Mail Contracts.—We need not urge upon our readers the importance of the Proposals, from the Post Office Department, for carrying the mails iu Georgia from July 1st, ]366, to June 30th, IbG/. They will ba of more ipterest to the Pub lic just now. than anything else wecould publish. The Proposals take up much of our paper, but they will only be published for one month. We hope, now that the people cf Georgia have an opportunity to get their mail routes re-estab lished, they will lose no time iu putting in their proposals. Ej^*As tbo communication of Henry C.

Goon News.—In the Augusta Constitutional ist of Thursday we notice the following teiegi aph- ic dispatch: Washington. Oct 11.—Messrs. Alexander H. Stephens, of Ga., Geo. A. Trenholm, of S C., Judge Campbell, of Ala., and Ex, Gov. Clark, of Miss., having applied to the President for pardon, he has ordered that they be released from close custody on their respective paroles to appear at such time and place as the President may desig nate to answer any charges he may direct to be preferred against them, and that they remain in their respective States until further orders. Elections jn Ono and Pennsylvania.— Elections for State officers were held iu these States, on the 10th inst.

Editors: I noticed your comments in youj paper upon the publications in the LaGrange* Report er and Columbus Enquirer, wjiose Ed itors seeing the popular feeling in fa vor of Gov. Brown’s election as our next Governor, seem in trouble, as they have been for the last eight years. You express your preference for Gov. Brown over all other cnafi- dates if he will run. i feel quite well satisfied you only express the general ft^lings of the people of the State, with the exception of a few old political opponents of the Gover nor, who always have, and always will oppose him. These men are always 241, W. 54TH STREET, ) New York, Oct. a, 1'8G5. j To the People of the State of Georgia: The grave interests in both the pres ent and for the future depending upon the action of our Convention, soon to meet and my opportunities for ob servation and acquiring information of Northern political sentiment during my visit in Washington and this City, are my apologies for addressing you in the hope of contributing something to public sentiment in Georgia that may result in beuefit to our future prospects. The political field in the'States term ed loyal, is somewhat confused. Both parties, the Republican and the Dem ocratic, profess to support the Presi dent and his policy for re-construction. Neither, however, has yet declared in detail the precise points of agreement (with, or difference from his views.— The resolutions of political Conven tions can only speak in general terms. And it will not be until the States called disloyal shall apply for admis sion to Congress, that the differences Jexisting between the parties will be come clearly manifest, and the Nation be again re-formed into two great po litical divisions seeking, each, to influ ence the Country and control the Government. Until admitted to Con gress, we can have no part in the con test, but must be content to remain interested but powerless spectators. We shall not be permitted to take part in any measures proposed, of whatev er character they may be, affecting our interests political or material, but as the weaker party must accept, whether we like it or not, the legisla tion of the loyal States. This is our position. The result of the appeal to arms. And we cannot escape from it except by complying with the terms of the victor. These terms, in general, are the a- ready to lay aside all party when it will put them iu office, but they will 1 doption of a Republican form of Gov- draw the lines to keep their oppo- er nment, and the abolition of slavery, nents out.

