Opposition Meeting in Newton.
A public meeting of the citizens of Newton was
held at Covington on the 7th inst. for the purpose
of organising an Opposition Party- The abuses of
the 1* ederal Administration were set forth in a pre
amble in forcible terms. We have not space left
this week for their publication. The meeting
passed unanimously a resolution recommending
that a Congressional (Invention to nominate a can
didate for Congress in this district be held on the 1st
Thursday in July in Eatonton, unless some other
time and place,should be adopted by a majority of
the district.
Messrs P. Reynolds, C. C. Wright, Wm.F. Davis
and T. M. Meriwether, were appointed the Deliga
tion to attend the Convention.
W"e would call the attention of our cotemporary
of the Chronicle ft Sentinel to the communication of
the “Whigs and Americans of Baldwin.’’ Some of
our American friends seem quite restive whenever
they see an article that reflects upon their late
meeting; but as our cotemporary is able to take
care of himself, wo leave it with him to answer the
communication it he feels so disposed. Perhaps
brother Andrews of the Citizen, if he will read care
fully the first few lines of the communication re
ferred to, can by inference, see that lie. is a “little
presumptuous in talking about things that don’t
interest him—remember, the Chronicle ft Sentinel
lias a large circulation in the c< unties of Hancock,
Greene, Morgan and Newton. We leave it how
ever with him to say, whether our correspondent
is right or not.
Georgia Penitentiary.
There are at present, we learn, in this institution,
tico hundred and thirteen Convicts—forty of them hav
ing been committed to it within the present year.
I his is a larger number than has ever been in it at
one time before. The increase of crime, it would
seem lias inspired the several courts with a deter
mination to try the certainty of punishment, rather
than clemency, to bring about a sound state of
morals.
Hr. Uigbiman's Studio.
We visited last week the Studio in the Masonic
Hall, of Mr. Wight man, portrait painter, and was
pleased to see the portraits of a number of our citi
zens- Among those that struck us most forcible
for correctness, were those of Dr. 13. A. White,
Rev. Dr. Talmage, Mr. Lamprey and the late Dr.
Fort. The portrait of Rev. Dr. Talmage was taken
at the instance of the students of Oglethorpe Uni
versity, to be placed in the University, a tribute of
respect and a token of honor and esteem justly
due Dr. T. for his noble exertions and untiring en
ergy in behalf of the University. The fancy piece
of Antiope, for richness and artistic skill, can
hardly be excelled. It would be well for our citi
zens to call and see Mr. W. at his room in the Ma
sonic Hall and judge for themselves of his merits
in his profession.

itcduction os the Legislature.
Pursuant to a recommendation of the Grand
Jury, a highly respectable meeting of the citizens
of Liberty county was held on the 7th inst—T. Q.
Cassells, acting as Chairman and II. M. Law, Sec
retary.
Upon taking the Chair, the object of the meet
ing was formally announced by the Chairman in a
few pertinent and forcible remarks.
Upon motion of W. S. Norman, Esq,, a commit
tee of nine was appointed by the Chair to prepare
anu submit a report for the action of the meeting.
The following gentlemen were appointed that
committee: VV. S. Norman, Esq., Chairman, Hon.
C. Hines, VV r . (j. Baker, Capt. P. Fleming, David
Zticks, Esq., S- A. Frasier, Capt. T. Shaw, W. A.
Thorn, and D. Delk. Upon motion the Secretary
wa«added to that committee
The committee having retired, returned after a
short interval, and submitted, through their Cl
man, the following preamble and resolution which
were adopted as expressive of the sense of the
meeting, by a large and decided majority—a fev
of those present not deeming a Convention neeessa
ry to effect the object in view.
Whereas, it seems to be generally conceded
that the present number of Senators and Repre
sentatives in the General Assembly of Georgia, i:
not only too large to sit in council together for the
transaction of business, but causes an immense
expenditure of the State's funds, which could be
better appropriated for educational purposes
in developing the agricultural resources of our
State, be it therefore—
Resolved, That we deem it imperatively neeessa
ry that the Legislature of Georgia should be re
dueed, and that we request our representatives in
the next Legislature to vote for the call of a con
vention to eil'ect the same.
For the Recorder.
Messrs. Editors:—Believing that you have
misunderstood an expression in my communica
tion, I desire to make an explanation ;
My meaning was this. If Col. Kenan is still a
candidate when the Convention meets (should
there bo one) then lie would not and ought not to be
nominated. I do not fur one moment believe that
the Convention would so far yield its dignity as to
nominate him.
