The Cotton Crop.—Tne Columbus Saa of Fri
day, thus speaks of the Cotton crop in that vicini
ty : “Much of it ia dying from wbat is termed
black nut, and the whole is much disposed to shed
its fruit and forms. Much of this disaster, we think,
is attributed to the working of tbe cotton wbeD too
wet, which many had to do to eave tbeir orope from
being overran by grass, owing to the great amount
of wet weelher throughout the summer, end especial
ly during the last month.”
Extract of a letter dated Calhoun, Gordon coun
ty, August 17th :
The wheat crop of this county has been tfce
smallest, according to the breadth sown, since the
year 1849. There certainly has Dot been more
than one tbiro of a crop made. The Oat crop is
very poor, caused by the rust. Our Corn crop is
very good, though I have seen better on tbe same
land. J. M. H.

We have had rain incessantly, more or lees every

It did not ram on that day, nor has it since. The
weather bas become cooler, and apperently settled.
So much rain bas done no service to tbe cotton
crop. We onderstand the bolls are sheddiDg very

bave heard no complaint of worm or rust, and
should there be a dryer fall tbe crop may yet be
fair. The corn crop has yielded a full average.

The Crops —The lull effeots of the late M wet
term” remain to be developed; though, if there
be anything in apprehension, we are led to expect
a most disastrous tailing off in the product of oot
ton. The rams were of unusual duration and uni
versal throughout the cotton region, as shown by
our exchanges, and the complaints of planters are
doleful in the extreme. We hope, and believe,
things are Dot as unfavorable a* they are repre

magnify a shower of trouble into a storm of adver
sity. From personal observation along ‘.be coast
below this, we can testify to considerable damage i
but the crops are unusnally fine, and in tbe best
condition possible to maintain themselves against
adverse season. They have a considerable mar
gin to lose before reduction below an average yield.

From Alabama. —There were heavy rains yes
terday aftercoon, after a very warm morning and a
promise of fair weather. This will not lessen the
apprehensions in relation to the cotton crop.
[Mobile Tribune, Aug. 14.
It bas been raining every day for the last week,
and the cotton crop must be much injuied by sa
much wet weather We learn that the worms have
already begun their ravages, and the cotton is shed
ding rapidly. We greatly fear that the fine pros
pect ot the crop a week ago is destined to be sadly
changed.— Democrat, Lnmgtton, Ala., Aug. 13.
Tbe weather lor tbe last week has been very
disagreeably oppressive At times showers of rain
oame, but it doee not seem to cool the air. In fact,
it bas been generally unpleasant; should tbe raiu
continue much longer the ootton crop will be seri
ously injured. We already hear complaints being
made of too much for good.
[ Selma (Ala.) Sentinel Aug. 13.
We learn, says the Selma (Ala ) Sentinel, from
several gentlemen in our city on yesterday from the
Prairies, on the line of this county aud Pen-y, to
the effect that the heavy rains which have fallen in
that section of ci uutry for the last week, are domg
great damage to the ootton crop. Previous to
that, they were visited by a drouth of some length,
and as soon as the rains came the cotton cumin diced
to throw off its forms, which is considered by our
informants to be of euoh extent aa to cause s se
rious tailing off of tbe crop in that section of tbe
oountry. Should it continue, the crop in that sec
tion will be short of last year.
As those who have eyes have seen for themselves,
this section of the country na* been visited, of late,
with an over abundauce of rain—and so of course
a general oomplaint is eet up. Everybody is
afraid Lhht the cotton crop will be ruined, and no
body expects a full crop. When, indeed, was ever
a full crop made 7 For our part, we have no re
oolleotion of so auspicious au event. The cry is
always of a short crop. No one ever knew it to be
otherwise. In the last month, tbe prospect has
doubtless changed for the worse, on aocount of tbe
constant heavy rains, but we can hardly believe
that that there are many, if any planters in South
Alabama who will fall short of a good crop of either
cotton or corn. —Selma (Ala ) Reporter, \'Hh.
Two weeks ago we never saw a better prospect
for a large yield of cotton, but since then it has
rained almost every day, and we are informed that
tiie crop, especially in the low lands, is greatly dam
aged The laces of our planting friods are about as
long as we imagine their purses would bave been
but for the unseasonable weather. They have been
so often blessed with ffne crops that we fear they
will be soarcely able to bear the reverse with be
coming fortitude. Wishing them better lack Dext
time, we hope they will soon be cheered witb fair
weather and the genial rayß of Old Sol.

Crops. —A letter from Ruaeell county, Ala., dated
August i4th, says:
The first of August brought us tbe finest prospect
we have had in many years for a yield in both cotton
and corn. Tbe latter crop has passed the usual
casualties and is good, yet little fodder bas or will
be saved.
The reoent heavy rains, yet continuing, bave
changed the phase of our cotton crop almost en
tirely. AH the lowlands art) shedding to a great
extent, and the ravage* of the boll worm, leaves
ua little to hope for Irom that portion nearly ma
tured.
We hear, continually, the same complaints from
Barbour and the Ridge portion of Macon oounty.
Tag Weather and the Crops.— The weather
has bcooku settled again, and the earth is drying
rapidly. The tatc rains extended as high up as the
Tennessee Valley, and jye believe penetrated all
parts of this Stale. Th dtirnoge to the ootton crop
will not be fully developed, probably, for a week
or two yet, as the suu, afisrso much ciogdy and
wet weather, may affect it in various ways. Tho
corn orop has probably sustained no injury, if we
except the loss ot large quantities of fodder whiob
must have resulted from the rains coming in the
midst of the “fodder pulling” season. We think
that ha./ will sell well in this oity next winter.—

