Since the opening of the canvass in Georgia,
Mr. Hill has pursued towards Judge Brawn a
course marked by unfairness and discourtesy, to
sey the least of it. Again and again Judge Brown
has corrected Mr. Hill's misrepresentations. Ben
nil! is not to be rel.ed on. He is n shuffling, low

fair minded ruen will put upon him. Judge Brown

To llic Editor of thr. Constitutionalist:
Dear Sin I am informed upon good authorirv,
that B. H. Hill, my oppeuent, in a late speech de
livered in New nan, stated in substance, that dur
ing my stay at the Commencement at Athens, there
was a caucus of the Southern Eights, and of the
I mini or Cobb wing of rh<- Democratic party, as
be called it, the object of which was to settle upon
■bo policy on which the canvass should be conduct
ed on my part relative to certain questions he had
propounded to me at Newnan. Carrollton and oth
er places; and that there was a division of senti-
mei,t as to whether I should answer the questions,
aud that the nou-eommittal policy was finally deter
mined on, as he was informed*by a gentleman who
was in said meeting. I pronounce the statement a
[tXMIirUXtCAI'E'D.]
A True Answer.
Iti a recent letter from an up-conntry correspon
dent to a middte-Georgiac, the following question
was propounded to the latter:
“How does Ben Hill go with your section for
Governor, he seems to take up here much better
than any candidate ever run on the Whig or no-
nothing Ticket,'' let me hear from you.
The Answer.—The complexiou ol our region is
more Brown than Hil'y, though we live in quite
a broken country. We expect to be able by the
first Monday in October next to bring things to a
level by taking the HiUs down.

and the result is a fine specimen of chrvstalized

Dr. Lee thinks that from on" to two thousand
pounds of sugar can be produced to the acre, on
Georgia land, of moderate richness. The ric hest
lands are not, ha thinks, best adapted to the cul
ture of the cane. The specimens of syrup noticed

A Convention met in Kansas a few days ago. to
frame a Constitution, and adjourned over to the
2td Monday in October. That Contention is in
favor of allowing negro slavery in Kansas, and
will no doubt authorize it in the Constitution tbey
frame. Now, who conferred on the people of j kas P restn 'cd your rights and your honor unsul-
' away the scabbard! Have you put on the armor
of faith and thrown to the breeze the flag of old
Democracy? Are you ready? Are there any
Democrats slumbering at their posts? If there
are let them wake up, for the Philistines com-
eth. The old Knight with his dark lantern,
goeth about among the people when the day is
gone—look out for him. Democrats to your posts!
Let every man do his duty. Let no Democrat
who desires the triumph and vindication ut his
principles, stay at home next Monday. Ben Ilill
dtfies yon to meet him—will you hesitate? No!
Then, to your Posts! One more week: devote that
time to your good old Party. That Party which

proper ?
The Democratic Party.
Who voted against giving the people of Kansas
tii. pun or to hold Slaves ?
BENJAMIN H. 1IILL. He voted for Millard
Fillmore for President, and Fillmore declared him-
self opposed to the legislation hy which Kansas
was opened to the slaveholder and Lis property.
Eecollett that, voters of Georgia.
Who says he would have voted against the Kan-
hill, if ho had been in Congress at the time it
was pass' d ?
JOSHUA HILL.
The Know Nothing party have made Kansas and
i s at.airs their great issue in the campaign now
about to close. They have nominated for Gover
nor. and for Congress, men who have all the time
opposed the principles of the Kansas lull, and now,
an impudence and effrontery unparalleled,
ied—that Party, which a late distinguished mem'
her ofthe Know Nothing Party, said, is the “only
party the troubles of the times have left to honest
men”! Stand by it, now that it is assailed. Bear
aloft its glorious banner in the tight next Monday,
and victory, as it has so often done, will crown
your labors. Once more, Democrats, we repeat,
stand by yonr arms, the argument is exhausted.

One of the editors ofthis paper heard Col. Joshua
Hill address the citizens of Putnam county on last
Tuesday. Col. Hill has an easy and pleasant ad

his party would have made under the circum

rather slim auditory to speak to. Col. Hill went
over pretty much the old track—opposition to
foreigners and great anxiety for the fate of Kansas

is the man Ben Hill seeks to denounce in Georgia.

said, very kindly but firmly, Capt. Herndon told
her that no man could leave the steamer until all
the women bad gone. Just before she went down
into the boat her husband took her by the hand
and bade her goo-1 bye. Ho told her tha* he would
try and meet her again, hut that perhaps he would
not be able. She never saw him again. She un
derstood that he was lost on the raft, about eleven
o'clock at night.

