Oobb la to be returned to the United Oates Senate, In the plaee of Mr. Dawson, lathe event the Southern Bights part; have a ma jority in the ensuing Legislature.” Where the state ment is found, we sre not informed—how Mr. Cobb’s election as Mr. Dawson’s successor would put the former "in the place of” the latter, we don’t com prehend—and how there can be " a majority in the ensuing Legislature,” of a party whioh has no exist ence, is not explained. ** It is believed by some persons,” (the Republican's editors, we suppose,) “ that a partition of honors was agreed to by the Convention which nominated Mr. Johnson.” As we were not in the Convention, we can’t say as to any agreement for “ a partition of honors,” and, like the Republican, “ we do not pre tend to knew anything about it ourselves.” “ All we know, or believe we know, is,” that Judge Johnson would have been nominated whether Gov. Cobb de sired or not " to be returned to tho United States Senate, in the place of Mr. Dawson.” And further, as we both believe and know Gov. Cobb and Judge Johnson to be Democrats, without looking for any other reason, we are willing to say, " hence Gov. Cobb’s support of Mr. Johnson, and Mr. Johnson’s support of Gov. Cobb." Ab we have no expectation that & u Southern Rights Legislature ” will meet in Millcdgevillo this winter, wo think that “ Gov. Cobb stands about as much chance as tee (of the Republican) of boinar made Sen ator of a Southern JK*hs* legislature." What a Dmiocuaw tiBaiSLATORB will do in the premises, «me, if not the speculations of the Republican, must determine. From “a 8outbem Rights Legislature,” and 11 tho Southern Rights party,” the Republican descends to “ that wing of tho party ” and " that branch of tho party,” without having explained how “ the South ern Rights party ” has a “ wing ” or a " branch,” or to which wing or branch of this “ Southern Rights party” Gov. Cobb belongs. That the Democratic party (if by "the party” is meant the Democratic party,) has wings or branches—except In so far as when in action and marshalling its hosts, like a great army, It has its centre and right and left wings—wo are not advised—the Republican may explain, as it is not without experience in the manceuvring of its own ranks. Bat as that paper seems to bo oblivions on this point, its memory may bo refreshed by a short reference to its own " ranks," but especially its “files.” We beg leave to Bnggest that tho latter would show its allusion to “ Scott Whigs " to be ill- timed and unfortunate. “ We do not pretend to know” mneb, if “ anything, about it ourselves,” but “ wo do know, or believe we know,” that a reference to those very files against which the serpentine Republican is biting so hard now, would show that in the memora ble contest of that memorable year 1852, the memora- bio leader of those same “ Scorr Whigs ”—we mean old Chapultcpeo himself—came in for a pretty good share of the rasping as well os filing, of this same Republican, tnr hU real or supposed intluiaoy with one William H. Seward 1 And farther, we “ know, or believe we know,” that in or on these same files, towards the close of tho memorable contest to which vre have referred, in close proximity, were found tho electoral tickets of these Bamo “ Scorr Whigs ” and the identical “Mr. Jenkins” who did not support the hero of Chippewa, bnt on the contrary, was tho “ Tertium Quid ” candidate for Vice-President on the Webster ticket. Bo it remembered, however, that wo have not said that tho “Conservatives,” the “Union Conservatives,” or the “ Republican Citizens ” have any “ wings” or “ branches” to their party. Oh! no we neTer mention it and, would we could add, ** It« name Is never heard !»