i Young men Of Georgia! toiiny «l you «ill. for ihe first time, exercise the glorious right of freemen on Monday next. Let your knaiden vote be for your country and your country men ! Let it be on the aide of American nationality and Pro testant freedom ! Let every young man do his duty and the country is safe! THE SALE OF THE STATE’S CARS. The sale of the State’s Cars and the levying upon the extensive and valuable Depot at Chattanooga, (says the Chroni cle & Sentinel) which cost the State thousand upon thousaud of dollars, are exciting the indignation of the people on all hands. This is as it should be. We speak of course of those who are not ti:2 servile instruments of party—whose forily patriotism consists in voting far the nominees of their party, without refer ence to their corrupt administration of gross neglect of the affairs of the State. The Atlanta Republican, like every good citizen, feels indignant and speaks out in the following strain : Sheriff Sale of the State Road Cars—The Chattanooga Depot levied upon—We are informed that on Friday the 4th instant, fifteen of the State Road Cars were sold, at Chatta nooga, under the Sheriff’s hammer, and brought the following prices: 4 Box Car, $185,00 14 do do each, 130,00 We are further informed that the State Road Depot at that place, is also adver tised to be sold by the Sheriff on the first Tuesday in October. We do not know who was the real purchaser, or what Georgia has gained by a transaction so disgraceful to the State, but to cause shame to mantle the cheek of every Georgian. The idea of having the pro perty of the State of Georgia and ma chinery of her great work sold under the Sheriff’s hammer, in the State of Tennessee, is infamy enough for one • day. It would have been far better for »that one hundred thousand dollars kept from honest creditors and piled up in the State Treasury to brag about and make capital for Ilerschei V. Johnson, i to have been used to pay the Cowart, - Johnson, Tennessee claim*, much bet ter than the degradation of having the machinery of the State Road sold to . pay those debts. Verily the wild hunt after office, of Johnson and his precious crew has brought and is bringing the ' State of Georgia to bankruptcy of char acter and credit before the time. our return home, the conversation which I reported to you sometime ago occurred. Kilgore commenced it by calling me a “d—d Know Nothing.*’ He did say that “ old Louis. Napoleon Bonaparte came to this country with forty thousand men, and fought the bat tles of the Revolution,'* and that the Siate of Louisiana was named after him in consequence of it So far from it being true that he meant Lafayette, as he claims in his ly ing statement in the Banner, I most dis tinctly remember that I reminded him three several times that it was Lafayette ! He finally said it was a lie—whereupon I called him a d—d liar and a d—d fool into the bargain. He then jumped out of the rockaway—unhitched his horse, and left me and my little boy to get home the best way we could. My younger brother coming up at this time on horseback, unsaddled his horse and hitched him to my carriage, when this unmitigated liar had the unblushing ef frontery to send back to borrow his sad die!! As to bis stating that Louisiana was named in honor of Louis XV., it is an unmitigated falsehood, nor did he know it was the fact until informed by his lit tle amanuensis, whom I congratulate upon his elevation to the important pos* of scribe to Jim Kilgore. Chas. Austin Thompson. TO THE VOTERS OF THE SIXTH DISTRICT. My name having been announced as candidate to represent the Sixth Con- For tbe Southern Watchman. DECREE!!! Sixth REMOVAL OF THE CAPITAL. The last Legislature, passed the fol lowing act in relation to the removal of •the Capital from Milledgeriile. It will .hethe privilege of the people therefore No express their views on tiie question through the ballot box. -Sec. 1. Be it. enacted be the Senate and .-House of Representation of the .<State of Georgia in General Asssembly met, and it is hereby enacted by the au . thority of the same, That the question of Removal and Location of the Seat of Government of the State of Georgia be referred to the legal voters of said State, and. that they be required nt tbe next general 'election, to endorse on their tickets * Removal’ or * No Removal.’ If :to be Removed, where. And it shall be the duty of the mnuagers of such elec- ttion, to make return, to his Excellency the Governor, the number of votes polled for and against Removal and the places .voted for. Approved, February, 17th 1854. 3£ish ano Flesh.—Rev. C. W How ard, who is largely engaged in making Jimcin the upper part of the State, has applied to-the Governor to have the same reduction .made in his freights "that was made in favor of Mark A. ^Cooper. There was in Mr Howard’s case every reason for the reduction that 'has been given to excuse the other bar gain with Cooper, -except one. Mr. • Howard had an immenoe amount- of freight to transport, a -connecting road had agreed to reduce the price of bis freight to aid him in developing -the re sources and wealth of Georgia, tort he .-did not have the three or four hundred votes at his command, which alarmed his Excellency into the ether arrange ment. Mr. Howard asked for nothing more than bad been done for. another -citizen, and that was refused. This looks a little like turtle soup for one man, and Gar broth for another.