mors Telegraph <f' Messenger: The
jjl Convention of the Protestant Episco-
V^urch, of the Diocese of Georgia, ad-
I ^oed «’"« on Friday evening last, at a
I iwvhie ^ our ’ a ^ tcr a ses£ i° n °f four days, in
I ti® c 11 considerable amount of business
I L transacted and various matters fully and
I ejr di«ossed. Some thirty or forty minis*
-andlay delegates were in attendance and
*!!* interest was manifested by the congre-
E '- n of Sr. Paul’s Church here in the
jn s of the Convention. .Before final ad-
I Aliment, the Convention unanimously
Xted a resolution extending their heart-
•Vk thanks to the citizens of Albany for their
Icious reception and very hospitable enter
tainment, and many of the divines took oc-
«Son W £tate i publicly, that their sojourn
been pleasant in the extreme, and
jwyould be most happy to assemble in Con
ation in this city again at an early day.—
a iood many of the delegates left lor their
rtj L c tive homes on Saturday last, but a
jjaiber remained over until to-day.
fie services in the church, yesterday, were
,f,veiy imposing character. At 10, a. m.,
I jj£op Beckwith delivered a most eloquent
.J impressive discourse to a very large and
itttife ent congregation. The. church was
SeJ to overflowing; even tho aisles and vea-
^jf cW ere blocked up with people anxious
vi listen to the teachings of so eminent a dis-
S '° *r of Divine Truth. In the evening,
house was again crowded to excess. The
I *nnon was preached by the Kov. Dr. Bene-
kj after which the rite of confirmation was
iim'inistercd to six persons, Bishop Beckwith
ISfcs-iug them at length in words of warn-
tewd encouragement.
Xhc church here has a good organ and a
rtrvfinc choir, and the singing, both in the
joining and evening, was excellent. .
Kora town oi Albany s size and population,
ue is forcibly struek with the smallness of
the variom churches. The Episcopal, Mcth-
v.Presbyterian buildings arc quite
small e:i i their capacity very limited. The
Kpiscop-! could perhaps accommodate 300
while the other two I do not think
Sd ~ Jt over 200 each. Still I am told that
the ttweity of each is amply sufficient on or-
occasions for the congregation, which
roes to prove that many of the people here
are not much given to church-going. As far
jj tay observation has extended, however, the
morals of the town are very good. I have
seen hat little dissipation; and everything ap-
tewi to move on quietly and orderly. The
toubi men generally are sober and industri
ous, energetic and persevering, and attend to
business with a fidelity which speaks well for
•he community. So, though the people may
:ot be very religious still they have a great
^•ord for morality, which, according to an
iaineut divine, is only one step removed from
oelirioD.
On yesterday, a party of eighteen or twenty
lilies aud gentlemen came up from Thomas-
on the South Georgia and Florida road
ni remained in town until this morning. As
suteii iu my last, it will be some time before
the passenger train commences to run regu
larly on this road, although it is now wcil
built to within a mile or two of the city. Tho
Company propose tho erection of a large ai.d
substantial warehouse on the opposite side of
tie river lor the accommodation of farm.-rs in
that section, which will be quite convenient
»d arc them the expense of toll for hauling
their produce across the Tift bridge. The
road will cross the river above this bridge, and
in the vicinity of the Southwestern depot,
there another warehouse will be built. _
In conversation with one of the engineers
today, 1 learned that the Brunswick and Al
bany road is now constructed to Warcsboro’
in bare county, about eight miles this side of
Xo.where it crosses the Gulf ltoad, and
about CTif.oni Brunswick. Tho grading and
hyin? of the iron arc being rapidly carried
hrwavd, under the supervision of Col. K.
Halbert, who, if I recollect aright, is the in-
dividunl who counted Gen. Gordon out of the
Guvcrnorddp of Georgia. Where the road
shall cross the Flint, has not yet been deter
mined on. For a distance of ten miles out
Hern this place, the river can be approached
u any point with great case, and it is a mat
ter being discussed among the engineers as to
there they w'H cross. Below the toll bridge
the river is narrower, and better situated_ for
constructing tho bridge, but as the river is a
Mvieahlc one, the Company would be com
pelled to build a draw bridge, which would
be rather expensive. I have heard it said
that there is a possibility of the two roads
uniting and building a bndge together, with
a double track, but the arrangements for this
will hardly be effected. #
Quito a heavy shower of rain fell in this
vicinity on Friday last, which has doubtless
been of great benefit to the crops. Since then
the weather has been quite cool. The gar
dens in and around the city arc in nice condi
tio;), and look very fine. Green peas, potatoes,
radishes, etc., are plentiful.
I see that iu your issue of the Cth, you take
notice of an incident which occurred in the
Circuit Court at Quincy, Fix, a tew daysago,
and mentioned by a correspondent of the
Horidian at Tallahassee. Your correspondent
ffas prejent in th*e court on that day, and
heard the confession of a negro juror that he
had taken an oath never to find one of his
own color guilty when a white man was a
party to the controversy or had an interest in
the verdict The negro was a loyal leaguer,
ind the day before he had served as a juror m
he trial of a criminal offence, the prisoner
ring a negro and the result a mistrial.
IVhcn called again the nexr day to serve on
he jury, the prosecuting attorney had the
food sense to question him, when tho above
act was disclosed. The Judge ordered his
tame to be immediately stricken from the list
.9 an incompetent juror, and the Solicitor re-
aarkedthat if the Grand Jury had not ad-
inmed tho day before, ho would have him
idicted for perjury- The presiding Judge
as the Horn F. W. White, an old, reliable
ad much esteemed citizen of Gadsden county,
•lx, a man whose honesty, probity and mteg-
fay of character has never been impeached,
ini a Judge who administers the law in a lair
lad impartial manner. He is well known per
sonally to the writor, and. this.statement is
made to prevent any injustice being done him
by those unaoquainted with his character,
the juries in Florida are composed largely
)f ignorant negroes. They are selccvcd from
the list of registered voters to the county
Mramissioners, who arc appointed by tne
Radical Governor, Reid, and consist gen-
:rally of men of his own political stnpe. Each
iaunty has five commissioners, and in many
uses two and three outof the five are negroes,
■tho select just such persons to serve as grand
uid petit jurors as they know will view mat
ters from a Radical stand-point. The admis
sion made by the negro juror in Quincy, is
iust what would faff from the bps of mne-
tenths of them, if, upon-being questioned,
they would give a truthful answer. But now
that this discovery has been made, the alarm
will be communicated throughout the otate
by the mean and contemptible white, men
who control them, and no more will be taugn.
in such a trap; for they will swear positively
that they never took such an oath,, and that
theyareprepared to render a verdict m accord
ance with the evidence.. And there will be no
possible way of convicting them of perjury or
anything else. AU this is but the legitimate
result of Radical teaching, propagated by that
Powerful engine of discord and strife, the
bovalLeaguo of America- . ,
But to return to Albany: The longer I re
main here the better I like the, place. The
People are generons and hospitable, and a
stranger moving about among them meets
*ith that kind and indulgent treatment which
makes him feel perfectly at home.
In the way of hotels, Albany has two—tho
Barnes House and Towns’ Hotel. Tho latter
is located near the eastern terminus of Broad
street, and is kept by Messrs. Warren &
The Macon train arrives here about 3, p. »r.,
and in a little while the mail is distributed
and the office opened, when the rush for the
news commences. I go quietly in, and find
regularly in my box a copy of the Telegraph
& Messenger, which affords me ample in
tellectual enjoyment for the balance of the
day. I think it is, without a doubt, one of,
if not, the best paper in the South, and I look
for it as anxiously as I do for the arrival of my
dinner-hour, which will sound a little dubious
to those who know me well. Your paper
should have a large circulation in this part of
Georgia. It is received on the same day it is
published and always contains the latest and
most reliable intelligence. More anon. D.
TIic General Conference.
Memphis, May 9, 1870.
Oa Saturday a great many memorials were
presented, but as they will come np again I will
not dwell upon them now. Some will cause
lengthy discussions, as they propose changes
that affect the very existence of the itineracy
This peculiarity gone, and Methodism would bo

