We supposed that the libel case of 'HATES -would be worked up into Radical political capital, though no human being would nave-dreamed of such a thing if the offender was not a Northern mon. The dispatch reads as fol? lows: -ii;-. . Tho ease of the State of Georgia vs. John E. EAVCS, editor and proprietor of the Savannah Re? publican, indicted for libelling Solomon Cohen, Congressmen elect, "by charging that' he was a de? faulter, as Postmaster to the United States Govern? ment,-was decided to-day by a verdict of guilty. The Solicitor General and Messrs. Harden and Levy for the State, and Hon. H. T: Fitch, United States District Attorney; and Messrs. II art ridge, Chisoliu .ind Stone for the defence. The case ex? cited gr?it public in-erest from the political issue involved and the prominence of the parties. The verdict is considered as adversely infecting the rights of all Northern men in this community. If the fellow who'sent this North means to say that under the laws of Georgia "Northern or Union men" cannot slander honest Southern men with impunity, he speaks the truth. The man who wishes to claim such-a right here, had better ept o t of the State at once and set up in some Wauk . guard Northern community where character is worth nofhing, and bearing false witness against his neighbors is respectable. If ho means to say that % Chatham county court and jury were influence i oy political prejudice in this case-which he evi? dently does-he simply states a falsehood. Hayes would gladly be a martyr, and wo shall not be surprised to see a Badical m-.vement in Congress for a committee of investigation. [Jfacon Telegraph. The Right Rev. Bishop LYNCH will preach at tho Catholic Church in Augusta, to-morrow morning, atbalf-past 10 o'clock. A STJFFEBEB EX SHEBJTAN'B MABCH.-A memorial was presented to the Senate on the 31st ultimo, from Senor de Palma, the Consul of Portugal nt Savannah during tho rebellion, claiming remune? ration lor property taken bv Sherman's army. He had removedhis family to Winnsboro'S. C., where, as he alleges, they were robbed of $6000 in gold, jowols and wearing apparel, to the total value of *32 474. He complains that his application for re? dress has failed to receive proper consideration at the State Department. ^^^^^^ North. Carolina. Items. OTOB^XHj.l-We have received information to the effect that a few nights since a party of armed men went io the plantation of Mrs. John Walker, of this city? on Bocky Point, and demanded and ob- . t??ned o?ihe negroes engaged to work the place i luring the coming season, the horses in their i na )OBse88ion, numbering in all eight or ten. Tho )s>ty consisted of four white men, two of whom vero disguised os negroes, and styled themselves 'Bogulators," stating that they were from Dunlin md Sampson counties, and that they belonged to in organization who had sworn to disDOsscss tho negroes of this section of every horso they ownedj No resistance was made by tho negroes to the party, who were all armed, and if lhere has been ?my "discovery of their identity tho negroes are afraid to reveal it. Tho horses thus stoleo were tho rightful property of tho negroes, who have, by this unlawful act, experienced a severe loss, es? pecially as the planting season is so near at hand. Tho "sufferers know not whore to appeal for re? dress, and we think that if tho Legislature now in session would but declare horso stealing, for tho first offence, a _ capital felony, pimishablo with dc?.th,.much inconvenience cad loss would be ob? viated. In the meantime the whole county should be on their guard to apprehend those depredators and bring them to that punishment which the law now inflicts.-Wilmington Journal ABBIVED.-Tho steamships Rebecca Clydo and Prometheus both arrived in port vestorday after? noon from Now York. The caigo broutrht by tho first named is quito largo, and that of tho Prome th eus, ul thom? h not so great, is considerable.-Ibid: PITT Comm.-A. party of desperadoes, in tho lower part of Pitt, overtook the Sheriff a few nights ago, at r. point known as Haddock's Cross Beads, and, compelling him to dismount,' took possession of his money and, the papers he had about him. Wo understand that no violence was offered to the person of Mr. Gray, tho Sheriff, bef yond forcing him to deliver up "everything in his ?possession. The same band, or another acting in concert with thom, then proceeded to Greenville, and. en? tering the clerk's office in the Court House, effected a terrible destruction of the records and legal doc? uments therein. We are not advised as to the amount of damage inflicted, but fear it will prove heavy, and oauso muoh loss and inconvenience to tile county.-Wilson North Carolinian. THE CHEVES PLANTATION DIFFICULT?.-The Au? gusta (Ga.) correspondent of the New York Times speaks thus of this affair: It has been ascertained beyond a doubt that a negro from Massachusetts, named. Bradley, has been the causo of all tho troubles among the freedmen on tho Chevos plantations, near Sa? vannah, and to quell which it was found neces? sary to employ a considerable force of United States troops. This Bradley is the same who, a litt io more than a year ago, was tried by a mili? tary commission, by order of General Brannan, for exciting insurrection, and was condemned to a year's imprisonment - in Fore Pulaski, but was subsequently released. He desires to be admit? ted to the bar of this State, but-as yet has not been able to obtain the certificate of a Judge of competent jurisdiction to enable him to write Attoruoy and Couucillor-at-law after, his name! Prom ail I can learn about him and his opera? tions, he seems' to' be impressed : with the idea that his light will never shine with its full efful? gence until he can become the- leading spirit of a negro insurrection, and that to bring about this resuL it is his duty to persuade the freedmen who have squatted upon estates along the Georgia and South Carolina coast, that tho fertile lands which they have made a wilderness are theirs in feo-sim? ple; that any attempt to dispossess them and re? store the property to the owners is tho treasonable act of the President, and that if they res.st the outrage by loree and arms, Mr. Sumner and Mri Stevens will "see them righted." Happily Brad? ley's machinations have been frustrated for thc present by the energetic action of the Commis? sioners for Georgia and South Carolina, and the seasonable intervention of United States troops, who could not be induced to liston to Bradley's eloquence. The bellicose freedmen, have yielded, and are now, it is reported, making contracts to cultivate tho lands for biro, to which Bradley con? vinced them they had a sort of right of discovery.

I consider Chickoriug & SOUB' Pianos, beyond oom' parisou, tho best I have ever seen In Amnr^a^. GOTTSCHALK. I consider Ohickerlng & Sons' Pianos superior to any In-tho world. .. They are unrivalled for their singing qualities and for the harmonious roundness of their tone. There ls a perfect homogeneity throughout all the registers. The upper notes are remarkable for a clearness and purity which I do not find in any other instrument, while.the base ls distinguished for power without harshness,-and for a magnificent sonority.' / - .'. ..-.- . - ;.. ... . / ' . r . ... . .