If Col Ivenau before the Convention assembles,
or when it does assemble, will withdraw his name
as a candidate and submit his claims to that body
and he is nominated, I will give him my feeble sup
port with pleasure. I regard him as a gentleman
of high abilities and one that would represent the
District with great credit ALEXIS.
Milledgeville, June i>, 1659.
At a regular meeting of the Board of Trustees
of the State Lunatic Asylum,
Present, Col. D. C. Campbell, Col. Miller Grieve
and Dr. S. G. White.
On motion, Col. Grieve was called t > the chair
Col. Campbell presented the following preamble
and resolutions, which were, on m ition unanimous
ly adopted :
Dr. Tomlinson Fort, President of this Board,
having since tiie last meeting, departed this life.—
Be it resolved, That in his decease, the Asylum has
lost, one of its earliest, must efficient and devoted
friends, the State, a most useful and estimable
patriot; the community in which lie lived, one of
their most valuable and esteemed citizens; and
ourselves—his associates in this board—a friend in
whose counsels we confided, and one whose mem
v we will ever cherish.
Resolved, That we tender to the afflicted family
of the deceased, our sincere and heartfelt sympa
thies and condolence ; and that the Secretary hand
a copy of these resolutions to the family, and cause
the same to be published in the newspapers of the
city.
On motion, Dr. Samuel G. White was then elect
ed President of the Board of Trustees, to fill the
vacancy occasioned by the death of Dr. Fort,
The Board then adjourned to the regular meet
ing on the first Monday in July, unless sooner call
ed together.
B. I’. STUBBS, Secretary.
Supreme CounT.-Judge McDonald having resign
ed the J udgeship of tins bench, we see that tbe
Hon. Linton Stephens has been appointed to fill
his vacancy, which will expire at the meeting ot
the legislature. Then two Judges will have to be
elected, aud we would suggest that the legislature
could not do better than place upon the Supreme
Bench, the Hon. E. A Nisbet ami lion. Hiram
Warner. The salaries having been raised, we pre
sume these gentlemen, who gave so much charac
ter to our court iu its early history, could be induc
ed to accept the Judgeships again. It would go
very far to allay and quiet the feeling of opposi
tion aud prejudice that unfortunately hri3 existed
against it for the last two or three years.

A Slaver Towed into Havana^
Charleston, June 7.—The Steamer Walker,
which left Key West on the 4th. reports that the
bark J. J. Cobb, had been towed into Havana by
a New York schooner. She was picked up scut
tled and abandoned off Matanzas, having landed a
cargo of Bozal negroes.
New Orleans, June 6.—The election to-day, for
Comptroller and AWermen, resulted in favor of
the American ticket by a majority of two thousand.
No serious disturbance.
John Cobb, Jr.—We learn that Judge Bull this
morning passed sentence of death upon this unfor
tunate individual. He is to be hung on Friday, the
8th day of July, proximo. We did not hear the
sentence pronounced, but learn that it was most
feelingly delivered, and that Cobb seemed to be
less affected by it than were most others who
heard it.

Judge Taney on Slavery.
Iu the case of the slave A my, decided a few days
since, Chief Justice Taney lias furnished a written
decision, in which he asserts the following great
legal principles, touching the institution of slavery
in the United States :
J. That slaves are recognised by the Constitu
tion of the United States in the character of persons.
*2. That slaves are represented in Congress, as
persons.
3. That as persons, they are, in many instances,
at least, subject to certain liabilities, and invested
with the rights corresponding to those liabilities in
the same way that other persons are.
4. That among these liabilities are those which
render them amenable to trial and punishment for
crimes and misdemeanors ; and among these rights
in the right of legal protection against personal in
jury.
". That the Constitution of the United States al
so recognizes slavery as property.
6. “As property, the rights of owners are enti
tled to the protection of the law,” i. e. the laws of
the United States, enacted bv Congress.”
Jas. S. Slaughter, Esq., who had previously
announced himself as a candidate for Congress in
the 4tli District, at the request of many political
friends, has now, on the suggestion being made
that he acted prematurely, recalled the announce
ment. He is, however, willing to run if the pro
posed District Convention of the Opposition party
should tenderliim the nomination.
