Edward Everett of Blass.
Qreclunridge Endorses Everett,
let no supporter of Breckinridge in
' the South dare ever again to whis-
jea word against the soundness, reliv
ility and patriotism of Edward Ever-
: ett—for Breckinridge himself has most
; fully, thoroughly and triumphantly en'
indorsed him.
A lew Thoughts Suggested by the
Death of Joseph Gales.
Our exchanges on Monday announc
ed the death of Joseph Gales, the senior
partner of the proprietors of the Nation-
We have before us the speech of al Intelligencer. He died on the 21st,
John C. Breckinridge, delivered in the
' Hall of the Kentucky House of Repre
sentatives, at Frankfort, December 21st
1859—six months ago—by invitation of
lie Democratio Legislature of his State.
After boasting of the sounduess of the
1 -Northern Democracy on the slavery
(question, Mr. Breckinridge adds:
“There is another element at the
1 1 North’ not large, but noble and true. It
- consists of the scattered cohorts of the
. old Whig parly, of men like Everett,
Choate, and their associates, whose con-
m culture and patriotism rebelled
the republican alliance. Besides
these, there are many thousands in the
Northern States who seldom attend the polls
and whose voioes have not been heard
amidst the clamors that surround them.
To all these let us appeal; let us sol
emnly demand a general revolt of the
virtue and loyalty of the country
against the pernicious principles that
threaten its safety, ana when all the
forces are arrayed in their proper ranks
we shall be able to see what remains to
hope or fear.”
There are Breckinridge’s own words,
testifying that Everett is a “noble and
true” patriot, whose “conservatism,
culture and patriotism rebelled against
the Republican alliance 1" And yet
some of Breckinridge’s whipper-snap
per, simpletonian supporters in _ the
South, are swearing that Everett is an
Abolitionist, unworthy of the counte
nance and support of Southern men 1
Keep Breckinridge’s endorsement of
Everett before the people.—Rich. Whig.
[jy24tw&wlm]
buggery of that concern has at last
come to light, and* thousands of true
men who were decieved by it, will re
turn to their friends and support the
man who told them six years ago the
very thing which they are now being
convinced of by bitter experience. If
the States we have mentioned go for
Bell, they will give him 91 electoral
votes, which will place him next to
Lincoln on the list. We see no reason
why the friends of Bell should be dis
couraged, and if the enemies of Doug
las and Lincoln wish to defeat them,
the surest way to do it is to vote for
Bell.
The Prospects of Boll and Everett
in the South.
The New York Herald, a Democratic
paper, a defender of the administration
and a supporter of Breckinridge and
Lane, indulges in a little speculation
upon the strength of our candidates in
the Southern States which appear so
reasonable, that we give a few of the
facts to our readers and leave them to
draw the conclusions.
In Virginia Governor Letoher’s ma
jority was 5,581. If Douglas gets more
than this small number, Bell will carry
the State, and it is said Letcher himself
is for Douglas.
In Kentucky the Democratic major
ity in the last Gubernatorial election
was 9,182. There can scarcely be a
doubt that Douglas will get over ten
thousand votes in Kentucky, which
will give that State to Bell.
In North Carolina the Democratio
Governor was elected by 16,257; but in
the election to come off in August,
Pool, the Opposition candidate, will re
duce this number very considerably,
and Douglas will carry more than the
balance, and North Carolina will be
sure for Bell.
In Tennessee the Demooratio major
ity was 8,000. This is Bell’s home, and
the Douglas men are making a desper
ate fight. Tennessee may be set down
for Bell.
Delaware out of a vote of a little
more than 15,000 gave the Democracy
only 1,416 majority. With Douglas to
draw off votes from this, Delaware will
give a plurality to Bell.
Maryland in the last election gave
the Opposition a majority of 8,459. A
divided Democracy is not likely to do
better than when united.
In Texas the Opposition under the
lead of Sam Houston beat the Democ
racy 8,670. Old Sam is now for Boll,
and the Democracy fighting each
other. ■' r i
Out of a vote of 40,021 in Louisiana,
the Democracy obtained a majority of I
8,847. But Soule and Miles Taylor are]
moving heaven and earth tor Douglas,
and will leave it an easy matter foi
Bell and Everett to carry the State.
