rights—our independence—the peace and exis tence of our families, depend upon the issue. The Federal Government has within a few years acquired, by treaty and by triumphant war. vast territories. This has been done by the counsels and arms of all, and the benefits and rights belong alike and equally to all the States. The Federal Government is but the common agent of the States united, and repre sents their conjoined sovereignty over subject in itter granted and defin ‘d in the compact. The authority it exercises over all acquired territory, must, in good faith, be exercised for the equal benefit of all the parties. To prohibit our citizens from settling there with the most Valuable part of our property, is not only de grading to us as equals, but violates our highest constitutional rights. Restrictions and prohibitions against the slave holding States, it would appear, are to be the fixed and settled policy of this Government— and those States that are hereafter to be admit ted into the Federal Union, from their extensive territories, wiii but confirm and increase the power of the majority: and he knows little of history who cannot read our destiny in the fu ture, if we fail to do our duty now, as a free people. We have been harassed and insulted those who ought to have been our brethren, in their constant agitation of a subject vital to us and the peace of our families. We have been out raged by their gross misrepresentations of our moral and social habits, and by the manner in which they have denounced us before the world. We have had our property enticed off and the means of recovery denied us by our co-states in the confederacy. We have been denied our rights in the Territories of the Union, which we were entitled to as political equals under the constitution. Our peace has been endangered by incendiary appeals. The Union, instead of being considered a fraternal bond, has been used as the means of striking at our vital interests. The admission of California, under th cir cumstances of the case, confirms an authorized and revolutionary seizure of the public domain, and the exclusion of near half the States of the Confederacy from equal rights therein—destroys the line of 30-30, which was originally acquiesc ed in as a matter of compromise and peace, and appropriates to the Northern .States 120,000 square miles below that line, and is so gross and palpable a violation of the principles of justice and equality, as to shake our entire confidence in any security to be given by that majority, who are now clothed with power to govern the fu ture d<stin_v of this confederacy. The recent purchase of territory by Congress from Texas 1 as low down as 32 deg. oil the Rio Grande, also indicates that, the boundaries of the slaveholdiug States are fixed, and our doom prescribed, so far as it depends upon the will of a dominant majority, ami nothing now can save us from a degraded destiny but the spirit, of freemen, who know their rights, and are resolv ed to maintain them, be the consequtnces what they may. We have no powers that are binding upon the States we represent. But in order to pro duce system and concerted action, we recom mend the following resolutions, viz.: Resolved, That we have ever cherished, and do now cherish, a cordial attachment to the con stitutional union of the States, and that to pre serve and perpetuate that Union unimpaired, this convention originated and lias n W re assembled. Resolved, That the Union of the States is the union of equal and independent sovereignties, and that the powers delegated to the federal government can be resumed by the several States whenever it may seem to them proper and necessary. Resolved, That all the evils anticipated by the South, and which occasioned this convention to assemble, have been realized by the failure to ex tend the Missouri line of Compromise to the Pacific Ocean —by the admission of California as a State—by the organization of Territorial Governments for Utah and New Mexico with out giving adequate protection to the property of the South—by the dismemberment of Texas —by the abolition of the slave trade, and the emancipation of slaves carried into the District of Columbia for sale. Resolved, That w earnestly recommend to all parties in the slaveholding States, to refuse to g > into or countenance any National Conven tion whose object may be to nominate candi dates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency of the United States under any party denomination whatsoever, until our constitutional rights are seemed. Resolved. That in view of these aggressions and of those threatened and impending, we earnestly recommend to the slaveholding states to meet in a Congress or Convention, to be held at such time and place as the States desiring to he represented may designate, to be composed of double the number of their Senators and Representatives in the Congress of the United States, entrusted with full power and authority to deliberate and act with the view and inten tion of arresting further aggression, and if possi ble of restoring the constitutional rights of the South, and if not, then to provide for their fu ture safety and independence. [From the New York Herald,] The Fugitive Slave Bill—The Late Elections. The Stampede. Os all the measures comprised in the slavery adjustment, the Fugitive slave bill has worked most emphatically in the North. On the day that the bill went through the House, Mr. Clay rose in hi.s place in the Senate, and expressed his congratulations that the measure was finally passed, and that the great work of compromise, only required the abolition of the District slave trade. That bill, also, was at length passed: when Mr. Clay took occasion to express his con victions that peace and harmony would speedi ly be restored to onr bleeding, agitated and dis tracted country. A few Abolitionists in the North, and a few reckless ultras in the South, might, he supposed, attempt to revive the agita tion ; but their efforts would be ridiculous. The ! great masses, of both sections, would be satis- j tied. Harmony would be restored, and the j North aird South, under the same vine and fig i tree, would bury the hatchet, and smoke the \ pipe’ of peace together for a very long time to I conic. Such was the prophecy of Mr. Clay. What j is the fact? The Compromise bills were but j the beginning of the agitation. The fluster, j bluster, bravado, clap-trap, gas, and terrible