GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
CoiTCBpomleiu'.e of Daily Morning Nows.
Millkdgki lle, Nov. 20,1851.
As I remarked iu my letter of yesterday, Mr.
Irwin, of Wilkes, addressed the House in opposi
tion to the Bill to pardou Bishop, of Bibb, who
is under sentence of death for murder. 1 regret
that the necessity of closing my letter for the
mail prevented my taking notes of his speech,
for it struck me us being one of the ablest argu
ments against the condemned.
When tho House convened in tho afternoon.
Mr. Stephens advocated (lie Bill on tho ground
that, according to tho Btrict definition of the law.
Turner Smith did commit uu ussault on Bishop,
iu catching him by the collar aud shuking a stick
over his head fourteen or fificcu times, aud there
fore Bishop wus only guilty of manslaughter.
He said ? tho very worm that crawls is tinned,
by a bemficcnt Creator, withu sting to tunuipou
lus oppressor. Mr. Stephens’s argument was a
very ingenious one, and doubtless removed the
scruples of many, who were anxious to exercise
mercy, in accordance with their oaths.
Mr. Clarke, of Stewart, euid, that it was true,
this was a solemn und important question, uud
he felt tho weight of the responsibility resting
upon him. IIo alludbd to* tho fuct that twq
juries had decided against tho defendant, juries
who had the sworn evidence of living witnesses
given iu their presence, and ull legal men know
the great importance that should be uitachcd
to tlidse accessories in arriving at the truth.
He thought Mr. Stephens had not made out his
case iu the effort to muko out the killing man
slaughter; but there was time for deliberation—
there was time for tho blood to cool, and having
killed thn deceased after there hnd been time for
reason to act, the killing bocuine murder.
Mr. S. further contended tliut the cvidcnco
showed that Bishop came on the ground deter
mined to have a difficulty. Prisoner had told
deqeused “ 1 am fixed for you.” Aud again the
prisoner hud said, “ Boys, if he puts that stick
on my head I’ll kill him,” showing tliut ho con
templated the act beforehand and was actuated
by that malice prepense which is an ingredient
of murder. Mr. S. further Baid that lie was
called upon to do his duty mulerjthc solemnities
of an oath, and under those requiremcif . he felt
obliged to vote uguinst the Bill.
Mr. Milledge, of Richmond, made an impas
sioned appcul to tho sympathies of the House
and an earnest argument in favor of tho prisoner.
He stated tliut it was the first time ho had over
been culled upon to vote to prolong or shorten
tho life of a fellow being. It was a solemn duty,
and the more so as the condemned hud now
appealed to the lust tribunul. It had been stated
that other guilty men had been turned loose by
Legislative clemency, but lie contended thut
that should not govern gentlemen in this matter.
The case under consideration must bo decided
upon its own merits und uceording to tho evi
dence adduced here. It had.beefi argued ugainst
the prisoner that two juries hud decided uguinst
him ; but he would remind the House tliut those
very juries hud also recommended the prisoner
to mercy, showing that jn,j|ieir secret hnurts,
they hail not had every do pot of tho prisoner’s
guilt removed. He replica; to Mr. Stewart’s ar
gument thut the prisoner hud said ho wus fixed
for Smith, thut it was a warning, and a proper
wurniug, to a violent overbearing man, not to
impose on him. He said tho assault hud been
made by Smith on Bishop, and iu that way tho
latter hud brought his deuth upon himself.
Your correspondent iius neither time nor space
to write out his further notes of the discussion,
und ho will only remark that tho dchute wus
continued by Mr. Floyd ugainst, and Messrs.
McDouguld aud Stephens in favor of tho Bill,
until the vote wus tuken upon the passage of the
Bill which resulted us follows: Yeas7J, Nuys 43;
The House then udjourued till this morning.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. ,
The House took up the Bill to pardon James
Johnson, of Baldwin, condemned to death for
the crime of murder.
Mr. MeDougald uddressed the House iu favor
of the Bill. No one replied, und tho Bill passed
by a vote of—yeas 11 1, nays 9.
