FRIDAY MORNING, AUG. 28.1868 [From the Atlanta Intelligencer. GEOBGIA LEGISLATURE. Wbdnesday, Au£Q*t 36. BENATE. The Senate met pureuant to adjournment, and was opened with prayer by Rev. Mr. Smith, of the 7th District. Mr. Smith, of the 7th, moTed to suspend the rules in order to take up, for a second reading, the House bill to provide for the election ol a Mayor and Board of Aldermen of the city of Savannah ; also, a bill introduced by the Sena tor from the 38tb, on the same subject, and made the special order for to-morrow, at 11 o’clock. The motion wa# agreed to, and the bills read. The Senate took np the message of the Honse on the resolution encouraging emigration for the purpose of developing the mineral re sources and water power of the State, and con curred in the same. Square*. 1 Week. S Weeks. 3 Wsets. ■ l MoaUa 1 Mouth* i Monika 4 Month* 4 Meath* 9 Month*. 1 Mr. Wooten moved to suspend the rules for | the purpose of taking up the biil of the House for the reliof of tho Tree surer and Comptroller General, which wcj agreed to. The hi’l was npand pr ssod. The Senate resumed the unfinished business of yesterday, which was the consideration of the hill to alter and amend the usury laws of this State. Mr. Wellborn having the floor, resumed his argument. He read from the Code the sections sought to be repealed. He asked if this would benefit the people, this being the primary ob ject of ail legislation, ft was said by the friends of the bill that the striking out would bring money here, tic thought that we could hardly pay now the principal, not speaking of the interest. It is urged lor u« to borrow our selves rich. It seemed to Mm that our great est mistake in the past wes we have borrowed too much. Mr. Winn. Our object is simply to borrow money "on our cwn terms, and not to boirow onrselves rica. Mr. Wellborn. I understand the gentleman, and I leata that ho himself has propc :ed to loan money to unfortunate members who had none f Laughter.) Mr. Winn. I only »aid this jocularly. Mr. Wellborn. I meant it also in the same way. He encouiaged all to go to work and get rid of this debt. We should have it understood, that the man who makes this year one more bushel of corn than last, bn conferred a favor upon the community. He raid further, as a class tho money bolder needs no legislative protection ; Ibis, therefore, gives class privilege. Tho borrower and lender do not meet on equal terms. The money-lender belong j to the shrewdest of mar kind, who follow up these wayward young men and k m them, at an neurons rate, money which will eventually come out of their estate. It : * said there is a false prejudice against this cl;*«s. and a fancilul poet has dubbed them Shylc :k. The great poet, called Nature’s Secretary, baa given this name. H« did not aay all were entitled to the cogno men, but the majority were. It Is sought to Induce foreigneta to come amongst us and charge st the rate most neurons for money loaned; further—that this Inflated currency, when loaned, will eventually have to be paid back in specie. It is asserted that money ongbt to be pat on the tamo basis as other property. Money is not property, but simply the standard by which all property is judged. One hun dred cents is a dollar, and it is right and pro per, because it fixes the standard of a dollar’s worth of property. You will destroy the standard by destroying a fixed late of interest. It is eaid it will benefit our citi**, but there is no Senator here who i* legislating tor cities alone. He was proed of Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, Macon and others, but the effect will bn, if the bill 1* passed, that you drain the coun try for the benefit of the city. It person* wish money, stall we come to Atlanta to get it? Is it a better policy to borrow, or go to work and •ive it? If money dor, come borrowed, it will not benefit the Slate in manufactork;, neither in developing our mineral resources, i He s-id further that if the money does it. why do not the men only gcitiug 4 per cent, in New York come here and engage in building t.{> onr waste places. We wsh to k> -p out of debt, now and for all time to come It It insisted that the poor and afflict 'd w'll reap ad ran lager. These are not the people to borrow; on the contrary, yon encourage the >c who can pay to borrow until they themselves are engulphed In the common ruin, it Is the duty of the State to protect this class from a too great anxiety to borrow. lam willing to be called a fogy, if the etriking from our statute makes me one, or adverting the principles which our wlseat men have advoi Red for forty years. It we were rich, there is encouragement to borrow ; but pi we are poor, we dare not.— He concluded by wishing that Senatoia would give this bill a careful contideralion, and not pass It in a hasty manner. Mr. Fain followed Mr. Wellborn, In favor of ihe bill. His remarks were well received. -Mr. P. seldom addresses the Senate, and we hud his arguments strictly contiucd to the subject, very concise and compact. Mr. Adkins followed, also in favor of the passage of the hill. Mr. Uiutou spoke iu opposition at length. The rules were suspended and Mr. Lester in troduced a resolution In reference to the Bank of Bavauualr. lias reference to surrendering the charter. The previous question was called for on the | bill before the Senate and sustained. On the passage of the bill the yesa and nays were required, and are yeas, 17 ; nays, 18. Tiiose voting in the affirmative are : Adkins, Anderson, Brock, Burns, Candler, Col man, Fain, iligbee, Jones, Merrill, McCutehio, Manually, Smith, of the 36th District, Speer, Welch, Winn aud Wooten—l 7. Those votiug in the negative are : Bowers Burton, Campbell, Collier, Corbitt, Dickey, Graham, Griffin, ol tbe 6th, Griffin, of the 21st, Hinton, Holcombe, Lester, McWhor ter, Richardson, Sherman, Smith, of the 7th, Wallace, and Wellborn—lß. Teas, 17; nays, 18. So the bill was lost. On motion of Mr. Candler, Mr. Lester was added to the Judiciary Committee. The Senate then adjourned until 4 o’clock, p. HOUSE. The House met. Prayer by Rev. Mr. Spill man. Mr. Erwin, of Habersham, moved to recon sider the loss of a bill, to relieve Seaborn Mont gomery, security of Henry L. Tison, tax col lector Ac. Tbe motion prevailed. Mr. Hall, of Meriwether, introduced a resolu tion to introduce no new matter after Monday next, &c. Not taken up. CALL OF COUNTIES.

