the/wb platfonn in MiUcdgeville, when the very
sentiment which !>e quotes was distinctly set forth
in the platform ol 1855, and re attirmeu in every
plat fonn since!
J So.ue cue is repr rted to have said, that 1 stated
in nc, * oeob at Canton ou the firt day of Septem
ber. ;lu;t tho Alien Suffrage clause had been strick
en “Ut of the Kansas bill in the Heoateof the Doited
Sir 1 before th* vote of the approving

I Bin this man, after oxpret>Hug hie “ regret” at
‘ hot ii pr* tendtd was want of truth in me, goes
rip I “U to tiahe this wonderful statement. “Mr.
1 1 li ui.il others had preached it all over Georgia,
tlo.t there WHsriqiifitt.fr 8 ‘Vereignty in the bill. The
C>>tr. I of the United tdlales said there is
> ’ thing. Which should the people believe.
Mi lh ior tin* Supreme Court of the United States/ ’
Now, I .-ay distinctly, that the Supreme Court has
mid no such t mg as is here represented. It is to
ai!y u. true. The Supreme C*ur. hat not said :
tati*or im not in. Iht Kama* bill. The Supreme ■
Court bus derided that the Musuci Compromize }
wru *neonztitHlional. Did It, therefore, decide !
•hat the not whs never passed f That Cornt has also !
Ui aided that Cougrets could uot delegate to its
ng nt, the Territorial Legislature, a power which
Congress itself oidnot possess, but it has not de*
eid* a that the power wrs not attempted to be eou
vcy*din the Kansas bill. When the Supreme
Court decided that neither Congress nor the Terri
♦ • rial Legislature could exclude slavery, it decided j
precisely what was previously declared in tlie Arne- !
1 * an platform as fur back ns December. 1856, and, j
‘heuTore, the Supreme Court instead of contradict* .
absolutely affirmed what Mr. Hill and others |
1; id said. It l due to Judge Brown to say, he did l
not originate this misstatement., but borrowed it, and i
i\ |i: \\< and i with the American platform, proving hia i
ftu in nt untrue, pasted a hit book.
l i ilo speeohht Home, Judge Brown is reported
linvt Bind : “ Hill baa been aeked on lh? stump,
tun. nut again, if lu should be elected Governor of
a, Vv iild lie, iu case that Kansas should ap*

three several times in one day at Carrolton, but fail

. \ : hi'ttnds t hearers that I have often announced

keifondL I wish the people to distinctly under- !
■jtati i that every thine J hove s’ated I am prepared !
to prove as l stated it, and the slime of vampires j
can never deter me from this duty. Many ot my i

ering me can never tarnish So far from having
any disposition o iujure Mr Burnett pereonady, 1 did
not even know him. and would not knowfcim now
I did not know how long he had been on the R ad.
but I stated the facts as they occurred, and they ac
coid well with innumerable ones of a similar char
acter vhich have been cDinmmncated tj me by
tifca of the very highest character for truth. I have
ot mentioned Mr. Burnett s name in any speech— j
r* I aas only alter the system, and I have no doubt •
:de certificate wm written by someone else more i
ntere*tod in the success of Judge Brown than Mr.
Bu'ne't himself.
Ail these tacts ought to convince the people that
nt least two-thirds of that road ought to be sold, and
that the idea of waiting to alter the Constitution to
do it is a humbug, instances of the loes of thou
4of dollars are known, and ten years* experi- j
ence shows a history of leases and disgraces.
Aa long as that road remains as it now does, a
candidate for Governor is in this condition: He
must either keep silent and countenance the frauds
<>n Ue road and thus do wrong, or he must speak
ou 4 and then have h s character assailed by fatten
ing Editors and disgraced anonymous ’scriblers,
who or have been, or hope to be cormorants
on this public fund. (>ne of the persons connected
with this paper slang against me, openly boasted in
Atlai.ti that I would loose 3000 vo es up and down
the road, because of my decided petition on the sub
ject of its disposition and a very contemptible
anonymous scribler iu the Examiner of the ilHh, iu
a demagogue appeal to the ** poor mail” is boasting
rba‘ “ there is not a resurrection cf a hone of Hill”
receiving a single vote on the Stale road !
