It is with au unusual degree of pleasure we state to the public that our citizens have taken up the subject of the Bridge in the right way, aud entered into ihe mutter in stich a maimer as tells to all we trill have a 11 ridge. Without tai ling together a large concourse of citizeus, or haranguing the public oil tho actual necessity of such a work, a subscription list was simply open ed m one ot our stores last W eduesday evening, when, in less than fifteen minutes stock, to the amount of Fifteen thousand a/u/ffiy Dollars, was subscribed. This is well done, and with but lit tle or no exertion the balance necessary for the budding ot tlie Brid e (say $10,000) may shortly be obtained. Y. r e hope that those who have com menced so nobly may “persevere unto tlie end,” and there is no sort oi' doubt but iu a verv short time we will have a Bridge. THE SABBATH SCHOOL. Agreeably to appointment a large number of the citizens of our town assembled at the church last Sabbath aud formed themselves into a Sunday School Association. We are happy to see that this matter has been taken hold of with that zeal and determination on the part of our citizens so worthy a cause demands. The necessary committees were appointed for the regular formation ot the Society, when the nice ling ad journed to meet again on Wednesday evening fol lowing to receive the reports of the several Com mittees. They assembled again on Wednesday, adopted a Constitution aud Bye-Laws for the fu ture govenime*:.' of the Society; and then procee ded to the election of officers, as fallows : Col. Z.

Our \ au Huron friends are very much taken on the suoject o! the next Presidency, aud manifest au uneasiness and restlessness abirtSC the matter plainly indicative that their prospects are bad and that their loud hopes of j over and place begin to disappear 1.1.0 tl.c mitt ot the morning before the rising sun. They are now preparing for a desperate effort, and it seems to be tlie intention of the party in this .State to have the p/ople of Georgia elas'j Mr. Van . Buien to tneir aims whether they tiro willin ,T or not. No means will l>e lett untried, no exertions Spared to effect this, with their, desirable end, ana consequently tuese who w.d neither be coax 'd or coerced must, if possib’.e, be frightened into their measures and the sur.port of their favorite. Iti order to efieet this they I;aid up to tlie public gaze Messrs. Clay, Webster and Harrison in the most unenviable light, and then assert that the -State Rights rarty of the South will give one or • h-’ other of them their support. llow they can have tho unblushing effrontery to make such a declaration we are unable to account. We ask you. ye wise men of Georgia, from whence do you derive your information ? llow do you know the State Rights party of the South will give their support to either of these men? Upon what grounds do you base your assertions ? Clay, Webster and Harrison believe with you as to the unlimited powers of the General Government; upon the main point of difference which is the di viding line between State Rights and Union men they side with tlieTatter, and on the main prin ciple which actuates the State Rights party they are as far front the feelings of that party as tlie East is from the West or Federalism from Republican ism. How then can the Union party believe we will support a man for the Presidency whose o piniuns, doctrines aud measures are so directly in opposition to ours. True it is, we agree with them in their opposition to the corruptions which have crept into the General Government, and no further; and that is the only barrier between them and tli Union party—tho one opposes, while the other upholds the corruptions of our rulers. The State Rights party conceive their is suffi cient time to consider upon this matter; time THE GEORGIA UlßltOli. brings about many changes, aud the' man who may be brought forward now might at some future day prove unworthy oar confidence and support. Our opponents however may rest assured that when the hour for action arrives, the State Righ r s party of the South will speak in a voic? which will east a damper over tin *r feeljngs th it may not be very easily thrown oil—nor will that voice be heard in favor of Clay, Webster or Harrison. HARRIS RESOLUTIONS AGAIN. We give to day the feeble, attempt at vindication by tlie “Author of the Resolutions” passed by a meeting of the Van Burcn party on the oth ult. written for the purpose of screening himself and those who acted with him from the just indigna tion and contempt that these infamous resolutions have brought down upon them frotnau injured and insulted people. J his proves conclusively to our minds that the famous author has been forced to make this effort at justification not alone by the rebuke which has been poured upon these resolutions by the State Rights party, but that the more intelligent and liberal of his own party have frowned upon them as unbecoming, ungenerous and untrue, for we feel confident that the language held forth at that meeting never could be recognized by auv men or set of men who have a proper regard for their own interests and the feelings of their fellow-citi zens. But tho author must either have lost his senses, or he never had any, or else must believe the peo ple ol Georgia entirely unacquainted with the lan guage ol their mother tongue, if he expects to make them believe any other construction of these resolutions thau they first received, and which every man possessed of the least particle of com mon sense would unhesitatingly give to them.