A New Cement. —A reference to our adver tising columns, this morning, will showa notice of Mr. VV. Bartley, who has for sale, at the Augusta Hotel and about the city, anew and highly valuable cement, called the Japanese Holdfast. This cement is home made, and is warranted pnrer and better than a great deal of that which his been sold here by Norlh{>rn dealers, being much whiter and possessing a greater tenacity and not yielding to thsf action ot hot water like most, of the cement, we buy. Mr. Bartley is a very worthy young man, a Con federate soldier with one arm, a native ol Georgia, and exerting himself to obtain an education by this and other worthy means.— He will remain hero, ft few days and will be glad to apply his cement to any articles which may be brought him, free of cosl, to show its strength and value. It is much cheaper lhaii most of the cement offered for sale, and we believe it to be an excellent article. Important to Smokers.— Smokers who are susceptible to the effeets of nicotine should be carefnl in their choice of tobacco, the different kinds of which have widely different amounts Os nicotiue. In that of Turkey, Greece and Hungary there is scarcely a trace of the poison. In that of Brazil, Havana and Paraguay the amount is two per cent. In that of Maryland 2.29; of Alsace 3.21: of Kentucky 6; of Virginia 6.87, and of France 7 30 per cent. The Fruit.— Our late Spring weather-haa greatly diminished the chances for a fine fruit crop this year, in this part of the State, and it wonld seem that even farther North similar ap prehensions exist from the same cause. Our Maryland exchanges speak of the probabilities of a total failure of the crop in that State, and we fear that the first cold weather we have will end all our hopes for peaches this Summer. Full Dress Funerals —lt appears that Philadelphia has reached such a degree of civil ization that the “ upper ten ” indulge in what are called full dress funerals. We noticed an account of a funeral which took place there several days since, to which the friends of the deceased were invited to come “ in full dress suit and white gloves.’’ What next, we won der ? Tickets for the Opera. —We are requested to state that season tickets and reserved seats for the Opera, which opens here next week, can be secured at. 'he store of Messrs. J. C. Schreiner & Sons to-day, at 10 o’clock. All persons who desire to obtain eligible seats should call at an early hour after the sale com mences. New Almanac.—We have received from the publishers, Messrs. Walker, Evans* Cogswell, of Charleston, S. C., their almanac for 1869. It is gotteu up in most excellent style, conve niently interleaved for making notes, nud re flects much credit upon the publishers. To Those in Want of Monet. —Mr. P. Morris announces this morning that he is ready to advance loans from one dollar upwards ou such collateral security ns clothing, watches, jewelry, &e., on the most liberal terms. His office is No. 292 Broad street, Angusta, Ga. Georgia Securities in New York—On Tuesday Georgia securities sold in New York as follows: Georgia sixes at 82@84; sevens, 92%@93 ; sevens, interest payable in the State, s7@9o; city of Atlanta eights, 80@84; and city Os Savannah sevens at 89@90. The White Fawn.— Another large audience ■witnessed this spectacle last night at Concert Halt, the representation seeming to afford much pleasure to those present. There will be one more exhibition to-night. Columbia and Augusta Railroad —Our readers will find notice of a change of schedule of the nbove road by referring to our adver tising columns this morning. Wood.— Mr. W. W. Smytbe has a large sup ply of upland oak wood for 6ale, at $5 50 per cord, delivered. Orders can be left at Messrs. Stovall & Edmondston’s store, or at the wharf. The Weather.— Our season has changed again, and yesterday was quite cool, with con siderable wind during the morning. We should be preDaring to meet the coming of blustering March. , AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION.

Georgia Historical Society—Celebration of the Thirtieth Anniversary of its Formation. in February, 1839, tbe Georgia Historical Society, upou the petition of Hon. J. M. Her rien, lien. James M. Wayne, Hon. M. H. Mc- Allister, I. K. Test, Right liev. Win. Bacon Stevens, George W. Hunter, Henry K. Preston, Colonel William Thorne Williams, Judge Charles 8. Henry, Judge John C. Nicoll, Judge William Law, Judge Robert M. Charlton, Dr. R. D. Arnold and A. A. Smets, was chartered by the Legislature “for the purpose of collect ing, preserving and diffusing information re lating to the State of Georgia in particular, and of American history generally.” The Society being incorporated, proceeded to raise funds, and erected the handsome building on Bryan street, now used by them, it flourished, and was highly appreciated for years. Then the