The DAILY PRESS la also the Official Paper of the City of Anfaita, hatlai been elected by the City Connell aa their Official Organ* The Atlanta Meetings. The telegraph furnished ns a brief account of the meetings held in Atlanta, on Monday, “to take into consideration the duty of Georgia in the pending crisis.” The Atlanta papers, on Tues day morning, contain full reports of the proceedings, which it appears were of quite an exciting character. The first meeting, called at 10 o’clock A. M., was organized, with Richard Peters, Esq., as Chairman, and H. P. Farrow and Wm. L. Scruggs, as Secre taries. A committee was appointed to re port resolutions, consisting of Col. H. P. Farrow, Chairman—V. A. Gaskitl, E. E. Rawson, J. G. Harris, I. G. Mitchell, C. P. Cassin, E. E. Hnlbert, T. W. J. Hill, and Col. J. J. Morrison. While they were absent, the meeting was addressed by Mr. J. L. Dunning, Col. G. W. Adair, and Mr. Bowen, The Committee reported resolutions recommending the acceptance of the plan of reconstruction passed by Con* gress, (which were adopted by a subse quent meeting, as reported by telegraph to this paper,) which were received amid some confusion. Col. Farrow sustained the resolutions in a brief speech, when Col. L. J. Glenn offered as a substitute resolutions recommending the people (/ Georgia to remain passive, and wait for the developments of the future. Col. T. C. Howard offered a series of resolutions, protecting against the in justice of the bill, declaring its accept ance to be political suicide, and assert ing our sincere desire to obey the laws and do justice to men of all colors and from all sections. A motion by Mr. Gaskill, to lay the resolutions of Col. Glenn and Col. How ard on the table caused great confusion, and the convention adjourned until 7 o’clock P. M* After the motion to adjourn prevailed, those in favor of Col. Glenn’s resolutions were requested to remain, and a meet ing was re organized with Hon. L. J. Gartrell as Chairman, and John C. Whitner as Secretary. Col. Glenn then offered his resolutions which were as follows: Resolved, That in view of the pre sent condition of the Southern States, and the passage of the military bill by the House of Representatives over the President’s veto, it is, we think, the duty and the policy of the people of Georgia, to remain quiet, and thereby preserve their self-respect, their man hood and their honor. Resolved, That in the event said bill has become a law, we trust that Gov ernor Jenkins, cither alone or in con junction with the Governors of other Southern States, will, at once, take the necessary steps to have the constitu tionality of said law tested before the Supreme Court of the United States. Resolved, That we, the citizens of Fulton county, tender to his Excellency President Johnson our heartfelt thanks for bi3 patriotic effo-ts to protect the Constitution of the United States, and save the liberties of the people. Resolved, That copies of these reso lutions be forwarded to his Excellency the President of the United States, and to his Excellency Governor Jenkins. Speeches were made by Col. J. J. Morrison, Col. G. W. Adair and Col. K. A. Alston, and the resolutions were almost unanimously adopted. At night the adjourned meeting of the morning re-assembled, Col. Peters in the Chair, and T- W. J. Hill, Esq., acting as Secretary. The resolutions reported, by the Committee (published under our telegraph head) were re-read, and after a few remarks from Col. Far row, were adopted and the meeting ad jourued, when Ex Gov. Brown entered the Hall, and, in response to a general call, discussed the pending issue in all its bearings. These meetings appear to have created deep interest and considerable excite ment in Atlanta, and the city papers contain full reports of their proceed ings. The Era still refrains from com mitting itself to any line of policy, but stands by the President, and urges com pliance with the requirements of the bill, as the law of the land, wish a hope that a reconciliation between all parlies may be effected, which will save the country from final ruin. ibe Intelligencer urges-moderation— advises the people to let politics and party alone, todie patient, audio endure with that manliness which is character istic as well of the wise as the brave. A DetßotT Papbii tells of a very beautiful young lady, who went tp that city, ostensibly in search of a brother, and soon succeeded in captivating a youpg Michigander. She signified her willingness to marry him, but said she had been disappointed in getting money from home, and would have to defer the nuptials. The impatient youth sent her SSOO, and when be called a day or two after, found a note, informing him that she was off to join