Monday, Feb. 1, I8C9.
Senate—The Senate was called to order by
the President.
Prayer by Mr. Adams.
Journal of the proceedings of Saturday, read
and approved.
Mr. Lcktor moved to reconsider the House
bill preventing hunting by fire at night, in the
counties of Brooks, Thomas, Floyd and Ran
dolph tabled on Saturday, supporting the mo
tion in an eloquent and forcible manner.
It was discussed by Messrs. Adkins in opposi
tion, and Smith, of the 7th, and Xunnally, in
favor.
The motion to reconsider prevailed.
Mr. Speer offered an amendment, “that this
act shall not take effect within ninety days after
its passage, and that the Ordinaries of the sev
ers! counties named, publish the same in some
of the public gazettes or by printing its provi-
»ions in hand-bill form."
Mr. Moore moved to amend by inserting the
. counties of Stewart and Webster.
Mr. Gignilliatt moved to amend by inserting
the counties of Liberty and McIntosh.
Mr. Griffin, of the Otb, moved to amend by
inserting the county of Lowndes.
On motion of Mr. Candler the resolution and
amendments were referred to the Judiciary Com
mittee.
A messenger was received from the House
announcing that that body has passed several
bills.
The Judiciary Committee reported on several
bills referred to it.
Leave of absence was granted Mr. Nesbitt, on
account of sickness.
The special order, being report of Joint Com
mittee on tho claim of G. H. Penfield, against
the State, for arms furnished in 18G0, recom
mending payment, was taken up.
Mr. Smith, of the 7th, moved to agree to the
report of committee.
Mr. Burns could not see how the Senate could
tako cognizance of it in its present aspect, as it
was an appropriation, and not originating in the
honse, and he therefore moved to lay tho report
on the tablo until action on it by tho House.
. Motion to lay on the table was lost by a voto
of 14 to 18.
Mr. Candler never advocated repudiation, bnt
in this case would have to move in a new lino.
Thought Mr. Bums right in his views touching
the report, as appropriating money. He looked
upon the claim as illegal and void. Mr. Penfield
know, when he agroed to furnish the arms, that
so cession was contemplated.
Gov. Brown know what use ho intended to
apply tho gnna to. They were intended to make
secession effectual. The Convention of 1865
repudiated all such claims or contracts intended
to carry on war ogaist the United States, snd
prohibited tho Legislature from ever paying
such debts. All contracts made while a mem
ber of tho Union, or of tho Confederate States,
were declared null and void. The present con
tract WRR entered into when secession, it was
known to all, was contemplated, and had actual
ly commenced. Penfield was present at the
Legislature in 1800 when tho legislature was
urged by Cobb, Toombs, Jackson and othor dis
tinguished men and patriots, not to wait for the
people to speak through a Convention, but to
secede at once, and only through tho eloquence
of that pure and peerless stateman, Alexander
Hamilton Stephens, did tho Legislature refuse
to secede, and agroed to call a Convention.
Penfield knew sooession would occur, and there
fore must bo paid in thirty days from the date
of tho oontract. It was no argument in favor
of the innocence of the contractor that he had
supplied Alabama, New Jersey and New York
with arms, but against it.
He cannot plead with the Bnglcrof JEsop, that
he did not spill no blood as a justification.
Though a million perished while fighting be
neath tho flag of the Union, and a million more
beneath the Stars and Bars, what cared ho so
his pockets wero filled. The people of tho Sonth
gladly accepted tho first proposal to go back into
the Union, oonplcd though it was, with the pro
vision that we shonld emancipate our slaves,
and repudiate all dqhta made to advance the
cause of secession. We gave np millions of
property, and repudiated even tho debt that fur
nished oar sons with clothing. Should we pay
this claim it would bo used against us as an evi
dence that whenover the “Lost Causo ” was
touched, wo would ghro up tho last dollar in re
sponse to the promptings of our hearts.
Sir. Smith, of tho 7th. said that while the
matter did not originate in the Honse, it came
from a Joint Committee. It was only a mere
supposition that Gov. Brown and Mr. Penfield
know that secession would occur, and that the
arms would bo used against the Government of
the United States. Brown purchased the arms
in obedience to tho action of tho Legislature.
Twenty-five thousand dollars was paid in money
and the balance in bonds. What was Governor
4 Brown's duty, had the State never seceded ? It
was a legal claim. All wo had to inquire was,
did Gov. Brown contract for the arms, were they
famished, or wero they nsed ? Although wo are
poor, let ns show to tho peopis of the North that
wo are honest, though wo nro poor.
