I\ Al' UlllAl, A DOUBfMi OF 03V. .IhNKIAB
SINATOKS AMI REPRESENTATIVES :
1 am hero ia obedience to the behest the
people of Georgia, to a-cutno ’.ho 'duties and
responsibilities imposed by the coaatiitction
and laws of the State, upon their cbie magis
trate. Many of you have, in the past, witness
ed like scenes, when some worthy sou of the
ancient commonwealth was inaugurated to the
same position, provided with abundant re
soutces, garnered in successive yea r s of pros
perlty, and charged by their skillful use, to
maiuUin her prestige and her honor, and ta
prets forward her illimitable progress to still
higher achievements in civilization. Tnen
eho was not inaptly ptyled the Empire State of
the South This significant epithet accorded,
not arrogated, implied the possession in large
meamire, of the elements and attributes that
combine to produce greatne, sin a State. It
extent of territoiy. salubrity of climate, fecun
dity of soil, mineial wealth, manufacturing fa
cilities and a rapidly increasing, virtuous, in
telligent and enterprising population, vigor
onsly improving these physical advantages, be
reliable indicia, Georgia did no violence to
truth in modestly accepting the distinction.
But war—the reproach ol Christian civiliza
tion ; the despoiler of the noblest monuments
of human progress—has swept ever her moun
tains and her plains, desolated her cities and
her fields, wasted her accumulated wealth*,
destroyed the labor system whence it sprung,
immolated thousands ol her strong meu und
brave youths, draped in mourning her matrons
and her maidens, aruj caused the crest she wore
so proudiy,to droop in temporary despondency.
All honor to her heroic dead, and sympathy
mmi asurable for the gemier tex, who bedew
'their memories with the tears of affection !
These deprrs-iug rifl-ictioua are indulged
In no spirit of reproach or repining Such
mischievous pastime can heul no wounds, re
pair no injuries. 1 sketch Georgia as she was
and as she is, because, from her abject pres
ent, ber glorious past must be re p oduced,
and excelled in tbe future This day the
mighty work of ro production begins Its in
ception, so far as depends upon governmental
agency, is devolved upon us ; and it were weli
tfat we look the lleiculoan task steadily in
h« face.
I advert to the desolation that now broods
over our beloved Klute, for the further pui pose
of impressing upon a suffering and expectant
constituency, the peculiar embarrassments that
beset the services they demand of us Whilst
othey hope yet again to see ”!ho wilderness and
the solitary place made glad for them, and
the desert rejoice and blossom as the rose,’*
let them remember that &ll this is tbe woik of
time. Let them bear in mind, moreover, that
whilst it is the duty ot government to protect
and foster individual ‘ eutei prise’ that is itself
the gieat reproductive (agent which must lay
under contribution for the general weal the
forest and the oxo, the ioil and the plough,
the mine and the forge, the wateifall and the
loom, the locomotive that annihilates space,
and the steam that hieses at the burthens with
which men seek to task its latent power.
Then, Senators and Representatives, fully
appreciating the difficulties that encompass us,
modestly estimating our ability to surmount
them, relying upon tbe patient indulgence and
just judgment of a magnanimous constituency,
and, above all, trusting by a favoring Provi
donee, let us earnestly address ourselves to the
work before us, unappalled to its magnitude.
In the brief survey, appropriate t,© this oc
casion, of thti field of operation upon which
we are entering, we are led to consider first
our federal relations, and secondly, our home
interests. The Constitution of the United
States defines the former, and the Constitution
of the State ofGeorgia idicates our duty con
cerning the latter. In these two greatcharters
of liberty, thpre is no inherent cause of con
flict. As according to Republican theory all
government is but popular agency, so these
instruments construed together present to tbe
mind ot the inquirer, a clear, satisfactory divi
sion between the governments they severally
institute, of all tho powers necessary to the
public exigencies Yet we are admouished by
history written in blood, that conflict has
arisen in|the past. Originating partly in tbe too
eager advercasy of abstract theories, partly in
sectional jealiousies and antagonisms, and en
listing the evil passions of humanity, it waxed
florcer and fiercer as it progiessed in a series
of years, and culminated in the attempted
separation of some of the American States from
the remainder. Memories of common suffer
ings and common triumphs, aud anticipation
of an exalted deetiny within the reach of a
united, but unattainable by n divided people,
alike lost inetr powm uieu e minus. The
desire for triumph in the strife thus engen
dered, on b >tb sides, speciously assumed the
guise ot patriotism, and inspired men using a
common Shibboleth with mutual aversion.
