THE DEMOCRAT!
COLUMBUS, S.iTCHD.IY,CCr. 22, 1-no.
IT Tlliu Rev. Mr. SCOTT, of tl,c. rreshyte
rim order, wilt perform divine scirirc at the
Court Ihuse, to-morrow morning ut 1! o'cloeh, 1
being Sunday 24 th lost.
Wo learn from Millcdgaville, tliit tlio I.egisla*j
turo met in accordance withtho proclamation c-fj
the Governor on Monday last, and were orgai.is' ,
cd by tho election of Mr. Stocks of Greene, pres- |
ident of the senate, and John A Cuthbert, esq j
so; retarv: Mr. Hull of Clark, speaker of tho house '
and William C. Dawson, clerk.
Private letters from Milledgevillc state that our j
esteemed representative, Mr. Gresham, was seri
ously indisposed.
We learn from individuals who attended the
Camp Meeting lately held in tliis vicinity, that
tho operations of the. Holy Spirit were made
manifest in a most signal and encouraging man
ner. Although from tlm sparseness of the popu
lation in th‘a section of country, the Camp Ground
was much loss numerously attended than is ostia
in the older settlements, yet wo are enabled to
state that 15 persons professed to have obtained
the remission of tjieir sins, and 21 were added to
the church. Tho attention ar t serious deport,
merit oft he congrega'inn generally, was such a„
to afford the highest gralific ilion to every one who
l’eols an interest in tho moral and religious ini
provement of this community.
CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION.
Wo have received returns from 07 counties.
Tho following is the aggregato vole obtained by
each candidate.
WILDE, 24570
LUMPKIN, 2 bind

Tho counties yet to be heard from, w ill not it
is picsumod, greatly vary the result, and we may
therefore pronounco with certainly, that tho sev
on first named gentlemen arc elected.
A flat containing 10,(Kill foot of boards, says the
Savannah Georgian of the ltith inst. from the
head waters of tho Great jOgecohe, in Burke
county, passed on Tuesday last, into tho Canal,
and through two locks to William's planation, a
distance of 6 miiles.
The icturns of the election in Maryland, ns far
as beaid from, for the slate legislature, show the
success of 47 anti Jackson, and 17 Jackson mcm
bors.
As the senso of pcoplo has boen so clearly ex'
prosed upon the propriety of reducing tho number
of our proseut representation, wo presume tho
attention of tho presort Legislature must bo turn
ed seriously to the subject. The qoes'inn of Re
duction must be considered as settled by the late
vote on tbe subject. But the mode in wbieh this
*s to be effected, will without doubt, pr >ve a pro
lific topic of discussion, and the clashing ofpri
vatc and sectional interests which v ill picvail
whenever the subject is entered upon, mny per
haps thwart the wishes ff the people, and prevent
any decided reform being effected The great
difficulty which has hitherto met the reformers
at the very threshold ot their labors, still remains
unobviated. It is to fix upon a basis of represen
tation which shall bo acceptable to all parts of the
State If it is attempted to fix the basis of rep.
representation upon population alone..that is,if it
is proposed to affix a certain number of repre
sentatives, to ever y thousand votes, then the more
thinly settle I parts of the State will opposo it ;
and as the small and the large counties are now
equally represented in the Senate—tho propo
sition must fall of course, in an attempt to pro
duce a reform by L‘ gislative enacmcnt. And if
it is proposed to tako tho present organization
of tho counties as tho basis, and to give one or
more representative to each county—then tho
proposition will bo opposed by tho more populous
sections, who must either ho deprived of their
relative weight in the Legislature, or consent to
swell tho number of representatives beyond all
reason or necessity. We despair therrfore of ev
er seeing any desirablo reform produced by legis
lative enactment; and we are compeb dto look to
a convention as the only cure for the evil which so
largo a majority of the pcoplo have decided, does
at present exist in this matter.
