Thk VVe athf.r and Crops.—On Thursday
night last, we had an excellent rain which com
menced about 12 o'clock and continued until
Friday morning, which has swept off a large
portion of the dust which has been such an an
noyance to our citizens for the last fifty three
days, during which time it had not rained at this
point. Although vegetation in the gardens in
this city has been almost entirely destroyed, ye t
this rain will materially benefit the potatoo and
cotton crops, as the weather was fair again last
evening \\ bilst the farmers have suffered from
the drought, they have had an excellent time to
pick out their matured cotton. We would here
remark that whilst the receipts of cotton at this
place thus far have been to a fair extent, with
regard to the number of bales, which have been
unusually light, not averaging over four hundred
pounds each. This may be owing to the dry
weather, or the result of design, as at the preset!*
prices, the farmer pockets a profit of about one
dollar per hale, on the cost of the bagging and
rope. If this system should continue through,
out the season,it may make a difference of twenty
thousand bales , in the same number compared
with the weight of those last year.
Ihe Albany Patriot says: We have had some
weeks dry and beautiful weather for picking cot
ton The crop in this section though porhaps
the best in cotton region), will not be a full orop
The country continues healthy. Many new set.'
elers are corning, hut there is yet room for thous
ands of others.
It is now generally conceded (says the Selmn
{Ala.) Reporter of the 4tb inst ,) that the cotton
crop will he very short. We not know a single
planter who will make as much as he did last
year. Tl.e corn crops, too, will he very short.
The Savannah Republican of Monday sta'es
t int rice of the new crop is now all cut. The
crop is most abundant, and the grain of a supe
rior quality. l'he weather has been most favora
ble lor harvesting, and continues good, though
a gale now would ho attended with disastrous
consequences. It is said that the crop was never
harvested so late before. The very first of this
new crop is now ready for market, being about
one month b -hind the ordii.ary time at which
new rice is delivered.
Tee Georgetwon Observer, of Octobe 9, says .
“ I he weather lias been clear any cold during
the last week, making us feel like winter was
well ori his way tous Fires in the morning and
evening have been very comfortable. It has
been a glorious week for the rice harvest, and
■our planters have made good use of it Many
have tinislie-l harvest, and at the end of the
week nearly every one will have gotten through
We-till hear of a little sickness about the Dis.
ti iel, !>at none of a serious character.’’
The Nashville Telegraph states that during
Wednesday and Thitrsdat night last heavy frost
f II at Nashville, (Tenn.) and in the surrounding
country. It is estimated that two-thirds of the
tol>,in o crop has hpen seriously damaged.
The Petersburg Inteligenccr of the !)lli inst,
says :On yesterday morning there was quite
a sharp frost, and we should not he surprised if
its effects is fell on the tobacco crop.—This crop
has this year seemed to have been singled out for
disaster. First, a scarcely of plants; next bad
s 'aeons for planting; then drought; after ward a
freshet, which destroyed a good deal on the Ron.
stoke; and lastly, frost. To this we mnv adds
that, in the middle of September, a good deal of
tobacco spotted so badly that whole crops were
cut before the plants matured.
Tho Submi *n>s I’artv. —The Albany Patriot
*avn : “Ft is unfortunate for Georgiaand for the
whole South, at the present, when :he interests
and the honor ufuv ery citizen is equally involv
ed, that there should be any political divisions
among ourselves. It is of the highest importance
that the Stale should move as one man in opposi
tion to the encroach merits of the Federal Govern
ment. It would seem that a common danger
and a common interest should unite every man
in Georgia for common defence. We have
therefore seen with deep regret, indications of a
disposition in some men,ln take advantage of the
state of public feeling, to advance party
pm p ises These of our fellow citizens, who be
lieve that the wrongs we have received from
the Is'oj h would justify a separn ion from the
Federal compact, have yielded their extreme
views, and are willing to co-operate with those
who are willing to confine their mode and urea
sure of resistance within the bounds ofthe Con
stitution. But there are those among us who
appear determined to make every man w ho is in
favor of Constitutional resistance, a distinionist-
Do these men wish to make a party issue of
what should be purely a Southern question .’—
Has the order reitlly gone forth, that the Whigs
of Georgia must stand by the administration,and
leave the South to her fate ? If it is not party
•ascendency that they seek,why do they strive to
place he IVicuds of constitutional re-i.-lunce in i
a false position ? Why do they insist .hat all <
who are prepared to resist the aggressions ofthe
Frvc-soilcrs lire disunionists ? I- it 'heir object ,
to deceive the people, and by continually crying
peace ami union, to operate upon tbeir fears and
.prejudices? I- I his the way that these n.en hope
t ' gain an ascendency ,in the State which the
naople have hitherto refused to give them? And
if they should gain the ascendency, vw need not
-ask what use lin y will make of tin t | ower.
