CAN GKOUU1A VOTE IN VIIK PRESI
DENTIAL ELECTION I
We copy i*lse where in this paper what is
called the “Omnibus Admission Bill,” not
only because we wish to direct particular at
tention to tiie provisions specially relating
to Georgia, but because the version of the
bill published by m the other day was incor
rect in material features.
Thu bill attaches this qualification or con
dition to the restoration of Georgia to repre-
sedation in Congress: that “the General As
sembly of said State shall, by soleinu public
net, declare the assent of said State” to the
amendment of the Constitution required by
Congress; which amendment is theaunullin;
of t ie “Belief'’ or repudiating provisions of
the Constitution. The question then arises,
eau “the General Assembly’* make the
amendment required by Congress, and how ?
We answer, it can, ami annex the article of
the new Constitution providing for amend
meets:
“Art. XII. This Constitution may be
amended by a two-thirds vote of two suc
cessive Legislatures, and by the submission
of the amendment to the qualified voters for
final ratiticasion. But the General Assembly
shall not call a Convention of the people in
the election of delegates to w hich any per-y
a in, qualified to vote by this Constitution,
shall in; disqualified. And the representation
in said Convention shall be based on popula
tion. Nor shall the right of suffrage ever be
taken from any person qualified by tbisCou
stitntion to vote.”
Tno members of the Legislature will have
to be governed b}' this Constitution—will
have to take an oath to observe and support
it before they enter upon their duties. They
must then be governed by the Consti
tution in making any alterations of that in-
strumeut. This will require the asf ent of
two successive Legislatures and the subse
quent ratification by a popular vote. Of
course the amendment c innot be ro ads in
this way in time to allow the Slate to ’.be rep
resented ia Congress and to participate in the
Presidential election, which parlicips tion Is
dependent upon representation in Coi igress.
li may be said that, though Congress has
named the General Assembly as the legisla
tive body to make the amendment, tli e Con
vention can be called together again to do
this work. We suppose that the anticipa
tion of contingencies of this kind wa s what
induced the Convention, instead of adjourn-
lug sine die, to prolong its authority, isubject
to a call tor its re-a.-serabliug by t oe Presi
dent. But even this course will consume
so much time that the State can hardly be
fully qualified to vote iu the Presidential
election The Convention would Leave to
submit the amendment t<* a popular vote;
the to be guilty of the absurdity and usurp
ation of htrikmg from the Constitution a
provision that has just beeu put in and sanc
tioned by the popular vote. Arid ii the
striking out of this amendment should be
submitted lo a popular vote, we think that
- wo can show political tricksters that the
“Uin.'led web” woven by their deceit is
too intricate for their own bauds to un
ravel.
It may bn conternded that the 11th section
ot Article XI ol the Constitution left it to
Congress to rnatou amendments. We copy
that section:
“XI Should this Constitution be ratified
by the people, and Congress accept the same
with any qualifications or conditions; the
Government herein provided for, and the
officers elected shall nevertheless exist aud
continue in the exercise of their several func
tions, aj the Government of this State so far
as the same may be consistent aviili the ac
tion of the United States in the premises.”
Forbearing to comment on the absurdity
of Coogress making a Constitution for the
State, suffice it to say that Congress has not
done so iu this iustmes. It has only named
its condition and required the Legislature to
make the amendment conforming to it.
There may be no great difference, in the
spirit ot the thing, between Congress doing
the work itself and making the Legislature
do it. But the Radical Congressmen see tho
necessity of some plausible observance of Ihe
old tortus of our system of government, and
therefore, while constraining the people ot
the South to do certain things, refrain from
directly asserting the power of Congress to
do them. _ , . v.
If Congiess has already amended lheCon-
stilulion ol Georgia by striking out the “Re
lief” provisions, action on the matter by the
Legislature is superfluous tomfoolery.
Congress has only demanded ot the Legisla
ture that it shall make the amendment, the
Legislature must proceed iu conformity with
ihe requirements of the Constitution as to
the mode of making amendments.
It appears to us, therefore, that the Legis
lata re of Georgia has a preliminary work to
do, so t dious in its stages as to forbid its
completion in time for the State to partici
pate in the Presidential election. It mav bo
Unit this is just what Congress desired to
bring about, the Presidential vote of the
State being generally regarded as doubtlul.
Whatever may have been the motive, we
hope that our'Democratic and Conservative
Wads in the L *gislalure will permit the
Radicals of that body to flounder in the
sough into which they have fallen by tof-
l"fciug the humbug “Relief,”uutil tho Presi
dential election ia over, before lending a
hekiug baud to extricate them.

