CONSTITUTIONALIST. ATJGHTSTA. <3-A. WEDNESDAY MORNING. MAR. 10, ’«9 THE HEW ADMINISTRATION. We have already »lven copious extracts from our Northern exchanges concerning the new Administration. We now select a few Opinions from our brethren of the South. The Richmond Enquirer and Ex aminer takes this view: “ President Grant vlll not desert. his party, and it is not to be desired by the South that he should do so. He can only control the public sentiment of the North by respecting his party affiliations; and be can, if be has the disposi tion, do more for the Southern people inside of the Republican party than outside of it. Os course we would smash the Republican party to atoms ii we had the power; but they have our head iu their mouth, and we think some one acquainted with the animal can get us away from him better than a stranger,, who would merely infuriate him. The Northern people are to be led back to reason and moderation by a firm, but friendly hand; and they will have to be humoced more or less in order to avoid a fresh frenzy." The Dispatch, as if coincidentally Inter preting the Enquirer's words, sfiys: “We are decidedly better off than we were under Mr. Johnson’s administration, during which the departments fought over us with weapons whose blows fell entirely upon us un til we were well nigh dead. Let ns be both cheerful and hopeful, and get ready for the new era.” Col. Forsyth, in the Mobile Register, perceives much encouragement in the future because of inevitable broils in the Radical camp. He says: “ Every act of the past four days has been significant of coming war. Genera! Grant has disappointed the Radical leaders; he has made a war upon their party traditions for which bis verbal concession to the bondholders is but a sorry amende; and he has declared bis in tention of managiug the Government himself with only the aid of inexperienced and untried men. In pluiu language, he has undertaken to bore a very large hele with a very small auger; and, unless he succeeds beyond all precedent, he will have to try another bitt before long. That new agent will perforce be the balance of power in Congress. The dissatisfied Radicals and disaffected Republicans will probably split on the first serious question of party policy. Then neither can carry or defeat a measure, without the aid of that balance— seventy-one Democrats to day with additions to corns. “ This may be speculation only ; but, by the light of recent events, it looks very much like fact. In any event, the Democracy can wait, it has nothing to lose, and, so far as tbe new administration indicates, it has much to gaiD. Therefore, it can afford to be a looker-on yet a little longer, and await developments that must speedily come. “ Some ten days since we called upon the party to hope and to be strong; to throw out their pickets and to lock shields more firmly than ever. At this hour—which is possibly the darkest oue before day—they have greater need than ever to keep their watch-fires light ed ou every hill, and to pass from camp to camp the cheering words of union closer still.” We are convinced that Congress will make short work with the Democratic referred to in tbe above extract, if the occasion demand It. Still, tbe tone of the Southern press is very cheerful, ana aiu men seem persuaded that the future has nothiog in store for ps equal to the diabol lism of the past. In any event, the dispof sltion at the South is universal to give the new President all the sympathy he could ask for, under the circumstances, without an abatement of that self-respect which still constitutes' us a worthy people. AMERIOANB Iff , BRAZIL. We ever opposed with all the strength that was in us the mad project of expatria tion which seized upon a number of our more sensitive pepple, Immediately after the war. A personal experience of Brazil made us the more hostile to that country as a re fuge for heart-stricken Southern patriots, and we discouraged every effort made to raise colonies to go to the* realm of Dom Pedro. The wisdom at our course has been from time to time manifested in the saddest manner, since all, or nearly all, who sought the tropics have miserably failed in their projected schemes. A correspondent at Rio Jaueiro thus writes to the Provi dence Press : “It has been a severe task tor the consul at St. Catharine, the past two years, to provide means for the destitute Americans to tret out of the country. Traveling by steamer is too expensive for that class of persons, and to travel overland is almost impossible, as there is uo such thins: as a road anywhere along the coast of Brazil, and it is with difficulty that n person can travel on horseback, on account of obstruc tions. The feeling toward Americans is no 1 good. Americana sdon get disgusted with the country, and are ouly too glad to get back to the United States.” If there be any way to assist, In some sub stantial manner, those of our high-spirited but unfortunate fellow countrymen who languish afar, we shall be most happy to further it., Meu who preferred exile to the loss of liberty may have been Quixotic, but