Th* New Orleana Pieayunt of Tuea- day aaya: “Gorernor Kellogg baa not left the city, aa baa been announced aereral timea, and yeaterday doubt* were expreaa ed whether he would leare at -all." Tt»# Can. af the Rlae la Ueld. ware introdneed. We notice the follow. In ita money article, the New York ing: Mr. Gnlledge, to amend aection 3700 Herald, of Saturday, aaya: “Briefly re- of the Code, no aa to make Bleating any- Judos Blatobtobd, of the United Htatea Diet riot Court ift New York, he* decided the! stockholders in netionel benke remain liable in the manner pre scribed by the law so long as they permit their names to remain uyvn the books of the bank and negleot to transfer their stock upon the books to some one who shall accept and snooced to the liability, even though the stock may have been sold and assigned on the back of the cir- tifloate of stock or a power of attorney given to transfer it. Ex Senator Yulke, of Florida gives an emphatio contradiction to a report that he is engaged in baying up claims for slaves emsneipated by Federal authority, in the hope that Congress will hereafter pay them. He says that "the idea of any possible reclamation for slaves is top wild to be entertained by any sano man." This is one of the ltadical bugaboos start, ed at the North since (he late elections. Another is that the Democrats, in the Southorn Htates in whioh they hsvo full power, will rednoe the negroes to a stata of slavary again. It will ba strange if such atttampta to practioe on tha assumed credulity of the people do not reaot with damaging effect upon the heads of those who'make them. The Grand Jury of Spalding county, in their general presentments, respectfully asked the General Assembly of Georgia "to have such steps taken as will bring about a State Constitutional Convention, to take into consideration tha propriety of reducing our representation in the Legis lature, and at the same time so arranging tha services of the same so as to do away with the enormous drain imposed upon the country by too much legislation." Both of those objects are very desira ble, but we fear that the first, at leant, cannot be secured through a convention in which the one hundred and fifty coun ties of Georgia are represented as coun ties, as they now are in the Legislature. The Alabama State Grange of the Fa* trons of Husbandry met in Montgomery on Tuesday. Fifty counties were repre sented by abont one hundred delegates. Le© was represented by O. D. Cox, Ilarri* son Tate and C. A. Peabody; Russell by H. 11. Hunter and Boykin Jones; Macon by E. 8. McWhorter; Bullock by It. D. Thornton. R. H. Powell and F. C. Hull: Chambers, A. P. Stewart and It. B. Lump kin; and Tallapoosa by A. G. Hutchinson and J. N. Slaughter. W. Master W. H Chambers presided, and delivered his an nual addrens, replete with practical infor mation, good sen ho and valuable sugges tions. The reports of the Secretary and TroaHurer were read. At tbo aftoruoon sesHion Gen. A. II. Colquitt, of Georgia, President of the Direct Trade Uuioo, delivered a powerful address on the purposes and objects of the Trade Union. Pbuhaps the most remarkable stretch ing of the Congressional Enforcement act—elastio as it lias been shown to be in a number of cases—is that attempted by Judgo Mackey of a South Carolina State Court. He inHtiucted the grand jury of Fairfield county to inquire and report whether the editor of the Winnsboro’ Nexet had not violated tbo Enforcement act by his articles advisiug the white poo pie in their employment of laborers to give the prefereuco to negroes who votod the Conservative ticket 1 In the first place, it would be difficult to find any warrant for a State Court enforcing an act of Congress, or making up a coho for the cognisance of the Federal courts; and in the next placo, if such advice is, as J udge Maokey imagines, a violation of tbe Enforcement act, it may truly be said that Congressional Reconstruction legis lation deuies to the white people of the Southern States rights denied by law hi no other people on the globe, civilized or uncivilized, ChriHtiau>r Heathen, white or colored. I’m Agin Redemption.— 1 The new cur rency party, juHt organized at Indiauapo- lis, proposes to go it ou tbe general idea of an ol&GJorgiuu of whom Gen. ltobt. Toombs told the Prcsideut last spring. During tbo hard times of ’37, when money waa scarce and the State Bauk was at itH wita’ end, this antute financier of the ru ral districts came to Milledgeville and sought his representative in the Legisla ture. “Mr. Toombs," said he, "we must have more money. We're obleegod to have more mouey." "Well," said Mr. Toombs, iu bis brusque way, “how in the are you going to get it “Out of the State Bank, says tbe finauoier. “But," says Toombs, struck by the earn estness of his constiuont, “how is the State Bank going to get it ?" “Stamp it," said the financier. “Stamp it,” roared Toombs, “and how in the in it going to redeem the mouey it stamps?’ A glow suffused tbo fuoe of the financier. “Why, Mr. Toombs," says be, “that's just what I’m a-oomiu’ too. You see, Mr. Toombs, I’m agin redemption.