Query by Mr. Candler—Suppose you had sold
me a musket to go with Gov. Brown, when ho
took Fort Pulaski, before secession, would yon
hold it legal £
I certainly would. Yon rely on my honor,
not on Governor Brown's. Though' he had ta
ken all the forts, it does not affect the legality
of the claim.
Mr. Bums, the Patrick Henry of the Senate,
followed in on able effort, which we will give in
our morning edition.
Mr. Brock opposed the adoption of the report
in a clear ana succinct speech. Tho contract
between Mr. Penfield and Governor Brown was
entered into on the 14th of November, 1SC0.—
Two days afterwards, the Legislature appropri
ated one million of dollars for the purchase of
arms, eto., which appropriation was sanctioned
by Governor Brown- It was patent to all that
secession was inevitable. The amount claimed
is $39,432. The claim has been repudiated,
and, therefore, cannot be entertained by this
body. The Legislature has refused to pay offi
cers' for services rendered during the war.—
Senate is not to blame. It acted in obedience
to command from Andrew Johnson. It has
done so since 1865.
Mr. Brock had not concluded when the hour
arrived for adjournment.
The Enrollment Committee mode a report,
which was received.
Senate adjourned.
Hors*.—The House met pursuant to adjourn
ment.
Prayer by Rev. Dr. Brantley.
Journal read and approved.

THE RETORT OF THE Ji FTKKNCIIIIEMT CO WITTER.
The aggregate indebtedness of the State at
tho time of the compiling of this report amount
ed to $5,936,500. At toe last session of the
General Assembly the sum of $45,152 was paid
for clerical services; of this amount $19,639
were paid Secretaries of the Senate and his sub
ordinates ; $20,387 were paid the Clark of the
House and his subordinates ; $5,326 were paid
for derks of committees. They state that toe
amount expended is extravagant and should be,
in the futnre, greatly reduced. They offer toe
following resolution .-
Resolved, That is the opinion of this Commit
tee, that both toe Senate and House of Repre
sentatives pay about twice as much for derical
services os is demanded, and that wo recom
mend in future no committee of either house be
allowed a clerk, except tho Finance and Judi
ciary Committees, and that the pay of said
derks be not more than $5 per day. Wo furth
er recommend that each house confine its deri
cal force strictly within the requirements of the
Constitution and toe Code.
We further recommend that pages, guards,
assistant door-keepers and assistant messengers
be dispensed with entirely—all of them being
innovations on ancient usage, and toe expense
attendant upon toe same, being a burden upon
onr impoverished treasury, and inconsistent with
on* economical expenditure of the public money.
The contingent expenses of toe two Houses at
tho late session were unusual, extraordinary and
in the highest degree extravagant. Retrench
ment in this particular is imperatively demand
ed. Neither toe public service, nor the comfort
or convenience of members requires such heavy
appropriations of monoy, and we recommend
that toe proper officer, in each House, be noti
fied in advance, that the moat rigid economy
will be insisted upon.
We further recommend that bills for contin
gencies made for either House shall be audited
weekly by the chairman of the Finance Com
mittee of each House before being paid.
Your committee adopted the following recom
mendations which are respectfully submitted for
the consideration of toe General Assembly:
1st Resolved, That we recommend that the
convicts to bo hired out, should be hired
at a higher rate than heretofore. That in toe
opinion of this Committee the convicts are worth
at least $50 each per annum, with food, cloth
ing, comfortable quarters, and medical atten
tion, with a guaranty of humane treatment.—
And that, to insure the faithful performance of
these stipulations on the part of contractors, toe
convicts so fanned out shonld be inspected
monthly by an officer of the Institution, and
every dereliction of duty or failure to oomply
with the stipulations of the contract be prompt
ly reported to toe Principal Keeper of the Pen
itentiary, who shall insist upon a prompt com
pliance, and on failure of the contractors to do
so, toe Principal Keeper is authorized to annul
the contract.
2d. Resolved, That we recommend that youths
under eighteen years of age, bo not fanned out,
bnt that they be taught a trade.
3d. Resolved, That we recommend that toe
Penitentiary be conducted on a more cleanly
and systematic plan—the guard should he uni
formed, and the buildings, workshops and hospi
tal should be kept in as cleanly a condition as is
compatible with toe interests of toe Institution.
They recommend toe abolishment of the office
of Assistant Keeper, and several other offices
connected with the Georgia Penitentiary. _ The
report was referred to the Finance Committee.
On motion of Mr. Scott, of Floyd, the report
of the Treasurer was read in response to a res
olution offered by himself a few days sinoe, to
inquire into the payment of warrant for vaccine
matter.
