lately been enacted there. If actual violence had been . tiered Mr. Hughes and Knight, he might have acted difter oiitly. especially, if called on, as in Thompson’s case, to pre vent a mob. Again, there is a discrepancy between the statement of Mr. Hughes nrnl that of Mr. Knight in relation to the character j the mob which followed their heels. Mr. Knight says there were, he supposes, 2000 persons in the crowd, 1500 of whom “ ere negroes and 500 worthless whites, and that lie few respectable persons among them. Hughes, on the contrary parades the names of some half dozen prominent abo litionists as being of the highest character and standing who endeavored to obstruct the law. llow is this ? Is Mr. 11. to j*> understood to say that these men, notorious abolitionists as they are. are men of the highest standing, and appeared in a street mob against him ? And if it were so, does it show that a'.l the respectable portion of the Boston people were ! aiding and abetting them in obstructing the law? We think nut, as the scene above described at Faneuil Hall, and much other evidence forces us to believe. In conclusion, why Ims Mr. Hughes said nothing about be ing called back to Boston at the instance of Mr. Webster, to give deposition against the United States officers, for failing, to do their duty ? And why has he not stated in this docu ment what he has said to a respectable tndividual, since his re turn, that he had no doubt whatever that fugitive slates could now be arrested icithout difficulty either in Boston or New York ! Notwithstanding, then, all the rascally treatment received by Mr. Hughes, for which the parties concerned will be made to smoke, wc would have Mr. 11. understand that his one sided published “ statement ” cannot be received as satis factory evidence that all Boston is in a state of nullification and that therefore the people of Bibb county, to remedy the ovil, should send red-hot nullilk-rs and disunionists to the ap proaching Convention ? The game is too transparent to de prive any sensible person. You ‘can’t quite come its Mr. Hughes ! “Still Later from Boston.—v letter was received \ here by Thursday night's mail from a highly respectable Southern gentleman, in lhtston, on the 15th, which states explicitly, that “ Public opinion is note in favor of sustaining the law, but unfortunately, when Hughes first came, the loud clamor against it, overawed a great many, who wanted to avoid a riot and bloodshed. If the thing were to be done over again to-day, it would be very different, for that which ! was then popular (resistance by the negroes) is seen to be subversive of all law and order. Indeed the very fact, that j Billy (Crafts) had to make off and quit the country shows j that the abolitionists had to yield their position and aeknowl- ; ■edge that they could not protect fugitives against the law.’ j The writer further states Hughes did his part well and that ; there is a strong feeling for him and the South, in that city, j •Ac. Ac. . Hopkins. Alien & Cos . —The Columbus‘Times’ ! •of the 15th contains a correspondence between the linn of Brokaw A: Clemons, Merchants of that city, .and Messrs Hopkins, Allen & Cos., of Xew York, which deserves a passing notice from us. The latter in speaking of the charges made against them by the Xew York ‘Day Hook,’ remark that the said charges were “amplified into a more open and posi tive charge of abolitionism by the Georgia Citizen,” •fee. In answer to this we have to say, that if Messrs. Hopkins, Allen A Cos., meant to assert a barefaced and impudent falsehood of us, they were eminently successful. We have amplified nothing, but rather diminished the point and pith of the Day Book’s strictures. On examination it will be seen that all we said was justified by the statement of the Day Book, which paper classed Messrs Ilopkins, Allen A; Cos. with Bowen & McXamec and other notorious abo litionists, as using the gains aquired from their trade with the South to promote abolitionist doc trines. If they were wronged in this statement the fault belonged to the “Day Book.” Again Messrs Hopkins, Allen <fc Cos., in their card published by us, Xov. ‘J, quote as follows from the J >ay Book : “Henry, Smith A Townsend take’the Tribune, and Corn -i W & Vhrtpiitryr.'anil advertise in them, paying tfu .'ii in arfav” labor profits. They never gave a cent tow paper which dc f.-n4a tile South, since they have been iti business. The ■ante may be said of Perkins A Warren, Ilopkins A Allen, s dozen others, whose names we shall have occasion to j give hereafter.’ Herein the charge is distinctly made that they patronized papers hostile to the South but “never gave a cent to a paper which defends the South.’’ In answer this, Messrs 11. A. Cos. say, as follows : “Since the commencement of our business, we have taken th* .Journal of Commerce, which it will he acknowledged, 3>rvtty strongly “defends the South.’’ M e take also other • papers of various characters and politics, but not the Day Book.'’ Will these gentlemen please inform the public of the South, whether any of the “other ‘papers of vari ous characters and politics ‘ which they take, are of ’ the abolition stamp ? This question would not have Itwn put, but for the fact that 11. A. <fc Cos. have shown rather more feeling than can be reconciled ■with their entire innocence of the charge laid to their door, by the Day Book. If they are not very careful of the truth ot their own amplifications on • tliis subject, they may find it necessary to vindicate j themselves from another charge of nearly equal mag- j nitiule —XfjT that of looking on in silence and hear- i ing their friends of the South, whom they profess ; to love, ingloriously reviled by their next door neigh- : ’ors. (a the mean while, let them answer categor ically and unequivocally, the question put to them. Have you not patronized abolition Xewspnpers, and •supported abolitufci measures by your pecuniary contributions, or other wise, within the last twelve month i Should you deem this query an impertin ent one or refuse to answer it, it will take snore than threat from vou, of a law suit against us lor a li bel, to induce us to believe you as innocent as you fcndyour Xorthcrn friends with Southern interests, Messrs Brokaw A: Clemons, of Columbus, would try to make the public believe. 1 hat’s all! Sew Paper in Macon.—Mr. James T. Ells, a young gentleman of this city; has issued Proposals for the publication of anew family paper in Macon, under the title of the ‘Macon Weekly Transcript’ which is tq be *ieutr.-u c iu politics, and devoted to me cause of Temperance, good inoi’T *, Arc. Ac.— The Proprietor proposes to “furnish a Journal that will be acceptable to men of all parties and all creeds, —in which Belle Lettres generally, Agriculture, the Mechanic Arts, Temperance, and a sound morality, ‘ill all receive a due share of attention.” Price, £2 P r annum in advance. Ur. E. has already secured a subscription list ‘hick will warrant him in an undertaking of such ipeatlabor and responsibility, and we hope he will succeed to the extent of his most sanguine expecta tions. Military Schools. —An able writer in the Sel- Ala.. Reporter, recommends each Southern State establish a Military School with a view to train ■up their youth, in a manner which will enure to the greater safety of the South, in any crisis that Ina y befalit. We look upon the suggestion, favor ably, because we are satisfied that the mathematical .and scientific branches of education, which are of mot practical use in this utilitarian age, can best be attained in schools of this character, besides affording h greater amount of physical strength and health, th ; m in the ordinary course of classical studies at °nr Colleges and Universities. It is also a good maxiin-*“in peace prepare for war.” Each South* er n State should always be prepared to defend its r| ghts and interests from foes without and traitors within. Texas Accepts.-- Another peg has been knock fid from under the disunion platform, by the hearty acceptance, on the part of Texas, of the proposition D stdl her claim on New Mexico, to the U. States. Seven eighths of the voters have spoken for accept ing the Ten Millions ! What will Mrs. Grundy sav now? J J A word Os Approval.— We trust that we do no violence to the feelings of the distinguished author of the following note, received a few days since, by giving it a place in our columns. We publish it not on account of the very flattering and to us grateful approval which it contains, of our humble labors, but to give to the cause ot all the strength and influence which the opinion of one of Georgia’s i hies Jurisconsults can and ought to give to any topic which his cultivated and profound intellect may have investigated: Greenville, Ga. 18th Nor. 1850. | Editor Georgia Citizen, Dear Sir, —Herewith, I hand you five Dollars, for which 1 please send me your paper. 1 like the tone and spirit, with ! which it advocates the t uion, the Constitution and supreni- | acy of the Laws, in opposition to Disunion, Nullification and | Mob-Law.

