WEATHER, CROPS, l s .
We continue to lay before our readers inch infer

| Gt.oKMA.-~ We learn that the botl uot $n and tbe
r-u*t is injuring ttie cotton to a great extent in this

On a recent visit to Talbot county, we learn that
the cotton crop is equal if tot superior to what it

Upson Pi/ot.
The weather is dark and gloomy, prospect |
ia that a rainy spell n.ay eet in From the bct
information within our reach, we judge that the ■
fanners in this neighborhood are far from being !
satisfied with the status of their crops. Their faces
wear the bumility of complaint. In Southwestern j
Georgia, the great cotton region of this State, the j
w#-t weather has proved most disastrous to the
hopes cbenaheU when tbe present cotton crop was
planted. An intelligent farmer, who left his plan
tation in Calhoun county, on the i*Jth uit., inform*
us, that be does not expect the yield of half a crop
on his place He gives a similar report tor these
planters who reside near him. —Columbus Times,
i si i nst.
The Chops —Tbe late rains have improved the
appearance of the crops tu a wonderful extent, the
farmer's weather beaien lace does not look so down
cast and low spirited and nodoub* many, even tbe
iniMt Lardeued have returned thanks for the bless
i:ig thus conferred. However, es we a*id iu our
lart there are mary portion* where the corn is
beyond redemption. The cotton is commencing to
open, and what we have seen looks very well, and
in very white, and will bi most certainly classed
“fair. ’ — Huntsville Messenger, 31.
Alabama. — The cotton cop of this section is
not so promising as it was three weeks since. The
excessive rains which we have had recently have j
damaged the crop seriously. We hear conside
rable complaint of shedding, rufct and boll worm, j
It is becoming the opinion of many, that the t
crop of this county w ill not be so good as it was t
last year.— Eufala ( Harbour (Jo.) Spirit of the
Smith.
The great abundance of rain which we have
had for several weeks past, has caused cotton to
shed its bolls and squares to an extent seldom
before equa led in this section The rot too has
made it appearance aud is doing considerable
damage. So after all the growing crop may turn
out to be a very short one. Cotton is much mere
backward than last year, but few boils being a*
yet open iu any of the plantations in this part of
the country.— Linden {Marengo Cos.) Jeffersonian
We still hear sum ; complaint of worms from the
farmers, though the dry hut weather t that succeed
ed the long wet spell, checked their ravages iu a
great meaure. Several of our friends from the
country yesterday, complained, too, ot the rot iu
their cotton. It is yet doubtful what will be the
result of this year’s crop, compared with that ot
last year A few days of favorable or unfavorable
weather w ill make a decided change in the present
pmepect for better or worse.— Selma Courier, 28M
We fear that tbe worms will prove unusually
destructive to the maturing cotton this season.
The prospect ot the crop has very materially chang
ed within a week past. We hear complaints ot
worms aud rust not on y among tbe plantations ol
this country, but our exchanges are making loud
complaints from tbe same cause. A gen'.lema *
of this county informs us that two weeks ago his
prospect was fair lor 300 bale*—now he does not
expect to gather more thau 200 bales.—Montgom
ery Mail
Y’ery many of the planters of this section, who
have bad good opportunities for observation, de
mur from the opinion we expressed last week, in
relation to the cotton crop. Tbe damage is more
t erious, tt ey say, than we are aware of, and on
further inquiry, we are now .satisfied that the
more recent injuries from worm aud rot, abate
somewhat trom our former estimates.
Very little fodder was saved in good condi
tion a large portion having either rotted on the
ground or drisd up on the stock.
The poiatoe crop is iesn promising than it was
earlier in the season.— Union Springs {Ala.)
(iazette.
Mississippi—So far a? we have been able to
learu, the cotton crop this year will be a very
large one. The boll worm has not been ho de
structive as was anticipated, and our planters
generally are in fine spirit*. —Columbus (Miss.)
Democrat, Aug. 27.
Florida.—The rain still continues, almost with
out intermhbion, and a glimpse of sun shine has
become a rarity. We hear complaints from the
interior of damage from the sledding of the cotton,
aud greatly tear that serious injury will be inflicted
upou the cotton crop from this cause, unless a change
soon occurs iu the weather. —Fernandma East
Floridian.
Chops in Louisiana.—The New Orleans Bulle
tin says :
In the South the great staple has already begun
to come in, and the accounts from all quarters re
present it as magmlicent. iu this State there is not
probably a parish in which it w ill not be more than
an average, while in many of them it will be great
er than it ever was before As to the sugar crop,
we are sorry that we cannot also speak in ’he same
strain. Bui the facts will not justify it. Ifit shall
turn out an average crop it will do tu ly as much as
can be expected or more. The caue is some two or
three week.* behind haud, and some of it looks sick
ly and dwarfed. The L*u urche Union of yesterday
nays in that parish hardly a halt crop will be made.
The result will of oouve depend, to a considerable
extent, upon an early or a late lrost.
North Carolina Cotton Crop.—Advices from

