nor more than seven delegates. This con
tract did not answer the purposes for which
it was made. Another government was
established which has accomplished the
object the people of the United States had
in view. A congress with two distinct
bodies was established.—A senate, which
was in a great measure a substitute for the
original congress, and a house of repre
sentatives, by which the people were col
lectively represented in the federal gov
ernment. The senate, representing the
states in their independent and sovereign
capacity, was to be composed of an equal

whole that contempt, which both the accusation

those who were engaged in the same scenes. So
true is it, that »he rejection of these resolutions,
which were never intended nor expected to have
been adopted by the mover, was the cause of Mr.

FOR TIIK GEORGIA COURIER.
u Conventionor “ No Convention.”
11 is not creditable to the people of Geor
gia to let their feelings be entirely en
grossed by the next election for Governor,
and to forget the importance of the vote
they will be called upon to give in Octo
ber next, respecting the convocation of a
Convention to amend or alter the State
lales to the representation of the counties
in tho Legislature. The amendment of
the Constitution of a country should be
done only after mature deliberation, and
after the necessity of it has been generally
and particularly felt. That the Consti
tution of Georgia requires amendment,
none can deny ; for many years past I
have entertained the opinion, that not on
ly the apportionment of the representation
of the counties in the Legislature was de
fective, but that the judiciary system re
quited a total revision and alteration. I
am not the advocate of innovations. Iam,
nevertheless^ the friend of wholesome re
forms when they can be timely and judi
ciously made. Perfection is not in human
nature : but we can embellish more and
more. The history of past events and
our own experience are, and ought to be,
our teachers : we can embellish our public
institutions; and,in doing so we do not
destroy. Improvements in all things
ought to be pursued; and in the science
of government man should keep pace with
tke progress of the human understanding
and the daily discoveries that are made
while searching for additional means to
better the condition of the human species.
In republics innovations are sometimes
fatal; but to reform abuses, when gener
ally and sensibly felt, is always attended
with the most beneficial effects. What
answered tho state of society two hundred
years ago, does not suit the present gen
eration, which is more enlightened ; and
what probably we conceive now to be the
acme of human perfection and happiness,
may a hundred years hence be considered
as worthless, and destructive of earthly en
joyments. The Constitution of a State,
however good it may appear to be, may
have some defects which experience only
makes us discover; and is it a reason be
cause me have lived in a comparative state
of happiness under that constitution w’ith
those defects, that we should not endeavor
to repair them, and leave to our children
to repair those which we could not per
ceive ?
It is a fundamental maxim in our feder
ative republic, that the majority must gov
ern, The states are independent and
sovereign ; and considered as such, Dela
ware possesses the same powers as New
York; as in Europe, Sweden, with a popu
lation of only 3,800,000 souls, exercises
the same powers of an independent State,
^ France with a population of 30,000,000.
The st a t es in uniting did not relinquish
their independence and sovereignty in re
gard to each other. They have by the
contract of union, only relinquished a por
tion of their sovereign powers, in order to
promote the interest and welfare of the
contracting parties. The states being in
dependent and sovereign, no regard was
paid, and ought not to have been paid, to
population, when concluding a treatv of
union. But after this union had been
formed, and it was found advisable to es
tablish a federal government upon a more
permanent basis, then population was a
consideration to be embraced in the for
mation of that government. By the ori
ginal contract of union a congress was
sident, to the adoption of a law, or a ma
jority of two thirds without this sanction.
The federal government^as established
by the free will of the people of the Uni
ted States, represented bv the states re
spectively in their sovereign capacity, in
convention. The government of Georgia
was established by the free will of the peo
ple of the state, represented by the coun
ties respectively, as integral parts of an
indivisable, sovereign, and independent
state. The states are independent of each
other, but dependent in some respects on
the federal government. The counties on
the contrary are connected with one ano
ther, and dependent on each other in eve
ry thing concerning the government of the
state. The federal government cannot
pass laws affecting a particular state : the
state government can pass laws affecting a
particular county, and increasing or di
minishing the number of counties. Pro
vided the state remains entire, the popu
lation equally represented in the legisla
ture, and laws passed bv a majority, it
matters not whether the state is composed
of 10 or 65 counties. The state was di
vided in counties for the convenience of
the people, and for the purpose of promo
ting their individual welfare ; for the bet
ter securing to each the enjoyment of civil
and political liberty ; and for the enforc-
A — _—r _j_ 1 J— *
dience to which can be better secured in
small than in large corporate bodies. The
state being composed of integral parts, it
follows that the citizens, of anv of the
counties, are as much interested in the
welfare of the state, and equally entitled
to have a vote in any measure concerning
any one of the counties, because whate
ver affects one county, affects more or loss
the whole body of the commonwealth.—
No opposite interest can naturally exist in
such a community : all the members have
one aim—the attainment of an equal share
of happiness. As the above position can-
fiot be controverted, I shall proceed to
apply it to the exercise of the power of
sovereignty which each individual pos
sesses in the government. "
In such a commonwealth as Georgia, a
majority of the people ought to govern,
because a natural maxim exists, that in all
republics the happiness of a greater num
ber of individuals must have more weight
in the measures of the government, than
the happiness of a lesser number, should
such an issue have to^be determined bv
the sovereign power. The people of the
State of Georgia, divided in counties, hav
ing no opposite interest, in regard to their
respective counties, must be proportiona
lly represented. If this is not the case,
it may happen that in the enactment of
laws a minority of the people will exercise
the sovereign power, contrary to the es
tablished maxim, that a majority should
govern, by a disproportion in the repre
sentation, if the small counties have an
equal number of senators and an undue
proportion of representatives. A propor
tional number of senators and representa
tives, according to population, was consid
ered by Mr. Jefferson as of great import
ance, and necessary to ensure the enjoy
ment of all civil and political rights. In
his notes on Virginia, he says, “ That a
majority of the men in the state, [Virginia]
who pay and fight for its support are unre
presented in the legislature, the roll of
freeholders entitled to vote not including
generally the half of those on the militia
or of the tax gatherers. In another pas
sage he says, “ Among those who share
the representation, the shares are very
unequal. Thus the county of Warwick
with only one hundred fighting men, has
an equal representation with the county
of Loudon, which has 1746, so that every
man in Warwick has as much influence in
the government as seventeen men in Lou
don.” What are we to infer from the re
marks of Mr. Jofferson on the constitution
of Virginia?—that the people of that
state are not as proportionably represented
in the legislature as they ought to have
been. So it is in the State of Georgia.—
It can be said that the representation of
Georgia is agreeebly to the constitution
now in force. I acknowledge tho fact;
and I must submit to it because it was the
will of the peopie, legally assembled by
delegates in convention. But though this
act of submission is willingly granted, iu
the relation every citizen has with the
constitution, yet this citizen has the privi
lege to declare his opinion in respect to it,
when that instrument, in some of its pro-
visions, does not accord with the genuine 1 r NfOTIPE
principles of democracy^ upon which the rjYHE sub. criberVaki tto mtfhod of inform-
HALL A HARDIN.
public institutions of the country are
founded.
In some states a division has been made
in senatorial districts, according to the
population of those states, besides an ap
portionment of representatives according
to that population. Why would not the
same plan be adopted in this state? I
hope I have ^aid enough to convince my
readers, that, according to the democratic
principles, the people are not proportion
ably represented in the legislature of this
state, and that a small number of inhabit
ants have as much influence, in the gov
ernment as the greatest number, by the
enjoyment of a disproportionate share of
representation.
I shall certainly put on the back of my
ticket next October, “ Convention.”

