The Citizens of Chatham County who, whilst they

State, yet are in favor of the DECLARATION OF
SOUTHERN RIGHTS, aa contained in the Resolu
tions submitted to the Meeting on Tuesday night,
are Invited to attend an Adjourned Meeting, to be
held on To-morrow Night, 24th inst., attho Ex
change Long Room, at half past 7 o’clock.
The Meeting Lnst Night.
Pursuant to notice a very large meeting of the cit
izens of Chatham County assembled at the Long
Room of the Exchange, at a very early hour last
night The meeting was organized alter some dis
cussion, by appointing William B. Bulloch and
William Law, Esqs. Presidents, and William
F. Law and John N. Lewis Esqrs., Secretaries.
The meeting was first addressed by R. W.Cuylib
Esq,, who briefly stated the object for which it was
convened.
Dr.R.D, Arnold, with a few remarks, introduced
his motion for the appointment of a committee of
ten to be composed equally of Whigs and Democrats
to nominate delegates ti the State Convention.
Judge E. J Harden then addressed the meeting
prefatory to the following preamble and resolutions,
which he offered as expressive of the sentiments of
the friends of the Union and Southern Rights :
The people of Georgia, by their constituted
authority, having determined to meet in convention,
ond it being the duty of the people of every county
to select delegates thereto, who shall express the
opinions of their constituents, and advise such course
of proceedings as shall comport with the highest and
best interest of the State, in view of tho dangers
which threaten the peace and prosperity of the slave
holding States; and it being important that only
such persons shall be elected in each county, as will
express the sentiments of those by whom they are
elected to such convention, and that these sentiment*
be promulgated.
1st Be il therefore Resolved, By the citizens of
Chatham county, in primary meeting assembled, that
the Government of the United States i* one of limi
ted powers—that by tho terms and according to tho
spirit of the Constitutional Compact of Union, no
power not expressly, or by the clearest implication,
delegated to such Government, of right belongs or
appertain* to the same, and that in case of a palpable
and dangerous violation of such Compact, it is the
duty ana the right of each sovereign member of the
Confederacy to interpose for its own protection, by
soma positive act of resistance, or a withdrawal from
the Union.
2nd. And be it further Resolved, That whilst wo
are opposod to the dissolution of the Union, or the
secession of the State at the present time, yet we re
gard the measures passed by the late Congress upon
the Slavery and Territorial questions (the Fugitive
Slave hi)) excepted) as aggressive upon the rights of
the South.
3d. And be it further Resolved, That no person is
entitled to the confidence of the people of this coun
ty, who would in any mannor countenance the idea
that tho LegUilature or Governor ought to be cen
sured for calling tho Convention about to be held in
Georgia.
4th. And be it further Resolved, That with this de
claration of views and principles, this meeting pro-
coed to the nomination of tour persons to be ballot'
ed for on tho 23th November next, as delegates to
represent this county in the aforesaid Convention,
A discussion ensued,in which speeches were made
in favor of the resolutions by Solomon Cohen
and J. M. Millbn, Esqrs., and against them by J
E. Wahd, Esq., who moved to lay the resolutions
on the table. This motion gave rise to an irregular
discussion, in which questions of order were raised.
The motion was finally put to the meeting. In the
confusion the Chair was unable to determine; the
vote. A division was called for, when the friends
and opponents of the resolutions took opposite sides
oi the room. A count was impossible. Tho motion
to lay on the table was still undecided, but was claim
ed by either party, who alternately cheered.
At this crisis a motion was made to adjourn. As it
w^a impossible to get tho sense of the meeting—the
opponents of the Resolutions voting in favor, and
>Wr supporters voting against the motion—much
confusion ensued, when the proposition was made that
the Southern Rights men should withdraw from the
meeting. The friends of the Resolutions according
lywitlidrewto Monument square, where after an in
formal organization, the Resolutions wore unani
mously adopted, and a meeting at the Exchange ap
pointed for next Thursday night for tho purpose of
nominating delegates to the Convention.
The portion of the meeting who remained at the
Exchange, nominated as delegates to the Convention,
Dr. R. D. Arnold, John E. Wabo Esq., F. 8. Bab
tow, Esq., and R. R. Cuyleb, Esq.
