Handing matter on every page. j The Committee appointed to inves- i tigato the chargos against Gov. Bul lock refuse to allow their proceedings ! published. Tho Committee to investigate the management of the State Road are getting along very slowlv. The Griffin Star in its news summa ry says, of the Penitentiary Committee: Tho Penitentiary Committee has been to Milledgeville and inspected that institution of learning. If they niako a truthful report they will say that a portion of their body ought to Have remained within tho walls of that industrial school. •Peizk Can'dv. —Commissioner Dela no has decided that dealers in Prize Caudy are subject to the same internal revenue tax as Gift Enterprises, viz : $l5O per annum. We learn that the decision will be generally enforced from tho first of tho present month. Ax election for the office of Secretary of the Georgia State Agricultural So ciety will be held on tho 22d of the present month. All members, as well as those who may become members by the payment of $2.00 are entitled to vote. Members who live at a dis tance can vote by proxy, or by en dorsing their ballots to the President. “The Atlanta Sun” is anew candi date for public favor in the corps jour nalistic, several numbers of which have been received, and each one evincing talent as regards not only the editori al, news and other departments of the paper, but also in the mechanical.— We don’t know all the managers, but if rumors are correct we are not sur prised to see it what it is. A writer in tho Atlanta Plantation suggests that the ladies be made per sonally interested in the next Fair, L\ presenting models for standard fash ions for dresses, hats &c , having due regard to taste and economy in every thing pertaining to a lady’s costume— noting those for married as well as single ladies. The object of this is to discard the inordinate love of passion and dress which lias seized upon our ladies in regard to Yankeo fashions A good idea wo think, and hope it will receive more attention. A Dead Issue.— ln those sections where the advocates of a third party seemed most likely to receive any no tice, an entire revolution has been wrought. In the great Northwest the Conservative men are uniting with the Democratic party, and express the be lief that it is the surest way to wrest the Government from Radical rule Iu the Southern States Alabama has taken the lead, and is a unit for De mocracy. The Secretary of the Treasury has communicated to the House of Repre sentatives a list of about 350 Collect ors 6f Internal Revenue in arrears to the Department. In a largo propor tion of the causes the balances against them consist of tax lists charged, but turned over to their slice* ssor in office. The lai-gest of these amounts are sl,- 527,205, $1,042,31)3, $438,000, $441,- 000. Suits have been ordered in 30 eases, embracing an amount of about $3,000,000. o are to understand from tho a* bovo that some of these officers are not as particular to “turn over” then assessments as they are to assess.— W e havo heard of one instance where match vendors were not allowed to strike fire with one for a customer to light a cigar, lest he come under the list of Manufacturers —of fire. Elsewhere we publish a condensed account of an attempted invasion of Canada by the Fenians. Strange that their leaders, men of more than ordinary intelligence, should attempt such a move. Were all the Irishmen on the Continent armed and equipped and thoroughly organized, it would even then be hazardous to attempt such an invasion. It has been sug gested that it was another trick of New England Yankees, not gotten up however, for the benefit of the delud ed Irishmen, hut to have more of the sympathy of the mother country, since ske has lost and is still losing iier influence in the home Government. National Holliday. A national holiday was proclaimed and observed on the 30th of May in honor of the Federal dead. Commit tees were appointed and sent out from Washington to Marietta and Ander sanvilla, to co-operate with their friends in this btato, in the decoration of the federal soldiers’ graves. From tho Macon Telegraph Messenger of tho 30th we learn of the passage through that city of Gov. Bullock and staff on their way to Andersonvillo, and think that tho master of ceremonies acted in a manner unbecoming the occasion and their conduct while in Macon, in stead of being indicative of the sal mission they wore enrouto to perform, was characterized by hiluiity, and hurling the insulting epithet of traitor in tho face of a peaceable but power hiss people roreiga I abor for the South. The question of labor is last assum ing that hold upon the minds of the people that we have desired it should since tho emancipation of the slaves An insight into the prosperity of the North and Northwest has given vigor to tho people of the South. They see an increase of inactivity among the block race, under the present system of government, with no hope of a change until the populational becomes diversified, thereby begetting a kind of rivalry among the laboring classes, and are beginning to awake to a sense of duty to themselves, and wo see ac counts of the formation of Emigra tion Aid Societies springing up in nearly every Southern State. It is useless to enumerate the num ber of emigrants to this country in tho last quarter of a century. Enough for the people of Georgia and other coast States to know, that of tho mil lions who have crossed tho ocean in that period of time, comparatively few have cast their lots with us —and why ? Simply because it was thought that after awhile there would not be enough land for the slaves to cultivate, without opening our ports to the 1 Hid ing of foreigners. Time has proven that we were a misguided people. Tho war for Southern independence has ended, and with it the question for the abolition of slavery forever settled in America. The negroes, according to the amended Consti ution, are our political equals—possess every right that the intelligent whito man does— and in their ignorance abuse their freedom by assuming