VTe shall keep the public advised as to came aud place of this important Convention. TM£ INNER A NCR «CR8TK>K IN THK CHAMBER OP COMMERCE. The report from Mr. John Stephens, the ' Ohairme* of the Committee appointed b; the Chamber of Commerce to consider the impor tant subject of Fire Insurance, is published elsewhere this morning. It is in all respects an ndiAhable document, exhibiting with clearness and force the dangers and incon veniences which beset the insured, and the necessity tor the adoption of some meson res likely to give relief While it is doubtless tine that ail of the Fire Companies which have agencies here do not act disagreeably, still there is no question about it that in many instances meu of character, of standing and of integrity, whose property is destroyed by tiis, nre treated with the ntmost indignity by insurance agents. Doubts are cast upon their honesty, they are delayed out of their money, and, not nnfiequenl’y tbeir business is de stroyed before they can receive a dollar from 6* c<*>p«uiei. All these facts arc concisely and admirably stated by 2Cr. Stephens. The evil, however, does not stop there. As the report shows nearly $200,000 are annually paid for Fire Insurance in this city. Of this large sum, the merest trifle, comparatively speaking, re mains in oar midst. Nearly all the money is sent oil of the State to swell the dividends of men who have Dot a dollar invested in Geor gia, and who do not even offer their patrons here any security that their policies will be paid At all in the event of tire destroying their property. Oue means ot remedying the existing evil is to organize a ctmpany of our own, und that the report strongly recommends. Not long ago we poiuted out the necessity for such a company, and we can now add noth ing to what the reader will find stated in the report. It is not proposed to drive the for eign companies out ot the State. The re port, however, recommends that each compa ny be required to deposit $50,000 with the Comptroller General as security for the faith ful carrying out ot their obligations. This is an admirable recommendation, to which we would add a proviso, that the $50,000 be in bonds of the State of Georgia. While *«eli a re inirsment would probably influence a few companies to withdraw their agencies from the State, the most prompt paying and the most solvent would cheerfully comply with it and remain. We have neither time nor space to review the report at length, but we most heartily in- doiseit, and trust that the Chamber of Com merce will adopt it lu submitting it, Mr. Stephens, the Chairman, and Mr. Garratt. c tmpiising a majority of the committer, have performed well the duty alloted them. While a few men may be temporarily injured by the adoption of the report, the masses who have property to insure will be benefitted; and we believe in subordinating the interests of the few to the interests of the many.

The Hall and galleries ot the House ot Itep- rcsent&tives were well filled last night by an intelligent audience assembled to hear tbe previously announced address of Dr. H. V. M.

Aft r sscendiug the stand the hinging by the choir, under the direc ion cl Professor Jlarmsetl, was next in order, aud such as to lend inspiration to the c c -ustcai. Prayer was then offered l»y Uc\.

How such results are accomplished may be .ucer tained by noticing what Samuel did ami what he did not lu this the most important and remarkable features are to be found iu what he did not, for daring hi* administra tion he passed net a sirg’.e law’. But lo what ho did. lie established justice, enforced the law, and diffused intelligence br inaugurat ing a system of scho ds for the instruction <•! the young. Thc^e were his active duties. Instead of enacting laws, he lead and impressed upon the memory the sta u is tm ( had existed for centuries. He aimed at sta bility in jurisprudence. The p ople were oppressed, hut no relitf came. We had no account thHt he created a public debt for his posterity to pay off and discharge while Ihe the enemy were expelled without war, yet on one occasion some of his countrymen went out to fight, but had no manner of weapous. To them Gov. Brown’s pik'S would have been a God send. Samuel’s object was lo leach the people that negotiation is the proper me thod for adjusting disputes, and it is gratify- i ig to see that two gieafc powers I a *e late y iudoiscd his policy. War is anti-Christian, an 1 mi!itar3* schools were not encouraged —nay, did not exist un der Samuel's rule. Three thousand 3*enrs ngo this Hebrew man bail sense enough to arrivo At these conclusions. What right has any young man to meddle with the implement-, of war—ot destruction, (This was received by the audience as a stroke at the volunteer companies.) Why should we who live nn der a more glorious dispensation encourage a spirit of hostility or Antipathy. Dors tbe New Testament anywhere sanction war? The history of the times shows that about tvery thirty years the yooug meu and a few old fools become res'.less and dissatisfied, and en deavor to excite the populace to engage iu war. Samuel created no monopolies or corporations to benefit some to the detriment of others. Samuel’s people final!}’ became dissatisfied and clamored for a chaugo. The}’ wanted a Kiug. They complained that the Judges perverted judgment, took bribes and loved lucre. They talked in plain language. We would call this “developing resource?,” or “back salary grab.” Samuel yielded to their voice, but still served them by preparing and submit- a constitute! n for the kiug sigu as a compact with the people. He advised with Saul until he became odious, and thi n he retired to serve bis country as Superintendent of the University w hich he had already estab lished. The above are but u lew of the many inter esting points made and beautifully elaborated, liis remarks occupied about an hour and twenty minutes, and were listened to with profound attention. Miny who never before heard the doctor were out, and expressed sur prise and gratification at liis great oratorical and thinking powers. Dr. Miller on this occasion fully sustained his reputation as one of the most effective ex temporaneous speakers iu all the South. This w as an able effort, aud those who failed to bear him can scarcely find recompense for the omission. J, Wells Williams, LL.
