"We learn from the ‘ Enfaida N> tea ’ that the Caterpillar has made its appear ance in that section, destroying the cot ton with the voracity of hungry wolves, it strips the leaves and forms, leaving the stalks naked, except the few bolls that have matured. From the best infermaiion we can gain is that a short crap of c:tton may he expected, which, iu our opinion will have a tendency to enhance its value. Georgia as site in. Amid the goneral uphe&viogß and political convulsions, around us, there is continually ariseing to the surlaeea kiud of substratum, unique in its Da'urc, but at the same time so transparent iu its composition as to require no analysis. It is but an upti ing iu the liadioil ranks, whose leaders are like lido men lifted from their feet in the strugle and the prisure of a multitude, but troddeo down whenever their precarious support gives way. Tu - r'-nml? government is but a Tournament. The gauntlet, is iiunu, and the lists are crowded not with a na tion’s chivalry contending for national honor, but with little souls, endowed with Cyclopean cupidity, whose avarcie is bnt commensurate wbh their ma’fig naot designs. For, to satisfy personal greed and attain party meaturcs they are willing to sink a world. What is the assemblage now in At lanta but an iscoogruous uuilocton of monsters, typifying every grade of van vice ai d sciolism. They are but tbs representatives of nuubocracy in polities, are the apostates of a liberty, culminating in the bondage of millions, of freemen, and of an equality of races, the fraternal links of which are to be dyed in blood, Amidst these satanic shapes, the co ble and lofily human being passes, us ke would through (he port of a museun appropriated to uncouth monsters, men tally exclaiming, bow ugly and destest able these miscreations aro, and bough! what a stench they emit.” Imagine the svperl array of talent investing ihe Thing the hidoou3 shape, the poor deformed Bantling, miscalled the Georgia Legislature! Now, thcflior is claimed by some renegade radical sneak, who, for an indefinite period is allowed to calumniate bis betters, and •pit, incontinently, toad-like venom; while aoon, the netcly franchised arises, cells the previous question, tar —and “Too deep for his hearers goes on defineing, And thinks of convincing while they think •t dineing” True La this menagre there may, now nod then be found some manly ge nial (in unenviable quarters to our taate) weilding democratic weapons, and batliog tor the right, but tbey are Kko the few gods descending from Mount Ida, upon the planis of Troy, striving to overcome mortal might, by celestial powers- Tbeymce proud “Gate city” of a yet prouder people bas become the amphi theater, whose actors rank from Sillipu liana (supplicating to be spit upon rath er than neglected,) to m«D, who once honored and directed the council obam ber of the state. For the credit of Gu rgia, iu all aftrr lime, wo would draw tbo veil over th proceedings, and .blot from our records tbc names ol (be trio, who, if their crimes had been Done other, have made for (nomselve*, an immortality of dis grace, io their late diitribe upon the s>uth Ia the name of secession, their quan den God, let not the woild know, that Brown—the iuiuacuatc Brown was tbo first to hurl from its place upon tbc cap itol—(the state-housm at Milledgetil e,) the stars and stripes.— 11i II——called, Joshua, and Johnson both assenting and afterwards, defending the act, are now thundeiiog against "insurgents, rending our sacred pr rogative, and striving with Herculean fret zy, to seal with woe the doom of millious. Al though, graphically, and poetically decribcd by their Kidicnl supp Tiers as little less thau demigods, to us, they are little less than deuiimon, nay a win gell frog a devoi! inspired monkey and an iron machine of artistic instruction,’’ are but tbe ir true appcllativ s. Surely, no smalt bribe was theirs, no common goblet, could GU such rapacious maws. They ure uulike other beast* of prey, that sometimes feed to repletion, aud aie overcome by the g'Tge, for they, protract their least, and lingeringly take the royal saps, while they are bew' iog away at tbo foundations of the C in stitution. But tiuitor* once, will be traitors again, and at the next turn of the tide, they with their Aids, Ex pressmen, Bureaus, aud carpet-bi.ggers, with pluuder ad infinitum, will be all aboard on an other track, throwing a judas kiss to their present masters. In the mean time there will bi a reg ular “squelching out of the “truly toil,-- the bottom tail making a rapii detour to i's original place. But howl on, ye furie.-! in true I’an demonia style until, you have churned into commotion every evil passion, that stirs the human bosom. Prate on, of a war of races, of the torch, an i sward. This is but your own inflamatory speeches, that engender the strife, aud sound the to.-in of war. But your day of triumph is short, y ur sun w.l, ere lmg, sink iu dirkoets; for Radicalism is in its last stuggle, and, dying, hard. The reign of terror, so grimly, for shadowed by the ominous days around us, will, soon, “pronounoe for doom, its leaders, as did, the French R;volutions the .spirits of the guillotine. Albeit, our Ddeetable Maintain, is yet gloomy and cloud-girt occasional gleames of light illume tba range, and we are, almost, ready to cry, Kareka, as the prophetic vision fl nts before us, and the great stone of Democracy, (uulike that of sysiphus,) is rolled to the sum mit and secured iu triumph, there Bu. there, mu°t be no yielding, no lotfering. in our columns but, along, a strong, and an a’together ru ih for the right, with truth the chtmpioo, and southern honor, the watchword. In the words of the old Itomon “Cas sius, from bondage, must deliver Cas sius.” Tion, in the rescue, Democrats, white men Georgians! The Pbilistians be upon thee. Sampsoi, arise and shake forth, once more, your mighty mate and put to flight the hordes of vandals, and necreants, who trample upon your free don. Misbepreskntation. —Tho Ridical presses are attempting to weaken the influence of the Southern ieatiera ami injure tbe cause of Democracy, by de claring that the late Confederate leaders are advocating revolution and war.*Tbe charge is false. These leaders—Hamp ton, Forest, Cobb, Toombs, Butler, and otheis, are urging, with all tho energy and eloquence which they possess, the cause of the Democratic party, as the cause of Pence and Constitutional Lib erty. They counsel no war—no revo lution; but nrgeihe people to work ener getically and unceasingly in bebalt of the great cause which they ref resent.— And as the people of the South follow ed them cheerfully and promptly in war, so will they follow them willingly aGd proudly in peace.— Banner of the South. Cheeking News from Louisiana.— A business letter from New Orleans to a gentleman in Atlanta, ref-rring to the pol ticai situation, says “I am glad to inform you that I have never known such a chance in the colored population as has taken place here in the last month I don’t think them will be one sixth of the negro voters who will vote the Ilid ical ticket in November in Louis ana and Mississippi- Democratic Enthusiasm --Fr-m all quarters of the Union comes the intelligence of the popular enthusiasm for the Democratic nominess.

