Twenty counties devoted to the cause of Union, had refused even to be represented in Ihe Convention—and on the other hand, all those who were inclined lo Iho unhappy doe* trine of nullification, whether under ita own or nny other name, hnd engerly pressed to have Deli-cntes in that body. The originators of the project, who woro present ns members of ihe Convention, exercised, ns it appeared to us, a great, if not n decisive influence with tho majority. Utterly disapproving their past movement in relation lo the subject, nnd justly apprehensive of their purposes for the future — under such auspices, nnd in a body so consti tuted, we should hnvo held it both criminal nnd absurd, gratuitously to sanction hy our co-operation, counsels which we could nol but believe must prove pernicious in (heir tenden cy. The result has not disappointed our ex* pcclnlimt. 'ihe resolutions adopted hy the remnant of tho Convention—both of those which relnte to their doctrines and their pro* jerts, receive our d cidnt condemnation.— The constitutional principles which they an nounce, are suited in a manner which, howev er designed, is al least fitted to snduco the onwury into tho doctrine of nullification.— Whether this he not tho fact, wc shall for Ihe present content ourselves with submitting lo tho unsophisticated intelligence of the public. The phm of a Southern Convention on exhibi ted m these Hcsoliilmris, appears to us, tho very worst tlint could Ituve been possibly de vised.

I'he Stale of Georgia invite, the Smtes ol Virginia, North Carolina, Souili-Car- lina, Alabama, Tennessee and Mississippi, 10 concur with her in electing Delegates to a Convention which shall take into considers lion, the Tariff System of the Gencrnl Gov ernment, nnd devise and recommend ihe most effectual and proper mode of obtaining robot from the evils of that system. Art. 2. She proposes that each invited Slate shall send lo the Convention a number ol Delegates equal to the number of Senators nnd Representatives lo which such Suite is etc titled in tho Congress of the United Stntes. A't. 3. The Convention shall nol take place unless five Stales of the six, which it is proposed to invite, assent to (he proposal Art. 4. The time and place of assembling the proposed Convention, shall he arranged and determined by correspondence among those who shall he duly authorized by the Stales as seiilmg to .Ins plan .'Irt. P. The Governor of this State is na limrized and desired to communicate the invt taiinii nod proposals contained in the four pre ceding articles, to the Governors of Ihe other Mates ahovo mentioned, with a request they be made known to tho people of those States respectively. He is ulso authorized and desi- rod to arrange hy correspondence, tho time and place of assembling the proposed Conven tion, conformably to the provision of the fourth rttcle Art. 6. When the lime and place f"r the meeting of said Convention nrn determined, the Governor of tins Stnte is authorized and desired to issue his proclamation, with timely notice, lor an election of eleven dele gates by general ticket, to represent tire stale in said Cniivenlion, Ihe election to be regula ted by tiie same principles as those which govern the elections of members of Congress. 11 is ulso desired and expected, that die Legis lature of this Siam, will make such provision as mnv be ncressury, for carrying more com pletely and readily into effect the above plan, if it should be adnptcd ns proposed. Art. 7. if the Delegates assembled in a Southern Convention, according io the above plan, should agree ott a course oi proceeding which they recommend to the Stales represen ted,^ Governor of this Slate is authorized and desired to issue a proclamation, with timely nut <ce for nn election of delegates to s Stole Convention declaring tho time and place at which i< .hall assemble. Such Convention shall consist of Delegates from every rounty, equal in number to that of its members, in the Howe of Representatives of this Stale ; and the elections of said delegates .hall be regu lated by the same principles nnd authenticated hy the same form, a* election, for members of the general Assembly. To the State Conven tion thus elected, the recommendations of the Southern Convention shall be soloni'led and duty of the dificrcnt functionaries of the State Government, to afford all necessary aid in facilitating its execution. Resolved, That wc earnestly advise our fel low-citizens not to give their votes on the Reso lutions of the Convention recently adjourned, ns therein proposed. Tlmt Convention mani festly consisted of Delegates from n minority of the people ; yet they submit their acts for rati fication to the whole people, aceording to n form contrived by themselves, through the agency of persons appointed hy themselves, while they themselves remain final judges of the ratification proposed. To sanction such n procedure would open a door for (lie grossest imposition, would establish an nlarming precedent for usur ping the rights of the iiinjorily, and might ulti- tnatelv expose us to all tho horrors of discord and anarchy. Resolved, That while we would provide a corrective tor the possible continuance of thoso evils of which we have so much reason to com plain; we still hope that the regular operations of the General Government, will supersede tho necessity ofuny extraordinary measures on tho part of the Southern People: and tlmt wo recog nize the happiest augury of better tilings, iri tho growing certainty of the re-election of tlmt illus trious patriot Andrew Jackson.

ADDRESS Of (i Committee of the Delegates who seceded from the Convention recently assembled at Alilleelgeville ; Fellow Citizens op Georgia,—We huvo been appointed lo make an exposition of tho motives and views of those Delegate., who separated themselves from tho recent meet ing at Milludgevillo, styled a Convention.— Circumstances prevent the complete perform ance of that duty at the present moment. But, for the purpose of counteracting misrepresen tations that already begin lo pervade the com munity, it is deemed advisable immediately lo present a summary statement, which may here after, if necessary, be more folly developed. The general grounds on which we acted, have been concisely exhibited in our Protest. The Convention invited by tho Resolutions at Athens, whs a Convention of Delegates of the People of Georgia In such an assemtily al me, we were authorised lo act for our con stituents. We mn«t firmly believe, that all the Delegate, together convened at Millcdgeville, were far front representing a majority of the If I People of Georgia * We demanded that the the same areapproved by the Siam Convention, authority of llio.e who presented themselves they shall then be referred to the people for fi- as Delegates, should bo regularly scrutinized. siainig of G4 Delegates, propose, to submit their acts for ratification to tho whole people, seems to us the very quintessence of usurpa tion. If they are to try so vitul a question in their own form, by their own agents, and lo bu themselves the final judges of the decision, wlmt is lltere which a miitoriiy may not as sume I The people most be weary of oxerci- sing their own sovereignly, if they can permit such an appropriation of it by individuals. The seceding Delegates express but uno sentiment ronccrtung the Tariff—that it is un wise, unjust, and unconstitutional. Several of them entertained the private opinion, that it wns not advisable at this moment, to taka any extraordinary steps m relation to the subject ; lint the whole wero disposed lo lay fairly be- foro iho People, tho project of a Southern Convention, embracing nil or six of the South ern Stales which urn opposed lo the Tariff.— In such an nssocialiou if dulv sanctioned, we saw the best guarantee of knlutary counsels, nnd of strongih to render them texpectable.—• Thu plan contained in tho Resolution, sub- milted to the House of Representatives on tho 20ih inst. is substantially that which we would have recommended- From Ilia disposition at present manifested by Ihe members of the General Assembly, we trust that these Reso lutions will he adopted, and that the people rallying around their ” unquestionable repre sentatives,” will promptly and decidedly re ject the scheme proposed hy the remnant ol the Convention—a scheme, which if acted on, would involve Ihe State in immediate diacord, nod expose it lo ulterior evils of incalculable miignittldo, WM.