* The Republican's allusion to “ Mr. Dawson,” In connection with the “ hearty support of Mr. Jen kins,” is very unfortunate. Mr. Dawson, “ we know, or believe we know,” was in tho Baltimore Conven tion that nominated Gen. Scorr—(we believe ho did not pledge tho vote of Georgia for him)—Mr. Jenkins was in Georgia, and afterwards ran on his own hook, and we “ know, or bellevo wo know,” that daring that same campaign of 1852, the nearest these gen tlemen were to being together was, that both their tickets were published, towards the heel of the race, (the quarter or back stretch, we don’t know which,) in tho same files of the Republican. What a com mentary on the union and harmony of the re-united Scorr and anti-Scorr “ Republican Citizens!’’ Seriously and finally: does the Republican believe that the election of Mr. Jknxiks would tend, in the least, towards the re-election of Mr. Dawson ? If it does, wo don’t “ know," bnt we believe it is doomed to grievous disappointment, “ Tho Scott men who are friends of Mr. Dawson ” may do him some good- bat, oar belief for it, Mr. Jenkins’ influence, if exert ed at all, would operate in another quarter ; and without knowing, or pretending to know, as much about the “ Republican CUizena ” as tho Republican knows about the wings or branches of the so-called “ Southern Righto party," wo bavo too high an opin ion of the sagacity of Senator Dawson to suppose him ignorant of the same thing. After all, we think it likely that the knowledge of the Republican, upon tho subjects which are embraced in the extract from its columns, at the bead of this article, is abont as dear as its belief that Mr. Jenkinb is the author of “ the Georgia platform.” On this last point, wo refer it to the article, In this morning’s issao, taken from the Constitutionalist and Republic. ic: Yotkoo.tin In lb, following ln adill- hu boon nliMdj rewind by iol.ireph i fitidLiND^-Pirllnment wu prorogued On tho 30th. ‘ Amnion wu not mention,d at nil.

Trial of Bishop Donne. Camden, Sept. 5—The Court of Bishops met at 10 o’clock this morning. After prayer by Bishop Otey, spectators were re quested to retire. Bishop Doane protested against tho nso of a small anti-chnmber, adjoining tho court room, by the coun sel for the prosecution. He said It was giving them an advantage not pos sessed bv his counsel and friends. If the doors were not to do opened to tho public, ho thought they should be entirely closed, and he protested against proceeding until said room was cleared. Bishop Meade, of the prosecution, objected to the motion, and said the room had been rented by the prosecution, and no persons occupied it bat the coun sel for the presenting Bishops. Bishop Doane objected that there were no counsel yet on either side recognized by tho Court, nnd the gentlemen occupying the adjoining room, should be included in the order which excluded the public from the Court room. After a brief debate, tho motion prevailed, nnd Bishops Mcilvaino and Burgess notified their friends iu tho small room to leave. Accordingly tho legal gentlemen, Mr. Ilalsted, and others, had to evacuate. Bishops Otev and McCoskroy were appointed a committee to clear the stairs, and in a few minutes tho following order of the Committee was posted on the street door; “ Persons, not members of tho Coart, are requested □ot to stand in the entry, or on the stairs. The door keeper Is requested to enforce order.” In the absence of Bn. Wainwright, the Secretary, from sickness, Bishop Williams, of Connecticut, was appointed Secretary. the motion made yesterday by Bi3bop Whitting- ham, to hear the committee of tho Diocese, came up. Bishop Donne addressed tho Court at length, urg ing the justness of this motion. He warned the Court not to trench upon tho rights of an independent diocese. It would be a bad prece dent for the Church to do that, which she had pro tested against Rome for doing. This error the Court would commit, if it refused to hear the Diocese of N. Jersey. _ Bishop D. continued speaking Dp to half-past 12. It is doubtful whether tbe question will be decided to-day. The Court is not quite full yet, three Bishops being abseut.