Fine Cotton. Eight bales of Cotton - from the
plantation of Mrs. E. E. Bell, of Hancock County,
were sold on Tuesday, by Messrs. Rabun Si Fulton

Arrival of tho Florida.
The steamer Florida arrived here yesterday at
half past8 o’clock, in 63 hour# from New York, with
202 csbin and 89 steerage passengers. A list of her
passengers will be fcund in another column.
By this arrival wo have received (Ilea of the New
York Express and Commercial Advertiser of Saturday
eveniug, for which our attentive cotemporaries have
our thanks. We ari&lso indebted to the Clerk of the
Florida and Mr. Chick, for (Ilex of ell the New York
papers.
It sets us a little fbnoard to have the New York
paper* of Saturday evening on our table at break
fast time on Tuesday morning. Indeed the admira
ble time of the Florida bring* us so near to New
York that we begin to feel like suburban* o >’ the
great metropolis When the other boat is placed up
on the line we shall not be surprised to see our peo
ple taking seats by telegraph at Jenny Lino's Con
cert,for any night in the week, provided (hey like the
programme. It will be nothing wonderful to have
our tables supplied with fresh Beef Steaks from
New Yjirk Fulton Market
Important Mission to this Country from
Rome.
The New York Herald of Saturday states that His
Holiness Pius IX has sent John S. Alemani, Bishop
of California, on un important mission to this coun
try. If the Herald’s account of this mission is to be
relied on, it will give rise to new questions in relation
to titles in squatterdom, and will probably induce
new views in regard to the validity of the lex loci in
our newly acquired Mexican territories. Tho Herald
says that tho Bishop “ has been instructed to visit
this country by the Pope, as Amin Bey has been di
rected to make his investigations here, by the desire
of the Sultan of Turkey, who is the Pope or Caliph
ofthe Mahometan religion, and holds the spiritual
sway over Egypt, the Barbary States, and Turkey in
Asia. The Bishop of California will look carefully
through our great cities, examine our progress in the
beautiful and useful arts, make all necessary esti
mates of our great public and private enterprises,
and will then depart for California, just in season to
carry out his instructions in that romantic and gold
en hearted country.
“Considerable curiosity has been excited to know
tye actual temporal purpose ofthe Pope, in sending
this resident legato to California. His mission how
ever, is a plain one. Besides including tho curacy of
souls in that quarter, it has a great significance with
respect to the curacy of acres. In hia capacity aa rep-
reaentntive of the Pope, he will examine and display
the titles to the old Jesuit property in California, and,
as near as it can he ascertained will claim ffom one
hundred to one hundred and fiftymillions of dollars'
worth ol land, as tho rlghtfu' property of the early
Jesuit missionaries. Thus, the great litigation which
will grow out of this unexpected movement of the
Pope in California, will be a great temporal blessing
to the Californians. The recent quarrels will dwindle
into memories of small things forgotten, and the
fights ofthe squatters with the land speculators will
siuk Into the utmost insigificance. in view of the great
spiritual and temporal attention which will be paid to
California by the newly appointed Bishop.' ’
(JP In our paper ol yesterday we published an
nrticle from tile Baltimore Hun, in which it is stated,
that resolutions were passed by the Baptist Conven
tion of the State of New York, opposed to the Fugi
tive Slave Bill. Wo have been furnished with a copy
of the New York Recorder, containing tho proceed
ings of the Convention, by which it appears that the
Resolutions alluded to were not pnssod in Conven
tion, but by au Informal meeting of the members and
others at the dose of the evening session. The Recor
der’s account says :—
" After the meeting was over, some remarks were
made by Rev. Henhy Davis, in reference to the pas
tor of a colored church in Rochester. He said that
this pastor was a Fugitive Slave, and feeling under
the necessity of leaving for Canada to avoid the ac
tion of the Fugitive Slave Law, he requested that a
collection be taken to aid in sustaining him and his
family during the coming winter. Mr. Davis then
introduced the pastor to uie audience. lie made a
short statementof his condition, and past history,und
a collection was then taken up in his behalf, amount
ing to about #60.
