In another column we give t'.e result ol the election of delegates to the Slate Conven tion from the few coumies that have been hoard from. In only one or two of thesc counties was there more than one ticket run, and the election was conducted in each with perfect order and decorum. It is very evi dent that the almost universal accepiauce by our people of the dual military adjustment • 1 the great sectional questions which so lo g and violently agitated, the country lias pre cluded these questions from any bearing up. >n the recent election. We r. iterate the con viction we have before expressed, that ih* question of union and secession or disunion, did not enter into the canvass for delegates to the State Convention. Men were noi chosen for their past devotion or opposition to the Confederate cause. Tue manifest de sire of our people has been to secure the ser vices of able and experienced gentlemen, upon whose sound judgment, prudeuco and integrity they might rely to carry out the plan of reconstruction of the Union recom mended by President Johnson, and which is favored by the conservative men of the North. We feel confident that the voters of Georgia have not failed in their object, and thst the Convention, shortly to assemble, will prove to the nation by their action, lhat they accept, in good faith, the terms for re union in the great sisterhood of American States, which have been proposed by the President, and which must be approved and religiously maintained by all who sincerely desire the future peace, happiness ami pros perity of the American people. Savannah Institute fur Yuan - Ladles. We invito the attention of our readers to Mr. Lancaster’s advertisement, in our columns, announcing the opening of the above school at Armory Hall, on the 11th inst. From onr information as to the plan of instruction to be adopted, and the teachers to be employed, we are confident that the institution is destined to supply a want long felt in this community, and thst parents in Savannah will hereaftei be enabled to secure for their daughters, at lost*, complete and thorough instruction in all the branches of our •accomplished education. Mr. Lincasterhas been long and favorably known among us as a zealous, faithful and competent teacher.— The Ladies associated with him are of tin* highest social position in Savannah, who now cheerfully contribute to the education 1 their Southern sisters the brilliant intern. and accomplishments which, in more pr t— perous days, were only the graces and orua inenls of privato social life. The the ry of the school contemplates an extension of the list of studies according to the requirements of pupils; a system of c.ilistkeuic exercises is also proposed. The object of the institution is to afford a complete home education for young ladies and we cordially recommend it to patronage. Richmond .County. —At the election in Augusta on Friday, 273 votes only were polled, of which Hon. Charles J. Jenkins re ceived 271, Hon. John P. King 259, Alex ander C. "Walker, 271—n0 opposition. The Transcript says that a more quiet and or derly election was never held in Augu-ta. Brtah County.— Mesers. Henry E. Smith and F. S. Williams, were elected delegates to the Stale Convention, receiving each the en tire vote polled (52.) Bullock County.— Mr. R. Mcßone re ceived 159 votes; Mr Simeon Brewster, 174 and Gen. Peter Cone, 126 votes. We uuder stand that Gun. Cone, who was ill and con fined to hii room was not a candidate. We believe Gen. C. is the senior living member of the State Senate, having represented his county in that body some thirty-five years. Fulton County. —Tne delegates elected are. N. J. Hammond, G.o. W. Adair, and Jared I. Whitaker. A late Washington letter says a good inauv of tfcff collectors of customs and of internal revenue in the South, have filed their bonds nad gone to work, discharging their official duties, in hope that Congress will make pro vision, by a deficiency bill, for their payment. Most of tbeir appointees have been unable to take the stringent oath prepared by Con gress. In its stead they have sworn to bear true and faithful allegiance to the govtrn taent now. The Atlanta New Era, noticing the depar ture of the 68th y. York regiment for Sauah nab, sayi: We will lose our efficient Provost Marshal, Capt. E. Joboeon, who has filled that positfpn for some time in this city, and has given general satisfaction, having shown himself in tbe discharge of his official duties to be courteous, and at the same time firm and impartial. We hope he will he detailed or assigned to the same position in our bister city. - President Johnson has introduced into the White House the largest family circle that ever occupied the Executive Mansion. His family consists of his Wife, a son-in-law, two daughters, and a number of grand-childreD. '•'he son-in-law is Judge Patterson, recently elected Senator from Tennessee. Mrs. P., who h to be the lady of the house, was edu ‘*"*‘l a > Georgetown, during Mr. Polk's ad- Bdoistration, and was then a frequent guest ct his family. (Ooh Am nicin t’ocsix.