Pe >i le of Georgia, beware!
We unuerstund that a circular, accompani

The circular it is said, requests the persons to

fluence in their power to keep the people
from registering their names for, or against
the proceedings and recommendations of the
Bate Convention held in Milledgeville. We

I We use the word extraordinary, for it must
Be known that the plan proposed is impracti

six States enumerated, should assent to

Brel known, before these Resolutions were

Befell to act in the manner proposed. There

Hemion, that the project submitted to the Lc-

Snpremc Court—Ciicrokocj.
CC7’ Mr. Elisha \V. Chester, Counsel lor the
Ckerokees. has notified the Governor, that appli
cation would be made to the Supreme Court f
the U. States, at its session, on the 3d day of
February, 1833, to issue further process to carry
into effect its former judgments and decrees, ren
dered in certain cases, wherein S. A. Worcester
and Elezur Butler are considered plaintiffs in
error, vs. the State of Georgia, defendant in error.
The Governor yesterday communicated the notice
of the Legislature, expressing the same unequivo
cal resistance to this usurpation of sovereign
rights, as he has heretofore recommended, and
repeating his same determination to resist it to
the whole extent of his authority.
The communication of the Governor was refer
red to thejoint committed on the State of the Re
public.
GOV. HAMILTON'S MESSAGE.
To the Legislature of South Carolina.
This deeply interesting State Paper, has
this moment been putinto our hands, we have
consequently only time to scan some of its
most prominent features:
lie says the die has been at last cast, and
South Carolina has at length appealed to her
ult rior sovereignty as a member of this con
federacy, and planted herself upon her reserv
ed rights. He recommends the arming of
every citizen with a civil process, by which
he may claim, if he pleases, a restitution of
his goods seized under the existing iinjxtsls
on his giving security to abide the issue of a
suit at law; and likewise the defining what
shall constitute treason against the State.
He recommends that in case the collectors
of the customs should refuse to grant clearan
ces to vessels outward bound, cairying on
friendly cemmercial intercourse with us, the
Governor should under such circumstances,
he authorised to grant instantly certificates
of clearance under the seal of the State.
From these legislative provisions the Gover
nor passes to the consideration of consequen
ces, which iie trusts are of remote and im
probable occurrence. He says that the rem
edy of the State is of essentially a pacific
character—and so far as she is concerned it
shall be so. Rut as the final issue may be
adverse to the stand which S. Carolina has
assumed, he recommends a thorough revision
of the militia system and its laws—and that
the Executive be authorised to accept for the
defence of Charleston and its dependencies,
the services of two thousand volunteers, ei
ther by companies or files as they may volun
teer; and that thev be formed into four Bat
talions o! Infantry with one Hank company of
riflemen attached to each Battalion, one
squadron of cavalry, and two Battalions, one
ot field, and the other of heavy Artillery, and
that they he armed and equipped from the
public Arsenals, complete for the field.
In addition to these Aoluntecr drafts it is
recommended that the Executive be author
ised to accept the services of ten thousand
Volunteers from other divisions of the Slate,
to he organised, &c., and called the State
Guard.
It is also’ recommended that the President
he requested to direct the removal of the U.
Slates troops now in garrison in the State cit
adel in Charleston, which they now occupy
at the conjoint instance and request of the
State and City authoiitics, as the accommo
dations of that post is much wanted for arms
and munitions.
After recommending these provisions, the
Governor observes—“lt is not enough that
a people may be right in their struggle for
their privileges and liberties, hut they must
have the means of securing their safety by
ample resources for repelling force by force.”
Who will now disbelieve that South Caroli
na is determined to resist the protective sys
tem, even unto death ?
Soatlx-Caroliiia Convention.
Extract of a letter to a gentleman in this place
dated
Columbia, S. C. Nov. 25.
The Convention were determined from the
commencement, to do nothing but nullify—
for many of the ‘ Union party’ had opposed a
Convention, because they were fearful of their
altering the Constitution of this State. Some
