Notice. —All persons indebted for sub scriptions will have their papers discon tinued at tbe expiration of this month unless payment is made before that time. While regretting to sever existing rela tions with any of our subscribers, justice to ourselves and our employees demands this course at our hands. We have en deavored, in our conduct of the Chroni ci.e & Sentinel, to uphold the honor and interests of our beloved State, and we take this occasion to thank those of our readers who have paid up their indebtedness. Wo hope those still in arrears wiil pay up promptly and thereby secure a continuance of our paper. Guano. —The attention of planters and farmers is directed to the card of Wilcox, Gibbs Si Cos., who are constantly receiving Phoenix, Manipulated and Peruvian Guanos, and which they offer for cash or credit for approved city acceptance. Ammonia Phosphate. —The Augusta Fertilizer Manufacturing Company has fixed tho price of its Ammonia Phos phate at two cents per pound. It will be sold in small lots. 11. T. l’eay & Cos., T. 11. Rhodes & Cos., James M. Dye & Cos., and J. A. Ansley Sc Cos., will fill all orders. See advertisement. Fashions. — P. Quinn, newsdealer, lias laid on our table a copy of Madarno Demorest’s Magazine for February. It is oue of tbe handsomest and most interest ing Magazines publisliod, and will bo eagerly sought for by the ladies, to whom it is especially adapted. I.m poiitant Decision. —Tho Supreme Court lias delivered its decision in the case of Stephen D. Heard vs. The Mechanics’ Hank, carried up from this county, and has confirmed tho decision of Judge Ueose that there had been no legal surrender of the /lank charier. This is a very important decision, and authoritatively settles a main point on which the Banks rely to avoid their liabiii ty on their notes. The decision is against the Hanks, and they will now be compelled to fall back upon some other pica to relieve themselves and their stockholders from liability on their outstanding circulation. Another Remarkable Cure of Deafness and Ulceration or Dis i harder from thk Ears.—This is to certify that my little daughter, aged 13 years, who has been suffering from deaf ness and discharges from her ears, from cold contracted in her infancy, has com pletely recovered her bearing, and has been entirely relieved from all symptons of dis ease under Dr. DeLacoe’s treatment, with out any painful surgical operation, after all other treatment had failed to give re lief. 11. L. Gamble. Augusta, January 11, 186$. The above card from one of our promi nent citizens bears testimony to tbe fact that his daughter, who had been suffering for years from deafness and discharges from her ears, lias been cured under the treat ment of Dr. DeLaeoe. The afflicted should call on Dr. DeLacee at the Augusta Hotel. lie takes no cases that he cannot cure within a reasonable timo. Not Dead. —Patrick Sharkey, tho fa mous son of Yuiean, who was reported by the Republican Friday morning to have been killed instantly b> a kick from a muio, called upen us yesterday and made us very sensible of tho fact that lie still lives, and was never in better health than at present. He requests us to say to his friends thatho is still prepared to do the best shoeing in town, and any other work iu his line, at prices to suit the times. Important to Planters and Farm ers.—Messrs. J. A. Ansley & Cos. are the agents for the sale of Elerbe’s Plant Transplanter, patented October 16, 1866. We have seen the Transplanter. It will prove of great advantage to the farmer and especially gardeners. Plants can be taken up and transplanted without disturbing the roots. The in venter, Mr. Elerbe, is a South Carolinian, and at present a citizen of Camden, S. C. Chase ash Catturk. —One of the new ly enfranchised, not having the wherewith to buy his “lady" a shawl, concluded to get one without it, thinking, no doubt, that the right to vote gave him the right to takt what belongs to other people. The frcodman in question made a sortie on the store of Messrs. Toler A Cos., dry goods merchants, and appropriated unto him self a shawl, giving leg-bail for the price of it. He ran up Broad into Metcalfs Alley, but the clerk in the store proved to be more swift of foot and overhauled the freedman, turning him over to a police man, who escorted him to the City Hal!. Ill'n away. —Our brother Randall, of the Cotuti, Friday met with a sad mis hap. Mr. Hammond, his brother-in-law, was driving his buggy into town to take him home, when, on getting in the neigh borhood of Lincoln street, on Broad, the horse took fright at the appearance of one of the street ears, and dashed madly up the street, lie had not proceeded far, however, before he shied and ran full tilt against one of the trees in the centre of the street, knocking himself senseless, and otherwise wounding himself severely Mr. Hammond was thrown over the boot by the collision with the tree but, for tunately, not hurt. The horse was a noble animal and, though shieing occasionally, had never run off before. Ho appeared to be suffering very much when we saw him, and we learned last night that he died from the injuries he received. The buggy was but little injured. Edi tors are always uufortunate, but we hope our worthy and esteemed Iricnd will soon be enabled to replace his loss. Information Wanted. j Recently when the office of Ordinary of j Richmond county became vacant