FROM THE SOUTH.

AUGUSTA, o., Jan. II.
A correspondence between General Meade
and Governor jenkins is published. Gene
raj Meade considers theordiuanee PASSED by
the Montgomery Convention to levy and col
lect specific tax for defraying its expenses,
and requiring the Treasury of Georgia to ad>
vance forty thousand dollars, to be replaced
when the tax is collected, as An appropria-
ton by law, in the sense used by the Consti.
,ution Of Georgia. Major General Meade
therefore requests Governor Jenkins TO issue
q warrant on the Treasurer for the amount
called for by the Convention. de further
says that he is clearly of the opinion that the
Convention is authorized, by the Reconstruc'
ton acts. to exercise such legislative power
a. NAV be necessary for it to discharge the
duties which said acts impose. General
