ir wiwcribersjare good Democrats, and

| The Democracy liere seemed inspired
v ith super-natural energy and perseverance.
I.v-oral noble fellows of ourpaity have man
•f.-te'd a willingness to represent us in the
i-rilture. Two of them have b*en can
■_ n , it during the whole year, and a
‘ rth -tood ready to serve if necessary. I
1 n safely say from an acquaintance with all
h ’ gentlemen, thatjthey all aie indifferent
the mere honor of holding a seat in the
V-rislature, and desire only to serve the coun
-v from a sense of duty. In these (lavs of
irruption and degeneracy it is rare to find
.1 many in so small a territory ready to sa
crifice t rery th ing for the good of the coun
?rv and even vieing with each other in their
•jtriotism to perform the drudgery ot slaves.
Vfh'rour glvriou*. got lonl little county had
thoroughly canvassed, a meeting was
,'tlled and largely attended—to nominate
candidates, hut some brother brought for
ward a railroad project, and the meeting
va s turned into a Railroad Convention, and
adjourned to the 20th ult., with a view to
jrjye the candidate* further time to offer
“heir services to the party. The 20th at
length dawned upon u.-, and we all assem
bled (according to the large handbills stuck
upon ah the trees by the road side, and on all
the grocery doors, bridges, Ac., Jcc.,) to
dominate candidates to represent the demo
cratic party of Dougherty county, in the
next legislature. Many of the opposition
. ome, too, no doubt, hoping to hear or see
something to make fun of. But, I tell you
when they saw the boys all on ther mettle,
and heard the shouts and thunder* of ap
that greeted the candidates whenev
er they rose to speak, some of them looked
very pale in the gills. Some of them may, J
however, muster the courage to tell a few
• Know-nothing lies” about the meeting,and
this is an additional reason why I wish to
,ive my friends an impartial account of it.
lhe meeting was organized by calling Col.
Lyon to the Chair. Some of the boys who
did'nt know the ropes, were afraid of this
nrt of a beginning—(the Colonel looked so
stern and honest) and moved to appoint a
committee of five to report business tor the
Convention. Col Slaughter rose and op
posed the motion most vehemently. Col.
McCarthy moved to amend by ap|ointiiig a
committee of seven, which was seconded.
The motion was then being put, when some
brother moved to nominate Col. Harris for
the Senate by acclamation, and obtained a
-woiul. This last motion was being put to
the house, when Col. Tilt arose and said
he wished to be heard before the vote was
taken. The chair called him to order, as
the IV(> and noes hud been called for on the
previous question, (cries of hear him, let
him be heard, from all parts of the house.)
A move was now made, and obtained a sec
ond,that the Col. be heard, (cries of no*! no !
the question! the question!) The house
was called to order by the Chair, and the
vote was taken and the motion lost. The
Col. then rose and said he did not believe
these jicople would refuse to hear him. A
motion was now made to hear the Col. and
being put to vote, was luminously adopted.
The Col. said there were questions of vital
interest that he wished to call the attention
of this covention to, and he thought it noth
ing hut fair and right that the opinions of
the candidates should be known before the
nominations were made. (He was here in
terrupted by Col. Slaughter who said he
rose to a point of order that it was contrary
to democratic usage to call on a man to ex
press hisopinons before he was nominated.) j
He made a short and forcible speech. Did
not come here to discuss the merits of any
measure or question, but to make a nomina
tion. The Democratic party stood on the
Cincinnati platform, and anybody could
understand that. (Tremendous applause
and cries of go it, my Slaughter). Here the
Chair called the speaker to order, and Col.
Tilt resumed his sjieecli saying he did not
intend to be juggled out of his rights in this
way, that he had been slandered and abused j
and intended to reply before he went into a
nomination. After alluding to the slander
in circulation against him, he urged ujain
the meeting the importance to this section
of a general State aid bill for the construc
tion of Railroads, and the absolute necessity
for a Railroad direct from Albany to the
seaboard, and he Would not vote for any
man who was opposed to State aid. (Tre
mendous applause.) Col. Slaughter now
rose and interrupted Col. Tift w ith a speech
of great spirit and considerable unction,
pouring it into him with a vengeance and
bringing down the house with scarcely a
dissenting voice, when he was called to or
der and the motion to nominate Col. Har
ris was put and carried unanimously. There
was not a man in the house but thought he
had honestly earned it. Col. Tift now pro
ceeded to reply to Col. Slaughter and poured
it into the Col. with a vengeance bringing
down the house almost unanimously, and
closed by saying he thought himself fully
equal to his young friend, Col. Ely, who was
oppesing him in the nomination as a Bail
road man, and that was a question of more
importance to this community just now
than anv other. Col. Ely was now called
for, and replied to Col. Tift. Said he was
in favor of Railroads himself : did not think
Col. Tift “par excellence” the best Railroad
man in Georgia; thought it was sufficient
for a man to be a good democrat, when he
came before the people for office ; he was
:, ne and stood on the democratic
forever and ever. (Tremendous applause,)
Did not think Georgia needed more than
one, or two, or three, or four, or five, or six
Railroads beside what she had ; had built
the main trunk road to Florida ; but, be
was willing at nil times to bow to the will of
the people. (*’ries of go it, my Ely !) Col.
