Gentlemen,—Entirety concurring with the Editors of he Southern Banner in their view of Nullification, I will iank them to continue to lend me their paper, directed o St. Augustine. ROBERT RAYMOND REID. The Voiceqf Georgia.—We rejoice to find public sen timent throughout the Stale, settling down decidedly against tbo revolutionary principles of Calhoun and Cooper, lately attempted to bo introduced into Georgia. Wo regret that the limit* of our paper prevent us from keeping paea with the numerous public meetings which have been held, and through which these opin ions have been expressed. Richmond,Chatham, Jones, Baldwin, Hall, Walton and Morgan, apeak in a voice that cannot be mistaken—they have completely “an nihilated” Calhounism—“knocked” Nullification “ in to nothing” without “ leaving a grease epot to tell that it had been." The freemen of those counties sre firm and decided in their opposition to the“unrigbleousTariff," yet willing, with Mr. Jefferson, to wait *• the returning justice of the General Gnvarnment," rather than in volve the country in all the horrors of anarchy and revolution. The proceedings of the Morgan meeting have been received; but owing to the columns of our paper devo ted <o communications being pre-occupied, we ere compelled to lay them over to next week. They op* pace Nullification—recommend a Southern Conven tion-urge the necessity of re-electing Jackson to the Presidency—approve the nomination of Van Boren, and applaud Messrs. Forsyth end Wayne's totem the late EM reducing the TariJ. Electoral Ticket.—We publish to-day, the Ttoup tick, et for Electors of Preeident and Vice Preeident. We are not disposed, however, to pledge ourselves to sup port the whole of it until it can be satisfactorily ascer tained, wlist are the sentiments of several of the indi viduals on the ticket We bold, that no man who professes the doctrine of Nullification can coniiateutly support Andrew Jackson, end if we are not greelly mis taken, one of the gentlemen on this ticket has the pre monitory symptoms, end another is in the blue ot col lapsed stage of the disease. We therefore feel it a doty we owe to ourselves, end to our subscribers and patrons, to call upon those gen t'enten (who form the Troup electoral ticket,) to come out with their present views with regard to the Presi dential election. The re-election of Andrew Jackson is of too much importance to the people of Georgia, for them to risk a single vote to chance or uncertainly. We also call upon them to know who they will sup port for Vice President—the regularly nominated can. didate, or one got up.to injure and trammel the present Administration. Mr. Barbour we have before shown cannot be elected; It is therefore playing into the hand* of the Clay party to support him ; and we now ask these gentlemen—are you for John Scboiant or Mshtin Van Boren ? the “ Cherokee Attorney," or a friend ofUnion and the South ? One of the two must be elected—which will you vote for J The Athens Meeting.—We feel ourselves called upon by du y as well aa by inclination, o correct some mis. takes which have gone abroad with regard to this meet ing. Some of our friends, particularly at a distance, seem to be somewhat surprised at finding the venera ble name of Wm. II. Crawford, attached aa chairman to the resolutions which emanated from it. Mr. Pem berton was right in stating some time since, that bis opponents got the start in appointing anti-nullifiers as presiding officers to the meeting. Indeed, at the time tho Hon. William II. Crawford was called to the chair, and Mr. Hull appointed secretary, it was little expected by any one that, before its close, the meeting would assume the character that it did. And si presi ding officers, those gentlemen could not do less, how ever repugnant to their feelings it may have been, than to sign the proceedings of tbs meeting. Wo fir.d in the late proceedings of some of our sister counties, on the subject of tbo Tariff; the meeting at this place at Commencement, ia called the Clark Coun ty Meeting; and it* results set down is declaratory of tho feelings and sentiments of thepeople ofthis county, Now, lor the better information of such, we declare that the p,ople of Clark county hid nothing to do with the meeting—either in getting it up or in its delibcra tions; and consequently are irresponsible for its re sults. The meeting was called by gentlemen from a distanco, who were here in attendance on tire Com mencement, and conducted almost exclusively by them. We are not disposed to quarrel with tho resolutions which passed this meeting—we have before expressed our acquiescence in the course they prescribe, viz the call of a convention, because we are confident if it proves practicable,the results of the convention will he very different from what is yo anxioasly anticipated by tho Nulliliers. The amendment proposed by Gen. Glasscock, disapproving of the doctrine of Nullifies, tion, and which was lost, would have shared a very different fate if the people of Clark county had been sit ting in judgment over it. Jefferson vs. Calhounism.