(OpsfItufI0naI Union Convention, Georgia,

This body assembled IN this place on Thurs

Represented by ~ delegates.
The only Interesting portion of the proceed

The first resolution was unanimously agreed TO

Col. Thomas of Elberi, Union Democrat,
offered n substitute in lieu Of the resolution re-.
ported by the committee. This move gave rise
10 an animated and rather angry controversy
through the whole morning, and up to the hour
of adjournment Col Thomas thought that the
resolution offered by the COMMITTEES was not

Union party. Judge Jackson, OF Walton county,

Georgia Politics.

We insert the proceedings of the Union

The Savannah Republican, one Of the Constitu-
tiona Union organs, thus gingerly treads over
the bot ashes:
SUPPLEMENTAL MEETING AT MLLEDG EyILLE.
After the adjournment of the Union conven-
ton, Friday afternoon last, a supplemental
meeting was held by those who desired TO be
represented in the Baltimore convention. We
are told there were from twenty-five to thirty
persons present, and that il was composed alike
of Union Wings and Union Democrats, includ.
ing some who were not delegates TO the conven-
ton just adjourned. They do not 20 10 Bati-
more in defiance Of the Union party, nor as IFS
delegates. But the sutjoined proceedings Of
the meeting, (for which we are indebted TO the
courtesy Of our neiRhbors Of the Georgian,)
will show what action was taken
The Milledgeyie Recorder, the central or.
gan of the same party, pursues the same line Of
treatment:
II will be seen by the published proceedings
in another column, that portion OF the Union
Democrats and Wings, after the adjournment Of
the Union convention, assembled and deter.
mined 10 send delegates 70 the national conyen.
ton TO be held at Baltimore The declared
purpose Of these gentlemen, as we understand.
is to attempt TO purge the Democratic conven.
ton of its incendary element, TO have the Con
stitutional Union platform adopted BY that body,
and TO present, If possible, on this platform. an
acceptable Presidential candidate 10 The South.
We have only 70 say at present. by way Of
comment that we think our Democratic Union
friends have undertaken a herculean labor

they can succeed In cleansing the Democratic

Another Rcbukc by the House Of the Print
Ing Committee.

Yesterday Mr.. GoRMAN, of the joint Commit
tee on Printing, offered resolution to print
fifty thousand copies of the mechanical part OF
the Patent Office Report. We suppose this
monstrous job and humbug has to be admins
tered in broken doses to the House or why a
separate motion like this to print separate por-
ton of it!
Mr. CLIEGMAN, we understand, objected, and
said that there were unfavorabe accounts abroad
of the course taken by the committee, and be.
fore the House ordered any more printing, he
thought it ought to have report from the
committee of what had been done. Mr. Con-
MAN then moved the previous question on his
resolution, and on being requested by Mr. FlTcH,
OF Indiana, to withdraw it for few moments,
declined, on the ground that it was insisted on
by several gentleman near him. The vote was
then taken, and resuted--yeas as, nays 81.
1t seems from this that the coalition forces are
extremely weak in the House, and yet on such
vote as this, two mighty organs, one of each
ofthe great national parties. claim title to public
confidence. Wesuppose now that the Printing
Committee, after such a signal rebuke as this,
will hardly persist without an investigation.
There is the report of the special committee yet
to be received and acted on, and the truth is
that as all parties are now going into Presi-
dental election, in which the enormous expendi-
lures of the government will be vigorously can
vassed, good many prudent as well as honest
m of fu,r L.
dollars ought not to be taken out of the trea-
sury without being able to show respectable
reasons for it.
There appears, however, to be cohort Of
partzans who are acting on the maxim of "save
himself who can" They will grab the money
if possible-and if the act should be condemned
why the money cannot be recovered
The Printing Committee say they have not
abandoned the contract with Mr. HAMILTON,
and intend to hold him or his sureties response
BILE for the extra expense Of the printing. How
can this be done, when they give prices SO much
higher than the bid of Mr.. Towers, wlich he
still offers 10 take from The commiliee?
The truth is, it would be mean in The govern.
ment to insist on this contract with HAMILTON.
1t is ruinous. And il is in fact abrogated. Let
now the printing be given to the several news
paper offices at fair prices
AS for the movement that has been made, il
proceeded on an overweenng estimate of the
strength, of the Union and Republic. They
have found their weakness. 1t has proceeded on
the presumed weakness of this paper We have
corrected that blunder. And we advise that no
such blunder be repeated

NoseRsL MARRIAGES IN hLABAmA--By a
curious omission in the statute of Alabama,
relating to marriages, u appears that marriages
between whites and blacks are lawful in that
State. Licences are directed to be issued 10
authorize marriages between any free persons
IN the State'--not any free white" persons.
The question was raised only last season, in
Montgomery county, where free negro ma
applied for license 10 marry white girl, and
the officer, after taking counsel, was obliged 10
issue IL. The penalties for refusal are very se-
we're. The omission of the word was evidently
an insdvertsnce; bnt the letter of the law il
plain. The rare case of an application for such
license has disclosed the defect. and will pro-
