O Father ! let me come to thae, At the lio.y summer sunset time— Amid this smile of heaven be, When I quit this fair but transient clime !

OR,—THE WIFE’S NIGHTCAP, By “Nix in der Voids.” ‘'G Mr* , i ,vho doesn’t live more than a mile from the postoffice in this city, met some “Northern friends with Southern principles,” the other evening, and in ex tend in g to ihom the hospitalities of the “Crescent City,” visited so many of our princely Saloons and “Marble Halls,” im bibing spiritual consolation as they jour neyed, that when he left them at their ho tel at the midnight hour, he felt, decided dedly felt,that he had “a brick in his hat.’ Now, lie has a wife, an amiable, accom plished and beautiful lady, who loves him devotedly, and finds but one fault with him. That is, his too frequent visits to the palaces where those “bricks” are obtained. After leaving his friends. Mi paus ed a moment, took his bearings, and hav ing shaped a course, on the principle that continual angles meet, made sail for home. In due course of time, he arrived there, and was not verj much astonished, but rather frightened, to find his worthy lady silting up for him. She always does. She smiled when he came in That also, she always does. “How are you,dear E?” she said—“you staid out so late,that I feared you had been taken sick.” *‘Hic—aint sick wife—b-but don’t you th-think I’m—l’m a little t-tight?” “A very little, perhaps, my dear—but that is nothing—you have so many friends as you say, you must join them in a glass once in awhile!” ‘•Wife, you’re too good —th-the truth is, I’m d—d d-drunk!’* “Oh, no indeed, my dear—l’m sure that even another glass wouldn’t hurt you. Now suppose you take a glass of Scotch ale with me, just as a nightcap, dear!” “You are too kind d-dear, by hail —1 know I’m drunk!” “Oh no—only a julep too much lore— that’s all!” ..Yes—juleps—McMasters makes such stifTuns!” ..Well—take a glass of ale at any rate, it can’t hurt vou, dear; 1 want one before 1 retire!” The lady hastened to open a bottle, and as she placeJ two tumblers before her on the side board, she put in one a very pow erful emetic. Filling the glasses with the foaming ale, she handed one to her husband. . Suspicion came cloudily uponhis mind. She never before had been so kind when he was drunk. He looked at the glass,— raised it to his lips,—then hesitated. “Dear, w-won’t you just taste mine, ta make it sweet —sweeter!” said he. ‘‘Certainly, love!” replied the lady, tak ing a mouthful, which she was careful not to swallow. Suspicion vanished, and so did the ale, emetic and all, down the throat of the sat isfied husband. After spitting out the taste the lady finished her glass, but seemed in no hurry to retire. She fixed a foot tub of water before an easy chair, as if she in tended to bathe her beautiful little feet therein. But small as were those feat there was not water enough in the tub to cover them. The husband began to feel, and he wanted to retire, ‘ “Wait only a few minutes, dear, said his loving spouse; “I want to read t e news in this afternoon s Delta. I found it in your pocket.” , , A. few minutes more elapsed, and tne* (finite —and then, —oh ye gods and Dan o’ thi lake, what a time. The husband was pla ced in the easy chair. He began to un derstand why the tub was there; he soon learned what ailed him. Suffice it to say, that when arose from that chair, the brick had left his hat. It hasn’t been there since. He says he’ll never drink another juiep; he can’t hear Scotch ale, but he is death on lemonade! He loves his wife better than ever. Reader, this is a truthful story. Profit by its moral. WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 18, 1851. CONCEPT Madame Durang and Signor Novelli, from the Italian Opera, New York, intend giving a concert at Temperance Hall on Wednesday evening next. We have seen several flattering notices of their perform ances, and think that our citizens will en oy a treat in hearing them. We give be low, some remarks made by a gentleman in -a. private letter to vis, in regard to them: “I had the pleasure of listening to one of their concerts last evening, and must say, I was much pleased. The Madame, has not only a pre-possessing appearance, but has a sweet voice, with large compass. * * • * * * * Signor Novelli lias a rich, powerful voice.” For particulars see advertisement in an other column. THE QUESTION OF THE DAY. Unionism is a garb worn by treason in all sections ofthe country to cloak its self fishness and wickedness. Last year when a great wrong was put upon the slave States, the men who bowed to it or aided in it, forthwith raised the cry of disunion for the purpose of hiding their own turpitude from the gaze of the people. It