Would it not he —“ well for them to appoint s day in which they os officers, should visit every lot in Athens, for the purpose of examining ifall is clean, nnd if not to point out such places of ftltn as might bo injurious, in cose that worst of all diseases, the Cholera, should visit us; nod if not remo- ved within a certain time, a fine should be im posed ; to examine particularly into the situa tion of our streets, and see if they are well cleansed also ? Would it not be well besides, to have some “out-of-the-way” house, fitted up, to uso as a hospital for the reception of the poor and others, who may unfortunately need it T Other towns have found great bene fit bv attending to these matters in time, and we should at least profit by their experience. As an evidence of the great benefit of cleanli ness where this disease is raging, I add an ex tract from the New York Com. Advertiser: “ Keep Clean.—A striking benefit of the beneficial effects of cleanliness, in defending against the Cholera, is seen in the removal of the poor from their own filthy and infected residences in town, to the temporary dwellings erected in tho suburbs of the city. Those erections arc upon high ground, clean and airy; nnd although filled with occupants of all ages, sexes, and sizes, taken thither from inferted sections of the city, we have not learned that a single case of the epidemic has occurred among them.” ■l9r VOR THE SOUTHERN BANNER. GREAT UNION MEETING. At a numerous meeting of the cifzens of Hall county, at tho Court house, on the lOih of August 1832, Capt. Nehcminh Garrison, was chosen chairman, and James Law, Esq. Secretary. The object of the meeting having been ex plained by Henry Lightfoot.Sims.tn be the con sideration of the “ mode of redress” against the Tariff laws, ns recommended by the Nul lifies of South Carolina and Georgia; a series of resolutions were then offered, by MuJ. Ro bert Mitchell, who enforced their policy nnd propriety, and exposed the dangerous heresies of Nullification in a lengthy address to the meeting. The resolutions were further advo cated by the Hon. W'llliam H. Underwood, after which tho doctrine of Nullification was avowed by Mr. James W. Jones, who endea- 1 vored to justifv it by mnny argumenls founded upon a minuto detail of the duties imposed upon various articles of import. Other reso lutions differing materially from Mr. Mitch ell’s, were submitted and supported by David C. Neal, Esq.; tho question was thon taken on Mr. Neal’s resolutions and lost; the ques tion then being taken upon the resolutions in troduced by Mr. Mitchell, was with acclama tion carried by an overwhelming majority. IVlierens in all free Governments, it is the privilege of tho people to express their opin ion* on all subjects, at all connected with the welfare of the country : And whereas, there have been many indications of late too plain to be mistaken, of an intention to force the dangerous doctrines of Nullification on the good people of Georgia, under tho plausible pretext of an opposition to the laws of Con gress, usually denominated tho Tariff laws : And whereas, we believo this doctrine, if car- ried’into practical operation, must produce a dissolution of the Government,bring on all the horrors of a civil war, introduce tho confusion of nnarchy and must finally end m despotism 1st. Resolved therefore, That wo are whol ly nnd unconditionally opposed to tho Tariff or protective system, and that we will,as freemen and as patriots,employ all our means and ener gies consistent with the integrity, perpetuity and devotion of our happy* free, and beloved country, to accomplish its abolition. 2d. Resolved, That we are unconditionally opposed to a redress of the grievances under which we labour by thp hazardous and dan gerous remedy of Nullification, and that we consider it neither n peaceful, rightful, or con stitutional remedy. 3d. Resolved, That wo consider the dis semination and establishing the doctrines of Nullification by the enemies of General Jack- son, as covertly to defenkdlis re-election, nnd that we pledge ourselvffS to he the moro zeal ous and active in his support. 4th. Resolved, That our confidence in the Administration of General Jackson, is unim paired, nnd that we yet look to him and his friends for an adjustment of this perplexing question, so as to harmonize with all sections und classes of the country. 