THE MIRROR Saturday, Jan. 4, l£4Q. For President. GEORGE M. TROUP. State Rights Ticket FOR SHERIFF NATHAN CLIFTON. CLERK SUPERIOR COL’RT MARM-ADUKE GRESHAM. CLERK INFERIOR COURT H. DENNARD. TAX COLLECTOR LEWIS WILLIAMS. RECEIVER TAX RETURNS WM. A. BELL. CORONER .Tamils jones. We arc indebied to our worthy Represen jntives. the Hun. Mark A. Cooper and the lion. Lott Warren, each, lor a copy of the President's Message- THE MESSAGE !! ! - This long looked for document has at length been received ; too late, however, lor insertion irt this week’s paper. Next week «>ur readers shall have it. good or bad, or as much as we c:tu rind room for. The House of Representatives has refus ed, by a vote of 110 to 112, to swear the New Jersey delegation, holding the certifi cate of the Governor, as members of the 20 th Congress. Thus have the Van Burett patty given anot!t'*r evidence of their reck less disregard of the Constitution and the law;s. •« The Columbus papers state that a rumor is afloat in that city, that the stock of the Ilawkin.iville 15 ink has been purchased by a company in Alabama. John It. Bays, convicted of the murder of his wife at the last Superior Court in Troup comity, has been pardoned by the Legisla ture. The river having risen considetably du ring the past week, sevral steamboats have been enabled to reach our wharves, laden with goods for onr merchants. The market is now supplied and those dtsirous of pur chasing can hove an opportunity by coming to town. Tile river, we learn, is again on the'tlecline. S vile calumniating driveller has made his no tearance in the columns of the Fed i". and Union, in an attempt to ridicule the pio pnsition to e’ose ihe Florida War. publish ed in onr paper a few weeks ago. So far as his remarks in relation to the size of the Mirror, are concerned, we care nothing, hav ing no other feeling than that of other con tempt for the insignificant and pitiful effort at slanderous wit. The innendoes, however pat forth in relition to the brave and meri torious odicar whoso name was coupled with th it proposition, jjro as shamefully false as they are hast and ungenerous ; and we would infer n their author that it would be an un healthy undertaking for him to exhibit his person in this commit! ity, where Coh J’s vr'uabl ■ services are known and appreciated, and hold the same language he anonymous ly uses through the Federal Union. We would be mistaken if he did not receive for 11 is pains a feathery coat, and give our citi ~ zenslhc smrisfaetinn of seeing a Rail Retie hi successful operation through Centrestreet. Our'ln-t Legislature is said to have com bined more wisdom, talent, and integrity' than any other Legislative body that ever met in Georgia, The splendid abilities of Col. Stephen D. CkaSk, of Lumpkin, shone eon-pit nous amid the blaze of intel lect elicited by the several highly exciting topics of legislation, and placed him in the eminent position of leader of the majority. Ilcand old Billy Springer, sometimes call ed the “Great Western,” are undoubtedly the two biggest men in Georgia. The one remarkable for his transcendency of mind, the other for his symmetry of person. Well may the Van B men parly in this State be proud of such leaders. The sensual por tionof them, and those who look upon per sonal grace and a winning address as the ne plus ultra of human greatness, may find am ple reasons for enlisting under Mr. Sprin ger’s banner; while those who bow at the shrine of genius, and acknowledge its influ ence over their souls, may attach themselves to the train of Col. S. Douelass Crane. No wonder the State Rights flag is not al" ways triumphant, when it is opposed by so powerful a union of mind and matter as these two popular leaders exhibit. ' TAXES, The taxable property of the Sta*e o( Georgia is estimated at two hundred and twenty-five mitlions of dollars. '1 he sys tem of taxation now in vogue, bears very un equally upon the holders of property, some paying at least, four times as much as oth ers, for the same descrintion of propertv In Kentucky, the taxable property of the State is valued at two hundred and seventy millions of dollars. The rate of tax is equa ble. being ten cents upon every hundred dol lars. In Indiana the rate of tax is thirty cents Upon the hundred, and in Ohio it is fifty Vepts ujiqu every hundred dollars,’ GEN. HARRISON *s, MARTIN VAN BURES. These two distinguished individuals are the opposing candidates for the Presidency. The former is the nominee of the Federal Whigs, the latter the appointed ruler of the Federal Collar men. We say distinguished, and it may not be amiss to show how each deserves the appellation. Gen. Harrison then is distinguished on account of his bravery and military skill a 1 the Thames, and other battle fields, when he was fighting for the ho-:or of the American flag, and in defence of American liberty.