propositions were brought forward to alter
portions of our Constitution, anil (what will
appear very strange) by members of the
Union party —by those very men who had
objected to the Convention on those grounds.
These proposals were voted down by an over
whelming majority. There were loOnulli
fiers and 30 Union men m Convention, mak
ing 5-6ths of that body in favor of the Ordi
nance. The principal members of the States
Rights Party, were Hamilton, Harper, Hayne,
McDuffie and Turnbull—of the Union party,
Judge Huger aud O’Neall. Mr. Calhoun
was not only nst a member, but was not even in
Columbia.
“The Convention adjourned yesterday to
meet again, if thought necessary, when called
together by the president of the Convention,
(Hamilton,) or, in case of his death by a com
mittee of five, of whom Judge Harper is one.”
State and Southern Conventions.
Mr. Ryan’s Plan, Resolutions, &c. rela
tive to a State and Southern Convention, were
yesterday taken up in the House ot Repre
sentatives. When wc entered the House,
Mr. T ’urricr of Putnam, moved to lay them on
the table for the balance of the session. The
question on the motion was taken, and deci
ded in the negative—Ayes 55 nays 90.
Mr, Pates offered the following as an ad
ditional resolution to he appended to Mr.
Ryan’s resolutions.
Resolved, that wc abhor the doctrine of
Nullification, as neither a peaceful nor a con
stitutional remedy, but, on the contrary, a - ;
tending to civil commotion and disunion; am.
while wc deplore the rash and revolutionary
measures recently adored by a Convention
ofthe People of South Carolina, we deem it
a paramount duty to warn our fellow-citizens
against the danger of adopting her mischsev
ous policy.
Some desultory debate here ensued; after
which, Mr. King of Greene, proposed a sub
stitute to Mr. Ryan’s plan and resolutions,
THE MACON ADVERTISER.
} wll j c J‘ h? prefaced with some very pertinent
and forcible remarks. The substitute was
• ia )’ the same as the plan and resolu-
Lons offered by Mr. Ryan, omitting the
offensive resolution directed against the late
convention in Milledgeville, and making the
concurrence of four, instead of five States out
° *, *’ sufficient 10 cruat e the contem
plated Southern Convention. The House re
iusjd to consider the substitute, after which
au ineffectual motion.wus made to lake up
Lie original resolution by paragraphs.
Mr. Turner, submitted a substitute for
->lr. Rates’ lesolution which was lost.
Mr. Merri wether also presented a suhsti
lute to strike out so much of Mr. Bates’ res
muttons as censures the recent course pursued
by South Carolina.
Gen. Glascock and Mr. King of Mclntosh
opposed, and tnessrs. Warren and Sparks of
Morgan supported the striking out.
A motion was then made to agree to the
resolution, which elicited a spirited debate
very irregular and discursive in its range,—
and in some instances we think not only ir
relevant to the subject under consideration,
hut incompatible with the duty of the House.
In the course of the discussion,
Mr. \ oung of Oglethore, ably opposed the
I Jan and Resolutions. He deprecated their
tendencies, showed their utter inefficiency to
redress the grievances under which Georgia,
and the South in common labored; and plain
ly piovcd, that if they were adopted there
could be no measure more effectually devis
ed to defeat the object of that Southern Con
vention which gentlemen seemed to have so
much at heart. He alluded in terms of mer
ited reprobation to that part of the additional
resolution, which denounced the policy of
South Carolina. She was acting in her sove
reign capacity, and had a right to do so, with
out being traduced or questioned as to the ex
ercise of that right. If she was so question
ed and so traduced, what would be the conse
quence? It would inevitably tend to create
an incurable division in our Southern coun
cils, now investigating an act of federal legis
lation, which a!) declared unjust, oppressive,
and unconstitutional. Such would he the
effect of this injudicious interference in the
municipal concerns of our sister State; and,
little as might he thought of it by those who
advocated the resolution, that resolution if
passed, would do more to rivet the protect
ive system upon us than all the efforts which
have been made by Mr. Webster and its oth
er distinguished champions. He therefore,
implored gentlemen not to throw the torch of
discord into Southern councils. If they did
so, it would by creating disunion among our
selves, most assuredly bring about those rev
olutionary movements of which they were ap
