Thi. been Ukaa, wo villlay I ie who 0 h. or* <*v j arrangement appeared In meat the approbation renders. of the delegates from the cumties nsiued, but The 18th Section of the lat Article of the present Constitution, disqualifies every person from serving as * Senator or Representative, who shell be convicted of “hiving given or offend* any bribe or treat, or eauvnaeed for such election," and disqualifies lor one year thereafter, from holding e seat in the Legisla ture, any unsuccessful candidate, who shall have offered any tribe or treat or canvassed to secure an election. The 19th Section further requires all mem bers eJeot to swear that they have not obtained their election by 41 bribery, treats or canvass ing," before taking their seats. Iostoad of these two sections, the revision Committee have recommended the following: “Every Senator and Representative, before taking bis seat, shall taka an oath or affirma tion to support the Constitution of the Confed erate States and of this State; and also, that l.e hath not practiced any unlawful means, either directly or indirectly, to prscure his election." Wa approva of this change. We are deeply sensible of the eorruption and demoralise ion of treating and canvassing for votes, as prac ticed by many candidates, and should rejoice if it could be effectually prevented in someway; hut Lha practice is not half so demoralising as for a man to do these things while a candidate, „nd then go to Milledgeville and swear on the Holy Evangelist of Almighty Ood, that he has done no such thing. This practioe must be cor rested by a wholesome public opinion, or it never will be done. If the people are sufficient ly demoralised to vote for any man who will be guilty such ofundignified or dishonorable means to procuring on election, there will always be found men who will take such places at their hand by such means, and then swear they have not done so. This evil can ouly be cor rected by the people-the source, not only of all power, but likewiee of all virtue. If the fountain be impure, the stream will be also.— If we want men to go to the Legislature who will not swear falsely, we must vote for men who are sufficiently honest and honorable to be abovo such low conduct. If we send good men to Milledgeville, Ihore is no need of requiring an oath that they have not abtained their elec tion by improper means. If we send bad men there, no oaths or Constitutional obligations will bind them. Public virtue aloue can put down tbis vice, wbicb experience baa abundantly shown. Another provision recommended by the Committee is as follows: The Legislature “may alter the boundaries of counties and establish new counties; but every bill to establish a new county shall be passed by at least two thirds ■if the members present in both branches of the General Assembly." We heartily endorse this amendmeht. The facility with which counties havo been multi plied, for the last ten or fifteen years, needs to bn checked. It has become a great nuisance. It provides that the Governor may veto any part of an appopriation bill, without rejecting the whole bill—another wise provision. It forbids tho Legislature from granting cor porate powers or privileges to any private com pany; prohibits the changing of names, legit imating children, or establishing bridges or ferries; but provides that these thiugs shall bn done by the Courts, in a manner t> bn pre scribed by law. Banks, insurance, railroad, canal, plank road, and telegraph companies, are exceptions to this rule. It prohibits the Legislature from authorizing bank suspensions, except by a two-third vote of both branches. The Legislature is prohibited from loaning the bonds or money of the State, or pledging its credit or resources for the encouragement of any private enterprire, except by a two-thirds vote of both Houses. Tho African Slave Trade is prohibited for ever; and lha Legislature is authorized to pro hibit the introduction of slaves from any State except that immigrants shall be allowed to bring their slaves with them. It provides that the Judges of the Superior Courts shall be appointed by the Governor, by und with the advice and cocsentof tho Senate, for the period of six yoars, instead of being elected by the people. The Solieitor Geueral and the Attorney General for the State (a new officer provided for) shall be elected by tie people, and hold their offices for four years. It provides that tbo Constitution shall not Its amended except by a convention of the peo ple called for that purpose. In oar next issue we hope to be able to tell our readers what bas been the action of the Con vention on the Committee's report. biipsriiiteudeut of Public Printing. We notice that George E. W. Nelson, Esq., at present the book-keeper and accountant in the office of the Augusta “Constitutionalist," has been appointed