Heard. W. >l., was the recipient last
nitht, of a magnificent present from the
members of Social Lodge No. 1, consisting
of an aprou, collar, and jewels.
I Pol. Oaib. Snead made the present in
Isjialt wl the Lodge, accompanied by
happy and appropriate remarks, which
wejre responded to briefly by the estsemed
recipient, Mr. S. I>. Heard, W. M.
jflie collar is made of blue-watered silk,

liiE Wheat Chop—New Flour.—
i torn all sections of the State cotne the
most cheering accounts of an unprecedent
edly large wheat crop. In Cherokee aloue
we see it stated that the yield is a'most
sufficient to supply the wants of the whole
State. The accounts Irorn all part.- of
the country indicate a bountiful har
vest. 1 nder these circumstances flout must
necessarily undergo a heavy decline. It
is, therefore, the duty arid interest of our
planting friends in this section, who have
Wen ho favorably blessed, to hurry their
Wheat to market without delay. By doing
si), good prices will be realized, whereas if
they delay unnecessarily, producer-; alone
Will suffer, as the large yield will force
down present rates.
in this connection, we acknowledge the
receipt of new flour from Messrs. George
T. Jackson k Go., of the Granite Mills; j
the brand is “Extra Family,” and it is
rjeally something extra, as all who have j
tried are willing to testify. These gentle- I
men will pay the highest market price for
new wheat.
New wheat from Georgia has made its
appearance on the New York Corn Lx- !
change. The ripening of the harvest will i
advance northward at the rate of twelve
miles a day. In the tide water regions of
\ irginia the harvest will commence by the j
I bih instant. New Southern wheat and
flour will soon bo in market. The Nor
folk / toy Hook rornarksth.it—
Gotten, tobacco, and sugar, therefore, i
bid fair to become secondary considera- 1
lions in comparison with the grain crops.
We are informed that wheat, which is
shown to be of a superior quality to that
raised at the North, can he cultivated in a
comparatively short season and with few
laborers. We notice that Southern flour
always commands the highest price in the
Northern cities, and its production is un- 1
limited in all the Southern country. If
the large plantations were divided into ,
small farms, emigration would eventually
largely supply the want of negro labor, and ;
the usual crops would probably then be
made to pay. But the question at present
is, how to make the most and the best of
the labor now on the ground ; and this will
be answered by devoting the best lands in
the South to crops that can he easily rais
ed, and which now are in the largest de
mand.
A Bow Amonii the Colored Folks.
-There has been a chunk of a row among
the colored folks at Columbus, in this
State. The Sun says :
There was a considerable disturbance
Sunday afternoon. A negro man had
pointed out to policemen MoGirr and
W ood what he supposed to he Luke, a
n to, who killed another negro on Mr.
Wood folk Walker’s plantation, and es
caped from a jail a few weeks since. Luke
was arrested. Immediately a large crowd
of in groes gathered around and wanted to
kill the negro who had pointed out to the
authorities one he thought was a criminal,
it was vvitlr the utmost difficulty that the
policemen, by expostulating, threats, &u.,
could save him. The mob around at one
tunc numbered about one hundred and
fifty, and several of the cowardly scoundrels
were calling out, Kill him ! Kill him !
They did not appear to have a word
against the criminal, but were slitter
again t the informant, who had done what
he did at the request of a negro woman,
whose relative had been slain.
Augusta Behind —A BoardopTrade.
■We lrnVe, on many previous occasions,
urged upon the business men of Augusta
tlie great importance of organizing a Board
of Trade. At the request of some pronii
nent merchants wo again advert to this
subject, with the hope that action will be
taken in the premises without delay.
There is no more appropriate oceasion than
the present. Our merchants have ample
time now to umko the necessaiy arrange
ments, so that when the full trade begins
the Board will be thoroughly organized.
\\ bile all business men are conversant
with the lieiielits arising from such institu
tions, it is very strange that those of our
own city should be so derelict in inaugu
rating and sustaining a movement which
must result in good.
Every city ot' any prominence in the
conn try has cither an Exchange, Chamber
«>i Commerce, or Board ol Lrado, and,
when! properly conducted) the business
community and thi? people generally find it
ol areat practical advantage in furthering
the mercantile and agricultural interests of
their respective cities and sections. Atlanta
amUWaeon have their Hoards of Trade, and
has every city of any rote in the South.
And yet here, i:: th-j city of Augusta,
with a population of nearly 25,000 and a
prominence in the mercantile world sur
passed by only live other cities in the
South, the merchants have no system for
conducting business but the old tangled
foggy one of fifty years ago. If you want
to know the price of any leading article
no two merchants agree, so that it is
almost impossible to ascertain what are
really the ruling rates. 1 »ut this is only
one of the many disadvantages of which the
consumers and merchants complain. A
Hoard of Trade would regulate these draw
hick.- and benefit the planter and business
man alike, in establishing certain fixed
regulations for the conduct of trade
upon some expeditious and uniform
plan advancing the interests of all interested.
