Ci av ion, at the Athens meeting—spoke of‘‘a
ettrhiin cclthmlrtl Meeting at Athens,” with a
most, signilicantlv sarcastic and contemptuous
sttcer, that drew down upon him, instantaneous
ly, a Km i, long. & ovcrwhclnining volley of in
d'ge mt hisses, from the densely crowded luhby
tod gslhny ; which, however, I e seemed from
his signllicant smile, on proceeding, after it was
over, lo regard witlfas much contemn!, as the
At.tens meeting. Col, Ci.auk sustained his
views, generally, ofthe Tat iff'and the Resolu
tion.
It was contended hy the gentlemen muho ollic r
| side, that the course required hy Mr. F. was al
j together unusual, if not improoe lenio.l, and its
object of ascort tiniii" the nitinbor of voles giv
•’it, to each member, impracticable— and the
claim, that each should have a maio-ify of the
voles ol'his county, unreasonable—that no such
evidence wns required lo other deliberative
bodies, and to obtain i* would require a length
I of time incompatible with the progress of the
j business of the Convention —tii.it the appear
l .tnco of ;i moinhcr, an 1 presentation of his urg-

1 to suppose, that il would ho contested, if not ful
!y correct, and according to'genoral legislative
usage, it would bo time ctiungh to investigate it
tin titer, when it was contested—that this body
had no right lo dictate tolltc people in what mode
they should choose their delegates; nor had anv
been ptosented; and some few had been cho

others had been elected at the polls—that it
wns sufficient for this body, that the people were

sent them; ar.that they wore so willing, there
was every reason to believe, till their seats
were contested-the conrsa pursued, was not
only extraordinary, but unreasonable—the, Cr-m-)
mittee themselves might be untpialilicd to sit,
and t>il lii.il fact was determined, where would j
be the. justice or propriety oftheir questioning or j
acting entire rightsufo hots?—df thogeiilleman
from Tiulonoti'l Tell satisfied of his own right,
why should lie doubt that the qualifications of
others worn equal to his own”—lf any of the
creilemials appeared imperfect, he nr any oilier
individual might question litem, end have them
referred according to usage; to such a Commit

Hahi vvin, lo be investigated hy them, and by the i
facts rc|)orlc-l or:, for the-consideration of she j
Convention—To require that each member
should have a majority of the votes of his coun
ty, was unreasonable—S-umo might bo appro
ved by all their constituents, and yetdiavc been
cltosen by a minority —Gen. Jackson was the,
choice of a largo majority at least ofthe people
of Georgia; but, was it not evhlenrtlHilhe would. I

they evidently designed’to acede to the choioe
of those who did—!t was desirable to proceed,

bounds, as in' gome cases, at least, the uottces
given, and number of votes and voters could ,
not bo ascertained without sending messongeiß

coed, and tho investigation be made as circum

of the proceedings of this Convention, ensure !

Very unhnalhig, eloquent nna soirit stirduv
s. eecltes wore tnadehy Gt n. lit aii, ol Twigs*, !
and Col. Ai i'nitu of Ttoui). Tiro so. mur, in il-|
■ luslraling the uselessness of tho minute exatnin. j
; ation rotpiiroil, sot forth, in sinking colors, the ■
j f cl, that the ff st delegate from this State imho j
I slurb t:s Congress of 1770, was sent tlioro by the
I people of liio single county of liberty, atone, |
j and yet was received and rncogniapd as the Th l j
j ogate ol ih.) Slate. Ami the latter, alluding to I
i the doubts oXj *i sserlhy Mr. Forsylli that the Dei
j cgalos ropresen'r. I the S wereignty of Georgia,
i xclaitni'd, with deeply impassioned fooling,
“ And if they come, nat hero with all the firms
of Sovereignty, by heaven, they come With the '
lurirt and suttl of Suvoreignty I ”
It was. observed in reply to Mr. Forsyth's
sarcasms on tho word “ privileges,” that it of
course applied to the privileges of a Delegate,
to a seal in the Convention, and to speak and
act therein, and was therefore appropriately
used in the denomination ofthe Committee in
question.
After along debate, the continuance of tho
subject was postponed to the following day.
Tho President announced the following named
gentlemen as tho Committee of 21, appointed
under the resolution of Mr. Torrance, adopted
yesterday, “ lo report rcsolu ions expressive o*'
the sense of this Convention, in relation to the
Protective System, and tho host ami most ctli

that system; and also what objects ought to en
