Mr. Jenkins, from the Commiltoo of D>,
reported two Articles of tho draft of a
ewConstitution of the State, for the na
tion of the Convention. Mr. J. said that
the committee could report the Constitu-
tlii? way, by parts, and that thus
the Convention might keep pace with the
mmilteo.
Tho first Article is tho Declaration of
Rights of the old Constitution. The first
ted, as are one «>r two
other* in refero&co to tho quartering of
troops, ike. Other clauses have unfler-
Iteration* and condon-
utiom, but their spirit and scope arc re-
time 1. A now clause declares that the
abolition of slavery in this State having
Len proclaimed by the Federal Govern
ment, and that pnudamation having been
practically enforced, slavery or involun
tary servitude shall not hereafter exist in
Georgia, except as a pur i j hmonl for crime;
Uittnitthiideclaration shall not bc con*
d to bar tho right which any man
uijhivo to claim remuneration from the
Government ol the United States.
The first Article, or Declaration of
Bights, waslbi* afternoon adopted by the
Convention. The second Article reported
hi fit to bo taken up by section*.
There U but little dilferonco between
n<l article ns reported and tho old
Constitution. Tho Senatorial Districts are
Gained is they now are (Mu-cogec, Ma-
r, " n *nd Chnttahoocheo composing the
hkii District i, and tho House of Kepre-
•entat'vcs is still t-j consist of two ltepre-
H*ntative* from each of the thirty-seven
•Hi counties and one each from the ro-
r *<lcr. Senators required t>* be twenty*
years of age, and to have resided in
provision for the care of those unable to
take care of themselves. A law of tho
State now provides that masters shall take
eaio of thoir helpless slaves. It is not pro
posed to enforce this faw; tho Govern
ment only asks that tho helpless and in
firm be temporarily taken enroof—not that
tho*e able to work bo maintained in idle*
ness. Schools'svill be established, but they
will not be thrust upon any man’s planta
tion without his consent. It was evidently
for the interest of tho whites that the ne
groes should bc educated. Their igno
rance is tho greatest difficulty now in the
way. Their value will depend upon their
intelligence.
It is important that tho freedmaii’s no
tion that he will be allowed to lead a vi
cious and idle life should bo corrected.
They must labor for tbspr mppert.
When they make a fair agreement they
will bo compelled to stand up to it, and
carry it out. On this depended tho sta
bility and prosperity of labor A freed*
man who is treated fairly and justly, and
allowed a fair compensation for his labor,
will bo compelled to remain on the plan*
iation and do his duty. This was tho set
tled policy of tho Bureau, of Gen. Howard,
and of the President. But the negroes
must feel secure in thoir lives, their per
sons, ami their property. The dread and
insecurity which they feel is ono reason of
tiic refusal of so many of them to bind
themselves by contracts and faithfully ob
serve them.
Those people were free, and it was a fact
of his duty as an officer of the army to
maintain their right to freedom. But he
did not say that the negro ought to be al
lowed to vote, for he did not believe any
such thing—that wus a matter fortkoStates
interested to decide. And no man could
come hero and make inilaminatory speech
es to tho negroes, telling them that they
ought to vote. He would not allow it.
General Tillson said that he could not
find officers of the army sufficient to fill
tho positions of local agents of the Bu
reau, and had therefore asked the State to
instruct ordinaries and justices of the
peace to act as agents in their respective
counties, when called on by him. In
making selections of agents, ho would
have nothing to do with a man’s political
opinions ir. tho past; lie would only ask
him to do justice to all persons, without
respect to color. In reference to negro
testimony, ho said that in eases in which
negroes were interested parties they
should bo allowed to introduce witnesses
of their own color ; but it would bc for
courts and Juries, composed of whito men,
to determine what weight should be given
to such testimony.
In answer to questions put, Gen. Till
son said that as soon us hU agencies were
fully organized, negroes on tho planta
tions would bo compelled either to mako
contracts and go to wqrk or to leave. Tho
white man would not bo compelled to
support, the negro in idleness. Neither
were men obliged to biro or to support.
families of negroes. Tho young could
be apprenticed, in accordance with regu
lations alreudy issued; and negro men
would bo constrained to provide for their
children in this or some other way.
[A’ofe.—In my statement of tho purport
of Gen. Tillson's communication to Gov.
Johnson, sent you the other day, I think
ho was represented as saying that lie
would select local agents of tho Bureau
without respect to color. What he did
say was that tho agents would be required
to do justioo to nil men without respect to
color. An imperfect hearing "f tho letter
as read was tho causo of tho rnistako.]
SPECIAL NOTICES.
OFFICE COLLECTOR INTERNAL REV.,
Saturday Mornino, Oct. 28.
Mr. Williams, of Muscogee, introduced
an ordinance “to establish the Judicial
Department of tho Slato of Georgia,”
providing for tho establishment of Su

Rev. Dr. Marshall’* Sermon In the
Cooper Institute, New York.
