We are almost persuaded to say, seeing our
hopelesa and disgusting dissenlions, that jf the
Subtnissionists will do throughout our State,
what the Chatham Union party have done, lay
down an ultimatum, that it would be but to adopt
this platform and all get on it. For nothing we
may remonstrate against—no limitations to rob
bery that we may assign, will have the least ef
fect. For the truth is, we have behaved so piti
fully in redressing our injuries, that from haling
the North has come to heartily despising u s.—
No Yankee Algerine thinks for a moment that
there is any more harm in a Southern “Fire
eater,” than there is in a snail—and he is ready
to swear that a Submissionist is on hit side. —
For this reason, we are almost ready to agree
that if the Convention will say that if Congress
shall free the negroes in Georgia—or if that be
too ultra, if it shall ordain a separation—if after
they are freed, they be made voters also, we say
we are almost ready to agree that we then “move
to adjourn," as a certain print in the State wishes
it to do anyhow. We need not be afraid, we
Resistance men, of any such ultimatum, for it
will be reached by Congress.
Before Heaven we believe that the Govern
ment notoaims at universal emancipation—and
after this is accomplished, the same spirit of
infernal legislation will guarantee to the libera
ted the right of suffrage. And pray why not ?
Why cannot a Yankee pirate, by a parity of rea
soning, say thaPthe rights of the freeman should
go along with his personal liberty, and the right
to vote is “a heaven-descended, God-given right"
that must be enforced.
But this driving down the stakes will not be
done up here in the “black belt." On this line
no “graves are to be dug," for the good reason
that there is great danger that we may be called
on to occupy some of them. No man who deals
honestly by this people, will deny —no man
need deny, that there is a party in this very
Slate, organized—yes organized, for the very
purpose of being eternally blind, — and if the
tliundura ofeivil wreck must force them to hear
they are resolved not to heed. Submission any
how —submission “ at every hazard and to the
last extremity” is their watchword, and there is
no “ use in multiplying words” with such men.
We must turn over anew leaf—adopt anew
policy. The crisis is too awful—the evils im
pending, if they are let to fall on us, are too
irremediable to be paltered with after the present
fashion. We must bring our power,—moral,
social and political, to bear at home on men who
are leagued against us. And that man who is
ready to barter liberty, honor and safety fo r
“Union"—that man whom nothing can arouse
to the rescue—he who has all his denunciations
for us and none for our enemies, must now and
hereafter, to all time, be counted by this State,
in the language of Mr Toombs, with the “base
Judean, who for thirty pieces of silver, threw
sway a tidier pearl than all his tribe."
31K. COBB'S SPEECH.
In accordance with previous notice, the Hon.
Howeli. Cobb addressed a public meeting in
this city, on Tuesday last, which occupied up
wards of two hours in its delivery. We have
neither time nor space to give even a synopsis of
all the points discussed by the speaker. Me
commenced by a review of the late action of
Congress, and unqualifiedly acquiesced in the
measures adopted by tliat body, and thought the
South ought to do likewise, inasmuch as no
lection or party had triumphed over the othe r
in the pessage of the bil Is referred to. He denied
that the Constitution had been violated in the
admission of California, compared her limits
with Texas, and thought had it been a slave
State, that the opposition to its admission would
tint have been so violent at the South.
On being asked by Col. Poe to state how the
South had triumphed over the North in the pas
sage of the bills, Mr. Cobb alluded to the organ
ization of Territorial Governments for Utah and
New Mexico in which the “non-intervemion
principle prevailed.” Now Mr Cobb failed to
slate that during the passage of these very hills
in the House, an amendment was offered by a
Southern man, declaring the Mexican law abol
ishing slavery in those Territories, ns superseded
by ours, which was rejected by a Northern ma.
