I would wound the feelings of none, but I am free to say that even a great many who heretofore agreed with me on this subject would disagree with me with respc-ct to the propriety of this view of mine. I have got no purpose to ensure per sona! to myself. My labors here, whatever they be, will be applied to one purpose only, and that is to the honor of the State and to its early admission as a member of tbe United State. ’Government, and its restoration to all its ancient rights, as far as it is permitted to be restored. That is my earnest desire. I want nothing more. I have no particular friends to reward, nor enemies to punish. If there are factions in this State, and combina tions of men forming for unworthy purposes, _______ I am not of them, I fraternize with no class SAVANNAH, GEORGIA. -[ofmen for the distribution of the spoils of government. I will stand alone in my own opinions, let them lead me where they may.— I do not say that I may not coalesce with men opposed to me heretofore, so far as this ques tion is concerned, but I am unwilling to be con- sidered as the first in this convention to pro duce dissension. I therefore withdraw my motion to reconsider this question. (Aii* plause.) Mr. Dupree offered the following resolution, which was, on motion of Mr. Jenkins, referred to committee of sixteen : Resolved, That a commission, consisting of two persons, be appointed by his Excellency the Provisional Governor of Georgia, to pre pare and report to tbe next Legislature what laws will be necessary and proper in conse quence of the alteration made in the funda mental law, and especially to prepare and sub mit a mode for the regulation of labor and the protection and government of the colored population of this State, and that the Legisla ture fix tbe compensation of said commission Mr. Goode, of Houston, introduced the fol lowing ordinance, which was referred to the Committee of It!: READING matteb on every page.

Sec. 2. And be it further ordained, That all official acts and proceedings, judgments, de crees and orders of the several courts of law and equity in this State, rendered since the passage of the ordinance of secession, and all marriages solemnised since the passage of said ordinance, be and the same are hereby ratified and declared as valid and binding as if said ordinance had not been passed. Sec. 3. And be it further ordained, That parole testimony shall be admissable in all courts of law and equity in this State to show the consideration of all unexecuted contracts made and entered into since the passage of the ordinance of secession, and the value of the same, and also to show whether it was the in tention of the contracting parlies that the mo ney called for by said contracts was to be paid in sjiecie or in particular currency. Mr. Doyal introduced the following ordi nance, and moved that it be referred to the com mittee of 16 : An Ordinance for the exemption of certain property from levy and sale. Be it ordained by the people of Georgia, in Convention assembled, That the following property of every debtor who is the head of a family, shall be exempt from levy and sale by i irtuc of any process under the law of this State; and the same shall remain for the use and benefit of the family of such debtors, to wit: One hundred acres of land, including the dwelling house and other improvements, provided the said land shall not derive its chief value from any other cause than its adaptation to agricultural purposes; or, in lieu of the above lands, real estate in any city, town or village, not exceeding three hundred dollars in value: two horses or mules, two cows and calves, twenty head of hogs, and provisions for the family for twelve months, and all house hold and kitchen furniture and plantation tool*. Every debtor claiming the benefit of this ordin ance shall make out a schedule of the property so exempted, and have the same recorded in the office of the clerk of the Superior Court; and, when the schedule is so filed, the onus shall be on the creditor to show that the debtor owns other property than that named in the schedule. If the debtor shall own more land or real estate than is exempted by this ordi nance, the rule for ascertaining, surveying and setting apart the same shall be that prescribed by the present code of Georgia. Any officer levying and selling, or any oreditor pointing out any property exempt from levy un der this ordinance, knowing the same to be ex empt, shall be guilty of a trespass, and the debt or may institute an action and recover from said levying officer or creditor double the value of the property so levied or sold. Tbe debtor shall have no power to alienate or encumber any of the property exempt under this ordinance, but the same may be sold under an order of the presiding Judge of the Superior Court of the circuit where the property may be, and the proceeds thereof invested in other prop erty or appropriated to the use of the family of said debtor, sod the said Judge shall have the power, and ii shall be his duty, to pass such or der, either at chambers or in term, as will effec tually secure said property so exempted to the use and benefit of the family of the debtor; and at the death ef said debtor said property so ex empted under this ordinance should be for tbe use of the wife, if any, during her natural life, and at her death to be equally divided between her children under the age ot 18 years, if any ; if not, to children over that age, or on failure of children, to the next of kin.” Mr. Cochran moved that it be laid on the ta ble, and after some discussion the motion wan carried. Mr. Howard, of Cass, introduced the following which was referred to a committee of three : the ley y or sale of the