la not Douglas a Revolutionist!
In addition to the unparalleled dem*
agoguism of Stephen A. Douglas and
his political 'heresies, that, if carried
out, will be ruinous to the South, He is a
revolutionist and by his opposition to
the Dred Scott decision, and his. efforts
to annul it, he is striking- at the very
' vitals of our general government i
his suocess will be the death knell of
' freedom and the inauguration of anar
chy and confusion.
. The great and good men,who laid thO
foundation of our glorious system of
free government, wisely provided such
metes and bounds to the direot expres
sion Of the popular will, as, in their
good judgment, would prevent any
•popular caprice or sudden ebulitiori of
“ publio opinion from subverting the
government or disturbing the well
poised parts of the system.
,i The more effectually for carrying out
their plan they made three distinct
branches to the system of Govern
ment adppted-*-the Legislative, the Ju
dicial and the Executive—and provided
for their establishment and continuance
in such a way. as to ulake them as inde
pendent as possible of eac& other.—
Congress was constituted the Legisla
tive branoh of the government, and
this Was to bo composed of direot rep
resentatives elected by the people every
two years, and the Senate elected by
the State Legislatures every six years, os
a co-ordinate branch. The Executive
Department was plaoed in the hands of
a President to be elscted, like neither
branch of Congress, but by electors
ohosen for that purpose; mid it should
be borne in mind that the idea that the
President should be nominated' by the
people or by their direot delegates. as
sembled for that purpose, never occur
red until after over half,a century from
the inauguration of our government—
and under the original idea the people
would not, necessarily, know who were
candidates for the-Presidenoy but would
discharge their dtity if they chose good
men and true patiiots for theirEleotors.
The Judicial department was vested in
a Supreme Court, the Judges of which
they were to hold their office during
life or good behavior, thus putting:
them, so far as possible, out of the 1
reach of the popular errors into which
the masses, in- times of great excite
ment, might be expooted to be 1M.
The Supreme Court is the highest
tribunalinthe Government,its decis
ions are necessarily final, add all; good
citixena should cheerfully acquiesce in
than. . J
Now hi opposing the derision of the
Supreme Court in tiie Dred Soott ease,
is not Mr. Douglas a Revolutionist ? By
his efforts to convinoe the people that
that derision is wrohg is he not scatter
ing the seedB of anarchy broad-cost
through.the land? As soon the people
generally have lost confidence in the
integrity and wisdom of that Court, its
power for goodwill be essentially lost.—
.When there is ho adequate power whose
adjudications are considered final and
•unavoidably binding upon all parties, to
deride legal questions and to * cohstrue
the Constitution—then is the' founda
tion of our government destroyed and
the beautiful Temple of Liberty will
soon.totternpon its base, and With an
earthquaking crash, fall amidst the ones
- and groans of agonizing millions. :
Repudiating Douglas.
The following Democratic papers of
Georgia,says the Macon Citizen,have re
pudiated Stephen A, Douglas; as the
nominee of the Charleston '.Conven
tion : • .
Savannah Nows and "Express. - ~
Cartersville Express. -
Federal Union, Milledgoville.
The Times, Columbus.
The Patriot, Albany. •
Reporter, CutHbert.
Intelligencer and" Confederacy At
lanta.
Banner, Athens.
Statesman, Mqjietta.
And we believe * every other , Demo
cratic! organ' of Georgia, except the
Telegraph, of Macon, add, and the Con
stitutionalist of Augdstal And yet,
should Douglas be the nominee, as is
y probably, how many of >hese
repudiators will stick to their , declara
tions? We shall see. In the mean
time wo put npon guard what the Sa
vannah News has said in reference to
the Georgia Democracy:
- Georgia Repudiates Douglas.—
Whether "the South will bolt at Char-
leston if - Douglas is nominated” re
mains to be seen, but of one thing we
feel very confident, and that is that
thousands of true Democrats in Geor
gia will bolt tho nomination m the
Convention if Douglas is jhe nominee.
No argument of expediency, nor even
apprehension of a Black Republican
triumph, can induce the Democrats of
Georgia to endorse Douglas’ squatter
sovereignty heresy, whioh, in its practi
cal effeots would be as fatal to the rights
of the South - in the Territories as any
dootrine preached by Seward himself.
These Southern journals who have in
terpreted the action of the late Conven
tion at Milledgoville, in sending dele
gates to Charleston uninstructed, as fa
voring the nomination of Douglas, have
done injustice to the Convention and to
the Democracy of Georgia.
Mr. Crittenden's Declination.—At
the festival in Alexandria, on the 12th
inst., the birth-day anniversary of the
immortal Clay, Mr. Crittenden took oc
casion to announce his declination in
advance, of the Presidential candidaoy,
in the following felioitous terms. We
copy from she National Intelligenoer:
“Mr. Crittenden then disclaimed all
idea and all wish for the Presidency,
signifying his wish to retire and rest
after a long period of publio service.—
He did not underrate the station, what
ever he might think of some men who
had bald it. He had no hope he could
have it if he wonted it, and does not
want it if he could have it. He said
this out of no mook modesty; he had
always said it. For himself, he had
served out his time, and it was time to
retire. Mr.-Clay, however, was a man
fit for the Presidency and he was long
anxious to see him President. All we
want now, is a proper sort of Chief
Magistrate. Not a man of vacillation,
but a man of strong and good heart,
who could sit here joyously among his'
fellow citizens to-night, ana to-morrow
go with firm and iron hand and make a
strict execution of his duty, and a man
who could hot do that should give place
to a stouter and bettor man.
“It was Jackson’s 'force of character
that gave him his popularity. A proper
President must have physical as well
as moral courage ; so os to meet a man
who should come from the North or the
South with threats upon his tongue and
say to him, “Sir, I am President.” A
man who has not the heart to do this is
not fit for the place. If the least frac
ture or. crevice be in him his weakness
will be sure to be found out. His ad
ministration will be made to bend.-
But, on the other hand, if he be brave,
and firm, and honest, the Union will be
safe. I am, said Mr. Crittenden, no
candidate for the Presidency.”
But while we thus part from Mr.
Crittenden,^ he has left behind us a por
trait of just such a President as*the
country needs at this juncture.

