Morn arose and twilight fell. Still the hones lay bi< ached and bare : Midnight brought the panther’s yell Bounding through his human lair, Till above the World of Clay Ages seemed to wear away. On my spirit came a aound Like Hie gush of desert springs Bursting o’er the burning ground— “Prophetof the King of Kings, Hhall not Israel live again ? Shall not these dry bones be men !” Then J stood and prophesied, “i orue together, bone to bone.” Sudden as tbe star my tide, Thick as leave* by tempest strewn. Heaving o’er the mighty vale, Shook the remnants cold and pale 1 Flesh to flesh was clinging now; There was seen the warrior limb, There was seen the princely brow— But the stately eye was dim ; Mailed in steel, or robed in gold, All was corpse-like, all was cold. Then the voice was beard once more “Prophet, call the winds of Heaven !” As along the threshing floor C'ball before the gale is driven, At the blast, with shout and clang, On their feet the myriads sprang! Flashed to heaven the visioned shield, Whirlwind-axe, and lightning-sword. Crushing on a bloody field Syria's chariot-, Egypt’s horde, Till on Zion’s summit shone Israel s angel-guarded Throne. Then the Vision swept away; Thunders rolled o’er Kartii and Heaven, Like the thunders of that day * |When Earth's pillars shall lie riven ; Hear I not the rustling wings? Art thou coming. King of Kings? Two Rosebuds. BY WM. BARTLETT. The leaves of this old book enclose The remnants of a withered rose That outre was whiter than the snows. It nestled in a maiden’s hair, The choicest gem that she could wear, So young, so happy, and so fair. i, in a loving, childish way, Hid cherish it, and fondly lay It whore it still is sweet to-uay ; That it should sanctify the place, In memory brightened by the grace That lingered on my playmates’ face ; And kindle in my heart aglow That years to come should seldom know, A memory of the long ago ! But dreamed not that a future year Should see another rosebud near Tne one that long had slumbered here.

There must be some other merit Higher yet than these for me ! Something greater far must outer Into life’s majestic span ; Fitted to create and centre True nobility in man ! What is noble ? ’Tie the finer Portion of our mind snd heart, Linked to something still diviner Than mere language can impart ; Ever prompting - ever seeing Home improvement yet to plan ; To uplift our follow-being, And, like man, to feel for man ! What is noble ? Is the sabre Nobler than the humble spade ? There's a dignity in labor Truer than o’er pomp arrayed ! He w: o seeks the mind's improvement, Aids the world, In aiding mind ; livery great, commanding movement Serves not one—hut all mankind. O’er the forge's heat and ashes, o'er tlie engine’s iron head, Where the rapid shuttle Hushes, And the spindle whirls its thread; There is labor lowly tending Each requirement of the hour, There is genius still ext, tiding Mid thedust, and speed, and clamor, Os the loom shed and tlio mill ; 'Midst the dank of wheel and hammer tlrout results are growing slill 1 Though, too oft, by Fashion’s eroutures, Work aud workers may lie blamed, Commerce need not bide its features !

Two suitors came for Susan's hand, Appealing to li«r sire ; Hpokeof their loves and breadth of land, Before a hickory lire ; The old man heard them long and woll, In his old fashioned way, And looking where the ashes fell, Thought, “What would Susan say?” The one ho told of large estate, Os Helds and acres wide, Ami Susan was the bright-eyed mate He would claim for his bride. The old man eyed this suppliant vain, With gems of brightest lay, And looking in the lire again, Thought, “What will Susan say ?” His sinews showed no signs of Coil, Nor ot the wealth acquired, No proof that from the teeming soil Or labor else attired; “Wealth might take wings, and doing so Might speedy fly away,” And the old man gazing in the glow Thought, “What will Susan say t” The other had but his good heart, The stout arm at his side, Aud setting all things else apart, Claimed Susan for his bride; The old man (eared that these might tire, idle was a life-long way. And looking in the hickory fire, Thought, "\\ hat will Susan say ?” Yet there was work for all to do, And more homes yet must grow. And men should their own fortunes hew, W bile struggling here below ; He’d build the root above his head, 'Twas many a year away, Thought of the dear wife long since dead* And “What would Susan say f” 'file old man rublied his shriveled hands, Audoouusef and the matter o’er, The suitor with bis spacious lauds— The other poor—no more; lie dreamed tne years of love aback, I.ong ere his IJ. ks were gray ; Traced In the fire his weary track And—“ What would Susan say?" So Susan came aud stood beside This sire of many years ; She was his care and love and (wide, For her his hopes and fears ; And by ihe hearth upon whose stone Her life grew bright and gav. He took her baud, and in low tone, Asked ; “What does Susan say ?’’ And Susan then, amid them ail, Her suitors and her sire ; There made her choice without recall, As they gaged iu the fire ; ‘Twas for the one whose highest aiiu Was but to work his way, And the answer with a welcome came.

