Mr. Bine's speech is said to have been well received ly*the House, anij when he took his sedt the Applause was long and cQnt-innoiiH, and the Speaker had to rap vigorously end of ten to bring quiet to the Housp. His. speech, while it had nothing of the or atorical or ‘bunkum’ to recommend it, was filled with facts and common sense. The effect.was the passage o^’ the bill bv an overwhelming vote. ” .

The wise will understand. G. - REPR ESENTATI VE BLIT E. Effect of the speech of a Colored Georgia Legislator. The Columbus Enquirer of recent date, after a few geueral remarks by way of introducing the subject, has the following on the speech of onr re presentative on the convict question: “When the bill came np in the House for a final vote, he rose in his place and informed the Speaker that he desired to ‘make a few remarks’ on the merits of the bill. The members were more than glad to bear what a negro had to say on the question, and requested him to come to the front, where he could be beard. He opened his speech by sta* ting thnt. ns a negro (he did not say colored man), he was peculiarly inter ested in this matter, ns his race com prised three-fonrths of the representa tives among the State convicts; that he was opposed to funning them out in squads; he wanted them kept to gether; that once he was a slave; and lie had been well treated and cared for; that there Were many as good mns-i ters as his, yet he asked his white friends to deny that there were bad masters—who half fed them and half clothed them. The same state of af fairs existed to-day. He knew one man who had fifty of these convicts. He was a kind man, a good mnn. The convicts under him were clothed, fed and cared for as kindly as he conld ask; yet he knew other men who trea ted them as if they were brutes, yes, worse than brutes. He desired this stopped. He asked for his people, who on account of their ignorance were criminals—not that the negro did no* know it was wrong to steal, but he had not been trained to that moral sence of right and wrong that the whites had, and that had nothing in his education to prevent him from stealing except that it was against the law.—What he (the speaker) wanted was that these criminals should be kept together in such numbers as to be pnnished without cruelty. Ho wanted those who hired them, to be required to provide a physician to at* tend them while sick, a preacher to in struct and console them, that when they had served out their term, they would not go back into the world crip ples and invalids in health or outlaws in morals. He wanted them reformed, if possible, made better men and wo men; and when they hod endured the punishment put upon them by the law, they would be prepared to take Cauoht at Last.--Belknap,*.