The discourse of ltev. Dr. C. K. Mar
shall of this city, delivered at the Cooper
Institute, New York, has been tho subject
of much comment, caused by the meagre
and erroneous report furnished by the
press of that city. We haveobtainod from
I)r. M. tho following extracts, which will
correct many prejudicial imnrossions:
* * Tho South deemed
herself light. She had read the history of
God’s Providonce over nations. In that
history she saw ovolvod the solemn and
irrevocable truth that hitherto many grent
nationalities had run their course—been
shaken, disrupted, dissolved. Other na
tions had been separated! and ro-created—
many been overturned, and their ribs still
rise above tho surface of silent and desert
places, ull over the earth, like tho monu
ments of the dead. The path of trans
gression is the highway of retribution.
Vice, armed with a power adequate to ro*
actionary avengement, shook down the
mighty institutions of the older ages, and
till marchos onvrnrd in tho terrible inflic
tion of deadly blows, trampling under
foot tho haughty, vainglorious ana proud.
Haughty, vuinglorious, proud—why
should wt ho considered exceptional to a
law of natur*, and of Heaven? Mero
bigness of territory wns, to an alarming
extent, the demand of tho ago—the sin of
America. “Give us more land," was the
cry. “Let ustakeCubu, Canada, Mexico
—let us add vineyard to vineyard, and
farm to farm—Oh ! wo aro a groat peo
ple l” But, there, at that point, the ques
tion arose, were wo a great, or, only a big
nation ? Tho South made tho distinction.
A people really great could defy dissolu*
tion, and engirdled without, and penetra
ted to the coro with tho “righteousness
thatexalteth a nation,” might jastly hope
to stand steadfast—unshaken—and fulfila
career, of unbounded power and moral
glory. But we had no faith in tho sover
eignty of justice: no confidence in the
pulpit; no reliance in tho right adminis
tration of public affairs. In a word, wo
thought that we were a very big, but not
a great nation. What cared the South
for torr.torial glory 1—What for national
power to bully tho kings, potentates and
powers of the world across tho sous? Ab-
so’utely nothing. #
Southern soldiers fought well because
they doomed themselves tho soldiers of
God. Never was an army more thorough
ly imbuod with the idea that their causo
was just—that it was tho cuuse of reli
gion, civilization, self-protection, and es
sential to the preservation of republican
principles, as elucidated by tho fathers of
the country, for the North, us well as for
the South.
It was expected that such men—so in
spired, so believing, so resolved, would
delivers storn, terrific and fearful battlo
—and nothing more chivalrous than thoir
light, with tho world in arms HguiRst
them, was ever recorded of human cour
age. Every soldier was a hero, and tho
women of the Confederacy belmvod liko
inspirod angola, doing deeds of charity,
patriotism and solf-danial, in the namo of
Christ, which will nmko, when written,
the brightest and most beautiful pugus of
history.
Now, it was because those great princi
ples and suntimenta animated the South
ern bosom, that, when tho fortunes of war
overpowered her, and she was compelled
to lool that God intended to answer her
earnest prayers and martyr-liko sacrifices
with something bettor than independence
—whatever that may bo—that she surren
dered in a spirit of magnanimity, only
equaled by the courage with which sho
(ought; and l will say, as L am daily,
hourly, asked tho temper of tho South
that, if the same spirit which animates
that disinterested and wido-heartod phi
lanthropist, who, only a few weeks since,
stood where I now siand, and generously
defended tho exiled Davis from tho charge
of treason, could bo manifested towards
the people of the South, they could bo
won back, not merely to duty, as citizons
but to fraternal intercourse, concord and
uffeolion. Yes, could the 6piril of Gerrilt
Smith enter the bosoni of the men of tho
North, and they would imitate his Chris
tian example, and, liko him, utter great,
brave words of kindness, sympathy and
lovo, the nation would not require to bo
“pinned together with bayonets,” but
would bo blondod into ono common
brotherhood by that divino principle
which knows no geographical limitations
or courses of the compass. For such a
man nly heart expands with a brother’s
affections. Whatever may have heretofore
been his views, on old ishues, I regard his
manly utterances for us in the hour of our
gloom and disaster as tho true offerings of
a noble naturo, and can but hope the
coming days of quiet, after tho hurricane
of passion lias subsided, shall prove his
heart prophetic, and tho two peoples in
spirit be cemented by countless hosts of
his imitators on both sides of the land.
Then, tho country, purged of its thou
sand shams; its 6wora-wrought wounds,
now ghnPtly and gaping, once healthfully
healed; justice enthroned, and equity es
tablished; no prophot shall staud up to
challenge the weapon of Heaven, “O,
thou sword of the Lord, how long will it
bo ern thou be quiet? Put up thyself
into thy scabbard ; rest thou and be still.”
Tho sword will glitter as tho blado ol the
plow—the spear perform the mission of
the pruning knife—the land rest from
blood, and mon loam war no more.
