The Legislature.
In the Legislature, Wodncsday, Mr.
Ector of tho Lower House introduced a
hill to assist indigent persous in the sev

tho Inferior Court to purchase bread
stuff's with school funds, and distribute
as they may deom neoessary.
The following bill was passed by the
House, tho same day :
To alter the 11th section of the 12th
division of the penal code, doctoring that
the presence of a Blave iu a tippling house,
between sun set and sun rise or ou the
Sabbath day, shall be evidence of furnish
ing spirituous liquors, and the offender
punished by confinement in the peniten-*
tiary.
There are other proceedings of some
importance which will be notiood in our
next issue.
From the N. O. Picayune, 20th.
Important from Mexico.—Resigna
tion of Mlramon, and Alarm at the
Capital.
The Spanish war steamer Isabel in
Catolica arrived at Havana on (he 18th,
from Vera Crux the sth. She brings the
important, though not unexpected, nows,
that Gen. Miramon had resigned, and
Robles Beteula, formerly Minister to
Washington, bad succeeded him in the
Presidency.
She also reports that the Liberals, wbo
already bold Tacubaya, Guadalupe and
other important posts in the vicinity,
were daily threatening the capital. In
consequence of this, the garrison of
Puebla—numbering some 1000 men and
supported by sevon pieces of artillery
had been withdrawn for the defence of
the city.
Immediately after the withdrawal of
the troops from Puebla, the populace
rose, and armed parties were formed for
their capture, but they were too late in
the pursuit.
These events bad caused great excite
ment and alarm throughout that section
of the country, and at the city of Mex
ico.
Stock Market.
New York, Nov. 22.—There was a
belter feeling in the stock market to-day.
New York Centrals were quoted at 741,
and United States fives of’74 at 97.
I The State Convention.
The bill oalling a Convention of the
people of Georgia, to consider the mode
of resistance to our constitutional viola
tions, has passed both bouses of the Leg
islature. The election of delegates is to
come off on the 2d of January, and tho
Convention is to assemble at Milledgville
on the 17th of the same month.
What shall bo the action of tbe Conven
tion when it assembles ? This is a perti
nent and an important question ; one that
should be deliberately considered in ail
its bearings upon the state of the coun
try, by every man before he makes up bis
mind for whom he will cast his voto to
represent his interest and that of tbe
State and the institutions of the South,
in the proposed Convention. The action
of the Convention is a matter of grave
consideration and should be treated cooly
and calmly. Every voter should act as
though the whole responsibility of tbe
future rested on his action—on bis vote
for delegates to tbe proposed Convention.
It is tbe highest tribunal known to our
Republican system. In its bands we
place all political power—the power to
preserve or destroy our destiny at will.
Then how important is it that every man
should weigh well the importance of his
vote before be deposits it in the ballot
box. The ballot box is more powerful iu
this contest than the sword; should its
action determine rashly, it cannot be un
done. There is no remedy provided.—
Should it be too conservative, there is a
remedy. Tbe government will still stand
and tbe power to right whatever evil it
may entail on us, will still reside in the
power of the ballot box. Another Con
vention can be elected to correct the evils
which this one shall have done. These
facts beiDg admitted—and no one can
truthfully deny them—how important is
it that we shall exercise great caution in
casting our votes. With these prelimi
nary cautions to the voter, we shall pro
coed to give our views as to what the ao
tion of the Convention should be.
For what is the Convention called? No
recent violation of the Constitution has
been committed. Then the question
arises—what has bet n done which has so
wronged end excited our people as to
create a necessity for this assembling of
the State in its sovereign capacity ? A
great wrong has been done. Within tho
last eight years several of tho States of
the Union havo violated the compact
which formed the Union. Their citizens
have not only resisted tho enforcement of
the only constitutional guaranty for the
safety of our peculiar institution, but the
States have enacted statutesforbidding I he
execution of that constitutional provis
ion, making it a high penal offense to do
so. This was submitted to with but a
murmur. Recently, becoming more bold,
these fanaticßhave declared that tbe con
test is between slavo institutions and free
institutions. As they havo grown in
strength, they havo becomo emboldened
and now have been able to reach tbe Pre
sidential chair in their onward march for
power. This has alarmed and excited
our people, as well it might. They say
the march of abolitionism must bo stayed;
that this evil cannot be borne. On the
remedy, there i division of opinion
—some contending that the only rem
edy Is a separation from the Union at
once, whilst others think there is a reme
dy in the Union. In this condition of
things, what is best to be doue ? Let us
reason together, as patriots, and not as
partisans, who were jealous of each other
in a scramble for political power. If we
cannot agree upon a line of action in our
oounty elections for delegates, let us agree
to disagree as to remedies, and in select
ing men to carry out our peculiar views,
seleot those known to be above partisan
biaß and thoroughly identified in inter
est with us—possessing 000 l heads and
Bound judgments. Suoh men when they
meet similar boads from the other one
hundred and thirty-two oounties of the
State, will constitute a body of reason
and wisdom, with whom we are willing
to trust the destinies of Georgia and the
fate of the Union.
