Curious Case of Swindling —Extra
ordinary interest has been excited in the
English circles at Pan by the trial, a few
days ago, of an English married couple
on the charge of swindling. The hus
band represented himself to be the son
of a colonel in the English army, and a
Neapolitan Princess, the wife took the
title of lady, and represented herself
to be the daughter of an English gener
al. Both pretended to be allied to the
families of the Dukes of Norfolk, Lei
cester and Devonshire. On the 13th of
February last they arrived in a posl
chaiseat the Hotel de France, accom
panied by several servants, and they
lived in the style of persons of the high
est rank. They ran up a bill ofo,ooof.
and, ns the landlord declined to give
credit for more, they took a chateau,
which they caused to be fitted up in a
costly way. They paid 2,500f, on ac
count of the rent; but ran deep into debt
with butcher, tailor, dress maker, gro
cer, carpel-dealer, and domestics. The
lady, who affected to be very pious, in
curred 6951. with .Aan bbe for masses.—
An English ladv who arrived from Brus
sels to give evidence, stated that her
husband had paid 50,000f. to release
them from the debtor-’ prison at Cologne.
She however, added, that she believed
that they were what they represented
themselves to be—but other witnesses
threw doubt on this point.
It was shown that they had received
letters from Lord Grey, the King of Hol
land, and other distinguished person
ages. The tribunal, after hearing all
the evidence, decided that the accused
had made use of false names, and had
been guilty of swindling. It according
ly condemned them to a year’s impris
onment, and 200f. fine. On heating the
sentence the woman uttered a piercing
shriek and tainted in her husband’s
arms. He with apparently great affec
tion paid her every attention, and she
soon recovered. They were then re
moved to prison. *
Tin-: A dji.'stmknt.—ln the accounts we copy
trom .1 Baltimore pa|*-r received yesterday, the
reader will fee the latest instance of how the Com
promise works, and liow lienutiluMv the Adjust
ment lias settled the right of Southern men to
their projierty. We have had three instances
within a few days. In one, after a full proof of
ownership and escape, the slave was released on
habcae rorpii*, on the plea that he escaped before
the enactment of the present law—which was no
toriously made, not to change, hut to enforce the
provisions of the old. In the second ease, the
court entertained a plea that the slave was of In
dian blood, and though the decision was adverse,
it was distinctly given out that if the evidence had
been good on this js>int, the slave would have
been freed. This is constitutional law with a ven
geance ! The third ease is that of which we furn
ish a brief account this morning—a case not of the
vicious subtleties of law made the instrument of
faction and fanaticism, but of brute violence, prac
ticed iu one of the oldest and most populous counties
of Pennsylvania, with the manifest connivance of
the population at large. The telegraph informs us
that there have been arrests of some of these mur
derers. No doubt, —there were arrests also of
the Boston ruffians, who invaded the Court House,
and forcibly rescued a slave from the officers—
but no one was ever punished. And so it will be
in this case. It is the nature of the present Ad
ministration to bluster and talk big, as a substitute
for vigorous and honest action. It is, of all shams
next to the Adjustment, the greatest that the pres
ent age lias brought to light.— [Chan. Mercury.
On Friday evening, four girls
promenaded Pennsylvania Avenue in the
new costume. It wfls no doubt very correct
according to Mrs. Bloomer, hut it was un
questionably incorrect and town-boyish to
the eyes of ordinary mortals. It is extreme
ly unlikely that a dress which is so remarks-

