It seems, after all, a little uneasiness pervades a portion of the Northern mind about the re sult of Lincoln s election. The stocks don’t come up to tau, and in fact last Friday was a bad day altogether in Wall Street, showing an average decline of >to 2 per cent, all round.— Ihe If eraid's money man gays no day in 1857 was so sweeping in its destructive effects. The politicians, too, are getting uneasy, and the Lin coln men are drawing it mild. Ethiopian equal ity, the irrepressible conflict, the downfall of slavery in the four yeais of Lincoln’s adminis istration, and all that kind of stuff, is in tempo rary abatement, not to say disgrace, and such assurances as those in the letter of John De frees. a noted Indiana Black Republican, are eagerly brought forward as emollients to popu lar apprehension. But this is not all : A quar rel is got up w ith poor old crazy Gerrit Smith and his red mouthed compatriots; and they are made to repudiate Lincoln on the score of his conservatism and devotion to the Constitution ! 1 hat pleases us—it does! It is a magnanimous sacrifice of a few thousand votes not wanted to elect Lincoln, as a holocaust to the peace of the Republic. It is an ingenious arrangement to post Northern extremists as middle men by thrusting out, on their Northern flank, a few crazy incendiaries and atheists, too wild in pur pose and scanty in number to do anything bet ter than harm to their associates. This is a bright idea of the Lincolnites by which they can certainly lose nothing and may gain a point with the credulous. Now, in answer to the rigmarole of John De- I frees and all others of the like kind—we have the persistent avowals of Lincoln for two years and in repeated instances of the “irrepressible conflict,” defined by himself to mean that “this I nion cannot endure half slave and half free;” and further we have his own declarations for Ethiopian equality, and the distinct avowal that he would not recognize the binding force of the Dred Scott decision in legislation upon slavery. This is the man’s own platform, and not the miserable blind put up at Chicago to throw dust in the eyes of conservative voters. But further : obliterate all this record—put Lincoln on the Chicago platform alone, in the hands of such men as Sew ard. Chase, Wilson, Hale, Sumner, Giddings, Ac., as the leader of a party organized on a single plank of opposi tion to slavery, and drawing its whole force ami vitality from the abolition sentiment of the Northern masses, and it is no free agent. It is driven by an irresistible impulse into an atti tude of unconstitutional antagonism to South ern interests. To hesitate is death to itself and destruction to the party which called it in to being. It cannot quarrel with its own life, which is Northern anti-slavery opinion. It must reflect and carry into practical operation the spirit of the masses behind it, and were all its leaders to take a panic in the prospect of collision, even Mey would be powerless to ar rest the force behind them. They would only be overturned and swept aside by the fanatical opinion they have inflamed and concentrated. We conceive none of them have now any real i election in the premises. Their only alterna tives are to shoot or give up the gun. They ■ must go ahead with their anti-slavery, steadily leading the forces of abolitionism in the accel erating pace which it has rapidly gathered from its own momentum, or faltering, be run over and crushed. It is not the man—not the platform which determines the spirit of an ad ministration, except as both clearly embody the sentiment of the masses they profess to represent. Both are almost powerless against that vital force of public opinion which calls an administration into existence. THEATRE. A fair house greeted Mr. Fleming in his favor ite role of Hamlet, which would no doubt have drawn a crowd, but for the anxiety to greet the arrival of Judge Douglas. Mr. Fleming is a fine actor, and sustains the part of Hamlet with striking ability. 'The company is an excellent • one. We did not see the afterpiece. To-night, the pressure of politics abated, we hope a crow ded house will witness the performance. ARRIVAL OF JUDGE DOUGLAS. I he committee stole a march on the crowd who expected to gather round the Depot and see Douglas, by running in quietly an hour in advance of schedule time. Mr. and Mrs. Doug las and, we presume, Mr. Stephens, made a hasty retreat to the mansion of James A. Nis bet, and the disappointed are consoling them selves in the streets just now, with shouts, gunpowder and fireworks. THE TEXAS ALMANAC FOR 1861.