Five years since Reason abandoned, and tbe
Sword assumed the arbitrament- We open not
that record of violence—would that wo could
stamp it with tho seal of oblivion 1 Now the
wager of battlo is over, and the award is
against us an parties to the issue, our whole
people have risen up, accepted it as by the
will of one inau. What valor failed to achieve,
wisdom has promptly renounced, and truth
berselt has set her signet to the attestation of
the deed.
In the recent remodeling of their Constitu
tion, the people ot Georgia have acknowledged
the Constitution, constitutional laws, and trea
ties of tbe United * States, as their supreme
law. This moans something more than a
yielding ot a contest, or an overture for res
toration. It means fidelity to the supreme
law iu all future legislative, executive, and ju
d cial action, aud in all future movements of
the People en masse. It implies a recognition
Os duty to, and interest in tho whole country,
as well as to and in tho State of Georgia. It is
of course predicated upou a reciprocal obliga
tion on tbe part of those to whom this pledge
is renewed. The institution of slavery, tbe
truitful source of discoid iu tho past, has been
effectually ei adicated from our social and po
litical systems. It can never again disturb
the harmony of our national deliberations,
without which the Federal Union must be a
curse instead of a blessiDg. If the whole pco
pie, repressings all promptings of sectional
feeling and interest, will faithfully observe
and obey the Federal Constitution, coming
events may lilt the veil which now covers re
cent demonstrations ot Providence, and disclose
to their rectified vision, iu striking contrast,
ruin caused by human tolly, and renovation
wrought by Divine Wisdom. After weeping
that has endured through a long night of civii
ijy may come in the morning ol re
anion.
not onr people yield to discouragement
In view of the t:\idy progress of reconstruction,
or of the suspicion and distrust so palpably
manifested towards them. Sustained by con
scious rectitude, let them mainta n with calm
and resolute diguity the position Lave
taken, and await the result. A tempest of un
surpassed fury has swept over our land. The
elements do not subside into their normal quiet
Instantaneously with the lull of the wind, ihp
sleep ot tbe lightning and the hush of the
thunder. The smoke ot a hundred battles does
not vanish ima raomeut. But the atmosphere
will clear ere long ; those who cannot now see
how men who recently fought with such des
peration against the United States, can so soon
become its real citizens, will then look at us
through a rectified medium. It will occur to
them that Valor aod Truth are twin sisters,
born of magnanimity, whose womb never did,
nor never will conceive treachery. Tuey will
then remember and appreciate the historical
fact that the States now returning, never con
fcdetated against the United States, until each
for hereell had, in open day, and in hearing of
all mankind, declared herself separated from
that l’ower. And although they will still hold
that act wroug in principle, and void iu fact,
they will find in it no taint cf duplicity. They
will look in vain through all the sanguinaiy
traces of war, for the trail of the serpent, lu
due time, consistency will command confidence;
and sincerity, like the diamond of the first
water, will assuredly win its own recognition
Then our too suspicious judges will marvel
less at our approved fealty, thau at their own
tardiness in discovering it. *
Be the process ot restoration long or short
when consumated, onr attitude will aj must
be that of stiict fidelity to the L' n oi
equality with our associates, and o Q ’
■untamed by an inner souse of unvuVP
tegrity.
Turning our attention to subjects ot b aie
administration, appertaining more directly to
tbe service upon which w«* are entering, the
mind involuntarily pauses upon the charged
relation between the Caucasian and African
jmm Inh .biting Qeorgia. Hew to secure ib <
I latter in th# positive er j iyment of tbe fred
: dom with which they have Mfccn suddenly in
vented, with the least possible detriment to
both, i« a problem full of pei;lex;;y, taxing all
the energies of aitrrte, upright intellect It is
believed that tbe victors in the war, by whom
the change has been wrought, and who took
the initiative of (le pr-cess, have realized in
lull forte its extensive difficulties. Its solu
tion has been already partially, and ere long
will possibly be fully, devolved up;n the
State* more immediately interested, and bet
ter qualified fur the work, by reason of the
greater familiarity with the characteristic tra
ol the negro, aud with the employ meet
which he Las been trained, and to wh ieh
ste: dy adherence should be encouraged.