Large fields are damaged and others will not inatuie
Extract of a letter to the Savannah Republican
from Stewart county, Sept. Ist ;
“So far as the prospect of the growing crop is
concerned, we have no reason to complain. Al
though cotton has ‘thrown off ’ a great deal iu con
sequence of so much rain, it is supposed that the
yield in this section will approach nearly au ave
rage. The ‘stall of life v/e will have iu abundance,
for which our heaits should be tilled with gratitude
to an over ruliug Providence.”
A private letter to the same paper from Orange
Spring, Fla., dated Aug. 30, says :
“Tbe rains have beeu terrible iu this State ; the
disaster very great to the Sea Islaud cotton,”
Large Transaction in Corn. —The Memphis
Appeal of the 20th says : “As au indication of the
feeling in the corn market in the Mississippi val
ley, we have heard of the purchase, recently, by Mr
Puphain, of Breckinridge county, of two or three
crops, embracing one hundred thousand bushels, at
thirty-tive ceuts per bushel, to be delivered at the
river bank below Cairo.”
To Remove Films.—Having seeu a number of
remedies tor taking him troin horses or catt>e’s
eyes, I’ll give the method that I have practised for
yeuis, without tailing in a single instance. Take
a piece of fresh butter, tbe size of a common wal
uut, aud put it iu the opposite ear—that is, if left
eye, put it in rigtt ear ; if the butter is hard, hold
the ear with your baud for a short time, until it
melt* and runs into the head; inmost cased one
application is all that is necessary. If you have not
got the butter, hug’s lard will answer. —Country
(ientleman.
Great Drought in Maine.—The drought in
Maine is very severe. In mauy towns the wells
are nearly dried up. Brooks that were never
known to be dry, are now entirely dry. F.res are
raging in the woods, which makes it very smoky ;
the atmosphere is quite thick with smoke in many
of the towns in Washington county Vessels that
arrive from sea, report very thick smoke along the
court. At two miles distance trom land, the smoke
is thick as sea fog. The rivers are very low , no
sawing lumber until fall rains.
Hog Cholera.— Ha/nson , 4m#. 22. —As the
“Hog Cholera,” 1 understand, is prevailing in some
portions of East Tennessee, and there has been no
cure found for it, 1 deem it proper to state that a
short time back 1 was in tbe State of Mississippi,
and had a conversation with a gentleman, who in
formed me that turpentine, given at any stage ot
tbe disease, inwardly, and bathed with tbe same,
had never failed to cure all the hogs it had beeu
administered to. This article can be had by every
farmer, aud is worthy of a trial. You can give this
publicly in your paper, as it may be of benefit to
some person.— Chattanooga (iazette.
A Fugitive.—A gentleman of color made Lis ap

ceived material aid and parted with the bles.-iugs
of Lis frieuds here, who bade him good speed, as
they took an affectionate leave. It has since been
ascertained that he came direct from Keene, where
he had been kicked out of the hotels for being a
diunken nuisance. If be is a fugitive, he meaus to
live nigh while his freedom lasts. He u>nt from

Something of interest to demists is communica
ted by Dr. Slayton to the Dental News Letter. He
takes a set of teeth ot silver, copper, or brass, and
after first carefully removing al. grease, rubs one
side with mercury until it had assumed the mirror
appoarauce, and then with a pair *t tweezers lays
on the gold or other foil cnt.in small strips . he then
carefully presses it into tbe teeth, rubbing it well
in, aud treats another side the same way. and so
on. He can lay as many thicknesses of foil as may
be desirable, only taking care that one is firmly
fixed be.ore the other is begun. By placing the
whole in a small oven, and applyiug a small spirit
lamp, the mercury is driven off and burnishing
with a blood stone or steel burnisher, at first not
leaning very hard, a rich gold plating is obtained,
which will not even melt off. and can only be re
moved by a file.
A Poor Way to Bcild Up a New Country.—
At the time of the Frazer River excitement, thou
sands of Americans rushed into the British territory
to get a share of the filthy lucre. The British gov
ernment, beginning to fear for the loyalty of the in
habitants, or for jome other reason, manifested
much jealousy of the “foreigners, ’ and placed them
under many neediees restrictions. In consequence,
large numbers were driven away, so that out of the
60 JKK) emigrants said to have been in Vancouver's
Island and British Columbia last year, about 5,000
only remained—including 3,000 now at Y’ictoria.
An engineer was walking on the levee at St.
Louis one day last week when a nimble thief
snatched hia watch, a valuable gold hunter, and ran
off at a speed that bid fair to defy pursuit. It sc
happened, however, that the party robbed had
a large Newfoundland dog. and instead of troubling
himself by running he spoke a tew word# confident
ly to his tour-footed companion. Off started the
noble animal, and before the thief had gone many
blocks he was dragged to the earth ana secured by
his singular captor. The fellow thought fit to sub
mit to the warrant displayed—two full rows of
formidable teeth—and made no resistance to the
majesty of the law.

