In Georgia, the crop has ftu{farad some from the rust, but, on the whole, will yield a fair average, and new wheat rnny he expected in June. In North Carolina, extensive damage is reportod to have been done by the rust. The high price which it Is expected will rule fur good wheatM in June and July, will probably induce every effort to get the Southern crop early to market—which railroads and steamships greatly facilitate, as compared with former years. _ _ Judge tone We regret to loarn that the Hun.

This made plain, the reader will have no difficulty in comprehending the import of every telegraphic dispatch and tbs movements of the contending armies. Sardinia is only about one hundred miles in breadth. Its principal King doms are Savoy, Piedmont and Genoa. Savoy, its northwest Kingdom, is conterminous along its entire length with Franco, it ally. Piedmont is the centre and Genoa, the South-Eastern King dom, touche* party Austria, its eueuiy. Switz erland is on the North and the Duchy of Parma supply a part of the Southern boundary of Sar dinia. Austrian Lombardy, where the Austrians have now gathered in large forces, form a part of the eastern boundary of Sardinia—the river Ticino, being the line of division. On the west, tho Alp is the border. So the territory where tb struggle will for the present, at least, be con fined, will be limited on the east by tbe river Ticino, and ou the west by the Aips—a distance only, as above stated, of about one hundred miles. Within this space, where is confined the %cen of action, is the principal fortress of Sardin ia, upon which site rolios with oonfidonen for se curity. This territory is called Piedmont. The river Po divides it from west to est. Above the Po to the Swiss Alps the country is plain and level. This is left entirely exposed to the Austrians, who will moot with no opposition in taking possession, if they desire It. Houth of the Po, however, down to Genoa, on tbe lake, the country is mountainous and takes in its range the strong holds of the Sar dinians, namely, Alessandria, Casalo andTortona. On the west, in thn dnbti.>u of the Alps, nlsuds I'urio, the capital of tbe Btate. This is the city whioh the Austrians are reported as being on their march to capture from Milan, a town in their own Kingdin. A straight line drawn across tbe map from Milan to Briancon, in France, where the French pass on their march to th* Alps, will ruu through Turin. Th* distunco from Husa, where the French halt after crossing the Alps, to Turin, is about thirty threo miles. The distunco from Buffalora, where tbe Austrians passed the Ticino, on the same line, to Turin, is seventy miles. Thus, it will be men, that the Austriaus have double the distance to travel that the French have to reach Turin. But this inequality is more than compensated by tho natural difficulties at tending the two roads. From Buffalora to Turin, on tbe loft bank of tbe Po, the Austrians march from west to east through a plain country, easily traversed, and can mako great timed. Tbe French on tbe contrary, have the Alps to pass at Mont Genie, which is now covered with snow, and a very difficult task to perform. The time lost in their slowucss of travel over this mountain bar rier is gained in the distance overcome by the Austriaus through a smooth country. If then, it Is tho policy of Austria to capture Turin and dictate terms t> # hr enemies, it is very easily accomplished. With one hundred and twenty thousand men, it would bo no great under taking to reduce the walls of Turin to ashes be fore tbe arrival of a sufficient number of French troops to make the .Sardinians offer a respectable resistance. If the fate of tbe war depended upon the capture of this city, it would require no expe rienced observer of the times to anticipate the end. But Austria, notwithstanding her vantage ground, will display very bail generalship to push forward to take this city. Albeit she might occupy it, it would only shear her of her strength, ami deprive her of hor position before the war olosed. Supposing, however, Turin taken by the Aus trians, as it is reported they urn bent upon this design, then, the left flank of the Austrian army ia exposed to tho Sardinians from the South, who are lying thick at Alessandria. Connected, as this point is, with a railway to Genoa, which the French can reach by sea from Toulon, only a dis uiuce of fifty union, tho allied army would march uorth to the Po, and intercept the line of commu nication of the Austrians with their own King 'ilvMb.and cut oft’ all r*infnn-.ini>ni, and aun- in tho meantime, France could Mud a force by Genua to Alessaudria, that would crush the Aus trians at Turin. Austria has more generalship than to commit such a blunder. Her policy is to staud nl-ill and fortify herself 8h is now op posed by two bodies of the enemy—one at Turin directly facing her nndd rawing rs inforceracn is ev ery day from the French through the passage of the Alps. The other Hanking her at the South at Alessandria and Fannie ami receiving supplies and aid from Ueuon. where the French have ne eds by way of tho sea. From this, it will he seen, t hat Austria bus a foe in front of her and one, al so, on her left. From these two basis of o|*erations, via., Genoa on the Sea, and Suia noar tho Alps, tho allied lowers possess a great advantage. Tho diotance from those two points to the prin cipal iortressesot the Sardinian Kingdom is not great. From Genoa on the seaboard to Aleaaan dria, it is only 46 tuilcs. From Sum, on the Wed, to Turin, it is only 33 miles. At both Susa ami Genoa, the Sardinians can be relieved by their Allies, from Genoa to Aroua, iu tho North, the point, occupied by tho Austrians, it i one hundred and teu miles. From Arona, in uwostwardiy direction, to Susa it is about the same distance. Thns is the field of operations cir cumscribed within narrow limits. Whoro tbo Austrians now lie encamped at Novara, Mortara, andVereeli, they are near their own Kingdom und hence have access to supplies. Unloss they are sufficiently stroug to march with one division of thuir army more than seventy miles to the West and capture Turin and with the tithor Southward to Alessandria, a distance of more than sixty miles, and take this fortress, pol icy would suggest tliat they keep the bulk of their army at a fortified spot near the Ticino, forcing tho allied forces to make (ho attack. It will not have escaped uotieo that Mortara, being the stronghold of tho Austrians, and Genoa the point where Napoleon 11., will command in pvrsou his Imperial Guard and concentrate the flower of his army, that an engagement is more probable ou the line to Alessandria than on the route to Turiu. The report that tho Austrian army had blown up the bridge of Uuffalora after crossing it into ibe enemy’s country, we are disposed to doubt.— Surely, it could Ih> of uo advantage to Austria to cut off her own means of retreat and receiving re enforcements, when there was no danger of her enemy following her up in the rear. I pun tho whole, then, we tire disposed to think that Austria never contemplated iurading Sardin ian territory further than was necessary to ac complish some political wove, which may assist her iu the settlement of the Italian quoatiou. She will remain in our opinion upon tho ground she now occupies, confident that she is too strong to be overcome. ‘U,rrf lourl -Mon. Union Stephen., tppolatrd.

