A Simile.—Sno Its, who is proverbial f- r promptitude in drawing similes, said, on Friday, as the Circus procession was going up Broad street, that the monkey with the broken stick in his paw reminded him of a Radical Congressman holding impeachment in his hand-—“a broken reed.” If the monkey heard the simile we dent think it felt very much flattered by it.

German Catiiomu Union.—The New York Herald of Tuesday says: 'l'he great procession of the German Roman Catholic Central Union took place as announced yesterday morning. It was favored by an extraordinarily beautiful bright duy and was an imposing clcmon strais :■ About noon the procession re turned to the Church of the Most Holy K< die mer, on Third street, where High Mu * wa n read and Bcv. Father Wayrieh delivered a sermon. The business pro ceeding’ of 'he Central Union will com mence this morning, at nine o’clock, at the Gorman Assembly Rooms, after haring attend'd High Ma-s at ihe same church. It in estimated by the Worldt\\n.t twenty five thousand men were in the procession. Tho order originated in Baltimore in 1855. A Cask for General Meade.—A few days ago a negro foreman on a plantation in Hate county brutally whipped a white boy aged about 15years, who was employed as a laborer on the place. The Greensbro’ B'arrn gives tin; following statement of the facts : Ala i, probably 11 or 15 years of' age, dm so nos a man by the namo of Dorse, who lives some 8 or 10 miles north of this, in Mr. Bryant Avery’s neighnurbood, was very sevoroly whipped a few days ago by a negro man in the employment of Mr. B. Avery. The facts, as we have heard them, are briefly these: 'l’he boy was employed by Mr. Avery to work in the field. The negro man who whipped him was the foreman on Ihe place. The boy had been dropping peas, and not having done the work in a satisfactory manner, the foreman cut the limb of a peach tree, and whipped him with it, most severely, leaving his hack from the neck to his loins most shockingly bruised. Wo judge that lie must have re ceived at least fifty lashes, and heavy ones at that. The punishment would have been severe and cruel to have been inflicted on a slavo in the days of slavery, for any offence, not of the most heinous character. A warrant was issued for tho arrest of the negro by Justice Wright, hut he had made hi' escape, threatening, wo understand, to kill any one who should attempt to take him. Such an outrageous attempt merits very severe punishment, The negro will consult his safety by leaving the neighbor hood permanently. ’ Affair, of Honor—Two Colored Mkn Fkiht a Dull. —Tin; Challenger Killed.—A telegraphic dispatch trout Savannah yesterday hrietly informed our readers that a negro man had been killed iua duel. The novelty of this tragic affair induces us to give full particulars from the A lies A. Herald of Thursday : duel Was fought yesterday at.Screven’s Furry, on tho Carolina shore, between two colored men of lids city, respect!vely named Jackson Brand and Kugenu More bend, winch resulted in the death of the former. i The facts, in far as could bo ascertained, aie as follows : Jackson Brand was Pres- Lident of the Colored Conservative Club iNo. 1 and Kttgene Morehead Vice I’res fident. Brand was not long ago a violent Itadioal and a member of the Union 1 .esgue, but changed his politics and be- V.uiui in ardent supporter of Conserva- Cjye principles. Among the members of the i onservative Club of which lie was Prevalent were a few who believed he was oiuy :ru: a double game; among them was Mor»di« ad, who kept a close watch upon him On Monday last Morehead ol.served Brand leaving the house of a noted Radi cal, and a' once accused him of double dealing, and said, among othor things, that lie : Brand; had made a speech in tho l.oval le ague, in which he had staled licit it was Ids intention to wash his hands in the blood of every Southern man. Brand denied the chatge and a hot quarrel en sued, which. Inti fir tho interposition of friends, would liave lerminaled in a light on tho spot.* They separated, and the next day (Tuesday) Brand sent a challenge to mortal combat to Morehead, Alex. Hardee, Secretary of the Conservative Club, bearing the missive. On handing the note to Morehead, Hardee was asked bv him what it was ail about. Hardee re plied (hat it was a challenge to tight, and that Brand had sent it, whereupon More liead, who was uualiie to riwd or write, asked Hardee to read it, which was done. Morehead then asked llardeo to write an acceptance of the challenge, and state that he would choose double barrelled shot guns, loaded with sixteen buckshot ; the distauci' sixteen puces ; and the due! at Screven's Ferry the next morning at 7 o’clock. The challenge was written, car ried, agreed to, and every preparation made lor the meeting on the “held of honor” the next morning. K.u lv yesterday morning found the par ties on their way to the ground. Brand was evompau.od by his second, Alex. Hardee, and Morehead by liis, Hniue Spooring. There were about a dozen friends along but no surgeon. About a ' quarter past niue tho preliminaries were arranged, and tits opponents placed op ] posito each other, fifteen paces distant, : with double barrelled guns, one barrel of each being loaded with sixteen buckshot. Brand cemed somewhat nervous, while Morohtad was perfectly cool and collected. At the command both simultaneously fired, and Brand fell, exclaimiug “I'm not w hipped vet,” while at the same time wa- In ud tiie exultant shout of More head " By God I've got him, " and after ward he remarked that Brand seemed j so ” scan i Ukfi that he thought lie w .