I SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY T f. c. HOWARD and B. h, 1’RAWFOItD, CO-SDITORS. ATLANTA, GEORGIA \ THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1801. Northern Fraternity* We hare frequently said in these columns that there was, in these evil days, a perfect barren ness of the statesman-like quality among Northern politicians. We reproduce below a most expressive illustration of our bslisf, in the shape of a letter from an authority as high as a.Senatorship in the United States Congress can muko it. What, low, must have been the prevailing notion in Mr. Chandler's rniud while he wa9 penning this disgraceful epistle ? Why, first, that this was a consolidated empire, with h sort of shifting centralization defined aud determined entirely by a majority vote. Sec ondly, of course, that the minority were the subjeotaof the majority, Constitution or no Con stitution. Lastly, this sage Constitutional ad viser of President Lincoln has not the faintest suspicion of the incongruity involved in the idea of a bastinadoed sovereignty. Dissolution of the American Union did not come one hour too soon. The whole body politic was sick un to death. The scramble after Executive pat ronage every four years would have destroyed the Government in twenty years more if a negro had not existed on the continent. The people who could have resisted the bribery and temptation of this ever increasing corruption fund, must have been born of a more robust virtue than that which olaims the fatherhood of Roundheads and New England latter-day saints and propagandists. Dut, after all, our Red Republican Senator was right, but in a sense ho little dreamed cf. This blood letting will certainly have the effect of convincing Abolitionists, after so long a time, that Northern women cannot chase us from our own soil with broom-sticks, an opin ion now sincerely entertained at the North, and will teach greedy tyranuy by the fearful cost that, after all, it is aoout as cheap to keep faith as to break it, and that bullying on paper wins no battles. But here is the letter: Washington, February 11, 1881. Mr Dear Governor : Governor Bingham and myself telegraphed you on Sunday, at the re quest of Massachusetts and New York, to send delegates to the p**aceor Compromise Congress. They admit that we aro right, and they wrong; that no Republican State should have sent del egates i but they are here, and can’t get away. Ohio, Indiana and Rhode Island Are caving in, and there is danger of Illinois, and now they beg us, for God’s sake, to come to their rescue and save the Republican party from rupture. I hope you will send stiff backed men or none. The whole thing was gotten up against my judgment and advice, and will end in thick smoke. Still, I hope, as a matter of courtesy to some of our erring brethren, that you will send the delegates. Truly, your friend, Z. CHANDLER. Ilia Excellency Austin Blair. P. S —Some of the manufacturing States think that a fight would be awful. Without a little blood letting this Union will not, in my esti mation, be tcorth a rush. A Correction. Our neighbor of the “ Intelligencer,” usually so accurate in its statement of facts, has been misrepresented, by a slip of the types, in its report of Mr. Stephen's speech night before last. We would not call attention to the fact, but from the very material importance i f the mistake. Our friend of the “Intelligencer” will remember that, so far from asserting that “the corner-stone of our Government was based upon the unalterable law of God, the equality of races,” Mr. Stephens said just the contrary, and made a most emphatic commont upon the fact. It is important, we would respectfully suggest, to allude to this matter, and give the correction which we are sure will be cheerful ly and promptly done by our friend across the way. ■Excursion from Savannah to Antwerp. The following committee has been formed in regard to an excursion trip from Savannah to Antwerp: lion. Francis 8. Bartow, of Georgia. Laurence M. Keitt, of South Carolina. T. N. Waul, of Texas. I. G. Seymour, of Louisiana. J. P. Anderson, of Florida. W. P. Chilton, of Alabama. Willy P. Harris, of Mississippi. G. G. Baylor, of Texas. All communications asking for information in regard to freights, passage and mails will be addressed to C. G. Baylor, Montgomery, Ala bama. Letter from Savannah- March It, 1M1. On meeting of the Convention this morning, Mr. Fouchd offered »r ordinance directing the authorities of this Bute to turn over io the Confederate States ell the forte, eras, end mu nitions ol war, which were taken from the United 8talcs—a good proposition. If we are going to trust the new government we should at once manifest our confidence therein by piecing under its entire control the whole ques tion of our defences. Communications were received front the commander of Fort Pulaski and the Major of Savannah, the former inviting the Convention to visit the Fort in a body, aud the latter pla cing el their disposal a steamer for that pur pose, which invitations were accepted for Thursday morning at V o'clock, A. M. Mr Styles, of Ware, offered a substitute for all the plans for the reduction of the Legisla ture, which had been proposed, to divide the State Into twenty two Senatorial districts, each to be composed ot six contiguous counties have two Senators—forty four in all. Also an ordinance to raise $500,1100, to be placed at the disposal of the Confederate States. Also to furnish side arms to all officers who have drawn arms from the Slate. Mr. Spencer, of Thomas, offered a substitute for all the reduction propositions, that the State be divided into thirty-three Senatorial distriete, each district to have one Senator, and to sub mit the matter to the people for ratification or rejection. Judge Benning, of Muscogee, proposed to have four Senators and eight Representatives from each Congressional district, as now con stituted. This would give thirty two in the Senate and sixty four in the House. Mr. Clarke, of Dougherty, proposed that the State be divided into twenty two Senatorial districts of six couuties, with two Senators irotn each; and the House to be composed of one hundred and thirty-seven members—one Irons each county; and the countiee of Chatham, Richmond, Bibb, Muacogee, and Fultou, to have two Representatives. Dr. Garvin, of Richmond, offered a plan, di viding the State into ten Senatorial districts, with four Senators from each. Ho exhibited a map of the State, on which he had marked off the ten districts—making the Representative population of each as nearly equal as possible —the range being from 83,000 to 85,000. Some of these districts would be composed of over twenty counties. Mr. Hull, of Clarke, offered a plan, as well as a large number of other delegates. It ap peared that no two members agreed upon any one proposition. Every member seemed to have his own plan, and was resolved to have the Convention adopt it. Pians and counter- plans, substitutes and counter Eubsti'utes, mo tions aud counter motions, were offered in g r *nt profusion and poured in upon the Secretary’s table as thick as hail. The President, Secre tary, aud all the members became confused, and no one knew which* end of the business came foremost. No one could tell what was the question before the Convention or how to proceed. The wheels ot progress became clog ged. Men's ideas were somcwhat/Wd/ed / and but for the good temper which prevailed, con fusion and disorder would have reigned su preme. At length a motion to lay all proposi tions and substitutes on the table, except the original report of the Reduction Committee, prevailed by a small majority, and tbo report was tukeu up. This provides that each Con gressional district, as now constituted, shall be a Senatorial district ni^l be entitled to five Senators, and that the Houseshali be composed of eighty five Representatives. It was ordered to be read, considered, and acted on by sec tions. During the consideration of the first section the Convention adjourned till to mor row, much to the relief ol the President, who was unable to keep them out ot confusion, and of the reporter, who found it impossible to chronicle the proceedings. Almost every member is in favor of reduction, and a very large majority believo it is their duty to make it, but to agree on details will be exceedingly difficult. The synopsis of the permanent Constitution j grade, adopted at Montgomery, which reached us by telegraph, and appeared in th»s morning’s pa pers, gives very general satisfaction. I have no doubt our Convention will adopt it without any serious opposition. Our delegates to Mont gomery are expected here tu-morrow.