—Louietillc Co ur.. Jour. viewing tbe events of the last four days, it may be remarked that the notable fea ture of speculation has been tbe Move ment in gold, which has of late akowm auoh steedinoft* aa to elicit more din ary attention. The eauaea that have promoted tbe advance are of both a for eign and local nature. The rise .of the rats of discount of tbe Bank of Eogland, the return of^Americsn securities, their sale in this market for foreign account, the fir nines 4 of exchange, the large shipments of gold—all these influences have combin ed to produce the result which is seen, and it will not be surprising if a further advance takee place. Not a few among the large operators base their expeetationa of the future value of gold upon the reoomg^en- dafiona which they believe will be made to Congress by the President and the Secretary of the Treasury,urging a speedy return to specie payments. It is also thought that, as a preliminary step, the last named official will, at a not distaut day, suspend the sale of government gold, with a view to the accumulation of coin in tbe public vaults. Indeed, there are those who profess to have teen letters from Washington which dearly forexhad- ow this polioy, and upon this faith are basing thsir calculations as to the future course of the market." The temporary commercial and financial movements promoting ilie ri*o in gold are no doubt correctly stated by the Herald. They serve to verify a proposition which is no evident as hardly to need illustration, viz.: that gold, like other commodities, has its relative value governed by supply and demand. "This being the oatte, when we see that the polioy of the Federal Gov ernment creates a permanent demand for the greater portion of the gold coin in the country, and that this policy can be chsnged without rink of loss to the Gov ernment, we are forced to look to a change of this sort as very essential to the desired appreciation of tho national currency. We allude, of courHe, to the yearly requirement of two hundred mil lions of dollars in gold for impost duties. The Government, by this requirement, not only makes gold coin iu general circu lation source, creating a demaud greater than the supply, but it dishonors and de predates its own paper issues by refusing to reooivo them for a large portion of its revenues. It collects tbe gold coin in this way, and throws it upon tbe market, millions of dollars at a time, either by its wotkly or monthly sales in New York, or by its payments of interest to the bondholders. ' This disbursement of mil lions at a time is just the opportunity which gamblers in the money desiro. It playH into their hands exactly. It ouables them to “bull" or “bear" the money mar ket according to their own interest, und every commercial and industrial inter est of tho couutry suffers from their spec ulations. Iu viow of these facts we arc convinced that tho first step which the Government cau tako towards bringing its paper rnonoy up to par va.ue with gold are—1st, to stop increasing tho de mand for gold by requiring it for impost duties ; and, 2d, to honor and appreciate issues by receiving them for all Government dues. Tub South Carolina Delegation. ~ The Washington cor respondent of the Philadelphia Telegraph writes that a dis patch from Charleston, S. C., says: “Samuel Lee, tho negro who waa supposed to be elected iu Rainey's place, as a Dem ocrat, is really defeated by nearly 800 ma jority. The whole delegation in tbe next Houaa from South Carolina will bo Ro- publican." Alabama legislature. Tuemkiy, Dec. lrt.—Mr. Coleman, in tbe Senate, introduced the following bills: To compel the attendance of witnesses in criminal ca«es;to render certain witness es competent iu trials for misdemeanors; to make tbe uncorroborated testimony of an accomplice sufficient to convict—all referred. Mr. Terrell, a bill to establish the Criminal Court of Montgomery— ferred. Mr. Little introduced a bill to exempt practicing physicians from license tax, which Mr. Farden moved to amend by including luwyers, and then, on mo tion, the bill and amendment were laid m tho table. The special order for 12 o’clock—tho bill to repeal the act to regu late the Confinement and discharge of per sons charged with misdemeanors—was taken up. Considerable discussion fol. lowed. We copy from tbe Advertieer uotioe of some of the arguments on both sidos: Mr. Coleman, who introduced tho bill, advocated its passage. He said that the law now on the statute book, was one of tbo most moust rous and revolting that was ever conceived—a free license for crime, aud a premium thereon. Under the working of this bill, crimes untold are being committed, criminals going from town to town, ami county to county, committing orirne under tbe bead of misdemeanors, lie had beard men often say that there is no use or eucou - ageiuent iu reporting crimes, whilst this law exists, lie said no mau who is not guilty is ever uuablo to give bond. Mr. Ervin stated that tbe law worked well in his county, and that he knew of no instance where it had boou abused, lie said thero was an enormous saving iu tbe matter of feeding prisoners, nnd that it was certainly beneficial in that particu lar, aud that iu his part of