1 have deemed it my duty to declare fu !y in fa
vor of reform on this great work. If it is not so’d,
it must be cleaned out. By this portion I have in
enrred the slanders of them who feed ou the evils I
would current. My character canuot.be seriously
harmed by auch men. I scorn and defy them. I
have done aDd shall continue to <lo my duty. If the
people sustain me, well. If not, the fault is not
mine, and I shall be satisfied.
Yours, very truly, B. H. Hill.
Mr. J. L Fleming.
For the Chronicle 4* Sentinel.
ftCe&sonfl for Voting for Hill.
Allow ub space to say why we have concluded to
vote in this election for Governor, for B. 11. Hill.—
We are Democrats —a father and four sous—never
voted kuy ticket but Democratic before, but party
must yield to duty this time.
1. If our own leaders tell the truth, Mr. Buchanan
has net done as we thought he would when we voted
for him.
Ia this we arc injured.
2. Mr. Bucfi&n&n has answered eoine abolitionists
who did not g vote for Urn, and has not answered the
Southern Democrats who did vote for him.
In this wc are insulted
3. We think at least two thirds of the State Rond
ought to be Bold. Our laaders have managed it for
ten yearn, and made it only a burden. This is long
enough to try thorn.
4. Ou all these questions we do understand Mr.
Hill, fully and clearly. Ou none of them can we
understand Mr. Brown. We are not public men,
but feel we are right, and are uiiiiug our neighbors
should know our reasons.
Respectfully yours, Ate.

Mk. Editor : —These gentlemen met n vt-ry large
number of their follow-uitisena at Woodstock, on
the 16th inntant, where a splendid barbacue, pre

of two hours, and -fining his past and present political po -
sifion, and iu a succinct and plain, pr&ctii al style gave
us one of the right sort of speeches ’ Tin re was no
htfalutin .about it. The plainest language conveyed
Ids ideas to the assembled multitude in lair and liv
ing lilies, not to be mistaken by the commonest ca
pacity. Mr. Miller has ever been a sympathiser
with the American party, though never an initiated

Hoa. T. VV. .Miller at Woodstock.
Mr. Editor: — As I attended a barbecue in
j Woodstock, Oglethorpe County, on Tuteday the
; 15th instant, where I bad the pleasure of listening
! to a gpeech made by the Hon. Thomas W. Mil er.
our candidate for Congress ia the Eighth Ccngres
, tiono! District in opposition to Hon. A H. Stephens,
? and al o to a speech by the Hon. John Miiledge, I
1 have thought that a short account of the occurren- ■
: ces of the day would not be unacceptable.
Previous notice having been given sometime be
■ lore, the “Know Nothings’ (as the Democrats are
disposed tocah os) exerted themselves to render the
occasion as pleasant, agreeable and prefinable as
possible. When I arrived there, about 10 o'clock,
I found a large number oi carcases on the pit being
cooked for the assembled audience. It was well
rbat the managers had made each great prepara
tions, otherwise there would not have been, with
out a miracle, enoogh to have fed those in attend
ance Messrs. Miller and Miiledge can have no
cause to complain on account of cumber*. There
was a large crowd, composed, mostly of what the ,
I Hon. 3Z H. Clark would call the “wool bat boys;’*
aiid the occasion was graoed by a goodly number
j of Oglethorpe’s fair daughters,
i Everything having been arranged, about eleven
j o’ckxk the ringing cf the bell announced the boor
j for t*psakirg. Never having heard Mr. Millar, and
. having had him represented to me as a very com
mon man—a good nearted nice fellow, but iu every
sense unfit to go to Congress, (this account oame
from Ddflr.ocratb.) my expectations were not raised
to any thing lik*? a high point. But imagine my
agreeable surprise and disappointment on hearing
one of the most chaste, able, conclusive and un
answerabie arguments that I ever listened to. Mr.
