Georgia Legialature.
In tho House, on Saturday, the Com
mittee to whom was referred the bill for
the pardon of John Black, sentenced to
heath for murder, reported that the Leg
islature had tho power to commute tho
punishment to perpetual imprisonment.
The bill was read the third time.
The clerk read the evidence in tho case,
and a petition from a portion of the citi
zens of Habersham county, to commute
his punishment on the ground that the
offence was manslaughter and not mur
der. Also a petition from a portion of
the citizens of said county against com
muting. The petition represents that
Black hail been in the Penitentiary for an
attempt to murder, and was generally
considered a bad eiiaracter. He bad shot
a little girl in the eye, and for this act
was put in the penitentiary for twoyears;
within a month after his release lie com

In tho Senate, a bill for the reduction of
that body to 40 members, and the House
to one member from each county, lias
been under discussion and was finally re
ferred to a committee of five to report

An act requiring Annual Sessions has
passed both branches, and will doubtless
receive the sanction of the Governor.
The House spent Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday upou the discussion of tho
Bank bill. The bill was tinallly recont
uiit'ed, as no harmony of action could be
I ..d upon it. Tho debate was quite an
interesting one. A resolution was intro

The Mormon Rebellion.
Wo publish in another column, to-day,
the defiant proclamation of Brigham
Noting, by which it will be seen that tho
old sinner is determined to resist, to the
“bloody end,” any interference on tho
part of the United States, with tho inter
nal affairs of that Territory. From this
it will bp seen that troublo may bo ox
pected from him, and perhaps there will
bo much effusion of blood on both sides
beforo the matter is finally settled. Tho
people of Utah are composed principally
of fanatics and religious bigots, gathered
from all quarters of the civilized globe,
aud at the bidding of their “prophet”
they will kindle their own funeral pyre
betore they will submit to bo ruled over
by any one else, -or to lay down thoir
arms though vanquished in every con
test. It only remains, then, for the Gov
ernment to institute such measures as
will speedily bring the matter to an is
sue, aud, if need bo, employ all the power
of the Government to effect it, though, in
order to do so, it may bo necessary to
blot out the whole Mormon race.
“Show Your Ticket.”
The Now York Court of Appeals hits
just rendered a decision in relation to the
right of requiring passengers to show
tickets. A passenger who was put oil’
from a train on the Erio Hail Hoad, for
refusing to show, his ticket to the con
ductor, brought a suit against the com
pany. The conductor had once been
shown the ticket, and on asking to see it
the second time was assured by another
passenger that the plaintiff hud paid his
fare. But the plaintiff persisting in refu
sing to show his ticket, was ejected from
the car. The court decided in favor of
the company very distinctly, and on sev
eral different issues, charging that the
company had the right to make all need
ful regulations for their own convenience
and the comfort of the passengers, and
among these is the right of kuowing con
tinually who are entitled to scats ; the
court to be judge of the lawfulness of the
regulation as to how often tickets are to
be Bhown, and a jury not to decide
whether an unreasonable frequency is
required or not.

PROCLAMATION OK BRIGHAM YOUNG!
We publish below tho proclamation of
Brigham Young, before referred to briefly
in a telegraphic dispatch. Accompany

through the commander of the “Nauvoo
Legion,” to Col. Alexander, when he had
arrived within thirty miles of Fort Bridg
es, which place is occupied by Mormon
troops:
Govbiinoh'h Office, U. TANARUS., 1
Gruat Salt Lake City, Sept. 29, ’57. /
To the Officers Commandin'/ the Forces now
Invading Utah Territory :
By reference to the act of Con
gress passed September 9, 1850, organiz
ing the Territory of Utah, you will find
the following:
Sue. 2. And bo it further enacted, that
the executive power and authority in and
over said Territory of Utah shall be vest
ed in a Governor, who shall hold his office
for four years, and until his successor
shall be appointed and qualified, unless
sooner removed by the President of the
United States. The Governor shall re
side within said Territory, shall be com
mander-in-chief of the militia thereof,
&c., &c.
