that the proposed- armistice came from
France, which indicates good intention,—
moderation, or exhibits the necessities of
the French.- The Times does not believe
that it was dictated by the necessities of
France.
The armistice lias caused much favora
ble excitement. Consols at London ad
vanced from one and a half to two per
cent—the Paris Bourse advanced two and
half—and other Bourses advanced materi

Peace has been made between France and
Austria, as will be seen by the following
letter from Louis Napoleon to Empress Eu
genie :
“Vallegio, July 11.—Peace has been
signed between the Emperor of Austria
and myself, on the following basis—an
Italian confederacy, to be under the hon
orary Presidency of the Pope—the Empe
ror of Austria concedes all his rights in
separation. And, sir, I am free to declare,
herein the Senate, that whenever such an
event shall occur, for one J shall he for
disunion, and shall, if alive, exert all the
powers I may have in urging upon the
people of my State the necessity and pro
priety of an immediate separation.
This I deliberately said on the floor of
the Senate in the face of our enemies—this
I deliberately say here to-day in the pres
ence of friends and neighbors. I should
consider such an event fraught with the
greatest danger to Southern institutions,
and I would not wait for the development
of its results. I would nip the danger in
the bud, and take immediate steps to unite
the South in a movement which should
end either in safety within the Union or
safety out of it A movement towards
separation even by a single State, would
bring the Northern people to their senses
il anything could open their ears and
hearts to the voice of reason and justice.
The North does not believe that the South
will dissolve the Union for any cause, and
that they may push their fanatical schemes
upon us with impunity. Convince them
that the South is in earnest, by an impos-
Sardinia. The Emperor of Austria pre
serves Venice, but she will form an inte
gral part of the Italian confederation.”

leaps.” The Union is far more necessary,
useful and important to them than to us,
and they know it. They’ would not pro
bably drive us to the alternative of sepa
ration, if they’ were advised and believed
that such would be the result of their hos
tile demonstrations against slavery and the
rights of the Southern people. In 1850,
when a movement towards secession was
made in Georgia and a few of the neigh
boring States, and there seemed to be some
danger of extreme measures, the Northern
mind began to recoil—the Northern pa
pers, for the first time since the Union
was formed, began to calculate its value
and to urge the danger and impolicy of
driving the South to extremities. Meet
ings of the people were Jicld and safety
committees were formed to rebuke anti-
slavery agitation and suppress the power
of the abolitionists, and if the South had
acted with spirit and manliness then, the
whole subject would have been settled at
once and forever, by’ such Constitutional
guarantees ns would have placed our rights
and our safety upon a sure and lasting ba-
votes, which, however, dared not exhibit
itself updn taking a scale vote, I condemn
and protest agafrist the action of the Con
vention.
Fjrsb Because it is in open violation
of the' long established Democratic usage,
to which the Convention pledged itself, by
resolution to conform. The usage which
I refer is, that the nomination should be
made by ballot, and should require two-
thirds of all the rotes east, to make a
nomination. Tested then, by this time-
honored usage, adopted to secure the har
mony and promote the security and suc
cess of the Democracy, the Convention
made no nomination; no man having
received upon any ballot, two-thirds of
all the votes cast. Then according to
Democratic usage adopted by the Con
vention itself as the law of its action,
there is no candidate before the people,
entitled to receive the suffrages of .the
Democratic party as their regular nomi
nee.
Secondly. Because Col. Underwood is
well known to have been bitterly opposed
to the re-election of Gov. Brown, and hos
tile to the administration of James Buchan
an, up to the hour when the Convention
assembled, as evinced by his declarations
repeatedly made both publicly and pri
vately.
Thirdly. Becauce I am unwilling to
loan myself to the support of any man,
even if he were a Democrat, who procures
a nomination through corrupt influences
and by deception practiced upon mem-

gates were present, representing fifty-eight

The list of delegates being completed
and corrected, on motion of C. Peeples,
Esq., of Monroe, a committee of one from
each Cengresssional District was appoin
ted by the Chair to report the names of
permanent officers for the convention.
The committee retired and soon after
returned the names of the following gen
tlemen as permanent officers of the con-
vention:
Hon. David A. Reese, of Jasper, Presi
dent.
Hon. G. E. Thomas, of Muscogee, 1st
Vice President.
L. C. Dunlap, of Gwinnett, 2d Vice
President And the same Secretaries.
On motion the report of the Committee
was received and adopted.
The president on taking the chair ex
plained the object of the convention in a
few pertinent and eloquent remarks.
On motion of P. W. Alexander, Esq.,
of Upson, a committee of three from each
Congressional district was appointed to
prepare business for the action of the Con
vention.
[An amendment here offered by Chas,
P. Crawford, of Lee, that this committee
be selected by the delegation oi each dis
trict, was lost]
On motion,- the Convention then ad
journed to four o’clock, P. M.
Afternoon Session.—The Convention
met at four P. M., but the committee not
here of the nominating body, as to his being ready to report, asked for further
looking for National honors, apd who,
from interest or fear, were willing to sac
rifice our rights “ to preserve a Union”
from which they expected so many person
al advantages.
Fellow-citizens, if the people of the South
would preserve their rights in the Union,
or obtain their independence out of it, they
must take the subject into their own hands
—speak out their sentiments with a bold
ness that becomes freemen and teach pol
iticians the salutary lesson, that “he who
dallies is a dastard, and he who doubts is
damned.” Whether the election of a Black
Republican President upon a sectional an
ti-slavery Platform, and by a sectional ab
olition party;- shall be considered a suffi
cient cause for alarm and separation by a
majority'of any one or more of the South
ern States, remains to be seen. I do not
hesitate here, as I have elsewhere and ev
erywhere, to express my own opinion,
that it ought to be so considered, and if
the time shall ever arrive, and the event
ever happen-; come what may, in office or
out of office, if alive and able, I shall raise
my voice in vindication of the sincerity
with which I have uttered the sentiment”

