He Addresses tbe Members of tbc Legisla ture Explaining ltis Political Conrse— He Tells Some Facts Relating to tbo Ac tion of the Government in Connection Hitli tlie East Georgia Election—His Con nection with tbo State Road Lease. To the Members Elect of the General Assembly of Georgia : Because of the facts herein stated, I deem it my duty respectfally to make directly to you this communication: Fending the canvass for vonr election.in 1870, I came in possession of information which sat isfied my mind that in the event of a decided Democratic success in that election, an effort wonld be made to set aside the result, if a pre text therefor coaid be obtained. In other words, another reconstruction of the State was to be attempted, so far at least as to exclude from their seats successful Democrats and the snbsti- tion of their defeated opponents, sufficient to change the political complexion of tho Assem bly. I did not donbt—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 tho fixed pur pose of an extreme faction of one patty, I greatly feared the unnecessary and intemperate, though doubtless patriotic zeal, of extreme men in the Democratic party would furnish the pretext to give this purpose success. With such a result again fixed upon ns, I conld see no peace or prosperity for Georgia. By such repeated move ments in the past, our property had been de preciated, our business paralyzed, our burdens increased, and our hopes of recuperation post poned and disappointed, nntil I could see noth ing but irretrieveable ruin beyond a second repetition. I conld imagine no higher patriotic motive than that of averting, by honorable means if possible, snch a catastrophe, and I un dertook that work. Mature reflection and oloso 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 such, and as, in their opinion, embodying the final and permanent results of the war, they wonld be recognized by all the people of all parties at the North, and that no national party conld or wonld take issne upon them, as such results, in the Presidential canvass of 1872. The time had thns come for the Southern people to accept, as accomplished facts, what they did not adopt by consent, and obey what they conld not resist. Thus informed and thns 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 election the address of December 8tb, urging our people to recog nize all tho 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 me in position to be huid in tbe sequel. The election resulted as I anticipated. But, )f as I feared, the actions and expressed views of some of friends in different portions of the 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 4he elec tion in the manner indicated above. It so hap pened I was in a position to be informed of this movement, and I did not shrink from the im perative duty of meeting it. It was defeated, and for the first time sinco the work of recon struction began a Legislature in Georgia, as chosen by the people, will assemble and qualify and act. I congratulate you and the people on this auspicious result. I do not propose now to go into the details. You 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 mo or by those with whom I acted, which yon and the pnblio may not know after yon have entered upon your duties. In some respects the work was not pleasant, but he has little courage 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: The 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 gers who were actually using the provocations to accomplish, another reconstruction, have actually joined in unique coalition in these slanders. Tho second remark is, that I have heard kind words, and witnessed a manifest readiness to hear truth 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. But 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 exacted from either. I did, however, in the most emphatic terms, re- pudiate all the pretences for the fears alleged tobe entertained of ultra measures to be adopted by you, and I did express the opinion that your election represented the true will of our people, and that, in the expression of that will through your legislation, yon would recognize and obey the existing Constitution of the United States as proclaimed by the authorities of the United States, and that you would observe, respect and protect equally all the civil and political rights of all persons withoutregard 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 the contrary a *>d urged, in support of their representations, the action of the Democrats who united with some white Republicans in excluding the colored members from their seats in a former Legisla ture, and tho violent utterances and alleged ac tion of some of our leading men before and during the election, resulting, as they insisted, in the choice of maDy of you as the exponents of the views and policy of these gentlemen. I have an nndonbting faith that your wisdom and patriotism will amply justify and vindicate my opinion of your official action. While; on the one hand, it is scarcely neces- es3ary for me to say I would not, under any circumstances, advise onr people to become consenting parties to tho adoption of measures dishonoring to them; so, on tho other hand, I can never counsel continued opposition to meas ures adopted and facts accomplished as declared by the constilnted authorities of the govern ment, and as submitted to by the people; espe cially when such opposition cannot change 10- sults, and will he regarded as manifesting a fretful spite inimical to the government, weak ening to onr friends, and which is always made the occasion and excuse for continued oppres sions upon ourselves. This simple statement, so consistent and manifestly reasonable, embodies all the philos ophy of my politics under reconstruction, and formed the confident basis of my opinion that yon would, in good faith, recognize the Constitu tion as it is in all your legislative function#; 