We fear that this subject, j though temporary expedients nuiy-nii- swer the immediate emergency, is yet i to prove n hone of sectional contention. Alabama has disposed of it by altering ! to her white basis system, tluit has so long prevailed in that State, it is hnrdiv j probable that tills will be satisfaetmy to . the radicals of the North, wlm will agi tate for the right to control State action in this matter, under the pretence that | tlio Constitution of tlio l.’nited States! author)lies them to insi.-l <>n a “repuhli- I can" form ot government for < ach Slate. . South Carolina lias adjusted the difficulty j by a system that blends taxation with numbers, but still recognizes only tba white element of tlio population. In Georgia, we have not had for many years (if we ever bad) a representative system based upon population to uny considerable extent. In the formation of tho .Senatorial districts, numbers are altogether ignored, and counties only mo recognized—each district consisting of three contiguous counties without re gard to territorial extent or population. In apportioning Hepresentntivcs, the recognition of popular numbers is scarce !y more appreciable. In over one hun dred of the counties no regard whatever is paid to population -they having olio Representative each, whether they have leas tlmn one hundred polls (as is the ease with Camden, Colquitt and Mein- 1,,sb) or over four hundred, us Ktniinuel j and others have. The remaining thirty- i seven counties (about on,-fourth of the j whole number) have onch two llojiru- j sentotives and no more, thougl them have over a thousand polls and others less than five hundred. ( I hose figures are derived from tho latest re turns made to the Comptroller’s office, and are all less tlmn the ordinary returns because of the e.vistenoo of wav when they were made.) It is clear that our system of repre sentation is u most unequal itml unrea souohle one. And yet the changing of it just at this time is a move that must ho attended with more tliun ordinary difficulties. We do not, in view of all its surroundings, urge any immediate depasture from a system that has so long prevailed, lint we suggest that i.’ tho Convention does determine to set it aside and adopt a ratio recognizing population ns n basis of represent nlioli, it could hardly do better than to adopt the Fede ral representative basis. This cannot he objected to ns nnti-repuldiean, for it has the sanction of ami is prescribed for the govern men f that is made the guarantor of republican institutions.— Nor enn it allbrd any just provocation for an attempt by one .State to interfere with the domestic concerns of another, for this recognition of tho black popula tion is Hie extent to which u majority of tlio Northern States go in determining sulfrago and representation. Wo think it worthy of serious consideration whether the Fedetal basis is not. under all tho circumstances, the most politic one tlmt could now be adopted. nouncod for not advocating the rxlfunion of cittern’* or freemen’* peculiar right* to the negro, and tlmt hy “men of tho South”—« fact known not only to us, hut to others.

It is tho only country in tho world which, while it is a tind-clas* naval power (for its mercantile tonnage i« equal t'> our own), can keep 700,000 men in the field. Has your Emperor thought of all this in connection with his Mexican expedition? I confers I saw with amaze- incut, ns well ns rogret & tho course which ho took in sending an army to intorfero in tho internal uHairs of that wretched coun try. It reminded run, in its impolicy, of the expedition of tho First Napoleon from Bayonne into Spain, No human being can restore Mexico to order, cr confer on it the blessings of civilized progress. It requires tlio band of God llimself to ef fect such a change in that degraded popu lation of half-casto*. But does the Em peror know how deeply the public senti ment ol tho United Stales is outraged and humiliated by this attempt of a foreign power to set up an ompiro at their door without consultation with thorn? How would you Frenchmon like to see the Yankees sending an army to establish a republic in Belgium without consulting you? Seoing the American papers regu larly, 1 gather from them that the resent ment against you for the Mexican inter vention is ready to burst forth the moment the rebellion is in suio way of defeat. The Americans will havo some sorioui controversies with England, but thoy are of a nuluro to keep and employ the ing nuily of diplomatists. But I look for n peremptory demand from Washington for explanations from tlio Tuillerics,which will lead to war or humiliation. 1 sin cerely wish tho Emporor would withdra every Fronch soldier immediately.

Fiko retaliated by twico discharg ing his revolver at his opponent, the first shot slightly wounding Maginis in the head and the second severely in the side. Both parties weio arrested, and tho meet ing was summarily dissolved.

