Mutual confidence, ; ' I bn common principles and purposes, pre vailed. , Thus we submit, is no exaggerated picture of the late canvass and its result. ’JV g„i,trailon of the Cabinet was certainly ui'/’orfuaata.

In all thi* there is a lesson. The President, though unsuccessful so far, ha* not forfeited pub lid confidence nor essentially impaired hiscupacid for good. No man knows l etter than he tiiat the people of the United States gave, in the recent election, an unmistakable verdict in favor of the integrity of the constitution, and as unmistaka bly in utter condemnation of the whole brood of extremists, of whatever color or shade. When he undertakes, then, to enter judgment, uttd to c.di •forth execution, it is bis moral duty to place 'hat process in the hand* of no higher law t.natic, but into those whose faith has been illustrated in works —whose fidelity to tho constitution reaches far enough into it* history to show that patriotism and not official patronage, is the power that sway them. The Journal of Commerce too, was an ardent ad vocate of Gen. Pibrcb’s election, and it seems now to feel that it ha* committed a capital error, for which it evidently desires in some degree to atone. licncc, wc find in it tho following article, from a New Yorker, alaoademocrat, who voted for tlie President: "We are witnessing a new spectacle among us— the moral prostration of a new President during the first six months of hia administration. Gene ral Pierce ia the first American President who has lost ground in tho beginning of hia government: tho first who lias either been deserted by his otigi nal friends or boooine to anything like such an ex tent obnoxious to the public. That General Pierce lias gone down in tho public esteem, and lost the prestige wliich uttendc'l hia assumption of political power, will not bo denied; nor that lie ins most directly and powerfully contributed to the dismem berment ot the Democratic party. It is none the loss certain that out of this anomulou- state oi things consequences are likely to come which may materially ulicct our foriegn policy, and thereby the fortunes of commerce in oilier countries. in common witli the rest of the country, 1 looked with favor upon the nomination of General Pierce, because lie represented a great principle, which was to be jealously maintained—tho integrity of the union of these Slates. Opposed as our best citizens and wisest politician always have been to Hie choice of now and untired men for high sta tions, n vast proportion of tho Democratic par ty would have proforred tho nomination of some one of onr experienced statesman, who had ucliiovod an honorable fame by well-known ser vices to tho country. But harmony could ho se cured only by bringing into tlie field u now man; and there certainly wus no one who gave fairer pro mise than General Pierce. lio was nominated l.y acclamation, and the national Democratic party everywhere abandoned itself to tho most confident hopes. Ho stood forth before the country as the representative of the grand idea of nationality, He seems to havo perfectly understood hia position. 11l a letter to tho Mayor of Boston, after his elec tion, ho Baid that “ho knew iio was neither nomi nated nor elected for any personal qualifications, but us a reliable representative of the national sen timent.” Ho fell thia. He had nevei been largely in publio life; he wus consequently not very much known as apolitical man. When Ids star ruso over tho country tho mists of uncertainty hung bo f„re it, and, like other objects seen through a mist, it loomed tip in undue proportions. But these mists arc gono now, and the object can bo survey ed witli accuracy. No President could ever ex pect such a majority aa he had. The party that elevated him seemed like tho nation. As the tele graph flashed tho nows everywhere on the night which followed his election, the liouvons rang w ith glad shouts, and every hilltop blazed with bonfires. It rumindua nutlet the enthusiasm which spread through tlie Roman States on tho proclamation of tho amnesty of Pitts IX. All wont well till tho inauguration, and, although tlio ohoioo of his Cabinet took tho country by sur prise, despite the fact that General Pierce declared it to be u unit, yet its elements seemed to lie any thing but homogonoous. But hitherto till that waa known of the new President was in his favor. lie hud becomo endeared to tiic nation by the ter rible bereavuiment be suffered in tho loss ot his son. iio was affable and familiar to all; he bad boldly avowed his determination, in all his acts, to stand firmly by the constitution, the compromise of 1850, and tho national Democratic party, lie could not havo given stronger pledges; tlie' Uniun men desired no stronger pledges; and from Wash ington’a time to ours no President had ever been favored by so fair an opportunity to win lasting fame. “ But it soon bocamc evidontthatGeueral l’icreo had adopted a falso, feeble, and fatal policy, as tlio guide ot his administration—namely, to unite ull tactions by bestowing honors and emoluments up on their leaders. This was his idea of uatiouali ty and a national democracy. He committed that mistake which no public man ever committed without ruin, lie said Ida friends for tlie sako of buying his onemios, and thus lost them both. He either abandoned or neglected nearly all tho great men oi the country who had saved tlie Confedera tion in the fearful agitation of 1850, and ho be stowed noarly all tlio great and profitable pluoes in his gilt unon thoso fuctioniits, north and south, who hud boon tlio original loineuters of abolition ism on the ono side, and of disnuion and secession on tho other, No men who had distinguished