He Addressee Itae members of the Legisla ture Explaining liis Political Course- lie Tells Some Facts Relating to the Ac tion of the Government in Connection with tlic East Georgia Election—His Con nection with the State Road Lease. To the Members Elect of the General Assembly of Georgia : Because of the facts herein slated, I deem it my duty respeclfully to make directly to you this communication: Fending the canvass for your election,in 1870, I came in possession of information which sat isfied my mind that in tho event of a decided Democratic success in that election, an effort would be made to set aside the result, if a pre text therefor could be obtained. In other words, another reconstruction of the State wbs to be attempted, so far at least as to exclude from their seats successfnlDemocrats and the substi- tion of their defeated opponents, sufficient to change tbo political complexion of the Assem bly. I did not doubt—have never doubted— such Democratic success in Georgia on existing issues, and have always believed that success would be increased in exact proportion as the balloting was free, quiet and fair, and the count ing of the votes was correct and honest. While this reconstruction was the fixed pur pose of an extreme faction of one party, I greatly feared the unnecessary and intemperate, though doubtless patriotic zeal, of extreme men in the Democratic party would furnish the pretoxt to give this purposo success. With such a result again fixed upon us, I could see no peace or prosperity for Georgia. By such repeated move ments in the past, onr property had been de preciated, our business paralyzed, our burdens increased, aud our hopes of recuperation post poned and disappointed, until I could see noth ing but irretrieveable ruin beyond a second repetition. I could imagino no higher patriotic motive than that of averting, by honorable moans if possible, such a catastrophe, and I un dertook that work. Mature reflection and cIoro observation had, before that time, entirely satisfied me that, right or wrong, the 14th and 15th amendments would be held to have become fixed parts of the Constitution, and that as 6ucb, and as, in their opinion, embodying the final and permanent results of the war, they would be recognized by all tbe people of all parties at the North, and that no national party could or wonldtake issue upon them, as such results, in the Presidential canvass of 1872. The time had thus come for the Southern people to accept, as accomplished facts, what they did not adopt by consent, and obey what they could not resist. Thus informed and thus convinced, I deemed it my solemn duty to remove as far as my act could all pretext for interference with what I did not doubt would be the result of the elec tion. With this distinct and single purpose, I issued two weeks before the eleotion the address of December 8tb, urging our people to recog nize all the civil and political rights conferred by these amendments, and to protect, avow edly, all persons in the exercise of those rights. This address had at least the effect of placing JP -j. - — me in position to be heard in the sequel. tored a heavy gale and split her sail3 and spruDg The election resulted as I anticipated. But, »le&k. “also, as I feared, the actions and expressed views *— - ■ * of some of friends in different portions of tho State, were really or intentionally misconstrued as designed to intimidate and defraud the col ored voters, and were, in fact, made the founda tion for an earnest effort to set aside the elec tion in the manner indicated above. It so hap pened I was in a position to be informed of tbis movement, and I did not shrink from the im perative duty of meeting it. It was defeated, and for the first time since the work of recon struction began a Legislature in Georgia, as chosen by the people, will assemble and qualify and act. I congratulate yon and the people on this auspicious result. I do not propose now to go into the details. Yon shall have them if desirable, for though it has been proper to withhold them from the publio heretofore, there was nothing said or done by me or by those with whom I acted, which yon and the public may not know after you have entered upon yonr duties. In some respects the work was not pleasant, bnt he has little oonrage and less worth who fails in duty because in some of its features and associations it is personally unpleasant. I will make two general remarks: Tbe first is, that for discharging only my duty I have received only unmitigated slanders from those who made the duty a necessity; and some who were provoking, and miserable carpet bag- g6rs who were actually using the provocations to accomplish, another reoonstrnetion, have actually joined in unique coalition in these slanders. The second remark is, that I have heard kind words, and witnessed a manifest readiness to hear trnth and deal justly on the basis of the constitution, on the part of some high in national position, from whom we have been taught to expect neither kindness nor justice. Bnt it is to the following facts I desire now, in justice to myself, to call your special