Acting Secretary of State.

The above Proclamation has been issued,
we understand, in consequence of intelligence
received on Monday evening from our Consul at
Matamoros, to the effect that company Of.
Texans had been organized and had marched
into Mexico, and that new enlistments were in
progress for similar movements.
All the information previously received at
the War Department was of a nature TO dis
countenance the idea that any expedition
was on foot, or that a considerable num-
Der of American citizens had passed into MeXi
co for the purpose of taking part in any insur-
rection. 1t was reported that only some twenty
individuals, suspected of such intentions, had
passed the frontier; and it was believed that the
American nation was to be spared this new ac-
cession of misfortune and disgrace, arising from
the violation of our own laws, the laws of ma
tons, and our treaty obligations.

OF FICIAL.
BY the President or the United StateH.
A PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS, there is reason to believe that
military expedition is about to be fitted out in
the United States for the purpose of invading
the Mexican republic, with which this country
is at peace. And whereas there is reason TO
apprehend that portion of the people of this
country, regardless of their duties as good clti-
zens, are concerned in or may be seduced to
take part in the same. And whereas such en-
terprises tend to degrade the character of the
United States in the opinion Of the civilized
world, and are expressly prohibited by law
Now, THEREFORE, have issued this my
PROCLAMATION, warning all persons who shall
connect themselves with any such enterprise,
in violation of the laws and national obligations
of the United States, that they will thereby
subject themselves to the heavy penalties de-
nounced against such offences; that if they
should be captured within the jurisdiction of
the Mexican authorities they must expect to be
tried and punished according to the laws of
Mexico, and will have no right to claim the in
terposition of this Government in their behalf
therefore exhort all well disposed citizens
who have at heart the reputation of their coun-
try, and are animated with just regard for its
laws, its peace, and its welfare, to discounte-
nance, and by all lawful means prevent, any
'uch enterprise; and call upon every officer
of this Government, civil or military, to be
vigilaRt in arresting for trial and punishment
every such offender.
Given under my hand the twenty second day Of
October, in the year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and fifty one, and the seventy sixth
of the independence Of the United States.

THE REPUBLIC.
WASHINGTON:
THURSDAY MORNING. OCTOBER %. 1851

"The series of measures TO which have alluded
are regarded by me as a settlement, in principle
. and substance--a final settlement-of the danger
Gus and exciting subjects which they embraced
. By that ad iustment we have been rescued from
. the wide and bouudless agitation that surrounded
: us, and have firm, distinct, and legal ground
TO rest upon. And the occasion, trust, VIII JUS
. ,ifv me IN rxaoRrISe MY coUNTRYMES TO RALLY
upoS AND MAINTAIN THAT GROUND as the best, II
Il. not the only means of restoring peace and quiet
. TO the country, and maintaining inyiolate the in
tegrity Of the Union"
IPREsIpEST FILLMoRE's MESSAGE.
&" The President's message, at the opening OF the
present session of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion OF all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
. istration Of the Government, in regard to what
= are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea-
sures of last session. That opinion is, that those
measures should be regarded in principle as
a final settlement Of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from imperfecuons, YET IN their
mutual dependence and connection, they formed
system of compromise the most conelhatory
and best for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interests and
opinions, and that therefore they should be ad-
hered to, until time ard experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further legislation tC
guard against evasion or abuse That opinion
:. so far as | know remains entirely unchanged
and will be acted upon steadily and decisively
The peace of the country requires this; the Sc
curity of the Constitution requires this; and every
consideration of the public good demands this
IF the Administration cannot stand upon thu
principles of the message, it does not expect t
stand at all.''-DAsIEL WEBsrER's Letter TO III

Union Meeting in Mississippi.

The great Union mass meeting at jackson,
Mississippi, to- place on the 9th and 10th
inst, and wa characterized by degree of en-
thusiasm and harmony that augurs well for the
result of the pending election in that State.
The barbecue on the 9th was given in grove
adjoining the city, and the New Orleans True
Delta, whose reporter present, speaks in
glowing terms Of the extent and completeness
Of the various arrangements. The proceedings
commenced at a. m, when Judge w l..
SHARKEY, Chief Justice Of the supreme court.
was called upon to preside. The principal
speaker was Senator FooTE, whose reception
was of the most gratifying nature He was
followed by Judge A. F. HoPKIEs, of Alabama,
j. SHAW YERGER, of Washington county, Gen.
P. B. STARKEY, of Bolivar county, Captain
d. r. RUSSELL, of Carroll county, Mr..
LUcKETT, Of Madison county, Mr.. f.. X.
BUcKSER, Of Scott county, Mr.. w. BRooKE, of
Lexington, and Gen. w. r.. MILES, of Jack
son. Shortly before the adjournment the news
Of the result of the Georgia election was re-
ceived. "The effect of this intelligence, y
says the True Delta, "was electrical Shout
of JOY succeeded shout for several minutes; the
gentler sex participated in the universal jubila-
ton, and clapped their hands and the glorious
result, triumphant to the Union party beyond
the most sanguine expectation, was the theme
of conversation long after the assembage was
dispersed"
The speakers on the second day were Judge
S. s. BoYD, of Natchez, Gen. j. ID. FREEMAN
Judge SHAREEY, Gen. w. CLAREE, Col. J,
n. DAVIS, and G.. NJ. HITLER, Of the Natchez
Courier.

