Hon. Jefferson Davis. A short time ago, Mr. Davis, in pas through the city of Atlanta, was a upon hy a large number of citizen?, . induced to deliver a short speech, words had scaredv fallen from his when the whole Northern Radical p is ablaze with indignation, crying Klux, treason, tho rebellion again, and such stuff. Sc-me of our own weak-ki papers are terribly frightened, and tl it very imprudent in ?lr. Davis to sj to the" people. Then what can our pe do if thev cannot speak ? It is almost only right left us. Are -we to bec mutes? Must we hear no word from great and good men ? Must we listel no speeches unless uttered by.our ene; and?opponents'? Can but one side of questions of the day be spoken on ? inc liberty of speech to be taken from Why should pot Mr. Davis, or any ma this broad land, speak to the people wish to hear him, whenever or whei* he mav choose? And when he.spt why should he not utter his: sentim freely and fully ? What is the ha Why shall he be compelled foreve: smother his feelings, to conceal his vi or, to please his mighty conquerors, to ter' falsehoods ? Are' "the Radicals ai of the truth ? Are they afraid for the pie to hear it ? Where was the trej in the speech? We could not see it. simply uttered the sentiments of nin nine hundredths of the people of Geoi who have brains to think. We, (hepeople, wish to hear our g men speak ;' we wish to know their v upon the question of the day ; Hes knows they are of moment enough tc to make us wish to hear all ? we can ; wish their advic **.nd when they . can no more, we wish to herr, as we did f Mr. Davis, some words of cheer and 1 for the future. The present?s dark encA and we want, words of encouragement t the lips of those in .whom we-'have- cc dence. We.have been accustomed to s things all our lives, we have, been .ra that way. But it sifems that we-are willingly allowed this privilege.. Let of our genuine statesmen spea?i a wore ?ur people, and the whole Yankee nu cri^3 treason ! Ku-K?ux! another rebel coming ! Let Gen.' ToomBs speak of il na Charta and the same cry comes fi Yankee land. He Speaks of liberty ic enslaved people, and they call it ?rei: Let-Judge Linton Stephens argue in own defence, and speak of constitutic liberty, and. they cr}* rebellion." 'But us not heed the cry ; we are right,'and will insist upon raising our voices in crise of right.

Time's- Revenges. An interesting element in the extraordi nary strength of jthe. Greeley movement is the people's belief' that Mr. Greeley has not been treated properly by Presi-^ dent Grant. . . <? When Grant esme into office, his best friends hoped that he would suitably re cognize the great sennces and. merits of the founder of the Republrc.m party. Mr. Greeley nad labored'long, and had body, mon to do in building up the party and in shaping its policy than any . other living man. "But for him, indeed, Grant could never have been President- ; and yet, in distributing the honors and rewards of power, Grant paid him no attentio n 'what ever. For our part we had hoped that he . would at least offer him the place of Min ister to England, and we asked him for this and for nothing else. But he offered him nothing. He passed- him by in neg lect and conferred' the great distinctions of the Government- upon men who had given him presents. . . .This contempt for Mr. Greeley the peo ple resent. They think it would not be a bad plan to to"take this homely. Republi can, whom the Military Ring have reject ed, and make him President. -What would Grant think of his own conduct if the man whom he would not make Minister to England because he had rfot given him a 'present; should now be chosen to succeed .him at the White House ?-N. Y. Sun. . . , - \ Melancholy Railroad Catastrophe. * The'Wheeling (West Va.,) Intelligencer reports that the Cincinnati and Pittsburg .'xpress going west over tte Baltimore and Ohio railroad on Tuesday -morning, about i mile east of Glover's Gap, ran over and inst'antlv killed a young man . of perhaps eighteen, and a child- of five or six years if age, which he was trying to-rescue from dancer. The young man was niend ng a fence not far from the track, and the '.:hild; whose brother he was, appears to '~ve left the house with the intention of crossing the road and going to bim. \'The child; when seen . by .the engineer, was .walking-along beside fhe road at a safe 'istance. When" the brother".saw the ram cqniing he ran down- towards the -lad. apprehending that the" child 'might attempt- to cross before the train. As thc- train approached*,. the child,. Bee r's" its ^brother coming on the opposite .ide of the road, turned, with a. strange \tality, and started to run across tie rack- "directlv in front of the engine to neot him. Tho brother sprang upon the track to snatch it away, and in an instant the locomotive was. upon them and -they -.ore crushed beneath its ponderous wheels. The train was stopped as soon as possible, nd all we?t back to see the sad spectacle. The child's body was dreadfully mangled, md the upper portion of the young man's ..ead had been crushed completely away. The father and mother had come out to . he roadside and were bending over their ?ead children and uttering heart-piercing lamentations. It was a. scene to melt .carts of stone, and many were moved to oars. STRUCK *BY LIGHTING.