This collection already exceeds j in value forty ,v °tio dollars, and will be still further extend- j cd in t number of subscriptions yet tube re- ■ coved. * Secondly, each s will receive six Fine Engrav ings. the cost of which, if executed for a private publisher, i would at least be sold at four times the price of the subscrip tion. These engravings consist of an engraving (size 20 1-2 1 by 16 3-4 inches) Irom Mr. Leslie’s celebrated picture of Anna Page, Slender and Shallow, a scene from the Merry Y\ ives of \\ iudsor. and a set of five line Engravings (size 7 1-2 by 10 inches) from paintings by the following eminent artists: The Dream oj Arcadia, by Cole ■ Dover Plains, by Du rand; The Image Breaker, by Lutze ; The New Scholar, I by Edmonds, and The Card Players, by Woodville.

JAMES U. AIITOPE. .ALA CSaSALTK&Is. Abolition Merchants. Having been informed that a ivport originating with a newspaper published in this city, to the effect that we are Abolitionists, and supporters of papers advocating abolition doctrines, Ac., has been put in circulation in the Southern States, we deem it proper to state that said re)>ort is utterly false', and without foundation. Neither one of our firm has any leaning towards nr sym pathy iritii abolitionism, or its advocates, and nerer had, but on the contrary, are staunch supporters of the constitu tion and laws of the country, and opposed to any further agitation on the slavery question. We respect fully request all papers which have given cur rency to said report, to do us the justice and favor to retract and contradict the same. PERKINS, \\ ARREX & Cos. late DENNIS, PERKINS A: Cos.

M. The advantages of Oglethorpe as a place of business, are too well known toured any recommendation —its location at the ! terminus of Railroad, in the most fertile cotton region of Georgia, will necessarily give it a rapid growth—it will have all the business, which the sale of 70 or 80,000 bales of cotton will command—its site is unsurpassed in beauty, by any in this State ; it has contained the present year, a popu lation of near 300 persons ; at the taking of the present census it was 286; not a case of fever, or serious sickness of any kind has occurred iu the place ; in regard to health, it will thus far, compare favorably with any place in the State. Purcha sers of lots, can readily obtain materials either ot lumber or brick, for building—there are two steam saw mills, running two saws each in full operation, one within two, and the oth er five miles from the place ; two brickyards have been wor ked this year and have made brick of an excellent quality ; preparations are in progress, for carrying out this business on a more extensive scale next year. The early completion of the Railroad to Oglethorpe next year, is placed beyond doubt. Persons who wish to prepare for business in this town the next season, will do well to at tend, as this will he the last public sale—the remaining, un sold and business lots, and a large number ol’ beautiful lots for residences, will be offered.
