A Test.
Every true child of God will earnestly desire
to oe conformed to his will, not only in the way of
submission, hat in tbe discharge of active duty.
The mind that is enlightened to discern the beauty
of holiness will desire to be arrayed in that boh- (
ness. The mind that perceives the excellence of |
the divine law, will dea.tj to rendet that la* all j
tbe obedience it demands. A apuiuial vie*- of the
divine character must excite the ardent aspiration
to be conformed to that character.
There are some who are satisfied with what they
consider “just religion enough to carry them to
heaven.” They regard it as they would tbe money
requisite to bear the expenses of a journey—aa the
bridge which was strong enough to carry them
safely over a chasm which could not otherwise be
crossed. Os the genuineness of such piety we
stand in doubt. There is little reasou. to believe
that such persons have ever been spiritually en
lightened to discover the vileness of their own
hearts, or the purity of the law of God. Ua who
is conscious of the defilement of aiu must seek to
be utterly delivered, not only from its condemna
tion, but from its contamination.
Every one who has hope in Christ will endeavor
to purify himself even as He is pure. But are
auch efforts consistent with being satisfied with low
attainments in piety ? How can such an one regard
it as the very consummation of heaveoiy bliss not
only to see Christ in glory, but to be like him ?
When the renewed heart pants after God, the
living God, it desires him not only as the source of
happiness, but as the Spirit of holiness. • The
prayer of tbe growing Christian is not only “ Lift
upon me the light of thy countenance, and grant
me the joys of thy salvation,” bat “ create within
me a clean heart, and renew a right spirit within
me;” “Order my footsteps by thy word.”—Cen
tral Presbyterian.
Political Ambition and ll* Kutardv
The eloquent testimony of Guizot, which we
copy below, to tbe emptiness of political distlnc’
tion, ought to reconcile those who have never suc
ceeded in attaiuing such distinction to the more
obscure walks of life, in which the multitude of
men must always remain. We find it quoted by a
contemporary from the third volume of the recent
ly published memoirs ot the great statesman and
historian :
“ I have no desire to intrude my private life and
feelings on public attention. The more they are
profound and tender, the less they are disposed to
exhibit themselves, for I cannot show them in their
intense reality. Kings exhibit their crown jewels
to the inspection of the curioos; hot we do not
parade our private treasures, the mine of which is
only known to tbe owners. Yet, when the fatal
day arrives in which these invaluable
are wrested from us, it would be evincing toward
them a proper want of respect and faith not to de
clare the esteem in which they were held and the
■void they have left. I have been strongly attach
ed to political life, and have applied myself to it
with ardor. I have devoted to public duties, with
out hesitation the sacrifice and efforts they deman
ded from me; but these pursuits have ever been
far indeed from satisfying my desires.
It is not that I complain of the incidental trials.
Many public servants have spoken with bitterness
of the disappointments they have experianced, the
reverse 3 they have undergone, the severities of
fortune, and the ingratitude of men. I have noth
ing of the kind to say, for I have never acknowl
edged such sentiments. However violent I may
have been stricken, I have never found men more
blind or ungrateful, or my politicl destiny more
harsh than I expected. It has had alternately, and
in great abundance, it joys and sorrows; such is
the law of humanity. But ft has been in tbe hap
piest days, and in tbe midst of the most brilliant
success of my career 4 that I have found the insuf
ficiency of public life. The political world Is cold
and calculating; the affairs of government are lof
ty and powerfully impress tbe thought; but they
caonot fill tbe soul, which has often more varied
and more pressing aspirations than those of the
most ambitious politician. It longs for a happi
ness more intimate, more complete, and more ten
der than that which all the labors and triumphs of
active exertion and public importance can bestow.
What I know to-day, at the end of my race, 1 have
felt when it began, and during its continuance ;
even in the midst of great undertaking*, domestic
affections form the basis of life; and the most bril
liant career has only superficial and incomplete en
joyments, if a stranger to the happy ties of family
and friendship.”
