It is impracticable and wonld sand an entire change of the revenue system. It multiplies. offices. The tax lawa ore already complete; and he thought the oath of tbe owner ought to he cou- elqsive ns to the value of property, he being the best judge thereof. Mr. Hinton favored the bill. The present system pale e premium on dis honesty. He ssid two-thirds of the property-owners give in their lands Lt- low their real value. It is no greeter hardship to refuse the tax payer the privilege of valuing hit own property, then to excuse a judge from presiding in a cose involving his own interest. The bill was passed by: Ayes 19; nays 18. On motion of Mr. Brown, the bill pro viding for the pay of officers, wot taken np on its passage.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. House met and called to order by W. H. Speaker Smith. Prayer by Rev. Strickland. Journal was read and ap proved. Mr. Griffin of Honstou moved to ra- •oosider so much of Saturday's proceed ings es relate to tbe passage of e bill to protect the people of thia State in the il legal and fraudulent iovne of bonds. Mr. Hudson called the previous qaeo- tfaffi. j The call was sustained. The mo tion was put and last The motion to reconsider tbe loss of a bill to repeal tbe nsury law, which went over under the rule an Saturday, was taken up us unfinished baalnem. Mr. W, D, Anderson medo tbe point o( order that tbe failure to sustain the main question was equivalent to laying the bill on the table, and that it would take a majority vote to bring the bill be fore the House. This point was ruled well taken. Mr. McMillan moved to take ap the bill, and said that e substitute had been prepared whiob he would support. Mr. McMillan’s motiou prevailed. Mr. W. D. Anderson moved to ley the ; mobon to reoonasder on the table. This mob'on prevailed. A resolution by Mr. Hudson, request ing tbe members of this House to wear the usual badge of mourning thirty days, in respeot to the memory of Hon. Wright Brady, deoeased, wee adopted. Oa motion of Mr. Jackson the rules were suspended to take np a bill to amend an aet to establish a system of pablio in struction in this State. On motion of Mr. Bussell tbe bill was acted on by Motions. The only important change in the old lew ecaqiate in abolishing district trus tees and providing for Oounty Board of Education to be eleoted by the grand eisn. Griffin of Houston, Hillyer end Putney opposed this change—arguing that the selection of the trustees or board should be left to the peepls, Mr. Russell said that the old law often resulted in the selection of ignorant men, pud ss the grand jury ia most generally oompoaed of the moot intelligent men in the oounty eeleetkma thus made wonld be good. The bill as amended was pused. The bill to aeonre to the Educational Department the fund set apart for educa tional par poses: Mr, Jackson moved to fill the bleak with 81,213,000, and atatsd that this amount of bonds wonld be better than to appropriate -*700,000—the amount which the State owea the Educational Fund. Mr. Simmons of Gwinnett, said that he was opposed to the issue of the bonds, or to the appropriation, because it wonld be impracboable aud impossible, in the preaeut impoverished condition of onr State. He is in favor of edaoadng the people, but did not think that the aet of 1870, would do numb, if anything in that direction, bnt would, in most case*, be a perfect waste of money. Mr. Griffin of Houston, favored an is sue of bonde or on appropriation, urging that it la due to the orphans of Confede rate soldiers, es well m all the children in the Sjato, that means for their educa tion should be raised. Mr. Beoon wanted to give the system e fair trial, and was in favor of inserting some amount approximating the sum recommended by the committee through Mr. Jaoksou. that it pegged, and honest people have acted under it and good faith ought to be kept with them. He is ia favor of making some provision for giving to the Educational Department mob sums as have been specially aet apart for it by the Constitution. Mr. W.D.Anderaon was opposed toim poking such an addition btrnlen upon the already overburdened people of this State. He was willing to see tbe money which the Constitution sets apart devoted to sobool porposen. Ho urged his views earnestly and eloquently. Mr. McMillan said that the last Gene ral Assembly appropriated a part of tbe Eduoational fond to other pnrpoecs. purposes, and as tbe law has been administered, the children do not reap the benefit of the money set apart for school purposes. He diaenmod the circuities connected with the money Toy this purpose. He was in favor of educating children, but hb was not.in favor of so doing through the present channels. Mr. Jackson said that the only addi tional isane of bonds required, wilt be about 8896,282. Governor Bullock has wrtially placed book 8288,000 worth of loads, instead of those which had been used lor other purposes. He ssid that the State ia only asked to pay the inter est on her indebtedness to the education al land. Mr. Patillo called the previous ques tion. The call woe sustained. A motion by Mr. Biley to indefinitely postpone tbe whole matter; lost. Mr. Jackson’s motion to issue $1,218,- 000, was loot. Mr. Jaekooe moved to insert $482,288 —the amount owed to the Educational Fund by the State rinee 1868, when tbe now Constitution was adopted. Mr. Cumming said that the idee that this amo&at is a debt of tbe State is er roneous, for the State cannot owe her- self, but a fund which should havo been used for the purpose for which it was set apart. He was opposed to inserting any amount in the blank. Mr. Dell moved to lay the whole mat ter on tbe teble; loet Mr. Pou favored Mr. Jackson’a lest motion, and said that the Constitution requires that money raised from oertain sources | should be devoted to ed ucational purposes, and that requirement ahonld be carried onk Even if the money has been stolen it ought to be made good, and teachen who have la bored in the eanse should be paid. Mr. Jackson’s motion to insert $4:12, 288 was lest. Mr. Soott moved to lay the kill on the teble, for the purpoee of an amendment. The motion prevailed. Mr. Kelly moved to adopt a resolution requesting the Governor to pardon John Bannon, a convict in the penitentiary. He urged his motion in a short, but pa thetic address. Mr. MoMillan, as oheixnen of tbe committee to wbiob a memorial asking for the adoption of such a resolution was referred, stated the eircamstauccs moving the oommittee to report favorably on the memorial. Messrs. Snead and Cumming stated tbe circumstances connected with the mur der by Bannon in Riekmapd county. The resolution was not adopted.