prehensive, and speed that civil commotion
which the good and patriotic men of all par
ties united hi condeming.
Gen. Glascock, in an animated manner ad
vocated the resolutions in toto. He alluded
in harsh terms, to the recent Convention, and
styled Mr. Berrien the leader of it—said that
that gentleman had expressed an inveterate
hostility to President Jackson’s administra
tion, and dealt in some severe invectives up
on Mr. R. and gentlemen who had been asso
ciated with him. He also remarked in 3
condemnatory manner upon the Oglethorpe
meeting, and concluded by declaring his film
and unalterable attachment to the Union.
Mr. King of Mclntosh, replied to some of
die remarks or tlie gentleman from Mclntosh,
and expressed himself in favor of the resolu
tions, &c.
Mr. Young rose in reply to Gen. Glascock,
and vindicated Mr. Berrien, the late Conven
tion, and the Oglethorpe meeting, in which
he had the honor of participating. He la
mented that the gentleman should have made
the attack which he did, upon an absent and
distinguished individual; and asked him, if
he had proof to substantiate his assertions?
In all the official acts of Mr. Berrien, there
was not one of them which bore the shadow
of a resemblance to the accusations brought
against him. Mr. Young justified the con
vention and the Oglethorpe meeting, and re
pelled the aspersions cast upon them. He
alluded particularly to the odium which it
was the evident intention of one of Mr. Ry
an’s resolutions to fix upon the Convention—
declared it to be not only a departure from
legislative courtesy hut a palpable assump
tion of power on the part of the House, to
which it had no right. That Convention Ire
said, according to the exhibit made by their
committee, represented a very large majority
of the free people of Georgia—and that it was
not within the province of this House, to insult
and degrade their acts by stigmatising it with
the odious epithet of “grossest imposition.”—
By what authority did gentlemen thus impugn
the character of the Convention ? Did they
come here, as intimated by the gentleman
from Richmond, (Gen. G.) instructed by their
constituents to do so? If they did it was a
very novel mode of instruction. Ilis con
stituents imposed no such instructions upon
him—and he would ask gentlemen who sup
posed they were clothed with them, to show
him their “ credentials .” What! call the act
of a large majority of the freemen of Georgia,
a “gross imposition!” O, no—lie could not
believe the House intended it. But, where,
continued Mr. T. did this Plan —these Res
olutions emanate? Was it not from secret
caucus —Was it not from some midnight
conclave? Were they not concocted by the
Seceders from the Convention ? I ask the
gentleman from Warren, if he was their au
thor? [Here the gentleman from Warren
rose, and we understood him to admit, that he
wa3 not their author, and to say it mattered
hot where they came from. He also observ
ed, that the gentleman from Oglethorpe
ought to recollect, that he presented at the
last session, a memorial or petition of which
he was not the author.] I did, continued
Mr. Y. and would with pleasure have made
la,- achnotvlcdgcment at any time, if called
upon. But i.'i.at nr morial was not concocted
in secret caucus, nen^ G, ‘ ' vas intended to
operatean extraneous influeti^ 0 upon the de
liberations of this hotly. It was no>- ‘he work
of Seceders, —nor did itvillify an act of the
people by calling that act a “gross imposition.”
Gen. Glascock reiterated his charge against
Mr. Berrien; hut, with the qualification that
he understood them to be such as he had
made. They cainc, he said, from good au
thority. Alter a fo‘W more remarks he was
followed by Mr. King of Mclntosh, w hen the
question on the adoption of Mr. Rates’ reso
lution was taken and carried. Ayes 101—
navi 50.
I iie previous question was then loudly and
I impatiently called for, when the Speaker was
successively addressed by messrs. Young,
Haynes, King, llarralson, Ryan, arid others,
who were frequently interrupted by continu
ed calls for the previous question. At this
stage of the discussion some confusion pre
vailed, and we could not hear distinctly what
was said. The main question was finally
.put and carried. Ayes 97—nays 55. So
the original Preamble, Plan and Resolutions,
accompanied by the additional resolution
proposed by Air. Rates, passed the Home
without amendment. The former having al
ready appeared in our paper, we decin it un
necessary to republish them. The names of
those who voted in the affirmative and nega
tive will appear in our next.