was a trick, obvious to the least cunning among hem. It was the old cry of “stop thief” successfully set up by the rogue to favor t his own escape. Well, it did succeed for the time. Mankind seldom think clearly or act wisely, under intense excitement, and in the perils of the memorable year 1850, the people of the South (S Carolina excepted) uhwiselysubmitti and to the “ad justment” of Mr Clay, and postponed pres ent danger to a more fearful meeting of it tuture. It was but a postponement ‘ lor the blind can now see that nothing was permanently settled by the so called ‘ peace measures. It is true the cloud then overhanging and about to burst, tempora rily disappeared. Fanaticism was obliged to be content with the victories won on ; that issue. But the great spring of thej evil was not reached. The seeds of tlriP disease were not eradicated —the sting was not plucked from abolitionism, and the anti-slavery party is to day higher in hope, stronger in confidence, and in its belief, nearer to its aim of final emancipation than it ever was. It won its best victory in the “adjustment.” But there is a great question growing out ofthe legislation of ; 1850, and now up, between the Southern ; Rights and Federal Union parties. It is j a question for the people to decide. It is ; this: without inquiring whether the “ad justment” was a good or a bad one for the South—whether it was honorable or dis honorable ; gave her a part or all of her : rights— the main enquiry still is, was it a permanent and final pacification of the ques tion? If it Was, then the submission party was right in urging the people to be satis fied with it—and the people were right in consenting to an arrangement that at once settled a great sectional dispute, gave peace to the country and saved from over throw a government under which they had long lived. But, if on the other hand, the pacifica tion was only apparent —if, instead of ex tirpating the moral sore, the adjustment Doctors only tampered with it; if instead of an entire cessation of that agitation by which the South has been so unjustly an noyed and harrassed, and its peace and safety put in jeopardy—if in place ofthis, the adjustment was only a sop thrown to the abolition Cerberus to stay his presen appetite—if, in a word, there dees really exist an irreconcilable moral antagonism between the Hireling and the Slave States, concerning slavery—an antagonism that sooner or later, must come to a crisis; hen the Southern Rights Party was right n resisting the compromise and advising a prompt and manly refusal to submit to it. For, if the question which the North has presumed to make with the South—to wit: that slavery is a sin and a stain on the National escutcheon and must be abol ished, and that question has to be met, it is plain that it is better to meet it at the threshold when the South is strong, and mav be united, than to procrastinate it un til the anti-slavery power swells in Con gress, until thev are able to amend the Constitution and sweep it away, and until abolition creeps into the South itself. It is this view of the question that has shaped our own course, which so many persons have characterized as ultra and violent. — It is a fixed belief that this Government has got to be an abolition Government, and that Southern Institutions could not exist lor any length of time in it, that has converted the writer from a unionist into a disunionist. No man had a stronger at tachment to the union. We were brough up as it were, on its lap, and almost at the feet of Gamaliel. But we loved Rome more than Caesar, and when we became bitterly convinced that the union was hos tile to the South, that we and our children and our countrymen, their lives and pro perly were not safe in it; when we saw too, that our section was the aggrieved and not aggressing party—that it was per secuted for an institution which British and Yankee cupidity fixed on our fathers, and that we were to be harrassed, condemned and ostracised in this life and sent to eter nal perdition in the next for the crime of being born in a slave country, we took our stand on the side of home, country and justice, and although we made no Hamii car oaths, we made a resolution to strike, and to urge our countrymen to strike for deliverance and liberty. The people of Georgia have this to de termine in the October elections, and it is a question that no man’s patriotism can be excused from deciding. Is anti-slavery extinqt at the North, and is the South se cure in its peace, and possession of its “THE UNION OF THE STATES AND THE iOVJKHXIGITT OF THE STATES.” COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, slave property 1 We appeal to facts to show that the negative