The fourth resolution having been materially amend, rd we republish the entire series ns they were adopted by the Convention. Tho vote on the final passage of tin) resolutions was—ayos 237 ; nays 19. He it llemlved by the People of Georgia in Convex, lion assembled, 1st. That, we hold tho Amoncan Un- iun,secondary In importance only to the rights and principles it Was designed to perpetuate. 1 hat past associations, present fruition and iuturo prospects, will bind us to it so long ns it continues to bo the safeguard of those rights find principles. Secondly, That if the thirteen original parties to the contract,bordering the Atlantic in a narrow belt, while their Bcperatointerests wore in embryo, their peculiar tendencies scarcely developed, their revolu tionary trials and triumphs, still green in memory, found Union impossible without Compromise, the thirty-one of this day mBy well yield somewhat, in the conflict ot opinion nnd policy, to preserve that Union which haB extended tho sway ot republican government over a vast wilderness, to another ocean, and proportionally advunced their civilizations and national greatness. Thirdly, That in this spirit, the State ot Georgia has maturely considered tho action of Congress em bracing a scries of measures for the admission ol Cali fornia into the Union, the organization of territorial Governments for Utuh and New Mexico, the estab lishment of a boundary between the latter and the State of Texas, the suppression of tho slnve trade in the District ol of Columbia, and the extradilion of fu gitive slaves, and (connected with them) |ho rejoc non of propositions to exclude slavery from the Mexi can territories and to abolish it in the District ot Co lumbia; and whilst she does not wholly approve, will abide by it ns a permanent adjustment ol this section al controversy. Fovthly, That the State of Georgia, in tho judg ment of this Convention, will and oughtto resist,even (as a last resort,) to u disruption of every tie which binds her to the Union, any action of Congress, upon the subject of slavery in the District of Columbia, or in places subject to the jurisdiction of Congress, in compatible with the safety, domestic tranquility, the rights end the honor of the slaveholding States, or any act suppressing the slave trade between the Biaveliold- ing States, or any refusal to admit as a State any territory hereafter applying, because of the existence of slavery therein ; or any act prohibiting the in troduction of slaves into the territories of Utah and New Mexico , or any act repealing or, materially modifying the laws now in force for tho recovery of fugitive slaves. * Fifthly, That it ia the deliberate opinion of this Convention, that upon the faithful execution of the Fugitive Slave Late by the proper authorities depends the preservation of our much loved Union. gy A memorial has received tha signature of a number of the lending mercantile houses of Baltimore for aid ot the Government, by a contract fqr carry, ingthe mail by a Ena of steamships between the ports of Norfolk and Baltimore, to Bomb port in Eng land, LATEST DATES Liverpool, Nov. 30 | Havre, Nov.28 \ Havana, D ec .

Gray Christopher Gadd Henry Gartlacd, Rt Rev Grant Mr* H Garret Betsey Gray Pnilip Genren Patrick Genochlo F Greene Mrs Mary J Geil Nicholas Grehn Joseph Garrett Tom Gibb James Grigg Master Jas Gibson JohnW Gilbert Samuel A Gilham Mrs Eliza M Goodwin Michael Goulding C H Goldstein Wm Goleghar P Glenn Rev John W Guerry H E Correction.—^The copy of the report of the Com mittee of Thirty-Three, from which we printed yes terday, contained an erroj which Is corrected in the copy since received. In the eighteenth paragraph speaking of the resistance of the Abolitionists to the fugitive slave law, the report, bb printed, reads “We will predicate no extreme action upon their measures of repeal or of modification. In the cor rected copy the word menaces is supplied Instead of “measures-" As this change materially affects the sense, it is important that the correction should be c-J 'made. Aoit-.tion Begun.—That miserable Marplot, as the N. Y. Express calls him, Joshua Giddinos, has opened his batteries in the House against the Fu gitive Slave Bill. In his speech on Monday last ho contended that the President had no right to veto a bill repealing that act; that the act itself was unconstitutional, nnd could not and ought not to be executed. Slavery was a State institution over which the general government had no control, eifcer to regulate, jphold or abolish. He contended that the citizens of the non-slavcholding States could not be constitutionally called upon to aid in the arrest or surrender of a fugitive slave. No power of thiB gov ernment could compel the people of the North to in volve themselves in this crime. He said THAT THE LAW WOULD NOT BE AND HAD NOT BEEN ENFORCED IN NEW-ENGLAND, NEW-YORK, OR THE WESTERN COUNTRY. THE PRESI DENT COULD NOT ENFORCE IT BY HIS AR TILLERY AND HIS BAYONETS, AND IF HE SHED A DROP OF BLOOD HE WOULD SOUND THE DEATH-KNELL OF THE UNION. Wearc not disposed to sttachany great degree of importance to the declarations of such men as Gid dings, though we have from the first doubted tbe- possibility of enforcing the fugitive Slave Law- If .Us enforced, the North must enforce it. If it is not enforced the Union cannot be enforced. The fate of the law and the Union are in the hands of the conservatism of the North. Every truo patriot will await the result with anxious interest. ’ Election Notice.

In giving place to the following article, from the Marietta Union, we do not desire to be understood as endorsing its spirit, so far as relates to Carolina.- The article contains some good hints as well as some illiberal, and, as we think, unbecoming reflections upon our neighbors, such as we are sorry to see in dulged at a time like the present.

