fStMUMlg ®mwM, motssBe &&* M. DWINELL, Editor & Proprietor. GEO. T. STOVALL, Associate Editor Tuesday Morning, August 7,1800. FOR PRESIDENT. JOHN BELL of Tennessee, FOR VICE-PRESIDENT. Edward Everett of Mass, Breckinridge Endorses Everett Let no .supporter of Breckinridge in all the South dare ever again to whis per a word against the soundness, relia bility and patriotism of Edward Ever ett—for Breckinridge himself has most fully, thoroughly and triumphantly en dorsed him. Wo have before us the speech of John C. Breckinridge, delivered in the Hall of the Kentucky House of Repre sentatives, at Frankfort, Deoember 21st 1859—six months ago—by invitation of the Democratic Legislature of his State. After boosting of the sounduess of the Northern. Democracy' on the slavery question, Mr. Breokinridge 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 Everett, 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 who 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, 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 allianoe 1" Ana 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 ! Keep Breckinridge’s endorsement of Everett before the people.—Rich. Whig. • [Jy24tw&wlm] act or vote, and until within a few months ago, repudiated by him ; while all of the above propositions have been advocated *by Mr. Bell for years, and boen endorsed by him in Congress, by his votes and'speeches, us far back as 1848. Who, then, dare impugn Mr. Bell’s soundness upon the question of slavery T ' Who dare question his fideli ty to the South ? The answer is eosy. Every Breokinridge paper and speaker in the Southern States. They have been commending very highly the honesty of those Opposition papers that have re tracted the charge mode against Mr. Breokinridge of having been an emanci pationist. Will they put in practice the same virtue ? The past offers no guar anty that they will. Their custom has been, and is, to blacken the character of. every man outside their party, and 1860 82 92j 101 2 15-100 in. 1859 69 87 98 2 18-100 in. 1858 76 87 94 3 27-100 in. 1857 73 84J 94 5 25-100 in- 1856 72 02J 100 257-100 in. It will be seen by n glance at the fig- Mr. Bell’s Letter to Mr. Watts. We ask everybody, and especially those Democratic croakers who com plain that Mr. Bell ‘has no platform, to read his letter to Coi. Thomas H. Watts which may be found on the first page of this paper. The Convention which nom inated Mr. Bell, adopted as a platform, “The Constitution, the Union, and the Enforcement of the Laws ;” and, in his letter of acceptance, he referred to liis past life and public acts as his construc tion of that platform. Some of his friends, and among them Col. Watts, asked of him a more explicit exposition of his political views upon the questions now prominent before the people. To reply to the numerous letters received by him, would have been a laborious task. He therefore authorized a compi lation of “such of his spe&hes and let ters as have a direct bearing upon the subjects in controversy j or of such ex' tracts therefrom, as to leave nothing to be supplied by further quotations from them.” This printed collection he transmitted with his letter to Mr. Watts. It has not yet reached us, but we may fairly infer its “ bearing upon the subjects in controversy,” from Mr. Watts’ letter which accompanies Mr. Bell’s. And, when weconsider that Mr. Watts refused to endorse Mr. Bell’s nomina tion, and withheld his support uijtil ho was satisfied as to his position upon these important questions, no one will charge him with being biased or incompetent to judge of Mr. Bell’s opinions os con tained in this compilation. Ho lays down the following propositions as, in his judgment, distinctly announced by Mr. Bell: 1. A distinct repudiation of Wilmot Provisoism. 2. A distinct repudiation of “Squatter Sovereignty” as long ago as 1848. 3. A distinct announcement that the Territories are the common property of the States composing the Union ; and that the citizens of each State have the right to go into such Territo ries, with their propertamf every de scription, and whilst there to have protection to property aud persons. 4. That slavery, as it exists among us, is civilly, morally, and religiously right; . sanctioned by the Constitution of the United States, by the Bible, and by the praotice of men in all ages; and that it ought to be extended. urea above that the excess of rain last year over this is but . 