Wall Street at fl tonight. BY BAKU KL BARBZR. Like Mimfl deserted castle, thou art now Silent and gloomy : no directors hold Their stately court where needy sopp'iants bow With trembling hearts ; no brokers thirst for gold. Old Trinity looks down upon thy pave In seeming wonder. Where are the absentees Who late were borne on Fortune’s treacherous wave, Spreading their sails to catch the slightest breeze ? Flown, like a flock of pigeons to their roost ; Dreaming of Fortune’s overflowing cup— How storks can be diluted or reduced, but still like fleecy clouds kept moving op. 'Tis true, dame Fortune here will frown on some, Perchance on others sm'le in playful freak, And sometimes sends them all to kingdom come— Like wounded canvas-backs in Chesapeake, When one retires another takes his place ; One bubble burst another soon will rise ; Men fill the ranks all eager for the chase, Anxious to win and carry off the pr<zj. But let us pause and muse in serious though t ’1 be silent marble oiten teaches more Than orators or sages who have sought To mystify the world with classic lore. Upon each Parian slab there seems pngraved A record of the past in bold relief; Where Mammon’s thoughtless victim was en slaved And on this polished stone inscribes his brief. Jt tells of toilsome days and sleepless nights— Os fortunes in the distance, seeming near, Receding from the grasp while Hope invites Pursuit, until at last they disappear. It tells of treasures won and treasures lost, Os merchant princes basking in the beams Os summer sk es, until a killing frost Nips their fair hopes and disipates their dreams. Perhaps the stoics in their price will gay That Wall street life is time misspent ; and then Attempt to prove its business mere child’s play. I beg to differ from these gentlemen. Along the margin of th“se shifting sands There flows a deep and fertil'ziog stream; While capital and labor here shake hauds On equal terms with mutual esteem. Inclosed within these massive walls there rests The hope of millions; every clime and age Are represented in these granite chests, Their names recorded on the mystic page. lu this contracted space, this narrow point, The wealth of every land is freely poured: A screw loose here the world is out of joint Until the equilibrium is restored. Here character is cast in iron mould, And tempered to endure the rudest test; Grows brighter when exposed to heat and cold, Like gold, when purified by alchemist. Here thoughts intrusted to the glowing wire, With light,ninig speed fly over laud and saa ; Awake to life the world’s commercial lyre, And give its chords their vital energy. As when the crystal lake its pebbles lave, Responsive to each impress of the oar, Thus wii! a key touched here impel a wave That reaches to the earth’s remotest shore. Wall street! thou art the nation’s polar star, Whoso light is watched with more than eager ga/.e; Financial mariners discern after The bright reflection of tby gildel rays. Though thou art noiseless now, thy lamps burn low, And damp and chill the poet’s linted seat, To-morrow’s sun will sse thee overflow With busy life revolving through the street. EVfiOFKRKOB AI.UOT TO HORACE GREELEY. To Horace Greeley, Dsq., Editor of the New Turk Tribune : Bur—ln your valuable paper of the 22d ult., and in subsequent numbers, we are pained to see several articles written against the unfor tunate exiles tiom the United States. We think it a very unlair, ungenerous and unkind spirit The men of whom you have Hpoken so flippantly and ho lightly are many of thim of your iigo and deserve to say the leas*, a re speettni notice at your hands. We regret this the more, Mr. Greeley, because we have al ways believed you to be honest in your po litical views and above the miserable preju dices of the hour. That while differing in political opinions from your brethren of the Mouth, you had manliness enough to attribute to them equal sine rity of purpose. You up braid us and abuse us for quitting our native land and coming to Mexico, when you knew vevy well that there was full many a Federal prison “gaping to receive us.” When we left our country nil the Governors of the seceded States had either been arrested, or ordors to that effect hid been issued. It was also gen erally believed that every Confederate Gen eral and statesman would be arrested and turned over to the tender mercies of a court martial. We can safely say that if any guaran tee had boon held out that we would not have been disturbed, none ol us would have expa triated ourselves. You, sir, would have done just ns we did, uulees you had been desirous of wearing the martyr’s crown. You first abuse us for being rebels nud then denounce us for settling iu Mexico. Where else, in the name of Heaven, could we go ? We could not go North, nor East, nor West ; we were com pelled to come oouth as the only outlet for those who would seek refuge in a