[Special Correspondence Sun and Enquirer.]
Atlanta, January 14, 1874.
Every one in Atlanta moves briskly,
more now than usual, for the Legislature
is in session. Ilotols and boarding houses
are full, and the proprietors are happy.
Thoy expect a rich harvest. Atlanta
moans to be the capital of tho State as
long as Rho can. It pays.
both Houses of the Legislature met to
day. Tho Senate bad a quorum, and in
tho House one hundred aud twenty-four
members were present.
Semite.
Senator Harris was armed with a reso
lution which provides for a joint com
mittee of both Houses, to which to refer
all constitutional amendments. Mis ob-
joct is to avoid tho bnrdeusomo expense
of a Convention.
Senator Harris introduced a bill con
demning the retroactive foatures of tho
Congressional bill, aud expressing gratifi-
cition at its repeal. This is pure bunkum.
Southern Congressmen ought to take all
pay they enu get.
A joiut committee was appointed to in
vestigate tho Macon and Brunswick Rail
road, which has passed into the posses
sion of tho State.
A number of local aud general bills
were read the first time, among thorn one
to onforoa the laws regarding concealed
weapons.
AMENDMENT TO THE LIEN LAW.
Judge Keoso introduced a bill which is
iu substance us follows :
Seotion oue provides that from and af
ter the first day of November, 1874, no
liens shall arise or be created, by contract
or by tho operation of law, upon annual
orops, except lions in fuvor of landlords,
for supplies, and for rent, aud of laborers
for labor, which lions of landlords shall
arise by operation of law, and shall have
the same precedence as to uuuual crops
as special rent liens under the existing
laws.
Section second provides that any and
every conveyance, whatever be its form,
if intended to create a law in violation of
the provisions of this act, shall bo a ques
tion of fact to bo tried by a jury.
Senator Blanco introduced a resolution
calling a constitutional convention on the
first Tuesday in April, and providing for
au election of delegates on tho first Tues
day in March, each county to be entitled
to twice its representation in the House,
each senatorial district to have two dele
gates at large. It is exceedingly doubtful
whether such a measure will pass, as the
general sentiment is against it.
Tho Governor’s message was read early
in tho session. You were sont a copy,
and I supp9Re, of course, it has boen pub
lished. It is regarded as an able and sen
sible document. President Trammell
made only a few remarks.
The House
was called to order. Speaker Bacon mado
a brief talk.
Resolution, by Raid, of Wilcox, that
the Capitol building being uusafe, that
the House adjourn on tho 10th, and
meet on th® following Tuesday
Millodgevillo. This wont pass.
By tho casting vote of the Speaker, the
Representatives from Rockdale,McDuffie,
Douglass aud Dodge counties wore al
lowed, after debate, all the privileges of
members, save tho right to vote.
Members aro again becoming scared,
and resolutions providing for an immedi
ate examination of the Capitol by compe
tent architects were adopted.
Deaths of two members were announc
ed, aud suitable resolutions passed.
Threo membets, elected in placo of
those who havo died, wero sworu iu.
One thousaud copies of the Governor’s
message wero orderod printed, and tho
various subjects appropriately referred.
The tax and appropriation bills, by res
olution, will take precedence over all
others, and tho committee was instructed
to report them as soon ns practicable.
A resolution to hold a State Convention
in Mav, will be introduced to-morrow.

Tlie Mexican War Veteran'* Con
vention. •
Tho delegates to tho National Conven
tion of Mexican war veterans represent
all portions of tho country. Thoy, at
noon, mnrehod from their headquarters to
Willard's Hall, with a band of music, un
der escort of tho President’s mounted
guard, a local organization. Tho conven
tion was called to order by Gen. J. W.
Denver, who said its objects wero tbo
preparation of a memorial to Congress,
asking pensions for all survivors of tbo
Mexican war, or tho passogo of a law
similar to that of 1871, giving pensions to
the survivors of the war of 1812 ; also to
adopt measures for the orgauizntion of a
National Brotherhood of Mexican veter
ans, aud for a representation at tho Cen
tennial Exposition at Philadelphia iu
187(5. The convention, however, need
not be confined to tlieso objects alone.
Those who favored the cull were animated
by a desire to meet comrades from all
sections of the country, and thereby re
new old associations. There were
some who behaved well, but were
now indigent and unable to take
care of themselves; therefore one
of the objects of the convention should
be to prevail upon Congress to pass a law
to admit them to tho Soldiers’ Home,
located near the city of Washington,
which was purchased and established with
the money obtained from Mexico by tho
valor of our arms. Tho invitation now
being open only to soldiers of tho regular
army.
In speaking of tho Mexican campaign,
Gen. Douver said our troops attacked the
Mexicans in their own country, captured
their strongholds, opposing to them not
more than one-third or one-fourth as
many Americans as thero wero Mexicans
in the field. That war continued two
years without a single reverse to our
arms, and hcuco it was right tho surviv
ing veterans should meet and remind tho
people of their country that tho victories
were secured, not for one section of our
country more than for another; but what
they did was for our common advantage
ond renown.
Gou. Denver was frequently interrupt
ed by applause.
A temporary organization was effected
by tho selection of Gen. Denver as Chair
man, aud A. M. Kenueduy us Secretary;
and a committee was appointed on cre
dentials aud permanent organization.