for them now. The wet weather we have had

I have traveled through the counties of Winston,
Oktibbeha, Noxubee, Monroe and Lowndes, Miss.,
and in Pickens, Ala., since June, and never eaw
better pioepects for a good cotton crop. But the
late rain* mutt inevitably ruin them. The cloudy
weather also prevents the bolls from opening aud
will cauKS a large quantity to rot. The worm is not
much spoken of, but will, no doubt, be heatd Goal
next week. The crops of ftivn are not large, but
there will be a sufficient quantity (or home use.
A letter from West Point, Lowede* pounty,
Mississippi, et’ the Ist ins., states that “the corn and
ootton crops in that and the adjoining counties are

produced before. No Bolt worms yet:”
We take the following from the Brandon Repub
lican of the 11 th :
In portions of this (Rankin) oounty, the crops
have been seriously Injured by the drouth, whilst in
otbw portions they have had fine seasons, and will
make n>o than an average crop.
We were iuiocmed a few days since, by a gentle
man residing in SUspAin county, that in many
parts of the oounty the cory crop was entirely cut
off by the drouth. He remarks* tfiat a neighbor of

yield ona bushel per acre.
From Mississippi —We regret to learn that the

We learn from car planter* that the ootton which

uiug to suffer quite seriously from rot, occasioned
by the late rams, and we regret to learn that it
is becoming quite a general thing in tbiß eecfiou of
oountry Favorable weather might have the effect
to stop it The rain* have interfered greatly, too,
with the saving of fodder, but they have caused
abuudaut crops of corn The country ought to be

the “staff ot life” as scarce and high next summer
as it has been this. —Paulding (Mu* ) Clarion.

But since then we have had almost daily showers—

Cotton never was more promising, and wkboot

ander, Esq, and Col. John W. Brinson. That
ticket suits me very well: and I beiieve it would
meet tbe approbation of a very large majority of
the voters of tbe coun’y. I want to ensure harmo
ny and peace, and give the county a good repre
sentation.
But, some hot, fire-eating Democrat, has come
out in the Augusta Constitutionalist of the ICtb,
appealing to the State Rights Democrats, (what
does he mean by that 7) to repudiate the compro
mise proposition. I told you beforehand that there
were some small potats politicians among the
Democrats, who wished to be leaders, and who
would not be noticed but for their eternal bawling
and agitat ion. “ Farmer ’is not one of these kind,
I hope. But I do not think he manifests a very
libera! spirit—neither is his tone of a very pacific
nature.
He takes occasion to apeak of the Know Nothing
petty. I presume he thinks the term unpopular.
That is demagoguism. I know of do such party
now, and neither does he. I shall not speak of him
as of a party that has no existence, nor follow his ex
ample in fiyiDg off at a tangent, and attacking mes
unnecessarily. There was no necessity for his
abusing Col. Wright and Ben Hill.
I have but a few words to say in the matter—l
meant well for the county; but from the tone axil
style of “ Farmer,” I think he cares more for his
parly than the well-being of the community—l am
not that sort of a man. His language is over
bearing and dictatorial. The old Whigs of the
county were not went to bear such ; and if they
submit to it now, I fear Democracy has had a bad
influence upon them—a slavish influence. Taeee
modern Douglas Democrats are used to being
whipped into harness when a little refractory; but
old Whigs never would submit to that. What 7
my countrymen ! not vote as you desire moet 7 Are
you gentlemen—freemen—and dare not do it 7
Are you afraid to vote a Compromise Ticket, for
tbe sake of peace, because this ranting “ Farmer”
gays “no!” Are you slaves to equals? Are you
afraid of being brow beaten 7 Is the Democratic
party such a despotism that you fear it 7 That you
dare not disobey the behests of its arrogant leaders 7
Tyrants. I might say. In God’s name, I hope not.
And why dots this dictatorial geDtleman tell you
not to vote a Compromise Ticket 7 Because, for
sooth, tte county might go for Col. Wright! Oh,
dear!
People of Jefferson ! men long tried and never
found wantmg! Will it disgrace you for Col
Wright to get this county 7 If so, don’t vote for
him. If it will disgrace you to vote fur Messrs.
Alexander Sc. Brinson, don't do it. But can tbe
Democracy offer better men 7 I leave “ Farmer”
to answer.
This writer, who would arrogate to himself the
right to control your votes, wishes to bang them up
for whom ? Mr. John Jenks Jones! the second
choice of the Douglas Demo -.racy ! What princi
ples do these men hold in common with the old
Whigs 7 Not a single one* Does any body pre
tend to say that Mr Jones is equal in ability with
Col. Wright? No—not a single soul. Can you
feel yourselves honored in voting for such a man as
Mr. Jones, after having such men as Toombs and
Stephens to represent you 7 I should think not.
If the Democracy want your support, let them give
you men worthy ot it. Col. Wright ia a man ac
knowledged on ali sides to have low superiors. Mr.
Stephens himself has spoken in the highest terms of
his abilities. And we know him to be a fearless,
daring and uncompromising man of principle; able
and willing to confront the enemies of the South at
any time and any place He was born and raised
among us, and we kuow him well. He is an honor,
not only to the county, but the State. We should
do injustice to ourselves not to vote for him, not
only as a man woitby of our support, but as a
countryman and friend.
But the conclusion of “ Farmer” Is altogether
gratuitous, that my proposition aims at uniting the
county on Col. Wright. I said nothing of the sort,
though I admit that such a thing would be gratify
ing to my feelings. But I want the people of my
oouuty to be on better terms with each other. I
want to see the good old feelings return ; and I
know of no means better calcu ated to bring this
about, than what I have suggested.
Fellow-citizens, I therefore renew the suggestion,
and hope that ali quiet, peace-leaving, moderate
men will advocate it. Pacieicator.
P.B. “ Farmer” need not trouble himself about
whether my name is on any of tLe tickets or not. I
know his ia there. p.