We copy from two leading DEMocRArIc
journals of GEORGIA certain speculations, to
which we would direct the especial attention
of those whom they may concern. They do
not seem to favor the idea of some of our De
MocRATIo neighbors as to their whereabouts
on the National DEMOCRATIC platform. They
regard the election Of Mr.. CoBB in light very
different from that in which ii is presented to
our worthy metropolitan contemporary. 1t is
not impossible CATER alp that the local DEMO
CRATIC press in GEORGIA may understand the
case of the party in that quarter better than
our worthy contemporary:
From the Savannah Georgian.
The WAsHINoToN UNIos AND MEssRs. Com
And FooTE.-The Washington Union, of the l4th
inst, has article of little significance, de-
voted in part to Messrs. Foote and Cobb, and other
Democrats who have gone off into the "Union"
organization. Our Washington contemporary is
maniiestly affected with some apprehension, hint
ed rather than distinctly expressed that these gen.
tlemen may not return TO the Democratic fold,
and go with the party into Baltimore Conven-
ton. 1t does not consider them "absolved from the
responsibility which properly attaches to their pre-
vious public career" now that the emergency
mas passed away which rendered necessary their
operation with the Wings. It is thoroughly
averse to the creation Of third party, and dis
cards the suggestion that ''the Democratic par
ty may be absorbed by permanent Union
party in the South" II affects to treat as "chi-
merical" "the intimation that Messrs. Cobb and
Foote will not hereafter act with the Demo-
cratic party, or come into convention with the
National Democratic party to elect candidates for
the Presidency Vice Presidency" Yet it is
manifest that the Union has its fears on this point
Even its eyes have at length opened upon indica
tons 10 which it was impossible to remain blind.
1t now probably that in patting these gentle
men on the back, and aiding them to overthrow
the Democratic and Southern Rights party, it has
done something more than assist in bringing about
the defeat of the opponents Of the Compromise; it
has actually done what it could to give triumph
TO the Federal Wings of the South-a triumph to
| result, we fear, in permanent advantages, TO the
Federal party. 1t is high time that press was call
ing back to the Democratic standard its southern
| friends. IL remains to be whether they will
answer and obey the call. Our readers know full
well what anticipations TO their future
course. We prophecy that they will not go into
the Baltimore Convention, and will not support it's
nominees. Let time decide whether our antici.
pations those of the Washington Union are

The Jackson (NIiss.) Flag Of the Union
publishes the following letter from Mr.. CLAY,
in reply to an invitation to attend the barbecue
got up by the Union men at jackson, Missis-
sippi:
ASHLAND, September 30, 1851.
GENTLEMEN: have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt of your invitation to attend the Mass
Meeting of the friends of the Union. at Jackson,
in Mississippi, on the 9th and 10th proxi1no,
and TO thank you for the compliment Of it. 1t
would afford me very great pleasure, if could, by
accepting it, be present on that interesting occa
sion, and if could, by any humble exertions Of
mine, contribute to the support of the good and
patriotic cause in which you are engaged. But
the delicate state of my health, the low stage Of
water in the Ohio river, and my desire, if can, to
attend the next session of the Senate interpose
inseparablc obstacles to the qualification of my
wishes
seize the occasion to tender you my cordial
con organizations, gentlemen, on the suspicious 10.
sue of your late election of delegates to the con.
vention> The highest praise is due to the public
virtue the intelligence, and the patriotism Of the
people of Mississippi for that glorious result With
noble exception, their Congressional leaders
had abandoned them, or sought to involve them in
all the calamitous consequences of civil war; for
secession, II 1t has any meaning, IS revolution, and
revolution is But the people would not allow
themselves to be deceived and misled; they became
their own leaders; they proved true to Themselves
to their country, and to the preoious inheritance Of
the Union, which they have derived from the wis
dom of their fathers, and they have signally tri-
umphcd.
Your opponents, driven by the force of public
opinion from the ground OF practically exercising
at this time the right of secession, have sought a
refuge under the cover of thcoretic or abstract
right to secede, and cndeavoring to persuade
the people to go along with them. But why assert
that right if il ia not to be exercised? If there be
no existing exigency which requires secession,
would it not be better to await until such an ext
gency shall arises
The assertion of the right now, by a contested
majority, would not establish the right of secession
so to bind future generations, who would form
their own opinions, and act for themselves. hope
there is covert design entertained Of pledging
the people to the doctrine of secession, and then
shortly after calling upon them to cooperate with
another State in contingency which may happen
there in the support Of that doctrine
am sorry, gentlemen, that neither my time nor
the occasion is suitable to the examination Of that
doctrine. Wishing that your barbecue may rea-
lie all your anticipations, and that Mississippi
may cont inue TO manifest her fidelity to the Union,
am, with the greatest respect, your obedent ser
want, III. CLAY.

The mechanics FAIR at Baltimore was
on Tuesday evening addressed by JOHN p.
KENNEDY, esq; professional business having
compelled Mr.. WEBSTER to decline delivering
an address, as was expected, on this occasion.
Our Baltimore correspondent, whose letter an
nouncing Mr.. WEBsrER's declension did not
reach us in regular course Of mail, says:
"Thc fact will be great disappointment to
many who have come here expressly to hear and
sec the Farmer Of Marshfeld. The dsappoint-
ment Of Mr.. WEBSTER is doubtless equally great,
since it may be presumed he anticipated much
pleasure in cultivating more extended intimacy
with the farmers Of Maryland, Virginia, and
Pennsylvania, SO many Of whom now assembled
here"
The address Of Mr.. KENNEDY appears in the
Baltimore papers Of yesterday. II is charac-
terized by that gentleman's usual nerve and
eloquence, and withal antiquarian research.
