Northern Capitalists Coming South. —The Charleston News says: “The de preciation in the prieje of lands throughout the South has induced a number of North ero capitalists to inve-t iu this species of property, and much of the planting during the coming season will be conducted by Northern men. The sea islands on the coast present an alluring field for such in vestments, and companies have already been formed to cultivate these rich lands. Among other companies that are spoken of is one to he headed by James Gordon Rennet. Jr. Mr. Bennct is associated with some capitalists from Philadelphia, and designs to plant on some of the islands neat the city. The company are prepared to try the planting experiment, and will purchase most of their stock and farming materials in this city, presuming that the prices will be lower than at the North.” Tub “Ramie Plant.’ —This new sub stitute ( ’or cotton is described by the editor of the Holly Springs (Mississippi) Report er, who ha» seen sjiccimenfl, as of a fine glossy white, even texture and great strength. It can be used separately in the manufacture of cloth, or may be com bined with silk or wool. The plant itself, hardy and vigorous, is not affected by long periods of rain, and stands dry weather equally well with cotton. It has been grown with success in Mexico, where the rainy seasons arc much longer than in the Sout hern States. It makes two crops per year, and yields from four to eight hundred pounds per acre. It bears no seed, but is grown from the roots and ratoons only. After the land is once stocked, the plant ing is good for a number of years. The I cultivation of this plant requires less labor ; than that of cotton, and the fibre coni i mands in market a better price, having [ been sold in Liverpool at sixty-five cents 1 per pound. Parties who have cultivated j the ramie plaint state that they arc highly pleased with their experiment, and believe the culture to be a great acquisition to the country. IMPORTANT FROM ATLANTA.

The Johnson-Stanton Case - The Conserv ative Residential Convention—The Radical Amendments to the Military : Satrapy Bid—Grant to he Southern ■ Dictator — What is also Contemplated— Fred. Douglas' Chances for the Vice Presidency. Washington, January 12, 186s. —It is understood the Senate yesterday bad under consideration the case of StaDton, it hav ing gone into secret session upon the mo tion of Mr. Howard, who has that matter in special charge. I learn that the reasons assigned by the President for Stanton’s suspension will be declared unsatisfactory, aod that a resolution will be adopted affirming his right to resume the functions of Secretary of War. I have already stated what would be the action of General Grant in the premises in this contingency. The President is reticent as to his course. The country will see in due time the disorgan izing practical working of the unconsti tutional Tenure of Office Act. If the Executive shall permit Stanton to take possession of the War Office, the anomaly will be presented of a most important De* partment in a state of isolation, if not in hourly hostility, to the rest of the Govern ment. Everything tends to national con fusion and disruption. Conferences have been held lately here by prominent Conservatives from all parts of the country in reference to the proper time for the assemblage of their Presi- ; dential Convention. It seems to be gen- , orally agreed that, inasmuch as the Radical j hand is already exposed-that Grant’s nom- ; ination by them is a foregone conclusion— j there can be no conceivable reason for delay on the part of their opponents, especially as thorough organization at the I earliest possible moment, is the one thing needful above all others, on the side of j the constitutional party’. The time will be J fixed on the 22d day of next month at the ; turtherest —and it is probable the Conven- > tion will be invited to assemble at least as j early as about the middle of April. A cor respondence is now going on with Mr. j Belmont, of New York, Chairman of the ; National Committee on this subject. The Reconstruction Committee had a protracted sitting on Saturday, and agrped upon a. bill clothing Grant with dictatorial military and civil power over the whole Southern country. No man ever had such de.