Telegraphic Discourtesy.
The New York Tribune of Saturday morning,
eavs, “At eleven o’clock last night, while anxious
ly waitiug for further particulars of the wreck of
Hie Central America, vve received the following
dispatch:
“ Washington, Sept. 18, 1657. —Aten early hour
this forenoon, the Agent of the New York Asso
ciated Press, at Norfolk, was dispatched to Hamp
ton Roads to collect from the rescued passengers
every incident connected with the late terrible dis
aster, and at the same time tiie Petersburg and
Norfolk telegraph line was requested to bold open
at the Association’s expense, until the return of the
special reporter from Hampton Roads, notwith
standing which the line was closed at about the
usual time (uine o'clock this evening, thus depriv
ing ns of the possibility of obtaining any further
particulars from Hampton Roads to-night.
The line to Savannah was also ordered open, and
we hope to obtain some further intelligence from
that place, though the line South of Virginia is out
of order, and scarcely working at all at the preseut
moment, (half-past ten, p. m.).
The same paper remarks :
“While thousands of bereaved friends are in
the most painful doubt as to the fate of fathers,
brothers and children, the telegraph line, which
alone can give them information, coolly shuts its
offices, and its operators retire to their evening
amusements. The revolting heartlessness of such
a proceeding cannot be fittingly characterized in
Christian language. There is no expense, reason
able or unreasonable, that the press of this city
would not have cheerfully borne to have given
every name, line and word in reference to the
great disaster; but all their eft'oits are frustrated
by this inexcusable outrage. The responsible par
ses deserve the execration of every man who has
a heart to sympathize with the mourning friends
of the loved anil lost.”
In striking contrast with the conduct of the ope
rators on the Petersburgand Norfolk telegraph line
the operators at the Augusta office worked cheer
fully, faithfully and devotedly, during the entire
night of Friday last, aud forwarded to Charleston,
as well a.-, New Orleans and Washington city full
details of the circumstances attending the loss of
the steamship Central America, as detailed by Mr.
11. H. Childs, in his letter to the newspaper pub
lishers of Savannah. And all the operators on
the entire line, from Washington to New Orleaus,
cheerfully co-operated, aud enabled the publishers
throughout the country, connected with the asso
ciated press, to give to their readers in full, on
Saturday morning, the statement of Mr. Childs.
By reference to the appointments of Ed
wiidJ. Walker, Esq., it will be seen that the
meeting which was to have been held at the City
Hall this evening, has been postponed until Satur
day evening, Sept. 26.
ar&» me time on Monday night, the clothing
establishment iu this city, of Mater <fc Morris was
entered by some burglar, who was doubtless ac
quainted with the interior arrangemputs of the
store. A number of watches, a cut three hundred
dollars iu money, and perhaps other articles of
value, were stolen.
We invite attention to the advertisement
of Wm. Haines offering for sale the drugs, fixtures,
Ac., of his establishment.
A man by the name of John Todd, we are
informed, was carried through our city yesterday
to South Carolina, to answer a charge of having
stolen two negroes from Mr. E. J. Parkes, of Hor
ry district.
jqgpCol. Titus, of Nicaragua notoriety, recent
ly had a bar-room fight in St. Louis, and was com
mitted to ihe calaboose.
Cheap Corn.— South of Springfield, 111., on the
railroads, some of the farmers are offering their j
corn at fifteen cents per bushel in the field; others
at fixe dollars per acre. The indications are, un! ;
less the frost sets in early, that the corn crops wiM
be enormously large.
From ike Constitutionalist, Aug. 16, 1556.
A Southern Defence of the Freesoilers—
Its Effects at the North.
We listened with profound regret and disgust
to the speech made by Mr. Recorder Gibson, at the
City Hall, on the 13th of August last, in his dis
cussion with Judge Thomas. It was a speech far
better adapted to a Freesoil audience on Boston
Common, than the ears of a southern people,
struggling for their equal rights under the Consti
tution of our common country, against the in
furiate bands of northern fanatics and demagogues,
who are seeking to wield the powers of the Feder
al government to degrade and disfranchise the
South. There was some mitigation to the disgust
inspired bv the occasion, in the fact that the most
odious passages in his harangue drew no applause
even from the most frenzied supporters of the
Know Nothing candidate for President. His de
fence of apologies for the Boston Emigrant Aid
Society, and the marauding knaves it has armed
with Sharpe’s rifles, to resist the lawful authorities
of Kansas, and deluge its soil with blood, fell un
welcome and uncheered upon the ears of his own
party, while his opponents could but ill-restrain
their murmurs of deep indignation.