is the true answer to these questions—that the snake is “scotched and not killed,” and th at unies the people of the South prepare for an early and determined resistance to the en croachments of abolition, having control of, and acting through the Federal Gov ernment, that that Government will soon have power to destroy the institutions of the South and along with them the happi ness and prosperity of its people. A UNION MAN. The sentiments of a Northern Union Man may be read in the following extracts from one of the Hon Charles Sumner's speeches. Mr Sumner is not a miserable, ignorant fanatic ; he is neither a Garrison, a Douglass or one of the tribe of Female Abbys, who disgrace their sex and their humanity by their follies—hut he is the U States Senator elect ftom Massachusetts, and tm<; oft lie iiiwt enlightened and tal ented men ofthat State. Hear his greet ing to his Southern Brethren : “Into Massachusetts he (the slave own er) shall not come * * * * The contempt, the indignation, the abhor rence Os the community, shall te our wea pons of offence. Wherever he moves,he shall find no house to receive him—nota ble spread to nourish him —no welcome to cheer him—the dismal lot of the Roman exile shall be his. He shall be a wanderer without roof, fire or water. Men shall point at him in the streets, and on the high ways. The cities, towns and villages shall refuse t-> receive the they shall vomit himjforth, never again tej disturb tbe repose of our community.” Illness of the Hon A H Stephens.— The Augusta Constitutionalist the 13th inst. says: The painful intelligence reach ed this city yesterday, that the Hon A H Stephens lies critically ill of Chlonic Di arrhsea.at his residence in Crawfordville. Hon W. C. Dawson. —The numerous friends of Senator Dawson will regret to learn that he had a legfractured onttie 10th inst. The following letter from 4 gentle man at Greensboro furnishes the particu lars : [ Sav Georgian. Greensboro, June 101i,’51. Dear Sir—The Hon W C Dawsoi, while at his plantation this morning, hadliis left leg badly fractured above the which 1 will doubtless confine him to bis rioni for | weeks. He had just dismounted aid tie 1 his horse to the top rail of the tencq when the horse became frightened and rjn with the rail fastened to the bridle, and ii pass ing Judge D. was struck by the raillwhich j caused the injury. He is now suf'ering . much, though doing very well. Truly yours, &c. in haste. ’ How to Stop a Paper. —The onlyffion est way to stop a paper, when not wanted, is to pay into the hands ofthe post mister whatever you owe for it, if only foltwo numbers, and see that the post mister writes an order to have the same stopped. There is* no use in sending to the jub lishers letters and papers, with postage in paid. If you fail to do this, do not cjm- i plain if the publishers continue to sendlhe paper. An Old Printer. —A. W Scowelf, a printer, 80 years of agd —the oldest in pie United Stales, commenced his apprentle ship ol seven years in the King’s Printhg Office. London,'in 1774, sixty-eight yelrs ago. The Boston Mail says: He was a soldier under Sir John Mooi\. at Corunna, in Spain in 1809, ft received a ball in his right arnr Hr present at the burial of Sir John, and r<§ members tne minute,’ particulcrs of till, seem. He was’'a Iso with the Duke tj Wellington through his whole campaign', and lost an ancle bone by a grape shot i* : the battle oi Waterloo. This veteran typo, after all this hard service, is one ol the swiftest and best compositors in Bos j ton. The Camilla Costume. — The, Boston Journal recommends that the new style of dress adopted by some ladies be called “The Camilla Costume.” Camilla, as we read in ancient mythology, was one ol liie"messengers of Diana, accustomed to the chase and to war. She was noted for her fleetness of foot, aud of cour.se must have eschewed the street-sweeping gar meats in vogue at the present day. The Way it Works. —We give two extracts, one from a Southern, the other j from a Northern Compromise print. Tney serve to show how well the Fu j gitive slave law works for the two sections of the party. It makes capital for both, thus: Fugitive Case in Chicago. — We learn from the Chicago Tribune of ihe 3d that there was a fugitive case pending before the United States commissioner in that city. Large crowds had assembled, and the mar shal had notified two miiitarv cm par.ies to be in rradi'-ess to resist violence,should any be attempted.—[ Louisville Journal. That is its Southern aspect. Here is its Northern: Telegraphic Despatch in Boston Courier. The fugitive slave case at Chicago ichich has caused much excitement in that city , has been decided in favor of the negro, for want of proof of identity. Would’nt it be a sin to “agitate” about or repeal ‘such an effective law?’