moK'ial importance of Augusta has a “Board of
Trade.” Why not have one here? All plates

Concealed Weapons.—Wodnesdey night a
I military guard was stationed in various sec
* tlons «f our city, and the negroes passing
were arrested and there arms taken from
them. Oq jßotno were found pistols and
bowie knives, others hud slung shots, small
clubs and brass knuckles. Where «n tbo se
weapons caino from, it *s difficult to determine
—but one thing Is certain, the negroes had
the weapons, «,
Now there is no earthly use for our colored
population to carry weapons. A majority of
loose i..«cu- e ..nunil tho streets might, bet
ter by far be at homo. And if they woum
keep at homo, they would not be disturbed or
molested,
A L mr. Advice to Frki dmen —We have
heard that the freedmen are complaining be
cause their weapons are forcibly taken from
them by tho military. Now we have a few
words for them on tliia subject. There is just
two positions from which to view this matter
If you free I men conduct yourselves properly.
2ou will huvo no occasion to use weapons. If
on the other band you do not intend to behave
yourselves, you ought not to be allowed to
have wearoas. You talk about being attacked
on the street at night. Stay at home then,
and you will not be molested. There is no
necessity for yous wandering around after
dark. Freedom does not consist in your
mating disturbances ; or iu breaking laws ; or
iu carrying concealed weapops ; or in doing
any thing that will not be tolerated by society.
A Evil which Should be Abated.—There is
one great aol growing evil in our midst which
shoul 1 beat, once stopped. We refer to the
discharging of firearms in our streots Scarce
ly has shades of evenmg settled upon us,
Iro the still hours “ate made hideous” by tho
frequent report of firearms in all sections
Noises of this kind are decidedly disagreeable
to hear. Besides, those who are compelled to
be out after dark, do not care to b« continual
ly reminded in this manner of the dangers
whioh beset heir pathway.
If tho weapons are and scharged for amuse
ment, she pleasure seekers should be made to
pay so handsomely for their entertainment,
that they will take other methods of killing
time. If discharged for a purpose, stringent
police regulations should be so enforced that
the necessity for such proceedings should be
removed.
No matter in which light you view the
thing,- the firing of pistols and guns iu our
streets is a great and unbearable nuisance
Omsk.—ln the olden time, to so eminent a
degree bad oaperstition obtained in the mind
of the people, that the appearance of aime sa
ble bird on the road was sufficient, in itself, to
b’ast the hopes of a happy groom ; and mar
tiie beautiful picture of a lovely bride’s minds
by causing the former and his friends to turn
back. 1 hose were days of omens. For prog
nostics, evil and good, the people looked, as
we do for the tun. Thanks to the spread of
Chiistainify aud the arts, we are not quite
what those were ; nevertheless some signs hold
g'V'd. even with us.

And That Multiply.—So frequently are we
called on to notice the chief disgrace of three
times, robbery, that we fear our people may
grow careless and Indifferent. In fact, some
may think these leports, the child of none hut
a Local’s brain. That ia as they elect As
a watchman on the rower, we tha'l continue
tocry aloud the hour aad its evils, and not
eay, ‘all v well 1” as did the watchman, in
the streets of Paris, when the mob insulted ’i.e
King, and trampled drdcr under its cloven
foot.
A few nights ago, a house, a short distance
from this city, in which iived three ladies, was
Attacked by a negro man, wh > tint ersayed to
break the door down, but this effort proving
futile, he turned to the window, and stove it
in with an axe, barely missing the head of a
young lady who was standing near it.
The ladies, by their screams and shrieks,
succeeded in bringing to their assistance two
gentlemen from a neighboring farm. They
started unarmed; and, when half way, turned
to get their weapons, during which tim the
negro, being advised of the movement, aban
doned his project, and ha.- tened away.
Now, we don ; t like a continual repetition,
but wa would respectfully urge upon our p o
pie in the country, in every county, to hold
public meetings, and erganizj, at one-, a
patrol corps.
Pray tell us, why will you go about bewail
ing the “horrid state of affairs,” and, yet,
never take a single step towards changing the
situation ?
We are assurrrd that all cops raised for the
purposes above tndica'.eu **m ne arm< and im