of the Government, came under review. The
President in L.a message states the schooling of the
negroes as a part of the contract with the Coloniza
tion Society. Tuis is denied by Mr. Cobb in his
letter to Mr. Jackson. Col. Wright took the Presi
dent’s statement as true, and expressed in warm
terms hia indignation at such a misuse of tbe public
money.
He dwelt on the alarming increase of public
expendituie—eighty three millions a year to carry
on a government that couli be well supported by
forty millions ! In connection with this subject, he
severely censured the administration fur abridging
the mail facilities. Thousands of our worthy people
are deprived of their mails and post offices—the
only branch of the government that comes palpa
bly and beneficently in contact with the body of
our citizens. It is no excuse to say that Congress
failed to make the appropriation. If the President
could not get a Congress of his own party to make
needful appropriations for the public service, there
was rank fault somewhere among the officers of the
Democratic camp.
He a'so remarked upon the great partiality shown
to the North in tbe appropriations, under our De
mocratic administration.
He d.shked Mr. Buchanan’s Cuba policy. It was
dangerous in itself, and perhaps fital a prece
dent, to trust a President with thirty millions of
dollars in advance. His own plan in regard to
Cuba, w&4 to negotiate first, and, if it can be had
on fair terms, to pay afterwards If Spain refusis
to sell, a* she has a right to do, we rnuat let her
keep the island, unless her policy in reference to it
seems dangerous to u£, and then w’e must seize it
with the strong band.
He spoke of the Kansas Bill; the diverse con
struction of it in different sections ; its practica
working against the South; the insidious relin
quishment of Congressional control ever the Terri
t.*rial Legislature ; the absuidity of the boast that
this bill first repealed the Missouri restriction,
when the Territorial Bills of 1851), signed by Fill
more, had done away the principle of that
restriction for New Mexico and Utah. lie ex
posed the deceitful policy of Douglas, to shut
out slavery from the Territories by unfriend
ly legislatiun, showed that such legislation could do
the work as effectually as direot prohibition ; and
declared himself in favor of intervention by Con
gress wherever it may be necessary to protect
slave property, or any other lawful property in the
Territories. If elected to Congress, he should go
uutettered by party shackles. He would not be
restrained from vindicating the rights of the South
by fear of embarraafii g any party frieuds at the
North.
Mr. Jones followed in a speech two hours long
Ho was heard with attention, at first from curiosity,
then from courtesy and lastly from wonder
curiosity, to see what sort of a man was offered us
as a Representative ; courtesy, due to a stranger,
even if he is very dud ; and, as the speech went on
and more aud more of the man began to appear,
wonder that such a man should be iu nomination
for ouch a place. I cannot undertake to sketch his
speech. The strangvness of the jumble batiles all
ordinary powers of description; l can merely touch
a few of the most prominent oddities.
He said that he and the Georgia Democracy are
not responsible for the appropriation to school tbe
Echo negroes, because all their members except
Mr. Jackson (he forgot Judge Wright) voted against
it. Then he insisted that the matter had been mis
understood. On the authority of Mr. Cobb, he
asserted that the schooling was no part of the
contract, but only thrown in as a gratuity by the
Colonization Society, of its own motion. The
appropriation aud the conduct of the Administra
tion in the matter were innocent and proper. Now,
Mr. Jones, will you tell us why your members from
Georgia should vole against an innocent and proper
appropriation ?
lie read from the President’s Message to prove
that the last year’s expenses were only eighty-one
millions. But, as Coi. Wright afterwads showed,
a little further reading from the same document
would have added neai three millions fur mail
service, carrying the total above Wright’s first
statement. The Democratic party, he said, was
not responsible for these expenses, because some of
them were caused by appropriations made by a
Congress, in which the Anibricans and Republicans
had the majority, and some were passed over the
President’s veto. Now, it Mr. Jones knows the
truth and ha9a disposition to tell it, (the latter of
which hypothesis we are unwilling to give up.
though the Democracy do sometimes sorely try our
faith in human veracity) he will tell the people that
ever siuce the Ith of March, 1853, the President
has always been a Democrat, the Senate has al
ways been largely Democratic; and the House of
Representatives has always beeu Democratic, ex
cept in the Congress, ending March 4th, 1857, when
Banks was Speaker by a small plura ity, and even in
that House the only two parties which, by uniting,
could make up a two thirds vote and overule the
President’s veto, were the Republican and the De
mocratic. So in truth, not an appropriation could
have passed tor the last six years without the sanc
tion of a Democratic President, and a Congress
Democratic in all ita branches, or of two third ot
both Houses of Congress, iu neither, of which could
a two third vote be made up without Democratic
help. Who then, Mr. Jones, is answerable but the
Democracy /
On the failure of the last. Congress to provide for
the mail service, he tried to clear his parly from
blame by this monstrous saportion : The bill ap
propriating money for that department came from
the House, and a Democratic Senate amended it by
abolishing the franking privilege, and raising letter
postage to live ceuts, and when the bill went back
to the House for concurrence, the Houee of Repre
sentative 4 *, “in which the Americans and, Republi
cans had a majority,” rejected it, and thus the
bill was lost! Can Mr. Jones possib'y be ignorant
that in the last House of Representatives the Dem
ocratic party largely outnumbered all others and
elected Mr Orr their Speaker, and all other officeis
by clear majority votes ? It he made this assertion
intentionally, he is too ignorant or too reckless to be
worthy of a *eat in Congress.
The funniest of all his ideas was that the Oppoei
tion men in Congress had raised the expenees, so
that they might bring on the Administration the re
p oacb ot extravagance!! Isn’t it a pity that the
Democratic President, Senate and House wore so
stupid as to let the Opposition entrap them so ?
He hobbled along rather clumsily till he reached
the subject of Kuow Nothingism, then his fears
moved him to some fluency. A superstitious horror
of the dark lanterns seems to be the master feeling
of his breast. A negro woman’s dread of a haunted
house, a mad dog’s dread of water, and a witch’s
dread of horse-shoes can hardly rival Mr. Jones’
dread of Sam. It was not very kind in him to be so
very savage on Satn, when it is remembered that
his noisiest friends in this County were once Sam’s
sworn disciples.
He then spoke of the dangers that now overhang
the land. A cloud has arisen, awfully great and
black, and now threatens to burst on us in a furious
and desolating storm. Then he broke out in a
panegyric on the Democratic party—that great
party which has governed the country so long aud
so well, and exhorted everybody to join it as the
only party that can save the country in the present
crisis, &c , Ace., <fce. Some of his hearers were so
saucy as to think that the party, under whose
treatment the country has got so sick, ia not the
best doctor to cure it
To the queatiou, whether he endorsed Mr.
Buchanan's ability and patriotism, he replied that
he endorsed his ability; but. as to patriotism, it
depended on what the word meant If it meant
some measures of the President, which he ap
proved, he endorsed it; if it meant some others,
which he disapproved, he did not endorse it. With
which very luminous exposition, I will take leave
of Mr. Jones.
Col. Wright replied in a few humorous and point
ed remarks, aud the discussion ended, leaving the
impression that the Democracy made an egregious
blunder when they nominated Mr. John J. J^nea.

