Below we publish substantially the speech of Senator NdnnaHy, delivered on Friday, on the proposition to pur chase the Kimball Opera House for a State Capitol. The synopsis given by the Son Saturday morning was inac curate in some particulars and a fuller synopsis is given in order that Mr. Nunnwify’s position may be under- It seems to have become a custom ' with some gentlemen, no matter what question, or how important it is, to bring in all the outside issues that can be brought into the disoussion of a but particularly for the lobbies and gal lery. He haa toe gentleman from the 84th, Mr. Candler, upon this question, during the session of 1869, and the speech then was one of the best he had heard for the purchase of this building as a Capitol; and now, that the gentlemen hod made an able argu ■ ment against its purchase, if he has not convinced him that the Capitol ought not to be purchased, he certain ly has convinced him that he could make a good speech upon either side of the question. It seems to matter but little, upon which side he was. But Mr. President, I propose to deal with this question os its importance demands. As it is conceded by all that the Capitol is a fixed fact, as to its location in Atlanta, it is not necessary that I should make an argument to show that it is not only improbable, but impossible to remove the Capitol to MUledgeville. It was not only lo cated by the Convention of 1867, but the acts of the Convention were rati fied by a large majority of the people of the State. Passing from this ques tion, we come immediately to the main question before the Senate, that is, the purchase of this building for the Cap itol. What is the proposition made by your committee in their resolutions ? Ist, that the city of Atlanta hod made a proposition to the Constitutional Convention, in view of the fact that the Convention would locate the Cap itol in the city of Atlanta, that the city would arrange for a Capitol for ten years, free of cost, and ten acres of land in the city, upon which to build a Capitol. That Atlanta has fully com plied with her oontraet cannot be de nied, and for two sessions your Leg islature has had the benefits of herlib- entity. lathis connection it has been con tended by some that it was the duty of Atlanta to also famish the Capitol suitable furniture; bat of this then was and is now a difference of oyinion and the Governor saw proper to advance fifty-four thousand, five dol lars, to the Messrs Kimball, the par ties with whom the city of Atlanta had contracted for the Kimball Opera House, but which at that time was in an unfinished condition; and the Sen ator from the 84th District, although owning property in Atlanta and hav ing his law office hen, ought to have known better than to have called it an old patched up concern. It was fin ished for the purposes of a Capitol, and its finish from cellar to garret is as complete for a Capitol as any build ing I have ever semi in any of the Sou thern States. It is as well arranged as the Capitol at Nashville, if not bet ter in many respects, though the lat ter cost the State of Tennessee three million dollars; and the only differ ence is that the latter is of stone and this of brick. Some Senators have sud denly become alarmed for fear of the building falling down, and point us to a crack in the plastering, which they are pleased to call a breach in the walL It is strange that some of these Sena tors connofc tell the difference between a crack in the plastering and one in the wall. But to return, this* fifty-four thous and and five hundred dollars was ap* propriated to purohase the necessary furniture for the Capitol, and whilst there is a difference of opinion as to who is indebted for this furniture, it is certain that the Legislature took pos session of the building with the furni ture as purchased by the Governor, wit have need the aame tor nearly two years; and are wa not bound by tak ing possession of the same to pay its this purchase in order to ‘save the ft the State is not liable for it, the parties are fully able torpay the same. But this argument is outside of the present question. The question is, shall we purchase this building at the price, as has been reoommeded by your committee ? Vow to the figures, and hero I wish the attention of Senator* This building is ofiered for SBBO,OOO, ijp^^hadto not vote for its purchase. But here do we find in thn, as m all other eases, the city of Atlanta adds another lau rel to her already well’ earned reputa tion for the Überahty and indomitable perseverance of her people. The City Council propose to pay of .this amount $130,000. Add to this the amount $76,- 000 for which the State will be bound for the furniture, and yon have two hundred and six thousand dollars to deduct from the SBBO,OOO, and the Cap ital without the fnrniture will hove oost you a little over one hundred and sev enty-four thousand dollars. Then as a financial mote either to the individ uals or to th® State, is it not wise to purchase this property which is worth at th# lowest calculation $300,- 000 ? It is "true that the State will give her bondar for two hundred and fifty thousand dollars which will run for twenty years, but of this amount $76,- 000 the State owes for furniture, which leaves the amount $174,000. If it be true that the State is not bound for this $76,000 expended for furniture, then the State gets this property for $250,000 and there is no man who will not say the property is fully worth the amount It will be see mat by this purchase, your bonds do not mature under twenty years, and daring this time, if