like Corwin, should presume to run it. —

I THE COTTON PLANTER’S FAIR.
■ Akrasc.ements for the Exhibition. —Y\ e
■ rode down to Camp Oglethorpe yesterday mor-
■ nrag and were well pleased with the progress
■of things th re. Some eight or ten structures
■of various kinds are now nearly completed, be-
■ sides those already on the ground. The house
■ for the exhibition of Foreign and South-
■ rrn manufactured goods is spacious, secure,
■ and well built. Its foundation rests up-
■ brick pillars, and it has a nicely laid floor,
■an I is neatly ceiled in the inside and provided
■ xth an abundance of glass windows. It is a
■ iarge and substantial building, and will be the
[ I iaest place for a dance in the city of Macon,
■ when its present purpose has been accomplish-
■ rd. There’s many a beau who will “ dance
■ all night (ill broad day light and go home with
■ the g» »in the mornin’ ” from Camp Oglethorpe,
I when the Fair, tight times and political trou-
I Hes are over. The grounds are also provided
I with a double row of covered stalls, about a
I quarter of a mile long, or less, which will cer
e| tainly be ample for all occasion of that kind.—
I E.ti ui houses and office buildings make up
I remainder, and to conclude, a substantial
I r trum has been built, from which we may
■ ,-rp.’ t > perfect cataract of eloquence.
I If there he any deficiency in the provision of
I house ro<>tn, we suspect it will be found in that
■ r manufactured goods, of which the supply
I iTomisis to be large. The ship Henry has
| t yet arrived, but was spoken on the 9th
I and will doubtless soon be in Savannah River.
\ large lot of foreign goods will be received by
ii. X r York steamers, and the Secretary is
adv-d that $75,000 worth will be sent from
i. inimd. All this will need a large space.

