Gov. Orr has delivered his inaugural
and taken his seat as Constitutional Gov
ernor Of South Carolina. The Palmetto
State has behaved like "a good boy"
Her neighbor, Georgia, is (per contra)
still regarded as a 'wayward sister," and
the Provisional Governor, Johnson, is orr
dered to hold his position until further
orders The Hon. G. j. Jenkins, Gover>
nor elect, has to wait. A Milledgeville
dispatch to the Augusta Constitutionalst
says:
II am informed that no more pardons
are likely to come to Georgians, but that
some already granted are likely to be re-
voked, while the people continue to elect
to office army officers and others so re
Gently in arms against the Government.
None but loyal men can be accepted as
Representatives in Congress, and the
State must remain out of the Union and
under military rule until the people ac
cept the conditions of the Presidents
plan of reconstruction.
All elections of members of Congress
from the State are likely to be declared
null and void"
Isn't it slightly comical to authorize
Georgia to elect her representatives and
then reject them, because they are not OF
the right stripe? Why not appoint them
at Washington, at once? or to make
them assuredly acceptable to Congress,
place Charles Sumner at the head of the
commission in Boston to select represen-
tatlves for the Empire State" "Bosting"
is the "hub of crea ion" generally, and
especially does it seem to be the center of
the ruling power in this Government.
Why not invest it with the Imperial pur-
pie, openly and outrightly, and be done
with it Is it not the modern Athens
the seat of the Attic salt in letters the
creme de Ia creme of high society the
temple of the higher law" in politics
and religion? trampling alike on the
liberties secured by a free constitution,
and the divinity of the Redeemer taught
by the Bible? Besides all this, where
will you find spot on earth that pos
sesses the genius and the spare time for
attending TO other peoples business Ike
Boston. This refined and enlightened
city embraces every qualification of Gov
ernment, and we do not, in the least, see
the use of that cumbersome and expen.
sive machine called the Government OF
the United States, located at Washington.
Abolish it, and turn the sceptre ever to
Boston. If it does nothing else it will
work one happy effect, to-wit: of giving
those busy ybodies so much to do that they
will have no time to plot mischief and
breed discord.- Mobile News.

TRANSMISSION OF NEws-Now AND THEN.
The National Intelligencer, commenting
upon the wonderful changes that have
been effected in the transmission of news
in the last twenty-five or thirty years,
says:
Nowadays there are several skillful
telegraphic operators stationed in different
parts of the Capitol, and correspondents
send their paragraphs over the wires in
every direction. But until 1888 '.copy"

vice have nothing to do with the title of

such property is, on the requisition of an
officer or agent of the Treasury Departs
Department, to aid in collecting, protect
ing and forwarding it -; but not to att
tempt to control the movement of it
of the cotton. As provided in General
Orders No. SO, current series, from these
Headquarters, when officers in the mil
itary service have reason to believe there
is fraud being practiced on the Gov

will promptly make investigation of the
history of said cotton, and report the
facts to these Headquarters, for submis-
sion to the Treasury Department. Tor nual