there is so little sentiment left in this dis mal materialistic epoch that a few of their kind can be easily welcomed and should be kindly cherished. . OONGBESSIONAL ELECTION, We urge upon the Legislature the neces sity of pushing the matter of Congressional elections in this State. Although an early adjournment is most desirable, we trust there will be no adjournment prior to the settlement of this business. Georgia has some rights worth struggling for, and the right of representation is among the great est. At present, we are not lawfully repre sented and the General Assembly should provide a remedy for this want. If an adjournment should take place, leaving this matter undetermined, or in the hands of the “ Governor,” the people will hold their public servants to strict accountabil ity for such dereliction of duty. Meekness Personjfiei*. — The gentle Anna Dickinson, who favors amalgama tion, but has not yet married a negro, re cently delivered a lecture at Chicago, and rasped the editors of that delectable city without stint. The Tribune man thus tlm idly responds: “ Miss Dickinson's speech, at Library Hall, almost convinces us that some women, at least, are ‘ combatants,’ aud, if endowed with suffrage, would possess the requisite martial ardor and power to enforce the laws they might enact. If all females wera like the • gentle An na,’ there would be no doubt as to the sub mission of the males to their common and un common laws, edicts and orders. A man would rather face a cannon loaded to the muz zle than encounter such a tongue as hers.” Awkward.— Our new President opened his Executive career with a first-class sen sation and a decided legal blander. Pour years hence, these little technicalities will not trouble him mueh. The Georgia Railroad —We had occa sion, lately, to travel over the entire length of the Georgia Railroad, and can testify that it is in a condition unsurpassed, if equalled, by any Southern route. During the super intendence of Mr. 8 K. Johnson, the busi ness of the road has increased and its stock appreciated. For sftc months past, nothing in the way of an accident has disturbed the even tenor of its course. tions at the Inauguration Ball was the can can, to l>e danced by Horace Greei.ey and Miss Susan B. Anthony. Os course, it did not take place, but the wag who started the report made a good hit. Joshua Hilt.. —The sage of Madison pro cured an interview with Grant on the morning of the 4th, but we fail to find his name among the Cabinet appointments. A Nice Amendment.— Though the XVth amendment will enfranchise all the mature blacks, it still keeps outlawed hundreds of thousands of white men. The Situation in Cuba. PROGRESS OF THE INSURRECTION. Letters from Havana, through channels not controlled by the Government, give us a more comprehensive idea of the progress and strength of the insurrectionary movement than the tele graph can, aud so we quote as follows: [From Havana (Feb. 205 Oar. N. Y. Tribune. More troops have come. To-dny takes place a review of the troops in the city—said to num ber, with the addition of the fresh troops from Spain, 10,000 or 12,000 men. The (Julians are beaten on parade, for certain. I leur a little for those bodies of insurgents who demonstrate without centre or base against the well armed soldiers of Spain. Yesterday, the official paper boasted the Government could rely upon 70,000 men ill veterans, volunteers, and trained mili tia ; but nobody believes it l>y much. It it he at all true, then it is an admission that the Spaniards have put more troops into the field than thev take pride in telling, after having said that 6,000 or 7,000 men would stilfe the in surrection. The Cubans hive their side to show • Cohre, Caney, Holguin, Glbara, Puerto Principe Villa Clara, Maniearagua, Sagney, Sagua Sanctus-Spiritu, Trinidad, the Cuzco Hills neighborhoods or headquarters of disaf fection, each ot whioh the Spaniards must visit pretty thoronghlv before being able to say that the rebellion is at an end. Though without precise data I venture upon the following esti mate of the rebel forces: Under Cespedes, Aguillera, Marmol 8,000 About Holguim 3,000 Quesada’s army • h.ooo Villa Clara insurgents AOOO Rebels at Manicargua 1.500 Rebels at Jaguey - f”00 Pronounced near TriDidad and Sanctus.. 1,000 Small demonstrations elsewhere 1,000 Total 25,000 Fourteen thousand meu may be nearer the nmber under Cespedes and Marmol and about Holguin. The figures given arc based upon intelligent opinions, not my own, and in elude some statements of the Spanish press, but they do not pretend to accuracy. The revolutionists couut sdj day upon 100,000 men or more if they can flud arras for them. As the Spanish press has estimated the available strength of the Government side nt 70,000, it may be presumptuous to venture an independ ent calculation. But if only to Rhow over what an extent the loyal army is distributed, the following rough guess is hazarded : In the capital aud f0rt5............ 10,000 Pinar del Rio district., ~: 800 Cienfuegos .'