Closing Address of the Presi dent, Hon. Herschel V. Johnson. [Prom the Mi.coll Telegraph, loth.) On Wednesday the Bth instant, the last day of l he session of the Georgia Convention at Millcdgeviile, after a unanimous vote of thanks to the preaiding officer had lieen passed by the body, and before pronouncing the adjournment ot the Convention, Hon. Herschel V. Johnson, rose amid profound emotion, visible in countenances of all pres ent, aud with the fountains of his ow n great heart swtlliug up to his eyes, aud with fre quent interruption from an inability to con trol his feelings, delivered the following ad dress : Gentlemen of the Convention : The hour des ignated iu the resolution which you have adopted, for the adjourument of ttiis body, has now arrived. The labors which we have beeD convened to perform have beeu com pleted; and we are now about to separate and return to our respective homes. Y'ou have, iu tbe kindness and indulgence of your hearts, tendered to me your uuani ntouc thanks lor the manner in which 1 have discharged the duties devolved upon me as your presiding officer. • It is grateful to my feelings, gentlemen, to have received this evidence of your approbation. When I as sumed the duties assigned me, I promised you that I would do tbe very best 1 could. I have redeemed that pledge witli fidelity. My shortcomings are before you, aud for these I ask your indulgence. If I have erred it has beeu unintentional, and I know I have erred, and for these errors, I ask and crave your pardon. If, in the discharge of my duties, I have been so unfortunate as to appear unjust or barsb, or have inflicted tbe slightest wound upon the feelines of a siugle member of this b< dy, now, in this parting hour and in this presence, I humbly make the amende honorable. We have had before us grave and respon sible trusts. We have been acting not for ourselves, but for those who are to come after us. Many of us will scarcely live to see tbe fruits of our labors. Some here are in the prime and vigor of life—they will live to know whether we have acted wisely or unwisely. Others of us are already upon the Verge ol that other land whither all are tend ing, and iu wlitt-h all will render an aecouut for tbe tnauuer in which they have perform ed their duties; and our cnildren will live to know whether their fathers have been wise in eariug for their interests, and in placing our civil and political institutions upon such a basis as to reuder them permanent and be nign. We have performed the labors assigned us under very unusual circumstances, aud in the midst of an extraordinary and perilous crisis. Wo have passed through a bloody struggle with those with whom we had been previously associated as fellow citizens, as members of tbe same great republic, as de scendants ot the same glorious ancestry, speaking the same language, worshipping the same God, and believing iu the same revelation. How sad tire event, that a bloody strife should have existed among a people so situated, and looking back to the same scenes ot pride and glory which illu minated our past history ! How gadder still, to think, that at the end of such a contest, our country —I mean that portion of it which we call the South—is prostrated, all its en terprises crippled, its pursuits disorganized, its labor destroyed, its agriculture Tendered inefficient aud unproductive, alt our perman ent investments iu the way of stocks and bonds rendered valueless—iu a word, coming out of such a struggle with the conviction which we must realize, iu reference to our selves, that we are indeed a poor people, thrown at a single leap from the highest liuncle of prosperity down to the most abjict aud humiliating circumstances of poverty and political impotent)'! These are circumstances, gentlemen, un der which we have been discharging the du ties assigned to us by our constituents. I refer to them, not for the purpose of Reviv ing in the breast of any one bitter remem brances ot tbe past, nor yet, for the pur pose of producing iu your hearts, cir in the minds of my countrymen anywhere, ah un manly whining and simpering over our situ ation, wffiile 1 feel it was the neeess&ry re sult of superiority of numbers and resources. But, thank God ! our manhood remains! (Applause.) I submit these facts for another purpose, It is to remind ourselves that, whilst we have thus been crippled in our resources, paralyzed in our energies, shrouded iu mourn ing aud sorrow, it is the duty of each of us, with courageous manhood, to look the fu ture in the face, aud to hope on and hope ever. Something is left. A kind Providence has cast our lot in the miilst of a land un parallcd in the richuess of its soil and re sources, and unsurpassed iu the material elements necessary for a great, prosperous, powerful and happy Slate. 