UNION MEETING.
From the Democrat.
Agreeable to previous notice the friends of the
Union assembled at the Court House in this town
on Thursday afternoon last, for the purpose of con
sidering the present alarming state of affairs, and
to consult on measures proper to be adopted in the
alarming crisis now at hand.
Although 'he notice of the meeting was address
ed exclusively to tiie friends of the Union and wtis
intended to afford them an opportunity for con
sultation among themselves; yet the Nollies, with
Col. Fannin and Dr. Clifton at their head, and a
little Colonel who lias more tongue than brains, at
their tail, collected their forces, together with the
tag-rag and boh-taii of the town, in order to pre
vent any thing like harmonious deliberation, and
if possible break up tiie meeting in a row. But the
friends of tiie Union assembled in great numbers,
the collection emhrac'og the most respectable citi
zens of the place of boili political parties, and they
went on to organize the meeting by calling Col. B.
Hepburn to the chair, and appointing Dr. E. I.

powers whicSi appertain to the constituted author
ities of the state and a divestiture of these of the
authority which the people in the legitimate exer
cise of their supremacy have confided to them,
would be subversive of the deliberate and sovereign
will of the people as expressed in the Constitution
of the state, anti-republican in its tendency, des
tructive of the fundamental principle of democratic
government, for “ the very idea of the power and
right of the people to establish a government pre
supposes tiie duty of every individual to obev the
established government,” revolutionary in its char
ter and would have a direct tendency, by bringing
the state government into disregard and impoten-
ey to prostrate the chief bulwark of the rights of the
people and of the sovereignty of the states and to
precipitate the states into a consolidated govern
ment. Ii the individuals who shall compose this
convention can thus set at naught the established
government, upon whom will their acts he obliga
tory or whose authority cun tiioy be regarded as
exercising?
Because tiie "'“vrr proposed Lobe conferred up
on said Convention is without limb-unrestrained
by any restriction whether of the Constitution or
of law, but above and beyond cither, not subject
to the adoption or rejection of the people and to
he exercised by those who, not returning to them
lor re-election, are not responsible to them and
might, under the impulse of passion or of factious
intolerance, he employed in the enactment of bills of
attainder, in the deportation or other more griev
ous punishment of the generous and confiding citi
zens of the state, or far other purposes however
despotic, or in other modes however tyrann'cal.
Because as the elections of delegates to said con
vention would not be according to the forms of the
constitution nor in obedience to, nor bv the au-
thoritv of the constituted authorities of the stnft
the power proposed would he an usurpation of th'* I Degraft’enreid secretary. A set of resolutions were
offered by Mr. Schley which were read and secon-
<-d, Maj. Camp offeied a set of resolutions by way
ofsiibstitute, and in a forcible and eloquent address
to the meeting, depicted the present happy am!
prosperous state of our country, the vast amount
of wretchedness and misery which nullification
would entail upon her, bringing in its train revolu
tion, civil wai and discord, and proved to the satis
faction of every candid mind, that the repeal of the
tariff’, or the redress of grievances, was not the ob
ject of'ihe disorganizes,but emphatically disunion
and revolution.
Maj. Fannin attempted to address the meeting,
and proposed as far as could he understood, the
reading of a set of resolutions which he held in his
hand. But the meeting refused to listen to him or
to hear his resolutions read. This was a meeting
they said, of the friends ofthe union, the nuliies had
not been invited, nor should they be heard at our
deliberations. They may hold meetings of their
own an J nullity as much as they please: but not a
word of nullification here* Hereupon a prodigious
uproar ensued. Some cried let him be heard, oth
ers said let him be nullified: some huzzaed for
state rights ami the union, ami some jumped on the
table and damned the tariff: dirks and pistols were
drawn, sticks were flourished, chairs and tables
rattled, the tag-rag and bob-tail screamed, and the
Nuliies roared; some scrambled for the door, some
cajied lbr adjournment, and the chairman shouted
order. But order was very tardy in appearing,
and for a while it seemed probable that nullification
would have been practically illustrated. But the
union men stood firm; they came, they said, to
pass tlu ii res ilutions and nullification oi no nullifi
cation—they should he passed!
And as the tumult subsided the calls for the
question prevailed; and Maj. Camp having with
drawn his resolutions, it was decided by the Chair
ot. he hv £c the people”—the body poli- | that those ol INI r. Schley were in order.

