Tilt: JPoat-Oflicce to be Closed t
The following article appeared in the Star
of thie city on Saturday laat. The state-
merits which it makes are ao extraordinary
that we have kept it on hand nearly a week
before copying it, in the aiprctation that it
would be denied by one of the pepera aup*
porting Beeckinridge. Zlot no auch denial
baa yet appeared, end we must construe si
lence aa an admission of their truth t
Oittijto Hr.ertaATK — For aome days
part lire Yancey diatinionista of this city
have shown greet activity, and some of the
mure desperate have made various a*««r-
mins aa to what ahould bn done with such
and auch men, evidently intended io intim-
idutu the opponents of ibnr nefarious de-
eigna on the governniem. Mince the late re-
lurna from I’ennaylvania, Ohio and Indians,
have corns hi, ahowing the apparent power
of ilieir organization in those Slates to de*
feat,Douglas and secure the object nearest
their heart—the success ol Lincoln—they
are hemming holder and mors reckless ;
and they are now beginning to aeaert that
it should be no crime in ihe South to ahoot
down a man who would accept office under
1 Im (.1 their party, high in au
thority, has so lowered digntfird Senatorial
honors, as to assert that the first thing done
by the Legislature when it is ascertained
shut Lincoln it elected, should he tops
an Act making it no crime in Georgia
shoot down, or burn the dwelling ol, a m
who would accept offico in thiu State under
Lincoln—and special reference was made to
me poat office. This ia what wn call bring
ing one’s pent up wrath in a head. What !
ihe Federal Judges to be driven Irom their
seats, its officers intimidated, the postal
system stopped, because men could be
found loyal enough to fill these posta under
an ttdniin.stration they ere thems-lvea aid
ing and abetting to power, and whom they
dsi y assert they would preler to Douglas.
Truly their wrath must be budding to near
full bloom. Tills ia morality taught Irom a
high source. When a man whom (.oorgia
has placed high in authotity, ia found ilia
ndvncaie of auch treason, what muat be ex-
pccted of Ihe lower grades of their party!?
Truly are we last merging upon the time
mat must “try men’s souls."
We trust our worthy post master in thia
city, who, it waa asserted, paid a valuable
consideration for the office, ia not Included,
and that in the action ol the Legislature on
the subject, he will ho excepted Irom ite
penalties.
Have our people seriously reflected or
the consequences of permitting the Brack
intidge Disunion party of (Isorgia to g°
tinrcbukrd the polls ! Ais Ihay content
to ero tha poetofficee wlnaed on the 4th of
March next, with all the incon*«nieneea
ar.d losses which must attend this rmbargo
of intelligence 1 Of course, we do not be-
lievo the Legislature of Georgia will do any
such silly and bstbaroua thing aa to legalize
tha shooting of a man who might attempt
to open tlio poaioffiua under Lincoln, or the
burning of his house. Twenty thousand
popular majority for Urtckinridgo in the
Mtste would not induce the Legislature to
do anything ao savage and tmetieisiisn.
IJul we tin believe that a bars majority for
UrrckinthJg* will be couetruod by the leg
islature as a license to commence proceed
Inga contemplating a dissolution of the
Union upon the event cf Lincoln's inaugu-
ation, and that it will in aumo way encour
age the revolutionists to close the postofikes
in their respective localities. And we can
not perceive wherein "our worthy post
master in Ih’s city" will stand in any more
favored position then any other cflici-bolder
under Lincoln. It it the post«fiico tytlem
and ihe official connection with Lincoln's
government lint will bo proscribed, and
"exceptions” cannot bs made in favor ol
individuals or localities} nor can "days of
grace" bo allowed, for tha veriest simpleton
must see that if office ie held under Lincoln
ior one month, the considerations justifying
it will demand its rilenaion ona month or
one year longer. We therefore entreat the
people of (Jeorgia to contemplate this issue
in lime, to follow it out to its inevitable re
sult#, and to '-head off" tha movement by
an overwhelming and decisive rebuke of
the disuniouists at the ballot-box.