— .Columbus Enquirer. For the Southern Watchman. YValtcn Co , Sept. 24. Mr. Editor My attention has been called to a statement over the signature of “ James Kilgore,” published in the Southern Banner of the 30th of August. It purports to be a correction of the statement with which I furnished you sometime since, every word of which, and much more than it contained; I am prepared to prove by unimpeachable testimony, and force the lie down the throat of this new correspondent of the Banner’s. In order to have a proper understand ing of it, it may be well to give all the facts of the case. The brother of this man Kilgore having been arrested un der a State’s warrant, I was called up- < n to Bigu the bond for his appearance at court. In order to do this, it was neces ory to go to Monroe—this Jim Kiigo c agreeing to furnish a licrse to work in my rockaway. In this manner we wept—I signed the bond—and upon Attention! Serfs! of the CcNGRSSIONAL DISTRICT I ! ! KNOW YE, that it doth seem to us proper, nay, it is “ wise, liberal, and just, 1 ” that we, even WE, should once more assume to ourself our ancient and undeniable RIGHT to represent you our dearly beloved subjects, in the Councils of the Nation, at the city of our Fathers, called Washington TO THE END, THEREFORE that our said right may be respected and our royal wishes gratified, we do OF OUR MERE GRACE, ORDER AND DECREE, that OUR DUT FUL AND LOYAL SERFS, inhabit ing and beingf found in this, the afore said Sixth District, (which we have heretofore, and do now claim, to be OURS, by DIVINE RIGHT,) shall on the first Monday in October next (it being also the first day of said month,) issue forth from your Several habitations and places of sojourning,and repair to your several precincts, or places of voting, which have been estab lished by law, and that you. and every one of you, do deposit, in tbe ballot boxes, which will be ptovided for the purpose, tickets, with OUR name writ ten, or printed thereon, as your choice for Representative in the next Con gress, which will be, in number, the THIRTY FOURTH,since the adoption of the Constitution, which formed the glorious Union I” And when you shall have so voted and done, we do require each aud every one’of you,to depart again unto your said several habitations and places of sojourning, quietly and in good order, nothing inquiring, nothing DOUBTING ! Done, at our cattle, in Cobkham, this twentieth day, of the ninth month, in the year of the world, the five thou sand eight hundred and fifty-fifth ; the eighth year from our . Patriotic Suthern vote IN FAVOR of the Wil- mot Proviso in the Oregon Bill—the third year from our Social Speech, (on politics!) before St. Tammany Hall Society, New York, and the same, dating from the Epoch of the burial of tbe hatchet of discord, between the two wings -of our then belligerent, but now happily reconciled and .reorganiz ed subjects, which event took place in the city of Atlanta, in September, Anno Domini, 1858, just thirty days prior to our aforesaid Tammany Hall speech, in which we took occasion to denounce seven-tenths of you as “ Secession ists” and Fanatics,” seeking “to*. stroy this government/” GOD AND, LIBERTY 111 DON LOPEZ HOWELL, Beilini of the Sixth District. gressional District, it is proper that I should declare the principle* which shall govern nie, if the will of the People should advance me to that position. This I shall do in a few words. Before proceed, however, to discharge this duty, l will say. that in taking this step, I have violated no known rule of party organization; nor hare I offended against the usages of the Democratic party—the party with which I have al ways acted. The distinguished gentle man whose opponent I have become, is understood to be in the field without the usual party nomination; and I of course, do not deny his right thus to place hitnself before the people. I have now to say, that elected or not the Constitution of the United States shall be my platform ; and its principles as illustrated in the adminintrations of republican Presidents, shall be main tained and supported to the extent of my ability. 1 hold that the Constitution was the work of the people of the several States and expresses their will; and that their representative, whatever may be his no tions of expediency and propriety, has no right to depart from it. The Con stitution and the will of his constituents not violative of the Conslitutio i, are his laws. I will say further, that I hare no fault to find with the Constitution believe it to be the greatest political work of the human mind; and if re spected and adhered to, the several States will be peaceful; religious and civil rights will never be disturbed; and the whole people moving on harmo niously together, will be prosperous and happy, and the UNION perpetual For who can doubt but that the discords which have occasionally disturbed the equanimity of the people, and which now convulse the country from one ex tremity to the other, have arisen from threatened or attempted infractions of the Constitution. As an instance, see the movements of the abolitionists. I believe that the representative has no power to compromise away the rights or a particle thereof, of his most humble constituent; aud that he is intrusted with power by the people to maintain and defend, but on no consideration, to surrender their rights. I believe that Congress has no power to adopt a system of Internal Improve ments ; for that policy raises tribute in one section of the country, to be ex pended in another; and independent of tbe absence of any constitutional author ity for that purpose, it is unjust to tax the people over the entire Union to raise money to be expended on the Mississip pi and its great tributaries; nor should money be raised in that section to be expended in the North-eas*. I believe that Congress has no right to tax the people to an extent beyond what and to place both on terms of equality- in all the relations of society. I believe that as our Government is based on the principles of right, justice, and liberty, no modification or change therein, or its laws, should be proposed or effec.ed but in a manner to admit of the free action oi the public mind and ibtelligence upon it I believe that there can be no popu lar liberty where the freedom of con science is restricted. I believe that the Constitution of the United States should be strictly con strued, and that such a construction is the only safety of the people. I believe that what is usually termed a latitudinarian construction of the Con stitution, is dangerous to the public liberty, and enables men to substitute their opinions for special constitutional provisions. To conclude, I believe in the Repub lican exposition of the ConstitutioB, as to be found in the Virginia and Ken tucky Resolutions, ’98 & ’99, as ex pounded by Mr. Madison. Circumstances of a private character, will prevent me from canvassing tbe District in the usual manner, and there fore I submit my address to the reflec tion of the people. Very Respectfully, L.