Titt now rose and said, he was as good a
democrat as any body, Mr. Elv and Col.
Slaughter not excepted; alluded to the in
sinuation of Col. Ely that he did not know
>0 much about Railroads as he pretended.and
wound up by saying, that, if the conven
tion would deal fairly with him, he would
abide by its decision. (Just here one of the
party said he intended to vote “Democrat
ic,” another said ho was for the Railroad;
thought railroads had done our jiarty more
good than anything else; so good to move
voti rs about, and give employment to quar
relsome democrats.) Col. Tift closed his
speech. AVe all proceeded to ballot. I tell
you w hen I looked at both the candidates I
did’nt know what to do; thought how
game thev were; I was almost crazy; I
wrote a ticket for one and then for the oth
er, and tried to “choose between the two,”
and could’nt—so I put ’em both in ; I was
lost in wonder and admiration at the fear
less and able manner jn which both of the
candidates urged their claims upon the con
vention. 1 think every Democrat in the
State will feel “pearter” when he hears of
the revival down here at Albany.
Southern Rights.
P. S.—Col. Harris was called on and said
he was in favor of limited State aid. The
ballotting was finished after I left, and Col.
Kly was elected, to run the race for the leg
islature. I don't think be could hnve
whipped Col. T. if Col. Slaughter had not
jumped on. I have heard it said, it was
very important for a young dog to whip his
firtt fight, so I reckon it is ali right.

Blondin's last Great Feat at Niagara
Nias aba. Falls, Aug. 18th, 18od.
Db. Andrews:—Previous to niv leaving
Georgia— about the middle of July—the
newspaper accounts of Blondin's extraor
dinary tVts in crossing a tight-rope at
Niagara, were doubted, not only by the
public generally, but by myself, as being too
fabulous to be deserving of credence; and it
was not until I arrived here upon the ground
R nd saw the rope spanning the yawning
chasm and heard a relation of his deeds by
‘‘living, credible witnesses,” that I fully
yielded a belief to them ; and, granting
others who may yet be skeptical the same,
prerogative of distrust, without being an
e >e-witmesß, I shall not complain if my nar
rative fails to impress all of your readers
- th an unwavering conviction of the truth
“t what I relate; for verily, the thing is so
extraordinary, that to realize it—*t least—it
Quires to be seen.
osterday (the 17th) beyond a question,
the most unparalleled feat of daring was
performed here by Mon. Blondin. that has
ever occurred since man has existed on the
earth. The first crossing, however, from the
American to the Canada shore, was but a
repetition of his feat of August 2d. Punc
tually- at the appointed time (4i o'clock, p.
m.) the dauntless hero mounted the rope,
turned and bowed gracefully to the throng
of spectators, seized his balancing pole and
, started off at a rapid pace without stopiping
until he had traversed about a third of the
distance: here he came to a stand and stood
for a while upon one foot; proceeding on
again he reached the centre of the rope, at
which point,for about fifty feet,there are no
gyves; be passed this and tied his balancing
pole to the rope and gyves, and then went
u P° n the under side of the rop>e back to the
centre of the open spiace; here he stood upon
his head, turned somersets backwards and
forwards, held himself in a horizontal posi
tion by one hand, suspended himself by one
leg, balanced himself at right angles and
exhibited the motions of swimming; arose
upon the rope shook it violently, sat upon it
’ sideways, then passed hand over hand upon
the under side of it to where he had before
left his balancing pole ; disengaged this and
piassed rapidly on to the Canada side, where
he was received by the multitude with shouts
of applause that would for the while have
silenced the roar of the Falls, had the
spectators been at Table Rock and Goat
Island.