\\ e extract the following 1 just observa ions from
the editorial matter of the Constitutionalist of
the 7 inst.
Mr. Clay’s Speech, at the Lexington
Dinner, is now going the rounds, and a
very fine and ingenious Speech it is.—
\V hat may be its effects upon others, we
pretend not to say—but it confirms our
belief that there was no bargain between
Mr. Adams and himself when he became
Secretary of State. That Mr. Clay ex
pected the office to be tendered to him when
he voted for Mr. Adams is probable e-
nough—his talents and eminence, vanity
apart, authorised such an expectation, and
it is likely he would have indulged it,had
his vote and influence been given to Mr.
Crawford or Gen. Jackson. We are not
friendly to the Administration, but we
would dojustice both to the President and
his Secretary—we do not believe that ei
ther the one or the other would descend to
drive a corrupt bargain for power. The
error actually committed is one of minor
importance—it lies in the acceptance of
office by Mr. Clay, under circumstances
calculated to beget suspicions of his puri
ty, and to do great injury to his character
for disinterestedness ; it was his duty for
the sake of himself—of his country—to
look to his reputation with as much cau
tion as Caesar did to that of his wife. He
thought proper, however, in despite of
circumstances to take office, and he is
blameable, not as a corrupt man—not as
’f“t>ne who sold his vote—but as a very am
bitious man, who was willing to run the
risk of tarnishing his fame for tho grati
fication of his love of place and honors.
A meeting of subscribers to a public
dinner to be given to Com. Porter, was
held at New-Orleans, on the 23d nit.

[City Gazette.
Important from Cathagena.-— Captain
Beach, who arrived here a few days since
from Santa Martha; a passenger in the
brig Osprey, informs, that a little before
he left that place ne vs was received from
Carthagena of a declaration made bv the
troops in the Garrison, in favor of Boli
var and against the general government of
Colombia. This occurred late in the
month of June when the arrival of Boli
var was daily expected at Carthagena.—
For some time previously, the soldiery
there had been kept on the alert, sleeping
on their arms every night, with their guns
shotted. Gen. Montilla had sent off a
captain to Santa Martha for having spoken
in favor of the congress ; & afterwards or
dered him back again to Carthagena, whi
ther he was taken, and on attempting to
escape, was put in irons. This was on
the 26th of June &, the next mail brought
to St. Martha the news that the troops
had declared against the Congress.
The two transport ships from Laguayra
had passed on for Carthagena. One of
them was sent on shore with the real in
tention of ascertaining the feelings of the
troops at St. Martha which are in favour
of the Congress. One hundred men had
been ordered from St. M. for La Hache
to divide them.