3b fur as the de velopment of resources is concerned, Geor gia is yet in her infancy. Inexhaustible mineral wealth sleeps in the bosom of tier gigantic mountains ; and with the applica tion of enterprise and of energy', these rich materials will be exhumed, aud under the skill of science and of art, aud of industry and energy, they will be compelled to con tribute to the elevation of our people, to their enhancement iu prosperity, aud to their growth iu power. It is true our labor system has been en tirely deranged, disorganized, almost de stroyed ; and we are now to enter upon the experiment, whether or not, the means of lar bor which are left to us,the class of people to which we are to look iu the future as our la boring class, can be organized into efficient and trustworthy laborers. That may be done, or I hope it may be done if left to ourselves. If I could have the ear of tire entire people of the United States, and if I might be permitted, bumble though I he, to utter an Mlmonition, hot by way of threat, but for the purpose of animating them to the pursuit of a policy which would be wise, and salutary, and fraternal, and best .for the country, I would implore them that, so far a, providing for this branch of our popula tion is concerned, nnd their organization into a class of efficient and trustworthy la borer*, the Federal gov’t should just simply let us alone. \Ve understand the character of that class of people, their capacities, thejr instincts, and the causes which control their conduct. If we cuuuol succeed in making them trustworthy und efficient as laborers, I think it is not saying too much, when wo nflirm that the Federal government need not attempt it. I trust they will not, aud that we will have the poor privilege of being let alone, in the tulure, iu reference to this class I of our people. So far as we ore concerned, and so far as tbe relationship* we Hustuin to them are con cerned. we have dutie* to perform. lam a Georgian, aud apeak to Georgians, an hon orable, conscientious, high iniuded people, who are prepared lo discharge their dulica, und ready to read them horn surrounding circum*utrice*. 1 beg to suggest, and 1 would that I, could be heard by every citizen of inv beloved Mate, that of all thing* upon thl* autijrct, It I* mott unwise, aud uujih.l, aud unkind, fur the lorun r owner* o| i,laves lo | ou llvate toward* in, m a for Hug of di.liku or I uukludoi««.

GEORGIA, TUESDAY', NOVEMBER 14. 1865. them during all the period of the revolution, and most especially during the latter portion of it, should have been so quiet, so circurn tpect, so well behaved, ao subordinate. All over our State, women and children have been lelt alone iu their houses of abode, without one siugle, solitary male protector— the husbands, tbe sons and the brothers far away upon the tented field—and yet our women and children, thus unprotected, have been unmolested by the colored population, ami permitted to enjoy safety and security, aud as much ot the comforts of home, as was compatible with the coudiliou of the country. I say, therefore, that the emancipation of the negroes amongst us is not the work of their own doing. They behaved themselves well during the war,aud the shackles of slave ry being knocked off, it is not strange that we should see listlessness, lUleness, thritllessness exhibited by them, and iu some eases even iiisubordiuation aud a spirit ot mutiny—not more, however, than, uuder Hie circumstan ces, reasonable men might have expected. I speak this for a two fold purpose; first, to pay a just tribuleto that unloitunaie c:ass ot our people, and second, to remind our te’ves of the spirit which ought to animate us in our conduct towards them, and in main taining the relationship which must neces sarily exist between us in the future. Onr conduct should be kind, humane, salutary, magnanimous, just. Tbe result of this will be the production of a feeling of mutual confidence between tbe two races. The black race must feel that the white man is not hi 9 enemy—that he is just and magnanimous and that on the other hand will lieget conduct on the part of the Afri can race, so far as they are now capable of being operated upon by such influences, a feeling of trust and confidence and kindness, and a willingness to respond to tbe duties obligatory upon them, and thus enable both to move along harmoniously iu the prosecu tiou of enterprises, aud perhaps successfully iu tbe promotion ot mutual interests. Now, if we cultivate this feeling, (and any other feeling would uot comfort with our duties towards them,) and this feeling