Below is the OCR text representation for this newspapers page.

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, H. D. Hoskins, Mad ison Marshal, Drury W. Tkiylor,Solomon Fudge, Wm. F. Posteli, Nathan 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. C. B. STRONG, ) „ .. CHAS. WEST, $ Frestdents. Wm. D. Griffin, ) „ . „ ’ > Secretaries.
