The Editor of ()ie Republican complains that
we read only such portions of his editorials as
suits our purpose, and further says that he answer-
ed and er.plaiued all- of our charges concerning
Ins bad memory in an article cf the Gth inst. Now
" ^ lave never seen the article referred to, and
cannot find it at present or we would publish it,
ate it he will send us a paper coniainir.g it, we
w ill publish it in our next issue. We have no dis
position to do the Editor of the Republii •an any
injustice, and take this opportunity to acknowl
edge that we have of late seen many articles in the
Republican extremely liberal and just, and that
contrasted very favorably with some others of his
p.trty. In confirmation of this opinion we pub
lish b<“!ow the follow ing correct statement of facts

Forney on Georgia Sentiment,
In his address, designed to demolish the Admin-
| ist ration at a single blow, Mr. Forney attempts to
give the sentiment of the Democracy in vi rions
tSouthern States, on the issue b' tween himself and
Douglas, on one side, and Mr, Buchanan, on the
otln-r. The following is said in regard to Georgia,
and it the remainder of his facts contain no more
of truth than this one, there is no part of the in
terminable docum tit that is entitled to the slight
est faith and credit. He says:
“In Georgia, the leading active men of the De
mocratic community, Messrs. Toombs and Ste
phens, hacked by the larger number of the De
mocratic papers, have clearly and unequivocally
signified th-.ir hostility to the proscriptive policy}
of the Administration.’* t
Every body in Georgia knows there is not one!
w ord ot truth in this statement. Mr Toombs has j
not opened iiis lips publicly on the subject, nori
has any one spoken for him, to that effect. The}
same may he said of Mr. Stephens, if we except
the single remark said to have been made by him
at Cincinnati, which statement a large majority o!
the leading democratic presses have indignantly,
denied. So far from making a “clear and uneqttiv-
I ocal” signification of their hostility- to the Presi
dent, neither of these gentlemen has written or
said one word on the subject, in this State, since
the adjournment of Congress—at least so far as
the public are informed.
Forney’s statement about the Press of Georgia
is equally unreliable. But two of our leading
democratic papers have given the least eounte-
, ... . . , . . , nance to the treachery of himself and Dnue’i.is
pi,ns. and with putting a new plank ,n the Dem and four-fifths of the democratic papeis of the