Editor, I can say with truth that if Mr. Miller ie
j elected the Eighth Congressional district will have
no cause to be ashamed of its representative, as he
j is, in every sense of the term. Mr. Stephens’ equal;
and, iu point of principle and moral honesty far his
superior. After addressing the audience he gave a
history of hia political course from its beginning up
to tue present time. An old-line HeDry Clay Whig
until that party became defunct; a Union man in
1850, and in 1055 when new parties were formed, he
j was left alone—determining to wait and seo what
I events time would develop. He did not join any
party then, but in 1856, when Demoeiacy became
so much alarmed because of the probable success
of Fremont, and Bet up such a hue and cry
voting for Buchanan on the ground of expediency,
a<H the only man with whom Fremont could be de
feated, and as the only man who whb able or willing
to do j ustice to the South; and when so man} old
line Whigs took the bait, were caught in his sup
port, and thereby caused the South to gw almost as
one man for him, did Mr. Miller suffer himself to be
so deceived ? No. He catt his vote for that great
and good man, whom not only Whigs and Ameri
cans, but Democracy itself once delighted to honor;
and of whom the Hen. Mr. Ward, of Savannah,
once said in substance, that when the politic 1
storm of 1850 was sweeping over the land, threaten
ing to enguipb our ship of State and sink it forever,
it was his happy lot to bid tlie storm “peace, be
still,’’ and to hush its muttering thunders , and
whom Mr. A. U. Stephens, the same year, in the
city of Gntfin, lauded to the very skies, and wae
looked upou by him us the greatest living states
man . and whom, after his administration had
ended, all, with scarcely a single exception,
united in calling ‘he “Model President.’’ This
man, Millard Fillmore, was the man for whom
Mr. Miller voted, and the man that, if the
honest opinion of the people could be had free from
prejudice, all wouid pay ought to have beeu Presi
dent. Ought he not now to receive cur votes for
bis far seeing wisdom in supporting the great and
good man. and, at the same time, deteo®ng and
opposing this political Judas wbo has betrityed the
confidence reposed in him by rhose who elected
him ? who has defrauded us willfully and knowing
ly,out of our rights, and who now not only refuses
to make any reparation, but calls us “harsh and un
graoiouH, ” and compares us to those political fana
tics and higher-law rebels of the school of Garrison,
Greejy, Weed, Van Bureu, & Cos? Oughrthe not
10 be supported in preference to the man wbo, in
stead of denouncing him, still supports him, and tor
no other cause than to maintain a party, however
corrupt, whose strength shall be sufficient to ensure
its success in 1860 ? Is not the support of Mr. Ste
phens dishonest in its naturo, ana is uot the pur
poee for which it is rendered a base one ? If we
have n freesoil President, and executive interfer
ence be established, can this executive interference
act in any other way but detrimental to the South ?
I >o not all admit that for the Democratic party to
succeed, it must choose its candidate for tne presi
dency from the North ? Do not all admit, and do
not. they avow it, that the proclivities of the North
ern Deinccracy are of a freesoil nature * Now, the
President coming from the North, and at the same
time a freeaoiler, and executive intervention having
been established as a precedent, can the South ever
expect anything else but that her rights will be con
tinually trampled upon and taken from her, and
that she must flansliy bepome, what ehe in reality
is now, subsidiary to the North—a kind of province,
held in subjection by, and contriubuting to, the
welfare and prosperity of the North. Whenever
the battles of the country are to be fought the ar
mies will be officered by the North, but the rank
ami file will be from the South. Whenever there ia
a debt to be paid, the tax-gatherers will be from the
North, but tax payers will be from the South. But,
say the people, before it comes to this, we will re
aiat. No jou will not —if you will follow your lead
ers in submission now, aDd never attempt to ae
ouie your rights, nor to resist encroachments, but
for the sake of thrusting hpnor and the spoils upon
them, you will follow tßftn then, and tamely sub
mit to be trampled upGn forever fer the sake of
Democracy.
