“He that is once admitted to the right

tinguished Illinois Senator towards the South
has been grossly misrepresented. Tho oppo
sition have charged him with being an Aboli
tionist—“worse than Seward, Chase or Hale,”
and many of the Southern democratic prints,
in their eagerness to repudiate his doctrine of
“Territorial Sovereignty,” seem inclined to sanc
tion these aspersions. That they are utterly
groundless, this document conclusively shows.
There is no man in the Republic more compro-
raitted against, and hostile to, tho free soil and
Abolition party than Mr. Douglas. But while
conceding all this and willing to accord all cred
it for it, the reply is an utter failure to vindi
cate his doctrine, simply because tho doctrine
itself is untenable in every aspect of the case.
It can’t be sustained. We publish a little more
than half of Judge Douglas’ article this week,
and in the next number will try to give the re
mainder, together with the shortand pithy Re
joinder of Judge Black, which disposes of
Judge Douglas reply in a manner equally brief
and satisfactory. With the conclusion of these-

Sale of Vain able Building Lots.
By reference to our advertising columns it I mai, y years,
will be seen that Benton will offer at Auction Wnnient be the object, the selections of its ar-
Eclcctic Magazine.
Mr. Daniel E. Paris, publisher’s Agent for
this Magazine, is in town, and may be seen at
Boardman’s, where also, may be found spe
cimens of the periodical and tho Engravings.—
Tho Eclectic is too old and well known to
need particular discription. It is a monthly of
150 largo octavo pages, mado up for the most
part of choice selections from tho whole Euro
pean periodical press. Since its removal to
New York, it has added to its old attractions,
very elegant Engravings on Steel by Sartain,
and large premium pictures to cash paying sub
scribers, which aro worth, at customary prices,
the amount of tho subscription.

I do not believe that the member from

Clay, or the Senator from a Calhoun; nor
do I believe that Mr. could follow Plato in
his vast ideal comprehensions, or . become cthe-
realised and.spiritualized as many of the Saints
in tbe calendar. The truth in fine writing is
not always true philosophy, Emerson contra.
These epistolary reflections are the results of
a week’s attendance in the General Assembly, a
body for which I entertain a profound respect,
as being the concentrated essence of all the wis
dom learning and patriotism of the great Empire
State of the South. I wish to be understood,
however, that this profound respect is only pri-
ma facie, as the lawyers say, and tho onus may
be overcomo before the case is terminated.
The scramble, it was a scramblo for Judge of
the Supremo Court, has terminated in the elec
tion of Richard F. Lyon of Dougherty, over
Judge Benning. Judge Stephens was elected
without opposition, and I presume he has just
ly earned the compliment, as all sides seem to
agree that his short judicial career has been em
inently successfuL
Your readers, doubtless, know more of Judge
Lyon than your correspondent, but it is due to
him as one of the novi homilies to state that his
friends and brethren of the bar, give him a high
character as a man and a lawyer, and they
speak confidently, of his capacity in all respects
to perform all the duties of the high and res
ponsible position to which he has successfully
aspired. Judge Benning goes off the Bench a
victim of a mania, and not a principle. He
wqi beaten not because be was corrupt or un
learned, or non compos, but because he had de
cided a case not in conformity with the views
of a majority of the people of the Stale. In
the earnest canvass which was made against him
I did not for once hear his integrity as a Judge
or gentleman impugned, but when the Bank
case was mentioned, there was the rub.
It is now considered the settled policy of
Georgia, that a Judge must never mistake to
decido in fevor of the few versus the many, for
if he does, the many seek their vengeance.
I very much fear that the workings of this
rule will not strengthen the court or contribute
anything to its popularity, with the solidarity
of the people.
Will you not Mr. Editor raise the voice of
warning against the future and manifold evils
of this present elective judiciary system.

strong candidate with the Democracy, and if a
caucus be held he will be nominated.
On a motion to postpone, Mr. Hartridge, a
member of the House from Chatham, made his

undoubtedly a gentleman of great ability, and
for so young a man, one of the coolest and most

