He made j no confessiorvof his guilt, but died protesting his innocence. TIIE AGONY OVER.—'Flic Union Demo cratic Republicans mustered their forces at the Slate House last Wednesday. It was a ; verv unfortunate movement for them, that ! they changed the style of their invitation : they might under first notice bavccnilect* ed together a goodly number, and aii would have been passed off by their organs as a great meeting of the Friends of the Union. But when they called together the Union Democratic Republicans—that was another affair; altogcth, r a different party, and ac cordingly from all parts of the State they mustered about £oo.—We were not present, not being one of the indoetr rutted, and did not hear the proceedings of this vast con course of people. We presume they have 6:izud this opportunity to set forth their political crcetl: We marvel much what it can be. Time will siiow. in reference to the (lie number present we would observe, that party claims to have about 150 members of the Legislature, in its ranks: they were present. “A Northern paper is of opinion that the next Congress will repeal the “Force Bill” assigning as a reason for its opinion that there is no longer any necessity for it. Doubtless! Georgia nulli fied treaty after treaty, and the matter was conniv ed at, because South Carolina was in the way, and it would not do to punish one and not the other. That difficulty being now removed -the arm that was uplifted to crush her having been arrested it is now expedient, to repeal the --mat” We take the above from the Charleston Even ing Post. We are of the opinion too that Con gress will repeal the Force Bill, not, however, for the reasons mentioned by the Post. Georgia is not disposed to receive justice at the hands of Ihe President of the United States as a matter of greet and favor; we demand it as a right, and are disposed in all cases to maintain the position we assume. The disposition of the Piesitleut to distinguish between the case of Georgia and that of South Carolina, met with its proper estimation among us. And his high handed attempt to en force an unconstitutional act of Congress contra ry to the expressed will of a sovereign state, re ceived no sanction, save from the Federalists and their allies in this State. We believe, that Con gress will repeal the “Force Bill,” because we believe its continuance upon thcStatute Book a disgrace to the nation, and an insult to the oove* reigsty of each particular State in the Union — We have some confidence ytt in the virtue and intelligence of the people of tho different States—and therefore, hope they will expressly Greet their Representatives to insist on the re fed of that bill, as the only atonement that can be offered to the violated sovereignty of the .Slates, Georgia has already instructed her Representa tives to demand a repeal of the act. The instruc tions emanated from a large meeting of the State Bights Party; and out of the nine Representative* from this State, six belong to that party. One "as elected by tho joint vote of both parties, ■(having a majority of neither) and the other two, •uccseded small majorities. THE MASK OFF.—The charge has been often made upon the Clark Party iu this State, that they were Federalists; but we did not know that the new Union Democratic Republican Party, had also adopted the same creed. \\ e were un tkr the impression, that the Clark Party had been converted from the error of their ways, by the few "ho left the racks of the State Rights Party to balance themselves in a neutral position; neither tudlifftr Sor subtnissioiilsts, flesh nor fish, Repub licans nor Federalists. Bat alas! for human frailly, thej have relapsed in their former error, Wkslided into their former heresies. At the Keut meetisg of about 200 Union Democratic Republicans from all parts of the State, the first Resolution they adopted, reads as follows: Retailed, That the Federal Constitution is a compact creating and defining’ tlio common go vernment established over the sovcrtign'Suics by which it was adopted. We will nut pause to comment on the had grammar and uncouth expression, w hich heralds forth to the frcvtmm nf Georgia so pretty a speci >”.cn of doctrinal refinement; ninee Giv Lump bin's inaugural took the lead in sitting at d»- fiance the rule* of syntax. \A c are not surpiiacd *• tbs nptnest of hit party in improving on no lan <,JM« an sxsmpls. We do net exactly eem U 1 hen J tb* ir, s.*p of the resolution. If It GEORGIA TIMES, A!