<%onick & Sentinel _ - PUBLISHED DAILY AND WEEKLY, BY W. S. JONES. . SATURDAY MOBN’C, DEC. 8, 1860. 1> Form of Government. Now that we are aboiit to break up the present l'orin of government, it is well that we look to the future, and commence now to make arrange ments,for some other form. We hear it on all Miles that the present Federative system is a total failure—not a failure in itself, from inherent delects of its own, but the failure is in the peo ple—the government does not suit the people, or the people do not suit the government. There is somewhere an “ irrepressible conflict” going on between the governors and governed. The sys tem of several Republics, confederated together under one common head, governed by a written law, we say, is that which is generally considered a failure. For we see, contrary to the spirit and intent of the Union, a minority party—clearly in a minority of at least three-quarters of a million— nas, by the peculiar arrangement for electing the Chief Magistrate, succeeded in electing n Presi dent, by one section alone, against a combined opposition in the other section, and against a a powerful minority in its own stronghold. Rut if the Federal sysiem is a failure, the ques tion may well be asked, is not the whole Republi can system a failure? Very many wise, thinking men say so. We formed the Federal Government because the separate States, it was thought, were not strong enough to stand alone, and because they were likely to prove disadvantageous, if not dangerous, each to the other, in their distinct or ganization, and with their varying interests When we break up, will the disadvantages and dangers of separate States be such as to require the formation of anew Confederacy of those which are, at present, supposed to be homogeneous? If we do form anew Confederacy, when the old is gone, it would seem to be neither wise, prudent, nor statesmanlike, to frame it the pattern of flic old. New safeguards and guarantees must necessarily be required, and none but a heedless, maniac would seek to avoid looking this matter squarely in the face. What are the defects of the present Federal • system? Why, the chance of a minority being able, by the forms of law, to secure the Executive, and the different interests of different sections urging one or another to attempt supreme con trol, regardless of equality, of justice, of comity, . r.d of the written Constitution. Can a Constitu iion he a safe guard for minorities? Certainly it maybe; but history proves that *no Constitution ever stood in the way of either real or apparent majorities. It is a simple impossibility, when the passions of the majority ure stronger than their i egard for the right. We might change the Con stitution for the New Confederacy, so as to make the Executive elective directly by the whole peo ple, and thus avoid its attainment bj’ a popular minority. Rut can the Constitution he so framed as to prevent a majority, when it becomes an ab solute majority, making its null the rule for the minority? Never. It is true that we might make a Constitution for the fifteen Southern States, which would se cure the rights of all, at present, from harm, or at least, which would require a clear violation, of its Utter , so plainly that the world could discern it, when unconstitutional action was consummated. Rut then, in the course of years, as men changed, times changed, interests changed, business changed, labor changed, productions changed, a violation ot the spirit might occur, which would not he clearly a violation of the letter. It may he raid that the Constitution might provide for its own change, as times changed. Well, that was the design when our present Constitution was formed, and still we say it is a failure. llow more carefully could anew one he arranged? Men will say that we, of the South, are one, and that we shall get along well enough. Rut they who s:ty it know neither history nor human nature. — When the* Union was formed, twelve 6f the thir teen States were slaveholdiug; and if the Cotton Gin had not been invented there would not prob ably to-day have been an African slave in North A m erica. Rut, how about the State organizations ? This is an important consideration, for whether we consult with the other Southern States or not, it is certain that each State must act for itself, in the first instance. When any State goes out of tiie present Federal Union it then becomes a for eijn power, as to all the other States, as well as to the world. Whether it will unite again with any of the States, or stand alone, is for it to <le- UTiniue. The new Confederacy must then he motile by those States which desire it—and it Georgia, or any other State, does net find the pro posed terms of Federation agreeable, she can maintain her own separate form of Government, or, at least, try it. Well, what form of govern ment shall we have ? This is much more easily asked than answered. Some of the wisest and best citizens propose a hereditary Constitutional monarchy ; hut how ever good that may be in itself, the most impor-’ f mt point to discover is, whether or not the peo ple are prepared for it. It iS thought again by others that wejshall be able to go