Undoubtedly the Presidential tour
South has done much toward bringing
the North to a better understanding of
the Southern people. We haven’t the
least doubt but that if Grant had
made the same visit during his term
but what he would have met with the
same enthusiastic reception. The South
has long wished for an opportunity to
show the North her earnest desire for
peace. In fact, the South has made all
the overtures in that direction, and even
some of the most partisan journals of
the North have at last been forced to
acknowledge t lint t lie South has done
all that could be expected of a manly
for ; for foe they will consider us. The
North conquered the South with her
bayonets, but the South is now about
to conquer the North with her masterly
conservatism and conciliation. This
lias given the Republican party its
death blow, and the snarling, radical,
bloody-shirt politicians can bring noth
ing to bear upon their ensigns now but
the forlorn cry of “The Solid South.”
It will not do. The masses of the peo
ple are tired of bickering and want
peace, and will have it.
We are glad that the capital city of
our Empire Slate induced the Presi
dent to visit it. and gave him such a
hearty Georgia welcome, lie may hold
a fraudulent title to his position—yet,
he holds it; and if he continues in his
noble exertions to heal the sears of the
long and embittered strife between
brethren. he will find the good and true
of both North and South standing by
to hold up his hands. “ lie who serves
his country best, serves his party best,”
even to the “ breaking down of the
old and the building up of the new.”
llad llayes been treated with
coldness in the South, what a storm of
abuse would have been thrown at us by
the now grumbling loyal papers of the
North.

The Kxlrn Session.
Columbia Register.
Sonic of the Washington correspondents
are mapping out the work for the extra
session of Congress, and it seems agreed
among them that nothing much will be
done beyond the passage of the army bill
and the deficiency appropriation for the
navy. The fact is, though, that nobody
can tell what Congress will do or will not
do. There is no restriction upon its legis
lation at this session any more than any
other, and though it will he surely two
weeks, and perhaps longer, before the or
ganization is completed and the commit-
tees named, there is no way of telling
what the course of legislation will be du
ring the month and a half which will elapse
before the day for the regular session comes.
There is every probability that Congress
will remain in session the whole of this
month and a half, so that the only effect of
the extra sesston will have been to put it
at its regular work that much earlier than
usual.

Till- novt'iaviit to Abolish tile Ofltce of
President.
It is reported at the headquarters in
Washington of those who are seeking to
abolish the Presidency that sixty-four pe
titions in as many cities and towns are re
ceiving numerous signatures to be present
ed to Congress asking amendments to the
Constitution so that the government may
be placed in the hands of a Council of State
composed of the heads of departments to
be elected by Congress. The scheme will
fail. The people are still of the opinion
that with a fair chance they can elect an
honest, constitutional President, and they
are resolved to make at least one more
trial without the aid of fraudulent returning
boards or corrupt eight-by-seven electoral
commissions.
Beast Butler intends, it is stated on the
authority of one of his friends, to introduce
a bill into the next Congress for the pur
pose of increasing the army. Asa bribe
to the South, the plan outlined includes
the idea of inserting a clause in favor of re
storing to their regular positions in the
army the old officers who entered the Con
federate service. Good Beast, let us have
the restoration without the increase.

Something New Undeii the Sex.—A new era is
dawning upon the life of woman. Hitherto she lias
been called upon to suffer the ills of mankind and
her own besides. The frequent and distressing ir
regularities peculiar to her own sex have long been
toiler the "direful spring of woes unnumbered.”
in the mansion of the rich and the hovel of poverty
alike, woman has been the eoustant yet patient vic
tim of a thousand ills unknown to man—ami these
without a remedy. “Oh, Lord, how long!" in the
agony of her soul, hath she cried. But now the hour
of her redemption is come. She will suffer no more,
for Dr. J. Brad field’s Female Regulator-—Woman's
Rest Friend—is for sale by all respectable Druggists

Messrs. Wm. Root & Sons : About one year ago,
X bought a bottle of Brahkiki.h's Female Regii.a
tor from you, for one of my daughters who had been
suffering with suppressed menses for some time. I
have had several physicians attending, but met with
no success until I was persuaded to buy a bottle of
the Regulator, and it is the very thing for which it is
recommended. She is now in perfect health. I hope
all suffering females will at least try one bottle and
have health again. Very respectfully,

New York “forced *nle*“ he has purchased an immense stock of goods, for the greater part of which he has
paid nothing like their value. Consequently he can sell "bargains."
THIS ADVERTISEMENT
Is no extravagant exaggeration expended upon a mere handful of goods, purchased, perhaps, at high figures
under the pressure of a doubtful credit.
ON THE CONTRARY,
This magnificent stock of goods was purchased FOR THE CASn, and in its purchase the subscriber did
not confine himself to the regular channels of trade, but struck out boldly upon the market, relying upon
his judgment (the result of thirty years’experience) and plucked splendid windfalls from under the ham
mer of the auctioneer, the sheriff, and from the hands of the assignee.
