This prediction, says tho Nashville Haulier, is already being fulfilled. “Tho claims of the “Constitutional Union parly, have already risen “abovo all other considerations,” and havo proved already “eminently attractive to tho conservative men North,South, East and West.” Tho indications are now unmistakable that the party lines here tofotc existing aio rapidly being oblit erated, and the contest is narrowing down to Northern sectionalism under tho lead of Lincoln.againtt tho Nation al ticket of Bell and Everett. Tno Bo nn U icons see this, and are waging the entile accordingly. Tho Conservative Northern men see it and they aro pre paring to support the National ticket.

Arrested.—The usual quiet of our town was interrupted on last Monday, by the arrest ot a white man, calling his name PeterC. Buckley in tho at tempt of sending oil* a negro boy iu the niploy of Messrs. Maxwell, tinners, of itir town. The suspicious of these gentlemen had been moused by the actions of said Buckley and their work man. the negro. The hoy belongs to a Mr. Holbrook, of Athens, and told his employers he would return, but said nothing about wanting a pass. This Mr. Buckley met tho hoy at tho Depot and getting pen, ink nnd paper from the agent, wrote the hoy a pass to Augusta and hack to Athens, then buys a ticket for himself to Union Point,and a half ticket to Augusta which he gave to the hoy. All this was seen by per sons on tho look out. Ml. Buckley, after he had made all theso arrange ments, was immediately arrested, also the boy and another hoy, a burlier,—the trio having been seen intimately to gether several times. They were all brought before the Justice of the Infe rior Court, and the white man Mr. Hol brook’s hoy committed to Jail. The former to await his trial at the ensuing court and the latter secured till his master would loliovo him—tho barber was liberated. There are several opinions among our citizens ns to what disposal the criminal intended to make of the hoy.— HW<. lad.

