The resolutions adopted unani- j Mrssissim.—The Charleston Mercury say* monaly by the Convention, with the exception of ' One of onr delegates to the Southern Convention, tbe State of Tennessee, Irom which Bay, little belier conld have been'expccted, declare the right of secession to !>e a right vested in the States' and never delegated to the General Govern- Mlent—declare a sincere attachment to the constitu- tional Union, as onr father* intended it, and that this Union of the Stales is a Union of equal and in dependent *»»rrrrif’ntirx—recommend to the people efthe South, not to enter a National Convention for the purpose of nominating candidates for Presi dent and Vice President and that the slaveholding •tales meet in a semi-national Convention or Con gress, with the view and intention of arresting farther aggression upon us, and if this cannot be done, of providing for the future safety and inde pendence of the Union. Here is the Nashville Convention platform— Whit do the tvhmissionisls of Georgia think of it? Those, who have nil ulong l»cen denouncing it •s unhallowed—its advocates and friends as disor- ganizen and ultras—its object, as a dissolution of the Union, and the destruction of the constitution— What think they ol the platform ? We know not how low down in the dost—how much Mien and weakened they are in the spirit which should animate the breasts of southern men, but if this platform cannot rally the submission party to its support, we have no hopes of its ever being brought over from the mild, gentle acquies cence which so greatly, so entirely characterizes it. We have never thonght, however, that the submissionists loved submission per se T here is something in it too humiliating, too simile, too low for freemen. And they have now an opportu nity of leaving its ranks and rallying to those of a party, which counsels to anything but fame submis sion to gross sod unconstitutional wrongs. The resolutions of the Nashville Convention famish the basis of the Snul'iem Rights party.— They should meet with the approbation and enlist the support of every true friend ot the South. No objection can he found to them. Analyi Iutions aa you may—look at them in every point of view, and the wisdom and moderation of their •entioioDt* is. the more apparent and the more striking. They lavor the Union as it should be, a Union of equals under a common bond, and re commend that the Southern States meet in general Convention for tire purpose of securing the equal rights to which they are justly entitled*. We ask, then, of every reader, if this object I ^0iRe successfully carried out, will not the Nash- villo convention eventuate in great bone (it to our' section ? Is there one among us who is not fully prepared logire its action the meed of his entire approbation ? If it will but meet with the assent of the several legislatures ol the Southern States, and a full delegation from each be appointed, we have strong hopes that tho Sonth in this way, would be placed upon high and commanding ground. Wc need only Union among ourselva to obtain justice in the Union. We and others have labored long to bring about this unanimity of feeling among tbe people of Georgia. The result is becoming every day, more and more apparent. The people of the South will ye: act as one man. But more especially will this be the case, should the counsels of the Nashville Convention be heed ed by the Southern people. The plan it proposes to bring about this union among ourselves is by far the most easiest and practicable. Delegates are appointed from every Southern member of the Confederacy under the broad seal of tbe State — they meet—they consult and reason together apoB the pretent condition and future prospects of the 8outh—they weigh calmly and patiently all the various plans for her security—they conclude their labors by the adoption of a piatlorm setting Jorth the just and equal rights of the South aud protesting against tbe infliction of further wrong*. Is it not evident that this couree would unite the people ot the South in her defence snd for her own protection? Is not this recommendation marked by wisdom, justice and tbe greatest moder ation ? Does it not commend itself to the favor of every true-hearted Southerner? We believe it is the best policy the South can pursue for her safety at this crisis. It will secure ..a Union of the South for tbe sake of the South.— • This is what is so greatly needed. The want of it heretofore has been * tbe direful spring of woes unnumbered*’ to our section of tbe Union- How •Busy to remedy this! • The"- North would fear to trespass upon a United South. A united South . could DEMAND hey sights ot the. North and more than this, OBTAIN THEM. Let . the State then act upon the recommendation of the Convention. , Let delegates be.ppointed upon tbe par; of Geor gia. Lei us endeavor to obtain unanimity of feel ing and unity of actiea at the. South. Thia will he for more terrible to the North than “an army -writh banners.” It may prays the .salvation of the South. Bat it not, if all flense of justice has "de parted from tbe North—if tho fires upon the altars of our father* Union, are quenched forever, it iy home, has kindly forwarded us a tele graphic despatch from Atlanta? famishing cheer ing and important intelligence from Mississippi.