The following just and fitting tribute to the tone of the Southern press, under tlie circum stances in which these States are placed, is from Ihe Rochester (N. Y.) Union and Amer ican. “Raving watched with care the progress ol events in the South since the cessation of hos tilities, and having looked with no little solici tude to the press of that section with a purpose to know how the situation was accepted, we are compelled in candor to concede that the de velopments, so far, arc as favorable as true Union statesmen could expect, or the most sanguine hope. The leading journals of the Mouth accept the situation in which they And their States at the close of a war that termina ted adversely to their hopes, and regard the Union as inevitable. They, therefore, have set themselves about helping the people to make the most and the best of their situation—to get. into fraternal relations ouce more with the States that remained loyal—to enter the path of peace, there to cultivate the soil and pursue the avocations of civil life, that will make them again comfortable, and repair, in some degree, fortunes shattered in the conflict. “No one can read the Southern papers with fairness, and without bias, and not admit their tone under the circumstance. To charge that they are offensive, and not conducted with de cency or propriety, is, to say the least, very un just ; hut these charges go out from a source where fairness cannot be looked for—where there is not even that magnanimity for a fallen l'oc that characterize tribes of men who are not classed as civilized. We know that now and then something offensive may be found in a Southern paper, and this is of course seized and circulated and fed upon as a choice morsel by those whose aim is to disturb peaceful rela tions everywhere, and who, in their madness, delight to ride upon the whirlwind they can create.” Modern Young-Ladyism in England.— , If Queen Charlotte, of snuff taking memory, should re-visit the glimpses of the moon, she would sen and hear nucli to make her venerable hair stand on end. —She would stare in mute horror at a pork-pie hat, and shudder at the slang which now-a-days slip so naturally from the lips of sweet seventeen. But what would astonish her most, what would appear to her to amount to little less than a social revolution Would be the total disappearance of that ele ment of distance and reserve which marked the relations between young persons of the opposite sex in her young days. The theory of a young lady’s position is so altered that her grand mother would not recognize it for the same which she herself once occupied in all the glory ol a high-l'rizzled head and a pre ternaturally shortened waist- A better understanding exist between the young people of the two sexes. They mix with each other more, and known each other much more intimately. The wall of partition which used to divide them is thrown down. The pervading tone of their common every-day relation is no longer one of stiffness and for mality, but of boyish frankuess and familiarity. For good or for evil, young ladjdom has aban doned its old attitude toward the other sex of armed observation. For good or for evil, it has been driven by the pressure of its matrimonial exigencies to emancipate itself from the thraldom of old fashioned notions of propriety. It has quitted the old defense, and goes forth now-a-days to encounter man, as diplomatist say, “on its own responsibility.” She was regarded and treated much as a ten der lamb in the near vicinity of wolves. The upproaehes'to the fold were strictly guarded. A duenna, clothed with despotic powers, warn ed off male marauders. This lamb-and-wolf theory is quite exploded. Young ladiesare no longer lamb-like in anything, except it be in the sportive agility with which they frisk over the barriers of ettiquette. Nor is the male sex credited now-a-days with the wolfish propen sities with which a prudish generation invested it. The Sequel. —Mr. John Montgomery, his blushing bride and her indignaut fatlier, Pro fesor Hawkins, were brought up before our Police Court ou yesterday, tbr a breach of the peace. The runways sought an interview with the professor, to try to eoncilate him and get his blessing upon their clandestine iparriage. They fell upon thierknees before him. but, instead of bestowiug, the hoped-for blessing, he spurned them from his presence with such violence that the City Marshall thought it ue cessarv to lodge information against him •and his son-inlaw; for Mr. Montgomery is known to be a man of spirit, and not even for tlie sake of his lovely Griselda would he submit to such outrage, Our colored community are profundly agiated upon the subject.—Frank fort ( Ky.) Yeoman. Professor Hawkins is the agent of the Freed mens Bureau. He is very indignant, strange to say, that bis daughter has married a negro. Is Animat. Food Necessary?