The hisloiy of the past hut too plainly answers
this question. The interests of Georgia and of
'the whole South would be sacrificed to promote
personal or party objects. If the present diffi
-cululiei are not settled to the satisfaction of the
"Houth, who will be to blame ? Most certainly
these very men who have kept tho South divid
ed, and have encouraged the N'orih to contiue
their aggressions Let these men who are con
tinually crying union, coma out and define their
position Do they believe tlint the South figs
suffered no wrong—or do they believe that it is
the duty ofthe South to suffer patiently all the
wrongs which iho North is disposed to inflict?

From the Chtrohte Adcoeate.
To tljp People of (ieoi'gin.
fellow Citiztns —After consultation with *ev"
eral gentlemen from different par sos the State*
during the lute Fair of the Southern Central Ag
ricultural Association held ut Atlanta, the fol
lowing resolutions were adopted:
"■Resulted, Tout a Committee of five be up
poniiited to prepare and publish an Address to
the citizens of the Slate generally, respectfully
calling their attention to the importance of
Common School education, and of some united
aeliun for the advancement of that cause.
''Resolved, That the interests of this great
cause call for united counsel and co-operation of
the entire State; and that for this cud we earnest
ly invite each county to take the subject into
consideration, and to send Deleales to a Con
vention to he hold at such time and place as the
above committee, after consultation, may desig
nate,for the pm pose of maturing some practicable
system of common School education, to be pre
sented to the next Legislature.”
No subject more deeply concerns us as a State,
than that presented in the above resolutions
In ail civilized countries, general education is
considered of vital importance. Ptoperly conduct
ed, it I es at the foundation of all that is valua
ble in the political and social relations of man
kind; and in proportion as it is general, or limit
ed, or thorough, or superficial, so will the State
rank in the scale of real greatness.
The State of Georgia is rapidly advancing in
many respects, to the foremost place among her
sisters ofthe South. Her ua ural advantages and
resourecs are unsurpassed; and the enterprise
and industry of her citizens arc beginning to de
velope these resources and to employ these ad>
vantages. Her population is rapidly increasing;
and her capital begins 10 be largely invested in
works ofinienal improvement and commerce.—
A laudable attention is beginning to be directed
to Agricultural and Artistic improvements, as is
abundantly shown in i lie increasing niimberswbo
attend our great Agrieul ural Fair, and the
interest taken in its exhibitions. In past time,
the appeal in belialfof these various improve,
meins lias been restricted mainly to the more
wealthy and educated, but now it is made to
every class of citizens. All are now invoked,
especially the farmers and mechanics, to enlist
in this common movement for elevating the
Slate in all the elements of true greatness.
In is to be feared, howeve y that ihe most
important means of realising these desires
ami expectations is too much overlooked, lie
fore the people can be efficiently enlisted ill
these enterprises, they must he enabled to un
derstand the nature and extent of the desired im.
provetneuts,the means by which they are to be
uccornplslied, arid the in erest which every citi
zen has in the results In no other way can a
general and steady co-coperation be secured.
Now this is the business of education, intel
lectual and moral, extending t) every class of
our white population.
Georgia lias recognized this truili from the
earliest days of tier existence as a btulc. Her
first Constitution adopted in 1777, provides that
“Schools shall be creeled in each county, and
supported ul the general expense of the Slate."