-nid not kid him, but shoot him in the j tegs and give him time to repent of his treachery! Brand’s second went to him as j so n as lie fell, and found that the charge , from Mo. mad's gun had entered both thighs. Brand was quite weak from losses' i ..a!, and he could not stand up, l>nt * i.d if i.ys second would hold him up j ho would exchange shots again. His second \ i > properly refused to allow any further bosi lities. Morehead then walked , over to" here Brand \w4»lviitg, ami shook hands with him. W ith the assistance of 1 Morelr. cd and the others, Brand was car ried t«i the boat, and brought to the city, ■ and then place.l in a vehicle and carried : to his house near the Atlantic and Gulf ; Railroad Depot. lb s. Bulloc.li and Mor- ; rI si ill were sent for, but the s utierer had been so long without medical aid, that •heir skill was unavailing, except to ail, - j v late th-c pain, and he died at » quarter to 1 twelve, two hours and a half after reoeiv ng the wound, which severed one, and probably lailii of the femoral arteries. Ur. Myers, coroner, held an iruju< st at haif-past three o’clock. The seconds of the parties b'titieil substantially as almve stated, and Urs. Bulloch and Morrison that tic v lmd been called in, and found the wounded man very weak from loss of bio and. and tiiat so much blood bad is-eu 1..-, that it was impossible to save him. The jury rendered a verdict as follows: “We” rind that the deceased carnet his death from a gun-shot wound indicted from the hands of I'ugene Morehead, in a duet on tiie SOuth Carolina shore.” Tin iiei I ns.d, who is siiout 35 years old, will lie buried to-day. From parties who wero present at the duel, we learn tiiat everything was con ducted properly, and that eacis of the duel ists seemed determined to shoot the other, but the fiervousne-ss of Brand made him mitts. Both parties were advised not to go, but would not heed the advice. Their neglect in not providing a surgeon was most criminal, and caused the death of Brand, who, otherwise, would now. most probably, bo alive and out of danger. We understand that Morehead, upon being asked why surgeon* had not been ob tained, replied tiiat he went to one, and he charged tiny dollars, and “I oouliin’t af ford it; any way, 1 didn't intend to be killed, and'l thought the other fellow would have souse enough to bring one.” | .Senator Pomeroy, of KaDaas- -Ills Ante cedents. The Leavenworth (Kansas) Conservative I says that it was “no trap” when Senator Pomeroy, of Kansas, offered, through his , brother-in-law, to Colonel Cooper, to sell four votes against impeachment for $40,- 000. lie wag to dispose of his own vote, and three others of his Radical colleagues, for tbi t sum. The Conservative thus en lightens us in regard to Pomeroy's ante cedents. It says: “Pomeroy and his brother-in law have been in this business of buying and selling before. The first adventure of' this kind in Kansas was in the Legislature of 1861, when he purchased forty-nine Republican members to vote for him for Senator, over Marcus J. Parrott, and paid them out of the money deposited with him by the generous people of the East to purchase food and raiment for the starving poor of Kansas. Men are now living in Kansas who know about the amount paid to each member, and who taw a portion of the toon y paid to the purchased. It appears he is not now in the purchasing lice ; he is occupying the role of salesman i Kan sans ! are you not proud of Senator Pomeroy?” New York Vegetable Market.— The "Evening Post ” of the 2d instant, gives the following quotations : “Potatoes have not been quite so active, and with increasing reports of new Southern, which have declined to $4 50(a 5 jsir bbl., sellers of old find it necessary to make some con cessions, the market closing rather heavy. We quote at s3@3 37 for Buckeye, s4(d» (o>4 12j for Chili Red, s4(e4 25 for Jackson whites ;$4 25@4 50 for Prince Alberts; $4 25(</>4 50 for Peachblows; and $4 50(" ; 4 75 for Mercers. The above figures do not include pack-ices. Other vegetables are quoted as foil >ws : South ern gTeen peas sso*6 per bbl. ; string beans $3 50(«4 per crate.” West Virginia Radical .State Ticket.—The Radicals of West Virginia held a State Convention last week and put in nomination the following State ticket: For Governor.—The Hon. Wm. E. Ste | venson, of Wood. Secretary of .State.—James M. Pipes, of Marshall. Treasurer. —James A. Macauley, of Wheeling. Auditor ■ —Thomas Buggess of Roane. Attorney General. -• Thayer Melvin, of Campbell. Judge of Appeals. —R. L. Berkshire, of Monongalia. Eh. tors at Large. —lt. S. Brown, of Jackson, A. W. Campbell, of Wheeling. District Electors. —lst. Nathaniel Goff, jr., of Harrison. 2d. Marshall Hagans, of Harrison. 