Wales having, been retained by the individuals interested, and not by the Governor under that Resolution, I considered myself bound by res trictive terms of the law, to exclude him from the benefit of its provisions. If it were the purpose of the Legislature to place him on an equality with those gentlemen who were engaged by the State, and to relieve the individuals employing him from the payment of his fee, it is now in your power to carry out that intention. yrigadier-General John W. Rabun, of the Se cond Brigade of the Second Division, has resign ed his office. A copy of his letter of resignation is laid before you. I transmit to you copies of Resolutions passed by the Legislature of Connecticut, Vermont, New York, Kentucky, New Jersey, Indiana and Maine, relating to matters of general concern; and also Resolutions of the State of Sou'll Caro lina, on the subject of the controversy between this State and the State of Maine. Among the Resolutions communicated, you will find° one with a Preamble, from the State of Connecticut, whose object is to procure the passage of a law by Congress for the protection of the Manufac turing interest. The renewal of this policy should be resisted by the use of all constitution al means. It cannot be forgotten how obnoxious it was to one section of the Confederacy, nor with how much tenacity it was adhered to by another. In some of the States distinguished citizens were found, who were willing to throw off the glorious Union with all its benefit -, rath 'er than submit to its hardships, while in others there were prominent men who would see the Southern cities covered with grass, and require that the calamity be traced distinctly to the cause before they would consent to abandon it. The bitterness of feeling engendered by this excit ing measure, is a sufficient objection to its re adoption ; but there are other reasons having their foundation in principles of common right, wherefore it should not be revived, lie who cultivates the earth, or labors at any of ihe me chanic arts, should not pay tribute to him who manufactures the materials in which he is clad. A choice of occupation is open to all, and none has a right to select a trade after a due consid eration oT its comparative advantages, and then demand of the Government to contribution on the rest of the country to increase his profits. There is still a graver objection which no argu ment of convenience or expediency should be permitted to overcome. This Preamble and Re solution assert the constitution of Congress to eu act a law imposing a protective Tar.ff, without reference to the necessities of the Government. Concede this, and the Constitution creates no barrier against the exercise of absolute authority. m W ] i. depen< * 011 tlle ca P rice ail<l unrestrained will of the Legislature. The Constitution con fers no such power, and it cannot be assumed without awakening a feeling which those who arouse it will find it difficult to subdue. Ths State of Connecticut seeks the accomplishment of its object by obtaining the influence of the ex pressionof sentiments lavorabie to the measure by the Legislatures of the several States. This expression I confidently believe they cannot ob tain from Georgia. Dr. Cotting, the State Geologist, has contin ued his labors up to this time, though the appro priation for the payment of liis salary was ex hausted on the sixth day of July last. lie was informed by me that the failure of the Legislature at the last Session to make further appropriation for the support of the office, might be construed into an intention to discontinue it, after the con sumption of the balance of the fund, and that if he discharged the duties beyond the time at which the sum set apart for that special object should be expended, he must rely for compen sation on the estimate placed by the Legislature ■■ on the necessity and value of his services. If, in your opinion, the public interest requires the further prosecution of this survey, an appropria tion must be made to defray its expenses. I would recommend that payment be made for what lias been done. The Fourth Annua] Re port ot that Officer is now communicated, from which it will be seen that discoveries have been made in some counties valuable to the interests of agriculture. I recommend to you a revision of the law for the government of the Militia. From the want of a proper organization under the existing sys tem, it is impossible to bring a force, how ever small into the field, without great difficulty, when it is necessary to resort to a draft. Orders can not be executed but through Officers, and in counties in which a dralt was recently ordered to till a requisition under the authority of the General Government for a single Company, there was scarcely a Company to be found properly organized. Much delay was occasioned by this cause ; but alter the draft was completed, new embarrassments were thrown in the way by the unwarrantable interference of evil disposed per sons, who advised the men not to yield obedience to a call made by the authority of the laws. The exertion of so wicked an influence should be made the subject of the severe retribution which it merits. It is calculated to ensnare the inno cent, for he who ignorantly heeds the unfortu nate counsel, is subjected to a punishment from which it is impossible, in the rigor of military law, to escape. Cases may be imagined in which the safety of a whole community might be en dangered. ~ The October Report of the Bank of Ruckers ville is transmitted to you. The semi-annual Reports of the other Banks that have been, re ceived, are in this department, subject to the examination and order of the Genera] Assembly. 