Paragraph two is thp same in ; effect as the same paragraph in the Constitution of 1986. Paragraph thrtfe provides fication of United States citizenship of fif teen years, and in the State of ten yeoijfi*. The only change in the fourth paragraph is by adding. “The General-Assembly shall have power to provide, by law, for filling unexpired terms by a special, election” Section five is unaltered. . Paragraph 1 of section It ts MH&i'angea.' Paragraph two reads, “He *h:tH iTave’power to grant reprieves and pardons, to commute penalties, and to remit any’part of a setir tence for offenses against the State, except; in cases of impeachment*” Paragraph 3 is changed by substituting the word “Ppnr- inonwealth” for “Republic.” Paragrophf 4. a, 6. 7, 8 and 9 are unchanged, and para-* graph 10, only to allow the Legislature to grant the Governor privilege to appoint more than two secretaries. 1ST The Commit^ 0 f the Whole, *td- day, had up an impOruuit question-'-the amendment of the Bill o!

The Convention met at regular hour. ^Prayer by the Chaplain. Journal read and approved. e , , Mr. AKERMAN moved a reconsidera tion of the vote of yesterday in adopting tne" report of the Committee on Relief. The avowfed purpose of those fcbo brought this matter before the Convention was to yquiet apprehensions as to the coorse this Convention would pursue in reference to ,toe public debt. The action taken would . have the contrary effect. I fit was the in tention of the Delegates to preserve the <Sith of the State, let it be expressed un mistakably, He would offer an amend ment providing that all bonds issued, and indebtedness incurred, since 1865 should he recogwized and paid in good faith. Mr. SHROPSIIIBR opposed,reconsider ation. The administration of affairs may have been extravagant—he had heard it asserted that such was the fact. He only wanted to express the opinion of the Con vention that no action would he taken by ^this Convention interfering with the public indebtedness referred to. The Leg islature could decide upon such questions hereafter. Mr. CALDWELL favored the reference to the Legislature. Mr. CALDWELL, from the Committee on Education] made a report, which was lead apd ordered to be printed. Mr. BEDFORD thought the amendment of Mr. Akerfnnn was -too sweeping. He vyas opposed to State repudiation—and when it was ascertained what indebted ness had been legally contracted, no dele gate would go further than himself in sup porting the faith of the State. Mr. DUNNING thought It was natural that discredit should exist, with reference to public indebtedness. Day after day propositions for relief had been introduced. Public creditors were justified in having fears. Public repudiation would be but the crowning act of the movement to re pudiate private debts. He was opposed to any action that “Would Impair credit. The motion to reconsider prevailed, when the whole matter was laid on the table. : Mr.‘MARTIN, of Habersham, offered the following: Resolved, That Mai. Gen. Meade be re quested to order the Treasurer of Georgia to deposit in the hands of N. L. Angier,the • i ‘ ' Op-" ET the chicanery of the law had often pressed honeft debtors. Mr. CLIFi? movedto amend by striking out the words “except for fraud or”—so that the aectioW would read—“There shall be no imprisonment for debt, when the debtor resides beyond the limits of the 9ta|e, of I» about to remote ttyerefroifo” Mrr BRYANT favored the original LAST NIGHT'S DISPATCH Congressional.

The Constitutionality ok the Recon struction Acts.—Speaking of tlie. rumor relative to an expected decision of tlie Sir preme Court involving the Constitutional ity of the Reconstruction Acts, the Wash ington correspondent of the New York Times says: ;• A careful inquiry into alj tlie facts au-i thorizes the statement that no sucii deci sion need be anticipated for some 'time to come. But the statement concerning the status ot the Court on tlrts question derives considerable significance in the JigUt of recent developments. It will be remem bered that last summer the Court deckled adversely in the Sharkey injunction ease, and announced that the opinion at length would be given thereafter. Chief Justice Chase wrote the opinion denying tlie prayer of the petitioner, basing its rejection Ob the broad ground of the constitutionality of the Reconstruction acts of Congress. On con sultation the Sudges declined to accept this ground for the rejection of the petition, by a vote of three in favor to five against. And then it was agreed that the petition should be rejected on the legal grounds which were given in the Georgia case, want of orginal jurisdiction, and this is I believe a correct statement of the case. • .’■If 4 Mr. Staxherky’s Opinion.,—Li a recent speech Attorney General Stnnberry sjilj]: - Gentlemen, I have been at the liar, for nearly half a century, ami have been a constant student, not only of common law. but of our own Constitutional law, and I do not hesitate to say that* the whole of these reconstruction acts of Congress, from beginning to end. first, seeond and tlrird in the series, are unconstitutional and void.

Motion agreed to, when the follow ing resolution was offered and adopted : Resolved, That the delegates of the peo- S le of Georgia, in Convention assembled, o request toe Major General Commanding to have examined, all the jails and other prisons, and have released therefrom all persons unlawfully deprived of their liber ties. And all persons tried ex parte, the right of appeal denied, and bail refused, in violation of me constitution and laws ot the United States, and the State of Georgia Mr. TRAMMELL, from the Committee yn Privileges and Elections, made a report witli reference to the right of Mr. Ander son, of Houston, to a seat. The report states that Mr. A. was one of the Registrars in the 23d District,had served as one of the managers, and made out the returns sent rip; therefore he was not eligible. The re port was laid on the table. Mr. RICUARDSON moved to suspend the regular order to take up the report of the Committee on Bill of Rights. Agreed to, and the report was referred to the Com mittee of the Whole. Ou motion, it was ordered that in consid ering the report it should be considered section by soction. Mr. WADDELL moved as a substitute to the preamble the preamble adopted by the Convention of 1866. A long discussion ensued, and a mimlier of substitutes and amendments were offer ed^ On motion, all the substitutes except that of Mr. Waddell were laid upon the table, and the preamble of the Convention of 1865 was adopted unanimously. Mr. CLIFT moved to amend the report by adopting the caption, so that the word “preamble” should precede the preamble adopted, and that the words “Constitution of the State of Georgia,” should follow the preamble. Agreed to. The committee proceeded to consider the Declaration of Rights. Mr. WHITELY and Mr. HIGBEE moved substitutes for the first and second sections, which were laid on the table. Mr.- AKERMAN moved to amend the report by adopting the following in lieu of Sections 1 and 2, by inserting the follow ing, which was agreed to: Sec. 1. Protection to person and proper ty is the paramount duty of government, and shall be impartial and complete.

Richmond, Jan. 14.—In Convention an article was adopted in the Constitution de claring that Virginia shall forever remain in die Union, and pledging her to resist all efforts to break it up. Also, an article that slavery in the State is forever abolished a resolution from the Republican side inviting General Butler to address the Con vention, was adopted Another from the Conservatives, inviting Gen. Wise was offered. At this point a Republican moved to re consider the vote inviting Butler, and pending the discussion, and amid motions to adjourn. Butler entered the door, and shortly the Conservative members left the hall in a body with one or two Republicans who had opposed the invitation offered. Gen, Butler** Views. Butler in his speech said there should be as few changes in the Constitution as pos sible, as few disfranchisements and as few test oaths with reference to disfranchise ments. He thought it should apply to con trolling officers of corporations, railroads, etc^ the legislature to have power to re move those disabilities upon proof of loyalty. The tax on education should be laid on persons and other taxes should be borne by property and persons alike. He urged the Convention to get through their work soon. Suffrage could not be taken from men after it had been granted, but the Legislature might hereafter, as an incentive to education, confer it only upon those who could read and write.
