a copy of liis address delivered before the
Alumni of Franklin College. It should be
read by every Georgian—it is replete, with
sound views and startling facts. We ex
tract below:
“ Georgia may safely be estimated as paying
within a fraction of one million of dollar® for
the support of Northern labor and enterprise
in the single article of books —nearly three
times the amount of our annual State taxes.
“Imagine that sum, or one-tenth that sum,
judiciously expended, annually, tor the pro
motion of Georgia’s authorship and Georgia’s
Literature, and what changes cannot our
imagination picture in the educatiolial ijn
provehient of our State !
„Circumstances have induced me to spend
much thought upon this subject for several
years. Southern Authorship you will find
confined almost exclusively to those who are
able to prosecutedwith ail eye only to rep
utation; and being a Labor of Love, 1 have
though that oth- only hope, for Southern
Books, under present auspices, was from
laive’sown home—Wemail's lionet.
* Tho heat of our long summenL and the’
long rains of winter, ncccessa,i ijy confine

I>et us have something that will draw them
away from the unhappy magnetism of that
luost murderous of all cold steel the needle.
Sanchu l'anzii could never have blessed the
fneinory of him that invented so iusideoes a
stiletto. If ‘ sharps’- 4 blunts’ and ‘ betweeos’
were encased in the magcntic cable, which;is
to reach from Newfoundland to Ireland, they
would, by giving ‘ news’ something to talk
about—do our ladies a much Letter service
tlian seperated in those small brown papers,
that always re in inti one ofLsiek iteadacltt*
spinal diseases, sorrow and death.
“ Let it not be said that our females are in
capable of furnishing This, literature. Dr.
Prime, in a lute interesting sketHi of Travels
in Europe, tells of an eccentric lliblinphi
list, whose Library he visited in one of the
Italian cities, composed entirely of works
written by women. At the time oi liis visit,
they mnnbered 35,00(1 volumes. Are there
not 35,000 volumes of ideas in the bruits at
our own fair eountry-wmnen / And will
they not give, them to their countrymen?
Could they but dagurereotype on paper some
of their winning ways—their-plepsant smiles
and their own bright glances, I am sure they
would make students of many a gay Lo

THI SAVANNAH BANKS—GOV JOHNSON'S LET
TER.
Savannah, Oct. 15, 1857.
Hit excellrncy, H. F. Johns'm, J\ldledgCy
ri/le :
Sir—On tbel4fh instant, a meeting of
merchants and citizens of Savannah was
held, to take into consideration tbe present
money crisis,and the course wliiclr the Banks
should pursue under such circumstances.—
The mce.tiug was ouo of-the largest and most
respectable which hasever been held here,and
after due deliberation, resolutions were adop
ted recommending that the Banks suspend,
temporarily, specie payments —not that an)
doubts were entertained of the perfect sol
vency and excellent condition of the Banks,
evidenced by their reports recently submit
ted to you—but that the stoppage of Banks !
in every commercial city in the Union, and
the almost certainty their example would be
followed by the rest, made it imperative Jjo
do so in their own defence. The drain in
thiA state of things being confined to the
few Uauks that do pay specie, would, in a j
N very short time, have withdrawn, every par
tide of coin in their possession. ■
Under these circumstances, and at the in
stance of tbe Committee in which they are
located, wc have beou appointed a commit
tee, and instructed to ask of your Excellen
cy to withhold any action against the Banks
hi consequence of this step, uutiLthe meeting
of the ,Legtslatunj, and we ask this in the
hope your Excellency will see no objection j
to acquiesce in tho request, when it is recol- j
lected the Legislative meeting is so near at j
Land. ,
ith great respect, yourob’t serv’ts,

EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,
Milledokville, Oct. 19, 1857. J .
Gentlemen .*—l acknowledge the receipt
of yours of the 15th inst., iu behalf of the :
merchant* and citizens of Savannah, reques
ting me to withhold my action against the
Banks in conscqucuce of their suspending
specie payments, as the approaching Legist a 1
tore is so near at hand. —d
I should have done as you suggested, if
no such reqnest # had been made. lain grat
ified. tliat my.convictions are fortified by'the j,
‘suffrage of so intelligent a ’portion of the
people ns you represent. The unanimity of
their voice would se4£ to indicate, that there
cannot be much diversity of opinion among*
thinking men, as to the propriety of a cheer
ful compliance with the \vish of the mer
chants and citizens of Savannah. .
1 do ffot preterftf To He familiar with the
great questions of finance involved in tho ’
commercial crisis that is upon us, but in my
bumble judgment the suspension on of specie
{faying, is nfit n remedy, it is only an expedi-!
ent, and will fail to be even an expedient tin- 1
less debtors, creditors, merchants, people aud
Banks, Act with and towards each other in
the utmost good faith,"and with a mutual de-!
sire to render each others burdens, as light as
possible. The spiritbf confideaco and for- ’
bearance must pervade every ramification of
business, without this tbe suspension will
benefit but one class—tbe Banks, by ena
bling them to postpoue tbe payment of their
debts—their bills—which are not bearing in
terest, and fey tjie use of their specie, and j
other available meiins, to*speculate in ex
change,.and screw down tbe produce market
to specie prices. Such a course, however, I ,
do not anticipate. I tftist those who own
and direct’ the Banks, are patriotic, high ton
ed, and liberal minded gentlemen, who would
scorn to use their power to oppress the peo- j
pie, while they are asking tolerance at fGV
hands of the. people’s representatives.
The only effectual remedy fob the pressure
of the times would be found in the industri
al resources of tiie country —nothing hut
“ tbe sweaf of the brow” can pay debts and j
equalise exchanges—hut this were fruitless ;
without economy: ho is so blind, as not to i
see/arjd so obdurate as to deplore the extrav- 1
ngance of the times! tbe great excess of ex
penditure beyond nett profits, this is the cause j
l of the wide-spread malady that now afflicts
I our land, like tbe ravages of a baleful epidetn- 1
! ic. The expedient resorted to, if properly
employed may save .the patient, until the
’ great rimedi/ can come to the rescue.
It is gratifying to believe that the suspen
!si on of our Banks {and I think those of the j
! South general v,) is not the result of insol-j
jvoney; hut tbe measure of self defence!
j against tliedrafts~np<tu then coin, to replenish
tbe vaults of those of the North.
I predicate my opinion of tlie soundness of
of our Banks, upon the exhibits they pre
sent, in response to Executive proclamation.’
lienee, bill-holders may safely trust them
with a generous’ confidence in their ability
to re'ecis, as soon as the iSisiuilts from the
commercial centres of tbe North should be
: stopped. _
1 confess, gentlemen; to a feeling of sec
tional pride, which is irresistably awakened
byn survey of tbe circumstances, that sur
round ns. The North is tottering with par
alysis, her factories suspending merchants
ailing, and all the avenues of business block
ed r,p with tbe ruins of commercial wreck.
I sjie.ak nut of this, to rejoice over her niis
fufnrre, Imt.to ask vyhal is the. ultimate, and
almost her only hope, of relief ? What earn
revive her commercial- prosperity. Wiiv is
it, that the .Smith amidst tint thunder of the
crash, stands calm and uiiawed poised upon
the consciousness of Injr capacity, to outride
the 1 tempest l It is our three million cotton
trades, now going forward to the markets of
the world, that gives ns the fooling of
strength and safety. Our: cotton gives mo
tion to the whole machinery of the world's
commerce, and if true to ourselves, we have
and must ever have the ‘foundation of tine
proudest, independence commercial,” as \v< II
as civil, that cvfr blessed any age or people.
As gerinain io this thought, what an em
phatic illustration of the vast importance to
1 the South of dirccf tfade between her own
hortomry. Will she ever- aw alien to the mag
nitude of such a policy, and by its bold aud
•kmcessftill accomplishment, break the only
cTTaiti tliat now fetters her giant limbs?—
This will consninate. her independence, and
then she will not only feed,, as she uo\y does,
but slie will regulate and direct the commerce
of the world, and I beg pardon, gentlemen;
for permitting myself to be. betrayed into
these random reflections, if not positively
’ call,pelfof by yiiti, 1 trust they are not wliolv
inappropriate’to the occasion which elicits
the commuiticguioii.

gives ns reliable intimation of the result of
. the recent election iu that Territory. Par
rott, the Fresoil candidate for Congress, is
elected over Ransom, the Democratic candi

nomination, a message transmitted by him
1 to the Legislature of Michigan, while he was

taining strong Frcesoil sentiments. The
1 election, however will bo contested oti the
‘ground that largo bodies of illegal voters
were introduced from Nebraska.
The Legislature is largely Democratic—both
branches having decided Democratic
ties.
’ ’ The* impression is very decided that the
Constitutional Convention, which re-nsseiu
ble-1 yesterday, will transmit the result of
of their deliberations directly to Congress
without submitting it to the people for ratifi
cation This is the true course, as we have
maintained from the first, When a people
e’eets a convention, they constitute the high
est power that can exist in an organized
community, and to subject the labors of such
a body to popular revision, is a mockery flf
the very idea tff a Convention. If it is not