The McCoomb boys have an excellent tabli
thing with which he meets, appearingso differ
ent from what he has been accustomed to see
ing. “Tho Great Father of M'aters,” “the great
Bivcr," 2000 miles in length, of which he was
taught, and which excited his wonder in the
days of childhood, is now seen by him for tho
first time—the peculiarity of tho steamers with
their bows resting oi tho shore or levee, their
low decks but a few inches above tho water,
their immense upper works, and frail construc
tion, which reminds you of the Yankee who es
tablished a ship yard on the Mississippi, and
commenced building steamers with a jack-knife
and a pilo of shingles—you would think he was
not such a great fool after all—the crackling of
tho fires in tho furnaces, the boilers being on
the deck forward, and tho engines aft, tho his«-
ing of steam, tho noisy jargon of the stokers,
aud fifteen or twenty negroes who are “toting’’
baggage and freight. On theso stearaers the
lower deck presents a curious scene—you see a
medley of cattle, horses, boxes, bales, barrels,
wood, furniture, the machinery and boilers of
the boat, all apparently in one confused heap,
intermixed with emigrants who aro trying to
locate themselves as comfortably as possiblo.
You hear tho order to hoavo off when tho men
take setting poles and shove the boat from the
shore, tho engines are put in motion, and wo aro
soon underfull headway. "When tho landings aro
mado at night, a jack filled with burning wood
and pitch, is extended OTer tho bows to give
light, in obtaining wood. Tho packets make a
contract with a woodman to furnish the wood
from a scow, which is taken in tow by the steam
er, which keeps on her course, while tho hands
arc unloading her. Attar a portion of thewood
is transferred to the steamer, sho is cast off and
a steamer belonging to tho samo line oh her re
turn, takes her back whilo taking the balance of
her wood, to the place from whence she started,
thereby saving tho timo it would require to stop
and wood at a landing. On my lato trip up the
river wo camo up to one of theso scows, when
tho following dialogue took place between the
Captain of tbe steamer, and tho Captain of the
scow, who was the only man on board : Cap
tain of steamer. “How much wood have you on
board ?” Captain of scow—“ Sixteen cord, Cap-
ting, good measure, I don’t measure my wood
with a coon skin and the tail thrown in every
time; jest bring down.your old beampole an
try.it on, reckon you’ll find it all right, Cap-
ting." The Captain sends the clerk to measure
the wood, after that is found satisfactory, the
hands commence transferring- it to the steamer,
while the woodman comes on board and gets
his pay in cash, a jug of whisky, and sundry
drinks at the saloon. He is getting $125 per cord
for his wood, which was worth $3 and $3 50
three years since. With his money, whiskey,
and lantern, he goes on board his scow, and is
cast off from tho steamer on a dark rainy night,
solitary and alone, until another steamer comes
along and takes him to his Island, where his
family are located in their log-cabin." As you
ascend the Mississippi, you become more and
more interested. The scenery cannot be excelled
in beauty probably in the world—the river wind
ing its course through a valley, varying from
two to four miles in width, its channel chang-
ing from one side to the other, forming thous
ands of beautiful islands covered with groves of
trees and grass, having the appearance of lawns
which have been carefully cultivated by the
hand of man,—the blufis on each side of you
from one hundred to five hundred feet in hight,
their summits beautifully rounded and covered
with grass, dotte^with trees liko orchards.
You see on their rocky, perpendicular sides
the old water lines of tho Mississippi, one hun
dred and fifty feet above its present level, which
refer you to the remote ages of the past, when
the prairies on her borders wero the beds of
vast lakes, when there was a fall either at Rock
Island or at tho Tower near St Louis, even
more stupendous than Niagara, and which, by
tho samo process which is slowly but surely
cutting a channel from Lake Ontario into Lake
Eric, this great extent of country in tho north,
west, was drained. The same process is going
on at St Anthony Falls, which have receded
twenty feet tEe yast year. As you proceed up
the Mississippi you arc constantly meeting
with objects of interest connected with that
once numerous and powerful tribe of Indians,
the Dahkotahs, more commonly called tbe
Sioux. "While passing the largo villages, here
called cities, the fields just harvested, the trade
and commerce seen on every hand, the traveler
can hardly realize that only twelvo or fifteen
years since these valleys, hills and prairies, re
sounded with tho war-whoop. Arriving at
Wcenonaff so lately the residence of Wapasliaw,
wc find a small city containing between three
and four thousand inhabitants. Lake Pepin is
about fifteen miles in length and six miles in
breadth. On the eastern shore of this lake is the
Maidens Rock of theDakotahs, which is 'about
450 feet in hightb, tho last hundred of which
is a bald precipitous crag. This bluff is seen for
miles, and as the steamer approaches, the pas
sengers coming on the deck, evince the inter
est in that locality. The story in connection
with this bluff is as follows:
“In the days of the great Chief Wapasliaw,
there lived at the village of Kcoxa, which stood
on the site of tho town that now bears her
They have at the tail a kind ol scale which
makes a noise, and this is called the rattle.’’.
In my next letter I shall reach St Paul, and
in due course'shall give you some account of
the Falls of St Anthony— the celebrated Falls
of Minnc-ha-ha—a trip up the Minnesota River,
and a day spent with the Winnebagoes.

Mi. Editor—For several days of last week a
party of 6tispicious individuals were lurking
about the plantation of Captain J. P. Snipes,
in Upson county. Thoy were known to be in
communication with negroes, and refused to
give any satisfactory account of their destina
tion and purposes. They were finally driven
off by the citizens of the neighborhood, and came
by-a circuitous route to the lower part of this
county, where they again struck up a camp.—
Several gentlemen from Butler waned on them
for the purpose of a-cortainiug, if possible, their
business. The party consists of. two men,
three women and two children; one of the lat
ter about eleven, the other three or four years
old. Of tho whole number only three of them
uld be induced to talk, and these, in talking
and givo back to the people of Baltimore that

true, you will not find everything here as you may

case in a Dakotah family, she bore tho name of
Wcenonah. A young hunter of the sime
band was never happier than when he played
the flute in her hearing. Having thus signified
his affection, it was with the whole heart recip
rocated. The youth begged from his friends
all that he could, and went to her parents, as is
the custom, to purchase her for his wife, but
his proposals were rejected. A warrior, who
had often been on the war path, whose head
dress plainly told the number of scalps he had
wrenched from the heads of Ojibways, had also
been to the parents, and they thought that she
would be more honored as an inmate of his tee
pee. W’eenonah, however, could not forget her
first love; and, though he had been forced
away, his absenco strengthened her affections,

About four weeks since, one of tho compositors

icines, which bad net effect Finally, we gave bim
one bottlo of Wistor's Balsam of Wild Cherry. It
