the country reaps no advantage, amounting to nearly a hundred and eighty-seven, millions of dollars, and alf the rest of the bad legislation with which the people have been afflicted. Inasmuch as these are all grievances against which the public have common cause of complaint, the best thing that the Convention can do is to admit into its deliberations tho representatives of all parties who may present them selves. and let them all go to work, according to the light that they are favored with, to establish a healthier order of things. Ihere will be many candidates for admission, and it can not be expected that each will be agrcable to the other. Objections of various kinks will be raised, aud an tecedents will probably be raked up as barriers to participation in the coun cils of the Convention. It will’ be wise to overlook all such objections, and give every one a chance to have his say on the vital matter to be dis cussed. We want new men as well as new measures to bring the country Lack to its original prosperity, and nulify as far as possible the work of the corrupt faction in Congress. The ancient Christian Church was formed out of heathens and Jews, for the very simple reason that there were no other classes in existence at that epoch from which to form anew faith —idol worshippers, and devil worshippers, and belivers in the piophets, and those who bowed down before the golden calf; and yet out of these elements we got the grand Christian dispensa tion,, with all its blessings, which have even fallen in a greater or less degree upon the politicians. Let the Phila delphia Convention, therefore give a.l the elements —-no matter how discor dant —a chance, and something good may come out of the admixture. —-A. Y- Herald. I.

The Great Eastern had laid nearly three hundred miles of cable, and, up to the evening of the 15th, was pro gressing favorably. Nothing further had transpired about peace negotiations between Napoleon and the contending powes. The Prussians had defeated the Federals in a sanguinary conflict at Oschoflen burg, and marched towards Frankfort, which was evacuated by the Federals. The Diet had removed to Augusten burg. Prussian headquarters are at llrunn, Austria. It is reported that the Prussians occupied Iglaw. The London Times thinks the Prus sians will be •before Vienna by the 17th, and doubts whether the Aus trians can withstand the victorious Prussians. Cialdini occupied Padua and Vicenza, towns on the Railroad to Venice. It is declared in diplomatic circles at Petersburg that Russia has no present intention to abandon her neu tral attitude, and will not, excepting a foreign power shall intervene in aflairs in Germany, *TIM, LATER. New York, July.2o—The Atlantic cable is a success. The following dis patches have just been received : Heart’s Content, July 28. — We arrived here at nine o’clock this mor ning, all well.

Heart's Content, Friday, July 27, 7:60 a. m.—The Great Eastern has just, atichored opposite the telegraph office. The cable was spliced two hours since on the Mediova and will be here in three or four hours. The whole distance run was 1,669 nautical miles. Length of cable paid out, 1,864 miles. f lhe slack was a little less than twelve percent, of the absolute distance. H art's Content, Friday July 27, 9:10, a. ra. —C. W.