The Managers supjtorted the resolution ; by a report, the reading of which required ; over an hour, with private telegrams and evidence, mainly that of Thurlow Weed, \ showing that a scheme of buying votes for acquittal was canvassed in New York, and that suspicious telegrams and persons i passed between the parties here and in New York. Intimate relations were also shown to exist between the counsel and friends of the President and the party who canvassed the purchase of votes in New York. The report claims that the Managers have other evidence, but at present only fee! justified in presenting such as will justify the arrest of Woolley. The House adjourned. SENATE.

Very respectfully. Geo. VV. Philips, Jr., Provision and Produce Broker, Letter from Judge Aldrich on Democ racy in South Carolina. Augusta, Ga , May 25, 1868. My Dear Sir: When I read the pro ceedings ot the Democratic Convention, in Columbia, I remarked to one ol the Delegates from Barnwell, that I thought it particularly unfortunate ior us, that the ( invention had expressed any opinion on the subject of negro suffrage. It is on this very question that tbe Democracy and Conservatives of the North will do bat::e with the Radical revolutionary party ti at ha * - .zed the government. To strike out now from the j iatforni the last plank upon which the party can stand, seems to me the most impolitic thing that the Con ventiou could have done. I cannot con ceive of political equality without social equality, the one is a sequence of tho other. We must go iuto this fight with the party banner that this is “ The White -h m s Government. It is more import ant to u- in the South than to the friends of the Constitution in the North, and we uot only weaken our cause, but give a fatal blow to the cause of Constitutional liberty, by yielding the principle. I suppose no delegate will feel himself bound by this declaration of the State Con vention. I certainly would not. Ido not expect to be able to attend the Democratic Convention in New York, next July, al though it would afford me great pleasure to be able to do so, but I am too poor to get away from home. lours, truly and respectfully, „ „ A. P. Aldrich. -ir. IvHETT. {Charleston Mercury. Personal. —Hon. A. H. Stephens ar- 1 rived in the city on Saturday evening, and is the guest of Hon. Thomas G. Simms.

A federal cavalry soldier who had de serted his command, now garrisoning Dah lonega, and had been airested, attempted to escape the other day and was fired upon by the guard and killed. Frorr* the Cdumbtu Sun. The Renewal of Outrage and Intimida tion. Within ten days past the Military Gov ernor of District No. 3 has endeavored to put this immediate section of his unhappy domain under mortal terror. Two white men and two negroes of the original parties who were arrested some weeks since without cause and discharged with out accusation, have been arrested and immured in the cells of Fort Pulaski. On yesterday two other white citizens were arrested and are to share the dungeons of those who had gone before. Though the military authorities have flatly refu.-ed to assign any cause for these proceedings, it is well ascertained that they are the in ! eeption ofa fresh attempt to ferret out the murderers of Ashburn. It is further known in this community, and we have strong reasons for the belief, that nobody is more fully aware of the fact than Gen. Meade and his subordinates at this point, that the parties seized and incarcerated : cannot be connected with that unfortunate 1 transaction. We have the very best reasons for stating that these arrests have been concocted in the ‘‘still” sittings of : the Loyal League, and that the_ suspicions i advanced are of so flimsy aud improbable a character as would fail to arrest the i serious consideration of any military com mission that may be formed of men, noto riously ignorant of Law, the rules of evidence, and entertaining a supreme disre gard of the lives and liberties of any one, save themselves. Two debased strumpets, j one black the other white (we blush to state it), have been taken in eharge and : sent to Savannah to swear against the par- ties arrested, or against any others that it may seem desirable shall be treated to a similar fate, hinder this statement of facts, we feel that we should be criminally derelict of duty, if we should fail, in be half of this entire community, to brand these late proceedings as among the most infamous and unwarrantable that have marked the era of military rule in the South. To remain longer silent would be but to add to the intimidation and terror sought to be inspired by these acts, and to acquiesce in the reports that will be disseminated throughout the North, that General Meade, by superior energy and sagacity, has been enabled to lay at the right doors the responsibility of the raking off one of the most obnoxious pests that ever afflicted a civilized community. Ami we should but half perform our duty if we should hesitate to appeal to superior power for an immediate, active and effect ive interference with these unjust, out rageous and illegal proceedings. In behalf, therefore, of this community which, under unparalieled provocations and insults, has faithfully