The GEORGIA REvoLUTIoN.-An At
lauta correspondent Of the New York
Tribune, after giving an account Of the
expulsion of the negroes from the
Georgia Legislature says:
This breach will be followed after the
election by others. The next will be to
deprive the colored mau Of the right to
vote, then he will be stripped Of his cit
izenship, and finally Of the last vestige
Of hi. constitutional rights. 1t is
thought by some that the Democrats
contemplate an effort to remove the
Governor from his office, and put in n
Of their own men. No human being
can conjecture the extent to which this
revolution, inaugurated by the Democ-
racy, will reach. There is every moment
danger Of q fearful outbreak, which
will cause much innocent blood to flow.
This is encouraged by the spirit Of the
press. The editorial fraternity ut the
North must be we'll acquainted with the
spirit. Falsehood, SANDER and vituper-
alton now fill the columns of the South
ern Democratic papers. 1t was never
so in former times. The press was gen.
orally heightened, temperate, and
breathed a spirit Of purity. They sell
dom, even in the ~fiercest political con-
tests, attacked the private character Of
their opponents. 1t is very different
now. One little sheet in Georgia, for
merly unknown outside Of the county
where it is published, is now getting an
extensive circulation by reason Of the
vile ISLANDERS which it contains against
leading Republicans.

An INTERVIEW WITH GENERAL GRANT.
CHICAGO, September 9.-The editor Of
the Post, Of this city, has had az inter-
view with General Grant ut Galena,
and in his paper of this evening gives H
report Of his visit. Upon the point Of
his heightened s%ojourn in Galena, the
General said 81 stay here because |
like my place, my good neighbors, aud
because l want quiet. | did think |
would spend some time ut the watering
places ; but, on second thought, I came
to the conclusion that II stay Mt Sara
toga or Long Branch would be a kind
Of %martyrdom hat l do not care to en-
dure." or his election to the Presi-
dency the General expresses no doubt.
He said to the editor {: If thought |
could serve my country MS well in my
present station as in the Presidential
chair, I should care nothing for an
election. To give up my place rs GEN
eral is a sacrifice. 1t suits me, and |
am grateful that it was given to the it
is for life, and | am sure nothing could
be more gratifying to ones ambition.
But it seemed to be necessary for me to
run as the candidate of those who put
down the rebellion, and so | am in the
field. I suppose that no man eau do
Just what he ant to, and there stop.
Being q candidate, | want to win, Of

REBEL HUMANIry.-As showing the
vast difference in the treatment Of pris-
ouers during the war, the following in
formation, which may be relied on, may
be interesting. General JEFF. @. Thomp-
son, Of the rebel army, who was q pris-
oner for O time at Johnson's Island,
testified to the excellence of the treat
ment received by him and his fellow
prisoners. After his parole, while in
Georgia, he went to And~ersonville, and
was so shocked at what he witnessed
there that in a subsequent visit to Rich
mond no went to Jefferson Davis to urge
that measures be taken to reform the
management Of the prison, where Union
soldiers were starved to death or bru-
tally murdered. Mr.. Davis refused to
do anything, saying that it was easier
to get rid of the Yankee, that way than
in battle.

TERRIBLE SCENE IN A MENAGERIE.-A
terrible accident occurred ut the exhibit
ton Of Ames' Mcnagerie, at Madison,
Indiana, on Wednesday evening, in
which Herr Lengel, the famous lion
tanner and exhibitor, was very seriously
wounded, and narrowly escaped instant
death. He had nearly completed his
usual performance in the lions cage,
and was in the act of firing Off his pis-
toll Us the finale, when ono of the lion
esscs sprnng furiously at him, and tore
the flesh in shreds from his arms and
legs. The unfortunate mans bones
snapped under the terrible violence, and
oil the spectators were stricken with
fear, expecting to see him killed out
right. The employees Of the menagerie,
however, quickly realized the peril of
the situation, and made furious attack
on the lioness with spears and lances.
They succeeded, with some difficulty, in
beating her of, and in rescuing their
comrade, who was Immediately placed
under treatment, and his wounds
dressed. The crowd Of spectators were
thrown into great confusion during the
affair, and many, fearing for their lives,
fed from the scene, but fortunately
none were injured Cincinnati CONNER

SUCCESSFUL EDIToRs.-A good editor,
or competent newspaper conductor, is
like a general or II poet-born, not
made. Exercise aud experience give
facility, but the qualification is innate,
or it ia mover manifested. On the Lon
don daily papers oil the historians, nov
e~lists, poets, essayists, and writers Of
travel, have been tried, and nearly
every n has failed. 81 cam" said
the late editor of the London TmsS,
find any number Of men of genius to
write for me, but very seldom one Of
common sense" Nearly all successful
editors are Of this description. A good
editor seldom writes much for his paper;
he reads, judges, selects. dictates and
combines, and to do MI this we'll he has
but little time for composition. To
write for a paper is one thing to edit
paper is another.
