Thera has long been great complaint of the manner in which newa reaches the public, the de lays to favor speculation, and the reck less statements that are made. It is probable that in a short time the pro provincial press can make much more satisfactory arangements for their newa than at present in force. Miilodgeville Letter. Mu lzdoevillk, 9th Nov., 1866. Editor Daily JYess : The great event of to-day was the rejection of the Constitutional Amendment by the Gen eral Assembly of this* Slate. In the Senate, Mr. Strozier moved to postpone a consideration of the Report of the Committee, to whom the matter had been referred, to some future day— said report in the meantime to be priuted. This was amended so as to put the resolution recommended by the Commit-., tee, on its passage —Mr. Moore moving the amendment — and thus passed. The resolution was then adopted by*a unani mous vote. In the House, there were, as you have seeu, two votes against the resolution, or in favor of the Constitu tional Ameudmeut. The report of the Committee—the gist of which is in the telegraphic synopsis—is a very able document, and is from the pen of Major Moses, of Columbus. Boiled down, the argument is this : If we’re a State we can do as we please, and we don’t please to play the dog about this thing ; if we're not a State, it is a matter that touches us not. The dilemma is a shrewd one, the argument short, sharp, and de cisive. Very little interest was mani fested about the matter—not halt as much as iu a divorce case that has been battled over for two days, hand-running, in the Senate—it being taken as a matter of course it should go by the board. So far, on the relief theme, the Legis lature has stood by the landmarks of the law—a stand for which, if continued, people will, however they may now tem porarily suffer, in the long run tliauk them. A bill to repeal the law of judg ment lien has been much contested, but is now defeated, and a consideration refused. Hon. Geo. T. Burnes, of Richmond, is now and has been for some days at his post of duty—as cordially greeted, omniverousty industrious, and as om nipresent as ever. Bill Arp has not, as yet, aniv-ed, but is daily looked for, his abilities for hard work being on a par with his great powers as a satirist. The news of the Northern elections was watched for here with great interest, and as the first dispatches seemed to pro mise a Radical defeat, tidings of the final result were doubly distasteful. Some of the weaker brethren here are lamentably atraid that Congress, so called, will, at its next session do away entirely with the State government, and regulate everything ala territory. But no fears. We are in the hands ol a mightier Master than ever trod upon the floor of the White House or made the halls of the Capitol resound with his voice. “ Pluck," says the old Ger man war-song that has been thundered to the air at every camp fire on the Rhine—‘ Pluck trill win." A stiff front, no untimely concessions, square up in the stirrups and not yield one sin gle inch where we have the ghost of a liberty of action, is the policy of the day. Bow to the inevitable, of course, but how base to make that “ inevitable" for ourselves. Now that the Amend ment is rejected, what will those promi nent men do whose backbone became in*its presence as water, and whose tremulous advice was “ somehow or somehow £lse” to gulp the bill ? Out upon the advice—the Legislature has spurned it, and tlfb people will spew such ill counsellors out. S. D. Reported Specially for the Daily- Tress. Georgia Legislature.

A lady correnpondent »ends the At lanta Iktrllujemxr tha following account hi the noble manner in whteh our gal lant dead have been honored by the hand* of fair women. It will be found worthy of perusal: Mr. Editor: In noqg of the late pa pers have I noticed aTjescription of the dedication of the ilesaoa Confederate Cemetery, and I am not willing that -t|» country at large should remain in ignorance of the great and good work which has just been accomplished by the noble woman oh Georgia, though 1 had hoped eome abler pen than mine Would have assumed the pleasing task of chronicling their patriotic deeds. In May last, the “ Women of Resaca’’ sent forth an appeal to the State, re questing- aid in gathering up and in terring in one spot the remains of those who had fallen in the battle of Resaca 14th and 15th of May, 1864 ; and about the first of Aiguri they had received Contributions enough to commence the work and give out the contract for bn vy ing the dead. The work then begun has been prosecuted with so much vigor that, on the 25th of October, the ceme tery, though not entirely completed, was ready for dedication. All the dead, three hundred and seventy six, have been brought in and interred ; neat and' tasteful headboards at every grave, bearing the name and command of the deceased, as far as ascertainable—but the majority have simply the sad in scription : “ Unknown, C. S. A ” The grounds, by nature beuu-iful, are artistically laid off, and enclosed by a handsome lence, with large and massive gates, spanned by arches. The ceme tery is situated on the battle-field, two miles above Resaca, very near the rail rosd ;. aud siipuuuding it oo'aW sides are Bills atilT frowning with breastworks, defending which these gallant men fought and fell three years ago. On the mpruing of the 25th, I, with a number of other visitors, was present at the dedication services of this bcauti ful city,.of the dead. The day was most propitious to the occasion, balmy and cloudless; and the deep blue of the Oc tober sky, and the brilliant coloring of tjhe October leaves, were' reflected in tbe rippling brpok which winds through tie Ijo.sfcr pars ot the cemetery. Qu the bank of this brook, on a slight eminence, ■was,erected an exquisite evergreen tom’ pl& Had' our cause been