Tho Notes of Preparation* The burden of new* now. from all purl* of tho South, i* new movoment* of various kind* in preparation for Lin coln’* olcotion and possibly for a Disso lution of tho Union 1 Tho Dank* are refusing to discount Northern paper duo after tho Oth of Nov.j companioo of Minuto men are, in many plncos, being organised, armed and put in readiness for the bloody fight; custom house officers and post masters are discussing tho question as to whoth- or they will resign or defy Lincoln in cusp of his election; tho price or all kinds of property Is groatly depreciat ed, especially that of Negroes; tho lit tle money thcro is in tho countty is looked up and commercial men stand aghast, in dismay at tiic prospect boforo them. .Purely coming events now “cast their shadows beforo” with portentous gloom. What (s tho duty of Patriots in this emergency ? These fearful dan gers appreliended may possibly be averted by prompt, energetic, unani mous notion. And yot it may already be to late, and if so every man should gird on hi* armour and bo ready, if need bo, to light for tho South and our glorious right* in the Union. Wo said tills impending danger might bo averted. Tho only probablo chance now open is, by a prompt union of all parties in tho South, to givo moral strength to tho fusion ill New York and thus ennhlo tho Union men to de feat Lincoln in that Stato. This uiny be in vain, but yet tlioro is a reasonable hope. There is ho doubt but that many of the Hrcckinridgoparty realty desire a dissolution of tho Union—and these men are probably just*as honest in their convictions ns those who differ from them. Of course such mon aro not oxpcct- od to favor any movement to prevent what othor's regard as a dire calamity. Tills party, as a party, refuse to go into the proposed fusion iu Georgia, and they do not even propose to cast the vote of tho Stuto for any candidate but Breckinridge, should tiioir doctors be elcolod. In fact, to be consistent, they aro obligod to voto for tlitir own can didate and no other. They refuse to unite with the other parties because they sag they'arc determined to stand or /all by their principles and limy sny neiiher Hell or Douglas entertains their principles. The loaders or thispurty are opposed to a union of tho people of Georgia upon any other basis than their principles and should they tho State, to bo consistent they will bo obliged to cast the voto of Georginjor Breckinridge though by so doing they should elect Lincoln and endanger the Union. They say DreclinviJge is most likely to defeat Lincoln,.if so, then. In case of the fhsion, every man in Oa. would really voto for him in voting tho fusion ticket. Rut if after the election, it is evident that the voto of Ga. would elect Bell and defeat Lincoln are not nil hon est men of all parties willing for tho vote to he oust for him? The Breckinridge leaders, by tiioir action, say they aro not. Is thcro ony real lover of his country— disuniouist—wlio would not if worst comes to worst, really profor Doug las to Lincoln? These Breckinridge leaders do not if we can understand thorn. What say tho . honest men'of tho country? Is it right to support a party that, in this crisis, thus obstiuntely ic- fuscs to co-operate witli men who arc, at least, ns good and patriotic ns them selves ? Qther parties are willing to yield their peculiar prejudices and pref erences for tho common good of all.— But this par excellence, Southern rights party refuses to nbato oho iota of their prejudices in order to savo from danger, not only the rights of tho South, but tho Union itself.

