While we are not sur prised at the r:sult, and please 1 to know that the Democratic party Lave made gains in both States, we are inclined to the opinion that thore is not enough ts unanimity in our ranks to insure suc cess. Wo have Radical Democrats as Well as true old fashioned, negro-loving ard negro-worshipping Radicals, and one is about as dangerous as the 0.1.er. j We have in the Democratic ranks, meu from all the old parties, that were in existence before the war—Northern, Southern, war, Uuion, repudia iou, an t -repudiation, and cv.ry oth r kiud of Democrats that we can think of, agree ing on one subject alone—that is to op. pose Radicalism, but not agreeing as to how this opposition is to be conducted. Ouo wing differs from the other so much that it amounts to positive disaf fection, and thj d.fferent interests rep resented by these different wings are so very unlike, that we have como to tno conclusion that there is but one remedy that will heal all these difference p and the remedy must be applied and that very soon, or wo must make our minds ready to know that Wo w iU j ive under Radical rule tor years after the present administration. The remedy is a wil liogness ou the part of different wings to unite ou the Constitution as it was in the days of peace and prosperity, an te helium; the Constitution as it was when wisdom, justice and modcrat on governed the State-men who had it in keeping j the Constitution of our fath ers j the Constitution as it was before Radicals laid violent hands on it. Lei us all unite on this platform, and then will there he some prospect of get ting from under the rule of Radicalism in the National Councils, aud of Car pet-baggers and Scalawags in our owu loved land.

In compliance wiih the above request I have undertaken to collect ana pub lish at an early day, such information in respect to the mineral resources of Ncrtb Georgia as 1 think, will prove of interest to the public generally. I will be thankful to friends for items of intel ligence in regard to mining, minerals, the best mode for collecting and saving gold, and also the sections where cop per and iron ores are to be found. I desire and expect to attend the ap proaching Sta'e Agricultural Fair at Macon, in November, and would be plearclto take with me specimens of gold, copper and iron ores, found in this section. Those having in their posses sion such specimens will oblige by send ing them to me, for the purpose of ex hibiting at the Fiar. They will be faith fully returned to the owners. If possi ble, I desire to Lavo a written report on the mineral resources of this section of the State, ready for the Press Associa tion by the time the Fair holds its mcet iag- W. P. Price. Tite Soutbside, Va., Times says that seventy negroes passed through Burke yiile for Mississippi last week, and that forty more from that county would fol low to the same destination. Railroad contractors trom Alabama and Missis sippi have eogaged more than a hundred in this city. VVe hear that for f y or fif ty left Buckingham for cotton picking in tbo South, last week. This move ment is becoming general. While the blacks are going South, the Northern whites are prospecting and buying lands in Virginia. Wou dit not bo well for our planters to go to Virginia for laborer ? It is near er than China, aotFthe negro is, without doubt, the best laborer in the world to grow citton.

When wo fir t vi.-ited Daw ion, in 1860, four years after it was lai 1 of , we did net behove it would ever be a plaoe of any importance. The lan.’a lying he tv e i here aid Weston, up aud dowu the railroad, and around on either side, a* far as we had becD, seemed very poor. Jtands* coarso and fine, red levels, dry and thirsty, swamps of scraggy un dergrowth and mean appearance, were the leading characteris ics of the soil.— How 6uch a plaoe could grow, bccutdu late wo Ith, or wield an influence upon society was a q leslion too preposterous to enter ain for a moment. If a turpentine distillery could be put up, tar made, or a cypress pole cut from a neighboring pond ; what else could be done ? Who that wanted a pleasant home, or wished to enjoy the otmforts of life, would come here, cut down the pines, saw them into boards, aud ship away the lumber ? I Did not tho same material abound in o her places of more wealth, intelligence) and enterprise ? Resides, Cuthberf, Ame'-us, and Al bany—the first just below, the second just above, on the same railroad, aud the third just to one side, and closely con nected by a branch of the samo road, were all older, larger, and better estab lish) and. As these places had ibe start, the numerical strength, and the fame of a finer cotton regioo, how could Dawson ri-o, wax instead of wane, flourish in stead of die in their shadows ? Would men of sound sense and