing altogeth i r about one million spindles, met in the Manchester Exchange and agreed to work only three days per week, and signed a document to that effect. Every one of those gentlemen went home that day determined on bis own mind not to carry out the convention, and chuckling at bis cleverness in having bound bis neighbors' hand-. Ol course all remained ns I). fore, and no reduction in the working hours took place, but this sort of conduct shows a jealousy and want of: dhesion between the members of the cotton industry which are as reprehensible as they are injudicious. The cotton spinners, by working short time, can whenever they like, avoid incurring losses. Reducing the production of goods must raise prices, accompanied as it is bv a diminut on itt the con sumption of cotton, it will lover the price of raw material and increase the margin between cotton and varn. Got ton dialers and brokers manage ‘ dif ferently ” They present a compact body to s'rangers and an unbroken front to the buyer, always plotting and combining how to keep up prices, and they generally succeed in anything they undertake against the utnii-cip' lined band of spinners and manufac turers. The South and the Lute Elections. TI e Now York SVerl !, in the course of an excellent article on the questions decided by the Into elections, has the following!!! reference to the South, which should interest all our people : To -«y nothing of the stunning and paralyzing effect of this great revul sion upon Congress, the recon- 1 ruc tion scheme w ill be defeat, and by tho action—or rather by the stubborn in action of the South. Even if Con gress should lie equally stubborn, it I wi 1 not shako the deti rmiuation of the South The Southern people would sooner wait four or six years for the election of anew Senate than return under the proffered conditions. A number of leading Southerners have imb ed counselled submission; but the argumei t has been, ‘ Let u aecept these harsh conditions beeaus they are inevitable; ’ or, “Let us take these lest we get worse ” Thenceforward, white Southerners Will scorn to use this kind of reason ing or to listen to it. They will fall baek upon their tights and decline all action under the Reconstruction laws If new governments are organiz 'd, it will be the Sole ** "i k ol* llie negroes , ami Cor press, with its l riel lea.-o of power, will not dare lo recognize ne gro governments pure and simple, es pecially since negro suffrage has been 1 signally and indignantly rejected in those elections by the only Northern States that had an opportunity to pro nounce upon it.

Thad Stevens Come to Life and Prepairing for War. A Washington dispatch to a l’Dila■ ; del;-hia paper euys : L- tters have been received here j from Thaddeus Stevens in which he j declares his intention to urge upon i Congress, as soon us it meets in Nn i ventper, two great measures which he regards as essential to the safety of j the country. The first is a general I impeachment law, defining offences | upon which an officer may be itnpcuch ! ed, and expressly declaring that no | officer shall continue to exercise the power of Itis office during his trial.— I he -cc uid law which Mr. Stevens in | tends to urge will provide that, under j the authori'y of the Constitution and upon the principles of the Declaration of Independence, no State shall have power to prohibit citizens of the Uni ted States, whatever their race color or religion from voting for President or Congressmen. This law will establish iiupuitial suffrage throughout the Un ion. Leading Republicans affirm that Mr. Stevens will be sustained by Con gress. A correspondent writes from Woos ter, Ohio, as follows: Beil Wade staid over Sandy 1 ere, with (lon. Martin W tilker. and is said to have remarked, in his cito.ee and expressive language: ‘The d—d nigger and the G—d d—d bonds have given Ol id to the Copper heads this year. And this chaste reverend language fe it note >, c-.mes from the Radical Dnsident of the Senate of the United Sfat s, and a prominent candidate of that patty for the Presidency.

Kayton, of Savannah, Ga., whose name is now becoming familiar in almost every house and hamlet in our land: and the fact of the matter is, that it could not well be otherwise. His great remedies will, undoubtedly, in a short lime, become famous throughout the civil ized globe. Kaylon’s Oleum Vitae, the great German Liniment, is almost infalli ble in rheumatism, neuralgia, toothache, nervous headache, sprains, &c. Kayton’s Magic Cure, is an excellent remedy for di arrhoea, cramp colics, cholera morbus, &c. while Kayton’s Dyspeptic Pills are pre eminently without equal in all bilious af fections, dyspepsia, costiveness, liver com t 1 tint, and whenever a mild cathartic is necessary. They are entirely vegetable, and act without griping; are so innocent that they will not injure the most delicate persons. The Kayton remedies are for sale by druggists generally.— Ench-mge.
