"^V^HERE AS, by an act ol the General Assem bly of tliis State, passed the 241 h day De cember, 1832, entitled “an Act to provide for the call of a Convention to reduce the number of the General Assembly of the State of Georgia, and for other purposes therein named,” it is provided •‘That it shall be the duty of Ilis Excellency the Governor to give publicity to the alterations and amendments made in the Constitution in reference, jo the reduction of the number of members coat-1 dosing the General Assembly--and the first Mon-; day i.i October next, after the rising of said Con- | venlion, he shall fix on for the ratification, by the ; people, of such amendments, alterations or new arti cles as they may make for the objects of reduction & equalization of the General Assembly only: and if 1 ratified by a majority of the voters who vote on the j question of “Ratification” or “No Ratification” I —then, in that event, the alteration so by them made and ratified, shall be binding upon the peo ple of this Stale, and not otherwise.” And, where- 1 as, the Delegates of the people of this State, as- I Sembled in Convention under the provisions of the before recited act, have agreed to, and declared the following to be alterations and amendments of the Coiistiution of this State, touching the repre , sentation of the people in the General Asssembly ' therfeo, to wit: “Whereas, the third section of the first article of the Constitution of the State of Georgia is in the I following words, to wit: “The Senate shall be elect- j ed annually on the first Monday in November, ut; til such day of election be altered by law, and ehail be composed ofone member Hom each courr- ; ty, to he chosen by the electors thereof ” \nd whereas a part of the seventh section of the first article ol the Constitution of the State of Georgia is in the following words, to wit: “The House of.

Mr. Barrett attended the Crqwn Of fice ut Dublin on the llih, for the purpose of being present at the sinking of a Jury prepara tory to his trial for a libel in publishing the liist letter of Mr. O’Connell. Although two months have not elapsed since the termination of our As'iscs, there are not ■ less than one hundred and eighty-eight prison- I ers at this moment confined in oui couniy jail 1 Os this unprecedentedly gre.it number, 74 were I committed from lhe 21th to the 30:h of 1 >st month—4l of the latter within lhe last two days ! — Kilkenny Moderator. Dublin, Saturday. Mr, Barrett, of the Pilot, attended accord- I ing lo notice at the Crown office, to strike off’ a special jury to try him for the publication oi Mr. O’Connell’s fust letter. lhe stt iking a jniy under lhe present liishimy law, is a faice. 1' nst, the return ot the panel is with the tiflicei oi the Crown, A* ihe Crown the party. I me, the traveiser has right to challenge twelve names out of the fust forty-eight. But hese aie so arranged of the head ot the list, that the Crown must have vutually 'he choice ol ih< jurois. I You may judge how the Crown has airanged i tl when 1 tell you that all the police magis i trates, aidermen, persons connected with the ' Castle and public boards, all are piled up at ' the top ot ihe list. I saw die panel—l rer kon ed the first 178 names, and how many Catho lics think you were on ii? by, exactly nine. I And the Crown having the power to strike off twelve, and as certainly the nine Catholics wii! be struck off, it is of course a jtuy compleielv of ihe nomination of the Crown! Ht.w would the other party here complain if ihe Mail were presented by O’Connell, and he had it in his power to Dominate a Catholic jury! And do iy ou not see that all the ends oi justice .are de- I seated; that there is hoiror of ihe punishment and sympathy for the tdi' iice, when power can i ci ush widi or without criniinalitv. I Mi. Bariett to day opened the proceedings by protesting against the panel. First, 'rum