Millkdgevillk, Ga., Dec. 3rd, 1800. SENATE. 1 he Senate met according to adjournment, lion. John Billups, President, pro. tern, in the Chair. Granted leave of absence to the Secretary of the Senate, Frederick H. West, Esq., and appoint ed .1. A. Pringle, Esq., Secretary in his stead. By a vote of 33 to 40, the Senate refused to re consider the bill for the revisal of the Jury sys tem. Passed the hill to alter the law for the protection of the estates of orphans, so far as relates to the county of Franklin. The special order of the day was taken up, which was a House resolution to call on the Gov ernor for an explanation of the following words in his veto message, “Why is it that these gentle men (Bank otlicers) never take upon themselves to spend money to secure the passage of bills through the Legislature, except when it is desira ble to pass A Bank suspension bill ?” Mr. Harris, of Worth, hoped that there would he no objection to the pass: ge of the resolution, lie had understood that the Governor himself de sired the passage of the resolution. Mr. Lawton, of Chatham, could hardly think that I he Governor intended to charge bribery and corruption on any member of the Legislature. It would not be proper for him (Mr. L.) to express the feelings which he should entertaiu if such a charge were made. A brave man would always desire an opportunity of explanation of words that had given offence, even when conscious, in his own breast, of liaviug intended no disrespect, lie thought a brave people should extend every opportunity for explanation of words implying censure. Mr. Wallace, of Taylor, objected to tne resolu tion, because it assumed that the language did convey a charge of bribery ; whereas he did not believe these was a member of the Senate, who so thought. He ottered a resolution simply call ing on the Governor for the explanation of the objectionable words ; but at the request of vari ous Senators withdrew it. Mr. Harris, of Worth, thought the gentleman who had just spoken could very easily speak as he did, since he had voted against the hill. He had heard that the Governor had said that the horse was 13 feet high, and he would stick to it. lie wanted to give the Governor an opportunity so to do. He thought the characters of the mem bers of the Legislature ought to be like Caesar’s wife, above suspicion. Mr. Hill, of Troup, objected to another portion of the message, as well as the one under consid rution—that which represented the lobby as hav-* ing been crowded with Bank oflicers, soliciting tlm passage of the Bill. He had not, in all his acquaintance, more than two or three Bank Pre sidents : and if there were any of such oflicers here during the consideration, and at the passage of the bill, He did not know it. Mr. 11. said, for every Bank officer or Bank stockholder, that de sired the passage of that bill, there were 1,000 farmers and business men who desired its pas sage. This was apparent from the multitude of petitions from the latter class. Mr. Collier, of Fulton, said, as Chairman of the Bank Committee, he desired to reply to the charges of the Governor. Like the Senator from Troup, he also could say that he was acquainted hut with three Bank Presidents, one of them Pre sident of the Bank in his own city, and the other two Presidents of the G. It. It. and C. It. It. & Banking Companies. Neither of these ollicers, to his knowledge, had been here ; nor did he know of any other that hud been here while the bill was on its passage. He did not feel satisfied to have the veto message, containing such insinuations against members of the General Assembly, go out iu this way before the country, and in case satis faction was not rendered, he would vote to ex punge that message from the Journal. Mr. Briscoe, of Baldwin, thought the language of the Governor equivocal, unfortunate, and out of taste. He could* not think, however that any charge was intended. He thought the language needed explanation, but he did not like the reso lution, because it assumes in advance that the charge of bribery was intended, lie hoped that the Senator from Taylor (Mr. Wallace) would re new his substitute. Mr. Jones, of Newton, returned his thanks that in accordance with his request, the Seuate had postponed action until this morning. He did not believe that the Governor intended a charge; but was willing to have him called on for explanation. Mr. Wallace, of Taylor, renewed his substitute. MV. Harris, of Worth, considered the resolu tion oil'ercd as a substitute, as a begging resolu tion. Such a one he never would favor. Mr. Lenoir, ot Gwinnett, did not consider the language of the Governor ambiguous. He there fore preferred the original to the substitute. Mr. Seward, of Thomas, had voted for the post ponement of the resolution. On mature conside ration h# thought the language needed explana tion, and should accordingly vote for the resolu- tion. Mr. Ward, of Greene, as one of the Bank Com mittee, denied the charges contained in the Mes sage. Mr. liiley, of Lumpkin, rose considerably ex cited, and said that he had been at first opposed to the Bank bill, but on hearing the arguments in its favor had changed his opinion, and had voted for the bill. After he had left the chamber, he had been asked how much he had received to change his vote. He wished to say that he had received nothing. He wished the resolution spread on the journal for his own protection, and that of the other members of the Senate. The Veto Message had been bought up and sent all over the country, and one of the members of this body (looking to the Senator from Dawson,) had, he learned, bought a large