We hope that the present Legislature of Georgia will take some steps to revive the military laws of the State. For a number of years past no effort (or very little) has been made to keep up anything like a military organization, except in a L. v towns and cities, and even where the pride of a town or city have prompted a few to form a volunteer company, in sev eral instances they have been compelled to disband in consequence of their num ber being too small to secure the neces sary arms and munitions fo£> well organ ized military company. /Here, in our own beloved Cass—the Empire county of Cherokee Georgia, and inferior to no one in the Empire State of the South—where there are a number of experienced and well disciplined men in military tactics— a cavalry company has been compelled to disband for want of encouragement, and that too after the most of them had gone to the expense of furnishing them selves with the necessary uniform. It is disgraceful to the citizens of a county as highly favored as ours, .$ county claim ing a population of the rise of 15,006 souls, with four respectable’ 1 Tillages, and can’t produce a solitary military organization, nor even pride enough to encourage one after it is formed. How long is this to be the case ? Inasmuch as an effort to get up a cavalry company has failed, will not the young men of Cass county make one to get up a foot company? Who will take the lead in the matter ? Let us hear from you. We think the Legislature ought to requirethe citizens of each and every counly in the State, except where there iff one or more regular volunteer companies, who are. subject to service, to be etHed.out and, com pel led to muster, as in days gone bj. j We heartily agree with aj^ffrespondent inf the Dalton Time*, who | says that “the militia system of our State is a dead letter. In the aboenct of militia organization, it is important dial: volun teer companies be formed in each county in the State. We are not prepared to my at what moment the aid of well disciplin ed volunteer companies may he required. The discipline and general training ptae- deudtn volunteer companies, is in every reflect, a grant advantage to the young men «ifomr country, lrtwichm them hew to the fear of thnt class of people. We hope our Legislature will give special at tention to this subject The Cassrille Grave Yard. Below we give the proceedings of a meeting held in this place on Saturday last, for the purpose of considering the propriety and necessity of taking steps for cleaning up and repairing the village grave-yard. This has already too long been neglected, and we are truly glad that the citizens have been aroused to a sense 1 of their duty, and hope that they will not suffer the matter to be longer neglected.— It has grown up in bushes and briers, and we fear that many graves have become entirely extinct—not one vestige of the old foot or bead-stones now mark the sa cred spot, but, like the tenant, have de cayed and returned to the mother dust.— The parents and relatives of many whose ashes now sleep in the silent grave on yonder hill, have moved to distant coun tries, and unless the compassion of friends present will revive the monuments that can’t be made anything else: Old John Brown—to be hung 2d Dec.