Our Georgia delegation have made a fine im

tho citizens. Tho Appeal this mornip" «'<•*"*
tribute to three of them: den. Oolqnitt, Judge
» aou tool. Lester. Although filled with
orrors as to facts, jet it was well intended as
well as deserved.
On Saturday the Conference adjourned to
attend the Memorial Association ceremonies at
Elmwood. A large crowd was there. The cer
emonies were very imposing. The address of
General Bates was exceedingly fine. Every
body was load in its praise. It was a gala day,
one long to be cherished by the country, where
all meD, witbont regard to class or religion,
meet together to miDgle their tears nnd prayers
over tho graves of the fallen heroes of tho Lost
Cause.
This morning tho Conference opened as usual
by the call of conferences, and another lot of
memorials, petitions and papers were reported
and referred to appropriate Committees.
Bishop Andrew, the senior Bisbap, gavo the
Conference one of his fatherly talks. It was
full of pathos and feeling. He deprecated the
desire manifested upon the part of many to be
constantly changing roles and laws of the
church. He also condemned in strong language
the disposition to eulogize and glorify each oth
er in newspaper articles. This evil, he said,
was growing in the church, and was disgusting
the better portion of the membership. He
hoped to see no more of it. He reviewed the
past four years of his life, remarking that that
would be bis last General Conference. Ho
asked the prayers of the assembly.
A resolution was offered by Dr. Pitts, of
Tennessee, and seconded by Dr. Evans, of
Georgia, instructing the Committee on Episco
pacy to appoint one of the Bishops or some
other suitable person to write the life of the late
Bishop Jsshua Soule.
To-day it was found neccssaTy to put on tho
breaks, and after a warm discussion it was re
solved to receive no new matter after Saturday
the 14th inst. And also a resolution to adjourn
sine die on the 23d of May. This will be well
if there is no move for reconsideration. No one
can divine the future, however. All delibera
tive bodies take great pleasure in nndoing what
they adopt.
Thus far the health of the delegation has been
remarkably good. No one from Georgia has
been the least indisposed.
The remarkable unity of action upon the part
of tho laity on all questions, has been a subject
of comment. It is evident that they are a
strong power, and will have great influence in
determining the legislation of this body.