In the establishing of a general and uni
form system of trade, our people are in
terested, and the business community par
ticularly. Let our merchants, then, wake
up from their old fogyistn, and do what
will conduce not only to their own good,
but that of the people who trade with this
city.
Sn.l ixii Ot r.—The Atlanta Intelli
,;cu, . r contains a column and a half of
Marshal’s sales of City lots to Ire sold ton
non pay ment of taxes. This tells a woeful
sale of the straitened circumstances of our 1
neighbors of the Gate City, which we very
much regret.
Seditious am* Fai.se. —ln the ease of
the negro man who was shot and killed .
Thursday night, by the watchman on the !
premises of Mr. F. Coggin, Superintend
ent of the Factory, while in the act of
stealing, the testimony before the Coroner’s
Jury, resulted in a verdict of justifi
able hotnici le. In the very face of this
verdict, the ley a! Georgian of Saturday
positively states that the freedman was
shot by a party of white men while out
serenading. The same paper, referring to
the murder of the late Mr. John W. Price
by a band of armed negroes, seems to justify
this cold-blooded assassination as an offset
to the alledged murder of a freedman last
year by some white men iu Columbia county.
It is a matter of serious regret that a paper
which has it in its power to do good,
should wilfully lend itself to such a perver
sion of facts in publishing inflammatory
and distorted appeals to the prejudices and
passions of the freedmen. Its utterances
tor some time past are calculated to incite
the freedmen to deeds of violence, by in
culcating Agrarian and seditious teachings.
\\ e are in favor of the fullest protection to
the persons and property of all classes and
conditions of men; but we respectfully
submit tint the teachings of certain white
men m out midst is not intended to pro
mote peace and harmony between the two
races.
A Local Fight. -The locals of the
Intelligencer and iV,ic Era, 0 f the Gate
City, have had lively skirmishing for the
past week, during which any amount ot
complimentary epithets were brought into
play. The fight seems to have resulted in
a drawn game, it being difficult to decide
to whom the victory belongs.
, Military Governments South.
The New York Express .-ays: ‘Tor a
quarter of a century to-come, ex necessitate
rei —we are to have Military Monarchies
in the South—and it is best there should
be—as Civil Government is to pass over
into the hands of half-civilized and ex
tremely ignorant negroes. ‘Sheridan,’
‘Sickles,’ and ‘Pope’ (White) Govern
ment,, are far better than Afhantee, Tim
buctoo, or Congo Governments— Ex. neces
sitate, We say, because experience demon
strate i. that wherever whites have taken
into Government negro co-partners, as in
Jamaica and the .Spanish Americas, a
Strap Government, that is, an Epaulette
Government, is indispensably necessary.
Even in Hayti, where the negro majority
cxciodi-s the whites from holding real
estate, .n order to drive them off, only
straps can govern. The cost of ali these
Governments to the Northern people wiii
lie very great, to be sure—from thirty to
fifty cents, every day. on the wages of the
common laborer—and thousands and thou
sands of dollars upon merchants, bankers
capitalists, and men of incomes. The In
come Tax is indispensably nescestary —as
the Strap Governments—and hence our
Asters, Stewarts, and many others, must
lay by their thousands, and tens of thou
sands, every year, for twenty-five years to
come, to pay for the ‘{Sheridan,’ ‘oickief
and ‘Pope’ Strap Governments, South.
“Nevertheless, and notwithstanding, we
do not quite agree with the Times (and
we name the Tint/ 1 especially as repre
senting the Seward influence of the Gov
ernment, which are now the real Executive
Government), in hoping that the Presi
dent will stanji by .Sheridan, Sickles, Pope
k Cos., in removing Governors, Mayors,
Aldermen, Representatives, kc. Gov.
Welles may be a.very had man, and politi
cally he ‘is, iri deserting tiie white people
of Louisiana to go over to the negroes;
but he is the Governor, de facta and <!<■
jure, and his removal by Sheridan —only
‘a brave soldier boy,’ at best—is, in pol
itics, a folly, and, in constitutional govern
ments, a crime. It is a folly, in politics,
because this sort of a military dictatorship
is very expensive, inasmuch .as it compels
the United States to keep up, as long as
such things exists, an expensive military
establishment in Louisiana, for the pres
ence of bayonets alone can enforce Strap
or Military Law. ft is ‘a crime,’ be
cause it proclaims us all ‘Liars,’ when
we prate of the ‘Declaration of Independ
ence,’ or of ‘Constitutions,’ or ‘Right
of Trial by Jury,’ ‘Free Govern
ment,’ and other such (at present)
nonsense. The probability is, that
Sheridan, though doubtless a very good
dragoon, has not half tho experience, or
political sense, or practical education of
Welles. West Point is a very poor politi
cal, though a vciy excellent, military
school. Until a boy graduating there has
had, 20, or JO, or 40 years of military ex
perience, and thus becomes a mature man,
he never ought to he trusted with the gov
ernment of other men out of the camp.