A gentleman travelling through Germany, thus describes a novel method of fastening a horse, which he saw put in practice by a German blacksmith : “ As soon as breakfast was over, I generally enjoy ed tlio luxury of riding about town, and in passing tbe shop of a blacksmith, tho manner in wulch he tackled and shod a vicious horse amused me. On tbe outside of tho wall of the house two rings were firm ly fixed, to one of which tho patient’s head was lashed, close to the ground ; the hind foot to be shod, stretch ed to tho atraost extent of the leg, was then secured by the other ring, nbout five iect high, by a cord which passed through a cloven hitch, fixed to the root of the poor creature's tail. Tho hind foot was consequently very much higher than the head; in deed it was quite exalted, and pulled so heavily at the tail, that the animal seemed auitcanxious to keep his other foot on terra Anna. With one foot in the heavens, it did not suit him to kick ; with his nose pointing to the infernal regions, he could not conve niently rear; and as a heavy band was constantly pulling at his tail, the horse at last gave up the point, and quietly submitted to be shod.” Railroad Conductors.—On tho English railroads tho conductor at the starting of the train receives from the hands of the proper officer a chronometer of the most approved construction; this chronometer is closed, and the conductor cannot open it. When he arrives at the end of his route, ho bands tbe chronom eter to the officer appointed to receive it, who notes tbe time and compares it with the standard. Tho conductor of a railroad passenger train is in a position of greater responsibility than the captain of a compa ny of soldiers. Nothing can be plainer than that only men of prudence, discretion and intelligence should be selected, that oven theyBhould not be entrusted with the charge of a train till they have been thor oughly instructed, and that they should be paid Buch a compensation as will make it an object for men of such cnaracter and qualifications to adopt the business with tbe view of remaining in it permanently taking their chances to rise to be masters of transportation, superintendents and presidents of railroads, to which tbe best of them might reasonably look. In all cases, chronometers, the best that science and skill can supply, should be furnished to the con ductors- They should not be allowed to run by tho ir own time keepers, but only by those tested and kept constantly accurate by tho company. Even the Camden and Amboy railroad, we nnderstand, docs this; and this furnlshoa sufficient evidenco not merely that it is important for tbo safety of tbe train, but thatit is, on the whole, the cheapest policy,—Prctu- dence Journal.

Nor will we even quarrel with tho unquestionable privi lege or the “ Republican citizens" to call him illus trious. We shall not find fault oven with tho amiable enthnstasm of Mr. Bartow for his illustrious friend, whom he glorifies in tbe following terms, as reported of his Effingham speech: “ He was unambitious, honest, faithful and able—a mojf noble man— one of tho noblest of his species, with all the attributes of greatness, made in the image of his maker, and true to this impress of Divinity?'

Bombay news, accord ing to the Times, dates to the 2d of July. It men tions a current report “ that the Bnrmese field force is to be immediately broken up, and it is surmised that tho Pegu division will then be divided into two commands, of which one will be allotted to the Ben gal, and the other to the Madras army.” This, of coarse, refers to tbe British forces in Burmah ; bnt it is immediately afterwards stated that nothing is known of the intentions of the King of Ava, and that the Burmese appeared still to expect the British to advance on their capital, and confined themselves to defensive measures, such as making new: stockades between Prome and Mecaday.

Coul.lre CO ; ment from the opinions of the press, thero is very little doubt bat there hi very general acquiescence in tbe measure. The only objections we can see to the law, are that it will encourage Idleness and interfeto, with tho col lection of debts. We think these objections are rath er plausible than sound. A man who lias industry enough to aoenmnlato money sufficient to bay a ne gro by hla own labor will hardly fail to increase In enerjnr whon ho bos a fair prospect of adding to his wealth by his joint labor of himself and his slave. In deed, the greatest Incentive to idleness is the hope lessness of more than a competency. Furthermore, no law can be passed interfering with the lien of pre existing debts. The Legislature would not fell there fore, to limit the operation of the exemption to debts, to be contracted after its passage. In that event, no hardships coaid result from the law, as credit could be obtained upon tbo property exempt from execu tion. Thero arc many reasons which could be adduced to Bbow the policy of passing a similar law in Georgia.

