WEEKLY PRICES CURRENT. 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. FUNERAL INVITATION. The friends and acquaintances of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Grady are respectfully invited to attend the funeral ofjtheir youpgest son, ERNEST LEE, at 9 o'clock this morning, from their r sidence on Whita ker street, two doors from CharltJu.

Anew and commodious Hall, furnished with requi site appliances, haa been fitted up for the use of this Department. Other auxiliaries, tributary to the en larged methods of instruction in this branch of use ful science, have been Becured.

DORAN A NOLAN, Corner Ball and Bryan streets, ay2l-ltn Opposite Pulaski House, BY TELEGRAPH. 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 certificates thereof, and $85,000,000 belongs 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 to-day, which will secure the trial of the ac cused on Monday. An agent for tbe Pacific Railroad on the California side, has arranged in Washington to obtain from 1,000 to 1,500 colored labor ers on that road. Thad. Stevens has written a letter urgent ly recommending a session of Congress. From New York.

Mendenhall, of Baltimore, gpiajs amounting to.s3yioo,, and .giving iu pajcSenY a worthless tmler on an ‘English bank. The complainant alleged that be was about to depart for Europe, which is untrue. He denies the guilt, and agreed to be ex amined on tbe 24th inst. A grand conoert for the relief of Southern Masons, is to be given at the Academy oi Music on tbe evening of the 27th inst. Jas. T. Brady will also deliver an address. The schemes of tbe Pennsylvania Central Railroad for leasing the Chicago and Alton, tbe Alton and Terre Haute road, excites no •special interest in financial circles.

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.
