Our oxcliangus show that tho IJatli i ttl jmrtv nt tho North are tired out of tho Uoorgia case, and want it tlis jwisml of, and if wo are to believe what we see, they are softening down in favor of the old state; but we are in the hands of politicians, and they on ly know what is to he our doom. The latest nows from Washington is not at all cheering: Wasiiixoton, May 10. —The House (\>niniitteo on Reconstruction propos ed in lieu of the Senate amendment, to re-introduce the original Georgia bill with the ad< ition of the employ ment of militia, omitting ltinglmm’s amendment. They propose leaving the terms of office to judicial decision. No action. The subject will be re sumed Thursday. f.rftt'r from Duwkus!. The friends of Dawson are not con fined to her populace alono, as will be seen from tho following extracts from a letter to the Macon Daily Journal , and even the passer-by can readily peree.vo the gust of ambition in our little city, so prominent are its features. We agree with the correspondent in his political conclusion, especially as refers to tho third party : Dawson, Ga., May 3d, 1870. Kioto its Journal : This evening finds your corresjiondent in that (some times) unpleasant situation by travel ers termed “left. ’ But if all travelers lind my surroundings, under similar circumstances, the disappointment would invariably lie overshadowed by something better. It is hard for u man to ho “blue'’ when his craw is full of splendid, juicy barbecue, and tho goodthings which accompany it in a May (lay celebration. And then Daw son has tho jolliest set of fellows to mingle witli imaginable, In a nut shell I am satisfied. As your readers know, Dawson has been to a large extent, built up since the close of the diflieulty with our Northern friends (?) and is generally conceded to be the liveliest town, con sidering size, in Southwest Georgia.— Tho railroad books show that she re ceives and s*dls as many goods as some places with a third more inhabi tants. With tho enterprise, and the capital of some other Southwest Geor gia towns, she would soon be the “head centre” of this section. The Dawson Manufacturing Com pany are adding to their already ex tensive works, and increasing their facilities for turning out their splendid railroad cars, which are rapidly gain ing favor with all the railroad men of the couniry. Tho indomitable I’resi dent, Major O. O. Nelson, and work ing superintendent, Mr. H. Atkinson, are the men for their places, and back ed by a live, energetic company, are likely to make it, one day, one of tho most extensive and important manu facturing establishments in tho South. Politically, 1 find tho people gener ally amazingly “docile”—the action of those in power having fully “tired their disgust. ’ Here and tli re i liud would-be political giants, who liave never commanded a “posish” in any of tho existing parties, and 1 al most think, and am strongly tempted to say, they desire a “new party” and “new men,” with tho hope that a fresh wave will bring them to tho sur face. “Only this and nothing more.” E. G. li i<*lliiio>i<i S>i*n»ti*r. Great misfortunes are often follow ed by results that, in some measure, justify the old faith that they are dis guised messengers bearing blessings. (tut of the heaviest disasters we often lind some compensating advantage will spring. The late severe calamity, which has spread deeper gloom so widely over our own already depressed people, is at least followed by somo things which are well calculated to bring consolation and to soothe the general grief. The cordial expressions of sympathy, which have been drawn from those (quarters deemed less kind ly than others to us, peculiarly grati fying to persona situated as we are.— Wo have extracted from the Northern newspapers, within a few days past, much that exhibits a generous and manly sympathy*. The New York World expresses the hope that that the feeling of profound sorrow and commiseration which has been a waked in all parts of the country by the appalling accident at liicbmond, may be productive of some good re sults. “If it shall contribute to bridgo over or close up the gulf which has for the last nine years—lour years of | war and live years of hostile peace— prevented the flow of any genuine good will, this terrible visitation will not beau uncompensatedeviL” That icwspuper expresses deep regret that all these years of acrimonious peaco have developed umong the Northern people none of this relenting, none of j the generous magnanimity which a sentiment of humanity accords to a fallen and prostrate foe. It regrets that the Northern people have nut held their Southern brethren “as we held the lest of mankind—enemies in v ar; in peace, friends.” Hut the 1 World believes that the dreadful acci- ] dent which hits put Richmond in ' mourning excites a generous sorrow,! which we hail as a symptom of the z*o- ' turn of better feelings. The sudden ' awakening of sympathy by the recent calamity is favorable to the progress of this salutary feeling. “It revives tilt* sentiment of a common humanity tuth our Southern br< thren which lias been almost extinguished since the outbreak