Cass for the next Presidency. A New State.—The Green Bay Advocate says that the people of the “Upper Peninsula” of Michi gan are agitating the project of a separation from the State,nud the formation of a new State. Col. Fremont's Bill, restricting the work ing of the Cnlilornia gold mines to American citi zens, was so modified as to embrace Euiopeans who may huve declared their intentions to become citizens.

The vessel was gaily decorated with flags, and when she left the wharf 08 saluted by a gun from the Crescent City, nenr by. As much as $7 was paid for passage on board with her.

J 1, Purchase or Steamers by Spain.—A corres pondent of the New-York Sun, writing from Ha vana under date of Sept. 17th, says the agent of the Spanish Government in England, has contracted with Mr. Cunard for the purchase of the steamers Caledonia and Hibernia, formerly of the line be tween Boston and Liverpool, and that the sum agreed upon for both is $350,000 cash. The same writer says:— “The Spanish Government is sending out new of ficers from Spain, utter strangely in Cuba, and re calling these now here, as fast as possible. The Gov ernment is in fear and trembling at the expectation of a new invasion o* the Island. They have every reusouto believe that an attempt at revolution is to be made by the pimple, and hence thei r hoate tti send In stranger* to rule them, lest the officers now here should tratemize with the people and help the move ment." Response to the Republlenii—Onr “Posi tion Defined.” The editor of the Republican manifests a lively anx iety Slat wtr should define our position on the great and itnl question now agitating the Southern people. Indisposition and press of business must ho our ex cuse for not before responding to his invitation. We have not the slightest hesitancy in declaring our opin ions, and had we deemed them of as much import ance as our cotemfibrovy seems tonttnch to them, wc would,perhaps, have spared him the anxiety which he has felt for their disclosure. We have always supposed that our renders under stood us to be in favor of the rights and equality of the South,.in the Union, rnui for the union of tire South for the preservation of tlmt equality, by which only, the union of the States can be preserved. Wo have believed with Mr. Berrien, our able and distin guished Senator:— "That political equality is indispensable to our posi tion in the Union. Its obtainment should be the cheat heading principle of ouit politi cal ACTION. AND EVEUY PATRIOT GEORGIAN, UN DER WHATEVER PAKTY BANNER HE MAY HAVE BEEN HERETOF -RE RANGED, SHOULD RALLY TO THE 8TANDARD OF A GREAT AND UNITED SOUTH ERN Republican party, whose motto should be Equality of Rights, under our constitution al BOND OF UNION, AND DETERMINED RESIST ANCE TO ALL WHO OPPOSE THEM." This truly patriotic sentiment of Mr. Berrien, whom our cotemporary will not, we trust, venture to brand as a disunionist, expresses our own views in regard to the true policy to he pursued by the South iu the present emergency. In this there is neither disunion, secession, nor nrm-iritcrcour-e. The most thut is declared is resistance to wrong, which the edi tor aumita has been perpetrated. If disunion is to follow proper c nstitutiunul resistance to wrong, on the put t of the Southern people, then let tire respon sibility of it rest upon the wruug-doers, aud not upuu the South. Short of buse, dishonorable sub mission, the South coul-i not prevent the calamity.— Docs tlie editor of the Republican counsel such a course 1 But it is to tlie convention that the editor would huve us speak. In one of his urticles demanding our views on this subject he says: We ask him. therefore, to say what he would have the Convention to do—what remedy he would have it to adopt I Will he inform us whether he is in fa vor of u dissolution of the Union, or secession, or non-intercourse, or eome other “mode and measure ot redress, ’ and what it is f It is easy enough to say that he will sustain the action of the Convention ; hut the question is, what action does our cotemporary de sire the Conveutiun to take ? The Editor, in his overweening desire to pre serve his party affinities with the North, regardless of all consequences to his own section, seems to have taken up the idea thut there is no alternative for the Suuth. but that of submission or disunion—that she must either assume the character of the iamb or the lion. Huving admitted, as he frequently bus, that the South has been wronged by the legislative action of Congress, it seems never to occur to him that the same Congress that perpetrated the wrong has the power lo redress it. Hence, he opposes the Conven tion in direct contraventidu to the solemnly enacted law of his own State;—labors to divide and distract tlie sentiment of cur people, and stigmatises all who do not submit, without a murmur, t > the encroach ment of the Northern majority, as disunionists and disorganizes. Now, the difference between us and ourcotempo- raryisthia;—we believe tlmt by union and concert of action (Constitutional action) on tlie part of the people of the Southern States, the wrongs of the South may yet be redressed, and her rights secured lor the iuture; while we believe that discord und division among ourselves will invite further aggres sion from our enemies, and ultimately bring about disunion and anarchy, or a state of helplessness nnd degradation, from which evils will flow even more deplorable to the white inhabitants of the Southern States than disunion, with its most dreaded conse quences. Honestly holding these opinions, and un biassed and uninfluenced by parly predilections, we arn in favor of the Convention which has just been called by our State Executive. We desire to see in that Convention the people of Georgia of all part .es and of all skades of opinion, fully end faithfully re presented, by the most intelligent, patriotic and pru dent men that can be selected. Such a Convention would be able to conciliate ihn contiictieg views of our people, and to unite all parties in support of some effective, prudent, and Constitutional means for the redress of their wrongs and the vindication of their l ights. To the deliberation of such a Con- vention of the people of Georgia, we are willing to submit the questions involved, und to abide by tbeir decision, be it wbut it may. But the editor asks what remedy we would have the conventiou adopt ? We would not presume to propose a remedy. We prefer to leave that to abler heuds. But to assure the editor thut we do not fa vor violent, unconstitutional measures, we will suggest what we think tlie South might very properly de mand, und by union nnd firmness obtain, und witn wuich we would be satisfied : 1st. Congress should be required at its next session to repeal the local law of Mexico, by which the South is excluded from the U. S. territories. 