CONSTITUTIONALIST.
AUGUSTA. GtA.
FRIDAY MORNING, JAN. 10,1868.
TWO TELEGRAMS-
The night after the Memphis municipal
election, Gen. GonDON Granger, who com
mands at that post, was serenaded by a
number of citizens. Gen. Granger had
proved himself so kind a ruler that the peo
ple, though averse to stringing their harps
to praise the conqueror, made an exception
in his case, which is a rarity in the histo
ry of the American army since it turned its
bayonets against the South. Under cer
tain extraordinary circumstances, then, the
Conservative citizens of Memphis serenaded
Gen. Gordon Granger, and he, In re
sponse to the compliment, read the follow
ing telegrams :
Memphis, January 2, 1868. — To President
Andrew Johnson , Washington, D- C. : Mem
phis redeemed. Lcftwick elected mayor.-
Peace, order and quiet prevailed. Free white
suffrage vindicated.
Gordon Granger.
Washington, D. C., January 2, 1868. To
Gen. Gordon Granger: Thank you for the
good news. Truth and justice must triumph.
My faith in the people has not been diminish
ed. The day is not distant when Tennessee
will he redeemed.
Andrew Johnson.
There arc several noteworthy matters
manifested by these telegrams. First:
That, in a city, crowded with negroes
carpet-bag agitators, and Southern rene
gades, a Conservative white man has been
elected to the Mayoralty. Second: That
the general commanding is delighted thereat
and tcstilles his joy by communicating it to
the President. Third: That Ills joy is not
of a doubtful character; it proceeds from
the “ vindication of ‘free white suffrage.”
Fourth: That the reaction against Radi
calism is as great in the South —Brownlovv
and Brown-cursed though she may be—as
it is in the North. Fifth: That the re
demption of Memphis is the harbinger of
the redemption of Tennessee and other sub
jugated territories.
As the President considers such tele
grams “good news; and as he desires
the triumph of “truth and justice: we
would respectfully suggest the propriety of
giving Georgia and other Southern pachalics
the benefit of Gordon Granger, or some
captain fashioned after his peculiar mould.
We trust Gen. Meade’s staff may develop a
kindred spirit. If so, llulbert might as
well prepare his dcscension robes and
go off to Plutonian regions C. O. D.
Since the people of the North refuse to
make a sensation over Stanton, Sheridan,
Sickt.es and PorK, the example of Han
cock has had tremendous influence iii the
rank of the U. S. A. It would not surprise
us to sec a large crop of Gordon Gran
gers spring up in place of Wager Swaynes.
Adversity is hammering sympathy into the
hearts of Northern civilians ; the praise of
honest men may breed the “ vindication of
free white suffrage” in the heads of North
ern soldiers. Mr. Johnson should send a
special message to Congress asking that
erudite body to praise General Gordon
Granger. The “ vindication of free white
suffrage ” will lie as hateful to the Rump
as a red rag to a bull or holy water to the
devil. Failing to meet with appreciation
from that quarter, let General Granger be
sent to Georgia, in order that white people
may vindicate their race, and the North
itself be relieved from an awful sham and
a still more awful destiny.

