A Glimpse at flic Alabama Senate.
MontqoMkky, Nov. 20, 1866.
It is generally conceded that M r. Barne*,
of Chambers, is the most ta!otiled membef.
He wu favorably spoken of for tho U. S.
Senatorship, but refused to allow the use
of his name before the Legislature,
Mr. Lindsay, of Franklin, is n line
debater, and has represented his county
in tbe State Senate for many year*. He
is in favor of tho immediate passage ol
the "Constitutional Amendment,” but is
opposod to any further dictation from the
Federal Government.
Mr. Cooper, of Dallas, is the oldest
member, and ha* more experience as h
legislator than any other. He possesses a
high order of intellect, and received a
complimentary vote on every balloting
for U. B. Senator.
Mr. Crenshaw, President of the Senate,
is the bast parliamentarian in either House.
He gives general satisfaction n* presiding
officer, and exceptions are never Utkon to
hi* ruling*.
Mr. Moren, of Perry, i« the bevt rea*
•oner. He was a surgeon in the C. rv A ,
and it a gentleman of groat moral worth
without working for it, scam to b .
dmiiinuul idoiu* iu the minds of tens ol i
thcuiuuds of negroe* in our midst. They j
have boon engendered by men who an* j
unprincipled, aud who aro now trying to I
injure tho South in coming limos us they
havn in times past.
One of tho great works of the dey is to
inuko the negro forget those falsehoods
that have beau told them, and bmk tho t i- j
lure honestly in the face. They niud '
know that those who have thus beguiled
them are not their friend*, and that foi !
aid, eoun-ol and practical friendship, they
rnUBt look to iho.-n among whom they
were born and iu ihe community with
whom they wish to livo. They must he
shown that there is no midd'n ground for
tUeni to usuuoif'. They must bruin that
they rau»t be friends willi lim white popu
lation of tho South, or tin y a« e their ene
mies, and us such will and muni ho treat

nate creature* cannot real ix.c hi eh h palpa

There cun be no disguising the fuc*. that
thoro is idlene**, coroIcnsnchH nod a disre
gard for thn future among the recently
Hberatcd slaves of the South. These char
acteristics rue integrated with their nature
— they am defects of thn moo. That, in
adtiiti >n tlinroto, there is discontent, in*
*tlt)or(iination. insolence, and, in several
instances, violence, is clearly fULributnhle
to the exaltation and the infatuation pro
duced in tho minds of tho froodmon by

Tho following opinion of tho Chief of
thn Bureau of Military Justin-*, shutting
out tbe claim* for damage* from ptuftwaed
Unionist* in the Southern Status, has just
been rendered. To justify ‘.be notion c *n- |
tom plated by the second ami third nv j
lions of the aot of duly 4, 1861, not only
must the claimant be a loyal citizen, hut
tho claim also must originate in a loyal
State, ihe words "claims of loyal citiv.uu*

as descriptive alike of claims and claim

M r. Sims, of Bartow, offered tho follow
ing :
Resolved, That three commissioners bn
selected by this House, to act in conjunc
tion with a commission to be solocled by
tlm Senate,to proceed to Washington City
at once and confer with tbe Fresident.and
ascertain what should bo done by tho peo
ple of Georgia, cither by their delegates
in Convention or tbeir representatives in
the Legislature, and secure to us, if po.^i-
hie, tho reorganization of our State gov

citizens of the United Stale*.
Resolved further. That said cOuuiiL*
sinners bn aelected in this iiouae by a i ire
nice vote, and when elected they shall'
proceed to Washington immediately, and
report the result of tboir£miisiou to thn
bod? as early as practicable.
A message from tbe Senate wax receiv
ed, informing the House that llm Senate
bad concurred in tbe resolution of the
II- use, adopted on yesterday, to wait on
1’rovisional Governor Johnson, and that
their committee was ready for action.
Mr. Ridley, of Troup, presented the
following preamble and resolution* '.
Whereas, the Congress of the United
Slates has, under the 6ih article of the
Constitution of the United States, pro
posed an amendment of said C<m»>Uluiimi
in the words following, to-wit:
"Neither slavery nor involuntary servi-
i ludc, except O’* a puubhmenl for crinm,
! whereof the parly shall have been dti-.V
j convicted, shall exist within the Unit' d
I State.-, or any place subject to limit juris*
1 diction.
Sec. 2J. Congress shall have power to
| enforce this article by appropriate legisla-
I lion." Which amendment wa* approved
: mu Urn 1-t of February, 1866.
I Therefore bo it Resolved, By thoSoneU
nml House of Representatives of the Sato
of Go o-gin, in General Assembly ir. -'.
That the said amendment to tho Cohtlilii-
(ion ol the United Statu* bo and tho same
in ben by ratified and adopted.
Roftolvod further, That in ratifying tho
anienduient to the Co ml i lull on of tho
United States, we do so, believing that the
Congress .of the United States has tho
power only to make permanent the cupn-
cipation of slaves, and that all rights of
c itizenship can be conferred only by (the
ftaiVif and ‘ffelVeW- v td‘ vWHfeo
contemplated in the Second SucLion of Said
k»i- j amendment, and that nothing ther'ciu d"ir

It is not too much to u-k that on one
sido the plan of restoration shall proceed
in conformity with a willingness to cast
the disorders of the past into oblivion;
and that on tho othor side, the ovideuco of
sincerity in tho future maintenance of the

the ratification of the proposed anti-siavc-

about the longth of their gowns? All
tho country cried sham* on Miss Mulvuny
when the hern of bar bran new Sunday

then they shouted double shame on Mrs. (
Toney Casey all the w#y homo from mas#
when iho next Suuday her dress touched !

we saw that Hint sho’d come out past tho

ho in .•mother silk, a full linger on tho J
ground, b<-hind and before, and sho too
proud to hold it up! and that little vil
lain, Faddy Megawn, coming up Vo her j
in the civil 'ft way and u$king if ho might '
carry home her tail for her ?
And then the row there was between
Tony Casey und hi# wife, tbe little foolish
crayshur, because ho refused her tho i
price of a new gown, with which t-he
wanted to break tne heart of the other
fool, Mis# Mulveny, by doubling tho
longth, and how Mrs. Casey would not
go to luafs Loomis© she couidn'fbave a
longer tail than Mi«* MuWany.
