For my eyes with tears are dim,

On white wing floating by,

Muscogee introduced the following resolutions :
Whereas, on Friday last, a joint Resolution of
enquiry originating in this Branch of the General
Assembly, and which subsequently passed the
Senate, was transmitted to llis Excellency Gov.
Brown; and whereas that resolution was couched
in respectful terms, and this House, f.B indicated in
its adoption, being desirous of receiving the in
formation called for, the language used bv His
Excellency in the veto of the bank bill, conveyed
to the country an imputation of undue and cor
rupt influence cn the part of the Banks over the
General Assembly; and whereas llis Excellency
has thought proper not to communicate with this
House, but in answering said join; resolution, to
the Senate has averred the following language:
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, )
Millkdokvillk, Ga., Dec. 3, 18t>0. )
To the Senate:
A resolution this day laid before me discloses
the fact that a misconstruction may have been put
upon a sentence used in my message addressed to
the Senate, accompanying the return of the Bank
bill. As the conduct of the Senate in connection
with the message has been neither hasty nor the
result of passion, but bus been characterized by
dignity and self-respect, a3 -well as u pioper res
pect for a co-ordinate branch of the Government,
it affords me much pleasure to say to the Senate,
that no charge of bribery was intended ; that the
language used was general, and wus intended lo
be directed against tvhat is >'” ‘”<• J — 44 ” “
i.b., wnen gentlemen leave their homes
aud spend money for traveling expenses, tavern
bills, Ac., Ac., for the purpose of hanging round
the General Assembly to try to influence the
minds of members so as to procure the passage of
a patticular bill.
1 see nothing in the Message which I desire to
retract or modify. As no member of the Senate
to whom it was addressed, seems to have suspect
ed that any sentence contained in it was intended
as as reflection to himself, till the discovery was
supposed to have been made elsewhere, I doubt
not. upon a calm review of the language used,
that each Senator will now say that lie secs in it
no imputation upon himself; as conscious inno
cence will never appropiiate to itself language in
which others can see no charge, or even dubious
language as an imputation of criminality.
JOSEPH E. BROWN.
And wherea 4 ’said communication is an artful
evasion of a charge which His Excellency cannot
maiutain, and which must fail to deceive that peo
ple who have so generously leposed in him their
confidence; and whereas the language of said
communication is disrespectful to the House:
Therefore,
Be it Resolved, That His Excellency, Gov.
Brown, has not only abused the privileges of this
House, but has failed to maintain in his oliieial
intercourse with this body, that dignity of deport
ment which becomes the Chief Magistrate of Geor

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, )
Millei.gevillk, (ia., Dec. 5, 1860. )
On the thirtieth ult., as the Executive ol Geor
gia, I returned to the Senate, in which it originat
ed, a bill knowu as the bank Bill, accompanied by
a message containing the reasons why I withheld
from it my sanction. On reading the message, I
am not informed that the Senate took nny excep
tion to the language contained in it, or construed
it as containing any censure upon uny member of
that body.
Some time after the message had been read and
acted upon in the Senate, certain members of the
House of Representatives, who seem desirous of
assuming to themselves the championship of
the cause of the banks in their efforts to w rong
and oppress the people of this State, choose to
construct a sentence in mv message to the Senate,
in‘o a charge of bribery against the members of
the General Assembly ; and for the purpose of
getting up an issue with me as the Executive of
the State, and divert the minds of the people from
the true issue, and thereby shielding themselves
from public indignation, brought forward a reso
lution in the House, calling upon me for informa
tion upon their own constiuclion of the language
used ; which resolution was passed in the midst
of an excitement raised lor the occasion, after a
disrespectful attack, which the House permitted
to be made on the Executive, in the debate, and
was transmitted to the Senate for its concurrence.
That body acted with dignity and deliberation, in
considering the resolution ; but concurred in it,
as the demand hud been made by the House.