Mr. Mill r then took up Mr. Stephens. Hf showed
his past political life—its inconsistency, its iruitlesa
ness and harm to the South. He showed what the
opinions of his present friends were of him a few
years ago—-the comparison which Mr. Gardner, of
the Constitutionalist, made between him and Mr.
Dix, of New-York—which comparison was entirely
favorable to Mr. Dix, wLo was, if not an abolition
ist, one of the rankest freesoilers in the Union. He
showed Mr. S ‘a lame effort at getting out of hia
slavery notions expressed in his Tex*s speech—that
he did not mean slavery in the concrete, or negro
slavery, but that he meant slavery iu the abstract, or
wh t* slavery. And when he got on this particular
part of his subject, hjs remarks were truly telling. If
Mr. S. had been there hia faoe would surely have
h"rt him. While he was engaged in dealing Ste
phens such heavy blows, I heard a lady (I think from
Wilkes county.) aay, “I do wish he would let Stephens
alone, and talk about something else.” I guess there
were soniD Democrats of the other sex who, if
they did not say the same, thought it mighty strong.
Mr.'Miller then took up Mr. S.’s remarks last year
of “ elect Buchanan and save Kansas,” which he
had accused him of at several places, probably Au
gusta, Craw lordville, Ac., ana showed that Mr. 8.
had denied ever having said it, and then turned to
the audience and proved it, probably* by fifty men.
Mr. Miller made several other points, but ae I
took no notes, and consequently have to write from
memory, I canuot follow him in his long, close and
systematic argument. Suffice it to say, his friends,
the “Americans,” are well pleased with him, will
vote for him cheerfully, ana that all thqee of our
party who voted for Stephens, because it was Ste
phens, have determined to give Mr. Miller their un
divided support. Ido not think that I ever knew
as many changes from Democracy to Americanism,
or from one party to another, in my life. Oar coun
ty officers, members of the Legislature. &.0., are
sure to be elected, and I feol very confident that
Hill and Miller will leavo Brown aud Stephens in
the rear.
After Mr. Miller had concluded, we had & rich
treat in a speech from Col. Millcdge. It was only
about one hour in length, but one of the most elo
quent speeches of its kind that I ever listened to.
He is truly an orator iu the strictest acceptation of
the term. Richmond county should be proud of her
gifted bods, aud should leave no stone unturped,
no means untried, to ensure their triumphant elec
, tlon. If I mistake not the signs of the times, well
may Mr. Stephens beg the question, and say that
he niver abused the American party. 1 have been
informed that he said he did not expect his majority
over Mr. Miller to be more than six hundred votes.
1 advise Mr S. to look well to his interests, else he
will be found in such a small majority, if ay at all,
that it will be more a dishonor than an honor, if
elected. His remark, that he had rather stay one
day in Crawfordvifle than a hundred in Washing
ton, is decidedly in bad taste. I hope, however, he
will be gratified.
Ip conclusion, Mr Editor, permit me to say that
we had a barbecued dinner served up to us “ac
cording to Gunter.” Give us Woodstock always
for auioe thing. Berrien.

Slavery in the Abstract.
Mr. Editor:—‘ Slavery in the abstract,” as I
take it from the literal meaning of the words used,
is quite a different thing from slavery as a meta
physical abstraction. Slavery cannot ex.st without
slaves, as a political institution, and it is obvious
that slaves may be white or black, or of the Saxon
or of the African race. Now, if we oonsider slavery
as applied exclusively to the white or Saxon, or to
the black or African, we have “slavery in the ab
itract” under consideration. In like manner
“slavery in tbe concrete M cannot exist without
slaves , but if such slave 3 be exclusively Saxon, or
exclusively African, their slavery cannot be “slave
ry in the concrete” because the Saxons have been
separated or abstracted from the Africans ; there
fore “slavery in the concrete” must include the
Saxon as well as tbe African races, but a perfect
concretion would inclnde ail the races.
