marks made by the Senator from Craven.
He was surprised that his friend from
Martin should have introduced these reso
lutions, and hoped that he would with
draw them. They may have been intro
duced in jest, but it was too serious d
matter to jest about. There are two things
that cannot be trifed with-one is the
virtue OF woman and the other the honor
ot man. He did not make these re-
marks because he thought these resolu-
tions reflected on him, but because they
appeared 20 ridicule the resolutions which
be introduced on yesterday. There is
something behind them. The scoundrels
who are guilty, are quaking in their
shoes, but they cannot escape they shall
not escape that punishment which is due
them.
Mr.. Martindale said he did not intend
to cast any reflection or odium on any
Senator on the floor by introducing the
resolution. The only object he had in
view was to retaliate on the Sentinel
After some further discussion the reso-
luton was withdrawn.
On motion, the Senate adjourned until
tomorrow at 10 o'clock.

Mrs. Harriet Beeoher stowe Converted.

We hear from Florida that Mrs. Bsecher
Stowe, the authoress of "Uncle Toms
Cabin" who year or two ago bought q
place on the st. Johns River. near Jack
sonville, says she wants to live long enough
to write another book to correct the mis-
takes of "Uncle Tom," and show that
great bluDder was committed when slavery
was abolished. From original condition
of sentimental attachment to the negro
she has lapsed into state of unconquera-
BILE dislike and aversion. She will not
have them about her, either in doors or
out She turned them all off her place,
and allows no one with black skin to ap-
proach her. We are told that an acquaint-
ance OF ours sought to send her message
by black stewardess on board steam
boat, but she refused to allow the negro
to approach her. Her mind. as we have
been credibly informed, is very much in
famed against the negro and this, proba-
bly,, from comparing their efficiency and
aptitude as laborers and servants with that
of the Northern whites. Her fancy picture
of the African has been spoiled, and her
sentimental affection has turned, in conse-
quence, to violent aversion. Like Squeers,
the milk of human sympathy in her bosom
has all turned to curds and whey.

The ups aud downs of life are completely
and sadly illustrated in the lives OF Geo

The latter, when boy, entered the Louis,

Prentince WAS in the zenith of his power.
Geo. D. Prentice. in those days, was great
man. he stood second to none among the
editors of Wing journals in the land in

was known as man OF talent, power and
influence in the country. Geo d. Prem

SENATE.
WEDNFSDAY- Dec. 9. 1868

WEDNESDAY, Dec. 2, 1868.
Mr.. Sweet rose to a question of privi
lege. He had seen in one of the morning
papers an editorial article called " "Practi-
cal Reconstruction, which, after charging
himself and Senator Robbins with being
in political sympathy with each other, and
with selling out their political principles,
concluded with the following paragraph {:
" Senator Robbins claims to bf Demo
crat and Senator Sweet claims be Re-
publican, yet SO complete is the sympathy
between them that it is difficult to tell
which is the Republican aud which the
Democrat. They have become moral
Siamese twins. and their separation now
would be almost impossible, and the only
existing doubt is-rOhich party can claim
both Of them." He desired to say that these
charges were false as. hell, and that the
writer Of the article knew them to be so
when be made them. He was as firm in
his faith in Republican principles as any
man. Those principles were implanted in
him at his birth, aud had always given
them an earnest aud unqualified support.
| He believed as entirely i'll the justice of the
| Republican party as men believed in
| God. It was party that went in the high
ways, byways and hedges. and when it
| found man created in the image of mis-
| COG, prostrated by unequal laws, elevated
him to the condition OF man. Repnbll-
can principles were part Of his very ex-
istence and blood, and he who wrote that
article we'll knew this, and had written it
for purpose. Why did certain persons
thus gratuitously object to this investiga-
ton and try to bring this committee into
ridicule He would give key to unlock
this mystery, that would disclose the mo-
tive of this article and the course pursued
with reference to the committee. Every
member of the General Assembly. whether
of the House or Senate, or only an humble
| member of the third house who sought to
destroy confidence in the committee, are
actuated by purposes of his own to prevent
the committee from having the power to ex-
pose his own corruption, and he who wrote
this article knew that he was implicated
He would say to all that these attacks
upon the committee woald have no other
effect than to accelerate pursuit. He would
not descend to the cess-pool Of abuse, but
.ycu.d say that individuals were trembling
like aspen leaves because they knew they
were guilty and that their guilt was going
to find them out. He knew the rectit1de
of himself as chairman of the committee
and thought each member of the committee
controlled by the same aspirations as him.
self. He was also charged with claiming to
be repre- sentative man OF his party in the
Senate. No man could say he had ever pro.
posed Or suggested personal promotion. and
he who made such charges made them for
falsehood and for bad purpose. He
would conclude by saying that he had no
aspirations but aspirations for the welfare
of North Carolina, and to be honest, and
he should always expose corruption when
ever it raised its hideous head.
Mr. Galloway would respectfully suggest

