Sming pspatcf. AUGUSTA, GKO: W *-<l msday ErruliiiTt Xov. 10, 1858. Two Uoo«l Tilings Proposed In the Legislature. It gives os pleasore to find that mixed in with those who infest the halls of the Capitol, there are, at least, two men who propose to do something for the good of the State. We allude to Mr. Moors, of Clarke, in the House, and to Mr. Atkinso.v, of Camden, in the Senate. We shall rejoice to learn that a goodly number of the same class of men may he singled out from the crowd of statesmen now in Milledge ville- . . While all sorts of nonsensical and pernicious propositions are being made by Tom, Dick and Harry, theso two gentlemen mentioned, have each intro duced hills which are not intended to inure to the special benefit of any party, clique, faction, or clump of Treasury j suckers, hut to the good of modest j people. Jlr. Moors introduces a bill to regu late the disposal of free persons of color] in this State. This hill proposes that j all free persons of color who are in the Stateouthe Ist of January, shallchoose for themselves masters or he sold into slavery. I The principle involved in this hill is! a sound one. We do not quite approve | the details as set forth in the newspaper report ot proceedings, because we con- j ceive that, in some points, the funda mental principle is lost sight of. We take it to be the belief of Mr. Moore, as it certainly is the only doc | trine upon w hich slavery can he defend ed, that a negro has as much need of subjection to a master of a superior race, as a child lias of subjection to the pa rent. In other words that slavery as it exists in the States of the South, is the normal and only proper condition of the negro. It is certainly as wrong to repudiate one as another of the obliga tions of nature. It is as sinful to turn a negro out of the sphere in which God intended that he should exist as it would he to do the same thing to a white man. The negro has a right to be a slave, as much as a white man has a right to be his master. Every right implies an obligation ; the negro is as much under obligation to sustain and observe the relation of slave, as the white man is to sustain and observe the relation of master ; no more, no less. With this view of the principles in volved in the institution of slavery— and if these arc not the true principles on what grounds can slavery he said to be morally and divinely right ?—it fol lows, without need of intermediate ar gument, that an error—a sin, must have been committed whenever the free negroes of this State or their progenitors, were ejected from the con dition of slavery. Sin always brings retribution. In fact, human misery is always to he regarded as a result of wrong somewhere and at sometime com mitted. Is not the miserable condition of free negroes, wherever found, an evidence that there has been an error in their management? Are not the evils which they inflict upon society, proof that society has mismanaged them ? The proposition needs no argu mentation, that negroes have no busi ness without masters, and therefore we say that we do most cordially approve the step taken by the Representative from Clarke. He will deserve and will receive the thanks of the State for his move. But we cannot see that a con sistent regard for the principle upon which we approve his step, would allow us to endorse any feature in the bill which looks to the removal of a portion of the negroes to the free States. True, it would be but a merited punishment to the fanatics of those States, were our whole free negro population, as well as every negro convicted of a capital crime, thrust upon them. It is not im probable that the evil would, in the end, finds its true remedy in the reduc tion of the free negroes, by the superi or race, to their proper state of servi tude. There would only be the danger that the re action would he so sudden and great, as to end in the total de 1 struction of the inferior class. There ’ is no safety for the negro race, whether on this continent, or on the African, but in a well ordered state of slavery, which 1 is the only possible means by which each 1 race can benefit the other. But though the free States deserve no better treat ment at our hands, yet it should not be our policy to commit a wrong, or work 1 an injury to any community in the at tempt to do a righteous act. The re- 1 suit might he disastrous to ourselves.— If free negroes are a curse to our own society, they can certainly be none the less such to free society. To exasperate is never better than to conciliate, when conciliation will involve no sacrifice of principle. Our Northern brethren will never do morethan talk hugely, because we may lemove all our free negroes into slavery; but, if we send them within the borders of free States, the people among whom they should go, might and most probably would find the means of retaliation. Let right and nothing but .ight, be done in this mat ter. Mr. Moore’s position shows that , he intends to do right, and we would re - spectfully submit to him, if we be not right in opposing the idea of expelling our free negroes or any portion there of ? They have all had the protection of our laws, let them subserve the in terests of that society which has pro tected them, and ought to have lcent them slaves. 