‘ dhereiice. Friend alter friend has first faltered.
• he" deserted, then denounced him. State after
i;«ii. even his native Pennsylvania, has joined hi
the cry of opposition. A majority in the House of
Representatives lias dwindled into a minority; but
the President, unmoved amid the storm, looks
calmly on the racing of popular commotion, and
resolutely, as when first elected, reaffirms the same
doctrine of non intervention and equal rights of
the States. (Cheers) And will the South in the
, on r of bis need, desert the mail, who, through
•11 trials and dangers, has never deserted her?—
4i>,n e all, will her gallant sons join in the shout ot
the applauding crowd that now hails the success
tf f j,is embittered opponent? Wheu Douglas returns
iu triumph to the Capital; a triumph won over the
truest and bravest band that ever fought to the
death i» a just cause; a triumph won by courting
anti-Southern prejudice, and fanning the flames
0 f sectional hate, will Southern men be found to
jtvell the throng that follows ahouting at his
chariot wheels? I trust we may be spared such a
spectacle, (cheers ,) 1 trust that the South will
be seen as one man, rallying round the dis
tinguished Statesman in whom are embodied her
cherished principles, and by his side awaiting the
issue, (cheers, j Recall the closing words of his
message to the last Cougrcgs, on the admission of
Kansas. ‘1 have thus discharged my duty on this
important question, under a deep sense of re
sponsibilitv to God, and my country. My public
life will terminate in a short period, and I have no
earthly object of ambition except to leave my
country prosperous and peaceful, and to live in the
affections ana respect of my countrymen.” (cheers)
And men of the South, men of Georgia, will he not
live in uur affections, and oar respect? Surrounded,
.-,3 he is, by embarrassment, oppressed, as he may
be, by anxiety, will we notjoiu in an aspiration
to heaven, that not « hair may grow whiter on his
head, nor a furrow sink deeper in his brow, nor a
day be stricken from the brief span of his life
which still belongs to his country? (cheers.) If
any statesman must be snatched from the public
service, let it be some younger adventurer npou
the tempestuous sea of politics, but spare! gracious
heaven! spare! the venerable chief, around whom
the affections of two generations, and a nation's
hopes, so thickly cluster! (Prolonged cheers.)
Hut, at last, men of the South, must we look
for our chief reliance to the fundemental law of
the laud—the constitution of the country. I, for
on*-, have never seriously questioned or doubted
the future of the South Standing firmly upon the
constitution, she has been enabled to resist a
world in arms. She lias just passed through an
age full of its own peculiar dangers; an age when
the civilized world has been run mad with general
principles of human origin, emanating from an
egotistical philosophy which has sought to do the
work of God, and not from the pure bosom of his
own revelation. Europe, shaken more than once
Id its centre, lias presented the melancholy spec
tacle of liberty degenerating into licentious
ness. of republics lapsing into anarchies, and the
traveller beholds, scattered all over the surface of
her social life, the putrifying carcasses of the dead
philosophic principles which had first distracted
and then deserted her. The civilized world, and
Kurope in particular, had yet to 1 earn the lesson
of humility; had yet to learn that “the foolishness
of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of
God stronger than men; and that no flesh shall
dory in his presence”—that no principle of po
litical ethics is capable of a general practical appli
cation unless it draws its nutrition from the teach
ings of the Savior of mankind and his apostles,
the only true type of modern civilization. Men
are discovering that God has ordained distinc
tions which no human philosophy or effort can
modify or resist; that, as in the material, so in
the litoral and intellectual world, infinite variety
characterizes his works; and that, as one tree will
overtop another in the forest.so one race will domi
nate over another, one individual master another,
and that all of us, controled by the thought or
action ot the living or the dead ,are in a certain
sense measurably enslaved. It is only the great
ireativ- thinker, standing solitary and alone
upon the highest pinnacle of intellectual inspira
tion. who is altogether free, and he is God’s Vice
gerent on earth. The world is learning to distin
guish between names and realities, and begins to
comprehend that in all civilized society there are
two great elements, capital and labour, that the
capitalist is master, the laborer slave, and that the
gentlest system of slavery is where a portion of
the capital of the country runs from the soil that
is tilled into the person who tills it. So far as
mankind at large are concerned, there are a thous
and reasons why the institution of African slavery
is stronger to-day than it was yesterday, and will
be stronger to-morrow than it is to-day. With
reference to our own country we have simply to
he true to ourselves, and to be true to ourselves we
need but he true to the constitution of our fathers.