foreign land. Ween the Irish, Canadian, and Cuban patriots —when the Hungarian, Polish and Italian ex. ilea lied to your shoros, you, sir, have opened your heart, and with true Christian philan thropy you have extended to the n your warmest sympathy ; but when your own countrymen, stripped of all their earthly goods, are expatriated, and laboring with their own bauds for an humble living—for bread with which to keep life atioat--strange to say, you can fiud in your heart no sympa thy, no word of encouragement—but rather the cool sarcasm and the ribald jest. We hive been very kiudly received by the Earperor Maximilian and the Empress Carlota. The have permitted us, poor and penniless, to remain in this empire, aud to breathe the fresh, pure air of the lovely cli mate. They have exhibited to us the same generous sympathy which you and your gov ernment have ever shown to all exiles from fore go lands. For this we are deeply sensible, ami will ever feel grateful to their majesties. N'.ili, none of us have entered into the military service of the empire. To our personal know ledge, many have applied for service, but the Emperor has invariably declined. Out ot the large number ot confederates now in this em pire. none are heard to denounce their native land. There are uo juntas or secret gather ings to plot against the land of their birth \ou have never seen, and never will see in this paper the Mexican Times—an editorial denouncing the United States Government. Now. Mr. GreeUy. why can’t you let us alone? Sir, Christian charity, common decency, and tair play would say.” “let them aloue ; we are free of them : let them live aud die in peace/’ We have never injured you ; we don’t know you :we have uo desire even to form your ac quaintance ; but we beg you to let us alone. We know that you hate us. and that if you had the power you would not only persecute us to death ia this werld, but consign us to that lake In the next “which burueth with fire and brimstone forever.” The man who has once been a slave holder and a rebel can never enter “your heaven." In this very charitable judgment of yours, we believe that the Christian world will beg leave to respectfully differ, for in their opin ion George Washington and Stonewa.l Jackson stand to-day as wed justified in the sight of Alm ghty God as George the 111 or Abraham Lincoln. We believe that the soldiers of the federal and Confederate atrnies, who fell in battle or died of disease, will stand at the bar ot God and be judged alike, irrespective of therr political ton-ts. You, sir, Lave ar l“tJage alctted by the Psalmist, aud J’ h ° K-morai order of things, be soon gathered to your fathers. You will die rich roiling in wealth, while the unfortunate men whom you daily abuse will leave behind them scarcely enough to secure a decent burial \\ e say that the time will soon come when you shall die and be bmred. We will m-et f or each must appear before the Great Judge to answer for the sins committed on this earth. You will staud forth as the wealthy Mr Gree ley, with a copy of the late Tribune-the work of your long life—aud you will thauk God that you are not like the rebel slave-holder at whom vou w 1! point with scorn and con ’ tempt. We will appear with oar broken sword in our hand aud kneel for pardon at the mercy seat God will judge us both Now, Mr. Greeley, we must" part till that great day—that day of wrath—when we shall meet face to face. There was once in the classic land of the east, a prophetess" who foretold the downfall ofter native laud, but her countrymen refused to believe her omit too late—when her prophecy was accomplish ed . tihe said : ‘•The day shall come -that great, avenging day— When Troy's pioud glory in the dust shall lay; When Priam's power and Priam’s self shall fall, And one prodigious ruin swallow all.’’ The text is in Homer : yon can make your own commentary. We have seen the aged grandsire, not like BMisarius, begging in the streets, but working with his own hands for his daily bread; we have seen the noble, mid dle-aged soldier, who had laced death on a hundred battlt*fields, toiling from ••early morn to dewy eve,” to earn a tew dolla r s to send back to his young wife ar.d babes. We have seen men who had filled hi. h political stations and been an honor to their country submit without a murmur, to ail the discomforts of cruel poverty and exile We have seen the brave exile stretched upon his dying bed, and as his hour of dissolution appioached, we have witnessed his tears of affection, and heard his larewell words and messages sent to kindred and friends in tatherland. But for ail this you have no sympathy You will atiswer with a ribald sneer or a “fool-bom jest ” You may have bceu right in suppressing the revolution, hut no man or woman who has one particle cf Christian charity left in his or her bosom, will sustain you in persecuting the conqueied