Harris for re-election ns Representative of our District in Congress. Though we opposed the nominal ion of Mr. Harris, supporting the claims of our section of the District and of our personal friends, we shall now sup port. the nomine# heartily. Wo have never denied his personal worth, or that ho has heretofore represented the District acceptably and faithful ly, and we therefore have no objec tions that can stand against the pronounced choice of the jmrty. Let us ail forget or overcome the differ ences as to sectional or personal pref ereneesthat have heretofore divided us, and sustain Mr. Harris as the only man who can now make a claim to Democratic support. There can be little doubt of his re-election if the Democrats nil over the District will do their duty to their party and their principles, N out ii Carolina, as well as Geor gia, is making gratifying progress in cotton manufacture.

Russia has covertly aided Servia from tho beglnniug, and has by this means strengthened the sym pathies springing from a common religious creed. Bho has convinced the Servians that she is their sole political fjfiend—tha only povyer that desires their independence of Turkey, The other powers go so far as to de sire for Servia freedom of religion and a local government freo to a great esteut of Turkish authority; but they do not wish tho indepen dence of Servia or any other Turkish principality—they want to preserve the integrity of Turkey as a bur to Russian encroachment ami advance towards the Mediterranean. Their mediation contemplates the preven tion of the deprivation of any of the political and religious rights hereto fore enjoyed by Servia, but at the same time the maintenance of Turk ish authority. The question Is whether Turkish bride and passion will, on the one side, mako Turkey insist on depriv ing Servia of rights which the West ern powers wish her to retain; or whether, on the other baud, Russia will influence Servia to demand more than tho Western powers are willing for her to require. Out of these con flicting purposes arid interests may arise the long apprehended involve ment of other European powers in the difficulty. The coullict between Turkey and Seivia now ftppeurs to have reached a stage that must af ford on early solution of these prob lems. Either England and the other Western powers must now restrain Turkey to the requirement only of such conditions as Russia will per mit Servia to accept, or Russian In fluence will constrain Servia to con tinue the war to an extremity that the Western powers will resist. We will probably be quickly informed of the next important movement. In this connection tho ‘’Will of Pe ter the Great,” which wo re-publlsh od tho other day, becomes interest log, as showing the traditional pol icy and designs of Russia. Whether It was really written by the great Pe ter, or was the production of some later ambitious Russian who desired to give the sanction of sogreata name to n paper really representing the feeling of far-seeing Russian states men, it cannot be denied that Russia has adhered to its programme; and that the present occasion is one on which she may manifest in a most notable manner the continued adher ence to it. Till; VKI.U-OW FF.VKIt. LATEST BE TOM'S FBOM SAVANNAH. From the Macon Telegraph of Friday.) Additional refugees have arrived from Savannah since our lust issue, aud all bring the burrowing intelli gence that tlie contagion is still spreading. The number of uew eases is variously given, uiso tIA) deaths far Wednesday night and Thursday morning, up to tho departure of the Central train, As our iuformantsdis agree in their iigures, we will not state them, but refer our readers to the telegraphic report, which is more apt to be correct. Among tlm deaths from yellow fe ver we notice the names of Frank G. Ash and Wm. 0. Ferrill, both pro mising young men. The former had just completed his eighteenth yoar lost month, and the latter was but a few weeks from college. He was a son of the late JotiuC. Ferrill, a gen tlemau well known in Unuuuial cir cles throughout the South. The mortuary reports for Wednes day show that there were twenty-live interments, of which twenty-two were yellow fever pases, being a decrease of eight in the total number of inter ments, and an incrouse of one in the deaths from yellow fever, as compar ed with the previous day’s report. The News of yesterday, speaking of assistance received from abroad, buys ; "In this hour of sad affliction, in the midst of suffering, desponden cy and gloom, the manifestations of heartfelt sympathy and generosity which reach us from far and near— from our sister cities and towns of tho South, and from tho great cities of the North—coll for our deepest gratitude. Wherever the cry of dis tress has reached, it has been re sponded to not only iu words of earn est sympathy, but by material aid for our suffering and destitute people.” Telegrams were received Wednes day from