No bleeding mar tyr, but a spavined rogue,” exclaims the New York World. ♦- Punch advises the benevolent to hasten their subscriptions, or Chica go will be rebuilt before English charity can reach that city. A giantess is on exhibition in Au gusta, who weighs 675 pounds, and measures seven feet around the girth. Lieutenant Fred Grant is to get $135 per month, and ten cents ad ditional for every mile ot his pleas ure trip to Europe. Prince Fred Grant sailed with General Sherman on the Wabash. A certain bullock in our State got fat and sleek on public corn. And when he saw his coming fate, he fled up north where he was born. The Radical papers, North and South, now say that Bullock is a dis grace to the party. He surely can’t be that mean! The Cincinnati Enquirer is of the opinion that our manifold causes for thanksgiving are seriousl}' m rred by the fact that Congress will soon meet and Grant will have to deliver another message. The Washington Patriot came out on the 9th in favor of the Democracy supporting a Conservative Republi can for President in 1872, and of working so as to secure the co-ope ration of Senator Sumner. Grant is said to be opposed to general amnesty. Os course; his very nature revolts at any thing fa vorable to the white people of the South. It is very appropriately suggested that if Harper’s Weekly would cari cature to some purpose, let it give us a picture of Grant holding out the Thanksgiving Turkey to Massachu setts with one baud, while pinning South Carolina to the earth with his bayonet in the other. The editor of the Albany News telegraphs from Atlanta to his paper that the delay in the Bullock inves. tigation is “ making public indigna tion.” It is certainly a matter that ought to be prosecuted as expedi tiously as a regard for truth and jus tice will allow. The demand for troops to “ lay” the Ku-Klux in the South, which the Radicals are making, greatly exceeds the supply. It will require an army of two hundred thousand men to send troops where every Radical de mands they shall go. One of the curious features of the New York election was the defeat of Horatio Seymour for the Assembly by Tom Fields, one of the most cor rupt men of all the corrupt ones who have brought disgrace upon the Democratic party in New York. The telegraph brings intelligence this morning of the arrest of Fields to answer for his corrupt acts in connection with the Tammany ring. A South Carolina paper thinks Union county owed its exemption from martial law to its name, Grant supposing that all the people of Un ion must be loyal. He had probably heard somewhere that “ Marion” was the name* of a “ Rebel” General; therefore, he included Marion county in the proclamation, and if he had known that Sumter county was also named after a Rebel” General, no doubt that county would also have been included. The latest surmise as to the ob ject of Providence in burning Chica go, is that of a Mormon Elder, who sees in it Divine retaliation for the persecution to which the Saints of Utah hare been subjected by the unbelieving Gentiles. He in timates also that unless these perse cutions cases, indignant Providence will kindle even more disastrous fires among the heathen cities! The Atlanta Era wants a census taken of the office seekers to be bound in calf.

' The Error can famish one skin, and if its Bullock comes back, it can furnish two. THE PUBLIC PRINTING. Much feeling and doubtless much anxiety exists among several of the Proprietors of News papers in the State as to the disposition which the Legislature will make of the Pub lic printing. The Atlanta papers naturally enough feel and express a deep solicitude upon the subject, be cause being upon the ground they deem themselves most likely per haps, to share the favors which the Legislature has it in its power to be stow. Among others our old friend Burk, of Macon, is also upon the tapis and prepared at all points to take his share in this public pie. To each and all, being of the same Craft, we feel especially friendly, and as they are all good Democrats we have politically of course no presence as to who may be the for tunate receiver of this little matter of Legislative patronage. No Editor or paper, true to the party has any right to deem himself more, worthy of the votes of members than any other, because of any fancied or real superiroity in vindicating the princi ples of the party, where all have been equally zealous and faithful. The setting up of any such claims might not only smack strongly of personal vanity not quite agreeable to the balance of the brethren of the press, even if it were true, but pre sents nothing really, substantial or worthy of consideration by the Legislature. The only question to consider, and the only one which we hope the Legislature will at all re gard, is how can the work be done most economically and properly, and who is ready and willing to take it upon that ground. Party fealty may have its weight, but at the same time the man who will best perform the labor for the smallest sum of money is the man who ought to have the work. It is and ought to be a question mainly of