Newspaper Page TextMAC ON, G A SATURDAY AFTERNOON, JULY 6. (jj*VVe are indebted to the lion. J. W. Jack sos and J. L. Orr, for valuable public documents and sundry speeches, for wbicli they will please accept our thanks. Wesleyan Female College. —We have received a Catalogue of the Officers and Students of this flourishing literary institution, by which we learn that it now numbers 176 students. The Commencement takes place on Wednesday next, when the annual address will be delivered at the College, by Col. Thomas C. Howard.— The Commencement Sermon will be preached To-morrow Morning, at the Methodist Episcopal Church, by the Rev. E. Evans. The examina tion of the classes begins on Monday morning next. THE FOURTH OF JULY. This was quite a jubilee for the different Sab bath Schools in this city and Vineville, who appeared to great advantage. After forming in procession they proceeded at 9 o’clock A. M., to the Baptist Church, where an excellent address was delivered before them by the Rev. S. Lan drum, after which they marched to their respec* live places and partook of a picnic prepared for the occasion, and were dismissed. At 11 o’clock, a procession was formed in front of the “Lanier House,” in the following order: Battalion of Volunteers. Orator and Clergy. Mayor and Council of the City of Macon. Governor and Ex-Governor of Georgia. Members and Ex-Members of Congress. Judges Supreme and Circuit Courts. Judges and Officers ofßibb Inferior Court. Civic Societies of the City of Macon. Citizens. Which proceeded to the Methodist Episcopal Church, where, after an appropriate prayer by the Rev. Mr. Shanklin, an Eulogy on the life and character of the illustrious and lamented John Caldwell Calhoon, was deli vered by Dr. William H. Ellison, to a very numerous and highly respectable and intelligent auditory. It is but just to say of this eu ogy that it was chaste, eloquent and exceedingly appropriate, and was received by all present with decided approbation. We took no notes at the time, and consequently are not prepared to follow the orator as he traced the course of the illustrious statesman through all the meandering scenes of his brilliant and eventful career of forty years' duration. Ili s allusion to Mr. Calhoun's resignation of the Vice Presidency, in order to serve his native State, was beautiful, and he embraced the occa sion to vindicate the deceased from the charge of selfishness, and said in effect that Mr. C. had always been it conservative Republican, a fearless champion of cons'itulional liberty, and a devoted friend of the South and his own Caro lina, whose fidelity to her honor and interests, entitled him to her unwavering confidence and regard, which lie enjoyed in such an eminent degree through his long and brilliant career The orator closed his beautiful address by au allusion to Mr. Calhoun's faith in li.e Christian Religion, which he confessed some years pre vious to his death, and held up bis spotless char acter illustrated by a well ordered life of moral ity, usefulness and virtue, as one well worthy of emulation by those who succeed him. lie clearly showed that to be truly great wo must he good; and the honors of this world are utterly insignificant, unless sanctified bv the refining influences of Christianity. But we must close this imperfect notice of this happy effort of the orator by the bare remark that we heard but one opinion expressed in relation to it and that vvns, that it was just what it ought to have been. In deed a very intelligeent gentleman from Charles ton remarked to us, that ‘it was well worth hear ing, and every word of it true.’ We hope it may he published, as it ought to be generally read. The Macon Volunteers, Capt. Conner ; the Eloyd Rifles, Capt. Ross ; the Royal Arch Ma' sons ; the Odd Fellows, and a large number of ladies graced the assemblage with their presence on the occasion, and the whole proceedings du ring the day were highly creditable and gratify ing, nothing having occurred to interrupt them in the least degree. MU. BENTON'S SPEECH. Mr. Bentos never delivered a speech that so abounded with his characteristic marks. We have aver in most repulsive display his bravado, —liis unmitigated blackguardism—his dissocial isolation in a common cause with those who were acting with him—his awkward parade of learning, coined for the occasion—the same old Xyclopean labor—and his occasional power ful and home licks. These home licks are the exceptions to the general fabric of his speeches; yet Mr. Benton scarcely ever makes a speech without dealing some of them beforo he is through. We are fur from approving the tone of Mr. Benton’s last speech. The rudeness and unmannerly contempt shewn to as old and dis tinguished a man us Mr. Clay, were abomina ble. The repeated sneers at Mr. Clay's solici tude for the country, and the fiat denial that there teas any danger—any distraction—any fear of the results of the present controversy, evinced tho same old sublimity of impudence and grace ful mendacity, every inch Benlonian. But to give a certain important character his due, no one who will pass over the disgusting egotism ot this speech—its irrelevant episodes and its iieaps of useless lumber, and attentively scan the ar gument against Congressional compromise laws, but must admit its perfect success. The intro duction of this species of legislation into our counsels marks the evil influence of a timid, confused or wretchedly selfish statesmanship It only proves how men are self-cheated and how when a thing becomes greatly desired, it imme diately becomes right. We were self-cheated when wo thought that a portion of these States, which, from an overwenning spirit of cupidity, could break tho Constitution, wilfully break it, ,n one instance, would, through all trials, respect their simple compact in another,and we thought a ny means to obtnin an end so desirable as peace and hoart-union, were sanctified by that end.