Jacksonville, Fla., from Hon. G. R. Jones, Mayor, stating that collections had been made in that city for the relief of the destitute of Savannah, and supplies Shipped. Messrs. A. S. Bell & Cos,, or Albany, Ga., telegraphed stating that they had collected a considerable amount, and asking what disposition they should make of the funds, in their bauds. A reply was returned re questing them to purchase poultry and ship by express. From Atlanta, 00l 8. M. Inman, Chairman of the Atlanta Benevolent Association, telegraphs that $1,500 had been raised for tlm relief of Sa vannah, also gave notice of a ship ment of flour. The Macon Benevolent Association sent, one coop of ducks, two coops of pigoous, one coop of chickens, and one box of cordials, jellies, etc. The several absent physicians have returned, among them wo notice Drs, Waring and Thomas. Tho corps of nurses has been reinforced somewhat, arrangements have been made for keeping the drug stores open through tho night, nnd indeed everything within human power is being done to arrest tho plague. Several additional stores have been taken tu Macon by Savannah firms, and their opening’may bo daily look ed for. Mr. 8. L. Brown states, through theHandefsville Herald, in answer to a query, that in moving a house, if the house rests directly on rollers three feet in circumference, tho building moves six feet with every revolution of tlie rollers; but if the house rests on axles in the rollers, it will move only three feet with each revolution. Farmers living below Abbeville, in Henry county, complain that they qave suffered considerably from the long dry spells. Several tell us that the trees in theif neighborhoods, in some instances, had been killed by the drought.. Not more than half crop* will bo made in Ithe localities referred to.— Eufaula Times. I : ftwnruiml<tn<l.| jhliknjof the Times: Up clearer illustration of the truth of, any statenfcent, as to the temj>er of tliocc who iUNHUne the right to con trol the people by party machinery, could be afforded, than that which is to be found in tho fire that has been directed against Bio, ffinoc I ad dressed myself through your column! to the gentlemen who have expressed a wish that 1 should become a can didate for Congress. My litter was respectful in its tone; there was no! a personal allusion in it; it presented views respecting tho stato of the country, entitled, us it seemed to me, to consideration; and it expressed my willingness to submit my name to tlie people, without first asking leave of a Convention, It is not my purpose to reply to the censures of those who seek to perpetuate the ascendancy of tho seif-constituted bodies which have so long controlled the people. They are as baseless as they are ungenerous. But it is proper to state distinctly the ground upon which I stand, and to vindicate the great principle which I have asserted : the right of the peo plo to act for themselves, indepen dently of the dictation of rings, cliques, concusses, or any other con trivance to control their free action. Never was there a better time to try this great issue, tho supremacy of rings against the supremacy of the people, than tho present. The State of Georgia will give u great ma jority for the candidate of the Demo cratic party for the Presidency, and its candidate for the Gubernatorial chair; there is no candidate of tlie Republican party for Congress; the field is clear. It is the right of the people to choose between those who stund before them as candidates for Congress, both upholding the policy, the measures, the great national is sues of the Democratic party. They are to decide who slmll represent them. lam ready to übido the re sult. Tho attempt to make it appear that my course is hostile to tlie inter ests of the Democratic party, is at once unjust, ungenerous, and un worthy of a great cause. Having stated that my political opinlohs, early formed and freely ex pressed in Congress, urul before t lie j people, have undergone no change, 1 I am charged with a purpose to de coy tho members of the Democratic party into my support, while it is well known that I have always is en a Whig. It is true, that I was a Whig; I followed the banner of that greut party from tho day when it was first displayed, until it wont down in tho conflict of 18(10. I may borrow Grattan's expression in re gard to|the brief existence of Irish in dependence: “I stood by its cradle; I followed its hearse.” I canvassed tho State of New York in tho event ful year that saw Mr. Lincoln borne into tlie Presidency by tho triumph of a powerful sectional party. The day before that overwhelming defeat of the South, I wus the guest of Mr. Fillmore at Buffalo, and leaving his table, I went to a large hall and ad dressed a great concourse of people, iu behalf of tho Bell and Everett ticket. From that day to this, I have stood in tlie ranks of the Democratic party, where thousands of old Whigs stuud with me. It is idle