To maintain the integrity of party, forsooth I—

giving up their sacred rights to save their party
frurn dissolution l Shades of ilia immortal heroes
and martyrs, whose Hood was fuured out in the
achievement of oor liberties, revisit the scenes of
your earthly sufferings and Saw your degenerate
descendants from such disgrace! The man who
can coolly talk about surrendering his sacred rights
and tamely submitting to insult and degradation,
•ven for the sake of saving the Union from diaso-
follow sacred as that object should bw in the eyes
of all good men—is a traitor to tbe land that gave
him birth; but when he submits to all this for the
sake of wring a poor, miserable parly from, dissolu
tion, he forfeits all claim to public confikfence;
and tba execrations''of the comji unity, should
—oo heaped upon him,and the ‘‘alow unmoving fingei
of acorn" unceasingly pointed at him, wherever he
may roam.
Although a portion of the preas and people of the
Sooth Ivave evinced a willingness—for tbe sake of
sustaining party —to submit to insult and degrada
tion, we cannot believe that the great massei
the people will thus lamely submit. What do
they csre for party supremacy ? It is now a mat
ter of little consequenco to them—since party con-
testa have degenerated into a contemptible scramble
for the spoils of victory, in which they are allowed
neither part nor lot—what party maintains the
cendancy. But the maintenance of their consti
tutional rights is, to them, a matter of vittf impor
tance. Let them keep in view this great object,
and until the end shall be accomplished, let them
know no party. That this will be the result, when
they are fully aroused, we have no sort of doubt,
and then the conduct of those who have loved
country more than party will he appreciated, and
those who have manifested a willingness
lice the rights ol the South to perpeluato party

an infamy so profound, that the hand of political

That there are gentlemen in the Sontb, as well

reauon have we to believe they will do so
then ? With them might makes right, and give
them tbe power and slavery would bo abolished
to-morrow. This is no mere abstraction, but a
stern reality—and it is now high time that such of
the Southern rsorLz as are determined to main
tain their rights, should speak out in unmistaka
ble language. The press, as we have before
shown, is not a true exponent of the sentiments of
tbe people on this question. We have daily <
dences of this fact. It is controlled to a large
tent by those who, in the language of Mr. Toombs,
are “ among ns, but not of us,” as well as by those
whose necks have been so long ornamented with
party collars as to leave them incapable of uttering
a single independent thought. It ia time that
the people abould speak out and show that -they
esteem country above party—** they most unques
tionably do, and we have no d oubt will clearly de
monstrate to the world.
2. Resolved. That the address and resolutions of
tbe Convention, embodying, as they do, impregna
ble argomont* and constitutional principles, elicit
oor highest approbation; and that we will cheer-
tully, warmly and determinate!/ sustain the con-
nsion at which it arrived.
3. Resolved, That.tbe so-called compromise
of the Committee of Thirteen, whether in its sup
port of tbe fraudulent admission of California into
the Union, or its abolition of the slave trade in tbe
District of Columbia, or its fugitive slave bill, ao

by legislation upon the subject of Slavery within
their limits—or its deceptive schemes of establish
ing territorial governments for Utah and New Mex-

power, in proposing the monstrous scheme of ap

false pretences, the anti-slavery power of the
country, onght not to receive the sanction of a peo

•, and whose safety will be involved ii
summation and adoption.
9. Revolted. That the North has wronged the
Sooth without excuse or justification, and exhib
iting, as yet, iro disposition to relax her aggres
sions, the latter owes it to her honor and her safe
ty, to resist them now “atall hazards, and to the
last extremity.”
10. Resolved, That for the sake of the Union,
and as an oblation upon its altar, to procure peace
and reconciliation between the North and the South,
notwithstanding we believe the Missouri Compro
mise was a great concession on the part of the
South, still we would meet the North upon that
line, with a distinct understanding, that slavery
should have a free and unmolested admission to
the territory South ol it.
11. Resolved, That as a means ol arousing the
people of the South to a lull sense of their danger,
and ol protecting their rights, Associati
Clubs should be formed iu every county of the
State and the South, for the purpose of procuring
unity of action and disseminating light among the
people. . '

