The Georgia Constitutional Convention, with commendable precaution, passed an ordinance proriding for the election of Stato officers and Legislature at the time of voting for or against the constitution, and declaring that the officers so elected were deemed provisional until the State should be admitted, after which they ware to enter upon and be limited by the term prescribed in the new constitution. On this point we quote from the able speech of Judge Lawrence, of Ohio, (Congressional Globe, Sun day, March fi:) On the 10th of March, 1668, the Georgia Constihrfioaal Convention psnsnii “ an ordi nance to provide for the election of civil offi cers." Under this, on the 20th of April, 1868, the pressntLegislatnre, Governor Billlock, and other State officer* and Representatives in Congress, now in office, were elected. That ordinance is in part in these words: “Whereas all civil officers of the Stato are Amherst College is to admit female students next session, and already the rumor is said to bare produced an “extraordinary improve ment in the personal appeoranee" of the male students.

Dr. Walker and her Pantaloons. Dr. Mary Walker has left inhospitable New Orleans and gone off to Texas. There, we feel assured, she will be permitted to wear what manner of garment best pleases her. People of all kinds do pretty raneh os they please in that dominion. A nice young man in New Orleans ran away with and married the sopposed daughter of a highly respectable lady, and camo back for the lady’s blessing, which was freely given, together with the information that the girl ■was not her daughter, but a quadroon servant girl. He said it was a swindle, and left for parts unknown. Prom Washington. The news from Washington plainly indicates that not only the Bingham Amendment, bnt the Georgia Rill itself will be defeated. This U not unexpected. No one, we presume, doubt ed the fate of the Bingham Amendment and the Georgia Bill after its advocacy by the Bryant Democracy 1 only provisional until this State is represented Congress," Ac. Then, after providing for the election, it is declared that— The persons so elected or appointed shall enter upon the duties of the sotcioI offices to which they have been respectively elected, when authorized so to do by facts of Congress or by the order of the general commanding, and shall continue in office till the regular suc cession provided for after the year 1868, and until successors ore elected and qualified,” Ac. The Constitution of the State, article three, section one, provides that State Senators shall be elected, part for four, part for two years; members of the House of Representatives for two years. And under article four, section one, the Governor is entitled to hold his office for four years. It is then provided, in article eleven, section eleven, as follows : ••Should this Constitution be ratified by the people, and Congress accept the same with any qualifications or conditions, the Govern ment herein provided for and the officer* elected shall nevertheless exist and continue in the exercise of their several functions os the Government of this State so far os the same may be consistent with the action of the United States in the premises.” The officers, including the Governor, as wo have seen, were, by the military commander, appointed provisional officers after their elec tion. It is claimed by the Republicans of Georgia, by the Legislature, and by our friends there, that when the State shall be by law admitted, that the Legislature will enter upon its term and continue in office “until the regular suc cession provided for after the year 1868, and nntil their successor* ore elected and quali fied." If tho State should bo by law admitted this year, the election for the first regular succes sion would occur simultaneously with (he Presidential election, in November, 1872. Bnt the amendment of Mr. Bingham will throw our friends out of power in Georgia by reqnir, ing an election before the regular time, and be fore any preparstiop eon be completed to insure a fair free vote. With the notorious fact before the country that thirty or more of the colored members of the Georgia Legislature were expelled soon after that body bad assumed to organize, and that with the exception of those of them who have been murdered, these colored members were only restored to their seats within the last thirty days, who dare say that they have en joyed their full term ? Are these loyal men to be again bound hand and foot, and turned over to the rebels? We have great confidence that the Republi can Senate will give a decisive answer by not allowing this gnat wrong to be perpetrated, and that the amendment will be rejected. Baltimore Annual Conference of the 91. K -'■■■» ■ -..ClmrclA. Reported far tho Baltimore Son.] SEVENTH RAT. Frederick, Md., March 9, 1870.

