creed, in the Bcptist Champion) who does
nit show credentials of having been im

The L&te Convention.
As some of tbe Democratic presses are dis
poned to make merry over the idea of the Op
; jMliuu Laving two Conventions on tbe same
day, one at Miiledgeville and the other at Ma
con, we take pleasure in stating that brother
0.-me's Convention, early on Wednesday mom
.u*, cousisted of about one dozen persons, three
tourthaot whom took the early train, and came
over to Macon to participate in the party Con- j
Teation held here, on that day. Our friend of I
the Recorder” has thus realized the fact that
Lis b>jym s handbills < I last week have answered
but little purpose save to annoy his friends,
tad perhaps prevent the attendance of some ;
D .cates (bat might otherwise hare been pres- I
eat here, on Wednesday. Better luck next 1
lane, perhaps!
Under all the circumstances, of short notice,
change of place of meeting, warmth of the :
weather, Ac., we think our Convention was not
only respectable tor numbers, but had consider
able of the best talent of the State on the
xjT. Their official proceedings are to be found
in another column of this paper, but in ail can
dor, we are compelled to say, that there was
entirely too much old foyyism, and too much
of timid policy prevalent in the Convention.— |
A majonty were decidedly for a nomination,
“it not one of those deemed worthy of the j
honor of a nomination as the standard-bearer |
oi the party, was seif-sacr.tictng enough and I
patriotic enough to risk defeat. Not one, out j
of a d.zen, was willing to have the honor of •
a nomination thrust upon him. Therefore, the
Sneads of a nomination had nothing else to do ;
tc&a to compromise the matter, by deferring j
the nomination till the 10th day of August,
when the Convention will again assemble to
■■nmder the question, under more favorable
auspices.
We have but little hope of a good resu’t i
om this action. Delays are sometimes as
oangerout in politics as in other matters, and we
r - *r that when the day of adjournment arrives,
we shall have a thinner assemblage, and a less
d.-p s.tion than now, on the paitofany of our
/ • ‘ ( fie great men to accept a nomination.—
However, we can meet and talk the matter,
over, then appoint a big Committee of 24 of the
more prudent and Conner rati re members,
(Heaven save the mark!) who will labor for
•everal mortal hours, to fix up a platform that
will suit every shade of opinion of the individ
uals composing the Committee, and then we
eva adjourn to a still “ more convenient sev
m! ” 11 gentlemen think this is the way to
O’ganize a lire party, we say to them, go ahead,
*td we will see what a “Rip Van Winkfe”
isrness you will make of it
As to the Resolutions adopted, we have noth
in special to say. Abstract principles will do
very well, but some decisive action would suit
us better. Besides, we think that the Conve
nt on should have passed the proposition of Mr.
Jonea in reference to a repeal of the laws de
taring the slave trade piracy. This insult to
the South should, at least, have received con
demnation from a Southern body of politician",
whatever views they may have entertained, in
reierence to the expedi ency of re-opening ihe
Foreign slave trade.
But we have not room for further comment,
•t this time, but will wait, as patiently as we
can. the ides of August, to see whether we can
allowed the poor privilege of a freeman, of
voting for somebody for Governor other than
Joseph the Baptist 1
Mail Derangement*.
The following letter will explain itself. It
speaks of an inconvenience which ought to
U obviated. And we bear of msnv such
oses that point to the Macon post office as
the place where derangement often occur.-.
Complaints are also frequent that mail mat
ter is not dispatched as promptly as it ought
to be. Letters lor up country, thrown in
late in the evening, are not always forward
*l by the train of next forenoon, &c. This

ness lor the number of Clerks employed, and

complained of, in the following, but publish

Brown House, Macon, July sth, 1859.
The Brown house in Macon in front of
the Passenger Depot where I have stopped
during my attendance upon the Supreme
Court, is emphatically appropriately so called.
Brown made the money tiiat built it. Brown
LSd it built. Brown, the old Brown and the
young Browns officer and man it. The
concern is exclusively under the control of
the Browns, who spare no pains to have
every thing done up brown. The brownest
Brown of all the Browns—the old Brown
is now absent, and his son William, a little
goslin of a Brown not under eighteen nor
over twenty-one is Superintendent pro tern.,
and he carries on the vast establishment with
the skill and success of a veteran Hotel
keeper. Some young men 1 wot of who
are unfortunately able to live as the hogs
live, without a thought or care whence or
how the living comes, would do well to imi
tate his example. It would, even if it did
them no other good, act as a scare crow
upon the delirum tremens —a girl of sense
would not hesitate one moment in a choice
between such a boy and one of these vaga
bondising, booted, broad clothed, gold head
ed caned bucks of leisure.
Quite an amount of business is being dis
patched, the Supreme Court Judge Stephens
the appointee of Governor Brown, is be
ginning to feel easy in the seat lately occu
p:ed by Judge McDonald. Though a juve
nile looking Supreme Judge, his air and de
portment on the Bench without a departure
from the strictest propriety, seem to say that
he feels equal to the responsibilities of his
post. My opinion is, that while a much
more fit appointment might have been made,
that u his ambition prompts him to seek
the honors of eminence as a Judge, if he
has sought the place with a view to keep
ing it—and not merely to tarry there until
a political opening presents itself, the Legis
lature would do weli to continue him. He
is young, and competent to make au able
judge of himself. J edge BenniDg is looking
very well, and wears the ermine with grace
a: and dignity. Judge Lumpkin the Grst Senior
cf the Bench is still in the harness. It is
said to note the ravages that time has
made upon him, though he bears up to h s
onerous duties with a zeal and energy that
would do honor to ambitious thirty in the
enjoyment of the best health. He was born
to shine a jurist, and it is honor to Georgia
that the first Senior Judge of her Supreme
Court approved himself the peer of Kent,
Story and Marshall. Long yet may his office
be filled by so much ability, dignity and in
dustry. Traveler.