Col. Wright’s Speech—“ Jefferson” Exposed.
Mr. Editor: — l sincerely regret the necessity
that compels me to solicit a place iu your columns
for this communication. But having seen in the
ConnUtutivnalist of the 7th inet. a communication
over the signature of “Jefferson,” which pretends
to give “an idea” of what Col. Wright said in his
address, delivered at this place, ori the 2d instant,
but which has so incorrectly reported him, so wil
fully misstated what he said, and so falsely repre
sented his positions, that I deem it a duty, alike to
Col. Wright and the publio, to give a true and cor
rect statement of hU positions, and what he said on
the oocasion ; to set “ Jefferson ” right in this mat
ter, and hold him up In his proper light before the
publio.
In reporting what Col. Wright said about the
Kansas-Nebraska bill, and in giving his positions
in reference to that measure, Jefferson says : “He
denounced it as a cheat and swindle perpetrated
on the South; that although Hunter, aud Davis,
and Clingman, and Toombs, and our own distin
guished Representative, had been cheated, he had
pot. lie Lad the sagacity to see it from the first,”
4xo.
Now from this report of Col. Wright’s position
on tbe Kansas-Nebraska bill, tbe inference intend
ed to be conveyed, and tbe natural and legitimate
one, is, that he unqualifiedly, unequivocally, and
uoexceptionally, denounced the Kansas-Nebraska
bill as a cheat, and swindle perpetrated on the South:
and that, although Hunter aud Davis, Clingman and
Toombs aud Stephens, did not have sense enough to
sue it, bgt were so simple as to allow themselves and
the South to be swindled and cheated, he had the
far seeing sagacity to see it from the first.
I am surprised to know that “Jefferson” is so
simple or so credulous, as to think that anybody
would be deceived by his report, or would believe
that a man of Col. Wright's position and intelli
gence, would take any such positions or avow any
such 4ieptin)entß. Every one who heard the speech
or has read the report, knpwa it is incorrect and false;
that it is not only a wrong and erroneous inference
stem wbat Col. Wright said, but a misstatement.
Col. Wright said, that under the construction that
Douglas and the Northern supporters cf the Kareas
and Nebraska bill gave it, and the proper onp to
be given it, the South had been cheated and swin
dled. He had thought from the very first, ar.d so
told the people all over the State, that beneath the
deceptive garb of non-intervention, and the repea’
of the Missouri Gomprotpiae, yrere contained the
doctrines of squatter sovereignty arid alien suffrage,
that are as dangerous to the South as the
Proviso; and if oarried into effect in the territories,
would as effectually exclude and drive out slavery
from them. That Douglas, and all the North, now
said find contended that it did contain those duo
trines, and ,t,V* South, while deluded with non
intervention and tn.o repeal of the Missouri Com
promise, bad allowed them to be established and
incorporated in the legislation and government sf
the temiut ies. Doctrines, he said, that accomplish
ed every thing tpat yan Buren asked, and every
thing that Seward and his followers could wish or
desire. He agreed with Mr.Fillmore, Jehen he said
it was the Pandora’s box from which emanated all
the evils that had overspread the country. Its in
troduction and passage iu Congress, and its practi
cal and legitimate working in E&nsas, bad opened
anew aud caused to bleed afresh, thu old wound
of slavery agitation—had aroused higher and y'.ore
furious than ever tbe eiyitement on this question—
arrayed the jN° rt b and South in deadly hostility
against each other, and tor aught he knew, might
yet lead to a disruption of the pnion. He said,
how humiliating to the {south was the speetade,
when just before tbe close of the last semion of
Congress, in tbe Senate, Clingman, iluotpr and
Mason, Davis and Green, the great leaders of the
South, told Mr. Douglas, they did not desire to cheat
( no.” be cheated, but if they had knov:n that mas his
consiTfpi.Lian of the Kansas-biebraska bill they
Kould not hate eu portal it. He denounced the
unfriendly legislation doctrine of Mr. Douglas, and
said he stood upon the jjred fecotl decision ; that the
Supreme Court,the highest Judicial tiibo.t.l known
to the land, had decided that Congress had no pow
er to prohibit, or establish slavery in the territories,
they were the common property of all the people,
and the 6oiMue.u man had just as much right to
carry his property to them, as the Northern man,
and it was just as much the (L-iy of fjoveixmeot to
protect the one, as the other in the use aud enjoy
ment of his property in them That if by the un
friendly legislation system of Mr. Douglas, the
Southern u-uc was excluded and driven out from
the territories. Re *u In favor of Congress inter
vening to protect him
This i* what Col. Wright said aov-t ‘he Kansas
question ; these are his positions in reference Sj the
Kanes. Nebraska bill, and evety calm, unprejudi
ced and reneoti-g man, that will examine the facts
of the oaee. and review the history of this question,
will admit that these views 6i Col Wright are
correct, that bis positions are right. *.nd >t is a
consciousness of their truth, an apprehension about
their effect throughout the oountry, and an over
wheaniny: sense of his inability to deny or refute
them, that hauuaased “Jefferson” to publieh his
incorrect and garbled report.
“Jefferson” in his commuaicction farther says,
that “he (Col. Wright,) said he was giemg to stand
by Mr. Buchanan's administration when it was
right, *-id oppose it when it was wrong. He was
opposed to *vu Pacific Railroad, because there was
not wood and wai% gsough on the line to run the
engine—aud yvith a tremendous Nourish et trumpets
said, he was opposed to taking the paoyles money
to educate wild Africans, and to prove it rea* from
Mr. Cobb's letter as follows, ‘I repeat wbat I stated
to you before, j§rc.’ He then quoted from the .
President's message to Congress at its last session
as follows: ’under whioe tie society engaged,
{to :’ and although he (Col. Wright, held in his
hand the whole of Mr. Cobb's letter, and weii knew
ail it* aegtents, he did not read the whole of the