attention. I had no right to make, and did not make any pledges or promises for you. I made none for myself. None were exaoted from either. I did,_ however, in the most emphatic terms, re pudiate all the pretences for the fears alleged to be entertained of ultra measures to be adopted by yon, and I did express the opinion that yonr election represented the true will of our people, and that, in the expression of that will through your legislation, you would recognize and obey the existing Constitution of the United 8tates as proclaimed by the authorities of tho United States, and that yon wonld observe, respect and protect equally all the civil and political rights of all persons withont regard to “caste, color or previous condition of servitude,” as provided by tho Constitution, and by all tho amendments thereto. Those who sought reconstruction made earnest representations to tho contrary and urged, in support of their representations, the action of the Democrats who united with some white Republicans in exoluding the colored members from their seats in a former Legisla ture, and tho violent utterances and alleged ac- tionof some of r our leading men before and daring the election, resulting, as they insisted, in the choice of many of you os the exponents of the views and policy of these gentlemen. I have an nndonbting faith that your wisdom and p 'iotism will amply justify and vindicate my op.nion of your official action. While,- on the one hand, it is scarcely neces- es3ary for me to say I wonld not, nnder any circumstances, advise onr people to become consenting parties to the adoption of measures dishonoring to them; so, on the other hand, I can never counsel continued opposition to meas ures adopted and facts accomplished as declared by the constituted authorities of the govern ment, and as submitted to by the people; espe cially when such opposition cannot change re sults, and will be regarded as manifesting a fretful spite inimical to the government, weak ening to our friends, and which is always made tbe occasion and excuse for continued oppres sions upon ourselves. This Bimple statement, so consistent and manifestly reasonable, embodies all tbo philos ophy of my politics nndor reconstruction, and formed the confident basis of my opinion that you would, in good faith, recognize the Constitu tion as it is in all yonr legislative functions; and upon this basis I sought to remove, as far as I could, all the apprehensions which threatened our State with the inexpressible horrors of an other reconstruction. Whether that is law which every department of government, State and National, recognizes, administers and executes as law, and to which all the people submit, is, with me, not a debate- able question. Therefore. I did not doubt when! issued the address of December, that the recognition of all the amendments, whether regularly or irregularly made, wonld form com mon gronnd for all parties in 1872, and tbe dif- j ferences between parties wonld arise in the con- ‘ strnction, meaning and effect of tho amend ments. It is singular that men, claiming to be statesmen, should say there was no gronnd for snch differences. These differences are exactly those between removingand continuing political disabilities upon white people; between cen tralism and constitutionalism; between carry ing on tbe revolution and stopping it: Every Democratic Convention which has as sembled since December has confirmed the cor rectness of my views then expressed, and I havo no doubt your action will also confirm them, and tho people of Georgia will sustain yon with a voice approaching unanimity. There is one other subject to which I beg permission to call yonr attention: I am one of the lessees of the Western and Atlantic Railroad, —property of the State. I havo always felt an aversion to “trading with the State.” *But it is the duty of every patriot to conform his action and views to the good 'of the public, and pecu liarly so nnder the necessities resulting from a revolution. In the fall of 1870 a patriotic and able mem ber of the General Assembly then in session, called my attention, to the fact that this road was in danger of being utterly lost to the Stato. Numberless bonds were being authorized to bo issued, and a proposition was ponding to sell the road, with a view, it was believed, of mak ing nominal payment in these bonds. This gentleman believed there was bnt one way to defeat tbis scheme, and that was by a bill to lease tbe road. I concurred earnestly in the wisdom of that measure. It was adopted. Be ing thus, in some degree, responsible for tbe law to lease, I determined to do all in my power to secure a good, safe and reliable lease. While not in all respects, as I would have preferred, I believe the company formed, is as good and as safe as can be found and the rental paid is reas onable. I believe tbis measure has already saved to the State more than one million of dol lars. I believe it will save millions of money, and more than millions of corrnption in the fu ture. I believe, therefore, it is best for the State that the lease be sustained and the com pany