What Maine Next!
Defeated in 1653, as the Constitutional Union
Party—beaten in 1855, at the Know Nothing
Party—rooted in 1857, as the American Party
—and annihilated in 185#, as the Opposition
Party—under what new name—under what
thin and shadowy disguise will that feeble and
fruitless, yet prurient and passionate organisa
tion, which has so long lucklessly striven for
power and place against the Democratic le
gions, next appear » That some new tangled
appellation will be gotten up—that -some other
transparent trick will be tried, and that some
other gaseous and airy platform will be construc
ted, upon which facile and pliant politicians may
cut fantastic capers for a brief space and sud
denly vanish, no more to astonish tho eager cu
riosity of the oft cajoled disciples, wc well know,
but what it will be, in what prolific brain plan
ned, or who the chief architects and builders
are to be, no human eye ran see. or human
tongue can tell.
If there was any such stuff as’ great leaders
are made of| and if there was timber for ships
and arms and ordinance and munitions of war
in the adverse elements, we might fear that in
the divisions which now exist, combinations
might be formedand strategies resorted to which
would in the end break the centre of our grand
and hitherto impregnable column.
But when we remember with how little skill
and tact the past battles liave been planned and
executed, andthat each campaign has been more
disastrous to them and triumpliant to us, wc arc
refreshed and cheered by the hope that so long
as Democracy is National, so long will it be suc
cessful, and that all the arts ami blandishments
and devices of the adversary will avail naught
against us.
If the Democratic party shall remain united
if no new and impracticable issues shall be
made—if the Cincinnati platform is preserved
intact, and no new planks put in or old planks
taken out, then wc shall not doubt as to the-re

der whatever banner they fight—whether they
come in sectional divisions or in unholy alii

Members In Town.
During the past week wc have had the plea
sure to meet Mr. Griffin, tho Senator from
Twiggs, Dr. McGehoo, the Senator from Hous- i Ust
ton, and Mr. Henry Taylor, a member elect : Terry, one Pcrley, and some subsequent altcr-
Tlic Terry anil Broderick Duel.
The California accounts by the North Star
are mainly engrossed with the particulars of
this fatal encounter—the death and-burial of
Broderick—the tremendous excitement existing
in the public mind—the quarrels of the papers
over it, and speculations on the probable con
sequences upon the peace of individuals and the j
community. A full understanding of the quar-
majority
one third from a jocose estimate made in an
impromptu speech before the nominating con
vention, in which the Governor thought his
majority would range somewhere with the
payment* made into the Treasury from the
State Road. This very pleasantly figured, in
the charitable construction of our opposition
friends, as "That B*ao." and furnished the
text for many a homily about vain and auda
cious boasting. Wc trust, if Gov. Brown is
at all dissatisfied with the actual result, he will
deem it an imperative duty to go up into Cass
at once, and condole with Col. Akin, whose
misery mnst put him in love with like minded
company. Let our ready wilted friend of
the Enquirer imagine the two '‘sorrowing
souls *’ comforting esch other by mutually off
setting miseries: ‘‘ Col. Akin.’’ says Gov.
Brown, “lam elected by only 20,000 majori
ty.” “And I,” say* Akin, “ am defeated by
that number.’’ “Col. Akin, I lost thirteen
counties in this State P* “And, I ” says Akin,
“ lost one hundred and sixteen counties, and
every Congressional district.’’ “Col. Akin,
in some few of these counties 1 ran behind the
Congressional ticket.” “ Bat. Gqy. Brown,
I ran behind every where.’’ “ I beat you
Col. Akin, but 574 in Cherokee, the county of
my residence.” “But my neighbors, says
Akin beat me nearly 200 in Cass.” “ I should
have gone about and canvassed,” says Brown?
“And I, says Akin, had much better stayed at
home.'* “I am 10,000 short of my mark.”
And I," says Akin, “ am twenty thousand
short of any mark at all.” “ Your Opposition
party was personal, vindictive and slanderous,”
says Gov. Brown. “ Opposition,'' do you call
it,” says Akin, “it had just opposing force
enough to get up a concussion which knocked
it into the middle of next week—like a bull
yearling against a locomotive.” In such
friendly interchange of grievances as this,
might these two dissatisfied gentlemen comfort
one another : provided always, any such dis
satisfaction exists on the part of Gov. Brown,
1 who has just been the recipient, in our judg
ment of one of the most flattering testimonials
of popular appreciation that ever was tendered
to any public man in Georgia. We will add
the farther proviso, however, that Col. Akin
begins the interview with an ample apology for