That Libel Suit.
The Atlanta Constitution, of yesterday, has

Gov. Bullock Sues the Constitution for Twenty-
fee Thousand Dollars—An Indignant Uadi-
cal Executive on a Squelching Expedition—
A Tornado Started.
Yesterday afternoon, Governor Bullock filed
a formidable suit against the Constitution in the
Supremo Court of Fulton county. Immediately
after the filing, the concern was withdrawn by
tho Attorneys of the Executive. It would have
afforded ns pleasure to have furnished our
readers with the interesting contents of this
belligerent document, but as wo have not bad
a glimpse at its inspiring contents, there must
be a temporary deprivation of that felicity.
Perhaps the Radical organ will favor us.
We are informed, however, that the ground
of tho suit is the article sent us by our Wash
ington correspondent, “Argus,” furnished him
by “Y,” the correspondent of tho Baltimore
Gazette, charging Gov. Bullock with having
sold the State Road to the Express Company.
His exasperated Excellency, wo are informed,
lays his damage at tho small sum of twenty-five
thousand dollars. John L. Hopkins and Judge
Brown are his Attorneys.
Hurry up, gentlemen! We aro curious to
road that concern, and the readers of The Con
stitution, we know, will be burning to peruse
the Governor’s eloquence.
Let ua have it, Governor.
Gov. Baud, of Idaho, was serenaded in At

in the presence of a thousand enthnsiastic peo
ple. The Governor gavo vent to a good many
opinions, one of which was that Georgia is the
proudest State the sun shines on, in spite of all
her political troubles. The Governor was fol
lowed by CoL Thomas P. Soffold, “who paid
a glowing tribute to tho Governors of Georgia,
from Oglethorpe to Joe Brown, where he plead

The nominal defeat of the North Pacific Railroad
bill causes much comment. It was backed by an

State Department buildiDg, were nays, Messrs.
Casserly, Chandler, Cragen, Harlan, Harris, How

c; l imns of the Tribune.
To-day’s Tribune says: “Mr. Wilson consents,
wo regret to see and say, that tbe clause of his
Army bill reducing the forces to 25000 men shall bo
struck out on the argument of Southern Senators
that it won’t do to take any troops from the South,
and on that of Western Senators that additional
forces aro needed in the West to fight the Indians.
It does not appear to havo been suggested to tho
Southern gentlemen that a safer policy for that
section would be to rule by law and amity rather
than by fear and proscription. The Western Sena
tors will discover eventually what they do not ap
pear now to know, that it Is cheaper to feed than
to fight Indians; and as the people havo forgotten
past animosities towards the rebels, and heartily
favor redeeming present promises to tho Indians,
we suggest that the further military occupation of
the South, and an expensive war in the West, are
not absolutely essential to tbe well being of the
republic.

mission met in Philadelphia in 1869, whero resolu

under its use the ulcers gradually healed, and her
general health greatly improved. It co:tainly saved
her much suffering, and perhaps her life. I regard
Koskoo a specific for all scrofulous affections. Your

sho suffered greatly. She i3 now in better health than
she has been in fivoycars. With tho highest regards,

J. J. LiWRKXcs, M. D,—Dear Sir: I cheerfully
endorse ynnr Koskoo as being a most valuable prepa
ration. Upon examination of the formats, I find
eaehiugredientbighly extolled by oar best and most
progressive clinical investigators. I have tested its
effects In my own practice, and hare no hesitation in
recommending It. In my opinion, it is the beitoom-
poundnfits class ever put before the public-exceed
mg by far all the various oomponds of sarsaparilla,
Ac., everinvented. It is a decided Nerve Tonic, and
Invigorator of tho animal forces, aiding digestion
and assimilation, and thereby prodccing healtbv
blond, which should be the basis of treatment in all
chronio diseases. Hoping you will reap the reward
you deservefrom the public as a benefactor. I am sir.
yours truly, CHARLES LLOYD, M. A.