The District Convention met at Black shear on Friday, 27th ultimo, according to appointment. Most of the Counties in the District were represented, and the action of the body was expeditious and harmoni ous. Judge W. B. Fleming of Liberty, and Gen’l John B. Gordon of Glynn, were ap pointed delegates in chief to the Philadel phia Convention, and Col. A. T. Mclntyre of Thomas, and Maj. P. C. Pendleton of Loundes, alternates. TII t: ATLANTIC CABLE. This great work is at last announced as a success, and Europe anu America are re joicing over the achievement. The Great Eastern arrived at the American shore on the 28th ultimo, having paid out 1,864 miles of cable, which is declared to be in perfect working order. CHOLERA ON TIBEE ISLAND. From the Savannah Advertiser, we learn that the whole number of deaths from Cho lera on Tybee, since the landing of the troops is about 95. Latest accounts report the abatement of the disease. We sin cerely hope the scourge will be confined to the Island, and not be permitted to get into our beautiful Forest City. CABINET RESIGNATION. Secretary Harlan, in a brief and courte ous note to the President, resigned his seat on the 27th ultimo, and Senator Patterson of Tennessee, it is reported is to fill the va cant place. NOIIINEEN OT THU BLACK SIS EA It CONV E NTIO N. The proceedings of this Convention came 100 iate for publication this week, but not too late for us to express our hearty appro val of the able speech of Gen. Gordon be fore that body, lie was actuated by the right motive and prompted by the right spirit. Whether he will be an acceptable member of the Philadelphia Convention we • cannot tell, but no man would be a truer ! representative of the First Congressional District of Georgia. Judge Fleming is also a good selection as far as our knowledge extends of his political views. The follow ing from the proceedings of the Convention will show its action in reference to the se lection of delegates for the State at large : “ Whereas, It will be inexpedient to con vene the District delegates for the election of delegates for the State at large to the Convention at Philadelphia previous to the meeting of that body. And whereas, The Convention of the 4th Congressional District have elected as dele gates to said Philadelphia Convention lion. A. 11. Stephens, Hon. Ilerscnel V. Johnson, Hon. Abraham H. Chappell, and lion. D. A. Walker; and Hon. David Irwin, Hon.W. Hope Hull, Hon. Win. Law, and Hon. Carl ton B. Cole, as alternates, and ask tho con currence of the other District Conventions in this action ; therefore be it ResolveJ, That this Convention ratify said election of delegates and alternates for the state at large.” A DE AD FAILURE ! The editor of the Quitman Banner, made a dead failure last week to sustain his po sition in reference to the law governing Ordinaries in their publications, after a most desperate and laborious effort, in which he worried through two whole columns. We certainly admire his energy, but de plore the disaster of his failure. His giant efforts, perhaps, deserved better success, but the fates were against him, as was also the weight of the evidence. We shall not undertake to follow him through those two dreadful columns, in which the immensity of his genius has succeeded only in erect ing a wall of vulnerable assurance ; —nor will we undertake to combat the ardor of his unju-t and groundless prejudices against the Enterprise. We shall confine ourself strictly to the | law part of the argument, and refer only to two or three particular points in his ar ticle. After quoting half a tinent ” law, declaring that Ordinaries shall advertise, without designating in whit paper , the editor of the Banner throws it all overboard, and declares that it is not “ ma terial to his argument.” Taking anew , tack at this point, he goes back to the de fense of his old obsolete statute of 1850, ; which he admits is not to be found in the , new law, (the Code) but reiterates his first ! assertion, and declares that it is the law, aiiTl this he is willing to risk before the 1 tribunals of public censure, &c. To sustain this position, be says, the j Code does not repeal the act of 1850, and therefore “all acts not conflicting with the Code, and which are essential to its proper operation, arc still of force.” Our answer to this is, that as the act of 1850 is not es sential to the proper operation of tho Code, therefore, by the editor’s own argument, the act of 1850 is not in force. Again, he says, the above rule laid down by him, is “ fully sustained by the 9th rule of section sth of the Code,” which he quotes as follows: “ Ir. all interpretations, the Courts shall look diligently for the intention of the Gen eral Assembly, keeping in view, at all times, the old law, the evil and the remedy.” The ninth rule he refers to, in reality ! reads as follows : “ Ainth ■ —ln all interpretations, the | Courts shall look diligently for the iuten * tion of the General Assembly, keeping in view, at all times, the old law, the evil and the remedy. Grammatical errors shall not vitiate, and a transposition of words and clauses may be resorted to when the sen tence or clause is without meaning as it j stands.” Why did not the editor of the Banner publish this