GEORGIA WE EKIY Ofc I NION. THE WEEKLY OPINION, BY W. L. SCBUQOS AND J. B. BUMBLE. WKDXKSDAY MORNINGi::::NOV. 20. Thk STATE Convention.—The General Order pulillahed elsewhere thU morning, Unit Hie place anil time of meeting of tlie State Convention, recently elected—De- cenitier 0th. 1HG7, at Atlanta. The General Commanding; lias acted promptly In calling the Delegate* together, anil we congratulate these gentlemen upon the fact, that their olllclal lot liaa been ao pleasantly located. No city In the State cun present superior facilities to render (grangers comfortable; and no people could do more to make a sojourn In the city uTeeablu, than will bo done by the people hi re. The Union residents are nu merous, and will extend « hearty greeting to the members. A comfort,dile hall will I, e provided, of ample dimension*, and a o. 1 Hoarding Looses can be secured for all. Atlanta may yet become tlig political eap- ital of Georgia, -is sbe now tlie commer cial centre of 'ate. Tin' New- rproueli of the extra . . in *„,■, Increasing tbc In terest of the, 1 efromtlie Federal Capital. The dispatenea this morning con tain „ munber of Interesting Items, slgnili- cunt of the future policy of the Executive and Legislative Departments of tlie Gov- eminent. , , . It U apparent that tlie breach between the President and Congress has not been closed during tbo recess. The President seemed to bo more defiant. while the members seem determined. Of the result, should a contest occur, there can be little doubt. The extra session, which will ter minate on or before the first Monday of December, will be of paramount Import ance to tbo country; whether for weal or woe remains to be seen. £3?" A special to the New York Times says that there promises^) be a strong pressure to bear upon Congress at Its ap proaching session to secure a largo reduc tion of the tax upon cotton anil woolen fabrics. It is understood tliatCommlsslon- •cr Wells will favor this reduction In Ills annual report, If accompanied by a corres ponding reduction in tlie tariff rates on the same articles. Most of the manufacturers . now concede that the Increased woolen ta riff of last year has been a damage to their interests. Mr. Wells will also recommend tlie repeal of the cotton tax. If the two Interests named unite In their efforts—which they should do, as they do not conflict—they will soon force the Gov ernment to abandon its present restrictive policy. “That Shooting.—Under the above head the Baltimore Sun, referring to the Wise- Pollard rencontre, pointedly Insists that •‘gentlemen from abroad” shall not make a battle-ground of the streets of Baltimore, and well says In conclusion :—“It might be well, too, for the older heads of the South, before Indulging the luxury of writing such letters as led to this encounter, to be think themselves of what may be the con sequence upon the younger ones who have not yet advanced beyond the false educa tion which teaches that such contests may he necessary or honorable/.’ The American also denounces the affair, and inquires of its Richmond cotenipora- vics “whether this transaction has been conducted in accordance with the ‘code’for street-fighting which Is so frequent In that city.” ^ .1 ui>gk Chase.—On the evening of the 15th instant, Judge Chase delivered an ad dress in Richmond at the dedication of the Normal High School for colored people, an abstract of which is given In our special dispatches elsewhere. The Washington Star gays: He strongly advocated the education of the colored people, and hoped there would soon be free seliools throughout the entire South—schools in which there would be no discrimination. It is also stated that in an Interview with 1 the Rev, Mr. llunnl- cutt ho rebuked him for hls extreme Radi cal utterances as calculated to damage the Republican party in the South. Correction.—A lato dispatch from Washington corrects the erroneous state ment telegraphed from Richmond a day or two ago regarding the expenditures of the military government in that State, which were put at live millions of dollars. Now, the entire amount expended for the execu tion of the Reconstruction Act up to Oct. II, was one hundred and forty-live thou sand dollars. Since then,lt has been some what Increased, but it is probably not over two hundred and Ally the*«s*d dollars.— No other expenditures cooKlfct chargeable to this account, unless It be the Freedmen’s Buredu, which for the whole year through out the entire South, spent a total of less than threo and a half millions. Bankruptcy Decision i.v Richmond.— Judge Bond, register in bankruptcy at Richmond, Va.. has delivered an opinion in regard to applications for bankruptcy, similar to that of Judge Batch ford, of N. Y’ork. It is that property acquired or In herited after an application Is tiled is not liable for the debts of the party applying for bankruptcy. This decision, ft is said, will Increase materially the number of ap plicants in Richmond. iy Fitz John Porter sought but did not obtain an Interview With General Grant, on the 15th, on the subject of Ids applica tion to have the sentence In his case set aside. It was reported tiiat the Attorney ■General’s ofllce has furnished the Presi dent with an opinion alllrming hls pow er to reopen the case, set aside the verdict and order a now trial. Richmond, Texas, Nov. 10. After a long silence, one ought to be able to communicate something