Executive Department, ) Millkihskville, U.i., Jan. 28, 1856. )’ / • the Senate ami Hume <4' Representatives: 1 received, a lew days ago, a series of resolutions adopted by tin* Legislature of Vermont, in relation to Kansas, transmitted bv tire Governor of that State, to he submitted to the General Assemble of Georgia. I have hesitated to comply with the re quest of the last resolution, for two reasons—first, becau-'* 1 deprecated the humiliation of being made die medium to communicate an insult to the State of Georgia; and secondly, because I equally deprecate a renewal of the agitation of the ques tion of slavery so adverse to the repose of the pop ular mind, so destructive of the feelings of amitv, which should characterize the relations between the States of this Republic, and so hostile to the >lability and integrity of the Union. But after ■ ■aim deliberation, I have deemed it my duty to transmit to you these resolutions, content that the consequences shall be upon the heads of their au thors. The Preamble and Resolutions profess to assert facts and principles, but their allegations of facts were false and their principles totally unsound and a', variance with the correct theory of our Govern ment. As a fact, they assert that the power and in thience of the slaveholding States have been exert ed in extending and strengthening the institution el imnan slavery ; that for this purpose the laws vi the recovery of fugitive slaves, and the organi -itionof territorial governments for Kansas and Nebraska, were passed and that the present admin- Mration of the General Government has lent itself • i these illegal and unjust schemes. If the occa sion required, it would bean easy task to confront j these declarations with the teachings of all our ;,,st history. Not a solitary instance can be ad ■ -d in which the slaveholding .States ever asked Congress, even to take jurisdiction of the question - • -(.-.very, much less to exercise the power of pro eing its establishment or extension. Non-inter vention is mnv, and always has been, their motto. ; T v have deprecated t lie agitation of the subject i in every form. They have remonstrated against : introduction into the halls of Congress. They have appealed to the fanatics of non-slaveholding | States, by every argument by which they could ■ to reach their patriotism, or their reason, to d -ist from their assaults upon the constitutional •bis of the smith. The passage of the law for re capture of fugitive slaves, so far from being . ontrarv to the clear intent of the founders of the . o l ament and in violation of the spirit of the \ i stitmion," was in perfect accordance with both. ; ; n* Kansas-Nebraska act, so from being amea in\ iting the establishment of slavery in those ■ -ritories -imply opens them to the free ingress of,ill the citizens of the several States, and invests tli -m with the right of making their own laws, ilijerM to no restriction but that of conformity to tin* Constitution of the United States. The pre - u: administration of the General Government is. therefore, "lent itself” to no “illegal and un •t schemes” by seeing to the faithful execution t us these laws. But to have been derelict, the Pro •; ient would have incurred a guilt, next in turpi ■.de t-i treason against the Constitution which lie i sworn to support. The assertions of the pre .Bible and resolutions of Vermont, in reference to the proceedings of the Kansas Legislature, are r jually unfortunate. It is a fact of general noto : »ty, that under the proclamation of Gov. Reeder, prescribing the time, place and manner of holding < lectionsfor members of the Territorial Legislature ; i Kansas, the people thereof, selected their rep- , i-'semaiives, that they convened at the place de -ignated in his proclamation, received from the ; Governor certificates of their election, organized as <t legislative body, and the Governor communicated I-- them hi- inaugural message. Thus regularly clothed with legislative functions, they proceeded i derly to the enactment of laws for the govern ment of Kansas. Now, it is asserted that armed citizens from Missouri unlawfully invaded the Territory, took possession of the ballot box. pre vented a certain class of citizens from exercising tiie elective franchise, and thus vitiated the elec lions held in pursuance of the Governor’s procla mation. This is not true ; and looking to the cir cumstances of the case, it is impossible to have