the^next legislature U3tiI ^joarnment of Be it ordained ty the people of Georgia in Con- venhon assembled, That there shall be no levy or sale of the property of debtors under anv exLu- tion, precept or order, exrept when 'debtors have or are absconding or removing, or are about to remove without the limits of any countv until the adjournment of the next Legislature Unt Be it further ordained, That any officer or other person violating this ordinance shall be liable to be punished by fine, at the discretion of the Su perior Court. The New Constitution. Mr. Jenkins, from Committee of sixteen, reported two articles gi the proposed new Con stitution of tbe State of Georgia, which were then read m follow* > by law for the protection and security of the per sons and property of the tie-dmen of this Stute, and guard them and the State against any evil that may arise from their sudden emancipation. With the exception of those two articles, the Constitution remains, up to the present in so much of it as has as yet been got through by the Committee of sixteen, the same as heretofore. At six o’clock the Convention adjourned to half past nine the following morning. Later in the evening, a lecture was delivered to the members of the Convention, by Brigadier- General Davis Tillson, upon the working ot tbe Bureau of Refugees Freedmen and Abandoned Lands. Ths lecturer gave iu an interesting man ner, a detailed account of tbe great advantages of the bureau. He was listened to throughout with attention by a large attendance of the dele gates. OUR new^yobiLY^etter. [From Our Ofn Correspondent.] New York City, Oct. 28, 1865. The United States and Knylaud. The New York papers of Thursday contained a voluminous correspondence between Mr. Ad ams, tbe American minister in London, and Earl Russell, British Minister for Foreign Affairs, ex tending, id some cases, over eight columns ol the paper. Russell refers to precedents, but Adams meets him with his own weapons and proves that the reverse of Russell’s position is the fact, and convicts him out of his own mouth. The whole tenor of Adams’ reasoning goes to establish the right of compensation which the United States government claims for the depredations of the Alabama and the Shenandoah, which, if not con ceded by the British government the result would be a new system ot neutrality, whereby British ships of commerce might be swept from every sea. Adams pursues his arguments with great ability, and provea tbe hollowness of'British pro fessions ot friendship, and draws a figure to show what th’e consequcDces to Eogland would be if American Florida*, and Alabama*, and Shenan doah* were to swtep over every ocean and every sea, and concluded with a remonstrance and an aspiration that no such evil consequences would result from refusing the just demands of the United States by saying that he should await fur ther instructions from his own government be fore he would enter at greater ieng'h on the sub ject. By the last arrival from Liverpool we have European news down to the 14th instant. The Adams-Russell correspondence was the theme for discussion in all the English papers, and some nervous apprehensions are entertained as to whether or not the question in hand would 'not eventuate iu a breach between England and the United States. Money. In London United States securities were steady in demand and value. English consols ruled at 88 7-8 and 89 for money. Cotton in India. The latest advices from Calcutta and Bom bay report that the raw material was in active demand for Europe at an advance in rates, and that cotton goods and yarns were steadily advancing, with a prospect of daily increasing value. Cotton in "Liverjiool. The sales of cotton in Liverpool in one day were 25,000 hales, 12,000 of which were ta ken by speculators and exporters, and the re mainder taken over for immediate manufac turing purposes. The large supply had not any depressive effect upon the market, which was carried out in a spirit of active excite ment, and prices ruled higher fully a half-pen ny a pound on all sorts. Fenianism in Ireland. Further arrests of persons charged of Fe- niaaism in Ireland had been effected, amongst whom is a captain in the American service.— Great excitement prevailed, and Irish bankers were withdrawing their gold from the Bank of England, fearing a run upon ^jieir paper currency. The Cholera in Tin rope. The cholera had commenced its ravages iu London, but iu Paris and iu Madrid the malady was sweeping with fearful rapidity, the deaths being from 100 to 150 daily, but in Paris and Madrid it had abated and become milder at latest accounts. French Forces in Rome. The French troops, as hitherto reported, have not been as yet, ordered to quit Rome, but it is now stated that some disposition of the garrison is to be effected, and French military power is to be still present in ‘.be Papal territory. Court oj' General Sessions, Mr. Peter R. Strong, a man of opulence and station, and a member of the profession of law, was put on his trial on an indictment charging him with having procured an abortion in his own wife; hut in consequence of tbe absenue of a material witness to sustain tbe charge, the jury, by direction of Mr. Recorder Hoffman, acquitted the prisoner. George Wagner, who had been convicted of tbfe murder of his wife in tbe early sittings of the present session, was yesterday sentenced to death by Mr. Recorder Hoffman, and is to be executed on the 15th December next. ’ Politics. The political movements in the State and city are still in progress, but without any strik ing feature of general public importance. VISION 1 iee, y 3, 18(55.) 