HARpER's FERRY REsoLUTIoNs.

The following preamble and resolutions were introduced in the Legislature ol Georgia, recently, by MT. Gibson:
 Whereas, The late attempt at Harper. Ferry in the State of Virginia to excite a portion of the slaves of the South to in. surrection, has produced the highest de- gree of indignation in the minds of the Southern people against the perpetrators of that outrage, their aiders and abetlors and affords just ground to apprehend a renewal of their efforts in other places
 And whereas, the action of Gov. Wise and President Buchanan meets with oul unqualified appreciation, we deem i, incum' bent upon the members of the Legislature of the State of Georgia to give the mos authoritative expression of their senti. ments. Therefore
 Rssolued, That we regard the effort tC excite the slaves of the South to a scrvile instruction, with the most intense indig. nation, and trust that the parties 10 thi: insane and treasonable plot, may mee
 with the most prompt and signal punish. ment; believing as we do that while il
 will be meeting out a just retribution fol
 their crime, 1t will exert a wholesome in. fluence in deterring others from Counte. nancing similar movements.
 Resolusd, That the prompt and ener. getic action of Gov. Wise, of Virginia, and of President Buchanan, in suppress. ing the outbreak at Harper's Ferry, and in thelr efforts 10 capture the insurgents, evince a degree of maniness and palri. otism, honorable alike to them, and worthy of our warm admiration.
 ResoIued, That we pledge the State of Georgia, to uphold and support the State of Virginia, and the President of the United States, in the position they have assumed, in connection with this unfonu. nate affair, and we earnestly counsel the ulmosts vigilance in guarding against the occurrence of similar conspiracy, in our own borders, or elewhere at the South.
 Resolved, That copy of the foregoing preamble and resolutions. be transmitted by the Governor of the State of Georgia, to the Governor and Legislature of Vir- ginia, and to the President of the United States.
 The same was then ordered to be trans. mitted to the Senate without delay.
 THE LEGISLATURE OF TENNESSEE ON THE HARpER's FERRY AFrAIn.-The following resolutions have been introduced in the Legislature of Tennessee
 Resolred by the General Assembly of the State of Tennessee, That we recog- mise in the recent outbreak at Harper's Ferry, the natural fraits of this treason able irrepressible conflict doctrine put forth by the great head of the black re- publican party, and echoed by his subor- dinates; and that it becomes the impera- tive duty of national men of all parties throughout the Union, to announce to the world their sense of it's infamy, and to unite in crushing out it's authors as traitors to their country and as deadly enemies to the public peace, the rights of the States, and the preservation of our republican institutions.
 Resoioed, That we record it as the sense of the Tennessee Legislature that the declaration of MT. Seward that re- spectatable portion of the Southern peo. pie, under the lead of Cassus M. Clay and Francis P. Blair, will unite with the black republican party to prevent the ex- tension of slavery, and will eventually rise up against slavery" is libel upon he honor and loyalty of the Southern people, and will but serve to make them more watchful and exacting of their pub. ic servants in the national councils.
 Resolred, That 1t is the duty of our re. presentatives in Congress to recognise as enemies to the Union, and especially to he slave States, all who in any way fa- TOT or affiliate with this sectional black re- publican party, and that any action on heir part which favors cooperation with black republicans in organizing the House, and thus placing the officers and important committees of that body under heir control, would be false to the senli- nents of the people of Tennessee, and an nsult to their constituents and disgraceful o themselves.
 Resolued, That we acknowledge our appreciation of the promptness with which he national administration took steps to heck the recent conspiracy before it ob- aimed the huge dimensions of revolu. ion.
