A Conservative Ke-cnforcc
■nent.
Among the new members sworn in
on the ‘27th ult., says the National In
telligencer, were Mr. Tift and General
P. M. B. Young, of Georgia. These
gentlemen must be carefully discrimi
nated from the class of capacious car
pet-baggers who have foisted them
selves surreptiously into the public
councils. They are native Georgians,
and men of character and intelligence.
Both are in full sympathy with the
Conservative party of the country, and
will faithfully represent the true inter
ests of their people.
The admission of General Young
was favored by several leading Radi
cals, to whom wo are bound to accord
credit tor the candor which has led
them, in this instance, to separate
themselves from the more bigoted por
tion of that party We congratulate
General Young upon his sucoess, not
withstanding the prejudices which re
sisted his admission, and predict foi
him a useful career.
jtay*The Thunder storm, which com
menced a 1 out 3 o’clock yesterday
morning, says the Savannah FI era 1 and,
of the 30 ult, and las'.ed an hour or
two, was, with ut a doubt, the most
terrific that has evervisi’ed die cry.—
Two black clouds, one from the north
and the other from the south, met, and
a war of the elements ensued—the
winds blow, the rains descended, the
thunder rolled and crashed, and the
lightning .flashed and struck. After a
slioit time (to many (f our citizens an
apparently interminable period) things
quie'ed down, and the clouds, which
had merged into one, flouted ofl nortli
waid. [lf any one can see an omen
in'that, send the idea in ; we have been
given seven hundred and eleven al
ready, but our waste b sket is fully
prepared to recurve many more.] The
lightning s ruck several trees near the
Cathedral Cemetery, sp'it a telegraph
pole near the Atlantic & Gulf Railroad
into splinters, and killed a child on
Lover’s lane, an account of which is
published elsewhere, acd struck a
house on Broughton street, doing little
damage to it.
At half-pas', eleven o’clock last night
after a consideration of nine hours,
says the New York Herald, the Sen
ate ratified the treaty with China.—
This is cne of the remarkab’e events of
history—that the brst general treaty
by the oldest nation of the world
should be concluded with th« young
est. It proves that the Celestials are
a progressive people fully alive to their
own interests, and prefer the friendship
of a young, vigorous, go-ahead nation
to that of the solemn, pragmatic slow
coaches of the Old World. China has
in this treaty, shown her sense and in
dependence; she has secured a most
powerful ally, and can now make her
own terms with other outside barbari
ans.
A Woman iu Jljiii's C’lotliintf
Running Away willi a licgro.
yesterday morning, on the arrival
of the Georgia train, Lieut. Murphy
was at the depot, and bis suspicions
were aroused by what appeared to be
a white man and negro together, very
sociable. He watched them awhile and
his keen eye soon satisfied him that it
was a woman disguised as a man, and
arrested both. Soon after the arrest
a telegram was received from the girl’s
father, stating that she and the negro
had left Union Point tho night befure,
and asking that they be stopped 1 .
Tho girl, whose degradation is so
deeo that we refrain from giving her
name, says that she had been intimate
with the negro for some months, and
that she was in a eondi'ion that would
have soon disclosed the fact to her pa
rents and run away to prevent the dis
covery. They were to go to Nash
ville, Teno., and marry, so the negro
says. This she denies, but says she
loves him better thau any man she
knows.
Tho negro is a blaruc, ug’y, kinky
headed man, about 00, and a latr sam
ple cf his race The girl is about 18,
with homely features and a depraved
look.
Since the above was in type, the
father of the girl arrived in the city,
aud will return with her to-day, to his