South, or pursuing with such vindictive hate the patriot exiles We have the honor to re. epectfuily, your most ob’t serv’t. Henry Wa t kins Allen. Georgia Baptist Convention This body met at Macon on Friday. We con' dense the proceedings of Friday and Saturday from the Telegraph. fibst day | At 1 1 o’clock in the morning the Introducto tory Sermon was preached by Rev. B. F. Tharp, ol Perry Ga., and was an able and eloquent dis course. The body assembled for buisness at 2 p. m., when Rev. P. H. Mell, D. D., was elected President, Rev. J. F. Dagg, Clerk, and Rev. D. Will. (Iwin, Assistant Clerk. The usual Committees on Religious Excer ciscs, Business, and Finance, were appointed, and visiting brethren from Virginia, Alabama, Tennessee, were recognized as correspondents. The body adjourned till 9 o’eioek Saturday morning—the hours of meeting being 9 and 3, and those of adjournment being 12£ and 5. 'Phis Convention is not ajudicatory body—it possesses no jurisdictiou, eclesiastical or oth wise, over the Baptists of Georgia. It is sim ply an educational and missionary body, formed for the purpose of combining and encouraging the efforts ol the Baptists of Georgia in those two great channels of usefulness. It unites with the Southern Badtist Convention, through which most of the Southern Baptists operate, in prog' e 'uting Domestis, Foreign, and Indian Mis sions, encouraging and organizing Sabbath, School literature, and in spreading thWord of God. It has under itscontrol Meacer Universi ty, of that state, at Penfield, and the Hearn School, at Cave Spring, Ga., the former before enjoying an endowment of about $200,000, and supervised by a Board of Trustees. Committees appointed by the President of the Convention, make special Reports to it on a variety of topics ; but these are consider ed merely advisory by the denomination, and though adopted, possess no binding lorce upon the different churches. The delegates gener ally are appointed aud cent by the different Baptist associations of the State, which have connected themselves with the Convention, which associations, themselves iormed by delegates sent by individual churches, are nothing but missionary bodies, on a smaller scale. Each association sends up an amount ot money, designated for some particular channel and the sum total is accordingly appropriated, as directed, by the Convention, Each State has its own Convention which sends its dele gates|and funds to the Southern Baptist Con veutiou, by which the money is expended through Boards appointed for the purpose that Convention now has three Boards—one of Foreign Missions—and a Sabbath School Board. It formerly had a Bible Board, which was discontinued duriug the war. The Georgia Baptist Convention generally has in attendance the masterminds, and most eloquent preachers of the denomination in our State. SECOND DAY. Macon, Ga., April 21st. 1860.

The Convention adopted the report of the Committee ou Mission. By permission, Rev. Jesse H Campbell an nounced to tUe Convention, his intention to publish at an early a day as practicable, a now edition of his “Lives of Georgia Baptist Min isters, and made a general request for infor mation that will enable him to enlarge and improve his work on the subject already pub lished. Rev. Sylvanus Landrum, rea 1 an interesting report on the condition of Mercer University. The report alluded, in touching lauguage, to tbo death ot Rev. Charles Dutton M »!la-y, lately deceased, one of the members of the Board of Trustees of the University. The re port of the Treasurer of the University, shows that tho endownment of Mercer University, amounts now to about #144 793 47, having suffered a diminution of about t 30,000. The reports referred to, produced an agreeable sur prise ou the part of the delegate", as no such good results seem to have been looked for.— The good management of these trust lunds, and tho preservation of them with so little im pairment during the finauciil derangements of the past five years, are mainly due, under Providence, to the skill aud ability of the Treasurer, T. J. Burney, of Madison, Ga. The next meeting of tho Convention was appointed at Columbus, Georgia AFTERNOON SESSION, 3 o'clock. The Convention re-assembled, prayer by Rev G. T. Wilburn. Ou motion of Rev. Jesse H. Campbell, a Committee of seven were appointed to revise the Constitution of tne Convention. The Committee appointed under this motion, are Messrs Campbell, Tharp, Given, Yasoa, Bur ney, D. G Daniell, and Tucker. Mr. T. J. Burney of Madison was unani mously elected Treasurer of the Convention tor the next ensuing three years. The Convention appointed Rev. J. H. Kil patrick to preach ihe next introductory sermon; D. W. Gwiun the alternate ; J. H Cutb. bert to preach ihe Eiuc .tional sermcn ; S. G. Hillyer, alternate. The following were elected Trustees of Mercer University : Thomas Stocks. D A. Yason, D. E.