A Georgia Printing Fresa A correspondent of the Augusta (Ga) Dispatch,, writing from the Fair at Atlanta, Georgia, says: But the thing which of all others is bon orable to the inventor and to Georgia, is the Printing Press invented by Mr. Reynold*, of this city. Simple and compact, it does its work with grext rapidity and precision. It is probablv the best Printing Press ever invented or bniU at the Sooth, and needs bat equal puf fing to be the equal if not the superior to Hoe’s best. The Charleston Courier says: Mr. Reynolds visited this city in order to have made some parts of this pruas. We are pleased to learn that his invention has succeeded, and trust it will be exhibited at our Institute Fair. there took slaves without the snapping of a gun on either side. Moved them through the country and finally left them in Can ada. I designed to have done the same thing again on a larger scale. That was all I intended. I never did intend murder or treason or the destruction of property, or to incite slaves to rebellion, or to make insurrection. “ I have another objection, and that is, it is unjust that I should suffer such a penalty. Had I interfered in the manner which I admit, had been fairly proved, (for I admire the truthfulness and candor of the greater portion of the witnesses who testified in the case)—had I so interferred in behalf of the rich and powerful—the in telligent—the so-called great, or in behalf of any of their- friends, either father or mother, brother or sister, wife or children or any of that class, and suffered and sac rificed what 1 have in this interference, it would have been all right and every man in this court would have deemed it an act worthy of reward rather than punish ment. “This court acknowledged too, as I suppose, the validity of the law of God. I see a book kissed here which I suppose to be the Bible, hr at least the New Testa ment. That teaches me that all things ‘ whatsoever J would men should do to me I should do even so to them.’ It teach es me, further, to ‘remember them that are in bonds as bonded with them.’ I en deavored to act up to these instructions. I say I am yet too young to understand that God is any respector of persons. I believe that to have interferred as I have done, in behalf of his despised poor, was not wrong but right Now, if it is deem ed necessary that I should forfeit my life for the furtherance of the ends of justice, and mingle my blood further with the blood of the millions in this slave country whose rights are disregarded by wicked, cruel and unjust enactments, I submit.— So let it be done! “ Let me say one word further, I feel entirely satisfied with the treatment I have received on my trial. Considering all the circumstances, it has been more generous than I expected, but I feel no conscious ness of guilt I have stated from the first what was niy intentions, and what was not. I never had any design against the commit treason, or excite the slaves to re bel or make any general insurreetion. I never encouraged any man to do so. but always discouraged any idea of that kind. Let me say also, in regard to the state ments made bv some of those connected with me, I fear it has been stated by some of them that I have induced them to join me. But the contrary is true, I do not say this to injure them, but as regretting ’their weakness. There is not one of them but joined me of his own accord, and a number of them I never saw and never had a word of conversation with till the day they came to me, and that was for the purpose I have stated. Now I have done!” He was then sentenced to be hung on Friday, Dec. 2. Faria from the Comptroller’s Report. We gather from the report of the Comp troller General of the State, the following facts, which may be interesting to our readers. The available balance in the State Trea sury at the end of the fiscal year 1858 was one hundred and thirty thousand three hundred and fifty-four dollars and sixty- five cents. The receipts of the Treasury, during the fiscal year 1859, were one million thirty-two thousand eight hundred and seventy-nine dollars and twenty-seven cts, and the disbursements during the same year, were eight hundred and seventy- The State House has C06t two hundred thousand dollars; the Executive Mansion eighty thousand dollars; and the Peniten- itentiary five hundred and eleven thou sand one hundred and fifty-two dollars. The State owns railroad and bank stock which (estimating the State road at six millions) is worth seven million three hundred and ten thousand nine hundred dollars—an amount which is more than double that of the entire public debt There are inanv other interesting facts contained in Mr. Thweatt’s report, some of them especially interesting in view of of the new apportionment of the members of the Legislature, which must be made at the mooted question of reduction, to -which we shall have occasion to refer here after. —Canstitvtionalist. streets of that city which are inhabited by the more intelligent negroes, for the pur pose of obtaining such information as may throw light upon the purposes of the Ab olition conspirators.

Fanatic to the highest degree—a pupil, j„ politics, of the Giddings school—he has been taught to believe that the killing of a slaveholder was an act which God wo’d approve. When in this city last spring, in his lectures, he told of his stealing ne groes and running them lo Canada—of his stealing horses, which he then had with him for sale—of his shooting down slaveholders, and of other acts equally at rocious.

A letter in the N. Y. Tribune, writing from Chambcraburg, Pa* says that they were in that place the very night that Cook was taken from there to Vir ginia. He adds that “they are now safe," but we think it very likely that the $2,- 000 wiU bring them. BTtf . E Senator James C.

The following preamble and resolutions were introduced in the House of Represen tatives of the Legislature of Goorgia on Thursday, 3d inst., by Mr. Gibsori, of Richmond, and passed unanimously: Whereas, The late attempt at Harper’s Ferry, in the State of Virginia to excite a portion of the slaves of the South to insurrection, has produced the highest de gree of indignation in the minds of the Southern people against the perpetrators of that outrage their aiders and abettors and affords just ground to apprehend a re newal of their efforts in otherplaces; And whereas the action of Gov. Wise and Pre sident Buchanan meets with our unquali fied approbation, wc deem it incumbent upon the members of the Legislature of the State of Georgia to give the most authori tative expression of their sentiments.-— Therefore Resolved, that we regard the effort to ex cite the slaves of the South to a servile in surrection with the mast, intense indigna tion, and trust that the parties to the insane and treasonable plot, may meet with the most prompt and signal punishment, be lieving as we do that wh : le it will be meet ing out a just retribution for their crime it will exert a wholesome influence in deter ring others from countenancing similar movements Resolved, that the prompt energetic action of Gov. Wise, of President Buchan an, in suppressing the outbreak at Harper’s Ferry and in their efforts to capture the insurgents, evince a degree of manliness and patriotism,honorable^ like to them and worthy of our warm admiration. Resolved, That we pledge the State of Georgia to uphold and support the State of Virginia and tile President of the United States in the position they have assumed, in connection with this unfortunate affair, and we earnestly counsel the utmost vigi lance in guarding against the recurrence of a similar conspiracy, in our own bordors, or elsewhere at the South. Resolved, That a copj- of ihe foregoing j preamble and resolutions be transmitted by the Governor of the State of Georgia to the Governor and Legislature of Virginia, and to the President of the United States. The same was then orderd to be trans mitted to the Senate without delay. m The Southampton Tragedy—He»ro Outbreak in 1831.
