Our Late Congressional District.

The Union people of the Fourth Dis
trict have, for the last few years, been Pc
culiarly fortunate in their selection of
candidates for Congressional honors. An
exception should perhaps be made for the
candidate of 1862. Mr. Gavin was not a
candidate, however, because of any ability
or fitness on his part for the place; he was
a candidate from circumstances. lie was
from the democratic party and yet favored
the prosecution of the war, and the Union
party DESTROYS of demonstrating the aban-
donment of old party issues, nominated
him on the one issue of the prosecution Of
the war. Subsequent events have con-
vifced us that the Union party lost moth
ing in his defeat.
Col. Grover, our last candidate, though
defeated, exhibited so much ability, honor
and fairness, in his canvass of the District,
that he won the esteem and confidence Of
even his political opponents.
Will Cumback, in his brief Congress
sional career, astonished his friends as
much as he surprised his opponents, by
his readiness, tact and ability, and would,
in a short time, have become a strong and
influential member, Notwithstanding his
youth.
John II. Farquhar, our late rerrese nta-
tive, has, by his uniform courtesy, fair
ness and ability. as we'll as by his jealous
advocacy Of the'right, won the esteem and
admiration of his political friends through.
out the entire country, as we'll as the high
est respect of his opponents. No man in
the State more fully deserves it, He has
discharged the high duties of a member
of the thirty ninth Congress, with an abil-
ity and honesty of purpose, coupled with
a jealous and patriotic devotion to the
best interests Of his constituency which
justly endears him to the Union men of
the District which he represented.
1t is to be regretted that one Of Mr..
Farquhar's ability, character and govern
ing influence should have SO brief a career
in the councils Of the nation, where his in
fuence, his vigilance, and his integrity Of
character were so much felt and needed.
The late re-districting Of the State cuts
off from our District Messrs. Cumback
and Grover. We shall miss these men in
our future conflicts, and we shall find the
weight of their character and their abili-
ty is no small item, when the scale hangs
in doubtful poise. We regret TO part
company with them, and the noble Union.
loving men Of their county. But thank
God, John II. Farquhar is with us yet,and
the rebels of Franklin county are with us
yet, and with the one We will teach the
other wholesome lessons Of loyalty

Hon. r. S. Mallory,

Speaking at a recent mass meeting in
Florida, said GAS the negro was now
entitled to vote, il was tho interest Of the
State that he should be educated and en-
lightened, and made to comprehend the
priceless value of tho ballot, and the i'm
portance to himself and the State Of its
judicious use. The prosperity Of the State
must depend upon the virtue and inteli-
genee Of her people, aud no wise man will
hesitate to do all in his power to elevate
and improve the character and condition
Of the colored race, between whom and
the Southern people an indcstructable
bond of sympathy, based upon thousand
happy memories, exists. Let us fully
aud frankly acknowledge, as we'll by deeds
as By words, their equality with us, before
the law, and regard it as no less just to
ourselves and shom than to our State and
her best Interests to aid in their education,
elevation and enjoyment Of all the rights
which fyliow their new condition"

THE LAST ATTEMPT.

President johnson having failed to
thwart the will OF the American people as
expressed through their Representatives in
Congress, by vetoing the Reconstruction
policy so unanimously adopted by them
both in tho Thirty-ninth and Fortieth
Congresses, an attempt is now being made
to prevent the execution Of the law Of The
land by getting an injunction from the
Supreme Court Of the United States tc
stop further proceedings under said law
Georgia and Mississippi have combined to.
gether and have employed their most emf
nent counsel to try to upset the act of Con.
gress.
On Friday last the Mississippi iujunc-
ton case cane up before the Court on o
motion to file the bill.- Attorney General
stanbery made long argument in opposi-
ton TO the motion, denying the original
jurisdiction Of the Court. Robert j.
Walker spoke in its support. On conclu-
sion of the argument in this case Charles
UConner moved for leave to file bill in
the Georgia case. The Chief Justice said
the Court would take the motions under
sdvisement, and If further argument was
desired. counsel would be notified.
On Monday the Supreme Court refused
leave to the so-called State of Mississippi
to 6le bill against the President of the
United States, to restrain him from execu-
ting the acts of Congress. The Georgia
case was an application TO file bill against
the military commander Of that district, 10
enjoin him from carrying out the nets of
Congress. The Court granted leave in
this case.
A rule Of the Supreme Court reads rs
follows: "Proc,ss issued out of this Court
on any suit in equity, shall be served on
the defendant sixty days before the return
Of said process" The Court ordered SUBJ
penas to be issued against the defendants
in the Georgia bill Of complaint case, as
prayed for by the petitioner. The Court
will adjourn in May, aud as the sixty days
required by the rule cannot occur between
now and that time, tho return day must
necessarily be at the next regular term in
December. Further proceedings in this
case, according to the Interpretation Of
this rule by legal gentleman, will there
fore be postponed until that time.

Reconsideration.

Ex-Gov. Brown, OF Georgia, In letter
to a gentleman in Washington, says the
movement for reconstruction under tho
military law. Is going on we'll throughout
the Southern States, and that they will
soon acquesce In tho measures proposed
by Congress.
The Atlanta Era Of the 26lh says Of
Hon. John O. Breckenridge;
"This distinguished General and renown-
ed statesman has advised his friends TO
accept in good faith the Sherman Recon.
struction bill, as tho surest and only
mode Of restoring tho country TO peace
and quiet. General Breckenridge ranks
among tho greatest Of living statesmen,
and the South will not fail TO heed his
voice on the most important question Of
the day. Let the column move forward
till all complications are overcome and
forever put to rest. The prospect for tho
future is now more hopeful than il has
been at any time within the last two years,
and IL is earnestly to be hoped that moth
ing will occur to prevent the consumma-
ton Of an early and complete settlement
of national difficulties"

terrible case Of the burial alive of hand
some young lady at Jacksonville, Illinois.
Some time last summer, young lady OF
seventeen years of age, suffering with the
tooth ache, went to bed with small phial
of chlorotorm, for the purpose of quiet

found to all Appearances dead, which was
confirmed by thc-opinions of several ply

body. She was then buried. A few
