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 number of representatives from each state : It could not he otherwise.

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.” ARATUS. 05 a ’ The editor of the Chronicle de serves, for the fi‘st time, an answer to his lucubrations : he shall have it. A. •"»*9**“ \\ 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. CKarlzston Courier. (says the Richmond liir’Ji wp nla We understand. ti'; , ,nui r P.rl frotn n sniicrji in mtiu’R wp nlar P reliance, that despatches are to go imme diately from New-York, in the E^rie, commanding Com. Porter to leave Key West. This will be all right, if our go vernment, at the same time, should require Com. Laborde to wait the number of hours allowed by the law of nations for Com. Porter to start ahead. [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. 05 s ’ The friends and acquaint ances of Mr. ISAAC HERBERT and family, are requested to attend his Funeral, this afternoon, at 4 o’clock, from his late residence at the Sand Hills.