| To coincide with the ideas, taste, and refine*
, inent of the time —to have a chance of sue
t cess—the petticoat should descend nearly to
; the ankle. The dress would then be grace
j ful and decent.—-S'. Press.
I WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 24. 1851
THE ELECTION.
■ Our recent letter* itre far more encouraging for
the prospects of the’Southern Rights party than
they have been. In the Ist., 2d. and 3d Districts
our friends are in high spirits; and confident of
\ beating Chappell, Hopkins and Johnson,
The honest, high-minded and incorruptible
standard-bearer of Southern Rights, Henry L.
Brnm.no is getting ou bravely in this District.
The following is an extract from a letter writ
-1 ten by one of the most intelligent and respectable
citizens of Irwin county, dated
Irwin Coi'.vrr,Sept. 17.
! “ Mr. Johnson has been in this county and re
| nulined six days. lie spoke at two places, but
has done nothing, in my opinion, worth the trip.
I 1 can say to you, that McDonald and Henning will
! get 400 majority : in this county Cobb and John
son will not get more than 50 out and if there
is a fall turn out, of GOO votes.
‘‘l have been in the counties of Clinch, Lowndes,
Ware, Thomas, Telfair and Appling. We shall
carry all these counties except Clinch. Col. Jack
son is safe, and McDonald and himself will carry
the first district by 1500 to 2000 majority.”
Au intelligent gentleman just from the Chero
kee country, where he litis been spending several
weeks, states that the Union boastings of immense
majorities in that region are false and made lor
effect. lie gives it us his opinion that Cobb’s ma
jority west of the Chattahoochee, will lie small, if
;it is anything, lie has left us his figures to prove
it. Rut figures before au election are not worth
uiueh.
From Mr. Cobb's old District we have the fol
lowing from an intelligent Southern Rights gen
tleman. lie writes despairingly. Wo do not
withhold it, as our readers are entitled to hear both
sides and draw their own conclusions :
A turns, Sept. IG, 1851.
“ In this district and in this section of the State,
we shall lie badly beaten. In Cobb's old district
his majority will be from 20ou to 2,500. Nor
would that majority he diminished were he to
announce his opposition to the institution of
slavery, and pledge himself for its ultimate ex
tinction. The sentiment of Free Soilism is much
stronger than you could imagine, and if tested in |
this district, the Union is stronger two to one. I
than slaeery .”
We seriously ask, if the writer of this extract
speaks truth, or Is the foregoing the coinage of a
distempered brain ? If truth—then is the end
nearer at hand than any of us have supposed.
Look into it, Southern men;
MR. JOHNSON AND TIIE ENQUIRER.
Last week the Enquirer thus characterized
the evidence in support of the charges of Free
Soil opinions, against Mr. Johnson.
“Private conversations have been retailed according to
the recollections ofhis enemies, and reports circulated in
various portions of the district, known to every man in
tlie city of Mr. Johnson’s residence, to he not only rs-
TRI E, BIT WHICH HAVE NO FOUNDATION IN FACT.”
Since this was written Mr. Flournoy, under
his own signature, has denied that he intend
ed to impeach the testimony of Gen. Semmes
and Mr. Flewellen; and the inference is irre
sistible that if the other two witnesses, Mai.
Howard and Mr. Chambers (now absent from
the city) were to t.ake the trouble to ask
him, if he intended to impugn the veracity of
their statements, he would also answer in the
negative. Then the facts are true, and the
witnesses unimpeached. What then becomes
of the Enquirer's averment of last week, that
the “■reports are not only untrue, hut have no
foundation in fact]”
But the Enquirer does not stop here. In
its issue of yesterday, it virtually admits that
Mr. Johnson did hold to these objectionable
opinions; but he is not accountable for them,
because he has not put them forth since he
took the stump as a candidate—in short, that
with the new lights before him, in his new
circumstances, of candidacy for office at the
hands of a slaveholding District, he has
changed, and liecame converted.
Well, this is a death-bed repentance and
comes rather late, supposing it to he. genuine,
to satisfy a .people who own slaves, who be
lieve in the institution as a good one, and
who have no notion of moving to Illinois to
be rid of its “contaminating influences.”
To show how these opinions of Mr. John-’
son are regarded by persons at a distance,
we copy the remarks of the Montgomery Ad
vertiser & Gazette, accompanying the publi
cation of the letters of Messrs. Flewellen and
•thers:
“ It is one of the monf stunting “si?n* of the times,”
llmt Liu.* tvulji y irtr >rf Ih.- Houtli ore running men forot
flee who are known to be hostile to our institutions. In
Virginia they have Bolts in the Held —a man who ac
knowledges the coristitu’ionality of the Wihnot proviso,
amt who derides the doctrine of State Ritjlits. In an im
mediate neighboring State, Georgia, they have Ja John
son as a candidate for Congress, who goes even further
than Bolts—indeed, he is proved to he not one whit b
than .Seward. In relation to the position of this lastuam
ed gentleman, the proof is at hand. The State Bights pa
pers of Columbus—the Times and the Southern Sentinel
—had charged Johnson with entertaining the most posi
tive free soil doctrines. In a speech recently made, Mr
Johnson made a quasi denial of the charge, which called
forth the following letters or certificates, addressed to the
editor of the Times. To thpse who know the gentlemen
whose signatures are apjiended, it is useless to say they
are unimpenched and unimpeachable for honor and ve_
racity. We have, then, at the present time two declared
free soilers—may we not say abolitionists—running for
Congress In the South—one nominated in Virginia by the
Wats party, the other in Georgia by the Constitltion
l Union party, which, we “calculate,” is about the same
thing.”
Jafcf” Some industrious gentleman has ta
ken a good deal of antiquarian pains to prove
from the musty records of the past, that the
Hon John Forsyth, was'a Federalist, na anti-
Statc Rights, and anti-State Sovereignty
politician. Well, the same thing has been
done in ragard to George Washington, Thos.
Jefferson and Jaiue Madison—all of whom
have been quoted to prove that the Federal
Government was little short of a monarchy
in the extent if its powers, and that a State
had no right to secede; and no doubt, the
speeches and writings of John C. Calhoun
and George M. Troup, might be so garbled
as to make the same of their princi
ples.
Admitting the complete success of the rx
parte compilation—granting it proved th t
Washington was a Federalist, andJeffersoiij
Madison, Jackson, Calhoun, Troup, and For
syth were all anti-State Rights men, it doqb
not change our principles or opinions,—itd(As
not make of us, any tiling but wliat we are—
firm believer in the sovereignty of States, as
the sheet anchor of the rights nnd liberties
of the people nnd political communities of
the South.
But we deny that the case is made out n
gainst any of them, and so far as Mr. Forsyth
is concerned, that one of the extracts published
in the Enquirer proves that he toolt high Stats
Rights ground in. the Georgia controversy
with the General Government ori the Chero
okee question.
The extract front Mr. Forsyth’s speeches
on the Cherokee controversy, reproduced by
Senator Bibb, in the Nullification dbbiite, is
a refutation, equally as strong as the prece
ding extracts that are relied on to prove the
proposition 1 . The Enquirer’s compiler was
unfortunate in letting this extract slip into
his one-sided exhibit. It makes it not so one
sided as was designed. It saves tfsf for the
present the labor of diving into the records
of the past. Here it is: and we tire sure it
does not smock much of Federalism :
Extract from .Mr. Forsyth's speech on th us* of fore*
against a furrrrign Staff.
“No judge was culled on, no lnngi.stnitunought to com
mand the services Ilf the marshals, sheriffs, or any other
oivil officer; hut a direct appeal was mndo to force, In
the most odious of its forms—military force; a portion
of the hired soldiery, were the instruments ordered to be
used against a State law, u military force previously car
ried to the scene of action w ith the design of preserving
peace among the Indians! I nsk by what authority
tho President employed this military , in n time of pro
found peace, against the chnttsleraey V”
“ \\ lienee did the President derive tills treinemloua
power? Bi<J lie get it by law ? If he did, let it he shown
It is but a short time since, that on n dispute with
South Carolina on the subject of a law of that Slate pro
hi biting persons of color from coming into it from for
eign vessels, the President, afler taking the opinion of
the Attorney General applied to tin State to repeal the
law, as inconsistent with the obligations of the'Uni
ted States, uuder the treaty with Great Britain. Wliat
was the result ? Tlie I.egislntiiru vindicated the art, aid
it it still stands on their Statute book,ln forre anil to la
enforced, whenever it shall lie necessary. Will it ho
pretended that tlie President has authority to execute Ihs
treaty with Great Britain, by sending a major general,
with n portion of the standing army, to Charleston or
Beaufort, to rescue from confinement persons who may
be In custody under that State law? Would it be en
dured? Yet sir, lie has done precisely tlie same tiling In
Guorgln. tic has iuter|Hised military force to the Statu
law. The bayonets of United Mates have been flashed
in the eyes of the Slate Authorities, within its owu ju
risdiction. And for wliat mighty purpose?”
But vve Jo not intend to let the matter rest liure.
We shall vindicate the memory of the dead from
this Federal slander. Wo are determined that
submissionism ‘shall pluck no dower from tho
grave of his revered memory, wherewith to deck
its recreancy to the great principles of the Indepen
dence and Sovereignty of the States. A public
life of 30 years, devoted to the service of Demo
cratic and State Rights principles, h’asf left its
marks on the annals of the coitntr q and we shall
appcul to them for this vindieation.

