AtLonco was mads ia oar dispatches, tbs other day, to tbs appointment of an investigating oommltteeto Inquire into tbs facta of tbs difioalty between Henry Ward Beecher and Thsodore Tilton. It appears from tbs publications in the New York papers of Hatorday that Beecher himasif selected the members of the ooeemlttee, end made a personal appeal to each of them to terra ; -also that they art ait ammb«s of btaaharth and eoetety. This eeleotlofc of MUbera of bis own congregation exoloaivaly may be accord ing to eharoh usage; bat it is evident that, nnder the eirenmetaaces, itdsee not give Tilton an equal ohanoe. Tin ■ Montgomery AdttrUetr mentions n rumor that a new Badioal paper ia to ba started ia its city in s day or two. There are two Itadioai papare there now, bat it seems that one faction of tbe party is not yet accommodated. The report ia that Holland Thompson, oolored, Is to be tbe editor of the new paper, and the Adter. titer says that if he runs tbe paper on the seme line with a epeeob be made a few nights ago, ba will make tbe fur fly from aonae of his brethren. We infer from tbe word “far" that it la some of the so-called white brethren that Holland is after. We entreat him to be merciful to oar friend of the State Journal An exciting soene was enacted in Grant pettah, tan, on Thanday afternoon last, caused by a proceednre not exaotly ac cording to taw, bat one which we cannot wonder at in view of the political parse- oationa to which some of the people of that pariah have been subjected. The only wonder ia that personal vengeance, smarting under s sense of injoalioe and tyranny, does not oftaner get the better of men's discretion and reverence for taw. On this occasion, when the steamer Bart Able touched at a landing on Bed river, near Oolfax, a body of men boarded her and demanded one of her passengers, Baford Blunt, a Htate Senator. The Captain interceded, and Blunt took refuge in his state room, locking the door. Finding that persuasion would do no good, the Captain rang the bell for the boat to be backed oat into the stream, end the invaders, when abe began to move, jumped ashore, greatly to tbe re lief of tbe terrified and no doubt oon- saienoe-amitten Senator, it may be that another prosecution will follow this sot, and we notice it chiefly in anticipation of more trouble about it. Ton New York World otamiflea the United States Senators to show tbs prob abilities of early party changes in the body. Of the Senators whose terma ex tend beyond the 4th of March next, 81 aro Bepnblioan and 16 Opposition. To the Opposition it adds G newly-eleoted Senators from California, Connecticut, Kaaaaa, Maryland, Ohio and Virginia, though the new Senators from California and Kansas were net sleeted as Demo- erala, but sa Independents, This makea 21 Opposition. The World adds five more as certain from Delaware, Missouri, Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia— making 26. Of tbe 18 remaining States that have to elect Senators next winter, the Opposition moat get 12 to give them a majority—an acquisition which the World thinks possible and it considers the ohanoe of the Oppo sition In each of these 18 States, exoept Vermont, as good as that of their oppo nents. We do net, and wonld be well satisfied with the aseuranoe that tbe Op position can carry half of them. These 18 States are Florida, Indiana, Iiouiaiana, Maine, Maaaaohaaetta, Michigan, Minna- eota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont and Wisconsin. It is now certain, however, that the Itadioai majority of two-thtids in the Sen ate will be lost after the 4th of Msroh next, and tbs strong probability is that the Bepublicans will not have a majority of more than ten or twelve in tbs Senate after that time. A full Senate oontalna seventy-four members. Ttaa Hunts rills AdaotaU, the Bepabli- ean paper of North Alabama, aad oldest In the State, publishes the following dec larations of a negro masting held in its etty: “Any Bepnblioan who is opposed to the Civil Bights bill, had better leave the oonntry. He is bound to go under." “Besolved, That we shall not give our support to say candidate who ia not in scoord ind who does not openly to fil* <*. **>• civil Bights bill. Also the following note sent to the editor by the teacher of a colored school in Hunts villa: “Stop my paper 1 Your editorial of last week is not consistent with the Be- pnbttann party or the oolored people." The editor, commenting on tbe above, nays that if support of the Civil Bights bill ia to be considered a teat of Bepobli- ■ wmm i, ha WflHMw counted out; that be was HKpKfla man and expeots to die one; thinks "white people have some rights that black people abohld respect’’; that tbe editor him heard of no while ilepebllcaa in his pgglo^pbqfi in favor of tee Civil Bigkta bUR ftc.pt those whehre candidates ter office, Bo. TU TXtTH IT. The Rational RrpuUimn at the 10th instant, published at *■— f wall-written editorial, in whiob it ad rises its readers to “shut Georgia," and cites aa a justification for its advise the article headed “The Fourth,” which appeared in " ana cneenng words, the tbe Exqoaas-Su* some eight days Ago. 0< *» iD 8' t**n, “te» Bebels" who . . ** * ** htil the manhnn/1 Inilnkt sa»i-..tiL.Tr.i After a complimentary notice of this pa per, the Republican, with a shrewdness that ia admirable—bat in tbis tnstthee mlsdireoted—gives several quotations from the article referred to, aad then aaya: “Georgia has become the last stronghold of tea