tho Scato it worked well iu all particulars. Ho did not propose to favor repeal because popu lar clamor favored it. Mr. Terrell said he voted for the law a year ago, but be finds now that a popular clamor exists against it, although there are some beneficial features iu it; but ho would voto for repeal, in obedionce to the wishes of his coustitueuts. Mr. Parks showed that the law, ns it uow stands, keeps the jails from being overrun with prisoners at the expense of the public. Ho held that tbo law did not furnish nu incentive to crime iu his part of the State. He said that the law did uot touch high crimes, aud that the convictions were necessarily for light offences. If the party escapes aud is cap tured, the Penitentiary is the penalty ; if the law is repealed, the boudsmeu suffer. He made several other points against the repeal. Mr. Cobb rejoined that be hoped it would uover go forth that Alabama would disregard honesty and justice for tho sake of aaviug dollars and cents. If this law is to remain on the statute book, the courts of justice had as well bo closed. Jore Haralson moved to iudoflnitoly postpone tbe bill, which motion was lost. He then moved to luy it on tho table, which was also lost by a vdte of 12 to lti. This was evidently a test vote, signifying that the same Senate which passed the bill thing to the value «f om dollar grand lar ceny- Mr. Brantley, to authorize the re demption of land sold for tasea and pur- by tho State. Referred. Mr; Cockrell, for tho protection of ag ricultural laborers (giving them a lien on crops*;; Hr. Faroe!!, to amend section 3001 of the Code, so as to make it a mis demeanor to entice persons from the ful filment of a contract; also, to prohibit* the sale or delivery of agricultural pro ducts in the night time—all referred. Mr. Maples introdneed a resolution rais- ing a joint committee to inquire into and report on the subject of a Board of Equal ization-adopted. Mr. Higgios, a joint memorial to Oongreas to grant pensions surviving soldiers and sail or the Mexican war—adopt ed. Mr. Greene, a resolution instructing the committee on Fees and Salaries to make a rigid examination as to what fees and salaries paid by the State can be reduced, and what dispensed with—adopted. Mr Greene, of Jeffer son, also introduced a joint resolution re questing our Representatives in Congress and our Senators to use all their influence against the passage of tbe Civil Rights bill. Mr. Betts said be did not admit that Alabama had more than one Senator, and he moved to amend by making resolution read “our Senator." This amendment was adopted (ominons for Kponoer.) Mr. Coon Bin 1 the negro members opposed the resolution. It was finally adoptediby a vote of fl7 to 30—two white Radicals, Messrs. Cockrell and Mitchell, voting with the Democrats. All the other Radi cals voted against the resolution, notwith standing the action of their State Con vention last summer.

Cook, Smith and Hartridge, but will unite in u memorial letter to Congress asking that cortain changes be made in tho Federal election law. The Rome Commercial has been told by a prominent dealer in wheat aud flour, and one who keeps informed on such mat ters, that more wheat lias been sown this year iu its seotion than any year of tho last ten ; also, that the wheat prospect wns uover better than it now is. —The Lumpkin Independent says it now appears that but throe white men of Stewart couuly voted for Jack Brown in tbe recent elootion. About a d >zon oth ers refused to vote for Cook, although very convenient to tho polls, which amounts very nearly to so many votes for Brown. —The mysterious disappearance of a darkey, supposed to have been committed to jail in Chatham county, is exciting some curiosity. On Saturday last, when his case was reached, he was sent for, but was not to be found iu the jail. A mag istrate avers that he ordered his commit ment, and a bailiff testifies that bo car ried him to jail, but the jailor maintains that he never received him. —The North Georgia Herald says that Toccoa City, which eighteen mouths ago was a place in the woods, now has a cot ton warehouse, twenty business houses, including two drug stores, two good ho tels, aud severs! private boarding houses, three livery stables, tin shop, barber shop, and two blacksmith shops, with some forty or fifty dwelling houses, and a pop ulation of about five hundred. —The Rome Commercial says that the plauturs in ita sectiou all report that tho cotton crop is about picked out. True there is u little left hero aud there, and a desultory sort of piokiug may go on for two or three weeks, bat it will add very little to the gathered crop. Cotton con sumers may rost assured that they will got but 'very little more cotton from this time out. —The Atlanta Herald, noticing tho farewoll sermon of ono of the ministers of its city, calls him “Geu. Evans." Wo know that Grady's genius soars above con ventionalities. But we really think that even genius might acknowledge that while a former military officer is in the pulpit an a clergyman, the title “General" should be dropped. Decking tbe black gown with the epaulet seems a little too ludicroas.
