)r Savannah National Republican:
Xbo Chief event of tlie past four days
has been the appointment of new “Civil
Police” officers, and we are glad to see
such live, energetic men at the head. We
trust the force will be subjected to a
thorough overhauling.
More Arrivals.
Twenty-four New _ York “roughs”
smuggled themselves aboard of the steam
er “Idaho" which arrived in this port
Friday evening. Part of the crew have
taken their departure for unknown re-
„i 0US ; the remainder have determined to
favor our goodly city with a visit. We
sincerely hope it may be a short one.
The negro burglars seem to have made
some very profitable ‘•hauls” during tlie
past week, judging from the number of
robberies reported in the morning pa
pers, hut thoir profits will be lessened
speedily.
The New York gambler noticed in
our last espistle has not been favored
with such a good ran of luck .its he at
hist anticipated. We regret to hear that
he has become financially embarrassed
during the past week. We would advise
that engineer to forsake such company,
il lie lias any respect for himself and a
proper regard for his pocketbook.
A certain boarding house not a great
way from Bryan street is gaining rather
a hard name, as tlie headquarters of the
Now York “cracksmen,”
Wonder if those “gamblers” satisfied
themselves as to the identity of the “ De
tective’’ force last Thursday morning ?
Their observations were; taken while
standing near the entrance of the “Pro
vost Court” room. Perhaps they have
discovered a “comet” in the detective
firmament.
The mysterious and confidential “young
man’’ has been very quiet since oUr last
writing; we noticed him in the Theatre
moving around quite “nervously” a few
evenings since; he still seems to have a,
peculiar affection for certain “classical’
localities.
Wo were greatly amused while
noticing the manoeuvres of two notorious
personages, D—-—t and B e, who
hovered around the market Iqst Satur
day afternoon in a very suspicious man
ner. They appeared to be watching a group
of “Detectives” and followed in the foot
steps of one as soon as he started off.
(Query ?) What was that scrap of news
paper D 1 seemed so intent on read
ing? We congratulate these fellows upon
their good luck in not being at their usua 1
haunts when that guard called for them
to perform military escort.
That unearthly yelling still continues
at the Threatre to the great annoyance
of all decorous and quiet Theatre-goers.
Where are the Police ?

tind themselves bereft of all they had left, because

“honesty is the best policy,” let her people, one

Notes, dated
specie ob six per cent, bonds of this State, six
months after a treaty of peace shall have been
ratified between the United States and the
Confederate States,” and made receivable in
all dues to the State and the Western & At
lantic Railroad, were issued under authority
of an Act of 12th Dec., 1862. appropriating
$400,000 to Georgia Hospital and Relief As
sociation ; Act of Dec. 6, 1862, appropriating
$2,500,000 for the relief and support of In
digent Soldiers’ Families, and, also under the
12th Section of tho General Appropriate
Act of 1862, appropriating $1,500 for clothiDg,
shoes, hats, etc., for the destitute Georgia
soldiers in the Confederate service, and the
22d Section of the same Act providing for any
deficiency in the Treasury.
The authority and reasons for the issue of
Treasury Certificates of Deposit can be best
given by copying the entire Act, which is as
follows :
“AN ACT, To cancel certain portions of the
Georgia Treasnry Notes lately issued, by is
suing Treasury Certificates of Deposit, and
for other purposes:
Whereas, His Excellency the Governor, in
his late Annual Message, represents that
Bankers, Capitalists and others holding
Georgia Treasury Notes, desire to have the
same cancelled by receiving in lieu of said
Notes Treasury Certificate* of Deposit for
larger amounts, binding tfie State to the
same obligations contained in the face of
said Notes, ,
Sec. 1. Be it tnucCsti by the General Assem
bly of the State of Georgia, That, upon the
presentation to the State Treasury of Fire
Thousand Dollars, or any large amount, of,
Georgia Treasury Notes, by any holder who
may desire the same to be cancelled by the is
sue of Treasury Certificates of Deposit, it
shall be the duty of the Treasurer to receive,
and give Certificates of Deposit in sums of
not less than Five Thousand Dollars for the
same; and said Treasury Certificates to be
made payable in the same manner as is ex
pressed in the face of the Treasury Notes thus
cancelled.
Sec. 2. Be it further enacted, That upon the
issue of said Treasury Certificates, they shall
be taken to the Comptroller General, who
shall register and countersign the same; the
Registry shall contain the date of issue, the
number and amount of each Certificate is
sued.
Sec. 3. Be it farther enacted, That upou
said Treasury Notes being taken up, each
number shall be marked redeemed “by Certifi
cate” in the Registry Book in the Comptroller
General’s Office, and once in every two months
the Treasurer and Comptroller General shall,
in the presence of the Governor, burn said
notes thus cancelled, and his Excellency will
cause the proceedings to be entered ppon the
Minutes of the Executive Department, and
the Treasurer and Comptroller General are
hereby directed, in their general Reports, to
give the amount of Treasury Notes thus can
celled, and the amount of Treasury portifiegtes
thus issued; Provide^, That the cancelling
of these Notes shall not be reported among
the receipts and disbursements at the Treasu
ry* Provided, farther, That parties who hold
said Treasury Notes shall pay all expenses of
printiug and’carrying into effect the provisions
of this Act.