encouraged to keep and observe it. While, therefore, I have determined never to surrender the road into the hands of those who were run ning it withont profit to the State, bnt who were taxing the people to keep it up; so, on the oth er hand, it is well known that, for one, I hold it subject to the will of the true owners, and ready to return it when safe and proper to do so, and tho people desire it. So now I say to you, and invite- your closest scrutiny and honest judg ment in the premises. And now £ feel that all my duties tonchingthe matters referred to are fully discharged. In some respects they have been the most • npleas- ant of my life. They have certainly been the most mistaken and misrepresented. Yet I be lieve they have accomplished more immediate and practical beneficial results than any acts of my life. In all this I havo done nothing to serve parly, to destroy party, or to build up new par ties, nor to promote any selfish end, and I de spise the dirty slanderers, anonymous cowards, and cent-per-cent sensational writers who have made such charges. “They are all liars and the truth is not in them.” I have had no pur pose but to secure once more and on an honor able basis a true representation of tbe people of the State, and to save tho property of that peo ple. With an inward consciousness that my motives were patriotic, and with a positive knowledge that my humble efforts were bearing good fruits for the people, aud for none more than for my slanderers, I have abided in tbe faith that the time would come when justice would be aocorded me, and when (as I notified them as early as December last) my detractors would find “they had only made a record for themselves of which they would be ashamed if they possessed the sensibilities of gentlemen.” With a lively hope that yonr labors will achieve mnch good for onr long oppressed com monwealth; that all sectional bitterness will subside; that all personal acrimony will cease; and that the terrible revolution which has bnried so many brave men, which has destroyed so mnch valuable property, which has subverted so many valued rights, and which ba3 broken so maDy hearts and hopes, has fonnd a final end, I am, with high regard, yours very truly, Beni.

Last year the September receipts amounted to 9,362 bales. This year they only reaoh 2,212. From the Chicago Jonrnal, September 20.] Deab Sib: Yon have recently said, in the Golden Age: “I hold that love, and love only, constitutes the marriage; that marriage makes the bond, and not tbe bond the marriage; and that, as the contract is to love and honor, so that when the love and honor end, the contract dissolves and the marriage ceases.” Doubtless this is practically true. If you fail to do what you promise to do; if the fulfillment ceases en tirely, and the bond is by you utterly broken and thrown away, undoubtedly your crime is the death of the contract. That fact was toler ably familiar as far back as the Stone Age, the savage philosophy of which yon will hardly bo able to prove a golden fruit of new culture. There probably is not a decent woman on the globe who, properly comprehending your state ment, will not confess its ugly truth. A prom ise to pay dies when the paying finally ceases. A promise to love and honor dies when tho lov ing and honoring finally cease. The bright honor of the promise being gone, its veracity gone, everything that it was entirely gone, of course it is gone, with all which it oreated. And that is yonr theory of the treatment of woman, to get rid of the marriage by getting rid of the contract creating it, and to get rid of the con tract by the method of dishonor! I tako in hand tho case whioh yon commonly pat, that of the man against the woman. Yon say, “I would no more permit the law of tho land to enchain me to a woman whom I did not love than I wonld permit the same law to hand cuff me as aslave.” I omit part of your sentence, which does not affect the case of man simply, in his treatment of woman and wife. In what I quote you declare that you will not permit tho law of the land to hold yon to yonr own iree promise and sacred contraot. Have yon no logic ? Is this a qnestion of taking you by foroe and handcuffing yon to a.woman against yonr will? If it is not, then there is no argument in your comparison. Is slavery the slave’s free and honorable contract? If it is not, then there is not a jot of reason in ths assumed analogy. No, Sir; this is a question of your contract with a woman, made upon free and urgent de sire, freely and deliberately made, made with the combined seriousness and sacredness of re ligion and law, religion for the reality of the bond, and law for the cover and form of the bond, the religion not leaning one whit for trnth on the law, nor the law intruding one hair’s breadth upon the religion, but both agreeing to seal a contract the most firm and sure, as it is the most free and deliberate, known to human economy. The matter of some other relation than a mar riage of love and honor would of course raise other questions. But these I need not discuss. If one wants a concubine, one or more, the world is wide