TUESDAY moiwoS’g,
OS
10.
Tb» Philadelphia couventloti-Shall
Georgia Send ’Dclcgntes.
Tbi« question must ho decided before
’bearcat masses of the people oan be
heard irofn. As a general thing the
i’resa ot the State has spoken with
Rtcat trenkness and unanimity in favor
of the movement, So far ae we have
been ahli to'Iearn, only three papers
in the State oppose it; the Constitution
alists, the Augusta Press and Columbus
Sun. The principal objections urged,
are the degrading features, as they are
termed, in the call. It nmy be un
pleasant for Southern men, generally
*ro go into a Convention that, in ad'
advance, emphatically denies the righ t
Sf secession. But what practical advan
tago has this claimed right over been
to the South. Wo have ever held that
practically speaking, the right of seces
sion was not “worth a straw.” The op
pressions of government may, under
soma circumstances, justify a people in
revolutionising, and then if they succeed
tnoy become patriots, if they fail they
are rebels. This right, thank God
not subject to human Constitutions or
laws, but any oppressed people oan ex
orciso it.when they feel competent
for the undertaking. If the South re
fuses to council with the North until
the latter admits iho right of secession, it
will wait till after this generation has
passed off the stage of action.
\Yoarenot a little surprised that the
'opponents of this movement, should
'urge dbjefctio'n because only loyal del
egates will bo admitted, they assuming
that the radical construction of loyalty
is to l>e the test. It might be assumed
with just as much consistency, that,
is the radical policy generally that tlio
Convention proposes to establish
It seems not likely that the South
will soon have an opportunity to en
ter any National assembly wherein she
will, necessarily, compromise less ci
ther her feelings or dignity, than in
this proposed Convention; or one where
in her voice will be more willingly and
respeotfully listened to. The whole
question can be statod in a nut’sholl
The Conservative men of the North
Democrats and Republicans—invite all
Southern men who accept the present
situation, desire to preserve the Con
stitution, and approve of President
Johnson's policy of reoonstruolion, to
unito with them in the formation of a
great National Party for the overthrow
■of the Radical party, now hastening on
the government to the very verge of
anarohy and ruin. The grand object
of this Convention is to make a Platform
for the proposed new party—and not to
ratify that of the "Washington City Union
Club, as some seem to suppose, or that
of any other club or party. If it so be
that Georgia cannot stand upon this
Platform, when made, without compro
mising her self respect—which contin
gency is not probable—then let her del
egates withdraw, and the State stand
alaof.
The Conservaliv men'of the North’need
and invits the co-operation and support
of the South, in the termB of Constitu
tional equality and good fellowship.
Shall (bey have it?
Delegates to the Union Coventlon.
Koch Congressional District is invited
to send two delegates to the Philadel.
Jvhia Convention, and the State at large
four. As this Convention is to take
■place on ibe 14lh of August—so early
that no time can be lost by those intend
ing to be represented—we suggest that
the counties of this District hold meet
ings on or before Saturday, the 21st inst,
and appoint every county, two dele
gates, and those counties entitled to
tiro Representatives in the State Legis-
Wore, three delegates, to a Convention
which We propose shall be held at
Kingston on Saturday, the 28th inst
For Floyd county, we Would recoftithem
that the meeting be held on Monday,
the 16th inst.—which will be the first
day of the Superior Conrt -at 12
o'clock, ot the Court House.
The District Convention, when as
sembled, will pivot delegates to the
Philadelphia Convention, and can, if
they choose, reoommeod the Governor
to appoint four delegates for the State
at large, designating their preference if
that course seems proper. What say
our brethren of the Press.
Washington, July 4.—The Demo-
■cratio Senators and Congressmen have
issued air addrees in favor of the Con
vention at Philadelphia. A National
Union, they declare, should be the
watchword of every man, and they de
nounce the radicals for their persisting
in refuting to admit the Southern States
to representation, and say that laws
have been passed affecting their inter
est, in disregard of the fundamental
principles of free government. They
urge free repscsentation from all the
States and Territories, and propose for
said Convention to work in a Bpirit of
harmony for the purpose of restoring
the Constitutinal Union, and for this
purpose only.
#6y*We learn from the Vicksburg
Herald of the 20th, that Judge Cothran
decided at the Tallabachis Circuit
Court,, that property, such as horses,
mules, Ac., taken by the Federal sol
diery, and disposed of by them to oiti-
xens, can be recovered by the person
from whom it was'taken. Tbe right of
property has not been changed, the par
ty from Whom it was taken baa not
been divested of bis title by due course
of law. This decision is iu accordance
with equitable principles.
Bocnd Over.—Rev. Nelson Merry
who married a White man, from Ohio to
a negro woman, in the 1st Baptist
Church, (colored) in Naabvilie, a short
* time since’ had a preliminary examina
tion before a Justice of tbe Peace in

