The publication of our weekly Prices Current is
suspended until the opening of the Fall trade. Until
then, we shall issue a monthly statement of the mar
kets.
The Columbus Enquirer says the books of
registration are to be opened in Dougherty
county on Monday next.
Selling Out.—The Atlanta Intelligencer
contains a column and a half or Marshal’s
sales of city lots to be sold lor non-payment
of taxes.
The orders and forms for proceedings in
bankruptcy have been printed, and a limited
number authorized to be stricken off for the
us) of the Judges of the Supreme Court.
None as yet for general distribution.
Hon. F. McLeod.—We are much gratified
to learn that Col. McLeod, of Florida, whose
disappearance in Washington city was men
tioned iu our paper of Friday last, has turned
up safe in Baltimore.
Gen. Pope, in a recent letter to Gen. Grant
on affairs in Mobile, says that irom what he
can learn he doubts if the removal of the
Mayor and Chief of Police has been most
satisfactory to Union men or to respectable
rebels in Mobile.
Savannah Cotton Suits. —Ninety-three
suits commenced on the 11th inst. by the
claimants of the Savannah cotton alleged to
have been captured Uy General Sherman and
sold iu the city of New York. The claims
amount to above $1,000,000 in gold, and the
suits are authorized by recent acts of Con
gress.
The new City Council of Washington met
and organized on the 10th inst. The Con
servatives have a majority in the Upper
Board, and the Republicans a majority iu tbe
Lower Board. A colored man, nominated
for Messenger of the Upper Board, was de
feated; but the Lower Board elected a col
ored man for Messenger, and tbe President
of the Lower Board subsequently appointed
John T. Johnson, a colored man, Reading
Clerk to the Board.
New Georgia Wheat.—New wheat from
Georgia has made its appearance on the New
York Corn Exchange. The ripening of the
harvest will advance northward at the rat® of
twelve miles a day. In the tide water re
gions of Virginia lhe harvest will commence
by the 15th inst.
We learn from the Georgia Citizen that
flour made from this year's wheat appeared
iu the Americus market, on Tuesday last,
and was sold at sto per hundred.
The London Sped ator gives currency to
reports that Mr. Seward is negotiating for
the sale to the United States of all British
America, from the pole to 49 degrees lati
tude, and from tbe Pacific to the Cauadaß.
“This would make the Pacific side of the
continent Americau, and Mr. Seward offers,
as part of the price, to surrender the Alaba
ma claims, and, we presume, to provide
against tbe use of Americau privateers by
our European enemies. It is actually said
that Loul Stanley is only holding out for
Vancouver’s Island.”
An Important Decision. —The decision of
the Superior Court at Augusta, iu the case
of Heard vs. the Mechanics’ Bank, is Attract
ing considerable attention. It affects not
only only the rights of billholders, but has
an important bearing upon the stockholders
of the different banking institutions of tbe
State. We learn from the Chronicle that the
main point decided in this case, and one of
vital importance to all our people, is that
there can be no surrender of a bank charter
in Georgia, either under the common law or
our code, unless such surrender is accepled
by the Legislature. By this decision there
is not a single legal surrender of a bunk
charier in the State, and all the pretended
surrenders and the subsequent assignments
under these are illegal and void.
It is stated that the decision of Judge
Reese meets the approval of the legal miud
of Augusta, and it is confidently expected
that if the case is taken to the Supreme
Couit the point will be sustained.
Political Omens. —A. judicial election
held in Illinois on the 4th inst. affords addi
tional proof of the progress of conservative
sentiment. It was for a Judge of the Second
Judicial Division of the Stale, embracing
about twenty-five counties. These counties
last year gave a Radical majority of over
three thousand votes, and the Radicals there
fore thought it a first-rate chance to defeat
Judge Walker, a Conservative, who was a
candidate for re-election. They ran agaiust
him Judge Emerson, a very popular man,
who had formerly filled the position. The
Democrats and Conservatives were opposed
to making a party contest, but adhered to
Judge Walker. Partial returns show the
election of Judge Walker by 4,500 or 5,000
majority. A party contest was also made by
the Radicals for the Solicitor of the same Di
vision, aud the Democratic candidate was
elected by a majority nearly as large as Judge
Walker’s.
