When,aid bad been asked of the Legialature to help other neglected portions of the 8late, the excuse has been und always will be—till the rood is made profitable, or sold, that tbo debts contracted to build the present road are too great to allow of any new obligations to be incurred for new enterprises. Taxes may be complained of, poor children neglected, •very other new Railroad improvemement dis regarded, and still, as the U. S. Bank did the nation, this monster source of patrongo and power is suffered to bestride the State almost without a murmur. It will take the aid, I apprehend, of all these interests to force from the dominant party, this great source of pat- roxuge and power.—Our people, a few years since, came near revolutionizing the govern ment on account of the encouragement given to domestic manufactures, and are now quietly losing an amount equal to seven-eighths of their taxes, to the encouragement, I fear, of domestie plunder. The road is seed like a bankrupt trader, aod in Tennessee, the other day, $38,000 damages were recovered against it. His beset by lawyers within and without. Its doors, like those of a broken merchant, are ‘•the hammering places” of half the constables and sbirifis of Cherokee, Georgia. Its depots an offices for the filling of summons and writs; its name seems to bo as familiar upon the court docket is John Doe sad Richard Boo, hot like poof Dick Boo, the Road is generally at the bottom; generally defendant. And some Sat urday sreaing, In Tennessee, from the top of a whisky barrel, a constable will knock off all that end in his bailiwick, to the highest bidder, and the tax payors of Georgia, be called on to raise* few more hundred thousand dollars to id pay off executions in tbo would have boon no damages. If the road, or rather the managers, had done their duty, there would have been no injury. So that the feet of damages is evidence of deroHet duty on the part of the managers. Taka the other horn j of the dilemma, that the damages were not sustained but improperly reoovered, then there was mismanagement by the salaried Attorney ta the eoaduet at the suit, (may I not say pen* sloned partisan,) unless the jury poijured them* selves, by finding against evidence (too violent a presumption to be made when there are two others ao probable.) Faming over the question whether Maj. was entitled to a discrimination in bis of some twenty-five per cent in prefer* ence to small, and all other large shippers, we find these facts admitted by him. That he for eleven months, sought with remonstrances to have justioe done him by n reduction of his freights, but without success, till after the nom ination of the present candidate of tbo Demo* eratie party, and the determination of Me). C. to oppose him bemuse of refoaal to do him jus* tice; that ho was injured at the rata of $6,000 to $8,000 per annum; that said nominee, as early as June, 1854, alluding to said injustice, said it was wrong and unjust, and ho would see too it, Ac-; that not only was MsJ. Cooper suf fering injustice, hot it was ‘against the interest of our 8tate, as stated by MnJ. Cooper, and as he says, ‘avowed by Mr. Yonge,* and he, Maj. C., after the reduction of his freight* determi ned to stand as he bad stood, a supporter of the democratic candidate;—The injustice done him and the injury suffered by the State is frsquent- ly reiterated by Mn)> Cooper, and it seems he was Incessant in his appeals to those in power for redress, but without eueees* for eleven months, aod until after the nomination of the democratte candidate for Governor. If, notwithstanding constant remonstrmneos for eleven months, it had been neglected, he should have been discharged as soon as it earns to the knowledge of the Governor. This, the best view of tho ease, is vety significant of the reason why the State has five millions of useless property. If, under the constant remonetran ces of such a man as Mask A. Coopor, who, when ‘‘he did what he could and said what he ought,” could not receive attention under ele ven months, when the interest of tho road was combined with his, I think the interests of tho State, accompanied by no remonstrance, might well be expected to go unnoticed for eleven years, instead of months. And it seems that tho interest of the State and remonstrances' of Cooper felled to prevail with the powers above, till moved and instigated by political motives; for the interests of tbo State and the remon strances of Cooper were not heeded till after the democratic nominetion, and Maj. Cooper’s Removal of Judge Elmere ef Kansas!