If ibis were all, we.niighi only smile at their empty, hypocritical clatter, and hold in mockery ibeir bmd but impotent charges. But it has not stopped there. They claim to lie the rea l bona fide Vtnas men—the special guardians of that Mess ed and righteous bond of confederacy which unites the haughty and unpriuct- pled Nnrtli willi the *• poor unfortunate South.” They call their meetings as having lor their object the preservation of the Union, and adopt aa the name ol their tickets, the Union ticket. They beseech Ibeir readers by all the glories of the post and all the hopes (?) of the future, to rally to the support o* the stars nnd stripes, endangered and plac ed in jermardy.'as they suppose, by the efforts in the Southern Rights men.— They preach submission in low, whin- ing tones, and look upon resistance ui unjtisl and unconstitutional measures as the height of lolly aud madness. While they cannot but see that the open object of the abolitionists and free toilers is to destroy slavery in the States as Well ns prevent .its spread in common Territo ries, they cry peace, peace—don’t,for the Union"a suite, make any resistance— you will only incur the greater indigna tion of these our brethren of the North, and then your destruction will assured ly be sudden, overwhelming and com plete l For the Union's take, don’t en deavor to obtain your rights—don’t nt- tempt to obtain justice—don’t try to se cure your property nnd your possessions from danger and peril—don’t give our friends of the North the least uneasi ness! Mr. Toombs* words were certainly prophetic, «• That cry of Union is the masked battery, behind which the right• of the South ARB 70 SB assailed.” We fully agree with him in tbecaution which be gives to Southern men, to watch the roan who has his mouth so full of it— ** Let the South mark the man who is forlbe Union * at all hazards and to the last extremity," ” Such a man is the true political Judas—the vile wretch, who for a little coveted wealth, would ** throw away a pearl richer than all his tribe.’- .. Bet- th«f one* masked baUery is un masked—uncovered and opened to the view. This hollow cry of the Union will not avail. None are frightened by this clap-trap of the submissionists. «-Tis the eye ofchildhood That fc*n a jviMtai devil.” The eye of manhood quails not at the bug-bear fancy. Neither will the Southern man, who (cels the deep wrongs, which have been inflicted upon bis section, nnd the low depth of degra dation to which he will be sunk, if they are oof, resisted by any and all means, in the power of the people. And this brings us to the REAL IS SUE presented to the people—and that is RESISTANCE or ABOLITION.— Whicbdoyou choose, people ofGeorgia T Resistance to unjust and unconstitution al measures now, or the entire destruc- tion'of your slave property hereafter. One of these two must be chosen.— There is no escape. The North has openly avowed its intention to bring about •• the entire extinction of slavery in the United States.” It is your duty, -.if'yea wish to preserve your institutions and year properly, to resist any and nil measures having this as their end and object. The late Lille passed by Con gress, shutting the South otifcol Califor nia,.virtually passing the baled Wilmot Proviso over New Mexico and Utah, and declaring that slaves shall become . ubeeatbo abb free if taken into the Itotrict of Columbia? are all aiming at 4bt*, object; Tube .must be resisted. .In the contest now going on in the State, t lie re arc. but two great parties— lor resistance, the other for tame ■ond cowardly submission to wrong.— \V© arc Tor ibe first. The people must be for the first, or prc|tarc for the final abolition of slavebt. They have abandoned the primary it tcrcsts of the South, and arc now seek ing to make •'submission a virtue,” by which they can change the political re lations of our State. Let every Geor gian ask himself if he is willing lojoin n an unholy crusade against the repub lican character of our Slate? Will he yield to ibc.chargc of submission which Northern demagogues nnd their South ern coadjutors ate inun'.ingty daring them to consummate? The conserva tive mind may look upon the prospect of our domestic relatious with cool in difference, nnd treat the masked mea sures which ore now attempted to de grade our national reputation ns mere abstractions; but rest assured, these at tempts to delude the unweary, and up root tho social relations of onr State, strikes deep at the root of the domestic security between the master nnd slave. And this is done by the polished in trigues of a party woo continue to teach by the doctrine, that to preserve peace we must continue to submit to the press ure of our wrongs, until the pillurs of our State are found tottering to the ground. Wc say, beware of the false lights which are now being hung out, guised with all the alluring ornaments of love for the Union nnd undyine faith for the integrity of dm State. They arc false lights to decoy the honest husbandman in the vortex of an unhappy issae. ln- tegrity and the characteristic spirit and patriotism of Georgians cannot be sus tained by submission.

