(IJt jftralk. »» Uin Editor *iurrf*. »*.,9ube iv t»*«- The radians. Tk«tM)i of Gen. War Walker in Cen tral America, and of Lopes in Cuba, seem raallj to hare been the prototypal model* that the Faoiana have selected in their lata invasion of Canada. There scarcely seems a man connected with the whole affair that hat a grain of military sense in his noddle. They arc foolishly, recklessly brave—as finch so as a native of the spice islands, who, when tired of life, “ runs a muck and tilte at all he meeta.” From first to last, tho whole thing has ap peared aa if they thought the world was ex peetiag something of them about this time, and not having themselves agreed upon any programme, 4 ,hey bare pitched out helter skelter; end the developments show that :0 to of them intended it for mere farce, others for ootnedy, and others again for trag edy or epic, while the majority of them went in blinds with some sort of aaenrancc there was to be aome sort of flgtit. The object of the Invasion was a mockery. Most of theso Fenians were red with the slaughter of Southern citisens—helping to make the South another Ireland. They now sco how much the U. 8. Government loves them for coming over end helping hor conquer the South. Now, let the Fenians pitch in the forth coming European war ; they can help Hus sia kill out the remnant of the Poles, or join tbe Austrian armies, and keep down the Italians and Hungarians; and then, map hr, theso grateful governments will endeavor to influence England to liberate Ireland — provided England secs fit to do so. With that portion of the Fenians—and thero are' some few in that category—who did not fight against the South wc sympa thise ; but for those _who wickedly eame over to fight ns, wo have not a particle ol sympathy. They sre fit for nothing but slaves, and wc are sorry they evor broke out from thehr prison-isle, and wo caro not if Great Britain holds all such in slavery till dooms’s day—the closer, the better ; at any rate, so they be kept in their place, if poor Dixie should ever wink her eye again. The Fourth of July. This memorable anniversary is close at hand, and we are rejoiced to witness that no true Southern man is making himself a fool about it—that is, boring every one he meets in suggesting propor plans as to the best methods of celebrating it. What, an im mense amount of rhetoric and rigmarole has been eructated forth in eulogy of what have bfect>) and still are, callod the great princi ple* of tho Declaration of luih'pcndcnce. Principles forsooth ! The whole thing strip ped of its sonorous verbiage, just means the common plaoe truism that, all men were oreated free and equal— not abtolutrly so,— but In tho varioua eorrcllations of hfo. Fur illustration, the correlations of man and wo man, adult and ohild, parent and offerin', governing and governed, husband and wife, maater and servant, employer and employee presuppose oertain duties tnd rights growing' respectively out of the relation, and these bnd long before been insisted upon in tho ethioal codes of every nation, Vagan as well as Christian. By virtue oi the relation, n iaihbr, n husband, a governor, or a master, ean legitimately go so far, and in this re spect they are equal. If the futher trans cenda the powers he derives from the mere paternal relation, they are not biuding on the child, and if the child has no other re <kts», He nan break from the relation and consider it no longer binding. In the same way can tho wife absolve herself from every obligation to the husband, and the servant from his master, and tho subject from the rulor. The thirteen colonies wcro provinces of Qmt Britain, and bore the relation of chil dre»yU it were, to the parent government, and 1 deeming themselves treated unparrnt al/y,lb\t they had a right to tear loose from tho-relation; and the principles of tho Dc tfintka of Independence bnt little more | dtonjoei reiterated that old doctrine A b«o eojality of all men was never intended : dan.' be trim; mortgage* mu-'t bo Pi ha* f nr <«mr monti e- i«.i . - taonslung toet fer UlfjUljl tpnoo of three od feM*f»U spnus of thraa month to jet*?* Xotieeof application fer dismiMion from °°° Krtrav 10 <U> * 4 Z Having returned to Griffin, rvni.eetfilly tender* l,i* ? $ OF E S 3 i 0 H Kjfe 888 V LC It 8 To those who may desire then.

