THE GEORGIA TELEGRAPH. ^r^ooisr, GrJ±. Tuesday Morning, June 28. dbhocratic kojuxatiox. FOR GOVERNOR, JOS. E. BBOW^ The Next Telegraph Will be issued on Saturday Evening of this week, in order to permit our Compositors the enjoyment of the Great National Holiday. Advertisers, please take due notice, Ac. To a Correspondent. Will not the publication of an article from a neighboring county', signed “A Democrat,” ex cite the very sympathy of which ha complain*, and so endanger the object he has in view? We think so. The better way will be to confer with the Democracy of the county—make a fair and meritorious nomination, and then without any unnecessary assault on the incumbent, rely upon your numerical superiority, which will be fully enlisted by the elections of this Fall, for the success of your own nominee.

Six months ago, the plan and s;>ecifications of the new Passenger Locomotive Emcno» Foote' 1 left the bureau of the Master Machinist, Mr. Thomas Dorcmprrr, and without adding to the regular force of the shops, his ideas have been developed and embodied in an t fficient machine, which in point of beauty, com- | wetness, relative power, and economy ire the use of fuel, will lead the list in the Locomotive 1 lepartment of the Macon and Western Railroad. 1 f any one suspects we are dealing in mere com pliment, let him go and examine this beautiful Engine. Its extreme length of boiler is fifteen feet nine ucIkm. Diameter of waist 38 inches —square iimace 42 cubic feet—86 flues of 1 * inches di- imeter, and ten feet one inch long, the iron- workmanship of Mr. P.

The hasty re treat towards the Adda, and the precipitate evac uation of Mil&n by the Austrian garrison, leaving behind them a portion of their ordnance and stores, and a pretty well-stocked treasure-chest, are signs of a moral as well as a physical defeat.

This fact has awakened a profound sensation in England; and an absolute terror of the Emperor and what is suspected to be his ulterior designs is manifested by a part of the British press. Meanwhile, Prussia is taking steps to plunge into the war, against the significant notification of Russia to keep out of it; and it is no matter of augury that a few weeks will find both these powers up to the elbows in the fight, and that one after another, nearly all the Germanic States will be drawn into the maelstrom.

General Bcthune is also in attendance prepared to argue No. 8, which is the case of Janies N. Bcthune, Pl’fT in Error, vs. Mayor and Council of Columbus, Deft in Error.' This is a case which involves the question of the constitutionality of the market ordinances of the city of Columbus, and in regard to which so much has been said and written. The Coart will continue in session during the next three or four weeks. We will endeavor to obtain re* ports of any important points decided by the Court time if Macon keeps the “ lick that she now ; cvcr trod the rail in Georgia, or elsewhere. She is designed for Passenger service, and her cost to the Company, reckoning materials and all the time employed in her construction, repre sents the price of such an Engine at a Northern manufactory, saving to the Company the freight and such expenditures for patterns as would be required in keeping the Engine in repair during her term of service. All the various parts of this beautiful anil complicated machine, as made and finished by the original draft, were put together without a particle of alteration, and have never been tak en apart since. 6h® performed to perfection in the very first essay, a circumstance which is uncommon in any Locomotive shop, but here most remarkably displays the accuracy of the Master Machinist and the ability of his workmeu Our little train, composed of this Locomotive and one passenger car, ran up to Bamesvilie, a distance of forty miles; during which, with the exception of a very little heating of the crank- axle journals, and the usual foaming of the wa ter in the boiler, there was nothing to indicate in the performance that this was a trial-trip- Mr. Dougherty, and Mr. Gillen the Foreman of the shops, were along and watched her perform nnee with anxiety at first, anil the full gratifica tion of exultant pride afterwards. Both are certain that she will excel in performance and economy, any other Engine on their Road, while they know tliat she is built for durability. It was a beautiful trip, and we bowled along at varying speed, according to circumstances and fancy of the runner, which sometimes ran as high os forty miles an hour. The verdict was a discharge of the Engine from the Shop to regular service, and she is now waiting her ap pointment It is no small gratification to us to know that this is but the beginning of Locomo tive building in Macon.