Peace.— Peace is better than joy. Joy is an
uneasy guest, and always on tiptoe to depart. It
tires and wears ua out, and keeps us ever fearing
that the next moment it will be gone. Peace is
DOt so—it comes more quietly, it stays more con
tentedly, and it never exhausts onr strength, nor
gives as one anxious forecasting thought. There
fore, let us pray for peace. It is the gift of God—
promised to all Ills children ; and if we have it in
our hearts, we shall not pine for joy, though its
bright wings never touch us while we tarry in the
■world.
DorcLas and RitEraiMtinwc.—The Democratic
Convention of Illinois declared by resolution,
that—
Slavery, if it exists in a Territory, dm t not dt-
Ti>! ita validity from tbe constitution of the United
Stales, hut Ja a mere municipal institution existing
in such Territory under the lam thereof.
Breckinridge declared by resolution in 1850—
Resolved, By the General Assembly of the Com
monwealth of Kentucky, That tbe question of
jSlavery in the Territories, being teholly local and
domestic, belongs to the people who inhabit them.
Will any one show wherein the principles set forti.
in the ah ora resolutions differ from each other *
Do not both declare slavery in the Territories to
be local, and only subject to the laws thereof *—

educational Self-Dev< lopm> ot.
A writer in the North British Review furnishes
ns with the following thoughts on this subject:—
••It cannot be too earnestly insisted upon, that in
education tbe process of seif-development should
be encouraged to the greatest possible exten'.
Children should be led to make their own inferen
ces. They should be told as little as possible, and
induced to dieeorer aa much as possible. They
should be pot in the way of solving their own
questions. To tell a child this, and to show it that,
is not to show it how to observe, but to make it a
mere recipient of another’s observations : a pro
ceedin'* which always tends to weaken rather than
to strengthen its powers of self-instruction ; which
deprive-i it of the pleasures resalting from success
ful activity; which presents this all-attractive
knowledge under the aspect of formal tuition ;
which thus generates that indifference and even
disgust with which its lessons are not uafrequentiy
regarded. On the other hand, to pursue die natu
ral course, is simply to guide tbe intellect to ics
appropriate food; to joiu with the intellectual ap
petite their natural adjuncts; to induce, by U.e
union of these, an intensity of attention which in
sures perceptions alike vivid and complete ; and to
habituate the mind from the very beginning to
that practice of self-help that must aliiaaate.v

The Peosle Demand Union. —From every quar
ter ot the State, we have assurances that tbe de
mand for a union of the conservative elements, to
defeat Lincoln is too stong to be resisted by pol
iticians gho have been opposed to such a policy.
There is no mistaking this sentiment, since it is
the honest, earnest, and sincere opinion of the
manes of Union loving men, who have an object
to accomplish, and desire to go about it in a poe
tical, straight-forward manner. They demand a
•ingle electoral ticket, made np from the two now
before tbe pubfic, in fair proportion according to
the probable streDght of tbe candidate in the Sta e,
without circumlocution or trickery, and with the
distinct, avowed and determined purpose of accom
plishing the defeat of the Republican candidate
The matter now rests with tbe two State Commit
tees, and they must make up their minds to meet
the questions like bold men who are charged with
• responsibility which they have tbe courage to
grapple with ana dispose of. There is no mist; k
iag the wishes of the Democrats and the Union
men of New York. They Lave their preferences
as to candidates for the Presidency! but their first
■nd paramount object is to defeat the sectional
party with which they have hitherto contend ‘d.
That accomplished, any result within the range of
probabilites will be accepted, as a happy solution
of tho problem now before the American people.
Let the Committees meet the question like sta’.es
®leP.a patriots, and not in the spirit of mere
politicians. Partisan politic* sink into insignifi
cance when compared with the great qoestior to
be decided at tbe coming election.

Independence of Railroad*.
The benefits of railroads will never, perhaps, be
imre forcibly illustrated than during this coming
season. Many portion- of the South will produce
scarcely any corn at all, yet, such a thing aafam
ine price* for it will not be known where there are
riilroads.
