THE PiM FAMILY The lovers of good tawHC will remember thnt this teleuted company, who have won Buch a wide-spread reputation for their Concert*, will open the Athwoemn to night.

'lELLlft'tfF M COST!” The special attention of our readers > 8 called to the advertiaeipent of our enter prining friend, Mr. 8. Frankforo, who offer* for cost, a fine and varied supply of dry goods, fancy article*, and clothing.'— In these hard times, when economy is im poaed upon all who are prudent, the in. , duoement which Mr. Frankford offers wilj doubtleM operate to his advantage and that of those who cal! at his store to pur chase. He does not either, like many others, “hide Lis light under a bushel,” but advertises the favors he is ready to be. stow upon the public, and for this also merit* a double share of patronage. HON. A. H. STEPHEMS. The speech of Mr. StepheAs in reply to Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, vindicating Geor gia from the aspersi ins of the latter, is one justly applauded by die prom without distinction of party. We regret that we have not space enough in our columns to give it an insertion. But as we are aware that many tbouaands of it are forthcoming i» pamphlet form, we trust that it will soon be placed in the hands of our readers. This speech of Mr. titophens is decidedly one of his ablest efforts. It was a com plete triumph over his opponent, who af fects to be the leader of the Free Soil, auti-Nebraska Abolition Whigs nf the House. OppoOed a* wo hove always been to Mr. Stephens’ party end politics, we yet fe*l proud of his success in putting down his tuitagonisl, and congratulate him upon Ids elmpent vindication of his native State from the tnisrepresontatioua and assaults of Ida adversary. • THE 7oCI7sPOTION BILL. This bill has. at last, after a fierce op* position, passed the House, and only await B the concurrence of the Senate to ccrtaui nmendtuents, which it has, ere this, doubt, it* received, to become a law. Five mil iums of dollari is made the limit to the appropriation to pay the claimants, and five per cent Government mA. is to bo issued to that amount. We rejoice at th* final disposition of this matter by Congress.— Already, in legislation, double the amount has been expended, besides a great waste of time, detrimental to the public inter ests. Congrera is now done with the sub ject, anil so, wn Lope, are letter writers and the press. The vote by which it p wwed the House was 110 to 76. —■ » n < . - - WWI. We learn that the bridge on the Htste over tho Hightower River wsa destroyed, oir yesterday, by fire. Tho particulars, in rof. renee to it* destruction, we have not yet Irnrned GOVERNOR JOHNSON AND THE SOUTHERN RE CORDER. ’ - W. p. r«*lVe that our osu dly dtsetoet cotvinponwy, the Milledgeville Recorder, h in eeslacies at the evidence which it pit rude* of upp(»ition to Govermu John-on 1 y certain papers claiming to be demo cratic. We dislike innvh to di.turh tlv Record*<• in it* pl<:i«unt dr* mis of the tu tors. But as sad reality will be certain to do thia, we eau see nn barm in preparing that paper for an event which must trnns pfe-e, and which will be aertnia »o dispel the Uln«iou now overpowering the discr*. tien of its Editors Will the Editors of the R coitlvr »na snlt it*.own. and the numerous tiles of other papers in their efin c, aud point to •ny p* l * o *! > u tlw history of Gs'orffia pol itics, envetlng the existence of the Re corder, under any admini-t ration of our Htate Government, when dlsa*»etion to <*rdt the Exert 'tin -Rd not *Jh>w rtsvlf and tUrentcn just what the Rcenrdci snd those wlnaic opinions It delight* to spread befoiw Its readers, predict in rest rm c- to Qnv Joiixsux? After this, will it gt» farther and tell its the Jtna/eof *1! tho di’, and of al! the threat* .» Why one wold tAirA that the Recorder’s Editor* I Were young in their profession, when they 1 arc caught so greedily snntehing at every I assault made upon the Governor, anJ an guring from them ‘ dian.