That it is important for ns as ministers to visit frequently our public schools, and give them all possible aid and encouragement. After the transaction of other business the Conference finally adjourned. Bishop Ames announced the following... From the Wuhtafton Chronicle.] ivernmcnt of On end Wbil Are IS Regular The friends of the Bingham Amendment oc cupy the contradictory position of holding that the government of Georgia is not provisional, and at the some time desire to impose condi tions of a purely local character in tho bill providing for the admission of that State by requiring an election in advance of the proper time. We hold that the government of Georgia is provisional, and that, being provisional, the term of the members of the Legislature will mot commence under the Constitution until tho State is admitted, and that, after being ad mitted, the tern will be limited to two years for member* of the Home, and to the same period for one-half of the members of the Senate. First let us establish the tact that the gov- •ernment of Georgia is provisional; and to do Shi* we shall make brief reference to the legis lation of Congress and the acts of tho United Statcsjautkorities on this point. We commence by quoting from the first re construction act, viz: March2,1867: Sxc. 6. That until the people of the said re bel States.'shall by law be admitted to repre sentation t* the CongreM of tho United States, the civil governments that may exist therein shall be deemed provisional only, and shall be in all respects subject to the paramount author ity of the United Statu any time to aboHsh, modify, control, and supercede the same, q " Next, we find that, in recognition of the fact -Tibet nntil the people, eta, shall by law be ad mitted to representation, the civil government* that may exist thorein stall be deemed provi sionalonly. General Meade, then command ing the district, under the reconstruction set, . of which Georgia was a port, after the election ■ of legislators, mado the following decision ,upen the inquiry of a member at to his eligi bility, April 15, 1868: “ These and other pro- ■ visions of the reconstruction nets clearly show that whatever government may exist in Geor- •gia before the fiifiliu.rnt of tho above conditions imustbe deemeaprovisionai only. ... - • Itut legislation bos to be taken while tho tSjptc is yet under provisional government, and She member* of the Legislature must be quol- tted tohold office under that proririonol gov ernment." And, thirdly, in General Terry's report of August 14, 1SC9, after presenting an able ar- . raiment, baaed upon the law and the oandition ■Jo affairs, it is stated, that "35,1868, in it* rescinding section, provides that “no person, prohibited from holding office under the United States or under any State bjr ruction three of the proposed amendment to the Constitution of the United States, known as article fourtcon, shall be eligible to any -office in either of said States, unless relieved from disability as provided in said amend ment f thus in effect prescribing the character .of the Legislature by which said amendment should be adopted as a condition precedent to restoration, that is to say, Legi posed of persons eligible to offie -amendment .Vo sucA Legislature has yet as sembled in Georgia." General Terry then says: “In conclusion, I desire to express my conviction that the only way to restore good order in the State is to re sume military control over it for the time bo- ing, and ultimately to provble by late | Legislature slrsll reassemble as a islature, from which all ineligible per* be excluded, and to which all eligible persons elected to it, white or black, shall be admitted, finch a Legislature would, I believe, enact such law* and invest the Executive with snoh pow er* os would enable him to keep the peace, protect life and property, and punish crime.” This was followed by the recommendation of the Tre-ident, upon which tho act of De cember 22, 1869, was paused, “providit ,- by law that the Legislature shonld reassemble." At. and an the 24th of December the Bresi dent assigned General Terry to the command of Georgia as n aUiiory district, under the re construction acts; and so the case stands to- ' General Terry is in supremo command, re moving and appointing officers, repealing and enforcing laws at Ids pleasure, as his judgment may decide to be best for the per-ee and good order of that people. Con there, then, be any donbt that tho gov ernment of Georgia has boen and is provision ed up to this moment, and tl)*t ?uch has been Governor Bullock's Record. Judge Davis, of New York, late of the Court of Appeals in that State and now a Represen tative from the Rochester district in Congress, in the oouree of tho Georgia debate on Tuesday last spoke as fallows: Then, allow me to say that when Gangrene passes this set determining the oath these offi cers shall take, it supersedes your objection and disarms