Twine those flowrets—twine them gently, Twine them o’er each grave so dear ■ Kindly tend them blooming sweetly, Watered by a nation's tear. Calm ihey breathe of hopes now sleeping Hopes that, like the morning d-w. Left us. oh! so sadly—weeping While beneath the cross (hey drew Far from homes where loved ones lingered, Fell those heroes, sweetly sleeping— Sleeping for the Hag so treasured For the land now wildly weeping. Tho’its owu loved banner’s foiled, Tho’ its cherished hopes are fled— Tho' by ruthless hands ’tis soiled, Forget we ne’er our noble dead. Twine them for that severed band, For that father dying slowly ; I wine them with a loving hand, For that mother bowing lowly ; Tend them kindly for that brother, F’or that darling mourning sister ; T»iue, oh! twine them for another. For that wife and orphans round her Gather from the field of battle llio-e who theie so bravely fell— Fell amid the musket's rattle, Cannon’s roar, and booming Bhcll. Still our aching hearts do mourn thee, Martyred heroes, rudely slain, Beauty still breathes sweetly' round thee, Lovely South, ’mid ruins lain. We fain would rear a mound so high That angels might around it wing, And twilight zephyrs, whispering nigh, A sweet, but muuruftil requiem sing; While calmly o'er each low-lain head The midnight's gentle, guardian host So surely watch the „ls, pi. g dead, Each at its owu eternal post. Griffis, August 7th, 18till. I'rniti u L>. n, rti g Lvoiy Uiiy now Prentice is throwing out some little slut against the (South ; and the iSoutheVn journals, many of them, are re producing said little slurs, as il whut he was saying, were so many harmless little truths—smart, pleasantries to be laughed at, and then perhaps to be forgotten. One day, the Louisville editor will say “he likes the tone of most of the Southern editors, but the horses that some of them ride, are a little too high and perhap-, the nest day, he is for putting southern editors who clo not see any thing good in Yankeedom, and Yankee editors who do not see any thing trood in Dixie, at the bottom of the ocean, to be weighted down by a league of brine ; and hen again, he is exercising himself, to the extent of a regular leader, against some pa riotic Southern woman who likes not Sher man, and plainly says so, and manufactures the word “ Shermanized.” Prentice is too old a chicken not to mean ■ny thing by these little flings of his against the South and the Southerners. Some time ago he had a tremendous mock-quarrel with Parson Drown low, and some of the very elect of the South wti-e so deceived as to be lieve it was a buna Jiile, genuine quarrel.— Utiiers a ain saw through the trick, and .-poitivoly cried out, •* Hurrah lor Brown low! well dune Kr Prent ce !’ Prentice finding out. le couli not bam boozle tbe llhole South by his Brownlow mclo-drama, is now mad about it, and hence his sly hits and innuendoes—all pieparato ry, mind what we say, to his desertion of tbe South, whenever an issue, a fujhtirig one, we mean, is made between her and the Radicals. When the worst comes to the worst, he will be with the Radical North, ahd the faults he i3 seeking to find with the South at present, are but preparatives of his, antecedent to the leap he will most assuredly take. We do not say, tfitb affected depreciation of him, let him go. On the contrary, the Sotlth by losing him in any critical moment, Would confessedly loose an immense deal- The Way, howctfct, he is now acting, leads any one who has kept up with him, to he on the sharp look-oUt—leads a prudent Southern man, in tho drafting of his pro gramme, so to arrange it as not to he' the least surprised at finding Prentice, in a crit ical emergency, much nearer the South’s worst enemy than her best Iriend. Expe riential docct. A High Rid for Tiiad. Stevens. — The Southern Watchman says that Thad Stevens, not thirty days since, told one ol the*e people that he (Thad) and his friends were in lavor of paying the Ro-ealfed, M ley alists”o‘ the South for their slaves, and that it was to be done by confiscating the property of the “ leading rebels ” He de dared further that the rea-on this had not been done hitherto, was because he and his associates knew that the President would never approve it, and that they thought it best to take no steps in the matter until perfectly assured it could be consummated without the slightest danger of interference from any quarter whatever. In the mean time, however, everything must be done to break down the President at the South, and build up a Radical party. In other words, stated plainly, the proposition was this: Organize a Radical party at the South, and help us bold possession of the government, and wc will pay you for your slaves “Ths Pse la Mightier (Kan the Sward.” GRIFFIV, GEORGIA, TIIIMIt HORMXG, AIGI'ST ID, 1866. Harrison Berry, a freedman, now of Covingtoti, this State, and formerly of Griffin, has written and published an Ad dress ot some dozen pages, to the colored people of the country—urging upon them the importance of their being “ colonized in some portion of