-potic sway committed to his hands by tlie representatives of a civilized peo ple. It will "be submitted, I learn, to the House on Monday. In the meantime the Senate is by no means behindhand. Sumner yesterday submitted a resolution declaring the infamous and notorious i Constitutional amendment (called the 14th article) a part of the Constitution ; to be j followed, so lam credibly informed, by a bill repealing the clause in the old Rccon ! struction acts requiring the Constitutions j now being enacted by the Southern ne j groes to be submitted to the vote of the ' people. So they go. It is seriously contemplated, I can assure you, by a considerable portion of the Rad ical party to strengthen the Grant ticket by placing the name of Fred. Douglas upon it as a candidate for the Vice Presidency. Tins is deemed absolutely necessary to ap pease Wendell Phillips, Garrison, Butler, Greeley, and others of like proclivities. The redoubtable Major-General Pope, whose headquarters are again “in the saddle,” has arrived here, and had a I lcrigtby conference with General Grant | yesterday. Correspondence between Judge Aldrich and General Cttnby. Barnwell, S. C., Dec. 27, 1867. Sir :—l have beeu informed that Mr. Hood, the Treasurer of the State, has been instructed by you not to pay my salary after the 31st of October. When I received your special order No. 183, suspending me, l did not suppose you intended to deprive me of the property in my office. It never occurred to me that, because I could not conscientiously carry out your General Orders as to juries, I was to bo punished by being deprived of the salary which, in tho impoverished state of the country, is the only means left to me for the support of my family. I trust it is only necessary to bring to your notice thq fact that the J udge has a property in his office, and that during his suspension, he cannot legally be deprived of its emoluments. As I have no idea that your purpose is to inflict a personal injury on one who, I trust, has shown himself as zealous and honest iu the discharge of his duties as you have in the discharge of yours, I therefore respectfully submit this question to your more mature consideration, in the hope that, upon investigating the legal proposi tion, you will see you have unintentionally done me an injustice. Very respectfully, your obedient serv’t, A. I*. Aldrich, Law Judge of South Carolina. Major General Canby, Commanding District. lleawYrs Second Military Dlst., I Charleston, 8.C., Jam 4,1868. j A. I’. Aldrich, Esq., Barnwell Court House, S. C.: Sir: J have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your communication in rela t, it in to tho salary claimed by you as Judge of the Courtof Common Pleas and General Sessions, and to state iu reply that, as your action involved a serious delay in the ad ministration of justice, and imposed upon the State, in it** impoverished condition, additional expenses tor the maintenance of prisoners, and for holding special terms of the Courts in several of the Districts in t}ie Southern Circuit, I did not consider it proper or just to add to those burdens, by authorizing compensation to he made for services that were not rendered. Very respectfully, sir, yourob’t serv’t, Ep. R. S. Canby, Bre” a t Major General Commanding. Barnwei.i., unuary i , )BoN. \ Sir: —l reply immediately VQur note j of the 4th January, just received. I did not expect, and did not ask, that you, a Military Commander, would con sider the constitutionality of the Recon struction Acts. But L did expect that you would point to the clause in those Acts which empowered you to suspend me from the performance of the duties of my office, and then to deprive me of my property in tint office, by ordering the State Treasurer to withhold the salary which the State con tracted to pay me when I was commission ed one of her judges. You will remember, that 1 am still a Judge of South Carolina. You have not ventured to remove me yet, and if you had, you cannot deprive me of my office. You cannot point to any au thority in the Acts, but excuse your in justice and usurpation by saying "that as your action involved a serious delay in the administration of justice, and imposed upon the State, in its impoverished con dition, additional expense for the main tenance of prisoners, and for holding special terms of the courts in several of the districts iu the Southern Circuit, 1 did not consider it proper or just to add to those burdens by authorizing compensation for services that were uot rendered.” 