WEDNESDAY MORNING. DEC. V, 1847? RefWt «f the Committee Ike State of the Repnhllr. The Committee on Uio Stale of the Republic, to whom wan referred a resolution of tho Senate, instructing timeommittee “to make such a report on the subject of tho IViluiot Proviso, as is n just exhibit of the feeling* of the people of'Georgia," bc^ leave to submit the following ns tho result of their deliberation*, fully confident, so.far as we give any expression, that is in unison’ with the public will. The acquisition of territory is legitimately ns- vufiated with the IVilmot Proviso. Wo wifi ab- stain from any utterance upon that subject, at thw time, for the reason that wo may notallagreo. Hut forasmuch ns the ulterior olyect of the Mlmot f Proviso, is to cffecltho Abolition of Shivery, and ■bout which there is no difference of opinion, and forasmuch loo, as wo desire to present an unbroken front, wo will therefore regard mid con sider the question in its ulterior purpo.su leaving . tho acquisition of Torrifory for a future report. Slavery mid Slave labor is § wart and pared of our Governmental systoni, and made so, by the very ancestry, In part of those who now are ac tive in its abolition.—Wo do not regard it res pectful to ounclves, or essential to our right, to cuter into any discussion with thoyo who aru governed by no principle but their funatacism. Indeed tho question has boon argued, but fuuuta- cmn m deaf to argunmut—it will uot hear. Tho people of Georgia havo for a series of years been divided aud disturbed by other ques tions, so much so perlmps as to induce tho false hope, that upon this vital question, there may now prevail discord aod dissontion. This is not bn*; Georgia has but ono mind—is os one man --aU political parties aro ready mid willing to plant themselves upon the same platform, and join heart and hand in tho assertion nun maintain- ft °co °f t £ e * r constitutional right. To the end therefore, that tho fooling* of tho people of Georgia, upon tho subject of the YVil- mot Proviso, may bo distinctly . understood and their position defined, Bo it, therefore, by tho Senate and House or Representatives of the State of Georgia, absolved, liiat the Government of tho United Status has uo control over tho institntibn of Slavery, and tliut in taking or attempting to tako any such control, it transcend* the limits of its legitimate functions. Be it further resolved by tho auUiority afore- ^hat mijr Territory acquired by the arms of the United States, or by treaty w ith a foreign power, becomes the common property of the .Shites composing this confederacy, aud whilst H so continues, it is the right ofeach citi zen, ofeach aud evety State, to rcsido with his property of every description within such lurrito- Resolved Author by tho authority aforesaid, That it is the duty of every man, in evory section of this confederacy, if tho Unioit ho dear to hitn, to oppose the passage olanytaw or resolution of Congress by winch territory acquired may bo subjected to any restrisBotUf against Slavery. And it is further Resolved, fhnt liis Excollon- qr the Governor of this State, cause a copy oftlie foregoing preamble and resolutions to bo for- warded to each of our Senators aiid Represent!!- Swo!nUrE:” l ‘ 0 ' , ° tboG °'' 8 ™>'° ( ' 888b • OUlrc af ike Uearflau In 2d story of Gaudry's building, corner of Bull and Bay streets.

Hiti Excellency, Gi W.

McIntosh was wounded on.tiie 8th of September, aud died of his wounds on tho 1st of October. '• As Col. McIntosh highly distinguished himself in the war with Groat Britain, os well as in this war with Mexico, I trust die Legislature will pass some resolution for die removal ofhis remains to thoir native $tatq. As belaud myself were tho last of dio officers of the arnty, from Georgia, whowaroin it^during tlio war wldi England, ! intent!, if I survive, to carry his remains homo tb Georgia. I, therefore, do not ask any appropria tion from the Legislature, lor this purpose; and only hope, os a matter of StAto pride, that die Le gislature will pass the necessary resolutions—his children, I fear, could not bear tho expense ofhis removal. .