j threats of Abolitionists and Southern ultras, be fore the settlement, were mere moonshine to what has succeeded. It is just the difference between the manceuverings of two armies be fore an impending war, and the actual guerilla warfare after the first battle is over. All the peace measures of the last Congress only carry us to Buena Vista—the battles of the Southern column of the army have yet to be fought. Tiie Fugitive slave bill may well be called the Buena Vista of the compromise measures. As in the. fight in Mexico, so in the contest in Congress; there were many among the bravest j left upon the field, and many who, deeming u dis cretion the better pari of valor, kept quiet or took to their heels. In the Senate, Colonel Ben son was accidentally absent on the engrossment of the bill: and, owing probably to the “ noise and confusion, ’’ General Cass did not answer to his name. From one cause or other, (and, as far as we are informed, we give the causes,) the following Senators were absent, or dumb, or just stepped out, on the engrossment of the bill, which was the test question : ABSENT, STEITED OUT, OR SOT VOTING. Alabama. —Jeremiah Clemens, tor several yeeks—gone home. Arkansas.— Solon Borland, off in Arkansas, all the session. Florida. —Jackson Morton, absent. Indiana. —Messrs. Bright and Whitcomb. (Bright stepped out, Whitcomb hard of hearing.) Illinois. —Messrs. Douglass and Shields, (ab sent or mum.) Kentucky. —Mr. Clay, absent at Newport, Maine. —Mr. Hamlin, (Free-eoil.) absent # Michigan. —Messrs. Cass and Felch. Mr. Cass was in his seat, but too much “ noise and confusion” to hear his name called- Mr. Felch accidentally missing. Missouri. —Mr. lknton missing; supposed to kave stepped out, Netc Hampshire. —Messrs. Hale and Norris. Hale off home—-Norris no answer. New York.- —Messrs. Dickinson and Seward— paired off, to allow Seward so visit New York. New Jersey. —'Mr. Miller —-gone home. Rhode Island.— Mr. Clarke—gone home. Vermont. —Mr. Phelps—.absent from sickness. Total gone home, absent, stepped out, or not voting, twenty —or exactly one-third of the en tire Senate —on the passage of ths act. But to make the case more clear, we give the ayes and nous, and the missing, &,c. : SENATE VOTE FUGITIVE SLAVE BILL. . ABSENT. OR NOT AX ES. NOES. VOTING, ETC. Atchison, Baldwin, Benton, Badger, Bradbury, Borland, Barnwell, Chase, * Bright, Bell, Cooper, Cass, Berrien, Davis of Mass.,Clemens, Butler, Dayton, Clay, Davis of Miss., Dodge of Wis.,Clarke, Dawson, Greene, Dickinson, Dodge of lowa, Smith, Douglass, Downs, Upham, Felch, Foote, Walker, Hale, Houston, Winthrop—l 2. Hamlin, Hunter, Miller, Jones, Morton, King, Norris, Mangum, Pratt, Mason, Phelps, Pearce, Seward, Rusk, Shields, Sebastian, Whitcomb-20, j Soule, Spruauce, Sturgeon, Turney, Underwood, Wales, Yu lee—27. For the third reading of the Fugitive bill, - 27 Against the bill, - - - - - 12 Absent, stepped out, or not voting, - -20 1 One vacancy from Ohio, - - - - 1 . Total, Senate, (California not then admitted,)6o This vote was ominous of what was to come. The stampede upon it in the House, was also very significant and suspicious. Thirty-five mem bers absent, or just stepped out, (J. B. among them.) or not voting! It was a fugitive bid in more senses than one. Seldom does a single shot create such floundering and fluttering. The Democrats rushed it through the House, to throw the burden on Mr. Fillmore. It puzzled him prodigiously whether to sign or not to sign —to veto or not to veto. He signed. The At- j torney General explained, or rather apologized, for the President, in view of the New York election. Then commenced the re-action. It has been overwhelming; but it has not stopped with the Administration. Cass, Dickinson, Douglass, and all concerned in, or evading or consenting to, the j measure, from the North, have been absolutely 1 overwhelmed in the late elections, except in ! New Jersey and Pennsylvania, where the people j want a modification of the tariff. All prospects j of national platforms and national candidates, ! upon the prop of the Fugitive slave bill, ar* ! shivered into fragments. The very thing which J Mr. Clay considered the cap-sheaf of the Com- j promise, has turned out to be the wooden horse j to the Trojans. Cass, Felch, and Benton, and ! Douglass, and Bright, smelt the rat, or rather the cat; but they have not escaped it. It has turn ed everything upside down, from Cape Cod to the west bank of the Mississippi—from Buffalo to Mason and Dixon’s line—and all the arrange ments, for all the Presidential favorites of all the cliques, of both the old parlies, are scattered belter skelter in this nullification excitement— this fugitive bombshell—this Pandora’s box to the politicians. Mr. Clay was wide of the mark In supposing that the Fugitive bill would end the agitation—it only begins it. Mr. Mason thought it would do no good, except to test the sincerity of the North m their professions of good faith. The test has been applied. It works wonderfully. It has turned Whigs and Democrats into fugitives; and it is difficult to tell whether they or the runaway slaves run the fastest from the law. But there is this difference —the fugitive politicians have been overtaken, while the slaves have generally escaped into Canada. If such is the beginning of the stam pede, what will be the end ? Whig and Demo cratic hunkers—where are they ? their plat forms —their plans—their candidates—their prin ciples—their parties? Swallowed up in the Fugitive bill. Gone! Next Presidency. Baltimore, Nov. 21—10 p. m. The Whigs have nominated Gen. Winfield Scott, as a candidate for the next Presidency. Mr. Clayton approves. “C O M M E R cl A L. COTTON MARKET. COLUMBUS, (GA.) Nov. 27.

Terrill Crawford, in the 33d yeir of his age. It would be unjust to the deceased to consign him to the grave with two cold lines of announcement, and vat we hesitate to speak of him as we would wish.— It is due to him to say that he was a man of excellent heart, that he was noble, generous and confiding; he never cherished a feeling of hatred or ill-will towards any human being, and had happily blended in his compo sition more noble traits of character than often fall to the lot of any one man. In fortune or adversity, he had numerous and devoted friends, and when he died, so far as lie know, he left no enemy behind. With a perfect knowledge that lie must die, he met his fate as becomes a man. NOTICE.