He says something of the continued friendly relations between Russia and the United Stutos, referring to the visit of tho Grund Duke Alexis, und to the hospitable reception given him. In relation to the Cntacuzy question, the President says the inexcusable court*- of the Russian Minister hud rendered it n< k ccssary for tho President to ask tho Minister's recall, aud to decline to re ceive that functionary any longer. He soys It was impossible for him, with self-respect, or a just regard to the dignity of the nation, to l>ermit Mr. Catacazy to coutiuu* to hold utercourse with this Government, after his penouAl abuse of Government offi cials and after his improper inter ference, by rarioas means, iu the rela tions between this country and other powers.

He recommends the education of four American youths in Japsn aud four in Chinn. He gives the history of the dif ficulty in Cores, and leaves the su eject to the action of Congress.

He defends the policy pursued in re ference to the Stoppage of the Kn-Klux outrages, and expresses the belief that out of tile very numerous arrests made, no innocent person is now in custody. In regard to |polygnmy in Utah ho re lates tho action of the Federal Courts and authorities there, and says the Mor mons will not be permitted to violate the laws under tho cloak of religion, but buggests whether children already born under tho Mormon system should be le gitimate. Du recommends the abolition of all in ternal revenue taxee, exaept those on spirits, malt liquors and tobacco, and the abolition of stamps; also, tho revision of the tariff. Ho soya the Indian peaoe policy has thus fur resulted favorably, ouu he reoou- raends the formation of a territorial g»T- ernment in tho Indian Territory. He suggests the removal of all political disahil.ties, under the Fourteenth,Gon- stitutioual Amendment, and says that it will be a happy time for the Southern States, wheu their oldcitizenn shall again take au interest in pablio affairs. He recommends liberal appropriations for the District of Columbia, ana for the public buildings in Chicago.
