„ up nny pert of HI Bat wo bora (bo mocb regard for those gentlemen’* honesty Of purpose, and patriot to attribute to them auch motives, even though wt w the motives of tho»e of equal integrity, who jsur ltd a different course, perverted and vilified. “ Lexington” disclaims for himself and the gentle men with whom he acted, any disposition to dictate mollilieation to the people of Georgia. NoW, we have Limply to reply to this disclaimer, “action* speak loud- [er than words.” What, wo would ask, was the very first principle which actuated them in the outset ofthe affair I Why, to proscribe two of our most distinguish ed and patriotic members to Congress, and by their influence end example, to arouse a spirit of hostility ngainat them throughout the State, because forsooth, •Miry were not as tea art," “wedded to nuUlfcation 1* Is there nothing in this like a disposition—a will, at leaat, without the power, to dictate nullification 1 And fur- ther how is it that every subscriber to this print about Lexington, (with one honored and honorable exception, and that one, we hear, strongly solicited to withdraw,) fits discontinued hit paper, and on the broad grounds, too efoor opposition to "peaeffid’’ nullification 1 One of thoie gentlemen very modestly says, in a letter ad- vhersed to ui requesting the discontinuance of his pi- l*r, “Although I am not no vain as to believe tbit I sta contribute much to the extinguishment of your 'little rush light,’ yet yon may be assured that whit I lack in ability it made up in inclination; you may tbereforn take the will for the deed.” Now, if this doei not evince a disposition to dictate nullification with a vengeance, we know not what dictation moans. « Lexington” saye, “aa a nullifies” he does not feel a weighty obligation testing on him to call a conven tion ofthe Statea, as proscribed by the Constitution, for altering and amending that instrument. No, we presume not, and if wn professed the doctrine, in the Carolina acceptation of tbn term, we could not imagine a course hiving for its object a peaceable and amicable settlement of the question, which, could claim at our binde a weighty obligation. Aa lover* of the Constitu tion, and as consistent politicians, we are compelled to go with Judge Crawford thus tar; not because we have great confidence in its success, but because it will he fillfilling an obligation imperiously demanded by tho 'Constitution itself, before we can consistently adopt a more decided and peremptory course. We fctet* that “Lexington” does Judge Crawford injustice in saying that his object in demanding a Convention of tho Statoe is a “preliminary measure to secession.” We know the Judge’s sentiments on this subject, and tho doc trines he intended to inculcate by bit toast at Milledge- vilte, which we understand to bo simply theses It is our duty to exbaoat aery constitutional expedient first, and then if our wrongs remain nnredreased, wo may with more propriety throw oprsclvrs upon onr original sovereignty, and adopt euch measures of redress as the people in their sovereign capacity, and in their wisdom, may devise; that the convention he would demand of Congress is nit intended as “ a preliminary measure to secession,” but se t constitutional step we ought to take before we resort to “ Lexington’s” favorite meas- ure—“nullification,"accession, revolution, or anything else. Thus far we go with Judge Crawford; but in the mean time we would, in order to facilitate action onthoaubject, adviaea convention ofthe people of the State, to proposo to the other Southern States, who feel themeelree aggrieved, the necessity of mutual ac tion and concert, and of calling together a great Sou- ihom Convention for tho purpoae of adviaing on the “ mode and meaeure of redreas.” “Lexington” informs ue that he ie “wedded to nul lification,” but doea not say how long lie wan wooed before he waa won by the good dame—whether It was after tn interview of one, or one and a half hour, with John C. Calhoun at Washington City, that ho consent, cd to take the loathsome baggage to hie Arms. For ourselves, we do not believe in the doctrine of “ lovo at first sight”—wa distrust all audden love-fits and hasty marriages, fearing lest when mitrimoniil engage ments are thus suddenly entered into, there must be something e!»e beside purs disinterested lots to inteteit tho feelings of the parties—eomething sinister—some- Ihing advantageous, appertaining to wealth or family liistinciion, calculated to dazzle and bewilder the bol ter feelings end susceptibilities of onr nature. We do ;ot pretend to eey that thia was the peculiar kind of nflueuee that drew our ftiend “ Lexington” into Ilia late matrimonial engagement; but somehow or other it looks squally—the courtship w»» evidently very short, ind the spouse not “ the most lovely object beneath the ikies,” and hence we cannot but suspect that in- lucements of tho kind might have been held out by the managing father-in-law, J. C. Calhoun. Terhapa he may have promised “ Lexington,” after he became vei led on the Royal thronsofaRoyal province,tasdowry with this lovely daughter of his, the privilege of wearing hisltnya! livery, as “Master of the Horse,” “Lord Cham brrlain,” or “Groom ofthe Stole." —QQ©— TOU TUB tOUTBCM IXNXBR. Messrs. Editors,—In your pnper of ihe 17lh inst- you reflect with some severity on the citizens of Lexington who aided in getting up the late Oglethorpe meeting. You think strange thet those “ enlightened gentlemen” should have been so long ignorant that Messrs. Forsyth and Wayne voted for the late Tariff act with a prolestando, a fact known to every school boy who reads a newspaper, long be fore that meeting. Nowii.may be well to look at dates, and ascertain whether you may not have been