—When the small band of diaorganixera in South Carolina, with Cooper and Cal houn at their head, firat determined in their own minds to make tho excitement at the South, growing out of tho Tariff laws, a ground work on which to build their future operations, having for their object a division of the States of this great confederacy, they very saga ciously discovered that to come out openly and ac knowledge their true object, viz: Revolution, the pa triotism of the people—their natural love of country, would at once revolt at 'he idea, and the plana of the disorgamzers sink forever beneath the frowns of their just resentment. Hence we find that those artful dema gogues disguissd their real object; and behind the •pecious garb of peace and constitutionality, urged upon the people the doctrine of Nullification. And for the purpose of adding additional weight to the cause, claim ed for it the sanction of Virginia, and the great and popular name of Thomte Jefferson. They laboured herd to prove to the people that Nullification was not only a peaceful and constitutional remedy, but, that as such, Jefferson, who was the author of the Kentucky reso uliona of *98, hid originated tho doctrine, and that Madison and the Virginia Legislature had sanctioned the same, in the celebrated resolutions declaring the alien and sedition laws unconstitutional. This was the Mtehiavelian policy determined on (and with but too mnch success) to hoodwink, blind, and delude the artless and unthinking, but naturally patriotic and high minded people nf South Carolina. Now, whether Mr. Jefferson was, or was not, the author of that portion of the Kentucky resolutions, wherein as a last alternative, Nullification is recom mended as the rightful remedy, is still a disputed point. But, for the sake of argument, we will admit that he was—that Thomas Jefferson did acknowledge the right of a Stato to Nullify an unconstitutional act of Congress. Our pext enquiry then ia, what did Mr. J. mean by Nullification as used in that instrument? Did be intend to recommend it to the States as a con stitutional measure—as a peaceful mode of redress, when their rights were infringed by the General Go vernment ? Or did he simply alluda to it as the “right ful remedy” in the last resort, the right ofRcvululion I We have not the least doubt in the world but that Mr. Jefferson viewed it only in this light, for if he (relieved it to be both a constitutional and peaceful remedy, why did he not, instead of being satisfied simply with the declaration of tho right, recommend Kentucky and Virginia to act on it at once } They both declared the alien and aedition laws to be unconstitutional, and they were both under the influence of Mr. Jefferson. If then, he believed it to be a peaceful and constitu tional remedy for the evils under which they were la bouring, why did he not say to those State*—go on et once—Nullify and all will be well I But instead of ad vising this course, we find pervading the whole of those les-lutions (claimed by the Nnllifieri aaa teat book) a very different spirit indeed, viz: forbearance and a full and perfect confidence “ in the good sense of the people of the United Slates, and in the returning jus tice of the General Government.” Mr. Jeffereon claimed for Kentucky, it is true, the right to Nullify an act of the General Government, palpably an infringement of the Constitution of the U. Sltlee. But it wet an alternative ho evidently locked opon in the seme light as that of revolution—a right we all acknowledge ae belonging naturally to tho people of every Government under the son—bat • right which should only be acted upon under the most hopeless and gloomy circumstances; bringing in its train, aa it at. ways doe*, the triple horror* of “ war, pestilence and famine.” That this was the only legitimate meaning Mr. Jef ferson intended to attached to the wotd Nullification, as used by him in the Kentucky resolutions, we have in drawing the above conclusion, at least to outaelves, most satisfactorily proven. But iuorder to strengthen this conclusion, and to make it as dear os the sun at noon tide, we will appeal to Mr. Jefferson himself.