The Democracy, we understand, are in a beautiful muss in Kaodolph county, and the harder they try to rxtrii ale themselves the Jespkr they get their feet in iu. They firot nominatsd Mr. Brooks for the Senate, and Mcsaro. Coleman and Taylor for the House, and these gantlenien accepted. But at a ■ ub«Mjntnt meeting thpy requested three nopinres to come down again, and Messrs, Broriks and Coleman obeyed the eaminoor, hut Mr. Taylux refused and bolds on to the ktetioo '-assigned -him. In kite meantime there is an. Ikdopoudent candidate up for ihe Senate, and he deelkrCs that lie will run throa^li. Thi ptrty aft in a strait, and no Way of delitetum-e appear# to havo barn yet discovered. our liiende down tlierp h« on the alurt, and see to it that Mr. Doog* (ass is not forgotten in the esciiement of this Iftiral light of the fuetions. Wo learh that he will get u gttut.many Democratic votes ui H^hilulpb, hut the Opposition should uet totj on Democratic voles to elect him— let then) put their own ahmilJore to the wheel,ami Whigs and Drmochits tnako a strong pull vtl (ugethtY. 7hw Jrtt-KSan of it* A correspondent of tha I'imrs, giving U report of tho discussion between the ^auilidktes for Congress at Hpega Villa, fiullingly paraded tho statement that Mr. Douglass wa« not applauded' or cbecrod throughout his speocli. Now, we learn that the trull) is riraply this : .Mr. Douglaks spnko first, and at tho outset of hie remsrki requoritud hia liirnds not to cheer or applaud him, telling them that they were in church anj it would b« improper to do to. Mr. Crawford or hie friends not being.eo Scrupulous, tbo speech of I lie Administration candidate was more noisily received. The' dca that Mr. Crawford could elicit heartfelt ippluUvc from an saseutbly which listened indilT. rcntly to Mr. Douglass, ia simply laughable. JS. 11.—Wo did not get tho above true version of the applause at Buena Vista from Judge Crawford, nor do wo suppose llint lybgdy elso obtained from him a sim ilar Statement during his recent visit to Columbus. Another Speech by Senator Toombs. The Augusta Dispatch of Friday evening contains a synopsis of a speech delivered by Hon. -Robt. Toombs at Concert Hall, Augusta, on the previous evening. . We do not find In It anything novel or striking? Mr. Toombs cipreeved .the opinion that Congress had full nnd ample power to'pro hibit tho Afrienn elavo trade, lie defended Squatter or Territorial Sovereignty, and of Douglas him self be said : "Douglas was not hik choice'for the Presidency, hut ha would support. him' sooner than any Opposition mat) in the United Htstcs. Douglas had bean in orror; but ho is a bold, manly, truth ful, independent patriot, and Mr. Toombs enjoined on tbs reporters to pot that down.” Tho Hon. Senator is rather bitter against ths Southern Opposition, for a wan who wns so recently one of their leaders; and he takes very kindly to "Popular Sovereign ty” now, considering that ho denounced it, when promulgated by Utn. Cess in 1848, as “worse than the ( \Vilmol Proviso.” lie boasted of hit defrat of the Postoflics hill st the close of the last session of CongrriH, when, it will' be remembered, ha killed it by kpesktiig sgninst time, and the De inocrscy then charged its loa* upon the Opposition 1 Tho only part of his sp In which we can discover any patriotic Southern #p7ril is his opposition to lb- Pacific Hail road hill, and even in thin he manifested tha narrow feeling of s biller partisan by declaring that though it was mesaure of the Administration the country would havo to look to the’ Democracy to defeat it! Mr. Toombs seems to be "in” for « canvass in behalf of J. J. Jones and the Dsmrcrscy generally, and wo will soon see whether auch doctrines and personal preferences as ho announces will help U»® p« r ‘y- CP' Two pertiesof Irishmen, Orangrroco and Catholics, had a Idoody fight about their religious ditforoncsf, in New York city, on Tuesday mufoing list. Knives and other deadly weapms were used with terri ble efiect. One man was suppoe®*! t a be mortally wounded, and tnsuy others wore severely hurt. The policemen arrested ten of the rioters, hioat of wherfl were wounded. They refosed to testify against each other, and it was thought there would he difficulty in obtaining the e a idenco necessary to punish them severely. Loo* Ovt !—The New York correspon dent of the Charleston Mercury says : "The forthcoming bouk °n tho cruise of tho yacht Wanderer will mnke a sensation. It ie brought out by a person Who look a part in her adventures, and will give a ininote account thereof, and will disclose factf hith erto unknown end unsuspected, involving the reputation of tnony public wen, from United Slates Menators down to the govern mental emoll fry. The hook will be out * Legislative. In Clay county, the Opposition parly have nominated Col. Win. C. Gates for the Senate, and Pickard Grimiley for Repre sentative, This is a good ticket, aud wc shall be pleased to hear of it# mccesr, of which, we understand, the proapyct ia encouraging. Kobt. J.