5th. Resolved, That a copy of the proeee dings of this meeting, together with the pream ble nnd resolutions, bo signed bv the chair man and secretary,nnd published in the Feder al Union and Georgia Journal, Millrdgcville, the Courier and Constitutionalist, Augusta, the News of Washington, the Telegraph, Ma con, the Democrat, Columbus, and the Gn- zetto and Southern Banner, Athens. NEHEMIAH GARRISON, Chair. JAMES LAW, Secretary. TOR THE SOUTHERN BANNER. ESSAY—NO. I. We propose in a few short essays, to inves tigate, the following subject in u calm and dis passionate manner, viz. The origin and history of the two grand political parties which now divide the citizens .of the United States; the principles they have advocated and still advo cate, with the causes which produced them; and lastly,to point onl, in a few practical obser vations, the legitimate result of a final and per mauent ascendency of either as they now ex ist. Our apology for this attempt, is the criti- ,cal situation of our country in its domestic re lations, nnd the unusual interest with which our governmental operations are now viewed. After the storms of the revolution had blown ovor, and the general peace and quiet which pervaded our Union, and when we had leisure to examine the grounds on which our confed erated government rested for permanency and strength, it was discovered by politicians, that tho then existing form of government Was to a great extent inefficient in answering the ends for which it was formed- A convention was proposed, to revise the old, and, if necessary, to draft a new constitution, to be recommended for adoption to the Slates. The convention met, and on entering upon the performance of their duties, it was found that different men entertained different opinions upon the char acter which the constitution should bpar. Two parties appeared, both respectable for their number and intelligence, and each advocating opposite principles. Both had the appearance ofsincerityand honesty in their views, nnd both consequently manifested considerable anxiety to have the “ new constitution ’ accor ding to the tenor of their particular principles. The party which it is our design to notice more particularly in this essay, is that which we denominate National Republicans, or Fed eralists. The principles they avowed in rela tion to the form of the constitution, were en tirely opposite to those entertained by their opponents; they contendpd that in order to have a government permanent in its character, and respectable for its power; not liable to be overthrown by invasions from without, nr in testine commotions within, for want of unity of action or strength in its administration to con centrate its forces, tha> the new constitution must be so framed, as to invest tho General Government with such power over the States, ns would virtually amount to a consolidation. In fact, a large number of the same party, as the journals of the convention will show, were much moro disposed to adopt a constitu tion, authorising limited monarchy at once, ihan one which would only exert a few speci. fted and enumerated powers in a languid man ner over the Stales. Their opponents in this convention, we have said, entertained views decidedly incompatible with those just expres sed They were for surrenderingjust so much power on the part of tho States, and no more, as would servo to make the new constitution answer those ends for which the old one had been by experience found inefficient. They looked with a jealous eye upon every act of the convention which hud the slightest appearance of an enrrnnchmeut on the original sovereign ty of tho States; every measure that was pro posed underwent the strictest scrutiny, to as certain its intimate and remote bearings upon the liberties of that people, over whom its good or evil effects would one day he exerted. And here we will digress so far as to make this query : Is it at all compatible with reason to suppose, that the parly which contended for the principles of limitations of power in tho government, would knowingly suffer any arti cle or uny section of tho constitution to pass them, so loose in the expression of its object, as hereafter to authorise the same powers by implication, which they had refused to grant specially ? The answer of most Americans to this question, might bn attributed to party prejudice; but if a foreigner were made ac quainted with the origination of our constitu tion, arid its subsequent political history, and wero called on to answer it according to the generally received principles ot human logic, hi* would assuredly answer in the negative.