Committers were appointed in conformity to notice of veslnrdny. On motion of Mr. Iteming, Resolved, Thai the joint standing Commit tee, on the Penitentiary, be instructed and re quired to enquire into ihe reasons why, and .tint be il further Resolved, Tli it Ins exci 1- the policy of granting Ihe Convicts the privi- ncling as a member of the State Convention, l lenov tlm Governor bo requested to Iraiieimt a I lego of working for themselves, and trafficking and that in an nddresg to the people nf Burke, j eopv of this preamble and resolution, to each [ and trading with the citizens who visit that In- I expressed the opinion, that a Southern fon- (of ihe Senulor* and llepresenlahvrs of tlii lature of Georgia, and certainly cannot be foord in the resolution referred to. I believe Inisy now safely leave this part of the subject. The filth resolnlioo asserts the right of a tilale to deride upon infraction of ihn f'nnsti lion, and this the Legislature of Georgia have rrpejiiedlv uffiiini d.hul il no where asserts the right of* Stale Ui nullify a law, and practical ly to enforce this derision upon her co-Slates. by remaining in the Union, and refusing obe dience to such law, until! Ihe requisite number of States shall concur in a new and substan tive grant of the power to enact such a law — ail'd this is Nullification. Mr. Crawford’s second charge is, that I have advocated n southern Conven'ion. w liil Senate anil House of Representatives of Ihe Stair of Georgia in general assembly met, Thai the Congress of the United States might, at its present session,to propose to the Slates an amendment of the Constitution, having lor its object the lasting settlement of ihe diiigorous controversy between the d-fT renl sections of the Union, which has grown out ol the protec tive Tnnffpolicy pni»ued by the Federal Gov ernment, and also having lor its furlher object the express protection of ibu people of the U. States, against Ihe assumption by Congress of the power to pursue such a policy, or any policy n adoring the burthens of l.ixaiion un equal on ihe different sections of the. country, • rd S: ■ the purpose of being laid befi.ru their I • ventinn was unconstitutional, unless it was Stale in the Congress oft! consultative and recommendatory only, in | and also the Governors of U which case, it might he harmless from ns im becility. Now, what I desire lo have under- : lature stood in the first place is, that the Southern Convention recommended bv the Convention et Milledgeville, is nicely “ consultative and recommendatory." The Resolutions propose that the measures recommended by the South ern Convention, should be first Nuhm'tted to the Slate Convention, nnd if adopted bv them, should he finally referred lo the people of the Stato of Georgia, for their approval or r< jee- tien. The proposed Southern Convention was, therefore, to he slrieily n congullnlirr bo dy, and was consequently not obnoxious lo Ml® charge of being unconstitutional, upon Ihe principles laid down in the address to the pro- |„ IVt , n ||,'j g Genera pie of Burke. The first part of this charge of'" inconsistency, is then disposed of. The se cond admits of an answer, which is equally plain. - Mr. Crawfmd will agree, that nlher opin ions, ns well ns those which are individual, must be understood with reference In the sub ject matter under disrussion. The question, at the time of the meeting in llerke, «vns be tween a State and a Southern Conven'ion. atif'itimi—the reasons why some Convicts arc Unicd Slates—| dressed in citizen’s clothes, wearing watches I believed, that in ease of nn irifr c'inn of the Constitution, the people of a S:ate could only aft legilmslely in a Convention of the Stale. since that was the power, by which the Con stitution was ratified : until that power was called into existence, I ihought it was merely useless to send Delegates to a Southern Con- vcfction, since all legitimate action must lie bad in a Convention ofthe Slate. If a South ern Convention hod hem called before the Slate Contention tras organized, I should therefore have considered it useless, because of its imbecility—but tin- did not prevent me from believing il lo lie useful ns a meins of concentrating ihe news ofine anii-lnrifT and ns auxiliary to a S'nt" Convention already organized, and competent to net upon us re- eommenda iun-, if they w ere approved bv ib” latter, and bv the people. The error id tl-i- accusnlion arises fiom n wnul of aiteuiiou to time nnd circumstances. When the question was. whether wo should have a Stale nr u Southern Convention, I l.elievu thnt the latter alone, if nrjamzqd for action, would lie uo -ou stitutional. and if fi>r consultation merely inm’il unaided hr a Slate Convention, lie imlienli and useless; I thought it was first „r •;.r to j ,|. r ..j for G’oinn.il'ee of Ilia whole, orgumze the latter; nnd that it was the pro.)

