®lr. W atldell's Speech.
I he following speech wilt, doubtless
be endorsed by every lover of consti
tutional liberty. It was delivered in
the Convention, a few davs since, pen
ding the discussion of the franchise or
dinance. We commend it to the pe
rusal of all our readers, as it brealhes
the pure spirit of American libertv. It
is peculiarly interesting in these degen
erate times,
J. I). Waddell spoke as follows :
M. President—lt was not mv inten
tion to trouble the Convention with a
single word upon the subject immedi
ately before us ; and I should not now,
but for some remarks which fell from
the delegate from Richmond (Mr.
Bryant.) He complained because al
lusion had been made to the fact that
some of the conspicuous delegates to
this Convention—those oftenest on the
floor—were recent residents of Georgia,
and intimated that in consequence of
that fact a prejudice was endeavored to
be kindled against those delegates of
Northern birth. I have sat in this
Convention nearly forty days, and I
appeal to those around me to know if
twenty ill-natured flings have not been
made at Georgians where one even
respectful allusion has beer, made to
New Englanders. Four-fifths of the
white people of Georgia were rebels,
‘so-called,’ and not a day has been
suffered to pass when those ‘rebels’
have not been denounced, in some
shape or form, by those who have as
sumed the task of‘ingrafting upon the
stock of Georgia ignorance New Eng
land ideas and New England civiliza
tion.’ They seem to have an intense
loathing for those who bore part in the
struggle o f liberty they denounce
them as rebels and traitors. No terms
of reproach are rigorous enough to
characterize them by—no punishment
is severe enough to inflict upon them.
When we tell them we have surrender
ed in good faith—we have laid down
our arms upon the honor of soldiers —
we have abandoned what they call the
•heresy of secession’—henceforth we
mean to stand by the Union under the
Constitution—it is all to no purpose,
all without avail. They are not con
tent. They are greedy for the pound
pease or satisfy them.
Now, sir, I have borne vituperation
long enough. lam not ashamed of my
record
There never was a moment since the
date of my political accountability,
when 1 was not true to the great prin
ciples of popular liberty as laid down
in the Constitution of the United States.
It was precisely because 1 conceived
that that Constitution was practicably
overthrown, that its principles were in
jeopardy, that its spirit and essence
were violated by the election to the
office of Prsident of the United States,
of a sectional candidate upon a section
al platform, that I espoused the cause
ot Georgia, Through her sovereign
voice, she commanded me to avouch
my ballot with my sword. 1 bowed to
her high mandate. Georgia made me
a citizen of the United States. 1 con
ceived she had the right to absolve my
citizenship. She commanded me to
defeat her : the Federal Government
commanded me to crush her. I could
tot obey both masters. I elected with
out hesitation in obedience to the in
stincts of my nature, to stand by
Georgia ; the home of my childhood
and manhood; the graves of my neigh
bors and friends the alters of my
kindred ; the honored ashes ol him
whose name 1 bear. Os whom then
shall Ibe afraid ? Os what shall Ibe
ashamed ? Let me here speak one
word for myself alone, and if my voice
could reach to U'e uttermost bouniJUry
of creation, creation should hear the
declaration. To-day poor as I am, I
would not exchange the memory oi the
part I bore, humble as that part was,
m the noble stiuggle of Georgia to be
free, for the crown the Bourbon lost.
I would not exchange the memoiy of
mv poor part at Manassas. Gettysburg,
and Chickamauga, and a dozen other
proud but melancholy fields lor the best
hope I have. If 1 erred, it was on the
side of my Slate and my section, an
error, if one it he, that stands recorded
in Heaven’s Chancery upon mercy’s
page. I erred too in company with the
best, the brightest and the bravest, of
my Slate. I erred with men whose
names are garnered up in her heart,
whose valor shed unfading lustre upon
her arms, whose fame is among the
jewels of her crown and over whose
hero dust her most precious tears have
been shed.
Mr, Baldwin here interoptftd by in
quiring whether Mr. Waddell still held
to secession ?
Mr. Waddell—Secession was settled
by the war. I accepted the result.—
When I surrendered my sword. I sur
rendered that doctrine. I surrendered
to General Grant, who is a man of
honor, and has kept his pledge. I
have kept, and mean to keep mine.—
Would that I could say as much for
some of his supporters here. My hon
or was pledged, and that is unstained.