Willet, J. R, Sanders. W. G Woodfia, P. B. Robinson Ihe Convention after prayer by Rev. E. W. Warren, adjourned till 9 o'clock Monday morning. We condense the report of *h-' 1 rst days’ pro ceedings of the body, from the Telegraph, as : follows : A Urge number of delegates were appointed to attend the Bapstist Biennial Convention. A committee was appointed to select a pro per person to prepare a memoir of Rev. C. D. Mallory, deceased. The committee on deceased Ministers re port eight Ministers connected with the Geor gia Baptists, who have died during the last two years, at follows . Reva. C. D. Mallory. Robert Gibson, Cobb, W. D. Cowdry, E. M. Gault, James M. Watt, A. C. Dayton, Jarvis G. Johnson. The constitution wa3 so amended as to con tinue in office, officers elected by the body un til their successors are elected. A resolution cordially commending the Christian Index to the favor of the denomina tion, was adopted. Mr bummer addressed the Convention in behalf of the Domestic Mission Board, and a handsome collection was taken up. Rev. H H. Tucker, from the Committee, eubmitte i a report on the subject of educa tion, which was adopted. Rev. E Dyer offered the following. Resolved, I hat the Georgia Baptist Con vention do most emphatically endorse the views of Brother H 11. Tucker, as expressed in the Christian Index and South-Western Baptist, in reference to the proposed Confer ence to be held between the Baptists and Campbellites, with a view to the union of the two denominations, as published in the Reli gions Herald, of Richmond, Virginia. Rtv. C. M. Irwin, moved that the resolution be laid on the table. The motion was lost by a vote of seventeen to eighteen. Rev. H. 11. Tucker offered the fol.owing as a substitute. Resolved, That the Convention is opposed to the policy, as proposed by tho Religious Herald, ot bolding Conventions with members of another denomination with a view to un ion. Considerable discussion arose ou these resolutions. Rev. J. F. Dagg moved to amend the sub stitute by striking out all after the word “Resolved” and insert the following : “That in the judgment of this Convention the differ ences between Baptists and Campbellites are snch as to render any attempt to effect a union between the two denominations unde sirable and pernicious.” Pending the consideration of the original resolution and substitute, the Convention adjourned tiii J o’clock. la the afternoon Rev D E Butler offered the following, which was unanimously adopted : Resolved, That it is exped'eut and proper for our representatives in the approaching session of the Southern Baptist Biennial Con vention to maintain that organization, with all its agencies. The nnffnished business of the morning was taken up. The resolution of Rev. J F Dagg, offered as a substitute to Dr. Tucker’s, was unanimously adopted. The report of the F'inance Committee was read and adopted, and ordered to be publish ed in the minuteß Rev. Mr. Moreland offered the following : Whereas many of our churches and church members regard the popular amusements of the day as innocent and indulge in them, and whereas, in our opinion they are exceedingly destructive to religious vitality and spiritality, therefore, Resolved, That the Georgia Baptist State Convention lend its icllueuce in behalf of Christianity hy expressing its entire disappro bation of dancing, playing cards even for amusement, visiting theatres or circuses, ani drinkiDg of spiritous liquors as a beverage. Rev. Jesse H. Campbell moved that the resolution bo postponed indefinitely. Much discussion arose on the subject—a part contending that the Convention as such had no jurisdiction over these subjects and the other part contending that the Convention had. The motion of M-. Campbell to postpone was lost. The resolution was then passed. The preamble was lost unanimously. The salary of the Treasurer of the Conven tion was fixed at S3OO. A vote of thanks was passed to the citizens of Macon for their hospitality, to the other churches of the city for their courtesy, and to the several Railroad Companies for their lib erality in passing the delegates over their roads at halt fare. * The salary of the Clerk of the Convention was fixed at $75. One thousand copies of the Minutes were ordered to be printed for general distribu tion. On motion of S. G. Hillyer, the Convention adjourned sine die, after prayer and singiDg of a hymn. A Good Deal Mixed. Under this head the Cincinnati Commercial has a humorous description of the status of the respective editors of the Times and Enquirer of that city. We copy : As politics makes strange bedfellows, so a great tiro may result, for a time, in queer com minglings. While the Enquirer people are constructing anew establishment, in place of the one burned, that paper is being printed at the Times office. The editorial corps occupy the same room. Wo can imagine the embar rassment that must result from such a mingling of political antipodes: Abolition editors on one side of the table, and„Democratic editors on the other, peppering away at each other with deadly lead (pencil,) and thrusting vicious stabs at each other with steel (pen,) to say nothing of the clash of resounding scissors, which play no unimportant part in the engage ment. Just think, nothing but a narrow table between such fiery belligerants. One side try ing to haul ten States into the Union by the collars of their gray jackets, and the other side endeavoring to keep them out by tugging at their abbreviated coat tails. Between them the States are having a tough time of it. Enquirer editor is horrified at finding himself writing in favor of the Civil Rights bill, and discovers that he has got on the wrong side of the table. Times editor, making a similar mistake, finds himself eu ogizing Andy Johnson. The “clippings’’ get mixed up ou their way to the compositors, and if it were not for great circumspection on the part of the respective loremen, each paper would copy and endorse the most pernicious doctrine. Suppose the pressman should print the En quirer on one side aud the Times on the other the mistake not being discovered until several packages had been sent off with the early mails. Who can picture the consternation which would seize the respective proprietors ? Boiling with rage, they rush to the press room together, and discharge the unfortunate press man with one voice. The indignation of the Enquirer folks is only equalled by tho shame of the Times people. Both assert .with equal bitterness that they were never so humiliated before/ It must be very confusing to visitors, this singular fellowship. A copperhead, from Holmes county, rushes in, grasps Times editor warmly by the baud, under the impression that he is editor of the Enquirer, assuring him that “Holmescounty can’t be drafted.’’ He don’t know the war is over. Malignant Radi cal mistakes Enquirer editor for Times editor, and, thinking to curry favor with him, chuck les over the destruction of the Enquirer estalr lishment. He is summarily kicked down stairs by the combined editors of the two papers. What a scene election night must present as the returns come in, each side of the table try ing to figure out a victory, and each side, of course, claiming it. A frantic struggle be tween the Times and the Enquirer man, as each tries to thrust his flag out of the same window—compromised at last by hanging them from different stories, which is quite ap propriate, from the fact that they tell different stories about the election. A brass band is played in front of the office. The serenade is claimed alike by the Times editor and the Eu uirer editor. They appear at different win dows and return their thanks, both speaking together, which confuses the band to such an extent that they march off in sever il direc tions, each man playing a different tune. It is a terrible mix, take it altogether. A 5-ham Exposed.—The s>habp Trick of an Impostor. —We published a few days since an exceedingly pathetic account of the death, by drowning at sea, off the coast of Cuba, of Colo nel C. B. Brent, late of the Confederate army. From information we have since received, we surmise that the individual whose gallanty was so highly extolled, was the author of his own touching orbituary. So late as the last week in March, Colonel Brent was at the Villa Vista plantation, Car roll parish, Lousiana, acting on the role of Lovelace, for which he was famous during the w ar. \\ hile attached to the command of Gen eral Morgan, he was very much devoted to an estimable young lady of Wytheville, Va. ; but in the midst of the courtship it was discovered that Brent had a wife and two children in Alexs andria, la. It was a long and determined pur pose with him to disenthral himself from the meshes of his original matrimonial estate, and doubtless the canard he has now set afloat is w ith the intention of deceiving his unfortunate V irginia wife, and the further object of entrap ping some unwary young lady. We are sorry to be obliged to destroy so fine a story as that of the death of Brent. Doubtless were it true, it would be best for himself, for his family, the susceptible of the female race, and the whole world. —Louisville Courier, 14th.J [ln reply to the following pleasant invoca tion for our “thoughts” cn disloyalty, we beg respectfully to assure our fair correspondents that we share, to the fullest extent, their weari ness of the tfceme ; but fear that anything we ran say on the subject will only be furinshing papulvm for the incorrigible fifteen, at Wash ington, who construe all utterances on the subject, from this latitude, into evidences of lurking treason:] Disloyal 1 [Respectfully inscribed to the Editors of the Chronicle & Sentinel .] “by a number of i.adies.” Wo wish your “thoughts,” our worthy friend. About this great “disloyal” row ; Oh 1 wil! it never have an end— This dire fanatical bow-wow ? Its din has sounded in our ears From week to week and dav to day, Through four long, weary, weary years— When will it cease, O 1 tell us, pray ? And tell us, also, if you can. What these “disloyal shriekers” mean, Who are daily trying 60me new plan To show how wicked we have been ? They sing of all disloyal things That e’er was seen, or heard, or known, And every morn and evening brings The same disloyal monotone. Disloyal are our States and towns ; Disloyal are our boys and men ; Disloyal smiles, disloyal frowns— When will it end, O! tell us when ? Our people read disloyal books, And sometimes sing disloyal songs ; Our ladies cast disloyal looks When •‘loyalty’' the side-walk throngs. We feel disloyal hopes and fears ; Disloyal joy, disloyal grief; But now prepare to shed yoar tears— We eat “disloyal” bread and beef ! But, as the preachers sometimes say, We leave the subject with you now ; And soon we hope to see the day Which winds up this disloyal row. Augusta, April 14th, 1860. Gen. Lee’s Atldre-s to the Army. Entertaining the opinion that many of our readers may have failed to obtain copies of Gen. Lee’B address to the army, issued after the surrender to Gen. Grant, at Appomatox C. H., ou Sunday, April 9th, 1865, aud believ ing that numbers of them would be glad to secure it for their scrap book, we reproduce it: Headquarters Army Northern Va , } April 10, 1865. \ General Orders, No. 9. After four years of arduous service, marked by unsurpassed courage and fortitude, the Army of Northern Virginia has been compelled to yield to overwhelming numbers and re sources. I need not tell the brave survivors of so many hard fought battles who have remained steadfast to the last, that I have consented to this result, from no distrust of them. But feel - ing that valor and devotion could accomplish nothing that could compensate tor the loss that would have attended the continuance of the contest, I determined to avoid the use less Bacrifiee ot those whose past services have endeared them to their countrymen. By the terms of the agreement, officers and men can return to their homes and remain until exchanged. You will take with you the satis faction that proceeds from the consciousness of duty faithfully performed, and I earnestly pray that a merciful God will extend to you his blessing and protection. With unceasing admiration of your constancy and devotion to your country and a grateful remembrance of your kind and generous con sideration for myself, I bid you an affection ate farewell. K, E.

