A vide in first class passonger roadies, “second to none in the State,” over the Macon & Brunswick Road brought us to this, tho City by the Sea.. And well might it be called the “01|y of Oaks,” as on every street, amfeduany of the lots, can bo seen luoife" magnificent, wide-spreading livi>.oWks, interspersed with the cedar. Thtire is much more of life and activ ity here than wo expected to see. A large lumber business is done, and the stores seem to bo doing a fair busi ness. The carpenter’s hammer and saw can be heard and seen on most all portions of what is called “New Town, and City Commons.” and occa sionally can be soon substantial build ings going up in the old town. The shipping in the Port consists of four ships loading with lumber, and one Schooner discharging 500 tons of rails for tho 11. it A. It. R. Wo were pleased to meet Col. Sclat ter, Chief Engineer, and Col. Ilulbert, Superintendent of the B. & A. Road, And interview with these gentlemen led us to believe that the coming crop of cotton, or at least some portion of it, will pass ovur this road from tho city of Albany. We wore cared for and bountifully feasted by Mr. Flanders, the Proprie tor of tho Ocean House. Such fish and oysters as \\ ere served on his table are rare boats to a piny woods laud lubber. Mr. Winton, a member of the City Council, and Mr. W. B. C. Coker showed us over the city, and surround ings, and we came to tho conclusion that all that uas wanting to make Brunswick a city, was men, money, and hjuses. Tho location is all that could be asked for—nature has dono her part—it rests with man to do the bal ance. Whilo we find many doubting “Thomas’s” outside, wm find none in Brunswick. All aro confident that a few years will toll the tale, tho ashes will be shaken off, and the city by tho soa will occupy that position na t iio intended she should. Col Hous ton, the Mayor of the city, was absent on our arrival, but returned during our stay. We are under obligations to him for courtesies extended. A short visit to the sanctum of the Append found Bros. Smith and Full- Avood in good cheer, looking forward to the day when a Power Press will be needed to do the work of tho office. We leave to-night for our little pet place on Dunn’s Lake in the land of dowers. Volume XV. With this issue the Fourth Volume of the Journal closes ; and as we re cur to the past, reaching hack to the time when the present manager en tered ujion his career as editor we ask ourselves, “have we ever uttered a word, or advanced an idea calculated to enhance the public good ?” That, we leave for the public to decide. One thing we are conscious of having dono -—viz: To bar our columns agaimjt eve rything pertaining to immorality of every kind, and havo, to the best of our judgment, published such articles as would entitle the Journal to the name of a weekly newspaper. And just here we have a word for the ears of those who are disposed to grumble at ti;o scarconoss of reading matter in the newspapers to which they sub scribe. For instance : since the open ing of tho present volume of the JockStal, to. its close with the present issue, wo have p übliahod about six hundred columns of reading matter, the greater portion of which has keen from the pas of our wisest and best men, on a multitude of subjects. This, if compiled and published in book form, would make a “Scrap Book” worth five times the mowey paid for the paper in any other than a newspaper form. We aro not trying to unjustly vindicate our cause, and will merely suggest that there are greatei swindles that receive public patronage than political or literary newspapers. Thankful for the patronage so liber ally bestowed in the past, we will be gin the work of “making up” another volume, by giving publicity to hap penings here and there—the upholding with might and main of our domestic interests. "With increasing numbers to the list of church members in the various denominations —with good schools, aid they well pupiled with the youth of the land, who are in future to sway ;h< sceptres of Church and State— u I ill a reasonable share. of health, ! nixi marked activity in all branches of ti ado—-let us forget that, even accord ing ti the rulings of the “Freedinen’s Aurea l” negroes are our equals sociallv —let, us forget all tho political evils by which ive are surrounded—and go on prospering and to prosper, until the volumes of our existence shall close, and Finis be written by tho hand of time upon the tablot of every heart. The Situation. In our last issue, we gave a brief sketcli of Avliat had been dono in the Georgia Legislature up to the 31st of January, when both house were ad journed to meet on Wednesday, the 2d inst. As the nows of that day’s proceed ings re:-tehed us too late for the last issue, wo give it now, — Avhich were, to ho brief, the hoai ing read of a proclamation from the Governor, and tho ratification ofthe Fourteenth «n dFifteentoenth Amend ments. We copy below tho Atlanta Corres pondence of tho Savannah Republican, in full, Avho, after some preliminary re marks about the Gov. Message, gives his views, which “tally” with ours about the future policy of Bullock and his cohorts: Atlanta, Thursday, Feb. 3. Boar Republican : The Legislature adjourned yoster day morning