Routed, horse, foot, and dragoons, the idea is preposterous that in either of those States,‘Sam’ will ever dare j again to show his face. To us, during I the conflict, it nppeared that a madness had seised upon that parly indicative of its destruction in each of those States ; and we trusted that its signal overthrow would ; prove a salutary lesson and w arning to its ! twin brother in Georgia. But in this we i have been disappointed, for “ whom the Gods ' seek to destroy they first make mad,” and [ until the destruction eos.is, madness must prevail. By this party, who is not reTiled ?

He receiv d :• turougb tne mail, did it, ho, (Mr. Miller) although lie had sup ported him for twelve or thirteen years, an d was not a member of the American order, abandoned him. 3. Mr. Miller charged that Mr. Stephens had said in a speech in the House of Repre sentatives, that Kansas, under the operation of the laws of climate, Ac., would be a free State. He read a report of his remarks up on this subject from a newspaper and appeal ed to Mr. Stephens to know if it was correct. Mr. Stephens promptly replied that it was not, and Mr. Miilet as promptly withdrew the charge. 4. Mr. Miller charged that Mr. Stephens, in a public speech at some place, during the last canvass in this district for Congress, had said, ‘elect me and save Kansas,’ and gave as his authority for the charge, Malcolm Jones, E up, of Burke county. 5. Mi. Miller read from the Constitution alist of 1853, a portion of Mr. Stephens speech delivered in the House of Represent atives in 1845, upon the annexation of Tex as. It was published in that paper in juxta position with a letter of Mr. Dix of New York, written in 1853 to Dr, Garvin of this city, and introduced in a few remarks by the then Editor of the Constitutionalist, in which he asked, ‘If Mr. Dix is a Freesoiler> what is Alexander Hamilton Stephens The portion ot Mr. Stephens’ speech read by Mr. Miller was as follow' *• / am no defender of flovery in the abstraet. Liberty always had charms for me, and 1 would rejoice, to sec all the sons of Adam's fin ily, in every land and cliine, in the enjoy ment of those rights which are set forth in our Declaration of Independence as ‘natural and inalienable,' if a item necessity bearing the marks and impreu of the band nf the Crea tor himself, did not in some rases interpose and prevent.' Mr. Miller defended Mr. Stephens from ‘.he charge made by tlte Constitutionalist (winch by the way was not made) that he was a Freesoiler, declared that he did not believe lie was, and seemed to have read the extract, for tne occasion which it afforded him to declare, as he did, that he was ‘a de fender of slavery in the abstract.' 6. Mr. Miller approved the doctrine of non-intervention —approved the resolution of the Democratic State Convention, demand ingtlie recallo, W aiker—denounced Walker, denounced Buchanan and the membars of his cabinet, (refering particularly to Mr Cobb) for his treachery to the South, in sustaining Walker in his violation of the principles of the Kansas-Nebraslta act, stat ed that the northern democracy would sus tain him, and then stated that if he had been l" Congress at the time of the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska art, with the lights before him, he would hare rated uguinst it. 1. Mr. Miller stated that Mr. Stephens had said in his address to the voters of the dis trict, in reference to Mr. Buchanan's admin istration, that‘apart from this Walker busi ness, no administration has ever, in my day, so full; met my cordial approval,’ and he called upon him to state what it had done j to secure from him this hearty endorsement • of approval, and by what us history, thus : lar, iiad been marked, except treachery to the South in this Walker business, and tread., ry to me Kansas-Nebraska act, with which Mr. Stephens in his address had said j that he was identified. ! We have given, we believe, the substance I of Mr. MTier's spt-ech. If there is anything I of ai.v importance omitted by us. or ineor- j rec.iy stated, he can have the use of r. u{ co |. j urnns to supply it or to correct it. I Mr. Stephens, rising to reply, begged that j his auditors would remain perfectly ,;uiet< | as iie had but a short time in which to ad- . dress them, and desired that everything he j said should be heard ar.d understood. This ) request was not heeded, for almost every sentence he uttered was received withshouts of applause, and he had frequently to pause in the midst of a sentence, and wait until the ''to Mr. he asks efl wtot hnd it Wlnadone, which n eon them ana Mold with propriety aak th*t n Nation*! AdniaMrntlon tkoold fio. What had Mr BnmaxAX done, to recommend hint to the coo- fidence cf aonthm mto l. He bad appointed four southern ratoai member* of hi* cabinet, sod from tb* Narthttlmdtelected three oth era who fcnd beta dtotpgntord for their Arm, unyielding and uulflek devotion to the consti tutional right* of lb* South. Two of them, Gen. Cars and Mr. Torcn, had sacrificed them- relvcs at borne, and been defeated by Black Republicans because they stood by the South in ber hour of need, and Mr. Bcciian.i* had shown his appreciation of their broad nation ality, and bis inclination to protect the north, era defenders of southern rights, by calling them to the high office and selecting them as his Cabinet advisers. What had he done ?