sideration of the Journals of yesterday,

Theatrical.
To relax a little from the perplexing toils of
our office, we wended our way cn Wednesday
night to the Theatre, for the purpose of wiling
off an idle hour. It was a beautiful moon-light
night. The atmosphere was balmy and elastic.
Twittering of birds from little tufted groves of the
dwarf Pine, which diversify in picturesque grace,
the “capitolian city,” warbled upon our ears, full
of rich and native melody. In the very joyaunce of
nnr I,art we pursued our walk, humming to
ourselt, our favorite air of
“Tlie moon was shining silver bright,”
when our reverie was interrupted, by unexpect
edly reaching the Theatre. We entered —The
Palladium of the vestibule of Tuespis, (we mean
kind reader, the Door-Keeper,) courteously pre
sented us with the intellectual bill of fare for
the evening ; it exhibited the “ Midnight Hour,”
a “Comic Song,” and “Don Jnan.” The cur
tain rose—and rubbing our “visual orbs” to dis
pel the sweet ramblings of our fancy, we turned
our attention to the stage, and what follows is the
result of our critical acumen .
The Midnight Hour is a lively and spirited
farce. The incidents are highly amusing, and
follow each other in quick and delightful succes
sion. The plot too, unravels itselfw’ith pleasjng
ingenuity, and the denoument closes the scene in
a felicitous manner. As it is one of those pieces
which plays itself, we could see nothing particu
lar to admire in the general performance; if the
old, the admirable duenna be excepted—that eha
racter was sustained wfith great effect. The
Marquis wanted ease, grace, and buoyancy of
chhracter: from his oscillating attitudes we should
have taken him, not for a Marquis, hut for a Lieu
tenant of Marines upon his land legs. Don Guz
man should have played the Alarquis.
The “Comic Song” would have made Comus
shed tears—not of mirth inspiring gladness how
ever, but real, io/m fide tragic tears, —could he
have heard one of his side-cracking melodies, set
to the tune of Roslin Castle; or, as old Sol would
say, to some other tune equally so/-um-cholic. It
grated upon our ears like the expiring notes of a
stuck pig. Excuse the vulgar simile reader. We
should have said, like the innocent and unfortu
nate quadruped, anathematized by Mahometan
ordinance.
Don Juan. We abominate pantomines—they
do not belong te the regular drama—they derogate
from its respectability and usefulness, and have
generally, very properly sunk into disrepute. Up
on boards dedicated to Melpomene and Thalia,
we would have no less objection to see Punch
and the Devil exhibited, than these ridiculous
mimes. We were glad to see that the bills an
nounced the piece “for this night only.”
A fascinatien has been thrown around the name
of Don Juan, by the towering and versatile ge
nius of Byron. If some dramatist, equal to the
task, was to collate and throw into a Mtlo, its
leading beauties, it would not only add to the
charm end improvement of the Stage, but also, to
correct taste and judicious satire. Having said
this much, it is unnecessary to remark, that we
consider the pantomine beneath the dignity of
criticism.
We were about closing our notice of the eve
ning’s Derformance; but before doing so, we
thought it might be proper to observe, that the
audience, as well as players are amenable to cen
sorial laws. We percuivcd some aberrations a
tnsng the former during the evening. Should
they again occur, wc will exercise ohr time-hon
ored and indisputable prerogative.