Tho Procla- ionH of the President of tho United States ing given freedom to every slave, und the Ii • 1 (iimi'-ty and Ibc conditions of i»nrdon forbid anv attempt ut it- revival in any form or oiniition. Tho great mu.-* of the Agricultural l’opula- ion ot tho Slate lias boon released trom their bligatiou to uuHivuto the soil, except hy their wn volition, and it must be apparent to tlio . udiriouH obsoner, however much to bo regret- teih that the voluntary labor ot tho newly freed population will not lor tho prcaout, at loast, supply tho deficiency of labor. Tho withdrawal of nearly throe hundred thousand able bodied persons to a greater, or lees extent from their usual vocations has created a void which must be filled or tho lauds oi tlio State will remain untitled, her great re sources undeveloped und her future prmpvrity sacrificed. Tlio remedy, and tlio only remedy for this condition of attaint consists in tho immigration ut a hardy and industrious white population, to supply the plans of those who cannot bo com pelled to work and whose dispositions do not incline them to greater lubor than is actually necessary to suppoit life. To sue a immigrant'*, no Stat*> offers gro iter inducement* than the Mute of (Jcurgiu. Ex tending from the Atlantic Ocean to the Blue Ridge, it embraces every varioty of soil and climate. Tho Savannahs of tho coast, tho roll ing country ot the interior, nnd the mountain ol tlu* northern part of tho State afford oppor tunities fm* tho cultivation of almost every pro duct ( t tropical or tomperute latitudes. The grano i*< grown with groat success in many parts ot tho Slate and its cultivation has only boon limited by tho want of persons skilled in tho knowlougc ot tlio vine and of the mode of preparing its yield. Tho Mato is also rich in gi ld and other minerals, and nothing but ener gy und the application «»t proper machinery i* wanting to the (lcvcloj>mont of these hidden treasures. Ihi* rid ing of rheop of tho finest breeds lias been carried on with success, and the vast rall ies of uncultivated land aff »rd excellent pas- ures for cattle and all kinds of stock—rice, iotton tobacco, corn, wliuut. ryo, oats, sugar ano. the grapu and all species ot fruits find their appropriate foil and climate within our oxtonded limits. The numerous rivers and smaller streams tak ing their■ riso in the mountains and running through the .State into tlio Atlantic and tho (lull in their i radual descent furnish water power unlailinp; in any season and capable of putting into operation any kind of machinery. the state contains upwards of thirty millions of acres, of which uot more than ono third has boon eultivuttd und the virgin torcsl of the w ild lands afford an incxhaustiblo supply of lurnbi r which formed a heavy item the exports of Georgia prior to our lato dif ficulties. These lands, which may be bought at oomparatlvoly low ra*es. will give to tho now tier a homestead on which he may erect his »t tree ami settle for life an inhabitant nnd in time a citizen of the republic. prinetpo tho intention next session ol tllv uuiieitmiBi mu vni'im. ui said Company to bo five hundred thousand dol lars, in twenty thousand shares of twenty-five dollars each: said Company to he orgnnixod by tho choice of a Prvsidont. and Directors when all tho sharort shall havo boon subscribed. The object of the Company is to induce and utlord aid to the immigration into the State of Go rgiu of honest, sober nml reliable persons with thoir families, to bocotnc purchasers of and settlors on lands n *t now in use, or bo laborers on farms or plantations on which tho freedmon refuse to work, or to (ollow their trndos, or be- coino house servants. Tho advantages to bo derived at this present juncture by tho influx ol such a class ot popu lation, aro manitest. To tho large landholder it offers the prospect ofsclling his land or farm ing it out ou advantageous terms. To tho Flan- tor and Farmer it will supply that labor, in tho absence of which, the ownership ot the soil is a burthen, and to all persons in those classes ot lifo whose business requires or whoso position permits tbo use of tbo labor of others, it afford* tbo opportunity o( obtainfog such labor at a reasonable rate, and of a reliable character. So also to tho Stato will great benofit accrue: many of tho immigrants may bring wealth with thorn, all will bring skill or induntry. which is the source of wealth, and this infusion of now lifo will, we trust, iu progress of time, restore Georgia to her original stato of prosperity. Tho Company wo believe, will be, not only soif'fustaiDinjr, but a sourco of profit to the stockholders.

Institution to take care of the Lnus and profits cl the emigrants, which it n proposed to connect with the Company, will, wo expect, enable the Company to dorlnro such dividend* as will make it remunerative to those who subscribe simply as an investment. But independently of pecuniary consideration, as citizens i»t the Mate of Georgia who havo an intoro.-t iu its future welfare, we ask your assis tance in tins matter, in our opinion of vital im portance. \\ o may not leave tho land of our birth, let us make it unce more a land of prom ise.
