At a meeting of the citizens, of Morgan Cnuntv, ronvened in the Court House, pursu ant to previous notice, the annexed Prenmblo und Resolutions, as reported by Dr J >hn Wingfield, of the Committee appointed for the purpose, were read and adopted: Whereas since 1816, a majority of the Con gress nf the United States, reckless of the ties which bind us together as a confederacy, have been pursuing a system of legislation the most unequal, and therefore the most unjust: And whereas the efforts of our delegation to stay Federal encroachments, and tiring lb Government bark to a strict construction nf the Constitution, although partially successful, as sho'vn in the late Bill of reduction, have noi by any raenns answered the expectations of the suffering South And whereas, the people, of the South, have no guaranty, that the duties now impo sed by tho tariff laws will not bo increased un til the amount to a prohibition: And whereas, no modification in the amount of our taxes, so long ns the protective princi ple, is adhered to, will reconcile us to die system: Therefore, Resolved, That wo the freemen of Morgan in Cnunty Meeting assembled, respond to the wishes of our fellow-citizen- of Athens, in part, that is, we recommend electing delegates, on the 1st Monday in Oc tober next, to the r.ontcmlplated convention, which may ussemb'e at Milledgeville on the 2d Monday in November thereafter, but at he same time require the acts of the convert- ion to be returned back to the people of Cacti ounty lor their ratification or rejection, hefnro the State shall ho committed to any project whatever. Resolved, That although “ we are determin ed never to suffer an invasion of our political Constitution, however minute the instnneo may appear, to pass by, without a determined, persevering resir,tnnee vet, as a matter of expediency, we feel constrained to indicate our decided preference, as a mode of action, for a convention of such Slates, as posed to the Protective System, on the ground of,ts unconslitutioniilily. Col. James C. Terrell expressed himself as de> j cidedly opposed to the Protective Tariff Sys tem, and also as opposed to the doctrine of Nul lification—Capt Wm. Hammond opposed the Resolutions, in regard to the Tnriir, thinking them too favorable, und also contended, that the question should be delayed to some other day. But saidthat he was not a Nullifier—Samuel Shannon Esq. reir.arkedthathe wasdecidedly op posed to Nullification, hut thought that all action upon the subject should be postponed till some subsequent dav. The question was, however, finally taken upon the adoption of the Preamble and Resolutions, and carried by a large majori ty. The candidates for the Legislature were then called upon, and every one of them, to wit: Doct. H., Freeman, A. E. Whitten, Esq. Col. Ash, Col. Patrick, P. R. Jones, Esq. Maj. John K. Stanford, (repeated his opposition,) Joseph Yates, Esq., Reuben Mitchell, Esq. severally expressed themselves unreservedly in opposi tion to Nullification. The people of Franklin County having con vened, for the purpose of taking into considera tion tho necessity of reducing the number of members in the State Legislature; and having gone through the avowed purpose of their as semblage ; and having always cherished a strong and ardent attachment for our Republican form of government, and our free institutions, and being taught to believe that tbo prosperity and continuance of these, depend mainly upon tho Union of the States; that a government which has excited the admiration, and has deservedly won the respect of tho civilized world, demand from the hands of every freeman, no ordinary exertions to preserve it entire, and in its origi nal and constitutional purity—that the cost of tho Union of these States, was the blood of thousands, its value the happiness of millions.— Wc cannot be insensible to the fact, that a crisis is fast approaching, which may shake it to its very foundation—a crisis fraught with impor tance to the destinies, not only of this country, but to tho causo of freedom throughout the world. The downful of this government, the destruction of this Union, will animate the wan ing spirit of despotism, and chill with a death- damp, tho proud spirit of freedom’s votaries, in other parts cf tho Globe, who have hitherto been guided by independent America, as their “ cloud by day,” and their “pilW of fire by night.” The evils that would result from a dissolution of this Union, cannot bo enumerated—Let tho mutch bo once applied, und the explosion effect- nre op-1 e( l, when, when, could wo hope to collect togeth- cround er scattered fragments. We beseech our | countrymen earnestly, seriously to reflect, and uo therefore, earnestly desire his success in the approaching Presidential contest.