Dreadful F high t. — The ruins of St. Finbar’s Cathedreal came very near being the scene of a serious calamity yesterday. While the work men (who are engaged in taking down the stee< pie) were at work, the policeman guarding the place thought he saw the wall opening and the steeple about to fall, and giving the alarm, im mediately rushed from the building and ran to the opposite side of the street, where he was fol lowed by three workmen employed beiow. There were six men on the steeple, and their sit uation, in consequence of this premature report, now became painful in the extreme. There w’as no chance of escape, and they gathered in a group, expecting momentarily to be precipitated to the ground, and crushed or badly hurt, and a German (who was among the number) was so badly frightened that the blood gushed from his moutn and nose. Fortunately for the party, the wall did not fall : and it turned out that the pos liceman was mistaken and, had no cause for his apprehensions.— Charleston Hews. Fatal Accident. — A day or two since Mr. H.

The Savannah Republican says that on Sun day afternoon last, while a boat with a crew belonging to a schooner lying in port, wa passing along the shore seme six or seven miles up the river, she was hailed by a gang of negroes and ordered to stop, but upon declining to do so, some half dozen shots were fired at the boat, none of which, fortunately, took es feet. It is charitable to suppose that the au thors of this outrage were intoxicated, and under this supposition the parties in the boat took no notice of the matter. The editor of the Thomasville Enterprise offers for sale, at 25 cents per copy, the new fee bill adopted by the doctors in Thomas county. He says everybody should have one in order to in advance what the doctor is going to charge him. A letter to the Telegraph from Baker coun ty, says there is considerable complaint among the planters of their cotton seed not coming up, and, after it has come up, iurning white and dying. Three-fourths of the seed are old— oise as old as four years. The sa me writer says that in his neighborhood last year there were one hundrtd and eighty six laborers em ployed on srven plantations, this year, upon the same places, forty-two. Those that are now employed, do not work like they did last year before their freedom. The Madison News says the planters in Mor gan county are becoming gieat'y excitedabout the decayed cotton seed. The supply of seed is very short and they failing to come up. The Northern farmers who have purchased farms in that county are Decoming disheartened— their hands have had small pox, some of them tyhoid fever, and now the prospect of a failure in the crop from rotten seed causes them to Kpprebend a disappointment. They speak also diecouragingiy of negro labor and see from practical experiment that it is unre liable. The Macon papers state, for the benefit of those interested, that a line of stages will com mence running regularly from Forsyth to Indian Springs, on or about May Ist. The Mclntosh House, kept by that clevor and accommoda ting gentleman, B W. Collier Erq., will be open for the reception of guests. We think allusion was made a few days ago in this paper to the arrest of two men named D. V. Gray and G. M. Barret, in Atlanta, un der direction of a telegraphic dispatch from this city. Mr. Barrett has published a card which explains his connection with Gray, and entirely exonerates him from any complicity in Gray’s default. Gray was making his way out of the country with funds belonging to Mr. Robt. F. Boatie, who relieves Hr. Gray from all blame. South Carolina. The Charleston and Savannah road has been completed forty-three miles, and trains are running fromjj Charleston and return every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. John S Riggs, Esq , President of the Charles ton City Railway Company, reports to Council that a sufficient amount of the capital has been paid in to enable the Company to proceed at once with the enterprise. The Editor of the Courier has recently met with several planters from the Islands and ad j icent country, who generally made favorable reports as to the prospects of the coming crop. In some instances he heard complaints of bad seed, and the necessity, in consequence of re planting. The Editor of the Carolinan says that on one place where he had eighty slaves, of whom some forty were workers, that of these he had some eight or tenjeft. He employs, perhaps, six of them. To a few he had given lands, and they work for themselves. The rest wandered off to the coast, to the city, and between pri vation, exposure, starvation and small pox, some twenty are dead. , The Barnwell Sentinel urges the comple tion of the Branch Railroad to that point. That paper says the road can be finished in a few weeks, and will not only contribute largely to the prosperity of our District, but, would ultimately prove a profitable branch of the South Carolina Rail Road. It is reported, that Colonel John Phillips, is to be the United States District Attorney for South Carolina. Daniel Horlbeck, Esq., will probably be commissioned as Clerk. The thirtieth Maasabhusetts Regiment is to occupy Union, Chester, and Spartinsburg Dis tricts. From Mew Or lean?. New Obleaxb, April 21.—Allen & Cos., of Calcutta, have arrived to open a direct trade line of six ships with New Orleans. The com pany is composed of Englishmen and Parisians, who say there is much demand for lumber, Western produce, bacon, hams, oil, grease’ &o , in the East Indies.

From the Knoxville Commercial, of the lGth we learn that the Knoxville a Kentucky rail read will be completed to the coal regions in twelve months. The enterprise under way has had the influence abroad to cause the pro jection of several iron foundaries, rolling mills, ii? , bringing to the city at least SIOO,OOO '! he Commercial is enthusiastic as to the future of Knoxville. Memphis is to have a free delivery of let ters and street letter boxes at once. Florida. The Florida railroad is again in operation from Ceder Keys to Kalahaw.