The following is the report:
Tteascbxb’s Officx, ’
Atlanta, Ga., January 30, 1869. )
To the Honorable House of Representatives of
the State of Georgia :
In reply to your resolution, “Resolved, That
the Treasurer of the State be requested to fur
nish this House, as early as practicable, a state
ment of what amounts have been paid by him
for vaccine matter, upon toe warrant of the
Governor, and what warrants drawn by toe Gov
ernor for vaccine matter have been paid; when
such accounts were created ; why the Treasurer
refused to pay any such warrants: to whom any
money paid on such warrant was paid, and when,
and under what circumstances payment of any
such account was refused," I have toe honor to
report that, on or about the 21st day of Novem
ber, 1868, H. J. G. Williams, warrant and re
cording clerk of the Executive Department, ac
companied by B. B. DeGraffenreid, Secretary
of the Executive Department, presented me an
executive warrant, drawn in favor of John P.
Fort, executor of G. W. Fort, M. D.. for the
snm of two thousand dollars, to pay for money
advanced “for the purchase of vaccine matter
and services rendered, as distributing agent of
the State of Georgia, from July 15th, 1858. to
December, 1863.' Payment was refused on ac
count of the lapse of such a long period from
the time toe service was rendered, the party
rendering toe service residing at toe capital, come
affording him easy facilities for toe payment.
Mysuspicion ms aroused by tbs great anxiety
manifested by the parties presenting the warrant
for payment and their frequent voluntary avowal
that they “ knew most positively that the claim
had never been presented or paid, and that they
had no interest whatever in it." Payment, how
ever, was promised if they would present me the
certificate of the executor and the certificate of
the then acting Governor that tho account
never been paid and the service rendered at a
reasonable price. They came so near con
with my requirements, I conld not well ^
refuse payment, and on the 3d day of December,
18C8, paid said warrant to E. J. G. 'Williams,
and shortly afterwards learned that the olaim had
been presented to both Governor Jenkins and
the General Assembly of 1866, and payment by
Governor Jenkins appropriations by the
General Assembly refused. I also learned that
& party who must have been familiar with the
Executive Department had, without solicitation,
visited the executor (who had almost abandoned
the attempt to collect the same, although main-
taining its justice) and stated that heknew of
this claim and. would attempt to collect the same,
giving the executor part ol toe proceeds. The
executor, having nearly given up Die ol.im after
the action of toe Tlegislature of 1866, agreed
to this proposal, and was surprised a few days
after at receiving a certain amount of money,
which amount was only oneJialf the amount of
the u arrant.
In justice to Gov. Bullock, I will give him
the benefit of his own statement, which was.
that when toe account was presented to him by
Mr. DeGraffenried, with assurances that it had
never been paid, he told him to taka it and scale
it down to what he thought was just, and after
such scaling, 'the original account being $3.-
200 00, he issued a warrant for two thousand
dollars. Because I refused payment of this
warrant, it was reported to me that complaint
was made in the Executive office that “the Treas
urer had no discretion about paving a warrant,
after it had been approved by the Comptroller
General, and that he did not treat Executive
warrants with proper respect.”
I refused to pay a warrant based on an ac
count for services rendered in small pox cases
by one. Dr. Boswell, in Muscogee county, for
more than $3000, on account of no funds in
Treasury, and on the ground that services were
rendered before 1862, that being prior to the
passage of the set authorizing the Governor to
pay such claims, based on certain proofs. This
claim i, still unpaid.
Respectfully submitted,
N. L. Angler, Treasurer.
It was referred to toe Finance Committee.
BELLS OH THIRD BEADING.
A bin to alter and amend section 3848 of Ir
win’s Code. Committee reported adversely to
this bill
Tho Honse then adjourned until to-morrow
morning at 10 o’clock.
To Prepare Cotton Heed Tor Manure.
Mr. Gideon W. Dowte, in toe Southern Culti
vator, gives toe following plan for preparing
cotton seed manure, and preventing the im
mense lo»N of ammonia by gradual evaporation
from .tho old-fashioned seed pile, thus retaining it
in muck as the moat valuable of all food for
plants:
I hauled toe mnek directly to toe field, and
mode pens ten by ten at intervals. Hnving de
termined what distance I wished toe plants to
stand, and how much manure to the hit], it was
an easy matter to determine toe bulk necessary
to pen to manure an acre. I toes put toe
cotton seed one inch thick all over toe pen, then
six inches of muck evenly over toe seed—tons
in alternate layers of One of seed to five of
muck, until four feet high—the muck being the
top layer.