Anns and the Toga are ever in antagon
ism. Guns cannot, by the very nature of
their mahe, work with law.
“If, however, we are to have any gov
ernments of the ‘Sheridan,’ ‘Sickles,’
or ‘Pope’ kind —better abolish all others.
We have so-called provisional govern
ments of the South, that a Sheridan, or a
Sickles, or a Pope can topple over with
the points of their swords in five minutes,
a reproach upon our constitutional civili
zation, mere mockeries of all our preten
sions to civil government, and daily pro
claiming us liars in our Declaration of In
dependence, liars in our Constitution —liars
—when as now, thousands of us are among
the Kings, Queens, Czars, Kaisars and
Sultans of Europe, prating of our ‘Re
public,’ and‘lying’ Republicanism.”
“Os Two Evils t lioose tue Least.”
“Onslow,” the correspondent of the St.
Paul Pioneer, speaking of the Sherman
bill, has the following in a late letter :
General Pope said to a gentleman, the
other day, that unless wo adopt this bill,
and that speedily, Congress would impose
still harsher measures on us, and in less
than twelve months we would tinu our
selves in tho condition of Tennessee and
Missouri. The gentleman replied, “that
it was to avoid the condition of Tennessee
and Missouri that ho was opposed to the
measure; that these States were in the
Union and enjoyed the benign protection
of tho Federal Constitution, and yet were
ten thousand times worse off than we
were ; that Ohio or Connecticut or Penn
sylvania cared very little what Brownlovv
did iu Tennessee or Fletcher in Missouri ;
but they did begin to wince when Congress
attempted the same tyranny in Georgia,
because their turn might soon come.”
Said the General. “What are you going
to do, then?” The gentleman replied,
“defeat the convention if possible, and re
main under military rule, for we would
much prefer Gen. Pope for our king than any
such Governor as wo would ho compelled
to elect by the provisions of the Sherman
Bill." The Geneial replied, “But. sir,
the country won’t stand a perpetual milita
ry government.” Said the gentleman, “l
am well aware of that. Congress has
placed military rulers over us, and L think
we can stand it. if they can, and l for one,
propose to stand it until they get tired of
paying them. Why did Congress enact
that we should go through the tarce of an
election, ami give us the option of voting
convention or no convention ? Why not
have prepared just such a constitution as
tliej desired and designate the men in
view to elect? I can see no reason for it,
except that they desire us to do by our
own act, and complete by State legislation
what they are not yet prepared to accom
plish by a farther usurpation of authority.
Confiscation and blood is what their lead
ers desire, and this they well know cannot
be brought about until the Southern
States are placed under the contrcfl of such
masters as Brownlow and Fletcher.”
The Suffrage Question at the
Soi l'll. —The following important infor
mation in regard to the suffrage question
in the South, appeared in the Washing
ton City Intelligencer of Friday last, the
11 th instant :
“The opinion of the Attorney-General
supplementary to that recently given and
published upon the proper interpretation ol
the late reconstruction acts of Congress
respecting sutlrage in the Southern States,
has not yet been completed, and will not
be, we understand, for some time. So lar
as the orders of commanding Generals up
on this subject haveboen received officially,
their terms have not been found to con
form to the general principles laid down in
the opinion already promulgated, although
they have been issued since its publica
tion. and ignorance of its manifest import
eatiuot be plead as a ground of ignoring
the views of the Government. This,
however, is but an additional evidence of
the despotism of the Generals in command
of several military districts carved out of
the Southern States, to disregard the in
terpretation of the law* as expounded by
the civil authority, executive and judicial.
! We have good reasons, nevertheless, to Le-
I live that instructions, founded upon the
i ideas of the chief legal officer of the Gov
ernment, will lie given iu due time, in a
more categorical manner, and in such form
I as to render compliance a matter of mili
! tary as well as civil duty.
Invitation to General Pope. —The
municipal authorities of Savannah have
adopted a preamble and resolutions in
viting General Pope and stall to visit that
city. A Committee of three was ap
pointed to call upon General Pope and in
vite him to visit Savannah at such time as
may be convenient, consisting of Mayor
Anderson, Aldermen Wylly and Bingham,
with Aldermen Gue, Burroughs and Yilla
longa as alternates.
Hon. Joshua Hill.— We see a state
ment going the rounds of the Press, to the
effect that the Hon. Joshua Hill has been
appointed a Commissioner in Bankruptcy,
for the Southern Judicial (de-deral) Dis
trict of this State.
We learn that this is an error. Colonel
Hill has been appointed a Commissioner
for the First Congressional District, and
Col. Hesseltine for the Second Congres
sional District. Our informant is a gen
tleman who, we believe, is correctly posted
in this matter.
