Will Differ, The past week We have been encour •god by friends in our iff ’rts at journal i tn. True; wo caa’t p’eise every eae ; in fact, doa’t try to; it we did, we would not pleas • ourselves. One t-ay-', “give us ra >re anecdotes, more f'cu and frolic;" another say s, “diu’t bo so fool ish,” aHd another says, “give us a little more politics.” Now, on this last named sulj-.ct we would like to please our readers, but in this, as well as all other eubj :cts, wc have our peculiar utfions. About all the polities wc have is to defeat the Rad icals when we have a chance to d<> so at the ballot box. We can’t conceive we could do good by c >titiuu*l ly abusing theViany in power, u>r can we expect for our advice or cuuncil to charge them iu their course. Rot them have rope, and our word-for it, th--y will he tied, band and foot, wheu conies the time to vote for better men. If wo could have our readers to learn their sit nation, personally, pecuniarily, and in- still iuto them a determination to learn more of. the science of agriculture, to be more determined to buihl op thuir shat tered fortunes, to think less ot dress and more of work, to know that still they have an inheritag’, the richest on earth, viz: A coun’ry in which can ;c raised King Cotton, and then soc to it that we raise two b iles of this monster where we now raise only one if we can do this, wo imagine we wil have done more good than we would have done by filling our columns with abusive epithets of Grant pnd his lesser lights. Let them severally alone, and when conics the time to vote, then cry wolf!: wolf I acd'if every man will fly to the rescue of his country we can remive th -so iu power and redeem our loved land. There aro other interc.ts that should interest us all. There is uogood sense iu send ing off our cotton to bo made into the different fabrics, necessari y making the consumer pay freight both ways. If we would determine io cur minds to stop this wc could do it The avid ;8 of every practicable man, N>rth and South, bear u* out in this assertion. Cotton can be made into tbre id and cloth cheap •r in the Sjuth than in the Eist. ns North. Let u«,turn our attention to manufacturing, thereby reap the profits now being rnado by a people who bavo no use for us, only to make money ou' or our short-sightedness Again, we wish it were in our power to control the capital, the shipping, the business men of our seaports, if we oould, we would leash them that it is not absolutely necessary for our cotton to go to New York before going to L;v s.-pool. So long as we pay our tithes to AVall rtreet, just so l >ng wiil wa uo necessanly yield the difference between Uia exportation to ]) : verpool diret aud the suae pniat via New York. ? urprisliiK. Judge Whitikcr, of the Atlanta In telligencer, denouuces the Constitution asi “a eoaterop ihle sheet, witb no fixed purpose raore than to and deceive an honest and upright oommr- C 1. 1- W. Avery, Editor of the Constitution, requests of the Judge a re traction of tbe language, and sends the ooununti ation by afiieid Judge Whit aker answers that be was not thinking of Col. Avery editorially or personally but had reference to the Proprietors.— Col. Avery accepts the explanation and Uie matt;r rests. Now, what surprises us is to know that editors and proprietors of newspa pers have,, or take, the privilege of abus ing eaoh other through their columns. It is not our plaaie to read Judge Whi - aker a lecture, but nevertheless think it would have been better for Lira and the oountry to have gone to the proprietors of the Constitution aud told them, in, per son what he thought of their paper and settled the matter on the spot. Away with this practice, and let ns have chari’y, one for another, and if nothing will do but a fight, take it fisti cuff aud not talk about pistols and cof foe for two, especially if we have a wife aud little ones Gkn Butleb AttUESTED—A tele gram from Washington, uudor date of the L9th, says : Gen Butler has been arrested in New York, charged by Mrs. Florence,of New Orleans, with having taken three swords presented to G*'B..Twiggs by tbe United btatea Congress and (states of Georgia and Texas, valued at $35,000, and a box of silver, $2 000. He claimeu that the sworos bad been deposited ill tbe 'ireasury Department, but inquiry proved that such was not tbe case. He was held in $15,000 bail. Tub Dawson Manufacturing Cos. re ceived a premium for the best Freight Railroad Car at the State Fair. Hon orable mention was mads of Holt’s Cct ton Chopper and Thomas’ Water Wheel. The Revolution Coiiimetived. In a oouutry like this, where the poo pie ure free to f- rm their own opinion* onptib io ass irs and give them < xpte.-si. u ia the form of law, no ereat error or j outrage can long exist. Whaiev.r may i be thr mult of periodical popular ex- j citemeut, there is always succeeding it a sober second thought that corrects ev ery evi*. _ _ | The result of the recent election in | the State of New York is most impor- ' taut in its bearings upon- the political prospects of the whole country. It is the commeocerusot ol a revolution in public sentiment that is destitt- and t« -pread-all l ver the country,leaving pros trate iu its path nearly ail the roeve mr-iita of Kidioal u*urpa'ion and wrong. In a speech delivered by Gov. H ffman a few days ago, be declared, as one of the re.-ults of tho victory, the j repeal of the whole system of legisia- ; tion euae'ed by the R.'publican party | during the past eight years, and a re?- i loratiun ol the people of New N rk to j all their rights, including sclf-govrrn- | rneut, of which they bavo been ruth- | lessly p’undcred by a rcvoltri nary fac tiou This will do for a beginning.— , The impression has long been that the Republican party wa* iuviootbh —that their means were so great at.d their .mode if using them so utterly stand, p ed and reckless, that it was ut’i r temer ity to oppose them. They have held the country iu a so ft of terror, and canoed things wi;h a high band, ju t because the people were afraid to oppose them. Thank G>d they have at last over reached them-rlves and developed a weak point, thr ugh whieh the enemy are rushing and the entire fortress must fall. The f sample of the great 8 ute |of New York w’tll exercise a powerful influence throughout the North, mid we shall soon seo in every Btato meu throwing off the chains of party and s’rikini! for their liberties. Even io Radical Minnessota, the telegraph in forms us the vote for Governor i* so close that it is impossible srhout the fficul returns to tell who is elected. The XVth Amendment has gone down (or “up”) amidst the execrations of the people, and with it will full the party •hat dared attempt such an outrage on a free peop e.— SaciVin'th Republican. The Eolith in (he Norl’.i. biumiEux recuberat on One of the most auspicious circum stances connected with the Southern situation is the Lep-interest manifested by the peopl ■ in their Sate and local agricultural t xhibitions. Ihe Virgin m F.ir drew together a very large con course of people Irom all over the 8 ate, /and the di-play surpassed) any at tending a Northern B'ate K-irf-.r tnany j Car s. Fur hcftirchiudj ibe r ir gtnia papers a- voted u u h space to it, aud tho people were urged day after day 10 contribute in cvrrv way in their power to make the exhibition a com plete success, and such it proved to be in every respect.

