Judge Clayton then mo ved tlie reconsideration of the motion, to offer Resolutions, which he believed would 'satisfy all parties, and save time; and the motion was seconded by Judge Berrien. This Jed to nyich discussion, in which judges Cfayton and Berrien and Col. .Milton, advocated the motion, 'land Wm. A. Torrance, Esq. General Glas cock, Col. Stewart, Col. Gamble, Col. Terrell; and Judge Ilarriss, opposed it. the latter contending, that the appoints ment of a Committee was the proper and usual course; and the former that it mat terpd not what .was the course pursued, so the views of the' meeting could be ob- taiucd by it as quickly as possible. Some unpleasant rellections having been made against the motion thdy were replied (o in a spirited manner by Cel. Milton, who paid a merited compliment to .the mover Jud-e Clavton, and said that one of the great difficulties that gentleman, had. al ready had to contend with, in Congres9 was the trickerv of Committees. On some remarks by General Glascock in favor of General Jackson, Judge Clayton replied, th?t no man thcu, propablyj was more irieudly to Gen. J. than he; but l the South, should have to choose be tween him and their violated rights, he felt assured t! oy would not: hesitate a moment to give him up, and the senti ment was most loudly and enthusiastical ly cheered. The motion was tmally car ried an4 the followiug Resolutions were introduced by Judge Clay ton and receiv ed with great, applause. j "Whereas, the people of Georgia, as well in primary assemblies of citizens, in their respective counties, as by their Representatives in the Legislature there of, have repeatedly aod solemnly j declar ed the several acts levying duties on im ports (in so far. as such acts transcended the purposes of revenue, and were de signed for the protection of j manufac tures,) to be un jpst, oppressive, and un constitutional, an l have solemnly announ- cea tneir determination not to submit to such unlawful exactions, and their conse quent resolution to resist them, if, after reasonable time, they should not be re pealed. , And, whereas, the good people'of this State, and others, having common inter ests withthom in this matter, have look ed to the period of the national debt, as that at which the income raised by tax ation, should be reduced to the sum re quired by the wants of the Government, by duties fairly imposed upon all .the iin- nn.to rl.. IT.:.. I . . . puna vi i.uc ouueu csiaies. anu nave ex pected from the justice of that Congress. which has just closed its session, a repeal of these obnoxious laws: And, whereas, this reasonable expectation has been disappointed, and the Protection of Man ufactures is now avowed as a permanent principle of Federal Legislation: Be it, therefore, Resolved, That we. as free citizens of Georgia, will not longer submit to a system ot legislation, which is arbitrary unequal and unconstitutional and, therefore, unjust, That it be re commended to our fellow citizens in the several counties, to elect Delegates to a State Convention, to assemble at Mil- ledgeville, on the Monday in Novem ber next, and to invest them! with lull powers in behalf of the good people of oeorgia, to maintain, preserve, and de fend the rights and privileges of the free citizens tof this State. Resolved, That be a committee of cor respondence, to confer with our fellow Citizens or otner Slates, on all matters competed with our common interests." The'Rcso lutions were seconded bv Judge Berrien aud advocated by him in an able and impressive speech. Uen Glascock then offered, as an amendment; a resolution denouncing Nullificatjon, and lu a speech in support of it, strongly a bu- sea tlie INuIhhers-of South ! Carolina The amendment was advocated by Mr Torrence, and opposed by F. II. Cone, Esq. '.ina very splendid and impressive speech, in which he ably defended Nulli- ticalion and its advocates, and declared a determination to resist the Tariff, it necessary even unto death! and these sentiments were repeatedly and. enthusi astically chafrred. Judge Berrien then opposed the amendment, and detended the iulhhers ol Carolina, in a short but J most eloqueut and thrilling address;, and when he spoke of the infatuated folly of opposing and denouncing a people, who were defending our rights, as well as their own. and wrih whom we - 'might yet have to stand shoulder to shoulder in a common defence of our common rights and said it was time to do iusfire to hat people, and not only acknowledge heir great virtues and inestimable servi ces in the common cause, but make them imple amends for all the injuries of the past he was cheered, at everv sentence, with the most rapturous, genera),' and dea- lening applause. A Warmer; spirit of affectionate gratitude, respect and admi ration, or one more warmly and thor oughly responded to, we have never wit nessed. No sentiments were more Ioud- y and generally applauded, throughout he whole evening, than thoe in support and approbation of the Nullifiers of Car olina, and they who witnessed this, could not but have felt the most supreme con- empt, mingled with scorn and indination, at the efforts often made to misrepresent and mar'the cordial feeling evidently ex isting toward Carolina. It is j useless to talk longer bf any dislike or distrust of j Carolina. It is evident that among the people there is but one -tone ; of feeling toward Carolina thai of gratiMde, af fection and admiration. " ! ; When the questions were put, the a-, mendment was defeated by an overwhel ming' majority, and the Resolutions ad opted with hut about five dissenting voi ces, and the building rang