©lßlcnltlc* ana Dangers.
It cannot be truthfully denied that there are
|*aiiy end great difficulties iu the way of a final
and satisfactory adjustment of the impending
troubles between the North and the South. It
were simply the most besotted ignorance, the
wost criminal indifference, which could induce
any to shut their eyes to these difficulties. We
repeat that the difficulties are between the people
of the North and South—not between the South
and the General Government, for we have no
aerious ground of complaint against the Govern
ment. The danger is in the spirit and temper oi
the two sections. And while, just now, the pros
pect of adjustment seems brighter than hereto
fore, it is well ftiat we be careful not to deceive any
one, and not to be deceived ourselves.
Times change, and men withthem. Two weeks
age# we estimated the vote in our January Con
vention as probably IC9 for immediate secession,
to 182 against it. A great change has occurred
since then, and now we have scarcely a doubt that
the immediate secessionists will be defeated at
the January election. We do not believe, from
present indications, th it 140 immediate secession
ists can possibly be elected to the Convention,
unless some great and unforeseen revulsion takes
place. By immediate secessionists we mean those
who are pledged to carry Georgia out ot the
Union as soon as the Convention meets, without
waiiing to make any further attempt at adjust
ment of our troubles. Many of these designed to
take Georgia out by the action of the Legislature,
and to make her the leader in the secession
movement ; but they were defeated by the sober
minded and cautious. Should they be again de
feated by the people on the second day of Janua
ry, it will be indeed a great popular triumph—a
triumph of reason over passion, of prudence over
rashness, of calm reflection over excited preju
dice.
Bdt herein is one of the greatest dangers of the
times—the danger arising from the probable mis.
apprehension of the true state of public sentiment
in Georgia. It is well known that as Georgia
goes, so goes the .South. Calm, self-possessed,
moderate and just, her courso will determine the
course of most of the slaveholding States. For
this cause it is all-important that nobody shall
mistake the position of our Empire State, nobody
here or at the North. It may prove a fatal, an
irretrievably fatal error, should the conservatism
of this State, as it is likely to be manifested in the
January election, be misconstrued into submission,
oi a/lelay designed eventually to lead to submis
sion. We feel it incumbent upon this journal,
which is now, as it has always been, the exponent
and the representative of the prudent, cautious,
reflecting portion of the community—of that class
which is known by its acts as the great conserva
tive body in the State —to state fully and frankly
the danger of imagining that this January election
will exhibit a tripmph of Union for the sake of
the Union.
Nothing can well be farther from the truth.
Georgia will indulge no threats, will use no men
ace, will attempt no bullying. But, relying upon
the righteousness of her cause, the manliness of
her people, the power of her resources, her posi
tion and her renown, she will simply demand that
which is honorable to concede, and accept what
it is honorable to accept. It is beneath her own
dignity, it is impolitic, and it is unjust to her con
federates, to employ gasconade—she will only ask
for justice, for security and for peace—for a final
cessation of slavery agitation, upon terms which
it can be no disgrace to grant, and less than which
wiil be unsatisfactory to her people, hazardous to
her interests, aud dishonoring to her fair name.
She wiil make au eurnest and an honest effort at
adjustment, beseeching her sisters of like interest
to join with her—should her reasonable demands
be granted, she will maint liu the Union of our
fathers, should they be rejected, she will then
take such steps (iu co-operation with her sister
slave States; as may be dictated by Honor, Wis
dom and Patriotism.
Avery large portion of the Northern people,
from various cauaea, social, political, religious,
economic, have become hostile to African slavery.
It may well become them now, in the fi .e of the
great peril that threatens, to reconsider their
opinions, to form clearer conclusions as to the
thing as it actually exists, and juster conclusions
as to their duties as good citizens. For, above
all other things, it is patent this day to every
careful observer that the North regards the Union
os a matter of value do them.,. Regard slavery in
any light you may, it is tt-'4ihatt'ef of : -grjivq/■mo-'-’
ment for yon to* consider, wk
fellow chip, fraUf&iiy*, .and, ‘above r
t though we dislike to appeal’jto such a'sordid mo
tive; do not require you to huffy your.prejudices‘
against that which does nest immediately concern
you, and to do justice to your equals in the Con
federacy.
The name of shivery is perhaps really the most
repugnant thing connected with the institution.
The words slavery, bondage, property iu man,
ara perhaps unpleasant to you; but does it be
come men, sensible men, to allow foolish preju
dices against names, to outweigh the value of
things f Let slavery be repugnant as it may to
you who live afar off, and know nothing of it, the
question now is, forced upon you by your own
folly and wickedness, w ill you sacrifice the value
of the Union to you, will you deny justice to your
confederates, will you continue your maddening
warfare, will you persist in continual harrass,
ment, will you still maintain a position which
makos a whole section uneasy and restless from a
feeling of insecurity, rather than like men con
quer your insane prejudices and do your whole
duty=? We warn you calmly and kindly,
that you retrace your steps—not from fear, for
we scorn to appeal to that—but from a just regard
tcysacred obligations.
And, above all things, we conjure you/ men of
the North, not to mistake Georgia’s * position,
and Georgia's determination. It has been taken
deliberately, and we think wisely ; it will be main
tained firmly and persistently to the end, with all
fha means the Go’d of nature has given us. That
position and determination, sure and unmistak
able, ; s, that we must have equality, justice, fra
ternity, peace, iu (he Union, or we shall, however
reluctantly, bo forced by a sublime sense of the
obligations vie owe ourselves, our children, our
•ivilization, our socil existence, our security and
our happiness, to conquer peace and independence.