2d. Congress should repeal, or so alter the law ad mitting California, us to preserve the line of 36 3P,nud give the territory south of that line a territorial govern ment, with protection to southern property. A series ofjmeasures tending to these or similnr re suits, would give sntisfactiuu to the eufire South, und silence 'forever the cry of resistance and disunion ainung our people. Such a series ot measures would be but justice to the South, and we believe could he practically carried out by the united and resolute ac tion of the South. Is it too much to demand t Is there any obstacle in the way of its being conceded by Congress ? We cun see none, audit' tlie North is as sincere iu its de votion to the Union as is the South, it cun us readily beexpected to gruntus what we demand, as thut the South should submit to the outrage which lias been perpetrated upon her. The editor of the Republi can will rut contend that the repeal of the Mexican Law against sluvery in the territories, would be more a violation of his cherished doctrine of non-in tervention, than waa the late act ot Congress abolish ing the Sluve Trude In the District of Columbia. In regard to the division of California, it is not too small tp be divided; and even if the squatters have to be paid for their assumed sovereignty, Congress can as well vote the money of the people to purchase soil ot the Sovereign Stute of California, as of the Sov ereign State of Texas. If tlie South determinedly, and no one man, were to demand this simple justice, at the next Congress, they could not, ly our opinion fail to olituin it There would not be a Presidential cundidute nor a President maker in that body, tba r would not contrive to get the consent of his con science to conciliate the vote of the united South. But we have made our article ulready much long er than we designed. Wo hope our cotcmpornry will now feel at ease in regard to our position on the question of Southern Rights, and that he will keep ids promise, and do us the justice to publish our article entire, or not at all. Humors and Opinions at the North. The follow ng article, which we extract from the New-York Express, will give nur renders some idea of the eatimation in which wo are held by Northern Edt'ors ami letter-writers: ■•Some Of our coteltipomrlee are taking what seems to us n very unnecessary alarm at certain iminusu- vering whieh is just now going on in Georgia und South Carolina, supposed to huve reference to a se cession from the Union. Information is said to huve reached Washington that a comprehensive plan of resistance to the General Government ill those States is on foot, aud tliat the programme is so ar ranged that even if the power of the Federal Gov ernment is exercised to put it down, the effect of a collision will he to rouse up the ruseminulitof the. ether Southern States, on which the Compromise Brils have been operating as an opiutiMfA corres pondent of the Commercial thus sketfchos the pro- poied plan of operations; “ ‘The plan is raid to bo to unite the direct and cordia l co-operation of Georgia. Georgia will hold tier Oonvcnn-.il first, if the calculations of tlie faction are well founded. The Hotspurs of South Carolina have provided fur the not improbable contingency that a majority of the people will refuse to be re presented. In thut ease they will urge the minority to make common cuuso with themselves, to act in advance of (lie opinion ot Geoi giu. und upon the pre sumption that the majority will be forced up to tho mark of treason and rebellion by the zeal and energy, of tlie confederates. •South Carolina unquestionably means mischief; anil since there is no freedom of discussion there, •ither through the prsss or otherwise, in respect to the alleged grievances of her citizens, we may ex pect the excitement to reach a high pitch.’ " “And this is followed up in corroboration by the Washington correspondent of the Evening Tost, who writes, thut— “ ‘Private advices hnve'bcen received from South Carolina which really look like confirmation sure of previous reports of u universal madness and lunuey pervuding tho State. According to the information received, the Governor has given notice of his inten tion to summon the Legislature immediately aiier the election of the new members, whicli will bo be tween the first and tenth of tiro corning month. He will propose to them Vo call forthwith a Convi ntion of the people, with the earnest recommendation to leave the Union witnout further parley or delay.’ ” “We confess to very little faith iu the avowed de termination of the Georgia fnctionists to push their fanaticism to so silly and stupid an extreme as would most likely bring down upon her head u worse dis honor than even South Carolina uulliticatirn won on a certain well-remembered occasion, during the Jack- son administration. There are demagogues in both States wtio delight to talk and threaten afier tire fashion above set forth; hut us the world has now flomo knowledge of tho wide difference between saying nnd doing in Georgia and South Carolina, we tbink-it an allowable conclusion that the Union may bo considered perfectly safe u little while longer ” -, Shall wo rest under this humiliating imputation? Or sliull we- show our Northern fellow-citizens by our unanimity and firmness in action, that tjieir scoff ing rcdicule and contempt is out of pluce when ap plied to Georgia?

Its hopes rest ou Georgia and on Gover nor Towns. Tlie Governor, however, to judge from his message, feels very much like a certain combatant after he is considered pretty well whipped.

Nothing will come out of that Georgia Convention, mark me, except that those who insist upon it, and distinguish themselves at it most in tlie way of uilratsm, will be the firstof those thrown overboard.
