Curses Coming Home to Roost.—The New York World says: “We nre con stantly receiving letters from men all over the country who have been subjected to unju.fi imprisonment by Seward, Stanton, Holt and lessor :nen‘dressed in a brief authority,’ during the last five years. The e letters endorse with earnestness the proposal made in their letters to the World by T. C. Wright and James W. Wall, two of the most distinguished of the ‘prisoners of State,’for a Convention, on tfce 22d of February, in this city, of all who have been lawlessly and cruelty dealt with. ” The Atlanta correspondent of the New Fork Times writes that General Pope and J. E. Brown have a draft of a constitution ready “cut and dried,” which will be sub mitted to the Convention at an early day, and that iu joint authorship will secure its a loption by a sufficient majority. CHURCHES OF'THE UNITED STATES. The report on the state of religion in the United States, prepared Ly Rev. Henry B. Smith, L). I)., of the Union Theological Seminary, and presented to the General Conference of the ilvangelical Alliance re cently in session at Amsterdam, is a docu ment of great inter st and value, contain ing within a small compass a vast amount of information in regard to the state and progress of religion in this country. We condense from it the annexed statistics, which will be found convenient for refer ence : NUMBER OF CHURCHES, ETC., IN THE UNIT ED STATES. Churches. Communicant*. Roman Catholic, 3,800 4,000,000 Methodists, 10,460 2,000,000 Baptists, 17,220 1,600,000 Presbyterians, 5000 700,000 Lutherans, 2,&00 323, 800 Congregationalists, 2,780 257,400 Prot’t Episcopalians, 2,Boo 161,200 German Reformed, 4,160 110,000 Dutch Reformed, 440 _ 60,000 United Brethren about 3,000 societies. Moravians about 12,000 communicants. Unitarians about 300 churches. Universalists include about 000,009 of the population. Friends or Quakers, orthodox, about 64,(MX) members. Friends or Quakers, Hicksites, about 40,000 members. Rev. A. J. Ryan. —The Savannah Ad vertiser says this distinguished clergyman, the author of the “Conquered Banner,” and many other beautiful pieces of poetry, formerly of Knoxville, Tenn., preached in Chattanooga last Sunday. The Union of that city understands that the scene of his future labors is to be near Savannah. We feel certain that Wo hut sjicak tho fsenti ment of the entire community, Protestant as weii as Catholic, when we assure a cordial welcome to this graceful poet and eloquent orator. L is now stated, in reference to Mr. A. T. Stewart’s rumored philanthropic in vestment in New York, that lie will soon erect a block of dwellings up-town, to cost $1,000,000, and to be forever the home of tho working women of Now York. It is not to be an alms-house, but a homo —more extensive than the VvUrkingwomen’s Home in Einbeth street —where women may find food and shelter at prices within their reach, and whatever revenue it may yield is to be employed in the erection of other like institutions. Mr. Stewart has also resolved to expend $5,000,000 in the erec tion of tenement houses on an approved pian, and to devise them to a board of trustees to bo com posed of one person from every religious denomination in the city, and to bo so rented as to yield a revenue tiiat shali be applied tho construction of other model tenement houses in New York perpetually. The Presbyterian General Assem bly.- -We learn from the Nashville Union and Dispatch that the General Assembly of tho “Presbyterian Church in tho United States” will convene in the First Presbyterian Church in that city Thursday morning at 11 o’clock. The session will commence its proceed ings, after religious service, with the ser monos tho Moderator of the last General Assembly, Rev. Andrew 11. Kerr, D. I). Many important questions of deep interest to Christians generally and to Presby terians particularly, will be presented for deliberation. Among the latter will be the report of the committee appointed to confer with a committee from the Cum berland Presbyterian Church in regard to articles of union between these two bodies of Christians. Negro Credulity.— The Richmond P.r iminer says that “it really appears as n tlici v \uro no limit to the credulity of ik" rot s. Many of them are posset sed of sufficient information to know better than to believe the utterly improbable tales that nre sometimes circulated amongst i! cm. Am ther instance of this trait of tho negro mind lias recently developed itself in this city. JSoine designing scoun drel has started the report amongst them that the doctors of the city are killing ne groes whenever they have an opportunity, lor the purpose of dissecting their bodies ; and that no negro is safe if he trusts his carcass in tho streets after dark. They sa; that the e doctors have a wagon with India rubber tiro \ aud have a horse hitched to it shod with India rubber ; aud that this wagon aud horse pass noiselessly about the streets at night ; that victi- s m e picked up, put into the wagon and carried to the Medical College ‘to be cut up’ ” “Another report is that the Richmond doctors have recently been reinforced by the arrival of about forty students from New York, who have come here to pro cure material for dissection.” Two More Extraordinary Cures.— Augusta. iia., Xovember 21, 1537. This will certify that 1 have been afflicted with cancer in the root of my mouth. It was so painful that 1 could not- rest night or day. It was with great difficulty that l could got food enough by it to support life. It resisted ail medical treatment, and finally eat entirely through the roof of my mouth into my nose. I applied to Dr. Do Lacee just four weeks ago to-day, and am now able to announce, fertile benefit of those that may be suffering from this terrible disease, that 1 am entirely cured of cancer, and restored to perfect health, and am as well as 1 was before being afflicted, Miss Beulah Gcillaurd. I take pleasure in adding my testimony, ; K : ,;h hundreds in the surrounding Siates. that l have been quit k!y cured by IV. De L-icoe.

