Vie have often heard of great dictionary men, i if r. e are to judge from the specimen bod’ore in the sublime Messenger of the 20th Scp- el-er, we should certainly conclude that the •torial quill-driver of that week, had not only ,r ••'•td Eaillie, Nayres, Entick, Kendrick, F: •di-.s Ain; worth, Walker, Johnson, the ► folios’ of Webster, & Crabbse’s Synonimes [-but that ho had got them upside down—and p.ng that the tremendous dose of undigested fd- had produced an “ incapacity to discern,'' had, by way of expurgation and clarifyca- h of ids ideas, guzzled down a volume or two Plutarch and Shakespeare, and oih d the pas- kce witli a volume of Bacon—which operated furiously, and produced such a prostration of ! verbose faculties, that it became absolutely -"ss.--.ry to devour Col. Gumming with a few Pfsoi \ns Oglethorpe, by way of giving tone ; ’ faculties—and to eat vp Genl, Glascock. n ™' epaulettes, cocked hat, war horse and all, v n.yof giving a little moral courage, and an I'c-i military pomp, to his tremendous attack »n the solid columns of^the Federal Union— *> finding the dangerous symptoms of the dis- fiad somewhat abated by this process, in | r kr to carry off a few torturing remains of 110118 personalities, he had called in I)r. who administered to him—>cylla and ,nn jMis at a cl.#e. Nothing then was necr.ssa- , ^'be done, to carry ofT the bad taste, but to the tv,-0 Editors of the Federal Union as a ■ 't morceJ under his tongue, by protesting, ‘■ i the peevishness usual t - convalescents, Mrt he never would poison the chalice of so- [ intercourse with the gall of political animosi words, sic i as charhtmry whimsical Hies, dun >nr.idit.de facto, subriquvl, and the like. But in in making tire attempt, we began at the very ti tle page of Webster’s new Dictionary, and “ sarched a long sorter scatterin-like," till we found, in the preface, this cheering intelligence —“ About sixteen thousand words, and between thirty ana. i orty thousand definitions are contain ed in this dictionary, which are not to be -fouvl in any similar work in the author’s knowledge.” (See his Dictionary, Preface, page x) “ Thinks we to ourselves,” now we’ve “ got the right pig by tne tail —and these ignorant Union fellows shall be as.‘cute as Mr. Editor of the Messen ger. We flew with great avidity along the alphabetical arrangement, determined, if possi ble, that so much lamin' should not bo lost upon the readers of our paper-—for we like to let them understand what we write and publish. But it was all in vain. 'Neither the “ sixteen thousand" new words, nor the “ thirty or forty thousand new difinitions gave any account of some of the Messenger’s “ jaw-breakers." So concluding, that as so great a Dictionary-maker as Mr. Webster, who had *»o doubt read all the English “ dixnaries clear ...roughbesides the New Y ork pnnit*i UllJ ^Vebster’s and Dill worth’s spelling books from A to izzard, and could not make it out, we might as well give it up. So with deep mortification andTeluctance, we are com pelled to leave our plain-fashioned readers, that don’t pretend to know any other language but good plain English, in the melancholy predica ment of the Messenger itself, “ incapable to discern" this profound production. A few word more—the Messenger charges us with “ lubricating Judge Lamar”—“ for ulterior effect and tiiat pernicious.”—Mercy, on us !! Now we do find this word, lubricate, in V\ ebster’s dictionary—It means-—to make slip- pery. AVe suppose therefore, that the Messen ger means, we intend to grease the judge all over, so that if the Editor should come upon us, while we are in the act of stealing him, we can slip him, smooth and slick, into our pockets, and run oil ! ! The fact is, we have never seen just such a man, as this Editor. If we .censure Clayton, Berrien and Jones, we incur his “ me a- j sureless contemptif we praise or “ fahri- \ rate" Judge he abruptitiously (as Ned ] Bucket saysj charges us with the self aggran- j diziito propensities and concealed monarchism ! of a splendid political corruptionist”—(How the 1 steel jaws of our Perryan pen groan under these ! big words !) Pray, now, Mr. Editor, shan’t 1 we say one word, good or bad, about any of yoar'folks ?—well, then, may we be permitted to say a word in favor of Lumpkin, or censure Newnan? Can you cite us to a single instance in which you have been independent enough to do justice to a political opponent, or cast merited censure upon a political adherent, whether he is an Adams man ora nullijier 1 But lest we should grow grave in playing with our political baby, we give him up ids rattle, and leave him to amuse himself, while we ate ness. id to our busi- ff.i/ai l!i« M Mes If the intrusive medriier -and busy lief maker of a neighbourhood, is justly viewed, as an' object of alarm ami detestation, with what tenfold reprobation at.d abhorrence, should they be visit- • ■ i - ■ . •’ ed, who ilenve at once, their income and gratifica tion from exciting suspicion, and ill will and pro moting discord and mutual animosities, among a • * r*v “ 7 * © whole people?