To make tbie little effiir the more intel

What are we doing at Hornet
We regret to have to make the confession
chat here in Columbus the friends of Bell
end Everett appear to be altogether inac
tive, and almost entirely outside of the
political excitement that is arousing the
enemies of all parlies in clhet section*.
That they are aware of the vast importance
of Ihe contest, end convinced of tb*
redness of the principles and soondnsaa of
the candidates supported by them, is mani
fested by the numbers and enthusiasm of
their gatherings. But, while the Breckin-
ri 'ge party is working a# if it# ealvajion
depended on the result in this county alone,
wa regret to say that our friends are doing
nothing absolutely nothing.' Why
ibis f We aro aware that the contingency
of an election of Presidential Electors hy
the Legislature^ foupled with the certainty
that in tbabo*** Breckinridge Electors will
he cltosorf, nangs like a hope-destroy ing
incubus upon tpany of our party, paralyzing
their efforts and damping (hair order—that
they era disposed to give up Georgia in utter
despair of obtaining a clear popular major
ity over both Breckinridge and Douglas-
We must confess that to our own appre
hension the prospect of so doing does not
appear very bright. But, permit ue to ask
out desponding friends, what means all the
vigilance and exertion put forth hy their
opponents! It they are ao very turt of
carrying the Stale, either by the popular
by the Legislature, why do they
work ao energetically 1 Why-aro they
securing every "fliafing” vole, and having
almost daily or nightly gatherings 1 Thr re
be butNrne of two reasons aa'igned for
it: Either they do not feel sure of the Hist*,
they attach very great importance to ilia
carrying of thia county for Breckinridge.
And it seems to us that, let either «f these
considerations be their incenlivo, qur friends
ahould meat them by corresponding axer-
If they are not sure of the Biale,
and there is u chance f >r us to carry it, we
owe it to our brethren of other sections to
do our part towards the attainment of so
important and desirable an end. And we
ought to lake encouragement from tho evi
dent alarm which the Brrckites display in
reference to this issue. Why ere ail their
speakers evtr on the Mump! Why has it
been found necessary to recall Secretary
Cobb again from his pressing duties
Washington to canvass Georgia ? Why
Toombs, Iverson, the whole Democratic
Congressional delegation, and every county
Democratic orator, betides their Electors,
ao indefatigable and zevlous ! Their zeal
argues doubt, apprehentiun, fear i and so
long as they manifest this anxiety, w# ntsy
rely upon it that they do not consider the
Htat# "hooked" for Breckinridge, notwith
standing the flocking of thu contingent
tribunal that may have to decide (ho ques
tion. But if they are making this rally
•rid effort for the purpose- of carrying Mus
cogee county, di-bining that un object woitlt
such exertion and expense, surely the pres
ervation of the county from their grasp ia
squally important to our friends. W# and
they well know that for aome time past, so
much more perfect has been the Democratic
organization and ao much harder havo they
labored, an Opposition majority of me hun
dred and fifty voles in the county can
hardly avail us againal their tactics. It is
tlu-ir bosst that in the last election they
carried Ihe county with an Opposition ms-
joiily agsinat them of 150 voles! Do our
friends intend to Ic-t them repent this game ?
They brag now that they have all the work
ing men on their aide, and they expert by
tho potency of Work, and hy tho exercise of
sleepless vigilance while we are inactive, to
steal another march on us and sacure a
majority in Muscogee for Breckinridge.
Do tha friends ol Ball and Everett intend
lo permit it ? Have they given up the con
test so far as effort ia concerned ! We yet
trust not, though wo cannot indicate any
reliable basis for auch a hope. We exhort
our friends la look this question squarely
in the face, and to decide now whether they
will make a fight for tho county or surren
der it without an effort to their opponents.
Proposed l-’iialon Iu Georgia.