Damociacy—the last ditch of the rebellion:—of its ignorant prejudice and undying hatred i”. and again, “Georgia ia evidently no pleas tor any Northern men—Democrat of Kepeb- liean—to go to, unless be wiabea his life endangered and bla wife insulted by the brutal, igabmat classes who arrogate to themselves tbe position of leaders and assassinate every one who differs from teem.” The Republican shrewdly giver the whole matter a political turn, and one that ia so ill-founded that we moat beg it to give this statement as wide pufaiMty us it did tbe other, and we kbow that, strongly partisan aa tbe Republican ia, its spirit of fair ploy wilt induce H to do so. Hare ia the truth of It, and it wiU be seen at once that much of the harm done us since we have been Booth bean by the ostensible supporters of the Administration. Aa we first ant aounaed, we made the EwquiaBO-Stm a thoroughly independent paper—a news paper devoted to the material progress and political rights of the State and sec tion we had msdWour home. We had been publishing our paper but a short tims when we began to Idas subscribers, bnt they lived in Alabama and held oflloes under the Bepnblioan rule of that State. The first insulting letter we ever received from Georgia was from a naan who was an applicant for a prominent Fedeiil ap pointment. Bnt tbe dropping of our paper, and the writing of tatters by igno rant Federal applicants for office, did not begin our tronblea. While Georgia has been law-abiding and paaeeful, Alabama— tbs State just over the river ftom Oolnm- baa, and tha ona which so strongly sup ports the Administration—haa been the •oene of lawlessness unchecked,end mur der unpunished. Against these fearful crimes we raised our voiee and shouted for Juatloe. Three-fourths of tbe man. derers and all the State and ooaoty judges and officials wars Bapublioana; bnt there seemed no jnatice,no safety to property or life, and onr denunciations brought down on us all the wrath of these officials, and all the venom of the aoonaed and their friends, who in nearly.avasy instance are supporters of tbe Administration, St’Hiia adventurers who take their obanoesirlth the party that promises suoaess. Wo have” one-half our subscribers in Alabama, and' while we have lost many of our so-oalled Bepublioan readers, we have gained from the other class, and this while we have oars, fully avoided linking ourselves to either party, though the Republican asserts to the contrary. We have been bullied, lied about, threatened and an effort mdse to aasaainate us,but ih every pass the trou ble has emanated from the raiders from Alabama, aided by their sympathisers of the same class hare. It may ba a triok of the Bepublicans to. drive us away and so make political capi tal, because we live in e Demoorctio State; indeed, ii is tbs oommon-aonae view to take of It, for the Democrats wonld ljave everything to loaa and the Bepubliocns everything to gain by our leaving under such oircumstanoss. The ao-oalled sup porters of the Administration imagined, because we cease from the North, we would fight their battles; indeed, some of them intimated this in the first flush of a familiarity that has bsoome ioy cold. But while we love the Union.and obeyH* lawe, and will go for any gaod man for office, we cannot support the great mass of unprincipled adventurers who ding to tha Bepublioan ship, tike barnacles, at tached only while they are nourished. Bnt this is not eU While we like and rc- epaet General Grant, we have a thorough dislike for many of the political leaders in South Carolina, Alabama, Florida, Missia- sippi, Arkansas and Louisiana. At great expense to ourselves, we had a correspon dent in New Orleans—a Bepublioan who had grown sick of Kellogg’a infamy, ’fra got all the facts we could and sent to New Orleans targe extra editions. Bnt our paper was suppressed there; the polioe prevented the newsboys from car rying it; and onr correspondent had to flee for his life nnder threats of assassina tion from Bspublicans. These are the facts, and we might uito them by the hundreds. Should we be forced to leave the South, we will plaoe muah of tbe blame at the door of the man who imagine tholr fealty to the administration is a license to inaolsooe and lawlsmnam, Aa we have often said, we wish from our heart Dem ocracy was dead and with it the dominant party. Both have outlived their useful ness. The party to.whioh we will give allegiance is not yet born. As to the advice to "shun Georgia,” it is good, particularly to oarpet-baggers and lawless men; but to those who come to make this their boms and to grow rich on its products, and not on its blood, there ia no better State in tbs Union; wad the father you get bock from the vicinity of Alabama's Judges and the contagion of Alabama lawlessness aad murder, the bettor it is. We do not mean to any there are not idle, thriftless men hem, as there are in every Stats, nor to assert that every man you mast loves a Northern man Uksa brother. Them am man impoverished by the war, and now unable to reclaim their wealth, who naturally fool Bore, and there am idle men whom one meets swaggering about pubtio plsoss.and cursing Yankees; bnt it wonldbs a mis take, nay a wrong,to class either element, mom pettionlarty the tatter, as a type of the Southern aeon, or an exponent of Southern feeling. Them is muoh in Georgia that ws< would change, but much of the, fqntafrjtellflrffi) ag|ligd hund«ed» of words aa t)ugr Tereprtaeenosiby the Principal.