This resolution was communicated to me ; and,
on the Rrd instant, in response to it, I addressed
to the Senate, to which body the message con
taining the language complained of had been ad
dressed, a respectful, and, I trust, satisfactory
communication, disclaiming any intention to make
any charge of bribery ; and stating that my lan
guage. which was general, was directed against
the lobby influence, which I consider the most
growing ; nd dangerous evil in our legislation.
The House of Representatives thought proper to
construe this last mentioned message, as offensive ;
for the reason, as I am left to presume, that it
was not addressed to them ; and, on the fourth
day of tills month, passed and ordered spread up
on its journals, a preamble and resolution, charg
ing that I, in my last message to the Senate, had
been guilty of an evasion of a charge which I
could not sustain, and of an attempt to deceive :
and resolving that I have violated the privileges
of the House, and failed to maintain, in jay inter
course with that hodv that dignity of deportment
which becomes the Chief Magistrate of Georgia.
The charges contained in said preamble and
resolution, are unjust and wholly destitute of
truth, in the following particulars:
Ist. My message to the Senate, in response to
said resolution, coutains no attempt to deceive,
and no evasion of a charge; as it frankly disa
vows the construction put upon the language of
my veto message, by tne resolution.
2d. I have violated no piivilege of the House of
R presenutives. As the House, in the debates
upon said resolutions, compromised its dignity by
I permitting one or more of its members to make a
personal attack upon the Executive of the State,
and to descend to low personal abuse, unbecom
ing the character of a legislator, no rule of privi
lege known to parliamentary usage, entitled the
House to a reply.
3d. As the House, by its own unparliamentary
course, as specified above, precluded a reply from
the Executive, none was given ; and 1 have had
no official intercourse with the House, upon the
subject matter of that resolution. Therefore, the
charge that I have not maintained proper dignity,
in an intercourse which never existed, cannot lie
true in fact.
I therefore, enter this, my solemn protest,
against the said preamble and resolution, passed
bv the House of Representatives, on the 4th inst.:
because they were conceived iu passion, prompted
by a spirit of personal revenge and not of public du
ty— undignified in their bearing, untrue in their
statements, and unjust in the assault which they
make upon a co-ordinate branch of the govern
ment. And I order this protest to be spread up
on the permanent records of the Executive De
partment, and published in such papers in this
State, as may publish said preamble and resolu
tion of the House.
After the disclaimer made in my message to the
Senate, in response to said resolution, should any
member of the House feel conscious of guilt, and
peisist in applying to himself a charge of bribery
or dishonesty, I have no wish to become bis pub
lic prosecutor ; but deem his punishment indeed
severe, when left to himself, to be lashed and tor
mented by the goadings of a guilty conscience.
JOSEPH E. BROWN.
From the Federal Union.
C'oooperntlou among the Seceding States.
As I have been honored by the requests from
several citizens of this and adjoining States, for
my opinion as to the proper plan to be adopted
by the seceding Stales, for the purpose of secur
ing united and harmonious action —may I ask of
you a coruer in your “Daily” for *he expression of
an opinion, perhaps, of but little consequence.
Such co-opera!ion I deem of great importance.
The greater the number of States which retire to
gether from this Uiiion—the more dignity and
moral weight will the move.went have. Any
haste iu one State to move iu advance of the oth
ers, (though not so intended) will have or be con
strued into an appearance of a disregard to the
will and action of others. And while I am free
to admit that each State must act for herself aud
resume by her own independent will her delegated
sovereignty, yet I conceive that it is possible and
highly desirable that all of them should assign
some common day for such resumption. In the
meanwhile proper steps might be taken not only
to secure harmonious action, but to provide for a
future Confederacy.
