In another column may be found an article from the Enquirer, headed “Mr. Trippe aud the English Hill,” to which we desire briefly to reply. It will he seen that our ootemporary, continually lashed as it is for desiring to defeat Mr. Crawford lor voting fcr the English bill, while recommend- , ingone of its vigorous supporters, Mr. Zollieoffer, for the highest office in iho'gift of the people, and j applauding .Mr. Trippo as a “faithful” public j servant, is exhausting its patience and exclaim- j in * ln tht? agony of despair, that it is “passing -irang, ‘that weeannot understand how reluctantly Mr. Tripi>e voted for the Kansas “swindle.” It insinuates that wo persist in loading Mr. Trippe with the popular odium which rests upon the sup porters of the English bill, while in fact be was 1 not “responsible” for its passage. Let this mut ter be settled right hore, and let the candid, un prejudiced reader judge how far Mr. Trippe is “responsible” for a measure, which the opposition j l )res ’ denounced as a disgraceful surrender of our rights. If the proof fails, then it is hoped (hut an impartial public sentiment will construe Mr. 1 Trippe’s vote in the same light in which it holds the votes of other Congressmen. What says the ! Enquirer in upology for Mr. Trippe ? Hear it, j “We have several times showed that Mr. : Trippe */i riiked that bill—tried to procure time ‘ tor iis discussion, so as to come at an exact un- derstanding about the effect of the land ordinance submission feature —and finally voted for it only t” enable the South to present an undivided front in Congress. The bill was the concoction and roHifimnnr of the Southern Democracy. and they i are responsible for it—not the six or eight South ern American* who reluctantly went along with them to prevent them from making a still more I disgraceful .surrender of the claims of the South. Mr. Trippo** short speech on tho bill will show all this.” The very reasons offered above for Mr. Trippe'* anootiun of the Euglish bill, would apply ©tiual ly well as objection to it. First, Mr. Trippo “di l\l *d tho bill *” Is this a plausible excuse for his voting for it ‘f Does this exculpate him from Uamu more than these men who liked it? On the contrary, does it not weigh against Mr. Trippe? Is it not an additional reason why he should have voted against it wee those men who voted for it ? If tho Enquirer'e theory be true, Mr. Crawford usd others who voted in accordance with their judgment and duty are more to be reprehended ilian Mr. Trippe, who voted against his inclina- ! tions and in direct conflict with his duty. In the one case, the rights of the South were violated without a knowledge of the faet; in the other, it was wantonly done, with the startling amiounco- ! ment falling hot from his lips ! Who lx the most : “responsible?” He wtoo did his duty conscien- 1 eiously or ho who knew it but did it not ? Let the er determine ? Secondly. The A 'nijnirrr again excuses Mr. Tripps'* vote for the English hill because ho ‘•tried to procure time for it* discussion, so as to come to an exact understanding about the tjftet of the land ordinance submission feature.” I Pray, what idea had Mr. Trippe as to the • of the “Hubinuwioa feature” in the bill ? “as he dull of comprehension bid ho not in vestigate it ? Could he possibly understand it ? If not if there were grave doubts about it—if it like a “surrender”- -if it bote that uupres j blindly ? Is it not a safe rule to oppose any measure the effeet of which might militate against the South ? Ought Mr. Trippe to he excused for votiug against bis inclinations and in the dark , and the democrat*, who voted with him, in the Aight and according to their duty, l*c condemn ed? Again. “Thu bill was the concoction and cum promise of the .Southern Democracy, and they are responsible for it,” say a the Enquirer. Ah! what made them responsible for it ? Could not the Americans have voted against it ami defeated it, notwithstanding their affection {?)for the “South orn Democracy ?” Surely It was not expected that the South Americans would refuse vote ! agantsl a bill, because the democrat* “concoct ed” it ? This is doing us “Uouor ovaruiuuh.” This is hiving the democrats better than the South? It is sacrificing the latter to preserve j the harmony of the former. We protest against being made idols of this way. W arc not the ‘•keepers*” of the South Americans, and should not he held responsible for their acts. Lastly, the Enquirer say*, that the Southern Democracy arc the ones who passed the English bill, and not the “six or eight South Americans” (enough to kill the hill) “who reluctantly went 1 along with them to prevent them from making a more dUgrecful surrender of the j claims of the South.” What a bountiful sight! j the South Americans led, like sheep to the altar, | surrendering the South -against their will—con trary to their judgment—and all to prevent the Democrats from doing worst?! The alternative j was not presented! The South Americans had • the power in their hands. They defeated the admission of Kan sox with the pro-slavery Con stitution: they could have likewise defeated the . English bill with the laud swindle. What’ Arc South American* to send Repre- j seutntive* to Congress who have not the nerve to | exercise the right* of an enfranchised manhood: to vote against a bill if they dislike it; to oppose I u ‘disgraceful surrender’ of the South ? Ami mus j they he excused.Wause they arc in a lean minor- j ity aud not held responsible? But, say* the En gnirer, we should judge of Senator Iverson’s vote upon the Diplomatic bill by the same “tests,” that wc do Mr. Trippe’*. Precisely. Judge Iverson not uni yprotetUsd against the one clause j in the Consular and Diplomatic bill, vis: to ap- , propriate $30,000 to carry out .the President’s contract to educate the Echo's returned African*, but also voted against this clause. True, he voted t„r the hill, which embraced this .among a hundred other important section*. Not 1 s>, with Mr. Trippe. Tho English bill was voted for a* an entirely—-to strike out the land ordi- ; nance was to defeat the bill. There was but one question involved. Upon this, Mr. Trippe voted iu the affirmative. By no parity of reasoning can tho votes of Judge Iversonjind Mr. Trippe lie rc garded in the same light. But emmgh. We submit the question to our readers. If Mr. Trippe and Mr. Hill, who dislik cd tho Conference hill- -who felt It was lurren dciing the South—deserve le* eensurc for aid ing in its passage than the Congressman, who raised his voice in it* favor, believing in bis beartof hearts that he wa* conscientiously doing his duty, and that it wa* u measure that would meet the approbation of the South aud the good will of his constituents.

