Accident on the Georgia Itailroad.
A gentleman by the name of Mr. Nicholas M.
I.bwis, who resides at Lagrange, fell from the cars
■in the Georgia railroad, on Friday night, about
eleven o’clock, and was severely injured. His
left foot and about half of the leg between the
knee and ankle was so badly crushed as to render
amputation necessary. The accident happened
either while passing from one car to the other,
while the train was in rapid motion, or he fell
from his position while standing on the platform.
As soon as the accident was discovered the train
was stopped and Mr. Lewis taken up and carried
back two miles to Greensboro’, where medical at
tendance was promptly obtained.
A gentleman by the name of Mr. Kent, from
Mississippi, was missed from the train during Fri
day night. His family was in the train, and came
<*« to this city, where they remained in painful
doubt as to the fate of Mr. Kent, until the yester
day afternoon's train brought him to Augusta.
He was fortunately unhurt, although he stepped
from the train while the cars were rapidly moving.
He was asleep at the time, but doubtless soon wide
awake.
Although the railroad companies of the country
have plueards, on all their cars, warning passen
gers to keep off the platforms, while trains are in
motion, yet for all that the warnings are often dis
regarded, and serious results occasionally follow.

With W hom aud Against Whom He
Would have Voted.
Mr. Miller, the American candidate for Con
gress in this District, announces in his addresses
to the people, that if he had been a member of the
House of Representatives, at the time of the pas- 1
sage of the Kansas-Nebraska act, with the lights i
before him, he would hare voted against, that Meas
ure. Let us see with whom and against whom, he
| would have voted, in voting against the Kansas
i Nebraska act.
1. He would have voted with every Aboli
\ tionist and Black Republican in the House of
Representatives, including Giddixgs of Ohio, Gkr
; ritt Smith of New York, Grow of Pennsylvania, i
Matteson of New York, Washburn of Maine,
Washburn of Illinois, and Campbf.i.i. of Ohio.
2. He would have voted with every Northern Rep
resentative, in favor of excluding slavery from
Kansas, by enforcing a compromise, which they
had violated whenever it had operated in favor of
the South.
3. He would have voted against every Represen
tative in Congress from this State, who was pre
sent at the time the bill was passed, including the
Hon. David A. Reese, then the Representative from
Seventh Congressional District, and now a promi
nent member of the American party.
4. He would have voted against every southern
Representative present in the House when the
vote was taken, (with the exception of nine,)
whether Whig, Democrat or American.
5. He would have voted against a bill which the
Georgia Legislature instructed her Representatives
to sustain —which the people of Georgia have re
i peatedly endorsed, and which the American party
of this State, whose candidate he now is, has re
peatedly endorsed, declaring in State Council, after
its passage, that opposition to its principles in re
lation to slavery, was hostility to the constitutional
rights of the South, and that any one i Mr. Miller
or any one else,) who partook in such opposition,
was un fit to he a member of the American party.
8. He would have voted against a bill which
restored the equality of the South iu the Territo
ries of the Union, lost by the odious and uncon
stitutional restriction of slavery in the Missouri
compromise, by which she was shut out from all
territory lying North of the arbitrary line.
We have said that the people of Georgia had
repeatedly endorsed the Kansas-Nebraska act,
against which Mr. Miller announces he would
have voted, if he had been in the House of Rep
resentatives at the time of its passage. We might
have said, that the people of the entire South had
endorsed it. This is illustrated in the fate of the
nine southern members of the House of Represen
tatives who voted against it. They were Benton,
of Missouri, Millson, of Virginia, Bogg, Cullom,
Etheridge, and Taylor, of Tennessee, Ppryear
and Rodgers, of North Carolina, and llcnt, cf
Louisiana. Hunt has been repudiated by his enn
sttluencv ; so has Rodgers, so has Pcryear, so has
Taylor, so has Etheridge, so has Cullom, so has
Bi gg, so, we believe, has Millson, and so has Ben
ton. Neither of these nine southern opponents of
the Kansas bill will be a member of the next Con
gress. They have been abandoned by the people
thev have misrepresented, and have sunk into ob
scurity. This has been the fate of the nine south
ern Representatives, with whom Mr. Miller de
clares that he would have acted if he had been in
Congress. Ought lie not to share their fate V
Does he not deserve the condemnation which they
have received ? Will the people of tins District
tolerate opposition to the Kansas-Nebraska act ? or
w ill a majority of the citizens of this or any other
county in it, declare by their votes that they pre
fer to be represented in the House of Representa
tives, by Thomas W. Miller, Esq., an avowed
enemy of that bill, rather than by the Hon. A. H.
Stephens, who was one of its original friends, and
is still one of its ablest defenders ''

