Lottery Swindle!.
We have repeatedly cautioned our
readers against lottery humbugs, but
these swindlers continue their business
with a perseverence worthy of a bitter
cause. The firm of Bangs A Co, Box
696, Wilmington, Delaware, actually
had the impudence to send us recently
. one of their traps, set to catch “green
i ’uus." They propose for twenty Julian
Late News.

sections of oor late prosperous, peace
fill and happy nation. But the pres- j
ent indications are that some little |
sense of justice is beginning to bo re
alized by the more decent of the
Black Republicans, their moral blinds
are falling off and through their besot-
ed vision they seem, occasionally, to
catch a gleam of the soft effulgence of
moral truth.
The secession of Georgia has done
much towards causing the Hotspuis of
the North to abandon their crazy and
fool-hardy ideas, of coercion, and it is
now relinquished by all, except a very
few of the most ultra anti-States rights
men of the North. The secession of
this State has also magnified the whole
movement, especially, in the eyes of
Northern men, who generally regard
Georgia as the most conservative of all
the cotton States, and they very proper
ly conclude that no one of these States
will stop short of what she has done.
The tide of secession in the border
States is rolling on higher and wider in
ever successive movement, and unless
some sudden and almost miraculous
change in the tone of affairs is made,
all but two, or, possibly, three, of the
slaveholding States will be out of the
Union in 60 days.
The Southern Convention to meet in
Montgomery, on the 4th of February,
will, at least, organize a Provisional
Government, and will doubtless do all
in its power to restore confidence to
the commercial interests of our section,
and quiet any unnecessary apprehen
sions of troubles in the future. There
is now but one party in all the States
that have seceded, and, as none
will be bound by party shackles, wo have
great confidence that in their wisdom
and patriotism, they will come to such
conclusions as will bo entiroly satisfac
tory.
second is worth nothiny at all, and if any
one is foolish enough to be caught in
this “gull trap” he will verify our asser
tion.
Patriotic Letter.
We are permitted to make the fol
lowing extract from a private letter
written to a friend in this place by Col.
James Word—one of our delegates now
in MilUdgeville:
On Saturday we look up the Ordi
nance of Secession ; this was voted on
without debate, except explanations by
members who had voted against N'es-
bet's Resolution, and were then going
to vote for the Ordinance. Some of
those explanations wore very impres
sive. It was a very solemn scene, such
as 1 never witnessed before in a deliber
ative body. There was many a wet eye.
All seemed impressed with the impor
tance of the step. As for myself, I felt
the importance and solemnity of the
move. To give up the Union under
which I was born and had lived and
prospered for more than three score
years—and part perhaps, forever with
the stars and stripes, whose ample folds
had given protection to Americun citi
zens in every clime—was no light mat
ter, but I saw no alternative but seces
sion, or unconditional submission, 1
chose the former. Our honor, our
rights, our independence as Southern
men, and the preservation of Southein
institutions, and above all the peace of
the country, in my opinion, demanded
it. I therefore voted for and gave the
measure my hearty support, and now
1 feel fully committed to the cause of
my beloved Georgia. And, if need be
am willing to offer up all I have and
am upon the altar of my country, (even
to life itself.”
Election ol Delegates to Represent
1lie 5th District in the Southern Don
gress.
When the Fifth District was called,
Mr Wofford of Cass, said :
Mr. President—In the caucus of the
delegates from this District, we requir
ed our nomination to be made by u two
thirds vote. I present the name of the
Hon. Augustus R. Wright, of Floyd, as
the nominee of two-thirds of the dele
gates from the Fifth District.
Mr. Fouehe, of Floyd, said:
Mr. President—In the caucus of our
District, I plainly notified all concerned
that I would not bo bound by it. We
of the minority were willing to take
any man who was a member of tlic co
operation party, who had shown a de
termination to stand by the action of
the State. This gentleman lias not
done so. Indeed, we aro not satisfied
to accept such a man, and hope that
the Convention will not do so. W
present the name of Dr. llomcr V. M
Miller, of Floyd.
Mr. Shropshire, of Floyd, said :
Mr. President—It has been said that
Col. A. R. Wright, who is presented by
tho Fifth District, is unwilling to abide
the action of the State of Georgia,
have reason to know, and speak that
which I do know, when 1 say that this
is a mistake. The last thing that Juilg
Wright said to me before I left home
was this; “Whatever course the State
may take, whatever position she may
assume, my life, my fortune, my ser
vices, and if necessary, my heart’s
warmest blood, arc at her disposal.”—
When l say this I speak what 1 do
know. Again, Mr. President, it has
been industriously circulated that
Judge Wright has made use of danger
ous arguments this campaign, telling
the people that it was a contest between
tho rich and the poor, and that the
non-slaveholder had no interest in it.—
Well, Mr. President, 1 have occasion
to know as to the truth of this charge.
I had the honor to be the candidate
who was run in Floyd county against
Judge Wright for this Convention. He
ma'ie but one speech during tho cam
paign, which I answered, and in that
speech he made use of no such lan
guage. And I declare the whole
charge false from beginning to end. In
regard to this matter I speak that which
I know.
A ballot was then held, and resulted
as follows:
Augustus R. Wright, ot Floyd 140
Hornet V. M. Miller, “ “ ISA
Harrison Riley,of Lumpkin.(no can.). 1
Whole number of votes cast 270.—
Necessary to a choice 139.
Judge Wright having received a ma
jority of all the votes cast, was declared
elected.

