TUESDAY MOItN’G, DEC. 4, 1860.
Georgia Annual Conference of tlie lUe
tlioilisi Episcopal Church, South.
1 his body has been in session in this city for
• oi al days past, and will perhaps close its labors
by Thursday or Friday next. Quite a large num
ber ot ministers are in attendance, and while lay
men, we believe, have nothing to do in the delib
erations of the body, there are many of them
here, attracted by the meeting, and intent on
hearing and seeing the “big’guns” of the Georgia
itinerancy.
On Sunday the # pulpits of many of the Churches
of Augusta and vicinity were filled by the'Metho
dists. We went rather early to St. John’s (Mr.
Graham’s Church, on Greene street,) to hear
Bishop Pierce, or “ George,” as his old friends
in this section of Georgia will persist in calling
him. The Church, above and below, was filled to
its utmost capacity, St. John’s, perhaps, never
had a larger number within its walls—at least not
since the days of hoops, though before, a larger
crowd might have been got inside it. In company
with many others, we stood up during the whole
service. That, great “ Tribune of the People,”
Senator Toombs, was among the attentive and in
terested hearers. To the Bishop’s left, iu the
pulpit, sat Rev. James E. Evans, with that calm,
meek, saintly face, resembling the pictured Joiin
the disciple that the Master loved so well. On
...slight was Rev. Josiah Lewis, rugged and
strong. Behind lnm sat the venerable lather,
Allen Turner.
xir- i %
n hat e been accustomed to hear George
Pierce, at intervals, since our boyhood. Our first
recollection of him goes hack—oh mv—twenty
two years ago. It wa3 in the summer of 1 ; 3S,
when he was Presiding Elder of the Augusta Dis
trict, if our memory serves us aright, that we
first heard him at a quarterly meeting, at Shiloh,
in Colombia county. We can remember very
little about it, except that there was a great
crowd—that all said it was a great sermon, that
be preached out of doors, that there was much
feeling, and that we cried in sympathy. The text
was—“So then because thou art lukewarm, and
neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my
mouth.” Twenty-two years ! What changes
since, in him, in us, in all things ! The old church
there is gone, and the neighborhood has built a
new one—the prettiest Methodist country church
we know of—which, thanks to the untiring ser
vices of Rev. H. J. Apams, has largely increased
its membership during this year.
The Bishop, on Sunday, preached a sermon de
signed mainly for the Itinerant Ministry of Geor
gia, taking for his text 2d Corinthians iv. 5 : “For
we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the
Lord ; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’
sake.” He preached about one hour, and the
most breathless attention was given throughout
by his whole vast auditory. We have heard him
preach greater sermon, we think ; he was some
what hoarse and husky, but towards the close the
old fire, the electric pathos which makes all man
kind a brotherhood, burst forth as it was wout in
the old days, and scarcely a dry eye was observa
ble.
The Bishop must be now nearly fifty years of
age, and if he has the stamina of his father, may
grace the bishopric for near half a century yet.—
lie is rather tail and spare—dresses in black
without the white neck cloth, looks somewhat
worn, and hi3 face is furrowed, Las black hair,
arranged with studied negligence, bright black,
or dark brown eyes, nose Giecian, mouth hand
some, forehead high rather than broad He isnot
perhaps so handsome as his brother Tom, nor does
he need to be.
Mr. Evans preached at St. Johns in the after
noon, but we were prevented from hearing him—
which we regret, as he is a favorite of ours.
At night “the old Doctor,” Lovick Pierce, fath
er of the Bishop, preached the funernal sermon of
“the dead of the year’—those who had died in
harness, since the last meeting of Conference.—
He preached from Hebrews xi. 13. “These all
died ia faith, cot having received the promises,
but having seen them afar off, and were persuad
ed of them, and embraced them, and confessed
that they were sti angers and pilgrims on the
earth.” There tvas a very large crowd, and the
Dr. preached somewhat more than two hours.—
The dead were only three, ali superannuated,
Smith, Arnold, aud Turner.
