THE STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. A reporter of the Constitution called upon, Col. Toni Hardeman, chairman of the estate Central Committee of the Democratic party of this State. The reporter's mission was to learn the rea sons of the Executive Committee fir taking the action which is bei lg so se verely criticized in other portions State. Mr. ’Hardeman very kindly furnished 'us with /he desired dots. TH'e 'which was a I n<l which has caused tne vials ot wrath to be uncorked, rea ls as follows : “Resol veil, Hi at a convent ion n' Con gressional Districts be called by the Ex ecutive Committee of each D stri ct on Wednesday, the 2>lh day of April, at such places as each District Couiiaittee shall select, to nominate two alternates each to the Nati nal Democratic Con vention, and that said District Conven tions nominate lour unaius as delegates at large ; and if the said District Con vestion* shall fail to agree in the selec lion of the same lour delegates at large, they shall empower the State Democratic Executive Committee to select from the nninro rr<Tfffln:lted rot IT delegates ror me State at large fro u all the naulek deiig hated.” Col. Hardeman explains the abovo resolution by calling attention to the fact that had a Convention been called to select the district delegates, the proba bility stood that the people would be cAUed upoh to attend throe Conventions ‘during the year. in these hard times this was not deem ed advisable an 1 as this was the lea >t important a flair, it was delegated to the District Conventions, When in .State Convention the district delegates a’ways present the names of their delegates and alternates, bo that by duing this at home the matter of economy is gained. The delegates' at large are to lie voted cn by the districts and the Executive Committee, in case none ot the names are elected by cliar majorities will name the tour receiving the highest votes, and they will be the delegates. This is no innovation and is fair an I harmless. TIIK NATIONAL COMMITTEE. Gen. Lawton was chosen to fill the Va ancy from Georgia in the Xit tonal Committee, and will attend its meetings. Gen. Gordon was na nod bscause an emergency might arisa needi ig action when Gen. Lawton was not present. There was no design in it. It was as the other notions of the C iinm’tteo, done in tin interests of economy al l efficient Work in tile campaign. Constitution. It HSN SHALL IT BE? Th 1 tnl'nwin; is the text of the Con vention bill passed by the II rue on last Saturday: Section. 1. Be it enacted by the Sen ate and House ot Representatives ot the State ot Georgia, and it is heroby enact ed by authority of the Same. That, ini mediately after the passage ot this Bill, his Excellency the Governoe lie, and he is hereby, authorised and required to Is sue his proclamation, ordering an elec tion to b• held in eaob county in this State on tbe first Monday in January, 1877, for delegates to a Convention ot the peop’e of Georgia, to convene at the Ciq col, in the city ot At'unta, on tnw first Wednesday in March 1877 tor the l urpose ot revising the Ccns.ituUon of said State. Sturiox 2 Bj it f irthar enacted, that said election shall he held and eon lucted in the aame manner and at the same places as elections tor members ot the General Assembly are held in this State, an 1 the returns of said election shall be in the same manner forwarded to trfe Governor, who shall issue certificates of election to a'l perons choseu as delegates to said convention. Section 3. Be it further enacted that lienresentalion in said Convention shall be based upon population, rri the ratio of one delegate to every bi* thousand in habitants; to this end each Senatorial District in this State,' atf the districts ate uow arranged, shall constitute an e lection district, from which delegates of said toiveuliou shall be chosen. 1 We are in favor o! a Convention, but I we are in favor of the question of * Convention or no Convention'' being submit'ed to the |<eop!e, lor their ratifi* .ca'ionor rejection. If the people of 1 1ho Slate can live aider existing laws, we can. We are ia favor of a “Conven tion," but we want this Legislature to call it within its own time, and not as this bill allows infringe on the time and . jurisdiction of the Legislature, which is Ito bo elected in October next. If we are going to have reform and retrench ment, now.ia'theVme, now t>ef<sie an : other deal of the cards. The leaders of the House have, they imagine, shown a great amount of wis dom and foresight in'Tho disposition ot the “Convention question." Hut you will find gentleme;..ti's “too thin.” It wont pan out when jour constituents begin to wa ll out the ore that you think you have brought to the surface. You must have the manhood to meet this ah important question. Now is your time, and while you are in office, not shift it off on your successors. The next week or the next year will not do; now or never, so far as you are concerned. You can’t make Governors, Congressmen, Senators, Legislators, dec. die. of your selves by dodging this “Convention question." The people can t lie fooled in that way. You must “stand to the rack, fodder or no fodder.” We hope the .Senate will cither kill the bill as it now stands, or amend it, so as to rclei the question of “Convention or no Convention” to the people. Let the people have a change, we can trust them. So ought you. LEGISLATIVE SUMMARY. In the Senate the hill creating the Ap palaohee Circuit was lost. Hills were passed exempting from taxation cotton and other products of the previous year in the hands of the pro lunar on the first of April i amending homestead law; BU.‘ pending the statute of Imitations as to liens on properly protected by home stead ; allowing I’. Thwest to sue the State; regulating fees of Tax Col lector and Deceiver. In the House bills were passed amend ing the act for the prevention of cruelty to auinials; calling a Constitutional Convention, the delegates to be elected on the first Wednesday in January ilex’, and the Convention to be held the first Wednesday in the folio wingJMarch ; re quiring Ordinaries and other officers to report in writing to the Grand Jury; incorporating the llaj-per Sewing Ma chine Company of Atlanta. Lawloil, Mpeer and Can Her mile the best speeches in favor of the Convention bill. 'i,.con, iloge aud Livingston nude strong speeches ag&inst it. SPIRIT OF TIIE GEORGIA PRE?S. The Atlanta papers made a li ir 1 tight against the Convention bill. The Herald seemed to tear Judge James Johnson as a candidate for Governor, and was also aft aid that Gen. Toombs might be elected a delegate to the Con vention. The Savannah News pitches into the Constitution for publishing a full report of Geu. Toombs’ speech in favor of a Convention. The Columbus Enquirer remonstrates against the on' icing away of farm labor' ers by emigration agents- The Rome Courier thinks murders are becoming too common throughout the State, and advises Gov. Smith lb off. r a reward tor the capture of the murderers. The Augusta Chronicle believes in doing justice to the Legislature, and asss “What has it done that it should be sneered at, ridiculed an l villitied." Most of tlie State papers arc strongly in favor ol a dog i’Aw. Ham is the best constructor of mar riage and obituary notices that we kuow anything about. The readers ot the Clipper ah want to marry ci die. • The La Grange Reporter thinks it would be a waste of money for the State to purchase 1,00.) copies of Judge llop> kins new book itt $7 per vo utne. Harris, ot the Savaunah News says that all true poets have ears twenty' seven inches long. Harris is a poet himself, and ought to know. TOOUnS OS TBS COSTSSTI )S questios. An immense crowd of legislators amt citizens assembled at the Capitol, in At lanta, the other night id hear General Toonibs. The old veteran ui uie ft characteristic and reckless speech. lie said that the ofganic law of the Suite ought to be changed because it was not our law. The people of Georgia never ma le it. It was made by poor, ignorant savages, led by rogues, and to perpetuate the power of rogues. It was nude by nig g’ers and thieves—it is a nigger constitu tion constructed by kuaves an l carpet baggers. For these and other reasons, - ' the speaker was in favor of a Constitutional Convention. He did not iudieate any particular reforms that weto needed,’ bnl struck some pretty heavy blows at exist ing evils! MEXICAN WAR VETERANS.

