Tho Georgia Convention and their
f,ay-A stormy Session, &c.

ATLANTA, GA, December 23.--The Con-
ren,ion met this morning, and immediately
took recess until ?. NJ, to give an op-
nnrtnnity to negotiate loan to pay the
axnenses of the body. The afternoon ses-
s;nn was exceedingly stormy. The Finance
Committee failed to secure loan, and re-
norted an ordinance to authorize further eff
Tort. which was defeated on the ground that
,n,hjnc could be done. The report of the
commissioner sent to Millcdgeville to draw
$4,000 frora the State Treasurer was re.
cr;ycd. 1t says that he showed the State
T-casurcr the ordinance Of the Convef-
tom with General Pope's authorization
and direction endorsed, and that the Urea
xnrcr said he must decline paying out any
money on such authority, being sworn to
nhrv the constitution and laws Of Georgia,
and was bonded only to pay warrants
signed by the Governor.
DnrinC the debate that ensuedsa dele
cate said the Treasurer had snubbed the
Convention. Another said ne would to
God the Convention could snub General
Pope. The negro Bradley said the SER
ccant.atarmS should be sent with file of
soldiers to bring that impudent treasurer
70 the bar of the Convention. Another
negro said: "What did they brung us
here for ~ Great confusion accompanied
the adjournment, which is over TO the 9Th
of January next. Extreme indignation is
expressed by the delegates, majorityaof
whom have not money enough to take
them home. Hotels, boarding houses, the
Convention printer, and officials suffer Sc

Hon. W. D. KELLEY ON THE COTTON TAX.
The following note from Hon. W. D. Kel-
ley, of Pennsylvania, was published in the
Memphis Post Of the 10th instant:
WASHINGTON, December s., 1867.
" Editors Post, IL have received num-
Der of communications, printed and writ
ten, from Memphis, on the subject of the
cotton tax. had FIVE minutes yesterday
to speak on the subject, and beg you to
oblige me by publishing my few words.
envy object is to demonstrate the ne
cessity of an alliance between the cotton
planter and manufacturer to secure to
the planters monopoly of our own mar
ket. That doue, we can export cotton
fabrics and exclude the cotton of other
fields from the markets our manufacturers
conquer. The cotton tax and the five per
cent. tax on cotton manufactures repealed,
with the factory located on water-power
flowing through cotton fields, we can re-
sumo our ascendancy as cotton-growcrs in
a few years.
"Yours, very truly,
CIVILIAN D. KELLEY"

DIRECT TAN IN THE SOUTH.-At the last
session of Congress the law for the collec-
ton of the direct taxes in the southern
States was, in consideration Of their dis
tressed and unsettled condition at that
time, suspended until after January l,
1868, and the commissioners who had been
appointed were recalled. A large number
of applications have been filed here within
the last two weeks for these positions, in
the expectation that the statute will be
enforced next month. The Secretary OF
the Treasury, however, communicated
few days ago with the Ways and Means
Committee on the subject, and suggested
the ACCESSIBILITY of granting further eX-
tension of the time, within which the law
should not 60 into operation on account OF
the general inability Of the southern
States to pay. The committee are divided
in opinion on the subject, and it is uncer-
tain what course they will pursue; but
the Secretary has determined to make no
appointments until some definite conclu-
sion shall have been arrived at by Con-
gress. Leading southern men have sent
strong letters asking for further suspen'
sion of the statutes.-Ne1o York. Tribune

No ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS pass
ed a law last winter making uine hours
DAYS work. The Reading Railroad Com
pany have carried it into effect in all
branches of their business, reducing the
wages of their workmen in a correspond
ing ratio. This will be the result of all
similar attempts. Until the Government
assumes TO fix the price of corn, or wheat,
or broadcloth, IT cannot fix the price Of
labor and an attempt to define the num-
her of hours which shall constitute days
work is only roundabout way of fixing
the nrice of labor.-Ne,o York Times.

the above named Justice, and after hearing
the evidence, it was agreed by both parties
