Tlie Dii’iesclmient Qiicadou.
It is stated that Mr. Edward McPherson, Clerk
of tho House of Representatives, upon arriving
at Washington for tin; purpose of opening bids
for stationery for the House, declared that it
“may do very well to talk about impeachment
before the people, hut he does not think it can
be accomplished, because there is too much dif
ference of opinion upon the subject am mg the
members of the Republican party.”
We attach some importance to what Clerk
McPherson may say upon impeachment or any
thing else, for, we must confess, unprincipled as
we conceive him to be, his former predictions,
unreasonable us they appeared to be, turned out,
in most instances, to be true. We have, there
fore, learned to put some faith in them, as we
do in what lie says about impeachment.
The 4'nlil'ornlit Platform.
The Radical papers of the North have at
tempted to explain away the defeat of their
party in tlie recent California election, and have
alleged that it was no party contest. Whether
it was, or was not, the following is the platform
upon which tlie Democrats went into the politi
cal fight, and won their victory:
“1st. Opposition to the Congressional plan of
reconstruction, that regards the States of the.
South as Territories.
2d. Iu favor of the reunion of till the Slates
on the basis of tho Federal Constitution, with
slavery abolished.
3d. Opposition to negro, Chinese and Indian
suffrage.
4tli. Affirming the right t<-> regulate suffrage to
belong to the States exclusively.
fitli. All taxation should be equal and uni
form.
tltli. Opposition to an increase of State in
debtedness, and in favor of retrenchment, and
economy in the administration of the govern
ment.
9th. Opposition to immigration of any people
other than the white nice.
Sih. The encouragement of labor, and in favor
of the eight-hour law.”
ItenlKtratlon lit Georgia.
In our last issue we staled that a report had
reached us to tlm effect that the result of regis
tration in this State showed a majority of some
three thousand lor the whites. The Era, of the
same date, says:
•• We have been credibly informed that the re
gistration of votes in Georgia has been concluded.
The result, we learn, is as follows:
Whole ti urn her of while voters— .. 95.S3S
Whole uumbar of colored voters 9.5,390
Total number of voters registered 1SS,72S
Majority white voters 1,948
We understand that the details will be made
out, and supplied iu a few days, which will no
vary much either way from the above.”
This, to say the best of it, is a very e.xtraordin
ary result There must have been very great
default on the part of the whites in registering;
a much larger disfranchisement ol them than we
had supposed under the military bills; or a li
cense extended to freedmen in registering
amounting to au abuse of that privilege; to have
produced such a result. Time will tell whether
to the latter, or to either of the former causes,
this extraordinary result is to be ascribed.
“John Brown” and thk Queen.—The Jour
nal of Commerce protests against the “John
Brown” scandal with which certain gossipping
journals arc associating the spotless name ot
Queen Victoria. The editor rehearses the origin
of the scandal, thus:
“Brown, it seems, is a Highland ‘gillie,’ (or
henchman) who was a particular favorite ol
Priuce Albert, and -utter the death of the Con
sort. retained his place in the royal household.—
Being a faithful, attached servant, ot mature
vea r t, with a very rare knack ot always being
around wlicu wanted, and oi making himselt
generally useful, he soon came to be a personal
attendant of the Queen in places where a male
servitor was absolutely necessary. All this was
natural and proper, and provoked no remark
until tho Queen sat fora full-leugth portrait to
Sir Edwin Landseer, and caused to be painted
in the background a horse held by this gigantic
.lotin Brown. The man and the horse were re
minders ot Albert; and as the painting waste rep
resent the Queen in iier widowed state, in black,
the introduction ol these accessories was appro
priate aud affecting. Upon this single circum-
I(],• tool bird ot scattilai Listened its beak.
Punch, whose talent tor scurrility has long out
lived its humor, published some doggerel verses
ou John Blown, in which, of course, more was
hinted than said, which is iho most poisonous
van of a scandal. This struck the key-note to
a chorus of calumnh s. The principal London
dailies keep quite clear ot them, but the London
correspondents of provincial papers gave lull

Came up to the Republican Maas Meet'
lug, 4tli July Lass—Taken Down by an.
Ear Witness.