Mr. Hiilyer introduced the iollowing reso lution : Whereas, The dignity of this House has been compromised, and individuals greatly in sulted, by the officious conduct of persons com monly called " lobbyists,” by intruding them- MlNta on thin floor, actively circulating around AUGUSTA, (Ga ,) FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 28, 1868 among members, during the session, yesterday and on other days, seeking to instruct mem bers and to influence votes, unbecoming geu tlemen, both in and out of the House, by mis represoatatiou and poor or good whisky, red drops and Savannah cigars; and whereas, it greatly interferes with honest, fair legislation of olden times, besides a very great annoy ance ; and whereas, it has been the cause of much corruption in other States ; he it, there fore Resolved, That no person in that capacity, by profession, influence, or intimidation, shall be allowed inside the bar of this House, either on invitation or by ticket from the Speaker, and that in other respect* the rules of this House be rigidly enforced. Not taken op. Resolution by Mr. Btone Resolved, That the Judiciary Committee be and they are hereby respectfully instructed to report a bill to compel physicians to answer all calls, night or day, tor the poor and rich, both alike, and if the party so calling them reluse to ptty, he shall be considered a heretic and worse than an infidel, and the doctor shall have power to take property and sell it to pay himself. If the doctor refuse* to go to answer tho call lie shall be considered as committing a great crime against humanity and worse thau a heretic or infidel. Mr. Bryant rose to a point of order—that a minority could not report till the majority had reported. Mr. Scott replied : The majority could have met—had been invited to meet, but they wonlri not do so. The majority of the committee, he was satisfied, never intended to report. If the majority never saw fit to report, should the minority never report ? He claimed this was a queetion-of privilege, and we had a right to take it up at any time. The Chair decided this a privileged question, and could t>e token up at any time. Six weeks had been allowed, and the majority had suffi cient time to report. He ruled the minority could offer their report. Mr. P. ice appealed iroin tba decision of the Chair. Mr. Bcott called the previous question on Mr. Rice’s motion, and called for the yea* and nay*. The call for the yeas and nay* was with drawn. Upon a division the yeas were 102; nays, 31. Mr. fckott then presented the following wi notity report, which was read : We, the undersigned, members of the Com mittee on Privileges and Elections, to whose consideration was referred a revolution of this House, to iuquire into the eligibility of F. 11. Fya.ll, a member of this House,from the eounty of Macon, beg leave to make the following rc port : Ist. Upon an investigation of the case of said Fyall, and an examination of evktence, we find that said Fyall was not, previous to the election of members of the General Assembly, held on the kOih, 21st, 23d and 23d days of Apr!, 1868, a cit'wn of Macon county, but a citizen Os the eounty of Bibb; and that said Fyall baa not, since raid election, resided in raid county of Macon, but >n the county of Bibb; and that said Fyall is at present a citizen of the county of Bibb, and for the above reasons is not eligible to his st at »s a member of this Horse under the constitution ot this State. 2d. We furthermore find that said F. H. Fyall Is ft free person of eolor, and for this reason is not under the constitution of this State, nor »ny law thereof, el'gible to bis seat upon this floor. And for the reasons above stated, the undersigned respectfully recommend that said Fyall be declared ineligible to bis seat as a member of this body, and be immediately rr moved therefrom. Io making this report, the undersigned would respectfully submit their reasons for making the same before final action was taken tfrerfeon by the Coinmfltco on Privileges and EkctionH. Duriug the first week of the ses sion of this be Jy the resolution of the House looking to the eligibility of said Fyall was re ferred to the committee for their investigation. Effort after effort has been made by the under signed members of raid committee to bring said investigation to a close and report the same to this House- The disposition of a ma jority ol the committee seems to be to prevent an investigation rather than make oue as re quired by the rc of this House. Satis fied in our own minds that the matter will nevea reach a eonclnsioq before the committee, we deem it but just to ourselves to make tlris report. AB of which is respectfully submitted lIONbAF Pcott, T. M. Bareness, John Long, Wit.i.tam D. Anderson, P. H. Brasseix, W. P. Price. When Mr. Duncan introduced as a substitute the resolutions offered by Mr. Tumlia, of Ran dolph, a few days since, declaring aH the negro