Dear Republican: Will you please ask some of your old citizens if the correspondent of tho Consti tutionalist from Atlanta is not the same Triptolumus Yallersteed who once kept a little dry goods shop under tho Globe Hotel in this city several years ago? He has something to say about “ this Express Agent and so-called Governor.” Will you ask some discriminating philanthropist how much better is a counter-jumper,selling tape by the yard and pins by the dozen, than an Express Agent? and how much superior a briefless pettifogger is to a “so-called Gov ernor.” But Triptolumus has risen to boa lawyer —become one of tho aristocracy—is received into what is called good society in Augusta ; so he can afford to look down upon Gover nors, Mayors, anl such trash, though he can never hope to attain shell positions himself. Luck and brains are both wanting in him. Quii.p. [From tho Atlanta Constitution. The Georgia Legislature. Atlanta, September 25. SENATE. Mr. Wooten moved to reconsider the action of lhe Senate on the bill taxing pis tols and bowie-knives. Agreed to, and the bill was indefinitely postponed. Mr. Griffin, of the 21st, moved to recon sider the bill lost yesterday, amending the Constitution by striking out the 10th sec tion. Motion to reconsider prevailed. A bill to elect Representatives to Con gress. Tho Senate took up the bill to authorize Justices of the Peace to have jurisdiction in all cases except those punishable by im prisonment in the penitentiary or death. The bill was referred to a committea of three, with instructions to report to-morrow. Mr. Fain moved to substitute the County Court bill for the whole. Lost. The committee appointed to act with a committee of the House, in reference to ad journment, reported that they had agreed upon the 6th of October as the time. The report was agreed to. A bill to confirm tho Ordinary of the city of Savannah, to authorize the Savannah, Skidaway and Seaboard Railroad to con struct a railway extension. A bill to grant a charter to the Universal Life Insurance Company. Lost. A bill requiring all public officers to be at their offices certain hours during the day. Referred to the Judiciary Committee. A bill to relieve banks of certain pains and penalties. Passed. A/bill defining the liabilities of Fire Insu rance Companies. Passed. A bill authorizing administrators, execu tors, etc., from other States to sell lauds in this State. Passed. The committee reported that the Governor has funds to pay off the members till the 6th instant, and if desirable each Senator can receive §l5O to-morrow. A bill to incorporate the Ocean Bunk of Brunswick. A motion to adjourn till nine o’clock to morrow morning, Passed. Senate adjourned, Mr. Holcombe having the floor. HOUSE. Mr. Scott, of Floyd, moved to reconsider so much of the proceedings of yesterday as relates to the passage of the bill to repeal the 13th article of the Constitution, to re move the Capitol to Milledgeville, Ga. In support of his motion, he said : 1 have moved to reconsider lhe action of the House in reference to the removal of the Capjtol, not because I oppose the removal if the people desire it, but for the purpose of giving the people au opportunity to speak out on the question. Our State is just emerging from a State of chaos aud despotism to that of order arid civil government. Tbe whole country is in a political foment. A powerful enemy is watching every act of Georgia, and charging that she is disloyal and attempting to break up the government of the State. We are on the eve of the most .important election ever held in this country We should not com plicate it with issues of this sort. There is too much at stake. The new Constitution, which we have sworn to support, locates the Capitol here. The Convention which framed it made a contract with the city of Atlanta to furnish a Capitol and all suitable buildings for the General Assembly. This Legislature, by an almost unanimous vote, endorsed that contract. The Building Committees of both Houses waited on the City Council. The Council submitted to these committees a plan for a new State House which it pro posed to build for the use of this Assembly. The committees accepted the proposition and reported their action to their respective Houses, and the report was adopted almost without a dissenting voice. Upon the faith of our action, and with the full endorsement of this body, the City Council of Atlanta entered into a contract with Kimball & Co., for the new Opera House, now under construction, in which contract the city stipulates to pay Kimball & Co. §70,000 lor the use of said building for ten years. And in consequence of ibis arrangement the whole original plan was changed so as to adopt it to our use. The citv is under bond to pay this money. So if we now back down can’t the city look to the State for damages. 