dollars and cents. The people of the State have no money just now to give away to party favorite, hardly enough to pay their burdhnsome taxes, and the treasury exhausted by the goring of our departed Bullock and his satel lites is in no condition to be manip ulated for the benefit of favorites. We would just as soon see the Constitution, which is and has al ways been a partisan and worthy fa vorite of ours the fortunate candi date, as its spicy and brilliant neigh bor, the Sun, or the longheaded and capital business man, Jno. W. Burke, provided the Legislature may choose to select the one or the other. Among the brethren we choose to make no choice, when all are worthy and competent for the work. What we have to say is simply this, that in our opinion, the printing ought to be given to the lowest bidder. In this we agree with the position taken by the Sun, and believe that while it would result in accomplishing for the State the best bargain that could be made, it would at the same time be fair to all who are desirous to ob tain it, and no one could have the right to complain if he did not prove successful. A caucus of the mem bers may give the printing to a fa vorite, or fortunate combinations may secure it, but the lowest bidder is the only proper way in our judg ment to do justice. In that event some of the country papers might come in, and by such offers as they could and would make, would be found hard customers in the hands of the City Press. We might come in ourselves, for we too can do the work, we hope, quite as well as more pretentious and popular organs, as could also many others of our more modest country - publishers. We say precisely what we mean, and again avow the opinion that the low est bidder plan is the best plan, and the one which we trust the Legisla ture will adopt. It is free from cliques, rings, Combinations and favoritism, and is fair, open and honest, and cheapest and best. We agree with Mr. J. Henly Smith, that “it matters but little who per forms the work, it the people be not unduly bled for it.” EUROPEAN NEWS. The special Washington corres pondent of the Savannah News tele graphs under date of the Bth inst.: Semi-official information received here from Europe, treats of the cer tainty of an impending war between Prussia and Austria on the one hand, and probably between Russia and France on the other to start with. The writer, a man of prominence, who is thoroughly posted in Europe an polities, says the alliance of Prus sia and Austria is an accomplished fact. The present Emperor of Russia has repeated the overtures made by Nicholas to Charles the Tenth, of France, in 1829, and which the lat ter declined to accept. These over tures have been accepted by the present French Government, and the preliminaries were Bigned by the Representatives of France and Rus sia at Nice on October 2d. In con firmation of these statements, it is well known that military prepara tions are being made in Germany on the most extensive scale, and all the arsenals and Government work shops are taxed to their utmost ca pacity. Russia is also preparing for war on a scale almost incredible. We wish it kept before the people especially the young ones, that dram drinking is the fruitful source of poverty, misery, crime, disgrace and ruin. Young men, avoid the dram shop or drinking saloon, as pits of destruction; and young ladies, be ware of young men who frequent such places, if you would avoid a life of untold sorrow. Now is the time to subscribe for the Standard & Express. NOMINATION FOR GOVERNOR. The Macon Telegraph and Messen ger in commenting upon an article from the “ correspondent of the Au gusta Chronicle and Sentinel, under date of November 11th, written con cerning the nomination of Mr. Nor wood as United States Senator,” the questien, “ Is there a “ ring” ineide the Democratic party of Geor gia,” a question directly induced by the remark of the correspondent of the Chronicle, writing from Atlanta, Ahich is as follows : “It is said and with no little emphasis and feeling, that a coalition in the party exists, which has steadily developed itself in certain nominations and elections, and will find its culmination in Gen eral Wofford’s nomination for Gov ernor,” and farther, “ the question of combinations and rings is over fraught with all sorts of troubles for any party.” In this it is plainly observable that the nomination and subsequent election of Senator Nor wood was attributable to the opera tions and management of these sup posed or real “ combinations and rings,” at the same time, however, plastering over this insinuation as to the improper if not corrupt means by which he was nominated, with the declaration that he “is one of the most estimable and talented of the party, and in all things will bear himself like a true man in every trust and emergency.” The compli ment of the correspondent we think is pretty equally balanced by the slur which his insinuated connection with “ combinations and ring 9,” casts upon Mr. Norwood. We do not know Mr. Norwood, and like the balance of the papers outside of Savannah, have hitherto heard but