Election of Presidential Electors.
i i" not at all probable, but it is, neverthe-
•'S within the range of possibilities, that Lin
n may not yet be elected President. Possi
’ y. though by no means probably) it may
f ' b yet occur to some of the non-slaveholding
>. that the Union is worth more to them
flip election of Abraham Lincoln, and at the
• ' niu hour they might direct their Electors
< i <r some man not committed to the irre-
" le conflict against our social organiza-
" e would not like to be understood as
• coring any hope or expectation of such a re
! we merely say it is not impossible. There-
T’*. we 'hould lie in favor of electing Presiden
ts ’< < tors in Georgia, in order to be prepared
'' " such a remote and improbable contin-
South Carolina has chosen electors, and
*' »mi’d have Georgia do the same; so that if
la<t moment, a better mind should pre-
■ ong the New York electors, and they
<i 1 tender a fair man of their own choosing.
x, tithern States, advised of the fact, might
•r and elect him. \\ e submit this as one
—>n why we should not be in favor of the
vernor’s recommendation not to elect electors
in Georgia.
The People Against the Policians."
1 pretty strong illustration of this is given
th Milledgeville Dailies yesterday. The
I- rdcr publishes a speech of the Hon. B. 11.
:J .of Troup, in favor of a policy of waiting
t’ of a demand for a repeal of the an
slave laws, and for Lincoln to en
-1 e that demand against the Northern States;
*"d th- Federal I nion publishes the proceed
*fa pretty thorough resistance meeting in
r m. composed nine, out of teu, by Mr. Hill’s
51 g constituency. The Troup meeting pass
’ll the following resolution :
j*/.—That we unqualifiedly con
'•’’mi the election of Abraham Lincoln and
He sibil Hamlin to the Presidency and Vice
: x iency of the United States, because they
:c '' been elected by a sectional party whose
» : •> have been, and still are, to destroy the
< . iality of the States, of the government, and
'•-•At their election should not be submitted to
by the Southern people.
And the official proceedings say :
" fine the committee was out. Rev. E. B.
•’•ague. Dr. Stanley, J. S. Walker. Prof. W.
Johns, Hon. E. Y. Hill, of Alabama, and G. A.
Bull, being called for addressed the meeting,
and took strong grounds in favor of immediate
secession.
Truly the people arc ahead of the politicians.
OFFICIAL VOTE OF GEORGIA.
The official canvas of the vote of Georgia on
the Electoral tickets, not including the county
<4 Tatnall, is published in the Federal I nion
yesterday. Taking the highest man on each
• ket, it runs a« follows: Breek. 51,893; Bell
-->.’>s; Douglas 11,580. This would make
** joint majority of Bell and Douglas, 2,542.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGLL
The Convention Bill.—The Bill calling a
i Convention ot the People of Georgia to deter
mine upon the mode and measure of resistance
to Northern agression, passed the House on the
20th, unanimoutly— the yeas and nays being
called. The election of delegates takes place on
the 2d, of January, and the Convention sits at
Milledgeville, on the 16th. It gives those counties
sending one representative, two, and those en
titled to two, three delegates. Per diem and
mileage same as in the General Assembly.
The Presidential Election—Message of
the Governor.—ln the Senate, a special mess
age was received from His Excellency the Gov.
in reference to the election of electors for the
Presidency and Vice Presidency of the United
States, and was taken up and read. The mess
age recommends that Georgia shall not vote in
this election. It was made the special order for
Wednesday in the Senate, and in the House re
ferred to the Committee on the State of the Re
. ; public.
A Recess.—A resolution to take a recess un
i til the 23d January is.before the Legislature, on
i motion of Mr. Hartridge, for the purpose of
hearing from the Convention, and perhaps
' avoiding unnecessary legislation of a Federal
i character, such as the election of U. S. Sena
! tors.
Bills Introduced.—Among a great many
|we notice the following: In the Senate, by Mr.
j Jordan of Pulaski, a bill to abolish the usury
I laws By Mr. King, of Glynn, a bill to facili
tate the construction of the Macon & Bruns
wick Railroad. By Air. Tracy, of Bibb, a bill
to amend the incorporation acts of the South
Western Rail Road Company, and to authorise
them to’ build a Branch Road.
in the House a bill w r as passed to change the
time of holding the Superior Courts of Bibb
County.
THE HOLMAN TROUPE.
This 'Troupe, we learn from Mr. Busch, the
gentlemanly Agent, will give their first enter
tainment in this place on Friday night next.—
The Atlanta papers speak of their performance
in that city in terms of commendation. But
then the best way to judge of such things is for
all to go and see for themselves.
"If No Bank Suspension ' does not find
himself printed in to-day's paper, he may rea
sonably infer that the foreman has ruled him out
for being late, and that he will have a hearing
to-morrow.
PUBLIC MEETINGS.
We publish the proceedings of large public
meetings in Houston, Dooly and Monroe—all
for secession.
ATTENTION "MINUTE MEN.”
It is hoped that every "Minute Man” in Ma
con will assemble at Concert Hall, on Friday
night. In addition to addresses from Messrs.
Tracy, Andei-son and others, business of the
greatest importance will be presented ioradjudi
cation. Let us devote a few minutes to the hon
or and interest of the South. Let every mem
ber come in lull regalia. SECESSION.
MEETING OF THE MACON GUARDS.
Armory Hall, Nov. 16, 1860.
At a meeting of the Macon Guards, Ensign
Menard in the Chair, the following was offered
by a committee appointed for that purpose and
unanimously passed:
“ .Resolved, That the thanks of this corps are
hereby tendered to our late Captain, J. R.
Griffin, for the efficiency, ability and dignity
with which he has commanded this corps from
the date of its organization to the present time.”
Ensign MENARD, Chairman.
11. J. Peter, Sec’y.
For the Telegraph.
Macon, Nov. 20, 1860.
Mr. Editor:—As an erroneous impression
I has been made upon the community, as to the
i action of the committee of the "Floyd Rifles,”
in the military convention, which recently as
sembled in Milledgeville, as Captain of that
corps, and Chairman of that committee, I beg
the use of your columns, to place them in a
proper position before their fellow-citizens.—
Among the many resolutions submitted to the
convention for their consideration, there was
one with the following preamble :
"Whereas, we the representatives of the Vol
unteer Soldiery of the State, believe that Geor
gia can no longer remain in the Union, consist
ently with her safety and best interest, <£c.”—
A majority of the committee who were present,
thought the introduction of the preamble un
wise, as it might bring a p-d'tical element into
our military organizations, which would be in
jurious to, if not subversive of, the objects con
templated in our formation, and therefore in
structed me to cast the vote of the corps in the
negative, which I did, stating to the convention,
that we had no authority to commit the compa
ny, either for or against the position assumed
in said preamble.
This was the position of several other repre
sentatives, who voted with us in the negative.
For this vote, we have been charged as being
subinlssionists. The inference after the expla
nation made is a forced one, as the object of the
committee was to commit the corps, neither to