In Florida the vote polled at the Iasi
election was 8,344, and a Demooratii
majority of1,694. If Douglas gets on>
fourth of the vote of the State, Bell wf
■ get a plurality.
The Democratio candidate for Gov<
nor in Missouri was elected by amqjori|
ty of 344 only.'- The question is,
Breckinridge get more than this,
think he will get a very much ‘
vote and give the State to Bell,.
In Alabama the last Demooratio
Jority was 20,000; but the friends
Douglas are as sanguine ot carrjin,
that State as the friends of Breckin
ridge, and unless one party is greatl;
deceived Bell will astonish them
taking tint doctoral vote from both.
In all these Slates a plurality only
required, and it must be
too thatthe Democraoy in the last
dections had the prestige of the Kan-
i . Bill to help.- them on. The hum*
in the seventy fifth year of hisage, and
had been for fifty-three years connected*
with that paper. He was highly es
teemed by those who knew him person
ally, and had inspired the confidence
and admiration of those who knew him
as he exhibited his integrity of charac
ter and his courteousness of manner,
through the columns of the Intelligen
cer. He was a veteran editor worthy
of emulation, and the “Intelligencer”
an excellent paper fit to be a model.—
There was a dignity, a truthfulness and
a decorum which characterized its edi
torials and commanded the respect of
its political opponents. Notevenwhen
party rancour reached its highest pitch,
did it indulge in abusive epithets, or
degrade itself or its profession by retail
ing calumny and falsehood.
How different with political journals
generally. We hear much about
the dignity of the press, and n
one half the papers in the country are
busily engaged proving the other half
to be utterly devoid of principle, of
honesty and of truth. And they
their turn are paying them back in
their own coin. As the excitement of
the campaign increases the epithets us
ed grow more bitter and frequent.—
Editors use expressions in their papers
in speaking of each other, whioh they
would scorn to utter in social conversa
tion. Why is this ? Abuse is not argu
ment; vituperation does not establish
the truth. When a man descends to
the use of either in debate, his hearers
immediately conclude that he is wrong,
and knowing it, is afraid to rest- his
cause upon fair argument.
Many of the unpleasant and unfortu
nate incidents which always proceed
from heated political discussions would
be avoided if the press of the country
would abstain from approbrious and
offensive language, which serves no good
purpose and only degrades the paper in
which it is found and detracts from the
dignity and influence of the profession.
Virginia Domocrats Going for Bell.
The last Rockingham, Va„ Register
contains a long communication from
Charles Giattan, Esq., who was one of
the delegates of Rockingham in the
Legislature, from which we take the
following significant extract:
Now, sirs, our object is to beat the
Republicans, and for one I am willing
to see that done by Bell. Of course I
should prefer a Democrat, but even
supposing the worst phase the case can
assume, we will have a Southern man
infinitely preferable to Lincoln, and in
all probability a Democrat. How is it
to bo authoritatively understood who
that strong man is without a general
consultation ? It surely can do no
harm, it is open to every element of
good. I am very decidedly opposed to
that double tioket arrangement which
has been spoken of. I sincerely believe
it will lose us the .State. Already I see
many of the grey-headed fathers of the
Democracy going off because they can
not remain m a house divided ngainst
itself, and against which the judgment
of heaven has been pronounced.”
Tiiet Give it Up!—Wo see by the
report in the Review, published at

A Close Vote. .
The Lynchburg Republican (Breckin
ridge paper) says that a vote was taken
in the cars on the South-side Railroad
a few days ago os to the preference of
the passengers tor the difierent candi
dates .for the Presidency, with the fol
lowing result Breckinridge and Lane
15, Bell and Everett 15, Douglas and
Johnson 15. The cars contained 45
male adults, and it is a little remarka
ble, politically, they should have been
so equally divided. A good merriment
was occasioned by a strong minded wo
man in the coach, who wished to cast
her vote for Douglas, but she was in
formed by the gentlemen that they
were unanimously opposed to “Wo
man’s Righto,” as far at least as voting
was concerned. The lady crew rather
obstreperous,* and declared that she
could whip any two-legged male biped
in that ere boat; but, as none of them
seemed disposed to accept her chal
lenge for a fist and skull |exhibition,
she gradually subsided, but low, occa
sionally mutterings gave token of the
inward storm that raged in her breast
at the insult, to which she hod been
subjected.