— And who, we would sak, is so'well calculated to inter pret Mr. Jefferson’o meaning as Mr. Jefferson himself? In his letter to W. C. Nichols, Sept. 1799, spesking of wbat the Virginia resolutions should contain, ho ssys “Ezpressingin affectionate tnd conciliatory language our warm attachment to union with our aiater States, and to the inatrumeni and principles bv which we ere united; that we are willing to sacrifice to this every thing but the rights of self-government in those impor tant points which we have never yielded, and in wliirh alone we see liberty, safety and happiness; that net at all disposed to make every measure of error or of wrong, a cause of scission, we arc willing to look on with indulgence, and to wait with patience till those passions and delusions shall have passed toer, which the federal government have artfully eacited to cover its own abuses and con- eeal it* designs, fully confident that the good sense of the American people, and their attachment to those very rights which we sre now vindicating will, before it shall be too Iste, rtliy with us round the true princi ples of our federal conpnet. This was only meant In give a general idea of the complezion and topics of such an instrument. Mr. M„ who came, as hid been proposed, does not concur in tho reservation proposed above; and from thia I recede readily, not only in def erence to hia judgment, but because aa we ahoidd ne ver think of separation but for repealed and enormous vio lations, io these, when they occur, will be cause enough of themselves.” Again, in 1895, in his letter to Mr. Giles, he says on theeame subject, viz: the encroachments of the Gene ral Government on the rights of the States— “If every infraction of a compact of so many parties is to be resisted at once, as a dissolution tfil, none can ever be formed which would last one year, • e must have pa- l ienee and longer endurancethereu ill) with our brethren while under delusion; give them time for reflection end nzperience of consequences; keep ourselves in a situation to profit by the chapter of accidents; and ■eparate from our companions only when I he sole alter natives left, are tho dissolution nf our Union with them, or submission to a government without limitation of powers. Between thesetwo evils,when we must make a choice, there can be no hesitation. But, in the mean while, the states should be watchful to note every, ma terial usurpation on their rights; to denounce them as they occur In the most peremptory terms; to protest against them as wrongs to which our present submission shall be considered, not as acknowledgements or precedents of right, but at a temporary yielding to Iks lesesrevil, until their ac cumulation shall overweigh that qf separation.” Is this the language of modern Nullification? Or is it the language of the Union men of the present day ? But again, in the draft he prepared of a protest from the Virginia Legislature, in Dec. 1895,he saya: “ And as a further pledge nf the sincere end cordial attachment of this Commonwealth to the union ol the whole, so far aa has been consented to by the compact called ‘ The Constitution of the United States of Amer ica,’ (construed according to the plain and ordinary meaning ofita language, to the common intendment, of tho time, and of those who framed it;) to give tlso to all pariiee and authorities,time for reflection and for consid eration,whether,undcra temperate view of the possible eonsrquencet, and especially of the constant obstruc tions which an equivocal majority must ever expect to meet,they will still prefer the assumption of this pot> er rather tbsn its acceptance from the free * ill of their con- slituenls; and to preserve peace in the meanw hile, we proceed to make it the duty of citizens, until the legis lature shall otherwise and ultimately decide, to acqui esce under those acta of the federal branch of our gov ernment which we have declared lobe usurpation* and against which, in point of right, we do protest as null, void, and never to be quoted as precedents of right. “ We therefore do enact, and be it enacted by the Geueral Assembly of Virginia, that all citizens of thia Commonwealth, and persona and authorities within the same, shall pay full obedience at all timet to the sets which may be passed by the Congress of the Uni ted States, the object of which shall be the construction of post roads, making canals of navigation, and main taining the same in any part of the United Sates, in like manner a* if the