-A friend wri ting to us from Kock Hill, under date of Thursday last, says : " During"the heavy rain here yesterday evening, Mr? Dilling .la'm, the telegraphic operator at this - .ilace, was struck by lighting. He was shting with his right arm resting on the operator's table and'near the instrument. Ine electric current struck him on his right side, penetrated through tri body and passed off his right leg, breaking the *kin in several places, ripping his panta lons and tearing open hw shoes. . He was loralyzed and speechless for a time, but has s?n^e recovered the use of himself, .nd is doing well.-Yorkville Enquirer. :-!-* . ??^t-. THE ARKANSAS DEMOCRACY AND THE .' NEW DEPARTURE."-A few days since .i meeting of the Slate Democratic Execu ting Committee was held at Little Rock, Arkansas, and put'forth a declaration that '. it would be unwise, impolitic and cer tain of defeat, to resurrect the . issues on which we were beaten in "6S, and that the party is willing to let the questions ari sing out ol' the war rest where they are." this is what the Yirginia papers designate ss the .' Walker movement," by which the conservative element in that State recover ed control of public affairs. THE PEACH CROP.-The New "vork Daily Bulletin of the 14th. says: The first lot, of peaohes this season in this market came ni last week from South Carolina. They were in rather poor con-' "?ilion : considering which, they brought very high prices : there were ten ordinary crates,.which sold i'rom $13 for first to $6 :"? >r last selections. . -Since then we have had several lots from Georgia, very few, however, being in even fair condition. One ot the first lots from Carolina, coming in a partition chest, sold at- $30. Not more than three or four touching each other this way. they arrive in better condition than in ordinary crates. The prospects in Delaware are, that wc .will have a good crop, but the Jersey crop looks less flat-_ toting, many dropping off. ?--*-<<P?^? ? -; A SICK WEDDING PARTY.-The sickest wadding puny on record was at Fort ge, Iowa-, the other evening. About wa hundred person:'; had been invited to ? .. brate tho'nuptials of a happy couple ?? longing to the F. F. Y.'s. . About nine >'clqok they all sat down to a sumptuous ? as?, of which ic cream was one of the eatures. Nearly all partook of the cream, md m about an hour afterwards three-. ' \ tbs of the two hundred had to be car ried home in intense agony, the town'was ?roused, ali the .doctors''summoned, and consternation was depicted on every coun ??b-mec. The bride end groom were so ?ick they did hoi enjoy av.y more nuptial* :<hat night. Groans and moaning were ?chrd in every household; and it was ?vi that they had all boen poisoned. 'It' turned outthat-th? confectioner, .in mak . .' the cream, csed a copper refrigerator, diich he had failed to-clean properly, and hat. doubtless, caused all-;he trouble. The . ?ueiition of many of the victims was very ri carious ai last accounts. THE BUENOS AYRES PESTILENCE.-j", correspondent' writes the London Times. under date of J-uue 1st : i loft Buenos Ayres pn thc 14th of April ?in?l from thc beginning of the plague un ;J that date had sad experience of every . li, se and detail of ?he calamity. I am, iherefore, enabled lo speak with accuracy \ the subject.. The population./of Buenos Ayres is ibout (from various cause.-, it is difficult to take a census . there) 200,000. The germ Of 'iisea.se was im jarred from Paraguay and Corrientes carly in Januar}'. Up to the* end of ..Marth the whole number of deaths wa.i 20,000. The inhabitants who had the means removed to the country districts, which without?exception, were, and continue to be, free from -the disorder, and the accommodations in the little towns of Flores, Belgrano, &c, were comforta ble and decent in every respect, and there was an abundance of every class of food, ?c. .... There is no mystery as to the cause of this.fatal malady in a city populated as stated above,' and entirely without the most ordinary sanitary arrangements-no roads, no drainage, almost no pure water, no baths, .and a system of cesspools which probably have no parallel in- the history of civilization. The climate is, perhaps, the finest in the world, and its beauty lulled lhe" people into-a careless security, until the filth and the, crowds of the city were ripe and ready to receive and propagate the' insidious disease. The Indians and natives were the chief sufferers. These people live in a filthy and meagre way, hate soap and water, and do not know what ventilation means. The malady is now gradually dechning, and doubtless will 'die during the cold months, from J une to October. Meantime, the authorities are taking active measures td make up for their previous neglect, and the wants indicated above .will soon, be supplied. . .

