The deepes* water in the Atlantic is oft the island of St. Helena, which has been sounded 27,000 feet, or over live mi es. The Fori Valley Gazette of Satur day says the crops in that vicinity ate looking well. The wheat is being liar vested and is turning out better than was expected. Corn is growing rap idly, and promises an abundant yield Cotton was n v-.-r Belter. tier. ]. iDgstrcet publishes a letter in a New Orleans paper of the slb ins'.: which contains the following paragraph, “ The military bill and amendments ar peaoe offerings. We should accept then aa a startiog point from which to meet the future political issues as they may wise.” Wendell Phillips has thrown the highest colored card—the next highest io the dcc v . In a speech nt Bosfor. on Wednesday, he demanded that a ne gro shall be placed on the Radical tick ct as a cand'c te for Vice President. The extent of the iron trade of tic tity of Boston is truly astounding. The Commercial Hvltiin says that in one of the ten districts of that city the amount of iron annua’ly weighed reaches 100,- 000,000 pounds. Most of the iron brought there ccme from England and Sweden. Registers in Bankrupsoy.— It is announced in the Savannah Republican that Chief Justice Cha?e has appointed Joshua Hill Register iD Bunkmptcy for the Northern District of Georgia, and that Wm. S. Hcsscltine, of Savannah, has received the appointment ftr the Southern District. ** j- Information Obtainable.- During the war a Georgi an named Arm strong, in the Ccnfedeato Eaval tervice loat his life near Bermuda Hundred on <he James liver. Ilis relatives can get a clue to bis grave by addressing Mr. William Randall, Purser of the Bay Line Steamer, Baltimore, Maryland. Papers in the State will please crpy. General Miguel I.oj cz, an officer h : gh in Maximilian’s confidence, ar.d two other Imperial genera’s, caused the fall of Queretero by selling one of the principal forts Maximilian, on surrendering, made these requests: 1. That he should not be insulted, but treated as a prisoner of war. 2. If nny were to be shot, that tic should be the first. 3. If shot, his body not to be abused.’ Imports op Wheat—The New X ork Express says ; In 1830 a great deal of wheat was imported from Eu rope, especially from Odessa, in the Black Sea, just ns we are importing a gr-at deal in 1867. In 1837 the price suddenly fell, and the importers suffer ed heavy leases. There is a dnnger of the like loss now. As in the West, so in Canada, although the seasons are very backward, goed harvests are expected. WitD Cattle in Florida.—The j Jacksonville Union, of the 25th ult., | says : “The immense herds of cattle that now roam at will through the wilds of thia State and Georgia, are proving a serious inconvenience to tho rail road trains. Scarcely a train runs at Bight without more or less destruction of stock, and not unfrequcntly half a dreen at a time are hurled from the track and dcstroyej.” Supposed Murder.—We learn from tbe Montgomery Advertiser that Major Spratt left that city on Thursday after noon on a err to pay off the hands along the Montgomery aud Eufaula Railroad. After proceeding about seven miles he dismissed the car, payed off the hands at that point and proceeded on foot for Oak Grove, three miles distant. Since hie departure nothing definite has been heard from him. Tbe military institu ted diligent search for him, aud the cav alry yesterday evening discovered blood im tbe grass and weeds a short distance from where Maj Spratt had dismissed the car. It is confidently believed by some that he was murdered and robbed. Maj. S. was well known and liked ia Montgomery, and Lip friends arc very upcaay about bis fate. Kciiictly fur Slant Time*. The Now Torn Journal of (’utn tncrce says: “A little more confuletco in the future gaheral’y diffused through tho i nmtiiui ity, would lift a groat por tion ol the- weary loud now pressing upon all classes.” Men undoubted ly often greatly increase their troubles by their fours, All men arc liable to death, but “com urds die many times before their deaths.” 