In this matter, I shall carefully co-op erate with the other departments of the govern ment in all measures intended to promote the publio good, aad .to '.restore confidence and quiet; and I respectfully solicit the aid of all good citizens in every portion of the State, without regard to party affinities, race or color, in support of the government in thi3 important work. Let us, by onr conduct, show to the world that we are still capable of self-govern ment, and that there is virtue, intelligence and integrity enough among our people to secure all the ends for which government is instituted and maintained. If we will take this course, we will relieve muohof the apprehension which exists at the present day, and will do much to restore confidence among onr people, and se cure immigration, the influx of capital, and the general development of the resources of the State, and will thereby remove all possible pre text for Federal interference of any character in onr local affairs. Tn every country where a wise system of pop ular education has been adopted, the results have been such as to demonstrate the wisdom, of the policy. Take, as an illustration, the king dom of Prussia, which was overrun and trampled under foot by Napoleon the Great. That then small, second-rate power, after the storm of revolution had swept over Europe, adopted the mo3t liberal and extensive system of popular education of any other power upon that conti nent. The edneation of the children of Prus sia was made compulsory. Parents were net permitted to bring them up in ignorance. In France, where the arts and sciences have been encouraged, and the higher branches of educa tion have been carried to an extent scarcely equaled by any other country, popular education has been greatly neglected, and the result has been that in a little over half a century the de jected and down-trodden kingdom of Prussia has risen to the magnitude of a first-class power, and has humbled the mighty empire of France at her feet. It is not neoessary for me to con sume time bv citing other instances. I presume that no intelligent man who has investigated this question can doubt that in the education of the masses rests the greatest security of our govern ment in the future, and the greatest power for the development of our vast resources. I can bnt commend the wisdom and fore thought of the late General Assembly in laying down as one fundamental provision of the sys tem in this State, that the different races shall be separate in the schools. It is ^for the in terest of either race that it should be so. While there should be equal justice done in the ffistri bntion of the publio funds for the education of the children of both races, our schools should bo separate and our colleges should be separate. STATE UNTVEESrrr AND AGBICULTUBAL COLLEGE. I cannot too strongly commend to the General Assembly the importance of a liberal endowment to onr State University. No ono who reads the history of the State, and the provisions on the subject incorporated into the earlier constitu tions, can doubt that it was the intention of our fathers to establish and maintain in Georgia a first class University; and it is a_ matter of deep regret that the people of Georgia nave so long failed to carry out, in all its munificence and magnitude, this grand scheme of those wise and great men who laid the foundations of our Government. Under onr present system it becomes a matter of necessity that we develop, to the highest extent, the minds of our sous o and daughters. We have - vast physical). flow the University liberally in the manner pro posed, it would then, in my judgment, be good polioy to turn over to the State Agricultural So ciety the land scrip which has been generously donated by the Congress of the United States, ana to permit said society, as the trustee of the State, to endow an agricultural college at Mill- 6dg6YiUo 9 with & branch at Dahlonega, where all that pertains to a practical agricultural edu cation may he obtained by the youth of our State. In this manner all oonflict upon this question will be reconciled, and all conflicting interests served in a manner that would tend to the future Rrowth and prosperity of the State. Before dismissing this subject, I would fur ther remark that justice demands an endowment of the Atlanta University for the colored popu lation of onr State, which will be sufficient to provide for all their wants at their present stage of advancement. By making reasonable pro vision for them, and building up their oollege in this State, wo forever settle the vexed ques tion, which would become a very troublesome one if they should seek admittance into the Uni versity of the State, and carry out the good un derstanding which has already been inaugurated between the two races—that not only their schools, bnt their colleges, are to be kept per petually separate and distinct from each other. the state debt. The reports of the Comptroller General and Treasurer will be laid before yon at an early upon the discharge of Executive Junctions, a have had no time to examine them carefully and prepare any comments upon them. They will, however, doubtless give you a correct statement of tho present indebtedness of the State. While I regret that our liabilities have been increased to the amount already reached, and would advise great caution upon this subjeet in the future, I cannot too strongly impress upon vou the convictions of my own mind as to the importance of maintaining the publio faith in violate. No State in the Unio _ B nion has maintained a higher or more unsullied character for integri ty and the faithful performance of her obliga tions in connection with all financial matters than onr own beloved Georgia. And whatever may be the burdens to which we are now sub ject, and whether wisely or unwisely incurred, we should meet them with that spirit of integri ty and honor which has always characterized the people of Georgia, and their representatives who have been onr predecessors, and which wilt I trust, alwajs continue to be a subject of just pride. Whatever may be our misfortunes, or onr depressed condition, let it never be said that the State of Georgia has violated her plighted faith or failed to regard as sacred and meet promptly, all b©* legal and moral obliga tions. . _ _ .

The Boston Post thinks enough of the Great Absqnatnlator to give him the following adver tisement : Governor Bullock has preferred speedy slaugh ter by his own act to the more painful fate, a living barbecue, in fact, which his Georgia ene mies have been preparing for him. His resig nation came none too soon. The Georgia Leg islature is hot for impeachment. The Attorney General has been instructed to commenoe a crim inal suit against the fugitive Governor for coin ing large amounts of State bonds without au thority of law, and that very ugly matter of tiie sale of the Stale railroad has also come up fox investigation. No wonder that Bullock wishes to “wash his hands of Georgia forever. It is only too evident that all his washing will not make them clean; and if that were his purpose he might with better effect have allowed him self to be put through the very effective wring ing machine which the Legislature is now pre paring. Such an array of rascalities as has been brought up against tbis loyal Governor of a re constructed State would suffice to drive any man either out of the country or into resignation. Bullock has chosen both. He will not viBit the scenes of his exploits in bonds and railroads, nor will he longer retain official connection with a peoplo that grumbles at being plundered.
