FOB VICE-PRESIDENT. —Edward Everett of Mass. Mr. Bell and Slavery in D. C. As some of our Democratic friends are eharging Mr. Bell with having been in « ror of abolition of Slavery in the Dis- ct of Columbia, we publish the vote on the suppression of the Slave trade for their special benefit, as a reference for them to use against eaeh other in their fratricidal war. The Douglasites will find orthodox Breukinridgers among the italics, and the Breekinridgerswil* find Douglas himself in the same cate gory. Now, gentlemen, pitch in and give eaoh other fite, and when you get tired of that casus belli, come back and we will give you enough of the same kind to keep you fully employed from now until November. The vote may' be found On page 1830. vol 21 of the Congressional Globe os follows: “Mr. Hal*—Mr. President, I rise to inquire what is the question before the Senate?* * The President—It is on the passage of the bill “to suppress the Blave-traai in the District of Columbia. * * * * * * t Mr. Mason called for the yeas and nays on the passage, and thejn’were or dered, and were as follows: Yeas—Messrs.

Crops and Polities in Middle Georgia. .We take the following items from a private letter from a gentleman of this county, now in Oxford. He says, “The few rains, limited both in quan- ^^^de^tent^have parti illy redeem- . crops of corn. In Putnam, Mor gan and Newton the early pluntings will exeeed the estimates made a month since. The drought, however, in its. generate, influence is unabat&d and hundreds of acres will scarcely return the seed. The crops of cotton will be very small. Picking’is begun, and I thiqk the entire crop will be gathered by the 15th of Ootober. “The Douglas men claim a small ma jority in the village of Eatonton, the county of Putnam, I am informed will give Breokinridge a larger vote thah Douglas. Bell will get a plurality in Putnam. Morgan, and Newton. In Mor^kn the Democrats are almost equal ly divided, Breokinridge-in the majori- -« ity. Indications from other portions of the State render the eleotion of Breok inridge before the people probable. The fact that the writer is a Breckin ridge Democrat accounts for this last sen- tenco. In the counties where he has been Bell is ahead, but off at a distance somewhere, nobody knows where, Breckinridge is going to gel enough votes to elect him. And so it is in each county, The Breekinridger’s do not hope to carry it, but other counties will come to the rescue. The election will set all this right. Breckinridge Electoral Ticket.— The following electors were nomina ted by the Breokinridge State Conven tion on the 8th inst State at large—C. J. McDonald and Henry R. Jackson. 1st District—Peter Cone. 2nd District—Wm. Slaughter. 3d. Distriot—O.-C. Gibson. 4th Distriot -—Hugh Buohanan. 5th Distriot—Lew is Tumlin. 6th District—Hardy Shick- land. 7th Distriot—W. A.

No Go.-'-Ttie Breckinridgers in this place, learning that Mr. Yancey, would pass through this place en route to his appointment at Centre, Ala., today, announced that Hon. William M. Yan cey would speak at Rome on Thurs day night, and notified, him of the foot. Whether he was offended at the appointment without consultation with him, or at the unwarrantable liberty they took with his name, we can not say, but he did hot oome up to schedule time.- He passed through the next mom- Since the foregoing was In type we learn that the trains failed to connect at Atlanta, and henoe Mr Yancey could not reach this place Thursday afternoon.

On motion of John Harkins, Maj. Joshua Daniel was called to the Chair, and J. N. Scott requested to act as Secretary. Mqj. J. Daniel being called on to ex plain the object of the meeting did so in a few brief remarks. On motion of Col. J. E. Parrott, the following Committee were appoittfM to report business for the meeting, viz: Col. J. E. Parrott, John M. Neal, D. R-. Malone, L. D. Cole, and Wylie Roberts. While the Committee were out, Doctor Lee, of Floyd,entertained the audience with a very appropriate and well, timed speech,in beautiful termB setting forth the purity and fidelity of our Constitu tional candidates for the Presidency. Mqjor James Freeman being loudly and enthusiastica'ly called for appeared on the stand and stated that ho was not a public speaker, but that he would challenge the world to pub forth a purer and better man than John Bell, and took his sent amidst great applause. The Committee having returned made the following report which was unanimously adopted. Resolved, That we are in favor of the Platform adopted by the Constitutional Union Convention at its late session in the City of Baltimore, and recommend it to the favorable consideration of all men of all parties in the United States. Resolved, That we ratify the nomina tions of John Bell and Edward Everett, for tile Presidency and Vice-Presiden cy, and pledge ourselves to use all lion orable means to secure them the votes of Gordon county. Resolved, That in the opinion of this meeting, the success of this ticket can alone (under present circumstances) secure the perpetuity of the Union and the maintainance of peace. Resolved, That the preservation of this Union, according to the Constitu tion and the Laws, is a paramount ob- ject of patriotic desire and should in duce all men who love the Union and desire to transmit to posterity the liber ty which wo have inherited from our fathers, to cast their suffrages for these men whose lives and whose patriotism afford a sufficient guarantee that in their hands the interests of the Repub lio will not suffer. Resolved, That W. J. Cantrell, James Freeman, J. E. Parro.t, A. P. Bailey, F. M. Cabot, John S. Dobbins, John H. Start, James Hill, Wylie Roberts, James M.