Wo eould say much going to show what
placed Lincoln in the Presidential chair,
and prove conclusively that ho does not
owe his cleotioa to the power of numbers
of his own party, but to the divisions on
minor points of policy, intlierauks of his
opponents. This we shall not attempt at
present.” Our purpose now is, if possi
ble, to culmn the distubed elements by
pouring oil on the troubled waters. This
Union, in our opinion, is yet worth pre
serving, and if it can bo done without a
sacrifice of the rights and honor of the
South, wo aro for preserving it. We
believe there aro remedies within the
Union of sufficient strength to cure all
the ills wo complain of. Nothing but
empty resolves have over been attempted
and they have so often been over run
and roceded from, that tbo makers have
become contemptible in the eyes of the
enemy. Let a remedy be tried that can
be felt—something that has more than
mere declaration and sound—something
that touches the pockets of the enemy—
then we will reach their reason and not
before. Some may say this would be a
violation of the spirit of the compact be
tween the States—let it be so; it is to
meet violations of the compact, and is
justified by every principle of right. It
may be urged as an objection, that the
Legislature will not pass such an act. It
may be that the present body will not. It
must be recollected that the present Leg
islature was elected nearly fifteen months
ago, and that the present occupants of
the seats obtained them through other
influences than those now prevailing.—
They are the representatives of certain
political organizations which existed then,
but which have since been obliterated.
The very recommendation of such a poli
cy by the assembled wisdom of the State
in their sovereign capacity, fresh from
the people, will fall like a bomb shell in
the ranks of the enemy, and stay their
onward movements until a Legislature can
be elected that will oarry out the will of
the State. Let Georgia take the initia
tive in the matter, and our word for it,
every slave State will fall into the same
line of resistance, and, as we have before
said, if it does not reform the evil within
a reasonable time, it will convince all that
the disease is incurable—the patient
hopeless, and the ouly hope for the safe
ty of our institutions is out of the Union
—and all will retire in a body.
We have thrown out theso suggestions
for the consideration of our people, not
m a partisan, but as one who lores his
country and American institutions above
all else. We shall oontinue to reason
with our people until the question is de
termined, and if we cannot convince
them that our position is right, and they
determine to over rule us and carry Geor
gia out of the Union, then we will go
with her and sustain her flag against eve
ry peril. I).
Resistance—The Mods and Measure
A Southern Republic.
Edt. Sun: In a late number of your
paper 1 suggested a programme for tbe
action of tbe Southern States. That pro
gramme reduced to its most simple ele
ments, may be condensed into the follow
ing propositions :
Ist. Tbe eight Cotton States shall co
operate and act together—Conventions to
be held in each. By these Conventions
a Southern Congreeß shall be assembled,
representing the eight States. This
Congress to be clothed with power to
Bettle the matter finally. If this Con
gress should declare these States out of
the Union, then their action shall be final
on that issue ; and the same Congress
then shall have the power to establish,
at least, a temporary Southern Confed
eration.
This is the programme for those who
are in earnest and in good faith, seeking
to establish a Southern Republic.
2d. In case tho Congress of the eight
States decide not to go out of the Union
together, then they nre to decide upon
the mode and measure of redress in the
Union —they can suggest a uniform and
efficient code of Retaliatory measures or
any other mode of resistance that they
may agree upon.
This second proposition is for all those
who are for any mode of redress short of
a Southern Confederacy.
I take my stand for the first proposi
tion— A Southern Confederacy ; and
I now address those who say they are for
the same results. You say you are for
secession and a Southern Confederacy ;
I say I am for tho same thing. Now
then, my good friends, how shall we go
to work to briDg about this “consum
mation so devoutly to be wished?” You
say by separate State secession. I say. by
tbe joint co operation and combined aotion
of tbe eight States.
Which plan is most likely to succeed,
yours or mine ? That is tho question.—
You are going to elect your delegates,
and havo your convention act indepen
dently, and without any regard to what
other States may do. You are going to
take each State out of the Union by itsolf,
and then you are going to briDg them
together to consult. But are you sure
yeu can get them to vote themselves out,
each on its own hook? You may believe
so, and you possibly may be right; but
supposo you should be mistaken and
should fail to get votes enough to take
the States out eaoh one b y itself. Such
failure on your plan would he disastrous
iu the extreme—it would be the very
climax of disasters! For even going upon
the supposition that you got one or two
States to vote themselves out of the Un
ion, viz : South Carolina aud Alabama—
suppose Georgia, aud Florida, and Mis
sissippi decide that they will not go out.
What will be your condition ? Those
States that have acted on the issue of
secession, and have decided against it,
will not bo very likely to turn right
round aDd repudiate their own acts and
follow those States that have gone out—
and what sort of a Confederation is this
that you havo formed? Alabama and
South Carolina have formed a Southern
Confederacy! and all the other Southern
States are in tho old Union. Again,
suppose South Carolina alone should go
out and all others vote to stay in, what
sort of a Southern Confederacy have you
in that event ? Still worse than before !
