. ram the Macon Tt!'-graph. Colored State Convention--2d and 3rd Days. Being promised with a report, of tlie proceedings of this body yesterday, for publication, we spent only a few minutes in the City Hall, and as the report has not been handed in, we do not know, what was done. We do know, however, that some most outrageous speeches were made, for we heard a portion of one 01 two, and they so ruffled our feelings and were so insulting that we quit the room in dis gust. The object of this Convention, as j Turner informs us, is to test the Radical party in regard to the right of the color ed man to hold office, lie wants the sub ject brought at once before Congress and have the question settled- He holds, and sensibly, too, that the right to vote is in separable from the right to hold office, and if he is denied either he will reject both. Since the above was in type the follow ing has been sent in at our request. We give it room that all may know what is going on in our midst: I'BOCEEDINGS OF THE CONVENTION. The Convention of colored men mot yesterday at 10 o’clock, Vice President John T. Costin in the Chair. Prayer by Rev. IP B. ltucker. The minutes*were read and approved after somt}* correction. Mr. Turner took the Chair, and an nounced the reception of a dispatch from a New York Convention, which was read and ordered to go upon the Journals.— The dispatcli read as follows : Utica, N. Y etc.—We tender you our sympathy in this trying hour of your race. Stand firm. (Signed) J. W. Lognan. Chairman Now York Convention. Hon. J. E. Bryant came in, and was hy motion invited to a seat on the floor. On motion of Mr. Costin, the following dispatch was returned to the New York Convention : lion. J, W. lognan, President of the New York Convention : We have your assuiance of sympathy. Thank you. We have dedicated ourselves to the success of the issues at stake, and the Empire State of the South joins hands with the Empire State of the North in battling for universal rights. Our Con vention is large and a unit. Nearly one hundred counties are represented—about 175 delegates now in session and more arriving. (Signed) II. M. Turner. President Geoogia State Convention. On motion of Mr. Houston, Mr. Bel cher was added to the list of Secretaries. Mr. Bryant was invited, by a vote of the House, to address the Convention, which he did at considerable length, lie reviewed the whole history of lleconstruc tion in this State, and concluded oa the rights of the negro under the new Con stitution. He said one man had the same right under it as another had, and he as sured the Convention that the great bulk of the Democratic citizens of Georgia did not endorse the action of the Legislatuie, and that several members of the Legi.-lu- ture had, several times, said that they would give any thing in the world, nearly,if the negroes were back in their seats; but they only regarded their expulsion, he feared, for policy’s sake. He told them that everybody knew that General Grant would be the next President, whether Georgia goes for him or not; but let col ored men dare to do right, if they died with the ballot in their hand, not by il legal means though, but under the law.— Y 7 et if they could not vote their senti ments, then go away and Congress would not allow that county to be counted with the votes of Georgia. After Mr. Bryant had concluded, sev eral resolutions were offered, all of which were referred to the Committee on Reso lutions. The hour of 1 o’clock having arrived, the Convention adjourned till 3 r. m. AFTERNOON SESSION. The Convention met at the time ap pointed, IT. M. Turner in the Chair.— The Committee on Address to the People of Georgia reported along and ably writ ten document. Time would not permit us to review it. After some laudatory- remarks from Simms, of Chatham, Ilarri son, of Hancock, Beard of Richmond, and another delegate from Thomas, whom the Convention would not hear because he did not speak to the point, the report of the Committee was adopted. The Committee to memorialize Con gress then reported a still longer docu ment, which Mr. Sitmns read with much fluency. The document appeared to be almost an analysis of the Constitution and of the laws of Georgia, and argued the negro’s eligibility to a seat in the General Assembly or to any position he might be elected to with great force. It stated that if the negro was ineligible to his seat, Georgia was still under military rule, she is not in the Union, etc. It finally concludes with the following questiou. Speakiug to Congress, it says : Shall we look to your august body in the future for protection from injustice as we have in the past, or must we protect our selves ? The report was adopted hy a standing vote, and was unanimous. Several other resolutions were then of fered, and referred to the respective com mittees. When the House adjourned amid the wildest enthusiasm over the able reports of.the committee. They met to day at ten, and will try and adjourn this evening or to-night. A committee of ten delegates were ap pointed to draw up a Constitution and By-Laws for a State organization, to be known as the Civil aod Politieal Rights Association of Georgia. This is to be purely a colored organization. MORNING SESSION. The Convention met pursuant to ad journment. The President in the Chair. Prayer by thoRev. Robt. Crumley.