The transition from sV ery to freedom cf
a large class is not a novel one in American
history. In several of the States it has been
effected without exterior intervention by a
process so gradual, that no shock bis been
feit in the labor system--uo phrenzied impulse
imparted to the liberated cia a s. Upon us it
has come like the sudden upheaving, the ter
rific trembling and the diatiacted engulpfcing
of the earthquake, in volcanic localities. Rut
however effected, and by whatever embarrass
ments encumbered, the fact is arc unplished -
unalterably fixed. The realization that it
is 9b is the first step towards the proper ad-
Uisf'ment of anew system, and that, lam per
suaded, is, in its vast magnitude, its tremen
dous consequences, clearly impt eased upon
ihe Southern mind.
Any ief< rente, in detail, to the action de
manded by the ersiis would be inappropriate
to this occasion, and is rondeicd unnecessary ’
by the prudent forecast ol the convention Te
centiy held, entrusting to five genf' - ;. u
equally distinguished for ability, r <•,
and benevolence, the work of pr.q „ud
digesting for your consideration a a of
code of laws adapted to the exigc-Kc-Z. of the
new situation. In it |you may find valuable
aid I recommend it to your serous considera
tion. «'
At this time I propose only a reference to
prominent points demanding attention, and gen
eral principles which should govern our action.
And first.l present to you a well merited plea
in behalf of the emancipated African. Hitherto
the faithful bondsman of the race from whose
persona! dominion he has just been disenthral
led, but upon whose berdgnity and justice he
still depends for protection and advancement,
he stand-, before you an object of peculiar inter
est. Happy in the past bondage, which lightly
taxed his physical energies, abundantly supplied
his wants, as well rn infancy and in old age, as
in vigorous manhood—as well in sickness as in
health—and which leaves him at its close im
measurably elevated above the contemporary na
tive of Alrica, descended from the same anccs
try, he looks anxiously to his future, and feels
that it is still measurably in the hands of the
proprietary race. It is undeniably tiue, that
during all the years of bis enslavement, he has
been marvellously quiet, profoundly content
with his condition. And what shall be said of
his deportment during the last half decade of
sad memories ? Whilst your strong men were
in the tented field, far away from unprotected
wives and children, he cultivated their lands,
tended their households, and rendered all ser
vile observances as when surrounded by the
usual controling agencies. And s'ince the fiat
of emancipation, which he neither forced nor
implored, although sometimes unsettled in his
purposes, and inconsistent in his service by con
tract (the natural result of a transition so sud
den and so thorough), I take you all to witness
that, in the main, his conduct has been praises
worthy, beyond all rational expecta'ion. Tell
me not of instances of insubordination as a
slave, and of indecorum as a treedman, that
have transpired in certain localities, or charac
terized particular individuals. These are ex
cep’ional eases, the gen ral rule being quite
otherwise. Do our own race render unvarying
obedience to the mandates of law 1 Are our
own offspring, through the years of minority,
always subordinate to parental authority ?
Shall, then, the less cultivated African be held
to a stricter accountability, or be judged by a
higher standard of moral rectitude 1 Tell me
not the race is ungrateful. The assertion is
against the truth of tradition and experience.—
I here declare that, in my judgment, their fideli
ty in the past, and their decorum under the dis
tressing influences of the present, are without a
parallel in history, and establish for them a
strong claim upon our favoring patronage. As
the governing class, individually and collective
|w 1 1_ ... l uiuuilCßß) lIHJrOUgQ
protection,incentives, by moral suasion, by ap
peals to their interest, and by just legal restraint,
to do right, that they may do well. Their
rights of person and property should be made
perfectly secure—so secure that they may real
ize their freedom and its benefits; and of it they
should be encouraged and stimulated to make
benefit. To this end the Courts must be open
ed to them, and they must be al owed, in - the as
sertion and defence therein ot their rights in
civil and criminal cases, the testimony of their
own race. As essential to their well being, they
should be guard.ed, on the one hand, against
the crafty machinations ol the designing, and
on the other, against the fatal delusion of social
and* political equality.
