and Gulf Railroads, for their kindness and
liberality in passing all the delegates and

of those railroads who have so generously
and patriotically passed recruits to the army
over their roads, free of charge, or for a
mere nominal sum. Such acts of patriotism
extended to those who make a voluntary
tender of their services and offering of their
lives, if necessary, in defence of an insulted,
injured and oppressed people, should have
a place in the history of the country, as well
as to entitle such companies to the confi
dence and support of a generous people.
Resolved, That the Presidents, Directors,
and Superintendents of said Railroads, to
gether with the Mayor and Aldermen of the
city of Savannah, be and they are hereby
invited to seats in this Convention, when
not in secret session.
Resolved, That the Secretary give notice
of these resolutions to the Presidents of
said roads and the Mayor of the city'.
The President presented a telegram from
Hon. Howell Cobb, President of the Pro
visional Congress, announcing that •.
rte<.t copy or tne l'ermanent Constitution ot
the Confedrate States had been forwarded
to the Convention.
Mr. Reese, of Morgan, offered the follow
ing, and the rules were suspended and the
resolution adopted :
Resolved, That the Committee on Print
ing he and they are hereby instructed to se
cure an authentic copy of the Permanent
Constitution adopted at Montgomery, wheu
it shall be received by the President of this
Convention, to have five hundred copies of
the same printed for the use of the Conven
tion.
The President, then stated that, the ques
tion before the House was on the motion of
Mr. Johnson, of Hall, to lay all matters in
relation to the question of reduction on the
table, on which motion a vote was had and
it was lost by a decided majority.
The question then recurred on Mr. Clark’s
substitute for Mr. Garvin’s substitute for
the first section of the original report of
the Committee.
Messrs. Varnadoe, of Liberty, and Rob
inson, of Macon, favored the adoption of
Mr. Garvin’s substitute.
Mr. Reynolds, of Newton, of the commit
tee who made the report, fovored the com
mittee’s report.
Mr. Garvin followed in advocacy of his
plan.
[Considerable debate ensued of a parlia
mentary character, and several motions were
made, which the crowded state ot our col
umns obliges us to omit.J
Mr. Clark, Mr. Styles, and Mr. Bartow,
made brief but forcible speeches in favor ot
the measure, taking the ground that while
a reduction of the Senate was desirable, it
would not be proper for this Convention to
change the basis of Legislative representa
tion. Mr. Bartow was in favor of reducing
the number of Senators to fourty-four, but
he was unwilling to disturb the House.
After remarks from Tidwell, Mr. Hall,
and others, the question was called for, when
the ayes and nays were demanded. The
vote stood 162 ayes and 103 nays.
After several motions, which were not
entertained, Mr. Styles offered the following
resolution:
Resolved, That the substitute just adopted
by the Convention, be referred to a commit
tee of sixteen, two from each Congressional
district, to arrange the Senatorial districts
and report an Ordinance in accordance
therewith.
On motion, the resolution was amended
so as to make the committee twenty-four,
three from each district, when it was adopt
ed.
The President appointed the following
committee:
Mr. Roddey—Chairman—from the 3d
District.
Ist District—Messrs. Varnadoe, Gaulden
and Yopp.
2d District —Messrs. Clark, Furlow and
Dozier.
3d District —Messrs. and Lamar.
4th District—Messrs. Tidwell, Hoyle and
Beasley.
sth District—Messrs. Shropshire, of
Floyd; Chastain and Dabney.
6th District —Messrs. Hull, Martin, of
Lumpkin; and McDaniel.
7th District—Messrs. Bliscoe, Reese and
Fitzpatrick,
Bth District —Messrs. Singleton, Neal, of
Columbia; and Johnson, of Oglethorpe.
Mr. Styles moved to lay all propositions,
&c., now before the Convention in reference
to a reduction of the House of Representa
tives, on the table. The motion was lost.
A Scotch parson in the Rmnp time said
in his prayer, “Laird, bless the grand coun
cil, the parliament, and grant that they may
all hang together.” A country fellow said
“Amen,” very londly, adding, “I’m sure it
is the prayer of all good people.” “Friend,”
said the minister, “I don’t mean as that fel
low means. My prayer is that they may all
hang together in accord and eoueowl.” “No
matter what qord,” replied the- other, “so
that it b* but one.”
fir. Crittenden’a Farewell Speech.
The following is the latter portion of Mr
Crittenden’s farewell speech, delivered in
the United States Senate, ou Sunday night,
March 3d:
Now, in regard to the South and the bor
der States, I would have them trust to the
Union and to the people. The North has
given assurances of their sympathy for them,
and justice will be done. I believe it.—
There are assurances given of kindness and
patriotism that will he redeemed; that sym
pathy and kindness which exists in the
north will attract others to it; its standard
of Liberty and Justice will be raised from
one end of the eouutry to the other, and the
people will crowd around it until States
shall come and make peace offerings to their
brethren. That day will come, ami it will
be a happy day. 1 believe this, and I would
have the South and the border States be
lieve it. Our northern fellow-citizens have
entitled themselves to confidence by their
action upon these very resolutions ; thous
ands and tens of thousands have come here
with petitions in their lavor ; States have
petitioned for them; and in all this I recog
nize a spirit of kindness which should bind
the hearts of Southern men. I will say I
am for the Union ; I am not for secession.
