«L-A Informs the Public that he is prepared
fc" a for the reception of persons suffering
Jl = l -i.vvith chronic diseases, at his Hater Cure
nr Electro Hydropathic Establishment , near
Marietta, Cobb county, Ga His Baths are sit
uated near the principal Buildings. The scene
in the immediate vicinity is nil turesque, being
near Kennesaw Mountain. The scenery, pure
water, the great elevation above the level of the
ocean, (being 460 feet above even the Tennessee
line on the Western and Atlantic Railroad,) the
convenience of access by Railroad, the refined
and intellectual society, and pure atmosphere,
' ave all most admirably! conspired 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 this country have attained a knowledge
of their great value ir. removing disease. He
Hatters himself that he is able with pure Water
and Electricity, to remove any cliaracteror 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 day, for a Patient at his
Establishment, will be for Board, use ofEleetric

NUMBER 49.
GEORGE YV. TOYVNS,
Goveroor of said State.
To the Electois thereof—Greeting :
Having been officially informed, that the Con
gress of the United States has admitted California
into the Union nf the States of this Confederacy,
upon equal terms with the original States, a duty
devolves upon me in the performance of which,
1 shall tregpuss upon the public but briefly.
An unfeigned deference for public opinion,
and the profound regard I entertain for the wis
dom, firmness, and patriotism of my fellow citi
zens of Georgia, will not justify me, in a paper !
of this character, in repeating my known and 1
unchanged opinion as to the duty of the South I
in repelling Free-soi! encroachment, and arrest- I
ing, by nil proper means, usurpation by Congress. ]
Whatever isrompatible with the honor and
obligations of the People of this Stale to the |
country, its laws, and its institutions, I doubt'
not, will receive their warm support.
In an hour of danger—when your inslitotibiis
are 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 tending to the consummation of one object,
the abolition of slavery—when your equal right
lo occupy and enjoy the common territory of all,
has been denied you, in the solemn form oflsiv,
i under pretences the most shallow, it welt be
comes you to assemble, to deliberate, and coun
sel together for your mutual preservation and
safety.
YVhatcvcr course the extraordinary events by
which we are encompassed, will demand or jus
tify, in Us t he 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, perfect harmony and concord of feeling
are restored, and confidence and concart 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
slitveholding States, but oftlie Government—of
the imminent peril to which the institution of
slavery is reduced by the act of Congress admit
ting the Slate of Cali fur mu into the Union, with
a Constitution containing the principle of the
YY’ilmot Proviso, in defiance of our warning and
earnest remonstrance—in view oftlie deplorable
fuct that some diversity of opinion exists in some
of the 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, of 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
selves, from exasperated feelings of wrong on
the other, to be rashly urged to extreme measures
which have not received the full sanction of your
judgment Then 1 shall not despair of seeing
the w hole State, ns one man, proposing noi|iin»
beyond wliat the emergency may demand, or
failing to perform whatever patriotism, honor
am) right, may require nt your hands.
Thu General Assembly of this State, by an
act approved Blh February, 1850, having requir
ed me, upon the happening of certain events, one
of which is the admission of California as a Stale
into the Union, to issue a proclamation, ordering
tin election to he held i.i each mid every county
for Delegates to a (.’onvontion of the People nf
this .'State, to take into consideration such meas
ures as comport with the extraordinary posture
of our relations to our co-States, and to decide
upon what slops are necessary nnd proper to be
tuksn compatible with qur honor and constitu
tional obligations, as well as more effectually to
secure our light of property in slaves, and to" nr
rest all aggressions, by one section of the Union,
upon the free enjoyment of the constitutional
rights of the other, and lastly to preserve invio
late the equality of the Slates of llie Union, as
guarantied under the Constitution : Therefore,