Sec. 4. All conflicting laws are hereby re
pealed.
Assented to Dec. 14. 1863. " 4^
The State Treasury Notes payable in “Con
federate Treasury Notes” on the 25th Decern
her, 1864 and 1865, “If presented within three
months after maturity, otherwise not redeem
able except in payment of Baltic Dues,” vpere
issued to anticipate the faxes, under Acts of
liec. 12, 1863, Joint Resolution of the Legis
lature, approved March 12th, 1864, and the
General Appropriation Act of Nov. 18th, 1864
$8,665,000 were issued under Act of 1863 and
Resolution of 1864, $2,993,500 of which have
been redeemed and burned by authority of Act
and Resolution of Legislature of November,
1864,' leaving $5,101,oOO outstanding, and
$70,000 were issued under Act of 1864, leaving
of this class Notes, (of both issues) outstanding
the sum of $5,171,500.
The State Change hills were issued under
Acts'assented to December 5ib, 1862, and
December 14th, 186J. Both Acts authorized
the Treasurer to pay out said Change Bills for
for appropriations made by the Legislature, on
claims against the State. There were original
ly issued under these Acts $1,463,192 of these
Change Bills—$465,416 15 of which have
been burned by authority of the Legislature,
leaving outstanding $997,775 85.
I have thus, I hope, given your Excellency the
information asked for. I have been particular
to refer to each and every Act by which the debt
has been created for several years past, because
it will be Docessary f or the Legislature to taka
some action in relation to the same. Before the
Ordinanco of Secession, the character <“>d credit
' .... jljju
of nq State in the Union stood higher than tha
of Georgia. Her Bpndt commanded perhaps
higher premium than that of anj other State, ana
even since the close of the war, her Bonds are at
a higher premium than any other Southern State
This has been produced by her former good faith
to *11 of her obligations, and her promptness J n
meeting them, her rqpidly growing wealth, #o
It is tine the results of her unwise action of 1861
has placed it out of her power at this time to pay
her obligations as promptly as in the past. Tbe
abolition of slavery by the general Government
has, for the present at least, crippled her not a
little- Notwithstanding this, and that her debt
seems large, jet her “Poblic Property,” or As
sets, are also large, and her other resources are
also still great. Her people are still energetic,
hopeful and honest, aod with the blessing! of an
All-wise, Farseeing Providence, it is to be hoped
that the present evil is birt a (emporary ona, or
that, in (he end, R will prove no evil at all. \After
the State shall hwe been restored to civil, laif
and order again, going along as of old as a mem
ber’of tha Union, w ith all of its machinery at
work, and its resources being developed and uied,
it is to be hoped'that she will scop rise and
rapidly progress again at jn the pqst, and in the
ooqrM o( tiiqe-be even wore prosperous than be-
fora. Under .these oircqmstances, then, U la to
by fcopeq that the ^tgUUtqft, in iM *ooiWv*Uoo
t r
some
the Banks and Capitalists and others to take a
portion of these securities, and at a time, too,
when they would have got larger into est from
other States, and individuals, aod who only took
them in preference to other securities to maint in
the character and credit of the State—as an qlfi-
cer of the State who advised executors, adminis
trators, guardians and widows to invest in Geor.
gia Bonds and Treasury Notes, giving it as his
opinion that “although tfie Confederacy might
fail, yet, that Georgia would still be true to her
obligations"—and, us an officer of the State, who,
for years, in my Annual Reports, have attempted
to convince the world that Georgia securities of
all kinds were better securities than those of any
Government or State. I deem it my duty to say
something moro at this time, particulary in re
lation to the obligations assumed by the repre
sentatives of the people ol Georgia during the
past four or five years.
It will be perceived t.y the particular aocount
of tho public debt given in this Report, that that
portion of it created during the late war rests
upon ths highest moral as well as legal conside
rations. The Banks of < he State holding their
charters from her, and ever acknowledging the
obligation, to. answer promptly her demands for
assistance, placed at her disposal, in response to
the oall of her Legislature and Executive, Mil
lions of Dollars, relying upon the honor of Geor
gia (which has never yet been tarnished.) to
redeem her solemn pledge of repayment. Thou
sands of private citizens acted in like manner,
upon the same pledge of the publie faith and
credit. Most of.tbe funds thus obtained by the
issue of Treasury Notes or Bonds were nsed to
clothe and feci the naked and starving families
of poor soldiers, sent to the field by the authority
of the State or the coercive oousoription of the Con
federate Government; they were used te provide
for the pressing wants of the soldiers themselves,
when reduced almost to nakedness and exposed
to the snows and rigors of winter campaigns;
they were used to establish and maintain hospitals
where the sick and wounded veterans might be
properly cared for and saved from death.