— ~..r 2,000 Operating against Maniearagua 1,000 Near Jaguey, under Gov. Colon 700 Count Valmaseda’s army 5,000 About Holguin and Gibara 1,500 in Puerto Principe 3,000 Iu Villa Clara 600 Cardenas, Matanzaa, Sagua 5,000 Remedies, Batabano, dfee 700 Santiaga de Cuba 3,000 Nuevitas Btoall garrisons at various points 3,000 New traeps expected da11y.............. 6,000 Total v .... 44,300 On both the belligerent sides ilhaveno doubt the figures given are rather in excess, and it is likely to he most on the Spanfeh side. The military moral to be deduced 'from all ibis showing is that Spain bns too many places to garrison, by reaseuof which the rebellion Is all the stronger. Tim rsOTW pretd lire and may win their battle without gaining many, victories. The news from the Eastern district, is that Cespedes aud Aguillera had seated them selvas upon some haciendas between Nuevitas and Gibars, with the iuteulion of opening at no distant duv intimate communication with the forces of Queauda. The quarter of Santiago de Cuba is said to be fully proteeted by tbe Spanish troops at present, nearly all the tehels having gone away. Holguin wm represented as being still held by the loyalists, but surrounded by rebels. Vnlmaseda lias re-entered Manztnilla, having sent hut a portiou of his troops (o ' Santiago de Cuba. The loyalist are complain ing that a score of houses and plantations have been burned in and about Holguin, and the rebels are accused of barbarities which, I sus pect, may be' committed on botli sides, but mostly on the side of the despotic, and perhaps, too, by very great odds. Remember Trinidad, Sanctus-Spiritu, Sagua, Cienfuegos, and other places were all suffering in population aud property the consequence of the inaurreoliou ; and so with other towns not directly in the re bellion. In Sanctus-Spiritu, Trinidad, Villa Clara, Cienfuegos, and three or four other towns, martial law reigns, and planters round about are especially overawed. The T.nguey rebels, said to number 1,500, are reported by the Spaniards as in a state of dispersion, bnt this is meagrely believed. They re«t on the Corojo mountain and tlm Cieuaga wilderness east of Cienfuegos. The war, as has been seen in the East, has taken at times a gqerHtero character, and undoubtedly Count Valmaseda has suffered more than his share of its harassment* aud de vastations. Nothing can be predicted from the. preseut situation except a considerable task on both sides, and a vast expense to Cuba and Spain. The rebellion has grown stronger; so, too, has the Government, and both sides look determined. The Diano states, with an air of assnrance, that the Western rebellion will be over in fifteen days, and if it remains as it is, certainly it will. The Cubans never had more reason for hope and energy limn now. Railway Statistics. SOME INTERESTING PACTS AND PrGORKS. The following interesting statistics of our railroads arc given in the recent annual report of tbe American Iron and Steel Association, showing the extent of our railways, the con sumption, manufacture and importation of rails, etc.: Miles Total number of railroads (including second track, sidings, etc.) in use December 31,1868.. 52,500 Total increase' for ten vears, ending December 31, 1868 16,530 Total increase for last five years.,.. s . 9,448 Average annual increase for the last ten years 1,654 Average number of miles in use for ten years, ending December 31,1868 43,123 Tons.

A velocipede has run over and killed an old woman in Glasgow. It was not a bicycle, how ever, but a clumsy aflalr, carrying lour men Georgia Items. The Macon Telegraph says the late cold weather has killed the peaces in that section. The Bain bridge Argus calls forthe establish ment of a saw mill in or near that place. It says it has been impossible to buy a hundred feet of lumber in Baiobridge for a mouth past. \ Capt. A. O. V. Rose, of Atlanta, sold three “ White Chester ” {tigs to Col. Anderson, of Fort Valley, tor the snug sum of S2OO. They are genuine White Chester breed, six months old, and weigh 250 pounds each. Pr. John L. Finlayson, Clerk of the Jackson county Circuit Conrt, was shot from behind a tree, by an unknown assassin, last Friday, and killed instant) v. Maj. J. W. Purmen, who was walking with Dr. Finlayson at the time, was also badly woqnded, and lies in a critical con dition. The Georgia White Oak Lumber Company, organized a year ago, now have in operation, on the Ocmulgee river, a floating steam facto ry, turning out 1,500 finished pipe staves per day. Mr. Chester Guild, a native of Boston, Mas sachusetts, died very suddenly, at the Pavilion Hotel, Savannah, on Sunday afternoon, with paralysis of the heart. The deceased was up ward of 80 years of age, and was a member of a commercial house in Boston. Christian Death of Patrick Hbnry.