Fifth—Was tho fourth Resolution, as contained in the report of the Committee, or as amended by the Convention, among the resolutions submitted by Mr. Jenkins to tho Committee ? All the above questions wc submit to Mr. Stephens and to Mr. Toombs, equally with Mr. Jenkins, except the first, which is addressed more especially to Mr. Jenkins. We challenge these gcntlomcu to answer theso questions ? If they will not do so in writing, they can do bo on tho Btump, they will have frequent op portunities. These questions are not put blindly and experi mentally. If these gentlemen will answer them, their answers will prove our position, that Mr. Jen kins is not the author of the Georgia Platform. He is not entitled to the monopoly oi that honor. The platform he submitted, first to his friends, and next to tho Committee, differed materially and in es sential points from that adopted by tho Convention. Wo speak from direct, positive and reliable informa tion. Let the gentlemen named, or either of them, deny our assertions if they can. Let any member of tho Committee of thirty-three deny it. Let the original drarght from Augusta bo produced. Let it, as amended and submitted to the Committee, be pro duced ! Show up the documents. If thoyare lost or destroyed, let the witnesses tes tify to their contents, to tho best of their recollec tion I Failing in this, the claim set up, which is to hand down tho name of Mr. Jenkins to posterity, is si lenced. We freely accord to Mr. Jenkins his full meed of credit for his share in the conBtractlonof tho Georgia Platform. At the same time we are equally free to say.that if the construction had been left exclusively to Mr. Jenkins, tho platform ho would have placed the peoplo of Georgia upon, weald not have been satis factory to them; nor If satisfactory, would it have guinea for her that distinction uniong her sister States that is claimed as the result of the Georgia Platform. There is one notable incident in the history of the Convention which wo call to the notice of the gentle men intcrogated, presuming it will re".esh their re collection oi other facts going to show that the Geor gia Platform is not now wholly in accordance with the views entertained in the Committee by Mr. Jen kins. The fourth resolution was so worded in tho Com mittee as to embrace abolition of slavery in the Bis- ' ‘ ness as among the causes ’isruption." Mr. Jenkins „ _ 4 . r Committee, the incorpora tion of this contingency among these causes. He contended that Congress had the constitutional power to abolish slavery in the District, and would probably, sooner or later, exercise it, and objected to tho State being committed to resistance, even to disruption, for any such cause. He was overruled, and the fourth resolution, with this contingency embraced in it, was reported by tho Committee. it is very much tho habit of tho Whigs not only to put under contribution all the legitimate capital be longing to and available for any of their candidates, but to borrow from each other, and to mako use of the same capital for different candidates, successive ly, to suit each exigency as it may arise. For in stance, Mr. Stephens, in a recent speech in Augusta, claimed for Mr. Jenkins the chief credit of having or iginated, advocated and pushed through the State Railroad. The Savannah Republican has recently been blowing the trumpet very loud for Mr. Bartow, Whig candidate for Congress in the 1st district, on the same grouds. Yet it will be remembered, that on both occasions, when the Hon. Geo. W. Crawford was a candidate for Govenor, the Whigs insisted that he was tho leading originator, champion and mainstav of of that great State enterprise. Having mado all the □so of the assertion they could in this caso, they now seek to relieve Gov. Crawford from the honors then claimed for him, to help Mr. Jenkins through this canvass. It is not to be doubted that if Mr. Asbury Hull, or Mr. Andrew J. Miller, or any other promin ent Whig in the Legislature, contemporaneously with these gentlemen, had been tbe candidate for Govonor,/ie too would lmvo been lauded as the origi nator and champion of the State Road. This towering plume is to bo transferred, succes sively, from one Whig cap to another, to win the gaze and catch the votes of the people, without mnch regard to original rights. But all this time tbe whigs do not breath tho name of a single one of the long ar ray of intelligent and patriotic Democrats whoso voices and influence were devoted so effectively to the cause of tbe State Road. So with regard to the State finances. The claim, above all others, apart from party grounds which the Whigs urged in favor of Gov. Crawford’s reflection