7 §mm, M. DWINELL, Editor & Proprietor. OEO. T. STOVALL, Associate Editor Saturday Morning, May 20,1800. The Resolution* of the Floyd Democ racy. Wo regret that we were notable on Thursday to publish in full the proceed ings of the Democratic meeting on Tuesday, for the information of the Drnoe. racy of the County. We had written an extended and particular account of them, and placed it in the hands of the compositor, but when we procured a copy of the resolutions we found that the unocoupied space in our columns would not contain them both. We Were therefore compelled to write hasti ly the brief report which we published, with only a single remark. We now wish to say a few words about the resolutions, which were drafted by Col. 8. Touche" the chairman of the committee. They contain in few words an unanswerable argument in favor of the position taken-by the entire South, and a complete vindication of the course of the Southern delegates, who withdrew from the Charleston Conven tion. They set out with the axiom, “That the protection of all the rights, both of person and property, of all citizens is the sole and legitimate purpose for which all governments are -instituted.” This proposition is older than any govern" ment; for it was the necessity that men felt for protection which first drew them together to form societies, and adopt laws, or “rules of human action" to gov ern them in their intercourse and mete out justice to the weak as well as the strong. This then is a complete refu tation of the silly objection raised by timid Southern men against the asser tion of our right to Congressional pro tection, namely; that if we claim the right of Congress to protect, we at the same time conoedo the right to destroy. In other words, when we call upon the government to carry out the very end for which it was instituted, wo confer upon it the right to do just the reverse, and defeat that end. But we fear we will insult the intelli gence of our readers by dwelling longer upon such a plain and common sense proposition. - The next'resolution but declares it the duty of our Government to protect ui everywhere; especially in the Ter ritories, our common property. The third resolution asserts the fact that a majority of the people in the free States are endeavoring to get control of the government for “the purpose of withholding this protection from three thousand millions of our property,” from which it derives more than two thirds of the revenues necessary for its admin istration in order to afford us that very protection. The fourth resolution follows as a nat ural consequence, that the demand made by the Southern delegates to the Charleston Convention, that this right to protection should be at least recog nised, “was highly expedient, reasona ble and just.” The fifth resolution states that the refusal of sixteen free ; States to make this recognition asked bypeventcen States—fif teen of which own the property which is in jeopardy—“gives painful evidence that a majority of the delegates from those free States sympathise with the Blaok Republicans in their unrelent ing hostility to our constitutional rights." These propositions being true, and they follow as logically os a sequence ever followed a premise, then the Dem ocratic party and the whole Southern people cannot do otherwise than accord to the Southern delegates who withdrew from the Charleston Convention the commendation contained in the sixth resolution—that their conduct was "wise, manly and patriotic.” But one ob jection can be urged against these reso lutions, and it is the only one we have yet seen, and it is, that it may'drive off some Northern Democrats. Then, as Mr. Terhune said, let them go. If they are unwilling to recognize our constitu tional rights they are unfit for Southern men to affiliate with. And that some think otherwise, only proves the fact that with them the Democratic party is the paramount political good. None of our Party’s Funeral The ingratitude manifested by some of the Democratic press towards those of the" Opposition who occasionally show a disposition to condole with , them in their misfortunes, reminds us .. of the anecdote of the little boy follow- ' tog his fathers corpse to the grave, Afi^the^ urchin, whose heart was touched with sympathy, joined him in his la mentations and weeping, when the little’fello w- ceased his blubbering for a ciples at stake. The political doctrines contained in the majority platform rqjbcidd at Charleston, were first pro mulgated and advocated in Georgia by the Opposition party. In 1859 the Democratic candidates for Congress were forced to adopt them or be defeat, ed. The Southern people, with the exception of a few Douglasites, have laid them down ns the ultimatum be tween freesoilism and Southern equal ity. TheSouthern delegations present ed them at Charleston as the only platform they could, consistently with honor and interest,accept. The North ern Squatters refused to grant it, and an effort is now being made by Southern Squatters, to strike down the men who loved “Truth, Justice and the