GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. MiLI.KOGtVII.LM, Jttll. 17, lyofi SENATE. Mr. Cantrell moved to reconsider the vote of f Senate, on the bill forming a new county front napkin and Gilmer. The motion was sustained Messrs. Dlnxagax of Hall, and McMillan of eoslium, and opposed by Mr. Gibson of Pike, tote was yeas, 51; nays'3*. So the motion to ■ insider prevailed. On motion of Mr. Nichols of Clinch, the bill iet> -fore voteil down, relieving engineers from •• necessity of blowing the engine whistle, within •<ui hundred vards of every crossing wav, was re nsidered. The gentleman advocated his motion i sensible and practical speech. He was second tin Messrs. Bn a a.van of Coweta, and McMillan i Habersham. An unsuccessful motion was made insider the vote of the Senate, bv which the ■ 1 prohibiting Ordinaries iu this State from prac «ing law was lost. .bi lge ( ini: culled up his resolutions approving ■ views of ihe President on the Constitutional • ory of our Government, his position on the ivery question, ami his construction of the Clav ■ .-Bi lwkr treaty, and urging our Representa . in Congress, who are opposed to the election i Freesoil Speaker, to meet, unite, nominate, . I elect a sound man. After the reading of the d ilutions, Judge < onk addressed the Senate in ; half of their adoption. In the course of his ! i,l and eloquent speech, he said, that if he were a tin- House of Representatives, he would vote Mr. Richardson,notwithstanding the adoption of hai he considered an objectionable and uimeces ■i; v resolution by the caucus which nominated He said be considered the slavery question laramount to any aud all other issues, and that he, j a,*, was willing to waive the agitation of any arty question of minor importance, so ns to pro- j • and advance the interests of the South. Mr Peebles, ol Clarke, followed in support of i. - .huions. He said he preferred the expres ■ii of no opinion with regard to the construction j : the ( lav ton Bclwkr Treaty, as its history and aseology were not very familiar to himself, and bablv not to others. However, from his knowl igeoftt, he thought the construction of the Presi- - -ut correct, ami should support the resolutionsin a ■.iv, if insisted on. Mr. Walks, of Muscogee, moved to amend th.- ilution approving the position of the President, . expressing the wish that it may he carried out . die administration of the Government. No ae •n was taken on the amendment separately front ■ resolutions. Mr. Bi chasas, of Coweta, was opposed to the !"|)tion of the resolutions, as reported by the iitlenian front Greene, because he considered the quest made of our Representatives to meet and ate iii the nomination of an acceptable man, as .plying a disapproval of the course of a majority diem, in sustaining with commendable firmness Richardson, whom he considered safe ■.■ vend question, mid whom he thought entitled to ■ unqualified and unanimous support of our eu ■ delegation, and the whole South. He moved -trike out the words "meet, unite and nominate,” a the first resolution. On this motion in. defi lie action was had. Mr. McMillan, of Habersham, moved the refer . . of the resolutions to a select Committe of five, at they might be so framed, as to meet the ap jation, and receive the unanimous support of e Senate. Ho concurred fully in the position ta • n by Mr. Bi chan an, and insisted ou the motion refer with his usual ability. Mr. Gibson, of Pike, and Mr. Murpht, of De .alb, addressed the Senate iu support of Mr. M. : : can's motion’. In order to bring the Semite to direct vote on the original resolutions, and thus minute die debate, and dispose of the tendered neudnients and motions offered, without a separ ate! direct vote on either of them. Mr. Law con, Burke, called sot ‘‘the previous question.” The ■.. ate refused to second the call —the vote stand 's veas si\ nays 52 —and here the matter rests, ibieei to be called up on a subsequent day. The “whistling bill, ' as it is familiarly termed, biel) releases railroad Engineers from the necCs ty of blowing the whistle on approaching a cross ad, yesterday lost and to-day re-cousidered, was ken up and discussed at some length, and final refen-., d to a -oeci.il committee of three, consist .a <■( .Messrs Mruciiv, Miller, and McMillan. Numerous amendments wete proposed. .Sonic ■ these were agreed to, others rejected, and some ithdrawn. The Senate is unquestionably opposed the screaming c.f the engine, and will certainly -pease with it, if the bill c-au be so framed in re ed to other precautions, such as limiting the • ed, suspending signs, £c at the cross-tvays, as be acceptable. Several bills have been, aud are now pending in Legislature, proposing an alteration of the or . fixation of the Judiciary system of this State L.eso, being three or four in number, were taken aud read this morning, and as the one intro ■ed by Judge (.’one, of Greene, approximated .rest to a full comprehension of the objects ght by all of them, it was agreed that his should ted on, and the others remain on the table for present. The bill was taken up by paragraphs, -.1 amended or agreed to, and finally passed bv .. re than two thirds of the Senate, after a pro ved debate, embracing the remainder of the filing, and nearly all the afternoon session. !.: • bill being a lengthy one. 1 shall not pretend 'ter a complete synopsis of its provisions, bul rely refer to the important changes which it kes iu the Constitution as it now stands.

