-j SEPT, 1870 FOR GOVERNOR, GEN. JOHN C. BROWN OF GILES. The Georgia Democrat propose to come square up and pledge their honor to support the administration or wenenu want. Hut they are already thrown ofl with contempt Their support is not wanted.

It might interfere with the interest1 of the carpet-baggers. No self-abasement will do any good whatever, and the more they truckle, and maneu ver, and fawn, the mora they will be deapised. Ho Mississippi pretended to love Dent, and even to swear by the black platform, and swallow the negro as a savory morsel, and to prefer black men's rights to white men's rights But all to no purpose. As the coward spits upon the hound that trembles before him, so the hero of Long Branch spits on all who sniffle and blanch in his presence. Political cowardice is the worst impolicy They who yield rights, except as Tell would yield them to his tyrant Gees ler, deserve no liberty, and would of all others be the least capable of main tuining, if they possessed it.

1). LUMPKIN. To th great regret of many of his fellow-citizens, the Franklin lievietc states that W. B. Stokes, who has recently been seriously ill, is now considered out of danger and likely to be able to write another let ter and call once more for reconstruction.

Greeley has been beaten for the Republican nomination for Governor of New York. He is a man of too large sense, too high character and too much indejiendence and integri ty of character to suit the purposes of the vile party to which, unfortunately for the country, he belongs. Thf. Mobile Register say9: "The New York Time finds cold comfort in the reported "acquiescence" of the Democracy: 'All the facts show that the Democrats, as a party, have not in a single instance, affirmed their ac ceptance of these amendments, or of any other feature of the reconstruc tion policy. Of the thirty-three I'em ocrats who voted in the House of Representatives on a resolution de- daring the XI Vth and Vth Amend ments "binding and obligatory," but three voted aye; thirty-three voted adversely.

Does that indicate acqui escence? The Democratic Congressional Committee counsel avoidance of dead issues, but carefully abstain from including reconstruction und the amendments in this category, Is that a sign of The Maine Democracy characterizes the reconstructed governments as usurpa tions, and the Georgia Democracy utter not a word that can bind them to the support of the new order of things. Are these facts tokens of ac quiescence?" The chagrin of the 'Units shows despondency, but it should not despair of conveitiug somebody to the true Radical faith, provided there is money in it. Those papers and men who have been every thing that lias been going there for thirty years, will join after a while." There is a disposition seemingly prevalent in this country to rejoice over the announcement of the Repub lic in trance. We hope it may indeed turn out well fjr the French people. We hall know the fact better when it is fully accomplished.

It is too soon for congratulations. We prefer to wait and see. The Memphis .4 ralaneAc speaks of ax our "srasasefSBss neighbor," and declares that she "has sent us the most distinguished duelist on the continent to tMSc-ti us the use of the sword." There's where she mads a mistake. She should have sent ynu somebody lo teaob you the Use of the pen. Oiurxer-Journal.

His political status is satisfactory to this county, and that fact, we take it, will le considered a satisfactory proof of tiis Democracy. When the State of Lincoln indorses a man, he's very Hpt to be all right." With reference to the war of the ballot, and to the present circumstan-ci, the Austin Slat Gazette says We are not blame for submitting to what we cannot help, but we cover ourselves with ignominy and shame when we urr.i of self-abasement.

We are now asattsl, by our own volition, to imiose onerous and degrading conditions upon those to come after up, and our weak and cowardly natures would shrink from the responsibilities of the hour, were it not Uiat no honest man, with the blood of a Saxon in his veins, can staud idly by and see the impending ruin crush ant his owu, his children's, and his country's hopes, lie who can coolly and calmly advise an "aefs-ptance of the situation," is as guilty the assassin of his country's liberties. The I Ufa Springs Gazette says: The Memphis Appeal is wholly mistaken in supposing we had any allusion to that paper in ur issue on 'conservative or 'llemoc-racy' sine If we are not altogether wrong in interpreting the Ai'i'EAL editorials, we are fully together vuth regard to the propriety of a party name. Being entirely sat-i-tied to be called a Iiemocrat, and to light under that old banner, we have felt that there was no need of adding an adjunct to it." We are pleased to have so wide awake, earnest and able a co-laborer. Thb French Courier of New York recognizes the surrender of McMahou as conclu-ive of the contest. "It Is finished (it says).

