FOR OOOORNSS, SECOND DISTRICT,
HON. NELSON TIFT,
Os Ooughcriy family.
See elsewhere Ihe report of the
'Ueooostruotion Committee on the Gcor
igia oaso. It tpoaliß for itself. If the
word must to the worst, let it
come, no cvj t help it.
t&' Wo mast spolcigiso to our read
ers this weok for taking up so much
space with Legislative matter. We
thought everybody would desire to see
the concluding enactments of that body.
We regret not having space for
the letter of Gov. Bullock to the Re
construction Committee, in reply to one
from liJii. Nalaoo Tift, with Mr. Tift’s
rejoinder. Mr. TJts letters are unan
swerable.
Adjourned.
After a lengthy and cosily session, the
legislature has, at last, adjourned, and
the walls of Kimball’s Opera House,
which, but a few days since, resounded
with the voices of our law-makers, are
now quiet. To say that we are sorry on
this account, we cannot, but to say that
to adjourn was the best aot of tho whole
session, we will not. In an article some
weeks sinoo, we attempted to vindicate
the course of our Legislature, to that
juincipio we still cling, and would have
continued to do so, even though it bad
have bankrupt us. It has done too
much at which we rejoicoa-~too much j
to call forth our praise, to censure to
wards the last, in the bitter language
which somo editors have used, because
it was guilty of a little folly.
We have some fears, however, that
another Legislature, e. the old one,
will be convened on the heel of this—
such too, seems to be universally feared.
If it is called, if indeed the negroes are
placed back by force and against our
will, we can only implore Gabriel to
“sound bis trumpet.’’
If our Legislature, will, in future, use
% little more oconomy, both as to time
and monoy—if our oppressors will allow
the negroes, and this horrible piece of
oppression, the 15th amendment, to re
main where wo have placed them, wc
will ask do more.
I'ailioiiu Comity.
We had the pleasure of attending the
last session of the Superior Court in
Calhoun county, two days of last week.
But few members of the Bar were
present, and in consequence of their ab
sence, the largost portion of the busi
ness was passed over.
We found the planters at home at
tending to their farms —none at Court
exoept those who had business there,
and even they seemed to be impatient to
return to the corn-field and cotton-patcb.
The agricultural interest of the ooun
ty seems to be more particularly cared
for this year, than pt aDy time since the
war, and from the excellent order in
which the lands were prepared, the im
provement in houses, fences, &c , we
may safely Bay that the people of Cal
houn have gone to work with the deter
mination to overcome the adversity of
the present, to make themselves once
more independent, and leave for posteri
ty a country worth the name. We
heartily wish for the honest farmer, un
bounded success and prosperity.
To those who gave us a helping hand
and an encouraging word, wc return our
moat sincere thanks.
The Bill to Reconstruct Geor
gia.
We fiod the following in the Wes
tern Associated Press dispatches, tele
graphed from Washington on the 17th:
The first section of the amended bill
to enforce the fourteenth constitutional

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
Atlanta, Tuesday, March 16.
Sknatb —Mr. Harii* ontcred a pro
test or tbo part of fifteen Senators,
which they drs’red sprend on tho Jour
nal, It eop’ainod tboir sentiments iu
regard to the passago of the bill ex
tending State aid to tho Brunswick and
Albany Railroad Company.
The protest was ordered to be spread
on the minutes.
The first business in order was the
purchase of tho new Opera House, upon
which Mi. Hinton held the door, lie
thought it better not to consume the
timo of the Senate, as there was a great
pressure of busiuoss upon both Houses,
and he, therefore, moved to lay the mo
tion to reconsider on tho talde for the
present.
The Chair decided that a motion to
reconsider should be aoted on and could
not get any euob direction as that pro
posed by tho gentleman.
Mr. Uintou then proceeded to sustain
his motion of reconsideration. There
wero several features in connection with
the motion which he could not agreo
with. The simple proposition discussed,
yesterday, was that the house could be
bought for about $169,000, and there
was not one word said about furnishing
heating and lighting, which were in bis
opinion very important items. He
thought it folly to buy the place just
now and that it was time enough when
tho lime for which the city bad con -
tracted had expired to think of purchas.
iog auy place. The finances of the
State wore depleted, and this sorely
eould be time for such aotion. Ho hoped
they would avail themselves of the prop
osition of the city of Atlanta;
Mr. Candler agreed with tho Senator
in ono thing, and that was that further
discussioD was not noeossary.
Mr. Harris would like to aßk the
gentleman if they ought not to recon
sider, if for no other reason but the one
that the city had not furnished an Ex
ecutive Mansiou according to their
agreement.
Mr. Candler did not think that the
purchase contemplated would relieve
Atlanta from any obligation but the ten
years furnishing of the Capitol. The
Mayor of the city was hero, and he so
•understood it. He did not agree with
friend, M r , Hinton, in his views
upon the subjeol M purchase. The roa
son he assigned in oppopitiC. o was that
they had a capitol for ten years free oi
expense. There was ene thing certain
that at the end of that time they would
have to purchase one, and he was satis
fied that they could not then get a build
itig so cheap, and that they would have
to Duild a now one, which would, before
it was fit for use, co.-t millions. He
move! to lay the motion to reconsider
on the table.