In Richmond county, the Opposition have nominated lion. Thos. -W. Miller for Sen ator, end lions. Wn>. Gibson and Win. J. Rhodes fat Kopresentetlvus. This is an ablo and invincible ticket. ll«u).

We have the must encouraging reports of Mr. Doimans* prospects in a number of thn counties south of us. Mr. Crawford fisn not been able, and will not bo ablf, to rally even bis own party to his support, but many of them will heartily support Mr. Douglass.

The steamer Ascyn* pion, whilst proceeding up tho Parana with our minister, Mr. Yancoy, on l/oard, bad been fi*rd into from Rosario. Mr. Yancey hai|- protested against the fact, and also against the decree of Gen.

Cdamgx in th* Mail Sksvju*.—The through roalj that has Mr some years been transported from Augusta to Montgomery via MUIcn aud Macon, has been transferred to the old route via the Georgia Railroad and Atlanta. K3T Tbo President hoe postponed tha •alee in Mianasot« uf *U pre-empted land, and it ia charged end believed that tbo measure has been adopted solely with a view of influencing the approaching aloe- iiune iu that Bute. IJT The j opulatiou of ibe city of Atlanta ,«sMd to he tWui ll, 6 **' New York Politics. Tho Ulnck Republican Nlnte CunvsntioTi met at HyraCuse on the 7th inet., and ucniineted the fallowing ticket: Fur Hecretg’ry fit.State, Elios W. Lenvco- worth, of Ounndngo county ; ComptrulliT, Kobort Donnisoo. vl Orange cue my; At torney General, Chnrlue H. Myers, of Hr. Lawrence county ; State Engineer, Orville W. Htory, ot Alleghany fuujity. It is a tact worthy of note, that ftono of llicsu nominees ever belonged to the Ainor- 'icon organization, but nutl ot them ere old Democrats. Tho i/ivurcc hstween the Black Republicans end the Americana appesra to have boon completed by this Convention, d there is now hardly a doubt that tho American Convention will nominate a straight ticket of ita own, as it did last year. Not only tho Americans individually, but American principles also, were giveu up, and the Foreign Democracy touted by (ho declaration that tho Republican party con tends for “liberty of consclenco arid equality of rlghta to all cituwns”—a principle opposed by no party, but its enunciation in Uicso terms being a elate iujitttion of Democratic ptrvcrbion of American purposes. Indeed, the argument was advanced iu debate that attempts to conciliate llie Americans would bo fruitless, or wuuld drive oil' five Gnman voters to every American gained by conces sions to the latter. Nevertheless, it is o significant fact that tho Convention did not endorse Howard's *idra of an "irrepressible conflict'' between freedom and slavery, nor did it in any way indicate a preference for Seward for the Presidency. Tho New.York Herald regard! this omission and neglect as a'virtual defeat of Howard's plans end aspirations. The Democratic party ie *tili far from harmonious, and it is vsry hsrd to say whether tho policy of the HarJs or tire Hofts will prevail in their SUaio Convention. Tire friends of Mr. Dickinson have made.a liattsr showing in the ’ election of delegate# than was expected of Urera. Their policy is to postpope the election of d'frgutra to the Charleston Convention, and to chuosa them next year by dRtrict* * while the friends of Douglsa and Hsymour prefer their Appoint ment by the Convention soon to assemble. Double delegations have been sent ftotn a number ot country Districts, and New York city will certainly send two sets—the feud between tho Muzsri Hall or Herd Democracy and tha Tammany Hall or Bolt wing being utterly irreconcilable. The former favor UtckiueoQ and postponement, tho latter Douglas and (he selection of delegates to Charleston bf Too Convention. It is pos sible that a split may occur in the squabble about the admission of these c6nilici(ug delegations. Wo shall soon see. ^ The First District* Though it ie Uje in tho canvass, we arc glad to see that there is at length a prospect of opposition to Judge Love.