We direct the attention of our readers to
tha proposition which we cop^to-day from
the Atlanta American. It is made in a
spirit of patriotism and concession, and do-
ssrvea a caltu and respectful consideration.
Our readers are aware that we are ready
to ro-operate with any parly in Georgia for
the purpoae of preventing tha choice of
Preaidenlial Electors by a stocked Legisla
ture. W# regard an election made in that
way as a virtual repudiation of the principle
of popular sovereignty—as a clear evasion
of tha intention that tho people ahould,
either directly or hy the choice of represent
atives with a view to that matter alone,
have tb* election cf a President and Vic*
President. Mo believing, and being con
vinced that it ia the intention of every
Brerkinridg* member of the Legi.lalure lo
vote for Elector* fiirndly to his own favor
ite, no matter how the plurality in the Stale
or In his own county may vote, wa are for
defeating this scheme of outrsgo upon pop
ular right*. Therefor* we second the mo
tion of the American, and recommend it to
the support of all men who reverence the
great principle of popular ■ttpreroary upon
which our institutions are based. We
would as soon throw up "heads or tail#" tor
the Electors, or leave their selection to tfie
King of Dshontey, at to submit it lo a
Legislature chosen without the slightest
apprehension that it would have to make
tha choice.

why did he do it ? I answer, that ho might voted sga
\Vt
secure the principle of both Davis and
//mien's resolution in Mr. Houle's resolu
tion, offered July 31, 1850. On the 31st of
Jujy, J850, John //ell voted for Norti*’ mo-
non to s'nke out the //’rtien amendment.
On the same day, and after he had voted
tor Norris' motion, he vi ted for Ihe Huul*
resolution, which reads thus: "That the
Tsrrilnrial Legislature rhsll have no power
in any manner to interfere with tha estab
lishment cr the abolition cf slavery within
the limits of the smd Territory, but ehalt
provido for the protection of such properly
there aa ia rrcogQ.zcd by tha Constitution
of the United Hlatrs." I have now fur
nished you with a vole of John HrII tint
endorsed fully and clearly the Da*is-Ber-
visit resolution. I wish you to note the
peculiar wording of Houle's resolution.
Mr. Evens says th* word "prohibiting"
in Bertien’a resolution did not and would
not secure us against unfriendly or indi-
ruct Territorial legislation. I will ask Mm
this: Suppose you were to prohibit the
•I*vr of a neighbor from going into yoor
yard, and ho w- r* lo get over your fence
and not through your gate, would his get
ting into your y«rJ over th* fence exclude
yen from exercising the right to drive him
out ? Il your prohibition meant anything,
it meant lo exclude Inrn from going into
ur yerd in any way or manner. Ho with

use this comparison to illustrate th* ridic-
lousnrss of Mr. Evans’ position and lo
!tuw how he quibbles.
Mr. Evans liuly says John Bell voted
u'aiii-l the Clayton Compromise bill, and
i did Toombs and Htephrni, and both of
.esc gentlemen said they would never vole
imllicr dollar for the Mexican war unless
i- Me tie an laws abolishing slavery were
-rej'-alrd—for, said they, such is the diver-
■ sityr of opinion as lo the effect of these laws
named j that we intend not to lists the rights of
iM- Houth in doubt—they must he repealeJ.
M ere Hlsphens and Toombs, who Voted
with John Bell on that occasion, tru* and
loyal to the Houth? History proves that
John IJ. II ia a pure, safe and sound man
for the Houth. If ha did not advance the
Welfare of th# fj- uth in 1836 by voting with
Glasscock of Ga., then the people of Geor
gia were fools anil not capable of knowing
the welfare i f th* South—for they gnve
Glasscock 42,000 out of r.2,000 votes for
his vot# giv.it with John Bell's on the sub
ject of aboil'ion petitions in 183G. If Mr.
EvaLi ia to bo believed and faitly interpre
ted, that Glas-cock and Ball acted in 1 BUG
with freest ibr#, then of course every man
who v..|ad for Glasscock in 1836 was a free-
soiler.7
