So much for oursolvos. Now ns to our opponents. For some yours past tho opposition or Constitutional Union Party in Goorgia, havo denounced Squatter Sovereignty and opposed the Democracy upon the ground chat this doctrine was contained in tho Kansas Bill, a moasupo which gave thorn strength at tho South nnd which con tained the principles of that party upon tho subject of Slavery. Wo charged that this dangerous heresy was in that Bill, nnd thoy deniod it. In vain did wo bring forward to sustain the chnrgo the spooohes and 101101*8 of its strongest friends at tho North. Tlio people bo- lioved thorn in proforonco to us. Tho truth, however, could, not always bo ■motliorbd up. It at last bccamo so ap parent t|iat oven tho most practiced and export demagogues could dooiove tlio pooplo uo longer. Democratic lea- dors and presses denounced the danger ous heresy in tho bitterest terms, and demanded of their Northern allies, a full, fair and unequivocal declaration of tlio truth as enunciated by tho Su premo Court. Wo sustained them in their just demands und contended that they should persist even to a disruption of ©very tie that bound thorn to their Northern friends. This they did, and by it won our admiration. Almost the entire opposition, press in Georgia Up held them, and defomlcd them against their enemies in thoir own ranks, did so with no sinistor motive. Wo be lieved thoy were right, and honestly told tho people so. But there was a portion of tho Demo cratic Party in tlio South who were wil ling to hung on to the organizntion and take Stephen A. Douglas ns their nom inee. At first, this faction was insignifi cant in numbers and influence. Aguinst them wo doclurcd war nnd waged it to tho best of our ability. They aro our enemies.

Resolved, That tlio furniture of tho Lodge will be clothed in mourning for tlio space of thirty days, and a copy of Johnson Condemned by Douglas. In his famous article, published In Harper’s Magaziuo, Mr, Douglgs mado thd following observation in tho first column on tlio second page of that ro- mnrkablo treatiso oh popular sovereign ty: “It is difficult to conceive how any person who bolioves that tho Constitu a tion confers tho right of protection in tho Territories, regardless of tho wishes of tho pconlo anu of the action of the territorial legislature, can satisfy his con science and his oath of fidelity to the Constitu tion in xcithholdiny such Vonyrcssional legisla tion as maybe essential to the ayoyment of such right under the Constitution, Undor .this view or the subject, it is impossible to resist the conelusm that, if tho Constitution docs establish slavery in tho Territories beyond tho power of the peoplo to con trol it by law it is the imperative duty.of Congress to supply all tho legislation neoessayy to its protection Mr Douglas clearly intimates in tho foregoing, that any man who boliovos thut tho Constitution oonfors tho right to hold slaves in tho Territories, does violence to his conscience and breaks Ids oath of fidolity to tho Constitution, if ho withholds such congressional legis lation ns may bo necessary lo soouro the porteot oi\joymont of that right. It seems from tho following extract from a letter written by Governor John son on May 28th, 1800, a year after hftV: ing road Air. Douglas’article, and wheti ho had a full knowlodgO of tho Douglas plntform, that Gov. J. s position on tho question is precisely that to which Mr. Douglas’ charge of faithlessness to tho oath of fidolity to tlio Constitution ap plies with full vigor nnd efibet. Thd following is tho oxtrnct to which wo re fer : “I believe that it is the right of tlio South to demnnd, and tho duty of Con gress to oxtend, protection to persons and property of every kind (including slavery! in the Territories during theii territorial-state. This is no now opin ion, I advocated tho doctrino ns far back as 1848, in tlio Senuto of tho Uni ted States. If you havo any curiosity to sod tho argumo.it, i refer you to my speech on tlio Orogon bill, dolivoredTtn July ot that year, and reported in tho Congressional Globe. How unjust,there fore, nro tho insinuations with which you iutersperse and interlard your od- itoriul comments thut ail uro in favor of ‘Squatter Sovereignty’ who happen not to agree with tho »(‘coders from tlio Charleston Convention!

'•But this is not the question now be fore tho Democratic party of tho South. Tho question is not whether wo llavo tho ripht to demaVul, but whether, under tho circumstances, wo ought to demand Con gressional intervention for tho protec tion of Slavery in tho Territories? I think we ought not, and the object of my AIncou letter was to vindicuto (lint opinion.” Here Gov. Johnson prides hlmsolf on the fact that for years—“as far back ns 1848”—ho advocated tho right of tho South to demand, aml’tho duty of Con gress to extend, protection to persons property of every kind, (in«l»di«J •y) in tlio Territories, and Challenge Accepted* Tho Enquirer, (Columbus Ga.,) of tho lOthf states i - : Wo learn thilt tlio Columbus Guards, through their Captain, Paul J.Sommes, have accepted a challenge, thrown out to tho world by tho Zouavo Cadots of Chicago, Illinois, to drill against each other according to tho Tactics' of Scott, Hardy and Cooper.

On Thursday, tho 12th Inst., at one ’clock, a violent storm, moving in Southerly direction, passed over this place, carrying with it donso, black clouds of dust, leaves, branches of troes, and all sorts of light trash, and doing very considerable damage in its course. Tho bauds of iEolus Boomed to havo been loosod and vorily “tho winds did blow und crack their cheeks.”. Tlio following damages by tho storm lmvo como to our knowledge: two freight cars standing on tlio track just North of tho depot wero driven down tho track, by tho forco of tho wind, to tlio foundry, whoro a switch being turned wrong for them to go further, thoy woro thrown from tho track and one of them smashed up ; about ono third of tlio slieot iron roof of tho depot on each side of the building, commencing on tlio north end, was tom ofr; tho ohlmnoy of tho store of Sloan & Hoopers was blown down, breaking through tho roof and into tho store room of Magnus &Wyso,just missing several persons sitting thero; tho ohimnoy of tho store occupied by W.

It is thus succinctIv given by a writer in the New York Daily Times: The House of Representatives bns nothing whatever to do with tho elec tion of a Vice-President, nor tho Sen ate with tho election of a President.— ’I’lie powers of each body are distinct and entirely Independent of tho oilier. If no President bo chosen by tlio electors, tho House of Representatives may choose tho President, their oholco being restricted to tho persons having tho highest numbers, not ox'cecding three on tho list of thoso voted for President. If no Vico President bo chosen by tlio electors, the .Senate shall choose tho Vice -President from tho two highest numbers on the list of thoso voted for Vice-President. It tho House fails to elect u President before tho 4th of March noxt following, then tho Vice-President whether elect ed by tho electors or by tho Sennto, shall act n? President. The rulo or manner of voting under which the .Senate chooses a Vice-Prosi- dent, is exactly tho reverse of that whioli governs the llouso in choosing a President—each being tho reverse of tho gonoral principle or basis upon which tho respective bodies aro organi zed. Tho llouso, representing tho people, and ordinarily voting per capita, vote for President by States, tho repre sentation from each State having ono voto, and a majority of all tho states being necessary to a choico.