thorn selves as friends of the Union wore taken into his councils; aud tho Government, in nearly ail its department-, is now, with few exceptions, in the hands of those men who became notorious only ns the avowed cuemieeof tho pcaco measures of 1850 —mousnros which Genera! Pierce had oflou declar ed could alono save the Union at that trying crisis —and men who General Pioroe declared should ro coive no countemmco or favor from him, and who should ho looked upon with distrust and suspi cion by every true friend of the country. This policy is nnmistakeably manifest now ; and it is fust Working out itß inevitable results. Every national Democrat iu the Union has become hos tile to the Administration, ami it finds that in leaning upon tho fuotions on which it has shower ed all its favors it is leaning on a brokem reed. General Piorco has no party now. The Freesoih rs of the free States have abandoned none of their ground or their principles. They suspended their agitatiousund intrigues and active hostility against the law and constitution only long enough to get place and power, and then grow more virulent and factious than over. The Disunionists of the South havo taken exactly tlio ame course, and among tlio thousands of both, Gcu. Pieroo cannot point to a man of them in whom tlio country has confidence, and lie is, doubtless, now convinced that by giving these tactionists his favors and confidence he has tnude no now friends for himself, aud lost his old ones—that, instead of allaying agitation, he ha • actually revived it when it was dead, that, instead of consolidating tho Pcmocratic party, ho has hope lessly dismembered it. Tho most mortilying weakness is thus stamped upon the Administration—something often more fatal to a Government than the boldest iniquity Whore wickedness uudermines one Ministry, weakness prostrates u score. The broad contras’, all this offers to tho bold policy of General Jack son is a matter of universal remark, and its effects are working themselves ont quite last ouough. Your readers must not tall into a .mistake here. 1 attach none too much importance to this unwise c and wrong distribution of office and power by our r President. Office here means just what it does > under mouarohies—power. The political power ol the United States is now in tho hands of the ene- c tnics of the Union, just as far as tho holding of « office is by the constitution put in the bauds ot the i President, besides, there ib ono rule established . by our political experience which has no excep tion—the fate of everyone of our Administrations lias been dcoided by the manner in which the of- 1 tieial patronage of the Government has boon dis- < tributed. Tho opponents of a triumphant party 1 never look for its favors. It is expected that the friends of a new President will -hare his eonit- , deuce ami tavors. Therefore when Dfanvionists and Free-oilers have from the beginning been re- 1 cciving by far tho largest share of office and place 1 Gen. Pierce could bestow, iboy have been quite as i much surprised as havo their opponents. They did not expect favors—they did not, in most in stances, ask for them—and now they do not hesi- s tate to avow with greater boldness than ever their t obnoxious and dangerous principles. Very lew ( promiueut men have received what they desired, or got It when it would have been acceptable. Men 1 by the hundred have been given offices for which i they had little qualifications, while tho ablest na tional Democrats havo been insulted by the tender of offices tar below their station and merits. This party explains the position of embarrass ment and mortification in which Genera! Pierce t now finds himself. I havo been as brief as possi- ( bio. It is a subject of umnixed regret to me to be ( obliged to write as I do; but 1 am quite sure that 1 only express the feelings and opinions of the vast 1 majority not only in the Democratic party, but in i all parties, and this will grow more apparent every , day. One of the earliest malign results of this is, that it has put a premium upon taction aud agitation, ■ sinee agitators and lactioaists are the only men , who have been rewarded. Those men had been effectually humbled. They had laid down their and submitted to the power aud supremacy 1 of the law und the constitution, Tt.sv were no i longer dangerous, because they were powerless.— They had no idea of renewing that ill omened agi tation; but they are again daugeroua, because they havo been clothed with power. That power they are oace more usiug. They hold their beads high —they bear themselves proudly. Union men hang their heads—they feel tnatthev have been betray ed. They have been, 1 Gen. rieroe will have to oonfrout a powerful phalanx of Union-men in the next Congress.

Cix hum ! La ui see. The Georgia democracy are reunited, based upon ti-e «diuitle<i ascendency of the secessionists. They have a secessionist a? their gubernatorial rundidate; but mark you, they stand upon the Baltimore platform—they sweet by the inaugural -and, as they have good substantial reasons to hi, are deeidediy wc:i pleased with tbo adminis natioti, ail excepting Governor Cobb, whose posi ' an continues to be a perplexing individual exccp tioi. of considerable hurdxhipand anxiety. But he :s in the ring, back again among the democracy, nud whatever the issue of tho impending election, : o will ut length have made good a claim upon the iiititorities at Washington. The Marietta (Ga.) Advoe- le, ia describing a democratic mass meeting at Kingston, fa settie icnt in the same neighborhood wo prosumo,) says that— “ There was on the speakers 1 platform an array of talent equal to any we have ever seen upon any -irnilar occasion. The speaking could not well nave been surpassed, covering a* it did the whole ground, exhibiting the positions of tho two cat di late;: and the two partita and their respective •laim* upon the people oi Georgia. The speakers were Joim YV. 11. Underwood, Gen. Hugh A. Ha raison, 11--l . Herschel V. Joiuison, Gov. Cobb, Gov. ai 1 Donald, lion. Ab.