But we would be the last to deal Carolina an ungenerous blow, or to exult In her misfortunes. We feel that she belongs to tho Southern sisterhood—that her destiny is idvn titled with our own,and thnt her estrangement would be our weakness. Sustaining the relation to her that we do, we feel that it is unbecoming in us to join in the chorus of the Northern presses in taunting and ridiculing her people, who, if they are rasb, and im petuous iu the vindication of their rights, have had much to insense and exasperate them. Whatever her errors, it ill becomes us to upbraid Carolina with her weakness, or threaten her with tho power of tbe General Government! ■/ Savannah.—If Thereis any sincerity in thethreats of South Carolina to secede from the Union, it be comes important that Savannah should be amply pre S ared to meet the demand that will be made upon or market, in consequence of a large trade diver ted from Charleston. So far as Georgia is concern ed, she owes a greater manifestation of interest in the welfare of her own seaport than lias been here tofore apparent. Let Savannah be to Georgia what Charleston is to South Carolina. The internal im provements of South Carolina, all have for their object tho enriching and agrandizing of her great metropolis ; white chose of Georgia (her State en- terprizes) serve Bimply as channels through which commerce flows from her, and her metropolis into an adjoining State. This is wrong policy at sny time, but more especially now, when a dependence on so rebellious a State as South Carolina, might es sentially embarass the commmercial affairs of our own citizens. The Coinaoeattiie Mint.—TheU. S. Mint at Philadelphia, is coining money at a very rapid rate i having during the last month coined over four mil lions of dollars, will this month exceed five millions and the following month reach the large sum of six millions. The principal part of the-coinage is in gold, although ouough silver is turned outtor the general circulating medium of the country, and there would probably be no scarcity of silver coin were it not for the fact that it has been commanding a pre mium for shipment to England and California. Benton After the Presidency.—The Washing ton correspondent of the Baltimore Clipper says : Benton's speech yesterday, when introducing his bill for the selection of a site by the President, und the immediate erection of a Western Armory, was tho first opening of a campaign on his part in efforts to create a western sectional party, and to place him self at tbe head ol it. His great object is, the manu- facturo of thunder to give him the vote in the valley of the Mississippi at the next election of President. He is pretty well understood, however, and his uffin ity with the abolitionists will kill him off,even should he carry every measure that may come up before Conriess in which the Westhss an interest. CHINESE Revolution. The people of the “flow ery land,” although g iqe ally ns calm and contented with their lot as the disciples of so profound a philos opher as Con-fut-see should be, nevertheless can sometimes be warmed Into a passion. Such seems now to be the case, and a part of the subjects of that great monarch, who claims to bo first cousin to the moon, are in a state of actual rebellion. Late advices Inform us that an insurgent army of 50,000 men was within forty leagues of Canton; one district town had been sacked, another was in a state of siege, and tho Imperial troops had been repulsed with great loss.

M’Entee Thomas Jil’Cape Edward M’Donell Thadeus M'Inerny James McDoncJl Miss Georgian- na N M’Curter Mrs E H M'Bride James M'Lennan Alex M’Entee Hugh Another matter should be considered by our peo ple. A difficulty between S. Carolina and tne General Government, would at once have the effect ol de preciating her currency. and as it is largely in circu lation in Georgia, and has been rumored to be, n abort time back, in an uncertain condition, any sud den change in that State's relations towards this Gov ernment, would bring suffering upon the holders of her money iu Georgia. We do not pretend the pre diction of any of these results, but the martial spirit of our chivalrous neighbors is aroused; General Brisbane, ot' her military school, Is already sketch ing a line of defense for her troops, officered by his pupils, and however successful may be their demon stration upon “ Muson sud Dixon’s line," it may reasonably be anticipated that the cash box will sut ler by the operation ; while her troops are going through the coffin manual along the aforesaid line, Uncle Sam may send some of Old Hickory’s patent sugar machines around to the mouth of her harbor. War is a game that two can play at, and South Caro- lana “ blue pills" on “Mason and Dixon's line," may bo met with sugar-coated pills at Charleston harbor. If nothing will satisfy her but a fight, it is no.ipart of Georgia’s business to foot the bill. Hence we say, look to Savannah mark-t, and our own State curren cy. Let not the business of Georgia flag, because South Carolina wants to go a “sogermg I” . jgp” The Cholera at Jamaica, wo are glad to be assured , on thelaith of private tetters, b^y the Em pire City, was beginning to .subside. The city of Kingston is said to have lost no lower than five thou, sand inhabitants by the scourge, and Port Royal a proportional number. Fboh IIayti—By the brig Louis Walsh, Captain Milliken, arrived at New-York, we are informed that the Emperor had issued a proclamation to his sub jects, reccomraending them not to eat salt provisions, as it was a great inductive to tho cholera. It was thought tiiis arrangement, if carried out, would ma terially affect the market In those articles. The exis tence of the cholera at Jamaica had caused great alarm among the Hay t <T.t. Compliment to an Actoii.—Our readers will re member Mr. Couldock, the gentleman who sus tained Miss Cushman, during her engagement hero last winter. His chasteness of style graphic delinea tions of character, and correct elocution, mnde him during his short stay among us, a favorite with the discriminating portion of his audiences. We ob serve that he is not less appreciated by the Philadel phia public, where he is ut present performing— The Ledger thus speaks of him, ia alluding to a com plimentary benefit, which had been tendered to him by his friends: This gentleman has, since his "sojourn in this city, won a high reputation as an actor of sterling merit, und he has won it against some little prejudice which first assailed his performances. Now ho is acknowl edged one of the’best actors upon the boards. His admirers in this city intend to present him this eve ning with a star ot brilliants set in gold, in which they are about two hundred mid fifty stones. It is a beautiful ornament, and will be presented by the stage manager, Peter Richings. Sueh a compliment is rarely received. In this instance it is awarded well merited.