adhered t.o all the duties in ; cumbent upon good citizens, and which is now placed at the mercy of prostitutes and vagabonds, we protest against the course of ! General Meade. And in the name of the ; same, we earnestly invoke the attention ; and aid of President Johnson. Solemnly assertiug our own and the belief of honest and decent persons in this county, of the j entire inuoeence of all the parties referred ! to, of any connection with the Ashburn ! affair, we earnestly beg of Mr. Johnson to interpose his authority to prevent ar raignment and trial of these defenceless \ parties before a military commission, three : hundr and miles away from the witnesses i who could establish their innocence,against the false and suborned testimony ot two beastly drabs. Further, in behalf of the people of dis' trict No. 3, who of late have had cause grievously to feel the mailed hand of the vain and incompetent man in whose hands their lives and liberties have Deen unwise ly and unfortunately placed, we pray for his prompt removal. This appeal is not made without strong cause. It is time that the bitterness, the indignation, the deep resentment excited in the hearts of the people by a weak and incompetent ruler should cease. A peace ful, law-abiding and defenceless people should be protected against suborned per jurers and prostitutes, and the Chief Mag istrate of the country should see to it that citizens shall not be driven to desperation by wrong and persecution. VYe beg of Mr. Johnson to recall the fact, that the Supreme Court of this coun try has solemnly declared that Military Commissions are unauthorized and illegal in times of peace, and this the law of the land he is in duty bound to see executed in letter and in spirit. We pray him further to remember that to the people of the scuth he is indebted for much of the strength that enabled him to pass through his late peril, which threatened him and the Government.— Though the courage and integrity of a few men in a moment of need brought at) ordeal never experienced by any of his predecessors, it is not going beyond the bounds of reason to say, that the unani mous backing afforded him by the people ot the South, their stern adherence to their plighted faith, their stubborn support of his constitutional prerogatives, their respect for law and obedience to authority, were among the most powerful elements that contributed to the triumph of principle people he owes at least all the protection that lies within his power to extend. FllOll WASHINGTON. THE IMPEACHMENT PLOT. From the Sew Tort Herald. Washington, May 22, 1868.—The most recently reported development of the impeachment plot is that which is suppos ed to have been contrived by Butler, Stan ton and Pomeroy, to set a trap tor Cooper, j the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, ! aud other friends of the President. It is said the worthy trio mentioned put their heads together and came to the conclusion ' there were some weak mortals among the advisers of the Executive who could be induced to commit such an act and pre j vail upon the President to sanction it as would form a basis for another impeach ment article of irresistible force, and one bound to insure conviction. Cooper testified that Pomeroy signified to him in a written letter, through his brother-in-law Gaylord, that for forty thousand dollars he would control four votes and his own for acquittal. Pomeroy denied to-day, in the following letter addressed to the National Intelligencer, that he ever wrote or au thorized the writing of such a letter : Sir—l see in the Intelligencer of this morning what purports to be a letter of mine produced and sworn to by Colonel Cooper, as follows: — Senate Chamber. Sir—l will in good faith carry out any arrangement made with my brother-in-law, Willis Gaylord, to which I am a party. S. C. Pomeroy. In reply I will state that I never wrote nor authorized the writing of the above, and that the whole is au entire fabrication. S. C. Pomeroy. This evening Pomeroy was asked for an explanation, but had none to give beyond the mere denial of not having written such a letter as Cooper had sworn to. Cooper’s charge was very explicit and receives strong color of support from a document which will be very soon made public, of anterior date to the letter in question, signed with the genuine autograph of S. C. Pomeroy, and promising in case a cer tain office was placed at the disposal of a certain friend of Pomeroy’s that he would support the administration, vote for all j nominations and vote against impeach ment if it ever came up before the Senate. Either the story must be true '.hat he tried to exchange his opposition to the Presi dent for certain executive favorsor that he conspired with Stanton and Butler to draw ' the friends, into a trap, in the hope of drawing the President after them. The denial he makes of never having written the letter is a very sale one, for the reason that Gaylord, to whom he gave it | to show to Cooper, never allowed it out of j his hands, and, having failed to accomplish i its object, was in all likelihood torn up, j thus destroying all trace of the transaction, j Bntler, if he was really sincere in advancing Radical interests, should