Ccnvca tlou «:» tlie subject of Vacat ing tiia »,01>0 civil OlHeersof tiie .State, and re-appoinling: t!ic same. The remarks of Mr. Trammel were to the effect that the purpose ol Ash bum's resolution was to crush out the 1 st vestige of civil government now remaining in Georgia, and he hoped to Fiive the State from a day so dark, and would therefore urge upon the Con vention the adoption of his substitute. Jl there was no intention to wrest from Gen. Meade the power he enjoys, and if there was no want, of confidence in the ability of that officer to forward in a proper manner the matter of recon' sirueiion, .ere was an opportunity to so express themselves. I'iie issue was a plain one, but it wouid not be met. The triu purpose was plain to the v xde country. There were vulture b *aks seeming the 'flesh pots,’ and the q i enii.xi >1 spoils would be brought to an easy solution if the civil govern* nient <>f Georgia could be swept out ot existence— Here Mr. Trammel was requested to yield (lie lloor in order to have a read ing of the Ashburr resolution, when .Mr. Trammel gave way to Dr. H. V. M. Miller, who desired to remark up* on it, and did so at considerable length. II is line of argument was able and conclusive, and Ids opposition to a scheme so mendacious was open and in an IV, It was the legitimate business of this Convention to make a Consti tution for Georgia, but he had observ ed, from day to day, no matter what sort of a beginning was made in the morning, that before two o’clock (the hour for adjournment) arrived, the Convention would veer around, and a dash would he made at the Treasury, o* some effort looking to the spoil s of office roar its (Applause in the lobby.) Tnat was a poor way to make a Constitution. He alluded to the letter of.John She-man, M. 0., read on the previous day, and criticis ed it sentence by sentence. It seemed that someone in the Convention had intimated to that gentleman that there were fears about reconstruction. How afraid ? Not if personal violence, cer tainly, for there was law, civil and military, to protect every man. The Convention was assuredly in peaceful assemblage, and nothing within the limits of tha State to make it afraid.— Its duty was plain and specific?—the military bill clearly stated what was to be done. Then why had Mr. Slier* man teen informed that fears were entertained about reconstruction ! And what more power did the Convention want that Mr. Sherman should send and request that it he asked for? (The speaker pursued this at some length, hut want ol space will not allow us to 1 .llow him.) Lit. thought the Ashburn resolution was discourteous to General Meade. In fact, it implied a want of confidence in, anil amounted to little * Ise than a direct insult to that distin guished soldier. Lie eould not vote for the resolution because it would be say ing to Congress, to the country, and to (Jen. Meade himself, that ho had no confidence in him. He was not pre pared to say that the General would tiot I'.iitiifully perform his duties, for lie ! til not been tried, lie believed, and hoped that he would. In regard to the 0 splaci meut of civil officers (the only purpose of the resolution) Dr. Miller said that such a step was not necessary to the completion ol the work this body had been created to do. There were io the State about 6000 civil officers, and should Congress be stupid enough to trraot the power asked, it was utterly impracticable for this Convention to lid that number of places with loyal men. It would take until the next fl md to do it. From the difficulty experienced in officering this body at the outset, be was safe in asserting that there would be wrangling for at least a week, in many instances, in finding a suitable person to fill a bailifl’s office, not to mention others of more iinpor* t nice and more pay. Thus it would operate, and the idea of this Conven- tion taking charge of the six thousand civil offices in the State was too ab surdly redicnlous to be entertained for a moment ! The State ot affairs in this once proud old commonwealth under such a pretty reign of power would indeed be amusing! (Applause in the lobby, when J. E. Bryant asked that the lobby be cleared. Chair said such would be done it it was not stopped.) Think of the aspirants, continued the speaker, w hose claims would at once he urged for the Gubernatorial Chair. njj man who happened to be within the borders of the State would be eligi ble. It did not matter, under the reso lution, if he had only resided here 1J hours. A gentleman from I imbuctoo, Katuschatli a. or the chief of the Ara pahoe Indians, il he should chance to get the inside track, would step into the chair of the State Executive. Even the leader of the Savannah delegalir n ( Aaron Alpeoria) might be placed in the position, lie could not find lan guage to depict a proposition so im measurably rediculou* / (Repeated ap- plause in the lobby.) G. W. Ash bum arose to inquire it civil officers were not required to take an oath ? And if so. had those now in position taken that oath. If they had not were they legal officers? All who had or could take it, were eligible and might remain, perhaps. The resolu tion said nothing about removals, and be did not see why the gentleman from j Fulton should harp ou that point so ! much. Dr. .Miller replied that she present officials were in position and had not taken such oaths; and while tiie reso lution did not say as much, a man with one idea could see taut no one ol them ! could retain their places u”der the I resolution. They wire men of honor, I and would not perjure tiiPinfelves. — I They differed from the multitude now j clamoring for displacement, for they could swear to anything—could take any oath. (Ashburn in constant in terruption, aided by several negro delegates.) The absurdity he contin ually heard