THE LEGISLATURE. Got. Brown, in hi* late letter on re construction, aars: It onlj remains for me to add, that I consider it the duty of the Governor of Georgia to call the Legislature together without delay, and to recommend the passage ot au act calling a convention of the people of this State, to so change onr State Constitution as to provide tor universal suffrage in conformity to the measure which has passed Congress, known as the Sherman amendment; and to provide for the early election oi a Legislature which will adopt the Con stitutional Amendment in accordance with said requirement. We now have the assurance of Congress in the pass age ot this lull, that this shall settle the question of our admission. We shall never got better terms. Let us comply with them, and be ready to be repre sented in the next Congress as soon as possible. I respectfully suggest that the people of the several counties of the State who favor the proposed action, hold public meetings, with as little delay as possible, mid urge upon the Governor to convene the legislature and recommend them to take prompt action. The Governor and Legislature were elected before the Con stitutional Amendment was proposed, and 1 respectfully submit that it is their imperative duty, in the present condi tion of the country, to take the neces sary steps to refer this question to the people at the ballot box. The most ap propriate mode of doing this, is to order an election for delegates to a Conven tion, to act upon the proposition now submitted by Congress. This they can not with propriety refuse, if the people demand it. Let the people speak. The citizens of Atlanta will hold n meeting on this subject to-morrow ; and several of our citizens have suggested such a meeting of the citizens ot this County at ari early day. It is well that some action should be taken, and ii the people want prompt action,the best way to get it is to hold County meetings and give public expression to their views. In connection with this subject we give the following list of persons affect ed by the bill, which will be of interest at this time. 1. All persons who. before the war, were members of Congress or officers of the United States and took the oath to support the Constitution of the United States and afterwards engaged in the rebellion. 2. All persons who, prior to the war. were executive, legislative, or judicial officers of the State and took the like oath, and engaged in the rebellion. This embraces Governors, members of the Legislature, and judicial officers, from a Judge ot the Supreme Court down to a Justice of the Peace, who, at any time, held the office and took the oath and afterwards engaged in the re bellion. Who, then, are not excluded ? 1. No one is excluded because he held an office tinder the Confederate States from President down, if he does not fall within one of the excluded classes above spectlied. The simple fact that ho was a Confederate Senator or a Confederate General, or that he took an oath to support the Constitution of the Confederate States, does not exclude him. 2. No State or county officer is ex cluded on account of his having held the office and taken the oath and engaged in the rebellion, if he were not an ex ecutive, legislative, or judicial officer, t. eref ire, n -.flier a lawyer, sheriff, clerk, tax co.lector, receiver, county treasurer, coroner, surveyor, constable, or road commissioner is excluded. 3. As no man under twenty one years of age. when the war began, held any such office as disqualified, and none of them took the oatli to support the Con stitution of the United States during the war, and as the war commenced nearly six years ago, no man in Geor gia under twenty seven years of age can be excluded. 4. officers are not excluded. b. she whole mass of our people who fall within none ot the excluded classes above mentioned, are free from the dis qualification, and may vole and hold any office in the State without regard to the part they took in the war. Ukiversity of tiif. South. —The Trustees of this institution recently held a special meeting at Montgomery, at which it wag determined to open a school for boys at University Place, to the control and direction of which the best talent attainable in the country will be secured, and every arrange ment made to make it in the fullest sense worthy of tbe name which it will bear of the University High School, prepared to furnish a thorough and judi cious training for advancement into higher classes and schools of the Uni versity which it is intended afterwards to establish. The only present need is the erection of a few plain buildings, and Bishop Quintard will visit the different dioceses lor the purpose of raising the funds required. Otey Hall, at Scwaune, which was erected by Bishop Quintard as a mission and training school, has been donated by bim to the uses of the proposed school, and accepted. Bishop Wilmer has taken a lively interest in the enterprise, and it is hoped the basis will soon be laid for an institution which will fulfill the design of the projectors of tlie University, whose completion was inter rupted by the events of the last few years. —The rice crops in China have been greatly injured by floods, and much suf fering prevails among the people. Got. Brown’* Letter. The New York Harold thus deals with Governor Browe’s late Reconstruc tion letter: We published some extmeta yester day from a letter from fix Governor Joseph E. Brown, of Georgia, pre pared- for circulation in the South on the subject of reconstruction ami the politianl situation of the Southern States. They are marked by pood sense and sound advice, and they express substun tially the views we have been urging all along upon the Southern people. Tjiey give ns a ray of hope that light is about to break in upon the South as to its real situation and the folly of resisting the will and iw>wer of the North. It other lead ing public men ot the rebel Slates will follow Governor Brown's course recon struction may be consummated within a short time. . Mr. Brown says“lf we re)ect the terms proposed lu the Sherman bill, I confess I see uo hope for the future. Should we accept them I trust the ex ample of Georgia may he followed by other States, and that this vexed ques tion may soon be permanently settled upon the best terms which we will ever be able to get. I am aware of the rapidity of the changes which we are required to make, and of the natural prejudices which our people entertain against negro suffrage; but we should not forget that in yielding to an inevit able necessity these people were raised among us and naturally sympathize with us. Their conduct during the war proved this. If, then, we treat them kindly, pay them their wages promptly, and in all respects deal justly by them, we shall seldom have cause to complain of their refusal to respect our wishes or consult our interest at the ballot