it of ail force; for upon complying with this set Georgia steps back into tho Union, her officers stand upon her own con stitution, and Congress ceases to have power over those officers beyond what it has over all State officers. Now, Mr. Speaker, I propose to say a few words personal to Governor Bullock- He has been assailed, in the coarse of debate upon the subject of Georgia, both now and hereto fore, in tho bitterest personal invective. I re gard such debate not only os indecorous hare, but as altogether wanting in that regard to propriety that this House ought always to re quire. It is of small importance, in respect to the great principles before us, what has been done by individuals in Georgia. Whether Governor Bollock be a good man or a bod man ought not to affect the legislation of this body. Whether it will benefit or injure him is of no moment to this House in the discharge of our solemn duty. I have known Mr. Bul lock from his earliest boyhood. His parents reside in my village; they are my immediate neighbor*; and I have known Governor Bullock from childhood to the present hour. With a parentage of which any man might be proud to boast, lw has been reared to love honesty and integrity. Thirteen year* ago—long before the war— the duties in which ho vros engaged called him into the Southern States. He married while there, and there his children have been bom and reared; there oil his hopes in life and all his interests have been east By his own in telligence, his practical good sonae, his earnest ore for and devotion to right and justice, he has made for himself a name, and gained for himself a fame that have given him the high position that he now ooenpiea. He has at all times challenged investigation into his official and private character. Yet men stand here to asperse both without a shadow of proof, acting upon no evidence, bat seeming to think that by denrmciaton of Governor Bul lock they will have gained their end, and de feated the bill to restore Georgia, and accom plished a purpose for which I can see no mo tive on earth. I think they will toil in this. I con tell you the secret, Mr. Speaker, of this attack on Governor Bullock. If that man had chosen, as, occupying the position ho did in Georgia, ho might havo done, to strike hands with these legacies of the rebellion, these purse- proud aristocrats who eonnot forget that the war has deprived them of thair slaves and made those slaves their equals before God and the law—if he would hare struck hands with that class of men all would have been well. No man on yonder side of this House would have aspersed his conduct No attack upon his private, reputation would have been made here. 1 Qrekgra would hare been reorganised to suit Hie notions of gentlemen who condemn her now. Her humble, her poor, those whom we have rescued from bondage and set up in sH the rights of manhood, would have gone back again, if sot to chattel slavery, at least to a bondage scarcely better. But such was not the conduct of Governor Bullock. God bos not moved in his heart to commit such outrages upon the spirit of the age. On the contrary, hatred of striking hands with that class of men, and building np for himself power and wealth and social rela tions with them, he has reached, with an open heart and a warm hand, down to the poor and humble of bis State. He has sought to pro tect them at an times, and to see to it that the rights Congress hod given to them were not destroyed or tramplod upon by their former masters, who fonght bnt (ailed to destroy the Government under which wo live. He has stood up boldly and manfully far (ha right, for the equality before tho law of all men, and history win preserve his name when they who have aspersed him here or elsewhere will be forgotten. The history of Georgia will em balm his name as one whose deeds have saved her hnmble poor, the representatives of motuol labor in her fields and her mechanic shops, and everywhere throughout the State, from tho burden of constant oppression forever. His name wfll stand on her pages not only as the first Gov ernor of Georgia after the great rebellion, but as one who, amid a storm of obloquy and re proach, amid threats of assassination and dan gers that might appall the stoutest heart, obey ed the wiU of Goa and the dictates of justice and hnmantty while firmly executing the law. liTcn and Thing*. A blooming widow of 36 called at the Pro bate office in on Ohio town and asked for a marriage licsnse. Her husband that was to be was “only 18, and so bashful." Illinois has a young lady of 17, bearing the ‘ I’loi* Mills. She is a bmglares*; and as a reward for opening up a new field of la bor for women, is to rajoy a five years’ visit to the penitentiary. The chief argument at political meeiipgs in the present Connecticutcompaigu is said to he upon the important question as to how mnch the respective candidates for Governor can drink without getting drunk.

