Ho gave a deft nition of non-intervention, and tho history of its application in tho Utah and Now Mexico, and Kansas bills. Hu emptied tho vials of his wrath upon tho hood of Stephen A.

And .vet, the Southern Democracy who thus denounco him,attempted only four years ago to noniinnto him as a can* didato for tlio Presidency of tho United States. As for his Southorn followers, Judge Iverson bent them down to tho ground, bleeding, mangled, lifeless bodies, and then begged his friends to treat them tenderly, and they would return to tlio fold again. This was u bit of cruel irony at which our merciful na* turo revolted. Ho asserted that Mr. Douglas would I not got a single State in tho Union, ami I tlio only and inevitable elfeet of his running will bo to give soino of tho .Southern Stales to Hell. And yet ho aflerunrds, in a facetious sketch of tho race, pictured Mr. Boll us tho hindmost home. This inconsistency was pecu liarly Democrat io.

Having contemplated tho sultjoct, more or loss for two or throo woeks past, wo have como to tho conclusion that it would be ndviscnblo for tlio far mers of Cliorokeo Ga., to tnako proper preparation ur.d sow a largo amount of wheat during tho present Fall. Some of the reasons on whloh \vo predicate this beliof wo will name: There is oveti now very littlo whoat in this section of country, and long be fore spring there will bo much less and although an unusually .heavy crop has been made in the North Western States this year, yet tho great demand for it In Franco ami several of the other coun tries of Europe, togotiior with what will ho required in tho Southern Stales, will oxliuust that product large ns it is be* tore another crop can bo grown, A good crop next year would add a good deal to the prosperity of tho fann ers and bo of immense value to the country. For two years past wo hare had unfit- ornhlo seasons boro for the production of wheat, tho coming year will probably bo a very fine one, for any more than two unproductive years in succession Imvo not boon known to exist. The corn fields and other parcels of ground that may bo selected for sowing down wheat have not yielded thoprosonty ing to the protracted draught, ich as most other year*, and will Imvo therefore, more of tho elements of fer tility remaining to g.vc forth another ear for mi abundant crop of wheat, hich wo will so much need. Many persons whoso ability may bo more limi ted than is dusii-.iMe, may iierliaps lie detered from sowing as much a* they otherwise would do, In consequence of the scarcity and high price of seed ill the country. That small consideration ought not to prevent thorn when tho wants of tho country is so urgent and withal tho prospects of a rich harvest so good—than sow liberally and plow deep. 1’lenty of good seed wheat can b© pro cured in Missouri and Illinois (and at l,ouisvilio Ky., perhaps) at low prices and brought lu-re in time to sow. By repeated experiments, it is well known in Louisiana that corn raised thoro, from Missouri and other upper country seed, ripens some two or throe week* earlier tlinn from seed of Louisiana growth. Now, if to sow semi of a more Northern product would cnitso Or has ten the maturity of tlio nett crop ten or fifteen days it would ha of no little importance to this section of t lie coun try—throwing as it would, our wheat iti 1 tlie market of (lie largo cities’ ut nn early perio 1 when new and fresh grain rays hears a fine price.

His re cord is thorofofo extonsivo, and, |uclg« ing from a letter of his, recently writ ten and published, ho refers to it with prido, and confidently invites its in spection. We think it will ho found, on examination, that lie is a doelded pro-slavery man; that hi* opinions on the slavivy question are identical with those professed by the Brockiuridge Democracy, and not at all with those which were hold by Clay and tho Whig party. Time, lie Is not nn agitator of Unit question, and that is tlio solo dif ference in tlio premises between him and the .Southern Democracy. Neither doc* ho countenance disunion, nor treason of any kind. His policy i* to protect and extend slavery withing tho Union, without contemplating the al ternative of secession in tlio event of that policy being frustrated. The protection ami extension of slav ery within tno Union is the platform on which John Bell’s record establishes him. ^ In tho gieat debate on the com promise measures of 1850, ho argued flint slavery is right In Itself ami bene- ficient in its operation and result*; that the [lowers and resources of tbc Con federacy would not bo half wlmt tlioy uro, except for slave labor ; and that tho institution is in harmony with the laws of naturo, and has prevailed in all ages and oounties. This is nutfioiontly explicit. Indeed the foroe of languagi can no farther go in panegyrising tm institution. But we have also an em phatic avowal of the Calhoun theory, (now the espooiality of the Southern or Brookinridge Democracy) on tho “Con stitutional rights’’ of slavery in the Ter ritories. In tho same speech Mr. Bell affirms that the *soundnesn’ of the doc trine that tho Constitution carries slave ry proprio viyore into tlio Territories ; that the Hag of tlio Union protects the citixcn in tho epjhymont of hi* right* of property of every description, rrcoynU eda* such in any of the.

(hnstitufion, of Sept. 10th—a Flack.Republican paper, which comes to iis with tlio names of Lincoln and Hamlin flyingnt its mast-head: John Bki.i..—Wo have before* stated explicitly that John Boll’s opinion on tlio |imror and duty of Congress to pro tect slavery in the Territories were the same with those of Mr. Breckinridge.— Tho Louisville Journal, one of tlio most intluemial journals in the country in tlio intercut of Mr. Bell, now freely makes the same assertion. Tho Journ al say*: “We do not by any means olgcct to Mr. Breckinridge that ho is in favor of tlio doctrine of intervention (for tho protection of slavery in tho Territories,) for John Beilis in favor of that doctrine, and we ourselves are in favor of it.” This is certainly explicit enough.— After such n plain avowal from so fntlu- entinl a journal, tliorc can ho no doubt in the mind of any candid man that John Boll not only his opinions, but that hi* opinion* on the great question of the day are the same with those of Mr. Breckinridge. thotr presit/co mihl . hoar artd wolgH Hh© arguments of a speaker who bdf acquired «uoh‘ distin guished and deserved eminence as a nonular orator aa.IJon.