by the ; death of the late incumbent, the Military Comm, dor of District No. 3 appointed a gentleman of this city to fill the vacancy, j Tbe qu ition was raised whether a military appointee should be required to give the j bond fixed by Ahe laws of the State for that , office. The question was referred to the Military Headquarters at Atlanta (or a ) decision, and the written instructions re- j turned here were, that all the require- j meats of the State law as to duties, qualifi cations and bond must be strictly adhered to. So far so good. The laws of Georgia require that “the State Treasurer shall give a bond, with sufficient securities, to be approved by the Governor, in the sum of two hundred thou sand dollars for the faithful performance of all the duties of his said office, and ail such duties as shaii be required of Lim by the General Assembly or the laws of this State, and for a faithful account of all the public money or effects which may come into his bands during his continuance in office." The laws of Georgia require the Comptroller General to give al nd for the sum of twenty thousand dollars, with like conditions and subject to the same rules and regulations as are prescribed for tbe Treasurer. We would like to know—the tax payers of the State would like to know —the friends of honest, good ' government throughout the Union would like to know whether the recently appointed Vermont Treasurer Rockwell, arid Captain Charles Wheaton, Comptroller General, have been required to give the bonds established by law, and if they have been filed in the Executive office at Milledgeville. Can our Milledgevilie cotemporari.s give us any information on this subject ? YVe would like to know, also, who the parties are who the Military Governor have accepted as sufficient securities. The Alabama Conservatives. The Executive Committee of the Con servative party of Alabama, at a recent meeting held in Montgomery, adopted resolutions advising the opponents of negro supremacy not to vote on the ques tion of ratification of the State Constitu tion framed by the recent negro Conven tion of that State; No reasons Lave yet been given for this advice, though we learn from the Mont gomery papers that an address has been prepared, and will shortly be published, iu which tho committee will explain why they haye recommended the policy of non action. We confess, that as at present advised, we doubt the propriety of the committee’s action. Congress will, we think, pass over tbe President’s veto the pending amend ment to the Military Bills, declaring that a majority oi the votes cast on the question of ratification bhall be sufficient to ratify the State Constitutions. In such eveut the course advised by the Alabama com mittee insures tho adoption of tho infa mous Constitution which has been framed for the subjugation and disfranchisement of the white race in that State. A few hundrod Yankee emmissaries and ignorant negroes wiil bo permitted to take undis puted possession of the State government, and fill al! the offices—executive, legislative and judicial. Who can depict the horrors of such rule? The conditiou of the people of Tennessee, terrible as it most unques tionably is, will be a paradise as compared to that of Alabama. We look, with considerable anxiety, for the reasons which tho committee wiil give for the course they recommend. The action of the Alabama Conservatives will doubtless influence, to a certain extent, the lino of policy which our own State will j adopt , and in this view of the matter we feel a deep interest in the action of our Alabama friends. Charleston Hotel. The travelling public will find, iu this old and popular in stitution, one of the best hotels in the country. In the midst of the general stag nation which now Pervades all departments ofbusinuss iu the South, the old Charleston sustains its ante helium reputation for good living and first class,appointments. Major J. P. llorbach, late of Columbus, Ga., is tho present proprietor, so that all Geor gians will be sure tojrcceivo a hospitable re ception on reaching tho Charleston Hotel. Educational. —We tako pleasure in directing tho attention of parents and guardians to the excellent school of Carlton Hillycr, Esq., now in successful opera tion. Located at Athens, so well hnown for the refinement and culture of its citi zens, aud being supplied with all tho ap pliances for a thorough course of teaching, with competent instructors, this school deserves to receive a large patronage. Students are prepared for any class in Col lege, or may have the advantage of a practical education which will fit them to enter into mercantile life. For terms, etc., apply to Carlton Ilillyer, Esq., Athens, Georgia. _ Death of Major Louis DeLaigle.