3 hero is more so-row from troubles tl.f.t never come, than from all tho real tutiding iLut we are luted to endure. It is n grout evil to a cmmmir.ity or to an individual, to yield to a paralys is of the cnitgicrt, and toko counsel of forebodings and despair. The wise man, whoso maxims are rich with worldly as well as sacred wisdom, de flares : “He that observeth tho wi> ds shall not sow ; and he that regardeth the clouds shall not reap.” It will not do to be deterred too much by the prospects ; to defer too imioh to our leais ; to withhold our i fforta because there is more or less risk of the re ward. There is a nec ss ty for piu dence, but tho j rudoucu which de mand. a a sure guarantee against mis haps, before it will act, is not prudence but folly. It is die creed of the s’ug gard. “The slothful man suith, then* is n 'ion " ithout ” “Whore can l invest a little money so that it shall b & perfectly safe?" in quired n person of a banker. “No where on this earth,” was tho answer As truly may it also be said that labor or enterprise cannot have any perfect guarantee and its reward. Yet we know that it is rewarded in the long run ; and that the on’y way to gain the reward is to try for it. “Nothing venture, nothing have,” is the old proverb. Besides it is better to fail trying, than to fail fearing. Let every one bo bold of heart, hopeful of s irit, and diligent and attentive, and there will be has heard about “hard times” : nd gloomy prospects,” and croakiDg will be left to the frogs. Sontlici n Organization A Haitical Parly. The evidence is multiplying on every hand, says the National Intelligencer, that the object of the Badicals in en nctmg the military bills was not to pre serve order, but to use the machinery to organize a radical party. General Ord is bitterly denounced because he assures the freedmen that it is of more consequence that the soil should be tilled and crops raised than that they should waste time on politics. Even General Sheridan, who has done so much to further the aims of Radical ism, is strenuously denounced by the New Orleans ultras because he will not do more. Gen. Pope has played into the hands of the Mobi’e Radicals, to which he was advised by General Swayne, in removing Mayor Withers, and in working out a state of things theie utterly disgraceful to tho Amer ican name. In Virginia, Gen. Brown, of the Freedman’s Bureau, is repiorted as having issued on order to tbe agents of tho Bureau, ‘to Eee that the freedmar, is instructed in his right [to rote,] and that he is registered und vo'es.’’ It becomes therefore, a duty imposed by Gen. Brown upon his su bordinates, not only to instruct the ne gro. but to exerci.-ie an absolute snpur* vision over, him, and see that he voteg. If the statcrnvnt is correct, Gen. How. sit’d should remove Geo. Brown rt once. But he will not do it, for tha: would be to impair the machinery by which it is hoped tho Radicals may cany the State of Virginia. Wo have before said, and we repeal it, that the President is remiss in his duty in not keeping the military repiresentatives of tbe Government within the strict limits of their authority. Governor Orr on tlie Slump. On the 7th, Governor Orr addressed the citizens of Anderson District, South Carolina. After reviewing the various plans presented since tbe war for recon struction, he earnestly insisted upon the acceptance of the one now proposed, as the only means of preventing the ad -1 ministration of affairs going in the hands j exclusively of the ignorant, and as the only hope of making this country even tolerable. He showed from the census 1 of 1860, the great preponderance of tho colored over the white voters in the State, and the utter inability of tbe ; whites to defeat a convention or protect themselves whenever an issue is made with the colored people. There are 60,000 colored voters in the State, i wtiile there are only 40,000 whites. It is true, perhaps, that there are not now as many colored men as in 1860,butitis ; clear the proportionate decrease has been greater with tba whiteß than the blacks since the commencement of the late I war. Governor Orr insisted upon the culti vation of the most cordial relations be ! twoen the races, and the formation of no alliance with th«Mwo great political par : ties of the nation. Several neighborhoods about New York city are already afflicted with . mosquitoes. This little p«st has also i visited Philadelphia. Another Gilat From Uulit klen 91 ill-. General Sickles has pui'isjed anoth er orderof which the follbwing is the subftincc : Ist. H quires the Sheriffs, Chief of Police, City Marshals, Cbiif of Detec tives ami Towu Marshals to report to Cjl. 11 inks, Protest M antral Geueral of this District, the narms, dmics, sala ry, Ac., of each officer and the authori ty by whom ho was sppiinted. 2d Reports to be made to the com mission by all rfficers of arrests etc. 31. Reports to be made of escape ol prisoners aud the attending circum stances, also of recapture of tscaped prisoners. 