J am aware that it is a passion, quite natural if
not necessary to the South, to anticipate the worst,
and to contemplate the remedy I have never
yet anticipated a crisis in which the South would
not he strong enough to take care of herself, and
I know of no remedy for wrong not provided by
thS constitution, since all wrong must be in viola
tion of it. 1 preach only the constitution and
that maintained. I know of no retreat from that
sentiment—the federal constitution, it will be
maintained, to that other sentiment.’—the Federal
Constitution, it must be maintained. But the
maintajuers of the constitution are the union;
therefore the Federal Union will and must be pre-
serv* d! The violators of the constitution, it mat
ters not what their uumbers, what tin-ir majority,
are the secessionists, are the revolutionists, are the
rebels. The defenders of the constitution, it mat
ters not what their minority, are the Union! To
them belong its national name, its prestige and
power, its past and its future, its exliilirating hopes,
its soul-thrilling memories, and the [life-giving,
liberty-breathing name of Washington! (Cheers)
Men of the South, defenders of the constitution,
will your first step in vindication of your outra
ged rights be to turn your hacks upon the most
precious of them all? When the crisis comes, if
come it must, will you not rally around your liege
monarch—it may indeed claim to rule by the di
vine right of kings, since it is itself an emana
tion from the universal thought, the universal
truth which is God—will you not draw from tyour
inspiration, aud, when out-post after out-post shall
have fallen, gathering all your manhood about
you, again devoting fortune, life and sacred
honor to the cause, will you not strike for it
and your rights, for tue hopes, the liberties, the civ
ilization of mankind? [Cheers]. You have all
the true elements of national strength. Not yours
the v;uit commercial emporium with its countless
temptations to corruption and crime; not yours
the aucient capital, enriched by the accumulated
hoard' s of lapsed ages of enervating time ; not
yours the luxurious palace adorned with the
works of semi-sensual art; but yours at last is

The Constitutionalist closes a long article on the
position of Senator Douglas, with this language:
“We trust, with our correspondent, that all dif
ferences betw een Judge Donglas and the Admin
istration may be reconciled, hut not in the mode he
proposes, in that mode they ought not to be, and
never will he reconciled It is not for the van
quished to dictate terms.”
Now, what are the terms proposed by the corres
pondent of the Constitutionalist, to which the edi
tor demurs?—why, as follows: We quote from
“EQUALITY'S" article :
“If Judge Douglas will state that the charge
of “fraud” was made in the heat of passion aud
debate— that he will stand by the decision of the
Supreme Court, which declares the right of the
slaveholder to protection of his slave property
ina Territory until the people in convention shall
in their Constitution, decide whether slavery shall
or shall not exist in their midst—the present es
trangement can be removed, and Douglas Demo
crats and Administration Democrats can, once
more, unite their forces against the common en
emies of equal rights, the Constitution aud the
Union.”
Why does the Constitutionalist object to these
terms? Will the editor dare say that the English
bill was a “fraud!” If not, why sustain Douglas
when he does the same thing? Will Mr. Stephens
or any member of Congress from Georgia denounce
the F.ngiish hill as a fraud! No. And will the ed
itor of the Constitutionalist not have Judge Dou
glas sustaiu the Dred Scctt decision? It seems that
this is all the writer (“Equality”) asks of
Senator Douglas. We ask more. We ask hint to
lay down his weapons of war, aud come up to the
support of tire National Administration, and the
National Democratic Party, aud cut loose at once
and forever from such black Republican associates
a* Jidin B. Harbin, Horace Clark, John Forney,
ft id omne genus. He must prove himself a Dem
ocrat; nobody asks moie of him. The South has
not been “vanquished” if the North lias, by Doug
las. The Southern Democracy, with but here aud
there an exception, staud by the President because
he has stood by them. “Vanquished” indeed!
Who’s“Vauqtiished” by Senator Douglas? Not
the true hearted Democrats of Georgia or those of
her sister States—but the constitution! so far as
the triumph of a Revolutionist can bring defeat
upon that great instrument, by personal success.