— Ue had, in hia inaugural address, done more than any man who had preceded him in the Presidential office ever bad done, in giving in his adhesion in advance of its delivery to the principles of the Dred Scott decision ofthe Sa. prente Court, and proclaiming, as a rule for the conduct o! his Administration, the true doctrine of southern eqolity in] the Territories of the Union. What had he done ? He had given us the whole goveramental organization of the Territory of Kansas, had recognised the laws of the Territory of Kansas, hud recognis ed the laws of that Territory, against which the Black Republicans hud revolted, ami hud placed southern uieo in every office of honor or influence in the Territory, and had placed no man in office in Kansas, or nuywbere else, who was not pledged to sustain the Kansas- Nebraska act aud all the other legislation of Congress, which secured to the Fouth her rights under tne Constitution. What had he done ? — What hud he not done which a southern tuuu, with any propriety cuuld ask that u President ofthe United States should do. Mr. Stkpukns then denied emj hatically that he had ever denounce.) members of the Ameri can Order, ns "midnight assassitis” in uny speech be had ever made. He had never, in any public speech, suid anything of the mem bers of the American party, which was design ed to wound their feelings, or which ought to have wouuded their feelings. His best and truest Iriends were memb;rs of that Order.— No feeling with him was stronger than that of gratitude. He was grateful to them for their loog and unwavering support of him, but be cause he was grateful to them—because he was under obligations to them—because they were his friends, he felt it his duty to speak plainly to them and to warn them of the dangers which lay in the path they were pursuing when they connected themselves with the American Order. The Order be had denounced—not its members He bud denounced it in 1S55, at the City Hall in Augusta—lie bad denounced it when it wus thought to be irresistible, and he could not be expected to deny that he had done this now that it was dead—that nobody defended it —and that this honorable competitor who charged it upon him, thought that his b(at re commendation to the people of this District was the fact that he never belonged to it!— He had deuounced it, as an organization tend ing, like the Jacobin clubs cf France, to the subversion of all government, aud the inaugu ration of anarchy, and as an organization de structive of all the social virtues of our people, and for these reasons, and in this way, ho was stiil ready to denounce it. ilis opponent (Mr. M iller) had no occasiou to abandon him after supporting him tor twelve or thirteen years, upon the ground that be bad denounced the members of the Americau Order—because he had not done it, and in this connection, refer ing to Mr. Miller’s statement, that be had sustainec him for twelve or thirteen years, he rema ked, thnt he hnd represented the Eighth district only (our years—had been a ,candidate lor Congress twice, and Mr. Miller had voted for him once, and against him once. Tbb was an illustration of Mr. Miller’s loose way of stating facts. Mr. Stephens then denied that he had ever sail in any public speech, “elect me and save Kunsus.” He had Lever as u candidate for CoDgress, made a speech in the place where Mr- Miller had charged that he had made use of this expression. If Mr. Jones stated that he had, Mr. Jones was mistaken. When a candidate for ti e last Congress, the repeal of the Kansas-Nebraska act was the great que-s- tiuu agitated at the North. He had besought the people of this District to stand by that act and by those who would sustain it, butbe never had said “ elect me and save Kansas." Mr. Stephens then referred to that portion of his Texas speech which bad been quoted by Mr. Miller, remarking that the Constitutional- isl. in 1853, bad published it, he supposed, in juxtaposition with the letter of Mr. Dix or Dr. Garvin, not so much to show that he was a # jasUtotts lervi j£ X-jilfcoiler of M txrHknpatWd t° ■Wfc (fafi'Mts" til till oppwwiocsead tyrannies winch fcdertr bara psaeUeed by while rasa Mr IliUar had boastsd that he was a defender of slavery in tbs abstract He was not—liberty rather had charms for him—he would bo glad to see all the race of Adam free, but lie recog nized as be bad stated in his Texas speech, facts and circumstances connected with the African race, which justified and required its subjection to the white. Georgia was not less a free State, less devoted to the principles of liberty, or less opposed to " slavery iii the ab stract,” because it recognized the institution of African slavery. 