-aloC' H. Chappell, and Uon.M.J. YVcllb'-.ru. Tho occasional showers of' rain wlueh fell during tho speaking did not Intel ■ rupt the continued attention of'lhc assemply. It would bo out of the question for us to attempt to give even an outline ol the arguments of the sove- ' ral speukers.” Here it will be . n that poverty and politics make strange bodleliuw*. Tl is Gov. McDonald, if wo mistake not, was the secession opponent of 1 Gov. C« bb for the governor.- hip ot Georgia of 1 1851. Wc do not often find such diverse mate- ( rials mingling together upon the stump with such enthusiasm that the “occasional showers of rain which fell during the speaking did not interrupt th« continued attention of the assembly.” Such appears to be the temper of the canvass throughout tlie state. But the enthusiasm is not confined to Gov. Cobb and hia secessionist allies. The Union party are quite us lively, if not a little more so, and h ive tlie advantage oi fighting upon the offensive, from the unbroken consistency of their position now with their position of full two yea re ago. Crtain rumors, also, appear to have reached Washington that Jenkins may possibly prove to lie moro than a match for Johnson, and we shall not be in the least degree surprised if Johnson is swamped by Jenkins. Party reorganiza tions may be ordered; hut where they conflict with the consistently of principles a good many plain, old-fashioned people, in tlio “rural districts, wii! bo very apt to hold bulk, at least till they see how the tiling works. Wo uru afraid, too, that the split recently decreed by the re-divided democracy at Syracuse, will opo ruto U* tiie prejudice of the reorganized democracy of Georgia. In its turn tlie Georgia election of October will have a powerful influence upon ours of November. Should Mr. Johnson be elected in Georgia, that result will react to the advantage of tho soft shells in New York, and vies versa. In a word, the last chance to the adiuinstrutiou for tlio practical enforcement of democratic harmony lunges upon tho Georgia election. In this light tlie local canvass in that State rises to tho dignity of a national issue, involving the iccanstructionor reduction of the national democratic party rank and file. A fortnight or so will settle the ques tion. Dix, Garvin & Co.—Another Letter. This now firm, in their anxiety to acquire a little notoriety in Goorgia, have submitted to the public a second letter from Mr. Dix, which they hope may aid tho oloetiou of the Secession candidate, John son, and cement more closely the coalition of tlie Frecsoiiers and Secessionists. The late hour at which this document fell nndor our observation precludes any extonded comment upon it, even if wo deemed it of sufficient consequence. Mr. Dix persists in denying that he was ever an Abolitionist. This is particularly adroit as he was nover charged witii lliatoffoneo. He however does not explain how he happened in 1813, to vote for CiiAiiLiis Fiuncis Aiiams, of Massachusetts, for Vico President, an Abolitionist of tlio Garrison School, nor docs ho attempt to explain away that beautiful sentiment uttered by him about “a cordon of free States surrounding the South, aud compelling Slavery, lilce a scorpion encircled by fire, to sting it self to death /” Any allusion to these little matters might have required somo explanation, which might not have been satisfactory to his new allies. Ilia second subject is Frecsoilism, on which lie shows himself quite as good “ a northernmun with Southern principles’ ’ as Mautin Van Buren, hut strange to say he omitted all mention of his having voted for the Wilnuit Proviso/ —all allusion to the banner under which ho opposed Cass in 1818, on which was inscribed, “ Free Soil, Free Labor, Free SrEEcu, and Free Men.” He was equally oblivious oi his oft repeated declaration that, “ the Wilmot Proviso is constitutional ,” and hia continued and unvaried opposition to the Com promise, in all shapes because it did not oon tain a prohibition of shivery in the territories of Utah aud Now Mexico. These were little epi sodes in his history, which the General very graciously omitted all allusion to, mid his gen erous and kind friend and partner, “ private Citizen ” Garvin, would not expose, otherwise the embraco witli his brother Dix might not be so cor dial aud fraternal—the coalition between him and his now associates, the Prcesoilcrs, might bo for ever sundered. But why need we occupy our time aud spaoo with a notice of this letter, from this infamous Free soilor— a man who has done as much to poison the minds of the people of NewY'ork and tho North upon tlie subject ol slavery as either, Van Bcren or Seward. And yet ffo is now hold up by men, who two years ago pronounced him and his “ac caned alliances as a most proper man for South eru men to fraterniau witli. Does “ private Citi zen' I'’ 1 '’ Garvin aud his Freesoil and Secession asso ciates, think the people of Georgia “-fools," that they would insult them by such a monstrous pro position, us an intimate political association with such menus Dix, Vuoom, Brown, Maloney, Grey, Caul’EELL, and thcwlioloFroesoilpack; ox“huices"’ that they would barter their birth rights, their country, thoir own genic! South and their honor lor such a coalition. It is an insult, a gross insult, and so tho voters of Georgia will pronounce at tho polls.