3d. Wm. 11. Powell, of Mason. They also parsed a couple of resolutions j endorsing the Chicago platform and ratify ing (lie nomination of Grant and Colfax. Grant lias about as good a chance for j carrying West Virginia as he has for New j York or Connecticut. Radicalism has, to use a popular cant phrase, “played out” in the State of the Pan Handle. As pray ing for brother Willey saved his vote for the impeachment, we suggest that brother [ Simpson and brother Wiiloy and brother Ilarlan pray for West Virginia. Some- | thing must be done or it is certainly lost \ for Radicalism. Information Wanted. Sarnuel Joseph Browne (the son of Mary Jane Browno, formerly of Pike county, Ala)., or Argenton Farmer will please write to me, Thomaston, Upson county, Ga., in forming me of their whereabouts, as I am anxious to find them. Any information will he thankfully received by a poor widow and two little fatherless girls. Mary Jane Browne. Other papers will please copy. Fine Wheat. —We have been shown some very fine wheat of the Mediter ranean variely, raised by our excellent Seedsman, Pemble, and which we believe will prove valuable to our wheat-growing friends. The Mediterranean is a red bearded wheat—lias long, full heads, and the sample shown us is fully six feet high. The grain is large, full and plump, and, we should judge, will make flour of an excel lent quality. I)eat" of Mu. Anthony ITii.t.—Mr. Anthony Hill, brother of our citizen Aug. Hill, of the Revenue Department, was found dead at his residence in this city Saturday morning. Mr. Hill was a quiet, peaceable citizen, lie had been suffering from a cancerous affection for several years. The Goronor held an inquest on his body. Not Over Honest. —The Louisville Journal says : “ Governor Brown of Geor gia, declared himself in the Chicago Con vention to have been an original secession ist. He wasn’t, however, honest enough to confess that he would always have re mained a secessionist if he had not seen that he could have no hope of riding iuto office except upon the shoulders of the negroes and white ‘ scalawags.’ ” Newspaper Change.—The Atlanta Southern Opinion, of Friday evening, ap peared only as an extra. It contained the announcement that the material and good will of the Daily Opinion and Southern Opinion had been sold by John M. Floyd & Cos. to Colonel Cary W. Styles and Mr. James 11. Anderson, who purpose publish ing, on aud after the 10th inst., a daily morning Democratic paper. Colonel Carey W. Styles is well-known throughout South Carolina and Georgia, being a native of the former andaeitizen of the latter for many years. Colonel Styles has been identified with several newspapers aud is fully competent to publish a first class journal, lie will make old Granny Bard behave herself. Georgia Home Insurance. — The Georgia Home Insurance Company of Co lumbus, Ga., have ready for delivery, through its Agents, tho scrip of Dividend No. 1, amounting to twenty five per cent, of the net premiums paid on participating annua! policies, on policies issued during tho nine months' interval trom‘April Ist to December 31st, 1867* Dividend No. 2 will be issued January Ist, 1860. The advantages of insuring in a cou. patty like this arc too plain to need argu ment or illustration. The assets of the Georgia Home on the Ist of Jauuary, 1808, were $410,280.87. Messrs. Hall and Carr are prepared to issue the scrip, and have a notice to this effect in this issue. Trust the Ladies—True as the Needle to the Poll.—The Macon Journal it Messenger vouches for the truth of the following: a warm reception. Mr.— is the scalawag Senator ; elect from the Senatorial District com posed of the counties of . He is a I'ull-hlown Radical and loves a negro as much as he hates a ” rebel." He goes in, of course, not only for political but social equality, and repudiates, not only at the ballot-box bur in his household, all dis tinctions founded upon race or color. Acting upon this theory he has brought one of his constituents to great grief. Said cous itueut called to see him not long ago, and dinner being announced as ready before he let), he was invited to 3 seat at the Senator's _ hospitable board. Lie ac cepted of the invitation, and. walking in, plumped himself on a chair by the side of a daughter of his host. It was the rashest act of l.is lile. The next thing be knew he wa - lying upon the floor, where he had been knocked by a chair in the indignant woman’s hands. Her mother reinforced her, and such a mauliug as that darkey got makes the bones ache to write abvut. The old rapscallion who got him into this trouble stood bv ali the time not darinsr to say a word. When they bad fiuished with the darkey they turned to the white man, and, telling him that they would not i live with any one who sought thus to degrade them, packed ap what they needed and left the house. They are boarding around among the neighbors and j find a hearty welcome wherever they go. We propose their health with all the honors. Hip! hip! hurrah! Personal —\Y e had the pleasure of a visit, Saturday, from our friend, Colonel Lotion, Solicitor General of the Oeinul gee Circuit, who is at rtjute for New York, whit her he goes to look after some pro fessional business. The CoL is looking as bright as anew pin, snd isascheeif'ul as any ichite man dart to be in Georgia. We wish him a pleasant trip, and a successful accomplishment of his business purpose. Torquemada Meade. The military satrap who, by the grace I of Andrew Johnson, holds despotic sway : over that part of the world’s moral vine , yard known in Radical state craft as District Number Three, seems determined j that his name shall go down to posterity as the boldest, most vindictive and mstlig ; nant of the followers of his great proto type, Torquemada, who, three hundred and eighty-five years ago, first brought into symmetry and moulded into a con j gruous and effective formula the imper- I feet inquisitional edicts of Theodosious, by i establisbing the censejo de la suprema ; inquisition for the proper punishment by j rack, by thumb screw, by iron bed, by ; branding irons, by starvation and by j cutting of the tongues of those wbo pre' i sumed to