Dr. Lovick Pierce is now perhaps seventy-five
or eighty years of age, but still straight, stalwart,
and in good voice ; aud ‘shows no diminution of
mental power. We have not heard him, we be
lieve, since 1843 or 1844, in Milledgville. He
seems much the same, and holds his own remark
ably well. He has been in the itinerancy now
fifty-six years. What a life has been his—of w hat
value would it be, if written ! It would be the
history of Methodism in Gergia—the history of
that church orgauizution, which seems to have
been specially designed for our new and growing
country—which has dovetailed so well with our
political life—which has grown with the growth
of our dear country, strengthened with its
strength. What a glory crowns the life of this
great and good man! Spared for years and
years to see his works crowned with victory—to
have a foretaste of them here, rather than have
them follow him. One son a Bishop, and among
the most popular preachers in America, two
Others following in their father’s footsteps, and
others “gone before !” And still his span of life
is stretched out—may he he spared many years
yet, to see au inkling here of the glory of here
afier.
Financial.— The Nashville American of Friday
says : {‘Since the suspension of specie payments
by the old Banks, they have been discounting
quite liberally, and to-day the discounts were very
liberal. If this policy should be kept up by all of
them the business community will experience
very material relief. We hear of no change in
uncurrent money ; indeed, our Brokers show no
disposition to purchase to anv extent of any des
cription, so that our quotations remain nominal.
We mentioned the other day that one of our most
energetic Bankers was endeavoring",to perfect ar
rangements through his Southern coi respondents,
by which he would be enabled to purchase South
ern Money at considerably less than we are now
quoting it. We regret to learn that so far his
efforts have been unsuccessful, Though, with his
usual energy, he is still at work in the hope of
being able to accomplish something for the re
lief of those in this community who hold that des
cription of currency.
“We were shown a private letter from Memphis
to-day, which states that up to the 2Sth the Banks
there had done very little to relieve the pressure
in the Money market.”

Lynchburg, 1 a., Nov. 29. —Senator Douglas
and lady arrived here on the Tennessee train to
night. He spoke from the balcony of the Nor veil
House to a crowd of near 2,000 persons. The
subject discussed by him was the present state of
affairs in the country. He thought ths election of
Liucoln no cause lor a dissolution of the Union
He was for fighting in the Union arid under the
Constitution; thought Southern Congressmen
should resume their seats in Congress, otherwise
the Republican party would be in the majority.—
Thev (the Republicans) are powerless.
Horace Maynard, of Tennessee, who accompa
nied Mr. Doug>as, made a 6trong conservative
speech, and endorsed all Senator Douglas bad
**Both speeches were applauded moderately.—
Their personal reception was enthusiastic. They
*re en to Washington,
Gov. Brown's Vote of the Bank Bill.
Executive Department, 1
Millkdgeville, Ga., Nov. 80th, ’6O. f
To the Senate :
The bill entitled “An Act to grant relief to the
Banks and the People of this State, and to repeal
certain clauses of the Act entitled an Act to pro
vide against the forfeiture of the several Bank
charters in this State, on account of the non-spe
cie payment, for a given time, and for other pur
poses, passed in the year 1857 ; and to suspend
the pains and penalties imposed upon the several
banks and their officers, in this State, for the
non-payment of specie, and“for other purposes,”
is herewith returned, without approval ;’ for the
general reasons against legalizing bank suspen
sion contained in my message to the Senate ac
companying the return of a similar bill, on the
22d day of December, 1857. As the reasons given
iu that message against the justice and policy of
such a law as the one proposed by this bill, are
fresh in the minds of the people of this State, I
do not deem it necessary to repeat them here, in
detail. They have been the subject of much dis
cussioD, aud have been sanctioned and sustained
by the people, at the ballot box. It may be claim
ed that the circumstances are difi'erenffrom those
which existed in December, 1857. At the time of
the passage of that act of 1857, the banks of most
of the States in this Union, had suspended. The’
banks ol the State of Louisiana formed an excep
tion. In that State the charters of the banks
were forfeited, if they suspended specie-pay
ment ; and the constitution of the State, prohibi
ted the legislature from passing any law to lega
lize the suspension. The consequence was, thrt
the banks ot that State, neither suspended specie
payment, nor did they suspend business. They
made a small sacrifice, and purchased all the spe
cie Deeded to meet their obligatious, and to lur
nish the accommodations demanded for the pur
pose of carrying the crops to market; while the
banks in most of the other States suspended,
rather than make the sacrifice. The argument in
1857 was, that the banks in the great commercial
cities North, had suspended; and that it was,
therefore, necessary for our banks to suspend, in
self defeapu. Such is not the case at present;
nor is there a general suspension in the Southern
States. If, then, the circumstances are now dif
ferent from those which existed in 1857, that dis
ference is very unfavorable to the present applica
tion of the banks.