interest takeu in it slackened somewhat, and, like everything else, it languished during the war. Alter peace once more resumed its sway, the Society commenced to increase and pros per. New members joined it, new life was in fused into it, and it has steadily gaiued ground each year. It now has over two hundred mem bers, and the number of them is generally, in creased at each meeting. Within the past three years a scientific section has been estab lished, of which Dr. Wrn. M. Charters is Presi dent. As the monthly meetings of the latter, matters «fa critical nature In chemistry, me chanics and other scientific subjects ace dis cussed, and the section seeks not only to make the Society more interesting, but also to be of service to the community at large, by impart ing knowledge «f matters not generally taught, but useful to everybody. The Society has a library, numbering over seveu thousand five hundred volumes, many of them rare hooks, also a number ot valuable manuscripts. The monthly dues of its mem bers and fees collected from those joining the Society are appropriated to the purchase of books, arid it is hoped that the time will come when this valuable collection will prove the nucle us lor a large and public library, its present building having become too small to meet the growing demands of the Society, it is proposed to extend it over the large lot in the rear, buck to Bay lane, and make a large hall, which could be used either by the Society or tor public purposes when required. The ad vantages of having such a place, especially when Savannah is totally destitute of a public : hall with a central location, are manifest to all At four o’clock yesterday alternoon the an nual meeting of tbe Society, for the election of officers, was held, the President, Judge E. ,J. Harden, in the chair. A large number of mem bers were present. Judge Harden, chairman of tho committee to draft resolutions of respect for the memory of the late Col. William Thorne Willi tens, pre sented a report, which was received and adopted. The Society then went into an election of offi cers, which resulted in the re-election ot the old officers, (with one exception, mentioned be low,) as follows : President—Hon. E. J. Harden. First Vice-President—Dr. W. H. Charters. Second Vice-President—Geu. A. R. Lawton. Secretaries—Corresponding, Dr. R. D. Ar nold ; Recording, Dr. Easton Yonge. Treasurer —W. S. Bogart. Librarian—J. F. S. Lancaster. Curators —Solomon Cohen,* W. B. Hodgson, 11. R. Jackson, Wm. Duncan, B. Phillips, Judah Harris, T. M. Norwood. Last evening, the Dr., 11. H. Tncker, deliv ered a lecture before the Society, at the Thea tre. The lower part of the building was crowded and the distinguished gentleman was listened to with attention. ' He was introduced by Judge. Harden, and, the printers of the Morning News having made a typographical error, and annonneed that Dr. Tucker would lecture on “ Wood Power,” he said he felt bound to speak upon the subject lest the audi ence should he disappointed ; and proceeded in a very amusing manner to lecture upon the power of wood, especially for educational pur poses. Proceeding then with his real subject, “Word Power,” he delivered a very fine, learn ed and eloquent dissertation upon the power of words over the nctious of men, which was re ceived with deep interest on the part of the au dience. ♦Elected in place of Col. William Thorne Williams, deceased. Scandalum Magnatum —Q. Smith, the nig ger judge who presides in this circuit, has made anew common law office. He says that if a man neglects to pay his taxes to the United States, he can be committed to jail for contempt of court. The contempt is based upon the non-paying of the tax, but it is simply a pre text. it consists, as i3 defined in the reigns of Edward 1. and Richard 11., “ in any wrong, by words or in writing, done to high personages of the land, such as peers, judges, ministers of the crown, officers in the State, and other great public functionaries, by the circulation of scandalous statements, false news, or horrible messages, by which any debate between them, and the Parliament, or any scandal to their persons might arise." Such a wrong is scan dalum magnatum. It differs, says the New York World, from mere promiscuous and ma lignant lying about private persons in that it is reduced to no certain rules and definitions, bnt it, may be whatever shall be judged to be de rogatory to the high character of the person of whom it was spoken. An old Nisi Prius re port tells us Unit, while it was held to he harm less to say of any common person “ he is no more to he valued than a dog,” it was held to be scandalum m rgnatum to say the same thing of a peer.— Montgomery Mail. Valuable Patent to a Georgian.