letter nor so muiC as the following part of the same,”
due.
If this is a oorrect and trueepert of Col. n nght s
speech, the inference to be drawn from it, is, that
be i* not opposed to the building of the pacific
Railroad, because he believes it would be a pro
fitless. wasteful aud .useless expenditure of the pub
lio money, but becau* there is “not wood and
water enough along the line the lo rin the engine.”
We would iso infer, and “Jefferson unquestiona
bly so intended, that Col. Wright charged Mr.
Buchanan wifk tajping forty-five thousand dollars
of the peoples mousy Ip pducats wild Africans, and
in endeavoring to substantiate the charge, garb.ed
the facts, hid the truth, and deceive-; the people.
That he read only a small portion cf Mr. Cobb s
letter, and would read no more, but then read Bail
the President’s message to Csngress. This inference
is false, maliciens and untrue ; and no one who
heard the speech would have en.savored to make
any such impression, only those, whose souls are so
withered and blasted by party fetters and political
prejudice, that they could not understand, compre
hend nor appreciate the truth, when against them. It
is true, that Col. Wright did make the charge of Mr.
Buchanan taking forty fi Te thousand dollars of the
people a money to educate wild Africans, and he
proved rt conclusively to the mind of every unpre
judiced man who heard him. H* did not read the
whole of Mr. Cobb s letter, because it was a lengthy
document, and would have been unnecessary But
he did read that portion of the letter, whee Mr.
Cobb openly denies the charge, and then read
another portion of the same letter, where Mr Cobb
plainly, explicitly, and in the moet unmistakable lan
guage admits and says, that for the consideration
of forty-five thousand do bare, the society engaged
to support, school and educate the Africans for
CoL^Vright said that he opposed the election of
Mr. Buchanan to the Presidency, because he had
always looked on him ae a trimming and time serv
ing politician, and a* a man whose want of stability
and firmness of character and whose varying political
antecedent*, rendered him unfit and unsafe to be
entrusted with power. That he was once a back
mao, and theo an anti-hank man—once a tarff
man and then ar anti-tariff man Tuat he appointed
svaiker Governor of Kansas, and gave him cer
tain instructions to carry cut; Walker carried them
out to the letter, and when they outraged aud in
su'ted the South he begged him to resign. That he
waa elected to the Presidency by a party that are
rppoeed to internal improvements being carried on
- th® Federal Government, and yet he advocates
the building of the Pacific Railroad, which, if nn
dertaken. would be an unwarrantable aud useless
expenditure of the public money, and an imprac’i
cable and profitlese enterprise, lie oppose i the ad
ministration of Mr. Buchanan f-r its miserable and
bungling Cuban policy, and also, for his taking,
wi.hout the warrant of law, or authority, forty five
thousand dollars of the people's money “tor the sup
port and education of wild Africans. He here
qtoied from Mr. Cobb's letter to Mr. Jackson,
where be says, “I repeat what I s'ated to you be
fore, that not one dollar was paid fur the education
or schooling of the Africans sent back to Africa.”
And he then again read from Mr Cobb's letter as
follows : “Under these circumstances an argument
as entered into t-Uh the Colonization Society on
the 7 th of September last, a ropy of which is here
with transmitted, under tchich the Society engaged,
for the consideration of forty-five thousand dollars,
to receive these Africans in Liberia, from the agent
of the United States, and furnish them during the
pmod of one year thereafter , with comfortable
shelter, clothing, provisions and medical attendance,
causing the children to receive schooling: and all,
whether children or adults, to be instructed m the
arts of civilized life suitable to their condition” He
said Mr Cobb in one portion of his letter deal.*
the charge, and in another admits and says it is true,
lie asked the people if Ihey were willing for Mr.
Buchanan to eet up a boarding school in Liberia for
wild Africane. He was opposed to it, aud was in
favor of educating them after Mr. Lamar's plan, to
teach them to bos cotton and plough corn.
This is what Col. Wright said about the Paci6c
railroad, Mr. Buchanan and his conduct, his Ad
ministration ar-d its policy ; these are his positions,
the truth and correctness of which none can deny
or gainsay. And yet “Jefferson,” iu his efforts to
ebield Mr. Buchanan and his administration from
that tost censure and odium which it deserves, and
will receive from the American people for violating
the law, and tianscenaiug hie duty, in squandering
the public money for the support and eaueat on of
wild Africans in Liberia, and iu endeavoring to
avert that just retribution which will yet be brought*
on the Democratic party for sustaining Mr. Bu
ehanan in such conduct and policy, garbles Col.
Wright s speech, and endeavors to hold him up to
the public gaze as a garbier of facts, a cmcealer of
truths, aud a deceiver of the people. I forbear any
comment on such a coarse, and will leave it to a
just, generous and discerning public to decide, w ho
has been the garbier ot facts and the surpresser of
truths in this matter, Col. Wright or “Jefferson.”
In his communication “Jefferson” farther says :
“The Colonel then said that he approved Mr. Bu
chanan's nob'e and patriotic bearing towards the
South ; said that there was now but one party at
the South, and it made but one issue ; deprecated
aDy split or schisms that might be in it—but hoped
that they would piesent one undivided and unbro
ken front, that would roll back the mighty tide of
fanaticism which was gathering 8t the North—said
be was like Ezekiel of oia ; felt that no arm of flesh
could gather and unite the dry bones of the Demo
cratic party that lay bleaching in the valley
he hoped, however, that some mighty power would
collect aud unite them wiih muscle. * * * Says
he is no party man, but will go with any sect, party
or even ism, that is in for him. Suffice it to eay,
that he either thought he was addressing a very
ignorant eet, or he was so himself.” ”
This portion of the report ia more incorrect than
