Those gentlemen whoso names we
have italicised, being nineteen out of
the twenty-seven, have published a card
ha the Dalton Times and Augusta Demo-
Mu, denying any connexion with the
Douglas party, and saying their names
were hsod in the meeting without their
consent.
In authorising the Committee to fill
vacancies, we are of the opinion that
the power conferred is too unlimited.

Astonishing.
The Breckinridge papers have been
untiring in their denunciations of Mr.
Bell as “unsound on the slavery ques
tion,” and none more vehement than
the Augusta Democrat and Dispatch. The
former paper of the 31st of August, pub
lished an article alleging that he was
nominated by abolitionists, and in an ad
joining column a labored effort to prove
him a disunionist. Extracts from his
speeches were paraded to support this
position, and we find them in the Dis
patch also of the same date. They cer
tainly must be sadly in want of argu
ments thus to make charges so contra
dictory. But here are the extracts al
luded to, and we ask if any one, after
reading them, would be unwilling to
confide the interests, the rights and the
honor of the South in the hands of such
a man as Chief Magistrate of the United
States. *
“Sir, no man who loves his country.no
man who has any just pride in the re
flection that he is an American citizen,
but must desire that these dissensions
should cease. For, sir, it is not a mere
question whether we shall preserve the
Union ; for that may be, and yet prove
no great boon either tc ourselves or to
posterity. The question is not whether
these States shall continue united accor
ding to the letter of the covenant by
which they are bound together. It is,
whether they shall continue to be prac
tically and efficiently co-operative in
carrying out the great ends of the asso
ciation. The question is whether mutu
al trust and confidence shall continue to
animate and encourage mutual efforts in
promoting and multiplying common
benefits; or whether mutual hatred and
distrust shall step in to check all pro
gress; to distract and confound all joint
endeavors for the common welfare; in
fine, to entail upon the country all the
evils of endless discord. That is the
question. And when you present that
issue to me, I say give me separation ;
give me disunion; give me anything in
preference to a Union sustained only by
power, by Constitutional and legal ties,
without reciprocal trust and confidence.
If our future career is to be one of eter
nal discord, of angry crimination and re
crimination, give me rather separation
with all its oonsequenoes. If I am to be
at peace, let it be peace in reality; and
if I am to be* at war, let me know it at
once, that I may put my house in order
and be ready to meet the consequen
ces.”—(Speechon ihe Compromise Measures,
July, 1850.)
And, again, on the 18th of March,
1858, he said:
“When the North shall, by any delib
erate act, deprive the South of any fair
and just and equal participation in the
benefits of the Union—if, for example,
the Territory now proposed to be admit
ted into the Union as a State, had not
been subject to an interdict of slavery
for thirty years—if it were a Territory
such os that lying west of Arkansas, by
climate adapted to slave labor, and by
population already a slave Territory;
and if, on an application of such a Ter
ritory for admission into the Union as a
slave State, the powerful North, without
any of the feelings and sentiments natu
rally growing out of the repeal of the
Missouri Compromise in regard to Kan
sas, should deliberately announce to the
South “you shall have no more slave
States,” that would afford a pretext with
which the South might, with some rea
son, and with some assurance of the ap
proval of the civilized world and of pos-
teritj, seek to dissolve the Union.”—
(Appendix to Congressional Globe—1857
and 1858; page 132.)
Not for Douglas.
On the 7th day of August a Douglas
meeting was held in Chattooga county
and the following resolution adopted:
Resoloed, That an executive commit
tee, consisting of three from each dis
trict in this county, be appointed to
call all Democratic conventions neces-.
sary to be held in this county; and that
said committee be authorised to'fill va-
canoies, if any should happen, with re
spect to their number.

