Homestead Exemption.

The doctrine OF Homestead Ex-
emption has been thoroughly can
vassed in this community-is well
understood, and as a natural conse-
quence, has but few friends. We
have opposed it from the start, be-
cause we believe that fraud, inequali-
ty and injustice are of its very es-
sence. Why not go a step farther
in the work Of robbery and dema-
gogueism, after il was commenced,
by fixing a maximum, and giving TO
every man who does not come up to
it, as much as will make him equal
with his fellows. There would be
Just about as much justice in rob-
bing somebody that has too much
land and giving it to the landless, as
there is in allowing man to defraud
his neighbor out Of sum Of money
justly owing him. The "vote your
sel(-a.iarm" doctrine no worse than
t h a t OF Homestead Exemption
which is only new reading of the
text "give 10 him that hath abun-
dance, and from him that hath moth
ing take away even that which he
hath" The whole thing is unwise,
absurd and unjust, and will prove a
serious injury TO The very class il
was intended to benefit.

We rejoice at the election OF Mr.. Campbell
by an increased majority. He is among the
best and most vigilaHt of the Wing members Of
Congress, and we are happy to find that large
majority of his constituents think the same way.
He was one of those who remained at his post
in Congress- and did not leave until after the
adjournment He did not dodge any votes, or
shun any responsibility. He SPARED Off with
NJ body for the purpose Of stamping his district
and, at the same time, draw his pay till the end
of the session. His constituents appreciated his
conduct, and have given him a very heavy major

fifty of as many votes as did Judge Vance, who
has always been regarded as a very popular

From the Columbus (Ga.) Sentinel.

Our last legislature, by majority unusually
large, passed bill authorizing our Governor to
Summon a convention of the people of the State,
upon the happening Of certain events. One of
these contingencies, the admission Of California,
has already TRANSFERRED, and Gov. Towns has al
ready issued his proclamation, ordering an cleo
ton the 25th day Of November next. Now,
what does tins mean Our Legislators intended,
and the world so understood them that the Stnte of
Georgia would hold the passage Of any one of the
measures contemplated, an outrage upon the rights
Of her people, and the convention was ordered for
the purpose Of maintaining those rights. We are
committed, then, in the face Of friends and enc
mics, to this declaration, and we now stand where
we must either resist an acknowledged wrong, or
quietly back out from our position. II is too late
now to talk about honorable acquieScencr Mr..
Toombs or Judge WelIborn may be so blind to
our rights as not to how they are outraged by
any thing Congress has done, but our legislature
thought differently, and it has proclaimed 10 the
world that the admission Of California would in.
nict nm injury upon the rights Of the South, and
a stain upon her honor. Now, who is authorized
to represent Georgia. these gentlemen or the egls-
luture3 Which will the people believer The
matter rests with you, Georg ans; you may either
vindicate your State, or you may subject her to
the ignominy Of having cowardIy re.rac,ed her

The success that crowned his audacious agita-

The Georgia stone.-A Correction.

The National hHeligencer in the first place,
made the following statement with reference to
the inscription on the block furnished by Geor-
gia to the Washington Monument, since which
time it has gone he rounds:
THE GEORGIA BLocK-The editor of the
CoastitutionaEst has examined the block ordered
by Gov. Towns for the Washington Monument,
and describes it as being a" beautiful piece OF
workmanship, which will compare tavorably with
any from our sister States" The motto In
scribed on il is: The Union as il u.s."
Now this is not the inscription OH the Georgia
stone, nor did the editor of the Augusta Consli-
nationalist so state it for we copied at the time
his editorial in full, in which he says:
1.-The motto inscribed on it is:
The Union as pds-Lhe Constitution as il
is"
Now as this motto is a much more significant
one than the other, and conveys precisely The OPP
posits meaning to it, we hope all those presses
which have fallen into the error will make the
correction. .u-..
Of course we neither charge nor insinuate in.
territorial misrepresentation in the matter any
whefe {: as such mistakes will sometimes occur
All that we desire is, that The true sentiment o.
Georgia, engraven on that stone, should not be
misunderstood or misrepresented.