Messrs. Wright and Jones in Lincoln,
Lincolnton, August 29,1859.
Mr. Editor.- —Messrs. Wright and Jones met
in discussion here on Saturday last, according to
previous notice. They were greeted by quite a
large number of their respective friends, who had
assembled to judge of the respective claims of the
two candidates for the office which they are seek •
i'ig, and deoide upon tbs merits of the men. Mr.
Jones opened in a speech of an hour and a half; and
while the blind partizan may find in his speech
salient points, I must coufess it seemed to me en
tirely wanting in anything like argument. He had
of coarse learned Mr. Wrights position upon all
the points in issue, but instead of meeting his argu
ments and position fairly, he evaded entirely all
prominent quest ions, or agtieijtdbimselt by disposing
of them in some very couveuient and unsatisfactory
way, aud then went off into a glowing eulogy upon
Democracy—lauding that party to the skies —claim
ing it had been in tunes past, was now, and per
fectly willing to be for the future, (in its pecu
liar way.) the savior of our oountry. He next
indulged in some of that worn out slang (peculiar
to men of his calibre) about the awful Know Noth
ing par ty. If such slang and clap-trap can be con
sidered argument aud eloquence, then was the
gentleman happy in the choice of subjects, lint
Mr. Editor, I thick the day has past when these
harangues will prove attractive or even beneficial
to aspiring candidates. Far better to discuss calm
ly and dispassionately the questions at issue. But
I think the gentleman has chosen this course de
liberately. He will go over the district, playing
this same tune without the variations, lie will
endeavor to preiudioe the minds of the p-eople.
knowing his inability to oompete with his opponent
in argument, and while he thus endeavors io array
them against this imaginary bug-bear, he will dar
ter their pride by glowing panegyrics on the great
Democratic party.
In what striking contrast to all this is the course
pursued by Col. Wright. Honest, frank and manly
in his argument, truthful in all his statements, can
did and open as to his position upon any and all
questions, answering without any evasion, ail inter
rogatories pat to him by Mr Jones or his friends,
and upon the questions at issue, bringing to bear
arguments and facts which It is evident are not the
result of cursory or superficial glances, but the re
sult of deep study aud intimate knowledge The
speech of Col. Wright was telling and powerful. It
encouraged hie friends, and his opponents were
alarmed at the ease with which he demolished the
argument of Mr. Jonee, notwithstanding that gen
tleman, twaa said, had slept the night before in
Washington, where shines the great central sun
around which he. among other satellites, revolves
and his friends had enpposed he would at least have
borrowed some of ite ‘metre. But in this they
were, however, disappointed. He emitted no ray,
either borrowed or original When such stuff as
he declaims—such evasive answers as he makes —
can affect the course of an intelligent constituency,
it is time to pans* and ask oureelvee if we. as Demo
crats, Whigs, or members of any other party, are
promoting our interests by placing in power a man
who exhibits such a wan; of information on matters
intimately connected with our future welfare and
prosperity. Can a man, with a stock of knowledge
as to facts involved, the paucity of which would
cause a blush of shame to mantle the cheek of the
veriest tyro in political matters, successfully canvas s
this District for your suffrages ? No ! The inte
rests involved in our future legislation, answer No !
The high standard of intelligence which tnie District
has heretofore required in her Representative,
answers. No! And the vote of the people of the
Eighth Congressional D.strict will, in October next,
answer, to the consternation of Mr. Jones and his
friends. No! Noll Lenox.