See card in another column. ukw It is strange that people will continue to bo so careless in the manner ot puttiDc mom y away for safe keeping. One would think that with the present abundance ot banks aud other places deposit, the eostom of hiding money is old stockings, teapots, and other domestic articles, would be abolished. But it is not. Such in stances come to light continually' through the abstraction of these hidden funds by thieves, or their destruction by ignorant persons or children. Here, for example, is the late-i instance: A Mr. Oehlkuch, of .Evansville, lud., put S4OO in a cigar box for sate keeping, wrapped up in a piece of new.- pap’r. A little son of Mr. Oehlkuch desiring to see a good blaze, threw the paper and its conteuts into the fire. If Patti will not marry of course there will be no Patti cake.

M. and Madame Victor Hugo are called L cs Miserablcs.” Conservative lonvention. We regret that so much apathy exists i amongour people in relation to the proposed j Convention in Macon on the sth proximo, j It was this stolid indifference to the result | of the recent election for delegates to ! Pope’s Convention which caused the suc . cess of that measure. If the white people j of the State are determined to make no | effort to save themselves and their pos | terity from negro domination they certainly have the right to do so. If they are pre* i pared to see the control of tho State gov ernment pass unchallenged into the Lands | of Yankee emissaries, scalawags and de ! bauchcd and ignorant negroes, they could j not adopt a mere certain method of bring* i ir.g about such a dire result than that i which, with singular unanimity, seems to j prevail throughout the State of absolute indifference to passing and important j events. We were defeated on the Convention question solely by the want] of concert of views and harmony of action amongst our ; selves. The press labored diligently and j laboriously to bring public sentiment to | some common ground of action, but not | being supported by the people, in whose behalf their efforts were made, their , labor was in vain. The press, with great i unanimity, have made and are nowmaking ) another atttempt to organize the Conser- , ; vative forces in the State preparatory | to the coming canvass upon the ratification j ' ofthe Constitution, which Pope’s C'onven- ! j tion will present to tho people of Georgia j ; at no distant day for their action, either of j approval or disapproval. So far as we j have scan, the people are not seconding the efforts of the press. There seems to be a 1 very general disinclination among the ; masses to take any active part in perfect- j irig a f borough Conservative organization. The people, at least those with whom we have conversed, seem to think that it is not necessary for them to act—that the press can and ought to regulate and decide upon the plan for the approaching canvass. r l here seems to be a growing opposition in the minds of the masses to any participation in the politics of the day. A few leading men in the State and the Conservative press are expected to take upon themselves the whole responsibility of forming and directing public opinion upon the great issues of the day. This is all wrong. If there is not enough at stake in the action of the Radical Convention to call from each and every white voter in the State a decided and emphatic demon stration of opposition and of hostility, then the press should not be expected to take any active stand against the Radical pro gramme. The people are more deeply in terested in the proper solution of our pres ent difficulties than the press. Yet we find that the latter have been, for six months past, urging a fierce war. against Radical reconstruction, without even the moral support which a cordial endorsement of their course by tho masses would have furnished. A Convention has been suggested to meet in Macon on the sth proximo. The objects aud deep importance of this movement arc seen and acknowledged by all. \et we find that, although but twelve days will elapse before tho time for hold ing tho Convention, but three or four counties have taken steps to have repre sentatives in that body. If, from the care lessness, indifference or neglect of the Con servative people of the State, that meeting ends in a failure—and which is now very probable—we believe that the last reason able ground of hope for defeating Radical ism in the State will have passed away, and perhaps forever. With these convictions strong in our minds, we are impelled to make one more appeal to the white people of the State to organize at once in each and every county. Not a moment’s time is to be lost. These organizations cannot be perfected unless the leading men in each section will take sonic trouble and spend some time in bringing the people together. No one should wait for his neighbor to move first. This is no time l'or such modesty and fas tidiousness. Every white man is called upon to be up and active in the good work. Let one or two agree upon a day and then call the people together and commence the work of organization. Re sure that in each county meetings arc held, and dele gates selected in time to be in Macon by the sth of December. The Perjury Case. Judge Erskine has had the