A motion t,» lay t!ii> question on til table was ni tde and entertained, after ob jection* were made by the Chairm whereupon Mr. •'AFFORD appealed f the deei-ion of tin* ('hair, and, without di vision. the decision was sustained.

ITi:i.i:uiunnc is tEU.iuBscin Fioin tho New York Prut* Association Alnlmmu Affair*. 1 Montqomkry, Dee. 11.—Gov. Patton lnv5i perfected financial arrangements in New York for paying the Interest on the foreign loans due January 1st, IsUS, and also cured an extension of time for the payment of the temporary loan heretofore negoti ated In New York, until the tfunuV’ean probably be paid from the dolleetIon of taxes, which saves the sale of Strfto4jpmU under the present depressed coitdhfo/i Oi the Southern securities. Ale—r*. llenry C. Semple, of Alontgome- ry, Joseph il. Speed, of Perry, and eleven other Conservative Republican members of the Reconstruction Convention, who pro tested against tho Constitution, have issued an address, which ably vindicates their position. They assume that the ac tion of the Convention Is in opposition to the sentiment of the Northern people a* expressed in the recent elections, and that the Constitution adopted, violates the dltions of the formation of the Republican party in Alabama, by trascending the re quirements of the Reconstruction Acts, and adding features of proscription and disfranchisement not authorized by there measures. They lxdleve the Northern people will not permit the power of their government to he directed to the abasement and do dntlon of the white population of the South; t!ia they will not sentence the white race of the South to be the servants of tlieir former slaves, even as a punish ment for rebellion. They argue that the vil liberty of the Northern people will be .ilangered by the continued exercise of ro-coiisulM' rule maintained by force over an impoverished and ruined people. The Mmtli admits the thoroughness of the conquest, hut trust to the magnanimity of the conqueror and appeals now to the tri bunal of List resort, to the people. The political power of the blacks is coveted un der the proposed system of suffrage by political adventurers, having no interest in common with the Southern people, as a weapon of offense to l»e wielded for the ac complishment of tlieir selfish schemes of personal aggrandizement, and ’'that the race will readily surrender Itself to the acts and intrigues of designing persons who Hatter tlieir vanity and encourage them in a jealous hate of the white inhab itants or the State. The colored delegates in the Convention moved ns subserviently at tho beck of their Radical managers, as ever slaves did at the command of tlieir masters. The amendment* to the bill of rights, in troduced by Air. Iveffer, that common car riers should make no distinction between citizen* of the States I* designed to secure to colored p -oats at tables,and berths with w uite- inboats. at hotels and on earn. arm *i durable opposition, and is threaten. produce serious dis cord in the Convention, and was with drawn by its author* and advocates, but the colored delegates, the protesting mem ber* arc informed, obliged the Radical ma jority to promise them that the Legislature liouUI and would carry it into effect. /l'lic address alludes to the fact that the Convention refused to provldo separate schools for whites and blacks, and simply provided in the Constitution for the estab lishment of one or more schools In each school district by which, If only ono school should he established in a district, the children of both race* must attend the same school. One of the standing committees unani mously reported an article of the Constitu tion prohibiting intermarriage of whites and black*, which was defeated In deference to the sensibilities of the colored members, many members of the Committee that made the report, receding from tlieir prsitlon and voting to table it. The signers of the address further declare that, entertaing the views they do. they owe it as a duty to the people to warn them against lending themselves to the rut idea tion of the Constitution. They know not what fate majr be In store for the people, but It can reply be worse than that which they ^4“bring on themselves by aiding hi currying the Constitution into effect. Affair* lu Virginia. Richmond, Dec. 11.—Senator Wilson and 8enator Pomeroy arrived here to-day and were present to-night at a caucus of the Republican members of tho Reconstruction Convention at the Capitol. Senator Wil son, It la stated, advised moderation and forbearance In legislation, and on the mat ter of dUftranchiaement not to go beyond the reconstruction acta. « The temper ot the Conservative Conven tion seems to be 1 y reflected In the speech of it* Presided, who expressed his entire willingness to accept the result of tho war as final, but an earnest opposition to the State’s being under tho control of tho colored race. A Family Quarrkl—A domestic muss between a colored “gen’man” and his de voted /row, tills morning, on Prior street, attracted considerable attention, drawing together a largo nutnlwr of colored persons. They indulged freely In mutual wherea personal thrust*, seeming to forgot that (•»' «f 1 they were no longer “twain” hut have, by the marriage vow, been made onk. No blows were passed, and we think it decid edly lucky for the husband that tiiero was ’“cjivvn not, for it i* evident that tho exasperated j Ms Ala Lime is tho I c-t root of tho tico.