To be more explicit—South Carolina holds her
Convention ou the 17th of this month—Florida on
the 3rd ol January—Alabama and Mississsppi on
the 7th, and Georgia on the 10th of the same
month. Oilier States may appoint earlier or later
days. If the Convention of South Carolina would
by ordinance declare that State out of the l nion,
! the ordinance to tale effect at some future day—
say the 15th or 20th of February, and by the same
ordinance should provide for commissioners or
delegates to meet similar commissioners from other
seceding States —at an earlier day, (say Ist Feb
ruary,) to consult and consider the propiiety ol
stepping from the one Union into another, based 1
upon the Constitution of the United States; and j
if the several Conventions which follow should in
like manner fix upon the same day lor secession, ;
and make similar provisions for delegates for con- j
simutton, we should present to the other States
and the world au example of calm deliberation j
worthy of a free people. While at the same time j
there would be no symptom of hesitancy or inde
cision, which could be construed into the slightest
doubt as to the propriety of our action, or the fix
edness of our purpose. And all this ran he con
summated before the hated dynasty is inaugurated
as our Government.
But objections suggest themselves to my mind
as to the course: First, by giving notice of an
intention, the seceding Sta(e invites preparation
by the General government to defeat it. This may
be avoided by provision in the Ordinance for ear
lier action in such an event. Second, Is such con
sultation and negotiation Constitutional while we
we remain in the Union? I think it is on the part
of a State seceding and only postponing the day of
secession, while it might not be on the pa t of
States purposing still to remain in the Union.
I have said that the new Confederacy should be
based upon the Constitution of the United States.
Our people love that Constitution, while they are
heartily sick of the Union. Os necessity some
changes will be required—and the Convention of
Delegates thus chosen could provide for such
changes.
Thus we could have true co-operation, that is,
among States ol similar views and intentions, and
thus we could provide for an almost immediate
discharge of all the functions of Government.
With great diffidence I make these suggestions
for the consideration of more experienced minds,

The Nashville Ran-iier. of Saturday, published a
long and very interesting letter from lion. John
Bell, addressed to the lute mass meeting in Vicks
bur*;, giving liis views on tho existing political
troubles of the country. We can only copy the
concluding paragraphs to-day :
Viewing the subject in every light in which it
can be presented, 1 am constrained to say that by
uo principle of Public Law, by no code of morals,
by no law of Earth or Heaven, would Missisippi or
any other State be justified, under existing circum
stances, in withdrawing from the Union. I confi
dently believe that tlie happiest consequences
would result from a conference of all the Southern
States. las confidently believe that a majority of
the people of the North are this day prepared to ,
agree to any lair and reasonable plan of adjust- ‘
raent which such a Conference of liie Southern j
States would propose. I purposely abstaiu from
suggestions what, iu my opinion, should be the
basis of such plan of adjustment.
After what I have written on the preceding
pages of this letter, it is scarcely necessary to say
that I am resolved to adhere to the Union. I
will not say that in no possible contingency would
*1 consent to a separation of the States. But I
would exhaust every constitutional means for the
redress of our grievances, before I would think of
dissolving the Union. lam not willing that one
State should be withdrawn from the Union—that
one Star should be stricken from the bright clus
ter which now emblazons the national flag.
I have long foreseen the piobable occurrence of
a crisis like the present, and shrank from the pos
sible issue of it; and 1 could never contemplate
the destruction of the Union without aensations
not unlike those which I imagine would over
whelm me on beholding the last going down of
the sun—never to rise again forever.
With the highest consideration and esteem, I
am your tellow-citizen,

Prospects of Wheat. —Owing to the partial
failure of the late wheat crop in Tennessee, and the
scarcity of seed, it was expected, savs the South
ern Homestead , that the amount of wheat sown
this fall would lie comparatively small. From what
we have seen and heard, however, we are satisfied
that these circumstances led to a result the oppo
site of what was anticipated. Doubtless the scar
city and high prices of seed deterred some farmers
from sowing as much as they desired, but from
what we have been able to gather upon the subject,
we are inclined to believe that there is a greater
breadth of land now in wheat in Tennessee than
has been known for many years. We urged the
sowing of wheat from several considerations, tl e
chief among them were, that we believed it would
be remunerative, and, again, that during the pres
ent winter, it would, by affording pasture for stock,
go far towards helping out the farmers of the State,
in taking their animals comfortably through the
rigors which necessarily follow a protracted mid
summer drouth.
