Hutunlay Morning# Nor’r IT* 1800.
Frotn tho Rome Southerner.
Meeting of the Citlscns of Floyd
County.
Below wo publish tho resolutions and
preamble, paused at tho citizens’ meet*
ing held in Rome, on Monday, tho 12th
Inst.
Tho attendance wiw largo and very
general from all parts of tho oounty.—.
Wo believe ovory district in tho county
was represented. Wo noVcr sa\t resolu
tions pass more unanimously or more
enthusiastically. To aomo of the reso
lutions thore was ono or two dissenting
voices. Most of them however, passed
unanimously. Wo worn sorry to see,
oven a singlo person, in that largo as
sembly, who withheld hfj assent* If
tlieic ever was a tlmo when tho people
of tho South should bo united, now i»
the time. If the Southern Stntos ns
one man, or even ono or two of them,
wlU show unanimity of sentimont, in
opposition to Blank Republican rule,
and oven if they withdraw Bom the Un
ion as tlie last alternative, no gun of
coercion will ever bo fired by any power
upon the face of # tho oartli. Horace
Grooly has i!ready said in hi* paper,
tho N. Y. Tribune, that if aw*/ of tho
Southern States leave tho Union by a
vole of her people, ho is in favor of let
ting her alone 1 Yet Greeley believes
strongly in a central powor, and tho
right of coereion. War is not child's
play! and if wo shown determination
to have our rights, pven at tho point of
the bayonet and the mouth of the can
non, Black Republicans will reserve
their powdor and artillery for other
foe*, and wo will be allowed to depart
in ponce. There is no sort of doubt
about Oils!
Dr. Franklin, tho greatest statesman
this country ever produced, said that
the British Ministry told him, that the
crankings of tlioso in tho Colonies, who
woro against revolution and a separa
tion from tho Mather country, lo-id
them (the Ministry) to believe that
there was only a handful of revolution-
'Ms in America under the h-.d
assassin And arobbor, to tho rank ora
hero and a mnrtyt'; has sont forth, far
and wide# over our section of tho Union
vile emissaries to instignto the slaves
destroy our property, burn our
towns, devastato our country# and
spread distrust, dismay and death by
voison, among our people; has disrupt*
the churches, and destroyed all na
tional parties, and has now fully organ
ised a party oonfined to a hostile section,
and composed oven thoro of those only
who have oncourngpd, sympathised
lib, instigated or perpetrated this
long series of insults, outrage and
wrongs, for tho avowed purpose of
making a common government, armed
us with power only for our protec
tion, an instrument, in the bauds of
of enemies for our distruotion.
Therefore, wo, % portion of tho peo-
pjo of Floyd county, regardless pf all
past difference*, and looking above and
beyond all mere party ends, to tho
good of our nativo South, do lieicby
publish and declare:
1st. That Georgia is, and of right to
i, a free, sovereign aud independent
States.
2nd. That she enmo into tho Union
with the other States, us u sovereignty,
and by virtue of that sovereignty, has
tlie right to seenle whenover, in her sov
ereign capacity, she shall judge such
step necessary.
3d. That in our opinion, sho ought
not to submit to the inauguration of
Abraliam Lincoln and Huuibal Hamlin,
her Provident and Vico President;
but should leave them to rule over
those by whom alone they wero elcct-
bo,