die facility oi packing it alfoided the Crown; secondly , because the present jury laws were acknowledged to be imperfect—were tainted, vitiated, and brought into contempt by the government itself, which had in progress another and amended Juiy Bill, and which, in a very shuit period, would come to be law. Mr. bourne, the Clerk of the Crown, said, “he supposed it before the trial die Jury Bill pass ed, a jury struck under the nreseut law wdiJU be superceded.” Now, this certainly showed that there was a sentiment of fairness in lhe breast of the Clerk of lhe Crown; bm ought ; not the same principle to cause the govern ment not to burry on a trial under an imperfect and now tained system? If the trial goes on, it will be spoken to on Mr. Barrett’s side by Mr. Shiel,and die topics which the subject will call for, will, I am assur ed, show up the Whigs in a very curiuns man ner. What think you ofone fact? Zi will be moved that one of lhe Plunkets—one of the young Hannibals, as he is called here, a son of the Chancellor, accompanied Marcus Costello to the arena, where the trades union meet, to’ encourage agitation and an address to Lord Grey, at the peiiod the Whigs tottered, there by to keep his party in ofl’n e. by doing what lie could to bring the borough mongering Pai liamenl “into contempt,” which is the allega tion against the Pilot, only the charge in that case is foi bringing the Act of union into con tempt. If the Tories had got into power and acted like the Whigs, the Whigs would have all been prosecuted for bringing the Parliament as then constituted in contempt. This prose cution is anotner sad blunder of lhe Whigs. The object was to catch O’Connell. is well known Barrett will not surrender O’Con- ■ nil to the tender mercies of the Whigs. They ; will fail in that—while the trial will pioduce ' more real agitation th hi the societies, which! they establish desponso law to suppress. 1 perceive the Globe is asserting that he despot ic bill is producing great satisfaction and iran-, quillity in Ireland. Don’t believe it. There was general iranquillity before the bloody and brutal bill. It might as well be said that Tip perary, which had been often much more dis turbed than Kilkenny, yet, which lias been quite tranquil the last two years, required the ; bill, or was quited by it, as Kilkenny. Kiiken- ' I ny, like Tipperary, would have been tranquil lized by the law of ihe land, and without the ' i trampling on the constitution. As a pacifica j tor, the bill is u selessj bin as a bill which sows : the seeds of future disturbance, it is sadly es- ■ fective. Aheady die parsons have been insli- ’ gated to an excessive rigor in collecting tithes— , .already agieemonts for compositions, which ! had been agreed upon by some of them, have i been broken, while Z see in Kilkenny that in ; formations have been actually taken by magis i trates against police men, for collecting tidies directly under lhe bill. Pay no attention to the cunning representations of tho Whig Globe Tile bill is bad in principle—bad in practice— bad as a piecedent, and intended to smooth ; the way for inflicting its atrocious provisions and powers upon you in England,—JV.

No public meeting can venture to expt css its | sympathy. Ihe leaden hoof of despotism en acted by law stifles public opinion, and scatters every public meeting which could give a shield or a shelter to any oi the victims oi persecu tion. But, although the “Rrfornud" Pailianient ' has enacted such a law, and ulthougf lhe rnise iy ol Ireland tails unheeded on die dull cold ear ol the men who have yot, even yet, io- I inaining the boldness to call themselves reform- 1 ers—however, lit land has many fi tends a mongst the English people; ihe people, em phatically lhe people of L tigk.nd, a. v rousing hi our bcnalf, they h> e | di.it they have a com mon cause of common fieedoni with the pt ;pie ol lieland.