1 indignantly repel this slander. I was in the actual performance of my duties, under the laws of the State ot South Caro lina, that had conferred on me my judicial office, and to whom, alone, I am ac countable, when you, by the high-hand ed usurpation of authority, not conferred on you by any law of Congress, or article of war, suspended me in the very effoit I was making to adminstur justice to a suf fering people. What JUSTICE was to be administered by such juries as you had directed to be drawn? You know or should have known, that your order as to juries, was not authorized by any Act of Congress. You know or should have known, that juries, selected as you direct ed, presented the most serious impediment to the administration of justice. You 1 know or should have known, that my oath of office prevented me from carrying out your order —and yet as a mere partisan, without considering the dignity of my posi tion, the character of my Leioved State, or the responsibility of your own station, in the very wautonness of power, you put upon me an indignity which was un worthy of the great Government you rep resent, aud I must add, appears to me now to be not only resentful, but unmanly. Let YOUR BROTHER OFFICERS OF THE OLD AR-MY JUDGE. Asa conscientious judge and a man of honor, I could not carry out your order without violating my oath of office. I said so frankly. You suspended me. I yield ed without a murmur, and now, because I have a conscience that will not permit me, as I think, to violate my oath of office, with high-handed tyranny, you not only deprive me of the dignity of that office, bnt rob me of its support, and then insult ingly tell me that my '‘action lias involved a serious delay in the administration of justice,” forgetting that it was your own unauthorized and officious interference with the laws of the State, that placed the first and only impediment in the way of justice. With what consistency can you talk about the ‘‘impoverished condition” of the State, when only on the 3d Decem ber last you issued General Orders No. 139, assessing a tax for the very salary you have directed the Treasurer to withhold, and did actually make an appropriation for its payment? "How does it help the peo ple of an impoverished State, tp wring taxes out of them, which you afterward di rect to be locked up in the treasury? Why trouble yourself about State bur dens, when the people (I mean white people, tax-payers), with singular unanim ity approve my course, and sustain me un der my present trials? No, sir, 1 am not deceived, nor is the country, by this mere subterfuge. You cover this bold and bad attempt to destroy the independence of the judiciary, at the same time that you make your effort to break down the great bulwark of liberty— j the TRIAL by jury— with a very flimsy 1 veil. I commend you to the perusal of General 1 Hancock’s Special Order No. '_’U3 to show you what a patriotic officer can do, whose desire is to heal the wounds of a prostrate and bleeding country. But Ido not complain. My on’y pur pose now is to repel your unjust and cruel aspersion, and to put on record my protest against your monstrous tyranny. I will leave my native State to-morrow, in deep sorrow and despondency, to seek a support for my wife and children, in hospitable Georgia, where I am assured of a hearty welcome. Thank God, in my temporary exile—for lam coming back when you go—l will be sustained by the consciousness of having done my duty, and the full confidence that the people, the great judges in this case, will soon do jus | tice to you and to me. Very respectfully, sir, your obedient ser vant, A. P. Aldrich, Law Judge of South Carolina, j Major Geberal Canby, Commanding Military District. Phillips’ Provision Exchange. Cincinnati, January 10, 18(58. j Editors Chronicle ct Sentinel: Dear Sirs : —The market for provisions during the week past has exhibited abetter feeling.

Washington, January 13, noon.—lm mense meetings were . held northward Saturday regarding the safety of natural ized citizens abroad. The question is as suming startling importance, j The Radical County Convention of ; Indianapolis resolved to instruct their dele i gates to the State Convention to incorpo ! rate a plank in their platform paying bonds with legal money unless otherwise cu j dorsed.

