All eyes are turned, with interest and anxiety, to this body, chmierous to know what is to be tho final result of the present struggle to organize. Up to this (Tuesday,) morning, nothing has been done. According to Gov. Bullock’s proclamation convening-tbe Legislature, under the Morton Bill, on the 10th instant, the original body, coi - sistiag of the whites, together with the expelled negro members, elected in ac cordance with the proclamation of Gen. Meade, in 1868, met, in the cap itol of the State, in Atlanta, at the time appointed. The Senate organ- , ized, without much harangue, by elect -; ing Mr. Conley, (rep.,) president, and j was ready for business. In the House it was different; much confusion and I bitterness was manifested in attempt- j ing to organize that branch ; in fact, fire-arms was drawn and threatened ; the contest seemed to be made, more particularly, between the conservative and the radical, republicans, the former were backed up by the democrats, who were powerless. A. L. Harris, Master of Transportation and Supervisor of the State R ad, (a man, in no wise, connected-with the legislature,) was ; appointed, by Gov. Bullock, to organ- j ize the House. The work of swearing j in members was commenced and was ! progressing smoothly aud peacefully, ; marred only occasionally by a protest from one of the negro members, (the white radicals studiously laboring to keep their own necks out of the halter, aud at the same' time urging the ne-: gro members forward). The Morton Bill, under which the legislature should j have been organized, forbids the in- ; timidation of members by | threats, or otherwise, from taking the ] oath of office prescribed by said bill, 1 under severe penalties. The decision I of Attorney-General Farrow as to the ! proper construction of the law regard ing the eligibility of members, was en deavored to be brought to bear, by the i temporary chairman, when an appeal was made, by the conservative wing, to Gen. Terry, who decided that Mr. Far- j row’s opinion was not the law. The j chairman then proceeded to have the i roll called and members sworn in, un-1 til it was very apparent that the con servative wing was going to have a clear majority of voters in . that body ; this fact created a bustle among the opposite wing—the rads. They ad journed the legislature and begot them selves to the telegraph wires, and soon conveyed the sad intelligence to kind red spirits at Washington, who in re sponse ordered Gen. Terry to institute an inquisition under the semblance of a Military Commission, and proceed ' to investigate all flagrant violations of law; which may, possibly, intimidate a 1 sufficient number to withdraw their! oath of office and give them a working majority. The legislature was duly adjourned over from Thursday to Mon- j day. and the inquisition was set. Tho balance of the week was consumed in j investigating such claimants to seats j in the Senate as was thought had pur gered themselves, but at the conclu sion of the week, no such case or cases had been determined by the commis sion. During this short recess parti* s Were at work. The citizens held a meeting, composed of conservatives of both parties, J. E. Bryant, chairman, and adopted a preamble, ignoring par ty differences, and setting forth the grievances caused by the ret k’ess dis regard of law and order, by the radi cal. wing, and the unwarrantable as sumption of power attempted to be exercised by that party in organizing the. aforesyyl body, and pacing reso lutions asking'Gen,.Terry to interpose with the authorities at Washington, and have the legislature organized in accordance with the intent of the Morton bill, and save the State from bankruptcy and ruin, Ac. The legislature again convened on Monday last, and was adjourned over until Wednesday, noon, the 19th, in order to give the commission time to complete their investigation. Gov. Bnllock sent in an order to the Treas urer to pay to each inei ber of the General Assembly, against whose eligi bility no objection has been made, the sum of SSO 00 on account of per diem and mileag i to this date. The following dispatch was read, on Monday, by Col. Bryant, in the House: j Washington, D. C., Jan. 15, 1870. j (hi. J. E, Bryant: —Have advised ; President and Secretary not to inter- j sere, save to preserve order. Govern- j or has no power whatever over Lsgis- j iature. The act makes it felony to disturb any member who ehoses to take the oath, except by regular prose cution for perjury. Nothing will stand, not free and honest. Geo. F. Edmunds, 32d • H’’ St, N. R—Up to the hour of going to press we have no further information.l The Legislature is waiting on the coni- 1 mission to finish up their investigation. Ex-Gov. Brown aud Attorney-General Farrow differ in their coustrucition of the law of eligibility. We think the whole concern had better quit squab j, Lling and proceed to business. CO!H MUXICATE ». Mr. Enrrot: I wish to make a few remarks through the columns of your paper, provided you have no objection, and will promise eternal secrecy. Will you do if? Me thinks I hear the an swer in the affirmative—that's tdl right then, so I’ll try my hand at 1 newspaper writing, a few “verses’* anyhow. You may possibly imagine my feel ings, as can also “ Tell-Tale,” the late illustrious correspondent of yciu* pa per, upon attempting to write a com munication for a newspaper—it makes a fellow fe*d mighty big and hugely important; it makes him think that he is KNOWN! that he is making a name which will live long after his body is mouldered into dust, and one which i posterity will never know exist jeJ ! Now, isn’t that so, Mr. Editor? ; Without further preliminary remark?