*I) STATE RIGHTS’ ADVOCATE. means, that the Federal Government isacommon goverment established over the States, and there fore vested with a supreme authority, we beg leave to differ with these learned Doctors of the Daw, and suggest to them that even their disci ples preach up a different theory: in proof where oi ws contrast this said first resolution and a par agraph from the Federal Union cf ths 2Dth uH. the resolution. Fto-u the Federal Union. Resolved, That the Fed The States have two oral Constitution is a sets (f agents, the Fede ccmpacl,creatingaud dc- ral Government, As. tae fining ti.e eouiijcn go- -itate Government; and veriinn r.t established they have divided their fDl.ll the sr.vereign rights into tvvoclasscs, .-tales by which it wa-jiiie preservation & tnan atii pled. 'agemenl of which they jiiave confided to each of j.hese agents. By the Resolution we are taught that the Fed eral Government is tho supreme authority estab lished over the sovereign st iles by the-compact which they adopted: by tho paragraph from the Federal Union wo are told, this is aniistabe; the l'edcral Government is not the supreme authority but only an agent of the Slates. How these glaring inconsistencies are to be reconciled, we tbank our stars that we arc not proficient enough in quibbling to perceive. If i. is their pleasure to maintain two different sets of doctrines, we have not the slightest objection knowing that the people of Georgia are not pliant enough to believe the same principle trae vo-day, aud false to-morrow. The Resolution is inconsistent with itself— The Constitution is said to bt a compact, creating a common government established over the sove reign states by which it was adopted. From which wc infer that the toveretgn states created this government and established it ever them, they could not have created it, had it been alrcndy esta! fished. Now, these states cannot be collectively sovereign who are controlled by another aud a different power; that is ;o suy a government is not sovereign which has another government over it. But the establishment of this government over these sovereign states, was not the act of any one state but tho act of all; therefore a separate state did not establish this common government over its own, but the govern ment was erected and established over each one by the acts of other and different states; there fore no one of them is sovereign. So much for the first Resolution containing the fundamental doctrines of the Union Democratic Republican l'arly. Their other Resolutiens amounting to a round dozen are equally grammatical,consistent, and logical; unfortunately for them, they are less “mystical” and prove conclusively that the same Union Democratic Republican Party, are the ad vocates of Disunion. We shall attend to them in due time. SPREAD OF NULLIFICATION.—The ral ymg of the State Right’s party inder oue banner, has stricken consternation and dismay in the ranks of our opponents. Our numerous pen nons heretofore pitched at random on Hie field, are aovv marshalled together, and when next we meet our adversaries, “ Georgia shall tell the fight.” The Union Democratic Republican Party are already on the alert, anxious to secure by strata gem, what they despair of achieving hy force of argument. They have exhausted their ingenui nuitv in devising expedients to bring us into dis credit with the people; forgetting that the peo ple themselves constitute the State Rights party of Georgia. Tilt ir latest invention consists in I'lC a39cT%t*W , Imr i!(LJ A.rtk *•» 7/*/y through the columns of the Federal Union, that, vve “ are enemies to the rights of the States !! ! ’ We Bight be suspected of punning if we should say this was a capital method of Enforcing con viction. The days of italic wit, and the rhetoric of caps, lias long since gone hy ; and writers must now depend more upon thesoundness of their argument, than the elegance of their typography. This discovery of the enmity of the State Rights’ party of Georgia, to the rights of the States, should be considered an epoch in political histo ry : it is as ingenious aid as authentic, as the solution of the celebrated fish queslitn, propound ed by Dr. Franklin to the philosophers of the Royal academy. The'late course of the Federal Union when the convention project was before the people, furnishes such equivocal evidence of its devotion to the rights and interests of the peo ple, that we feel constrained to believe that they had first in view ths benefit of their party, when they hazarded the promulgation of so glaring an absurdity If that is