Mr. Slaughter has also retiredTrom the station
of Associate Editor of the Atlanta American, a posi
tion which he has occupied for a few months past
with much ability
The 7th Cragressiaaal District and the Chrca-
icie It Scatutl.
Messrs. Ormk : We notice in your last South
ern Recorder, the “article” from the Chronicle Sf'
Sentinel with your question—“what say our Bald
win friends taatl’’ Well Messrs. Editors, we say
your adjunt, Mr. Jones of the Chronicle & Sentinel
who is neither a resident or voter in the 7th Con-
gresional Dist. is a little presumptuous we think
in thrusting his opinions or advice upon the free
men of a county in which so far from his having
any influence, it is believed, he has no subscriber 4
But as you invoke our opinion upon this “article”
let us proceed—the 1st proposition of your friend
Mr. Jones is, that “this meeting acted entirely
independent of, and without reference to the usages
ot the Farty, or the wishes and fcclings m of the vo
ters of the other portion of the Dist.” Upon what
authority or information let us enquire does Mr.
Jones, makes the statement, that the meeting in
Bald win “acted without reference to the wishes and
feelings, of the voters of the other portion of the
Di-t.” This “hurried - ' statement, is certainly
gratuitous, aud unsupported by any fact adduced
—will the Editor of the Chronicle & Sentinel,
venture the assertion, that the Whigs and Amer
icans of Baldwin acted without reference to the
wishes and feelings of the voters of Jones, Wilkin
son, Twiggs, Washington, Hancock, &c., ifso^i few
weeks will teach him that the open independent
course of the citizens of Baldwin in giving ail open
field and ostracising no one, will meet with a cor
dial response. It is the freeman’s privilege to pre
sent himself—equally the right of freemen to
vote for whomsoever he pleases—untrameled by
dictation from any quarter—your friend Mr. Jones’
2d proposition, is, that “it is not to be supposed
that the five thousand Americans and Itliigs of the
Dist., will quietly submit to have a candidate,
thrust upon them, by a very few (less than a hund
red) members of the party in Baldwin; the thing is
preposterous and absurd—for a few members of the
party, in one of the smallest counties in the Dis
trict, to force the other ten counties into obedience
to their dictation”—In this 2d proposition, your
endorser, Mr. Junes makes the statement, hurried
doubtless, that less than one hundred, of tiie Party,
are attempting to force and thrust a candidate, upon
the other ten counties of the district! what confi
dence can any candid reader put in such feeble,
reckless statements ? And yet Messrs Onnc, in
rising from its perusal, and gazing upon its stu
pendous proportions, we hear you exclaim, “icc are
right and tec know it!” With the blank endorse
ment, w hich you have thus given your friend and
ally Mr. Jones, we shall not be astonished to hear,
that he endorses y iur recently expressed belief, to-
wit—tlial the meeting in Baldwin, did not exp ress
tlie wishes and feelings of the American party of
Baldwin! we predict that your next discovery and
complaint, will he, that other counties, are endors
ing , the course of the Baldwin meeting!! Your
friend and Editor, of the Chronicle & Sentinel,
says “he lias no feeling in the matter, is speaking
plainly to and of friends &e., “certainly—for no
doubt, he has read, that
“Trust reposed in noble natures,
Obliges them the more.”
But before leaving the subject., you doubtless ex
pect to hear from your Baldwin friends, upon the
advisory part of your friend Jones’ letter—in which
he says “the only true policy is to call a convention and
to abide by and cordially support its decision !!”
Upon reading this sentence we fell into the fol
lowing soliloquy—Is this the same James Jones,
who several years ago, bolted the Scott and Gra
ham nominations—turned his paper against them
in the canvass, and produced “discord” in the
Whig ranks, by running Mr. Webster? Perhaps
he too, thinks because/ic owns a “pres.s” and feels
that he is an “independent Editor” lie has an exclu
sive privilege Xo bolt conventions or adhere “cordi
ally” to its decisions as he may think proper—grant
however that lie has the right, at any time to bolt
or abide nominations—deference to the equal
privileges of others, should have suggested to him
that the Whigs and Americans of the old 7th are
quite competent, if not to take care of themselves,
politically, at least to select tlieir adviser. We have
no confidence in the consistency, fairness, or judg
ment ofEditors, who violate, a party usage, one
day, and the next, call for its application. The
truth is; the people have become disgusted with
the workings and maueuverings of Conventions.
