For General C ass and Judge Douglas led

After the passage of the Kansas bill, Gen.

S uator who voted for the Kansas bill voted
for the principle of Squatter Sovereignty ;

the T>lrgraph treat those who, in 1855, and
ls.it, ,id, and tried to show, the jieopic of
Georgia that squatter sovereignty was j n the
Kan>a bill; Cincinnati platform, and Mr.
Buchanan’s letter of acceptance ? Turn
back to the tiles of the Telegraph, and In
1*55, 1856 and 1857, you will fiud ileriaion,
contumely, and the charge of treason, Muped
and piled up on those who honestly tritxl to
enlighten the people of Georgia itjkui what
thev considered their best interest and their
constitutional rights in the territories. The
Telegraph for a purpose, seemingly repudi
ates Judge Douglas and “popular sovereign
ty,’ and supports Gov. Brown for Governor,
who stands upon a platform, (the Cincinnati
platform) in which is to be found Judge
Douglas’ popular or squatter sovereignty
doctrine in its fullest and broadest sense, for
it asserts, “that the people of a territory like
those of a State, huve the right to regulate
their domestic institutions in their own
way.” In that sentence in the Cincinnati
platform is to be found Gen. Ca>s and Judge
Douglas’ doctrine of self-government, jtopu
lar sovereignty, squatter sovereignty, or
territorial sovereignty.”
Our comment was on this remark and sen
tence in the Telegraph of Sept. G; “Me take
with it mainly on the extent to which it
pishes the popular sovereignty threap; an
extent practically fatal to the sovereignty it
self.” W?ask every candid reader if there
i- not in the above sentence, a plain confes
sion of support to J udge Douglas’ popular
■ r squatter sovereignty principle in the ter
ritories ? Nay, more, it is a clear commit
t 1 to the doctrine of sovereignty in the peo
ple of the territory. IIow? Why the Tele
graph says that the “extent” to which Judge
Douglas pushes his theory will be “practi
cally fatal to the sovereignty itself .” Sover
eignty? where? In the States? No, but
sovereignty in the territories; for the Tele
graph is speaking of the territories, as ter
ritories, and consequently sovereignty as
Used by the Telegraph, can only be made to
apply to the territories. “We take issue with
if mainly ,” (that is principally) “on the EX
TENT to irhich it pushes the popular sovereign
ty theory.” “We take issue with if ’ — with
what do you take issue? “On” Judge Doug
las’ doctrine of -popular or squatter sover
eignty in the territories? No. “ Mainly
on the extent to which it pushes the popu-
lar sovereignty theory.”
It is clearly to be seen that the Telegraph
nude no is.-uo with Judge Douglas’ doctrine
of popular or squatter sovereignty, on prin
ciple. The only issue made in the sentence,
a- quoted, and commented on by us was, as
to the “extent,” or length. Judge Dougin?
applied his doctrine, and not as to the prin
ei P k -
The Telegraph del's not complain of the
principle, but only of the “ extent ” of the i
application of the principle to the territories.
M liv did not the Telegraph in 1855, 185<
and 1857, write about squatters going to
Kansas territory- as it does now? We doubt
il it once, in the years named,ever raised its j
i*n against squatters and squatter sovereign
ty • It ridiculed the idea of squatter sover
eignty being in the Kansas bill. Now it is
mum on that. Judge Iverson has told the ,
Democrats it was in the Kansas bill, and he
advocated it, and was sorry for it, and Mr.
Ttxtmbs in liis Lexington speech admitted it
was in the Kansas bill. Is our contempo
rary op|oeed to, or in favor of the doctrine
“f “popular sovereignty” or territorial sov
ereignty in the territories ? Will our con
tent jsirary support Judge Douglas, if nomi
nated at the Charleston Convention for the
Presidency in 1860? Is our contemporary
opposed to Congress passing laws to protect
-laverv in the territories? XVe wish to un
der-tand our contemporary, for there can l>e
no middle grounds between the doctrine of
popular or squatter sovereignty, and the
doctrine that it is the constitutional duty of
Congress to pass laws to protect slavery in
the territories. All must take either one or
the other position. We leave the people to
judge if we have read, understood or “was
willing to mi.-represent” the Telegraph.
The Democracy in Crawferd.