and hell thereof sufficiently ac cessible. But I assume that you mean, not that conscionsly and deliberately, but good and trne marriage. Therefore, I am bound to find in your words the declaration that you will not let the law of the land hold you to your own free and solemn contract. And your reason for re fusing to have the for mot horn* maintained by the law i3 that you do not mean to be held to the fact of honor. It is not that you would have religion alone constrain yon to fulfill your con tract, but that you want a chance to violate your contract. You say “love shonld be like religion, free from mandate by tho civil law,” and you prophesy that “the next generation will gild this sentiment with fine gold." The sentiment has been done in brass a sufficiently long time to be familiar, and would not be much improved if the next generation should make of it a golden calf. I mean tbe sentiment of love free to vio late contracts. You seem to invoke religion; in fact, yon invoke nothing but rascality. For yon demand freedom to violate the religion, as well as the law, of marriage, to break yonr re ligious promise a3 well a3 your legal. You only care to have the law let you alone in order that yon may leave the woman to whom religion lias bonnd yon. There is bat one ground whioh I need con sider here to make plain tho infamous character of the license to violate both religion and law which yon demand for yourself; and that is the reason whioh tho woman you wish to put away had to require of yon a contract, a deeply relig ious and firmly legal contract, as the basis of marriage. Yon desired her to give you, irrevo cably, that honor of person and of life, which is the sacrament of her existence. You wished to take from her sureties of marriage which* once given are forever given. There doubtless are females diseased in body and imagination from their birth, to whom honor i3 not honor under any constraints of solemn promise of un changing fidelity. Bnt tho average decent wo man, to whomnakednessisnot necessary to the perfect luxury of chastity, requires, and must always require, the strongest assurance of that protection for her honor which only a deeply re ligions promise of unchanging fidelity can give. If you do not mean to offer this in seeking a woman in marriage, then yon do not mean love and honor, and propose a marriage which is a swindle and an ontrago. Such rascality is but too possible where there is question of winning a woman, the winning to enjoy is so much more to the average male mind than the winning to love and honor. In a state of double guardian ship of woman, by religion and by law, it is stiil a fearfully common thing for men to simu late or imagine, nnder the impulse cf desire, love and honor which do not exist. Hence the necessity to woman of law to give form to the fact, or the fancy, of love and honor, which form her sole security in marriage. Law will forbid the man to let his desires wander; it will, at least, cotnpell him to maintain a decent form of permanent protection for woman. The doable contract, relieions for tbe real fact, and legal for the outward cover and form, is no more than woman may demand. I have spoken only of tho woman’s honor. It wero enough to speak of that. But beyond that is her chance in life, whioh, on the average, is terribly injured by tbo miscarriage of a mar riage- relation. She can give bnt once the fairest freshness of her nature. Too often, if set aside, she must remain a rejected thing, perhaps helpless to live, except by methods of direct toil or uttermost shame. It must be more than a slight cause, more than an ordinary rea son, which can make her willing to forego the form at least of love and honor, which may be decent even if it be empty. But, still more, there is motherhood, adding in every way to tho stringency of tho necessi ties already considered. The mother and chil dren must live, mnathave care and kindness for yeara onward into the future, must depend on the marriage already existing, and on the hus band and father whose is the sole responsibility in the matter, and must look for love and honor, in form at least and decency, if notin faot and blessed sweetness, to the man who stands be fore God and the law held to render these by the most solemn of contracts. Therefore woman cannot bat ask for, yea, insist on, this donble contract. Religion alone wonld answer the pur pose if it wonld enchain wandering desires and handcuff libertine rascality. But this religion alone cannot do, as surely as law, with religion, can do it. The man who honestly means a re ligious contract, cannot refu3e to woman the added assurance of the legal contract. If any man does not honestly mean what be promises to enohain and handcuff him is utterly and ab solutely neceseary, if restraint of wrong doing, is anywhere a necessity. No other than a crimi nal can feel his contraot with a woman as chains and slavery. ■What, then, Mr. Tilton, do you mean by your declaration that yon will not let the law of the land hold yon to a contraot which yon wish to violate? If yon mean criminal outrage, you will find the law of the