Choice.—Tho Supremo Court have affirmed tho judgment of the Superior Court in this case, refusing to grant a now trial. An Util Story. The Nashville (Tenn.) Patriot very truly says: An attempt is being made to provo Mr. Bell is an abolitionist. According to the same authority, hi 1840, Gen. Harrison was all “aboli tionist In 1844, Her.ry Clay was an “aboli tionist In 1848, Gon'l Taylor was an aboli tionist ;” Iu 1852, Gen. Scott was an abolition ist ; “nboli- JOrlVo porcoive by tho Southern pa- 1 pers that tliuro is to he another South ern Comniei'cial Convention held at At lanta, Georgia, on the second Monday of November next, ono week after the Presidential contest. It appears by a communication in Urn Clmvlclou Mw- cury, that this Convention was called by ■ a! Union has expressed a similar prefer- > nee, anil said if Breckinridge was out <-f tho way it would support Douglas.— \ny thing in tho world so it is a Demo- »rat. No matter how obnoxious he may i e, no matter if his doctrines areas bad r worse than those of the Black Hepuli- euns, os is charged against Douglas by : »ose partisan papers, still he is profera- lo to a native son of tho .South, nomi nated and supported by tho strongest * iends of their section, anil whoso ro- *i'd proves him to have been for years opposed to the “iletestiblo heresy of piatter Sovereignty’' and in favor of protection. If theso papers are sin- r« re in their professions they have a poor way of showing it tho last Southern Commercial Conven tion at Vicksburg, Mississippi. Justice to John Bell.—Hon. Linton Stephens, in his speoeh at Augusta, on tho 27th ult., said: Mr. Toombs said, in his speech on Saturday night last, that Mr. Bell while in Congress, had continually voted with tho North, whenever there was a section al division or any question before tho House. Now, 1 am not hero as the de fender, nor as tho advocate of Mr. Bell, hut injustice to him, 1 must ask leave to correct this statement. “Mr. Boll voted against the Wilmot Proviso—that was not voting against tho South. Mr, Cobh voted for it; Mr. W. L. Ynnooy voted for it. Boll voted for tho compromise bill of 1850. So did Toombs. In 1850, Mr. Fillmore was tioniat.” And it would be a little singular if Mr. 1L11 were not an “abolitionist” too. If to be made tho instrument iu the hands of Heaven for tho abolition of the ilemoeratic party is to be an aboli tionist, why then it can’t be denied that Mr. Bell has become very obnoxious to the charge. Drowned Herself*. On Thursday afternoon, a negro wo man named Polly, belonging to Mis. Woodson, of Girard, drowned herself in the Chattahoochee. She had been slight ly whipped for misconduct, and declar ing tout she would drown herself, she went to the river and wailed in, in sight of two little boys, intending, no doubt, merely to alarm the family, for she went in and out once or twice without getting into deep water; but tho swift current took her oil’ her foot boforo she was aware of her danger, and carried her be yond her depth, where she was drown ed, the little hoys being unable to ren der assistance. Her mistress is a Indy whose kintliiessmid indulgence towards her negroes is proverbial, and this wo- had been “spoiled” by the lack of Answered at Last.—The question wo .opounded a few days ago relative to e vote of the Breckinridge Senators j linst Senator Brown’s amendment to Davis resolutions, declaring that ihere was a necessity now for protection »e Kansas Legislature having iu tho exorcise of Squatter Sovereignty, passed ova excluding slavery from that Terri tory, has at last been answered. A prominent supporter of Mr. Breckin- tidgo says the resolution in the scccders platform, in favor of protection when ne cessary, was not intended to bear upon .dating necessities, but was prospective in .is operations. We tremble lest this new platform may be found to bo another double con at ruction concern. Texas Emigrants Kohl ruing. In tin* lust few weeks wo have notic ed droves of emigrants returning from Texas, all of whom seem to he in a most destitute situation. At this time, when The (.binge of Abolitionism. There has not been a Presidential ideetion for the last tweiitv-livf. years ill which tho charge of abolitionism has not been brought by tho Democracy against the candidate of the Opposition. It matters not whether that candidato Aiis a Northern or a Southern man, Aiiomtionist ! was the instant and sim ultaneous outcry of tho Democratic Is it not extram/dinary that the \Vhigs of tho South who, ns a general rule, constitute the great mass of large slave-holders, should never yet have in troduced the slavery subject into ]M»li- tics; never denounced the Democratic nominee as an Abolitionist, but have always stood oil the defensive, content- themselves with disproving the charge, and establishing the national idiuructu of their inn lidntes? It is the solemn truth of history that, for tho hist twenty years, the Democracy has lived, breathed, moved and had its being by slavery agitation, by obtruding upon every Presidential canvass the alleged abolitionism of Whig nominees, and iiisiuua'ing into U*m minds of the .Southern people the idea that abolition ism was so vast a power ill the free •States that it had to he propitiated by the Whigs in tho selection of Presiden tial candidates. They charged that Gen. Harri.-oii, a Virginian, was “a member of an Abolition society iu Ohio;” that Henry Clay was disloyal lo his native .Smith : that Gen. ’faylor, tho ownurof three hundred slaves, would, if elected, ho a mertf trail of Wm. II. Seward ; that Millard Fillmore was an cutuml out abolitionist, and that Win field Scott could not ho trusted by the land which gave him birth and for which he had shod his blood upon the battle field. Such men as those wore to he set aside, on the charge of abolition ism, fur Martin Van Buieu, who after wards laid the corner stone of the Black Hopublican party; for Jus. K. Polk, who signed the NViliiiot Proviso in tho Oregon bill, and other sound and in dexible patriots. When, therefore, they raise again the monotonous old outcry of abolitionism, ami apply it to the true hearted I'eiinossco gentlemen, John Bell, we look upon it ns simply beneath contempt. We wonder that they have the lave to Haunt that tatter ed calumny before ii public whose confi dence has been too often imposed upon by similar fables to lend it n moment's credence. We are astonished that they, whoso interest iu sieve property is lim ited in comparison with that of the Union men of the South, should be al ways more sensitive upon the subject of slavery than those who own slaves, and that they should ho eternally volunteer ing to defend tbeiv slavehoiding neigh bors from themselves. Wo should think, moreover, that the position to which they hnvo brought tho country by their perpetual agitation of tho sla very subject would suggest to (hem at this time tho practice of penitence anil humility, and the abstinence, for one Presidential election at least, from tho luxury of their favorite scandal. It is their persistent attempts to evoke the goblin of Northern abolitionism which havo led to tho present sectional dis trust and hostility, and to their party disruption and demoralization.— It is owing to a necessity imposed by tho party use they have made of the slavery subject that every Southern newspaper am! every Southern rostrum have been made the niedia.Qf an incen diary influence amidst heaps of com bustibles which it is only God’s mercy has UQt long ago set the hunt iu a blaze. John Bell is no more unsound on slavery than they are. They, luwva done mis chief enough with such ph Uges already.