has- ly in yonr censure. The preliminary meeting was held in Lexington on the 21st, when it was determined to invite aa guests, those only of our delegates, who voted against Ihe late lew. Congress adjourned on the 16th, and Mr. Forsyth made his speech on tho 12th or 13th ; his remarks were not publiehed on the a 1st. We do not learn from the City Ga zettes that Judge Wayne addressed the House on the passage of the bill. 1 appeal, gentle men, to your candour, do those gentlemen stand convicted of culpable ignorance, when they assert, that the fact that Messrs. For syth snd Wayne voted with a prolestando, was unknown to them on the 21st ultimo. _ Further, they are clicked by you with a wish to dictate Nullification to Georgia. We deny Ihe accusation, and feel it to be extreme ly unkind. A convention of the good people of the county wee called, to deliberate on our grievances, and to adopt for ourselves, end to recommend to others, wbat might appear to us the proper mode and measure of redress. With a sense of deep accountability, we per formed the duty, and for this we are denoun ced in no measured language. We complain ed it is true, that the bill of 1882, arid all the preceding acts of Cpngress having for their direct object the protection of domestic manu factures, were unjust, unconstitutional and op. passive, and that we would not submit to be filched any longer by our Northern brethren. Our burden is this usurpation of power, not delegated by the Federal Constitution, and, exercised for our oppression—the measure of our redress An abandonment of the system ; we are silent as to the mode of union, except that we resolve to meet our fellow citizens in convention. Where, let ns ask, is any attempt to dictate Nullification ? It is true, that when any sentiment was offered to the company by the speakers or tint guests who gave toasts pointing to that remedy, it wns received with loud and rapturous applause by that large and numerous and highly respectable assemblage. Are the citizens of Lexington, who got up the meeting, to be charged for thia with a wish to dictate Nullification 1 Now, gentlemen, you may prefer submission rather than resistance to the Tariff, others may choose a Southern convention, and a third party secession; Are these necessarily more honest or more intelli gent than others, who believe that Nullifica tion is not only the best, hut Ihe only legal remedy against the evil 1 This I declare be fore God, to be my sincere opinion. Yon come nut as Ihe advocate of Judge Crawford’s project, a National convention and urge its adoption with him as a high con atitutional duty. With great respect for such weighty authority, I construe the clause quo ted, altogether differently- It provides for the call of a convention to propost amendments to tho Constitution, which are to become valid as the supreme law ofthe land, when ratified by the Legislatures of three-fourths of the states or by conventions thereof. This clause contemplates art addition to be Constitution, or a subtraction from it, found necossary by its practical qperalion. But our object is—to amend the Constitution ? No t But to resist the exercise of powers not authorised by it.— And as' a Nvilifur,! confess I do not feel tho weighty obligation resting on me, to call a convention of the states. That it could re lieve us when a majority in Congress will not, no one supposes. And for the South to call a convention, and then refuse to submit to its decisions, might not. appear to the world nor tn posterity altogether proper or honorable. Would we before either of those tribunals ap pear so guiltless for resisting then ns nout t For myself, I think not. Call—not a general but a Southern convention, we could only act constitutionally then through the separate states, and what pray would be gained ? By committees of correspondence in the several states, we could procure unanimity nnd con cert, with aa much certainly and efficiency as by the latter measures. ' Now, gentlemen, for one, I am not rendy to secede; and Judge Crawford only considers the call of a convention as.a preliminary mea sure to secession. I repeal, I am not rendy to secede, until every means has been tried to preserve the Union, short of submission. Nul lification may prove a peaceful remedy, it ran only terminate in Disunion, ft has been tried successfully in many states, by Gov. Troup in 1826, and Gov. pumpkin, in 1831, in this state; perhaps it may not fail in the present instance. If it prove practicable, our Union is not only preserved, but perpetuated. Now, gentlemen, you perceive plainly, that . am wedded to Nullification, but for myself nnd associates, I disclaim the with,much more the effort, to dictate it to others. Perhaps you predicate the nccunation on the second resolution adopted at the Ogle thorpe meeting, the meaning of which, unseen, was entirely misunderstood by the Georgia Journal, namely, that should the General Go vernment attempt by force to coerce into sub mission any elate, which should interpose its sovereignty to arrest the evil complained of, and thereby save the Union—that we should consider her defence essential to our safety. Can any one who is the advocate for resistance withhold his assent to this proposition t The anti-tariff slates are laboring under a common grievance, one adopts one mode of resistance —the others another—each exercising its re served rights; would not policy, a principle of self-defence, common prudence forbid, that Georgia should fold her arms'and quietly per mit Alabama and South Carolina to be subdu- ed, and wait her fate single-handed 1 Many who were prejudiced against this resolution by tho comments of the Journal, have since accorded to it tlieuheaity approbation. None in the aeries of resolutions, was adopted with such vapiuroua applause by the company. Yot have a right, gentlemen, together with „ host of- others, to indulge your hatred of Messrs. Calhoun, McDuffie, Hayne and Ham ilton. They have done much in past years to bring into disrepute Ihe doctrines of ’98, which they ar- now so ably, zealously, and I hope, honestly minntaining and defending.