the death of Lyman Roath, father of the
late David L. Roath. He died at Marmosa

QUERY.
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.

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.

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..

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.