members ineligible. Mr. Brjant raised a point of order, that the minority report should lie over till the majority should report. The Speaker decided the point of order not well taken. Mr. Bryant r.iip ;d further point of order, that, t lie Question was settled by a former resolution adopted by lb's House, declaring all members eligible, aud that having been decided, this question could not be entertained again. Mr. Harper rose to an explanation, that the gentleman from Richmond well knew that the report, winch he as chairman had made a re port, was solely on the question of eligibility of members under tbs 3d Section 14th Article of the United States Constitution. Mr. SUuuiale sustained Mr. Harper’s explana tion. Mr. Bryant insisted on bis point of order. Mr. Harper read from she journal of the 18th of July. He said she gentleman from Rich mond could not bamboozle anybody in this House, not even the negroes. Mr. O’Neal, of Lowndes, sustained,! n a forci ble speech, the point of order raised by Mr. Bryant, insisting that this matter had been up before the House and bad been settled. His reasons were, that by the report ol the min ority commUtce on the eligibility of members, till persons bolding scats on the floor were eligi ble thereto, and by this report the gentlemen had committed themselves. Mr. Shumate replied, saying Mr. O’Neal bad grossly misrepresented the report of the com mittee His position was, that the investiga tion had been conducted under the Sd section and 14th article of the constitutional amend ment. (We regret our inability to report Mr. Shumate’s remarks, so entranced were we with his eloquence, that, dropping our pencil, we devoted ourselves to listening, fully satis fied that bis arguments were unanswerable, a complete reiutation of all the charges brought against the Democratic side of the House, and an unanswerable vindication of the course ol the paity to-day. Long may he waVe, &c.) Mr. Caldwell rose to a personal explanation Hi 6 object in offering a resolution to refer all the papers relative to the eligibility ol mem bers was, that it was a disturbing question, and lie wished to relieve the House of the mat ter, and wished to throw the responsibility on the commanding general. lie was a man of peace; wanted to be on terms of peace with all his fellows. He did not believe General Meade had any right to throw this responsibil ity on this House. He wanted nobody, who had a fair right, to be excluded from liis seat. He disclaimed the improper motives imputed to him. He had believed, and ever should be- there were outside influences at work. The Speaker decided Mr. Bryant’s point of order not well taken. Mr. Bethunc, chairman of the Committee on Privileges and Elections made a report. On motion ol Mr. Duncan, the report of Mr. Bethunc was laid on the table by yeas, 83 ; nays, 53. Mr. Scott was about to make a speech, when the question arose, “ Should the members charged with ineligibility be allowed to vote each separately on the question of the other’s eligibility?" The Speaker pro. tem., Mr. Price, said he but conformed to the ruling of the Speaker elect; when he decided that as a class the mem bers now on trial for ineligibility should not vote on the eligibility ol others. An appeal was taken from the decision of the Chair. The Chair was sustained by a vote of 00 to 30. The House adjourned to 9, ». m., to-morrow. HURLEY’S AGfIP TONIO. o- — PERFECTLY RELIABLE.

THE BUSINESS OF THIS COMPANY IS EXCLUSIVELY CONFINED TO THE INSURANCE OF FIRST-CLASS HEALTHY LIVES. o r T UK distinctive feature of the Stock system of Llfo Insurance, as opposed to tho M utual, is a low rate of premium for a stated sum insured, which is immkdiatk, sbomikd ami curtain ; in lieu of a high rateof premium with a promised dividend, which is distant, oontingbnt ami uncertain ; this so-called dividend being merely a return oi a portion of the excessive ana unnecessary premium charged in the first Instance. By tho Stock plan the vuix cash khvkct of tho premium is immhdiatkly secured to the insured, tho Company taking all tho risk. By the Mutual plan, tho full value in insurance ol the premium paid is not. secured to the Policy Holder, who takes a poittonof tho risk himself. THE PREMIUMS Charged by the UNIVKRHAI. arc as low as the actual experience of Insured 1 ifo in this country will justify, and on the ordinary Life and Ten Year Non-forfeiture Policies are nearly onk-tiiiku lower than those charged by tiie majority of Mutual Companies. All the improved descriptions of Life and Endowment Policies issued on the HTOCK PLAN AT GREATLY REDUCED KATES. Policies issued al rales lets than those, charged by Mutual Companies, guaranteeing the return of all Pre miums paid in addition to the amount insured. Policies issued at rates less than those charged by Mutual Companies, guaranteeing a redaction of fifty per cent, of the Premium after the Third Annual Payment. HOARD OF DIRECTORS.