Finally. Because I have reason to be
lieve that the so-called nomination was
brought about by a corrupt arrangement
made by trading politicians.
Whether the gentleman who succeeded
in procuring an irregular quasi nomina
tion, is entitled to Democratic support,
must depend upon the opinion entertain
ed of the obligation imposed by such
proceedings, and of his^claims upon the
Democratic party of the 5th Congression

I appeal to you, then, Democrats of
the gallant Fifth l was it becoming to
make such a nomination ? Was it proper
for those who elected Buchanan anil Brown,
to nominate their political enemy, with
denunciations of them, upon his lips up
to the hour of the assembling of the Con
vention ? Would such a nomination sat
isfy you,even if regularly and fairly made ?
I call up->n you, then, fellow Democrats
to rebuke this irregular and improper ac-1 and those clearly inferrable from,
tion, in attempting to foist this nomina-'
tion upon you. Do this, that those who
hereafter assume to represent you, may
represent your will. Do this, that you
may prove to the world that you are

The interval was occupied with speeches
from Col. Peeples of Monroe, Jonathan

The Convention then adjourned until
eight o'clock.
Eight O'Clock—The Convention called
to order. The committee on business,
through Col. P. AY. Alexander, of Upson,
presented their report, which was adopted
unanimously.
Evening Session. The Convention met
at eight P. M., pursuant to adjournment.
The committee appointed to report busi
ness for the action of the Convention, sub
mitted through their chairman, the fol
lowing preamble and resolutions, which
were passed unanimously :
PREAMBLE.
The Opposition party of Georgia plants
itself upon the principles of State Rights,
equal privileges in the Union, and equal
distribution of its burthens, and the exer
cise by Congress only of such powers as
are specifically delegated in the ConsfiLu-
and incident to, the granted powers, and
necessary to carry out such granted pow
ers.
Resolved, That the Union, as establish
ed by the Federal Constitution, if the lat
ter be faitlzfully carried out, is the surest
guaranty of the rights and interests of all
sections of the country, and should be pre
served.
Resolved, That as the institution of sla
very existed in the states of the confeder
acy prior to the adoption of the Constitu
tion of the United States, and the right to
coupled with th e> demand for enormoa,
appropriations of public money to carry
out his views, call for and deserve th*
most unequivocal and qualified condera*
nation of the whole country.
Resolved, That the present represent*
tion in the State Legislature we regard u
cumbrous, an unnecessary tax upon the
people, and inimical to wise and prudent
legislation. We advocate a decided reduc-
tion, and at the earliest day practicable.
John A. Jones, of Polk, offered the fid-
lowing proposition:
We believe there is in the Constitution
no grant to Congress of power to pass
laws on the subject of the African slaTt
trade, and without saying anything prt>.
or eon., as to the propriety of reviving the
trade, we demand the repeal of all la* f
on the subject, and that it be left to the
States, where the Constitution left it
James Johnson, of Muscogee, offered
the following as a substitute for Mr. Jones’
resolution.
Resolved, That it is inexpedient, unwise
and contrary to the settled policy of the
United States, to repeal the laws prohibit-
ing the African slave trade.
After some discussion by the movers of
these resolutions, on motion of Mr. Blan-
ford of Marion, both resolutions were
laid on the table.
W. W. Corbitt, of Taylor, offered a res
olution that this Convention do now pro
cecd to the nomination of a candidate for
Governor.
Col. Fambro desired the mover to with
draw his resolution, to give him a chance
to offer a resolution to postpone the nom
ination oi a candidate for Governor to a
future day.
Mr. Corbitt declined to withdraw.
The following resolution was then offer
ed by Mr. Sneed, of Chatham, as a sub-
stitutc for the motion of Mr. Corbitt:
Resolved, That we recommend a Muss
Convention of our friends he held in At
lanta, on the second Wednesday in Au
gust, and that this Convention will ad
journ to said place and time, ami the
counties not nor,- represented arc reques
ted to send delegates. And that wo post-
pone the nomination of a candidate for
Governor until that time. Adopted.
On motion of C. Peoples, a voto of
thanks was tendered to the officers of the
Convention, for the faithful discharge of
their duties.
