Tho Girard Railroad.
The Union Springs Gazette complains of
tho inadequacy of the Mobile and Girard
Railroad, as nt present equipped, to transact
tho business of the country traversed by it.
After noticing tho mergelic steps taken by
President t*eale anti others to prosecute the
mtruction of (he Montgomery and Ui
Springs Railroad expeditiously, it says:
"The great necessity of thin rood is very
■verely felt at this particular
Mt-biJo Jk. Girard Rond has recently' met
ih a suceuf-hiun id reverses which has
idercd it inadequate to the business of the
Road. Although we feel satisfied that Ma-
Howard, tho Ptebidcnt of tho Kuad, is
exerting himself to tho utmost, wo would
respectfully siiirgesi the propneiy of pur
chasing n neVEngine, in order to obviato
the great inconvenience Planters and others
a>e subjected to in the delay of shipments.
Wo have recently heard of Cotton being
hauled from this Depot to (Montgomery and
Kuluula, which should noi snd would not
tucilities lor transportation over
were •ufliciout. Wo sincerely
hope to seo tins matter remedied."
We nra suliahod that the misfortunes of
tho 11 ad, nnJ not the neglect of tho Presi
dent, are thejf causo of tho inetliciency
complain* d of. The Occidents which have
disabled tho engine* of tho road could not
have been foreseen. Wo learn that another
engine was last week disabled, after tho
appearance of tho Gazette's article ; hut wo
heard at the same lime a report (which wo
presume to bo the truth) that M«j. Howard
was making an eiTort to borrow temporarily
an engine or two from the Muscogeo Road.
We hope thut ho has been successful,
ihnl very soon the road will be enabled to
do all its business tvlth dispatch.
The Constitutional ConvonUoti.
The hill providing for the call of
Convention to revue the Constitution w:
dufealrd in I he benatu on Friday, upon
point ui order, and with it fell tho only
chance of Electing a reduction of thi
number of members, of the Legislature
Regarding this as ihe\aot.t important ques
tion of tho session—believing thi
people of Urn (Stale desired and expected
this reform to ho initiated by the Legisla
ture, and will be disappointed by its fail'
—wo join the Southern Recorder in
appeal to the people *qo hold its opponents
to a strict account lor their vote."
As we have said, thu bid waa defeated in
the Benulu upon a point ol order, but thn
vote on that point n<> doubt correctly indi-
catea the intuntion of each Senator to call
or defeat tho Convention—tho Recorder
soya that “it was no doubt lbe settled pur
pose on Hie purl of its opponents'’ to defeat
(he bill. The point raised was that a bill
similar in its character had been indefinitely
postponed, and necotding to the Constitu
tion tho tuiue subject could not come up
again. 'I'bis point ol order was auaiainud
by the Semite. Mr. McGehee moved to
re-consider tbj> vole on tho point of enter.
Mr. Harris raised another point, (hat n
motion could riot be' twice re-considered,
and this point was sustained by the Senate
—thus d. leafing the Convention hill (or tho
suasion— by tho following vote:

The Responsibility Fixed.
The question, which of tho two parties
from the South will bo responsible if a
Black Republican is elected Speaker, has
length l>eeu settled beyond further cavil.
The '‘South Americans” have obtained foi
their candidate enough conservative vote*
from the North to have elected him if the
National nr Administration Dunocrary had
voted for him, and this without tbo aid ol
ingle Douglas Democratic vote. On the
7th balloting, Mr. Gilmer, a Southern man
nd one of the largest slaveholders in the
louse, obtained 3G votes, comprising 2*
South Americana" and a few conservative
Northern Opposition members. With the
80 votes cast on that balloting for Bocock,
he would have had 122, or 8 more than
enough to elect. But tho Democracy would
K givu up party for the axko of dcioating
Black Republican.
On tbo other hand, tho Democracy have
;ver yet cast for Mr. Bocock, their caucus
nominee, votes enough to elect biin with
tho entire Southern Opposition support.
They have never yet rallied their owu entira
parly, either North ar South, for Uncock.