— Wo are pained to announce the death of Major Louis DeLaigle, in the 37th year of his ago, which sad event occurred Sat urday morning. Stricken down by an attack of pneumonia which confined him to his bed for three weeks, he recovered and was in town only a few days since. He was, unfortunately, taken down by a relapse, which terminated in his death. Major DeLaigle was the eldest son of tho late Charles DeLaigle, Esq. Dorn and raised in this community his death leaves a sad void among a large family connec tion and a host of friends and acquaint ances. Important, —The address of Col. Cole, in compliance with the understanding at the recent Railroad Convention held in Atlanta, will attract the attention it so emi nently deserves. The Southern States have been holding out inducements toimmigrauts to come down this way and settle, setting forth the advantages to be derived. Ac., but in no instance has a motion been made to reduce the expense of transportation for themselves, families and luggage over our railroads uutil the assembling o’s this Con vention in Atlanta. And the fact that it offers to reduce the travel to them to one cent per mile, children half price and luggage to two cents per ton is quite a desideratum. This proposition, standing on its own merits, is an excellent one ; but it requires co-operation—co-operation of railroads, tdowners aud agriculturists, than whom there are none more interested. It is pretty generally admitted that it is idle to depend on the freedmeu for labor, as they will never work so long as they can subset without it. Means must be adopted to secure a more thrifty and in dustrious class among us, and to this end all the incentives must be pushed forward, expense being a very important one. This Convention steps in and makes the first generous offer. Let it be seconded by the hearty and zealous co-operation of our railroad companies, merchants, landowners and agriculturists. As this is an important matter, we shall revert to it again during the coming week. We now simply invite attention to Col. Cole's circular on this page.

C. Drum, A. A. G. A party of gentlemen, to the number of sixty, have purchased the portrait of Chief Justice Marshall, by Rembrandt Peale. for $3,00G, and propose to present it to Chief Justice Chase. The Boston Pest well and pointedly says: “That was a fine stroke of satire present ing Chief Justice Chase with a portrait of Marshall. Fancy Marshall electioneering as Chase is.” j BY TELEGRAPH. ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES. From Milledgeville. Augusta, January 16, p. m.—Private accounts from Milledgeville «tate that General Huger and Captain Rockwell have taken charge of the Executive aud Treas ury Departments of Georgia, in accordance with General Meade’s order, and entered upon the discharge of their duties respect ively.

Montgomery, January 16, noon.— A meeting of the leading citizens of Alabama has been in sessiop here for two days. Af ter calm and patient deliberation, the fol lowing resolutions were unanimously adopted : J. Resolved, That we recommend to the people of Alabama opposed to the Consti tution proposed by the Convention lately in session at Montgomery, to abstiin from voting at all at the election to be held on the 4th and sth of February, either upon the question of ratifymg or rejecting that Constitution, or for candidates for offices under it. 2. Resolved , That we also recommtnd to the opponents of said proposed Consti tution that they form and maintain effect ual political organizations among them selves in every portion of the State, until they are delivered from the perils which are impending. The 30th day of January was recom mended to the people of the State as a day of fasting and prayer to Almighty God to deliver the people of Alabama from tbe horrors of negro dominion. An Address wa3 also adopted, setting forth to the people of Alabama and tbe world the reasons prompting the white people of Alabama to abstain from the polls. From Atlanta. Atlanta, January 16, p. in.— A general order was issued this morning directing military officers to co-operate with civil au thorities to repress and punish crime, but to take cognizance themselves of cases where it is believed there will otherwise be a failure of impartial justice. Writs of habeas corpus are to be obeyed so far as to produce the body, and make a respectful return, but custody is not to be surren dered. A Convention of Southern Railroads, held here yesterday, issues a circular to-day proposing, whenever twenty Roads shall agree, to transport immigrants atl cent per mile and 2 cents per ton per mile for bag gage over 150 pounds ; immigrants settling on the lino of any Road, to be transported with effects free by that Road. No funds were found in the State Treas ury by the Army officer detailed as Treas urer. SENATE. Washington, January 16, p. m. — The Chair presented a communication from E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War, enclosing a list of volunteer officers now.in service. The Cotton Tax came up and a motion made that the Senate recede from its amendments, but insert a proviso exempt ing imported cotton from duty after July. The matter was postponed. A bill reorganizing the Treasury De partment was introduced and referred to the Finance Committee. Several matters of minor importance were discussed, when the deficiency ap propriation for the Reconstruction Acts, &c., was taken up and passed with some amendments. After an ineffectual attempt to resume the Cotton Tax, the Senate adjourned. HOUSE. The Secretary of the Treasury was asked whether H. S. Weiles had complied with the contract for removing obstructions from the Savannah river. A bill granting land to extend the Dubuque and Sioux City railroad was passed. The House proceeded to discuss the new Reconstruction Bill, until four o’clock, when it took a recess to half-past seven.. SENATE. Washington, January 17, p. m. —No session. HOUSE. The Ways and Means Committee report ed anti-contraction with recommendations of non-concurrence