question the righteousness and , infallibility of the satraps of that period. | It Torquemada’s name has Leeoiue i synonymous with all that is cruel, and i bitter, and barbarous, and bloodthirsty, i and malignant, and mean, and infamous, | shall not the satrap of Number three rea | sonably expect that in future ages, when j the crimes of the great C’astillian In quisitor are p tinted to as the proofs of his excellence in the “high art” of human torture, that his own sharp acts of cruelty and revenge while “ lordling ” of an op pressed and wholly defenceless people, may place him second at least on the roll I of those whose crimes and cruelties lave been on so gigantic a scale as to make them notorious and historical, if not re nowned and respec:able. May he not point with pride to the iniquity of his order sending, manacled and in chains, five respectable gentlemen of Alabama to the loathsome cells of his inquisitorial bastile on the malaria-infected banks of the Dry Tortugas ? Does not the arrest of more than a half a score of Georgia’s most honored citizens,without warrantor charges being exhibited against them, and their detention in filthy Federal prisons for weeks, deprived of intercourse with their family and friends, and their release only upon heavy hoods to appear and answer whatever vague or uncertain charges which, in the future, may be made against them ? Should not his re- j fusal to obey the order of the United States Court for the District of Alabama, j discharging from arrest a prominent citizen j of that State who had been illegally de- i prived of his liberty by military order; and yet mere recently, should not his organiza tion of un inquisitorial body in the city of Columbus whose proceedings are so graphi cally described by the Sun (and which we give below), place him side by side with the great Spanish Brute of the fifteenth cen- I tury ? If Torquemada boasts of the intro, ductiou of the first autos de fe in Spain, may not the satrap of Georgia point with pride <o his introduction in America of tLe first San benito ? Can he not claim his scores in the satrapy whose liberty and safety of person is secured only by the wearing of’ the “blessed vest,” ordered, cut, fashioned and buttoned on by the mer ciful commands of the Saintly Meade ? When General Meade was ordered South as the successor of the imbecile braggart Pope, we welcomed his advent among us as an augury of' prudent councils and good government. He came heralded as a Democrat, and endorsed by Mr. Johnson as a man of good intentions and fair abili ty. Wo have watched his course since assuming command of tho District, with a firm and fixed purpose to indulge iu no hasty or petulant criticisms of his official conduct. We have seen since his first order assuming command, much to con demn and nothing to justify or admire in the administration of the important office with which he is invested. It is true that he has spoken, a few brave, good words , but his acts have shown him to be just what from his previous training and re cent connections we might have expected— a Radical trimmer and military despot. It has been urged recently in his favor that he is really a Democrat, and is at heart opposed on principle to the Recon struction acts, which he is required by his oath of office to execute ; that he is op posed to universal negro suffrage and ne gro equality, and that his whole course has been dictated by an earnest desire to pro mote the interests of the white people of the State and bring about a speedy resto ration of the Union. To this we reply that if General Meade is a Democrat, may the good Lord deliver us from such Democracy! Ben Butler the thief, Ren Logan the Braggart, Dan Sickles the Cuckold, and Porney the Dead Duck were all Democrats. If Meade be a Democrat it is of the Dead Duck-Butler order of Democracy. Since he has de veloped his policy here and shown both his hands reeking with the hot filth and slime of Radicalism, we have felt amazed at the blunder of President Johnson in fastening such a cruel and vindictive Radi cal partisan upon a defcuccless and law abiding people. While it is not to be won dered at that the Southern poople should have been deceived in General Meade, it is a criminal blunder of Mr. Johnson in sending him here to rule over them. The truth is much of the trouble and vexation and oppression of the Southern people can be traced to the insane policy of Mr. Johnson in attempting to administer the Government on constitutional princi ples through the agency of appointees to office whose political tenets were in known and open hostility to his own views. Even the great drama recently enacted in the Senate of the United States, in which he was the conspicuous figure, has failed to impress upon him the absolute necessity of perfect harmony of views in those who are to administer the Government. Hislatest appointment, that of General Schofield as Secretary of War, is already claimed as a Radical triumph. As long as the Pres ident persists in appointing and continuing in office men who are not in full accord with his views upon the great vital and constitutional questions which divide the people of this eouutry, so long may we expect his administration to be marked by continual blunders and weakened by con tinual dissensions. Throughout the entire South more than nine-tenths of the Federal office-holders appointed by the President are his most bitter and implacable enemies. In the . recent elections in the Southern States ; these office-holders have formed the very backbone oftheßadicalorganizations. They j have contributed the funds to defray the j expenses of the campaign, and have devoted their time, which ought to have | been given to the discharge of their official duties, to secure the success of Radicali.