1 The bill offered by Mr. Atkinson, of Camden, to the Senate, is as follows’: Sec. I.—Be it enacted that so soon as this bill shall be passedby the General I Assembly, agreeable to the require ments of the constitution, all that part ► of the 11 tli section of the Constitution of this State, embraced in the follow - ing words—“ There shall be no future importation of slaves in this State from Africa or any foreign p ace as or the first day of October next, —be stricken - out, and shall hereafter form no part of e the Constitution of Georgia. Our views on the importation of slaves 1 from Africa, are known to our readers. . j We hold the repeal of all restriction up r|on the Slave Trade, to he the one only , j means by which the South can he re stored to a position of equality and in -1 dependence, or by which the genius of old fashioned republicanism can he . tempted to stay its departure from the , land. It sends a thrill of ecstasy through our hones, to hear that some man of known ability and worth has i pronounced himself in favor of the for eign Slave Trade. Already hundreds and thousands of the best men in the land sympathize with the project. We , have great and extensive charity for those who differ with us in this matter because they are unable to look at the ! matter as wc do, hut for the oragular ] condemnations of demagogues whom we have before mentioned, we are ena l hied every day, to feel a more and more 1 profound contempt. The day will yet come as we hope and trust, when those selfsame partisans will ask people to be lieve that they were early friends of the j Slave Trade movement. We will think : of them, tnen ns we think now of every j man who can sell the safety of his conn ! try for place. Mr. Atkinson will meet enemies and sophistries in every one of the de vil's manifold forms, but we will weep s with him and laugh with him,and pray 'for him, as long as lie gives battle in that cause; nor will a man who now has the hardihood to engage in that tight, ever enlist himself in a dishonor ; able strife. The passage of the two hills which we have alluded to would redeem to worthy fame the present Legislature. o — The Supreme Court. The question of abolishing or rc-or ' ganizing the Supreme Court, is likely 1 to engage the attention of the present 1 Legislature. As our position seems to have been misunderstood, on account of , our review of the decision of Judge Ben nlng in the bank case, some months ago, we deem it proper to state that we do not desire to see that tribunal abol ished, if it can he so re-organized as to secure more permanence and uniformity to its decisions ; if it can be located at a central point ; if the tenure of office can be made much longer, and the elec tion of Judges taken out of the hands of the people. But if it continues as it has been for the last eight or ten years, it will very soon lose all influence, and become entirely useless as a court of er rors. H. L. McClcxg, Esq., has been i elected Secretary and Treasurer of tiie I East Tennessee & Georgia Railroad Com pany, in place of Thomas J. Campbell, Esq., resigned. nr The Marion (Ala.) Commonwealth learns from Hon. A. B. Meek, that his History of Alabama is nearly ready for the press, and will he publilished this winter. Rear Fight. We are requested by Mr. Fred. Leh • man to state that he will fight his bear against any dog in Hie country, any day during the next week.— Cuthbert Reporter. We presume there is not a dog in the country fool enough to fight Mr. Leh man’s bear, unless instigated by some brutish biped, unworthy the name of man. Do the good people of Cuthbert countenance and sustain such amuse ments ? Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. State Fair at Columbia. American Hotel. ) Columbia, S. C., Nov. 8. 1858. j Dear Dispatch: —To-morrow is the first I day of the third Annual Fair of the S. j C. State Agricultural Society, and to | day and to night there has been a con- j stanttideof visitors pouring into this j city from all portions of this and the adjoining States. Contributions of qr ticies and stock for the Fair are abun dant, and the prospect is that a fine and beneficial exhibition will he given. There is a marked improvement over last year in the character of the arti cles offered, more especially in the fruit and vegetable departments. To morrow will be occupied mainly in making up the different examining Committees, | filling vacancies, &c. kc. On Wednes-1 day, 10th inst., the examination of Horses and Cattle will be made by the Committees, the several classes being introduced into the Ring in the order they occur in the Premium List, com mencing with Devons.

