Nothing nominees for those offices.
lion. Junius Wingfield.
We cheerfully give place to the following cor
rection from the Hon. Justus Wingfield :
Senate Chamber,
Milledgeville, Feb. 24, 1856. t
Dear Dir: I sec from the report published
in your paper, of the debate in the Senate upon the
motion to reconsider its action on the bill providing
for the sa'e of the Western and Atlantic railroad,
that 1 am assigned a position which I did not take
on that occasion. I am reported as having taken
a position in opposition to the motion to reconsider.
The very reverse was my position ; and so the
journal of the Senate speaks. Mv opinion was
then enunciated, and is now, that the present is
not the best time to sell the road, and f therefore
voted against it.
Very Respectfully, yours, Ac.,
Junirs Wingfield

Nomination of Millard Fillmore and V.
J. Donuelson.
Under the ordinary alignment of parties, which
existed iu the days of Whiggery and Democracy,
the nomination of their respective standard beav
ers, was regarded as an expression of the political
sentiments of the great National bodies which those
parties represented. Mr. Clay, for iustunce, was
the exponent, and a great one he was, of the lead
ing principles of the Whig party of this whole
Union. Mr. Polk held the same relation to the
Democratic party of the country. In those days,
parties were distinguished by their principles <•!
public policy.
We do not propose, at this time, to enter into
an examination of the relative merits of the gen
tlemen who have been nominated for President
and Vice President, by the American or Know
Nothing Council or Convention, in Philadelphia
The questions we desire to call attention to a:
these: What are the political principles of tic
parry that has placed Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Don
nrlson before the country ? Are they the same in
Georgia, as in Massachusetts? In Alabama, ua it.
Ohio? In Tennessee, as in Maine? If they nr,
not harmonious in sentiment, and their platform
of principles aud nomination of candidates nr
uot cordially responded to, what exhibit doe* tie
party make. They have no national principle' J
because they have no national existence. Mr. !
Banks is regarded as a good American in Massa j
ehusetts, and yet no true southern man should de
sire political affiliation with him.
If the Know Nothing party had a national e\
istenee, the recent nominations would be legiti
mate enough; but they have none, and their v aunt
ed party dignity or importance, has dwindled down
to a factious opposition to the Democratic party.
It must be apparent that the nomination of Mr
Fillmore, and Mr. Don.vki.son, can have no otiie;
object than to excite a factious contest, when tin
most important questions to the Southern people,
and the integrity of the Union, are seriously in
volved. At a time when every Hourthern In ur
should pulsate in unison, we are to be eatrang—i
and buffeted upon the raging billows of partis
strife. We did entertain the hope tiiat the vast it:
ternst... at stake In the approaching President;
contest, would have united the entire South, i
the spirit of faction has otherwise determined, ami
if now devolves upon “the otd defenders of the
Constitution” to rally, in the peerless majesty :
their might, aud successfully defend the integrity
of their principles, and transmit to their child] , ,
the blessings of our Government and country.
We stated some time ago, that it was the policy
of the Black Republicans to run a popular candidal,
for President in the free States, and that it was not
improbable tiiat the Know Nothings would vamp
up candidates to run in other States, where there
might be some little hope of success; and as the
Democrats were in the field, against both parties
or factious, the hope was indulged that the elec
tion might devolve upon the House of Representa
tives, and by a compromise, iu some way, a Blue];
Republican Know Nothing might be elected Pres
ident.
It is to effect this ulterior purpose, that Mr.
Fillmore, and Mr. Donxelson hare received the
nomination. In view of the result contemplated
the election by the House of Representatives—it e
invoke the opposition of every friend of the South,
to the nominations of the Know Nothing organiza
tion in Philadelphia.

The Journal de St. I'tursburtj contains a com
munication from the Russian Consul at New Or
leans, suggesting that Russian merchants should
make arrangements for obtaining corn direct from
America, at a less expense than it can be supplied j
via Liverpool and London. The same journal re
mat ks that as the least saving in the price would !
be of the- utmost importance, direct relations ought
at once to be established for opening this new
branch of commerce.

' Slavery before the Supreme Court.
We referred, some days ago, to the ease before
the Supreme Court of the United States, involving
certain constitutional rights ot slaveholders. The *
correspondent of the New York Tribune, writing
from Washington City, under date of February
18th, gives the following statement of the ease:
“As public attention has in some degree been
attracted to the case now before the Supreme Court
of the United States, which partiallv involves tlie
constitutionality of the Missouri Compromise, a
brief outline of the leading facts may prove accept
able and interesting. The case is docketed, Di ed
Scott, plaintiff in error, vs. John F. A. Sandford
defendant. The plaintiff', a man of color, brought
the original suit iu the Circuit Court for Missouri
to try his right to freedom, claiming to have been l
emancipated by his master having taken him to re
side in the State of Illinois, which act, it is de
clared by the Constitution of tiiat State’ operated
to liberate him from slavery.