—The theatrical world, and perhaps a goodly portion of the I rest of mankind in New York, ore just now j considerably excited by a controversy be- I tween Mi-s Laura Keene, the actress and manageress, and Mr J. S. Clarke, res-ee of the Winter Garden Theatre, in reference to the right of property in Tom Taylor's caj i lal Comedy of the above name Miss Keene contends that the exclusive right to play Our American Cousin, vests in herself, she hav ing paid tbe author large sums of money for the original M 5.3., while Mr. Clarke maintains lhat her pretended claim lias been decided ; against her after lull investigation of the 'acis, hy the United Stales Court lorthe East ern Di-lrict ol Pennsylvania,that court having and tided that no copyright vested in Mss K eue, Tom Tayl a, or any one else. The C -urt, however, ‘'suggested that as many fit ciive intro uctians had been made by ev lal .eon- in Mi s K cue's employment, ahich hud b in adopted, she ought, as a natter of e pdi\, to r it v nine c inpensa i u," wili h co,i p sa io i, or a certain -urn agreed Upon, ne had paid to Miss K ene, thus cancelling her claim to auv exclusive right 6iie may have set up to a piece that is now, being played in respectable theatres in vari ous parts of the country. Thus stands the affair, as disclosed in the correspondence in the New York Herald, while the excitement produced is no doubt gieatly increasing the “drawing'’ power of "Our American Cousin a New York. The comedy when first produced in Eng land and in this country produced a great sensation in heatrical circles, and it certainly hid* fair to hold its place on the stage. Like most of the talented playwright’s production-, it is tuim full of effective points and pleasing situations, with enough ot literalary merit and well and, fined, uaturat character, to reader it a most admirable acting piece. It was pro duct don our boards a few evenings since, and though we on y had an opportunity of be ing pr< sent during the performance of the last als of the comedy,we saw enough to satisfy u j that it was the most effective play that has yet been introduced by the new company.— Mr. Raymond, the versatile commedian, shone to rare advantage in the serio-comic part of Asa Treuchard, while the ladies, es pecially Miss Gordon and Miss Cameron, ap peared to great advantage and won favor with tho audience in their respective j characters. What the entire com pany did so well on a first representation they would do eyen better in a second per formance, and we feel confident that a repeti- 1 tion of “Our American Cousin,” so well adapted to the powers of our present excellent j dramatic troupe, would be gratifying to the j admirers if fine acting and sterling comedy. !

The four colored Baptist churches of Savannah, in union with the churches of Hilton Head, St. Helena and Beaufort, have recently formed the “ Zion Baptist Associa tion.” This is something new among the colored churches of the South. According to the Chicago Journal, Maj. Gen. Grover, who was married at Northamp ton, Mass,, a few weeks ago, was not legally tied after all. He didn’t know a marriage certificate was necessary to legalize the thing, and the clergyman employed was like wise ignorant. Two hundred Eaglish factory operatives arrived in Boston last week from Liverpool. They go to Lawrence, Mass., and Fisherville, N. H. One Lancashire man had a wife and thirteen children. The wife was also an op erative, and so were several of the children. Auother family numbered fourteen persons, twelve being children, The children of most of the families have worked in the cotton mills in England, and intend to follow tlie same business here. The Washington correspondent of the N. \ r . Herald says: A few ambitious, self-sacrificing patriots of the Washington “ Grab-all” family are seriously contemplat ing a removal to one or more Southern States, in hope of being returned to Congress. Two or three propose to honor the State ol Georgia by this little plan of “reconstruc tion.” Who else will volunteer? The Slate Road. Col. R. L. Mott, one of the commissioners appointed on the part of the State to receive this road from the military authorities of the United States, gives tbe Columbus Euquirer a gr,inlying statement of the particulars of the transfer. The road was turned over to the Stale on the 25th ult. The United States very liberally proposed to furnish running stock, machinery, tools, &c. The commis sioners look seven locomotives, two station ary eugiues, one hundred boxcars, and could have obtained more bad they asked tor them. The car shops and all necessary machinery were also secured. This stock is an advance made to the road by the government, at prices exceedingly liberal. Tbe commissioners let out contracts for buildiug fourteen bridges on tbe road, to be completed by tbe 15th of December. These contracts were all given to Georgians. Tlie government makes no charge for the repairs made by it, where the road was torn up by its military authority, but charges for repairs of any destruction committed by the Contederato forces. All the nett receipts of the road, obtained by the United States during its administra tion ot its affairs, are to be accounted for to tbe State. The commissioners found General Howard, tho military officer in command, liberal and accommodating in his dealings with them, aud nis instructions from tbe War Depart ment equally satislactory. Tue eommissioneis have made application