Win. c. Rive*. Castle Hill, December 8, 1860. My Dear Sir : I observe that you have made a proposition in your House for holding a solemn family council, consisting of a member for each State, upon the present distracted and eminently critical condition of the Confederacy. This is right and proper. The great work of our fathers, which has preserved us in peace and happiness for near three quarters of a century, and given rise to a spectacle of national growth and devel opment without any, the remotest, parallel in the history of the world, ought not to be abandoned without the most earnest efforts for its preserva tion. Hut will these or any efforts avail? Unless a very different spirit from that which seems thus far to have animated both of the extreme parties can be successfully invoked, Jthe prospect would be gloomy indeed. It is useless row to inquire into the causes which have led to the present condition of things. The recent triumph of a powerful sectional party in an election for the two highest offices of the Government with its candidates taken exclusively from its own section, voted for exclusively by its own section, and with a political creed, avowedly antagonistic to the interests and institutions of the other great divisions of the Confederacy—is an event which necessarily awakens both anxiety and resentment in the opposite section, and, Accord ing to the most ordinary maxims of human pru dence and self-respect, calls for an attitude of vig ilance, firmness, and, if need be, of inflexible re sistance. It is the first time in our political annals that such a thing has been attempted or ventured up on, and argues, to say the least, an extraordinary degree of temerity and heedlessness on the part of those who have made the experiment, in the face of the solemn and not unfriendly warnings which were addressed to them. It is not the in dividual elected, whoever he may be, hut the hos tile sectional combination which elected him that constitutes both the danger and the offence. What, then, is to be done? Shall we rush at once to a dissolution of our compact of union ? tear down the pillars of the temple which contains the precious deposit of our rights and liberties ; and bury ourselves—for a time at least-in a com* mon ruin with our deluded or offending confecer ates? This would seem to be the course of des peration and blindness, not of reason and delibe ration. There are few, if any, among us vrho do not feci and acknowledge that the Constitution of the Unit ed States, if honestly and faithfully pursued in its letter and its spirit, affords every desirable guar antee for the rights and liberties of all the parties to it. We are entitled to demand and insist upon a loyal and upright fulfilment of all its obligations as the sole and indispensable condition on which the Union can be maintained. The equal rights of the States in the common Territories of the Union, the immunity of their domestic institutions from all external interference and control, direct or indirect, and the surrender of fugitives from service, are fundamental princi ples of the constitutional compact, which, howev er clear in theory, are practically denied in various quarters, and call, therefore, for new and une quivocal securities for their future observance.— If these securities are demanded with calm and dig nified but inflexible firmness—not with bluster and denunciation—l cannot doubt, that - M oc l, - iig majority, if not by all, of our eo-Staies. If any should reluse them, by that act of recusancy they will renounce the authority of the Constitution itself, and put themselves virtu ally out of the pale of the Union. Such terms of settlement as those here briefly indicated —susceptible in their details of more or less development—would, in my opinion, satisfy the views of a large majority of the slaveholding States. They would not be likely to obtain the acceptance of South Carolina, who seems deter mined, by a forgone conclusion, to go out of the Union in spite of every possible rouoMiion, and to araff as many ol her sister States as she can after her. What success her policy of cotrcina other States iuto disunion may have remains to be seen. But it may, not unreasonably, be presum ed that Georgia, who did not recognize her dicta torial authority in 1832 and 1851, would prefer her own platform, laid down with so much wisdom and firmness in the latter year, and which, with one or two suggested additions, is so well adapted to meet the requisitions of the present crisis. If Georgia, true to the traditions of her former pa triotic policy, should be satisfied with an adjust ment reconciling the Constitutional rights ot the South with the preservation of the Union, the probability is that her neighbors, Alabama and Florida, would be equally so. Hut, w hatever might be the decision of those States, there can be little doubt that Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Missouti, Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas, and, it is to be hoped, Misssissippi also, would cordially unite in such a plan ol adjustment. These are the natural allies of \ irginia in every great crisis ot the Republic. She can never di vorce herself from Maryland, Kentucky, Tennes see, and North Carolina—States which immedi ately surround