Mr. Hawley, agent for this work, is now in town, soliciting sales of a new and more conve nient, as well as a cheaper edition. It is now comprised in one large folio volume, and is un doubtedly the best work of the kind before the public. It is a work too well known to require any commendation to the notice of our readers.

This eloquent Methodist Divine is in our city, and preached twice at the Methodist Church on Sunday. Bishop P. expects to visit California shortly, and hopes to be able to raise funds in Georgia, before he loaves, to pay for a church which is in process of construction in San Fran cisco.

Judge Lamar left on Sunday last for Millcdgc- villc, for the purpose of holding Baldwin Court in place of Judge Hardeman, who is still una ble, we regret to say, to perform Judicial du des. Judge Lamar, we learn, will also preside the second week of Monroe Court, liaving ex changed with Judge Cabincss, who will hold Crawford Court the first week in March. The change has been agreed upon, to bring to trial in Monroe, cases in which Judge Cabincss was of counsel, before his elevation to the bench. Was defeated in the Senate only by the cas- JNO.

Gov- ernu ent was instituted not for purposes of char- ity, but to extend an equal measure of protec tion to every citixcn in the lawful pursuit of his own interests and happiness; and nothing can be u ore injurious and suicidal than this class legislation. It is all of a piece and comes from the lame sources. The cry for the “landless” comes appropriately enough from the same thro its which bawl for legislation against slave ry-prohibitory enactments against slavehold ers—bonusses to steam ship lines—tariffs for the irenefit of this and that business interest— It is all of the same pattern, and all equally at war not only with sound general jiolicy, but with the rue spirit and genius of a free republican government, which should deal impartially with all ind leave every man to work out his own destiny, with tho same measure of cncouragc- racr land protection. tiontly to the labor of reading a speech newly three hours long. The effect, wc cannot bt tter describe than in the concluding paragraph of comment appended to a Tull report of theSpsech in the New York Tribune, a paper which in this production “a forcible, pertinent and manly appeal for a union of the opposition in i860.’’ Mr. Botts began his speech, says that authority, to a house “filled to the very top most tier, with a densely packed audience, while a large crowd remained standing outside, una ble to gain admittance.” Thestate of affairs du ring its progress and at the end, is also succinct ly stated as follows: “Mr. Botts was frequently interrupted by ap plause, and closed bis address at a little after 5}—having read for two hours and forty-eight minutes—the latter portion of which time his utteftmcc was so rapid as to render his articu lation quite indistinct A respectable audience listened to the end; but long before he had fin ished, the array of empty seats was immensely elf pa-1 cm men; but great issues are upon us—questions numerous.

We understand, from a reliable source, that this important work will be completed by the first day of April, 1860. Col.

When this road is completed tlic tide of travel which now crowds the trains on the West Point, Atlanta and Augusta Roads will be transferred to tho lower and shorter route, turning off at Florence, on the Wilmington and Manchester Road, to Charleston, and then by Savannah, Macon and Columbus to Montgomery. We have no doubt that the commercial interests of Macon will bo greatly enlarged and extended when this road shall go into operation. Macon is bound to be the great city of the South. War in Europe Runs from the tip of cvciy editorial pen, just now—war ostensibly about the “Italian ques tion”—really (as political wiseacres declare,) out of some unexplained and mysterious necessity on the part of European potentates in general, and Napoleon in particular, to divert and con trol the volcanic and revolutionary fires which momentarily threaten to upheave and engulph them, and burst out into a general conflagration. Prognostications dire meet us at every turn, and even on the heel of “pacific advices’’ tho “stu pendous military preparations” belio tho words of peace. Nothing short of a “supreme effort of diplomacy” can prevent or avert war. The very absence of cause seems to be the prime source of danger, and the apparent popular calm, the premonition of a hurricane. We were about to give it up tliat war must come, and to conjecture wliat would be the result of it to cotton and “projuce" in general, when a shrewd old friend stepped in with this comforting assurance.— “Sir" says ho, depend upon it, they’ll never go to war until they have made another crop.— They hav’nt got a stock of broads tuffs to begin this fight on.” Well, then, let us take comfort The crops control matters after all, and tho vol canoes will not upheave till the grist goes to the mill * .'Nominations.