Mr. Stephens has much credit for subtlety as a
lawyer, and it may be presumed that he has equal
credit <br it, as his friends claim, in politics ; but it
appears to me if be has any design to mystify the
expression of bis opinion as to slavery as it exists In
this country, it would require his greatest skill to
extricate himself from tbe equivocal use of the be
fore mentioned terms. If slavery as a metaphysi
cal abstraction had been under diseuss'on, the ab
stract idea of slavery then would have been of the
slavery of the ii ind. or spiritual existence, entirely
separate from slaves either white or black. This,
however, was not the matter under discussion, but
if it had been, the terms used would indicate that
Mr. Stephens was only opposed to slavery ae a
metaphysical abstraction, but in favor of it as a
concretion of animal matter with mind or spiritual
existence.
Metaphysically, we may consider the mind or
spiritual existence separate from matter, but it is
difficult to conceive how tbe political institution of
slavery, or distinction of races, can be applicable to
it in tnat state and locking to practical political re
sults, the consideration is of ho importance what
ever, and may very properly be left to Theologista
The position of Mr. Miller as to ‘'Slavery in the
abstract,’ is the true Southern and philosophical
position. It ie hated upon the principle that the
inferior races of mankind shall be subservient to the
superior races. The African is the ‘tooef inferior
and degraded race a per the earth, it is therefore
separated or abstracted from all the other raoee by
a mark which cannot be mrataxeu, qnd the slavery
of A:ricans is truly slavery in the abstract, ae ap
proved by Mr Mi ier.
All that Mr. Stephens or any one els- mavsav
about enslaving white men is mere -clap trap.” I
do not think that any each proposition has ever
been made. In the progress ot civiliz tton and
christianii y, it may happen that the superior raoee
of the present time may become more elevated and
refined, and if the inferior races do not keep pace
with them, it is probable tha beside tbe Atncao,
other races mav be deemed fit subrsete of slavery,
and especiaily'in such oasts in which s averv, pro
perly administered, will ameliorate their condition
The approach of Aeb a condition of tcinp may be
sbw but it will be sure, tbe trade In Chinamen or
Coolies and the late movement in Franoe, indicate
that tbe days of sickly sentimentality are about
to give place to the decree of nature. If Mr.
Stephens is spared, as I trust he will be, to witneee
the triumph of the South and her --peculiar inetitn
non,” he wiil be astonished to see the facility with
which bis Northern friends will cast off their feeling
phhacthropy for the negro race, his abstractions
aud concretions wiii not retard the result however
consoling they may be to its present opponents.

states that he saw the letter referred to, and, accord ■

therein that he objected to the oath* and secrecy of |

I confession of faith of the National Dewrracy God :
| save the icaik ‘ because that platform ooe tains ar j
tides of faith which he cannot assent to, without
forswearing those principles which made him &
Whig, aud he will not deny it But when asked,
whether he is a Democrat, he gets up his usual little
olap trap, to drawt>ft* attention and throw dust in the
eyes of the people, and after letting off his cheap
thunder, be tells the crowd if so-and-so makes him
s Democrat be is a Democrat. He has always been
noted for not giving a direct answer to anything,
unless it suited his purposes, and his purposes are
significant. It is not denied that Mr. Stephens has
a cerlain ability—the ability of foroed precocity—
which was ae brilliant, a? fuliy developed, as per
fectly matured, tlie day he graduated a3 now. Smoe
his graduition he has learned more of life, of men,
of the ways of the world, but it ia doubtful whether
he can write a better speech now than then. Na
ture is usually frugal in her gifts, and what he lack
ed of genius was made up to him i a gad. Strange
ly enough, his personal appearance was his ohief ad
vantage. For when men looked at him, expecting
nothing, the little there was—made up of venom
and oommon-place—seemed almost a miracle.—
Voice, a smattering cf politics, tact, quickness, ef
frontery, unscrupulouaneM and sarcasm are all that
are necessary to sati3fy a crowd cf blind partisans,
and make a suceesful stump speaker, as the world
goes. But more than these are required to make a
great political leader—much more to make a really
able statesman. Mr. Stephens is certainly no states
man—he is merely a political expert, a jug r ler, a
quibbler, a dealer in old clothes and cheap fire
works. Perhaps partisans might say a patent gull
trap , requiring but small power to operate; and
whatever may be his personal merits, his public ser
vices to the South have proved worthless, if not
positively injurious.