Tins patriotic Slain will, wc hnvo no doubt, act ut ihe present juiicnne of af fairs, worthy of ihnl msgninimily whiidi distinguished her councils and her actions, in “ tho tunes that tried men's souls.” She will now step forward in hchnlf nf the Constitution and Union, nod save them, ns she did tho Constitution and Slate Rights, in '08, when strug gling for Iheir very existence. She will interpose her mediatorial offices between die two factions which have brought the Government lo the very brink of ruin. Iter rights ns a Slate are dear to her—su are the rights ofthe General Government, nnd ihe glory of the Union. She is e(|i!ally opposed to the tariifnnd to the reckless, liend. long measures adopted hy Simlh-Carnlina f>r its remo- vol. She wi’l relmkt the wave of revolutionary mad- ness on tho one hand, and stay the hillows of federal oppression on the other—she will pour nil on the dieting elements, and the »'orm which new threatens almost inevitable shipwr. i It to'hr Indy ark ofuur liber ties, must eutmido at her bidding. U'c look to tier now ob the only remaining hope. On the wisdom, moderation and energy of llie course she may adopt, depends the salvation of nnr liberties. Should she, however, fail in her magnanimous efforts—should her counsels be rejected by her sisler Slates—her warnings pass by them unheeded—then, indeed, will we " despair of the Republic 1” and when llie “star spangled ban- ner” shall cease to wave o'er tlm United Republics id America, we will renounce forever u sentiment, Ihe must cherished of our hearts, viz. tho ability ofthe peo ple to govern themselves. —Q/J}— The Proof.—\V'e have repeatedly charged llie leaders of the Nullification party iu South Carolina with cor rupt and a nhiiitms views—with a design to subvert llie Government nf ilus great nnd prosperous eounlry, and out nf its rums to form a State, nr Stales, over which they might rule and tyrannize at pleasure. Do not Ihe course they have pursued since they have acquired the power,prove this beyond the shsddow of a doubt ? The peopleofthnl Stale were gulled by them into the be lief that their oppressions were worse than colonial bondage, and lliat they were fixed and iinmoveubls.— By such artifices they aroused the sensitive people of Carolina to the point desired, and they were then told that a Convention of Ihe Stale would, if called, relieve them of u!l their burl hens anti oppressions—that lids Convention would act in strict conformity with the Coiu stitutioa of the State and of the United States; and what has been the ic?u!t 1 11 has trampled undei ils un- us you clothed them with power? why, with th* will and the power ol worse than an Eastern despo- tism, riveting on the minority of freemen in your own State, who dare to oppose their unholy designs, the chains of slavery—depriving them of the right* of cop. science hy test oaths, thereby depriving (bent of citi- zenship—and degrading them below the very negro wluv bows at your feet! J IVith the Constitution, liberty and equal right* on their tongues, they have gained your confidence—it h*« been the song of the Siren, and chanted for yonrdee. traction! Woke up, people of Carolina! descendants of .Marion, of Rutledge, of the Pinckneys, ol Laorens ol Moultrie and of Sumter, arouse to a true sense of •he awful situation to which you have been brought by those III whom you have misplaced your confidence— ami shake them from yon as the waking lion would the toil* of hia enslavers. — The Opposition.—Notwithstanding the voice of near, ly Ihe whole country, from Maine to Louisiana, have spoken so decidedly in favor ofthe leading meaairetof the present Administration—by sustaining its present venerable and patriotic head, Gen. Jackson—vet we find in the leading prints of the opposition, indications or a disposition still to continue their rancorous and futilo efforts to obstruct, if they cannot entirely destroy, llie harmony and success of iis measures. The orgsn of Mr. Calhouo, the United Slates’ Tclegroph, has si. ready raised llio b’oody flag, and under ths protecting ■ Egis of the United Slates’ Bank, hr.s sworn etsrni] emnily.ay, “war to the knife,” against the new Ad- ministration; w hilst llio Swiss hireling of the same institution, J. Unison Webb, of tho Enquirer, hasrsi- scil tlie tomahawk and scalping knife in behalf of the Cherokee Indians ; and rcsolvcj lo wield them to the In st of his endcavois against tho happiness and pros- petiiy of the Umird Slates. These favorite and patri- Otic schemes of ihe Administration, vix: the desiruc. lien of that corrupt, dangerous and unconstitutional establishment, the U. States’ Bank, and the satisfacto ry settlement of tiic Indian question—are,it is evident In he made the chief rallying points of the opposition. I'hcy eoiu lode dint Ihe monied