If there be any pseudo philanthropists who
are inclined to infuse into their minds this un
friendly delusion, or to preach to us the duty of
entering upon this leveling process, let them
open their mission by pointing to examples.—
Assuredly, there is not one to be found beneath
the broad expanse of our Constitution. The
necessity of subordiaation and dependence
should be riveted on their convictions. Such
degree of legal restraint as may be requisite to
this end, is enforced upon us, by a sudden
change of relation originated neither by,them
nor by us ; and, happily tor all parties, it need
not conflict with the unvarying observance of
the law of kindness, which tacilitates intercourse
between equals, and causes the inferior to rec
ognize in his superior a benefactor. No less
able than formerly to fill their accustomed des
partments ol labor, they should be - made to real
ize that this is not only compatible with, but an
indispensable condition of their altered status.
If won to the practice of honesty, sobriety, and
industry, they will be for us the best labori".;
class, and we to them the best emp!ov< - <0
world can furnish, because of the the ac-
quaintance between the classes. Isie. lv v. uh
reference to the present and the nc.;r mure.
Were jt now divulged that, in the changes to
be evolved by time, they are destined to attain
such advancement that, in their daily inter
course, they shall look in the face no superior,
all pbii sophy, other than Utopian—certainly
all American philosophy, as illustrated by prac
tice— would anticipate for them an antecedent
translation to other climes. Were Iso pre
sumptuous as to predict for them such a change,
both of condition and local habitation, all South
ern American voices would write in one loud
acclaim “So mote it be !” But our duty is with
the present; and encompassed os it is with diffi
culties, I say to you, Courage, Senators and
Representatives; resolutely and earnestly essay
to surmount ihem all. God is merciful! God is
mighty! God, in his abounding mercy, and in
the plenitude of his might, so dispose our for
tunes and theirs that each elass shall be to the
other a blessing, not a curse!
The public property and State Institutions
have suffered much from the positive ravages,
and indire t injuries of war. The penitentiary
edifice, although not entirely destroyed, has been
so far consumed by lire as to render it both inse
cure and insufficient for the purposes ot its erec
tion.
The Western and Atlantic railroad has been
restored to the State authorities in a dilapidated
condition, its trunk and branches hastily and
insutliciently repaired for temporary use, many
of the buildings important to it, and essential to
its successful operation, destroyed, and the roll
ing stock rendered far below the exigencies of
the service.
The sources of supply to the educational in
stitutions fostered by the State have been dried
up and new fountains must be opened to nour
ish them. The University, hitherto the nurse
ry of Statesmen, jurists, educators and ministers
of religion, founded and endow ed by our fore
lathers, and recognized by the convention recent
ly assembled in this Hall as the foster-child of
the State, has been of necessity, closed during
the war. Although bereft of former immedia'e
resources, without fault on their part, the trus
tees relying on the strength of their cl .im upon
the State recognized by the convention as the
basis of the Constitutional obligation superadded
by them, have determined to re-open thv inslitu
tion in January next
The Asylums for the lunatic, the blind and
the deaf and dumb, three mest beneficent chari
ties, are langu : shieg for lack of means.
The emancipation es slaves, heretofore con
stituting a large item of property, the unques
tionable failure of tbe banks (with few excep
tions) from causes "beyond their control, the ut
ter worthlessness, or great depreciation of many
public, corporate and private securities, and va
rious other losses, have materially diminished
the subjects ol taxation.
Even moderate taxation will be felt burden
somely by our impoverished people. But I doubt
not they will cheerfully bear any imposition
necessary to maintain great public interests, ana
avoid further suspensions of valuable institutions
and noble charities.