Our fellow citizens in Wayne will have an op portunity to hear him on Thursday. Abolitionism anti Infidelity. When an abolitionist comes to compare his cm Ic dogmas with the teachings of Holy Writ upen domestic slavery, and in particular, with slavery as instituted by God himself in the Jew ish Theocracy, ho has but one of two alterna tives, an honest man. He is compelled either to reject his abolition dogmas or repudiate the Bible. Hence the road from abolitionism to in fidelity is very direct and short, and travelled by all or nearly all the leading abolitionists. Lloyd, Garrison, Parker, Phillips, Burleigh, ct id omne genus, arc blasphemous infidels, and are so logically enough; because the Bible sanc tions by precept and example, wliat they de nounce as the monster crime against humanity. But there is a class of flash abolition preach ers in New York, headed by Ward Beecher, and Geo. B. Checvcr, who have lately undertaken the difficult task of reconciling the Scriptures with modora abolitionism. They are in a dilem inn. They would not lose the notoriety of their position as abolition preachers, but, on the oth cr band there is no small danger that their par ishioners, once abolitionized, may quit the Church—stop the supplies, and turn their backs on a Revelation which leaves their new philoso phy no standing point or holding ground. On the strength of this emergency these preachers have flouted all history, sacred and profane, in the face, and taken philology by the horns. They audaciously deny that slavery existed in the Jew ish and social economy, and that the ancient prophets and chosen people were slaveholders, and assert that there is not in the Old or New Testaments a single authority lor slavcholdinu by precept or example, irr. Ctiecver bos late ly preached three discourses to sustain these positions, in his Church, in Union Square—one of which, as announced in the Tribune, was to “ defend Abraham from the frequent charge of being a slaveholder.” Will such senseless and unblushing outrages upon historic truth help tieso reverend Peter Funks ? Wo think not— even in New Yoik. The better sense of even the uninformed will hardly excuse such stuff on the score of tho mere blindness of partisan zeal. They will bo forced to acknowledge that men who will deliberately outrage truth In that Way are nothing short of knaves. It must have bcena very moving speech. Wo have no space or leisure to comment upon a sin gle item in his bill As might be expected, from the character of the speaker,’ it overruns with the gall and vcijuicc of his own sour, in tolerant and disappointed spirit In his Into re marks before the Richmond Whig Convention, Botts thought all the evils which have afflicted the country for twenty years past, even perhaps blight mildew, cholera and yellow fever, might in this speech, be justly fastened on the democ racy—from which the animus of this formal ar raignment can be inferred. There is something fitting and prophetic in the selection of Botts to inaugurate this new po litical adventure. A busy, intriguing, reckless adventurer himself—ever plotting and never suc cessful—a speculator in everything showing chances, from a horse-race to a political cam paign, Botts was the very man to herald this new enterprise—to prefigure its fate—and rally against it the sober conservatism of the country now foolishly divided on minor points of con troversy.

We are informed that the rales which have governed tlic South-Western Road, and which permitted Ministers of the Gospel, travelling on ministerial duties, to pass at half fare, have been adopted by the Central Rail Itoad, under such restrictions as will prevent abuses which grew up under a similar regulation of tiie Company many years since. We aro also pleased to state that Guano will be transported, by the Company, to any point in any quantity and to any person, at two dol lars per ton.

