' It should not discuss or determine the question of the right of the frecdmen to sue and be sued, or to testify in our courts, or set as jurors. These'questions are eminently proper for the election of the State legislature and it is not important, nor may it be to our interest, that they be decided immediately. A little delay will do no harm. The convention should not intefere with thq personal code : it should only provide in tw constitution for appropriate courts and sptedy trials. It should not interfere with the .Muscogee Cowwtt.—O^judiciaiy arts, or with the law of evidence. All these should lie left with the legislature, which has proper cognizance. I The convention should not interfere with | the pttblie debt, or the finances of the 8tate. Let each public officer make his report, as I heretofore, to the legislature, which should decide such questions—as has been the usage for half a century.

Mrs. Mafy L. Longatreet, wife of Genera! Longstreet, was pardoned on Monday by the president,' It is said that at the beginning of the war her husband, for fear that the fccmfe{i^jtcy might prove a failure, took the their pockets at the expense of iheYpublic, They propose to'congress to'arid largely fo the duty on iron. This would immediately put up the price, and they would realize their millions of dollars from the rise of their stocks on hand out of the farmer and con sumers of iron. It is the old whisky.dodge over again. They have already some news papers advocating it, and will dgubtlcda.be at Washington next winter with a formida ble lobby ! Look out tor them ! • This clearly points to a still further exten sion of the notorious "Morrill Tariff," which was engineered through congress some four years ago, and already amounting almost to prohibition. By dint of turning to good account the clap-trap cry and pretence of “protection to home industry" and “enlarg ing the national custom house revenue,” they have succeeded in blinding the people to the merits of the sound commercial and interna tional principle of—Free Trade. The prime authors and movers of this odi ous system of monopoly, which the experi ence of all nations (of Russia eRpecially).lias proven to result disastrously wherever intro duced, are the manufacturers of New. Eng land, and the iron founders of Pennsylvania. So cunning and expert are the New England, men, that although the populations of all the six New England States combined, scarcely exceed in number the population pi the sin gle State of New York, yet was it noticed a year or two ago, that all the chairmen of LATEST BY TELEGRAPH.