-m. Why these men are retained in office we are at a loss to conjecture. The im portance to the Radical party of having them kept in power is so apparent and pressing that they have already moulded special legislation to secure them in their present places, and have now pending in Congress, having passed one House, a bill which takes from the President the power either to remove or appoint any officer connected with the collection of the revenue. The object of this legislation is apparent. The funds which these revenue officers control is thelever Vy which is to be moved in harmony with the Radical in terests, the whuie floating vote of the South ern States. They have already in their hands and subject to their control the mili tary power of the United States, secured : through General Grant and Mr. Johnson’s , Southern military satraps, and now they are attempting, and with good prospects of success, to take possession of the money influence of the country. The sword and puree united will be too formidable to be overcome by wordy fulmimitions from the White House after the Radical plans are fully matured. But we have wandered from our subject. 1 We intended only to introduce the follow ! ing editorial extract from the Columbus ! Sun and the communication to that paper j of Colonel Shepard : ! From the communication of Colonel j Fit'v, ini T. Shepard, w hich appears in au j other column, it will he seen that a Mili tary Inquisition of a most outrageous and i uujustiriable character has been establish ed in this community. We are informed that servants of alarge number of the most prominent and respectable families in the city and its surroundings have been ar ‘ rested aud taken before this commission, I with the design of bribing or forcing them i to swear against the lives of the young gentlemen of this place who have been ar rested and are now in confinement. We cannot give expression to the indignation excited by this latest invention of the mili tary authorities to wreak their own and the vengeance of their Kadieal masters upon peaceable and unoffending citizens. The assertion made by us a few days since, that the lives and litter ties of the citizens of this place were at the mercy of vaga bonds and suborned perjurers, has been fully verified. The feeling of insecurity inspired by this action cannot be described. There is no telling when any lady or gen tleman in this community may be hurried under guard to a military dungeon, and be sentenced to death or imprisonment upon testimony manufactured by process of threats and bribes here, to suit the taste of a Military Commission which may sit elsewhere. j It is highly probable that every house hold has iu it a .-pv of the “Loyal League,” , patiently catching up table-talk, to report ; at headquarters. j It seems that we are to have the Spanish | Inquisition revived in our midst, and if ; money, threats, shaving of heads, bads and chains, the dungeons of Pulaski and the Liry Tortugas, are not sufficient to secure victims Tor Radical hate and ven geance, that the buck and gag, the rack, thumb screws, hot pincers. Ac., will be called into requisition to force out lies up on which innocent men and women may j be put to death. ' * I W cannot trust ourselves to denounce j ln terms deserved this infamous and bar i parous proceeding. The simple recital of j‘t f 3 more than sufficient to curdle the I blood of any one who carries within his i breast the slightest spark of manly and I honorable feeling. j A\ e again appeal to President Johnson , to remove Genera) Meade, who has shown ! himself utterly unlit to be entrusted with the great powers at his command, and we call upon the Press of the State to second us in this apipeal. A ruler who will sub ject innocent men to a rigorous confine ment in loathsome dungeons, deprive them of all communication with their friends, deny them everything save sol diers rations, and then set about to manu facture evidence to convict them, by play- , ing upon the fears, superstition and avarice of ignorant negroes, has neither ! the qualities of head or heart which can j render him competent to be entrusted with the government of a colony of con victs. Mr. Johnson has been enabled to ; give to Louisiana and Texas two rulers of capacity and humanity, viz: Generals Hancock and Buchanan. We notice that General Rousseau has returned from Alaska, and we feel assured that il sent to the command of District No. 3, he ] would be enabled to carry out all the just requirements of the Reconstruction Acts, I in such manner as to insure, at least, the ! respect and confidence of a people who, inaddition to the rigors ofmilitary rule, are now subjected to the vindictiveness and hatred of those who were sent amongst them to aid in the administration of Law and Justice. From the Sun ds Timet. MILITARY DESPOTISM, OR MODE OF OBTAT TAINING “SUITABLE” EVIDENCE. Soon after our prisoners went oft' to At lanta yesterday morning, a military squad came out to my house and compelled sev en colored servants and children to accom pany them to headquarters, where thev were severally examined as to their knowledge of Dr. Kirkseey’s whereabouts on the night of Ashburn’s murder, and what they have since