— Mr. Cur ling, seventeen years agent on the Devon estate in Ireland, says: “There are 6,680 persons on the estate. They are energetic, moral, and well-behaved. Ido not remember a crime in seventeen years, not even so much as stealing a chicken. They are a contented, grateful people —grateful even for fair play. Out of six hundred farmers, deduct fifty, and the rest do not see a wheaten loaf, or smell meat, except at Christmas and Easter. They have been brought up to this custom. One tenant on the Devon estate I have seen sit down to pota toes, buttermilk and Indian meal, who pur-, chased at a recent sale £lO, 000 worth of prop erty, and did not have to borrow a shilling to pay for it. I believe this to be the usual mode of living in Limerick.” What is Moral, Wiiat is Patriotic Now-' a-Days? —ln Milford, Masschusetts, the chU-< dren of Roman Catholic parents were i'nstruc-, ted not to conform to certain regulations con sisting iu signing moral and patriotic songs and bowing the head during the prayer. The con sequence is that a large number of the Irish childreu are out of school, and have appeared in procession in the streets. Trinity Church Property. —The valuable leases which have been so long held by William B. Astor, of thejlproperty called the Trinity church estate, in New York, expire by limita tion to-day, when the church will come Into the management. The value of the numerous lots included in the leasehold is upt far from six millions of dollars.— ti'ew York Herald. The Late Hon. George E. Badger.— The New York Watchman revives a letter of intro duction to Judge Story, which was given on one occasion by Mr. Webster to Judge Badger. The letter was in the following brief and char acteristic words : “ Dear Sir : I present you my friend, Hon. George E. Badger, of North Carolina—your equal, and the superior of yours, very respect fully, D - Webster. There is an eulogy that will last forever. A negro preacher was fined $5 in Cairo, the other day, for expounding the gospel with his fists, on the head of one of his flock. False eyelashes are announced. £ri-tDcclUi) Constitutionalist. A Georgia Plantation—lnspected by a Northerner. “Our own correspondent” of the New York Times reports to that paper of the 31st from Americus, as follows: There are several very large plantations in this neighborhood where hundreds of freedmen are employed working under the supervision of skilled managers, the owners residing in towns in other portions of the State. I have just re turned from a visit to one of the largest, the property of an “ ex-rebel” of considerable pro minence, where I was most hospitably received by the managers, who showed me all the ins and outs of plantation life with perfect frank ness, explained the internal economy with great cheerfulness, conduced me on horseback over the whole place, and gave me much valuable In formation of a practical character in relation to that all absorbing subject—the crop. I conversed treely with some of the freedmen, went into the houses of several, saw their wives and families, and sincerely wished when I had cancluded my very interesting visit, that Mr. Greeley and other enthusiastic negrophilists who still bemoan the condition of the colored race, could have seen anil heard what I sawand heard. I have traveled a good deal in the course of my life in various countries and climes, and Ido not hesitate to say that I have never seen laborers so well fed, clothed and lodged, so cheerful, contented and comfortable as there. They are all the former slaves of the proprie tor, born and bi ought up on the place where their fathers and grnnfat hers lived before them, and now., under contract for the year, receiving for their labor Ample food of the best quality for themselves and families, full clothing both for summer and winter, their doctors’ bills paid for them, and besides the right to raise fowls, vegetables and syrup, and to have one-fourth of the cotton crop. If you calculate the value of this compensation, I think you will agree with me that no farm laborer in any country gets better wages, and that it must be his own lault if lie does not thrive. Certainly no white la borer at the North can do as well. Besides as. many vegetables as they can cut —peas, beans, cabbage, potatoes, squash, etc., each full hand has three and a half pounds of prime bacon, a peck of meal, some rice and syrup every week, well and cleanly cooked by women employed for the purpose. 1 was present when the hands dined, and can assure you I partook of the meal with considerable relish, however an habitue of Delmouieo’s might turn up his nose at such plain food. The clothing was ample, substan tial and apparently new. Every hand was well shod ; and, with the exception of some women adding to the colored population, a few chil dren, and one or two sickly and infirm men, I never saw a more robust set of people, num bering in all somewhat over two hundred. Their cabins are roomy, well ventilated, neatly whitewashed, and, for negroes, clean and tidy. In all that relates to health and comfort and decency, their cabins are palaces compared to the lodgings of the laborer in New York City. The hours of labor required by the con tract are from sunrise till sunset, with an inter val of two hours for dinner. Oil this particular place the managers informed me that the con tract was faithfully observed, but that this as siduity was an exception and not the rulq»an'd that on other places the trouble was the diffi culty in getting the hands to do full work. , The freedmen witli whom I conversed seemed to take great pride that they “ b’longed on de plantation ;” that they had been born and raised there; and they expressed the warmest affection for their “ ruass.a and de family,” who, “do dey was free, giv doth such