When asked at our office next day by members
of our fellow citizens, if we intended to write out
a sketch of his argument for publication, we re
plied that we would not do so, because we were
unwilling to herald to the world, that such a speech
had been made and listened to by a southern-born
man, on southern soil and in the heart of a south
ern city—that such a speech would be read with
tremendous effect by the Abolitionists of the North
to defend tlieir own conduct, and to strike down
our noble friends in the North, who are gallantly
fighting our battles, and representing the South
as the agrieved party in this great struggle for
equal rights in Kansas. We hoped that it would
turn out that Judge Gibson had not deliberately
weighed his words and his position—that he had
been betrayed by the excitement of the occasion,
and by sore poverty of mental resources to cope
with a subject and an antagonist to which he was
inadequate—into the use of arguments borrowed
from northern Freesoil papers, and that calm re
flection would induce him voluutarily to retract
or qualify much that lie said on that occasion.
But as we could hear of uo indications of any
such purpose, we consented, though reluctantly
and after some deliberation, to the publication in
our issue of the 13th of August, of the article
signed “Justice,’’ in which the positions assumed
bv Judge Gibson were stated and a call made
on him to avow or disclaim them. From that
day to this he has remained silent, and we
are constrained to consider him as maintaining
these positions. But considerations higher than a
desire to swell a mere party triumph over those
he then represented, have restrained us from ar
raying the most obnoxious of those positions be
fore the public. The condemnation of the popu
lar voice of Georgia of the Know Nothing party
will be sufficiently loud and emphatic without the
aid of such appeals to their indignation as this
theme would afford us. We were unwilling to im
press on the public mind North the fact, that in
the heart ol a sla\ - eholding, the State of Georgia,
the Boston Emigrant Aid Society and the ruffian
invaders of Kansas under Jim Lane, had an apolo
gist and a champion, and that his defence of their
cause had been tolerated aud listened to patiently
bv an intelligent southern audience We foresaw
the mischief it would do the cause of the South,
and the northern defenders of her cause at the
North.
W e were not mistaken. In evidence of this fact,
we invite the attention of our readers to a letter
from Bridgeport, Connecticut, dated Sept. 6, to
the Savannah Georgian. It tells what uses are
there made by the Freemonters and Know Noth
ings of the North, of Judge Gibson's position.
In admiting the article sigued Justice to our
columns, we did so to give Judge Gibson an op
portunity of retracting or qualifying his positions;
and if he failed to do so.togive his party an opportu
nity of disavowing them. This, too, was the ob
ject of the author of Justice. It is to be regreted
that it has called forth no disclaimer. But there
will be such a disclaimer by the people at the bal
lot box m November as will show how little sym
pailiv mere la in Oeuigia fijr Freemontism, K„o
Nothingism, and freesoil shriekers for freedom.
We re-publish the following article signed “Jus
tice," which appeared iu our paper on the 13th of
August:
The Discussion on Wednesday Night.
To the Editin' of the Constitutionalist :
I would be pleased, Mr. Editor, through the col
umns of your paper, to call attention to one feature
of the discussion which took place at the City Hall,
on Wednesday evening last, between Judges Tho
mas and Gibson, and that is the anti-southern
views of some of the positions taken by the latter.
Our object is not to review tbe speeches of the two
gentlemen, to show, as we might, the complete
triumph of Democratic principles; nor is it to
review the entire speech of Judge Gibson, but
simply to refer to a few of the extraordinary state
ments made by him on that occasion.
We understood him.to say that General Whit
field, the pro slavery delegate to Congress from
Kansas, was ousted from his seat upon the evi
dence which had been submitted to Congress, to
prove that he had been elected by fraudulent votes.
He stated that those who voted against him were
as competent to judge of the testimony submitted
as those who voted to sustain him, and might have
been equally as honest. We shall not undertake
now to examine that testimony ; suffice it to say,
it has been laid before the whole country ; that
there is but cue opinion upon the subject among
the people of tbe South, and that is, that he was
fairly elected by the people of Kansas, and was de
prived of his seat by an act of atrocity unequaled
in the history of our Congressional legislation.