Tho.New York Worldlnisalottcrdat- od at Norfolk, Va., October 17th, and perhaps written Irom that placo by a transeient correspondent: Wo quoto some ox tracts» PnorosRD Meeting or the Collectors or Customs.—I understand that It is se riously contemplated by Collectors of Customs of the loading Southern ports, to call a meeting of all the Collectors in tho South with a view to decide what course they will pursue ill tho event of Lincoln's election—whether to surren der the keys of tho Custom Houses or retain them; and whether to give up the roveuuo to tho Federal Government, or rosorve it for tho benciitof tbo.South ern State*/' W it at the Southern Office-Holders wii.i. Do.—Of all clauses in tho South, the ofilco bolder* seem most interested in tho result of llio pending Presidential election. Most, il not all of them, devoutly pray for Lincoln’* success, believing that 111 this election they havo an undoubted gnarunteo of an other official term. Under Lincoln’s administration it is presumed no Southern man would ho an applicant for office, and of coursa no Northern an would have tho temerity to accept olllco in a Southern State, evon if ten dered to him.” Fusion In Georgia, e havo before stated our conviction that u union of parties in Georgia could do no good—first, benauso too lato; second, because we need thirty-tivo north ern electoral votes, which all tho Southern States combined can’t make. Tho communication of tho proprio- r of this pnnor, proposes a joint elec toral ticket, for the promotion of fra ternal fooling nmongal) parties inUoor- R ia: and to any movoment which has >r its object tho union ofall southern men, wo givo our cordial assent. Wo want RniicKiNKiDOE men and IIeli. mon, not for present, but futuro power. This is with us no party trick, for wo propose to ignoro all party but tho South. And wo want tho election to close friendly,, so tliut tho great south ern convention, and tho noxt Legisla ture, will soo all Georgians united on the platform which has for its only plank, love or the south. We repudiate fusion for any other ultimato ohjoct than tho union of tho South for coming events.—diugusta Con- sUMionalixt. Tho Coudlllons They Propose. So far nk thcro has been opportunity, wo have oxainiucd tho positions taken by tho Breckinridge Tress, of UiisStato, upon tho proposed fusion question, the Marietta Statesman and Nownan Mad? favor tho ino/ement. All others, so far ns wo have seen, oppose It really, yet say they nro in favor of a fusion upon such terms ns they may dictate. But these conditions aro fairly end clearly sot forth in tho following extract from tho Au gusta True Democrat, the central organ of tho Brookinrldgo party In Georgia: “Our opposing wing of tho Democrat ic party should abandon Douglas and Johnson, and voto for Breckinridge and Lano. The Boll men, also, should como t6 their support. IF they will not, we shall ho glad to soo nil purties united in tho ovent of Lincoln’s oloction in oppo sition to his rule, Brockinridgo and Lane niotii you stand upon tho ramparts of tho Consti tution. Stand there, firmly, still. Stand by your right* beforo the clootfon and alter. Soonor, or Inter, your Douglas and Roll opponents in tho South must como to your flog.” » Tim* it will bo soon that tho Breckin ridgo party really desire no fusion i thoy merely ask all other parties to como to tboni and support Breckinridgo and Lane. But “if they w'll not,” O, won- diousjDflguahinvty, they say, “wo shall be glad to *ee »U parties unite in tho event of Lincoln's election in opposition tohisrulo," Ron* Market, Oct. 20.—No ohange in tliOoottpn market since oqr lost quota tions.

Our citizens are to lie most ngrcoably entertained to-night at City Hall, by tho Holman Upera Troupe. This Troupe consists of four of tho most talented children, two boys and two girls, who are represented to us as prodlgios in thoir line. Tho two lads nro aged, re- pectivel}*, 12 and 14, and tho little girls, Sullie and Julia, 0 and 0. They have good voices, and have been thor- ougly instructed by their parents. They sing, act, danco and change dresses with the ease, effect and skill of practical performers of much oldci standing, and possesss no small share of tho vis comica.

A Convict Cauoiit.—A man by tho name of Tiiihlev was caught above Tenfield on Little River l«y»t Saturday morning and committed to Jail by some gentlemen who were fox hunting. They accidentally camo near whero Tinslev |iud camped and suspecting something pursued him a considerable distance. Tinslev being on a lino horse had, as ho thought succeeded in mak ing Ids escape, mid camped again, and being considerably fatigued lay down with Ids pistols besides him ; in a short limo lie fell asleep and before he awoko hU pursuers came and surrounded him.

Weekly, 24/A. T aoros i no, to Hanu Doug us.—Some of the Brock inridgo-Yancey parry, make no scruples to say that Dougins ought to Iro hung for daring to como in to Tennessee to make speeches! This is a Breckinridge argument, and thoy answered the Bell men with it in Jack- son, Mississippi, by hanging Bell in elli- gy! We had supi>osed this to bo n free country, and that an American citizen of high positiou, like Judgo Douglas, who has long served the country in her National counsels, would he allow ed to travel through tiie country, nud defend himself and hi? principles. All this sort proscription is unworthy of American citizen* and sensible men.— We arc ashamed of such, and want it understood that none but these Breck- inridgo-disuuion men aro cnpablo of such sentiments,—Knoxville Whig, Not Seriously Hurt.—Wo arc glad to bo nolo to stato that Tho*, Gaddis was not seriously injured by a blow that he, in a difficulty with Hiram Blake.recelv- ed upon tho head with a hammer last weok.

Tho liono of Contention* The great territorial-slavery disputo is tho undoubted .•cause of I ho present downward tendency of si,arcs in tho Atnerioan Democratic Company. ' Whoever commenced that hist debate in Congress oil this vrxataijiarsfia, will bo held up in history, if tho organization lie wrecked, as the man who struck first atiU vitality. Be it Douglas' or Davis, Pugh Or benjamin, or whoever else, such will be (but gentleman's po sition. Whether it will do an otivlablo one or not, remains to be seen, Judging by the meagrones* of tbe bono o! contention, ono would supposo not. For a tons il truly is; and how ever full of unseen marrow it may bo, there is oortulnly very little moat visi ble. AVo writo tills moment in full view of tbo fact.

As to tho accuracy of tho map wo cannot say : it is gotten up by tho gov ernment nud is suiely prepared from sufficient data. It exhibits the futility of this quarrel, for all practical ends, in a more |itU|Mhlo light than any argu ment we have read upon the subject.— And tills is the 'quurrol which Is about to givo tbo government over to tbo Black Republicans.—Kilgejidd IS.
