General Meade before the
Georgia Convention.

General Meade made visit to the Geor-
gia Constitutional Convention, now in ses-
sion at Atlanta, last Thursday, and, being
called upon, made brief speech. His re-
marks greatly cheered the Radicals, and
completely disipatcd the hopes Of the reb-
els, who suppo sed him a tool of the Pres
iden', appointed 20 reiard rather than push
forward The work Reconstruction. The
following is the telegraphic report of Gen
eral Meade's address
He said he considered Il his duty 10 ex-
ecu,c the law of Congress. As a soldier
he could not question The validity of that
law, nor would he allow il to be thwar,ed.

The General took his seat amid great
cheering, and the CONVENTION had an inter
mission of fifteen minutes To enable mem
bers 10 be introduced to him.
IL is difficult 10 estimate the effect Of
General Meade's speech 1t has given

judge, you are clothed with full power TO
demand the release of every man arrested
by military authority, applied, of course,
to the oppression of the loyal men of that
State. All of this in the name Of law and
justice and right. Do you believe that it
Is meted out TO them? Let the massacre
at Memphis and the horrible tragedy at
New Orleans answer that; and think of it,
that order was written on the very spot
where that bloody tragedy was enacted, an
account of which sent thrill of horror in
10 the heart of every being in Christenlom
that order which declares that this pow
er shall be directed only to sustain their
laws and government. | read that order
with mingled sorrow and contempt. Gen
eral Hancock was a ncble member of the
Union army, and his record one that any
man might well be proud of He was
wounded in the service of his country, and
justly earned tire laurels borne by him from
many battle field; but | saw that when
he lent his powers to the enemies of his
country, and to those who ought still to be
his enemies, that his laurels would wither
and his name go down amid the condemn
actions of a people whose honor he has
insulie6.
The great questions of the campaign. in
1868 are, then, / repeat, the maintenance
of this Government, the justice of the war,
or the right of the rebellion. Ard these
are the questions which are to be decided:
lo6S is to determine whether this Govern
ment is to remain in the hands Of Union
men, or to be allowed to pass into the
h snds of Southern men.
My voice is growing weak and my
strength failing me; so that shall have to
close my remarks, thanking you, ladies
and gentlemen, for the attention you have
given me.
AT the conclusion ofthe speech vote
of thanks was rendered TO Mr.. Morton, af-
ter which the meeting adjourned.

Mineral Wealth Of Western
Indiana.

The indianapolis Herold says: But few
of the people of Indiana have any idea of
the rich mineral deposits of Clay, Vigo and
Putnam counties, adjoining the line of the
Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railroad, and
especially the first named. In some res
poets those deposits have no equal. Iron
manufacturers will understand the value of
Brazil coal when we state that it approx
mates very near TO charcoal if it does not
quite. for melting purposes. For that use
it is the best mineral coal in the world and
perhaps there is none other likeit--at least
none has yet been discovered. In appear
ance and gravity il resembles charcoal.
even to the wood fibre of the latter. So
valuable is it that one furnace in St Louis
is using five Car loads day. and it is prob
able that in a shart time the demand for it
in that city and Chicago will ne equal to
the capacity Of the railroad TO furnish
There is also an abundance of native iron
ore in the neighborhood of Brszil. and of a
superior quality. When this is mixed with
Missouri, Iron Mountain and Lake Superi-
or, which can be transported cheaper TO
the mills along the Terre Hautc Railroad
than it can be TO the iron regions of Ohio
and Pennsylvania, iron of better quality

made than in those States. An experienced
iron man from Cleveland informed us the
other day, that in two years the country
from Greene astle to Terre Haute will be
equal in iron works TO the Mahoning Val
ley in Ohio, with far greater advantages for
making iron. A number of iron men from
Ohio and Pennsylvania have lately made
heavy investments in the neighborhood of
Brazil. An Ohio company has bought and
leased 10000 acres of coal lands, and arc
now erecting large furnace and rolling
mill at Harmony, three miles east of Brazil.
The investments this year will amount TO
$500, 900. and they intend to erect mill
for rolling railroad iron next year.. This is
only Oae point. At Terre Haute there is
fine merchant iron mill being erected, an
other at Greencastle, and one in this city.
and ali viii viii he ready for operation du-
ring the coming fall. At Brazil, large
furnace. costing 100000, owned by an In
dianapolis company, is nearly completed.
Its capacity will be twenty-five tons per
day. This company intend TO erect another
stack, as the machinery is ample for two.
Just cast of Harmony another furnace is
being erected by the indianapolis Rolling
Mill Company. These Improvements go
ing on this year will give some idea of the
rapid development Of the iron interest be-
tween, and including, Terre Haute and In
llanapolis, and this is but the beginning.
