item A emetic FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. — Suspay, Deo. 22, 1867. The bear movement in gold spent its force last week, and the market remained steady at the decline, the extreme range having beon from 135 to 1834, with the closing transactions at 1333;. The “short’’ interest out- Fianduzy 1% however, very heavy, the expectation being that the disbursams¢t of avout thirty millions in coin by the Treasury in January will further the depress the premium; but it is more than probable that the effect of this payment has been over discounted, and that in- stead of a fall there will be a rise after the gold in @uestion has been paid out. The large “short” inierest tmvolved an active borrowing demand from the Dears, and loans were generally made without interest to either party, although 2a 5 percent was paid for the use of the coin in many instances. Of the ‘amount to be paid out by the Treasury im January a tertain portion will have to b> remitted to Europe; and when the necessary appropriations are made seven mil- lions in specie will have to be sont to Russia to pay for that territorial luxury, Alaska; and soon afterwards a further large sum will go to Denmark on account of ‘the islands of St, Thomas aud St, Joon, while if Cubs should be purchased (ifiy millions will bo required at Once, and another ii(t7 m/ionsin ayear hence, But ‘the Treasury is not in acondition to make these pay- @ente without exlausing ita reserve aad in- ‘creasing the risk of coming into the mar- ket as @ buyer of goid, The policy for tho Treasury Wo puraue is to hoard as much coin as possible, for in Proportion to the amount of ite reserve will bo the @rength of the public credit and the confidence of the poople in tts ability to resiore specie paymonts at somo fature time, The customs receipe at this port last ‘Week wore only $1,107 424, and it is easy to seo that during periods of commerciat depression the public in- come from this source m xht prove inadequate te meet the interest payments on the gold-bearing debt. As there iano prospect of a speedy resumption of specie Paymonis, and as it is not desirable that there should ‘be, gold is Ikely to remain et @ high Premium for a long time to come; for sgh ore are contingencies to which it fs exposed growing ‘out of the large amouut of our national securities held abroad, the possibility of which will always exert con- eiderable influence in maintaining the premium at a higher point than it would otherwise rule at, A low premium under existing circumstances is not to be ex- peoted, moithor is it to be desired. Values in paper money have become adjusted to a gold premium of a Little below 40, and it is against the interest of the sountry that they should be seriously disturbed, and flucteations in the price of gold, of, iu other words, in ‘the value of the currency, are directly calculated to jproduce this result’ What the people require is @tability in the value of tbe currency, and the more it changes in this respect the more values a1 ‘wnsettied, and business of all kinds is invested with the tisks of speculation, Tiere is nothing in the present yeondition of affaira to create distrust and advance the price of gold, but a natural and moderate reaction from the artificial depression to which {t-bas been subjected ta to be expected, and then the speculators who have for some weeks been working togoiher to promote a fall will, Gnding they cannot get the price lower, make equally strong efforts in favor of a rise, and ag one ex- treme involves another, soonor or later the results are Aavariably mischievous to tho people at largo, however profitable they may be to the speculators in the Gold Room. Tho Sub-lrea-ury disbursed $217,000 in pay- ‘ment of interost on the gold bearing debt during tho ‘week, and tho daily range of the market was as sub, The foreign exchange market was throughout firm at 448 36 per cont above par (or bankers’ sterling at sixty ‘days, and th’s resulted in an export of $1,584,206 in epecie and baliion from thie port and about a quarter fa million more from Boston, The supply of cotton ‘and produce bills was light, but yesterday bills drawn ‘by Duncan, Sherman & Co. on Baring Brothers, ef Lon- don, wore thrown on the market to the amount, it is said, of £350,000, and taken by tho foreicn bankers, in @ absence of which the shipments of especie ; it is supposed, have been larger, ‘Ihe Heppearance of the bitte was a source of surprise to tho dealers in exchange, and {t is not known on what ac- Leount they were drawn.

