» LrJlrr from Ex-Lov« Lumpkin* At Home, Athens, Dec. 14,1860. To the Hi-’. .1 slrtry Hull, Col. M. C M. Hammond, II. S. Taylor, and many others : G-ntlemen :—In reply to your note of yester day, allow me to gay that since my retirement from public life in 1813, I have on but one occa sion taken any active part, in the politics of the country, anil that was on the compromise measures of 18V). I was then in a minority in my State, as well as the whole Union. 1 yielded without complaint, and have not participated in any polit ical strife since. Hut I have read much, and care fully watched the progress of public events, down to the present catastrophe, of the election of a Itlack Republican, sectional President of the United States, in the person of .Mr. Lincoln. The op mly avowed purpose of this hostile tri umphant party, being the overthrow and fined destruction of the institutions of the slavehold ing States of the Union, has necessarily produced a deep sensation of excitement throughout the slaveholdiiig States of the South, and the question naturally forces itself upon every parson capable of understanding the question. What is the best remedy to secure the interest of the Southern States"? But, gentlemen, you and many others who have known me best and known me longest, desire iny views upon this all important subject, and you shall have them freely. I have nothing to conceal. My motto is “God and my country.” I have, from early boyhood and throughout my life, gloried in our admirable lorin of free Govern inent and equal rights, and have enjoyed to the full, its onward march to glory and renown, amongst the great nations of the earth. Other blessings, which are so eagerly sought by our race, have never occupied so large a share of my time or thoughts, as that of the honor and glory of my country. Therefore, I have constantly felt, and often said, when the country has heretofore been passing through epochs of political strife and trial, *• The Fale.nl Union must he preserved. ’ I have gloried in our Union and its expansion, as well, in consideration of its beneficent influence on the Governments of the human race every where, as its benefits to our own people ; and, up to a very recent date, my mind lias been inces santly engaged in devising plans, to make even the humiliating catastiophe of Mr. Lincoln s election the means of bringing about a better state of things, in regard to the s'nvc question. Hut alas! After all that I hive said, and truly said, I am forced to the conclusion that we of the South cannot save the Federal Union. We arc a minority. The hireling States could save the Union, hut they wi.il »«•* '*'*•“ 1 T ~ ! — *: 3 fi Oi.iaeu, never again to be united. lhe corus which once bound us in fraternal bonds are sun dered, “wounds of deadly hate have pierced too deep.” Violated faith cannot be restored.— The fanatics and spiritualists of the North are la boring under strong delusions—they believe lies which will destroy lbem Those who form the great masses of the people of the North at the present day, believe that they are nnder a higher law than any human code, to be the implacable and irrepressible enemy of every slaveholder and ail others who do not think and feel as they do on that subject. Their minds have been completely s iterated with the one great idea which they en tertain in regard to negro slavery. They hare h'-endyrd ia the icoal. Their first lessons received under the parental root, at the breast of their mothers, and in the nursery room of infancy, aid ed bv startling pictures of cruelty inflicted on negroes by their demon-like masters. Then the teachings in the Sabba'U and common schools, done its work faithfully in the same direction. And to more fully confirm lliese earthly teachings, the venerated and holy minister of the sanctuary, has done his (till share in blasphemy against God and man, in confirming slander and falsehood upon the minds of these misguided people. What hope c.m we have of bringing such a people as this to a knowledge of the truth f I have no hope that a people brought up under such misapprehensions, and so thoroughly educated and instructed in regard to our slave institutions, can do jus*ice to a slaveholder. Under all the existing circumstances, T believe the best hope of prosperity left to all the slave holding States, is to secede from our present Fed eral Union at once, without delay, and as soon as may be. firm a new and Independent Confederacy, allowing none but those recognizing the right of holding negro slaves within their limits, a place in tim new Confederacy. But the act of secession should lie the separate act of each sovereign State, in separate Conventions. It is easy to prove the indisputable right of a State to secede trom our present Union. It is the most valuable reserved right of each State of