The South Carolina Secession Convention treat
ad the address of fifty members of the Georgia
legislature asking delay and co-operation with

■was “merely a letter from sundry persons calling

paper was not even accorded the hone • of being

ADDUESS OF Hon. \V. L. HARRIS,
COMMISSIONER FROM THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI.,
Delivered before the General Assembly of the State
of Georgia , on Monday , Dec. 11th, 1860.
Mr. President, and gentlemen of the Senate and
Mo use oj Representatives of the State of Georgia :
I am profoundly sensible of the delicate and
important duty imposed upon me, by the courtesy
of this public reception.
Under different circumstances, it would have
afforded me great pleasure, as a native Georgian
—reared and educated on her soil—to express to
you fully, the views which prevail in my native
State, in relation to the great irfeasures of deliver
ance and relief from the principles and policy of
the new Administration, which are there in pro-
gress.
I cannot consent, however, upon the very heel
of your arduous aud exciting session, to avail
myself of your respectful courtesy to the State 1
have the honor to represent, as well as your per
sonal kindness to her humble representative, to
prolong the discussion of a subject which, how
ever important aud absorbing, has, doubtless,
been already exhausted in your hearing, by some
of the first'intellccts of your State, if uot of the
nation.
1 beg, therefore, to refer you to the action of
Mississippi—already submitted to your Executive
—to ask for her the sympathy and co-operation
she seeks for the common good, and briefly to
suggest to you some ot the motives which influ
ence her conduct.
I am instructed by the resolution from w hich 1
derive my mission, to inform the State of Geor
gia, that Mississippi has passed an act calling a
convention of her people, “to consider the present
threatening relations of the Northern and South
ern sections of the Confederacy— aggravated by
the recent election of a President, upon priniples
of hostility 10 the States of the South ; aud to ex
press the earnest hope of Mississippi, that this
Stattrwill co-operate w ith her in the adoption of
efficient measures for their common defence and
safety.’’
It will be remembered, that the violation of our
constitutional rights, which lias caused such uni
versal dissatisfaction in the South, is not of re
cent date. Ten years since, this Union was rock
ed from centre io circumference, by the very same
outrages, of which we now complain, only now
“aggravated” by the recent election. Nothing
but her devotion to the Union our Fathers made,
induced the South, then, to yield to a compro
mise, in which Mr. Clay rightly said, we had
yielded everything but our honor. We had then
in Mississippi a warm contest, which finally ended
in reluctant acquiescence iu the Compromise
measures. The North pledged anew her faith to
yield to us our constitutional rights in relation to
slave pronerty. They are now, and have been
ever since “that act, denied to us, until her broken
faith aud impudent threats, had become almost
insufferable before the late election.
There were three candidates presented to the
North by Southern men, all of whom represented
the last degree of conservatism and concession,
which their respective parties were willing to
yield, to appease the fanaticism of the North.—
Some of them were scarcely deemed sound, in the
South, on the slavery question, and none of them
suited our ultra men! And yet the North rejected
them all ; and their united voice, both before and
since their overwhelming triumph in this election,