Marshal to summon thirteen jurors to take the places ol those challenged by Gov. Brown as counsel for Foster Blodgett, because of their inablity to take the test oath. Tho ease of Blodgett was laid before the new jury on Friday afternoon, when the exami nation of witnesses for tho prosecution was commenced. Tho witnesses summoned on Friday were James Bennett, formerly a Lieutenant of Blodgett’s company in Vir ginia ; Gen. Wright, who commanded the regiment to which Blodgett’s company was attached, and Dr. M. J. Jones, who was a surgeon in Wright’s brigade. Yesterday Mr. Ells, who served in the same regiment (tho 3d Georgia) with Blodgett, was sworn. We learn that several other witnesses have bcei. subpoenaed from this, Burke and Co lumbia counties, to testify for the prosecu tion. The evidence on the part of tho prosecution will hardly be concluded before the middle of next week. The testimony already laid before the jury leaves no doubt as to the guilt of the accused. A clearer case of wilfull and premeditated legal perjury was never, per haps, before exposed in a court of justice. Whether the jury, made up as it is very largely of men whose sympathies are supposed to be with the accused, will find a true bill remains to be ascertained. Whilst we are not entirely without doubts we incline to the opinion that a majority of the jury will do their duty, and if they do, a finding of true bill is inevitable. We learn that Gov. Brown, King John and the whole crew of scalawags are making efforts for the removal of District Attorney Fitch, on account of his conduct in prosecuting Blodgett. They first tried to cajole and coax him out of doing his duty, aud, failing in this, they now seek to | browbeat andintimidate him. This shows that Blodgett and his "white nigger” friends arc hopeless efau acquittal should he t>e vigorously prosecuted. We believe that Col. Fitch will press tlic matter, ut ! tcriy regardless of the threats of Brown, Pope, Blodgett A Cos. Kino I'ofe.— John Pope, the most notorious braggadocio iu the country, and the most complete failure as a general that the war produced, is iu command in Alabama. The Mobile Advertiser, one of the most candid and respectable journals in the South, has seen tit, in a courteous manner, to criticise his acts as the com manding officer of that district. Pope be came indignant, and at once issued an order, duly signed and countersigned by the innumerable officials paid by the U. S. Government to form his staff and Court, in which he deprives the Advertiser of the printing of the Probate Court, the Sheriff, the General Administrator of the city of Mobile and the Federal Advertisements ordered in it from Washington, and that of the U. S. Marshal. It is difficult for us to determine what Pope has to do with the decretal orders of a Federal Court, or how that tribuual for the District of Alabama came under the jurisdiction of the military. This attempt of Pope to muzzle the press is only one of the thousand vexations that ! the military ate heaping upon the people iof the South. We notice that this Pope | made a speech before tbe Alabama Con vention. a body composed of mul3ttoes and field-hands, blacker than night, and a score of Northern men who are down in Alabama operating in cotton, and selling : brass jewelry to the ignorant negroes. In I this speech Pope maintained his old army ! reputation, not having told one single truth in the whole speech. It is an in | famous shame that Andrew Johnson i keeps this bloviating braggart in the posi i tion he now occupies.— Cleveland Plain ! Dealer. Italy now produces for each of her 25,- j 000,uOO inhabitants half a bottle of wine daily. At Callington, England, lately, thirty seven bullocks andja large number of sheep were killed by poison in one night. i A Disgraceful Attempt to Defeat me Ea3s of Justice. In the Federal Court in the city of Sa vannah, a scene hae transpired well calcu lated to make sick tho hear t of the Patriot, i and to excite the profound disgust and in- I dignation of all lovers of Justice. A nig ! ger graduate of a penitentiary, Bradley | by name, Joseph Brown, an ex-Governor 1 of this proud old Commonwealth, and a j United States Judge, are reported as jug | giiog together to screen from punishment | the idlest and most contemptible of the genus jof Southern Radicals , who is threatened j with a prosecution for perjury, one of the ; most debasing crimes known to the penal ; code. Foster Blodgett, a Federal Post master of Augusta, Military Mayor of that unfortunate city, the prospective President ' of Pope's Mulatto Convention, and ex caplain of the Confederate army, was in i dieted for perjury by the Grand Jury ot the Court, the same that had been regu larly empanneiied to consider the cases of all citizens that might be presented to their consideration. Before the indictment was delivered to the Court, upon motion of Joseph E. Brown, and after argument, Judge Erskine ordered such of the Jurors as epuid not take the test oath to be discharged. This order was given after the able and earnest argument and protest of District Attorney Fitch, who, we are pleased to know, is discharging his duty without fear or favor. The result was that tales jurors of the Radical Rump were summoned and sworn in the places