rents oontinaeasthey now are, Se rent of the various offices and sement for which the State has no use, the handsome sum of twelve or fourteen thousand dollars is realized for rents. Suppose that you decline this con tract, Atlanta gives the use of this building for eight years longer. You use it without cost, the rent consumes the $130,000 which Atlanta proposes to give, and at the expiration of the eight years you are without a Capitol. And if you undertake to build, as some seem to desire, it will cost the State at least three million dollars. If you ac cept the offer, you have a Capitol for fifty years or more, which not only an swers the purposes of a Capitol, but is well adapted few the use, as an orna ment to the city, and reflects credit upon the contractors, who have spared no pains or money in fitting it for State purposes. But, says the Senator from the 84th, Mr. Candler, your treasury is exhaus ted, and my oiend from the 42d, Mr. Burns, says your railroad is paying nothing into the Treasury, and there fore, you most wait Yes wait and bnild a Capitol costing the States3,ooo,- 000; tax the people to pay it, and when yon have built, you nave a Cap itol not as well fitted for the purpose as the present one. No, Mr. Presi dent, let os deal with this question as sensible men consulting the best inter est of the people, and not look to out side pressure, which we may be promp ted to oppose for selfish purposes. The gentleman from the 34th says he has some property in the city, and he may desire to bnild the Capitol on or near his property to enhance its value. Ido not say he so desires, but I learn there are persons opposing the purchase of this building for that rea son, and I know of no one in the city of Atlanta who opposes it, except sum as those and others who have bad feel ing toward the owners of the property. I think, Mr. President, that as a mat ter of financial interest to the State, this Senate should not hesitate to adopt the report of the committee. My attention is called to the objec tion offered by the gentleman from the 21st, who says there are but two win dows in it, and it is not well ventilated. I would say to my friend, who claims to be from the piney woods and says it frightens him to talk up here among the whites; but if he was down there he would not be afraid to meet any of them on the question; that I am satisfied this morning, when fanning his speech, he was badly frightened not to see more than two windows in this room. We see by the seat of the gentlemen two very large windows, and on the other side of the Presi den’s desk two more, and, also, above are six large windows. Mr. Griffin, those six windows are exclusively for the colored people. Certainly you’ll not find fault of ac commodations for colored men. You who have been a leader in granting them bo many privileges, making them equal with yourself, will not deprive them of the air and tight of heaven, which God has given them. Mr. President, I have said more per haps, than was necessary, and as I have yielded the floor to every gentle man who desired to speak on the oth er tide, and having been requested to do so, I call tiie previous question. The Capitol Question. This matter comes np as the special order of the Senate this morning, and we hopeit wiß be settled to-day. Some of the. opponents of tiuameasatre affirm that the building is notsafe, etc. Those who saw the foundations and walla of this building when it was erected know how absurd all such statements are.— The certificate of Messrs. Healey, Ber ry & Cos., J. C. Peck, Corput & Pay, architects, which were given to the committee, i assert very plainly that thorn is no safer or stronger building in the State. ;11 There are it is true a few small cracks caused by tho shrinking of wood partitions. But there is not a building hi town that has lees in pro- The Past is Past; Let mm watch the Present and th© Future. portion to its size. In regard to the pri<je of the building, wa are assured by members of the City Council who investigated the whole matter, that the price of the property wifi not yield a profit to the owner anything like as much as they bought the property less than it originally cost. Tho proposi tion toseUfor SBBO,OOO in bonds, which are only worth in cash $315,000, de duct from this the actual oost of the furniture and fixtures; $76,871 54, and it leaves the property at $238,188 46. The original owners spent over SBB,- 000, ana bad only juet started the work, and Mr. Kimball has expended on the building over $170,000 cash. So that the profits will pot exceed $20,000 or $25,000, not counting anything for itf tereet or time. Sorely no say that this is too milch. The City Council ascer tained that the above statement was trod, t^ Mr. Kimball bought the property at a time when no one else would. He took a great risk and is snrelv entitled to the difference in the actual oost of the property mid the amount be paid for it Besides, this property lias largely increased in value and will continue to do so for many years to oome. And the rents from that portion of the building not used for State purpo ses, will pay the interest on the bonds asked'from the State. Let all parties who are favorable to the capitol remaining in Atlanta, unite and settle the dispute.—Constitution, sth insb Mb. Davis m Chattanooga.— The New York Tribune reports Mr. Davis’ speech at Chattanooga thus: Washington, August I.