The Citizens of Chatham County who, whilst they may he opposed to Disunion or the Secession of the 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 •t H}c. 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, fully with the North in the manufacture of Cotton Goods 1 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. Philadelphia. Oct. 18.—A committee is now can- l asting the city to get assistance to aid in the publi cation of certain iucendinry resolutions regarding ; ; ' , _ , the fugitive slave law, which the responsible papeis l[J : ^Tha first locomotive tor 4 t he La Grange Railroad i refuse to publish considering them riotous la their wj»» liiided at the wharf in Augusta uu Saturday. | tendency, and subversive of law and order. 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. PASSENGERS.

AUGUSTA, Oct 22.—Cotton.—Our market, in the early part ot last week, was very dull, and it was with difficulty that operations could be effected.
