Wo are glad to see so many papers republish ing this admirable document According to promise tho reader will find it on our first | age, and if ho has not read it, we hope he will go through it carefully, and lay it by, as an un answerable argument and exposition. If any man’s mind lias become befogged by the new dogmas on the matter of slavery in the territo ries, this document will clear away the mist and cobwebs. number of the Telegraph reaches its patrons, the "issues" of the “struggle” will have been decided. Mr. Akin will have resumed the prac tice of Law, and retired to private life, no longer distressed about the management of the State j Road—or Shanties—or poor old women—or pig iron—or Gov. Brown’s “gross deception and humbuggery"—or Judge Douglas—or Congres sional protection—or bursting up the last Am- eridn gun for the rights of naturalized citizens. —Hon. B. H. Hill will lie sweetly laid by in lav ender again, and the “Demosthenes of the mountains” will retire, like tho Whang-doodle, to his native fastnesses.—In short, quiet will he restored in Georgia after next Monday. Gov. Brown will receivo a new lease of official life by a largely increased majority—Superintend ent Lewis will be allowed to attend to his busi ness unmolested by attacks and demands for explanation—the “bank letters” will he laid up to mildew, and tho numerous “fax” which have liccn “kept before the people," will have been forgotten by their authors, cftcept a little grace may be given them unto repentance and repu diation. And Atlanta, even Atlanta, fiery as her own furnaces, will go into the cooling trough—A hiss and phiz next Monday, and: then Atlanta, too, will subside for a season. Wo spoke about the "issues" of this canvass —wbat are they—can the reader tell ? We defy him to do it. One issue was sought by some of the Congressional Oppositions to be laid down in a “Congressional Slave Code,” but this the State Opposition Convcntiou in Macon declined to adopt. Jt has been taken np by B. H. Hill and other Opposition orators, bat wc say without authority from the party. 478 pages This is a very valuable compend on Southern Domestic, Household and Home economy, of standard reputation, compiled by Mrs. Edg- worth, of Fort Valley, Houston county, Geor gia, and dedicated to Mrs. Elizabeth Thornton, of Camden, South Carolina, it will be seen from the title page, which we have copied above, that the work embraces every subject of house hold economy. The first ninety-six pages are devoted to the Kitchen Garden and to fruit cul ture—Cookery occupies the succeeding 138 pa ges—twenty-four follow on the preparation of Beverages—and Medical, Veterinary and Mis cellaneous recipes and directions conclude the volume.

Hull, it will he as hard for the editors to sub stantiate their assertion, as it is for them to prove their Bank charge against Gov. Brown from bis letter. There is not a word of truth in the assertion that cither of these gentlemen have “abandoned Brown and declared lor Akin.” The reputation of the American for veracity would not suffer if it was a little more cautious in its assertions.—Athens Banner. The Atlanta Intelligencer, of last Friday, has a note from W. II. Hull, Esq,, in which lie says “I ant content with the administration of our present Governor and shall certainly vote for his re-election.” The disclaimer ofthe Athens Banner is no doubt authoritative as to both. The “out for Akin’’ democracy of Georgia, will prob ably he confined to a lew politicians along the line of the State Road, who have sustained some personal loss, under lire economical administra tion of Superintendent Lewis. ucn, Lewis F. Hicks and Win. E. AVillinmson, ss j Esqs., were called to the Chair, and John E. Tor rence requested to act as Secretary. The oh- I ject of the meeting being explained by Z. A our friend Ranse, we protest against the injus tice of superseding him as the Demosthenes.— Miller may be the Cictro, but Ranse is the regu larly constituted Demosthenes of Ihc Opposi tion—has held the place for three years, and shall not be ousted with our consent.

