Stanton was in consultation with Gene- made“ ““ w “ Dep ‘““ ant ’ “ ing machine, on the old site of the latef Magnolia Mills. Mdssr#. McElreath & Slign, we understand, are the projectors. Benevolent Institutions.—The quib ble raised by our cotemporary of the Tele graph. about what was so evidently a typo- grajdiieal error in our notice of tiie provis ion that had been made for the support of the Benevolent Institutions of the State, i- so far-fetched as to be beneath notice.— The i*oint of our notice was that “General Pope has directed Treasurer Jones to dis burse from the State Treasury, daring the ensuing year, to the several benevolent in- -titutkms of the State, amounts equal to the appropriations made last year by the Legislature."’ We made the statement up on the authority of a Superintendant of the State Institution at Milledgeville. We presume the statement is true; hope it is. and we arc sorry the Telegraph refuses to commend the action of Gen. Pope. That journal seems disposed to grumble at every thing. Mr. Sneed is in such an ill humor that he can accept nothing without fault finding. lie is the “Mrs. Caudle*’ of the Georgia press. For the charitable act of allowing the Provisional Treasurer of the Provisional Government of Georgia to pay out precisely the same amount of money as the Legislature chosen by the people ac tually did pay out, Gen. Pope is grumbled at—the last thing anybody in the world -iiould be censured for. If the taxes paid by the jteoplc of Georgia cannot be ap propriated to support the classes of unfor tunates in our A-ylums legally, we sug gest it will be equally as illegal to use any jtortion of the funds that may he collected to pay State officials. In our opinion, if < b n. l’opc has issued such an order to Trar- .-uror Jones, as the one alluded to, he has performed an act that will return to him the thanks of every citizen of the State, except the chronic grumbler of the Tele graph. The Dalton Georgian,bf the 15th, says: “Some of our good, stannch Reconstruction friends are pressing the claims of Col. J. R. Parrott for the Presidency of the Con vention. We are inclined to think that the appointment would be a good one, as CoL P. is in possession of superior executive ability, and is straight out on the Congress ional Reconstruction plan. Forney’s Washington Chronicle says that miners considers the gold regions of Georgia superior to those of California. A fire—which was caused by the igni tion of a match, as seed cotton was passing through a gin in the extensive steam mills of Thomas & Livingston, situated near the railroad depot in Madson—resulted in the complete destruction of the mills. The property was partially insured. A large amount of cotton belongin'?to farmers in the vicinity was burnt. The boiler ex ploded during the progress of the fire, with a terrible concussion, but injuring no per son. The total loss by the fire at Fort Valley is estimated at $48,000. on which there was an insurance of §13,700. Rumors!—A rumor is in circulation that it has l»een decided to remove many offi cials in the State, from Governor down, and it is also stated that certain gentlemen have certainly been selected to fill certain positions. All this, report has it is to oc cur on or before the meeting of the State Convention. It is all humbug! From the moderation which has characterized the actions of the Military authorities in this District, thus far, we judge there will be no “proscrip tion for opinion's sake.*’ It is true that an army of provisional civil officials, work ing, in accord with the delegates elect to the State Convention, would greatly con tribute to advance the cause of Recon struction. This many have expected. Rut thus far the commanding General has re fused to displace officers, except for cause -how n. of malfeasance or outrageous con duct in office. We cannot see why he has determined to change the rule, therefore do not believe it has been so determined. The whole story is a device to create pre judice. we believe. Heretofore the decapi tation of a head lias been made known to the party first; so, we opine, it will he hcrcaiicr. Thr Coxvextion ix Georgia.—The Con vention for the State of Georgia, will, doubtless, be soon convened. From an ex amination of the list of delegates, which we publish in this paper, it will be seen that there are thirty-three white delegates elected to the convention. We have some reason to hope, from the names of gentle men whom we recognlz.e in the list, and who wield a great influence in legislative bodies, that the deliberation of the Con vention will he tempered by moderation and reason. If the Constitution, to be adopted for Georgia, not too egregi- j ously obnoxious to our people, we doubt • not its ratification by the people. But an enlightened judgment would dictate that an expression or opinion should be with- ! held until the work is done. If at all ac ceptable let the people ratify