Drinking Among Young Men.
Indiscriminate drinking among our young men
eventually make its mark upon the population of
our cities. We can see it betraying itself in the
rising generation. It is impossible for any man to
drink even pure liquor six or seven times a day
without suffering severely in constitution. And
when he transmits this impaired constitution to
his son, who in turn impairs it still further, by the
same course, it requires little foresight to see that
we are preparing a population for our cities that
will not, in physical frame, be much better than
the wretched Aztecs. This love of drink and bar
rooms is every day increasing. Every day sees
fresh saloons starting up in our midst. Every day
sees our youth becoming more and more the victims
of this habit, for we really think it more a habit
than a provision. It is no love for joviality that
tempts them, except in a few eases. It is not the
hot exurber ofyouth. It js not the evanescent im
pulse of the gay young fellow who is sowing his
wild oats. It is, as has been said, a cold, deliberate,
confirmed habit. No atmosphere of recklessness
or jolitv surrounds the drinking groups, except on
occasions, and no peals of merriment atone for the
act, by proving that it is at least unusual. A grim
ami melancholy air pervades each countenance.
The drinks are poured out, the glasses raised and
touched with a loathsome air of custom, and each
man swallows his portion with the same impassive
coimteuanee he would wear if he were drinking a
glass of plain water. All the concomitants that
partially redeemed or excused,are wanting in this
sad and formal ceremony. The actors drink, not
because they love it, and want to be merry, but
because they have been accustomed to it ever since
thev were boys, and that it has now become a
habit, which is more imperious than if it were a
passion.