For ourselves we do not entertain those fears
in relation to a Convention which many enlight
ened politicians piofess. It is contended that a
Convention when palled will be superior to tho
Legislature, and under no obligation to be gov
erned by their institutions. This is no doubt
true. But will the Convention be above the p«o
pie who convene them, or will they disregard
their wishes or their interests ? we can have no
reasonable fear that they will: But if the mem
bers of the Convention should go further than the
f'clines of the people should warrant, is tliero no
remedy } Will tho Convention havo any power
to force an instrument upon the people, repug
nant to their feelings and interests. The Con.
stitution after passing through the hands of the
Convention, may he submited to the people, fur
their aeeeptanee or rejection.
■Should a convention bo called, wo confess we
should like to seo the w hole matter of the Consti
tution confided to their hand-; there are many
inprovnmen's called for, over and above the re
ifur.tinn if the legislative body Onr whole judi.
r.a l svsieui i reds revision ; and several contem
plated improvements cannot be effected without |
correspondent changes in that instr mont; and |
in works of real improvement and utility, we are
williing to go, io use the beautiful and figurative '

repose himself on the confidence of those fri nds
who have sus'aincd Liai through t.ie stormy pa-*-
i ages of his public life, ket as a legi-iator, a
statesman, occupying a station whore his opin
ion must necessarily effect the ilo.itiny ol onr
country, it is a duty which we owe our readers,
to canvass there opinions, when proclaimed to the
world as the basis of his future acts. His late
published letter to the committee from whom he
received an invitation to atlsnd the meeting at
Columbia, S. C. is one of those documents w hich
ought not to ho overlooked by the press Ihe
importance of the subject, the nature of the doc
tsittes promulgated, all recommend it to a careful
examination." To this examination we invite our
readers. The letter itself will he found in auo- ,
ther column of this paper. It will however, bb
well in the first instance, to reflect for a moment
upon the object of the meeting, to which Gov-
Troup had hern invited. It must be borne in
mind that certain politicians of S. Carolina, hav
ing become dissatisfied with tho measures of the
general government, had threatened to secede
from tho union, unless their conditions were com
plied with; and that this meeting was called to.
consult upon tho propriety of calling a conven-|
lion of the people, to nullify an act of congress. •
Upon this matter, gov. Troup sends his optu- j
ions.
| “Whatever, (says he.) the people “ f
Carolina in convention shall resolve to “ (
i safety, interest and happiness, will bo right and
none will have the right to question it
What govoruor Troup precisely means in tins
proposition, we do not pretend to know. If how - j
ever, he means to assert that the people of South- !
Carolina cannot in their blindness and passion,
adopt truing measures, for tho redress of their
grievances, cannot like other pooplo err, the as-'
sortion is puerile and childish. It he merely in j
tends to propound an abstract political maxiin, 1
why is it connected with political movements of ,
such magnitude, unless to stimulate them in
their projected .resistance of the laws of tho union: 1
The people of Soutli-Carolina propose to nulifij
an act cf congress, and they apply to Troup for ad
ust the people of Sonth-Carolina, says ho, can
do not inn<r wrong' Was not such an assertion,
under such circumstances, intended to spur tho
I eople of our s ster state, into some overt act of
resistance-' And this suspicion is strengthened
by what follows —
“You can chaugo your own government, (lie
add") at pleasuro, and therefore you can throw
offlhe government of tlio union, whenever the
safoty,intorest huppinoss require it.”
This, from its position, connected as it is, with
the previous threats on tho subject, contain,,
something more than an abstract opinion—it
seems more like advice. Taking an impartial
roviewofthe whole ground, wo believe wo are
fully authorised in drawing tho conclusion that
Gov. Troup fully intended that his lettor should
encourage tho pooplo of S. Carolina tothat stop
towards which many of their o>vn hot-beado.l po
liticians have been hurrying them. He boldly
asserts their right to take this step, and a great
portion of the balance of his letter is devoted to
the purpose of stimuli ing their passions to a
sufficient pitch for its exercise.