1 am not opposing the removal if the people want it. They have got ten years to reflect on aud will have ample time to in struct their Representatives. Mr. O’Neal thought there was nothing political in the question. . It ought to be submitted to the people and voted on. I voted for the Constitution, but was opposed to this part of it. When this Constitution was voted on there were three thousand of her citizens who wore disfranchised —now they can vote. Mr. Bryant found himself one time with the gentleman from Floyd (Mr. Scott). He was in favor of the reconsideration. This city is destined to be the centre of Georgia. The idea of going down to this one-horse town of Milledgeville for the Capitol of the great State of Georgia. Milledgeville may be good as far as it goes, but it does not go far enough. The city of Atlanta has made arrangements to give more room than they have in the building at Milledgeville. It is due the State of Georgia that she should permit the Capitol to remain at this point. Mr. Shumate made a concise speech, re viewing the arguments in his clear and con vincing style in favor of reconsideration. Mr. McCullogh spoke against reconsidera tion. Mr. Harper, us Terrell, was opposed to re consideration. lie introduced the bill, and was still in favor of its passage. He had no complaints to make against the city or citi zens of Atlanta. He wanted the question submitted to the people. If the people of the city want to hold the Convetion responsible, let them do so. Mr. Darnell called for the previous ques tion. The yeas and nays were required, and resulted —yeas 50, nays 87. Motion to reconsider was lost. The Special Committee to investigaie the bill for the relief of P. C. McCreary, recom mend that the Auditor of the State Road be authorized to pay said McCreary one hun dred dollars per quarter. The Committee of the Whole House took up the General Appropriation bill and con sumed the session in discussing it. House adjourned. —•• • —What railway charges always are— Fare enough. From Atlanta. ELIGIBILITY AGAIN. Report of Committee on State of the Republic. * APPROPRIATION BILL. Democratic Address. Special to the Augusta Republican.] Atlanta, September 26. In the Senate, the amendments of the House to the Homestead bill were unani mously disagreed to. The bill making burglary at night pun. ishable with imprisonment in the Peniten tiary, for uot less than five nor more than twenty years, passed—the former penalty being death. The bill reported by the Special Commit tee, to organize a Criminal Court to try offences not punished by imprisonment in the Penitentiary or death, passed. Tbe bill provides that such cases shall be tried in each town incorporated in the Militia Dis trict. Efforts will be made to reconsider it on Monday. The bill declaring persons of color ineli gible to office in this State was made Che special order for Monday. The Committee on the state of tbe Repub lie in the House made a lengthy report. The concluding sentence says: “Protection of person and property is the paramount duty of government, and shall be impartial and complete.” The report was signed by all of the Committee. Thu majority of the committee on the case of R. A. Fleming reported in favor of appro priating §2,280.27 to the executors. The minority say that the seizure of said money by Governor Brown was unauthorized and in violation of the law, and that it was done before the secession of the State, aud should not be paid. The minority report was adopted. J. Smith, member from Telfair, who was recently elected, has been qualified. The Appropriation bill was resumed. The section in reference to the pay of new mem bers was finally settled by granting pay from the date of the passage of the ineligibility resolution. A lengthy address from the Chairman of the Central Democratic Executive Commit- tee appears in this evening’s Intelligencer. It says it speaks the views of all the other States on the questions of the day. J. L. Worth, Cashier of the National Park Bank, and Gen. Meade, have returned from the North. Washington Items- Washington, September 26.—The Dele gation from the Alabama Legislature, hav ing neglected to bring an authenticated copy of lhe resolution under which they were act ing, will wnit its arrival before officially visiting the President. Governor Smith is with the party by the request of the Legislature, to advise aud support the delegation. He has no official functions to perform here in connection with tl.c application for troops. He is of opinion, however, that tbe action of the Legislature, though unusual in form, meets the require ments of the Constitution in the matter of securing Federal aid for Alabama. He does not fully sympathize with the Legislature in its call for additional troops, and expresses his confidence in his own ability, by civil machinery, to maintain the peace of the State. lie said that the people earnestly desire peace, and that he has assurances, from men of both parties, of support in his efforts to that end. There is some disorder on the line of the