C OLIT M B XJ Sj SATURDAY MORNING, SBPT. 23,1866. Reading Matter on Every Ta gt. Matin of the Hagro. Os course slavery is dead. Everybody in the South now understand# that. Hut the death of slavery carries with it cer tain incidents whioh many do not seem to understand. The difference between the status of the negro as a slave and hie status as a freeman, is very great, and will necessarily involve a thorough change m our political system. Have our people reflected upon the oonsequenoe of this charge, and Tally prepared their minds to meet it? For nothing is more certain than (bat grave questions of policy arising from it will have to be dearly defined, discussed, and settled before ouj Repre sentatives will be admitted to seats in the National Congress. The sooner we meet these questions the better. We accepted the abolition of slavery as a fact whioh we could not avoid. We shall have to aooept other factß, incident to this, before we will be allowed representation. If not allowed representation in Congress, the Southern States will continue to be held as they now are, —as revolted provinces wholly beyond the pale of Civil Law, and at the meroy of Military Power. We must not only acoustom ourselves to regard the negro as a freeman, entitled to the rights of a freeman, but we muqt abolish all those State laws, and parts of oriminal codes, whioh contemplate him only as a slave. A freemaj is not noces satily a citizen; but freemen in every oountry, whelher oitizens, aliens or deni zens, arc entitled to certain rights now denied the negro by our civil and penal codes. These rights we may grant or not as wo sec proper; but if they are not granted, our State will continue to bo ruled by Provost Marshals. Men arc aspiring to scats in the ap proaching State Convention. Have these men seriously reflected upon the duties to bo performed, and tho grave responsi bilities to bo assumed, by each individual member of that Convention 1 Have they seriously reflected upon the questions which are certain to ariße in that Conven tion? and, if so, are they prepared to fearlessly assume the responsibility of a deoidod stand upon those issues ? How do they propose voting, for instance, upon a resolution declaring the ordinance of seoession unconstitutional, and, therefore, null and void, ab initio f How do they propose voting upon a proposod constitu tional amendment regulating and prescrib ing the rules of testimony in oivil tribu nals whore freodmen are parties to the suit ? It is not neoessary, under tho Federal Constitution, that a freeman shallbeaoiti zen in order to become a freeholder. What protootlon do candidates to the State Convention proposo throwing around the rights of blaoks who aro nofr, or may be come, freeholders ? Aliens aud denizens aro entitled to a fair and impartial trial before our civil tribunals for misdemeanors. Rut aliens and denizens are oompelent witnesses in suoh cases. How shall this bo with the negro, who is now a free denizen of Georgia ? This question is oevtaiu to arise, and will have io be met. Are men who seek the position of Delegate to our State Convention prepared to aot with deoision and promptness upon this ques tion ? They should reflect well upon Ihe duties and responsibilities they seek to assume. That. Convention will bo some thing different from ordinary legislative assemblies, whore men are expected to make Aippant speeohes aud prepare reso lutions oourting public favor. It will present no field for oratory or impassioned declamation. It will present a wide field for solemn duty, the judicious perform anoe of which will requiro a clear head, steady nerve, and strong common sense, oupled with an honest purpose. Wo have such men in Goorgia. Let them now be oalled into action. Their services will be needed. President Johnson'* Home. The former dwelliug house of President Johnson is a two story brick houso in Greenville, Tonn. Tho house is mush dilapidated, having been usod as a hospi tal and headquarters by both armies. The library has been culled and is now piled up in one corner. The shop whero he worked is a little frame, gable end to ward the street, twelve feet by fifteen, and standing alone. On a signboard over the door (whioh is in the oentre, Hanked by two Bin all windows,) are the simple words : A. JOHNSON, taiior. Important Uceislou*. Attorney General Speed has decided that persons, who were formerly in the naval servioe of the United Slates aud aooepted employment in the rebel servioe, and who have not forfeited their oitizen sbip by joining in tbe rebellion, oan en gage in any pursuit or occupation open to other oitizens, prior to receiving a pardon from the President. They are liable at any time, however, to be tried, convictod and punished for their treason. Tin Indians. In lb. ■ ndian Council, on the 12th, the Creeks m..ke a lengthy Btatement relative to their action in the war, aaying the names of their ohiefs, affixed to” treaties with the rebels, were used without their knowledge ; and the samo was true with regard to the Indians of the Plaios. Jamea Y. Brame and Thoe. 0. Glasscook are announced as candidates for the May orality of Montgomery. Generals