Distinguished Runaways.
A negro belonging to Senator Toombs
emigrated Northwardly a short time
since. Having been left in Washington
City after the adjoumment of Congress
to bring on his master’s horses, he very
honestly shipped the horses South, but
he himself took the other end of the
road and is now probably in a free
State.
One of Hon. A. H. Stephens’ servants
was committed to jail last week in this
yty* having robbed his master of some
5500. Ho “fell among thieves” of his
own color down here, who robbed him
of some $200, but the money has been
all, or nearly, all recovered. It is sup
posed from circumstances that he was
making preparations to join Mr,
Toombs’ servant at the North but the
fascinations of Augusta interfered
bis progress and led to his arrest.
These boys were part of the plunder
stolen by the Abolitionist Chappell in
Washington City some years since—an
occurrence which caused some commo
tion at the time. Chappel was caught
and put in jail, but we have forgotten
what finally became of him—the ne
groes returned to their masters and
were much trusted and kindly treated
by them. We shall expect to hear of
ot Mr. Toombs’ boy on the stump for
Abe Lincoln, os he is a smart fellow and
blessed with the “gift of tho gab.”

A Sensible Negro.—We were much
amused on the cars, last Saturday, at a
reply-made by a very intelligent negro
woman, to n question propounded to
her by a gentleman of our acquain
tance. She .having only the pormit
and pass, which ave usual, to join her
mistress, at Green Brier Springs, Vir
ginia. Tile question was, if she were
not afraid that some Abolitionist would
persuade her to desert, her mistress,
and go to a free Stale.
"I here’s no danger of that,” was the
reply, “I'd liefer bo an independent
slave any time, than one of theuvstuck-
up free chirkios, to he kicked and cuffed
about, with nobody lo take up for
me.”
Thore was, os we thought, a moral in
that answer, which the Urceloys and
the Sumners of the North mi,ht read
as they run.—Oxford (Miss.) Intelligen
cer.
Dreadful affair at Lake Borgnc.
. A terrible affair occurred at Proclor-
villo, Luke Borgno, on .Saturday after
noon, the main facts only of which have
yet reached town. It appears that a
Chinaman went into a coffee house with
a party of fifteen to drink, and only
put down twenty-five cents. They went
out, and another Chinaman went in and
claimed a drink, but the barkeeper, a
Spaniard, refused to give it to him.—
The Chinaman slapped him in the face,
and the Spaniard threw a tumbler at
him. A countryman of the barkeep
er’s wont in to his assistance, whereup
on tho Chinaman stabbed him. lie
then rushed out and stabbed another
Spaniard.on tho gallery, who attempted
to stop him. He then ran for the wharf
and was pursued by another Spaniard,
and got shot in severul places. The
Celestial desperado leaped into the
lake to swim to a boat, but before he
readied one he was shot dead. The
two men stabbed in the coffee house ex
pired shortly after. Fellerd was brought
up to town , but died in the Charity
Hospital at 7 o’clock yesterday mor
ning. He was stubbed in several pla-
cm. and the flesh was literally hewed
ott from the bone on the right arm, be
tween tlie elbow and shoulder. lie
was a member of tho Spanish Benevo
lent Association.—New Orleans Bulle
tin.
The ' Ei.eim.iant “Columbus.”—Some
few months since, wo mentioned that a
hearing was had in the Supreme Court
upon a suit brought against the town
of Adams by the administrator of the
estate of James Raymond, to recovtr
$25,000, the alleged value of the ele
phant “Columbus,” which received in
juries from which lie died, by the brea
king of a bridgo at South Adams. The
question submitted at the Court was
whether tho plaintiff could recover, ev
en if the facts were as alleged. The
defendants claimed that they were not
liable, and that there was no obligation
upon them to maintain roads and brid
ges safe and convenient for the driving
of elephants over them for exhibition,
but.that if the plaintiff chose to use
their roads and bridges for that purpose
he did it at his own risk. The Court
have decidod for the plaintiff.—Boston
Journal.