Constitu tion” more than party. We cannot, and will not stand as idle and indiffer ent spectators and see noble and patri otic men fighting for our principles and our rights, beat down and trampled in the dust. As long as they fight faith fully, we will fight with them ; and if they must fall we will fall by their side. The Republican Party and Squatter Sovereignty. While the Chicago Convention was in session it was announced upon authori ty of the telegraph that that body had repudiated Squatter Sovereignty. This caused us some surprise, for although we knew that the Republicans declared “that the normal condition of all the territory of the United States was that of freedom,” still we wore somewhat puzzled to know why they should object to a Territorial Legislature passing ti law the more effectually to exclude sla very. Wo therefore looked with some eagerness for the platform. Wo hero give the clause upon this subject: Tenth, That in their recent vetoes by their federal governors of the acts of the Legislature of Kansas and Nebraska, prohibiting slavery in those Territories, wo find a practical illustration of the boasted Democratic principles of non intervention and popular sovereignty, embodied in the Kansas and Nebraska bill, and a denunciation of the decep tion and fraud involved therein. It is true the name of non-intervention and popular or Squatter Sovereignty, is denounced, but not the principle itself. It is the ‘‘vetoes of the federal governors of the acts of the Territorial Legislatures prohibiting slavery," to which they object, and not the power assumed by the Legislature to pass these acts, which was tho “practical illustra tion” of Squatter Sovereignty. Had Mr. Douglas been Presidentof the Uni ted States instead of Mr. Buchanan, his “federal governors” would have sanc tioned instead ot vetoing these Territo rial law, and tho Black Republican par ty instead of condemning would have approved this “practical illustration of non-intervention and popular sover eignty.” Letter from Ex-Gov. Lumpkin. Hon. Wilson Lumpkin has responded to the “painful forebodings” Committee. He says he is a “Jeffersonian Democrat of tho old school;” charges democrats with breaking tho “eleventh command ment j” thinks Georgia might ns well “play out the game commenced at Charleston, by being represented at Baltimore;” is of the .opinion that if “unprincipled office seekers could all be leheaded in one day, tho strife upon tho slavery question would be at rest considers the question of Squatter Sov ereignty settled against us in tho com promise measures of 1850; and says we “ought to have lought the battle of Southern Jligh/s then, instead of plat forming it till now, to bo fought on tho platform of a Democratic Convention, assembled for the purpose of trying to agree upon the subject of a satisfactory division of the loaves and fishes of office.” [For tho Borne Courier.] Messrs. Editors :—In looking over the Southerner <h Advertiser, of the 24th inst., I notice that Dr. Wofford, has given on. ly a short account of the Democratic meeting of Tuesday last, and did not publish the proceedings, as requested by the unanimous voice of the Convention. The Dr. being entirely opposed to the proceedings, I presume, he was fearful that tho action of Old Floyd would have some effect on those counties that have not yet appointed their delegates to Milledgeville. The Dr. and his friends are in a hopeless minority in Floyd, and feel very uncomfortable ot the direction matters are taking. The Dr. is entirely mistaken as to the num ber voting to sustain the action of the seceding delegations from the Charles ton Convention. He says that there was only 15 or 20, when there was, fact, at least 50 present, who fully sus tained those of the Georgia delegation that withdrew from the Charleston Con vention. The Dr. says again, that there is some division among the delegates appointed to represent Floyd in the Convention at Milledgeville. That there may be no misunderstanding, as to how the Democracy of Floyd stands, I will give the names of tho delegates ap pointed, and all, with one exception, in favor of going to Richmond; they are as follows: Col. J. Watters, Col. S. Fouche, D. S. Printup, Z. B. Hargrove, W. B. Terhune, W. G. Foster, J. H. Russell, T. S. Price, D. M. Hood, Wm. Johnson, E. Hillyer—all as I have before said ful ly justify and sustain the seceding delegates, and in favor of going to Rich mond—with tho exception of Col. Wat ters. I bope the- Dr. and his friends will have a good time fn-their efforts to’- procure the nomination of Mr. Douglas, He is in such a stress of weather ttiat he has even condescended to speak a good word for Gov. Brown : I am glad to see that the Dr. is at lust willing to do jus- tiee-to his Excellency, in his white-wash, ing opporation; I hope that ho will again notice the Governor, who is willing to pardon the seceding delegations.— Now do Dr, National Democrat. said $h&rp)y t .‘‘You go 'long way from here, ’taint none o’ your Pa's funeral.” ;ftRiitnn>sra)|jw not weeping because of tho .death of Domocraqy.