4th. Sheriffs arc required to to report the condition ts jails. s:b. Civil officers in charge of a jail, prisoD, or workhouse arc to make month- j ly reports to the Provost Marshal Gen eral. G h All Sheiiff*, Ciraslables, etc.,are , required to obey and execute the lawful orders of the Prevost Marshal General, and auy resistance to, or disobfdience of, the lawful orders of authority of the Provost Marshal Goocial will rulject the offender to trial by a military com, mission. 7th. Requires duplicate reports to be sent to Post Cemmandtrs Bth. This order will cot relieve civil officers from the discharge of duties now required of them. 9tb. Regulates Sheriffs snd Consta ble’s fees for feivces perfumed undir the orders of the Provist Mar shal General. 10 b. Requires all persons who may koow of any threatened breach of the peace to make complaint at once to the Cbiif of Police. llth. Imprisonments for defaults iD payment es costs, fees or charges of the Court, attorneys or public officers, shall not exceed tbiity days. Humor —An exchange says it is gen erally understood at Washington that the President has at last decided to in terfere in this ease, and will revoke the order of Gen. Swayne, deposing tho municipal government of Mobi.e, and will instruct Swayne to reinstate the Mayor and all other officers who have been interfered with by military edict The President also maintains that his construction of the law Is judicially sus tained, for the Supreme Court of the United States, in Ihe Mississipoi injunc tion case, held that the duties of the generals commanding the several milita ry distilots “must necessarily bo per formed under tho supervision of the President, as Commander-in Ohiif, for the duties thus imposed on the Presi dent is in no just sense ministerial—it is purely executive and political.*’ Latest From Mexico. We have dales from Mexioo to the 2J inst. Miramon was still dangerously ill from his wound. Mendez was exe-. cuted by order of Escobedo on the ,16th Campos was shot a few hours after the amputation of hi* leg. When Maximilian gave up his sword to Escobedo, he said : “I surrender to you my sword, owing to an infamOßs mous treason, without which to-mor row’s sun would have scon your’s ia ray. hand ” Escobedo had ordered a eourt-mar ehall to assscmble on the 29th for the trial of tho Emperor Maximilian, and sent, thrOkgh Di™, * telegram to the Prussian Minister in Ihe City of Mexico together with Mariano Reva Publico and a liccutiate, Martizzi Do Lx Tour, to defend him. The following is Maximilian’s proo- ! lamation: “ Countrymen : After the valor and patriotism of the Republican forces have destroyed my sceptre in this place, whoso tcnacous defence was indispansa ble to save the honor of iny cause and j of my race, after the bloody siege in ; which tbe Imperial and Republican sol- ; diers have been compelled in abnega tion and boldness, 1 will explain myself countrymen. I came to Mexico, not i only animated with the best of faith for insuring the felicity of all and each of uo, but, Napoleon 111, he, to the ridi cule of France, aband ned me eowardly and infamously by the demand cf tbe Uni'ed Stales, after having uschsdy spent forces and treasure, and shed the blood of her sons and your own. When the uews of my tall and death reaches Europe, all the monarchs of Charl mangue’s country will demand cf the Napoleon dynasty an account of ray blood and of the German, Belgian ind French blood shed in Mexico. There will be the end. Soon before the whole world Napoleon 111 will be covered with shame from head to foot. To-day he has already seen his Majesty, tho em peror of Austria, my august brother, ' praying tor my life to the United States ' and myseK a prisoner of w ir in the hands !of the Republican Government, and with my crown and my head torn in pieces. Countrymen here arc iny last ! words: I desire that my blood regener ' ate Mexico, and serve as a warning to {all ambitious ard incautious men, and | that you act with prudence and trutb -1 fulness, and ecoble, with your virtues, tbe political cause of the flag you BU6 itain. May Providence save you and make you worthy o? mvsclf. 1 [Signed] Maximilian.” i Our friend Middleton, of the Colum l buß (Miss.) Sentinel, says ho. is “pro prietor aud editor”—chief fugleman— i blower-general—fastotum at large, fee., 1 of that paper. The S« i mit (Iliss ) Commercial m< i ti- i.s a ■ ;fid< ice ifSl.#g*>od fc< \- 1 ing beta cen the whits and j blacks in t f»«t county, the exGtaoce oj * firn company where whites and black-* pull on the simo ropes— Exchange. This paraprajb has been (Mating around as if i f e mtained something now. Prom “time immemorial," the white* and blacks hare' pulled on the same ropes and worked iho brakes to gether uiVi iv fife in this city. At al most cycry no ohauietl and imlusliial pursuit, the whi ties ar.d blacks of tho South have labored side by side. tis only in the Noith where the wl rto man refuses to labor in company with the hi,'ok. 