land able to hold you, or at least able to brand you as a monster. In tho last issne of the Golden Age, yon ar gue the matter again. You say that “Love is love—not liking, not friendliness, not kindne3S, not esteem, but love—and if a man has ceased to feel it for the woman who sits at the other end of his breakfast table, which is the most moral—or tho least immoral if yon will—for him to break the chains which bind him, break them as gently and unselfishly as he may, bnt in some wise set himself free, put himself in a position to live a trne life; or to wear his fet ters uncomplainingly, silently, but invoking meanwhile all the lightnings of heaven to do for him what he has not the oonrage to do for himself?" If this were meant for the personage of a gay rake, justifying variety “at the head of his breakfast table, I conld understand it. You speak of the man only, as if the woman were not of much account in the matter. You seem to hold her cheaper than men of free lives oom- tmonly hold a mistress. Her honor, which yon cannot give back, her wifehood, which rests on her honor, her motherhood, which must con tinue none the less for yonr discretion, and to which you owe eternal fidelity, ihese you make of no aooount—she merely “sits at the head of your table,” and it is a qnestion of leaving her tp sit there alone, or of driving her ont into the world. And that yon call the Age of God. It looks to me more like the time when tools were liness in yonr whimpering appeal to the moral law as rated the breasts of rude cave-dwellers, who would have broken yonr head with a stone hatchet, and served you right, if you had thus proposed to quit your marital obligations. Yon might easily be set down as half fool and half knave in this plea, if it were possible to see that in either character you are all deficient. You sit there wishing her dead; you confess that what you thus do ‘'has the spirit of mur der in it.” You quote a church member who said that it was impossible for human nature not to cherish this mnrderons wish nnder suoh circumstances; and then yon triumphantly ask whether it is better to murder the woman or to put her away. Either may be better for the woman, but the question is what yon are bound to do, not what is worst of tho crimes yon say yon intend to choose between. PimrciAL MD COMMERCIAL. SJLV4NNAH GARBS. Bev.

DELIVERED AT ATLANTA, TUESDAY, SEPT. 12, 1871. From the Atlanta Constitution.] R. B. Bullock, Governor, vs. J. W. Hancock et al. Forfeiture of recognizance, from Upson. Lo<ftraANE, O. J.—Where the p&rdon of tho Governor was pleaded by the sureties in dis charge of their bond for the appearance of their principal, and the recital of facta in the par don showed that It was not applied for by the accused, who was out of the State, and the plea failed to show its delivery to him and acceptance by him, and the court sustained a demurrer to the plea. Held, Under the facts there was not error. Assuming that nnder the Constitution of 1868 the Governor may exercise the pardoning power before conviotion, (see decision of this conrt in Dominiok vs. Jailer, Spalding county, and 29 Mis. 300,) yet pardons before conviction are based upon the coafesaion of tho imputed guilt by the accused, and before such pardon takes effect it must be accepted by tbe accused, and when the plea of pardon by sureties fails to set np its acceptance by their principal, evidenced by his application for the pardon and delivery to him or his aoceptanee of it when done, the pardon granted withont the application of the principal, and not evinced by his acceptance of it, is of no effeot. Judgment affirmed. MoOay, J., concurring upon the grounds above stated. He is not decided as to the legal ity of a pardon before conviction. Wabneb, J., concurring.—I concur in the judgment of affirmance in this case, on the ground that the Governor had no legal power or authority under the Constitution of this State to grant a pardon before trial and oonviction of the defendant for tho offense with which he was charged. Doyal & Nunnally, J. L Hall, for plaintiff in error. Smith & Alexander, L.B. Anderson, Solicitor General, contra. Scott, Bondurant and Adams vs. W. A. Fat- rick. Garnishment from Fniton. MoOay, J.—1. When a suit war brought in a justice’s court for an amount over fifty dollars and a summons of garnishment isaned to a debtor of the defendant requiring him to appear and answer on the day fixed for the trial of the original suit, ahd the garnishee failed to answer on that day: 2. Held, That as by section 3228 of the Code final judgment cannot go against the garnishee until a term subsequent to that at which he is required to answer, it is the doty of the magis trate to continue the proceeding against the garnishee, by formal entry on his docket, to a snbseqnent day, not less remote than the num ber of days required by law for tho service of tho original summons against the defendant in the suit, and any judgment against the gar nishee, before the day to whioh the case is eon- tinned, is illegal. 