of the Const. &. Republic. j
Milledgeville, Nov. 8, 1853.
Kditor : According to promise lam here
'4 post, ready to furnish your readers with
* * - formation, of events passing at this focus
* affairs, as, I hope, will prove inter
*7 <r to them. The crowd in attendance is
* ,’aiiy large. As usual, the applicants for
• ogees form a large portion of the assem
* jf but ere the close of the week a majority
7 ae m will probably disperse for their respec
♦irt botnes.
r e House was called to order, yesterday mor
, l,v Thadeus Sturgis, the last Clerk, Dr.
; ’ 0 f Habersham, in the Chair. After the
! •’ of the members, the House, on mo
, nroC ee<ied to the election of their Speaker.
T vote stood on the first ballot, Ward, 62;
» 45: McDougald. 20. No one having ob-
J a m/'-rity of the whole, the House went
. , a second ballot, which resulted in the elec
-7," of Mr. Ward, the vote being for Ward, 103;
VcDougaid, 23. Mr- Ward, on taking the Chair,
„*1 faisthanks to the House for the honor
-nferred, in a neat and appropriate address.—
"■iefine talents, leady tact and urbane manners
. wntleman. will make him a popular pre
jHiug officer.
fae House succeeded in electing their Clerk
the first ballot, by the lollowing vote: Wm.
1 Wofford, 86; Harrison, 37; Lawson, 9. Jesse
OsliD, the former Messenger, was re-elected. —
ifteran unsuccessful attempt to elect a Door
teeper, f be House, on motion, took a recess un
. three o’clock. The whole afternoon was oc
fopied by the House in balloting for a Door
iteper—the final result was in favor of a Mr.
Powell.
Luther J. Glenn, Secretary of the last Senate,
a 'ti that branch of the General Assembly
to order. For the purpose of organizing, Mr.
Dunnagan,of Hall, was called to the Chair.—
Toe election for President created some excite
ment ifom the fact, that it was rumored on
t oday night, that Mr. Miller would probably
receive sufficient Democratic support to elect
tin. But Madame Rumor, as is frequently the
ose.was in error. The Democracy was firmly
total, ami the vote stood ori the first ballot,
JoanD.Stell, of Fayette, 51; Andrew J. Mil
ls:, of Richmond, 45; Mr. Stell was, therefore,
soared duly elected. It was a well merited
rsipliment to an old and faithful servant in the
iknocratic cause. Mr. Stell made a short but
pointed address on taking the Chair. There
foil four baNots for Secretary, the results of
raich I send you. First ballot, Pringle, 19;
hood. 16; Moore, 16; Perrot, (w.) 45. Second
kiiot, Pringle, 22; Hood, 21; Moore, 24; Perrot,
c 3scattering. Mr. PerroUs name was then
i.'udiawn, and the third ballot resulted: Prin-
V- Hood, 27; Moore, 41. On the fourth
kiiot Mr. Moore, ol Sumpter, was elected, the
rote standing. Moore, 49; Hood, 19; Pringle, 26.
Previous to the ballotting for Secretary, a spicy
.catesprung up between Senator Sturgis, ot
Siuscogee, and Senator Cone, of Bullock. The
armer rose, be said, to offer a resolution, that be
srethe Senate went into an election for Secre
cy, the number of appointments under that
tcershould be limited to an Assistant Secreta
: ‘wo Engrossing Clerks, two Enrolling Clerks
-iaUerk to engross the journal. The Sena*
itlrom Bullock remarked that the number of
was already so limited by law,
'“‘hat the adoption of the resolution would be
!Jre 'y superfluous. Up jumped the Senator
raMuscogee again in defence of his measure,
a wanted the Secretary to receive special in
'Mtions upon the subject. That it was usu-
■ :ae case < he continued, that an unnecessary
toLer of these subordinate officers were ap-
Nted; it was a wasteful expenditure of the
F“hic money, and a check ought to be put to it.
from Bullock probably had some-
J tanging tc his skirts, and this would ex- '
pain his opposition to the resolution. He (Mr. !
understood how these things were
w ° : aed; he had pulled the wires. Mr. Cone re
itiat he hoped every Senator’s skirts were
6 Cear u P on this score as his own. He had ;
•-•tr had a son here as clerk, who had appoint- •
'Mrty subordinates, nor had he been on to |
“■'iigton to get a share of the public money.
- -ought the subject ought to be left to the fu
-scussion of the Senate. The Senator
41 Muscogee rose again. He wanted the
? et tieman to have the last word, but a personal
ation was what he desired to make. Mr.
4 something about his son appoint
;»subordinates. No, cried out Mr. Cone,
Ms- Sturgis continued, the gentle
"a’s a ‘ he did not say so, but I know’ that
L ’ “ fe a d had an opportunity of seeing the
** °i ibis thing and he wanted an end put to