From his birth, ho has sutlered from lameness. The difficulty was in his right hip, the joint seeming to ho out of place. Ills right leg was in consequence shorter than the other ; it was shrunk en and very weal;; he always wore a hoot with a thick solo upon it, and limped badly when ho walked. In go ing up strtirs ho was obliged to step up ono stair at a time with his well leg ami bring tho other up to it, instead of put ting it forward to the next, as poisons usually go up. 'When fatigued, ho was accustomed to feel great pain in his hip. Some two or three months ago he was in Chicago attending to some hininess matters which kept him for several weeks.

This is laid face downwards upon a steel plate, which has previous ly received a very thin coat of wax — tho oil renders tho note so transparent that it is easy to go over every lino with a very fine needle; this of courso pro duces a faint tracing upon the wax.— The wax beneath ovory lino is then re moved with a graving tool, and poured over the plate, which only tukes ©fleet upon those parts from which tho wax has been removed, thus transferring tho tracing from tho wax to tbo steel beneath. Tho plate is then eloanod, and the engraving finished ns in ordin- •y steel engravings.—Peterson's Counter- . Sale in continue from day to day im all in cold. JOHN,!.

These words, as they stand in the resolution before me, imply that there is no present existing necessity (or protection. Von, and all other men who have done mo the hon or to read my speeches, know that I think otherwise. If tho resolution read, “It is the duty of tbo Federal Government, in all departments, now nnd atoll times, to protcottho rights of persons and property, slaves included, in tlic Tenitorics, on tho high seas, and wherever else its constitutional authori ty extends,” I should havo liked it bet ter. fdt Detector. Rt-jy-'l’lie New York Herald says: •“Itmay appear a startling assertion, but it is nevertheless a true ono, that there is probably not a residenco in New York belonging to a wealthy man, which has not been at some time, or is not now, undor tho.surveillanco of a scientific and desperate burglar, who is patiently waiting a favorablo oppportu- nity for carrying out his long matured designs.” noteworthy that the 'resolution which ofl'ers protection to foreigners at homo and abroad does not offer it “when necessary,” but it offers protec tion absolutely. To say I do not like tho directness in the ono case, and the lack of it in tho other, is tho mildest form in which I can express my dis sent. Mr. Breckinridge, in his lot lor of ac ceptance, says: “The friends of constitutional oquali- ty do not, and never did, demand a ‘Congressional slave code,’ nor any other ‘code,’ in regard to property in the Ter ritories. The hold tho doctrines of non- intervention ly Congress or by a territo rial legislature either to establish or prohibit slavery.” Ac. I do not seo tho use of such language if Congress is.in any contingency to pass laws prohibit ing slavery iu tho Territories; and if never to he done, then, this i opinion, the controversy is ’much ado about nothing.’” Gen. Lane uses much tho same lan- gauge in his letter of acceptance.— Neither he nor Mr. Breckinridge givos that distinct assurance which Fshould like to hear, that tho wholo power of the government, iji all its departments, is to be used, so soon as wo got control of it, to protect our slave property in the l’erritories nml on the high seus, in tho sumo way and to tho same exton t that other kinds of property is protected.— .Without such nssuranoo, my past ro- cord shows that I cannot,,as an honest man say “I am satisfied.” IniuLof R.