Con\ (*ntion—Address of CoS.
l'robel.
The National Choap Transportation
Convention, at their meeting, this morn
ing, wore addressed by Col. Frobel, of
Georgiu, as tho Representative of Gov.
Smith of that State, who had boen invited
by tho committee to speak on tho sub
ject of cheap transportation, but whoso
official duties detained him at homo.
Colonel Frobel showod tho necessity of
some cheaper mode of transportation
than at present exists for tho heavy pro
ducts of tho country, and that water
aff ords tho best meaus for tho accomplish
ment of this desired object. Ho advoca
ted a national system, tho benefits of
which should reach all sections aud all
interests, aud considered as folly tho cry
that tho country could not afford such
works, comparing this cry to tho folly of
tho farmer who would suffer thousands of
bushels of grain to rot in his field because
he could not afford to pay fifty dollars to
buy a wagon to haul it to a profitable
mill. The small politicians had opposed
a general system of water improvements,
on tho ground that thoy would cost a
hundred millions, and had uttered the
cry from one end of tho land to tho other,
in answer to the wail of need;this drowned
the voice of the people, hushed tho com
plaint of decaying interests, aud from be
hind this pretence of a virtuous economy
they tollod the death knoll of prosperity
iu this cry of a hundred millions. Col.
Frobel spoke nt length on tho necessity of
building up our manufactories und homo
trade between tho Stales, und reviewed
tho present condition of tho cotton inter
ests, showiug it was rapidly decaying. In
conclusion ho reviewed the present finan
cial condition of tho country and tho
causes.
The Colonel was frequently applauded
during his remarks.
Tho report of the Committee on Canals
was mado and its consideration deferred
as the special order for to-morrow.

CiiHltiiiK'N Letter of Witlnlrimnl.
Washington, January 14. The follow
ing is the letter of Xten. Cushing re
questing the withdrawal of his nomina
tion :
To the President:
Sir—Animated by the sense of pro
found gratitude for tho honor you have
done me iu nomiuuting mo to the high of
fice of Chief Justice of the Supremo Court
of tho United Slates, aud perceiving that
tho continuance of my nuino before tho
Senate may be the cuuuo or occasion of
inconvenience to yourself or your politi
cal friends there, l respectfully request
you to withdraw tho nomination.
Permit me to add that tho charges of
disloyalty to tho Union and tho Consti
tution, which havo been brought against
mo iu this connection, aro merely desti
tute of foundation in truth or iu fact. I
indignantly repel the imputation. In
the time auterior to tho commoncotuoul
of hosfllitios in the Northern States,
every act of my political life, m whatever
relation of parties, was governed by the
single dominant purpose of aiming to pre
serve tho threatened integrity of the
iTuion, and to avert from my country the
calamity of its disruption and of conse
quent. fractrioidal carnage. How could
such a purpose bo promoted otherwise
than by political associations or personal
intercourse with citizens of different
States, including those States professedly
disaffected to tho Union'! Should tho
only possible means of laboring to prevent
civil war bo stigmatized as disloyalty to
tho Constitution? But immediately on
the occurrence of the first act of hostility
to the Union being struck in tho Stato of
South Carolina, 1 took my stand with tho
Union und its Government. I publicly
announced my adhesion to them iu tho
most unequivocal terms. 1 tendered my
services to tho Government, in the field,
or iu any other way which might testify
my fidelity to it, and I havo continued,
from that day to this, us woll in an official
us un unofficial action, to tread iu tho path
of unswerving devotion to tho Union,
whether during tho actual progress of hos
tilities against it, or iu the subsequent
events of itsroconstructiyn,and of tho suc-
cossivo amendments of the Constitution,
rendered necessary by the changed condi
tions nnd relations (if tho several States of
the United States, and of thoir respective
inhabitants.
The recent amendments of the Consti
tution, each and all of them, as they wore
in turn adopted, and tho legislative acts
for their enforcement, unit for accom
plishing reconstruction, had my co-opera
tion and udhesiou, and 1 havo supported
them constantly, if not, in political de
bates, for which my comparatively re
served habits of life afforded neither oc
casion nor opportunity, yet in legal opin
ions or in tho courts, and in counsel or
discussion with officers of the
mont, members of Congress, and privet
persons. I entertain tho same general re
spect for those amendments ns for other
provisions of the Constitution, and* also
rendering tho special observance duo to
them as tho just and nocossary incidents
of tho reconstruction of tho Union.
While my nomination was undergoing
consideration in tho Senate, it would havo
been unbecoming for mo to speak in ex
planation of my acts or opinions ; but
now, with relative indifference to what
ever elso may have been said, either hon
estly or maliciously, to my prejudice, ll
belongs to my Reuse of public duty, and
it is my right to reaffirm, to declare, that
I have never, in the long course of a not
inactive life, done an act, uttered a word,
or conceived a thought of disloyalty to
the Constitution or the Union.
I havo the honor to be,
Very respectfully,
fKignod] C. Cushing.
