“TEXAS.”
The Communication in this paper over the sig
natnre above, was written by an intelligent gen

Brown would do honor to the position, and service

the people desire to keep him in his present posi

Neither War nor Peace.
A STATE OF UNCERTAINTY,
j Some time back we stated that we believed the
1 oolicy of Lincoln was to keep the Southern Con
| fedcracy in a state of doubt and uncertainty. Sub
( sequent events have confirmed this opinion. He
baa many objects to gain by such a course. If In
commences a war upon us, lie drives off the bor
| d-r slave States. If he makes peace with us, h,
1 backs down Horn the Chicago platform and di
vide* bis party at the North. We may depend
1 upon it, that he will do neither as long as lie can
j avoid it. By keeping up a threat of coercion,
and a promise of collecting the revenue, he sat
• *fies bis own party at the North, and keeps them
from disbanding, and at the same time, forces the
States of tne Southern Confedeiacy to keep theii
military establishment on a war footing. B;
professions of peace, he gives aid and comfort to
•he Union or submission party in the bordei
'tales, aud keeps those States Iron) coming to any
decision, or from taking any decided position —
Vlr. Lincoln, or rather Mr. Seward, believes, that
by keeping the people at the South continually
exieited and confused, he will eventually bring
them to terms ; that is to his terms, for the Black
Republicans have never offered any to us. Thi
luestion now to be determined, is, liow long the
•eoplc of the South will suffer Mr. Lincoln and
•is Cabinet to trifle with them in this way ? At
jresent, the whole business prospects of the coun-
ry is paralized. and the whole country is kept ex
cited for the sole benefit of a few Black Repubii-
•■an politicians. Some people profess to see great
-visdom in this shuffling policy, whilst we can.
very easily, see good reasons why Mr. Seward
pursues such a policy, we can see none, why
•>ur Commissioners at Washington should be snt-
sfied with it.
The .Hiliiory hi yiacon.
We spent a day or two last week in Macon,
where we had the pleasure of witnessing the
• endexvous of the Volunteers called out by Gov.
Brown. We have made copious extracts from th<
ohunns of the Telegraph, touching the move
ments of the military, and need not rehearse them
•iere. We can speak pr mdly of our volunteer
citizen soldiery. We saw men in ranks at Macon
who have left home, all its endearments and com
mrts—reiinqtiis ed a life of comparative ease and
uxury for the toils and hardships of the tented
field—aud have sacritied their business at the eali
of country and the promptings of duty. Noble
men ! A country with such citizens, cannot b'
conquered Especially did we notice th s com
■nendable spirit in the ranks of the Baiuhridge
Volunteers, the Quitman Guards, of Forsyth, th*
«Vashington Rifles, of Sandersville, and tin
Southern Rights Guards of Fort Valley. In these
•Jompauies are talented and eminent lawyers,
wealthy farmers aud worthy mechanics They
ooked at home in their plain blue and red flannel
•hirts, a:.d se* med to have made up their minds to
go through the campaign like true soldiers
What was noticeable, ev^ry Company was full to
overflowing ; and several had to reject many up
plications. We had promises from several of “the
ioys" to keep us posted on their arrival at the
• seat of war.”
Charleston and its defences.
We are permitted to make an extract from a
letter written by a Professor in the College ot
•South Carolina, to a friend in this city, which, at
this time, will be read with interest:

it. A cry likely. We should think that old Abe' *' ’ ’*

No man has fought harder to sustain the Black
Republican cause, than this same Mr. Nelson. No
man in Congress contributed more accordiugto his
ability, to strengthen the hands, encourage the
hearts, aud stiffen the backbones, of the Abolition
ists, than this renegade son of Tennessee. No
wonder that President Lincoln was glad to see
him, aud uo wonder that Mr. Nelson was wry
much pleased with the President. A fellow feel
ing makes men pleased with each other. Not even
the sight ot Horace Greeley or Joshua K. Gid-
dings could raise so many pleasnreable associa
tions iu the mind of old Abe, as the sight of this
his champion from Tennessee. The interview
was no doubt very pleasant to both parties. But
w hat can the people of Tennessee think of the
vile apostate, of a man elected to represent a
siaveholding district, giving aid and comfort to the
Abolition chieftain, bowing and cringing before a
man who was elected to office, on account of his
hitter hostility to the dearest interests of the
State aud the section, w hich Mr. Nelson has dis
graced ?

