Breckinridge Endorses Everett. . Let no supporter of Breokinridge in ■11 the South dare ever again to whis- ner a word against the soundness, relia- Eility and patriotism of Edward Ever- ett--for Breckinridge himself has most fully, thoroughly and triumphantly en dorsed him. „ , . We have before us the speech of John C. Breckinridge, delivered m the Hall of the Kentucky House of Repre sentatives, at Frankfort, December 21st 1859—six months ago—by invitation of the Democratic Legislature of his State. After boasting of the sounduess of the Northern Democracy on the slavery question, Mr. Breckinridge adds: “There is another element at the North’ not large, but noble and true. It consists of the scattered cohorts of the old Whig party, of men like EvOrett, Choate, and their associates, whose con servatism culture and patriotism rebelled against the republican alliance. Besides these, there are many thousands in the Northern States u>ho seldom attend the polls and whose voices 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 pernioious principles that threaten its safety, and 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!” 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] with an opportunity to support so great and pure a patriot, and they are earnest in advocating the claims of the only na tional ticket. I have not yet seen a Breck inridge man or a Douglas man, who has not said that, if hie could not secure the election of liis favorite, he would prefer Bell to any other candidate. A vote was taken on the train between Cleaveland and Knoxville, and Breck inridge and Douglas together got only one more vote than Bell. The friends of Boll in Tennessee and Virginia are very sanguine in their expectations of carrying.those States. Yesterday and this forenoon I spent in "sightseeing” about Washington ci ty—saw probably about the same that thateveryjone sees at”the capital— Smithsonian Institute, Patent Office, the White House, Washington Monu ment, Ao., Ac., but I have neither dis position to-night nor room on this sheet to describe them—so good bye. M. D. Editorial Correspondence. Baltimore, Md., July 27 1860, Dear Courier :—I arrived here at 5§ o’clock this evening, having had thus far a very interesting and pleasant trip but yet devoid of exciting incidents or strange events. As the “bread and but ter question" is the one of great and all-absorbing interest to a majority of the people, I kept my eyes open to all possible chances of observation upon the growing and the recently harvested crops. After leaving Dalton, and strik- ing.on an almost exclusively grain grow ing country the indications are that there has been very little suffering from drouth. The corn all the way through to Wash, ington city looks thrifty and promises, I suppose, as large a crop as is usual from the lands in this section. The most of the lands throughout this route seem to hove a stingy soil that gives out only sparingly the - nutritious' aliments to growing corn. The Oat crop is every where large and the wheat though small in East Tennessee, is yet much larger than was feared before harvesting.— There have been fine rains recently all through this route, and to-day—from Washington here—is the first time I suf fered from dust. The entire line of railroads from Dol ton to Lynchburg, via Knoxville and Briston, are first class roads, in good condition, with obliging conductors and all the comforts that travelers could reasonably expeot. The distance be tween these points is 455 miles and we ran it in just 24 hours, making, inclu ding stoppages, nearly 19 miles on hour. It is a matter of mortification to every Georgian thatourown State Road should compare so unfavorably with these other connecting links.. With one ex ception, it is the only road I have pass ed over where ice-water was not provi ded. I know of no toad in the South on which they run so slow. The cars are not neatly kept, and there is a gen eral air of slovenliness in all its arrange ments. It seems to be managed very much as one might suppose, a mean man would do, who had rented a farm, and was only intent on making as much as possible for himself during the pe riod of his lease, and entirely negleot- ing the interests of the lessor; he does not keep up the repairs on the buildings lets the fences go down, and strains the soil to its utmost. It seems a curious fact that in passing all the way firom Rome to Lynchburg- distance of 500 miles, with the excep tion of Knoxville, one passes through no town as large as our own little oity, The only note-worthy buildings noticed ontheTenn. * Va.,R. B., is Emory A Henry College, and this is only remar* kable because of its insignificance, its very smallness. It is .* three story brick bulldihg about 150 feet long by 60 wide with no other building about it that pould'be used for college pur poses.' ' v *'Z (Ip to this timed have aaen very little political excitement. The Bell men elf ssftn to be firm and well pleased “From Morn till Noon ; from Noon till Dewy Eve, he fell.” In no Southern State were the Sece- ders more thoroughly abused, and the friends of Douglas more defiant and uncompromising than in Alabama, They professed to represent the Demo cratic party in that State, and denounc ed the Seceders as foctiorfists, too con' temptible in numbers and respectability to be worthy of consideration. But their favorite will soon be dead in Ala bama. Every mail brings us some news unfavorable to his cause. Three gen tlemen, Messrs. Clitherall, Clementsi and Hall, who wero nominated on the Douglas electoral tickot, have with drawn their mimes and announced their intention to support Breckinridge and Lane. Hon. Henry W. Hilliard who was ap pointed a delegate to Baltimore, by the Douglas State Convention, and haB been claimed hy the Douglasites, says he is in favor of Breckinridge and Lane and has been ever since their nominations. The Greensboro Beacon has hauled down the Dougins flag which had been floating at its most head, and among its reasons for so doing, says that Douglas “stands not the slightest chance of get ting the vote of Alabama.” The Montgomery Mail-snys it is be ginning to be strongly believed that no Douglas ticket will be run in that State. After the election it will be strongly believed that no Douglas ticket ought even to have been run in Georgia.