Thus far, all was pleasure and agreeable
excitement, what remained to be done, filled
the stoutest heart with dread and fearlul apt
prehension. Blondin had advertised to re
turn, carrying a man upon his shoulders, of
145 pounds weight; and knowing that he
would attempt all that he had promised, the
result was anticipated with entire misgiving,
it apqtcaring even after the miracles that he
had performed, as a thing impossible. The
hope that the authorities on the Canada side
would interfere and prevent what seemed
the mad attempt, was shared by all. But
no ! Blondin knew no obstacles : and short
ly appeared the frightful apparition of Blon
din, with a second head peering above his
, own slowly descending the rope. The vast
concourse upon both sides (variously esti
mated at from 25,000 to 30,000) gazed with
breathless suspense. Hundreds covered their
eyes or turned from the scene; all, momen
tarily expected the wail of horror that would
announce the fall and inevitable doom of the
victims. The only ones who appeared stoi
cml and unconcerned was Blondin and his
companion. Eight times the latter dis
mounted to afford Blondin a momentary
rest, which interval he improved only in dis
playing some freaks of daring, such as stand
ing up>on one foot and shaking the rope. At
length. Monsieur stepped iipion terra firma
on the American side; when, as an earth
quake the air was rent with thunders of ap- !
plause: of the fair sex, numbers wept for
joy : while the lords of creation seemed per
fectly frantic with excitement. The two ,
heroes were instantly seized and borne upon |
men’s shoulders to their carriage.
Next week, on the 24th, Blondin walks
again. He crosses to the Canada side chained
from head to foot in the character of a Greek
Slave. Is to return in the character of a
French Cook, bringing a cook stove and j
utensils to the centre of the rop>e, where he
is to cook Omelets and make Coffee, and j
lower them to the passengers upon the Maid ,
of the Mist (in the river underneath.) “He
cordially invites any rival rope-walker into
his kitchen to dine with him, provided he
will pass him on the rop>e and go out at the
back door.” Yours,
V. C. TAYLOR.

The Public Money and the Echo Negroes.
Dr. Andrews :—Before the President can
enter upon the duties of his office he is re- j
quired by the Constitution of the United
States to take the following oath: “I do
solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faith- 1
fully execute the office of President of the
United States, and will, to the best of my
ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Con
stitution of the United States.” Mr. Buch
anan took that oath. The Constitution in
prescribing and detailing the duties of the
President, among other things, in the 2nd
Article, Section 3d, says, “He shall, from
time to time, give Congress information of the
state of the Union, and recommend to their
i consideration such measures as he shall judge j
necessary and expedient.” The President
in his Annual Message informed Congress of
the Echo case, and his agreement witlf the
ageDt of the Colonization Society; and then
asked Congress by an. appropiation of $45-
000 to ratify the contract he had made
with said agent. Congress under a general
appropriation endorsed the doings of the
President, and the money was, or is, to be
paid to the agent of the Colonization Soci
ety.
Anti-Berrien asks, “What records does
Berrien produce to support this unfounded
charge against Mr. Buchanan ?” I answer, I
the record based upon the in formation that
the President shall from time to lime i give
Congress, and that is his Annual Message,
information solemnly and officially given to
Congress in accordance with the oath Presi
dent Buchanan took. “Unfounded?” My au
thority is founded on the statement of Pres.
Buchanan, and not on the unofficial state
ment of his Secretary, Mr. Cobb. My au
thority is founded on the report the Presi
dent is compelled to make to Congress from
time to time; that is, to each and every Con
gress assembled. My authority, therefore,
is truly the highest and only official authori
ty. My authority is the President of the
United States. Anti-Berrien's authority is
Secretary Cobb, an officer officially lower
than President Buchanan. My authoiity is
the highest official authority. Anti-Berrien’s
authority is not official, and not even the j
higher authority.
For Anti-Berrien's information, I say
each Annual Message of the President is the
highest official authority, for the reason the
report, or information given to Congress is I
under oath, and unlike Mr. Cobb’s letter.
That report is made in accordance with the
requirements of the Constitution of the
United States. Anti-Berrien, and his friend
Col Hunter, has raised a question of false
hood between the President and his Sec re- j
tary, Mr. Cobb. Mr. Buchanan says he made
the agreement with the agent of the Coloni
zation Society, “to receive these Africans in
Liberia from tbe agent of the United States,
and furnish them during the period of one
year thereafter, with comfortable sheltir,
, clothing, provisions, and medical attendance
CACSmC THE CHILDREN TO RECEIVE SCHOOL
ING; and all, whether children or adults, to
be instructed in the arts of civilized life, suit
able to their condition, for the sum of $45-
000.” Does not the schooling the negro chil
dren proceed from the agreement or contract
made between the agent of the Colonization
.Society and Mr. Buclianan? Is not the
* schooling of tlie negro children, a legitimate
effect of tliat agreement ? Could it have ex
isted without that contract? Cannot Mr.