And now for the result When toe banks were
opened, there was not a vestige of seed to be
seen—not a particle of unpleasant odor, even
Nr ben handled aod pat to toe noaa. The whole
perfectly friable and had an oily appear
ance-all going to show that I had accomplish
ed what is most desirable in all manure, so
fixed the ammonia that it was fully secured
as food for toe growing plant The land to
which it was applied was very old and ex
hausted by long and shallow culture, that when I
began to plant it, it produced three hundred
pounds of cotton, or four bushels of com to
the acre. That year, subsoiling the land, ap
plying about one quart of the above compost to
ihe hill, gave me twenty-five bushels to the acre.
I have used it frequently on com and cotton
since, always with toe most satisfactory results.
I am satisfied that with deep and thorough dis
integration of tho sub-soil in preparing land,
frequent and light stirring of the surface in cul
tivation, and with muck and cotton seed com
post we need neither Peruvian or any othor
guano to bring our old lands np to thirty bushels
of com or five hundred pounds of lint cotton
per acre. I have for years wished to give this
experiment to my brother planters, and have
been deterred hither by the fear of intruding
upon space that might be occupied by a more
valuable article.
Soluble Phosphite.—The rapidity with which
phosphatic manure stimulates toe growth of
vegetation depends npon the readiness with
which it may be dissolved in water and taken
np by toe root. A very good method of making
tho phosphoric acid of ordinary bone ilu^t. solu
ble, is to spread it between layers of fresh and
fermenting bam yard manure. The heap shonld
be covered over with a thickness of several
inches of dry earth, to absorb all toe ammonia
evolved from the bam yard manure, and the or
ganic matter in the bones. The whole should
be under cover to prevent toe mass from being
soaked by the rain.
Hottx-runx Guano.—Collect a barrel of bones
and crush them, mix with a barrel of oak or
hickory ashes; moisten with soap-suds, apply a
quart or two at a time. Use as a special fertil
izer on motions, squashes, early com and cu
cumbers ; allowing a gill to a hilL
Tho Position and Cause of the Para
guayan War.
According to the latest P-r-gosyan advices,
via Rio de Janeiro, toe allies had captured the
town of Angostura, to which toe Paraguayans
retreated after toe battle at Yitieta, and Lopez,
with toe remnant of his army, had fled to toe
interior. The contest which now seems to be
drawing near termination, was initiated in June,
1854, when Lopez, having finished strengthen
ing the fortress of Humaita, and matured his
other plans, seized the Brazilian steamer, toe
Marquis of OLinda, and thirty Brazilians,.all of
whom are said to be prisoners to this day.
This act is supposed to have been in retalia
tion for the compulsion exercised by Brazil upon
the first Lopez, in toe naval expedition which
sho sent when he refused to carry out his treaty
for free navigation of the river necessary to
Brazil, and compelled him to abide by agree
ment The rulers of Paraguay have always
borne themselves with rather a high hand to
wards foreigners. In 1853 the American min-,
ister in Paraguay negotiated a treaty with Lo-
pez L, securing the free navigation of toe river
Paraguay, and providing [that citizens of the
United States and Paraguay should enjoy equal
privileges and. protection from either govern
ment Our representative, however, from a
want of diplomatic tact allowed toe Paraguayan
secretary of foreign' affairs, at the dictation of
his master, to insert whether the name “United
States of America" occurred, the following sub
stitute, “the United States of North America.”
In a legal document like this treaty, there
appeared, both in the English and Spanish ver
sions, a frequent repetition of this tide. No less
than thirty-tvo times was the phrase “ the Uni
ted States of JSortA America” found in the trea
ty signed by Lopez and sent to the United States
Senate for ratification. After the Senate had
ratified it, Lopez refused to ratify it on the
quibbling pretext that it ‘ 4 had been altered
thirty-two times” by the United States Senate.
In 1S55 toe same amiable gentleman fired upon
the steamer Water Witch, for which our govern
ment sent a fleet, in 1858, and exacted repara
tion.
Tot dispatch announcing that the Illinois legis
lature had passed a resolution ceding Chicago to In
diana, is a little queer to people at a distance. They
will be disposed to regard it as a Joke, but we take
it the Legislature is in earnest. It is harder to
govern than all the balance of Illinois put together,
being a notoriously corrupt and bad place. The
Legislature regards it as a disgrace, and ie anxious
to shuffie it off on Indiana. Bnt suppose Indiana
refuses to take it? Chicago had better move to be-
free city, like some of the Dutch towns.