The endowment of the University,and of Cotin
tv Academies, and appropriations for common
and poor School , have followed at ditTerent pe
riods in obedience to this provision of our first
Constitution. And in addition to these provi
sions by the State, private munificence has fur
nished the means of establishing many valuable
institutions oflcarning for both malcsand females
But while these various institutions furnish a
highly creditable provision for academic learn
ing in our Slate, all the attempts ol our Legisla
tore to establish Common Schools have been
singularly unsuccessful. Various schemes have
been adopted, and then abandoned as failures.
So that after all that has been expended, there is
a lamentable deficiency ofgood Common Schools
in the State. The means of a good common
education are not furnished to the mass of our
pupiila ion. And yet such an education is the
right ufevery citizen under our Constitution
The blessings derived by all from our higher setn
inariesare indeed great,uudwe desire to see them
cherished and sustained ; but yet vastly more is
due to the great body of the people who cannot
avail themselves of these higher ad van. ages.
What then is to he done ? Snail vve allow
this sad deficiency to continue ? Shall this
greatest hindrance to the elevation of our Stale
still exist ? The failure of our common school
systems heretofore is mainly attributable to three
causes :
1. They have not been adapted in their do.
tails to the actual condition and wanjs ofour
population.
2. There lias been no adequate supply of well
qualified common School Teachers.
3. There has been too little interest felt gone,
rally in the subject itself.
To remove these obstacles, and to put in ope
ration some practicable and efficient plan cfgene
ral education, is confessedly a work of great dif
ficulty. This difficulty is felt especially in those
portions of the State where the white popula
tion is very sparse. But yet something must be
done, and we think the undertaking a practica
ble one, if entered upon w ith an earnest zeal.
During the Sessions of our Legislature there
are so many exciting questions, and conflicting
interests, that little time is left for the considera
tion of this subject, about which so few feel any
real concern, in addition to this, few of our
Legislators have either the materials, or the
thorough acquaintance with the subject itself,
from which to digest any comprehensive plan of
general education. Committees have several
times been appointed during the recess of the
Legislature, but they have either failed to report
or been unable tosuggest any practicable scheme.
Perhaps therefore no suggestion promises bet.
ter results than the second resolution under
which we now write. If Delegates be sent from
the several Counties, chosen with reference to this
single matter, we may hope for some good result
from their united wisdom and zeal. We feel
assured that the Legislature would not he back
ward to adopt tile well digested rccommenda.
lions of such a body ; and in any event, the.
meeting and deliberation* of such a Convention
w ould tend to inspire new in crest into the pub.
lie mind on this important subject.
We therefore earnestly invite each County to
take up the subject, and to send Two Delegates
t-i a Convention to lx- held in he Ci vof Macon,
on the Second U KDNEsDAY in DF.Cf MUEK
Next, lor the purpose of taking into consideration
i lie whole question of common school education.
Delegates should go prepared with all the
necessary statistical information ns to the area,
number of childrt n, number of schools, See. —
The first Tuesday in November would probably
he a suitable day fur the appointment of Dele
gates. Let all the friends of common education
whether many or few, determine to act promptly
in this business, that every portion of the Stute
may take part in those de iberationa for the
common welfare. Nothing is more worthy of
our prompt and earnest attention.
Fellow Citizens : This is emphatically the
cause of the I’eople—thet which tends to elevate
and bless every one of our population. It deeply
concerns ur advancement in all the clementsof
true greatness, physical, political, social,
intellectual anil moral. And wo are sure we
utter the feeling of every true Georgian, when
we sav, that in all these charactef islies of great
ness we desire our State to stand unrivalled, not
by the depression of others, but by raising her
self to that commanding position.

GEORGE VV. TOWNS,
Governor of said State.
To the Electors t./ureqf-~Greeling :
Having been officially informed, that the Con
gress of the United State* hns admitted California
into the Union of the States of this Confederacy,
upon equal terms with the original States, a duty
devolves upon me in the performance of which,
I shall trespass upon the public but briefly.
An unfeigned deference for public opinion,
and the profound regard I entertain for the wis
dnm, firmness, and patriotism of my fellow citi
zens of Georgia, will not justify me, in a paper
ot this character, in repeating my known and
unchanged opinion as to the duty of the South
in repelling Iree-soil encroachment, and arrest
ing, by all proper means, usurpation by Congress.
