Who, retired, when the Convention
was addiessed by Mr. Cowart of Chero
kee.
The committee of 39 having return
ed, through their Chairman, James
Gardner, Jr., submitted the following
REPORT:
The Committee to whom ivas con
fided the duty of reporting resolutions
f„r the consideration of this Conveirtion,
beg leave to recommend the, following
adopted by the National Democratic
Convention, as embodying the creed and
the sentiments of the Democracy of
Georgia:
Resolved, That the Americnn Dem
nevacy place their trust in the intelli
gence, the patriotism and the discrimi
nating justice of the American people.
Reunit ed, That we regard this as a
distinctive feature of our political creed,
which we are proud to maintain before
the world as the great moral element in
n foim of government springing from
and upheld by the popular will; and
we contrast it with tlio creed and prac
tice of Federalism, under whatever name
or form which seeks to p ilsy the will of
die constitution, and which conceives no
imposture too monstrous for the popu
lar credulity.
Resolved, therefore, That entertaining
these views, the Democratic party of
ihis Union, through their Delegages,
assembled in a general convention,
mining together in a spirit of concord,
of devotion to the doctrines and faith of
free representative government, and ap
pealing to their fellow-citizens for the
rectitude of their intentions, renew and
reassert he foie the American people, the
the declarations of principles avowed by
them when on former occasions in gen
eral convention, they have presented
their candidates for the popular suffra
ges.
]. That the Federal Government is
one of limited powers, derived solely
from the Constitution ; anil the grants of
powers made ought to be strictly con
structed by all thedepart meats and agents
of the Government; and that it is inox
pe.lient and dangerous to exercise doubt-
lul constitutional powers.
2. That the Convention does not con-
for upon the General Government the
power to commence and carry on a gen
ii system of internal improvements.
3. That the Constitution does not con
fer authority upon the Federal Govern
ment, directly *o indirectly, to assume
the debts of the several States contract
ed for local’and internal improvements,
nr other State purposes; nor would such
an assumption be just or expud ent.
4. That justice and sound policy for-
hid the Federal Government to foster
one In -inch of industry to live detriment
of any oilier, or to cherish the interests
of one portion to the injury of another
|>nitioii of our c.vnmnn country '; that
every citizen, and every section of the
country hast-, right to demand and insist
upon an equality of rights and privile
ges, and to complete and ample protec
tion of persons and property from domes
tic violence or foreign aggression.
5 That it is the duty of every branch
<>f Government to enforce and practice
I'm most riuid economy in conducting
our public affairs, and tiiat no more rev
enue ought to be raised than is required
to defmy the necessary expenses of tbe
Govi-i inncnt, at.d for the graduul but cer
tain extinction of the public debt.
G. That Congress lias no power to
charter a National Bank; that we be
lieve such an institution one of deadly
hostility to the best interests of the coun
try, dangerous to our republican institu
tions and the iibeilies of the people, and
calculated to place the business of the
country within the control of a concen
trated money power, and above the law's
anil the will of the people ; and that the
results oi Democratic legislation in this
ami all other financial measures upon
which issues have been made between
the two political parties of the country,
have demonstrated to candid and practi
cal men of all parties, their soundness,
safety, and utility in all business pur
suits. '
7. That the separation of the monies
of the Government from banking institu
tions is indispensable for the safety of the
iunds of the Government and the rights
of the people.
8. That the liberal principles emhnd
ied by Jefferson in the declaration of In
dependence, and sanctioned in the Con
stitution, which ..takes ours the land of
liberty, and .the asylum of the oppressed
of every nation, have ever been cardinal
principles it» tbe Democratic faith, and
every attempt to abridge the privilege of
becoming citizens and the owners of soil
among us, ought to-be resisted with the
same spiik which swept tbe alien and
sedition law* from our statute books.
9. That Congress has no power under
the Constitution to interfere with or con
trol the dumealHr institutions of tho sev