were accordingly taken up; hut while the pream
ble was reading the runners oi the nuliies were out
collecting recruits. Having purged the grogeries
and bve-places, a considerable addition was r.ade
to their li>rce. The preamble however, was sus
tained. But on offering the first resolution, which
speaks of a strict adherence to the constitution, the
nuliies rallied, and what with the assistance of
school hoys ana indian allies, they voted it down!
But ii was not easy to keep such an heterogeneous
croud together formally minutes, or induce them
to give all the support to ihe nullifiers that they
required. They succeeded however, in voting
down the “ constitution,” “ our present form of
government,” “ Gen. Jackson,” and the resolution
expressing our objections to the tariff! Thus have
the nullifiers unmasked themselves; they have
shown themselves to be the enemies of our consti
tution, the enemies of Ge*n. Jackson, and the advo
cates ofthe tariff’! this makes good what we have
all alongsaid of them; they do not wish the tariff
repealed, they wish it retained in order iliat. they
mav have something to clamor about. Those res
olutions marked thus (*) were voted down by the
nullifiers. Before the reading ofthe resolutions in

in behalf of the good people of ihe State”—an as
sumption of the exorcise of power in behalf of

Resoleed, That after the evidence furnished by
the late and present Congress of a returning sense
of Justice and of a disposition to conciliate the
south by the passage of acts which ameliorate the
protective system and moreover diminish and se
ver the interests by which tliat system has been
hitherto sustained, and with an Executive Magis
trate, a gallant achiever and the most illustrious
defender of our liberties, who is faithful to tiie Con

holds that if is the duty of Government to con
fine itself to “ equal protection and equal benefi’s”
and tliat which administers “ is not to be maintain

which have been thus far successful seem to this
meeting, to he. at this time, necessary, and especi
ally when the re-adjustment under the recent cen
sus, of the representation ofthe people in Congress
promises to bring an accession ofthe advocates ol
tree trade into that body.
Resolved, nevertheless. That if the general pre
valence of a contrary opinion should render it pro
per for us to elect delegates to a State Convention,
such delegates shall have authority only to deliber
ate on, devise and recommend the best means of
relieving the State from the oppressions of the Tariff*.
Resolved, That we entertain no doubt of the
purity ofthe motives oi the patriotic intentions bv
which anv and all of our delegation were influen
ced in the course pursued by them, during the re
cent session ol’Congress, and have seen, with re
gret, the hasty and unfounded suspicions, which
have been objected against our Senator and Rep
resentative, Messrs. Forsvth and Wayne. That
we approve of the efforts made by these gentlemen
so to reduce and modify the Tariff Act oi 1823 as
to render it less oppressive to this State and re
gard their course in relation to the passage of
il.e Ac*, of 1S32, as witnessing for them their firm
resolution by judicious and efficient opposition
through a gradual reduction and by constitutional
and nleaceful means to accommodate the Tariff* of
duties to a just revenue standard and as furnishing
unequivocal evidence of iheir fixed ©pinion, that
ti e protective system should not be recognized as
the settled policy of the country*
Reonlvrd, That we consider the doctrine of Nul
lification, a political heresy, impracticable as a
peaceable remedy for our grievances, incompati
ble with the spirit of our Constitution, andxles'ruc-
ive ofthe peace and welfare of our country.