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 donbt when I issued tho address of December, that the recognition of all the amendments, whether regularly or irregularly made, would form com mon ground for all parties in 1872, and the dif ferences between parties wonld arise in the con struction, meaning and effect of tho amend ments. It is singular that men, claiming to bo statesmen, should say there was no ground for such differences. These differences aro exactly those between removing and continuing political disabilities upon white people; between cen tralism and constitutionalism; between carry ing on tbs 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 have no donbt your action will also confirm them, and the people of Georgia will sustain you with a voice approaching unanimity. There is one other subject to which I beg permission to call your attention: I am one of the lessees of tbe Western and Atlantic Railroad —property of tbe State. I have 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 under 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 State. Numberless bonds were being authorized to bo issned, and a proposition was pending to sell the road, with a view, jt was believed, of mak ing nominal payment in these bonds. This gentleman believed there was but one way to defeat this scheme, and that was by a bill to lease the road. I concurred earnestly in the wisdom of that measure. It was adopted. Be ing thus, in some degree, responsible for the law to lease, I determined to do all in my power to secure a good, safe and reliable leaso. While not in all respects, as I would have preferred, I believe tho company formed, is as good and as safe as can bo fonnd and the rental paid is reas onable. I believe this measure has already saved to tho State more than one million of dol lars. I believe it will save millions of money, and more than millions of corruption 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 without profit to the State, but who were taxing the people to keep it np; so, on the oth er hand, it is well known that, for one, I hold it snbject to the will of the true owneis, and ready to return it when safe and propor to do so, and tho people desire it. So now I say to yon, and invito- your closest scrutiny and honest judg ment in the premises. And now I feel that oil my duties touching the 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 have done nothing to serve party, 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 trnlh 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 the 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, and for none more than for my slanderers, I have abided in the faitbthat the time wonld come when jnstice would be accorded me, and when (as I notified them as early as December last) my detractors wonld 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 your labors will achieve much good for our long oppressed com monwealth ; that all sectional bitterness will subside; that all personal acrimony will cease; and that the terrible revolution which has buried so many brave men, which has destroyed so much valuable property, which has subverted so many valued rights, and which has broken so many hearts and hopes, has found a final end, I am, with high regard, yours very truly, Bekj. H. Hell. An Incident of the Clanton Homicide.—The Knoxville Chronicle, of Friday, says: While Sheriff Gossett was in pursuit of Col. D. M. Nelson, General Clanton’s murderer, he stopped at the house of W. B. Smith, the well known liveryman, five miles from Knoxville, and riding up to the fence, asked if he had seen Dave Nelson pass down the road. Mr. Smith replied that he had, about an hour before. Mr. Gossett then rode on and Smith went into the house, and in five minutes was a corpse. It is supposed ho died from excitement, having been in feeble health for some lime. Cool.—Forney last Wednesday started out in an editorial flight as follows: The Republican party represents all that is good and pnre in government—freedom, uni versal rights, honesty, economy. Here the ink froze and his pen had to be thawed out before he could proceed. Cotton Receipts fob Septembeb.—Daring the month jast closed the receipts of cotton at this point fell short of what they were for tho same month last year, over three-fourths. Last year the September receipts amounted to 9,362 bales. This year they only reaoh 2,212. Loose Marital Notions Denounced. A LETTEB TO THEODOBE TILTON BE A “ WOMAN’S ADVOCATE.” From the Chicago Journal, September 20.] Deab Sib: You have recently said, in the Golden Age: “I hold that love, and love only, constitutes the marriage; that marriage makes the bond, and not tho 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, nndoubtedly 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 you will hardly be 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 payiDg finally ceases. A promise to love and honor dies when the lov ing and honoring finally cease. The bright honor of the promise being gone, its veracity gone, everything that it was entirely gone, of conrse it is gone, with ail which it created. And that is your 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 1 I take in hand the case whioh you commonly put, that of the man against the woman. Yon say, “I would no more permit the law of the land to enchain me to a woman whom I did not love than I wonld permit the same law to hand cuff me as a slave.” 