Ours is by no mains a hopeless cause. There are now, ns wo verily bolieve, hun dreds of men, in every county, who, two weeks since, were opposed to us, but who now, sinco the disunion policy of the Breckinridge party lias becomo ful ly known, arc determined to leavo the “precipitators,” and lend a helping bund to save our glorious epuntry and its sn ored institutions. See to it that these men, many of them our very best citi zens, modest and unpretending, have a chance to vote, unawed by selfish dema gogues, and uninfluenced by party tricks und falsehoods. Bring nil proper influences and argu ments to bear upon tlio wavering and undecided. Tell the people that the Bell Ticket is the only oue in Georgia pledged to vote for whichever candidate can beat our groat common enemy.Lin coln. If the Boll electors are elected, they will cast the vote of this State for Breckinridge, if, only by so doing, they could defeat Lincoln ; and they would act in the same way in regard to Mr. Douglas. What possiblo excuso, then, can any good patriot who loves his country more than party, give for not voting this ticket ? If tho Breckinridge Ticket is elected they will bo forced to vote for their own candidate, even though by so doing they should permit Lincoln's election ; or else they will have to hack down from "theprinciple*! ; th6y.bt , b/pMdgod “ to die by,” and come sneaking in at last to our po-ition of vntitfg for the strongest man against Lincoln.• Present those fuels to tho honest yeomanry, and their .own good sense and love of honesty will load them to patriotic conclusions.

For tho Romo Courier. Mu Eoitori I desire to make known to the friends of Bell and Everett in other portions of the State that Wf, in Gordon county, are doing ourwholo du ty in the cuu.se of tho Constitution tho Union and tho Enforcement of tho Laws. It is truo that in this county tho Democracy have heretofore had the as cendency, hut since the opening of the present canvass, we Imvo ’uo much re duced tlieir hlimbors,' tliat wo have hopes of enrrrying the county for tho Union candidates. At tho opening of tho campaign tho Broekinridgo men adopted as one of tlieir plans of operation that a speaker should attend all tho jus.ieo Courts throughout tho county for the purpose of harrangueing tho people, hut in this they found it a loosing business to their party. No sooner hud tlieir little slump orators commenced their slander and abuse on John Bell, than they wero met by Mr. J. E. Parrott Esq., (a broth er of J. R. Parrott our, woithy Elector for tho 5th District) who was not only able to defend our causo ngainst their slanders and abuse hut in every discus sion, never failed to damage the disun ion party seriously. Tho Bell men of Gordon have every reason to ho proud of Mr. Parrott. He is a young man of much pronilso and the Democracy may died him in the future. Truly. GORDON. Every Mason, at least, will ho in terested in the article headed “An Ap peal Against Disunion,” to ho found in this paper. Correction-.—We aro informed by Mr. M. Kendrick, Esq.. Solicitor of this circuit, that tho trial of J. J. Morrison, in the Polk Court was “continued generally”—that is, the trial was post poned l»y the consent of doth parties and not by the Slate as wo slated last week. Thu Etowah Hotel Changed Hands. On tho 1st inst., Col. L. P. Thomas, who has kept this house for nearly two years, vacated it, and Maj. Geo. S. Black, who is now to keep it, moved in. Col. Thomas is one of the very best of hotel keepers, and it is a matter of d regret to his numerous friends and < turners that he should find it to his inte- ivst to leave the Etowah Hotel. At 'whatever place he may locate, the ti ding public may fed assured that the hotel kept by Cm.. Thomas is, a* least not surpassed by any other kept in that An Appcnl Against Disunion. We clip the following appeal against Disunion from a late number of the “Voice of Masonry,” published at Louisville, Kentucky, mid edited by that distinguished Mason. Robert Mor- Ho appeals to ids brethren to save Union, ami says that tho cry that the North is arrayed against, tho South and the South against the North is only the cry of demagogues: We uio impelled, by an irresistible impulse of duty,to address our Masonic brethren at largo upon the present threatening aspect of our political of- “uirs. No person, however circum scribed his reading or personal experi ence, can he insensible to the prosont lunger of disruption impending over our union, llow much more, thon, must ono he alarmed ar.d impressed whose travels and correspondence alike reach every portion of the country l Brethren 1 you, us Masons, hold the balance of power in this country.

Aster, of New York city, has oontribnted one million of dollars to tho fund for carrying New York against Lincoln, adds:—“This s that tho South will bo rightin' •K ing if Lincoln is elected.,” > our mind it shows just tho reverse. Should tliuHoutli, In tills election, lose one of tho three associate departments of the Federal Government, it would ho lolly in her, on that necount, to sepa rate from ?ueh friends ns Mr. Astor— friends who contribute millions to savo for her ono brunch of tho Government, and will contribute millions more to presorvo the other two, without the co operation of which Lincoln will bo near ly powerless. Justicound-ohligation to ai/e/i friends require that wo,should stand by them, as they are resolved to stand by us, until the Government passes into tho hands of our enemies. But, at tho same time, wo must con fess that wo do not like this system of purelutsino votes, even for tho preserva tion of the Union. To our view, if Lin coln is defeated by brioory and corrup tion only, a Union thus preserved has no more claims on the South (no mat ter who is President) than a Union presided over by n Black Republican.— It is the popular sentiment and not the mere incident ol the success of this or that candidate for tho Presidency, that ought to ho taken into the account in estimating the value and integrity of the Ullioil.— Col, Enq, 3 of do kuo id, wo holit largo p. iVo spc.i Wll( , whole upright and quiet and died law.

Some of tho rabid disunion papers tell us, says the Montgomery J*ost, that if we dissolve tlio Union, northern and foreign cotton buyers will throng our streets, begging for .tjie staple at big prices. Now, if that theory ho true, the prospect of disunion ought to nut up the price at once, and it ought, also, to advanco the prices of lands and nu- groes. But how stands the case ?— Right in the face of tho fact that the crop is short—not much, if any, ovor . two-thirds of what was made last year —cotton is now commanding in our markot, only about ten cents. If dis union is going to command such big pri ces for the staple, the prospect of dis union and a short crop together ought to put it up to 12 or 15 cents at least, instead of keeping it to only ten. Ami as to negroes, wo clip" tho following from the Greensboro' (Ala.) JJcacon of last Friday : Draw Decline in Nf.oraf.s.—A lot of Negroes—somo 20 or JO—were sold at Eiltawon Monday last, by the Slid- ill*. Uio prices brought, we understand were at least 40 to 50 per cent, below tlio ruling rates last winter. A fraction over $1^0.)—and that a very likely fol low.—was the highest price that was ob tained. A very likely young woman, such as i o ibl have commanded $1500 to $10 o'»0 last Fall, brought only a frac tion over $1000. The scarcity of money doubtless had something to do with tho matter, hut an apprehension of a disso lution of the Union—a measure which some men contend would enhance tho value of slave property—we strqjjg- ly suspect had also something to do with it.