that Gen. Rusk was true to inm to the last, and he

Discussion between Linton Stephens and
Col. Joshua Hill, at Madison.
Mr. Editor: On the loth inst., the Hon. Linton
Stephens and Col. Joshua Hill, the candidates for
Congress from this district, discussed the political
issues of the day, Mr. Stephens having one hour,
Col. Hill about the same leugth of time in which
to reply.
Mr. Stephens spoke principally upon questions
sprung in the speech of Col. Hill on Wednesday.
The first point touched by him was the question of
Col. Hill, “why did A. H. Stephens, why did Mr.
Toombs, why did all these true men of the South
and North, let the Missouri compromise remain,
when it ivas so much against the South ? If the
removal of this restriction by the Kansas bill was
such a boon to the South, why was it not thought
of before by the South and her representatives?”
Mr. Stephens said, that at the time of the pas
sage of tlie Missouri compromise, the North de
manded of Congress to say—they claimed the right,
the power, to say—that no other State should enter
the Union where slavery was recognised. This
they demanded, the South would not concede the
right and he, for one, thanked them; but they*
the North and South, made a bargain, entered into
an agreement, a compact, that North of 86’ SO’
slavery should be excluded—this was a solemn
contract. The South would not concede the point
demanded by the North, for which, instead of
which, she gave a price untold, namely, the Mis
souri restriction. This compromise, this compact,
was kept inviolate till 1*46, when a territorial
government ivas being formed for Oregon.
In the bill organizing the Territory, there was a
clause prohibiting slavery; Mr. Hurt, of South
Carolina, offered an amendment to that clause,
stating as a reason for the prohibition that the Terri
tory was Forth of 36’ 80'; his amendment was
i-oted down because of the majority of the North
in Congress. They, therefore, thereby refused to
admit the Missouri compromise as a reason for pro
hilnting slavery in the Territory of Oregon. Thus
the Missouri compromise was not recognized in the
organization ot the territorial government of Ore
gon. Again, in Is4h, when the Territories of Utah
and New- Mexico, required governments, the same
policy was pursued by the North, and insisted
upon ; every one knows this was why the compro
mise measures of 1850 were brought forward.
The North said they would not abide by the Mis
souri compromise, in regard to those two territo
ries; the riouth demanded the application and en
forcement ol that compromise. This was another,
and a second refusal ot the North to comply with
that agreement ; t was then and there repudiated
by the North.
1 hen it was that Alexander 11. Stephens stood
on the floor ot Congress, and said : away with the
Missouri compromise; away with all compromises;
that, hereafter, he would stand upon the Cons'.itu
tion , demand his rights by the Constitution ; and
receive only the Constitution as his rights, and the
rights of the South! Mr. Toombs backed him;
Georgia backed him. He said that all public men
are liable to censure; none could, or would be
free trom it. 1 hat the sun in all its brightness
has spots upon it; who if ever upon a bed of pain
and sickness, who restlessly turned the dark hours
of night, did not welcome the brightness of the
eastern sky—did not welcome the rising the sun,
who came in glory, with healing upon its beam -
no spots were there, no darkness thought of.
When did Stephens and Toombs ever flinch or
quail before an abolition onset? Instead of it,
Georgia’s great heart beat with pride and grati
tude, whenever the voices of these, her true sons
were wafted from the capitol. Georgia anew her
rights were vindicated—her welfare looked after.
Col. Hill asked in his speech, on Wednesday,
“ If the Kansas bill was so good, for North and
South, why were the best of Northern Democrat
beaten for supporting it y”
Mr. Stephens said • That tin Abolitionists of tin
A-cFi ino -o rmli at/y apposed tothe bill• the defeat
oj Gen. shields and other :, bemuse of their support
f the bill, by the Abolitionists, was tic strongest el i
de nee to hie mind, that the Kansas hill was right;
that the youth by that hill, regained her equality in
the L tiion. And that when tfie fifty-one supporters
of the Kansas bill of the North, backed Walker in
his policy * said that Waiker was carrying out the
bill; then he would turn against them, denounce
them as he does Walker; bill that Douglas was
still true to the South; still true to the Kansas
bill ; -till the (find among men; still die Saul in
Israel. That not like Canute of old, who called
upon the vast deep without effect, but like I,lode
rich Dim, who sounded one note for constitutional
rightc, ond from all around him would spring
forth men, ready to do valiant battle.
He answered again, as on Tuesday, that he
stands square up to the third resolution of the
Democratic Convention, in all its strength and
favor, in all it said of Walker and his policy.
He asked Col. Hill it he stood upon it too, saving
that he had just as soon lie should answer one
way as the other; but if he did, he thought he
(Stephens I had the best right to goto Congress
on it, as he. wastin'first to adept it.
Why should l.'ol. Hill denounce Walker, if he
does not stand on the third resolution? how could
he ? Does it look right that he should denounce
him and not adopt a resolution so strongly censur
ing him for the same thing Col. Hill objects to
him for? or, why should Col. Hill object to Walk
er for not carrying out the Kansas bill, when lie
himself is opposed to that bill /
lie proved that Col. Hill did not even stand on
the platform which nominated him (Col. 11.) for
Congress— that is, as it now rends ; for the Colonel
admitted that if he had had the drawing up of the
resolution it should have read differently. lie
proved that the resolution and Col. Hill 'did not
agree, for the resolution said “ that Walker's-poll
cy, the Kansas bill, and the action of the Dem
ocratic party, was nothing new.” Col. Hill said
it was, for the issue of, who shall vote upon the
adoption of the Constitution in Kansas, is entirely
new.
He repeated what lie said on Tuesday, so far as
Buchanan and his cabinet backed Walker, so far
would he censure the President and his cabinet;
and that if Walker persisted in his course, and was
not recalled or reproved by December, he would
from that time place no confidence in the Adminis
tration. lie said that Walker himself did not ran
claim to be carrying out the Kansas bill; neither
did friend or foe say that he was.
He was asked by Col. Hill, “ if sent to Congress,
if the President backed Walker in Ins administra
tion, would he sit with the opposition, or would
he sit with the supporters of the administration?”
Mr. Stephens gave an unequivocal answer, and
said, that his position, should he known by the manner
in which he would speak and vote, and not by where
he sat; but that if Col. Hill thought there would
he any difficulty in finding a seat, the people had
best not send him to Congress.
Col. Hill followed Mr. Stephens in a speech of
about an hour’s length ; he did not say whether
he stood upon the third resolution or not; but lie
spoke as the candidate of the American paty, and
pleased them by his adherance to their principles,
by Ins bright hopes and strong wishes as ti/the
success of their principles; ’twas gentlemanly and
courteous, not affecting at all the arguments or
positions of Mr. Stephens.
I thought the speech on Tuesday, of Mr. Ste
phens, a close and searching one, but the one on
Tfiursday was doubly so; it was directly to the
point in every particular. May he meet with such
success throughout the district, if so, 1 think that
on election day, each speech will bring tothe polls
many true ana strong supporters.