influence of the Bank together with wtial may he obtained by exciting ths religious prejudices ofthe people on the subjects ofthe Indian and Missionary questions.wlien brought to bear by a united effort of the whole coalition press against die views of die present Cabinet, must and will dis- tract Ilieir councils, nnd perchance bring the Adminis tration into disrepute before die expiration of theensu- ing four years. It is evideut,ton, that die unhappy po. sition assumed by South Carolina against the General eminent, is to he made a fruitful eourceof cnibar- rubsnwnl to the President. Dn/TUrccn is to continue to be thu uncompromising advocate of Nullification on the one hand, and Wibb, on the other, whilst professing hostility to the doctihie, is to give it indirectly c nntenanev and protection; and to bo in readiness to rui*c the hue and cry agcinsl any course the President may adopt for the purpose of meeting the crisis it j* about to produce in the history of our Government. And it i» evident that those cor rupt hirelings ol a base and unprincipled coalition—a coalition manufactured irom ihe odds and ends of all the broken down factions which have existed from the formation of th -Government to the present day urc determined if possible to precipitate “ the crisis” on the head ol (jcnur^l Jackson, for the unholy purpose of involving his administration in inextricable difficulties • hoping thereby to procure his distraction, though at the imminent peril of the Union, glory, and happiness of this gt\ u‘ Republic. In proof of this we have only to refer to Webb’s paper a few weeks since, wherein he hypocritically averts that the doctrine of Nullification had not been treated with the liberality it deserved by the Northern presses, ami volunteers his columns for toe promulybtioM of a doctrine which ho has ever de- nouiicua as trtav/niible lo the government! The oppo sition have calculated strongly, and still calculate (notwithstanding tien. Jackson’s moderation tints far, on the subject of the Carolina difficulties,) on hi* adopt ing a rccklers and violent course of policy on the sub ject—one well calculated to enlist the sympathies of the people in In-r betm!f, und to fix upon tue President tlmt odium, which they have been so long and so un successfully Lb..ring to attach to his name—the char acter of a military tyrant and ambitious despot, lie will, liowevfr, disappoint them in those v. ual hopes and expectations, lie will act throughout “the crisis,’* come when or in what idmne it may, with hn wonted mildness, ioibcarar.ee, wisdom and firmness. Vet there is no hope that his course, iu any cvcut, will receive the least favor or support from his factious opponents’ Should his measures l e correct, rnild, forbearing, firm and dignified towards our deluded fellow citizens of Carolina, ho w ill be accused of a want of energy,or perchance of countenancing the vicyvs of the nullificrs ; •dionld they prove to he strong and energetic, he will receive Ilieir n not human, and “Tyrant!” “Military Despot!” &c. will resound fur and wide throughout the land. Whatever ho does, however, we have no fears hut that it yvill be done regardless of their praise or censure—in strict conformity with that Constitution v.'hicli lie has sworn to support and preserve inviolate, and fo the honor and glory of limt Union yvhicb he has declared “MUST BF. PRRSERVF.D.” The above w as prepared for our paper of last week, previous to the receipt of the Pit sidcnl’s proclamation, and crowded out by that document. We now wait anxiously a Hevelopementof the course the opposition ut tlie Nor:h w ill pursue in regard to this movement of the President Our predictions are more than verified in the course of the opposition at the South. The Presi dent has been denounced in South Carolina at a Ty rant, Traitor, Tory, Dolt, Demagogue and Despot, for telling tlie disorganizes iu that State, in the most mild and conciliatory w ay, that he was bound by hisoatb of office and by the Constitution, to tee that the Uwaof the United Stairs were enforced!! --OC©— If’Ao are Resistance Men ?—There if a ccitain claf# of our fellow citizens, who profess to see no difference between the opponents ofthe South Carolina doctrine, and the quiet submisriontsts to the tarifflawa; nwn whose obliquity of vision will not allow them to draw a direct and tangible line between these two extreme* —and it is from such as these that we hate often heard the question asked with the most grave self compla cency, “ Who are resistance men 7” We concei*® there is nn difficulty in answering to simple » question; but, in thus gratifying those who ask It, wc must pre mise, that there are at least two kinds of reactance— one is that which mat urea its plan** und weighs it* clotures of success; the o her is that which rush**