The present growth of the young wheat through
out the country is represented as remarkably fine.
It is healthy and vigorous, and therefore exceed
irgly promising. Having been sown early, and
put in the ground better than usual, s a general
thing, the stalks are well rooted. The weather
has been propitious. F'roni these considera
tions it is evident that the danger of freezing out
is much less than last winter. If properly man
aged, by being kept well grazed off, and favorable
weather attends the crop, an exceedingly prolific
harvest may be anticipated.

From the Marietta Statesman.
Stand by your (eights.
I ea, stand by them. But, are you sure you
know what they ore/ An English nobleman is
sid to own so many houses that ho does not
know them all—and we have heard of Southern
planters holding so many slaves that they could
not recognize all of their own property. Thpso
men are held to be eminently blessed, in all the
luxury of wealth. But you, as an American citi
zen, have also a wealth of blessings and hence
when you talk of standing by your rights we a<k
i! you know what a wealth of rights yon have and
i! you know them all ? We do not think you do
aid feel ourselves incapable of enumerating a
tythe of them.
“We have civil rights.” Ves, your State gives
you and protects you in the rights of life, liber
ty and property. These are great rights and of
inestimable vnlue—such us only Constitutional
freedom can secure to you.
“We have the political right to regulate and
control these rights in Georgia through the popu
lar voice.” es, this is the right of self-govern
ment, inherited by you and resulting front a series
ol struggles through which your ancestors passed
for nearly a thousand years, and which the Amer
ican Revolution crowned with success. Will you
stand by the right in its legitimate exercise?—
Some ot our people already think that you do not
understand this right—that it is in unsafe hands
—that it had belter he taken from you—we
yon will stand by it and try to understand its im
portance to yoursell and those who are to come
after you.
This is a brief summary of your rights as a
Georgian—life, liberty, property, political equality,
freedom of opinion and of religious worship. Ar
these all the rights you are to stand tv? T->
stand by them you mean to defend and preserve
them. llow are you to do that? ll.n ha he\

This Georgia could not have given you. On tire
contrary, her compurat : ve weakness, solitary and
alone, would invite aggression and you coaid have
neither protection abroad uor safety at home.
“But what,” you ask, “if our other rights are
infringed?”—“must we submit?” They cannot
be infringed without an equal injury being done
to many of your sister States. The power of com
bination is not taken from you, and upon this de
pends the preservation of all your rights. If you
cannot stay aggression—if you cannot protect
your rights under the Confederacy of your fath
ers, then consult with the States aggrieved with
you and combine for another nationality and an
other flag which, though it may afford the same
ample protection—will not leave you at the mercy
of your enemies.
Passible Events.
The Boston Courier presents the following pic
ture of the futuie to the people of Massachusetts :
i It seems now far too likely that the dissolution
| 0 j . Cnion is at band, and the creation of a
i multitude of small powers, instead of the great
i Jwt-cUsa nation that the United States has been.
*® that such or such a State mav go out, im
plies the leaving of u large remainder intact,’and
would indicate that New England, and chieflv
Massachusetts, the arch agitator, shall have a
voice in the settlement of the remainder. This is
not a logical sequence. The Union once broken,
it tnay be made up again under entirely new com
binations, and New England may be left out. —
Suppose, then, .New I ork to be made a free port,
and our present protected home market to be cut
off, what is our position? We hare got to com
pete naked and defenceless, with the pauper labor
ol Europe. We do not raise our own food hko
England, and depend upon our sales of manufac
tured articles to pay for it. Where, then, will our
laborers stanch if obliged to seek markets in com
petition with England and Germany? Must they
not work at the same prices? Let our working
men once see the pit to which the Republican
poet3 and philosophers have led them, and will
they not hurl them from their leadership? The
present turn of affairs seems likely, alter all, to af.
feet labor more unfavorably than anything else.—
The rich will be made richer and the poor poorer,
—and by whose instrumentality, and for whose
benefit ? Our people may learn too late the folly
of listening to crack-brained philosophers, poets
and theologians.