On Friday last,, the 16th inst., Pius IX, Pope' of Rome* completed the twenty fifth year of his pontificate-tho first Bishop who has sat there for so long a period since the days of St. Peter. The Catholic Church throughout the world celebrated this jubilee with uncommon pomp and splendor, in all the solemnity of its gorgeous and glorious ritual. The history of the Papacy-so .grand and so fascinating i-vovers nineteen cen turies. And that "out of these disem bodied centuries we can to-day . touch something living which has passed down unchanged and intact, something that moves among us and Ls of tho actual present as much as oiirselves, is surely cause enough for wonder! And causo enough to make all other creeds stop to think-to think that Christ's promise to His apostles of unremitting intercom munion is being fulfilled to-day as it Ava? when the catacombs of Rome were the Christian's house of prayer and the maws of lions and tiger's his only certain place of rest ! And cause enough to make all confess that it is as impossible to sepa rate the Popes from the story'of Chris tianity as it would be the Apostles them selves ! And cause enough to make the stern, unyielding, superhuman faith ol' the Catholic Church stilly more immova ble in all its tenets! Pius -IX is not st all triumphant in worldly matters, but still he has spent the test time of quarter of a century in tho chair of St. Peter. Hi's vi carato has been troubled, but not more so than that of many of his? predecessors. Like many of them, he has been hunted from Rome to be brought back, as was Pius VII, in triumph. He is a simple old man, and yet strong, benevolent and fervently pi ous. The weight of years is upon him, but his smile is calm, and the light in his clear eyes is unsubdued. Awaiting the award of God, to whom he fondly ap peals as the guide of circumstances, ho, on Friday hist, received the congratula tions and sympathies of monarchs and potentates, of prince and peasant, of peo .pies and races, with undeviating failli in the final result. * . - From this jubilee of Pius IX, man date a momentous reaction in the tempo ral affairs of the Papacy of nineteen cen turies! .'

If, in its exultation over the general .Democratic acceptance of its "new de parture" notion of platform, the New I York World has a particle of common sense left, (says' the Mobile Register) it will let Jeff. Davis alone. The Southern Democracy have expressed their willing ness to leavo the Northern and Western section of the party to shape the plan of battle for 1872, but thej* have not consent ed to give up any of their own leaders to immolatatipn mujer the piaules of that platform. We are alwaj-s prepared to lind Mr. Davis and his colleagues calum niated in the Radical paper. It is their vocation. But it is simply indecent in Democratic papers like thc World. '1 It may be very politic for the North, and perhaps will tickle here and there a Re publican voter ; but wc warn thc World and the Chicago Times that abuse of a ? man who is no politician, professes to be long to no party, who is without a politi cal "aspiration, and who is simply an ox Southern leader, in misfortrino, is the very reverse df politic in this section ol* j ?he Democratic vineyard. It is a sword with a double edge. If it cuts ono way. in thc North, it cuts-kcenly and deeply in tlie South. While our Northern friends are constantly enjoining prudence upon us of the South, lest we furnish capital for Radical cal lim ni es, would it not be well in them .to practice it themselves? If we have not many ..rights left us, we certainly have some, feelings. What is more practically important than that, we havev otes, too. ? -t -.-o..- . Scnudahmi "tla?uatum. Certainly no President of the United States was ever such a subject of ridicule as is Grant. Hie Northern papers are now universally running a joke in this wis?. . Namely, that Queen Victoria has opened negotiations with our . President to marry her youngost daughter the Princess Beatrice to Prince Fred Grant. " Prince Free!" is a cadet at West Point, and tho newspaper correspondents say that, at the samo timo ho is becomingly reticent on the delicate subject, ho rather encourages tho belief that thc match is really on the tapis. And so they ?un it. And in every conceivable way "Prince Fred" and his august father are made ridiculous. Of tho Princess's immediate forefathers this, it will be remembered, WM written. And a good thing it is : "George theFirst was always reckoned Doll,.and duller George the Second ; And what mortal eyer heard . Any good of George the Third ? When George the Fourth-to hell de scended, Then; thank God ! the Georges ended." Yet notwithstanding all this, we can't help thinkingjtho Princess Beatrice Gulph a heap too good for Prince Frederick Grant. If we were her, we' wouldn't dream, of having him. Bah 1 it is not a pleasant thing in these vulgar days of . the Republic to be the wife, widow, or son of a President. Think of the poor Widow Lincoln (selling her old cloth?s I) and her sons- " Bob" and "Tad." And pow poor Freddy Grant marrying an august British Princess whose fathers haye been kings since the time of Alfred the Great ! --i -i - Kn Klux outrages Growing .Scarce.