Tensas river, and North of Mobile, but elsewhere throughout the State there are no iiidicatious of disturb ances and no disposition to resist lhe law, and in no other portion of the State has any officer, who lias been regularly installed in office, been resisted in the performance of his duties. The Governor is apprehensive that, during the excitement of the coming election, imprudent parties may commit acts which will lead to serious disturbances, un less restrained by some assurance fro-n the President that they will be promptly put down by Federal authority. Beyond this assurance, Governor Smith is inclined to think that no Federal interference is neces sary at present.. Major Bowen and Aiderman Richards have sued the Evening Express for slander, claiming §IO,OOO. It is stated that a consultation between the President and Schofield resulted in a determination to reinforce both Sherman and Meade. The Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows will meet next year in San Francisco. Admiral Semmcs passed here for Now York to-day, to superintend the publication of his new book. McCulloch has submitted the question to Evarts whether officers unable to take the prescribed oath are entitled to pay for past service, and whether relief from political disabilities is retro-active. Revenue for the week, $8,136,000. General Sibley informs Howard that he is investigating the Camilla riot. Howard had a long interview with the President to-day—his first visit for many months. Governor Warmouth, of Louisiana, has vetoed the negro equality bill. ■' 1 " —— Cablegrams. London, September 26.—After a sharp fight in Santander, the rebels took refuge in the fleet. The rebels are particularly strong on the seaboard. Two regiments sent against Cadiz, it is reported, have joined the insurgents. St. Petersburg, September 26. —The Russian Alexandria K’ewski,with the grand duke of Alexandria aboard, has been wrecked. Paris, Sept. 26. —Spanish news favors the Government. St. Petersburg dispatches, just received, announce the safety of the duke. The crew also will probably be saved. “The Irish People” Declares for Grant aud Colfax. Philadelphia, September 23.—The Zmi People, the oldest and most influential of the Irish newspapers of this country, aud hith erto strongly Democratic, declares thia morning for Grant and Colfax, and pro nounces unqualifiedly against, not only Seymour and Blair, but Hoffman. This journal, which exercises almost a controlling influence over the Irish vote of America, is under the editorial direction of Johu O’Mahoney, of Fenian Fame. In a brilliant and exhaustive article the reasons are summed up why Irish-Ameri cans should not vote the Democratic ticket, and tbe conclusion established that tbe only hope of Ireland lies in the friends of freedom. The Irish Republican Club is in success ful working order in Now York city, and another one will be organized in Philadel phia this week. The letter of Gen. Dix, published in the New York papers of yesterday, was written to John J. Cisco, a leading aud influential Democrat of New York, who has also de clared for Grant. Louisiana Legislature- New Orleans, September 26.—Governor Warmouth, to-day, vetoed the civil rights bill, raising thereby a perfect storm of de nunciation from the negroes, at what they term his ingratitude and treachery to them and the Republican party. The session, of the House, after the re ception of the veto, was occupied chiefly by the colored members in its denunciation one threatening Warmouth with impeach ment, and repudiating him as no longer a •ember of tbe Republican party. Tho white members of the Legislature aro con fident of sustaining the veto. The following is tho veto message : To the Llonorable Speaker and Members of the House of Representatives : I return to tho House of Representatives «n act to protect all persons in their public and civil rights without my signature, for the following reasons, to-wit: The rights and privileges enumerated in tho first sec tion of this bill and sought to bo enforced thereby are fully and explicitly recognized and established in the Constitution of the State. Even a foreigner not a citizen lias the game right to travel and be entertained as a citizen, and there is nothing in our ju risprudence which makes distinction on ac count of race or color, except in so far as it relates to slavery. Tho organic law of the land gives to a’l persons perfect equality of civil and political rights, in cluding the privilege of enforcing those rights in ths courts, and employing all the legal remedies which have heretofore been found requisite to secure equal rights to all persons Tho means, however, proposed in the -Ith section of the bill for entorcing those rights are, in my judgment, not merely novel and unprecedented, but impracticable and pernicious. It seeks to make that a crime which has never, to my knowledge, been so considered in those communities where lhe