Lee and Johnson, and Gener als Grant, Sherman and Buell, are writing histories of their campaigns. For the Daily Sun. Ed. Sun The few counties whioh have plaoed men in nomination ns candidates to represent them in the State Convention teem to have done so with but ono object in view—that of obeying an invitation of the Provisional Governor. I understand the work of the Oouvention to be, that of restoring the State of Georgia to its prop er, or former relations with, the general government, and to provide means by which the State machinery may be put in running order How this id to be done is a question, or the work the Convention has to do. Many thiifk that the amend ing the State Constitution, abolishing and prohibiting slavery In Georgia, is all that has to be dons to secure Georgia a rep reeentation in the Federal Congress and remove the government troops from the Stato. Both of these objects being very desirable, the people should, therefore, know well the sentiments of those to whom they oonfida this very important work. Georgia was supposed to have been severed from the Union by the pas sage of an ordinance of secession ; and ita supporters claimed the act. to be a consti tutional remedy for a supposed or real wrong, inflicted by the general govern ment. The government not accepting se cession as being legrlly and lawfully light, refused to acknowledge the constitution ality of Georgia’s ordinance of secession, and enforced her supremacy by military power An acknowledgment of this power ha# been made and the fact accepted by the Southern armies. It now remains for Georgia (through her convention) to ao knowlodgolhcunoonslKutionality of tbs or dinance of secession, as it passed her con venlion on the 19th day of January, 1861. Iffiis done, nnd tho Stale will bo in theory and pruqtioo with the Federal government. Though I am only a private citizen of tho State of Georgia, yet I am prepared to say, Georgia will never get her representatives into the Federal Congress until she de nounces secession an unconstitutional act., and all the State did by and under its au thority null and void. Henco the impor tance of the peoplo knowing the senii-u merits of those they send to the Conven tion. Another important subject may be presented for the consideration of the Convention: that of tiullVage : and shou and the action of the Convention be other than that of republican, senators and represen tatives from Georgia will not be admitted to seats in tho Federal Congress ; because the aot would he in conflict with a repub lican government. Yours, very truly, COLUMBUS. Sept. 22d, 1865. —4»K Til* Wnvy. By the close of the year the navy will only have as many vessels in c.ommis sion as at the commencement of the war But three of tho irou-olads will be retain ed in sorvios—one at Charleston, S.

Theiirst twooonsist of thanks to the army and navy aud Providettoe for resent victories. The third exlonds a cordial weieome aud oonfideuce to President Johnson, pledging him unanimous good will and support in his efforts to establish govern ment. in the South on the basis of exact justioe to all. The fourth reaffirms the platform of the last National Convention on the subject of slavory, and asks that there be no relaxa tion by Congress or the Administration, of the vigor or vigilanoa in tho govern ment of the revolted States, which would put at hazard the rights of the people to whom the national faith is pledgod, or which would leave in Southern society tho seeds of the national crime—slavery. The fifth agrees with the Republicans of Pennsylvania that the people lately in rebellion oannot be safely intrusted with the politioal rights they forfeited, until they secure to all men within their borders tho inalienable right to liberty aud the pursuit of happness; aod calls upon Congress to see that the loyal people, white and blaok, shall have the most, per fect guarantees for their safety, before any final steps be taken toward restoring tho revolted people of the South, to their forfeited rights. The sixth declares that no part of the powers of the Government can bo safely committed to tho Southern men lately in rebellion and arms, or to the Northern men who, at Chicago, declared the Exper iment ofSvar to restore the Union a fail ure, &o. The seventh says that no confidence ought to bo placed in professions of or ganisations that, declared tbo necessary protection of the polls from tho assault of ruffians and traitors, to be a shameful violation of the Constitution whioh ought to be resisted, and that now seeks to re instate itself in the power by the nomina tion of soldiers, and passing resolutions of confidence in a Republican Adminis tration. The eighth says we have no new theo ries in relation to negro suffrage, but opposes allowing tho elective franchise to rebels aud traitorous politicises, while loyal men who have borne and shed their blood in our Nation’s defense are excluded, aud Congress should maintain the public faith toward the freedmea while it provides for the peace, solvency and seourity of the country. After addresses from General Butler and others, the Commission adjourned. Sunk.