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 you to your own 1 ree promise and sacred contract. Have yon no logic ? Is this a question of taking you by force and handcuffing you to a.woman against your will? If it is not, then there is no argument in your comparison. Is slavery the slave’s free and honorable contraot? If it is not, then there is not a jot of reason in the assumed analogy. No, Sir; this is a question of yonr 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 tho cover and form of the bond, the religion not leaning one whit for truth on the law, nor tho law intruding one hair’s breadth upon the religion, bet 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 disouss. If one wants a concubine, one or more, the world is wide and hell thereof sufficiently ao- cessible. Bat I assume that you mean, not that consciously and deliberately, but good and true marriage. Therefore, I am bound to find in your words the declaration that you will not let the law of tho land hold yon to your own free and solemn contract. And your reason for re fusing to have the form of honor 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 you to fulfill yonr con tract, but that you want a chance to violate your contract. You say “love should be like religion, free from mandate by tho civil law,” and you prophesy that “the next generation will gild this sentiment with fine gold.” Tho sentiment has been done in brass a sufficiently long time to be familiar, and wonld not be mnch improved if the next generation shonld make of it a golden calf. I mean the sentiment of love free to vio late contracts. You seem to invoke religion; in fact, you invoke nothing but rascality. For yon demand freedom to violate the religion, as well as tho law, of marriage, to break your re ligious promise as well as your legal. You only care to have the law lot yon alone in order that you may leave the woman to whom religion has bound you. There is but one ground which I need con- sider here to make plain tho infamous oharacter 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 ions 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 is not honor under any constraints of solemn promise of un changing fidelity. But tho average decent wo man, to whom nakedness is not necessary to the pejfect luxury of chastity, requires, and must always require, the strongest assurance of that protection for her honor which only a deeply re- igious promise of unchanging fidelity can give. If yon do not mean to offer this in seeking a woman in marriage, then you do not mean love and honor, and propose a marriage which is a swindle and an outrage. Such rascality is bnt 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, under the impulse of 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 double contract, relieious 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 onongh to speak of that. But beyond that is her chance in life, which, on the average, is terribly injured by tho miscarriage of a mar- riage- relation. She can give but 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 bo decent even if it be empty. Bnt, still more, there is motherhood, adding in every way to tho stringenoy of tho necessi ties already considered. The mother and chil dren must live, must have care and kindness for years 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 decenoy, 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 bnt ask for, yea, insist on, thiB double contract. Religion alone would answer the pur pose if it would enchain wandering desires and handcuff libertine rascality. But this religion alone cannot do, as snrely as law, with religion, can do it. The man who honestly means a re ligious contract, cannot refuse to woman tbe added assurance of the legal contract. If any man does not honestly mean what he promises to enchain and handcuff him is utterly and ab solutely necessary, if restraint of wrong doing, is anywhere a necessity. No other than a crimi nal can feel his contract with a woman as chains and slavery. What, then, Mr. Tilton, do yon mean by your declaration that yon will not let the law of the land hold you to a contraot which you wish to violate? If yon mean criminal outrage, yon will find the law of the land able to hold yon, or at least able to brand yon as a monster. In tho last issue of the Golden Age, yon ar gue the matter again. You say that “Love is l 0 ye—not liking, not friendliness, not kindness, not esteem, but love—and if a man has ceased to feol it for the woman who sits at the other end of his breakfast table, which i3 the most moral—or the 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 true life; or to wear his fet ters uncomplainingly, silently, but invoking meanwhile all the lightnings of heaven to do for Mm what he has not the courage to do for himself ?” If tMs were meant for the personage of a gay rake, justifying variety “at the head of his breakfast table, I conld understand it. Yon speak of the man only, as if the woman were not of mnch account in the matter. Yon seem to hold her cheaper than men of free lives com- tinonly hold a mistress. Her honor, wMch yon cannot give baok, her wifehood, which rests on her honor, her motherhood, wMch most con tinue none the less for yonr discretion, and to which you owe eternal fidelity, these you make of no account—she merely “sits at the head of your table,” and it is a question of leaving her tg sit there alone, or of driving her out into the world. And that you 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 rnled the breasts of rude cave-dwellers, who would have broken your head with a stone hatchet, and served yon right, if you had thus proposed to quit your marital obligations. You might easily be set down as half fool and half knave in this plea, If it were possible to see that in either character yon 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 murderous wish under snoh circumstances; and then you triumphantly ask whether it is better to murder tho woman or to put her away. Either may be better for the woman, but the question is what you are bound to do, not what is worst of tho crimes you say yon intend to choose between. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Rev. J. M.