Eighteenth Day’s Proceedings of the | Georgia Unconstitutional Convention. REPORTED FOR THE ATLANTA DAILY INTELLIGENCER. Tuesday, January 14,1868. The Convention opened this day with prayer —W. Shropshire in the Chair. While the Journal was being read Mr. Bedford offered a resolution to the effect ! that its reading, which was so tedious, be dispensed with, which was put to the vote and lost. ’ ‘ . ’ A PROVISIONAL CIVIL GOVERNMENT. G. W. Ashburn offered a resolution to the effect that the Congress of the United States be requested by the Convention to I extend to it powers by which it might establish a provisional civil government in the State; also, legislative power on the question of Relief. {Io demanded immediate action on this | : all important subject, because there had been several measures of relief proposed for consideration, none of which had met the approbation of all parties, and he trust ed the one which lie then offered would be deemed sufficiently satisfactory. J. R. Parrott said that he had neglected to draw attention to the question, but as it had now come before the Convention for consideration lie deemed it a duty he ; owed to the Republican parly to which he i belonged) to tlie State of Georgia, and to himself, to state his views fully and fairly I with reference to it. He deemed it his ; duty as a Republican to preserve his honor j and the honor of his State. It should not be understood that it was for tlie sake of j affording relief the question was brought I forward. No person should be deceived jon that point. When the voice of Georgia j spoke that was sufficient. The voice of ! Georgia had spoken and the matter was 1 ulatted >n their hands. It routed with them to uei* With the proposition, and it was not necessary ,them to call upon tho Con gress of tho Unite!? States to give them power or liberty to do so. Mr. Ashburn rose to a question of order, j The position was not his. He did not J look upon it in the light of the resolution, i but he found so many were of the opinion j that the Convention had not the power of ; itself without receiving it from Congress, ; that he, for the sake of delaying further j time on the subject, offered the resolution 1 in order that some action might be taken | in regard to it. Mr. Parrott looked upon it as a virtual admission on the part of the resolution, whether he (Mr. Ashburn) he'd it doubt ful or not, to tiie Congress of the United States and to the people of Georgia, that the Convention possessed _no legislative authority. If such an admission went be fore the country, he wanted to know where would go their action on that bill, which, in ail probability, Congress would have taken action on in a few .days—in regard to the Provisional Governments of ' tho States. They occupied one of two j standpoints in that Convention. They were either working against or aiding the i great Republican party of the nation to ! maintain its honor and the power and in- : tegrity of the Union. If the Republican j party failed—if its banners were trailed in the dust —down North, .down they went also-in the South, down went their Consti tution, down went the privileges which i tho Constitution guaranteed to them. It j was ail lost—lost beyond redemption, j Mr. Parrott continued at some length, i closing with saying : He implored of them, for the sake ofj the Constitution of the country, not j to suspend the rules. Let Con gress alone! let the Commanding Genera! alone, and all will be well. If they were so anxious for relief, all they had to do was to come up to the work, act upon it, present it to Congress, ask it to , ratify it, which it would do, and all would go well. J. E. Bryant was surprised that any person should object to the resolution. He was in favor of it because he believed it essential to the vital interests of the State, and he trusted that action would be taken on it without delay. There was a rumor ou the streets yesterday that the President had sent an order to Gen. Meade ordering him to reinstate Gov. Jenkins, which though not true, would not by any means be surprising, since they had reason to know that the President would not hesitate for a moment to do such a thing. That rumor could alone have originated with parties opposed to the Commanding General, and to everything done by the Congress of the United States, and he was surprised that any person who belonged to the Republican party should offer any objection to the measure. It H. Whiteley trusted the gentleman from Richmond would withdraw the pre vious question Cries were then made for the ayes and nays. Dr. Miller said —there was but one question before the House. There were not a multiplicity of questions and he thought that at this stage of the proceed ings of the Convention it was out of order to cal! for the previous question. J. D. Waddell —thought it was simply a piece of nonsense to talk about the previ ous question when there was but one ques tion before the Convention. The Chair decided that the call for the previous question was in order, provided there was a one-fifth vote in favor of it. Aaron Alpeoria Bradley (negro), who made several unsuccessful efforts to gain a hearing, said with some indignation that the vote had not been taken by which they could tell whether there was a sufficient number of votes to justify the call. A considerable discussion here ensued in which the reporter was at a loss to keep to the subject, and was finally carried away by the torrent. The ayes and nays were then taken, when the previous question was sustained, the vote standing—ayes 74. nays >O. The question of the suspending of the rules lor the purpose of taking up the previous question was then taken up and a, division called for, which was carried, h TT V °A? m ? ~~ a >' cs SO, nays 66. - ■ -!