State ov Georgia, Department of AatncuLTintE. Atlanta, January 31st, 1876. Dear Sir : In compliance with Sec. 3, and the first clausa of Sec. 6, of the Act of 28th February, 1871, cieating this Department, and for the purpose of car vying out the object of the law, Prof - John T. Humphreys has been appointed Naturalist and Entomologist of the De partment, They read as follows : 3, BiA'l Commissioner shall have urder his mpecisl charge the study of .the various in sects that are injurious to the crops, plants and fruits of this State, their habits and prop agation ; and he shall, at various times,las he may deem proper. fisue-.*iiiculiu-K for distribu tion as af.oiesaid in this State, to the proper mod'- for their destruction, and any informa tion upon said subject %t h$ Pjqy deem of interest to the planters, f:rm('r afid horticul turists of this State.” ”, “5. Said Commissioner shall have under his especial charge the diseases of the grain, fruits and other crops of this State, and he shall, at various times, report upon any remedy for Baid diseases or any useful information up on said subject.” | 4 . Prof. Humphrey*; V-h entered upon the discharge of his duties, and 1 earn estly request the Fanners of Georgia to aid him ip his labors and researches in every way in their power. It is to be hoped tint some means of preventing the ravages of insects which are so de. structive to our crops, may be discover ed. • ... w; Professor Humphreys ha* prepared flic following ; and 1 trust every farmer faio whose hands it may com •, will do what lif. can to aid in this iituAov*".'*- work ; “Examine the dead lirnb.i of.yqur fruit t£e<!s, ] collect the eb-wcbg and dried leaves stilt} hanging on the branches, and seieot- those specimens which contain any evidence ofivilf;;, either in the iorm of an egg, a worm or a pupa' case of an insect. Dig around the roots of your trees ir. the forest, and collect the bugs, beetles, worms or centipedes ; and, if possible,, capture the flies and moths which may be fly ing about. Place the bugs, beetles and worms in a paper-box, and the eggs in an envelope, and Bend through the mail. Be certain to mention the kind of tree on which, or aiound which, each bug or worm tnay be found. Your immediate attention is called to this •startiug point, as your promptitude will as sist very much in the preparation of tlio next Circular. The calender of insects for next March will be arranged from the specimens sent during the month of Eerbuary-” Hoping that you will give die alien, tiou, observe the instructions of l’rot. Humphreys, and %eud specimens of in sects to ibis Department, Very Respectfully, Thomas P. Janes. Commissioner of Agriculture- The Covington Star is in favor of amending the present Convention Bill so as to bring on the election of dele gates in July and boll the Convention in August of the present year. Our contemporary has hit the nail oti the head, and we endorse him fully. THE CONVENTION BILL. The following editorial from tbe At lanta Herald, of yesterday is so much to tbe point that we publish it entire : Tlie Legislature has passed a bill call ing a convention to meet in the city of Atlanta on the first Wednesday tn March, the election to be held for 198 delegates on the first Wednesday in Jan uary. Before tlie election of delegates ♦o tins convention an entirely new Leg islature will have been elected and be fore the convention will meet, this Leg islature will have concluded its labors and adjourned. A Governor will have been elected and inaugurated and all ot his appointments made! All this will happen under the present constitution. The legislature, we in tend- to remedy this by a resolut on de claring that all appointments. made by flie Governor shall hold their office for the term prescribed by the Constitution to be framed by ti e ConvebtlOti whjch will assemble id March. Just here we apprehend there will be trouble. Can the L'egislture by a mere resolution prescribe and iff re tit tenures from those under which these officers are el acted 1 Can a resolution of the Leg islature repeal a law ot the Legislature? Under the present Constitution and laws ot the State a Governor is elected to serve for four years. Suppose tbe Con vention shall undertake to shorten this term and the Governor refuses to*vacate What process can be resorted to to com pel him? It we remember correctly, this very question it was, which gave riso to ail the trouble ia Arkansas*, between the rival Governors, aud we make the sug gestion this morning in order that the Semt may take the matter into consid eration, and it there is any force ia them provide a remedy "XTi* $ a a aag> *_ Tiie A'.-m-m Cotffe FwWy arc pngre*ing rapidly, and iO.OuO KoinUien are ordered lor Auyus * otiler factory is to be stalled soon. ————— * .