shall be embodied in a wise and well ad justed code of laws for tbe government of both classes, because laws that shall be en acted in reference to one class, cannot ap propriately be suited to tbe other class on ac count ot their color and luud imental diffei ence of race. I say if we shall adopt such a code of laws that shall give embodiment to these feelings ot justice,kiudness and humau- Sty, which 1 think it is our duly to cultivate to wards them, we may indulge a hope that we may organize them into a class of trust worthy laborers. Wc cannot succeed in do ing this unless our course with reference to that class of people shall be regulated by these high considerations of conduct. We may succeed, if vve are so animated—not only at home, upon our plantations, but in our legislative Rails. It we do not the experi ment will only prove to be a failure ; and I fear it will he a failure But let us make the experiment in good faith, and in propor tion as we succeed we shall be remunerated for the effort, aud iu proportion as wc shall fail let us inaugurate such a policy as will bring into our midst a sturdy, energetic class of laborers from other coun tries, so that our country shall uot be a howling and desolate waste,; o that our farms may be repaired, our fences rebuilt, anti our homesteads made comfort able, all owr our Suite we shall witness evidences ol prosperity and thrift. Gentlemen, these remarks have been sug gested by the occasion, without any inten tion of making a set speech, but simply as tbe utterance of my mind, prompted by lire ciiciunstnuces t?f the moment. 1 will not detain you longer. The resolu tion which provides for the adjournment of this convention this day, reserves a duty up on your presiding officer, w ithin six months hereafter, if it should become necessary, to rail you ‘ogether again. That resolution also contains a provision, that if from the resignation, disability, or death, your presid ing officer should not be able to perform this duty, it will devolve upon the chief exe cutive of the State. If not removed by death ! I confess to you,, gentlemen, when that clause wgs read iu the resolution, a thrill weut through my frame. Is it possible that in the opinion of more than three hundred intelligent, • experienced men ol Georgia, there is such a conviction of the probabilities of the death ot a healthy man within six mouths, that it should be provided for by a soletun act of tire convention? So it is, gen tlemen. It was W'ell put in. Two of our body have passed away. We shall never all meet again. Whether I shall be culled hence, or you, it is not at ail probable that we shall meet again. Gentlemen, in view of tb t thing, and in view of our surround ings, in view of the chastising scenes through which we haye passer) ; in yiew of the sor rows which haug around the hearthstones of almost every family within the borders of our beloved State, iu view of the hallowed memories of those that sleep unkaown upon the battle-field, let us go home, and culti vate among our fellow citizens feelings of kindness, eschewing everything like discord, heart burnings, aud bitter strife. We have beep diyided in other litr.e upon party issues. Great principles have divided us, and in tbe conduct of our political con tests we have been intolerant, vituperative, unforgiving, uncharitable. That we may avoid such feelings hereafter, let us return home, as if from attending the luneral of our i mother. Our old mother, thank God! is ! not dead, but she has been reduced to ex | tremity. We have been called together to | nurse around her bedside, aud to endeavor, iif possible, to reanimate‘and reinvigorate her | wasted body and now almost paralyzed ; limbs, aud lo drive back iuto ber heart the I vital blood, and bid it throb until tbe vital 1 current shall stream through its accustomed j courses, aud even until sbe shall bloom again lin health. (Sensation and applause.) . We have met here as friends; the expe rience ot the past bids us that we continue to be friends. When we return borne let U 9 distribute the sentiment among all classes of our neighbors of charity and love. Let us admonish them to love their country, and to obey the constitutions and laws of the land. In view of that certain, sad event which must sooner err later conte to us all, gentle men, he circumspect, and lei us walk thoughtfully upon the shoie of that vast ocean which we must sail so soon. God bless you gentlemen ! God bless our beloved State : and may prosperity and hap piness be tire boon which the kind Provi dence shall confer upon us, throughout all our borders. Y T ou are now adjourned tine die, unless It shall became necessarry to call you to gether again.

