on the subject of tho next Governor’s election. He
spoke of tho present Executive, and lauded his admin-
iatration. He said that Governor Crawfurd had made
a most excellent Governor—that he was an aide and
an efficient One—a man whom the people regarded, and
w ho from Ilia successful administration, would be hard
to bent. But lie urged his parly to go against him—
and more, he urged them to lose sight in the contest,
of those questions which should be opporinost, and fight
the battle, not upon local, but federal politics. In other
words, ho was for deceiving the people as to tho true is
sue, and all to ensure the success of his parly. Is this,
wo ask, tho way lor freeman to act ? Will tho voters
of Georgia.be governed by such leaders’ Surely such
palpable evidences of want of true patriotism will bo
rebuked by a discerning people !
But in tho caso above alluded to, it will bo soon (hat
the speaker did noi depart from every principle of jus

Last week wo gave tho particulars of tho organiza
tion of this Convention, which assembled at Louisville,
Ky., on tho 1st inst. On tho 3d day, Bishops Socle and

The following, from the Louisville Journal, is the latest

| From the Louisville Journal,J
FOURTH DAY.
Monday Morning, May 5. |
Tho Convention met pursuant to adjournment, Blah,
op Soule in the chair.
Devotional exercises were conducted by Dr. Win.
arts.
Dr. Winans submitted the following resolutions,
which lie moved to refer lo the committee on organiza
tion ,
Resolved, That the committee on organization bo in
structed to inquire whether or not any thing has trails-
pired during ihc past year to render it possible to main
tain the unity of thu Methodist Episcopal Church, un
der the same general conference jurisdiction, without
tho ruin of Southern Methodism.
As this resolution involves some very important con.
sidcrations, Dr. W. said lie wished to accompany the
motion fur its reference with somo remarks. Necttsihj,
lie said, can only justify the meeting of this convention,-
exjiediency could not. He assumed that at the close of
the late general conference this necessity did exist, nor
did he deem it necesary for him to adduce any testiino.
ny to establish the fact, lie said that slavery was so
iuterweven with the texture of Southern society that it
was impossible for any one to disontanglo it, nor can
any religious society avoid, if it would, connection with
this institution. It is also true, that public opinion ral
lies around this institution with great jealousy, ai d
that Ito who comes to the South nr lives in the slave,
bolding States, and Brraya himself against slavery, dir.
qualifies himself from exercising any influence what
ever. He who would oppose slavery can havo no in
fluence in the South civilly, politically or ecclesiastic
al l.v.
He adverted lothc fad, that, to lbis day, the ill-judg
ed course of Bishop Coke, on the subject, is felt most
disadvantagnusly to the interests of Southern Method
ism. Tho interests put in peril were not merely those
connected with the preachers. They could have borne
tho outrage upon their rights which the action for tho
majority had perpetrated. It was not personal fcclmg
—not tho wounded espiril du corps oil the part of
the Southern delegates, which demanded satisfaction.
It was a conviction that those outrages would disquali
fy them for their great and solo work—tho preaching of
God’s word throughout tho Southern country. This
conviction had led to their solemn declaration near tho
close of the General Conference. Have they not been
buruc out in the judgment then made 1 Ask thu voico
which has cotno up Irom every part of the Southern
country, whether it is so. The answer is, that, if the
delegates were at fault, it was that they bore so long
and so patiently. And who is to be judged in this case.’
A>e the Northern papers competent to judge, whose con
ductors view the matter through the medium of pas
sion, prejudice and commitment ’
We cannot hesitate to proceed to a separate organi
zation. Has anything transpired to change tho aspect
of things since the last general conference 1 lie knew
of none. Has the South evinced any disposition to
drawback! Yes. In Now Orleans there is one mem
ber of tho whole church opposed to division. In the
Natchez district there is one. In the whole Mississippi
conference three. And twelve out of the fifu-en con
ferences represented here present about the same atato
of things.
The property question ! The cry has been raised,
that by separation wo would forfeit our claims to the
church property. He would not impugn the motives of
those who had started the question, yet ite apprehend'
a bo at ilia Episeqpacy gave rest, for the time, to.the
Southern churches on the subject of slavery, nod par*
tioi were formed in the general conference solely on
tho ground of (he Episcopal question, or, as it was com-
ntotily called, *the presiding older quest inn.’
This question had produced at least one other good
effocL It bad united the South and West as one man
—Ohio and Carolina standing side by sido for sn effi
cient supcrintendcncy aa necessary to an effect ivo itin
erancy. This union of thu West and South enabled
them lo put down the revolutionising scheme at those
times, and preserve tho Episcopacy from being controll
ed ill the exercise of its functions by annual confer
ences. Htnco thou abolitionism had sprung up and ex
tended itself widely in the church from the East lo the
West. And it was a proof of its extent, and of its
power where it extended, that the West in the free
Slates had been severed from the South and Southwest

