Tho bill provldnig for a Convention
of tho pooplo of Oeorgia to determine
the mode, manner and thne of resistnneo
flint this state will offer to existing
grievances, has unanimously pasted both
Houses of the Legislature and became
a law. This harmonious action was so
cured by taking tho middle ground be
tween those of different views in the
Legislature and is doubtless the golden
mean between the extreme measures
proposed.
It must be highly gratifying loall good
citixcns of this commonwealth that
tho first *wo steps towards tho
grout revolution upon which we are now
entering—for a revolution it surely u but
we hopo a bloodless one—have boon ta
ken *o fui as Legislative notion is concern
ed without one opposing voice. Wo al
lude to tho appropriation of/a mil
lion dollars, and the call for a Couvctv
tion.
The Legislature has surely set a good
example and it is most sinoerely to be
hoped that the people in the selection
of Delegates to roprosent tho different
counties will s 11 make patriotic efforts
tube equally harmonious in their action,
and act like a band of brothers in the
great common enuso. There will be no
use them for the partisan friends of
Breckinridge, Dell or Douglas; but we
want Georgia patriots, good men and true;
tiioso who ean appreciate the awful
grandeur of the position this State now
occupies; who will listeu to reasou, and
yet will be firm in the maintenance of
right and correct policy.
Each county will bo entitled to as ma
ny delegates hi this Convention as they
have members in both Houses of tho
Legislature, and these ought to bo the
best men in tho respective counties If
.it can be ascertained who those are,
and in their selection no reference whaL
ever should bo iiad to their former po
litical prejudices. To theso men it will
be remembered, the people will dele
gate tho power or declaring Georgia
out of the Union; either alone or with
other States; immediately or at any subse
quent date t absolutely, or contingently up
on their refusal to accede to any de
mands that may be mado upon the non
slaveholding States; or, to adopt auy
othor moile or measure of redress for our
grievances which they may deem wise
and prudent, when assembled.
In consideration of tiio very great
power given to this Convention and the
consequent intense interest every mair
has in being truly represented by those
in whom he has confidence, wo suggest
thatthore be but tho number of candi
dates run in the respective coun
ties to which they are ouch ontitlod in
tho Convention, and that those candi
dates be nominated by ballot, ovory man in
the county voting in tho nomination
tho same as if It was an election.
Our plan Is this: that the nomination
should be made at an early day say
Saturday the Rth of December. Let
due notico bo given, and opeu tho (tolls
at every procinot in thooounty; coll
upon ovory man who is entitled to voto
for representatives to tho Legislature to
deposit his ballot for tho men ho pre
fers to represent him ?n tho coming
•State Convention. Theso ballotings
may ho managed by porsonselected for
that purpose by tho pcoplo of each pre
cinct. The results of the ballotings at
the difibrent jirocinots shall all Ihi sent
up to tho Court House and consolidat
ed, and tho persons getting tho highest
number of votes shall be declared nom
inated, and these only should be regard
ed as candidates in the election.
Ity this mode wo should hope that
all strife would ho kept down and every
votor in each county would havoavoico
in bringing out the candidate*, Con
vention's for nominating candidates for-
•ly did very well, but the people du
ring iho past few years have been trick
ed so often by thorn, and deprived ol
their ohoicc that they have lost confi
dence In them—as they now become
log-rolling and wire-pulling machines.
Our only object in suggesting this plan
Is to secure harmony among our people
and at the same tlmo give overy sover
eign voter nn equal voioe in this matter
of such great importance. Tho prinoD
pies of genuine democracy yet prevail
and the will of the minority, when
pro|*erly expressed, will doubtless be
acquiesced in by ail. In this eleotion
let our motto still be ‘Trudbncs, Jus
tice and Moderation let us exercise
charity towards those with whom we
may differ, aud remombor. that tho great
interost of all is the sAiue.

Know all mon by those presents that
we, 0. H. Smith, J. II. McClung, and
W. F. Ayer, in view of the important
Railroad interest* of our town, doom,
and hold it necessary that we should be
elected Alderman of tho city of “Rome,”
for the ensuing year; and that it is right
and proper that we should be olected
for the further reason that we have more
capacity to dispose of our Railroad
Bonds, atal enforce ike city “ ordinan*
ces,” Ac., than any other persons what
ever* And for tho farther reason that
neither of us havo e^er held any office,
either Municipal, State or Federal.
Such, Mr. Editor, is the only inforence
that can be drawn Irom the prefatory re
marks In the announcement of the gen
tlemen aIkivo named, is, they have all
the respeotahility, all the capacity, nnd
all ths-capital of our flouridling city.-
What impudencet what arrogance!—
What arc the facts, Mr. 4 Kditor? Why.
Mr. Eve, or Mr. Noble, either one of
which have more money invested in the
manufacturing interest In Rome,* than
all thoso of tho respeotable gentlomen
put together, holding property In Rome;
and have taken considerable stock in
our U allroad enterprise; and hav done
and are doing a great deal for the bene
fit of '• Rome.” Mr. Hargrove, Dr.
Wofford, Mr. Harper, Mr. Caldwell, and
Mr. Omberg, have all taken stock In the
Georgia & Alabama Railroad, are prop,
erty holders, and deeply interested in
the welfare of our oity, well known to