really their belief w e pity their delusion, if they know it to be false, we can smile at their harmless malice. If the edi tors of that print cannot comprehend the creed of the State Rights’ party, if from a miscon struction of their import they have ventured on so extraordinary an assertion, if their abilities are too feeble to grasp the mighty truths contain ed in the preamble ar.d resolutions they denounce. We are yet willing to pretermit oar indignation, and yield them such instruction on that point, as wemay be able to impart; trusting to their can- dor, however, for a full admission of their error. In their article noticing the assembling of the advocates of State Rights, they exhibit consid erable testiness. We are not surprised that the vehicle of the Consolidation doctrines should be somewhat vexed at the prospect of utter and s comfiture that awaits its party and their doc trines. The principles of Statu Rights are lit erally going forth “ conquering and to conquer.” Nay, so searching is its effulgence that it has , en t a scintilla of its light where we have here tofore found nought but Cimmerian gloom, into the columns of the Federal Union itself. We were as much astonished, as we can conceive cur readers to be, whan we read in that print a pro position that lays the axe to the very root of the doctrines of Union. Mark, the distinction, the friends of the Union arc the nullificrs, who re fuse to see the provisions cf the Constitution vio lated with impunity, the friends of Umon, are the opponents of the Nullificrs, who are careless of the provisions of the constitution provided the power to violate is in their hands. The strugg.c of the one is for principle, of tho ether for office and for power. The following is the proposition to which wc alluded übove : •• The Slates ha re two rets of aoints. the federal euirrnment, end the state government; and they kite and , Jed their rights into tee classes, the pn. r, r satin a and man gemtnt of one if which they I'm fdr.t to e. eh es these rg-nS. ' W e cau very readily understand the nature of the agency exercised by the Federal Govern, inent, in behalf of the States : and, as this first clause of the paragraph we have extracted, is the portion we specially commend to the atlen liou of our readout, we will defer noticing its lat ter clause, till some future lime. It is clearly admitted in the paragraph we have quoted that the Federal Government is the agent of the .Slates. An agent acts under the authority, aud by tbe direction ol a supotior : and when lie transcends tbe authority delegated to him, his acts are unantliorita'ive, and void : that agent must be foolish indued, v he presumes to dictate to bis employer tbe teuns upou which bis authori ty is delegated, or the limits to which it is con fined ; and when told by his employer, that he io exceeding the power granted, sh"uld coolly laugn in bis face, arid tell him, I know better than you, how much authority you gave me. — The Federal Union admits the Federal Govern ment is the agent of the States. The States ibwefore are the Superior, and tbe authority they conferred oq their agent is tobeexcrcisedxc ccrdii g to the prov'sions of a written instrument know as the Constitution cf tiie U. S. If then the Federal Government transcends this authori ty its acts are void and of no force, and if void the States by whom the authority was delegated are not bound to obsy or recognise any act thus readered void. Thus by tbeir own admission tbs Editors of the Federal Union ar# proved to be somewhat tainted by Nullification. Verily, they must be sincere in tbeir oppusiliuu to its principles. \Ye have seen the letter of Maj. Jacob Wood, calling upon Judge Cuyler to certify that be was not one of the Yazoo speculators. We have no disposition to press an unfounded charge, aud should Itave passed it over without further notice, bad wc not keen implicated by the “reiteration of the charge.”