Gov Brown nod “hi* man Friday.”
The subeditor of the Atlanta “ Intelligencer : ’ of
diet alt., fcubfctantialiy reiterates bis former mi*
statements. We cannot at preset follow him in all
of Li* new position* and examine them as be re
states them.
YY e will try to profit by “V s' r suggestion that we
are “too abusive” ; we wili not now accuse him of
rslsehood and detraction; we will only prove him
guilty, and reave it to the public to apply any epithet
he may deserve.
“V” said in his first article that Dr. Miller “in
staaced that he (Col. Akin) bad teen mainly instru
mental in racing SIO,OOO for Cassville Male College; ’
in Lis laet. he sa}s, in eubstaDcs that be was mis
taken only iu tbe name of the CVliege. Take him
as now he stands and I again aaeert that there is
net one particle of truth in his statement. I re
peat that Mr Miller made no a luswn whatever to
Caesviiie male College or the Cherokee Bipt’st
College in connection with the r;aine of Col. Akin
Now Mr. “Y\” what do you say ? Do you acknow
ledge your mistake or do you persist in your error f .
Make your election. If you stand by your assertion,
I will prove by Dr. Miller himself that it is false.—
Shall I do it?
It is important to notice such errors only to show*
how unscrupulous are the advocates of Guv. Biown,
especially his special organ, If not himself.
But I insist that “Y’” cannot claim that he was
mistaken. W’hat says he in his last article ? He ad
mite that he heard Dr. Miller a epeecii; says he was
“careful” in his statements, he “took down many of
hie words as they fell hot burn his lips,’ and mira
blt dictu be hat received a letter from Dr. Miller.
Y’ery well, I suppose taat by all this “\ T ANARUS” means to
add force to his reassertioit of the truth ot his state
ment. But “V” goes farther and says that Dr
Miiier aid not complain of bis editorial, what then ?
There can be now no room tor a mistake. If Dr.
Miller did not make the statement, “Y r ” might at
first have been on'y mistakeu, notc I feel authorized
to say that in Lie last article he Dhs deliberately re
peated a falsehood. You shall not escape. You nave
been too careful and particular for mistake. Can
you not be as candiu in this matter as you have
shown yourself to be in relation to your birth-place.
Come out and be a man once. Admit your error
aud call it by its proper name. At present sir one
might be excused for believing that you would give
more “money” for Dr. Miller’s “powers as an orator’’
than you would give for a disposition to tell the
thruth and do justice to political opponent. Your
articles furnish much matter for denunciation but
Kingston cannot at present comment on all of your
errors and quibbles and evasions.
You cannot, Mr.*‘V” point to any understanding
of Col. Akin to carry the Kinney case to the Su
preme Court. Months ago, Col. Akin published a
letter in the Chronicle &. Sentinel, and it was
copied into other papers ; and in that letter Col. A.
stated that he was to attend to that case only in
Csss Superior Court. Such, too, was doubtless
Gov. Brown’s understanding, because the Gov
ernor never furnished “Y\” with false facts till
Col. Akin became a candidate for Governor in
opposition to himself. Governor Brown never re
quired “Y\” to smuder his better till it was deemed
■ lie iutereet of the Governor to do so. There may
be a difference between tbe Governor and his
•“Man Friday;” the ore nay iusis* on false infer
ences to injure a rival; the other only labors in
“Lis vocation.’’ Let me give “V.” an illustration
which be may be able to comprehend .- A. is sued
in a Justice’* Court anu employs “Y\” to defend
him—he agrees to give “V.” a very liberal fee for
the services which he is able to render—say fifty
cents. The Justice gives judgment in favor of A ;
an appeal is entered; “V.” “does the best he can,”
but the jury tiida verdict against A. “Y r .” thinks
error has beeu committed agaiut his client, and the
verd ct could be set aside by Certiorari. “V.” was
to attend to the case to its end. Now is “V.” un
der auy obligation to carry the case to the Superi
or Court for the original fee / No lawyer would so
understand “V.’s” duty; no honest man would
expect the additional services for nothing. “V.”
complains that Kingston writes “over a fictitious
signature.” Admit it. Can “V.” or Governor
Brown complain ? Has not the Governor himself
published au article, designed to injure a rival,
over a false signature ? No one wifi question that
“YV is supposed to represent the sub-editor of the
Intelligencer; yet, uj one can doubt “from this
article,” that in this instance “YV’ was substantial
ly the Governor himself.”
This is not the first time the Governor has pub
lished editorials against a rival candidate ; (see the
“ Confederacy,”) imitating his former editorial
career, he nut only abuses his competitor, but he
must needs say a few modest words lor “Col.
Brown.”
Perhaps Kingston was wrong, and that instead of
correcting “\ r .” he ought to have begun at the
bottom and deait alone with Governor Brown.—
But “Y r .” was so indiscreet, as to mix up matter of
his own with that furnished by the Governor;
hence he should not complain. Hereafter, it “V.”
shall follow his “first” conclusions, Kingston will
probably devole himself to the master ; only, if the
the tool crosses his track, Kingston may be tempt
ed to give him a kick.
A parting word to “V.He says be can stand
om style-, so he can. He can stand our charges
aud our proofs, so he shall. Neither the fact that
the Agent of the Cherokee Baptist College dined
with “YV’ “not long ago,” nor that other astound
ing fact that he received a letter from Dr. Miller,
shall excuse him from any comments Kingston may
think he deserves. “V. received a letter from
Dr. Miller !! Happy man I “V.” intimates that
Kingston is neither a Baptist nor a Christian. Be
it so If to be a Christian I must cease to be a
gentleman; it to be a Baptiat I must “bear false
witness” against my neighbor, then 1 can claim to
be neither a Baptist nor a Christian.

The Kiiusaft Bill i Uoiirlhm, nnl Dougina ia
the KaneuM Bill.
Mr. Editor Before lam through, I will show
that Douglas and the Kansas Bill are one. Let us
go back to 1818, and fiud out the idea in dispute
between the North and South on the subject of
slavery in the territories, and learn, if wo can, what
the South understood non-intervention to be ; for
right there is the deception. There were two doc
trines of non-intervention held—one by the North
and one by the South. Gen. Casa and Douglas
held that the people of a territory had the right to
exclude, destroy, or establish slavery in the territo
ries. Mr. Calhoun and Judge Berrien held that
neither Congress nor the people of the territories
had the right t"> destroy, establish or txc’uda slave
ry in the territories. The South, in 1848, rejected
Gen. Cass and his Northern doctrine of non-inter
vention, or popular sovereignty in the territories
The doctrine of non-intervention as held by Gen.
Cass and Douglas, was denominated by Mr. Cal
houn, Squatter Sovereignty; and that doctrine of
non intervention which received the condemnation
both of Calhoun and Berrien in the Senate and
the whole Southern peop’e, was incorporated in the
Douglas-Kansas bill; and is to-day the living and
moving principle, to the injury of the South in
Kansas, and all the common territory of the United
States.
That the people may know I am right, and have
not mistated the position of the North and South in
1848, aLd 1850, on the subject of slavery in the
Territories, 1 will quote irom a epeecb made by
Senator Norris, of New Hampshire, 3rd day of
March, 1851. Senator Norris will be, no doubt,
good authority for the Constitutionalist , for he
was one of the faithful 44 or 51 Northern Demo
crats that voted for the Kansas bill of 1854. Mr.
Norris, iu his place in the Senate of the United
States, said, “Here it may not be amiss to remark,
that non intervention, as contended for by the
South was. that Congress should not interfere with
the subject of slavery in the Territories, nor permit
the Territorial Legislature to do so ; while the
non-intervention advocated by the North was, that
the people of Territories, through Legislatures ,
chosen by themselves, should manage that subject,
like all others, as they should think proper. I planted
myself upon the noble and manly doctrine of the
distinguished Seuator from Michigan, (Mr. Cass.”}
See Appendix to Cong. Globe, vol. 29,1854, page
305.
Mr. Douglas has, since 1848, stood beside Mr.
Norris on the doctrine of Gen. Cass. YY’e find Mr.
Douglas in the Senate, iu 1851, declaring the non
intervention in Gen. Cass’ Nicholson letter, was in
the Kansas bill, “ plain as language could make
it.” [See Douglas’ speech, 30th Jan., 1854.]
Again: Douglas, on the 23d of Feb., 1859, in the
Senate, insisted that Gen. Cass was the champion
of the Northern doctrine of non-intei ventiou, as
explained by him (Cass) in its broadest and most
unrestricted sense, in his Nicholson letter. [See
Cong. Globe oi 1858 and 1859, page 1255 ] Well,
sir, the Northern doctrine of non-intervention in
contradistinction to tbe Southern doctrine of non
intervention, allows the Territorial Legislature to
destroy, establish or prohibit slavery in the Terri
tories. If Judge Douglas is to be believed, that
right, by the Kansas bill, is given to the Terri'orial
Legislature, indirect opposition to the doctrine of
nou-in’ervention, as helu by the South, iu the me
morable contest of 1850, He who denounces
Douglas, must denounce the Kansas bill, for Doug
las and the Kansas bill agree as to the right of the
Territorial Legislature, under the power to regu
late, to destroy, or prohibit slavery in the Territo
res. Judge Iverson, in his speech at Griffin,
repudiated and denounced both Douglas aud the
Kansas bill, for tbe reason that they are one and
the same in principle.
There is another striking fact that I wish to call
to your notice and the notice of the people of the
Eighth District, and it is this; There is not an
anti-Douglas Democratic paper in Georgia that
de:euds the Kauaas bill. YY’by ? Because they
know Douglas is the Kansas bill, and the Kansas
bill is Douglas. But little now is said by these
a-iti-Douglaa papers, for that bill which, m 1855,
and 1856, they told the people was the best bill
ever passed by Congress lor eiavery in the Territo
ries. The Douglas papers defend the Kansas bill,
because they know Douglas must stand or fall by
that bill in the South. The Constitutionalist is
urging the people of the Bth District not to elect
Col. Wright—not to repudiate the Kansas bill—not
to repudiate Douglas, and that, too, while two
thirds, if not three fourths, of the Democratic press
es, and the Democratic party in Georgia, repudiate
Douglas and his Kansas bill.
I think I have redeemed the promise I made in
the commencement of this article. J have put be
fore the people the difference between the North
and the South, in ISJS and 1850, on the subject of
slavery in the Territories. I have showed the Nor
thern and Southern doctrines of non-intervention
to be tntirely and distinctly different in principle
and tendency. I have shown the Kansas bill to be
the offspring of Northern non-intervention and
Squatter Sovereignty. In conclusion, I have shown
Douglas and the KaLsas bill one and indivisible.

