- Fodi 1iM tiiet Republio; 24th lust. Proniamatiu by the Gov't of Georgia. Uso. W. TowNs, Gov'R OF SAID STATE, o the Electors 'TIheref, Gireetineg .Hnving been officially informed, timt the ' Congress of the United States has admit ted Califorpia into the Union of the States of the Confederacy, upon equal terms with the original States, a duty devolves upon me, in the performance of which, I shall - trespass upon the public but briefly. An i nfeigned deference for public opin-. ion, and the profound regard I entertain for this w istfom, tirnnhess and) patriot ism of my fellow cit tens of Georgia will not ju "tity me, in a paper of this character, in repeating my known and unc!tnnged opinions as to the chry of the-South in repelling Free-soil encroachment, and arrestiig, by all proper moans, ururpation by Congress. Whatever is compatible wish the honor and obligations of the people of this State to the country, its laws, and its institu tiollS, I doubt not, will receive their warm tu pport. In an hour of danger-who your insti tutions arejn jeapordy-your feelings wan. tonly outraged, your social organizaition derided, your honor deeply wonmied and the Federal Constitution violated by a series ot aggressive measures, all tending to the contsuttnation of one object, the abolition of slavery-when your equal rght to occupy and enjoy the common to rritory of all, has been denied you, in the solemtn form of law, under prote'ces tbhe most shal low, it well becomes you, to assemble, to deliberate, and counsel together for your mutual preservation and safety. Whatever course the extraordinary events by which we are encompassed, will demand or justify, must he leit, as it should he, to the patriotism, firmness, and prn denre of the people thern.elves. Upon them devolves the duty of redressing pres e et wropgs, and providing other safe . *uards, for fuffro security. Neither the e nor the other of which, lowever, will ever he efyectually accomplished, until, by patriotic efforts, perfect harmony and con ccord of feeling are restored, and confidence and concert of action produced among the people of the South. In view, therefore, of the atrocious free soil sentiment and policy, not mletely of the non-slaveholding States, but of th, Governmeut-of the imminent peril to which the institution of slavery is redluced by the act of Congress admitting the State of California into the Union, with a constitt tion containing the principle of the Wilmot Proviso, in defiance of our warning and earnest retnonstrance; in view of the de plorable fact that some diversity of opinon exists in some of the Southern States as to the proper mode of redressing the wrongs and averting the du.gers which all must ee and feel, let mie, fellow-citizens, earnestly entreat you to cultivate for eact ether a deep and abiding sentiment of fra ternal retrard and confidence, and approaci the task, from which there is no eseape, at deciding upon your duty to Georgia and the country with a firm step. but not wits out calm, deliberate, and patient investiga tion, consulting neither fears or dangers on the one handr nor permitting yourselves .a i uui'ed'toexrene enlue' ures, which have not rekeived- the full sanction of your judgment. 'T'hen I shall not despair of seeing the whole State, as one man, proposing nothing beyond what the emergency may demand, or failing to perform whatever patriotism, honor and right, may require at your hands. The General Assembly of this State, by an act applroved 8th February, 1850J. hav ing requiredl me, upon the happening of certain events, one of which is the admis sion of California as a State into the Union, to issue a proclamation, ordering an i ec tiqon to be held ini each and every couity - fot' Delegates to a Conventiont oif thme i'eo ple of this State, to take into conside-ration such measures as comport with th- extrai dinary posture of our relations to our co .8tates, and to decide upJonI what steps are ntecessary and proper to be takeni compaI ti ile with cur honor and constitutiontal obili 'gations, aswell as more effectually to so cure our right of property in slaves, al to arrest, all aggressions, byonie seetion oftthe Union, upon the free enjoymnent of thle Cona stitut innai rights of the other, and list lv to preserve inviolate the egnality of l he States of the Union, as guarantied under the Con stitultion.

To execute this request, "fortlwith," R ottlde, in iny judgment, be unwise and itm i.tic.

Upon so vital a point, we think, his Excellency should not be left to the uncertain testimony of maps, globes and geographies, prepared by Christkins, who had nointerest in ascertnining the truth with exact certainty. Should his Excellency continue to say his prayers, as he now does, with his face to the East, it may pos. sibly turn out, that ie will not only lose the benefit of all his prayers in this country, but that he will also incur the just indigna tion of his Prophet, for turning his back up on him.

This Mr. Editor a you are aware is the sixth Divisiui of this order in Sumter Dis. trict, and the second )ivision in Lower Salem. Suppose sir thit some ton years ago, a mnn had stated, that, in about ten years from that time,a great change would he wrought in society-that 6 powerful and efficient associations for the suppreskm of intemperance would be foriei in Sumter District, and supposr further, that sundry persons had been named who would he zealous advocates of the reform which had taken place. Wno - sir, think you would have believed it-would he not have been considered a madman I the world said a few years ago, let thorn alone, why will you waste your strength and spend your time for naught :.men will drink, and it is fohy* to think of reclaiming the drun'kard : it is a harren steril soil; duderent inodes of culture have been, tried in fain, ttiti tnehi il-accurv. ed and will remain so till doomsday. But thanks to the benevolence of the age, bet.. ter mo'des of cultivation have been discor. ered an'l what has been the resuilt. A short time has .passed away and behiod the field is already waving with a rich and abundant harvest;, the world look. onm with astonishmnent and exclaims who could have beleived it. Yes, indeed, it is won. derful, who could have be;ieved that in se short a time the whole aspect of society would lbe changed-drunkards, grog-,hopi and tippling becomo unpopular and unfash-. ionable. But such is the fact. No mian that has much regrard for Ihis character wvillinow be seen staggering about a dogery or grog shop, and if he should have the brightest, fairest and mest untarnished character be., nteath the sun, and thus be seen, he will not, cannot retain it. long--the day or rather night for such things has passed) away-nti Mr. Editor. I congratulate you, andl every other friend of humanity anid good Order that such chlange has been brought about I do not mean to say air that intemperance and the beverage use of strong drink h is been banished from our District, but that a great. change has, in regard to these things, takeni place neonc but the wi lfuhiy blind can deny. I need not say a word shout the geuntlemren that compose Lynches Creek Dvision, you know them sir, and well know that the-y are men of the right grit: and ini conclusion I say, Hurrah for Lynches Creek Division-h urrah for Sum. ter District-hurrah tar the old Palmetto State, and Ihuirrah for the universal temper ance reformation.