— Some are of that way of thinking now. Letter firom Mr. Hardeman. A report having been put in circula tion in this county—we know not by whom—to the effect that Hon. Thomas Hardeman, our immediate Representa tive in Congress, had declared his in tention to support Breckinridge and Lane for President and Vice President, important speech, delivered by John and having been repeatedly interrogat- Hickman, in the Concert Hall, Phila- ed os to the correctness of the’ rumor, without being able to give a definite an swer, we addressed Capt. Hardeman, a note requesting him os to the truth or falsity of the report, and received the following answor:—Harris county Enterprise. Macon, July 18,1869.. , Mr. J. II. Moorefield—Dear Sir:—In your favor of the 13th, your say it is re ported in Harris county that I have de- Highly Important firom Pennsylvania —Douglas Abandoned by Forney, Hickman & Co. The anti-Lecbmpto niie Democracy of Pennsylvania, led by Forney, Hickman A Co., are showing themselves in tlieir true colors, as will be seen by the highly delphja, on Tuesday evening, the 24th inst., in which he forihally announces the abandonment of Douglas, and conies out boldly for Lincoln. Mr. Hickman declares Douglas far inferior to Breokinridge; he gives a scathing record of the Illinois Sena tor’s career, and pronounces that the only safety for the country lies in sup porting Lincoln. This is all for the better. It will liar- clared myself in favor of the nominee? row the contest to the only two issues of the Seceders at Baltimore. I know involved in it, and will strip it of ull the not upon whose authority such state- ambiguity and humbug with which it mentsare made, nor will it, I imagine, has been invested. We always predict- have muoh influence for whom I cast my vote. Since the organization of the American party, I have been its warm admirer and supporter. I have been a private in its ranks in several hard fought battles—when our enemies de nounced us os “oath-bound conspira tors and Mid-night plotters.” I have clung to my party when all was dark and discouraging—when the strong trembled and the weak-deserted—when our principles were assailed “guilty of treason to the South,” because we did not approve and applaud Cincinnati Platforms and Kansas bill. ' I shall not forsako it now, because our opponents have discovered the cor rectness of our position, and are now seeking to elbow us from the platform we long since erected,and with cool com posure call upon us, the builders, to join those who have just discovered the beauty of its propotions and the strength of its structure. _ For six years we have seen our principles en dorsed by the Supreme Court of the na tion, and even our enemies now approve and sustain them. I admire the con science stricken penitent—I love to see him sit upon the penitential stool and weep over his past errors—but I dislike to see him, before the tour is dry upon his cheek, lecture fathers in Israel, and persuade them that he is more devot ed and zealous than they. I admire, also, political converts, yet I must be excused for doubting tho “convincing conversion” of those who, ono month extol the National Democracy, and do- sire the Cincinnati Platform, pure and undefiled, and the next, denounce their Northern brethren, and disrupt their party associations because tho Cincin nati platform i* tendered them by “the only party that can save the country.” including the “forty-four faithful.” No sir, I have not forsaken my party friends, and 1 am gratified to see every positions assumed in iny ialo canvass n w endorsed by feme who denounced them as abstractions. Doing rigby^ten, endorsed now, I shall continue hr tho faith, and give my cordial support to to the only National candidates now be fore tile people for the suffrages—I mean Bell and Everett. Respectfully. Yours, T. Hardeman, Jr. ed'tliat the anti-Lecompton Democracy would come to this. We knew that Forney, having received his office as Clerk of the House from tho Republi cans, would give them his support, furtively, if not openly ; but Hickman is an honest, outspoken man, and he comes out in his speech frankly and above board for anti-slavery and the Black Republican candidate. By thuB abandoning Douglas, and going bodily into the Republican camp, the anti-Le compton Democrats have put. the stamp upon the true issues of the Presidential battle. With them it is evident that Douglas is to be no longer recognized as a representative of either issue. Oppo sition to Breckinridge and the Demo cratic par*y, and support to Lincoln and the Black Republicans, is tho buttle cry they have adopted. Douglas must follow them, or be counted out—drop ped, abandoned by his quondam friends —N, Y. Herald. NEGROES FOR SALE AT AUCTION.