has been more defiant and more intolerant than
ever before. They have demanded, and now de
mand, equality between the white and negro
races, under our Constitution ; equality in repre
rentation, equality in the right of suffrage, equality
in the honors aud emoluments of office, equality
in the social circle, equality in tne rights ot matri
mony. The cry has been, and now is, “that slave
ry must cease, or American liberty must perish,
that “the success of Black Republicanism is the
triumph of anti-slavery, ’ “a revolution in the
tendencies of the government that must be car
ried out.”
To-day our government stands totally revolu
tionized, m its maiu features, and our Constitu
tion broken arid overturned. The new adminis
tration, w hich has effected this revolution, only
awaits the 4th of March for the inauguration of
the new government, the new principles, and the
new policy, upon the success ol which they have
proclaimed freedom to the slave, but eternal de
gradation for yon and for us.
No revolution was ever more complete, though
bloodless, if you will tamely submit to the destruc
tion of that Constitution and that Union our
fathers made.
Our fathers made this a government for the
white man, rejecting the negro, as an ignorant,
inferior, barbarian race, incapable of self-govern
ment, and not, therefore, eninled to be associated
with the white man upon terms of civil, political,
or social equality.
This new administration comes into power, un
der the solemn pledge to overturn and strike
down this great feature of our Union, without
which it would never have been formed, and to
substitute in its stead their new theory of the uni
versal equality of the black and white races.
Our father.) secured to us, by our Constitution
al Union, now being overturned by this Black Re
publican rule, protection to life, liberty aud
property, ail over the Union, and wherever its
flag was unfurled, whether on land or sea.
Under this wretched, lawless spirit and policy,
now usurping the control of that government,
citizens of the South have been deprived of their
property, and for attempting to seek the redress
promised by the compromise laws, have lost then
liberty and their iffes.
Equality of rights secured to white men, in
equal sovereign States, is among the most promi
nent features of the Constitution under which we
have so long lived.
This equality has been denied us in the South
for years m the common territories, while the
North has virtually distributed them as bounties
to abolition fanatics and foreigners, for their
brigand sen ice in aiding in our exclusion.
Uur Constitution, in unmistakable language,
guarantees the return of our fugitive slaves. Con
gress has recognized her duty in this respect, by
enacting proper laws for the enforcement of this
right.
And yet these laws have been continually nulli
fied, and the solemn pledge of the Compromise of
ISSO, by which the North came under renewed
- oivlgWmns to enforce them, has been faithlessly
■4ifestk&ded, and the government and its officers
-#?et?a®f , detianc3.’'‘‘-

agree in their conventions to unite witn us.
Mississippi seeks no delay—the issue is not new
to her people. They have long and unxiously
watched its approach-—they think it too late, now,
to negotiate more compromises witli bankrupts iu

good faiih and constitutional obligations is the

with me to the grave, when this frail tenement of

and only perish when tyranny shall be no more.
I need not remind your great State, that thou

old colonial domain, though now adopted children
of Mississippi, still cliDg with the fond embrace of