3-100 of an inch, amounting to little more than a heavy dew, and scarcely appreciable in its ef fect upon the crops. And yet the .corn crop of 1859 was very good and this year very bad. By another glance at the figures we find that tho Temperature this year, during the montii of July averaged Jive and one third degrees higher than last year during the same month. Again we sec that in 185G, a little more ruin fell than in 1859 or ’60, and the mean Temperature was 92J, the same as this year. It will a remembered that the corn crop of 1850 was very short. Tho inference wo draw from these fucts is that it is not the drought, but heat that damages the ccrn crop, literally burning it up, and by comparing the quantity of rain and the temperature in 1859and’60 it will be discovered that the temperature is not necessarily affec ted by the rain. In 1857 there was a concurrence of fine rains, low temperature and an abun dant corn crop. What the Democracy has done Acqor- ding to Democratic Testimony. Let the honest voters of the whole country read the following manly con fessions from leadihg Democrats from various sections of the Union: “When I first entered Congress, in 1843, the expenses ot the (Government were only $30,000,000 per annum. The country had gone through the okpensive Mexican War with sixty-three thousand soldiers in the field, for thirty millions, and now, in time of peaoe, tno estimates were seventy-three millionst He believ ed forty millions an abundance for tho national expense.”—Hon. A. H. Stephens. “This Government, sixty-nine yenrs of age, scarcely out of its swaddling clothes, is making more corrupt uses of monejt, in proportion to the amount col lected from the people, as I honestly believe, than any other Government on the habitable globe."—Hon. Andrew Johnson, of Tenn. “I think it is not saying too much to an try hi ter and further, in ten years, in extrava gance, than most other countries have gone in centuries..—Gen. Shields. “Before God I believe this to be the most corrupt Government on earth.”— Senator Toombs. “From Tins by-ways and the iiiohivAvs of the Government,-the Rottenness of CORRUPTION SENDS FORTH AN INSUFFERA BLE STENCH 1 WHY ARE THE PEO PLE SO PATIENT? WHY SLUM BERS THE INDIGNATION OF THE DEMOCRACY ?”■—Roger A. Pryor. Humphrey Marshal.—We beg that all our Democratic friends, who have gloried over the enpture of this renegade Kentuckian, will read the following scrap of history, which is taken from the Arkansas State Gazette. Capt. Danley, the editor, was a delogate to the 'Balti more Union convention, and is entitled to confidence: Of our knowledge we can sny that Colonel Marshal endeavored toconvince- members of the Union Convention which met at Baltimore, that they ought to nominate Mr. Doughs for the Presi dency and ignore such Union men ns Mr. Bell andGen. Houston—saying the while not one word in fnvyir of Mr. Breckinridge. Since our Democratic friends have won this elephant at a raf fle, wo are willing that they should rejoice—blit wo beg of them not to say again that they won him from Mr. Bell. whitewash him os soon as he joins them.. . - Th„ y will not good -Uk- in themselves. They would shut their eyes at midday and swear the Bun had gone out. But they cannot shut the eyes ot the people. They will see and read. As soon as we receive the compilation furnished by Mr. Bell, we will publish it, and our readers can judge for them - selves whether or not our candidate is worthy of our confidence and trust. Weather and Crops. The following statistical table of the temperature and quantity of rain that has fallen, during the month of July for the past five years, was furnished us by a gentleman of this place. THERMOMETER IN JULY AT NOON. Lowest. Mean. Highest. Amt. Rain Wheat Crop. The following statement of tho amount of wheat and flour shipped from this point over tho Rome Railroad during the months of June and July for the last five years, will give some idea of the shortness of the wheat crop in • this section of country, including Floyd, Chattooga and Polk counteies, Ga., and the Northwestern counties of Alabama, which export their produce from this place. 1856 1857 1858 1859 I860 Wheat, bu. 13,797 47,107 14,157 14,470 2,702 Flour, lbs. 30,630 10,020 01,300 53,500 32,000 This great discrepancy will be still more obvious when, in connexion with the foregoing, wo take the following statement for the three months ot Au gust September, and October of the four years previous to 1860: 1856 1857 1858 1859 Wheat, bu. 29,557 108,436 72,850 22,880 Flour, tbs. 103,303 35,250 68,800 01,301 For theso same months this year there will perhaps not be a thousand bushels of wheat exported, an'd if any flour it will bo manufactured from wheat brought to this place. There is not now wheat enough in this section for seed and we know of a firm who intend ship ping to thiB point 10,000 bushels for this purpose. Served him Right.