to attempt to show, that I antagonize tlie Demo cratic party, because J decline to up hold a system of party machinery, that lias alroady lasted too long; that haa repeatedly thwarted tho will of the people; and that is for the last time striving to control the great, powerful, free masses, who will henceforth assert thoir independence of such dictation,as Samson burst the withs that bound his limbs. lam right, dome what may, I shall stand up for the great principles that I have asserted. No misrepresenta tions can move me; no opi>osition can intimidate me. I look with un shaken confidence to the rosult. Of course, I desire to succeed in the caurass upon which I am about to enter ; but if I had no personal inter est in it, I should contribute what I could to give a complete triumph to the principle that the people are supreme. The best service that any one can render at this time to the Democratic party, is to deliver it from the power of the rings that have too long dominated over it. No freo government can iong maintain the spirit of liberty, that submits to the domination of a few men who con trol the people for tho advancement of thoir own ends. As I have already said, I have steadily endeavored to advance the policy, the measures and the candi dates of the Democratic party since the war. My relations to that party have undergone no change, but I resolutely refuse to acknowledge my allegiauee to the rings that undertake to control its action. I have expressed my willing ness to submit my name to the peo ple ; I shall adhere to that position, and I am confident that the people will vindicate their right to act for themselves. One great recommendation of Mr. Tilden is, that he proposes to reform the Government; to restore it to its former simplicity and purity, nnd to give the country an economical ad ministration. He has broken more rings than any man who has yet un dertaken to control public affairs. I cannot expect to escape the oppo sition of those who live in the suu shine of party favor; who tolerate no independence of thought or ac tion, and whose power would perish in the very hour that tlie people rise to an active control of their own Government. 1 may be misunder stood by some, aud misrepresented by others; but I hope to advance the cause of free government, whatever opposition I may encounter. It may be an unjust and uugenerons opposi tion ; but I shall appeal directly to the people. All that I ask is| that they shall hoar me. I shall hope to meet the nominee of the convention in the presence of tho people, and I am (gjn lldeut that we shall bo able to con duct tho canvass in the spirit that ought to characterize the discussion of great public questions, that affect, not only the success of the party, but the nobler and moro important inter ests of the Republic.

Clnctiinitt'ftnqfilrer.r The Russian Galon, tho most influ ential and heat informed paper iu the empire, writes iu astrain highly indi cative of the latent animosity always existing between the Russian and the German people, however close may be the .alliance between the two courts. The Golds says that it is in possession of proof that Germany is secretly perfecting her means ot tak ing tho field ut u moment’s notice, and bitterly accuses her of desertion iu the matter of tlie Berlin note and the tendency she manifests to support a settlement in the East upon terms to which Russia is hostile. Zeilung vigorously replies that the alliance of the two powers is not an essential to Europe, and it sees no reason why it should not be exchanged for another. Of the war that will close the last act of the great drama of the Eastern ques tion, it says; "Russia, of course, will endeavor to gather round her all the Sclavonic races, and, with the as sistance of this confederacy, attempt to Impose her will upon t,lie world. This cannot bo permitted; such an effort cau easily be frustrated by an alliance between Austria, England and Germany, and tlifs union be tween the greatest naval power and the greatest military power on the earth, thus seconded by Austria, can easily teach the disturber of Eu ropean peace that her overweening ambition must bo restrained within proper limits. Russia,” it adds, "may possibly rely upon the aid of France, but in everything she Ims said or done upon this subject has proved that the Duo Do Gazes, supported by the general wish of the country, will never willingly be dragged into the Eastern complication. Even with the aid of France, the Russian people, semi-barbarous, and with their mil lions scattered over a wide and thin ly-populated area, could never hope of withstanding tho might of the coalition that would thus be arrayed against her.” — *' s In tlm model buildings in London, provided by the beneficence of the late George Peabody, tlie death rate is only twelve annually in every 1,000, while the parish rate is twenty-four and a half, SLADE’S SCHOOL for BOYS, COH?MHI N, GA.
