'The lady would probably think tula an an to?jgnitoaii amount; and the Senate there fore'fcontemplate givlug bet mach more. -The Knoxville (Tenn.) Press and Herald says that Governor Seater, distressed beyond measure that hWfealty-to tua- best interests of tbe people or.Tennessee should be so widely questioned by the-presa and the people of the State, has express? ed his Intention tb send in his resignarlo a to the Legislature early this month. -The, senators and representatives from South erfcStates har? been divided upon the various projects for constructing a Southern Pacific rail? road," and there was a probabiUty that If these dis. seaslo.ns were kept up the result would .be that they would not be able to pass a bill at this ses? sion. They have, therefore, held caucus meetings every day for nearly a week, and at their meet Inge; last Tuesday night it was agreed to support t be--Fremont road; or what ls now caned the. Trana-Con tinea tai Pacific Railroad. General Fre? mont 'ls to continue ? as president, a few more corporators are to be added, and other features or minor importance-are to be disposed of. . -A Washington telegram of Tuesday says: "A document looking to the future political pur noses of ehe Republican-party, has been drawn up-by ? prominent Western senator, and has been signed by erexy Republican in the Senate. To-day lt was . circulated among the Re pub ii eau members of the House, and sighed so far as lt was presented. The object ls to convene a grand caucus of all the JLe pugUcja*. in Congress-there being over twa hundred members-foi t^e purpose of devising ways- and. means, and setting forth the tis?es which, toa party will present to the country In ' the_ com big fall elections for members of the House of the Forty-second Congress. 'It ls Intend? ed to constitute a grand campaign committee, to furnish documents, Ac, and especially to look after the condition of the Radical party m the Southern States, where the contest ls represented -as Ukelj to be close, with fair prospect of Conser? vative results. This caneas will be held probably nert weet, and lt win be more Important than an -ordinary caucus, from the fact that it will make declaration' of principles. -For several months past.a committee or the City Council of Macon have been in negotiation with parties in New York, looking to the organ? ization of a company, with a large amount of capital, for the purpose of transforming the par? tially completed armory -buildings Into an Im? mense cotton factory. AU the preliminary ar? rangements have been completed, and in a few- days all the necessary papers will oe signed and the work actively com? menced. General AUred Iversoa returned from NeWYork Sunday night with the news that he had been s access ral in the formation of a com? pany with a capital of $500,000. The City Coun - eQ donatesaU the armory braidings, with twenty. acres.or und attached.at the valuation of $15,000, as stock la the company.. It ls understood the company win swarm ave hundred masons and carpenters toto the Immense structures and com? plete them as rapidly as possible. There ls room enough for 00,000'spindles, but the task or putting everything in order ls almost herculean. If com? pleted properly the world wui show few factories* .of greater magnitude. No stock wUl be offered -for sale in the South. The New York, company take all save thar of $75,ooo reserved by the City of Macon. ~ -The meeting of. the BvangeUcan Alliance la New York next September will be remarkable among religious gatherings for tbe presence and .participation of a large number of the most emi? nent representatives of that branch of the Chris? tian faith, now living. Tho preparations Vor the meeting bsve been long maturing, and have ex- ? tended,'to every part of the world, where there are | churches in sympathy with the objects of the I proposed conference. The list of those from I abroad, who are expected to take part in it, ern* braces representatives of the nnlvertties of Ber? lin, of Geneva, of Florence, of Gotha, and of Halie, Rev. Edmund de Presen.ee, of Parts, Pro resbor Tholuck, of Germany, Count Bernstoff, Count de Gasparln, Dean Alford, the Earl of Shaftesbury, and many others. The attraction to scholars and divines on this side of the Atlantic will be much more general and imperative. The consensus or articles of faith of the Alliance embrace thc divine authority or the Old and Kew Testaments, tue right of pri? vate judgment therein, the trinity, the depravity of human nature, the incarnation and the atone? ment, justification by faith, and eternal rewards and punishments. The special topics announced for discussion cover a wider range, and relate to the most effectual methods of counteracting in? fidelity and superstition especially in their organ? ized forms, the harmony of science and revela? tion, the religions aspects of popular education, i the relations of Christianity to civil government, I to philosophy, to social evils, to phllanthrophy, and to other great interests of mankind. It is i the first meeting of the Alliance in this country; aU the former meetings having been held In Eu? rope, where the association was formed twelve or fifteen years ago. The Pop alar Groundswell. Day by day the Reform movement gathers life and strength, and from every part of the State the eyes of the people are turned with eager expectation and confidence to the ap? proaching June Convention. Many of the connties arc already in motion. Marion will, on Saturday, the 14th instant, elect dele? gates to a county meeting to be held at the courthouse on the 25th instant, for the pur? pose of electing delegates to Columbia. Wil? liamsburg holds her County Convention on the first Monday in June. Union will come nobly up to the work on the same