We wireastonish. il to see an article in the last I
Georgia Telegraph under the above caption, charg- I
ing us with hostility to Messrs. Toombs and Ste- |
ing man, though n foci, need not have err. d there
in.'' Wc there assorted the vital necessity of
h-eping up -a strict adherence to great principles:
mat without them, political parties soon lost all
their vitality, all their power to do good, and would
.-■oner or later fall to pieces. In proof of this
position, we referred to the Whig and American
parties, both of which had crumbled to pieces by
not holding their northern members to a strict ad.
heretic to their national platforms on the slavery
question. We feared that some of our own par
tv were disposed to commit the same error, by in
dulging Senator Douglas, in the name ot the
Democratic party, in promulgating fatal political
heresies. It lias been reported, and so far as we
have seen, has never been denied, that Senator
Douglas has publicly announced the doctrine
that a Territorial Legislature had the right and the
power to exclude slavery from a Territory. This
is in direct opposition to the decision of the Su
preme Court; to the position of the Presideut;
aud to the vital interests of the South; and the
question arises, shall Democrats recognise as one
of their leaders, a man who publicly avows such
a dangerous heresy? Iu warning our party
against falling into this error, we mentioned a
wi ll known fact, that those who had once belong
ed to the Whig party, were more disposed to he
indulgent to Senator Douglas than others, on ac
count, as we supposed, of the want of a strict
adherence to principles in that party, to which
they were formerly attafehed; but at the same
time we expressly declared that wo did not on
that account, in the least suspect their fidelity to
the Democracy. The writer of the article in the
Telegraph subscribes himself an “Old Line Dem
ocrat.” This is a very common device of those
who wish to sow discord in the t anks of the De
mocracy. But we have certain unmistakeahle signs
by which we can always tell the writings of a true
Democrat, and we feel sure the writer of that ar
ticle never was a Democrat of any line. He may
have called himself a Democrat, and may have
followed the Democratic army, but it must have
been for plunder, and not fiom principle. In his
whole article he never attempts to show that Sen
ator Douglas is rigtit, aud that it would he right
to sustain him, lmt his mind appears to he contin
ually fixed upon the number of offices, to which
he says those v ho have joined us from other par- i
tics have helped to elect Democrats. This proves
him to be “of the earth, earthy,” and no true Dem
ocrat. No press in Georgia has been more ready
and willing than ours, to award all due praise to
those who. as we believe, from pure and honest
motives, have forsaken other organizations, and
joined the Democracy. We hailed their accession
to our ranks with joy. and we wish to retain them
in our rauks, and it is for that reason, that we
warn them against the fatal errors of their old as
sociates. Messrs Toombs aud Stephens did not
need the clumsy defence of the writer in the Tele
graph. No one but Forney has ever intimated
that they were about to join Mr. Douglas. The
assertions of Mr. Forney at this juncture, are not
worth much; ho is desperate; having lost his
Democracy, he is now trying to do business on
borrowed capital, and would fain make us beheve
that leading men in every Stale are ready 10 join
Douglas and himself in their war upon the Ad
ministration: time will show that this is all hum-
tcg.
I.ibrral A<1 vertiser*—Unity Papers.
The Merchants and Cotton Factors of ti e city
of Augusta are more liberal advertisers than the
merchants and business men of any other city or
town in Geoigia. Those of Macon come next,
while those of the cities of Savannah and Colum
bus come in last. There is no city iu the Union,
we believe, with the population of Savannah, that
advertises so little. With a population of twenty
or more thousand, she can sustain but two daily
papers, and from the columns of these two we
should not conclude that they were making a tor-
• ; me out of the local advertising. Tim business
lu ll of Augusta, afford a worthy example to those
in sistei cities of this State. They have found
t liter's ink a good investment; and they use it
•ly and continuously. The Merchants of Ma
im should have a daily paper. Those men who
s. -nd their cotton to that place, are anxious to
. .ow, every day, the state of the market. In this
uncction we publish below an extract from a
1 tier of an intelligent planter in Butts county :
“It is greatly to the interest of the planters,
when they have rottou stored with heir factors,
te have information every day c! the price of cot-
t, ,n. I have had cotton stored in Macon waiting
t r the price to advance, and sometimes it has
poie tip aud fallen again, before i could reach
there, or write to my factors to sell it. With daily
n,ails and daily papers. I could save enough to
pay fora paper a life time, on a single^rop of cot
ton, every few years.”

Koiatl!-«Vi‘<t(crn <«ror^in n £ a i n —
Wc copied in our last issue an editorial from the
Albany Falriot in reference to the claims of South
western Georgia to preferment, reserving our com
ments for this impression ot the Times. We
agree with our cotemporary as to the growing
importance of this section of the State, and that
her claims for political- advancement, like that of
Cherokee, have long been over-looked. Her
wealth, her fast iccreasing population give her a
position second to no otfier section in the State.—
We fear, however, that the zeal of our talented co-
temporary of the Falriot hasted him into some un
generous thrusts at our Chief Magistrate of the
State, which upon sober, second thought, ho will
willingly acknowled£e.
He complains that there is not a “solitary Ex
ecutive appointment to any office of profit from
South-West ern Georgia” and thinks it an unjust
“discrimination.” The appointment of Benjamin
May Esq . of Stewart county, as Treasurer of the
State Road, is from South-WesternGeorgia, and
a better selection could not have been jnade.—
Worthy, intelligent, efficient, energetic, he has
ctscharged his duties with fidelity to the, S r.re and
is a true representative of our people. This our
friend will not gainsay. Then we ask that Gov.
Brown should he excused the side thrust conveyed
in the editorial of the Patriot. “Give unto Caesar
the tilings whieh. are Cresar’s.”
AS i