More anon. GUY. JUillcdgevllle Correspond dice. Milledoeville, Nov. 9,1858. The journal was read, witli Hon. W. 11. Brown in the Chair, the Hon. J. E. \ Ward not having as yet returned. Af ter the leading of the journal, with the | Hon. P, H. Colquitt, of Muscogee, in the Chair, the following bills were introdu j ced on the call of Counties, among oth | ers of no interest to your readers : j Mr. Barlett, a hill to make uniform the criminal practice in the State. Mr. Billups, a bill for the relief of Mr Dyer. Also a bill to make legal and valid all acts, as executor of Geo. Har ris, of Mississippi. Mr. Briscoe, a hill in regard to gar nishments and attachments. Mr. Browning, a bill to amend an act incorporating the Atlantic & Gulf Rail road, asking the purchase of iron by the State. Mr. Fambro, a hill to alter the prac tice in the Supreme Court. Also, a hill to define the liability of stockholders of joint stock companies. Also, a hill to abolish the Usury Laws in this State. Mr. Guerry, a bill to regulate judg ments in law, to protect Administrators and Executors from fraudulent claims. Mr. Hill of Sumpter, a hill to incor porate a bank in the city of Macon to be called the Cotton Planters Bank & Loan Association. The capital stock to be $5,000,000 with the privilege of extending to $10,000,000 if desired.— To commence operations when they have SOOO,OOO subscribed. This would indeed be a mammoth institution if it were not for several it's which perhaps for the good of the State stand in the way, tiie greatest of which is Governor Brown, who will perhaps give us anoth er bank bill veto message. I will post you up as to it’s progress. By the way this Legislature seems to he determin ed to do more and talk less than any of it’s predecessors have done in three months. Mr. Dawson, a hill to alter the laws in regard to mortgages in this State. Jlr. Paine, a bill to amend acts ex ; enipting certain property from levy and ! sale. Mr. Taine introduced this bill last ! year and it was lost. Tiie poor of the ’ country ought to thank this gentle man for his efforts in their behalf. Mr. Strickland, a bill to amend the : Penal Code of this State so as to make tiie crime of open Robbery punishable by death. Also a hill amending the Penal Code so as to make the crime of Burglary by night punishable with death. Mr. Whitaker, of Fulton to alter the 1 Law in regard to Scire Faceas. Jlr. Young of Union, a bill to autho rize the Governor to appoint a State Geologist. On motion the following gentlemen were added to the standing committees. Jlr. Drake to the Committe on the Blind Asylum. Jlr. Briscol on the Committee ! on the Penitentiary and Jlr. Mallard on i the Committee on the Lunatic Asylum. Third Reading of bills being in order j the following bills were read and acted upon. A hill to collect interest on open ac counts. Referred to Judiciary Commit tee. A bill to regulate tavern and retail licenses in this State. After a great deal of discussion and confusion, the bill was laid on the table for the present, after being amended by making its provisions refer to Elbert and Marion counties alone. Mr. Wilcoxon on motion was added to the Judiciary Committee. The Senate adjourned until 10 o’clock to-morrow morning. House. —The House met pursuant to adjournment, Mr. Speaker Underwood in the Chair. After reading the Journal of yester day, Jlr. Harrison, of Chatham, moved ; j a reconsideration of so much of the 1 j Journal of yesterday, as relates to the | ; rejection of tiie resolution appointing a j I committee of five, three from the House . | and two from the Senate, to select a site I ! for the future location of the Peniten- j j tiary, on the JVestern & Atlantic or ; I Georgia Railroad, which gave rise to a I j very interesting and exciting debate.— j The motion to reconsider was support-1 ed by Jlr. Harrison, Smith, of Towns, ] Col. Milledge, Jlr. Dcamond and Fin- ] ley and opposed by Mr. Hardeman and ■ Smith, of Coweta. Mr. Kenan said the committee had j settled in favor of removal and he did not understand why they desired fur ther information on the point, and in reply to Jlr. Hillyer, he wanted to see no party feeling invoked in the business of legislation. When he entered this Hall he came as a Georgian and not as a party man. He scorned such an at tempt. Jlr. Hillyer replied, that he was not responsible to the gentleman ! ’ from Baldwin for his positions on pub- j 1 lie measures, but to his constituents, < and reiterated what he had said before, ’ that the dominant party was responsi- ] ble to the public for the abuses