I Judge Iverson nod itie Lolumbuo Times,
Mr. Editor: —The Daily Columbus Times of
j the 2<i Kepttmbtr qaotos this fact from the laat
article I sent you, to wi* “Judge Iverson, ia
bis speech at Griffin, repudiated and denounced
both Douglas aLd the Kane as bill, for the rea:ou
that they are one and the s*me in principle. *
Tne Coiumbus Time* saye, “Judge Iverson did
no such thiDg. He Las cevtr repudiated the
Kansas bill.” We 1 !, I say Judge Iverson did re.
pudiate the Kansas bill, aod Douglas too, ia hi*
speech at Griffin; and I will prove that speech
show bn repudiated both “The South,” says
Judge Iversou, “ was entitled to Kin-aa, and it
justice f ad been done her, cha would Lave takeu
Kansas ” “The lots of Kansas to the Sou h was

that I was once the advocate of tue latter heresy.
Squatter Sovereignty. 1 was ready to take it as
the best we could get. I was wrong, and I admit,
regret and recant the error.”
Again, Judge Iverson speaking of wbat the
South ought to have done, he says, “had the South
demanded protection to their slave property by
federal laws, (not Territorial laws) daring the
exis encs of the Territorial governments as a
c edition of remaining in the Union, we should
never have been cursed with the wretched uncer
tainties and unmeaning generalities of the Kansas
bill, and the thour-and bills of which it has been the
prolific a jurce ” I have no disposition to irisrep
re3ent Judge Iverson or any one else; and that
the people of the E ghth district may know that I
rightly understood aud correctly represented
Judge Iverson’s position to the Kansas bill. I will
quote and repeat here, wl t Senator Toombs said
of Judge Iverson and the Kinsae bill, in his speech
at Lexington. Mr. Toombs, after speaking of tbe
Kansas blil, said :—“ And Air. Iverson , and others ,
who denounced that measure, deserved the condemna
tion of the freemen of Georgia .” What wili the
Columbus Times say to that t Will it say now,
Col. Toombs and Judge Iverson agree, aud “stand
baud in band upon tbe cardinal principles of the
Democrat c party.”
Mr. Editor, I have shown from Judge Iverson's
speech at Griffin, that Kansas would have been a
eiave State, but for the legitimate and inevitable
fruit ot the popular or Squatter Sovereignty ele
merits of the Kansas bill. I show, frurn Judge
Iverson’s own language, he once advocated Squat
ter Sovereignty in the Kansas bill, but now iepu
diates the legitimate and inevitable result of the
Kansas “ swindle , and curses” the
eas bill as a fraud upou the South and country.
The Times will recollect the Legislature of Geor
gia only endorsed the principle in the Kansas bill
that relerred to the question of slavery in the Ter
ritories. YY’ell, under that principle in the Kansas
bill we lost. Kaunas ; for, uffud you, Judge Iverson
says the loss of Kansas to tbe South was the legiti
mate, and that is not all, it was not only the legiti
mate but the inevitable result oi the Kansas bill
Inevitable means that which cannot be avoided
Then, according to Judge Iverson, the loss of
Kansas to the South could not be avoided, because
of the prmciple iu the Kansas bill that referred to
slavery, aud which piinoiple only oi that bill, was
endorsed by the Legislature of Georgia. There
fore, Judge Iverson called it a cursed and wretched
thing of uncertainties, and unmeaning generalities.
I ask the Times oi what value cau the Kansas bill
be to the South, if the only principle for which
Georgia voted tor in the bill, turns out to be a
legitimate aud inevitable result of the destruction to
and exclusion of slavery from the terri cries l In
conclusion, I aay “ Senator ” Iverson in his speech at
Griffin repudiated and denounced both Douglas and
the Kansas bill, for the reason that they are. one
and the same m principle.