# I will proceed. The first thing l de i Hire to say is, that there has been some 1 ruin in Cartersville, aud a good “crop' l of mud, as a natural sequence. I [ merely mention this fact for fear your readers will not find it out, and for the purpose of informing the flowery “Local of the Express, ’ that peihaps after this rain is over we will have some more of that “beautiful, sunny weather,” of which he told us about in last week’s Express. It is a great blessing to a commuity to have a news paper published in their midst, and edited by' a man who spares neither time nor expense to make it interest ing; giving all the current news of the day, keeping pace with the political ; world, and exposing the nefarious schemes of the radicals, in attempting i to establish a despotic Government in the Southern States, in lieu of a Re~ publican, purchased by the blood of our Ancestors and bequeathed to us as a glorious heritage, &e., and tell the people when the sun shines and when it snows and rains—l reiterate j that it is not only a great blessing, but Ia great convenience and propagator of knowledge. Mr. “Local Brevity” seems to be exceedingly anxious to have the Cemetery enlarged, and fixed up; wonder what for? He also ad mires the “wholesome and business like decision” of Bloster Flodgett, the new Superintendent of the W. & A. R. R., in determining to make no prefer ence in delivering coal, but to give us all a little. Now, Mr. Editor, we all know' that you ride on the ears right often—how much does it cost you ? Nothing! did we understand you to say?—well, that’s cheap—believe I’ll take a trip down to Atlanta; “don’t allow nobody but editors and preach ers to ride free V* you say ?—well, ain’t lan editor ! haven’t I just been telling the people that it had been raining, and that it was very muddy ? j Get round that if you can ! We see j into it now; Bloster Flodgett, has been made to realize his true condi j tion, and desires to be remembered in the prayers of all praying men, in or der t > make his “calling and election sure,” and also to be remembered in | the “puff’columns of public journals,! when he merits nothing but to be done 1 like “Haamau” was—hence, free tick ets to editors and preachers. Taking ; all things into consideration, we like Bloster pretty well —can’t you get us a 1 free ticket on that puff? if you can’t, we’ll retract it. We wait with patience ; the sequel of your eflorts. What has become of “Tell-Tale”—is he dead ? He was av: ry saucy fel- \ low, and kept the people on the qui , vice all vhe time; and by the way, he j told the truth on them, and they j couldn't stand that; It won’t do to tell the truth on a person ever} time— j it hurts! The “female” ladies, ap-; peared to be worse down on him than j the ‘finale” men —why was this ? it I was because he invariably told the truth on them, while on the other hand, he would not “tell the truth, j the whole truth and nothing but truth,’ j every time—consequently they were | not so loud in their denunciations of j him, as were the “female” men. But; 7 # j this is all numbered with the “things j that were,” and which is nothing com pared with the things which are to be> so saying, we dismiss the subject. Thanking you, Mi-. Smith, for in serting this “rip-snortin’ ” communica tion—which you will do without fail ( as you was never known to do other wise—we will close, by subscribing ourself yours, &c , “Tige ” The Rural Carolinian.

A farm near Augusta, Georgia, has been bought by a colored joint stock company. Who is Muster of the Situation ? A good deal of Democratic curiosity has been felt to known the exact na ture of the Radical telegraphic com munication between Atlanta and Washington duringthe anomalous and procrastinated organization of the Legislature. In the New York Times of the 14th we find the following dis patch from Washington, that if aceu -1 rate, throws much light on the. mat ! Ur : Washington, Jan. 13. —The troubles at Atlanta over the organization of the Legislature seem to have degenerated into a Bullock and anti-Bullock fight. Nuniberous dispatches were received here to-day on the subject, including one or more from General Terry, ask ing instructions as to his action under certain circumstances. In the Mat ter of local State officers interfering u .warrantably, he was directed to act promptly in their removal. In the matter of the award of the seats of unseated members, be wits instructed to enforce the laws of Georgia on that subject, and give the seat to the per son having the next highest number of votes; and as to any other obsti eks in the organization of the Legislature or the enforcement of the Reconstruc tion Acts, he was instructed to act cautiously, but, if necessary, to re move fetich obstacles by virtue of his authority under the laws of Congress. This authority, be it kuown, ex e ids even to the removal of the Provisional Governor himself. The whole case is, therefore, in General Terry’s hands. From this it will be seen that under views of the Grant Administration, Gen. Terry is master of the situation Miscellaneous Items. -r Michigan Los 1,300 miles ofiud r >.nd. | V.eksburg talks of having a fine ! tower.