A friend has called our attention to a statement
which appeared some days ago in the Corner Stone,
to the effect, that Mr. Nisbet, of this paper, had
been but a short time a Democrat, having once
been a F’liig. Our friend, Gen. Betbune, never
made a wider mistake in his life. We have been
a Democrat all our political life—literally cradled in
Democracy. Onr father was a Democrat.before us,
and the only brother of a large family, who has
been a Democrat uninterruptedly. No. General,
we never fancied Whig principles; and years be
fore we could vote, we read old Father Ritchie’s
paper with as much delight as ever a girl of six
teen did the pages of a romance.
A Mtroug SioHiach.
Our neighbor, the Southern Recorder, in their is
sue of the 12th inst.. gives their readers the second
instalment of Forney’s disclosures. We have
among all onr exchanges seen hut two papers that
have copied J. W. Forney’s silly and sickly letters.
The Richmond IIhin and the Southern Recorder
feed on the garbage of Forney’s slanderous pen,
with a gusto that betokens a strong stomach. As
Forney lias got among the Black Republicans
now, and is cheek by jowl with the Recorder's
f :st friend and political associate II. Winter Da
vis, we are not astonished that the Recorder is so
thick with Forney, and delights so much in the
disclosures he makes, and which nobody believes.
The AJnnictpal Election in Mavnnnnh.
Notwithstanding the Republican had got “the
people” on the side of the “Citizen's Reform Tick
et,” it was beaten five hundred votes at the elec
tion for Mayor and Aldermen of the city of Sa
vannah. It seems that “the People” preferred the
rule of the Democratic Party. A decision to
which onr Know Nothing friends in Savannah,
will yield willing obedience, as they seem to have
so high a respect for the “People."

The Expected Resistaucs from Paraguay.
A correspondent of the N. Y. Journal of Com
merce, who appeals to he well informed in regard
tc matters connected with the expedition to Para
guay, says:
“One would suppose, from the article published
in the newspapets, that tills Paraguay expedition
was to he a sort of huliday excursion, and that all
this Musquito tieet had to do was to steam up the
river to the capital of Paraguay, and to hatter
down a fort or two. Now, it is well to state what
this expedition w ill really have to encounter, in t
case Lopez refuses to accede to the demands which
will be made by the United States, through Judge,
Bowlin. So far flout President Lopez having the,
most remote idea of at ceding to these demands, it,
is thought by those who ought to know, that
Judge Bowlin will not be allowed to enter Pai^i-
guay territory, hut w ill he received at the extreme
southern limits of the Republic, and seut back
from whence lie catne.
‘•There is little probability that Lopez will p r-
tiiit a steamer to ascend the river, and thereby give
those on board an opportunity to view his means
of defence ; and even should he be ever so willing,
it is not likely that he will remove the obstruc
tions v. hich w ill he extensively boomed and ebain-
■ d. Extensive earth wotks are being constructed,
it is weil known, along both banks of the river,
aud before reaching Assumption the tieet (suppo
sing them able to remove the obstructions in the
river and dismantle the earth work batteries) will
have to silence a fort or redoubt mounting 40
heavy guns. In approaching this redoubt, the
tteet of steamers must receive a raking fire for the
distance of half a mile. This redoubt is placed on
an elevation of sixty feet above the level of the
l iver. Suppose, then, the possibility of passing
the above redoubt, the .Mosquito Fleet has noth
ing more to do hut reduce a fort a short distance
South of Assumption that mounts t>4 guus, 42
pounders. This fort is tdso on elevated ground
I being lilt) feet above the level of the river O;
5'0 j posite this fort there are two channels, one alung
5 IK) either embankment, there being a shoal in the
5 IK) | middle of l iver, and the American vessels being in

5 Off j not. be able through the narrowness of the river
5 HO to bring the guns to bear, as too great an elevation
will he required.
“To reduce the above defences, the Unit
■States send a few steamers which are to tow rafts
up the river, on which the rafts guns of hea
calibre are to he placed, and the men who work
the guns will he exposed to the swarm of riflemen
who will line the river. Paraguay can easily
raise an army of 35,1)00 men, who are far superior
to the Mexican troops. The American expedition
can land 1,20 ) men and out of this number there
will he but 3 )0 men, who are disciplined soldiers,
and these arc the marines. To reduce the redubts
alluded to, it will be necessary to carry them by
land, and to do so a large infantry aud artillery
force will be necessary. At least 4,000 tnen will
he required, with a proper seige train. The
pertness of the mounted Paraguayans with the lasso
is well known, and as cavalry they are very for
midable.
“In case the expedition fails, as it will ho almost
sure to do, unless properly reinforced, it cannot
he said that proper care was not taken ill the or
ganization ot the force, as we have all read a great
deal about the care with which the expedition

officers, and it will be a great pity to have the ex
pedition fail for want of infan ry soldiers. This
cannot hea naval battle, hut a struggle ou land