New York, Sept. 19.—The Herald's Rio Janeiro correspondent furnishes ad ditional interesting intelligence regatding the South American war. We have al ready announced the visit of the Emperor to the soenopf hostilities iu the province of Rio Janeiro. There he started for the frontier to havo a confer® lloo with his two allies, the Presidents of the Argen tine Confederation and of Uruguay. A little eteam ram for the Brazilian navy bad arrived from France. Others had been nearly completed at Rio Janeiro,and it was said that an American General, who had just left there for the United States carried with him a oommission for the construction of iron clads for the Empe ror in this oountry. Volunteering for the Brazilian army was very aotivo, in the provinces on the first call for troops, but in Rio Janeiro it had become necessary to commenoe consctipting, whioh was being carried on with great vigot and with but little ceremony. Officers attend ed by guards station themselves at the most frequented places iu the principal thoroughfares aud seize and send to the army rendezvouses all passing men and able boys who could tlot show clear cases of exemption. Civil officers of the Gov ernment who did not volunteer would be draited, and be forever afterwards incapa pable of holding similar positions. Tne prospects of the coffee crop in Bra zil were most cheering : but experiments »ae far made in cotton culture has not af forded much encouragement. A party of emigrants from Missouri,, wao were so wedded to the institution of slavery after us destruction they could not. remain iu thoir own country, had ar riv. and in Brazil and gone to the province of Panama to settle. FROM MEXICO. , Hew York, Sept. 19. —An El Pa3t> correspondent of the Philadelphia Enqui rer gives currency to the report that Jua rez designs abandoning his oountry for the present, and is coming on to this city, where he will join his wife and iamily, who have been for sometime residing hero Before leaving Chihuahua ha issued a protest against the imperial occupation of Mexico, inset ting his legitimate claims to the chief magistracy of the country, and said that iu ttiis denouement Jaurez announced himsolf a lull blooded Indian and a lineal descendant of the Monttzu mas. MISCELLANEOUS. New Vim, flepr. 30._Tho Post's special says about thirty pardons were granted by the President to day. One of the pardoned was Dull Green. A cabinet meeting was heid this morning. ilie Tosses by tho tire yesterday was estimated at $4,000,000 Tho bank uffieera met again aud dis cussed, with closed doors, the subject ol proposed exemption of national currency. INTBUNAL EF,VENUE. The entire revenue reporta from inter na! revenue from the Ist July last up to, and inolusivo of to day amounts to the handsome sura of $80,479,602 41; this far exceeds tho, expectations of the oom miooioncr, and in fact is a much greater sum than the most sanguine well wisher of t lie Government has calculated upon The receipts today amount to $1,815,- 496 91. Lieut. 001. G. A. Taggart, acting Adju tant General of (be Freedman’s Bureau, has been 'relieved from duty at his own request, and will tender his resignation and i euro from the service, having been relieved from duty at his own request, and will lender his resignation and retire from the service, having been succeeded by Lieut. Col. Max Woodhull, laic of one of the Now York volunteer regiments. The War Department has decided that officers tendering (heir resignations are entitled to three months’ pay, the same as allowed to officers who are and have been mustered out. The Herald says the amount of notBS issued from the Treasury Department to National Banka last week, was $3,421,- 260, making the grand total $183,408,870 now afloat. PAKDOKS. Over one hundred pardons weregrauled to Bouthern men to-day by the President, a plurality to Alabamians, and majority to Alabamians aud Virginians. FRAUDS IN THE PAY DEPARTMENT. A oareful scrutiny of the new counter feit one hundred dollar coupon interest notes, by all the experts at the Treasury Department, has convinced them that the note was printed from the original dies on bad