of those discharged. Through this loop-hole it is expected that Blodgett will escape, and also Judge Erskine, who seems to have worn his political principles as loosely as his official gown, aud who is said to be as “deep in dirt, as Blodgett is in the mire.” The well-informed correspondent of the New York Times writes to that paper, that in the event of his arraignment, Blod gett intends to add to his present infamy, by setting up in his own defence, the plea that he was not a volunteer, but that his action was constrained by fear. This plea he proposes to support by manufactured evidence calculated to malign and slander the good people of Augusta, iu the shape of documents pretending to show that his life wa3 threatened if he did not go to the war. His real defence consists in the fact that he did nothing but volunteer cud wear a uniform which he disgraced. The proof i 3 abundant aud can easily be reached; which will show that he was utterly incompetent and worthless in the army, so much so that no commander desired him to he attached to his command. Despised by his own men, he spent the time in loafing and idle ness about the camps, until the elections took place in a portion of the army when he was almost unanimously ousted by his own men, and a gallant and meritorious' young soldier selected in his place. There is no shadow of doubt as to his guilt, no question but that he now enjoys the perquisites and emoluments of a Fede ral office, which should have been bestowed upon someone of better qualifications, and unquestionable antecedents. But there is great doubt if he will be brought to pun ishment for his crime. The influences in side and outside of the tribunal having his case in charge are too varied a; id potential to strengthen the hope which every good citizen and lover of justice indulges, that he may occupy a cell iu the Penitentiary rather than a chair in Pope’s Convention, though indeed the margin of infamy be tween the two is alarmingly narrow. The shield that protects this perjurer is his in tense Radicalism, his strong nigger pro clivities. Had he by chance (a chance by tlig by that no Federal office holder at the South takes) dared to declare himself for the constitutional rights of white men, no ingenuity or ability of counsel, no ponder ous plea, or weak technicality of law could possibly have saved him from the doom he justly merits. In the waters of nigger Radicalism all political offences may be at once and for ever purged away.— Columbus Pun. A special dispatch to the New York Times of the 13th, says: A movement is on foot to obtain a repeal of the law of Congress preventing the appointment of additional Judges to the Supreme Court of the United States, until too number of Judges shall have been reduced to six, for the purpose of securing an appointment as Associate Justice for Judge Erskine, of Georgia, at present United ritates District Judge for that State, in place of Associate Justice Wayne, deceased, who was from Georgia. Although Judge Erskine is a staunch Union " man and Republican, President Johnson ia said to favor the scheme. Is there any “movement on foot” to qualify Judge Erskine for the position? Perhaps that would bo best, first. We are aware of his eminent qualifications to pre side in perjury cases, where that “fellow feeling” is so apt to make one wondrous kind, but we do not know that he has shown any special eminence in the quali ties that heretofore have been held to he lo- g to the office to which his grateful friends would elevate him. —Macon Jour nal <& Messenger. Sacred Cattle Against Bull Purs. —The Girard (Pa.) Spectator, published at the home of Dan Bice, informs us that “clubs are being formed in different por tions of the country, bearing the name of this distinguished equestrian, with the view of presenting him as a candidate for the next President ot the United States.” Here is a rival for Grant! Suppose that Dan Bice is nominated for the Presidency against Grant and the fight be on these two very great statesmen. • The war cry would bo ‘ ‘Dan Bice and the sacred cattle,” on the one side, and “Grant and the bull pups” on the other ! Let Dan attempt to secure Wes ton as the second on his ticket, and let Bonner, who owns “Dexter,” or Barnum, who owns a Gorilla and half-a-dcaen slut pups, be placed on the ticket with Grant. Monsieur Pope’s Georgia Menage rie.—This exhibition of Radical Perform ing Animals will be exhibited, for the State of Georgia, in the City of Atlanta (com mencing on the 9th proximo), out of re spect, perhaps, to the fact that there are two Radical papers published there, and can draw patronage for the concern, in aid of the Lincoln .Monument Association. The exhibition will be continued irom day to day, Sundays excepted, wind and ; weather permitting. The catalogue will consist, mostly, of gorillas, ourang-outangs, baboons, apes, and monkeys of various species and colors —the African monkey | making up about one-fifth of the “show.” ; Johnny Pope, the accomplished bare-back | rider and daring tamer of wild beasts, will enter the cage of the fierce gorillas and ! astonish the audience by shaking them by the paws, and demonstrating that they ] possess reasoning powers, and establishing : the proposition that these animals are