Mr. Crowder approved heartily of the retolulion,

which shall meet, as far as may bo, the views of the
Northern portions of the church.
This resolution led to an animated discussion, in

and Siringl icld, took part, aud, after having been chang.
ed from the form in which it was originally presented
by the mov er int o that staled above was adopted.
Dr. NV. A. Si nith, offered the following resolution,

Resolved by the Delegates of the several Annual Con-

ali Convention ass> nnbled, That we cannot snnetion the

maining under th c ecclesiastical jurisdiction ol this
body, without deep and lasting injury to the iiiterosj*
of tho church and the country ; we, therefore, hereby
instruct tho commi tteo on organization that if upon a
careful examination of the whole subject,they find that
here is no reasona' ale ground to hope that the North

Latest from Tf.xas.—The Now Orleans Picayune
of the 11th inst., publishes accounts from Texas to the
7th irift’Nitt, received at that port by the steam ship
New York. There is little of interest from that Re
public. There appears to be great unanimity in regard
to the subject of annexation—indeed tbe people of
Texas already regard themselves a9 part and parcel of
the United States.
Maj .Donelson, U. S. Charge, came passenger in the
New York.
Commodore Moore has involved himself in a contro
versy with Gen. Houston, and publishes art address to
the people of Texas, in which he exposes his grounds
of dissatisfaction with theex-President, threatening to
follow it up with other exposures, until he can receive
personal satisfaction for the injuries which ho thinks
himself to have received.
A PrAtiK Prevents*.—A French gentleman of sci
entific abilities, Mr. J. Dempfil, has invented an attach
ment for the chimneyofa locomotive, which will doubt
less prove nf great usefulness ; ono has been attached
to an engine on tho Norristown Railroad. The chim
ney is divided by a partition into two passages, one run
ning upwards and the other downwaids; at thn bot
tom of the downward passage is a fly wheel, which is
set in motion by the steam, and the top being closed it
creates a strong draught, which draws the heat, smoke,
gas and cinders down towards tho fire again, and they
enterthe furnace after filtering through a hod of gravel
placed beneath the wheel.
It is thought that this invention will effect a great
saving of fuel, besides obviating all danger and incon
venience from the sparks and smoke, which are usually
emitted from the chimney of the locomotive, and form
one of the discomforts of railroad travelling.