Resolved, That this great and important line of .Southern railway is most earnestly recommen ded to the people of the several States through which it passes, upon the grounds that when com pleted it will constitute a must pownrful instru ment to combine and strengthen tbe South, es tablish its commercial independence, develop its vast agricultural resources and promote the geuo ral prosperity of the whole Union. I have also been instructed to report tbo fol lowing resolution: Resolved, That this convention have received with much satisfaction a communication from the municipal authorities of Momphis, upon the sub joct of direct tride between the Southern port” and the continent of Europe at Ghent or An twerp, and that the wholo correspondence be re commended to the consideration of the Southern public.

Resolved, That looking to the magnitude of our interests on the subject, this Convention re commends to the people of the Southern State*, as the best means of accomplishing these objects, Ist, the encouragement by all lawful tneai.s of the republican spirit on the Island of Cuba, and the development of tbo sentiment of freedom cherish ed by the natives and lilmral* of that Island: 2d, the speedy Americanisation by every lawful effort of the Isthmian States, by which they shall be placed under American rule; 3d, that they de mand of the Government cf the United States the abrogation of the Clayton Buiwer treaty, and that the Government shall bring the force of its moral and physical influence to the aid ot its suc cessful example, in encouraging the development and snreadof republican principles and free iusti *nd Among all the people and States on the con tinent. 1 have also been instructed to report hack, with a recommendation that it be adopted by the Con ventinn, the following resolution by the same gentleman: Resolved, That the success of the Republican party in the election of a President of the 1 mted State*, by a sectional majority in 1860, upon the principles above declared, will be a virtual disso littiouof the compact of the existing union of the Blatex, and in that event this Convention recom mends to the people of the slaveholding State* to meet immediately id Convention to determine the mode and mean* of upholding the Constitutional Government as it at present exists, by preventing the installation into office of a Republican Presi- | dent, and the inauguration of the Republican party in power, or, failing in that, to resolve the Mlaveholding Stales into a separate, independent organisation, with such constitutional form of Government as will beat secure their safety, their honor, their rights and institutions, and make them a power of ths earth.

He yore with Alabama ! Has no voice to utter bimsolf! Oh no! tbe people must determine the question and I (Mr. Judge) will not “gainsay” it! Tbe people will bring in a verdict of con demnation against Mr. Judge in August; will lie “yainsuy” it ? Will he acknowledge this judgment and yield his own convictions to its eorreetnett? Or will he die in the faith of bis principles, and, like a true patriot, who, rather than submit to the will of a Slate Convention, which to him was odi ous in tbe extreme, would raise the banner of “right and the Constitution"—would appeal from mere “ party ism to the people”—would vindicate the honor and integrity of bis State at all hazard* —would lift tho kocn blade of his own acini iter above the eloud of submission and lei it bristle beneath tbe bright light of a Southern *uu ! The true lover of tbe South would never hesitate to proclaim tho truth, albeit, a State Convention frowned upon bis principles—would never hesitate to “gainsay” its decree —would combat tho de potism of an unhealthy public soulirnent with all the tool of a religious conviction. This is what a patriot would do, and not the artful dodger, wb-.se aim is to secure the votes of Southern men by a sham display ofsouthern enthusiasm.

We presume our cotempornry has no desire to give to the policy of f*late aid the sanctiuu of a legislative endorsement in opposition tothewinh es of the people. They have to foot the hills, pay the taxes, and it is just and proper that they should decide upon tbe objects to which the mo ney shall be appropriated. Now, in view of this, we propose an amendment to the proposition of our cotemporary. It i that, previous to the as sembling of a convention for tbe purpose above referred to, tbe voters of tbe State be allowed to , ~ . * upon uie question of Stain aid.

The Commercial intelligence from Europe to be I found iu our Telegraphic Column this morning, J is highly important. The sudden transition which j has taken place in the Cotton, Breadstuff* and .Money markets indicates, cither that there is a , prospect of an amicable settlement between the belligerent parties on tbe continent, or that tbe contest, on tbe verge of which they are trembling, will bo less extensive in its involutions than has heretofore, recently, been supposed. The sudden decline in Cotton and Consols, aud the equally rapid advance in Breadstuff*, which were a few days sinco reported, were to be attributed in some measure, to tbe belief that Russia had joined France in her defence of Italy. Thi* rumor, for which the London Time* is responsible, excited great alarm in England, and very justly. Had it been true, tho probability would have been greatly increased that England would ultimately be drawn into tbe conflict. Reasons, both com mercial and political, might have urged her, with a persuasiveness which she could not withstand, to enlist in behalf of Austria against a combina tion, of tbe ulterior object of which very little doubt could have been cutcrtained. The report ed alliance proving to be unfounded, may well ac count for the commercial and mouetury reaction, independent of our speculation, as to a pacific ar rangement between tbe parties already in the field.