The Louisville Courier , of late date, says:
The large Southern demaud for flour and grain
j has given the Louisville and Nashville Railroad
more work than it could do, aad to-day they were
compelled to send notices around to the various
! shippers, informing them that they would receive
!no more freight of any description until Monday
| next. The depot and yards of the Railroad Com-
I paoy are now tilled to overflowing, and they also
have over one hundred cart on the track now, all
loaded with flour and grain, which has been sold
by our merchants to parties in Georgia and Ala
bama. Tbe trade which our merchants have had
with the Sooth this year is much larger than any
previous season, and for tbe future promises to be
one of the most profitable trades now open to
Loniaville. •
Thu all proves that railroads are jjreat equnlixersr
They regulate prices, in the most important cases-
A valley region may be abundantly supplied with
grain, and Hie bill country, contiguous to it, may
l>e almost destitute of it. The price, in this case,
is regulated by the home supply; and, if that be
not ample, high prices follow.
But if this bill region be connected by rail, with
other portions of the country, having an abun
dance of grain to sell, the price is influenced by
competition abroad, and thus more or less equalized.
Our great Eastern line has lately been doing a
business truly enormous in grain freights; and we
are confident that corn can be carried to Georgia
and South Carolina on better terms by this than
by any olber line. Coming from St. Louis to this
point at rates too low for railroad competition, it
takes rail here, with less distance to reach Steven
son than when sent from Louisville.
We beg our Georgia and Carolina exchanges to
note it, for the benefit of their readers—Mem

will be read with a degree of satisfaction by eve

*9 I*** l * s*r ■ I have yours of the 20th inst.,
and thank yen for it. Whilst I would have been
glad not to have been placed on the electoral tick
et of the Constitutional Union Party, much prefer
ring as far as possible, my separation from politics,
and parties ; yet a* my fellow-citizen* of that par
ty have been to pat me in nomination, I
have not allowed myself for a moment to hesitate
a* to my acceptance of the position. The condi
tion of tbe country does not allow a patriot citizen
to withold himself from her service when it is
thought he may be useful. The party has all my
sympathy and earnest wishes for its success. I
can do hut little beyond the use of my name, (If
indeed that may be worth anything,) but such as It
is I “hall not withold if. I have not been notified
by the committee of my nomination ; when that is
received, as I suppose that to be the course, I if ill
accept.
I write this hurried line at night, merely in ac
knowledgement of yours, and to give you this as

The Sorirn or Growing Corn.— Did you ever
bear corn grow ? You have probably heard the
remark, “ourcorn grows so fast that you cau hear
it.” That is supposed, bv,people who don’t know,
to be a figure of speech only ; but the remark out
here is a literal fact, fflfcjnto one of these “bot
tom” corn fields forty or fifty rods on a warm July
day, or August night, when a bright moon is up,
(for-vegetation grows faster in moonlight than in
darkness,) and a few hours after a heavy shower
that has fairly wet the earth, and waked up tbe
drowsy corn to its influences, and as the main
stalk struggles up through the contracted lips of
the upper blades, then crack and burst around you
like the stifled reports of ten thousand rifles!
That cornfield will be some inches higher at sun
rise tbe next morning than at the last sundown.
There ia no mistake about it. Hr hare heard corn
grow many a time, and so every farmer along in
the Scoita valley will tell you.— The World.
VEorTAßtrs ani> Mi scli. —The vegetarians at
Dr. Trail’s water cure establishment, No. 15 Laight
street, gave one of their peculiar dinners yester
day to Mr. D. A. Martin, the man who has just ac
complished the astounding frat of polling a two
oared wherry all the way from Boston to New
York rowing the 4**o miles in about 80 hours of
actual work, and finding his entire food and drink
in water-melons, apples and berries. At the
vegetable banquet yesterday, Mr. Martin made
some statements calculated to amaae beef-eaters.