— It is as plain as two and two make four, that there was an attempt to identify all those opposed to the present “Administration of tlie General. Govern ernment” as Abolitionists, and in fact it was so asserted, and the language can bear no other con struction, the declarations of the Author to the eoijtrary notwithstanding. If, however tlie Author wishes to get out of the difficulty into which he has plunged himself, we see but one course for him to pursue likely to prove successful, and that is let hint come out aud acknowledge to the world that he lias done injus tice to those in the South opposed to the present Administration of the General Government, aud that (he language held forth in the Resolutions referred to is untrue, aud his confessions we doubt not, will be willingly received aud lie freely for given. The Author says, “it was the aim of our meet ing and tiie object of oar resolutions to unite and concentrate the Voice of the whole people,” on the subject of Abolitionism. A powerful attempt, truly, to “unite and concentrate" the strengtli of the t?olith, to denounce a portion of her citizeus as aiding directly or indirectly to the advancement of Abolitionism. This is concentrating the strength of the SouF a vengeance. We should be united in opjH ' diOu to the nefa rious schemes of the Abolitionists. r J 1 1C whole South should rise up in the panoply of herpc ' vei 'i and be ready to buckle on her armor whenever oc casion shall require it. And we feel as much con vinced of the fact as we are of any thing which has not come inung'liately under our knowledge, that if tlie Van Boren party of the South will stand side by side with the State Rights party all the Combined powers of Abolitionism would never be able to shake tlie fabric of pur liberties; they would defy all the mad fanaticism of John (Quincy Adams and Arthur Tappan, together with the vile slanders of Knapp and Garrison, and make them quail and tremble before the determined spirts of a p.eople determined to maintain their lights and Vheir liberties. We have, perhaps taken more notice of the Author of the Harris resolutions, thiu the case demands, but we have been impelled forward by the reflection that a certain class ol tlie Van Biiren par ty are in the habit of making the slanderous accu sation against us of aiding and assisting the Aboli tionists. It was first asserted by Mr. Cuthbert, some few years back while editor of the Federal Union, and followed up occasionally since, by oth ers of the same fry, but invariably have they been compelled, like the celebrated Author, to shrink from the indignation aud contempt cf an insulted people, and endeavor to plaster the matter over, to allay the excitement created tv their foul slan ders. We would call tlie attention of oar readers to tlie proceedings of a meeting of the friends of State Rights held in Harris to consider upon the Resolutions of the Van Buren party alluded to. — They will no doubt meet with a hearty response from tho breast of every lover of his country, and the lofty tone of their language he admired and applauded. foh the oFormia nitirou. Messrs Kditurs —Among other resolutions that were passed on the sth April by the Republican Union party of Harris county, we were sorry to notice the following: “Resolved, That- modern i Vhigism is a fraud coalition o (Federalism and Abolitionism —the for mer at war wi.li tire Constitution, and a foe to the best interests of the country; tiie latter a mocke ry of Religion, a burlesque upon philanthropy, and a disgrace to humanity ; and that these axe the elements combined for the overthrow of the great Republican doctrines advocated by the present Ad ministration. “Resolved, That those who oppose the Repub lican doctrines of the present Administration, are either dirt-My or indirectly giving countenance and support to the several factious which consti tute modern udtigism." We are un:i' !e to say which should most excite our surprise or our indignation; that in Harris county there sh uld b»xound so unblushing a knave, who fearless of personal cousequences. would dare to oiler such a malicious slander a gam t Ins neighbors and fellow-citizens; or that lucre could be found in any part of Georgia ten sober white men who could lor a moment listen to such palpable falsehoods without bringing him to a summary account. In all our political discussions we have ever been careful not to bring