J the people peaceably to assemble and peti
tion the government for a redress of grievan
ces. This is plain—it is just—it is rcasonn-
ble—it * 3 in strict accordance with the doc
trine that the nets of the government aro in
tended for the benefit of the people, and that
the lat'er possess tho right to instruct their
representatives in what manner they may bp
benefited by legislation; and whether their
true interests will be advanced or injured bv
contemplated measures—lot this privilege,
af such inestimable value to the poop!o°of'
America, has been in effect denied to them, by
the delegation from Georgia ! ! In tho intem
perate pursuit of one unlawful project,they have
been compelled virtually to assert, that to me
morialize Congress, i$ in the language of Mr.
Lumpkin, “ an impertinent intermeddling with
other people’s business !!” and thus in fact to
resist a lugal act of the sovereign power.
If Mr. Lumpkin as here slated is among those who
deny to Ike " people the right of memorializing Con-
gross;” is he more entitled >o Iheir confidence and sup
port than Mr. Gilmer, both of whom, according to the
reasoning of some editors, have joined the “ aristocra
cy,” in their opposition to the rights of the. same "dear
people.”
“ Let us pause for n moment, and examine n
few of their remarks : l will first dispose of
Mr. Lumpkin's “ mildest terms,” to wit: he
“‘considered it” (the memorial) " an imperti
nent intermeddling with other people’s busi
ness”—This remark has precisely the sume
tidiculous effect ns if, upon the arraignment of
a robber nf the liar of justice, after the reading
of tho indictment by the clerk, tho culprit
should by way of answer or plea, assort that
he considered the whole proceeding against
him as “ impertinent intermeddling with other
people’s business !!!! for no one can doubt
that he would greatly prefer to escape the pun
ishment likely to be inflicted by this “ imper
tinent intermeddling” of the olfivers of justice
—If Mr. Lumpkin had been disposed to ad
mil “ the right of the people nt all times pea
ceably to assemble and petition Congress lor
n redress of grievances,” ho eould not have
permitted such indecorous and inconsistent
language to escape him.”
“ Let us hear no more cant about the ene
mies of Georgia—those are her real enemies
who seek to brand her fair famo witli ignomi
nious seproach. Those are her enemies who
unceasingly promulgate tirndcs to stimulate
tho avaricious part of her population to rapine
and plunder—who would, to sustain a despc
rale partizan chief, convert a highminded
though misguided portion nf her citizens, into
bandits, and the “ chartered limits" of Georgia
into a den of unprincipled robbers.

It has been intimated to us by a friend of Mr. Gums,
of Jackson county, that in a review published in this
paper of February 1st, of the vote given by the dark
and Troup parties, upon the question of Convention
and Reduction, wc had conveyed to the public an im
pression tending to the injury of Mr. Burns, not war
ranted Hy his uniform devotion to the subject of reduc
tion. It was stated to us that Mr Burns was the ori
ginal mover of the bill referring the question of reduc
tion to the people—that that reference, and tho will of
tho people as subsequently expressed hy their vote,
fmposed upon the members of the legislature and upon
Mr. Burns individually, an obligation to effect and car
ry into operation the proposed change in our system
of representation—that the representatives of those
counties, the people of which had declared themselves
friendly to reduction, could not in good faith answer to
their constituents, without first nitempling to obey
their instructions. It was further staled, that as tho
question of convention was first acted on, though not
the first proposed or the first in order, Mr. Bnrnscon-
•idered himself bound injustice to his constituents, to
oppose every plan of a reduction nt the members by
convention, until satisfied that the same could not be
cfleeted hy the legislature.
These views so far as Mr. Burns is individually con
cerned, wc aro certainly disposed to consider satis
factory; it was not less theduty of Mr. Burns, than of
the other members of the house, to evince at least a
disposition to comply with the demands of the people,
although this demand involved an impossibility. This
by others is assigned ns a reason for their opposition to
a convention, yet no clfort was modo after the failure
ofthc bill fur reduction, to reconsider the bill authoris
ing the call of a convention. We confess that in our
view, just cause of complaint exists against those who
deny to the people the right of expressing their opinion
for or against convention, after being convinced that
tho proposed reduction is etherwiso impracticable.
Repeated efforts have been made by tho legislature to
reduce its own members—repealed fuilurcs have been
the consequence. The name of Mr. Burns is found re
corded in opposition to a convention both in 1629, and
1830, in conjunction with those of others of the same
party, through whose opposition this measure has for
two years past been defeated. If in this statement,
which we injustice to Mr. Burns have been requested
to make, any error of facts should exist, our columns
arc open for any correction which tnny be deemed ne
cessary.