ARMORY HALL ) Savannah, Jink 20th, 1859j At a meeting of the “Chatliaui Artilleiy,” held this eveningat Armory Hall, tho following reso lutions were unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the thanks of tho “Chatham Artillery” lie, and are hereby tendered to the Central Rail Road & Ranking Company, for their distinguished mark of friendship, in pla cing at our disposal an elegant train of cars, complete in all its appointments, anil for convey ing us, in tho same, to and from the city of Nash ville. Resolved, That our tlianks are due, and they arc hereby returned to the officers in charge of the said train, anil to all on board engaged in the direction and management of the same, for their uniform courtesy and constant care. Resolved, Tliat we sincerely appreciate the kind reception extended to us as a Company, by the officers and uicinliers of the “Afacon Yel- unteers,” the “Floyd Rifles,” the “Bibb Coun ty Cavalry,” and tlic “Artillery” corps of tho city of Macon. the inquisitor of their consciences,) are now moving ever)' thing in earth, and even invoke Heaven to prosper their unrighteous crusade against the Constitution and laws of the land. They are endeavoring to mislead the honest and unsuspecting masses in reference to this matter. In every primary assemblage of a political as pect, where they are able to muster even a cor poral’s guard, they have sought, and still seek, to have their distasteful views inaugurated with force anil efficiency. And by intrigue and per suasion they have themselves smuggled into the different political conventions of the South ern States, with the clandestine object of giving direction to their deliberations. In support of this declaration, witness the late proceedings of a convention holdcn at Vicksburg, Ml—a self constituted body of men who arrogated to them selves authority to speak the views of the sove reign people, touching this policy of renewing the African Slave Trade.—At the close of their stormy and undignified session, a certain gen tleman with much fire and more furor in his organization—though at the same time blessed with a due proportion of the “ suaviter in mo- do”—I repeat, this gentleman—this “ Pasha of several tails”—had the unblushing hardihood to rise in his place in that body, and pledge Georgia to his line of policy. Again: only a short moon ago, and the Democratic Conven tion of Texas, delegated by her people, if indeed they were blessed with any power at all, to no- thc Executive Chair of that State, took a vote States cost our fathers too much of their precious blood anil trea.-nre to be dissolved at the whim and caprice of every sltaU beer politician. But how inconsistent iliese men are. When the north threatened us with the “proviso of Wilmot,” the cry South was, hands off—let us alone Is all we ask—we should hate our.-ilves were we to ask more than is guaranteed to us by the Constitution of our Confederation. Now many of our citizens, patriotic 1 grant you, who then hallooed more lustily than the loudest, are willing—aye, they actually express a settled purpose—to end the Union, if Congress should refuse to repeal laws which it is believed the legitimate tribunal of the land has pronounced to be in strict accordance with the Constitution, and the Constitutionality of which they have heretofore believed themselves. “ Consistency thou art a jewel,” wheresoever found. There is yet another objection to any inter ference with the laws of the land touching the African Slave Trade, which in my humble opin ion over-rides and greatly overbalances all others of whatsoever character. I urge that Maryland and Virginia would manumit their slaves to morrow hut for the high and remunerative pri ces they annually receive for the slaves they grow for market Whenever slave labor shall cease to be remunerative in any State where it now exists, the statute making it legal to hold and work slaves will be stricken from its re cords. Then were I never so anxious to dissolve the Union of these States and to give the death blow to the institution of Slavery which we all, minato a candidate to rucairc their suffrages for trust, lore and revere, 1 would were it in my poncr, re-open the African Slave Trade, and fill pleasure, the warm reception given us by the. brother Democrats in other States.

And should it ever take place, which may “God forefend it,” (I mean abolitionism,) will as necessarily follow as effect follows cause Yet I do not, mark me, charge the begetters of this scheme with any such wish or design. “Gate C’ity Guards’’ of Atlanta. Resolved, That our thanks are due to the of ficers and “Cadets” of the Georgia Military In stitute, at Marietta, for the complimentary sa lute with which we were greeted while passing through tliat city.

New stores and residen tial are going up on every band; a new Cotton warehouse has just been commenced by Mr. Dickinson, and other important enterprises arc on foot Brown, the enterprising proprietor of Brown’s Hotel, intends erecting an addition to bis house oi the same size and shape as the present beautiful structure. This will give him 100 more rooms, and render his hotel the largest in the South, as it is onc of the best Under the superintendence of his son-in-law, Mr. M. 8. Peters, everything is undergoing a thorough overhauling; at the table 1 found all the staples of tbe country, and delirious fish, turtle soup, and pastry and fruita in great variety. Then the hotel is so convenient—no omnibus—no trouble about baggage; porters are waiting with neat labels on their hats—to take charge of it without noise or bustle. In short, the ad mirable depot and hotel arrangements always put me in a good humor with Macon, and I on ly regret tliat business calls me away so soon on a flying “incursion” into Alabama.

She was just entering the front door, receiving some friends from Henry County, and at tho announcement ut tered a aunt agonizing shriek of surprise.

In a few short years five cents per pound would lie the maximum price for cotton,' foe effect of which would be to re duce the price of a yqung heggq fellow to eight (8) hundred dollars!
