ALFRED IVERSON, The Impending Crisis, SOUTHERN UNITY VS. NORTHERN FANATICISM—LET- TER OF A DISTINGUISHED GEORGIAN. [from the Charieston Mercury.) We invite attention to the subjoined communication. It will be seen that it is a reply to a letter containing certain inquiries, which are apparest enough from the er. ‘We present the letter as Yurnishing, in our opinion, « fair exponent of the state of the public mind in Georgia, inasmuch es its distinguished author is ina situation to observe all the indications of public sentiment, and pos. ectees the calm and sound judgment necessary to forming acorrect conclusion. In these respects, as well as for the sound views expressed, the letter deserves the moat care- ful consideration: — Drax Sinm—Your letter of the 29ih ult., proposing to ‘me certain inquiries relative to the probable action of the opie of Georgia, in the event of the electioa of Lincoln, as been received. From all I can learn! think Georgia will sever her ton. necticn with this Union in the eveat of Lincoln's election. At the same time It is due to candor and truth to give it as my opinion that there will be a large party in the State who will oppose any action upon such a contingency. If she Coes not secede, I cannot understand what other action he will take, unlese it is to submit. It strikes me that whatever propositions will have to make to her sister Southern States will after she resumes her independence among the nations of the earth. It occurs to mé that the action of South Carolina, while it would be agreeable to the people of G to bave ber co-operation, will not influence her . if she has determined to secede, or control them, if she has not reached that pcint. : My opixion is that if South Carolina recede from the Union the people of Georgia will defend her inthe exer- Cio of that right to the last extremity. If South Carolina or apy other State determines to secede, it should be done by a State Convention. The time of secession should take place on the 4th of March next. and due notice be served on Congress through the Execu- tive of the United States. Ido not believe m any South. ern State waiting the action of their sisters. If, in their sovereignty, they do not thipk the cause for a separa tion is gufficient, but will co-operate with others that they do, they are not from that motive that should defy revolution and resist oppression at any and bazards Besides, | consider ew State action resuming all the powers de! the federal government which they bave abandoned, essential to consistency at least, before they enter ato alliance, league, confederation y or ‘with any other power whatever.