men. And now who is most interested
in the prosperity of Rome? Let the
honest judgment of the peoplo answer.

ROME, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 30. 1860.
POFULAK VOTE OF GEORUIA.
Lincoi.xite Shkikkrki.—Wo regret to
■oil our paper with aiicli vlto ilxndon
■re contained in an articlo in an other
column of tlilx paper from the Chicago
Democrat. But it may not be amlu for
our peoplo to know to wlmt dl.gmcoful
lengths tho Block Itepublicuni go in
their taunting iiMulU to tho South.—
The Chicago Democrat i. the home
gan of Lincoln, and edited by “long
John” Wentworth, a man of contidcra-
ble prominence in hi> party. Huoli ar
ticles m tho one alluded to, if they
were not too contemptible for a decent
man to notice, would mnke the blood of
a rook boil. Wo only publiih a part
of tho article and are altogether inca
pable of expressing our contempt for
that much.

Huoh results are not accomplished In
day, nor In a venr. An individual in
volved In complicated business engage
ments cannot change his pursuits and
his locality in that time without serious
detriment. A man setting npin house
keeping requires time to mako his ar
rangements, nnd to equip hi. eatablUh-
mont. A community however small
and homogeneous, require, time for
thought and preparation in Inaugurat
ing an enterprise, however poaoefal and
unnppowd, which may involre outlay
of money, interruption of business con
nections, and new scheme, of policy.—
How muoh more important, then, is
time, deliberation, and the amplest pte-
paration, to an agricultural people like
those of Oeorgia, in the oontempluliun
of tiie question of change of Govern-
meut. 'I'liiire is no goad of necessity

tant convictions of our judgment, bo
advocsto for immediate secession. The
hopelessness of txirsovoring the Union
has made disunfonists since the elec*
tion, of thousands of Conservatives snd
Union men. The necessities of the
times, not of their seeking, but in
despite of their solemn warnings
auu protests, havo made it imper
ative with prudent men in theSputh, to
seek pew guards for their future soeuri*
ty*
But immediate . secession would *be
injurious to all, and disastrous to many
interests in Georgia. Yet Georgia could
secede with as little detriment to her
Immediate interests, and to her perma
nent prosperity, a« any other southern
State. The fact is they all require time
nnd preparation for so important a step
—tiie Cotton States not less than the
bonier States. The precipitate rush of
one State out of the Union, when no
others were ready to join* or to follow,
would be destructive t& that State—in*
jure her sister southern States-strciigth-
on the cause of tho common enemy,
and give him an advantage not easily
regained. Inflict, a State so Acting,
would defoat her own purposes, bring
upon her poople a lifetime of embur-
raxsnients and regrets, and ronder. diffi
cult tho peaceful inauguration of a
Southern Republic, whether composed
of five Htotes or of fifteen, powerful ond

Tho Coin in crcinl Crisis
Tho great political excitement that
prevails throughout tho land is Login
ing to have its affects upon rll money
matters and business, relat ions t It rough-
out tiie Union. Sovornl dispatclres up
on this subject from othor States may
bo found in another column. We are
told that by the Banks in Augusta and
Savannah very little money, if any at
all, is now being paid out ovon for cot
ton. Moat that is uow sold is to mer
chants in small lotfc of one, two and
throe bales, and paid for in goods.
Wo aro credibly informed that thoro
ia no money in Rome to pay for cotton
except $5,000 fa the hands of one buy*
er. The Agent hero of the Plnntors
Bank of Goorgia, has received instruc
tions n5t to pi$y out ,moro.money until
farther orders, and the Bank’of the

advances for the present. The present*
indications .aro that very soon, .there,
will be a universal suspension of all the