From the ll anhington star. C oiigressional Proceedings. lit the House on the 14tli, after we went to press, ■ the one hundred and tenth and one hundred and eleventh votes for a Speaker without effecting a choice, the latter resulting as follows: Whole number of votes east, -2os: lieccessary to a choice, 105. j Mr. Richardson received i’i4, Banks 05, Fuller, of Pa., 33, Pennington 7, scattering J. Ere the result of this ballot was declared, Mr. | Barksdale rose to a correction of u portion of the report of the proceedings of the previous day pub j lished in the Globe; which led to a discussion be tween Messrs. Rennet, and Pennington and liim j self, ending as follows, according to the Union’s i report : Mr. Barksdale not agreeing with the gentleman from Missouri as to the propriety of the questions which he had propounded underthe circumstances, and not agreeing with him as to the grace he dis played on that occasion, still felt it his duty, under ! the disclaimer of the gentleman that he intended no personal reflection, to withdraw his demmeia ! lions. He cheerfully accepted the gentleman’s apology. Mr. Pennington did not happen to he in his seat at the time the gentleman front Missouri, (Mr. Kenneit, i propounded his questions, and, tlier fore, he did not hear them, but he took this oppor tunity to answer them. That gentleman “ wished to know of each of the candidates, including his ! friend from New Jersey, t'Mr. Pennington, ■ i whether or not lie believed in a future state? And, ! if that question should be answered aflirmativelv, i whether he believed it would be a free or a slave j State?” lie, Mr. P.. was somewhat versed in the ; Westminster Catechism, and lie had learned from j that, that there is a future state, in which he be- ; lievc-d. He, also, understood that there were two ’ States in that future State—one the beatified and | the other damned—the free and the slave. Laugh ter'. The free State was on one side of the line, and the slave State on the other side ; and believed' it was not exactly a compromise line, [renewed laughter] ; but he had always understood that, the damned side was the hottest, and therefore, that must be the Southern side. [Great laughter . It was held by some that there is a third State— the State of purgatory. Now, he had no acquain tance, with this State except such as he had learn ed from the course of purgation going on in this House. He knew of certain gentlemen who had been in a Slate of purgatory her j laughter,; and i placing his hand upon his heart) lie knew one gentleman past praying for. Shouts of laughter Mr. Rennet wished to say one word in reply to his friend from New Jersey, who seemed to be so well posted up in his catechism in regard to the future stales lying north and south of the line, and 1 the state of purgatory. As the gentleman had been i kind enough to bind some of them hand and foot j and pitch them into that dark place in advance, he ■ desired to know in reference to his catechism 1 whether, when he informed the House on Saturday that lie had got bey ond “effectual calling,” he was also able to see his “election sure.” Tremendous laughter, j Mr. Pennington thanked the gentleman, and begged leave to say that lie ‘owed hint one." ■ Laughter.] The House then adjourned I‘ItOCEEDINOS OF TO-DAI The Senate did not meet to-day. In the House, after they had refused to adopt a I motion for a call of the House— Mr. Quitman rose to a personal explanation, sta ting tint while he felt perfectly satisfied that Mr. Richardson, if elected, would administer the du ties of the Chair in a manner perfectly con-, rva- ' live of the rights of the South, and of all other j sections of the Union, (commenting ou Mr. R.’s j legislative history, to show that he was justified iu holding that opinion ~ went on to explain the dis- ; ference between his own views and those of Mr. R. upon the abstract point of the constitutionality : of the Wilmot Proviso, and intimated that his votes against him yesterday, by war of setting himself right on the record, he should continue I hereafter to support him, being entirely aitisiicd j that in his hands the rights of the South will be as safe as in tics • of anv other honorable member \ whoever. The House then proceeded with the lli’th vote j for a Speaker, with the following result, viz ; Whole number of votes cast, 207 ; necessary to a choice, lot. Richardson fin, Banks hi, Fuller 54, Pennington s, scattering S. Mr. Millson— when his name was called in the coarse of this vsite —addressed the House iu expla- ' nation of his course in the pending election, de- ! daring that he had done his best to compass the election of Mr. Richardson, differing as he did on some points from that gentleman, and that feeling due responsibility iu bis position as a member of the House, he thought it bis duty to do everything within bis power to compass a satisfactory elec- j tion. He had, therefore, to sat that though he should vote for Mr. Richardson, h • was willing to . •aid in the election of any other conservative mem ber. He continued his remarks, explaining at some length the fact that this election was by no means as important as had been represented. No choice having been effected, they proceeded with the 11 Gill vote sot a Speaker, which resulted as follows: Whole number of totes east, got.; necessary to a choice, 104. for Richardson fir.. Bank ' 92, Fuller S 3, Pen niugton s, scattering s. Mr. Washburn, of Me, then otlci.