He said that he had lived for two weeks of this
summer exclusively on cherries, and had done
more during that time than he could hire any
workman to do. Tbe nearer he conformed to a
fruit diet tbe better he felt. He had undertaken
the rowingjadveniure eiprassly to show how much
a person could endure on a vegtable diet.
Ctucaoo.— !f. P. Willi*, in one of his letters
from oat West, says“A strartling effect at Chi
cago, for tbe traveller’* eye, is the sudden crossing
of the principal streets by Urge vessels and appa
rently with no more interruption to the moving
tide of vehicles than would bs mads by tbe tran
verae passing of a rail-car. The busiest quarter of
the city is built around the winding* of a deep
creek—and, by me*ns of a most ingenious set of
pivot bridges, the ware-houses, which are thas in
center of tbe town, can bring in their ships to nn
load cargoes at the door, the bridge being part of
a broad thoroughfare one minute whirling around
to let a large vessel go past, and in another minute
restored to its place again! It is wonderful to
stand near and watch the operation of one of these
beantiful machines; but it is, I repeat, still more
wonderful to find it part of the perspectives of
different street* retching in different directions, as
if ships and cart-horses were moving equally well
over all tbe paved thoroughfares.”
Gov. tvole oh Hell.
Gov. Foote made a three hours speech before
the late Staunton Convention. He exposed the dark
corruptions of the present Administration, andiidt and

.Hr. Breckinrfdice not a MiaveOwner.
We have received a great many letters from the
South, says tbe Lot.isviile Journal , requesting us
to slate whether John C. Breckinridge, who we be
lieve is a man of wealth, does or does not own
any slaves. We do not know whether an answer
to this oft-repeated question is important, but we
will give one. Mr. Breckinridge and bis family
live in Lexington and board at tbe Phoenix hotel,
and be votes in that city. For tbe past three years
he has not listed any property for taxation, either
real or personal, as appears from the tax books.—
He lias a free colored woman as a nurse. We un

MACON ANNUAL COTTON STATEMENT.
The receipts of the crop of last year, ending

It should be somewhat gratifying to our people
to know that our little rity yet holds its own ; with
au increase in the receipts of the great staple, t hat
always carries business and wealth with it. Al
though its corporate limits aie less than some oth
ers, (and consequently may have a less number of
inhabitants,) yet, for their extent, in cotton Bags,
Merchandize, fine buildings, and solid wealth, it
yields the palm to none. We throw out the invi
tation to all who might doubt this to call and see
us.
Niw Cotton.—Tbe amount of new cotton re
ceived this year up to this time, is unusually large.
It is now fully 850 bags.
THUS WAS A GRAND RALLY
Os the friends of Bell and Ererett on the 28th
wit., In this city. A large procession was formed
at tbe Court-House, and with “ tinkling bells,”
transparencies and appropriate banners, preceded
by the Macon Band, marched to Concert Halb
where the meeting was organized by calliug J. 11.

< >n taking the chair Mr. Collins expressed his ac
knowledgments In a brief and appropriate speech.
After which, the meeting was addressed in an able
and satisfactory manner, by Col. Doyal, Elector
for this District, and Col. Goode, one of the Alter
nates. So large was tbe audience that many could
not gain admittance, and a most earnest and re
ipectful hearing was given to the speakers. We
were much pleased with the eonoilliatory tone of
the addresses. They were dignified and argumen
tative, devoid of slang and clap-trap.
The friends of the National Union Ticket in
this county, are now thoroughly organized, and
have entered heartily into the canvass, full of en
thusiasm and high hopes of success. We are g!ad
to see so many of our young men, who cast this
year their first vote for President, enlisting under
the Union banner. To their hands will soon be
committed the destiny of this great Republic. Let
them not undervalue the blessings of free govern
ment, but in the spirit of thoir patriot fathers,
stand gallantly by 44 the Union, the Constitution,
and the enforcement of the laws.”
INSURRECTIONS.