number to circulate among his constituents. Mr. Summerour, of Dawson, (interrupting,) asked if he meant him. Mr. Riley said he did. Mr. Summerour denied the charge, saying that he had not circulated a single copy amonst the gentleman’s constituents. (The rest of the re marks of Mr. S. were inaudible to the Reporter.) The amendment of Mr. Wallace was lost. The yeas and nays were called on the passage es the original resolution—aud were yeas 85, nays 13. So the resolution was passed. Mr. Allred before giving his vote, explained. lie did not believe that the Governor intended any charge, and therefore, he should vote no. Mr. Riley said he had received no money, and therefore, should vote Y r es. Mr. Summerour thought that the Governor in tended no insult, and therefore, should vote No. The resolution of Mr. Seward, of Thomas, call ing on the Governor for information relative to the recent running of the Florida line. After some explanation on the part of Mr. S. the reso lution passed. Mr. Lawton, of Chatham, introduced a resolu tion, that the Governor appoint some proper per son to remove the remains of the late Commodore James Mclntosh, from the vault in Pensacola, to such place in Georgia as the nearest relatives may desire. Mr. L. explained that no monument was asked for, nor any thing that involved a large expendi ture of money. Commodore Mclntosh was a brave and distinguished citizen of Georgia ; but like many other citizens, who have given them selves to the public service, at his death he had left bis family entirely destitute. The resolution was passed. Adjourned to 3 o’clock, P. M. AFTERNOON SESSION. The whole afternoon was taken up iu the read ing of bills the ‘2nd time. A message was received from His Excellency to the Senate, stating, in effect, that he did not believe that any member of the Legislature had been guilty of bribery. He conveyed in the message a slight reflection on the House, which had been able to discover a meaning in the words of his message which the Senate had failed to discover. The message was received with the utmost good humor. , , . Adjourned till 9>£ o’clock to-morrow morning. HOUSE. Mr. Key, of Jasper, moyed to reconsider so much of the journal of Saturday as relates to the passage of the Retaliatory bill. The motion was lost. Mr. Brown, of Sumter, moved to reconsider so much of the journal of Saturday as refers to the passage of the bill to extend State Aid to Mark A. Cooper. Mr. B. made an able argument in favor of the repeal of this measure, lie took the broad ground that if Hon. Mark A. Coeper is en titled to $250,000 ofState Aid, he was entitled to the same—every citizen is entitled to it. He was opposed to this species of legislation. Where will it end V How much State Aid to private enter prises would be required to satisfy the demand? The yeas and nays were called on the motion to reconsider, and resulted—yeas 04, nays 57, so the motion to reconsider prevailed. To appropriate $35,000 to the Georgia Military Institute, &c. The Committee on-Military Affairs reported a substitute for the original bill, which was adopted iu lieu of the original bill. The whole of the morning was spent in discus sing the bill. Many amendments were offered, and the bill was so altered that its friends moved to re-refer the same to the Committee on Military Affairs. The House then adjourned until three o’clock, P. M. AFTERNOON SESSION. New Matter —Mr. Fain, of Gordon : To ap propriate $15,000 to the Middle Georgia Medical College, in Griffin. Mr. Howell, of Lowndes : To compel non-resi dents to pay a tax on lands lying in said county. Mr. Strickland, of Madison, oflered a series of resolutions expressive of his position on the questions of the day. Mr. Spravberry, of Catoosa : To relieve de faulters in Federal Courts. Mr. Humber, of Troup, offered a series of reso lutions expressive of the sentiments of the Gene ral Assembly on the questions of the day. A lengthy discussion ensued on the motion to print the same. The motion to print was lost. Mr. Fain, of Union : To incorporate the Coo sa Bank, in the town of , in the county of Union. Mr. Spravberry, of To authorize the Governor to enlist 10,000 vol nteers. Third Reading of House Bills. —To appropri ate $3,274 74 to John M. Wilhite of the county of Jackson. Mr. Mintz, of Jackson, who has introduced this same bill into every Legislature for the last four years, spoke in behalf of the bill. He said that this bill has passed three consecutive Legisla tures, aud has been three times vetoed by Govs. Johnson aud Brown. Mr. Mintz went into a very satisfactory explantation of the merits of the bill. Major Mintz deserves great credit in the advocacy of this measure through so long a series of de feats. He has advocated this bill with so much ardor that he is known at this point as “Major Wilhite.” S*On the call of the yeas and nays on the passage of the bill, the yeas were 47, nays 58. New Matter. —Mr. Lumpkin, of Clark : To rid the State of free negroes. Mr. Screven, of Chatham : To make the Govern or (for the time being,) and Messrs. A. J. Lawson of Burke, and I. L. Harris of Baldwin, Represen tatives of the State Stock in the Main Trunk Rail road. Mr. Barnes, of Richmond : To amend the lieu laws of this State. Mr. Vanover, of Terrell : To require the princi pal aud endorser of a note, bond, Ac., to be sued at the same time. Mr. Lockett, of Bibb : to repeal an Act abolish ing imprisonment for debt. House then adjourned. Y[yTELEGIt A l* 11. LATEST FROM HAVANA. New Orleans, Nov. 3.— The steamship Phila delphia has arrived, with Havana dates to Nov. 28. 1 Sugar was dull and quotations nominal.
