Waddell, a Democratic mem ber of Congreee from North Carolina, haa made atill more plain that wbioh aaemad plain enoogh before, but not property understood by many, we lure ooneluded to diaeuas the question this morning. The Amendment, aa to office holding, ia in the following words: Bttttoo a Mo poraon .hall bo a Nan .tor or Itaprm Court Super ty StnU Lwtitmtmr*. or a. tie, AArcw- d ottoor o# an, Hteta, to oapport th.

The wording^of the above amendment dearly ahowa that the Congress passing it only intended to punieh thoee peraone in the Southern State*, who conjointly made the fairs, before the war, and that afterwards engaged in tbo war; and not to punish the merely KunannuL urn- cans, attached to the Legislative, Execu tive end Judicial departments of the State Governments, and only performing oertain duties pressribed by law. As evidaaoe of this, it is known that it requires the conjoint ao tion of the Legislative, Exeoutive and Judicial Deportments of the State Gov ernment lo.makea law perfeot. The diet two may make a law, and yet, if the third, or the Judicial Department, when called upon to decide, does not declare it to bo a law, it is nuf law. A member of the Legislators is aof “ en officer” under our Constitution, aBd is not recognized as "an i ffleer” while sitting ns a mem ber, and making laws, Aa; while, on tire other hand, a Governor is rooognizod as an “offloor" in the making of a law, and a Judge is reoognizod ns au “officer" in declaring what is law. Oongress, therefore, to show clearly its meaning, instead of nsing in tho Amend ment the words, "ass Legislative, Ex ecutive or Judicial offioer,” used the words, “ as a membor of any State Leg islature,” thereby relieving fromjmnish- ment tbo Secretaries, clerks and other ministerial officers of tho Legislative Department. It was evidently done for the purpose of showing, at clearly as possible, that it was only intended to pun ish or withhold offleo thereafter from the law-making powers, or persons, and not the MnnsTiniai, offloers,.who only per formed oertain proscribed duties under the laws—having no power to“repeal”or to “suspend," or to “deolare” the law, as the “ Legislative,” the “ Executive” and the ** Jndielal offioen” have the power to do. This wvs onr decided view of the mat ter at first, tram whioh others differed; but Congress itself has lately stripped the matter of all doubt with any one.— The «ae was this: Lieutenant-Colonel Waddell, of North Carolina, a Demo crat, was elected to Congress. When he appeared last Spring to take his seat, ob jection was made, npon the ground that ho hod, before tho war, lttdd a Judicial office, via: Clerk of theCourtof Appeals, or Supreme Court of North Carolina, and hod takcu an oath to support the Constitution of l he United States, and afterwards was a Lieutenant-Colonel tit the Confederate army. The holding of the office of Clerk, As,, and the service in the Confederate army, were admitted; but it was contended that a Clerk of the Supreme Court, or auy other Court, was note “JuiUotel offioer;” that he had no Judioial functions, but was merely a him utebiai. oFfican, attached to the Judi- eial Department of the State, and was not prohibited from holding office under the 14th Amendment Cor grass sustain ed this view of the matter, and admitted OoL Waddell to bis seat Who, then, under our Constitution, were Exeoutive and Judioial officers be fore the war 1 Our Constitution, before tho war and since, does not raeognixe and authorise bat on* Heecutive offlier in the State, and that one is tha Governor. Both Const!- tutiona, Article % Seotiou 1, (old) and Article 4, Section 1, (new) etf: “The Executive power shall be rested in a Governor, who shall," Aa, Aa Article I, Section 3, old Constitution, says: 'The Legislative Power shall be vetted us two separate end distinct branch es, to-wit: A Senate and House of Hepre- eentatiree, to be styled the General As sembly;" and Article 3, Section 1, new Constitution, says: "The Legislative Power ahatt he vested ut a General At- eemUy, which Shall consist of a Senate and Hounot Representative*. ” Article 8, flash an 1, of the old Oonsti- tution, says: “The Judioial Powers of this Slate sha ’ be vetted ia a Supreme Court for tho Correction of Errors; a Superior, Inferior and J nations' Courts, sue* other Ooserit aa tha Legislature shall, from time to time, ordain tablisb.” Having thus quoted onr Constitution to sustain our view of it, and also pre sented the action of Congress, fully set tling the matter, it mny then be asked, What State and County officers, who held said office* before tho war, and who aftcrwotds engaged in the war, aius now eligible to OFFICE under tho 14th Amendment ? According to our Constitution und laws, and according to the action of Con gress, in the Waddell case, the following offioen, being WMinanun, arc not pro hibited from bolding office under the 14th Amendment,-even had they been Gener als, Colonels, Captains, or Privates, in the Confederate States Army: in the utiiai.ama department.

