Sunday Morning, Nov. 26, 186fi.
Proposed New County#
By an alteration of the Constitution of
Alabama, tho Legislature ii authorised
to form counties of lees size than has
heretofore boon required. It hai been
proposed for some time to form a new
county out of portions of Russell, Macon
and Chambors, having its centre not far
from Opelika. Tho constitutional im
pediment having been removed, the last
Opelika Recorder says that gentlemen
engaged in taking tho census have ascer*
tained that there is the required popula
tion in the territory proposod to be incor
porated in the new county, and that the
people are almost without exception in
favor of its formation. AVe presume that
Opelika will be the county seat.
The Senate of Tennessee has adopted,
almost unanimously, a resolution dt
manding the punishment of Jeff. Davis
und other prominent Confederate loaders
Only three votes were cast against it. It
was amended, after its introduction, by
adding the nntnoa of James Buchanan
and John C. Breckinridge, who were de
clared to be deserving of lulling infamy
In our articlo of the other day, noticing
the letter from this part of Georgia to the
New York Evening Font, we referred to
tho declarations of Gons. Howard and
Tillsou that tho freedmen should be
made to fulfill their contractu. We now
print in this paper another and lator
speech of Gen. Tillson, In which ho an
nounces that he will make contracts for
the freedmen if they will not make them
for themselves. We diroot, attention t<
tho whole speech, as one attesting a (dear
understanding of tho labor problem in
Georgia, and a determination to do what
is right und just towards belli parties con
corned.
The Mississippi House of Representa
tives, on tho 16th inst., passed the bill es
tablishing County Courts. These courts
consist of the Judge of I*rebate and two
Justices of the Peace. They have Juris
diction of coses in which freedmen, va
grants, &C., are concerned.
Tho bill conferring certain civil light*
upon freedmeu (the provisions of which
we noticed yesterday) has boon laid upon
tho table, but it is supposed that it will
soon be called tip again, or some other
Bio&suro introduced contemplating the
same objects.
Both branches of the Legislature have
passed a bill Using all cotton shipped
from tho State since the 1st of Gotobor
last, or that may bo shipped hereafter,
two dollars por bale; and it has received
the signature of tho Governor.
Wo learn from tho l.a Grange Reporter
that Haralson county gave Mr. Buchanan
a majority el 182 votes. This makes the
vote for tho two candidates stand thus
Buchanan 6,26-1, Bigham2,643,with Schley
and Paulding to hear from. We presume
that Mr. Buchanan's election is beyond
doubt.
The Planters’ Convention, in session at
Montgomery, have invitod an address
from Gon. Bragg. Wo suppose that the
delegates want light ou tho yrape culture;
or possibly some may want to know the
host and quickest way to "turn tho sword
into a ploughshare.”
Wo learu by a private dispatch from
Montgomery, that J. B. McDonald, !>q.,
of Dadoville, wm yesterday elected, by
tho Legislature of Alabama, Solicitor of
tho bih Judicial Circuit of that State. Til
vote stood—McDonald 81, G. D. Hooper,
Ksq., 41. ^
Npcaker i'olfai und the PrealUeut*
A dispatch froiu Washington, of the
22d instant, says: "Ka-Speaker Colfax’s
speech hore, requiring uow tests frem the
South, doos not meet with the President’s
approval—he remains firm in his own
policy."
Mr. Colfax's speech was delivered in
Washington, on tho evening of the 18th
inst., in acknowledgment of a serenade.
Wo copy below the material portion of it
—that portion in which he recapitulated
tho conditions that he would require of
the South, it will bn seen that he de
mands the doclaration^tbat the ordinances
of secession were null and void, not simply
their repeal; requires that the new con
stitutions shall be submitted to and appro
ved by the people; and rather vaguely
intimates his approval of negro suffrage.
These, wo suppose, aro the “now tests”
that tho President is reported as disap
proving.