The Diamond State.
What is known as the “little election” in Dele
ware was held on the.5th inst,. resulting in the en
tire success of the democratic candidates, i his
election was for assessors and inspectors, and the
contest was between the democratic and the new
fledged “peoples parties.” All three of the coun
ties w ere carried by the democrats, New Castle
giving 210 majority; Kent, 283, and Sussex, so far
as heard from, 283—total majority 731. That was
well done for little Delewnre, and gives assurance
of a more valuable triumph in November next,
when William Burton " ill he elected Governor,
and William G. Wliittriy re-elected to congress.—
The Deleware Gazette also rejoices over the re
sult in Wilmington. The peoples party calculated
on a large majority hut actually obtained 29— a
virtual defeat, itt an opposition city.
We notice that the canvass has actively com
menced in Deleware. On the evening oi the 4tit
inst., a large mass meeting was held at Wilming
ton, which was addressed by Major B. T. {Biggs.
Hon W. G. Whitely, and Thomas F. Bayardjesq.,
Hon. G. Read Kiddle will address the people of
Wilmington on the 13th inst., and J. Randall, of
Philadelphia, on the evening of the 21st inst.
An arrangement has also been made for threejoiut
discussions between Mr. Whitely and his oppo
nent for Congress, W. B. Moris, esq., to he held at
Wilmington, Dover, and Georgetown. The propo
sal came from Mr. Moris, who says in his note to
Mr. Whitely.
“Do me the justice, sir, to ascribe to my propo
sal solely to my entire faith in the principles of the
party to which I belong, and to my assured con
viction that a very moderate amount of argumen
tative capacity w ill he quite sufficient to estab
lish those principles upon an tupregnable basis.”
To which Mr. Whitely replies:
“I would also further add tliatin the discussion
I rely vastly more upon the truth of the principles
and the correctness of the measures of the dem-
cratic party titan in any ability in myself to
explain or enforce them ”

“The celestial attractions just after sundown
are tine, fur Venus and the Comet scent to be
a wooing. Venus is uncommonly large and
bright; so much so that the people in oilier parts
say they can see her at mid-day. We don’t like
to see the Comet switching his tail and putting
on foreign airs so near to onr beautiful Venus,
who stays in the neighborhood always. Mr. Com
et has a rakish, DeKiviere sort ot a foreign lock,
and when we see him and Miss Venus sink be
neath the horizon together, can’t help feeling un
easy.”
Fire in a Stub Capitol.—A fire broke out 011

State Capitol, at Columbus, Ohio, whieh was sub
dued before it had extended to other portions of

public documents,stationery, Ac., had l» en de
stroyed. Among the public documents were five
01 six hundred volumes, emhraciug the only com
plete set extant of documents from the first organ
ization of the lerritorial gove.nment to the present
time were totally ruined. These documents were
of great value as records, and it will be impossi

An Example for Pays.—We have, says the Tren

office, who is between the ages of 13 and 14, who
occupies a seat in the highest class in our public
schools, has the geography of his country at his
fingers’ ends, and w ho can cipher round a bevy
of school masters; and in two and a half years
more, (which will make him sixteen), he willprob-
bably read Cicero and Homer to boot. But in ad-
ditiou to acquirements at School, he has three hun

Late and important from Mexico.
Charleston, Oct. 12.—By the steamship Isabel,
we have important news from Mexico.
The British steamer Solent left Vera Cruz on
tne 3d inst., at 12 o'clock, M. At 7 o’clock that
morning, a courier arrived from the city of Mexi
co. who stated that Gen. Vidauri had been defeat
ed by Gen. Miramcn, near San Luis. The latter
captured 1,00(1 prisoners and several pieces of ar
tillery. At 8 o’clock in the morning another cour
ier arrived from Vera Cruz, who stated that Vidau
ri had defeated Miramon, and that the latter had
blown out ids mains in despair.
The S’lieit(brouglit u.• ws from Tampico, that Gov
ernor Garza, commander at Tampico had levied a
contribution on all foreigners, amounting to $!ff0,-
(•!)“, and on failure to raise the same, had impris
oned a number of Spanish and American t itizens,
in 38 houses, with nothing to eat or drink, and who
were released on condition that they would raise
the amount. A number fled in the steamer Solent.
The Spanish Consul took refuge in a vessel of
war, off' Tampico, and his family sought refuge in
the s'earner Solent, and were conveyed to Havana.