I repeat it, the people of England are our friends. The present most inefficient ministry have lost all character and almost all popular support, by that total dereliction of every con stitutional and liberal principle which thev ex hibited in their Coeicion Bill for Ireland.—— That tyrannic measure has reacted on them selves, and the moral strength which they lost by its means cannot possiblv be ever regain ed. The total defeat of the Whig candidates at every recent election, the triumph of liberty over Hobhouse and Burdett, ami “dear Da Vearf' and all that group of motley politicians in Westminister, is one of tho most decisive evidences which could be given of the state of the public sentiment in reference to the “coer sion ministry.” My mind expands and my heart exults at the opening prospects —yes, this ministry of hypocritical professionsand liberti cidal acts must soon disappear. There cannot be a change for lhe worse, and the change for the better will soon disengage Ireland from the base fetters she now wears, and once again at tach her to British connection, by a reciproci ty of benefits and privileges. I he defeat ol Hobh<>use secures the fate of the present ministry. They may struggle on a I little while, but their doom is sealed,and thou lhe air of liberty may be breathed in Ireland ! once again. I look io changes useful to Ireland and salu . tary to ihe empiie with tho more confidence, because Z know how impossible it is that any other patty but the wretched Whigs should continue Loid Anglesey in office—a more un wise and to speak plainly, a more silly politi- I cian was never yet engaged in the misgovern- J meat ol a great country. Z never enquire into ; what ;s called good intentions, intentions never , carried into effect. But suppose I were to i concede io lhe sycophants of Lord Anglesey ’ that his intentions are excellent, it would only ! render his political folly and fatuity the moro ’ glai ing and palpable. Let us, therefore, hope for and expect bet ; tor days lor Ireland. Let us hope for and ex- I pect lhe period when tho popular sentiment will again have its natural effect, and when wretched renegades and unwise calculators will feel ihemselves controuled by the national voice to attend to national in erost. In tho mean time this independent and truly liberal paper—the True Sun— which enables' me to communicate freely with the people of Zrelaml, affords mo the means also of agitating lor that electoial organization which alone re mains as an irresistible inducement to rescue Z.' l-.ud fiom her present state of political dc gredaliotj. Recollect, the leading object of these letters is to keep up the power of ihe Irish people, to select proper representatives, aud to substitute for ihe lenegade, or the “unwise,” those who will think ut nothing beyond the interests of Ire lattd, save the maintenance of lhe eternal, and creed, caste, colour, and nation, on the fuco of the habitable globe. At this period of change, when the great movement is going on, rescuing mankind from ms last remnants ol tho chains long since in- Ihcted on the nations of Europe by tho feudal system, and also scatleiing into thin air tho selfish and sordid pretensions of aristocratic newer—at such a period as this, Ireland ought be represented by men worthy ofihe high destiny to which they are called—mon inca pable of making any compromise with lhe eno mes of ilieir native land, or of deserting ou any pretext the cause of universal freedom. It is for these great purposes that I desire o organize the electors of every county, city, aid town ia Ireland, so as tube prepared for ■very event, and to be able to take advantage H every contingency. 1 have begun witn the county of Dublin.—» 1 pause upon that county; I cannot go bey ond ' unit! 1 find that every possible exertion has oeen made to preserve its repiesentation under ue controul of the Zrish and tiuly national par- in my third letter, I called for assistance from each of five out ol the nine baronies, of winch ihe country is composed. I again re peat my call for aid as to each of those five baronies; and 1 make, as it were, a personal application relative to each of the remaining tour baronies. Who can 1 get to assist mein tiu h.irony of Denote ? Who in Castteknock ? i Who in St. Sepulchre’s ? and who in Coo 'lock? I want to learn the number of electors of each class registered in each of these baronies; the qualification on which such person is regis ' tered, and the political party or personal inter ; est which sways each voter. This is lhe first ! Mep; namely, to ascertain the popular strength : hi each barony, and to contrast it with the Anti Irish Ascendency party in that barony. T’be second step is to ascertain whether any, I and ifi.ny, what addition can be made to tho popular f< rce in each barony. I’licse two are wanted—First, the present state of lltepiupu lar strength, and secondly, the capability of ia< creasing it. Let me Lui be able to ascertain both in each Laruny of the country of Dublin, and 1 will then proceed to another nv.rl another ami another county, until we have all Ireland prepared to return none but t‘ior< tighgoing re fbrmci s of every abuse, and repeaters of that legislative union which has weakened the en tiie empire, and impoverished and degraded unhappy iieland. But although I contino myself in direct ap y.icaiian to Dublin euunty, I do not the !vsi