Mr. Stephens commenced life as a State Rights
man, and his first Presidential vote was, doubtless,
given for Hugh L. White against Van Huron. In
1840, he was a rising man, a State Rights Whig, ad
vocating the election of Harrison and Tyler, ou the
Platform of the Bank, Protective Tariff’. Interna!
Improvements, Distribution and no veto. In 1844 we
find him a Democratic Whig, a follower of the immor
tal Harry of the West, (the father of the American
System) on the same platform as in 1840, with the
addition of hostility to the annexation of Texas—
full of the Sophomore's notion that expansion was
the ruin of old Rome, and therefore the acquisition
of t erritory was dangerous. From this time his
national services date , and we find him on the floor
of the House, with all the maudlin sentimentality of
& strong-minded woman, declaring he was no friend
of slavery in the abstract, aud that if the annexation
of Texas were for the ole purpose of extending
the area of slavery (in the concrete ?) he would not
vote for it. Texas wan annexed—he voting for it—
though he had opposed it in tlie Presidential elec
tion. aud the Mexican war eusued. A bigoted par
tisan. a Southern Whig, he bitterly opposed Polk's
administration throughout the war, opposed the ac
quisition of Territory, voted men and money to car
ry on the war of acquisition, voted that the war
was unnecessarily and unconstitutionally beguu,
and declaimed against voting the money to carry
out Trist's treaty, and pay r or the laud. In 184'“,
backed by seven Southern Whigs, and all the abo
litionists, he killed the Clayton Compromise in the
House, for which he received the severest censure
of hia present friends—the Democrats—some were
calling him a traitor to the South. The avowed
reason for defeating the Clayton Compromise wae,
that the courtt would decide against us, if left to
them, but the real purpose was to keep up the agi
tation of slavery, to give the Southern vote to God.
Taylor, on the ground that he was a Southern man
—and thus get possession ot offices. During
1848 Mr. Stephens declared he had only two plana
for compromising the aueation in relation to the
Territories; one was to divide by the Missouri line,
or one of the mountain raDges ; preferring the latter,
the other was to give the Territory back to Mexioo.
He accomplished neither. In 1850 he believed the
VVihnot Proviso constitutional, and declared that
when this Government acquired Territory “it is the
duty of Congress to govern it until the people are
prepared to be admitted os a State into the Union,
at the discretion of Congress.”
Taylor was run at tbe South as the owner of 300
niggers, and at the North as a Provisoist, opposed
to the veto, and so was elected. Various p ans
were proposed for settling our Territorial difficul
ties. The majority at the N-*rth imisted i pou the
exclusion of the South from the whole Territory by
law. The South said she would resist, but was wil
ling to divide Stephens said divide or give the
laud back. He ana Toombs, more Southern than
the South, demanded that Congress should inter
vene to repeal the Mexican laws which the South
almost unanimously contended to be repealed by
the simple extension of our jurisdiction over the
Territory. Buchanan, Walker, Casa & Cos. were
for a rew scheme, a scheme hatched to satisfy the
North, to gull the South, and effectually to exclude
us from the whole domain. That was the scheme on
which Cass ran in 1848—the scheme repudiated by
the whole South—Whigs and Democrats—the
scheme so bitterly denounced by Toombs and S‘e*
phens—the scheme for allowing the question to be
settled by the resident inhabitants, while a Terri
tory, regardless es citizenship—the scheme oi the
Kansas biil—unrestricted squatter sovereignly.—
Gen. Taylor proposed to shy tbe Wilmot Proviso.
He had already oy his agents had a Constitution
framed for the State of California, and the balance
of the Territory he intended to keep under military
rule till ready to be formed into States. As the bat
tle warmed —as t!ie contest thickened—as patriots
trembled for the Union—death claimed the bave
pld soldier, and Millard Fillmore, who, as President
of the Senate, had not beeu actively mixed up in
the c mfliot, but who was known to be favorable t
the plan, afterward* passed, became tbe President.