It has been earnestly denied that Abraham Lin
coln was au Abolitionist., or that the Black Repub
lican party that elected him wqs an Abolition par
ty. If we examine fora short time Mr. Lincoln's
especial favorites, we may coine to a correct con
elusion to what party lie belongs. Who then are
the uien that have received the special favors of
the President elect, and what is their political
history ? Iu the first place he has chosen for liis
chief counsellor anJ prime minister, Wm. II
Seward of New York, who for many years has
been the head and front ot the Abolition host, and
his motto is, that slavery and freedom cannot exist
under the same governm at. He leaves the slave
holders no alternative but emancipation or seces
sion. Next in succession to Mr Lincoln's favot
is Salmon P. Chase of Ohio the advocate of free
negro suffrage and negro equality. Among his
foreign appointments, are the infamous Anson
Burlingame who demanded an anti-slavery consti
tution, an anti slavery Bible and an anti slavery
God. Next comes the notorious Red Republican
and infidel Ca. 1 Shurz. and last, but not least, is
the veteran Abolitionist, Joshua R. Giddings. A
fourth, who would be a match for these could tin
be found on earth, unless Satan should leave liis
brimstone throne and consent to receive a foreign
appointment from Lincoln. 3 hese are tho men,
w ho are to represent the once proud and indepen
d'-nt citizens of Virginia, Kentucky and North
Carolina. We say uothiug about 'I ennessee, for
men who have been represented iu Congress by
Ethridge and Nelson, can stand anything. But
how can the constituents of Hunter and Mason,
Xeui York, state that the London press, particular
ly the Times, denounces Lincoln’s Inaugural.—
The London Telegraph says that England cannot
afford to see the Southern ports blockaded a single
day, and that 1- ranee and England will combine
to prevent coercion.

GOVERNOR BROWN.
The good people of Georgia seem to overlook
the important fact, tliat a great man belongs to his
whole country. We all have a claim in Governor
Brown, ills praise is now on every Southern lip.
With the single exception of Jefferson Davis, he
is first in the affections and confidence of the
■Southern people W ith a quick instinct, they
measure his nets against the mere words of others.
He has done more than any one man to hack the
South Carolina movement He delivered the right
blow at the right tune, a blow which carried Geor
gia out of the Union, and swept the remaining Cot
ton States with her.
We all want Gov Brown in the Senate of the
Confederate States, liie South needs him there,

Death #f Dr. Baber# Calliaa.
We deeply regret to announce the death of Dr.
Robert Collins, of his city, a melancholy
event which took place yesterday morning at 6
o'clock. It is well known that Dr Collins has
been in failing health for more than a year, and,
for the last six months, has been obliged to retire
from active business, and his friends have been
deeply pained to see him wasting away, day by
day, with an incurable disorder. To those famili
ar with Macon, we need not say that for many
years Dr. Collins has held a leading position in
almost every public enterprise, and his amplep*-cu
uiary resources were always heely drawn upon iu
hebali of public and private charities. His hos
pitality was of the most expansive and liberal
character, and in short, he was one of those men
of mark and influence in our community, whose
withdrawal leaves a lasting void behind them
We omit further remarks now, as we shall
hereafter publish a lull obituary notice.

The Vessel fired into at Charleston.
Since copying the article from the Charleston
Courier, the vessel fired into from the forts on
Morris' Island has arrived in our port, and we
are enabled to give full particulars of the affiir :
The schooner is the R H Shannon, Capt Menfs,
of Boston, and she was hound to this city with a
cargo of ice, consigned to A. Haywood. On
Wednesday she was shrouded for many hours in
a dense fog, during which she drifted through
mistake over Charleston bar. Soon after the fog
lifted, th- Captain, not knowing his wher, abouts.
found himself nearly abreast the fort on Morris’
Island and while cogitating over his latitude and
longitude, h# was greeted with a salute from the
fort. He immediately ran up his colors—the
stars and stripes—lint that demonstration seenu-d
an unsatisfaetmy answer to their summons. Sev
eral shot (.thirty-two’s) were fired into liis -igging
one of which passed through his ninin<ail and
another liis top sail In the midst of Ins dileni
nia, not knowing wher • he was, or the object of
this hostile demonstration, a boat from Fort Sum
ter came to bis relief, and being made acquainted
of the facts, he lost no time in putting to sea.
The schooner suffered no material damage from
the shots, though one of them came most uncom
fortahly near th* head of one of the crew. Capt
M thinks there is no mistake about the Morris'
Island boys being excellent marksmen !