The heirs of the Jennings Estate, cnav ** tv Onnuvvj u, L j , near thirty yearn ago, have assembled in Augusta, to hear the report ot their lawyer, Judge Bacon, of Columbia, S.

Judge Bacoti is quite hope-1 fill of the success of the claim made by I Ins clients, nearly a hundred in number, representing the ' descendants of W'n. Jennings,' who died in 1798. The amount involved has been valued at- va nous sums, from torty to four hundred millions ot Dollars. Judge Bacon in hie address lieloro the claimants puts it at 150 millions. The Atlanta Commonwealth judges from what it can learn from persons vis iting that city from the country, “ihat Geu. L, J.

He was a man of ability and integrity and was highly esteemed. He was born on the 7th of August, 1803, at Amherst, Mass. He came South, studied law, and by his industry and energy, was distin guished as a lawyer and judge.

Someone claims to liave discovered a curious coincide live in the winters of 1776 and 1870. It is claimed that the former was open and balmy, as the present certainly lias been thus tar. During the whole winter of 17 1 6, the English armv was shut up in Hostor, and watched by Washington, with his ten thousand half-armed, half-drilled soldiers. He intended to make ru at tack on the British in the city as soon as the harbor was frozen, but the mild ness of the winter prevented the wa ter from freezing so as to bear the weight of troops, and a bloody battle, and perhaps to the undisciplined A men cans a disastrous defeat, was spared. _Bald Mountain is again on the grunt.