eral S ates, and that such States are the
sole and proper judge of everything ap-„
pertaining to their own' affairs, hot pro
hibited by tbe. Constitutiou ; that all ef
forts of theabotkinuists and others made
to induce Cougress to hiterfere with ques
|ions of slavery, or to take incipient steps
>» relation thereto,are calculated to lead
to the most alarming.atid dangerous con
sequences; and that ali such efforts have'
on inevitable tendency to dimnish the
happiness 0 f trie people, and endanger
the stability and permanency of the
njotfeand ought not to be cuuntonanc-
tiom 3 our pulitieal instilu-
,^ e,< doed, That the foregoing protife
ions covers, and was ’ intended to em
brace the whole subject of slavery agita
tion in Congress and-therefore, the Dem
ocratic party of the Union, standing on
latform, will abide by and
adhere ttf&jRfilhiut execution ot the acts
known as Mfe compromise measures, set
tled by the last Congress: “the act for
reclaiming fugitives from service or la
bor,’ included : which act being design
ed to carry out an express provision «f
tho Constitution, cannot with fidelity
thereto, be repealed, or so changed as to
destroy or impair its efficiency.
Resolved, That the Democratic party
will resist all attempts at renewing, in
Congress or out of it, the agitation of the
slavery question under whatever shape
or color the attempt may he made.
Resolved, That the proceeds of the
public lands ought to he sacredly applied
to the national objects specified in the
Public meeting.
. Pursuant to previous notice, a meeting
of a portion of the citizens of Richmond
county, favorable to the administration of
President Pierce, was held at the City
Hall in Augusta, on Tuesday evening
the 7th inst., at 8 o’clock.
On motion Dr. J. M. Hill was called
to the Chair, and Robert A. "Whyte, re
quested to act as Secretary.
On motion the following gentlemen
were selected by the meeting as dele
gates to the Gubernatorial Convention, to
be held in Milledgeville, on the 3d
Wednesday in'June, viz : James Gard
ner, Jr. Wm, R. McLaws, Dr. J. M.Hill,
and Robert Phillips.
On motion, the following gentlemen
were selected as delegates to a Conven
tion, to be held at some future day, at a
place to be agreed upon, for the purpose
Mwywi WL......_
overwhelming rebuke does tins echo
Constitution; and that we aie opposed of nominating a candidate for Represen-
to any taw for the distribution of such
proceeds among the States, as alike in
expedient it. policy and repugnant to the
Constitution. » -»
Resolved That we are decidedly op
posed to taking from the President the
qualified veto power, by which he is ena
bled, under restrictions and responsibili
ties amply sufficient to guard the public
interest, to suspend the passage of a bill
whose merits cannot secure the approval
of two-thirds of the Senate and House of
Representatives until the judgment of
the people can be obtained tnereon, and
which has saved the American people
from the corrupt and tyrannical domina
tion of the Bank of tiie United Slates,
and from a corrupting system of general
improvements.
Resulred, That the Democratic party
will faithfully abide by, and uphold the
principles laid down in the Kentucky
ami Virginia resolutions of 179S, ami in
the report of Mr. Madison to the Virgin
ia Legislature in 1799 ; that it adopts
those principles as constituting one of
talive to Congress from ;he Sth Congress
ional District, viz : James M. Smytbe,
Samuel M. Thompson, E. D. Robertson,
and John Phinizy, Jr.
Ou motion, t was Resolved, That the
delegates to both Conventions, have pow
er to fill any vacancies that may occur
in their respective delegations.
The following preamble and resolu
tions were theu introduced by John Phin-
izy, Jr., and unanimously adopted:
Whereas, Jacob R. Davis lias been re
cently removed from the office of Super
intendent of the Branch Mint at Dalilon-
ega, in this Slate, as we learn upon
charges impugning his moral standing,
and whereas this meeting is satisfied by
the highest evidence and proof, that those
charges are false and unfounded, there
fore,
Resolved, That this meeting holds Ja
cob R. Davis to be perfectly exonerated
from all the imputations contained iu
those charges.
Rcsolccdfurthcr, That without express
ing any preference as to the appointment

obvious meaning and import. I opinion, that as a man and a citizen, Mr.

est southern wbigs who are now .seeking
again to kindle the fires of agitation by
falsely charging the President with giv

ism have been so intimate and so recent
that their garments are scaecely yet clear
