i what give rlie to the Floyd county meet
ing over which Judge Lumpki < presided, and
but for this, we venture to say no meeting
would have been held at Rome, and no Con
vention in Cassville.

Tht contestItt Mississippi Is every day becoming
mere end more ekoiting. Of course, it it not hard
to piedict the reault. though the (Wendt of the Union
must continue action and bo vigilant if they would
hope for d Waterloo victory. They 'fight upon the
"Georgia Platform," and cannot' fail of eucceea.

Mamktt* Ga. July 8,1841.
Aftef a vary hot, amoky, dusty, but rapid
ride, in company with Messrs. Baantstc and
Fanning of the Floyd delegation, i arrived
nt this place .on yesterday afternoon, and
found it quite thronged with visiters and del*
egales from every portion of the State. The
trains to-day will doubtless bring large acces-
eloni , Already the hotels and many of the
private houses are full to overflowing, and a
perfect jam is anticipated The Convention
meets this morning at 11 o’clock, in the
“Cherokee Hall,” which has beeu fitted up
for the occasion.
The weatl)ep rt js exceedingly hot end dry.
The thermometer on.jjsterday was up to 94,
In many places along the road corn is literal
ly dying up.- Accounts from below are also
very .discouraging. Farmers’-in Cherokee,
should not sell their wheat prematurely
There is qtiite a sprinkling of politicians
here of all patties. : The Union men look
buoyant and.cheerftil, the fire-eaters a lit
tle fierce and crusty. Our friends think
Conn will 1 achieve en easy victory over
McDonald even in this county, 1 hope
they will not be deceived. That he will carry
the State, there is no doubt, but it must be
recollected that this county was very equal
ly divided at the last fall election. Our op
ponents are endeavoring to create the im
pression that Mr. Chastain will not be cor
dially sustained by the Union men of this
District, They will be deceived; Theyfor-
get that we go for a great and good cauae
and that to save the Republic, we are willing
to sacrifice personal preferences and preju
dices. Let our . friends beware upon this
subject, and not credit every idle rumor to
the prejudice of the character and prospects
of Col. Chastain.
1 write in great haste, amid the din of the
multitude. Youre, K.
FOR THE COURIpR.
Mr. Editor: I was forcihly reminded while
rending ah article in the Southerner of last
week, entitled “The Nashville Convention,”
of. Dick Miggins’ defence to the suit brought
against him for breaking the pot. Dick al
leged by way of defence, 1st—That the pot
au broke when be borrowed it. 2d, That
iii.was »Qund when he carried it home. 8d,
That he never borrowed the pot at ail. The
Writer of the article alluded to, says, 1st,
That the Nashville Convention ought to have
adopted the line proposed by the Legisla-
tures of the South, and the primary ns.-em ■
bliea of the people. 2d, That the Nashville
Pqnveation adopted the Missouri Compro
mise line. 3d,-That the same Legislature
determined that 36, 30 was too little to be
demaadell by the Nashville Convention, and
(•fused to sanction a bill proposing that line
at a compromise.
What a firm Wiggins and the writer would
k make- Miggins for law, and for po-
I lilies. Compared with them Quirk, Gam-
■ mon and Snap would be nowhere.

. The committee appointed to present suita-
le resolutions on the occasion of the death
V Brother WILLIAM C. POPE, made the
Blowing report:
In the dispensation of Providence, our be-
1 Brother Willi m C. Pope, has been
poved from our midst—his earthly exis-
t has terminated--his immortal one com-
He left the one agd entered upon
f her with bright hopes of immortal glo-
Ve have not his presence with us; we
t his familiar vuice---lt is hushed in
|M of death. But we have his ex-
jcachings of his. life, and the re-
' i virtues. Let us learn wis-
I while honor his me
mory and mingle our tears over his bier, let
us also remember that the message to us is,
“ Be ye also ready.”
As a tokeu of the respect and esteem in
which our brother was held,
Resolved, That in the death of Brother
Pope, who departed this life on the Evening
of the 3d instant, this Lodge and the Ma
sonic fraternity generally, have been depriv
ed of a bright example in Masonry, and the
Church of a just and upright member.
Resolved, That we tender our heartfelt
sympathies to the family and relatives of our
deceased worthy brother, and assure them
that while among us, he endeared himself to
all by his kindness, benevolence and Chris
tian deportment.
Resolved, That the members of this Lodge
will wear the usual badge of mourning thirty
days, and that the jewels and furniture of
the Lodge be clothed in mourning.
Resolved, That this report be published in
the papers of this city, also tho Masonic
Journal at Marietta, and that a copy be trans
mitted to the parents of our deceased brother.

