OLOPAIA POLITIM.
A long communication from a commit
mittee of the present Georgia Legislattue
was veiterday laid before the Senate Ju
diciary Committee. They claim that the
former Legislature was composed In part
of ineligible persona; that the present
one was convened in pursuance of an act
of Congress requiring reorganization, In
which none but eligible members would
be. permitted to take seats; they say
that the old clerk had died, and
that the new clerk was clearly
eligible, and hence the precedent set by
Gen. Meade in 1868 was followed In the.
appointment of °Mom to organize the
respective bodies. They add: We shall
say nothing of their inns's. Gen. Terry
being on the 'pot, knew both gentlemen
well, and hisendoreementahould and we
believe will be sufficient for your honora
ble Committee. As to seating the next
highest, when en ineligible member
bad been voted for, it has not. only
the sanction of the Committee, but
• published circular that this rule
would be adopted. This, too, la a
question that was settled by the body
after Hs complete and fall organization.
If eligible members have been ousted,
and ineligible members seated, we yield
jurisdicUon and earnestly ask for Its
immediate correction. As to the effect
of a tion by Congress of this an
the firetallY organism" body of OBl
ble members of the Georgia Leghdeleee,
suffice it to say we are not respon
stble for It, nor should this question be
settled other than by the Constitution,
ordlniumeandlawsof Mato. When they
are enforced we shall be content. Many
surmises, conjectures and aspersions by
honorable gentleman are cast upon
Governer Bullock and insinuated swans.
General Terry. We know they cannot
stand, for It is but a repetition of similar
charges from equally as respectable
source.
The - Committee close by submitting
that If the object of Congress was to or.

eligible members undo the Fourteenth
Amendment, and who could take the
required oaths, and her, not to ex•
elude eligible members who reoelved the