What lias been their vacillating and capricious
history for the last five or six years, in the 7th
District! Why Doctor Reese w as nominated by
one Convention and rejected by the next. Mr.
Foster, being nominated, he too shared a like fate
and was rejected, and Mr. Hill nominated, in his
place. Now this proves one of t wo things, either
that the nominations, made by the Conventions,
did not express the “wishes and feelings” of the
people of the District, or that the conventions, that
rejected these gentlemen, “violated” the “wishes
and feelings” of their constituency—the remedial
right of the freemen of the country is to take matters
into their own hands—they call for a return to the
old republican times, when candidates, came be
fore the whole people and .stood upon the merits,
of their measures, and principles; aud not upon
the management or introduction of an irresponsi
ble convention—restore to the people their original
power, and let them have an opportunity of making
their own choice, through tiie Ballot Box, and
not have a candidate put upon them {through their
delegates,)—Letthetic, of responsibility, then be
preserved, between the people and tlieir represen
tative—and not betw een a convention and the rep
resentative—let the representative feel, dependent,
not upon the favor or smile of a few individuals, iu
each county,who usually attend conventions-but let
him rest uponthe/arorof the people—this not only
preserves the tie of responsibility, but it gives in
dependence to the integrity of the representative.
“This and this alone, is the great conservative
principle which lies at the foundation of all our
political institutions, and sustains 1 lie great and
glorious fabric of our liberty.” ‘‘It is the very
life and soul of Republican freedom, and no states
man is worthy to minister at her sacred alter, who
does not distinctly perceive and deeply feel it.”—
In conclusion allow us to say that we intended in
this number to take some nolice of yoifr last edito
rial, but as this article is already long we will defer
further remarks until another-occasion.

in no worse condition than it is now under Demo

A Oi
To the Anerieai Party of Georgia:
The undersigned, yoor Central Executive Com
mittee .appointed by the Convention at MiUedgn-
ville in July, lts57, having been requested by
various American Presses and individuals, to call
a Convention of the American Party, according to
usage, preparatory to a general re-organisation for
tbe approaching fall elections—beg leave to an
nounce, tliat, after due consideration and delibera
tion, they have deemed it advisable aot to call said
Convention.
Still true lo our principles> and cherishing tbe
liveliest regard for their maintenance, we never
theless believe, that there are other objects to be
accomplished, of much higher and more pressing
importance than any question connected with the
rights of foreign citizenship.
There is a party iu power, composed of the worst
elements'of all parties, which, unaer the sanction
of the Democratic name, has committed a series
of unparalled abuses and frauds upon 'the Ameri
can people.
It has perpetrated the Kansas swindle—squan
dered the public money in the- most shameless
manner—run up the national expenditures in time
of peace, to near 99 millions of dollars per annum !
—encouraged sectional feuds for its own aggran
dizement—and even connived at Mormon protec
tion I Worse stiii ! It has elected an Abolition
Governor over a Southern State!—a State, which
owes more to the institution of slavery, then all
the South besides—having acquired riches and
power,—by the piofessioual business of breeding
siaves for sal*. _
These are some of the enormities that have
been recently covered by the sanctions of the
Modern Democratic Party.
To hurl this.corrupt party from, power, is uow
the highest duty of every good citizen; and to ac
complish this noble purpose, we are willing to ig
nore for the time all questions ofminor importance.
Trusting in the good sense and patriotism of oar
countrymen, wo are satisfied that the evils con
nected with the naturalization of foreigners, will,
in due time, be corrected. And here we rest the
subject.
We now call npon our American friends every
where, to unite with the Opposition, against this spu
rious Democracy. Let us make a common cause.
Toget her,with conservative Whigs and independent
Democrats, make a bold descent upon the spoils
men, aud, together, share in the honors of victory.
Already, the good sense of conservative men
throughout the jengtU aud breadth oi the land, has
revolted at the misdeeds of the Democratic, Party;
and many who once adhered to it as the only
ronscrratice National Purty, have left it in disgust.
Virginia, the nursing Mother of Democratic States
men and Presidents, is giving way ;■—Tennessee
and Kentucky are expected soon to follow with,
still more decisive results—and Georgia, npon
whose patriotism and example the whole South
relies, will not fail to thunder her indignation into
the cars of her betrayers. Let us then organize—
Organize is the word.