In 1857, as now, our legislators were told that
the suspension must be legalized, for the benefit,
not of the banks, but of ttie people. It was said
that the banks would discount liberally, so soon
as the suspe ision bill should become a* law ; and
that they would at once relieve the people. We
all remember the result. Instead of discounting
liberally, with few excepted cases, they refused
to discount at all ; and property was greatly de
preciated in value. In few days after the pas
sage of that act, exchange rose to three percent;
so that every merchant wishing to send money
North, to pay debts, must pay “three dollars out
of every one hundred, for exchange. The banks
may not have sold exchange at those rates when
their own bills were presented in payment for the
exchange. That act, as well as the*present, con
tained a clause which prohibited the banks from
selling exchange at a greater rate than oue per
cent, when their own bids were presented in pay
ment for the exchange. If, therefore, a citizen
of this State presented to a bank its own bills for
the purchase of exchange, it was easy to reply
that the bank had no exchange for sale ; but that
that the broker, near by, had. If the bills of an
other bank were presented in payment, the
statute did not forbid the receipt of the three per
cent; and possibly, the bank had exchange for
sale. Why prohibit the bank from taking more
than one.per ccnt.excbange only when its own
bills are presented in payment? Why not say
that it shall, in no case, take more than one per
cent, for exchange, if it is not intended so to word
the statute as to euable the banks to evade it at
pleasure ?
It is admitted at present by the advocates of
this bill, that the banks are able to meet their lia
bilities m gold and silver ; and that an abundant
supply of specie can be purchased in the market
at a premium of only one-fourth of one per cent.
The banks have had the advantage of prosperous
times, which have enabled them to realize large
profits, declare good dividends amongtheir stock- ’
holders, and pay good salaries to their officers.
It is now necessary for them to pay a small pre
mium for specie, with which they can afford all
tfie tuciliiies necessary to carry the crops to mar
ket, and relieve the people. This they refuse to
do, because it would diminish their profits for a
short time. They prefer to dictate terms of sus
pension. While their bill is pending before the
General Assembly, in order to produce a panic
aud alarm the people and their representatives,
strong as the banks are said to be, they refuse to
discount a dollar, causing a general stagnation in
business, when their vaults are admitted to be well
filled with specie, aud when a small sacrifice
would keep up the supply.
In consideration of the advantages which their
charters afford them over the people iu times of
prosperity, is it not their duty to make a small
sacrifice, if necessary, for the benefit of the peo
ple, in times of adversity ?
The suspension of specie payments by the
[ banks, is m t for the benefit of the banks, but for
the benefit of the people! The constant efforts
made by bank men to practice upon popular cre
dulity, by the declaration of tiiis strange absur
dity, are not a little remarkable.
if this be true, why is it, when such a measure
is to be carried, that our lobbies are crowded with
bank presidents, bank directors and bank stock
j holders, who arc constantly besieging the mem
bers of the General Assembly with clamorous ap
peals for the passage of the bill, while the banks
with which they are connected, co-operate with
them for the purpose of keeping up the excite
ment, by refusing to extend the smallest accom
modation to the people, till the bill is passed?—
Why is it these gentlemen never take upon them
selves to guard the people’s interest and spend
money to secure the passage of bills through the
Legislature, except when it is desirable to pass a
bank suspension bill? This is not the first time I
have seen ali their iutluence brought to bear upon
the legislature, for the purpose of accomplishing
an object in the midst of wild excitement anu
great alarm. The small number of members of
i the present General Assembly, who were here in
■ lc>s7, and voted for the bank bill of that year,
i will, 1 think, concur with me in the statement,
that the excitement at the capitol in 1857, was
much greater than the advocates of the present
bill, have been able to create, on this occasion.—
The people then did not appreciate the favor con
ferred ou them, by the passage of the law.
If the planters, mechanics and other laboring
classes of our people, desire the banks to suspend,
and to pay them for their produce, and their la
bor, in bills which they will not redeem in specie,
and with which our merchants will not be able to
purchase exchange without paying u heavy pre
mium, \\ by have they not sent delegates to de
mand the passage of this act, and to ask trie legis
lature to give them suspended bank notes, as a
currency, in place of gold or silver, or the bills of
specie paying banks 7 The reason is obvious.
