‘ * ; Th©...Late Elections.
Our exchanges furnish us with sufficient elec
tiop uews to show that Indiana, by the late
election, will have in the next Congress fou
Democrats to seveu Black Republicans. In.the
present Congress from that State, the Demo
crats haye§7x lo~Rve~BIack TfepuMicans. In
the;Stat^ of Pennsylvania the Democratic de-
feat is $lil) greater ; out of twenty-four Repre
sentatives there will be but four Democrats —
In Ohio the Democrats have lost two Districts.
In South \Catoljrja the old Congressmen were
re-elected^yyiiji the exception of Orr, who was
not a candidate. Col. Ashmore is elected to
till bis place.
So it seems that Black Republicanism has
triumphed over States Rights in the States of
Pennsylvania, Indiana and Ohio. What has
become «>f all the “Northern men with Southern
feelings?” We would not he surprised to hear
the next tune sung that he is a “Southern man
with Northern feelings,”
The Contest in Illinois—Fitch vs. Dou
glas.
As we have taken positlori against ji
Douglas hr the present contest between bljn
and the Administration, Wfc desire aft. a means
in part of our justification, to lay before our
readers the remarks of Mr. II. S.-Fitch, United
Slates District Attorney of Illinois', that they
may see and judge of the positions taken by
Judge Douglas, and the political feeling that
exist in his own State against him. This
speech was delivered in Springfield on the 7th
'tilt.j'belftra a Cdflvemfetf to nominate a candi
date for Representative in the next Congress.
Wer wero one of the number who felt a sincere
desire that the National Cincinnati Convention
should nominate Douglas for our standard-bear
er in the last great contest; we admired him
then above many others, whose names were
spoken of in connection with the office of Pres
ident—-but since that time his acts have been
of such a deceptive character compared with
our former anticipations, that we are unwillin
to place any reliance on the integrity of his fu
ture course in any position.
We care not a farthing—neither do we feel
las that there was nothing in the Kansas bill re*
quiring'a submission of the Constitution to the peo
ple,and the only clause, that by implication could
Douglas himself. Senator Trumbull has charged
tins upon Senator Douglas with great truth and se
verely* to which that honorable gentleman merely
answer* that Mr. Trumbull is a “cavern-hearted
wretch and should have his ears chopped off.’* Veri
ly, here are “some high thoughts sealed in a heart
of courtesy.” To say nothing of the character of
the argument, how chastely and elegantly the Sen
ator expresses it. That allusion to chopping off
ear* is unworthy of the young, and gifted Broderick!
No ordinary plebian. like kj*. Lincolnor Mr- Trum
bull could never have reached the dignified severe*
iry of this satire. It flushes one with pride to re
flect that he is a citizen oft State represented in
the Senatorial councils by so accomplished a gen
tleman. r * '. ' r T ' ;
But there is no escaping this charge. It is up
on record—a part of the Legislative Htetorv of this
Republic—and the tears of the Archangel though
a fallen one could not blot it out. Even the mag
nificent powers of assertions, and great bravery of
denial which characterize Judge Douglas cannot
prevail against it. The National Democracy do
not blame Mr. Douglas for the act itself. Hu did
right in striking it out.-—They do blame him, how-

Capt. II. ill. Robert Again
We take pleasure in copying from the Albany
(Ga) Patriot, the following extracts relative to
Capt. U. M. Robert, upon whose letter we made
home comments a week or Wo ago. It affords us
real gratification to place him right in regard to
his old friend and neighbor, General Ua^imojid
Of course Capt. Robirt has the undoubted privi
lege of criticizing and disapproving the political
course of every man, even though it were his own
brother. ‘ In doing so, he shows the spirit of a free
man. We know too, although differing from some
of his views, that he is one who, to use life lan
guage .of. the Albany Paliioty “speaks the full sen
timents jol* a heart glowing with Southern prid^and
warm for Southern Rights.” . *.-

Jt was not that the honorable Senator loved the

We wouhfcall the attention of onr brethren
of tho press to a subject which interests them i

allude to the advertising of the laws in all tlie

tion among the masses as to what laws have
been passed, as each session of the Legislature
closes its labors. Even then pamphlet editions
of the more important acts have to be gotten up
by private enterprise, so that the legal profes
sion may be able to perform tlieir duties to their
clients, and know in time what is the law of the
land. As it is, the regularly authorized edition j lon ,
of the laws for distribution, seldom appears un
til months after the laws themselves have been

difficulty that we can see, is to

On this occasion a complimentary dinner at
“Camp Pace,” near this city, was tendered the
Company by Davis Pace, Esq., and wo will here
take occasion to return our thanks for the po
lite invitation extended us, and regret that it was
out of our power to be present and mingle with
our friends in the festivities of the day.
The Company, we learn, number forty on
the muster roll, and is composed of fine, healthy,
stout looking young men. #
The uniform is a plain blue single breasted
coatee, trimmed with white, and three cows of
white bell buttous, and epauletts of the same
color, with sugar loaf cap and white flowing
plumes, and on this occasion .made a very hand
some and imposing appearance. The following
are the oouimissioned officers:—Captain, D.
A. Vason—1st. Lieut., Y. G. Rust—2d., W.
E. Smith—3d, S. F. deGkai fenried—En

As it is a matter which concerns the press,
as well as the people, will editors throughout
the State please to make mention of the matter
in their columns, and press the subject on the
attention of the Senators alid Representatives
of their counties?
We agree with our cotemporary, and add
that if one half tho amount paid for the worth•
lcs& printed Journals, was expended in this way,
the people would be more benefilted and en
lightened as to tbo new laws. It has been over
ten months since the adjournment of the last
Legislature, and we venture to say that
seven-eighths of the voters of Georgia have seen
the laws passed by that session, and such will
continue to be the case so long ns the present
system of publication remains unchanged.