the Union. And the idea of forcing a State back into the Union, is quite too preposterous to merit refutation. Even Grimly himself, treats with scorn and derision the idea of forcing States to continue in our present Union I could greatly amplify the ideas I have express ed, hut time will not permit, and to conclude witliin'the one hour which I have allowed myself to write this hasty communication—allow me to — -.i diversity of opinion on this subject—all good an<T patriotic men. Let us be a baud of brothers in Georgia Let all our old strifes cease. Let us create no new ones. Although born in Virginia, I have lived in Georgia upwards of 77 years. Few have lived in the State so long—none have received a larger share of the kindness and confidence of her peo ple. Were I not devoted to Georgia, and the best interest of her r*on!» >— ,l “T ~ Here are the graves of my parents and grand parents. of most of my brothers, and six of my o» n beloved sons. I say to the people of Georgia, “whither thou goest I will go, and whither thou lodgest I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God. Where thou diest I will die, and tiiere will I be buried. Nothing but death shall part us!” WILSON LUMPKIN. From the Boston Liberator. It.ight Heading for Ifliuutc Tien, THE CHICAGO DEMOCRAT OUTDONE. Repeal of Personal Liberty Laws.—Tint the slave-holders of the South and their Northern abettors should be clamorous for the repeal of the Personal Liberty laws in free States, in order that no protection may be given to any victim claimed as a fugitive, is nothing strange: but that a single Republican journal should be found so demented or so brutal as to join in thisfieudisli cry. is indeed passing strange—especially on the pretence that such repeal would at once conciliate the tyrants and traitors at the South, and given repose and stability to Mr. Lincoln’s administration. Noth ing will appease them but a surrender of all man hood on the part of the people of the North, and entire conlormity to all their diabolical purposes. They are as inexorable as death and as insatiate as the grave. Thsir principles are those ot bur glars, highwaymen and pirates, and their practices are a great deal worse. In support of their hellish slave system, they would (if necessary) andihilate the very existence of the North, nor stop at the commission of any crime, however monstrous or d.vilish. We by no means dissent from the conclusion as to the duty of dissolving the Union. That duty is imperatively imposed ttpoa the North by every moral and religious consideration. Yes, "the covenant with death” must be annulled, “the agreement with hell” must not stand. It is not decent for the North to wait for the South to take, the initiative. It ought to declare the conditions of the Union no longer to be tolerated by a moral and Christian people Now that the South avows her readiness to withdraw, let the. North joyfully and promptly acquiesce in the measure. The Personal Liberty law in Massachusetts will not be rep-aled, but it will be amended and made elfectual for the protection of every hunted fugitive coining within the limits of the State. This is the first duty to be done. Let the brand of a villain anj kidnapper be put upon every man who is for the execution of the Fugitive Slave law on our soil. Let every journal that counsels complaince with Southern demands be btt without a subscriber, and its editor be denied admittance to the society of the virtuose and upright. Let things be called by their right names, and the abettors of slavery ranked among the vilest of the vile. • Of Rings that Confer Invisibility.—Various other curious properties have been attributed to rings, either by the credulous fancy of the popu lace, or the creative fancy of poets. Every one has heard of Gyges, king of Lydia, who had a ring which was said to possess the virtue of ren dering him invisible when he turned it in his hand without depriving him of the power of see ing others. In later days, there was a traditiou that one Keddie, a tailor, found in a cavtrn in the hill of Kinnoul, near Perth, a ring possessing a similar property to that of Gyges. This gothic version of the classic tale is told by Sir Walter Scott, iu a note to bis “Fair Maid of Perth.”—Once a Week. A Quaker’s Wir.—Mr. Dillwyn’s son told me that bis father, in his younger days, was with a party of military officers. Oae of them, a pert, effeminate, young dandy, undertook to quiz the plain Quaker, and after somo indifferent jokes, asked him to hold liis sword fora minute, suppos ing he would consider it au abomination to touch it. Mr. Dillwvn, however, eyeing the young inan from head to foot, said, ‘ As I believe lrom thy appearance it has never sh-d blood and is not in the least likely to do so, I have not the smallest ob jection.”—Leslie’s Autahiography.