any of the rest. It is false and incorrect from be
ginning to end, garbled and misstated clear through,
and to every one who heard the speech, and has
read this report, one of three things is clearly and
evidently apparent; either that Jefferson did not
hear the epeech himself, has reported it incorrec’ly,
or did not have sense enough to understand or eoin
ptebend it. Who, for a moment, believes that Col,
Wright would be so inconsistent as to denounce Mr.
Buchanan for h:a Cuban policy, for his injustice aud
treachery towards the South, ia not recalling Walk
®r, or giving his reasons for keeping him in Kansas;
for his transcending his power in squandering ihe
people’s money for the education aud support ot wild
Alricans iu Liberia, and then commend and approve
in general terms, “his noble and patriotic bearing
towards tbe South.” Who believes that Col. Wright
is a man of such unblushing effrontery as to get up
before an intelligent auditory in Jefferson county,
aud eay that there is now but one political party at
the South, and that he is “in tor ituy sect, party or
even ism that ia iu for him 7” Who believes tua!
be is a man of eo little discretion or policy as to
say “he wa3 like Ezekiel of old ; felt that no arm ot
flesh could gather and unite the dry bones of the
Democratic party that lay ble-’ chiug in the valley ;
he hoped, however, that some mighty power would
collect and unite them with muscle I” vVhy nobodv
believes it, not even “Jefferson” himsslf—and I have
no doubt but that “Jefferson” now wonders how it
was that he ever wrote and published so improbable
and incredible a tale.
Col. right said, that while he condemned and
denounced Mr. Buchanan for his Cuban p licy, for
his policy in reference to Walker in Kansas, and
for his taking, without warrant of law or authority,
forty-five thousand dollars of the people's money to
educate wild Africans, yet there was one isolated
but bright spot in bia administration that he did ad
mire aud approve—that was his position on the Le
comptou Cotßtitution. Mr. Buchanan took high
aud strong Southern ground on that question, aid
stood nobly and heroically up to the South iuthat
issue ; ana yet, he was deserted and abandoned at
that important and trying crisis by the Repreeenta.
fives ot the _ South, who threw Lecompton over
board; sactdiced the South, and passed the English
bill, and torced upon the Soulh that disgraceful
compromise of her rights to save the Democratic
patty. He was the candidate of no party, he was
nominated by no party. The Opposition party that
met in Augusta a short while ago, recommended
him to the people of the Eighth Congressional Dis
trict as an independent candidate lor Congress.
They laid down no platform for him to run on; but
if the people liked his principles and aj: proven his
position, they could give him their support; it they
did not, they could support his competitor. That
if the people should see proper to send him to
Congress as their Representative, he Bhould go
there to serve them, unbound by party trammels
or fetters. He should plant himself upon the
Dread Scott decision, should support Mr. Bu
chanan’s administration whep it was right, and
oppose it when it was wrong. That in Congress he
should act with all parties, that maintained the
rights ot the South, and would oppose all oarties,
that opposed and compromised the rights and inter
ests ot the South, lie said that disorganization
everywhere prevailed in the ranks of the Demo
ciatic party; but perhaps they expected Jeoks
Jones to raljy and unite them, in this distriot. He
said Ezekiel was once shown a valley covered with
dry bones, and was told to command them to rise,
to be united with flesh, muscle and sinews, and to
walk. Perhaps the Democracy ot this district ex
pected Jenks Jones to be their Ezekiel; to raiiy
and bring together and unite the dry bones of tbe
Democratic party, that lay bleeohing in the valleys,
lie said there ought not to be but one party at the
South; that the question of slavery was the only
one now, of vital importance to us, and on it we all
agree—on it we were all a unit. Then ssid he, let
party differences, disputes aud asperities, be forgot
ten at the South—let them be buried forever in
oblivion let them be banished forever from
amongst us. Iyet us no longer submit to eompro
mise—.let Its tqke strong, but Constitutional ground
on the subject ofs.avary, and pever yield nor sur
render, but present one undivided and unbroken
front to tbe North, and we would soon roll back that
mighty tide of abolition fanatioism that threatened
to spread over our country, and overwhelm us for
ever beneath ite waves.
This, Mr. Editor, is what Col. Wright said in his
speech at Louisville on the 2d of August; these are
his yiews as expressed, and positions as avowed on
that occasion. And they have raised him far
higher, ip that already high position, that he has
always occupied ;n the eatimati in apd regard of his
fellow citizens at home, AnJ how unjust aot* un
generous if was, in the authcr of this communica
tion, over tbe signature of “Jefferson,” instead of
giving Col. Wright tfcqt well deserved, and merited
meed of commendation and approval, which his
statesmanlike views and patriotic sentiments,
every where elioitsd from honest and unprejudiced
minds, to let partyism and prejudice iuuuce him to
publish a garbled and an incorrect account of the
address to endeavor for party purposes and nefa
rious aims, to hold Col. Wright up to the public
gaze, as a garbier of facts, a suppressor of truth, and
a deceiver of the people. He hqs deceived nobody,
and done no harm. Airi all I have to is that
it is a good indication of Col. Wright’s euccess
Then let “Jefferson,” and ail his kindred go on—let
them garble, miss ate, and misconstrue—let them
nurse their wrath and vent their sple6n; but I feel
assured that if constitutional positions, statesman
like views and sentiments, honesty of purpose, and
devoted patriotism, ever meet their reward or find
an approval, thp pert session of Congress will find
Col. VVright, our able, gallant, and valiant Repre
sentative, battling for Southern rights, and exposing
in thunder tones, the corruption that prevails in the
administration of our government.

