NEWNAN. GEORGIA.
Saturday Horning, May 20, I8GG.
Cotton.
Cotton has revived in the Northern
market, and on the 24J of this month
was worth 40 to -12 cents. This rise is
no doubt partly attributable to the news
from the South that there was a ‘‘bad
stand ” on mo f c than half the cotton
land. From the buoyancy of the market
we are inclined to the belief that the
price of the staple will go still higher.
The gold market is excited and has a
strong upward tendency.
The Penitentiary.
We learn from the Southern Recorder
that there arc now in the Penitentiary
about fifty convicts. The number is al
most daily increasing, and we doubt not
will reach one hundred before the close
of the year. On Wednesday, the four
convicted at the Special Term of the
Coweta Superior Court, left here under
guard for the State prison. Now if the
citizens of every county in Georgia were
as vigilant in the enforcement of the laws
as oar citizens have been, the convicts
would now number over five hundred.—
The expense of maintaining such a host
of criminals in the Penitentiary would be
enormous, and so enrage the people that
they would clamor for its abolition. The
policy of those who now favor that meas
ure is a rigid enforcement of the penal
code. Such a course would work a revo
lution iu the sentiments of our people ns
speedy and thorough as the exemption of
the South from taxation would in the
feelings, views and nets of the Radicals.
Andrew Johnson.
The President avails himself of every
opportunity to present the unrolled Con
stitution to the Radical Disunion Congress.
In his messages vetoing the Frccdmcn’s
Rurcnu, Civil Rights and Colorado Rills,
he informs Congress that eleven States
ore unrepresented, and that all who arc
expected to bear the burdens of the Gov
ernment should have a voice in the
enactment of its laws. This is an idea
which is sound to the core, and if the
President had it in his power to defeat
taxation ns long ns the Radicals deprive
us of representation, he might rest assur
ed that his restoration policy would im
mediately triumph; and if it did not
triumph, we of the South would not be
compelled to cry our eyes out about its
failure. Our people arc foolish enough
to think that they could live, in some
manner, without both representation and
taxation. All that the President says,
although well said, avails nothing. If he
will act in the direction referred to, he
will see instantly the fruits of his labors
begin to ripen. Wc trust Andrew John
Son hr® seen that he has talked enough,
nncT will determine to act in future, with
this ns his motto: That if he cannot se
cure representation for the Southern peo
ple, he will at least relieve them of tax
ation.
to the reorganization of their system of
industry; to the development of their
material resources; to the preservation of
peace and order, and to checking what
ever elements of discontent and misrule j
still exist among them, they will contrib- j
• ate more effectually than thev can in any
other way to the restoration of confidence
; and' friendly feelings between the two
sections. The time is not far off when
wc shall be. in a truer sense than we ever
were before, one-ejuutry. and it depends
upon the South, quite as much as upon
the North, how soon that time shall come.

Letter from Hon. H. J. Raymond.
The extract referred to was taken from
the Newnan Herald, and in which the
people of the South were urged to make
legal resistance to the collection of taxes
By tbc Federal Government because we
were denied representation. Dr. Whelan,
of this city, desiring Mr. Raymond’s
views on the subject, enclosed it in a let
ter to him. The following is his reply,
from the correctness of the most of which
we dissent:
Washington, IX C.,May 10,1S6G.
Dear Sir: I ought sooner to have re
plied to your favor of the 15th, but acci
dentally neglected to do so.
I have read the newspaper paragraph
which you enclose, and frankness compels
me to say that I do not think the course
you propose to adopt, would, under the
circumstances, bo advisable. I do not
think the chauces of success would equal
the expense, difficulty and doubt which
would attend the process, and in the pre- i
wnt state of the Southern country, it {
seems to me that the money, energies and
attention of your people would be much
more profitably directed to the develop-!
ment of their material resources, so seri
ously impaired by the recent war.
1 think that, with proper efforts on the
part of the South, the time will not be !
long delayed when they will aga : n enjoy
representation in our national councils.—
That time, certainly, will not be hastened
by indications of hostility towards the
national Government, nor even of resent
ing in the manner you propose, or any
other, the measures that Government may
adopt.
1 know very well that the present tem
per of the Northern States is not wholly
favorable to moderate, conciliatory and
judicious measures, but this is an incident
of our present condition. I think public
scntin.uut is growing already milder, and
more disposed to judge leniently of the
temper and opinions afl the South. Time
will still farther soften that feeling, unless
hasty resentments and impatience on the
part cf the South should cheek its ten
dency in that direction. I know bow
much easier it is to recommend patience
to otheae than it is to exercise it one’s
self, and I fully understand that the peo
ple of the Sontbern States are quite
likely to feel somewhat restive iu view of
the langucge and action ot many at the
North ; but the less thought they give
to these sources of asneyanee the better.
If they can devote themselves thoroughly