a chance to git along.” There is a church and school for the children, kept up at the expense of the proprietor, and well attended, I was told, by both sexes. The cotton and corn crops on this place, con sisting of several hundred acres of both, looked very promising. Tftc seed was carefully chosen, planted in the right time, and well worked. The wheat was almost totally destroyed by a hail storm about three weeks ago. The hogs of all hogdom seemed to have congregated here. I never saw such a drove of all sizes and shapes and ages, all fat and sleek, and enjoying liberty in its fullest and most primitive sense. The ordinary meat crop of this planter is from 80,000 to 100,000 pounds of cured meat. The managers, who are practical farmers of intelligence, having devoted themselves to this puruit, laugh at Mr. Stephens’ three million bales estimate of the growing crop, and think that he showed far more sagacity in answering Mr. Boutwell’s interrogatories tbau in his cal culations about cotton. On my way to this place I met several plant rhrir ptmifirfiOUS "TTI" lIfISHIKt ttlC tier of counties between here and Alabama and Florida. The most sanguine expect a two thirds crop, but the average expectation was a half. They atl condemn the five cents per pound tax in unmeasured terms, as not oniy unjust to the South, but ruinous In its results to the whole country. Mr. Morrill would not be flattered if he could hear the remarks made on the sagacity and honesty of his revenue scheme quoad cotton. The investigation of Generals Steadman and Fullerton into the operations of the Frecdmen’s Bureau in Virginia and North Carolina, affords much encouragement to the people hero that when they probe the concern in this State they 1 will find actual cautery necessary lor a cure. Delinquent and speculative agents may well quake in their boots, for the people are now busy as lawyers before court week, getting up the cases which they are about to submit to the investigating Generals, Nor will white men be the only plaintiffs. There will be freedmen prosecutors, and many of them. Unless lam wickedly deceived, North Carolina malfeasance will pale its ineffectual fires before the exploits of the Bureau’s agents in Georgia. It lias been for months a large negro trading establishment, whose operations were conducted with quite as much cruelty, rapacity and infamy as the most abandoned “ nigger trader” ever practiced in the pursuit of his degraded calling. Such is the common rumor at least, and the stories are very circumstantial. Before la quit this part of “ the State, I mean to visit other plantations in other coun ties, and give you the result of my observation. I have no doubt that this sort of information has far more interest for your readers than any political news I could gather. Politics here are sadly monotonous. The present condition of the people does not promote health. But news of the crops, and of the colored brethren, in volving tlie solution of that great problem— free negro labor—has interest for all, whether they be pure philanthropists of the Sumner school, or political economists of the most ma terial order, concerned in the working of the gigantic experiment now in progress in this section of the country. • Georgia News.

Albany — Southwestern Georgia. —lt is gratifying to witness t he spirit of Improvement which is manifested by our citizens, notwith standing the embarrassments and difficulties with which they have had to contend. Several buildings have been erected, others are in pro gress, and as soon as bricks can he obtained, we learn that extensive and valuable improve ments will he made. Among the aids to in dustry which have recently been established here, are saw. grist and flouring mills, cotton and woolen factory, ifiachine flinishing shop, variety works for planing, making sash blinds and doors, etc. The life and energy of the present give us strong hopes for the future. Southwestern Georgia is a section of which we caunot speak too highly. All things con sidered-soil, climate, adaptability to all the agricultural productions of the temperate zone —the ease with which the laud is cultivated, the certainty of crops, and its susceptibility of im provement—make it one of the best, and it is capable of being made one of the most beauti ful of the many beautiful places on the earth. All that is wanted to these ends are labor and capital.— Albany Patriot. Commerce of Charleston.— The Daily News, of the 4th, says : Our last report of the commdEcial transac tions of the port exhibited an improved ten dency both in the import and export trade. The transactions for the month of May show a falling off in both branches of this trade, and arises tVom a combination of causes. The sales of spring and summer goods have been fully equal to the expectation of those merchants engaged in the import trade, but as the season is now considered fully advanced, there has been a lull in the trade, but few coun try merchants coming to market, being more profitably engaged in agricultural pursuits. The recent heavy failures in England have greatly impaired confidence in our commercial circles, and hence the usual exports of cotton on private account have been very limited, the bulk of the transactions being on accbunt of parties in this country. To this cause more than any other may