The Issuo Plainly Stated.
We find the following Vetter, and the editorial
comments noon it, in the Buffalo' Commercial Ad-'
vertiser of November 27th. The issue between the
North and South we consider to be here very plain
ly stated on both sides. It is nol simply a question
of runaway negroes and personal liberty bills, but
it is a vital contest Tot Territory and political power.
The. editor of the Commercial Advertiser states
the policy and the determined purpose of the anti
slavery party of the North in good temper, and
with a clearness and decision that leave no doubt
that the warfare upon the equal rights or the South
in the territories is to know no shadow of turning,
of compromise, or of conciliation.
The fiat has gone forth from the anti-slaverv par*
ty of the North, that there shall be no more'slave
States in the Union. It is a warfare of what the
anti-siavery party of the North designates the prin
ciples of freedom against the institution of slavery
It is the irrepressible conflict.

Washington, Ga., Dec. 13, I860.
Gentlemen: Your letter of the 10th inst., inviting
bo on behalf of the citizens of Danburg and its vi
cinity to address you at an early day, was received
yesterday. I regret very much that my public du
ties deprive me of the pleasure of accepting your
kind invitation. But 1 shall be compelled to leave
for Washington city day after to-morrow, and un
less the state of the public business will nllow me
to return during the Christmas holidays, l shall
have i.o day at my command before your election ;
if 1 should return, 1 will take great pleasure in
meeting yon in council on the state of the country.
The Legislature of Georgia have unanimously de
clared that the present crisis demands resistance,
and have unanimously voted to call a convention of
the people to determine the mode and measure of
redress. This is plain language—it is easily un
derstood. It proposes to resist wrongs at the time
mid in the manner best calculated to obtain redress.
The Legislature, also, unanimously voted a million
of dollars to arm the people of Georgia, in order j Toombs an

But the South now goes beyond the Constitution
and demands a system of expansion. And it is to
ing in the North rests upon the northern intei
tioo of our rights in the Territories. The North and
the South are common owners of the National do
main. The South needs it, not for cotton, rice and
engar growing, for its soil is not adapted thereto;
but for political purposes, to hold a balance of power,
and to enable it to control the General Government,
its tariff* and its financial system, in Jhe interest of
the aforesaid cotton,rice,and engar growing interest.
On the other hand the North needs it as an outlet for
its surplus population) as a market for its manufac
tures, as a granery for the food of its workmen, and
as a political power by which to contTolthe General
Government in the merest* of it* manufactures
and agriculture with their appendages of colleges,
churches, and other institution* of like nature which
the North especially loves.
In the course or the expansion of our National do
main, it has happened that the Southern interest has
managed to get the best bargain. Fifteen million*
or National dollars went for Looisiaoa; five more
for Florida; ten more for Texas; and out of the
latter purchase has grown a National debt of sixty
millions which must be paid mostly by the import
trade of the North and all of which the North must
pay in event of disunion. All the vast advantages
above enumerated were, however, obtained by the
Union, they will do so under the full notification \ South under Constitutional methods and by color of

Letter from a Georgia Secessionist.
OrricK or SorriiEnx Fjem> and Fireside, 1
Augusta, Ga., November 23d, I860. /
We are in the midst of what is to me a most pain
ful revolution; ar.d I write you ns an old friend on
the subject, and in the hope that you will publish
my letter. My associations have long been with
planters who wield the sovereign power of this quar
ter of the Union, and it is their views and purposes
that I shall aim fairly to represent.
Mr. Cobh, Secretary of the Treasury, and Sena
tor Toombs, have each n planting interest estimated
at little below half a million of dollars, and both are
in an eminent degree representative men. TenVears
ago Mr.Cobb was elected Governor of Georgia by
eighteen thousand majority, as a conservative Un
ion Democrat, and was supported by Mr. Toombs
and all Union men of both parties. Now, Cobb and

woild has steadily augmented it* demand for their
cotton, rice, sugar and tobacco. At the same time
the people of the North have as steadily become
the sovereignty of Georgia, the State is unanimous .
What then is likely to divide us? It cannot be the
moie of redress, for it seems all look to secession,
separation from the wrong doers, as the ultimate
remedy The time when this remedy ought to be
applied seems to be the most important, if not the
only point of difference between us : we ought not
to divide upon this point. .Many persons think the
remedy ought to be applied home iatcly. others nt a
day not to extend beyond the itli of Marcli
anti-slavery in theory and in action. These
antagonist views and objects have been cherished
•and adopted as nettled to a degree that leaves noth
ing open but the grave question, whether the North
and the South shall separate in peace, or separate