I am still the Governor and Superin
tendent of Indian-Affairs for the Territo
ty, no successor having been appointed
and qualified, ns provided by law, nor
have 1 been removed by the President of
the United States. By virtue of the au
thority thus vested in me, I have issued
and forwarded to you a copy of my pro
clamation, forbidding the entrance of
armed forces into tho Territory. This
you liavo disregarded. I now further di
rect that you retire forthwith from the
Territory, by the same route you entered.
Should you deem this impracticable, and
prefer to remain until spring in the vicin
ity of your present encampment —Black
Fork, on Green river—you can do so in
pence, and unmolested, on condition that
you deposit your arras uud ammunition
with Lewis Robinson, Quartermaster Gen
eral of the Territory, and leave in tho
spring as soon as the condition of the
roads will permit you to march ; and
should you fall short of provisions, they
can bo furnished you upon proper appli
cation therefor.
Gen. D. H. Wells will forward this and
reccivo any communication you may have
to make. Very respectfully,
Brigham Young,
Governor and Sup’t of Indian Affairs.
The following is the proclamation re
ferred to by Brigham Y r oung:
PROCLAMATION BY TIIE OOVERNOIt.
Citizens of Utah —We are invaded by
a hostile force who are evidently assailing
us to ncccomplish our overthrow and de
struction. For the last twenty-five years
we have trusted officials of the govern
mant. from constables and justices to
judges, Governors and Presidents, only to
be scorned, held iu derision, insulted and
betrayed. Our bouses have been plun
dered and then burned, our fields laid
waste, our principal men butchered while
under the pledged faith of the govern
ment for their safety, and our families
driven from their homes to find that shel
ter in the barren wilderness and that pro
tection among hostile savages which were
denied them in the boasted abodes of
Christianity and civilization.
The Constitution of our common coun
try guarantees unto us nil that we do now
or have ever claimed, if the constitu
tional rights which pertain unto us as
American citizens wero extended to Utah
according to the spirit arid meaning there
of, and fairly and impartially administer
ed, it is all that we could ask all that
we have ever asked.
Our opponents have availed themselves
of prejudice existing against us, because
of our religious faith, to send out a form
idable host to accomplish our destruction.
Wo have had no privilege nor opportunity
of defending ourselves from the false,
foul and unjust aspersious against us be
forothe nation. The government has not
condescended to cause an investigating
committee or other person to be sent to
inquire into and ascertain the truth, as is
customary in such cases. Wc know those
aspersions to be false ; but that, avails us
nothing. We are condemned unheard,
and forced to an issue with an armed
mercenary ntob, which has been sent
against us at the instigation of anony
mous letter writers, ashamed to father the
base, slanderous falsehoods which they
have given to the public—of corrupt offi
cials, who have brought false accusations
against us to screen themselves in their
own infamy, and of hireling priests and
howling editors, who prostitute the truth
for filthy lucre’s sake.
The issue which has thus been forced
upon us compels us to resort to the great
first law of self preservation, and stand
in our own defence—a right guaranteed
unto us by tho genius of the institution
of our country, aud upon which tho gov
ernment is based. Our duty to ourselves
and to our families requires us not to
tamely submit to bo driven and slain
without an attempt to preserve ourselves.
Our duty to our country, our holy relig
ion, our God, to freedom and liberty, re
quires that we should not quietly stand
still and see those fetters forging
around us which are calculated to enslave
and bring us in subjection to an unlawful
military dospotism, such ns enn only
emanate, in a country of constitutional
law. from usurpation, tyranny and op
pression.
Therefore, I, Brigham Voting, Governor
aud Superintendent of Indian Affairs for
the Territory of Utah, in the numu of the
people of the United States, in tho Terri
tory of Utah, forbid,
First—all armed forces of every des
cription from coming into this Territory,
under any pretence whntevcr.
Second—that all forces in said Territory
hold themselves in readiness to march at
a moment’s notico to repel any aud all
such evasion.