— But to return. The new constitution came forth from the convention, a decided political offspring of the Democratic Republicans, and was sent to the Legislatures of the different States for sanction nnd adoption. Tim contest in the ronvenlion was fraught with that spirit of personal asper sion and recritniuutinn, which has since char acterized the two parties. Let us endeavor to look for the cause of the violent discord which has since sprung up between the two pnrties. When the constitution was framed and adopted, the contest for tim ascendancy of principle was considered over by tho Dem ocrats, and they confidently looked forward to thi peaceful enjoyment of those fruits which they expected it to produce. But the exer tions of the opposition did not stop here. The elevation of John \dams, one of their leaders, to the Presidential Chair, brought them again in the field, when it was observed that they still had the same object in view, still entertained the same sentiments, and sought to introduce the name principles which had heretofore char acterized their political course, into tho opera tions of government. The passage of the Alien and Sedition Laws, produced a violent commotion iliroug out the Union, as an un warranted and unconstitutional stretch of pow er. This produced n violent conical in 1800 in which the particular features of each party assumed a most uneq livocal distinction. This resulted m the elevation to tho Chair of the Chief Magistracy, one of the brightest orna ments of trim Republicanism, Thomas Jeffer son. The principles which he avowed and practised, and which still stand engraven on the hearts of all true friends to their country, are those alone by which our government can be brought back to its origiual purity and strength; for all admit that it was during his administration, was shown in right and hold relief, as rules of action, tho true principles by which the government was originally framed and organized. From the known integrity of ht< political character, and his acknowledged talents, his parly confidently looked for the attainment of those ends, for which the politi cal revolution that brought him into office, had been brought about. Nor were they mistaken. It wa» obvious to all, that under the preceding administration, the government had widely de parted from the cbaraclei which in its forma tion it was intended to maintain. It was the high prerogative of Jefferson to reclaim it from its erratic, wanderings, and set forth its funda mental principles in their most impressive form ; and again there was a prospect of poli tical peace io the operations of the General Government. But that we have since a sec ond time wandeied far from tho true standard, is obvious to all. Let ua inquire what have been the causes of it. In the administration of Mr. Jefferson’s im mediate successors, the aberrations from that standard became gradually more and more ex tensive. Apologies, however, may be found for this, in the particular situation of our coun try in regard to’its foreign relations. YVe were suddenly surruunded by dangers—great exertions had to be made to provide means to meet great exigencies ; and in the zeal with which the governmental aim was slrciched forth <br the protection of our national rights, the rights of the Slides were to some extent infringed, or at leaBt not gjarded with sufficient vigilance. This affordec a lit opportunity for the innovations of a pover, which lias since far outgrown tho most sanguino wishes of its adherents or the fears o' its opponents. YVe allude to that power by which tho constitution has been taken up, as a mere conventional as semblage of words, without any literal stan dard moaning, and so distorted hy sophistry and intrigue us to be made the prostituted in strument to answer tut unlmllowcd purposes of designing partizans , and what party was it that introduced this syitem into the operations of government ? Let the political history of the government tell; and lie that will take the trouble to inform himself, will find, that the same party which in the convention of 1787, contended for a constitution, giving the go vernment an extent of power incompatible with tho sovereignty of the states, now sought to obtain by this system of intrigue, what u fair contest had deprived them of. It is frequently thrown up to Anli-Construc- tionists, that the ablest men that our country has produced, have recognized it as a rea sonable and equitable mannor of arriving at the full meaning of the constitution. Let us take an instance. The expression “ general welfare,” is by this system held to extend to the Internal Improvement of the country, to duties on imports for the protection .of domes tic manufacture, &c. By the same power the terms “ general welfare” is held to mean tho good or benefit of the majority, and that the majority should govern, is one of the funda mental rules of government. Now suppose that those who are ni>i>u««d to this system were to quietly fold thoir lianas —av ouch article of each section of our constitu tion, to be subjected to the influence of unlim ited construction; what would be the result ? But we are anticipating what we intend to be the subject of a future essay. Ills almost unnecessary to go further, in endeavoring to developc tho continual objects which the Na tional Republicans have hud in view; suffice it to say, that they have ever been actuated by the same political principles, ns well in thoir aspirations and intrigues for office, as in thoir official administrations. But they would not