In'r«*is no doubt about this. And ill
•ry same is truo of uh.
Tim Black Hcpublicuns suy that all
attempts at revolution in the South will
ho put down by tho ''conservetiers'' in
our midst. And f that wo will bo
obliged to submit. Now what is it we
luivo to submit to? Well wn will state
thing f«»r tho information of
■consorvativo” frioiuls,
•Sonin one twked in n-Ncrthrm l
paper aome weeks ago, how thcspirUof
in tolerance was to ho put down that
ha* jjway in tho South $ nml it muat i>o
rctmunbored that tho Altolitionists call
•uh intolerant benmise wo will not allow
their incendiaries to preach their infa
mous doctrines with impunity to our
slaves and others. Horace Greoley an.
Wored tho question in his “THbun
newspaper: Says Greeley, the way to
put a stop to that spirit of intolerance,
is to eloot Lincoln. Then, said ho, free
ipeeoh, free expression of opinion, will
Ik* guaranteed to every citizen of tho
United States everywhere. That is,
Abolition orator • r inoondhtry, takai
it into his fanatical brain to oonio to
Romo and make n speech to our slaves
amjl loll thom, as Old John Brown did,
to cut our throats or poison us, iw may
bo most convenient, Mr. Lincoln is
sustain him thus in tho expression
his sentimonts, as a guarantee of free
dom at speech l
Grooly is Lincoln's right lmml man
Ho did more than any other i>orson
secure his nomination. Besides all that
Greeley is one of tho most cautious anti
sagacious politicians in America. Ho
never speaks hastily or unadvisedly.—>
Taking altlhcso things into considera
tion, Georgians, what do you think
Mr. Grecloy’b declaration ?
Every man in tho land, old and young
groat and small,, riuh and poor is intor-
estod in this question. Think ot‘
Aud if you can’t go with your section,
for Heaven’s sake, and for tho snko
your country don’t go against iti
Whereas, tho nbolition sentiment
tho Northern States, first openly man
ifostod in 1820, has, lor tho last forty
years, steadily and rapidly increased
volume, and in intonsity of hostility
to tho form of society, existing in the
Southern States, and to tho right
tlieso States as equal, independent, and
sovereign members of the Union; has
led to long continued and ever
orensing abuse and hatred of the South
ern people; to coasless war upon their
plainest Constitutional right)
open and shameless nullification
that provision of tho Constitution
tended to securod tho rendition of
gitivo slaves, and of tho laws of Con
gress to give it effect; has led many
our people who sought to avail them
selves.of their rights under tlieso pro
visions of tlie laws nml the Constitu
tion, to ei.counter lines imprisonment
and (loath ; lias prompted tho. armed
invasion of Southern soil, by stealth,
amidst tlie snored repose of a Suhhath
night, for the diabolical purpose of inaug
urating a* ruthless war of the blacks
against the . whites throughout the
Southern States; lias prompted large
masses of Northern people openly to
sympathise with tho treacherous and
4th. That we request tho Legislature
nnnounce this opinion by resolution,
tho earliest practicable moment, nnd
communicate it to our Seuntors and
Representative* in Congress, and to co
operate with tho'Govornor in calling u
'ontionoftho people to determine
on tlie mode and measure of redress.

Affairs In l*Iiiludolphtn<
A .dispatch to the Charleston Courier
dated Philadelphia Novombor 13th,
says: Tho news published in tho papers
this morning, that tlio South Carolina
Legislature had passed a law legalizing
tlie suspension of specie paymonts by
tlio banks of that Stuto, fell like a clap
of thunder on our community. It has
almost causod a panic here. All tho
fancy stock at tho opening of tho Bro
ker’s Board this morning, went down
with a run. Even good Securities are
very shaky. A largo amount of Stocks
will nccossarily fce forced upon tho mar
kot.
The people here orojust beginning to
roalize/thut South Carolina is earnest.
Had thoy kndwn it two months 9go, wo
would havo a different state of things
to-day. X largo numborof heavy South
6rn orders wero countermanded yostor-
day. Lincolnism don’t seem to tako at
tho South.
It is feared that tho financial crisis
will overtake us about the first of Janu-
l’iorce

Emperor of Franco,because hols the
qliojco of Franco; becauso Franco pre
fers not only tliot ho should be lte ru
ler, but that his rule should be what It
is. Ho is an' incarnation of the spirit of
t)io nineteenth century. Wbon he
married M’llo de Montijo becauso ho
loved her, and proclaimed at the tltno
that ho was a parvenu, he uttered a
sentimont that was fully appreciated,
and performed a deed that was entirely
admired ail over the world. When ho
conquered hts way to Windsor Castle
by. dint of polioy nnd powor—that
Windsor to which his uncle could gain
nonccoss, with all hi* military genius;
when he invaded Euglnnd successfully,
and made its Queen pay him tho horn
ago of buckling u garter on his knee,
he symbolized tho triumph of Democ
racy over aristocracy; he represented
