Gartrell, whil speaking, turned to Mr. Hill, ami propoun ded tliis question : “Mr. Hill, if the Kansas Convention should form a constitution, tolerating slave ry. and should apply for admission into th I'nion as a State, and Congress should re fuse to admit her ou account of her consti tution tolerating slavery, wonld you, if elec ted Governor, call a convention of the peo ple of Georgia, to take into consideration the mode and measure of redress ?’’ Mr. Hill made no reply 1 Col. Gartrell said, “ he is silent!" Col. Gartrell then called to him in a loud er tone of voice, and said, “ Mr. Hill, if the Kansas Convention should form a con stitution, tolerating slavery, and should ap ply for admission into the Cnion as a State, and Congress should refuse to admit her on account of her constitnudn tolerating slav. ry, would you, if elected Governor, call convention of the people of Georgia, to take into consideration ihe made and measure of redrpss1" Mr. Hill made no reply! Col. Gartrell, pointing to him, said. “ h is mum /” Col. Gartteil then called to him in a still louder voice, “Mr. Hill, if the Kansas Con- ventrou should form a constitution, tolera ting slavery, and should apply for admis sion into the Union as a State, and Con gress should refuse to admit her on account ot her constitution, toleratingslavery, would , —.— , —r— ,, , yon, if elected Governor, call a cotiyention H ,.

Gartrell said, ‘the Legislature have passed such an act.’ Mr. Hill replied, ‘no, they have not.’ Col. Gartrell then said, 1 yes, they have,’ and calling to Mr. Morrell, a lawyer in the crowd, said, ‘have- you the Acts of the last Legislature at your officeV Mr. Merrell replied, ‘1 have. 4 Then,’said Col. Gartrell, ■ w hen this discussion is over, get the Acts of the last Legislature and turn to page Inf, and look under the title, 4 Con vention,’ and you will find the, act making it the duty of the Governor to call a conven tion. on the happening of such a contingen cy, prescribing the time within which it shall be dene, and providing for the pay of the members. Stand upon the piana of th* hotel, and read it to these people. And, said he, ‘gentlemen, hear in mind that this may he the moat important duty that the next Governor of Georgia may have to per forin. and titer* sits candidate for Govern or. ' pointing to Mr. Hill,) and lie did not knoie of the existence of the act. Mr. Hill rose to his feet, and said, * there has been no session of the Legislature since tb* late difficulties in Kansas, and liovr could there have been such an act passed V Col. tyrtrell replied, ‘no!—there has been no session oi the Legislature since that time, unless it h is been a A note frothing sessin* that the people know nothing about. Hut the last Legislature foreseeing the danger, anticipated it, and passed an act expressly- providing for the contingencyand, said he, (pointing again to ID Hill) ‘I repeat, there sits a candidate for Governor of Geor gia, who is going about teaching the demo cracy, Irho did not know of Hut art w hich prescribes one of his most important dntie* i if elected. 4 The blind lead Lite blind, and both fall into the ditch.’ Our readers can readily imagine the con fusion which Tested upon the countenance of Mr. Hill, and the startling effect which was produced upon the audience. Mr. Hill stiil withheld an answer to the question, and did not and would not answer whether he would, on the happening of the contingen cy, obey the act and call tin- convention or not. He makes great pretensions of fideli ty to the South, but when the time for ac tion comes, he falter*, and will not pledge himself to stand by her! Let Georgians bear this in mind! So far as we have been able to learn, Mr. Hill has not yet answered the question. This is the most important plank in the 4 Georgia platform,' becau-e likely to he the most practical; and the people should trust no one with power who doubts or hesitates to take position on it. Judge Brown ha* already proclaimed loan assembled audience that he should not hesitate a moment to dis- charge his duty on the happening of the contingency. 111., Wav OK LouJUMO AT IT.—Magistrate — 4 What lias brought you here !'

