The Prvpaiitioß to Sell the State JRoad.
MIUbDCnVILLE, NOV. 1, 1865.
lu Convention this morning Mr. Cohen, of
Sivauuah, Introduced an ordinance to sell
the Western A Atlantic Riilrond. The prin
cipal feature -of the ordinance, and which
gave rise to an animated debate, is the pro
position to appropriate tbepuic.iase niomy
of the road, $10,500,000 to the payment of
the bonds and other liabilities of the State.
Mr. Hill, of Morgan, opposed the motion
to refer the ordinance to a select committee,
on the ground thot it contained an indirect
proposition to recognise and pay the war
debt ot )be State- He was opposed to any
action by this body that would have a ten
dency to prevent or balk the reviving pa
triotism aud loyalty of the people of Georgia.
He did not wish to say anything to stir up
strife. He wished the Convention to pro
ceed with the business before it which was
the adoption only of such measures as would
be necessary for the re-establlshment of ami
cable relations vjlth the General Government.
Se was lor the re-cstab ishment of peace aud
order. We have had enough of strife, ca
lamity and suffer ing. The politicians of the
State had deceived the people into rebellion.
But they had lived to repent their error in
saokcloth and ashes. Ho had had no hand
hr it. lie had suffered, but he was not re
sponsible ibr the cause ot our present sad
and ruined condition. He could say to the
spirits who in that bloody strife had passed
to that buurne “whence no traveller re
turns’’— .
“ Shake not thy gory tucks at me
Tuou canst not say 1 did It,”
Mr. Pnrret, of Birtow, moved the indefl
nate postponement of the ordluance. He
was decidedly opposed to sell ng the State
Road, aud'he wus equally opposed to taking
the money of the people to pay an uncon
stitutional debt. He wa9 especially opposed
to appropriating tbe value of the road, al
most the ouly property of value left to the
State to pay the holders of the State securi
ties, the rich men of the lower section of the
State who remained at home and filled their
pockets with these securities whlie those of
his section were in the bullet department.
He was unwilling to pay these Shylocks,
while the men in upper Georgia, who stood
up in the field while their property and
homes were destroyed by the enemy, remain
ed unpaid. He had heard no voice raised ou
this floor in behalf of the orphans and
widows whose money had been invested by
administrators aud executors, by authority
ol the Legislature, in Confederate bonds.
He considered the obligation of the State to
protect them, and all others who had suffered
|n their property by the war, equally as
binding as was the obligation so strongly
urged lo redeem these securities. If one set
of creditors should be paid all should be paid,
lpe pledges of our delegates.at Richmond
were as bin ling as were the pledges of the
General Assembly. Toe Confederate Gov
ernment tiad gone down ; so had the Georgia
Slate Government as a mt-tuner of that Cou
lederacy ceased to exLt. He thought that nil
war ltabiiliies incurred in the mnsutalnauce of
hat government should go down in the gen
eral wreck.

W.fTT.
Miu.KDotvu.Ls, Nov. 8, 1885.
The C invention wa* occupied this morn
ing in the c tusideration of amendments to
the Constitution. A motion to reconsider
the section reducing the Senate was passed.
TU® State Cotton Sold in Savauaab.
Pending the discussion of other sections, a
resolution was introduced from the Com
mittee of Seven, to whom the subject of the
sale ot State ootton in Savannah had been
referred, asking from tbe Provisional Gov
ernor lull information aa to the amouut of
cotton and tobacco purchased by the State,
by what authority the money was drawn
from ttie treasury for that purpose, what
kind of currenoy was drawn, who were the
agents of the State, how much they received
tor their services, how; much ot the cotton
and tobaeoo was sold, at what prices, &C.,
with many other inquiries, which was
ad pted
Mr. Bsrnes, of Columbia, followed ibis
with a resolutl >a askiug that the Committee
should be authorized to sit permahent y, that
they have power to send for persons and pa
pers, aud that tuey be instructed to make a
full report of all the information elicited by
them in reference to the purchase and sale
of the State Cotton to the next Legislature.
The introduction of these resolutions gave
rise to an animated and somewhat exulted
debate.
Mr. Cohen, of Savannah, opposed the reso
lution on the ground,.ihat the proceeding
was an anomaly lu Legislation. This Ooa
ventiou had bueu Called for a specific pur
pose, and its powers would expire with its
session. This iuvestigaiion was a legitimate
subject for the Legislature, who would not
feel bound to accept a report from this body.
The original resolution only Contemplated
an investigation of the circumstances ot the
sale of certain cotton by the State Ageut, to
Mr. Heury Brigham. He had been appoint
ed ou that committee, and was willing to
serve, though he thought the investigation
properly belonged to the Legislature, who
would have ample time to look thoroughly
into the matter. He # did not think it 'was
proper for the Convention thus to consume
the time which should he devoted to a prompt
discharge of the duties for which it was call
ed—Which was the adoption of measures
necessary to re-establish relations With the
United 8 ntes Government, and to set the
wheels of the civil government of the Buttes
in motion.
Mr Keuan, of Baldwin, differed from Mr.
Cohen. The Convention had already im
posed an cuerous duty ou the Committee,
and they now asked for power to enable
them to petform that duty. He was not for
making the session of the Committee per
manent, but he would give them the powers
they asked during their session.
Col. Hopkins hoped the resolution would
pass There might be more behind the cur
tain in this transaction than the Convention
was aware oil There was mystery about
this stupendous transaction in cotton. The
funds of the State had been used, and he was
desirous of knowing what had become of
them. The matter called for a full investi
gation. It was due to the people of the
Statu, and it was due to the State officials
concerned. If they had acted improperly,
let them Ire condemned j it they were inno
cent, it was due to them that they should be
so declared.
■ Mr. Hill preferred to turn tbe whole mat
ter over to tfie Legislature, where ft more
properly belonged. He was uuwillfug to
impose this labor on the Committee to be
pertonueil alter tbe dissolution ot the Con
vention.
Mr. Barnes desired the passage of his
resolution, hut accepted tbe amendment of
Mr. Kenan.
H' re a confused debate aud interlocutory
conversation sprung up between Mem. Hill,
Kenan, Bernes, Sew ard aud others, to which
the chair put a stop. A motion to lay ou
the table, indefinitely was lost, aud tbe reso
lution as amended was adopted.
The feeling In the Convention is manifest
ly in favor ot a thorough scrutiny into ttie
Cotton transactions to which these resolu
tions reter, even it tbe time of the Commit
tee is extended beyond the Convention. The
investigation will now cover tbe entire cot
ton trausaeiions of tbe last year of Governor.

The Photosed Reduction or the Gsxbraa
Assembly.
The reconsideration of the section of the
Constitution reducing the Senate, with other
action of tbe Convention- to-day, Indicates a
determination on their part to make no re
duction of tbe General Assembly. The pre
vailing argument is that tbe Couvention has
not sufficient time to perfect anew plan of
Legislative representation.

The names of Hon. Clms. J. Jenkins and
Hon. A. H. Stephens, are tbe only ones now
mentioned in connection with the Guberna
torial office. Ido not think these gentlemen
will oppose each oilier, end as I bear noth
ing of the withdrawal of Mr. Jenkins, I
doubt if Mr. Stephens jvlll permit bis Dame
to be used. Either gentleman would be ac

The Pneumatic Railway.— -Some exper