-ters diw” tn the democrat io cause 1 They forget, that this tiling of disaffection prevail*, ba* prevail ed, and will prevail, among a few, aim in st those who have honors to confer, or pat rvnage to bestow. It existed uu<l r every administration of our State Government, within our recollection ; and that it ha* hern kept out of the payers so tong, in rcl’vrenoe to Governor Joiinsox, is a mat. ter only of wonder to uh But it is well that the Recorder rejoices now, for in the future It will have to mourn. Governor «f«.UM*OM will not only be the ohoice, and nominee of the democratic convention but he will be re-elected Governor of Geor gia, by a sweeping majority. Allsiieb as saults as those referred to, only serve to rally the leiuocraey of the State ; and when rallied, there arc none who know better than the Recorder does, that they, and their chief, are invincible. Will the Recorder reflect upon what we sty, and prepare tor the future. We know that Governor Johnson is a affliction tolhut paper, but, like Job, the Editors , must he patient This advice is all the • consolation we can offer, and that it may have a good effect, we can only hone. •YOUNG AMERICA VnO* YOUNG DEMOCRACY; The ‘‘Southern Recorder’' thinks that the caption above, and the remarks which fallowed from our pen is “rather olarm ing to ternk Doubtless it i* so, but wo hope it did not disturb those of the Recorder. If it did, we regret that we cannot, in candor, say, that we are sorry fbr it. Weak nerves are generally the consequence of a weak and despairing cause. Just snch a cause our cotempor ary is engaged in vuin, though able and zealous efforts, to advance. We would that it were more profitably employed, but, despairing of tins, its nerves will have to endure, we feel certain, many a severe, and oft repeated shock. Under the opcr-' ation, may it preserve a discreet bearing 1 and submit, with diguity, to the onward . program of “Young America and the! Young Democracy.” If it docs not • “A/tM” we fear, will be mado of its col umns. The Recorder will excuse the use of so rude a term, but it is one which the hard fisted democracy of the State, well , understand. HON. W*C.*DAWSON. Several ot the whig papers in Georgia | have recently used the name .of this gen tleman in connection with the office of Governor. In reference to his candidacy tor that, station we have hut little to say,' . and that little may be autnmod up in Ute. remark, that the whigs could not select; from their ranks a better man—one that has always, in prosperity and adversity. I proved faithful to hie party. lu nderring now to this gentleman, our ; purpose is not tn speculate upon the runnr l afloat as to his candidacy for thia, or { that station. We have ijuite a differ-' ent object in view. On the fourth of March newt, the Senatorial term which Mr. DaWMQX is now filling, will expire, and he will again be iu our midst, a private citizen. It is du* him to siy that in the discharge of his duty to his constituents at Washington, and to his State, aside from party, we have heard but one voice, and j I that voic* au approving one. We are i t well advised that at Washington; in the Senate; and at ths Department*; his j courtesy, energy, and devotion to the bu j siuess of his constituents, are not onlv ! borne witness to, but are highly appreci , ated On ail sides, therefore, he will ! , meet with a hearty home welcome, from whig* and democrats, mid should be again : I appear in the field as the leader of the whig force, we shall congratulate the de- , uiocracy upon having a foe to vanquish “worthy of their steel” stiC A bill was presented iu the Illiums; «Legislature,on the IGth inst., to prevent ■ the carrying of tvlorvd people on the rail roads of that State, which was read twice j and referred, and will piobably pass the I i House of Representatives. This bill pro vides that no “black or colored person, de-' nominated a negro, shall be carried on or ' >, along any rail road in this Stole, without a. duly certified certificate of freedom of such oegr ioi mulatto person being first pre sented to the conductor of the train and a copy of such certificate left with the con ductor or agent.” Section 2 provides that .iany rail rn*d company, or its conductor