A friend from Crawford county informs
us that the “harmonious’’ and “unterrified”
held a meeting iu that county on Friday
last, for the purpose of nominating candi
dates for the Legislature : which was one of
the most amusing anil ridiculous affairs that
ever occurred, even among the harmonious
Democracy.
It is known to many, that the party is split
up in that county upon various issues, more
than ordinarily. One faction, led by Judge
G. P. Culverhousc, are in favor of repealing
the laws against the slave trade, and is op
posed to Douglas, &c., while the other, led by
Georgeß. Hunter, w ho is a regular “swallow
all ‘ Democrat—will vote for Douglas, and
Opposes the repeal of the African slave trade
h>Wi. &c„ Ac.
The con sequence was, when they met in
the Court-house, there was a regular blow
r d. They quarrelled all day, as none but
the -harmonious” Democracy can quarrel,
und finally broke up in a row, without mak
mg any nomination. Our informant de
scribes it as the most amu-ingand ridiculous
seene he ever saw in his life. Many gentle
men of the Opposition were present, and
**ughed heartily at the contemptible aquab
k** that was going on before them. Such is
a characteristic of }>arty that boasts of cou
,r ’lkog the destines of a nation.

Abolition Designs.
That tlie abolitionists of the North have
been eagerly looking for insurrections
■ amongst our contented slaves, no ona would
douot who watched the tono ot their effu
sions, and the great object of their agita
tions. But they did not declare openly then
wi.-hes or tbeir policy. Mr. Gerriti Smith,
a man of wealth and education in New
York, ami who gave more money to make
Kan is a free State, than every State In the
>uih to secure to her citizena-their right*
iii thi- territory, has lately come out in a
long letter, condemning the inefficiency ot
, hi- Northern abolition a--ocnues. andopt-n
----!y declares that hia chief reliance for carry
ing out his projects of abolition in the South
is in the insurrection of our slaves. He
goes into a detail to show how admirably it
will operate to accomplish hia purposes. We
do not publish these details, because we
doubt whether it would be either proper or
legal for us to do so. \\ e might lav our
aelves open to an indictment on the charge
of incendiarism.— Charleston Mercury.
\V edo not publish the above from our
respected contenijtorary, ftr the purpose o(
furthering his views of creating a prejudice
against the Union: but to give our citizens
an idea of the various modes in operation
among our enemies, to destroy our domestic
|eace and quiet as a people. And that it
may also be remarked, that the prime tnovt-rs
and agitators of the exciting subject of
slavery, North and South, are either Demo
crat-, or those wb< c affinities reach that
way. We have wry liule to (ear from
Gerritt Smith, or Wm. 11. Seward, as long
as we know what they intend, and the means
by which they de-ign to accomplish it. But
when such men as Stephen A. Douglas,
hacked by a party at the South, and partic
ularly- iu Georgia, who are perseveringty
desirous of hiding his real designs, in the
• hope of elevating him to the Presidency,
and who have betrayed the South, and to
cover the enormity of their treachery, still
persi-t in denying the doctrines imputed to
them, and which ha- de-trnv**d our equality
in the territori***, —we say, when such men,
and such a party assaii us, with plau-ible
tongues and luir promises—paltering to us
I in a double sense, there is danger indeed
For we cannot sec the snare until it is fas
tened upon us. There is not a doubt in our
minds, that Mr. Dougin- is the most danger
ous man to the South, that lives this day in
• the Union. Hois ns deadly u foe to slavery
j as the rankest abolitionist, itud his doctrines
, of squatter sovereignty, territorial legisla
tion, and alien suffrage, will prove far more
deadly in their effects upon the progress of
i the Snth, and her equality and rights in
the Union, than all the measures yet devised
by the fanatical abolitionists. Besides, he is
backed by a party at the South, who are
either traitors to us from inherent villainy,
or they have been most egregiously deceived
by this arch demagogue, who like the veiled
prophet of Kora-sun, has kept his secrets
hidden from them by a silver veil of promi
i ses, which, when he has them completely in
his power, he will withdraw, and show them
his hideous deformity, and tell them, as did
the prophet his followers,
“ Ye would be dupes and villains and ye arc!”
Col. Speer Questioned.
We understand that the following qnes
tions were propounded to Mr. Speer at Wa
verly Hall, Harris county, on the occasion
of his recent speech at that place,—and
with the result, so far as the answers were
i concerned, as are marked down. They do
not indicate an open and fair-minded gen
, tlemau, such as has been conceded to Mr.