Buchanan compel the agent of the Coloniza
* tion Society to educate the negro children j
whether or no ? Could that agent evade the
legal obligation imposed by the terms of that
agreement, to school the negro children-
Suppose there was an organized society lo
cated in the State of Ohio, for the purpose op
receiving all negroes from those who m : ght
see proper to tree and send them there; and
that Col. Hunter was the constituted agent
of said Society, and I were to agree with
him as agent, to give him $2,000 to receive
in the State of Ohio a negro woman and her
five children, to furnish them during the pe
riod of one year thereafter with comfortable
shelter, clothing, provisions, and medical at
tendance, CAUSING THE CHILDREN TO
RECEIVE SCHOOLING. If he or the So
j ciety failed to educate those negro children
could I not, by law, sue and compell him by
law, to school them? or make Lim as agent,
pay damages for abrogating one of the terms
of the agreement ? Causing the children to
| receive schooling is a singular, yet forcible ex
pression ; it includes the idea of compulsion.
It implies motive and controlling power. It
carries with it the idea of a reservation of
right and power on the part of the Presi
dent, or Government, to force or compel the
Society to school the negro children. If the
schooling the negro childreu was outside of
the agreement, why did the President Dot
say the agent of said Society had voluntarily
and without pay, agreed to school the chil
dren ? I rely on Mr. Buchanan, because he
is the higher authority, and because his re- 1
port was made to Congiess, and not to a
private gentlemau, for political effect. Be
sides, I.do not know that Mr. Buchanan ev
er voted for the Wilmot Proviso; Ido know ‘
that Mr. Cobb did. I assert, and re-assert,
the charge that the public money has been
used to school negro children, and that Mr.
Buchanan did contract to pay the public
money for the same, and it was done, if Mr.
Buchanan is to be believed.
I am not going to Mr. Cobb lor an expla
nation of Mr. Buchanan’s official acts and do
ings. They need Dot be explained, they
speak for themselves. I am satisfied to be
lieve Mr. Buchanan, and have no disposition
to impeach, as Col. Hunter has done with
the Georgian, who voted for the Wilmot
Proviso. I have no hatred for the President
of my country. Some things Mr. Buchanan
has done, I approve. But when it comes to
taking the public money to educate negroes,
I demur, protest, and will denounce the ac*
as a grievous wrong done the South.
I would say to those who are desirous of
official information, that Congress pays a
large amount annually for printing the acts
and doings of the Government; therefore,
the Globe can be seen. The President’s
Message can be seen. By examining these
and others printed, you can know all without
writing to Secretary Cobb, at Washington.
I never miss my mark ; my aim is unerring,
my arrows are always sped from the records
ot the country, (and I don’t write to, or go
to Washington either,) therefore my arrows
rankle. lam the mmion of no leader, but
an American citizen, proud in the exercise
of my right of independence to think and
act as becomes a freeman. I defy alike the
malevolent party-slave and demagogue. I
like the man in whose heart there lives and
moves the soul of a proud, independent, and
fearless freeman. Berrien.
<lnr CorreNpoiidence.
Petebsbprgh, Va., August 17th, 1859.
Mr. Citizen :
It is worse than amazing—it is woful, that
the South is not unanimous in demanding that
no people shall come into the Union as a State
from the territorial condition, with a constitu
tion repudiating slaver} - . It is passing strange
that any man, woman, or child, in the South,
should for a moment think that the South
should not resist such an outrage. I know
that the idea has loDg and very generally pre
vailed, that where a people in that condition
form their constitution for admission, they are
perfectly free to foim it just as they please in
all respects. But is it really true that tho idea
is right ? It is even admitted by those who
hold fast to that idea still, that such a people
aie subject to the constitution of the United
States. Well, how can it be that they are so
subject , aDd yet perfectly free ? Such was the
inconsistent languago ot the Kansas-Nebraska
act. Subject, and yet free—perfectly free !
And c*n it be ? Indeed they are so sul ject.