little of him, but are ready and willing to accept him as au fait in every particular, as ho is now the accredited Senator of the party and of the State. We know nothing of the means by which he ob tained the nomination, but presume injustice to him and the majority of the party, that it wa9 fairly and mer itoriously confirmed. The attention of that gentleman having been called to such a report, he addressed the following note to the Constitution, which we think should wholly exon erate him from the charge: Editors Constitution — Gents : Having been informed, that while the ballotting for a nominee as United States Senator was progressing in the Democratic caucus on Friday night last, a report, was circulated among the Members to the effect that Gen. W. T. Wofford and I had forined a combina tion for the purpose of securing, first, my nomination and election a3 Senator, and, afterwards, his nomination and election as Governor for the unexpired term of Gov. Bullock I beg leave to state through the Constitution, that the report was, and is, ut terly untrue. It was the figment of some in ventive brain. I make this statement not only in justice to myself, but injustice to General Wofford who is being made the innocent victim of this unfounded report. I was supported by the friends of every distinguished gentleman whose name was then, and now is spoken of in connection with the Governorship. I will state further, in conclusion, that I have every assurance that no such under standing or combination existed between the respective friends of Gen. Wolford and of myself. Very Respectfully, T. M. Norwood- The statement made by Mr. Nor wood not only vindicates himself from the injurious report which was circulated in the Legislature, and has since been published to the world, but is sufficient of itself to put a quietus on the charge. So far as Gen. Wofford is concerned, we are authorized to say that any in timation or statement connecting him with any such “ Combination or Ring” with Lis consent or »p --prolbat ion, is altogether untrue, and that if his name was used in any such connection or for any such purpose or for any other, m behalf of himself or any other person, that it was altogether without his knowl edge or consent, of which he was, and is now, entirely ignorant. We, unlike some other of our brethren of the press, are in favor of Gen. Wof ford’s election as Governor, and have so declared ourselves, because we be lieve that he is a proper man for the position, and, if public service entitles one to the office, is as deserving of the place as any other whose name has been mentioned. Like the Messenger we are no man’s man, but at the same time we prefer the nomination of Gen. Wof ford, whether made by the Legisla ture or the party in Convention. Any other Democrat selected as the candidate before the people will meet our hearty and cheerful en dorsement, but our preferences are for Gen. Wofford, as a deserving and competent man. We say again that we are author rized to say that ho is unconnected with any Combination, Clique, or Ring, as is strongly intimated, in his own behalf, or in behalf of oth ers. We have felt it due to this gentleman to say so much, and think it hard that he should be caused to suffer in the public estimation and his political relations, because of a report which is altogether ground less. Coroborative of the state ments above made, we call atten tion to the subjoined communica tion to the Constitution, doubtless, written by a Democratic member by the Legislature: - Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 15, 1871. Editors Constitution : In the Chronicle and Sentinel of the Uth inst., a correspon dent from this place over the name of “Oislow” uaes the following language: “It is said, and with no little emphasis and feeling, that a coalition in the party exists which has steadily developed itself in cer tain nominations and will find its culmina tion in General VI offord’s nomination for Governor. Last night this feeling in the caucus gave rise to no small degree of con fusion, and led, I am informed, to the with drawal of a number of Democrats, probably as large a number as thirty.” I do not desire to engage in any contro versy, but truth and justice authorize and require me to say that, so far as Gen Wof ford is concerned, there is not, and has not been, and will not be, any “coalition.’’ His friends advocate his election on what they claim to be ha ments, and not other wise Neither himself nor hm friends have promised any office whatsoever, to secure influence, nor wilUhey do so. I trust w« shall not have occasion again to meet such charges. They are false —to- tally false. Gentlemen have the right to oppose his election with or without reason, but in doing so they will not knowingly be guilty of circulating falsehood. I beg leave to add that according to the standard which the General’s friends recognize “it is said” hi not sufficient authority to justify such charges as are contained in “Onslow’s” ar ticle. Bartow Cocstt. We have nothing more to add on this subject, only asking of the coun try at large, such confidence in Gen. Wofford in this matter, as is due to one of our most prominent and pop ular and reliable men. Whether there be combinations or rings at Atlanta, we know not, and for our selves would have nothing to do with them, heartily endorsing as we do in the main the very strong and sensi ble article of the Telegraph and Messenger, while at the same time we think it not only legitimate but altogether proper and right to advo cate becomingly the claims of worthy men to office and promotion. Our readers will pardon an edi torial perhaps already too long, if we afford them the pleasure of read ing the following leader of the Tele graph and Messenger, to which refer ence has already been made : We have heard es the existence of this “ring” before, and every day’s advices from Atlanta seem to confirm the truth of the rumors that have reached us, and to which this correspondent refers. We re gret, deeply regret, this state of things. As the correspondent well says, it is full of danger to the party, aud we do not hesitate here and now to denounce it as wrong in principle and sure to lead to results of which, perhaps, the coalitionists have not seriously thought. It will sow seed whose harvest will be discord and bitter antago nism, if not open, actual revolt in sections without whose support even the coalition ists cannot hope to enjoy the fruits of their bargaining. We denounce all these rings or coalitions as inimical to the Democratic party, and therefore to the prospects of fix ing the full control of matters in Georgia in honest hands. We care nothing for General Wofford, nor Colonel Smith, nor any other candi date whose claims for Governor, or any other office, are just now being urged. Any man who can get an honest nomina tion for Governor, or any other position, will have our cordial support. But this is a question that rises high above all petty, personal or sectional considerations. It holds in its solution tho life or death of the Democratic party of Georgia as a compact, harmonious, irresistible organization. If ever it come3 to bo fully understood that by a combination between certain men, representing certain sections, all other considerations except those of mere avail ability or membership of, and active, zeal ous work for the “ring” are to be cast aside in awarding honors, then those who are outside will surely resent such injustice. When the time comes that a coalition be tween any set of men, or any two sections of the State, has so firmly fixed itself in side the party as to decree who shall fill its offices and reap its official rewards to the total, contemptuous exclusion of all who do not belong to it, aud who will not bow the knee before it, then thejend ofDem ocratic ascendency in Georgia is near at hand. The Democrats of the other sec tions of the State will not tamely submit to such ostracism. They will not lie flat on their backs aud allow themselves thus to be ground to powder between two mill stones. We write in the interests .of no man, nor clique, nor even sections. We have no special candidates for any office, but if there is a ring inside the Democratic party of Georgia, we are dead against its candidates, from the highest to the lowest. We denounce these coalitions as wrong in every aspect, and from every standpoint. We denounce them as necessarily corrupt and corrupting. We denounce them as ne cessarily greedy and selfish to an extreme that leaves no room to any thought or care for public or party weal. We denounce them as the instruments by which incompe tent, unworthy men are thrust upon the parly and the people, merely because they are supposed to be available, and to carry out a bargain. Finally we denounce them as death stabs at the very vitals of the or ganization that has rescued an oppressed people and a plundered treasury from the tyrants aud bandits of Radicalism, and the only organization which can, in the future, give either any assurance of safety. Down with all rings—lea* - e them to the foul sac tion that first made them prominent in American politics, and up with the Demo cratic party, one and Indivisible—dealing out equal and exact justice to all its mem bers and elements, and awarding its honors by the measure of personal and public de serving, alone. A New York letter asserts that Anna Dickinson yearns to be a man, that she may clothe that awful cliin of hers with a beard.

Editors:—l was in Atlanta last week, and was proud to see so many fine looking young men in the Legislature of Georgia, and what was still more gratifying, I did not see a member driuk a drop of ardent spir its. Now, if this Democratic Legislature will reduce the salaries of all the offi cers in the State down to a sum ade quate only to the services rendered, and their own per diem from nine to five dollars, and amend the penal code, so as to put every mail that is convict ed of stealing the public money in the penitentiary from ten to forty years, discretionary with the court, it will re duce the taxes of the people at least one half of what they pay now, and guard the Treasury of the State from plunder and robbery.