“Oar Seaport.*'
The Columbus Sun, remarking under, the
above head, upon the commercial mportance
of our city, says :
Savannah, the present season, ranks as a
cotton port second along the whole coast,
New Orleans, of course, being first. The re
ceipts thus far exceed those of Mobile by
3,000 and Charleston by 100 bales. Over
16,000 bales have been received at Savannah
from Montgomery. At the present time pas
sengers from Mobile and New Orleans are
going North via Savannah, which they can
do cheaper than by any other route. Steam
ers leave Savannah three times a week. Co
lumbus derives advantage from this cheap
through freight and passenger connection-
All that benefits our railroads, experience
teaches advauces our city, and all that passes
along our thoroughfares aids to a degree the
corporation. We hope more cotton from
points west of this may ke drawn to Savan
nah. It is decidedly a cheap, expeditious
and safe route to commercial centres.
We thank our intelligent cotemporary for
this deserved compliment to our city. Sa
vannah, at the close of the war, like other
Southern cities, was an epitome of the for
lorn condition of the South. Ruin in its
business affairs surrounded the spectator on
every side ; but in the midst of it a brave
human effort on the part of our intelligent
and indefatigable merchants and business
men to construct anew order of things was
commenced and prosecuted undismayed. It
is a question whether the pathetic effect of
the commercial desolation was not rather
increased than diminished by the noble pro
gress 6o far made in the restoration and im
provement of the business ol' the city. Con
sidering the slender means then at our com
mand, we certainly have reason, -as the Sun
generously intimates, lo congratulate our
seives on the work already achieved; yet, it is
melancholy to compare the present condition
of things, with what might have been ac
complished 1 In a time of prosperity and true
peace. But this is a reflection upon which
we must not dwell.
Did we say that the circumstances of our
city since the war are a fair representation
of the Circumstances of the South ? So far
as ihe last two years are concerned the re
mark was just. But the future of the city,
and the future of the vast section ol which it
is the commercial emporium, are perhaps not
equally dark. Here we may at least hope to
behold, at no very distant day, notwithsiand
iug the troubles of the country, the popula
tion of the city largely increased, and its
commerce greatly enlarged; but who shall
predict a like resurrection from the vaster
ruiu which overspreads eleven down-trodden
and unhappy States ? A powerful and ma
lignant party must be defeated and destroyed
before the latter event can ever take place;
and to defeat or destroy that party the South
has nothing, under God, but its own truth
and patience, and the returning reason and
justice of the deceived and prejudiced North.
Well, let the South cherish that truth and
exercise that patience ; the great eouseiva
live party which is gaining strength every
day, for the present at least, is best support
ed in I bat way. Meantime, let us of Savau
nah, and the numerous enlighteDed commu
nities allied to her by the affinities ot trade,
confine their attention to their own imme
diate sections, and proceed in the resuscita
tion of their fortunes and the advancement
of llieir social interests.
In the nature of things, the South must
and will eouquer in the battle of principle
which is now going on, for she has truth en
graven upon her helmet, and in the words of
the immortal Jefferson, “Truth is powerful
and must prevail.” The men of straw who
are fighting us to-day, for their own selfish
and inglorious purposes, will be'consumed
ou to-morrow by an avenging fire generated
of the wrath of the people, and there will
no longer be an obstruction to the fraternal
union ot the good,, men and true, North and
South. When this shall be achieved prosper
ily and happiness will reigu throughout the
land, and the ancient liberties of these States,
as banded down to us iu the Constitution ol
our fathers, wifi be restored upon the ruins
of a military despotism.
'flu Canvass la Tennessee.
The political contest in East Tennessee
seems to be progressing encouragingly lor
the Conservatives. Etheridge’s efforts on the
stump ate said to be overwhelming, and are
having a happy effect. Brownlow being phy
sically deficient, one Horace Maynard lias
been attempting to reply to Etheridge, the
immortal Stokes having ingloriously fleet the
field some days ago. Maynard belongs to the
Aminadab Sleek school of politicians, and,
bis efforts are sometimes mtyked by a good
deal of forcible feebleness. He is no match
for the able, eloquent and fearless Etheridge.
