Messrs. Boycc, Donham and Keitt urg
ed the call and immediate action.
CHARLEsroN, Nov. S.-A large body o
citizens called on tho resigned federal Of.
liccrs last night, they were greeted will
enthusiasm, the officials returned thanks
in spirited addrcsses. A dispatch in tho
| Courier says Buchanan will resist nullfi.
cation but not secession.
MLLEDGEvlLLE, Ga, Nov. S--Gov
Brown in especial message to the Legis.
latulc, thinks but few States will meet the
Southern Convention aud doe, not recon.
mend the appointment Of delegates from
Georgia. He thinks the constitutional
rights o: the people of Georgia have been
violated hy several non. .slavcholdng
States to the extent OF iustiIying in the
| Judgment Of civilized nations the adoption
Of any measures necessary for the restora-
ton and future protection Of their rights
lie referred to the patriotic spirit in the
origin Of our government, and portrays
the series OF unconstitutional and I'm
friendly acts subsequently. He is point
cdly severe on Massachusetts laws, ant
tays, if the laws of Massachusetts, caus,
plumber from Gcorgia's citizens, tina
State must he compelled to compensate
them. lie advises rcp'iSals. and says
let us meet unjust aggrcSsons and uncon
stitutonal State Legislation with just le
talaiton. lie recommends the enac, mcn
OF laws authorizing the seizing of sucl
amount OF money or property OF any cit
i2en of such offending and fathless State
| for indcmniiying the losses of citizens o
Georgia. He recommends Legislation to
drive the manufactured articles Of such
offending States out of Georgia. lie says
Georgia has the right as soon as Northern
goods are brought into Georgia to tax
them as she deems proper. lie advises
the passing of law taxing goods an,
merchandise twenty-five per cent, intro
duced after the lst OF Janua"y. il Manu-
factulcd in, or brought from Massachu
sets, Vermont, Michigan, Maine, Rhod,
Island, New York Wisconsin, or an,
other unlricndly States, and the tax to b,

is repealed, should such Legislation prov,
Intellectual, he recommends the repeal o
all parts of tho penal and civil code pro
tccting the lives, liberties and property o
the citizens of the States where such un
friendly laws exist
lie says In my opinion the time fo
bold and decided action has arrived, an,
he is unworthy the confidence of the peo
! pie Of Georgia who refuses to vindicatc
her honor a. any cost, and maintain hei
constitutional rights at every hazard. lie
believes the legi,lat recommended will
tend TO strengthen rather than weaken liC
ties o. the Union of the States. 1t will
destroy sectional controversy and narrow
down the iSsue> to n contest between indi.
vi'Iual States. He says if the Legislature
fails to enact laws he recommends that tho
people should rise in their might and at
the Ballot Box demand their enactment
| The Governor cntertainS no doubt of the
right OF each State to decide to act fol
herself so long rs all the States abide in
good faith by the constitutional ohliga,
tions. No State can Withdraw from the
Union without being guilty of bad faith
to the others; any violation of the com.
pact relieves all parties. The right of SO.
ccSSlnn, for cause was only denied by
those who deny the sovereignty o! the
States.
The message fills twenty-five closely
printed octave pages. \ tul review OF
offensive Northern Legislation concludes

For the purpose of putting the State,
