New YoRK, December IA 7ri-
bune special from Atlanta, dated 18th,
says that General Morgan, leading
Democratic member of the Georgia Leg
islsture, has published rejoiuder to
Congressman Tits, in which be says
"Neither the Senate or House intended
to submit the question of eligibility Of
the colored members 10 seats in the Leg
islature to the Supreme Court, and that
the present Legislature never will resest
negroes, or will it pass the Fifteenth
Amendment. These are settled facts.
For myself ! have been a submissionist
as long as intend to be, and have gone
as fer as intend to 90 to crafty the
unhallowed will and domineering spirit
of corrupt Congress"
The Democratic papers quote the
above ss manly sentiments, and having
the ring Of true metal. General Morgan
occupies the sect of an expelled negro
member. The press denounce General
Terry as cd infamous liar, and sdvo-
cate making the State too hot TO hold the
friends Of the Administration. An at
tempt was made to assessinate S. A.
Darrell and Peter 0'Neill, Republican
members of the Legislature, 10 MiIledge-

The Heralds special from London,

ment Of the late Mr. George Peabody has
not yet been passed for probate at Doc
tors Commons, in that city. The oon-
tents of this important document are,
however, set forth substantially as fol-
lows. viz: The Peabody property in
England is set down under four hundred
thousand pounds. He bequeaths Eve
thousand pounds to each one of the
executors; one hundred and fifty thou
sand pounds to London charity, payable
within three years, after the manner
in which he directs. 4 few legacies Of
minor amounts to individuals have been
left, and the balance remaining to be
divided, as directed, among his friends
IN america. Tne trustees are Mr.. Geo.
Peabody Russell and two other nepheWs,
who are made residusry legaiees and
empowered to eettle sll the affairs con-
nected with the property in America,
which is estimated az ranging between

Democratic ward meetings will be held
tonight OF the following named places
to elect delegates to the City Convention
which convsnes at eleven o'clock, on the
2lst instant, in the Circuit Courtroom, t.
nominate candidates for Mayor, Wharf
master and City Tax-Collector.
First Ward Railroad Depot.
Second Ward-Exchsnge Building.
Third Ward-Esquire Kiernan's office.
Fourth Ward-Office Of P. M. Dickin-
son, ESQ.,. Second street.
Fifth Ward--Municipal Court Rooms.
Sixth Ward--Wsldran Block.
Seventh Ward-Ferguson Hall.
Eighth Ward-Poplar street market
honse.
Ninth Wsrd-Chelsea House.
Tenth Ward-Teufels Hall, near cor
per of fernando and South streets.
The apportionment for the wards was
fixed at one delegate for every hundred
white voters, and ona for every fraction
over fifty-the Ward registration up 10
noon last Friday, as furnished by Com
missioner Boughner, being accepted as
the basis Under this ruling, the delega-
tons will be as follows: lst ward, s.;
I'd, a; Sd. s; 4tb, 5; 9th, 3; 9Th, 3; It'll, Z;
9th. A; 9th, 3; 10th, 3-total, Al.
It will be seen that the Convention
will be small body, and it is all impor-
tant that only the best men be selected
as delegates. Every man, therefore, who
feels any interest in the future credit and
prosperity of the city, should attend his
ward meeting tonight, and constitute
himself committee of one to see that
no "cut and dried" programme is rushed
through. Let there be fair expression
Of the peopls-the taxpayers, the work
ingmen, and the unterri6ed people
who are not interested in the schemes of
politicians.
The city election, under the new char
ter, will take place on the 9Th Of January,
when Aldermen snd Councilmen will
also be elected. Each ward is allowed,
under the new charter, one Alderman
and two Councilmen. 1t is understood
nominations for these offices will be made
tonight 10 all the wards. Hence, the
greater Importance Of q full attendance.
There is more political juggling going
on just new than was ever known, SO it
behooves the people to be wide-awake.
They are entering upon new era, the
importance of which cannot be over
estimated.
