course Of meritorous and active public service,
eminently calculated to prepare for the duties of
the first civil Office in the country; whose pri-
vate life, in all its relations, presents example





overlooked in the selection of Republican
Chief Magistrate; that in reviewing the measures
Of his administration we can discover no act
whatever which do not meet our decided ap-
| probation, and that we will, therefore, use all
fair and honorable means to support his admins

a tribute due to the high character, splendid

the circumstances involved in the case, while it
IL unsupported BY any evidence which would be
admitted to the prejudice ofany credi1able man
in society.


HesolOed, That the temperance, forbearance
and iirmness displayed by the President of the
United states towards the Governor OF Georgia.
under circumstances of provocaton and indigni-
ty Which we believe have had no parallel in the
history Of our country, give him new titles to our
regatd and appreciation.

William =. Brobson, Robert Porter, Richard
