They took up a line of march in a northerly direction, in order to inter sect tho Indian trail. At; the distance of about five miles the great trail was discovered, leading in a direction ofuorthwest towards the Mississip pi, and supposed to be about four days old. Gen. Atkinson seeing the direction of the ene my, knew well that it would require all diligence and expedition to overtake them before they would cross the Mississippi, and hence commenc ed fi omthat time a forced march; leaving all bag gage wagons, and every thing else which was cal culated to retard the pursuit. The country, through which tho enemy’s trail led our army between the Ouisconsin bluffs and the Kickapoo river, was one continued series of mountains. No sooner had they reached the summit of one high and almost perpendicular bill than they had to descend ou the other side equally steep to the base of another. Nothing but a deep ravine, x\ ith muddy banks, separated these mountains. The woods, both upon the top of the highest mountains, and at tho bottom of the deepest hollows, was of the heaviest growth. The under Im-hes-were chiefly thorn and prickly ash. This is a short description of the route, and shews the difficulties of the pursuit. Notwith standing all this, our army gained on the enemy daily as appeared from the enemy’s encamp ments.

But it is impossible to judge accurately of the exact import of resolutions iu a large assemblage. But few can hear distinctly, and when a person does hear, he is not capable of weighing- the precise meaning of the sentence, and oae sentence over looked, may contain propositions fromWhich one would entirely dissent, if calmly submitted ou pa per to the faithful vigilance of the eye. Of such a nature do tve consider the resc-lution delegating to a proposed Couvontiou plenary powers to act as may suit it: “Be it therefore resolved, That we, as free citi zens of Georgia, will not longer submit to a sys tem of legislation which is arbitrary, unequal, un constitutional and therefore unjust—that it be re commended to our fellow citizens in tho several counties, to elect delegates to a State Convention to assemble at Milledgeville on the second .Mon day in November next, and to invest them with full power in behalf of the good people of Geor gia, to maintain, preserve aud defend the rights and privileges of the free citizens of this State.” Indeed! Can wo read correctly! Have we been asleep, and dreaming all this time that w r e had a Legislature to maintain and defend our rights—a Governor sworn to “preserve, protect and defend” the State? Or has it been reserved for the Athens anci Lexington meetings, to point out to the citizens of Georgia the defenceless situ ation iu which they have been so long placed, without any provision for maintaining and de fending their rights. What have become of the protests of bur Legislature against the Tariff? Has the deliberate opinion of . (he Legislative part of our State Government no weight when express ed upon the merits of the Tariff,'that we must, contrary to the spirit and letter of the constitution of Georgia, appoint another body with Legisla tive powers? The Legislature, and no other bo dy, is the proper organ through which the opi nions of the people with regard to any violation of the Federal Compact, should be expressed. The very basis of the distinction between tlie Fe- 1 deral and Democratic parties is and was the dif ferent interpretations of the words “wo the peo ple of the United States” in the Preamble of the Constitution of tlie U. States. The Federalists contend that they meant the people of the United States collectively. The Democrats, always the advocates of State Rights, contended that “we the people of the United States” meant “the States.” By this convention, which is to lie got up by the people collectively, we could not pre tend to say that we are acting as a single member of tho Confederacy; for it could lay no claim to be the constitutional legislative organ of the .State; as the Constitution of tlie State of Georgia has expressly delegated the Legislative power to the General Assembly consisting of a Senate aril House of Representative?.

The School Masters have said it. !

When Nullification triumphs in j Georgia, then will John C. Calhoun be triuin- ; pliant, for he is identified with it. Georgia is interested in the removal of the Ta- ! riff’ oppression as well as South Carolina.

Iu some coin, ties the Clark party have warmly opposed the expediency of sending Delegates to the propose! Convention to be held in Milledgeville; andia other counties, though they may have madelin!e show of opposition at the time ; they have gen erally given it sin-Mi, a hearty and open disappro val. This w’as the case in Bibb, at the late Anti- Tariff meeting held here. A great many; Chrk men attended it, merely out of curiosity, cot knowing what was a going to be done—ofeev not prepared to approve or oppose, on so slit a notice—therefore determined to take no lot or part in the matter. We have heard of but oi* Clark man who did vote at that meeting; and he with a promptness that does him honor, you! against the resolutions. We understand it has been proposed, as the tiro parties arc about equal in this county, to makes compromise of feeling, and send one delegate from each. We are opposed to this course—ho are opposed to any compromise of principle. Il looks too much like a bargain and sale of office. No. If we conclude to send delegates to thecon- vention at all, let us send them of our own party —if we can. But our own opinion is, that the Clark psrty should have nothing at all to do with the Co vention. As it cannot be a full one—as it ' : not be a fair one—as it will be illegal—as it™ be incompetent to afford any relief—it safer to leave the matter altogether to the D?’ - lature, whose members will be elected at t ? same time, and will be equally well acquainted with the feelings and wishes of the people on the subject. If the Nullifiers want a Convention, let them have one ; but the Union men shouri have nothing to do with it. Let them write/ Convention on their tickets, at the election, w stead of the names of delegates. such a measure as Nullification, she will exercise van wide. During this j discretion and beg to he excused. 7’he fable of Gonrals Alexander and I the FOX with his tail cut off, should lie remem bered. In all constitutional means to got rid of this odious burthen, Georgia would ehei ife.iiv co-operate with “any State;” hut when speech i makers undertake to say that she will uphold | “any State,” no odds how rashly that State may i act, they promise au improbability. \V ith legitimate powers, a convention can oil- ! ly recommend measures for adoption.