The great mass of the people have not seen the
necessity for the passage of any such law ; and
do not desire it. They have no speculation to
make out of it; nor are they to be beuefitted by
it. But we are told, that a suspension of specie
payment by the banks, will make money plenty,
llow cm this be the case ? Will the suspension
produce a blade of grass, or an ear of corn, or a
boll of cotton, or a dollar of gold or silver, or in
any other way add to the material wealth of the
btate V No. But it is said, the banks will issue
more bills or notes, and give those bills or notes
to the planter, for his cotton. What benefit will
result from this ? Will they then give him gold
or silver for the bills V No.* They are not willing
to redeem those already issued, with gold and
silver. The plain truth is, then, that the bunks
want to purchase, with their bills, the planters’
cotton and other produce, for which they can get
gold ; and they want the authority of the legisla
ture for refusing to redeem the bills given for it,
with the gold. But it is said, the cotton crop can
not be carried to market, if the banks are not per
mitted to buy it, or to enable brokers, or cotton
buyers under their control, to buy it, with sus
pended bank bills.
The present cotton crop is admitted to be a
short one. The manufacturers of the world are
obliged to have it; and if every bank in Georgia
were blotted out of existence, the cotton would
still go to market; and in ninety days the plan
ters would get gold for it, if they refused to take
the bills of suspended banks, which are always at
a heavy discount. Since 1857, the banks have
grown more imperious. They then demanded re
lief Irom the suspension already made. They
now demand legal authority in advance for their
intended violation of their promises, and relief
from all the pains and penalties prescribed by law
against their bad faith.
*I ’ Iwx nnn/in/1 c uni inn /> f ♦ 1-I n An ♦ 1 O n n a
The second section of the Act of 1857, as a pen
alty for the suspension and the refusal of a bauk
to redeem its bills in specie, gave the bill holder
who might bring suit upon the bills of the bauk,
ten per cent, damages, in uddition to the'principal
and interest due him from the bauk ; and provi
ded that the collection, when made under execu
tion, should be in gold or silver. The Act of 17th
December, 1859, increased this penalty to twenty
five per cent. If a bank suspended and refused
to redeem its bills in specie, and tbe bill holder
was obliged to have the bills protested and to pay
lawyer’s fees to have suit brought upon them, the
damages allowed as a penalty, by those statutes
to the bill holder, amounted to some compensa
tion ; and would at least pay the attorney’s fees,
and save him from the loss of part of the debt due
him by the bank. The Act now under considera
tion, denies to the bill holder even this poor com
pensation. It enacts that, “all and every, the
pains and penalties, heretofore imposed upon the
several banks and their officers, in said State, by
any previous legislation of the General Assembly
of the same, for failure or refusal of said banks,
or their branches, to redeem their liabilities in
gold and silver, when presented, according to
their several charters, are hereby suspended, un
til the Ist December, 1861.”
The friends of the banks tell us that they are
strong ; that they have plenty of specie, and can
purchase additional supplies, if needed, for a very
small premium. This bill, if it becomes a law,
authorizes them to suspend, and refuse either to
pay their notes with the specie now in their vaults,
or to purchase more for that purpose. One of our
citizens, in the country, has one hundred dollars
of the bills of one of the banks, and wishes the
specie for them. He presents them at the coun
ter of the bank, and makes the dema id. The
cashier informs him that the bauk has gold plen
ty, but that it does not wish to pay it out accord
ing to promise ; or, that it w shes to speculate
upon the gold by sending it out of the State to buy
up the notes of our merchants or'others. He in
sists that he needs the gold, as he cannot use the
suspended bank bills without sustaininga loss up
on them, and reminds the eashier of the promise
of the bank to pay specie. The cashier replies,
“ Your legislature has authorized us to violate
our promise. It is true, we issue three, and often
five dollars, in notes, ior every one dollar in
Epecie in our vaults ; and we get interest from the
people on all these notes, while we pay no inte
rest to our bill holders; but we do not choose to
pay the principal ; we prefer to speculate upon
our money.” The bill holder probably then de
eires to put the claim in a condition that he may
at least get interest on his bills. He has them
protested, and brings suit against the bank. For
this purpose, he must pay an attorney’s fee out of
the amount due him from the bank. The act of
1857, iu such case, gave him ten per cent damages
agaiust the bank, to secure him against this loss.
