' : WHAT A REPUBLICAN JOURNAL TniNK8 OF THE ATROCITIES OF CON GREss.-Thero is ono Republican press in Massachusetts, (the New buryport Herald,) which dares to print the following of the Recon struction Acts of Congress, every word of which is the most solemn truth: "Words cannot depict the atrocity of these usurpations.' No Roman Caesar, no bastard Norman tyrant, no British Stuart, no prinoe of the Hoasei of Bourbon, i no despot of either ancient Or modern times, ever put forth a mote grasping hand, or exercised a moro tyrannic sway, than has this Congress, which calls itself Republican, in its . treatment of people who surrendered to our arms in good faith, and who had a right to expect that they would no longer be treated as enemies after the contest was ended, and who were declared by General Grant himself, after going among thom soon after the rebellion, bo well disposed- toward the Go? vernment. "Under a Government of laws, certain penalties are proscribed for offences; and whenever the offender has suffered tho penalty of the law, nothing furthor is required of him. Anything beyond this is oppression is wanton injustice. But these ini? quitous schemes must sooner or later inevitably faiL In what school of statesmanship has that man been taught, who thinks that the wealth and intelligence of a State can be con? trolled by the poor and ignorant? No such Government ever did or can exist, for it is contrary to the course of nature. You might as well nt tempt to erect a pyramid with its apox on the earth and its bose in the air. A boiler in a petroleum refinery, on Prospect and South Eighth streets, Jersey City, exploded on tho 22d, by the contact of naphtha in the kettles with tho flame underneath. Ono man, tho engineer, was killed, another is missing, and tbreo others are so badly burned, that they will noL probable recover. The forco of thc explosion was sufficient to drivo a large portion of the building 100 feel in thc air. ? : cop***** 'Report-for-Week, ending Friday, Sept. 25. : PncBNix OTPI?E, COLVMBLV Bcpt: 26.

Sinco the expulsion of tho colored members from the Georgia Legisla? ture, they havo organized themselves into a "Civil and Political Rights Association," and issued a call to thc colored men for a State Conven? tion. They stato in the call that | they have been unlawfully driven from tho General Assembly, their j rights of citizenship ignored, and 100,000 of taxed voters deprived of j their right of representation. They, therefore, call upon tho colored men in every County, to send delegates to a Stato Convention, to beheld in tho city of Macon, on tho first Tues? day in Ootobor, to determine upon the be3t course of action for tho] future, and to invoke Congressional 1 aid in the scourity of their rights. INCEKDIAUISM. -The stable and barn of Purvis Alexander (colored) were burnt on last Friday night, and I one of his horses perished in the I flames. Tho fire took placo abouti half-past 9 o'clock p. m., and it is j thought by some to have been tho work of on incendiary. "No clue has j yet been obtained which will lead to j the discovery of the dastardly perpe-1 potrator of this foul crime. There is no man in the community, of any oharacter, who wonld not assist in discovering and bringing him to justice. - ditsier Correspondence York rille Emparer. - . ??. MMM ? Two riots bf consid?rable it tanco bave occurred 1n the within the least week-that at Ca? milla, Ga., on Saturday last, and that , in New Orleans, on Tuesday night. Both are legitimate resrdta of radical reconstruction, which has established hostility betwen the black and white races, and has given full license to the blacks, who are without discretion, and have no self-restrain? ing resolution. All this appears in .the history of the two riots. Tho firing of a pistol by a drunken man in Camilla, was enough to excite tho foolish blacks to fire off their guns at people in the streets, f?evernl of whom (whites) were wounded. Of course this provoked a general attack upon the body of negroes from which the firing came, and thoy wero driven off pell-mell with loss. So, in Now Orleans, be? cause a man uttered a shout for Sey? mour and Blair, the negroes in a procession rush upon him with in? tent to kill him, and wreak their vengeance upon a store into which tho fugitive had retreated. These two cases closely resemble that of the black Zouaves of "Washington, who fired-upou passengers in the streets, becauso they were startled by a pistol shot, whether fired by friend or foe they knew not. These things have a significance which is not at all surprising to Southern people, who understand a negro well. He has neither judgment nor self-con? trol. They ought to make an im? pression upon Northern people, and teach tho great error they commit? ted in their congressional policy touching the negro. Another fact staring out iu these riots is the unmitigated atrocity of tho carpet-baggers, who arc sowing the seeds of discord in the South and leading the negroes to their ruin, lu the affair at Camilla, these wretch? es were leaders, and countennuced, if they did not instigate, the marching of the battalion of blacks into the town in battle array, armed with loaded guns. In New Orleaus, the same class of recreant and depraved whites were no doubt equally active in marshaling the black columns and exciting the unregulated passions of their simple dupes. Scenes like these will continuo as long as tho present political condition of the South continues. Order and security cannot be restored until the whites are completely in authority. But these riots uud bloodshed, these fruits of reconstruction, which ought to damn radicalism, will be seized upon by the radical leaders for electioneering purposes. They will endeavor, knaves as they are, to take advantage of the consequences of their own wrong by blaming the Southern whites and embitteriug the Northern minds towards them. [Richmond J)is?Kt!ch. FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-As the funeral procession of Mrs. Carr was crossing the Erie Railway, on the 22d, a milo West of the painted post, the Rochester express came along, and frightened the horse of a carriage in which was Mrs. Drake, a sister of the deceased. She was thrown on the track, and had both feet cut off by the pat iing train. A child of thc deceased was also run over and literally cut to pieces. An old . man named Benjamin Teachout, who is sixty years old, has been senipned tobe hung on tho 13th of November next, by the Wyoming County (New York) Court, for the murder of his wife. He is a well-to do farmer and a member of the Bap? tist Church, but his wife being a con? firmed invalid, he considered her a burden, and made way with her by a course of gradual poisoning. A Democratic and a Republican club peaceably occupy the same room in San Francisco. The transparency is also in common, one sido bearing tho names of Seymour and Blair, ami the other those of the radical nominees. A despatch from Little Rock, Ark., says: "All the post offices between Littlo Rock nud Washington, Arkansas, a distance of 120 miles, are closed, in order to stop the circulation of Cou Bcrvativo newspapers." UNEXPECTED.-A malo infaut was boru on the Jersey City ferry-boat Newark, at five o'clock Sunday morn? ing.