But I will not sit silently by ard hear
the memoiy oIT hose who penahed in
ihe effort to make secession glorious
calumniated. Those Christian heroes,
Tom Cobb and Stonewall Jackson,
who baptized your cause and mine, Mr
President, in their blood—who sacri-
fioeti life in maintaining i't —over whoso
graves glory weeps—they are tie
non need by a party on this floor as
traitors to the country, while Butler,
the beast who incited a ruffian soldiery
at iNrw Orleans to violate defenseless
females —who went there a bankrupt in
fortune, as he is now a bankrupt in
fame— w ho grew rich by plunder, rob'
bery, rapine and theft—lie is now a
patriot! Put me down among the
traitors !
Here a large number ol delegates on
the ‘oilier side ;»t the bouse’ rose to
their (eel looking horrified. They
knew well that they possessed the nu
merical strength to crush the speaker
by force, and consequently they were
furious to pounce upon him. Some
had questions to ask, and others had
points of order; but, to the eternal
credit of A. A ( peoria Bradley, be it
said that he never moved, and content
ed himself with an occasional sneer
(intended for a smile, no doubt,) and a
few slighl but ominous shakes of the
head. Alas! the arch rebel had to
succumb to the pressure, and he took
his seat like ail rebels do—overpower
ed, but not conquered.
Now, how under heaven did this
unreconstructed monster get into so
loyal, so gentle, and so pious a body?
Gentlemen, take our word for it, ‘there
is something rotten in Denmark.’—
Watch him Asliburn, Iligbee, Baldwin,
and—but we won’t say any more.—
We had a notion to suggest that one to
Bullock and Blodgett, but they are
“Ticket-of-leave-meu,” and are not
present,
J. Murphy moved to strike out ‘3
months’ and insert ‘3O days.’ Lost.
A. T. Akerman oll’ered two amend
ments to the section, hut as we pre
sume the question will come up in a
day or two we do not publish them. —
He argued his points with his usual
ability.
The AflautaConvenflo!).
We paid a fiying visit to Atlanta, on
Tuesday last, and while there took a
peep in upon the Convention for the
first time. That day had been set
apart lor the investigation of the charg
es preferred against Aaron Alpeona
Bradley, (colored delegate), of seduc
tion. Several speeches were made,
pro and con, during our short stay. —
Some favoring expulsion, and others
against it. We heard the defence of
Mr. Bedford, Bryant, and Clift, all of
whom spoke in favor of the accused,
and also the prosecution by Mr. Crane,
Holcombe and Trammell. The speech
es on both sides were very spirited, and
at times approaching personality.—
There sat the accused, alternately
smiling and snecricg, and occasionally
appealing to the Chair for a point of
order. The casual observer could not
fail to determine, in a very short lengifi
of time, how the case was tending.—
We tried to assume a neutral position,
arguments were conclusive to our mind
as to the guilt or innocence of the
accused. Our mind was made up —
our verdict sealed. The whole matter
was recommitted to the committee and
to-day set apart to receive their report.
So ended the matter.
Upon entering the hall, our eyes
rested upon sights scarcely ever before
anticipated. There in juxtaposition,
sat the white man and the black, cheek
by joul, upon the floor, in open dis
cussion, the two vied with each other;
while, occasionally, might be observed
a sable representative, not careing much
about the iundamental laws of Georgia,
were attending to the law of his nature
—nodding. We found more ol in tel i
genee in the ('(invention than we had
expected, hut still there is much ignor
ance. Many of the delegates would
better grace the plow-handles or work
shop, than the halls of legislation.
Viewing them from one stand point we
were made to exclaim to oursvll, ‘liotv
the mighty are fallen.'
But to hold up to the view of the
people of the once proud old State of
Georgia, the character of some of those
who now feign to represent her in
that deliberative body, would only
Lighten their misery and enhance their
wretched humiliation. We there
fore let the matter drop, hoping, at the
same time, that a merciful Providence
will steer the oh 1 ship of State safely
over the boisterous waves of political
revolution into the haven of peace and
prosperity. We abide our time and
destiny.
Outraueous. —About noon to-day,
some fitly or seventy five negroes
marched through the streets on their
way to the polls, aimed with double
and single barreled guns, pistols, etc.
They were led by an impudent and
boisterous black rascal who should
have been arrested and punished. —
There was no cause, whatever, for this
armed demonstration, and it was made,
doubtless, for no other purpose than to
insult our people and provoke blood
shed. Ob ! shame, shame upon a par
ty that will thus incite the ignorant and
illiterate to acts of insolence and vio
lence ! —Eufuula News, 4th.
Bonvenience. —It is said that in one
of the Northern churches the pews are
arranged on pivots, so that the sitters
can lurn to see people come in without
twisting their necks. It would be an
accommodation to some people to have
such pews in the churches of Carters*
villa.

37th day’s proceedings.