with the Senate amend ment. Adopted. Several private Bills were disposed of. The vote on Reconstruction was post poned to Monday, with a session to morrow, for debate only. Discussion re sumed. Brooks made a strong speech in opposition. Alluding to the Radical pro gramme he said we don’t intend to be ruled by any such government as that, and tbe process of legislation by which it is to be reached will be undone by the people. Many of the opposition members are act ing iu utter defiance of the expressed wiii of their constituents. Referring to the Supreme Court Bill Brooks said, you may overthrow Andrew Johnson —you may destroy the Executive—you may turn whole States into Ilaytis, Jamaicas and Africas—but when you throw yourselves against that bulwark of tho Constitution your puny arms will shake and quiver and be blasted in the first blow you strike against it. Hubbard, of Connecticut, followed in bitter denunciation of the Bill and the emasculation of the Supreme Court. He denounced the proposed legislation as felony against the States. He would not say Congress was infamous but this Bill was more than infamous, lie gave notice that should Grant accept the law and carry it out as proposed he would break his back before the people. lie would forfeit ail the honors he bad won. This Bill and all others were got up for Africanizing the States, thus llepublicanizing them and making use of them to neutralize majorities at the North. The debate proceeded, tho Republicans evidently on the defensive throughout.

Coixmbus, January 18, p. m. —The Democrats have matured plans for re-dis tricting Ohio, by which only two Radical Congressmen will be returned from that State. _ From Washington. Washington, January IS, nocn. —The Senate's adjournment from Thursday to Monday discourages extremists. Its apathy is denounced arid it is almost cer tain that the Bills changing the Supreme Court and degrading Hancock will fail of two-thirds in the Senate. Senator Anthony’s paper opposed the emasculation and letters from soldiers in ah parts of the country are pouring in protesting against the degradation of the Bill impairing the army by mustering out General Hancock. It will probably die in the House. Green, of the Boston Post, telegraphs his eonespondents here that the excite ment throughout New England is intense. Howard writes a letter remonstrating with negroes who, having been provided with homes North and West, areabandon ‘ ing their places and spending their earn -1 iDsrs coming back. Washington, January 1 8, p. m. —The National Bank ofTexas, at Galveston, has : ceased to be a public depository. Members of the Military Committee i consulted Grant previous to his recent action and found him adverse to reducing • the army.

There was a serious lack of men both in the j South and on the frontiers; in the Depart ments of the Lakes barely enough men had been left to take proper care of the forts. ■ All quiet at the War Department. Revenue receipts to-day $460,000; for i the week $2,175,000 ; for the year $109,- j 758,000. National Bank finances are without ma terial change.

Georgia Radical Negro Convention. .Atlanta, January 18, p. m.—General Meade sent in a communication, dated yesterday, to the Convention this morning, which, after acknowledging the receipt of the resolution asking for pay, says; “I h&ve this day received information from the Ireasurer that there are no funds in the Treasury at Milledgeville. I have aiso been reliably informed that some of the public institutions of the State have been suffering on account of the non-pay ment of the appropriations for their sup port. W hether this failure of payment has been on account of the want of means in the State Treasury, or for other reasons, I am not at present advised. I shall use my best efforts to secure, without delay, the means of paying the incidental expenses of the Convention, and at least a portion of the per diem, and mileage of the members. If I find, on investigation, that any funds which should be in the State Treasury have been placed beyond my reach, I may deem it necessary to suspend, temporarily, the payment of a portion of the current salaries of al! officers who receive their pay either from the State Treasury or the State road. You will perceive, from the facts above stated, that it is out of my power at present to comply with the request of the Convention, much as 1 desire to do so. In lieu of granting this authority, I respectfully request that the requisition of jour disbursing agent may be sent to me for my approval, that I may see that such funds of the State as may become availablejbe properly distrib uted according to the public necessities.” The Convention refused, almost unani mously, to suspend the rules to consider a resolution asking the Federal authorities to make advances for payment of the Con vention expenses; and also tabled a reso lution to appoint a committee of three delegates to examine the State Treasury. Sections eight and nine of the Bill of Rights of the old Constitution were adopted. One delegate gavo another the lie during to-day’s session—a quarrel arising out of the non-receipt of pay. Both caught up their chairs, but violence was averted and mutual apologies made. General Meade has issued an order validating the relief ordinance of the Convention with the exception that exe cution is not to bo stayed in cases of taxes or laborer’s wages.