— - IJt - as Mr. Benton forcibly contends, compro mises that “are fit to be made,” should be be. tween parties that are authorized to make them and when there was authority to enforce them, or penalties for breaking them—or any thing to be compromised. Now it will be readily seen that in the nature ofour legislative organization not one of these essentials of a perfect compro mise can ever attach to one emanating from Con gress. And Mr. Benton only repeats what lias been insisted on in ten thousand instances be fore, that members of Congress are not in Con vention—that no legislative proceeding on the idea that our interests are sectional, in contra distinction from a common weal, can be just and friendly; and more conclusively than all,the last compromises that could be properly or legally made, were made with the Constitution. All this is irrefragable argument, and should be the clue to guide us through the mazes of perplexity, into which fanatical and corrupt men have in volved us. WHAT THEY SAY SOW. The old Fabulist surely must iiave been think ing of the Nashville Convention, when he wrote his fable of “ the Wolf and the Lamb.” The said lamb deserved death, because he muddied the stream at which the wolf had been drinking. But when it was meekly replied that this could not be so, as the little innocent had drunk below his rapine majesty, then he ought to die and should die, because of a falling out between said wolf and said lamb’s grandfather. The hostility to the Nashville Convention grew outofa prin ciple—thatprinciplea wretched one—submission to a majority in Congress, “at all hazards and to the last extremity.” The attacks that were and have been made upon it have been foregone con clusions. Nothing was to propitiate its enemies nothing it was determined should be allowed to do this. First, all the voices of the friends of the call for the Convention united, could not find credit with its opponents, that that meeting was proposed to save, not wreck the Union. O! all the cry was Catiline conspiracy—disunion cabal of crazy ultraists—touch not, taste not they plot the destruction of this glorious Union. Well, after the Convention met, and under the blaze of day—nothing hid under a bushel, and the recorded dignity and decency (that should shame the revilers of that body into better man ners,) as well as the moderation of the proceed ings came back to us, why still, the cry is down with the Convention, it tends to a dissolution of this “ glorious Union,” —it dares to propose the Missouri compromise—impiously proposes this too as the ultimatum of the South. Now, here is the truth in regard to the secret of this captious denunciation. It is the settled policy of a few of our politicians here, to stick by the programme dictated by an inflexible ma jority, let its specifications be what they may. The object ofthis policy is first to preserve party unity. The object of party unity is to secure certain high positions for certain men of the South, who never can, by mere force of talents and desert reach those places. This is all there is in it. And before heaven we believe that if the tempter himself vvete to come bodily and propose as a bonus to these very patriots, tbe coveted honors, if they would sell their country into his bands; they would not take a second thought about ratifying the bargain. They might make one stipulation more, to keep the. fetters from their recreant limbs. Party, party, they are ever crying out to us, when party, other than a Southern, strict construction party, will be the death of us. It is amazing that tbe South ern people will let corrupt presses draw our minds from the fact that tbe day has passed when we can unite our party strength vvitli tbe over shadowing free soil majority power, and have it absorbed by it, and receive an equivalent. The feelings and interests arrayed against us are too well organized and too homogeneous for this. Our power can only be felt and made respecta were but a tith of what our enemies allow it to be, it could be made the propellent force by cast ing it, when the conjuncture was ripe, upon the side that would do the best for us, and could triumph through us. Remember the little “chain chest” is kept to right the largest ship. But with some of our lenders nothing is in dan ger but the party. Our liberties are nestled away in their basket, and so long as that fares well all is well. The Nashville Convention mildly states what every body knew before, that at this day North ern sentiment against the South, was a unit. This statement is darted upon and belabored like a hydra. It is a crying sin, say these lead ers, to utter such a slander against our brethren of tho Northern States. Why look you is not the noble Cass —the noble DicKissoN--the no ble Dodge —the noble Jones —tho noble Ross and Richardson—the noble and the noble ah, ah, the noble what do ye call ’em— and here they stop out of breath. Yes, they get through the whole catalogue like Virgil describ ing his heroes in tl.e regatta, it is noble, noble, all the way through, and it is very soon through with at that. Why, do not these hopeful and charitable oracles remember that in Sodom even, there were some found too good for the fire ? And if it were not a bad time to laugh we might shake our sides until they were sore, at this beg garly muster roll by which we expect to conquor the Millions of heated enemies that gnash their teeth against us. Nothing can shew our weak ness—our complete desertion (much of which is righteous retribution,) so feelingly, as this mea gre list. But nothing but National party unity will do—it is tho panacea for our thousand ills— the Jive gaping wounds into the number No thing but Gen. Cass' election can save the South —can save the Union,—and next we shall hear what Northern Whig can alone go through with this same feat. It is to be regretted that we have not had the rice Presiuent's names given too, for if we are not humbugged here is the rub. Wo now publish to the country in advance of all others, that putting the finger on the «p«t and shewing where the Nashville Convention pinch es is our thunder. A certain Northern man who dont know his own position on the slavery ques tion, and who fogs and has fogged the minds of his supporters on the chapter of his doctrines of the subject, is to be President, and one of his todies South of Mason & Dixon’s line is to be Vice. Mark the game, and in it, if wo are not to be gabled off again, as we were when Gen. Taylor was elected. [ Cor reeled Weekly, Jor the Southern Tribune.