jority of thirty-nine votes we believe. Now we
would ask any candid man if this even tolerates
“non-intervention," when taken in connection
with the fact that Judge McLean, Daniel
Webster, Hssrv Clav, Lewis Cass, T. Cor
win, and Messrs. Steph r.ss, Toomfs and thous
ands of others, and we believe a decided major
ity of both Houses of Congress, believe that the
said Mexican law does prevail there to the ex
clusion of slavery from these Territories ? If
the North intended to open these Territories by
practical non-intervention,why did not Congress
declare the Mexican law repealed and guarantee
the protection of the slaveholder to enjoy the
peaceable possession of his slaves in any portion
of these Territories ? This would have placed
the thing beyond doubt It is no answer to say
that the people of the Territories can deride the
question of slavery for themselves, when the
[alaveholder is virtually prohibited from going
• here, by the danger he would encounter in
defending it against those prejudiced against it
Jle next cited the failure of the North to pass the
pVilmot Proviso. Why should they pass it,
'•hen they openly declare they will get every
'“ot of those Territories as free soil, by waiting
* few years hence ? Can any man bo deceived
in the course of the North in this matter, who
bastaken any trouble to inform himself? Sure
ly not. Even Mr. Cobb admits that if these
Territories have not boen opened to the slave
•older, the South has been wronged. We agree
pith him here, and believe that they have not.
Haulier will be, so far as the North is concerned,
next resorted to the abolition of the slave
in the District of Columbia, and contended
B" ai no harm had been done, inasmuch as it wa,
Bely reviving the old Maryland law and similar
B'lh.'U of our own Stnte repealed at the last ses
■“'n. There is a vital difference “in the princi
■' °f the thing." When did Maryland or
■■'-'ifgia pass laws emancipating slaves brought
their limits for sale ? Never.
Cobb then alluded to the Fugitive Slave
which passed without amendment, (but
B “-“is few Northern votes in its favor however)
and thoughtit would be faithfully executed at
the North, and exhorted the South to stand by
the North in the present contest, as he believed
the friends of the “glorious Union" would final
ly triumph. He believed no injury had been !
done the South, and denounced every species of
resistance as only another name for disunion
He admitted that if he believed that the South
had been injured be would resist, but as lie was
, of a different opinion, he advised submission at
all hazards and to the lasi ext emity Hecanno* j
therefore blame those who think that the South j
has been wronged for resisting further aggressions, 1
which we apprehend will he done, whether he |
joins the phalanx or not. If no harm has been |
done we think the majority in Congress were ;
very much to blame in wasting nine months of
the session, at $8 per day each, in adjusting these
simple and harmless measures. But we will
dismiss the subject now with the remark that
we candidly believe Mr. Cobb utterly failed in
strengthening the faith of the timid, or making
a single convert to his doctrine of submission.
NULLIFICATION NORTH-RESISTANCE
SOUTH.
One is only the exercise of t lie sovereign pow
er of the lords of the soil the other is the out
break of the rebellious and discontented spirit
of Southern ultraism, that must be tamed by the
halter. This is not the Yankee interpretation
of the thing bless you, but practically it is wha t
the submission leaders and the branch press of
the Yankees here, make out of it. There is not
the least injustice in this allegation—and that
there is not, let us mark the conduct of these
parlies. Take up any sheet in this State devo*
ted to the interests of free soil, and what one do
we see denouncing the outrageous rebellion
now wagiog against this Government in the
States of Massachusetts and Michigan particu
larly, and all over the land of blue noses and
hypocrites generrlly. Not one that we know of
is engaged in the dutiful and honest work of
publishing to their readers the true state of this
open war against the Government of the United
States, and the rights of property of Southern
citizens. But we will tell you what you will
see until one's soul is sick. Reproaches false as
Satan and foul as his pit,against every prominent
patriot in the borders of these States, that has
uttered one manly defiance to the “foul domin
ation’’ of the North, or a warning word to his
own outraged people. We will tell you what
you may see instead, all sorts of mawkish and
maudlin stuff about a Union that has now be
come a yoke of iron upon our necks, and false,
gluzing apologies for the tyrants that have made
it so. You will see taunting banters to South,
ern men to produce the instances of wrong and
injury, for they cannot see them. The New
York Herald and journal of Commerce may
argue our cause nobly, and state our grievances
in such a light, as to confound the perpetrators
of them, but yet Mr. Toombs, and Mr. Toombs’
toadies cannot see how it is.
