All know it la ran di easier to pull down a «tru dure than to build one. yet while it took these die fleeted leaders four years (o pull down the edlii ;e which Governor Johnson is now so industri >usly lehnilding, they complain that it is not roared again an once.

Emancipation in Bkazil—The last nevs from Brasil possess es a good deal of interest. The question of imancipuii.m—once or twice before discussed in that cou.uluy-hns again oorne up, find thin time appearances are that the subject will receive favorable attention irom the Brazilian Legislature. Tim in -vern *at for the abolitiou of slavery in thr-.t section has been inaugurated by two prominent H outers who offer :v series of artioles, 111 < renin previs ions ol which are that vn. ruitfluves t-hall no longer bes >ltl to new masters, but shall bo free if not claimed in throe ninths.; that slaves sh ill no longer pass by inheritance; that in ten years all slaves over twenty-live years old shall bo five ; that in tiiteeu jfars slavery shall cease to exist in 1> aail, and that provision shall ho made in every parish for ibe aged and infirm. It is estimated that there aro about three million slaves in Brazil, The institution ex ists in every part of the Empire, and the vast majority of the laborers are slaves. They coo stitute about one third of the entire population ot the country, Tho movement of gradual •mancipation it is said ori.; mated with the slave owners themselves. The Emperor favors the project, and the white residents generally look upon the scheme as feasible, and consider the oountry ripe for the proposed change in their labor system. Foreigners residing in the Em pire are prohibited from.u<.qniriug ov owning slaves ; these of this cla? owning slaves shall be obliged to dispose ot tin nr villain two years, under paiu of having them declared roe. The •lave trade, which way formerly rurried ca to •one extent, entirely ceased long since, and there is no probability of its renewal. This measure was effected by (he }1 rs ; ii..n authori ties solely, without uid or ii.ilnenco from ahy foreign government. In tliis Brmriliau movement is to be traced j the influence of cur uf#n recent example in ihe •bolition of'‘ibe institution.'’ It v, :il be an interesting spectacle to watch tho re all of the I bringing forward of the proposed laws in their ! Legislature, and ii they are adopted, the •working ot the system of gradual emancipa tion, which is tho guiding principle of those laws. KwiTrewT.— The E -atueky election has pro bakly reunited in the choice of five Uni n and four Democratic or Conservative members of Congress. The State Senate, it is supposed, will oontain a majority ol D 'mocm'io, and the House of Union members. Tee real is ;e was upon the slavery question, parties having di Tided without much reference to ancient: ISda lions on the issue of emancipation. Abhor <.h the anti slavery rasn have not gained a victo ry, they have approximated ro nearly to it. •nd made such an impressive, dvmsnstration •f strength against old pro slavery laws and •entiments, that it now looks as if the aboli tion of slavery ia Kentucky was merely a mat ter of time. Appointment.- The President has appx.fited Samuel A. Pancoast as Direct Tax Commis sioner of the District of Georgia. AUGUSTA, GA., WEDNESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 30, 1865. i White Labor in Tfxvs.—la conversation with an intelligentT< xan some time since, in re-, gard to the productive capacity of Lis State as far as cotton alone was concerned, he said that i he thought five million bales could he easily raised in it yearly, if all its rich soil was put under cultivation. Some may think this an | over estimate. We do not. I'bus never been pretended that a while i man could not work in Texas as a laborer, ii ;he would. Little colonies of German emi i grants, scattered through every county, have ; aiready engaged with success iu the cultiva \ tion of cotton, without hired or purchased ne ! gro help. In on instance we are told a Ger man family (V tea have raised aonualiy, by their own labor, a laiger crop than the forced production of forty bunds oa an adjoining plantation. Whatever may In the conditions of other sections of tbo South, it is evident that Tex *s is bound to bs a great and wealthy State. Within its borders can bo raised all the products of #vury clime. Its soil is rich. Its forests abound in valuable timber. Its moun tains contain hidden stores of mineral wealth. Its immense plains will tuftiish for ail time abubdant grazing for cattle sufficient; to sup ply the markets of this great counlry It has sec*port enough for its commercial pur poses- In short it has within itself a!i tho undeveloped elements of wealth and pr;,-»periiy. Texas to-day off ;rs to the enter prising emigrant, chances lor a fortune more promising than the go’d fi ids of a Colorado. Thk Contention.