Singular Recognition.—A AVashington corres
pondent of the N. V. Herald, under date of tlie
mliinst., relates the following; “Senor Robles,
(the Mexican Minister,) Gen. James Shields and
several other distinguished gentlemen, were lately
seated around a dinner table in this city. The
wine having flowed pretty freely, Gen. Shields
was called up and gave in glowing colors the inci
dents immediately connected with his being
wounded with a grape shot in the Mexican war.
11c closed by saying be could never forget the ap
pearance of the officer who gave the command to
fire. He was the last object be saw before falling,
and be should recognize him if he should ever see 1
him again. Senor Rubles, w ho had listened with
intense interest at the recital, slowly rose from his
chair and asked him if he recognized in him that
officer; ‘for,’ said lie,-‘J gave the command to fire.'
The effect of this announcement can be better im
agined than described. Since then the gallant
hero of Chepultepec and Gen. Robles have been
particular friends.”
Blue Ridge Tunnel Completed.—A note dated the
17th, from Col Crozet, the Chief Engineer on the
Blue Ridge railroad, to the editor of the Charlottes
ville Jeffersonian, states that the grading of the
tunnel is completed, and the track through the
tunnel is now being laid. This will he a work of
but a few days, and the ears may then he run
through us soon as the president and directors of
the Central Railroad Company shall think proper
to do so.
’Tis the Stir Spangled Banner, oh, long may it wave,
O’erthe Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave.’
BOl'GHTO.V VISBET & BARNES, State Printers.
Tuesday Morning. October 13,1857.
Iticrlion in Baldwin.
Below we give the result in this county. Know
Nothings in italics:
B. II. Hilt 397, J. E. Brown 364.
Joshua Hill 381, L. Stephens 345.
J. If. A Sanford 336, L. H. Briscoe 335.
A. II. Kenan 357, Charles Bonner 293.
Declination of Cru'l Sanford.
It will be seen by reference to a letter of Gen'l
Sanford, published in this paper, that he declines
as the Senator elect, from the county of Baldwin,
and gives his reasons for so doiug.
AA'e are anxious now to see who will be brought
forward by the Know Nothing Party as a candi
date for Senator. Heretofore, they have said that
nobody but a competent man should be elected to
represent the interests of the people of this city
and county. AA’ill they nominate such a man !
That’s the question. AVill they nominate a man
who will truly and ably represent us, if elected,
or will they put up a man who, if elected, will be
a cypher, a man of straw, in the Senate. AA’e be
lieve the Democracy will run an able and efficient
man—let the Know Nothing Party bring out such
a man; then it matters but little who is elected,
so far as our city and county interests are con
cerned. By all means, do not give us a yes and
no man.
It is very generally believed that our friend Col.
Briscoe, is legally elected Senator of Baldwin co.,
and he exhibits no little magnanimity and forbear
ance in pursuing the course he has.
The KcmiII.
AVe give to-day a column of figures, which
we believe to be nearly correct, showing the votes
of such counties as we have been able to collect.
AVe have reported majorities in many other coun
ties, but we prefer to wait for the official vote.—
Enough, however, has been received to enable us
to make the following statement with much cer
tainty. Judge Brown's majority over Hill, for
Governor, will be near ten thousand. It may go
above that estimate, or may fall short, a few hun-! recommendul
dreds. nor will it exceed eleven thousand majority.
In the 1st District, Col. Seward is no doubt
elected by 4 or 500 majority over both Gaulden
and Bartow.
In the 2d District, Judge Crawford beats Mr.
Elam over 1490 votes.
In the 3d Mr. Trippe’s majority over Col. Bailey
is about 400.
In the 4th District, Col. Gartrell beats Mi. Tid
well over a thousand votes.
In the 5th District, we have not received enough
returns to make a close estimate, but we think
Judge Wright’s majority will bo near 3000.
In the 6th District, Judge Jackson’s majority
will be over 2900.
In the 7th District, Mr. Hill beats Mr. L. Ste
phens about 275 votes.
In the 8th District, the majority of Hon. A. II.
Stephens over Mr. T. AA r . Miller, is 1257.
The Democratic majority in the Legislature is so
large, wo won’t take the trouble to count it.
Cup). t'oUluitt.
The election of Capt. Peyton II. Colquitt in the
strong Know Nothingjcounty of Muscogee, is a just
tribute to the worth of the man, and speaks well