in 1845, was that he was a great financier—that his financial talents bad achieved the redemption of onr State credit from depression and dishonor, brought on it by the Central Bank, and that he, pre-eminent ly over all others in the State, had placed it on a sound basis. The Democrats need only be reminded of this to recall distinctly the leading features of that canvass. Bat now this proud distinction, bo noisily claimed for Gov. Crawford, is sought to be transfer red from him to Mr. Jenkins. In the same speech of Mr. Stephens at Angusta, and no doubtinhisspcech- es elsewhere, Mr. Jenkins is brought forward aa the great Negkkr of onr age and 8tate, that won immor tality by the splendor of his fiscal achievements du ring tho same period of financial difficulty. These clap-traps are treated by tbe Whigs as con venient garments, fitting m well one candidate as another. With these, each one is decorated and mus tered through a campaign. When he has fought through, they are cast off and fitted on to the next comer. We presame we shall have the pleMnreof seeing several other Whigs, or “ Republican Citi zens" thus rigged ont in future campaigns m they are successively pat in the field m candidate for Gov ernor. Had Mr. Btephons, or Mr. Toombs, or Senator Daw son been tbe candidate for Governor, there would con say bnt that it may yet be invoked for these gen tlemen on some snob future occasion. What Was It?—This is the inquiry in Central Ohio. Abont 9 o’clock, on the morning of Ang. 20th, explosions were heard at Dayton. Piqua, Troy, Ac.j of a singular and •startling character. Most pereona | describe the sonnd as nnlifco anything that tHM ever heard, while they compare it to distant t^^^H cannon, Ac. Houses were sensibly shaken by the re ports. Sovernl persons in Miami county saw two meteors pass swiftly along the horizon at tho timo these noises were heard, which they describe as at}oot the size of a barrel and very brilliant. At Troy, the people in the Court home rushed ont at tbo shaking of the building, supposing It was the-shock of an I earthquake.

It is also wellkF’wn that tho slave holding interest is much strong**" < n Middle and Southern Georgia, than It is in mountains. No evil consequences havo ns yet arisen from this disproportion. It Is not, however* sound poliev to break down all barriers which might by possibility create sectional differen ces in tlio state and make our entire population hom ogeneous? We think so, and therefore urge tho con sideration of this subject npon tbe attention of the Georgia press at this time. Let us hear from you gentlemen.—Columbus Times. From tbo Houtgomerj Advertiser. The North Carolina Standard shows up, in short order, the hypocrisy of Southern Whigs who accuse President Pierce or favoring tho freesoilere. Every one must be amused at tbe dilemma in which theso carping gentlemen place themselves in their puerile attempts to continue tho slavery agitation. They would mako ont the President as hostile to our insti tutions because, they say, he appoints freesoilere to office, and at the same time they abuse him for ap pointing Southern ultruists, real died-in-the-wool pro- slavery men. They find it hard to sustain themselves, even to their own satisfaction, in these rediculous po sitions. As it is incumbent upon them to oppose tho administration, thoy should pick outsome more feasi- able cause of complaint, and one in which they are not so completely stultified as in one so inappropri ately chosen. We make an extract from tho article of the Stand ard to which we refer above : " Bat what right have whig editors to complain on such a subject? Who passed the fugitive slave law ? The friends of Pierce, Buchanan, Douglass and Cass —Northern Democrats, with no Whig in the Senate, and only three Whigs in the House sustaining it. Mr. Webster, it is true, staked himself like a man, as he was, for tho “ compromise;" bathe was denounc ed nnd reviled for it by Massachusetts and New York Whigs, and the nomination for the Presidency con ferred, by their instrumentality, upon “ Seward’s own”—Winfield Scott. Tho South went by the board in that Convention—its rights were • slaughtered,’ as Mr. Clay was in the Convention of 1848 ; and it was done because tho Whig Party North, as a party, was the great abolition party—because the strength of the Whigs was thero, and not in the South—and because members of that Convention, representing themselves and a greedy horde of expectants, were determined, at whatever hazard or cost, to obtain the offices and patronage which a Whig triumph would bring along with it. Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Webster were set aside becaase they were not * available’— that is, because they had gone for the * compromise,’ and lost popularity by it; and Southern men not on ly acquiesced in this movement, but they sustained it in Convention, defended it before a slave-holding people, and endeavored to humbug them into tho be lief that they were the exclusive and most particular champions of their rights and interests. This is Southern Whiggery in its alliance with Northern anti-slavery IVhiggery ; and yet this same Southern Whiggery has the effrontery to censure President Pierce forhisappointraents, and to question bis sound ness on the subject of Blavery 1” Wo to-day hoist tho names of the standard bearers ortho Democracy. They were chosen on the 6th inst., at a meeting of the delegates selected for that pur pose, which assembled at the Court House at 12 M. Joseph Sturgis was nominated for the Senate by acclamation,and MessrsMcDougald and Crawford for Representatives, were chosen by a majority of two-thirds on the first ballot, and on motion tho nom ination was then made unanimous. The ticket represents fairly the varied phases of po litical sentiment which are supposed to exist in the Democratic party; and if the friends of each candidate will cordially support the others the triumpliant elec tion of the ticket fs a positive certainty. The candi dates are all well known to tho people of Muscogee ; they are men of talent and known popularity and pledged to tbe support of Pierce's administration and the great cardinal principles of the Democratic party. A strong pull a long pull and a harmonious pull will be sure to put them through.—Columbus Times, 30th. A Good Man’s Wish.—I freely confess to yon, that I would rather, when I am laid in the grave, someone in his manhood would stand over hie and say—“ There lies one who was a real lriend to me, and privately warned me of the dangers of the young ; no one knew it, but lie aided rao in tiie timo of need. I owe what I am to him.” Or I would rather have somo widow, with choking utterance, telling her children,—“ There is your friend and mine. He vis ited me in my affliction, and found you, ray son employer, and you, my daughter a happy home virtuous family.” I say I would rather that i persons should stand at my grave, than to havccrect- cd over it the most beautifully sculptured monument of Parian or Italian marble. The hearts broken ut terances of reflections of post kindness, and tho tears of grateful memory shed upon the grave, are more valuable, in my estimation, than the most costly cenotaph ever reared.—Dr> Shaip. Secret op Matrimonial Happinesb.—Rschokkc gives this advice to a brido : “In the first solitary hour after the ceremony, take the bridegroom, and demaud a solemn vow of him, and give him ouo in return. Promise one another sincerely, never, not even in jest, to wrangle with each other; never to bandy words or indulge in the least ill humor. Nev er, I say never! Wrangling in jest, and putting on an air of ill humor merely to tease becomes earnest by practice. Mark that! Next, promise each other, sincerely and solemnly, never to have a secret from each other, under whatever pretext, with whatever cause it might be. You must continually and every moment, see clearly into each other’s bosom. Even when one of yon has committed a fault, wait not an instant, but confess it freely—let it cost tears, but confess it. And as you keep nothing secret from each other, so, on the contrary, preserve the privacies of your house, marriage state and heart, from father, mother, sister, brother, annt, and all the world. You too, with God’s help, build your own quiet world ; every third or fourth one whom you draw into it with von, will form a party, and stand between you two. That should never be. Promise this to each other. Renew tho vow at each temptation. You will find yonr account in it. Your souls will grow as it were together, and at last they will become as one. Ab, if many a young pair bad on their wedding-day known this secret, how many marriages were happier than alas! they are 1” Peru and Bolivia.—The advices from Lima down to July 25th, leave these two governments still in a belligerent attitude. Bolivia had protested against the occupancy by Peru of the Port and town of Co- bija by her troops. This looks like a determination F iublics. Peru will no doubt proseeute ntention of making war against President Belzo. for the purpose of restoring the Bolivian administration, which he overthrew on coming into power, and prob ably with success. The Wakulla, Fla., Times says: “ A wagon load of new cotton, six bales, the first ot the season, was received yesterday by Messrs. McNanght and Ormond, from the Wirtland plantation.