From the N. O. Picayune Oct. 7th.
Later from Havana,
The United States mail steamship Black warrior,
Capt. S. \V. Smith, got up to the h'vce at eleven
o'clock last night. She left New York ou the 271li
nit. She reached Havana on the 3d inst., and
started the same day for this port.
The Black warrior brings two hundred thou
sand dollars in gold on frieght from New York and
nine thousand four hundred dollars from Havana,
with a large and valuable cargo for this porta list
of the .consignees of which will he found in the
usual column.
Mr Purser Gideon favors us with the following
interesting report:
“On the 2(ith ult., at half past four P. M., the
Naval Magazine, at Havana, situated at the head
of the harbor, containing over one hundred aud
fifty thousand pounds of gunpowder, several hun
dred loaded shells together with a large, quantity
of rockets, fircwoiks, Ac., exploded. The shock
and eff.-ct. as described by the residents of the city
w ere truly awful.
“Thus far, there had been found in the ruins
and about the ground, twenty-eight dead bodies
and one hundred and five wounded—four of w hom
died alter being removed to the Hospital.
“For some moments the air was tilled with all
deceriptipn of destructive missiles and stones,
shells, Ac., were projected a long distance from
the building and into the bay.
‘ No damage was done to the vessels at anchor
The dead bodies of three coolies were blown
through the air to the slope ot Fort Atares, nearly
a quarter of a mile off.
“There were unwards of three hundred persons
employed on the new sugar warehouses, in the im
mediate vicinity of the disaster, mostly coolies,
aud among them the loss of life and limb appears
I to have been the greatest. Of the military guard
of the magazine, consisting of a sergeant and six
teen men, only four remained. Many bodies are
no doubt yet under the ruins and in the waters of
the harbor.
“The destruction of the fine pile of sugar w are
houses, some twenty buildings; several uf which
were finished; and the others in course of con
struction was complete. Nothing now remains
hut a mass of stones and rubbish. The concus
sion was so great as to destroy the gass meters,
rendering the gas works, for the present, entirely
useless; and it will require at least three months
helorc the city can he lighted. Every residence
is more or less affected by the shock; several buil
dings sustained great damage. Among the num
ber were the residence ot Don Domingo Aldama,
fronting the military parade ground; the house ol
Don Jose Maria Benelly; and the edifice of the
Royal Economical Society.
Professional Tax Declared Unconstitutional—A
few years since the physicians in this section of
the State, says the Abingdon Virginian, deter
mined to test the constitutionality of tlie law
taxing them for the pririlegc of practicing their
profession. Accordingly Dr. N. Snead, "of this
county refused to pay lus tax. whereupon his
horse was levied upon, aud the Dr. was presented
for refusing to comply with the law, and prac
ticing medicine without first procuring a license.
At the last Circuit Court, held in this place, Judge
Fulton declared the law unconstitutional and
qnashed the indictment.

Death of Ren. Dr. Mundcxille..—We have the
painful duty of announcing the death by yellow
iever, ot Rev. Henry Mandcville, D. I)., Pastor of
the First Presbyterian Church of this city. This
sad event took place this morning, and by it, fam
ily, friends. the church of whieh he was the faith
ful and able pastor and it mav he said, the entire
community, are filled with sadness. He was ta
ken down with the prevailing fever on Sunday
morning Inst: hut the attack seemed comparative
ly slight the disease appearing to yield readily to
treatment and an early and rapid recovery was
confidently anticipated. On Thursday an un
favorable change was observed, which caused
much anxiety; but it was still hoped that he would
he restored. But alas! these hopes proved delu
sive. He grew worse during the. night and next
day, and it was known yesterday morning that
he could hardly survive the day. He died about
1 o’clock A. M. and was buried from the Govern
ment street Church, at 1.1 o’clock this evening.
He died, however, like a true Soldier of the
Cross, having his “full armor on.” He was, from
the first of his sickness, earnest and diligent in his
ministrations to the sick, sparing not himself that
he might comfort the bereaved and lighten the
dark passage of Death to the dying.