Johnson for making them, on ihe first Monday in October.—American Discipline. is demanded by the absolute wants of the Government for Constitutional ob jects. I believe that people inhabiting ten i tory belonging to the United States, which is of course, the property of the United States, have no right or power by territorial legislation, to prevent the citizens of any State of this Union from migrating to said territory, and carrying with them any property which by the laws of the State from which they emi grated, they were authorized to hold and enjoy. I believe that when the people of a territory form a State Government for admission into this Union, they must form a Republican Government; and that their Constitution must contain no provishn which comes in conflict with the Federal Constitution ; and that they may establish or prohibit slavery by their Constitution; and that Congress has no power to interpose to prevent the exercise of this unquestionable right. I believe that opposition to the princi ples of the Nebraska Kansas Act, in re lation to the subject of slavery, is unmis takable evidence of hostility to the peo ple of the South; and that all persons who partake in such opposition, are un fit to be recognized as component parts of any party or organization not hostile to the South; aud that the Southern people should have no party connection with any matt who does not concur fully in this sentiment. I believe that a strict adherence to the fourth resolution of the Georgia Platform, as it is called and understood, is essential to the safety of the South, and that every mad of the South, slave holder or not, ought to unite in an im moveable resolution toi maintain it in its letter and spirit. Such a detormina tion is necessary to check the progress of that fanaticism, Which seeks the abo iition of slavery, and the depression of 1 he white race to the level of the black; L ARGE supplies of Best Groceries, ar riviug every day atT.

W. Wessou, who is a superior and practi cal millwright, and who. rile undersigned takes pleasure i» recommending as being un surpassed in his professional line, now begs leave to notify the public, that lie is ready to convert wheat into flour, or corn into meal, in as quick time, and in a manner to giTe as general satisfaction as any other milltof tho same number of runners, either Ifarth, South, East or West. These mills have but one run, each, for wheat and corn, but will each grind with ease from one hundred to one hundred and fifty bushels per day; they are aever inter- ferred with, either by high or low water, con sequently persons Wishing, or sending wa gon loads of grain to be ground, will at nro time be detained longer than a few hnna I have in my employment, Mr. Hawkim* Wright, who is a practical miller, and whose character for honesty and veraci' v, is so welt known to this Community that 1* need only* say, his services are engaged as principal miller. All grain received, to he ground at these mills will be weighed and toled accordingly, aud a certificate of both the amount receiv ed and returned will bo sent back to tho per son sending the grain. And in connexion 1 herewith I wish distinctly to notify the pub lic, that I have been atconsidcrahle expense' in procuring and fitting up two superior No. 10, anehor-brand bol t ing cloths. Those cloth* are in fine order, and it is both m-y interest aud my wish to keep them so. Flour ground from wheat wet, or quite damp, wilt so<m not only bring to ruin clothe of thisdcscrip- tion, but can never be made to please those sending the grain either in quality or quan tity—when in most cases the mills or the* miller, after doing all that they can do om bad wheat, generally receive their full share of blame. Wheat, therefore, sent to these mills, either wet or quite damp, will in no instance be ground uutil the same is proper ly dried,and in every iustnnce of ibis nature, the miller is to be the only judge Wishing to keep these mills iu constant operation, the undersigned will be glad to purchase both wheat and corn. Wheat will be purchased if thoroughly dry at the rate of 60 lbs, and corn at the rate of 56 lhs,. to the bushel, delivered at the mills, and lh» highest cash prices will be paid for either. The undersigned is now residing at these mills and intends giving his personal andP constant attention to the keeping the same* in complete order, so as at all times to give merited satisfaction to all that may patron, ise him, and he is vain enough to think tHal* he himself is “ some” millwright, and miller too.