—[ South ern Press. Some ot the Indian tribes of the West have contributed a block for the Washington monument, which will bear the following inscription. THIS STEP the red man gives to the pals. face to build him a paih in a better HUNTING GROUND. Horace G eely compares the sun, as seen in England, to “a boiled turnip.” Horace had better get anew pair ofboots, and don a clean shirt, before he attempts to criticise the appearance of old Sol. A newsboy was heard to say that he had given up selling newspapers', and had gone into the mesmerizing business. “I get five dollars per week,” said ‘‘for playing.” “Playing what?” asked one of his com rades. “Possum!” replied the bov. • A down east editor advises his read ers, if they wish to get teeth inserted, to go and steal fruit where a watch doe is on guard. ty Extract from a letter from a well in formed planter in Burke county, dated 9th June; “The crops of Corn and Cotton are both very poor for the time of the year. We have had six weeks drought, and every thing is almost ruined in this part of the country. Corn and Cotton small and of a sickly appearance, and the stands are worre than I have’ever seen.” FRIDAY MORNING JUNE 20, 1851 CONCERT. The Concert of Madame Durano on V\ ednesday evening was attended by a small, but musical audieuce, who were amply repaid for being present. This la dy is a favorite at the Astor Place opera House, New York, and, in cur opinion, deservedly, since we have heard her. Her voice is a full and rich contralto, admirable in the lower notes winch belong to the compass of that style of voice. Heropen ingduet with Signor Novelli, took the au ditory with surprise and delight. YVe do not think we have ever heard a second to a powerful first so admirably sustained.— It another concert should be given, which we hope will be the ’case, we bespeak a repetition of that Duo from La Favorita. Signor Novelli has a deep, full bass, at a ins Slykcis tiaiin. 1 |f!S ballad from the “ BohemWGirl,” and •* As I view these scenes so charming,” the celebrated Cavatina from Sonambula, were extreme ly well received by the audience. Vlr. Pease who assists these artists, is an amateur. He \Vas suffering from a cold, and evidently was not himself during the evening. W 7 e repeat the hope, that the concert may be repeated, and the tickets reduced to half a dollar, a price to which our citi zens are accustomed. If this is done, we assure our citizens a musical treat. We want no better evidence of the frightwhichhas seized uponthe Unionsub mission party, at the prospect of being call ed to the bar of the people to answer for their betrayals and surrenders to the enemies of the South; than the hysterical desperation with which its writers are attempting to twist, distort and falsify the occurrences at, and the principles o.f, the lata Southern Rights convention. Having been a mem ber of that convention, aclose observer of, and a participator in, all its acts, senti ments and opinions, wehave been amazed at the fecundity of submission ingenuity, in not only misrepresenting what did take i place, but in inventing a thousand and one falsehoods about what was never dreamed of in the body. Now we do not expect candor or hon ’ esty from a party of politicians who have j deliberately sacrificed the rights, honor and safety of a State to the lusts of party power and patronage ; and who have avail ed themselves of the talismanic word of “Union ’ and the fears of the timid, the weak and the wealthy, dreading change, to induce a majority of the people in an hour of sore trial, and of a panic mischiev ously heightened, to take a course which has fearfully augmented the already great danger to which their honor, liberties and property were exposed. Georgia ought never to have submitted to the compro mise while she owned a son, man or boy, to resist it. Stains on the honor of States are deep and almost indelible. Submis. sion to wrong is as impolitic as danger ous : while resistance is a patriotic duty that can never be safely pretermnted.