COTTON GINS,

MANUFACTURED BY
w. C. CLEMONS, BROWN & CO.,
Columbus, Ga.
WE HAVE REVIVED THE MANUFAC-
w TURE of Cotton Gins in this City, and
will be prepared to fill orders by 1st June next
As we shall not be, as heretofore, represented by
travelling agents, parties wishing our Gins will
confer favor by sending in their orders at an
early day. AS owing to the demand, we shall be
unable to keep stock in the hands of our local
agents. as it was practice before the war. All
business transactions being now reduced to cash,
our sales will be made on the basis of ready pay.
Our Gins are too well known to require any
special notice or commentator; we believe they
are unrivalled in the chief points of excellence
which go o make up superior machine, namely:
iS0ee0, Eght dyu,tNH and good sample.
Our DOUBLE CYLINDER GINS will be found
superior to the single cylinder, when parties have
steam or good water power, to give them the
necessary speed. In all cases when this can be
DONE we recommend them in preference to the
single cylinder. If, however, Indifferent or IN
Sufficient power is used, they will not do as well
tile single Gin.

Conservatism in West Virginia.

The citizens of Monongalia county, West
Virginia, held large and enthusiastic meeting
at Morgantown on the 10th instant, and adopted
a series of resolutions declaring their loyalty
during the war, and their support of all the
war measures taken for the suppression Of " the
rebellion" but declaring that the war having
now ceased, "by the overthrow of all oppOsi-
" have, by the consent and authority of the
81 United States Government, established State
Z" Governments within their limits, are entitled
" to representation in the Congress Of the
L" United States whenever they present them
.. selves in the persons Of representatives whose
s' loyalty cannot be questioned under the eN-
g isting constitutional or legal test; and we
&c moreover firmly hold and declare, as afnnda-
" mental principle, that taxation without rep
" resentation in a republican Government Is
" unjusti6able, and ought to meet the prompt
and unequivocal reprobation Of the people OF
g the United States"
Resolutions were also adopted expressing
approval of the Presidents veto OF the Freed
mems Bureau bill, and the votes and support
given it by the Senators from West Virginia
One of the resolutions adopted was as fol-
lows:
RESOLVED That we view the Constitution OF the
United States as the great charter of American lib
Sl.y, auu We now are, we heretofore have BEEN
oeeermlned to abide by, support and defend the

The VETO Of the civil Rights BIN.

The able veto message of the President, ar
resting the Civil Rights bill, confidently ex-
pected for several days past, and transmitted
to the Senate on Tuesday, shows, like his re-
cent veto Of the Freedman's Bureau bill, the
difference between a partisan and patriot,
factiOnist and statesman, a man Of narrow
mind and one of comprehensive reach of intel
lect. Whatever the President does he does
we'll and Thoroughly. This message, like the
other to which we have alluded is a clear,
able, exhaustive state paper, and like that
other, evinces the firm determination of the
President to arrest, as far as in him lies, all en-
croachments upon the Constitution and the
rights of the States, and to veto all measures
designed to &" arrest the progress Of those in
auences which are more closely drawing around
the States the bonds Of union and peace"
How vain and futile is the effort in RepubG-
can circles to hide the differences between the
President and themselves. Above these petty
and fraudulent attempts at cOncealment, great
events like these Presidential yetOeS arise 10
show their holowness and inSincerity. Nor

on immsterial points. They are vital and fun
damental, reaching to the Constitution itself.
In their persevering attempts to punish the
South, through the elevation ofthe negro, (aud
the negro is at the bottom Of all the measures
of the dominant party,) they manifest reck-
less and total disregard of all other cOnSidera-
tions. Thus, under this Civil Rights bill, we
find them going to the before unheard of eX-
tent Of admitting to citizenship the Chinese OF
the Pacific States, Indians not taxed, and
Gypsies, even, whilst, to quote the language OF
the President, " The bill in effect proposes
discrimination against large numbers Of in
d" telligent, worthy and patriotic foreigners,
" and in favor of the negro, to whom, after
4" long years of bondage, the avenues to free
90 dom and intelligence have now been sud
{" denly opened
We all await with anxiety the issue of the
effort that will be made to pass this bill over
the Presidential veto.
Weregret our inability to give the text ofthe
message in full to-day. We will do so to-mor-
row.

