GEORGE \V. TOWNS,
Goveroor of said State. •
To the Electors thereof— Llrec.ing :
Having been officially informed, that the Con
gress ot i lie l in ted Slates has admit led California
into ihu Union of the Si ales of this Confederacy,
upon equal terms with the original Slates, a duly
devolves upon me iu the peltormanee of w Inch,
1 shall trespass upon the public but briefly.
An unfeigned deference for public opinion,
and the profound regard 1 entertain for the wis
limn, firmness, and patriotism o! my fellow citi
zens of Georgia, will nut justify me, in a paper
of this charaeler, in repealing my known and
unchanged opinion as to ihe duly of the South
in repelling tree-soil encroachment, and arrest
ing, by all proper incans, usurpation bv Congress.
\\ hulever is compatible with ihe honor and
obligations of the People of* lliis Slate to the
country, its laws, and il> institutions, 1 doubt
not, will receive their warm support.
In an hour of danger—when your institutions
are in jeopardy—your feelings wantonly out
raged, yonr social organization derided, your
honor deeply wounded ami ihe federal Consti
tution violated by a eeri* sot aggressive measures
all tending to the consummation of one object,
the abolition of slavery "hen your equal right
to Occupy and enjoy the common territory of all,
has been denied you, in the solemn form oflaw,
under pretences llie mo-t shallow, II well be
comes you to assemble, to deliberate, and coun
sel together for your mutual preservation and
safeiv.
\V hatever course the extraordinary events hy
which we are encompassed, will demand or jus
tify, mu-t be h ft, as it should be, to the patriot
ism, fii nines- 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 ihe one
nor tile 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 ihe South.
11l view, therefore, of the atrocious free soil
sentiment and policy, not merely of the non
alaveholding Slates, but of the Government—of
the imminent peril to w hich the institution of
slavery isredueerJby the act of Cnngiess admit
ting the Suite <>“'California into llie L nion, w ith
a C onstitution containing the principle of the
Wilrnot Proviso, in defiance of our warning and
earnest remonstrance—in view of the deplorable
fact that some diversity of opinion exists iu some
of the Southern States as to the proper mode of
redressing the wrongs, arid averting the dangers
which all must gee and feel, let me, fellow it t
zens, earnestly entreat you to cultivate for each
oth r a deep and abiding sentiment cif fra ernal
regard and confidence. Approach the task,from
which there is no escape, ofdeciding upon y our
duty to Georgia and the country, with a firm
step, but not without calm, deliberale and pa
tient investigation, consulting neither fears nor
dangers on the urie hand, nor permitting your
selves, from exasperated feelings of wrong on
the other, to be rashly urged to extreme measures
which have not received ihe full sanction ofy oor
judgment Then 1 shall not despair of seeing
ihe w hole State, as one man, proposing nothing
beyond wliat the emergency may demand, or
failing to perform whatever patriotism, honor
and right, may require at your.hands.
The General Assembly of this Sta'e, by an
art approved 6th February, 1860, having requir
ed me, upon the happening of certain events, one
of which is the admission ofCalifornia as a Ftate
into the Union, to issue a proclamation, ordering
an election to be held in each and evary county
for Delegates to a Convention of thrj People of
this Ftate, to take into consideration such meas
ures as comport with the extraordinary posture
of our relations to our co-Ftates, and to decide
upon what steps are necessary an and proper to he
taken compatible with our honor and constitu
tional obligations, as well as mo re effectually to
secure our right of properly in » laves, and to ar
rest all aggressions, by one section of the U nion,
upon the free enjoy meht of iRe constitutional
rights of the other, and lastly t.o preserve tnvio
late the equality of the States of ihe Union, as
guarantied under the Cotislit ution : Therefore
he it known, that I, George VV. Towns, Gov
ernor of the State of Georgia., hy the authority
and mandate of the law, do issue this my Pro.
rlamation ordering and directing that the quali
fied Voters for the mos' nvimcrmis branch of the

