Io an article headed as above, tLe Charleston Nctcs present* the fdlowing views of tho pa it and present condition of the southern people. D toys; “In these diys, VE-'p’s fable of the wolf and lamb is receiving a thousand applications The Hiuthcrn armies, when the war ended and sbanded and went quietly home The Southern people, oppressed by the general bankruptcy and threatened with atarvation, resorted to the arts of peace. The S mthern legislature applied to the l’rcsident of the United States to know what they mast do in order to satisfy the demands of the triumphant North, and did what he required. They sacirficed thousands of m flit fen.; for peaco, only to bo denounced as rebels still.” “Aud ever since they have borne hu miliation upon humiliation. They have seen their best men disfranchised and some of them driven out of tho country. They have been oppressed by worthless adventurers, by cotton agents like Calico! and bv Generals like Sickles nud But ler. They have had contracts made for , thtm and tares imposid upon them by alien?, renegades, and menials. Their property has been rendered well nigh worthless. Their pride has been tram pled under foot. lle-ihziDg the predict ed fate of Egypt, they have been sacri ficed to the ambition of the meanest of the human race. Yet nothing but new slanders have b.cen the reward of a people who have endured so patiently and so long. They are criminals; sim ply because they do not willingly, yea thankfully accept deba-ement and ruin.” The picture thus drawn by the News is a correct one, says the Atlanta Inte.l liasnrer—one that cannot but strike all who read it with Lrco and its truth Hot what of the future of the South and her people ? Arc they s’iil to br manacled by the continued enactment of luws requiring still more of sacrifice on their part, still more of debasement? Has not Georgia done enough ? Vv’bat more will be required of her? We b*v<* not made up our mind tv bOiev® (hat Mr. Sumner’s LilL has gone to the Judiciary Committee of the Sen ate, can receive from that Committee a favorable report; nor do wo believe, if it docs, that it will ever became a law. There is evidently in the Senate a fcel iog prevailing more tolerant and corsscr- j vative than existed in it at the last res sion of Congress. This gives us hope for the future; and should that hope bo realised, then will the march of our no-1 blc old State onward to an early pros- , peri’y be a sure one—otherwise all will be gloom. Nobly Said. Hon. J. B. Henderson, a Republi can Senator from Missouri, out of favor with his party for voting on tbo side of the President in the impeachment trial, in a recent letter to his colleague, Mr. Drake, thus deprecates the policy of dis franchising the white people of the South, in order to elrengihen the Radi cal party: ' A perfect system of in n ulity will ■ot sanction wrong that gold may como of it. Good never comes from such a source. Men do not gather grapes of thorns nor figs of thistles. Sweet wa tors do hot spring from bitter fountains. The enslavement of tho white man is not likely to bring about the liberty and happiness ol the negro. Freedom is a fruit that does not grow on the stalk of oppressions graft and bud it as you will. Itither than place our party in the at titude wbiek yoa. indicate, let us try the amendment to day, and if defeated, let ua enfranchise our own Taec, and try it again People will believe that we are aotuuted by a true love of liberty when they find no cause to suspect us of a wish to enfranchise those win vote for «sand to disfranchise those who vote against us. I propose to secure the negro rights by an appeal to reason, atid not by the permanent enslavement of n largo earn ber of our owu rase, who arc S3 loyal and deserving as either of us.’’ Many farmer* have noticni in their I fields a Urge black beetle, with most, bribiant dots placed in rows on his back. Dr. F itch says: “It’s eggs produce the corn grub kilW.