success! ul, from its dome would have floated the battle-flag under whose folds these dead heroes had fought and died. But as “Fate with pitiless hand has furled” forever those colors, airuran waved above them her blood red banuere, and from her fading groves shed over the bier of each sleeping martyr a pall more gorgeous, more honorable, and more appropriate than any sad memento of a lost and yielded cause. So, as no Southern cross, though even furled and shrouded, could be raised here, tbe little temple had twined among its festoons of evergreens and -white flowers these exquisite lines : “Geutly we lay them underneath the sod. And leave them with their fame, their country, aud their God. Almost every State of the late Con federacy is represented there; each State in a separate plat, and all circling around the Unknown. In the centre of this lot for the nameless dead is reared a mound, surrounded by cannon balls, upon whose summit is erected a simple wooden cross, bearing the in scription, “To the Unknown Dead.” This, 1 am informed, is soon to be dis placed for one of granite, the generous gift of Messrs. Meador & Tumlin, of Stone Mountain. To every State there was an appro priate motto attached. To Tennessee, ■‘Their names are bright on Fame’s proud sky.” To Georgia, ‘-They sleep beneath their native sky.” To Missis sippi, ‘‘Peace to the brave.” To Ala bama, her own signification, “Here we rest.” To the Kentuckians, “Rest, warriors, rest.” Among the latter, I noticed a grave upon whose headboard was marked Charley Gryley, and was informed he was a Kentucky youth of sixteen, and some gentle hand had placed above the hoy warrior who slept so far from home, a beautiful tablet, bearing the touching line, “Somebody’s darling slumbers here.” Among this “ Citadel of Graves” I was particularly attracted by five which lay side by side and representing almost as many States. The first as you ap proached bore the name of a Floridian, and a floral offering upon his lowly mound brought to mo a breath from the “ Land ol Flowers” he had left be fore. The next was an Arkansian, and in an evergreen wreath were wound the words “ Over the river.” Next to him lay one from the “ Lone Star State,” and a beautiful emblem of his native land, composed of arborvitm, was at tached to the headboard. There were two Louisianians, whose graves were connected by an evergreen garland, and the word “Exiled” thereon. When Louisiana “ Claimed from war his richest spoils, The ashes of her bravo,’’ a brutal order denied them the right of sepulture in their own soil, and a sister State receives them. Such a sentiment was woven in to the motto which first gl-eeted the eye as you entered the grounds. Immediately opposite the en trance was erected n large evergreen arch, with the inscription: “ Georgia ruooives into her bosom Tho fallen sons of hor sister States.” To the right, a similar aich with these lines: ■. ’“ Our noble army of martyrs— They died for the land they could not,save.” In tho centre of the grouuds was erected tho speaker’s stand. The offici ating ministers were Rfov. Mr. John Jones, of Griffin, and Rov. Mr. William Rivers of Cave Impressive ad dresses were delivered, and everything paosgd oil' in a most pleasing manner. Mujor Wallace, the obliging Superin tendent of the road, and who I under eland has been tanch interested in th# undertaking, and that day allowed an extra train from Dalton, and there wa# an Assembly present on the occasion. We tetnaiued iu this "bivouac of (he dead’’ till late in the afternoon ; then as we slowly moved out of sight, t watched the sum's red ray# quivering among tjie white bead boards, or resting g*®tly upon ihaic. evergreen decorations, and contrasting the peaceful scenes before me with tbe terrible drama enacted on this very spot two years ago. Now “Tbs neighing trOo\>, the flashing ilade, Tha bugle's stirring blast; Tha ebitrga, tha dreadful cannonade, The di# and (bout are past, , Nor war’s wtW note, nor glory’s pent, Shall thrill with jioree delight, Those breasts that never more may feel The rapture of the fight. “Bost on, embalmed and nalntod dead, Dear as tbe blood ye gave; No impious footsteps here shall tread, The herbage of your grave. Nor shall your glory be forgot, While Fame her record keeps ; Or Honor points tbe hallowed spots, Where Valor proudly sleeps. Power of a Good Man’s Life. —The beauty of a holy life, says Chalmers, con stitutes the most eloquent and effective persuasion to religion, which one human being can addresss to another. We have many ways of doing good to our fellow creatures, but none so efficacious as lead ing a virtuous, upright, aud well-ordered life. There is an energy of moral suasion in a good man’s life, passing the highest efforts of the orator’s genius. The seen but silent beauty of holiness speaks more eloquently of God and duty than the tongdes of men and angels. 1-iet parents remember this. The best inheritance to jeave a child is a virtuous example, a legacy of hallowed remembrances and associations. The beauty >of holiness beaming through the life of a'hjved rela tive or friend,is more effectual to strength en such as do stand in virtue’s ways, and raise up those that are bowed down; than precept, command, entreaty, or wurrnug. Christianity itself, I believe, owes by far the greater part of its moral power, not to the precepts or parables of Christ, but to his own character. The beauty of that holiness which Is enshrined in the. four brief biographies of the man of Nazareth, has done more, and will do more, to regenerate the world, and bring in an everlasting righteousness, than all the other agencies put together. It has done more to spread his religion 1 in the wgrld, than all that has ever been written on the evidences of Christianity. MARRIED. At Warronton, on the Ist of Novcmbor by tho Her. R. W.