At this price, Coal fires will become an insti tution among us. lie opinion compelled them to give place to the democracy again. To criticise and denounce is very easy, but to carry on the complicated af fairs of this government is a difficult task in deed. But where is the universal disorder and ruin depicted by Botts ? It exists only in his imagi nation. The people of the United States are at this moment as happy and prosperous as they ever were—the government as powerful and as efficient for all useful and lawful purposes. A Reform which shall place Botts, Seward Gree ley, and the Order of United Americans at the head of affairs, would furnish some real and tan gible illustrations of public disorder, which no JIUUv ommOA in the settlement of which the South is deeply interested and wc are disposed to claim all our rights. The Southern Democracy have elected two Northern Presidents in succession, and while there is nothing to regret in this past ac tion, wc hold that the next Candidate of the National Democracy should be selected from slave State. In ’48 the South liad tlic man; ’52, New England ; in ’50, the Middle States, and now comes the turn of the South, and why should Southern journalists look to the North ior the man for standard bearer of the Demo cracy in the next contest ? We have Breckcnridgc, Brown, of Tennessee and of Mississippi Cobb, Floyd, Gutlirie, Ham mond and other Southern gentlemen who are Billy equal in experience, in statesmanship and in public service to any Northern gentleman, and why therefore when we aro justly entitled to the nomination, should we surrender it ? The North wants us to have it and the North would be better satisfied with a Southern than a North ern man. This may appear strange doctrine, but it is true, and the history of the govern ment proves it. Under the administration of Northern Presi dents the political relations of parties have been always disturbed The elder Adams, tiie first, bis son Quincy, tlic second Northern Pre sident, were failures when measured by tho suc cess which attended the administration of their predecessors. Mr. Van Buren though elected by the South and following in the footsteps of his illustrious predecessor, could not be re-elected The truth is, Southern Statesmen seem to possess a sort of faculty and an aptitude in the Administration of Government which docs not appear to be a gift with our Northern friends. The Administrations of Washington, Jeffer son, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, and Polk, arc without doubt the most successful and popular in tiie history of the Republic, while Adams the elder, the younger, Van Buren, Harrison, Fill more and Pierce, did not achieve or command the popular verdict in their favor. By general consent it lias been understood that the nominee of the Charleston Convention should be taken from a Slave State, and we see no good reason why tiie .South should not accept tho compliment which the North and West have so generously tendered We hope there fore our neighbors of the Register who suggest Mr. Dallas, and the Columbus Times who favors the kinsman of one of its Editors, will co-oper ate in bringing forward a Southern nominee. Three months ago at Washington, among the knowing ones, tiie Presidential ticket had been made up, thus: Hunter and Dickinson on one programme, and Breckinridge and Seymour on tiie other. Since that time, however, great changes have taken place and our information from Washington foots up thus : Brcckenridgc is looked upon as liaving the lead If the Convention were to assemble now. be would go into tlic Convention with the v.otcs of four New England States—New York, of tha Middle,—Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Missouri, Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas.— Gov. Cobb comes next in order. His position now is much stronger than it was three months not be considered a sufficient excuse by the American people to say, that an exception can not be made in his favor. His services arc an exception; there is no such case on record and Gen. Scott by his eminent military services ought to be an exception to the general rule.— Let the great American Captain have all his pay, and we hope this Congress will not abate one cent from his allowance. If Senators and Representatives wish really to execute reform, let it be done by lopping off the extravagant mail contracts, the profuse ex penditures in public buildings ; let them repeal all the laws giving bounties to favored classes, —repeal the navigation laws, and exercise whdlesome and judicious power in putting an end to the system by which Government con tractors become millonaires by pilfering and swindling in the shape of pay for extras. Let the abuses which liavo crept into the Navy Yards, the Custom Houses, and other Depart ments, be rectified, and money will be saved and the Government purified We have heard much of retrenchment and reform, but we must confess that as yet wc have seen no indications which would justify us in saying tlic work in this respect Is to be accom plished Congress will adjourn on Friday next, and there is some talk of an Extra Session, but wc hope that the exigency-will not arise. If an Extra Session should be called, unless a special election is ordered, Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, and many other States, will be unrepresented.

In the Senate on the 21st, Mr. Mason offer ed a substitute to the Slidell bill in the form of a resolution, that Congress approves the pol icy of the President's message, and in the ulti mate necessity of acquiring Cuba, but confines itself to the declaration, that, while the United States is prepared to receive Cuba, whenever Spain is disposed to sell that Island, this coun try never will occupy a neutral position under any policy which would sever Cub* from Spain in favor of any foreign power. This resolution, offered by Mr. Mason, is believed to embody the views of the President at this time. Jiiiucs T. Nisbet sind Hie Knoiv- NOTIIINGS. Under this caption, wc find the following strange article in the Telegraph of yesterday: “We have seen a statement in some paper, copied from the Federal Union, charging Mr. Nisbet with being a Know Nothing, or some- citizens have suffered in their dearest privike .Uacoi: .*> piiitindtsm. of the elective franchise.

