It viii be seen BY the following despatch
from Milledgeville that the Georgia Legisla-
ture has rejected the Howard amendment by
q large majority
MILLEDeEvIILE,N Nov. 9.--The Legislature
rejected the constitutional amendment. The
rejection resolution reads as follows
RssotUed, That the Legislature of Georgia
declines to Iatify the amendment adding the
fourteenth article to the Constitution of the
United States
A motion was made in the Senate to post
pone the consideration to some future day,
but was amended to move the adoption of the
above resolution, and this was passed-yeas
SO, nays none-a full Senate voting
In the House the vote stood-yeas 131 nays
Ellington, of Gilmer county, and Hum
phreys, of Fauvier county.
The committee reporting this resolution ac-
company the report with a lengthy argument.
The substance is as follows
list. That the States of the United States
alone are authorized to consider constitution
al amendments.
3D. That such amendments must be pro-
posed by two-thirds of Congress, or two
thirds of the Legislatures of the States
3d. That Georgia was one of the original
States, and must always have continued such,
unless she reserved the right to secede or give
the Federal Government the right to eject
her.
The report adduces the legislation of Con-
gress the proclamations of the President and
the issue made during the war by the Gov
eminent ofthe United States to prove it was
held by that Government that no Statecould
secede, and the war was only intended to up
hold the practical relations ofthe States
thereto, and the suppression of the rebellion
was to restore these relations fully, and the
Constitution then becomes the supreme law
of the land
The argument then goes on to declare that
Georgia and other States are integral parts OF
Congress, and no constitutional Congress
can be convened while such integral portions
are forcibly excluded. 1t says the adoption
of the emancipation amendment is no prece-
dent for the adoption of this amendment, the
Southern States having at that time no dele
cations to be received into Congress, as now,
who desired admitance, and then concludes
by saying that as the amendment in question
was not proposed by two-thirds ola constitu-
tional Congress, the committee recommend
the adoption of the resolution above men,
toned.

JUDGE BOND, OF BALTuMoRE.-Itis stated
that Gov. Swami will convene the secession
Legislature of Maryland at an early day, and
that one of its first acts will be to impeach
Judge Bond for causing the arrest of his
Police Commissioners. The cancer of seces-
sionism is rapidly eating into States that
were loyal during the rebellion.

Death of Hampden 8 su,,h r.,


We are panied to have to announce the
death OF another of our best citizens. HAMP-
DEN SIDNEY SMITH, a native of Raleigh, and
long known as the Secretary of the North
Carolina Fire Insurance Company, expired at
his residence on Sunday morning last, after
an illness OF several weeks. His health had
been feeble and precarious for years.
The deceased, though he never aspired to
public place, was nevertheless qualified by
his learning and eloquence for any position
that might have been assigned him. But he
was singularly amiable, modest and unob-
trusiVe, and had no taste for the rough, hard
contests OF the bar or of public life. He
was the only SON of that good man, Ben
jamin B. Smith, Esq, deceased, formerly
one of our leading merchants

LIVINGSTON BROWN, SENATOR ELECT
FROM CAswELL.-In our list of members of
the Legislature we have heretofore classed
this gentleman as belonging to the medical
profession. This is a mistake, made by our
informant we presume, from the fact that his
brother is a member of that profession. Liv-
ingston Brown is gentleman of fine attain
ments, and is a son of our worthy friend,

Being profoundly impressed with the i'm

the undersigned, committee appointed by

their comrades, the loyal veterans of the Re-
public, with all other friends of the great
cause of Union and liberty, to meet in a ma

| in this, the Federal capital on Saturday, De-
cember the 1st proximo.
We ask your presence to honor and assure
protection to the loyal majority in the Thirty
Ninth Congress, in whom we recognize faith
full guardians of our assaulted institutions and
able supporters of the principles involved
Come in your might! By your presence
! show how sternly loyalty can rebuSe treason
Prove thereby that the threats and insults of
a treacherous Executive against the legisla.

midate free people. Here in the Federal
capital must our great struggle eliminate in
wise and equitable legislation. Here, then,
should we assemble to encourage and
strengthen Congress-to whose hands the
Constitution wisely entrusts the power-to
such just action as will make peace perma-

What they may be, and what disastrous ca

The Exhibition.

A large and respectable auditory were very
pleasantly entertained on Friday night last
at the free Exhibition for the Deaf, the Dumb
and Blind. We can not better express oul
appreciation of the excellence of the exhibi.
ton, and the fine music, than by adopting
the account given by our neighbor of the
Sentinel:
The programme was an excellent one, and
the performances of the Blind in music. and
the exhibitions of the Mutes in the sign-lan-
guage, were highly creditable to them and
the Institution. Mr.. Palmer, the excellent
principal, under whose direction the exhibit
ton was conducted, was entirely at home, and
to him are our citizens much indebted for
the interesting entertainment.
We would specially commend to the con-
sideration of those, who desire cheap instru-
ments for social or Church worship, the Ma
son Hamlin Cabinet Organs, of which Mr..
Matthews, now in this City, is Agent. His
performances, last Friday night, on that in
strument added much to the interest of the
occasion"
This Institution, and the Insane Asylum,
are noble charities which must be sustained.
They are sacred to humanity and Heaven :;
and no matter what may be our political
condition or differences, these Institutions
should always have the friendship and good
will of all our people

The adoption of President Johnson's policy
and the enunciation of general amnesty fol-
all past political offences would hasten al
once millennium day of enterprise, energy
and real progress, and would so solder the
bonds of Union and concord between our
people, that they never could be broken i
Sentinel.
And yet the Sentinel and its followers have
no idea of adopting President Johnson's pol
icy. Its failure, and the triumph of the So
called Radicals, are to be attributed to lust
such one sided, narrow minded, sectional, Sc
cession politicians as the Editors of the
Sentinel.
There is no one vital point in the Presi-
dents policy which the Sentinel and its
friends are ready to adopt. The formal abo-
lltion OF slavery, the reputation of the rebel
| debt and of the doctrine of secession, really
amounted to nothing, for the reason that it
had all been done before, in the progress and
| at the close of the war. There are three vi
| tai points in the Presidents plan to which
the Sentinel and its friends are as much 3D.
posed as they are to the Howard amendment.
First, the Presidents declaration that no one
! should be appointed or elected to office in
the Southern States who had ever faltered in
his allegiance to the federal government
Second, his declaration that members of Con-
gress from the Southern States should be
persons who could take the test-oath. Third.
his declaration that it would be advisable.
in conducting the work of restoration, to
ensure its success, to permit certain class of
colored men to vote.
AS to a" general amnesty, that has already
been granted. This was done by the Pres
ident, in his proclamation of May Goth,
1865. Instead of soldering the bonds of
the Union" it has had tendency to snap
and destroy them.
We shall have no Millennium in this
country until conscious traitors" are made
to know their places, and the unmistaka-
bly, loyal" are put in control of every thing
from the smallest Office to the highest. This
is the whole truth in nutshell. It is not for
us to say hoao this shall be done. But we
have Congress which will meet soon I: and
II that body should prove recreant to the
hopes rePosed in it by the loyal people of all
portions of the country, we shall then de-
spair of the Republic, and shall look for the
reign OF laWlessness anarchy, and violence.