Tkalnt Wrw of this Court, sos the County of SpnhMwg, convened Ve this pi *ce „o last Monday, and adjourned on the rve timr of the tallowing day—his Ilonor .Lai's, s. Boynton presiding. The Grand Jury consist! and of the following wain and g-nllc mcn : JAMES S JONKS, i'wenma T. J. Ison, B F. Willw, Wm .J. Berry, .Film W Patrick, Wni S. Berry, Geo. D. Johnson, J hn T. Hansom, Charles F \ewfon. A T. Brown, J. C. Little, R. P. McWilliams, 11. T. Brawner, John K. Buchanan, J. 0 Sears. The people of this county h ive g *>d rein on to felicitate themselves on the 1 ueci--Gil inauguration ot this new court. Judge Boyn ton in this his first e-say upon tho buich has developed qualifications that prove him eminently sui'ed fur the position Ilia charge to the jury ua u able ami explieit, and delivered with an ca-y dignity ami quiet Self-possession, t at to a stranger might have carried the impression that lie was a veteraw j on the Bench, instead of a novice, and fresh «t that from a four years’ fight. The County Solicitor, Mr. Pill Ji. Brown, was indefatigable in attending to tho func tions of his office, and will make an cfficie.it officer. At any rate, lie and the Grand Jo ry together, have made a good stnt, h r being quite a number of true i.ills h>uu against sundry parties who will he ti i• .r the next monthly .'.essiou of the C. iii.t . Court. There was hut o.»e case triid ill \'l. conviction was had, to wit : The State vs. Cary McCard, Carrying Concealed Weapons. Solicitor Broun u. i F. D. Distnuke for the State, and J D Stewart for the Defendant. Verdict : Guilty. The defendant was only about seventeen years old and wa-i working industriously to support his widowed mother, and not able to pay u heavy fine. The Court, therefore, fire I him (nly ten dollars and cost. The Grand Jury was discharged until the second Monday in next month, and will not bo finally discharged until the biannual Hcs-h n of tho court in August next, V when anothi r grand jury will be drawn to serve at each monthly sc-sion for six months thereafter. By this means there i- a grand jury in each county all the while, whose duties, among others, arc to notice and report all violations of the Penal Laws at their monthly sessions, which wo think is a good feature in the or ganic act of this Court. These frequent meetings of tho Grand Jury will he the cause of a number of minor offences being noticed, and the nflVndcrs being brought, to justice that would otherwise ho Ibreotton and passed over. The prospects t.ow are that this country will soon he relieved of a great many minor <.lienees which uiv a great evil in all communities, hut have seldom been noticed by our courts for several years past.

Washington, June 11. — St ea, of the, . e 'tinsel of -Mr. Davis, made a motion before Judge Underwood, in chambers, in order to j test tbe jurisdiction of the courts in Virgin ia, involving tbe power to bold a prisoner to [bail, it being a judicial question that the President has nothing to do with Judge | Underwood expressed the opinion, which has always been insisted upon by Chief Jus tiee Chase, that so lung as martial law or military surveillance w*s in force iti Virginia, ’he cour:s were a mere military adjunct, and to be used in aid of tlie military power.— Judge Underwood declines issuing a habeas corpus writ to bring the prisoner before his court until he received from the President a relitiqui-hnient ot the aecu-ed from the civil authorities, Mr. Davis being now a prisoner lot war. Judge l uderwood reduced his ! opinion to writing, which was delivered to the President by Mr. O'Connor AJ action is suspended in the premis s until further orders from ihe Government, It is stated on the authority of one ol the counsel, that no appii ati'.n for bail was made to Chief Justice Chase or Attorney .General Speed Charles O’Connor and Ex-Govenor Pratt were among those present in Judge Under wood’s chambers today. Within the la-t few days Mr. Davis’s friends, professional and otherwise, have lutd lice admission to him. The passage of flic resolution by the House today, declaring in its opinioi| that Mr. Davis should he kept in custody until trod by law, was superinduced by the ap Iprehmsion that he would he baikd.