Louisiana Radical Negro Convention. New Orleans, January 18, p. m. —In the Convention a resolution was adopted fixing the hours of daily session from It) A. M. to 4 P. M. Cromwell, colored, said he was opposed to any steps looking toward a speedy com pletion of the Convention’s business and permanent adjournment until the question of funds had been definitely settled. A communication was received from General Hancock stating that having re ceived information from General Sheridan to the effect that he had intended paying commissioners of election the same as for delegates to the Convention, General Hancock had ordered their payment out of the reconstruction fund. A communication was read from Gen eral Hancock to the Committee appointed to_ confer with him relative to the collection of tax levied by the Convention. Genera! Hancock says by the ordinance levying the tax the Convention prescribed a mode for its collection. That ordinance makes it the duty of the Auditor to direct sheriffs and tax collectors to enforce the payment. Should any such person be forcibly resisted the Major General Com manding will promptly use tbe military power to maintain thesiiprewacy ofthe law. To this extent he has authority to act but it is not his province to interfere in the matter in any other way. Marine Sews. New York.

Twenty-first Day’s Proceedings or the Georgia Unconstitutional Convention. REPORTED FOR the ATLANTA DAILY IN TELLIGENCER. Friday, January 17. The Convention opened with prayer— Mr. Parrott in the Chair. The Journal was read. II V M Miller moved that tho rules be suspended in order that the report, of the Committee on Militia be taken .up for action and tbe usual number printed. The rules were suspended and the motion to print adopted. GENERAL MEADE. M A Potts banded in a resolution which was read as follows: Resolved , That this Convention do unanimously tender their thanks to Gen. Meade, Military Commander of the Dis trict, for the course he is pursuing in regard to reconstruction. John Harris thought the motion was rather in advance. lie agreed in part with it, but he did not believe that he should remove persons from civil State offices and fili those offices with military men in every case. He moved that tho motion lay on the table for the present. A T Akerman moved that the words “has pursued” instead of “is pursuing” be substituted. The substitute was accepted and the rules suspended. The resolution was then put to the house and carried—the following, with a few others, voting “no” in every case; Foster of Paulding, Fields, Martin of Carroll, Gore, Waddell, Harrison of Car roll, Burnett, Harriss of Newton, Griffin, Hooks, Christian, Holcombe, Martin of Calhoun and Hudson. THE BILL OF RIGHTS. B Conley moved that the house resolve itself into Committee of tho Whole for the purpose of taking up tho Bill of Rights. I Seeley offered a resolution to the effect that no member addressing the Committee should occupy a longer time than ten minutes on any one ouestion, unless by a vote of the majority of tho Committee. It was sometimes the course when the House of Representatives of the United States resolved, itself into a Committee of the Whole to limit speakers to five'minutes, and he thought that this’body ought to be satisfied with ten. A T Akerman was opposed to the reso lution. He was opposed to the right of discussion being stifled. J E Blount was also opposed to the gag ging of members when questions of so grave a character were up for discussion, and thought such an idea was an outrage. The motion was withdrawn. J R Parrott moved that, as they bad no rules to govern them, they adopt the rides by which the House of Representatives of the United States wore governed in Com mittee of the Whole except that limiting debate. I. Seeioy moved to strike out the word “except.” The question limiting debate was putand lost. A division was called for, but the call was suppressed immediately upon Aaron Aipeoria Bradley [negro), from Boston, standing up and, in a half sneering man ner, saying, “Not at all—it is not seriously necessary. ’ ’ The motion was then put and carried, and the rules of Congress adopted. ' FIFTH SECTION OF THE CONSTITUTION. The consideration of this section was taken up. R II Whiteiy moved that the fifth sec tion be struck out as he thought that the matter properly belonged to a legislative body. G W Ashburn moved that the section be adopted. The section read as follows : “The punishment of all frauds shall be provided by law.” J L Dunning moved that it be amended by inserting after the word “provided” the word “for,” which he withdrew after some discussion. The question was then put to the house and adopted, and the SIXTH SECTION. Was taken up, which read as follows : “The writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended unless in case of rebellion the public safety may require it.” G W Ashburn moved the adoption of this section. Madison Beil moved an amendment by inserting after the word “rebellion” the words “or invasion.” G W Ashburn'accepted the amendment. The amendment was put and carried. The ayes jand nayes were then taken on the section as amended, and it was carried. SEVENTH SECTION. G W Ashburn moved the adoption of the seventh section. E L Higbee moved an addition to the section making it read as follows : “But the General Assembly may pass laws to prevent persons from carrying con cealed weapons.” Madison Bell moved an amendment by inserting at the end the words, “But the secret carrying of deadly weapons shall be prohibted by iaw.” Several members spoke on the question. D (J Cotting moved the following amend ment ; “But this provision shall not be con strued as permitting the practice of carry ing concealed deadly weapons.” Lost. Madison Bell proposed an amendment as follows : “To insert at the end the words ‘the secret carrying of deadly weapons are prohibited by law.’ ” The amendment was favored by L L Stanford and J S Bigbee in cogent and forcible terras. Lost. L L Stand ford offered the following amendment: “Carrying deadly concealed weapons shall be prohibited by law.” J E Blount spoke at some length on the subject and in favor of the last amendment. He could see no other way of striking at the root of the evil or prevent the carry j ing of concealed deadly _ weapons. He gave some striking evidences of crime which had come under his observation, and referred to the fact of the blacks carry ing arms, and said he had always forbid den them to do so. He had never car i ried a deadly weapon in his life and he never would do so. He thought it was the surest evidence that a maD wanted to hurt somebody when he carried concealed weapons, and the man who had right and justice on his side and meant to keep the peace had no need for them. It was only the coward and the ruffian that carried arms, and such should be held amenable to the law. Aaron _ Alpeoria Bradley (negro) up , again, said : “Will the gentleman allow 1 me to ask a question ? J E Blount (coldlyatid somewhat aggra vated at the untiring thirst for interrup tion exhibited by Bradley), replied: Yes, ■go on. Alpeoria smiled—as much as to i say, “Well, don’t get mad, because I don t care one fig for you.” J E Blount 1 —“Go on with the question quick—l'm | in a hurry.” Aaron. Alpeoria Bradley (negro)— “What would you think if a Judge was to give a man permission to carry arm#; when he knew it was in self-defence?’’ “Put him in jail,” said the speaker; “put him out of office.” And now, said he, very excitedly, and pulling up his sleeves, let me alone; I want to unravel this whole matter; I want to turn it inside out and unwind it. He then proceeded at great leneth and with great vehemence to dilate upon the benefits that were likely to flow, from the adoption of the amendment, to the country, and to society; and he concluded by expressing a hope that the Convention would adopt it. A W Holcombe said he thought it was a most extraordinary proceeding for men who had come here to restore order, and "harmonize all classes in the State, to make it necessary that every eitizea in the State of Georgia should arm himself to defend his life and protect himself from every man he met on the road. Instead of-giving a license to wicked and evil-dis posed persons, they should do everything m their power to restrain the passions and calm down the prejudices of men. This was a position to which none could object, and if, instead of doing this, they made laws which fostered crime and riot in the land, posterity would have reason to look back to them with censure, and the mani fold outrages to which, in our own times, they gave rise, would bring disgrace and dissension in their midst. It appeared to him as if most of the gentlemen thought of nothing but the arming of the negroes, and were forgetful of the evil passions which such a course might lead to ; but, for himself, he could only say to them, do as becomes men who are assembled to make important laws to restrain crime. Take out of the hands of every one the weapon by which crimes may be commit ted, and. by doing this, they would bring down upon them the blessings and the respect of mankind in general. AARON ALPEORIA BRADLEY Up again, spoke of the efforts of some persons to give the white men the privilege of.going up to every poor colored man they met on the road, taking a hold of him,vand searching him for arms. He wanted the colored man to have the right to carry about with him a means of defence. T G Campbell, another negro, made a speech ou the question, ahd wo do not hesitate to say that if there was nothing in the speech there was at least in his actions and bearing a visible respect for those around him. . The rules were suspended for the pur pose of taking up the amendment of A T Akerman, and after counting the votes on the amendment it was found they stood— ayes, 59; nays, 59. The Chairman having the deciding vote he decided in the affirmative, and the amendment was declared carried. The vote was next taken ou the section as amended. A division was called for, when the vote stood : yeas 76—nays 57, and the section was declared carried. The following is the amended section : A well regulated militia being Necessary to the security of a free people, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, but the General Assembly shall have power to prescribe by law the manner in which arms shall be borne by private persons. J E Bryant moved that the Committee of the Whole rise, report progress, and ask leave to sit again. Carried. C H Prince moved that when the Con vention adjourned it would do so to meet again on Monday at 10 o’clock. Lost. A report from the Committee on Print ing was handed in and the rules supended. The report stated that the Committee had engaged the services of three phono graphic reporters, who would probably be prepared to enter on .heir duties on Mon day next. The Committee recommended that reports of the proceedings of the Con vention be furnished daily to the Opinion and New Era newspapers, but said not ono word about the Intelligencer. This is really poor gratitude for all our attentions to them. On motion of J