When rougr.es are abroad on fatigue duty, the prudent man looks to liis doors and-window3.-— Wuen the fox jirowls, the good housewife, di rects a double watch on her poultry yard* and when the retainers oi a state selling politician are remarkably, on the qui vive, the heirest friend of Georgia, i's challenged to double vigilance, lest some scheme, of tiiat kind or other mischief, should be in contemplation. By rumours from Milledgeville and the intima tions dt the Anti-Southern paper, under that per son’s direction, it would seem, that attempts have been and are making to bring the “divide and conquer” system, to bear on the ranks of the pat riots, who foot to foot—shoulder to shoulder, have so long, so nobly fought the battles of the people and breasted the tide of Federal cotruption, which ibat man and Lis abettors, have been rolling over ihe land. From tlie inordinate crowing and wine clapping of the intiiguery connected with the Federal Union some ol their readers, may have been betrayed into the opinion that at tiie recent redress meeting in Miiledgeviile, the consolidation and .Tariff party, in Baldwin, had achieved an im portant triumph :*no statement, however, could be more delusive than tiiat loading to such conclusion,. Tiie Preamble and reHeiinns drafted and submit ted by the Honorable L, Q. C. Lamar and enter tained bv the meeting, are bt.orc t!.c puuiic and speak lor themselves. We asserted, tiiat the Mil- Ii-t)ctoville resolutions, are not essentially variant, from those adopted by our fellow-citizens at Athens. On a reconsideration of the premises, we find iit- »le to modify our d< Cision. ihe former is equally decided a r - the latter in denouncing the injustice, \'ue oppression, the unconstitutionality ol a protec tive Tank. Equally unequivocal in the avowal, that its laic modification cannot, even on the ground of self-respect, be accepted an an equivalent lor our violated rights—assuredly ibis does not, cannot mean, that if our next appeal to Congress for a re vision of the obnoxious law rmd a guarantee a- gainst future infractions of the n&tional compact, be unavailing^ have been, all its predecessors, that Georgia is in humble submission to Igio her neck to the yoke, forever—or like the patient ass totter on, under tier burdens, munching the bitter pittance, the policy, rather than pity of li^r ritn- trrs. still allows or like the wliipt spaniel, do noth ing butichine. over her wrongs, her shnme and her dissolution. Assuredly this could not have ken tiie mind of tiie chivalrous and high hi arted Geor gian, who drafted the resolutions—of one, among The mOsf cherished hopes of his country--of one, her patriots delight to honor. But should our next demand liar redress, invested as it will be, with ail that can add force and solenmity to the voictyf a sovereign people, l»e answered as usual as the voice of history, the laws of human nature, and twelve years experience, assures us it will, be a refusal, oi a hum bug■ 11 hat then / why then, w£ afledire, the Milledgeville proceedings conduct to aii identical issue, with the Athenian. And our lives on it, in such event, L. Q. C. Lamar, will bo found among the foremost, pressing forward to re- dtess the wrongs, vindicate the rights and dash hack dishonor from Georgia, the land of Ins birth, the object of his pride and ol his nflfctions.— We appeal to the reader of the Federal Union, whether that paper, has not constantly, inculcated opinions in ultra opposition to Ihe four conclusions above specified. Whether in their paragraphs on the Tariff subject, that were not plainly gudgeon baits,thev were not more its apologists iban oppo nents. Whether t.tev are or not hunting down ihe reputations of the gentlemen, generously sac- ficing their ease, their inteiests, in the cause of Georgia and Southern rights ? Whether they are not, endeavoring to persuade the people ot i Slate, that Troup, Berrien, Clayton, and don< ind those acting with them in advancing trie same glorious cause, are a set of reckless, selfish ns P l " Tils, j-Mpar h emu- lilt pi-ace, watid v and. ittsliUi- ti ms oi 1hi‘H- country, in hopes of obtaining, in the resulting scramble, some advancement of their ambition and interest ?