From the Ath.uia Intelligence-. [ Tiic Agrli'iilluriil Convention. No more important event in eolation to the material advancement and pros perity of Georgia, lias occurred in many years than tho meeting of tho Agiicultural and Manufacturing, tho Farmers and tho State Agricultural 1 Societies now merged nnd tin ted un der the name of the State Agricultu ral Association of Georgia. Tho char acter and standing of tho and til (‘gates, tho earnestness which iinimntod their deliberations, tho unity of purpose which they manifested, an 1 tho entire absence of all the arts which distin guish political conventions, give assu rance that the future of old Georgia will bo vastl benefitted by the work which has been planned and the meas ures taken by tho Aisoeiation on ye# terday and to-day. The first stop taken by the three so cieties above named was to fuse and revive in the persons all tho delegates present, ‘.he old State Agricultural As sociation, which in former days was productive of so much good to tho State. Soon thereafter l)a'ud Dick son, of Hancock, the renowned cotton planter, was elected President of the society, as a well deserved tribute to bis fame ns a practical agricul urulist and tho benefits which lie has con ferred upon tho wholo farming popu lation. Col. 13 C. Yuney, of Athens, and six other gentlemen, one from each congressional district. Were chosen and in tho absence ot Mr, Dickson, Col. Y r ancy, as first vice president, took tlie chair and presided over the convention with that abi’ity and digni y which characterize him at all times Col. Yancy has been the President of the Colton Planters’ As sociation and of tho Agricultural and Manufacturing Society, and n i s large ly due to hia efforts and inlluence that we are indebted for the (.resent gath> ering of the representatives el tho in dustrial interests of Georgia. lion. David W. Lewis, of Hancock, the for mer President of the State Agricultu ral Society, was unanimously elected Secretary of the new society, and it will bo universally admitted Iliac no better choice, could have been made. Mr. Lewis’ patriotic services in timer | [iast in the cause of agriculture, and the many sacrifices he made to pro mote the good and efficiency of the so ciety, entitle him to the thanks of every farmer in Georgia. Dr. James Caroak, of Athens, was elected Treas urer. After tbo appointment of an exo,cu live oemmittm ol lift cm members, composed of leading representatives of till tho groat industrial interests fiom every part of the Btate and the ap pointment of various standing ccm> mittees, the question of foreign emi gration was discussed at length and with much ability. Judge Schley of Chatham, Mr. B. T. Harris of Put nam, Col M C Fulton of Athens, Colonel D. E Butler of Morgan, Mr. Reese of Macon, the presiding offie p r, Colonel Yuncy, and others participat ing in the discussion, all acknowledg ing the importance of a well regulated system fur tho promotion of foreign immigration, and the necessity of leg islative action to carry the plan into effect. Avery able, carefully consid ered, and elaborate paper on the vilule subject, from the pen of Col. F. Schaller, was road by that gentleman, w hich was so fully approved and com mended that the thanas of the body were tendered to Col. Schuller, and the paper ordered to be printed among the proceedings of the Association.— Col Schaller’s plan recommends the creation by the Legislature of an Em igration Bureau with its principal of fice at Savannah, and the appointment of a Chief Commiss’oner and four Com jnisdonera to reside in Great Britain, the Germanic Confederation, France, and Italy, respectively, and there pro mote the omigrai.'J n to Georgia of the best class of settlers, vruj " buy our surp'us lands, and contri’cu'e t'.*' r en terprise, skill, intelligence, and means, to tho development of the now dor mant resources of Georgia. These agents must, in tho first instance, be paid by tbs Btate, but tho plan pro vides that after some time, when the machinery is put in motion, the whole system will become self sustaining and not require the approbation of a dol lar. Probably at a cost of SIO,OOO, the movement could be inaugurated, and with, an almost certainty of sue cess. Everv detail is provided for, eveiy point is guarded, and every rec ommendation given in clear, precise language, by one fully competent from knowledge and experience to prepare a plan for legislative adoption. | A committee was appointed to con sider Job Schaller’s paper, and mern ' orializt the legislature on the subject, with the view to the passage of such laws as may be found to be necessary to cairy out a good plan of iminigra tiun. Another subject of importance was referred to a spetial committee ap point for the purpose, namely, whether wages in money, or a share of tho crop, is the most advantageous mode of compensating negro labor, in tho in terest of both emp’oyor nnd employed. The committee was specially instructed to consider this subject nnd present'a wril'en report on it at an early day. It was distinctly avowed that the emigration movement is not aud was never intended to be antagonistic to tho interests nnd welfare of the no ir roes. It is to encourage the immi gration of sett'ers, not more laborers, that it P proposed, and the iarger tho number of employers becomes the more tho interest of the negro laborer iu advanced and protected. This sub ject was eleurlv stated to guard against tho misrepresentations which radical demagogues w ill be .sure to make with a view to the further demoralization of the negroes. It has rarely boon my lot to be pres ent at a convention composed ol more able, intelligent, anil earnest men. In a letter hastily written alter the ad journal jnt of tho convention, in order to save the mail, it is impossible to do justice to the subject. In a future letter I propose to dwell at