on for a genera tion or two, in anew Confederacy, with addition al safe guards—such for instance as an Executive tor life , a vastly restricted suffrage, Senators elec ted for life, or for a long period, say twenty-one ■ ; part, and the most popular branch of the assem bly elected for seven years, the Judiciary absolute ly independent, and for life, or good behavior. The frequency of elections, find the universality of suffrage, with the attendant arousing of the ueople’s passions, and the necessary sequence of demagogues being elevated to high station, are thought by many to be the great causes of trouble among us. We throw out these suggestions that the people may think of them, and act as their interests require. Our own opinion is that the South might be the greatest nation on the earth, and might maintain, Jon the basis of African slavery, not only a splendid Government, but a .'■.■cure Republican, Government. Hut still our ft-ars are that through anarchy we shall reach the despotism of military chieftains, and finally e raised again to monarchy. Old W ilkes in the Lead ! Pursuant to previous notice, the citizens of Wilkes countv, irrespective of party, assembled in the Court House on the 4th inst., to nominate c indidates for delegates to represent them in the State Convention to be helu at Milledgeville on the 16th of January next. The meeting was organized by the appointment of Jas. H. Willis, Esq., Chairman, and Garnett Andrews, Jr., Secretary. On motion the Chair appointed a Committee, consisting of the following gentlemen, to suggest the names of suitable candidates: Committee.— Dr. J. J. Robertson, W. R. Calla * way, Or. T. L. Anderson, J. B. Wootten, Jas. Ar nold, Wm. A. Pope, Dr. G. W. Palmer, Frank \mold,Bam’! Harnett, J.D. Willis, (absent,) A. T. Holliday, M. G. Robert, J. M. Dyson, Dr. Jno. W. Heard, Or. H. F. Andrews, W. G. Turner, Or. W. I). Quinn, and Or. W. M. Jordan. This selection was made indiscriminately from all three of the lute parties. After a brief consultation the Committee report ed the names of the following gentlemen, (Hon. Robert Toombs and Dr. J. J. Robertson.) The report was unanimously ratified with en thusiastic cheering and applause. In response to loud calls from all parts of the house, the following speakers then addressed the meeting : Samuel Barnett, Esq., Rev. Thus. Lane, 01.V1a., Col. B. W. Garnett Andrews, Jr. The speeches of Messrs. Harnett, Lane and An drews, were for uncompromising secession, that of Col. Heard was very strongly “Southern i.’ -hts.” The speech of Mr. Lane was a master piece of eloquence and reasoning ; that of Mr. Harnett was characterized by eloquence and irresistible logic—it carried conviction to the minds of all who heard it. On motion, Resolved, That these proceedings be published in the Washington Independent and all of the Augusta papers. The meeting then adjourned in perfect good feeling, unanimity and enthusiasm.

Hie leading of the President’s Message was commenced at ten minutes past 12 o’clock, and was finished at seven minutes past 2. u lr ’ , cii . n £ man moved that it be published. He thought it fell short of an investigation of the crisis before the Government. The President elect was known to be a dangerous man because he owned the principles of the “irrepressible coil tiict. party, with the view of making war on my section. Though the present position of parties in Congress held him powerless, his party would eventually control the Government, the Supreme Court included. A sectional majority absolutely has control of the whole Government, and it might aegin a revolution. lie did not think any of the Southern States had acted precipitately. If such occurrences as have taken place in the last fifteen years had been with a foreign nation, we would have been at war before this. In his judgment a number of the Southern States would seoede with in sixty days. The South Carolina submission party was small. The wisest thing that Congress could do would be to divide the public property as fairly as possi ble, after paying the public debts. My people arc not terrified. We have more territory now than the Colonies who began the war with Great Britain. We have lour times their population. Our imports last year amounted to $30,000,000. Northern gentlemen say our institutions are a dis grace to the family, and they want to have them removed. They say it is a sin to hold slaves. If we separate, their consciences will be clear. He agreed with the President, that there is no power in the government to force a State to remain in the Union. The most offensive aggression would be to levy tribute, and if a separation takes place all the slave States would be quiet and peaceable. They were carrying out the policy of the fathers of the Revolution. Mr. Crittenden replied that he had hoped they had come together as a union of friends. lie hoped, for himself, that the Union he has so long lived under would he preserved. lie rose for the purpose of expressing a hope that the example of the gentleman from North Carolina would not be followed. Better not come here at all than thus act. This Union was worthy of great sacrifices and concessions. He looked forward with dismay