Udolpbo Wolfe, now the largest manufacturer of Gin in the World is by birth a Virginian. He was horn in Richmond. He is the seventh son of Major Benjamin Wolfe, deceased, who was an officer of the American Revolution. Of those sons only three are living; Joel, allo- ded to hereafter, and Nat Wolf, the great criminal lawyer of Kentucky for tho last twenty years — Originally taken to Kentucky by Henry Clay, Nat Wolfe retained the friendship of the great statesmnu to the last hour of his life.— Udolpbo Wolfe removed to the city of New York in 1826, and entered the counting-house of his elder brother, Joel Wolfo, who was tlieu largely engaged in the importation of brandy and gin from France and Holland. Young Wo fe's bus iness qualification and energetic perseverance soon gave him a prominent position in the house of his brother, and when he reached the age of 21 he became a partner. In 1839 that brother established the first distil lery in Hchiadaui (Holland J ever undertaken by an American, and it yet continues, and is the place where the famous “Wolfe's Shtedam Aromatic, Schnapps,'’ is now manufactured. In 1848 the senior partner of the house retired from active business, having accumulated a large fortune. In that same year Udolpbo Wolfo made the fortunate discoveries that led to the manufac ture of this now world-wide-famed “Schiedam Schnapps.” Udolpbo Wolfe, although a merchant, has ever taken a prominent interest in the political ques tions of the day, especially in stern,though disinter ested, opposition to each and every political patty or leader who aimed to disturb the sacred insti tutions of the South, where he was born. In any matter that affected Virginia or her lead ing men, whether of the present or the glorious past, Mr. Wolfe has taken a deep and patriotic in terest. When the removal of the remains of the lamented Monroe, who had been a warm personal friend of Mr. Wolfe’s father, as well as of him self, was resolyed upon, no man took a more ac tive part than Mr. Wolfe. When tho Seventh Regiment returned to New York, Mr. Wolfe compiled and published a book, with a full narration of everything connected with the obsequies of the late ex-President, at au expense of three or four thousand dollars. This book also contained a full description of the famed Seventh Regiment, and also biographical sketches of the principal officers. It contained 346 pages. It has become a Book of History. Mr. W. presented the Seventh Regiment with 1,200 copies.and also presented through Gover nor Wise and the Mayor of Norfolk, copies of the book to all the principal civil and military officers, and, in addition, ho placed a copy in every pub lic library in the different States. Not only Southern himself, he married a lady of Mobile, Alabama. In closing this article, we merely desire to say that the history of the eminent energetic merchant gives the lie to the oft-repeated charge that the South produces no commercial men of distinction. Mr. Wolfe is the most extensive merchant in his branch of commercial manufacture that has ever lived in this Union. —— Madame LeVert, of Mobile, Alabama, lias a new work in press, entitled “The League of Friendship.” Judge Meek made a good point last night.

Resolved. That as a Leopard cannot change his spots, nor the Ethiopian his skin, so we believe the Black Republicans are morally incapable of reversing their sentiments, and granting to their Southern brethren all of tiie rights of person and property guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, aud so believing we have no faith Resolved, That we desire and greatly prefer a Confederation of all, or at least a majority of the Southern States ii^effecting a plan by which we may, as a people, resume all of the powers and rights deb-gat. d in the formation of the present Union. But failing in this we then are for sepa rate Stale action, and that of all of this looks to no tints beyond the 4th of next March.

On motion, the Chair appointed a Committee of five to draft resolutions, expressive of the sentiments ot this meeting. The Committee having been appointed, re tired for a short time, returned with the following reso lotions. ^ Whereas, We nre again called upon as a portion of the people of Georgia to express ourselves in regard to our Federal Relations, and believing thut the issues before the people are of great magnitude, and vital importance to the South, and that preciptate action and timid submission, are alike dangerous to ns and our institutions; and notwithstanding we do not believe that the mere election of Abe Lincoln (o the Presidency a sufficient cause of a dissolution of our much beloved Union : Yet it evinces the strength nnd determination of a sectional party which has nullified the fugitive slave law, bid defiance to the Constitution, excited insurrection among our slaves, eucouraged in vasion into one State, and proclaimed etermd war against our institutions, honor and independence; and in view of the ominous threatenings of the future, the result of submission to this party, which is held togeth er only by the idea of hostility to slavery and its utter extermination, und which entertains principles that would have forever debased the Union of the original thirteen States is in effect to bind our hands and ubo- lil ionise our State. Therefore, Resolved 1st. Thnt the election of Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency is of itself a question too inferior to iustify the South in immediately seceding from the Union, but tlmt said election coupled with other wrongs, demand it redress of aggrievances in some wav. Resolved 2nd.

