LEGHLATI’iIE OF UEOBCIII Tbe Legislature of Ibis Bute will inset on lb* first Wednesdsy In January. Tbs Democrats aro lit tlm majority In both braoches. aud will, as a consequence have the otgauization In tbnir own bauds. The press of tbe State aro already oanvlng the qualification of candidates for \:ii!oiih position*, and urging tbelr favorites upon the attention of members of the I/'giiluture Qualifications being equal, all have equal claims to consideration. What is wauted in each House is an impartial presiding officer, who will respect the rights of the minority alike with tlioae of the majority aud presevro in all respects the dignity of Ills position Such au officer we trust will he selected This is of much more importance than as lo what portion of the State bn may rep reaent. The Americus Republican brings for ward Hon. W A Harris, of Worth, for President of (ho Senata,aud Hon. W I). An derson of Cobb for Speaker of the House Of tbe former geutlcmnu tbe Kcpuhli cun says "His election would insuie a faithful, prompt aud efficient presiding officer, and he a rnmplimant to, and rec ognition of the Democracy of his Disliict and especially to tha Democracy of South West Ueorgia, ever true and reliable un der all circumstances, who liava never ytt barn honored witli a State officer or a presiding officer of either bouse of tbe General Assembly. In consideration ol his worth as a man. hit high character for intrgiity aud honor, lie is commended to the Senators elect for the next presiding officer of the Senate." Of the former the same paper holds tlrr following language "Hon W 1). Anderaon would come ucarer filling the position and giving gen eral satisfaction, than any other member, ills long experience ns a legislator, his knowledge of parliamentary luw, Iris un swerving energy in businfiH*. his gentle manly depot ttuent urn! Ids popularity as u citiveu, all render him n fit mid proper person for the high position." This strong endorsement of the lb pub Mean, aud tbe well known qualification of the gentlemen named, will insure a proper consideration. Let all speak their pref erenccs freely. COL. J AMPIN K. NNi:t:ir. Tii* pres, of Hi* State, with singular unanimity, are suppotliug this gontlriimn for Secretary of State. This we are certain ly glad to see. Tried by the true stsndard of qualification',—lntegrity, competency aud fldellty--ho it eminently the man fur the place, in anyiug that much w* do not mean that there are mil other men iu the Htate equally qualified, but Mr. Bneed hat a peculiar claim upon his guild for support in hi* aipiralioue to official statlou iu the preecut instance.

Ilia pen ha* slwtys been s courseroalur of right principle* , and its power ha* often bean wielded iu the advancement of others with lets qualifications than hit to higher places lhau that which lie now seek*. Ills long connection with the press of Macou and Mavanuah lias made him aril known, especially to the people of Middle and Lower Georgia whose voice would go up in unison iu his iiehalf.

The News of the doth, thus writes of the Editor of the ENTKitfitisE Du Dicks' Lecture.—We had the pleasure of hearing only the concluding portion of the remarkable lecture, deliv end by Kev Dr W Watkins Hicks, un Friday evening last, on India The title does not indicate the cbarac ter ol the lecture. Instead of a dcscrip lion of the country und the people, the lecture was a graphic uccouul of the atroc ities of tlm East India Company, and tlm moustroua policy of tlie liriiisn Govern inent toward tlie inhabitants of India The conduct of British officials, and tlie agents of the East India Company, (liter ally carpet-baggers.) toward tlie natives, of Calcutta were depicted in livid colors and burning eloquence. Tlie parallel instinctively drawn by the audience, as the speaker would illustrute hy hmnerou* allusions tn the condition ol the South, and tlm "tender mercies'' of the "best government the world ever aiiw," elicited frequent demonstrations of sympathy with the clearly defined though veiled object of the lecture.