Burned—Loss Thirty Thou sand Dollars. Our citizens had become uneasy ou Tuesday evening after two o'clock, in consequence cf the non-arrival of tbe train of cars on the Ala bama and Tennessee road,and this uneasy state of the public mind existed until obout dark, when Mr. Wait, the road master, arrived at the depot, io a hand car, bringing the sad news of the destruction by fire cf the spacious rail road bridge Butt spanned the Coosa river. Tbe fire wus discovered by the watchman stationed there about one o'clock on Friday morning, and in less than two hours after its discovery, nothing was left of this magnificent piece of workmanship but the pillars It is said that tbe lire was communicated to some seven or eight different p’aces o - the bridge. The regular posseoger irain of cars passed over the bridge going up about 2$ o’clock on Friday evening, and the Divison Master passed over about dark the same evening, and be was the iast person known to have passed the bridge. The train of carswhich passed over the bridge on Friday evening, consisting of a locomotive tender, two passenger and a box car, is left on tbe East side of the river, ami will there re main until th* Iwidge is rebuilt, which we leant tbe company are now taking steps to do at as early a moment as possible. The probability is that tbe cars will be crossing the river again in two months. Tbe lose is estimated to be about 830,000, and of course will be felt by the company ser iously just at this time, but will not retard the progress of laying the track as soon as the iron arrives. A • Wild Cat’ and No Mistake.—The Augusta Chronicle has at last, after the wildest kind of a hunt, and that under diffi culties, jumped a real, bona foie ‘Wild Cat,’ of the bob tail species, Somebody, a short Umc-aince, showed the editor of that paper a five dollar bill on ‘The Bank of Morgan,' Morgan, Ua., signed by J. H. Smith, Cash ier, tlie name ot the President being illegi ble. and the Postmaster at Morgan assures the editor that there is no such Bank at that place. We congratulate the editor of the Chronicle or. his success, and hope he will have a good time in worrying the critter. Hee ! tissy hoy ! seize him!—shake him, fellow! By the way, if the editor could see how one of his ‘Wild Cats’ up this way was worrying some of the tame specimens of the feline generation, we opine he would tremble in his hoots like a two year old earthquake.—Columbus Sun. i Diplomatist “ Running with the Machine' — Mr. rita-ckl, the Russian minister to the United States, with his wife, is said to he at bn favorite summer resort in Newport.— Like his predecessor, Mr. Bodiseo, he evin ces, both by his marriage with an accomp lished daughter of Massachusetts, and by his associations and manners, the desire of his government to preserve an intimate foot ing with our own. We understand that his success in fusing with some of our most popular institutions is a nut unlrequent sub ject ot self-congratulation, and that he jocose ly boasts that during the fifteen years when he was an attache of the legation,-he was al so a member ot a Washington fire company, and * ran wid do lantern.’ F.iteaordinary Vrices for Tobacco.—J. A. Hamiter sold lately at Friend’s Warehouse, a lot of tobacco raised by Wm. B. Bowie, of North Carolina, for the unprecedented price of three hundred and ten dollars per hundred. The lot conlainsone hundred and twenty pounds, and was purchased by Wm. Crumpton. Mr. H. also sold for the same gentleman one lot for one ininderd and fifty dollars per hundred weight, which was pur chased by T. Love k Eons. These, we be lieve, are the highest prices ever paid for to bacco in the Lynchburg market, and we pre sume, the highest ever paid in the State, -even in the United States. Alluding to the *25,000 salary to he paid to the newly elected President of the Erie Railroad U'o., the N. Y.

It is held that tb* order* were lawful and that the punish ment was inflicted by Capt. Wilkes in the proper discharge of hw duty. The Attorney General says: " ‘No man of common prudence would enter the pubiio service if he knew the performance of bis duty would render him liable to be plugged to death with law suits, which be must carry on at hb own expense; therefore, Capt. W like* fought to bo refunded the sum be is nut of pocket by tbe litigation, although it was finally determined in bis favor. The instructions to Gov. Oummthg were completed id day.