—■ A telegraphic despatch from Jackson, Mississippi, was received at Nashville, on the day of tbe ad journment, saluting the Convention with three cheers in the name of Mississippi, and stating that the Legislature had convened; that Gov. Quitman’s message was “ all right,” and that forty thousand copies of it had been ordered to be published.— The “ Great Union Meeting” at which Gen. Foote was to make his grand effort to sustain himself, had proved to be a failure, and the Southern Rights Party were fn high spirits. Tbe Memphis Eagle mentions a fact posses sing unusual interest at this time. A gentleman in (hat vicinity lately emancipated bis slave in number. A place for their future residem been purchased in Illinois, a passage secured for them in a boat ready to start, and the money paid, when the slaves clamorously entreated for permis sion to remain. They were warned that if granted they would continue in servitude, but they protested that this was what they desired, and ingly returned to their former homes, wh they “are now at work as busy and cheerful bees.’’ This tarnishes but another proof of the fact that tho negroes of the South are more con tcntcdwnd comfortable than any other laboring clap on the face of the globe. War in Uayti.—Advices ftoir Jcrcmic, Ifajt to the 15th ol October, state that hostilities have actually commenced between the Hayticns and Dominicans. On the 9th ult, as the vanguard of Sclouque's army was decending the Pass of Boni- ca, they were attacked by about 500 Dominican troops, who drove the Haytiens with terrible slaughter. The announcement of this defile skir mish caused much uneasiness to the Emperor, who marched on the 11th from Petit Goa ve, at the head of his stafT,and 400 of his Guards, to take the field in person against the Dominicans. In addition to the above defeat, allaytien brfg-of-war, with 150 men on board, was captured off Scott's Bay, by two Dominican schooners of war or gun boats, and carried aa a trophy into Macao Roadstead. These hostilities have had a very disastrous effect on the trade of the Island.

Tbe Island from 90 to 100 miles long and 20 or 25 miles width, uninhabited, situated at the month of the St. Lawrence, and regarded as a dangcroui obstacle to navigation, fn case the project above iferred to is carried out, it is said the British Gov ernment will construct a harbor there, by convict labor, in order to render it attractive to shipping. Another motive to the enterprise, is the cheapness of transporting convicts to the island, as compared with the cost of conveying them to Van Dieman" Land. eral land ? Was this done 1 Instead of that they invited to come, and they did come from Eu rope, Asia, Africa, South America, and every part of this inhabitable Globe, Mexicans, Indians, Chi- sse, Jews and Gentiles, seized upon onr properly, rganized a state government, and excluded from California who? The North and Foreigners?— No, they are invited to come and participate, but it you and I who fought for it, and paid for it. Is this right ? Is this justice ? Had California been organized into a Territo- torial Government, and the Mexican Laws abolish ing slavery been repealed, there would before this have been one hundred thousand negro fel lows in the rich mines of California, making from 5 to 10 ihousand dollars a year, and enhancing our properly at home at feast fifty per cent; and the rich treasures which are now flowing into the pockets of the North, and to the North, and to the various extremities of this wide world, would now be crowning the efforts of Southern men. Ami because we complain at this outrage we are told we are contending for an abstraction. A beautiful abstraction, an abstraction by which we arc cheat ed and defrauded. California is gone, but we are told we have gotten Utah and New Mexico. Let us see how much. When we purchased from Mexicothese Territories, there was a statute law in force prohibiting slavery. But Mr. Clay—the whole North, with one nnitei voice, and your great Union champions, Toombs and Steph say these laws are still in force, and will continue ; in force until repealed by Congress. Well, the last Congress organized governments lor Utah and Mexico. But did she repeal those statute ? The North was asked to do so, but lused. It follows therefore as a necessary conse quence, that the South is excluded from the whole of our newly acquired territory. And yet Toombs is insulting us by saying that the South has gottop all she asked, or had a right to expect. And the Howell Cobb, in his address to tbe citizens of Athens, told them the South had gained a tri umph. Yes, a glorious triumph in which the North lias gained all, and the South lost every thing.
