The proceedings of the Southern Rights meet
ing at Carlowville, in the wealthiest part of
Dallas. county, viii be found on our first page
this morning. 2 &. u
We learn that the Southern Rights Associa-
ton ut that place numbers more than two hun
dred members, Every man who has been asked
to join it so far has consented, except one. The
members are composed of Wings and Demo-
Gratis, Northern men, Eastern men, Southern
men, Western men, and all sorts of true men
from all sections of the Confederacy. In short,
the people of Carlowyille and its vicinity seem
to be all of one opinion.
At Callaba the Southern Rights meu have had
an exciting time. A meeting Of the quasi
:" Union men" was called, but it W IS found to be
mainly composed of Southern Rights men, SO
both parties separated, and each ,S,ssed its own
set Of resolutions neither Of which We have
seen. Conspicuous Oh the Southern Rights side
were Coils. J. s. Walker, and George w. Gayle,
and Messrs. Beene, Campbell, Byrd, Powell,
English, and Loder. Our congressman, Mr..
Bowden delivered an able speech on the occa-
sion, in which he declared it as his opinion that
the first business ofNthe next Congress will be
to repeal the Fugitive law '.,
A Southern Rights Association was formed
subsequently,, and Col G.. ]. s. Walker, the
eloquent author of the eulogy on Mr. Calhoun
and Mr.. Loder, were chosen presidents of it.
We observe that among the first orders OF the
Association was one to subscribe for ten copies
of the Mobile Tribune, and the same number Of
the Dallas Gazette, the Montgomery Advertiser
and the Montgomery Atlas.

SLAVES UNWILLING TO BE FREE.-Sometime
since Mr.. Jones, planter residing near the edge
OF the boundary line of this county, died, and by
his will set his slaves free. They number about
eighty. His brother, Chamberlin Jones, esq.
who was charged with seeing the will properly
executed, took the most intelligent Of the negro
men, and with him proceeded to Illinois and there
selected n large and valuable tract Of land on
which to locate the freed negroes.
On his return he discovered that they manifested
some unwilingness to go, apprehendingt this
feeling trunsitory and intent upon carrying out
the last wishes Of his deceased brother he brought
them to this city, on their way to the selected set
ucment The boat which was to carry them was
at our wharf, the passage OF the negroes engaged
and they, themsell es, were assembled to proceed
on board. AT this uncture, the negroes all gath
cred around Mr.. Jones, and pleaded so long and
earnestly for permission, TO remain that he was f.
nnliy moved by their entreaties. He warned them
ina! II they remained they would have to return 10
thelr customary round of duties under the over

are abundant. There is Ewing, Corwin, Vinton

several others. There is considerable balloon

The Toledo Blade advocates Johnston's claims
strongly. 1t says We must have new men in the
Senate That Judge Johnston is a Wing of the
Taylor stamp. Johnston did not want it so I'M
derstood on the reserve before the election. 1t
says he Is now we'll known to the citizens of
Ohio. That may be true; but the election
showed that Wood was much better known.
Just wait till the session commences, and then
the ballooning will begin. There is no doubt
fun ahead.

CENSUS OF GEoRGIA.-Col. VIM. w. Brown,
U. S. Marshal for this State, informs us that
complete returns have been received from about
one-thrd of the counties, and that the whole will
probably be in by the 25th December. These
returns show that the population, in those coun-
ties in the Cherokee section which have been
heard from, and in a few along the Chattahoo-
chez river, has doubled since lS45, when the last
State census was taken. There has been also
material increase In every county in the State
even in the Oldest, such as BulIoch and Tat
nall.
COL Brown gives it as his opinion, from the
partial returns received that the population of
the State will exceed one million of souls. He
thinks there will be about six hundred thousand
whites and four hundred thousand blacks.--Sa-

CALrroRNIA.--Some of the smart submissionists
ask, with triumphant shake Of the head, and a
very wise look, " what clause in the Constitution
has been violated by the admission of California -
" Point u.s." say they, "to the clause" We
will give them a Yankee answer, by asking ano-
Their question. Suppose Congress should abolish
slavery in Georgia, what clause in the Consttu-
ton would be violated by it! They cannot show
any clause forbidding Congress to abolish slavery
here--does it therefore follow that Congress has
the constitutional power TO do it;
Now, there are great many things Congress
has the power to do, that are not forbidden by
the letter Of the Constitution. 1t used to be the
fashion to look into the Constitution, which is the
organic law Of government of limited powers, to
see what Congress may debut in these Free-so
and submission days, it is now read to see what
Congress may not do. ......'
1t was the spirit of the Constitution that was vi
olated in the admission of Calfornia--it was that
great fundamental principle Of the charter, on
which the whole fabric Of the Government rests
the principle Of perfect equality and mutually
of rights, privileges, duties and burthens between
the sovereign States ofthe Union Columbus (Ga.)

