Referring to the annual reports of the sev

the postmaster general will bring his report
down to a later period, to give an exhibition
of the Southern mail at the present time.—

We have passed through a bloody straggle
with those with whom we had been previ

bers of the same great republic, as descend
ants of the sonic glorious ancestry, speaking
thc same language, worshipping thc same
God, and believing in the same revelation.
How sad the event, that a bloody strife
should have existed among a people no situ

government to be that jbf neutrality lictwccn

I submit these facts for another purpose.—
Interests lx- -track down at a blow. It is to remind ourselves that, whilst wc have
thus lieen crippled in our resources, paralyzed
in our energies, shrouded in mourning and
sorrow, it is thc duty of each of us, with
nmrageoiis manhood, to look thc future in
the face, and to hope on and hope ever. 6ome-
thing is left. A kind Providence has cast our
lot in the midst of aland unparalleled in tlic
i iclincss of its soil and resources, an.l unsur
passed in thc material elements necessary for
n great, prosperous, powerful and happy
State. So far as thc development of resources
is concerned, Georgia is yet in her infancy.—

duction of a feeling of mutual confidence be

Thu bhick race must feel that thu white man
is not his enemy—that he is just and mag
nanimous, and that on tlio other hand will
beget conduct on the part of thc African race,
so far as they are now capable of being oper
ated npon by, such influences, a feeling of
trust and confidence and kindness, and a wil-
lincss to respond to the duties obligatory up
on them, and thus enable both to move along
harmoniously in thc prosecution of enter
prises, and perhaps successfully in the promo
tion of mutual interests.
Now, if we cultivate this feeling, (and any
other feeling would not comport with our
duties towards them,) and this feeling shall
lx.- embodied in a wise and well adjusted
code of laws for thc government of both
classes, because laws that shall be enacted in
reference to one class, can not appropriately
be suited to the other class on account of their
color and fundamental difference of race. I
say ifwc shall adopt suclra code of laws that
shall give embodiment to these feelings of
justice, kindness and humanity, which I think
it is our duty to cultivate towards them, we
may indulge a hope that we may organize
them into a class of trustworthy laborers.—
Wc cannot succeed in doing this unless our
course with reference to that class of people
shall be regulated by these high considora-
tionsofeonduct. We may succeed, ifwcareso
animated—not only at home, upon our planta
tions, but in our legislative halls. If wc do
not the experiment will only prove to be a
failure; and I fear it will be a failure. But
let us makethe experiment in good fajtli, and
in proportion as wc succeed wc shall be re
munerated for the effort, and in proportion
ns wc shall fail let us inaugurate such a policy
as will bring into our midst a sturdy, energetic
class of laborers from other countries, so that
our country shall not be a howling and des
olate waste, so that our farms may be re
paired, our fences rebuilt, and our home
steads made comfortable, and all over our
State we shall witness evidences of prosperi
ty and thrift.
* Gentlemen, these remarks have been sug
gestion by thc occasion, without any inten-,
tion ot making a set speech, but simply as
the utterance of my mind, prompted by thc
circumstances of thc moment.
I will not detain you longer. The resolu
tion which provides for thc adjumment of
this convention this day, reserves a duty
upon your presiding officer, whithin six
months hereafter, if it shonld become neces
sary, to call yon together again. That reso
lution also contains a provision, that if from
thc resignation, disability, or death, your pre
siding officer shonld not be able to perform
this duty, it will devolve upon thc chief exe
cutive of the State. If not remoredhy death I
I confess to you, gentlemen, when that clau? c
was read in thc resolution, a thrill went
through my frame. Is it possible that in
thc opinion of more than three hundred in
telligent, experienced men of Georgia, there
’s such a conviction of thc probabilities of
the deatli of a healthy man within six
months, that it thouljl be provided for by a
solemn act of the convention; So it is, gen
tlemen. It was well put in. Two of our
body have passed away. Wc shall never all
meet again. Whether I shall be called hence,
or you, it is not at all probable that we
shall all meet again. Gentlemen, in view of
this thing, and in view of onr surroundings,

The president is understood to be sanguine
that Southern representatives who can take

coming Congress.
The N. Y. Commercial Washington cor
respondent says the opinion is fast gaining
ground that a trv.dtaf Mr. Davis will be aban
doned, and that lie will be exiled.
The Florence (Ala.) Journal says the con
test in that district for congress is between
Hon. Thos. J. Foster and Mr. C. C. Slicsts.
The Journal supports the former, seeming to
think the “dearest interests” of the country
can be jiromoted by his election. Mr. Foster
was a member of the Confederate congress.
Gen. Sherman, in a letter to J. B. Haskin,
declines to express an opinion upon thc New
York Democratic platform, but favors tlic
election of Gen. Slocum.