ROME BOARD OF TRADE.
The undersigned merchants, olid
'Others interested in tbe cotnmekoial
growth and prosperity of the o'ily of
Rome, invite all merchants, traders,
manufacturers, mechanics, and all
others, interested, '4o meet with thim at
the City Hall Thursday night next, the
I2lh inst., for the purpose of organis
ing a peimanent Poard of Trade, or
Chamber of Commerce for the city of
Rome. The object will be to collect,
and record, euch local and general
statistical information, relating to com-
commerce and manufactures, as may
promote the interest of Rome, aud gen
orally to protect and advance tbe wel
fare of the commercial and manufac
turing classes; to promote just and
equitable principals in trade, and es
tablUh uniformity in the commercial
usages in Rome.
The objeol of the meeting will bo to
oscestain if there exists enough ability
and energy among the merchants and
others in Rome, to attain the Bamo de
greo of healthful activity and uniformi
ty in matters of comaierce, as marks the
oareer of every city of any commercial
importance. If the merchants, will
give their united co-operation it is be
lieved much good will result. But if
they all hold off and wait for somebody
else to do the work, we will struggle on
as heretofore without any unity or good
results:
tinued, will do much damage to cotton,
aud also to early corr,, no(V in Silk. I
am glad to observe thal wheat is turn
ing out so well in Chorokoa Georgia.—
In this older seotion of the State, we
stmll perhaps hlako enough for home
consumption—not more.
Writing to you on business, if there
is anything in the foregoing which you
think will interest your readers, it is at
your dispossal,
In haste yours, J K.

Tlie Frcedmen’s Bureau.
From the New Herald.
Jackson, Miss., June 26,—Generals
Steedmau und Fullerton’s investiga
tions in Mississippi disclose abundant
evidence of dishonesty in the manage
ment on the part ot Bureau agents,
■most of whom, however, liavo been
recently removed.
Under Colonel Thomas’s administra
tion great irregularities prevailed at
Columbus. According to the state
ments of citizens, fees were taken for
the approval of contracts and for pro
curing labor. Bribes were received,
und tlio two first agents appointed re
turned enriched. At Grenada, Chaplain
Livermore, a reverend Bureau agent
there, displayed remarkable speculative
propensities. He charged feea ranging
hom a quarter of a dollar upwards for
every conceivable thing—for marraying
freedmen aud fees for permits to marry.
No fish war too small that came into
liia net. One darkey owed him a dol
lar und a half, and iiad only a dollar to
meet the claim. Livermore took his
wallet and Jack-knife for the balance.
Ho sold pork, potatoes and Captured
mules to citizens, lie made arrests,
and convicted or acquitted according
to the pecuniary arguments employed.
When his real practices were exposed
he offeied fifty dollars to any one who
would use Sufficient influence to keep
him in his position. This man declares
his intention of returning to Illinois
with ten thousand dollars in bis pocket.
He was removed in February last by
Colonel Thomas, nltd placed under nr-
rest for aehorltime, hut nothing fur
ther was done with him. Like Genehtl
Saxton, he took his record with him.
The Bureau duties of this State are
now discharged most satisfacioriiy ex
clusively ty the military officers of the
department.
The Fire in Portland, Maine;
Portland, MaInZ,July 6.—Five bar
loads of provisions catne dewn from
Boston last night, and are now being
distributed among the people. Large
amount of supplies have come in from
Various places. 1'hejjtvere greatly need
ed, as most of the provision stores were
burned and there was scarcely anything
left'to be bought, and our poople were
living on bread alonbi The Atheneura
library was totally destroyed. The o’-ty
buildings and custom house blazed
again this morning. Secretary Stanton
has ordered 13,006 government tents to
be sent from Boston for the belief of
the sufferers. Senator Fessenden,
among others; loses nearly all bis prop-
erty.

For iliu Inst f \r works we help hud ;i

Buited to tho times. It was followed
up in the afternoon by a very injlrllc
five and appropriate discourse by Rev.
Dr. LI Pierce, father of the Bishop, up
on the religiousoducation and training
of tho young—a subject of solemn mo
ment at this time especially.
On Monday addres.es were delivered
by tho students attached to the Col

Well chosen, and the young orators ac
quitted themselves, in every respeot,
very handsomely. The address before
the Alumni of tho College, was deliver

Was replete with sound views, well ex
pressed upon the educational wants of
the people, and the defects in the pres
ent systems of instruction. Also an
appeal to the friends of Emory College
to rally to its support. It is greatly to
he desired tliut these and other appeals
meet with a prompt and generous re-
ponso.
The Commencement sermon of tbe
Southern Mosonio Female College was
preached by tha Rev. Mr. Elliott Rcc

propriate to the occasion, and listened
to with much satisfaction by a largo

Bai.timohe, July 6.—Judge Bowie,

null and void; haying been abrogated
and superceded by the Civil Rights bil 1 ,