DELXVEBED AT ATLANTA, TUESDAY, SEPT. 12, 1871. From the Atlanta Constitution.] R. B. Bollock, Governor, vs. J, W. Hancock et al. Forfeiture of recognizance, from Upson. LoAbane, O. J.—Where the pardon of the Governor was pleaded by the sureties in dis- charge of their bond for tho appearance of their principal, and the recital of facts 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 under the Constitution of 1868 the Governor may exercise the pardoning power before conviction, (see decision of tMs court in Dominick vs. Jailer, Spalding county, and 29 Mis. 300,) yet pardons before conviction are based upon tne Confession of Aba imputed f-uilt by the aconsed, and before such pardon takes effect it must be accepted by tbe accused, and when the plea of pardon by sureties fails to set up its acceptance by their prinoipal, evidenced by Ms application for the pardon and delivery to him or his acceptance of it when done, the pardon granted without the application of the prinoipal, and not evinced by his acceptance of ; t, is of no effect. Judgment affirmed. MoOay, J., concurring upon the grounds above stated. He is not decided as to the .legal ity of a pardon before conviction. Wabnee, J., concurring.—I concur in the judgment of affirmance in tMs 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 conviction 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, Bondnrant and Adams vs. W. A. Pat rick. Garnishment from Fulton. MoOay, J.—1. When a suit war brought in a justice’s court for an amonnt over fifty dollars and a summons of garnishment issned to a debtor of the defendant requiring him to appear and answer on tho 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 tbd magis trate to continue the proceeding against the garnishee, by formal entry on hi3 docket, to a subsequent day, not less remote than the num ber of days required by law for the service of the original summons against the defendant in the suit, and any judgment against the gar. nisheo, before the day to whioh the case is con tinued, is illegal. When a certiorari has been sanctioned bnt no notice, in writing, has been given to the op' posite party of tho satno 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 sueing on the same points that is sub stantially a waiver of the notice and an agree ment that the certiorari shall be deoided upon its merits. E. P. Howell for Scott, Bondnrant & Co. Hillyer & Bro., contra. Peck & Bomanvs. Connolly & Bro. Illegality, from Fulton. MoCay, J.—The 5th section of Act 28lb, 1870, which anthorizes a defendant in fi. fa. to deny under oath the plaintiff’s affidavit that the taxes due upon the debt have been paid, and provid ing that the issue thns made shall be returned and tried as other affidavits of illegality, stands npon the same footing as the first and second sections of the act, and i3 not nnconstitntional. Judgment reversed, Warner, J., dissenting. Collier & Hoyt, for plaintiffs in error. A. Hammond, & Son, contra. E. W. Monday vs. John G. Martin. Certio rari, from Fulton. . MoOay, J.—When there was a certiorari from the Connty Court which, under the Act of 1866, Code 297, is to be heard by the Judge of the Superior Court in vacation or in term, as shonld to Mm 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 directed the papers and tho traverse to be transmitted to tho next term of the Superior Court for trial: Held, That tMs was a judgment of the Judge; that the traverse should be tried by the jury, and that while that judgmentstands unreversed, it is error to dismiss the traverse and withdraw the case from tho jury, on the ground that the traverse wa3 not certified by the affidavit of the party making it. Judgment reversed. A. H. Colquitt vs. Mercer & deGraffenried. Plea to the jurisdiction, from DeKalb. McOay, J. —1. The Act of , 1869, author izing attorneys to make oath to setting np 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 tho jurisdiction may be filed at any time before the defendant has appeared and pleaded to tho merits, and if ho has filed a plea to the jnriBdiotion at the first term, which 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. Lochbane, C. J., concurring.—I have some doubt in this case as to tho ruling of the court construing the act of 1869. That act declares “that from and after tho passage of thjs act, in all ctoil cases founded on contract, Where there is nofissuable defense, and when the defendant does not reside in the county in which suit is pendmg, it shall and 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 without the verdict of a jury in all oivil cases founded on contract when an issnable 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 char acter of the issuable defense by limiting snch defense to be a defense to the merits. It strikes me that the limitation i3 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 a jury, just as if it says in eases where an issnable defense is filed tho conrt will not render judg ment without the intervention of a jury. The only question, therefore, is: Is a plea to the jurisdiction an issuable defense ? No donbt about its being so. If it is, the court cannot give judgment; and if it is, the Attorney may swear to it by tbe act of 1869, for the act is, when there is an issuable defense, the Attorney may swear to it. Bnt the construction placed npon the Consti tution is, that it means an issuable defense t* the contract—in other words, a plea to the »“ er ' its, and an attorney, by the act of 18p» ma 7 swear only to this “issuable defense' • It is not without donbt in my “Ut that the issnable defense contempt®® PjF_tne Con stitution is any issuable d»J ence » whioh when filed and verified, prove®* 8 ILe courts rendenng judgment, and the a»‘ of 1869 authorizes the verification by the attorney of an “issnable de fence.” That» plea to the 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 wMle a plea to the jurisdiction is an issnable defence, and while attorneys may verify issnable defense and have the same force as if done by the defendant in person, by the act of 1869; still, ss tMs conrt has decided it not to apply to cases of pTeas to jurisdiction, I ooncur in the judgment.