The last. Hour of the Central America—The bail
ing continued till 7 o’eioeK, when the water had
reached th - upper saloon deck, and then the work
of getting out the water ceased—no vessel or boat
in sight. About ten minu-es before the ship went
down, rockets were tired from both wheel houses,
in the usual way of indicating the sinking condi
tion of a ship, and the moment of terror arrived.
At 8 o’clock, every person got what he could to
save himself. Two waves swept entirely over the
steamer, wild shrieks of despair burst from the
lips of the hopei'-ss crowd that thronged the decks;
the sad-yawned, and the floating castle, with many
a struggling being, went down in the fearful
vortex,
“In one vast burial blent.”
Many, however, succeeded in the effort to keep
afloat, but they soon drifted apart, and were com
pelled to contend alone with the heavily roiling
surges that threatened every moment to overcome
them.
Capt. Herndon remained on board to the last,
doing what he could to save the ship and the pas
sengers, and went down with the rest beneath the
waves.

The Democratic Meeting Last Light.
The court room of the City Ilall was crowded
last evening hy the voters of Richmond, anxious
to see. and to hear the Democratic candidate for
the office of Governor. Before Judge Brown’s
appearance, the meeting was organized by the
Domination of George w. Lamar. Esq., as chair
man, and Thadens Oakman, as secretary; and on
motion of James M. Smvlhe, Esq., the following
committee—James M. Smythe, I. P. Garvin, A.
Philip, W. H. Howard, Berrien Rachels, L. I)
Lallerstedt, and J. B. Weems—was appointed by
the Chair to report the name of a suitable candi
date ofthe Democratic party for the Senate. This
committee having retired for a few moments from
the Hall, returned and reported through their
chairman. Mr. sunythe, the name of G. W. Lamar.
The announcement of this selection was received
with enthusiastic cheers by the assembled multi
tude, and Mr. Lamar, in Ins place as chairman of
the meeting rose, and in a few appropriate re
marks accepted the nomination tendered. Imme
diately afterwards, Judge Brown made his ap
pearance , and being introduced by the chairman,
proceeded with Ills address. This occupied two
hours in its delivery. It was a close, compact
and c- nvincing argument, and one of the most
candid and conciliatory political addresses to
which we have ever had the pleasure of listening.
Many members of the American party were pres
ent during its delivery, gave it a respectful and
attentive hearing, and went away doubtless better
pleased than they would be willing this morning
to confess. We shall give the substance of Judge
Brown’s admirable speech in our next issue, de
siring that all our readers may know his position
upon every important question of the canvass, tor
he has a position, aud states it so plainly aud so
frankly, that, no one who hears him speak can mis
understand him, or ignorantly misrepresent him.
After the conclusion of Judge Brown’s address,

for the representative branch of the General As
The Shreveport Gazette, of the 29th ult., speak
ing of the cotton crop says:
So far as the stalk is concerned, it never looked
more promising, but the bolls are wanting—and
besides, the excessive rains of late, have caused
the lower halls, or “first crop.’, to rot.
Nobody is yet picking, and there is scarcely any
cot:on open. This will shorten the picking season
three or four weeks—a very serious matter, ami
one that will tell heavily when the aggregate of
hales is made at the end of the year.
Democratic Meeting Last Might.—One of the
larzest assemblages of citizens we have ever seen
at a political meeting in Savannah, were present
in St. Andrew’s Hall last night to hear the address I J. A. EVE, M. D.
of Hon. Robert Toombs. For nearly two hours ; Phvsiologv and
the distinguished speaker held his audience in
wrapt attention, the intensity of which was only
interrupted by the frequent hursts of applause
elicited by the eloquence of his language or the
force of his arguments. We have neither time nor

' and entertained the meet- l )roli!ie variety, and we believe has never been
upon him, came forward
ing with a short but telling speech, in which he
showed that the American candidates in this coun
ty had a different platform, and raised different
issues in almost every militia district in it, just as
the party to which they belong has a different plat
form and a different policy in almost every con
gressional district in the State.
Judge Brown has made an exceedingly favora- i
ble impression in this city, not only with Demo-;
crats, hut with Americans; and with a full ticket
in the field for the legislator!', upon which the par
ty is cordially united, we shall poll a vote in Octo
ber which will convince all that the Democracy of
Richmond never can be dispirited. It has resisted
the American Order when it was a power to be
dreaded in the State and in the nation, and it will
do its part, now that this Order is making its
death struggle in this State, in dealing the blow
which shall effectually and forever “kill it off.”