— What, we a-k, is thesecurity of all nations and people 1 Not the forbearance of the evil-doers of the Nations—but the strong arm, and the knowledge that it willbe used to resist aggression. The most enlighten ed Nations—nay, Christian nations, are only restrained from the commercial plun der of the wofld by the certainty of an ap peal to that last resort—force. If then, a readiness to resist wrong, and a jealous jspiiit of liberty, quick to detect encroach ment, have in all ages been the safeguards of every people, shall we of the South, 1 urn from this world-wide experience, and that in dealing with the most heart less, blood-thirsty and accursed fanaticism : be earth has ever seen, it is safe to make toncessions, to compromiseawaj right af |-r right, and to trust to the forbearance of §e hellish Horse leech in the future 1 Who dies not see the madness, the horrible fol lj of thus tampering with the lives and happiness of the favored people who now iibabit the South, and the generation to cine after them 1 Yet this has been the pty'cy of the Submission Party of Georgia. Tb;y have cut off one limb of liberty and giitan it to a blood-lapping monster of fa na cism, on the promise —not of himself, folithe abolitionists repudiate the compro —but of a third party, that when he j get hungry he will not come back and i demand another and another, until piece meal, the victim is swallowed up. We saviit was criminal folly to have consent ed the compromise, if it had been made in gpod faith, and with a power on the other side, able to keep it. But, when we see that the abolitionists rejected with scorn the only feature of it that pretended to be favorable tu the South ; when we see the Northern members of Congress skulk ing from the vote on the Fugitive Bill, and allowing it to be passed bySouthern mem bers; when we see the growing influence and power of these Fanatics; an aboli tionist in the Presidential chair, but now trying to cover up the burning record of his whole public life of fanaticism in order to gulllthe South, and save the Union so necessity to him and his Northern coun trymen, who have by their base perfidy, me tiioiss, & heartless disregard of South ern Rijlhts and safety forfeited all claim to its ah antages ; and when we see, that so far |f) m settling the question and giv ing thiliromised security to the South and its proft r ty, the internal agitation is still kepk ifc-we lose all patience with the men w 10 have seduced the people into this de< i and dark defile of danger, dis honor od disgrace. Cowardice is the very be ; apology, in our humble judge ment, f ■ submitting to the compromise ; because t man might have the merit of loving fcerty and his country, but yet not havf he courage to assert and defend them. ht deprived of the plea of cow ardice, i i submissionists of 1850 stand nakedly ttainted, either of treason, or of acallosi of heart and mind iqcapable of Jeeling ; ove of country, and therefore, wholly cusable in not resenting the wounds flicted on it. Such i the men who are filling *ll the channel rs communication imhnpopular TUESDAY, JUNE 24, 1851. mind with denunciations of those at the South who have done—whatl Nothing more than to claim the right of the people of the South to live in quietness and peace on that portion of God’s earth where on their lot has been cast—nothing but what every candid man admits they are entitled to—justice and equality ot rights, theirs by birth-right, and re-assured to them by the constitution. This is all the South has ever demanded; and yet when ! the poor privilege of being let alons, and relieved from insuit, injury and wrong are contemptuously denied to her, there is a whining and canting party singing with deep nasal hypocrisy, “union, union, oh, this glorious union.” The Peopie will have todecide between these Parties; and with it the great ques tion, whether they, will demand their rights and have them—be freemen or slaves. THE KMQUliiaa, We have unwaongly “riled” up the Editor of the Enquirer, by modestly ask ing for an explanation oi his “backward ness in coming forward” to hoist the Con stitutional Submission Candidate to his column-head. Asa rule, “where there is smoke there is fire”—we now see both fire and smoke. Toe touchiness of our neighbor is symptomatic. It seems he was waiting to learn that Mr. Cobb would etc. cept before ne “pitched in” to Ips support! Oh ho! Is there any doubt on that point? Is Cobb squeamish as well as the Editor? There seems to be a ver*r general fit of sick stomach coming over the the whole Union party. We are glad ot it. A good emetic would relieve them of a vast deal of ‘“perilous stuff” which has been for some time working wild with their South ern constitutions. And so our neighbor has told us once before that he is the editor of his own pa per and that advice as howto conduct it, is not needed. Short as pie-crust! But, bless you heart, neighbor, you do not think ? we hope, that we are ambitious to share any of the honors of your performances in that line. No sir. If we had the manage ment of the concern and could not blow anew spirit under its “ribs of death,’ we should forthwith pack up type and press and remove it to a more congenial atmosphere, north of the Potomac, and then re-instate into the editorial chair, its pres ent