never have put such a question to Cooper as drew forth S- C. Pomeroy, the damaging answer it did. Thad. Stevens was very much annoyed, and said \ this morning that all their work was un done by this course of examination ; tha none but a tyro in law would propound j such a question to a witness, and no cop perhead oould wish for a better answer than wbat was recorded. When the Senate assembles on Monday the Conservatives intend to call for a com mittee of investigation to sift this matter to the bottom, and the general impression even with many Radicals is that Pomeroy cannot escape the penalty of expulsion on the evidence as it stands. THE WITNESSES EXAMINED. The witnesses examined to-dav were Colonel Henderson, an Indian agent. Perry Fuller, Sunset Cox. Sam Ward, Treasurer Spinner and J. F. Leggett. Cox testified he was at a dinner given to the President’s counsel by \\ oolley, but nothing beyond some of Joe Miller's jokes revamped by Cox could be recollected by the witness. Henderson, Fowler and Ward refused to i tell what they did with the money they drew out of bank. It was used, as they ; said, for purposes wholly foreign to the inquiry on foot and was no business ot the ! committee’s. ANOTHER REVOLUTIONARY PROJECT. Among tue other enterprising projects of the revolutionary cabal here in \\ ash- ! ingtou is said to be a bill drawn up some weeks ago on the assurance of conviction being certain, but now temporarily laid aside, for such a reconstruction of the Su preme Court as would get rid of Chief j Justice Chase aud, under the rule of Ben ] Wade, place Stanton at the head of the highest judiciary tribunal This matter is now slumbering, but if the President be convicted on Tuesday it will be very quick ly revived. OPINION OK SENATOR FOWLER ON IM- i PEACHMEXT. Senator Fowler, of Tennessee, filed his j opinion upon the eleven articles of impeach- < ment to-day. It is quite lengthy, cover ing about fifty pages of legal cap paper, about cr.e-half of which is devoted to the first article, and the argument against the second article occupies eleven pages mere. The paper is very ably prepared, and pre sents an overwhelming array of the most powerful arguments “gainst every article in the list. The filing of this opin ion leaves only Senator Ross of the seven Republicans required to defeat con viction uncommitted upon the remaining ten articles. ANOTHER NATIONAL RANK. AUTHORIZED TO ACT A-S A UNITED STATES DEPOSITORY. The Secretary of the Treasury has just authorized the National Bank of Law rence, Kansas, to transact business as a depository of public moneys, the neces sary security having been deposited with the United States Treasurer. This brings the Dumber ofGovernment depositories up to 427. Colfax and Bade—Who Writes for the New fork Tribune 7—Grant Discour aged. Dispute!, to tful/ev York Washington, May 14, 1868.—The Herald $ ex posure of Colfax’s proposition to IV ade has produced much sensation here, and the shameless denial of the fact in the Radical organ of New York may yet lead to an investigation such as Mr. Broomall proposed. VS r ade himsc-lf author ized the statement that Colfax had called upon him and suggested his resignation as President pro tern of the Senate, as a means of procuring votes for impeachment; or rather of removing objections to it. The consideration offered for this retirement was to be the withdrawal of Colfax and Wilson as competitors for the Vice Presi dential nomination at Chicago, while their rewards were to be the White House for Colfax and the Presidency of the Senate for Wilson, if the game succeeded. Now that it is certain to fail, Colfax pretends to be very innocent. But Wade dun't let him off, and the truth of history will be vindi cated. It is quite easy to contradict what was never alleged 1 did not state that Colfax was against impeachment; quite the con trary, for all his plans of selfish ambition were staked on conviction. Everybody knows that here. The furious assaults upon Trumbull, j Fessenden, Grimes, Fowler, Henderson, and the like, charging them with corrup tion aud bribery, have provoked great in dignation in all circles, and will, undoubt edly, end in a mighty reaction, which must sweep the J acobins out of power. What is curious about these charges is, that they come from the most notorious members of the lobby. A Bohemian writer for the Radical organ in New York says that he wrote most of the violent articles for Gat paper, impeaching the integrity of the Senators in question. Considering that he was the lobby agent of Jay Cooke & Cos. duriog the war, and is now the lobby manager of the Pacific Railroad, of the Iron Tariff League in New Yotk, ofa steel eompany, and connected with all the float ing jobs about Congress, and ali the venal combinations, he is cAtainly the right man to impugn the motives of honorable Sena tors. Grant is much discouraged at the turn of things, and would not accept the Chi cago nomination, except under a sense of honor. He feels committed alter having sanctioned the declarations made by Wash burne, llawliugs, Forney and others, and from having openly advocated impeach ment, under the persuasion of bad ad visers, who assured him conviction was a sure thing. He believes the Republican party has gone to the dogs, and that its defeat in November is inevitable. Wheat Crop in Georgia.