correct, that a State is to judge of the con fitution-
ality of an act ofCorigress, and to de&lare .* Uncon
stitutional, and Tender it inoperative—out K r m of
government is a seif-evident absurdity, end our
constitution a mere dead letter.
Resolved, That we are opposed to the'uoctrine
of nullification, because we believe it to be destiue-.
five to the peace and prosperity of our country,
and as tiie present crisis requires us to speak a
plain language, we anv resolve, that if the advo
cates for that doctrine, arm themselves tc enforce
it, ive w:!l arm ourselves to resist it—nor will we
vote for any Candidate lbr office in the gift of the
people, who advocates the doctrine of JVullijica-
licn.
Resolved, Tliat we highly anprove of General
Jackson’s letter to the Union party of South Car
olina, atiu will hold ourselves in readiness to march
against any and every external and internal ene
my oi tiffs republic, to preserve inviolate the con
stitution, constitutional law-, the Union of these
States, each and every department of government,
and the mild, and sacred institutions of our coun
try, to which end we pledge our lives, our property,
and our sacred Honor.
* Resolved, That we are opposed to anv TarifFofi
protection, and that although we believe the Tar
iff law recently enacted, to he a decided ameliora
tion of the system—yet we believe it, to be une
qual in its operation; and therefore unjust and
inconsistent with the spirit of the constitution.
Resolved, That, we will employ all legal and
constitutional means to free ourselves and our coun
try, from the anticipated evils of the protecting
Tariff*, but, that we think they have been greatly
exaggerated by designing politicians and tliat. the
remedy proposed, called nullification, is more tiati-
gerousand destructive to the government and peo
ple, than the Tariff.
Resolved, That we highly approve of the high-
minded and independent course pursued hv our
distinguished senator and Representative in Con
gress, the Honorable John Forsyth, and James
M. \V ayne in voting for a reduction of the Tariff’
duties, thereby relieving the people of a heavy pub
lic burthen, and in part accomplishing the object
for which the South has been so long contending
—and that we will use all honorable means in our
power, to promote theirre-eleetion—the Oglethorpe
and Macon meeting to the contrary notwithstand
ing.
Resolved, That wc highly approve of the bold
and determined stand taken bv the citizens of Rich
mond and Hall counties, against the doctrine of
Nullification, and that we coincide with them in
the sentiments expressed at their Union meetings.
Resolved, That we are highly pleased with the
course pursued and sentiments advanced at differ
ent times in the writings and speeches of the dis
tinguished citizen of Augusta,—Col. William Cum-
miqg, and that he retains our entire confidence, in
his patriotism, and zeal.
Resolved, Tliat we respectfully recommend to
our fellow citizens generally, who coincide with us
in opinion, promptly to adopt measures correspon
ding with our own, in the*r respective counties,-
whether they find themselves in the minority or ma
jority.

country; in order to correct, and do away the er
roneous impressions that some designing, or mis
guided politicians are endeavoring to make upon
the honest and unsuspecting people, not only in this
comity, but. throughout the state of Georgia, and
some of our sister states,—and in order to do away
the excitement unnecessarily produced by them
upon the subject of the Tariff; by giving dinners
and calling meetings in'different partsof this State,
as well as some of our sister States, in order to got
one particular set of politicians together, who call
themselves JVuUifiers, so as to disseminate the doc
trine of nullification through the country, and
thereby disturb the peace and happiness of this our
happy country, anil involve us in anarchy, civil
war and discord.—We have therefore assembled,
in order, to express our feelings of attachment to
the Union of these States, and our utter detestation
oft hat disorganising and dangerous doctrine cal
led Nullification—for although we are decidedly
opposed to a Protecting Tariff', and consequently
opposed not only to the Tariff ot 1828, hut to the
present Tariff recently enacted, and as lovers ot
our Country and the Union of these States, will ex
ert all legal and constitutional means, to nboiisti
the protecting system entirely, and drive tlmt
scottnge from our land; hut at the same time we be
lieve that the. Tariff law recently enacted, to be a
decided amelioration of the system, and as such we
deem it highly improper, and altogether as a politi
cal manceuvre to endeavor to excite the people un-
nessarilv, as some designing or misguided politi
cians are endeavoring to do, upon the subject of
the present Tariff, and to make them believe that
the crisis has arrived, when a separation of this
happy Union, is preferable to bearing the grievan
ces imposed on tis, by that 'I'c.riff—
# Resolved, Tliat a strict adherence to the Cou-
s> Million, and the Union of these States, is the only
palladium of our safety as a nation.
* Resolved, That our present form of govern
ment is the best that can be adopted, that (lie doc
trine of nullification tends to a dissolution of the
same, and that a right to dissolve this Union is not
delegated by the Constitution, and is inconsistent
with our form of government, that if there be such
a right it isonlv the righted revolut'on.