Ben Jones.—Well Jemes how do you do!
Spose you come up to the meeting to see about
the politics.
Jf.mes Johnsing.—I’m very well Ithank Ben,
I didn’t come up though to the meeting in par
ticular—used to live here belore freedom come,
but been making a crop, work was putty light
’fore I left.
Ben.—You went to the speaking to-day,
didn’t you?
Jemes.—Yes, I eluded I’d go, as Tilda came
up and said she wanted to’ go to see the crowd.
Ben.—Well Jemes, how’s things going down
your way ? You secs the reason I asks you this
is, case I am going to be a politician.
Jemes.—Ben to tell you de fact, de way de
men talked to-day was mighty strange to me,
they ail say they b’long to the ’publican party,
and that we ought to b’long to the ’publican,
cause the ’publican party freed us and is our
friend, don’t they say that Ben ?
Ben.—Yes, dat is the way dey talk, at least
Mr. Macum, Mr. Dunning and Mr. Farrow talk
that.
Jemes.—I tell you Ben, that won’t do—’publi
can party didn’t freg us; didn’t Mr. Lincoln write
to Mr. Alex. Stephens, and say he wasn,t going
to free us, wasn’t he the head of the ’publican
party ? No Ben that won’t do, this thing of free
dom come from God, don’t de Scripture say,
“ Every tub shall stand on its own bottom, and
every man shall live by the sweat of his own
eye brow,” dat’s protecy, and clis freedom is the
fulfillment of de same. Now Ben just hold
right here one minut, these men what is so ram
pant to make dein selves known in the ’publican
party, how did dey stand, let’s enquire after ’em,
before we subscribe to elevate ’em ; didn’t God
make the rebels.
Ben.—Yes, dat’s admited.
Jemes.—Didn’t the rebels make war to seprate
from the Government?
Ben.—Yes, dat’s ’nother truth.
Jemes.—Well now wasn’t we freed by the
war V
Ben.—I don’t know as I understands you.
Jemes.—We wouldn’t been free il we hadn’t
had war would we.
Ben.—Dat is so.
Jemes.—Well wasn’t Mr. Macum, and dese
’publican posed to war.
Ben.—Yes.
Jemes.—Well, if their plan was carried, and
no war, then we’d been slaves this day. Now,
if that’s so, ain’t we as much indebted to the
rebs, who made the war, as dese ’publicans, who
was mad and cussed the rebs for it ?
Ben.—Dat’s so.
Jemes.—Well, Ben, you see we ain’t as much
’debted to the ’publicans as we is to the rebs.
Ben.—But, Jim, the rebs, or ’servative party,
don’t want us to vote, and de great question
now ’tore us is, intention or no intention. I
goes in for invention; dx.t’s ’nother reason I’s
or ’em. New you see, Jim, if de votes go for
intention, dey go right to de Norf—and dat’s
right; and if dey go no intention, dey go ’tother
side of the Mississippi, right up in the Norfwest.
Well, dat’s all wrong.
Jemes.—I know, Ben ; ’tother side of de Mis
sissippi won’t do. Inguus will get all de votes,
aud won’t be wo-tli noffing. I go iu for inven
tion, case dat won’t hurt free niggers, you know.
But what about consecration, Ben ?
Ben.—I am agin that—don’t do no good to
consecrate, cause some tolks will git all the land
agin, and we’ll have to consecrate every four or
five years. Dat wou’t do. Nobody won’t want
to get anything If dey start dat game.
Jemes.—Ben, just sure as you arc born, some
body been voting too much iu dis country, ’fore
the freedom come. Don't the speakers say the
smart voters led the ignorant ones into the war?
and won’t human nature do the same thing, aud
make the nigger vote himself in trouble? I’s
got to go, Ben; Tilda’s waiting. Let me ’mind
you of what Solomon said, and den you watch
dese ’publican white folks: “ Friendship is one
thing, and self-interest is another.”