“If, (he continues) ambition and avarice shall
make of the federal government, a curse, and tho
states are to bo held to it against their will, our
condition differs in nothing from tliat of the pro
vinces of Turkey ’’
Such is bis opinion of the government built up
by Washington, Franklin, and Jefferson, and oth
er sages of tiie revolution! Itself a curso to tho
people, and tho states under it reduced to tho con*
dition of Turkish provinces! It is by such decla
mation as this, that ho expects the passions of
the ignorant and unreflecting will be aroused
to open resistance 1 But what resemblance can
Gov Troup discern between our condi ion and
that of the slaves of Asia? Aro we governed by
pachas or satraps? and do wo hold our lives and
property a t tho arbitrary will of our dospnts? If
not, wherein consists this resemblance? Wo
shill be indebted to Gov. Troup if he will point
it out But it is from snch wild and unsupported
charges that tho roal character ofthe opposition
to tho general government is ascertained. And
it is by such assertions also, that ts virulence is
disarmed of its poison. Its real nature and object
arc exposed to viow, and tho storl ing patriotism of
the people will be sufficient to defeat it.
“ If contrary to expectation tho existing sys
tem shall become tho fixed and sottled policy of
the country, tho southern states must withdraw
from the confederacy, cost what it may.”
Now, notwithstanding tho opinion of Gov.
Troup, wo foci fully assured that tho present sys
tem will become tho settled policy oftho country;
and the question pro-ents itself to the people of
the south—how and wherein does its operation
provo so injurious to our interests? Are notour
farmers loss in debt than they were a few years
ago? does not cotton hear as high a price? and
are not all articles of a foreign growth which we
havo to purchase, much cheaper? If so, then
what southerner has been ruined by the system
and how has it happened? Will Gov. Troup in
form us? Let him give namer, dates and author
ity. But suppose tho tariff should have proved
somewhat oppressive to the interests ofthe south
—is that a reason for dissolving tho union? Are
there no advantages secured by the union, suf
ficient to balance slight losses? It is admitted
that the embargo and non-importation acts one
rated with unequal severity on tho commercial
cities of tho north: but did that excuse the en r‘
mity of the Hartford convention? Not in tho
least: nor will it that of Troup’s convention of
the south. Both projects must, be weighed by
the degree of moral turpitude involved in the
scheme. And posterity will no doubt mete out
the full measure to each.
It is mentioned in tho London Courier, that
the number of military who fell in the different
■ conflicts in Paris, during throo principal days of
, action, was 3 000 and of tho populace and Nation
t al Guards nearly double that number

Gkntlbmen:—Accept my thanks for

es for the results of tlio wise councils and
patriotic efforts which you cauuot fail to car
ry to the discussion of the topics of tho
day—they arc of first impoitanco to tlio
whole uuton.
Whatever the People of S. Carolina in
Convention shall resolve for their safety,
interest and happiness will be light, and
nono will have the right to question. You
can change your own government at pleas,
ute, and therefore, you can throw off tha
government of the umou whenever the safety
interest and bappines rtqu.ie it. if ambi
tion and avarice shall make of the federal
government aiurse, and the states are to be
held toitagaiist their w ill, oar condition
differs in nothing from that ot the Provinces
of Turkey or Persia. The many-headed
Tyrant, in the habitual violation of the con
stitution, vaunts his love ol union, as if rea
dy to make a burnt offering of his looms and
spindles upon tho altei of that union—yet
not one jot of concession i- made to the
prayers and entreaties which, if offered
to the 1 luone of Grace, would be received
graciously, and answered favourably. The
Cormorant who fattens and fastens on our
substance, may not release iris hold, so long
as we are tire w iiling subjects of los remorse
lesss passion. Cut ido not utterly de.-p di;
the American people will see that the Con
stitution and Union can only be preserved
by a return to honesty and justice. It is
imposiblo we cun bo wrong—ours is the
cause ol Liberty-of Freedom—-us Industry ;
of tne use ot the (acuities of mind and body
for all purposes, merely innocent without
governmental intei ferouce: opposed to re
straints and prohibitions and monopolies in
every form. If contrary to expectation,
tho existing sys.eoi shall becumo too fixed
and settled policy ol the country, the Sou
thern S ates must withdraw from tho con
federacy, cost what it may. No evil is
more to bo dreaded than the power in the
general government, to regulate Industry—
a power which cannot with safety be confi
ded to any government, but w ith tho most
guarded limitations. Direct taxes for Iho
encouragement of manufactures would not
