To nomin ite delegates to the Na tional Democratic Convention at Charleston, will assemble at Mill edgevil|e on the 2d jut otr Maaui, next lly order of ihe Executive Committee. Sour il*-rL Martrs Ur (wMmitM The Montgomery Confederation taken u* to task, for yielding to Col. Stanford the feuding position in foe xnti-Stot* Aid uauipaign of Dfo7,. in Alabama, and not mentioning tbs name of *lha A. Winston, in eonne* tion herewith. Tbe nrtioU of the Confederation itself shows that Qmt. Winston’s ovnuot lion with the auljef t, wm m for Wk an 1858**56 ; nod really fronted the iu end ex f ftetnont of Iwhtti Or#l.

Winston, by foo multitude of his on various subjects, had created rm ftnpswafoa that his opposition, which he renflnofl to ground* of paltry, as much the result ofpersohal am bition and obstinacy ns of any real and fixed judgment against flute uid. lint we wads no till union lo ihe period of li*ie in whteh Gov Winston Mud. “We would not rob** Aim “of any laurel* which he legitimately won In his opposition to fftate Aid In Ahibutrm” from 1 ana to JS36. That wan not the time to which otr argument referred, WespekoOl Mfoff and surely, if our worthy rtiftsmporary of M*’ yfHMfg bed been familiar with the history of poll ties in Alabama, in the Spring he would not refuse “the championship'* of that war to W*. V. Bevronn. The Senior Editor of the C’opfflfliirttlun bad jurt returned to the United Hi aloe fromjjelgituix, and did net read the Tr ns h'nlom, whi<*b waetheu Col. Samfurd's nrgnn. He has certainly forgot the part the A h , se#*rto<flt so the coutest, tta the friend nod supporter es Bam fowl. Whatever errors in parly Uatles 001.

Wo hats already expressed our hearty eonoiurroitoe in this *ugge- Mid hope It may prevail. This is tnrt tk* tim* to ostracise num for their Utvotivn t fitunlh •r* Jiiyhtt / Tho Ctiti ori'eu. t amphtil and Ncfirher We earnestly invite the attention ol our rid ers to this document, to be found in another col umn. It embodies nil that need be said in find!* catkin of the eourso of the filefruliv* Committee, and in oeodomnation of tho unfair and illegiti mate action, la reference to the Charleston Con vention, recently taken by a portion of the Ik’ui uoratic wetubert of the LegialaUmi. Tn the sum© number of the /Wera/ Vnivn, from which this card I* taken, we find a report of the notion of the Democratic members of tho Legislature in Itftft; when delegates were appointed to the Cipoiuuatl Convention. Tkia redord ia brought forward, we presume, as a precedent to justify tho recent action of our Deinocrutia Legislators. A Lure Inspection of tile facta will expose tho rottenness of tbo sap port. The only point of agreement is, that both Convent jobs were c plied by the Democratic uictn bersoftbe Legislature. It U iu rerpect to poluU in whiab they differ that we think the Lkunocracy of the State ia called upon to disregard what baa been done, and to aet for itself. “Tn 13*5, on ob jection was made t< the lugieUii.ru luwvaiucut.--- Til* call was acquiesced in Wythe party press and people throughout the State. In l&>9, juior to the eall of the Convention, a solemn and earnest protest was uttered by an unanimous Demon ratio prem against It. fn iHftft, /**fy-#6rdays notice woe given to the people in which to mCrt In pri mary ossomblios, appoint and instruct delegator. Iu ldW, a notice of tijfioru days was given. Tb* facts alone, justify the Democracy in repudiating the action of a portion of their Logi.daturs. fu addition, however, we have the call of lb Exec utive Committee, The appointed agent vs the party for this twain©**, asking the people to re float calmly upon the perturbed and threatening condition of affairs, and send delogntel to Mil iodgeville, In March next, ehurgei with the duty of representing tbetr opinions in respect thereto. This suita the people best and tb*jr will abide by ti Avotbkr BnOw?t Ukmimsi. i:vck. - Dpc of tho jail guard, a worthy gentleman of Charlestown, asked of Capt Brown bis Holograph, lie ex pressed tho kindest feeling for hiu}, md sold jio would giro H upon this oonsideraUuii. ihat ho should not make a spec'illation out of it.

If now, to-day, yo eontrol forty-firo per cent, of tbe wealth of the Republic, with * few !*d iug elements, with a sparse population—an illiffii table territory, what our future destiny rosy be. we cannot predict. That it Will boa glorious >n, we cannot doubt. The silly attitude of Northern fanaticism, evinced in their rhetorical denuttQlnilff&s and puny miariles of vituperative slang and billingsgate upon the stomp and in *.ur legislative balls, are bnt proofs of the old adage —“corses, like chickens, always come home to roost,’’ Even now foe spirit of the deluded and insane Brown, the tool of the designing deroa- U n>wifta* w their r..rei.n cjs, and smitiing the monsters with horrid vimns of tnni.ler, •■aj ins. and civil strife. One has be come a maniac—other* will soon follow, until tbe whole cr4w reap the “whirlwind.” As it iv, we have no soars for vur future. The South lives upon her own reeources—and the etabltbruem of a thorough system of manu facturing to eousnme our staple, thus avoiding the onerous and oppressive indirect taxetion of th- North, will place us on a footing with owr rivals for fuimtrdnl precedence, uni elevate u to the memt of great nas? -the producer# and con- sumers of the most Important intereet# in the country—with their profits gleaned by ourselves. The time is approaching for the North to open her stupid sye-ball*. and see facts that will open their still more stupid minds to the troths of tbs ameliorating results of our peculiar institution in t# action upon the degraded African. Iron bands, uniting North and South, will, in a few years, acquaint those ignorant men of the North m their visits to the happy fields of the South, of the true genius of slave labor: reason will re sums her *whv, and when the race of madmen of the North been annihilated hy their own folitical petards, the masses will shout at the annere of tolerance, nnfurled upon the heights of Bunker Hill by the slav#.bolder of Tennessee and Kentucky ; the Southern lady, with her well fed, warmly-clad nurse, will walk the streets of the Northern cities unmolested and undisturbed. This will he the grand finale of the •‘irrepreesible” eentiet—i. e. If the South remain firm and uai ted. ft must be a position demanded by tlie pre sent exigences. Every stalk of cotton—every shrub that glisten with foe rioe of the Carotins?, and every cane that grows with its load of swebt ness, are so many tongues to tell the North of their folly, and prove tho potency of Southern principles and Southern wealth.