Under the foregoing heading, we notice in the
Columbus Enquirer, of the 22d instant, an ad
dress of Col. R. J. Moses, to the adored people
of this State, written “at the solicitation,” says
the writer, “of some colored persons with whom
1 have conversed upon the duties of the hoar,
and how they should be performed by the col
ored peopleand from which we make the fol
lowing extract, commending it to the attention
of the colored people in this vicinity:
The negro is suddenly made free—the whole
rule of life is reversed with him ; his comforts
now depend on the labor of his bauds; if he
works faithfully, his comforts will be many; if
he works little, his comforts will be lew. Upon
his labor depends the care he will have in sick
ness—the provision he will have in age. All
these tacts and duties are snddenly thrust upon
him, and he has to meet them with the educa
tion of a life-time driving him in exactly the
opposite direction. Is it wonderful that the ne
gro should not learn in a day what the white
man has taken a life-time to acquire? Is it
strange that he should cling to his habits of ease,
and not learn in a day to love and seek labor as a
means wherewith to invest himself with the com
forts of life? Is it remarkable that he should be
lazy under the same circumstances that would
make a white man lazy ? 1 think not. 1 think the
wonder is that they are learning the lesson so soon
as they do; that they are so rapidly acquiring in
dustrious habits despite the baleful influences
with which Radical emissaries have surrounded
them.
The first social duty of the negro is to seek la
bor, work faithfully, fulfill his contracts, and
cultivate the good will and kind feelings of his
former master, the landholder of the country to
whom he must look for employment, for his peo
ple are an agricultural people, and the great ma
jority of them must live by agricultural labor.
“He should do this to increase his comforts,
educate his children, and provide for sickness
and old age. He must learn to live in his chil
dren, and hope to see them derive the benefits to
arise from his labor and frugality. He i9 rapidly
acquiring a knowledge of these things, and if
not turned aside by foolish aspirations after po
litical power, or mischievous DOtions of acquir
ing by robbery, under the name of confiscation,
laud and property which he can never possess
except by the labor ot his hands, he wiH have
an opportnity in a few years of showing that the
love ot ease is not peculiar to the negro, and that
the love of labor for the increased comforts
which labor will command is common to both
races; the great difference in the relative indus
try of the races being a difference of education,
which the black man is rapidly overcoming, and
not, as is generally supposed, a difference ot col
or only.
“ In concluding this letter, let me advise you
to shun the stranger who has no interest in the
land, and is thrusting himself between you and
your former master for his own selfish purposes
aud uot for your good. Cultivate good feelings
with those you have known always, and who
must live and die with you in our Southern land.
“Remember your homes and our homes are
together, the graves of your children and our
children rest beneath the same sod. Oar Geor
gia is your Georgia; our prosperity is your pros
perity. You are a part of tne State, and Geor
gia cannot be a rich, a happy State for the white
man, unless it is also a rich and happy State for
the negroes. Our interests are the same. If our
crops are good your wages are good; if our
crops are bad your wages are low. If corn is
low for the white man it is low for the black. If
bread is scarce and high for the white man, it is
scarce aud high for the black man. It you are
industrious and frugal, and the white man is in
dustrious and frugal, the State and all who live
in it will be prosperous and happy; but if we
quarrel among ourselves the land will lay waste,
idleness will beget bad passions, bad passions
will beget strife, strife will make us lift our hands
against each other, and Georgia will weep for
the madness of her children.”

Father O’Neil.
The Charleston Gazette of the 14th instant,
contains the following complimentary notice of
this distinguished and popular divine, which will
be read with satisfaction by his hosts of friends
everywhere:
The very Rev. J. F. O’Neil of the diocese of
Savannah, some three weeks since paid a visit
to Charleston, the scene of his early missionary
life. On last Sunday, at the solicitation of Rev.
C. J. Croghan, he preached at SL Joseph’s, Anson
street. The bare announcement of the tact was,
of coarse, sufficient to fill the church to its utmost
capacity. After the Gospel had been read at the
Mass, the Reverend gentlemen ascended the
steps ot the altar, and seated himself in a chair
prepared for him, and delivered one of the most
telling and appropriate sermons it was our lot
ever to listen to. His discourse was upon the
Blessed Virgin; and he approached the subject
with a fearlessness worthy a veteran knight, who
had consecrated his life in defense of tiie
honor of our Lady in heaven. Placing himself,
in spirit, in the garden of Eden, at the very
dawn of creation, which, alas! was so soon
changed into bleak night by the transgression oi
our first parents, he carried his hearers with him
through this valley of tears, and showed that
for four thousand years not one among the
daughters of Eve had been found worthy to be
the mother of the Redeemer of the human race.