above Leaksyllle-has been successfully
worked during the Confederate war, and sup
piled Danville with coal to considerable ex
tent. 1t has been abandoned since the close of
the war. 1t was worked carelessly and un-
skiIlfully. The vein crops out at an angle of
ABOUT forty-fve degrees, on hillside, within
few hundred yards of the Dan river. The seam
increased in thickness and improved in quality
as the depth increased. 1t is about four feet
thick. The centre of the vein is, however,
composed Of shaley substance that seems to
leave the pure coal on each side Of it in paral-
lei layers. The expectation is that this central
substance will disappear at a greater depth.
The coal raised from points near the surface
has been found mixed with slate and sulphur,
but these substances seem to diminish with the
depth Of the excavation. The intermixture
with the slate renders the more impure speci-
mems rather more difficult to start in the CRATE
than the Pennsylvania anthracite but all who
have used it in Danville speak OF it as yielding
q more intense and a more lasting heat. The
coal is ola very peculiar variety, and the spe-
cimens are beautiful. 1t has very little btu
men in it. When the sulphur is expelled 1t
makes an excellent furnace coal.
There is batteau navigation Immediately
from the coal seam to Danville, down the Dan
river, distance Of twenty-five miles. Should
the impurities disappear below the water level,
and the shae in the centre become consolidated
into seam four feet thi ok, the mine would be
very valuable.

A Russian Newspaper on American Affairs.

The Journal de st. PeterSb'Tg, of October
4th, lately received, has many comments on
American affairs. Among them the following
THE work of paci6caton goes on with that IA
pdity that energy, that practical good sense, which
the Americans bring 70 all their undertakings
In both North and South the people seem to have
cast aside all animOsity all bitterness, all desire for
revenge. and to think only Of re-estabishing the
Union and repairing the caamitOus consequences of
a fratricdal struggle.
From his retirement, where he has gone to cult
vate his lands, General Lee, after distinguishing
himself at the head of three hundred thousand men
by resistance unparalleled in the history OF wat-
fare accepts with submission the DEGREES OF Proyl-
dence and has Just addressed letter to his fellow
citizens in which he eXhOrts them to do everything
which lies in. their power to re-estabsh peace and
harmony"
We wish what the journal says of the eradi-
cation of " all luminosity and bitterness in the
North was as true as its paragraph
about General LEE. So far as the
South is concerned, "the work of pacif-
cation is complete - but the dominant
party at the North acts as if the war were still
going on. Russian information is more pleas
ant than correct.

The Dan River Coal Fields

The Dan River Coal Fields lie in Stokes and
Rockingham counties, North Carolina n dis
lance in length Of about thirty miles, and tboD
cross the Dan river about twenty-five miles
above Danville, and pass into Virginia abon,
ten miles, making an aggregate length Of forty
miles-the average breadth is about five OF six
miles. The direction of the trough, if ex-
tended, being northeast, would about strike
the coal beds around Richmond. By posi-
bility they may connect, although we incline
TO different opinion. Coal has been found
near the immaginary line Of such connection
in Halifax, rather east Of the line, and in
Prince Edward, near the line. Almost imme-
diately on the line an extensive bed of graphite
exists, in the county of Halifax, which is re-
garded, however, as only feeble indication of
the proximity Of coal. Coal has been dis
covered on the Dan, few miles below Leaks
Vile, and all the level lands Of the Dan, called
the " Meadows" lying around and some dis
lance below Leaksyille, and penetrating into
Pittsylvania county, are based on slate lying
only few feet below the surfaee-the sand
stones also abound. The pervading impression
is that coal exists below these states.

Mr.. stockton Excluded from the Senate.

The temptation to succumb to partisan in
auences was too strong for the Senate to resist
in the case of the New Jersey Senatorship.
What was done in that body Saturday by the
vote of Mr.. STOCKTON was undone Tuesday by
the rejection of his vote.
The exclusion Of Mr.. Stockton is due first
to Mr.. MORRILL's dishonorable breach of faith
in voting in violation Of his arrangement with
Mr.. WRIGHT, Of New Jersey, and secondly 10
the partisan unscrupulousness of the Radicals,
who find it important to command two-thirds
vote, so as to be enabled to pass their reyolu-
tionary measures over the Presidents veto.
The exclusion of Mr.. STOCKTON will silence
one Conservative vote, and substitute for it,
most probably, Radical vote-equal to
gain of two votes.
1t is understood that the New Jersey Legis-
lature is holding over from day to day to elect
a Senator in place of Mr.. STOCKTON. The
managers in Congress are in alliance with the
managers in the Northern legislative bodies.
This combination is nothing more nor less than
a conspiracy against the President and the
people.