We have thought it advisable to publish but lit
tle upon this exciting and alarming question. That
there is a growing spirit of discontent and insub
ordination among a portion of our servile popula
tion, we think mu*t be apparent to every careful
observer. Nor is this at all surprising. Indeed,
it is strange that things are no worse. This class
of persons are now found in our hotel*, itores and
workshops—on our railroads and steamboats,
everywhere commingling with all sorts of charac
ter*, and listening to discussions upon *ll kinds of
topics. Add to this, mass-meetings, and out-door
declamations upon the Presidential question, the
drum and fife, and torch-light processions, together
with the fact that there is constantly coming South
some of the ino*t intelligent and desperate ne
groes of the border States, and we marvel that
these troubles are not more serious. Our readers
have not forgotten the outbreak in Tennessee and
perhaps other States, immediately subsequent to
the exciting canvass of 1856, where the negroes
were looking to Fremont as a general deliverer.—
We noticed the other day in one of our exchan
ges, that they have been heard to liuzzah for Lin
coln. We are no alarmists, and sleep as quietly as
mo9t persons ; but we reiterate what we have
heretofore expressed, that unless this promiscuous
public speaking and slavery agitation ceases, we
are as sure to have trouble as effect follows cause.
A wise and merciful Providence has placed four
millions of our fellow-beings under our guardian,
ship—to care for their souls and bodies, and to
govern and provide for them—for all observation
shows that they are incompetent to govern and
provide for themselvs—a fearful responsibility and
terrible retribution therefore, must fall upon those
who wickedly excite them to revolt.
In the present excited condition of the public
mind, there is much danger that the faithful and
trusty servant will suffer with the guilty. Great
care should be taken to avoid this. Whilst we
see no cause for particular apprehension in this
section, it is hardly necessary to put the public on
their guard against all vagabonds and suspicious
characters.

THE PROSPECT BRIGHTENING.
The Journal and Messenger is not a sehsation
paper. Our readers will bear us out in the asser
tion that we have never misled them by esaggera
ted statements and predictions of partisan successes.
We have sometimes been misled by the too san
guine expectations of others. When Messrs. Bell
and Everett were nominated, we felt that whilst
they were eminently qualified and deserving and
we were willing most heartily to give them oui
humble support, there was but a bare chance of
their success. Since then, however, their pros
pects have been steadily improving, and every day
brings us most cheering evidence of the growing
strength of the National Union Jacket, in every
part of the country.
We give below specimens of the feelings which
pervade the masses. We could give many others
of like character. A friend writes ns from Troup
county as follows :
“ Things look well in this section for Bell and
Everett. The Breckinridge party are evidently
losing ground, since their loaders have espoused
disunion doctrines. Toombs’ speech in Columbus
\is helping Bell much. The masses of the Demo
cracy will not stand disunion yet.”
Another writes us from Louisiana—
“ I remit you the subscription to the Journal
and Messenger ; one of the best papers published
in the Union, if half the .-occasion Democrats
would read it, our country would be safe.
Louisiana is sure for Bell and Everett. I now
believe Douglas will beat the Yaucey-Buchanan-
Slidell-Ruffin-Breekinridgw ticket.”
W£ OUGHT TO BE UNITED.
So we have often said. But our Breckinridge
friends art we onght to unite npon their tickets-
Let us see:
Being In a minority the American party of Geor
gia delayed official action until after the meeting of
the democratic national convention. Is not that
so? Well, the great Charleston convention met
and adjourned without being able to agree them” j
solves. The National Union men met at Baltimore,
and agreed upon & platform and ticket that ought
to be acceptable to every friend of the Constitu
tion. Why did not our democratic friends on re
assembling at Baltimore adopt them, and thus se
cure beyond doubt the triumph of nationalism ?
They were respectfully and cordially invited to
unite with us in this new national and patriotic
movement. This did not suit the purposes of their
selfish and aspiring leaders. And so they split
again. And now the National Union men of Geor
gia are denounced because they will not enlist un
der the sectional banner of Breckinridge and ship
in his bark canoe with its mutinous crew. We
are not so fond of seeing ourselves and the coun
try capsized as all that. When the democracy
show themselves competent to govern themselves,
we may concede to them the exclusive ability and
prerogative of taking care of the country. At
present they evidently need a guardian, and the
Union party has sprung up at precisely the right
time and under the right auspices to give them a
good one. Cheerfully, gratefully, promptly they
should accept the boon.
LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE.
We publish to-day Col. Bass’s letter of accept
ance, as Elector for this district. We do this as a
personal courtesy to our fellowtownsman, but more
especially, because of the pat.rioticiens enunciated
by the writer. Mr. Bass assumes the true position
and exhibits the right spirit. The man who is wil
ling to sacrifice country to party in this crisis is
unworthy the name of patriot.
UNSEEMLY.
Some of the ptrty pressea and leaders are in
dulging in a spirit and dialect entirely unsuited to
the times and and disgraceful to American civili
zation. If there ever was a time when calm ami
wise counsels should prevail il is the present. And
yet In raauj quarters bitter invectives and harsh
personalities are the order of the day. L nless
this is restrained it must lead to the most uuliappv
results. Indeed, personal encounters and genera l
and fatal rows are now quite frequent. Let not
political intolerance be suffered to sunder the ties*
of social brotherhood. Our free institutions rest
upon the inalienable personal right of private judge
ment. Divested of this, wc are slaves—the mere
playthings of despots.
MASS CONVENTIONS.
Our Lagrange contemporary suggests severs!
mass meetings during tliis and next month in dif
ferent parts of the State. We have long believed
the influence of these meetings pernicious—ex
pensive and embarassing, and yielding no adequate
return. We believe much greater good can be
accomplished by the county clubs, and, as our es
teemed contemporary wisely suggests, brief, rotig*
ing speeches, uttered in a kindly spirit. We have
sad recollections of mass meetings. A few laige
meetings in the 4th, 6th and 6th districts, where
the people are not accessible to railroads, and do
not often hear speakers, might accomplish good.
V*T ‘ *
ABUNDANCE.
A Wiaconain correspondents of the Ploughman
says—Never before was suoh a glorious harvest
time as the present season. The crop of wheat in
tliis single State Is estimated at 22,000,000 of
bushels, of which 15,000,000 or 16,000,000 can be
spared for the foreign market, bringing at present
rates an income to the State of $ 12,000,000. And
besides the wheat, the crops of oats and Indian
corn and other grains are abundant, and will swell
the amount of profits to an amount, it is
sufficient to free the State from its pecuniary em
barrassments.
THE EIGHT SPIRIT.
Senator Green, of Missouri, says: “ I feel con
fident that before the middle of October a condi
tion of things will occur to induce all to unite as a
band of brothers Tipon the man best calculated 19
beat back the Vandal hordes of Black Republican,
ism ; to do which, If it could only be accomplished
by such sacrifice, I would willingly vote fur li/lu r
Mr. Douglas or Mr. Bell, widely as I differ from
them on some important questions of political
policy.”

Correspondence of Journal St Messenger.
Springfield, Mass., Aug. 27th, 1860.
I have no doubt that it will be refreshing to you,
as it has been certainly to me, to understand that
Massachusetts men nre not all Republicans. I j
have within a few day* met many a Bell and Everett ,
voter, and the spirit in which they denounce sec
tionalism and hope (not without reason) for anew
order of things in the State as well as in the Na
tion augurs well for the future of our party.
I was present at a Bell and Everett meeting in
W estfield Friday night, (24th inst.) of which I
propose to give you an account. Westfield is a
very pretty town of six or seven thousand inhabi
tants, about ten miles west of Springfield, on the
line of the Western Rail Road.