The bill now before me, if it becomes a law, re
lieves the bank from this, aud all other penalties
incurred by its violation of promise, ana leaves
the bill holder to suffer the loss. Is this justice ?
Is it the relief which the people demand from their
representatives ? It is not very difficult to under
stand why bank officers haug round the legisla
ture, for the purpose of producing a panic, aud
affording this kind of relief to the people.
It may be claimed that the present political as
pect of affairs, requires the legislation proposed
by this bill. In case the convention of the people
of this State, when it meets in January next, shall
pass an ordinance declaring th-3 State out of the
Union, on account of the refusal of the Northern
States io abide by the Constitution, it may become
proper to make uu exception to a general rule,
and permit a suspension, for a short time ; as a
change in the relations of Georgia to the United
States’ Government, might, for a time, produce
some derangement in the currency, which could
not be anticipated by the banks ; and they might,
in such case, be entitled to a lenity to which they
would not be entitled, under ordinary circumstan
ces. Ido uot admit, however, that it is either
wise or just, to pass an act iu advance, which au
thorizes the suspension till Dec. ’6l, without re
gard to what may be the action of the convention.
If the State secedes from the Union, the legisla
ture will, probably, have to be again convened, to
provide lor our future safety and welfare j aud it
might then be time enough to determine this
question.
The act of 1840 makes it the duty of the Gover
nor, in case uny bank suspends specie payments,
to cause judicial proceedings to be instituted
forthwith, for the forfeiture of its charter. It
might not have been unwise to have passed an
act to change this statute, so that it would not be
the imperative duty of the Governor to proceed
forthwith, against the charters of such banks as
might, for a time suspend, if such changes in cir
cumstances shall occur as warrants tlie suspen
sion ; leaving it in the discretion of the Governor,
or of some other po.ver iu the Government, to or
der proceedings against such suspended banks,
or not, as the exigencies of the case might require.
This, m my opinion, is the greatest extent to
which the legislature should go.
Should the State fail to secede from the Union
immediately, or in case of secession should confi
dence be restored in a very short time, (which I
think would be the case,) 1 can see no just reason
why the people should remain at the mercy of the
banks, or the country be cursed with an irredeem
able paper currency, until the Ist day of Decem
ber, IstU, without any power iu the Executive, or
any other branch of the Government, to relieve
the people by compelling the hanks to redeem
their promises, and pay their debts, or Lave their
charters forfeited. If this hill become a law, pro
perty of every character will, in my opinion, as
soon as the banks suspend, be greatly depreciat
ed m value. Our merchants will have to pay
much higher than they do, for exchange ; aud a
general pressure will eusue, which wfli greatly
injure the whole people of the South.
But we may be told, that the people are fully
compensated for the injustice done them iu other
parts of the bill, by tfie provisions contained iu the
fourth section, which also relieves tlie people
from all obligations to pay their debts, till the Ist
of December, 1861. That section is intnese words :
“That iu the event of suspension of specie pay
ment, by any of the banks of Savannah, Augusta
and Atlanta, in this State, which shall be made
known by proclamation of the Governor, it shall
not be lawful for any plaintiff in fi fa., his agent
or attorney, to have the same levied upon the
property of any inhabitant, or corporation of this
Stale, until the Ist of December, 161 ; neither
sha.l any of the property of any such inhabitant
or corporation, be sold under and by virtue of any
such Jifa., order, or dec.ee ; nor shall any person
be arrested or imprisoned under and by virtue of
any proceeding under writs of ca. sa., until the Ist
of* December, 1861 ; except in cases where the
plaintiff', his agent or attorney, shall make affida
vit that the defendant is removing, or about to
remove without the limits of this State, or any
county thereof ; oris removing, or about to re
move his property beyond tlie limits of this State,
or any county thereof; in such cases, the defend
ant may stay such levy, or sale, arrest or impri
sonmeiit, until the Ist of December, 1861, by giv
ing good and sufficient security, in the Clerk’s
office, or Justice’s office, from whence said Ji fa.,
or ca. sa., issued as in other cases of stay or exe
cution, for the paynn ut of the debt aud costs, at
the expiration of said stay, or for his appearance
to render satisfaction under such arrest, at the
first term of the court happening after said Ist
December, IS6I, as in cases of arrest under ca. sa.,
by the existing laws ; aud in all cases where
property is now levied on and in the hands ot the
levying officer, the defendant may replevy the
same by giving bond and security, either for the
forthcoming ot the property, or the payment of
the debt and costs, on the Ist day of December,
1861, or the first regular sale ‘day thereafter ;
provided, that this section shull uot be so con
strued as to apply to any ta •x.Jifa. issued or to be
issued ; and provided further, that the statutes of
limitation sfiall cease to run against any debt
during the suspension of said banks.”