—and that the State selling politician—nis Editors—and the little,snug leather n-vt faction, with which they are in immediate cminextion are the only real Simon Pures in poli ties and the only men competent and trust worthy to direct—to save Georgia—the Union—and the constitution, in the present appalling crisis. \Y hat warrant, the Tariff and Consolidation Editors find in tiie Baldwin proceedings, to justify, the “ well done" “ victory, victory,” they have been shouting on iLe occasion, we profess incapacity to discern. That they should, be profuse in their rejoicings at the success of ineir Federal allies in Augusta—ot the Tariffiies in Hj'I, where their brother in the faith, their ex-judge Underwood, the avowed Fed eralist, sworn enemy and habitual calumniator of Andrew Jackson, made so conspicuous a display; that the Bams horn meeting in Twiggs and the federal nonsense and vulgar vituperation of-their brother M isesFort, another of their ex-judges, should elicit their fondest eulogy; and that they should pour out their glorvings, over the pompous fuddle nnd mystified whimsicalities of the Savannah proceedings, is ail in character and matter of course. But that they should lubricate*Judge Lamar and his resolutions with their adulations, is another affair—It is intended Cor present and ulterior effect and that pernicious 11 is treacherous to him and deceptive to the country—What ! these men pane gyrize Judge Lamar, a man, whose whole political life, creed, associations and attachments, are in as abrupt and extreme contrast to theirs, as light, is to darkness—as the pure democracy and single hearted philanthropy of the illustrious Jefferson, to the self-aggrandizing propensities and concealed monarchism of that splendid corruptionist Alexan der Hamilton—as the Aristidean justice andt&o- man patriotism ot' our beloved and venerated Pre sident, compared with the moral depravity, noliti- cal charlatanry, tLe country sacrificing ambition and'blackleg trickery, of bis war, pestilence and famine, competitor;—or, as the principles and views urged in the Federal Union, compared with those embraced in tjp? preamble and resolutions of Judge Lamar—views and principles, that these' inodes men and their accomplices, have so often stigmatized as treason, and the honored masters in our political I3nei, from whom he imbibed them as traitors and objects of disgust and detestation ; or-finally as the former William Gumming, with the hone; able soubriquet of Baldwin, contrasted with the present Tommy Glasscock. How the deuce, did the Colonel, get arranged into that mess? He used to be the purest in his associa tions ; but he will find, that politics, like misery, makes a man acquainted with strange companions. That the doctrines and intentions of the Editors so oft referred to. are riot here mis-stated, or mis represented, we have the evidence of our senses. If words cannot, like the Constitution be constru ed, to signify, whatever the interested expounder pleases. Wo heard a harangue from each of these per sonages on ihe great question at issue and aver most solemnly, that had we been ignorant of, and uninterested in its merits exc°pt from their plea dings we should, from the whole drift of their state ments and argumentation, have set them down, as the retained attornies, oft he Northern aristoc racy and the abandoned Congressional majority bv whom Ihe 'usurpations of that aristocracy are sustained and perpetuated. In irujh, their ad dresses were labored apologies fir the Tariff and Taiifiites and to some extent attempted vinTica- tions.—Struggles, by every art to impede the on ly means now possible, the only means now affor ding even a hope, fur restoring the Constitution, preserving our liberties* or relieving the South from the cruel.ina- burdens and damning degrada tion accumulated on her by ihe American «y«uini and its abettors,—among tlie-most inveterate and pernicious of whom, the proprietors and editors of the Fedrral Union arc entitled to rank. One of them at the redress meeting in Macon had the temerity in tiie face of bis suffering and insulted lellow-citizens to insist on its constitu tionality and while so doing Sported his ever me morable discovery that, the protective Tariffis not an infraction of jflie Constitution, but merely a fraud upon that compact. After this, what is 6e- yond tht cffiirn; of the human mind? Compared with this, in the w ide range ofits practical utility, the modern applications of steam dwindle iuto in significance. Oh what honor it reflects on the ill-' (exigence or the principles of tiie discoverer.