— We are told, says the Macon Telegraph , that be tween Macon and Atlanta, on tlie line of the Macon and Western Railroad, wheat is a great deal injuied by rust. North of Atlanta, however, it is represented to be very fine, and the yield will be abundant. Clear out the old crop and prepare for the new. The Polk County Farmer’s Club print a report in the Rome Courier of Tuesday, in which they say; . We visited, on the 22d, some of the principal farms in Cedar Valley, with the view of seeing what the wheat prospect now is. This is the unanimous report; All the wheat has the rust —most of it badly—but as yet confined to tlie leaf. Tbe promise was very fine up to the time of the late heavy rains. The estimate of average yield, of the crops examined (some of the best in the valley) is six bushels per acre. From all the information we can get from other sections of the country, the average will be considerably less. Note, wheat growers, the prospect for a full yield is good nowhere, so far as we are informed. Let us hear from other farmers from other counties, as to the wheat prospects. .T TANARUS, Sun,a Triv Sm-mwn Vybpkc Company— Suit for sl2, goo—verdict for the Plaintiff of $10,700. —Yester- day the case cf J. L. Shea against the Southern Express Company was heard aud decided in the Bibb Superior Court. In October, 1865 Mr. Shea purchased a stock of goods in New York for his Mer chant Tailoring Establishment, and had them shipped by the Adams’ Express Company via Savannah to Macon. At Savannah the Adams tranferred the ship ment to the Southern, which Company put them on Liard the steamboat Savan nah and started them up the river. The Central Railroad vvas not in operation. On the river the Savannah was run into and sunk by another vessel, and the goods almost ruined. Suit was at once commenced for the re covery of $12,0U0, their full value, but the case was delayed from Court to Court un til yesterday, when, all parties being S resent, a jury was sworn in. Cobb & ackson, O. A. Lochrane and A. O. Bacon appeared for the plaintiff, and Judge Wm. Dougherty, of Atlanta, and the Messrs. Nisbets for the defence. The facts brought out on the examina tion of the witnesses were substantially as above stated. The legal point involved was as to the responsibility of a common i carrier for good& placed in its charge. The charge of Judge Cole and the decision of the Jury were that the Express Company was, in this case, responsible, arid a ver dict was rendered of slo,Too for Mr. Shea. —Macon Jour. & Messenger. A meeting of the Board of Directors of the Nashville aud Chattanooga Road was held in Nashville on Friday, the 15th inst., at which a compromise was effected between the Company, on the one part, and Messrs. Stevenson, Gleaves and Cole, former officers of the road, on the other part. It will be remembered that the latter parties took the rolling stock of the road South, when Nashville feli to the hands of the Federal forces, in 1862, and operated it during the war. When the road was restored to the Company, suit was entered agaiust Messrs. Stevenson, Gleaves and Cole for, we believe, one million of dollars, it being claimed that the proceeds during the time they had possession of the rolling stock reached that amount. The matter has been in litiga tion until last Friday, when, on condition that the defendants pay the Company thirty thousand dollars, it was agreed that the suit should be withdrawn and no further proceedings instituted. Death of Gen. John W. Gordon.— Gen. John W. Gordon, an old and univer sally known citizen, died in this city yester day afternoon, at 2 o’clock. He was born on the 13th day of June, 1796, aud hence only lacked eighteen days of being seventy two years of age. He had come down to us from the eighteenth century, and had seen JLe American Republic when it.? now fertile lands were a virgin wilderness. No man now living in Middle Georgia wa3 better known. He was tor a long time a citizen of Jones county, which he often represent ed in the Legislature. Forseveral months his health has been very poor, and although hisimmediate friends and kindred expected his early demise, the news of his death will sadden many hearts. After a long and an eventful life he has at last been gathered to his children and friends gone before. May his soul rest in peace ! —Mason Journal <£• Messenger. Despite the vast army or men who have been wounded by the bullet, but not killed, the ease of young Prince Alfred, who was shot the other day by a Fenian in Australia, is so singular that it deserves special mcn j tiou. The ball, according to the Medical i Press and Circular, entered the back half j an inch from the spine, and if it had taken the course which, in nine hundred and ninety-nine cases out of a thousand it would have taken, it could not have avoided piercing the heart, lung, diaphragm an! : intestines, as it started in a downward di rection. But it seems to have struck a rib, j the ninth, glanced off and traversed, a dis i ranee of twelve and a half iuches on the outside of the rib, lodging finally under the skin of the abdomen.