s very fond. It i; more than probable, he is conducted

PRESENTMENTS
Of fFa-tan Superior ttuurt, .hrzUsl Term, 1832.
W E thb Griuul. Jurors «oleeted^*nd-t»wyiir ftr the
county of- Walton, feel proiul ui saying that we
have no presentments of u special or inunoriit character,
to submit, _ - ; .
In kicking to our county matters; ti e first thing of c.
general character, which attracts pur auciuiw.n, is. di
lapidated and decayed stale of our county .Tad, it being
unsafe for the keeping of criminals,ai;d wholly unfit for
a prison. We find the funds or oitr county to be amp y
sufficient to have a respectable jail erected, as the avail
able funds anti resbuices of the county, amount to be
tween 25 and 26 hundred dollars; wc would therefore
recommend the Inferior Court to have one built as early
as practicable, and to be situated on a lot v hidi this Li
lly are informed has Ken set apart for that object, re
mote from tlic public square.
We, notice with regret the remi-eucos cf ihe propc r
authorities in not strictly enforcing ibe road laws, and ir
lias been so frequently a subjt:ct matter of prestntn-enf.
that it creates no terrors on the vii latQr.--, and teen-,
rather to increase its neglect; we have no oinissfi ns i f
this duly before usiii a lahgibie shape ; and while on
iins subject we feed that we do not transcend our duties
and privileges in recommeudri-g and urging uj on oflr
Senator ana Representatives in ihe next Legislature to
use their best exertions in having some proportion ofthe
la'asr of the public hands appiu-u to theimmediate bene-
fit. of our county as we bate been in tiffs particular,
v. Lolly neglecieu ; we would also respectfully call the
attention of the members from the up-country of Geor
gia to the propriety and practicability of uniting tl.
gold region with tiie seaboard by opening and construc
ting a central road bettceni the Oconee and Ocmulgcc l i
vers—Y.'e have freely and futiy discussed the subject <, i
re-establishing tiie penitentiary system, w iiji the lumii -
ot; and able charge of the Judge upon th.*-: subject, we
concur unanimously in recommending its re-adoption,
i he reasons are soobvisus and the feelings and sentiments
of the jieople hare undergone such a change (incur
-pinion.) i pen this subject, that comment or argument
is unnecessary.
We are unanimously ia f.vor of a reduction of the
members of our Legislature—we w ould respectfully re
commend the citizens of our county to elect delegates to
the contemplated Conventi* n < n the second Monday in
February next—The object of reducing the members is
so desirable, that we should adopt any and all measures
w hich could effect it, or pave tire way. C'n the all ab
sorbing and important question, the Tariff, which is
agitating the public mind, and from the various mc-t’-
ii.'gs in the different counties in the Slate, it tq pears that
o Convention is eou'emp-ated to Le held it: Milledgevilh
on the. second Monday of November next, and in order
that Walton may not be unrepresented, we would res
pectfully suggest to the citizens of the county the pro
priety ofelcctingdelegates to attend said Convention.
We cannot feel ourselves entirely acquitted lrt m tlm
discharge ofthe dgties assigned us, nor to have exercised
ah *» e privileges to which wc arc entitled, without ex
pressing- the deepest regret, at the alarming ant! danger
ous increase of divorcements in cur Sia.e.
In parting with his honor.Judge Dougherty, we tender
him oar best respects anu w ff hes and cur undivided ap
probation and praise for his impartial ar.d prompt ad
ministration of justice. We also tender our thanks lo
Col. Ligc-n the Solicitor pro ?em. for his politeness to our
body during the term. We request these presentments
bo published in the newspapers in Millt-dgeville.