The Hypocrisy af Black Republican
Philanthropy.
In view of the secession of the cotton
growing States, influential Black Re
publicans are maturing measures for
acquiring certain of the Central Ameri
can States, and cultivating cotton and
other tropical production* with coolies,
“anprenticoil” after the manner of the
British West Indies. The Albany Ev
ening Journal publishes a lengthened
nigiimonl in favor of the- scheme, and
gives to it editorial endorsement.
Now, the roolie system is slavery un
der another name. Ttio coolies are
purchased or stolen from China as
rea r'v os negroes are purchased or
stolen from the African coast; and the
horrors of the trade equal the horror
nf the African slave trade in every es
sential. The same cruelty is practical
on ship-board, and the poor creatures,
when landed, are neither more nor less
than slaves
As compared with negro slavery, the
coolie system is atrocious. The Afri
can when first obtained, is not many
degrees removed from tho brute; he
has a capacity for labor, but in all oth
er respects is dependent for improve
ment upon the influence* that sur
round his new home. The coolie, on
the other hand, has intelligence, a de
gree of civilization, and a peculiar sen
sitivc _
his race escape from their kidnuppers
by suicide.
Judged by any standard of humanity
or morals, the African slave trade i
vastly less iniquitous than the coolii
trade, us practiced by the ueirroohobist
of Britain and Franco. And the Black
Republicans, who have destroyed the
Union under a pretended regard fot
the negro, nnd from motives of hostili-
tv to negro servitude, are r.ow prepar
ed to own cotton plantations, and cul
tivate them with the. forced labor oI

Outraoious Misrepresentations.■—It
is a most deplorable fact that the news
of the current events, in these exciting

Letter From Ex-President Fillmore
The Hon. Millard Fillmore was, a few
weoks ago, .suggested by a Union meet
ingin New York, as a suitablo person
to go to South Carolina to tender the
people of that State the assurances of
the citizens of New York, that the
North would respect and uphold the
constitutional rights of the South.—
This mission Mr. Fillmore declined,
and in his let or remarked :
What they want, wlmt I want,
some assurance from the republican
party, now dominant at tho Nortl
that they, or at least the conservative
portion of them, are ready and willing
to come forward and repeal all uncon
stitutional State laws; live up to the
compromises of the constitution, cxe-
<U'e the laws of Congress honestly and
faithfully, and treat our Southern brctli
ren ns friends. When I can have any
such reliable assurance as this to give, I
will go most cheerfully and urge our
Southern brethren to follow our exuui-
ple, and restore harmony nnd fraternal
affection between tiie North and the
South. At present, our labors should
bo here. Let us put ourselves right
and then we can with more confidence
and justice appeal to them.
The Freshet In the Tennessee River.
The Chattanooga Advertiser of the 24h

The Tennessee is higher at this time
than it has been since the year 1847.
I ho freshet has occasioned heavy losses

the Senate, by a vote of 37 ayes to !t
nays: in the Uoti.e bv 86 ayes to 27

ADDRESS OF VIRGINIA CONGRESS-
M EX.
Washington, 24.—Ten of the Virgin
ia Congressmen have sent address to
the people of that State, giving a review
of the proceedings and probable action
of Congressmen, in which they say that
it is vain to hope for any measures ol
conciliation or adjustment front Con
gress which the people could accept.
They are also satisfied that the Repub
lican party designs, by civil war alone
to coerce the southern States, under
the pretext of enforcing the laws, unless
it shall become speedily apparent that
the seceding States arc so numerous,
determined and united os to make such
an attempt hopeless. They conclude by
expressing their solemn conviction that
prompt and decided action by the poo-
pie of Virginia in C nvention assembb d
will afford the surest means under the
providence of God, of averting impend
ing civil war, and of preserving the hope
of reconstructing a Union already dis
solved.
Mr. Duoti subsequently made an ex
planation, which was not satisfactory to
Mr. Rust.
Mr. JP erry of Maine made a speech
denunciatory of secession.

Marti.and.—A dispatch to the New
York press, dated Baltimore, Jail. 22d,
says:
“Georgia's secession has stiui k a mel
ancholy blow to the hopes of Maryland.
We are now at the mercy of Viiginia.—
If she secedes, and no speedy compro
mise is made by Congress similar to Mr.
Crittenden’s proposition, I have posi
tive knowledge that the people of Mary
land aro preparing, independent of the
Governor, to elect and convene a sover
eign convention, which will certainly
withdraw the State from the Union be
fore Mr. Lincoln’s inauguration.——
Marylanders pray for posice, but will
not part from Virginia. Intelligent
Virginians, fresh from different dis
tricts of tho State—men anxious for
the Union—tell mo that nothing but a
speedy Congressional concession can
prevent that State from seceding. It is
now understood that Gov. Hicks will
promptly call a convention if Virginia
retires.”