the connecting links between the anim 1 crea i tion and mankind. We understand the people of Atlanta are making preparations for the caging and feeding of the animals—expecting to l . “dead-headed” into the “show'' on the score of hospitality. This Great Immoral Combination of Performing Animal? >, '!! be a great epoch in the history of Georgia and a marked event in the life of every man, woman aud child who may be able to witness the far-famed exhibition.. The proprietor, the ruling King of the Third Military, will be happy to greet large au diences to witness the wonderful perform ances of his educated animals, and assures the public that he is not to be held respon sible for any improprieties that may occur. He will endeavor to prevent accidents, but ivill not be responsible for any that may happen. —La Grange Reporter. General Grant s Position, —lt is ascertained from parties who have sc-en the testimony given by General Grant before tbe House Judiciary Committee, that it contains nothing to justify the theory of those who assert that the evidence proves him to be an extreme Radical. From the same source it is learned that, so far as the evidence of the General may have any political bearing, it leans rather to the side of the Conservative Republi cans. We learn from the Macon Journal <C Missenger, of Wednesday, that it bas re liable information to the effect that Gov* Jenkins has been ordered by Gen. Pope to hold himself in readiness to vacate the Gubernatorial chair at a moment's notice. The rumor is that James L. Seward is to be appointed as Ilia successor.

Montgomery, November 21, p. m.— The following is the article on the elective franchise as finally adopted by the Recon struction Convention, as a part ofthe new Constitution; Article —. Sec. 1. Every male person born in tho United States, and every male person who has been naturalized, or who has legally declared his intention to become a citizen of the United States, twenty-one years old or upward, who shall have re sided in this State six months next pre ceding the election and three months in tho county in which he offers to vote, ex cept as hereafter provided, shall be declar ed an elector, provided that no soldier or sailor or marine in the military or naval service of the United States shall hereafter acquire a residence by reason of being sta tioned on duty in this State. See 2. It shall be the duty of the Gen eral Assembly to provide from time to time for the registration of all electors, but the following classes of persons shall not be permitted to register, vote or hold office: I. Those who, during the late rebellion, inflicted or caused to be inflicted any cruel or unusual punishment upon any soldier, sailor, or marine, employee or citizen of the United States, or who in any other way violated tho rules of civilized war fare. 2d. Those who are or may be disfran chised by the proposed Constitutional Amendment, known as tlie fourteenth article, and the Act of Congress, passed March 2d, 1567, except such persons as have aided the plan of reconstruction pass ed by Congress and accepted the political equality of ail men before the law, provided the General Assembly shall have power to remove the disabilities incurred under this last clause. 3d. Those vtho shall have been convicted of treason, embezzlement of public funds, malfeasance in office, crime punishable by law with imprisonment in the penitenti ary, or bribery. 4th. No idiot or insane person-shall bo permitted to register or vote iu this State. Section 111. All persons, before register ing, must take and subscribe the following oath : “I do solemnly swear, or affirm, that I will support and maintain the Constitu tion and laws of the United States and the Union ; constitution and laws of the State of Alabama; that lam not excluded from registering by any oftheelauscs in section 2d-of this article ; that i will never coun tenance or aid in the secession of this State from the United States ; that I accept the civil and political equality of ail men, and agree not to attempt to deprive any person or persons, on account of race, color or previous condition, of any political or civil right, privilege or immunity enjoyed by any other class ot men; and, furthermore, that I will not, in any way, injure or coun- tenance in others any attempt to injure any person or persons on account of past or present support of the Governmant of the Turned States, the laws of the United States or the principle of the political and civil equality of all men, or cf affiliation with any political party.” Resolutions were adopted expressing entire satisfaction with the military admin istration of Major General John Pops, and tendering him the thanks of the people of Alabama for the firm and impartial course he has pursued. Three votes were given against these resolutions. Several branches of the Constitution were considered aud adopted, involving unimportant changes in the old Constitu tion 'except the creation of the office of Lieutenant Governor. The Convention will probably complete its work this week. Montgomery, November A3, p. m. — The Convention passed an Ordinance im posing an additional tax of ten per centum on tni taxes otherwise assessed on the taxable property in this State for the purpose