Atlanta CGa.) DIunIoIpaI Election

ATLANTA. Dec. 1.-The mayor and mu-
nicipal council have ordered the postpone
ment of the municipal election until the
assembling of the Legislature in January,
taking the ground that negroes are not en-
titled to vote under the law granting the
city charter, and that the election will be
null and void unless the present Legisla
ture strikes out the word white in the
city charter.
The Democrats claim that the State con
stitution and reconstruction laws give ne
groes the right to vote, notwithstanding
the municipal law, and propose holding u
regular election, allowing blacks to vote,
leaving the Legislature to decide as to its
legality.

Referred to the judiciary Committee.
Resolution to appoint special commit
tee to investigate the affairs of the Bank of
North Carolina and the Bank of the State
of North Carolina.
Mr.. Estes offered amendments to include
the Bank of Cape Fear.
Amendments agreed to and resolution
adopted.
A message from the Senate was received,
transmitting for concurrence joint resolu-
tion to provide for the appointment of a
Joint special committee of three on the
part of the Senate and five on the part of
the House to investigate charges of bribery
and corruption against members of the
General Assembly; and announcing that
the Senate had appointed Messrs. Sweet,
Robbins and Forkner as the Senate branch
of said committee.
Mr.. Sinclair said that in effect this was
not resolution but a bill, aud he moved
that it be printed.
Mr.. Estes moved to amend the motion
by making the bill special order for
Saturday next at IL o'clock.
Mr.. Pou opposed any delay.
Mr.. Estes said the reason of his moving
to make special order for Saturday Was
that there are already special orders ior
Thursday and Friday. He agreed that the
matter should be acted upon Immediately.
But this is Star Chamber proceeding. It
is introduced by O gentleman who has
pledged his honor as Senator and gentle
man to prove charges against members Of
this or the other House. He was willing
to give him fair chance to do SO, but the
bill gives all the powers necessary to make
man criminate himself. It gives the
committee full power to call upon any
member of this Legislature, the Governor
and all his officers to bring papers here
and make them criminate themselves. He
thought it should be printed for the infor
nation of members, and considered as ear.
ly as possible, and moved that it be made
special order for tomorrow at IL O'Clock
A. Nj.
Mr.. Harris, of Wake, was glad this sub
iect has been brought up, because this
body was affected to be held in disrepute
by many persons, and it had now an op-
portunity to vindicats its character. He
agreed that the resolution gave power to
convict men before 70 petty committee,
without o jury. without a notice of the
charges preferred against them, without 0
hearing, and contrary TO the letter and

Mr.. Estes said he arose to move the adop-

yesterday, when he moved to make them
the special order for to day, to vote for
them. He would vote for them now,
though he objected to them. His friends
had told him it would not do for him to

him in any opposition to them. He was
not afraid of public opinion. He stood