'There the prodjuliet is s) great against him that the woibnirti will strike rather than work with the negro. In tho South this prejudice does not ex ist; aud if there he bad feeling between fhc races here, it is attributable solely to the evil teachings and influence of Ridical emissaries. TLis ergatized lios tili'y at the N nh against negro labor is the best evidence that the people ol the Sou'h aro truly tho friend of the! negro race. Tho Rad’cals havecn-! franchised the negro not for his own good, but for tho purpose of using him as an instrument to accomplish their wicked ends. Having sub'erved their I purposes, tho Rads will let the poor negro sl.de.— Circa, J- S cn. _ Compulsory Voting. Wo learn from Richmond by telegraph that Gen. Brown of the Freed men’s Bureau has issued a circular directing his effieers ‘to see that every fredmen is instructed in his right, and is registered, and votes.'' This is a little strong. The negro is : not to be left to exorciso the right of \ voting or not, as he may prefer but, ac ! cerding to this telegram, will be requir to vote nolens vo/ciis. Th - penalty for ! not voting is not set forth You may : call this freedom, if you please, but it 1 resembles a good deal that sort of prop -1 agandism which declares, “take trial, ihj j ur y ft I’ll blow your brains out ” Singular Fact—The Nortbewest j is so bare cf breadstuff's that the suiplus stock in New York is now sent for the { supply of her chief towns. It is yet t 0 I be proved whether the Northwestern ■ States can produce a large surplus of ' breadstuff's. More ‘industry” will be ne_ j cefSity for the purpose, and much lots of Speculation and of politics. West ol Missouri it is quite certain that neither the climate nor soil favor cereal pro ducts. Tho South must hcarafter cease to depend upon the West for flour and corn. At the negro celebration in Memphis last Friday there was a call for “Ea ton,” and the blacks somehow fxncied that Eaton was a negro, as well as the other-speaker*, ar.d called cut vocifer ously, for “Eaton,” “Old Eiton, *’ “Old, Bill Eaton.” When Eaton came for ward, one intensely black fellow, who had evidently expected to sec a differ ent looking man, Baid Eaton was only one of “dem white niggers, after all.” Five papers of tobacco, put up by an enterprising firm in New York with a hundred dollar greenback in each, are s*id to have been already purchased by lucky individuals who find themselves $99 90 richer for their purchase.— Meantime the firm continue to advertise I their weed by ' announcing that they j put a greenback into one of the packag , p“( Up each day. Hon. JosJph Henry Lumpkin, the distinguished jurist and veceraM“ Chris tian gentleman, died at his resilience in Athens, on last Tuesday morning about 10 o’clock. The Supremo Court now in session in this city, hms sustained a great loss in the death of Chief Justice Lumpkin.— F. Union llth Maximilian.—Notwithstanding all the rumors about the execution of Max imilian, there are a good many well-in formed persons who doubt whether he has ever been captured. TheJlexicans like radical politicians, making it a mat ter of convenience never to tell the truth if a lie can be made to serve tboir pur posc- According to the Louisville Journal, 3,000 bouses were built in that city last year, and preparati ms are making for tbo construction of 2,500 more. The new Galt House is to be the largest ho tel in the Western counlry. Counterfeit (MO’s on the Third Na tional Bank of Philadelphia have just been discovered, which are so cleverly executed that they passed through the Mechanics’ and Farmers’ Bank of Roch ester without detection. In Ilavanna there is a band of vil lains who extort money from wealthy people by threatening to kidnap their i children, in case of non-complianee they intimate that they will send the child’i head to them.