the United States.” It is a very sensible, and well-w. ittefl document! and worthy the attention, not only of those to whom it is addressed, but also of those who have the misfortune (talking from a Radical stand-point) to belong to the I’auca sian race. Frecdmen would do well to read it. The price advertised on its title page, is 25 cents. The Old Cloven Foot Will Stick Out —The Macon T.lrgraph, of the Bth instant, having occasion to refer to Judge liichard H. Clarke, of this State, thus lets the old serpent, /xirty, slyly slip out its forked tongue. It says ; “ Though a Democrat of the ‘straightest sect,’ he (Judge Clarke) is a patriot, and sees the danger of a collision between the interests of his party and the welfare of his country.” Such flings as these can do no good, but to rip-open those old unfortunate divisions between one Southerner and another, which, it was fondly hoped, had been healed for ever. In this connection, however, while repudiating even an allusion to old party issues, let it be distinctly understood tha 1 no true Democrat, —of the States Rights School, we mean—she nks from any com parison of his party, With any other, on the ■ score of patriotism, persistent belief in the right ol Secession, good fighting to sustain the same, or candid acknowledgement of dc ' feat; but of no conviction that the South was ; wrong, or that might ever made right. Beating a Dog at iiis own Game.— A man by the name of Sol. Nettles, sucked, ear like, a short time ago, in Rome, this State, seventy-three raw eggs, and, though not a large man, he still did not have his fill, saying “ he would like a few more.” For the above facts wc arc indebted to the Rome Courier. Btfk. Robert Bonner, of the New York. Ledger —the biggest booby in alt the coun try, save those who buy and read the trash of his journal—has just purchased at Sara toga, the celebrated trotting mare Pocahon tas, lor 840,000. Raw Meat and Spirits to Cure Con sumption— An English paper prints the following : “ M. Fuster proposes to cure all cases ol consumption by the administration of raw meat and spirits. Although his method of treatment has not been long em ployed by Continental physicians, consider able testimony has been borne to the great success which has attended its employment. The new treatment has now been tried satis factorily in two thousand cases of phthisis. The raw miat is reduced to a pulp, m ; xed with sugar to conceal its unpleasant flavor and administered in doses of one hundred to three hundred grammes per day. The alcohol (of the Strength of twenty degrees Baume) is given iu doses of one hundred grammes per day.” President Johnson and Queen Vic toria. —The following congratulatory dis patches were among the first that passed over the submarine cable : tiie queen To the president. Osborne. July 27. —T0 the President of the United States, Washington : The Queen congratulates the President on the success full termination of at undertaking which she hopes may serve an additional bond of union between the United States and Eng land. the president's answer. Executive Mansion—Washington, 11:30 A. M., July 30.—Her Majesty, Queen ot United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland : The President of the United States acknowledges With profound gratification, the receipt of her Majesty’s dispatch, and cordially reciprocates the hope that the cable which now unites the Eastern and Western hemispheres, may serve to strengthen and perpetuate amity between the Government of England and the Republic of the United States. Andße# Johnson. Louis Napoleon is building a $5 000,- 000 opera house in Paris, which will rival in extent and grandeur the Collisetlin at Rome. It .ill cast about $5,000,000, and will be constructed entirely of stone, brick, and metal. Nothing combustible will enter into its composition. It will cover seven and a half acres, and be two hundred feet in exter na! bight. The auditorium, however, is cal culated to seat only about three thousand persons Every box will have its separate saloon attached fitted up like drawing roams, and a carriage way will be constructed to the second story from the street. The most successful and celebrated artists of France— painters, scnlptors, and architects—will be employed in its ornamentation and erection It will be entirely unapproachable in finish and richness by any structure now existing. The llon. C. C. Clay. —The report of the Judiciary Committee says that Mr. Clay’s statement that he was not in Canada, at the time of Lincoln’s assassination “is shown to be a falsehood.” The Augusta Constitutionalist says Mr. Stanton’s perjured mercenaries might swear till they were as black in the face as they are in the heart, but hundreds of honest citizen.