We shall not attempt even an outline of his elo
quent diecourse, since this wonld be altogether
superfluous; but we confess it did our heart
_ood as we gazed upon the venerable patriarch,
now close upon his ninetieth year, and heard his
voice ring out clear and loud as ever, re-echoing
the pleans of other days, in defense of the faith
once delivered to the saiuts and transmitted to
us from former generations. It will be gratifying
to his thousands of friends to learn that the rev
erend gentleman is improving in health, and
continues in the enjoyment of excellent spirits.’
Trouble amongst the Freedmen.—We are
informed that a serious difficulty took place at
Camp Pickney, Charlton county, on last Satur
day afternoon about 3 o’clock, between Mr. Lan
caster, overseer for Col. E. Bucks, who has a dis-
tilletry at that place, and some negroes employ
ed, resulting in the shooting in the thigh of one
ol the negroes. No farther difficulty occurred
during the day; but on Sunday afternoon two
uegroes, armed with doable barreled guns, made
their appearance at Mr. Lancaster’s house and
demanded satisfaction for the injury done the
other negro on Saturday, stating at the same
time that they intended to take his life. Three
persons who were in a back room of Mr. Lan
caster’s residence heard the reports of eleven
shots, and on repairing to the front of the house,
they found Mr. Lancaster standing in the door,
pistol in hand, and one ot tlie negroes lying
dead about sixty yards from tlie house and an
other wounded, with their guns near them,
which were found to have been recently dis
charged.
Mr. Lancaster was seriously wounded, having
received several buckshot in his hands and body,-
and his horse, which was hitched in front of the
door, was billed.
On the succeeding Monday Mr. Lancaster and
Captain Tim Nungazer, a gentleman who was
in the house at the time of the difficulty, were
arrested, but after a lull hearing before Judge R.
A. Baker and a magistrate, were acquitted.
On that day Messrs. Lancaster and Nungazer
started for St. Mary’s, and on arrival there they
were arrested by a sergeant of the Federal
troops, hut upon showing that they had been
examined by the civil anthorites and acquitted,
he released them. Soon after this, about twenty
armed negroes seized them and threatened ven
geance. Mr. Nungazer succeeded in escaping by
swimming the river, but Mr. Lancaster was ta
ken off by them, and it is feared he has been
murdered. Much excitement exists in Charlton
county.—Savannah New <fc Herald.
The Archduchess Sophia, mother of the late
Emperor Maximillian, has not been to visit their
Imperial Majesties on their journey to Salzburg.
This has been remarked upon, aud the German
press has given currency to various speculations
upon the cause of her abstention. The Corres
pondence Generate ol Vienna, supplies the reason !
as follows: “Iier Imperial Highness, sunk in
profound grief by the sanguinary event of Quer-
eta.ro, has vowed, as a sign of her unutterable
sorrow, to wear mourning for the rest of her
days. Hence she did not go to Salzburg, but
was certainly there in spirit and in heart.”
Specie Payment.—The New York Times
talks as if it were utterly hopeless to return to
specie payments while this generation of men is
on the stage:
Onr opinion is (says the editor,) and has been,
for a year or more past, that there is no real pop
ular sentiment in thi3 country in favor of hasten
ing a return to payment in gold, and will not be
until we have taken at least as much time to re
duce our greenback legal tender system to a
point at which we can safely begin to calculate
upon the proper time for making it equal to gold,
as the four years of war in the course of which
it was originally substituted for gold. It 19 evi-
dent from the course of gold since tbe peace ot
' 1865, that the efforts of the Secretary of the
Treasury to hasten the day of resumption have
proved ineffectual, and he may deem himself for
tunate if the next session of Congress should not
reverse, directly or indirectly, nearly all that he
has practically accomplished in the way of cur
rency contraction since his Fort Wayne speech
of October, 1865.”