But speak if you dare of the Nashville Con
vention, and they, in the twinkling of an eye>
can tell you a great deal, and of what nobody
ever before was wise enough to dream of. Then
° •
it is, that these conveniently blind watchmen,
can see farther into a millstone than he that
perks it, and the world is aioused from its deep
sleep, to come and gave at a pack of “rebels and
disunionists," Who deserve no qoaiter in this
world, or mercy in the next. But when the
talk is about an empire, out of which we have
been kicked—yes, literally robbed out of, why
mum is the word—or charity—glorious Union—
Southern hotspur, and fire-eater—and that is all
you can yet out of the allies of our dear Northern
brethren.
Take the case of Messrs. H iiohk.i and Knight,
if you please, and is there not enough about this
enormity, to make every man in Georgia swear
undying hate and war on this Union. Yet who
denounces this ignominious shame upon f!ie
honor of this State—this bare-faced nullification
of a law passed for the protection of our rights ?
Why to fire-eaters—resistance men, is only left
the task of calling out and calling in vain, upon
our people to note this sign of their impending
fate. But how was it when Hamlet was sur
rendered in the city of New York, before the
rally against the law > Why these very men
were thrown into fits, at the beautiful perform
ance of this wheel of the Omnibus. Nothing
at all like it, in the history of legislation—atld
the fire-eaters were hissed at and pelted around
town with their prophecies of its failure. But
now the blood of the Adamses and the Quincies
is up against us, and “topaz and ebony ” are both
keen for our blood—and Southern watchmen
are as blind as young puppies.
But we hope, wo ardently hope, that now the
Southern Rights party in Georgia have a ease
that is their own, they will never lay down their
arms until every man in Georgia becomes the
avenge.r of Me'ssrs. Hiishf.s and Knight.—
Those who have done us the honor to read this
“obscure sheet," know very well, that for a long
time past we have urged the idea, that upon
the fugitive slave question we had our vantage
ground,—and that through this question, rightly
brought home upon the merchants of New York,
Boston and Philadelphia, we had an invinciblo
agent, by which wo might protect ourselves and
save this country.
If the Convention should, under the lead of
“that base Judean,” Robert Toombs. determine
to disgrace this State, and adjourn without pro
viding for our honor, then let petitions flow like
a spring tide to Milledgoville, urging the Gov
ernor to call the Legislature together. Then
we believe, that constituted as that body now is,
of a majority of Southern Rights men, a law can
ho passed suspending the collection of every
debt due the Yankee States that have nullified
the Fugitive Slave law, where ws are interested.
We have long thought upon this grievous con
troversy with the North, and viewed it in every
light accessible to ns, and this is the only plan
we see that will be effectual. That it will, we
nre so sure, that we would he willing to plnro
our head under the guillotine, until the expert
ment was tried, and pay the forfeit if it did not.
In three months this law of retaliation would so
damage credit between the Noath and South,
that it would utterly prostrate the Southern
trade. If if did this, to a man it would rally the
merchants at the North to our side—at least all
those interested in our trade—and then we
would have the miscreants dead, who have
wrought to our ruin for years back. We would
then crush these wretches as they have well
nigh crushed us—by dividing them. Millions
of money would be launched out to subsidize
our cause, and by men who now are red mouthed
abolitionists. If it did not have this effect why
even then we would be gainers, for still credits
would be deranged, as we stated by our law,and
this breaking up trade with us at the North,
would infallibly build up our ownports. So any
way, we must gain.
But Mr. Toombs will say the law would be
uneonstittutional. Well yes—probably lie will,
and no doubt our Hamilcar thinks anything
unconstitutional that his State may do, that
wou*d make President Fillmore think lightly
of his treason.
But we hold this suspension of debts due a
State until justice was first done us, is not un
constitutional. We are advised that the power
of a State to pass suspension laws, is a disputed
one, and if it is, in the name of Heaven, let the
South, all of whose rights are now disputed,
have the benefit of the doubt. But if it were
unconstitutional, what of it > In sharing out the
good things of this “blessed Union," shall the
Yankees get them all ? Is treason to the Con.
stitulion all to be monopolized by the North ?