Messrs. n i* ffew of the various contemplated Rashoad enterprises, that are “ttHstined to pas.* through this and adjacent counties, it may not be amiss t« give the aumerous readers of your valuable paper some idea of the wealt h of the mineral dis trict, in and about this place. I have been for many years a practical miner; aud my conclusions as to this country are based up on practical observations, fully as much as they are upon strictly geological princ : ples. In prospecting for minerals, the gangue or out-croppings of the vein should be careful ly noticed by the miner, in order to obtain a knowledge of their peculiarities, and va rious combinations and associations, which is of great value to him in determining the extent and probable richness of the veins. For instance, the miner form3 an opinion of the character of a lode by the character of the veinstone. Thus in Cornwall, above the veins, w here rich deposits of copper ap pear, is a mass of iron ore matter known as gossan. It is on this same character, or class of indications, that copper has been discovered in California and Duck Town, Team, and also at Villa Rica, Ga. The richness of a vein is also greatly in fluenced by the character of the materials that form or constitute its walls, and there can really exist no rich, well-concentrated vein of mineral unless the enclosing rock be favorable to such development; and the best character of rock in which a vein can be found is that of a regular granular trap possessing a moderate degree of firmness. Granite is generally found near all the mining regions where copper ores have been discovered in sufficient quantities to be profitably worked; and formed good and permanent mines. The veins are more pro ductive as a geueral thing in the soft, de composed kinds than they are in the harder granitic formations. It is a demonstrated fact that copper is confined to no particular position in the ge ological column, but ranges all the way from the limestone to the granite, and whether discovered at Cornwall, Duck Town, Cali fornia, or Villa Rica, Ga., has certain char acteristics or peculiarities that belong to the country in which it exists. Thus prov ing that certain laws, or principals, regu late and govern the formation of ail those metalic veins. It is my opinion that those leads and beds of gossan at one Lime con tained a considerable percentage of copper; but during their long exposure to rains and atmospheric influences have passed away by the slow but certain process of oxida tion and decomposition, while the ores be low water-level are preserved in their origi- nal purity. But as there are several theories advanc ed in regard to the formation of veins, I can only give such information as I consider re liable, and have obtained from practical ob servation and experience. My opinion in regard to the Villa Rica copper mines is, that they are veins of the yellow sulphuret of copper, containing more or less gold and silver, laying much nearer the surface than those of Duck Town, and many other mining districts, and in this re spect possessing a decided advantage over those localities. The yellow sulphuret of copper has been found at the depth of sev enty-five feet from the surface with a regu lar well defined vein, enclosed in a beautiful granitic rock, forming that character of walling in which a productive and regular paying vein is best developed. In forming rich beds of the black oxide es copper, I am inclined to the belief that the yeilow sulphurets are exhausted to a certain depth—having been thrown up by volcanic action in a molten or heated state from below, and afterwards crystalized, thus accounting for the heavy mass of hard material intervening between the oxides of copper, and the original primative yellow sulphuret veins. Here a field of investigation opens to the mineral mind, far beyond the geological ken; the beauties and curiosities with which those rich metalic veins are studded, slum bering in their silent wealth, only awaiting the fluctuations of time to be brought to light and utility. The Villa Rica copper regions embrace a considerable scope of territory. I will only speak at present of what is known as the “Chambers copper lead.” It is estimated to be about five miles in length, with sur face indications at some points, where there are large swells on the vein, from thirty to forty feet in width, consisting of pure cop per gossan, and quartz, &c., &c. Some of the properties on this lead are desirably situated for mining purposes, es pec;ally, the Hill, Chambers, Wick and Hart mines. Shafts have been sunk at all these points, and copper cut, except in the Hart shaft, where the work was abandoned just as they were merging the cap of the vein. It has also been cut at various other points on this lead, but the work in every instance was suspended just at that point where the promise of the vein to a paying conclusion was the most flattering and encouraging to the owners. The want of mining skill, enterprise and capital have kept these valuable mining properties in the back ground, when in reality they are the most valuable of any that have ever yet been discovered in the Southern States. And the time is not far distant when they will be fully developed, making rich the owners, and adding greatly to the material wealth of the State. Villa Rica, Ga., Nov. 7th, 1871. R. J. G. From England comes the report of one more of those startling cases of assassination which have made the past few months memorable in the annals of eccentric homicide. The Rev. John Selby Watson, a clergyman and an author, sixty-seven (or, as otherwise reported, seventy six) years of age, formerly master of a great public school, and now living out his later days in comfort and in the enjoyment of public con fidence and esteem at Stockwell, near London, suddenly seized with a lit of blind passion, murders his al most equally aged wife by beating out her brains. This done and contriving some hasty plan to conceal the body, he writes a letter briefly confesing the deed and takes strychnine, but failing in bis attempt, is arrested and is now on trial for the m urder. “And those apples yonder.