The California straggle has not yet commenced
in the House—those who had agreed in caucus to
press the question not having strength enough
inside. He felt the rock giving away, and had bare
ly time to get out And rush to the edge that did not
full, before the immense mass fell.
A gentleman—Mr. Moshier, (of Brooklyn) one
of the owners of the Empire State—with a lady
and the guide, were under the rock, when it com
menced falling. A mass, which Mr. M. judged to
weigh about a too, came down when they deemed
it prudent to retire. They had scarcely been out
two minutes before tbe whole was precipitated in
to tho chasm below.
There has been a 6e«tn opening for some time
past, and .gradually widening, indicating the fall
before the lapse of a very long period. The grad
ual fatliug of the rocks tends strongly to confirm
the theory that tbe cataract has “ worked its way”
np from the mountain ridge at Lewiston to its
present location. And it may be that in “ due
coarse of time” it will be found at the foot of Lake
Erie. With tbe «* progress” made within

The objectorx to tbese rtnufo.'say that the South
is not tbe proper place for Ujcm, hectuse the tim
ber will rot so rapidly, that Jbc road must be re
built in a very short time..
In reply to this/it may be said, that that difficul
ty presented itself at Arst at the North; but expe
rience has shown that the planks wear out long
before they rot. If the decay takes place here soon
er thsn there, tbe difference is very slight, on sc-
count of oor superior timber^.-They commonly use
hemlock or white pine and these are spft and spon
gy and of short duYatioh, compared with,our hard,
compact, resinous, durable pine. Ours, is not so
fat and solid as that in the low country of Soutu
Carolina and Georgia, but for surpasses the North
ern timber in durability, when both are placed in ex
posed situations.
The difference in the climates will probably more
than balance this superiority in our timber; but
much as- to make any material difference in
tbe durability of the roads. There they would
last from to 7 to 10 yeats without entire re
newal, here from 5 to 7 years. It woald be desi
rable to make the tolls so low that in this time they
would be worn out as well as decayed. This dura-
would require an annual expenditure -of about
$100 per mile in repairs. This sum would make
the road perpetual. Tbe total renewal of the tim
bers would require about $420 and tbe labor
$150, and $100 per year would fully meet these
lullsys.
Another objection brought forward against the
access of Plaok Roads in the South is tbe sparse-
less of our population. •
This objection would apply to Canada and Rus-
ia as well as to Georgia, for our population is as
dense as that of several places in Canada where
these roads have succeeded.
But again: this same objection might be urged
against Rail Roads, and yet, it has been found
that the railways of Georgia have been as profitable
’ section of the Union. The Georgi
Rail Road has been more profitable ^than tli
average of the Massachusetts Roads. .If all the rai
ways ia Cfoorgfo, including Stale Jfeadr ybfoh,
has. but recently been completed, be compared with
ill in New England, the comparison is in our fa-
or. With all the prudence, skill and economy ol
Yankee fond in their favor—with their enterprise,
their industry, and their dense population—out
Rail Roads have surpassed theirs in profitable**,
and if so, why notour Plank Roads 7
One reason of oar success is that the cotton we
produce has all to be exported. Most of their pro
ductions are consumed at home or very near home,
No large amount of cotton would indeed be trans
ported over the Clarkesville Plank Road,'b ut still
there would be considerable. There are portions
of Fraoklio near the proposed road which prodi
largely. With tbu opening of good roads
this culture would be extended, until the tolls from
is source would be a handsome source of revenue.
Corn is a heavy article and will Hot bear dis
tant transportation on common roads, but by cheap
ening the cost of transit by means of a Plank
Road, the distance which it can be carried is very
much increased.
These and other considerations that might be
mentioned, will tend to show that our Clarkesville
Road is not so hopeless as an investment as many
seem td believe. To our town—to tbe merchants
and shopkeepers—to the owners of real estate—to
tbe housekeepers—to the' purchasers ol corn and
flour, and apples aud potatoes—the benefits cannot
foil to be large and remunerative,
boldness and enterprise—if we neglect to improve
the opportunities offered us—the grass may gi
businesss treets—our houses may soon be with*
tenants, and our hopes of future prosperity
tirely prostrated. Jrf
