Many of our friends, who are quite will ing to entertain the wildest street rumor, affect to believe that the meeting of nota bles at the Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs was the result of accident, ami has no meaning beyond a masquerade. We cannot agree with them. On the contra ry, we opine that the convocation of dis tinguished parties from, both sides of the line was preconcerted and lull ol momen tous designs. Dr- Bag by, editor of the Native Virginian, and celebrated, of yore, as Hermes, of the Charleston Mercury —Dr. Bagby assumes the nod, and discourses mysteriously. Hear him: “ A movement of a politico-military nature, and ot the utmost importance, is on loot. We are not permitted to say more at this time.— If the movement succeed, and we see no good reason why tt should not. Grant’s imperial aspirations will be checked effectually. For t'ue tirst time, we see a ray ot clear light. Par ticulars may be looked for irorn a point West of this, at no distant day.” The Herald's correspondent says: “ General Koeeerana has held his conference with General Lee, Beauregard, A. 11. Stephens and other Southern leaders, but the purport of the consultation is as yet unknown. It is be lieved to have been satisfactory, and* an ad dress in i conle w’dl proha^ly;J^e. issued soon in tlie name of the leading spirit* nl the Confederacy.” Some speculators aver that this promis ed address will be a solemn declaration, on the part of the South, of the freedom of tlie negro, per omnia'scecida saseiiloruin. As any intention to rc-cnslave tlie negroes lias already been formally denied, such an ad dress would be, in a great degree, super fluous and the forerunner of thousands more, since a fresh allocution would be neces sary to pacify and mitigate every novel falsehood of the enemy. While we do not pretend to deny that something of the kind may be even now hatching, as the result of the Greenbrier pow-wow, it would be far more dramatic and Napoleonic to conceive that ItosE crans’ Mexican mission may mean mischief to Juarez and a future for the irrepressible freedmenof the South. The United States would upset Mexico in a jiffy, if the way was clear. How shall the way be cleared without finding a cams belli with the mur derer of Maximilian, and the assent of the South to keep the peace in tlie rear of inva sion. It is a foolish bugaboo to suppose that the South is at all warlike, but still, the buga boo may exist, and the “ best government, etc” may desire to remove even shadows from its path. Now, tlie South may enter Into this arrangement, if she can see any benefit in it to herself. What good may eventuate ? We see a great possible good; no less than tlie removal of the vexed ques tion of tlie Negro from American politics, by transferring it to the so-called “ Halls of the Montezumas.” Suppose Rosecrans, as the oracle of the Government, pronounces the doom of Mexico. Immediately there after, a general proclamation could be is sued to the blacks inviting them to help conquer a land which would be a perfect paradise to them, and where they could in dulge tlieir social equality theories to their hearts’ content. In this country their des tiny must be an evil one; first, an almost total loss of political influence, and then, final extinction from natural, if not hostile, causes. Bat Mexico offers them salvation, honors, a glittering suture—ls they can com mand them, by having everything their own way under tropic skies and without the perpetual encroachment of fierce civiliza tions. Thus, at one magnificent stroke, the United States will be pacified and Mexico made no worse. It is a flrstrate prospect, if it be practicable. The only fear is Gens. Lee and Rosecrans may not see it through these lamps. If not, we still con tend that the idea is a fine one. It may be made light of by future revelations. If so, we can console onrselves as our famous orator, Hon. Ben Hill, did, daring a recent speech. He was entering into a philoso phical review of the situation, when some rabid individual screamed out, “ What about Gibson ?” “My friend,” retorted Mr. Hill, “ I was pursuing a right good train of thought, and yet you interrupt me with a very small matter.” If Rosecrans does not agitate the Mexi can puddle and douse the negro question at the same time, we must insist that it is another Gibson case; unless indeed the assembled wisdom of Greenbrier shall im prove upon our hint. Vallandigham.