THE UNION CONVENTION.
This body, it will be seen by reference to their
v, proceedings, which we have given in extenso, in
•J| to-day’s paper, have nominated Martin Van Btt-
I ren for President, Richard M. Johnson for Vice
'1 President, Win. Schley for Governor, and Jabez
j Jackson, and Jesse F. Cleveland for Congress.
It appears, that the Troup Union men, did not
; come in for a very large share of the confidence
of the Convention. This disregard of their claims
on the countenance of the party, must, wo think,
create some lilto heart-burnings. It must boa
A sore disappointment, rendered doubly acute and

FROM THE SOUTHERN BANNER.
“The Auocsta Chronicle.—The editor of
•M this paper thinks hit vindication of Judge Clay
||S ton’s course on the French question, “was suffi
•s| cient to convince any man acquainted with the
political history of the day, that the view the
Banner took of it, displayed an utter ignorance
of the subject.”
We are not longer disposed to attempt to con
: trovert either the opinions or the assertions of an
/ individual who appears to bo on such very good
terms with himself. Wc therefore leave Mr.
Pemberton in full possession of the field—and to
the enjoyment of his self complacency.
His reasoning and arguments we could stand,
; . hut must bow before his idle assertions, particu
larly when founded on nothing more substantial
A than his good opinion of his own prowess in
, A wielding them—wc yield that to his vanity which
jiy his reason and arguments never could have ac
complished.”
Our’s was not a vindication of the course of
Judge Clayton in Congress—his course required
no vindication there, inasmuch as that body sub
| stantially adopted the measure he recommended
»in relation to the French Treaty. But, wc did
K vindicate Judge Clayton from the incorrect statc
'•m ments of the Banner, by laying his proposition
|B and the vote of the Senate before the public. Let
the Banner do tho same, and that public will be
k al||e to judge whether our remarks are “ idle as
rMsertions," or destitute of “ reason and argument
■jjP'ho subterfuge of the Banner is too weak and
.jshallow to impose upon any one having a know
ledge of the history of the French Treaty discus
sion.
COLONIZATION SOCIETY.
I A correspondent has sent us the following ar
t tide from the Boston Courier, with his own com
/ / -ments upon it, appended. He is a northern gen-
I f s . tleman and brought with him, if we mistake not,
' .' A when he first visited the south, all those prejudices
against slavery, which unfortunately prevail at the
s4'the north to an alarming extent. A close obser-
Avation, and a more mature reflection upon the
■Ssubjcct, have, it seems, convinced him of the error
Santo which he originally fell, in the absence of
* Ijfcorrcct information, and that occular demonstra
■tion which is indispensably necessary to a true
IHurowlsdge of the effects of slavery upon the me
dial condition and the general resources of socie
infiy. We consider his views, in relation to tho
. *Colonizationists as well as Abolitionists, pecu
, .’Biarly correct, and as such recommend them to
;.4Sihe attention of our readers:
Correspondence of the Boston Courier.
•V; t Andover, June 29, 1535.
\ / tPy * * ISTC rcturn ed, this evening, from hearing a
■rase ', -
< tyr 1
lecture at Mr. Badger’s meeting-house, on Colo
nization, by Rev, Mr. Gurley, Secretary of the
American Colonization Society. The spacious
~ church was crowded, and the audience listened
witlr unwearied interest for an hour and a quarter,
*• to a lucid exhibition of facts and reasoning, cnli
f vened by touches of eloquence, breaking like the
loam of tho sea. The subjects of slavery and CO-
S' lonization, connected as they are in our country
‘' with our Union, and interwoven with our pros
perity as a Nation, may aptly be compared with
e the Ocean—there is the same extent—tho qnes
1. lions connected are fathomless, the waves are
> rocking, and tokens of a storm gathering, that
i, will carry desolation and death in its path, if there
is not wisdom and prudent action among tho
i wise and the good, the patriot and tho .Christian.
lt Mr. Gurley very graphically remarked, that the
■? Colonization society came not with an earthquake
1 tread, attended with thunders and lightnings—it
’’ came rather, like the dew and the sunlight upon
v the green earth. a The Society, if it answered no
other purpose, formed a bond of union between
the South and the North—it kept together the
1 wise and the good of every section, and was si
" Icntly and gradually at work to benefit the slave
j and the master, our own country and Africa.A—
The speaker paid an eloquent tribute to Mr. Sam
uel J. Mills, one of the founders of the Society. If
1 ever a man loved to do good by stealth, and blush
ed to find it fame, It was Mills—lie stood behind
the vast system of moral machinery he had set in
* motion, and touched the secret spring that moved
' tho world. Ho now slept in the depths of the
ocean, but tho judgment day would reveal the
! motives of his heart and the result of his prayers
; in behalf of the colonists and of Africa. Mr. Gur
ley stated what had been done at the colony, the
number of churches erected, and the happiness
i and prosperity of tho emigrants,c and instanced
tho recent testimony of the Rev. Mr. Wilson, who
■ had resided fourteen months al Liberia, and had
1 never touched a single cent received from tho So
ciety’ ; his testimony was unbribed, and went to
1 prove the fine moral and physical condition of tho
inhabitants. Mr. Gurley also made some state
ments relative to the effect of colonization move
ments upon slavery—every sail that was spread
over the ocean, to waft the emigrants, awakened
the sympathy of even the children of the South -,d
it spoke of tho land from which the slave was cru