her husband in California- Spirit of tin Prut. The passage of the Sherman Military Bill bring* a gratn issue directly home Vo Vhe people of she States effected by the eieeeure—en issue so effecting their liberty and property, as to demand the most dispassionate consideration. In or der that oar readers may be advised of the tone of the popular mind on the subject, we shall from time to time present the views, pro and con, which are advanced in our exchanges, without reference to the position which the Daily Pirns will maintain. We deem this the fairest and safest way of weighing and deciding the momentous issue involved. The Washington Republican says the bill is inconsistent with the Constitu tional Amendment, which forms a part of it, in the fact that section five of the military bill provides in each State for the election of delegates “by the male citizens of said State, twenty-one years old and upward, of whatever race, color, or previous condition," etc., etc., while the Constitutional Amendment leaves the question ot suffrage to the States* In other words, the Constitntional Amendment throws a tub to a whale and bids for negro suffrage—leaving it optional with the States to take to it and its attending benefits or refuse it. Hence the Military Reconstruction Bill ;s in direct conflict with the Constitu tional Amendment. That paper further says that the be ginning of the bill—“ Whereas no legal State governments gpovt exist’’—does not accord very well with the 6th sec tion of the same production, which recognizes the illegal governments and provides that they be only “provisional.” The third section of the same bill says the officer may allow “ local civil tri bunals to take jurisdiction of and try offenders,” Ac. How can there be a “local civil vribunal" where there is “no legal State government?” The leading article in the New York World of the 28th uIL, opens with the following paragraph : If the southern people should resist the execution of martial law by force, they would be fighting in as righteous a cause as any in which a patriot ever drew his sword. Armed resistance is the natural and appropriate mode of re dress for such flagrant injustice as is now meditated against the South. 1 Re sistance to tyrants is obedience to God.’ The only good reason for not appealing to arms in this conjuncture is the hope lessness of success.” The Marietta Journal, alluding to Gov. Brown's suggestion for a Conven tion, says: While it cannot be said that in this instance Brown has catered to popular prejudice, it may be said, with truth, that he has given some very sensible advice, however distasteful it may be to most ot our people. We roust move now in this matter to avoid complication still more humiliating than anything yet be fore us. The National Intelligencer closes a long and able political article with the following paragraph: A country that will acquiesce, in a time of universal pence, in a measure deliberately abrogating the Constitution and laws in toio over half the nation, yet affecting to keep them in force in the other half, is a country ignorant of its own Constitution, and, therefore, in capable of a saving faith in it. Such a people are ripe for self abasement, and in imminent peril ot their freedom. The Atlanta Era says there are three parties in that city—those who sustain Gov. Brown, those who oppose his schedule, and those who are disposed, with the Era, to wait for developments. The Macon Telegraph denounces the position assumed by Gov. Brown as “monstrous.” The editor of the Journal and Mes senger endorses the suggestions of Gov. Brown, but the Proprietors declare that the paper must not be regarded as fa voring any man or measure, and that they are as ready to show the objections to the me isure as t lie advantages. The Hon. Ben Wade Nominated foh President of the Senate.—The Republicans of the Senate have in caucus nominated Benjamin F. Wade, of Ohio, for President of the Senate, in place of Foster, of Connecticut, whose term expires and who is superseded on the 4th of March by Orris S. Ferry. Foster is too near the conservative pat tern of Dixon and Doolittle to suit his party, and so he goes out. With the meeting of the new Congress, therefore, on Monday next, Mr. Wade will become President of the Senate, and in the event of the removal of Andrew John son, acting President of the United States pro tem. It is donhtless in view of this contingency that Mr. Wade has received this nomination. He has been sixteen years in tbe Senate, and was a trenchant Northern Radical when his party in that body was a mere cor poral’s guard. In 1860—’61 he and Andy Johnson were about the only members of the body of whom the Southern fire-eating rebel -conspirators were afraid. They used to say, “ Don’t provoke old Ben, for ho means mis chief.” With such a man in the White House there will be no further tinkering or temporizing with the rebel States, aud Southern representative men in Washington, if they have not taken this hint to use their whole influence with President Johnson to save himself, will be apt soon to find that they are out of the frying pan into the fire.