Tbe foregoing, from a Jeremiad, by the last
Thomasville Enterprise, over the election, is,
in one form or another, said by nearly all the
Opposition prints in the State. It is an anchor
thrown to the windward in view of coming
events next year. The ‘•Opposition’’ will then
be under the necessity of inaction, or of sup
porting Seward, or some man who is in favor
of Congressional prohibition, or who takes sub
stantially. the ground occupied by Judge
Dooglas; and. their defence then will be the
alleged fact of a Douglas party in Georgia now.
When the Opposition party met in Convention
at Macon, last summer, the more sagacious of
them saw what was coming, and were in favor
of playing a straight game. C. Peeples, Esq.,
made thc inaugurating speech of the campaign,
and when he said he was in favor of support
ing Seward, or any body, to beat the Demo
crats, ho did not care who, nine out of ten of
the delegates backed him with vociferous ap
plause- Thc Committee on resolutions in cau
cus voted out thc Congressional protection
platform, and it was not until B. Hill. Esq.,
reversed the programme by his anti-Douglas,
Congressional protection letter, that they took
the Southern Bights track and completely
changed thc order of battle. Hill was for pre
sent success and letting the future take care of
itself.
And now, disguised as Southern Champions,
they boldly challenge the allegiance of South
ern Rights men. They demand of Gov. Brown,
as the head of the democratic ticket, whether
he is going to support Douglas if uominated.—
We honor him for his contemptuous silence.—
Who set them np as Southern Rights Champi
ons ? or bow did it become him to surrender
his liberty and free agency as a citizen, in the
dim future, at thc demand of political oppo
nents ? So Gov. Brown was denounced as a
Douglas
Douglas
J may confiscate private property—a doctrine
which he denounces as a most “wicked and
dangerous heresy.’’ He championizes the
inviblability of property, and invokes the fiery
indignation of the public upon ua for ascrib-
such thing and nothing
ig—
all these pages, from the first to the last. Mr.
Douglas was merely flourishing his lance in
the empty air. He'had no ground for bis’ as
sertion; except a most unauthorized inference
of his own from onr denial that thc power ex
isted in the Territories. TheJTerritories must
wait till they become sovereign States before
they can confiscate property: that was our po
sition. Therefore, says the logic of Mr. Doug
las, all tho States in the Union may. do it now.
What right had he to make imputations of
heresy founded upon mere inference when our
opinion on the very point was directly express
ed in words so plain that mistake was im
possible ? Thc following sentences occur oh
page 12 r
” All free people know, that if they would
remain free, they must compel the Govern
ment to keep its hands off their private proper
ty; and this can be done only by tying them
up with careful restrictions. Accordingly our
Federal Constitution declares that ‘no person
shall be deprived of his property except by
due process of law,’ andthat ‘private property
shall not be taken for public use without just
compensation.’ It is universally agreed that
this applies only to the exercise of the power
by the Government of the United States. We
are also protected against the State govern
ments by a similar provision in tbe State con
stitutions. Legislative robbery is, therefore,
a crime which cannot be committed either by
Congress or by any State legislature, unless
it be done in flat rebellion to the fundamental
law of the land.”

Dear Sir,—I aavc but little to add to thc
usual programme of events in New York. AYe |

high comedy, lew. comedy, and every thing
which proves titat not only “the world's a
stage,” but the city of New York may be consi
dered a considerable of a play-house. AVe have
so many new artists who appear in old and new
characters so frequently, that their performances
are barely’ noticed, unless they are well known,