conductors. But while the “Enquirer” does not hoist Cobb’s name, he is not slow in puffing hiun, after we had called his attention to the omission. We wish somebody would loan us a hie of the “Enquirer” two years back, in order that we might compare the Editor’s then opinion with his present ad miration of the Hon. Howell Cobb. The contrast would be almost as great as be tween the Enquirer’s rampant disunionism in the days of nullification, with his pres ent overflowing veneration for the “Gov ernment of our fathers” and the “glarious union.” The “Enquirer” is not alone in his glorification of Mr. Cobb’s unionism. The Albany Journal, the special organ of the higher law Senator Seward “hat/s” the expected election of Mr. Cobb, with as much gusto as the Enquirer. It will be a “grateful triumph” to the Free Sob ers arid the “friends of the union every where.” Hear it: “Hence, if we understand ihe position of things, the attachment of lhe citizens of Georgia to the Union is lobe tested at the approaching election And in such a contest all good citizens—all true men —all who cherish the principles and inherit the patriotism ol the lathers of the republic, and he framers of the Constitution, will ardently de sire the success of the Union ticket- The election of Rowell Cobb under such circumstances, will be hailed by the friends of the Union everywhere, as a grateful triumph- We It now not whether, as the Argus anticipates, I fidelity to the Union is to be the question on which the approaching elections,‘State and National,’ aro to turn. We do not believe however, that t:ie mad ness and folly of South Carolina, or the efforts of ‘compromise’aspirants lor the Presidency, will suc ceed in organizing disunion party out of thtee or four slave States. But we shall see. The Whigs of this State, whenever a question of Union nr Disunion is presented, will “Frown indig nantly” upon all who attempt to strike a star or tear a stripe from the American flag.’’ A Georgia submissionisi could not blow a louder and merrier blast of unionism than this. We ptay our neighbor not to pretermit his efforts to elect Cobb and give this “grateful triumph” to Mr. Seward’s organ. But we are asked, where we are in the approaching canvass? We answer, just exactly opposite to the Columbus Enquir er and the Albany Journal. We are a gainst Cobb, because he was a chief archi tect in the imfamous compromise—we are for McDonald, because he opposed it. We are battling against that “masked bat tery” under cover of which the rights of the South are assailed ; while the Enquir er tsworking its guns in full play on these rights. We are for the truth, and for let ting the people know it; while the En quirer is for informing them of nothing ex cept that the Union is in danger, and the defenders of Southern Rights are a worse pack of rascals than the abolitionists. And we are after another m ire despairing object than all these, and that is, to keep the En quirer and its party leaders, from backing out from the Georgia Platform of their own making. If we lire through this canvass and pre serve our health, we will show our ne gh- bor “where we stand;” and where he does not stand. We should not be surprised, if after October a greater shock will be felt in the Enquirer’s sanctum than was expe rienced the other day, when the chimney of the Shylock building came toppling down, on and through the roof o< that of fice. We stated the other day final the Democ racy of the Key StenlS had signalized their devotion to the consolation by putting in nomination for Governed, Col Biglee, who in 1849 voted for the atotifof the Legislature of that State, intended to cripple the op'er’ | NUMBER 27 ation of the fugitive clause of the consti tution, withinthatState. Since then the pro ceedings and resolutions of that body have come to hand. Justice and truth require us to state that they aro of a very satis factory and conservative character on the slavery question. Col Bigler has become a convert, and according to the New York Tribune, stands on the ground of zealous adherence to the compromise. This is the very best that any man or party in the North can do for the South. The follow ing are the resolutions on the slavery ques tion, and they were adopted by acclama tion : Resolved. That the fith Section ofthe Act of the Legislature of Pennsylvania, pass ed on the 3d March, 1849, denying, under a severe penalty, the use of our State jails for the detention of fugitive slaves while waiting their trials, ought to be expunged from our Statute Books, both because it in terposes obstacles, b v means of State leg islation, to tt.e execution of th : provisions ofthe Constitution ofthe U. States, and be cause itisa virtual