The following is the pari of Mr. Colfax's
speech referred to ;
Last March, when Congress adjourned,
tho States lately in rebellion were in a
hostile Congress and Cabinet, devising
ways and moans for tho destruction of tho
country. It may not be gonerally known,
hut it has boen repeated to me in lo»ti»
mony of members of the 60-called Con#
federate Congress, that General Lae, the
military head of the robellion, declared,
last February, in bis official character,
that the conte-t was utterly hopeless, but
that their Congress and Cabinet deter
mined to continue the struggle; and two
hundred thousand fell after that on both
tides, in battles around Petersburg and
Richmond. Since the adjournment of tho
Coiled Slates Cod gross not a single re
bellious State has voluntarily surrender*
ed, not un artuy laid down its weapons,
not a regiment abandoned their failing
cause. But the Union armies conquered
a peace—not by compromise or voluntary
submission, but by force of arms. Some
of these members of the so-called Con
federate Congress, who at our adjourn
ment last March wore struggling to blot
this uation from the map of the world,
propose, I understand, to enter Congreu
on the opening day of its session next
month, and resume their tormer business
of governing tho country they struggled
so earnestly to ruin. They say they havo
lost no right*, it soems as if the burning
of the ships of our commerce on the
• •conn, starving our prisoners, and raising
armies to destroy the nation, would im
pair some of those rights until these new
Governments were recognised by Con
gress. (Cheers )

be a long while before it falls due, as l Slate!,
was payable six months ufter the recOgni- '
tion of tho Confederacy by the United
.state*. (Cheers.) This reminds me of
an old friend in Indiana, who said he liked I
vo his notes payable ten days after
convenience. (Laughter, and cries of
good! good!)
But there were other terms on which, I
think, there is no division among the loyal
men of the Union. First, that the Decla
ration of Independence must be recog-
nixed as the law of the laud, and every
man, alien and native, wbite and black,
be protected In the inalienable and God
given rights of life, liberty, and tho pur
suit of happiness.
Mr. Lincoln, in that emancipation pro
clamation, which is tho prou lest wreath
in hi* chaplet of fame (cheer*), not only
gave freedom to slaves, but declared that
p.-iial
No: t i
Government would maintain tiial
freedom. (Applause.) We cannotaban-
don them and leave them defenceless at
the mercy of their former owners. They
must bo protected in their rights of per
son and property. And these freemen
mast have the right to sue in the courts of
justice for all just claims, and to testify
also, so as to have security against outrage
and wrong. 1 call them freomon. not
freedmen. Tho last phrase might have
answered bofore their freodom whs fully
socured, but they should he regarded as
freemen of the nation. (Lcudand enthu
siastic cheers.) Hecond, the amendments
of their .State Constitutions, which have
been adopted by many of their State Con
ventions so reluctantly, under tho pres
sure of dispatche* from the President and
tho Secretary of State, should be ratified
by a majority of their people. Wo all
know but a very small portion of their
voters participated in the election of dole-
gates to these conventions, and nearly, if
not all, the conventions have declared
them in foree without any ratification by
the people. When this crisis has passed,
can they not turn round and say, were
these not adopted under durrsi by the
delegates olected by a majority of vote*
under the provisional governors and mil
itary authorities, and never ratified by a
popular vote: and could they not turn
over theanti-Lecompton argument against
us, and insist, a* wo did, tho Constitution
was not ratified by the people? Many
havo tho effect, but not tho moral effect
whatever. Third, tho President can on
all occasions insist that thoy should elect
Congressmen who could take the oath
proscribed by tho act of 1862; but in de
fiance of this, and insulting the President
and tho country, thoy have, in a largo ma
jority of instances, voted down Union
men who could take tho oath, electing
thoso who boasted that they could not and
would feel disgraced if they mentioned
names. One gontleinan who was elected
in Alabama by a large majority, declared
in his address to the people bofore the
election, that the iron pen of history would
record tho emancipation act as the most i
monstrous dood of cruelty that over dark- I
onod tho annals of any nation, and another
one, who avowed that he gave all possi
ble aid and comfort to the rebellion, and
denounced tho Congress of 1802 as guilty
in enacting such an oath. (A voice, "Put
them on probation.”) Tho South is filled
with men who cannot take the oath which
declares, "I havo not voluntarily taken
jail in tho robellion,” Every conscript
n Ibe Southern army can tuko that oath,
becaiiso he was forced in tho ranks by
their conscription act, and ovory one who
stayed at homo and refused to take a civil
or military oath, were not llie choice of
the States totally in robollion. Fourth,
that while it must be expected that a mi
nority of those States will cherish for
years, perhaps,their foldings of disloyalty,
the country will have a right to expect
that, before their members are admitted
a share in tho government of this coun
try, those who claim a majority of the
peonlo of each of these States should give
oviuenco of their earnest and cheerful loy
alty, not by such spocches as are to com
as "tlioy submitted the issue to tho
arbitrament of war,” but that they are
ready to stand by and fight for the llag of
tho country against all its enemies, at
home or abroad. The danger now is in
too much precipitation. Lei us rather
make haste slowly, and we can then hope
that the foundations of our Government,
when thus constructed on a basis of indis
putable loyalty, will be as eternal as the
stars. (Applause.)