her, and w ith which she has so man j corn moil interests of the most intimate and vital character. ,And when it is recollected that, in one halt oi lier territory, she is a Western State, having for that portion of her domain, her natural outlet to the ocean by the river Missisippi, she is, by that circumstance as well as by the large number of her children who now people its magnificent valley, linked by the tie 9of kindred feeling and a common destiny to those flourishing and prosperous States which have risen to such magic wealth and power upon its fertile borders. It is also to be remarked that the slaveholding States ol the. valley of the Mississippi, by their po sition on the banks of a great stream, assigned by Providence as a common avenue of commerce lor themselves and other powerful communities inhabiting its upper parts, and having dissimilar domestic institutions, can never lightly regard a severance ol the Union by such a line—an event which would briug with it to them, inevitable conflicts aud the danger of national controversies and wars, as is abundantly proved by the history of the river when its mouth was held by an inde pendent and foreign Power. While these States, therefore, are sensitively alive to whatever affects the security of their domestic institutions or jeop ards their equal constitutional rights in the Union, and are ready at all times to make every sacrifice to defend them, as the Statep commonly denom inated border slave Slates also are, they are yet not smitten—any more than those border States with a passion for disunion for its own sake, or disposed to rush into it heedlessly and unnecessa rily. Let, then, the States I have mentioned—rein forced it is to be hoped by Georgia and her two neighbors—unite in their demands upon the non slaveholding States, and say to them frankly and plainly, but sobeily and kindly, that the time has come when the authority of the Constitution, which is the bond between them, miut be recog nised, or that Union will inevitably perish ; that there must be no longer acts of State legislation, iu the guise of “personal liberty” laws, to nullify and set at naught a solemn and unequivocal com pact written in the Constitution ; that there must be no attempts, covert or open, by Congiessional legislation lo assail or underiniue their domestic institutions ; and that their full and perfect equal ity under the Constitution, as co-States of the Federal Union, must be loyally acknowledged and iaithlully respected. As these were the terms, well understood on all sides, on which they came into the Union, so they are the only terms, con sistent with honor or justice, or self-respect, on which they can be expected to remain in it. The justice and reasonableness of such a de mand, urged wiih the solemn earnestness and dig nity which the occasion imports, cannot fail to be heeded, if not by all, by the major or most import ant part of our Confederates. Pennsylvania and and New Jersey, ever loyal and true to the Union who have stood firmly by their Southern breth ren in the most trying periods of their history, both before and since the adoption of the Consti tution —would, I am persuaded, feel and acknowl edge its justice. New Jersey has already given her answer, in advance, to such au appeal by her vote iu the Presidential election ; and although Pennsylvania voted differently in that contest, it mast be borne in mind that there were issues supposed to be in volved in the eleciioti affecting the peculiar inter ests of her industrial which doubtless mainly influenced her vote. Whenever an issue I shall be distinctly presented on the preservation, | by her good faith and loyalty, of that Union, of l u to Vi M lie Keystone, no one conversant with her history can doubt where Pennsylvania will be found. Nor can I doubt, when the day of solemn decis ion shall arrive, that the powerful Northwestern States—taken out of the side of Virginia, whose children are still widely diffused among their bold and enterprising population—bordering, as they do, on Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and Missouri, as well us on \ irginiu, and having a common interest with the slaveholding States occupying the banks of the Mississippi in the use of that great Mediter ranean channel of intercourse and trade, will rally with those States, cordially and frankly, to a Union of equal rights, of justice, and fraternity. When we turn our eyes again to tlie eastward, we cannot doubt on w hat side will be found the im perial city, the centre of American industry and commerce—in herself a sovereign Power—with all her vast connected interests and dependencies. If'the internal questions now agitating the State of New York—many of them deeply affecting the rights and interests of the city—be added the su prenie one of a dissolution of the Union, it is not an improbable event, amid the revolutions of em pire. that we shall seethe southern portion of the State, comprehending the city, separate from the rest, and formed iuto anew and independent State, firmly adhering to the Central States of the Confederacy, slaveholding and non-slave’uolding, with those of the Valley of the Mississippi. I have ever believed that if unhappily—owing to the centrifugal and jarring tendencies sometimes manifested by the