Gambling by Rail.—A New York paper
says: Since the introduction of smoking cars
with card tables upon onr roads many profes
sional gamblers who formerly operated on steam
boats have betaken themselves to the rail, and
ply their vocation among the unsuspecting rep
resentatives from the rural regions. Travelers
are solicited lo take a hand at the card table tor
amusement, and are then persuaded, in order to
“give more interest to the game," to stake at first
a small and afterwards large amounts. On nearly
all of our roads this card gambling is becoming
a daily occurrence, ana, unless suppressed,
threatens to become universal.
Washington Hatters.
Washington, Sept. 23.—The correspondence
between Orr and Sickles will be published. It
is quite long. In alluding to Gen. Sickles, Mr.
Orr says: “I desire to express to you the great
regret which I feel personally and officially to
the course taken by the President and his ad
visers in this matter.” Gen. Sickles replies,
explaining his course, thanking the Governor
and argues the case generally.
Gen. Grant has referred to Mr. Stanbeiry Fitz
John Porter’s application for a new trial. The

ing a new trial.

Judge Beese and Den. Pope.
Augusta, Sept. 23.—Judge Reese of the Su
perior Court, writes that Gen. Pope cannot cany
out the recent jury orders; the same being in vio
lation laws of Georgia and the State and Federal
Constitutiona Judge Reese claims registration
entirely optional, not compulsory; and because
a man who may be otherwise a loyal citizen
does not register, it is no reason, why he should
be excluded from serving on jury. Gen. Pope
replies, that the Military bills give him the right
to set aside any law of a State, which comes in
conflict with the Military bill. Orders No. 53
and 55 were issued by virtue of power vested in
him by Congress, and considers the jury orders
necessary to the execution of the reconstruction
acts, which become laws in the manner provided
by the Constitution; as a question the constitu
tionality has been presented to the Supreme
Court, and that tribunal has decided that it
had no jurisdiction ; the further consideration of
that question by subordinate military or judicial
officers is scarcely admissable. Gen. Pope con
cludes by requiring Judge Reese to carryout his
orders. Reese in his second letter goes over
similar grouud, arriving at the conclusion that
he cannot conform to Popes orders, but shall
continue the duties of his office a3 heretofore,
till prohibited. Pope then requested Reese to
resign, which he refused to do, but considers his
letter as a positive prohibition against further
exercise of the judicial power.
Call for a meeting In Raleigh, N. C.
Raleigh, Sept. 23.—The Progress and Sentinel,
two Conservative newspapers, will contain the
following call ol a primary meeting of the Con
stitutional Union men to-morrow, signed by over
two hundred influential citizens :
Conservative Constitutional Union Men of Wake
County :
The. undoreigned citizens of Wake county,
friends to the American Union, and supportere
of the Constitution of tbe United States, being
convinced that the incorporation of the Brown-
low-Holden radical programme into the Consti
tution of the State, would surely embarrass, if not
annihilate all enterprise and all hopes of re
cuperation ;"would discourage all immigration
totally overthrow the investment of capital, and
diminish and destroy the source of employment,
our laboring population do most earnestly im
plore all conservative citizens of every county
in the State to hold meetings lor the adoption of
such plans as they may deem wisest and best for
uniting and consolidating the conservative influ
ence of the State, to effectually prevent the suc
cess of the nltra Republican or Radical rule over
our^ State organization; The Congress of the
United States has cut us off from all participa
tion, at present, in national politics. Nothing is
left us but the care of our State institutions. This
movement has nothing to do with national poli
tics, or with hindering or attempting to obstruct
the operation of any law of Congress. It has
simple reference only to preventing the incor
poration ot those Radical principles and meas
ures into our State organization, which
would place the control and government of
our State in the hands of the ignorant, vicious and
most unprincipled among us; which would cer
tainly result in the destruction of the enter
prise and vitality of the State. All aid or en
couragement, therefore, which the movement
could give to the friends of constitutional liberty
and free government elsewhere, wonld simply te
incidental. We, therefore, urge all conservative
constitutional anion men of the county of Wake,
holding these views, to unite wtth us in holding
a meeting at the Court House in this city on
Friday, 27tli inst, to efteetthe above object. We
urge onr fellow citizens to unite with us or hold
meetings iu tueir several precincts.

Clouds will Come.
BT MELODIA.