Telegraphic Communication With
H OME- The Rome Courier of the 15th an
nounces that the Western Union Tel
egraph Company has extended its lines to
that city, and that Rome is now in light
ning communication with the entire

Poisoned with Ice Cream. —Yester-
day afternoon the gentlemen employed in
the Merchants’ National Bank, on Jeffer
son street, feeling the heat oppressive, de
termined to cool off on ice cream, and sent
out for a supply. When it came live of
them partook freely, and were almost im
mediately afterward attacked with symp
toms of having been poisoned. 'J hey com
plained of great pain, and were severely
purged and vomited. Dr. C. H. Stanley
was called in and gave the needful medical
care, but the poisoned parties were all so
badly affected that they could not here
moved, but laid all night in the bank,
which was closed at two o’clock in the af
ternoon. It is feared that one of those
poisoned will not recover. The ice cream
not eaten was taken to Dr. Stanley’s office
and there examined, and found to have in
it a portion of sulphate of copper. Further
chemical analysis will be made, but the
copper Is doubtless the poison that was
contained i:i tho ice cream. Un examina
tion of the place where the ice cream was
made it was found that a copper freezer
had been used. If it was cleaned before
using, it is very singular that the poison
should have impregnated the ice cream.—
Mempli is A vainnche.
The editor of the Savannah Republican,
commenting on the foregoing, says:
“Wo have heard of several instances
where the same dangerous effects have
been produced by people eating cream
cakes that were baked in copper kettles.
Several cases of wholesale poisoning have
been reported, and a largo number of them
have been traced to the use of copper ves
sels. Copper cooking utensils are ui*fit lor
use, and we advise the public to beware of
using them.”
Would it not be well for our people to
be careful how they purchase ice cream
from itinerant venders.
The Judiciary Committee;.—The
papers North are making merry over the
grand impeachment fizzle. The New York
Courier says :
The Judiciary Committee have been in
session for months—they have made the
most searching investigation into the
President’s comings and goings, his say
ings personally and officially ; have gone
into his houses, upstairs and downstairs,
and in my lady’s chamber ; have nosed his
cupboard, peeped into his trunks, ex
amined his wardrobe, listened at key
holes, and set spies at his back boor ; and
finally backed out. Now, we would like
to see the evidence obtained. The old
quotation informs us that :
“Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled
peppers. And a peck of pickled peppers
Peter Piper picked;
Immediately thereafter putting a resolu
tion of injury, preceded by a preamble—
“ Now if Peter Piper picked a peck of
pickled peppers
Where's tho peck of pickled peppers
Peter Piper picked ?”
We want to see the peck of pickled pep
pers that have been picked by the Peter
Pipers of the Judiciary Committee.
Good Advice to Mechanics and La.
hom.ers.--A Northern exchange advises
every mechanic and laborer to buy a bouse
and lot in or beyond the suburbs of a town
or city—if possible an acre. It says if the
spot is not inviting- it may bo made so by
trees, shrubbery, and cultivation. The
paper from which we quote says :
“Secure the land, and your credit will at
once be raised fifty per cent. A mechanic
living on rent throws away all the improve
ments ho may make. He accumulates
little or no capital around him. On the
other hand, when he has a house he can
call his own, everything he does counts
something. All his labors cluster. lie
has a home of his own and it is his pride
1 and pleasure to adorn it to the best of his
j ability.”
| The Negro Votes—A Self-Evident
j Truth.—We are indebted to the New
York Times, a leading Republican organ,
] for the following sound opinion. It say’s :
I “It is impossible that the whites and
blacks of the South should be mustered
into opposition camps, politically, without
a consequent hostility in all the relations of
life. Their only hope lies in harmony of
sentiment, based on a conviction of har
; inouy 01 interest. And the systematical
j crusade which is now going on, and which
I tends directly to a disturbance of these re
[ lations, may well cause disquiet and resent
. ment to the whites in tho Southern
I States.”
A Choice Epistle. —Peirpoint, the
1 Governor of Virginia, in answer to a re
quest ol’ Paul Bagley to sign a petition for
the pardon of Mr. Davis, writes as follows: j
Commonwealth op Virginia, 1
Executive Departing, June 4, ISO", j
I ask for the pardon of no man who will |
not ask for his own pardon. God cannot j
pardon unless the transgressor first ask for
j ins own pardon. Reason—contrary to the
j established law of God.
F. 11. Peirpoint.
Rev. Paul Bagley.
A dispatch of the 10th from Washington
to the Western Press gives this piece of
information: “ A number of political
managers, it is, stated, are in Washington
trying to sound General Grant on the
question of accepting the nomination for
the Presidency. It is further said the
! General has intimated that lie does not
desire it himself, but would like for the
nomination to he extended to General
Sherman.’’
The Macon Firemen at Savannah.—
The Ocmulgee Fire Company of Macon
has been on a visit to Savannah. The
, firemen of that city gave them a cordial
reception. As usual upon such occasions,
the visiting and resident firemen of both
cities had a “ big time.”
