ATLANTA, GA,:::::::: FEBRUARY 1. FOUR O’CLOCK,P.M. Too Late.—The common Icntlon of “ Georgia,” vu handed in too late for publication to-day. If not withdrawn, it will appear Monday erening. BT Thanks are dne the officers of the Georgia, Augusta and Macon, Atlanta and W eat Point, Maoon and Western, Western and Atlantic and Mississippi and Tennes see Railroads, for favors extended to this office. The Convention.—We have heretofore alluded to the complaints uttered because of the slow progress made by the Conven tion, and must again repeat that what has seemed delay has been unavoidable. The reason is manifest to all who have witness ed the daily proceedings, and are at all familiar with the effect of rules in control ling the action of deliberative bodies. The majority of the Convention made a mistake in the outset by consenting to the adoption of a set of old rules under the operation of which, the strength of a large working majority is helpless to dis patch business. Neither is that majority large enough to change the rales, under thoir own provisions. Several attempts have been made to do this, but failed. As it is, the minority can protract a vote as long as they desire, by means, in which parliametarians are posted, and the raa- jorty should be held blameless. If all would address themselves to the work that is bound to be accomplished sooner or later, a few days session would suffice, but unless this is done the body may remain several weeks at work. Georgia state convention. THIRTY-FOURTH PAT. [axroKTKD ixrxiasrr foe th* dah,t orixios.l N V ,8aTC*DaT, 1, 1869. Convention met at the regular hour. Prayer by the Chaplain. Journal read and approved. Mr. MARTIN moved to suspend the rules to allow the introduction of a report from the Committee on the Loan Resolu tion. The motion was sustained, and the select committee made following report: The Constitutional Convention of the State of Georgia, presents to tiie Congress of the United States the following considerations: A loan by the United States Government to the impoverished planters of the South of a reasonable amount of United States curroncy for agricultural purposes, prop erly guarded by mortgages and equitably distributed among thy most needy, would be of incalculable advantage to the whole country. Such a loan w ould restore the produc tions of the South and. give a market for the goods of the North and the produce of the West. It would at once energise the South in an honorable, attempt to compete with England, *our rival in cotton raising, and return with interest a full payment for all her seal in fostering our late troubles, in drder that she might establish her selfish policy of producing cotton in the State to the injury of our Cotton States, and there by take commanding control of what has been the great source of our commercial prosperity as a people. Mortgages on real officer have jurisdiction to enforce any nent or execution, rendered upon any such contract or agreement, or for dam ages on account oj any such wrong or in jury ; au$l in case any salt shall be brought, or pending upon any such supposed cause of action against any inhabitant of this State, it shall be dismissed by the court upon a plea to the jurisdiction filed by the defendant, and upon proof that the cause of action originated prior to June 1,1865. Provided, That no such plea shall be sus- Thk Session this Morning.—The early session of to-day was occupied in a warm discussion upon the resolutions in relation to obtaining a National Loan from the Government for the benefit of the planters of the State. Some preliminary remarks— wo hope unguardedly made—from Mr. C.C Richardson, aroused an intensity of feeling seldom witnessed in a deliberative body Ills intemperate remarks were ably re- btikcd by several gentlemen — among whom were Messrs. Blount, Harris of New ton, and Bryant of Richmond. The re marks of the latter gentlemen—a Northern man—exhibited a magnanimity, in com parison with (hose of Mr. Richardson,tbat aroused a general response in the breast ot every noble-minded delegate in the Con reation. Mr. Costin (colored), also re buked the illiberal spirit that bad been manifested, and the almost unanimous vote of the Convention upon the question was a gratifying evidence of the disposi tion of the large body of the delegates, wi bout regard to-race, to bury the ani mosities and differences of the past. wbom tee jnrw' tori associated p. ^XIQHT>& DISPA 1EH Congressional. Washington, Jan. 81—£enate.—The Ohio withdrawal of assent to the amend ment treated a senation. Mr. Johnson Stubborn. — The announcement that Gov. Jenkins has instituted legal proceed ings against Gen. Msadk, in relation to the funds of the State, has taken nobody by surprise. It was expected and is only an incident in the great programme to retard the work of Reconstruction, which the fos sil politicians of the State w ere incubating throughout the summer, and finally hatch ed at the Macon Convention. The people of Georgia have ceased to an ticipate aid from their old leaders, in the work of getting back into the Union. This is evident from the fact that they are cast ing about for new men to inaugurate the new measures. The dominant party in the late election is not disposed to act hastily in preparing for the next, and will not, we trust, be led to do so. The fitness of candi dates should be the primary consideration, and discrimination govern the selection. If these rules obtain, all will be well. Akrkstxd.—We learn that the Sheriff and Coroner of Jasper county have both been arrested and are now confined in the guard house in this city. The arrests were made, it is stated, in consequence of Sheriff Digby allowing the murderer of a negro woman to escape without making any at tempt to arrest, and the Coroner for failing to discharge his duty when the inquest was held. The ignorance and irresponsi bility of the latter may secure his release without much delay, as efforts are being made in that direction. As a citizen and officer, Mr. Digby has always stood high, and his many friends regret that anything should have occurred to cause him trouble Arrrst and PaROLh of Mr. Jonhs.—The Macon Telegraph of yesterday learns that Treasurer Jones’ parole has been ex tended to the first day of July next. The same p per says: “Nr!'her the books of Treasurer Jones nor Comptroller Burnes have been found. They have been placed beyond the reach of Oen. Meade and his officers.” Hkadq'ra.