*• Au informal meeting was then organized by a
portion of the audience, Rev. Gibbon Williams in
the chair, and Rev. Mr. OlcoTt, Secretary ; and a
committee was appointed to report a series ol Reso
lutions at an adjourned meeting in the morning. In
the morning the adjourned meeting was held, at
which a considerable audience of delegates and citi
zens of Brockport attended, and Resolutions strong
ly condemning the recent law of Congress as unjust
and unconstitutional, were passed."
The Crops.—The Wilkinson (Miss.) Whig of the
11th inst. says:
There could be no more favorable season for cot
ton picking than the present; every where the fields
are white lor the harvest. The sun is hot, the air
dry, and the earth parched and hot, and the cotton
bolls are bursting open faster than the crop can be
gathered. The stoiy will soon be told; in a few
weeks tho crop will be gathered, and, as showy as
it now looks, about a third of it will come up mis
sing. It cannot now be denied that the cotton crop
iB short
The Pointe Coupee, La. Echo ot the 12th inst. says:
Since our last number the weather has not chang
ed. The month of October is more like the month
of August and September. The drought still contin
ues, which is most favorable lor the cotton planters,
The cane on the old lands has suffered much for
want of rain. Nearly all of our sugar planters are
ready to commence grinding; they are waitingfor a
cool spell of weather.
The Clinton (East Feliciana, La ) Whig of the 9th
inst says:
The picking season in this parish has thus far been
markeo by a succession of fine weather, which has
aided much in forwarding the work. In moat of the
fields tile 1st of November will tell the tale, and in
none will there remain much cotton to pick after
that period. Our planters knowing this, are not de.
ceived as to the probable yield. An average crop is
not anticipated by and, and he considers himself a
lucky man whocaleulates for two-thirds > of the quan
tity for which he pitched.
Gpoa Dividend. The Directors of the Augusta
Manufacturing Company have declared a dividend
of 5 per cent, on the original cnpital of the Company,
payable ou demand, out of the profits of the last six
months.
This while the mills of the North are closing their
doors I Do we need any better evidence than this
that the Sonth has it in her power to compete success,

Public Dinner to Senator Berrien. The
Hon. Jno. McPherson Berrien hss accepted the invi
tation to a public dinner, tendered him by the citi
zens of Burke county, “as a testimony of their en
tire rppreciation of his patriotic course in support of
the Constitution and equal rights, during the late ses
sion of Congress.” The correspondence h^ween
Judge Berrier and the Committee of luvitatiW, will
be published at an early day. The dinuer will take
place ou Monday, the 4th day of November.
HowitWobks. At an Anti-Fugitive Slave Law
meeting, held in Cincinnati on the 14th inst., Com
missioner Stetson said that he had held the office of
U. S. Commissioner for several years, and when he
heard ofthe passage of this infamous law, he imme
diately sat down and wrote his resignation, and en
closed it in his commission; and that as soon as he
was called upon to aid in carrying out its provisions,
he would send his resignation to tile appointing pow-
This announcement was received with thunders
ot applause.
The Utica Convention. The Utica N. Y. Whig
Convention composed of the seccdors from the Syr
acuse Convention have adopted the ticket nomina
ted by the previous Convention. The Express says:
“The voice of the Convention was unanimous against
the re-agitation of the slave questions settled by
Congress, and in favor of the Union, the Constitu
tion, and a just administration of the laws ot the
land. The delegates all felt that the Union had been
and was in danger, and that a wise administration of
public affairs, und a spirit of conciliation and com
promise, could alone save it even from impending
dangers.
A telegraphic despatch to the editor of the Express
from Utica, says—
The Convention will put before the people a strong
Address, which will endorse the President, Messrs.
Clay, Webster &c., and will send a di-Hd thrust to
the movement of Seward & Co. to establish a North
ern Abolition party, and urges that the slavery ex
citement shall not be renewed in the next Congress.
At the same time, ground will be taken against any
more new slave territory, and insist that if this Con
vention had not been called, the Whigs ot New York
would have been cast off from the Whig Party of
the nation. The resolutions will he about the same
as those offered by the minority at Syracuse, but a
little more decided.
Thus it seems that both wings of the party are sat
isfied, and will both support the same ticket. We
published Mr. Gbeeley's endorsement of Wash
ington Hunt's declaration of principlea yesterday.