— Judge Elmore’s tetter te Attorney General Cushing. Shawnee Mission, Aug. 23, *55. I received yours of the 6tb on the 20th. I did not expeot tho explanations and reasons as signed In my communication of the 11th of July to have been sstisfootory to the President, for libit confident that the President's oourse being dictated altogether by political policy which would not be successful without the re moval of an equal number of Territorial officers from the North and from the South, was fully determined upon (ar parte as it evidently was) on the dot*. of your letter of tho 4th of June, and I gave the statement of the foots, and the reasons which induced me to beeome a party to those contracts in the way of explanations, so that the facts and my reasons might be placed on file in the department The Legislature has deemed it proper and right to locate the seat of jnstioo in and for tbo county of Calhoun at the town of Calhoun—a town laid ont oa tho reserve granted to the half breed Kansas Indians, (in which neither of the parties to the contracts heretofore submitted by Governor Reeder and others have any interest whatsoever), and surely, they would not have done so if they had conceived for one moment that by so doing they apparently violated the aots of Congress, or the regulations of the de partment I ask for information, what aot of Congress, and what regulations of the department I bad apparently violated, and I consider that I had a right to expeet that I should receive such in formation, and as it has not been given, I must think that I have not apparently violated even the spirit of a single act of Cnngres or regula tion of the department otherwise tbo informa. tion would have been imported in yoor letter of the 6th inst. The 27th section of the act known as the Ne braska and Kansas aot fixes the tenure of office of the Judge of the Supreme Court in these words, “and they shall hold their offices for the period of four years, and natU their snceessois shall be appointed and qualified.” No power is given by the bill to the President to remove. And if you will examine the tenure of office ol the Governor, the Secretary, the Distriet Attor ney and Marshall you will see a marked diffe renoe. The power to remove all and each of these officers is expressly retained in these words “unless sooner removed by the President.'’ (See the 20, 21, 27, and 29th sections; pamphlet act 1863 5, p. 284.) I must think, if the English language means anything, that the President has not the power or the right to remove the Judges of this Ter ritory at bis will and pleasure; and, as the Ter ritorial Legislature has deemed it right and pro- The Designs ef Foreign Governments Against the United States. Mr. Zolllcoffer, n member of Congress from Teunessee,ln n speech lately mads by him, says: “Bat before I cite to yon the startling feots I »m about to addoos, allow me to ask your atten tion for a moment to a remarkable political pre diction of a distinguished coble, the Duke of Richmond, lately Governor-General of Canada, on our northern border, and a deadly enemy to the United States. Speaking of this goverment, he says: ’ — “It will be destroyed; it onght not, and will not be permitted to exist. The curse of 'the French revolution, and subsequent wars^|nd commotions in Europe, are to be attributed to its example; and ao long as it exist* no Prince will be safe upon his throne; and the Sove reigns of Europe are aware ofit, and they have determined upon its destruction—they have come to an understanding upon this sub ject, and have decided on the means to ac complish it; and they will eventually succeed by subversion rather than conquest. All the low, surplus population of Europe will be car ried Into that country. It is and will be the re ceptacle for the bad and disaffeoted population of Europe; when they are not wanted for sol diers or to supply the navies, and the govern ments of Europe will favor suoh a course.— This will create a surplus and majority of low population who are so very easily excited i and they will bring with them their principles, and in nine eases out of ten adhere to their ancient and former government* laws and manners, and transmit them to their posterity, and in ma ny instances propagate them among the natives. These men will become citizens, and by the Constitution and laws will be invested with the right of suffrage. Henee, discord, dessensions, anarchy, and civil war, will ensue, and some popular individual will assume the government and restore order, and the sovereigns of Eu> rope, the emigrants and many of the natives will sustain him.” “The Church of Rome has a design upon that country, and it will in time be the established religion, and it will aid in the destruction of that Republic. I have conversed with many of the sovereigns and princes of Europe, and they have unanimously expressed these opinion* re lative to the Government to subvert it.” So said the Duke of Riehmond; and in con firmation of bis statement it may be remar ked, that some of our consuls in foreign eigu countries, have officially informed onr Gov ernment of the sending of ship-loads of guilty and degraded men from Europe, and it Is a well known feet, that there is a vast fond in Europe to pay the passage ef emigrants here who can not pay it themselves. The Fruits of s stumping Governor. We elfp the following paragraphs from two of onr exchanges, that onr readers may is# some of the effects of Gov. Johnson's abandott- mentof his pest to stamp the State for his own rs-sleetion, a circumstance, we believe, unex ampled in the history of the State: XNFoxuanoN wanted. Who can tell ns the whereabouts of the Gov ernor of Georgia? A month or so sines, Gar nett Andrews resigned the office of Judge of the Superior Court, and the resignation wse not long in reaching bis Excellency, who very soon filled the vacancy with one of hie own partisan friends. Not long afterwards, howev er, a citizen of this place wrote toMilledge- viile for information of mueb importance to him, and the gratifying answer he