E Bryant the rules were suspended for the purpose of taking up the following resolution, offered Some days ago, by Bell, of Banks : Resolved, That there be incorporated in the Constitution a clause requiring the Genera! Assembly to foster important works of internal improvement, particu larly the Air Line Railroad, by aid from the Treasury or the credit of the State. Un motion of J E Bryant the resolution was referred to the Committee on Cor porations. The Convention then adjourned to 10, a. in., next day. Railroad Convention. A Railroad Convention was held at this point (Atlanta) yesterday, the 15th inst. Col. E. W. Colo, Superintendent of the Georgia Railroad, was requested to’issuea circular to the Southern Railroads, calling their attention to the importance of encour aging immigration to the South, which reads as follows : Believing, as we do, that the prosperity of the Railroads, as well as every othor in terest of the South, is dependent on at" tracting to it an extensive immigration from the North, as well as from abroad, wo especially invite the attention of Railroad managers to the importance of early and energetic action with the .’iow of affording ail possible inducements to immigrants and immigrant societies who may wish to settle or operate in our country. To this end we suggest that the Southern Railroads shall adopt the following tariff for the transportation of bona Jide settlers and their goods: For each adult passenger one (1) cent per mile. For children between five and 12 years of age half-price. For children under five years old free, and that each full passenger be allowed one hundred and fifty (150) pounds of baggage, which shall be carried free of charge, and that they shall be charged at the rate of two (2) cents per ton per mile for extra baggage, which shall include household furniture, farming implements, machinery and tools intended to be used by such person. And, furthermore, that that road on which immigration shall settle, shall trans port him and his goods free of charge. It is the wish of this Convention that this suggestion should become an agree ment, and you are requested to communi cate to E. W. Cole, Superintendent Geor gia Railroad, Augusta, Ga., your accept ance or disapproval of this proposition at as early a day as possible. When any twenty roads or more shall have agreed to this proposition, a second circular will be issued by E. W. Cole, call ing together the general ticket agents of the reads agreeing to she tariff, at some convenient point, to arrange the details and carry the agreement into effect.. The members of this Convention are fully impressed with the belief that an in crease of the industrious population in the South will add greatly to otlr prosperity, we therefore, confidently ask trie press of the country to give this circular publicity, and request them to call the attention of their readers to the action of this Conven tion, which action will show that the rail roads of the South are anxious and deter mined to do all m their power to restore the country to its former prosperity. By order of E. W. Cole, President. Charles 11. Irvin, Secretary. Stay Law. Hd’qrs. 3d Mil. Dis. ) D’rr. Ga., Ala. and Fla., [■ Atlanta, Ga ;) Jan. 10, ’6B. ] General Orders, No. 11. 1. Whereas, That tho Constitutional Convention of the. State of Georgia, now in session in this city, adopted on the 13th day of December, 1867, the following preamble and ordinance : “Whereas, The question of affording some relief to the people of Georgia from the burden and indebtedness which is now oppressing them, is likely to be enacted upon by this Convention at some future day i and whereas, large amounts of prop erty now levied on, _ and about to be sacrificed at _ sheriff sales ; and whereas the debtors in such cases should be en titled to the benefits which may be con ferred on other debtors by the future action of this convention ; therefore, "Be it enacted by the people of Georgia in Convention assembled, and it is hereby ordained by authority of the same, That from and after the_ passage of this ordi nance, all levies which have been or may be made under execution issued from any court of this State, shall be suspended until this Convention shall have taken or refuse to take final action upon the matter of relief; and that all sales under execu tion in violation of this ordinance shall be null and void and of no eiSect. : ' 2. Therefore, by virtue of the plenary powers vested by the Reconstruction Acts of Congress in the commanding General of the Third Military District, and for the temporary relief of the people of Georgia. It is ordered, That said ordinance shall, from this date, be deemed to have taken effect in said State, and shall continue in full force and validity until said Conven tion shall have taken, or refuse to take, finai action upon tho matter of relief, or until further orders from these Headquar ters : Provided, That this order shall not apply to executions issued or to be issued bn judgments in favor of laborers or me chanics for services rendered since July 21st, 1865, nor to executions for the collec tion of taxes. By order of Maior General Meade. R. C. Drum, Assistant Adjutant General. [Official.] A duel occurred the other day in Ger many betweea an Austrian Baron and a Prussian Count. In the first round the Baron fell shot through the knee. But standing on one leg, he demanded another round. They fired again and the Prus sian sprang into the air and fell dead with a ball through his brain. Music.—We have received from the publishers, E. M.