of paying tue expenses oi the Convention, to be assessed and collected during the tax year ot lsCe. The bill of rights of' the Constitution provides, among other things, ‘‘That all men are created equal—that they are cn. dowed by their Creator with certain in alienable rights—that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; and that all persons and classes in this State who are or who may be declared citizens of the United States by the Con stitution thereof, are hereby declared citizens of the State cf Alabama, possess ing equal civil and political rights, and public privileges, without distinction of race, color or previous condition.” A section in the bill of rights defining treason, as passed, says: “No one shall be convicted of treason except on the testimony of two witnesses to the sates overt act, or upon his own confession in open court. The franchise article _ provides tnat those who shall be convicted of treason shall not exercise the right of suffrage. It is believed that all persons .who came within the twenty thousand dollar clause of President Johnson’s amnesty procla mation, and against whom proceedings were instituted in the State's District Court, who, on being pardoned by the President, had to appear in Court and enter the plea of pardon and guilty, are disfranchised by the new Constitution.— It this is correct, thirty or forty thousand whites are disfranchised at one blow in this State. 'EVENING SESSION. At the evening session of the Conven tion an amendment to the bill of rights was offered, that common carriers shali not make any discrimination on account of color between persons travelling on public conveyances, which caused great exeite | ment. Several black delegates delivered I inflammatory harangues, demanding entire ■ social equality, and the right to ride iu j sleeping cars,' Ac. Two. whites favored the | amendment—Griffin and Keffer—making violent speeches. Several whites opposed !it in strong speeches. After a heaved and protracted debate the subject was post j poned till Monday. From X’ Orleans.

Dent , Grant's brother-in-law—What Sort of a Nomir . nation the General is after —Secret Call fur a Union National Convention, From the Charleston Courier. New York, November 19. It is idle to talk of the Presidential problem without making direct reference to Gen. Grant. It is the position he as sumes on the leading political questions of the day which cannot be ignored by any party while the great contest is raging. Hence anything definite in regard to the General’s views cannot fail to ’ throw light on flic question as to who is to be the com ing man. Recent information on tins sub ject has just reached me from a member of the General’s own family, and as such may be regarded as entirely reliable. In one of my previous letters, I have already stated that General Grant is deter mined not to be bullied into the expression of political sentiments by the politicians, neither will he commit himself in favor of any party. At u conversation recently had with the General’s brother-in-law, General Dent, who resides with Grant’s family in Washington, the latter explained to some trustworthy friends the General’s position on public affairs. It then appear ed that Grant does not want a party nomi nation, not from the Republicans, and neither the Democrats, and this for the simple reason because lie does not really belong to either party. Long ago, in con versation with bis army officers, ho showed great sympathy for the Democratic party. During the war he was with the party that supported the war; previous to the meet ing of Congress, he placed himself upon record as desiring a settlement with the South without taking resource to negro suffrage; after Congress bud met, and seeing .the preponderous majority in favor of Republicanism, he again assented to what ho considered the will of the people, and favored the constitu tutional amendment. At that time he even went so far as to advise some gentle men from Arkansas, that the South should adopt the amendment, lest it might be compelled to accept something worse. Rut of one thing your readers may be as sured, Gencvui Grant is not in favor of reconstruction as it is going on in the South to-day, and he does not desire to see the black population have the upper hand there. lie is extremely averse to re ceiving a Presidential nomination from either a Republican or Democratic Na tional'Convention, and will not accept any unless it conies from a Convention of which delegates from all parties have been members. This fact has now been made known, and hence a secret call is now cir culating m several of the large cities, calling for a Union National Convention, the sole object of which is the nomination of General Grant upon the platform of his own life and services, without the least reference to cither Democratic or Republican principles. If the party which is to “backup” this Con vention is large enough, General Grant will accept the nomination, while he will decline any partisan nomination tendered him by a party Convention. His object is to settle the present political troubles of the country. Ho feels himself capa ble of doing it, and his friends desire no better than to see him signalize him self as the great pacificator, or as a