Mr. Editor As an occasional correspondent I
may be excused for writing au occasional scrap of
uews, gathered from circumstances transpiring
around me.
Our Superior Couit has just closed, Judge E
G. Cabauiea presiding; some business engaging and
challenging the ordinary amount of interest felt al
ways by our people iu tha terms of our Superior
Court, has been disposed of, aud some matters of
special concern which commanded a larger share of
public curiosity. During the term the important
litigation giowiug out of the will of the late Little
berry Lucas, was for the present, at least, brought
to an end iu one of its forms, by a compromise ver
dict. This case at the present as at the August
term one year ago, was tbe occasiou for bringing
our esteemed fellow-citizen, B. IT. Hill, Esq,
amongst us, who on Tuesday last, honored himself
and friends, with a most triumphant speech in vindi
cation of and enlargement upon hia letters to Col.
Dudley, and upon tne striking points of contrast in
character and principle, between Gov. Brown and
Col. Akin, of both of whom he drew most apt and
forcible pictures.
The speech waa listened to with great interest,
by men of all parties, from this and several of the
adjoining counties, and was not only approved be
cause of its soundness upon general politics, but
on account of the forcible bearing of the general
question upon the election for Governor in Ooto
ber, as it clearly identified Gov. Brown with the
administration, squatter sovereignty, alieu suffrage,
Mr. Douglas aud the Cincinnati platform. And
Col. Akin, with equsff rignts in all the territories of
the UnioD, aud the sound and sale solution of tho
whole question by embodying the law as its expo
nent, found in the Dred Scott and Amy decisions,
the argument was souLd, comprehensive and un
answerable.
In this country, which has suffered much from
unreliable banking institutions, it has been thought
by Gov. Brown’s friends, that he would, !roin a
sort of exuberant hatred to Banks and an unsus
pecting confidence on the part of the people iu his
pretended Bank policy, make some inroads upon
the Opposition ; not so, far from it., for net ouly
will the Opposition poll ita full strength against
him, but more, some ot our very best, most intelli
gent and influential Democratic fellow-citizens will
vote and do all they can for Col. Akin, and are
now openly in the field ior him, men who never
sought or wanted office, but who, upon a closer re
view of the whole theory, upon which Gov. Brown
sought or wanted office, but who, upou a calm re
view of the whole theory, upon which Gov. Brown
has chosen to rest hia claims to popular support,
and the inherent impropriety of his general Nation
al affiliations, resolve that his claims cannot meet
their approval. Monkok.
Protection to Naturalired Citizens.—.J
Case in Point. —By the last arrival from Europe
we find the following, which will be received with
pleasure by all classes of citizens, especially our
German friends, says the Richmond Enquirer :
The American ambassador, Mr. Wright, has ob
tained from the Prince Regent of Prussia full uar
don for Franz Hoffmann, of Chicago. Mr. Hoff
mann left Prussia when Le was twenty years old,
without having fulfilled hia military service. When
he returned a short time ago, he was imprisoned, and
sentenced to pay a heavy line. Out of regard for
the United States, the Prince Regent has annulled
these punishments.
New Jersey Politics.— The nomination of the
lion. Peter J. Clark, of Huntingdon, N. J., a gen
tleman of high character, for Governor, by the
American Convention, which met at Camden on
Thursday last, has created considerable of a sensa
tion in political circles.
Massachusetts Politics.— The National Ame
rican State Committee have determined to issue a
call for a State Convention to aeeemble in Boston
early in October, for nominating a Governor and
other State cfficers, with no coalition with any other
party.
Territorial Banks. —Judge Sears, of the Third
Judicial District of lowa, has decided in a suit in
stituted on a promissory note endorsed to the
Bank of Tekama, Nebraska Territory, that all in
corporated Banks in that Territory are iliega’, and
all business transacted by them as corporations is
in violation of law. The decision is given under
the act of Congress of 1853.
Trade Between the United States and
France.— The Treasury Department is now pre
paring some interesting statistical tables relative to
the trade between the United States and France,
exhibiting, by comparison, the amount of duties
paid by each on the imported products of the other.
These tables, it is understood, are designed to
facilitate the negotiation of a treaty between the
two countries by which our commercial interests
will be extended.
Robert Wickliffe, Esq., aged 85 years, the
wealthiest man in Kentucky, aud the father-in-law
of Mr. Preston, United States Minister to bpain,
died on Thursday last.
Stock of Sugars in New York.—The stock of
sugars, now in New York, is said to consist of
73,000 bhds., 23,000 boxes, and 70,000 bags. The
Post, of Thursday evening, says:
This is a larger supply than we anticipated, and,
consequently, some holders are anxious to realize,
and have yielded Jo. to day to effect Bales. The
anticipated liberal supply, both of hogsheads,
boxes and begs yet to come forward before the
close of the season, with stock now on hand, leads
many to believe that we shall enter the new jear
with a very considerable surplus of stock, if prices
do not in the mean time rule so low as to induce
very free consumption.
Senator Hunter, of Virginia, has declared in a
speech, that if the Democratic party does not re
pudiate the principles of Popular Sovereignty, and
advocate in lieu thereof the principle of Congression
al intervention, the party ought to be disolved, and
the sooner the better.
Lieut. Beale's Exploring ExPEDirioN.-Lieut.
Beale and party reached Kansas city on the 24th
inst. from his second exploration of the 35th paral
lel. Lieut. B. has been absent ten months, and
has opened 1,41X1 miles of wagon road and travel
led about 3,1)00 miles. He reports an abundance
of wood and water West of Albuquerque.
Chinese Christians. —The North China Herald
notices the marriage of a couple of Chinese Chris
tians by the Rev. K. C. Wong, as the first instance
in which all the parties concerned were at once
Chinese, Christian and Protestant. The bride was
entirely hidden under the red robes, crown-shaped
head-dress, and red crape veil of the Ming dynasty,
a costume which the Tartar conquerors have never
succeeded in changing. There was music, aud a
profusion of garlands and ffoVers.
—r* —
The Richard R. Ccyler.— The N. Y. corres
pondent of the Charleston Courier sayeof this new
steamer : “Alongside where the Carolina is lying,
the new propeller, to be called the Rickard R.
Cuyler , in the Savannah line, was yesterday towed.
Her boilers are ail ready and awaiting her on the
deck. This new vessel is of a moat beautiful
model, and if she is given sufficient power will
make some of the fast side-w heel craft ‘stir their
stumps’ to beat her.”
Steam Ships. —The Charleston Mercury of
Wednesday morning says : Our Philadelphia and
New York steamers are at present doing a very
heavy freight business. The Keystone State, which
arrived ou Sunday night, from Philadelphia, had
one of the largest freights ever brought to this port
by steamer ; and the Nashville, from New York,
which arrived yesterday morning, was full of freight
on Thursday last, thereby compelling the officers of
that ship to turn away cargo two days before she
left port. As we understand that onr neighbors of
Savannah have four steamships from New York
each week, for the present would it not be right and
profitable to add two large propeller ships to the
Charleston and New York line. The Nashville also
brought a large number of passengers.
Au infant child belonging to a Mrs. Burns in
Cincinnati, fell out of a second story window, but
was providentially saved by failing directly upon
the back of a passing deg. The fall, however, kill

