Tan PassiDXirr's Masseur, according to the telegraphio synopsis sent us, appesrs to ba a studied effort to construct a plat form for the Bepnblioan party in 1870, or for a Grant party aiming at a third term. Its compromising attempt to reconcile the dlffemncea in the party on the ounenoy question, and its omission to take a de cided stand in reference to other impor tant questions of the day, appear to us to have this aignificenoe. Tu Georgia Negro Convention, called to consider the question of I nothing but pass reaolu- [ of "outrages," and ap. pointing^^^Euittee to try and hunt np some and re^wsQabcm to Congress. This was the prime intention from the start. K evolutions eondemnlnsioemigration from Georgia were voted downTb^dthen reso lutions favoring emigration wsra-^defeat ed. A resolution to the effect thatW e men from borrowing, and if it eannot members of the Convention should emL compel owners of money to loan it at any grate would have been defeated by »Walipulnted low prioe, obviously the publio CUVET. A number of our Georgia exchanges are discussing the propriety of the Legisla ture re-enacting (he old usury lava As the law formerly, stoqd, and .as some of thcf pteae want it restond, the MM,eC la- tercet whs arbitrarily Axed at T percent., and any excess was unlawful and voidable, As it stands now, all eeutsaoU not speci fying the rate of interest bear 7 per asm. per annum, but the parties may, by writ ten contract, lawfully agree upon any oth er rata of interest. We are in favor of letting the law stand as it is. A man’s money is his property, and be should be allowed to sell it at the market price, ahioh is “what it will bring, if the holders of other property are allowed to do the same thing. We cannot distinguish between usury and sumptuary Jaws. If the State undertakes to fix the rate of interest, determining thst any higher rate is sinful or against publio pol- toy, why not fix the price of bread in the’ same way I Both are acquired or pro duced by labor, both ara regelated in price by the lew of supply and demand, end if one is mure a necessity of life than tbe other, it is bread. When we can be convinced of the propriety of compelling a mao by law to sell oorn at fifty cents a bushel or not sell it at all, we can better apprehend the justice of forcing a mac to loan his money at 7 per cent, interest or not loan it at all. It is consonant with publio polioy thst money should be loaned, not hoarded, Therefore laws whioh favor the hoarding of it must be pernicious. Money will not be loaned in Georgia, io our present condition, at 7 per cent. If tbe attempt is made, tbe law will be evaded, ss it always was evaded before tha usury laws were repealed. If the rate of interest generally charged is greater now then it was before the repeal (especially greater than the ante-war rates), the reason*ia because thereaare so many more people seeking t(^borrow, and fewer who have money to lend. Tbe.lsw of supply and demand comes in here and maintains its inexorable sway. And if more than 7 per oent. has to be paid, it is better thst it should be paid In oomplianoe with than in violation of law. We believe borrowing to ba an evil, but if people ere determined to borrow, any law restraining them partakes of a sump tnary character, as much so as a law pro hibiting men from drinking liquor or obewing tobsooo. The only perceptible effect of the old usury laws re-enacted would be to restrain sums men from bor rowing, because the law oould not oompol any men to lend at a stated prioe. A law making over 7 per oent. usury would re tire from tbe market a very large propor tion of the money now held for this pur pose. It would then, increase, instead of reduoing, the rate of interest which bor rowers have tu pay, because the demand would be greater if the supply ware di minished. If the law cannot prohibit ttr. L. Pierce's tetter te the North Weerglo Ceofereoee. To the Bithop and member! of the North Georgia Conferente: unanimous vote. A Columbia correspondent of tbe —< •-* Washington Bepubbean states that Gover nor Moses ran for the Legislature in two counties, in the late eleotion in Booth Caroline; that in Hichland he ran on the Chamberlain tioket and was beaten, and in Sumter he ran on the Greene tioket and waa beaten. He appears to have been a pretty well beaten mau—first by his undi vided party in State Convention, and then by each wing of it in a county contest. But the misfortune is that while the Bsd- ioala of South Carolina repudiated Moses on any ticket, they have given power to men who will continue his policy. They were told that they must “unload," and they oast out Moses, but they are go ing to Joppa, nevertheless, and he will ge to the same place if he cau find any fish or plank to keep him from going to the bottom. P-dioy in to encourage the throwing of as ®>Wk money as possible on the market, and insthis way, by increasing the supply, lessen the • demand and lower the rate. We express our views erudely but deci- pqi itasnt feature in our work, dedly. We are L-> favor of letting thejs remain as it is. Dsab Beams**-My absence from your annuel session must fie much more paMWtoHuthanltHEtotoyou. To me, so sc* you in conference is a revival of precious memories pant, while io you it oould only be a premonition of tbe ssd conviction that than is ne style of natu ral life but what must wear put. See it iu me—(or sixty-seven years, to preach twice a day, if at all needful, was only an enlargement of a delightful privilege. Mow, to preach once a