He declared that in the event of Lincoln's election “there is imminent danger that the people of the South will not submit to it. Before God and my country I tell you they onght not and they will not” We rejoice that Gov. Johnson has at last ta ken this position. How unfortunate was his , declaration in Cincinnati, that the election of Lincoln was not a sufficient cause for dissolu tion. That remark aided the Black Republicans in all the recent elections, If he had said at : Cincinnati what he did at New York, the results might have been different. A friend has handed us an article from the . Augusta True Ztemocrat, of which the forego ing is the commencement, for republication.— Ihe 7rue Democrat here commits a gross error of fact, which it is due alike to the political friends and foes of Gov. Johnson should be cor rected. In the very speech alluded to, Governor Johnson twice states his opinion that the mere election of Lincoln without some “overt act” is no justifiable cause for secession. The remark quoted refers to the inauguration of the Black Republican policy ami not of the man. We sav this merely to correct misapprehension as to stet WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 31, 1860. HARDWARE.

Carhart & Curd and Mr. M eed, in each of whose large establishments the visitor in town to-day will find a very ex tensive assortment of merchantable commodities in steel, iron, and other metals.

Note their advertisement. Pvgh took the first premium at the State Fair in Atlanta, and not only so, the commit tee of awards voluntarily assured him that they had never seen any photographs equal to his, either in size or perfection. THE LINCOLN ADMINISTRATION. We find in the Hon. Jas. T. Brady's speech, delivered in New York city on the 26th, the views we have elsewhere expressed in regard to the influences which must control the Lin coln Administration, much better expressed, as follows: I hope the South will believe with me that even the election of Mr. Lincoln, with any or dinary train of consequences dependent upon that event, will not of itself create an occasion when any Southern State may secede from the Union; but I do believe that when the people of that section flatter themselves with the idea that the republicans can control the abolition sentiment which pervades their party, they are entirely mistaken. Grant that Mr. Lincoln and his followers may go successfully through his administration and safely guide the helm of State; grant all that the Times and Tribune said, in reference to some of the suggestions which fell from my lips in public when 1 was asked what the republican party proposed to do for the negro race, and they replied that they proposed nothing, that they were strug gling for the rights of the white man. Grant all this. Will you tell me how the republican party is to withstand the terrific power of that abolitionism to which I have referred ? Let me pause, and ask you to pause, while I bring to your minds distinctly the consideration of a practical truth which no man in this assem bly or in the country can deny. Why is it that the whole of New England pulsates as with one heart, in reference to this question of slav ery ? Why is that? Is it a feeling that is de pendent upon the fact whether this man shall be elected President or that man defeated ? Is there any such temporary or transient question as this involved in the lesson taught the New England boy when he first begins to compre hend the words that fall from the lips of his mother, or when he reads the eloquent appeals and abstractions of his spelling book in refer ence to liberty, or listens to the lessons incul cated from the parish pulpit ? Does any man suppose that this sentiment thus pervading all New England, will be satisfied by a conserva tive administration of this government, during the four years of the incumbency of Mr. Lin coln, and any set of men he can draw around him ? It is perfectly absurd to expect any such thing. Why, the ravens in the wilderness, with their mouths open, could not be more ex pectant than are the abolition party of the North that it is to be gratified by acts of a pos itive character emanating from the Lincoln ad ministration. (Cheers.) I would ask the friends of the republican party, and particular ly the press, where do you find the elements that suggest a Jerry rescue? Where do you find the principles which generate these liberty laws in many of the North n States which make it criminal for any State officer to lend the least assistance to the execution of the Fu gitive Slave law? Where do you find the prin ciples that give birth to John Brown raids by a set of men called insane—and I hope they were —and those who seek to excite the slaves of the South to rebellion, to murder and rapine ? What is the instinct of the human inind—what is the impulse of the intellect that creates the doctrine of the higher law as expounded by William H. Seward ? And whence comes those two expressive words “irrepressible conflict” that fill the ear and excite the souls of so many people throughout this region of our country ? How are they to be satisfied? “By an equal and just administration of the general govern ment ;” will any man say, “By not interfering with slavery in the District of Columbia; by not attempting to meddle with slavery in the States where slavery is justified by the local law ?” Will that suffice ? Is there any man in the possession of his senses who believes that this aspiration for human freedom, this fanaticism excited in the same direction, this sentiment (if such it be) however wrong, that belongs to nearly all of the North represented by the republican party, will be entirely satis fied by a strict adherence to the constitution and the laws of the country under the admin istration pretending to be friendly to freedom and hostile to slavery. THE HOMICIDE IN LUMPKIN. Editor Exqiirer : I write to inform you of a very sad affair which occurred in our town yes terday evening. Dr. J. L. Porter and John M. Cain, both of this county, the former of this place, got into a difficulty with each other, when Dr. Porter was shot by Cain and immediately killed. It appears that Dr. P. was under the influence of strong drink at the time, and whilst Cain was preparing to leave for home, he arres ted him, and menacing him with a drawn knife, he held against Cam. Cain’s refusal, by attemp ting to get away, I suppose, caused Porter to assault him with the knife, when Cain turned and fired upon him twice with a repeater, both shots taking effect with the result I have stated. Cain is lodged in prison to await his trial. Dr. P. leaves an interesting family, consisting of a wife and two or three children, to mourn his | untimely death. p. Lumpkin, Ga., Oct. 24, 1860. The papers mention one lady at the Prince’s ball in Cincineinti who was distiguished from the rest of the women by wearing no jewelry. . Her name is Groesbeck, and we would bet a small sum she was the best dressed woman of the lot. Baron Renfrew observed that the lady was barren of bijouterie, and selected her as a dancing partner on that account. Over-dres sing is the crying sin of our American women, and the lady who, on so notable an occasion, had the courage, self-reliance, and good taste to dress with elegant simplicity, deserves iminor- 1 tai memory. Let MissG. be illustrious forever as the woman who danced with the Prince and I didn’t wear jewels! Unprecedented Success of the Fair. We are informed, says the Atlanta Ameri can, of the 26th, that the receipts of this week up to last night, had exceeded $3,500, which is nearly forty per cent, more than thev were last year, and that all the expenses will be more than met. This is, in the highest degree, grat lfy‘nß to all its friends, especially as fears were enter amed that the stringency of the time7 itics 6 woid’d* ll^ the unsett l ed condition of pol m ou have a depressing effect We would not be surpassed if the actual reeeints summed up nearly $4,000, or about fifty L.r cent, increase over those of last year The Oil Region of Pennsylvania.—A respondent of the Boston Post, writing front among the oil works of Pennsylvania, says:— The hotels are crowded, people often sle.jp ' ing three in a bed, and one hears nothing talk ed of but “patrolmen,” surface indications,” s “boring,” “territory,” “pumping,” Ac; land lords, doctors, lawyers, ministers, blacksn>iius and almost everybody has an interest in a w< II bored. As to the election, it is entirely fori vt ten in the eagerness of securing a fortune. A politician drove up to old Father Raynona’s 1 Rural House, in Franklin, (the old mac».has , two wells, pumping fifty barrels daily) and. af ter getting his dinner, commenced pumping the old gentleman by asking, “How is poli tics?” “Don’t know any such well ar»uYid here,” replied R. “But,” says the straigcr, “what is the prospect for Douglas or Brechin - ridge?” “Oh,” says Boniface, “I don’t know, it all depends on whether there are any surface indications.” “But,” continues his guest, will fusion go down among you oil diggers ?’ “Fu sion,” exclaims the landlord, “well, I don’t know; some of these chaps called geologists says that there must be fusion below, but my ’ opinion is that the d—l has somethii g.to do ■ with it down there before we get it.” “But,” I says the politician, “are you in favor of squat ter sovereignty in the Territories?' • “No, I will shoot anybody who dares to sqt*ft on any of my territory, and I own four miles on San dy Creek.” “Give me my horse,” says the ; stranger—and vamoosed. A Female Duelist.—A truly romantic duel was lately fought in the environs of the not very romantic capitol of Prussia. A young lady, it is stated, of good family, having acci dentally come into possession of a challenge addressed to her lover, resolved upon with holding the letter and fighting herself. In credible as it may appear, this intention she carried out. Dressed in manly habiliments, • she met the challenger in the Jungfern Haide, a forest in the neighborhood of the capital, and her opponent having but once seen,- and that imperfectly at night, the man who had offend ed him, unconsciously accepted the new comer as his legitimate foe. Distances were measur ed, seconds placed, pistols fired, when the lady came off scatheless, after wounding her antago nist in the shoulder. The name of the fight ing fair is unknown; but a judicial inquiry having been set on foot concerning the crime of “intentional manslaughter,” the details of ■ the affair will probably soon gratify the curiosi ty of the public. —i» FROM RICHMOND. A dispatch in the Herald of the 27th, says: “There is no doubt the President has become thoroughly alarmed. Hitherto he has trusted that, however threatening his portence