This will cause the loss of a term. Robinson of Greene will be Judge of the Ocmul gee Circuit, p will he seen through the papers that some if the Judges have been appointed and ccnfi.med.

But in this ma nic aver, the m inißivorers have been dis appoint-d. Judge W. ins accepted, and yistcrday obtained his commission. Only two or three votes carried through some of the Governor’s nominations. The minority in the S-matc aro very in diguant at some of them, openly charge that the want of character is too frequently a ree tnmendation to the person. At the late Grant and CJfix ratifi cation moatiug here, if any white men fivori y it, they were ashamed to be seen in the process on —con tenting t bemseh es to spur on the negroes. The speeches male, (*ith the ixcep ion if that of Senator Hill.) were rather of an incen diary c iaraetir. The worst of feelings and prejudices are b ting excited by the Ssdecal leader among the negroes, to produce c mfl.cts South, to make capital lor the Northern Radicals. This may do no mischief South.

So things te.Ed. The ■ ft ut on tbc pirt of the Northern 11 il icals to demorali-e and turn Ge rgia over to the tender mercies of a eorrunl aud bitter fee, will certainly in the end prove a failure, to the mortification of those who sell thcaiselvos for cfliie.

The l«q islaturc will probably, as il certainly should, pass a bill to give to the voters of the State, the privilege of determining the question as to where they prefer the Seat of Government for tbe S ate. It is contended here by one party, tbat tbc people in ratifying the Constitution, thereby removed it here This is on the other side as flatly deni ed. I hat the.eleciian of delegates to the Convention, was called for a spec - tic purpose. 'lhe question tbouF the seat of government was not mooted or thought of- This is lite.aily true.— lienee, let the people have a chance to vote aud settle it for themselves. Af ter that, no one will complian. Atlanta has, since the war, improved very rapidly. The improvments spread out from tho Railroad Benot—the cen tre—to the extent of a mile and a ha’f, on an average, all around. Improve ments still going on. Many of the buildings, store*, dwellings, &c., are in fine taste and tho first order of architec ture, with ornamented grounds &c. At lanta will no doubt ire long out strip any of the other cities in the Stato, having ! now about thirty thousand injopula tion. It will be the great point of wes tern trade, and that will radiate in eve ry dircctiiD’ The scenery, pure water good health throughout the year, with business advantages, makes it more and mure attractive. No one can well conceive of the num ber of laree and tasty buildings erected by the Government at “McPhersons barracks.” Why it was done, uuless for the sole expenditure of money, is moro than I can conceive. Not much less than a million of dollars, it will be found, has thus been laid out, while the people arc taxed ts impoverishment Gall you this a R-publican and free Government! This does not look like it. Best--“ Doctor,” said a lady, “1 want you to nrescibe for me.” “There is nothing the matter, mads am,” said the doctqr, after feeling ber pulse; “you ooly need rest.” “Now, doctor, just look at my longe,” she persisted; “just look at it, look at it! now say, what that need?’’ •‘I think that needs rest too,” replcd the doctor.

A good many whites a'tended fur the fun ff the thing, and from seme un xplaincl cause a pistol wa* fired oft by a negro teacher, and this was a signal for a general rneb e.— About thirty shots were fired, and the negroes put. to Highr.
