Hrsrnllns flic Xrsro Members. We print to-day n commnnlcatloa on this mb- ltet from one of tbs ablest and clearest minds .n Sonthwestem Georgia—a man who has held Bgh official position—a native Georgian and a life long Democrat Baring said our say upon this unweloome object, and, according to the best of our poor ability, pointed out to the people of Georgia the path of dnty, honor and interest upon this qncation, snd in this regard occupied a position ia which we hare bad lamentably few backers unoog the Democratic press of Georgia, wo hire tbonght it better to leave the subject for the prq^nt, to the influence of events and the „bn deliberation of the people. v We know of nothing in polities more abhorrent to onr reason, or onr prejadioes, (if yon like the term better,) than this whole bnsmess of introducing negroes into polities, snd especially into active partici pation in the making and administering of onr laws The sight of it makes onr blood run cold. It is a sort of moral treaaon against the great political handiwork of our revered fore fathers. The reader, therefore, can appreciate the force of circumstances and the stress of the un happy condition which brought the Teuumupb to the conclusion that it is a matter of duty and intereat and honor to reseat those negro mem bers bow revolting to our sensibilities aro the naal misrepresentations ^^inotives which fall to the lot of snch imT^Kidenco of ac tion snd counsel to a course which is abhorrent to the popular mind. Dongherty, while taking a different view of the law of the oase to what wo have done, has presented, in a very strong light, the political snd moral necessity which is upon us as a peo ple. No true-hearted Georgian can read his .may without feeling deeply the weight of his anggestions. And while upon this subject, we observe in the Atlanta Constitution of the ir.th a commu nication signnd “Georgian," which gives circnm- atantially the Congressional history of this ques tion, and append so much of it as relates to thst point. It is very important and interesting and bears upon the argument of Dongherty. We will style it Tne CoNGEiwuoNJU. Histobt op Geoeou is bs- r.ATION TO Tit* umntCE OF tbk Nbqho Eu- oiniMTT Qtnmnos To thu Courts. During the month of December, Mr. Butler introduced n bill into the House of Representa tives, “to set aside the State Government of Gendin, and to enforce the fourteenth amend ment to the Constitution.” This bill isHonse hill No. 3r>f). It was read once and referred to the Committee on Itroonatrnction. Mr. Butler urged at thst time, with many lesdingTtepubli ran*, thst “Georgiahad violated her obligations snd failed to enrry ont in good faith the Be- construction Acta of Conoreae, inaamuch as the Legislature of tho State had organized with tho negroes in their seats, elected Senators and many other officers, transacted much of the ne cessary business of the State, and then, npon grounds pnrely of race and color, ejooted them from their rightful placea.” Owing to tho great pressure of business, this hill failed to obtain a second reading, and ex pired with the unfinished business of the 40th Congress. Senslors Hill and Miller had appeared at tho bar of tho Senate, in December, nnd presented their credentials. These credentials were refer- red to a seleot committee. This committee re ported to the Senato adversely to tho claims of Messrs. Hill snd Miller. This committee setting forth in its report, that “tho State of Georgia hod fniled to comply with the reconstruction sets of Congress, and. therefore, had no right to representation in the Senato of tho United States." The expulsion of the negroes being the solo esnse alleged for the non admission of the Senators from Georgia. Immediately after this action of tho Senate, Mr. Bontwell, of Moss., then Chairman of tho Reconstruction Committee of the House, drafted the following resolution: “Resolved, That the State of Georgia not hav ing complied with tho reeonstrnction acta of Con gress, has no right to representation on the floor of this House.” If this resolution had passed, it would have instantly expelled every Representative from Georgia. Mr. Bontwell had called a meeting of tho Re construction Committee to act on this resolution. A majority of the members of that Committee have agreed informally to vote for it. There was a fortunate delay in tho formal meeting of the Committee. In the meanwhile tho Georgia Legislature had undev^onsideration a resolution referring the question of negro eligibility to office in the State of Georgia to tho Supremo Conrt of that State, thus signifying its willingness to abide by the decision of that Conrt in the premises, rix: (ho question of negro eligibility to office generally, and particularly to seats in the Legis lature. It was understood by plain men at homo that the Legislature, doubtful of its action in regard to its negro members, referred the matter to the Courts. It was so understood at the North. It was so meant to be understood. Our friends. North and Sonth, gained to us important con- fcessions nnd saved us from terriblo confusion I by this obvions interpretation. When Mr. Bontwell was asked by Gen. Young, onr Representative, in what particular Georgia had failed to comply with the Reconstruction acta, he answered: “In bnt ono instance—the act of the Legislature expelling the colored members—that it was an outrage—not only a violation of tho Reconstruction nets, bnt