Boasting 101 members of tho House—so
published and classified day after day by
the Congressional Globe, the official paper
of Congress—they have never polled for
r 88.

Another tact ought to bo taken into
consideration. The Democracy are running
a kind of fishy, compromise candidate, who
refuses to say whether he will support
Douglas or his squatter sovereignty form of
frceaeil, while Mr, Gilmer repudiates bath.
The Southern Democracy have voted for
this kind of a man, for party merely, with
out a hope of electing hun ; hut when they
have a chance to elect a Southern niun who
repudiates abolitionism in all its forms, they
reluse to embrace the opportunity ! The
question, which party will bo responsible if
a Black Republican should bo elected, is
no longer an open one.
In this connection, wo refer to the. fair
and truthful correspondence of tho Now
York Daily Hews, copied in another col
umn. Though the News is a National
cratic paper (snd its correspondent is
of the same stripe), it does justten to the
South Americana” and acquits them of
II responsibility for the present vt*ato of thu
controversy.
Dowdell fur I’rcNtdciit.
U a meeting of thu Democratic pnrty of
.ambers county, Ala., held nt Lafayette
tho 12th inst., IIon. Jamth F. Dowdell
s recommended ns u suitable man for the
Presidency. Mr. Dowdell was in lbe meet-
ng and reported tho regular resolutions,
ne of which demanded Congressional
roteciion of slavery in tho Territories;
uoihcr denounced Douglas; another He-
vatd, even to dissolution should lie hu
Iccted ; and another thanked Gov. Wise
nd Buchanan for their conduct in thu
Harper's Furry affair 1 Judge Richards and
1, Gilmer and Towlos, and others,
objected to some of ihe resolutions, but
they wero Adopted on division. Mr. Dow
dell offered another resolution, declaring
that "every Department of tho Federal
Government” had been “brought within
the control" of a Combination of Northern
States, effocted'hy their common opposition
to tho institution of .slavery," and demand
ing "an nrnordJraenl of tho organio law” to
restore tho equilibrium of power. This, too,
wua adopted, with some opposition.

1ST The Rome Southerner «V Advertiser
is at present rather aevere on Gov. Ueown,
considering that it supported' him in the
late canvnsa and didendcd him from charges
of resorting te tbo sets of the desstgogue
and aspiring to Federal offices, when pre
ferred by the Opposition, it now thinks
that he works through “tools,’' that ho has
had bnlh (lie United Stales Bsnate ami the
Presideney in view, and that the action of
the late Democratic State Convention leaves
him “no capital to trade opon.” "Poor
J#e”! wo thought that the Bute Road and
its profit* were hit capital, inalienable and
all-powerful. But it appears that Cobh and
Johnson arc mightier men than he ju Geor
gia, and that tlm financial glories of the
Governor are totally eclipsed by tho splendid
fiscal management of a Secretary who
found a plethoric Treasury and soon there
after made an exhibit of its bankruptcy !
The Southerner, noticing the action of the
(State Convention, »»ys:
"It is generally understood that Governor
Brown has aon.e presidential aspitatm"-

Senator* Ivcraou, IJI^lcr and Pugh.
From tho National Intelligencer.
In Srsatk, Dec. 12.—-Mr. Iverson, rising
to make a personal explanation, stated that
in his remarks made on a previous day, ex-
prcstivR of doubts with regard to the sound
ness of a portion of the Northern Dernoc-
tac'y, he did not allude to (heir views on the
conduct end acts of John Brown at Har
per’s Ferry, but to (Leir opinion* on the
Territorial question—a manor which ho
regarded of vital importance to tho South.
In pronouncing the Douglas Democracy
"corrupt and corruptible,” ho spoke in a
political, and not in a personal or moral
; hut, believing ns ho did in the right
ol Southern ■laveholdcrs to carry their prop-
tslavo* into the common Territories of
thn Union, and believing it to bo the duty
f CongrcHS to provide for the protection of
that property by law, ho could not accept
ny other docUtno na sound oil this subject.