so unreasonable and so foul a charge uaainst our pohlicai opponents of our own State. From the time of the first public avowal oi the hellish views of the Northern fanatics, as v e fondly hoped, so have we sincerely believed, that no title Georgian. Union or State Rights man, Whiar, Democrat, Republican, or bv whatever name he might choose to be known, would, for a moment entertain the most distant idea of aiding and assisting in propagating their diabolical de signs—designs, which, if once attempted forcibly to be executed must bring about a separation of the Union of these States. Reflecting on the unutterable woe that would fall upon our devoted country in the event of a civil war, we can scarce bring to ohr command words sufficiently strong to express our utter con tempt and detestation of a set of men who mani fest such wanton and reckless disregard to truth and justice, and who, from well deserved obscurity desiieto bring themselves into ignoble notoriety by endeavoring to throw dissensions among us oil so vita! a question, iu which, if our enemies suc ceed, must inevitably cause bloodshed, and spread devastation and ruin o’er the land. Concerning the man Ingram we know nothin", and now care less, but as for Col. Crews, though knowing him to boa political opponent yet never would we have suspected him of advocating such notorious falsehoods. Unless we are wrongly informed, the Colonel not long since very wittily remarked, “if I choose t" enjoy myself whose businiss is it? ” Nobody’s, Col. provided you do not infringe upon the rights an J privileges ol' others. STATE RIGHTS. FOR THE GEORGIA MIRROR. WHAT IS TO BE DONE? This is the inquiry-made by many people. I have been traveling through the country consider ably for the last six months, and almost every where 1 haves seen two gentlemen rapidly going through th<* country, very often together, and pav ing particular respect to three-fourths of the peo ple’s business. Seeing them so often, and always so busy in other men’s matters, I was induced to find out their names and place of residence, their general occupation I had seen, when 1 was very formally introduced to both these gentlemen.— The name of one was Oppression, and the name ot the other Ilardtimes. The physiognomy of both are v ery unfavorable—that of the former is froward, haughty, impertinent aud selfish; ami that of the latter is lean, swarthy, pale, meagre, ill-featured ami bad fated. In conversation I find! Mr. Oppression to be very fluent, rather insulting and al‘ igethcr self-conceited, which led me tr> seek for h ; s origin, and becoming well acquainted wiih h in he told me of his parents’ affinity, and of livuiy of h’s rcHtivos and particular friends. Af ter a cios** interrogation rs to hi.- parents h:s an swers were not altogether satisfactory, he well knew his mother and many of her relations, but he war not at all able to identify his father, there fore 1 put him down in my memorandum book as mi illegitimate, if not, 11is father must be of ancient ori in, and known in the Hebrew tongue bv the name of Aba Id in. His mother I know to bean un chaste, inc millions, bad and fickle, woman, her name ia Specnl. tioii. Sh- is in the common prac tice of cohabiting a;: 1 purloining with all classes, ranks and conditions of men, Governments, bodies corporate or politic, and neither -State tror Church has escaped h -r miserable and corrupting infatua tion. Great God? what a world of misery she has upon man iu his brief passage through life. Mr. Oppression is very nearly connected with a certain class of gentry in our country, whose business it is to loan him their cash for the avowed purpose of making the rich richer, and the poor poorer, and smooth this off in the way of accommodation, by exacting usury at an enormous rate—from 1(> to 50 per cent, on their ban:: rags, that they use for the very diaboli cal purpose of aiding Oppression in our land and nation. This is an odious system of speculation. Usury is strictly forbidden by the Holy ScriptCM'es, if usury is a breach of one point of tlie law the of fender is guilty of the whole law, and if every of ll uder meets with a “just recuittpence of reward,” how shall those usurious persons escape a just in dignation ? Verily the centre prison in hell w ill be their eternal portion. This same woman Speculation, has purloined with the Government of these United Slates, also with the United States’ Bank and with almost ev ery State and every Bank in the world, and all merchants, traders, adventurers, and in fine with every body, almost so much so that old General Jackson, in his lute administration, become so jealous of her because he, m his dotage, believed that she hived Mr. Biddieand tlie U. S. Bank bet ter than him and his Administration, raised a great row about it, and abused the old woman very much and finally swore he would kick her out of vlie Republic, and begged all his friends not to charge themselves with the affair, but consider the mea sure entirely