CONSTITUTIONALIST. AUGUSTA, GhA. FRIDAY MORNING. NOV. 16. 1800. FURTHER AGGRESSION. In our news column will be found au extra ordinary call for a grand mass meeting of “loyal veterans” to assemble at Washington during the session of Congress. This call emanates from Loyal Leaguers, said Leaguers being hos tile to the President and by him unsparingly denounced. This is manifestly an attempt on the part of Forney and other leading agitators to over-awe the President, and, if possible, practise upon his fears by intimidation and mob violence. It is the Baltimore game on a mag nificent scale, aud, if pushed to the utmost limit, promises a reign of terror and blood dreuchiug. The Washington papers regard it with unfeigned apprehension. The Constitu tional Union says it “ is nothing more nor less than a Revolution which must be met with de cision and firmness. If Forney & Co. are de termined to persist in tiie course they have marked out, it is the bounden duty of the friends of the President to accept the issue time pre sented, and prepare themselves for the struggle.” ****** * * “Ifthe programme presented by Forney & Co. is the ground upon which the Radical Con gress intends to plant itscif, we say to the friends of the President, let us accept the issue, and at once organize lor the struggle. Let out friends in every hamlet and village organize themselves at once, and be ready for the conflict.” The Intelligencer is not less impressed with the contemplated movement. It alludes to ii in plain speech thus : •>We are pained and shocked to announce, from many sources of reliable information, that the above call looks to the establishment here en permanence of ail organized force, to bo sub ject to the orders of Congress. What the event may be, and what disastrous calamities impend over our beloved country, Heaven only knows. But the ferocious counsels of Butler, Wade and Forney may be carried out by the 1 sword smoking with bloody execution.’ ” “Wo are reminded by this of the threats once mail*? by partisans in New York, to organize an an army of ten thousand men to encamp upon Capitol Hill to overawe the administration of Andrew Jackson.” The Radicals are evidently afraid that An drew Johnson will not consider (lie voice ol the laic elections as the voice of Hie whole people, much less the voice of God. They are determined to push him to extremities and, il possible, force first blood and then howl forth as in 1861, when the memorable gun of Sumter woke the land to arms. The President will need all his address and discretion to checkmate their mad design and ail his adroitness to turn their schemes against them. W hen Rome survived, Cicero plead for justice, defiant or arms and menaces invading sanctuaries of the law. Let the President be equally firm, equally eloquent, equally self-poised, and the mock valor of his antagonists will wither be fore the grandeur of moral force. If, however, as many sadly fear, the principle of morality lias lost its imperial power, the craven whisper ings of expediency may be hushed forever and the issue thus presented met with uuquailiug front. Conservatism, the world over, is yield ing; Radicalism aggressive. Tue more the one gives back, the more the other advances. The more the one concedes, the more the other de mands. The more the one supplicates, the more the other strikes. Finally, there is no limit to exaction—-Conservatism is pinned to the wall -then it must turn or perish. The supreme hour is, it would appear, at hand. When the times shall have ripened enough for Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton to sit in Sena torial robes beside the Hon. Frederick Doug lass ; when white men turn to political ca pons and social sneaks ; when Old England becomes Republican, as it promises, and America despotic, as it promises ; when order is reversed and chaos inaugurated—then reaction may set in and shame the people from their orgies of crime. These are no fancies, but probabilities of our present condition and downward plunge. Foremost Conserva tive journals think it useless for the President to have good intentions if he have, not likewise the godlike will. No ruler ever wished his people more happiness than Joseph the Second of Austria; none ever strove more earnestly to make good his projects. But, there was a'weak streak in his character and this is his epitaph : “Here lies a man who, with the best intentions, was so unfortunate as to fail in every honest ef fort of his life.” We of the South cannot look upon these transactions unmoved. They concern us deeply. While calm and patient, voiceless and orphaned, our sympathies are not extinguished. We re joice that the Conservative party still lives, n spite of disaster; we rejoice that it begins to understand its peril. Our prayers go with it, for they must. The orisons of cloistered vir gins, tile vigils of saintly men, the penance of stricken and desolate nations-these rise like incense to Jehovah. Our prayers should be for peace and good will; these failing, may heaven defend the Right. THE METEORIC SHOWER. The fifteenth instant was the last day of grace vouchsafed by sages for the predicted dance ot meteors. By the time these lines go to press, the great National Convention of Stars will move in unshaken order or break up in an ticipated row. As a fracas of any kind attracts attention, it can not be wondered that so daz zling a Donnybrook as ibis receives such uni versal notice. So very well assured are astrono mers of their horoscope and so confident arc the people of the astronomers’ cunning, that pre parations have been made in other cities to rouse slumberous individuals by stunning bob majors rung from bells in every steeple. We cannot say what instructions “ Big Steve ” and all lesser Stephens may have had, but trust he and his tintinnabulating brethren will keep vigil and sound lusty alarum, when the first star picket fires his signal gun for action, under positive orders from Field Marshal, the red planet Mars. Should the meteoric display fail, it will pos sibly be “ on account of the inclemency ot the weather.” Or, mayhap, the condition ot oili country lias Siifiuenced even the spheres, mak ing strange signs in the superior atmospheres of little consequence to startle, admonish or amuse. Annually, the congealed blood of St. Januakhjs is exposed for liquefaction ; but not every year does the miracle assert itself. To the sins of Italy this catastrophe is assigned. Our sins may provoke even the sky to refuse Its pyrotcchny, as a token of offense. THE UNITED STATES SENATE. The Nashville Union and American states that the Senate is composed at present of thir ty-eight Radicals and thirteen Democrats and Conservatives. The next is likely to have for ty-one Radicals and ten Democrats. The new Senators, thus far, are the Hon. Cornelius Cole, ot California, the Hons. J. S. Fowler and Davh) T. Fatterson, of Tennessee, (who have taken their seats), A. G. Cattbll, of New Jersey, (present Congress) and H. W. Corbett, of Oregon. Only one of these, Senator Pat terson, the President’s son-in-law, is a Demo crat. The complexion will be further changed by the election of a Democratic Senator in Maryland to fill the place of the Hon. J. A. J. Cresswull, Radical, whose term expires next year ; aud in Pennsylvania and New Jersey by the choice of Radicals in place of the Hons. Edgar Cowan and William Wright, Demo crats, the latter deceased. John Evans and Jerome B. Chaffee are the Senators chosen from the proposed new State of Colorado, and Thomas W. Tipton and General John U. Thayer, those chosen from that of Nebraska. These four Territorial Senators are Radicals. Should these Territories be admitted as States in the next Congress, the Radical strength will be forty-five members. Gen. Sherman. —Tne New York Commercial Advertiser states that Lieut. Gen. Sherman, when in Washington, made no secret of his support of the President’s policy. On one oc casion, he said : “ Soldiers have something. else to do now besides fighting. We fought the rebels as long as there were any to fight. What we have to do now, is to secure the ob jects for which we fought We fought to re store the Union; let us now restpre it.” He frequently expressed his surprise and indigna tiou that the Southern States were deprived of the right of representation so long alter the ter mination of the war. SUBSCRIPTION OR NO SUBSCRIPTION. “ An Old Citizen,” in yesterday’s Chronicle $ Sentinel, attempts to draw attention away from objections we urged against subscription. We will restate the points, with some additional ones, that he may make another effort.. The road, so the President of the company asserts, is progressing and free from debt. Therefore, its completion is a question only of time. The stock of the company is not worth 50 cents on the dollar. The company declines or refuses, so we un derstand its President, to receive a loan from Augusta, and yet desires the city to subscribe to its stock at par—thereby enabling it to bor row from other sources—mortgaging its entire property to secure the loan. Some stockholders of thi3 company are wealthy, immensely so, more able to aid the enterprise than the city and keen enough not to let such a good thing slip, by subscribing for more stock, if they were convinced it would pay- The city is deeply in debt and submits to a sliave in order to raise funds, and, in addition, will soon have to issue bonds to a very large amount to meet the subscription due the Milledgeville road, the iuterest ol whieh will augment the amount, to be raised by bor rowing at ruinous rotes. The city has pledged the South Carolina Railroad Company, by formal resolution, that, if that company would subscribe $200,000 in the Milledgeville Railroad Company, no other railroad would be permitted to cross the river to compete with it, unless said competitor first tendered to the South Carolina Railroad Com pany, iu current funds, the amount of that subscription. No subsequent resolution can annul the first, after the South Carolina Rail road Company liad in good faith fulfilled ir,s part of the contract. Will the Columbia and Augusta Railroad make the tender ? The company asking this subscription agrees to pay tax on its real estate. Its charter, and the only one it is operating under, does not so agree. When a charter is set aside for the benefit of one party, it can be easily manipula ted for the benefit of another party. The property of the Columbia and Augusta Railroad consists, at present, of certain ditches, excavations, embankments, etc., mainly paid for in Confederate money. The stock thus rep resented is not worth fifty cents on the dollar ; and yet, for some prospective benefit, by no means tangible or reduced to• certainty, the city is asked to receive it at a fictitious valua tion, or, at all events, at a valuation above its real worth. We do not pretend lo lead the public ; we only claim to admonish, caution or instruct, as the case may be. Our opposition to the sub-j scription movement is neither partisan nor passionate. We have no special interest in the matter, outside what we conceive to be. the welfare ol the city. No one is lead, but all are asked to reflect. Fine schemes on paper do not always bear the golden fruit their projec tors promise and the victim hopes for. We have liad notable examples of this fact. When the country is unsettled and almost on the verge of destruction ; when the city is involved and in danger of greater embarrassment; when