Superintendentof Public Print ing by President Davis. Mr. Nelson is a na tive of South Carolina, where ho learned the printing business. He hae resided in Alabama, Mississippi and Washington City, and was foreman of the “Constitutionalist" office for many ytars. We know Capt. Nelson well, end are very sure that e better selection for the important post could not have been made. California. There are iatiaatioae of Secession in Cali fornia. The Chairman of tke State Commutes of one of the political partite in the State, has railed e meeting of the Committee to consider the perilou# condition of Use country. Re saji: •I If a peaceable dissolution cornea, why should. Califs—la remain with the.Jiin.SUlMA.iLs it wee voted down On Thursday morning, Mr. Tidwell, of Fay ette, moved to reconsider so much of the jour nal of yesterday as relates to the action of the Convention in adopting the majority report of the Committee on Senatorial Districts. The Chair stated that, in bis opinion, a re consideration of tbis part of his journal might influence the whole arrangements of the Sen atorial District#. Mr. Tidwell supported his motion for recon sideration, wishing to have his minority report adopted as a portion of the plan. Some of the Districts in the upper part of the State did not exactly suit the delegates of those counties. Mr. Glenn hoped the motion would prevail. Under the plan adopted yesterday, the coun ties of Fulton and Cobb were both in one Dis trict, and Marietta and Atlanta waged a sort of “ irrepressible conflict" with each other, and he feared, unless those counties were put into different Districts the entire vote of each coun ty would be given against ratification. Judge Rice, of Cobb, entertained similar views as those expressed by Mr. Glenn, and favored a reconsideration. Mr. Singleton hoped that the motion wculd not prevail. He did not like exactly his own district, but be believed if the subject'were once opened again, the Convention might sit for a year, and appoint a Committee every day, and still there would nlways be some to ob ject. The motion to reconsider was voted down. Thus, it sppears that we are not to have our Districts arranged os we would like. We hope, however, that Mr. Glenn’s fears will not be re alized. If the question bf submitted to the people, we advise them to adopt it, whether it suits us or not. If the arrangement should not be agreeable, or not work well, we can get the Legislature to make the necessary chang es. By all means, let us adopt the principles, the plan of this much needed reform, and look to the arrangement of unimportant details hereafter. Texas. By reference to a telegraphic dispatch from New Orleans, which we publish to-day, it will be seeu that Sam Houston has been summarily ejected from the office of Governor on account of his refusal to take au oath to support the Government of the Confederate States, and to carry out the acts of the State Convention.— This was not unexpected to us. Old Sam Hous ton is the most unscrupulously ambitious man weaver knew. He was willing for Texas to secede, but was opposed to her uniting with the Confederate States. Ifo wants Texas to set up on her own hook, and to place him at the head of affairs. Henro he haa steadily used every effort to carry out his disorganising and sel fifth schemes. On the 6th of this month, he transmitted to the Convention a communication, denying its right to do anything further than pass tbeordi- nauce of secession, and submit it to the people. He Intimated that the Convention did not rep resent the will of the people; and announced that he would recommend to the Legislature, (which was to assemble on the 18th instant,) such measures of policy as he thought proper. It was on account of tbis letter of his, in which he intended to prorogue the sovereign Conven tion of the State, before they consummated a union with our government, by sending dele gates to the Montgomery Congress, that the Convention passed an ordinance requiring all State oTcers to take an oath of allegiance to tho Confederate States, and to carry out, in good faith, the acts of the Couvention. Hous ton refused to take it, and was very properly removed from the office. He had actually gone so far as to commence raising troops and ap pointing officers without authority, for the pur- ]>ose of setting up the State of Texas as an inde pendent republic. We think the Convention hni acted wisely. The Capitol. The Columbus Enquirer is urging the claims of that city to having the Capitol of the Con federate States looated there. He says it should not be located in the interior of any one State, but on or near the line of two States, as was Washington; and that it it at the head of navigation on the Chaltahooche, at the mouth of which must be the principal naval station of the government, Ac., Ac.