France is stricken to the heart. One month has sufficed to paralyze, if not to annihilate, the vital forces of one of the greatest ami noblest powers of tho earth, and at the same time to displace the political axis of the world. It is useless to dissemble. The army which has been surrendered to the enemy was the flower of our military iKji.ulation. McMahon destroyed aud Bazainepo-je.

Should France entire, with her three millions of young men, rise as one man and rush upon the solid mass of skillful, disciplined, well armed and victorious Prussians, she would only rush on her ruin, without moving an inch the solid wall of iron arrayed against her. No doubt France will receive with a cry of indignation the news of the capitulation signed in her name, and that the first movement will be a levy en masse and a demand for new eomoats. But, that first frenzy over, cool reflection will throw a chill over that heroism and we doubt if any can be found to take the initiative of fresh struggles, that is to say, the responsibility of new disasters.

France has no right to commit suicide. She belongs to the world to civilization to humanity, and there should at least be some chance for deliverance to justify the horrors which would be entailed by a continued war, which would be an unbroken series of ravages, vasta-tious. Immolations and ruins. We are ignorant what counsels will prevail in this great perplexity. It is not to-day or to-morrow that a calm decision can be reached.

And what is this terrible propulsion of one mighty nation against another in Europe doing for We are startled by the terrific magnitude of armies, by the splendor of their equipments, by their wonder ful valor, by the mechanical precision of their movements, by the extraordinary destructiveness of their weapons. By all these incidents of the fearful struggle, we are completely fascinated. oi tne less are we amazed by the rapidity of astounding events which unsettle facts and ideas, the growth of many centuries. We therefore fol low over maps, and trace the paths of colossal armies, with tireless toil and studious care. We eobble a little French, and practice upon commonplace German and French phrases; but we acquire meanwhile a thorough knowledge of the geography of western Europe.

Thorn pson, so well known throughout Mississippi as a true man and a talented journalist in the olden times, is now, with regained health, lately so much reduced by his fidelity to the lost cause," striking vigorous blows for the leiuo-cratic party as the editor of the Austin State Gazette.

It is weak-kneed at tho very outset of the battle, and we think it would be well If It aid go to the rear for fear of the contagion of a pernicious example. The AvtUanrtte struck out on thu same line. But seeing its danger in time has come to the conclusion that "there can be nothing more obligatory" than that it should stand up to the lH)tm-cratic arty In the midst of Democratic patrons and people. So it has very sensibly wilted, and is trying to stand up somewhat creditably. With the help of splints on its knees and with a face toward Democracy.

But as to the Comritr we doubt whether there is staniiua enough in it to stand tin with all possible helps; and therefore, being kindly and charitable in our disposition, we should be pleased to see it retire to aome pkuie oi safety, anu leave to others the glory as well as the dangers of the contest, which will not cease.

A little newspaper, named 11 has recently made its appearance in Florence, where it has become at once popular. It imitates the Parisian Figaro. The death is announced of Giusep-pina Pellico. the sister of Silvio Pel-lico, whom he mentions In "Le Mie Prigioni." Her death took place at Chferi, and she is said to have left a volume of memoirs, which is shortly to be published.

The French attribute their want of success to the splendid manner in which the Prussians reconnoitre with their Uhlans, aud the completeness of their spy system, which keeps them perfectly acquainted with every stir made by their antagonists. Another illustrated comic paper made its appearance in Dublin three weeks ago. It is entitled the h'night Errant, and its first number isclever, tasty and highly creditable. Its frontispiece embodies a strong pictorial argument in favor ot the purittca-Uon ot the Llffey. "When shall we hear the last of the Uas?" asks tho London Atheneum.

"There is a solemn account of the deadly tree in CasselCs Magazine, as if the public would learn that not in Java, but in the fertile brain of Geo.

In order to amuse the children, a lady was engaged in reading from tne Bible the story of David and Goliah, and coming to tho passage in which Goliah so boastingly aud defiantly dared the young "tripling, a little chap, almost in his first trowsers, said: "Sister, skip that skip that; he's blowing!

Some passages against the Prussians, placed in the mouth of one of the cftaraclers, were excised at the first production of the piece; those have now been restored, and it is needless to say are vociferously applauded.

The only changes at the Parisian theaters, besides the nightly intnxluc-tion into the pograuiirieof unlimited repetitions of the Marseillaise, consist of the resumptiou at tho Vaudeville, by M.