States at the extremeties of the Confederacy—our present glorious Union should be broken up, tlie States occupying the central belt of the Continent, from ocean to ocean, includ ing those of the Valley of the Mississippi, w ould still hold together, anil keep alive, with befitting dignity and power, the ancient name and proud traditions of the United States of America, and perhaps, in the end, win back to the fold those who might temporarily have strayed from it. At all events, 1 sec no reason to despair of the earlv success of the work of conciliation inaugu rated by your proposition, to the entire extent of the States I have enumerated, if prosecuted in the right spirit ; and when harmony and a good un derstanding shall have been established among then: —the great Central Plates of the Confedera cy—what rational motive can be felt by a few is olated States, whether at the North or the South, to stand aloof in sullen contumacy or unprofitable discontent? We have lately seen auspicious in dications that reflections such as these, with a re viving spirit of nationality, are making daily prog ress iu tbat quarter of tbeJConfederacy where the antagonism to Southern institutions has been heretofore tho strongest; and I will not yet aban* don the consoling hope that the present troubles of the country, by bringing more clearly to light the dangers wAiich threaten us, may end in placing the Constitution and the Union of our fathers up on more solid and lasting foundations than ever. Most truly and faitlully your friend, \V. C. RIVES. Hon. Alex. R. Botelf.r, Member House of Reps., Washington. Meeting iu Lauren*. Agreeably to previous notice a large and respec table number of the citizens of Laurens Couutv assembled at the Court House for the purpose of nominating delegates to the approaching Georgia Convention. On motion of William Adams, Dr. Nathan Tuck er and John W. Yopp were called to the Chair, and W. S. Ramsay and C. S. Guyton were request ed to act as secretaries.

Alter a brief interval, the committee reported the following preamble and resolutions, viz. : Whereas, a Convention has been called to ascer tain the will of the people of Georgia, as to the mode, measure and time of resistance, in view of the recent electiou of Abraham Lincoln to tbe residency, and who was promoted to that office by virtue of his principles of hostility to the insti tution of African Slavery ; and in view, also, of the fact that a number ol the States of this l niou huve passed what they call “ Personal Liberty Dills,” whereby the Constitution of the United States, and tne Fugitive Slave Law, enacted in pursuance thereof, to protect the slave owner i a ms property, is evaded —therefore, be it Resolved , That we re-aflirm tne Georgia Platform witn the additional proposition, viz.: —That where as, the fifteen Southern States are equally interest ed in the institution of slavery, we, therefore, re commend that Georgia co-operate with the siave States or as many as will unite with her in demand ing of those States which resist the execution of the Fugitive Slave Law, by virtue of their State l.ane, a repeal of their “ l’ersonal Liberty Ililld,” or a lull execution of the Constitution aud Laws, in spirit, lor the rendition of slaves to their owners by tne General Government; aud give us a tangi- Dle assurance ot their sineenty against the agita tion ot the Bubjeet of slavery in Congress. And when the time shall have been given for these States to act, and they then refuse to recognise and give us our rights, thatiAeu and not until then , Georgia should disrupt every tie that binds her to the Union. The resolutions being adopted, the Convention proceeded to nominate oy ballot. On counting out the votes it was ascertained that Dr. Nathan tucker aud John W. Yopp hud received the high est number ot votes, they were, therefore, declared the nominees. Upon motion, it was ordered that these proceed ings be published in the Milledgeville and Macou papers.

And whereas, the State of Gooigia, by her Legislature, has passed an act deoiaruig Ithat these aggressions and violations of the Con stitution demand resistance, and has called a Con vention of her people to determine upon the mode, measure and time of resistance. Therefore*, Resolved, That we people of the county of Me- IN & IWt w*’ VOLUME XXXVIII—NO. 40. pel the non-slaveholding States to repeal tieir Personal Liberty Bills, to the prompt, faithful and peaceable rendition cf our fugitive slaves, and as will give us such additional, unequivocal, and un mistakable constitutional guarantees for the pro tection of slavery in the common Territories, and our rights and equality in the Union, as shall war rant a final settlement of the question and a stop to its agitation. Resolved, That as our sister slaveholding States have a common de.-ttiny with us in so far as too slavery qu;stion is concerned, that it is proper that we should seek their co-operation—that the interest of each, as well as the nnited interest of all, requires such a line of policy. Resolved, That upon the refusal or failure of the non-slaveholdiug States to repeal their Personal Liberty Bills, and give us the guarantees aforesaid, that the sooner and faster we dissolve our connec tion with a people so faithless and treacherous the belter.