W hereas, by the late war, the people
of Georgia have lost over four hundred
millions dollars of taxable property,
also a vast depieciation of real estate,
and the total loss of four year’s labor,
thereby throwing into hopeless confus
ion the equitable relations of debtor
and creditor. And whereas, all or
nearly all the indebtedness was based
eitner directly or indirectly upon the
property thus destroyed or depreciated,
while the amount of indebtedness is
held undiminished.
Therefore, We the people of Georgia
in Convention assembled, do solemnly
ordain, 1 hat from and alter the passage,
of this ordinance, no Court in tiiis State
shall have jurisdiction to hear or deter
miae any suit, or reude-any judgement

fail to give jurisduciion in the casfs
herein denied, and the Committee on
Consolidation and Revision distribute
this ordinance to its proper place in the
Constitution.
In compliance with a special request
of the signer, we give place to the
following card :— Atlanta jite/l.
A Card—To the Public.
It is with reluctance and with regret
that l intrude upon the, public at this
time, and more espeeialy is it a source
of pain to me to be (liven to the ne
cessity of alluding to the unhappy oc
currence ol last Mold ay evening at the
American Hotel.
On being admitted to bail and re
lieved from custoiy, my attention was
called to a card >ver the signature of
R. B. Bullock ii the city papers of the
6th instant, in which he says—“l de
sire in this puilic manner to say, that
upon ilie artirte in the ciiy papers be
ing brought o my notice I was assured
bv Maj. liehardsor., and by ofher
gentlemen who were present at the
meeting referred to in the said article,
that Mai R. did not “hold up his
hands” as charged, and 1 therefore
droppo, the subject as one altogether
persontl between the writer and the
Majo> Nor did I advise or recom
mend any action to he taken by Maj.
B.’ And he says again ; “It will
therefore he seen (hat the meeting
between the parties was the result of
personal feeling upon a question ol
veracity exclusively, and has no polit
ical significance.” The italics are my
own. The imputation against my ve
racity so gratuitously made and pub
lished by Col. Bullock, constrains me,
however unpleasant it may be, to in
troduce the following affidavit:
State of Georgia, )
Fulton County. )
Personally appeared before the un
dersigned. Henry O. Hoyt, ot said
county, who, being duly sworn, de
poselti and saith that he was present at
the Republican meeting in this city on
the night of the 5,9ih ult., that lie saw
Mr. C, C. Richardson, deceased, there,
and saw him vole with both hands.
IT. O. Hoyt,
Sworn to and subscribed before me
Iff I). Smith, J. C. O.
If Col. Bullock felt ob ieated to
publicly defend liirnself against those
who may have charged him with advis
ing or recommending “any action to
be taken by Major li.” the assumption
that my course was ‘the result of per*
sonal feeling,” is certainly not germaiu
to the question. I am, therefore, at a
loss to find the motive oilier than a
desire to prejudice the public against
me. That he should thus assail me,
through the press, in an hour of (lis
tress, and thrust before the community
his opinions in a manner calculated to
crush me with the weight of his posi
tion, in advance of my coming trial,
fills my heart with sad surprise.
AH I ask is a fair and impartial trial
by injury of my country. In the mean
time, the public is respectfully request
ed to suspend its decision and let no
publications, from any source, excite
its prejudices against me.

Estrella OIL
Our community is indebted to the
enterprise of Messrs. Arnold and Fore
man for the introduction of titis new
and superior illuminating oil, with
lamps and lurners to suit. We have
resisted all innovations upon the Ker
osene up to this lime, believing that to
be the best and cheapest light, and it
has never been excelled bv any, in our
judgment, until the Estrella was intro*
duced. We pen this article by*a most
convenient and suitable hand and desk
lamp, for which we are indebted to the
courtesy of Mr. Arnold. The oil is
pure and clean, does not soii the fingers
nor smell bad, and will leave no mark
nor sign upon the floor or the clotlieing
if it should be adeideotially spilled. It
is cheap, sells at 75 cents per gallon and
is said to last much longer than Kero*
ene, tliongh of tin's we have had no ex
perience. This oil also prevents the
wick from burning, and thus we avoid
the trouble of removeing them. One
wick in this lamp willlast a lifetime.—
Above all, the style ofbtirner nnd chim
ney sold with the lamps is the most
desirable and convenient* and secure
yet seen. The chimney is of uniform
size, cylcnderie.al, sits securely on its
base, and the simple device fer fixing
it removes alljpossibility of its falling
off or even shaking unless one wilfully
throws it off Also, the flame of Ihe lamp
does not and will not smoke nor crack
the chimney.
Altogether we aie well pleased with
the Estrella oil and lamps, and com
mend the enterprise of Messrs. Arnold
and Foreman in introtfuceing it. ihe
oil and lamps ran be h*ad ot either o
these gentlemen —and from no other