until the 14th, after adopting the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments and listening to the Gov ernor’s Message, said to have been written by Judge McCay, of the Su preme Court. The document is evi dently the Avork of a sharp, shrewd lawyer, avlio is accustomed to mako the most of a bad case. The whole message avus written and gotten up for Northern consumption, and is ex pected to aid in shaping the addition al legislation which Bullock requires to put the State completely under his control. * The present status is not at all sat isfactory. Angier holds the Treasury and many of the officers appointed by him have proved themselves to be in dependent and incorruptible, aud tliis is not in his programme. Angier’s neAvs from Washington was a terrible blow to the Bullock party. As ho tells it, Grant and both the Shermans, Edmunds, Trumbull, Caipenters and others assured him that under their construction of tho Reconstruction Acts all was accom plished when tho negroes were reseat ed, and tho ineligible Democrats dis placed—that the substitute doctrine Avas not in the bill—’that all the acts done, or elections had, or officers ap pointed and confirmed, before the blacks Avere unseated, Avould be held good, and that upon a compliance with the law and the adoption of the Fifteenth Amendment, Messrs. Hill and Miller would be admitted to their seats in the Senate. When the news got abroad, the swearing Avas “tremendous,” and Grant and Sherman and the Senators named Avero charged Avilh falsehood, double dealing and almost all other crimes by the extreme Radicals. The gang of carpet-baggers wore especially “tlustrated, and I’rince and Clift put out on yesterday for Wash ington to rectify things and reinstate the failing fortunes of Skowhegan. It is thought that a heavy and dos perate fight will come off between Prince and Clift, and Morrill and oth er carpet-bagjers who aro in Wash ington, and the men Avho desire to act with some show of principle and jus tice toward the down trodden and persecuted people o.f Georgia. lam infermed from reliable Republican sources that Bullock aud the carpet baggers aro in bad odor at tho capitol, and there is a very general disposition to give them the cold shoulder. My informant says that General Grant is becoming restive, and has frequently expressed, the wish that Georgia should ho brought back Avithout de lay. The next ten days will tell the whole story, and I look Avith some hope for good results. In this busy, sensational town one hears all sorts of nows. I give you some of the plans proposed for action when the Legislature convenes : Ist. It is proposed to pass a law requiring a test oath from all persons holding office in Georgia, and it will be so drawn as to exclude all persons but carpet-baggers and runaAvays. 2d. It is understood that the Su preme Court is to be reorganized. Warner is to be ousted and Dawson and Walker put in his place. 3d. Changes in the Superior Court Judges are also to bo made. It is 1 conceded that Judge Schley wilT lie displaced by that sturdy, patriot and much beloved citizen of Savannah, a Mr. Stone, who has been displaying his b sard al>Out the Executive head quarters for the past week. This is glorious ! 4th. Heaven and earth, and hell if necessary, will be invoked to displace Dr. Angier, for if ho remains Bullock thinks reconstruction a miserable sham and failure. Since the last session, Kimball has raised his sight,*, and will now want a half million to cover all his outlay and make anything by the “spec.”— The Opera House and contents would not sell in market overt for more than one hundred thousand dollars, but the legislature will be asked for five times that figure, and tine is the way the people’s money goes. What will become of the men who put themselves on the record in favor of this huge swindle when the true men of Georgia once more get the power ? Snoo, Fly. To Those Interested. Hon. David W. Lewis, Secretary of the Georgia State Agricultural Socie ty, publishes a card in Macon Tele graph, in w hich he says : “Persons having demands for premiums will : leave applications lor the same with ' Mr. Wing. Those having moneyed demands will tile them with Mr. Wm. Hazlehurst the Treasurer of the Soci ety. I will, on my return to this city, early in February examine and settle all that are regular.” i A VI, mmoriii i fr«m Peimqlva* ■ Milt against ileifru feiiltra|(c. Can it be that our present law-ma kers are wisor men than were Adams Jefferson, Webter, Clay, Douglas aud Lincoln ? or is it true that the changes of time have brought into powor those ■Avho would sacrifice every principle of honor, and some who would even mix with the brute creation for the sake of personal gain. We think tho latter conclusion the moro probable. Read what Mr. Patton, of Pennsylva nia, says of the Status of tho negro, and the opinion of the illustrious doad on the subject of negro equality : That negroes did nothing toward the establishment of our independ ence ; that those of the South, instead of being loyal during the late rebell ion, supported the cause of the rebels with their labor, and aided in the con struction of rebel fortifications; that the negroes are, intellectually aud or ganically, the lowest in the scalo