—My father, mother, uncle and aunt Daudridge gave me an account of his last illness and death, which I think worthy of preservation : Dr. George Cabell, of Lynchburg, attended him. His disease was intus susceptis; and as a last resort a dose of liquid mercury was pre scribed. He asked the doctor what would be its effect? He replied lhat it would give him instantaneous relief or he could live but a very short time after taking it. He swallowed the medicine, which produced no beneficial effect. He then calmly felt his pulse and examined his hands, and finding that his end was approach iug, he turned to Dr. Cabeil, who was a skep tic, and said : “ Doctor, I have often endeavor ed to convince you that the Christian religion is true. I will now give you my last argument by showing yon how a Christian can dio.” He then prayed in a low tone of voice, bnt audibly and distinctly, an earnest prayer, committing himself and family to the care ot the God of our salvation, which ro affected Dr. Cabell that he burst into tears a ud ran out of the room. He then endeavored!® comfort his wife, who was weeping bitterly ; and among other things which he said, he begged her to bo consoled by the many proofs they both had experienced of the great mercy of God, and ho concluded his words of consolation by thanking his Heaven ly Father for permitting him t > die withont suffering any severe pain of body or mind. Iu a few moments after this expression of his gratitude for dying grace, he seemed to sink into a quiet sleep, and without a struggle his mighty spirit passed away. Edw. Fontaine. f Southern Churchman. Mit. Hog in the Cars.—Under this descrip tive heading, the Evening Post does justice to some of the railroad experience of all travelers. Wonder if any of our young readers have ever seen Mr. Hog. Be careful you don’t imitate him : We desire to suggest to persons of an Inven tive turn of mind that some improvement to passenger cars is highly desirable. If there was a way possible of arranging the seats so that two persons could not be accommodated —or disaccommodated — od each bench, a great convenience would he gained and igany weak mortals would be saved from the temptation to hoggishness. Go into a car nowadays ten minutes before the train moves and you will find all the seats next the side of tbe car occupied, and tbe long range of inside seats vacant. Jones comes in with his bride a little too late, and has to put her next to a st ranger, who scowls at her if she looks a little faded, and odiously ogles her if she is pretty ; while Jones, full of disgust, must sit apart, and is lucky if he gets a place within eight of the “ beloved object.” In a train on the New Jersey Railroad, a few days ago, a gentleman got in with his wife, a sickly looking lady, and a little babe. The car was nearly full—only two teats were half va cant. In each sat a pet son, que of the Hog family, who looked np as the lady paused, then turned quickly again to his paper, raised that higher up and feigned unconsciousness. The lady stood up as well os she could, the gentle man walked from end to end of the car, look ing for a seat in vain. At last, in desperation, he nudged Mr. Hop-, who looked up, saw what he could not. help seeing then, the poor, wearied woman, with her babe, and with a scowl picked up bis 6hawl and moved into the next vacant Reat, removing therefrom the* appurfenanpes of ffis brother oj cousin Hogtg' to whom he grunted his distress at being convenienced. a BußlKD,Ai.iVß._LleYernl years since a henn fful young lady, liAkdly eighteen veays of age, ho resins ut tba vicinity of Alleghany, he-’v vme suaaenTyTWWy and although her parents, who idolized her, summoned the most skillful physipian?, the disease increased in virulence for some flays, and, apparently, terminated fa tally. lier death was a heavy Wow to her mother, who loved her fondly, and, after waiting the usual time prescribed by custom, the body was interred in one of the cemeteries adjoining our sister («Uy. A few days ago the lady’s father died, when she expressed a desire to have the body interred with the remains of her daughter. • The request was so natural that no objections were made to it. The grave of the departed fair one was opened, and upon the body being exhumed it was discovered, with horror, that the body bad turned in the coffin. An investi gation proved too conclusively that the poor young lady had been buried alive. Her clothes about the body had been torn iuto shreds, and her hair pulled from her head by haudsful. She had undoubtedly recovered ConsgUpspees while entombed, and afterward died of suffocation. The mother, yyiien view ing the corpse, was seized with hysterics, and a few days since was conveyed to the Dixmeut Insane Asylum, a raving maniac. f Pittsburg P public.

St. Petersburg yielded her the enormous sum ol 51,000 roubles, be side a large number of costly presents, Paganini gave violin lessons and charged 2,000 francs tor each. Hummel, the famous pianist, left for bis heirs 375,000 Lanes in cash, and a very large number ot costly presents, which he had re ceived at the different courts of Europe.— Among these presents were twenty-six diamond rings of tbe highest value, thiity-fonr golden sunff-boxes, and one hundred and forty-two splendid watches. Marino and Alboni, when at Uje hpigbt ot fbeii: fame, never sang for less than two tbOfiPAn'l francs, and Tamberlilc re ceived twenty-five hundred francs.