Liverpool Market.
LIVERPOOL, Aug. 19.—There is no change in gene
ral business this week. The well advised measures of
the Emperor of the French seem likely to give more
confidence In the stability of peace. Money continues
abuudtnt, aud the apprehensions of an advance in the
rate of discount have fort he present ceased.
The Cotton market has again been dull, and tliia is
now the third week that the trade have Lought less than
their estimated consumption, though exporters and
speculators have operated to a lair extent. Holders
continue to offer their stocks freely, and a'l descriptions
of Cotton arc again lower, tae middling and better grades
of American being less affected than the lower grades.
Sandy and dusty Cottons are almost unsaleable. We
quote Middling Orleans 7d ; Uplands 6 13-16d. In Bra
zils the businesi has been very trilling. Egyptians are
lower. There is only a moderate demand lor Surats,
which are rather lower. The sales for the week are
33,970 bales, of which 26,250 to the trade, 2960 to expart
ers, and 3740 io speculators. We had a quiet market
again to-day. Sales 6000 bales, of which 1000 for export
and on speculation.
Manchester. —Onrmarket has been quiet during the
week, and both Go jdsand Yarns are rather easier.—
For the Continent there is still a fair enquiry, but buy
ers for India have kept alool since the last dull accounts
from thenc e.—Stolterfohl, Sou’s 6f Cos.
LIVERPOOL, Aug. 19.— Ceiion —The market has
beeu very dull all the week, but ends witn a slightly
better feeling. Cotton is still freely offered, and all
qualities must be quoted rather lower, say id per 15 in
grades above and below middling, aud l-16d per 15 iu
middling, which seems to be the quality most in demand.
Ail sandy and dusty Cottons are qnue neglected. In
Manchester there is very little doing, but iu the absence
of stocks of Goods and Yarns prices generally are fairly
supported. Middling Orleans 7 l-16d ; Mobile 6 15-16d ,
Uplands * 13 16d per 15.
Breadstuff*—The arrivals this week consist of 1340
quarters Corn from Canada , 2833 quarters Wheat, 1124
quarters Corn, 157 sacks Flour from France, 539 quar
ters Wheat from the Baltic, and 11,844 quarters Corn
from the Mediterranean. Farmers deliveries of Wheat
for the week ending last Saturday were 98,044 quarters
at 43s lid, against 95,664 quarters at 45s 2d in the cor
responding week of last year. During the past week
the reports of the weather, althougu in some districts
showery, have been generally fine, aud harvest work
makes satisfactory progress. The Grain Trade has
ruled quiet, with littlechange in the value of any article.
At our market to-day, an improved tone was manifested
in Wheat, and a fair consumptive business was done,
chiefly in French Red, at prices in some cases the turn
dearer. Flour quiet at Tuesday ’s rates. Indian Corn
freely offered and difficult to sell at previous prices.—
Egyptian, more or less out of condition, has arrived
freely, and is offered at 24s to 27s per 480 lbs. We quote
Wheat —Red Chicago and Milwaukie, 7s 6d to 8s 34 ;
Indiana 8s 9d to 9s 2d; White Western 9s to 9s 6d
Fleur 12s to 12s 3d. Indian Corn—Mixed and Yellow

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.— Stocks, 4 t: —Exchange on
London ia rather firmer. We hear ot sales ct bankers
bills at 110i lor to morrow’s steamer, with a moderate
demand only. The market ia rather more firm than for
Wednesday s steamer.
Money ia very easy, and the payments into Bank less
than in July and August. Prime business paper is taken
at 0, , and 7 per cent, outside the banks. The latter
have money to lend “on call” at 6 &7 per cent., the trans
actions generally at the higher rate.
The Stock market is very variable. The specula
tive feeling is strong, and the time sales a fraction under
cash rates, showing a bearish propensity among opera
tors. The failures at the Stock Board this week are
W. Haviland, T. E. Brown, Manweli 6c Dart.
U. S. five per cents, are quoted 3 higher than before.
After the First Board this morning prices were not fully
sustained.