second Washington. For that purpose, however, he desires to enter the White House untrammelled, unpledged, and lie says he cannot do it if he is to accept either the Democratic or Republican nomination, which of course, involves the acceptance of their respective principles. There exists thus great danger for either of the two parties in making their nom inations at too early a day ; for their very cageiness “to capture” is the political slangof the day. General Grant may not only damage the prospects of the party they represent, and may have the result of spoiling the broth, or, in other words, make it purely impossible for the General to follow up the track which he has care fully and deliberately decided to follow. You must, therefore, not be surprised to Lear before the 22d of February of a call for a.National Convention, to meet at Washington for the purpose of nominating General Grant for the Presidency; nor that General Grant should accept the nomination unpledged. Our merchants heie look forward with delight to the time that the General accepts the untrammeled, -non-partisan nomination. And t7iiatever the politicians may plot or counterplot be tween this time and the day of election, the business men of the country, who desire ! peace and quiet, will all support the plan j as chalked out above. * * * * Pink. 1 Fraternal Meeting. Gastello’s Menagerie promenaded through the streets yesterday and passed the Capitol about 12 33. So soon as the music was heard, Swaync s Menagerie lost all control of itself, the nc c ro portion, especially, show ing, signs of going out to see the monkeys ana elephant, and the white portion sidling toward the windows to get a glimpse of the “live lion let loose in the streets. ” Broad grins and intellectual smiles distended the mouths of the negro delegates and their feet kept time to the music. There was a general feeing of disgust that they couldn’t get out to sec the elephant. Elephant -N orris saw his brother elephant and asked mm how the land-office at Skowhcgan was. Gastello s elephant replied—“ Rather empty since you left.” Miller made on h‘3 hands the letters I. O. U., to which the elephant answered—“ They have stopped talking a pout it lately. ’ ’ llolfe pushed up to the window and asked the nigh mule whether he had seen his carpet bag in Selma. Simmons asked the lion whether the warrant for his arrest was still out in Colbert. Coon climed a pole and grinned at the men in armor. Griffin rushed to the gate, flung his arms around the jack ass and said —“It is, jt is, my long lost brother!” Haughey stood on the porch and admired the monkeys. Buckley peep ed from behind the curtains at the ladies on horseback. Keifer tried to steal the spots from the piebald horse. Major Sem ple, Alexander and Speed accepted the situation, and old Bingham rushed up breathless, held his nose with his Angers, and hollowed after the last jackass to know whether he had seen anything of Widow Ront! It was a jolly occasion, a fraternal re union to be long remembered. When the two bodies embraced, they might have been smelt a mile.— Montgomery Mail. M.

JOHN ERSKINE, JUBGE, PRESIDING.' November 22, 1867.—William B. DOTn, vs. Porter .Fleming and Robert A. Fleming, partners. Yhc plaintiff in this case, who is a citizen of South Carolina, alleges that the defendants were partners ; _ that they were warehousemen and commission mer chants in the city of Augusta, State of Georgia; that on the 7th of August, 1862, the plaintiffs stored seventy-five bales of cotton, of the value of $6,000, in the warehouse of the defendants ; that defend ants undertook to insure said cotton against damage er loss by fire; that defendants failed to insure said cotton ; that they re moved said cotton from one warehouse to another without the consent of the plain tiff, and contrary to the custom of ware housemen, and that said cotton was de stroyed by fire, and therefore he brings suit to recover the value of said cotton. The defendants deny that they were partners; they deDV that they undertook to insure said cotton; and they also deny the existence of the custom in reference to removing cotton from one warehouse to another, as alleged by plaintiff; and they aver that the plaintiff knew said cotton was removed and made no objection to such removal, and that the cotton was quite as safe in the warehouse to which it was removed as it was in the warehouse iu which it was originally stored. There being a conflict between the tes timony of the plaintiff and that of Porter Fleming, one of the defendants, for the purpose of showing that Porter Fleming testified without the bias of interest, coun sel for the defendants offered to prove by said Fleming that the partnership between himself and Robert A. Fleming was dis solved in September, 1862; that li. A. Fleming had released him from all liability on account of the firm, and that, in fact, he had no interest in the event of this suit. Counsel for the plaintiff objected to the introduction of this testimony, and the ob jection was sustained by the Court. Without concluding the testimony on the part of the defendants the Court adjourned until ten o’clock to-morrow morning. Lloyd and Linton Stephens, for plaintiff; Lawton and H. V. Johnson, for defend ants. GRAND JURY.