heard the Doctor say about it, etc. So far all right; but when a witness did not tell enough to suit them, the gentlemen examining would accuse them of lying, saying “they had a fortune teller who had told them all about it and what they knew,” and threatened them with a shaved head, a ball and chain, and being at once sent to Fort Pulaski if they did not tell the truth —asking which they would prefer, Fort Pulaski or Tortugas? Such the evidence, and such the means of obtaining it (of freedmen) with which military despotism is seeking to convict respectable citizens of a most heinous crime—offering rewards of thousands of dollars to the cupidity of one class, and threats of punishment by being sent a long ways from home, shaved heads and man acles to the other. Low'd Shepherd. Wynnton, June 4,1868. Negro Riot In Washington, Negro mobs aud negro riots are very good things at the South. They tend to “fire the great heart of the nation,” and keep alive the cooling embers of sectional hate and vindictiveness. They prove the “rebellious spirit’' 1 of the Southern aristo crats, and expose the dangers which threaten tho Republic from robed traitors. They excite the pity and compassion of the old maids and strong-minded women of the North for the poor blacks, and arouse the sympathies of such 'statesmen as Stevens, and Kelley, and Butler for these oppressed men and brethren. They make good electioneering capital for North ern elections, aud tend to strengthen the in fluence of the Radical party. They show tie “cruel barbarity” of Southern white people and exhibit the wonderful meek ness aud lamblike gentleness of the im maculate Sambos. But negro riots are very different things when they occur North of the Po tomac. Then the blacks become incarnate fionjj and 6,11 flcdvpd d0,,, 110. 'l'l-<»n the true instincts and character of the lawless freedmen are seen in their full develop ment. Then the ferocity of their nature, and the untauieable brutality of their con duct is properly recognized and fully ap preciated. A negro mob in a Northern city is a horridly outrageous affair—in the South it is but the gentle admonition of injured innocence. On Wednesday last the Radicals in Washington had a pretty fair sample of a genuine Southern negro riot —a riot in which all the lawlessness, all the crimes, all the outrages upon society was commit ted by the meek and gentle blacka moors. The infuriate demons, egged on by such consummate scoundrels as Forney & Cos., made the day and a part of the night hideous with their deeds of blood and rapine. Several white persons were killed, and many received serious wounds nflicted with razors, which, it seems, were the weapons used ver\ generally by the negroes. The whites were, as usual, un armed, not expecting a serious difficulty. The cause of this disgraceful scene, en acted under the very shadow of the na tional capitol, grew out of the excitement engendered by the city election. There, as here, the negroes banded together in solid mass and paraded the streets on their way to the polls, with drums beating and ban ners flying. There, as here, they assumed the role of chiefs and leaders. And there, as here, the whites would not submit to 1 their arrogance and insults. vve are not altogether sorry that this riot has occurred. It will open the eyes I of the Northern people to the true charac ter of this vicious black clement in South- j ern society and prepare their minds for the reception of truth in relation to subse quent occurrences of this sort should any more take place in the South. The negro will find Chat, while the Radi cals were disposed to overlook his crimes and outrages when they were confined to the South, the exhibition of such conduct at the national capito will bring his race under the “ban” throughout the whole country. The New York Tribune of Saturday said: “We hope that the rumor of Polish insur rection on the Gallioian frontier may be unfounded. There is not the remotest possibility of a success of the Poles, and every insurrectionary attempt at the present time can only lead to useless blood shed. Russia continues t) employ the most barbarous measures for extinguishing the Polish nationality—measures which fill the whole civilized world with horror and indignation ; but anew insurrection would only increase the cruelty of the Rus sians.” All this is very true and very sug gestive. We desire to add: We hope that the rumor of Southern Insurrection on the Potomac frontier may be unfounded. There is not the remotest possibility oi a success ot the Southerners, and every insurrectionary attempt at the present time can only lead to useless bloodshed. Con gress continues to employ the most bar barous measures for extinguishing the Southern States—measures which fill the whole civilized world with indignation ; but anew insurrection would only increase the cruelty of Congress. —Baltimore Gaz.

The Omuibus hill is up. Trumbull explained why Alabama was era-el. Regarding Florida, which was added, Trumbull said that General Meade report ed a majority for the Constitution of five thousand and fifty. Wilson moved to insert Alabama. Sherman and Stewart favored the amendment. Morton favored [the early admission of Alabama, but feared its insertion would : jeopard the whole bill, and would therefore j vote againt [the amendment, but would j favor a separate bill for Alabama’s itn- j mediate admission. Wilson denounced the provision under j which Alabama had voted in very harsh j terms as being absurd.