statesmen, from whom boih they aud their adopt

for such to conceive, that they are not still the
objects ct your kind solicitude and maternal sym
pathy.
. Mississippi indulges the most confident expecta
tion and belief, founded on sources of information
she cannot doubt, as well as on the existence of
causes, operating upon them, alike as upon her,
that every other Gulf State will stand by her side
iu defence of the position she is about to assume;
and she would reproach herself, and every Geor
gia son within her limits, would swell with indig
nation, il she hesitated to believe that Georgia,
too, would blend her fate with her natural friends;
her sons and daughters—her neighboring sisters
in the impending struggle.
\V hatever may be the result of your delibera
tions, I beg to assure her from my intimate knowl
edge of the spirit and affections of our people,
that no enemy to her constitutional rights, may
consider his victory won, while a Mississippian
lives to prolong the contest. Sink or swim, live
or die, survive or perish, the part of Mississippi
is chosen, she wilt never submit to the principles
and policy of this Black Republican Administra
tion.
She had rather see the last of her race, men,
women and children, immolated in one common
funeral pile, than see them subjected to the deg
radation of civil, political and social equality with
the negro race.
.Mr. Hartridge from the Joint Select Committee, to
whom was referred the communication of tho
Governor of Mississippi to the Governor of this
State, asks leave to submit the following
REPORT.
Whereas, A large portion of the people of the
non-slaveholding States, have for many years
past, shown in many ways a fanatical spirit bitter
ly hostile to the Southern States, and have
through the instrumentality of iucendiary publi
cations, the pulpit and the newspaper press, final
ly organized a political party for the avowed pur
pose of destroying the institution of slavery, aud
consequently spreading ruin aud desolation among
the people in every portion of the States where it
exists; and,
Whereas, This spirit of fanaticism has allied
itselt with a design long entertained by leading
politicians of the North, to wield the taxing pow
er of the government, for the purpose of protect
ing ami fostering the interests of that section of
the Union, and also, to appropriate the common
territories of the United States to the exclusive
use of northern emigration, for the purpose of
extending, consolidating and rendering that pow
er irreversible.
And whereas, These designs and movements
have attained such ascendancy, as to combine u
large majority of the Northern people in this sec
tional party, which has elected to the Presidencv
and Vice Presidency of the United States, candi
dates who are pledged in the most solemn form
and the-plainest, repeated declarations to wield
all the influence and power of the Federal Gov
ernment to accomplish the objects and purposes
of the party, by which they have been elected.
And whereas, Many of the slaveholding States
are about to assemble in Convention for the pur
pose of adopting measures for the protection of
their rights, and the security of their institutions.
And whereas. The State of Mississippi has, in
a noble spirit of fraternity sent a Commissioner
to communicate to this General Assembly, her
desire in the emergency iu our Federal relations.
Therefore be it,
Resolved, Ist. That the General Assembly of
Georgia, has listened with sentiments of profound
sympathy jmd respect to the message of Missis
sippi, on the subject of the'preseut threatening re
lations of the Northern and Southern sections of
the United .States, communicated by her distin
guished Commissioner, the Hon. William L. Har
ris.
Jo-salved, 2d. That believing as we do, that tho
present crisis in our National affairs demands re
sistance, this General Assembly', at its present
session, has, with great unanimity passed An Act
providing lor the call of a Convention of the peo
ple of Georgia, to assemble on the 16th day of
January, 1861, for the purpose of determining on
the mode, measure and time of that resistance.
Resolved, fid. That we cordially responded to
the patriotic hopes of Mississippi, so earnestly
expressed by her Legislature, and so ably com
municated by her Commissioner, and we hereby
give to our sister State, the confident assurauce,
that in our judgment, Georgia will promptly co
operate with her, in the adoption of efficient mea
sures, for the co union defense, safety, and honor
of tht* South.
Resolved, 4 th. That should any, or all of the
Southern States determine, in the present emer
gency, to withdraw from the Union, and resume
their sovereignty, it is the sense of this General
Assembly, that such seceding States should form
a Confederacy under a republican form of Gov
vernment, aud to that end, they should adopt the
Constitution of the United States, so altered and
amended as to suit the new state of affairs.
Rtsolced, , (It. That Jwe do hereby express our
cordial appreciation ot the dignified and gentle
manly bearing of the Hon. Win. L. Harris, toward
this General Assembly, us well as the satisfactory
manner in which lie has discharged the responsi
ble duties ot his high commission
Resolved further, That His Excellency the Go
vernor be, and he hereby is requested to cause all
the proceedings iu the reception of the Commis
sioner from the State of Mississippi to be enrolled
on parchment, signed by the officers of both
Houses of the General Assembly, and by the Go
vernor, with the Seal of State attached thereto,
and that t he same be presented by him to the Hon.
Wm. 1,. Harris as the response of Georgia to the
friendly greeting of Mississippi.