-.l a plurahtt rule resolution, to take eti’eet on tin* third succeed ing vote for a .Speaker. Mr. Clingman remarked that be had recently been willing to adopt the plurality rule, but was ; now unwilling to vote for it on account ot the ex plosion of that gentleman’s view on the equality ..1 races and amalgamation qu--sTii.ii, made by Mr. Banks on Saturday last. Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, was explaining his tea sons for having voted against the adoption of the plurality rule up to this time. Here opr report went to press. Treaty between Russia and the United fttate. The following is published in the English pa pers : •• A telegraphic despatch from iierlin relates an unconfirmed rumor to the ctiect that Russia and the United Suites have concluded a treaty, offen sive and defensive, in case war should break out between Britain anti America; but another version is, that the agreement merely relates to the pur chase of ships-of-war. The following is a paragraph in the Vienna Austrian Oaze't. : “There is a good deal of talk in the mililai \ cireL -of a treaty having recently been concluded between the Cabinets of St. Pe tersburg amt Washington, in which they bind themselves to lend each other effective assistance in the event of war breaking out between the Uni ted States and the Western Powers. It is further said, and with greater probability, that Russia is negotiating with the United States for forty live or fifty ships of war. FRANCK HINTS AT A EUROPEAN CONCHKSS. The idea of calling together a European Con gress, “ to settle not only the present Eastern dif ficulty, but all the complications of European rela tions that have arisen since the Congress of Vien na”—iri other words, to readjust the balance of power- is reported to be the pet idea of the Em peror Nupole in, and to be exceedingly distasteful to England. Napoleon is said to have actually commissioned M. de Seebach, the Minister of Saxo iiv, who has gone to St. Petersburg as bearer of the views of the smaller German States, to bring the suggestion under the immediate consideration of the Emperor Alexander. How utterly displeasing this proposal is to the English government, may be inferred from the lan guage of the London Timex, which says: “Rather than submit our quarrel to a Congress in which RuE'ni would be omniponeut by the votes of her vassals and mercenaries, let the sword decide be tween u* ! We did not draw it without counting the cost, and wc ought not to sheath it without some better guarantee than can be afforded bv the wisdom or firmness of a Congress of European Sovereigns- It is needless to say that the influ ence of France, more than of Russia is feared in a Congress. ” In connection with this alleged idea of Napo leon’s is the publication, in Paris, of a pamphlet entitled Nectmte d’nn Congreat partner VEurope, by unhonone. d’Etat. This’ pamphlet has made a sensation. Pains are taken to promulgate that the ; writer is a M. Dureyier, but the general impres sion is that the Emperor himself is the author. ; The work is largely quoted from in the Engiish journals. It advocates the immediate calling of a i Congress of Nations, THE PEACE NEGOTIATIONS. The week’s news present no new facts as to the progress of the peace negotiations. We have, however, a great many repots and surmises, the tenor of all indicating increased hopes of a renew- . al of direct negotiations. The Preset of Vienna has the following : 1 “We learn from a respectable source that the English journals are misinformed when they state j that Count Esterhazy is the bearer of an ultimatum , : to the Russian government. He in .simply com missioned to communicate to the Russian Cabinet propositions which may ultimately lead to peace. ; A perfect understanding prevails between Vienna, i Paris and London, but a rejection of the terms now j made will hardly immediately lead to the direct ( participation of Austria in the war. Austria will make another political demonstration recall her minister before she resolves on taking a step of, such extreme importance.” Ihe \ ietia o<lrMstche Ztituuy adds: “Up to the present moment, Austria has not pledged herself to enforce the conditions of peace, us they now stand with the sword. Indeed, it would be simply ridiculous to menace Russia as ; a season when it is impossible to attack her. As regards the nature of the terms offered to Russia, the ienna Gant * says: ” In fact, all the lost positions are to be restored. The mouths of the Dniester ami Danube, and, with the exception of a few points, the Crimean coast, are iu the hands of the opponents of Russia, aud the sea is forbidden to Russian ships. Vet Russia is to suffer no territorial limitation; the Baltic is to bi open to her ships, and the Euxine to her commer cial navy. She must give up the luxury of a Black Sea fleet, and open]her ports to foreign consuls; but, on the other baud, she need razee none of |hor fortifications. Nothing is demanded which would wound the dignity or lower tlie military honor of ■ Russia. The command of the Sulina mouth of the Danube was acquired by Russia without the 1 consent of Europe, and only held under the pre tence of guaranteeing the Continent of Europe . against the plague. But Europe, which no longer requires the aid of Russia to secure it against tint evil, does need and must have the freedom of the Danube.” j i The official Dresden Journal states that Prussia lias expressed her willingness to agree to the neu trality of the Black Sea, subject to certain condi- 1 fious. Other Prussian papers say that the detnoli- < tion of the Russian fortresses on the Black St-u is f not insisted ou by the Allies. < X )MMERCIAL. Augusta Market, Jau. 19.