Third—Martial law is hereby declared
to exist in this Territory from and after
the publication of this proclamation, and
no person shall be allowed to pass or re
pass into or through or from this Territo
ry without a permit f >m the proper offi
cer.
Given under my hand and seal, at Great
Salt Lake City, Territory of Utah, this
fifteenth day of September, A. D. eighteen
hundred and fifty seven, and of the inde
pendence of the United States of America
the eighty second. Bkiqham Youno.
The following is Col. Alexander's reply
to Brigham Young:
H EAPQl T AKTKKS IOtH Rkg’T INFANTRY, 1
Camp Winfield, on Ham’s Fork, [•
October 2,1857. J
Brioham Yopno, Esq.,
Governor of Utah Territory :
Sir —l have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt of yeur communication of
Sept. 29, 1857, with two copies of a pro
clamation and one of the laws of Utah,
and have given it attentive consideration.
I am at present the senior and commanding
officer of the troops of the United States
at this point, and I will submit your letter
to the General commanding, as soon as he
arrives here.
In the meantime, I have only to say
that these troops are here by the order of
the President of tho United States, and
their further movements and operations
will depend entirely upon orders issued
by competent military authority.
Very respectfully,
E. B. ALEXANDER.
Great Loss of Life.
Dispatches from Cincinnati, state that
sixteen coal boats were sunk last Thurs
day near Cairo, during the prevalence of
a tornado, and about one hundred lives
were lost. The boats, it is reported, con
tained three hundred thousand bushels of
coal.
On Saturday last, at Parkersburg, the
steamboat Rainbow was burnt. So soon
did the flames extend to all parts of the
boat, that between fifty and seventy lives
were lost.
Important from Kansas.
Kansas advices received at St. Louis
state that the constitution adopted by
tho Constitutional Convention was by a
vote of about 28 in favor of it to about a
dozen against it. The whole number of
delegates to the Convention are sixty,
consequently tho constitution was adop
ted by a minority of tho convention. The
majority and minority reports of the
committee on a schedule were merged
into one schelulc. It provides for an
election on the 21st of December, to rati
fy or reject tho constitution, the voting
to be by ballot, and the votes cast to bo
endorsed “Constitution with slavery”
and “Constitution without slavery,” also
for an election to be held on tho first
Monday in January next, for the elec
tion of State and Congressional tickets.
The Lawrence correspondent of the Dem
ocrat asserts that no free State man will
vote on the 21st of December.
The following is from tho majority
schedule:
Sec. 11. Before this Constitution shall
be sent to Congees for admission into
the Union as a State, it shall be submit
ted to all the white male inhabitants of
this Territory for approval or disap
proval, as follows : The president of this
convention shall, by proclamation, de
clare that on the 21st day of December,
1857, at the different election precincts
now established by law, or which may be
established as herein provided, in the
Territory of Kansas, an election shall be
held, over which shall preside three
judges, or a majority of three, to be ap
pointed as follows : The president of this
convention shall appoint threo commis
sioners in each county in the Territory,
whose duty it shall be to appoint three
judges of election in the several precincts
of their respective counties, at which
election the constitution framed by this
convention shall be submitted to all the
white male inhabitauts of the Territory
of Kansas in the said Territory upon that
day, and over the age of twenty-one
years, for ratification or rejection, in the
following manner and form :
The voting shall be by ballot. The
judges of said election shall cause to be
kept two poll books by two clerks, by
them appointed. The ballots cast at said
election shall be endorsed “constitution
with slavery,” and “constitution with
no slavery.” One of said poll books
shall be returned within eight days to
the president of this convention, and the
other shall be retained by the judges of
election and kept open for inspection.