— We have been shown, says the Atlanta Constitution, a patent for a Non-vibrating Propeller, granted by the British Government to James A. Joyner, a young man born at LaGrange, in this State, anil whose father resides in this city. From the description of it by the Liverpool Daily Post, vie should think it destined to supercede all others as the motive power in propelling Te jcfyner’s history has been rather an eventful one since the close of the war. He is now only about 26 years of age. Sixteen months in the Confederate army, he was subsequently com missioned by Mr. Davis as master in the volun teer navy. Running the blockade in 1861}, he remained in that service until the close of the war. Next, he took command in 1866, of a Liverpool Merchant vessel, and sailed toCardis, jn Wales, thence to South Africa. His vessel was then chartered for JJong Kong, China. He then returned to Germany, from that to Bo land, from Holland to Constantinople. In 1868, with arms he ran the blockade in the Cretan war loaded with refugees, aud was captured by a Turkish man-of-war. After being released he traveled through France, then went to Liver pool where he invented the propeller alluded to. m Talleyrand, when asked his opinion of a lady’s dress, which was very low in the neck and very short, replied that it “ began too late and end ed too soon.” The old gunboat Harriet Lane, which was captured by the Confederates at Galveston, is now lying at Gibson’s wharf, East Boston. She has been fitted handsomely as a bark, nnd is going to the west coast ol South America, BY TELEGRAPH. [Special to the Constitutionalist. Georgia Legislature. Atlanta, February 16. The Senate opened with a motion of Mr. Burns to reconsider the resolution, recently passed, in reference to tbe multiplicity of cierks already appointed by the Secretary and not examined. The motion, after much discussion, was laid on tbe table. A resolution to appropriate the per centage allowed the Treasurer for deposits to the poor school fund was tabled for tbe present. A bid was introduced by Mr. Adkins, tax ing counties a thousand dollars for every mur der or homicide committed in it, was, after considerable debate upon it, recommitted to the Judiciary, who had reported adversely up on it. A resolution of Mr. Speers, to instruct the Comptroller General to notify the ordinaries of each county that they cannot collect or levy a tux on the poll tax for county purposes, gave rise to a heated debate, and was finally with drawn by the general consent of the House. A motion of Mr. Scott to reconsider the re solution in relation to tbe appointment of the committee to settle tbe differences between the present Treasurer and the Governor pre vailed. The bill was reconsidered authorizing parties to contract for not more than twenty-five con victs. The bill lost yesterday, forming anew county out of Decatur, was reconsidered. An exciting debate took place in reference to the veto of the Governor on Price’s resolution relative to the eligibility of the negroes brfng referred to the Supreme Court. A motion to postpone the subject indefinitely was lost. The whole matter was finally made the special order for the first Monday in March. Mr. O’Neal took Strong ground against the proposition. Members complain very, much from the evi dence before the Finance Committee, at the charges made for lighting both Houses of the Legislature. The charges are four hundred dollars, even with no night sessious having been held. The Republican caucus will hold a meeting to-night, it is supposed to take into considera tion the calliug of the Constitutional Conven tion, with same officers and members as here tofore. (Associated Press Dispatches. W ashington. Washington, February 16—Noon. Booth’s body was quietly delivered to his frieuds last evening. The amendment to the tax bill adopted last nio-ht permits whisky to remain in bond until April 20, but subjects it to one <*fent per gallon tax per month after April 20, 1869. On and after to-day smoking and fine cut chewing to bacco offered for sale must be packed and stamped according to law. The Senate passed a bill making it a misde meanor to loaD money on United States notes as collateral. The House is considering the removal -fff dis abilities, Beck arguing against McKee’s motion to strike out all Kentucky names. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is here in strong force opposing tae bill making 400 feet the minimum span for bridges over navigable streams. Washington, February 16—P. M. Carl Bchurz on the floor of the Senate was cordially greeted by extremists. The executive session only ratified some Indian treaties. Sawyer introduced a joint resolution, that all actions for the recovery of the proceeds ot cap tured and abandoned property under its act of March 12th, 1563, may be commenced on or before the expiration of four years, from October 20tb, 1866, and all actions now or to be commenced shall be held to be within the provisions of said act of March 12tb, 1863. Calvin J. Cowles was confirmed Assaycr at the Mint at Charlotte, North Carolipa, Jones H. Huckelberry Attorney for Western District of Arkansas, aud several other very small offi cers. ‘ Congressional. Washington, February 16. Senate.