UtVllKDAY MORNING, July 0. vo been phueeri in tho field, been re* iwiiCD'ilngft anion of all U»® ®I®- inputs in Goorgia opposed to the heresy r,r SquatterSovereignty. Thiswooon* ider of such importance to the success ,f our principles and to the South, that vo again bring it before thoso interest* J in its accomplishment. We think ve do not overestimate when wo say tliero nro ninety thousand voters in (joorgia who utterly repudiate Mr Doug* his and ids doctrines. Wo do not bolieve thoronroono thou* •viud who will vote for him upon prin ciple, that is who agree with him in his polltionl views. Gov. Johnson himself -vho hdsaccopted the nomination for Vice-President, upon tho sumo tlckot with him, in Ids letter to tho Albany Patriot/’ said, that “tho right of tho South to doraand, and tho duty of Con poss to extend protection to persons um^proporty of ovory kind, (including s’nviiry) in the territories during their territorial Sato” was “no new opinion,” that ho had “advocated tho dootine ns I'.w hack as 1848, in the 8enato of tho i - tilted States,” and os to tho olinrge of splatter Sovereignty ho ••repollod tho nsiuuntion .so fur as it was intended to apply to him, cow© from what quarter it might, and plead Ids own rocord in vindication.” 'Again, as ohairman of tho coimnittco appointed by tho Bogus Convention in Milledgovillo in Juno last, to propare an addresss to the Dem* -•‘ratio Party of Georgia, ho “utterly de nied tho charge, repollod the imputa* lion,” end as tho host ovidonco of his rdnoority pointed to tho platform which had been adopted by his Conven tion. And such is tho position of thousands who w ill bo led by him and others into the support of Mr. Douglas. We liavo no idea that tho number thus carried over will exaeed twonty thousand, leav ing a clear majority of soventy thousand •uinst them. Then why should this .vvote he ho divided as to render it inef- loci ual in accomplishing what issomuch lcsired by all? Why should they not bo united upon j.'ii ;iikI honorable terms? Thore need :-e no compromise of principle, for in this there is a cordial agreoment. All that will bo necessary will bo the aban donment of party prejudices and pro* dilections, and what aro tlicso comparod lo tho triumph of principles, the good of our country and tho honor of tho South ? Wo should bo disposod to ques* lion that man’s patriotism who would refuse to cast thorn asido under such t imimstancos. According to tho law of Goorgia a majority of all the votes cast is nocos* ,\i v to a choice of tho electoral ticket, md in tho event of a failuro to elect by • people tho ohcico shall bo made by neral Assembly. Wo do not think nt either Bell, Bvcckcnridgeor Doug*, can p< a ilbly get this .minority. Mr. <nglaB will roceivo the smallest voto, : it will bo lurge enough to defoat Mr. i ockenridgo. Then the election will -yn into the Legislature and as intimated 1 *y tho Chronicle & Sentinel in its issue of Sunday morning, it will bo mado sub set viont to tlio election of United States Sepator. Principle will not control tho vote tlioro. Tho will oftlio people may 1h) utterly disregarded. They are then deeply interested in proventing its be ing brought boforo that body. Then what plan do wo proposo? W o answor, tho one suggested by the Hon, B. 11. Hill, that a common electoral ticket be nominated, composed of fivo from tho Constitutional Democracy and live from tlio Constitutional Union Par ty, and that they bo instructed to cast the Vote of the State of Georgia for Bell or Brockenridge, according ns it shall Bo most effectual in defeating Douglas. What oltfoctioti can bo urged against this ? Wo defy any one to give . us a roason based upon principle? No man will objeot to it except thoso who go for party in preforonoe to everything else. ' r - Then we call upon the Conventions about to assemble to adopt this plan and tho people will rntify by such an ovorwholraing voto as will completely route the Douglnsites in this Slate. In this way our principles will surely bo triumphant. Nothing will bo lost, and everything gained. The Japanese Ball* Of this splendid affair the New York Day Book give* the following condensed Sefore 8 o’clock, long lines of carria ges Hanked Broadway. Thoptnnibusses Were turned out of tho grand thorough fare, and for two or throe squares up and down from tho Metropolitan Hotel, there wero only carriages to bo seen, and pedestrians all bent upon getting to the ball-room. The Theatre was decorated in porgo- ous stylo. Tho baiednies wore lined with lunterns.nnd tho entrances draped with flags. The decorntions of the stage of Niblo’s theater wove unusually flue. The stago was plat formed to the first row of boxes. Thoro wore two orcliostras for the the* ntro, one at tho sides ot tho lower stage box, and the other opposite In tho cor ner of the socond circle. Tho saloons also had their music. Dancing was en joyed with groat UitHculty, ns tlio throng was so dense as to prevent anything likt freedom of motion. The Japancsospent very little of thoir time in the hall room. The Princess remained not over half mi hour. Kven “Tommy” did not mnke himself as conspicuous ns usual. Tho supper rooms were literally cram med, and although there was an impres sion that every one could ho ut-commo- dated, tho rush of tho roughs and the ill bred; prevented quiet people from at tempting to enter them. There wore 180 waiters in at tendance, and 10,000 bottle of champagne were consumed, but a lurge portion of thoso present wore not aware of the fact until they road the accounts in the morning papers. Of course, at such a ball the company could not be very tided. 