J Speer. And vve do not question that the
jieople are sufficiently intelligent to perceive
that any man seeking their suffrages who re
fuses to respond fairly, openly, and frankly,
to any legitimate questions propounded by
them, means to deceive some portion of his
j constituency, at least, —or hopes to gain the
votes of others by leaving his position open
to conjecture, or such representation of par
tizans, as may suit dillerent localities. This
is inconsistent with an honorabie canvass,
and we are at a loss to know how it can be
reconciled with integrity, honesty orpatrio
j tism.

Browns Bank Letter-
The “Intelligencer” upon us to give
this infamous Letter entire in our issue of
to-day. It says it does not want it in brok
en doses. We suppose not; but as we are
t the physician in this instance, we intend to
exercise our prerogative, and treat the case
in our own way, regardless of the patient’s .
wishes. Besides, we have seen no denial J
by Gov. Brown, or by tlie “Intelligencer”
for Him, of *he existence of such a Letter as
we have alluded to, aud we do not feel called
upon to produce our proof until such denial
is made. If the “luteliigeucer”is really anx
ious to see the Letter in print, let him call
1 upon Gov. Brown for a copy. He cau
1 furnish it, if he will. —Atlanta American.
This is the gravest charge that was ever
brought agaiust a Governor of Georgia;
and if true, as we have no doubt it is, ought
to cons : gn Gov. Brown to the lowest grade
of infamy. We do not hesitate to say. if
such a charge was brought against a candi
date whose claims we advocated, and it was
proven to l>o true, we should instantly aban
don him to his fate. And we have no doubt
that thousands of honorable men who voted
for Gov. Brown before, will silently with
draw from his support on this very charge—
if not for his universally admitted inca
pacity.—Ed. Citizen.
For ilie Georgia Citizen.
To Col. A. M. Speer.
The people of the 3id District have some
curiosity s well as interest, to know your
positr i, as given in the presence of Mr.
Ciisby, the editor of the Georgia Telegraph,
and written down by Col. George R. Hun
ter, of Knoxville, Crawford county. ’Tis
said Col. Hunter is satisfied with your posi
tion upon both Federal and State policy.—
How is this? ’Tis said Judge Culverhouse,
too, is sat.fied with your positions. There is
a radical difference between Judge Culvtr
bouse and Col. Hunter upon important po
litical principles and policy. The written
statement; the statement given Col Hun
ter. Let it come. Anxiety.

The Wilkes Repcbucak.— Mr. William
Henry Wilson, formerly of AhbeTille, S. C.,

Democracy Everywhere the
Same.
The same disregard lor the truth, and the
unscrupulous use of any and all means, how
ever vile, to attain and hold power, marks
the career of the Democratic leader- through
out the length and breadth of the Union.—
The most -bameleas prostitution of the Gov
ernment patronage i -o common, that the
Opposition are sick and disgusted with ex
posing it. The utter want of principle,
jiolitioftlly and morally, is an univer-al char
acteristic. Why the people do submit to
such conduct in their public men, is a mys
tery to us. Their doctrine- are the most
dangcrou- that can 1m? uttered, and their
acts the most profligate and abandoned that
can be conceived of.
We were led to these remarks by reading
the progress of the canvass in that far off
country, California, as given bv n Cor- ‘
respondent ot the Mobile ‘Daiiv Advertiser,’
fr.mi that State, from which we make the
following extracts. They show that the same
disregard for truth or principle, that charac
terizes the leaders of the Democracy in
Georgia, exists also in California —“they
would barter ten principles for one rote.”
“Mm nv disinterested persons predict the
-ucce-s of the anti-Lecompton wing of the
Democracy, and 1 have cause to kuow, some
leading men of that party feci their confl- ;
deuce greatly increased since fixing the
charges of corruption and attempted bribery ‘
of the Supreme Court so firmly on Latham
the Lecomptnm nominee for Governor.—
With the extent of Government putronugu
i ni command of the administaation jiarty.ar.J
the unscrupulous manner in which it is used, ‘
coupled with the apparently reckless de
termination to win at all hazards I -till feel
■ onfldeiit ot the-iieress of the administra
tion. So potent are the behests of pu-ty
convention, and especially of that party,
that the mass will support a nominee, re
gardle sos fitness, honesty and truthfulness.