Event* of a highly interesting character have I j been transpiring in a neighboring State, within a tew days pant, which have attracted the attention, , not only of thoae here and elaewhere who watch the political signs of the times, bntol the Presi dent himself, and nis constitutional advisers. Von will at once understand that i allude te the pro ceedings of the too Democratic Stale Conventions j held a few days ago at Syracuse, New York, i Thoae who acted together, and in apparent harmo ' ny and concert last year, in the Presidential elec tion, are now at opeu war. It muat not ba infer red from their having supported the same candi dates last year, and from their both going into the Baltimore Convention together, that there was really any more nnily or love between them than there is now, or than there has been since the “ Free soil" portion went off upon the Buffalo platform and for Van Boren in 1818. No; the Utter never acknowledged that act to be a politi cal Bin, end have consequently never confessed their fault nor aaked forgiveness: so fsr from it, they bout of the set end glory in it to this dsy. The two sections meted together last year upon s fcoll'w trace patched ap for the oocaaion; they were hungry tor spoils, and united to run down the game, trusting each to their own good lock end good management to obtain for themselves the whole carcase, or at any rate, the lion’s share, which, as , very one at ail conversant with New York politics knows, hu fallen to the lot not of the true, staunch, old-line Democrats, but to the more canning, adroit and fortunate seotlou known as the “Barnburners,” “Free soilers,” or “Softs,” or the followers of Van Buren; while the other section, headed by that indomitable old Democra tic paper, the Albany Argus, and by Daniel S. Dickinson, Ute U. 8. Senator, have been treated with a degree of neglect and indifference most un expected, unaccountable and mortifying. As to the result of the meeting of the party in Convention, or Conventions, at Syracuse, I need not speak; it is, thst two distinct State tickets have been nominated—one by each section of the Democratic party, each claiming to be the true, genuine and legitimate Democratic party of the State. Which ticket will be elected, if either, it were idle at this time to inquire, since this is to depend very much upon what course the Whigs in that State shall take—whether they shall act harmoniously together, or whether, ss 1 think will be the case, they, 100, shall divide, the “Free soilers" or “Sewardites” going by themselves, snd the “Silver Grays,” “Nationals,” or Fillmore men, acting by themselves. This matter will be deter mined when the Whigs come together in State Convention at Syracuse, ou the sth day of October. My present opinion is, that a com- plcte sohism will then take place in that party, and that the “National*” will be inclined to sus tain the ticket nominated by the old line Demo crat*. These two section* of the two old parties, you are aware, are now, and were in 1850, Com promise men. They have uniformly opposed the agitation of the Slavery question, and stood up fearlessly for the constitutional rights of the South. It is to them that the South is indebted for the passage of the Fugitive Slave Bill, and for the enforcement of the law since its passage; while the “Froe-soilers” of both parties—the Van Bureu men of the Democratic party, and the Sew ard men of the Whig party—have heretofore made fierce and bitter war, not only upon the Com promise measures, but upon those who advocated and sustained them; and this is the issue between the two sections of the two parties now. The “Free-soilers” are not exactly Abolitionists, bnt they are all Wilmot Proviso men, opposed, gene rally, to the execution of the Fugitive Slave Law, and in favor of repealing it as soon as they can get the power to do so. It will now bo said, in defence of the “ Freesoil ers,” who are the favorites of the present Admin istration, and are defended by the Union , that they have swallowed the Baltimore Platform. True, they have done so at their late convention, for the first time; but under what circumstances? They were written to, it is alleged, by Mr. Marcy, and informed that they must come square up to the Baltimore line: upon what penalty? Why, the penalty of losing the offices that had been so liberally bestowed upon them by the Administra tion, and of being “cast into utter darkness.” Under this state of things, is it to be wondered thatthoy voted for the resolutions prepared for them? Not at all. But why did they not vote for these resolutions last winter, or last spring, when brought forward by Mr. Taylor, in the Legislature? Why liuvo they swallowed resolutions now, as John Van Boren said he did, without looking at them, which they have heretofore violently and scornfully opposed? Cun any man be deceived into the belief that they have really rnd honestly repented, und suddenly, as it were, in the twink ling of an eye, became converted ? Credat Judaeus! Timeo Danaos, et dona ferenles. Will the South. trust these “Greeks” und their hypocritical, dis sembling professions t If they do, they will bo betrayed, and will deserve to be. General Clark, of Washington county, made a speech in the old line Democratic Convention, in which he entered into a review of the history of the “ Barnburners,” or “Freesoilers,” from 1848 to the present time. “In the convention of 1851,” ho stated, “ the Committee on Resolutions were out 25 hours, while the delegates were doing no thing. And what was the difference of opinion at that time ? Why, it was whether the Compro mise measures should be approved of. And who was the Chairman of that Committee—the person who refused to support those measures? Why, tho very man who said he spoke ‘ by authority ’ and represented the Administration, Mr. Coch rane. lie, Mr. C., refused to endorse the Com promise at that time, and has refused to do so ever since. [Cries of ‘ Trne,’ ‘ true. 1 ] He said he woald bo silent, bnt if called upon to say any thing, he must refuse to give his assent to the Fu gitive Slave Law. And he is the man, who, hold ing an office worth S4OOO a year—Surveyor of the port of New York—comes here and attempts to bully us by saying he speaks by authority. Is this the way freemen are to be insulted and bul lied?” But there was more “bullying” than by officials, and language; pistols and knives were exhibited by the Tammany b’hoys, and threats to use them were given out, reminding one of a scene at Oo" lumbus, when Mr. Toombs spoke with pistols by his side. There seems to have been a striking resemblance between these “ Freesoilers” of the North, and “ Fire eaters" of the Sonth, who are both acting in concert, and warriDg upon all who supported and support the Compromise measures —both ( untamed by the national administration, which upholds one in its right hand and the other in its left, bestowing offices and patronage upon each in uustinted measure, and only demanding in return fidelity to itself, not to the country, for its lavished favors. Will the South standby W&friwU in New York or will it permit them to be crushed to the earth! I know that you can render no material aid, but you can speak out, and a kind, approving word may do much to cheer and encourage those who have heretofore stood by you, in their present try ing contest. And if you do not stand by and cheer them, who will stand by the Sonth hereafter ? The “ Freesoilers," the Van Borens, the Giddingses, the Chases, the Preßton Kings, the Hales, the Hor ance Manns, the Albana Atlas, the N. V. Evening Post? Make the fatal experiment and see. Can it be that the South will condemn and disgrace Daniel S. Dickinson and those who refuse to join or act with your unrelenting enemies. I cannot behove it. I should be glad to copy some portion of the re marks of Mr. Sickles in the old line Convention, but must content myßelf with commending them to your notice. You will find them in the N. Y. Herald.