Col. Wright at Crawferdvlll*.
Mr. Editor— pear Sir: It was my good for
tune to hear the speech of Cos!, A. R. Wright, at
L’rawlordville, the home of Hon. A. H. Stephens, on
y/ednesday. Early in the morning the people began
to contain f?oip tip country, and by half-past ten
a crowd of seveial hundred persons had collected.
The impression had been made that Col. Wright
would not speak, and as he was detained by the
heavy roads from reaching the village until half
past eleven, many persons had returned to their
homes. When he arrived. Geo. F. Lewis, Esq, of
Spans, wpa speaking. He is a young man of fine
ability, and entertained thx wLwd critfc g -eyere re
view of tbe administration of Mr. Bucbanan, which
was to give peacs to the country, and preserve the
rights of the South.
4bo>’t twelve o’clock, Col. Wright entered the
stand, ana wa. welcomed with rounds of applause
that made the oid Court House tivrable. Tfce
Court Room was literally jammed, and anxious
crowds peered through the stairway, and hung
about the steps, to hear the standard bearer of the
“ Old Eiguui,” trb.” is to succeed tbeir beloved
fellow citizen in Congress.
Col. Wright briefly reviewed the oid party or
ganizations up to 1840, when the people rose iu the
majeety of their strength, and hurled the base aDd
corrupt administration of Van Buren from power.
He continued the parallel up to the present time,
when the people are suffering under the misrule
and extravagance of a government costing twice as
much a-.m-ally as was expended under Van Buren,
who was indignantly repudiated for his extravs
g&nce. He compared tne wniau plad^® B °f A
Buchanan to administer the affairs of the govern
ment economically with the ntter profligacy that
had cbe'j'cterized his term of office, and showed
from the bankrupt sfote of the treasury and tbe
crippled condition of the man service, flow it was
being visited upon the people. He enumerated
mail route* that bad been cut off entirely, and
namta county towns to which the mails are carried
by private Bnbecnpuen, ;'hile the postage goes
into the hands of the profligate plunderers of the
treasury.
He reviewed the slavery agitation, and weighed
the value o> Uje Kansas and Nebraska bill. • He
showed wherein the principle of non-interveDtion
had been established when governments were given
to Utah and New Mexico, and ilinstrated the con
cealed freeeoil power which that measure gave to
the North, as claimed by Mr. Douglas and the
Northern supporters of the bin. pe reviewed the
position he had occupied in lSofi, when ae had
denounced the squatter sovereignty doctrines of
Stephen Arnold Douglas, and gave the recently
avowed Let oo of •‘unfriendly legislation” as
another deceptive and dangerous feature of the
measure, whose advantage to the South he had been
denounced for doubting. He bailed the doctrine
laid down in the Dred Scott decieion as embodying
the true Constitutional position for the South. It
was a direct and plain confirmation of the position
assumed by those who had denounced Douglas and
squatter sovereignty in 1856 Under it the South
ern man could go with hie slaves, and the Northern
man with his beast, into the territories, and if one
attempted to interfere” with the other, it was the
duty of Congress alike to protect them both. This
seems reasonable and just, and he could not believe
that the South would sanction the Douglas inter
pretation of the Kansas bill, which allowed the
Northern Betlierto exclude her sons by “unfriendly
legislation.'’ He thought if the South would stand
firmly upon the reasonable claim of protection
against such unfair and ruinous discrimination, that
all would be well.
Mr. Wright then continued his review of the Ad
ministration of Mr. Buchanan—condemned his
Pacific railroad polioy as dangerous and anti-
Democratic— qenounoed the appropriation to
“board, clothe and school” the Echo Africans at
$l5O a bead, and called upon the people to cut
lone* from the shackles of party wtich bind them
to an administration so powerless ’o protect Their
rights. --0 extravagant, and fa’thless to its pledges.
In this brief notice I cannot touch ali toe ocinte
iu tbe masterly and eloquent effort of Col. Wright.
It was one of tbe finest speeches be has ever made,
and was received with the mos‘ gratifying evi
dences of approval. I have heard many l iteliigent
Democrats declare that in this ra e they are for
Wright, and hereafter they are against those who
are for Douglas and Bucbanan.
Tarough this portion of tfce District there is no
enthusiasm for tbe rotten and corrupt dynasty of
Democracy, she people are disgu->ted with tbe
’ onambered sins upon its hoary head,” audit
wii! not surprise we to see them visit upon it next
October a storm of indignation which shall redeem
the country from its foul domination. So mote it
be. Saw Dust.