No man need borrow more than two- thirds of what he can give good assurances will be the value of his coming crop. The people oi the South need relief. Almost destroyed by the great conflict just out, Providence so far has not smiled upon the Southern planter. In 1866 there was a short crop, from drought and other causes. In 186/, plan ters planted, hoping to realize from 25 to 30 cents per pound. By the decline in market, cotton planters have failed to re alize the cost of production and are to an alarming extent now comparatively help less for the coming crop. In proportion as the cotton planter is enabled-to plant for a large amount of cotton, will the freedmen necessarily suffer. The extent of suffering among the freedmen. unlessSouthern plan ters are fostered bv the Government, will be appalling to the Christian heart. The “nation’s wards” cannot be better cared for than by thus providing for them remu nerative labor upon that staple with the production of which they are already fa miliar, and which yields to them the great est reward for that service, which they are best fitted, by their raising, to perform. A liberal law by Congress, as indi 'ated, would do much to stimulate national fra ternity. In view of the foregoing, be it, there fore. Uesolved, That the Congress of the United States be respectfully petitioned to appropriate thirty millions of United States currency, to be loaned under proper regulations, to aid the developing the ag ricultural interests of needy Southern planters. Resolved, That copies of the foregoing preamble and resolution be transmitted to the President of'the Senate ami Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States, with the request that they be laid before those bodies, and that copies bo also transmitted to the Presidents of the Constitutional Conventions in the South ern States; ind that we invite the co-op eration of such conventions in tins appli cation to Congress.

The object op their visit. Interest ing R KMOi ESC KNCK8. From the Dalton Republican.] The Chief of the Cherokee Nation, ac companied by several of the leading men of his tribe as a delegation to the United States Government paid a visit to their fatherland last week, while en route to Washington City. They contemplate an absence of several months from their Nation, on what may be regarded a three-fold mission. Their visit to this section, after an ab sence of thirty years, is to look once mo e upon the camping and hunting grounds of their tribe, and to hunt up ana persuade the small remnant that have lingered be hind to go “home” where they cat- be pro perly cared for. In our conversation with them they in formed us that quite a number are Ktill living in North Carolina, and a few InGeo- gia and Tennessee. They expressed them selves anxious to find them, and send the last wanderer to his tribal family. Their mission to Washington is to make a final settlement with the government of the United States, and get tne balance due them for this Cherokee country. The third and last object in making their protracted stay is to acquaint tjiexnselves with t..e improvements, inventions and discoveries of the age. When asked what they thought of the general opinion, that the Indian ere long will become extinct, that they are grad ually moving westward to the final burial ground of their race? They replied, that tliis can be true only of those tribes that will not accept of civilization, but adhere to the barbaric customs of the savage. As for the Chcrokees, up to the time of the war, they had not only continually in creased in wealth, learning and refinement, but in numbers—the tribe cour ting full *20,000 when the war commenc'd; but at present they number only 14.0 rtr * who are now in the Indian Nation, r*.:. :> Dig removed into the more rein• wilds and other hiding place.-, r- >.«•*• p out or a war that they took hut little interest in on either side. The tribe is also engag ed in looking up and bringing back these refugees to their friends and homes. One of this company, by the name of Reese, said he was once a scholar in the Missionary School of Mr. Blunt, whom he intended to visit, if he should lie still living. When informed that his respected mission ary friend had been over two years dead, lie* seemed sad at the disappear nVcnt of not meeting him again in life. a- he had hoped, not having, till then, heard of tiie death of this friend of his youthful days. When questioned about the condition of their trit>e in progress of civilization, they at once laid aside their accustomed reserve and sedateness, their chief speaker giving a glowing description of tiie advancement of their people in the arts, sciences and general improvements as fa" as their means would allow*. He went on to say that they “employed for their schools and accade- mies the best teachers that could be pro cured from the colleges of New England, and in education ana general refinement, believed that they were in advance of their white neighbors over in Arkansas—that he had not seen a drunken man, belonging to the Nation, in eight years, and though there was no law against the sale of intox icating liquors, yet public opinion so dis countenances the traffic that no one of means or respectability can be found to engage in the business,” ami added, with particular emphasis, “ we are in fact a na tion of white men, and though our laws are few and simple, yet crime and vice are of rare occurrence in our midst. A sound, high-toned public sentiment is the re straining moral power of the land, and is worth more than volumes of written laws and penalties.” We regret that their coming in our midst had not been previously known, in order that they could have received a public re-” cept on befitting their character and hu mane mission.

In the Supreme Court ex parte McArdle, there was a motion for dismission on the grounds: First, want of jurisdiction. Second, the appeal is from the judgment of the United States Circuit Court in a case of original jurisdiction, and Is not from a case in which the Circuit Court held appel late jurisdiction only. Third, the Circuit Court which Issued the habeas corpus had no jurisdiction of the case or proceeding under any law of Congress. The argument will be continued on Friday. North Carolina Convention.