The Georgia Qaestlo: The action of tho House yesterday in regard . r* • : J 3 el of that State, is so remarkable that ve cannot refrain from calling attention to tho contradic tory and nnwise position into ^rhich the party has been forced by the ingenious use of fifty Democratic) rotes. -* In December last, upon the recommendation of the President, and against the protestation of Messrs. Bingham and Farnsworth, Congress passed an act to promote the reconstruction Of 0«QI| ' ' ^ ** trol of excluded from it by the rerolutionaiy pro ceedings of nnpardono4 1?^®* un ^ cr in spiration of "Wade Hampton’s Democratic platform, which was adopted at the Xew Yor^: Convention. Under that act of Congress the Legislature was reorganized, loyal officers were placed in power, and Republican Senators were elected. Upon this state of facie the Reconstruction Committee of the House report a bill for the admission of Georgia similar to that by which Mississippi and Virginia were admitted; so that at last, after the great trials whioh they had endured, tho great sacrifices which they had made for the maintenance of Republican pfiariple*s in G.-i-r^ia. this Iw-publicau organi zation should now bo admitted to the Union, and enter upon the execution of the great principles of equality, justice and education required and established by the now Conatitu- t But what do wo see? Yesterday, in tho House, an amendment is forced upon the bill reported by tho committee. Forced, wo say, because a'&rge majority of tho Republican members wero oppose^ to jt, and the Demo cratic vote forced it upon the party.. That amendment is intended to destroy tho strength of the party iu Georgia. It attempts to prohibit tho loyal government from deciding for itself what abftil and what shall not be done. It proposes to compel the now loyal State Senate to retain in office the very judges who decided that colored citizens had no rights ex cept the slave code in Georgia. It proposes to compel tho loyal party to retain in office men who have violated their oaths, deceived their party and tho country, and done !1 in their S >wcr to incite tho murderous ' ' ds of Kn ox to destroy the brave men who have fear lessly stood np for Congress and 0-3 right Men who have publicly prayed that too Loyal delegations who camo to Washington should “perish by tho wayside” are to be forced upon the Republican party in Georgia by act of Congress. Is it to be admitted that the Democrats in the House with a few Republicans, are better judges of what the loyal men and the Republi can party in Georgia require than are the loyal men and Republicans of that State? And who asks for this amendment? It is the some men, the same party that have con tinuously and persistently opposed reconstruc tion from tho beginning. The same class of men in Georgia ask it that lately supported Dent in Mississippi and Hamilton in Texas. yfe refused to listen to them in those States, and wo have a' great Repnblican triumph in both. Let ns refuse now in the cose of Geor gia, and we may safely count the Empire State of tho South for loyalty and peace-in the Pres idential contest of 1872. If, however, after the great struggle which has been mado by the Republicans ot Georgia, their advice is to be ignored, and Democratic appeals and Democratic votes sre to control the Repnblican Congress, we may class Geor gia with Tennessee. A Constitutional Conven tion will soon follow a rebel Legislators to be elected this summer, and then farewell to free schools, and also farewell to equal rights for the poor black man, for the Republican judi ciary will be remoddled on a Democratic basis. Tennessee could have boen saved if we had sustained onrfriond* Georgia will be lost if we do not Fortunately, the bill as amended, is yet to be considered in the Senate, and we hope that the unjust, nnwise, and unreasonable proviso winch is to cripple our frionds and aid onr en emies will be stricken out—Washington Chron- ids, 9th.

From the Washington Chronicle, 12th.] The Reconstruction of Georgli “Reconstruction, like the apples of Sodom, has turned to ashes, and next fall we shall elect a Legislature which shall redress the injustice and. misery which may be inflicted upon us.** Such is the language used by on influential Georgia journal, the Macon Telegraph, to ex press the glee of the Georgia Democracy over their anticipation of a heretofore unexpected opportunity to again oveHum the reconstruc tion measures of Congress. This unexpected opportunity is found in the Bingham amendment, which, by the aid of Democratic votes, was added to the Georgia bill in the House, compelling the now Repub lican Legislature of that State to dissolve be fore tho expiration of their constitutional tenn, and go into a new election without protection and without preparation. . It shonld be remembered that this shout of gladness comes from a Democratic journal, having perhaps the largest circulation in the State, and one that has violently opposed all thC reconstruction measures of Congress. Nor should it be forgotten that the paper is pub lished at Maoon, tho place where the officers of the State Agricultural Society refused to fly “ ^ American flag on the buildings loaned by i United States Government m which to :d the fair, because, as they said, “they unwilling to give any political significance to the fair.” This is the spirit, this is the party, and these are the men who favor the amendment. We print in another column the prayer of a few of those who oppose the amendment, which was yesterday presented to the Senate by the Senator from Mississippi. That elo quent and forcible appeal needs no additions from us. It is a ciy from the five hundred thousand citizens of the oppressed race in Georgia for justice, and it needs no prophet to foretell toat the cry will bo heard and be answered by the Senate and by the country. .-•This amendment to the Georgia bill, which, in opposition to the law, in opposition to the facts and to rights and justice, seeke to weak en the strength of onr friends and to help our enemies to power, we are confident will be stricken out by the Republican vote of the Senate, for we are not willing to believe that the contest for leadership, which it is said in duced Republicans in the House to vote with democrats for this unfortunate amendment, wul bo allowed to influence the Senate in favor of its adoption. * Aside from tho great principles involved, there is a great party responsibility in this case. If the bill, as amended in the House, is adopted, Georgia is foi^ver lost to Republican ism. If the amendment is stricken out, and the bill adopted as reported by the Reconstruc tion Committee, Georgia will poll her electoral vote for Republican candidates in 1872. And we must bear in mind that the colored men in States here in the North, who are' soon to beoome/votei»-by the promulgation of the fif- toenth * amoiwfcnont, will be watchful of the maimef'^tff'wmeh a Republican Senate treats are or may become redeemable or payablo, or to replace such coin as may have been used t purpose.* 3.