i
EVENING SESSION.
The Convention met at 8 P. M., pursuant
|to adjournment. The Committee appointed
to report business for the action of Conven-
I tion, submitted through their Chairman,
the following Preamble and Resolutions,
which were passed unanimously :
PREAMBLE.
The Opposition Party of Georgia plants it
self upon tbe principles of State Rights ; equal
privileges in tbe Union, and equal distribution
of its burthens, and the exerc se by Congress
only of such powers as are specifically delega
ted in the Constitution, and those clearly in
ferrable from, and inc dent to, the granted pow
ers, and Decessary to carry out such granted
powers.
1. Resolved , That the T*nion, as establish
ed by the Federal Constitution, if ihe latter be
faithfully carried out, is the surest eu<rauty of
the rights nd inteiests of all sections of the
oouotry.-and should be preserved.
2. Resolved , Tout s the institution of
S avery eX st- and in the States of the conled
eracy prior t” the adoption of the Constitu
tion of tie United Stat-s, ai.d the right to
noid >lvi* a- properly wa conceded by the
framers of tin Cos smut on and fully recog
niz and tlieiem, tiler* fore, Slavety exis'* irule
p. miently of the Coo-mu'ion ; and, us-ave
ry is reeo-in'Zed <nd s motioned by the Con
stitution, and C-mgrews, wlrch derives all
it? p weis from tha’ instrument, cannot, lcg
i-l.iie o.i the eubj ot ot slavery, except for it*
protection where it 1-galiv exist-*; mat the
Territories are the common property of ail
the Sia'.es, and ’herefore. ihe people have
the right to enter upon and occupy any
Territory with their slaves, as well as other
property, and are protected by the Consti
tution and Flag of the country ; that Con
gress has no right to legislate slavery into,
nor exclude it from a Territory, and that we
hold that the doctrine of “non-intervention’
with the institution of slavery in the States,
Territories, or the District of Columbia, doea
not, nor was it intended to conflict with the
assertion of the citizens of the several States
who may choose to settle in the several
Territories.
We believe also that the further agitation
of the subject of slavery will tend to no
practical good to any portion of the coun
try, and should therefore c*-ase, regarding
the principle as settled, both by legislative
enactment and judicial interpretation, that
the people of the Territories, when they come
to form a State Constitut : on, and at no other
time, (by unfriendly legislation or otherwise)
shall decide the question for themselves.
We furthermore repudiate the doctrine of
“squatter sovereignty” in all its forrjis as an
invidious and certain mode of excluding the
South from the common territory of the
Union, and stand ready to oppose sternly
and uncompromisingly all who advocate
that doctrine.
3. Resolved, That the reckless extrava
gance of the preceding and present Admin
istration of the Federal Government, and
especially the unblushing corruption which
has marked the latter, by which the public
expenditures have been increased from fifty
to near one hundred millions of dollars per
annum, is a deep wrong that should be re
buked and must be corrected. We hold
Congress equally responsible with the Ad
ministration for this extravagance.
4. Resolved, That the recommendation of
the President that Congress should confer
upon him the war-rnaking power, and sub
ject the army and navy to his control,
coupled with the demand for enormous ap
propriations of the public money to carry
out his views, call for and deserve the most,
unequivocal ar.(l unqualified condemnation
of the whole country.
5. Resolved. The present representation in
the State Legislature we regard as cumbrous,
an unnecessary tax upon the people and in
imical to wise and prudent legislation. We
advocate a decided reduction and at theeaili
est day practicable.
John A. Jones, of Polk, offered the fol
lowing proposition:
We believe there is in the Constitution no
grant to Congress, of power to pass laws on
the subject of the African Slave Trade, and
without saying anything pro or con, as to
the propriety of reviving the trade, we de
mand the repeal of all laws on the subject,
and that it be left to the States where the
Constitution left it.
James Johnson, of Muscogee, offered tbe
following as a substitute for Mr. Jones’ res
olution .
Resolved , That it is inexpedient, unwise
and contrary to the settled policy of the
United States, to repeal the laws prohibiting
the African Slave Trade.
After some discussion by the mover* ol
these on motion of Mr. Blanford
of Marion, both resolutions were laid on the
table.
W. W. Corbitt, of Taylor, offered a reso
lution that this Convention do now proceed
to the nomination of a candidate for Gov-
exnor.
Gol. Funibro desired the mover to with
drawer his resolution, to give him a chance
to offer a resolution to postpone the nomin
ation of a candidate for Governor to a
future day.
Mr. Corbitt declined to withdraw.
The following resolution was then offered
hy Mr. Steed, of Chatham, as a substitute
for the motion of Mr. Corbitt.
Resolved, That we recommend a Mass Con
vention of our friends be held in Atlanta, on
the 2nd Wednesday in August, and that this
Convention will adjourn to said place and time,
and the Counties not now represented are re
quested to send Delegates. And that we post
pone the nomination ot a candidate for Gover
nor until that time. Adopted.
On motion of C. Peeples, a vote of thanks
was tendered to the officers of the Convention,
for the faithful discharge of their duties.
The following Executive Committee was
appointed :
Ist. District—J. R. Sneed.
2nd. “ Lott Warren.
3rd. “ R- P. Trlppe.
4th. “ Renj. 11. Hill.
6tli. “ Warren Aiken.
Gth. “ Richard I). Wynn.
7th. “ John J. Floyd.

On motion, the Convention then stood ad