Bloody Work at Port-aa-Prlnce—British
and American Naval Commander*
Tni-eaten to shell the Fort*—insurgent
Manifesto Against salnave, etc., etc.
By the arrival at Netv York of the Albert
Emerson, from Port-au-Prince, in eight days,
we have Haytien advices to the 5th mstan\
President Salnave was shut up at Port-au-
Priuce by the insurgents, whose forces were
dully on the increase. On the 3d of Juue
they made an attack on the city, and suc
ceeded iu capturing one of the forts, but
they held it tor only a short time, and after a
fight of two hours they were repulsed, with a
loss of about one hundred iu killed aud
wounded on both sides. Salnave’s troops
gave no quarter to the enemy, and all taken
were killed without mercy. The same day
Sal nave’s cavalry attacked the insurgentsiu
another quarter; but were ia" turn; driven
back into the city. A general attack upon
the city was expected on the Gth instant, aud
it was feared that should the President be
detested, he would carry out his threat to
set tire to the city. Air ady a part of the
suburbs has been given to the dames, the
property thus destroyed including a fi e
villa belonging to General Faulert, the leader
of the insurgents in the South.- i, ‘ _•
Everything betokens ’ a desperate and
bloody struggle. On the 31st of May the
diplomatic body, consisting of the American
Minister, and the French, English aud Span
ish Charge d’Ali'aires hud-an interview with
Saluave, who declared to them his determi
nation not to yield to his antagonists, and to
hold his position under all circumstances,
stating that aDy disaster which should hap
pen to the city would be the fan It-of the rev
olutionists. On the 2J of Juue he addressed
a dispatch to the French Charge d’Affaires,
instructing him to have the Seminary ot the
French Sisters of Charity removed to town,
and to advise his countrymen not to pass
the pickets of his lines.; The sumo day the
English frigate Phoebe, and the United States
war steamer Penobscot, arriving at Port-au-
Prince from Jamaica, and the commanders
of the vessels had expressed their determi
nation to shell the forts around Port au
Prince should Saluave carry out his threat
to fire the city. Asa measure of precau
lion, tho Penobscot has lupded a fire
eogiue, and should the emergency
ari.-e, her crew will be itfitnediately
landed for the protection of American
property. Arrangements bad also been
made for night signals from the shore to give
the Penobscot the needful information as to
any movement which fcjalnave might make
under cover of the darkuess. On tho third,
Captain Bythesay, of the Phoebe visited the
camp of the Southern insurgents, and a pa
rade of 2,500 men took place during his stay
in the camp. Every man in Port-au-Prince
capable of bearing arms had been pressed iu-
lo service for the defence of the city', aud
even tho domestics in private houses were
employed ia carrying ammunition to the
several forts. All communications between
the city and country had been cut off The
lower orders in ^Port-au-Prince wore nearly
ail in favor of Saluave, and should his troop?
remain tiue to his cause, there is every
probability of the expected fight being a ter
rible aff dr.
The Southern insurgents, under General
Faulert, had published a manifesto, setting
forth the offences of which Salnave had
been guilty. Tho main one wa9, that he
had assumed the dictatorship in the viola
tion of the constitution which be.had sworn
to preserve aud defend. They also charge
him with haviug imprison'd a number of
llaytieu citizens and sentenced them to
death, and with having banished other cit
izens. all contrary lo iaw ; and with having
established such a reign of terror as has
never yet been kuown iu Ilayti. He has
broken all his promises and pledges, they
say, and reproduced iu an aggravated foim
all the worst evils for which the Govern
ment of Geffrard had been overthrown.
The revolutionary comoiitttee had issued a
decree pronouncing null and void and the
acts done by the Salnave Goverment, and
repudiating all the debts incurred aud the
loans contracted by the Government.
Among other things, they charge the Govern
ment with having fraudulently issued, since
the revolutionary outbreak, paper money in
the shape of bills ot the respective values of
$10, $50, and $100, to mislead the people
as to the true state of affairs ; and all such
bills they declare worthless. They also
charge Salnave and his accomplices with
arranging for the manufacture iu London of
forged bonds of the Geffrard Government,to
enrich themselves at the expeuse of the credit
of the country.
Salnave had made overtures to General
Faulert, proposing that it Faulert would
abandon the insurgents and join him (Sal
nave) in fighting against tho revolutionists,
he would relinquish the dictatorship aud lor
the remainder of bis term of office govern
the country according to the Constitution.
Faulert had declined the offers made him by
the President, aud returned au answer to the
effect that nothing would satisfy the Hay-
tiitus short of S-duave’s abdication and de
parture from the country.
Business was at a complete stand still.
Provisions were abundant at Pc>rt-aft-Prince,
but hardly anything was selling. The con
sumption of the town was next to nothing,
aud there could be no shipments to tiiecoatt
towns. There was no produce of : any kiud
coming into the market, and several vessels
iu port would have to be cleared empty
when their lay days expired. Goid was at
GO to G5.
New Account of King Tlwodoruv Death.
Oar European files by the steamship Hir--
mourn, at thisport, convey the following in
teresting accounts, from French sources, of
Theodoras’ last moments:
“The Psr 8 Patrie prints what purports to
be an Abyssinian version of the tragedy at
Magdala. This narrative is signed by Couut
K. du Bisson, a traveller iu Abyssinia, who
was always on friendly terms with its late
ruler. The Count says the number of Abys-
i-iuians buiisd amonuted to 757, while 2.139
were wounded. Among the dead were seven
balantcLerus, or men who had resembled
Theodorus, and were purposely dressed like
him. Theodorus did not commit suicide.
On seeing l|is power Heeling from him with
the blood of firs soldiers, contemplating his
empire destroyed, his dynasty overturned,
hid reign fioished, two streams of tears
coursed down his cheeks. Two baladt-
cheras; pistol in hand, stood silently wailing'
his order. lie gave his will lo one of them.
In the bosom of Trinity,’ said he to the
balautcheras, ‘fire.’ One of them fired, and
his bullet broke the skull of King Theodorus.
Iu Thaodoruis’s will he says: ‘If the British
retire, I desire that, my son Mechecha nfa^
succeed me; and I, Emperor, say to him: Be
the friend of those to whom God hath given
the victory, lor they know how to protect
their friends; be ihe friend of those warriors,,
tor they are invincible.’ ”—Netc York Tribune. -