been true In this pr.cd imation. Gov. Reeder tvi careful to specify and define the mode of contesting the legality of the election of members to the Territorial Legislature, lie prescribed ‘‘that in case any person- shall desire to contest the elec- i timi of any district of the territory, they shall make a written statement, directed to the Governor, set ting forth the particular precinct or district they intend to contest, the candidate whose election they dispute, and the specific causes of complaint, m the conduct or return oi -aid election, which complaint shall he signed by not less titan ten 'nullified voters of the Territory, and with the nth davit of one or more of such voters, as to the truth ot tiie facts set forth therein ; such written -■ cement must be presented to the Governor at his office, on or before tiie 4th day of April, 1855, ■.ml if it shall appear that the result of the election in any council district might be changed bv said ■■ mt-jst, a day will be fixed for hearing the cause." The seats of several members were contested, and igh the mode prescribed was pursued, yet the Governor entertained the cases, declared the seats vi ant. ordered new elections, and issued certifi es.- -of election to the persons so elected. Xow, Governor Reeder’s sympathies are well known. It is notorious that he belongs to that party whose sentiments are reflected by these Ver mont resolutions. Is it then to be credited for one moment that it' the alleged violence and fraud upon the ballot-box, had been actually per : etrat-'-d, protests against the election would not have been forwarded in every instance; and if en '-.‘red, is i- not quite certain that the Governor would have vacated the elections V But instead of itis, there were but a few protests preferred, not Bough to change 1 lie political complexion of the Legislative Assembly ; and after the purgation of that body under the operation of these protests, very member was furnished with certificates of ’!«? Governor as the evidence of his right to a seat therein. Why then this clamor on the part of Vermont and the fanatics of the non-.-laveholding states against these proceedings of the Territory f Kansas ? It is because the elections alluded to under the non-intervention principles of the Kan sas-Nebraska Act, resulted in the return of n large majority to the Legislative Assemuiv in favor of ! he institution of slavery? For the purpose of jus tifyiug their clamor, they drew upon their imagi nation for facts, and proceeding entirely upou fils.- premier-, they are seconding the factions and ■ eitumus spirit of the Abolition party in Kansas, who. repudiating the elections and action of Terri '-‘ri&l Legislature, are seeking to erect Kansas into a non .-laveholding State and to secure her ad mis o n into the Union as such. It is not necessary for me to vindicate the State ■i Mi.-s-niri from the grossly insulting and falsi auptrations made against a respectable portion of hyr citizens. That is triumphantly proclaimed bv ■■‘'-‘history of the events to which l have alluded. I Jt in a more important respect, the attitude of the Mis-ourians, wlm are thus branded, challen r s the support and sympathy of Georgia, and the - iv,‘holding States, as well a- of the friends of the 1 ‘ustimtion, in even quarter of the Union. Itis natural that she should he peculiarly sensitive as tie- character of the domestic institutions of tviiusas. Though she ought not as she has not gaily to interfere m the affairs of Kansas, yet ' cannot be expected to stand as a tame speota ■’- '■■■ ■vi rail dinary efforts front the east i" *“-‘litionize that territory. Why are Vermont and •”' r taaaiieal co-laborers in the it m-slaveholding ''■-■.■ Mien* in reference to ».i~h movements as ,J a"! the Ma-sa -husetts Aid Society? Though -i-atiy hundred miles distant from Kansas, they p' K control her destiny by pouring into her - ' ters their hordes of hired emigrants; and it is stl considered legitimate and right; but when the ee -l • oi Missouri just, a the border of the scene 1 s o m, having the most vital interest on the ■Ju.ieei. indicate solicitude to protect the hona fide - ■ , ■!■- oi Kansas against these eastern intruders, I'. 1 ' 1 ''Dedicate, as a matter of self-preservation the - cat principle ot the Kausas-Nebraska Act, they gravely charged, by solemn legislative re • J ui' ' ur *hi«'i\i! invasion and illegal and inle viotuuou of the rights of the elective fran .