Gen. S. Cooper, Adj. Gen. of thc C. S. army,

RELIGIOUS TOLERATION.
It was remarked, during .the xvar, that the
fiercest of the Northern radicals were often
eclipsed in tlicir intolerance and cries for
vengeance, fire and sword against the South
ern people, by many of tbe professed minis
ters of religion. Indeed, even at the present
moment, some of thc most violent apostles of
the radical faith, such as Wilson, of Massa
chusetts, and Beeches, of Brooklyn (wheth
er actuated by motives of policy, or humani
ty, is of no importance), have recanted, and
enjoined principles of greater moderation.
Jlost of thc religious organs and spokesmen
continue to ekimor, however, for bloodshed
and confiscation. As a casual specimen how
well disposed these representatives of God
on earth are to obey and promulgate the di
vine injunction of promoting peace and good
will among men, xve append thc following
extract from a Northern paper:
At a festival given in Yonkers, N. Y., in
connection with tlic installation of Rev. S. J.
May as pastor of the Unitarian cliufch, Rev.
Mr. Brewer, ot the Episcopal church, was
present, and said in a speech that “he had no
tendencies towards Unitarian views, but he
liked the people as practical elirbtians, and
had much rather associate and work with a
patriotic, humane TJnitarian, than xvith a
traitorous, pro-slavery Episcopalian, cvcn_ if
luqwere a bishop; and he thought the Unita
rian’s prospect at the day of judgment was
thc better of the two."
Militlv Companies in the Counties.—It
was inadvertently omitted in the report of
the proceedings of the convention, that on
the last day hut one of thc session, a telegram
from the president of the United States to
the provisional governor of Georgia, was read
before tlie body, expressing the cordial ap
probation of the president, of the resolution
of Mathews of Oglethorpe, providing for
raising, in the several counties of the State,
militia companies for tbe preservation of or
der, and tlie prevention of crime. The tele
gram referred to was received with manifes
tations of favor by the convention, holding
it, as they ilid, as the harbinger to tbe re
storation of civil government in the State.
Tlie resolution providing for the formation
of these companies, is published in our to
day's issue among the ordinances and resolu
tions passed by the convention.

in the great work of restoration. Not
withstanding his prominent identification
with the late Confederate government,we have
perfect faith in his-fidelity to the Union, and
doubt not that he is ready now to devote
his powerful influence, with unusual vig

his heart was never utterly estranged. Mr.
Stephens has not as yet received a pardon
from the president of the United States, but
he certainly will receive it, and all the sooner,
should the people of Georgia make him their
State executive. It is decidedly to the inter
est of the Union that the ablest and most
influential men of the South shall identify
themselves with the restoration movement,
and Mr. Stephens, standing first among the
leading intellects of his State, should em
brace the opportunity thus offered him for
retrieving the errors of the past four years
and placing himself, where he justly belongs,

yesterday of a delegation of ladies from Balti

agreeable character, and the petitioners left

Washington, Nov. 7.—The chiefs of tlie
Fox tribe bad an interview with the commis
sioners of Indian affairs this afternoon, in rela
tion to their material interests. The Sacks
and Foxes have formed a treaty with thc
United States, the latter granting them a re
servation in Kansas and an annuity, of $51-
000; but tlie Foxes will not live with the
Sacks, and have located in Iowa, and want
the government to change the arrangement to
suit tlicir circumstances.
They were asked, among other tilings how
they would like to gp into the Indian Terri
tory, where it was proposed to establish a
government, embracing Indian titles, but
said they wanted to think all matters over.
They had always been good friends to thc
government. When they come to talk with
tlieir white father, there was always some
thing harsh. This was wrong; they could
get along better with smooth and easy words;
they wanted to see their white father the
president.
Tho commissioner replied that if Foxes ran
away from reservation and disregarded treaty,
all advantages would inure to the Sacks.
They must go back or state good reason why
they will not return.
The chief replied that it was impossible for
them to live with the Sacks; They are to
have another talk with the commissioner and
were promised a sight of their White Father
before they left Washington.

The Kentucky Capt. McGowan Trots 20
Miles Inside an Hour*
Boston, Oct. 31,1865.
The greatest 20 mile race against time re
corded took place at the Riverside Park, near
this city, this afternoon, thc conditions being
that thc Kentucky thorough bred gelding,
Capt. McGowan, should trot 20 miles withm
the hour, a feat never before accomplished
except by Trustee and Lady Fulton, and by
both of these the trotting was on a mile track,
whereas in this match thc horse had to trot
on a full half mile course. The weather was
gloomy and the track somewhat heavy. As
rain threatened, the horse was started a few
seconds before the advertised time.
There was an immense assemblage of spec
tators, and thc greatest excitement prevailed,
tho betting being slightly in favor of the
horse. To the astonishment of the larger
portion of those who had invested money, thc
horse won, accomplishing the feat in the un
precedented time of 58 minutes and 25 sec
onds, having made but one slight skip in the
20 miles. After accomplishing the task, thc
horse was but very little distressed.