11 enslaved blacks, but it was still as free a State as Massachusetts.- Mr. Miller, iu asserting that hs was “ a de fender of slavery in the abstract,” had assert ed a doctrine which would justify the enslave ment of white men, and all Ihc oppression and tyranny which had over been praetiqe'J against them. Mr. Stephen', alter tints confounding the "defender of slavery in the abstract,’’ called the attention of his auditors to the fact that Mr. Miller, although attempting to oust him from his seat in Congress, and although re quested by him to designate the vote, or votes, given by him whilst it representative of the Eighth District, of which be. or the party he represented, complained, had failed (o desig- j nate a siugle one. j In nfi-rence to Kansas, Walker am! the i Administration, Mr. Stephens stated lint lie 'TfSoire HAUHE3310R AT1VE.-A hare oetsf iJb*a*h *fiy oAftr r$i)icioe win n large* share$1 public confidence in an short « lime aeifiia h«s duo*.

That con vention, he had stuted, had plenary powei over the subject, and could frame u Constitution recognizing or prohibiting slavery, us it might think proper, and submit it lo the people or not. as it might think proper. He was pre pared to defi ud ugain-i Gov. Walker or t 1 Administration, the right of the people of Kansas in ccnvention, to settle the question of slavery “ in their own way." His conviction wet-, that the Administration would delend this right of the people of Kansas, and that tbe national Democracy would un te in pro tecting it. Mr. Miller had stated that Mr. Buchanan approved ol everything Walker had done. Where was the proof? Mr. Miller had stated that all the Northern Democrats elected to the next Congress, would sustain fUalker. Where was the proof? He had seen it stated in a newspaper that Mr. Wall; r had stated to some gentleman that his Inaugu ral Addre=s bad been submitted to the Pr- si- dent aud to Mr. Douglas, before its delivery, und nppn v.-d by them. He did not belie ve it. The President Lad very recently wi Utcn a let ter to u number of clergymen und others, who had protested against bis action in reference t« Kansas, in which he recognized the legality of the laws under which the constitutional con vention of Kansas would be held, affirmed the true principles of the Kansas-Nebraska net ard taken issue with Gov. Walker upon no impo-« tant point in bis plan of adjustment. As to Mr. Douglas, be bad tire l---st evidence that tb s statement in reference to him was nt t tiue. Mr. Stephens then read from Mr. Doug las' speech, delivered some months ago, at •Springfield, 111., iu which that gentleman had broadly and boldly nssrrted the true princi ples of the Kansas act, and bad declared that the people of Kansas, in Convention, had the right to determine the question for thera'clvcs, and in their own way, with no limitation t.f their right in the premises but the Constitution of tbe United Slates, This wus Mr. Doug las' p-ositiou, and he believed that it would be sustained by tbe Democratic supporters of the Kansas bill at the North. But whilst it-prc- beuding the course of Walker, and of all who might sustain him, they were with him infi nitely pre erable to the houorable gentleman who was his competitor for a seat in the next Congress. Far r s they were from him in sym pathy and in principle, tbut gentleman was in finitely farther—as much farther as the stars ore beyound the planets of our solar system.— They rni'interprc-tcd the Kansas net—that gentleman opposes it, and states that if he had beet, iu Congress when it was upon its passage, he would hare voted against it. They were in favor of permitting everybody in the Territory to vote upon the question of slavery —that gjntleman opposes the legislation which opened the Territory to slavery, und gave the South a chauce to carry its institution* there. Their policy endangers the iuteres's of the South iu the Territory—if his policy had been adopted, tbe South would not have bed any interests there. .Mr. Stephens was proceediug farther to il lustrate his idea that Walker and his support ers were infinitely preferable to Mr. Miller, in his position of opeu hostility to the Kan.-bp act, when tho chairman announced that his m,iO\ NOI SE ATLANTA, GtlOHUIA. 11 Y 3d.