• Inner I (negro) wanted to give his reasons 'or asking to be excused from voting, which was not listened to, and as A. Alpeoria Bradley (negro) moved that he be excused lor the entire session, said lurner withdrew his request and voted no amid a general outburst of laughter, some confusion here took place with regard to the question which was or ought to Lie before the House,.and several mem bers were on their feet, amongst them prominently stood A. Alpeoria' Bradley (negro) who, with a martyr-like resigna tion, set down, finding it utterly impossible to get in a word. The Chair here decided that the call was lost, it not having been carried by a two thirds vote, iu accordance with Rule 23 of the Convention. J. D. \\ addell said that the rule was to begin on oneaay where they left off the day before. L. N. Trammell • followed in the same vein, saying that if they went back every I day to the beginning of the alphabet it would not come to the T’s or the W’s for an indefinite period, and the rule was to | take up the unfinished business, where they left off the previous day. i . Benjamin Conley moved that the un j finished business be taken up each day at i the place where they had stopped the pre ceding day, which was carried. AN ORDINANCE or FRANCHISE. C. C. Martin presented the following : An Ordinance on Franchise dnd other matters therein contained. Ist. Beit enacted ley the people of Geor gia. in Convention assembled. That no per son shall be entitled to vote at an election in this State or bold an office of profit or honor in the same, unless be can read the Bible and the Constitution of this State; provided , that no free person of color shall he eligible to any office in this State. 2d. Intermarriage between white persons and persons of color is hereby prohibited, and persons violating this ordinance, as well as the minister or officer performing the ceremony of marriage, shall be pun ished by confinement in separate apart ments in the penitentiary for not less than ten nor more than twenty years, or be banished to Africa or Liberia on their otvn expense at the option of the parties. The above resolution created a general outburst of indignation, and many members waxed exceedingly wrathy. Several at tempts were made while it was being read to prevent it being proceeded with, but to no purpose. Still the felonious ordinance went -on, and even the blushes of A. Alpeoria (negro) had no effect in squelch ing the foul inissi'e from the Hall. Alter a great and prolonged excitement the document was declared out of order under the rule and was dismissed, two or l three negroes moving that the gentleman ! be sent to Liberia himself. R. H. Whitely presented, in behalf of H. K. McCoy, an ordinance providing for taxing debts twenty-five per cent, per an num on their value. Laid over under the rule. Romulus Moore (negro) presented an ordinance regulating the relations of debtor and creditor. S. F. Salter introduced a resolution for the payment of the members of the Con vention. It provides that an .order be given on the State Treasury for the sum of $60,000, and the Disbursing Officer be di rected to proceed to Milledgeville to obtain the money and receipt for the same. It also provided that each member should re ceive his per diem pay and mileage up to the 20th-of January, 1868. Laid over. Several other ordinances and resolutions were read and laid over. VOTE OF THANKS TO GENERAL HANCOCK. Mr. Waddell offered a resolution to the effect that all persons from the highest to the humblest citizens of tho land, who paid due allegiance to the Constitution of the United States.were entitled to the respect of the Convention, and that as Major Gen eral Winfield S. Hancock, commander of the Fifth Military District had shown him self to be such a man, and was therefore entitled to the thanks of the Convention for his conduct as commander of the Fifth Military District. The people of Louisiana were happy in having a man such as General Hancock is amongst them. Mr Akerman objected to the resolution —it might be that General Hancock was a very .good officer, and he had no doubt that he was; but he knew that while a man might be very competent to dispense mili tary law, he might at the same time not be competent to dispense civil law. He did not of himself know enougli on these mat ters to be able to decide whether General Hancock was right or not in his conduct in Louisiana, but there was one thing they all knew and that was that the conduct of General Hancock was now being criticised very keenly throughout the North, and he would like to know more of him than he did before he would sanction such a reso j lut.ion. The resolution, after some further discussion, was put to the vote aud lost — ayes 13, nays 123. Mr Whitely offered a resolution to the effect that henceforth all matters or pe titions pertaining