11 is said that n great many spurious tickets wero ad mitted and tlmt very many hard charac ters used them. Kvery type of our city life was represented there. Many ridic ulous and somo mean tilings wore done, but taken all in nil, the ball was as good as could bo oxpooted under tho circum stances. If tho Japaneso aro satisfied, our worthy Aldermen and Oounciltucii should be congratulated, What n Small Beginning may Effect* Tho Boston Advertiser (Hep.) furnish es tlio following interesting romhiis- cenco: At a recent political meeting in Cam bridge, an advocate of tlio Boll and Kv* crott ticket related tho following as an example of what may bo done, oven with a small beginning. “Somo forty years ago,” said he, “when I wasn young man, residing in Brighton, I received a circu lar calling for meetings to bo hold to chooso doYcgotea to Lexington, to nom inate a candidate for Congress. I pub lished tho notice and tho meeting was bold. Two persons wero present—a friend and myself. Wo organised, and ho voted for mo and I voted lor him. and we both attended the Lexington Convention ns delegates. At tho old Muuroo Tavern we met six other dele gates, and in a bedroom of tlmt tavern wo nominated our candidato, whom af terwards our party sont to tlio llouso.— Tho man of our choice was then Profess or of Greek in Harvard University, and that was the commencement of his long and honorable career. Ilia numu Edward Everett.” Bhtikspeare and Walter Scott* Shakspeoro and Scott wore both great in their perception and discrip- tion,of character; not equally so, it must bo acknowledged, yet both shownn inti mate acquaintance with thoso springs of tlio heart, whioh are tho machinery of notion, and prompt mankind to tho good and evil. The dramatist sketches with moro delicate pencilling that often times renders necessary close study, ami deep investigation nnulyzo his method of working, and to make his individu als pcrfectlyjjoomprohosibln; he is a deep thinkor, n philosopher in the science of tho mind, rovenling its se crets through an almost mysterious pro cess Tho gold of humanity, so to speak, is frequently so overlaid with tho world’s dross ns to bo )>erceptib!e only at inter vals, ifsearchorl after; and again, the dross is so concealed in tlio mngnli cence of its setting—the pomp ancl pa- gentry of ideas and lnngugo, that one almost loses sight oftlio worthless uuihs, or passes it over ns an iiunoticenblc tiling. .Scott, on tlio contrary draws Ids character* generally, with a bold and fearless hand—there is scarcely a possibility of mistaking them; virtue and vice arc up|mrent at u glance. IDs readers aro not led astray by a sort of ynis futuus phantom, tlio’ siilistnnco of .vldcii none can realise; Ids characters 'stand forth with an individuality, mid a stamp of truth, that is easily recog nisable amid ull richness or coloring given to his pictures. Swiftness ok Biuus. —A Gorman orni thologist says: “The vulture can fly at tho rate of one hundred uud fifty miles an hour. Ob servations made on the coast of Labra dor, convinced Mnior Cartwright that tho wild goose can travel nt the rate of ninety mdes an hour. The' common crow can fly twenty-five miles; swallows according lo S|>nllngiu, ninety miles an hour. It is said that n falcon was dis covered at Malta twenty-four hour* af ter tho dc|mrture of Henry IV, from Fontainhlciiu. If true, this must liavo flown fifteen hours at tlio rate of fifty- seven miles, not allowing him to rest a moment during tho whole of this time.” Tho rice bird, which afterwards bo- conics the reed bird of Delaware Bay, and tho bolmliuk of New York, is often found below Philadelphia with green rico in its crop. Indeed, this is said to ho true of pigeons during tho rico grow ing season. ftSydt is a curious and interestiiq fact, though fow, perhaps, arc aware o it, that tlio tustes of different countries In regard to the stylo of jewelry uro su decidedly different, that particular designs aro required for different coun tries. For instance, in tho enso of the ornamentation on tho backs of watch es, each country has its favorito style.— For Franco, the general stylo is a small bonuot, or a shield with a few flowers, with a vory narrow border; the ground either straight barley or a fancy pattern of engine-turning.

