Tbe Situation of Georgia.
The course of Congress to the State!
of Georgia, affords a striding iUuatra-j
tion not only of its disregard of Con-j
Blitu-tioiial forms, hut of all harmony
f ' "
?u?* vvuibuiiuiiuj'ox action. x ne w note i
"?-ork of Congressional Reconstruction I
ul the Soutli lu\3 becu "outside olf tho|
Constitution," but in the case of Gear-i
gia, Congress Las superadded to usurpation,
the offence of stultifying itself
? of pronouncing that nugatory which
it hud already declared valid?a State
to be no Stute, which it hud already
admitted to the privileges of equulit %*
and fraternity. This inconsistency
indeed characterizes tlio wbolu work
of Southern Reconstruction.
Prom the foundation cf the Govcrninent
there has been no Constitutional
principle more generally received
or actcd upon, than that of the inde-j
eiruetibility of tho several States coin-1
posing the Amorican TTnion. "OnceI
? State always a State"' was the doe-t
trine as well of Federals nnd Repub-!
licans, Whigs and Democrats. Theyj
ini"ht differ as thov did differ, as to I
^ I
nullification and secession?as to the J
("'onS1 iMlf * !#?!.? - r '
ui cut-n or ail!
of tho States to dissolve the Union?!
but there was no dispute as to tho in-j
tegrity and indestructibility of the;
joveraJ States of the Union. To pre-j
serve that Union as well as the in tog* j
rity of the States, the late war was;
begun and waged, it was supposed toj
a successful consummation. But no!
sooner had tho dominant parly aehie-j
vod tho fruits of victory, than they I
abandoned tho whole ground upon!
which the bat-tie had been fought and !
the victory had been won, and assumed j
tho position of their antagonists that!
tho Union had beon dissolved. They j
went beyond, and held that the
States of tho South had lost their
corporate existence?had become on
}y so much conquered territorw to I
pass again through the processes oij<
re organization, and rc-admijsion ,
The whole South accepts the situa-'i
lion, and is put upon its probation.
Georgia is re-admittcd?becomes oueo
again a State in the Union under all
t.ho forma of Congressional Reconstruction?when
lo! she is once again
turned adrift: turned out of the Union
by Congress. Here is disunion with 1
a vengeaneo?disunion doub'.e distilled.
The whole work of Rocoubtruc- 1
tion is based upon the idea of a dis 1
severed Union?dissevered by anned
violence?hero is a Union dissolved '
lk? r? - "
^uugressional legislation. How
does all this harmouizo with tho theo- 1
ry of our fathers?with even the 1
avowed principles which havo con- 1
trolled tho past policy of Republican- 1
ism? Congress hastakon care to keep '
its scheme of Reconstruction away '
from tho Courts, and wo may bo sure \
that it will guard this double Recon- J
Rtruction from tho inroads of Judicial 1
scrutiny. P
But what will Georgia do? #
Under tho recent Act of Congross 1
GcDoral Terry assumed military 1
rulft of the State, and Governor Bui- ^
1 I
loek issued his proclamation convening
the Legislature on tho 10th 1
inst. at Atlanta. To tho re-ad mission I
of tho State?a re-seating of the ex- (
pelled negro members, and tho ratifi- *
cation of the Fifteenth Amendment. 1
are mado conditions precedent. The 1
Press of the State generally, v;e see, c
opposed the proposition which has 1
been made, that the Democratic mem- '
bers absent themselves, and thus prevent
the forming of a quorum. Thi? |1
jb regarded as a suicidal policy-^-on- 1
tirely ineffective for any good pur- (
pose, and an abandonment of the field 1
of legislation to an unscrupulous par- 1
ty. Tho re-seating of the nogroes 1
and tho adoption of tho Fifteenth 1
Amendment, we suppose, are foregone 1
conclusions. '

Mr. jiiies is a gentleman of fine

anticipate for him a brilliant and useful

Mr. Editor : A pleasant tome 1b jeing
anxiously Bought after by thei1
espectable people for various purposes.
Your correspondent -would advise
all the homeless to remove to
Sreenwood. The schools are under
the supervision of that distinguished
scholar and gentleman, Mr. Jamos L.
Lesly, who is ably assisted by a full
3orps of experienced teachers.

Our merchants are men of undcfatit/ablo
energy and sagacity, and have
increased tho trade of tho place one
hundred per cent, by th? fabulous
prices paid for cotton and other produce
this year. The residents of tho
town ar3 proverbial for their generosity
and kind feelings one to another.
In fact everything savors of
rjcneral prosperity, and before tho
slapse of another twelve months
Greenwood will have larger schools,
wore church members and comforta-l
bio residents than any village in the j
upper counties. Your humblo friend!
predicts that tho combinations in and
\rouud Greenwood will induce rapid I
immigration, which all intelligent-peo-j
[tie much desire. When wo speak of'
\ntc-war prosperity in comparison to!
theso times, other sections groan and
lament, but reader, Greenwood is:
more thriving than at any period of
jcr existence, either temporal or spir-j
mat. >vc have r.o drinking houses,
ating saloons, gambling houses, Lilian!
tables or any such nuisances.
Our young men are constant attendmtsof
tiro weekly prayer meetings,
ind church, and have a "Young men's
>rajTer meeting."
The elderly gentlemen are living j
:ousisteut, worthy christians. j
The huge mass of tho placo woulJ
ram pi o under foot any obsccuo or
lisreputablo character or yt.
The standard of honor and truth
n this placo is unexceptionable.
Vith this honest statement of facts
an w? not invite tho homeless to j
omc among us and he one of us.
Homo one, eoine all, you are heartily
nvited lo come.
"By I he way wo would least forget
o mention the manly conduct and
vorthy bearing of the colored people
n this section. They are consistent
n most of their undertakings, and
iro striving to educate their children
vith the little balance abovo a livelilood.
Their minister serves them
icceptably and has a largo and earicst
membership. We aro disposed
o believe they would become good
itizensif left to act aa their own beU