-’- of Augusta can testify to Mr. Clay’s sojourn in our midst at the time specified by the Judiciary Committee. All the testimony is about equally valuable, and this infamous subor nation of witnesses to injure noble men, is a disgrace to the Yankees arid their so called i ivili/. i';ou We see it suite iin several papers —and the statement seems not to have been improvised for sensational purposes—that Ex-Gov. Ish&m G. Harris, of Tennessee, wa, in Selma, Ala., on the 2d inst., and that he registered from Mexico. •#“ Jss. Nathan Ells, known to the pdb lie through his quondam connection with the“ Baptist Banner” and Augusta “ Trans script,” has become associated with Dr. L. F. VV. Andrews, in the publishing and edit ing of the Macon “ Georgia Cititen.” SUMMARY. Gov. Wells has issued an adJress to loyal Louisianians, speaking iu scathing terms ot thi. cx-Confederates, approvi g the Conven tion of 1864, placing the whole responsibility ot the late riot upon the Mayur and police, endorsing negro suffrage, and embracing the Radical cause. A Lexi igton letter in the Richmond Ttmet says that a New Y’ork publisher, who.-e name is withheld, offered to endow Washington College with the sum of'Blo,ooo annually, it Gen. Lee would contribute one article a week to his paper. The proposition was declined. The official vote for the constitutional amendment to the Constitution of West Vir giuia, distranchisiug persons engaged in the late rebellion, was counted last week, and the amendment was declared adopted by 6,922 majority. Gen. John W. Rabun, of Savannah, died in that city on Tuesday, 7th instant. He was an old and respected cotton merchant. Simon Cameron, Pennsylvania, has taken ground against the President, whom he pro nounces, without reserve, “ a bad mao, faith less to his promises, and an enemy to his country.” Brick Pomeroy has adopted a political platform, and spreads it out in tho La Crosse Democrat. It is brief and pithy; “Equality of States in the Union, cry another war. White men to govern white men. Equal taxatiou—taxation of the United States bonds, or repudiation. The Mobile Register says that Gen. Lee was not whipped, but was “ smothered to death by a quarter of a million ot Irish and Dutch.” The King of Prussia, in a speech at Ber lin on the sth instant, iu reply to a congrat ulatory address says: “ Prussia had drawn the sword, not only for her own independence, but for the reor ganization of Germany. The first had been achieved, and the second might be attained.” The War department has reorganized the Military departments as follows: Schofield eommands the department of the Potomac, embracing Virginia, and West Virginia, with headquarters at Richmond; General Sickles, Department of the South, including the Caroiinas; Gen. Thomas, Department ol Tennessee, embracing Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, with headquarters at Nashville; Gen. Sheri dan, Department of the Gulf, embracing Florida, Louisiana, and Texas; Gen. Ord to command the Department of Arkansas, in cluding the Indian Territory. Forney Wants Gen. Wise Tried Alluding to General Wise’s speech at Nor folk, the Washington Chronicle Bays: “We call the attention of Judge Under wood to the treasonable utterance of Wise, and it may be hoped that he will be indicte t and tried along with Davis. * The impudent traitor should not be permitted to strut about unwhipped of justice. If he were con victed of treason, and under sentence of death for his crime, we will venture the pre diction that his pride would be humbled, uud that he would sue for pardon on his knees, if required to do so. At any rate, he should be put to the proof. I®" The Associated Press of this coun try proposes to spend $125,000 a year for European news by the Atlantic cable. They will have two dispatches a day, made up in London at 3 a. m. and 3 p. m., which will be the same respectively as 10 p m. and 10 a. m.. New York time, and reach here in season for morning and evening papers.

Gen. IQw Chief Justice Ruffin, ofNorth Caroli na, has, it seems declared the present consti tution of his State inoperative. We have not seeri the whole of hiif decision, and do not know how the matter came before him. He says : “ I consider that this is no constitution, because your convention was not a legitimate convention, and had no power to make a constitution for us, or to alter that which we had and have. I object to the organization of your convention, because it was called without the consent of the people, by the President of the United States, or under his orders —an act of clear and despotic usurpa tion.” Ameiican Truitts From Abroad. From the Mobil* Advertiser and Register. \Vc acknowledged, not long ago, the re st ipt of a little work entitled * Davis and Lee,” Written by an English barrister and republished by Van Evrie, Horton & Co s, of New Y’ork. We have before us another work, which is no less remarkable. This is a pamphlet of twenty double-columned pages, entitled *• True Loyalty in a Citixen is Fidelity to his State, both Ixical and General Governments being Agencies of the State.” It in a letter to Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, from Jacob Brown, acitiaen of Penn sylvania, dated London, May 1866. Mr. Brown is evidently a member of the Society of Friends. Being opposed, on prin ciple, to the shedding of blood, and moreover