Dickinson’s , letter, in reply to the disingenuous article in the Union assailing him, and Vainly endeavoring to ' make him out a Wilmot Proviso man, nor the very ' timely and just expose of the unfairness and in justice of the Union's attack, by the Richmond 1 Enquirer, has escaped your observation. Both 1 have attracted muoh attention here, and have 1 turned the odium intended to be cast upon Mr. 1 Dickinson by the Government organ, back upon its own head. The blow aimed at one who has 1 uniformly stood forth in defence of the Bou*h, be cause he will not now, at the bidding of official au thority, unite with its enemies, has recoiled with 1 stunning effect. “What purpose," says the Ed itor of the Enquirer, “ the writer [of the article in the Government organ] sought to serve, we are at a loss to divine, but that be meant to sink Mr. Dickinson in the esteem of the South, is evident 1 from the nature of the article, unless it be unwar rantable to infer a murdeious intent from a savage stab at the very seat of life.” And with equal force and justness he then adds, “Be the blow, however, the stroke of a felon or friend, ii is not the less incumbent upon every Southern man, and especially every Virginian, to interpose in defence of one who did not shrink from the defence of the Suuth and Virginia, when they were assailed by traitoious hands,” To this sentiment estry Southern mas a*"’ * every true Southern man, l am ly and affirmatively will, cordial vithor" • l _ ...pond; and they can do eo . ...e least apprehension of any of Mr. D.’a antecedents; for he has come out and shown that in respect to the South, his record is clean and un tarnished ; and that those who attempt to preju dice him in the eyes of Southern men, by garbling his speeches, suppressing what does not answer their purpose, and publishing disjointed extracts, will themselves be covered with shame and confu sion, if they have not already become inaensibleto shame, and the good opinion of boneat men. The order has undoubtedly gone forth from this me tropolis, to raise the war-cry every where against one whose only political ain is fidelity to the Com promise measures and the South; the cry may be raised at the North, as I know it has already been taken up here by the atipendariea and defendants of the government; but will the order be obeyed at the South? Will yon, at the bidding of those holding “ a little brief authority,” and " brief" it certainly will be, will yon of the South be set on to cry down yonr friends ? But why do I ask— the very supposition is an offence, or it mould be were it not that we now see so many strange and ! incomprehensible things; so many prominent men whom we looked npon as standing firm and im movable upon the Union, Compromise platform, shifting ground, and attempting to kick the plat ' form they stood npon over, as if it were a Cob -1 house, a mere convenience, and not a permanent structure of principles. As a sign of the limes, I note that no man m rs , Jict here, will openly utter a wcffd in defence of Mr. Dickinson, however much be VUJ bare sym- pathized with him in his course in 1850, and up to the 4th of March last; nor express the least cen sure of John Van Buren and the “ Froesoilers,” however war nl) ho may have condemned them heretofore. Os course there. fan lie no r-aeon tor this, none whatever; it Kappna >o be so, that is all; besides, it is not to uc supposed that any American, boasting the freedom of speech aul though’, could ne intimidated into either tile sup pression of an opinion honestly eulertaiued, or the expre -ion o’ one nut entertained, by the sup position that it was in accordance win. the feel ings of those in power.