it, but if too oppressive and burdensome, then 1 t the people—the voters—of Georgia, set too their solemn protest, but not go before un to condemnation. What we want most is the restoration of Georgia to her wonted place in the galaxy of States, upon an hon orable and equitable basis. Not a Union cemented by bayonets, but of hearts and hands. The South can promise herself nothing until this restoration and union is effected. She is now suffering in all her interests, both public and private, on ac count of her disintegration. Once again restored in the Union upon, at least, re spectable terms, peace and prosperity w ill again flow to her borders, which will oil the wheels of progression and stimulate the energies of the people. When the Con vention convenes, we hope that reason will rule the hour—not passion, prejudice, nor spirit of revenge. Let us be patient and hopeful, determined to do what is right, nothing more, nothing less. Let us avoid extreme men and measures, and act in re ference to the future welfare of our coun try. people, and government. Let crimi nation and recrimination cease, and if the terms dictated be such as we can accept, let us accept them, if too intolerably ob noxious, reject them and submit to the consequences. We commend the foregoing, from the Cartersville Express, to such of the oppo sition as are capable of reflecting. The Express has opposed Reconstruction under the constitutional plan, yet we can com mend the above sentiment to many of its tire-eating associates. miscellaneous. - ■«•••* -- - — Thk To.mi-s ok Union Soldiers.—It w ill U- remembered that Congress, by an aet ,1.1—ed on the 22d of February, 1867, appropriated seven hundred and fifty thou-aud dollars for enclosing the various National Cemeteries w ith fencing, and for placing over each grave a commemorative tablet. A commission was also designated for carrying the act into effect, at the head of which w as placed General Grant. The Washington Intelligencer understands that this l*o;tnl has had the matter under recent consideration, and have nearly completed the necessary arrangements. It lias been assertained that three hundred and thirty thousand tablets will lie required—a fear ful account of the destruction of human life in the late rebellion. t^UIn referring to the fact that the Freedmens" Bureau—which, if the recom mendations of Gen. Howard, its official he uL s followed, will come to an end next Jul\—the New York Times, of the 12th, Bay*: -In spite of the complaints made by 8 •utliern men of its action, which in many cj-<- « ere pndmblyjort.it has protected the enfrat; hised slaves against imposition,and sometimes violence—has aided them in ob taining contracts for their labor and inen- lon-ing them—in opening schools for their children and ltcginning the work of pre- {tarniioii lor tin* responsible dutiq^ of life, an 1 especially in distributing Government aid among the destitute and starving por tions of the Southern ]>eople, black and white.

UT The onlycopy of the firet newspaper printed in America, known to be in exig ence, is in the British archive* in London. The practice which has prevailed with certain parties of using for private pur poses. envelopes stamped with signatures of Government officials, is to be terminat ed by application ot legal penalties against the offenders. The Postmaster General has transmitted to the President, for approval, two postal treaties recently concluded between the United States and Switzerland and the A orth German Union, including Prussia. The Roman Catholics of London are about to ercct-^the finest cathedral in Eu rope. save, perhaps. St. Peter's at Rome.— One feature is to be that priests of every nation and language are to be constantly stationed at this cathedral, for the purpose of hearing confessions and of preaching to foreigners in their native tongues. Accounts from different sections of Mis souri and Kansas mention very serious losses to farmers from prairie fires. In some instances whole farms have been de solated—fences. barns, sheds, grain and hay-stacks, orchards, and occasionally houses, being consumed. Many thousands of dollars' worth of property has been de stroyed. Failing to check whisky frauds by seiz ure and confiscation of a lot of illicit}* dis tilled liquor occasionally, the autboYities at Washington have determined hereafter to institute criminal prosecutions against violators of the law, besides forfeiting the property. The Fort Wayne, Indiana, Gazette has a table of the number of children attending school in the various counties in Indiana, which shows that Allen county is the se cond in population in the State, Marion county, in which is Indianapolis, being the first. The Cleveland Plain Dealer urges the se lection of Cleveland as the place to hold the next Democratic National Convention. It says that prominent gentlemen there agree to erect a temple to tie used by the Convention in its session.