1 hree bills passed by the last Legislature and presented for my revision which were dissented to by me, and whose return to that body was prevented by its adjournment, are herewith com municated together with my objections. A copy of the report of the principal Keeper of the I enitentiary, recommending such amend ment* of the rules for the police of that institu tion as have been suggested by his reflection and experience, is placed before you. Great difficulty was experienced in the begin ning of the year, from the want of meterials to keep the convicts profitably employed. No ap propriation was made by the last Genera] As sembly to purchase them, and the Officers were compelled to rely, in a great measure, on the credit of the institution, which had become much impaired by the heavy amounts of unsettled de mands against i\ Advantageous contracts can not be made under such circumstances. The small appropriation of three thousand dollars made at the last session was drawn from the Treasury before the first Monday in January last, so that the institution was compelled to rely on its own resources for the present year. There is now on hand a large amount of good material for the purchase of which, new debt 6 to a consider able amount, were necessarily contracted ; but from the manufacture of which, the State may expect to realize a handsome profit. For the S eighteen hundred and thirty-eight and thir e, the sura of 25,000 dollars was vo this institution. All that is now asked is , not an appropriation ; and if the institu tion should be hereafter conducted with as much energy and wisdom as it has been during the present year, the State will be re-imbursed m a very short time. The enclosure around the lot on which the Executive Mansion is situated, and other neces sary improvements authorized by an Act of the last Session, have been delayed by the difficulty of procuring suitable materials. The out build ings have been erected. From the official returns made to this Depart ment, a most decided and unequivocal express ion of the popular will in favor of biennial sessions ot the General Assembly, has been given—the vote being thirty-seven thousand nine hundred and eleven for biennial, and five thousand one hundred and seventy- two for annual sessions— more than seven-eighths favorable to the former. The heavy expenses ol the annual session of so numerous a body, the abortive efforts heretofore made to reduce the number, and the constitu tional authority vested in the Executive to con vene the legislature on extraordinary occasions have, no doubt, concurred in creating this strong public sentiment in lavor of the measure. If the wishes of the people are permitted to exert the influence to which they are entitled in represen tative governments, they must be decisive of your action on this subject. Charles j. McDonald.

The Federal Union and the Central Bank. We were gravely reproved by the Fed eral Union of the 27th ult., for some ob servations upon the Central Bank which appeared in our paper week before last. In recom'merfding that the Legislature should take some order with that institu tion, that the credit of the State might he rescued from its present condition ; we be lieve we did indeed represent tire wishes of the sensible and honest portion of all par ties. The insinuation of the Federal Un ion, therefore, that our article was “ cap ped by one party, coated by another, and pantalooned by a’ third,” though by no means courteously expressed, is yet in some degree true. It is more especially true that wc represented in the article that call ed forth the ire of the Federal Union, the sentiments of the Whig party. It is known to all, that the State Rights party in the Legislalure vigorously opposed the Bill to extend the Charter of the Central Bank, and that it was carried through the Legislature by almost a strict party vote. “ We notice this production” (our arti cle) says the Federal Union, “to remind our readers, that the Editor of theiNews & Gazette is mistaken in supposing that the credit of the State lias been injured by the issues of the Central Bank. The Bank had borrowed by order of the Legislature, S3OO - for one year. When this debt foil due the means of payment had not been provi ded, and great uproar over the credit of the State ensued.” 111 other words, the credit of the State was not injured by the issues of the Bank, because it was as bad as it possibly could be before the Bank began to issue ! Mow came the credit of the State in this condi tion ? Why, because, owing a debt of $300,000 in New-Y'ork, the Hard-Money- Anti-Bank party then in power, instead of paying that debt, which, according to their own admissions and the showing of the h ederal Union, the State had ample means of doing, chose rather to suffer a protest, and to keep the means which should have been applied to that payment, for the pur pose of doing a brokerage and banking bu siness. But the Federal Union has misrepresent ed our words ; we did not say that the cred it of the State had been injured by the issues of the Bank, because we believe as the F. Union insinuates, that it had already reach ed its lowest ebb when it suffered its secu rities protested. Our words were, “ the credit of the State represented by the Bills of the Central Bank, has declined in pro portion as its issues increased.” We refer to the experience of all our readers if this is not the fact ? “Yet,” says the Federal Union, “the bills of the Bank pass currently at par in almost every part of the State.