REDUCTION.
f>ii this sobjpctthc lu«t Jaum.il holds tli** following lan
guage—“A largo majority of the people of Georgia bate
spoken at tbc election in Octotv r I st. \\ hv tiav. not
tJicir will been attended to? Why has thtir desires been
ilisreg irdcd by the last Legislature? 1« is seriously to be
h .ped that the voice of the majority wdl not be disobeyed
with impunity, and that those who have treated with con
tempt the wishes of their constituents will meet and have
imd that displeasure which they deserve.”
D i-s the tournal buiicve that any rnenber of the !ast
Legislature treated with contempt the wishes of bis con
stituents? l)o not the Editors of that paper know that
the difficulties in tiie way of a reduction of the number of
our Legislative body, relate to the principle on which that
• reduction shill be effected, and potto the raasonaideoess
«if ihe reduction itself? It is in vain to pass over the f.ict.
The difficulty of reducing the number of the Legislature
grows out of the wel* founded fear of the sin >11 counties,
that the reduction inleoded is one which will reduce them
to nothing. Tint division of a Slot ? into counties means
something or it means nothing. If >1 does not constitute
«ach county a separate individual with equal rights, then
it is a mere name. The preservation ol these lights is
Ihe principal reason for establishing two branches in the
L* gislatHre, as it is for the same arrangement in the Gov-
•ernment of the United States. Counties like Slates must
fcnve the preservation of their rights in th' ir own hands.
All experience proves, that it is as dangerous *o deliver
ourselves powerhrss into the hands of communities ns of
individuals. And we iiagaid nolhing’in avrrirg that the
weaker counties of this State lose every thing when they
Jose their equality in the Senate. Let ihe Journal com-
.forward with a just plan of reduction, one that will assure
the we iker counties that no wrong is intended them, and
their I bored statistical tables will be unnecessary. But
so !o»gas they hold on to their calculations about money
and numbers, forgetting the corporate rights of the coun
ties they may look for difficulties. The population of this
State s very tinequil, a few counties containing a large
majority of the population and wealth of the people. Is it
therefore just that the whole Legislative power should be
in their hands? Self-preservation is the first law of na
ture; it applies to societies as well as individuals Take
from tbe small counties their equality in the Senate, and
nr. odious system of patronage w.lt be the consequence.—
Tne weak would take shelter behind the strong to whom
they would bind themselves in shameless servility. The
Jonrual will agree with us that numbers alone would form
a fatal element in the powers given to tbe several States
of this Union. Why should it not be equally fatal as ap
plied to our counties with their great inequali ies of popu
lation? Nor docs the JUlican, rule of wealth and num
bers promise a jot better. Give the wealthy man with
his hundred slaves ns much power as ten poor men, and
the foundation of a monied aristocracy is laid, and in »yhat
country would such a feature of government be more odious
than in this, where the valor of the poor man may b<* d*
manded every hour to defi nd the rich against the dang*-
coas custody of his property. Turn this question asyou
essays, at what has been called the popularity of Mr. Gil
mer, Contrasts b it poorly with sucii as are forced by the
history of his administra'icn to the conclusion that lie
has forfeited all claim to the support of this insulted class
This fellow citizens. They asscrlfrcquently that he can
not expect to be sustained by Ihetn—and as these asser
tions are not based upon any declarations of the Clark
rarty tliat can f.tirly be regarded as the index to llicirgen-
-raI sentiments, it onl> shows a consciousness in those
•ho make and repeat them, that iId breach of confidence
ep sed, must In- att»-ndcd by its natural consequence, of
confidence withdrawn.
The writer in question also asserts that the “infl ience”
.(the Clark party, was an “adventitious mite cast into the
scale of his popularity, unimportant to his success, &c.”
Vhe-e man are so wholly regardless of the dictates of
■ rath asio put off such assertions, it is sometimes difficult
>o select the proper answer Before this campaign closes
w; shall no'doubt have it Said, nay, and sworn to—that
lr. Gilmer’s election was opposed by the whole Clark
j party! The “influence” cf that parly “unimportant to
■is success !!” vViU Mr. Gilmer’s-fnends—or h. Gil-
m:i hiai-cJf. as«ert this to have been their sentiments pre
vious to hi? election? If so they -Hire v took great pains to
fleet a mast “on important’’.object—and the exultation,
be eroding ami fl ‘PP'ng of wings wbuth took fdace among
them when the declaration wus made that the party in
question would support him, furnishes unequivocal evi
dence that this declaration -as regarded in a light very
different from that now r*p escnted y “Baldwin.” It
i- n principle of human nature, however, an i one that al
most msk<-' me a prosylile to the doctrine of total depravi
ty that when men are sensible of having sinned past for
giveness; of having acted with ingratitude towards th ir
pen. factors, they uniformly ieek to exculpate themselves
bv misrepresenting <md diminishing the nature and weight
oftiie obtig tion that presses upon them—and by imputing
designs cf which no evidence exists. But tins artific--i
now too stale and bact nied to avail. Public intelligence
is mo sharp sighted not to penetrate through a pretenc"
so flimsy—and the high mindrd of all parties will not fail
to award a j ist measure of reprobation to it.