Tim Baltimore Patriot says • that it bas often beet* remarked by persons fa miliar with the views ant; purposes of the violent abolitionists of tho North, that they seem, many of them, animat ed rather by hatred towards the owner# of slaves, than by any strong sentiments ol compassion fir the slaves them selves. This was illustrated in the case of Chaplin, preferring to steal the slaves of Southern members of Congress rather than those of citizens of the District, fcVr (lie [Nirpose of creating an excitement which would tend to dissolve tho Union. Indeed, the whole history of abolition ism, proves that it lias no compassion to preserve the Union by submission, id those who mounted the great war- horse of sovereign speeches and ming ling Parliamentary resolves for peace, until they found iheirempires crumbling to the dust. But this attempt is exceeded by the coarse of the •• submissionist” party in this State. They-h«Ve not only mount ed the war-horse to cry God save our State—which politically means—God save our party, but tbeir pens and tbeir swords are drawn alike to hasten ibe transgressors onward march, and enforce obedience to the will that would cloud all our fairest prospects, and sa crifice the safely of our citizens and government. It behooves us then to beware of such party devices, which can only strengthen the National feder al party, and lay prostrate the sover eignty of our Slate.

We a prepared to renew contracts with our former advertising patrons. Having rfoen,- Phoenix like, we intend in future to give our read ers an interesting sheet. We only ask in return a hearty support, if our friends consider us worthy of It. We would here take occasion to remark, for the benefit of Submissionists here and elsewhere, that the discontinuance of this paper a few weeks since was not caused (as has been charged) by the withdrawal of patronage, in consequence of our course upon the Southern question; but on the con trary, our patronage at tbe time of its dfocontinn- non-intercourse : Of relia- ance, was larger than at any time previous, since lion by reprisals and by a system of discriminating taxation. If these or any other similar measures within the consti tution, promise success, and can unite the Convention and the people, they should be adopted. 2, If these remedies, after examina tion, are found impracticable or ineffir cient, let the Convention—tho sover eignty of Georgia, by a solemn ordi nance then assert her rights in the ter ritories, protest against the injustice by which she has been excluded from them, welt as against all the otKer viola tions of the national compact by which her rights and interests have been as sailed. Let the Convention by another solemn ordinance propose to all the slaveholding Slates, that they, unite with her in sending. delegates to a com mon Convention, which Convention shall meet in the course of the ensuing year, consult about their common wrongs, and taktHticu course as in their wisdom shall be most conducive to their future security; the honor, the interests and the rights of the people of the slave- holding States. It is not expected even that this Con vention of all the South, shall adopt as the remedy, the secession of all the Southern Slates, till it has presented its ultimatum to the North and given the States there, a reasonable lime to re trace their steps—an opportunity, of furnishing, if not indemnity for the past, some guaranties for the future security of the South. In the mean time, the States of the Sooth, can be making all the necessary arrangements, for their mutual defence and preparing them selves for any contingency that may await them. Here is a platform upon which it ap pears lo us, every true hearted Georgi an can and ought to stand; It is one which ultimately will ensure redress. It may defer tl, but it is not wise nor politic, that tbe State should act rashly, and precipitately. None deny that the South has been wronged. All who ipeak what they feel, admit that if she tamely submit now, she invites and must expect renewed aggressions, that ifihcreisno immediate danger to her institutions, there is danger m the pros pect. Here then, 4s common ground upon which extremes can meet; a com mon platform where the exclusive uni on man, and the exclusive advocate for Southern rights can stand, and* where both can unite it battling for the rights of the South and the Union as if it came from tfie hands of our fathers.. Let the South occupy this platforms and if dis union come*, abe ts united J>re- pared, when ,h is forced.' upon her, to breast any storm that may ensue. connection with it. Tbit charge Is about as honest tml reasonable, as that the object of the Southern Rights party is to bring about, by the Convention, • dissolution of the Union tSih N•▼ember***The CrtoW Ja The people of Georgia will soon be catted upon maintain her rights tnd honor, by casting their vote* for men, who', in Convention, by their wis dom, will devise means of resistanco to the haugh ty and aggressive Northern majority in Congress. This Convention is not a work of disunion—as the submissionists are wont to impress upon the ignorant and unwary with the specious cry of i"—“ our glorious Union”—but trery, it is a work of protection of the institution ol slavery against the fanaticism and cupidity of the Northern horde, who are trying to crush it. How they have already, and will in future succeed, his tory will present to our astonished vision, if we do not now, by united action, cast off their galling yoke—saying to them, make os restitution for what thou hast already done, and give os guarantee for the future. People of Clark, listen so longer the syreu song of Pubmissionfoto—thst the South has nothing to complain of in the passage of the late bills.

APPOINTMENTS. It is not true as stated by a late meeting in this city, that the Free-Soilers regard tbe origanizationi of the Territorial Governments for New Mexico, and Utah as a triumph of the South. So far from it, they and tbeir presses speak of itas a triumph over the South. They forbear to attach the “hate ful Wilmot Proviso,” solely because- they all bold slavery excluded in these territories by the Mexican laws. The extract quoted by our opponents from the “Albany Evening Journal,” complaining that twenty-five thousand square miles had been giveuV to slavery, is one of the strongest proofs that they view all the new territories safe for them under provisions of the Compromise Bill. That twenty- foe thousand square miles is the fraction ef Hew Mexico left-to Texas by Pearce’s bill, although ber title wi* good up to 42. Had his fraction also been given to New Mexico, it would not have been surrendered to slavery in the opinion of ibis Free- Soil editor.