received, wee, that the Governor woe not at home; as soon as he returned the desired information would be forthcoming. And that's the last of it! We think it will remain in that condition for some time to come. Bat for the kindness of a friend the gentleman referrd to would, ere this, have been liable to pecuniary sacrifice— jo.t for want of a Governor, who, instead of trampoosingthe State begging for votes, would attend to the legitimate business of his office. Gov. Jeluuen’s northern Allies. TheN. Y. National Democrat gives tbs fol lowing sketch of the nominees of the National Democratic Administration party of Now York, as brought out at their late Convention: Hatch, (for Secretary of State,) ran last year as an anti Nebraska candidate for Congress. Stetson, (for Comptroller,) was a Van Boren Bnfialo Platform Free Soils* opposed to Cass in 1848. Awley, (for Canal Commissioner,) presided over an anti Nebraska meeting last year, and daring the same year joined the Know Noth ings. Jervis, (for State Engineer,) was a Van Ba ron Buffalo Platform Free Soiler, opposed to Cass in 1848. Thurston, (for State Treasurer,) was ditto. Tilden, (for Attorney General,) was ditto. Agin, for Prison Inspector, was a Van Boren Buffalo Platform Free Soiler, opposed to Cass in 1848, and in 1851 opposed to and resisted the execution of the Fugitive Stave Law. The Macon Messenger notices these nomi nees [all, all to a man, Freesoti and Buffalo Platform men]—men who supported Martin Van Boren, “the Northern man with Southern principle*" and adds: These then are the Northern allies of Georgia Democrats in sus taining the Administration of Gen. IPierce!— These are the representatives of that party. the great State ot New York with which we are told by Georgia Democrat* the South can safely and consistently act! These are the rep resentatives of an important portion of that great, indestrnetible. invincible, immaculate Democratic party of the North, to which we are told by Georgia Democrats ta look for the protection of Southern Rights! The 8th resolution of the Macon platform of Ao American party, declares that “the Wes tern and Atlantic Railroad was projected and built for the general good of the whole people of Georgia, and utterly condemns any policy which has sought, or which may seek, to make it sub. ssrvfeBFto tiis interest or purpose of any polit ical party whatever.” In very similar language, Gov.

Now do Ae people of Georgia feel safe to trusting five million of property in hands that cannot be moved to act for justice and Ae interest of Ae road, unless party incen tives are added Aereto. The great reason why State property usually proves unprofitable, Is Ae presumption that Ae manager’s political affiliations are too strong for Ae regard be may feel for Ae State’s interest. Do not the presumption and fact agree in Ais case ? The managers of Ae road cannot ask more than that corruption of motive be waived, and that justice wasasstroog with MqJ. Coop er, as be represents, argued the case. Untii Ae foots are changed the case stands Ans—either it was wrong to return to the old freights in favor of Mark A. Cooper, reducing his freights 25 or 30 per cent, or if just and right towards Maj. Cooper, and to Ae interests of Ao State, as he say* Aen it should have been done at onee, and not have taken eleven to do that which could and would have done by a business man wiA Ac dash of a pen to eleven seconds. The stronger Maj. Cooper makes his and Ae States' claim for justice, Ae stronger be makes Ae charge of negligeoce and incapacity for busines* on Ae part of Ae management. He but Ae more powerfully shows Ae people of (Georgia Ae reason wby Aeir five millions of capital are a dead loss; why Aey are losing seven-eighth* as mneb as Aey pay for taxes, wby all oAer new enterprises are neglected; wby poor children are uneducated; wby Ae largest property in (he State is Ae most worth ies* aod finallally, wby Ae management should be changed. As I understand, MqJ. Cooper’s statement, the neighboring depots—Cartersv ills for in stance, wiAin some two miles of bis—are still paying Ae high frights of which he complain ed and became relieved. How is it that Aey are suffering without relief, Ae injustice under which Aey have groaned for more than twelve month* according to Maj, C’s. account? As forms Ae interest of the road is concerned, to Ais property, I Aink it more jeopardised in Ae hands of a manager whose indolence, neg. ligenee, indifference, or other like cause, made him as slow to more as -represented by Maj. Cooper, than if under Ae control of one mo. ▼ed by partisan motives. Tl:e otter incapaci ty for business manifested in the first case Is quite as dangerous to Ae State property, as Ae unserupulousness indicated in Ae last. My argument has been built upon no oharge or intimation of nnseropnlonsness, for I have taken Ae most fovorable view of. Ae ease. And while I am unwilling to admit that loose ness to business habits is not incompatible wiA personal or political integrity, yet I am unwilling Ae State should suffer by its indul gence. per to express an opinion on Ae subject, whieh is contained in the resolutions herewiA enclosed, I cannot consent to the action of the President, and I hereby give notice that I shall resist this action through the courts of the coun try.