disregard of the princi ples ofthe compromise, and is calculated seriously to endanger the existence of tile Union. Resolved, That the Democratic party of the Slate of Pennsylvania are true to the Union, to the Constitution and the laws, and will faithfully observe * and execute, so lar as in them lies, all the measures of Compromise adopted by the late Congress for the purpose of settling the question arising out of domestic slavery, ami this not only from a sense of duty us good citi zens of the republic, but also from the kindest fraternal feelings, which they en tertain toward their brethren ol the slave holding States. The last session of the Legislature, by Democratic votes, passed an act expung ing the section here referred to. The bill failed because the Freesoil Whig Govern or would not sign it. The other party (Whig) in Pennsylva nia, have taken exactly the opposite tack. Their convention re-nominated Johnson, Freesoiler, for Governor, and for the Pre sidency, Gen Scott, and proclaimed the Whig party opposed to the extension of slavery. The N Y Tribune very fairly states the issue in Pennsylvania as follows : “ The predominant issue relates to the Fugitive Slave Law. The opposition can didate, Col Win Bigler of Clearfield, stands on the ground of zealous adherence to the entire compromise policy, ant. the con vention which nominated him passed re solutions ot the most decided stamp in its favor. They also explicitly condemned the State law passed March 3, 1849, forbidding the use of the Commonwealth to the slave catchers ofthe Federal Government. The Whig convention and i ts candidate Gov Johnson, stand upon ground perfect ly antagonistic to this. They are out and ouffor Freesoil and against the present mode of slave catching. The Governor himself, at the last session, refused his ap proval to a bill. repealing the law above mentioned with reference to the jails.— Pennsylvania, they say, having long since abolished slavery herself, is hostile to its extension or to any .nterference with it by her State officers.” ALABAMA The canvass in Alabama has opened with great spirit. The Southern Rights Partyds thoroughly aroused, and has buck led on its armor with an invincible resolu tion to do its whole duty in the great cause and crisis of Southern Rights. In the 2d District (nearest to usj Col. John Cochran, has been nominated as the champion of Southern Rights. The ban ner is in worthy hands. Eloquence, spirit, energy, a thorough conviction and a deep devotion to his caus? stamp their impress upon him as the man to rally the true friends of freedom and country to the strug gle The columns of the Eufaula “Spirit of the South” glow with able and spirited editorials and pour a steady stream of dead ly fire into the weak flanks of submission. Neverhad champions a better cause. Ar gument, feeling, love of country, truth and honor are all on their side to stir up the deepest emotions of the heart and evoke the finest efforts of tho intellect and fancy. While on the other hand the feeble waij of “union” “union” and the squeaking cry of danger, are the only shields on which to meet the shock of the rushing hosts, who are on horse, with vizor down and lance in rest, to do battle for right, truth, honor an and country. In the .Mobile District the Hon John Bragg, brother to the Captain Bragg, of “grape” memory is the Southern Rights candidate against C. C. Laxodon, editor of that Northern Federal sheet, the Mobile Avertiser. Mr Langdon is a Connecticut man by birth, to which we do not object, except that be has imported with him Connecticut principles of the'most blue nose dye and Weathersfield odor. A letter before us from Mobile states t hat Bragg will easily beat him. We trust so, if it is only to disappoint some of his Free Soilet well-wishers at the North who are patting him on the back and hurraing for him in this wise. The Ohio State Journal says: Charles C Langdon, editor of the Mo bile Advertiser, has accepted the nomina tion of the Whigs of his district as their candidate for Congress. We receive the Advertiser regularly and regard it one of the best papers we receive from the South. Mr Langdon will probably be elected, and will be an honor to his district and State. When an Ohio Free Soiler stamps his approbation on a Southern newspaper what is the inference? Why, that the Freesoil ers know their friends atthe South. “Birds of a feather, &c, Bibb County. —An animated meeting of the Southern Rights Party was held in Macon on Saturday last to ratify tr.e’nem ination and proceedings of the Southern Bights Convention. “It was addressed fsays in speeches of great effect apd ability by the Hon.