for the intelligence of his constituents. With a
majority of three hundred against him, he beats a
clever old gentleman, Mr. AA'ales. two totes! Such a
result is as brilliant as it was unexpected. Hereaf
ter let noue oflhe young democracy despair. They
have an example before them worthy of emulation.
AA'e don't despair now, of Old Laurens and Troup.
These Malakoffs of the enemy may yet be carried
by some bold and gallant leader of young democ
racy. By the by, speaking of young democrats—
many of the members of the next Legislature are
young men, who are for the first time stepping in
to the arena of public lif". AA’e wish them all a
full fruition of their fondest and highest aspirations-
California Election.
By late arrivals from San Francisco we learn
that the Democracy have been completely tri
umphant iu the late election in California. John
B. Weller, the Democratic candidate for Governor,
it is said, has beat Stanley, the Black Republican
candidate between twenty and thirty thousand,
and J. AV. Manderville, Democratic candidate for
Comptroller, is elected by 30,900 majority; and
a large Democratic majority is elected in both
branches of the Legislature.
The InleElection and it* Result*.
T he Southern Recorder of last week announced
that ‘‘the election of B. H. Hill would be a rebuke
to the Democracy, well deserved and well timed.”
AVell, B. H. Hill is not elected, but lie and his party
are overwhelmingly defeated. AATio now is rebuked,
surely not the Democratic party, nor the Presi
dent, but their enemies. The Know Nothings
and their allies have been rebuked. This pie bald
party or faction, made up of shreds and patches
and scraps from all parties, and all factions, never
depended upon the honesty of their princi
ples for victory. They knew if they trusted to
their principles for victory, they would be building
upon a rotten foundation. Therefore, in the con
test we have just ptissed through iu Georgia, the
Know Nothings have kept their principles as
much as possible out of sight, and have relied en
tirely for victory upon creating divisions in the
ranks of the Democracy. In their attempts to di
vide and conquer, they have been successful in a
few localities, but they have not been able to de
range or to jostle the great Democratic column.
By dividing the Democracy', they have been able
to elect Know Nothings to the Legislature in a
few counties, and have probably elected two
members to Congress, but what good will this do
the party? Not a particle. It is true they may
rejoice over the defeat of two gallant Democratic
Candidates for Congress, but iu doing this, they
must feel and know that tliey are rejoicing with
the Black Republicans. AA’ith the two from
Georgia the K N’s properly will have eight mem
bers iu the next Congress, viz. two from Kentucky,
three from Tennessee, one from North Carolina
and two from Georgia. If tlwy join the Black Re-
publicans, they still will be in a minority', and if
tliey keep aloof from both parties, they will not be
able to effect anything, either for their country or
their party. But if the election of B. H. Hill
would have been a rebuke of the Democracy, his
defeat is a well merited and well timed endorse
ment of the L>emocracy by the people. The De
mocracy were willing to accept the terms and
abide the issue made by our opponents. Those
Democrats who had become dissatisfied with their
party, and have gone over and joined the enemy
have been defeated with them; these men have re
ceived a well merited and well timed rebuke
which they will long remember. No combination
formed against tlie Democracy can long succeed;
and no weapons forged for the destruction of that
party have prospered. It has and will continue
to triumph over all its foes, whether they light
under the Black Republican, or the Know Nothing
line-. AA’e predict this is the last battle our oppo
nents in Georgia will ever fight under their present
name. It is associated with defeat, disaster and
disgrace, and they will throw it aside like a cast
off garment. Next winter we may look for a new
programme, a new name and new leaders; but it
will be the same old party in a new uniform.—
They will as usual, profess to be very pure and very
honest, they will march under a now banner, and
make war upon the Democracy w ith new weapons,
but they will be defeated. At first they may de
ceive a few Mr. Greens, but the people will soon
find them out and expose their new devices, as
easily and as effectually as they discovered and
exposed their know Nothing tricks.