submission or secession, leaving that to them in
their capacity as citizens, to act for themselves.
I imagine that the 18 companies who voted with
us, are as bitterly opposed to submission to re
publican aggressions, as were those who differed
with us in that convention. We find no fault
with them for their vote, but we protest against
a misconstruction of our own. We make no
vain I>oa«t, but we believe, should danger threat
en our homes or our rights, we will as a corps,
be equal to the emergency. This much I have
thought due to my corps, for their honor and
reputation are dear to me. Misrepresentation
of my own position has been so common I need
not state it here. Suffice it to say, that lam
| opposed to submission, and am in favor of bold,
strong resistance, under the Constitution and in
the Union. When constitutional remedies fail,
we have but one alternative, which is the pre
rogative of a people, who know their rights and
will maintain them — revolution at any cost and
j to the last extremity. Respectfully,
I T. HARDEMAN, Jr.
THURSDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 22, 1860.
PUBLIC MEETING IN DOOLY.
Vienna, Nov. 17, 1860.
In accordance with a previous call one of the
largest and most respectable concourses of the
citizens of Dooly which ever met in the county,
convened at the Court House so-day atl I o’clock,
to take into consideration the political welfare of
the Stat j.
On motion of Dr. Chas. H. Colding, Col. Eli
jah Butts was called to the Chair, and V. A.
Coley and Homer M. Key, Esqs., requested to
act as Secretaries.
The Chair then made a brief statement of the
object of the meeting, after which, on motion of
Shepard Rogers, Esq., a committee of five con
sisting of the following named gentlemen Shep
ard Rogers, Esq., Joseph Armstrong, Esq., Wm.
B. Cone, Lemuel C. Coppedge and John J. Col
lier, Sen., was appointed by the Chair to pre
pare and report suitable resolutions for the ac
tion of the meeting.
The committee obtained leave to withdraw for
consultation, when Col. John B. Colding being
called on by the Chair, responded in a few ap
propriate and patriotic remarks.
After a short absence the commmithje return
ed and reported the following preamble and res
olutions :
W hereas the recent election of Abraham Lin
coln and Hannibal Hamlin to theofticss of Pres
ident and Vice President, respectively by the
people of the non-slaveholding States, together
with their persistent and wrongful interference
for a series of years with the institution of slave
ry at the South by such aggressive measures of
intolerance as to render it no longer a question
of doubt that the Federal Legislature will soon
adopt measures for the abolition of slavery in
the District of Columbia, for the abolition of
slavery in all places within the slaveholding
States purchased by the United States for the
erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dock
yards, navy-yards, and other like purposes for
the suppression of the slave trade between the
slaveholding States, for the prevention of the ad
mission into the Union in future of any new
State, the Constitution of which may tolerate
the institution of slavery, and repeal, or so far
modify the fugitive slave law as to render it
nugatory, and thereby not only violate the Con
stitution of the United States, but wholly break
down and destroy the rights of the South under
that instrument; and whereas Georgia in her
sovereign capacity as a State on her enterance
into the Union, reserved to herself or to her
people all powers not delegated to the United
States by the Constitution nor prohibited by it
to the States, and believing that her best inter
est and her honor as a sovereign State and inde
pendent government require that she should
prepare to meet all encroachments in a calm and
manly spirit of resistance. Therefore
I#£. Resolved, That we deem it of paramount
importance that the General Assembly now in
session, pass an act authorizing and requiring
his Excellency, the Governor, to call a Con
vention of the people of the State under such
regulations as the Legislature may in its wis
dom devise.
2nd. Resolved, That William F. Brown, our
Senator, and James O. Farnell, our Represen
tative in the General Assembly, be, and they
are hereby earnestly requested to advocate,
vote for, and insist on the passage by the Leg
islature, of the Bill introduced by Mr. Hill, of
Troup, having for its object the call of a Con
vention, in accordance with the views express
ed in the above resolution.
3r<7. Resolved, That in the opinion of this
meeting, it is the duty of the Legislature of
this State, to devise means to have the people of
Georgia represented in a General Convention
of the slaveholding States.
±th. Resolved, That a copy of these resolu
tions be forwarded to our Senator and Represen
tative,'and that they be published in the Georgia
Telegraph and Southern Recorder, and that all
papers in the State friendly to the cause be re
quested to copy them.
After the reading of the preamble and reso
lutions, Mr. Rogers, the Chairman of the Com
mittee, made a short address to the meeting,
calling upon all present for a free expression of
opinion, as to tile adoption of the resolutions.
Mr. Armstrong was then called on, who re
sponded in an appropriate address, advocating
the resolutions, and insisting at some length,
on the right of a State to secede, and its duty
to jlo so in certain contingencies. The speaker
then drew a parallel between the parties now
and in 1850, and showed conclusively, that
many of the contingencies contemplated by the
Union party of 1850, and embodied in the Geor
gia Platform, had occurred, or would necessa
rily occur, in consequence of the election of
Lincoln.
MEETING IN MONROE.
On Saturday the 17th inst., according to a
previous call, a very large, respectable and in
telligent portion of the citizens of Monroe Coun
ty met in the Court House to take into consid
eration the political condition of our Country,
and to counsel together in reference to the
election of Abraham Lincoln and Hannibal
Hamlin to the Presidency and Vice Presidency
of these United States.
The meeting was organized by calling Col.
J. S. Pinckard,Hon. Hiram Phinazee, and Hon.
David Ogletree to the Chair, and requesting J.
R. Rawles, and F. T. Polhill, Esqrs., to act as
Secretaries.
The meeting was highly entertained by ele
gant and patriotic addresses from Hon.H.Phina
zee, Hon. F. S. Bartow, and Hon. R. P. Trippe.
The Chair, on motion of Hon. C. Peeples, ap
pointed the following gentlemen, a Committee
of fifteen to report business for the meeting:
C. Peeples, R. L. Roddey, O. C. Phelps, R. T.
Trippe, A. Davis, J.R. Banks, L. B. Alexander,
E. H. Walker, J. S. Stephens, D. McCowan, J.
T. Crowder, A. Middlebrooks, B. Zelmer, M.
Clower, and W. A. Hartsfield. Whereupon
the following preamble and resolutions were
unanimously adopted:
The people of Monroe County assembled to
consult as to the present political condition of
the country, and to consider what their rights,
interests, and honor demand in the crisis, do
resolve as follows—
That w’e cordially approve of what we have
understood to be the recommendation of the
Joint Committee dn Federal relations in the
General Assembly of the State to-wit:
That the present crisis in our national affairs
demands resistence on the part of the State of
Georgia, and that we recommend a convention
of the people at an early day, to determine the
mode, measure, and time ot redress.