No, sir. And as to my native State, I will
say to her, more thau to others, I desire you
tostind by the Union of the country. Do
not go off unless an imperious necessity
forces you. You have given to the world
long continued evidences of your consisten
cy, your patriotism, and your fidelity to the
Union. Stand by it. You have stood there
heretofore; why not now ? You have lit
erally founded your State upon a rock.—
Yes, sir, upon a rock that State is founded,
and you have engraven on a rock your testi
mony to the Union. The stone you sent to
be a portion of the monument to Washing
ton bore upon its Kentucky marble front
these words: “Kentucky was the first to
enter the Union after the adoption of the
Constitution ; she will be the last to leave
it.” That sentiment she has engraved upon
marble, and it now- stands sanctified still
more by forming a portion of the monument
to George Washington. 1 want to see her
true to that great and noble sentiment. It
swells the heart within me. There is noth
ing, it seetns to me, in all the hope of tri
umph—nothing of the manly and heart
swelling character of the feelings which this
noble and patriotic sentirueut ealled forth !
Let her stand there with us; aud stand by
those sentiments- Let her bo the last to
leave the Union -which is covered with so
much glory, so much of triumph and so
much of blessing. This is the only govern
ment on earth under which man eau control
his action, can speak his own thoughts, and
where no man is imprisoned unlawfully
from one end to the other—from San Fran
cisco to Portland. W hat if our treasure is
empty, and our money spent, and our gov
ernment badly administered? Still, with
all these faults, it is the best government in
the world. It is here only, in the arms of
tins great and mighty Rnfpire, that Liberty
was presented to the world, in all her might
and all her glory, and all her usefulness.
In the little Republics in the Alpine hills
of Europe, wjiose little territories are too
small to attract the ambition or cupidity of
imperial power, there Liberty is kept as a
thing to be looked at and petted ; but here
she stands in all her majesty and might,
with her arms stretching across a continent.
Who does not love this great country, with
its mighty benefits to every citizen ? The
name of his country gees before him like a
host, and is a shield over him. The very
name contains a charm and a spell which
attaches to him in every region of the world ;
and its greatness and blessing is magnified
still more every day. I say I hope Ken
tucky will stand for the Union. Try it, and
try it again! If one Congress does not
judge rightly and does not act rightly, an
other will; it is a principle of our Govern
ment that these frequent changes will give
us justice, and every State in the Union
should exercise patieaee amd forbearance. —
Let us wait; and when, if it be our sad fate,
rebellion and revolution shall have passed
over the whole land, I want to see old Ken
tucky standing up, even in that day of disso
lution—standing up with unabated strength
and with the Hag of our Union in her hand
—standing upon her conquered fields like
the last soldier of a brave and gallaut band ; j
and then, when the Union is no more, and
she stands the image of patriotism, honor,
heroism and fidelity to the Union to the last,
then and not till then, I would have her’
cousider what next is to be done for herself.
My principle is, take care of the Union ;
compromise—do anything for it. It is the
Palladium of Government. Take care of it, j
and it will take care of you.
Mr. President, I have occupied more of
your time than I intended. lam about to
part from all my frieuds here, whom I shall
be sorry to leave. If I have offended or
grieved the heart of any man, I never so
intended. I have spoken what in soberness,
and truth, I believe, and what to some ex
tent, coming from the region which I do, I
may say I know as a fact. I have endeav
ored to give you warning, but not to threat
en. I have long ago learned not to threaten.
I may warn, it is one of the duties of broth
erhood, it is one of thb duties of my place
in the Senate to warn you of any danger I
see approaching our commou country. I
have endeavored to do so. To-morrow, after
to-morrow, and each succeeding to-morrow,
brings with it new fears and new apprebeu
sioi#. To my mind, rebellion and revolu
tion seem to be epidemic in the land, and
some remedy must be devised.
Mr. Crittenden closed with an appeal to
the Senate to pass some measure, not of com
promise, but of policy, which should bring
peace to the country and allow the sunshine
onee more t 9 break through the clouds, and
make us once again the brethren of one
common family.
A Paper Blockade. —The New York
Herald says:
It appears, according to our advices from
the National Capital, that Lord Lyons, the
British Minister, has notified the Govern
ment at Washington that his Government
will not recognize merely a proclamation of
the blockade of the Southern ports on the
part of Mr. Lincoln’s administration, but
that a blockade, to be considered such, must
be effectual. It is stated, too, that the
French Government, also, will give similar
official notification, and that this course will
probably be followed by all the leading
European powers having commercial ittter

VOLUME XXXVIII.—NO. 52.
Arrival of Ex-i'midcui iiaGmuau
at llume—ML iitHiepiion.