—Schenck, the hero of Vienna, and pandererto the rascality of the Radical junta, has to confront Vallandig jtam in the Dayton Congressional District. WILL CONGRESS RE-ASSEMBLE? Since General Schofield’s assertion that Congress, by its own act, tied up his hands in the matter of arming the “ Southern mi litia,” we may look for a big carpet-bag ef fort to bring about a September session of Congress. Many Radical papers deprecate such a thing, as full of peril to the party; but the trooly loil and Butler wing may. be powerful enough to have their way in the. case. Warmouth made a character istic effort, bnt it proved abortive. His lies were prompt but the facts were clumsy. We believe an attempt will be made to get up riots in such a way as to make the South seem blamable. Upon such pretexts, they can call Congress to gether and organize their Brownlow myr midons. Let us wisely refrain from all acts of imprudence; let us anticipate all such sinister machinations, and, by timely cau tion, avoid even the suspicion of insubor dination. The Richmond Enquirer and Examiner, which is certainly no “ timid counselor ” or “ weak-kneed patriot,” gives emphatic ad vice on this point. “ If,” says onr Rich mond contemporary, “ a disturbance arise, let it be manifest that the Conservatives were the aggrieved party, and that the con sequepces, whatever they may be, properly attach to our enemies, and we will baffle this last and most favored resort of Radi calism. And to that end it is equally de sirable that, while denouncing with what ever severity cf language the deeds and de signs of oar enemies, our speakers and wri ters should do nothing towards inciting a breach of the peace and thereby inviting the many and irretrievable evils that must certainly ensue.” Carpet-Baggers.—From General But ler up to the New York Sun, amazing ef forts arc being made to consecrate the car pet-bag fraternity. No Northern papers have ventured quite so far in blasphemy as one Southern journal we wot of, which claimed the Saviour of mankind as the first, of the species; but hard and incessantly do they strive to extract the venom from the serpeut-thing. They say we hate immigra tion, when we would sacrifice one half our patrimony for immigration of the right sort. We do not want Congressional sharpers and Tkad Stevens pedlars. We hate Skowhegan when it thrusts its dirty paw iuto our treasury, claiming to do so by the voice of our people. Such interlo pers and agitators we abominate, and, what’s more to the purpose, we hope to get rid of them by November or March next. Further than this, the first men to kick them out will be Northern men, who have settled among us for honest purposes. We venture something handsome that, when they shall have returned home, their present defenders will kick them and their carpet-bags more lustily and vindictively than auybody else. MEMORABLB.-rrSoqthern men who take the stump for Grant and Colfax have Butler for an ally. How auil fragrant au associate he is may be judged by the following “ order,” which shall never •-fee forgotten or ipfgiVeff by true men offbe' South: Hbadquartrrs JJkfaiitment of Ojgr.r, 1 Nbw Orphans, May 15,1863. \ General Orders No. 38.

Geo. C. Strong, A. A. G. Secession.—Montgomery Blair was a trusted counselor of Mr. Lincoln ami a bitter foe of secession. The awful crimes against liberty committed by his former associates have opened his eyes Here is the way he spoke in Virginia, a few days since: “He had differed from them, (the people of Virginia) in believing that their rights were to be sought in the Union, but in look ing at the present posture of affairs, he was almost inclined to think he had been wrong and the people of Virginia had lieen right;” and again, “ the people of the North knew' that the people of the South were patriotic ; there had been cause for the resistance the South; if the people of the o rth liad not seen it before, they bcP». n to s ‘ ce it m ", and it was for the future, i„ its develop ments, to say which side was right.” lowa. lowa is densely Radical, we fear, but the Democracy have caught the enthu siasm of their neighbors, and, with the courage of the Paraguayan ohiof, enlisted the ladics-td push on the good cause. The Chicago Times says: “ A telegram from the Btate of lowa, re counting the enthusiasm and success of several Democratic demonstrations, says of one, that there were 500 ladies on horseback in the pro cession.” If thejladies have the matter in hand, lowa will present a creditable, if not a triumph ant, record in November. letter from Dade County. Editor of the Constitutionalist : Dear Sir : There has been quite