And so, absolute and entire restriction failed; par
tial restriction (the Missouri Compromise) failed ;
Stephens and Toombs’ soheme of Congressional in
tervention, in which they were not backed, not even
by their own immediate constituents, failed. Bu
chanan, Walker, • ’ass & Co.’s actual bona fide resi
dent inhabitant, squatter sovereignty scheme, tailed.
And while, for the sake of the Union, California was
admit ed, the South got her own original principle
of non Intervention in tho Utah and New Mexico
bills; the great principle of oit aen suffrage, aud
the right of admission into tbe Union with or with
out slavery, as the citizens might determine, when
they framed their State Constitution ; the great
Amem-on principle of this day ; aud she’got it by
and with the consent and approval of Millard Fill
more. While part of Hie Compromise were not ap
proved by any one, the people of the Lnion made
up their verdict upon the whole, and pronouuqgd it
good. The storm ceased; calm covered the deep
watera; the dove went forth from the ark , the
rainbow spanned the beaveDS, and men ol both
partios pledged themselves, one to the other, that
this should be a final settlement of tbe slavery agita
tion. Patriotseverywherefelieitated themselves that
a long vista of peace, good will and prosperity wsb
opening to their beloved country ; both political
parlies in their Presidential Conventions of 18:>2,
adopted the setriement as a finality, and, u they
went through the valley of shadows, the great hearts
of Clay, Calhoun and Webster, were consoled by
the thought that never more should theircjunty pass
through such a terrible ordeal It was thought that
the country was sick of the nigger question, and
patriots despised the reckle.-s slavery agitators.
Hut in 1853, oertain gentlemen, in view of the
Presidential election ol 185 ti, proposed the Kansas
Nebraska Bill, sndto gnll the South, re-open agita
tion, and determine the fate of the whole public do
main for the North, they proposed to repeal the
Missouri line, but along with that repeal, to bStb
lish the squattor sovereignty of Buchanan, Walker,
Case & Cos., and the odious principle of alien suf
frage The South had no Idea in the electiens of
1853, that anything of the kind was contemplated.
She had no th- ught nor oare for the repeal of the
Miesou i compromise, ami wheuth Representatives
lives told the people the Kansas simply proposed to
carry oat the principles ot 1860, tuty, without ex.
animation, accepted the bill, thinking they wore to
get only aud honestly the principle of non iDterven
tioa. But our wily Northern enemies, calling them
selves friends, knew their game well. Tua North
put alion suffrage in the Kansas bill for an express
purpose i on motion ot Mr. Clayton, it was struck
out in the Senate, by the Tote of every Southern
Senator present, without distinction of party, and
against the vote of ev* ry Northern Senator, save
one. Thus it went to the House, where Richardson
was already plying tbe House bill. Tbe Illinois
demagogues patted Stephens ou the back, told him
now was bis time to make a little popularity or no
toriety. and, ai be was always fond ot notoriety aod
intrigue, they inveigled him iolo tricking the bill
through the House, with all its squatter sovereignty
and alien suffrage, the lattor his own South had
stricken out in the .Senate by a strict Southern vote.
Ah, Nanpy, then it was they sold yon.
And then you had the effrontry to tell the South
that you, who would not vote to extend the ares ol
slavery, who voted, to debar us from more thau half
ot the Mexican acquisition, who believed tbe Wil
mot Proviso constitutional; who, oacked by all the
abolitionists, killed the Clayton Compromise, who
demanded and did not get Congressional interven
tion, bad relieved her from an odious restriction she
never asked you to remove, and had given her “a
obance at Kansas You were willing to re-open
the agitaiion, to abandon the principles of the iet
tienieut of 1860, to incorporate iu tho Kansas uill
features you knew were not in the Utah and New
Mexico bills, Northern features, odious an 1 danger
ous to tbe South You were willing to aiouse the
fanatic spirit of the North, to risk a Black Repub
lican President, to risk ibe Union, for a chance at
Kansas And what a chance I You tell pa the cli
mate, productions and population are against our
chance, and, that while Congreee has qo right to e
elude us, and that we ought to resist such exclusion.