woek is about all I feel able to undertake, and this only in somebody else's place. Gone down to a point where I am afraid to put ont ap pointments on my own account. But when I get at it, my friends fay there is little or nothing miseing of me but my voice, and that is still strong enough to be heard in any space in which I bare tried it. Preaching is still to me as it has always been—food to my sonl. Evan now, it is health and life. I often feel after preaobing on Sunday, as if there was a recuperation in all the physi cal springs of life, which lasts until Tues day, when tho oatsrral affection begins to crush my life's resisting power. My phy sicians say there is but little, if suy, asth- in slf my trouble in coughing and breathing. It is all the effect of this ehronio catarrh. Chronio it is, for I can- not remember a day whan I could not dis- tiuotly say I was laboring under a cold. There is nothing in it that admonishes me of my approaching dissolution, but the difficulty of breathing always obstructed at times seems as if it will be cut off. But to him that is ready to die, sudden death is perhaps his greatest earthly mercy. I leave all this in the hands of my Heavenly Father. Most of the preaching I havo done this year has been within your con ference, on account of my “duushine home.” My mind continues, in as far as my consciousness goes, to work ss well, and as ready ss in sny period of my life. This is wonderful any how. It is a great mercy that God should so construct us that tbe mysterious mechanism called mind should be free to work in its native vigor after the outward man is evidently perish ing. It is codhlusive proof of gn inward man thaV may be renewed day by day. As I believe I told you in Atlanta, so I still say to you all, there is no natural* necessi ty that tbe mind should wane into Recond childhood, because the mortal scaffolding of muiole and bones, with which this im material in mortality is enclosed in its de veloping age, most dwindle baok to dust again. No, verily, brethren, there is no reason why the mind should die out or even die down while the brain romains in a natural state. Do not prepare for drivelling old ago by a false assumption that it must come. I tel] you it is not s natural necessity. Live temperately; take rest naturally and regularly ; apply your mental elaborations to one main veiu of thinking, for which theology offers the richest and best supply of mental fare ever provided for ils entertainment. There is in its inherent resources a mind-vitalising energy, which provides against mental decay. I am more than three-quarters into my ninetieth year, and I am not conscious of any Change in this my noblest nature. My animal springs ran lower, but my mental tides ebb and flow upon the same plane. The only difference I perceivo is that the ripe fruits of sound menial cul ture grow rioher from tbe enriohod soil of a well kept mind. If it is published, ss I prayed it might be, your minds will be directed to the changes made in our ministerial economy. It remtes mainly to the absolute necessity there is for an administrative ministry. It is not enough that we should Dioxide able ministers pdpit* We must 1 have diligent nwdfs in the field. The UMqltta Uvlat At* Bar MM. After its successful career of over thirty years The Ijieing Age castes more vigor ous and prosperous than ever before. Always the chief, it is Bow (since its ab- aorptio* of “Every Satarday”) the only scleotio weekly of the oonntry. What distinguishes it is the foot that it presents inexpensively, considering its three and a quarter thousand large page* of reading matter a year, with freshness, owing to tbe frequency of ils issue, and with a sat isfactory completeness attempted by no other publication whatever, tha ablest essays and reviews, tbe beet aerial and short stories, tha finest sketches and poems, and tbe moat valuable biographi cal, historical, scientific and political in formation from the entire body of foreign periodical literature. It is therefore invaluable to Ameriean readers as tha only thorough as well as fresh compilation of a generally inacces sible but indispensable current literature; generally*inaecessible because of its great bulk and oost; indispensable because it embraces the productions of the ablest living writers in science, fiction, poetry, history, biography, politics, theology, philosophy, criticism and art. Bepresented in its pages sre such dis tinguished suthom ss Prof. Max Muller, Prof. Tyndall, Dr. W. B. Carpenter,'Hon. W. E. Gladstone, Prof. Huxley, Frances Power Cobbe, Bichard A. Proctor, Mat thew Arnold, the Duke of Argyll, Charles Kingsley, Arthur Helps, James Anthony Fronde, Mrs. Mulooli, Anthony Trollope, Mrs. Oliphant, Miss Thackeray, William Black, George MacDonald, Jean Ingelow, Erokmaun-Gbatrian, Ivan Tnrguenieff, Tennyson, Browning, and many others. Duting the coining year it promises,be- sides the best serial end short stories of the leading foreign authors, the nsual amount, unapproaehed by any other peri- odioal, of the most important literary and scientific matter of tho day,from the pens of the above named and many other ablest living contributors to current liter ature. lathe multiplicity of quarterlies,month lies and weeklies. The Lining Age is an invaluable economiser of time, labor and money. It is pronounced “the best of the ecleotios,” and, all things considered, the ohespest; and has become almost a necessity to every person or family desir. inga satisfactory compendium of tbe noteworthy