be attributed the depression and dullness that have characterized the cotton market during the greater part of the month juSt closed. Notwithstanding all these adverse circumstances the following figures show a fair and healthy condition in business transactions : Receipts from customs ... $29,071 05 Dutiable value of merchandise in wareh’se, 23,9*6 15 Value of imports 26,234 00 Foreign exports of cotton 8,973 bis, value, 1,327,516 00 Coastwise exports of cotton 3,031 bales, value 452,864 00 Number of vessels engaged In foreign trade 15, tonnage 4,668 Number of vessels engaged in coastwise trade 116, tonnage 42,471 A maiden lady, not remarkable for either beauty, youth or good temper, came lor advice to Mr. Arnold as to how she should get rid of a troublesome suitor. “O, Mary, marry him !” was the advice. “Nay, 1 would see him hang ed first.” “No, madam, marry him, as I said to you, and 1 asssure you it will not be long before he hangs himself.” The Fenians. The United States authorities seem to be catching all the Fenians as they come hack from Canada, though unable to slop them from go ing over. The report that General Fitz. Lee and other prominent Confederate officers were iu the movement, which was too absurd for contradiction, has died of itself, and is con fessed to be without any authority. We append some items of information in' addition to those by telegraph: ACTION OF THE UNITED STATES AUTHORITIES. Buffalo, June 3. —This afternoon the asso ciated press agent has just returned from a trip to the steamer Michigan, anchared about four miles below the city. There is a large flat boat fastened to her guiis, having on hoard about four hundred men, as near as could be com puted. The Fenian officers captured are on board the Michigan, under guard. The captain of the Michigan is anxiously awaiting instructions as to what he shall do with his prisoners. United States District At torney Dart is also awaiting instructions from Washington as to their disposition. It is con sidered unsafe to bring them ashore, as an ef fort might be made by their friends to release them. There is considerable excitement in this city, but the general feeling is that the Govern ment has done its duty, and our people are glad that the Fenians have fallen into Americau hands, rather than that thfey should have been captured by the British force. It is variously estimated that from 350 to 1,500 men tried to leave here last night in tugs and flat-boats, probably to reinforce the Fe nians, hut owiqg to the arrangements made by the United States Attorney and General Barry, in organizing picket boats, they were obliged to turn hack. It is reported, but the report lacks confirmation, that a force of Fenians have landed at a point about ten miles above here, on Lake Erie, and some fears are expected that G’ollingwood is the point threatened. It is stated that F. O. Day, Head Centre of Buffalo, known as a prime mover in this region, has been arrested on the other side, but this is not confirmed. A portion of two British regiments, the 10th and 47ih, with seven companies of volunteers and two batteries, now occupy the entire sliore opposite here, to repel any fresh invasion from this place. .. By order of General Grant, General Barry has iiad his military district extended, ancf it now embraces the northern frontier from Lake Erie to Oswego. A large additional force of regulars has been ordered to report to hint here. THE FENIAN CHIEFTAINS. The officer who captured Fort Erie, Col. O’Neil, is a young and ardent Fenian, who is now in his twenty-fifth year. He was formerly connected with the 10th regiment of regulars, and served in that organization under Gen. Sweeney. He was well known as a dashing cavalry officer in the late war, when he was at tached to a Western regiment. He was pro moted to a captaincy for daring gallantry. Col. O’Neil, it will he remembered, was the officer who captured the Confederate John Morgan, whose sword he has how in his possession. The sword was previously presented to Morgan by some English sympathizers with the South. GENERAL SPEAR. This general, who lias charge of the Fenian brigade who are now quartered in Canada, was formerly a sergeant-major in the 6th regiment of United States Infantry. He is an able officer. COLONEL MURPHY. The record of this officer, who served during the late war, is one which shows him to tie fit for the position he nu’w occupies. He was for merly colonel of the 107th New York Volun teers, one of the well known regiments which joined the Corcoran Legion. GENERAL WESSELS, another leading officer in the Fenian army, is the well known officer who commanded the Department of North Carolina during the war. He is h graduate of West Point. One hundred and fifty men left Washington City on the 3d, supposed to be soldiers for the Fenian army, all of whom served in the Federal army during the war. It is reported that Colo nel F. O’Byrne has joined the Fenian army as Assistant Adjutant General on the staff of Gene ral Sweeney. The Feuian headquarters of Washington for the sale of the bonds of the Irish Republic has closed lor want of patron age. The Head-Centre of Ireland. Jamoe «t,- . liiiunx- J- no re lt«*XT week and will have an ovation at Washington Park on Friday, for which preparations arc now being made. HO, FOR CANADA ! About one thousand Feifians passed through this city on Friday night, en route from Phila delphia to Eric—their destination, of conre, be ing Canada. They were clothed in citizens, dress. Two locomotives were required to draw the train on which the “ Fenians ” were pas sengers.