might be, the crisis would not occur until alter the expiration of his ter in ; but Secretary Cobb, who returned some days ago from Georgia, has disturbed even this consolation, by informing him that, from the general sentiment which he found to pervade that State, there is no doubt remaining that she is prepared to go with South Carolina, and withdraw herself from the Union upon the election of Lincoln ; that Secretary Cobb would be compelled, by the secession of Georgia, to resign from the Cabinet and return to his State. Great excitement prevails here, and the for mation of companies of Minute Men is begin ning. Gov. Wise has placed himself in the front of the movement, and his great populari ty and immense powers as a popular orator will certainly carry the State of Virginia with the<Southern States. MILITARY CONVENTION. The Military Convention which assembled in this City on the 28th November, 1859, passed the following resolution : Resolved, That when this Convention do ad journ, it adjourn to meet in Milledgeville on the 2nd Monday in November, 1860. We are informed that the Baldwin Blueshave appointed the following gentlemen as delegates: Capt. Geo. Doles, Lieut. John II: ss, Lieut. Bris coe, Lieut. Kenan. We hope the press will at once call attention to the subject, and that every Military Corps in the State will send its representatives to the Convention on the 2nd Monday in November next. — Southem Recorder. Mrs. Douglas.—We learn from the Memphis Appeal that Mrs. Douglas accompanies her hus band on his Southern tour. We reckon our Breckinridge friends will permit us all to throw up our beavers in honor of a beautiful and ac complished woman.— Nashville. Banner. Singular hut Horrible Accident at Bir mingham, Conn.—On Saturday last, Henry Hor ton, an operator in Atwater’s Iron and Steel Works, while rolling, was pierced through the upper portion of his left thigh with a f inch oval bar of iron, red hot, or more properly at what is called a white heat. The rod grazed the bone, severing the femoral artery; and being 25 feet long, 15 feet of it passed through the flesh before it could be cut and the short end withdrawn from the limb. A remarkable pres ence of mind in one of the workmen arrested the otherwise fatal hemorrage by cording the limb above the wound until Drs. Beardsley and Pin ney arrived, who took up the artery, dressed the wound and conveyed the unfortunate man to his residence. He was on Monday in a very low condition, and feeble hopes are entertained by his physicians of his recovery. An Extraordinary Military Company.—A volunteer company has recently been organized in Virginia, which, we think, is unmatched in material. It numbers fifty-five, and of these fifty are in uniform. Os the fifty, two are min isters of the gospel, (one Baptist and one Me thodist,) two are deacons, two class leaders two lawyers, one doctor, one magistrate, two clerks of courts, two deputy clerks, forty pro fessors of religion, fifteen who do not profess, but are morally and religiously inclined, seven who pray in public, twenty-six sons of temper ance, twenty-nine temperance men, and of these last mentioned, a very few drink ardent spirits at all—none of them excessively—and last but not least, they are all reliable and true. - There’s a company for you ! Hurrah for the Old Dominion! Reader, there’s no joke about this ; 'tis fact.— Richmond Enquirer. The YX inans “Segar” Ship.—W. C. Bryant of the New York Post, thus does up his im pressions of the Winans steamer, which he late ! ly visited: “I do not know what may be the expecta tions of the Messrs. Winans, in regard to its speed, but the talk at Baltimore, is of making the passage to Europe in four or five days, bearing with it the mails and specie, and a few passengers. As I looked on this enormous iron shuttle, the velocity of which can be scarce ly more afiected by storm and Jiead winds than that of a fish, and thought of it darting through j the sea with the speed which is claimed for it, it occurred to me that if a sailing vessel should come in its way it must be pierced through and through, like a pine shingle by a bullet.” How the New York Ladies afford to “Shine.”—A curious commentary on social life m this metropolis, says the New York Times, may be gathered from a fact which Rev. Dr. Tyng exhumed from the reminiscent rubbish of the grand Ball, and gave to an audience in his own church the other evening. According to the reverend gentleman’s statement, an eminent jeweler’s house of this city cleared, from dia monds rented to ladies to glitter in the presence of Royalty, a sufficient sum to pay thu rent of their store’ for a year.

Its length is sev enteen teet six inches, height seven feet three j, inches, with the head sixteen feet above the waterline. The sails project on each side, in , the shape of wings, and a novel mode of pro pulsion is adopted by using a pair of feet at the bottom of the vessel, which are construct ed of steel and web, so contrived that in mov j ing backward it expands, thus imitating the [• motion of a swan’s foot, and propelling the vessel. Motion is given to these feet by means of a lever, worked like the handle of a fire en gine. The yatcht is provided with a cookery apparatus and a dining table. <ln removing the top of the table, ladies can fish through the opening in the bottom of the vessel with ! entire privacy.