The indebtedness of the State is comparative
ly very small. She has investments far exceed
ing in value its entire amouru, and her other re
sources, though greatly diminished, are still
large. Her circumstances enjoin upon her
rulers, a strict ami wise economy, w hich is al
ways a public virtue, but justify no feeling of
despondency. There need be no paralysis ol the
body politic, no shrinking from the maintenance
of great public charities, and education and pro
cesses hitherto fostered.
The demoralizing influences of war upon a
considerable portion of our population are easily
discernible by the intelligent observer, r suiting
chiefly from the too great relaxation of legal re
straint. There is, however, a large haven of
virtue and intelligence, whose silently redeem
ing influence will materially aid the re-establish
■lu nt of law and order.
Peace returned—the machinery of Govern
ment once more put in operation—public and
private enterprise aroused from their long slum
ber— educational institutions reopened—our
and our altars with their h ly
ministrations frequented as of yore—and the
blessing of Almigh'y God overspreading and re
vivifying all earnest effors, GeYgia will illustrate
he teachings of adver ity, by speedily achieving
an enlarged prosperity.
Senators and Representatives, I tremble in
view of the part assigned me in this work of
renovation, and but for a steadfast reliance on
the Source of all wisdom and all power, I would
this moment relinquish the attempt. I can
promise you, and through you, our noble peo
ple, nought, but entire devo ion to the public
interest, and faithful effort to peiform the high
obligation I am about to assume. Iu your ap
pointed co-operation, I find a stay for my own
weakness. The fundamental law makes us co
laboreis, and, let us understand, in the begin
ning, that mutual distrust, producing discordant
counsels, will as uredly render nugatory our
whole service, and disappoint the just expectas
tion of a confidingj people. Perfect agree
ment in the two departments is not to be hoped,
Toleration of difference on particular points will
promote general harmony and co-operation. In
tolerance will be the iorerunner of misrule. In
this view of our relations, I tender you in ad
vance my confidence. I invoke yours in return;
and, anticipating a cordial reciprocity, I have
only to add, God map us all!' I am
take the oath of office.
Terrible and Swift Justice .-A fuw days since.
Mrs Headly, who lives in Union county Ken
tucky, had sold her land and received some
eight hundred or a thousand dollars in cash.
A day or two after she had received ike money
a traveling stanger called late in the evening
and desired to get lodging for the night. The
lady declined but the stranger insisted, and Mrp.
Headly consented to let him remvn over night.
At the usual hour of retiling, the stranger pro
ceeded up stairs to bed, Late in the night he
was arou-cd by the lady of tho house, who
told him that thero were three or four p neons
trying to break into the house; and sho be
lieved they were robbers, who had coma tin re
for tho purpose of trying to rob her of her
money.
The stjauger arose, Reized his pistol, and told
her to go down stairs and open the door and
get behind the door as she opened it, and he
would defend her. Placing himself so that he
could distinctly see by the light of the door
when any one entered, he gave the word, tho
lady op< ned the door, and in rushed a man
who no sooner placed bis foot on the dooi sill
than he foil deal from a bullet from the strau'
ger’s pistol.
A second man rushed in and fell dead by
the second shot. The third appeared and was
severely wounded byJhq. third JMWhYkii’ififi
him.
The men who had been killed were blacked,
and when the blacking had been washed otf
their faces, Mrs. Headly recognized with horror
her own son-in law as one of the men and the
ether was a near neighbor and friend.
It was believed that the wounded man
was her own srn We did rot learn the namcr,
of the parties killed, nor that of the stranger
who so providendaly appeared to save the old
lady, her money, and perhaps her life— Owens

First and Last Duel in Illinois. -In Ford’s
history of Illinois ho states that" the year 1820
was signalised by the first and last duel which
was ever fought in that State. It took place in
Belleville, St. Clair county, between Alphouso
Stewart and William Bennett, two obscure men.
The seconds had made it up to be a sham due),
to throw ridicule upon Beunett, the challenging
party. Stewart was in the secret but Bennett,
his adversary, was left to believe it a reality
They were to fight with rifles'; the guns were
loaded with blank cartridges; and Bennett,
somewhat suspecting a trick, rolled a ball into
h's guu, without the knowledge of the seconds
or oi the other party. The woid to fire was
given, and Stewart fell, mortally wounded.