of capacity and intelligence of all tho five races into which the human fami ly is divided, and are the connecting link with tho brute creation, and have no claim to lineage or unity of descent from our common ancestor, Avho was tho finishing work of the six days’ creation, nor fawn any of his lineal descendants, eitner before or since the deluge ; and as the Almighty has set his mark of condemnation upon a mixture of the black and white races by limiting the extent of their admix ture, sometimes to the third and al ways to the fourth generations while ho permits the crossings between all nations of the white race to continue without interruption through all ages, and with healtliy and improved prog eny ; therefore, it is foul treason to our race, and rebellion against the law oi God, to encourage a mixing up of the white and black races; that the a mendments to the Constitution which have given equality to the black with the white race wero adopted under duress, and by forcing upon the South ern States illogally an unqualified vot ing element, and those States aro therefore not bound to abide by such a forced adoption. Mr. Patton invites the attention of Congress to the opinions of the follow ing eminent and patriotic men on tho question of negro equality. John Adams said : “I have never read reasoning more absurd, sophistry more gross * * * than the subtile la bors of Helvetius and Rosseau to dem onstrate the natural equality of man kind.” Thomas Jefferson said: “Nothing is more certuinly written in the book of fate than that these people (the ne groes) are to be free; nor is it loss certain that the two races, equally free, cannot live under the same Gov ernment.” Daniel Webster said : “If any gen tleinau from the South shall propose a scheme, to be carried out by this Gov ernment upon a large scale, for the transportation of the colored people to any colony or any place in the world, I should be quite disposed to incur al most any degree of expense to accom plish that object” Henry Clay said : “Os the utility of a total separation of the tAVO incongru ous races of our population (supposing it to be practicable) none have ever doubted. The mode of accomplishing that desirable object has alone divided pnblio opinion.” Stephen A Douglas said: “I be lieve this Government was made by Avhito mon, for the benefit of white men and their posterity forever ; and I am in favor of confining its citizen ship to white men, nxen of European birth and descent, instead of confer ring it upon negroes, Indians and oth er inferior races.” Abraham Lincoln said ; “I am not aud never have been in favor of mak ing voters- and jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white, and I will say further in addition to this, that there is a physical difference between the wliite aud black races, which I believe will forever forbid the two races living on tercrts of social and po litical equality.” —Baltimore Gazette.

Effects of the Confederacy.-- Three years ago Government made an agree ment with Frazier, Trenholra & Cos., for the settlement of the effects they had on hand as agents of the late Con federate States, and which were claim ed by. the United States as public pro perty. This agreement, if consummated, would have placed, in the Treasury half a million dollars in gold. An agent of these parties is now here to induce the Government to compromise the matter by taking their promisory notes for SBOO,OOO in currency and dismissing all legal proceedings a gainst them here and in England. Frazier, Trenholm k Cos., have, it i# said, several million dollars’ worth of landed estate in the South, all of which, is under an injunction, by or der of the court, to satisfy claims of the Government. An interesting case will soon be made of it before the Uni- . ted States Courts. Social Equalty. —Speaking of Rev els, the negro Senator from Mississip pi, a Washington dispatch of the 2nd says: “His Avife, who is a shade blacker, was in the gallery, and Sena tors Sumner and Tipton went up and were introduced, and sat beside her for a few moments?^ Let them try it in June if they want to. United States Treasurer Spinner says ho has received from a Gorman financier a statement that he has dis covered a plan by which the United States can return to specie payment without the use of specie, and Spinner is inclined to believe that there is some tiling in it. And Avhy not? We aro constantly hearing of things quite as curious. Mother, mny I jo Irani to swim? Ye», my darhiig daughter; Ilnng your clothes on a hickory limb, But don't go near the water. And, besides, them is said to be a man over in Indiana who can catch himself by tho coat-collar and hold himself out at arm’s-long Xi. The George G. Wright whom the lowa Legislature has elected to the United States Seiate from March 4 .h, 1871, till March I th, 1877, is a broth er of that Governor of Indiana who suggested in one >f his messages some years ago that the hydraulic rain should bo tried with a view of improv ing the breed of sheep. The newly elected Senator has had the absurduty of the suggestion explained him fully —-as fully, at least, as he is capable of comprehending t-—and there is be hoved to be little or no danger tuat he will repeat it in Congress.