J ug watching the Treasury, but winking at
J'w.ents that w’ould bring some of the funds j
&is pockets. It be had been to Washington i
uone the State good service,
buring the discussion, Senator Clark, of Ba- j
‘■ r -offered an amendment, which was accepted i
l' r ' Sturgis to the resolution; that the num- i
hereafter be increased if the Senate ;
4 it necessary. The resolution was 1
c submitted to the Senate, but lost by a t’e- !
vote.
‘‘ tr the election of Secretary, the Senate
to the election of a Messenger. Alter
. ballots they succeeded in electing a Mr. ;
.Like the House, the Senate then took !
5 three o’clock. The afternoon was j
Cu P*ed also by thisAody in balloting for a
°°f-Keeper. A Mr. Wansley, was the suc
man.

John W. Underwood and Judge J. H. Stark are
also named.
For the vacancy created by the resignation of
Judge Warner, and now ably filled by Judge
Starnes, I hear of but one competitor. This is
the Hon. M". J. Wellborn. Judge Starnes will,
however, in all probability, be elected.

SPECTACLES.
XF YOU will and must wear SPECTACLES, get
them exactly suited to the eye, or they will do
more harm than good. THE OPTOMETER is an
instrument invented by Prof. Stampfer, of the
Polytechnical School of Vienna, for the purpose of
measuring with scientific exactness the degree of
convexity the eye had lost by age, and it applies
accurate numbers of glasses to counteract the de
fect. None, then, need hereafter complain that
their spectacles pain their eyes, who call on us to
be fitted with Spectacles. Come and see for your
selves. Now, though we have taken much pains to
obtain this instrument, as well to inform ourselves
with reference to the application of Glasses to
remedy the defects of vision, we take pleasure in
informing our patrons and the public, that we have
become sole agents of Messrs. Ball <fc Co., for the
sale of their recently invented Cups, which render
spectacles entirely useless, oven to the most Aged
persons, where eyes have lost their convexity from
ago We append, in favor of this invention, the
following letter from Prof. Finney, of Obcrlin Col
lege. -
The fact in regard to the improvement in my
sight by the use of your Cups are these :
I was wearing GLASSES of 18 inches focus—l
have had them changed twice; and am now wri
ting in a bad light with glasses of 48 inches focus,
which is' 1 the lowest magnifying power used by
Messrs. Pike. I can now read common print with
ease with the lowest magnifying glasses. I have
used them agreeably to your directions about four
weeks. I see not why I may not expect, in a short
time, to have my sight quite restored by continu
ing the use of the cups I cannot but regard this
discovery as of great value. Yours, truly,
(Signed) C. G. Finnet.
P. S. lamin my sixtieth year, and have worn
glasses about ten years.
| Feb’y. 7, 1853.—Prof. Finney writes—l have,
: ror the last six or eight months, used them (the
Cups) but seldom. The improved state of my
sight, rendering me forgetful and neglectful of their
steady use. I have received much benefit and no
! perceptible injury whatever from their use.
1\ ith my blinds open I read comfortably, and
| write easily without glasses.

I.V offering the services of the steamer FASHION,
(the first boat of this line) to the merchants of
Georgia and Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee,
we would ask for her that patronage which her
construction and light draught of water merits.
The Fashion is a home enterprise and owned ex
clusively by Capt T. N. Philpot flior commander)
and myself, whose entire attention will be given to
the interest of her patrons.
This boat was built in this city, and groat care
has boen taken in her construction to make her
worthy of the trade for which she is intended.
Her capacity is about 2000 bales Cotton, her
draught es water only 13 inches, which will enable
her at all seasons of the year, to deliver her freight
promptly.
Her entire cargo will be taken between decks,
which will not only prevent damage to goods in
case of snagging, but will add much to the condi
tion of packages discharged from hor. Mr. M. A.
Cohen is the agent of this line in Savannah, where
suitable wharves and warehouse have been provi
ded in a central situation for the reception of Cot
ton, Merchandize, Ac.
The Fashion will run in connection with the
New York and Philadelphia steamship, pelivering
goods at this point in five days from either of those
cities. JOHN A. MOORE.