of the , Government. Mr. Smith said Georgia had had the 1 benefit of the counsels of some of her I most distinguished men, in favor of re- i moving that institution to the moun- , tain regions of Georgia, where the la bor of convicts might be made profita ble in developing “the iron, granite and lime of that region of the State, instead of being an expense to the State, as it has been for years. Jlr. Milledge de- * fended the action of the committee and 1 spoke in favor of acquiring the infor mation desired by the sub committee. Mr. Luffman was opposed to the reso lution, had voted against it and would i vote against reconsideration. , Mr. Hardeman thought the passage of the resolution would be to settle the question in favor of removal, which was a foregone conclusion. He was op- j posed to the resolution. The last ses-i sion of this Legislature had decided j against the removal, and he thought it I was the duty of the House to conform j its legislation on the subject with the I action of the last session. Mr. Diamond said the gentleman from Baldwin had remarked that there were certain persons outside who desir ed to sell granite, lime and rock. He would say it was not true that any such persons were here, or had approached' the committee on that subject. Mr. j Kenan, stated in explanation, that the j Stone Mountain had been looked upon in days past, by many, as the probable j location of the Penitentiary, and there had been efforts, on the part of the 1 owners of that site, to dispose of it to i the State. On the question of recon- i sideration, on motion of Mr. Kenan I the yeas and nays were called for—yeaß 44, nays 62—so the motion was last.— ■ The House then engaged for some time ! in reading bills the second time. The following bills were read the) 'first time : > I ! Mr. Irwin, A bill to reorganize the; i Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb. Mr. Hardy, a bill to establish a system | ■ of common schools. Mr. Smith, a bill to refer the removal !of the Penitentiary to the voters of the > state. Mr. Hardeman,'a bill to incorporate the Cotton Planter’s Convention. ; Mr. Bigbam, a resolution in reference to the claims of Georgia for military service rendered to the United States. The House then adjourned to 10 o’clock tomorrow morning. BY TELFX.iiAIM 1.

REMOVAL TO THE CITY OF ATLANTA I 1 1 Con. vkra.Ut/ Enlarged Circulation 10,000 1 i rriHE CRUSADER, being a State Jour - JL nal rather ihau a country paper, should, unquestionably, be published at the most centra 1 . and accessible locality ; and since Atlanta offers advantages, in these two particulars, far supe rior to any oilier place, we have determined, through the influenco of numberless friends am leading citizens of the State, to removff our office to that city ; hence, the first number of the new series for 1859, will be issued from that point early in January next, much ehlargvl, togellier with other improvements. The Literary Departments will continue under the control of our popular Editor and Editress, j Mr. L. L. Yeazey aud Mrs. M;.ry E. Bryan, both of whom will reside in Atlanta. Rev. Jno. A. Reynolds, (M. K.) one of the most accomplished printers in the South, will continue as our Publisher. f With the ad vantages of a city location so cen tra!, and of such growing importance as Atlanta, we hope to publish a paper which shall be ade -1 quate io the great demands of the temperance cause, and at the same time supply the want of a prominent Literary Journal of tho South. Many friends of tho Crusader predict that its subscription list will be doubled during the et: suing year; if so it will then visit weekly nearly ten thousand honK.=. To fully realize all this, will require hut a slight effort on the part of our friends. Will that effort be made promptly— earnestly ? Subscription price $2.

And Ido earnestly invito the different congregations composing all the religious de nominations of every name i t this Stute, to meet 1 at their respective places of worship, on that day, and unite in returning thanks and singing praises to our God for his wondrous works in the past, and in fervent prayer for His prote ting care in future, remembering that the Psalmist has said. “ Ix?t the people praise Thee, then shall the earth yield her increase, and God, even our God, shall bless us.” Given under my hand, and the Seal of the Exec utive Department, at the Cupitol in Millcdgc ville, this 4th day of November, in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and fifty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the eighty-third.