—A bill allowing Pierce, formerly Consul at Mataraoras SII,OOO for assistance rendered refugees during the war. Passed. Tbe pension for Mis. Lincoln was discussed at great length with no action.) Several struggles were made to take np the tenure-of-offlee bill and failed. Adipvjrned. An executive session occurred this alternoon, the first for two weeks. The Senate is discussing pensions to-night. ' House.—After a long debate on the relief bill, the House came to a vote. The motion to exclude JohnlW. Wright, sheriff of Richmond, failed by a vote of 46 to 76. The motion ex cluding Kentuckians failed—3s to 109. The bill finally passed—l3o to 48. Mr. Colfax voted for the bill. Bankiug and currency was resumed, tbe pre vious question secouded, with the understand ing (hat the vote was to be taken to-morrow. The bill authorizes, among other things, the Comptroller to issue circulating notes, under regulations provided in the bill, to an amount not exceeding twelve millions each, to Ken tucky, Missouri, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas and Ar kansas, provided the increased circulation be allowed these States only as it is withdrawn from others which have an excess. Recess. The House is considering the revenue to night. G-eorgia. Atlanta, February 16. The report of the Finance Committee, to whom was referred the investigation of charges made against Governor Bullock by the Slate Treasurer, was yesterday presented to the House, and without beiug read was ordered printed. The report opens thus : “ We do not say that Governor Bullock is guilty of anything criminal or bad faith, but, ou the contrary, believe his in tentions were pure, aud what he did was in good faith, believing at the time it was for the best interest and welfare of the State, yet we think he acted without authority of law, hence wc propose to examiue his acts and try them by the same test that the highest nnd lowest citizen is tried—by law and evidence.” The report then cites evidence, showing that former Governors of Georgia had frequently exercised the same power as that exercised by Governor Bullock, and goes on to say : “ For the purpose of gettiug clearer and fuller development of facts growing out of the drawing and use of the $35,000, your sub committee addressed to the Governor a few in terrogatories, and also enclosed the same to the Treasurer. The Governor’s communication is to the committee and founded thereon trom the interrogatories addressed to him. They responded immediately to the inquiries of the committee, and the Governor gave a much more satisfactory account of the affair than we had before received. We learned that Messrs. Kimball had been advanced $31,000 lor the pur poses of lighting, heating and furnishing the Capitol, and with it a copy of the vouchers, and that the balance of $4,000 is in cash, and cash items authorized by the law to be collected by warrants whenever the Treasurer is placed in proper relation to the Executive Department. “The Treasurer’s reply gave no other informa tion about the matter, but contained an intima tion that $17,000 charged to the State in the money column, bad been improperly nsed by the Governor. This suspicion, we find on ex amination, perfectly groundless. We do not intend to be guilty of captions fault finding, but are satisfied of the integrity of the Gov ernor. We are still willing to repose in him a generous confidence. “In conclusion, upon lull consideration of the facts and circumstances, with the inference brought to bear upon us, the majority of the committee having so decided, wc refuse to make any recommendation, whether the State shall assume the payment or the City Council of Atlanta shall be held responsible, except we recommend, to prevent similar occurrence hereafter; that the Judiciary. Committee be instructed to prepare a bill and define more clearly the duties of the Governor and Treasurer, and give the Treasurer exclu sive power of negotiating State bonds, by and with the consent of the Governor. We appre hend that the Treasurer, when a warrant, prop erly drawn by the Governor, is approved and entered by the Comptroller General, has no right to go behind the warrant to look into its legality. The warrant, if within the amount appropriated, is his security. The contingent fund is placed in the Governor’s hands, to be used as he thinks proper, and the Treasurer has no right to question his use or application of that fund," The committee is composed of 27 members— -4 Republicans, 3 Conservatives and 20 Demo crats, and a very thorough and impartial inves tigation seems to have been made.