—Harrisburg Telegraph- Buffalo, June 3. —The Fenians evacuated Fort Erie last night. Most of them attempted to reach this shore. A small number succeeded. «reral hundred were gobbled up by the United tes boats guarding the river, and are now' soners in a large fiat boat under the guns of the United States gunboat Michigan, at Flat Rock. The English forces, under Col. Peacock, took possession of Fort Erie without a skir mish. The ultimate disposition of the prisoners is a matter of conjecture. The British Minister lias been telegraphed to on the subject. Gen. O’Neil’s staff are among the captured. Three hundred and thirty-two Fenian pickets left by their friends, fell into the hands of the British. Attempts were made to seud reinforcements across to Canada, but were prevented by the United States gunboats. Escaped Fenians re port that they had no artillery and finding that the British troops with Armstrong guns were closing around them and no prospect of rein forcements and no supplies they preferred abandoning the ease in preference to hanging, which they anticipated for their capture. By order of General Barry, communication is for bidden with the Canadian shore. New York, June 3.— The colonel of the Canadian volunteers was killed at the first fire. Lieut P. 8. Routh was rtiortally wounded.— When dying the lienteuant asked Gen. O'Neil to return his sword, and permission was grant ed. After the retreat some volunteers took refuge on a steam tug in the river, but after wards went, ashore and attempted to capture a squad of Fenians. A large body suddenly ap peared and attacked the volunters, who fled precipitately and scattered through the woods. Seventy of them were captured. Many ran along the beach, which was covered with guns and knapsacks. Sherman’s Bummers at Home.— The New York News of Wednesday says: Several militia parades oecured at East, 'New York recently, but the conduct of the Fourth Regiment (Zouaves), Coloenl John E. Bendix, on Monday, was inexcusbale. Some of the members recklessly shot, a horse in the head while standing in front, of a wagou on Broad way. (or Davison Avenue, as it is more gener ally known.) The horse belongs to Mr. James Pilling, who resides in that vicinity. The horse was not killed but rendered worthless. The men of this regiment also stopped a baker on the road, and while some held him, others actually cut. out his pocket with a knife, and robbed him of $9. They also “cleaned out” Simmon’s Hotel, at the end of the Fulton Avenue route, in a manner not at all creditable to decent men. The proprietor was compelled to close his place. In returning through At lantic street to South Ferry, the militia men shot their muskets out of the car windows and endangered the lives of citizens. Trial of Major Gee.— The Raleigh corres pondent. of the \New York Herald thus writes concerning this interesting ease: The Military Commission which has been in session lor several weeks at this place engaged in the trial of Major John IJ. Gee, late of "the Confederate service, and keeper of the prison pen at Salisbury, for cruelty to Union prison ers, has adjourned until the" 11th instant. It is estimated that the trial, up to the present time, has cost the Government a hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and yet they have foiled to es tablish an iota of proof criminating the pris oner. Pei- contra , it is shown that lie did all he could, with the means at his command, to alle viate the wants of the Union men in bis custo dy. The authorities at Washington should forthwith discontinue the trial before a hundred thousand dollars more is expended, censure sjie court for its prodigality and discharge the pris oner. True as Holy Writ.—Mr. Hamilton writes to tlie New York World apropos of the Holly wood demonstration: “If the mere exhibition of love and respect for their departed kindred be held against the Southern people as proof of incipient disloyalty and defiance, then let every northern tyrant who would deny them this last poor and only boon remaining, understand once for always that they must annihilate every man, woman, and child in the South before they can claim that despotic hold upon their consciences. Not while life remains will Southern men and women cease to cling to those natural affections for the graves of their loved, ones which all civilization sanctions and approves, which are recognized by contending armies, even in the wildest fury of the battle-field, and which are more or less respected even among all untu tored savages.” Insanity. —The different sorts of insanity are developing rapidly. We have “ paroxys mal ” insanity, “ temporary ” insanity, “ pe riodical” insanity, “catamenial” insanity, “ spasmodic " insanity, “ insane delusions,” and “homicidal” insanity. The latter, we suppose, might be divided into “ fratricidal,” “ maternal,” “ paternal,” “ matrimonial ” and “neighborly” insanity. If we keep on, the only son of insanity that will not excuse a man for murder will be a genuine insanity. AUGUSTA, (Ga.) FRIDAY "MORNING, JUNE 8, 1866. Augusta Post Office.