The president, with two or more mem
bers of this convention, shall examine
said poll books, and if it shall appear
upon said examination that a majority of
the legal votes cast at said election be in
favor of the constitution with slavery he
shall immediately have the same trans
mitted to the Congress of the United
States as hereinafter provided. But if,
upon such examination of said poll
books, it shall appear that a majority of
the legal votes cast at said election be in
favor of tho “constitution with no slave
ry,” then the article providing l'or slave
ry shall bo stricken from tho constitu
tion by the president of this convention,
and no slavery shall exist in the State of
Kansas, except that the right of property
in slaves now iu this Territory shall in
no manner be interfered with, and shall
have transmitted the constitution so rati
fied to the Congress of the United States,
as hereinbefore provided. In case of the
failure of the president of this conven
tion to perform the duties, by reason of
death, resignation, or otherwise, the same
duties shall devolve upon the president
pro tern.
The minority schedule has the follow
ing relating to the institution of domestic
slavery:
Sec. 1. The right of property is before
and higher than any constitutional sanc
tion, and the right of the owner of a
slave to such slave and its increase is the
same, aud is inviolable as the right of
the owner of i ny property whatever.
Sec. 2. The Legislature sha 1 have no
power to pass laws for the emancipation
of slaves without the consent of their
owners, or without paying their owners
previous to emancipation, a full equiva
lent in money for the slaves so emanci
pated. They shall have no power to
prevent emigrants to the State from
bringing with them such persons as are
deemed slaves by the laws of any one of
the United States or Territories so long
as any person of the same age or de
scription shall be continued by the laws
of this State; provided that such person
or slave shall be the bona fide property of
such emigrant ; and, provided, also, that
laws may bo passed to prohibit the intro
duction of slaves into this State who
have committed High crimes in other
States or Territories. They shall have
power to pass laws to permit the owners
of slaves to emancipate them, saving the
rights of creditors, and preventing them
from becoming a public charge. They
shall have power lo oblige the owners of
slaves to treat them with humanity—to
provide for their necessary food and
clothing—to abstain from all injuries to
them, extending to life or limb—and in
case of neglect or refusal to comply with
the direction of such laws, to have such
slave or slaves sold for the benefit of the
owner or owners.
Sec. 3. In the prosecution of slaves frr
critutjj of higher grade than petit larcein ,
the Legislature shall have no power n
deprive them of an impartial trial b_, a
petit jury.
Sec. 4. Any person who shall dism ‘in
ber or deprive a slave of live shall sutler
such punishment as would be inflicted in
case the like offence had been committed
on a froe white person, and of the like
proof, except in case of insurrection of
such slave.

Right of a Railroad to lay Us Track
In a City.
Ail important decision has just been
given by the hightest court in New York
upon the right of a rail road company to
lay its track in a public street. A citi
zen of Syracuse sued the Central Rail
road Company for damages, for having
laid its track in front of bis property.—
It was contended in opposition to his
claim, that as it was a putdic street, and
had been surrendered to the public use
by the owners of the adjoining property,
the company had a right to build a rail
road through it, inasmuch as this was one
mode by which the public made use of it.
The Supreme Court decided in favor of
the railroad company ; but the Court of
Appeals reversed this decision, deciding
that the dedication of land to the use of
the public as a highway is not a dedica
tion of it to the use of a railroad compa
ny, and that consequently a railroad can
not be built upon a highway without com
pensation to the owners of the fee.
New Material for Water Pipes.
Sheet iron pipes of <i peculiar construc
tion are in use in France and England.
They are made of sheet iron, which is
bent the required form, and then strong
ly riveted together; after which they arc
coated with an alloy of tin, and the lon
gitudinal joints are soldered so as to ren
der them both air-tight and water proof.
In order to give them more stiffness, they
arejnext coated on the outside with as
phalt cement, and, if they are intended to
be used as water pipes, the inside is also
coated with bitumen, and resists, like
glass, the action of acids and alkalies.—
They are so elastic that they will bear a
considerable defection without injuring
the pipes, or causing any leakage at the
joints. The vertical joints screw together
in the same manner as cast iron pipes.—
These pipes are used for water, for gas,
and for draining, and are found to be
more economical than iron, besides being
less liable to leak, and for water pipes
they are more healthy than the common
ones.