Shall the North break the Constitution to ruin
us, and we not be allowed to do the same, to
save ourselves ? Let “base Judeans” talk thus
no Southern heart will.
We have, we repent, in the four base and lying
charges and arrests of two citizens of this State)
a sufficient cause to go before the country and
the world with. Let these men s names be
placed upon our banners, and if Georgians can
arouse themselves once more from the dust and
ashes of repreach, in which we all have been
cast down, lot us do it, and show ourselves equal
to the spirit and noble pride ofthe Grecian who
said his idea of a good Government was, one that
resented an injury done to the hnmhlest citizen
jn the State, as an injury done to ail.
Southern Rights meeting in
Houston.
Pursuant to notice, the friends of Southern
Rights and the Union with the Constitution as
sembled oil Wednesday, 30th ult., in the Cour*
House at Perry.
On motionxif Mr. Pringle, the meeting wasor
ganized by calling upon the Hon. C. B. Strong
and Dr. Chas. West to act as Presidents, and
Win. D. Griffin and Josiali Bazemore as Secreta.
ries.
After the object of the meeting had been stated
by the presiding officers in a spirit and munner
becoming the occasion, and which was respond
ed to by the cordail acclamations of the enthu.
siastic assembly, S. D. Killen, Esq , moved for
the appointment of a Committe of Fourteen to
represent each District in the County for the
purpose of submitting a Preamble and Resolu
tions as the Platform of our principles.
The Chair appointed the followinggentlemen
to wit: S. D. Killen, E. J. McGehee, Howell
Cobb, Jno. M. Giles, Alexander Lee, John Bar
ton, Shepherd Rogers, Jas. W. Belvin, S. R
Ham, John Killen, Win. P. Mount, Daniel
Adams, Daniel Fudge and John A. McKay.
Esqrs.
When the Committee retired, Rufus W. Mc-
Cune, Esq , was loudly called for, and in a speech
of considerable length, he portrayed the griev.
ances under which the South are laboring. Dis
claiming the design of Disunion, as charged tip
on us by our accusers, he maintained with an
energy and power of argument rarely equalled,
as well as by torrent of resistless eloquence that
the recent measures of Congress could not be
“honorably acquiesced in” by men who have
the “intelligence to understand their rights and
spirit to defend them ” At the conclusion of
t his admirable speech, Mr. Killen, as Chairman,
reported the following Preamble and Resolu
tions, which, on motion of Dr. Edmund J. Me-
Gehee, »ere adopted with but one dissenting
voice.
Whereas, the Governor of Georgia, in obedi
ence to an act of the last Legislature, has issued
his Proclamation, ordering and directing an E
lection tr ie held in the several Countiesof this
Slate, for Delegates to a Convention, to be con
vened at the Seat of Government, on the 10th
day of December next, for the purpose of taking
;nto consideration the many aggressive measures
persisted in by the North upon the institutions
of the Southern States, and as far as possible
and consistent with the provisions of the Feder
al Constitution, to redress past wrongs and in.
*ure sufficient protection for the future: And,
we having an abiding confidence in the capacity
of ilie people for self government, when not
misled by dishonest polticians or designing men;
and, therefore, apprehend no danger from their
meeting to consult for theirsafety. And feeling
and believing, as we are constrained from past
history, to feel and belive, that the spirit of
Northern aggression, unless resisted by the South
in a spirit and resolution, commensurate with
that evinced by our aggressors, that the Federal
Legislature will soon adopt such restrictive mea
sures against the institution of slavery, as great
ly to injure and impair the dearest interests of
the slaveholding States : And deeming it a du
ty which we owe to ourselves, our posterity, and
the cherished recollection we have for our pa
triotic sires, who pledged their lives, their for
unes, and their sacred honor in the establish,
ment of our Government; that we lend our aid
jn carrying on the work already begun of asser
ting in a manly, firm, yet, oalm and considerate
manner, our rights as equals in the Confederacy,
and of repelling all encroachments upon such
rights, from whatever sourre they may arise.
Wo, therefore, the Southern Rights Paty of
the County of Houston, do adopt the following
Resolutions :
1. Resolved, That we sanction and approve the
manly and patriotic course ofour last Legislature,
and also that of the Executive in vindication of
Southern Rights and Southern Honor.