JACKSON COUNTY MEETING. In conformity with a resolution of a prelimi nary meeting, a large and respectable number themselves the shadow of virtue, and thereby mislead the honest rind unwary. Some discussion arose upon the introduction of Mr. Matthews’Resolutions, the question was soon called for and taken, upon agreeing to the substitute, which was lost, by an overwhelming majority. Tho preamble and resolutions re ported by tho Committee, was then taken up by sections, and passed almost unanimously. The third and fifth resolutions passed without a dis senting voice. Ordered, that tho proceedings of the meeting be signed by the Chairman, and countersigned by the Secretary, and be published in tho public of the citizens of Jackson County, assembled Gazettes of Athens and Milledgeville. Resolved That wo are unqualifiedly opposed deliberate upon the miseries that such an event to the doctrine of Nullification, believing it to' would entail upon us, and we invoke tho spirit at Jefferson, on Friday, the 7th September, to decide upon the election of delegates to a State Convention, to ho held in Milledgeville, on the 2d Monday in November next, for the purpose of taking into consideration, the best means of riding ourselves, in common with all the South,' of the existing protecting Tariff. Joseph Hamp ton, Esq. was called to the Chair, and Giles Mitchell, Esq, vas appointed Secretary. Wil liam E. Jones, F.sq. introduced the following preamble and resolutions, prepared by a Com mittee appointed for that purpose, and support ed them, by a lengthy and interesting speech, against the constitutonality and expediency of the Tariff. The citizens of Jackson County, in common with their fcilow-citizcm of the other sections of the State, have Ions felt the oppressive ope ration of the laws of the Congress of the United States, usually denominated the TarifT laws; and have borne its unequal burthens, with the more patience, in anticipation of the approach of that period, when the national debt should bo extinguished, confidently hoping that anterior to that event, the Tariff would be modified by Congress, so as to reduce thi revenue, to the actual wants of the Government; and, in such modification, tho interests of agriculture and commerce would receive equal justice, with the long-cherished interests of the manufacturers, But, in this, our reasonable expectations have been disappointed. For, although flic modified Tariff, passed at the late session of Congress, has very considerably reduced the amount of revenue, and the duties on somo articles which are considered common necessaries of life, and, upon the whale, lightened our burthens, yet the modification has been digested upon the princi ples of the former Tarifi, and is to us equally or more objectionable, because more unequal, -ind therefore moreun just. More unequal for,although the South will pay less tax than they did, under the Tariff oft 82S—yet, they will pay a larger proportion of the aggregate amount of the re venue, than they did, under the Tariff of that year. Believing that the present, as well as the repealed Tariff, is unauthorised hy the plain construction, and true intent and meaning of the Co’dilution; that it is unjust, unequal, oppres sive, and in its operations, destructive to tho a- gricultuiing and commercial interests of the South, and fearing that those whose interests tho law was intended to subserve, and whose influence now preponderates in the national councils, will be disposed to continue this une qual and unjust system of taxation upon us for ever. Resolved, That a final and endless submis sion, on our part, to the unconstitutional', unjust, unequal, and oppressive system of taxation im posed upon us, liy tho protective or Tnriff poli cy, would ho a base surrender of a portion of our liberties and constitutional rights, and a sa- On motion, the meriting adjourned- JOSEPH HAMPTON, Chairman.

Among other things, they complain that we »ey “no nullifier can consistently support Gen. Jackson and that they will (till support him at Messrs. Forsyth amt Wayno did the late hill reducing the Tariff, “ at the lesser of two evils."