a revo lution going on in the minds of the people of this county. Men who formerly took but little or no interest in political matters have, since the nomination ol Seymour and Blair, been very active in trying to circu late Democratic newspapers throughout the county. Where there was but one newspaper taken one month ago, there are at least twenty now-ail Grant will not receive fifty votes in this county. Men, women and children are tell of enthusiasm, and loojting forward eager ly for the day of election. TlWreloicfln the anticipation of new and more liberal measures through the standard-bearers of Democracy. The yield in corn will be greater this sea son than it has been for years. We have more land in cultivation than formerly and no lack of rain, from the silking season ud to date. Corn can be bought here, in gath ering time, at from 25 to 30 cents per bushel. Our wheat crop is somewhat lighter per acre than the crop of last year. But any deficiency will be more than made up by the greater breadth sown. The supply of hay is much greater than during any pre vious year. Yuseff. Bumner has written a letter renewing his adherence to the Peace Society. His love of peace was only a state of suspended animation during the war. C Correspondence of the Constitutionalist. Letter from Atlanta* Atlanta, August 34,1868. Another week ol weak legislation has passed, convincing the people more fully that the Georgia legislature, so-called, is unequal to the demands of the State in the present condition of affairs. Wording un der a constitution which was framed by men—with few exceptions—of feeble intel lect, less purity and no patriotism, many of the members of both Houses can appre ciate no truth, or principle of eivif govern ment not discern able in that unique in strument. Already members on the Rad ical side of the House announce that some things in that constitution were inserted for the sole purpose of catching votes. In asserting this, especially with reference to relief and the removal of the seat of govern ment, they simply confess to frauds which the Constitutionalist, and other faithful Democratic journals, charged upon them du ring the canvass. “ it’s an ill wind that blows no one good.” Let us be thankful that some of tjie less cautious of the Radi cal party have been pleased to l«t the cat out of the bag, thus scaring many of the mice of their party into the ranks of the Democracy. This confession was not need ed to move some of the old rats; for, long since, they discovered that, as there was no “ relief” aboard, the Radical ship was in a sinking condition, and, true to the first law of their nature, they sought re fuge ou the terra firina of the New York platform. They were shrewd, for it is planted on the Constitution, a foundation which “ j H PO jjj lock; All in sea beidde.” TEMPORARY CAPITOL BUILDING. The last acknowledgement of the duplici ty of individuals engaged in forming that nondescript instrument—the constitution —was made by the member from Lowndes (O’Neal) during an able speech, in the course of which he opposed the removal of the capital from Milledgeville to this city. The question before the House was the ac ceptance of the proposition of the City Council to complete the “ Opera House,” according to plans submitted, and place it in the hands of tiie Legislature for a term ot years, free of cost to the State. This was opposed by Mr. O’Neal, who went out of his way to speak upon the question of removal from Milledgeville. Mr. Sisson re minded Mr. O’Neai that the constitution, upon which the people had spoken, had named Atlanta as the seat of government, lienee his (O’Neal’s) remarks were not; ger nmin to the question under consideration. It was tlb> that wrung the confession from this creature of the constitution —and cir cumstances; ably did lie denounce the mon strous fraud of “ tacking” such provision in the constitution; wltheringly did he ex pose the injustice of the measure, and the gross corruption by which it, was foisted upon the people. Now, I have no idea that O’Neal was prompted to take this sound and correct viewy of the matter from any other than sinister motives. He has some interest, you may feel assure I, in prevent ing this provision of the constitution being complied with ; still this is no reason the friends of Milledgeville should not use him— “ Fit vessel; fittest imp of fraud, in whom ” they find a trump card to make tlieir point; indeed, I may say he will do for their “ right bower”—tlie biggest knave in the pack! It lias been suggested