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, ed.

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 the rlso of talent to an equality with birth. For the nineteenth century pirit is not ono that would pull down distinctions, it would only render them accessible npd attainable to.all who can urn them. It throws open tho race to whoever chooses to enter, but, none the less, reserves tlio prizes, for a few, who have strength or skill to resell tlie goal. •So when Louis Napoleon appealed to tlio world in his pamphlet literature, ho recognized his responsibility to the world; when I10 wroto tho famous letter to Lord Palmerston, a few months ngo r ho indicated his respect for tho opinion of tho world.