— At points where payments at the North or abroad, are the principal uses of money, they have in common with the bills of other interior Batiks suffered depreciation. But this depreciation does not increase with the progress of distribution.” In no part of the State so far as we can learn (and we have taken some trouble to inquire) do the Bills of the Central Bank pass readily ; in the whole of Eastern Georgia, from the Savan nah up to the very doors of the Bank, they arc at ten per cent discount, and at a great er depreciation than the bills of any other Bank (except of those confessedly broken) at the points where payments to the Nortli are made, “ In common with the bills of other interior Banks.” ! Why, we pre sume, that the Editor of the Federal Union will allow the Commercial Bank of Macon and the Columbus Insurance Bank to be as much or more in the interior, than the Cen tral Bank, yet both these command a premi um at the comrhercial points. The Geor gia Rail Road Batik at Athens, the Branch es of the State Bunk, the Ruekersville Bank, &c. all'in the interior, are at par in Augusta, while only the Bank of Rome, the Darien Dank, and the Monroe Rail Road, are at a lower discount than the Central money—the last very little below it. Now, let us see if our assertion is cor rect, which the Federal Union disputes, to wit: that the Bills of the Central Bank had depreciated in proportion as its issue in creased. Up to the passage of the law its Bills “ were in undoubted Credit,” because it bad not power to issue beyond the amount of specie and bills of other banks in its vaults; but when it was empowered to bank on nothing, and commenced issuing to the counties, its money began to depreciate. About the first of July, just before the is sues commenced, we find it quoted in Au gusta 5 to 6 per cent, discount, at this pre sent writing it is 10 per cent, under par in the same place. How then can the Feder al Union say the “depreciation does not increase with the progress of distribution.” “ That body” (the Legislature) proceeds the Federal Union : “ had power over only two funds : their own money now compos ing the capital of the Central Bank, and the money of our citizens, which could be drawn from them by taxation. The Legis lature were urged to go into the system of taxation, and a splendid array of words was strung together by a Committee, to enforce such a measure. It was obvious to the best informed, that the present wants of the Go vernment, and the debts which it was im portant should be promptly paid, could not be provided for by taxation under any form for the exaetion of money,which was known t°’ °ut citizens. Thes.e debts, and amongst them the whole expenses of the Legisla ture, must be otherwise provided for, or re main unpaid. The times were also inaus picious for the enactment of laws greatly increasing the taxes. The people who sent that Legislature, would not have submitted to the scheme of the Committee, if it had been enacted. Some counties migjit have sanctioned it; but so far was it from having the sanction of either party, that it would have been the height of folly to have at tempted it. The scheme was nullified. — Taxation was weighed in the “ balance,” and found wanting.” It was proposed by the State Rights por tion of the Legislature to appropriate “their own money’ referred to in the above ex tract to the payment of the State’s debts. The Hard-money majority in that body, re jected that honest and wise proposition, and preferred to keep that fund to bank upon !! As to the system of taxation, if we under stand it, it was not intended to increase the taxes of the people, but merely to equalize them. But supposing it had been intended to lay additional taxes, it would surely been more just and honorable to have paid the’ injured debtors of the State from the funds than in hand,and if necessary then to have resorted to taxation to support the Govern ment. For our part we believe that taxation is the only legitimate way in which a Gov ernment should he supported. An honest and intelligent people like that of Georgia will never complain of such taxation as would supply the moderate wants of such a Government as ours. We do not think it proper that any State, should go into competition in speculation with banks and brokers. The party heretofore in power have been tempted, by having a large un employed fund in their hands, to go into the banking business but from the wasteful mode in which those funds have been man aged, we judge that temptation will soon cease, and then for the taxation which the Van Buren party for the last seven years have been so anxiously avoiding and stav ing off. We have heard some curious hints of the way in which the States’ pro perty has been managed and we will take this opportunity to ask the Federal Union, as he speaks like one having authority, if the State stocks in certain banks have not in one or two instances been sold and paid for in the depreciated bills of the Central Bank ? that is ten per cent below their market'value. “The times were inauspi cious” indeed for the Van Buren party to lay a tax on the people ! A great election was coming on.—They saw from the signs of the times, that the people were deter mined to turn out the money changers from Ihe temple, and with their usual fear of re sponsibility, they dreaded by any possibil ity to add any thing to the mass of opinion which was even then weighing them down. The thing might be unpopular, and they dreaded unpopularity more than financial dishonor. “ The Bank, ’ says the Federal Union, “ has, moreover, loaned to the people, the sum of $750,000 on on a credit of five years, and we kmS not what .111 ms on hills of exchange, to provide for the dav w hen resumption of specie patients may he called for.” Is it not a little strange that the Bank should not be aide to pay $300,000, and yet be able to loan $750,000. As to those bills of exchange—here leaks out a system of favoritism, in w doubtless, the Bank has been., engaged. They were obliged to lend money on good notes, by whomsoever offered, but these “ bills of exchange” could be granted ac cording to its officer’s pleasures; if they chose, only to their very