Interest ing,,but such is not the case this time with your correspondent. The yellow fever has placed a quarantine on travel for some time, and news too. The people In the towns along the Rio Grande have recently suffered severely from a terrible tornado. Brownsville, op posite Mntaiuoras, has been almost razed. The loss of life was fearful. Never have I rend of go large a number of deaths, from a storm or tornado, among a population no greater. This has indeed been a calamit ous year for Texas. The yellow fever had broken out at Brownsville a short time be fore tlie visitation of the storm. The fever lias even reached Han Antonio. The deaths at Huntsville, lu a population often or twelve hundred, were 162, up to the 20th ult. At Navasota, iu a smaller population, the deaths, up to the time men tioned, were 170. This is certainly a very heavy mortality. 1 learn from the Opinion, that numerous emigrant trains are directing their course towards Texas. They will receive a cor dial welcome, and can buy, rent or lease lands on easy terms. Provisions are cheap er In Texas than any other State in the Union, outside of the north western region, and they are nearly as cheap as they are there. Southern men, determined to change their base of operations, can And no place offering greater Inducements than a large portion of Texas. There is hardly any part of the State in which a man cannot raise stock for hls own use, with little or no expense. This year hav ing been one of unusual disaster, we may reasonably hope for some future exemption. Early In the season, while the roads good, and the weather is mild, is the best time for Immigrants to move. In northern and central Texas, although Immigrants have already commenced pouring in, corn is still cheap, being only from fifty to sixty eents a bushel. Exaggerated accounts of the state of society have deterred many from seeking houses and comfort in Texas. This is one of those errors which is hard to correct. Since 1 came here, 1 have read accounts of crimes, committed east of tlie Missis sippi, surpassing any thing that has oc curred in Texas, In the same time. There is no talk of an election for Con volition, nor is it likely that any orders on the subject will bo issued, until General Hancock assumes command of the District In person. This will necessarily be at an early day, for old Jack Frost cannot much longer delay his visit. In consequence of the yellow fever at Galveston and Houston, as well as its pre valence along the lines of railroads leading to these places, the Fall trade has been ex ceedingly dull. On this account, the Win ter trade, when it docs open, will no doubt bo very heavy, and somewhat atone for the dullness of the Fall season. The cotton crop of the State cannot reach 150,000 hales this season. This fall ing off, in connection with the depression of the price, will necessarily causo money to ho very scarce. Sugar planters commenced rolling from a week to ten days ago. The yield is said to be good, and tho article manufactured of an excellent quality. Those engaged in tlie /‘sweetening” business will he flush when they dispose of their crops, for si commands and will continue to command round figures. Unfortunately, sugar plant In" never received much attention In Tex us, her neighboring sister, Louisiana, belnj regarded as better adapted to tho growth of the cane. Hereafter It will receive more attention, especially In that portion of State in which cotton has proved two suc cessive failures. Iter. C3T The receipts for Unties on imports from Nov. 1 to Nov. 9 have been as follows: Boston $341,913; New York $2,498,031, Philadelphia $125,007; Baltimore $238,047; San Francisco, from Oct. G to 12, $100,132. Total, $3,300,390. Returns from the receipts of customs at New Orleans have not been received for two months past, owing to tho prevalence of yellow fever. Instructions havo been sent thither by tho Commissioners of Cus toms to furnish the returns. HTTho Washington Star says that John H. Surratt continues in good health at the jail, and bears his confinement philosoph ically, sometimes engaging in conversa tion with hls sister and a few other rela tions, who occasionally call upon him, but most of his time is employed in reading religious books. Political.—Full returns from Wiscon sin mako Fairchild’s [Rep.] majority for Governor, 5,213. Tho latest returns from Minnesota make the Republican majority 5,000. Tho Legislature will stand as follows: Senate—Republican, lo; Demo crats, 7. House—Republican, 33; Demo crats, 13. _ It was rumored on tho streets yes terday, that Gen. Popo has ordered this Convention to assemble in this city on the tenth of December next, and that the order will appear In the reconstruction radical Journals of tills city, this morning.—Intel ligencer. As the “ order” did not appear in any of the Journals of the city, tho Disunion Rad ical Journal Is no doubt gratified. A Fund for Gov. Andrew’s Family.— Say what people will of Boston, she is not ungrateful to her great men. The rich men there are raising for the late Governor An drew’s family a fluid that Is sure to be $50,000, and may reach $100,000. HP Prince Murat has fought another duel—with the Marquis do Gulllet—and wounded 1dm. Lady in the case. m i. i> ,'TAi j n court for Southern h.mt (,K usoiA—District Court— lion, John /.'/■.si ne, Jutfgn 1 *reei<1 ing—SO- vember, lo. h67.