his own experiment, and he would “take the responsibility.” The President also affirmed that there were a certain class of men in tlie country connected with this same Speculation, about whom he was so mor tified ; that they were poorand pennyless, and but for the iufiuenccof Biddieand his Banking insti tutions, could not obtain credit, such lie declared “ought to break," although they, no doubt, were aiming to make a living and property as honestly, or more so, than the venerable President himself or any of his Loco Focos. Tho Experiment has failed, and now what is the consequence? The debts due the Government must be paid to its agents in specie, and the people of the Government for their dues mu.it take in payment worse than Bank rags— Treasury Notes. And these very Government Agents and Officers, after wringing the last cent out of tho citizens in specie that the Government and her agents have any claim to, turn about and sell this specie at a heavy premium to make up their returns to Gov ernment in these infernal Treasury drafts. So much for General Jackson’s Experiment, and so much for his “Responsibility.” Speculation is of too long standing and of too ancient origin for Gen. Jackson and all his coad jutors to put down even if he had been sincere in his Experiment and Responsibility, which no ho nest man believes he was, when they see the train of circumstances that has followed in turn at the j very heels of the measure. Every candid man | knows his aim was power, to make his will sove-. teigti in all future administrations of the Republic. The Experiment, instead of a blessing, has proved a cu.se on our laud r.ud nation. It has given rise to speculations u;»Cii the vital prosperijy and life of the nation, such a-- were uever known to these U niied States from their earliest s ttlemenfs as Bri tish colonies down to the end of the sixtieth con stitutional American Administration. At the heel of such measures come those two gentlemen just spoken of, and r.owouderso many people get ac quainted with them. Mr. Oppression declares himself openly a near kinsman to the pre sent Administration, anu Mr. Ilardtimes is his im mediate successor as a matter of course. "Now, fellow-citizens if you are reallv sick of such com pany as those two gentlemen,T u 7 iU frankly give you my views how to get clear of tltem right de cently. In the first place Speculation has its le gitimate sphere, and instead of using your surplus cash for the diabolical purpose of shaving your noor neighbor in want out of his hard earnings, with your money, buy Bank Stock, associate vour s -lvos iu a common corporate body, make your Bank paper punctual, sound and good, and operate on it, and tiie country at large will be benelifted. You will always have enough of applications fir your facilities and those applicants will gc.n rally be solvent, persevering business men, who, bv your accommodation to th-ui will he able to giv e the poor man a better price for liis labor to his and his families great benefit; the industrious me chanic is rewarded and encouraged : and the plan ter, rich or poor, is able to get a better price for his surplus produce; business of every kiud, is more easy and free, and if your capital invested does not yield so large a clear profit, you will have the great consolation of knowing you have not robbed the peer; then are no wife and children crying with hunger and cold because the bailiflfor sheriff has driven to auction their last cow or only bed, or their prospects for life and living to pay your execution, only to bloat your lordly purse, or clothe your family in gaudy attire. But you will have the sweet recollection that you have aid ed some worthy, enterprising and industrious man in his business, to his benefit, aud a blessing to tins industrious every where, and yourself handsomely profited. This I consider one of b’ legitimate spheres of speculation, and such an one ns is beneficial to tlie community. Let all this whim and farce a bout a hard currency cease, because Banknotes are more convenient than specie, easier carrii d* transported without loss or co it, and when confi dence is not shaken in the Bank tiie Bank can'al ways afford a plenty of specie to furnish the coun try with plenty of change, and this wiii of itself exclude those litth* shin plaster.', from circulation. Therefore let the work now begin, lay the founda tion aright, take up your Bank .stock, begin opera tions as soon as possible, aud you have nothing to fi ar in bringing relief to the country or a portion of it, at least around you, Locate your Bank at Florence and mui are surrounded by the wealthy a>:<] industrious of a rich aud grow ing eduutry sit uated on q good and navigable liver aud r.t a con siderable mast of trade and commerce. Lay down your little party ilivisa.ns about location and go ahead with your Bank and tlie people' of this com munity willstand up to you like brothers and ha:l the days of your operations as the signs of better times.