Dear Sir: You will see by the cata
logue that the ticket you hold has drawn
a prize of §500
If you will tell none, and fuliow my
instructions, you can obtaiu a part or tlie
whole of the prize.
This money docs not come out of my
pocket, or even pass through my hands,
j but comes to you direct from the Treasu-
! rer’s office; but I shall expect you to
show your “Green Backs” to your
friends, and sell ail the tickets you can
for me in future distributions, as all the
benefit I desire is a commission on all
tickets sold through my office.
To obtain this prize money you must
have a receipt from the Trustees, to show
that your ticket has been paid for; to get
one, write me a letter dated the day be
fore tlie drawing, and enclose §10 for one-
fifth, §25 for one-half, or §50 for the
whole, be sure to state in your letter
the number of each Treasury note or bank
bill you send; also to write your name
yourself upon the corner of the back of
each, to avoid suspicion and prevent the
return of your money aud order dishon
ored by the Trustees.
Be very careful what you write, as I
have to open all letters I receive before
the Trustees, and they, Gliding the date
of your letter and money correct, will
send you a receipt that will secure to you
the money your ticket has drawn.
As soon as you receive the Trustees’
receipt you will forward your ticket to
the Treasurer, and tell him to what Ex
press office to send your prize money, and
when you receive the money you will de
liver the Trustees’ receipt to the Express,
who will return it to the Treasurer, to
show that the prize has been paid.
Hoping that you will not betray my
confidence in you, and that you will sell
many tickets for me,
I am your Iriend,
Charles P. Brooks.
Private Contracts in Georgia.
The following Ordinance, now in force
in Georgia, was passed by the Convention
assembled at Milledgcville in October
last. Executors, Administrators, Guar-
dittos, Trustees and other parties arc in
many instances interested in the provis
ions of this Ordinauco.
An Ordinance To make valid private
contracts entered into and ex>‘cuted
during the war against the United
States, and to authorize the courts of
this State to adjust the equities be
tween parties to the contracts made,
but not executed, and to authorize set
tlements of such contracts by persons
acting in a fiduciary character.
Section 1. The people of Georgia, in
Convention assembled, do ordain, That
all private contracts made and executed
during the war against the United States,
and not in violation of the constitution
and laws of the State, or of the United
States, shall be as valid and binding as if
made and executed before hostilities com- 1
rneneed.
Sec. 2. And it is further ordained,
That all contracts made between the first'
of June, 1 SGI, and the first of June,!
1SG5, whether expressed iu writing orj
implied, or existing in parole and not yet ;

struction, and either party in any suit for
the enforcement of any such contract,
may upon the trial give in evidence the
consideration and the value thereof at
any time; and the intention of the par
ties as to the particular currency in which
payment was to be made, and the value
of such currency at any time, and the
verdict and judgment rendered shall be
on principles of equity : Provided, that
contracts executed within the time speci- j
fied, and which were simply in renewal
of original contracts made before the said
first day of Jaue, shall stand upon the
footing of contracts executed before hos
tilities commenced.
Sec. 3. And it is further ordained,
That executors, administrators, guardians
aud trustees, shall have power to settle or
compromise all claims or evidences of
debt in their possession, created between

payment in Confederate States of Air.er- j
ica Treasury notes or other currency of a
depreciated value, and accept in satisfac
tion of such indebtedness the fair and
reasonable value of such claims.

