Wright, of the sth Dislrict, in announcing his purpose not to bo an independent candidate for C-mgrei-u, took occasion t»decutre that hia own iuouoalionM prompted him to be ac-an tli late, aud that k wu iu doubt as to what course t-> pur. ua until ho received “reliable information that G»v Brown thought hv- election would he embarniseed” should he run, and “earnestly de eired” that he would not boa candidate. Thii set tled the question, and Wright declined. The Democratic Platform, of Calhoun, Georgia —a paper that has Gov. Brown’s name at its “mas head” as the Democratic nominee—is much chagrined at Governor Browu’a inteifereacein this family quarrel. If does not seem to understand how the man who bod-te of the “thirty thousand majority” which he commands at his beck aud call, can be afraid oi the effect upon 6is prospects of a Democratic free fight in the sth Congressional District, aud it intimates preity plainly that this sutl den fear that, has possessed the Governor is not go ing to help him in that region. We copy from the Platform -.—Columbus Enquirer. “There is something in this affair which the people do not understand, and wish explained. This letter -makes an indirect charge upon Gov. Brown, of interfering in the Congressional election in this District; and v* bother true or not. it is not denied, the people will believe it true, and will necessarily become eomewhat relaxed : u their efforts for him. We must confess, with all our admiration of Gov. Brown, aud the cordiality with which we have support ed his administration, and do yet, that this is a* matter beneath hia dignity. Wa wish to be understood distinctly. We are yet for Brown’s administration, but whenever we believe any man in position, whether high or low, friend or toe. is wrong, sell respect compels U 3 to speak of it. Our admiration never compels ua to let error pass un combatted. And we speak knowingly when we say tha‘ maay good and influential Democrats lake the same view of this matter that wa do,’’ A Novei.

A few days ago e, e said Mr. Akin was paid a thousana dollars by the State to attend n case , against the Hoad, and agreed vvh-a tie was paid, to attend to it to the end of the litigation, and that be , left it. when it was decided against Ihe State in G >B3 Superior Court, and that another lawyer had io b , employed to carry it up to the Supremo Court. In f the latter Court tho case was reversed and is now i pending, but Mr. Akin who kept the tee, did not keep /us word. Now look at the proof. Lit tho reader turn to an article in this paper, which we , have copied from the Atlanta Intelligencer, and see for himself the agreement between Akin and G.-v. Brown in the Kinney case vs. the Stats Road. lie will there uee Mr Akin's pledged word to conduct the case for the State, through to the end of the liti gation—not through Gass Superior Court but through to the. end of the. litigation. Now reader, hadn’t Warren Akin better go home and fulfill his promise, before lie atks tae people of Georgia to make kin-. Governor? What says the Chronu-lo «5c Sentinel now, ot the “miscreants ?” Who is the “miscreant” now ?— Fed. I r nion. The above, which we clip from the Federal Union I contains a pioss uiLrepresentation of Mr. Akin.— ; The Federal Union knew that Mr, Akin tea* not paid one thousand dollars for his services in the C ise alluded to, the case ol Kinney vs. the State Hoad. T be Federal Union knew that Mr. Akin had made no charge in the Kinney cruse, in the biil which he presented to Gov. Brown, anti which Brown refused to pay. Gov. Brown \ roposed to pay Mr. Akin’s biil, if the latter would deduct SSOO, which Mr. Akin refused, but agreed, upon ihe pay ment of the bill, to attend to the Kinney case, with out further charge, which stow s conclusively that the Kinney fee would not have been SI,OOO. Ia fact, Col. Akin was not paid any fee, in that case, bat simply agreed—to avoid a law suit—do at tend to the case, without charge, upon the pay ment of his bill for other services. Further, Col. Akin did not agree to attend to the case to the end of the litigation, and the Federal Union and Gov Brown know it. lie only agreed, and bound himself, to attend to it to its end—meaning its cud in Cacs Court. The agreement was in writing, it teas legally lauding, and was so intended to be by Gov. Brown. Now, if Mr. A kin failed to oonipiy with ilia legally binding written agreement, the Governor of the State has failed to discharge his duly, in not compelling the fulfilment of ihe agree ment. Instead of that, however, he authorized the ifcoad Attorney to employ and pay for legal ser vices to carry tho case up to the Supreme Court, and never once demanded of Mr. Akin the fulfil ment of what the Governor ai: d his minions now Bay was a lepal obligation. SL&me, shame, upon such despicable trumpery. “Who, now, is the miscreant l" We answer Joseph E. Brown, as the instigator of the false charge, and the futelli gencer and Union as aiders and abettors in U*e cliffy wprk.

It strikes us that the -‘breathings” of Mr. Meri arn’s credulity, if condensed, might be picked up ia the form of “palpable absurdities” more sub stantial than his “Silkery of ihe Skies.” It the following story is :rue it exhibits an in stance of almost unparalleled honesty : Whsu rail ways were in their infancy if was supposed that they would injure the estates through which or near which they ran, and the English Cabinet Minister, Mr. Laboucher’s father, reoaivod the compensation of $150,000 lor an imaginary detriment of this sort Aii .-r his death, hid son, tiuding that there was no injury to the estate from tho vicinity of the railway, nut the contrary. refunded the $150,000.