Negro Buiubau.— Since this corrupt swind
ling machine has been iu our city, the streets
have been thronged more or less every day
with negroes leaving their farms and ueg-
lecting their business, sauntering around the
Bureau office, reporting the best citizens of
the couutry, and forcing them to appear be
fore a creole, or some other specie of the
human race in the shape of a man. to an
swer to inquiries relative lo transactions as
far back as Juue, 18G5; and in many in
stances where there is not the least shadow
of truth in the report of tho negro. We are
not the least surprised to henr of so much
stealing going on in the country, when the
negro is encouraged to quit his work and
hang around the street Corners. They have
got tb liVe whether they work for it or.not.
Wo can expect nothing else thau for them
to steal for a living. From appearances, not
less than from twenty to twenty-five daily
are before the Bureau, which is simply an
other name lor roguery.

The Drought and the Crops.—We are
afraid the corn crop in many counties has
ceived injuries from which it cannot recover.
Upon many fields no rain has fallen for four or
live weeks. This is a sad misfortune, indeed, to
our planters; but we hope the rain will come
in time to save the late corn. will not be
long before that, too, will receive great injury.
Our gardens are about gone up.
Cotton as a general rule is very clean and is
looking remarkably well. Raiu would greatly
improve it, although it has not yet suffered
much. Planters are everywhere anxiously look
up at the clouds and noting every sign of
rain. It was-lightning in the north-Tuesday
night, and every one said it would rain in
twenty.four hours. But the time has run out
and no rain has come.—M<icon Messenger.

“ What is your honorable name V ” •>

called upon the Secretary of War, afid made
a frank statement of his case. He acknow’-

the court; iu the maoner he expected, he
would be forever disgraced. In considera
tion of his position as an officer, and the cir
cumstances connected With his family: he
begged permission to resign. The Secretary
of War Informed him that such a thing as a
resignation after charges had been preferred
was unheard ot in the aunals of military
law, and coutrary to the rule and pra^fice of
the service. But the officer begged oij, and