Procevdings of the Reconstruction Convene tion—The Resolution Requesting General Pope to Remove the Gevernor—A Spicy aud Exciting Debate—Speech of President Pare roté In OppositionmA Member Desires to Civilize the South—Chai Against the Members—Final Passage of the Resolution. Attayta, Ga, Dec, 18, 1867, As I predicted at the close of my letter of yesterday, the resolution of Mr. Caldwoll requesting General Pope to remove Governor Jenkins and appoint Mr. Bullock in his place was the subject of an angry and excited debate to- day, which lasted throughout the session, at the close of which the flual vote was taken and tho matter settled. As soon a3 the journal had been read Mr. Branuer (mulatto), who had the door, continued bis remarks in support of the resolution, and after alluding to the reasons ho had giveu the day beforo ne suddenly com- menced an attack upon Goneral Pope for not baving removed ail of the present State officers, He dectared with great vehemonce that the General had prevented reconstruction by the course he had pursued, “Ido not wwh to make any reflections upon Gonoral Pope,” be exciaimed; “I make a direct charge agatust bim. I chargo bim with having directly proveuted reconstruction by keepmg those men ia office and with having thus aided our enomies—the enemies’ of the ropubtican party, You may talk to me about his posi- tion; but it was because those mon have white skins, I want these robel officials removed. Wo have men here just as capablo as they. ‘Lho voters of the Stato de- mand a change, at least the majority does. We repre- Sent bore 60,000 colored men and only 36,000 white Ones, aad Mf oven the whites wish Governor Jonkina the colored do not, Shall the white minority rule the Diack majority? No! There are more colored men in whoaided to put “peed rebellion with guus and bayonets than whi! Voice must be heard.’? In this manner the mulatto went on for about twenty-five tery iy from a written paper a apeech com- = of interrogatories, all of which he answered imsetf with the words, “Our present Provisional Governor.” The gentloman favored the resolution. President Parrott vacated the chair, and made « pag speech in opposition to the resolution, Ho de- fended General Pope trom tho assault of Bradley, deciared tha. although Governor Jenkins bad dove much of late to merit his condemnation, he could do no harm to reconstruction, bocause was undor control of General Pope. He denounced the measure being that of a clique of mon that desired to get ‘trot of the State government, and asked if General Pope was to be abused because he would not contribute to the ambition and avaricioisness of mon whose solo object was to put their hands into the pockets of the State and grasp the spoils, There was no other motive it was the ambition of a few men who desired to prost! tute the Convention for sake of offic Ho was op- to makiag this body a political caucus; but for two days # had beon nothing better, and the tele- raph had carried tha tact to every part of the Union. [a conclusion Mr. Parrott offered a motion postponing action upon the resolution umiit the 8h of Janury next, Mr. J. R. Dunning, of Atianta, ke in opposition to tho measure, Tuis gentleman invariably speaks one way and votes another, Afler making the most sensibie speech in opposition to the resviution he deliberately voted in favor of its Mr. Bryant made a very violent haranguo in support of the resolution, He denounced Governor Jonkius as being in the company of **murderere, rebeis and the assasei Avdersvaville,” Ail talk about this not being « parti-a Doay was nonsense; it was partisan in ono sense of the word. It was there to advance the interests of the re- } egy party and the reconstraction acts of Congress. le believed in the great republican party; ho loved the reconstruction acts of Congress. He had been a repub- hheaa ail his life, and the atieman made tuo astouish- ing announcement that he ‘took it from his mother's milk."’ He did not betieve that the presont Siate officers should remain in power; they aflorded uo protection the people, and he gave the generally accepted idea of the Southern man in bts part of the country by declaring that Union men were being daly set upon in Georgia “by ruflians aod with bows knives and revolvers, ir. Bryant declared that be ved to be “secured from Bowie Knives and revol- ? he wanted oificials who would protect him and the colored peopie in their rights, He also wisnod Mr. Bullock to be Provisional Goveroor, That individual wasa mau of ability; he had inteilect stamped on his brow, and the only argument he had heard brought against hima was thas he was a “member of this nigger Convento: Mr. Saitold anid that ali the talk he had listened to about sixty-nine thousand negro voters being ropre- sented in the Convention was all posh. To was elected froma district in which there were only six- teon hundred white voters out of a total registry of over five thousand, and neituer his colleague nor homscif had received seventy-five white votes; ho was, there- fore, elected by negroes, but he had not come thers to texistate for any particular rage, He had come there to perform «@ high nativnal parpose, and not to scramble for office, He was, thank (od, a native fore ‘he. was uot one oF mea eome ato the Stato a few Wacks azo aud wanted to rulo every- thiog and everybody. (Applouso from the white Spectators, which was checked by tue Preeideut.) jo opposed the passngo of the resolution, When it wis read be said Le amoit the spoils of oilice in (he very air. There was something disgusting to him in this seramblo for office; it was utterly contempubie, and would be #0 rezarded by the outside world. The time for a division of the ep had not yot como; let them make a cousti- tution first, and afer it had been ratified by ihe people they could look for spoils, Tne enemies of the Conven- tiom were organizing and were gaining sirength every day. They were the wealth and inteligonce of the State, and if this resolution was possed it would place a Weapon in their hands wich would jeopar not destroy, the entire work of the Conve: Prince said that he bed beard ali thi bad said about nauvo Goorgians, He was proud to Aamit thet he was a sonof New England, He had come al! the way from hrs pative tocks and lumber foresis to aid in engrafuing upon the poople of Georgia those princi of “treed: whiew exiss in this highly philanthropic parpose the jengtu in favor of the removal of Governor Jen d tho appoiniment of Buliock, whom he believed the very essence of statesmanbip and Onancial