Voto To dor- Tbara wu a crowded aaoemblEge in Repreoontative Hall Saturday night. Sen ator Ben Hill made one of hie brilliant ■peooheo in favor of the Convention. After speaking of the importance of the era and Federal matters, he said, as re ported by the Coiutitution: I think every man in Georgia ought to vote for a Convention. [Applause.] Now for the reasoh tbst oontrols me, and I speak flrat to all Georgians. One thing is oertain, and that is, that a large pro portion of the people of Georgia will never be satiafied until they do have a Convention and a new Constitution. Now, it is all important in the great work be fore us that we shpuid . begin with the fundamental law, .xfjth which our whole people are satisfied. The men who are moving in this matter will oontinue the agitation of it until they do get it. You will look that laot in the faoe,and, wheth er you agree with them or not, you will realize the faot that this dissatisfaction exists, and will oontioue to exist until this Convention is held. Suppose you defeat the Convention now—will that end it ? 1 tell you it will not. It will be au issue in the next legislative elections, and bills will be introduced here in this very house and diaousaions of the subjeot will oontinue until they will have.it. You say it will be expensive. The Legislature has appropriated twenty-five thousand dollars for this purpose, and I think it will be ample; but the disoossion of the question here in this hall will annually ooat the State more than this Convention. Now, then, I aay that whether the reasons that oreate this dissatis faction are or are not, in your judgment, right, makes no difference. The dissatisfaction will continue, and he is unwise who thinks it right to foroe upon the people of Georgia a Constitu tion wilh wbioh they are not satisfied. But, 4ellow-oitizens, the reason for this dissatisfaction are BUeh as exoite the re- speot of every man. They bxiat with great majority of the edooated, property- holding men of the State. ' It ia not rea sonable that that class would be dissatis fied with anything that Bhould be satis faotory. This faot should make you think the reasons worthy of consideration. The reasons are suoh as come home to every refleotiug mind, and eommend themselves to very great respsot. The first reasons that this Constitution was not made when you were in a state of freedom. The fun damental principle of our government is that the people shall have a right to frame their own organic law. This Constitution was not framed under an sot passed by a Legislature of this State, but under an ant passed by Congress. Congress took charge of the matter and oalled this oon- vention, prescribed the qualifications of voters, and took upon itself to disqualify about twenty thousand of the best men in Georgia, and to prohibit them from taking part in the rnakiog of that Consti tution. Now, you men who talk about popular and free government—don’t you reapeot the man who comes out and says, “I am unwilling to recognize as the Con stitution of my State a Constitution that was made when twenty thousand of her beat oitizenB were not allowed to take part in the construction. While it may be true that it was submitted hack to tho people at a qualified election, yet if it was adopted then it was not yours, for there was a clause, that it must bo satisfactory to the Congress of the United States. That is one reason, and if yon are an ad- vooate of popular government, then you oannot say that it is right to force upon the people of Georgia a Constitution made in suoh a manner and under suoh restric tions. If the Republicans act at all from principle, provided they have any princi ples at all to aot upon, they should vote for a convention. You made a fuss about the Constitution beoause the oolored men did not have a right to vota and a voice in the making of it, and yet you made one, in the construction of whiob a large portion of the while people of the State did not have a right to participate. Isn’t it right that yon should be against this one for like reason that put you against the other. This Constitution is at war with every principle of popular govern' ments. It is an insult and a discredit to every man in Gdorgia, beoaose the reason why these twenty thousand men were dis franchised was because they had served yon. Isn’t it a standing insult to you and to every man in Georgia, that because they served you they wore punished for it. And, my friends, you will never be able to get the intelligent people of Geor gia satisfied with a Constitution thus framed, nntil they are unworthy to be freemen, and then it matters little wheth er they have one or not. Another reason is, that a great many people in Georgia ore never going to be satisfied with this Constitution, because it denounces the late war as a rebellion and all who took part in it as traitors. I know that a party that tries to overthrow a government and fails are oalled by the outside world “rebels.” I do not care for what the ontaide world may say, but are you going to have your own funda mental law denounce you as such 7 Are you going to call yourselves traitors 7 Does anybody require that you should 7 Yon say it ia a sentiment. Ah I it is sentiment without wbioh no man oan feel manly. Let others oall us “rebels"—let the oatside world do it ; but will we oall ourselves “rebels 7" and will we put it in our own fundamental law and keep it there 7 It is a stigma upon your dead. What a mockery it ia for you to have your annual deooration, when your fundamen tal law says they are “rebels” and traitors whom you thus honor I It is au outrage and an impeaohment of your civilization as a people. You have submitted to it heretofore beoause this Constitution was not of your making, but was forced upon you by the bayonet. History will not blame you for the past; but now if you adopt it, you become responsible for it. [Mr. Hill next insisted that the Bepub beans who olaimed that they were f< toed *° their part in the ma- *mg of this Constitution by compulsion from Washington, bad no longer that excuse, and should redeem themselves in this election by voting for the Convention. He also ssid that it seems impossible to have a cheap admin istration of the government under this Constitution. We have both sorts—Re publican and Democratic—and all were shamefully extravagant He cited the tact that a Democratic Legialature paid twenty-seven thousand dollars for clerk hire in one year, and deolared this exhibit to be shocking. For all this extrava- ffssoe, the plea was the looseness of the Pjsssnt Constitution, and he favored the adoption of a new Constitution, so that it •mold no longer be blamed for these things. Mi. Hill then eontinned : Mj friends in Atlanta, let me say s few Words to you : However other people vote, in my honest opinion every single ms® in Atlanta should vote for a Cooven- JJJh- I *i*h that on next Tuesday in this mty the vote for it oonld be unanimous. « you do not vote for a Convention the world will do you the justiee to any that did not vote against it beoause you ?