Tooiubn - Legislative Proceedinu*— Acoustic Improvements —A Full Treasury Give* Hope. Bpoolal'Correipondenoe Sun and Enquirer.J Atlanta, Jan. 15, 1874. In the Senate, to-day, thirty-three new (ills were introduced, and in the House eveuty-five. Thi9 looks like business, much time will be devoted to local t ills. The matters of general interest which ill come before the Legislature are : The oustiiutional Convention, the disposi- ou of the Macou A Brunswick Railroad, io repeal of all acts giving State aid to ulroads, and the repeal of the Lieu law. The Convention question is more seri- us tbnn 1 supposed it would bo, and I hink tho fight will be a hard one. Gen. ootnbs, in his speech mentioned in my ast, was, as usual, powerful and eloquent; ut it seems to mo ho was more opposed the makers of tho instrument than ;o tUo Constitution itself. He proudly /owed himsolf an enemy of the General overnment. His great argument is that he Georgia Constitution is not the act of he people, and therefore a Convention ihould bo held. He wauts yearly eloo- ions. He says if Legislatures can be longbt, he wants a new ono to be pur- hased every year, so that it will prove ostly. As to the features of the new onstitution, his ideas were glittering ;oneralitieB rather than plaiu statements, le was emphatic in denouncing thieves nd robbers. Tho object of government, ith him, was to keep people from doing rong. After his speoch, a Senator remarked hat all men, with Toombs, were thieves ad robbers except himself, and he was iihfranchised and oould not be one. My conclusion is the Convention will ot bo called. Senate. Mr. Arnow introduced a bill to encor- ga emigration. Provides, for a commis- oaer to he appointed by the Governor ) purchase two tracts of land of 5000 '.res each, to be sold at cost on time to aiigrants.

J IMPROVEMENT OF THE HALL. \ Dr. Flewollon, the Superintendent of j Public Works, has been experimenting in trying to improve the acoustic qualities of tbo Representative Hall. He has ! stretched a number of wires across the room, eight or ten foet below the ceiliug, which he claims lias greatly improved it. I have not noticed much difference, but it may bo better. Ono of the Senators seeing tho wires concluded they were stretched across for tho flies to light on. A CAUSE FOB HOPEFULNESS. The members generally look well, and are hopeful of the future—probably the fact that the treasury is well filled has much to do with it. Muscogee. Spoclul Di.sp.ktch to tho Culumbuit Enquirer.] A C'ovcutlon of States—Protest to Congrcns.

Butler, of Massachusetts, objected, aud tho resolution was not received. A largo number of private bills were reported. A largo proportion of the privato bills reported iu the House to-day went to the Committee of the Whole, under a new rule adopted a few days since.

National Transportation Convention -—Views of. fudge Cochrane. Iu the Cheap Transportation Conven tion this morning, Mr. Flagg, of Chicago, spoke in favor of national legislation for a narrow- guago railroad from tho East to tho West. Cochrane, of Georgia, dissented, con tending that Congress had no such power under tho Constitution. Tho National Cheap Transportation Convention met at 10 a. m., and was ad dressed by lion. N. C. Flagg, of Illi nois. The Railroad Committee roported in favor of Federal legislation restricting railroad freights, and in many respects controlling their management; also recom mending a national narrow gauge railroad between tho West and Eastern seaports, to bo built at tho expense of tho United States Government. Judge Lochraue, of Georgia, presented a minority report. Both repoits were received and laid on tho table, and made tho order after tho | report on water routes has been disposed of. Judge Lochrane takes strong grounds against tho csnstitutionnlity of the re commendations contained in the majority report. The report on “WaterRoutes’’ was then taken up. Colonel Carrington, of Virginia, spoko j in favor of the majority roport. General Rosser, of Missouri, iu favor of | the minority report, said tho West was in * favor of tho construction of the Atlantic j aud Great Western (’anal ; that tho canal | was an absolute necessity to tho West, ! and would bo built ut an early day. Ilo , said that tho trade of the Soutih was of , vast importance to tho West, and they j did not intend to let it languish. The West would havo that outlet. His speech was received with groat ap plause. A resolution was passed tendering tho j thanks of tbo Convention to Colonel B. • W. Frobol, of Georgia, for his able speech i delivered yesterday, and ordering it to be * printed. Tho Southern members of Congress— j particularly those from Georgia, Alabama j aud Tennessee—were uctivo on the ques- i tion of choop transportation, and thoHO | from the Wost are united and cordially | working with them. All are looking 1 close’y to the interests of their constitu ents. Tho following is tho report of Judge ' Lochrane, which is also signed by Col. B. Barrett, «»f tho District of (Vdumbia to the Natioual Government tho building ! of tho road from the East to tho Wost. First—Congress hns no power to rogu- | late charges for freight on railroads, as therein recommended. Second—Tho right to build n railroad for defence is not doubted, but tho right to construct railroads to carry freights for the public generally, we deny. Third—Tho right to rogulate Commerce does not mean to build railroads to carry on Commerce. The power to regulate is one thing, but tho power to create is another. Fourth—Charters created by States are legislative contracts, which neither States nor Congress can touch without violating tho fundamental law. Fifth—Tho right of a mail to his own property, whether in bunk, bonds or cor porations, and to uso it ns he pleases, in violatihn of no law entering into its ex istence, is sacred, and without which in heritance wo have uo inheritance. Sixth—If the Government enters upon this policy, it would destroy tho rights of bondholders in existing roads, cause shrinkage of valueH, unsettle all invest ments by individuals and give a percepti ble Bhock to free government on this con tinent.