highest regard is paid to the personal rights of men. There is, and always ought to be, a broad line ol demarcation fixed between a crime and the breach of obligations growing out of civil contracts, and we demoralize the public conscience and contuse its conceptions of right and wrong when we seek to obliterate so evident u distinction. Our statute book is filled already with crimi nal laws that are never enforced, and never will be until public opinion rises to their respective levels. The history of the world is full of examples of this sort, where acts notin themselves criminal have been vainly declared so, and, in this way, a levity of feel ing in regard to real crime is produced. Wc relapse into the legislation of a less enlight ened period when we try to convert an act which is properly a question of civil damages into an offence against the peace and dignity of the State, and it ought Io be carefully borne in mind that we cannot hope, by legis lation, to control questions of personal association, much less can we hope to force on those who differ from us in our views of what is humane, or courteous, or christian-like, natural forbearance and kind ness, and the nobler belief in the brother hood of man, must spring from a higher source than the fear of punishment. They can never be forced to grow by pains and penalties again. So far as railroads and steamboats are concerned, it must be borne in mind that the regulation of commerce be tween the several States was wisely confided under tho Constitution of tbe United States to the National Congress. The object of this grant of power was clearly to prevent the confusion which would arise froth con flicting legislation on such s ibjects by the different contiguous States and the wisdom of the provision appears more clearly every day, ns means of transportation, are increased and improved by the second and third sections of this act.' No distinction is clearly made between railroads and steam boats whose routes are wholly within this State, and those whose routes are beyond. Os course criminal juris diction can not go beyond our State lines. In this respect, the act seems impolitic and liable to produce un necessary confusion and litigation forex perimental legislation of this kind, for which the sanction of no successful precedent can be produced, and more unfavorable occasion than the present could hardly be in augurated. In the midst of a most ex acting political campaign, at a time when the passions, animosities and resent ments consequent upon a great war and attendant upon great and sudden changes in affairs, are roused to the highest pitch of intensity, and when the prejudices regarding race arc inflamed to tho utmost, it is here proposed to enforce the penal remedies which is practically class legislation, and to maintain and confirm class destructions. The effect, in my judgement, of such an act, would be to defeat, rather than to promote, the ends apparently had in view by the author of the bill. The barriers of race, in stead of being thereby removed, would be increased in height and breadth, and firm ness and strength. So long as these bar riers are maintained, so long will be de ferred the era of peace, order and prosperity in the State, to which mutual har mony and good will are always es sential ; and so long will the rights of the lately enfranchised linger in the condition of doubt and insecurity. The prejudices upon which these barriers are fouuded have no foundation in reason or nature, and will surely give way to the softening influences of time, unless they are cotßtanlly fretted into activity. lu the meantime, any person, colored as well as white, is equally secured by the Constitution in the enjoyment of political and civil rights, and in his remedy for their infringement— the courts. To all alike the same rule obtaiua in national and State courts. The judges of the State courts and the officers are all ena bled to depend upon all citizens alike— colored and white alike constitute juries. Those of the lately enfranchised who are wise ami reflecting, will not ask for more. They will rather deprecate a kind of legis lation which, instead of advancing their present condition, only renders the enemies of their race more bitter and determined in their hostility, and furnishes them weapons whereby to assail the rights which the colored men have already acquired. In returning this bill without my signature, it is hardly neces sary for me to say that 1 am prepared, so far as lies in my province and power, to en! force the new Consitution as it exists. 1 find the act in question to be, in my best judgment, unnecessary and unwise, and for the reasons I have stated calculated to de- t moralize _ tlio public eouaoience and in tensify distinctions, which will surely yield i to the power of time and the growth of j more catholic views of our personal rela . turns, it becomes no loss dearly my duty to i decline to sign it.