fine learning, of well regulated business habits and far reaching ’orecasto ever come hero to stay, to raise their children, to enter them on the lists of honor and useful ness ? Never, was our opinion, just as it would have been yours, unless you bad looked beyond the surfaco of ordi nary events and examined the hidden re lations of cause and effect, as Developed in our new modes of farming, merchan dise, and all the practical businosa of life. But time shows that we were mistaken. Remarkable changes have taken place. Largo farmers are leaving their isolated homes in the country, gathering arouud out railroad towns, seeking a daily mar ket for their products, and making a few acres of land very rich. Men of quick perception passing through our country and discovering that the beautiful plaint around Dawson aro as well adapted to this new system of agriculture as aoy lauds on our long Hdo of railroad, pur chase them with eager haste, aod work them with masterly energy. Evctv ounce of manure is saved,every row in richcd, every fuDco cormr cleaned tut i’ :. -ho whole farm made produce as much as throe times the same nuuile. of ai res yielded iu former times. Gardening is also beginning to receive, among some of our citizens, that degree of attention it has deserved all the time. Horticulturists of science and art, of bone and muscle, aro laboring and expe r'mcDtiog where a few years ago colored w. meu and children were making a scanty supply of inferior colewoits. A large variety of berries, grapes and mcl ons ; of plums, peaches aud apples ; of turnips, tomatoes, fine cabbage, &0., are now on trial f. r the honor of a place in our future gardens. Give us a few more years of labor and experiment io plautiog and raising, in cooking and eat ing, and we will set you as fine a dinner of vegetables as ever gratified the taste of an epicurean prince. The day is coming—ah ! close at hand, when escu lent plants es pulpy growth, and edible graius of golden hue shall gladden the eyo with blooming beauty, and satisfy the appetite with rich nutrition. Who does uot antedate that day, and bail it with rapturous delight as an inalienable heritage of our soil, and an inestimable luxury of honest labor ? Do you not wish, Mr. Editor, that every town and neighborhood in the length and breadth of this fair land would,adopt this remu merative policy at once, and supply their tables wi'h the rich provisions of their own fields and gardens ? This new method of enriching smaller farms, and of cultivating them with al most infinite care, as far as it has been introduced among our citizens, is having a talismanic influence on Dawson. The sound ot plane and chisel, saw and ham mer, hod aud trowel, rings along street and shop, and makes sweeter music to the heart and car of utilitarian enter prise than ever rolled from pipe or or gan. New houses, large and well-built, comfortao.’e rather tbau ornamental, en liven the feelings of domestic wives, give the sweet little children more room to gambol, and make the oil mis ogamist bite bis withered lips with dis- appointment Rooms for dry goods or groceries, for drugs or liquors, for mil linery or mantua-making, for repairing guns or watches, for shoeing man or beast, for storing ootton, or any other commodity, have multiplied along the sides of Court rquare, and op and down Main street, until well nigh as much business is done in Dawson as in any city from Macon, Ga., to Eufaula, Ala. If this remark is true, as the writer has been told, only give her credit for tho past and let her future courso be onward and upward, and swifter in the path if prosperity until her establishments shall uUI-ilUUlUar tUu <-*, UCt-lloU. Ul lit . Ul - sanguine cuizus. And while wo ad mire other places, aud feel a deep inter est in their common welfare, lot us fos ter wirh honest pride all our own iusti tutions, from the eating mil ,on to the ho tel, from the tannery to the foundry from the carriage for a horse of flesh and Mood to the car for a horse of iron flame and fi:ry brea h. Rut if Wo stop to writo of each busi ness house in order, or of each doctor aod lawyer of eminence, and last, though not least, of cur Editor, we shall have no time to write anything of our schools and churches, designed more especially for the intellectual, moral and spiritual welfare of our race. We must confess wiih reluctant shame and mortifying re gret that wc have bo fine colleges, en dowed by munificent benefactors, incor porated by Legislative enactment, aDd conducted by men of distinguished tal ents aud attainments, for graduating our sous and daughters. Rut these higher Boats of learning, far more valuable than many of our hardy yeomanry aro willing to believe, or some of our unlettered uni son* are prepared to appreciate, are cer tainly not essential to