\ NOBLE SENTIMENT Governor of
Georgia cmbodics the following noble senti-
mcnt in his annual message:
No monarch rules here And it is the pride
Of our system Of government that each citizen
at the ballot-box possesses equal rights ofsov-
crcignty- with every other Thanks be to
our Heavenly Father, the popular voice cannot
here bc hushcd in the silence Of dcspotism,
but the popular will dictates the law. May it
thus ever remain How important il is, there
fore, that the masses of the people be cduca-
ted so each may be able to read and under
stand for himself the constitution and history
of his country, and TO judge and to decide for
himself what are the true principles and poll
cy Of his government. But how much more
important it is, in my opinion, that every per-
son in the State be enabled to read for him or
herself the Holy Bible, and to comprehend the
great principles of Christianity, in the eternal
truths of which am firm though humble
believer Educate the masses and inculcate
virtue and morality, and you lay broad and
deep the foundations Of good government in
the hearts of our people.

extraordinary Developments n VIOLATIONS



| The New York Herald announces that ever
| since the 9th day OF March last, book, called
Compendium for the Impending Crisis of
the South" has been secretly circulated in
large numbers in the Northern States, en-
dorsed by a private circular, TO which are APP
pended the names of the Governor of the State
OF New York, ofan ex- j Judge OF the New YORK
Supreme Court of the Chairman Of the New
York Republican State Committee. of large
number OF the mos, wealthy aud respeetapa
citizens of Now York and Of SIXTY-ElGHT
MEMBERS OF CONGRESS. The circular
is published in fuIi in the Herald, with series
of extracts from the revolving pages Of
tho hoax i,se,f and the list of subscribers who
have Maid large sums for its circulation. We
advise the merchants of the South to examine
this list. and see whether they are not buying
goods of some of these very men.
The Hera'd says that in this book the mask
of moderation is com pletely thrown aside, the
Republican party is declared to be completely
remorseless and bloody revolution is openly
proclaimed: Slavery must be throttled. y
No man can be a true patriot without becom-
ing an abolitionist. Every victim of
the vile institution, whether white or black,
We believe the Northern people have
been too scrupulous. They have ap-
preached but half way to the line of their du-
ty." The non-siayeholders of the South are
thus exhorted ADO not reserve the strength
of your arms until You shall have been rem
dered llowerless to strike;' and the slavehold-
ersare told, it is for you to decide whether
we are TO have justice peaceably or by vio-
lence; for, whatever conseq uences may follow,
we are determined TO have il one way or
another
Such are the horrib doc crimes recommended
by merchants, men of substance, Judges, and
members of Congress. We cannot give the
taintest idea of the denunciation. ribaldry and
falsehood which are heaped III this book, thus
recommended, upon the South. One thing is
certain The Harper's Ferry explosion did
not occur one minute too soon 10 wake the
South from its dangerous slumber and false
security. II, hereafter, she fall a victim to
the wiles of her advers aries, the keenest sting
that will rankle in her dying heart will be the
recollection that she was warned and warned,
and warned again. but persisted in whisper
ing to herself peace, peace, when there is no
peace