The Know Nothing’s have been delighted with

their pressses have published them with high
commendation, during the canvass in this State.—
But Kansas is a long way off, and ‘‘Uncle Ben”
has been negotiating in a quarter where his Geor
gia Know-Nothing friends least expected. “Un
cle Ben” was “cheek byjowl” w ith that notorious
abolitionist JOHN AV. GEARY, former Governor
of Kansas. Let the people read the follow ing ar
ticle from the “National Democrat” a paper pub-
l.shed at Locomptcn in Kansas. The w riter has

light a little private history that must prove re
freshing to his Georgia brethren. Is it any won

Kansas? Read and see:
Hr. Benjamin Brandy,
This gentleman writes a letter to the Cassville
(Ga.) Siaudanl, dated Fort Scott, K. T., Aug. 21st,
1857, iu which he introduces a most doleful ac
count of the wicked doings of the National Demo
cratic Administration, Gov. AValker, and tlie fede
ral office holders generally, in Kansas. He says
that “it is no longer a question of doubt as to the
National Democratic Administration having de
termined to make Kansas a Free State.” He makes
this charge in the face ot the fact that tlie Admin
istration, in good faith, and under the principles of
the Kansas-Nebraska act—a Democratic measure
avowed their determination to protect the bona
tide inhabitants of Kansas to shape their own in
stitutions, according to the wish of the majority,
let the result be the making of a Froe State or a
Slave State. He charges that President Buchan
an and Gov. AA’alker desire that tlie Constitution
should be submitted to the ratifying vote of
all transient persons in the Territory, “irrespective
of the time or circumstances of their ingress;’’
whilst Gov. AA’alker has declared his intention to
protect only such persons as are declared bona
fide inhabitants by the provisions of the Constitu
tion.
“Uncle Ben,’’as the editor facetiously calls his
Fort Scott correspondent, has lost alt confidence in
the National Democratic party. Jl wmare rightly
informed this gentlemen lias been for tlie last fifty
years, a firm, consistently zealous opponent of the
Democratic party, in all its measures, acts and
men, and we are also advised that at the last Jan
uary Convention in this place, when all the con
servative men of the Territory entered into the or
ganization of the National Democratic party, Mr.
Brantly, in keeping with his past unreasonable
opposition to this great party, entered his protest
against being dragged into the Democratic party and
gave notice that he still was a Whig. Yet “Uncle
Bi n” writes to a Democratic paper in Georgia, and
denounces the Democratic party in Kansas. AA'ili
he, in his next epistle, inform the Democracy of
Georgia, that he (Ben Brantly) was the most elo
quent, zealous, able and successful champion of
Gov. Jno. If. Geary, on the floors of the last Legis
lature, when that functionary' was laboring to abo-
lilionize the Democratic party, and hand over Kan
sas to the Republican party?
AA'ill he inform his Georgia friends that he (the
said Benj. Brantly,) visited Washington last win
try as an applicant for au office from this same
wicked National Democratic Administration, not
withstanding, his refusal to enter its ranks? AVill
he inform his friends that tlie main support he
had for flic office which he sought, was a letter of
from Governor Geary! These facts
would go to show that Mr. Brantly, though pro
testing against being a National Democrat, was
willing to receive an office from a National Demo
cratic Administration. They will go to show that
whilst li<- (Mr. B.) takes sides with Gov. Geary, the
most obnoxious man to Southern men in Kansas,
turns up in Georgia, on the other side of the ques
tion. Will Mr. Brantly admit, which is the fact
that,—although Democratic office holders were
corrupt, be was willing to become one of the facile
class? This gentlemen has shown himself very
consistent and disinterested, mid must bo eventual
ly happy under the beliel that his “honest policy”
will thrive.

The children of Miss Adams' school gave a vocal
Concert on Wednesday evening. The occasion call
ed together a large audience. The exercises of the
evening were entertaining and reflected much Credit
upon the children and their worthy Instructress,
Miss Kate Adams. It was surprising to see the
little ones appear and perform their allotted parts
so correctly and with so much confidence. It
speaks well for the energy and proficiency of their
Teacher. We were amused aud entertained by
the little ones, and speak, in return, a good word
for their performance, as an act of gratitude and
justice.
It was nnfortuaate that the room was small and
tlie ceiling so low. Many persons could not gain
entrance, and many of those who got in had to
stand up all the time, while the sweet voices of the
children suffered from tlie iuadaptation of the Hall
to the purposes for which it was used. AVe hope
at ano'hcr time a more spacious Hall will be select

why the Know Nothiug Party of Savannah will

at stake.” And further says, that a year lienee

That must be a comfortable reflection to the Know

The grertest natural ornament to the “human

other phrenological organs with borrowed locks.
He who should discover a mode of preveniin
the hair from showing the inroads of envious Time

it could be restored when falling off or turning

’J he following timely and dispassionate sugges
tions appear in the Pennsy lvanian of last AVednes-
day’s issue:
“The issuing of the governor’s proclamation
convening the legislature at Harrisburg, on the
6fii of October, for the purpose of considering and
adopting such measures of relief as the present
financial condition of our city and State may
require, has naturally and properly directed public
attention to an examination of the whole subject of
our banking system, with a view of ascertaining,
if possible, what guards and checks can be engraft
ed upon it sufficient in strength and efficiency to
prevent the periodica! reccurrence of such scenes
of trouble arid distress as those through which the
commercial community are now passing. The first
suspension of specie payments by our banks, which
occurred after the war of 1812, was attributed to
prostration of business and credit consequent upon
that conflict. The suspension of 1837 was charged
upon the policy pursued by President Jackson
against the Bank of the United States. It is not
our purpose at the present time to discuss the
truthfulness and sufficiency of the causes set forth
as a reason why the banks were compelled to
suspend specie payments at the times mentioned.
The point to which public attention should be
calmly and dispassionately directed in the present
crisis, is, that tlie existing suspension has taken
place when all the elements of national wealth are
abundant, when the country is at peace with all
the world, when the banks are acting under a law
of their own seeking, aud when the people are