As evidence of this as-ertion, all the evi
dence (though apjta,-rutty conclusive) udiiuc
ed to sustain the charge of bribery against j
Mr. Latham, seem to exert little more i
weight among his partisans than would the
blank sheets on which thev are printed.
Wh en one of their public speakers, some- 1
what prominent, declares (us he did here, to
a private circle. recently,) that they were
• ‘determiner/ to win. regardless of prinCi- j
filesand that he “would barter ten prin
ciples for one vote,” I must suppose moral
integrity to be at a low figure. Public plun
der is the only motive of action with such
men, and patriotism, though constantly
, sounding on the lij, is a myth to the heart,
audit- purity and saeredness is sullied and
disgraced by the empty professions of such
jianderers to public place and power 1 .”
Mr. Jenkins for Akin.
We take the following announcement from
the Augusta Chronicle of yesterday. We
have had no doubt of the position of such
me n as Mr. Jenkins in such a contest, but we
fee! gratified to be ab’e to announce by au
thority that his sympathies are all in favor
of Col. Akin. He knows both the candi
j dates and their past history, and we had no
thought he could hesitate in making his se
lection between them:
The Chronicle says:
I “As we are frequently asked what is the
I position of our distinguished fellow-citizen, i
Mr. Jenkins, as between Gov. Brown and
Col. Akin, we take great pleasure in stating,
for the information of all. and we state it on
reliable authority , that Mr. Jenkins, though
out of public life, and desirous to remain so,
is in favor of the election of Warren Akin
to the of ice of Governor of Georgia , and will
’ vote for him.”
That 30,000 Majority.
The Southerncs a Democratic paper pub
! li-hed in Home, in its issue of September Ist
takes occasion to say, under the head of
“Prospects of the Democracy
“The present incumbent v/ill unquestion
ably be reelected Governor. By. what
majority it is impossible to guess with any
precision. It he gels strictly a party vote,
it will give him some lO.Oilo majority. He
will get some votes from the Opposition,
which will be counterbalanced by losses
from the Democracy. Ten thousand will in
our judgment, not be far from the ligures he
will receive over his opponent.” .
Alas ! then, for Gov. Brown, says the
: Augusta Chronicle. That braggart boast
can never be fulfiilled, and we fear his Ex
| cellency is doomed forever to be dissatisfied.
, In his stronghold, his friends now only
claim for him 10,000 majority, and we much
fear that even they will be dissatisfied.
The 30,000,000 Bill.
Mr. Broderick, on© of the Senators
from California, is now stumping
that State, and making speeches
strongly denunciatory of his eol
league in the Senate, l>r. (twin. In
:t recent harangue, directed against
i Gwin, he thus “lets the eat out of the
bag” in regard to the object of the
thirty million bill which was intro
duced at the last session of Congress,
as we learn from the Richmond
“Whig.”
* “I also accuse him (Gwin) of hav
ing supported the Thirty Million Se
cret Fund Bill, when he knew it was
the intention to use that money as a
corruption fund, in order to carry
THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION;
eiteer to elect ‘Jimmy Buchannan’ or
Mr. Slidell of Louisiana, with whom
he co-operated in the United States
Senate.”
Hardeman at Hamilton.
“We learn verbally, says the Columbus
Enquirer, that Mr. Hardeman, the Opposi
tion candidate lor Congress in the Third
District, addressed a large crowd at Hamil
ton on Tuesday. His speech was a very ef
fective and able one, and inspired his
supporters with much enthusiasm and confi
dence. Dr. C. Gibbs, a prominent
Democrat of Harris, repudiated Brown and
Speer, and declared himself for Akin and
Hardeman. There are other cheering indi
cations in Harris, betokening a large Oppo
sition majority in the county and the
triumphant election of Mr. Hardeman.
Hon. D. P. Hill followed 31 r. Hardeman
in a patriotic and spirited speech.
The Second District.
The Columbus Enquirer , speaking of the
’ boasting and bragging of the Democratic
press, about the gains, Ac., in the Second
District, and of Mr. Crawford's chances of
election, ays: “Our advices from the coun
ties of this Congressional District are highly
cheering for Douglas and the Opposition
from nearly every quarter. Our young
standard-bearer is acquitting himself worth
ily and well. He will unquestionably run
ahead of his party strengtii in the counties
below Chattahoochee, and we believe that
all over the District the Opposition are not
only united but enthusiastic in his support.”