— New York Herald March 2. Things in Georgia.—A correspon dent of the Petersburg Express, writing from Augusta evidently hus the blues. He says: “ Enterprise is ns dead bb if the coun try was a desert. There is a little, sick ly, puling trade in tbe necessaries of life, in which purchasers buy by tile ounce or pound, and sellers require to see the greenbacks before they udjust their scales and grasp their acoop.— Values, as the word is understood in communities at peace, arc about as nominal as they wtAild have been to Robinson Crusoe, and his freedman, Friday. There are no commercial cal culations, because there is no commerce. J’lie happy few who have a little money hold on to it like grim death, and heed less of all the tempting offers of three, four, five and even six per cent, a month, with all sorts of collaterals, prefer to sit and watch the hole in the wall where the stocking is deposited, in the belief that the bird in the hand is worth the whole feathered creation in tho bush. Aa Hoxmt With***.—A coma, pondent of the New York Times, allud ing to the charge* of crime and cruelty to the negroei in the South, *ays: In Georgia, I do positively maintain that it ie incontrovertibly true, that the people have not ill treated Union men, or been cruel to negroes; that they are studiously observant of the laws and obedient to authority, and that there has been less crime committed in the State during the past year than in any previous rear since it became thickly settled. I have been in all parts of the State— from Dahlonega to Bainhridge, from Dalton to Brunswick—have mixed with all classes ot the people, and have been as observant of the acts and disposition of the communities among which I so journed as my opportunities permitted, and I am prepared to testily that I have never seen any persecution ol Union men or negroes. I have not noticed any disposition to persecute them, and I be lieve at this boar that a Uniouist or a negro can live assately and as free from molestniion in uuy part of Georgia as he can in Pennsylvania or any part of New England. Tax Dkrby Plan of Reform.— Among the resolutions moved by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in Com mittee ot the Whole House in the British Parliament, is the following : That the number of electors for conn ties and boroughs in England and Waie3 ought to be increased ; that such in crease may be best effected by both re ducing the value of the qualifying tene ments in counties and boroughs, and by adding other franchises not dependent on such value: that while it is desirable that a more direct representation should be given to the laboring class, it is contrary to the Constitution of this realm to give to any one class or interest a predominating power over the rest of the community; that the principle of plurality of votes, it adopted by Parlia ment, would facilile the settlement of the borough franchise on an extensive basis ; that it is expedient to revise the existing distribution of seats ; that in such revision it is not expedient that any borough now represented in Parlia ment should be wholly di.-frauchised ; that in revising the existing distribution cl seats, this House will acknowledge, as its main consideration, the expediency of supplying representation to places not at present represented, and which may be considered entitled to that priv ilege ; that it is expedient that provision should be made for the better prevention of bribery and corruption at electious. The recent Davis Tombola in Colum bus realized between SB,OOO and $4,000, which is to be forwarded to Mr. Davis. The Enquirer of Saturday says the dis tribution of prizes was highly amusing. A box of blacking would be assigned to a beautiful maiden, baby socks to bach elors and old maids, dolls to unmarried elderly gentlemen, and china babies to numbers, while others received whistles, toys, pictures, pickles, bottles of cham pagne, brandy, brandy peaches, mus tard, pepper, tacks, and every natnable article. The Central Georgian says an unfor tunate duel, with double barrel shot guns, was fought on the 10th ultimo, near Four Mile Branch, in Barnwell District, South Carolina, between Dr. M. Bellinger and O. S. Prentiss, in which the latter was severely wounded. Special Notices. Consignees i-eb Central Railroad.