Butler said that when he believed what would benefit his party would not benefit the country he would leave his party. [Cries from Democrats—“ Don’t come on our. side.”] Butler opposed the Bill and denied the right of Congress to legislate any man in as the head of a department. Schenck said that if Butler’s views pre vailed the whole bill would be destroyed. Ho opposed the continuance of the system allowing the President to make allappoint ments. Peters wanted the section stricken out. He believed the Bill wrong iu principle, and that the best way to prevent fraud was to reduce the whiskey tax. Several members argued that the pas sage of the law would legislate Rollins out of his office. Finally the sixth section confirming the appointing pGwer on Rollins was stricken out by a vote of sixty-four to forty-five. Logan argued against the bonded ware houses, aud favored a tax of twenty to twenty-five cents, .collectable at the worm of the still. Covodesaid that he had a telegram from the Collector of his District, say ing that there were one million nine hundred thousand gallons of spirits in the bonded warehoues in his District, on which the owners could not pay tax, as spirits were selling on the streets at one dollar and a half.

SENATE. Washington, June 6, p. m.—Gorham was sworn in as Secretary. The Omnibus Admission hill was re sumed. . An amendment including Alabama was discussed all day. Morton said that he had changed his mind about the danger of the defeat of the hill by including Alabama, arid should, mereiute, vote tor tne ameiiutneui: The debate was scathing and mostly confined to the record of opposing Senators on negro capacity. Without taking a vote on the amend ment, the Senate adopted the Conference report regarding Arkansas, and, after Executive session, adjourned. HOUSE. After unimportaut business, the Tax bill was resumed and considerable pro gress made, but the attendance was slim and all the important points were held in abeyance.

The . Conference report on Arkansas’ admission will certainly be adopted in the House oil Monday. There is but little interest taken in the Tax Bill from the positive opinion that it will not pass this session, though a special biil reducing the Whiskey and modifying the Tobacco Tax is regarded as certain.

Conflict of Authority between the Boabd of Registration and Gen eral Buchanan. New Orleans. June 6, noon. —This morning’s Republican contains a proclama tion from the Board of Registration cre ated by the late Convention which yakes direct issue with the District Commander. The proclamation quotes the ordinance creating it, and recites that the District Commander has failed to recognize the re quirements of the new Constitution, which provides that all civil officers elected shall enter upon the discharge of their duties on the second Monday after the returns of the elections have been officially promulgated, or as soon as qualified ac cording to law. Also that the General Assembly held their first session in New Orleans, on the third Monday after the official promulga tion aforesaid. That failure to inaugurate State officers as above provided, would prevent the legal existence of the General Assembly, the present acting Governor beiug Constitutionally unable to approve any act of said General Assembly, and without the approval of the- Governor it being impossible for any Legislative enact ment to become a law, and thus effectually prevent reconstruction in accordance with the laws of Congress; that the Command ing General is not above such laws of Congress, nor above the Convention which framed the Constitution, and concludes as follows: | Whereas, The Reconstruction laws fully empowered the Constitutional Convention to govern all matters of detail in regard to the inauguration of the Government au : thorized by Congress; and, whereas, said Constitutional Convention has delegated its full powers in the premises to this Board, i which is the legal representative of said 1 Convention. Now, therefore, I. S. B. Packard, Chairman of the Board of Regis | tration aforesaid, in obedience to the duty ! empowered by said Constitutional Coiveu i tion upon and by virtue of the authority thus vested in this Board, do hereby notify all civil officers, elected under said Consti tution, that said Constitution requires that I they qualify and take possession of their : respective oliiees on Monday, June 15th, I 1863, in accordance with article one hun dred and fifty-eight of the Constitution, I also notify the members of the General Assembly of Louisiana, elected under said Constitution, that by article one hundred and fifty;nine of the said Constitution they are required to convene in the city of New Orleans, on Monday, June the 22d, 1868, at 12 o'clock noon; and I further notify all civil officers now in office that, by the new Constitution their terms of office will expire at 12 m., Monday, June 15th, at which time they will deliver up said offices with all the appurtenances thereto to their successors declared duly elected by the Special Order Number 121 of the Military Commander of the Fifth Military District, issued June 2j, 1868, provided that in all cases where the officers elect do not qualify according to the laws of Congress and of this State, present incumbents will hold over until such officer shall qualify or a successor shall have been appointed, or an officer declared elected who is able to qualify.

REVIEW OF TI E AVGUSTA MARKET, FOR THE WEEK ENDING JUNK 3, 1868. lit should be borne in mind that our quotations represent u \olesaleprices. Small lots, to Planters and others, are filled at a shade higher rates.] COTTON—The market has undergone a slight improvement since our last report, although the transactions have been very limited, especially in the home markot. Manufacturers and speculators appear to bo holding oft' as the season advances, but holders continue tirm and seem but little disposed to submit to a decline from pres ent prices, so that it may be safely pre sumed that for some weeks to come there will be no material falling off. The pros pects for an advance depend upon the condition of the growing crops as well as upon the demand of the manufacturer and the tricks of speculators. Should the ac counts irom the prospective crop be un favorable, speculation will be alive and lead to an advance. But these things are entirely conjectural, and depend upon certain contingencies which may or may notarise. The Liverpool market closes quiet but steady at Hid for Upland, New York at 31 cents and Augusta at 29 cents, the latter figures being nominal as very little is doing in our market.