Ex-Presuleut Buchanan left Baltimore
Wednesday, escorted to the depot by the
City Guard, and arrived at Lancaster, Pa.,
that afternoon. The arrival of the train
was greeted with a salute-of thirty-four guns
and the ringing of bells. Tho Mayor, City
Couneil, military, firemen, and a large con
course of citizens welcomed the ex-President.
To an address of welcome hy the Mayor,
Mr. Buchanan replied as foliows :
My old neighbors, friends, aud fellow-cit
izens—l have not language to express the
feelings which swell in my heart on this
occasion ; but I do most cordially thank yoii
for this demonstration of your personal kind
ness to an old mau, who comes back to vou
ere long to lay his hones at rest with your
fathers. And here let me say, that having
visited almost every clime under the sun,
my heart has ever turned to Lancaster as the
spot where I would wish to live, and die,
and be buried. AN hen yet a young man fiz
far remote Russia, my heart was still with
your fathers, my frieuds and neighbors, iu
good old Laucastei. (Applause.) And al
though I have always been true to you, I
have not been half so true to you as you
have been to me. Your fathers took me up
when a young man, and fostered and cher
ished me through many long years. All
these have passed away, and I stand before
you to-day as a man living iu a second gen
eration
A voice—l saw you mount your horse
when you marched to Baltimore, in 1812.
I feol with all my heart, though in the
midst of posterity, that these sons are man
ifesting the same kiudness which your fath
ers would have done had they lived to this
day. Generations of martial men rise and
sink, and are forgotten, but the kiudness of
the past generation to me, now so conspicu
ous in their sons, can never be forgotten. —
I come home, fellow citizens, to pass the
remainder of my days among you as a good
citizen, a faithful friend, as a benefactor of
the widows and fatherless. (Loud applause.)
All political aspirations have departed.—
All that I have done during a somewhat pru
t-acted life has passed into history and if
I have done aught to offend a single citizen,
I now sinerely ask his pardon.
May God grant that this Union and Con
stitution may be perpetual. (Applause.) —
I close by repeating the sentiment dear to
my heart : God grant that the C onst itutioa
and the Union may be perpetual, and con
tinue a shield of protection to ourselves hnd
our children forever.
Mr. Bucbauan retired amid enthusiastic
applause. He then resumed his place in the
carriage and was escorted to Wheatland.
Reciprocal Trade.
Under tho commercial head of the St.
Louis Christian Advocate, we find the fol
lowing practical and suggestive remarks:
So far the demand for corn for Southern
consumption.shows but little, if any, abate
ment. Orders are constantly pouring in,
and it really* seems probable ’ :
mense yield of last fall will
corresponding requirement from our friends
in the low country. The same is true of
provisions. The Levee of St. Louis is, at
present,.the best exponent of the conserva
tive influences of commerce. It is refresh
ing to pay a visit there, and learn the prac
tical lessons it teaches of political sympathy
and union. As much as one species of
labor or another may be theoretically dis
carded or impugned, all autagonism is dis
armed and the products of opposite sections,
for each supplies the other with its necessi
ties or luxuries in the most friendly, as well
as mutually', profitable manner.
The free labor of the North is sending
down the river an immense surplus of corn
and provisions, which, without such an out
let or demand, would rot in the fieid, or
waste itself in storage charges. The grain,
pork and bacon permeates the whole South
—every plantation and town on the banks
of tho river receives a portion from the de
scending boats, while the railroads are over
run with freight fur the interior. On the
same levee, the corn piles surround hogs
heads of sugar, and barrels of molasses, aud
tierces of rice. These are shipped on orders
to the farms and cities of the Upper Missis
sippi, Illinois and Missouri, and by rail to
the thousand settlements and villages in tho
woodlands and prairies of the country. —
And thus from yea- to year goes on— has
gone on—a mutual interchange of commod
ities, to the great comfort, convenience aud
prosperity of ali concerned. It is strange
that a practice like this should be marred
by theoretical abstractions of no real value
or importance.
Position of Virginia —The Richmond
Whig discusses the Peace Conference plan,
considers that it is sufficient for all oh utial
purposes, and adds :
“ It is clear that those who shall refu-i to
accept this settlement are opposed to ac
cepting any settlement, tbe>r object tuing
a thorough and permanent dLruptkn of he
Union, to be followed, ns it inevitably would
be, by all the calamities, horrors and dos< L
tions of a civil, social and servile war. The
people of Virginia and of the Border States
have the political agitators and destructives
‘on the hip,’ and let them be admonished by
the bitter memories of the past not to com
mit their destinies into such hands again
We believe, too, that the people rs nearly
every Northern State, the moment an oppor
tunity ia allowed thorn, will ‘crush out,’ the
Rotating politicians th re, and vote over
whelmingly- for the adoption of the Peace
Conference settlement, and Gius inaugurate
a reign and peace and good will between the
sections that will last for many generations.
“Iu conclusion, we again invite the peo
ple of Virginia to examine the Peace Con
ference settlement, candidly and impartially,
aud then say whether it is not eminently
worthy of their endorsement and acceptance.
In our judgment if it were submitted to a vote
of the people at the polls, it would be
adopted by a majority of not less than sev
enty-five thousand!”