Shall he not liavo it f Awake, Democrats, and let us do our whole duty by CoL Speer. • Senator Iverson's Letter. Wo copy from thc Empire State, in another place, a letter from Senator Iverson, to the peo ple of Carroll county. It will be seen that the study of the letter is to hold up Congressional Protection, or Douglas’ Squatter Sovereignty, as alternatives inevitable to the countiy. We undertake to say that neither of them will travel very far. In the first place, the Democratic pnrty and thc sound men of this country, have been working uow ten years to get this slavery question in tho Territories out of Congress, and they are not going to stultify' themselves by putting it back again there. In the second place, tho Democratic party never have endors ed and never will endorse Judge Douglas’ theo ry. No party on the non-intervention platform can do it without a felo dc se. Douglas, him- seff will have to explain or conic down or come up, for lie is bound to sec. and thc common sense of thc country is bound to see, that bis theory won’t hold water. Wc feel morally cer tain, Senator Iverson’s letter to tlie contrary •notwithstanding, that a party wielding thc gov ernment of this country any length of time, must settl? down on the true, .sound, non-inter vention principle, npd that this will be the set tled doctrine acquiesced in at lost by all. to rest before another followed to demonstrate their fertility in resources; their reckncss- ness now, or their stupidity, when they were either willing to support Gov. Brown or afraid to oppose him. And these have beeu the mighty State is sues : the “ Poor Old Woman“Thc Wood SbedV “The Bank Letter;’’ *• Thc Pig Iron;” and so on to the end of the noble con ceptions and splendid ideas on State policy, which have been illustrated in the series of mere blatant slanders against the Governor. With this chart of the Opposition canrass in thc State of Georgia for tho year of grace 183ft, we will let it go down to posterity as an illus tration of politics run out aud gone to seed.— Wc may safely say that no party ever went before a sensible people on such a showing lie- fore, and will never do it again. They have gone in on a general plea of Democratic de merit, in tlie face of prior confessions to thc contrary ; and have carried out their idea of j opposition uncoupled with a single substantive on account of slavery then, in achieving our in- stil^mnue their precipitous * dependence.

Woosteii, Sept. 10.—Senator Douglas had an enthusiastic reception here to-day. Thousands of people welcomed him at tlie depot. 11c spoke for about two hours, and was -patiently listened to throughout. His speech was by no means enthusiastically received. It was in the main but a rehearsal of bis Harper's article, lie claimed tliat tho Republicans held doctrines in regard to the Territories identical with those of King George thc Third and thc Tories of the Revolution, regarding tlie colonies. I Ie also at tacked the Attorney General Black’s review of his Harper article vvitli great bitterness—charg ed him with falsifying ami seeking to destroy tlie Democratic party—doing it anonymously, and with the purpose of striking down,,not only him (Douglas) but all thc leaders of the Demo cratic party in thc free States. He denied that lie (Douglas) held to doctrines in opposition to the Drcd Scott decision, but claimed that deci sion sustained his doctrines of popular sover eignty. He exhorted tho Democrats to redeem Ohio and tako position alongside of Illinois.— He was very bitter iu some portions of his speech. He was succeeded by Ramsey and I’ugli, who cacli spoke for about an hour.— From four to six thousand people were in attend ance during the speech of Senator Douglas.— More than half thc crowd had left thc ground before Mr. Pugh closed bis remarks. Senator Douglas has by no means increased his'reputa tion by bis speech or his manner of delivery. The other day a lady fell off the- Brooklyn, N.

When she was safe on deck again, her husband, who bad been a calm spectator of the accident, handed the brave fellow a shilling.

Southern Rights Party, and they will join it, the next they hoist such Union lovers as Win ter Davis, Bell and Crittenden, for tlie Presiden cy in 1860. Where is the man whose brain is so clouded with ignorance that he cannot sec that this inconsistency cannot be reconciled, and that such assertions arc only made to dupe some and catch the votes of others? There is another position of the Opposition Party that is truly not an enviable one. They say squatter sovereignty is in the Kansas Bill. So does Douglas. They have now adopted Douglas as their oracle; so liavc the Abolition ists done - the same thing. Hence we sec that two positions of the Know Nothing American Opposition Party South, are in complete har mony with thc Douglas Republicans of the North. Yct with these fonts' staring thtni- in the face, they still shriek ^quitter-sovereignty in thc Kansas Bill. Furthermore, Ls it not a strange circumstance that B. n. Hill, a short time ago, said tliat if any man refused to stand upon the Kansas Bill he was a traitor to the South, and now cries squatter sovereignty in the Bill ? What are wc to think of such a man and the Party which he rules in Georgia ? There are but two ways for tlie gentleman to get out of the dilemma in which he has placed himself and party. lie must either admit his knavery, or his stupid ignorance.