A LEADING RADICAL PAPER OBJECTS TO HIS TRIAL. There are people yet who think that something is to be gained or some principle established by the trial of Jefferson Davis, and day by day the approaching trial is announced. What is to bo accomplished hy !t ? Is it to convict him of treason? Who believes that a Virginia jury, legally drawn, can be bad to do that ? And if ho were convicted, what then? Why should he be punished when Lee and all the rest were discharged without conditions? Is this Government going, 'to revive the Jewish scape goat institution, and pile all the sins of the rebellion on one man in order to cancel them all in the lump by a line ? Or is this trial to be had in order to decide whether .secession is a right? Think of this Government, after calling out a million of men to put down the rebellion, submitting its right to do so to a jury of twelve men in a Rebel State. And what if the jury should acquit him? J hen it will have beeu decided at law that secession is right, and that the Govern ment committed a crime by resisting it; and as an illegal order is no defence to t.iio agent, ah our soldiers who trrried on the war will have been found guilty of murder. \v nat a splendid consummation this would be tor our imbecile oflieiousness in de manding a trial of Jefferson Davis. A jury trial is not fit for the head of a great belligerent power that carried 011 a terrible war tor four years. The fight of the na tion to subdue a rebellion is not a thin" to be submitted to any jury. It is not lit to execute a penalty on one man out of a bel ligerent power that put half a million of armed men in the field, and after we have discharged all the rest. Jefferson Davis is a fit subject for John son s pardon. _ This ignominy may serve in the place 01 penalty. We know nothing more humiliating that we can do to him, uian to have him owe his discharge to Johnson s pardon. Let him have this, and let us stop the farce of a trial which is announced as close ut hand.— Cincinnati Gazette , 15 th.

Columbus Sun & Times. Who Wrote “Cotton is King?” This inquiry has been made in our presence, says the iSew York Express. Ihe phrase “Cotton is King” has been attributed to the late Governor Hammond, of south Carolina. This is an orror It originated with the author of a book bear ing that title, first published in 1855, and advocating the preservation of the Union as essential to the prosperity of the coun try. Many were urging that the South had become a burden upon the North, and that, “by kicking the South out of the Union,” the North would become vastly more prosperous and powerful. The author presented the economical rela tions of the two sections, in their true light, for the first time. The exports of tne country were shown so as to represent the several commodities entering into our foreign commerce. From this it appeared that the North never supplied, of "the pro ducts of the soil, more than about $35,- 000,000 to $45,000,000 in value, while the South supplied more than thrice that amount. To dissolve the Union, the author argued, would so diminish our foreign commerce as to be ruinous to the country. Dissolution, he therefore con cluded, would be treason to the best interests of the nation. But he went lurther, and demonstrated that, irom the results of emancipation, everywhere else, the abolition of slavery, in its economical results, would be quite as ruinous as disso lution upon our foreign commerce. The author of that work is Professor David Christy, then of Cincinnati, but now of New York City. It will be deter mined, in a. few years, whether hid deduc tions were not correct. Recent Election—-Vote op Illinois. —Though the election in this State on the sth inst. was for local officers, and the vote naturally smal!, some indication is fur nished of tho change in public sentiment going on all over tho North. Had the election been for State officers, it may be safely said, the Democratic majority would have approached its farmer status under Democratic dynasties. We give the fol lowing returns from counties, which, though incomplete, presents all the ma tenal at present available. From 53 eoun ties, a little over one-half, and comprising the heaviest Radical localities, being in the northern and central portions of the State, the returns foot up Democratic 56,910, Radical 71,514, leaving a Radical balance of 14,604. This will be overcome with a Democratic margin to spare when Egypt is heard from. East fali Logan carried .the State by upward of 56,000 majority, now there will be a few thousands major ity the other way.
