Macon, Ga, Tuesday, July 3, 1866.
The happy condition of the slaves in the South
SO frequently asserted by the people ana the
Press who hold them in bondage is not thoroughly
appreciated by all Of the enslaved race IN this
region for a few of them are disposed to forego
that blessing for q brief sojourn among the be-
nichted heather Of the North, l suppose in order
TO enjoy more fully the sweets of Slavery on their
return, which is always soon.
came from Columbus to this place yesterday,
and on the train found a stout healthy negro,
about 40 yearsof age, whose love of liberty had
exceeded his discretion, for a da or two previous
he had essayed to run away lie was pursued
and captured and to prove how fearful his cap
tors were Of him, they had his arms tied behind
him with a thick rope, and he was chained to the
seat with 4 stout chain secured with q heavy
lock. On our arrival at Geneva he was met by
his master, who in addition to the heavy letters
already on him, placed n pair of handouts upon
his wrists. lie then led him 10 his wagon, forced
him into it, and in the presence of all the passen-
gers commenced pounding him in the head and
face-cursing all the while with a m~alignity of ex
preston and feeling that would have done honor
TO the Evil One himself.
Notwithstanding a large crowd surrounded him
none dare TO say a word, for the man was his
property aud the lap protected him, though it
was gratifying to hear several who we're slave
holders say they disapproved Of his masters con
duct.
! was also informed at Geneva that a slave OF
a plantation abont two miles from that place had
run away that morning and the dogs had been in
pursuit of him several hours. but up to that time
without success.

GERMAN Colony IN South CARoLINA.-Four
years ago there was organized in Charleston, South
Carolina, a German Society for the purpose of
founding a German Colony in the mountainous por-
ton Of the State, in a place which can not be cas-
lily matched for beauty, s~alubrity and fertility. On
the southeastern slope Of the Blue Ridge a tract
of about 10000 acres was purchased, aud a village
laid out in the center. This village, Walhalla, has
now about 500 German inhabitants, and is grow
ing finer every day, prospering in business and
trade. The whole colony numbers about 1000,
and enjoys a very satisfactory degree Of prosperity,
partially perhaps owing to the fact that all the
settlers possessed sufficient capital to set up their
business. The Society laid out their entire tract
into farms, had them appraised by disinterested
persons, have sold at the appraisers prices about
1000 acres, ana have about G 900 acres to sell.
these farms contain from about 80 to 300 acres
apiece, with the exception of an extensive mill
privilege near Picken's Courthouse, which are
not to be sold, and for several years are not to be
leased.

So the Convention refused to lay the motion on
the table, and suspended the rules to allow Mr..
Smith to road his resolution. After some remarks
in relation to the conflict between the friends of
Mr.. Chase and Mr.. Brinkerhoff, he submitted the
following resolutions
WHEREAS, The result of the contest in Ohio be-
tween the friends of Freedom and Slavery is of
vastly more consequence to the people we repre-
sent, to the country, and to posterity, THAN the fate
of men and whereas, there seems to be a conflict
of men merely, which threatens to destroy the
harmony which ought to prevail in this body, and
to put in jeopardy the success of great principles
therefore,
Resolved, That we. the representatives of the
people of the State who are enlisted in the cause
OF Freedom, deem it expedient to Withdraw from
the canvass for the Gubernatorial candidacy the
names of the Hon. Salmon p. Chase and the Hon.
Jacob Brinkerhof.
Mr.. Giddings replied: He thought the PROPOSE.
ton an extraordinary one. 1t has no precedent
Mr.. Smith thought tho Know othings would de-
feat Mr.. Chase. This is not 80. They will sup
port the ticket here nominated. Mr.. Giddings ther
offered, as a substitute, the following;
Resolved, that all the members Of this Conyen,
ton pledge themselves that, irrespective of part,
and political associations, we will contribute oui
moral and political influence to sustain the princi
pies and nominees Of this Convention.

Bricks NCENDIARY-Th citizens of Yorktown,
Va, have decided that bricks are an abolition in
~stitution and consequently they won't have a steam
brick factory erected in their midst. The citizens
tumbied some brick making machines into the riy-
er, one night, because two or three Northern men
were to be associated in the manufacture Of bricks.

A CONSCIENTIOUS SLAvE-TRADER.-Tho National
Era gives an account of a gentlemrn in Washing
ton City, who advertises for sale a negro girl, be.
cause cher owner does not wish to own q slave"
The Era appropriately asks, GLOW can the philan-
thropic gentleman sell a slave, and perhaps to a less
humane master than himself ? He has q tender
conscience, truly. Another advertiser in the Same
city wishes to hire a slave woman, and directs in
quiry at "the Benevolent Employment Store" II
is certainly benevolent to provide employment for
all, provided you pay them for it but it is decid-
edly the reverse to receive the services of a woman
and make payment for thom to some other per-
son."