SPEECH OF HON. HENRY L. BENNING.
The speech of Judge Benning at the Capitol,
on Monday evening last, was listened to by a
large and attentive audience. The learned
speaker made an able argument, and defended
the cause of the South with zeal and eloquence.
We have not space to attempt even a synopsis of
the able argument of Judge Benning. He has
been called upon by a number of gentlemen for
a copy of his remarks, and they will appear in
this paper as soon as received. We are also in
formed that the speech will be published in
pamphlet form for general circulation among the
people.— Federal Union.

Highly Important News from
Attorney Gen. Black’s Views on Sscession.
Southern Members Dissenting.
President's Message, &c,
Washington, Nov. 21.—1 tis understood
here that Attorney General Black has prepared
a lengthy opinion on the right of secession, tak
ing a negative position, which is believed will
form a basis for the Presinent’s Message on
that subject, in addition to his usual annual
Message. It is believed that the subject was
brought up in the Cabinet yesterday,and South
ern members dissent upon the legal view of the
subject.
Government has official information that the
notorious Montgomery and others have com
menced operation in Kansas, by ’”*nging and
killing pro-slavery men, and threatening to
compel an adjournment of the land sales in De
cember. Letters received here previously state
that Montgomery’s force amounted to 500 men,
with plenty of arms and ammunition, and other
material aid—that from time to time war-like
supplies have been received from the North.—
Wl iters also say that a demand to adjourn the
land sales will be resmted to as a pretext for
raising an armed force, the real object being a
lawless organization, and raid upon the frontiers
of Missouri, Arkansas and Western Texas.
Gov. Medary who is now here,and well post
ed in regard to Montomery’s plans and designs,
will be dispatched immediately to Kansas, and
Federal troops will at once be moved to such
points as may be necessary for the protection
of the people, land offices, public property, &c.
F’t. Scott has been named as one point to be in
vaded.
It is reported that Montgomery assumes the
name of abolitionist in the fullest meaning of
the term.

NEfIRO SUFFRAGE IN NFW YORK.
New York, Nov. 21.—The returns from the
State are now nearly all in, and the majority
against removing the Constitutional restriction
against Free Negro Suffrage is about 112,000.
[New York imposes areal property qualification
on free negroes of $250, and the last Black Re
publican Legislature submitted to the people a
Constitutional amendment repealing this res
triction. It seems the Northern Empire State
has a mind after all that the practical applica
tion o( negro equality doctrines shall be confined
to the South. ]
Bloody Doiuga Anticipated in Kansas.
Washington, Nov. 21.—Rumors from Kan
sas say that large bodies of armed Pro-slavery
men and Free Soilers have assembled in the
Southern part of that Territory near Fort Scott,
and bloody doings are shortly expected. An
outbreak is anticipated, about the time of the
Land Sales at Leavenworth, if not sooner.
Suspension of the Farmers’ Bank of 1 Vir

RiciimoND, Nov. 21.—The Farmers’ Bank of
Virginia suspended specie payments to day.—
The Banks resolved to pursue a course of policy

The other Virginia Banks will follow the ex
ample of the Farmers’ Bank, as a providential
measure during the present financial pressure.