-— But murk me—if South Carolina is subdued by force in her present struggle, by Ihe tacit permission of Iter sister states—Southern wrongs are not only unredreaeed and Southern rights gone forever, but will become irremedia bly the subjects of the most galling despotism that ever cursed our guilty globe. Again, we of Lexington, are arraigned for an attempt, an impotent attempt” if you please, to injure by our proceedings, Messrs. Forsyth and Wayne. We had long supported those gentlemen politically, and stiUJesteemed them personally. But wa could not consider it at tbe lime even delicate to them to solicit their co-operation in resisting a measure— which they had so recently supported by their votes. We scout the idea of persecuting those gentlemen “ to strange citieswe still die- approbate their course, and cannot justify a public officer, who under any conceivable cir cumstances, would vote for a law, violatory of Ihe Constitution—the aactcdnesa. of which, they had sworu to support. Expediency may justify a choice between evils when the Con stitution is silent, not otherwise—neverlbe- FOR Tax SOUTHERN 1SNMSX. As the public mind is at present considers' bly excited, from understanding that it is it contemplation to change the direction of the road lending from Lexington, to Athens, by loaving the old road about two miles from the bridge, and opening it in a N. W. direction, ao as to cross Trail creek, and strike that part of the river opposite the street leading up by Docl. Tinsley’* nnd Capt. Brown’s, to the Presbyteriaa ■ Meeting House, to those who may be in favor of the proposed altera tion, wo would recommend their taking a pn- nition in front ofthe ne*v Chapel, and viewing the hilly and shaving ground through which it must necessarily pass,beginning at the point of woods to tho S. E. and extnnding their view across to thitl part of the river aimed at. We are assured by a gentleman, who has taken the trouble to examine the ground, that inde pendent of a considerable swamp, the ground is very hilly, shelving, and broken, intersected by ravines and gullies, and in several plsres, the rocks so numerous,large nnd shelving, that it is next (o impracticable tn make a level and good road, and that in his opinion, taking into view the additional bridges and causeways necessary to be made, besides other extra la bour, it will require ten times tho labour to construct and mBke the road, and nearly hull as much annually, to keep it in repair, which would bo necessary to keep in repair the road now in use; that in his opinion the distance would rather be lengthened than diminished. Admitting this to be a just representation, we think it important to Ihe inhabitants ofthe district, on whom the individual labour of keeping the road in repnir naturally devolves, and nlso to the citizens of Athens, who would necessarily bo obliged to carry their corn at least half a mile farther every time they might have occasion to go to mill to get meal fur their breakfast. This of itself, would be a se rious injury to the citizens generally, not to speak ofthe unmerited and certainly unlnnked for injury, which must be inflicted on them in dividually,'who are located on the old road leading into town, and by the discontinuance of whichj ’.heir business would ho greatly in jured, if not entirely destroyed. In short, should Ihe proponed alteration be carried into effect, we Would consider it a serious griev ance, alike affecting Ihe intorest of bolhtown and country, as well collectively as individual ly, and in this opinion we feel warranted in assorting at least nine-tenths, if not nineteen- twentieths ofthe population would concur.

August 31—24—4L q/iC PRESENTMENTS Grand Jury of Clark County, August Term, 1832. T HE undersigned Grand Jury for the present Term, tike pleasure in announcing their unqualified ap probation of the correctness with which the county of ficers generally have discharged their duty, from a careful inspection of Ihn Book, and Voucher, laid be fore them. The Jury, however, feel it a duly incumbent upon them, in common with the rest of their follow citixens, to express their regret that the Legislature of the State have abolished the Isle Penitentiary system ; a discussion here of its comparative merits, would not only be impracticable, but as lbs Jury deem altogether unnecessary. Experience, which is the best teacher, seems to have enlisted tn its behalf tn overwhelming majority of the wise snd virtuous in every section ofour country; nndor this impression, and not doubting its su periority is a corrective against crime end breaches of the law generally, they feel no hesitation in embracing the preaent occasion to accord their unanimous deci sion in its favor. The Jury, therefore, do moat earnest ly solicit the representation of the county lo use their best exertions towards its ra-e.ttblishment, upon such principles ts will furnish tn ample guarantee of ita high purposes. It seems that from some cans*, the oversews appoin ted to open the new road loading from Watfctnaville to Athena, failed to locate it on the ground originally con templated. Tho Jury, therefore, recommend to the Inferior court a prompt attention to the subject, end that they adjust that matter in accordance with their first purpose. The Jury would also recommend to the court* to di rect the commissioners of ihe road leading by Simon.