Beunett made his escape, but two years after
ward he was arrested ia Aikausas, brought
back to the State, indicted, tried and convicted
of murder.
A great effort was made to procure his par
don, but Gov. Bond would yield to no entreat
ies in his favor ; and B-mnett suffered the pen
ally of the law by banging, in the presence of
a great multitude of people. This was the liivl
and last duel ever fought in the State by any
of citizens.
i Letter from Gen. Beauregard. —General
Beauregard has written the following letter to
a New Orleans paper:
New Orleans, Nov. 18, 18C5.
My dear Sir : I beg leave to thank you for
your article of the 27th of October, in reply to
an ungenerous attack upon me by the Paris
Azenir National, a paper which ought t’> be
satisfied that I am not a soldier of fortune.
When my native Stale, Louisiana", required
my service, I drew my sword without hesitation
as a son rushes to rescue his mother from the
torrent, without thought of h ; s own safety.
At oce time, in order to escape the hatred of
Ncrtbern fanatics, I thought of seeking refuge
in Brazil, but the generous sentiments express
ed by President Johnson towards the Southern
States have persuaders me, together with a
great mony other Confederate officers and
soldiers, to remain ia Louisiana. I prefer to
live there, poor and forgotten, than to be en
dowed v,#h honor and riches in a foreign
country.
With sit cere respect,
Your obedient serv’t,
G T. Beauregard-

COTTON IS TDK 801 TH.
Neil, Brothers & Go., of New Orleans, have
just issued a ekealar giving an account of
their pe socal investigations in regard to the
cotton ia the South. The Atlantic States have
been examined by one member of the firm,
Middle and Western Tennessee, North Alaba
ma and North and Central Mississippi by
another, and Arkansas, Louisiana, Red River
and J>X3s by a third. We will now proceed,
a« briefly as possible, to recapitulate their con
clusions as to the quantity of cotton remain
ing in the country at the end of the war, and
the crop of the present years:
Commencing with Georgia and Florida,
more information has been generally current
about the supply in ihise than in any otbor
•States, and we have found no reason to dissent
from what we consider the more general es
tiru fie of the sock of old cotton ‘remaining ou
tho Ist of May last, viz : 300,000 bales. Lose
is known about the new, and aDy little that
has been grown is so trifl ng aud scattered,
that any eummary of it must be a mer'e guess.
We put it at five per cent, of an old crop, or
30.000 bales, making a total of 330.0C0 for
/.he two Sta’rs. Tho receipts at Savannah
will net appear to confiim so large an estimate
as, owing to the want ot railway atcommoda
ton and low rivers, other outlets have beeu
t und,tuch as the Florida ports and tbo tail
way through Tennessee to the Ohio.
We have not visited the Carolinas, hut
from ali we have learned we put them down at
110 000 bales.
Alabama Went through the war, almost to
its close, with large reserves of cotton. The
Northern part ot the State, viz : that lying
near tho Tennessee River, it i« true, suffered
severely fox the latter half of the war, but it
was not till towards tho very close that much
cotton was destroyed lurtber South. At least
. 160,000 bales were destroyed at Montgomery
and a number cf other towns and villages.
We e.-timate that after all this destruction,
3G0,000 bales of old cotton remaincs in Ala
bama and on the line of the Mobile and Ohio
Railway, through Eastern Mississippi, deliver
able at Mobile, aud that the new crop of the
S’.me region will reach 40,000 bales. As
against those totals, viz ; 400,000 bales, 222,000
have already, since Ist May, been received,
1.-aving about 200 000 bls jet to come in.
