Tueoday Morning, Oct. 10, 1865.
The Georgia C onvention.
The elections of dclegalos to the State
Convention hIiow that Georgia will do
her part of the work of restoration with
ns liiuch wise circumspection, and ns
patriotic a regard for the condition of
her people, and at the same time with as
mindful uu ove to her vet unsullied hon
or, as any other of the Southern States.
The Convention will be a body of states*
men, practical common-sense niep f Jiigli-
toned gentlemen aim incorruptible citi-
jeeus. It is bard to find a county, among
those whose delegates are yet known, in
which men eminently distinguished for
those qualities have not been chosen.
Many of the counties hold im etings be
fore the day of the election, and put in
nomination some nt their very best men,
and we do not know of a single county,
in which jhi« course was pursued, in
which the ticket thus nominated was not
elected. The nominees selected at these
county meetings wore, almost without
exception, men of moderate or conserva
tive political views, who have seldom
advocated ultra or extreme measures,
and win* have always attested their pa
triotism iu trying emergencies.
It is a noteworthy faet that iu most
cases men conspicuously or obstinately
identified with either the originul seces
sion ♦•precipitation,” or with the later
f. irln.sur loyal organizations, were either
set aside by the county meetings or de
feated by the people at the polls. Men
have been chosen who thoroughly sym
pathize with the great body of the peo
ple of the Male In their present condi
tion, but who at the same fiuie fully ac
cept the conditions of restoration that
have been required, and will scrupulously
adhere to them—abating not n jot of
whnt the Southern people have agreed
1«* do by subscribing the amnesty oath,
but yielding to radicalism nothing of the
still reserved rights «»f the State or the

about tuo negro’n light to vote,’’ etc. In
this he hao inileu into an error. I did not
use meh language; hut simply advisod
the treed people to make tho \*e»t use ot
the right-, already secured to them, and
not to talk, think or trouble themselves
about tho right to vote—that it was not
one ot the right* essential to |their imme
diate happiness—that, as a matter of right,
in my opinion, no man should ho allowed
to vote anywhere who could not read or
write, or who had not an intelligent idea
of question** to determine which ho cast
his vote, and that whenever tho freed peo
ple by their industry, integrity and Intel*
I’lgenc”, became really qualified to vote,
they need hare no fear but that tho right
would bo grunted to them.
In tpeakinglo the freed nooplo 1 have,
and shall, continue to refrain from discus
sing political questions, or from speaking
in an offensive manner of the political
opinion of any one, but shall coniine my

The volunteer forces scattered through

regular army and veteran reserves, which
combined amountto fifty-seven regiments.
Most of these regiments noed recruiting.
They also ask that permission he granted
to veteran reserves to recruit their regi

It is urged ns a roason for thus retaining
these troops that most of them have re
ceived during tho late war such bodily in

law ?
Answer—lie can, if his dcclnrulorv
statements are accompanied by bis alii-
davit that he had actually made his sot-
tlomont prior to tho date of the homestead
claimant.
2d. Can two or nioro parties ontor the
same Tist under tho homostoad law Y
Answor—Tboy cannot. Tho list should
bo awarded to ono applicant, or if two
more apply for a tract at the sumo time,
it should bo awarded to the party making
the highost bid for pre-emption, if making
entry, and tho sum thus bid should bo
credited to tho United HtatcB in return, as
un excess, with a memorandum of facts.
Question—Can a party outer, undor the
hoinestoad law, a tract upon which u pro-
omptor has filed his doclurutory state
ment ?
Answer—Ho can, if ho Hies his affidavit
thut there is no pre emption settlement on
thoAame, and makes his entry subject to
tho pro-omptor’s claim. In such ease such
claim should bo established after notice
and hearing of tho parties concerned.

success of the Government in suppressing
the rebellion, President .Johnson commu
ted the sontonco to imprisonment at hard

of Hon. Solomon Cohen, Hon, Thomas

Three tickets wore run—two citizen's tick
ets—Col. Anderson’s name being on both
—and tho Union Club, or “unconditional
Union ticket.’’ Taking Mr. Bennetts
vote, the highest on his ticket, and that
for Col. Anderson, as indicating tho
strength of the supporters of each, it will
be seen that the ticket announced ns
the unconditional Union ticket wus de
feated by gome eight hundred and seventy
votos. But, in fact, tho question of Union
or anti-union, did not enter into the con
test. Our citizens, regarding all the can
didates alike, pledged and willing to con
form to tho requirement* of the adminis

Constitution to tho reconstruction of the

personal preferences ,and their judgment

A CARD,
EXPECT to return to Washington City
two (*.l) weeks. To those who have sent t^...
applications for special pardon by mail, or
through tho regular military channel, I would
say, that it is of the utmost importance that you
have some one in Washington to personally su
perinleiul your intuAst. If this is not dent
your case will have to yield to those personall;
represented, thereby putting it off to a porioc
in the futuro, too remote to form any but a spec
ulative opinion. Having spent a month at tho
White House, I mu sate in saying this much.
In the meautimo if the President was to die. his
radical successor, supported by an irresponsible
congress, would withdraw tho amnesty prlvil
egc, and sweep from you the rotnnant of prop
erty you havo loft. Urged by these views, a
groat mass of people from every Southern State
is now pressing the Prw-idcut, they being dosir-
ous, by obt. lining pardon,.to place themselves
aud property where a change iu the adminis
tration cannot effect them. I desire to say that
L have returned with pardons for each man that
I represented, and those desiring me to direct
and control their ca»os while passing tho vari
ous departments of government, will address
me for two weeks ut Amerious.