of holding Elections, as fixed by law, in the sev

JHHJLwitI, chronic diseases, at his flu ter Cure
or Electro Hydropathic Establishment, near
Marietta, Cobb county, Ga His Baths aie sit
uated near ihe principal Buildings 'I he scene
in the immediate vicinity is picturesque, being
near Kennesaw Mountain. The scenery, pure
water, llie great elevation above the level of the
ocean, (hei ng 450 feet above even the Tennessee
line on the Western and Atlantic Railroad,) the
convenience of access by Railroad, the refined
and intellectual society, arid pure atmosphere,
have all most admirably conspire!? to render the
location suitable for an establishment of the
kind.
The Proprietor deems it needless to say any
thing relative to the curative powers of either
Water or Electricity, as the general mass of the
people in i h is country have attained a k row ledge
of their great value ir. removing disease. He
Halters himself that he is able with pure Water
and Electricity , to remove any character or des
cription of disease that could, under other treat
ment or circumstances, possibly be removed—
together with a numerous host, that all other
remedies must necessarily fail to remove.
The expenses per dav, for a Patient at his
Establishment, "ill be for Board, use of Electric
Shocks and Baths, with Water Baths. Medical

Hour Glauses in Pulpits. — An hour
triads is still used on some of the pulpits in
the provinces. Daniel Burgess, one ot
whimsical memory, never preached with
out one, and he frequently sate it out three
times during one set m n. In a discourse
which lie once delivered at the conventicle
in Russel! Street, against drunkenness,
some of his hearers began to yawn at the
end of the second glass—but Daniel wa«
not to be silenced by b yawn; he turnea
his time keeper, and altering the tone of
his voice, desired they would patient awhile
longer, for he had much to say upon the

Affected Deafness.
A stranger dismounted at the door of
the Hotel, and gave his horsß to the
officious waiter. The bar keeper opened
the register to take his name.
“You are right,” said he, “a single
room would be more agreeable,” and he
walked into the supper room, to which tbe
crowd of boarders were passing. The,
bar-keeper rail after li.’Ji, screaming in hisj
ear—
“ What name did you say?”
“Thank you,” said he, “I can find the -
way, don't put yourself to any-trouble.” i
On his return to the bar-room, a waitet |
took up his saddle bags, and told the dea j
s'tanger he would show him his chain ;
her. j
"My friend, who will spend the eveninj |
with me, prefers plain sherry,” said he.-a;
You may send up a bottle and a few cigars j,
"I did not,” said the bar keeper, “ex I?
actiy understand your name.”
"I think a little ice would improve th ■
wine,” was the answer. “Ago while |
think of it, you may put the buttle in 1
wine cooler.” Hisfriend now joined hin-fj
and they walked to his room togelber.-jf
The deaf lodger patronized the honse fl
the extent of another bottle before 1 M
slept. The waiter who brought it u||
ventured once more to enquire his name, ji
‘ Nothing more.” said he, “except a
slice of ham, a pickle, and a lirile hre H
and cheese.” The next morning af. jg
breakfast, when the stranger’s horse w
at the door, he asked for his hill. He w H
told it was six dollars and three quartei:
"You are very kind—l had expected®
pay you; but if this is your custom, in
charge nothing for the first visit, you
not lose by it—all my friends at SponJ®
villa will certainly give you at least
call when they come to this city—g
morning.” i!
"I would thank you to pay yourbilll#
fore you go,” screamed the har-keepetfi
"1 am obliged to you,” saidthe deafjMj
tleman. "I can pul them on,” as he tM j
up h:s saddle-hags aud departed. A|ll
mounted, the bystanders began laugh |jl
moderately at the svvkard embarrasrlffß
which afflicted the bar-keeper who vvtf|;||

quern, who continued bowing, and rei i <j9
trig his assurances that he would certtj H
remember the accommodations, civil |I
and liberality ofthe house, and recomcij | f
it to all his friends who might passlbr ;j i|