The article in this morning's paper about tbe Bute University is from the pen of of cue of tbe ablest men and first scholars in the Southern Staton. Ho has been personally and closely identified with education end educational institu tions in this country for many years.— His antbority, experience and practicable wisdom on this question, so all-important to our prosperity tut a State and people, are unimpeaohable, and bis advice should be soriousty considered. Further ar ticles, presenting the most liberal, catho lic and wholesome designs for our ad vancement to high rank in education, will appear in the columns of Tub Hun at an oarly day. Tile Nomination of a Candidate for Governor. Oar neighbor, tho Conetilulion, of yes terday, lias a short communication on this subject, signed "lor Populifrom which we extraot the followiog, to give it our hearty indorsement: It Is expected andldemanded th»t tho person nomi nated ahaU be of the mint unquestioned and un- qiieetloUAble Integrity. None other will suit the tunes, and none other will aatiafy the p4)ople. Let 3 a man above suspicion. Tho financial condition of tho Htate require* that man of tho inoat sterling Integrity be placed at tho beliu. No other than *nch a one can havo tbe oon- fhlcijce of the people, and without their conlldtmco, hi* administration would be a source of continual diatruBt. Let ouch a nomination be made without regard to ringa or oliquoa or faction*, and the peo- *» will acquiesce, otherwise dissatisfaction and di*- ion will ouanc. A correspondent of Tiie Sun, alluding to tiro foregoing, says; It expresses thn real sentiments of the people of Goorgia. Radicals and cor ruptionists, and rings for plunder, have formed a powerful combination, and will, no doubt, mako a desperate effort, se cretly, and by every means in their power, to control the nominstion; and, if they fail in this, will be defeated and tkeii power broken and lost in Georgia.— Tbe great Democratic family of tbo grand old Commonwealth will not be satisfied with any man who is not above suspicion, and oan stand forth tried and pure. The destiny of tbo State is in the hands of her sons. If we will bo vigilsut, truo to principle, true to our wive* and chil dren, our commou heritage, our glorious record and our uoble deoil, a bright fu ture awaits our down-trodden State, An Old Dmmoorat.