We*, tbo Grand Jury of the Superior Court, May term, 1867, bog leave to make the following Presentments and recommendations ; Wo find the Jail very insecure; and ! recommend that it be repaired as soon ns convenient. We recommend that blinds be put to the windows of tbo Court House, the sash be rt filled with ! glass, and ti e steps repaired. We [ further recomend that the Inferior i Court have a neat, and eub jptantial enclosure round the Court ! House, of two hundred and fifty leet square, or more, at the discretion ot ! tho Court; and when done, that the trees upon the square outside the en closure be ooxed up to prevent, their destrution and that a mificient number of horse racks be put up, for the use • f the public. We find that two of the lower rooms of the Court House are occupied by private citi zens. If tiiese rooms are not needeo for the use of official business of the County Officers, we recommend that they* be rented out, and the proceeds be put into the County Treasury We find some of the Roads are in a tolerable good condition, while others in a bad condition. Wo recommend that our road Superintendent have the roads worked and put ia good order ns soon iis the planting interest will adul tof it. The Bridges generally in a bad condition; some of them al most impassable. Wo recommend that they be put in reprir at tho ourlie.-t ] racticab'o day. We a’eo recomend that the Infwnor Court pay Mr. Wm. E. Bozeman Fifty Dollars for extra work on publie bridge known as the Clay bride on Kinchefoonee Creek. Having carefully examined the Books of the Clerks Office of the Supe rior, Inferior and County Courts; niso Ordinary’s Treasurer’s and Tax Col lector sand Receiver's Books, w e find them to be kept in a neat, correct and budr.e s like manner. In examining tho Treasurer’s Books we find a bal ance of Two Thousand and twelve dob lets and 98 cents in the Treasure’s bauds- We also find in his hands Eight hundred and Ninety e’ght Dol lars redeemed Goun'y Treasury notes including his commission, Twenty-two Dollars Forty five cents. In consid eration of the Treasurer’s loss of Conn tv money , by theft, we recomend that the In f erior Court give tho Treasuer all the mdu’genee that may be com— pa table with the public interests of the county, in replacing tne lost mon ey. On tbs examination of the Tax liooxs, we find the entri s eo-rectlv made, and all moneys collected prop erly accounted for. We also find Tax Fi fa’s in Sheriffs hands for collection, amounting to about Two hundred! Dollars. We find on the Criminal 1 Law Docket of the County Court,; Twenty-two insolvtnt cases, on which j the Judge is entitled to four Dollars,! the Solicitor Five Dobnrs and fifty cents, and the Sheriff One Dollar and twenty five cents for each case, mak- ! *- in all, Three hundred and thirty- j six Doiiai s. rocorumen j that tho ofTVers be paid the al amounts J which we find due them. We recomend that the Pettit Ju-* rors lie paid one Dollar per diein for | their services during the term. The subject of Taxation for J Poor School purpose has had our; our most earnest consideration. We would leave this matter with tbo able and efficient Inferi r Court of this county, believing that they will levy all proper taxes when it can be done without bringing starvation to the doors of ihe already sorely oppressed j citiz ns; but w» wculd recommend! 1 that, as soon a* it may be practicable,! a tax bo levied sufficient to pay all ar-j rearages cf tuition for poor eel o 1 I purposes. We would respectfully call tho at‘en | tisn of the proper officer to the subject of weights and nua-mres. These im plements of merchandise ought to be uniform and have upon them the proper seal, so that both buyer and seller shall be protected in their rights. The GraEd Jurors in the conclusion of the services of this Honorable Court offer to his honor, Judge John T. Clark, feelings impressad with the highest and profoundest respect tor the Judge in acquitiog himself personally and effi cially of the onorous duties thus im posed upon him. Tha Grand Jurors congratulate the country and themselves in the fact that it does not often occur in these days of judicial rod moral cor ruption and political rum, that the couo try and the laws thereof are so eminent ly safe and well secured as we have reason to believe they are io our frieiid and com patriot, Judge Clark to taking leave of his honor, wo fur ther submir, that the Grand Jurv is deeply impressed with the maimer in which his honor preserves peace and good order in his court. The Jury have reason to believe that great good can but result from seivices thus rendered. The Jury cannot but be awrkened tc the fact, that not otily hive the citizen! in the body been made to observe good order ami the most perfect quiet, but the, hithcito, almost uugovereublo law yer has been held steady under bis dis cipliuo r<fleeting great honor aid credit upon the Court. We, herein, i flbr to the citizens our sympathies for tbe down troddcQ con dition in which tho whole country seems to bo laid. To the Bar, wo tender our respect to .hcmsclvos and the profes sion, and to the newly docked Solici tor Gent ral, 8. Wise Paiker, whose mantle seems, »o us, to be gracefully vorn, we cun, with pleasure,state that the manor in which he has ai-charg od his laborious duties, amounts al most to a succes.
