CONSERVATIVE MEETINO.
A meeting Of the Conservatives of
Muscogee County, for the purpose ol
effecting an organization of the party,
will beheld in Temperance Hall in Co¬
lumbus, on Saturday night the 28th in
slant. All persons opposed to the de
structive measures of the Radical party

country are invited to attend.
Addresses by able gentlemen may be
i xpected. Muscogee
Let the Conservatives of

participate in the elTort to save the
State and the people from the ruin that
impends. _
Our Carrier’s Address —To our
patrons we would say, that our carrier
hoys, the most deserving and reliable
set wo have ever had about our office,
will be amongst them to-day to present
their annual address. The address it¬
self is well written, suitable to the oc¬
casion, and gotten up in handsome
syl«. We earnestly commend the
hoys, who have taithfully and promptly
performed their duties during the year,
to the generous remembrance of the
readers of the Sun.
It will be seen from the proceedings
ol Pope’s Menagerie in Atlanta on Mon¬
day, that that body adjourned to the
8th of January. We Dpine, however,
as they received no pay or rations for
services thus far, and the prospects for
pay in the future are slim, we feel safe
in congratulating the country that the
farce in Georgia has played out.
Futthfuf Huiouti H>e Faithless.
The following item from the Federal
Union tells its own tale :
We learn that A. L. Augier, dis
bursiug officer of too Atlanta Couven
Don, was in this city on Saturday last,
for the purpose of getting f40,000 from
the State Treasurer, to defray the ex
ponses of the Convention. Capt. Jones
informed him that he could pay no
money from the State Treasury, except
that aud appropriated by the Legis'ature
drawn on a warrant from the Gov¬
ernor, approved by the Comptroller
Ge&eral.
Captain Jones deserves as he will re¬
ceive the thanks of every true Georgian
for liis faithful aud fearless performance
of his sworn duties. lie has had the
manliness aud courage to observe bis
official oath and lo protect aa far as was
in his power thepiopi rly of the people
of Georgia. It may cost him his posi¬
tion, as also that of Governor Jenkins,
but their decapitation will but commend
them more closely to the confidence
aud respect of those who have hereto
fore honored them. By reference to
another column, it will be ob¬
served that the “Biack Crook” has
bursted up in a dead-broke condition,
and in a very unamiablo humor.—
Boarding-house keepers and washer¬
women will find but slender remunera¬
tion iu the “carpet bags” of the scala¬
wags and uiggers, who have been de
feated in their attempt, to rob honest
people. Thu times look squally, and
Judge Chase may soon have u case be¬
fore him involving the constitutionality
of tho Sherman-Shelb&rger abomination
that he cannot dodge.
Negro Disturbances. — Troops
have been sent from Savannah to Da
Tien, and to plantations on the Ogechee
river, to restore peace aud older in
those sections. The negroes who have
been trained and taught by Bradley—
the big nigger of Pojmj’s Convention—
are becoming troublesome and danger¬
ous.

Louisville Courier, from Atlanta, makes
the following pali>ahle hit:

markets of the world, our labor system

trembling ire in ui> & in the balance, ' and the little
of personal liberty and civil pnvilegte
left to us threatened with destruction at
the impious hands of an ignoraut and
fanatical mob, there is nothing in our
surroundings calculated to kindle with¬
in us feelings of joy and mirth. In
place of dinners, junketings, dances
and frolics it were more meet to the
’
occasion that we should iii. assemble mi!,,
around the sacred altars of our sane
tuariesand mingle with our thanks I’ at