—At a recent ses sion of the Court in Charleston, John O’Bryan, convicted before Judge Mon roe, on two indictments for trading Where is the platform that has over with n nd selling liquor to slaves, has been adopted by any party, or set of (been sentenced to a year nnd nine •i men, in any section or State, that is bet ter, sounder, safer for the South than that f We go further and ask, where is one as good, os sound, as safe ? It is not th§ Cincinnati platform. It is not Mr- Douglas' platform. It is not Mr. Breck inridge’s platform. ’• The two former have been repudiated by the South, and the last, although good enough as far as it goes, Inks the fourth clause of Mr. Bell’s platform, and to that extent is not so good. And further still, the Sece- ders’ platform, like the Cincinnati plat form, is a string of resolutions, fixed up for the exigency .of the times, which have never, until just before the Con vention met, been endorsed by the par ty or their Candidate, by.Congrcssiona months imprisonment, and to pay a fine of $2,000. This penalty is none too severe when we consider the evils arising from this pernioious practice. Wo have reason to believe there are persons in this place mean enough to bo guilty of it. They had better take warning in time, or they will find themselves in the hands of the law. jJ®*We learn that Hon Joseph Henry Lumpkin has declined the Presidency of Franklin College recently tendered him by the Board of trustees, and Presi dent) Lipscomb of Tuakegee (Ala.)

Many influential foreign dele gates take part in the discussions, the results of which cannot fail so be im portant and valuable. It is always a good thing to know iiow we stand; and figures, after all, if honestly collect ed and fairly set forth, are the best materials Misjudgement. Tho Song 6f the Shirt. The following too biief notice of Hood’s exquisitely pathetic poem will be read with* interest. It is from the published memorials of him, collect ed and edited by his son and daugh ter: “In the Christmas number of Punch for this year (1843,) appeared the famous ‘Song of the Shirt.’ It was, of course, inserted anonymously, but it ran through the land like Wildfire. Paper after paper quoted it, and it became the talk of the day. There was no little speculation as to its author, although several, I believe Dickens among the number attributed it at once to its right source. “At last my father wrote to one of tho daily papers and acknowledged it. _ lie was certainly astonished, nnd a little amused at its wonderful popularity, al though my mother had said to him, when she was folding up the packet ready for the press: “Now mind Hood, mark my words, this will tell wonder fully 1 It is one of the best things you ever dicl!” This turned out a true prophecy. It Was translated into French nnd German; and even I bo- lievo, into Italian. My father used of ten to laugh and wonder how they ren dered the peculiar burthen, “Stitch, stitch; stitch 1” and also, “Steam and gusset and band.” “It was printed on cotton handker chiefs for sale, and has met with the us ual fate of nil popular poems, having been parodied times without number. But what delighted, and yet touched my father most deeply was, that the poor creatures whose sorrows nnd suf ferings ho had given sucli eloquent voice, seemed to adopt its words ns their own, by singing them nbout the streets to a rude air of their own adap tation.” The Coming Grain Crofs.—The Lon don Times of the 22d ultimo forbodes a famine in England, owing to bad weather and consequent short crops.— Tho prospect of the grain crops in France is also said to be unpromising. On the other hand, the cereal crops in the United States and Cunndu never promised better. A larger crop of wheat than we over had before, by per haps one-fourth, is now secured, or in the process of liarvesting. The crops of buy and oats are also largo, and the promise of the king cf our cereals— Indian corn—was never better. Noth ing short of a large export demand can keep the price of this abundant cereal from fulling below remuneration to the grower. Of the lust year’s crop it is said that tho large furm cribs of Illin ois are still nearly full, yet the receipts at Chicago have averaged over 100,000 bushels a day, from the Illinois canals and lailroads, through the season.—Hat timorc American.