A Fraud.—The Breckinridge papers
in this State continue to parade in
their columns the proceedings of a
little knot of fire-eating Know Noth
ings in and about Montgomery, who
have endorsed Breckinridge, as the
action of the Opposition party of Ala
bama. This is a bald imposture, as we
have already taken oocasion to show.—
The regulat Opposition convention met
in Selma, and with the greatest enthu
siasm endorsed the nomination of Boll
and Everett—Sav. Rep,
Definition*.
The following. definitions are not
found in the abridged dictionaries gen
erally in use: .
Intervention, for Congress, to deoide
that negroes shall not exist in certain
sections of the Union. The passage of
tho Missouri Compromise was an ex
ample of it.
Nbn-interuen/ion,permission by the gov
ernment to any and every territory
when it forms a constitution preparato
ry to being received into the Union as a
State,' to decide on the subject of
slavery for itself ; that is Congress shall
not require of.Bueh territory a constitu
tion protecting, nor prohibiting slavery,
but leave the subject to the decision of
the voters of the territory themselves.
Smatter Sovereignty, a power claimed*
by the first two or three wild adventur
ers who get into a territory to decide
against the. right of slaveholders who
may come in after them to hold their
slaves os property in the territory. If
they decide against the institution of
salvery, their’decision is*sutt;iined. If
they decide in favor of slavery, ns was
the the case recently in New Mexico,
a Black Republican Congnss ot onne
declares their act a nullity..
Protection, is the shield which the
General Government as the agent of
the several States, throws around every
citizen, defending him in his right to
hold property in the common territory
untill their territory becomes a sover
eign State by being formally admitted
into the confederacy with a republican
constitution of its own.
. Protection to property is not incon
sistent with the permission to form h
constitution, at the proper time, by tho
voters of that territory, either protect
ing or prohibiting slavery; only that
no law can be passed destroying tho
right of individual property.
Judge Douglas as a Slaveholder.—It
has often been asserted that Judge
Douglas, through his first wife, became
the proprietor of. a slave plantation,
with slaves upon it. The real facts are
related by his friend and biographer, J.
W. Sheahan, Esq., who lias recently
published a life of Douglas. Mr. Snea-
iian.says in his book that on the 6th of
April, 1847, Judge Douglas was married
to Miss Martha Denny Martin, daugh
ter of Col. Robert Murtin, of Rocking
ham county, North Carolinn. That on
the day. after his marriiige, Col. Martin,
placed in the hands of his new son-in-
law a deed of certain plantations, inclu
ding the slaves upon them, in the Stale
of Mississippi, and that Judge Douglas
declined to accept tho gift; that Colonel
Martin died the following yeur leaving
these plantations to Mrs. Douglas and
her surviving children, with the wish
expressed in his will that tho slaves
should reqtain in the fumily. Those
slaves are now the property of the
children of Judge Douglas by his first
wife.
Cotton Killed by Heated Air.—We
learn that during the gale on Thursday
last, Judge Pace s plantation was visit
ed by a heated air, known in tropical
climates as “Simoon,” which isoftende
structive to animal, as well os vegetable
life, Tho passage was confined to a
scope of about one hundred yards in
vriath, killing the cotton on prominent
points where it touched tho ground.
The cotton presents the uppearanco of
having been scorched with fire, the
leaves being perfectly dry in thirty min
utes after tho storm. This is rather a
singular phenomena for this latitude,
and doubtless is the first instance on ro-
cord, of a.Simoon wind passing through
Middle Georgia. We have heard of
severul plantations where cotton was
kilted in the same storm.—Covington
Times 21st.
gg^The Republicans of tlie Thir
teenth District of Ouio, have re-nomi
nated John Sherman for Congress by
acclamation.