The newspapers have suggested the holding of
an Opposition Convention in Milledgeville on the
3rd Wednesday in July next. We cordially en
dorse the suggestion, and urge our friends in eve
ry county to send up their Delegates. Let them
send their best and most experienced men, without
respect to political antecedents, provided tkey are
known to be opposed to the party in power ; and,
our word for it. we shall be able to organize such
a party as will not only correct all local abuses,
but route the’lilunderers, and save the National
Government of our Fathers from demoralization
and ruin. J. H. R. Washington,

tiadi$«o and Eatonton Railroad—Col. King’s
Letter.
Through the politeness of Col. Kenan, chairman
of the sub-committee appointed at the Railroad
meeting in Eatonton, we are able to place before
readers a letter from Col. J. P. KiDg, President
Georgia Railroad, in reply to one address him by
Col..Kenan, ou the subject of the proposed connec
tion by Railroad between this place and Eatonton.
As ive have often b-ought this matter before our
readers we submit Col. King’s letter without com
ment, awaiting the answer of the Central Railroad,
to overtures which we presume are now under
deliberation, before we offer any further views.
Augusta, May 39, 1659.
Dear Cor,.: I returned to the city yesterday,
and found yours of the 25th.
It is inconceivable to me, why there should be
any excitement or dissatisfaction in relation to the
action, or non-action of the Georgia Railroad Com
pany, on the subject of a branch to Eatonton.—
No formal application was made by the Company for
the amendment. Some persons who wished a road
from Madison to Euluuton, applied to me, during
the session of the legislature, to know if the Ga.
R. R. would build the Eat niton branch from Mad
ison, if the amendment of the charter for that pur
pose were obtained. I gave not the slightest en-
ftouragement—or certainly but little—but stated
that if there could be a simplo amendment, allow
ing tiie Company to branch from Mudison, and
increasing the stock for that purpose, with all the
powers and privileges of the original charter, such
and extension might be favorably considered—that
at any rate, the amendment could do no.harm.
The only effect of the amendment was supposed
to be, to enable the Company to build from Madi
son, and to increase the capital stock for that purpose.
The stock now being limited to $4,099,999, exclu
sive of the Washington branch. I would, have
recommended the acceptance of the smendmend-
ment, if 1 had known what it was, but was afraid
of some feature that would offer an unlimited right
to tax the whole stock through this branch. In
this state of ignorance, I took no part in the mat
ter, but approbated the course pursued. If the
amendment be accepted, and the branch not buiit
in reasonable time, ihe rights under the amend
ment, would be forfeited ; and if not accepted, the
while is of course, as open as before. I know of no
wish or disposition to claim, as against others, any
right, under the amendment, which the company
did not before possess. The idea of a combination
between the Georgia and Central Roads, to prevent
the building of this Road is a very strange one, to
say the best of it. Each Road may be unwilling to
build it, very much for the same reasons, but there
has been no understanding on the subject. I don’t
believe tliat any of tiie officers of either Company
ever dreai.ied of such a thing.
As to the prospect of the Road being built by
the Georgia Railroad, I can, at present say but lit
tle. I have not, for some years taken any pains
to ascertain the views of the stockholders on the
subject. A few years since, a formal offer was
made to the people of Pttnam county, to build the
branch to Eatonton, if they would subscribe a suf
ficient amouiitjac that purpose, under a guaranty
to be placed on the same footing as to dividends with
the other stockholders. The offer was not accepted,
and the Road was built to Milledgeville ; and 1
supposed the subject was at au end, unless the
Company should tliiuk proper, at some future time,
to build the Road, as originally chartered.
The city has always wantek a connection with
Eatonton, and I believe I may venture to say now
that the city still is in favor of this branch. There
is, how eve a strong effort, especially among the
country stockholders, to any more branches or
Railroil investments of any kind. At this feeling
you will not bo suryrised, w-hen you see the neavj-
amount of unprofitable stock we have on hand.
The subject, however, will be fairly and firiiy con
sidered. with some strong advocates, doubtless,
and with equal certainty, meeting with strong op
position. The stockholders will doubtless be in
fluenced in their decision by what they beiieve to
be their interest. Of this nobody should com
plain. Of this, however, you may feel well assur
ed—the amendment was not obtained, nor action
on it delayed, form any covert or sinister design;
and, so far as others than the Company are con
sidered as of no importance whatever. So true is
this, that, if the Road be built, it would likely be
built under the original charter—not under the
amendment. Yours, very respectfully,
Jro. P. King.