The telegraph informs us that Stanton has vacated the War Office. This is one of the first, we hope it will not be'the last, fruits cf the impeachment fiasco. Stanton would not have dared, iui=erable hound though he is, to have retained his place as a confidential adviser of a man whom he hated and had betrayed had be not been urged to do so by the dirty crew headed Ly Butler and Bingham. The indignation and condemnation of the respiectable members of the Republican party —gentlemanlike Sherman, Trumbull and Fessenden—added to the execration which his course had elicited from the re spectable people of the entire country— would have driven him in disgrace and shame from the position which an hon- orable man . would have left upon the , slightest intimation that bis further ser- I i vices were not needed. At last he is gone. ! Like the great felons of other dais, whose deeds of rapine and blood have made their j names famous in the world’s history, this i living disgrace of the niueteeth ceutury — j this foul blot upon the American escutch eon—will sink at once to the uttermost depths of infamy, and leave upon his name, for all time to come, a stain as deep and damning as that which clings to Nero or Robespierre. The President, having get rid of this creature, should not pause in the good work. There are thousand of men hold ing fat offices throughout the country who are daily using the patronage thus re ceived in the interest of the Radical party. Hundreds of them in the South are using the public money for party purposes, and with the funds, wrung from the hard earn ings of our people, arc corrupting and de bauching the very fountain of justice. We hope Mr Johnson has learned something from the recent past. If he falters now—if he pauses asingle moment — | his enemies will recover from the shock. | given them by the failure of impeachment, ! and will gather fresh strength from his | hesitation and inaction. He must not go j hat#.—onward should be his watchword. More ofthe Impeachment Humbug. Three new articles are to be submitted by ! Mr. Stevens, aud if he caunot get them j adopted by tbe Managers, he will submit them to the House. Mr. Stevens is court- I dent that he can frame one or two articles j on whieh it will not be impossible to convict. ] When the articles were tirst under consid- j oration by the Managers, Mr. Stevens was in favor of making them far stronger on many points; but he was overruled. The probabilities now are that the house will adopt his ideas. Several of the Managers are opposed to the taking of the vote next week. The developments that have been made in the Managers’ investigation are of the utmost importance.— New York Tri bune. It seems that Greeley, Forney, Butler, Stevens & Cos. arc determined to make an other effort to slop the needful and neces sary legislation of the country in order that old Thad may be permitted to ventilate his spleen against the President and his malig nity against the Southern people, in an other attempt to impeach Mr. Johnson, lie announces his ability to “frame one or two articles upon which it will be impossi ble not to convict.” With quite as much positiveness he an nounced in the House of Representatives, early in the late'impeachment muddle, that his article, the 11th of the series, contained charges upon which “the Senate was bound to convict.” We have seen that the Senate, acting under solemn oath® did not convict on that article, aud we believe that there is not the slightest probability that the Court of Impeachment would convict Mr. Johnson for a “high crime or misde meanor’ ’ for any acts of his administra tion. This impeachment excitement is fomented and kept up now ior no other purpose than to keep the public mind in a state of feverish excitement and anxiety during the approaching canvass, in order that the Radicals may make capital out ol it. We said yesterday Impeachment is dead. We repeat it to-day, and add that with it has died the future hopes, ambi tions and aspirations of all those who have ; been actively concerned in it. The Crops. We are gratified to learn that the warm, fine weather of the past few days has greatly benefited the crops and that the prospect, is muou ueuer tor a tair yield than it has been. We hear, however, that on the light grey lands the stands of cotton are very imperfect, and. that the youug plants are still unhealthy, and on many plantations dying out. On the heavy rolling red lands the stands are bet ter and the cotton begins to grow finely. This crop is- generally reported as being badly “in the grass.” Corn is small but is more promising than the cotton. There has been an unu sually large area of this crop planted and very little apprehension is felt that the yield may not be sufficient for tbe wants of the country. The experience of ’65 and ’66 has been of’ great service to our agri cultural friends in inducing them to plant largely in provision crops, and the valua ble lessons of those disastrous years we hope will not he soon forgotten. The true policy is to plant large grain crops. The wheat crop all through Middle and Eastern Georgia has been seriously dam aged by tbe heavy rains which have fallen during the month of April and the begia ing of tbe present month. The rust has made its appearance on the wheat very generally and in some localities has cut off the crop at least one half, and we have heard of afe w cases in which the damage has been even more than that. On the red lands of Greene, Wilks, Elbert and j Oglethorpe, we learn that the crop has ; suffered comparatively but little, and that ! a fine yield in those counties will be gener- ! ally obtained. We heard that the harvest ing has already begun in Wilks and that in ! the course of next week it will be garnered, j The oat crop is reported to be good though in some localities this crop has also been injured by the excessive rains Upon the whole the prospect, while not decidedly flattering, is indicative of a fine yield and a moderate remuneration for the labor bestowed. South Carolina, The following-circular has been issued by the Central Executive Committee of the Democratic party of South Carolina : From the State Central Executive Committee.—The Central Executive Com mittee have received information that each State will be entitled in tbe National Democratic Convention,to double as many delegates as it has representatives in Con gress. This will give to this State twelve delegates; four from ihe State at large, and eight from the Congressional Districts. The recent Convention here appointed but six delegates, and the Executive Commit tee do not feel authorized to fill up the delegation, nor do they desire to do so. In order that our State may have hei full representation, some action must betaken by the people. The Central Club in each Election District might send to the Execu tive Committee thename3 of one delegate for the Congressional District in which it is located, and two tor the State at large. From the names thus selected, the Com mittee wii! appoint tiiree gentlemen, hav ing the highest number of votes. Should this plan be deemed impracticable or in expedient, it will be necessary to call a Convention, for the purpose of filling up our delegation, This matter is brought before the people, in order that some ex pression of their wishes may be given. The Democratic Clubs throughout the State arc- requested to respond to the Ex ecutive Committee promptly. Wade Hampton, j J. P. Thomas, j Jos. Daniel Pope, ) „ ... F. W. McMaster, j Committee. Wm. M.