157 Street Railway nuisance from those places, might be removed, to the transit of heavy goods in that quarter they allege, had become intolerable, aDd the Company run? cars there only on Sundays to comply with the act of Congress, but the unused tracks in the week days remain and continue the obstruction?. The case is to be farther considered next week. Fires. Soarcely a day or night passes without a de structive fire, and sometimes two or three iu one district or another of the city. Fenianism in Canada. The utmost alarm prevails in Canada on the sabjeot of Fenianism. An invasion is appre hended, and tho Government is called upon to disarm the volunteers, to establish pairols and a passport system. A raid on the Canadian fron tier is feared. Irish Republic Ronds. The bonds of tho projected Irish Republic are ready for issue, a description of which is in every paper in the city. Marine Disasters. The barque Statira, of Halifax, from Pictou to Boston, was abandoned on the 20th inst The crew were saved by the barque Susan Jane. Wreck oj a Schooner. The schooner Ch. E. Lawrence, of Fair Haven, Mr. titannard master, laden with coal, for Provi- deoce, was driven ashore on Staten Island, broke in two and sank near tbe mou.h of tbe Coonec- ticut rivei. There were seven on board, and] ex cept \\ r m. Kertlund, all were lost Kertland es caped by means ol a plank, and was picked up near Long Is’and, after being thirteen hours in the water. Snow. By the Eastern papers we have accounts of heavy falls ot snow at Ashland, Aroostock county, and in Troy in tbe State of Maine. aDd m Canada and Portland on Monday last and following days. Io some places the forests for miles around were laden with snow, and the fall so heavy that tbe depth varied from six to fifteen inches. The fail is early. Reconciliation North and South. Mr. A. H.H. Dawson of Savannah, Ga., on Thursday evening in the Cooper ,Institute, de livered a very interesting lecture on the subject ot Reconciliation, which was heard with great attention and frequently applauded; Frauds on the Revenue. Three hundred barrels of apirits have been seized by the revenue officers, which there was an attempt to smuggle out of New Y'ork without paying duty. A clerk in the custom's depart ment, an ex-rebel officer, aud to extensive house iu Brooklyn are implicated, and proceedings against tbe parties are in course of action. Suicide. Levi L. Farwell, a fugitive from Boston, who was accused ot having murdered his paramour, Harriet YVells, by first administering chloroform and then strangling her. was arrested hera in West Broadway, on Thursday, and taken in cus tody, to the Police headquarters. On that even ing bis supper was conveyed to him on a tin platter, without knife or fork, aud it is presum ed that at dead of night, when all was still he broke the platter in two, and with the sharp cor ner, opened the main artery of his left arm, from which he bled to deatb. Cotton. The cotton market although subject to fluctua tions in demand and value, was still active during the week, but the news from Liverpool had the effect of creating an active, and in some degree, an excited element in the transaction of Thursday, wheD on advance of fully one cent per pound, was realized on every grade of quali ty. Tbe receipts on that day were 1 240 bales, and tbe sales 5,700. the market closed buoyant ly. On Wednesday the sales were : Uplands 49 to 60 ; Florida 47 to 61; Mobile 48 to 61; N. O. and Texas 43 to 62, and yesterday the tone of the market was sluggish with a downward ten dency— Upland 48 to 60 ; Florida 48 to 61; Mo bile 49 to 62 ; N. O. and Texas 49 io 63. Cicsron*. Tnn Corn Crop.—From ail our exchanges, and from all parts of the country, says the Nashville Daily Gazette we receive information that the corn c op of the present season wiD be unprece dentedly large. This is a subject on which we I Enameled hear no complaint from any quarter. The uui- versal warm weather which has so distinguished the present month has contributed essentially to this result, and the intense heat of which we all complained is thus proved to have been one of the blessings in disguise, which we are all taught to expect, but never see till they are past. The same paper contains the following : A Monstbositt.—Yesterday we examined one of the greatest curiosities we ever looked upon ; it was half horse and half negro. It was foaled in tbe government corral some months ago, tbe dam having carried it nine months. The body is almost a perfect horse, with a curly pig’s tail, and head and face resembling a Congo negru.— It lived about eight hours after being foaled, and was presented to Dr. Coleman. Another colt was foaled at the same time, which was tolerably well developed, but it also died. Tbe animal will be on exhibition for some days at tbe saloon on Cherry street near tbe old theatre, and will be pronounced by all visitors tbe greatest curiosity of the day. • HEADQR’S MILITARY DIVISION OF THE TENNESSEE Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 29, General Order, ) No. 82 j All sales made by the United States through the proper officers, to private parties, either of horses, mules or other property, are hereby declared valid, and the title therefor indisputable. Citizens making purchases of such property must not be molested by the civit authority in the possession of the same; and all suits or action pending in the civil eourts, either for the property itself or its money value, will be set aside and considered of no force or effect. The Government of the United States is responsible for any and all property seized for military purpose, and any dam age resulting to private citizens there from is of the same nature as other claims for damage, and will be submitted for adjudication to the proper authorities at Washington.