love to the Union and free-hearted willingness to
sacrifice much for its perpetuity.
Now, under the Constitution also, and by color of
law, in accordance with the strict usage* and custi
of the Confederacy in all time pa*t, the North has
placed itself in a position where it can probably ph-
tabUsh its peculiar institution, freedom, in tho un<
settled and unadjusted Territories. Whereupon the
South revolt* at the cup she olten presented to our
unwilling lip*; say* she need* those Territories and I
will have them under pain of disunion. And the!
North say*, never! What was right for yon was
right for us. It is time that our necessities be con
sidered.
We are glad to see lliat Dt. Lee is too intelligent
to make the error so common among his neighbor*,
of accusing the Republican party, or the North,* f »
desire to interfere with slavery where it exist*. The
North has no such desire, nor the most distant motive
for any such aggression.
The fugitive slave law, and the failure of the North
to enforce it, is the next, per ha ns the principal grie
vance of our correspondent. We will not apply to
him the argument freely used in the border State*,
that they,and not Georgia, are the parties aggrieved
by that failure, and that all the ultra Southern folk
about the non-rendition of fugitive* is more cam,
designrd to cover a purpose practically involving the
ruin of the border States. We will give l)r. Leo
credit for a purpose to stand by the rights of hi*
whole section; and a real feeling of outrage at lb©
wrongs suffered by the slave-holder* of Virginia and
Maryland.
But. let ns remind Dr. Lee that the present fugi
tive slave law, which in some of its detail* i* offen
sive to the whole North, Democratic as well a* Re
publican, was nevertliless enforced, rigidly and to
the 1 slier, up to the moment, four year* after he pas
sage, u hen the South re-opened the slavery agitation,
and by a series of most unjustifiable wrong* so in
censed the popular sentiment here, that its enforce
ment became well nigh impossible. And yet. Dr.
Lee, while the utterance of a tree-soil sentiment
anywhere throughout the South deprives a man ol
all the rights of an American citizen, subject* him
n ignominious insult and endangers hi* life, when
the Northern man ha* no rights that the Southerner
bound to respect in the city where you live
this time we say, in the Republican city ol Mil
kee, and the Republican State of Wisconsin, u
zen, an editor of a paper, hut a little while ;
prosperous in life, lies cooped in jail for years, and
suffers the loss of all his property, in obedience
the Federal law, which punishes an attempt to r<
cue a fugitive slave. In the abolition village of
Oberlin, the United States officer* arrest
people guilty of the same offence against
pacts of the Constitution, take them to Cleveland,
confine them, nnd punish them by fine and imprison
ment. Such is i lie fidelity of the North to the rights
of (he South. Dr. Lee, can you point
ullel in the action of your own section ?
Perhaps you are right in your conclusion, that
the Union must be dissolved. We do not concur
with you. We think it will outlive the conspirator*
who threaten it; but while the North stands ready
to enforce all the concessions of the Constitu ion, ft
will never yield those demands which yon make,
running far beyond the Co stitution, and which vir
tually reduce the freo North to mere executors of
Southern dictation.

The statement of fret which Dr. JUe presents ts
to the change in sentiment of Messrs Lobb and
Toombs, only proves that two men, sworn to sup
port the Constitution of the United Stiles, one of
them occupying ih important fiduciary position*;
have managed to reconcile it to their consciences to
advocate the subversion of that Constitution. The

put them down at a sacrifice price. We offer
numbers 243 and 277, in the 27th of Decatur, con
taining 4iU) acres, nt eight dollars per aoro, with
some improvement*, and lying on Spring Creek—
well watered, and on the Railroad running through
that county, which will bo completed in tho course
of twelve month*. The land will make as much
cotton a* any in South-Western Georgia, which is
saying a great deal. Also, lots 201), 232, 248, 249
and 273, in the 20th of Early county, containing
1250 acres, »t five dollars per acre, lying on Chatta
hoochee River-—mixed oak nnd hickory—as good
land* as any in that country—well watered, and
some improvements scattered nbout on the lots; a
good crop could be made tho first year; in a good
neighborhood, and only four miles above Woodville
the East aide of the River. Also 169 and 179,
the 28th of Early, at ten dollars per acre, nnd I
will say that I would furnish, if desired, enough for
a larger plantation adjoining, all first rate onk and
hickory land, and within a short distance of Blakely.
A first rate framed building, with all necessary out
building.^ half a mile from tho Court House in
Blakely. Also a Store House in the town of Blake
ly. and in good repair. As Blakely is surrounded
with rich lands, it would bo an excellent stand for a
merchant. The society in Blakely cannot be beat.
This body of land has a never failing stream that
in* through it, which is a great item. Also, lot
816, and one hundred of 317, in the 28th district of
Early county, at three dollars and a half per acre,
directly on the road leading from Howard’s Land
ing to Blakely. Good productive pine land, very
well improved; a good crop can ho made the first
year. Also lot 71, in the 26th of Miller county, at
four dollars and a half per acre, lying on Spring
Creek, well improved, and first ratcland, mixed oak
and hickory. Also, lot 322 in the 13th of Miller
county, at three dollars per acre, lying directly on
the Creek, first rate land, mixed with all kind* of
growth. Also, lot 270 in Miller county, at four
dollars per acre, three miles and a half from Col
quitt, directly on the road leading towards Wood
ville, on a never failing stream, with a Grist Mill on
it, the only one in the county, with two log
buildings, and thirty acres cleared last year, good
well of water izz the yard, and I am able to say that
the contemplated Rail Road will run through op
near nil our lands, nnd it is bound to be in operation
in twelve months more. Owing to the pressure of
the times, I will take negro property in part pay.—
I am offering all these lands in three payments— in
terest on the two last.
I have offered these lands very low, and those who
wish a bargain had better apply soon.