The House then took up tho Bill to pardon
Garlund I). Cornett, of tho County of Morgan,
who is under sentence of death for the crime of
murder.
The Bill occupied the attention of tho House
until noon. Mr. Floyd and Mr. Clark, of Stew
art, spoke in fuvor of the Bill, and Messrs. Rus
sell, Mobley and McDouguld against it. While
Mr. McDouguld was speaking, the hour arrived
for the elections, when the Senate came into flic
Hull. The elections were held, with tho follow

Judge Hill was re-elected without opposition
Judge of Coweta Circuit, and W. Taylor, over
several competitors, was elected Judge of the
South Western District.
The House then adjourned till 3 o’clock*
SENATE.
Mr. Foster moved to reconsider the proceed
ings of yesterday relating to'tho Statute of Lim
itations. Mr. Foster and others supported the
motion, and Messrs. Calhoun, McCune uud otli-
ers opposed it. The debate occupied the most
of the morning hour. The Senate agreed to re
consider by a vote of—yeas 22, nays 15.
Air. Foster, from the Committee on the Judici
ary, reported various Bills back to tho Senate,
but us that body had taken no action on them
think it unnecessary to nume them.
Mr. Foster reported a Bill to dispose of per
sonal property levied upon and claimed, and for
other purposes.
Mr. Moore reported a Bill to incorporate Sav
ings Bank of the city of Augusta.
Mr. Bethune a Bill to extend Charter of the
Augusta Insurance and Banking Company.
The Senate, at 12 o’clock, repaired to the Rep
resentative Hall for the purpose of effecting cer
tain elections (which ure reported in the proceed
ings of the House), pending which a recess was
tuken till 3 o’clock. H
parties was right on tho compromise, and that
wus the Democratic party. Tho Whig party at
tho North are utterly hostile to the South. That
party would arm our slaves to imbrue their hands
in the blood of their masters. Our only connex
ion with them should be, the strife of urms upon
the arena of politics.
The Report went on to state that tho name of
Democracy called up many pleasant memories.
The names of Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jack-
son, Butler aud a host of other worthies, were
associated with it. In its past history, its pres
ent position and its future prospects, it was wor
thy of tho respoct and admiration of tho country.
When in power, tho people had always been
happy and prosperous ; when out of power, un
equal taxut'on, high tariff's and other politioal
wrongs lmd been the result. But new parties
had recently been formed. The Southern Rights
party was composed chiefly of Do time rats,and
tho Union party of Whigs, together with a com
paratively small number of Democrats. In view,
however, of the facts and reasoning heretofore
given, why might not all unite iu sending dele
gates to tho Democratic National Convention?—
Wlmt sacrifice was too great for Union ? Why
might not all unite to sustain the rights of the
South and curry out tho principles of the Reso
lutions, 98 and 9 ? A distinguished gentleman,
(meaning Air. Toombs) who luul lutcly been ele
vated to a high office, liad recently declared that
thn Whig party at tho North, had become de
nationalized und sectionalized. Tho whole
Slate should be represented iu the Baltimore
Convention, the Democratic party must be.—
Union Democrats would return to their old flag.
Let us pour oil upon the troubled waters of par
ty strife and all come up to tho performance of
a common duty.
I have thus given you the outlines of the Re
port as nearly us 1 could catch them from hearing
it read. Then followed three Resolutions, tho
first two of which, us 1 understood them, em
bodied thosd principles of the Georgia Platform
referred to in the Report, and the last reeonnneml-
od the cull of a Convention of the Democratic
party, to appoint delegates to tho Baltimore Con
vention. On motion of Air. Tilt,of Baker, they-
were adopted unanimously. I will remark, that
a public invitation had been given to all to ut-
teud the meeting, and there were probably be
tween two and three hundred persons present;
a largo number, however, took uo part in the
proceedings. As well as 1 could ascertain, tlio
meeting proper, consisted entirely of old Demo
crats who belonged to tho Southern Rights party.