Snprrnif Court.
The following decisions have been delivered by
the Supreme Court since the commencement of the
present session at tlrs place :
Constantine Wood, plaintiff in error, rs Coosa
& Chattooga River Railroad Company—from su
perior Court ot Walker county. Revised on the
ground : That the court erred in charging the Ju
ry. “tlial it is no defense to this action that the
Commissioners waived the necessity of defendant's
paying the five per cent.; and that it does not lie
in his mouth to sty that his subscription so re
ceived and allowed by the Commissioners is. for
that reason, void.” it being the opinion of this
court that the payment of live aoiinrs per share
was a condition precedent to the subscription;
w ithout the payment of the five dollars per share,
was illegal and void, and cannot be enforced by
the corporation.
John Killet, plaintiffin error, rs. th State of
Georgia—from Superioi Court of Catoosa county.
Reversed on the ground that the Judge erred in
charging the Jury, that if the defendant carried
the pistol with only the butt exposed to view, and
the barrel concealed, this was no! carrying it iu an
open manner, and fully exposed to view, and they
would be authorized to fiud him guilty. The
charge should have been, that if the defendant
carried the pistol as exposed to view that it could
readily be seen and recognized as a pistol hy one
having liis person in view, he carried it iu legal
contemplation, in an open manner, and fully ex
posed to view; but if it were so far concealed
(though partially exposed) that it could not be
seen and readily recognized as a pistol, it was car
ried in a manner forbidden by the statute, and the
deteudant was guilty.
William A Nishet, plaintiff in error, rs Wm
J Cantrell—from .Superior Court of Gordon coun
ty—judgment affirmed
Webster & M nil, plaintiffs in error, vs. T. B
Wooten & Co. From Superior Court of Catoosa
county—judgment affirmed
H. J Nprayberry, plaintiff in error, vs. A. B
Culberton—from riuperior Court of Walker coun-
ty—judgment affirmed.
James N. Scott, plaintiff in error, vs John H.
Arthur and John Harkins—from Superior Court
of Gordon county. Reversed, on the ground that
the Court erred in granting an injunction for bal
ance due upon the judgment at law over aud above
the amount paid by debt in error without requi
ring the payment of the sum so paid, with inter
est to time of payment. Further, that the Court
below order ail injunction to issue for said bal
ance upon the paymeut of said sum of two bun
dred dollars, with interest until paid; and lurther,
that the judgment of the Court refusing au in
junction for the entire amount be affirmed.
DOUGLAS HEADED BY BRECKINRIDGE.
Mr. Breckiuridge in his recent speech upon his
anti coercion resolutions, took Mr. Douglas to task
for some untimely and ill-mented compliments to
the Black Republican party, and put Inin hors du
combat on the testimony ot the Republicans them
selves. We copy a spirited account of it trom
the Washington correspondence of the Charleston
Courier:
“The Senate has been the scene during the past
few da;sot some important debates The speech
delivered by Douglas the othei day in which he
declaied that the Republicans had. “in a spirit
of patriotic devotion,'’ acceeded to the just de
mands to the South, is r- gardtd as one of the most
absurd Hnd ridiculous declarations, aud calculated
to strengliten tustesd of weaken the Republican
party. The splendid oratorical effort of Breckin
ridge in reply is worthy ot ail praise. It is for-
tiina e for the benate and the country that he is
out of the Vice President's Chair for his voice and
action are no Jonger restricted by parliamentary
lines. He demonstrated that the Republicans had
practically yielded nothing iu permitting all the
territory to be organized without the insertion of
their hobby of Congressional prohibition of the
Chicago platform ( specially named that such a
clause need not ba adopted only when necessa
ry.”
So far as they have yielded anything, he said,
“that the republican party was hardening aud
consolidating every day, and one of the calamities
of the times was its arraying itself in solid phalanx
on its distinctive principles in the face of tremen
dous events. If it gives up a fort, it does so with
teats, and declares that it is not for civil but for
military reason. For the Government the most !
radical and aggressive men have been selected.
For the Cabinet, for foreign Missions, lor Sena
tors, and other officers, the most radical men have
been chosen. Tie senate had confirmed ev
ery day men who have trampled the constitution
under their feet and refused to recognize the obli
gation to return fugitivi s from labor—men who
have boasted on the floor of the House of Repre
sentatives and elsewhere, that they > ad be?n per
sonally concerned in running off slaves. This
evidence looks in any other direction than that of
yielding any ot the aggressive or destructive fea
tures of the Republican party. This is the cause
which has sundered this Confederacy and if not
remedied will sunder it still more.
Not feeling satisfied with these facts, Mr. B.
turned to the Republicans before him. and with a
firm voice and flashing eye asktd them there in
the presence of the Senate and the country, if they
had yielded one distinctive feature of their prin
ciples? The venerable Collamer raised his hea"
from the desk and mildly replied : “Not that we
are aware of. - ’ While old Ben Wade, who was
sitting very near Breckiuridge cried out: “Never,
never.' The response fell with tremendous effect
on the crowded gallaries, while Douglas appeared
annihilated, vainly endeavoring to show that the
Republicans did uot know their own minds.