An Afflicted Family.
We arc grieved to learn that Hon. Henry
G. Lamar and Family, have sustained an
other sore atllietion in the death of Anher
son Lamak, Eq., of Baker county, a young
gentleman of worth and promise, whose
corpse has just been brought up to Macon
I for interment. This is the fourth grown
child deceased within the space of two years!
Our whole community deeply sympathize
with the surviving family, under these re
peated and heavy strokes of an afflictive

The Colnmbus
Capt. Hardeman.
Mr, Editor: —
Capt. Hardeman according to the
Columbus “Time-t’ 1 must lie a giant
in intellect. Why, he writes as if
Hardeman was the cause of all the
ills that did betide the disunionists of
1850. The “Times” writes as if
Hardeman really had the power, in
fluence and ability to guide, as well
as have stayed, the disappointments
of the Hhett meeting m 1850. I
have no dispos tion to taunt any one
with past disappointments. The
“Times” thinks Cos! Speer meet* the
issues of the canvass boldly. How
does le meet the issues ? He de
nounces Douglas and defends the
Kansas hill—which bill that Judge
Iverson said lost the South Kansas.
Col. Speer denounce! why, bless
your soul he has been riding that
Squatter Sovereign Kansas Bill ever
since 1854. He denies Squatter Sov
ereignty i* in the knn-a- b 11, and yet
right m Griffin, in the 3d District,
Judge Iverson declared in his speech
th.i-con the 14th July, 1859, that the
demon s ol’ Squatter Sovereignty in
the Kansas bill lost Kansas to the
South. Which is right? Who meets
the issues boldly, Judge Iverson or
Col. Speer ? Furthermore, Judge
Iverson said lie once advocated the
heresy of Squatter Sovereignty.—
When and wheie did Judge Iverson
defend Squat or S. vereigifty ? In
what measure pas-ed by Congress did
Judge Iverson advocate the doc
trine ol Squatter Sovereignty ? Into
what m. a sure was the principle of
Squatter Sovereignty incorporated ?
N\ hat does Judge Iverson call the*
Kansas Rill ? Hear him ! read it ! !
write ii?!! A cursed and v'retdud
thin a of uncertainties atul lyunedniiaj
general dies. No tiffin can, no man nev
er will, he able to use stronger l m
guage to express hisdi approval,con
demnation and detestation of a meas
ure than Judge Iverson did of the
Kansas bill, iu his speech at Griffin.—
Speer is defending this same infam
ous swindle put upon the South and
country by the democratic leaders.—
Col. Speer and all the democratic
leaders denied the principle of Squat
ter Sovereignty to be iu the Kansas
hill. Did not the “Times” do the
same thing in 1855, ’SO and ’s7_? The
“Times” -and Col. Speer is deuounc
ing Squatter Sovereignty and sup
porting and defending the very lull
in wli.eh Judge Iverson says it is, to
wit : The Kansas bill. Judge Iverson
says distinct y and without prevari
cation Squatter Sovereignty iu the
Kansas bid, lost Kansas to tlie South.
This double dealing of the “Times”
and Col. Speer is no new thing. It
is the game the leaders of the demo- !
crane party love to pay. They havede- i
eeived the people so long with tine
promises that they think it is quite
natural and ea-y to do the same
thing again. Capt. Hardeman, aitho’
a State and Southern rights man in
the union, lie does not belong to Col.
Speer and the “Times” fire-eating
party.
I feel sorry for the lamentations
of the “Times” over Capt. Harde
man’s desertion of the Rheet disun
ion party in 1850. The “Times”
must not take thinks so hard. It the
“Times” will turn its attention to
the democratic leaders that betrayed
the rights of the S .nth in the Terri
tories by the passage of the Han-as
bill, it will find jus; and patriotic em
ployment for all of its time. Let the
“Times” expose the fraud and cheat
oft lie Kansas swindle,"and the mis
chievous legislation and wasteful ex
penditure of the public money by the
democratic* leaders and the Govern
ment at Washington. Then perhaps,
the “Times” may do the country
some service.
The “Times” in appealing to the
democrats of the 3d, says : “There is
no such word as tail.” Well, it will
fail this time. The gallant and bril
liant Hardeman is making a mighty
inroad into the party of the demo
cratic leaders. The people look to
Hardeman ; every fibre of their na
ture is with and for him. Their
very hearts beat for his success. Col.