Yet, if the Territorial Legufiuture, (the mete creature
of Congress) should exclude us, you would ratify its
acts—aud then indict upon us a wrong without a
remedy. And you are to be called a Statesman,
forsooth. You could denounce yojr old steadfast
Whig friends, who bad made you, because they hap
pened to join the Know Nothings. You could raise
your unmeaning howl about Jacobins, and conspi
raters, to draw off attention from your acts, aud
from the fast of yonr having sold out to the freeeoil
Democracy.
Yon told us the Missouri Compromise was consti
tutional—the Supreme Court has decided, ae we
always said, that it was not. You said the Courts
would not do to trust, and they have decided for us.
Yet, you are a Statesman, fore oth. And now in
your old age, tottering to the grave, alien your
thoughts ought to be upon death and judgment, you
still have confidenoe Ut him who always proved
false—
“The grave and hoary headed hypocrite,
Whe through a the of treachery and l'.ea,
Bat crept by fraud into the teats of power’
and are willing to give ap every ekarueat Kansas,

Mam mfstkh Mr isTHi ? Trade Kepokt.— Be- j
tween the ccmmtDCiaK ami tloeinjr portio sos the
month a striking contrast is afforded, the former
having been marked by continuous inactivity, and |
the latter by comparative excitement.
Daring the first fourteen days or ao a moderate I
am nntof business was donein Goods and Ya na ; |
bat after receipt of intelligence by the Overland |
Mail, which p iitically and ooa mer ialiy, was con
sidered more favorable and reae uring. an improv
ed feeling was imparted; and the consequence is,
that since that period, stimulated hytbe renewed
activity In the Liverpool cotton market, a large
business has been transacted at gradually advanc
ing rates, as will be eeon by a perusal of tne follow
ing report i
The advance upon cotton in the course of the
month will be equal to jd. |d. per lb., and Goode
and Yarns have followed nearly in proportion, more
particularly the latter, which have been token
chiefiy for Germany and Huasi i. From the former j
the advioee continue to be of the inoet favorable de
ecriptir n in a commercial character, and it is gene
rally believed that the oomeum| tion of Yarn* there
wID be much greater this autumn and winter than
has been known before. Manufactures do not
hesitate to give the advances demanded, seeing
t hat proportionate rates can be realized for the
manufactured article. Hence arises the activity in
this der>artinent ; and the extreme prices now de
manded and paid, Spinners prefer re Daintug with
out contracts, indeed, some of them decline giving
q notation* so long a* the future value of tne raw
material is involved in uncertainty. A belief pre
vails that it will still go higher; from an opinion
that before the end of the year there will be a scarci
ty in Liverpool. In support of that Impression noth
ing tangible can be offered , the conclusions arrived
at being simply conjectural In the meantime,
however, the supposition has Us effects here; we
may therefore aatcuiate upon an irregular market,
as it now n, for some time to oome, and the policy
of operators wfl! most likely r.e—a polioy which is
already developing itself— to confine their purchases
tc existing or immediately prospective wants—both
in Goods and Yams. Ip the former the market has
been less a tive : but in regard to Doth, stocks never
weie known to be so hgbt—a circumstance of
coarse attributable in some measure to the increas
ed working of short time, and to the considerable
transactions that have taken place in the country
trade, which is repreoen ed to be in a very h ealthy
and prosperous condition. For everything now the
extreme prices require to be paid.
There would, therefore, be no reason for some
time to come to apprehend any retrograde move
ment in prices, wcich in many instances are now;
nominal, but. on tbs contrary a probability that .
still higher pric -a will still be realized. Mucn. how- ,
ever, will depend upon thn coming crop of Cotton. ;
Should the prospect* be in favor of a large sup iy, |
the effect here will oertainiy be downward for
prices baring reached a hig , standard, paichasers