Death of an Estimable Lady.—A
telegram from Dr. F. M. Robinson, of 1
Charleston, to relatives in this city, an- ;
nounoesthe death of a most estimable lady
—Mrs. George Mixer—wife ot George G.
Mixer, Esq., of Charleston, S. C.
Congress anh the Constitution. — j
The New York Tiims is showing the en
tire work of Congress in regard to recon- !
structionto have been extra-constitutional. \
It asks, where in the Constitution does
anybody “find authority for Congress to
pass a law excluding certain States from
representation until they pass laws or
adopt Constitutions such as Congress may
prescribe; or to subject the civil func
tionaries of a Stifle to the paramount
authority of a military commander ; or to
decree universal negro suffrage in the
Southern State* as the condition of restora
tion ? We can find no such authority,
and never eould . nor have we ever been
fortunate enough to find one who eould
point it out." Having thus made this
formidable front, it is to be hoped the
Times will not hereafter go back upon its
position.
The Chicago lions says: "Kelly has
returned to Philadelphia, and has been re
ceived by his friends. He does not pro
claim. as Wilson did, that all mankind in
the South, white as well as black, are going
to vote the Jacobin ticket.. The inference
is that he has some doubts on that point.
The only point concerning which he seems
to feel positive is. that A. Johnson was the
author of the Mobile riot. The riot, he
says, was premeditated; who is capable of
premeditating anything to disturb the
equanimity of loyal men. except A. John
son? A. Johnson, says Kelly appointed a
recreant Northerner to a post of profit in
Mobile; of course A. Johnson’s object in
making that appointment must have been
to instigate a riot when Kelly should visit
that city, and cause him to be shot at !”
It is not believed in Washington that
Gen. Sheridan will be removed, no matter
what course may be taken by the Execu
tive relative to the recent removals of
Louisiana officials by that officer.
Rev. Joel T. Headley is said to be the
author of Detective Baker s book.
Letter from Jefferson.
Louisville, Ga., June 10th, 1867.
Messrs. Editors : Quite a demonstration
was made in cur town on Saturday last by
the freedmen of this county, the occasion
being an address to the Union Republican
Party, by a Rev. John Corston (colored).
| of Washington city, who, it seems, is a col
-1 league of Gilbert L. Eberhart, who is Su
perintendent 01 Ireedmen s Schoolsin this
State. But a few days' notice brought
together trom the most distant portions ot
the county, the young and old. the maimed,
halt, and' blind, all on getting
land'divided out to them, and i Heard that
the belief was so general, that on Judge
place the negroes actually divided
1 and picked out different locations for each
family. Consequently, at a very early hour,
upon every road leading town, might
have beeu seen groups of from five to
twenty, wending their way to the speakers
•Hand, in order to get as near the "Holy
Shekeriah" 3s possible. After notice oe
ing given by ringing the market bell, the
straegler; assembled under the “big oaks,
and were there formed in line by Bradiy
Mathews and Jarvey Hall, under the su
perintendence of the President of the
Colored Union League, Geo. Warthen, for
the purpose of supplying each man with a
badge of blue ribbon and receiving a dollar
in return, a great many ot which were
shelled out, to the gratification of Pompey,
Hannibal j- Cos. Curiosity prompted me
to ask one of the blue hedged boys if he
knew where his money was going, to which
he replied that it was/or to keep wp the l nion
or to buy a paper, he did’nt exactly know
which. After the distribution of badges,
the column matched down the road and
counter-marched back, and haired opposite
the Freedmen’s Seminary. Just at this
time my attention was attracted to another
column of about the same size without
badges, marching in the wake of the former,
and upon inquiry was informed that it was
the Conservative Democracy, commanded
by a man from Yirginia, whose name I
was unable to learn; he seemed to lie well
posted in tactics. This column also
niarqhed down to the aforesaid institution j
of learning, and halted in the rear of the;
first. After waiting but a few minutes,
the students made their appearance and
fell into the column, numbering in all
about 500, with the chernbims in the rear.
It is unnecessary for me to follow them in :
their march; suffice it to say, their leaders
inarched, counter-marched, and double
quicked them until one would have sup
posed them to be (as seen at a distance), a
regiment of looking glasses, from the re- j
lloftion of the sun upon the grease and
perspiration as it poured out of their nat
urally slick ebouized faces. You can scarcely
imagine a scene more ludicrous than to see
a company of Uncle Thad’s Pet Cherubims
(as they call themselves) dressed in their
bib and tucker, double-quicking through
the hot sun and dust to the tune of one
dollar for the privilege of marching with
the crowd, and as inuch more as they can
conveniently spare. Arrived at the stand
a here the speaker was in waiting, they
were arranged in the most convenient man
ner for all to hear. The police (colored)
appointed early in the morning, preserving
order.