May the peace?) dearly achieved be a lasting one." The triumpbant entry was.un precedentedly grand, to the closing scene. Bismarck then approached the Emperor, and asked leave to unveil the statue. The Emperorbqwed and Bismarck mov ed his hand, when the canvass fell from the statue, wh?edriims rattled, trumpets blared, the standards of the guards were lowered toward .the statue, the troops presented arms and cheered loudly, a . salute was fired of one' hundred and one' guris, the church bells broke into-instan taneous ringing, while out of* turmoil the national air resolves Itself. The Emper or, helmet in Hind, then - approached his father's steinend walk ed idowly around it. Bands strtfck' up 4 ' Nun danket All? Gott," and th?Uroops joined in singing the hymn. Tile ceremonies closed with conferring honors on victorious generals. Among them, General Von Roon was made Count of the Empire, and General Von Moltke field marshal of the Imperi alarmy. . LOXODON June 17. Insurrectionary placards have been posted in Paris by another branch of the International. Society, which, disavows connection with incendiarism, but, pro claims to be engaged in a struggle agajnst cowardice and war, and against despotism and monopoly.. ' VERSAILLES, June 1G. The chief newspaper .journalists -who constituted themselves a ^committee to offer a collective ticket composed of non partisan candidates, meet with opposition from Republican journals. Motions submitted by Baze, yesterday, to extend the pokers of Thiers and func tions of the Assembly two years^ were unexpected by Baze's colleagues, .and regarded inopportune. It is thought no action will bo taken upon tlrem'by the Assembly. It is reported that Pyatt bas been ar rested at Lavillette, disguised as a priest General Fabrico presented compliments to Thiers upon the overthrow of thc Com mune. Prince Bismarck has promised to di minish the German army of occupation in France. The amount of tho proposed French long loatvwill, it is now said, be reduced one-fifth. A court-martial assembles next week for the trial of Rochcfort, Ass! and Ros sel. A grand review of ono hundred thousand men. which has been announe ed for tho Cliamps de Mars Sunday next, will bo held at Long Champs. The ru mor which obtained circulation of modi fiedti'ons in thc ministers is authoritative ly contradicted. ' The O?icial journal of to-day says the stoiy that"/ condemned insurgents have been shot m tii0*%bis de Boulogne with mitrailleuses is an- odious and absurd calumny. The Official Journal deities thc report that the Orleans Princes dined with M Thiers, and says: The Princo.dc Joinvillc and thc Due d'Aumole visited M. Thiers unexpected ly. During tlfc interview the President said that although he was once, a Minis ter in thc Government of their fallier, King Louis Philippe, ho was to-day the head ol' the Republic. There was noth ing significHiitin the visit of the Princes. Tliey understand'the past, and accept the present. M. Thiers did himself honor by his bearing during thc interview, and the Republicans were unembarrassed in the presence of those noble and illustri ous Princes." ' PARIS, June IS. The Republican journals have united in a mani, sto to meet thc electoral pro gramme put forth by the Monarchical press. They declare that the Republic is tho onlj- national and legitimate ex pression of national sovcignty; that mon archy implies its abdication, and that they* will ?give their support to candidates who are pledged to maintain the ?tutu quo. A number of natives of Switzerland, taken prisoners during thc last days of tho insurrection, liavctbeen discharged. It is rumored that Olnseret is alive, mid has been arrested. Masses will bc ?-.aid in all churches on Tuesday for the souls of victims of the cfvil war. Crowds of visitors arrive by every train and business is improving. The city is healthy. The Official Journalhas a strong article .ibn.sing a portion of the English press for hostility to:France.. It stigmatizes their misrepresentations as cold-blooded ind cowardly, and charges that some of thc writers, were bri bed during.and since tho war. . VERSAILLES, Juno 10. Thiers, replyhag to appeals of the filth er and mother.;of General Rossel'for mercy, says the law must take its course The press continues to.attack the Bon apartists. Figaro praises Chainbord. The S ede urges union of Republicans against the Prussians, their real enemy, forever cursed. Twenty-five hundred woroon (incendi aries) have been .sentenced to transporta tion to New Caledonia. Gambetta soon returns to France, The Imperial Guard is being reorgan ized, "under tho name of tho Republican Guard. . Favre inform?e) the Assembly that one hundred and eighty thousand French prisoners yot remain in Germany, but are returning at tho rate of thirty-five hundred daily.