Iu a preamble and resolutions, they express the opinion that a fair i/idioation of public opinion was Dot obtainad in the late cledion in that Bute, wherein they voted against the as sembling of a Convention Kf a very small ma jority—a little over 600. This is attributed to the fset that delusive informatioa as to what the Peace dongress at Washington was doing, was circulated all over the State, just at th# time of holding the election ; and that its fi Dal propositions, an unjust and dishonorable to the South, had not been made public; neither hud Old Abe’s Inaugural been promulgated.— The Convention expressed the belief that the u honor and the vital interests of North Caroli nu require her immediate connectiou with the Government of the Confederate States.” They believe the proposition to hold a Con vention of the border States, or to establish a Middle Confederacy,as “calculated to distract public attention injuriously, and to separate the interests of the Slaveholding 8tetes;" that it is, “in the nature of things, impracticable and unnatural"—" a delusion and a sham.' They call for a Convention to be held at Goldsboro' yesterday and to-day, “ for the pur pose of mutual consultation, and to adopt such measures as will secure the end proposed. We will keep our readers posted on this matter. R I RANDAL. ■ G«.

The ships Alma and Lookout have been chartered to take breadstuff* to England. An interesting trial has just terminated.— Augustin Har reset by, a melter and refiner the Uuited States Mint, at 8an Francisco, was charged with a deficit of $lo2,000. was for the recovery of $10,000 on hi* official bond. The main point in the defense was, that the machinery was wholly inadequate to the service, rendering great wastage by manipula tion unavoidable. lie was acquitted by the jury. TheGovernnienthsdanothercaeeagaiust him, in which it sought to recover the whole of the alleged deficit of $152,000, but it de pended upon the success of the esse just tried; •o he stands acquitted. The District Attorney has given notice of au appeal to the Supreme Court. Both houses of tbo Legislature have ogrrel to go into a joint conveutiou on the 9th for the election of a United States Senator. No caucus nominations will previously be made by any party. Mr. McDougall’s partial nomination by the Douglas democrats is being still ad hered to. The general tenor of advices from Sacra mento maintains the election of either Danvor or McDougall is hardly possible, and that if any election takes place the successful candi date must be some new man not yet prominent as an aspirant. No news of the steamer Uncle Sam. now eleven days overdue, with New York mails of February 1st. The sueceding steamer, with New York mails of February 11, is now due, and if she arrives before to morrow night, bringing tidings of the Uncle Bam, the news will be t legrspbed to Carson Valley to overtake the eastern bound pony express. The steamer Oregon, from the northern coast, arrived bore on the 4th instant, with Victoria dates to tbe 23d ot February, and Oregon dates to the 1st of March. The steamer brings two companies of United States troops, among whom some acts of in subordination occurred before leaving Port land. One private was severely injured in tbe head by the Lieutenant in command. A num ber of the soldiers were gagged and handcuffed. Accounts from the Nes Perce mines are en couraging. The American farms on San Juan Island are flourishing, and farmers cheerfully pay taxes to the Sheriff and Whitcomb Company. The civil jurisdiction heretofore exercised on the Island by Washington Territory will be discontinued, and Captain Pickett’s authority will be most absolute. At Astoria it is reported that a berk, sup posed to be the Louisa, had come ashore near Tilainock, and had capsized. The colonies of Vancouver and British Co lumbia will be represented at the World’s Fair in 1&G2. The British bark True Briton with a cargo valued at $200,000, from London to Victoria, sustained serious damage off Cape Horn and put into FsikUnd Islands, where her cargo will be sold to pay expenses. Harrison White, proprietor of the Fort Hone sawmill, has been murdered by Indians. The murderer of Price has been captured. The mines on tbe Similksmeen are reported better than before. Our Relations with Georgia. The a'nit returned by the Police authoriliet, and the New York vcttelt relented by the Govern ment of Georgia. The whole of (he arms seised by Fonobe Kennedy on board tbe Monticollo, en route to Savannah, have at lo igth been restored by that official. Tbe following is a copy of a let ter sent by the owners of tho Martha J.