2. That in our opinion, he who counts the
danger of defending his own honor, is already
degraded;' the people who count the costs of
maintaining their political righs, are ready foT
slavery.
5. That we condemn aa justly meriting the
indignation of every true Southern man, the es.
fori* ofthe North, both in and out of Congress,
to interfere with our rights in slave properly, in
whitever character such interference is exercis
ed ; and we believe it the imperative duty of
the South to repel such interference at all haz
ardt.
4 That we cannot too strongly condemn the
unhallowed efforts of those Southern men who
give uid and comfort to our oppressors, by qui-t
--ly sibmittilig to flagrant injustice, and openly
denuincing those who dare to vindicate their
rights as equals in the confederacy.
5. That in the present contest, we know and
recognize no issue but quiet and Disgraceful sub
mission, or manly and patriotic resistence to
free-oil encroachments That truly the cry of
the Union, eminating whence it does, is the
masked bajterry from behined which the Con.
stitu.ion and the rights of the South are to be
assailed.
6. That in the formation of our Government,
we took the Union and the Constitution togeth
er, aad we regard a strict observance of the lat
ter, a necessary requisite to the preservation of
the former.
7. That we cherish for the Constitution of the
Uni ed States and the Federal Union, as formed
and administered by our fore-fathers, a degree
ot respect and attachment, second to none, and
that we are ready to delend and maintain the
same, against both foreign and domestic aggres
sions, as long as our rights as equals in the Con
federacy are respected and maintained.
8. That our destiny is with Georgia and the
South, and whatever fate awaits us, we will
never be found co-operating with the enemies
of our institutions, or occupying questionable
grounds against the land ot our homes and of
our families : but will stand true and maintain
her rights at all hazards
9. Tliat we will support no candidate to said
Convention, who is uu w illing to subscribe to the
principles contained in the foregoing Preamble
and Resoiutions.
Col. Hugh L Dennard then moved the ap.
pointment of a Committee of 28, being two from
each District, to nominate four suitable candi
dates as delegates to the proposed Convention.
The following gentlemen were thoreupon ap
pointed by the chair :
Hugh L. Dennard, John W. Woolfolk, F. W
Johnson, Edward L. Felder, Win. I*. Gilbert,
Carlton Wellborn, Edward A. Harvey, Jas. E.
Duncan, Watkins Laidler, Seaborn Bateman,
Win. L. Hunt, Wm. F. Clark, James Springs,

Byrd. Wm. Allen,Wm Bryan, James A. Pringle,
Wni. A. Thorp, Green Hill, Zach. Lamar, John
Harris, Amos O'Pry and Robert W. Mclnvaile,
Esqrs.
Col. Geo. R. Hunter being then called for, ad
dressed the meeting in a most powerful and con
vincing argument, in which he tore away the
net-work of fallacy and falsehood which our op
ponents have vainly attempted to throw around
the present issues before the people. In the
brief space of the time allotted to him, iie sus
tained fully his well earned reputation as an Or
ator and Statesman and demolished the platform
of Southern Subtnissionists, who are endeavor,
i rig under the Wolf cry of Disunion, to apoligize
for tire outrages of a corrupt majority in Con.
gress, and elicited the loudest plaudits from the
vast assemblage.
The Committee on Candidates, through their
Chairman, Col. Dennard, reported the names of
the following gentlemen, which report was
unanimously received :
Dr. EDWARD J. McGF.HEE,
FRANCIS W. JOBSON,
SOLOMON FUDGE,
MORRIS POLLOCK, Esqrs.
On motion, Edward A. Harvey, Jno.M. Giles
and Shepherd Rogers, Esqrs., were appointed a
Committee to notify the above gentlemen and
to request their acceptance.
On motion of Jno. M. Giles, Esq., it was re
solved, that these proceedings be published in
Southern Rights papers of Macon, and that the
Southarn Press at Washington City, and all
others friendly to the cause,be requested to copy
til em.
After a vote of thanks to the officers, the
moeling adjourned to meet on Friday, the Ist of
November.