°vsd the present Constitution, for they *®ow that you do not. They know tbst you voted against its ratification ; but they will say you did it beeause you are afraid of losing the capital, and that you are willing to keep this Constitution upon the people of Georgia rather than lose tho eapital. That is not right—not like high- minded people. They will say that you, for a selfish motive, will keep upon the >eople of Georgia that whioh the people iste. You oannot aooomplish it. Suppose that you vote it down now—it will come up again, and 'you will only have postponed it. Suppose that you vote against it nud the balance sf the State vote for it—how will you stand then 7 Atlanta will be put down as New Advertisements. an enemy to the Convention, and that Convention will have the power to make the removal. If the convention is to oarry,you should put yourselves in sooord with it, and have your members there who are in aooord with a majority of that convention. Don’t put yourselves in a wrong position. Suppose the balanaa of the State vote it down—you will have done no harm in having voted for it. A kind, intelligent gentlemen, who is usu ally oorreot in his political opinions, said to me the other day, if Atlanta votes against it, her vote may defeat it. That is tho very worst thing that oould happen to you, beoause if your vote being agaim-t it defeats the convention, every man who helps to contribute a majority of the leople of Georgia outside will i eel that you have kept upon the people of the State that which a majority of them wanted to get rid of, and BOlely that you might keep the eapital here. It would make every friend of tha conven tion in Georgia your direct enemy. It would be an nowise thing for you to do. I talk frankly and solely for the good of the oity. I have Boms warm friends who have differed with me thus far in this matter. Some of them have their names upon au opposition tioket, but I hope you will reconsider it and have if out of the field before Tuesday.' Let ns withdraw it, and let everybody vote for one tioket and for the convention. [Applause ] My own opinion ia that so far as the capital is concerned, it makes very little differ ence, and I have no idea that, unless you put yourselves in a position to invite the issue, it will be made at all. You do not wan’t all this agitation. If Atlanta is going to have the Capitol,let herknowit. It they ore going to take it away from Atlanta, why let the agitation cease. This Con vention is going to be upon the basis of population, and you will have a better representation in it than in a convention called in any other manner. This deAire for a new Constitution is the highest feel ing that oan aotuate mankind. It is a feeling that aotuates thousands of our best people, who are determined to have new Constitution, and it will not do for you to be against it. I tell yon that the men in Georgia who hBve this feeling arc destined to be the future rulers of this oountry. It is no use to shut your eyes to this faot. They are men who possess intelligence — who have property, who love the traditions of the past; who love the memories of the dead; who have a keen sense of the honor of the future; and I tell you it is dot in your power to keep suoh men down. [Applause] Yon may, for temporary reasons,with transient expedience, with false views, for a time postpone this work but you oannot con qner it—you cannot defeat it—yon cannot destroy it until you destroy the highest elements of manhood in tho oitizens of Georgia. [Applause.] Look at it straight in the face. ‘Come up, and let us evory one vote for a Convention. Then, ovary man who is in favor of a Convention is your friend, and will feel that you are in acoord with it. I will not take your time talking about the thousand things that are to be put in the Constitution. Look at the great subjeot — the oontroll - ing motive—and leave the details to be fix ed by the members of the Convention, tell you a Convention whioh shall be pro sided over by that grand specimen of hu man civilization, Charles J. Jenkins, of Augusta, will be better than a Convention in whioh Aaron Alpeora Bradley was the greatest leader. But suppose that the men who came to this Convention should be unable to frame a better Constitution than Aaron Alpeora Bradley A Co., did— they must submit it for your ratification, and if they frame a better one than you have got you can take it, and if they make a worse ono you needn't take it; and you need not have any fear that it will not be submitted for your ratifica tion, according to the expressed will of the Legislature. A great many are against it because it will disturb some of the official relations nnder the present Constitution; but the idea of plead- ■ ng the tenures of a little offioe—the ten ure of a few days or a few months—as a reason for not elevating a stigma from your living and dead, is an outrage. Come up and do your duty like men, and I guarantee you shall oome out all right. [Mr. Hill then ridiouled the idea of the rights of the colored people being disre garded in the new constitution, claiming that they were valuable to the South in an increase of political representation, and were gradually ooming to a right view of their relations with the people of the South. He dosed as follows:] The future of this South is going to be better, brighter, nobler and higher as time goes on, and if we will be wise, prudent, true and firm—oling to the Union as it is—the dsy is not far distant when you will be the controlling power in this government to the great good of everybody in the Union, and no one from the Faoiflo to the Atlantic, from the lakes to the gulf, will have better eanse to be glad that the Booth bus come to save Constitutional .government to this people than the men who have been deriding ns for two deoades past.