State News. The private residepce of Mr. T. L. Wal lace, son of Campbell Wallace, Esq., in Ailatoona, was destroyed by fire a lew days ago. The prospect in the Cartersville section .or a good wheat crop is slim, corn is very backward, cotton not promising, but the fruit looking finely. In Western Georgia there is much com plaint of rust in the wheat, cotton back ward, but corn is doing well, a great deal planted and a large yield expected. The Bainbridge Argus reports the crops iu Southwestern Georgia full of .grass, and on sandy laud suffering much for want oi rain On Sunday evening last, May 31st, Capt. Jewett McGinnis was killed by Walter Cheek in Jasper county, lie wa.' shot with a shot gun,.45 buckshot peuetrat ing his breast. We have been informed that a young lady named Cing was struck and instantly ‘filled by lightning in Banks county ou lust Saturday. No particulars known. Four luxuriant and magnificent passenger cars have been added to tho rolling stock of the Central Railroad. The cars were built at the Southern Machine Works, ..and cost SIO,OOO a piece. More arrests were made yesterday in Cos lambus by the military authorities! All the arrested ware The Jonquirer says [ . are becoming as numerous as blackberries—too common to be news. A negro man named John Wadlaw was shot and killed ou Thursday last in the Ghderoad, opposite Woolfolks bend, near Columbus. lie had stolen a mule, am; when arrested tried to shoot his captor* wuo had to kill him iu self defence. Iho funeral of Jackson Brand, tho no gro duelist, fook place in Savannah on tiic 4ih, followed Uy u Jurgc procession of negroes. A riot was threatened by sotm. | Radical negroes, who tried to mob a Con servative black, but was quelled by the police. A number of young men in Athens, students of the University of Georgia, located in that town, have formed them selves into a “Tournament Glut),” and gave their first exhibition in the rin o, on last Tuesday. A writer,in the New Orleans Picayune flays that Uoiuuibus has $500,000 invented in manufactures. If he had doubled the amount he would have been much nearer the figures. Including all the different, branches of manufacturing there are fullv $2,000,000 invested in that city. The arrest of the Radical Loyal Leaguer Bennett in Columbus, which we chronicled a few days tjnoo, is now supposed to have been instigated by Ilulbert himself, who, as Bennett was getting unruly, was afraid lest he should “blow” some of his trioks. The Atlanta correspondent of the Macon Journal says that “McCays nomination by Bullock to a seat on the Supreme Bench is considered certain, but his con firmation by the Senate doubtful, as there are few negrooH in that body, and not many wbito men who have sunk so low as McUay. Gibson’s flunk movement. Whilsttheeon test over the Augusta District Judgeship was waxing warm in Atlanta, the news came that the patriot Gibson was quietly settled in Chicago as a delegate to the Convention. This was a trump card, the outside ring was thrown and Gibson .kept his seat. It is now reported that Blodgett, becom ing unruly in harness at Chicago, and Joe Brown fearing that he would throw off his yoke, hunted up Craugie and induced him to have Blodgett arrested and put iu durance vile. The paper-collar dealers complaiu that the newspapers in this Btato have killed the sale oi' paper collars here f that, by calling the Radical scalawags, paper-collar bummers, a great many decent people re fuse to wear them on that account. On Thursday evening tho body of a newly-born white baby was found lightly covered with earth in an alley running be tween Pine arid Poplar streets, near the Brown House, in Macon. It was found by the actions of a dog who was trying to scratch it up. A conclusive sign of the wickedness of the times. The Southern Enterprise has been advertising for the past two or three weeks for a boy of good moral character, and has not yet found one who cau fill the bill. The Western & Atlantic (State) Rail road has taken the initiative step in re ducing the present high passenger tariff of the Southern roads ; they now furnish a thousand mile ticket for $50.00, three cents per wile. On Thursday night a difficulty occurred in the bar-room of the Marshall House iu Savannah, which resulted iu one of the combatants being shot and seriously wounded in the hip by his opponent. None of the parties' names are given. At Cambridge, Dougherty county, on las* Monday, a man named Bell quarreled with a hired man, John Rook, about his stock, when Rook seized an axe and liter ally choped him to pieces. He imme diately gave himself up and shortly after going to jail committed suicide in his cell. MAUKIED, On the evenl.'i? ofi.be 2d iLbfc , by the Rev. ilr. CoU»b«rt, Jas»h*sC.