about there being no law in Georgia was all wrong. We had the ! laws Georgia always had—provisional though they he. Everything done was legal, for the very Military bill which i created this body made it so. Over* ! throw the present civil government of Georgia and this Convention becomes a body en permanence. It must remain in session to wield the Legislative and Judiciary power of the State. Ashburn said that this Convention would remain in session until Georgia was restored to the Union. “Precisely.” replied Dr. Miller. “I am obliged to the gentleman for his canJor. lam well aware that uis not the purpose of this Convention to ad journ. If the people ol Georgia reject the Constitution, here you will remain in perpetuity to grind tiie already downtrodden people—and to further wrong and outrage them. Such a pro gramme is monstrous , violative of every principle ol civil liberty, and can only end monarchy! Your Constitution is mere clerical labor until the people of the Stale shall give it vitality. The Military bill imposes that task upon them. The people were indifferent about the Convention, and hence the small vote upon the question. They knew that it was left them to condemn or approve its action, and they held hack to vote on tiie Constitution, and lie thanked God that Gen. Mead told this Convention yesterday that the people should have a fair chance to decide the question at the ballot boy.. The power sought by the resolution he free to tax without limit, control, and ruin this or ce great State. (Con stantly interrupted by Ashburn.) It was an eflort ol persons now in acci~ dental position to usurp power. (In terrupted by half dozen negro dele gates.) We stand here not the repre sentatives of the property of Georgia, and it becomes us to use care how we usurp rights, or interfere with that property and people. The form ol government sought to be set up by the resolution is worse than the mind ot man ever before conceived. It is a species of Jacobinism ot which the people ol Georgia should he warned in time. The people should know that this Convention, instead of confining itself, to its 1 gitiinate business of mak ing a Constitution, seeks to wield a power not belonging to it, and a power that will ruin them. (Dunning and Ashburn both rose to a question..) It was boldly charged outside that this Convention does not [impose to make a Constitution that the people cun ac cept. 1 the people should reject, the Convention would not care, for the power would be in its hands. He did not charge that such was its intention, but was compelled to admit that the proposed measure looked that way, and he desired to lift his voice against it, and he would to God that he could make it resound in the halls of Con gress. [The reporter regrets that lie can give but an imperfect report of Dr. Miller’s able and rnanlv speech.] A. T. Akerrnan followed, lie de sired to approve much that the gentle man had said. It was evidently the purpose of the Convention to get pos session of all the offices in the Stales. There were, in his opinion, but two persons who had the power to remove civil officers —Meade and Giant. lie thought some officers should be re moved, and would he, hut lie was opposed to the Ashburn resolution.— Mr. Akerman’s remarks were extended to some length, but want of space will not permit us to follow him. He concluded by offering an amendment to the Ashburn resolution, in the event it should pass, to the effect that nr, man in this Convention shall accept a civil office. J. E. Bryant made a rambling speech in defence ot the measure, during the delivery of which Mr. Waddell asked him if be would accept the Akerman amendment. This question lie evaded at the time, but being subsequently, pressed to an answer, said that s > far as he was individually concerned he would. Mr. Trammel inquired if he would accept the Military Bill as it is, and close the whole argument. Bry ant dodged again, and promised to answer alter a while. He thought the government set up in 1865 should be abated ; it was troublesome ; he wanted to know if ibis was a legal body—ts this Convention or tiie disloyal gov- ernment of the State is to have the power. It is a vital question, and should be decided. Let us remove the men now in office, put our friends in their stead, and a vast difference would be made in votes in the ratification election. General Sheridan was thir man for him —he had the nerve to act. He had heard that General Rousseau would be sent to command this Dis trict. and bis course would prove sim ilar to that of Hancock. He would not favor the resolution if be bad any assurance that Gen. Meade would re main here, but down would corne Gen. Uosseau to ride rough-shod over the people of Georgia. Therefore, let us act now while we have the power —it is necessary to our salvation. He wanted the Constitution ratified, and it would be done if the proper measures were taken. The proposed measure would have that effect, and so we must, adopt it. It is the opinion of very distinguished men that this Convention should be paid out of the Stale Treas ury, yet an order to that end has been tn-ated tv it If contempt. Here is an obstruction to our operations, and we should not hesitate to remove it. We are charged with an effort to get our hands into the Treasury. Well, is it not better that tlxsa hands should be loyal than disloyal? Os course, lie would admit that me power which the resolution asks for should not be grant ed save under extraordinary circum stances, and surii now surround us.— The emergency is an extraordinary one. It must be met. He favored a postponement of the question until Monday. As the gs mleroan was tak ing his seat, Mr. Waddell pressed his question as to the Military bill, when Bryant answered (hat he would, with some alterations or amendments, or changes.