i» For tho Rome Courier.
The signs of the times are ominous
and call upon us for vigilance and ac
tion. Evidently there are persons in
our midst, robbers and murderers at
heart, seeking to instil their diabolical
principles into tho minds of the ne
groes, that they may by their assistance
reduce the country to a helpless condi
tion, making it an easy matter to plun
der, rob and steal.
We believe this to bo their leading
object, rather than sympathy and love
for the negro, for if they cared for the
negro’s welfare they would not try to
dissatisfy him with his normal and pro
per condition, in which he is doing
well, more happy in spirit t.nd more
bountifully supplied with tho comforts
of life than aro those villains who are
endeavoring to inoite him to rebellion
against a kind master, the result of
which will bo the negro’s own misery
and destruction. Honest men are nev
er detected in tampering with negroes
in this way; but on the contrary, such
men always prove to belong to that
class in whom the people have no confi
dence, but believe to be rogues. While
it is our duty to watch and guard against
the mischief that sucli characters may
prompt tho negroes to do, it is never
theless, more important that we watch
for, catch and deal with these roguish
scoundrels who lie at the foundation ol
the mischief.
There are such men in almost every
community, and our country needs
purging of such characters. They are
for the most part, beneath the reach of
both the law and gospel and have to be
dealt with <n a more convenient and
summary manner than in .ordinary ca
ses.
Lynch-law is the only law that can ef.
factually’ reach such characters, and in
times of-peril such as now environ us,
when called upon to protect our lives,
our property, and that which is dearer
to us than either, it is especially neces
sary, to push lynch-law to the extreme,
that the country may bo rid of such
characters, and our safety secured. If
such characters are taken up and whip
ped or expelled the country, this does
not remedy the matter, but only makes
it worse. It is like turning a dog loose
enraged with hydrophobia, under the
apprehension that he will strike off in
to another community, which would be
radically wrong; but besides, if that
same dog did not return intoyour midst
some dog infected by him might, and
ore you are uware of it, spread dread
ful havoc and destruction around. In
northern Texas gometime hist year, the
people drove twoabolitionists from their
country who sent back substitutes in
their place, with whom they had secret
communications, and though at a dis
tance, they had laid plans which de
stroyed almost millions of property
and had well nigh devastated the whole
of northern Texas.
If, on the contrary, the peoplo had
executed lynch law upon those men to
the extreme and put an end to them,
how much anxiety, how much property,
how- many more valuable lives than
theirs might have been saved. I may-
wrong, but nevertheless 1 candidly be
lieve to deal thus with such rogues and
murderers, anil thereby- preserve valua-
ablc human life and character, would
be doing God's service.
But lot us not forget that lynch-law
is dangerous tojustico and right in the
hands of an enraged mob. Let no one
be dealt harshly with unless suspicion
is established by indubitable evidence,
and in such cases negro testimony, when
supported by circumstances, ought to
be admissible, for it is almost solely
with negroes that such characters deal.
Vigilance.
The Patrol Laws.
We are decidedly in favor of having
the patrol laws rigidly enforced—the
signs of the times demand it; but their
execution should be placed in proper
hands. We have heard of more than
one outrage committed by individuals
acting under authority of the Commis
sioners.
On one occasion they entered the
yard of an .old and feeble widow lady,
At the hour , of midnight, and after
greatly alarming her, so maltreated a
negro woman for some slight cause,
that she was confined to her bed foi
several days. Again they went upon
the premises of a gentlemen and in a
most boisterous manner aroused qll the
negroes on the place, and uttered pro-
fane language in such a loud voice os to
be overheard by tho ladies in tho
house.
We hope the proper authorities will
rectify such abuses. It appears to us
that each man con patrol his own plan
tation, and those appointed by the
Commission era should never invade the
premises of another without sufficient
cause to suspect something wrong is
going on, and then the owner should be
notified of their intentions.
Excitement in Alabama.
The Talladega papers, contain full ac
counts of the detection of a plot among
the negroes, set on foot by white men,
to burn the town ami kill the inhabi
tants. Several negroes and two white
villains wore arrested ; one of the latter
was bung and the other will follow
him.
The Selma papers say- a similar affair
has come to light in that place, and a
meeting of the citizens called to take
precautionary measures. And yet in
the faco of all these faets developing
themselves almost simultaneously, in
different sections of the country, some
persons affect to ridicule the idea of dan
ger from such a source.
SQy-The notorious anti-Leeompton
Douglas Democrat John Hickman, who
went over to the Black Republicans
during the last session of Congress, has
been defeated in the nominating Con
vention of bis District, by, .John M.
Brownludl.
More Incendiarism.
Through the reports found in the
Texas papers, fn regard to the late ex
inordinary scenes that have been wit
nessed, we givo a condensed account of
them to our readers, as a part of the
history of the times. We copy from
the Houston Telegraph, of tho 17tli
inst.:
The Tyler Reporter, of the 7th, says
that a report has just reached there
that Belleview, in Rusk county, was
burned on the night of the 4th
ult.
The same .paper says that DaiTgerfield,
in Titus county, is burned.
At Athens, Henderson county, a well
was discovered to bo poisoned on Sun
day night, the 5th inst., and over 100
bottles of strychnine wus found in pos
session of negroes. On examination the
plot was brought to light, which was to
poison as many as possible at breakfast,
and then the knife and tho pistol, with
which they were well supplied, were to
do the balance of tho work. All the
old women and young children were to
be murdered, and the young women
were to bo takon as wives by the hell
hounds.
A patrol of one hundred men is on
duty every night in Tyler, and this has
thus far saved that town.
A stable, belonging to John T. Car
lisle, in Athens, was burned by an in
cendiary bn tho evening of the 6th.
A negro belonging to Mr. Barron, at
Science Hill, Henderson county, was
bung on thc3d—strychnine having been
found in his possession, and ho having
confessed to having a hand in tho insur
rection.
A gentleman, writing from Rusk,
Cherokco county, 4th inst., gives an ac
count of a plot to poisoji the whole
community on election day. 1’oison
was found in the possession of several
of tho negroes, and confessions nro
elicited of a determination to poison
anil murder tho whole people. Similar
plots had been discovered in Anderson
and Henderson counties.
One or two fires have lately occurred
in Galveston, which are plainly attribu
table to negro incendiaries. Tho female
portion of the inhabitants, the News
says, exhibit much alarm.