Imagine Ship Island ceded to a foreign power, and made a free port; Imagine further, that the right to fortify the rivers and harbors in that vicinity had also been given up, and the right to smuggle mo uireciion oi Mobile, New Orleans and Texas considered as not only legitimate but laudable, and you can readily see that the new town would soon get to be a place of great commercial consequence. There are numbers of Chinese pirates about the mouth of the river. Every large junk is armed with a formidable battery, sometimes ay, much as eight old 32 pounder guns, mounted on antiquated naval carriages. It is said, with what truth I don't know, that any and all of them will turn pirates if occasion oners. 1 suspect, however, that their armaments are more to assist in smuggling operations, inasmuch as the gunboats, on attacniug, are frequently forced to tae up positions at long range, and use their rifled guns drive the smugglers ashore.

ills influence has aided to open new ports to foreign commerce, and keep old ones secure. This, though, Ls nothing; but the taking a Chinaman to a foreign country, where his condition may in every way be ixnenieu, is a sin not to tie thought of, practiced or allowed. Coerce the effeminate and degenerate government to keep the duties on opium down, forbid the fortifying of their ports and cities anything, in fact, that we may turn an honest penny, but take not one of our consumers hence. Oh, virtuous and humane poisoner! put money in thy purse, and verily, you shall be thought well ofl 1 confess that when I commenced the paragraph on opium, 1 had no intention of administering a castigatiou to the dealers in it, but the simple statement of the fact seemed scarcely sufficient, lair play aud honesty of purpose mattes it necessary lo rut this monster a square blow. The appointment of Burlingame as embassador by the Chinese government was an effort to free themselves of the odious treaties forcing opium on the country.

Therefore the unpopularity of the mission, and the war upon It by the opium dealers and their agents. All the fuss about the wording of credentials, and hairsplitting over the chicanery of Chinese diplomacy was nothing more nor less than a blind to prejudice public opin ion against the Chinese, that no reh x-atiou of the treaty screws ruigh qq. cur. mere are two super nry-ooeks at tiong Kong, ana a marine railway for naming vessels out oi ti'e water. Th Aoerueen uocxs win take in vessels four hundred feet long.

A visit to this place is worm your while. There you see the Chinamen as ship-carpenters, eaulkurs and riggers, blacksmiths aud machinists. They perforin their wors weii, anu are paid irom twenty cents to twenty-five cents a day. A large English ship was towed in from sea, after having been roughly handled in a typhoon. Nothing remained but her foremast and fore yard, a jury topmast and topsail guard, with which she had managed to run down before the mensoon in sight of the port.

A number of tenders were put in for repairs. A Chinese contractor got the job, and proceeded to put her to rights again. New masts were put in. New rigging standing and running was fitted; new sails were cut and made; new iron-work done. In fact, the ship was made new from her deck upward to her sky-sail yards, and all by Chinamen.

At the foundries and machiue shops you find Chinamen doing and performing any and all work that is to be done; making patterns, running lathes, fitting, finishing, and making castings. In the sail-lofts you find tbeui plyiug the needie and using the fid, in turning in clews and making cringles, as deftly as the best sailmakers in Europe. All steamers sailing to and from Chinese ports have Chinese crews. They are equal to auy employment they can find. liong Kong is a free port.

A vessel arriving is boarded by the health officer, from whom she obtains a certificate, and pays therefor twenty-five cents. This is the only port charge. When she clears from tho office of the harbor master, settles this bill and ijoes her way rejoicing. Goods from all countries are landed duty free. This exceedingly sharp policy is what has built up the place so it is irequenteu by largo numbers of merchants, who come ffom that topntry to make pur- nu- u.

You will soc at no time less than two hundred and sometimes double that number of Chinese junks of sies nmging from fifty to two hundred and fifty tons burthen, loading or discharging merchandise. They clear out and go at any and all timen and endeavor to work their way intp secluded nlates, to eiud te vigilance of the Chinese custom authorities, aud the gunboats, which are ever on the watch for them. A proposition was made last summer to station a Chinese Consul In Bong Kong, who could force all vessels owned by Chinamen or bound to Chinese ports, to report to hhn, and give an account of their doings.

This reasonanie demand was indignantly repelled. The idea of stationing a Chinese spy in the midst of this nest of smugglers, to watch and report their movements, was a piece of imjiodente unparalleled. This would be a clog on legitU riiate commerce. This business of dealing with the Chinese officially, Is much like the turkey and huv ri I itoryof the White man and Indian At the end of a day's sport, the Joint spoil of the party was a turkey and a buzzard.