European Intelligence.
Washington, May 23.—Intelligence
from European papers, per City of New
York, represent war inevitable.
Napoleon, in a speech, said t “ I de
shed that a majority ot the citizens of! test those treaties of 1815, which arc now
Colorado desire, and arc prepared for an ; sought to be made the sole basis of our for-
cxchangc ol a Territorial for a State gov-1 eign policy ; a declaration considered asig-
ernment. In September, 18G4, under
the authority of Congress, an election was
lawfully appointed and held for the pur
pose of ascertaining the views of the peo
ple upon this particular question. 6,102
votes were cast; and of this number a
majority of 3,115 was given against .the
proposed change.
In September, 18G5, without any lagal
authority, the question was again presen
ted to tlie people of the territory, with
the view of obtaining a reconsideration
of the result of the election held in com
pliance with the act of Congress, appro
ved March 21, 1864. At this second
election 5,905 votes were polled, and the
small majority of 155 was given in favor
of a State organization.
It does not seem to me entirely safe to
permit this last mentioned result, so ir
regularly obtained, to outweigh the one
which has been legally obtained. Regu
larity and conformity to law are essential
to the preservation of order and a stable
government, and should, as far as practi
cable, always be observed in the formation
of new States.
Third—The admission of Colorado at
at this time as a State into the Union,
appears to me to be incompatible with
the public interests of the country —
While it is desirable that territories,
when sufficiently matured, should be or
ganized as States, yet the spirit of the
constitution seems to require that there
should be an approximation towards
equality among the several States com
piling tbe Union. No State can have
less or more than two Senators in Con
gress. Xfie largest State has a population
of four millions, several other States have
a population exceeding two millions, and
many others have a population exceeding
one million.
If this bill should become a law, the
people of Colorado, thirty thousand in
number, would have in the House of
Representatives one member ; while New
York, with a population of four millions,
lias but thirty-one. Colorado would have
in the electoral college three votes, while
New York has only thirty-three. Colo
rado would have in the Senate two votes,
while New Y’ork has no more.
Inequalities of this kind have already

The London Times commenting, says :
“ Only Napoleon can prevent war, but
unfortunately, the arbiter of contentment
speaks only to spread dismay in every
way, cr exchange by some doubtful utier-
ence.”

Speech of Secretary Seward, Delivered
at Auburn.
Washington, May 23.—Secretary
Seward, in a speech at Auburn, on Tues
day evening, said : “ Tbe solicitude which
pervades the country would perhaps jus
tify him in addressing the people upon
political topics loudly and patriotically.
When the good Union people were suspi
cious of a change of views of dangerous
rebels and their support of the President's
policy, he from the first rejected the idea
that that change was accomplished for
trosonable purposes. Reconstruction is
not needed, because the country was con
structed long since. It has not been des
troyed. What is needed is reconstruction
between the Senators of the United States
now, and those who being loyal have been
or may be elected from Southern States.
With few exceptions the Southern people
could justly be accepted as fellow citizens
The Southern States have for the last
four years been merely disorganized, and
nothing is needed but consideration.—
The President’s plan of reconstruction is,
that so far, and so fast as unrepiesented
Southern States present themselves in
loyal attitude by Representatives of un
questionable loyalty, they are entitled to
representation. This plan is practicable.
No plan proposed by Congress so far, is
immediately practicable. He was aware
there was a difference between the Presi
dent and Congress, but he hoped the dif-
duced by tramps of treading boots of sen
tinels on post and around the prison room,

Means have been taken by placing mat

but with only partial success. His vital