They are all for Douglas.— Charleston Courier. ■ Politics in Floyd. A correspondent, writing to the Au gusta True Democrat from this place, says the Douglasites are endeavoring to cre ate the impression that there is a res pectable Douglas party In Floyd county, ‘but it is like pouring water on a duck’s back, where any one is posted.” He says, further, that Breokinridge .will gain from the Opposition as many as will go over to Douglas. If that, is so> Douglas will be scarqgly known in Floyd, for there are only three Opposition .men in the oounly that we have heard of, who intend supporting Breokinridge.— Bell will get more from the Democracy, than he.will lose from the Opposition. Sold out to the Seceders.—Tho Sump ter Republican says the South- Western News, published at Americus, Ga., which bad run up the Douglas flag, has been disposed of to the Breokinridge party, and will now support that candidate. This reduces the Douglas papers in Georgia to four. "'N»W York, July 26. — Application his been made by Levi S. Chatfield for au injunction against tho payment of bills for the Japanese reoeptioa, on the ground of fraud. The Returning Africans. The second vessel left Key West on the 4th instant, with a load ot' Afri cans returning to their native land. A correspondent of the Charleston Courier snys: Tho sceno witnessed on tho Africans taking their departure was truly heart rending. They logged upon their knees, threw themselves down, and by signs, in every possible way coinmunica- tep their repugnance to going back.— Such as had picked up a. few English words spoke for themselves, and the rest, asking tho physician and tho Mar- shul to allow therr to remain, and lot the citizens do what they wished with them. No man could liavo witnessed the departure without feeling that it was a great wrong and.an act of inhu manity in sending them back to tlieir own country. And the negroes bad the intelligence to comprehena it. It was also stated positively that two, at least, of’the negroes who had been cap tured on the brig Echo and returned, were among the number brought into Key West. There is a strange talk of a party from Alabama, Louisiana, Florida und Cuba making an attempt to capture these ne groes from the Colonization ships. I fancy it is all rumor. I have since learned that one of the sergeants at the barucoon was offered $5U0 to seleot a guard fora certain night; a corporal was offered $1000 to permit himself to bo tied,and otherlarge bribos were offered and failed ; so the adven turers leftnnd nothing has been heard of them since. Senator Toombs on Bell. In his speeoh at Warrenton, on the 24th inst., Senator Toombs is repotted to have endorsed Mr. Bell’s sound ness on the slavery question most emphatically, declaring Mr. Bell to be "as sound as himself.”—Savannah Repub lican. The Republican has been misinformed. He said Mr. Bell was “a man of ability —but he know no man whose princi ples were more fatal.”—Augueta D\s- patch.:.., Ithaanatbeen many months since Mr. Toon&o thought the Dispatch very bad authority as to what he said in his speeches. | |From Alabama.—An esteemed corres pondent writing us from Florence, Ala., on tlie 24th inst., closes his letter with the following acceptable, and we liavo no doubt perfectly reliable, information: Memphis Enquirer. “Our cause is most cheering in its prospects, in this State. Letters from South Alabama inform mo that the en thusiasm for Boll and Everett is not less tlian.that of 1840; and they confident ly believe that they, will carry the State. “Douglas is certainly strongest in North Alabama, and his friends will never yield. Several counties, howev er, will go for Bell and Everett in this part of the State; and they will certain ly lead in the South. The Breckinridge men say that Bell will beat Douglas, in the Stale; and the Douglas men say that Bell will beat Breckinridge, if their testimony: is to be believed, (and in this instunco I think it is) the State will certainly go for Bell and Everett. ‘ An Extraordinary Fact.—Tho Mont gomery Post says that for twenty-five yeurs—since the days of Gen. Jackson —the Democracy have had but one slave-holding candidate for the Presi dency—James K. Polk. This ’fact is extraordinary for a party that pretends to be the best Southern party, and as sumes to have in its special keeping the honor, aud iuterests and safety of tho South. Since 1840, the year when the Whig party was formed, the Whig, and Amer ican, and Constitutional Union parties, have lmd three large slaveholders fof their Presidential candidates—Clay, Taylor, Bell. And since that year, of tho six candidates they have run for the Presidency, five have been South ern-born men—Harrison, Clay, Taylor Scott, Bell.