The )eas and nays were called, whon
thoy stood yeas 19—nays 17.
The motion prevailed.
Mr. Burns moved a reconsideration
of the bill bringing about a sctilomeut
between tho late and present State
Treasurers, and sustained his motion in
some pithy remarks.
Mr. Leultr spuku iu favor of recoil
side ration.
Mr. Harris moved to lay the motion
on the table.
On the motion of Mr. Harris the yeas
and nays were called aud stood, yeas 16,
nays 16.
The casting vote of the President in
the affirmative, laid the motion to recon
sider on tLe table.
The special order being the reconsid
eration of the action of the Senate on
the fifteenth amendment to the (''insti
tution of the United States, Mr. Hung
erford moved that it be taken up. He
wanted to sec men come up like men
and either pass it or vote it down, lie
wessont here by his party to urge its
passage upon the Legislature aud he
did uot waut to dodge, and ho was sat
isfied there were many others who would
do the same if they did their dutyi
Mr. Smith, of the 36th, rose to a point
of order, inasmuch as tbo special order
of the day had been discharged.
The Chair decided the Senator in or
der iu arguing whether the special order
should be taken up or not.
Mr. Hungerford said ho saw a dispo
sition on the part of gentlemen to dodge
the question in every conocivable man
ner, and he moved to make it the spec
ial order for next Christmas.
Mr. Bums amended by making it
25th day of January, 1870, which was
withdrawn.
Mr. Griffin (21st) moved to amend
by appropriating per diem and mileage
for the members to corno to Atlanta at
that time. Not in order. The yeae
and nays wero called, when they stood
yeas, 12—nays, 18. The motion was
lost.
Mr. Merrcll moved to postpone until
to-morrow at 3 p. m., which was passed
by a vote of yeas, 17—-cays, 3.
A bill establishing criminal courts in
the several counties of the State was ta
ken up, and a committee of eoDforcnce
was appointed to confer with the House,
that body haviug adhered to an amend
ment struck out by the Senate. The
committee of conference were Gritlin,
(21st) Holcombe and McWhorter.
The following bills wore passed .-
A bill to incorporate the Georgia Life
Insurance Company.
A bill incorporating tho town of King
ston;
A bill exempting from taxation, for
five years, all foreign and domestic capi
tal invested in the manufacture of cot
ton, wool or other fibrous material, etc.,
was under discussiou, when the hour of
adjournment arrived.
The Senate adjourned.
Atlanta, March 17.
Senate. —The Senate to-day took up
the Fifteenth Amendment. A motion
to indefinitely postpone it resulted in a
tie vote of 17 to 17. Benjamin F. Con
ley, tho Republican President of the
Georgia Senate, having the easting vote,
voted yea, thus indefinitely postponing,
and virtually defeating, tho adoption of
the Fifteenth Auirodinent in Georgia.
Gov. Builock to-day issued an Ex
ecutive order, setting forth that he has
received information of the voluntary
absenting of n large number of mem
bers of the of Representatives,
in order to prevent a quorum, nnd that
as no appropriation bill for the year
1809 has yet been perfected or sub
mitted to him, it is ordered that no
money shall bo paid to members on
account of per diem or mileage, until
an appropriation bill is perfected, sub
mitted to him and receives his appro
val.
Atlanta, March 18.

tion on the 15th article.

EVENING SEBSION.
House. —The fifteenth amendment
being the special order, it was taken
up.
Mr. Ellis of Spaulding offered a res
olution to the effect that the amend
ment be ratified by the Legislature of
the State of Georgia.
Mr. Harrison offered a resolution
prohibiting any member from absent
ing himself from tho House until tbe
amendment was acted on.
The Chair thought the resolution
out of order. He did not see how it
could be carried out.
Mr. Harper of Terrell, was going to
do just as he pleased, and so loDgas a
quorum was preset)', members could
not be forced to a vote.
Mr Scott wanted every momber to
vote on the important question.
Mr. Harrison withdrew his motion
as be saw that men were inclined to
dodge the matter.
Mr. Ellis proceeded to support his
resolution.
Mr. Soott rose to a point of order.
He showed that the amendment could
not be before the House this evening.
The Chair decided the amendment
properly before the House.
Mr. Soott appealed from the deci
sion of the Chair, knowing at the same
tune that he could not do so with any
success.
The decision of the Chair was sus
tained.
Mr. Grimes spoke very earnestly
against the passago of the amendment
on the ground that it was in opposi
tion to the principle of ids party and
would lead to a subversion of the sow
rights which yet remained to tho State.
When that amendment was adopted
the fate of Georgia was fixed forever
and tbo liberties of the past would only
exist in the memorise and the minds of
men. lie trusted for the sake of honor f
of patriotism that tho Democrats of
Georgia would pause and think well;
before they voted for tho (amendment
Mr. O’Neil branded the conduct of
the Democracy as sycophantic, and it
bad not the true ring of Democracy
about it. He was glad they were in
such a | oaition that they had to come
up and swallow tbo thing whether
they liked it or not.