The i.’crest manifested in ihe-e and similar cxbibi tons at the ■South surpasses ar-ything of the Vi and wc bavo • xperienead here ut the North in a long time. It indicates the dawn of an agricultural era at the 8 'u-h, that the people have at last begun tn apply th< mseivus to the dcvolopmen’ of their agricultural rcsuurc s. And in so do ing they Lave begun to lay the ioumiii tions of future waaith and greatness.

Having never for a moment d'-übted that the injunction against tbe Bruns wick & Albany Railroad, obiatued through sly practice, by tbs groat Cen tral Railroad, and a sow of their satel lijet?, would be dissolved by Judge Ses sions, we do uot feel so jubilant as some of our weak kneed friends, However, it is glorious news ! and we give tbe simple announcement prominence. An nexed fiud copy of order: "Ou reading the bill of complaint and affidavits, aud on bearing the argu ments ot counsel of the respective par ties, it is ordered, that the temporary ’I junction, heretofore existing in tbe above entitled cause, be, aud the same : is, hereby dissolved.

The Doctor does not make these statements because he considers himself more skillful than those other physicians, but simply because he sincerely believes that the remedies width he employs will prove much more efficacious, and are more completely adapted to the treatment of diseases, especially those of a Chronic nature. AFFLICTED, READ CAREFULLY I Consider seriously and act immediately. Call at once at his roams, as the Doctor charges nothing for consultation and advice. The Doctor furnishes all the necessary remedies at once to remove the complaint thor oughly and permanently, at a very reasonable price. The Doctor, il he can cure you, or even benefit you, will tell you so ; if be cannot,, he will so inform you, and will not take your case in band.