Col. W. A. Lewis of Forsyth county, has writ
ten a long le tter to the Lawrenceville News, sta
ting that ho was first a Whig and then an ‘ Ameri
can ;” that he did all he could openly and fairly
do in the last canvass to defeat Gov. Brown and to
elect lien Hill. He concludes the letter as fol
lows; “I therefore heartily and cordially endorse
Gov. Brown’s administration of the affairs of the
State so far, and shall, if he continues to discharge
his duties with the same faithfulness as he lias
done, most certainly and cheerfully support him
in his next election. I hope that the people of
Georgia will rally to his support and unanimously
vote him into office for a second term.” Col.
Lewis is a vigorous writer and a bold, energetic
man. He doubtless expresses the sentiments of
thousands of honest, true hearted, patriotic “Amer
icans.” We believe the great body of the people
of all parties, heartily respond to the sentiment.
-Aii Editorial jumble.
We clip the following remarkable editorial from
the columns of the “Southern Georgian” a paper
printed at Bain bridge Ga. If any white man can
make sense out of it, it is more than we can
do :
The Right View.
A letter from Milledgeville to the editors of the
Augusta Constitutionalist closes by saying—“All
the democrats I have conversed with, nre in favor
of Douglas’ election, without being unfriendly to
Buchanan’s administration.”—Federal Union.
The right view in a horn. It eoines in bad grace
for the Union to thus head such an expression as
is contained in the above, especially when taken
into consideration with his late Douglas-denounci-
atory editorials; but democratic newspapers can
with clear consciences praise Douglas’ friends and
at same time laud Donglas foes.
Three members of the present Legislature have
died since the adjournment iast winter. Messrs.
Moore of Glynn, Jones of Warren and Julian of
Forsyth, all members of the House of Representa
tives.—Fe/l Union.
If the Milledgeville correspondence of the Au
gusta Constitutionalist is correct when he says;
“All the democrats he lists conversed with are in
favor of Douglas’election,” and if we were Ad
ministration or Buchanan democrats, our sincere
wish would be that many more democratic mem
bers of the Legislature may die.”
Now, in the first place, the Federal Union never
had the lines first quoted, in its columns—if it Lad
it never would have said it was the “right view.”
And in the name of common sense what has the de
ceased members of the House of Representatives
got to do with this subject? What is the matter with
the Editor of the Southern Georgian?
“Billjr Woodpile.”
We give place to the communication of “Billy
Woodpile,” believing its humor will be appreci
ated notwithstanding its thrusts. It is particularly
pungent and severe on some of our friends of the
5th District, hut all will enjoy a laugh over it.
Public Edut-mits *Ve.
An intelligent and venerable democrat writes us
as follows:
“1 am not disposed to write an article for pub
lication to comment npou the proceedings of the
Legislature or on the message of Governor Brown,
but I do hope, the people are represented by those
who are sufficiently wise not to allow their money
hi be thrown away upon colleges as proposed by
the Governor and endorsed by the Senates Aca-
deniicus.
It is a most wild and unjust proposition to give
away the peoples money for the benefit of about
one out of every thousand inhabitants. I predict
the people will repudiate any such appropriation
of their money.”
Mr. JarkMi’i Address.
A large and intelligent audience, composed of
members of the Legislature and citizens of Mil
ledgeville, assembled in the Hall of t .e House of
Representatives on Tuesday evening last, to wel
come the distinguished orator, and late Minister
to Austria, Hon. Henry R. Jackson. Gen. Peter
Cone was made chairman of the meeting, and n
committee was appointed to inform Mr. Jackson,
that his fellow-citizens were ready to hear him.
The committee brought- Mr. Jackson into the
Hall, when he was greeted with a round of ap
plause.
