JOHN H. MARTIN BjUltor. “ COLUMBUS: 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 ) The Couftiiiulion, which seems framed Tim Coii»uieiei*.i'- Wa-d.ini Says the late i*X C m !*‘dcni*.c wall, Kneed by n gale to put ’ willnfrn renaion and rebellion midl.l be extirpate.!.

Ur/ it will • B, O:■!. r • I ibe l'ro,Wont of the I *. 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.)

Nov. 22.—The Tribune's special says: A letter from an Alabama r ioatmastor says the Union mon aro rigid- v oxcluded from reconstruction conven tions and official positions. Tho World’s special says it is quito cor* tain that Gon. Logan will decline the mis* sion to Mexico. It is believed that no now appo : fitment will be made before tho meet ing of congress. Dr. Craven, from Fort Monroe, who nr** rived this morning, reports Mr. Davis in fair health and sorene mind. Nothing is known at Fort Monroe regarding his trial. The chief justice's interview with the President yesterday related almost wholly to it. It is supposed that the object of concen tration ot military force in the vicinity o( San Antonia, Texas, is for the purpose of looking after French troops. Efforts to secure the parole of Clement C. Clay are unsuccessful. Several personal appeals were made by Mrs. Clay. Stress is laid upon tho fact luat Clay voluntarily surrendered oil hearing that ho was charg ed with complicity in tho assassination of tho President. Tho Herald’s Washington dispatch says it is undeislood that Gen. Howard will de monstrate in his reports the utility of the freedmeu's bureau, and tho advisability of continuing its existence until protection is no longer needed by whites or blacks.