Resolved 4th. That those issues between the North and South, be settled before the 4th of March next, if possible, and let us not temporise until Lincoln lias strengthened his party at the North and built himself up one at the South, ail thus bind us hand aud foot.

Wenhinglon, Dec. 23.—Senator Toombs telegraphs this morning the following, addressed to the people of Georgia: Fellow-Citizens of Georgia I came here to secure your constitutional rights, or to demonstrate to you that you can get no guarantees for these rights from The whole subject was referred to n Committee of thirteen in the Senate yesterday. I was appointed on the Committee and accepted the trust. I submitted propositions, which so far from receiving decided sup port from a single member of the Republican party ou the Committee, they were all treated with either derision or contempt. The vote was then taken in Committee on the amendments to the Constitution proposed by Hon. J. J. Crittenden, of Kentucky, AND EACH AND ALL OF THEM WERE VO'i’ED AGAINST UNANIMOUSLY BY THE BLACK REPUBLI CAN MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE. Iu addition to these facts, a majority of the Black Republican members of the Committee DECLARED DISTINCTLY THAT THEY HAD NO GGRAN TEES TO OFFER, which was silently acquiesced in by the other members. 0 The Black Republican members of this Committee of Thirteen are representative men of their party aud section, and. to the extent of my information, truly rep resent the Committee of Thirty-Three in the House, which on Tuesday adjourned for a week without com ing to any vote, after solemnly pledging themselves to vote on all the propositions then before them ou that date. That Committee is controlled by Black Republicans, your enemies, who only seek to amuse you with delu sive hope until your election, in order that yon may defeat the friends of secession. If you are deceived by them it shall nut be my fault. I have put the test fairly and frankly. It is decisive against you; nnd now I tell you upon the faith of a true man that all further looking to the North for security for your con stitutional ligltts in the Union ought to be instantly abandoned. It is fraught with nothing but ruin to yourselves and your posterity. Secession by the fourth of March next should be thundered from the baliot box by the unanimous voice of Georgia on the second day of January next. Such a voice will be your best guarantee for LIBERTY, SECURITY,TRANQUILITY AND GLORY. ROBERT TOOMBS. For the Federal Union. Voting America nrouat-iL The Home Throat.

SAJI. Oct for Coercion.—The editor of the AT. Y. Times is now for war—his voice rises above the din of swords, and sounds like the clash of arms. flo “If the South Carolinians are disposed to spare Mr. Buchanan's feelings and waive all hostile ac tion until his terra expires, we shall be very glad to have them do so. Time will be gamed at all events, lint tchi never they choose to make the issue it must he tart. Whenever they resist the execu tion of the Federal laws, or attempt to seize the Federal property, they must be met precisely as the Boston mob was met when they attempted to rescue the negto Burns from Federal authority. Upon this point, as there can be no doubt, as there should be not one moment's hesitation. The talk is about peaceable secession—letting South Carolina go—shedding no blood to coerce a State, &c., is the shallowest and most mischievous non sense to which this discussion has given rise.” We trust the editor of the Times will be the first one to volunteer to coerce South Carolina. Per haps the editor does not know as much as he sup poses he does. South Carolina will tnako no is sue with the general gov mmeut about collecting revenue. All that she will do will be to simply declare liersef out of the Union, and act according ly. The attempt to force her back will be the is sue, and that will light up the tisine of civil war iu the Aorth. and unite the South to a man. If Mr. Lincoln is understood to endorao this coarse of policy, he trill ncrir step his fool in the IThite House. Mark that. Look It in the Face.—Let the readers of Northern fanaticism look to themselves. The breaking up of an Abolitionist meeting last Mon day in Boston—the hot bed of fanaticism—is a faiut indication of wbat is to come.