Dr. Augicr is to us a stnuigvr personally, aud wo ouly know him from his official acts. We have observed bin public conduct lor years, and as far as wo kuow, be has been pure amid corruption and faithful among the faithless. If Dr. Augier has any pro nounced politics, they are Republican, and this fact increases our admiration of the nun cud offioer—not that his point cal principles are oorrect, but that his honesty and firmness should be so con spicuous in spite of sucb principles He has looked like a white crow among a gathering of filthy buzxards aud hung a brilliant jewel on an Etbiop's ear. Our characters arc formod and take color from thoee with whom we habitually associate, and certainty he who can touoh pitch and not he defiled, is ot purer conversation than he who has never been tempted to wrong and crime. Any sort of a ship can sail on still Waters or glido with the ourrent, but it requires the strength of a Samson, the wisdom of a Solomon, the patience of a J ob and tbe purity of a Lot oombined, to stem tbe torreut of a cor rapt age and drive robbers of States back unto their loathsome and congenial dens The cleansing of the Augean stable* and the killing of the giant robber of Uouut Aventino, were not the least of the twelve labora of Hercules. ready to do his duty. On Monday, the IK; It, bis funeral sermon was preached by Dr. Henderson, in the College Chapel. Tho Masons took charge of his re mains, and, having honored them with Masonic ceremonies, placed them in a vault iu the cemetery, there to remain until the relatives of his wife arrive, when they will carry the corpse, as we learn, to Virginia, tho native State of the deceased. State University. All true men must have conducted that they had cause for congratulation, on reading that portion of the Governor's Meesage which relates to the subject of education. Candor foroes tbe acknowl edgment that it ia worthy of all praise. After thoroughly commending to the General Assembly the l.beral endowment of the State University, he oonclndee thus: “Inmy judgment, there is no pos sible way in which half a million, or even a million of dollars could be invested which would redound so much to the future glory, grandeur and greatness of our no ble old State.” This deserves most careful considera tion. In our judgment, no more impor tant question was ever presented to the people of the State, it is above and beyond all party or political considera tions, for it concerns tbe people of the whole State—no one section, nor one party, nor one denomination; but all—all sections, all parties, and all Churches; and even looks more to tbe future glory and advancement of tbe Htate, than to tbe present benefit of individuals. For what greater evidence of wisdom and philanthropy cun be given, than to lay broad the foundations upon which, in years to come, a superstructure shall be raieed that shall be a crowu of glory to our State, to plant now tho seed whose fruit shall bo enjoyed by generations yet unborn. It needs no prophetic vision to forecust the future on this question of education.— If ever knowledge was power, it is at the present time, and will bo true in a tenfold greater degree in coming years. Tbe power of a people will be uireotly and immediately proportional! to their intelligence and to the diffusion of knowl edge. If we look beyond onr own an noying political strifes, and soe what vig orous efforts our sister States are making in the departments of education, we will be appalled at onr own apathy and inert ness. To stand still now, is to fall in the rear in the march of progress; und this can never be. The position of Geor gia is in tho front rank. It is a very plain proposition that if the State has a Uni versity, she should ackuowledgo it as sucb, aud foster it os such, and in so do ing, slio would, in no measure, interfere with tho rights of other educational in stitutions of the State. For a State Uni versity as sueb, in fact, belongs to all tbe denominations of the State, and in its progress and advancement each of tho other inslitutious is equally interested. For, according to our conception, tho ohoroctcr of education given at tho State University, should be supplementary to that given nt the other institutions; should be, as far as possible, technical and professional, rather than gymnastic, and we suppose the authorities possessing the endowment, recommended by the Governor, would endonvor to give it that tendency. There can bo no doubt wo have great faith, in Georgia, in tbe officuoy of ward*. We are apt to think, by passing a series ot resolutions, and calling them by a name, wo can mako it such. How many Uuivcrsitics have we in Georgia inname; while in reality wo havo not one. No; words alone cannot mako a University. Wo need something more; wo need liber al endowments that will enable the au thorities to obtain Professors, competent in numbers and ability, to fill all the de partments demanded by this progressive age. All the departments of technical education must bo providod for. But for tho present we defer this question. With your oonsent wo proposo to discuss this subject iu regard to technical education and tbo relation of tho State thereto. Ruobt. Col, (John C. Mcliolls of Pierce, Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 28 th, 1871. Editor Savannah Morning Newt: Sir— The high tributo paid one of Geor gia's most gifted sons, ono of ltor most successful and risiug lawyers, struck a responsive chord iu, perhaps, a thousand hearts to-day—but no ono greeted it with the appreciative response that thrilled my own.

These traits havo ripened iu the strength aud maturity of a splendid manhood.— For eomo public meu, ono can scaroe keep under glaring faults, aud patch up presentable character; but in tbs case of (’apt.