elly torn, and it sept beams of light upon the dark
story of their wrongs.e The whole discourse was
replete with information, which was very much
needed here, as I do not know of a colonization
lecture delivered before for several years in this
town. Its claims to support have been overlooked,
[ for want of the statement of facts, to refute tho
. gross calumnies that have been uttered against it
by the abolitionists. The results of this evening
will bo highly beneficial to the cause, and have
a tendency to deter many from a crusade against
the peace and safety of our Southern bielhren,
who need our sympathy and brotherly assistance,
in counsel and deed, to remove an evil which
blights their social condition, and hangs with the
weight of a mill-stone upon the neck of their pros
perity-/
It is in vain for ns to stand aloof upon this sub
ject : vve are sleeping upon the crater of a volca
no—should abolition principles prevail a servile
war will rage at the South. Tho most talented
men at the North have kept back; the wise and
prudent have stood remote from the strife, fore
seeing the storm, but hoping to retard it by their
silence—the subject seemed to belong exclusively
to the South, and to bo environed with insurmoun
table difficulties. Tnc lime has arrived for I him
to go forward and in solid phalanx express their
views. It is in vain to sneer at and declaim against
the Garrisonitcs ; —they are at work and making
proselytes rapidly, their plans arc and
they will never be consummated, but in the blood
and ruin of the republic. It is the part of our
public men, our leading minds, to point out a re
medy ; silence now criminal, the community
want to be guided, and if they will not come out,
the fountains of public sentiment will be irretrie
vably poisoned, and tho turbid and unwholesome
1 waters will sweep over the land. C.
I notice the above article more particularly than
any of the thousands of a simlar nature, with
which the northern presses teem, in consequence
of my regard for the Editor of the Courier. Al
though not personally acquainted with that gen
tleman, my acquaintance with his writings, and
■ with circumstances in which he was seriously in
terested, cause me to set a high value on his tal
ents and character, and contribute tjj my surprise
that he should suffer his paper to become a co-opc
. rator in conveying to tho public mind, the most
dangerous prejudices—prejudices jeapordizing tho
peace and permanence of the American Republic
—and that, too, without once stopping to canvass
fairly and openly, the subject under observation.
But firmly believing that Mr. Buckingham is dis
posed to do justice to all questions, I presume that
' no more is necessary than to call his serious and
[ profound attention to Slavery, to warrant that to
i pic, what it has never yet had in the North, a
1 TiioßOur.it and candid investigation, at least
by himself, if by no others. Like nearly all other
. men, I suppose Mr. B. has given his assent to tho
. assertion that ‘ Slavery is an evil,’ without re
flecting on the circumstances which gave rise to
I this institution, and the incalculable advantage it
I has been to mankind ; —but there are some insti
tutions which, from our infancy we are taught to
revere and love, and others, to dread and hate, —
* of the latter description is Slavery with some
Christians, and Christianity with ail Mahome
tans.—As an abstract principle, stripped of all cir
’ cumstances, perhaps tlieic is not an individual
I living, of a refined and intelligent mind, who
would advocate slavery any quicker than would
the most tender hearted philanthropist in the
North. And denude in like manner, and hold
up to the mind’s eye, the principles of self-de
fence and retaliation, by which we protect our
rights and redress our wrongs, and none but a de
mon would advocate them; but as things now
.. stand, none will deny that tho institutions which
have risen on these principles, have been, and still
s are, productive of the greatest good to man, and
e indispensably necessary to his moral, as well as
his physical, improvement; and who does not see
e that in the institution of slavery they are heauli
f fully associated, for the melioration of that rigor
j. and severity which otherwise they arc compelled
to adopt.
e a This an ominous sentence —full of warning
„ to the South; and one which should place on
„ his guard every individual who has at heart a
e wish for her welfare. Tho operations of the
Colonization Society arc indeed silent, and al
-0 most unseen; but on this account their effect is
not the less to be dreaded, —the pestilence that
“ walkcth in darkness ” claims more victims than
any other, and the plague that hides itself beneath
1 tho skin, until the whole system is rotlcn, is ever
r -in i „ * ...,
AUGUSTA, SATURDAY, JULF SB, 0535.
■ the most fatal and terrific. The planters of the
' couth have no less to fear fiom Colonizationists
J than from Abolitionists; both aim at the same
object—the emancipation of their slaves ; the lat
ter wish to liberate them now, without any com
-1 pulsion ; the former wish them to wait until they
shall bo bound by their honor, (which they arc
aware is peculiarly sacred to the Southerner,) tc
release them. ‘But,’ say the.Colonizationists,
‘ wo do not wish planters to give their slaves free
without a remuneration ; we know that in their
slave stock, the larger amount of their property ip
vested, —wo expect by our association to raise
money and purchase their slaves.' J'iauters,
would it not be well for you before you place full
confidence in this assertion, to mark well of what
materials the Colonization society is formed 1—
Where, or of whom, is this society to collect mo
ney to purchase your slaves I Tho answer is, o(
its members, and thsy arc endeavoring to engraft
you in its membership, and for what I—why, for