Convention white delegates offered some resolutions in that body, on last Tuesday, making the qualifications of voters hinge upon being able to read the Bible and Constitution, provided that no free person of color be allowed to-hold any office in the state, and furthermore prohibiting the intermarriage of whites and negroes, upon a penalty of from ten to twenty years imprisonment in the pen itentiary or exiled to Africa or Liberia, both on the part of the parties marrying and the officer who performes the ceremony. Efforts were made, on the part of the sable members and their Citerfds, to squelsh the reading of the villainous document, but without success.— Great indignation and wrath was manifested during its reading, it was decided out of order under the rule and was dismissed, when two or three negroes moved that the author him self be sent to Liberia.

The latest intelligence from the City of Washington is that Staunton has walked into the War Office and taken his seat, with his pockets full of greenbacks, drawn for pay du ring his suspi nsion from the functions of his office, and that he had issued his orders tak ing control ot matters about that chebing, and that Gen.

It is not expedited in any spir. it oi partisan prejudice, but from the out-gushings of honest hearts prompted by the love of that sacred instrument known as the Constitutionofthe United States and the execution of the laws under it.

'This is the ob- ject and the only object for which it was indited. It remains to be seen whether the order-loving and peace-a- j biding citizens of the empire State of the Sou.h will still cling to the patriot ic principles of their illustrious forefa thers, who sealed their devotion to these principles with their blood, or whether they will let the madness of the day over-ride their judgements, and doggedlv abandon these principles ar.d tie on to a party whose whole powers are pledged to their everlasting over throw.

One stroke of the pen of tiie Military commander of this District has deprived the State of Georgia of her lawful Gov-i ernor and Treasurer. The very last semblance of State authority is thus swept away and Georgia is a Military province. The entire machinery of State administration and legislation is changed to suit ideas which are foreign to the good people this quondam i State. A Milne* « officer of the Uni- j ted States army is now the Chief Exe- ; outivc and a rabble Con vent ion is the legislative power. Neither the execu- tive nor die Convention is in sympathy with die people. They do not under stand their wants and if they did are totally indisposed to meet them. No sensible man believes that Gov. Jenkins in anywise opposes reconstruc tion or that ins official action obstructs that desirable result. But every body does know he tried to keep Radical fin gers from clutching the monay of the State couira-v to law. The State had better use for her funds than to employ them in th u hire of a number of negroe s at nine dollars per day to sit in a Con vention so called. She could make details enough of the required color from her penitentiary to answer the purpose at no cost at all except the usual rations. But the deed has been done, and it will he remembered. Fhere a.e names now conspicuous in Georgia history which no true man would bear who wishes to transmit a fair memory to his posterity and these are days which the chronicles will refer to a3 the age of greatest odium in the annals of this country. £!o:noicu2ae. With tiie aid of the microscope in numerable minute living things invis ible to the naked sight may he seen,— Our scientific men call these little crea tures animalculae and have vexed them selves a great deal to discover and ex plain tlie purposes for which they were created. In general they are agreed that these insignificant things ate scav engers which do a great deal of the dirty work of the world, while a hirae class of them are breeders of decav and rottenness in every thing which they infest. So also in the genus Homo we discover without microscopic assistance a pestiferous sot of H-.tmolculae who are at this day specially visible particularly scavengeous, and wonderfully prolific in the matter mentioned above. One has only to look over the daily news papers to find their oft repeated names, and if he is curious or at all interested in scientific enquiry let him spend one day in Atlanta where he can inspect a mass of the little things at work. This is the day of small men and their bad deeds. The great and good men of the State are not only out of power but their wise counsels, their enlarged pat riotism, are unavailable to the State.— the Ilomoleulae ol various lengths and colors are working in and through the body politic ofa dead State, feasting and fattening on the putridity of their own creating. We do not covet their place nor envy them their stomachs' Uiieinplojedlegrocs. Already does the Radical rule begin to tell sadly on the deluded negro, who is likely to become a miserable victim of the folly of his pretended friends.— But for Radical legislation against Southern agricultural and Commercial interests every able bodied negro man, woman and ehild throughout the South would to-day have been constantly em ployed at remunerative wages. But in their venom against the Southern plan ter, the Radicals have ruined the pros pects of the negro. He is literally in a starving conditon in a large part of the South and is hopelessly poor every where. Employment for these labo rers is not being offered for the current year and their labor last year left nei ther them nor their employers any sur- plus after expenses were paid. Wiio is so blind as not to see that all tins re sults from the embarrassment which the Radicals have created ! Much of the negroes indisposition to labor has been caused or encouraged by the false iiopes whispered to him by bis treacherous friends :—lnfilled radical Currency has aided to keep everything which he had to buy exclusively high : and radical taxation, and that radical management which has inspired the ballanee of the world to compete with us in cotton culture have all joined together to cause a short crop and to bring the price oj that Staple below a remunerative rate. Hence the Radicals are working to keep the negro forever in abject, squal lid poverty. He is adrift, now, w ithout shelter, without employment, without money, without clothes and without food. Will he continue to follow hi? task master? Yes he will, until he and they go down together.