The Resolutions were submitted for ndop- lion, separately, lo the meeting. The first passed unanimously nnd without debate; the adoption of the second wits opposed in a speech of some length, by Lucius L. AVittich, Esq. and advocated by Charier Campbell, Kugenius A, Nisbet, and M. B. Lamar, Esq. but was finally odonted with but one dissenting voice; when the 3d resolution was read, Col. Wm. Porter submitted the following as a substitute: Resolved, Thnt we are unqualifiedly opposed to the dortrine of submission, believing it to be slavish and degrading in it** character, anil in its results will lead to the entire subjugntion of the South, and the destruction of the Indepen dence of the States. After considerable debate, in which the ndnption ofibe substitute was ad- vocated by .Weekly J. Peannan nnd Robert Pearman, F.sqrs. and opposed by Doct. John Wingfield, and Eugenius A. Nisbet and Lucius L. Wittich, Esqrs. the substitute was with drawn, when Col. Porter moved to e'riko out ings ot inspiration tions. If wo know onrsclvcs, all minor consid erations, arc, on this occasion, entirely lost in tho deepest solicitudo for tho institutions, the peace, and the happiness of our country. And that our opinions may be known, at a time when ninny of our most distinguished citizens, and public servants, are industriously attempting to disseminate among the people of Georgia, the dangerous heresies of a sister State, and arc us ing their talents and influence, to raise a party for the avowed object of opposing the laws of tho Union: Resolved, That we believe the Tariff Laws of tho United States, to bo unjust and, unequal irt their operation upon tho country, inexpedient for its “ general welfare,” and particularly op pressive on tho Southern States, but that we view tile recent modification, os a concession to the just demands of the people of tho South, and as a disposition in Congress, gradually to abandon tho whole system. Resolved, That we will use every effort, and resort tu all proper means, -to free ourselves from the anticipated evils of tho Tariff, but that “ we think they have been exaggerated, and that some ot the remedies proposed, are mat;e dele terious than the Tariffitself.” Resolved, That we view the doctrine af Nul lification, as delusive in theory, and dangerous in practice, and as directly leading to civil war and disunion. , Resolved, That a State Convention, as re commended by tho Athens meeting, “ with full power to maintain, preserve, and defend the rights and privileges of the free citizens of this State, is clothed with powers too broad and un restrained, and at a time of great excitement, like the present, inexpedient and exceedingly dangerous.” Resolved, That, should w'o deem it necessa- to elect delegates to the proposed Convention, we will, at some future day, do so, expressly instructing them to oppose any measures con templating rash or violent apposition to tho laws of the Union, and “ we shall protest against the authority of any acts of that Convention, which are not duly ratified by the people in their re spective counties.” Resolved, That our faith and confidence in the wisdom, firmness, and integrity of Andrew lackson, being unshaken, and believing his re- election to the Presidency absolutely necessary, and required in the present State of affairs, we crifico of our interests, to which wo never can consent. Resolved, That our devotion to the Union and veneration for the Constitution, are not sur passed by the citizens of any other section of tho confederacy; nnd that, having stood by the former “ through evil report, as well as through good,” we avow ourselves to be willing to abide by the latter, if administered in its purity and virtue, down to the end of time. Resolved, That wc will appoint delegates to the State Convention, to he held at Millcdge- ville, on the 2d Monday in November next, nnd that David Witt, W'illiam Pentecost, John Pnrk, und John G. Pittman, be appointed delegates to represent Jackson county, in snid Convention Resolved, That our delegates to snid Con vention, bo, nnd they uro hereby instructed to use their endeavours to procure the call of a Convention of all the States opposed to the pro tective policy, at as early a period ns possible: nnd that they bo further instructed to abstain from a resort to direct nnd forcible opposition to the Tarifi’; but to lenvo the same to the wis dom, prudence, nnd discretion of tho U. States. Resolved, That we entertain an undiminislicd confidence in the integrity, patriotism, end firm ness of Gen. Jackson, and that we arc without division of sentiment or feeling, unanimously in liivor of his re-election to the Presidency. Allen Matthews, Esq. ottered the following as a substitute. A meeting nf tho citizens of Jackson county, having been called, for the purpose of advising on tho inode of resisting the Tariff, have, this day taken the subject under consideration, and offer the fallowing, os tho result af their delibcr-i ations: C3* Removal--CD The Offire of ih* Southern Itanner in removed to the Now Building on the Corner, North of Messrs.

A large and rc spectable meeting was held on tho 3d and 4ll» inst. in Burke County—Messrs. Berrien, Forsyth and Wayne, each addressed tho mooting—of course, very sidy and eloquently—Berrien, strange ns it may seem, denied that nullification tons the rightful remedy, or the constitu- tinnality of a Southern Convention, nnd recommended a State Convention. Tho meeting approved of a State Convention, hut that ita proceedings be returned to the people for their adoption—recommended tho re-elec tion of Gen. Jutkaon, and opposed almost unanimous ly the dot trine of nullitiention. A gre.it Union Meeting was held in Liberty county, on the 1st inst. The resol itions adopted urtanimously hy this meeting declare nullification to be unennstitu tional and of course rcvt-lutionary—appiove the vote of Messrs.

Wc believe the present Tariff to be unjust, j that the nets ot said convention be returned ts the unwise, and oppressive, because it has a tun- people for their consideration dency to tramel free trade and intercourse with mankind, and therefore deprives us of a portion of our natural liberty, which is not necessary for the maintenance of the balance. We hold that the people of this, or any other country, have a rightto shake off’the bonds of government, when they become too heavy to be bum", but they should first look well to the sub ject, and see clearly that their condition would be bettered by the change. Resolved, therefore, That it is inexpedient, at the present time, for the people to resist the Ta riff, (except in the manner heretofore used,) or to adopt any measure, which would have a ten dency, directly or indirectly, to dissolve the Un ion. Resolved, Thnt we believe many of our good citizens, who differ in opinion with us, on this subject, act under excited feelings, and there fore, are in judgment with honest hears, and we fear that some designing, dishonest, and vicious politicians, while acting in their vice, assume to —— iCP-lVc find by the August* papers that Mesars.