It is very evident front this, tliat L )am , „„ 0(1 rMS0nSi w |, y they the people of Mississippi did not send found in the last condition, and arises from the different views held of the meaning of the term “Abolition of sla very.” One party assert, that Na tional Constitutional demand is satis fied by introducing into the State- Constitutions a prohibitory clause ol a slavery or involuntary servitude, ex- agam require the services of ' • .. i- ■ , • * 1 icepr on conviction ot crime, leaving Governor for them, The people of Geor- " rovvn : j to the States, as a sovereign attribute, gia have chosen delegates to a State Con-1 lst - He lias had nearly eight years j the privilege of determining the legal vention for a specific purpose, and have I experience in the office, and we need; and political rights of the negroes reserved to themselves the privilege of j experience until we get the State re-1 emancipated by the Act ot War. The cboosiug their Governor, and their Con gressmen. We predict that, if the Con densates to the convention to select a liould of the negro as a fact, and in conse quence, to concede icu/h that fact every privilege necessary to make that freedom a reality awl not an empty name. This the people of the loyal States, even the 'most liberal, will require, and will be content with nothing less. And if the requirement is fairly and justly, met the Radicals can offer no tenable grounds of opposition to our admis sion into the Union. The Conven tions of the States that have already met have not, so far reported, come up to this requirement. One, it is said, has denied the negro the most common of legal rights—that of giv ing testimoney in Courts of justice.— The others have postponed to Legisla tive action tha.t which should have been, under the circumstances, a Con stitutional guarantee, and so, have sat isfied the people of the loyal States that the white men of the South in tended, and would do the freedmen full justice. My impressions are, from all I learn, that pone of these States will be admitted to Congress-for a long time. Perhaps not during the com ing session. Shall Georgia commit the same error ? Or will she main tain the superiority assigned to her, and deal in her Convention with the legal rights that are essential to their freedom ? They were good slaves. Shall we now make them bad freemen? Deny to them that which they may justly claim, and the confidence be tween the Southern white men and the negro is destroyed. Assure him and his assumed friends on the con trary, that you will deal fairly with him, and the old relations of trust may be re-established. I urge this meas ure upon you because I see the politi cal trickery fhat is being prepared to keep the Southern States out of Con gress. The other Southern States have laid themselves, so far, open to opposition. I wish to save. Georgia from similar injury, and that she shall really occupy that position of pro gress and development in the front rank of the Southern States that is accorded to her by the North. “In War, Enemies! In peace, Friends!” is the acknowledged Law of Nations- Ami now that war is over and peace again smiling upon us, I would culti vate with the other States those social and political relations that will ensure our progress and development in the new channel opened to us. Neither sectional interests nor sectional poli tics can avail us. The United States TBS STATS ooirvBirfciow .memrcrs KLRCTKI). * OFFICIAL. Appling—D G. Hopps, F r>on„i Bik-r—W. D.

Why, the question was submitted to the people of that State, about two weeks ago, whether negroes should be allow ed to vote, and Connecticut, by a large majority, says NO ! Now, you Connecticut men who ask Georgia to let niggers vote, just ‘‘dry up.'' “The Firnt ulinl! be I.aat.'’ Ar. We live in strange times, and tact is often stran ger than fiction. Who would have thought, eight months ago, that the States of Mississippi, Ala bama and South Carolina, would be living in quiet tinder the National banner of the Union, while Kentucky and Tennessee would be torn by- discord and dissension ? Vet it is even so. Ken tucky, we believe, still claims to be a slaveholding State, and her citizens and the Military are con stantly at variance in regard to the control of the with the President than any cue in the city except the members of the Cabinet.

It is be lieved that no other man in the State could have the same influence in get- This seems to be the plain state of the case divested of all partisan sub tleties. What then is it incumbent upon us to do ? Sullen indifference will not help us. On the contrary, it will but continue military oppression, and total ruin, ultimately, of proper perty and of ourselves.

We must spare no reasonable efforts to re sume our place as ‘one of the United States; to re-establish civil law throught our limits, and to free our selves from all military abitrary con- people. All candid men will admit that Gov. Brown will do this if he takes hold of it; but we do not know that any new man will do this.

The measure of concession can be fairly weighed and determined. And this done, and granted by us, who can op pose the Senators and Representatives of Georgia when seeking to enter the Halls of Congress? Neither party iu the ioyul States construes the term “abolition of slavery” actulately.— Both are in extreme. The truth lies between. To simply declare the ne gro free is not enough. To graut him, untutored and simple as he is at pres ent, all the rights of the white free man is too much. That measure ol concession only is justifiable, which being compatible with his intellectual and moral condition, will guarantee to him the legal recognition and privi leges of a freeman so far as may be necessary to secure his life, liberty, and bis property. Certainly no right minded man would grant less. No ra tional emancipationist could ask for more. This much for the present, leaving to the future to develope more of privilege as the negro may ascend in the scale of intellectuality and mor ality- What then is necessary for us to do, is to declare m our Convention formally, or in such other manner as will satisfy the loyal States, that the freed man shall enjoy the rights of sue- ing and of being sued, ot being im pleaded, and of giving testimony in Courts of justice, leaving to subse quent legislative power the extension of their privileges. What objection is there to the freedman sueing or bo being sued, or of impleaded ? What reasonable objectiou can there betolj 11 ^ admittingthe freedman as a witness in' ie Courts of justice? Testimony is noth ing but a mere matter of evidence to be weighed aud sifted by the Judges and as one, we must sink or swim to gether, diffeiing only as to the best means of securing one common object, National Security and prosperity. I shall return to Georgia in a few days, to share with you the future that may be in store for us, as we have shared together the troubles and anx ieties of the past five years; and to contribute all in my power to the de velopment of our internal improve ments and resources.