The Express, which is the organ of the seceders or
Utica wing, isquite as cordinl as the Tribune in its
approval of the letter of the nominee.
Unitarian Convention.-A report of the pro
ceedings of the Autumnal Unitarian Convention
which was in session in Springfield, Mass., last week
says—i* The discussions have been of great interest,
touching the distinguishing features of tho doctrines
of the sect, und among the resolutions adopted was
one bearing against the Fugitive 8Iave Law. This
created a wurm discussion—many deeming its intro
duction incompatible with the object ofthe conven
tion, but the great majority was in favor of denounc
ing the law."
The Fugitive Slave Law, and the Chubch.—
The New York Evangelical Congregational Associa
tion, which met at Poughkeepsie on the 8th instant,
expressed their views upon the Fugitive Slnve Law,
in this wise:—
Resolved, That while we recognize the obligation to
obey the laws of the land, we make no exception in
the case of all such provisions us contravene the “high
er laws” o God.
Resolved, That we advise all parsons to render eve-
ry needful ant and comfort to Fugitive Slaves, just
the same as if there was no law in the land for
bidding it.
Upon these proceedings the New York Express re
marks:—
Surely it is not in consonance with the teachings
of the Bible to stir up rebelliou to civil law, which
we ourselves have made. Execrable as the Fugitive
Slave Bill may be and revolting as some of its provi
sion* are, to the hearts and heads of Northern free
men, if it is to be repealed, in the name of common
honesty, let it be done honorably, at least, if not
peaceably. To counsel disobedience is the worst
way to make a had law good, in a country like ours,
which boasts of having tribunals, at and through
which the people may correct legislation however
hud. if we setourselves up to obey just such laws
as may suit our tuste, and no others, wbat is the use
uf having a Congress ot ull ? If every man assumes
to interpret the Statute-book as he individually thinks
right, the sooner we begin to ahuli-h Congress, and
the Judiciury, the better, for what is the use of tax
ing the people to pay members of Congress, and
Judges on the Bench, for the performance of duties
now in effect recommended to be made supereroga
tory, if not altogether obsolete. 14 we are deter
mined to substitute Aiiarehy ‘or Order, and in due
time, Barbarism and Bloodshed, for Law, Civiliza
tion, and Public Safety, Ihe sooner the commence
ment is made the better, so that we may know wbat
is coming.

The* Dry fiuafis Trade.
New York. Oct. 19.
The Dry Goods market remains much tins same as
noticed last week. Brown and Bleached Sheetings
and Shirtings are in better demand and firmer, in
view of the high prices of the raw material. Printing
Cloths ure also a trifie firmer, with large sales. Tho
transactions of the week are about 40, W0pcs..27a28
inches at 4) a 5c. Prints and Cashmeres continue in
afctive demand at full prices. The supply is just
about adequate to the demand. Ginghams are inac
tive, being out of season, prices, however, are un
changed. At a slight concession, a good business
would be done for export. Cotton Flannels are rath
er dull, with moderate sales at steady prices. Stripes
and Ticks arein rather better demand, but without
change in prices. Tweeds and Jeans are inactive at
previous prices. Cassimerea and Satinets are dull
and generally inactive, except at forced sales. At
auction the sales of late have oeen heavy, and in most
instances nt lower prices. Foreign descriptions nre
in good demand, and there is a good' business doing
at steady prices. Cloths are in rather better demand
though prices have receded on many qualities.
Stuff goods are depressed, with small sales nnd a large
stock; Pilots and Beavers are in good demand, with
moderate stocks, end blankets are quick of sale at
paying prices. The demand for Merinoes keeps up
at full prices. Silks and ribbons are dull in respect
of the low qualities, of which tho stock is heavy but
fine qualities continue hi request. Velvets are also in
good demand.
The auction sales have been large and rather im
portant. The sales on Wednesday of Bombazines,
Merinoes and Mouslin do Laines, the importation of
one of our largest houses, was particularly attractive
and was attended by a very large company. The
goods realized better prices than were anticipated by
those well acquainted with the market. The Bom
bazines sufiered the most, but the better grades of
Merinos, and nearly the whole of the printed goods
brought more than could have been obtained for them
at private sale.
