Clothing himself. --A negro named William Johnson is in custody at the station-house on the charge of stealing a coat.
Greeley in favor of A. H. Stephens for United States Senator. --After announcing that Mr. Stephens has declined to be a candidate for United States Senator from Georgia, the New York Tribune adds: "We would far prefer the reformatory convictions and trustful foresight of Mr. Stephens to the merely negative qualities of Mr. Johnson, who, if not quite given over to the mulisliness which characterizes a few of his contemporaries, was never a decided or wholesome actor or thinker, and is unable to digest the present condition of affairs. Georgia has a real Union party, however small, who are the most chagrined sufferers by the ruling process of reconstruction; but there is no hope whatever that Georgia, more than any other late insurgent State, will select her architects from the class of tried Unionists."
ture he said that now there is no conflict between the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Georgia, and the laws of the United States are supreme. He pays a handsome tribute to the good conduct of the negroes during the war, and says they must be thoroughly protected in their persons and property, have the right to enter the courts, and should be encouraged to work, and they will then be the best working class, and their late owners the best employers, in the world. He reviews the condition of the State institutions, and says that even light taxes will be burdensome, but thinks the people will not suffer, and concludes with the words, "God help us all." Provisional Governor Johnson then tendered the oath to Governor Jenkins, who was then declared by the President of the Senate to be Governor of Georgia. The sentiments expressed in the address were cordially endorsed by the members of the Legislature, which body will adjourn tomorrow.
Other Dispatches. In addition to the above, we have received from Johnson's line other dispatches concerning the "The Fenians," "A Visit to Mr. Davis," "Mr. Harris, of Maryland," and various Washington items, all of which we had obtained from other sources, and which will be found elsewhere in our columns.