Wtiile Mr. N. was Editor of the Journal and Messenger, it was well known here that the Ame rican or Know Nothing party did not consider that paper as the exponent of their views, and wo hope injustice to Mr. X. the charge will not be reiterated.’’ “The files of the Journal and Messenger will show that the above statement Is entirely erro neous. Wc presume the editor of the Telegraph would hardly contend tliat the ‘Florida Sentinel’ was not an exponent of whig principles in 1852 and ’53, simply because he is editor of the Tele graph in 185‘J. The Georgia Journal and Mes senger has uniformly advocated Whig and Ame rican principles, and been fully and heartily identified with those parties. For the inconsis tencies of democratised whig editors and leaders, the Journal and Messenger Is not inclined to be held accountable.” We clip the foregoing very strange paragraph from the last Journal and Messenger. The edi tors of that print, we suppose, would hardly dare assert, in express terms, that Whiggery and Know-Xothingism are identical, because, independently of the entire contrariety in the creeds, they have in mind the early and boastful declarations of Know-Xothingism that it held no sympathy with cither of the old “effete” political organizations, but was built on the rums of both. We dare say the editors have assisted in putting man}' such declarations on paper, and are, therefore, estopped from making in plain terms an assertion which is here implied —if their editorial means any thing at aJJ, Wa have only to say that Know-Xothingism was not more at war with the Democracy tlian it was with the doctrines of the oid Whig party.