THE CHILDREN. BY CHARLES M. DICKINSON. When the lessons and tasks are all ended, And the school for the day is dismissed, The little ones gather around me To bid me “good night” and be kissed, Oh! the little white arms that encircle My neck in their tender embrace ; Oh! the smiles that are halos of heaven, Shedding sunshine of love on my face. And when they are gone, I sit dreaming Os my childhood—too lovely to last— Os joy that my heart will remember While it wakes to the pulse of the past; Ere the world and its wickedness made me A partner of Sorrow and Sin, When the glory of God was about me, And the glory of gladness within. I ask not a life for the dear ones All radiant, as others have done ; But that life may have just enough shadow To temper the glare of the sun; I would pray God to guard them from evil, But my prayer would bound back to myself; Ah! a seraph may pray for a sinner, But a sinner must pray for himself. I shall leave the old house in the autumn, To traverse its threshold no more ; Oh! how I shall sigh for the dear ones That meet me each morn at the door; I shall miss the "Good nights,” and the kisses, And the gush of their innocent glee; The group on the green, and the flowers That are brought every morning for me. I shall miss them at morn and at even— Their song in the school and the street; I shall miss the low hum of their voices, And the tramp of their delicate feet. When the lessons of Life are all ended, And Death says : “The school is dismissed ! May the little ones gather around me, To bid me good night and be kissed. Suidc Book for Immigrants. D. 11. Jacques Esq.,is engaged in preparing a work, descriptive of the Southern States, in eluding their climate, soil, productions, public improvements &c., intended to encourage and facilitate immigration from the IN orth and from Europe, into these States, and to serve as a guide book for travellers. Such a work is much needed, and will be very instrumental iredeveloping the industrial interests of the South. He solicits answers to the subjoined questions, and any other information designed to promote the object embraced in the work : 1 What is the general cbaracterof the coun try in your neighborhood. 2.

All answers should be numbered to corres pond with the questions, which need not be repeatel. ADy person furnishing a considera ble amount of valuable and available infor mation will be entitled to a copy of the book. Letters replying to these inquiries may be addressed to D. H. Jacques Esq., at 389 Broad way, N. Y. We suggest that those who favor immigration will greatly promote the move, ment by a careful response to the above in quiries. Inflax of Negroes. From the number of negroes, who poured into Augusta immediately after the surrender, nearly a year ago, we bad arrived at the con clusion that the low lands and upland, the cane-breakes, swamps and numberless other places had been completely delivered from their orderriferous presence. But not so, The cry is still they come. The high ways and hedges are throoged with them— all wending their way to the Mecca of Free dom—the headquarters of the Georgia Equal Rights Association. They come, some of them seeking employ ment, Our people, anxious for laborers, eager ly hire the new comers, knowing full well the utter uselessness cf a majority of those brought up in the city, or who have been here long enough t > make the acquaintance, and have indoctrinated into them the evil teachings of certain poison-tongued, lazy miscreants. The advise of ‘‘Sisters” has a very demoraliz ing t-flcct upon country negroes, who are silly enough to believe that their hypocritical canting and suicidal counsel are the offspring of real kindness of heart. Weak minded crea tures that they are, the day will soon come, when they will aek to be delivered from all sue t. But concerning the influx, measures should be adopted that will stop this continued migration to our cities and towns. There is enough of freedmen in our midst already, and four times more than there is any demand for. Tnose coming are without work—hence the robberies which of late, have become so com mon. Let them be made to show up their hands, or to leave the city. The iaw provides for that. General Cass. —The editor of the Lacrosse (Wisconsin) Democrat, who is now in Detroit, writes as follows:—“General Cass is still alive, though his family have gathered here in daily expectation of bis decease. The General is now in his eighty-fourth year. He passes most of his time in sleep, undisturbed. At rare in tervals he wakens up sufficiently to ask for some ofhis old friends, who are sent for, but on arriving, even within the hour, he is generally asleep again. His disease is softening cf the brain, from years of mental labor in the service of his country. He has all the care, attention and nursing it is possible to give. His family look upon him with the greatest reverence and affection. and pray that his last day on earth may be far distant. At times he is able to converse quite freely and rationally with his family, but this is the exception, not the rule.” The Catholic Religion in China.— The London Builder gives us a bit of curious news from the orient. A Roman Catholic Cathedral is being built in China 300 feet long by 150 wide, with a spire that will make it the most conspicuous object in the imperial city. It is cot generally known that the Catholic mis sions, commenced in China about three hun dred years ago, have made constant progress ia spite of frequent and cruel persecutions, in which there have been hundreds of martyrs. There are now not far from 3,000,000 of Roman Catholics in China. There is a Chinese Catholic Church, with a Chinese priest, in San Francisco, Cal. The Columbia Daii.x Carolinian.