The Crop* in Texas.
The condition and prospect of the growing crops
have not changed materially since onr last. Our
reports, designed as tiiey are to be nearly complete
in themselves involve necessarily a certain amount
of repetition from week to week. This, however,
wc are satisfied will not be regarded by the reader.
In the extreme North of Ri d river country, the
crop was, up to a few weeks ago, promising better
than usual, and the hopes of tlte planter embraced
the largest cron ever raised there ; hut since then,
heavy rains have flooded the fields and materially
injured the prospect. The forms and squares have
.hiten shedding badly, and it is feared, as this mis
fortune has faileu just in the best of the season, it
will interfere materially with the product. Gener
ally, however, in th* valley of the Trinity, and
East of there, good crops aro being harvested.
The picking is going on finely, and all the available
force of :tie plantations is engaged in securing the
staple. In the valley of the Brazos, the prospect
is no better than heretofore. - While on some plan
tations good crops are being made, from half to
three-quarters

The Augusta Chronicle of yesterday says: The

Loss of the Steamer Norfolk.—We reg.ec to state
that this steamer, Capt. Kelly, which left Phila
delphia for this city on Saturday last, was lost,
together with the entire cargo, in the heavy gale
of Sunday last. Information was received here
yesterday that none of the crew were lost, and the
inference is that the passengers are also saved.

we regret to state, was not insured.
We learn there was no insurance on the boat.
The particulars of this disaster will be probably re
ceived to-day.—Norfolk. Argus Sept. 17.
High Price fur Negroes.—We have often heard
that a thing was worth its weight in silver, but
did not think we would ever see negroes sell for
such a price. A few days since a gentleman of this
p'tue paid $1,290 apiece for five negro girls,
from twelve to fifteen years of age. Reckoning
silver at twelve ounces to the pound, which is Troy
weight, the negroes, allowing them a hundred
pounds weight each, costjust their weight in sil
ver.

Touching Scene.—When the survivors of the

the parlors ofthe National Hotel at Norfolk which
had been thrown open for their reception, a scene
favorite of the planters near the toasU There 0 f anguish and distress was presented, which
-w"* *" 1 A| L " 1 “ " moved the stoutest heart, and bedewed every eve
with tears. The ladi-s would cast a hurried
glance around the room, aud with the smothered
exclamation of “my husband, (or son, or brother,)
is not saved,” would sink helpless to the floor.
The scene was disfressmg in the extreme, and
beggars all description. Many citizens were
present, and deeply affected, as the tears which
stole down their cheeks too plainly attested.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad has an equip
ment of 3,500 freight cars, aud 280 first class loco

Judge Hydcnfeldt Lost.—Among the passengers
lost on hoard the ill-fated Central America, was
Judge S Hydenfeldt, of the Supreme court ofCal-
iforuia, well known to many of our citizens as a
man of ability and distinction, having resided for
many years in the neighboring county of Russell,
in Alabama. His name appears among the list
of passengers, aud as we have no account of his
having been saved, we of coarse must conclude
he was lost.—Columbus Sun.

DYSPEPSIA CURED.
From Josei'h Hoxie, Esq., N. Y. City.
New York, July 31.
Gcnih men: Having suffered many years from re

■mst exhausted my hopes of being able to obtain any
neruiancnt relief I was induced to have recourse to
die Oxygenated Bitters, prepared by Dr. George B.
t Jreen, for which you arc agents. It gives me great
pleasure to say, that its effect upon me lias been highly
beneficial, eradicating the disease, and restoring me. to
pood health; and I sincerely hope that all who may be
suffering from that dreadful disease, will be induced t<
give the medicine a trial, fully believing they will not
be disappointed in the result