We say teem, because it Is so constructed as to pro duce Ae impression ol a contradiction, when really in words it does not deny what has been said. It ie a carefully written equivocation throughout—denying noAing and yet seem ing to deny all. He says “when Gov. Johnson was at Rome in 1863, he asked me to strike off several extra SouAernere containing Mr. Jen kins’ famous Whig letter to Ae Savannah Re publican. I did as be requested, and in Aese extras were inserted two or throe editorials from Democratic papers concerning Ae Alge rine law and Mr. Jenkins’ connection wiA it Now Ais is simply an additional charge which we bad not beard, and does not affect Ae other except as a corroborative evidence to establish it—it shows Aere was a printing arrangement between Aem. The oAer charge was not con cerning “several extra SonAerners”but 5,000 algerine documents or circulars which he said Gov. Johnson employed him to print, Ac. And this wss not “carelessly said" eiAer, “ he said it wiA a serious countenance, at more than ono time and place, and that, without har ing to be cross questioned. He said moreover, Aat if As election were to be had over again he wonld vote for Mr. Jenkin* that he regret tod he did not do so before, that he considered Mr. Jenkins Ae best man; and be spoke of Ae littleness and meanness of Ais aot in John son. There are many oAera who could testify to the same. Again be say* “I never had Ae remotest idea of suing Gov. Johnson npon Ae account.” We are not responsible for what idea he really had, bat only for what he said he had, and that was of suing Gov. Johnson. This is only a question of veraeity between J. W. Dcdd, of some mon As ago, and J. W. Dodd, of Ae pres ent time. Wby did not CoL Dodd toll us when he pro sen ted Ae account to Ae “Democratic com mittee of Floyd county,” and token that com mittee paid it? We wonld be wilting to risk Col. Dodd’s testimony, on Ae stand upon Ae subject, wiA a bible in his hand and assevera tion in his mouA. Allow os to say to Ae editor of the Atlanta Intelligencer, Aat Ae “ falsehood” whieh he hod Ae “pleasure of exposing” A Connection with Ais matter, was one only of bis own pro geny, and “we fear Aat Aere is ilo hope of exhausting .Ae supply” Which he has on band. Respectfully, Geo. Si Btacx, 3.9* Underwood, 42. F. Starr. Judge Andrews — Federal Basis.—The Southern Recorder says:—In answer to Ae HbreprcscaUtiABs ef Ear Platform, . The Third Article of our Platform ‘declared Ae Union of Ae States to be the paramount political good—or in the language of Washing ton, “Ae primary object of patriotic desire.”-— Our opponents sieze npon Ais, and pretend to Aink that wa propose to maintain the Union, even if we should thereby forfeit our libbstfss. We adopt the language of the Father of his Country, and mean by It just wfasthe meant We do not express a paramount regard for a mere naked Union of the States, stripped of iu connexion wiA Ae Constitution—powerleed fer good, tad potent for evil; but for Ae Union ss it now is, under the Constitution, With all its guarantees of State Rights, of Liberty, and of Law. It suits Ae purposes of our opponents to overlook in onr platform the connexion of the Union with State Rights and Ae Constitu tion. Taken in this connection, we hold, like Washington, that Ae Union is Ae paramount object of patriotio desire. Out platform enjoins obedience to Ae laws of Ae country. This too, our opponents grossly misrepresent* They pretend to understand that it means Aat we will obey a law, however un constitutional and oppressive— Aat if Congress were to pass a law to set our negroes free, and make us slave* we would submit. St Paul en joins Ae same obedience to law Aat our platform does. As well might Ae infidel aocuae him of eqjoining obedience even if Ae father eoihmsa- ded Ae son to commit murder. These injunc tions of Ae Apostles were intended