The outrages perpetrated by the vile horde
of Radicals in Tennessee upon the defence
less ex-Confeaerates, are becoming so fla
grant aud infamous as to oall forth the ani
madversion of Northern Radical papers.
Forney’s Press, even speaks of the horrible
and atrocious murders committed by tbe
Miscreants as “ unpleasant and indefensi
ble outrages." That is drawing it with a
mildness that noue other thau a Radical edi
tor, commenting upon tbe crimes of Radical
ism, is capable of. No highwayman or mur
derer ever deserved a halter more richly than
do the Browlowites of Tennessee, from their
head man down.
Information fob Mariners.— Tbe Light
house Board gives notice that on and alter
the evening of June 20th next, the light
situated near the entrance ot Littfe Egg Har
bor, New Jersey, will be re-exhibited from
sunset to sunrise. Tbe light will be a fourth
I order fixed light, varied by flashes, and
should be seen in clear weather at a dia
tauce of 124 nautical miles. Notice ig also
given that a fixed light will be exhibited
from the light-house on Low Islaud, inside
ot Arauas Pass, Texas, on and after the 14th
inst. This light is elevated 64 feet above the
sea level, and in clear weather should be
visible 12 miles.
Discouraging.-— I The Macon Board of
Trade recently sent an agent to New York
to endeavor to obtain a loan lor planters to
aid them in cultivating their crops. The
Journal and Messenger publishes a letter
from some of tbe capitalists of New York,
addressed to the Macon Board, in which
they inform that body that they had received
its communication, but conld not make any
arrangements to procure the needed aid.
They assign as reasons the bad results of
business generally, aud previous arrange
ments to aid friends and customers, and ex
press the opinion that the money cannot be
had in New York at this time.
A correspondent of the New York Post
writes from Charleston, South Carolina, that
General Scott, of the Freedmen’s Buren», has
been invited, in goad faith, by influential
men, to represent the Charleston district in
Congress. His acceptance is doubtful. Gen.
Greene, commandant of the post at Colum
bia, is said to have received a similar invita
tion.
The Baltimore Episcopal Methodist ad
vises its Southern friends to buy the English
edition of Lange's Commentary upon the
Bible. The American edition contains —
what no one could guess in a dozen trials—
“a partisan account of General Lee's inva
sion of Pennsylvania.”
A Jewish Government. —We publish in
another column, a brief abstract of the inter
esting proceeding* of a convocation of Jews
in this country. It appears trom the North
ern papers that the Hebrews have loffg had
a complete governmental organization in the
United States. It is said that a form ot go
vernment was established by them in 1864,
for the purpose of guiding the race in Amer
ica. This organization has been in active
operation ever since its establishment, but so
exclusively have Its acts been confined to the
affairs and circles of those immediately in
terested, that the public at large has known
very little of its existence. The business of
this government has now grown so impor
tant that the Executive is about to call for
loans and Issue bonds in the name of thels
raelltish government, bearing seven per cent,
interest. This organization is intended to
co-operate with similar associations in other
parts of the world, the grand object beinga
furtherance of the favorite and traditional
Jewish idea the whole race of Israelites
will be ultimately gathered iu the land of
their forefathers. Then, they believe, tllb
temple of Jerusalem will be rebuilt, prepara
tory to the coming ot the Messiah, to vindi
cate the truth of the religious belief to which
the Jews have adhered tenaciously for so
many centuries. The whole number ot JewiT
scattered abroad throughout the world is es
timated at six millions.