Mr. Jackson’s address was a little over an hour
in length and commanded uninterrupted attention
It was a masterly vindication of the idea of terri
torial expansion in the past, and of the progress of
our country in future by the extension ofour laws
and religion over other territory now ripe for an
nexation. We cannot follow the speaker in his
masterly elucidation of this idea. He devoted
much of his time to the subject of National Politics,
and especially to the causes which have lately
brought defeat upon our party at the North, lie
boldly and directly charged these reverses upon
Senator Douglas and the Douglas Democrats at
the North. He showed from the opinions of the
Douglas organs and Douglas’ own speech, that he
was a greater Revolutionist than the Black Repub
licans of the North, and that he was in open rebel
lion against the Constitution of the Country. He
vindicated the character of the Administration for
its faithful adherence to the Constitution and
the integrity of the National Democratic party, in
the face of certain defeat, oven in Mr. Buchanan’s
own State He paid a glowing and eloquent tribute
to J. Glaney Jones, who lias just been honored
with a Mission abroad, aud .said that to him the
South was indebted for the first declaration of the
doctrine of non-intervention in the territories.—
Mr. Jackson’s tribute to Mr. Buchanan touched
the heart of every Southern man in the audience,
and elicited frequent applause. Ot the purity of
thought—elegance of diction, and force of argu
ment. wo need not speak—the address will be
printed and read with delight Mr. Jackson as an
orator, stAnds second to no man in Georgia. The
fire of his eye has not dimmed by absence, or the
flight of years; and that golden thread of Poesy
which in otliei days linked his soul to the Beauti
ful and Good of earth, still shines through the in
ner, aud sways the sweet influences of the outer,
man.
Ctor. Cobb.
We see that it is stated in some of our exchang
es that Gov. Cobb is going to France. We have
good authority for saying that it is an entire mis
take.
the week, it will be seen, from our reports, that an
unusual number of private and local bills have
been passed, while hut few of geueral interest have
yet been definitely acted upon. In the House, one
new county bill has been passed and one lost. The
vexed question of State aid, about which so much
was said last session, aud has been said this, was
finally disposed of on Saturday last. The fate of
the two bills acted upon, seems to foreshadow the
defeat of thoge yet to be acted on. The various
bills relative to the Sepreme Court are yet undis
posed of. From the lights before us, we are inclin
ed to think that the Court will be reorganized and
put upon a footingof equality with similar tribu
nals in other States. The great and absorbing
question before the House, next week, will be th%
discussion of the various educational schemes now
upon the clerk’s desk. It is to be hoped, that from
the various plans proposed, some plan may be de
vised, which will meet the wants of onr people.
In the Senate, few bills of importance have been
acted on. The bill to strike out the 11th Sec. of
the 4th Art. of the constitution has been, not kil
led, hut reconsidered with the understanking that
it shall not be brought np again during this session.
The Senatus Academicns has been in session siuee
Friday morning last and has just adjourned sine
die. Hon. J. E. Ward has resigned his seat as
President of the Senate and as senator from Chat
ham County, and Hon. T. L. Guerry has been
elected to fill the vacancy.
Lease «f the State Kaad.
The South-western News says we are hard down
upon the proposition to lease the State Road, but
if we have any good reasons against it we have fail
ed to give them. Let us see. we stated and proved
that the proposition of the company was not so ad-
vantagous to the State by several hundred thousand
dollars as that made by Gov. Browu.We stated and
proved that the State Road had not yet shown
what it was capable ofdoing. The fact is that the
Road was very badly built at first, and a great
part of its earnings np to this time have been ex
pended in repairs, building depots, &c., &c., hut
all of these will soon be finished and then we have
the best authority for saying the net income of the
Road will be half a million per annum. The
News admits the company will make money by
the lease and is very willing that they should. If
there is money to be made by the road we had
much rather it would go to the people of Georgia
where it belongs than into the pockets of specu
lators, this we think is a good reason against leas
ing it, whatever may be the opinion of the News.
The News is very much opposed to the roads be
ing managed by the people, we think the people
can manage their own property to bettor advan
tage to the State, than to have Dr. Collins, James
Dean, Lewis Tumlin and Co. to manage for them.
The man that has no fears of a Company with all
the money and patronage of the State Road at
their command has studied the history of this and
other states to but little purpose. We have lately
seen in Georgia corporations with not one tenth
the power this would have, set the laws of the
State made expressly to hind them, at open de
fiance with impunity. We have seen them
fuse to comply with the express provisions of their
charter and come to the Legislature for relief and
get it, and it is but r.-asouable to fear companies
who are a law unto themselves and care for no
other law. Powerful companies do not care what
restrictions are throwa around them in their char
ters. They have a way ofevading these restric
tions whenever it suits their interest.