After prayer, the speaker arose and en
gaged tho attention of the crowd for about
one hour and a half, the substance oi his
remarks being the history of the party he
represented, the corruption of the North
ern Democracy, the probabilities of a suc
cessful Radical Campaign, and a warning
appeal to his fellow-countrymen to beware
ot the Brownites. lie spoke at length
upon the privileges granted them by Con
gress, and particularly advised them not
to sell their birth-right for a bushel of corn
or a bottle of whiskey. He also told them
they need not expect to live on freedom
alone, but must go to work and earn a
living, be polite and obedient to their em
ployers, to which a great many demurred.
His concluding remarks were addressed to
the elected Cherubims. Baid lie had
travelled all over the country, but had
rarely seen such a display of beauty and
fashion among the fair daughters of his
race; he advised them to persevere in the
cause in which they had enlisted, and be
certain to contribute all they could spare
whenever the hat came round. With these
remarks the speaker took his seat, amid
tremendous applause.
Upon tho whole, his remarks were less
objectionable than one would have expect
ed, and tho general impression is that the
whole affair will have rather a beneficial
effect than otherwise, for a great many, af

| COMMUNICATED. \
Messrs. Editors:— Your paper of Satur
day reports the decision in the case of
Heard vs. The Mechanics' Hank. This
report contains one important mistake.
The Court did decide that the surrender
of a charter was inoperative, till seeeited
by the Legislature ; but did uot and ;cide
that the assignment of the Bank was, as
you state, “illegal and void.” No question
was made as to the validity of the assign
ment. It was not even offered in evidence.
As to the remark that the decision meets
the approval of the “legal mind of this
city,” and, will probably be affirmed by
the Supreme .Court; I have only to say
that same, at least of our ablest lawyers, are
of a different 0j Jnion as to the decision of
the Supreme Court. We have no right to
speculate. Lex.
Races of Men.
The third lecture of C. Chauncey Burr,
on The Races of Men, was delivered at
American Hall on Wednesday evening. It
was full of interest. The facts that he
presented were the result of long research
and careful study. lie brought forward
evidence to prove that the tribes of Africa
have not progre-sed for five thousand
years—that they are now the same in char
acter that they were three thousand years
before the Christian era. lie exhibited a
copy of a painting representing a butcher’s
room among a tribe on the west coast of
Africa, as it was painted over three hun
dred years ago. Human remains were cut
up and hung up as beef is exposed on our
butchers’ stalls. The same thing may be seen
there to-day. All the efforts ot Christian
philanthropy to civilize African tribes have
failed —all the vast sums of money that
have been expended upon them have been
wasted; the only impression upon them
being their destruction. Colonization to
that country has utterly failed; and when
any of the tribes have been kept under the
influence of civilization, it has been by
force, r.ot by moral influences. By force
alone have of the wild tribes been kept
at all within the influences of Christian
civilization. He assumes that no wild,
barbarous tribe ever was civilized. He
claims that the Caucasians were never bar
barous. The old Britons at the Roman Con
quest were civilized and cultivated. They
forged immense chains to protect their rivets
—they had universities of learning, requir
ing a course of study of 20 years —they un
derstood geography, astronomy, and
mechanic arts. History has in many cases
misrepresented them. While the char- I
acter of the negro has been permanent
from his creation, so has that of thcCauca- j
sian. Learning and invention have changed ;
their condition, but in the development of j
brain they are no greater now than they j
were three thousand years ago. Homer
has never been excelled as a poet, and !
there were more than twenty poets in j
Athens, either of whom was as great as j
any poet upon the earth to-day. In paint- 1
ing and in architecture,the ancients ex
celled. He produced many facts to show j
the permanence of the Caucasian as well as
of the negro character. He forcibly
sustained the theory that each type of i
man was a special creation by the Deity,
and they cannot be changed any more than 1
the different species of birds and animals ]
can be changed within the zones where
they were created. The owl cannot be
educated into an eagle ; a crow cannot be
transformed to a canary bird by ac
cident or climate ; nor can an ass be turn
ed into a hor-e. ora giraffe into a mule.
Nor can the Hottentot be changed to a
Malay, or a Malay into the Australian or
New Zealander, or the Mongolian or wild
Indian into the African, or the African
into the red North American Indian or the
i Caucasian. Each type ever has and ever
will maintain its peculiar characteristics,
as God made them and intended them to
exist. Attempts to change the character
istics" of these different types of men only
tend to make them worse or to exterminate
i them. The bones, the skin, the skull, the
I hair and the character of the negro have
I been different from those of the white race
| for at least five thousand years, and. will,
under an inexorable law of God, remain so
through all time. He invites criticism and
| correction of his facts, with proofs. Ho
desires the truth, and the man who corrects
any statement he may make, and proves
it to be an error, is his friend, for it is the
truth that he is seeking ; and many thou
sands of miles has he travelled and many
! months and years of toil has he spent to
i learn it with reference to the races and
■types of men. —Hartford (Conn.) limes.

I Attorney-General's Secuiid Opinion.