A correspondent of tho Boston Transcript writing from tlmt pluco, May 31, thus describes tlio lady: She would be culled ugly by thought less persons, but the more discrimina ting pronounce her intelligent and in teresting in appearance. Miss Evans is a woman of forty (probably,) tail in stn- ture, large in build, "f fair complexion, golden hair, line l* vth, light eyes, long nose, and the face is altogether long. In the liuaviin .-K oi jaw and highness of cheekbone, she greatly resembles a Ger man. The expulsion of her face is g entlo mid amiable, while her ninnnor i particularly timid and retiring.

John Bell's Record on Slfivcry* In a formor number we offered some reflections upon the sutyect of platform*, showing tlio truo moaning of the term, and maintaining that for all practical purpose the nominee of the Union par- y stood pledged to tho country, in the event of ids election, to administer the govormnent upon a lino of polioy that liss already been specially and distinct ly marked out— tliat he is ns truly up on a platform, and as much bound to observoita principles, us any cnndidnto that lias over been presented to tho Amcricun people. The record of his public service, wo contended, was his platform, and Ids letter of acceptance distinctly pledged him to adhere to it in all the contingencies of tho future. In tho conclusion of tho article refer red to, wo promised, on another day, to examino the rocord as it stands upon tlio journals of Congress, and to array the truth against certain slandors that liavo been vaguely uud without specifi cation, uttered against Mr. Bell by the subservion t tools of ids policicul enemies. Wo proposed to test Ids fidelity to south ern institutions by a rehearsal of ids arte, and by them to lot the peoplo jntlgo whether or not ho is entitled to their confidence mid support. 11Jwere impo*siL lo, in the shortspace ot an uditoral article, to review tho en tire record of Mr. Bell on tho subject of slavery, running, as it docs, through a long series of years. Wo would stato generally, however, and without tho slightest hesitation, that Ids enemies cannot point to u single voto in all that record that is hostile to tho inter ests of ids section. Wo challcngo them to tho tusk. No man, North or South, lias a better, purer record. Why, then, has ho been suspected and denounced us unsound, and not to be trusted ? We wid givo the reason in a few words: simply becuuso it 1ms been tho policy of oftlio Democratic party of tho .South, for many year past, to set up a standard of thoir own, by wiiich all men are to bejtidged for the time being, and to be pplnudod or denounced according as ley conform to such arbitrary test.— Clay, Taylor. Toombs, Stephens and a host of others, Southern men and slave holders, wore ail unsound in their clay, simply for tho reason that they repudi ated tId*standard und had tlio in leneii- denco to think for themselves, in 1854 the Kansas hill was set up ns a stand ard by this same party, and because Mr. Bell ropiKliatod t and voted against It us an insiduous swindlo a Grecian Horse tlmt contained within itself the materi als for the overthrow of the rights ol the South, he was straightway set down as untrue to Ids section and for no oth er eauso tho blood hounds of party have pursued his footsteops from that day to this. This is the true history of the case, and tho cry is still kept up in spite of the fact that this vory Kansas hill 1ms proved just what Mr. Bell said it was, uud is now universally denounc ed throughout the South by the Demo- C'ate IheniMclvee; nay, rather than sub mit to its doctrines, the Southern De mocracy have absolutely abandoned thoir own national organization uud set up for themselves. As to tho rest of Mr. Bell’s course In Congress, on the slavery question, cannot do better than copy from ublu article, which wo find in the last Georgir Citizen, over tho signature ol “Lowndes.” It is in answer to an allega tion of tho Tehycoph, tlmt Mr. Bell had always “been regarded with peculiar suspicion by .Southern Rights men.” Tlio writer says: “Was John Bell regarded with '/*<• liar suspicion’ by Southern men when in 1830 voted with Glascock, ol’Gcor^ for which vote Glascock received forty two of sixty-two thousand votes in Ge< gia? Was it for that. Mr. Clishy, y< find fault with Johu Bell? Was John Bell ‘regarded with peculiar suspicion, when ho stood by Georgia in tho l'rcsi tial contest of 1830, and aided in east Uiglhu vote of Tennessee with Georgia for Judge Whito* against the Black Fox of Kiuderhook ? Did the South regard John Boll with 'peculiar suspicion.’ when ho, in 1837, voted with a united South for Mr. Dutton's resolution? Did the South regard Johu Bell with 'peculiar suspicion’ when ho, in 1 38 voted lor the Atherton resolution which was held in Georgia as ,Southern Democratic doc trine, then? Did tho South regard John Bell with ‘peculiar suspicion/ when ho, in 1845, voted against tho Wilmot Proviso as offered by Judge Douglas? Did the South regard John licit with ‘peculiar suspicion’ when lie voted in 1848 to extend tho Missouri lino to the Pacific, and then, afterwards, voted for tho Ciuyton Compromise it 1848? When ho voted five distinct times against tlio Wilmot Proviso, and Stephen A. Douglas, ns many limes, for tho Wilmot Proviso In 1850? Did the South regard John Bell with 'peculiar INVOCATION TO CASH.