box. 1 ’ He therefore urges upon the Governor to call the Legislature of the State to gether without delay, and to recommeud the passage of au act calling a conven tion to change the State constitution, so as to provide for universal suffrage, in conformity with the Sherman Bill, and also to provide for the early election of a Legislature which will adopt the Con stitutional Amendment, in accordance with the requirement of snid Bill. This is the only way of salvation for the South. The people of that section have lost already opportunities of being restored, through their obstinaev, igno rance and bad feeling. They might be now enjoying all the privileges of Ame rican citizens had they not stupidly re jected the terms offered. They lost sight of their powerless condition and that they were completely at the mercy of their conquerors. They foolishly imagined that the North would concede their claim to political rights which they had really forfeited hy the war. Not understanding either their own situation, or the temper of the public mind at the North, they showed their teeth when they ought to have bowed their heads in submission to the fate they had brought upon themselves. This had a bad effect upon the people of the loyal States. The politicians saw what was taking place in the public miud, and seized the opportuniiy to make capital out of it. The consequence was that harder terms of restoration were demanded by the patrv in power. It the Southern States had adopted the Constitutional Amend raent they would have been restored upon that condition. Having rejected that, the Sherman bill, with harder con ditions. is now offered. Should they show hostility to this measure the con sequences will be still worse. General confiscation and prolonged military rule mijfbt fellow; for the North is deter mined to crush out the seeds and rem uants of rebellion and to hold control of political power. Mr. Brown wisely say<, “if we reject the terms pr.ipo ed in the* Sherman bill, I confess 1 see no hope for the future.” These truthful and em phatic words should sink deep into the heart of every Southerner. yAll who love their country and would save it and themselves from ruin should take Gov. Brown’s advice—should throw overboard the old sesesh politicians and begin a new polirtcal existence. •The Tide of German Emigration. The prospects opened to us by foreign emigration this year are of the most cheering character. According to all appearances the influx of thrifty, hard woikiug artisans and laborers will be greater than has ever before been known in the history of the country. From Germany alone, as will have been seen by the letters of our Berlin and Munich correspondents, we may count upon re ceiving within the next ten months an addition to our population of at least one hundred and silty thousand. There is no speculation in the statement, for the weekly steamers from Bremen and Hamburg, with five or six extra ones, have all their places secured up to the month ot November. Taking into the account the further numbers that will be brought over by sailing vessels and the return steamers that make extra trips to take visitors to ti e Paris Exposition, we we may set down the aggregate from Germany, Belgium, and Switzerland in the period named as at a little short ot two hundred thousand. Tbe causes influencing this immense movement are, first, the conviction that is gradually spreading among the masses in Germany that our political troubles arc over, and, secondly, the fear of con scription at home. In Prussia this lat ter leeling operates to such an extent that in some of the villages of tile older provinces a third of their inhabitants will leave in the spring. It should be the policy ot our national and State Legislatures to give every en couragement possible to the movement. The prompt adoption of the Congres sional plait of reconstruction by the South, the modification of the present unwise and almost prohibitory tariff, and an avoidance of those fanatical ex tremes in legislation which war against the ideas and habits of our adopted citi zens, are among the things that will most conduce to it. We must dispel any lingering belief that may exist abroad as to there beiug a chance of the revival of civil war among us. We must prove by a very differently framed tariff irom tbe present one that we are not behind the rest ol the world in the appreciation of the truths of political economy ; but more especially must we Satisfy those desiring to immigrate that in seeking freedom ol thought and action here they will not make a poor exchange for the system of the government un der which they have been living. In other words we must not allow for ianat ical or other objects such an interfer ence with the iuuocent amusements and enjoyments to which they have been accustomed us would not be tolerated in their owu country under the most rigid ol despotisms. We are emphatic on this latter point, because the tendency towards Pharisai cal legislation observable in our Stute legislatures bears particularly hard upon our German fellow-citizens. When wo consider their habits ol sobriety and in dustry, their love of open air’ amuse ments, and tbe beneficial effect of tbeir example on the other lorcigu elements ot our population, it becomes our duty to protest against restrictions which must end by disgusting them with out institutions and prevent the further in* flow of immigration from the tame quarter. The above is from the New York Herald , of the 271 h ult We cannot refrain from expressing the hope that a conviction may spread among the masses in Germany that our political troubles are over, mid thnt “conscription” is among the things for ever buried. If the industrious Germans would come among us the “ old fields” and “ pine barrens” near our city would soon change to fruitful gardens, nnd turnips or spinach would not contmnnd twenty five cents per hunch in our markell Among the “ answers to correspond ents” in the Vicksburg Times are the following, which we transfer to our columns, of universal interest: Orphan. —ls your mother’s first cou sin’s brother-in-law married your family physician’s aunt, the family physician’s last patient's eldest daughter’s intended husband should inherit the property. See Coke on Gas Works. Kate. —The remark of your husband was cruel, that “he had rather lose bis wile than his diamond pin,” but you must remember that a wife can be bad for the asking, while a diamond pin cannot.” A Chicago reporter, describing a masked ball, remarks: “ If there are prettier women than blonds, they are brunettes. Cleopatra was a brunette* Berenice was a brunette. Rachel was a brunette, and so is Miss L. If one wants a f’iit, a brunette ; if one wants a cook, take a blonde. She Ims no inspirations, but she is reliable. If one wants a wife, take neither.”—Ex change. That's just w'nat we’ve done.— Local. Special Notices.