To General Pierce. Six— It sometimes becomes a duty, however painful that duty may be, to chide a friend. It is more painful alter that former friend has lost your regard, to trace his downward career, and to mark, one by one, the degrees of infamy from innocence to folly, from tolly to vice, from vice to crime— fiotn manly principle and bold denunciation of wrong, to upa’hy, from apathy to neglect of truth— from neglect to total disregard of, and open viola tion of the most sacred and solemn pledges. It is more paiuful alii, when that former friend has ae quired position, and by the gift of power placed himself almost above the reach of censure. You, eir, although a Democrat, may claim a hereditary consequence as a descendant of a family not far removed from royal blood. You have a better patent of nobility than this for a republican gov ernment, as your lather assisted in the birth of our liberties—better still, you have fought your owu way through Regencies, Halls, Senate cham bers, and won over fields of pedrigai, to a position which, when properly appreciated, is the highest official eminence on earth. These facts should at tract our attention. The pertinacity of your pur suit should elicit our sympathy, and your success should at least qualify our censure. If there be any combination ot circumstances that ravishes our admiration, it is the devoted application of no ble qualities to noble purposes. But if any crime for crime wo must call it, more than another calls for our severest reprehension, it is the reckless and obstinate perversion es these advantages and their open prostitution for tho purpose of uidiug private and party aggrandisement at the expense of private and public virtue. A man whose soul is too pure for the abode of temptation, deserves but litt-e credit for chastity or temperance; but lie, who by his rigid life and still more rigid and ve hement advocacy of pure and virtuous principle, first attracts our respect and then commands our most unbounded faith in his orthodoxy, would prove himself little less than a monster, should he gratuitously and without solicitation except from enemies, fall from his high estate and adopt, with out promise or hope of reward, tho laliacies and heresies whioh his whole life had labored to con demn. You, sir, were,the means, not the cause, of tbe late triumph of the banded factious which unrighteously sequettered the “sesame” name of Democracy. It is said that poverty mako* strange bed-fellows, and the general bankruptcy which be fel the trimming classof politicians some two years since, threw together as hungry and reckless apack as ever fought for gain. Meeting by appointment at Baltimore, they constructed a plutform, which satisfied every opposing section of the Union, and suited the peculiar views of every jamng faction and every dissident phase of this anomalous Babul; a platform which some of thememberscould “both stand and spit upon.” The consciences of the members, self-constituted and self-amenable as they were, were easily satisfied. Nothing was too pure for the tarnish of their touch—nothing too low for the exercise of their canning. So flexible were their principles, that upon the most vital points of law and governmental policy they “agreed to disagree,” provided each faotionshould receive a “proportionate share of Federal patron age.” Spoils, not principles, wis their object, and however repugnant to their own conceptions of right, they unanimously adopted a set of reso lutions specious enough to entrap the majority, so necessary for the accomplishment of their nefari ous designs. You, sir, are the successful creature of this monstrous combination. You, sir, are ei ther their equal in crime or their dupe. If the former, impeachment, conviction and disgrace would prove too light a punishment. Charity pla ces you in the latter dilemma. Hasten then to break with a combination whoso every associa tion brings disgrace. It was not to bo oxpeeted that leaders, whose lives were but a history of po litical corruption would, on the day of victory, lore go their stipulated reward; but it is passing strange that a President could so soon so; got his position, pledges and his oath. You had before and after your nomination, professed and promnlged the most Catholic opinions. Pledges, too, og pure as virtue itself, seemingly—pledges free and unex tortod, because gratuitous. Sentiments breathing an ardent and fervent dovotion to every article of the Confederation and every clauso of tho laws and Constitution—sentiments, too, whichseemed indi genuous; which, “like Isaih’s wild seraphic firo,” seemed to burn purely and spontaneously upon at least one living altar. In the hour of viotorvyonr spirit was chastened by the loss of a dear and on ly son, one in whom all your hopes were centred, that he might emulate and illustrate the virtues whioh, so far, had characterized your life. A na tion sympathised in your affliction, and millions of hearts heaved with rigbs responsive to a parent’s grief. You too were greeted on your way to the capital in a quiet bnt national manner, at every point where propriety woald allow the privilege. Your inaugural was theacme. It was tho capping stone to the culminating point of a political life which then, for its own honor, should havo ended. So far, your national record hud been consistent— your votes, your speeches, your pledges, your sen timents, your inaugural—indeed ail your public antecedents, breathed a catholic, a puro andan ar dent devotion to the Constitution and tho Union. But mark the sequel. As if to verify tho most extravagant preditions of your opponents, you have disproved almost every one of your asser tions. By distributing office to those who had bought it by support of you, you both have exhibited the disinterestedness of your motives and the purity of your patriotism. The people plaoed no confidence In the Triumvirs who com posed the Baltimore Convention, but they boasted of your promises. To provethe instability of hu man professions you have falsified the firmest pledges. Byemployinga “Swiss Guard,” you have proved yourself venial. With stronger secessions of powor than any previous President could boast, you have placed in cavil the strength of the Con stitution by bribing its enemies by the gift of pow er and place. A friend of the Fugitive Slave Law, “not because you were a candidate,” we have seen repeated attempts to violate it, and efforts made to impeach the Judges who havo the honesty to ad minister the law honestly, without provokiugyour attention. A btate Rights man, you have so far allowed California to claim and appropriate the en tire mineral wealth within her borders. To insult the pride of native Americans, you search for for eigners to fill the offices. In utter contempt of the comity which should exist between na tions, you have insulted Spain by sending to her punctilious Court as Minister, pending a delicate question, a French Emigro, whese great est merit is that be is more than charged with Ja cobitism and Fillibusterism. Devotedly attached to the Constitution, you disregard its plain provis ions by appointing to office a Senator palpably dis qualified, but who, like the others, hurries off be tween the sittings of the Senate that he may se cure the $9,000 of bounty money. Identified as you claimed to be in sentiment with the Compro mise, you have degraded it by disgracing its au thors and supporters and advancing its enemies. Opposed to Freesoilistn, you have entrusted the keys of the principal money chest to the Van Buren Freesoil candidate for Governor of New York. Opposed to abolitionism, yf q have furnish ed the means to corrupt the democratic party of Massachusetts and now they are cheek by jowl with the enemies of the Union. Charged with ap pointing Freesoilers to offiee, you reply “ that they are not guilty of present Freesoilism,” as if he who committed murder six months since is not as guil ty now as then. You have thus, with the country perfectly quited on the day of your accession, in augurated an agitation which jeopards the Union. A member of the rigid Presbyterian school, which in time of the Bcotch Covenanter’s detested poli cy, you have placed at the disposal ot the Catholic Bishop a man-of-war ofthe navy, at the very time too when they are attacking the freedom of onr educational system. A Puritan in polities, you openly reward a Jew for using foreign money to advance your election.