longer. ‘‘Providence helps those who Le'.p
themselves.”
Support tub Mechanics —An exchange 'e
marks very sensibly, we think, that there is o
truth more undeniable than that it is toe
bounden duty of every community to sup; rt
its mechanics Indeed, it may bo said, wi tr
out any exaggeration, that the frequent rou Ts
of the carpenters hammer, tho clink of ihe
blacksmith’s anvil is an infallible sign o a
city's prosperity. Th« ru',e3 of political ec. :i
--omy are well applied, when it is declared t it
it cannot be otherwise ; for the producers ire
actively employed, and out number the c n
sumers.
Neglect your mechanic by supporting th so
of other place?, and what is the r ?esult W y,
simply this : They often become idle ;nJ
profligate; in a few years become beggars,
and their children grow up in ignorance.
Merchants must support mechanics, if (boy
would have around them substantial cus
tomers.
Now, in this our favored city wo h ive a
number of mechanics, in every way competin'
to conceive and carry out manufacturing
schemes, and they could exhibit themselves
were it not for tho habit, which is prevalon
with us, of importing large quantities of clieaj
foreign articles. This is a wrong aud short
sighted policy. Lot us suppo rt and encourage
each other, so that the waste p!aces may be
built up, and prosperity smile from every
house in the land.
Tub New Commander of Department of
Georgia —From the Savannah papeis we
learn that Maj. Gen. Brannan is to assume
temporary command of the Department of
Georgia. When this officer took command of
the District of Altamaha, we predicted from
wLat we knew of his antecedents that, he
would not only give satisfaction to the resi
dents thereof, u u f; vvould also discharge the
duties of his offl Tai xoifitj on ably and efficient

oration
The Savannah Republican in noticing the
General’s departure, remarks thus ;
The efficient manner in which Gen. Biaunan
has invariably discharged the delicate and t! lfi
cult duties devolving upon him while com
manding the Military District of Savannah,
have proved him to oe an officer of rare ad
ministrative abilities, while his unassuming
and courteous bearing towards all, have won
him the esteem of our citizens.
The General will bear with him to hie new
sphere of duty, the good wishes ot all classes,
and of a larue circle of devoted perse nil
triends We bespeak for the General a cor tial
reception at the hands of onr neighbors., who
will fiuil him to be all that, wo represent.
Let Order be Maintained. —The numerous
robberies and murders reported as being al
most daily committed in every city iu the
State, admonish us that there are large num
bers of lawless and desperate men, evidently
both white and black, who devote their t ine
to-plunder, and who do not hesitate a moment
to sacrifiee life in pwsnit thereof.
During the holidays every comm aify ir. he
State should be prepared at once to Che k \ ;o
lence of any description should it slow ibel*,
and to maintain law and order Up n i
auihorit'OE, great responsibility will dev ulv. h
maintaining the latter Weave satisfied that
iu this city, this will be effectually done Tbit
it will be so throughout ail Georgia, we tbit, k it
highly probable. The bad white and the
vicious black men, must be made to know aad
feel that they will be severely dealt with if
they make the slightest attempt to dist al ’he
public peace ; and that where violence is at
tempted, the result will be fearful with them.
Gen. Brannan’s Folic*.—Although Gee, a
R-aunan bes not been iu our city lu" a ew
days, the po'icy pursued has won for him he
highest resuect and regard cf our ciUr. is.
The prompt measures be has takeu to pres-, ve
tho public peace, have received the univc sal
approval oi the people. Tho disarming of he
negroes, was a measure necessary for the ) ib
lie welfare —necessary for the' public p od
And the ffiioient manner In which it wrs and ne.
shows that the General understands well on
to carry out a warlike idea when conceive' .
The fieedmen have now learned that t ere

gerous for them to trifle with, and which ill
easily put down aijy impioper spirit or tm. ce

Brisk Business.—lt is gi atilying to m-rice
the show of activity that has beta seen oa our
streets for a number cf days past. We under
stand that our retailers are disposing of !.u>e
quantifies of goods. Our wholesale meichau s
also appear to bo prosperous. We hope tbs
state of affairs will continue.
There is one thing all buyers msy rely u::-
on brill retail as well as wholesale. No mar
ket ia the South has more goods, a greater
variety, and belter quality than Augusta
And in no Southern market can goods be pur
chased cheaper. Here then, is the place tor
buyers to come aud select their stocks.