of the Constitution and laws of Georgia.” When informed that tho Legislature of Geor. gia bad under consideration tho resolutions re ferring the qneation to tho Courts, ho said: ‘He was glad of it, and that if the colored mem. hew were reinstated, it would settle the ques- bon finally.” He was then informed that Gen. Grant was opposed to Congress interfering with tho Stato of Georgia. Ho replied that, “He wonld liko to know Gen. Grant’s views on the subject, bnt that in the meanwhile he wonld press his reso lution to expel the Georgia members." General Yonng immediately called on Gen eral Grant at his office, informed General Grant of Boutwell’s resolutions, and the probable ac tion of the House npon it, and asked him in the L nMn ® °f the people of Georgia to use his influ ence with Bontwell and others to cause the reso lutions to be withdrawn, or at least, to get the matter postponed until the action of Georgia in regard to the expelled negroes was ascertained. General Grant, as soon as possible, saw Bout- *ell and caused him to postpone tho matter, •tating that the Legislature either had referred or would refer the question of negro eligibility to her courts, and tint tbo State would abide by the decision of tho courts. Whether we l>o friend or foe of the present administration, it is beyond doubt that General Grant prevented tho eligibility in that State to the Supreme Court of Georgia. Thia resolution was passed by the Democratic member*, with but one dissenting voice. The advice of the caucus was telegraphed to Georgia and soon after the resolution was passed by the Legislature. At the same time there was another delegation in \N ashington, from Georgia, urging moderate Republicans to defeat Sutlers bill, as the State and Legislature wonld certainly abide by the law as it should bo adjudicated by the Courts. _ Messrs. Bingham, Farnsworth, Schenck, and Garfield, (Republican), opposed the bill and se cured its defeat, on tho grounds that “the Leg islature of Georgia had referred the matter to the Courts, and that the people of Georgia, if let alone, would abide by the decision of the Courts.” The new (41st) Congress was organized on the 4 tli of March, and Mr. Butler, of Massachu- setts, was appointed Chairman of the Recon struction Committee in the House of Represen tatives. In a few days ho introduced a bill to “regulate matters in Georgia.” This bill was the same in substance with tho ono introduced by him in December. This bill was read once and referred to the Reconstruction Committee, of which he was chairman. The bill was dis cussed and agreed to by tho committee, and Mr. B. was directed to report it to the nouse, with a recommendation that it pass. This was done about tho 1st of April. A Republican delegation from Georgia was then in Washington, urging the passage of But ler's bill, on the ground “that the Georgia Leg islature passed the resolution referring the mat ter of negro eligibility to the Courts as a blind; that it was done in bad faith, and that tho Stato would not abide by tho decision of the Courts, shouid they decide in favor of tho negro.” Snch Is a plain historical sketch of this vexed a uestion. It renders it evident that the reaolu- on of tho Georgia Legislature was a waver of its right iu this instance to decide upon the qualification of its members, leaving the deci sion to the Courts. Otherwise its resolution was simply silly. Tho right of the Courts to decide the general constitutional qneation of negro eligibility, no one doubted. Tho case bad been mado and the decision wonld have been bad, without ono word, for or against, from the Legislature. That body, by its reso lution, and of its own motion, placed itself in the bands of tho Conrts to decide this question for it. It web so understood by Gen. Grant, when he nrgod Bout well's delay. It was so un derstood by Bontwell when he withdrew his reso lution. It was so understood by Democratic members when a full caucus advised its passage, and it was so understood by the moderate Re- lublicans who defeated Bailer's bill, and it may >e added, it was so understood (at tbo time of its passage) by tho people of Georgia. Wo were saved from tho instant expulsion of onr Representatives, by the promise of this resolution; wo were saved from the ignominy and hardships which wonld have followed the passage of Butler’s bill, by Us adoption. The question now with tho Legislature is simply one of good or bad faith, of honest deal ing or trickery. If that body keeps its faith, it will undergo a great hnmiliation ; it will submit itself, for time, to an unmitigated and most of fensive nnisance, bnt it will have preserved its honor. If it breaks its faith, it will paralyze onr friends, give edge snd power to the weapons of onr enemies, and cover ns with dishonor. There is no alternative. Tho expelled blacks must be restored to their seats in the Legisla ture. “Noteletto oblige." To falter in the set of duty because it la nauseous, painful or hu miliating, is to sully the proud name of Gxonoia*. Otitiltl I!