The trial we have made of It, enablesus to pronounce it a very superior article—well formed, free and flex- ilile, and gliding ns smoothly over the paper as the more primitive pen with which our grent-grandfathere were wont to indite their thoughts upon vellum or parchment But that it is compelled to speak in its own praise, we might say much more in its praise.

The Report and Resolutions of the Conven tion. The Macon Telegraph, we are sorry to see, disap proves, in very decided terms, the action ot the Con vention. Commenting on the report of the commit-* too of thirty-three, tbe Editor says :— As a grave State paper, reflecting the sovereignty of a great State like Georgl . it ia not destined in our opinion to take a very high rank. And while no one Can read it without being struck with the ex- tremecare and adroitness with which it is written, none can tail to perceive that it was prepared for just such expositions as occasions might require. Every thought expressed, seems to have been pon dered, and every word uttered, weighed in the bal ance of the nicest prudence.,-There is no directness, no ardor of feeling, no glow oi thought, no force ot tfxpi'eflston ; everything is calm, co >1, and caiculat* ink. But nothing elae could have beep expected from the 'school ot* politics- ot the leading minds which controlled the Convention. Ampre objec tionable doouhiedt in our opinion, not-, only to the minority, but to a large portion ot the majority, when they come to examine it closely, was never written in Georgia. Speaking of the resolutions the editor saya: They, like the preamble, we fenr, are intended for exposithm. Ttm sub »titute adopted for the fourth resolution, instead of strengthening the original, makes it, if possible,jfdore vague and general in its charac ter. The changewas made as the debates will show, and which we will publish at an early day, simply to evade the responsibility, ot the legal question ot the B ower ot Congress over_the subject ot slavery in the Utrict of Columbia. Thus ha* Georgia thrown away her last chance to have her rights respected ia the Union, without further agitation. For our pwn part are willing to take the Resolutions for,what they moan.in plain English—to stand by them and hold ttie authors of them to their mainteu- a,j$r a! we understand them, they v#tll, if enforced, at least gtve Us security for the future. Indemnity for the past is out of the question. Having slumber ed upon our rights, itis too late now to reclaim what wo havo lost. But the people of Georgia have become aroused to a sevse of their wrongs, and have resolved to submit to no further aggressions upon their rights. The resolutions, passed by an',al.noat unanimous vote, in solemn convention, occupy strictly constitutionul ground, and in their literal meaning are not to be mistaiwau They express the deliberate determina tion of fea people of Georgia, who will submit to no “exposition" of them that is not fe rigid conformity with the views and principles which served as the motives for their adoption. The resolutions are, we admit, a compromise of extreme opinions. So much the better. For while, they serve to .unite all parties at home, in one com mon front, they willalao serve to disabuse the mind of th# North, and to show our enemies what Is the true .standard pf Southern sentiment on the great question Involved. We are willing that the report shall go for what it is worth. In Itself, to ia powerless for good or evil. It is but the prologue to Ahe more serious matter, and though we could h "e bad it amended or omit ted altogether, we are not disposed to cavil with it now, and shall be glad if it serves any good purpose. If it should reason the abolitionists, upon whom so much good argument has been expended in vain, into soberness, we shall be both gratified and disap pointed. But we regard the resolutions in a very Hk different light As a Southern Rights Union man, we nj| are willing to accept them, and to stand by and main wtm tain, to the last extremity, all the positions assumed WF' ia the fourth resolution. Upon this resolution alone, which i» th» head ami front of the aeries, we think the whole South might safely uni te and rest the fu- turn-vindication of hfer rights in the Union. T^the friends of the Convention, and the advo cate.&of Southern Rights, we conceive, belongs the honor of having achieved this broad declaration ol Southern principles—this ULTIMATUM OF GEOR GIA; and it becomes them now, for the aake of the Union of the South, and the Union of the States, abide by it, and give it their cordial support. Any other course ia impracticable for good, and can only tend to distract and divide our people, and to weak en the resistance which we may be called on hereaf ter to exert against the.as.ults of our enemies. Indiana Convention Tho Indiana Convention have adopted a section that half the State Senators » shall be chosen for four years,and hull fortwo years.