aoiliy. ive Union mi waid that the declaration of Mr, I'rince explained the animus of the wnole sjuestion, He (Mr. Princo) was trom New England, and nota native Georgian, and just such men ja tue Convention wanted to gresp the spoils of office fo the State, (Sonsation, and applause frow the white spectators.) Ho had come there with views diferent from those entertained by the majority ; but he had en- deavored to cast aside all partwan feelings aad to assit im framing a constitution under which the whole people could live at peace and in prosperity, Was the Couven- tion acting in this apirtt ? or was (t not then considert & resolution of the most shamelessly partisan charactor He warned the delegates present it Governor Joakius was the chosen representative of the legal pee oa acd must not be disturbed. If the majority, yielding to passion and prejudice, went on in the way they had been going ever since the meeting of the Con- veution the result would be that thoy would array race against race, to the detriment of both and the final ex- termination of one. He desired the restoration of the Union, and #o did every native Georgian ; but he did not wish « restoration brought about by means of injustice snd proscription, and the people of Georgia would never consent to any reconsiruciion which was founded upon the entlaverment or proscription of a single one of their country men. As Mr, Holcombe mado this declaration the white Spectators again loudly applauded bim, aud the Presi. dent, rising, requested that no such manifestations be made im future, Mr. Holcombe continued his remarks and said that he saw no cause for the removal of Governor Jonkins; he bad done nothing to morit removal, Besides, the very fact that such a resolution was deemed necessary was a censure by implication upon General Pope, and if the Convention believed that the Geueral bad not faithfully performed his duty he would move a resolution ro- questing President Jovnson to remove him and appoint some other commander in hs place, Takev as a whole Mr. Holoombe's speech was a very sensibie and tem- perate one, but was utterly lost upon the majority. Mr, McCoy (moderate republican) said that it had been aly charged that men not natives of Georela—tmen who had boen in tho State only a few weeks or monthe— had formed a combination and had come to the Couveus ton for the sole purpose of grabbing ell the offices in the State, He bad not believed tho charge, but was forced to admit that the resolution iooked very much that way, and if it was passed everybody would believe that the charge was troe, There was no noceusty for removing Governor Jenkins; he bad not the slightest power nor tuflnence; had no official patronage of any consequence, and the only appoint. ment within bw gift was that of superintendent of the peottentiary, superintendent of the State road (Western ana Atlantic Rajiroad, runuing from Avanta to Chatta- nooga), and perhaps one or two moro offices of au insig- nideant oature, And that brought him to the main reason that underlies the whole question; it was notuing but an effort (o seize the State road, ‘The resolution was the scbeme of a few mon who bad ooly been in the State afew weeks or mouths, but who were anxious to take pomestion of the offices under the State govern. ment, Had any reason been assigned—any good roason—why Governor Jonki should be removed! ral Pope, notwithstanding bis great powers, dared jovernor without ® cause, The Generaj wos respo thority, whieh would neve permit such ap outrageous act, Mr, Caldwell, the author of the rerolntion, enid that yosterday he had authority of ono next in power to General Pope to dec! that a measure of this Kind was needed, and he hoped that tho resolution would be adopted, He did not favor the “infamous attack” mado upon General Pope. Mr. Bradley (mulatto)—Mr. President, I rise to a point of or I don’t want to be calied ‘infamous,’ Mr. Caldwell rejoined that he didn’t cail anybody ‘‘nfamous,” only the attack, Proceeding with his > said en Nel ho Ne Bot favor the attack he equally opposed the panegyrics pasted upon My He “wouldn't kiss his foot and wouldn't lic!

The Convention did but little of interest.to-day. As was expected, the name of Mr, Bullock, the express agent, and one of the delegates {rom Augusta, was again proposed for recommendation to General Pope for the office of Provisional Governor of Georgia, when Gover- nor Jenkins ¢hall have beon removed. But little oppo- sitiom was mado to the measure, the minority well knowing that the whole scheme was a ‘“‘cutand dried one,” to use the language of a delcgate, and that noth- ing done by tuo few honest men in the Convention could Prevent the passage of the measure, It wasaccordingly passed by a vote of 81 yeas to 59 nays. Mr. Chatters, a negro delegate, tniroduced a bill for the relief of delegates, which stated that a goodly num- ber of tho members of the Convention were men of re duced means, and had not the money to pay their expenses with. If, therefore, some relief was not afloried to thom they would be unable to return to their homes during the holidays. Tbe bill went on to provide ‘the Means fo the payment of theso umpecuntous mem- bers from tio uceting of the Convention to its recoss. A resolution fring tho pay and mileage of the Con- vention at the same rates as those received by the last Avsombly of thie State was passed. ‘Mr, Millcr o'fered a resolution, which was adopted, fanking Goneral Pope for the “wisdom, justice and with which he bad exorcised the vast pow- ers to bim by the acts of Congress, Asmall sonsation was caused by Mr. Blount offering a resolution requiring the Committee on Priviloces aud Elections to inquire into the truth of the statemont mado that Messrs, Bryant, Clift, Coston and others (Yankees), and Turner (negro), had not resided in the State tweive months at the time of their election as delegates to the ( onvention, and were consequently not citizens of Goorgia, It having been siated by a member that the Treasurer of the State had intimated a determination not to order the payment of any funds for tho use of the Convention, Mr. Bryant rove up excitedly, and declared that it was time for the Convention to show what its powers were. Thoy would soon have a “loyal'’ goveruor (looking at Mr. Bullock), and now they required a **loyal’’ Treasurer, He thoretore offere! a resolution removing the present ‘“rebel’’ incumbent of that office, Tho resolution has not yet been acted upon, but when itiscatied up, there is not th» slightest doubt of its being passed.