Judgeship or the Northern Circuit—Col. tin-hard M. Johnston. The writer not being affected wdh the cioethes scribendt, would not have been induced to intrude Upon the press and the public, had not the friends of the other candidates for the Judgeship ot this Circuit, respectively presented their ekiu.s to the office for which they are couicnding. Every person has tho right, and should coi.siJer it his duty, to do every thing, honorable, in his power, for the election ot his frieiid, if he consid ers him qualified to fill the position for which be aspires. i T Col, Johnston, being a young man, and never before having been a candidate before the people for any office, renders it necessary to particularize in order tbft the people may know for wh in they are voting or voting against. Judge Andrews r having presided in this Circuit for three eousecu tive terms of office, is of course well known, i 01. * Hardeman is also wall known, being al one time r Solicitor General of the uircuit, and having been a ’ practitioner at tbe bar for many years. ’ In scholarship and talent Col. Johnston has but few superiors; and albeit he is young, in point of 1 ability, tl.e writer can yield to neither of his com petitors tho pre-emiuenee. Col. J. is a son of the Rev. Malcolm Johnston, and was born and reared 1 in Hancock county. He graduated with the high est honors in the first class that Macon University turned out, ar.d was the first Alumnus who e.er addressed the Alumni of said institution ; shortly after his graduation he repaired to Angus’.i and attended a full course ot lectures in the Law School of Judge Gonld, and was admitted to the Bar in that city. The greater part of the time since his admission to the Bar, Col. J. has devoted himself to his profession, and having a mind so wall train ed, besides a natural talent, that he has made ra pid progress in the acquirement of legal lore ; and he is considered by tbe members of tho prolcssicn with whom he has had tho fortune to mingle, to be surpassed in cgnl attainments by few, if any of the younger members of iho fraternity. Haviug shown who Col. R. M. Johnston i-, and that he is well qualified for the office for which he aspires, the writer most earnestly commends him to the suffrages of tho voters of the Circuit, well knowing that if they elect him, thoy will find in him a competent and faithful officer. LySANDEK. For the VhnnicU arid Setitiml. Col. Milledge—Mr. Jenltint. Mr Editor—A few days since a correspondent over tho signature of “Observer” made a very sin gular and extraordinary expose, through tlieChrou icle and Sentinel, of the confessions of Col. J n Milledge on the stump. That writer said, thal Col. M., who always profoased to uct with and bc'ong tothe Whig party, actually confessed in a public speech that “ho voted for Geo. W. Lamar in 1842,” inoppositiou to Charles J. Jenkins!— and thut “he did not recollect having voted for Mr. Jenkins since 1842! 1 ” This sta.emont of “Observoi” us touished every body of all parlies. For no man, of any party, had previously supposed Col. M:l --ledge capable of practicing, for a series of yeurs, such a systematic course of duplicity as ho thus confessed. For eight to ten years he went regu larly to tho polls and deceived alike Mr. Jenkins, hiß friends and opponents. Certainly, unless Col. Miliedge’s memory is greatly at limit, his conduct has no parallel. Hence, all men of all parlies hoped that ho would be able to relieve himseif b. a prompt denial; but up to this time tho public expectation lias been totally disappointed. Col. Milledge has not protended to deny the statements of “Observer,” that I have heard or seen, ami his long silence must bo regarded as an admission ol their truth. This is struuge, pussing strange! Col. Milledge had not only always professed to be a supporter of Mr. Jeukius, but had successfully made the impression upon all parties that he was acting in good faith. What then must have been the mortification of his friends, to have, from his 1 own lips, such an admission as that promulgated by , ‘Observer.” i As evidence that Col. Milledge had profcs-i- J the highest admiration for Mr. Jenkins, and stool pledged to his support, allow me, Mr. Editor, to introduce the following letter, written by John Milledge to a Whig County Covcntion, which as sembled in Augusta on the first day of September, 1849, for the purpose of nominating candidates tor the Legislature. It is a pointed, explicit letter. Read it: Auousta, August 29th, 1849. Gentlemen Having heard that my name might probably be brought before your body us a candi date to represent this county in the next Legisia ture,l take this opportunity to make u few remarks in reference to thut matter as connected witli my self. i hope I have no selfish ambition to bo grutilied at the expense of tbc public good. A man who is not ready at all times to yield his own wislios, when he can thereby promote the wolfare of bis fellow-citizens, ought not to be trusted, and de serves not their confidence. These are my sentiments,and lam willing, when necessity demands it, to illustrate them by my acts. At the approaching session of our Legislature, it is apprehended that measures opposed to the in [crests and prosperity of onr oily will bo agitate!, in which event, who will be more capablo to resist and counteract such hostile demonstrations, than our former faithful and influential representative, Charles J. Jenkins, Esq. i’ermit mo then, in mis otnergoncy, to direct your attention, above uil others, to that gentlemuu whose valuable services at this time, when they are so much needed, I trust he will not withhold, and which, with efforts commensurate with their importance, 1 hope you may bo able to secure. llis nomination, you know, will be grateful to your constituents, and to no one of them more than myself. John Milledge. As the lawyers often say, “comment is superflu ous.” This, I think, is one of the eases; and I leave Col. Milledgo to reconcile this lettor, with