to tlie President of the Uuited States for pro visions for the hands employed on the road. Tho country is a complete waste for twenty of thirty miles on eacu side ot tho road, and cannot possibly turuish provisions. —Atlanta Intelligencer. A Partv of Georgians at Washington. The New York Herald says : A number of the leading men of Georgia were on a visit to the National capital last week and had very interesting conferences with the Secretary of the Interior, Mr. Harlan, and Commissioner of Agriculture,' Mr. Newton. The Georgians staled that there was great destitution amoug their people, and a great demand for books containing the recently enacted laws of the United Slates. The 8 cretary informed them that, all through the rebellion, quotas of documents tor the Slate were printed with the same regularity as previously. Those for the re bellious States bad been carefully stored away, and would now that the national au thority had been restored, soon be distribu ted. Tlie Georgia gentlemen were much pleased with the results ot their visit in all respects, aud represented to the Secretary that the people generally in their State re gatded tue issues of the war as fully settled, considered slavery completely dead, ami were desirous of again beiug able to take tbeir proper position in tbe Union. They said that recently there had been much improvement in the relation of planters and negroes. On first acquiring their freedom, the latter, in that exuberance of their joy, were disposed to abandon their rural employ ments and flock to towns, but now they have generally resumed their former occupations on plantations, and are working indnstrious i ly. With tbe Commissioner of Agriculture the Georgians pertected arrangements for ] the distribution of seeds in their State. The Fspardoned Mississippi Legislators. A despatch from Jackson, Miss., says that Governor Sharkey has given the opinion that unpardoned legislators will not be able to take their seats, adding that, this will make General llumDhreys, the gubernatoral candi date, ineligible. Our telegraphic dispatches this morning, it will be seen, state that Gen. Humphreys was pardoned on Friday.

Detective Business of the Provost Mar shal's Department.— The detective business of tbe Provost Marshal’s Department has not been greater since the war than it now is.— The mustering out of officers at the close ol llie rebellion, with the consequent exaaiina tion of papers and settling their accouuts, has brentgiit to light innumerable cases of peculation which require the apprehension of persons in nearly every State in the Union. A vast amount of petty chicanery was in dulged in during the war hy uniformed of ficials, who little expected the government would ever go to the expense of sending de tectives from Maine to California to ferret it out.

IN the year 1846, tho writer embarked in the Drug Business in the city of Philadelphia, and while thus engaged, made bw ral expel intents in regard to the n*o<t desirable mode of prepari. g Fluid Extracts. My efiorts being snccessftil—th© articles being approved nnd Uied bv tho Medical frailty—l was deßirous of placing them before tho public, but hesitat cl for pome time before concluding to resort to newspaper advertising, knowing of the prejudices that existed in the minds of many against using advertised Medicines or Nos-rums but through the novice of friends and those who had used them this objection was overcome. After IS y are' xertions, commencing in a small wnv, the popularity of ray articles Ims ixte ded to all parts of the United States, and widely throughout Foreign countries—and this in the face of ratuh opposition. Every means has been resorted to by unprincipl and and . ul cr.s since their merit and succ< ss have b»en known such aa advertising larger bottles at less price. Censur ng all other proparati ms, and even copying my advertise ments—but lam happy to state that out ot the many who have resorted to this, none have been successful. .MY OBJECT in this notice is to make facts known to the public and respectable dealers, believing, after so many years' ex ertions, that the Druggists will disc uutenance such proceedings, and that the reputation of my articles may not be damaged by the use of Inferior or spurious ones. Knowing that many may read this article who are unacquulnted with me, I append a few remaiks from those of my native city, and whose names are known in all parts of the world: “Being personally acquainted with Mr. H. T. Helm bold. it affords me pleasure in stating I have been most favorably Impressed with his energy aud integri ty, aud gratified at his seccess ” WM.

J “We do not like to advertise worthless wares, or articles calculated to deceive our readers; and when we see an advertiser like Mr. Helmbold, whom we have known for years, gradually extend his advertising from year to year until he becomes the largest adver tiser in the United fetates, we are satisfied that the statements in regard to his articles must be correct.’ The writer reluctantly inserts the above, and won id not do so were he not a stronger to many; and con cludes by satins: the name- o. his articles, and the diseases for which they have been used by manv thou sands with complete *access. • [AnvFnriPE\i£.vT.)