«<■ Vi'KrorN to lie llesi'alcil in the I.eglsluturo ? Editor* Telegraph: This is now the live question in Georgia polities, and truly it is a grave one. The negro members were excluded from their seats, because it was believed by the Legislature that they were ineligible. If tbo Legislature had stopped just here, the question wonld have been free of some of the tronblos that attend it Most unfortunately the Legislature, at a subsequent date, adopted joint resolutions, in which pledges were made that tho people of the Stitc would abide the deci sions of the Courts upon the question. These resolutions were rather vague and indefinite. They did not, in explicit terms, bind the Legis lature to conform their action to the resnlt of such judgment that might bo made upon the quostion. But it is due to truth and history, to state that the purpose sought to be accomplished by their passage was to meet an emergency then pressing na by the threatened passage of tho Butler bill by CongTess. They furnished our friends at Washington with a strong and effec tive weapon of defence, and by skillful manage ment in their use, the passage of said bill was defeated. Pledges—unequivocal assuram were made for us that our people wonld submit to the decision of our Courts. It is true thst the members of tho Legislature, when voting for those resolutions, had every confidence that our Conrts wonld decide this question just as it had been settled by the General Assembly, snd this honest conviction that they had acted right made it a very easy matteT for giving their con sent to those resolutions. It shows that they had acted honestly and justly in the matter. Subsequently the case of White was brought before Judge Schley, at Savannah, and in an able and masterly ergnment delivered by him on the case, ho decided tho qnestion as it had been settled by the Legislature. This case by Writ of Error was taken before onr Supreme Court, and after a full and able investigation of the question, tho decision of the Conrt, by a majority of its members, reversed the judgment of Judge Schley—two of the Judges concurring that under tho Code of Georgia, negroes were entitled to hold office. And this is the law of that case, and to that extent and no farther is it a settlement of the question. If the Conrt had been unanimous, that under the Constitution, negroes aro eligible to office, then it wonld have been an authoritative adju dication of the qnestion, binding npon all the subordinate departments of the Stato. Not be ing unanimous, but being in fact three distinct and different opinions, in which there was an entire absence of any concurrence whatever except in the conclusions arrived at by two of the Judges, whilst it is a settlement of tho rights of the parties thereto and the law of that case, it is not binding on the Court itself or their suc cessors. It is not—nor would it have been of binding force npon the General Assembly—even if it it had been unanimous, for the Constitu tion makes each House tho sole judge from which there can be no appeal. And it is unfor tunate, therefore, that these resolutions are adopted. The decision of the Conrt has been different from what was anticipated, and in my humble judgment that decision is erroneous. Bnt we have given assnrances that we wonld stand by it when made. Wo have been benefited—vastly benefited—by these declarations, and it now bc- e.uut s a matter ef honor and character with us : ) stand by this argument. The highest character that a people can make is: the reputation of standing by the law and conforming to the judgment of the Courts.— Such a people are worthy of all confidence, and especially so, when the decision of the Conrts is at war with their preconceived opinions, pre judices and convictions. The sentiment is a true and noble one, that the only safe-guard for life and property is in the supremacy of the law. If a law is bad and wrong, execute it that more valuable to us than the poor gold of earth. Unsullied honor is a priceless jewel, of itself—it h a rich vein of wealth to any people. We have thus created expectations of us—it is claimed of us that we are thus committed on the question. Shall we fulfill these expecta tions ? Their performance involves a sacrifice of sentiment, lute and pride, but it cannot be said of us ever afterwards that this great wrong was “self-imposed.” When the historian shall tell of the statesmanship of these times, it, in my opinion, will stand high in the class of ‘ ‘court wrongs” fastened upon us. From it we cannot escape, it is our fate, and it is better to allow it to be imposed upon us, and strive to become masters of the situation. When, as a free peo ple, we have the right to review and pass upon all these questions that have arisen under the new era, we can then pass upon this and all other measures: and then by the best lights we may have, we can change, remodel, im prove or sustain. Then, and not until then, can we as a people be responsible for onrStales. The statesmanship of those in after days may adjudge that this is all right and proper. If public safety and public good will be secured thereby, these measures will bo sustained ; if not the public will can remould and recon struct our reconstructora. Let the colored members take their seats. We cannot escape it- We are pledged to it by the expectation of enemies and friends. Let ns discharge ourselves from any suspicion of a want of (pod faith in this unpleasant matter. To do this requires a degree of moral courage that is not common in these days. It will en- connter the soom of the unthinking masses, and that is more difficult it must be accomplished at the expense of our own preferences. Let it be remembered that “he that rnleth his own temper is greater than he that taketh a city. “PoCQHfcKII.” Bagging, Salt and Ties.