In the bread the heat destroys the

the beer itself, and should not be

We have heard of several who have
been very much pleased with the use of
the California yeast, as It is called, but
from the articles in the papers alluded
to, have thrown it aside. We think
there is no good cause for such a course.
If persons have taken the yeast into
the system,and 1 have been injured by it,
there should be no wonder, as common
yeast, we do not imagine, would be a
healthy article of diet, but there is no
call for such a course, in employing it in
any of its useful applications. Yeast
cells taken into a healthy stomach
would undergo immediate enange; and
furthermore, their action as yeast cells
would produce no fatal results or any
chemical effects they are known to
produce. Facts are wanted to prove
the injurious action of tfijs material.
Very respectfully,

East Ala. Male College, Auburn, April
12th, 1860.
What are thbt going to do about
it?—It seems, according to a private let
ter from Cassius M. Clay, published in
the Post of lost evening, that be is
again in hot water in Kentucky. To us
it seems strange that he has been so
long permitted to pollute the soil of
Kentucky witn his negro equality doc
trines. No man has aright to live in
any society whose principles are de
structive of the pence ana good order
of thatsooiety. Now, it is evident to
every one, that anti-slavery principles
are subversive of good order in a com
munity where “slavery" exists, and
hence, Cassius M. Clay is an enemy .to
the domestic tranquility of Kentucky,
and ought long ago to have been expel
led from the State. The Post says, if
he is attacked he “Will not be allowed to
stand or fall alone.” This is rather om
inous, and we are a little curious to
know what the abolitionists propose to
do about it. If Clay be compelled to
leave Kentuoky do they intend to take
up arms in his behalf? “The violence”
says the Post, “that shall strike down so
magnanimous a defender of justice and
freedom will inevitably pro /oke a fear
ful recompense.” The Tribune says:
“The attempt to expel Mr. Clay from
Kentuoky has been tried before, but
only to recoil on the heads of its au
thors. The hour when Cassius M. Clay
is exiled from his native State will be a
sad one for Kentuoky. From the Free
States of the North and the Slave States
of the South, thousands of his ardent
friends will arise in his defense, and his ex
patriation will cause the name of Ken
tucky to become a hissing and a by
word throughout the land. But w"e
hope for better things from the great
State of Kentuoky. It cannot be that
the land of Clay, can be so utterly be
sotted .a*- to allow mob law to rule
' ughout her borders.”
_ ow, it seems to us that Mr. Clay’s
presence in Kentuoky is solely a ques
tion for the citizens of Kentucky, and
one which is just none of our business.
If any society or neighborhood think a
man’s politioal, religious or moral teach
ing prejudicial to its security, we sup
pose they have the common right of
self-defense, - and may invite him to
leave for a place where he may find
more oongenial companions. . If he
wants more than one wife, he oan go to
Utah, and if he preaches to negroes
equal rights with white men, let him go
to Massachusetts. This may be hard
and cruel, but we don’t happen to see
it.—N. Y. Day Book.
Projected Re-Union or the Metho
dist Church.—We observe, says the Sa
vannah Republican, that the question
of a re-union of the Methodist Episco
pal Churoh, North and South, is begiu-
ning to engage the serious attention of
the press of that denomination in the
border States. Several strong articles
have appeared in behalf of the move
ment, and there is some prospeot of its
g thoroughly inaugurated at an ear-
The year 1860 being the cen-
tennary anniversary of Methodism in
the UmtedStates, it is proposed to sig
nalize it by a general shaking of hands,
an amnesty for all past differences, and
a complete restoration of fellowship and
fraternal regard.