A person writes to the Boston Transcript, over the inital “ B ” as follows: Several years since an American lady of rare good nense and Christian attainment, went to Germany to seek health. On her wav home she went to England. Her position at home, her education and refinement of manner, en titled her to bo presented to the Fnglish sov ereign. To gratify her friends she went to St James, little thinking much pleasure was in store for her. As the Queen approached the lady she was attracted by her quiet and pos sessed manner, and by tho expression of uni versal charity of thought and deed which came like a benediction from the face of my friend to aU those who approached her. A few royal words of welcome were said, the Queen passed on, and Mrs thought her part in the pa geant was done. A little after the “ gentleman m waiting ’’ brou^ljt a request from the Queen The day aud hour haying beep nam®d, a car riage was sent to bring her The Queen and Frince Albert received her alone in the library. Her Majesty told her she had long wished for such an opportunity, and had ventured to ask this interview, that she might learn from an American lady more particulary concerning the inner home life a country so nearly allied to England and claim ing and fondly clinging to its old traditions and histories, and speaking the same language. She asked of the social relations as they man ifest themselves in the different grades of soci ety; of the observance of public worship; of the standing and influence exerted by the clergy in private life; of the estimation in which we hold our leamod literature and scientific men; of the religious training and education given by the mothers of the land to their children; how much they were intrusted by a certain class of. mothers to tho care of servants; what was the interest of people of the so-called higher classes evinced toward the servants in their employ, and of the education and train ing received by then*: of the iqteljectqal edu cation received and deemed essential, and of tho accomplishments usually attained by the young doughtere of the better classes; of the mingling of tho various grades, and by what rules society generally was governed. These and many other similar questions were asked and answered when the hour had passed, yet all the information the Queen and her hus band, Prince Albert, wished had not been given. A second interview was appointed, and Mrs. went again to the castle. At its close the Queen said, “Madam, my country and your § itiy Ote of pnp blood. Wfl are bound to- qt by traditions, by the past, and by like ss and aspirations. God grant thero be no indness between us;” then turning to her husband she added: u and there will never be, so long as we may avert it.” These inter views, sought by the Queen to learn from a true woman of the home life of the people so connected with her own land, tells us of a good woman, of a true Christian, whose interest goes out to benefit, if possible, all who speak the language of her own realm. I thought often in those dark days, when distrust and wrong came between these two great nations, of that sad and widowed soul—of the good Queen, and of the hour when, parting from Mrs. , she took her hand, then laying the other npoxx the arm of her husband, her supporter, her strength in her many trials and cares, said again, “There shall be no distrust bftijfeen mV country aqd yoqr country if we can avert it.*” Only one of that trio now lives. Prince Albert and the American lady have both possod away. Facctlra. A Buffalonian the other day rushed into the City Attorney’s office, and in a very excited manner said he wanted a warrant, 4 ‘Yfhat do you want V a^ked the plerk. i‘A ^arrant/’ repeated the ipan. SlWhat do you'want a war rant for?” inquired the clerk. “For scandal, air! scandal on the street 1” He was informed that scandal was unwarrantable in any case. “As to being conflicted with the gout,” said Mts. Partington, “high living don’t bring it on. It is incoherent in some families, and is handed down from father to son. Mr. Ham mer, poor soul, who has been so long ill with it, disinherits it from liis wife’s grandmother.” A contemporary of ours ppteeta most earn- estlytbafche is always as good as his word.