At the trial, the plaintiff read iu evidence u ,
statement of tacts agreed to between the parties as :
follows : Iu the year 1834, the plaintiff, Dred Scott,
v\u> anegro slave belonging to Dr. Emerson, who
was a surgeon in the army of the United States.
During that year, 1K34, Dr. Emerson took Scott j
trom the State o{ Missouri to the military post at ;
Rock Island, in the State of Illinois, and held him I
there as a slave until the. month of April or May,
1880, about two years. At the time last mention
ed, Dr, Emerson removed Scott from the military
post at Rock Island to the military post at Fort
-Snelling, situated on the west bank ‘of the Missis
sippi river, in the Territory known as Upper Louis
iana, acquired by the United States of France, and
lying north of latitude SC 30’ north, and north of
the State of Missouri. Dr. Emerson held Scott in
slavery at Fort Snelling from the Spring of i -36,
until the year 1838, two years more, and making
four years dunngwhich he resided on free soil.
In the year 1835, Harriet—named in the second j
count of tiie plaintiff's declaration—was the negro i
slave of Major Taliaferro, who belonged to die i
army of the United States. During that vear— i
1885—Major Taliaferro took Harriet to Fort'Snell
ing, a military post situated as before stated, and j
kept her there as a slave until the year 1836, and !
then sold and delivered her as a slave at Fort |
Snelling unto I)r. Emerson, already named. Dr. 1
Emerson held Harriet in slavery at" Fort Snelling i
until the year 1838.
Iti the year 1336, Dred Scott and Harriet, at Fort
Snelling, with the consent of Dr. Emerson, who
then claimed to be their master and owner, inter
married and took each other for husband and wife. I
Eliza and Lizzy—named in the third count of the j
ihuntifTs declaration—are the fruit of that mar- i
iage. Eliza is about fourteen years old, and was
torn on boa>-d the steamboat Gipsey, north of the
icrth line of the State of Missouri, and upon the
river Mississippi. Lizzy is about seven years old,
uid was born m the State of Missouri, at’ the mili
ary post called Jefferson Barracks,
Tn the year 1838, Dr. Emerson removed Scott
tnd Harriet, and their daughter Eliza, from Fort
snelling to the State of Missouri, where thev have :
ever since resided. Before the commencement of ;
the suit. Dr. Emerson sold and conveyed Scott,
Harriet, Eliza and Lizzy to John F. A. Sanford, of |
New York, the present defendant, as slaves, and he i
has ever since claimed to hold them as such.
These were the material points in the evidence j
adduced before the Circuit Court in Missouri, and \
Dred Scott prayed the Court to instruct the Jury j
that, upon the facts agreed tin by the parties, they i
ought to find for him. The Court refused to give j
this instruction, but instructed that the law was j
with the defendant, and the Jury so found on all ;
the issues presented, in this way the pending ap
peal has come before the Superior Court here. ‘ i
The court below decided against Scott on two
grounds—first, that by bis return to Missouri his
master’s right, dormant while residing in Illinois,
was revived ; and second, that the Constitution of
Illinois was a penal law, which the Courts of other
Slates were not bound to enforce. These grounds
were also taken in the opinion of the Supreme-
Court of Missouri, in a case which Scott brought
against his former owner, Dr. Emerson, in which
cause a majority of the bench overruled the doe
trine previously and uniformly recognized iu j
Missouri, and generally elsewhere, that the remov \
al of a slave bv his master into a free State makes j
him free forever. Judge Gamble, who delivered u
j disseuting opinion on that occasion, held the fid
i lowing language : “In this State (Missouri) it has j
! been recognized from the beginning of the Gov
! eminent as a correct position in law, that the mas
ter who takes his slave to reside in a State or Ter
ritorv where slavery is prohibited, thereby email- j
cipates his slave.”
The plaintiff' rests his right to freedom upon the j
benefits conferred by the Constitution of Illinois up- i
on him during two years' residence there, and subse
quently, during liis residence of two years at Fort
snelling, upon the restriction in the act admitting
Missouri as a State into the Union. Both of the*.-
prohibitions are in the same words substantially,
with only the difference in application between a
State and Territory, and both exclude slavery em
phatically.
Birth-Place of Washington.