Speer, in this canvass will come out
of it as Marshal McDonald did out of
the battle of Wagram, with this dis
ferenee, without victory and honor.
One of the Old Guard.
For tho Georgia Citizen.
Governor Brown's Organ and Douglas,
Mr. Editor :—The notice which
the Atlanta JUteUijencer makes of
Judge Douglas’ article in Harper's
Jfapazine, on or in defense of “popu
lar” or squatter sovereignty, is mild,
very mild, and concilatory. “V,”
says, “ whi ther we agree or not with
all the conclusions of[the Senator; that
this manifesto is one of the most
oowerful that ever has been promul
gated, on the question to which it
refers; that it is written with great
clearness and with a full knowledge
of all the legislation of the United
.States on the subject.” From your
language, you seem to agree with
Judge Douglas in a majority of his
j conclusions. Which one of Judge
Douglas’ conclusions meet your ap
proval, Mr. V? This is a trying
1 time, I know, with the Douglas men
in Georgia. Do you agree with him,
’ that there is Federal and local au
thority ? If so, say yea. Do you
i agree with him, that the Colonies
j were a distinct political community?
i Do you agree with him that the ter
! ritories of the United States are dis
tinct political communities, and as
such have the right, like sovereign
States to form their own domestic
institutions, and manage their own
internal affairs in their own way?
Do you believe with Judge Douglas,
that the territories are not the mere
creatures of Congress, and that Con
gress can clothe the creature with
the exercise of powers it does not
possess itself? Do you believe that
the inferior courts Congress has the
power to constitute, the creatures of
Congress? Do you believe with
Douglas that Congress confers
powers upon the Judiciary of the
country? Do you agree with Doug
las that Congress can delegate the
exercise of a power to tlie Territo
rial Legislature it does not possess
itself? Do you, with Judge Douglas,
believe that while Congress cannot
establish, abolish, or exclude Slavery
from the Territories, the Territorial
Legislature may do either, or either
j one of the three things at its will
and pleasure? Do you believe,with
Douglas, that the Kansas Bill dele
gates the exorcise of the power to
the Territorial Legislature to legis
late on the subject of Slavery in the
Territories? Do you believe, with
Judge Douglas, that a territory like
a State may so exercise the taxing
right, under the power to regulate, as
to exclude Slavery from the commou
Territory of the United States ? Do
, you agree, with Judge Douglas, that
tne TTaTi®fi® ThU ri like the rr>vern
cOk of fjjp >7orth-west Territory,

to apply to territory since abq
bv the Government under the Cm.
stitution of the United States ? Do
you believe, as Douglas states, that
the principle of non-intervention,
“popular” or squatter sovereignly,
is in the Kansas Bill, and Cincinnati
platform, that was, and is in General
Cass’Nicholson letter ? Judge Doug
ins, from 1854 to 1859, contends it is
in both the Kansas Bill and the Cin
cinnati platform.
1 have, L think, in the form of
questions to you, stated every pro
position as laid down by Judge Doug
ins, and every conclusion of his in
his recent treaties on popular sover
eignty in the territories. Once more
allow me to ask you which, or how
many ot his propositions and conclu
sions meets your approbation, and
secures your approval ? As it is un
derstood and conceded that the At
lanta Intelligencer is the organ of
Governor Brown, the people are in
terested to know which, and how
many of Judge Douglas’ propositions
and conclusions meets Governor
Brown’s approbation and approval ?
For you see Judge Douglas says, the
conclusions he arrives at, grows out
of the doctrines and principles of the
Kansas Bill,and Cincinnati platform;
and tlie Kansas Bill and Cincinnati
platform contains the very doctrines
of Gen. Cass’Nicholson letter. What
beat Gen. Cass for the Presidency in
1848, in Georgia ? Answer, bis doc- 1
trine of popular sovereignty in the
territories; a doctrine mostly known
in Georgia, by the .name of Squatter 1
Sovereignty. Well if it beat Gen.
<lhss for the Presidency in Georgia
in I><4B, ought it not to beat Governor
Brown for Governor in Georgia in
1859 ? For the Cincinnati platform,
is the Kansas Bill and the Kansas !
Bill is the Cincinnati platform, and
both contain the doctrine of General
Cass, to wit: Squatter Sovereignty.
