ATLANTA, Sept. 3-Yesterday the House passed
resolution to hold two sessions during the eligibil
ity discussion This morning, Turner, negro, spoke
and held the floor during the whole session. He SAID
he was entitled to his seat and would not crnge for
or beg for it. There in the history of the world
parallel to the issue presented to-day; never be-
fore were men arraigned before the Legislative
body for an offence committed by Almighty God
himself. He did not know until the past three
weeks the imbecilty of the Anglo-SaxOn race. This
momentOus question could not be settled to-day,
but would be handed down to generations as long
as the sun goes down. Who first took up recon-
structon under Congress? 1t the brawny
black man. This is his Legislature? The grcal
question is, am | man? If / am, claim the
rights of man. The Democratic principle is never
to find their level until they find them in negroes of
Pluto and PrOserpne.
The Democratic leaders advised the people to re-
main away from the polls, and then blame the peo
pie because negroes find seats on this floor. Every
State has been reconstructed under the act that
discrimination should be made on account of color,
race, previous condition. If every scalawag and
carpetbagger could ride into power on the backs of
black men, and ask Congress to take away the bal
lot and submit the question to Congress or a Con-
VentiOn, when made he would abide the decision
The Constitution of the United States does not
cognize God; His name is not in it. If this mea-
sure is carried, will call Convention of my peO-
PIE and send for carpet-baggers, scaawags, Yam
KEGS, and anybody for a Legislature, except GeOr-
never to be nut out. You viii make us YOUR foes

against Democracy This thing means revolution;
Look out carpet-baggers. When go they will
turn you out, impeach Governor Bullock, and up
set the constitution.

Speaker, and waved their hats to the members.
heavy rain has prevailed here for two days.
SAVANNAH, Sept "a white boy, who mysteri-
ousy disappeared, has been found murdered by
negroes near this city. His gun and clothes were
gone, and it is supposed he killed for them. An
inquest was held, and verdict rendered that he
was killed by some persons unknown. There is
much excitement in the city, and parties have been
out three days hunting the body. They met armed
bodies of negroes, who halted them with military
precision. Parties are now out securing the cOun-
try in search of the murderers.

liam Ii. Herr, seized sundry barrels of whisky
on Wednesday, which, it is alleged, were in
packages not properly marked. One load was
seized IN Dlllwyn street, and the other at Arch

of the loads, when he found the officers
approaching, put the whip to his horse and tried
to make hls escape, but he did not succeed.
This horse and wagon was seized, as well as the
whisky, because the conduct of the driver
implied knowledge on his part that the whisky
was Conuaband.
