. GEORGIA POLITICS.

Correspondence The n Y. Tribune.
MILLEDGEvILLE Co., Monday, Jan. y, 1854.
The Legislature aftera Of nearly three weeks,
assemblies again to-day in this place. Nearly all the
members have reached the Capital and to Judge from
their conversation, determined to go to work in
earnest in maturing such measures as Will be promo
tive Of the great interest of the State Previous to the
recess they had done little else but egsae for loca
ties and individual interest
Asusxal there is good deal of speculation to the
probabilities of an election of United States Senator,
but this held subseryient to changes which may take
place in the Cabinet at Washington
The measures which will occupy large share Of the
attention of the Legislature are:
First: The subject of Taxation. Among a portion
of the Cherokee members there is strong feeling of
opposition TO the present Gd raorem system, and bill
has been introduced to revive the specific system
But feel confident that the repeal will not be sus-
tanned.
Second: Tie leasing of the Western and Atlastic
Railroad is loudly called for BY large portion OF the
people of Georgia, who convinced OF the imposs-
biity of that enterprise producing any under
State management 1t has already cost S5OO0,OOO
out Of the State Treasury, and has brought not
dollar
Third: The meeting of the Legislature annually is
demanded instead fthe present biennial system The
public business is neglected BY the long interval be-
tween our Legislatures think this bill Will pass,
with limitation TO the Session.
Fourth: The Institutions for the Deaf and Dumb,
the Blind and the Insane calling for aid to CON-
plete them, in such a manner as to carry out the
original contemplated plans, and there is doubt very
strong feeling OF liberality towards them among the
members Of the present Legislature.
Fifth Internal improvements are canvassed but no
definite plan has been arranged for carrying them out
One Railroad Company. the South Western, ask the
loan OF Bonds of the State to the amount of $5OOOOO
some general system in which four or probably five
roads will be designated, viii ultimately be adopted
Elections Of the officers Of the State, and the Solicit
torGenerals as also of Judges Of the Supreme Bench
will most likely be given to the peopS The Legisla-
ture will be in Session about forty days. during which
time Won will occasionally hear from SPECTATOR.