TROUP SUPF.RIOU COURT,
April Term, 1815.
T HE Grand Jurors selected for ihe first week of Troup Su
perior Court, April Term, in conclusion of ilu ir term of
service, beg leave to offer the following presentment* :
It in gratifying to us, n* citizen-* i f the county of Troup, to
ee so few case* of crime or gross innnorulity practised by her
people. Ami whilst other counties in the Siaie of Georgia,
' h n smaller repre*enuttive population,nresuffering mnteri-
Iv from a gross iiilrnt-lion ofilte Inw, and the morula ol their
younger citizen*greatly corrupted front the evil example of
ilm*e who should point’them to honesty and integrity, a* tho
]y safeguard of their happiness, our people, w .ill one accord
i united in the suppression of crime, and a ligid enforce-
mm! of the tons nf the land. It i* trite, that we bate amongst
us some (as elsewhere) who are obnoxious to the law, and
delight lo revel in deeds of darkness, but with such amoral
force astlte united effort of onr good citizen* make in oppo*»-
r Court* of Justice ore not now crowded (a* hlore
lime) with corruption, nor it* records blackunc-d with ita
schedule ofcrinm nud niiidetncunor.
Tlielawadministeri d by auch tnenns l e who now presid * in
the Court* ot Justice of ilic Coweta Diiliic.t, becomes n terror
to evil doers; and ttic ciiminal offender no longer flatter* him-
self tUa t he will go unwhipped ol justice. But whiht we thus
congmluUte our fellow-citizen* on lire prospects beloie iliein
we nre sorry lo suy that lltcro arc some whose r.recep:* and
practices <*nll for onr serious reprehension and auiuiadver-
And amongst other things, we present tho practice which
some of our citizen* have adopted ol suffering iltei 1
their own time, and to peddle and traffic in si;
erchnndize as arc wholly proltihiied by law, a
their Imoths and wagon* around the public square,
of La Grange, and other public pluce*, on public uc
tbe purnoHe of fuiui*hing rolresliments to thosi
wish rcfreshinenl*. Such practices we present a*
moralizing in their character and tendencies, and exercise a
du* influence noon the slave population of the country.
And we would earnestly recommend to ihe proper authorities
rigid enforcement ol the law, in such caaes made and provi
ded.
We present tho swnrm of Pedlers, w hich now invest our
nuntrv, imposing their spurious good* upon the ignorant and
nwury,n* the genuine nrlE’lc, aud front the ch* apnessofllte
good* practise impositionM upon the pood citizens ol the coun
try. Nve present them a* a grievance onerous and opoiossno
people, and recommend to the Legislature of tli* State
tho adoption of some measures us will drive them front
amongst us.
further present ihe practice which has heretofore been
adopted by the Clerk* of the Inferior Court ot this county, of
issuing licence to retailers to vend ardent spirit* previous to
the date of their license, thereby giving to recreants uo excuse
to commit a breach of the law in such oases made and provL
ded. We present such n course a* evil in it* tendencies, and
corrupting and deleterious iu its consequence*. And wo do
hopeth.it thn present Clerk will issue no more such licenses,
‘"he Grand Jury, «* a body, visited the public jail of the
.my, with a view to examine it*construction and workman-
ship, nndfound it highly discreditable to the county of Troup.
It* construction and workmanship is not ol that order of
architecture that will give character lo the architect, or as-
ranee to tho Court that its inmates will be kept secure.—-
We present it a* a nuisance of no ordinurv character, and we
do earnestly recommend to the Inferior Court, whose duty it
is, to take active and energetic measure* for the completion ot
the old or the erection of a new jail building.
We suggest to the Justices of tho Inferior Court the pro
priety of having some convenient oud comfortable scats ercc*
' 'itliout the bar of the Court house, (or the convenience of
those who tuny have business in tho Court.
We have bad under consideration the Act jwissed by thn
Legislature of 1843, lelativa to the education of the poor. And
being lullv lonvinced of the itnpoiiiinc.e ol it* recommenda
tions, ua well from ibe eloquent and able chuigeof the Judge
from our own conviction of the absolute necessity of pub-
education, and that the stream* which issue fiom its puie
d hallowed louiit may cleanse from the pollutions ofignor-
ce the youthful poor of our country, do recommend to the
Inferior Court ol Troup county the assessment of a tax of ten
per cent, upon the tax tor county purposes as a poor school
fond in accordance with th«* statute ulmvo referred to. We
linvc likewise examined the books ami account* ot the count?

vision of the Mc'.l.odisl Episcopal Church would not
have any injurious influence upon Ihe Uuinu of the
StatcB. On lho contrary lie maintained that we should
preserve the Union of Ihe Slate* by dividing tho church.
It would put a slop to the agilalion of the slavery ques
tion on religious grounds. The Northern portion of
the church would ho rid of their “connection with
slavery," and uo room would bo left for those agitators
who plead con<rfcRcr. Their strongest weapons would
thus be wrested Irom them.
Dr.Capert had no objection to instructing the com
mittee a» to the matter proposed, though he did not
doubt it would come undsr consideration in committee
without tiie instruction*. He suggested a change iu
the warding of tho mMjon to instruct, which Dr. Wi-
take into consideration the condition of our schools

Resolved, That a committee bo appointed 10 be call-
ad the commitiee on finance, whose duty shall bo to
consider the best method of securing a just portion of
the ho k concern and chartered fund, and recommend
the bent financial system for future operation.
Both the resolutions passed.
Mr. L. Campbell, of Mississippi,rose and called up
the rmolulion which had been offered by lire. Smith
and Pierce on a previous occasion.
Mr. C. spoke in support of the resolution, and was
followed on the same by the Rev. G.F. Pierre.