being an old man, he left the country at the outbreak of the late war and went abroad. He now writes to the President, approving his policy of restoration, and appealing for the release of Mr. Davis and other political pris oners, not nit the ground of clemency, but of right and justice. He contends that no Confederate, who fought for his State and committed no othor offence, is punishable by any law He goes to the root of the matter, argues from the Constitution and the record ed testimony of its founders especially those of them who were Northern men—and es tablishes the truth of the State-Rights thco ry by irrefutable proofs. It is refreshing, in these days, to read so out-poken nn argument from a Northern source, aud issuing from a foreign press. It accrna, indeed, as if the truths, which were so long cherished by the Southern States ,and so little understood abroad, had fled affrighted from these oppressed and afflicted Shores and taken refuge in tho old world, where freedom of thought and of speech is still tolerated. We have been more than once surprised at the clearness of perception of English and a few Northern writers with regard to subjects cm which the opinions of many Southern men appear to have been unsettled—shaken, as it were, by the shock of military Oonqucst. The principles which Mr. Brown maintains affe these : 1. That the Stales, as sovereign tie*, cre ated the Federal Govenment. 2. That the said Government might usurp poPct in derogation of State Rights. 8. That all usurpations were to bo regard ed as nullities, and not obeyed. 4. That the Federal Government had no power to coerce States. 5 That the States had the right of self defence against the Federal Government, even forcible resistance and withdrawal from the Union. And hence, 0. That a citizen, acting under the author ity of a State, in her defence, cannot be guilty of treason. These propositions he established by tho Constitution, by history, and by tho recorded opinions of Hamilton, Ames, the Adamses, Sherman, Ellsworth, Franklin, Marshall, Madison, and others of the “ Fathers.” Having established these principles by a chain of argument, which iij singularly terse, lorcible and conclusive, the author proceeds still further and declares that, in the United States, there exists, constitutional')/, No political rights but State Rights ; No sovereignty but State sovereignty; No citizens but State citizens ; No allegiance but State allegiance ; And no treason, except treason, directly or indirectly, against the State authority. Os oour.se, such Bent.merfte as theso ar ft obselete here. They ar6 prohibited, sup pressed, outlawed, by the irresistible argu ment of the sword and the bayonet. YVe do not presume to assert them ; we are merely quoting from Mr. Jacob Brown. We are quite satisfied that they itcre true once upon a time—before the war—but to people in our condition, it makes little prac tical difference, what is tru*, and what is false, in theory We conclude with one quotation from Mr. Brown’s pamphlet: “ The life ot Jefferson Davis, then, must be held as consecrated. The world will cry ‘ hold !’ if we attempt his harm. And even essaying to convict him violates the princi ple. li involves the consciousness of the as sassin ! It exhibits the malice prepense, which makes homicide murder ! The black guardism ol using, from the armory of mal ice and spite, such weapons of abuse as ‘pirates,’ ‘insurgents’ ‘rebels,’ ‘revolt,’ ‘in surrection,’ ‘rebellion,’ Ac., arises only from puerility of mind, or weakness of cause.” A most brutal and shocking murder was perpetrated in Webster county, Missou ri, on the 2Hth nit. A preacher was driven from his church, and shot dead while on tho way to his home ! The radicals of that State undertake to prevent any minister trom preaching unless he will take an oath which they have prescribed. Rev. Samuel B lleadlee, of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, had an appointment to preach and organize a church at Pieasent View. A band of armed men arrived at the church before the minister came, and when be ar rived they forbade his preaching' He ex postulated with them, without avail, and then, with his congregation, left the chnrcli, in tending to go with them to his own place (but a short distance off) and there preach. At the distance of about half a mile from the church, some of the armed ruffians galloped up, and shot Mr. Headlee three times 1 He died about ten o’clock that night, praying for his murderers ! I&- Mr Brake, of Fitts burg, Fa., killed his friend Hcltigan by shooting him through the head. He was playftrily pointing a gun at hi:n when it accidentally discharged. The sheriff should be permitted to play Silly put a rope around his neck and accidentally push him off a platform. The Jackson, (Miss.) Standard says that John Henderson, Jr., one of the Radios! ring-leaders who incited the recent mob in New Orleans, and who was killed, was a son of a former United States Senator from Mis siseippi, and was for some time a maniac of hw cute Lunatic Asylum at.