We find in the Richmond Enquirer, of the loth
; inst , the following interesting correspondence,
I laid before the legislature of Virginia, by Gover
j nor Wise, in relation to the birth place of George
(Washington :
“Executive Department, <
“ Richmond, Feb. 9, 1856. j
i “ To the Senate and /bouse of Delegates of the Gener
al Assembly of the State oj Virginia :
“ Gentlemen l take pleasure in communicating
to you the accompanying correspondence of the
Executive with Mr. L. W. Washington. Through
me he presents the sites of the birth place of the
father of his country, and of the home and the
graves of his progenitors in America, ‘to the State
of Virginia, in perpetuity, on condition solely that
the State shall cause these places to be permanent- :
Iv enclosed by an iron fence, based on stone foun
dation, and shall mark the same by suitable and i
i modest though substantial,: tablets, to comment- j
orate for the rising generations these notable j
spots.’
“ I recommend that provision be made, by law, I
to accept the grant on the condition it prescribes, j
The vault is decayed and needs repairs ; the birth
place will require a porter’s lodge, tlie house liuv- i
mg been burnt many years ago; and the grounds j
will require for the enclosure about three hundred
and fifty feet of fence, as proposed, which will cost
about £5 per foot. An appropriation of *2OOO will
ultimately be required to comply with the condi
tion. With the highest respect,
Henry A. Wise.
The following is the correspondence referred to 1
in the above:

LOUISVILLE AGRICULTURAL
WORKS.
KENTUCKY CORN AND COB MILL.
IT is well known that there is great economy in
crushing or grinding the kernels of all grain
before feeding it to stock, and that there is much
nutriment in the cob when properly broken or
ground. And the only reason that mills arranged
to produce these desired results have not been
more generally introduced among planters and
farmers, has been their complex arrangement and
high cost.
In the KENTUCKY CORN AND COB MILL,
we claim to have produced a machine at once effi
cient, substantial and cheap, while its arrangement
is so simple that the most ordinary hand can ad
just and operate it. This machine, unlike anv other,
is regulated by means of a single set-screw', which
is easily moved by hand, and is applied directly
under the centre of the mill.
Any one using these Mills will find a clear saving
of one quarter of their Corn over the old plan ot
feeding.
We warrant our Mills to give entire satisfaction.
Purchasers may use them for thirty days, and if
not satisfied, can return them and get their money.
They will grind CORN and COB as fine as de
sired, at tho following rate, per hour, with one
horse:
No. 1, 4 to 5 bushels per hour, weight 350 lbs.
Price 825,00.
No. 2, 6 to 8 bushels per hour, weight 400 lbs
Price 230.00.
The above prices include the complete Mill,
ready to hitch to without any further expense, ami
can be set in operation in five minutes’ time.
MILLER, WINGATE A CO.’S KENTUCKY
HARVESTER.
We are now building fur the harvest of 1856, five
hundred Combined Reaping und MOWING MA
CHINES,_ of our own construction, and to which
we will give the most unqualified warrantee as to
their performance in every respect; and that they
shall boos better material, construction and work
manship, than any other similar Machine in use.
Price, cash, $140.00.
Circulars containing a cut and full description of
this Machine, will he forwarded on application to
us by letter or otherwise.
Orders should he forwarded early. Liberal dis
count to dealers.
PENNSYEVANIA
Four Horse Power and Thresher.
With Tumbling Shaft complete.
We are now engaged in making 500 of these
THRESHERS for the harvest of 1884. And from
our experience and success last season, together
with the additional precaution of having secured
at an early day thoroughly seasoned lumber, and
other materials of unexceptionable quality, we are
satisfied that we will lie able to turn out Machines
to which we can and will give the most unqualified
endorsement.
The advantages claimed by us for the i’E.N.N-
S1 E\ ANIA THRESHER over any other in gen
eral use, are the following:
1. Its great strength and simplicity.
Its ability to do more work each'da\ than can
i be performed by any other known Machine driven
by four horses.
3. 11 is portable, and is easily hauled by two
horses on a wagon ; and can bo loaded or unload
ed, and put in operation in thirty minutes.
4. We have also succeeded in removing what has
! heretofore been so objectionable in other Machines,
to wit: the necessity for great speed on the part of
the horses - our Machine being so geared as to ac- i
compbsh greater motion with less speed in driving.
We have manufactured and sold over (imhundred j
of these Machines during the past season, (and in
no instance has one been returned,) under the fol
lowing WARRANTEE:
We warrant every Machine to be well made, and
of good material, in every respect, and to do its i
work to the satisfaction of the purchaser, or refund
the inonev.