in 1825, and that his vote is recorded on ques-
lions of great interest to the State, because in
volving essential rights. And on what side
was the vote of Mr. Polhill to lie found. Let
tho render jmdgc for himself; we shall merely
give a transcript from the journals, with a few
short notes.
Wednesday, December 21, 1925.—The re
port of the joint committeo on tho state of the
republic, was taken up by paragraphs. The
following paragraph in said report being read :
Your committee then will not withhold the
recommendation that in furtherance of the in-
tercsis of the Indians themselves, and in con
formity with tbo rights of Georgia, that our
der ision of the legislature, (hat the tribes ofln-
dians, located within the limits of Georgia, are
dependants, and aro not free and independent
of the government of the State.]
The following resolution being read :
Resolved, That full reliance is and ought
to be placed in llic treaty lately concluded be
tween (lie United States for the use of Geor
gia and the Creek nation oflndinns at the Ind-
un Springs—thut the title of the territory oh-
Inincd by snid Ireoty within tho limits ofGeor-
gia is considered as an absolulo vested inter
est, and that nothing short of the whole terri
tory thus acquired will ho snlisfaetorv, and
that the right of entry immediately upon tho
expiration of the time limited in the treaty, he
insisted on and accordingly carried into effect.
[JVo/e. This resolution involved the validi
ty of tho old treaty, and tho authority which
the government of Georgia possessed to sur
vey the land hy that treat)'. IIow did Mr.
Polhill vote?]
On motion to agree, the yeas wero 67, navs
23—Mr. Polhill among the nays.
Mr. Turner then offered the following as an
addition to said resolution :
And he it further Resolved, That tiie right
of entry aforesaid be enrried into effect hy nil
proper means within tho control of the State.
On motion to ngroo, the yeas wero 63,
nays 22—Mr. Polhill among the nays.
On Hie final passage of tho report and reso
lutions, the yeas were 67, nays 22—Mr. Pol
hill nmong the nays.
[Mr. Polhill carried his opposition to this
report and resolutions so fur, that on the mo
tion of Mr. Turner, that the Clerk ho directed
to inform the Semite forth with of their concur
rence in said report, he voted against it: Yeas
55, Nays 25.
The National Intelligencer in noticing the proceed,
iocs of the Free Trade meeting held in this place on the
4th alt. thus expresses itself upon a subject involving
tho vital interests of Ihc south.
Wo wish to direct the attention of our
readers to the proceedings nf a meeting, con
sisting of the lending citizens r.f the State of
Georgia, for appointing Delegates to the meet
ing about to be held at Philadelphia, for the
adoption nf measures for procuring a modifi
cation of the tnriff of impost duties. It will be
seen with pleasure, that the Delegates ap
pointed at that meeting, are instructed to ah-
slain from the consideration of any measures
going to impair the authority nf the General
Government. The meeting questions the
constitutionality of the tnriffluws, but repudi
ates every suggestion to a resistance (or nul
lification) of them. This is tho true ground
for those who entertain the opinions of the
tariff which aro avowed by those who compo
sed thut meeting.”
The Macon Advertiser of the 30lli ult. gives the fol
lowing information. It will be seen by the proceedingi
on that occasion, who are Iho friends, and who tho one.
mica of tho Tariff.—Who the advocates of lliis 11 consli
tutional" yet “ unjust and oppressive” system of legis
lation. It isvnin for our political enemies to contend
for an opposition to Iho principles of this system, while
every effort to effect its modification or repeal is op
posed.
“ Be it then further Resolved. That it is im
portant that the Stnlo of Georgia should be
represented in said Convention, and that we
highly approve of the Delegates nominated nt
the late meetings in Athens and Snvannnh.
Tlicso resolutions gnvo rise to n very spirit
ed affair of outposts, in which Henry G. and
John Lamar, Thomas Campbell, Christopher
B. Strong, and W. Poe, displayed much abili
ty in the advocacy of the measure. These
gentlemen were opposed in a very ingenious
manner, hy C. B. Cole, J. B. W ick, and J. G.
Polhill, (of Milledgeville.) There wasa great
deal nf shnrp shooting on both sides. Thu
debnte was protracted until about candle
light, when the previous question was called
for, which resulted ill an overwhelming ma
jority for tho Resolutions. There wero about
150 persons present—and when tho final vote
was taken hut four indistinct muttering* of