these Lectures will be free to the publio. Farmers
and Planters in Georgia, and other States,'are hereby

From Washington■
Washington, June 15.—The President
has received a memorial from citizens of
Texas, in regard to the restoration of Judges
Bacon and Stribbling, reinstated by General
Sheridan after their deposition by the Legis
lature. The memorial says: “The military
commander at El Paso disregarded the laws
of Texas, denied to county oflloers the right
to execute the State laws, refused to recog
nize the officers appointed by Governor
Hamilton, and that he appointed magistrates,
with authority to render judgments and issue
executions without allowing debtors the stay
provided by law.” It also states that “Ba
con is unfitted by lack of learning for the po
sition;” also, “that property of citizens of
El Paso county, Texas, baß been confiscated
and sold since the close of the war, under
processes issued by the Federal District
Court of New Mexico.’’
The securities held by the United States
Treasury in interest for the National Banks,
reported to-day, are as follows; For circu
lating notes, $340,586,500; for deposits ol
public moneys, $38,983,950. During the
week there has been received at the Trea
sury from the printer, $495,438 05 in frac
tional currency. There has been forwarded
Jo the Assistant Treasurer at New York,
•$100,000; to the United States Depository
in Pittsburg, $40,000; to the National Banks,
$109,303 65; total, $249,303 65. Amount
of National Bank currency issued during the
week, $75,650; in actual circulation at this
•date, $298,150,929. The amount of frac
tional currency redeemed and destroyed at
. jpattmebt Sifting 1 the week was
$384,600.
The Internal Revenue receipts to-day were
$745,350 94, making the total amount for
the week ending to-day, $4,168,549 28 and
total since the beginning of the present fis
cal year, $256,201,336 86. The amount of
gold in the Treasury of the United States
to-day was $103,000,000, of which $18,000,-
000 has been deposited by parties who hold

to the Government.
The Louisiana National Bank of New Or
leans, on its own voluntary application, has
been discontinued, as a depository for the
public moneys and financial agent of the
United States.
It is understood in official circles that tfie
Attorney General, in his opinion, just
prepared, holds that the reconstruction- acts
provide for two governments, military and
civil that both are to be obeyed, and that both
are provisional, but to cease when a re
organization of the State government takes
place. He also takes the position that the
military is only to protect all in their rights
of personal property and for the preserva
tion and the suppression of violence and
crime. There is no authority in the law for
the removal by the military commanders ol
the proper officers of the State, neither ex
ecutive nor judicial, or the appointment of
their successors, but is bound to protect the
civil officers, a military commander being re
garded as a conservator of the peace and
not an abrogator of the law.
A |jury was obtained in the Surratt case

A NEW AND GRAND EPOCH IN MED
ICINE-
Dr. Maogiel is the founder of anew Medical Sys
tem I The qu&ntitarians, whose vast tuternal doses
sufepl>le tbe stomach and pMalyze the. bowels, must
precedence to me man vtio restores health and
appetite, with from one t'o two of his extraordinary
Pills, and cures the most virulent sores with a box
or so of his wonderful and all-healing Salve. These
two great specifics of the Doctor are fast supersed
ing all the stereotyped nostrums of the day. Extra
ordinary cures by Magqiel’s Pilld and Salve have
opened the eyes of the public *to the inefficiency of
the fso-called) remedies of others, and upon which
people have so long blindly depended. Maggiel’s
Pills are not oi the class that are swallowed by the
dozen, and of which every box full taken creates an
absolute necessity for another. One or two of Mag
glel’s Fills suffices to place tho bowels in perfect or
der, tone tbe stomach, create an appetite, and ren
der the spirits light and buoyant.
There is no griping, aud no reaction in tbe form
of constipation.
If tho liver is affected, its functions are restored
and of the nervous system is feeble,,it is invigorated.
This last quality makes the medicines very desirable
for the wants of delicate females.
Ulcerous and eruptive diseases are literally extin
guished by the disinfectant power of Maggiel’g Salve.
In fact, it is here announced that
MAGGIEL’S BILIOUS DYSPEPTIC AND DIAR
RHOEA PILLS
cure where all all others fail.
While for Burns, Scalds, Cuts and all abrasions of
the skin
MAGGIEL'S SALVE
is infallible

this paper are warned not to purchase MAGGIEL’S
Pills or Salve unless the name of J. H AYDOCK, pro
