Jlilledgeville, Oct. 28tb, 1365. 13 3t To the Voters of the 20th Senatorial District. It ia conceded o» all sides, that Baldwin is entitled to the Senator in the approaching Legislature, Hancock and Washington having each in turn been honored with the choice. At the instance of many friends, I authorized my name to be announced as a can didate. In the same issue of the Mil- ledgeville press which contains the announcement, I find a call for a County Convention ou Saturday next, confessedly made by the friends of Capt. Lewis H. Kenan, a galiant and meritorious gentleman, who is alsa in the field. It is deemed quite certain no other candidates will present them selves. I at once agreed to go into and abide th« nomination, provided that by joint and public notice, a reg ular ballot for two or three hours be had upon the day, as in case of reg ular elections. This would allow all the citizens to vote at leisure, and ! avoid the strife and confusion incident to mere chance meetings of the peo* pie. This proposal was declined as violative of usage, which may be true; but it was certainly fair. I also pro posed and urged to determine this matter of County preference by the vote at the regular election of the 15th inst. Or in other words, I pro posed that even if I were elected by the aggregate vote of the District, and defeated in Baldwin county, I would instantly resign, provided my competitor would do the same, under like circumstances. This would allow full time, lacking one day, for a new 0, R city Ki.ection.-A. many of .ur citi- election before the meeting of the f .

Pursuing and capturing a horse thi-f was new business to her, and she didn’t know how to manage it. Persons on the street heard her story as a matter of course, smiled and passed on. Now we do not say that everybody wbo beard it should have gone in search of the mule ; hut we, do say, that it is everybody's duty tj do a.\\ in their power to recover stolen pro- petty and capture the tbief. The united effort of the people to bring crime to punishment will pre vent crime, and it is the only thing that will. Let :i.e people be vigilant and assist each other, and ti,e noise thieves that infest the country will be detected and brought to justice. We would sug- g-st that it would be a good idea to put a few meies, at different places, where they could be suiiv stolen, and then watch for the thieves, who when caughi ought to be hung to the nearest tree: but, desperate as the case is. we are not yet [■'■pared to advocate Lynch Law; but if some- t-ngis not doue speedily to put a stop to this vaolseaale thieving the people will take the mat- t»r into their own hands. —i Candidates for Congress in the 4th District.—There are now but two candidates for ' ongress in the 4th Congressional District, so far i »s *»e can hear: Dr. A. J. Simmons of Monroe, j » r . JuJge Cabaniss, aho of Monroe. The voters! now in session, will settle, at least for the present, the principal questions which agitate the public mind. It only remains to re-adjust the entire civil machinery of the State to the new order of things. The task involves delicate and onerous responsibilities, and I can only promise, that if elect ed, I will devote most earnestly, what little of experience and ability I pos sess, to the early restoration of order and permanent civil government.

The ordinance was adopted. AN ORDINANCE To render null and void all debts of this State created for tha purpose of carry ing on the late war against the United States. Be it ordained by the people: of Georgia, in Convention Assembled, That all the debts contracted or incurred by the State of Georgia, either as a separate State, or a6 a member of the late partnership or con federacy of States, styled the Confeder ate States of America, for the purpose of carrying on the late war of secession against tha .United States of America, or AN ORDINANCE To prevent the levy and sale of the prop erty of debtors under execution, until the adjournment of the first session of the next Legislature or until the Legis lature shall otherwise, direct, if before that time. Be it ordained by the people of Georgia in Convention Assembled, That there shall be no levy or 6ale of property of defend ants in this State under execution, found ed ou any judgment, order or decree, ex cept executions for cost or rules against officeis for money, and except in cases where defendants resident within the State have absconded, are absconding, or about to remoVe their property without the lim its of any county in this State, until the adjournment of the first session of the next Legislature, or until the Legislature shall otherwise direct, if before that time.

Whereas, Many portions of this State are unprotected by the immediate pres ence of any of tho military forces of tho United States, aud there exists an uneasi ness in the public mind, under the appre hension that civil order may ke disturbed by evil-minded persons associating them selves together, or otherwise, for purposo of violence, and that the law may be obstructed in its execution, for want of adequate police force to enable the civil officers of the State to enforce the same : And Whereas, this feeling of insecurity tends greatly to retard the resumption and prosecution of the Various peaceful and in dustrial pursuits, of the people necessary for their prosperity and happiness ; there fore. Resolved, by the people of Georgia in Con vention Assembled, That bis Excellency, the Governor, be, and is hereby earnestly requested to provide, by proclamation to the people of Georgia, to be issued as early as practicable, for the formation, in every county in this State, of one or more militia or volunteer companies, to act as a police force to suppress violence, to pre serve order, and to aid the civil officers of this State in the enforcement of the laws thereof under such regulations consistent Be it ordained by the pr&ple of Georgia, in Convention Assembled, That the voters of those couuties of the State of Georgia, in which from the short notice given, elec tions for members of the General Assem bly cannot be held on the 15th inst, as provided by the Constitution, be and they are hereby authorized to hold said elec tions on Saturday the 25th inst, and that the members elected as aforesaid, be al lowed to take their seats at the earliest ! practicable day after the General Assent- j bly shall convene unde.r the same rules ! and regulations as if they were elected • on the day first aforesaid. And be it further ordained, That three j hundred copies of this ordinance be print ed for the use of the members of this Convention. Mr. Jenkins, of Richmond : Mr. Presi dent, I offer the following resolutions : Whereas, under the acts of the Congress of the United States, and the instructions of the Treasury department, the assessors for the State of Georgia are about to as sess a tax upon real estate, upon the valua tion of I860, and whereas, the value of that description of property now, when the assessment is about to be made, is much below that of the year 1S60, and will op erate injuriously upon the agricultural in terest of the State, now greatly depressed, therefore, * Resolved, 1. That a committee of five including the President of Ae Convention, as efiainnan, be appointed by the Presi dent, whose duty it shall be to memorial ize the lion. Hugh McCulloch, Secretary of the Treasury, requesting a suspension of the assessment until the meeting of the Congress of the United States, and that, if compatible with his sense of justice, he recommend such a modification of the in ternal revenue laws as will allow the as sessment for the tax of 1S64 to -be made upon the present value of real estate. 2. That said co umittee place the me morial, when prepared, in the hands of the Provisional Governor, with tho request that he forward it the Secretary of the Treasury, and give it the influence of his recommendation, if it comports with his sense of propriety. The resolutions were adopted. In view of the changed relations of the citizens of this State to the large number of persons recently held by them as slaves, but now recognized as freedmen, and of the imperative obligation resting upon the former to give efficient protection to the latter, and to promote among them the observance af law and older, habits of in dustry and moral improvement. 1.