— Jeff Davis was last week at Lookout Mountain, his first visit since, as President of the Confederacy, he went up with Bragg to look at Glen. Bosecranze army in the plain below. On returning to Chatta nooga he was serenaded. When he appeared he was introduced as the Hon. Jefferson Davis, and spoke as fol lows: * My Friends —lt affects me from the bottom of my heart to receive this de monstration of your kindly fooling to ward me. I had retired, in a double sense, the night and from public blame me for my detoißunatibn to let those who have power dictate how the inshore Uto soU Lookmg for ward to the future, I can see nothing the part of brave men to brood over the sorrows of the past, but rather to look forward with bright hopes for the future. You have as brave and high minded a people as can be found, and as noble women as live on earth, and I wish yon all the happiness and pros perity that is in human life to enjoy. Again I thank you for this manifesta tion of your kindness. Thk Rural Carolinian for August. —The present number of this sterl ing agricultural monthly contains two illustrated artides, either one of which is worth the whole year’s sub scription. The first to which we allude is a sketch of the life of the late Wil liam Gilmore Simms, one of its earliest and ablest contributors, accompanied by the truest likeness of that great Southern author that has yet been given to the pubtio. Mr. Simms was a practical planter and devoted to coun try life, and it is singularly appropriate that this tribute to his memory should appear in The Rural Carolinian, whose Ees, in the last days of his life, he adorned and enriched with the ripest fruits of his varied genius. The second article alluded to is that on the cotton caterpillar, being an ex haustive treatise on that subject from the pen of Dr. Phares, of Woodville, Miss. The thorough practical as well scientific knowledge of his subject evinced by the writer, entitle his opin ions to the highest respect, anti render his exposure of popular fallacies, and his suggestions of the proper way of dealing with these insects, invaluable to every cultivator of the great South ern staple. The article is accompanied by several wood cuts, and also by a colored illustration of the caterpillars at work upon the plant in their various stages of existence. This illustration in executed in the highest style of the chromatic art, and enables the reader to recognize the insects at a glance, and thus more fully comprehend the ideas advanced by the writer. Beaded these principal articles, there are the usual number of valuable con tributions in regard to all the various branches of agriculture and horticul ture, well prepared digests of reports of tiie crops from all parts of the State, and careful editorial selections of all the agricultural news of the day.

Some of these speci mens are impregnated with iron. 8. Tho following letter la upon a subject of anoh general Interest as to justify publication. It waa filed in this offioe by Judge Esssrd: Lawxkmckyillx, June 29, 1870. Mon, William Board, Mayor: Dks» But—-President Orr informed me last week that ba had a letter from 001. Lewis, Inquiring wheth er he knew of any considerable quantity of pyrites on or near the line of any railroad In Georgia. OoL L. says our manutoetnrers of Fertilisers wish to prepare their own sulphur if they can procure the pyrites. Both copper and iron pyrites exist in any desirable quantities in the gold rains within one and a half miles of Sugar Hill, and south of that plaoe on the Air-Line Railroad. I suppose many tons of the finest variety could be picked up among toe rub blah on toe top of tho grouud. It forms a large proportion of toe ground which protects the rains of the gold leaving' quarts on either aids. If the company, to which 001. L. 'alludes, will establish a depot at Sugar wn( they will have no occasion to tend abroad for Sulphur Ido not know where Col. Lewis is at present, and therefore communicate this information to you you may let all parties concerned know the foots. I am truly yours, Jas. p. SnatDMs. 4. An appeal Is made to the liberality of the Fnss of the State to send their papers regularly to this office regularly without oharge. The object of the request is manifold. This offloe has and will have thousands of documents and circulars, etc., to issue. With fresh Issues dally and weekly of the Press spread oat upon oar tables, we will have at one view the names of per haps twenty thousand business men in every depart ment of industry, to whom we out send onr doom meats. Again, the Library and Museum attached to the offloe are dally increasing in interest and impor tance. The contributions of tho mars of the Sfcte will greatly add to this Interest and will make the rooms of the Society a most attractive resort to mem bers and visitors from a distanoe while in the city— Assurance la given to all publishers and editors who will comply with this request, and their <n«««ban nev er be taken from the Library, and shall, alter having answered the Immediate wants of the offloe, become permanent flies and preserved for referenoe and for historical and statistical inquiries for which they win be more and more valuable with the tspseof time. #. Delegates and members, and visitors to the con veution are urged to consider if they cannot briiw with them a few preoloua atones oc other valuable con tributions to the museum. If each detititio should bring with him the mosOourioas and interesting spec imens, whether mineral, lossti, earth, plant or other Object in natural Mtiwy.lt woajd present at once a moat interacting spectacle in itself and perhaps the htgheti evidence of the great variety ofsoti. vegeta tion. climate, and the varied productive oapeeity of the State. 6.