Who can estimate the numbe'r of women and
chidren thus preserved from starvation, and
the hosts of gallant men who lives have been
prolonged to bless their families and their suf
fering country ? What haye the political
questions of the \yar to do with this matter ?
whether the war was right or wrong, wag it
not at the call of-the State and by tbe coercion
of the Confederate Government that tens of
thousands of our men went to battle, periling
health, limb and life, in a cause which %iey
believed to be just, and leaving behind them
wives and children and mothers, dependent
upon the maternal c<pe of the State ? How
could the State refuse to make provision for
those men and their fatniles ? And how can
the State now drive away from the door of her
Treasury tlie public creditors who enabled Tier
to discharge so sacred a duty ? If the State
did her duty to the suffering soldier in the field
and hik famishing little ones at htfme. it was
because public spirited men furnished tbe pro
visions, clothing and money, and took ip ex
change the Treasury Notes or Bonds which
mere issueif with the unanimous assent of the
whole State; there was no division, no op/iosi-
tiun, no objection, from am/ z/iuirter whatever to
their issue to meet the appropriations made,
and thereby the promise to pay them was the
solemn pledge ot the whole people, of the State;
and can these creditors now, without infinite
dishonor to Georgia, be sent away loaded down
with repudiated paper!
Again. The Confederate Government in
1861 imposed an onerous tax on our people,
which they were far from beihg then able or
willin^o pay, so unused were they to soph
burdens—nevertheless, they could have been
compelled to pay it, (as the citizens of Mississip
pi and other States, where the State did not
assume it, had to pay it,) as there were no
means, even had there been a desird, to resist
the regular Legislation of a Government
which they were then supporting with arms in
their hands. The State of Georgia, to relieve
the people from immediate pressure, assumed
to pay the tax, and did so, raising the neces
sary funds therefor by the issue and sale of her
bonds. Here, thefi, is indebtedness, created
with the utmost deliberation, for the express
purpose of relieving the tax payers of Georgia
at the time, from an oncroas tax—they were
relieved by the contribution of a portion of oar
banks, and their fellow-ciiizens, including Exe
cutors, Administrators, Guirdians,* &c., who
advanced their money and received the promise
of Georgia, under the Great Seal of the State,
to repay the principal and interest to the credi
tors who had trusted to the honor of her peo
ple. Can such creditors be sent away from
the door of the Treasury with the derisive reply
that the people of Georgia acknowledge no ob
ligation arising out of a “rebellious war ?’
Methinks the world would cry “shame /” The
same line of arrgnment will apply to every class
of the public war debt,
We have Buttered terribly by the calamitous
lyar just closed—we have lost countless millions
of property—but than God, our honor aDd man
bodd are left to us, for a heritage to our children
and let not the ulcer of Repudiation consume
what'tbe blood and fir? of battle could not de
stroy, oqr integrity of conscience aqd prifle of
soul! , ,
Raving said this much,I now leave the matter for
the action of the Legislature, To have said less
under the oircumstanoes, would not in my opin
ion/ have been rendering justice to the whole
people of the State.
Besides having been connected with the mat
ter as above s'ated, should the representatives of
the people in tbe Legislature bereaf'er decline or
refuse to recognize tbe good faith aDd honor of
the State in this matter, and the Banks should
find that they bare become totally bankrupt, and
tbe bill bolder* of said habks ahall find that they
will get iittlpor nothing on the bank bills, be
cause of tbe failure of the Slate to redeem its
Treasury Notes aod Bonds; and the Charters of
these Banks shall be forfeited, and the private
property or their stockholders shall be put upon
the block and sold, anfl any °‘ lb? “* r Q? d , er ? 1
penniless, b-cauae of the failure of theState to
make good its promises; notwithstanding my
agency in tbe matter aa an officer and the agent
of the Bute, 1 desire to stand blameless before
them and tbe world ! Qr sBhalfl the capitalists
and others find his of her earnings or savings for
years, gone, because of my representations to
them, and of their full faith in the promUtf of
guardians, had in the premises of the State and
they ahall be turned out upon the cold charities
of the world in a destitute and starving condi
tion, while sorrowing for them in their afflictions,
notwithstanding my agency in the matter, there
will be some consolation in the feeling that, as
an officer oI the State, J did all that I could to
prevent such a date of things! And, finally,
bhould Georgia* good name, and credit, and
fame_ go down, and sne should be held as ft
“repndiator” — should the good old . State,
that gave me birth, be charged with the
violation of her most solemn promises and
pledges, in matters of dollars and cents—thould

rowed money of her Bank?, of her citizens, of
her widows and orphans, and ot others, by is
suing Bonds and Treasury Notes with solemn
promises to pay the same, and then, without any
default on tne pafrt of those who gave her their
money and credit, deliberately rtf used to repaylthe
same or any part thereof, and that she aid this,
too because there was no power to compel her
to do justice—should the good old State that we
have all ever been so proud of, be charged with
thus treating her ovrn citizens, (including helpless
women and children, ) or any one else who trust*
ed alone to her uonoit; and in consequence of the
same, sbe shall never have the credit and
high character she once possessed—I desire to
“put it on record,” that I had “no part or lot” in
thus placing her, bat that, aa an offioer of t e
State, and a true loyal citizen. I contended from
the beginning to the endy lor the integrity and