sooth, to obtain money by your contributions, to
, buy of you your own slaves! And are you to be
duped in this way 1 Is tills ceremony, of buying
your own slaves, by taking money out of one pock
et and putting it in another, the boasted advantage
given you by the Colonizationists over the Aboli
tionists I
b How is this society to benefit “ tho slave and
the master, our own country and Africa ”I—how
to benefit the slave 1 is it by merely sotting him
free from his master? This will be a curse to
him; for all agree, that the free black in the
north enjoys fewer of tire comforts of life, and loss
of the confidence of tho whites, than does the
slave in the south. But, says the objector, wo will
transport him to Africa 1 And is this the blessing
intended for the now happy and contented negro
—to tear him away from tho productive fields of
his native land, in which, of all others on tho
globe ho can most easily subsist, and to place him
in a country to whose climate he is a stranger,
and whoso inhabitants are known to barter their
own children for the necessaries of life !!
I need not ask how the planter and our own
country arc to benofitted by tills society; all know
that its operations must ruin the planter; and to
suppose that our government can transport one
third of its inhabitants 5,000 miles away, and co
lonize them there, and support them under tire
blighting influence of an uncongenial climate, —
against the assaults of powerful and savage ene
mies, more inhuman, and not less treacherous,
ban the North American Indian, and all this to
its own advantage, may bo considered an idtra
stretch of philanthropic nonsense.
Perhaps this will benefit Africa. For she may
sell her land to the colony, then murder tho colo
nists and secure their cflects 1 Is this the benefit
to bo bestowed on Africa ?
c A prosperous state indeed, and one affording
fine prospects to the Colonizationists, when the
Governor of that colony sends us word that an
influx of five hundred yearly could not be sup
plied there without aid from other countries, or
from homo. A very enticing prospect, certainly!
d “Awakened tho sympathy of even the chil
dren of tho South”! What a reflection on
Southern character! And is it come to this, that
the South is to bo represented at tiro North, as
not possessing even the common sympathies of
humanity ?
e I am well acquainted with the method pur
sued by such dcclaimers to excite tho feelings of
their hearers. On such occasions, a story of tire
African’s wrongs, is invariably told; and an ima
ginary, unreal, and exaggerated story it is, too!
True, some Africans have been “torn” from their
homes, and unmercifully, cruelly, heartlessly
sold, into ignominious brutc-likc servitude; but
that number when compared with those who
have been sold as prisoners of war—the only
scheme ever devised to exempt them from cold
butchery—is exceedingly small; and this is a no
torious historical fact.
“ So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Is
rael.” / But is tho South to be lulled to sleep by
such honeyed words as these ? In this sentence it
is declared that a crusade is intended by tire North
against their “ Southern brethren and if mea
sures were taken at this meeting “to deter many
from” an immediate crusade against tho south, it
was only with a view to make tho fatality of that
crusade when it should be comipenccd, more cer
tain. And this crusade is to bo commenced and
carried on under the plea that their “ sympathy
and ‘brotherly’ assistance, in counsel and deed,
is needed, “to remove an evil which n lights
oun social condition ! and hangs with the
weight of a millstone upon the nech of our
prosperity.” To say nothing of the arrogance
and uncourteousness of this sentence, it is, be
sides, positively false. If slavery bo an <?vil to
Southerners itis one they dread tiro removal of
as they do the separation of soul and body ; and
so far from crying to the North for assistance to
remove it, it is their greatest fear, that in future
such assistance will bo forced upon them. But
slavery is not an evil to the South, —I repeat it, it
is not j and so fur from weighing heavily “ upon
the neck of her prosperity,” it is the only staff
upon which she can securely lean, her only ave
nue to wealth. And what calumny could he coin
ed, more ungenerous and false, than that “it
blights her social condition ” ? Is there less so
ciability and urbanity in the south than in the
north ? If family jars, neighborhood divisions,
schisms in society, gross aspersions of character
litigations and riots, arc requisite to form a truly
social community, I freely admit that the north
possesses more of such materials than the south,
but may she ever be saved from the*“ social
condition ” which they constitute !
g “ Their plans are visionary,”—this is true;
and tho Colonizationists are able to sec it now, and
when they shall have “ plucked the beam out of
their own eye,” then will they be able to see that
their plans are not less chimerical and fanatic.
h “It is the part of our public men, our lea
ding minds, to point out a remedy s silence it now
criminal," Uc. When the Northern press groans
under such language as this -when the people
" " '■ - i.M. ~ ■—a---'-
IB I there, rise, and pronounce their “ hading minds," j
ts ' their “public men," “ criminals,” lor not leading
ie j them on in their wanton “ crusade” against south- .
t- I ern rights, is it not time for the South to awake, |
j. and make a simultaneous effort to repel the torn
y ble assault I—or will she, like the travellers on
c the enchanted ground, sleep on, until death dc
o prives her of the power of action 1 She sees the
s, tempest gathering slowly—pregnant with dark
e and sure destruction—in every quarter of her po
ir lilical horizon, and yet she is still—remains inac