Gen. Hugh A. Haralson wus then culled for,
who responded in a humorous and conciliatory
speech of thirty-five minutes. After remarking
that he wus not in good physical condition to
tnukc a speech, (by the by, 1 think that is a pet
delusion of the General’s,) ho said the call gave
him a gratification he hnd not felt for twelve
months. (Laughter.) His position had not
boon nr. agreeable one. A part ol his friends had
gono loo fur for Hint, dntl sonio not far enough i
so tliut *ic had found himself in tho unfortunate
(■ondition of tho ox between two stacks of lodder.
Some of hi s friends hnd turned thocoJd shoulder
to him; this call wan therefore peculiarly grati
fying to him. He said ho felt proud of one
tiling; he felt proud that ho had been oblo to
sacrifice party to patriotism. He luuded tho
Democratic party. All whom the country could
rely upon were in ihc Democratic ranks. Ho-
intended no reflection upon tho Whigs of Geor
gia. Ho said there were true Dcmuerats at the
North, and alluded to the timo when Mr. Dick
inson, of New York, said, in tho United States
Semite, thut right and justieo were with the
South, und that if his sword had to he drawn in
tho quarrel, it should ho on ilia side of the
South. IIo stated his holiol—strange as it might
seem—thut a sound Northern man was more to
be relied on than many from the South. Ho
gave Gen. Taylor us nit instance. He intended
to treud lightly upon the osltes of the dead. Ho
believed, if Gen. Tnvlor hnd lived, there would
huve been war in six mouths upon tho Texas
question; for Texas would liuvo stood up fur
her rights. Gen. Taylor wns under tho control
of Northern men, who misled him.
He alluded ugain to his own position, lor
somo time lie hud hnd grent difficulty ill getting
anything published in tho Democratic papers.
Even his friend, Col. Campbell, hud bean some
what squeamish. However, said lie, we’ll for*
givo und forgot all those things and be good
friends ugain.
He said tho North is stronger limn we, if wo
draw the line strictly. Our friends at the North
are in the Democratic ranks. If we reject them,
wc aro weakened, nud if we reject them we niuy
have Fillmore, or Scott, or somo Southern man
like Gen. Tuylor, thrust upon us. Tho Consti
tutional Union pnrty must neecssnrily bo afuilure
in Congress. Thu purlics will ho the National
Whig und Democratic patties. Third patties
never have succeeded. We must all como buck
to the Democratic fold. Tho Union party will
liuvo to go cither to the Whig or Democratic
3 ; for I10 must acknowledge (hat the South-
lights party, under tho loud of liis friend
Campbell, hud proved a signal failure. (Great
laughter among tho outsiders.) Therefore let
our friends open (lie door wide, l.et all grades
of patriots como in. Let thoic ho otto solid pirn-
lanx of Democracy.
Ho mode somo other remarks, during winch he
alluded to Alr.Toombs’s assertion itialatospcecli,
that our only friends at the North nro among tho
Democrats, rind ho only regretted tliut Mr. 1
had not found it out sooner.

In accordance with a previous cull, a Demo
cratic Meeting was held in tho Representative
Hull on Tncsduy night. On motion of Col. D.
C. Campbell,Uudge Day, of Jones, was called to
tho Chair, and Messrs. Burch and Cochran ap
pointed Secretaries. A Report from a Commit
tee unpointed at a previous meeting, wus read
by tne Chairman of that Committee, Judge
llerschell V. Johnson. The Report stated that
the Convention held in this city in December of
last year hud decided to acquiesce in the Com
promise Measures, uml tt»u people at the Into
elections havin gratified that decision, it became
all good citizens to yield a loyal obedience. It
was a matter of great importance thut nil the
people of tho State, should meet upon one com
mon platform That platform could be found in
those two resolutions of tho convention, which
denounce any unjust action by Congress in re
lation to slavery iu the District of Columbia, 6lc.
or its refusal to admit new States because thay
tolerate slavery, or the repeal or material modi
fication of the Fugitive Slave law. I hese rcso
lation* look to the future. All parties here unite
upon them, and all should see to it that Georg a
“ takes no step backward ” and tliut the Federal
Government keeps within the line marked out.
The compromise was now a material question.
