Adjourn without Delay-It Is an

MosrGoaERY, ALA, December &c.
neral Pope, commanding this district, tele-
graphs to General Swayne, December I'd,
asking if the Convention cannot be in
duced to adjourn without further legisla-
ton. He says it is doing incalculable in
jury to reconstruction By its. late action.
This is the second dispatch of the same
tenor received from General Pope. The
Convention has not yet fixed on day for
adjournment. The members declare that
General Pope's dispatch is an insult to the
Convention.
To-day the Convention passed an ordi-
nance exempting 81 900 worth of personal
property and homestead Of eighty acres
of land for the head Of each family from
seizure for debt.
An ordinance was passed to o second
reading suspending all the courts of the
State except the Supreme, Probate, and
Criminal Courts.
An ordinance to prevent marriages be-
tween whites and blacks was defeated,
the extreme white and colored delegates
opposing it.
An ordinance staying the collection of
all debts until January lst, 1868, was
passed.

special telegram to the Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, December 3.-The Radi-
Gals are generally quite temperate in their
criticisms of the Presidents message. The
Conservatives characterize it as the ablest
State document that Johnson has pro-
duced. A few Radicals are e1asperated
at the Presidents reconstruction argument.
The Senate committee will report, next
week, in favor of admitting Senator
Thomas of Maryland, to his seat. The
charges of disloyalty, etc., made by the
Radicals, have been utterly foiled.
I It is the belief tonight that the House
will, tomorrow, vote on impeachment
without discussion, and by large majority
lay the majority report on the table.
It is not likely that the President will
send any nominations to the Senate this
week.
The candidates for Minister to Mexico
are General Fitzpatrick, present Minister
to Chilli; General Vickery Averill, present
Consul at Canada and Mcmahon, and
Messrs. Mowry, of Arizona, and Nugent,
of California.
Greeley has been officially notified of
his appointment as Minister to Austria. A
reply from him is expected Thursday

The journal was amended by striking out

The standing committees were selected,
with no important changes.
The message was read.
The Secretary of the Treasury was called
on for information regarding the taxes and

House.-Mr. Stevens renewed his bill
for schools in the District of Columbia.

The Reconstruction Committee was di-
rected to inquire into the expedency of

Mr.. Eldridge objected, saying that one
Texas under despotsm was enough.
Mr.. Stevens asked leave to introduce

ting southern States. Objected to, and
| withdrawn.
There was considerable and indignant
discussion regarding the premature publ
cation of the Presidents message.
The message was read and referred e

The Election Committee reported in
favor of Beck, Jones, Grover, and Knot OF
Kentucky, being sworn in. Trimble,
Brown, and Young, were excluded, pend
ing further inquiry.
Mr.. Schenck, from the Committee OF
Ways and Means, reported bill that all
cotton raised in the United States after
the year 1867 shall be exempt from tax
Mr.. Schenck refused to accept an amend
ment making the same law apply to sugar
Mr.. S. proceeded to explain why the
bill was not made to apply to cotton raised
this year. Ole-lifth of the crop was
already on the market, and q very large
portion had passed from the hands of the
producers, and growers would derive little
benefit from such exemption, which the
committee believed would be lmpolltlc ana
incxpedient.
Mr.. Brooks moved as substitute that
the tax be abolished and that no Amcri-
can manufactured cotton goods shall be
entitled to the benefit Of this act unless
shipped within ninety days after the pas,