custom as inexorable as established
law law, must uiusi have uu its sway, j, and through- .
out the .length and breadth ol this fan
laud Christmas will be welcomed with >
the bust heart aud grace left to a people |
whoso happiest reminiscences are con* i
nected with its observance. Men and
women will make a grim effort to be
cheerful, if not gay, for the nonce.
The little ones, God bless them, upon
whom the dark shadows of Life liavo
not fallen, may seek to perpetuate the
pleasures of this long looked lor day
with displays of gifts and toys and the
noisy discharges of celestial pyrotech¬
nics. It is well for them that they can¬
not know of the sorrows and troubles
that cluster thick around the head and
hearts of older ones.
To our former slave people this day
will mark the final close of that delirium
which followed their emancipation. In
the accomplishment of the financial
ruin of the white people of the South,
their professed friends have entailed
upon them for the future, poverty, toil,
and a hard struggle for existence. When
the holidays shall have been passed,
and their wages and savings of the
present year bIiuII have been expended
in tho trinkets and gewgaws, whost
temptalions are stronger than the ideas
of economy aud prudence ol a limit¬
less race, they will awake to the stern
reality that freedom and political privi¬
leges have brought to them none of
the substantia) blessings of Life. It
will lie well for them, aud their future,
if in such a moment they may bo
brought to realize the fact, that those
whose counsels and friendship they
have scouted to follow after strange and
unprincipled adventurers, are the only
friends upon whose constancy and kind
offices they may rely for protection,
justice and employment. But we would
not willingly add by words of ours to
the painful oppression of our patrons
and friends.
There is still something of hope aud
consolation left in the recollection of
tho trite and homely adago that “the
darkest hour is just before day.” All
signs of tho national horizon indicate
that our political troubles are at their
worst. A powerful and vigorous re
action has seized hold of (he public
mind of the country, aud in the great
heart of the people tho memories and
passions engendered by a fratricidal
war, are giving way to better coun
sels and more liberal and reasonable
sentiments. It is l'aaly within tho
bounds of human probabilities, that
next Christmas may find us vastly bet¬
tered iu condition, strengthened iu pur¬
pose and so chastened by
passed, as to renew with grateful
joyous hearts the merrymakings
Christmas times in the South of
years ago. To the brave and honorable
men who have sustained us by words
of encouragement in the contest which
has been put upon us ; to the kind aud
indulgent friends and patrons of tho
Sun, who have aided us to uphold the
rights of the virtuous and intelligent
people of Georgia ; to one aud all, we
tender the best compliments of the sea¬
son, with the heartfelt wish that the
coining year may bring to us all bright¬
er fortunes and the full fruition of our
common hopes.
The Labor Question. —The Vicks¬
burg Herald says the late order ot Geu.
Gillern, compelling Ireedmeu to find
employment or suffer the penalties
vagrancy, has stirred up the darkies
considerably. The Herald thiuks the
planters will be able now to command
labor at reasonable figures. It says
five dollars per mouth is :\s much as
any planter can pay for an able bodied
man and realize even a living, and
doubts whether in the present impover¬
ished condition of the country, they can
even afford to pay that.
Bucli an order in t General Pope's dis¬
trict would make a decided improve¬
ment iu the condition of the negroes iu
Georgia and Alabama. The great iail
ure of the planters to meet expenses in¬
curred in making the crop of 1S67,
makes them slow :o contract for labor
lor 1866. Solar we have hoard of hut
one engagement—that in Alabama—
for food and clothing. Few, m view
the cost of provisions, will be able to
do better and make the lent ou their
land.