JYay—JYoi/—.Yai/—JWijf—caught our ear.—
We may tako occasion to notice this subject
hereafter, and injustice to gontlemen give their
reasons for opposition, accompanied by a lit
tle commentary.”
From tho Georgia Journal.
Mr. Lumpkin.—We have been called on
from several quarters, for an account of Mr.
Lumpkin’s course in tho Legislature of Geor
gia, in the year 1806, when nn act w as passed
to dispose of certuin lands obtained from the
Creek Indians. To satisfy these enquiries, we
have collected the following facts front the
Journal of the House.
Three facts are established by these ex
tracts.
1st. That J\Ir. Lumpkin was in Jator of
targe reserves, nen to every twentieth tract be
sides the Fractions.
2d. That he teas in favor of tf high price on
grants.
3d. That lie was in favor of a high annual
cd. .Ynlhing is reserved by it h u l the fraction
al tots under 100 acres■ -2nd there is no pro
bability that the subject of re<cn'ei of mines will
be touched again in the Legislature. That
matter is now settled. Why then agitate it
ngnin, unless it ho to produce an excitement
on a subject already settled.
At a session of the Legislature in tho year
1806, Mr. Wilson Lumpkin took his sent, us
a member of the House of Representatives
from Oglethorpe, on the 16th of June.
Oil the 17th, tho House wont into commit
tee of the whole on the hill to dispose of iinj
distribute the late cession of lands obtained
from the Creek Indians hy Henry Dearborn.
Secretary of War. being specially authorized
therefore, by the President of the U. States,
in a treaty concluded ut the City of Washing
ton on tho 4th Novombor, 1805.
Mr. Whitaker reported tho bill to the Honso
from tho committee of the whole, with amend
ments, which roport was taken up hy para,
graphs.
Mr. Crawford moved to amend the report
by inserting alter tho word “ boundary,” in
the 4th section, “ together with one twentieth
tract in eacli district.”
[The 4lh section sola apart tho fractional
parts of surveys for the redemption of the pub
lic debt. Tho motion was therefore to re
serve one twentieth trnet in each district, in
addition to the fractions.]
The motion was rejected, yeas 18, nnys 35
—Mr. Lumpkin voted for it.
Mr. Flournoy then moved to amend by in
serting “ together with one thirtieth tract in
each district.”
Rejected, yeas 18, nays 35. Mr. Lump
kin voted for it.
Mr. Bibli then moved to nmend by insert
ing every fortieth tract in each district.”
Rejected, yens 17, nuys 36. Mr. Lump
kin voted for it.
Mr. Bibb moved to nmend so much of the
report as includes the fortunate drawors in the
State land lottery from a participation of the
lands obtained by inaerting “except those who
have not and stiuli not take out a grant or
grants for the same.”
Rejected, yeas 10, nays 43. Mr. Lump
kin voted for it.
Mr. Wolsber then moved the following pro
viso—“ And provided no person seized or pos
sessed, in his or her own right, of 500 acres
nf land or upwards in fco simple shall bo on-
titled to a draw.”
Rejected, veus 6, nnys 48. Mr. Lumpkin
voted against it.
It was then moved to strike out 61 cents,
and insert 121 as tho compensation for receiv.
ing oneh draw—yens 25, nays 26--.Mr. Lump
kin voted in the negative.
It was then moved to strike out “ six del-
lars per 100 acres,” as the sum to lie pnid by
the fortunate druwer on rereiving his grant
nnd insert tho sum of “ five dollars per 100
acres.” Rejected, yeas 20, nays 32. Mr.
Lumpkin voted against striking out.
Mr. flail then moved the following enacted
clause “ Thut for the purpose nf discharging
the debts due hy this Slate, and tho rumple
(ion of our public buildings ihero shall annual
ly lie leviefKrelloctcd and pnid Into tho trciisu

the 14th day of Nov. 1805, except tho fine
tional parts of surveys nf land reserved for

12 cents per acre ; of the 2d quality 5 cents

son and Baldwin, togethor with those which
may be in the late acquirod Territory shull bo
sufficient to discharge and to answer the pur
poses above expressed.”
The question being put on this paragraph it
was negatived—Yeas 14, naya 39.
Mr. Lumpkin voted lor it.
The bill finally passed on the ISth of June,
yens 46, navs 8.
Mr. Lumpkin voted for its passage.
The War.—The skirmishing is carried oil
with considerable activity on all sides ; tho
Gilmer forces are in high spirits, nnd will pro
bably succeed in the main battlo lo be fought
early next mouth with the Lumpkin cohorts.
Tho Haynes troop is also in the field with co

ever and anon interchanging volleya with tire
Gilmerites. Whnt is tho meaning of this ?
They aro both fighting under tho Crawford
and Troup banners, and why they should lev

in face of u common enemy, is to us surpri