By a careful reading of this section, it will be
seen that, in the event any of the Banks of Sa
vannah, Augusta or Atlanta —no matter which
one, nor whether it is solvent or insolvent—sus
pends, all collections of debts by the laws of this
State, are to cease till first December, 1861. If
the present distrust should pass away immediate
ly and full prosperity should be restored, and any
one of the Banks of either of said cities, should
break, or for any other reason suspend specie
payment for a single day, this act on that ac
count, suspends the collection of debts, all over
Georgia, tiil first December, 1861. The bill even
proposes to signalize the event of the suspension
of any of the Banks of either of said cities, by
making it the duty of the Governor of this State,
to make known the fact by Proclamation. My
observation lias been, that the bill holders who
suffer by the bad faith of a bank which breaks, or
suspends, usually learn the fact very soon, with
out the necessity of dignifying the event by a
Proclamation from the Executive of the State.
It will be further observed, that this section
stays all executions between plaintiffs and defen
dants, in the manner above mentioned, without
requiring any security on stay of execution, for
the final payment of the debt, except in cases
where the plaintiff, his agent or attorney, will
swear, that the defendant is removing, or about to
remove himself or his property, without the limits
of this Stnte, or any county thereof. Under this
statute, if it becomes a law, a denfciidant in fi.fa .,
may sell and transfer all his property to a third
person ; and such third person may remove it all
without the limits of this State, before tbe first
day of December, 1801, and tbe plaintiff must
lose his debt. He may see such third person,
who purchased of the defendant carrying the
property out of the State, uud his judgment may
besot the purchase money of the very property
which is being carried oat of the State, but hi’s
hands are tied by law, and he has no remedy; be
cause the defendant is not himself removing nor
carrying bis property out of the State. He can
not, therefore, be compelled to give security for
the forthcoming of the property, or payment sf
the debt, at the end of the stay ; nor can the
plaintiff stop the removal of the property, in the
bands of the third person who purchased from
the defendant. This is not only gross injustice to
plaintiffs in fifa., but it holds out strong induce
ments to defendants to perpetrate enormous
frauds, under cover of legal authority.
Should this bill become a law, it will also do
great injustice ter'’ creditors, who nre citizens of
Georgia; by giving to Northern creditors, und all
others living out of this State, a preference over
our own citizens, in the collection of their claims.
Citizens of other States holding claims against
merchants or other persons in this State, when
the claim exceeds five hundred dollars, or when
it is for a less sum, by alleging that it exceeds
five hundred dollars, paying cost if it turns out,
ou the trial, that the recovery is for a less sum,
may sue and obtain judgment at the first term of
the United States’ District Court, in all cases
where no defence exiss against tbe claim: and
may proceed, forthwith to collect the money by
due process of that Court; while a citizen of this
State, who is a creditor of the same debtor, who
has sued and obtained judgment iu the Courts of
this State, and who has the oldest judgment, is
not permitted to levy his fifa. but must stand by
and see the Northern merchant sell, possibly, the
whole property of the defendant, and receive the
full amount of his claim, and carry the money out
of the State, while our own citizen is left without
remedy.