Hence the importance, not only to the South, but to | the entire Union, that the legitimate operation of j the Kansas Act, should not be thwarted by exter nal influence from any quarter. If opens the Ter ritory to all the citizens of the United States, se cures to them therein the right of self-govem i ment, and to adopt or reject slavery in the forma , tion of their State Constitution. While there fore, the South will not interfere improperly, and | I s prepared to acquiesce in the final decision of the bona fide settlers of Kansas on the subject of slavery, they will not tolerate fanatical efforts to mould its institutions, and will and ought to rally j to the support of the people of Missouri in pro tecting them in the free and unrestrained exercise of their rights, under the law of their territorial organization. If you think proper to make any i response to the resolutions of Vermont, this should be distinctly announced without the fervor of pas sion, but with the firmness and dignity of unalter , able purpose. The doctrines of political principle involved in the preamble and resolutions under consideration are as erroneous as their allegations of fact are un true. They take it for granted that Congress may rightfully take jurisdiction of the question of slave ry in the Territories of the l nited State-, and is bound to exercise it as to exclude therefrom citi zens of the slaveholding States with their proper ty. No such authority is found in the Constitu j tion ; it is totally at war with the theory of our system of Government; it ignores the sovereignty and equality of the States. Ti> these doctrines I Georgia can never subscribe. Their practical en forcement will lead to dissolution, if resisted, and :if submit)ad to, the degradation of one half of the members of the Federal Union. It were ease, if necessary, to demonstrate the fallacy of these doe 1 trines, but it i- idle to reason with fanaticism, and sound constitutional men every where are already convinced. Let us await the future in dignified patience, but resolved to meet aggression as be comes freemen, t should not have indulged in such elaborate comment upon the preamble and resolutions of Vermont, but for the fact that ox | isting circumstances give them a point and sfgnifi- ; canoe which it is impossible to disregard. It is obvious that the fate of Kansas is the paramount question of the day, and that upon its satisfactory adjustment is probably suspended the safety of the slaveholding States, and the continuance of the Federal Union. Whether we look at the actual condition of af fairs in that Territory, or in the Congress of the United States, now in session, we find much to awaken the apprehension of patriots in every por tion of our country. In Washington, a spectacle is presented which is disreputable to the character of our Government as it is evincive of the deep seated and organized hostility to the Constitu tional rights of the South. During several weeks the House of Representatives iias been engaged in a fruitless effort to organize itself for the transac tion of its appropriate business. The minority, with a firmness and unanimity honorable to patri ! ots, are seeking to effect art organization upon the ; principles of the Kansas-Nebraska act; whilst the , majority, with a pertinacity worthy of a better i cause, seem to be resolved upon no organization ! rather than the recognition of those principles, i The triumph of the latter is prevented by the want of harmony among themselves, thev i excepting a few Southern men) differing only as to the extent to which they are willing to go, in assailing the i rights of the South, as involved in the Kansu--Ne braska act. For all practical purposes, the Gov ernment is at an end, and must continue, during the existence of this sectional strife in the Repre sentative Hall of Congress. What will be the re sult? no pre-science can predict; lmt. that it is dis astrous to the brotherhood between tl.« States, that it weakens the Constitutional bonds of our Union and augments the tendency to array section against section, cannot he denied. In this state of things, it behooves the State of Georgia, as an integral portion of the South, to do whatever she can to arrest the tide of aggression; or failing to do that, ■ to place herself in the safest attitude of self-pres ervation It may be, and I trust that such will be the result, that the Union of the sound Constitu tional men of all sections, of which there are grat ifying indications, may prove strong enough, ulti mately, to arrest the machinations of fanaticism, . and save the Union from the storm which now darkens our political horizon. But it i» vain to ex- ' pect that our assailant- will voluntarily relent their purpose or relax their efforts for our destruction. ; They will either conquer the friends of the Consti tution and the Union, or they must be conquered. In the latter result, the rights of the South will be : maintained; but in the event of the former, the South must take care of herself. Such is the aw- ■ ful issue which is now distinctly presented to the country. Whilst you should studiously avoid all rashness either in expression or action, you will bo ; disloyal to the great law of self-protection, if you ; should fail to adopt such measures of legislation as may be best calculated to avert impending ca lamities, if they may be, and if not, to protect the State against their ruinous consequences. Geor gia took her position on this momentous issue, in her Convention of 1850. In the fourth resolution of that bodv, she solemnly announced that she would “resist even us a last resort) to tlic disrup tion of every tie that binds her to the Union,’’ the acts of aggression therein enumerated. But the Convention did not designate the time and mode of resistance, but left it lor a future Convention to determine. But such a Convention cannot be as -entitled without legislative authority. 