The fol lowing extract, which comprises the principal portion of the letter, does not reflect very creditably upon the portiea to the Star of the West expedition in any point of view : On the iid and 4th of January ultimo, in ply to the interrogatories from Judge Long- street, of South Carolina, a devoted Chris tian sod a man of peace, I telegraphed to' him no reinforcements had been ordered lo Fort Sumter, and, in my opinion, none would be sent if the authorities of that State would re frain from an attack on the fort. Judge Long street thereupon addressed a written appeal lo the Governor and those officially associated with him, basing his argument on Ibis infor mation, to withhold the first blow. It had its effect; an attack was not made. On the morn ing of the 7th, the Constitution newspaper contained a telegraphic dispatch from New York that the Star of the West had sailed fro that port with 250 soldiers on board, bound to Fort Sumter. This was the very first intimation I had re ceived from any quarter that additional troops had been ordered or sent.“This information to me was not 44 official ;" it was a fact conveyed with electric speed to every part of the Con federacy, known to be true by every well in formed man in tbe city of Washington as soon as known by roe. While engaged iu wriliug my resignation iu the presence of Judge Black, then Secretary of State, a dispatch was reoeived from Judge Longsireet, making inquiry as to the sailing of the Star of the West with additional troops. Honor, truth, justice to myself and Judge Loogstreet re quired of me the reply I made, that the Star of the West had sailed with reinforcements, and ought theo to be in Charleston. 1 make this statement for tbe reader, not for Mr. Holt; because Mr. Holt knew when he asserted that I, “ while yet a member of the Cabinet, disclosed to those in open rebellion againtt the United StaUt information which 1 had derived fiotu my official position, and hich 1 held under the seals of a confidence that, from the beginning of our history as a nation, had not been violated," he uttered n vile falsehood aud calumny. But Mr. Holt inserts in his communication my letter of resignation and the President’s reply—tbe very point in issue in which was that this expedition of the Star of the West was fitted out without my kuowledge, io vio» lation of an express understanding. But when tbe President admitted, in his reply, that he expected my resignation when his decision was mado—and as I did not resign, of course I did not understand him as he i bought he had expressed himself—and as I well kuew the acting Secretary of War, in his eagerness to crush out those win in he considered “in open rebellion," was ready lo seize upon any loose expression of tbe President to justify himself in adopting any suggestion of General Scott which he supposed would effect that end, I did not choose to push a controversy with the President involving a question of veracity.— But if Mr. Holt inteuds to be understood, by quoting tbis correspondence, that this order, which the President claims to have made, was the “official" information held by me under the seals of confideuce, and whioh 1 communi* cated, I prooounct him a dishonorable aud un qualified falsifier. All my correspondence with the Preside.it has never been published, and I append a copy of that portion which has uot yet been printed, aDd hope you will insert it in your paper as a part of this letter. On Wednesday, 2d of January, tbe question of sending reinforcements to Fort Sumter was formally discussed in Cabinet. The letters of Major Anderson were read and as the infer ences drawn from them were different by the several members, the President decided (bat a special messenger should be sent lo Maj. An derson to learn hie true condition, and suggest ed to Mr. Holt several interrogatories to be propounded to him. This conclusion was resched, as admitted by every member of the Cabinet. As soon as this question was d.j posed of Ihs reply of tbs South Carolina Com missioners was taken up, read, and rstnrnsd After that the conversation was desultory, and if the President used the expression that “re inforcemeutri must now be sent" it is certain that neither Judge Black, Gov. Thomas, or myself beard the remark. These ere the only two members of tbe Cab - inet with whom I have had a special eoaver- sation ou this particular subject. U ia certain, however, the then acting Secretary of War, moved upon by Qea. Scott, did inaugurate this eeeret expedition of tho Star of tho West, with the belief that he oould throw twe bun dred and fifty soldiers into Fort Sumter by stealth. It is also certein tbet tbe President ordered the tending of the troops to be errest- ed, end entrneted tbe cerrying out of this countermand to Mr. Ifolt. It Is also certain this order of (he President wss made in full time to havo arrested the expedition if all par ties had promptly discharged their duty. It Is certain that it did eo happen that (he Star of the West set seil without receiving the erder of countermand, and H is certain that after her return to New York U was evident to ell that the eendiog of her wes a great mieteke. I deal with thwlhcte, not the reasoning, involv ed fa the transtcrioa.