Again, our merchants are generally it debted to
Northern merchants, and cannot pay, unless they
are permitted to collect from those who are in
debted to them. Under the proposed law, the
Northern merchant can still sue our merchauts
in United States Courts, and obtain judgment and
execution, arid sell their property; while our
merchants, who are citizens of this State, cannot
sue their debtors who are also citizens of
this State, in the United States Courts: but
must sue in the Courts of Georgia. When
they have obtained their executions iu our State
Courts, this bill, if it becomes a law, prohibits
them from levying on the property of defondants,
till Ist December, 1861. The Northern merchauts
may, therefore, ruin our merchants by selling
their property in the midst of a bank suspension,
when everything is down at the lowest figure ;
while our merchants are not permitted, by our
own laws, to collect a dollar, with which to meet
their indebtedness and save their property from
sale. \
Is this justice to our own citizens ? *8 this
what is meart by resistance to Northern aggres
tion ? Pass this law, and it cannot be doubt
ed, that the ensuing year will be distinguished as
one of an unusual amount of litigation. Creditors
desirous of making collections, known that they
canuot levy and collect by law till first December,
1861, will desire to put their claims in a condition
to enforce collections by law, as soon as possible,
after that time. They will, therefore, in nearly
all cases, put their claims iu suit, so as to obtain
judgments as soon as the law will permit.
I am of opinion that a relief bill eould scarcely
have been framed in a more objectionable sbapo
or have contained provisions which, iu their prac
tical operations, would produce more hardship
and gross injustice, than the bill herewith return
ed. Mach as I regret, at all timea, to differ from
the General Assembly, aud more especially on a
question of so much importance, a sense of duty
compels me to withhold my sanction from this
measure, in its present shape ; and, in the name
of those who must suffer by it, to protest against
its passage. Joseph E. Brown.
From Washington.
Washington, Nov. 27, 1860. —Several leading
Republicans are now here, and consultations have
been held with si veral prominent Southern men
as to the best remedy, if any, for the dangers
which threaten the couqtry. One proposition,
which seemed to meet with favor among the Re
publicans, was that Mr. Lincoln should disarm se
cession on account of his election, by announcing
his cabiuet so soon as the electoral vote shall have
beeu cast. It is suggested ihat this would fur
nish the conservative men of the South with an
effective weapon for the Union, provided the list
included three men from the South who com
manded the confidence of the whole country —for
instance, snch men as Scott of V ; ‘ginia, Graham
of North Carolina, and Sha kie of Mississippi. It
is believed that Mr. Lincoln would be perfectly
willing to do tl is, though unusual, if it would
pour oil on the troubled waters.
It is also said that on Tuesday or Wednesday of
next week an influectial member of the Republi
can party will offer resolutions in Congress, de
claring the rights of the several States in terms
which must be satisfactory to every Union-loving
man in the South, with the emphatic declrration
that this bill of rights the Republican party is
willing to embody iu the Constitution. Should
this be done, all excitement will subside in 48
hours, and reason will resume her sway, to the
chagrin and mortification of those who have la
bored so long and so earnestly to break up the
Confederacy.
It is certain that the Republican party, so far
as T it is represented by those who have arrived in
W ashington, is entirely willing, not only to do
full justice to the South, but to give every consti
tutional guaranty to the same. If disunion must
come, it appears that the South will be made to
shoulder the responsibility. Strong hopes are
expressed, to-day, that by some prompt action
next week, and by announcement of Mr. Lin
coln’s Cabinet, prior to the assembling of the
South Carolina Cor vention, the Union will yet be
saved.
Indian Troubles near Fort Kearnet.—Fort
Kearney, Nov. 28. —Two meu named Pope and
Funk, employees of Mr. Davison, about 17 miles
above here on the Platte, came in to-day and re
ported that tj party of fifteen Indians, supposed
Cheyennes, had run them from Elk creek yester
day. When near the road one Indian rode up to
the ox team Pope was driving, and snapped his
gun at him, then drew his lance. Pope drew his
pistol, but it snapped. Fuuk was on horseback
close by, and drew hbigsstol and shot the Indian.
Pope jumped on the horse, aud both men
escaped, leaving the wagon and team. The body
of Indians was at this time half a mile behind,
but they pursued them for some distance, when
Pope and Funk sought protection with a lurge
passing train, when the Indians slowly retreated.
As soon as the commanding officer got this
news he immediately ordered the dragoon com
pany stationed here into the saddle, but found that
all the wagons at the post were down the Platte
after wood. One has been sent for to carry the
provisions and forage. The company will start
this afternoon, and march to Davidson to-night,
and to-morrow morning they will go over to Elk
creek, and attack the camp of the Ind ans, if the
report is true. A large party of the Sioux and ,
Cheyennes came near the post, and into Kearney
city this morning. They state that they are from
the Republ can Fork, and are seeking the Pawnees.