He told them that the funds of tho btate had been removed to New York and he should fight for them before the Supreme Court of the United States, and do so out of no despite whatever to the powers that sought to control them. His speech in every respect partook of the calm, dignified and high-toned Chris tian character of the man. The books of Treasurer Jones had dis appeared and gone to parts unknown. The “so-called” Treasurer demanded of the Express Agent all packages in his care lor-Jones, which demand was refused. Tho same demand was made of tho Postmaster, and also refused.— Jourual A Messenger, 18 th. Secretary McCulloch issued an order to the heads of Bureaus in his Department forbidding them to recognize Stanton as Secretary of War until his status in that Department is settled. It is stated that similar orders have been issued to other executive depart ments. “In the midst of life we are in death.” On Monday afternoon, tho 1:11!; of Janu ary, 1868, tho remains of Mrs. Gkokoia Ai.ma Chuesehorouoh wore bdrne to their final resting place. She died in tiio full faith of the Gbspe! nml left to her sor rowing husband and friends tho blessed assurance of a thorough preparation for tho change that awaited her. brou » up under the auspices of the Methodiui’Fms copal Church South, she early gavi. ‘hot heart (o God. In childhood loft an orphan her home was with her brother, General Doles, of Milledgeville, a noble and gallant Confederate soldier, who gave his life for his country at the second battle of Cold Harbor. She was a cousin of bishop George F. Pierce, ot the Methodist Church, and the wife of our esteemed fellow-towns man,C Charles Cheesohorough. She has left aJkind and affectionate husband and many friends to mourn, what seems to ns, her untimely death. And yet how can that be an untimely death which found lior so thoroughly prepared ? Amiable, lovely and attractive and, above all, deeply pious through her brieflifeon earth, herdeatii was tranquil and happy. When her Pastor requested that she would give some word ot cheer to the loved ones left behind, her reply was, “Tell them I am ready to go! tell them lam ready to go!” Turning to her weeping husband sho said, “Charlie, you will meet me in Heaven.” In this happy framo of inind sho .sweetly fell asleep in Jesus, and, even in death, there rested upon her beautiful faee a look of calm anil holy peace. Those who witnesed it will not soon forget the scene at the St. James’ Church on the afternoon of her burial, as tho Pastor, brother George Patillo, lead tho impressive lesson con tained in the 90th Psalm and tho cheering promises found in the 15th chapter of tho first Corinthians. During the reading of the precious promises of God’s word, and the eloquent remarks of the Preacher as ho spoke of the tranquil death of the departed and of tho glorious hope of tho Gospel, and during the earnest and sympathetic prayer of Brother Lamar, of the Christian Church, tho tears and sobs of the congregation at tested tho depth of foeiing that pervaded ail hearts. When we followed her remains from the Church to the Cemetery, and while we stood around her grave and heard tho solemn words of the burial ser vice, although it seemed sad to consign to the silent tomb tho form of one so lovely, yet we felt in our inmost hearts lhat in her case we could well say— “O death where Is thy sting? O grave where is thy victory?’’ A Friend. OBITUARY. Pled, in this city, on the morning of the 3Blh io-tant, Lems DzLaiolz, son of the late Charlo-.