particular friends and cronies. We hope the “ bill of exchange” system will be looked into, for thereby, we opine, hangs a tale. “ And now that this distribution approa ches a close, and the day, the distributive share of Old Wilkes is to be paid to her people, is almost present, we learn from one who knows, that the citizens of that county, without regard to party, will be very glad to obtain their part of this cal 11111- niated paper.” “ One who knows,” told the Editor of the Federal Union, the truth. But lie might know it without the trouble of inquiring from “one who knows.” In these hard times, those who are in debt arc glad to ob tain money even at a depreciation often per cent. But that is no argument to prove, the goodness of the money. The Federal Union is, doubtless, aware that a great in ducement to taking the money, is the long time given for payment; and the know ledge that it must either be enhanced in va lue, or suffer a farther depreciation. If the first happens, the borrower will be at least in no worse situation than at present. But most borrowers expect a farther deprecia tion, and will hasten to get rid of the bills at the present rate of discount. In that case, they, of course, will profit by<fispo’sing of their bills at the present value, in the mo ney market; and buying them again, to pay their debt to the Bank, when their va lue is even less than at present. But we cannot pursue the champion of the Central Bank farther, in his tortuous sophistries. His insinuation that prejudice and folly prevent the Central Bank hills from being taken in payment, is rediculous. We have never heard of prejudice so obsti* nate, nor of folly so egregious as to prevent a good bill from being taken in payment. Ignorance might do it, but we every day see men who can be charged neither with prejudice, folly, or ignorance, refusing the bills of the Central Bank. We again reite rate our hope, that the present Legislature will take some measure to redeem the State from this disgraceful scheme of banking 011 a credit basis. Since the foregoing was in type, we have received the Governor s Message. Wo have no time to comment upon his remarks as to the Central Bank, except to say, that we see no reason in them to change any opinion we have expressed above. OiT” For the sake of variety, after the te dious political discussions in which we have been engaged, we present our rea ders with an interesting tale, from “ Black wood’s Magazine.” We commend the “XVag Family” to the attention of those who are fond of things of this sort. “ A VULGAR WOMAN,” says the Richmond Star, “ is one who stays at home, and takes care of her chi 1- dreij —the race is nearly extinct.” The Boston Transcript,upon this text,.discourse!!) atsbme length, and tells some truth’s which will bear repetition. Hear him : Pity ’tis, ’tis true. If a woman who stays at hortie and takes care of her children is vulgar, then commend us to a “ vulgar wo man.” A woman who neglects her house hold affairs, and goes gadding abroad, to see and to he seen, instead of doing her duty at home, is one of those persons in society who should not meet with the countenance of the public. There are domestic duties which every mother of a family is bound to perform, and she who neglects those duties is unworthy to be at the head of a family. The duties of a wile and mother are plain and obvious. The wife should be literally the head of the in-door affairs of a house. She should superintend the whole domestic machinery of house-keeping; not by proxy but in person. She should know, from per sonal observation, that every tiling is done “ decently and in order ;” that every thing is in its proper place. She should be up be times in the morning ; she should not he a fraid of the kitchen, hut should he familiar with the whole management of it. She should not sit down and hold her hands, or call a servant to hold them for her. She should not ring the bell every five min uite during the day for the purpose of call ing a second servant to wait upon her. She should not be afraid to wait upon herself upon any and all occasions. She should not be afraid to take a needle in her hands, and use it too. From the South. Recorder, EO K UIA JLEGI * I,IT IKE.

RARE SPECIMEN OF GENEROSITY. A late 1-reach Journal tells us that late ly some children were playing in the bot tom of an old dried-up well, at a small vil lage in the department of the Rhone.— They amused themselves by stirring the rubbish at the bottom, and discovered a large iron chest, completely eaten up with rust. One of them was imrhediatel v de spatched in search of a strong cord, and the chest was borne in triumph to the owner of the well. On being forced open it was found to contain an immense heap of gold coins of the three reigns which preceded the revolution of 1879, and also several bun dles of family papers. The proprietor thanked the children for their discovery, hut added that he should apply to their pa rents for some indemnification for the cord, which they had materially damaged in their efforts to draw up the iron chest. The Methodists in Canada now consist of nearly one hundred thousand souls. They have sprung up in a few years from very small beginnings, and under many disadvantages. “It is not many years, says the Quebec Gazette, since the only Method ist preacherin Lower Canada, was incarce rated several months tn the Quebec Jail, for libel ; and in Upper Canada there were only a few wandering Missionaries. Thev have now numerous substantial churches’; a college of their own, and many able and respectable preachers. “ I have been troubled with weak eves for more than ten years,” said Dr. 8., “ and I am not able to tell the cause.” “ Can’t you ?” said Miss F. “ I can.” “ What is it ?” “ Because they arc in a weak spot,” re plied Miss F.