—As yet there seems to be but lil'le interest taken by the pc-opreof this Htate in the coming Convention la many ecciions, not even candidates have been named. No body of more importance ever yet assem bled in Georgia. The-prosperity and welfare of this commonwealth depends upon its acion. No select party should control its deliberations. It should be composed entirely ot men who look to the interest of Georgia, without reference to any class whatever. Oar future condition will be much affected, cither (or better or for worse, by the course pmsoed and the policy adopted by the Coming Convention. Ike members of that body must make up their minds to unequivocally support hereafter, and to bind the people of Georgia to support lire constitution of tho United States In all its parts, and tb#laws passed by Congress in accordance therewith. The exigUfig laws cf our country aro of that character jind any rep resentation made to the contrary is made by demagogues who desire to deceive and mislead tho people, Richmond county has an abundance of able men. Care should be taken to select from the number, delegates who will do honorto them selves, to tho section from whence they are sent, and to the State. There can be no excuse for having the county represented in the Con vention by any but men of character. Men who will eweive DeitLer to the right or to tho loft. Men oi judgment and discretion, who will spurn all plans which do pot tend to the best interest of the entire State. Matters in South Cauouna.— From all the accounts we see in tho Northern papers of al fiiirs in South Carolina, wiitten by correspon dents who have trayeled through the States, and who seem to bo well posted, it seems as if there was trouble brewing. The coming Convention, it is said, will bo m ide up of men who were oiiginally opposed to the Union, and some of whom yet entertain hostile views to the government. The letter writers say til it measures have baeu taken “to exclude from that body, soon to moot, the Union men of ihe Slate.” One paper iu speaking, of the matter says ; The old Union men--those wLo claim to have loved their whole country, who never locked upon tho national banner aa “a symbol of op pression and tyranny,” who have known ‘‘no . East, no West, no North, no South,” who have refused by any and every method to lift up iheir arms against their brethren —are to be excluded Irorn the councils of tho State and na tion. V/a sincerely hope there will be do trouble in South Carolina. Bat as the datlc angry cloud portends the coining storm, so does tbo threatening aspect of the political heavens in some of the Southern Slates forebode much evil. Slay good counsels yet prevail and dispel the deepening gloom which now over shadows the hopes of every true patriot.’ Nominees r.n the Convention. —We notice that certain parties in Burke comity nominate the annexed gentleman for the Con vention fr m that soctiou—J. V. Jones, W. D. Wimberly, Quintillian Screen. We have not the pleasure of ail acquain tance with either of the partita referred to We are not well posted in regaid.to ih -ir polit ical antecedents. We wish seme cue well informed would furnish us with them. If the original Union men of Burke county are satisfied with the ticket, all right. We have nothing to svy. If they are not, then let them nominate a ticket of men whose principles they know to be correct, and put it before thu people upon a straight Union plat form. Nme but original Union men should bo voted for for the Convention by Uaion men. They should be run upon Union platforms. hen the Washington authories and the rulers plaeed over us in this State cau see what tho public feelings is and govern their acts there by. Patting the interests and welfare of tld3 great commonwealth into the hands of men who were originally anti-Union, will not answer. It will be suicidal so to do. Now is the time for the Union men of Georgia to be ion their guard. To be up and doing. Thick; of Gold Diking) the War Refer ence to a tabular statement of the highest and lowest prices for gold at the North during the war we learn the following: In ISC2, the highest rates for gold was 160, in December o- year ; the lowest, 101, in March and April. In 1863, gold sold as high 1725, in February ; as low as 129| in August. In 18G4, It reached -8- in July the highest point it has ever at t lined, end sold at 151 in January. In 1865, the year began with 231$ ; lowest rate, 128$! It now fluctuates between 140 and 145, accord log a* the “bulls” or “beans’" have tway in Wall street. Legislative Nominations in Ohio —The j Chattanooga Gazette in remarking upon the ' nominations of the Union party in Ohio speak thus : I he Union party of the Senatorial district of Ohio, compo ed ot the counti-* of Fall field, ii j' kirg and utir-rs, have nominated Brevet BiigaJier General Grosvenor, as a candidate lor Senator Gen. Grnv»enor is well known throughout the army of iha Cumberland, as a naUnn' and able soldier, and us possessing a practical knowledge of political affairs, to rqn der.him a fitting representative of the peo ple in the Legislature of the State. G*-n. Grosvenor is at present the Provost Marshal General of Georgia. He has been but a short lime in our piidst. He has how ever, during that period wop for him self a host of friends. —BB.I. From Abbeville A gentleman writing from Abb f viile, S. 0., siates that every thing in that section is looking cheerful. New goods are constantly arriving from the North. Gotten has commenced moving, and money is becom ing quite plentiful. Death or tile Attounex General or Ala bama.—Col M.

Among the products of Russian national industry which excite cunsid erable interest, furs, plate, and suudry articles of gold and silver are given prominence to in the Russian papers. Cosily porcelain and vases of jasper, agate, and other (chiefly Si be lian) minerals are also enumerated as so many triumphs of tne national art.