or' •Jagent, which carries a slave without any »neh certifivato, shall bo liable to the own- ■er of such slave, or mulatto, in twice the ■ I value of such slave, to bo roeovored in the' . usual way. , • ■»-»*»■ I A Clergy mau in a New Hampshire ‘ ’ j pnlpil. having, with earnest eloquence ur*} ged his eongregatum to abstain, on Thanksgiving ihy, f. om all In Ku and all ' iot-iuos pursuits,and to atteuJ church iu . t die forenoon, concluded with this touch in* appeal ; “Ifauy of the breUeri: are ;at leisure in the afternoon, I should be pleased lu **e ‘.hem at my Louse, as I in- » tend to take that opportunity, should fi iendt enough asseinlje, to More my' born ’»» MESSAGE OF ANOTHER |NOW NOTHING GOVERNOR. The Know Nothing organs are sadly perplexed about the m'essagesof their Guv nors. It has been held out that, the Or ' der bad determined to take high national ■ ground on the slavery question; but f, before the ink was dry on the page containing the announcement, Gover nor Gardner of Mass., threw the fat in the fire by urging the re-establishment , of the Mtaaoui'i Compromise and the i re-establishment the of Missouri Compro ) mi*e and the grunting of habeas corpus and • trial by jury to fugitive slaves. And now ’ comes Governor PbUock <»i' Pennsylvania, ‘ whom the Know Nothings elected over ; Bigler, a Nebraska man, and in his inau r gural denounces Nebraska Bill as “an at- I tempt to exteudthe institution ofslnvery,” and “a violation of the plighted hon ’or us the country expressed his opposi- ■ tion to the extension of slavery into terri tory now free demand for the fugitive , slave “the trial by jury, and the writ of habeas corpus,” and winds up this farrago ’ of abolition by asserting that all these ’ abominable treasons were sanctioned by , hi* election. And upon the heels of this outrage the . Know Nothing Legislature of Ma**achu setts have nominated General Wilson, an arch Abolitionist and Free Boiler, as their 1 candidate for U. S. Senator. . . • Sti’.l we do not charge that the Know >. Nothings are Abolitionists, we only pub lish what they say and do, and leave it to the people to judge of the “varmint by bis tail.” This sign is bad. Thu Consumption of Paper.—Forty L years ago, three men, by handiwork, could , scarcely manufacture 4,000 einallsheetsol paper in a day, while now, by the use of ; machinery, they can produce BO,UUOin the J 1 same time. It has been calculated that if ‘ the paper produced yearly by six machines i ; could be put together, the sheet would on- i . circle the world. Nowhere is paper so ■ i much valued as in the United States. In ’ France, with 35,000,000 of inhabitants,; • only 70,000 tons are produced yearly, of ’ which one-seventh is for exportation.’ In [ Britain, with 28,000,000 of inhabitants, [ 66,000 tons are produced, while the a- . mount produced in the United States is ’ nearly as great as in France and England ' together j The Libel Law. —Judge Oakley, of | Michigan, recently expressed an opinion , j that when an editor of a newspaper merely • I j states a rumor that is abroad—such, for . example, as that a certain person, naming ! J him, had issued stock illegally and ab ’; sconded—he should be exonerated, provi- ■ ded that it was a fact that the rumor ex piated, although not true. In such a case j • there w no intent to do injury, and there; |iis no malice. A circumstance that is com- i ’ mouly spoken of in business circles as a , { matter of public interest ought not to be • regarded as libellous when an editor states ‘ •l il ■ .... -1 €fcaF* A correspondent of ihe Petemburg , 1 Express states that there are at this time’ r | sixteen hundred men employed at th* ; j Gosport (Va.) Navy Yard Never was! there so much to do, or so much money * J disbursed at the yard. It requires largely ! over $30,000 everv two weeks to pay oft i; the hands. Besides fitting out the brigs. , I Perry and Dolphin for the coast of Africa, i they are building two immense steamers, ‘ i the Colorado and liosnnke, and preparing t for uea the frigate Potomac and Raritan, ’ 1 and the sloop Constellation. r ’"■"J 1" L ■—? • . i Atlanta Lodge, No. 59.