—The dastardly mode, of revenging himself on Messrs. Berrien, Clayton, and Jones, resorted to by this peison, has, we rejoice, for the credit ofhuroan na ture, incurred ihe measureless contempt of' every one, mm g e nnrty nick names, who yet retains a single spat k of honorable or manly feeling. We witnessed him quailing cowering and dumbfound ed under the signal detection and discomfiture jn- fiicted oil his anti-constitutional, anti-southern so phistry, tho’ without a trace of persona* ac rnony, by these gentlemen. From tiiat moment he has been dogging their reputation in a manner, tiiat .forcibly recalls the spectacle of an enraged & en venomed foist, yelping, snarling and snapping at the heels of a noble animal of its own sjiecies &. that had just provoked the cur, by an evidence of eontemp 1 almost peculiarly canine. Tl-V the op eration was once performed in fine style by a biped on Alderman Bin ns. of Jackson hating riotorie- tv. We had tiie misfortune to listen to the other ed itor, in tiie Convention question at Mafion. He had then the exclusive honor of sustaining Moses Fort arid his resolutions. K:s manner as usual was marked by apparent candor, calmness and mo dern* ion. But truth chmpeHs the averment, that in his exposition, arguments, the points he made, the views he presented of his opponent’s opinions and the means employed lo put them down and impress hjs own lie resorted to the Jesuitical cavil ling, hole-picking, truth obscuring vex-question, special pleading which deforms every thing on puli- tics, from his lips, since in evil hour, he descen ded to be a partisan gladiator—and “ pave' to a clique, what was meant for mankind.” The rev erence we cherish for Bonn’s nature, induces a hope that-Capt. J. A. Cuthbcrt’s call from labor to re- freshmen*, was not made to favor preparations for (lie Jericho scene lhat ensued, that he was not con senting to, nor cognisant of it. Tin- e'earest and justest conception, however of the ultra federalism', ultra submission and ultra con solidation of Mr. Cuthbert’s views and doctrines maybe derived from the position assumed by him when enforcing the crime, danger and absurdity of disregarding or resisting a law of Congress tt.o' unconstitutional; viz. that each State in tiie Union stood in a similar relation, and owed the same obe dience to every law of Congress, as the counties of a State are hound to yield to the laws of their qwn Legiflature. This is indeed consolidation in all its horrors Sodeformitv, state ingulpbing, liberty extinguishing consolidation. But it is the State towards which ou*.instilutiers are rapidly verging and with an impetus perhaps irresistable. Thus, “ incidit in scvllam, dqm, vult vitareCharybdim.”- Thesearein solemn verity,, principles that once admitted, will in a few short years clothe the n a- joritv in Congress virtually irresponsible and almost de defacto, self appoint* d as (hey now are with jiowers assimilated to those of the tremendous State Council offortner Venice, equally formidable and overawing to an honest administration and ter rible to the people. Of the disposition to exercise such newer and the giant strides they have made towards its possession,-the proceedings of the ma jority dtiring that session atuird ample and porten tous evidence. We were minded to have gone more at large into the gorgon subject, but neithei me or space are at this moment propitious, and we must for the present deny ourselves. If ill nature suggests, that we have indulged it- i,becoming asperity marking ill will or personal hostility towards the persons whose_ conduct as public men we have so frankly canvassed, we rc- p-J-inUi j>U**»r* . d-d V'« * ♦* . . V l lice t them exclusively as political fartizans—* -were this toe place to sjx-ak of them as private- in-* dividuals we should wrong our own feelings were they mentioned otherwise than in terms of kind ness and commendation. We never have—never will poison the Chalice of sqcial intercourse With the gall of political animosity. We never shall Carry the feelings of the u i ena. within the pale, sacred to the charities and courieeit-s of life. FOR THE FEDERAL UNION. Sundry misrepresentations having already gain ed currency, with regard to the meeting of the citizens of Twiggs county, held at the court house on Tuesday the 4:h ult. convened pursuant to a nptice previously published, to take into considera tion the evils ofthe Tarifi, &.c. a citizen, injustice t«> the character of the People comprising the meeting, and to himself, as an individual member thereof, begs leave to submit to the public a state ment of the facts, as they occured. In order that the public rua v compare ihe reports with the feels, the truth of which, in the greater part, it is believ ed, can be established bv hundreds then