Lexington, Auius: 19, 1859.
Mr. Editor Col. Wright, in accordance with
his appiintments, addressed a very good crowd of
his fellow-citizens here to-day. His effort was a
very happy one, I think—calm, argnmentive ar.d
dispassionate—he appealed to the reason of his
audience, and in that, I think, happily disappointed
many who heard him to day. Tnere was noeffort to
raise a grin, although bis humor would, iu spite of
himself, occasionally come out and piodaee a hearty
laugh. Id o not think it necessary to seed you a
sketch of his speech, for the main points of it have
already been laid before your readers in h ! s letter
of acceptance ; and I refer thorn to that solid docu
ment and his speech in your city.
I will only add, that from the interest exhibited
by the crowd and respectful attention given Col.
Wright, with perbaps two or three exceptions,
where a running, undertoned, and r.o doubt sense
lets commentary was made upon the various parts
of tbe speech, especially on the Kansas swindle,
lam of the opinion he made some friends here,
even among the eo called Democracy. At any ra’e,
when he called upon any gentleman present to ask
him questions, or point out any error he had made
in his statements, no response came ; and it is to
be presumed ihat th statement of his premises and

speech at Gibson, Glasscock county, on Monday
last, from the Dispatch :
Gibson, Aug. 15th, 1859.
Col. Wright addressed the voters of Glasscock,
during the recess of Court to day. More than half
of the voters of the county, and a large number
from Warren, Columbia and Jefferson, were here,
and he was listened to very attentively. He made
a calm, dispassionate, and dignified speech, which
evidently made a strong impression, and it is the
opinion of those who are well acquainted with the
people, that he will get a large vote in G!a3scock.
lie reviewed the record of Mr. BuuhaLan, in
which he showed that his charges against him in
1856 had oeeu verified—he showed that Mr. Bu
caanan violated several of the most important prin
ciples on which he had been elected The Presi
dent had avowed himself in favor of a Pacific
Railroad, across tbe immense deseris and iofiy
mountains of the Wes', where the Government
would not ouiy incur the expense of building the
road, but would tor years have to keep it up from
the public treasury. The speaker was very happy
in his illustration of the way in which, through the
revenues, support of euob a work would fall upon
the people.
He reviewed the expenses of the Government,
and the feeble and unfair management of the postal
service, tor which the administration was direotly
responsible. He illustrated this position in the
niggardly course pursued toward the localities
having weekly mails while the service was con
tinued ou the larger hues of the travel the same as
formerly. He uarnsd several routes involving SSO
tc SIOO which had been discontinued, at the great
inconvenience of whole districts. He might have
added the route to this place, which is kept up by
private subscription. Is it not a pitiful state of
affairs, when with an annual expenditure of $30,-
000,000, the people have to pay postage ou letters
and then deliver them at private expense! The
failure of Congress to past any postal appropriation
bill—save S7OO 000 for seudtng public documents
and other free matter—will be visited with indig
nation upon those responsible for the outrage.—
Such failure, however, affords no good excuse for
the present discrimination against the weekly mails.
If expense must be curtailed it should bo done uni
formly, and not cut off mail matter entirely to save
a pitiful sum, while the same facilities are extended
to the main lines.
He was very happy on the African appropriation
b 11, and on theS3U,(KIO,OUU asked lor by Mr. Buch
anan for the purchase of Cuba. He showed up the
hollowness of ills alleged settlement of our territo
rial difficulties, on the pretended basis of non-inter
vention, when it does uot protect us from the latal
dangers of unfriendly legislation
He showed wherein the position assumed in the
Georgia Platform had been violated, in the refusal
to admit Kansas under the Lecompton Constitu
tion, and adopt the course of Mr. Buehauan in that
measure. Tbe bill had been sacrificed aud our
rights outraged to appease certain leaders, and to
preserve the powers of party organization.
He argued from these—the leading features of
the Administration of Mr. Buchanan—the emptiness
of party issues, aud the danger of relying upon
parties and party leadeis for tbe protection of our
rights.
After a clear and masterly analysis of these ques
tions, Mr. Wright invited any who wish to hear h s
views on other points, to question him freely, as lie
desired no concealments, and was here to give
them a fair and courteous statement of his princi
ples.
No questions were propounded, and he announced
that he expected to addrees the people of Glaes
ccok again, before the close of the canvass, in con
nection with 3lr. Jones, and took his seat amid
deafening cheers.
It is well known that all but ten or twelve voters
in Glasscock are Democrats; and it is gratifying to
observe that they recognize in Mr. Wright the
same fearless champion of Southern Rights that he
was in connection with that party in 1851.
The people begin to see the emptiness of mere
party professions. They are weary of the strife
and agitation of party conflicis, and want harmony
and security. They have sought in vain for it iu
those deceitful exponents of popular sentiment—
party platforms—false lights, that have time and
again lured us, under the delusive promise of se
curity, on to the very breakers ot anarchy ; and are
more than ever convinced that our safety rests upon
severing party allegiance, and placing officers at
the helm who will have the nerve and ability to
meet the storm that threatens to break upon us
The people are disgusted wiih Delphic politicians,
who can talk so as to be understood one way in
Maine, and quite another in Georgia ; and have
lost all patience with fine spun theories and gold
beating abstractions which look very pretty, bat
are dangerous and delusive. They want straight
forward, common sense, earnest, honest, and fear
less men in the national councils. In the, Eighth
{district they will elect a worthy suocessor to Mr.
Stephens—in tbe form of A. R. Wright.
