MASS MEETING!
MACON, Ga., July 22, 1850.
A Mass Meeting of the Friends of the Missouri
Compromise, is proposed to be held in this city,
on Thursday, the 22d of August next.
In behalf of the People of Bibb county, who
favor that measure as the best means of protect
ing our rights, saving our honor and preserving
the Union, we most cordially invite our fellow
citizens throughout the State, to unite with us
upon that occasion. The amplest provision will
be made for tht-ir accommodation, and no pains
or expense spared to procure everything for
their comfort and convenience. We expect a
large crowd and shall prepare for it. Let none
stay away through indifference. Let private and
personal considerations yield to the public good.
It is time that the people of Georgia and the
South should assemble en masse , to meet and
maintain the issue which has been forced upon
us. It is time that they should consult and take
measures of defence against assaults, which if,
inopposed, may ultimately end in their destruc
tion. To make successful defence, there must
be union and harmony of action among the
friends of the South. We call upon all classes
and all parties to forget their former differences
and to unite as brethren in one common cause.
“Let our motto be, “THE UNION OF THE
SOUTH FOR THE SAKE OF THE UNION.”
“Let our rivalry and competition be, not about
old party feuds; but who shall most stoutly
stand by the cause of his section and most gal
lantly bear its standard against the common ad
versary.”
The Friends of the Missouri Line, without
distinction of party, are most respectfully invited
to be present; and all others who are for a com
promise honorable to the South—who are for a
division of the Territory, and opposed to any
measure which takes our land to convert into
“Free Soil”—and then takes our money to buy
more for the same purpose.
The People will be addressed by a number of
distinguished gentlemen from this and the ad
joining States, whose names will be announced
in due time.

Southern Meeting.
In accordance with a notice which had been
extensively circulated throughout Russell coun
ty, calling a meeting to appoint delegates to the
next Southern Convention, a large and respecta
ble portion of the citizens of the county assem
bled at the Court House in Crawford.
On motion of the Hon. A. P. Reid, Maj. H.
Moffatt was unanimously requested to preside
over the meeting. Maj. Moffatt having taken
the chair, on motion, Messrs. George C. Alford
and John R. Billups, were appointed Secretaries.
Maj. A. Eiland then moved, that the chair ap
point a committee of nine to propose resolutions
for the consideration of the meeting: where
upon the chair appointed Messrs. A. Eiland,
Dr. R. N. Pearson, Judge A. P. Reid, Maj. James
Phillips, James Buchanan, Hopkins Smith, Jacob
G Lewis, J. G. Woodson and Ralph O. Howard.
The Committee retired, and after a short ab
sence, Maj. Eiland, as Chairman, reported the
following resolutions, and moved their adoption,
to wit:
Ist Resolved ; That we cordially and heartily
approve the Resolutions and Address of the
Nashville Convention, and of their determina
tion to meet again, six weeks after the adjourn
ment of the present session of Congress.
2d. Resolved , That, in pursuance of the re
commendation of the Nashville Convention,
this meeting appoint one Delegate, and an
alternate, to represent Russell county in said
Convention at its next meeting.
3d. Resolved, That the boundary of Texas
was definitely settled, as prescribed in her con
stitution, by the authorities of the U. States and
Mexico,in the Treaty of Guadaloupe Hidalgo.
4th. Resolved, That the establishment of a
military government within the prescribed limits
of Texas, is unauthorized by the Constitution,
and in derogation of the sovereignty of that
State.
sth. Resolved, That if the authorities of the
United States should attempt to inhibit Texas,
in her rightful jurisdiction, within her constitu
tional boundaries, by military force or otherwise,
that we will make common cause with her, and
that it would be the duty oi the whole South to
rally in her defence.
6th. Resolved, That after calm and patient in
vestigation of the self-styled Compromise bill, ot
the Senate’s Committee, we can never yield our
assent thereto; but believe it to be the duty ot
the whole South to resist its provisions ** at all
hazards and to the last extremity.”
7th. Resolved, That we do hereby solemnly
pledge ourselves no longer to be bound by the
ties of party; that we offer all former predilec
tions and prejudices in favor of Whiggery or
Democracy, a willing sacrifice upon the aitar ot
out country, and that our future motto be, the
Union of the South , for the sake of the Union,'’
and all our rights under the Constitution.
After the report of the Committee, Mr. John
G. Shorter, of Barbour, at the request of the
meeting, addressed them, in an ably sustained
argument in favor of the resolutions, and was
frequently interrupted with the hearty applause
of the audience. The closing remarks ot the
gentleman were distinguished for peculiar power
and eloquence.
At the conclusion of Col. Shorter s address,
Mrs. Sayre, of Barbour, was loudly called for,
who respotided in a speech of great power,
forcing conviction upon every unprejudiced
mind, that the Missouri Compromise line was
the only measure which united with it a proba
bility of settling all differences, and-at the same
time preserving the Union, and securing the
rights of the South.
Maj. A. Eiland, as Chairman of the Committee,
then made some remarks in explanation of the
resolutions, and offered some able arguments in
favor of adopting them.
The Hon. Judge Reid then moved the adop
tion of the resolutions, accompanying the motion
with some spirited remarks (which were loudly
applauded) in their favor.
A gentleman, (unknown to the secretaries,)
then opposed the first resolution, approving the
Nashville Address and Resolutions, upon the
ground that it conflicted with the doctrine of non
intervention. He was replied to by Messrs.
Shorter and R. O. Howard; after which the
resolutions were adopted with but three dissent
ing voices.
In accordance with the second resolution, the
chairman appointed Mr. Pierce L. Lewis as
a Delegate to the Nashville Convention, and
Maj. A. Eiland, Alternate