Governor Brown is a Kansas Bill
man, he defends the Kansas Bill and
stands upon the Cincinnati platform,
and rejects the decision of the Su
preme Court of the United States in
the Dred Scott case. For the leaders
that nominated Governor Brown as
their candidate for Governor, at
Milledgeville, never said one word
about the judgment of that Court.
Oh, no, not they ; for they had de
ceived the people so bad in 1855,1856,
and 1857, that they bated to raise the
veil and expose to the people the cor
ruption of the Democratic leaders,
both Federal and State.
1 will say to the Atlanta Intelli
gencer, that his information about !
Col. Speer’s prospects, as a successful
candidate for Congress, is all gam
mon. The people of* the third Dis
trict have not forgot, neither shall
they forget while 1 can hold a pen,
the promises made about Kansas be
coming a slave State —the fair and
equal chance to make Kansas a slave
State. The people of the third
District have never, nor never will
endorse the Kansas bill, Squatter
Sovereignty, and the Cinninnati
Platform. No, Sir. Douglas and
the Kansas bill, Brown and the Cin
cinnati Platform, Col. Speer and ;
Squatter Sovereignty, can’t come it
down here. The Opposition party
intend to let the peopple know that
Douglas, the Kansas bill, Squatter
Sovereignty and the Cincinnati
Platform all embody and do c-mtain
the abominable principle and doc
trine of the Nicholson letter, writ
ten by General Cass in 1848. Gov.
Brown stands upon the Cincinnati
Plats am, and that platform is the
offspring or child of the Kansas bill,
and Kansas bill is, as Judge Iverson
says, “a cursed thing of unmeaning
uncertainties and generalities.” The
“Squatter Sovereignty elements of
the Kansas bill lost the South Kan
sns.” The same language used in
the Cincinnati Platform as to the
power the people of the Territory
have over the subject of slavery in
the Territories, is to he found almost
word for word in the Kansas bill.
Haynk. 1
For the Georgia Citizen.
Who is to be Fooled.
The Dougins v ing of the Democracy are
going to vote for Gov. Brown, and the Iver
son wing will probably do the same to a
great extent. Yet, it : s evident that the
Iverson party would not touch Gov. Brown,
if they were sure that he would throw his
weight in the Douglas scale; nor would
the Douglas wing support him if they were
confident he was against them. It looks
like (lie matter had a Northern and a South
ern construction. Who is to be deceived ?
Who can tell the winner ? Bob.
For the Georgia Citizen.
No Confidence in their Leader
Gov. Drown Bays that he cannot put up
with less than 30,000 majoritv. You hear
the Democracy making fun of the Opposi
tion. But if you banter them for a bet, they
wont take you at 20,000. Why gentlemen
of tin* Democracy ! you don’t presume to
put your judgment against Gov. Brown, do
you ? Ho says he can beat the best man the
Opposition ran bring out, 30,000 votes.—
Have faith in what your leader savs—give
30,000 odds, put down your pile, and break
the Opposition. 808.
Atlcnd to it Promptly.
We clij) the following notice from the
Atlanta Nalional American. Our friends
will observe the importance of the movement,
and we hope will not fail to respond prompt
ly, as much gojd may result from it :
CORRESPONDENCE SOLICITED.
Tho following named gentlemen have been
appointed by the Fulton State Rights Ciub,a
Committee of Correspondence, to serve
during the present canvass. It is very de
sirable that our friends in every section of the
tion of the State shall communicate freely
with them, upon the prospects of the Oppo
sition, in their respective localities. It will
be the duty of this Committee, also, to pro
cure Speakers and Documents for such
localities as may be without them. Will our
friends, everywhere, give us their coopera
tion in this important movement ?

“Good News from Carroll!”
. Our information says the National Ameri
can, from reliable sources in various sections
of the is of the most cheering charac
ter, and leaves no doubt upon our minds
that, if our friends are true to themselves
and the interests and honor of our glorious
old Commonwealth, WARREN AKIN
WILL BE OUR NEXT GOVERNOR !