The Bogus Convention.
To the Editor of the Constitutionalist:
Bir : The bogus convention, now in ses
sion in Atlanta, brings to mind another like
pretended legislative body in the history of
this State. In July, 1832, the famous tariff
act was passed by Congress, and, at a pub
lic meeting held at Athens in the month
succeeding, it was resolved that said act
was “ arbitrary, unequal, unconstitutional,
and, therefore, unjustand that it be re
commended to the people of Georgia “ to
elect delegates to a State Convention to as
semble at Millcdgcville on the second Mon
day in November next, and to invest them
with full power, in behalf of the good peo
ple of Georgia, to maintain, preserve, and
defend the rights and privileges of the free
citizens of this State.” In pursuance of
this call one hundred and thirty (130) per
sons presented themselves at Millcdgcville,
on the day named, 12th November, 1832, as
delegates from sixty one counties in the
State. Among these persons were ffm. 11.
Torrance, from Baldwin ; A. S. Clayton,
from Clark ; Owen 11. Kenan, from Coweta;
Hiram Warner, from Crawford; David
Blackshear, from Laurens ; John Macplier
son Berrien, from Monroe ; John Forsyth,
William Gumming, and John P. King, from
Richmond ; and A. T. Dozier, of Thomas.
Hon. Geo. R. Gilmer, of Oglethorpe, was
elected President, and Wm. Y. Hansell,
Benj. F. Moseley, and Mansfield Torrance
were appointed Secretaries. On the second
day Mr. Forsyth presented the following
resolution: •
Resolved , That a committee of five be ap
pointed by the President to examine and
report to this body at its next meeting the
authority of the persons assembled as dele
gates from the different counties of the
State to represent the people of their re
spective counties; the resolutions, if any,
under which the election in each county
was held, the manner of holding it, the
number of votes given at the elections and
the number of votes in the county.
On the fourth day, this resolution was
lost by a vote of 63 to 56 and on the day
following, 16th November, Mr. Forsyth,
with sixty other gentlemen, withdrew from
the body as not being, in a political sense,
a convention, and having no authority “ to
speak for the people ” Prior to withdrawal
a paper was laid by Mr. Forsyth on the
Clerk’s desk in thp nature of a protest, as
follows;
trotest.
The undersigned, who have been appoint-,
ed delegates to a State convention to be
held at Millcdgcville, hereby declare their
secession from the body which is now sit
ting under that title, for the following rea
sons :
First. More than twenty counties are un
represented iu the convention. The absence
of so large a part of a perfect representa
tion would in any case make it probable,
and in the present instance renders it al
most certain, that any important vote of a
majority of the convention will be, in ef
fect, a vote of the minority of the people.
Second. Not only have more than twenty
counties plainly indicated that they disap
prove the convention, by declining to send
delegates, but many of those which are
represented made appointments, not because
they approved of the convention, but that
their delegates might endeavor to avert the
evils which they anticipated from the meet
ing, and in the expectation that those dele
gates would withdraw whenever a course
should be adopted inconsistent with the
rights of their constituents.
Third. We conceive that a course has
been adopted inconsistent, not only with
the rights of our constituents, but with
justice to the whole people. Avery great
proportion of those sitting as delegates
have produced no sufficient evidence that
they are duly authorized to appear in be-
half of those counties which they nominal
ly represent; and the majority of the con
vention has refused to institute and enforce
such a scrutiny as is indispensable to the
investigation of this essential fact.
Under these circumstances, we deem it
an imperative duty to secede—at the same
time entering a solemn protest against any
authority or influence which may be claim
ed for the acts of the body which we have
left, as acts of a convention representing
the people of Georgia.