Hut you say, if South Carolina goes out
the Federal government will attempt to
coerce her back; a conflict will take
plaoe, and then the Southern States will
be thrown into a blaze of excitement,
and her gallant sons will rush to the re
lief of South Carolina, and in the midst
of this conflict all the Southern States
will be precipitated out of the Union.
And, my dear sirs, if the Federal gov
ernment should resort to coercion to foroe
South Carolina to submit to Federal au
thority, after she has, by a Convention of
her people, withdrawn from the Union ;
then I believe with you, that the “Min
ute Men” will rush to her assistance,
and those who Btay behind will oheer
them on and bid them God speed, and
will sustain them, and I will aid in the
good cause.
But just suppose on the other hand
that the Federal Government should not
use any coercive measures against South
Caroliua when she goes out—theu, in
suoh au event, what becomes of your pro
gramme? What next will you do ? You
say if South Carolina is allowed to go
peaceably out of the Union, then, cer
tninly, nil the Southern Stptes will follow
her example, because they will then ap
prehend no danger. I say, on the other
hand, that you have blocked tbe game
completely against the other States going
out with South Carolina, because you
have already bad them vote iu Conven
tion that they would not go out, and you
oantiot get them to take it back.
Turn you how to my plan of operations
for one moment. I propose that when
we come to a vote upon the question of
secession, tbe question shall be—shall
the eight ootton States go in a body out
of tho Union and establish a confedera
tion of their own ? Every man when he
votes understands that if he votes for se
cession, he votes for eight States to go out
togethor— he goes not alone !He has eight
great States at bis back ; he has the great
cotton region of the world with him. He
feels safe iu the movemeut, for there is
a great power to back him up and sus
tain him ; and he moves up to the ballot
box, not tremblingly and nervous for fear
of being alone, but with nerve and confi
dence he goes right straight up to the
polls and votes for Secession —not of one
lone State, but a seoession of eight great
States. He knows that this grand seoes
sion that he votes for, will for ever pre
clude the possibility of any attempt at
coercion cn the part of the Federal Gov
ernment ; and who does not know that
thousands upon thousands of men would
vote for this grand scheme of secession
who would not vote for one State to go
by itself? Can Ihe mistaken in suppos
ing that twenty thousand men in Goorgia
alone would vote for my seoession who
would not vote for yours? I verily do
believe that lam correct. Do you blame
that 20,000 voters ? I do not. B'Ao
would vote for Georgia, to day, to go out
of tbe Union by herself if he knew that
no other State would go with him ? But
you say you know that South Carolina
and Alabama will go out. How do you
know it? Is it by consultation with them ?
Have you, indeed, stopped to consult with
other States : and what sort of a consul
tation is it that you have had? Is there
any certainty about the conclusion you
have come to ? Thero is no certainty about
it according to your plan of operations—
acoording to my plan of consultation
there is absolute certainty and no mistake.
But you are precluded from co-opera
lion and consultation ; you repudiate that
mode of action; you are going on your
own responsibility. Aocording to my
plan l get tbe full benefit of cooperation
and consultation when I like the vote.
You, too, consult, but you get none of
the benefits of it in taking the vote.

Gov. Brown’s Special Message-
Executive Department,
Milledgeville, Nov. 20tb, 1860. J
To the General Assembly :
The official returns of the election for
electors to cast the vote of this State for
President and Vice President of the Uni
ted States, held on tho 10th day of this
month, have been received at this office
from ail tbe counties of the State except
the county of Tattnall, whose vote could
not change the result.
I have oaused these returns to be con
solidated and added together, and find
that no one of the tickets, nor any indi
vidual upon any one of the tickets, have
received a majority of all the votes cast
at said election. The act of 23d Decem
ber, 1843, provides in such case that the
General Assembly shall proceed by joint
ballot to the election of electors for Pres
ident and Vice President of the United
States.
It is now ascertained that the Black
Kepublioan party has triumphed over us,
and has elected its candidate for Presi
dent and Vice-President. The vote of
Georgia cannot therefore change or affect
the final result. In this crisis unanimity
of sentiment among the peoplo of this
State is greatly to be desired, and bitter
ness of party strife is greatly to be dep
recated. It is a question, therefore,
worth the consideration of the General
Assembly, whether harmony would not
be promoted and party strife allayed, by
a refusal, on the part of the General As
sembly, to enter into an election, which
can have no practical effect nor in any
way promote the interest of this State.
1 am informed that the Hon. Charles
J. McDonald, one of tho persons voted for
as elector, who received the highest vote
of any person iu the State, is so feeble
that he could not attend and cast the vote
if elected. lam requested, therefore, in
case an election is held, to say to the
General Assembly that ho does not desire
his name used.