These Forney pro poses to add to “the Senatorial blacklist, ’ ’ and according to Forney “their loss is, in fact, a gain.” The presumed object of the expulsion of leaders and journals is to reduce the Radical party to the smallest limits, so that it can be conveniently handled during the coming campaign. A Candid Confession.—The editor of the La Crosse Democrat asserts that Bout well told him in Washington City, a few weeks ago, that impeachment was “a po litical necessity—a piece of political strat- 1 egy, which if unsuccessful insures our de- I feat in the Presidential contest J ” ' A Letter from General Forrest. We take from the Memphis Acalanehe the subjoined letter from General Forrest. It is so sensible and so uianly that we are sure that it will meet with general appro bation. The idea that the best and bravest men of the South should withdraw them selves lrom all participation in the couuoils of the Democratic party, while all the negroes and vagrants are invited to lend their support to the Radicals, is simply preposterous. If the Union is to be re constructed, the true men of the South must take part in the work, or consent to remain in their native laud the mere sub jects or slaves of a section. We do Dot be lieve the Democrats and Conservatives of the North are prepared to ask any such cowardly and base concessions. Baltimore Gazette. Nashville, May 25, 1868. Editors Avalanche—Gents : An influ ence is at work in this State as I have discovered since my recent departure from Memphis, to preclude any participation by the late Confederate soldiers in the coming Convention of (he Democracy of Tennessee, to be held at Yv ashington on the 9ih of June, and in the National Democratic Convention, to be held at New York on the 4th of July. It docs not amount to a purpose to ar bitrarily do this thing ; but is felt in efforts to induce every one who took any part in the recent struggle of the Confederacy for independence to deeline attending at these assemblies upon pretended grounds of ex pediency, and to submit the representation of Tennessee at New York to men who were known to be for the Union. Upon consultation with many of my late associates in the war, 1 have concluded to advise against any further political emas culation of ourselves in the party move ments of the State. We are already sufficiently proscribed in the constitution and statutes which now govern the State, against our consent, the proscription of which have, through the. mendacious hostility of our legislative ene mies, been added to time and again,' until now we barely live under the accumulated weight of disfranchisement and oppression. Shall we superadd, by our own action, to those proscriptions and exorcisms of our selves from ail participation in the assent blies of the State and National Democracy, and publish to the world a confession that we are too unworthy to intrude ourselves into the councils of the party? The Na tional Democratic party, through its com mittee, have invited us to take part in the Convention which is to assemble at New York on the 4th of July. It prescribes no test oaths, no qualifications dependent upon the part we have taken iu the late war, but, like a true constitutional party, it opens its doors and invites all who may choose to come, without reference to the past. To suggest, then, an answer to so catholic an invitation, that we who are the true representatives of the greater portion of the constitutional men of the cltate feel ourselves unworthy to soil the deliberations of that Convention with our presence, would exhibit us in an attitude of servile degradation that, I trust, wo have not reached as yet. In this view of the case then it is my advice (given from a sense or duty, and against a reluctance which is averse to any personal display of myself in a matter of this kind), to all my comrades to participate iu the county meetings, and to send up full delegations to Nashville on the 9th of June, composed of good and true men, without refereuca to the divisions which were made by the war. The only hope of restoration of a good Government in this country is in the suc cess of the National Democracy in the next Presidential campaign. 1 trust my late comrades will not, from expediency or other motives, absent themselves from a participation in the political exercises which arc to result in the choice of stand ard-bearers, made with a view to so patri otic and desirable an end. So far as lam personally concerned, T have no desire to take any part iu politics, nor to occupy any political positiou whatever; but I do not wish to see my State represented by men whose only claim to public favor is the dexterity with which they took either side of the question in the late war, as in terest dictated, and who bank upon it as their only capital for popular support. N. B. Forrest. Special Washington Correspondence of the Chronicle is Sentinel. Washington, I). (J., May 24, 1868. Dear Chronicle & Sentinel: —There has never been, perhaps, a period within the history of Presidential nominations when one has fallen so flat, or produced so little enthusiasm among its own party adherents as that of the • Chicago nominees. Not eveua gun has been Bred in honor of the nomination, or an enthusiastic demonstra tion made by the friends of the nominccsany where throughout the length and breadth of the land. From Maine to California the thing has fallen still-born. TEq ..mOfi/lntn,,.. -f Hofeixt iop«oe«B . their spirits, and paralyzes their energies. Not even here, in the National Capital, overflowing with a contraband population