ANOTHER AUTHOR OF JUNIUs.-Tho Cincin-
natl Times says that in looking over file of the
Western Spy and Hamilton Gazette, published
in Cincinnati in 1902, they found a letter copied
from Philadelphia paper, in which it was sta
ted that General Lee, of the American army, had
privately declared himself to be the author of
the Junius Letters; and the writer Of the CON-
munlcation, on comparing manuscript letters
by Gen. Lee with those Of Junius was of opin-
ion that the similarity Of style was sufficient to
establish the Generals claim to the long disputed
authorship.

Our city contemporaries seem TO be engaged In
hot conflict in relation to their different views
in regard to the slavery question, Southern
rights, and the Con promise bills We wish
them well out of it, Wear alone in our glory
We do not bubble about the amount we should
surrender, or the party we should support--we
go for all our constitutional rights, without the
abatement Of single iota. All is our right anc
all we claim. If the whole South would come
to that issue at once, we should soon have al
end of agitation. But so long as part OF the
Southern people manifest a disposition to com
promise portion of what is their just due, Sc
long will the North push their aggressions. W.
were struck with remark we heard the othe
day-a gentleman said in our presence, that "tht
North had right to Cypress u.s. so long as W.
were tame enough to submit to the yoke. -
Whether the North has a right or not, is ques
ton for the Southern people to determine, bu
that the po,ner will be exercised, past experience
proves We contend that the North has neithe
the right nor the poper to infringe, as heretofore
upon our constitutional privileges-providedt thu
South will maintain a firm constitutional posi-
ton We do not mean the "higher power" bu
the Constitution of the United States. The ad
vocates of the Compromise" may agitate II
much as they please for measures of erpediency
(Which always involve a surrender Of guaranteed
rights on one side)-we go for the Constitution
as it is, and the rights Of all the States Of TIT
Union under it. We are willing to adopt an.
home measure of defence, provided it is calcu
lated to do good-but we have no certain faitl
in the almost hopeless prospect that they vii
effect much. We would 60 for non-intercourse
or any other measure, if even partially beneficial
but we fear the only remedy exists in the exer

49, The above facts have been communicated to us
from the most respectable sources and Mr.. Jones
will, we hope, pardon the unwarranted use OF his
name in publishing this practical lesson to the IA
natics and Abolitionists
BY the way, whilst we are upon this subject,
we may us we'll give another pointed anecdote.
There is in this city negro tailor, who is trying
to buy his freedom. Wishing to expedite the
matter, and having heard something of abolition
professions Of love for his race, he determined last
Summer to go TO Ohio and solicit assistance. He
could not succeed in collecting one cent from the
Ohio AEoltonists. He has returned to this city
impressed with profound contempt for Ohio Abb
olitionists-says that they are g mighty mean

in Memphis than in all Ohio, and is working away

PARTIEs.-Ihe efforts of leaders to the contrary
Notwithstanding, there has been complete revo-
luton of parties in this State. The names OF
Wing and Democrat are no more descriptive OF
the political divisions of the people Of this country
than they would be in England. They are obso-
lete terms--as dead the ISSUES which they once
represented The continued asgressions of the
North upon the South have excited the Southern
people to the consideration Of questionss far out
weighing in importance any which have been in
volged in our former differences, and forgetting
the issues which once divided them, they have
rallied under the banner of their common rights.
Such being the disturbing cause. cause which
! operates alike upon every man now living at the
South, or in any way interested in the security OF
slave property, 1t is matter of asonishment that
there should be any difference in sentiment among
us. Ii would seem, that in contest like this, in
which the rights of the South are directly involved
that all Southern men should stand shoulder TO
shoulder IN resisting u common enemy Such
however is not the fact. Though Old party dis
unctIons have been obliterated, new ones have
been formed; new parties have sprung into exist.
ence, and the contest between them is more bitter,
more intense, than any that was ever waged under
the old divisions.
The fact presents subject Of humiliating and
alarming reflection. Humiliating because we know
that many have taken sides in this controversy
from other considerations than those Of devotion
TO the South or love for the Union. Ambition.
selfshness, hopes of personal aggrsndizemsnt,
these and kindred motives, rather than any honest
desire to serve the country, have driven too many
of our feiloW-citizens into ranks hostile To the best
interests Of the South and the Union. HumiIiat-
ing again, because In many instances that keen
perception Of right, and quick apprehension Of
wrong, which all freemen ought to have in guard
ing their liberties, have been completely obdurated
by devotion TO party and party leaders. Alarm