What then does it mean, to be subject to the
constitution of the United States ? It cannot
mean less than that such ’a people in forming
their constitution to become a State, shall not
contravene that federal constitution to which
they are subject. It is readily admitted that if
such a constitution should contain a clause in
fringing freedom of religion, or of the Press, it
t could violate the lederal constitution, so that
the people professing it, should not be admit
ted. If such constitution should contain a
clause subjecting the public domain within its
limits to taxation by the State authority, it
would readily and without dispute,be said that
it so violates the federal authority, that it
ought not to be allowed by the federal legisla-
ture. And yet, it is not readily seen and as
serted and sustained that a constitution inter
ferring w ith and preparing to destroy the own
ership of slave property, does so violate the
federal constitution that such a people should
not be admitted as a State! None are so blind
as they who will not see. Why, let me ask
my native South, did her Representatives in
Congress insist on repealing the “Missouri Re
striction ?” It surely was because it prohibit
ed slavery in the territory, west of the Mis
sissippi [excepting Missouri] lying North, of :5G
deg. 80 min. Does the South desire, or is it will
ing Uqreinstate that restriction ? No ! says the
whole South. Will any man tell me then bow
the South can %il to maintain to the utmost,
the right to refuse admission of a State which
by its constitution excludes slavery ? That is
all the restriction of 1821 which we got rid of in
1854. Then for Congress, now, without the
South’s resistance in Congress, to admit a State
excluding slavery, would duly and precisely be
to re-tnact the Missouri restriction, as to such
state coming into the Union. It would be to
undo now, what the South encountered such a
struggle to do in 1854. It would be to do
again what was done in 1821, as to the North
side of that legal line. It would be worse
than re-imposing that restriction. It duly ex
cluded slavery—inhibited “involuntary servi
tude” —as to the North side of that line. To
! reject my doctrine that it is the right and duty
of the federal legislature to refuse admission of
a territorial people as a State, whose proposed
constitution expels slavery, would be to let in
and allow the restriction as to the South-side,
as well as the North of that line—even as to
the States to be carved out of Texas, South.—
If the light of the federal constitution is hid, it
is hid only from them whom it would protect.

NORTHERN MADE IRON AXLE WAGONS for 2, 4 or
6 horses, either to haul in their crops, or to move West the
coming Fall, would do well to give their orders for them
at once, as they ate made to special order, and will take
f otn 30 to 60 days to get them out. Those who have used
these Wagons say they arc fa- superior to any shipped to
this State, and many Planters are cidt-ring them In differ
ent parts of the State, and having them shipped direct from
the factory to their place. Address

A query. Why will you suffer ? Dys
| pepsin is it brief but comprehensive term for
! the numerous diseases which affect the stom
ach, liver, and in fact the whole human
! system. Until Dr. Green discovered the
I Oxygenated Bitters medical science was at
| fault, and had exhausted itself in fruitless
! efforts to cure this disease that is always
painful, and frequently a fatal affliction.
This unique and peculiar compound will
as certainly cure the disease as the disease
exists, llad it not this power such testimo
ny as follows would not be given in its fa
vor :
Valuable testimony in favor of the Orygena
ted Bitters.
Having made use of tbe Oxygenated Bit
i tors, prepared by Dr. Geo. B. Green, of
, Windsor, Vt., and from knowledge obtain
j cd of their efficacy in other cases, we cheer
j fully recommend them the public, believing
i they will fully sustain the recommendation
jof the proprietor. We hope that his valua
| ble remedy may be accessible to all the afflic
-1 ted.

Its success in severe cases of Dyspepsia,
Asthma, General Debility of the System,
places it among the most wonderful discov
eries in medical science, and has given it a
reputation far beyond any remedy known for
these complaints, in all their various forms.

Strumous or Scrofulous affections are the
1 curse, the blight, the potatoe rot of man
kind. They are vile and filthy as well as
; fatal. They arise from contamination and
; impurity of the blood, and are to be seen all
j around us every day. One quarter of all we
I meet are tainted with them, and one quar
ter of these die with them: die foolishly
j too, because they are curable. Ayer's Sar-
I saparilla cleanses out the scrofulous corrup
, tion from the blood, renders it pure and
healthy, and effectually expurges the foul
contamination from the system. No longer
groan ander your scrofulous disorders, since
the irresistible Ayer has provided his mas
terly combination of curative virtues that
he calls Sarsaparilla. — Democrat, Water-

any other hotel in the city ; and the table is furnished with the
best the country affords; the rooms are comfortably ventilated,
and supplied with necessary furniture, and the servants are
well trained and may be summoned at any hour. He has
spared no pains or expense to meet every want, and supply