A GEORGIAN.
fFOR THE FF.DERAL UNION.J
Mr FDtTOR—In your last paper, 1 hav^ read a commu
nication from “h little professor of religion,” on in- sub
ject of the “divinity of our Lord.” This is a subject that
1 never approach but with reverence; and this iv heighten
ed by the refaction that it is a point upon which many
great and good men have diltcred in opinion. Neverthe
less as your correspondent seems to suppose, the believers
in the essential unity of God to he “wilfully blmd,” I hope
bv the publication of this article, you will Irt him see a
small part of the evidence that may be adduced in support
of this doelrinc, “which some call heresy,” but which its
holders believe to be taught by Revelation.
1st In the language of yoor e ^respondent I nsserl,
that “if Jesus Christ” actually “was God, the writers of
the New T stament discover great liijudiciousuess in the
choice of their words, and adopted a very dangerous style.”
And also, that the Saviour habitually spoke of himself in
language calculated, nay intended to produce the very op
posite belief. The. Gospel was first preached to the Jews,
who, os a peop ! e, jealously maintained the doctrine of the
simple unity of God. It was their proud and distinguish
ing U-nct To have brought iIimti over to the belief of
the Trinity, would have required many explanations, and
repetitions ofth.it ducliine—it must have been frequent
ly, distinctly, and clearly, set forth to their minds; yet of
this the history of the early ministry afferds no traces.—
t here arose many controversies in that age, especially
with those Jews who had been converted to Christianity;
some of these are treated ofin the epistles. Yet it is very
observable, that am mg the questions which thus arose
and required explanation from the Apostles, there is no
record of any question or controversy respecting; tbe object
of worsnip. AiiJ yet if the new religion was adding two
new objects to that of the old, this would have been to a
Jew by far the most important, most interesting, and
most perplexing of all tbe peculiarities of the Gospel.—
No such doctrine could hav; been added to the ancient
faith of the Jews without occasioning some controversy
either with thus*- who received, or those who persecuted
the new faith. Yet no such controversy took place, neith
er is there the slightest appearance in the New Testa
ment, that any objection, difficulty, or doubt arose in any
quarter upon this ground- Is it not impossible, then,
that any such doctrine should have ueen taught?
In addition to this view of the question, our Lord him
self » xpresslv declares in 8th John 18th v.— It is writ
ten in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. I
am one, who bear witness of myself, and the father that
sent me, beareth witntss ol me.” This best ol all au-
hority also asserts. “This is life eternal that they might
know thee the oni.T true God, and Jesus Chrisi whom
‘ hou hast sent.” John 17th ch. .VI v. “Vly father is
greater tlun I,” John 14th ch. 28th r. “I aacfcnd unto
my tather and your father; and lt> mt Cod and your God ”
John 20ih ch. I7th v. “My doctrine is no?mine, but his
that sent me,” John 7lb ch. 16th and 17th vs. “The fa-
lh -r bath gioen to tbe son authority,” he. John dth ch.
2Gth and 27ib vs. “The eon can do nothing of himself,
but what he seeth the father do,” John 5th ch. 19th v.—
“To sit on my right hand and no at) left is mot mink to
give, but it shall begin q to them for whom it is prepared
of my father,” Matthew 20di ch. 23J v. “I can of mine
own self do nothing 1 ” John 5th ch. 30th v. These are a
few, a very small part of the express declarations of Jesus,
descriptive of the relation be bore to Iehovah. Is it
possible to reconcile thtm with the idea of fits being'the
Supreme Deity? I covet the “blindness” which yields be
lief lo these slatemenu of the blessed Saviour.
But what say the Apostles? “God anointed Jesus of
Nazareth with tbe holy ghost and with power,” Acts
tOtti ch. 3Stb v. “For there is one God,and one meaia-
tor between God and men, the man Chrisi Jesus,” Tim.