present session of Congress.

Aldridge, P. L. Lewis, Hopkins Smith, Edgar
Garlick, Jacob G. Lewis, A. B. Griffin, Ralph O.
Howard, Owen L. Lewis and R. N. Pearson.

and the city of Columbus, Ga., were requested
to publish the proceedings of the meeting.

WASHINGTON, July 28th.
Ominous Strife in the Senate—State of Confusion
—No Conciliation—Attitude of Texas and the
North—No Purchase of Texas Territory by
the South—A New Amendment—State of the
Question, t \c.
No person who witnessed the proceedings
and altercations, and mutual and but half con
cealed threats of Senators of the United States,
on Friday, could possibly come to the conclusion
that there is any strong element of conciliation
i among them. The elements of strife and dis
cord are apparent, and are gathering for a storm.
There were, in fact, some few mutterings of the
yet distant thunder, and a few vivid flashes
giving token of elemental fury. Those who
said least, and who, in speaking, preserved the
most reserved and quiet tone, are those who
may give the most strength and consistency to
the new systems, political and social, that are in
embryo.
It is no longer doubtful that the Senate is in
a state of confusion which foreshadows future
commotion, and that it presents nothing more
than a type of the feeling of the country. It
may be that the passage of a conciliation bill
would quiet the country, and restore it to a
healthy tone, but I doubt it. It is too late for
s;jch mild remedies; and I am not sure that
the “five wounds” are not past surgery. To
send away the doctors from the suffering patient,
would be the first step towards convalescence;
for then we might reiy, with some hope, upon
the “ vis medieatrix naturae.” As long as Con
gress remains in session, it will wrangle. The
disturbing question met Congress at the be
ginning of the session. It will be with them till
the end of the session. Ido not believe that any
conciliation bill, worthy of the name , will pass
Congress at this session. Where are the signs
of it? The original bill is abandoned by its
friends, and the proposed amendments will
a'ienate as much support as they will conciliate..
It is not to be denied that the great majority
Northern men adhere to the practical exclusion
of slavery from all the new territories. It is not
to be denied that the South will be discontented
with any thing short of an approximation to a
fair division of the acquired territory. It is not
to be denied that Texas, supported by S mthern
sympathies, lias assumed au attitude which the
most liberal of the Northern men cannot approve.
The North would, for the sake of peace, be wil
ling to give her twice as much territory as be
longs to her; to pay her fifteen millions of debt;
and to comply with the obligation of the com
pact of annexation; but they are not likely, in
my opinion, soon to agree that Texas shall be
the sole arbiter of the extent of her claims.
They will not be coerced by menaces, so delib
erately uttered in the Senate, to comply, unre
sistingly, with demands, the justice of which
cannot stand the test of the constituted tribunal,
nor even of a fair and unprejudiced Board of
Commissioners.
One thing more is not to be denied, to wit—
that the Southern ultras will never consent to
tax the South with their share of the fifteen
millions for the purpose of buying from Texas
territory to make a free, runaway nigger State
on the border. So, Mr. Butler, of South Caro'ina,
declares, and I hear from ottier sources, that
the Southern men, of moderate tone, are un
willing that Texas shall sell a foot of territory
south of the parallel of thirty-six thirty.
To-morrow, they say, some new amendment
is to be brought forward that will settle the ques
tion, by conciliating the Texan Senators, who
require merely that the United States should
give them a bond or guaranty that no arrange
ment shall ever be made by which Texas can
possibly be deprived of any territory that she
ever claimed. The prospect may be fair that
such an amendment will be adopted, but I have
some little doubt of it. The Union of this morn
ing reckons without the host.
I would not give much for any bill that passes
without the assent of the Texan Senators; and
not a straw for any bill to which they are likely
to assent. If the original bill could be passed and
with their votes, it would be well.
If the new bill loses their votes, it will not give
quiet to the question, nor peace to the country.
I am led to believe by Mr. Rusk's speech of Fri
day. that no bill which can pass the Senate will
have his vote.
This is the true state of the question at this
time. I am for conciliation; but the elements
out of which it is to be wrought are not present.
We shall see what to-morrow will bring forth;
but men do not often change their skins in a
day. lon.
The Largest-Liberty Men.
At an Abolition Conventicle, composed of Gar
rett Smith, Wm. Goodell and others, who with
drew from the mass of the Liberty party on the
nomination of Joun P. llale for President, re
cently held at Syracuse, New York, the following
resolutions, among others, were adopted:
1. Resolved, That passing events do but deep
en onr conviction, that a sectarian religion is the
greatest hindrance to the deliverance of the
slave.
2. Resolved, That every slaveholding Govern
ment is but a piracy ; and that, hence, if pirates
invade Cuba or South Carolina, Brazil or Geor
gia, there is no more reason why Abolitionist and
believers in righteous civil Governments should
sympatize with the invaded than the invading
pirates.
3. Resolved, That the government is deeply un
just which disfranchises women; which denies
its subjects the right to buy and sell freely what
they please; which permits the sale of intoxica
ting drinks; which consumes the earnings of its
subjects in wars; which tolerates or practices
land monopoly ; which refuses to the accused or
to any party litigant the right of having his cause
tried by judges and jurors, who are not members
of secret societies; or which sanctions or permits
the practice of the matchless crime of slavery.
This is consistency. Those who seek to sub
vert the system ot society, must strike at the
foundations—at Religion, Law, and the Rights of
property.
The only difference between these men and
the Free Soilers, consists in the candor and open
ness with which they avow their ulterior objects.
Both are travelling to the same gaol by different
roads—the former taking the broad highway, the
latter skulking secretly along by paths..—South