of the war. If such a ca lamity was to happen, wo have no reason to regret that tho scene of it was at the late capitol of the Southern Confederacy.” The newspapers, with out distinction of party, exhibit such evi lences of cordial feeling as almost to induce us to forget that there has been so much rancor displayed tow ards us in tlie past, and to htqw that there w ill he loss of it in tho future. In the following jmragraph the ll'orld gives forcible expression to a reflection that has, doultloss, occurred to many of us : “A few years ago, the slaughter of ton times the sumo number of its poo hy our soldiers would have occasioned exultation instead of sorrow; and even a more accident, like tho present, had it happened during the war, would have been looked ujh.hi with very dif ferent feelings from those it now awak ens. The fact that our whole people arc touched by this sudden affliction, and manifest a spontaneous sorrrw, betokens some abatement and decay of tho old animosities ; and after we have been melted into sympathy by so tragic an occurrence, there will he less and less disposition to regard our countrymen as enemies” The Philadelphia Inquirer expresses a similar feeling. Tho Inquirer speaks in feeling terms of those who have been deprived, by this accident, of those upon whom they had to lean for support. “To such w« should extend not only condolence, lmt practical as sistance. In those bettor, happier, and more reasonable times of peace, we should testify to our brethren of the South that our memories do not go behind the day and the hour of their tribulation, and that wo give them our sympathy and aid as freely as we feel they would give it to us were wo tho sufferers. Let us, through the great calamity that has fallen up on them, show to the people of the South that, with all records of the war swept into the past, we feel for them in their bereavement as brother feels for brother; und that in marching on to ‘the music of the Union’ it is not a Union of sham and Reconstruction laws, hut a Union of fellowship and good feeling.” Expressions such as these do more to awaken the feelings of ancient at tachment between discordant sections than laws and armies could do. We j take pleasure in repeating the gener ous words of our Northern cotempora ries. We rejoice at everything which tends to that restoration of real har mony and friendship, which can be brought about by words and acts like those that our recent calamity have brought out in the North. They feed tlie hope that the influences of a real peace and ready to assume sway over tho powerful and the oppressed sec tion of a great and common country. —Richmond linquinr. TO /III: i»( UI.IC.

Mr. Editor :—Noticing an article in the Savannah News attributing the late accident to the excursion train to Brunswick to a defect in the road, a regard to the facts compels me to be lieve that it was not wholly duo to this cause. Our speed at the time was not apparently unusually great —was not enough, from the mere lateral motion, to displace the rails or move the road hed. The fault, as I think, was chief ly in the character of the forward car. It was old and rickety. My attention on the way to Brunswick, was drawn to the opening and shutting of the seams, as the ear swung from side to side ; and upon our arrival I examin ed the wheels and the trucks. The flanges of the wheels I observed were not as high by one-half as on the oth er cars ; and instead of standing on the inner line at a right angle with the running surface of the wheels, was connected with it by a flattened curve, which extended nearly to the outer edge of the flange. It occurred to me at once how easi- ly a sharp lateral motion would cause the wheel to slip over the rail, and I made up my mind to avoid that car on the way back. On the way to Brunswick this car war the lust in the train. While there it was moved in front, so that on the return it had the surge of two heavily loaded cars be hind it. It was moreover a post otfiee car.—war partitioned off in the usual way, with seats only in the hinder | pui*t. This part, therefore, only had | the load. The car was entirely with | out weight in front. The pull of tho I engine in front and tho drag of the i train behind would tend to lighten tho front wheels still more, so ttiat a very slight lateral motion would lift the worn out flanges over the rails, and this, I think, combined with the spring of tho road bed in the swamp, was the cause of the disaster. I write this to draw the attention to the mistake, which it may be is often j made, in putting inferior and worn ' out cars, lightly loaded, in front of heavy trains. * E. I*. B.

These children, to help and aunt who was supp< r ing them, adopt ed this means to atld afe w pennies to thoir scanty income, with the above result. This is n good Government. The bond holder, with his millions invested in that which brings lum gold in abun dance, pays no taxes while orphan children, for earning a few penies, are fined and made to pay a license for gathering from the woods and selling on the streets remedial agents to tho value, perhaps, of a dollar a week.