last paragraph of the “ ninth rule?” We answer because he knew it would be fatal to his argument —he knew that it explained the first paragraph which he quoted, to mean the reverse of his inter pretation. lie knew as well as any lawyer that the meaning of the “9th rule of the sth section of the Code,” had do reference whatever to old laws or statutes not em braced in the Code, but referred strictly and solely to matters and things treated ot in the Code. But not only does the second ptragraph of the n'ath rule show the utter fallaciousness of his argument, but the first paragraph of the same rule, upon which he I goes before the “ tribunal of public censure,’- totally annihilates him, and, to complete his disaster, according to his own “ rules of interpretation.” For, says he, “In all 1 interpretations, the Courts shall look dill- I gen;ly for the intention of the General As- I sembly.” By this quotation he misleads his readers, (if they are blind enough to believe him.) by leaving them to infer that ( the act of 1850 having been inadvertently t 1 omitted in the Code, is still the law. be- j cause it vras neither incorporated in the Code nor expressly repealed by it. But this pretense is too shallow. Every sensi ble man knows it was the ** intention of the General Assembly,” that all the laws of force in the State should be embraced in the Code, and as the old act of 18-30 cited by the editor, t cat not incorporated in the Code, it is fair to presume, until the con trary is shown, that n was purposely left out for the want of force. The “ intention of the General Assembly,” in authorizing the Code was fully shown in our issue of the 18th ultimo, and also their declaration j | that “ such a Code will furnish all the infor mation, on the subject of law , required either by the citizen or the subordinate magistrate.” But the benighted mind of the editor of the Banner requires more. It is not clear and definite enough for him to appreciate it, and he cannot tell for the life of him, how it was that the old obsolete statute of 1850 was left out of the Code, when he was rely ing wholly upon it to frighten County offi cers into ranks. Having failed to produce any law to sus tain his position, after three weeks consid- I eration and research, we think the editor of the Banner should give up the contest. At any rate, the argument is closed on our side. We have taken no notice of his per sonalities, or his spread eagle boasts of the great popularity and success of the Banner. If they were necessary to give force an i ef fect to his argument, be it so—we stood in need of no such auxiliaries.. But we t .link we are entitled to the thanks of County officers generally, for bringing about so great a reduction in the advertising rates es the Quitman Bimner-, a journal whose im mense circulation gives it so vast a weight and influence in this government. ’ . • [COMMUNICATED"] ‘ • BOSTOX AXD ITS HOSPITABLE PEOPLE. Barely indeed, in “ these latter days,” has there been a social gathering that gave more pleasure to those who attended, than did ths Barbecue-Pic-Nic at Boston, on Thursday last, The citizens of the vicinity, quite in their long and well established reputation for genuiue sociability and Vir ginia hospitality, had made, by the ener getic activity of a very efficient working Committee, ample preparation for hand somely entertaining the large number of guests present, from both Thomas and Brooks. No Stone was left unturned to give importance aud eclat to the occasion. The tempting appearance of the table when dinner was announced, ought to have satiated the veriest Epicurean. The evi dence of liberal hearts aud well-filled lard- I ers, was satisfactory and incontrovertible \ beyond dispute. Comfortable seats, cool j water, luscious fruits and melons, pretty | ladies and gallant gentlemen were abundant. ‘ The young, old, and middle aged alike, i seemed delighted—putting away for the time at least, the adhesive cares of life, and delivering themselves up to a happy social izing abandon. Nothing in the least unto ward transpired to mar the joy of the day. J Duriug the war aud since its alleged dis- ; continuance, several families have moved j into the vicinity, some from North Carolina ; and some from other sections of this State.- | They would constitute a valuable addition to the society of any community, and 1 know must be greatly missed by the sec tions from which they came. The new ac quaintances formed were extremely pleas ant, while the reunion with old friends and familiar faces, brought, vividly “to mind | the memory of other days,” and inspired J vio ytilK now liopo and frcsli countgo fur I the conflict of life. About 4 o’clock, P. M., n fine shower, : with a stiff gale from the East came over, cooling the arid earth and watering the grateful earth. Farming interests in this portion of the County, seem to have suffered but compara tively little for lack of rain. Corn- and’ Cotton look really fine, and the thrifty far mers are wearing cheerful faces at the prospects they now have for a lucrative yield. May they realize their most san guine expectations, and the worthy people of Boston and vicinity, live long to enjoy the repetition of many such a merry day, evbr prays an Invited Guest.