day. Barnwell, ever prompt, will hold Jier^nomi nating convection on Saturday, the T4th in? stant, and Laurens will do the same, on sales day, in June. The other counties are, one and all, preparing for action, and we can promise our friends in the interior that Charleston will speak on the 16th instant, with no uncertain,voice. Keep the ball rol? ling, and let every county send her very best representative men, white and colored, to the Council of The People in June ! "Even-Handed Justice.'' It is announced that Mr. T. J. Mackey is, by the grace of bis Excellency, "Governor M Scott," a trial justice of South Carolina. V7e are happy to find our expectation in this case more than realized. Whoa any one within the boundaries of this Stale ventures to affirm that au official spider, reposing in the middle of a gigantic web and gorged to the throat with his plunder, is the only crea? ture that can take care of the flies, the sus? picion is naturally excited that he is the spider's purveyor, and expects his portion of the spider's prey. . Hence, in the present ap? portionment, out of the revenues of the pub? lic, there is a congruity and a fitness which cannot but awaken the admiration of all con? cerned. The serviceable lackey has often? times to do some odious work, and the mas? ter should not be ungrateful. . And so far as the laws of the State are concerned they might have a worse adminis? trator. One who has tested their authority and braved their sanctions, may, perhaps, know the art of preventing others from vio? lating them with impunity. Uuuer the new regime we confidently anticipate an era of peace and good will. There will be no rowdyism in the streets, or the Council cham? ber. The carrying of concealed weapons will be strictly prohibited. An embargo will be laid upon that kind of morphine which decanters are used to keep in solution. "Jawing" may be overlooked in some cases, but jaw-breaking in none whatever. The ballot-box will be zealously guarded. And above all, no citizen will be allowed, under any pretext whatever, to shoot at an Alder? man-not even if that liberty should be at? tempted with his brother's 3on. In short, the ogis of (trial) justice will be extended over eveey civil and personal interest, and it may even come to pass that an honest, in? dustrious notiv? shall be found to have some rights which a Radical is bound to respect lu the history of the world, and especially in that of the South, in recent times, we have met with Instances of strange conversions and.transmutations. The greatest of Czars was once a ship-carpenter at Greenwich; Gustavus, the hero of Sweden, was a miner in Dalecarlia; Louis Philippe taught school; Napoleou III was a tavern lounger; Butler voted for Jeff. Davis; Moses pulled down the old flag, and, for aught we know, used it as a pocket-handkerchief ; Mackey wore the grey. All these are interesting and encour? aging examples. They forbid us to despair of anyman. It may be true, as the poet sings, that the scent of the roses will cling round a broken vase, but vessels that are put to foul uses may be cleansed and disin? fected. And possibly the judicial robe may also stand woshiug. Daniel Webster dis? played the narrowness of an old fogy when, in eulogizing Chief Justice Jay, he said, that the ermine, in falling upou him, touched what was os pure as itself. We bespatter it, smirch it and trample it into the mire, and when if must be purified, intend to use soap. _ Cause and Effect. It must be said for our colored people that their proceedings on Wednesday last, in honor of the adoption of the Fifteenth amendment, were marked throughout by a good order and a decorum highly-to their credit. Noi3e, o? course, and cheering and hilarity there was in abundance: but we are glad to say, that we have not heard of a single instance of drunkenness or unseemly conduct in all the various gatherings that marked the day. This gratifying result was doubtless due io the fact that the colored people had, in a great measure, the control of the arrangements all to themselves, the white adventurers who usually force them? selves into the leadership and foment trouble and discord having, for tue most part, on this occasion, vouchsafed to let the freedmen alone. ^ The Memphis Avalanche. Mr. M. C. Gallaway, the originator of the Memphis AvalancJie, and au editor and pro? prietor of the paper, publishes a card in the issue of the 30th ult, in which he states that a disagreement between himself and the other proprietor (Colonel Kellar) necessitates his withdrawal from any further connection with that journal. He adds that there is no interruption of personal friendship, and the difficulty is entirely in relation to the politi? cal cour3e of the paper. I A Scrub Race. Our puissant Governor has at last made up his mind abont the First Congressional District, and ordered an election for Tues? day, the 3l8t of May, to fill the seat in the House of Representatives, out of which Whittemore was so ignominiously kicked. There will, we believe, be no nominating convention of "The Parly," a3 all the candi? dates likely to take the held are avowed Re? publicans, and whatever fight there may be will be purely a family quarrel. The Con? gressional aspirant, "who can individually crack the party lash with mo3t vigor and perseverance will be most likely to win. Meantime, outsiders vvill watch with curious interest to see whether the Reverend Rogue from Massachusetts can indeed make good his boast to compel the freedmen of the dis? trict to insult Congress and the Nation by returning him to the sent he has disgraced, or whether some colored champion of the emancipated race will rise up, bold enough to grapple with the perjured parson, and strong enough to wre3t from him the plae? that he would hold.