AN IMPORTANT CONTENTION. Incidents are constantly transpiring ic the Southern States indicating that the develop ment of our ag-icultural interests is, in the opiniou ol the people, of the utmost impor tance. The questions relating to the dispo sal ot the freeraeD all bear upou this as a means. The colored tnau will be a help or a hindrance, it may be, in the economical affairs of the Boutb. according to the treat ment he receives. A convention of the plan ters of Alabama is to be held in Montgomery on the 15th inslant, to devise measures for promoting the prospects of agriculture there. Iu view of this convention an address has been issued, whiclr gives some of the sound est advice we have yet seen offered on this subject. The address is not to the black men hut to the citizens of the State, aud not to the poor citizens but to tbe owners of lands and the employer of laborers. After noting tbe chauged relations of tbe races aud remarking on the necessity of falling iu with the new order of things, it says : You must furnish employment and wages to the black man, and teach him the art of earning an independent livelihood. * * * Nor can you, fellow-citizens, hold yourselves guiltless, if you remain inert You own the lands and the capital, and can give employ ment to the laborer. You owe it to society, to yourselves—yea, to the ignorant black mao, to make every exertion and every rea sonable sacrifice to save your beautiful and fertile country from desolation, and its in habitants from want and starvation. Your once cherished homes must Dot be aban doned iu despair, nor confided to adventurers who are strangers to your civilization, to yr>ur delightful rimate and its varied pro ductions. Judge not the freedmau too se verely. Remember that he is as a babe, and needs nurture and cultivation. It. in the madness of his joy he oversteps the bounds of propriety or be not reasonably provident, make a second, a third—nay, many efforts to lead him into the paths of usefulness.— Remeanbor that every one w’ho is preserved lo tbe noble work of production coutributes to the mass of collective wealth and diminishes the army of tbe consumers and dependents, if not of paupers. As the spring is rapidly approaching and arrangements should now be making for pitching tbe new crop, would it not be well for tiro planters of Georgia to bold a similar Convention for the great purposo of adopting some great policy acceptable to both laces, with reterence to the perplexing question of reliable labor. A Convention of the planters could do no harm and might do much good. A Floridian Arrested. —We see it an nounced in an Exchange that Major Gee, of Quitioy, Fla., has been arrested, conveyed to Wasbington city, aud, by order of the Secre tary nf War, committed to the Old Capital. The cunse of his arrest Is not stated The Major is by profession a physician, and a gentle mau of tbe highest respectability. He served with distinction as an officer iu the Confederate Army. The Clerk oe the House and the South ern Members. —A Wasbington dispatch of the 7th inst. says: CX The Clerk of the House, Mr. McPherson, will not call the names of any members from tbe Southern States: but motions will be of fered immediately after roll call giving seats to Col. Stokes and other representatives of known loyalty, who can take the oath, and whose States have repudiated the rebel war debt, as well as adopted the Constitutional Amendment. Caleb Cushing.— I Tbe Boston Daily Ad vertiser, to correct the many stories afloat in regard to the reasons for the Hon. Caleb Cushing’s visit to England, says he goes ns counsel for the Government, in connection with the claims arising out of the war. and other matters of a similar nature. Outrageous Claim. —lt is stated that the occupant of the house on Tenth street, in Washington, where President Lincoln breathed his last, has made a claim for dam ages done to his house and furniture on the night of the assassination. Relic hunters have made offers for llie furniture of the room, and the owner might realize enough thereby to buy auother and better house. The Russian Telegraph Expedition.—A month’s later news has been received from Col. Bulkley.