Marshal Tukev.—Marshal Tukey, of Boston, who was complained ot by tile abolitionists for his non-interference on the occasion of the Thompson riot, has been examined before the Mayor. The Marshal in tho course of his defence said there was another class whom he would have long since ap prehended for higher offences against the law than those committed in Faneuil Hall, on the night of the Thompson meeting. He meant those persous who bad encouraged ignorant black men to arm them selves, and resist unto death tlqe enforcement of a law of the United States. Those persons, said be, had I my way, would have lone since received such punishment as they deserve, and have too long es caped." Well said for Marshal Tukey.

We were shown yesterday, (-aya the Charleston Mercury of Tuesduy,) by Gen. (4. D. Mitchell, ot Mississippi, some samples of a variety of cotton which he has cultivated sufficiently to test its qualities, and to which we desire to cull the attention of our planters as eminently worthy of adoption. The plant, he in. forms us,iB from Mexico, and is probably an original American species. It differs from file common cot ton in several particulara. It branches nearer the ground, forms a larger growth with less height, is more vigorous in appearance, and it branches op. posite instead of alternate. The ' bloom also differs in color. But the great distinction is in the abun dance of the fruit,—the bolls being so thick upon the stalk, that when allowed all to open, they literally cover it with their broad snowy mass, so tha the individual bolls are undistinguishable. This.heHSsures us, is not the peculiarity of choice specimens merely but of the general growth. in the Vicksburg Whig of November 20, Gen. Mitchell published a statement of the production of one acre and three quarters of this Cotton. Tho land he characterises us --thin hill land, that has been in cultivation twelve years without manure." We quote UiAtatement: . “1 weighed the Cotton of the different pickings myself, and the following is the result! 1st picking. Election Notice.

Thus giving 4897 lbs. up to this date, (Nov. 36.) and I suppose there will be about 200 pounds more to pick. One hundred bolls yield one pound ten ounces of seed Cotton, and 34 pounds of lint to the 100 pounds of seed Cotton. Great ns this product is, no one would be astonish ed at it after seeing specimens of the product of indi vidual branches. Gen. Mitchell has brought to South Carolina for sale, a quantity of the seed of this pro lifle plant,which has received the name of the “Pome granate Cotton.” He disposed of a portion of it, in Charleston and is now in Columbia,where he expects to find ready purchajgjpa in the groat cotton region of the State. W i have, aays the Mercury, been so impressed with the value of this new variety of our great stable that we cannot but urge upou the planters the importance of introducing it. It hai been said that the cotton re gion ot the South was already nearly occupied. What if we have the means of doubling the product with out extending the culture! How immensely is tho power of the Southern States thereby secured and- enlarged.” Correspondence of the N. Y Express. Washington, Dec. 9.- The movement in some of the Southern States, to exclude their free black population, and drive it off to the North, taken in connection with the scheme of taxing merchandize imported from the n.m slaveliolding States, will have in the end a most beneficial influence, aud do more to allay the slavery excitement than anything else that could have been thought of. The threat ot taxation is less distasteful than the threat of disuniou, but that both are inimical to good policy and sound patriot ism, none will deny. The proposition to expel the free blacks—affording them the meuns of emigration is, on the contrary, for the purposes contemplated, a magnificent project. That false philanthropy which has fomeuted so long in the New England States,and extended, like an evil blight, until it hus corrupted tho popular sentiment ol the whole North, Will thus have all opportunity of exerting itself to some prac tical good, by providing for the extradited rifee which its operations has broughtto a doom otherwise harsh and unjustly merited. The money now employed in feesting Mr. Thomp son, M. P, and paying the travelling expenses of Mr. Frederick Douglass, f. a., will be required to meet this extra demand; and unless bounties How in more profusely, there will hardly be a balance left, with which to purchase paper on which to printtheir ecstatic and erratic speeches.