Washington. June 15, p. m.—lt is
, iudorstood in official eirclca that the At
: lOruev-Ucncral, in his opinion just pre
i pared, holds that the Reconstruction acts
! provide for two governments—Military
j ‘ lß| l Civil; that both are provisional and
to be obeyed, but to eease when reorgan
ization of the State Gbt'ernroents take
i place. He also takes the position that the
! military is only to protect all in their rights
of personal property, and for the preserva
i tkm of order and the suppression of violence
, and crime. There is no authority in the law
for removal by the Military Commander of
the proper officers of a State, neither Exe
cutive nor Judicial, or the appointment of
their successors; the Military Commander
is not authorized to destroy but is bound
to protect civil officers, a Military Com
mander being regarded as a conservator of
the peace and not an abrogator of the law.

Hungary.
Pf.stii, Hungary, Saturday, -Tune 8. —
The Emperor and Empress of Austria
were to-day crowned King and Queen of
Hungary, with mediaeval pomp and splen
dor.
The sun rose clear and bright, hut was
obscured by passing clouds, which, by
some, was,considered as a premonition of
the future of Hungary.
The city was crowded with visiters from
all parts of the world, and was splendidly
decorated. The Ambassadors of all nations
having diplomatic relations with Austria,
except the United States, were present on
i the occasion.
The condition of the Empress Mathilde,
or of Maximilian, the late Emperor of
Mexico, did not interfere with the cere
monies. neither did Kossuth’s recent letter
diminish the popular enthusiasm on the
occasion.
The coronation took place at Ofen,
across the river Danube, and the conclud
ing rites in this city.
Eight hundred Hungarian and Austrian
nobles, sixty Peeresses, a hundred diplo
matists, and thousands of strangers, wit
nessed the coronation. The scene was
magnificent. Bishops of the Roman
Catholic and Latin Churches assisted at
the ceremony.
The costumes displayed were gorgeous.
The Emperor was anointed in the ancient
I robes, crown, mantle and shoes of St.
Stephen, the first Christian King of
; Hungary.
| The Empress was anointed under the
right armpit.
i The special mass, sung by the Imperial
i choir from Vienna, was composed by
| Liste.
After the coronation, the King knighted
several Hungarians, and then rode in
j person to Pesth, where he took the oath,
in which ho promised to reconquer the
‘ ancient limits of Hungary.
The pageant far exceeded anything de
scribed by Froissart or Sir Walter Scott.
Nothing like it has been witnessed for
centuries, and, in all probability, they will
never be repeated.
The coronation ceremonies were closed
by the King riding up a mound of earth
: formed of soil brought from the different
departments of Hungary, and waving his
sword at the four points of the compass,
at tie same time solemnly swearing that
he would defend the Kingdom against the
world.
There was an immense cheering from
! the assembled multitude during, the per
; formanc; of the rites.
There is a grand illumination and ban
| quet to-night. At the banquet Peers act
; as servants.
The Hungarian Diet voted a hundred
| thousand ducats as a present to the King
and Queen. There was the greatest ex
citement and enthusiasm displayed. Ten
Archdukes were present. The Austrian
Prime Minister, Von Beust, was con
spicuous. Mons. Deak was absent. M.
j Androssy crowned the King and Queen.
I A general amnesty of political offences has
j been proclaimed.
France.
Paris, Sunday, June 10. —Information
has been received here that several towns
in France were illuminated last evening in
honor of the escape of the Czar of Russia
from the attempt to assassinate him.
Beregouski, the would-be assassin of the
Czar, shows no signs of repentance for his
deed. The Poles residing here have signed
an address to the Emperor Napoleon, ex
pressing their sorrow and detestation of
the act of their countryman.
The Czar, in reply to the congratulatory
address ot the French Ministers, said the
occurrence could but strengthen the bonds
which unite him to France and the Emperor
Napoleon, and his remembrance of the
manifestations of public sympathy in his
behalf would be imperishable.
The Crown Princess of Prussia left this
afternoon for Germany : the Prince is stay
ing at the Tuileries.
St. Pkteksbitroh, Sunday, June 9. —
There were services in all the Churches
yesterday in recognition of the Divine
interposition in p;otec'ing the Czar against
the attempted assassination.
Warsaw, Funday, June 9. Tu the
morning of yesterday the inhabitants and
all the notables of this town left their
names with the Lieutenant-Governor, and
the nobility met and resolved to send a
deputation to Paris with an address to the
Czar and to Napoleon, expressing their
horror at the attempt to kill the former.
The Black Vote in the Future.—
The Nation says that the negro population
of the South will have always to rely on its
natural increase for its growth, while the
white population is swollen every year by
an enormous immigration. Let it appear
that political tranquility is once restored to
the South, and we may be sure that,
slavery being gone, the great and advancing
tide, which isriow eatingevery year farther
and father into the heart of the Western
wilderness, will begin to steal very rapidly
j into the Southern forests, and to swamp
the black vote everywhere. There is not
the ghost of a chance that in ten years
there will in any Southern State be a
black majority, and that the ballot will he
; of any use to the negro except to defend
the fruits of his own toil. There is no
danger just now, however, that the negro
may be led astray, and that his education
' in civilization may, by -bad counsels, be
i made bitterer and harder than it need be.