Chattahoochee Conor.— At a meeting of the
citizens of Chattahoochee county, on the 15th
inst., the committee presented a majority and a
minority report. The majority report wus adopt
ed, and those in favor of the minority report se
ceded from the meeting. The following are the
leading resolutions from the two reports :
Majority Report. —That the* exigency of the
times in regard to National politics, tlie safety
and security of Southern rights and Southern
honor, demands the immediate secession of the
slaveholding States from the Federal Uniou, and
the establishment of a Southern Confederacy by
them.
Minority Report.— That as the Convention, as
stated in the pieamble to the act calling it, was
called lor the purpose of “determining the mode
and manner of resistance,” we are not in favor of
sending delegates who are already committed for
or against secession, we leave that an open ques
tion for the Convention to determine.
•lounson County.—At a meeting of the citizens
of Johnson countj-, on the 11th instant, resolu
tions were unanimously adopted by the meeting,
declaring that the constitutional election of Lin
coln was not a sufficient cause of itself for a dis
solution of the Union, no more than was the elec
tion of James Buchanan. That the passage of
the Personal Liberty laws by some of the North
ern States was a violation of the Constitution,
and that a repeal of these laws should be deman
ded at once. That when Georgia shall have ex
hausted all constitutional means to obtain & re
dress of her present grievances, and fails, then
they (the people) were ready to take “their posi
tion in the vanguard and strike for their rights
out of the Union.

which you have already received. I have been acquainted
with this medicine for many years, and hkve always heard it

restored by it, after other remedies had failed. I have also
used it for myself and children for obstinate coughs and colds,
with an uniform and happy result, and therefore recommend it
confidently as the best lung medicine within my knowledge.
Yours, respectfully, a. Maussenkt,

cure of that most terrible and fatal of all diseases—Fever and
Ague, From our own experience with this valuable specific,
we can safely say, that for diseases of the above nature, i
stands without a rival. Its timely assistance has saved many at
fellow being from a premature grave. Every day we hear of
its conquering the worst cates of Fever and Ague. To those
who are in the least afflicted with auy of the complaints arising
from an irregularity of the digestive organs, nothing can be

perseverance with
BKANDRETH’S PILLS,
which takes all poisons, of whatever nature they may be, from
the circulation.
Mr. John Y. Haight, Supervisor of Newcastle, “Westchester
county, New York, says, Nov., 1868; “I 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 ; I became as yellow as saffron, and reduced to
skin and bone. 31ediclne and physicians were abandoned In
despair. As an experiment, I concluded to try a single dose of
six of Brandeth’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—tiielr purgative eflect was different from anything 1 had
ever used or heard of. At length this eflect ceased, and Is r m
ed lighter and breatlffed freer. That evening I was indeed :tn
slbly better and slept soundly all night. The next day I fol
lowed the same course, and continued to take the Pills In this ;
way about three weeks, when I found myself entirely cured.
Mv health has been surprisingly good over B,nee.”