—Ex-Governor Brown, counsel for Foster Blodgett, filed an affida vit, sworn to by said Blodgett, In open Court, tending to prove that he (Blodgett) had some months ago received information from Colonel Fitch, District Attorney, that a charge of perjury wonld bo preferred against him before the grand jury at the mvsent term of the Court; that Colonel Fitch promised to allow hls (Blodgett’s) witnesses to go before the grand Jury: and, also, that he had been informed and be lieved that Colonel Fitch was sick in the city of Now York when the Court met: and, therefore, lie considered it doubtful whether his ease could be brought before tho present grand jury. The object of this affidavit was stated by the counsel to be. to show that there was charge against Mr. Blodgett now nendiii; before the grand Jury, and also to shot why he did not challenge said jurors be fore they were sworn. Colonel Piteh, District Attorney, then resumed his argument In opposition to the motion of ex-Governor Brown as counsel, to he permitted to challenge certain mem bers of the grand Jury on the ground tiiat they had been engaged in tlie late rebellion, in the course of which ho read numerous authorities in support of tho proposition that an Individual member of the grand jury cannot be challenged after he lias been sworn, except for a causo which has arisen since lie was sworn. Counsel for Mr. Blodgett, in reply to the argument of Colonel Fitch, insisted that the Act of Congress of tho 17th of June, 1862, was not passed exclusively for the protection of the Government, but for the protection of every citizen of the Govern ment, and therefore the right of challenge is not confined to the legal representative of the Government, and in support of this construction of the statute he referred to tlie settled policy of the Government, giving the accused a decided advantage over the Government, in the right to challenge the jurors by whom he is to he trieu. lie also showed that he had made his motion to challenge the jurors at the earliest moment when It could be made after Mr. Blodgett had notice that his case was pending before tho grand jury, and before they had found a bill—no final action having yet been had on his case. After the conclusion of the argument of ex-Governor Brown, tlie Court granted the petition of Mr. Blodgett, and ruled that the right of challenge under the first section of the Act of Congress, belonged as well to the accused as to the Government, and ap plied as well to grand jurors as to petit ju rors, and is possessed by every person against whom a criminal charge may be preferred, ami that Mr. "Blodgett having moved to challenge tho jurors at the earli est time that he could. be heard by the Court, lie bus a right to be heard. The Court then informed the grand ju ror. 1 *t when any one of them was chal- ieng • oath prescribed in the second seetl*e .Vet of Congrcssof the 17thof June. .vmild be read to him, and if ho did not choose to take it, he should retire from the box. The names of the jurors objected to were then called, and tho oath read to them by the Clerk of the Court whereupon all the jurors challenged, with the exception of Martin Duggan and John S. Sturtevant, declined to take the oath, and retired from the jury box. The United States Marshal was then di rected to summon thirty-six additional grand jurors from the body of the District to appear in Court at twelve o’clock, M., on Monday next to which hour the Court adjourned.—Sav. Republican. Fight Between Indians and Negroes. The Han Antonia (Texas) Express thus describes a desperate fight that took place recently between colored soldiers and Indians: Major Bacon and Lieutenant Fred. Moore, of the 9th United States cavalry, with an escort of seven men, on their waj down from Fort Lancaster, on tho lltl ultimo, after nightfall, met a white man running at full speed chased by a party of Indians, lie reported that ho was traveling with the mail party when the Indians made the attack. These officers prepared for a fight and pushed onward Home four miles further on they were hailed by Walton, another white man of the mall party whom tlie Indians were after. Still onward they discovered tlie bodies of Corporal Wright and private Irvine, colored, of tlie Ninth, and the mail was found scattered along the road. The mail party, numbering tliree privates and a corporal of tho Ninth, with two white men, left Howard Springs about sunset. Some threo tulles from tlie Springs they were surrounded by about three hundred Indians on horseback, who surrounded and began to close in upon them. Walton says the colored soldiers dismounted and acted very bravely, the corporal acting with great coolness. They fought the Indians for some time, when tho corporal was shot through by a bullet and sunk to the earth; hls last words were: “Take my gun, lam killed.” Upon tho killing or tlie corporal, Walton said to the men: “Now, we must escape”—the Indians S the red around tho mules which carried 9 mails, they having broken loose. In attempting to force their way through, one of the other colored soldiers was killed along with hls horse. Walton abandoned hls animal and took to the rocks and bushes, where ho was found by Major Bacon’s party, and the white man first met got through with a slight wound. The two other colored soldiers havo since reported at Lancaster, one wounded a h the lungs and one through the jr.