Commencement hereafter on second Wednesday in July, after which vaca tion until 1st of September. Second va cation from 1st December to 5th Junu- ary. John Bell and Wm. L. Yancey. We see going the rounds of the press, what purports to be a letter from the Hon. Wm. L. Yuncey, addressed to gentlemen m Alabama, in which he as serts that the record of Mr. Bell shows, among other things, that Mr. Boll holds the opinion “that if the Wilmot Proviso wore to be atta'ched to Territorial bills, it would be right to sanction it.” Well suppose Mr. Bell does hold this opinion oan any gentleman point to a vote of his, which proposed to sanction the doc trine inpraotiee? Does Mr. Yancey hold the opinion attributed by him and his udherents to John Bell? Let facts answer. The Wilmot Proviso was attach ed to the bill organizing the Territory of Oregon, and, if we mistake not, Mr.. Yancey, in the House of Representa tives, under his oath to support the Con stitution, voted for that Bill. Howell Cobb voted for tile same bill, under oath—most of the Soutli Carolina delegation voted for the same bill. James K. Polk, a Southern Democratic President, under his oath to support the Constitution approved the bill. If Mr. Bell’s opinions be so odious, his acts are not such ; but wh(it shall we say of those sound, true Southern Bell and Everett la Kentucky. The Maysville Eagle notices a rally of the friends of Bell and Everett in the following glowing terms: “Never before did wo witness the en thusiasm of an audience reach so high a point, as it did Monday night, during ■the speech of W.-H. Wadsworth. It was an audience of which’any speaker might well be proud. Every precinct in the country was represented- by a large number of gallant and true men; ana even from Nicholas, and Fleming and Lewis, and from the adjacent coun ty in Ohio, old men and young men copie. and joined their hearty enthusias tic shouts for Bell and Everett. “After the conclusion of the speech, the Maysville Quadrille Band played one of the national airs, and the hearty, loud and continued cheers went up for Bell and Everett. The people in heart, are for Bell and Everett, and they must and will triumph.” Another Dred Scott Case.—Wo un derstand from the Shelby (Ky.) News that a suit has been instituted in the Shelby CircuitCourt involvingthe ques tion, of sliwety in the North-western Territory, os nffected by the oidinnnce of 1787. The plaintiff asserts that his master became a permanent resident of'IUinois, and took the plaintiff to ’that State, and there kept him during the period of his residence'therein.— The plaintiff claims -that by virtue of the ordinance of 1787 and the Constitu tion and laws of Illinois, this residence liberated him from slavery.

Calhoun, 7th Aug., I860 Messrs Editors - The meeting which had been called by the Constitutional Union party of Gordon, to ratify the nomination of Bull and Everett und ap point delegates to attend tho Milledge- ville Convention to meet on tho 13th inst., came off to day. It was ono of the largest political meetings which has taken place in our county for years. It was rather amus ing to look upon the long faces of some of the Democrats, as they stood around the out-skirts of the crowd, and saw many men whom they had claimed as belonging to their party, participating in this meeting. Such was the demon strations made in favor of our candi dates that tho democracy became alarm ed and on the adjournment of our mee- ting, gave notice that they would have a speech that evening from some of their pets. I did not attend, but understand they bad but a smalt crowd and a poor speech, I will keep you posted in fu ture- GORDON. .tor Toombs did not stateSeimmstinMaMlMmeveral of too opposition Newspapers, that Mr. Toombs said in his speech in Wafrenton that Mr, Bell was as sound on the Slav ery question as he was. We havo Mr. Toombs own authority for saying, that he made no such statement.—Fed. Un ion. We made this statement upon the authority of the Chronicle & Sentinel, as much a compliment to Mr. Toombs* fairness, as an evidenoe of Mr.-Bell’s soundness.

The paint had in it a pe culiar and very penetrating chemical mixture, which Mr. Tiemnn has since applied with other colors, to other plants, apnual, dienninl and of the shrub kind—the result being invdria- bly that the flowers so watered took tlie hue of the liquid deposited.at their- roots.

A vigilance committee was orga nized und resolutions adopted, recom mending the expulsion ol <di white per sons suspected of entertaining Abolition sentiments, reprobating the practice ol giving general passes, and selling liquor and urtlis to slaves, A meeting, with a similar object in V.ew, was held in Hempstead on the same uuy, at which precautionary measures were taken. In Wood county a public meet ing was held on tlie 19th, and as- vigi lance committee was appointed, us well as a watch for the town of Quit- man. It has been ascertained that tho ne groes of Grimes county have held secret meetings, und many of them are suppli ed with arms. A mass meeting of tho citizens of Lamar county was held at- Paris oil tiie 28th ult., for tlie purpose of taking steps to ferret out persons suspected of abolitionism in that vicin ity. » In Faybtte county, a band of runtiwuys was thought to have been organized, their destination being Mex ico. Tlie Giliner Tribuno reports the arrest of tiiree negroes in that town on the 19th. They hud in their possession pus ses, pnpers, and various documents, way hills to tlie Indian Nation, pistols, powder, caps and writing materials.— They said they were from Henderson county.

It was organ ized by men named McDonald and Gil bert. It wus proved by a large number of witnesses that both McDonald and Gilbert were abolitionists, and that Gil bert hod said that if everybody in Ala bama thought as ho did, slavery would not exist in the State three years. Mc Donald, it was also proven, had consti- fetLhimself agent for abolition nubli- tions and had engaged to furnish one of the witnesses with sev^fol books, among which was ono of Fred.