Mr. Harper, of Terrell, supported
the amendment.
Mr. Shumate, contended that the
amendment did not confer the tight to
hold office. He would vote for it be
cause he believed it was tbe best thing
be could do, and because be knew it
was a trick of the Republicans not to
vote for it.
Mr Anderson supported it because
by doing so thoy made themselves
masters of the situation.
Mr. Rawles said it was the Radical
party that bad forced negro suffrage
' upon us, and they (the Democrats)
were going to turn it back upon them,
and he appealod to the negroes North
to take their stand side by side with
Spoon Butler. He thought, after hav
ing voted for the amendment and
against its reconsideration, he would
not say another word ; but the duty of
a faithful Representative did not stop
I there. He kDew there were many
j many members going to vote “no,”
who wpuld be very glad to see it pass,
j but they were afraid of old leaders and
newspaper editors.
1 Mr. Tweedy said the Democrats had
I no right to say that the Radical party
i was opposed to the amendment. They
! were pledged to it, but they wero go-
I ing to vote for it in their own way.
| Mr. Morgan said he would not be
doing justice to himself if he did not
raise his voice agaiustthe amendment.
He asserted that the right to vote car
ried with it the right to hold office, and
that had been decided by some of tbe
ablest lawyers the country ever bad.
Mr. Philips regarded this as one of
the most solemn events of his file.
As he approached the Capitol that
evening he saw tbe stars aDd stripos
floating in the breeze. He was taught
bj bis father to houer them, and in
consequence of those teachings he op
posed secession He spurned the Con
stitution of the country and paid alle
giance to that flag. But he was asked
to give up the rights of the States and
to destroy that flag. Ho was asked
to destroy that flag and to disregard
the teachings of his fathers. Tho Con
stitution of the country was over
thrown, and he was sorry that the peo
ple of the South were willing to assist
'll it. TTiir ra did this feeling come
from to dernocfSiß. originated in a
radical caucus. The gentletrTn from
Richmond had told the trutn. They'J
desired the democratic party to sup
port the cause. They wanted to split
that party.
Mr Scott—l solemnly protest against
the forcible aud fraudulent manner in
which this question is thrust upon tbo
llouso. The resolution was not be
fore the House properly; He object
ed to the resolution because it was a
surrender of hie manhood—because it
divested the State of its dearest rights '
—bacifhst -k-leads to consolidation—
because it is an acknowledgment that i
there was no Stato rights—because it I
would culminate in the sentiment, that
liberty was but the analysis of tbo
blood of tho brain—because it was a I
degradation—because it was an ever
lasting infamy on Georgia—because j
there was mo need for haste—because
Democrats came up there and callod j
on tho Governor to aid them—becau e
it was a trap set by the Radical party i
who intended to clench the nail—you
voted for universal suffrage. They say ;
to us, you voted to put it in the Con- j
stitution.
Mr Osgood called the previous ques
tion.
A division was called when the
votes stood, yoas 48 ; nays 53. Tbe
call for the previous question was lost.
Mr Warren—He was sorry that he
and his Democratic friends with whom
he had so harmoniously worked, should
differ now. By accepting the present
amendment they not only yielded ne
gro suffrage, but they surrendered
every right which belonged to a State
The fourteenth article had been thrust
upon tbe people as a finality, which
one which, if we do not adopt,
we thrown back again into a
territory.
Mr Park, of Greene, supported the
adoption of tbe amendment. He did
not tbiok it a surrender of either man
hood or privileges.
Mr Bmith, of Coffee, called the pre
vious question.
The yeas and nays were called on
the passing of the resolution of Mr
Ellis, of Spalding.
Mr Scott rose to a point ot order in
behalf oi several members who en ered
tboir protest that the Speaker had de
cided the vote without being notified.
Tho roll was then called and veri
fied, and the following is the vote :
Yeas—Anderson, Ayro, Belcher,
Botbune, Brasseil, Brewster, Carpen
ter of Hancock, Carson, Chambers,
Clarke, Gloud, Glower, Cunningham,

er, Wilcox, Wilson—s 2.
Several points of order were raisod
by Mr Scott, Phillips and others, one
of which was that the amendment bad
been declared passed before tbe vote
bud been verified.
Mr Harper, of Terrell, was in the
Chair and he being in favor of the pas
sage of the resolution did business in
a high-handed manner only allowing
privileges- to those who agreed with
him and rapping down every opponent
ol tho measuie. The fact that the
amendment had been announced by
him ns adopted arose from his eager
ness to cut off any opportunity which
might give members a chance of chang
ing their votes, and even Air. Mc-
Whorter, the Speaker elect, declares
now that it was only on the adoption
of the resolution which was nothing
more than a substitute to another res
olution by tho same gentlemen, that
the vote was taken and that the
amendment has not yet been voted on.
But the fiat of the Chair has gone
forth and it only remains now for tho
lovers of justice to protest against such
conduct.
The House adjourned.