present. About eleven o’clock, while the court was in session, Cd. Deik addressed the court, upon the the subject oftlie proposed meeting; the business of court was suspended—Judge W arren before he liad left the bench, as Judge, wtts called to the chair, by persons then present, and William Young nom inated as Se'crelury. No proclamation to tiie peo ple was made, previous to the meeting being or ganized and very lew were present at" its com mencement. Major Miller then addressed the meeting nnd offered sundry resolutions, for the sanction of the meeting; the purport of which, in the main, was the adoption of the resolutions passed by a similar meeting held at Athens, on day of August iast. Col. Beall ol* Macon. then addressed the meeting in an animated and § "IHS lar*»e and airy establishment is now thorough ly repaired, besides a very neat private house and lot Rejoining the smr.e, 'veil calculated to accommodate worn fifteen to twenty persons.

LOOK AT THIS! zealous speech of some length, in favor of the reso lutions ; the question was then proposed upon the accepting the resolutions. M. Fort then offered the subjoined preamble and resolutions, as a sub stitute—John A. Cuthbert Esq. -then addressed tiie meeting, in a speech which was received with marked applause, in opposition to the principles contained in the Athens resolutions. Mr. Rock well, in support of Maj. Miller's resolutions, in a speech which might have been conakU-.red eloquent in a better cause, then addressed the meeting.— It had been previously and generally understood, that Mr. Rockwell’s speech would be the last; many had retired front the house, fatigued with the length of Life discussion: by consent of the chairman, the people were to be informed by the sound of a horn, of the time the vote was to be taken—the horn was at this time sounded, and the people reassembled, amidst the confusion conse quent on the reassembly. John H. Howard’s speech was tailed for by two or three persons in the house; lie ascended to the Judge’s desk for t lye purpose ; but it was objected to, for tiiat the assembly expected the vote at the conclusion of Mr. Rockwells speech. Alter some altercation, Mr. Howard was suffered to proceed; but by sorae mistake, the young man who ivas in possession of the horn Bounded it in the midst of Mr. Howard’s address; this caused some momentary confusion ; but order being restored, Mr. Howard concluded his address. The question on receiving the sub stituted resolutions was therefore put by the Chair, a division was then called for by Col. Solomon— and it was then proposed, that the advocates of the substituted resolutions should go out of the house by the right door, and those opposed, at the left. This was announced by the Chair—it was instantly discovered that an overwhelming majority (none present could mistake the fact) pas sed out at tiie right door ; the opposers of the substitute continued in the room. Col. Solomon, withCapi. B. Smith at this time proposed to the Chair to hdv? counters; timt th, vatA. rniglit bet as certained— 1 This was not done, and the Chairman adjourned the meeting, without the reassembling of the people, or using any other means to ascer tain the vole upon the resojutions. In conse quence of the course pursued by the Ciiair, the people, to the number of one hundred and eighty (and upwards) came forward, subscribed to the resolutions, or caused their names to be placed on them. The foregoing- statement, it is believed, (without any commentary) is amply sufficient to convince any unprejudiced mind,cl the character of the meeting, nnj that t^e substituted resolutions were accepted and approved bv the meeting. A CITIZEN OF TWIGGS. TWIGGS MEETING. The citizens of Twiggs county, believing tiie present, a crisis in the affairs of national Govern ment and civil liberty, and believing also that upon the stability and fixedness of the political institu tions of the United States depend the great cause of ihe right of self government—not only in these States, but throughout the world, and believing as they do, the proceedings and opinions of sundry citizens (of a sister State) of eminent talents and high acquirements, as well assume of eminent and talent in their own State, as highly endangering the peace and tranquility of the people, and eminently hazardous to the cause of Republican principles, and also witnessing the intemperate zeal with which the missionaries of Nullification and secession tra verse the country openly, and without disguiso, arraigning the