— He is distinguished for his ardent attach ment to the Anti-slavery cause ; for liis Fed eral principles, and his consistent advocacy of them; for his uniform opposition to the “powers that be;” and for the unexpected encouragement lie met with at the last Pre sidential election to run a second time. Martin Vanßurenlias more distinguish ing traits than liis opponent. lie lias been more upon the public boards; and his skill innecromancy mnde'him the “observed of all observers.” He is distin guished for the accuracy with which he “treads in the footsteps of his iilustriou* predecessor,” in walking over the’ruins of broken Constitution, lie is distinguished as a political weathercock, veering with eve. ry breeze of popular favor, and consistently pointing towards that quarter of th*' compass whence blows the strongest current. IJe is distinguished for bis opposition to Mr. Mad ison and the list war with England ; for bis opposition to the reception of Missouri into the-Unipn on account of her being a slave State; for having declaied that Congress possesses the constitutional power to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia; for keeping up the war which Hen. Jackson commenced against the credit of the coun. try. In short, he is distinguished, like his competitor, for his Federal principles and his advocacy of a thousand pernicious doc trines, either one of which ought to destroy his prospects of success, and drive every true hearted Southerner from his support. To neither of these distinguished candi dates therefore, can we lend our aid ; so long as wc entertain a principle of our own, we mean to struggle for its success, and nev er will be found deserting the standard which bears for its motto the words of the immor tal Jefferson, “that each State has a right to judge for itself, as w ell of the mode as if the measure of redress*” We know no dif ference between Harrison and Van Huron. They are both enemies to the rights of the States, one being as dangerous a foe to the South as the other; how then, can w» choose between them ? We are sick of the talk a bout a “choice of evils;'’ We will not do a certain evil for the sake of an uncertain good; we will not he compelled to do that which nur souls abhor. because wc cannot be exactly suited to our mind. Thank God we have enough of independence est to say we will not sup port an enemy of our faith, for the high and responsible office of President. We are not content to be “hewers of wood am! drawers of water,” for our Northern hicth ren; wefeel that we have equal rights, and that those rights demand our care and at tention. When shall our vassalage he bro ken up? Not until we shall have fought the battles of the Constitution, and woo lor ourselves the in lependence to vote for a President who will protect the sovereignty of the S ates. To this end we shall keep the flag of our beloved Troup koisted at our mast head, nor shall it be struck to any other which floats hi a different cause, In supporting him our conscience is “void of offence,” for it is with a consciousness that we are sub serving the best interests of our conntiy,— And if the Union is to be ru'edby a Federal ist and an Abolitionist, as we believe both the present candidates to be, we intend tha t our skirts shall be. clear of the sin of helping to throw lire countiv into such hands. So, |e t others do as they may, we shall still cleavo to the ’doctrines of the Constitution, and (support GEORGE M. TROUP as the practical friend of those doctrines. William J. Davis, Marshal of the District of Georgia, has appointed Matthew Wright Esq. to take the census of this county. James L. Ross for Randolph; IlughM D King for Sumter; Benjamin F Cook fo r Lee; and Hudson B Tabor for Baker. During the distribution of the Northern mail at this place on Tuesday last, w e caught a glimpse at a little paper bearing tlie cog nomon of “Fool Killer,” making its way to Irwinton to execute its fell purpose upon our neighbor the “Nepenthes.” Judging from its title we think our friend at Irwinton in rather a shy way. One thousand aud eight hogs were driven to this marker during the present season, by a Pig\_g~\ ! Only think of that. Poor & Proud is the name of a commer cial house in one of the Atlantic cities. Ra ther an unfortunate connection, we should think, considering that pride aud poverty are the two worst bestowments a poor wight can be afflicted with.

Gar land to be Clerk of the House, anil of Rod erick Dorsey to be "Sergeant-at-Arms. ft has been more than once stated in the Globe that the New Jersey Members, whose seats have been refused to them by the House of Representatives, are abolitionists. We are requested by a citizen of New Jersey, who is now in this city, to state, that this in timation is false, and must be koowu to be so by those who make it inasmuch as the Journals of the last Cengress snow rlia. these.gentlemen voted against what Is Called abolitionism, on all occasions, io all its va-, forms.— Nat- STATE RIGHTS MEETING.