—We have received the first issue cf this paper. It pre sents an attractive appearance, and is under the editorial management of Mr. F. G. De- Fontaine, proprietor, assisted by Colonel j. A. Sperry, formerly of Knoxville, Tennessee, and the gifted Henry Timrod. We tender them our kindest wishes for their success. kRVID JliftY PRESFNriSEYTS. RICHMOND COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT Aran. Term, 1866—Sec jxd wkk ; Our predecessors, the Graud Jury of the first I week, in their report of the various matters i brought to their attention, have left but few subjects, and those of comparatively minor ! importance, to which we beg leave to call the attention of tho Court. The large number of indictments on which we have been called to act, this being the se cond week of the term, evidences a frightful prevalence of crime in our city and county. We are well aware that hitherto the remedy for this state of affairs has not been within the province of this Court, But now that the juris diction of these cases has once more, at least in a measure, been placed in the hands of the civil authorities, where it properly belongs, we trust the Attorney Geueral and his assis tants in prosecution, will use, if possible, more than his accustomed diligence to secure con viction; aud that upon conviction such punish ment may be meted out to the criminal as will vindicate the power of the law, and serve as a warning to evil doers. The large and hereto fore comparatively inesponsible class ot our community which furnishes the great majority of criminals, must be taught that offences against the law can and will be punished ; and the sooner and more effectually this is done, the better for the peace and goad order of the community. We cordially endose tho recommendation of the Grand Jury of the first week in relatiou to the subject of education. It is unnecessary to enlarge upon the importance ot this matter. Intelligent men everywhere admit its claims Ws trust that as soon as the fiuaucial condition of the county will admit, an adequate fund will be appropriated to this object: VVe also con cur in regard to the preservation and security of the records and papers in the Clerks Office. So much has been said in re gard to the large number of vagrants infesting the city and vicinity, and the subject has been so often urged upon the attention of the Court, that it has become an “oft told taie ” Still, we must again present this mat ter to the consideration of the Court, and urge some practical t ffort to give effect to the pro visions of the law on this point. We call up on our fellow citizens to report, for the action of the Court, any cases of vagrancy which mav come under their knowledge. In regard to the limited number of our citi zens who are called upon to act as Jurors, we will only say that in a voting population of near eighteen hundred, (1800) allowing four hundred of these to he firemen, it would not seem necessary that the same set of men should be rtquired to serve at two conservative terms of Court. The regular habits aud places of business of a comparatively small portion of our population aro so well knowu, that an un fair advantage seems to bo taken of this knowledge. The Road from the Augusta Factory Canal Bridge, running parallel to the Georgia Rail road, near the residence of Dr. Dearing, needs attention Also tho Road aud Bridges near Girardey’s residence, on the Road near the Race Track. Also, the main county Road on the Sand Hills, near Cumming’s corner. In returning thanks to his Honor, J udge Reese, for his uniform courtesy aud consul ation, we beg leave to express our apprecia tion of the manner and style of his charges and explanaiions to the Jury—being conveyed in the good old English tongue, which we can all understand ; not made unintelligible with phrases calculated only for the Display of learning. To the Attorney Genera', John P. C. Whitehead, Esq , we are also indebted for attention and advice. Wm. D Davidson, Foreman. Thos. R. Rhodes D. II Vanßuren, James L. Mima. Frederick H.

Stovall, Charles P. McCallie,'! Henrv D. Bell. The above general presentments after being made in open Court., and it being the desire of the Grand Jury that said presentments be pub lished in the city papers. On motion of John P. C. Whitehead, Jr., Solicitor General, it is ordered that they be published in the city pa lters. Mr Fillmore —The Express says in a Wash ngton dispatch : “An American gentleman, now in Europe, informs his correspondent in this city, that Mr. Fillmore has recently written to President John son in the strongest terms of commendation of his policy. —We must think this unfortunate for the Pres ident. Mr. Fillmore is a gentleman whom we personally respect; yet it is nevertheless true that his heart was with the Rebels though out our great struggle. We do not know ten other Copperheads in our State so hostile to the “coercion” which was attempted by the Govern ment, so kindly toward that essayed by the Reb els, as that same Millard Fillmore.— Trikune. Brussels intelligence states ihat B’smarks will attempt to make over the Middle States to Prussia entirely. Austria recalls all soldiers on furlough. Several minor German States aie resolved to observe neutrality. The Nicholson pavement is being rapidly laid in the streets of Nashville. There never was so much crime in Vermont as now, and officers say that four fifths of it is to be attributed to liquor. One county has fif teen criminals who will be sent to State I’iison.