1 therefore respectfully renew the recommendation contained in my message to the General Assembly at the commencement of your session, that you pass an act authorizing the Governor, upon the happening of any of the contingencies specified in the fourth resolution of the Convention of 1850, to call a Convention to consider and determine the turn and mode of resistance thereby contemplated. Should such contingency never arise, the legi- lu ture can do no harm; if it should, it will be no ticed, in advance, to our assailants; will throw upon them the i\ -p-.msihility of consequences and justify tin State in the estimation of mankind. The signs of the times are portentous; it rests with you, calmly and firmly, to place the State in the best attitude to breast the swelling storm. Herschki. V. Johnson. From the Southern Medical Journal, for February. The JJearded Woman am! Child YV e have recently had an opportunity of seeing these interesting freaks of nature, during their so journ in this city. Mrs. Clofullia, the per-on in ques tion, was born m Switzerland, in 1-20, and is, there fore, now about seven and twenty years of age. We are informed, by the printed narrative of her life, that her parents presented nothing peculiar in their appearance, andthai her father laid rather a scanty heard; but- that her maternal grandfather had a very strong heard, and was quite hairy ; that she was observed soon after her birth, to have the body and face covered with a down; that this gradually in creased, so that her beard was two inches long m eight years of age ; and that at the age of fourteen it had attained its present length of about file in ches. Site is of ordinary stature, rather stoutly built, has a masculine face, .said to l> ■ very much like that of her grandfather: a well formed female chest, large mammae, and feminine shoulders and arms covered with as much hair as seen in strongly bearded men. Her heard is line and soft, though vei i abundant, extending from the ear- and the ma lar bones, over the whole of the lower jaw down to the neck, as in man, hut the upper lip presents only a downy appearance, such as is occasionally met ! with in brunettes, In short, with the exception of the upper lip, she has us strong a beard as wv usuallv see in man. Married early in 1851, she gave birth in December o! the same, vear to a daughter, in England, as is attested by Hv Tints Cornelius, M.R.C.S., who attended her in her con finement. This child is said to have died, during the process of dentition, but to have been very handsome, and to have had no more hair than ordinary children. Her second child is attested by 0. H, Deau and J. B. Evans, surgeons of Oxford, England, her accoucheurs, to have been born in December, 1852, and is the one who now accompanies her, under the name of Albert Esau. He is quite a sprightly boy, mow three years of age, i with a coat of hair over the bodv anil limbs, especially over the shoulders and back, and a f beard about an inch in length Covering the face, as described in the case of his mother, whom he ' strongly resembles. During a judicial investigation in New York, ■ provoked by a person who alleged that he had 1 been cheated out “t Ins fee of admission to Bar : mini's museum, inasmuch as he believed the beard ded woman to be a man in disguise, Mrs, (.’. was ex i amined bv firs. \ alentine Mott, Johti W. Francis, and Alex.’ B. Mott, who certify that she is a well ■ formed female. - Mrs. C. and her child are unquestionalv genuine ajjd most interesting specimen- of anomalous hir ; sate development, and this is our apology forplac ; ing their history upon record. ■ * ■■ ' ■' ■ 1 ' REBARS, SEGAKS.

The announcement in the Times that Russia had unconditionally accepted the proposals of Austria, caused great excitement, hut on the succeeding day the Government officially announced that Rus sia had only accepted them as a basis of negotia tions. This had the effect of diminishing the con- j fidence of the public in regard to an early peace, and the impression prevailed in some quarters that . Ru—ia had merely accepted, in order to prolong negotiations and gain time. There was nothing important from the Crimea. Still further by the Arabia. Halifax, Feb. 1. — The following is a statement of all the circumstances connected with Russia’s acceptance of the Austrian proposals: When Prince E-i krhazy arrived in St. Petersburg, ho pre sented the proposals of Austria to Nesselrode, with the remark, that he was not authorized to en ter into any discussion, and that if the terms were not unconditionally accepted before the 18th, the Austrian Embassy would leave St. Petersburg. To prevent this. Count Nesselrode communicated with Vienna, direct - Prince Gortschakoi-'f, at j Vienna, had a talk with Count Bror., and pro duced a memorandum, expressing in general terms Russia’s willingness to negotiate, but pro posing alterations in the terms. The matter was referred, by Austria, to the Western Powers, who replied, that they saw no reason to change their decision, and insisted upon Russia’s unconditional acceptance of the proposed terms. Russia was then informed, that unless she accepted these terms, the Austrian Legation would leave Sr. Pe tersburg, and Austria would immediately seek to obtain the co-operation of ihe other German Pow- j ers. This state of affairs had created great excite ment, particularly as the Russian Embassy had been ordered to leave Vienna; but on the 16th, the announcement was made, that Russia had ac cepted the terms as a ba-is of negotiations.