I reached the Hotel at seven o'clock in the eve
ning, ar.d found preparations in progress for rais
ing a Bell and Everett flag. Pretty soon the
band 3truck up the “Star Spangled Banner,” and
the stars and stripes, bearing on their folds the
honored names of our nominees, sw uug grandly to
the breeze. Three cheers and a “tiger” from the
National Union men on the ground, welcomed the
banner to its place. Before the speakers went
over to the Hall I inet them in the Hotel and was
kindly introduced to them by a Springfield Bell
nnd Everett man. They greeted me cordially as a
member of the Rational Uuion Club of New York,
and expressed their great satisfaction with the
measures which have been recently adopted to de
feat Lincoln in that State. These gentlemen were
Gen. Geo. C. Devereaux, of Salem, and the Hon.
James M. Howe, and Hon. —— Holmes, of Bos
ton. I found the Hall, (which has a capacity of
seven hundred,) completely filled. The audience
though largely composed of voters, numbered not
ta few ladies. The Hon. William G. Bates, of
Westfield, presided, and after the singing of the
“ Ftar Spangled Banner,” opened the meeting with
a few free remarks. The Hon. James M. Howe
I was then introdneed. He sketched the downward
progress of politics during the last few years, no
ticing particularly the various phases of the Free
Foil elements, and then proceeded to speak of the
Republican candidates as compared with our own.
It would have done a Southern Whig good to hear
John Bell’s public career so ably presented before
the Westfield audience. His bold adherence to
right and justice throughout his whole course gave
the speaker opportunity to express the highest
commendation of our candidate. It was only nec
essary to mention the name of Edward Everett, for
Massachusetts people all know his fitness for office.
Gen. Devereaux was the next speaker. Earnest
and emphatic in his manner, and dignified and
sober in his discussion of principles, the General
was well fitted to impress his hearers with the
importance of what he said. His argument was
mainly addressed to the consciences of those Re
publicans who seem to regard their praty as en
gaged in a moral reform. It was a position of
great good sense,(and enabled the bravely to con
trovert this false idea of the speaker morality not
less than the philanthropy of slavery agitation.
In reference to the question of disunion, Gen.
Devereaux asked very pertinently what our Uuion
consisted in, and after saying that evidently the
essential element of was peace anti good feeliDg,
he put the question broadly whether the course of
the Republican leaders was calculated to strength
en the bonds of fraternal regard. In closing, the
speaker referred eloquently to the present es
tranged attitude of Massachusetts and Virginia, as
contrasted with the time of the Revolution, when
the old Dominion sent her rangers to the Boston
rendezvous in the opening of the war, and the old
Bay State in turn was nobly represented at York
town. This reference to the events of ’<6 stirred
up a tremendous enthusiasm that showed the
popular heart to be all right.
The last speaker, the Hon. - Holmes, made a
fitting peroration to this telling Union discourse.
In a brief address of not more than half an hour
he kept his audience full of enthusiasm, and brought
forcibly to their attention the sectionalism and
abolitionism of the Republican platform.
The meeting then adjourned with three cheers
for Bell and Everett. It is proper for me to state
that all of those present at the meeting were not
Bell and Everett men, but it is encouraging when
out of nine hundred voters seven hundred can be
collected to hear a dispassionate review of the
questions at issue.
I visited next morning the rooms of the Bell and
Everett Club in Westfield. The tables are covered
with newspapers and campaign documents, while
fitting devices ornament the walls. Over the
President’s chair hangs a large photograph of
John Bell, and on one side of the room is the fol
lowing legend : —“ John Bell, a State Senator at
21, Congressman at SO, Speaker of the House at
37, Secretary of Hr at 44, L r . S. Senator at 50.
Never nmltn rework thf people.” On the
opposite wall is this brief tribute to John Bell’s
associate —Edward Everett, the Scholar and
St ate smaii.”
I have returned from Westfield greatly encour
aged to believe that with such evidences of a con
servative spirit the reign of aectionalism shall not
much longer tarnish the fair fame of Massachusetts.
This city is one of the Republican strongholds,
but there are some influential citizens who belong
to our party, and there are very many Democrats
here also. It is astonishing to what an extent the
“irrepressible conflict” idea has possession of peo
ple’s minds all through this region. One can get
no foothold to argue upon because of this. The
majority of Republican voters (as far as my obser
vation goes,) actually believe that this country
must eventually either be all free or all slave terri
tory. Oh that Massachusetts had now a Daniel
Webster to counteract this influence and expose
(as no one but a Webster could with the required
clearnsss,) this mischievous sophism!