government of the United States, for tyranny, corruption and inefficiency, with the powers of the orator, and sublcty of the sophist, creating alarm and distrust among a hitherto pros perous and happy people, and with an untiring per severance, seeking proselytes to the ruinous doc trines of Nullification and secession ; they foe! it their duty as citizens devoted to the cause of their country and its prosperity, to express their opin ion on this a!! important subject. Therefore, be it resolved, That the Constitution and Constitutional laws of these United States, are of binding force pn the citizens, of the several Slates, and as such, should be esteemed and respec ted. Besolved, That we disapprove of a Tariff for protection, on to any greater extent than the exi gency of government absolutely requires—where fore, ne recommend to our members to the next Congress, to use nil constitutional means in their power, to have the Tariff placed upon that footing. Resolved, That we do not consider nullification or secession bv any means a proper remedy for the evils of the Tariff, but. on the contrary, fraught with all evils consequent on civil discord and san guinary revolution. Resolved, Thai we do not approve of a conven tion, as proposed to he held in Milledgeville, in November next, because it necessarily presupposes a state of things requiring either nullification or secession, because there is no means by which the people can be fairly represented in such convention, ane because we believe the Legislature fully com petent to all that can by us be constitutionally done i'ii the st'biec*. * ' - nit.. i i a r-..,iitH- ,u-,4>n : i i t 'a; even i:« ike 27U.

JAMES McGINNIS, Sen’r. Oct 4 13—3t PROPOSALS. FOR FURLISfltXC A WEEKLY PAPER IN TIIE CITT OF AU GUSTA, GEO. TO RF. CAI.LEO TIIE NORTH-AMERICAN GALETTE. The subscriber proposes to publish a weekly news pa per in Augusta, to be tailed The North-/; mf.ricaN Gazette ; and as it will be his endeavor to matte it use ful to tij£ public, he will venture to hope for such a share of[>atronage as to insure to himself a reasonable renntn- oration for his labors, Winic so many papers arc pub lished hi Augusta, and some of litem so ably edited, it might be thought perl aps That an editorial paper Was scarcely necessary. But it is believed, that even with ail the papers new published luxe, and even wiilftfce daily papers which, front notices given, are contemplated that still a weekly paper may be so conducted, as to lie- come a very acceptable periodical, both to those who take, and to many who do not take tho othor publications.— How far it may be in the power of th* publisher ofTiiF. Nortii-American* Gazette to in'ike it generally ac ceptable, can only 1fo known after the experiment has been made.—He can however, in advance -of the experi ment, vcmuielociignpe that no efforts of his shall be wanting to render his paper generally useful. It wiil contain an account of the general occurrences of the dav —will present to its readers all such foreign and domes tic intelligence as may be supposed to be of an inlcres- lingor important character—such moral and religious information as may be appropriate to such a publication, and such miscellaneous or policical rommunicatit ns, as shall, in the Editor’s judgment, be calculated to benefit his fellow-men—and it will be his endeavor to have tho pages of fl-e Gazette diversified with sileli occasional se lections, or original communications, as mav bee’eerrej worthy the attentions of such female readers, r.s may be willing to patioriizc-the undertaking. As to the political complexion of the paper, it will be necessary to say but little, as it is not to be exclusively a I>olitical publication—but as for ns political subjects find place in it, that course only will be pursued, which in the. wtuoc u»ii j win MiilUil in Lilx* honest jndgnicnt of the publisher will Ire b-*st calculated to prolnote the substantial good of his fellow-men. In a country like ours, the people nil have the same rights and the. same interests- to advance these interests and to sustain these lights, wiil be the endeavor of the publisher of The North-American* Gazf.tte, according to the best of his ability—and with tht in, tiiat happy Union of tbeUnitec^States,pn w hich their preservation must in his view inevitably depend. To tiie contests of mere party scribblers, he enn premise no countenance. To c > good,will be the Editor’s endeavor—ifin this be fails, it shall in no case be a voluntary failure. BENJAMIN BRANTLY.