deserra the reprobation of their opponents to such an extent, had these principles been al ways worn on their front ; had they shown a disposition to combat their adversaries in a fair and honorable maimer, then at least they might have been considered sincere in their opinions. Let no one think from this re mark thut we are so prejudiced in our views, as willingly to do palpable injustice to the principles we reprehend. If we make any as sertion, or draw any inference which hns not fuct for its foundation, wo would takn correc tion as a friendly act, but let facts speak for themselves. The Tariff act of 1824, was passed without much or very strong opposition,comparatively speaking. Though the consistent advocates of Free Trade and State Rights never recogni zed it as a constitutional measure, they were willing to a certain extent, to admit its expedi ency. Like the Tariff of 1816, its ostensible object was the extinguishment of the public debt, nnd was predicated upon the authority contained in the constitution, “ for the purpo ses of raising revenue ;” the latent and ro- moto object for which the system was origin ally gotten up, in some measure began to dis play itsell in 1824, viz: for the protection and en couragement of domestic manufacture. It was soon found however, that the times und opin ions of tho peoplo were too unpropitious for a permanent political fraud to be imposed upon them in all its native deformity; and it was consequently continued to bo held up as a na tional means to rolievo (he government from its fiscal embarrassment. It was reservod far the master spirits of this party in 1828. to bring to maturity a system, which like the torpid reptile hud been warmed and nourished in tho bosom of a free republic., and now sprang forth a finished political monster, to least upon the liberties of n free pooplc, and auUvort the principle* end gap she foundations of a free government. YY’hat similarity or con sistency is there in the arguments of the Tn- riffites of 1824, and those of the present day ? Can any one of them read without blushing with shame in the Journals and debates of Con gress, where this system,once begged as a boon, is now claimed as a right ? ' If ever the liber ties of this people should he destroyed, hy a departure into tyranny nnd despotism, what drivelling idiots will our oppressed offspring think us so cruelly and wantonly abusing the political nnd social blessings which heaven by the wisdom and gallantry of thoir fathers,gave them as a national legacy! Wo have thus far endeavored to sketch the political history of one of the leading parlies which now divide the United States; the outline may be feeble, hut it is true, and any one that will take the trou ble to investigate tho political history of our country minutely, will be convinced that the party which opposed the new constitution in 1787, on the grounds ofits limited power, arn identically tho same, influenced by the same view*, and governed b» the same principles, with that party, which cf late yesrs, have sue- cessfully endeavored to palm upon their coun try, a monopolizing National Bank,an illiberal system of Internal Improvement, and an op. pressive and unjust Tariff. If this be true, and true it is, if truth is not construed to mean something other than formerly, with what conscientiousness can that party (aunt theif countrymen, who, writhing under oppression, are seeking for the means of redress, and that in the home way, in which they did under the embargo and non intercourse act, with a want of love to their country! I With what consis tency can they exclaim against Southern free men, remonstrating against nn unjust system, as “ insurrectionists” and “ rebels.” MARCELLUS. ®fte SSJotlSf fw a jLttteSftcll.

PROPOSALS For Publishing in Monfoe, Walton County, Georgia, a Religious Newspaper, to be entitled the Southern Baptist Register. BY JAMES W.

The publisher deems this a.sufficient apology . for tbo prospectus he now offers. As its title inrlicites, thn Register is designed parti cularly to disseminate facts in relation to the Baptist denomination; to trace its history, to recount its trials, and give intelligence of its success; yet in doing s.>, it will present nothing to which the Chiistlsn of any de nomination whatever, can object. Its aim will be to encourage virtue, piomote piety, end uphold the doc trine and preempts of our holy religion. To thoee ob jects a large portion of the paper will be devoted; yet to moke it acceptable to families generally,and answer the purposes of ordinary newspapers, it will regularly fur nish a synapsis of passing events, without interfering in party or political strife. With this very brief exposition of his design, tbe Pub lisher submits it to thn public, trusting with confidence to their decision upon Ills cliims for pslronsge end sups' port. TERMS.