From the St. Joeeph (Missouri) Herald. Feb. 28.) Very many who have frequented the court house during the present session of the Circuit Court must have observed an elderly, quiet, gentlemanly person about the place, exhibit- ng a model of a newly patented hay press, the State rights of whioh he was engaged in sell ing. He did not make himself obnoxious by any offensive importunities, bnt when a party exhibited any interest in his machine he took especial pains to show its operations, and by a pleasing demeanor, made a number of sales. Since Friday last he had not been seen at the court-house, though nothing, of course, was thought strange of it About 10 o'clock yes terday morning, however, those who remrin hered the man were startled bjr a ruiLdr that ke was dead. The singularity in this ease is that the man died of excitement induced by his unexpected success in his vacation—tho sale of rights of his hay-press—he having disposed of the States of Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska, for which he had secured tide of three hundred and twenty acres of land in Nebraska, one hun dred and sixty acres of land in Kansas, and two Talu&ble lots in the city of Chicago, This was the successful closing np of what was, perhaps, laid out os a year's work in the course of three weeks; the final papers settling up the whole business were to nave been signed and delivered yesterday morning. Bnt on Sunday Mr. Bobertsoa was token sick, and all that day and through the night suffered from a brain fever, which terminated in his death at the hoar named. It is fairly presumed the excite ment consequent upon his success in business induced his sickness, as he was in perfect health on Saturday, and, being a man of tho most scrupulous temperance habits, congestion could not have ensued from a uso of intoxicat ing drinks. The judgement of all acquainted with tho facts ia that the man died from ex treme satisfaction. The fsthe; of Senator Benton lies ohsuerely buried in a j»eth of pines, four miles west of Hillsboro, North Carolina, whore, say* the Re corder, of that place, “the country people doily pass, and little regard that the fhther of one of the greatest statesmen of the conntry lies buried near." Ex-Governor Letcher, of Virginia, ho* pub lished a statement respecting the proposed monument to Stonewall Jackson, saying $50,- 000 is needed, and that no local or seotional viows restrict the scheme—that it is national in its design, and tho North has cordiaUy re sponded to tho appeal, and the East and the West are moving.

Perhaps no one medi cine is so universally required by every body as a cathartic, nor was ever any be fore so universally adopted into use, in every country and among all classes, as this nuld bnt efficient purgative Fill. The obvious reason is, that it is a more relia ble and for more ef fectual remedy than any other. Those who have triod it, know that it cured them; those who havo not, know that it cures their neighbors and fnends; and all know that what it does once it does al ways —that it never foils through any fault or neg- glcct of Its composition. We have thou sands upon thousands of certificates of dieir remarkable cures of tho following complaints, but such cures are known in every neighborhood, and wo need not publish them. Adapted to all ages and conditions m all climates; containing neither calomel nor any deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh, and makes them pleasant to take, whilo being purely vegetable, no harm C8« arise from their uso in any quantity. They operate by their powerful influence on tho Internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into healthy action—remove tho obstructions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their Irregular action tone&Ith, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de rangements as are the first origin of disease. Minute directions arc given in tho wrapper on the box, for the following complaints, which these Pill* rapidly cure;— For Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Klstleu* ness, Languor and Xk>ss of Appetite, they should bo taken moderately to stimulate the stom ach, and restore its healthy tone and action. For Idver Complaint and its various symp toms, Dillons Headache, Sick Head ache, Jaundice or Green Sickness, Dil lons Colic and Dilions Fevers, they should be judiciously taken for each case, to correct tho diseased action or remove the obstructions which cause it. For Dysentery or Diarrhoea, but one mild do so is generally required. For Rheumatism, Goat, Gravel, Pal pitation of the Heart.