at the prospect of disunion ; with fear and trem bling. They must search for the means of recon ciliation and endeavor to restore harmony, lie did hope there would he no angry debates. North Carolina had always carried the olive branch of peace. Mr. Clingman approved the desire expressed to preserve the Union: lie would be sustained in what he has said by a majority of the people of his State. North Carolina was next to the last of the original thirteen States to come into the Un ion. and when the Union ceased to protect her she will hid it good-bye. HOUSE. The Message having been read, Mr. Sherman moved that it he referred to the Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union. Supposing that there was no desire to debate to-day he moved the previous question. Mr. Roteler offered the following, trusting, he said, that it would meet the approbation of the House: JitvolveJ. That so much of the President’s Mes sage as relates to the present perilous condition of the country he referred to a Special Committee of one from each State, witli leave to report at any time. Mr. McClernand wished to move an amend ment, and amid repeated calls it was read, as fol lows : liesolred, That so much of the President’s An nual Message as relates to matters of grievance between the slaveholding States; and the propo sal by Congress of amendments to the Constitu tion of the United States for the ratification of the several States', and to the question of State secession from the Federal Union, be referred to a Select Committee, to consist of one from each State, to he appointed by the Speaker, and that such Committee be instructed to inquire into and report by hill, or by proposing an amendment or amendments to the Constitution of the United States, or otherwise, upon such subject, and par ticularly whether any further legislation or amendment to the Constitution is necessary to give prompt, certain, and full effect to the last cause of the second section of the fourth article of the Constitution, concerning the return of fugitives from service or labor. Mr. Morris, of Illinois, wished to offer an amend ment, which he read for information, as ‘follows: liesolred. That we are unalterably and immov ably attached to the Union of the Stales ; that we recognize in the Union the primary cause of our present greatness and prosperity as a nation, and have as yet seen nothing, either in the election of Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency, or from any other source, to justify its dissolution; and that we pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor to maintain it. Objection was made, Mr. Roteler’s resolution being distinctively before the House. (Cries of “no, no.” “That is contrary to the rules.” | Mr. Rankle suggested that instead of the words “perilous state of the country,” that Mr. Roteler incorporate in his resolution the language con tained ii Mr. McClernand’s proposition, so that the House niijßit specially know what’is to be re ferred to the Committee. The question was taken on agreeing to Mr. Boteler’s resolution as an amendment to Mr. Sherman’s motion. Before the vote was announced Mr. Singleton, of Mississippi, said he declined voting on this question because the Legislature of his State had called a Convention to consider the matter. He believed that the people would determine it for themselves.- Mr. Jones, of Georgia, remarked that his rea son for not voting was that his State had also called a Convention to decide as to her Federal relations, and did not want Congress to decide for her. Mr. Hawkins, of Florida, said his State had ap pointed some day in January for a State Conven tion, to take into cons ideration this very question. The people of Florida had decided to settle in Convention the time, manner and mode of re dress. It was for them, and they will settle this question in their sovereign capacity. It was not for him, therefore, to take any action here upon the subject. He was against all compromise now, as he was in times past. Mr. Clopton, of Alabama, also declined to vote, because Ins State had called a Convention. Mr. Gartrell, of Georgia, said he did not rise to debate, hut simply to say, for a similar reason as just assigned, he declined voting for this propo sition. Mr. Houston, of Alabama, said he would do all he could to accomplish great ends for the coun try ; and as this resolution was directed to such a purpose he should vote for it. Mr. Curry, of Alabama, next addressed the Chair. The Speaker inquired—Does the gentleman de sire to vote. Mr. Curry—No, sir. 1 wish to say— The Speaker, interrupting—Objection has been made to debate. Mr. Curry—l was present when my name was called, and— Mr. Millson, at this point, objected to all discus sion, because it was out of order. Mr. Curry, resuming his seat, remarked—l never violate the rules of the House. Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, wished to say that the Rresident’s Message has to he referred some where, and therefore he favored u Select Com mittee. Mr. Moore, of Alabama, said the reason given by bis colleague (Mr. Clopton) tor not voting, was the same why be would not vote. Mr. Cobb, of Alabama, remarked that the rea sons assigned by his colleagues were not power ful enough for him, so be would bang on to bis vote in favor of the resolution. [Laughter.] Mr. Miles, of South Carolina, said his State was out of the Confederacy, except the mere form, and therefore her delegation took no inte rest in this question. [This remark was received with marked good humor.] Mr. Pugh, of Alabama, said, that as his State was going to follow South Carolina on the 10th of January, he would, like Mr, Miles, decline to vote. The result, the adoption of Mr. Boteler’s resolution, was then announced as follows: Yeas f4s—nays 38. The ilouse agreed to Mr. Sherman’s original motion that the Message be referred to the Com mittee of the Whole on the Stute of the Union, and be printed, together with Mr. Boteler’s amendment thereto, namely : That so much of it as relates to the perilous condition of the country be referred to a Select Committee of one from each State. No question was taken on any other proposition than the one above mentioned. Mr. Boteler wished to say one word. He knew it was the universal custoni of the Ilouse for the Speaker to appoint as chairman the mover of a proposition for a select committee. He wished it understood, in justice to himself and to the great objects be bad in view, that he could not serve on the committee. He had no idea of it. Mr. Morris, of Illinois, asked leave to introduce his resolution (above printed) as u separate and independent proposition. Mr. Rullin, of North Carolina, and others, strenuously objected to the introduction of the resolution. Mr. Morris hoped that the objections would be withdrawn so as to come to a direct vote. The resolution was agaid read. Mr. Phelps objected to its introduction, and moved an adjournment, which was carried. A Goon Suggestion.— *A correspondent of the National Intelligencer suggests that a commission of six of the besi men of the country be appointed to visit the South Carolina Convention and en deavor to bring about some form of settlement of the troubles between tba North and the South. He says: —“General Winfield Scott, Edward Ev erett., of Massachuseits, James T. Brady, of New York ; William C. Rives, of Virginia ; D. W. Voorhees, of Indiana ; Dr. William 11. Mercer, of Louisiana, and Alexander H. Stephens, of Geor gia, would conciliate the authorities and the peo ple of South Carolina ; command their respectful treatment and consideration ; ensrue the whole some intluence of the sober second thought of the entire South, and restore hope, confidence and amity to the whole country. Tub Sticking Point. —This point seems, at last, to have been reached, in anew invention known as Spalding’s Prepared Glue, which, by simple application, without heatiog or preparation of any kind, re unites the fragments of almost anything into a perfect whole. This glue is really a valua ble iuventiou, aud, from its utility, must come into as extensive and general use as the friction match.— Commercial Bulletin, Boston,.Oct. 15.

No medicine existed which could speedily, permanently, ef fectually and radically cure and expel these diseases from the system until Dr. Green made known his discovery of the OXY GENATED BITTERS. Such is its remarkable power and peculiarity, that cases which for years have baffled the most potent medicine and the highest professional skill, yield to this remedy as readily as if the disease were but of a day’s standing. For all diseases of the Stomach and digestive organs, ami for General Debility it is equally salutary and certain. [From W. A. Harp, Esq., Editor of the Covington (Oa.) Times.] Covinoton, April 7,1860. Messrs. S. W. Fowle &Cos Gentlemen: Having derived benefit from the use of the Oxygenated Bitters, I am glad to do the public a favor by recommending them. For Dyspepsia and its attendant evils, I consider it a remedy of inestimable value. W. A. llaiu*. Hon. Wm. VV. Lamb, formerly Mayor of Norfolk, Va., has just rendered the following testimony of the reeults produced by the use of the Oxygenated Bitters: Messrs. Seth W.

Haight, Supervisor of Newcastle, Westchester county, New York, says, Nov., 1868 : “1 was two years ago attacked with Fever and Ague, which, notwithstanding the best medical advice, continued sorely to afflict me for six tedi ous months; 1 became as yellow as saffron, and reduced to skin and bone. Medicine and physicians were abandoned in despair. As an experiment, I concluded to try a single dose of six of Brandetb’s Universal Vegetable Pills, on an empty stomach, early in the morning. The first dose seemed to arouse all the latent energies of my exhausted frame. I feared the worst—their purgative eflect was different from anything l had ever used or heard of. At length this effect ceased, and 1 set in ed lighter and breathed freer. That evening I was indeed ten sibly better and slept soundly all night. The next day 1 fol lowed tli same course, and continued to take the Pills in this way about three weeks, when I found myself entirely cutcd. My health has been surprisingly good ever since.” Price 25 cents per box. Ssld by all respectable dealers in medicine. decldxwlm NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. BARBER’S WEEKLY BUDGET.