to relief should bo handed ; to the chairman of the Relief Committee, and not introduced in the Convention. Aaron Alpeoria Bradley (negro), in his usual angry manner, objected to the reso lution. lie did not see how any gentle man could dare to gag the Convention, and he would not stand it himself. He would have, after a while perhaps, to introduce a resolution praying lor the relief of one hundred colored persons who were illegally confined in Savannah jail. It was an alarm ing fact that while only eight white persons were detained there, there were one hun dred colored persons there accused of murder. Those offences occurred at the ! time Sherman passed through here, and he could not sue how they were to be tried. They could not bo tried by the Confeder ate law, and as it was war times they could not be tried by any law, and they should be released. Mr. Gilbert said this was not a court for tho trial of prisoners. Aaron Alpeoria Bradley (negro) would not admit of any argument on this matter, and could not be prevented from making his statement. The matter was referred to the Chair for decision, and it was decided that, though the gentleman was taking a very wide range, he was not out of order. Aaron Alpeoria Bradley (negro) then proceeded in a most terrific manner to object to the resolution, and afterward sat down. The rules were suspended after some further discussion, and the resolution was laid over. W. Shropshire, from the Committee on Finance, presented the following ; Your Committee beg leave to report that, pretermitting the validity of the Constitution of 1865, or the Acts of the General Assembly that existed under and by virtue of its authority, we beg leave to recommend the adoption of the following resolution: Resolved, That in the opinion of the Convention it is unwise and inexpedient to directly or indirectly interfere with the legislation of the General Assembly au- 1 thorizing the issue of bonds for the pur pose of paying the indebtedness of the State. Wesley Shropshire, Ch’n. The rules ip this case were suspended and the resolution taken up for action. B. Conley moved the adoption of the resolution. Mr. Bedford thought they ought to be careful how they acted in the matter as they may have to pay the debts incurred by the State for war purposes. After some discussion, a motion was made to lay the resolution on the table and have three hundred copies printed; which was lost. The question of the preamble and reso lutions was then brought back and acted upon, when they wore adopted without division. D. G. Cotting read a resolution request ing the Commanding General to investi gate all proceedings connected with the late elections, which v;ps unanimously, or nearly so, objected to, and the question was withdrawn. J. E. Bryant, from the standing commit tee on Franchise, reported the chapter on I the Elective Franchise. It contained a provision for_ universal suffrage, except | such as were disqualified by article 14 oi | the proposed amendment to the United i States Constitution, and by the laws of | Congress. It also provided for registration. After some discussion, the report was laid j on the table, and 500 copies ordered to be j printed for the use of the members of the ! Convention. j J R Parrott moved that the rules be | suspended for the purpose of taking up ! the report from the committee on Relief, and of making it a special order for to l morrow. ! H M Turner (negro) read a resolution to ; the effect that no business should be trans acted by the Convention until the Con j stitution was framed. A motion to suspend the rules was ob ; jected to and the resolution laid over. After some further discussion, the Con j vention Bankruptcy—United States District | Court.— Judge Erskine held on yesterday i the regular Tuesday’s session of the U. S. i Court, sitting as a Court of Bankruptcy. Several important questions came up ' j for decision. The case of the Bank of j i Fulton was argued at some length by Mr. K. Arnold for Vi. M. and R. J. Lowry, the ! petitioners, and Col. L. h. Bleckley for the bank. The case was continued until Tues ' day next.with leave to amend the petition. Mr. Register Black, of this District, had j I certified to the Cuurt for decision a question involving the validity of payments held by j ! creditors of a bankrupt. The opinion of the Court sustains the priority of judgment j liens. It was aiso decided by the Court that a ' Registrar has not the power to grant a final discharge from his liabilities to a i bankrupt, but tliat the District Court must j act iu every ca_-e. — Atlanta liUelliyencer, 1 15 th. 1 Bloody Affair at Dyersburg, Tenn. — Memphis, January 9.—A terrible affair occurred at Dyersburg, West Tennessee, on Tuesday. Sheriff i’arkington attempt ed to arrest an old man named Duncan on the street, when Duncaa drew a pistol and fired, shooting off the Sheriff's thumb. Parkington’s son, who was standing near, fired his pistol, killing Duncan, whose son, coming up at the moment, fired and killed young Parkington instantly. The Sheriff, seeing his son slain, drew his pistol and shot young Duncan through the heart. The most intense excitement followed, but at last accounts nothing further had been done, though owing to the'extensive ac quaintance of both parties, further trouble is apprehended. OBITUARY.