Missouri AGITAToRs.-The ultra pro-slavery
The people of Platte County recently called n
meeting to instruct their representatives TO vote for
Atchison for Senator next fall. But somehow,
though the meeting convened, it proved a failure,
so far as the avowed object was concerned. A
Benton man was elected Chairman, and the meet
ing refused to recommend Atchison. Finally the
meeting separated, after appointing delegates to
the Slavery Convention at Lexington, on the 18th
inst.
Latest accounts report that Convention in ses-
sion. The following from the telegraphic accounts
contains all that We know of its proceedings:
After a temporary organization, Senators Atchi-
son and D~oniphan were called upon to address the
Convention, but declined.
Other gentlemen addressed the meeting, express.
ing themselves in favor of establishing slavery in
Kansas by all lawful means. The Convention
was permanently organized by the choice of W. Il
Wool, presiding officer. Resolutions were intro
duced requesting the legislature Of Missouri to pass
acts retaliating upon and discriminating agains
the products of the States of Massachusetts, Yer
mont and Michigan.
President Shannon of the University, by invita-
ton delivered an address, setting forth the Bibl
arguments in favor of slavery. His speech wa
very ultra and infamatory, and caused much OK
element. Some of his propositions were strongl,
objected to. The Convention was still in session
at last accounts.

The Mass Convention of the Free Democracy
which was called at Csismbus on the 18th, was
not even called to order. 1t was called, it seems,
to be organized in case matters did not go to tho
liking of the Free Sellers. But they had no occa-
sion to act. Those who were deemed the more
hunkerish of the party granted very gracefully
all that the Free Sellers had the courage to ask.
The scripture was fulfilled. According to their
faith it was granted them. Had they been less
modest in their asking, they would doubtless have
received more largely.

THE SQuATTER SovEREIoN's WAY OF CELEBRATING
THE 4rn.-The Kansas Squatter Sovereign. of the
3D., edited by Stringfellow, proposed the following
"pastime" for the Sovereigns on the 4tb
"In the absence of the customary facilities for
4 due commemoration of the the glorious Fourth,
a pleasant pastime, and q fit type of the day we
celebrate, would be the hanging Of abolitionists.
The departed spirits of our revolutionary sires
would greet with approval a work like this for in
their time in this mundane sphere, it was their
wont to use the utmost rigor with all traitors
Shall we, then, deviate from their example. and
permit treachery to thrive and grow strong in our
midst? At least let US devote q portion of that
day to a calm consideration of the expressions
sought to be imposed upon US. IT'S vain for US to
contemplate, with emotions of pleasure, the MEM
cries of the morrow, while we are ourselves SUBJ
ject to tyrannical and arbitrary rule. Let us,
then, gather fresh vigor and zeal from the refec-
ton of the glorious achievements of our patriotic
ancestors, which ought to be brought wildly be.
fore us by the remembrance of the events that
have endeared the fourth day Of July to every
American"

SHERMAN M. BOOTH AGAIN.

The Shareholders are persistent in their detcrmi-
nation to worry down the friends of freedom, and
to crush into submission to their will, all it's cdvo-
Gates and defenders. Mr.. Booth, of Wisconsin,
has, for months past, been a particular object of
their vindictive assaults. Suit after suit has been
brought against him. On Monday Of last week,
the last case was decided-the jury rendering a
verdict against him of 81 900 and costs for his aid
rendered in the rescue of Glover.
1t is outrageous-it is despicable, that a North
ern jury, away out in Northwestern WiscoL sin,
should thus sustain the slave power against their
own liberties, and the rights and property of their
Wisconsin neighbors. The Union, with its prcsi-
dental patronage, which fastons slavery and a
slaveholding court upon Wisconsin, has done this.
1t ~nulliGies all political and judicial opposition to
slavery, and induces the craven hearted men oil
the North to join the South in the ruthless perse.
cution of men who dare to be men, and exercise
humanity to the slave, in defiance Of our bloody
laws.
All the friends of freedom, and especially sucl
of them as are mistakenly laboring to sustain Tho
Union, should make common cause with Mr.. Bootl
in this persecution.
Mr.. Booth says that he has received another cit
alton from Chief Justice fancy, of the U. S. Su
preme Court, Ito appear before that Court, a
Washington, on the first Monday of December
next, and show cause why the judgment of thu
Supreme Court Of Wisconsin in our favor SHOULD
not be reversed, and we be made to suffer the pen
atty of fine and Imprisonment, pronounced against
us by Judge Miller. On examining it we find il
an exact copy of the citation served upon us on tn,
9Th of May last. Judge fancy and Caleb Gushing
are evidently afraid we shall forget them, and ar
determined 10 make us keep them in afectionat
remembrance"

SOUTHERN SEcTIoNALIsN.-The ridiculous cry Of
our doughfaces, against political Anti Slavery, as
sectional is we'll illustrated by a recent article in
the N. Y. Tribune, the pith Of which is in the
following paragraph:
AS a striking illustration Of the extreme and
virulent degree to which this sectional spirit has
prevailed the South, we have pointed out TO our
readers the remarkable and pregnant circumstance
eleven Presidential elections, previous to the
choice Of Mr.. Van Buren,, only four, or, as might
more properly be said, only three electoral votes
were cast south of the Potomac with the design to-
raise a northern man to the Presidency! Nor has
this violent sectional spirit on the part of the slave
drivers-pretty fellows they to cry out against SEQ
tionalism been limited in its exhibitions to-
Northern men alone. 1t has fallen with destruc-
tive blight upon every Southern man. no matter
how illustrious or distinguished, who has attempt
ed to set himself up against it or to restrict itwith-
in any sort of limits.