Mr. Bigler regretted (ho remarks made
hy Mr. Iverson, nnd (fought that Senator
was exceedingly unjust to the Northern
Democracy, who not only had no sympathy
with Abolitionists, but were every whe^do-
nuuncii) at tbe North as "dough face*,”
hucnuBU of their alleged subserviency ^to
Houthern dictation, lt is truo that North
ern Democrat* had their own views with
regard to tho propriety of establishing sla
very in a Territory like Kansas, whoso »oll
and climate they thought, and bad a right
to think, were holier adapted to white than
slave labor; hut Northern Democrat* had
ever Blood hy the constitutional rights of the
South, and their zeal met with a poor re
ward in the*o auspicious cast upon them
without foundation. He presumed that he
bad himself spent hours, where Mr. Iverson
bad spent minutes, in enforcing the ju*t
rights ot the Houth. Thu Democrat* uf
tho North watched with interest lbs lan
guage held by Southern Senators on that
floor, nnd those Bunaloru could do much to
cripple tho energies of their political friends
in thut section.
Mr. Pugh aaid that he had no with to
take part in thi* diacuasiou at the present
time, hut ho desired to serve notice on Mr.
Iverson, and on all who concurred in thn
opiniou* of that .Senator, that ho would
take occasion at a fuiuro day to ascertain
cntegori'-ully their precise view* on tho ques
tion ut isBUc. Ho wanted to know how
many Southern Senators shared the opin
ion* uf Mr. Iverson with regard to tho duty
of Northern Democrats, snd ho wished to
know this before the meeting ol the Charles
ton Convention.
Mr. Iverson staled that ho would Do ready
to answer Mr. Pugh to his heart'* content
whenever it might please him to make his
intonogalories.
••Cousin John” J. Thrasher.
In tho Houao of Representatives, last
week, when the bill to amend tho charters
of the city of Atlanta and the town of War-
reulon waa under consideration, Mr. An
derson of Bibb offered an amnndinent to
exempt nun-rosidunls from tho provisions of
the Bill.
Mr. Thrasher of Fulton responded, (saya
tho correspondent of the Auguata ••Dis
patch”) urging (hat the gentleman repre
sented a Railroad interest, the President of
which is afraid he will be prevented from
stopping up the streets and forced to more
his depot. Other cities had just exactly lbe
provision* asked in thin cb^rter. When
Atlanta was aettfed the streets were laid out
in view of making a «mall town. They
now havo 12,000 inhabitants, and expect
■mm to havo 50,000 more, and they want
Ihe power to widen *troets and n*in«s datu-
ogos, Jo*t a* other cities and railroad* do.
Mr. Williams of Muscogee wa* opposed
.0 giving such extraordinary power* to small
rived on Ihe Island when tbe General left,
Lopez, not GaiTotod.
A correspondent writing from Marion
Alabama, to tbo Hempstead Courier, tells
th* following extraordinary story :
ISince the death of Sruor Francisco de
O'Gsrcia, a Cuban creole, worth totno four
millions of dollar*, aotno interesting devel
opments hove been innde. The deceaed
wa* thu intimate friond of Narcisso Lopez,
and was implicated in tho Binto difficulty.
The papers left hy the deceased prove that
the person gnrrotcd in 1851, and believed
by all the w*rld l» bo Nsrcisco Lopez, was
somebody else; that Lopez was not garret-
ed, but, through Ihe influence of ben or O’*
Garcia, a substitute was procured ; Lopez
was exoculed by proxy. Whether the au
thorities or General Concha connived at
this proceeding, we have no means of know
ing ; neither have wo any authentic inform
ation of tho *fate of Lopez. There wna a
■lory current, a few year* ago, in the town
of Linional, district of Matanxu*, and not fin
from Cardonas, that n stranger who inhabi
ted a house then belonging to U’Garcin,
bore a striking likeness to Lopez, in 1853
this stiangcr, who held intercourse with
• of U10 Cutli* audience, but the hisaers
expelled by the police, and ordor was
preserved during the delivery of the lecture.
The excitement now appears to be sub
siding. .