After the presentation of the above pro
test and withdrawal of those signing it,
this first of Georgia’s two bogus conven
tions adopted a series of resolutions, seven
teen in number, the chief whereof was one
recommending the Southern States to hold
a convention, and, in rebuke of this unwar
ranted action, the General Assembly at its
next succeeding session, while reprehend
ing the Tariff Acts, declared :
That we earnestly advise our fellow
citizens not to give their votes on the reso
lutions of the convention lately adjourned,
as therein proposed. That convention
manifestly consisted of delegates from a
minority of '-the people; yet they submit
their acts for ratification to the whole peo
ple, according to a form contrived by them
selves, through the agency of persons ap
pointed by themselves, while they them
selves remain final judges of the ratifica
tion proposed. To sanction such a pro
cedure would open a door for the grossest
imposition, would establish an alarming
precedent for usurping the rights of the
majority, and might ultimately expose us
to all the horrors of discordant anarchy.
How well, Mr. Editor, do these utter
ances of a by-gone generation fit the case
at the present day. Once more do we see
a bogus convention in Georgia, and once
more, almost to the letter, might the reso
lution of Mr. Forsyth, the protest of with
drawing members, and the indignation of
the General Assembly be levied, in all truth
and justice, against that beggarly assem
blage. Tyrone.
[From the Montgomery Advertiser, Bth.
Heavy Express Eobbery—Arrest of the
Eobber—His Pitiful Tale and Oonfession.
For two days past the rumor has been cur
rent on the streets of this city that a heavy
robbery had been committed on the staunch
old Southern Express Company, and that the
rohber could not be detected. The Express
messenger between Montgomery and Mobile
on Friday night last committed a robbery of
seventy thousand dollars, and on his return to
Montgomery on Sunday morning last concerted
the lollowing story : That while the train was
near Perdido station, about two hours before
day, the express car was entered by two roll
ers, who fired several shots at the messenger,
then forcibly threw him down and proeure'd
the keys to the sate; that then he rang the car
bell and the robbers jumped off the train with
the seventy thousand dollars. No other per
son was in the car during the night, it being
contrary to the regulations of the company to
allow any one to ride in the express car, except
the messenger himself.
The name of the unfortunate rohber is Thos.
Wolfe, and lie had been in the employ of (lie
company only a.few months. He showed bis,
coat containing several bullet holes, and his
tale altogether was very plausible. Mr. Born
at once, telegraphed the fa.et to (Jol. O’Brien, at
Augusta, superintendent ol the company, who
immediately came to Montgomery witti a do
tcctivc belonging to the Company. Colonel
O’Brien and the detective at once set to work
to ferret out the matter, and about 12 o’clock
last night found the greater portion of the
money in Wolfe’s own house. Upon being
thua confronted, the guilty man confessed the
crime. lie was brought before Justice Nettles
yesterday, and failing to give the required bond
of $20,000 was committed to jail.
Mr. Wolfe has many friends, and this unhap
py occurrence is deplored, as much by his
friends in the company, as any one else.
The Mail , of the same date, adds :
In this instance, as in many others in the
past, the excellence ol the Express detective
system was amply illustrated, the recovery of
the mouey so closely following the discovery
of the crime as scarcely to interrupt the usual
routine of business.
Fungral of Cot.. 1. G. Seymour.-—This
took place, as announced, yesterday at 10
o’clock, a. ni. The weather was quite inclem
ent in the morning, hut a large number of our
citizens attended, with his old military asso
ciates, and the cortege of the funeral was very
large.
The remains were escorted from the railroad
depot by them to the cemetery, and the usual
funeral services of the Episcopal Church, of
which he was a member, were performed by
the Rev. Mr. Reese.
Os Col. Seymour much might lie said, as a
portion of the history of our city. He was the
first mayor elected, which was in 1833, and
held that office till 1831), except for a lew
months while absent in the Seminole campaign
in Florida.
In Florida he commanded the Macon Volun
teers, then consisting of ninety-ouo men, and
acquitted himself with all the military reputa
tion that any soldier could acquire, under the
approval of Generals Clinch and Scott. This
can be attested by some of his old soldiers, (a
few only still remain among ns.)
He was selected to command the Gtorgia
troops in the Mexican war, by Gov. Crawford,
in preference to all others, and performed his
duties creditably during that war, and to him
Gen. Santa Ana surrendered as Military Gov
ernor at Perote.
On his return from Mexico he became editor
and proprietor of the New Orleans Bulletin ;
which he conducted most ably and successfully
until called into this war, as the selection of
two regiments as their commander, and in that
command he sacrificed his life at Mechanice
ville, in Virginia, in the early part of the war.
Asa military commander, few men had a
more peculiar and native endowment—to com
mand and control others—cither in the civil
encampments of the Macon Volunteers, in quiet
days (now passed), or stirring times of war.—
Every soldier obeyed and respected him, and
no unkind word was ever heard from one
against him.
[ Macon Journal and Messenger , 9th.
General Longstreet Arrested.— Since
the close of the war, an indictment was found
against General Longstreet for treason, in the
United States Court for the Eastern District of
Tennessee. His trial never took place, for va
rious reasons. One of them was that he never
was in the county of Knox. On Thursday,
January 2d, General Longstreet was on the
train en route lor Washington. In consequence
of the smash up near Loudon, he missed the
connection at, Knoxville, and remained over
night at the Lamar House. The Knoxville Her
ald says that as the General was about to start
next morning for Washington, the United
States Marshal, with a posse, approached him
with a warrant for his arrest, upon the charge
of treason. Unfortunately for the glory of
Knoxville, the warrant read “J. B. Long
street,” and as the General is known as James
Longstreet, he was able to escape upon the
train before the warrant could be amended;
and Knoxville thus loses the honor of having
a great trial for treason in her midst. We
fancy General Longstreet will give Knoxville a
wide berth hereafter. Her people are too hos
pitable to shipwrecked strangers.
Expressive if rot Complimentary.— The
Boston. Post, referring to the recent change of
district commanders, says : *• The substitution
of an intelligent, brave and honorable officer
like Genera] Meade for such an ass as Pope, is
the best possible evidence of the President’s
desire to see the laws faithfully administered,
and the people relieved from the freaks of au
thority run mad. Pope’s headquarters were
always nearer his saddle than his shoulders.”
The Savannah National Bank.— This bank
has declared a dividend of thirty-seven and one
hall per cent., payable on demand. A satisfac
tory showing for shareholders.

On motion of Mr. Blount, the rules were sus
pended, and the following resolution offered by
him was taken up :

Adopted.
On motion of Mr. Miller, the rules were sus
pended, when he proposed to amend the rules
of order by striking out the words, “ Com
mittee of the Whole ” and inserting in lieu
thereof the words, “ Standing Committees.”

ing, and being read, was, on motion, made the
special order for to-day.

It might have added “ lying fast.”