HOWARD. Tiie Way of tiie World. A not inapt illustration of the way of the world is furnished in the following little para graph from a Scotch newspaper by the last Steamer. A grandson of Robert Burns, bearing tho same name as his illustrious grandfather, is now living in the town of Dumfries, where the poet died. He cams his scanty subsistence by teaching a few children- He is very poor, and though the town of Dumfries celebrated the centennary anniversary of the poet with din ners and processions, this neglected relative and descendent of him whom all delighted to honor, was not invited to join in any of the ft tirities. since. He could now go into Convention with Atlanta in a End Way! Wc are concerned to see, in picking up the last Atlanta American of Saturday, the people of tliat unfortunate place are so heavily bur dened by the expenses of Mr. Buchanan’s ad ministration, that they cannot educate their children ! Here is the disastrous State of af fairs as set forth by the American : Wuv cannot oihJCiiii-iikes be Edicateo ?— Atlanta polled at the last election over nine hun dred votes. She has polled about nine hundred for several elections. These voters are now over taxed by the mu-named Democracy who revel in the luxurious splendor of an Eastern Court at Washington city, an average of twelve and a half dollars each, that they may sustain them selves in their enormous and wicked extrav agance. A calculation wifi show that the ag gregate sum derived from Atlanta on this basis is OVER ELEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS. This, would more than build the splendid houses wo have contemplated for the proposed Public Schools. In two years, tiie sum wrongfully taken from us would erect both of them, and that sum, afterwards annually appropriated would be necessary to conduct them. Who will pass round the hat for Atlanta?- Meeting of tlic Democratic Exccu TIVE COMMITTEE. Iii the last Federal Union, three members of the Democratic Executive Committee ap pear iu a card appointing a day for the meet ing of the Democratic State Convention.— They have taken this step in the misapprehen sion that tho absence of the Chairman of the Executive Committee leaves no authority any where to call a meeting of the Cominitce for the purpose of fixing a day. That this is a mis take, abundantly appears in the subjoined communication from Col. Duncan, copied front the last Atlanta Intelligencer, which fully sus tains the course of Judge Love in appointing a day for the meeting of the Committee. Judge Love having rightfully made the appointment, we trust that all Democratic friends will ac quiesce iu it—that the Committee will meet accordingly, and name a day and place for the Convention. This will be more satisfactory to all parties, and leave no occasion for dis sent or difference: .Vtuktj, Ga., Feb. 26, 1859. Messrs. Editor—Dear Sirs—On my return from the North yesterday, where I have been for nearly a month, I learned that there had been a controversy in some of the newspapers of the State, during the last few weeks, iu re lation to the calling of the next Democratic Convention. I waa entirely unaware of this discussion until I reached Philadelphia some days ago, on my way South; while there I had a paper put in my hands iu which iny name was referred to os Chairman of the Executive Committee. I regard it as due to myself, lest silence on my part might be misconstrued into claiming a position that I do not desire to occupy, to address you a line for publication on this sub ject. When I moved the appointment of the Ecxcutivc Committee, at the State Con vention, I distinctly requested the President (Col. Lomax,) not to regard the Parliamenta ry usage, but to designate some older member of the Committee as Chairman. Mr. Word, of Chatham, was thus named, as Chairman. In his absence from the country. Judge Love, of Thomas, is the next in order, entitled to take that position, and on him properly de volves the doty of calling tbc Committee to- two New England States, three of the Middle, and Iowa, Michigan, and Indiana of the Weal and three Southern States. Mr. Hunter would receive the votes of Florida and Alabama and perhaps North Carolina, but for his position on tho Cuban question. In Virginia tho politi- cians arc for Hunter but the people arc for Wise. Gov. Brown, of Mississippi, would get the vote of his State. Gov. Brown, of Tennessee his State. Gov. Hammond of South Carolina, his State. . We foot up'the result thus : Breckcnridgc now leads—Gov. Cobb next, and after tlx— two, no other name <nuued is specially piuinmcnt In the event of a failure to agree upon any of the gentlemen named in the above convention, wc have another distinguished statesman whose enlarged experience, emiuent ability arid meri torious public service would- commend him to tho favor of all factions and classes and cliques and interests, and wc should not be surprised if he were the man after all Wc shall keep our readers posted as to how the cards run. The Proceedings of Congress. Since our last issue both Houses have been busily at work. Mr. Slidell’s Cuban pro gramme, wc regret to say, has been killed in the Senate by a combination of Republicans aided by Messrs. Bell and Crittenden and Thompson and a few Democratic Senators tyh<? are fishy on the great question .: The country .wilj hold gentlemen who oppose in any way the acquisi tion of Cuba to a strict Accountability. The Agricultural College donation has been very properly vetoed by the President, The Senate passed the Postal bill, which raises the rate of postage to five cents ou the hall ounce and abolishes tlic franking privilege. In tiio House the vote rejecting this bill was reconsidered, and the Naval Appropriation bill was under ponsideration. It was rumored that a special mc3ssgo from the President was in preparation, announcing the concurrence of England in our construction of the Clayton,-Bulwer Treaty. The report of the House Committee on the corruptions in the Brooklyn aud Pennsylvania Navy Yards, while it acquits the President.and Secretary of the Navy of a)l censure, shews up in strong colors the rascality and fraud attend ing Government contracts and tiie general man agement of these great Government works. It would be well if the President should try what virtue there is in a “new broom."

Crime and its Punisliine nt in Bair TIMORE. Baltimore, Feb. 23. Wliat with the murderous outslanghtsof the desperadoes and the wholesale executions which r are shortly to take place here, I fear our city- will ere long be regarded abroad as the great hu man slaughter house of the nation. Never, per haps, in the history of this, or apy other modern city, has there appeared such a state of things as has for some time pasl and as does now exist in this city. The time was when a cold blooded and wanton murder was looked upon with such horror, and the shock which its disclosure gave to human sensibility was so severe and thrilling tliat months or years were necessary to eradicate it from the public mind Yet at the present day from its so frequent occurrence, it hardly leaves a day’s impression on the mind Indeed, an in terrupted succession of murders seems to be a a necessary ingredient in the local reports of the daily press here, to secure the attention of the reader, and even in that case, the morbid ap petite which has so vampire-like fixed itscl upon the community, is in danger of being palled, unless each succeeding murder is attended with additional circumstances of aggravation and horror.