retrenchment and economy are becoming watch-words even in the wealthy North, we are asked to trust a gloomy aud uncertain future, to venture hazardously for speculative returns. While we desire to protect the city’s interest, in this matter, wc are, at the same time, willing to aid the road with a large loan, even with the understanding that it may be stopped at Granitoville, pending a more favorable oppor tunity for obtaining funds to insure its comple tion to the city The Columbia and Augusta Railroad Company could, probably, make satis factory arrangements with the South Carolina Railroad Company for the use of that portion of its track, thus deferring an outlay ot over one hundred thousand dollars. We do not argue for victory, but for what we conceive to be a correct principle. Num bers may defeat us, blit it will not be the first time that men have been deaf to prudence and disinterested counsel. GOLORADa This territory will be rushed through Con gress as a State. It has not a sufficiency of population to satisfy Constitutional require ments. What of that ? A large party, headed by the Governor, opposes its admission. What of that ? A Convention is called to protest against admission. What of that V Theni must lie votes maim factored for the Amendment, and so, in spite of deflitient population, in spite of opposition, in spite of protest, in spite ot the very Constitution for whieh so much blood and treasure were ostensibly lavished to sustain— Colorado will become a—so-called—State. Reconstruction Difficulty. The following is a correct copy of a letter from a whilom rebel seeking information of the Attorney General, the name of the writer only being suppressed: Pocahontas Arks October 12 1866 To the Attorney General of the United States— Dear Friend : I am “in the pursue of Knowl edge Under diflcnlties” I want a leg i Opinion, But you are not in duty, bound to notice me, because lam not official—in fact I air toothing, nor nobody—not, even a reconstruct id rebel— reason, Thad.

This, in spite of the fact that no inconsiderable number of negroes who, in former years, had been sold anil taken South have returned to their old homes. What lias become of tills crowd of human beings—not less than two hundred thousand 1 Some, not a very large number, have gone North ; but the remainder, what has become of them V Do the figures of the Frecd inen’s Bureau tell ; or can the imagination of philanthropists suggest ? Oh ! Liberty, what crimes, Ac.— Richmond Whig. Mr. Seward. — Tiie Radicals are tauntiDg Mr. Seward not a little. Ilis prophecy of 40,000 majority in New York for Hoffman is the occasion of much joking. The New York Herald , which is serving radicalism with a new born zeal, assails him with especial delight. It says that the old established firm of “ Weed & Seward, once doing a lucrative business, has at last gone to pieces, and is hopelessly and help lessly bankrupt.” It advises Mr. Seward to leave the Cabinet, and give place to a “vigorous, earnest man ” in the State Department. The Radicals had better not aggravate Mr. Seward. He is a man of the sharpest sagacity and the keenest malice. He is, withal, one of the coolest and most deliberate ol men. He is re ported to have said : “ They think 1 am worn out; I shall teach them something different be fore the year has passed.” That “ Pesky ” Pomeroy.— Brick Pomeroy says that nine-tenths of the elnldnh, born of negro women, in the South, during the last six mouths, say “ keow,” “heow teteu,” “ narth ing,” aud “I guess so.” [Special Correspondence of the Constitutionalist.’] GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.

The main points, as I am informed, in the bill proposed by the Joint Select Committee of both Houses, on the subject of Public Educa tion aud Common Schools, are : 1. A State Superintendent. 2. One County Commissioner. 3. Three Masters, who are to be a body cor porate, to manage the schools in every school district. 4. A Book Board of five—one of whom is the Superintendent—who shall select a system or series of text books to be used in all the schools. It is said to he a simple and easily managed system, differing in many respects from any in use—ns it will, if adopted, repeal all the laws ir. reference to “ Poor Schools,” “ Free Schools,” *fce., heretofore attempted iu this State. This bill will be worthy of serious con sideration by the General Assembly. The importance of some action upon this subject at this term, considering our present condition, is apparent to all, and if no bettor plan can be proposed, it is to be hoped that the Legislature will adopt the one recommend ed by the committee. As, from conversation with members, I can form no decided opinion as to what will be done upon the subject of “ Relief” or the “ County Court,” 1 think it safest not to offer a conjecture as to what will be done, but to wait a few days, and see farther developments. If nothing else is indicated, I think it clear that the Legislature will at least extend the provi sions of the Ist section of the present stay laws to Ist January, 1868, and I think it will inelnde all executions obtained up to June, 1866. And in relation to the County Court, it will cither be re-organized or abolished. lam inclined to think it will stand, but its organization, juris diction, Ac., will be materially changed. The Planters’ Convention assembled in the Representative Hall last evening. Between thirty and forty delegates were present. No thing of importance was done—the Convention having adjourned to mebt again at 3 o’clock this evening. Yesterday Hon. D. M.

The Commercial Journal of that town sayi the officers of the Antelope bring interesting i for mation of discoveries made by Mr. C. F. all, respecting the Franklin expedition.