E-way* on the subject of Teeth.
> Amid the variety of subjects which so
so strongly engages the attention of the
community at this interesting period, the
writer ot this essay conceives that the one
which he is about to treat, merits a con
spicuous station, as one of deep interest
and great importance. Those subjects
which have tor their immediate object, the
diminution of the mass of misery and suf
fering connected with the human family,
should undoubtedly claim our highest and
most sincere regard.
While in pursuit ol some favorite, bril
liant scheme, which dazzles in the distance
but like the lgnus Fatuus proves delusive,
and ruinous; we are too apt to neglect
those subjects which more nearly and inti
mately concern our vital interest and per
manent welfare. All the magnificent dis
play of natures unrivalled beauties and de
licious stores and tlte whole catalogue of
rich and varied enjoyment allotted toman
kind, stand forth in a prohibitory defiance
to th.e sickly gaze and enfeebled powers of
those who are subject to the paralyzing
influence ofdiiease. Without health we can
never enjoy the bountiful blessings of Di
vine Providence, dispersed to man, and it
is equally certain, that without a due re
gard & attention to the different organs of
the System: we cannot expect the happy
possession of this invaluable blessing. Our
Teeth constitutes the most important as
well as beautiful organs of the human sys
tem ; without them man would experience
a host of difficulties, calculated to derange
and frustrate the general design and har
mony of the rest. They are as necessary
to accomplish the object of creative wis
dom in the formation and preservation of
man as any of the organs of the System.
To prove this it only requires an insight
into their anatomical and physiologi
cal character, together w ith the various
relations in which they stand to the ditle
rent organized parts of the body—here we
behold a grand reciprocal action, upon a
proper equilibrium of which, depends the
natural health of the system; like the chain
of a watch, destroy one link and you de
range the whole. The objec t for which
our teeth were formed, we fird upon a cor
rect investigation, assumes the character
of the utmost consequence. In the first
places they constitute one of the most
beautiful features of the human counte
nance. The deformity of the face, which
the loss of teeth creates, is of a very repul
sive character, all will admit this: the
lovely fair one in the pride ard beauty of
youth, sustains an inconceivable loss in the
destruction of her snow-white ivory or
gans—it disfigures her appearance, and
greatly diminishes her charms- The young
man w ho is a candidate for hymens favoi s
is true to his interest in endeavouring to
preserve inviolate the purity & health of his
attractive teeth: in the proud moment of
conscious triumph, he flings open his fleshy
doors and from the two formidable rows
of Dental artillery pom s forth a volley of
jrrcsia tibie charms into the admiring gaze
of his fair Dulcina.
Secondly—They tend to preserve the
natural shape and form of the jaws and
face. When we behold the deep sunken
cheek and protruded jaws of those unfor
tunate individuals who have lost a number
of their teeth, we are forcibly impressed
with a sense of their great usefulness in
this particular. A premature decay of
the comeliness of man, thus invariably re
sults from the destruction of these organs.
In the third place, it is well known that
the human voice looses its charms and
force, in proportion as the mouth experi
ences a decrease of its teeth.
Here their superior utility assumes an
imposing shade of character. The clear
distinctiveness, the thrilling melody, and
inspiring intelligence ot this most interest
ing faculty of man, withers beneath the
blasting influence of toothless jaws. Such
unfortunate beings find it extremely diffi
cult, either in public speaking or common
converse, to express themselves intelligi
bly, with any degree of facility—This be
comes a very serious disadvantage.
The living principle of the animal sys
tem, receives its nourishment and support
from food introduced into the stomach, in
order this food should answer the purpos
es of nutrition, it must be properly assim
alated or digested by the juices of the Sto
mach, which arc particularly designed by
nature for that purpose.
But to render it in the power of those
juices to accomplish this all important ob
ject, it fs necessary the particles of our
food should undergo the operation of mas
tication, to effect which, the dental organs
were instituted. Thus our health depends
in a great measure upon the good condition
of teeth—for it is certain that the most nu
tricious food we can take will hot adminis
ter nourishment and strength to the body
unless it be properly digested, and it is
equally true, that without it undergoes a
sufficient degree of mastication before it
enters the stomach, it can never be pro
perly digested—The nutricious mass must
be received into the stomach in a well
comminuted state, so the digestive facul
ties of the juices will be capable of chang
ing it into that condition, suitable to the
capacity ef the absorbents. But when our
masticatory apparatus, the teeth,becomes
partially destroyed or is rendered almost
uselass by decays and disease, the food
passes into the stomach in a crude and
| solid state which is more than the diges
tive juices can manage, and hence occurs
a derangement and disease of this highly
important viscera.