Message from ihg President
To (he Senate o? the Untied Slate? :
la tepiy to the lesuiuiions adopted by the
Senate oa the 12th, I have the honor to state
that the war waxed by a portion of the people
against the properly constituted authorities ot
■he Government ot the United States has been
suppressed ; th-.t the Uuittd States are in pos
session of every State in ► hich the insurrection
existed, and tL-a f , as far as could be, the Courts
of the U. S have been restored, post offices re
ee'.abiished, rod steps taken to put into effect
ive ( peration the revenue laws cf the country.
As the result ot measnr. S instituted by the ex
eentive, with a view of indue ng a resumption
of the functions of the States, comprehend, and
in tho inquiry of the Senate, the pebple in
North Carolina, South paroliaa, Georgia, Ala
h'-rca,'Mississippi. Louisiana, Arkansas, and
Tennessee, have reorganized their respective
State Governments, and are yielding obedience
to the laws aud Government of the United
Spates with more willingness aad greater
promp itude than, under the circumstances,
could reasonably have been anticipated.
The propose i amendment to the Constitu
tion, proviJing for the abolition of slavery
forever within the limi sos the country, has
been ra'ified by each one of theso States, with
the exception of Mississippi, from which no
official information has been received, and in
ir Early all of tb. m creatures have been adopted
or are now ponding, to confer upon the freed
men the privileges which are essential.to their
comfort, protection and security. In Florida
and Texas are ra king commendable
progress in restoring their State Governments,
and no and. übt entertained that' they will at an
early period be in a position to rtsume all of
t ; >tir political relations with the Federal Gov
ernment •
The aspect of affiirs is more promising than,
in view of ail the circumstances, could have
been expected. The people throughout the
entire South eviccs a laudable de*i-« to r,uo»
their aIISgKD'CBTU hid tnmrumaat, and to ro
pair the devastatiens of war by a prompt and
cheerful return to peaceful pursuits. An abid
ing faith is entertained that their actions will
conform to their professions, and that, in ac
kaowledgiog the supremacy of the Constitu
tion aud laws of the United States, their loyal
ty will be unreservedly given to the Govern
ment whose leniency they could not fail to ap
preciate, and whose fostering care will soon
restore them to a condition of prosperity.
It is true that in some of the States the de
moral-zing tff-.cts of the war are to be seen in
occasional disorde ly conduct, but three are
local iu character, cot frtqueut iu occurrence,
and are rapidly disappearing as the authority
o? the oivil power is extended and sustained.
Perplexing questions were naturally to be ex
pseted from the great and sudden change iu
tlio relations between ths two races, but sys
terns are gradually developing themselves un
der which the freedmen will receive the p.o
tection to which he is justly entitled and by
means of his color make himself a useful ana
independent man of the community in which
he has his home. From ail the information
in my possession and from that which I have
recently received from the most reliable au
thority, lam induced to cherish the belief
Hurt personal animosity is surely and rapidly
merging itself into a spirit of nationality, and
that representation, connected with a properly
adjusted system ot taxation, will result in a
harmonious restoration ot the relations of the
States to the National Union.
The repo it of 0»rl Shuig is herewith trans
mitted, as requested by the Senate, No re
port from the Hon. John Covode has been re