“Tor our part wc are as deeply shocked at the blood

their side, and that a laic uugust and divine in origin,
namely, the law of Nature. They defended art inaliena
ble right, namely, the right to their own persons. When
that right is assailed, no human decree or enactment can
annul the authority of the individual to defend it, and to
defend it, if lie think advisable, to tlie last. No act of
Congress can make it right for one man to convert an
other into bis personal property, or wrong for that other
to refuse to he so treated. No statute of man’s making
can abrogate tlie first and manliest instinct of man’s na

An article below from the New York Her
aid describes the condition of both tho great
parties of the Empire State. It does more
than this—lt sketches truly as thith itself,
the main features of the Compromise: It
gives the terms upon which Clay and Coblv
and Foote surrendered the South to the al<jj
litionists of the North—a capitulation of
which that of Hull to the British, of
Georgey to the Russians and Austrians fur-*
nish the only parallels.
In one point we think, though we regret
to Be forced to that conclusion, that the Her
ald is at fault. It intimates that the conser
vatives of tho South eannot be brought into
harmonious co-operation with the New York,
Ohio and Pennsylvania Whigs, abolitionized
and Scwardized, as the latter are. We think
it is mistaken.—These same
showed no unwillingness to support a free
soiler for Vico President in 1848, and having
elected, are particularly well pleased with him.
Wc see no reason for believing that they
will not, with equal heartiness support an
other in 1852.
We quote from the Herald as follows. We
wish the people of Georgia would read what
it says about the compromise, before bring
ing in their verdict for or against its oppo

Georgian.
