Special to the Telegraph a»d Messeoger. | Atlanta, N ivembffr B.—The Senate re , fused lo reconsider ils action of yesterday i repealing the District court act. A spicy debate occurred, io tho course j of which brace of R tdicals where flayed. I The provoking cause of the debate was the preamble and resolution introduced by | Broyrn, pronouncing » large u umber of the witnesses called to testify before the Coir* gressional Ku-klux Committee,as unworthy of credit before any court, and asserting that the people of the State were uever more peaceable and law-abiding,"and in*- viiing that portion of the Ku-klux Commit tee now here to the Slate, and pledging the aid of tho General Assembly to enable said Committee to investigate any outrages against the law of the State or to the United Slades. The negro Senator Campbell, opposed.the adoption of the resolutions, aud Brock de> liv red himself at length against them as untrue in itgatd to his district, Candler sprinkh and them both with hot shot He denied the existence of the alleged lawless ness, and charged Cambell as being amen able to a bench warrent arrest, from which he was screened by his membership in the Legislature. He enlightened Brock with ‘the evidence of his knowledge of his aiding in the robbery of the State of $1,600 as chairman of the committee in charge of the State road. The amount was spent by Brock for liquor and cigars. Campbell essayed to reply, but Brock remained as a sheep. The preamble and resolutions .were adopted . Lester’s resolution was adopted appointing Iverson L. Harris, \V. B. Fleming and John It. Alexauder to represent the interest of the State in the Albany and Gulf Railroad. Several bills were upon the first reading, but not of any special interest. The foK lowing bills were on their reading. A bill to incorporate the Savannah and Thunder* bolt Railroad Company—passed, A bill to repeal the act incorporating the New nan and Americus Railroad —passed. A bill to amend an act to ptescribe the prac tice in eases of injunction and other extra ordinary remedies in equity—passed. Sen ate adjourned. House. —On motion ofHudson the Com mittee on Privileges and Elections were directed to inquire into the right of L. C. Junes, a resident of Fulton county, to rep resent Macon county. A multitude of bills were introduced, mainly of local interests and not of suf ficient importance to be telegraphed. The following bills were on their third reading: A bill to incorporate the Excel sior State Mining Company—passed. A bill to amend the act authorizing the city of Rome to Subscribe SIOO,OOO to the Mem phis Branch Railroad —passed. A bill to create anew county of the name of Staple ton, by a division of Jefferson county—re ferred to the Judicary Committee. A bill to change the time of meeting of the Leg islature to the third Wednesday in July laid on the table. A bill to prohibit the granting of retail liquor license in the town of Gainsville —passed. A message was received from the Ex ecutive, transmitting a communication from J. E. Brown, reporting certain errors in the inventory of the property of the State road. The communication was referred to the Committee on the Western and Atlantic Railroad. A message was received, transmitting the report of the Secretary of State, showing the registered issae of railroad bonds since the act requiring their registration in bi» office after October, 1810. The report ex hibits the issue for the Brunswick and Al bany Railroad to be $1,800,000; for the Ma con and R»um»wick Railroad $600,000; for the Cherokee road $300,000. Adjourned. Duff Green speaks in the capitol to-night on the question of 6nance. The Houne today refused to extend the privilege of the floor to the Trustees of ihe State University, scrupulously guarding against the admission of lobbyists. A res olution to advance each officer and member one hundred dollars was adopted. The State .Democratic Executive Com' miitee met to-day *nd directed the Chairman to call a Convention of the party to nom inate a candidate for Governor so soou as the bill providing for an election passes the Legislature.

NO 25.' Resolved, That Rufus B. Bullock, la to Governor of the Stato of Georgia, who has resigned his office, and left the State under circumstances creating grave suspicions that he is guilty of high crimes and miads\ meanors, has, in charging in a letter bear ing date of 23d October, 1811, addressed to his political lrtenda ana me people vi Georgia* that a majority of tho House of -at ive had pledged themselves to vote for articles of impeachment against him without investigation, and that tho Senate had determined to unseat a sufficient number of Republican Senators to aoenro his ccuvictiou, without regard to ths truth and validity of the charges, defamed this General Assembly by charges which are untrue; Resolved, That the statement in thesamo letter to the effect that the people of Geor, gia bars recently denounced or ignored tho Constitution of the United States, is false and defumitory of the people of this State; on the contrary we aseeit that the people of this State do uow, as they did six months ago, (when, according to the letter of Ru fus B. Bllock, they were peaceable diss posed,) .acquiesco in the result of the war, and neither entertain any hostility toward the United States, nor deny to any person in the State tho equal protection of the laws. # The Amenities of Politics—How Ono Presidential Candidate “Goes'* for Another. George Francis Train who is, an nil tho world knows, an independent candidate for President against the field, made one of hio rip-staving Durations at St. Joseph, Mis souri-, one night last week. Tho following extract will serve both to show George** style, aud also what be thinks of oue of his opponents: Grant is tho most gigantic sell ever play ed off on an outi aged people. [«Sensation. J He is au ignoramus. He thinks Lafoyetto came from Germany and the Hessians from France. [That's so.] Hence he sided with a rotten empire against a livo repub lic. [Hisses.] Dou’t hiss him, he don't., know any better. I never see tho General that I dun't feel like saying: General, I‘v« .only five minutes, tell mo all yoa know. [Laughter.] You might as well try to light a wet squib as to get a popular chcor for the great dead-beat, dead-head, bribe-ta* kcrJ [Sensation aud applause.] His pas* sage through the East and West is a funeral cortege, with Morton , Butler, and official thieves, "a* pall-bearers. [Sensation.] His own parly swallowed his as they wonld a does of salts and senna. [Laugh** ter.] They are ashamed of him* His Ige norance, his nepotism,his disgusting habits,, are minutely portrayed by Sumner, Tiaioa and Phillips, once his bosom companions,. [Laughter.] Gteeley ana Butler loathe while the party obliges these professional hacks to sleep with him. [Laghter.] A fast horse, a short six, some rot-got, a tan yard, a big steal, and stolid stupidity make up his grand total. [Hisses.] Forty Years Aoo.—Forty years ago lit* erature and learning was supported by common sense. Refined nonsense had no advocates, and was prcjty generally kick* ed out of doors. Forty years sgo there were bat few me** chants or insolvent debtors in tbo country, and they were rarely imprisoned for deb*. Forty years ago ladies of the first res pectability learned music, but it was that of tbs spinning wheel. Forty years ago age waa respeeled and children knew their proper places. Forty years ago there was honesty, In tellect and integrity in the Government Forty years ago President# refused to ‘sell and mart their offices for gold to un der-servers.* What a falling off thert is I The Newcastle, (England,) strike has entered anew phase. The masters now refuse to take back only such of their old bauds as they think proper. They dec Has to reduce the hours of labor as was agreed the other day, notes* they are peimitlsd Is select only tbe most skillful workmen. Mir oting is the conaequeuce. A cry for immediate relief sosms from tbe unhappy people of Maaistcr, Mtsbigss, who have b<*en burned out of bones and, like tbefr fellow-sufferers in a sears of other places devastated by tbs prairie fire.*, rendered utterly destitute of tbeoof** moo necessaries of Ilfs. The losses by tbe bur.iH'g of Manistee are estimated at $1,4 000,000.