Yours, A.
Pass Him Round.
Editor Savannah Republican :
Some sccuudrel calling himself Alexander, alias
Sandy, alias Daniel, alias John Daniel Graham,
and representing himself formerly from Fayette,
ville, N. C., and late of Florida, is now passing
through this Sfate. He has been passing quite a
number of bills of various sizes on the (broken)
bank of Macon, and swindling generally. He came
to this place two or three weeks ago, and described
himself as being immensely rich, and would select
biß chances to show large wads of the above nam
ed bills, but would take care not to let any one see
the name of the bank. Alter ha had been here a
few days he boasted extensively on his wealth, and
.reported round town that he had deposited bis
money with the landlord; under these pretences he
borrowed me ney from several persons, and would
justify himself by saying that his money was all in
large bills, tha l he merely wanted a little change.
He also bought about sixty dollars worth of goods
upon the strength of having his money deposited
here; and so soon as a favorable opportunity pra
sented itself, he left. The next day we eta ted
after him; and overhauled him in Merriwether ooun
ty, arrested him under a charge of “cheating and
swindling by misrepresenting bis own wealth.” He
was brought back, tried, convicted, and sent to
jail.
Last Saturday, two miles east of Zebulon in this
(Pike) oounty, he made bis escape. Rumor says
his father lives in Newton county, that he has a wife
and children in North Carolina, was lately married
in Russell oounty, Ala , also in Tennessee, and in
Macon county, in this State ; that there is now a
warrant for him issued in Macoa county for bigamy,
and one hundred dollars reward is offered there for
him. Ho bgd po money cf any flind when he left;
$1,369 of the aforementioned bills yere taken from
him. He is very illiterate and exceedingly fond of
negroes’ company, about six feet tall weighs about
one hundred and eighty pounds, walks a iittle
pigeon-toed and very awkwardly ; invariably tells
a lie, when the troth is most convenient; had on
when he left a low orown broad brim, tolerably
well worn bat, a black drap ij’ete coat, satin
vest, black cloth or cassimpr paiit;, and a pair
of heavy square toed boots, Ho. 10’a, which
he generally ‘makes use of when traveling. Ue is
apparently about forty five years of age, red face,
and quite ordinary in general appearance. It, is
hoped that the Press will hand him round, in order
that tbe public may not be further swindled, and
the rascal be brought to justice. C. R. P.
Barnesvilie, Aug. 16ih, 1859.
The Goodwood Races—TßtCfiFHOi the AiiEßi.
rican Horse.—The London Times, speaking of
the Goodwood races, ip which the American horse
Stark was the winner, says :
Mr. Ten Broeck brought from America a stud of
half a dozen horses. Prioress, in 6 r second year
in Jfpglaafl, after running in eqch a manner tp to
make ail people believe inai ri/s wouif not be able
to win a saddle and bridle a! Barnet Fair, oarried
off our principal handicap, and nearly repeated her
achievement a second year in succession. Now we
have to record the victory of another American im
portation Stark, who until to-day had never
Shown racing ability worthy of consideration, but
who cbmss and upsets —a uafouiaucus of our
shrewdest turf tacticians, by winning a race which
the owners of Englieb norses have for months been
planning and scheming to obtain. Mr. Ten Broeck
made no secret of the confidence which he placed
in his horse, and scarcely a man in tbe ring “missed
laying,” and tfce success, although attained by an
“ outsider,” did not give the bboauifikcis a id,ti.
It appears that tbe belting was 100 to 6 against
Starke. A large number of Americans witnessed
the race, in which seventeen horses participated.
Thg following is a report of the race .-
Goodwood Stakes, or fib sov. ea u h, 5 Iff, and 5
only if declared, Ac. Winners extra, the second
to receive 100 so vs. out of the Btakes. Two miles
and a half; 08 subs. 53 of whom declared.
The horses got away on the first attempt, Wood
burc, who was started to make running for Starke,
going on with the lead, followed by Tocher, Me
lissa, Queen Bess, Heiress. andCon.pomise, nearly
in the order named, and pretty well laid np ; Queens
town and Gouvieux whipping in. They passed the
stand without material alteration ; but, ou nearing
the turnout of the straight, Woodburn increased his
lead, and in pursuit of him at clear intervale, were
Tocher, Mellissa, Ethiopian, and Heiress. about six
lengths behind them came Gaepard, with"Biae Jack
et, Terndale and Compromise at hie heeis, Queens
town and Gouvieux being still last After rounding
the clamp, Melissa drew into the third place, and
the lot were in pretty close order soon after coming
into sight, wnn the ‘exception of Queenstown and
Gouvieux, who were now hopelessly beaten. As
they ascended the hill, Melissa took up the running,
followed by Tocher, Starke, and Heireas ; Lifeboat,
who had been lying off in the ruck, now joined the
leading horses. After making the last torn, and in
coming down the hiii, Mehssa s log gave way, and
she dropped into the rear, leaving Blue Jacket with
the lead, Starke second, in close attendance upon
him; Lifeboat, Heiress, and Gaepard next. At
the distance Starke took up tee running, and Life
boat passed Blue Jacket at the ineiosure, chaileng
ed “the American.” but failed to get up, and was,
after a fine race, beaten by half a length. Blue
Jacket being six lengths from the second; Heiress
was fourth, beaten off; Compromise was fifth, and
Gaepard sixth, dose up with Heiress. Heading the
next lot, all puling up, were Ms Cath and Gcn
vieux. The others did not pa3s the poet. Mehssa
was dismounted before reaching the stand, and far
behind her came Weodburn, trotting in.
The Nursery stakes, also ran for on Friday were
won by Mr. Ten Broeck's two year-old Umpire, by
Lecompte.
The Washington States says : “Mr. Dimitry will
leave Washington at a very eariy day. perhaps next
Saturday, for Central America. He wiil be instruct
ed not to present his credentials to the Nicaraguan
Government, unless that Government expunges
the obnoxious article in the Lamar Zeledon Treaty,
which, no doubt, will be done long before Mr. Dim
itry reaches Nicaragua. We are satisfied, in faot,
that it hu already been accomplish ed.”
