In this oonviction Macaulay, the historian, and Lord Brougham shared. All the evidence adduced to prove the authorship on Sir Phillip Francis until a recent period was external,, except the similarity ol style, but the iutemal proofs on a comparison of handwriting was re served for a Mr. Chabot, an expert, who had been engaged for a number of years in the examination and comparison of handwriting of various legal instruments. The history of his agency and circum stances that led to it is so curious as to be worthy of recital* The subject in ' ‘tail would occupy too much space. e therefore copy in outline an account of the transaction from the London Quarterly Review for April, under the fol lowing title: EVIDENCE FROM HANDWRITING— -JUNIUS. It appears that in 1770 Mr. Francis l>e- came acquainted with a celebrated belle at Bath, England, who united to great (>ersonal beauty a cultivated mind and rare accomplishments, by the name of Giles, who reoeived a copy of some com pliments, by means of Giles, who receiv ed a copy of some complimentary verses, accompanied by an anonymous note in a different handwriting. The verges aud the note came, subse quently, into the possession, accidently, of a Mr. Twistleton, whose snspioiou became excited that both the verses and the note were written by Francis, who to conceal his agency had disguised his held next On Tuesday last but one sale waa made, consisting of sixty ucres of land in tht* neighborhood of Onk Hill, which was bid off at $750. —Covington JC.catniuer, The corn crop in this section is look* ing line, and tin* grusHgrow* luxurianfly.

The body of the little boy, Willie Pierce, who was accidently drowned on Wednesday afternoon, was recovered yesterday about six P. M. After many unsuccessful efforts of dnigging for it it was determined to adopt another plan.

He soon dis covered that the note and verse* were written by the same person by *nch internal evidence, comparing the mode of forming the letters, a* left little doubt that both were the produc tion of Francis. Bnt to remove all doubt Mr. Twistleton engaged Mr. Chabot pro fessionally ss an expert to oompare the manuscript copies of the letters of Jnnins in the possession of the heirs of Wood- fall, the printer of the Daily Advertiser, In which the letters of Junius appeared, with a large number of Sir Philip Fmn- cis’ private letters. The result of this examination and comparison are em bodied in a report by Mr. Chabot ; the flubstanoe and several of the details ap pear in the Review to whioh we have al- luded. An inspection of the proofs will prove A great curiosity, aa allowing by what vanous signs of similarity the proof oan be brought home with almost mathe matical oertainty of the identity of au thorship, notwithstanding the adroitneM with which the disguise may be affected. Sir Philip Francis’ motives for conceal ing his agency in the composition of those celebrated letters are sufficiently apparent The connection of the parties attacked with the highest nobility of the littltri, with the King, and the judges, would have subjected the author, if known, to numerous suits for libel.

Through the aid of friends we have come to the.conclusion that there is 20 per cent less cotton and 25 per cent more corn planted this than last year, and not half as much guano used. The seasons have been favorable for corn, excepting the continaons hard rains of the past few days, and never more unfavorable for the cotton plant Making up an opinion at this date, and under the circumstances that surround ns, we place the cotton crop prospect on quite unfavorable ground; iu fact do not think the yield will be more than half what it was last war, and congratulate onrselves with the belief that the corn cribs will be at home all over Southwest Georgia, and have some to spare to our Western friends, who have been so kind ns to furnish ns provisions the past few years.—Dawson Journal, 9th.

Iu sucli b rame a Demoerocy al ways lose—lose not only an election but thi-ir self-reliance and self-government. There is another consideration. Parties never take departures but they go much father than their original intention. One departure makes room for another, just as tlie committing of ouu sin leads to >ther. The men who propose depart ure# never reach a point at which they diA r e to halt They novel* lose contidence iu diomselves and are always ready with some new expedient when an old one fttila The more desperate the cas^be- oomes tlie more fertile they are in de vices. A departure is a step in the wrong direction and on an inclined plain. No one can be materially hurt by it except those who take the venture. If the Democratic party cannot suc ceed in adhearing strictly to Democracy, why not disbaud it ? Why not distinctly aver the ground of departure ? Why not state from what we are to depart ? And why not let Democrats know to what they are to go ? Is there not some thing rotyeff in a party that takes “ de- oartures* to gain political victories ?— _ust it not be feeble and corrupt ? A party that is strong iu faith, in discipline, and in intelligence never thinks of tak ing a departure. It has uo occasion to take departures. But it renews its vigor by constantly rallying to its creed. Its principles arc the watch words of its loaders and its masses are inspired with enthusiastic devotion. No surer sign of internal weakness could be given tliau the disposition of the Democratic party to abandon De mocracy. It# disintegration will follow shortly if it is not speedily rescued from the hands of those who are running it into a silly, immortal and impracticable chase after power. But let no one be disheartened. The cause of Democracy cannot perish. Parties may die, but while we have a Democratic people De mocracy will survive. The party may abandon it, but the Democratic people need not despair. They themselves are the omnipotent power in the laud. Par ties and politicians are more creatures. The Democratic people cud make and unmake them with their breath. If one set of men will not serve the Democracy another will, and tho best place to look for faithful leaders is in the renka. The u Red OlltV , History* As the old “red cent” has now passed out of use find, except rarely, out of sight, tike the “old oaken bucket,” its history is a matter of sufficient interest for preservation. The cent was first pro posed bv Robert Morris, tho great finan cier of the Revolution, and was named by Jefferson two years after. It began to make it# appearance from the mint iu 1792. It bore the bead of Washington on one side and thirt- eu links ou the other. The French R v 1 ition soon cre ated a rage for French ideas in Amerim, which put on the cent, instead of the head a# Washington, Dip IimhiI ol Uxe Goddess of Liberty—French liberty, with flowing locks. The chniu on the revprse was repine il by the olive-wreslh of ponoe. But rt\- French liberty wss short-lived, and »> was her portrait on our oeut.. The next lesul or figure sno- ceediog thin—the staid, clussic dame, with n fillet around her hair—came into fashion about thirty or forty years ago, and her finely chiseled Grecian features have been bnt slightly altered in the lapse of time. The InterasHsBRl Typographi cal UnUin Tlie Baltimore Sun, in s|>eakin^ of this body, now in session in that city, pa vs it a high compliment. It says: •• Tho proceedings were characterized with a dignity, decorum and harmo ny seldom win mused iu bodies repre senting every section of tho Umon, and iu these respeota ailbrda an ex ample wortfiv of imiuumu by other legislative bodies oi' greater preten- sioua.