We now come to the extensive region tribu
tary-to New Orleans. For miles on each side
of the Mississippi, nardly any old cotton re
mains, and the patches of now are few and far
between. The lower Yazoo is pretty well
cleared, but the Upper river has still stocks,
tbe river being uncertain, up one week and
down the next. At present it is low. Arkan
sas has yet delivered little’and must have a
fair suoply remaining in the Arkansas River
and White River countries, but Memphis will
get the bulk of it. The Ouachita has a good
deal of cotton on its western side, having only
been up tor a few weeks, in August, when it
delivered 13,000 bales, against 3,000 to 4,000
baleq in previous and subsequent months. On
its eastern side little remains, tho greater part
having been hauled to the Mississippi. The
Lower Red River has been well cleared, but
the Upper or Texas section of it has a good
deal ot cotton still. Our conclusion, on the
whole, is that New Orleans bae, since the Ist of
May, got abcut two thirds of the whole cotton
which remained in this section after the sur
render. We estimate the total of old at G40,-
000 and of new at 60,000- bales. The receipts
till date are 431,000 oa'es.
We have not yet touched on Texas proper,
that is Texas so far as tributary to- its own
ports, Galveston, etc. This State suffered fit
tie from the war, but a large proportion of itß
©ld cotton was carried to Matamoras during
the last two years, and we do not esti
mate the remaining stock in May last at more
than 90'000 bales There was this season an
extensive area planted, but the crop suffered
severely from the army worm, and partially,
from detective cultivation and picking, owing
to thedisorganizuion of labor, so that 100,000
bales is as high as we can fairly estimate it.
We to deal with Tennessee and
the contiguous sections of Alabama, Missis
sippi and Arkansas, which deliver at Memphis
and Nashville, besides forwarding a good deal
of cotton to St.”Lou!B,[Louisxill.H and Cincinnati.
The deliveries, at these points-till date, since
May already amount to 206,000 bales, and we
cmnolthink that the total will fall of 320.-
on ftu¥ f esTilfißVe 'of the”total of old and new is
therefore 2,000,000 to 2,100,000 bales.
The receipts prior ter Ist September have
for some weeks been currently stated at 369,-
000 bales, inclusive of 33,000 bales, captured
cotton, received from Savannah before the
end of the war. We do not think this item
should be counted, but excluding it, we find
that the actual receipts before the Ist of Sep
tember amounted to 415,968, and in this, we
do not include what could at present only be
an estimate, the receipts prior to Ist Septem
ber at St Louis, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Phila
delphia, Boston,
A good deal of the old Cotton is of course
in very bad condition, but we do not estimate
the quantity" total,y unfit to spin at more than
100.U0O balea, although considerably more
than this may Lave to be sold as damaged. In
the meantime the whole will be counted as
cotton ana show in the statistics.
Mr. Sumner's Terms.— The following are
Ike resolutions, in full,introduced in the U. S.
Senate by Mr. Sumner on the first day’s ses-.
sion. It shows tho programme he intends to
carry out if he can muster strength enough :
Resolved, That in order to provide proper
guaranties for security in the future, so that
peace and prosperity shall surely prevail, and
the plighted faith of the nation shall be pre
served, it is the full duty of Congress to take
caie that no State declared to be in rebellion
shall be allowed to resume its relation to the
Union until after the satisfactory performance
of five several conditions, which conditions
precedent must be submitted to a popular
vote, and be sanctioned by a majority of the
people of each State respectively as follows :
The complete re establishment of loyalty, as
skvwn by an honest recognition of tho unity
of the republic and the duty of allegiance to it
at all times, without mental reservation or
equivocation of any kind.
The complete suppression of all oligarchical
pretensions, and the complete enfranchisement
of all cit’zjcis, so that there shall be no de
nial of rights on account of color or race, but
justice shah be putial, and all shall be equal
before the law.
The rejection of the rebel debt, and at the
same time the adoption in just proportion of
the national debt aud the national obligation
to Union soidieiß, with solemn pledges never
to join in any. measure, direct or indirect, for
their ref ud anon, or in any way teuding to
impair the national credit.
''due organization of an educational system
for the equal benefit of all, without distinction
of color or race, .
The choice of citizens for cfiice, whether
State oi national, of constant and undoubted
loyalty, vsose conduct aud conversation Bhall
give assurance of peace and reconciliation.
Resolved, That ia order to provide these es
sentia! safeguards, without which the nation
al security and the national faith will be im
periled, States cannot be pre-eprated back to
political power aud independence, but they
must wait until these conditions are iu all
respects fulfilled.”