and hireling partisans, and the residence of the candidates, cOuld they get up even a respectable serenade to these gentlemen in honor of their nomination ; nor could the maiden speech ol General Grant, which he has been twelve months engaged in prepariug, and with the pomp of the So phomore, and the ignorance and diffidence of one whom mere circumstances have brought to the surface, diffuse the motly crowd with a spark of genuine enthusiasm, for so common place was that speech that even his sable friends were disappointed. What a speech ! “Being entirely unac customed to public speaking, and without any desire to cultivate tha power,” clos ing his remarks as he turned his back upon the crowd, with, “I do not know whether they heard that or not.” (Laughter.) And this the man for President of the United States ? Never, no, never. The times and circumstances demand tnen of the highest talent and statesmanship, and the American people are awake to these necessities, and will spurn the men of ig norance and duplicity who are placed be fore them for these high posts of honor and trust, claiming their votes upon the grounds of partisan necessity or availa bility, while virtue, patriotism, and the ; highest order of talent are now requisite to save the Constitution and perpetuate | the institutions of our fathers. Upon the Democratic party must devolve the duty of saving the country and wrest ing it from the. hands of the Jacobin cabal, j who, through ignorance, robbery , and mis- j rule, have brought our American institu- i tions upon the verge of annihilation. ; Wise councils should preside in the selec tion of their standard-bearers in the en- j suing Presidential cuutest. There should be no eollisions, strike, or discord, between j the sections or the friends of the leading candidates for these honors. Harmony, concord, strength, and power are to be found only in fidelity to principles. In our present great national peril we need unity of action—the best efforts of ail, North, South, East and West—to serve and save the Constitution and the country. Re member, that it is tyranny, and not liberty, that has bred our national calamities. The people must spurn their tyrants, and look alone to those who are guided by a spirit of patriotism, erudition, and a just consideration of right and justice to all without regard to caste or color, to carry them and the country safely through the tempestous storm of Radical misrule, in which it is now our misfortune to be en gu! phed. We have no disposition to dietate to the National Democratic Convention, which meets in the city of New York, on the 4th day of July next, for the purpose of selecting menfor the high position ofjjandard-bearers in tbePresidential contest,for in this we have faith to believe that they will bring to bear the highest order of patriotism and talent, and with a harmony that will challenge the admiration of the world, confer the honors upon those in whom the people have confidence—a contrast of whose abilities and virtues will mantle the cheeks of their opponents with shame and humilia tion. While the Southern States have a deep interest in the success of the Democratic party, in order to wipe out the disgrace and humiliation of an unqualified negro suffrage imposed upon them by the party of tyrants of whom Grant and Colfax are their representative heads, they should refrain from even an expression of their choice of candidates, much less to dictate in the least to the Convention, as to whom j they wili or whom they will not support, should they be permitted to exercise the right of suffrage as States within the | Union in the Presidential contest. Their j councils within the Convention will be ail important, and if tendered and accepted in a spirit of conciliation, as it doubtless will be, it wili go far to strengthen the arm of the Northern Democracy and i diffuse a spirit of enthusiasm that will make the nomination equivalent to an : election. Impeachment is virtually dead, but there must needs be retained within the halls of Congress its putrid carcass upon which the dogs of impeachment may lea-: and fatten. Butler, the Beast, is still hounding the President, and, under the powers granted him as one ol the House Managers, has assumed inquisitorial pow ers in the investigation of the causes which influenced the seven Radical Senators to vote “not guilty’ on the eleventh and principal article of impeachment. Such an assumption of power on the part of a . member of the House over the conduct of 1 Senators has no warrant in the Comtitu tion, which makes each house the sole judge of the conduct, character, and quali ficatioDS of its members, nor parallel in the history of governments. It is a burning shame and disgrace to the American na tion that so high-handed an outrage and insult should be offered to the dignity of the American Senate by so low and de- , graded a beast as that of Ben. Butler. CULLETT’S PATENT STEEL BRUSH COTTON GINS. Q ISAAC T. HEARD & CO., BUTTON FACTORS, AGENTS. Rumor has it that the Beast himself will be called to answer these insults to the Senate upon the re assembling of that body to-morrow. But this is a quarrel among themselves iu which the Democracy have no part. Give them rope and they will hang themselves. Local politics are, just, now, absorbing a large share of public attention in Wash in, ton. The negro party have thoir candi dates in tho field, and, with an energy worthy a bettercausc, are leaving no stone unturned to place the municipal govern ment of our capital in the hands of the negro and his allies—the white negro.