Whilo Got. C.’s powers arc am ple for all practical purposes, much is con- tided to his discretion. Two sous of Col. Pitchlynn, the Agent and Representative of the Choctaw Indians with the General Government, who were last An* toran convicted in Kansas of an assault with intent ta kijl, and sentenced to three years im prisonment in the Penitentiary, have been ordered to be set ut liberty by the President, it appearing that the testimony against them embraced no allegation of malice or'fores thought, and they were universally esteemed peaceable and good citizens,and further, that the mein witness of the prosecution bad otlered to be bought off by the friends of the accused Soaking IlooD in Gin.—It appeared best to the excise commissioners of the town of M , of northern Now York, to refuse license for the sale of intoxicating liquors to all persons save a doctor of known integ rity and strong temperance principles, who promised not to sell except for medicinal or mechanical purposes. One Wheeler—an eccentric Irish cobbler—longed for a quiet drink, and, with a sober air and a smooth tongue, petitioned the doctor for a quart of gin. ‘ For what purpose do you wish it!’ asked the doctor. ‘Sure, doctor, I’ve been very had fornear- lyjten days hack >vith a groat sorencs* in my stomach, and not a haper of good can 1 get from anything in these turns but gin to soak some roots in.’ ‘ And do you tell me upon your honor, Wheeler, that yon only wish the gin to soak some roots' In, and to he taken as a medicine for a weak stomach V 1 Faith, as [ live, doctor, I only want the gin to soak some roots.' The doctor, confident from ills sallow ap pearance, that the man was sick, and that a little tonic hitters would not harm him, filled his quart bottle ami received his pay. Wheel er, on reaching the sidewalk, fronted the doctor, who was still standing in the door, placed his thumb upon hi.- nose, and mado sundry gyrations with the lingers, while with the other hand lie placed the bottle to his mouth, and took a long, invigorating guzzle of the gin. “ Stop !’ cried the doctor, 4 you gave your honor that you only wanted the gin to soak some roots, and here you are drinking your self dead drunk.’ 4 Faith, doctor, and Pm alter telling you no lies. I wanted the gin sure to soak tire- roots of nte old tongup, which was so dry I could never swallow a mouthful of meat t strengthen my stomach.’ The doctor, like his gin, was sold. SunstrokeDuring the extreme hot sene son, when sunstrokes are so common, it be hooves every body to know what is to be done in case of emergency, when no physician can be procured immediately. Tbe effect produced on the brain by a sunstroke is very similar to that produced by a concus.;ioD,uud the primary treatment should be precisely the sanr. The best practice thisis to give n diffiiHcd’stirnnluvof carbonate of ammonia is the best io this case, as having a specific action on the nervous sys tem. This should be followed in a short time by a tonie, of which quinine i3 the best, for the same reason as above given, and after that a cathartic. In the absence of these remedies the best snlwtituths, which are easily accessi-, ble, are brandy and capsicum. The first men tioned remedies may be considered tut follows: Take 20 grains of carbonate of atmnonia, a teaspoonful of powdered gum arabic, and a winegla«sful of water, und stir them together. Tbe addition of two grains of gum camphor would also be advisable. In administering brandy, a wineglassful containing nearly half a teaspoon!uI of capsicum nitty be given.— Putting ice to the head is deleterious,although ice water applied by means of a cloth has sometime i been thought beneficial. It is not by any means t-sacntial, however, and its ud- vuntagtfl are doubtful. A mustard piaster to the abdomen is often of great use.