The substance of ill various sections is as follows : Hot. 1.

In the following extract from a most strik ing Editorial Letter of our friend of the “ In telligencer,” written from Montgomery, we are tuught the natural relation existing between hair and brains. Our respected cotemporary might have given those gentlemen so unfortu nate as to bn encumbered with a scalp the ben efit of a few more examples than he has fur nished. We believe our distinguished Vice- Preaideut stands in no need of a civic crown to hide hie “diminished head;” and, as for Mr. Keitt, who was here the other night, we think that Absalom himself might have been satisfied with his allowance of hair. We could easily extend this census of heads of our pub lic tnon bearing a fair allowance of brairs un der full “capillary attractions:” “As to the personal appearance of the mem- bora of the Congress, we hope to be pardoned for .a,."* ih.l » l.rg, number of lh.ro nrt bald-headed. This ia an indication of taleut. It will probably be considered, by some, as in bad taste for the writer of this article to speak in complimentary terms of bald-headed men, as he is slightly afflicted that way himself.— But with the exception of Howell Cobb, Rob ert Toombs, and a fow others whom we could ' name, you will seldom find a man of much sense who is not deficient as to his cspillnrv qualifications.” Th« European Embassy* It is uow announced that ths Embassy from tbs Confederate States to European powers will consist of Hon. Wm. L. Yancey, of Alabama, Judge A. P. Rost, of Louisiana, and A. Dudley Maun, of Texts. A piaee in the Embassy was at first tendered to Hon. John Slidell, but he declined it, and the position wee then offered to Judge Rost.

There shall also be an ad ditional monthly allowance, to every General officer commanding in chief, a separate army, actually in the field, the sum of one hundred dollars. 20.

Hale, of New Hampshire, presented two pe titioos from Isaac Jeffries and other oitizens of Pennsylvania, and John F. Woodward and others, praying that “some plan might be de vised for the dissolution of the A mcrican Union." Mr. Webster, of Massachusetts, was unsparing in his denunciation of the petitions, and sug gested that there should have been a preamble to them in these words: “Gentlemen, members of Congress: Where as, at the commencement of the session, you and each of you, took your solemn oaths, in the pretence of God, and on the Holy Evangel ista. that you would support the Constitution of the United States—now, therefore, we pray you to take immediate steps to break up the Union and overthrow the Constitution as soon as you can nd the 09* The Milledgeville Recorder mi the following account between Georgia United States: The United States to Georgia, Dh.

I remember that my father, at my nge, complained greatly of his loss of sight. Is there any blindness in cur family ? You are right in supposing that the exag gerations of the Northern press—permit to say its iulamous slanders and lies on South —has greatly assisted in bringing about the present stale of affairs. But (he cause lay deeper. The North has always nought to share—and to have the lion’s share—of our pioductinns, and seeks it now. Slavery is not a sin. Read (he Bible—with your own plain interpretation, if you believer in Revelation— and you will see that Moses and the Israelites. Christ and Paul, did not so consider it. All this is fully set forth in a sermon by the Itcv. Mr. Van Dyke, Brooklyn on thb Rib of December la.-t. G that and read it.

You can deal as you choose, but just let us alone with it.— Anybody who can put two ideas together must know that we ute us much heund to it as Mu 2-ppa to the wild horse. C'»m« witat may, there is no riddance. We dissolved the Union—anil it is forevti dissolved be assured—to get clear of Yankee meddlesomeness and Puritanical bigotry.

We know our strength. Why, we export over two hundred millions of produce, which ihe world eagerly seeks arid cannot do with out. A six months failure of our export! to Europe would revolutionize every existing Government there as well us at Ihe North.— All know it. Ihe North exports some sixty millions, in competition with the European producers. Why, the North without our cus tom for its manufactures and our produce for its commerce and its exchanges, is neither more nor less than the poorest portion of the civilized world. To that it Ims come on an in- filcl and abstract idea. I would say much more, but my eyes fail me utterly. Can you decipher this? Yours affectionately. J. II. HAMMOND. Mrs. F. 11.