COLniBIS, WKUMWDAV JI NK 2*2, IMP. ItemoorntU t.utxmaterial Convention. A press ot editorial matter has prevented us trorn expressing an opinion upuu the proceedings of the late Democratic Convention un till the pres ent time. The re-uunliuation of Gov. Browu by a uiiii a //nous vote, is hailed by the Democracy of Georgia with joy aud enthusiasm. True to the noble instiucts of his nature, he has guarded the interests of the State with marked ability and economy. That he should hold the office anuther term was no more than a tribute of justice to n faithful, energetic, honest public servant. We hoist his name at our mast-head, fully assured that the people of Georgia will re-elect him, and that ho will overcome all opposition in the coming election. Seldom has a Governor won so much public confidence and gained so much positive strength during one term of office, ns has tho pres cut incumbent. We have no objection to the resolutions adop ted at the Convention. They do not, in our judgment,commit the Democracy of Georgia to ihu Icderal Administration, as our American co temporaries have woll said- After a personal compliment to Mr. Buchanan, the resolutions simply approve of his Inaugural address and an nual messages to t’ougrea* upon the ut>ject of la eery. This is nil. And surely few democrats will object to it. Nothing is said of thfc policy or acts of tho Administration, as tho Georgia Demo cracy, actuated by principles more than love of men, could uot eonsoionciously endorse of either. Still, it would have been ungenerous to pass oon deraatory resolutions, as the President stood with ns upon Lecomptnnisui, vetoed land swindling schemes, settled the question of t he right of search with credit to the country, and suppressed rebel lion in Utah. Then, wo think the Deuioc racy can go forth to victory upon this plat form. We are met by a party which enunciates no principlee. They remain dumb aiul light for tho spoils. When such is evidently the fact, there is no necessity for a breach in the Demo cratic walls. Keep the banners up aud the senti nels on the watch, and nil will be woll. Lot dis sensions, if any, he healed, let the waters of Marah cease to flow, let brotherly feeling prevail aud let the banner of the party with Constitution al principles triumph!

Ihe termer Directors were powerless, and could not. raise another dollar, either by loan or subscriptions.

Hoad. He suooeoded, even beyond expectation, and oven raised money enough to Py the debts ot the Company and push the lloud forward. It is true, that more time had been con sutned in completing it to Union Springs than was either contemplated orpromised. but we must all remember the great difficulties which had to be encountered in the wain of funds and tho ex pensive character of the work itself.

Who is to take his place, it he is not re chosen President ? Is there anyone in Columbus who is both competent and willing to undertake it ? I do not know of one.

The stronger our attachments to our institutions, the loss suspicions are we of tho attachment of oth ers. The high sounding notes of patriotism fall with equal smoothness from iho lips of the heart less demagogue, us from those of tho lover of his Country. Ambition or corruption prompts the one to manifest as much zeal for the public good us the other, until the dearest names uro made hateful aud a people often clieutod, are made to conclude that nil public men are alike, and that nohonesty dwells among politicians. In this statu of uncertainty, whom they dare-trust, tho muck patriot has the decided ad vautugo over the sincere lover of his Country.