rights that an exorcise of reason would forbid ; and as a consequence our lands arc grow ing up in stubble—the number ol non-producers so far exceed the pro ducers, that tho scarcity and high prices of provision is beginning to be seriously felt in the cotton States. Is there no remedy for this state ol tilings ? We think there is : Let us get out of the old beaten track which has always kept us a poor, dependent peo ple. Let the Government organize a general system for the introduction of foreign labor, to be co-operated in by lesser lights in every county and p e cinc'. Let every Southern State throw upon their ports for tho reception ol these men of money, energy and mus cle, and by and by the tramp of com ing thousands, as they land on our shores and start out for homes in the interior ill show to the drones that this is no place for thorn, and there is no room here for idle heads and hands. Such results as these are altogether possible, and with tho proper effort thousands of the oppressed of other countries would flock to our border ; and could they bo made to realize the fact that their earthly estates would be enhanced in value, and that they would receive ample reward for their labor, as well as protection under the laws framed by a common people, how eager would they be to get trom under the frowns, of an aristocratic crown. A move in this direction would se cure more for us than all the political campaigns that will be ongaged in for coming generations, and we believe it to b the oily way t j affect that speedy r ev olution so much desired, and so essen tial to our futuio prosperity. Work il Out. We copy from the Philadelphia Ledger the following arithmetical problem, with an invitation to “cipher ers” to work it out: A liquor agent of a New England town held the office for one year, at tho close of which he gave the follow ing statement of his accounts, viz : Amount of cash received upon assuming the 0ffice............532 17 Value of liquor received at the sirne time 57 54 Cash received for sales of liq uor during the year 102 97 Amount paid for liquor bought during the year 59 91 Amount of salary of agent 25 00 Value of liquor on baud at the end of the year 31 37 Does the agent owe the town or does the town owe the agent ? and how much ? The Telegraph y Messenger of the 31st, says: " e learn that about 700 negroes and probably 75 white men, nearly all of whom Were U. S Revenue and Post-office officials, assembled at An dersonville yesterday, for the purpose of decorating the graves of the Feder al dead at that place. Bullock and Terry, with their respective staffs, were of the number, and orations were delivered by an Ohio preacher aoid ex- Confederate i\ ayor, R. H. Whitely, of Bainbridge. We judge that none, or very few of tho negroes of the neighborhood were present, the crowd being gathered mostly from this and other points on the railroad. There were no whites, present, that we could hear of, e- eept those holding office un der the Federal Government in this State.

Notwithstanding our country has, since the last census was taken, been ravaged by a cruel, remorsoloss and devastating civil war, which, for Jlio time being, prostrated almost every branch of industry, ruinod our com merce and well nigh depleted our na tional treasury, the ninth census will, without a doubt, show that we have as a nation grown faster in wealth, prosperity, industry and position than in almost any preceding ton years of our history as a nation. It will show a far greater development in our min eral resources of communication than perhaps any twenty years previous, while, save in those States recently in rebellion, it will present a greutor growth a more rapid expansion and a greater iuraovEitEXi in aokiccxtcre, that great resource of a nation’s wealth, than lias ever been attained in a cor responding time in any nation on tho f'aco of the earth. Considering these facts greater im portance becomes attached to tho prop er and accurate taking of this census than there did to any of the eight pre ceding. By an act of Congress passed May 2d, 1850, tlie United States Marshals are charged with tho important duty of causing all the inhabitants to be enumerated, and to collect all othor statistical information within their re spective districts, subject to the in structions of the Secretary of tho In terior, and to return tho same to tho said Secretary on or bofoio the Ist day id' November next, ensuing, the work to commence on tlio first ot J une Bofore a Marshal enters upon this du ty he must, in addition to the oath taken when he enters upon his duties, require of him in enumerating tho in habitants and collecting statistics, etc., take the oath required by the loth Amendment. Each .Marshal is re quired to separate his district into sub divisions, containing not to exceed 20,- 000 inhabitants each, and to appoint to each sub-division so divided an as sistant, who must, before entering up on his duties, take and subscribe to an oath similar to the one taken by the Marshal. Tho assistants are to perform the service required of them :, y A personal visit A each DWELLIN'*! HOUSE and to each family in tho sub-division assigned to him, and ascertain by in quiries made of some member of each lamily, if any one can lie found capa ble of giving the information ; but if not, then of the agent of such family, the name of ea* h member thereof, the age and place of birth of each, and all other particulars required, and must, in the rural districts, visit personally the farms, mills, shows, mines and oth er places respecting which informa tion is required, and must obtain all such information from the best and most reliable sources tine thing worthy of tho attention of tho public is that, when called upon by an assistant marshal for informa tion in regard to the number, persons’ ages, &c, any head of a family or agent of a family, who shall refuse to give such information becomes liable to A FIXE OF THIRTY DOLLARS, to be sued for and recovered in an ac tion of debt by the assistant to the uso of the United States.
