"WHAT WILL BE THE EFFECT.-The New York Herald, of Friday, believes that negro Congressmen will be elect? ed from the South, and says: We are called, then, to inquire what will bo the moral effect in the politicnl world of this startling inno? vation upon the old order of things? We may be sure that negro equality, proclaiming itself through negro voices from both houses of Congress, will make a profound impression upon the public mind throughout the North. Wo apprehend that the result will be a general re-action against tho Repub? lican pnrty in the Northern States; for we know that there is a stronger wall of white prejudice against tho negro in the North than exists in the South. This prejudice elected Bu? chanan, in 185G, and would have elected Douglas or Breckiuridge, in 18G0, had tho Charleston Convention consented to unite upon either. We may expect, then, when tho blacks assume tho political balance of power of ten reconstructed Southern ?States, and send up their black representa? tives to Congress, that there will bo a revolutionary re-action against them among the whites of the North, which will upset the Republican party. This may be the real object of those lend? ing Southern white politicians who aro urging their people to tho experi? ment of allowing the radicals and the blacks all the rope they may desire in this business of Southern reconstruc? tion. Let us push this thing of ne? gro equality, say these Southern leaders, into Congress, and then the laboring white masses of the North against this Southern negro political balance of power will take thc alarm, and a Northern re-action of the whites against the blacks will be the inevita? ble result; and thus the Republican negro party will bo destroyed by its oi/ii weapons. ?-??-? No BLACK MAN'S PARTY.-The New York Tribune, of Friday, says: Thoso men iu the South who are working to establish a black man's party aro tho enemies of this princi? ple of equality, and if they carry out their plans, they will strike Republi? canism a blow far heavier than the Democracy can deal. They will go far to undo the grand reform of which the war was tho instrument. In Vir? ginia, it is feared that the State Re? publican Convention, to be held August 1, will be the occasion of a division in the Republican ranks and the creation of rival parties, black and white. In Missouri, also, there are adventurers who urge the colored men to demand representation on tho Presidential ticket, and in case it is refused, to form a separate organiza? tion. We do not behove these efforts will bo sustained by the colored men, for they surely know tho fatal results of such an unprincipled policy. The Galveston Bulletin seems in? clined to ridicule the Charleston Mercury for announcing and com? mending tho sailing of three young Cbarlestonians, of good families and education, as deck hands before tho mast. "Veil, vot of it?" says the Bulletin. A good deal of it, we should say. The encouraging and commendatory notico of such sensi? ble acts of independence, among young men brought up to despise labor, is eminently a good thing. If tho press is of any use, it is for the propagation of noble principles, and the making public of such manly examples is ono of the greatest bless? ings the Southern press can confer upon its young men. [New York Timex. Homo idea of the terrible havoc of war may be gained from tho follow? ing figures: In tho desperate en? counter at Cliickamauga, Rosencranz lost 10,851 men, and at Murfrcsboro, 12,085; at Pittsburg Landing, Grant lost 13,573; at Vicksburg, 9,875, and at Mission Ridge, 7,000; at Gaines' Mill, Peach Orchard, Savage Station, Glendalo, White Oak Swamp and Malvern Hill, McClellan lost 70,000, and at Antietam, 11,426; Hooker lost in his campaign in tho Wilderness, 20,000; Burnside at Fredericksburg, 12,000; and Grant's united loss, from tho time of crossing tho R?pidan, in his final campaign, to thc surren? der of Leo, aro computed at 90,000. It has boen estimated that tho num? ber of Catholics in tho United States, in 1830, was 450,000; in 1840 it was 900.000, and 4,400,000 in 1860. Ac? cording to these estimates, tho Cath? olics double in number every ten years, and in 1870 wo shall have eight or niuo millions, or nearly one fifth of the whole population. Two persons wero recently drowned in the mer at Knox, Indiana. One of the bodies was found, and, after many fruitless efforts, a novel method was adopted to find tho other. The shirt of the drowned man was thrown into tho river, aud, after drifting a short distance, it disappeared. Tho grappling hooks were immediately used, and tho body drawn tip pre? cisely at the place where tho shirt disappeared. HEBREW COLLEGE.-Tho Hebrews of tho United States have undertaken tho work of establishing a literary institution of high order, in which tho tenets and literature of tho He? brews may bo prominently taught. The location is fixed at Philadelphia, aud Maimonides College is the signi? ficant name chpsen. A Kansas editor says: "Greeley claims that ho went on Jeff. Davis' bond to allay his soreness of feeling at being detained in prison so long without a trial, and to produco a kindlier sentiment toward tho North among the Southern people. Horace deserves the title of 'Jeff. Davis' Pain Killer.'" One of our Western exchanges says: "Wo notice in an Indiana paper the marriage of Mr. Thomas N. Lyon to Miss Mollie Lamb." Another Scrip? tural prophecy iu procesa of fulfil? ment-'tho lion and the lamb shall lie down together,' and, after awhile, 'a little child will lead them.' " TIIEDKVIL.-The word "devil" is mean any way you take it. Remove the d, ami it is evil; transpose tho e, and it is vile; remove the v, and it is il, and the 1 alone has the sound of hell. Beware, then, of the devil-he is a mean rascal. OBITUARY. Died, at Athens, Ga., on tho afternoon of tho 23d of July, SOPHIA AUGUSTA, beloved wifo of Colonel P.