. Since the matter lias been now brought before the public, and since the very page has been cited where the name of the hon orable Senator is to be found; let him explain how tiie name came there. If lie wishes to satis fy the public that bis name was enrolled without reason in tbe act handing down to eternal infamy, these avaricious speculators; let him apply to those who were members of the Legislature by whom that act was passed—some of those pa. triots yet survive. Gen. D. B. Mitchell of this county, was a member cf that Legislature; Dr. Geo. Jones of Savannah was also a member, and we believe Gen. Blackshear of Laurens. Let the Honorable Senator procure their certificates to the purity of bis public character, and that his name was incorporated in that act without author ity. MR. CHAPPELL’S RESOLUTIONS. These truly patriotic and Statesman like re solutions, winch have been before the people and the Legislature, for mure than a week past, were yesterday brought up iri tiie Sen ate, as the special order of tiie day. After they were read, a substitute for tlii iu was presented hy Mr. Baxter, of rather a dissimilar character, and not very credita ble, in our opinion, to the great principles for which we are contending. Mr. C. supported Ins Resolutions in an argumentative and eloquent speech, entirely divested of tiie common-place cant of the •lay. He went into a critical investigation ot the question, as it !'js been involved in the multifarious and confused authorities which have enveloped it, by party distinctions, since Hie Declaration of Independence, and the aitu|it or. of u.o rtuiaiiiutmo of rbo Unite.'! States. It appeared to us, that the most on tuse intellect could not have I istened to his masterly illustrations of our multiform, but plainly digested system of government, with out yielding a r ady assent, and heartily res pond! g to them. He denied that the States, either collec tively, or individually, ever patted with the slightest iota of their sovereignty that sovereignty still rested with them, as far and us full in its extent, as ever it did. Tile States, ho said, have been pronounced by an authority, reverenced and recognized by aii as FREE SOVEREIGN AND INDEPENDENT.” Where then, he asked, was the sovereignty and independence of a State, if the General Government could exercise over it, aeon trolling influence t It was a contradiction in terms, to suppose fora moment, that under such surveillance Sovereignty or Indepen dence could exist. It could not he imagined without a distortion and confusion of lan guage and ideas, wiihout in fact, a reckless abandonment of the plain, common sense, and unerring expositions of the Constitution. NORTH CAROLINA.—The Legislature of N. Carolina convened at Raleigh on Wed nesday, 18th ult. In the Senate Wx, D. Moseley was re-elected Speaker without op position. Samuel F.

The Internal Improvement Convention assembled at Raleigh last Monday. SOU PH CAROLIN A—The Hon. Srpfien D. Miller has resigned his seat in the Senate of the U. S. 11l health is assigned as the reason of his resignation ; Col. Preston is spoken of as his successor. The death es the Hon. Wm, D. Martin is announced in tho Charleston papers. The Charleston Bar met and passed the following Preamble and Resolution i Aficr some appropriate rcmaiks by the Chairman, James I-.F-digrti, Esq submitted the following Preamble and Resolutions, which were unanimously adopted : A lien a distinguished man is removed from the scene 01 Ins ustfulu v-*, the society that was cheered bv his presence, must painfull) for T the void which is created by his re moval. And wiicn such none is called away in an instant, and Ins light extinguished without warning, the sensation of the survi vors is like the shock produced hy some great convulsion. We however bow before the Divine dc-cruc, and our hearts sink under the a *p»!lii'g (NttMciounMy of our feeble nature. With such sentiments tin: Charleston Bar assemble to offer to tbe memory of Judge Martin »lie effusio .sos their warm attach ment and their deepfelt rerpeet. His life was a blessing as tar a his influence extend ed, and his death is a loss commensurate with a ivdi circle of public duty ami private bonciob nee. Ho that would draw his character fully, would show to the world, what a just man, and an upright magistrate shoulb oe. But grief restrains the voice ol eulogy, and the conlempD.l . i of the talents, •he benevolence, the cordial w armth and liit inflexible integrity of Judge Martin, now only rennnd us more forcibly of the inestima ble value of that which we have lo- . I. unc bis lot to serve bis country in many situations of much distinction, and uniformly to satisfy tho high expectations of his nuinc mu- friends But his career was short as it tiros l-r:giit— and his orb wa« extinguished lung before the day of his usefulness liaj i! ‘din 'd into tin evening of life, lie hud closed his bisi cir cuit witn no tho order and ac tivity to which ho was accu.-touu <!; a..d like a faithful servant whose day of duty is over lay down to rest an;' a toke no more.

Therefore. Ite&'.lccd, That in the death of tbe Hon. William 1).