The opposition in every part of the State
may rely upon this statement. Let them,
if heretofore desponding, take courage. “A
long pull, a strong pjil and a pull altogether”
will most assuredly result in a glorious vic
tory in October,

• the fol-
Rrsolced, That the Steam l’ropelw^ 0 p t
gomery, in all her appointments, is a .
class vessel, and particularity adapted to the
service, in which she is employed, as a Pas
senger coaster, between New Jfork and .Sa
vannah—and as such, we cheerfully recom
mend her to those who have occasion to
travel by sea, between those ports.
Resolctd, That we feel ic to be a piece ot
good fortune seldom enjojed, that we have
made this trip in a vessel of such staunch
and sea-worthy qualities, and under the
command of a gentleman who is so pre-emi
nently qualified, by skill, experience and
courteous beuri; g, to lender the voyage an
unalloyed pleasure to all the passengers.
Resulted, That our thanks are due, and are
hereby tendered, to Capt. Frederick Crocker,
for his polite attention to his guests on the
present voyage, und for the unremitting de
votion to lus duties as commander—and that
we will ever bear in remembrance his uni
form kind consideration towards all on board,
as one of the green islets on the wide waste
of Life’s Ocean, that can never sink into ob
livion.
Resoled, That Capt. Crocker, in the
prompt transfer of a sick lady passenger from
the steerage to a state room in the ladies,
cabin, shows that in the exercise ol his nobl
and hazardous calling his heart has not been
hardened against tin; misfortunes of his fellow
creatures, but that he has a soul susceptible
of tlw benevolent impulses of humanity and
alive to the better emotions of our common
nature.
Resolved, That we hear, with pride and
pleasure, that our esteemed Captain will
shortly be promoted to the command of a
vessel of higher grade and capabilities, and
we embrace the occasion to express our con
victions, that the splendid new propeller
Richard R. Cuyler, now equip) ing for a
place in this lino o, Steamships, ctuld receive
upon her quarter deck no one bet’er quali
fied than Capt. ('rocker, for the re>jK>nsible
position in rest rve for him. We congratu
late him in advance ot his transfer to the
Cut leu, and congratulate the travelling
public that his services will be at their dis
posal, and in a much more enlarged sphere
of usefulness.
Resolved, That the subordinate officers of
the Montgomery, are deserving ol our com

excellent manner, in which the duties of
their respective stations have been discharg

Gov. Itron 11 tuid tli<‘ Poor Wo
11X4*11-
The Atlanta Intelligencer in endeavoring
to reply to our article respecting the Veto of
Gov. Brown in the case of Mrs. Zinn,
says :
“We put it to all fair minded inen, if that
is not a sensible veto ‘! How easy could that
woman have freed herself from her husband,
by getting a divorce. Georgia had a law
made especially for her case. She had no
need to go before the Legislature. The State
of Georgia has already been guilty of pass
ing two many special acts, to cover cases
that might have been reached by general
statutes.”
No doubt she could have obtained a di
vorce. Hut look at the difference of the
circumstances in which the poor woman
would bo placed, in selecting between the
two remedies belbre her ? The Legislature
could grant her relief from her husband's
liabilities without cost or delay—even at less
cost than to record and print the Governor’s
Veto in the Journals of the Legisla ure.
To obtain a divorce it would require two
terms of ihe Superior Court. Now what are
the costg ? First, a lawyers fee would be
about fifty dollars —the costs of Court about
twelve dollars. The publication of a libel
for divorce, in a newspaper for four months,
eight dollars or more. Now how much time
will all this consume ? And what is the
poor woman to do during that time 1 How
can she support herself and children, and
pay ali expenses ? Everything she had
ccukl bo seized. If she makes a dress for a
neighbor the account is subject to garnish
ment for the debts of a runaway husband 1
Yet while the Governor couia have given
her the necessary relief, with the single dash
of the pen, (as Governors have done before
in such cases,) his organ requires of her one
to two years time to obtain a divorce, at the
expense of probably a hundred dollars. This
is indeed, most beautiful an J humane rea
i soning. Perhaps, like the Governor’s Veto,
something might be found in the “New
Testament,” to sustain it. Let them see.—
To cap the climax of inhumanity and folly,
the organ asks, “was not this a sensible Ve

“Mr. Douglas’ essay can be regarded
in no other light than as an incendiary
document , calculated to produce nothing
less than a repetition of the anarchy and
bloodshed which has lately disgraced the
soil ot our Territoi les. We publish it
only for the purpose of pointing out its
errors, and of warning the conservative
men of the whole country against this
last and most dangerous phase which