N. L. Anoiek.
On motion, tins report was adopted,
and the body proceeded to the consider¬
ation of flic ordinance reported by the
Finance Committee, as above given.
J. E. Bryant opposed It any utterly attempt, impos¬ to
sible. negotiate The a loan. Treasurer‘had was snubbed-the
Convention, and this made its legality
tho test question, nr.d he wa nted no fur¬
ther issues introduced.
Wesley Shropshire said Congress bad
given no power to the Convention to
call on the Treasurer for money. To
levy and Collect, a tax as provided in
reconstruction acts, would take too
much time, aud there was nothing left
but, to issue bonds as provided in the
ordinance.
J. E..Bryant negotiating asked if there such was loan, any
probability Shropshire of said a adopt
Wesley that give to Gen.
this ordinance would at least
Pope “more strength, more nerve.”
J. E. Bryant repeated that the Con¬
vention had been snubbed by officers
claiming to be officers of the State; that
ibis brought up the question of legality
and that he wanted this met, before tur
I’icr issues were made, lie had con¬
sulted with moneyed men, and there
was not one of them who would ad¬
vance a dollar while tiiis was ubeer
tain.
L. K. Trammell said it bad been ar¬
gued that the ’-’resent Stale Government
id'Georgia was illegal. If this was so,
the money in the Treasury had been il¬
legally ^collected, aud would the Con¬
vention venture on such a fetep as to
put in their hands and take it out? Ho
would have nothing to do with such a
scheme of robbery. The reconstruction
acts pointed ont the way in which
funds were to ‘ be obtained, and in this
•connection he would read a certain
document, which, being read, was as
follows:
If. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 1st, 1307.
J. McDaniel:
But—Your attention is called to the
following t-xliuct from the Bupplcmeivt
atySAcl passed by Congress, March 2d,
1807 :
Sec. S. And be it further enacted,
That the convention for each State shall
prescribe the fees, salary, and compen and
aatiou to be paid to all delegates

ized or necessary to carry into effect the
purposes of this act, uot herein "other¬
wise provided for, and shall provide far

the property in such State us may be nice
tssrtry to pay the same.
The levying the anil collection of Delegates, of a special
tax, for payment will,
probably cover a period of six to
twelve mouths
This may be a mutter .0; interest to
candidates.
KeepocU'aiiy E. Huldek! .
C, C. Richardson asked if he was u>
nuderstund tout all delegates had re¬
ceived this notice. He had not.
h. N. Trammell said liie member was
hardly in a position to have received
it. (Laughter.) He had only been a
candidate one day before toe election,
and that 1)0 miles away from his place
of residence. (Laughter and loud ap¬
plause in the lobby.) The speaker then
went on lo reiterate that toe Conven¬
tion bud no right’ to put its hand imo
the Treasury and said so closed.
R. B. Bullock the question was
j J one the Consultation of right. Tfie of officers 1865 had elected defied under this
j Convention. If they could day Geu.
j Pope's authoriiv, then members were
j personally unsafe ; they were commit
I ting treason ugatoet the Stale.
P. B. Birdfora asked if .there was any
cue iu the body o. toe Convenf-on wno
believed Ural Governor Jenkins was tho
friend of any man there, (murmurs
and “No,’’ No.”) The question was
who was to rule. If Johnson could
rule, the Convention, let him; it not, it
would rule him. The issue was be

Ji. V. m. Miner read largely from the
legislation of the State, to show that a
warrant from the Governor was not
necessarily prerequisite Treasurer, to toe paying

said that the real point was as to the
legality of the ordt&ance ; anti he held
that it the Convention had, the right to
legislative legislate at body all, it had in it as fully as any
the State ever has
hail, or can have. (Hear, hear, hear,
from Aaron Aipt-oria Bradley, negro,
and- laughter.)

Aaron Alpebijalir.idley, negro, want¬
ed lire ordinance under consideration
tabled, and the Scrgeant-at-Arms sent
with a file of soldiers to bring
the Trcariurer before the bar of the Con¬
vention. Pope would not dare take
him .away, nor would he refuse the
guard of soldiers.
J. E. Bryant raised a point of order
on Aaron Aipuoria Bradley, negro, but
it was disfiilovvc i, and Aaron Alpeoria
Bradley, m-gio, proceeded to say the
grievances of the Convention came not
from Governor .Tonkins, but Major
General John Pope, who was too
weak kneed to do Uis duty.
W. P. Edwards said his view was
that'Jenkins : do aid be turned out was ;
now approv. d. He wished to God that
the CwiVfniioii-pJuW snub Gen. tallied Pope,
and he wished the ordinance not
hut under the table or kicked out of the
hall.
A. T. Akennfiq siiiu the ordinance
had nothing to do with any war be¬
tween General Pope and the Governor,
or the Convention and Gen. Pope, but
merely to obtain supplies probabilities while the way
was going on. The negotiated, wore j