scholastic tram ing. It may ho a more d.lßoult task to create in the mind of a pupil here an ar dout thirst for knowledge than in Ath ens, Ga, or Oxford, England. Rut does the fact that it is a more difficuli tusk prove that it is impossible, or that one of our owu teachers may not accom plish it? This desire onco brought to ihe focus of continued action the work will be as surely done as life aud health last. The end is as certainly connected with the means in this case as tho effect follows the causo in aoy of tho other op erations of nature. Why may not Mr. Scaife, a graduato of a rcspcoiahlo col- lege, and a teacher of large experience, seize upon this mysterious principle in Hie mind of one of his own pupils and create such a burning thirst for knowl edge as nothing can ever satisfy but deep draughts from the I‘ierian spring ? And why may not this fount, best of all the waters of earth, be found gushing as fresh here from the deep principles of nature as it over gurgled up around Mouut Parnassus, or any other mount of learning in ancient or modern times? Resides, all the rest engaged ia the goi-d work, Mr. Goodwin, as we are told ( is expected another year to orgauize and conduct the female school. If his gifts and grace justify him in taking such a responsible position, as wo have every reason to. believe from all we have heard aud s -en, then the question of sending our daughters to other institutions, no better prepared to impart the ordiuary sciences of the day, nor oven the finer principles of esthetics, is settled. Ev ery man of fine intelligence whoso finan cial aeumeu has been sharpened by ex perience will save an unnecessary ex pense, aud thereby teach his daughter the science of economy bettor than be could have done by sending her away. The further she goes from home, and tho larger tho number of her new ac quaintances, tho greater the tendency to artificial habits, and all the uDscxing ab normities of this fast age. Give her ac cess to the largest universities, to the practice of law and medicine, to the elec tive franchise and political hucksteragei to all the privileges and prerogative* of masculine life, and you transplant her into a foreign soil, and take from her the richest fragrance of all her domestio charms. Rut it is not our purpose to dwell on extremes, nor even to condemn any of the innovating tendencies of the day, tut to inform tho people that we are making an effort to establish and main tain excellent male and female schools. Nor will we stop without the accom plishment of the fact. A better loca tion cannot le found. Fewer people die here, to the population, unless we aro mistaken, than almost any place of the same size in Georgia. 'Nature and art combine to give us beauty in rolling plains and regular streets. Citizens, old aud young, if larger and smaller means are uniting and concentrating, with few exceptions, to make our educational en terprises a blessing to all our people. We have the teachers, the patrons, aaa, best of all, we have the children, many of them already under way and bent on success. What, now, is to keep them from acquiring languages, mastering the highest principles of mathematics, train ing their minds to thought, snd winning as grecua wreath of literary fame as the students at our more honored seats of learning ? And why may not any mam who wishes to educate his sons or daugh ters from home, safely send them to one of our academies, to learn how to study and to apply knowledge, to be an honor to himself and ornaments to society ? Our churches we must not forget They aro the climax of all the rest. One of them culminates in a spire of archi tectural beauty 6eventj-fire feet above the level of the ground. Tho other is tall and large, finished without and with, in, largely attended and faithfully con ducted by a graduate of the University at Fetifield. The one already mentioned is built of the best material, seats a large congregation every Sabbath, numb ers more than a hundred pupils in the Suu day school, and io all it, appointments. g-i- .a IU u Cl')-' l in i • o • moud of the fir»i water _V, w for these saored institutions, embracing a large share of cur best taleu r , wielding a won derful it fl leocu over the minds of ad iur people, forcing the worst forms ol vice to yield obodiet.ce or retreat to dar ker siuußa, should not our hearts swel, with lasting gratitude ?

And if we have departed from the faith if a correspondent, or violated any of tho rules of a Jraler calami , lit someone of the honored fraternity ex tend a hind of charity, and draw us back to the path of literary rectitude Rut if your patiguco should be exhaust ed, and if you should feel it a duty to pursue us with the lash of criticism, do remember, brother, as you apply the chastisetbent, huinanum est errare.