greater length and with more detail on tho pioceedmgs, confident that tho read ers of the Intelligencer can have noth ing more interesting presented to them than the views expressed during the past two days upon the great subjects for the discussion ol wh ch tbo Agri cultural Society was convened. Tbo greatest interest is felt in the movement. Large numbers of new members join’d, enrolled their names, and paid their subscription of §2 Ouo member, Mr. Thurston Bloom, handed in a list of 101 members and a roll of £-02, the result of a couple of hours’ effort. The same interest should ani mate every or.e in the State. Our suc- cess in tho future depends on our own exertions, and in no direction can they bo turned more hopefully than to the development o! tho vast resources which wo possess, but have never learned to develop. *** Bullock scud Blodgett. That beautiful pair, bullock and Blodgett, says ike Savannah “News,” are figuring conspicuously in Wash ington, endeavoring to induco Congress to undo its reconstruction legislation so far as relates to Georgia. Both these (vorlhi s have addressed commu nications to Cc tigress, nnd, backed up by the negroes Turner and Simms, are striving hard to prevent the admission of our Senators and Representatives, and to tu r n our State Government up side down generally. If such men as Blodgett and Tlul lock can accomplish their revolutionary purposes, it will really be through the blind indignity of the Radical majori ty in Congress against our people, and .irrespective of any existing ncce.'St lv for guob unconstitutional int.rven tion. Wo have deemed it unwise to aid them by cur opposition, trusting that there may yet be honest statesman ship, justice and patriotism in Congress to discern and defeat their unworthy purposes. Honest denunciation of such men only recommends them to the sympathy and favor of the unscru pulous patty whoso vile instruments they are. The Humored Purchase of Cuba. —A Washington c;n t; pond ent ol the New York Post, says tb it many contra dictory statements are a flea t about tho reported negotiations by our govern ment for the purchase of Cuba. It has been affirmed positively that Caleb Cushing bad been sent to Madrid by tbo Htate Department to make an offer for the Island, but an examination of the list of pas*eng n rs from New York for several days past and aes not show Lis name 1 among them. 'J hat he has been some where on r.n important mission is not to be denied, for he was expected to argue' several important prize cases before the Supreme court in Washington, during next week, and has notified his clients that he could not do so. Several mem bers of the House committee on foreign “ffairs believe that negotiations are pendin'- which will result in tho pur chase o's Cuba. There is also a rumor afloat that Mr. Cushing, IV stead of going to Europe, has ended for St. DomitigO, to carry out the ideas of Secretary Sew ard about the purchase of tho bay of Sainana. Hiutno Laborsrs.— Wo have heard seme talk of procuring laborers foi the next year, and several farmers have been iu the city seeking them. Negroes in Cos j lambus are totally adverse to going into the country. One of our leading mem bers told us yesterday that the maxi mum price he had aeard of for first, class field hands was SIOO. Common labor ers of course will be offered much less. Planters manifest a decided opposition to hereafter giving their employees a share of the crop r i hat plan has worked poorly.

When merit alone is made the tett, we will realize go.od results: A Sign of Uio Times. That there is a strong and increasing public sentiment in favor of a reform in the matter of appointments and remov-J als in the civil service of the country, is j evident from the fact that sotno of the 1 most decidedly partisan of our newspa pers are urging the necessity of such a r. f Tin —pointing out the evil results; which attend the custom of removirg! , oornpe'ent and faithful public servants J for political reasons, and filling their 1 plaoes with those who, though perhaps equ illy worthy otherwise, lack the ex perience necessary to a proper fulfil . ment of official duty, and who are thorn s' Ives liable, as soon as that experience has been acquired, to i»e displaced in their turn. There is nc branch of the public service in whioh the workings of : this system prove mere disiis'rous than in the postoffice ; and wc are glad to be lieve, from the above and other indica- I tions, that this obstacle ,to its progress | and u«. fuluess is fairway to be rc ] EQ2 ve 1. i ?

On bunday morning, while some lit tle boys were skating on J’roctoi’s Greek, two and a half miles boyoud (ho Rolling Mill, on the Mason and Turner’s Ferry road, they discovered under tho ice the body and a dead man, with the hair of the head projecting above the ice Af fright wi:h the spectacle, the littte tel lows ran to the house of Mr. Starnes, and reported whit they had seen. An investigation of the mystery at once wa, had, when the body was recognized by several neighborhood acquaintances as that of Mr. Hiram I’roviuce. Mr. Thomas Kyle, tho Coroner, was sent f< r, aud about sundown an inquest was held. The strangest part of this tragedy i< as follows : On ibe 20 b 1 November last, Mr. Province, in company with Mr. Newton Awtry, loft Mr Weaver’s wagon at Proctor’s Creek, enc and a half miles from the place where the body was found. That day they were both in Atlanta. Mr Province having sold his bi-uso for $75, took pa-sage on Weaver’s wagon for heme—the wagon was driven by a son es Mr. Weaver, aged about 14 years, who states that at the above mentioned creek, Awtry and Province left the w»gon together. Since then, although search bad been dili gently hiade, nothing had been seen oi bevel of Mr. Province until Sunday morning, when his body was accidental ly discovered by tbo little boys at play on the icc.