for rules of conduct under ordinary circumstances, and not for extreme eases. So onr platform was inten ded as rulers to govern a political party under ordlnaiy cireumstanees, and aot to point out what ought to be done A extreme cases, which might justify resistance. The Georgia Platform of 1850, provides for suoh extreme case* and the State Cornell of Ae Americau Party adop ted that Platform. We have, Aerefore, two platforms—one for onr govsrnmentundet ordin- ary circumstances, which requires us to he a law-abiding people; the oAer provides forex* treme cases, which mightjustify resistance sad revolution. What wonld a contrary doctrlna- lead to ? Certainly to lawlessness and anarchy. Our platform proposes to leave doubtful and disputed points of law to Ae judicial tribunals of the country. Onr opponents pretend that toe American Party proposes to leave political questions to the courts; whereas, it is plain Aat we propose to leave noAing to Ae courts but such questions as Ae judiciary have actually decided, and do now decide, from Ae Supreme Court of Ae United States down to Ae Justi ces* Courts. Tho keen eyes of onr opponents can find no thing to object to in Aat part of Ae platform concerning Slavery. For Ae first time Ae American party, in forming a National Plat form, has obtained a complete triumph for As SouAern States on this subject Hon. Solon Borland, on Arkansas.—This distinguished Democratic Ex-Senator and Ex- Minister has renounced Ae “Dry-Rot” party and joined Ae American Standard. He thus gives fals reasons for abandoning Ae modem, Free Soil, Administration Democracy : “Bom and reared In the ‘ Democratic frith, and experienced in Ae duties it enjoin* we bare abandoned none of iUpnTteiple*, but firm- ly adhere to Aem alL And that we have hten faithful in Ae service we here rendered in sup port of Aose principles, we confidently appeal to all of whatever party, who bare known ns, from our first connection wiA puplie affairs, alike In individual, offioiaI, and editorial capac ities ; in all we hare said and done, ty a sense of publio dnly and Sentiment of detotion to the welfare of our country. But while weardently cherish andfirmlylualn- tain these principle*, facta havs forced upon us Ae conviction that the Old party organisation called Democratic, which Was originally form ed for Aeir support, and for Which, alone, we belonged to it, has so far changed its character as to be utterly incapable of answering that pur pose—to maintain Ae constitutional rights of Ae several State* and Aereby preserve Ae Federal Union; indeed, has not only become Ans incapable of good, bn* by Ae abandon ment of principle, by schism in its rank* corruption in its practices, Is fret degeneration into an engine of evil, Whloh, unless its career be speedily arrested, mutt end in tbe subversion of the constitution, and the ruin of the country. oharge of an anonymous writer in Ae Augusta Constitutionalist, charging Judge Andrews of being in favor of Ae white basis, we simply pub lish tho following extract from the Journal of tbe Reduction Convention of 1853.

Mil- ledge, Ae candidate for Senator, bas been transferred to his place on the ticket* and Mr. Miller pat in nomination for Ae Senate. It is understood tbat bo will accept, and Aere is no doubt of bis triumphant eieotion. Cold Weather at the Noeth.—On Mount Washington, tbe bieghest peak of Ae White Mountains in New Hampshire, a young lady is reported to have frozen her free on Ae 17A of August. Ioe formed Aere Aat morning to considerable thickness. On the same day, at Quebec, the atmosphere was close and dry, and sheltered from tbe wind it was pretty com fortable ; bnt thick woolen shawls and overcoats were the rale, not tbe exception. .. ■<<«.* ..I— . $ Why is a key like a comb ? bee wise It un does the toe: Platform fitid Principles the Americas Party #f the State of Geargia.