The advices purporting to come from the City of Mexico, announcing the arrival of Hon. N. P. Banks in that city, have no foundation in fact. General Banks is at home in Waltham, Mass. Church, the artist is going to Syria, pen cil in hand. Santa Anna thinks he will spend the rest of his days in Cuba. It is again announced in the English journals, that the Queen has resolved to emerge from her seclusion. The wife of Senator Nye, of Nevada, died of apoplexy last Friday, at Oswego, after an illness of three days. Spurgeon’s physicians fear the gout will extend to their patient’s stomach. He has it terribly in his feet and legs. Miss Alida Torn, the young German pianist, is to make her first appearance in this country at Steinway Hall, on the 14th. The Tomahawk has discoverfed tbit Charles Reade stole the plot of his “ White Lies” from the French of Auguste Maquet. A grandson of Mallory, Secretary of the rebel navy, was drowned in an ornamental fountain at Bridgeport, Conn., the other day. Mrs. Yilate Murray Kimball, for forty- five years wife of the* Mormon ••President” Kimball, has just been buried at Salt Lake City. George Sand has written and published over eighty volumes of poems, essays, dra mas. and novels, and seems to he good for enough more to make the even hundred. The town of Coburg, New York, was made famous two months ago. by the birth of an infant which weighed only one pound. The child is now in the third month of her existence, and has gained a pound and a half, kicking the beam at two and a half pounds. An ordinary-sized gen tleman's finger ring will easily pass over her arm to the elbow, and her shoes are just two inches long. tir A Boston paper says: The love of neatness may be carried to excess, espe cially when it makes one forget courtesy for cleanliness. This was especially the case with Colonel 8 . when dining with his friend Holmes. No sooner was he seated at the table than, not liking the ap pearance of his glass, lie began polishing it with his napkin. His host noticed the action, and said uneasily to the waiter, *• Change the Colonel’s glass.” Another glass was brought, whereupon the Colonel picked up his napkin and recommenced his cleaning process. “How dare you bring dirty glasses! '* cried Holmes, angrily.— “Take it away and bring another.” A third glass was set betore the Colonel, who cooly set to work as before. Holmes, too furious to speak, motioned to the servant, who once more changed glasses. This time the Colonel lost patience, and, turning an grily round, exclaimed: “ Do you want me to wipe all the glasses in the house ? ” The harmonious conclusion of the dinner way be imagined. Tbe most stupendous tunnel enter prise has lately been accomplished at the silver mines in the German Hartz Moun tains. The mines were over 3,000 feet deep, and the scarcity of fuel prevented the use oi steam for pumping, which was done by water wheels, aided By tunnel drains. But the great depth reached in 1859 precluded further progress in that manner, and a tun nel was commenced for deep draining, which is but now finished. It is twenty- two miles long; two million cubic yards ut solid rock were excavated, ten thousand pounds of powder used, and the linear ex tent of blasting holes drilled is 180 miles. Naturally, on the successful completion of this collossal work, the thirty thousand miners whose livelihood is now assured for twenty years, celebrated the event with grand rejoicings. The mines can now be worked until 1887 without steam, and they have been operated since the year 920 in continuous, prolitable production. 23§F~ Washington telegram says: “ The gossips have enjoyed a malicious giatifica- tion, recently, in a reported disagreement, or something worse, between Senator anil Mrs. Sumner, which is no .v set at rest by the authoritative announcement that they will occupy their magnificent mansion on Lafayette Square during the coming ses sion of Congress, and keep open house as usual. It was stated in the Boston corres pondence of a rebel paper, printed in New York, that Mrs. Sumner went abroad alone, but the truth of the matter is she was ac companied by her brother, and her absence was prolonged until her husband finished his lecturing tour through the West. He has telegraphed that he will be in Boston to-morrow, and it is expected that his wife will meet him there. While in Paris she was continually in the company of her sister, and sailed for New York on the same vessel with her.” Government Claims. — Preparations have been made to demand an investiga tion by Congress of the manner in which monev. realized from the sale of cotton seized in the South, has been absorbed by the Treasury Department. Interested par ties claim that the interest on the amounts thus held by order of Secretary McCul loch. the title to which is properly subject to adjudication before the courts, since the close of the war, would amount to nine teen millions of dollars, and they threaten to bring Suits against him personally for tbe losses which they have sustained by what they are pleased to call his illegal as- tb^ P iie n for f ,StSrt to'con^LioliS O J GUrs. anTtmDrt^t.SAna tn nhtain tlipir r'nrhti nnd 898.194—a gain of 145.000 A fire at Whitewater, Wisconsin, on Sunday, destroyed the Mosher House and six otlier buildings.