Mr Cobb’s At “eptance. —As ample time has elapsed iur the acceptance by the Hon Howell Cobb of the nomination made or rather ratified by the Toombs Conven tion, and no publication is yet made of that acceptance, the consolidation Union ists not behind the scenes, may possibly feel some uneasiness on the subject, lo relieve liter, anxiety, we publish a state ment from headquarters, Washington City, where the nomination of Mr Cobb was originally made, “Mr Cobb of Georgia. — We place in. our columns to day the report ofthe speech delivered by this distinguished g&ttjqman, at the Athenaeum ot Savannah, as contain ed in ihe Savannah Republican ol the 10tb instant. Every thing now said by the gentleman assumes great importance on. account of the humiliation he has accepted as the candidate of the UNION PARTY ol Georgia.”— Washington Union, May 31 si. It will be here perceived that Mr Cobb had not only been nominated,but had actu ally accepted the nomination some time be fore the ratifying Convention assembled at Milledgeviile. It President Fillmore had issued bis proclamation, countersigned by Messrs. Webster, Toombs, Stephens nudDuwson; to the faithful in Georgia that Mr. Cobb bad alreudy been selected as their candi date, and had duly accepted, it ‘might have saved many of the Union delegates a licit and dusty ride to Milledgeviile. —Cort st nationalist.

SHAKEASPERE, Jr. Thf remains of Paul Jones. —A ship master of Leith addresses a communication to the editor of the London Times , in which he suggests that the remains of Paul Jones can be found in the Strangers’ Burying Ground, at Cronstadt, in Russia, and says that he lu.s often seen the stone which was erected over his grave. A letter, received by a gentleman in this place, from a distinguished Georgian a few weeks since, stated that tne people of Augusta were hastening the completion of their railroad connection with Savannah in order to be prepared for our secession, and have no interruption to their commerce —Southern Patriot. The “distinguished Georgian” above referred to has misinformed the editors of the Patriot, —He has indulged in a mere random assertion of a fact which does not exist. Those editors too, are entirely too ready to catch at such statements; howev er improbable. The question of secession has not been discussed, or been in any way influential upon the people of Augus ta, in connection with this rail-wav enter prize, nor has it added a single dollar tQ the subscription list of the Waynesbor ro Railroad, or hastened its operation in any way. The work had been determined upon long since and is now progressing without any reference whatever to South Carolina politics.— Constitutionalist. Col John Cochran has been unani mously nominated as the Southern Rights candidate for Congress in the Montgomery District. The entire party will rally, with enthusiasm, to his support, and there can be little doubt of his success. From the Albany Patriot. THE BARGAIN CONSUMMATED. So far as it is possible to judge from ap pearances, we have never known so rank a case of bargain and intrigue as that w hicb was consummated at Milledgeville last Monday, by the self-styled Constitutional Union party. When Mr. Clay, as a representative of Ktntucky in Congress, violated the in structions of his State and defeated the I wishes of the Republican party, of which he was then a prominent member, by giv ing his vote and influence to John Q, Ad ante, instead of Arttirotv Jackson, by which he elected Adams President, it was con sidered conclusive proof of “bargain and ‘ corruption,” that the facts as they occurred had been previously published in a letter from a member of Congress. The letter stated that Clay would betray the Repub lican party, violate the instructions of his State, elect Adams President, and that Ad ams would appoint Clay Secretary of State. All this actually took place as predicted/ in the letter, and il was considered pm/fi of the bargain and corruption which had been previously charged against hni/ If we apply the, same rule to- the nomination ol Mr Cobb, the same conclusina/seems to be inevitable. There was a,*bargain of some kind made at Washington, by which Mr. Cobb,a professed Democrat, was to be made Governor of (Jeorgm by the Whigs —and ail the Democixfs that Mr. Cobb could influence. / The fact that he/was to be made Gover nor was first announced in the Northern papers and ihf*q echoed with approbation by Southern Whig presses which had al ways abused hiaj like a pick-pocket,— Stephens and Tnchnibs. according to the report .are parties tithe bargain—are man ajria,g the Federal s\e of the case—and are to have their shafts of ihe phens is to be made Senator in place df Judge Eerrien, aod Toombs is probably to have something better.