2. When a certiorari has been sanctioned bnt no notice, in writing, has been given to the op' posite parly of tho samo ten days before the term to whioh the certiorari is returnable; but It is in writing agreed between the parties that the decision of the court upon the points made in the certiorari shall determine certain other oases sueiug on the same points that is sub' stantially a waiver of the notice and an agree ment that the certiorari shall be decided upon its merits. E. P. Howell for Scott, Bondurant & Go. Hiilyer & Bro., contra. Peek Sc Boman vs. Connally Sc Bro. Illegality, from Fulton. McCay, J.—The 5th section of Act 28lb, 1870, Which authorizes a defendant in fi. fa. to deny unde 1 : oath the plaintiffs affidavit that the taxes due upon the debt have been paid, and provid ing that the issue thus made shall be returned and tried as other affidavits of illegality, stands upon the same footing as the first and second seotions of the act, aud is not unconstitutional. Judgment reversed, Warner, J., dissenting. Collier Sc Hoyt, for plaintiffs in error. A. W. Hammond, Sc Son, contra. E. W. Monday vs. John G. Martin. Certio rari, from Fulton. . MoOay, J.—When there was a certiorari from the County Conrt which, under the Act of 18GG_ Code 297, is to be heard by the Judge of the Superior Court in vacation or in term, as should to him seem proper, and there was tendered to the Judge in vacation a traverse of the answer of the County Court Judge, and the Judge of the Superior Court thereupon, by written order direoted the papers and tho traverse to be transmitted to the next term of the Superior Court for trial: Held, That this was a judgment of the Judge: that the traverse should be tried by the jury, and that while that judgment stands unreversed it is error to dismiss the traverse and withdraw the case from tho jury, on the ground that the traverse was not certified by the affidavit of the party making it. Judgment reversed. A. H. Colquitt vs. Mercer & deGraffenried, Plea to the jurisdiction, from DeKalb. MoOay, J. -1. Tho Act of , 1869, author izing attorneys to make oath to setting up issu able defences on suits founded on contract, does not alter section 3410 of the Code requiring pleas to the jurisdiction to be pleaded in person, to be sworn to by the defendant. 2. A plea to the jurisdiction may be filed at any time before the defendant has appeared and pleaded to the merits, and if he haB filed a plea to the jurisdiotion at the first term, whioh has been stricken because not sworn to, he may, if he has filed no plea to the merits, still file his plea to the jurisdiction. Judgment affirmed. Lochrane, G. J., concurring.—I have some doubt in tbis case as to the ruling of-the conrt construing the act of 1869. That aot declares “that from and after the passage of this sot, in all civil cases founded on contract, inhere there is nolissuable defense, and when the defendant does Vot reside in the county in which salt is pending, it shall sad maybe lawful for the agent or attorney at law of each defendant to make oath to the plea, and the same shall be as good and sufficient as if made by the defendant him self.” The Constitution, section 5174, declares “the court shall render judgment withont the verdict of a jury in all oivil cases founded on contract when an issuable defense is not filed on oath.” The question is whether the limitation in the Constitution applies to the Judge rendering the judgment without a jury, or applies to the ohar- aoter of tho issuable defense by limiting such defense to be a defense to the merits. It strikes me that the limitation is on the court. The language is in any case founded on contraot when no issuable defense has been filed on oath, the court will render verdiot without jtu-y, just as if it says in oases where an isanable defense is filed the conrt will not render judg ment without the intervention of a jury. The only question, therefore, is: Is a plea to the jurisdiotion an issuable defense ? No donbt about its being so. If it is, the court cannot give judgment; and if it is, tbe Attorney may Bwear to it by tbe act of 18G9, for the aot is, when there is an issuable defense, the Attorney- may swear to it. But the oouBtruction placed upon the Consti tution is, that it means an issuable defense t* the oontract—in other words, a plea to the "* er * its, and an attorney, by tbe act of 18G 1 'i may swear only to this “issuable defense' • It is not withont doubt in my ,ulnd but that the issuable defense contenapl***® “ 6 t ' on * stitution is any issuable once, wvmolA wruexi filed and verified, proYe»«^keoourts rendering judgment, and of 1869 authorizes the verification by ths attorney of an “issuable de fence.” That a pl«* to **»• jurisdiction being a plea required by law to be pleaded in error may by this fact not come within the spirit of the constitution, strikes my mind with reasonable force, and for this reason while a plea to the jurisdiction is an issnable defence, and while attorneys may verify issuable defense and have the Bame force as if done by the defendant in person, by the act of 1869; still, as this oourt has decided it not to apply to cases of pleas to jurisdiction, I concur in the judgment.