IIvilROI-llunlA AMI Smotiierinu.—In
the Dublin Chronicle, 28th of October,
1788, tho following circumstance is re
corded :
“Thurs lay morning, an accident imp-
pencil at the Bliickiock (neur Dublin,)
which 1ms been attended with most
melancholy circumstance*. A tine hoy
about fourteen years old, passing by a
gentleman’s house, the indy’s lapdog
ran out anil hit him ; in about two hours
tho youth was seized with convulsive
fits, and shortly after with the hydro
phobia; and notwithstanding every as
sistance that night, his friends were, on
Friday 'obliged to smother him between
two beds.”
Douglas and Jounso.v.—Senator Doug
las in a speech recently delivered at
Norfolk, Va., in reply to questions pro
pounded to him, declared that should
tho Southern States secede from the
Union in tho event of Lincoln’s electiqn,
he would bo in favor of coercing them
into submission.

count of the discovery of an insurrec
tion plot among tho negroes in that
place, and their confessions that white
men had instigated them, and that
they had intended to set fire to the
town on Sunday night, the 26th of
August, eonoludes as follows:
“That some blaok hearted abolition
ist or abolitionists, have been tampering
with the blacks in this place and vicini
ty there can bo no question, and the
owners of slaves and the city authori
ties cannot be too watchful.”

Official Vote of North Carolina.—
It appears from the official returns of
the late gubernatorial election in North
Carolina that Ellis, ilem., received 59,
500, and Pool, opp., 53,262. Majority
for Ellis 6,328. Tho democratic vote
has increased since t lie last election 3,-
161, while that of tho opposition lias
increased 13,21(1—total increased vote
ol the State 10.377, which is within
six votes of Ellis’ majority two years
ago.
Walkei.’.. l'o in ion and Prospf.cts.—A
dispatch to tlie Charleston Mercury, da
ted New Orleans, 8ept. 2, says; "The
schooner Toucey has arrived here with
later accounts of the movements of Gen.
Walker and the filibusters.
‘Guardiola was surrounding Truxillo
with a large force. Walker's men were
prosecuting tho work of fortification
witli vigor. Gen. Walker had advised
the people of Truxillo to emigrate to
Rualan Island. It was supposed that
Walker’s force would bo strong enough
to offer a successful resistance to Giinr-
tliolu. Reinforcements from Cabanas
were anxiously expected. The schooner
.1. A. Taylor, freighted with arms and
ammunition for Walker, and also carry
ing fifty recruits, hud eluded the vigi
lanco of the British cruisers and had nr
rived safe at Truxillo. It was supposed
that Walker would very soon proceed
to Nicaragua to carry out his scheme of
consolidating the Central American
Government.”
Child Frightened to Death.—The
Elkhart county (Ind.) Times says that a
little son of D. D. McKnight, living near
Middlobury, aged about nino years, was
frightened todoath a few days ago while
gathering berries with another little boy
Tho owner of the promises seeing them,
threatened to shoot them, and seta dog
on them, and so scared tho little fellow:
that they ran home, a considerable dis
tance, when little McKnight was found
to bo insane with terror, fanoying that
ho had been shot at, and that the dog
was after him, and remained delirious
few days, when he died.
8©* We learn from S. H. Sheldon
Esq., of Sufflold, that tho family of Mi'
chael Quinnan, ofSuffield, were poison
ed by eating toadstools—supposing thorn
to be'mushrooms. Two of the children
died yesterday, one aged 6 years and tho
other 4 years. Mr. Q.’s wife and the
only remaining child, aged 2 years, are
not expeotod to live. This is not tho
first oaso of loss of life from the same
cause. The two vegetables closely ro
semble caoh other, and peoplo should
avoid mushroom eating altogether.