But the leaven of conservative Union sentiment
is working, and thongh here it may be long before
the whole lump is leavened, yet men of information
m this State believe the time will come. An un
dercurrent of dissatisfaction with Sumner’s extreme
views has set in, and already Republican journals
in Massachusetts begin to dispraise their vaunted
leaders. The effect of the recent Southern elec
tion is plainly apparent, and thinking men are go
ing to show their approval of this anti-secession
movement.
These elections will do as much as anything can
to root out the “irrepressible conflict” idea, for
they indicate the poverty of the extreme Southern
radical element in our politics, and it caDnot but
follow that the extremists here will also suffer from
the conservative opposition that will be aroused
against them.
There is not likely to be a coalition against the
Republicans in this State on the Presidential vote
Our friends think it better (inasmuch as the New
York coalition insures the defeat of Lincoln,) to
keep themselves free from alliances. It is believed
that Lincoln’s vote in Massachusetts will fall seve
ral thousands short of Fremont’s 1n 1856. The
anti-naturalization plank in the Chicago platform
and Sumners speeches arc too much for many old
Whigs. I have good authority to state that Presi
dent Felton, of ilavard University, Judge Parker,
of the Law School at Cambridge, and President
Stearns, of Amherst College, are in favor of Bell
and Everett. These are men whose influence is
not slight. As you will have noticed, the measures
have been finally concluded in New York State,
which are most likely to defeat Lincoln there.—
Naturally enough the Tribune, Dost et id otnue
genus are greatly irritated. Judge Longstreet de
serves a public reception on his return home.

Mr. lias** Letter of Acceptance.
Macon, Aug. 20, 1860.
Gentlemen : Your favor of the 17tli inst. has been
received, in which you say that “at a convention
of the National Democracy of this State, held in
MBledgeville on the 14th inst., you were unam
mousley selected as the elector of the Third Con
gressional District, for Douglas and Johnson,” and
ask my acceptance of the same.
Entertaining such a distinction, at such a crisis
in the history of our country as the present, an
honor of no ordinary character, although, at much
personal inconvenience and sacrifice, I will accept
the position assigned me on the following condi
tions :
Believing Douglas and Johnson to be the only
regular nominees of the National Democracy, and
believing them to be pre-eminently good and true
meu, and well qualified for the distinguished posi
tions for which they have been nominated, and ace
entitled to and should receive the support of all
good and true Democrats, and shall most certainly
receive my individual vote, yet, should I be honor
ed with the confidence of my native State, as one
of her electors, 1 would claim and exercise the
privilege of casting my vote, as such, for either
Douglas, Bell, or Breckinridge, as, in my opinion,
would most effectually defeat the election of Lincoln.
This much, I think, true patriotism requires of eve
ry man, in view of the threatening aspects of the
times. Should this position on my part meet the
approval of those who placed me in nomination, I
will endeavor to serve them to the best of my hum
ble ability; otherwise, lam more than willing that
my place on the ticket shall be filled by the selec
tion of another.
Hoping that the impending crisis which threatens
the peace and happiness, of our beloved country
may be averted by the patriotic prudence of those
who have been the happy beuefieiaries of her
innumerable and countless blessings, I am gentle,
men, with the assurance of personal regard and
esteem,
. Most respectfully, your ob’t serv’t,
-V. Bass.

BELL PEARS.
By some very unaccountacle cause, the Bell pears,
this year, are much larger than we remember to
have noticed them in previous years. They are fi
ner, and taste and smell more luscious. Pomolo
gists may attribute the result to favorable seasons,
or to some peculiar electric cause, which prevails
at this time. We do not pretend to determine.
The finest specimen of the Bell pear we have
seen, we noticed yesterdey. It was raised on a