George Boone would have stood well in those days when there were giants in.the land- He was near seven ffect high, with large bones and muscles;] his bands were large, bat bis feet were beyond anything of tho kind 1 have ever seen in length, breadth, and depth. 1 can beat give some idea of them by relating an incident that George used to relate with n gusto after he be came ope of our State Senators. '1 was about 18 vears of age, when for tbe first time I took it into m; bead to go a speok- iug. One of my neighbors, a few miles off, had a large, pretty daughter that I thought would just suit me. It was late in the fail, and the weather pretty cold; stili it was too early to put on shoes. The Sund ty evening had come; i dressed in my best butternut colored suit, made some six month* before, but soon found that dm pairtuloons reacheil only just be* low my knee-, and my coat stretched over nte as tight us a dried cel skin on a hoop pole. I started bareloot, wading tho creeks and mnddy bottoms till 1 reached the house. They were about silting down to supper, and iuvited me. Sally sat by my aide. VVebad mush and milk, aud plenty of it- The old lady handed me a largo howl. I thought politeness required me to meet her, at least halfway, aud stretched out my baud to take it; but I had made no calculation of the siz; of that table, the space between the milk pitcher and the bowl, nor of the width of my hanJ. 1 struck the big milk pitcher ou one side, and ont went the milk over the table. Solly jumped up ami went roariug with laugh ter imo the other room. The old lady merely remarked: “It will all rub off when it gets dry and the old man said; “There hud greater accidents huppoued ut sea.' But it was all over with me. J saw that all was lost. Not a word more wus spoken. I saw notbiug more of Sally. The clock struck ten. ‘Mr. Boone, wout yon wash your feet and go to bed?'' said the old lady. ‘Yes m-t’ain.’ ‘Here is an iron pot all I have suitable.” 1 took the uot aud found It so small that 1 could only get my feet imo it by sliding them iu sideways; but I got them in and soon found them swelling tighter and tigh ter, uutil the pain was.so great that the sweat rolled off my chin. The clock struck eleven. ‘Mr. Boone, are yon not done washing your feet?’ 'What did this pot cost? I must break the infernal thing-' ‘A dollar.’ ‘Bring me tbe ax. ‘Here it is.' I took the axe, broke the pot to pieces, handed the old lady the dollar, opened the door, anil never saw her ofterwurds. 1 met Sally at a huskingseveralyears afterwards,and us we met she roared out laughing. A FIUUT in the senate. But the end of George was not yet. He grew up to be a man and a colonel, anu like Saul of old, wus chosen t6 lead the people- lie became a Slate Senator and an able debater. Ilia fig ure was so tall and commanding, his voice so strong loud und clea ;r bis manner so plain and unassuming, his coolness and known courage such that he was both respected and dreaded us an opponent- While he was in the Senate a warmly contes ted question came up for debate. Ratcliff Boon, Leut. Governor, in the chair The (Jol. Was tne leader c-foue side of the question, and a Senator, about four feet teu, limbs in propor- tiou, with a voice likea-lvatydid,' led the other side. The chamber was crowded. The Col. rose with his eyes tipou the chair,and wus speaking ut the top of his voice. ‘That's a lie,’ equaled out the little opposition Senator. ‘As I was Buying Mr. President—” "That's a lie.’ ‘As I was saying—'' ‘That's a lie,’ in the same sqnukiug voice. -As I was say ing—” The little Senator could stand it no longer; sprang over the railing, run,-round to where tho Col. was standing, and struck him with all his might on the back, • As I was saying, Mr President—;” the blows repeated several times while the Col., without taking the least notice of it, continued to address the Senate until he closed his speech, then turning hi* eye upon his opponent, ‘What nre you doing?' • What am I doing; ‘I’m fighting.’ Who are yon fighting?’ ‘I’m fighting you.” ‘Jfe! 1 had no knowledge of it whatever.’ The sergeant at-arms stepped up aud carried the little Senntor away in a state ot exhaus tion. A glass of wine and the friendly hand of the Col. soon put all things to rights, aud the debate proceeded. A German Girl Mail for Lore.—A beau tiful German girl of Cincinnati,named Hannah Itootker, went suddenly mad on Sunday, on being told by her father that she should not marry a feHow countryman to whom she had becD enguged for some months with the full expectation of iK.-comii)g his wife.

Nothing could be doneto calm or appease her; she grew worse ami worse, until it wus determined to re move her to the hospital. When there, site continued to rave, and would ltuve died from exhaustion before this, had not chloroform been administered to keep her quiet, it was found necessary, too, to bind her to the floor, else she would have taken her own life, leaped out of the window, or done anything desperate.