JACKSON, ' THOS. JORDAN! ' 1 A. Lr JOHNSON, Committee.. Improvements. Among the improvements recently made to business houses in the city, (says the Constitutionalist, Of Tuesday,) -we desire-to notice'that made tb the store of Mr. JET. L. A. BALK, dry goods dealer. The front has been painted a light green, very pleasing to the eye, and the number of the store, 172, painted in large letters on each side. A conspicuous sign in gilt letters extends over the side walk from building to curbstone. Inside, every thing is neat and orGerly. Mr. Balk is a German, wbo has been doing business here only since 1865, but by his strict and systematic attention to his business has built up a. large and prosperous trade, which continues. to grow. Such men deserve success. . To Make Blackberry Wine. Use ripe berries. To every gallon of the fruitpour half agall?n of boiling wa ter, and let them stand 24 hours. Then pour off the juice (pressing the berries) through a colander into -an open vessel. Strain again through a flannel bag, and to every gallon of juice add two and a half pounds' of good clean migar. Stir it up well and put into demijohns, rilling them entirely. Th?se should be kept full to the brim, and for this purpose a bottleful of tho joice should be reserved, from which the demijohn should bo re plenished daily until fermentation ceases when the Wine should be poured off in an open vessel and clarified in the fol lowing manner : Wash sand (half a pint will be sufficient for five gallons of wine) until the water will run -clear from it. Beat to this the whites of four eggs and stir into tii.e wine. When it has settled, and the wino looks perfectly clear, pour off carefully into demijohns, putting a piece of muslin inside of the funnel. Cork tightly and set. in a cool place Avhcre it will not be disturbed until December or January. A few days befere bottling, have the bottles well washed, dried and sunned. Provide new corks. Have everything in readiness before thc bottling begins, in cluding cement for sealing. Strain the wine again into large pitchers, taking particular care not to turn the demijohn back after beginning to pour from it, as it stirs up thc sediment which is at thc bottom. Cover the inside of the funnel with a piece of muslin before placing ft in the mouth of the bottle,and cork' it im mediately, driving the cork in with a wooden mallet. Never use old corks. Seal carefully with cement, and keep in a cold place, with necks of the bottles clown. THE HORRIBLE FAMINE IS PERSIA. A correspondent ol' the. Levant Herald, writing from Tabreez, April 30, gives an account of the famine, which goes to con firm ihc later telegraphic news of the ex tremities to which thc people have been reduced. The writer says : . . The details which reach us here of the destitution and misery which the drought of-.last year has caused in thc central and Southern provinces of Persia ore fearfully heart-rending/ .That the people are dying of hungtjr even in the st reets ol' the capital is a minor phase ol"this terrible calamity. In Khorassan parents are selling their children as slaves to. the Turcomans in order to keep them alive, and iii Ispahan, as'is said, men have been seized in the act of digging up the corpses to serve as food for their starving families. In Shirazr Kerman and Yezd thc wretched sufferers endeavor to support life on thc grass and roctts which' they mav find in the neigh borhood/and, as might be expected,- pesti-, lenee follows hard on the footsteps of fam ine ; between them, thc half of the king dom of Persia is being rapidly depopula ted.