Ga., Proprietors of Kaytou’s popular reme

Times are Clianged, and we
are Changed.
tiy Miss JIAIiOIK BIIRCH, Student of Wciitou
Academy, Weston, Webster Cos., (Ja.
All objects, animate, and inanimate, are
subject to perpetual change. “The rocks
crumble, the trees lull, the leaves fade, the
grass withers.”
From the earliest ages of the world, even
from the day that witnessed fair Eve's trans
gression and consequent departure from her
Eden home, to the present day, change has
been indellibly stamped upon every object of
creation.
The first borne God made for his children
was very beautiful. There were verdant
groves, fragrant flowers, delicious fruits and
limpid streams of living water. All -vas pure,
because sin had not yet entered Paradise.—
But, alas! wbat a sad chaDge soon passed
over it and its inhabitants. The lair fame of
our mother was tarnished ; she fell, and great
was her fall. Thus man, the noblest work of
God's creation, was in a moment changed
from his original state of innocence, to the
immoral, impure being, he is at the present
day. w
Looking back through the vista rs many
centuries, we find that change has bcoa busy.
Empires in quick succession have risen and
fallen; the most stable governments have
changed; proud cities have toppled from the
highest pinnacle of earthly power and gran
deur, buried in their own ruins, mocked by
their own desolations. Lofty geniuses have
yielded the “laurel wreath” to time’s unbend
ing sway. The scepter has been SDatched
from the monarch’s brow, and his power
given to the winged winds.
Change is written on all we know. As we
turn over, leaf after leaf of the huge book of
time, what woDdrous changes are presented
to the mind ! We naturally ask ourselves:
where are the works of past ages? Where
is the grandeur of aucient Egypt, her crowned
Kings, her sages, her philosopher’s? Where
are the countless thousands that once crowd
ed her halls of learning ? Echo answers,
gone! gone! gone, like a meteor’s glare.
Nothing now remains of all this grandeur, but
a few vestiges el misguided ambition to at
tract the curious eye of the traveler as he
wanders over the same ground that once
echoed to the tread of lh6se, who for centu
ries have been but common dust.
Could we slop here, t’would be well. But
times effacing fingers have continued their
busy wotk through generations, to the pres
ent. Times are changed, and we are changed.
Passing briefly through the changes of many
ages that now live only in memory, and lifting
the veil that covers the incidents of the past
few yeurs, we look upon a page of our own
history—a page that will ever stand as a
record for fuluie generations, of the many
sad changes that have passed over our own
desolated country. A Kw years ago, wi;at
were we? now, what are we? Tl.en we were
a free and happy people. There was no gov
ernment which was thought to be better than
o"rs. Wise men were our rulers. Where
a-c they? Where is the liberty for which
our ancestors fought aud bled? We are
slaves— worse than stares —we are a down
trodden people, compelled to yield to the
tyranny of men whose hearts are so petrijied
ond whose souls are so cramped as to be void
of evety noble feeliugand generous impulse.
Mo thinks could the noble martyrs of ourjust
ard holy cause rise up and see the many sad
changes that have taken place, they would
almost weep tears of blood for the desolations
and ruins of our own beautilul, beloved
Southern land.
The It ig of our country’s honor, the 11 ig
that fair hands wrought, and biave men bore
alof' amid the din of battle, is furled. It has
trailed iu the dust; yet it wifi uolwlway be
thus.
Though time cannot efface from the mem
ory, ecenes enacted throughout the length
and breadth of this proud land, from the cou
tcmplatiou of which the heart wifi turn in
sickening dread a hundred years hence, a
change w ill again take place. The time will
cotne, when we shall be free; when none
shall dare to interfere with Southern rights.
God has made all things liable to change.
We sec this truth verified, as well in man, as
in the objects of nature by which we are
surrounded—for man is unstable as the flower
of the field, so he flourisheth.
The strongest friendships have changed.—
The teoderest love of the human heait has
changed. But greater than these is Ihe
change yet to take place. The body which
may long have mingled with its mother dust,
shall rise from the tomb to meet its tpirii in
the spirit-land. Freed from impurities it will
rise in the beauty and perfection of Chriat.
Through vast ages of eternity it shall live on,
live ever, chanting praises to the God that
made it.
The Heavens and the earth shall pass
away. “All creation shall grow old and die.”
But this shall not be, the archangel shall
stand one foot on land and one on sea and
sweir by Heaven’s eternal —“Tima shall be
no more.”
To the Fowf. Yard and the Col
i.Akd Patch —Joseph Brown cannot
go to the Senate. There is no money,
no power, no patronage for him. It is
very doubtful if Dunn pays him the
ten thousand dollars promised for the
hanging of men who are likely to see
Joseph performing on a rop j, if he
should get his deserts in this country.
But he can’t starve. There is a tine
business open to him. We understand
that numerous orders have been sem
him for specimens of those chickens of
his that do not crow, and for the seed
of his peculiar variety of ‘ collards ”
These orders we are told are invaria
bly accompanied by the cash—Ge >rgia
State Treasury notes issued by Joseph
during ths war. Let him get a piece
of land, a plow, end that bull yearling,
anil ho can raise collard seed for the
milion, and corn enough to feed every
non crowing chicken in the world. It
is rumored that Joseph intends to take
Aaron Alpeoriu in copartnership with
him in the new trade. Bend on your
orders.— Col. Sun.

’•There is no pleasure here on earth,
That knows uot hers an sud.”
DIED, at hisFsther’s residence, in Terrell
Couuty, Ga., July 271 b, 1808, Euoine lliu.,
son of Dr. A. and Mrs. A. A. Baris; aged 2
years, six months and 23 days.
Little less than an angel on earth, his transi
tion was but alight to an angel in Heaven.—
Possssssd of an intelligence (ar in advance of
his years; a sweetness of temper, and an
amiability of disposition truly surprising in
one so young; a heart oveiHawing with love
and affection for all with whom he was famil
iarly associated. He was, at once, the hope
•f his friends, the pride of his father ; and,
alns! the idol of his mother’s heart.
It were vain to offer sympathy to his be
reaved parents, for no sympathy is commen
surate with a sorrow so iucousolable. This
world affords no halm for a wound so deep.
As well might the mathematician endeavor
to assigu a value to “infinity,” as for the
hand even of affection to attempt to measure
the height, aud length, and breadth, and
depth of a mother’s love. May the In6uity
Hand that dealt the blow, in mercy apple
the healing balm. For twelve long months
that family has been overwhelmed with afflic
tions, deep, weighty aud severe; but the
heaviest stroke has at last fallen ; and, now,
while the hearts of the parents are bowed in
sorrow beneath the chastening rod, may they
not turn back to their darling boy, as he was
in life, and, building an alter to bis memory,
bow in adoration at its shrine ; but may they
look forward and upward to a glorious and
happy reunion, beyond the calking cares of
life. Having already added two happy voices
to the angelic choir that surrounds the throne,
what an inducement to live for God. Father
of mercies, grant that, when done suffering
thy will on earth, they may add two more,
and constitute an uubrokeu family in Heaven.
Good bye, Engine ! ’Tis hard for our selfish
hearts to yield thee up, even to Him who in
His own just right claimeth His own. Ileav
eulv Father, may this separation be only for
a time ; and, when I too shall shuffle off this
moital coil and cross the chilly waves of the
“Jordan of Death,” may he again meet me
at the threshold of his Father's mansion, as
he has so often done before, and again greet
me with his accustomed joyous welcome,
“Buddie’s Coming.”