; The Gold Mines of North Carolina,
An old miner writes to the Charlotte
Times that the gold mining interest of the
! Western part of that State is attracting a
large share of attention from Northern
1 capitalists. The hotels are crowded with
them, and every train brings mills, engines
and machinery, to be used in working the
mines. About eighteen or twenty stamp
: mills are up and being erected ; four or
five of which are now in full operation,
and at the Huey Mine they have a ten
stamp mill which is now producing S3OO in
bullion per day. Scientific miners from
California, with large experience in gold
mining, have examined the mining in
terests of North Carolina, and have
pronounced them equal to the rich val
leys and mountain gorges of that famous
land of gold.
A New Scheme.—The Radicals have
on foot a scheme to disfranchise the State
of Kentucky in the lower house of Con
gress. The result of the Congressional
election in that State is not pleasing to the
Radical majority in Congress, and it is sug
gested that the few Radicals in Kentucky
take ex parte evidence to show that those
engaged in the rebellion voted for the suc
cessful candidates, and upon this evidence
they are to he prohibited from takjng their
seats. Upon this pretext the entire dele
gation will lie rejected, and Radicals,
wherever they can he found, will be voted
in. Votes cast for Radicals will alone be
held to be legal. This is the scheme at
present, and time will develop whether
they dare attempt to carry it out.-- Detroit

REVIEW OF THE AUGUSTA MARKET,
FOR THE WEEK ENDING) JUNE 14TH, 1567.
COTTON.—The market opened at about
24 cents for Middling, and lias continued
inactive during the week, closing without
any quotable change.
The Liverpool market has been charac
terized by a better -feeling, and lias con
tinued steady with a fair demand, the
sales of the week amounting to 61,000
bales, Middling Upland closing at llgd
and Orleans at llgd.
The New York market lias ruled quiet
but steady, closing at 27 cents for Middling
Upland.
3 he great scarcity of money with the de
pression in the leading markets prevents
anything like activity prevailing in the
home market. Buyers are few and exact
sales at low rates, to which holders are
unwilling to submit except whenever
money is imperatively demanded. The
following gives the week’s operations:
Saturday.—' The market has been ex
tremely dull to-day and very little was
done; therefore we will not pretend to give
quotations. The few sales made amount
ed to 20 bales, as follows:—! at 20, Gat 22,
9at 23, and 4 bales at 24 cents. The re
ceipts were 12 bales.
Monday. —There was some little de
mand this morning, but in the afternoon
Liverpool advices of a decline caused a
dullness in this market. It is impossible
for us to give quotations, but refer to sales,
which amounted to 156 balos, as follows:
1 at 21, 17 at 22, 8 at 235 and 127 bales (Mid
dling to Strict Middling) at 24 cents. The
receipts were only 3 bales.
I'uesday. —The market was very quiet
to-day and sales were limited, showing no
material change in prieos. The demand
was light. The sales amounted to 72 bales,
as follows :—1 at 20, 41 at 234, 4 at 231, and
20 bales at 24 oents. The receipts were 30
bales.
Wednesday. —The market continues un
changed, there being but little inquiry.
Buyers offer a fraction lower than sellers
are willing to take, in consequence of
which very few sales were effected,
amounting to only 06 bales, as follows:
1 at 18, 4 at 20, 22 at 211, 10 at 22, 4 at 221, 1
at 23, 3 at 231, and 21 bales at 24 cents. The
receipts wore 13 balos. ,
Thursday. —The market was very quiet
to-day and sellers aro firm, holding Mid
dling to Strict Middling at 24@25 cents,
Low Middling at 23!@24 cents. There
were very few buyers in the market. Wo
could only find2s bales sold, as follows:
lat 22, 17 at 241, and 7 bales at,25 cents.
The receipts wero 18 bales.
Friday. The market opened quite
brisk this morning with an active general
demand and full prices, say about 25 cents
for Strict Middling, showing an advance
of fully 1 cent, but in the afternoon the
market closed tame, owingtotho quietude
prevailing in Now York and Liverpool.
The sales to-day amounted to 90 bales, as
follows:—3at 181, 1 at 19,• 2 at 20, 4 at 21,
14 at 211, 2 at 22, 19 at 23, 15 at 241, 10 at 25,
1 at 251, and 25 bales on private terms.
The receipts were 38 bales.

GENERAL REMARKS. The Stereo

i ers will act wisely in hurrying it to mar
: ket, and now realize what it will be impos
sible to do some weeks henceat the present
j rates for wheat. The yield has been so
i large all over the country that prices must