in the literary world. In no other known way, certainly, can so much of the beBt work of the beet minds of the age be obtained so convenienently, or with so littlo money, os through this most comprehensive of periodicals. T be subscription prioe is $8 a year, whiab is cheap for tbe amount of reading furnished; or for those desiring tbe cream of both home and foreign literatnre, the publishers make a still ohoaper offer, viz; to send (pottage prepaid on both periodi cal*) The Living Age and either one of tbe American $4 monthlies, or weeklies, a year for $10 00. With The Living Age and one or other of onr leading American monthlies, a subsoriber will, at remarka bly small cost, be in possession of the best which tha ourrent literature of the world affords. The volume begins Jan. 1st. and to new subscribers, remitting now, the publishers (Little A Gay, Boston,) offer to send tbe intervening numbers gratis. d4c8 dlw North (herds 4'omferomee. On Thursday a very touching and im pressive letter from the venerable Dr. L. Pieros was read to the Conference. We oopy it elsewhere. It was referred to a special committee, consisting of Beve. Jesse Boring, J. E. Evans, end Hon. E. H. Pottle. Bev. W. Watkin Hicks asked 4to be transferred to tbe Florida Confer ence. The committee on the Bible oause reported $114,.11)4 sent on aooonnt of the Bible, 80,058 volumes reoeived, 4,448 des titute families supplied, 3,2)12 individuals supplied, and 252 Sunday and other schools supplied. Tbe committee on Me moirs reported thst not a single death had ocourred among tha ministers of the Con ference during the past year. Several marriages were reported; Several more votes were reoeived on the amendment of tbe Discipline respecting intoxicating liquors, and the count now stands—fur tbe amendment 70, against it 71. We oondense from the oorrespondouce of the Atlanta Constitution. —It is now ascertained that the new Demooratio code of Georgia, as lately amended, contains a provision designed to serve the same purpose as the Texes law, to whioh we have called attention. Under it a black man may be taken forci bly from tho county of his resideuoe, and sold iuto involuntary slavery, or hired (which is the same thing) in another or remote oounty of the State, while the K ard necessary for bis safe-keeping will the master to whom he will bo hired, and the duration of his servitude may be prolonged indefinitely.—llontg. Journal. This has not been “ascertained' Georgia yet. Under the laws of this State a convict may be hired, not os s man, but as a felon, to work for the State instead of being a dead expeuse to it. The law makes no distinction between “blaok'’ and white men. They work aide by aide for the same offences. Georgia bss never been guilty of the folly and crime of per mitting oriiniuola to run at large simply because their imprisonment would be ex pensive to her. She confines or binds them until trial, and then puts them to work it they are fouud guilty. A man is no more a slave working for the State than he is while oonfined in idleness in the prisons of the State. In both instan ces he is deprived of his liberty, as he should be. Has the State Journal never yet “ascertained" that even the late Amendments of the Federal Constitution (auction “involuntary slavery” toe crime ? Alabama Isiiilalsrs. Saturday, nth.—In the Senate, Mr. Do reen entered a long protest against the notion of yesterday re-seating Mr. Martin as Senator.

All the above wen referred. Mr. Crews introduced a bill for the relief of the minor ohildren of the late Council Ste phenson, of Barbour county, whioh was passed. He also presented a petition of oitizens of Barbour county, praying the impeachment of Eliss M. Keils, Judge of the City Court of Eufaula; which was laid on the table and ordered printed. The Judiciary committee reported a bill re-establishing tha code as to search warrants ; also, a bill allowing guardians to lease property of their wards for a term of years; also Sen ate bill to repeal the sot authorising pub. licstien of the general lawa in a newspa per.

He states that the city contracted with him to redeem all of its circulation whioh he might take up; that he took in over $!>, 000 of the curranoy, and then discovered that $2,734 of it was forged.

Calhoun It was our pleasure on last Friday evening to wit* ness the closing exercises of the above named institution, presided over by the experienced and efficient Principal, Prof. Reeves, assisted by his accomplished and unwearied assistant, Miss Octavia Reeves. The exercises consisted of tho recital of poems, by the misses, compositions by the girls aud young ladies, and deelama tion by tbe boys and young gentlemoo. It would be invidious to discriminate, while all did so well. Suffice it te say that they all manifested good native in telligence, with diligent and correct cul ture. One of the notioeable features of the exercises was the system and good order observed, affording evidence of good discipline and a well regulated sohool. We were surprised and gratified at the conclusion of the interesting ex ercises to learn from the Principal that his sohool has been so full during bis fall term, numbering a? high as seventy pupils. We were also surprised to leurn from the Principal of this sohool that they had not devoted more time than waa necessary to exercise, and improve their pupils in tbe important branches of declamation and composition—it being their deaire rather to promote the solid improvement .of the school than to muke a show.