A Passion fcr Watches.— ln the city of Bos
ion tkeie is a i indiv dual who may be said to
have a perfect passion for watches. lie is the
possessor of come fifteen or twenty, if not a
counie of dtzen oi them. They are all made
of the finest gold and are not only of the nicest
workmanship, but very costly and valuable
timekeepers. One abounds in pear’s, another
in diamot ds, and another in all sorts of pre
cious stones: and the dial, case and interior of
each differ from that of each of the others. One
strikes like a minature clock every hour,
another is a repeater and tells the quarters,
while another seems 1 1 s ng like a littie bird.
One or two are uncommonly large and massive,
having gold cases nearly a quarter of an inch
in tiPckness; ethers are as small as a lady’s
w itch. Each pojesses its own p irtiuular and
elegant her-, chain ands al. Srate are kept in
cue room of the house and some ia another and
each is wound up and cared for every day by
ta° hind cf the same owner, whose taste and
passion for watches and the'r appendages a
as great as that of otner people for paintingia
plate, medals or sculpture.

Ruined bt thk War. —The New Orleans
Cresent tells this story: A relic of tho past is
seen in a man, bearing upon bis face and body
the impress of many years. This man walks
tha streets daily, bearing the marks of mis
fortune, amid the friends he had known in bet
ter years, but with appearance so changed that
one can hardly recognize in him Mercutio of
the Cresent city, the gay, witty aud elegant
gentleman, who was at one time the very lead
er of fashion. Seedy habilments, a bent body
and wrinkle] face, have nearly obliterated all
in him that was familiar in the past. Inherit
ing a gr,,=at fortune he incrersed it largely by
marriage, and from h’s proiesston at the bar,
had,an income of fotty or fifty thosand dollars a
year, aud receive! a single "fee of sixty thou
sand dollars upon a claim on real estate in the
lower part of the city This wealth he scattered
with princely generosity and royal profusion.
He was a Lucullus at home, trod hiali ospitali
ties aspire 1 to*all the magnificence of the an
cient Rotnai) Nobleman In 1837 he gave a
single soiree that cost.s2s 000, and which ex
ceeded in splendor anything ever bofore known
here. The very floors over which the dancers
moved were covered with scenic
'Orleans; and in the saloon where gam
ing tables were arranged stood two baskets
one filled with bank notes and the other with
gold, for the use ot those guests who were un
fortunate with the fickle goddess. The dis
penser of this gorgeous hospitality is now do
pendent upon nis relatives. He tukes his loss
with Clmstain resignation, and does not fly from
the world aud rail against it, like Timon of
Athens, but moves through the wotld with
a pleasant and urbane manner, as it ho had
still tho princely fortune at command.
Trouble at Fenian Headquarters.— Accord
ing to (he Now York papers there is trouble
at the Feui in Headquarteis in that city. One of
them gives he an account of affaire :
Among 'he thnges against O’Mahony,
President A the F *nian Brotherhood, is a vio
lation oi oath; in refusing to communicate
with the Senate ; refusing to enable the Stand
ing Finance Committee of Ihe Senate to obtain
books and accounts ; having placed in official
positions and salaried seveial parties rejected
by the Senate when presented for confirmation,
and other pi-r.sons with salaries who had never
been subm tied ; for siicn confirmation having
kim*lf usurped the position of agent of the
Irish Republic after being peremtorily rejected
for wd£ position by the senate; having issued
bonds with his own namo on them as agent ;
having wastefully expended money by paying
immewte rent, e’ghteen months in advance for
a mansion on Union Square, and lodging
another large sum for the same period to pro
vide against damages to said building, and hav
ing refused to pay over to the Secretary of war
money that had been appropiated for war pur
poses by the Senate
It is charged that largo sums of money have
been used for speculating in gold and other
purposes by individuals President O’Mahony
and his cabinet charges the Senate with having
acted improperly on various occasions in con
verting funds to their own purposes. It is also
charged that the agent sent to Ireland sold out
to the British Government, and caused tRe ar
rest of Stephens' at Dublin. The charge
against B O. inkellion-nre perfidity and mal
feasance in lefusing to pay money when order
ed, and paying out large sums when there
was no authority.