)- to it, because I considered the sentiments of the
>f Andover correspondent, as its own ; and because
ft I believe it can have no special interest in pro

e dangerous tendency. If every man in the U. 8.
g should become a member of the Colonization So
• cicty, it would be still unable to execute its do
e signs; but this can never be ; and from what I

, we have ever hoard on any occasion—full of thril
j. ling appeals to the soul of the patriot, and enrich
ed with constitutional principles and historical
3 incidents of great interest. A crowded audience
i testified their delight by the most animating ap
• plause. The day was spent at the public Hotels
and private dinner parties in a round of patriotic,
exhiliration. In the same Church at 4 o’clock,
the Temperance Society very appropriately ccle
-1 brated its independence of the Demon of Intoxi
cation, and with a numerous audience, listened
with delight to the voice of infant music, ns it

scholars had been practised for the occasion and 1 1
acquitted themselves most admirably. Judges |,

. took place on this question, that this arrangement p
would not necessarily put an end to annual res- c
• sionß. The Constitution a« »» now stands, gives j'
‘ to the Legislature the power of “ adjourning to v
any future day,” The General Assembly is not | ;i

interval than two years, if the public convenience | p
1 requires, or tho people so will it. j t ,

There has been but a moderate business done in
our cotton market this week. The principal buy-1 t
ers having left, and holders having been anxious 1 j
to close up their small slocks, tho latter have sub-1 0
| milted to lower prices to effect sales. Tho stock
| for sale is now reduced to 1000 or 1500 bales, and 0
i the business for the season may he considered as c
! nearly closed.—The receipts from this time for- |
I ward will bo quite light. Tho sales amount to u
I 1325 bales, as follows; 13 at 10, 12 at 16), 30 (

The transactions of the rollon market at this til
time, do not call for any very extended remarks,
as the stock on sale in the first hands has now be- nt
come too inconsiderable to create ranch excite
ment; the sales of tho past week will probably
reach 6,000 bales, ami have been principally of
select parcels, only one or two sales of round lota ~
having taken place; the demand for the better <STii
qualities being fair, while inferior descriptions ap. ®
pear to bo rather neglected. We leave our for- j
mer quotations standing, no essential difference, e j
in that respect having occurred. Our but advi- |
cos from Liverpool arc rather more encouraging,
but what effect they will have upon the market an
icinains to be seen; wc are inclined to think very
little, as buyers do not manifest any eagerness to
operate at present prices. Tho sales of which we jj.
have particular notice, are as follow, viz: of Lou- B |,
isiana and Missippi 140 bales at 21J ; 160 at 18);