said acta were, lotidcm verbis, passed by the legislature of this Commonwealth.” Now, ifMr. Jefferson believed Nullification to be * peaceful and eonstilulimut mode of redreas for grievances of this kind, in the name of Heaven why did he throughout hia whole life urge upon the people such arguments as these? It is clear from the above ez tracts from the pen of Mr. Jefferson himself, that he never would have resorted to Nullification, or Ri-volu lion, whilst hia confidence remained unshaken “in the good sense of the American people,” or in “theirat. tichments to constitutional rights.” With regard to the Virginia resolutions penned by Mr. Madieon, in 1798, so far from their containing even tho setnblanc- of Nullification, throughout the whole of them the doc trines inculcated are diametrically oppoeed to it, amt fully sanction* end maintain* the principles of thr Union party nf the present day. They pronounce the alien and sedition laws unconstitutional—and what then ? Recommend Nullification aa the rightful reme dy ? No, no, thoy simply remonstrate against tho*.- laws, end recommend Ihs other stales Us do the same, in order to nullify and make them void by uniting against them \ht font and strength of public opinion; which, ulti mately, proved to be the “rightful” and successful remedy; for in a very short timo those odious enact ments were repeated by Congress. So far then, from Mr. Jefferson, or Virginia, ever hsving sanctioned the doctrine of Nullification as now professed at the South, their true sentiments are scouted by the new light pa triots of modern times as pusillanimous—end of course their authors, lefferson and Mtdison, are branded by them as fouuders of the modern school of Submission mm.

When the examination of sny class was finished, the visitors immediately retired into a separate room, end agreed upmi their report, regularly until their task yvtts ended. “Studio fnllunte laborem.” ^-i/ The visitors take pleasure in semiring the public, thst they can unanimously and con- nrieolinuuly recommend the University of Georgia as an eligible Seminary for the educa tion of youth, both ns it respects the character and talents of the Professors, and the morals of the students. Thu Professors are all able and pious men. One third of tho students have made a profession of religion, and arc said both by tho citizens and the whole faculty, to behave ss liecometh the profession they have made. -More thon two thirds of tho young gentlemen who graduated this season, were professors of religion, and the hnrmonv which exists among the professors of college, who be long to diflprent sects, seems generally to pervade the people, which adds murh to the happiness of tho whole.—Savannah Georgian Great Union Meeting.—The meeting which took place yesterday wns pronounced by many competent judges to havo been one of tho ,lnr- gust ever seen here. The long room of the Exchange was literally jammed, mid wo have no doubt that ifthe room had been larger, many more would havo been present. Never, in nny community, was there exhibited a greater unanimity of feeling than hy this meeting.— “Cnrolinn'e conservative specific, Nullifica tion,” wns utterly prostrated. But one solitary voice was raised in favor of Carolina Nullifica tion, and the gentlemnn .who raised it, at the end of the meeting, offered a resolution in fa vour of the re-olection of General Jackson! When Judge Wayne rose to address the mee ting, he was saluted withenthusiactic applause. During the whole course of his remarks he wns listened to with the utmost attention, ex cept when he wns interrupted, as lie often was, by the plaudits of the audience. On taking his seat, the meeting spontaneously gave three cheers, and the room rung with the loud apro- bation of his hearers. His speech wus an ublo vindication of his course in Congress, and his constituents in Chatham havo rendered to him, (what we hope hia constituents in other parts of the State will do,) the awnrd, " well done, thou good and faithful servant.” Onr lime and limits do not, at present, permit n detailed account of the sentiments expressed by the speakers. We shall in our next give the substance of the spocchos delivered. When the question was put upon the final passngo of the Resolutions, there were but four dissenting voices and two of those enme from n couple of boys p.rrhed up in tho music gallery. Nolli ficntion I “ Farewell, a long farewell to all thv greatness I” in Chatham county.—Savannah Georgian, Black Hawk Defeated.—A Bnltlo wns fought on the afternoon of August 2, with the troops under Gen.