Tennessee.—The Legislature of Tennessee met
at Nashville yesterday. Two United States Sena

The Wisdom of Democratic Measures.—In the
course of a pointed and well written article on the
wisdom of the democratic measures, tlie New
Haven Register remarks:
“In the present financial crisis the whole coun
try turns to it as the pillar of our salvation. For
merly, when the government made its depositoB in
the banks, and those banks traded on the money
thus deposited with them, or loaned it to their
customers, every disbursement from the United
States treasury added to the financial pressure, by
requiring the banks to demand payment from their
customers to enable them to meet the treasury
drafts. But now every disbursement lets loose
the golden stream from the treasury itself, and the
banks and their customers feel the relief when
most needed. The operations of the treasury in
the present crisis, under the advice and superin
tendence of Secretary Cobb, are praised every
where by all business men, irrespective of party or
creed; and the wisdom of the independent treasury
system is acknowledged everywhere, and by none
more heartily than those who twenty years ago
would have compassed sea and land to have had it
trampled in the dust.
“Men of the present day think there never was
a measure so deeply execrated as the Kansas-Ne-
braska bill; when the truth is, that that honest bill

its strongest aspect, and the community has had
time to deliberate upon and weigh the facts pre
sented, the amount of evidence is sufficient to
justify wise, safe, and conservative men in taking
an advance step towards an unmixed currency,
there should be no hesitation in adopting such a
line of policy as will gradually emancipate trade
from the self-imposed fetters by which it is now
shackled.
“AVe know and fed the responsibility of such a
step, and lienee recommend coolness and caution.
But when a people are afraid to look disasters in
the face and apply whatever remedy is necessary,
there is no hope for the future. That some reform
of our banking system is absolutely necessary, all
admit. The extent of the remedial measures is
the only point in debate at present. It is not
denied that whatever policy is best calculated to
throw into active circulation, and keep in that
condition, the largest amount of gold and silver,
coin, is the one that should be adopted. That
nation or people who produce and sell in the
nearest approximation to a specie basis can at all
times command aud hold the markets of the world;
for the reason that they produce cheaper. The
inevitable effects of a paper currency are to inflate
the prices of all commodities, to bloat trade: man
ufactures, and commerce, and thus render the
nation which uses this character of circulating
medium subject to all kinds of financial revulsions
and disasters. The experience of all nations
furnishes the basis for this assertion. When,there
fore, a change iu our hanking system is proposed,
it would be well to look most attentively at those
suggested reforms which tend to the gradual with
drawal of so much of the paper currency of our
city and State as can be removed without creating
a vacuum too large to be immediately filled by the
precious metals. That such a reform can be per
fected no one will deny. The entire success of
the sub-treasury system, and the substitution of
gold and silver as a national currency, is a signi
ficant fact that should not be overlooked by those
who will be called upon to deliberate with reference
to this important issue.
“In advance of the meeting of the legislature we
invito tlie attention of all classes of our citizens to
this subject. No man is justified in remaining
wedded to old systems when experience is daily
pouring a flood of new and unanswerable facts
upon his pathway. There is no feeling in the
community antagonistic to the banks at this crisis.
On the contrary, all seem disposed to treat with
leniency, and consideration even those institu
tions whose legal existence depends upon patience
and forbearance. AA’e have no doubt the action
of the legislature will partake largely of this same
spirit. Bat it would be a criminal act to take
advantage of the patient disposition manifested by
our suffering business community, and allow the
occasion to pass without inaugurating some of the
many reforms proposed by those of our citizens
whose standing and position iu the community
entitle their opinions aud suggestions to great
respect and consideration. Let there be a full
ana frank interchange of opinions upon this mat
ter, and then we shall all be prepared to look at
whatever measures may be presented to the legis
lature in a more intelligent light.
The Philadelphia Argus is even more emphatic
than the Pennsylvanian in its opposition to the
hanks and the banking system of Pennsylvania.
After all the enormous losses which the people of
that State have suffered by bank frauds and bank
mismanagement—to say nothing of their present
embarrassments from the same causes—we are not
surprised to see the following in that journal:
“It will be seen by a notice in another column
that the democratic executive committee has called
a public meeting, to be held in Independence
Square on Monday evening to oppose the legaliz
ing of tlie violations ofiaw by the banks which
have suspended and forfeited their charters. All
honor to the noble men who have thus determined
to do their duty to the democracy at this crisis in
our monetary affairs!