It seemed impossible to unite all the Southern
States and even if that were possible, the North
and West were too strong for them mtlre nation
al councils. To whom then should the South
look for alliance ? One of the great national
On motion of Mr. Milledge the order wab sus
pended, and he laid upon the tablet Preamble
und Resolutions, expressing tho approval by the
House of the action of the General Government
in relation to Kossuth and his companions, and
tendering tho latter a hearty welcome. Also
expressing sympathy for Smith O'Brien and
other Irish exiles; und requesting the Governor
to transmit a copy of the Resolutions to each of
our Senators and Representatives in Congress.
The Houso then resumed the consideration of
the Bill to pardon Cornett, of Morgun, and Mr.
Hill made a forcible argument aguinst the pri
soner. Tho House then adjourned till Friday
morning, in order to pay due respeeMo Thanks

A dispatch in the Now York Sunday Herald
duted 22d instant, says—
The Spanish difficulty is definitively settled at
last—the neeotiutions huving been concluded this
morning. The settlement is substantially as has
already been stated in the Herald. The Spanish
Consul will go to New Orleans in a Spanish na
tional vessel, und his fiug is to be formally sa
luted. Judge SSharkio is to go to Hbvuuaina
national vessel, uml his flug is also to be saluted.
The President will recommend to Congress to
nmko good all damage sustained by the Spanish
Consul. As for the losses sustained by Spanish
.residents, they will seek their remedies in tho
courts, and it is promised that the government
will afford them every proper assistance.
The subject of tliu execution and punishment
of the prisoners was not brought up; neither did
Spain make a demand for reimbursements for the
expenses attending tho suppression of the inva
sion. Having treated the prisoners ns pirates or
buccamers, she precluded herself from demanding
damages from this government, which the unfor
tunate individuals executed nod already paid
with their lives. To have adopted a different
course would liuvo been to contuse that she hod
violated her treaty stipulations by summarily
trying our citizens, und thus inextricably to
have involved the difficulty by executing them
as she did. She held that they had forfeited
their citizenship, and wefre themselves alone re
sponsible for their conduct.
The dinner given by Air. Webster to Calde
ron de lu Burcu was a costy one, at which Mr.
Crompton assisted on tho part of England, but
at which the military powers of France and
Prussiu remained unrepresented. There is every
disposition though to accommodate Mons. Sar
tinge, in regard to the claims presented by French
merchants who huve paid unlawful duties in
California. The Treasury is quite willing to
refund the priticipnl,hut nut six percent, a month,
UBcluimod by (he French Alinister; and I doubt
whether tho latter will bogrutifiedin that respect.
I cun assure you thut there is not a word of
truth in the tolegruphic despatch sent from New
Orleans, stating that Governor ^etcher, the
Ammican Minister, lmd intimated to tho Mexi
can government thut the United States was ready
||u f render tho Garay grant of the TehuanUi-
puutu. • This government has not authorized
. -W* *fjllcher to do any such thiug, and Mr*
Letcher has not done so. I believe, on the con
trary; that measures have been tuken to secure
that routo to tho American company «t New Or
leans—a routo for which the administration of
Mr. Folk wus willing to puy fifleon millions of
dollars.
Will Mr. Webster resign? Who knows?
Ono day he says he Will; the next day ho
is all adrift again. His most intimate friends
now deny that ho will, unless some contingency,
not now known, should arise.

Judge Colquitt wus then culled out, and made
„ characteristic speech'. 1 confess my inability
to givo any thing liko a correct sketcli of Ins re
marks. So much forco is given to wltoi lie says,
ty what lie acts and what lie look,, thutil would
bo very difficult to give a correct idea of his
speech, even if your reporter could give you lus
words, which ho cunnot. A considerable portion
of his speech was devoted to a review of Ins po
litical history lor the lost twelve or fifteen year.,
to a vindication of his consistency, whiclt hesnid
had often been questioned, and to an illustration
by events that have occurred, of tho correctness
of views lie had formed uud priuted years ngo.—
He mude, in a good humored way, some caustic
allusions to members of the dominniit party ; and
I thought seemed glud, after a rather long retire
ment, of an opportunity to “ speak Ins mind. —

object of tho meeting than Gen. Haralson. I ake
