Milledgville, Dec. 6th. SENATE. The first business in order was the recommen dation of a bill to allow parties to collect any rate percent, interest on promissory notes that par ties may agree upon. Mr. Jlolt, of Muscogee, favored a reconsidera tion, and spoke at some length in favor. The motion was then put aud was lost. Mr. Briscoe, of Baldwin, Chairman of the Com mittee on Penitentiary, submitted the report.— Two hundred convicts-were reported as being in confinement. They reported adversely to the passage of the bill for the removal of the institu tion, introduced at the first part of the session by Mr. Alexander, of DeKalb. A motion to reconsider a bill to confer certain power upon the Inferior Courts of the several counties in this State was lost. New Matter. — A bill to make betting on elec tions a crime punishable with fine ami imprison ment, or both, at the discretion of the Court. A motion was made to postpone the above bill indefinitely ; on which motion the ayes and nays wore called, and resulted-—ayes f>o, nays f#2. Mr. Collier, of Fulton : A bill to compel juries, in certain cases, to state in their verdicts the amount of fines and length of imprisonment to be imposed upon those they try.

On motion of Mr. Atkinson, of Camden, the bill for the protection of the rights and liberties of the neople of Georgia, was made the special order for Saturday next. A biH to ynnrr Ftfbrttirrffy goTf’TTf’flie’ negroes of this State, Ac. This bill requires owners of plan tations and slaves to patrol their places once a week. Passed. The Senate then adjourned until 3 o’clock. AFTERNOON SESSION. The first, business in order was the reading of -House bills a third time. A bill to incorporate the town of Trenton, Dade county. Passed. A bill to extend aid to the Oglethorpe Medical College. Mr. Spalding, of Mclntosh, favored the passage of the bill in a few remarks. Mr. Holt, of Muscogee, opposed its passage. If we desired, be said, to educate young men for the medical profession, we should remember that $15,000 bad already been expended. Mr. Lawton, of Chatham, said, heretofore be had opposed local appropriations. Every Medical college in Georgia, which had sustained itself for a year, had had appropriations. A great many petitions bad been sent here asking the appropri ation ; others, desiring no impropriation. Both were signed by respectable gentlemen, lie should vote lor the bill. Mr. .Jones, of Newton, opposed the passage of the bill. He thought we had better educate our little ragged boys and girls. The ayes and nays were taken on the passage of the bill, and resulted —ayes 40, nays 02. So the bill was lost. • A bill to appropriate $14,000 to the Institution for the Blind at Macon. Passed.

Leave of absence was asked and obtained for several Senators for the balauce of the session.— So many have left and are leaving, that a very few will remain unless it is stopped. The Senate begins to look very thin. Any quantity of vacant seats are visible. The hour of adjournment hav ing arrived, the Senate adjourned until to-morrow o’clock. norsß. The bill for the pardon of Wm. A. Choice, of the county of Fulton, now under sentence of death for the crime of murder, and to transfer him to the Lunatic Asylum, was taken up. As is well known in the State, the legislature at its last session passed a bill to pardon Mr. Choice; Gov. Brown vetoed the bill, and the Leg islature refused to pass the same over the Gover nor's veto. The case was then taken before the Supreme Court, which decided against cer tain points of Choice’s case. This bill is now brought before tbo Legislature, because the friends of the bill expect to pass it over the Gov ernor’s veto. They also have brought forward additional testimony on the point of Choice’s in sanity. The bill was taken up, and without dis cussion, passed. Ayes 75, nays 54. The next bill in order was ‘to appropriate $35,- 000 to the Georgia Military Institute, and to pro vide for the education of young man from each county therein, Ac. Most of the morning was spent in the discus sion of the merits of the bill; various amend ments were proposed, and the bill was lost, by aves 43, nays 88. “The House then adjourned until 3 o’clock P. M. \ AFTERNOON SESSION. Mr. Hartridge, of Chatham, from the Special Committee on that subject, made a report and in troduced a resolution, ottering negociations on the subject of the settlement of the boundary line between Georgia and Florida, lie sustained his resolution by a succinct and ample statement of the legislation on the subject, and said that Georgia should protect those who had taken out grants of laud under her law, and hoped the mat ter would be re-opened. 1 Mr. Screven, of Chatham, asked the consent of the House to take up a bili introduced by him to appoint an Adjutant General in this State, to drill the Volunteer Companies, keep an account of the arms of the State, &c. Mr. S. spoke for about twenty minutes, in an earnest, impassioned and very elequeut manner, in favor of the hill. We were agreably surprised to hear Mr. S. He has, heretofore, been considered one of the working members, and not a Speaker ; but his speech to.-day places him in a position as an orator and a far seeing statesman, second to very few in the House. He aroounced himself in favor of secession, and said that if Georgia in tended to do anything at all, it # was now time to prepare. If she expected to do nothing, it was time to show it. - The bill was passed by a large majority. Tqejaill to simplify, and curtail pleadings and practice at law (in accordance with a late decision of the Supreme Court,) was passed. The remainder of the afternoon was spen u reading bills the second time. Georgia Cassimeres A MOTHER supply of these excellent GOODB from the Ivy Mills.

Washington, Dec. 6.— To-day the Speaker’s warrants for pay of the members of the House were refused at the Treasury for want of funds. Ihe warrants will be formally protested to-mor row. About two thousands dollars only have been paid to the members since the commence ment of the session. 1 lie proceedings of Congress show a stern reso lution on the part of the not to yield to any proposed compromise, and the antagonism to the North daily increases. It is improbable that that any public business of importance will be transacted until tlio all absorbing question of compromise or secession will be settled. SHIPMENTS OF SPECIE SOUTH.