GEN . GRANT S RIPORT.
Heaequakters Army U S. I
December 18, 1865. [
To His Excellency, Andrew Johnson, Riesl
dent of the United States :
Sir : — ln reply to your note of the 16th inst.,
requesting a report from me giving such in
formation as I may be possessed ofcoming with
in the scope of the inquires made by the Senate
ot the United States in their resolutions of the
12th inst., I have the honor to submit the fol
lowing, with your apurov il and also that of
the Honorable the Secretary ot War :
for tiio‘p'Ctf)si4 i e‘fA o MOfi.Afee 27th of last month
thougbout some of the Southern States lately
in rebellion, and k tO see what changes were
necessary in the disposition of the military
forces of the country ; how these forces could
be reduced, expenses curtailed, etc., and to
learn, as lar as possible, the leelings and in
tentions of the citizens of these States toward
the General Government. Tho Slate of Vir
giuia being so accessible to Washington City
and information from this quarter therefore
being readily obtained, I hastened through the
State witiu ut converting or meeting with its
cinzens. Raleigh, North Carolina, I spent one
day, iu Charleston, Souih Carolina, two days,
and in Savannah and Augusta, Georgia, each
one dray. B )ih in h aving and whilst stopping
1 saw much and conversed freely with the
citizens ot these Slates, as we l as with" effi ers
of the army who have ffieen stationed among
them
ihe following are the conclusions c ime to
by mo : I t.m satisfied that the ma.-s of Ihmk
tug men of the South accept the present situa
tion of affairs iu good laith ihe questions
which h-ive hitherto divided the sentiments o!
the people ot rile two sections, are slavery and
State rights, or the r ght ot a State to secede
Irom the Union. This they regard as having
been settled forever by the highest tribunal
that man can resort to.
I was pleased to learn from Ihe leading men
whom i met that they not ouly accepted the
decision airived ot as final, but, now the smoke
of battle has cleared away, and time has been
givm for tfflecuon, that this decision has been
a fortunate one lor the whole country, they
receiving a like benefit from it with those who
opposed them in the field p.nd in the council
hour years oi war, during which law was exe
cuted ou y at tne point of the bayonet
throughout the States m rebellion, have le t
the people, possibly, in a condition not to
yreitl that ready obedience ;to civil authority
the American people have generally been in
the habit of yielding This would render the
i re-t-nce of small garrisons throughout those
Slates Dt-cessdry, until such time as labor
iusus toils prep r channel, and civil authority
is tuily estabbehed ’the whites and the black
mutually require the protection of the g»nesal
Government There is such universal acquits
cence ia the authority of the General Govern
ment throughout tha portious of the country
visited by me, that the merest presence of a
mi itfry farce, without regard to number, is
sufficient to m aintain order.
The good of the country requires that the
force be kept in the interior where there are
many fieedmen, or elsewhere in the Southern
States. Those at torts, upon the s*-a coast,
where no force is necessary, should all be
white troops. The reasons for this are ob
vious, without mentioning macy of them.—
ihe pr s nee of black troops, lately slaves
demoiaiz-es labor, both by I heir advice and
turcri.-hing in iheircsmpsa resort for the freed
men for long distances around. White troops
generally excite eo opposition, and, therefore,
a small number of them can maintain order in
a given distr.ee.
Colored troops must be kept in bodies snffi
cieut to defend themselves. It is not the
thiiikieg uun who wcuid do violence toward
any l iass ot troops sent among them by the
; General Government, but the ignorant in'some
places might, an I the late 6mves, too, who
might be imbued wiih the idea that the
property of his late master should by right be
long to him—at least, should have no protec
tion from the coloied soldiers. There is lau
ger of collisions being brought on by such
cuXL- s. My observations led me to the con
•c;usica that the citizens of tbe Southern Sta.es
are anx'ous to return to self-government with
in the Union as soon as possible ; that whilst
reconstructing, they want and require proiec
tion from the government, that they think is
required by the government, and is not
humiiiatiDg to them as citizms, and ihas if
such a course was pointed out they would pur
sue it in good faith"
It Uto be regretted that there cannot be a
greater commingling at thie time between the
citizens of the two sections, and particularly
tko?e who are interested upon the law m kiug
poia's Ido not give the operations of the
Freedmen’s Bureau that attention I would
have done if more time had been at my dis
p ■■sal Conversations, however, with officers
connected with, tho Bureau, led me to' tirrk
that iu some of the States its affiirs have not
been conducted with good judgment cud
economy, and the belief evidently spreads
among the freedmen of Southern States
:hat the lands of their'former owners' will, at
Vast ia part, be divided among them, has come
from the avent of this Bureau. This belief is
seriously interfering with the willingness of the
to make contracts for the coming
year. In some so m, the Freedmen's Bureau is
an abao'ute necessity until civil law is estab
lished and er forced securing to the freedmen
their rights and full protection at present.
However, i* is independent of the military es
tablishment of the country, and seems to be
co-operated with by the different agents of the
B ir. an acc Tiding to their individual notions.
Everywhere General Howard, the able head
o' rite bureau, made friends by the just and fair
instructions and advice he gave ; but the c -m
plaint in H uth Carolina was that when-he
left things went on as before. Mtny, perhaps
the majority of the agents of the freedmen’s
Bureau advise the freedmen that by their
own industry they must expect „to live and,
to this end they endeavor to secure employ
ment for them, and to see that both contract
ting parties c- rnpty with their engagements
In eo«n - cases, lam sorry to say, the freed
men’s mind does rot seem to bs disabused ot
the ido i that the freedman has the right to
live without care or provision for the future.
The effect of the belief in the divisi nos lands
is id eness and accumulation in camps, towns
and cities In such cases I think it will be
found vice and disease will tend to the exter
urination or great destruction of tho colored
race. It cannot be expected.that the opinions
held by men at the South for years, can be
changed iu a clay, aud therefore the freed
m<jn r. quire for a few year not only laws to
protect thtflti, tbo o-tro C-f tliOde
who will give them good counsel, and upon
whom they cau rely.
The Free 1 men’s Bureau being separated
from the m litary establishment of the coun
try. requires all the expenses of a separate or
ganization. Oriedces not know what the other
,Is; and mg, or what orders they are acting under
It seems to me this could be cot reeled by regar
ding every Officer on duty with troops in the
Southern States as agents of the? Freedmen’s
Bureau, and the n have ad orders for tho head
ot the Bureau sent through the best command
ers. This would create a responsibility that
w u’d insure a uniformity of action through
out the South and wou.'d insure the orders and
instructions from the head of the Bureau being
carried out, and would relieve from duty and
pay a I irge number of employees of the gov
ernment.