1st ch 25th v. “And tve have seen and do testify that
the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world, ”
lohn 1st ch. 4th and 14th vs. Christ is also represent
ed lo be “the image of the invisible God.” “thefirst born
of every creature.” “The beginning of the crcatioa of
God*’ “Christ was ordained of God to be the judge of
quick and dead,” Acts 10th ch. 42d v. “When all things
shall be subdued under him, then shall the son also him
self be subject unto him that put all thing* under him,
that God may be all in all!” Cor. 15th ch. nBtli v. These
ore a f w of the many passages wherein the sacred wri
ters describe the person *nd character of our Lord, tf
they intended to affirm that he was the son of God, and
conseq icntly inferior to his Father, they are indeed
“words ol troth and soberfiess.” If not, “the nurguage is
incautious and unwarrantable.” No one cau for a mo
ment suppose, these representations ever intended to de
scribe the Father of our Lord Je«us Christ.
In support of tbe Supreme Divinity of the son of God,
an argumcnl'is aflempUtd to be drawn from the feet of tbe
numerous miracles wrought by hfth—which, say thradvo
cates of that doctrine, required no less thin Almighty
power to peiform. Now it seems to me sufficient to as
sert, that unless the advancer of Ibis hypothesis will un
dertake to snow the precise amount of power neces-ary
to perform the miracles wrought by Jesus, & tint Abufe -
ty God could not impart it to him, no answer to it need b
sought for. God delegated to the Prophets of oln—to
Moses, to Aaron, to Elisha, to Joshua, power which was
alone original to deity. They performed miracles which
Almighty power only, could cxi cute. But it was because
God had given to them that power, in tbe same manner as
he afterwaras gave it to his son 'e. e us, ihougi it oid not
s permanently abide with them as with the latter, for he
was God’3 “well beloved son in whom he was well pleas
ed” These things manifest the presumption of saying
ivhat cannot be done by that omnipo en' Bring represented
by our Saviour as capable, “of these stones to raise up
chil ren unto Abraham ”
Many sine*rt minds have been bewildered by the com
mand of Scripture t “let all the Angels worship him,”
(Christ.) fiiis arises (rent not Ruflu-ionily attending to
ihe fuel that the term “worship” is often used hy the sa
cred writers in a restricted sense—as only meaning that
respectful mode of salutation rendered b> an inferior per-
conag. to his superior—and no-.i?w ya as signify ing tht
homa-e due from the creature to the Creator. This trut 1 .
is strikingly illustrated in Hie passage wher- it is stated
“and alltiie Congelation fell down and worshipped Cod
and Hi K ng” (David.) It would scarcely be tnferreu
front this that David va S God; or equal with him, ortba
he was so regarded by his peopfe. The miod at once per
ceives the difl' rent feelings which most have attended this
act of j Mnt “worship,” .iiul readily separates the deep
homage or “worship” rendered the Creatoi frim the ide
of that limited “worship” dir- cted to the King. So the in
dividual who receives Christ ag the Son ot Go t, the “medi
tor between God and men,” readily distinguishes between
the degree ol homage doe lo each—and perceives tlia)
whilst his lieori should be deep'y imbo d with love and re
verence for <h> son of God, th ■ Saviour of the world, yet
its highest ascriptions—its “worship” of Deity, are com
m.uideil to be directed lo the father alone, through .leso-
Christ, who says, “tiie hour cotneth an now is, when
the Lue worshippers shall worship tbc father.”

Chorus—Henry Clay’s come again, fee.
Muster voters, close your ranks,
Else you’ll suffer by bis pranks,
Following now the wisest plan/
Fill the stomach—win the man,
Canvass back and Woodcock fried,
Lord knows what other thing.' beside,
Cooks art dressing every day,
And serving up to Henry Ctay.
Chorus—Henry Clay?* conic again, Sic.
6n Henry Clay the doom was strrn,
From Washington they bid him turn,
Patronage aud high command,
They harshly wrested from his hand, *
Shielding us from dread and liarra,’*'
They sent him oflT to till his farm,
He’s “bock ngen” good folks beware,
Re claims tbe Presidential Chair.
Chorus.—Henry Clay’s come again
Henry Clay’s come again,
Spread the news from here to Maine,
Henry Clay’s come again.
* Doubtless he was permitted to retire on account of
Wfer, Pestilence, and Famine propensities.

Many other ‘cookeries’ too.

Tiioogh in prose tin y claim attention
Battles jingle not in rhyme!
Ask you, now, who .till be there,
All the young, the gay, the fair,
The blonde, the brunette—absent none—
All enjoying—“lot- of fun”—
Old and weak, and young and hearty,
Ad are on the Fishing parts.
•Wend you with the world io day,
Care discards Iris usual frown—
Smiles theirdimples sweet display—
Sorrow smo ithes hit wrinkles down.
Haste away—Festina 1 nti—

Should you wish a seat on dry land;
Rods are plenty on Die island,
Canoes are safe—’tis even betting,
You can’t contrive to get a wetting.—