The Di ties ok Delegates.—The duties of de!-
epates to tire Convention which is to be called by
the Governor, are clearly expressed by the Joint
Resolutions authorizing the assemblage of said
Convention. By these resolutions it is made their
duty to consider, determine, and do whatever else
in their judgment may be necessary to protect the
rights, interests and honor of the State. Os course
we would not approve of sending delegates to this
Convention without understanding the sentiments
they entertain as to the main policy that will gov
ern their action; but it would’ be manifestly
wrong, and contrary to the spirit and intention of
the Resolutions under which the Convention is
called, to extort pledges or impose condition.* up
on them in advance, for the reason that when hi
Convention with the assembled wisdom ot the
State, and after having by consultation obtained
the views of other Southern States, they will be
better prepared to act wisely and prudently than
any one now could be possibly be able to dh ;.-.te.
We are gratified to know that the c'-ns’er
placed upou tbe Resolution auopreu as the piat
form of the meeting *t the Capitol on Saturday,
was that of Concerted Separate State ActioD. and
that both the candidates nominated endorsed this
construction and advocated the policy ot a free
consultation and interchange of opinion w.th the
other Southern States. Before ibe declaraii< nos
secession should be ventured upon, this, we trust
will put a quietus to the doctnme of immediate,
independent State secession, and that the delegates
will be allowed to go to the Convention uDtram
meied—to act ss the circumstances and their
own jugment may dictate. —Montgomery Mail.
Pcxcn ox America.—The large picture in Punch
is entitled “ Latest from America,” and represents
the Prince of Wales on his return home after his
American tour. The royal youth has suffered a
change during his absence. He Las become
Americanized, and now sits before the grate with
his legs resting on the mantel-piece, a cigar in his
mouth, and a pocket pistol in his band, while a
box of fragrant Havannas is on a table near by.—
A sherry cobbler, with its characteristic straws, is
on the mantel-piece. The young Prince wears a
shocking bad hat, tipped over on one side ; sports
a goatee, and really looks like “one of the boys.”
In the back-ground stands Prince Albert, gazing
on his son with an expression of amazement, not
unmingled with fear. His Royal Highness, Junior,
patronizingly remarks to His Royal Highness, Se
nior, “ Now, sir-ree, if you’ll liquor up and settle
down, I’ll tell you about ray travels.”
Sorxo Aovick. —The following extract is from
an Address written by Mr. Memminger to the peo
ple of South Carolina:
We point only to our own history, to the text
book of the American Revolution, as your only
safe aud certain guide. We say nothing as to
what States or how many States should unite their
councils; that is for your judgment aud honesty
to determine. But in view of our Revolutionary
examples, aud the duties of those who profess to
follow them, we hold three propositions unques
tionably true: That no Slate should secede singly
under present circumstances; that a Congress of
the States proposing to secede should precede their
action; that the Congress so formed should exhaust
all honorable ‘ efforts to reform and restore the
purity of the present Union on a safe basis before
they proceed to destroy it. Hasty and irapaiieDt
advisers are bad advisers. Even tbe virtues of
ardent and irregular n.inds, impracticable in tem
perament, dogmatic in utideis aading, are copious
sources of calamitous counsels. Let us reserve
bold celerity ft r action whenever it’ comes. But
in our jouncib, in those, above all, which may
lead to revolution, we cannot value too carefully
the precept which teaches us to make haste slow*