again with the cheers that followed each decision; The first blank was then filled with second, so as to read "the second Mon day in November next," as the time for the meeting of the -State Convention. The second blank was filled, by' the Chairman, with the names, Augustin S. Clayton, John M. Berrien,; Wm. C. Dawson, Saml. Rockwell, Wm. II. I orr ranee, Joel Crawford, and Thos. Glas cock, as the Committee of Correspon dence. The proceedings were directed to be signed by tho Chairman and Secre tary, and published and the meeting ad journed. . -Nullification, then, has triumphed! at least as much as it designed to triumph and-even more! The Nulfifiers never designed to press the adoption of their doctrines, but considered it proper to throw the matter entirely into the hands of the people, for them to decide on "the mode and measure of redress' It was the general understanding among them, before the meeting that.tney would not press any kind of remedy till the L subject was. placed in the hands of tbJ people, for them to hear all, and decide between all; and it was. not till nullifica tion and nullifiers had been abused and .vilified again and again, that they were defended, when patience could endure it no longer. They declared that nullifica tion wasrno part of their present adject that all they wished was first to securo the decision to the people, to whom it belonged; and that when they had don this, they were prepared to abide-their decision,, whether for or against them, and to yield their individual preferences to their will, and take up, with one heart and one spirit, whatever remedy they might adopt. In opposing the amend ment, denouncing nullification, and res tricting the. people ugaiust the adoption of it, as u remedy, ere it had been fairly discussed before them, they shewed the impropriety of restricting them at all, and contended they should be left free to ad opt whatever measure they might think best, after "hearing and considering all. And while they did not aim or desire. to secure the adoption of nullification, thev succeeded most triumphantly,. pressed to the contest by their opponents, in put ting down the opposition to it. Who can doubt that it must ultimately triumph, since it does triumph, so far, wherever' it is opposed! Let it be fairlv heard bv tha people, and there is not the least doubt of the res:lt. Athens August 2nd, 1832. Extraordinary Performance bj Steam 2er. -On the occasion of a scientific gentleman .j lately visitibg the Liverpool aud'Manchester railwat, some very ex traordinary, performances were effected. On two occasions, a load amounting to 100 tones was drawn by one .engine from Liverpool to Manchester, a distance of above 30 miles, in an hour. An eight horse waggon, on a common road, is ca-i pable of carrying only eight tons a day. Consequently; would take one hundred horses, working for one day m a turnpike road, to perform the same work as "was here accomplished by a single steam en gine in an hour and a half on the rail-road. It is said that no former performance ef fected on the rail-road has come near this result. . ' " . .'.-:"'- ' ' The Race.r The amateurs of thV turf uere amused on Saturday, by v. race, which, though not in the ;vr ular uaij," excited a very lively in terest. It came off on the Central Course, but not. under the control of the Club, 1000 yards for $1000. The challenge was given to the Un ion by Snowball, from Kentucky, mid was accepted by Arietta, renowned for her speed. The Kentucky horse was apparently lame, when he came to the post, btit some said he had been (aught to dance Nancy Dawson, as Circus horses do the rig-a-doon bets w ere two to one on the mare r the judges decided the race was won by the horse by six inches. A miss, said his friends, is as good a mile. Bait Hep. , Sudden Deaih.- Capt. Joseph, .Hart, (having been diseased for several years with a palpitation at the heart,) got up on the morninsr of the 2 1st inst. as well as usual, as it appeared, though be w;s heard to complain more than usual the. day before. : He rose early, in the morn ing, went to his stables, and thence to his hogpen, and called his hogs; he then walked to the Spring, and on his return, within, about forty steps of the house, he i L...l .. J .1 I .. , , Yta iicciiu iu cry uui veiy auuiieuiy uuu i fell immediately dead. Several of his neighbors were close at hand, and were soon oathc spot. Great exertions were made'to resuiciate him, but in vain, tho blow of death Was too strong for mortal man. - Capt. .Hart was an nncommonly industrious man, and was much respect ed by bis neighbors; he was married on the 27th day of last October, to tho ami able Mary Jenkins, and made her a very affectionate husband, which affection was ardently returned, though it was but a short time they were permitted to enjoy each others presence. Capt. Hart died in the 32d year ot his age, and has lelt behind an affectionate wife and a numer ous host, of friends to sympathize and weep over his tomb. O, may this alar ming circumstance be a loud call to all who ar8 left behind to prepare to meet their God, as "in tfie midst of life we aro in death." Oxford Examiner. Liberality.-We are informed,, says tho New York American, that Mr. L. Salle, merchant, of that city, has made a dona tion of 5000 dollars for the benefit of the poor. Very Singular.

We had the curiosity toexam ine several and found it to be true. Tho paper to which we had raferenre, says that this freak ol nature had created some nlrm. inasmuch as the knowing ones h td found out that the letter was the ini.hi of Blfud or Black Hawk.- IlogenO'zn rrcss. . s