A well-known tin ware peddler travelled up town to dispense notions to such as were wil ling to bargain. He was a persevering trader, ind never would he bluffed off with a short inswer. From one house in particular he re- eei' ed assurances that nothing was wanted. They never bought, anything in that way.” Nevertheless lie made his calls steadily with each regular round, till he became a regular pest, and in reply to the information that i: was useless to call, made known his purpose to do so just as often a? he pleased. One bitter cold day the bell rang, and the good lady hastened to get her hands from tli. dough, in which they were busy, to answer the call; when she reached the door, there stood the everlasting tin-pedler. “Any tin-ware to-day ma’am ?” “Have you any tin for kitchens?’’ “ Yes, ma’am.” And away he goes to bring the samples, chuckling at the idea that his zeal was so successful at last. “There’s nothing like hanging on,” he mut tered. The tins were brought, and tin pans were next inquired for. The pans were brought, and other articles enumerated, to seven different kinds, until a goodly- portion of the peddler's load had been transferred to the house. “ Is there anything else you want ?’’ “ Oh, no, I don’t want any of these ; I only asked ifyouliad them.” The peddler was fairly ‘sold’ and for a mo ment felt like getting angry, but the idea rather tickled him, and he commenced returning his wares to the cart, without uttering a word. He has never called at. that house since. Origin of Illustrious Men. Columbus was the son of a weaver, and a weaver himself. Horner was the son of a very small farmer.

The sequel to this interview we give to our readers as related to us hy a female friend to whom it had been confided, uiv ing the questions and responses in the or der in which they occurred.

Blanchette was deliberate, evincing uo haste, desirous of making no mistake in the figures, hut wrote with considerable distinctness, “S e-v-e-n t,” when the young hmy shov ed the instrument from her with such force that it fed upon me floor, and if was divided in half by the fall. \\ bother planehette inti tided seventeen or seventy was not determined, and we presume Line alone c.n discover the entire answer.— Exchange. A Texas Duel on Horseback. Movements of Mrs. Lincoln.—Mrs.j Lincoln, widow of the late President, with her yi.ugest son. after attending the mar riage of Captain Robert Lincoln, her j eldest son, at Washington, on the 24th | ult. returned to Baltimore on the 26th, 1 and took rooms at B.irnum’s City Hotel, j wlu-re she remained in comparative re tirement, being visited only by a few per sonal friends, until Thursday morning last, when she left with her son and was driv en direct to Locust Point. Here, veiled, unknown to the large crowd on the pier, tiie widow and son of the late President went on hoard the steamship Baltimore, bound to Bremen. Site at once went to tier state room, and as her name did not appear on the passenger list furnished by the agent of the line, (it being withheld, it is supposed, at the request of the lady) ;Le fact of her actual departure for Eu- rope has only become known several days after the sailing of the ship. Those inti mately acquainted with Mrs. Lincoln aver that her visit to Europe at this time is for the purpose of placing her youngest son at a school in Germany, after which she will probably spend the winter in the South of Franee. —i—mi iii iiMti ritrfitnf.iiTiii~~nTiT*TiTinr*TTTn~ cr: TO RENT. the First Tuesday in November next, rill tie rented before the Court House, in Newnan, Coweta county, within the legal hours of sate, the plantation belonging to the es-ate i f Joseph It.-Meriwether, deceased, nine miles west of Newnan, on the Franklin road.

Many things have hen used nt different times as money : cowrie shells in Africa ; wampum or beads made of clam shells by the American Indians ; soap in Mexico. The Carthage).inns used leather as money* probably bearing some mark or stamp. Frederick II., at the seige of Milan, reviving this custom, issued stamped leather as money. In 1350, John the Good. The Corpus Christ i Advertiser has from a correspondent these- particulars or a bloody and fatal affray which took place on the west side of the river, above Oak ville, on the 2-d ult., between Mr. Hen derson Williams and Sic Brown, about some beeves that cere turned into a herd against the wish of Mr. Williams. The latter claimed authority over said beeves, as partly his own and partly those for whom he held agencies. Some woida nc. urred at fir.-t which cul minuted in the drawing of weapons, which were heavy dragoon six shooters. Both parties being mounted, at each successive shot they charged up closer to their dread ful work. The tiring was very rapid, and the combatants became enveloped in the smoke of their weapons, which -were lap ped together on the last round. Mr. Brown’s firing was wild, owning, no doubt, to the fact that he received a mortal cen tre shot from Williams’ first fire, although he sat firmly, until shot the third time through the body, which entering the heart, tie fell a corpse on the instant.— Williams was unhurt, hut his horse was shot in the head, and was fractious and unruly during the fight. Both parties had numbers of well-armed friends on the grouno, Itr no as-istancc or interference was offeree, and the issue was fairly and squarely tested. Both men were undoubt edly brave to the la>t inch such as would d> honor to any cause, right or wrong.— But it is a sad, very sad thing indeed, that men of forty years of age must draw their weapous to decide questions of pro priety.

In a great many cases a single dose has ! been sufficient for a cure, and whole families • have been cured by a single bottle, with a per fect restoration to the general health.