United States C«^t« for tfee South* ern District of Georgia* Circuit Court—Hon. John Erslcine, Judge, Presiding.—November 13, 1867.—The time of the Court was occupied until 11 o’eloek'this morning in receiving verdicts in non-contcsted cases, granting orders, and transacting routine business of no public interest. David Wynn, executor of Thomas H. Wynn, deceased, vs. J. H. Webb—In Equity. In this case Webb held two promissory notes made by Thomas H. Wynn, of Chattooga couDty, Georgia, in his lifetime, for some one thousand dol lars each, which fell due after the death of Wynn. In 1863 the executor notified Webb, who resided in the State of Louisi ana, that he was prepared to pay said notes, and requested him to come and get his money. Webb replied by letter that, owing to the position of the Federal army, he could not come to Georgia to receive his money, and instructed him to invest the money in eight per cent. Confederate bonds, and hobf them until he came to Georgia. Tbe executor avers that he did invest the money iu Confederate bonds, in accordance with*the instructions of Webb, and that he did not see Webb until some time in 1866, when he tendered tiie bonds and demanded the notes of the testator, but Webb refused to accept the bonds or to deliver to him the notes. And therefore he prays the Court to issue an injunction to prevent Webb from prosecuting his suit at law to recover the amount of said notes. The application for an injunction was resisteeu by the counsel for Webb, on the ground that no equity is disclosed in the bill, and that the plaintiff has an adequate remedy at law. After tearing the arguments of eonnsel, the Court refused to grant the injunction, holding, if the allegations in the Bill are true, tiie complainant has an adequate remedy at law. Governor J. E. Brown for complainant. Governor J. Johnson for defendant. The petit jury was then called and dis charged until ten o'clock to-morrow morn ing, to which hour the Court also adjourn ed. District Court—Hon. John Erskine, Judge, Presiding—In Admiralty.—Ivrenson & Hawks vs. tiie Steamer Tam inend.—1 he hearing of this case was resumed, and Mr. Lovell concluded a very able argument on behalf of the respondent, in which he went into a thorough and searching analysis of the testimony, and presented the law of the case with great clearness and force, whereupon the Court adjourned to eleven o'clock to-morrow morning. — Savannah Eepublicau. 14 th. Revenue Claims Against Bankkupts. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has rendered the following decision in ref erence to claims against bankrupts: Where the United States is creditor of a bankrupt for taxes, tiie claim may be en forced in two ways. First, by lien against the property, where such lien is attached before the party has been adjudged a bank rupt. In that case it is propor for the Collector to demand, under the au thority of a warrant of distraint, posses sion of the property of the bankrupt to which such lien is attached for the purpose of satisfying the warrant and all lawful charges thereon. Should the Marshal refuse to deliver, the collector shall then submit a motion to the court having jurisdiction of the ease of bankruptcy for an order to the marshal to make the delivery demanded. If the court refuses to make such an order, but will direct that the claim of the Uni ted States be placed at the head of tiie list of claims, to be paid before even cost in bankruptcy, then the collector may accept that otdor. or be may accept any ocher or ders which tbe court may make, which will secure the collection of the whole tax anu costs, as far as practicable, in any law ful way as satisfactory to the Government. Otherwise, proper measure must be taken for a revision of the action of the Court of Bankruptcy. The Albany News makes a sugges tion that is worthy of consideration, not only in Albany, but in other Southern cities. It is that the city authorities buy a number of Mendenhall's Looms and set the women who have to receive public support to weaving cloth upon them—the proceeds of their work to be applied to the support of disabled paupers. Ever since the close of the war we have urged the establishment of cotton facto ries as a means of giving employment to women and children left destitute by the casualties and revulsions of that great struggle. But few have as yet been put in operation, though we believe that the great advantages, if not the necessity, of such institutions are generally acknowl edged. Perhaps the factories cannot be obtained just yet. because of the poverty of the country. The hand-loom proposi tion of our co-lal>orer of tiie News may be more practicable, and may subserve the same end on a smaller scale. We trust that it will receive thoughtful consideration and examination.— Columbus Enquirer. E^" Late intelligence has been received at St. John’s, Newfoundland, from Captain Hall, who is searching the Artie regions for traces of Sir John Franklin's expedi tion. He had determined upon proscuting his enterprise the coming winter, and made every arrangement for the purpose, depos iting supplies at easy stages along the pro posed route. From some hostile Esque- maux he learned that, at about the time of the loss of Sir John Franklin’s vessel, some white men carried a dead body on shore and built a brick vault, which they care-, fully cemented.and in which they deposited the corpse, afterward cover 5 ng* the vault with heavy stone flags. This body Mr. Hall believes to lie the remains of Sir John, and his intention is to visit tbe locality and satisfy himself upon the point, if possible. He has secured many valuable articles for merly owned by Sir John’s party. CSPA Paris letter says: “The manner of the Austrian Emperor was quiet and dignified; not like the King of Prussia, who kept himself in countenance by an air of joyousness which remains to this day an enigma for the Parisians.