Canine Payments.— A correspondent of the Newnan Herald retaliates upon the Legislative proposition to tax dogs by the suggestion “that eseh member ot said Legislature take two dogs at fifty dpllarß each, for the service rendered tbe State.

Entangled initsfogsai.the seeds of coughs, colds, and of thatsl tenaatioq of frigidity and fire, more widely known thu admired, called fever and ague. The only way to avoic these "little unpleasantnesses," is to render the system strong enough to fight off the atmospheric poison the produces them, and the beet way to endow it with thi repellent power is to tone it with TIO3 TETTER'S STO MACH BITTERS. If a wayfarer were credibly informed that a ruffluf was waiting at the next corner, he wouid doubtless turd in his tracks, and take a safer rouieto his destination. With last about the same amount of trouble, the attack* of diseases prevalent at this season may bo evaded.-* Nay, the trouble will be less, for drug stores lie in every one’s route, and every respectable druggist in the Union keeps on hand HOSTETTBR’S BITTERS The article is a staple of trade, and it would he as easy to find a gro cery without sugar as the store of an apftbeeary with out this popular toulg remedy. In view of the gxpcrienpo of the nation with regard to the article, during the space of twenty yiars, it seems al-' most unnecessary to recapitulate Its fiorits to Ameri cans. But a* our population is increadng at the rate of’’ a couple of millions a year, ip the naiural way and by immigration, it may fie as well to hintto the rising gen eration and new arrivals (the old settkrs know all about it), that HOSTHTTER’B STOMACH BITTERS is tbe most wholesome and potent vegetabA tonic ever manu factured ; that it is a specific for deklity, dyspepsia, bil liousness and miasmatic fevers; ihat it prevents, as well as cures, these complaints ancT.helr complications; that it is not" bgd to talta,” and to absolutely harmless. _jnh«-dacttJ Mr BUOHUc—The best and Cheapest Buchn nprf before the public iiDsOMSOOLB * Co.’s, at One Dollar.

PEABODY, Esq., I HAVE, the past season, used of Guano in the culture of my Prolific Corn, and" to test their fertilizing qualities fully, adopted the following plan : In January I broke up the ground ; In February I broke it up again; the last of March I sub-soiled it, the* checked It off with a scooter plow, four feet by five. The land is thin, sandy, piny woods land. In this check I deposited the Guano, and covered it with eajth ; over it I dropped the Seed Cq.n, and’ covered Ighrhily. On the first acre I u-ed the Pacific Guano, -trtaseeond the genuine Peruvian, and the tjf’lrd Reese’s Manipulated, at the rate of about one hundred and eighty pounds to the acre of each kind. The yield on all three of these acres is superb, and it is hard to tell, -witliont actual measurement, which is the greatest. JMby intelligent gentlemen have pronounced the acre manured with your Pacific Guano to be tbo best of the three, and I am inclined to this opinion. Tt wilt make at least one hundred bushels of shelled corn to the acre. For sale by mhlO-10 BRANCH. SCOTT & 00. Pacific Guano Company's Soluble PACIFIC GUANO. Capital, One Million Dollars. r-p JL.

Time, Money and Labor Saved. THE AUTOMATIC CLOrHES WASHER AND BOILER. HiS most useful invention has been introduced into this city by the undersigned, who guarantees the performance of all that is claimed for it. Tho cost is comparatively trfatng— BIX DOLLARS —when is considered the amount-of time, motley and labor saved by its use. This Boiier operates upon purely philosophical prin ciple. It is self-acting, and dispenses eniirelv with labor and the wear of clothes. The hot suds and steatp, by the action of fire, are driven up through tuhrg, poured upon the clothes, and forced through the fabric with astonishing tepid ity, clenising it perfectly without any rubbing. It has been thoroughly tested, and pronounced unequaled as a Clothes Washer by those who have ured it. All fabrics, from the finest laces to the bed blanket, can he washed perfectly and with ease, without the aid of the lubbing-board. For Flannels it is Invalua ble, as the rubb-ng, rolling and pressing process p>»«t necessarily full them mq.e or less. It Is truly a labor and clothes saving invention.— Washing will no longer be a hardship, and washing day no lo.iger a terror an<t a dread to housewives. The invention can be used in any boiler, an-1 th low pi ice of ’ha arista places it within the teach of every family. The saving in the wear o' clothes will very soon pay for the outlay. It is estimated that 200 to 300 gallons of bollc-d suds pass throuvh'the clothes In thirty minutes; this being the tangent time required for c earring a boiler lull of clothes.