Gelt lag Frightened*
Avocrdlng to the Frovidenoo Post, the
KepublicttnH in Rhode Island aro get
ting senrod about the nppeuriinccs of
thiiias down South. It sayi;
It Is plain enough that the moro in
telligent of the Republicans are begin
ing to ft%el slightly alarmed. They re-
nlixe that the South ia In earnest, and
that a dissolution or tho Union is
amongst tha things possible, not to say
probable. And whether this shall
come or not, it feeem almost certain,
even to their skeptical mindfc, that our
tredlction of a revulsion and crash in
imsiness is about to be realised. Ono
meets n groat many anxious counte
nances in walking through our stroets
and Hot unfrequontly tlio question os
capos “What shall bo done?—what
ought to be done?—what cun be
done?”*
Strange to say—for itl* very strange-
great many of those Who wei*e
amongst the most ardent aupporters,of
Mr. Lincoln a few days ago, are now
amongst tiie* foremost to admit that
the South has been treated shabbily—
that she really had some reason to be
dissatisfied. The Personal Liberty
Laws of the Northern States, they
-grant, ought never to have been enact
ed. It needs no argument to convfaoe
them that this sort of legislation is bas
ed on natred of the South, and is fa
direct violation of tho spirit of Consti
tution. "These personal liberty laws,"
said a gentleman to us yesterday,
"ought to be blotted out at once and
forever." Another leading Republican
of our State, from whom wo heard on
Saturday, Is full of suggestions for a
compromise. He thinks that, for the
■ako of peace, the Republicans ought
to l>e willing to accept nonintervention as
their policy! Ho didn't think of it, wo
suppose, ten days ago, when tho ques
tion of intervention was before tho )»eo-
pie, with Mr. Lincoln Tor it snd Mr.
Douglas against it!
But something at any rate—so they
all assure us—ought to bo done.. What
am bo done? A few weeks ago they
were fall of fight. If tho $outli should
attempt to secedo, they would cut the
South into inch pieces, with their
bowloknives; they, would hang all
traitors; they would crush out aUun-
ion in fortv-eight hours, they would
maroh a million of Wido Awakes right
into South Carolina; they would starve
tho Whole South to death; they would
imprison everybody, and his wifo, and
his aunt, and his mother-in-law. All
at once this romody seems to be aban
doned, and everybody is inquiring what

iNsurrectlonary Plot in Habcrakam
Detected.
We.learn from a slip cut from the
Clarksville Herald, kindly furnished by
Col. S. J. Smith, of Towns, that an
alarm hgd 'recently been raised in
the lower part of that county,
near Walton's Ford, . fa oonsequenoe
of a conversation overheard by Mrs.
Phillip Martin, between several slaves
nnd one tree negro, in the neighbor'
hood.
The plan was to seise Mrs. M. throw
her into a well. The negroes, on being
arrested snd severely whipped, togeth
er with tho free negro, their -leader,
eonfetsed the whole plot. Their con
fession implicated one John K. Wilson,
the gardner of Mr. J. J. Prather, who it
seems had been talking and reading in
cendiary doctrines to them some time.
The sooundrcl was allowed five hours in
which to make his escape, of which
lie availed hi nmol f. U is said that the
oitisens had sufficient evidence to oon-
victhim; if so, It was an inexcusable
leniency to permit him to escape. A
few examples of the summary hanging
of such rasoals would go far to strike
terror Into the wicked hearts of their
oonfederatesp and perhaps save much
Innooent blood.
Let our oitisens in all portions of the
State bo Vigilant, especially in regard to
intercourse between suspicions white
mon and free negroes, with thrir slaves,
and to unlawful assemblages among the
latter.—JlilledgepilU Union.

Coercion ssi Credit.
It was asked where would the South
get the money-to prendre for her de
fence in tho event of being attacked by
the fedoral power? That question is
answered by our despatch .to-day. The
Southern States cau get monoy in abun
dance on the pledge of their cotton
and and other products. A question
more to the jpofnfr for those who talk
niadiy of waging war with the seceding
States would be, where is tiie North to
get tiie money to ooeroe them ? Il
would cost one hundred times as much
to successfully assail the Southern
States as would he necessary for them
to defend themselves. To conquer
nine millions of men fa their own
oountry, with all their resources around
them—men, too, who are skilled in the
use of arms, and not afraid to use them
—would bo a task from wliioh the roost

shrink^ England did her utjnost for
soven years to obnquer tho sahio peoplo
when the whole population'of the colo
nies only"numbered a ltuio over tbree
miUions,and that first class power failed
in the attempt. And so would any at
tempt on tho part of the Northern
States fail to suodue the South. For fib
it remombered that t{te moment a blow
was struck'by the North at ono seoeding
State, All tho Southern States would
rally round her; and it would be neces
sary to conquer all before one could be
brought under the yoke. However the
