An Able and Kloqaent Document.
I (Special Despatch to Ul9 Savannah Herald.)
| Milledgeville, Oct: 30, 1865.
I fop. E. C. Asdeeson qf Savannah, has re
■ iiortcil the draft of the memorial to the Pre
■ sideut of the United States, relative to the
I pardon ol Jefferson Davis and other disting-
I uiilied political prisoners, to the committee
I of the Convention appointed to memorialize
I the President on that subject. It has been
I accepted by the committee and will be pre-
I seated to the Convention to-day.
j The memorial is as follows.
! To His Excellency Andrew, Johnson Pre-
I sulcnt of the United States :
The delegates of the State of Georgia, in
I Convention assembled, do earnestly invoke
I the Executive clemency in behalf of Jeffer-
I sou Oavis oi Mississippi, Alexander H.
I Stephens, of Georgia, J tines A. Seddon of
! Virginia, A- 6. Magrath of South Carolina,
! William Ailison and David L. Yulee of Flo
rida, and II.W. Mercer of Georgia, now con
tiued as prisoners of war jii Fort Pulaski,
and of all other prisoners simiiariy circum
stanced.
Your Excellency lias been pleased to re
store Mr. Stephens to his liberty. He re-
I turns to the grateful people of the State as a
solemn pledge of the magnanimity which
nilcs flie public council, and his great name
and inllueuce will be potent to revive the
unity of the past and to fructify the wise and
generous policy which your Excellency has
inaugurated.
Emboldened by this example, impelled by
the purest of motives and stimulated by the
prayers of a numerous people, we appeal for
clemency in behalf of the distinguished per
sons we have named. Restore them to
liberty and to the embraces of their families.
Translate them from captivity to the light
of freedom and hope; and the gratitude of the
prisoners will be mingled with the joyful ac
clamations which shall ascend to heaven from
the heart of this people.
Mr. Davis was elevated to his high po
sition by our suffrages, and in response to
our wishes. We imposed upon him a re
sponsibility which he "did not seek originally.
Opposed to the sectional policy to which
public opinion, with irresistible power, final
ly drove him, lie became the exponent o
our principles aud tbo leader ol our cause. He
simply responded to the united voice of his
section.
If he, then, is guilty, so are we. We were
. the principal,—he was our agent. Let not
the retribution of a mighty nation be visited
• upon liis head, while we, who’urged him to
his destiny, are sutlered.lo escape. The liber
al clemency of the government hits been ex
tended over us. VVe breathe the air, aud
experience the blessings of fieedom. We
herefore ask that the leader, who in re
sponse to the democratic instincts of his
nature, the principles of bis party and the
solicitation of his section, became “the head
aud front of our offending,” shall not now
he bruised for our iniquities, nor punished
or our transgressions. «.
Mr. Davis was not the leader of a feeble
and temporary insurrection. He was the
representative of great Ideas and the expo
nent of principles which stirred and consoli
dated a numerous and intelligent people.
The people were not Ids dupes. " They pur
sued the eourse which they adopted of their
own free will and he did not draw them on,
but followed after them.
It is for these reasons that we invoke itfe
Executive clemency in his behalf. His
frame is feeble, his is delicate and
broken by the storms of State. He languish
es out in captivity a vicarious punishment
lor the acts of his people. Thousands ot
hearts are touched with his distress. Thou
sands of prayers ascend to r Heavcn for his
relief. We invoke in his behalf the gener
ous exercise of the prerogative to pardon
which the torn and pTiuciples of the Consti
tution offer as a benificent instrument to a
merciful Executive. We ask the continu
ance of that career of clemency which your
Excellency tins beguu And which alone we
earnestly believe can secure the true unity
and the lasting greatness of the nation. —
Dispensing that rnefey whieli is inculcated
by the example of our Great Master on High,
your uaiue will be transmitted to your coun
trymen as one of the benefactors of mankind,
the Constitution of the couutry renewed
and fortified by your measures, will once
more extend its protection over a contented
aud happy people, founded as it will be upon
the consent and affections, and resting, like
great arch of the Heavens, equally upon all.

THE PRESIDENT’S DISPATCHES CON
CERNING REPUDIATION.
(Special Dispatch to the Savannah Daily Herald. |
Milledgeville, Oct. 30, 1865.
The Convention to-day passed an ordinance
authorizing Ordinaries, Justices of the Infe
rior Court and unofficial citizens to act as
agents of the Freedmen’s Bureau.
The Governor sent in a message at the
morning session, transmitting the following
dispatches received from Washington ;
dispatch 1.
“ Washington, Oct. 28.
“ITO His Excellency, Governor Johnson:
“Your dispatch has been received. The
people of Georgia should not hesitate one
single moment in repudiating every single
dollar of the debt created for the purpose of
aiding the rebellion against the government
of the United States.
“It will not do to levy and collect taxes
from a State and people that are loyal, and
in the Union, to pay a debt that was created
to aid in taking them out of it, thereby sub
verting the Constitution of the United States.
“I do not believe that the great mass of
the people of the State of Georgia, when left
uninfluenced, will ever submit to the pay
ment of a debt which was the main cause of
bringing on their past and present suffering—
the result of the rebellion:
“ They who invested their capjlal iu the
creation of this debt, must meet their fate,
and take it as one of the inevitable results of
the rebellion, though it may seem hard to
ilium.
“It should at once be made known, at
home aqd abroad, that no debt contracted
for the purpose of dissolving the Uuion of
the States, can or will be paid by taxes levied
on the people for such purposes.
(Signed) Anduew Johnson,
President of the United States.”
DISPATCH 11.
“ Washington, Oct. 26, 1865. —To His Ex
cellency, Gov. Johnson: Your several tele
grams have been received. The President
of the United Stales cannot recognize the
people of any State as having resumed the
relations of loyalty to the Union, that admits
as legal obligations, contracts or debts crea
ted by them to promote the cause of the re
bellion.
(Signed) Wm. H. Seward.”
Tbe9e dispatches settle the question as to
the repudiation of the war debt of Georgia.
The Convention was originally nearly unani
mous iu opposition'to repudiation, but will
now, I think, accept the imperative condi
tion upon which the reconstruction of the
State depends.

hen of Savannah to sell the State road and
appropriate the proceeds to meet the State
indebtedness, which was tabled, temporarily,
after a long aud earnest discussion In which
Mr. Hill of Morgan, aDd Mr. Parrot of Bar