Daddy ! hns any State in this Union the
right to secede f
Certainly, son, Gov McDonald, our can
didate for Governor, in his tetter of acceptance
sa.vs, "The right of a State, in virtue of its
independence and sovereignty, to secede from
the Union, whenever the people thereof, in
their sovereign capacity, determine such step
to he necessary to effect their safety and hap
piness, flows necessarily from the nature of
our Governmental organization.”
Well, daddy, you know we paid all the
expenses of the Mexican war, forgave a debt
of three millions that Mexico owed us,
and paid Mexico besides, fifteen millions,
amounting in all to something over one hun
dred millions of dollars, for California. Now
■oppose the Stale of California should in
virtue of her independence and sovereignty,
secede from the Union and by that act de
prive ua of all the benefits we expected to
realize from the purchase, how would we
manage la get back the money we paid for
it?
Oh, go oiTTom, you are always trying to
bother somebody !—Gtiffin Union'
MCDONALD AND RHETT-
Well, reader, the coalition between
McDonald nnd Rhett, the Secessionist
of Georgia and the Secessionist of South
Corolinin stands revealed at last. The
"cloven font" has been thrust out—the
secret hns bean divulged. Read tho fol
lowing cxtrnct from the speech of Mr
Rhett. as reported by the Charleston Cou
rier. Tho speech, was delivered on Suli-
van’s island opposite Charleston, on the
28th June, the anniversary of tho battle ol
Fort Moultrie r
“Mr' Rhett then alludsd to the circum
stances which hod brought him to this
meeting, as he knew bad things had been,
nnd would be, said of him elsewhere ; that
he had gotten up this meeting, &c. But the
fait wus that the Committee had invited
him, and he was there. He would go
wherever South Carolina called. He feared
not Federal bnyonots, but Southern treache
ry. He would obey any summons from the
State; and should he have to come to what
Clay said he was fit for, the gallows, he
would adorn it, in this cause, as well as any
other man. The prospects, however, are
cheering. GEORGIA, Alabama and MU
sisSfppi are coming. QUITMAN ar.d MC
DONALD are blowing a bugle in the West,
which will be heard in the extremities oj Yan-
keetloin He did not dread the RESULT;
the CA USE was good, and nothing would
tempt the North to oppose it but internal di
visions.”
What better evidence can any man re
quire of the coalition between Gov. McDon
ald and the South Carolina leaders, Ilian
that here presented ? Rhett, the acknowl
edged champion ot Disunion, informs the
revolutionist of his own State that Geurgia
is coming, of course, to them; tbat“McDON
ALD and QUITMAN aie blowing the bu
gle” (of Secession; “in the West”—that he
aid not dread the RESULT’’—and that “the
CAUSE was good.” He thus gives the
right hand of fellowship to McDonald, and
endorses him to the Carolinians. What more
can the people of Georgia ask ? Will they
never open their ey es to the league which ex-
islB between Rhett, McDonald, and Quit-
man, and other advocates of a Southern Con
federacy ?
The evide'ico that McDonald partici
cipatea in this wild scheme tor the establish
ment of a Southern Confederacy, is cumula
tive. We find him at one time presiding
over a meeting in Mac.on where the cry of
‘ disunion” was raised, and where Rhett
recommended “temporary secession” to the
people of Georgia. We next find hint at
Nashville, advocating the assembling of a
“Southern Congress” and the disunion of
parties North ana -South. Subsequently he
appears in a public address and warmly
presses the tecommendations of that revolu
tionary conclave upon the people of Georgia.
And lastly, we find Riip.tt his colaborer at
Macon coming to his nid. Rhett pats him
on the shoulders, and tells him that he is in
u “good cause,” and that he does “not dread
the result.”
Disguise and mistify it ns his friends may,
the fact stands ot as cigar as the Andes
against the heavens, that McDonald is in lull
fellowship with the Carolina leaders, He
and Rhett and Quitman are the leagued
and leading spirits in the movement for
Southern Confederacy. The proofs are
complete Evidence equally conclusive would
ensure conviction ip nay court of justic.
Let the people of Georgia then be care
ful how they cost their suffrages. If they
are really determined to preserve the Union
on the platform ot their groat Convention,
how can ‘.hey rote for McDonald on whom
rest so many suspicious, in preference to Mr.
Cobb, whose devotion to the Union and the
South connot be doubled, whatever else
may be snid nf him ? It is for them to decide.