your obedient servant,

Coal Oil Where hou'.M) Ncwe.p.»per wri
ters constantly speak of petroleum, or coal oil,
‘•so called,” as if it were actually expressed
from coai itself and found underlying it. We
know not whether this oil is ever obtained
from under < oal - having paid comparatively
little attention to the subject—but we do knew
that the most valuable oil wells in Virginia, or
rattier West Virginia, are located on Burning
Spring run, in Wirt county, aud that, in boring
the hu idveds of wells which lino the Bides of
that little stream, no coal was ever discov
ered. 'lhe large deposits of coal in tho
neighboring regi ons may bo tho source of the
supply for aught that we know ; but if so, some
of the most distinguished geo'ogis*s in that re
gion are very much at fault.' Piofes or Den
ton. the State geologist of Ohio, has given it
as his opinion that it is coral oil. Other per
sons t ink tint it it is n natural oil, and that
there is no more reason to suppose it to have
been expressed rom coal or coral than there is
for believing that tho salt water which is
often pumped up with it comes from solid salt
The wells on Burning Spring run are witojn a
few yardß of each other, and yet they vary in
depth from one hundred and fifty to three hun
dred feet, or more, proving that there is no
common barin from* which the supply is ob
ta i ed, but that it 53 “stiuck,’’ like in veins :
*nd proving moreover, that, on ihe theory tl at

difficult to account for its presence iu these
veins. At, ary rate, “there is no new thing
under the eun.” Job S’>ys, “Oh that I were as