“ AU that’s bright mnat fade.
The brightest still the fleetest.”
The matin birds, the eastern sky,
Oft usher in a cloudless day;
Nor do we dream that by-and-by
Its loneliness will pass away.
Yon orb so blue, so calm, so bright.
Will darkeu’d be ere set of sun;
And drear, dismal as the uight.
Will be the day so fair begun.
Yes 1 clouds will come, and gloom will spread
Itself athwart the heavens so clear;
And we be left to weep as dead,
Our hopes that were so fond, so dear.
In youth how rosy is each hour,
Swift-winged they flit unheeded past ;
Nor care, nor grief possess the pow’r,
Their shadows o’er our sky to cast.
But Time's effacing touch can turn
Life’s glowing tints to darkest hue ;
And we the lesson sad mast learn.
That all that's fair must fade from view.

American ITIill-Stones.
We notice the following in the New
American Artizan :
Miil-stones are extensively manufactured in
this country, but the stones or material from
which they were formerly made was imported
exclusively from the great mineral basin of Paris
and some of the districts adjoining. This mate
rial is called buhr stone, and is of a peculiar
formation. It is a form of silica, occurring in
large masses, and of an irregular and cellular
texture, the cells being crossed by thin plates or
coarse fibers. It is as hard as flint, but has not
the brittle character ot flint, and it owes its
value to this hardness and the cells, which give
it a very rough surface.
As we observe miil-stones we notice that they
are made in the form ot wheels, the greatest di
ameter being about four feet six inches and de
creasing until some are less than half that size.
The weight of the larger pairs is about a ton
and a half, and the cost is about two hundred
dollars per pair. To form the stone of the
proper shape for the mil^ tlie rough blocks are
cut into wedge-shaped parallelepipeds called
panes, which are hound together by iron hoops
and cemented with plaster ot Paris. In the best
stones for wheat or corn the cavities or cellules
about equal iu space tlie solid part.
To learn that extensive quarries of buhr stone
actually exist in the United States may be sur
prising to many persons, yet such is actually the
case, and these quarries are wrought and the
stones pronounced by those who have tried the
manufactured mill-stones to be of as good quality
as the imported material. A valuable quarry has
been opened in Georgia,near station No. 10, about
seventy miles from Savannah, upon the railroad
to Macon. These quarries have been secured by
an American company and are now being ex
tensively worked, and the stones are sent to va
rious places after being made up into miil-stones,
and although much prejudice has existed in re
gard to American stones, yet this is being over
come and they are coming into use and favor.—
The company which is bringing out this valua
ble deposit has its depot at 72 and 73 West street,
New 'i'ork city, and is known as the “American
Dirmand Buhr Mill-stone Company.”
Accident at the Central Railroad—A
Negro Killed Through his own Folly.—
Yesterday afternoon, while the attaches of the
Freight Engine Department of the r >ad were
engaged in switching the freight cars off the pas
senger track, a negro was killed under the fol
lowing circumstances: He was riding upon
what is technically known as the bumper, a very
dangerous position, but persisted in maintaining
his place after repeated warnings. His impru
dence and resistance cost him his life; for in a few
seconds after receiving the last warning he fell
from his position, and five freight cars passed
over him, the wheels passing over one side of his
body .immediately crushing out the life of the
man. His corpse was horribly mangled. Of
course no blame is attached to any one but him
self, and we trust his fate may prove a warning to
others.—Savannah News & Herald.
A Fair Offer.—“ Make,” said Dr. Franklin,
“ a full estimate of all you owe, and all that is
owing to you. Reduce the same to a whole. As
fast as you collect pay over to those you owe. If
you cannot collect renew your noJ.es every year,
and get the best security you can. Go to busi
ness dilligently ; waste no idle moments; be very
economical in all things; discard all pride; be
faithful in your duty to God, in private and pub
lic worship, and do unto all men as you would
they should do unto you. It you are too needy
in your circumstances to give to tlie poor, do
whatever else is in your power for them cheer
fully; but, if you cud. always help the worthy
poor and unfortunate. Pursue this course dili
gently and sincerely for seven years, and if you
are not happy and independent in your circum
stances, come to me and I will pay your debts.”