that O’Neal’s anxiety to go to Milleclgeville could be satisfied by the courts, and that la a certain institution in that place, he and Aaron Alpeoria, and your whilom, Postmaster, might meet and sing— -41 When shall thrue part EPHRAIM ! As your readers are aware, the proposition has been accepted and tlus Opera ITOffife building will be completed according to plans and specifications. It is due to Mr. O’Neal, however, to say that he might not have allowed himself to indulge in his exhi bition of honest indignation hftd j)Qt your exquisite “gentleman ofleisure, living on Ills income,” Mr. Tweedy—who was one ofthe Committee on Public Buildings—attempt ed to “ say' something on the subject,” and in doing so say that something wrong. Ephraim said “ it (tlie acceptance of rooms in this bqilding) would settle the con troversy of removal." Ho, you see, Ephrairp came nearly to **niggling” one of his pet measures. Ephraim should keep his seat, and play with his rattan—lie is decidedly more ornamental Ilian useful. 1 will drop one more line about Ephraim, and then drop him. Ephraim voted right on the proposition to exempt from taxation foreign capital invested in manufacturing goods from fibrous material; but, alas for the purity of his motive, Ephraim has an ox that may be gored; Ephraim was looking after his Gra/M/tevillc interest. It was a case of “ I, Ephraim,” again —proximvs sum egomd miki. V SCALAWAG MOTION. On the 20th .inst., O’Neal introduced a bill, which some of tin: Democrats say they will support as a measure calculated to weaken Radical representation in Legislature. The Dill was to re counties sending their pauper* . .event other county of the SU 1 '* - into any bill become a law, if Should this several of thes* is demonstrable that will novor b- - impecunious scalawags again /0 allowed 1,0 enter this county n- Os course, O’Neal savs he “ didn’t ..lean Unit.” THE AUGUSTA MUNICIPAL BILL. You have been fully advised of all action that has been had on this bill. Since its passage in the House, the friends of tlie bill, encouraged by the evidence daily ac cumulating that many of the Republican Senators seem more and more disposed to ignore party in questions of material pros perity, entertain strong hopes of its passage m the Senate, even with the clause exacting the registry fee. I think, however, that had this amendment been ottered anil accepted in tlie House, there would be no appre hensions relative to its fate in the Senate hn passant, I perceive yon give credit to the. InteUu/encer of this city for tlie bill which yon publish in your journal; it is a courtesy which your city contemporaries forget frequently. JUDICIARY APPOINTMENTS. With the exception of the Hon. Hiram Warner, the appointees to the responsible positions on the bench are very ordinary men. It is very evident that Judge Warner was not expected to accept the position of Associate Justice, for when he called oil the Executive for his commission it had not been made out, while numbers of circuit judges who had been appointed and con firmed subsequently, found t'teir parch ments signed, sealed and readv for delivery. As the confirmations are all made in secret session, your coirespondent and others are dependent upon the communicativeness of Senators for revelations of scenes in the Senate, when that body essays to make or mar a judge. I learn that great opposition was made to the confirmation of “ His Honor,” of your judicial district. The ear pet-baggers were essentially and peculiarly “ down on him;” so much so they thought there was not a ghost of a chance for his confirmation. Since their mistake has been made manifest, reasons are plenty as black berries why he was not rejected. There was no “ out-and-out ” Republican from that district working against Gib son s confirmation. The able jnrist and pure man whose appointment was so much desired by the learned gentlemen compos ing the bar of your city, had never deci dedly espoused the cause of the Radical party, although it was rumored he fouud the reconstruction acts as the only practi cal mode of restoration in the Union: ™r e , r ??? he on toe ground to hob-nob ana plead his own cause with the “ Hon SS a Vh from thi5 > orthat - or the other msti ict. Thus you perceive that, to use a xankeeism, as he would not, or could not “go the hull hog,” there was no for* him. On the oti r hand, Gibson had come out flat-footed foi the party—he had gone in can amore, evi ring no nausea—nay, he swallowed bis and te of black drop with a hearty smack o’ t| e lips.