This ia ibe truib, and we tell it with 1 a feeling of regret^ Again we say, would that Gen. Grant oonld come South, and in such on event, we will promise tbe Repub icon, should it send a representative, the wannest reception be will receive will be at tbe bands of, Georgia's law-abiding, hard-working, ex-Uonfederate soldiers, and these ere_pot the men who talk about “Chivalry” in an offensive sense. A. B. C. EltfilnTira AT ROWERT . ACADEMY. Miter Enfuirtr-Sun .'—Friday, tha 19th ef June, 1874, was .one day that will baismeaebered by many.who enjoyed it amid the rural scenes of .Talbot county. From your standpoint. aa editor and -orate* of the dqy, the publiq may get the benefit of the impressions which you re- ceived.

A few minutes past if o’clook we reached Bowery Academy. From crops o’ar,st(entioh was attracted to tlio crowds of people already assembled. And truly such s concourse of people is Ssffi6ni'*9efr1n : any Tarsi district of the South. The ixltelUgence of nearly a aoore of counties was reprottcnled in the multitude by which the beautiful school-room was throngSd and'surrounded.

We were at once struck With the calm composure ' they manifested. Onr astonishment gave plaoe to the absolnte Wonder at the rapidity, aconraey and thoroughness of their work. Tho answer to each question propounded, as well os the euuuoiation of each taw ia aeeh science, was followed by the olesr, distinct voice of the Principal, in the short interrogatory “Why ?" This short, trite, blit alt important word, was the sub sequent of each troth asserted or methe- maticat operation performed. Nor was there a moment's hesitation. Clearly, distinctly and deliberately was given a reason for everything.

When rhetoric was |he subject upon the tuple, to the gratifying astonishment of all who were unacquainted with the system of instruction at Bowery, a small boy presented a diagram in which by the picture of a natural tree he traoed the English. language through all its laby- rintbiochanges from the Hebrew, giving a succinct history, with the various changes made, the names it has assumed, with the dates of each. Thoroughness was the watehword in Buglieh grammar, philosophy, mathematics, Latin, Greek— indeed ia evety branch introduced. We thought sorely these classes are selected for their profloienoy.

This little army of eighteen (I had almost said in- to quantity, profusion is the word. As to quality, I know no word that will expri it, unless I am allowed to say, "It was too good to talk or write ebont.” The afternooa’e exercises, notwith standing the exoposive beat, were con ducted before an earnest mnltitnde, many of whom stood apon their feet for boar*. At 6 o'clock r. u. the people repaired to atargechnrob, situated a few hundred yards from tbs Academy, and listened to an Address, .to whioh one objection only eau correctly be urged—namely, it woe too abort.

In conclusion, if any of your readers desire to see the workings of live teachers and a school where success is expected on ly as the result of earnest, indefatigable tabor, let them visit Bowery Academy at any time when the sobool ia in session. Oh for more such schools! Hare we saw end were proud of the' two little sons of W. C. Hoff, of Muscogee. We feel as- ■nrod that their parents were rejoiced when these little boys were examined up on their studies for hours with scaroely a hesitation. There were many pupils from different counties, cud some from Ale* barns. If such schools constituted tbe predominating feature of Georgia, it would require no prophet to prediot her future.