ance, Sturgeon, and Whitcomb—22.
Mr. Douglas offered a substitute for the pro

was in order, he would move to strike out of
the bill every thing relating to California. Tex
as had been stricken out, New Mexico was also
out—there were none in the omnibus now but
California and Utah. He considered that the
application of Utah was the only one becoming
in a territory of the United States to make. She
had asked for a government and was willing to
take what we choose to give her. He consider
ed California the heaviest passenger in the om
nibus. There were serious objections to her
admission, and it had been said that she had
been delayed nine months; he would now say
that unless she came into the Union by such a
measure as this, he would vote to delay her nine
years.
Mr. Badger. Forever.
Mr. Atchison. Yes, forever.

The Presiding officer stated the question now

terday) to strike out ail the bill except those

Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, moved to amend

ary of Utah, extending it into the limits defined
in the constitution of California as her bounda
ries.

replied to by Mr. Atchison.
Messrs. Foote and Hale continued the debate.
The ouestion was then taken on the motion
of Mr. Phelps, by yeas and nays, and resulted

Mr. Winthrop said that he rose to a privileged
question. It was to reconsider the vote by which

it relating to California. He had voted in the
negative, which was the prevailing side. He
therefore moved the reconsideration of the vote.
Mr. Mason moved the bill be indefinitely post

After some remarks by Mr. Foote, the motion
for the indefinite postponement was withdrawn.