paper, aud wore engrAved outside of the Treasury. At the commencement of greenback manufacture, by the term of tho contract with the engravers of groon- back plates, the dies were to bo given up to the Treasury Department when it ohose to take the manufacture of ourren cy into its own hands. Secretaries Chase aud Fessenden made demands for the platob, during their t3rms of office, but iioither succeeded in getting hold of all the stockaaud consequently did not pay for tho plates. Upon the accossioaof Mr. McCullough to the Secretaryship, the en gravers made a demand upon him far payment, alleging that they had delivered all the stock. This allegation was denied iu a counter report from the Printing Bu reau. But through some chicanery the report never fell uuder the eye of the Sec retary au*t all transactions between out side engravers and tho Treasury Depart ment were closed and settled by the pay ment of the claim. Jl’he counterfeit note is made of the back of a 5 per cent, in terest note of the same denomination, the. scroll ana latlio are alike with the excep tion of the central portion, where the in terest is computed, the lettering of ihe computation is counterfeited, the balanoe oi the back it is believed has been print ed from Ihe missing portions of ihe stock, whioh has somehow come ibto the pos session of the former. This opinion is shared by all experts in tho Treasury De partment. CORRUPTION IN THE PAY DEPARTMENT. The Timcs's special esys that upon suggestions of corruption among the pay masters of the Department of Missouri, the Government has seat a special inspec tor to that department to investigate the matter. The inspector returned last Sat urday having in custody Paymaster Holt, who was arrested upou various charges of corruption, aud the inspector repre sents that matters in tne paymaster’s de partment in Missouri are generally con ducted in an unacuimonly loose manner. In the Treasury Department a rule that no person, other than those of note print ing department, shall visit the rooms where the greenbacks are prepared,unless upon special order from the Secretary of the Treasury. Occasionally the Secreta ry has given permits to visit these rooms. It is now discovered that some of these persons have taken advantage of the privilege thus extended and have made themselves familiar with the intricate machinery of the establiement, thereby enabling them to counterfeit the National currency. Secretary MoCullooh has now directed that no person other than the employees of the printing department shall under any pretense be permitted to enter the rooms above moutioned I. 0. 0. F. Baltimore, Sept. 19. —Two rebel Ken tuckians, George Merriwether and G. H. Williamson, while onboard the Albany day boat, Vanderbilt, yesterday, openly declared their rebel sympathies, and cheered for Gen. Lee.

The Odd Fellows met in Baltimore to day at noon. The Grand Sire presented his annual report, in which, with no ordinary emotions of pleasure, he con gratulated his fellow representatives at being assembled in another convention of the Supreme Grand Lodge under such in teresting auspices and circumstances, and he expressed his highest satisfaction that he was permitted to meet again tbe repre sentatives of nearly all the jurisdiction who had been precluded from fellowship with other representatives for four years, for retrospect for years whioii furnishes abundant cause of congratulation at the Order survived and the terrible ordeal through which it has passed and which threatened its unity. He referred to his efforts which were successful iu obtain ing oommuuication with itm grand lodges The report of the grand secretarr, James L. Lidley, was also submitted, embracing a detailed report of the eondttion of the order in various jurisdictions, in all of whioh tve order is in a very prosperous state. During the fiscal year, ending September first of the present year, he had received from the States grand lodge encampments the sum of $163,111, while there was remaining unpaid $240,000, making an aggregate of sl,T>4l,6lo—a laiger sum than has ever been received since the organization of tbe supreme lodge.