From the Columbia (S. C.) Times, Sept. 11.
Columbia ami Hamburg Kailroad.
The Lexington Hag is out in a strong article in
favor of the building of the Columbia and Ham
burg railroad. This is an opportune time to agi
tate this matter, as meetings have recently been
held in North Carolina strongly endorsing the
propriety of making the connection of forty miles
between Greensboro’ and Danville. When this is
made, it is only necessary that the Columbia and
Hamburg road -hould be built, to secure the pas
sage through Columbia of the great bulk of travel
between the North and South. By the present
mail route via Weldon, Wilmington, and Kings
ville, the distance from Richmond to Augusta is
five hundred and thirty-eight miles; whereas by
the route contemplated, via Danville, Charlotte,
and tis,e distance between Richmond
aud Augusta would onty 'be four hundred and fifty
miles, a difference of eighty-eight miij;, which is
equal to six hours in time. The Charlotte road
pught *o be a liberal subscriber to the Columbia
ana He.ccburg railroad, and we cannot understand
why the N'ortp C'-Utr?! road should op
pose the Greerjsboro’ and Da.nvilte cotssecj’om in
asmuch as the mcraased travel oyer the ninety
four miles of their road, between Charlotte and
Greensboro’, would more than compensate for any
loss of travel between Greensboro’ tindGoldsboro
■ We hope to see both connections made before
many year?.

Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 11.
Messrs Editors: Mr attention has just been call
ed to the following, which appeared in the Colfnn
bus (Ga.) Sun of the Ist inst.:
“ Col. IV. A. Choice, of Atlanta, was in Chatta
nooga a few days since, recruiting troops for the
Nicaraguan service. Twenty-five dollars per month
and two hundred and fiftv acres of land are offered
for able-bodied men. Col. Choice was commis
sioned by Gen. Walker when he passed through
Atlanta a short time since.” —Columbus Sun.
Permit me, sirs, to say that there are two er
rors in the foregoing statement, which 1 desire to
correct.
Ist. I have received no commission as Colonel,
or other military commission from Gen. Walker,
in the Nicaraguan service. And
2d. I am not, and have not been “recruiting
troops ” for that service. All the interest that 1
have taken in Nicaraguan affairs is simply this:
Intending to emigrate, myself, to Nicaragua, I

taken care shall'be fully understood by all whom
I have engaged, or shall engage, to accompany

the cure of diseases of the Liver. Its effects are so salutary
and speedy, and at the same time so perfectly safe, that it Is
not surprising it should supersede all others. Invented by a
very distinguished physician of Virginia, who practiced in a
region of country iu which Hepatis, or Liver Complaint is pe
culiarly formidable and common, and who had spent years In
discovering tire ingredients and proportioning their quantities,
these Pills are peculiarly adapted to every form of the disease,
and never fail to alleviate the most obstinate cases of that ter
rible complaint. They have iustly become celebrated, and
the researches of Dr. M'Lano have placed his name among the
benefactors of mankind. No one having symptoms of this
formidable complaint should be wllbout these invaluable Pills.
Have you a pain in the right side, under the edge of lire ribs,
which increases with pressure—unable to lie with ease on tire
left side—witli occasional, sometimes constant, pain under the
shoulder blade, frequently extending to the top of the shoulder?
Rely upon it, that although the latter pains are sometimes
taken for rheumatic, they all arise from diseases of the Liver:

the durability of the oil painting, tire correctness of the daguer