his acknowledgment, that “ho did not recollect voting for Mr. Jenkins sinco 1842,” and to convince Ins new allies, if he can, that he is now worthy of their confidence and support. Another Observer. i For the Chronicle A Sentinel. Lj.wiUNCirvu.LE, Ga., Sept. 24, 1858. * Mr. Editor:—By appointment, the Hon. A. i). (| Stephens was hero to day to address a largo andi enco wbe came to hear him. Before the speaking began, however. Col. lieu- ( ry P. Thomas, the Democratic candidate for Sena- , tor in this County, made application for lease to join in the discussion, whioh was readily granted. Permit me to say that some of his friends, who fore saw the conseqnonces, remonstrated with him a gainst such a stop, but the Colonel was inexorable. Speak ho must, and speak he would. Neither Mr. : Stephens nor any body else should come here and tear off the mask of Domocraey and oxpose its de- 1 fortuities, without an effort oil his part to replace t it. We admire the spirit, but think it worthy of a t hotter causo. t According to the arrangement, Mr. Stephens led 1 offin a speech of an hour and a quarter’s length, i in which he reviewod the history of parties, in that 1 mild, candid, yet bold and forcible mat. nor, which I characterizes all his efforts. He assigned to men t and things their proper names und places—spoko ( of the exalted position which Georgia assumed in 1 1850, and the commanding influence which by the < action of her Convention, she exerted over the < nation. He attributed to Mr. Jenkins the paterni- i ty of the Georgia Platform, upon which he now stood—showed his conneotion with all the impor tant measures of State policy for tho lost twenty ' years, and demonstrated that lie was a man, whose J gentlemanly bearing, brilliancy of intellect, com- ( preheusiveness of inind and purity of hoart, ren derod him every way fit for any office which the people could confer upon him. Upon the other hand he showed that Mr. John- l son had never b3en connected with any important measure of State or National policy, except the ' movement of the Southern Rights party in 1850 i and ’sl, and that, although he now repudiated the doctrines of disunion and secession which some of the leaders of that party ptomulged, still, from his 1 Coarse at that time he was, at present unfit to gov ern and nnworthy the honors to which he aspired. During the progress of iiis speech Mr. Stephc s threw ont several well bated hooks lor Col. Tiio mas to biteat, one of which was the Algerine Law He would not disease this question unless his hon orablc friend should introduce it. This said, Mr. Stephens sat down. The Colonel then arose, m d alter endeavoring to excuse himself, begun to swallow the hooks which bad been set for him and continued to take them down, ono at a time’ until all were gone. This done, the Colonel began to flounder and flounce, like a fish, darting off in every direction. He abused every body and the rest of mankind, except President Pierce, bis ap pointmente and his supporters. “The Washing ton Übion said that the President wonld appoint no man to office who at the time of his appoint ment, was the least tinctured with opposition to the Compromisean J the Colonel bad “no doubt but that all of them had signed a bond to that es feet;” (I wonder if ho was in earnest ?) When the Colonel picked ap the Algerine hock he mouthed it for some time, and when it was swallowed doubt less be thought tbat he had given Mr. Jenki-* thunder and perfectly demolished little All-'' ’ concluded his speech by telling tbe * -*• Be wanted them to vote for Mr- T - people that he do so conscientious!-• -onnson, if they oonld tor himse/e ’ j ; but he wanted them to vote —■" j wnether they could do it consistently with their consciences ot not; then he sat down We opine that bnt few who heard the Colonel can vote for him without some conscientious scruples. Mr. Stephens then arose in all the majesty of his great mind, and for abont one hour and a half en chained the attention of his audience with that sonl-cheering eloquence, which occasions liki- > I this, when charges are made against his political friends, never fail to call forth. I will not follow ! him through the whole of his speech. Suffice it to say, that all who heard him were compelled to ' accord to him and his canse tbat iust meed of ho nor and respec. which the effort demanded. Every ODe sympathised with the Colonel, and * were sorry that he persisted in hia error. His own ' political friends were doubtless satisfied that he s hsd injured his cause and brought it into disre f P,> A few ladies were present to grace the occasion ' with their smilingoonntenances and hear the Ett l tie Giant tall. They were all Jenkins and Ste - phew men, end will long remember the._ , -ions which this occasion made upon theirminds. We understand that a number of them were polled 1 when the speaking was over, and without a single a exception, they voted for Mr. Jenkins. Respectfully, yonrs, <te. tor the Chronicle and Sentinel. Liquor Argument at Crawfordrllle. In reply to “Justice,” I would merely say, that if the position which the speaker took w>« not such as 1 stated it, then there was no sense in the argument, unless he was merely begging a ques tion in order to delude the mini's of his audience. Nobody pretends that the majority have a right to govern a minority contrary to the Constitution or the law; because the majority have the right and the power to change or alter, either the one or the other, as they may find b»t to conduoe to the happiness and proeperity of the whole, the gov erning principle being always the greatest good to the greatest number, without infringing npon the natural rights of any.

Speculators and I exporters are comparatively idle, the operations of the I I liter being eontined to tho execution of small orders pre- I vi us to tiie dose of the season, and the former deterred I by the dearness of money and the doubt overhanging the future from extending tb. ir purchases.