But we hare prin- Grcat Earthquake in Peru, By the arrival of tho Aspinwall steamer Ariel, at New York, we have later dates from South and Central America: On the 22d of April Lima and Callao wore visited with a severe earthquake, which damaged more or less some two hundred and fifty buildings in the former place, and injured several per sons severely. It is said that there were fifty-two distinct shocks, some of which were of considerable duration— say from a half a minute to a minute. Tho greatest consternation prevailed throughout the city. Nearly the entire S tipulation abandoned their houses and ed to tho public squares, where many of them remained a day or two. Some 12,000 people were encamped on ono plaza alono. Tho loss of property in Lima is esti mated at $1,000,000. In Callao tho loss is only about $30,000, ns tho number of buildings damaged was not very great. But the greatest destruction of life and property was at a place called Chorillo.a celebrated watering place, not a great way from Lima. < Nearly the entire place was destroyed, and many lives were lost and a great number seriously injured. At tho time the steamer which brought this intelligence to Panama left the people were parading the streets with their priests, offering up petitions that further disasters might be averted. Gilmer Comity Speaks. Tho most cheering reports reach us from (be mountains of Georgia, that tlio National Democracy will not sanc tion the secession movement in Char leston, which so clearly point to a dis solution of tho Union of tho States.— Southerner <0 Advertiser, 24th inst. For the information of tiie people “here and hereabouts,” we publish tho resolutions upon this subject which were "unanimously adopted" at tile Demo cratic meeting in Gilmer. Resolved, 1st. That we heart’.lly ap- rove tho bold, honest and patriotic course of our delegates in sustaining me majority report, and therein with drawing from the Convention,upon the adoption of tho minority report. Resolved, 2d. That wo regard it the imperative duty of the Southern De mocracy to insist upon the platform re ported by Mr. Avery of North Carolina, as unequivocally recognizing our rights, and pledging the party to protect our property, of every description and na ture, wherever tho constitutional au thority of ;he government extends. Resolved, 3rd. That it is equally im portant to insist upon the nomination of a sound man, of known integrity, and whose past history will afford a sure guarantee, that tho Constitution will be faithfully administered, and the equal rights of every section preserved and protected. Resolved, 4tli. That the doctrine of squatter sovereignty as ..advocated by Stephen A. Douglas, is ahti-Dcmocratic, contrary to tho Dred Scott decision, inimical to the dearest interests of the South, and in violation of tho Constitu tion of tho United States, and is an in direct means of effecting tho same ob ject Wm. H. Seward and the Black Re publicans propose to by direct means — to neither of which will wo submit. Resolved, 0th. That in'the spirit of harmony, ns an invitation has been ex tended to tho delegations which with drew from tho Charleston to retssemblo nt Baltimore, commend the Georgia delegation to ro- unite with the national Convention, at Baltimore and urgo the adoption of the majority Platform, of the Charleston Convention, and tho nomination of n sound man, acceptable to tho South.— But that in the event that these rights should still bo denied them, then to withdraw, else they cannot represent us. This report from Gilmor “ is truly cheering,” but it does at least wink at “the secession movement in Charles ton.” Brigham talking to the Saints. Brigham Young, in a discourse to Ilia followers at the Tabernaole at Salt Lake City a short time since, said: “I fiave very little to say to men who are dissatisfied with my course, or with tho course of my brethren. Some have wished me to oxplain why we built an adobe wall around this city. Are there any saints who stumble ut such things ? O, slow of heart to un derstand and believe! I build walls, dig ditches, make bridges, and do a great amount and variety of labor that is of but little consequence, only to provide ways and means lor sustaining and preserving the destitute. I annually expend hundreds of thousands of dol lars almost solely to furnish employ ment to those in want of labor. Why ? I have potatoes, flour, beef, and other articles of food, which 1 wish my breth ren to hove, and it is better for them to labor for those articles, so far as they are able and have an opportunity, than to have them given to them. They work, and I deal out provisions, often when tho work does not profit mo. “I say to all grunters, grumblers, whineis, hypocrites, and sycophants, who snivel, crouch and crawl around tiie most contemptible of all creatures for a slight favor, should it euter my mind to dig down tho Twin Peaks, and I set men to work to do so, it is none of your business, neither is it the business of all earth and hell, provided I pay the laborers their wages. I am not (O bo called in question ns to what I do with my funds, whether I build high walls or low walls, garden walls or city walls ; and if 1 please, it is my right to pull down my walls to-morrow. If any one wishes to apostatize upon sucli grounds, the quicker ho does so the bet ter ; end if he wishes to leave the Ter ritory, but it is too poor to do so, I will assist him to go. Wo are much better off without such characters.” Speed Extraordinary—We alluded some days ago, to the appearance of flour from new wheat in the Augusta market. Its movement from the field to the channels of commerco are worthy of a record, showing that we of the South can be ns fast as tho Yankees, when we have a mind to. On Thursday morning the wheat was standing in the field, on the farm of Dr. Daniel, opposite this city. It was out, thrashed, winnow ed and sacked on that day, brought to Savannah, and taken by the night train 130 miles, to Stovall’s Excelsior mills, at Augusta, where it arrived early on Friday morning. By two o’clock, P. M., of that day it was ground, the flour bolt ed, re-saoked, and on the cars for Savan nah, arriving hereby ten o’clock, P. M. train, having undergone all these chan ges and travelled two hundred and six ty miles in less than forty-eight hours. But this is not all; early next morning (Saturday) twenty sneks of it wore on board tho steamer, and will bo in New York in time to be served up by the hotels at bJeakfeast on Tuesday morn ing! We have thus five days for the whole operation, including some eleven- hundred miles of travel! These energetic movements were per formed under the direction of Mr. Tiios. P. Stovall, the owner of tiie Excelsior Mills, and they entitlo him to be ranked, in the very best souse, among the fast man of his day.—Savannah Republican. ^eto $|dbeHifielfi)enf$. ATTENTION CAVALRY!