W hatever is compatible with the honor and
obligations of the People of ibis State to the
country, its laws, and its institutions, I doubt
not, will receive their warm support.
In an hour of danger—when your institutions
ure in jeopardy—your feelings wantonly out*
raged, your social organization derided, your
honor deeply wounded and the Federal Consti
tution violated by a series ofnggressive measures
all lending to the consummation of one object,
the abolition of slavery when vour equal right
to occupy and enjoy the common territory of all,
lias been denied you, in the solemn form oflaw,
under pretences the most shallow, it well be
comes you to assemble, to deliberate, and coun
sel together for your mutual preservation and
safety.
Whatever course the extraordinary events by
which we are encompassed, will demand or jus
tify, must be left, as it should be, to the patriot
ism, firmness and prudence of the people them
selves. Upon them devolves the duty of re
dressing present wrongs, and providing other
safeguards, for future security- Neither the one
nor the other of which, however, will ever be
effectually accomplished, until, by patriotic ef
forts, perlect harmony’ and concord of feeling
are restored, and confidence and concert of ac
tion producep among the people of the South.
In view, therefore, of the atrocious free soil
sentiment and policy, not merely of the non
slaveholding States, but of the Government—of
the imminent peril to which the institution of
slavery is reduced by the act of Congress admit
ting the Slate of California into the Union, with
a Constitution containing the principle of the
VV ilmot Proviso, in defiance of our warning and
earnest remonstrance—in view ofthe deplorable
iact that some diversity of opinion exists in some
ofthe Southern States as to the proper mode of
redressing the wrongs, and averting the dangers
which all must see and feel, let me, fellow citi
zens, earnestly entreat you to cultivate for each
other a deep and abiding sentiment of fraternal
regard and confidence. Approach the task, from
which there is no escape, ol deciding upon your
duty to Georgia and the country, with a firm
step, hut not without calm, deliberate and pa
tient investigation, consulting neither fears nor
dangers on the one hand, nor permitting your
seltes, from exasperated feelings of wrong on
the other, to be rashly urged to extreme measures
which have not received the full sanction ofyour
judgment. Then 1 shall not despair of seeing
the whole State, as one man, proposing nothing
beyond what the emergency mny demand, or
failing to perform whatever patriotism, honor
and right, may require at your hands.
Ihe General Assembly of this State, by an
act approved Bth February, 1850, having requir
ed me, upon the happening of certain events, one
of which is the admission of California as a State
into the Lnion, to issue a proclamation, ordering
an election to be held in each and every county
for Delegates to a Convention of the People of
this State, to take into consideration such meas
ures as comport with the extraordinary posture
ofour relations to our eo-Stntes, and to decide
upon what steps are necessary and proper to be
taken compatible with our honor and constitu
tional obligations, as well as more effectually to
secure our right ofproperty iu slaves, and to ar
rest all aggressions, by one section of tho Union,
upon the free enjoyment of the constitutional
rights of tho other, and lastly to preserve invio
late the equality of the States of the Union, as
guarantied under the Constitution : Therefore,
he it known, that I, Grotto* VV. Towns, Gov
ernor ot the Stale ofGeorgin, by the authority
and mnndato of the law, do issue this my Pro.
clamation ordering and directing that the quali
fied Voters fur the most numerous branch ofthe
General Assembly, do meetat the several places
of holding Elections, as fixed bv law. in the sev
era! Counties of this State, within the hours fixed
for voting, on MONDAY, the Twen.v-fifth day
of NOVEMBER Next ; and then and there, by
ballot,elect two Delegates in each ofthe Coun
ties now entitled to one Representative in the
General Assembly, and four Delegates in such
Counties as are now entitled to two Represen
tatives.
The Managers of said Election are required
to certify and forward to this Department the
Returns of said Election in the manner prescrib
ed bv law; for the election of Representatives in
the General Assembly ; and it is further order
ed that the Delegates who may he olected by a
majority of the legal voters of their respective
Counties, do convene at the Capitol of said State
on TUESDAY,the Tenth day of DECEMBER