Mr. Winthrop withdrawing,
M. Berrien moved to strke out the second sec

SAD CONDITION OF MEXICO.
CHOLERA, BANKRUPTCY, BANDITTI, &c.
The Mobile papers have files of the Trait
d'Union, and of the Eeo del Commercio to the
Bth instant, from the city of Mexico, brought by
the steamer Tay. They contain most mourn
ful descriptions of the ravages of the cholera,
depression of business, and financial and politi
cal difficulties. The Trait d'Union says:
“ In the city of Mexico, from the 25th to the
2d of July, the total number of cases has been
2,000; deaths 1,264- It will hence be perceived
that we have had 283 cases of cholera each day,
and of that number 176 have died. We had
hoped that the plague was disappearing, but
within two days past it has recommenced its
work of death, and is more horrible than ever.
“ From the first appearance of the cholera
until the 2d of July, there have been 15,000
cases, and 6,400 deaths.”
Three of the Deputies elected to Congress
had fallen victims to the cholera. On the 7th,
Mr. Thorn, son of the New York millionare, and
husband of the celebrated Signora Barili Thorn,
Italian opera singer, lost his only child, Henriette
Thorn, after ari illness of a few hours.
Private letters say it has disappeared from
Guanajauto, also from Quoretaro. It is now
raging upon the Mexican Gulf. Jalapa, Oriza
ba and Yera Cruz have just entered the fierce
ordeal of suffering and death. The city au
thorities of Vera Cruz have opened hospitals,
and have forbidden the use of vegetable diet,
but the papers persuade the people not to mind
the edict.
The cholera has had a most distressing effect
upon the business affairs of Mexico, and above
all upon Vera Cruz. Many of the merchants
have fled to the country, and a deep gloom rests
upon the market. Very little business was doing.
The political horizon of Mexico seems en
wrapt in clouds. Hope of its future grandeur
is fast deserting the hearts of the people. The
dismissal of Senor Gutierres from his post of
Minister of Finance meets with hearty disappro
bation. He has been replaced for the present by
Senor Lucanza, Minister of Foreign Relations.
Gutierres made some astounding developments
regarding the state of the Treasury. He is said
to have been dismissed because he was too hon
est to become the tool of ambitious men. The
Trait d'Union remarks:
“ The treasury is not oidy empty, but there
are no available means by which it can be filled,
(at least legally filled.) The state of the coun
try arises from the evils which have crept in
and become a part and portion of its system of
government. They must all be changed ere
any permanent good can result to Mexico. 4 ’
The u Siglo 19th,” (19th century,) has along
article entitled “ Approaching Calamities,” which
gives a dark outline of the state of affairs. It
says :
“ War and the plague have been our portion
within the past few years, and now are approach
ing two evils, even more dreadful —famine and
civil war. A multitude ot causes, beyond our
control, occasioned the war. The plague was
sent by God, and by him it will be withdrawn
in his own good time ; but famine and civil war
will soon be upon us. They are the result of
the evils of our systems and the bad manage
ment of the affairs of the country. They may

In Durango the inhabitants are suffering great
ly from the attacks of the Ind’ans. The rancho
of San Luis has been entirely destroyed, and
nine women carried off by the savages. Ten
men were left dead on the ground.
The Governor of Chihuahua has been dis
missed by the Legislature of the State. The
reasons given were the impossibility of any co
operation between the Executive and the Leg
islative powers.
A train of wagons was robbed between Puebla
and Vera Cruz, at Liano Grande, near Rio Frio.
They were attacked by thirty banditti. The
Major Domo was killed, and nearly all the
drivers shared his fate. The robbers then spent
eight hours in selecting their booty. They de
stroyed a number of piano-fortes, and indeed all
merchandize that they could not carry away with
them. The house of Jemison & Cos. had, it is
said, sixty packages of goedsin the train. The
diligence had also been robbed going up from
v era Cruz, and the diligence coining down from
the capital, in which were a company of actors.
The banditti searched them and possessed them
selves of all the gold and silver they had about
their persons. They then selected all their
theatrical dresses, and examined them, uttering
exclamations of delight at their brilliant colors
and tinsel ornaments. Some of the robbers
dressed themselves in them, and really the gold
and silver seemed forgotten in the rapture of
those unusual possessions.
A horrid murder was lately committed in
Puebla. The victim was the honorable Senor
Don Burro. He was killed by his own valet, at
six o’clock in the morning, while all the other
servants were at church at their morning devo
tions. The valet entered the chamber, and
while his master was sleeping, struck him twen
ty-four blows with a knife? He then robbed the
house of all the valuables and tied. He was,
however, taken at night in an inn, where he had
concealed himself.

The following is from the New York Evening Mirror,
May 25,1849.
“Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry.—Among all
the Panaceas advertised for the cure of human ailments
there is none in which we have more confidence than
“Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherrv.” We regard it as
one of Nature’s own preparation;-—simple, safe, pleasant
to take, and almost certain to cure all bilious and pul
monary affections. We have witnessed its wonderful
effects, in cases that were regarded as hopelessly desper
ate, and we can conscientiously recommend it as one of
the best medicines in the world.”
The following is from a very respectable source:
Roston, Nov. 27, 1848.
Mr. S. W. Fowle —Dear Sir. Although averse to
having my name made public in the new.-papers, I make
this unsolicited statement, and you are at liberty to make
use of it as you may picar-e. In the fall of 1847,1 took a
violent cold, which brought on a severe cough that last
j ed through the winter and spring, and caused md to raise
! blood and pleghm continually, day and night, which
greatly reduced me in flesh and strength ; I tried several
kinds of medicine, with little or no effect; I had become
feeble and emaciated, and began to despair ofever getting
I relief, when by advice of my friends, I was ind iced t<*
I try Dr. Wistar’s Wild Cherry Balsam, and after having
| taken five bottles I found my.-elf nearly or quite well,
j and to this alone, I think I owe present existence. I
i shall be happy to give further information to any one
who will call on me.