The settlers and mail agents up tfie Platte are
very uneasy at the attitude the Indians have as
sumed, and anticipate an attack from them.
Tho Indians having heard that some of the
dragoon companies had left, and that the post at
Fort Kearney was to be broken up, have threaten
ed that as soon as this is doue .they intend to
wipe out every settlement ou the Platte.
Leavenworth, Nov. 30.—The Denver Express
of the 27th says that it is reported that whole
bands of Arapahoe, Cheyenne and Sioux Indians,
numbering from ten to fifteen thousand, are en
camped at Cotton Wood Springs annoying travel
lers and committing larcenies. A general war is
feared.
The Secession Question in California.—Advi
ces from San Francisco to Nov. 17th, state that
the people of California were waiting with deep
anxiety tor the Eastern news, showing the dispo
sition of the Southern States on the dissolution
question.
After hearing of Lincoln’s election, all political
animosities greatly moderated, the Republicans
as well as the Democrats seeming to be feurful ol
serious trouble from the present political condi
tion of the country.
The Republican illumination in San Francisco
in honor of Lincoln’s election was a complete
failure. Not fifty houses in the city responded to
the call of the Republican State Central Commit
tee to joiu iu a general illumination. Tho cause
of it was that the Republicans generally were
not in an exultaut mood.
The Sacramento Standard, organ of the Breck
inridge Democracy, assumes that the dissolution
of the Union is inevitable, and urges California
and Oregon to seriously consider the question of
organizing a separate Republic on tlie Pacific Coast.
The idea seems to obtain little sympathy, and is
denounced by a large portion of the press.
A most diabolical murder was committed iu
Sparta, Tenn., a few nights since. We did not
learn the names of the individuals who committed
the foul deed ; but heard that the name of the
murdered man was a Mr. Morgan, who kept a gro
cery in Sparta. Two or three men were arrested
on the charge of the crime.— McMinnville New

it would be a loson lost, at and an admonition unheeded, were
we to suffVr.'the death and virtues of a good man or woman to
pass uuchrontcleo. None who k..ew her. will deny that the
subject of this notice inerted this distinction : from her earliest
youth she wn amiable and good, and increase ol years brought,
onlv Increase of virtue. Graduating at the Madi-i it Fen.ale
Cos .ege in 1 -51, she was called at an early age, by the death of
her mother, to take charge of lu r.father’s household ; and veil
worthily did she discharge the difficult task devolved upon her.
For five years, with untiring patience and unwearied devotion,
she withstood the caprices and controled and guided the con
duct of her sisters—themselves ‘* too voung their loss to know,’’
but who can now appreciate the unselfish and motherly kind
ne.-s and forbearance of one who loved them well. A1 who
knew her loved her and th >se who knew her best loved her
most, for mo lest, and retiring In habit. It required more than a
convent on l acquaintance to understand and prize the lovely
traits of cbaacter : then, indeed, you • a-ped her to your heart
with an affection as deep and sincere as her claim to it w as great.
In that eventful epoch In woman’s life—her marriage—she
was most fortunate, and her sum of earthly happiness was
1 trg- ly Inert ased by her union with t>ne who lm ed and cher
ished her while living, and mourns her dead. She was a mem
b r ol the Methodist t’hurcli, and deeply imbued with a pious,
Christian spirit—her long illness was norne gently and uncom
plainingly. Her death was like her life—calm, peaceful, bap
py. Uuletlv, as the Infant falls Into slumber, she closed her
eyes upon the scenes of earth : the darkness ofthe vallev ofthe
shadow of death, was dispersed bv the splendor of God's throne,
which dawned u, on her mortal vision ere yet the spirit had
taken Its flight. *

tV The Oxygenated Bitters.— For years medical scl
once has been taxed and the skill ofthe physician exhausted In
the hope of discovering some remedy available to cure that
most distressing of all diseases—Dyspepsia, as well as Its long
train of evils under their various names.
No medicine existed which could speedily, permanently, ef
fectually and radically cure and expel these diseases from the
system until Dr. Green made known his discovery of the OXY
GENATED BITTERS. Such Is Its remarkable power and
peculiarity, that cases which for years have baffled the most
potent medicine and the highest professional skill, yield to this
remedy as readily as if the disease were but of a day's standing.
For all diseases of the Stomach and digestive organs, and for
General Debility it Is equally salutary and certain.