He was sustained by Democratic votes, North and
South, and by the southern members of the Ameri
can party in Congress, and was opposed by the
Black Republicans and Freesoilers, consisting of
the friends of Messrs. Fremont and Fillmore. We
deem this statement sufficient on this point.
Again: Judge Gibson stated that the South,
through the aid of the President, Pierce, Douglas,
and other northern Democrats, repealed the Mis
souri restriction line, in violation of a sacred com
promise which had been made by our forefathers,
and which gave peace and quiet to the country; that
this unnecessary act had produced the agitation
which had followed, and afforded Mr, Fillmore just
grounds to declare that the Nebraska-Kansas act,
by which it was repealed, opened the “ Pandora’s
box of evils,” Ac., upon the country. We merely
desire to refer to this statement of Judge Gibson,
Laving no wish to show that the Missouri Compro
mise had been repeatedly rejected by northern
votes and disregarded by representatives from tbe
North before the South claimed a restoration of
equality and the substitution of the Constitution
in the place of a compromise which afforded no
security for her rights.
Again : Judge Gibson stated that the South is to
blame for having first taken incipient steps in for
cing emigration to Kansas to make it a slave State,
ana that the North resorted to similar means,
through her Emigarnt Aid Societies, in self-de
fence.
We might refer to other objectionable statements
of Judge Gibson on the occasion referred to, but
we deem these three sufficient to show the startling
nature of the influence which his affiliation
with Mr. Fillmore and his northern friends has ex
erted over the mind of one who once professed to
be a Southern Rights man. We have no desire to
injure Judge Gibson, but we do desire to defend
the great and holy cause of the South against such
insidious aud dangerous attacks made upon it by
a native born son. Judge Gibson, on the occasion
referred to, was the champion of the Know No
thing or American party of this city. He was the
exponent of the views of that p"arty. Did he
truly represent its sentiments? The 'Chronicle d-
Senlinet, alluding yesterday morning to the dis
cussion, said ; “Both parties seemed well satisfied
with the efforts of tlieir champions.” We see
then what the champion said, and tvhat the lead
ing organ of the American party in this section
says of the champion, and the reception given to
his efforts by the members of that party who were
present. We shall hold that party responsible for
the statements of Judge Gibson, unless they shall
be repudiated by it.
We hope Judge Gibson will upon a sober, ;
second thought, recall, or materially modify bis
statements to which we allude, and if he will not, we
hope the American party will disavow them. God ;
knows we do not desire to make political capital
out of bis speech, unless it shall be adhered to bv ;
Judge Gibson and his friends. We shudder to
think of the effect which its circulation in the I
northern States to encourage the ene- :
mies of the South. Language affords no epithets
of abuse which have been burled at us from that
section, in consequence of the passage of the Ne
braska-Kansas act, and the efforts of our people to
make Kansas a slave State.
While Judge Gibson asserts that the South is to
blame in the matter of first forcing emigration to
Kansas, the Democratic papers of the North are
charging the offence in the firat instance upon the j
Freesoiiers and Abolitionists! What a bomb this
speech of Judge G., unretracted, will afford these
bloody minded enemies of the South, thrown into
the midst of our northern Democratic friends.
“See," they will sav to them, “what a bold, noble
minded son of the South has dared to say to those
hell-hounds of slavery, in the City of Augusta, in
the very heart of the "South.”
We hope for Judge Gibson’s sake, for his party’s
sake (for they are our southern brethren) that this
evil will be neutralized by some retraction of sen
timents so unsuited to a southern latitude. We dt»
sire the success of the Democratic party, but
God forbid that we should wish to secure
it by means which may exercise so baleful
an influence, as the circulation in the northern
States of these uncontradicted statements of the
Hon. William Gibson.
If we have not misunderstood him, we hope
that he may put his statements to the account of
hasty and inconsiderate declarations, made in the
heal of debate ; if we have misunderstood him,
we shall rejoice to learn it, and will hasten to
make amends for our misconception of his views
and the unintentional injustice done him.
Justice.
Greensboro’, Sept. 21st, 1857.
To the Editor of the Constitutionalist:
Dear Sir: lam informed upon good authority
that B. H. Hill, my opponent, in a late speech de
livered in Newnan, stated iu substance, that dur
ing my stay at the commencement at Athens, there
was a caucus of the Southern Rights, and of the
Union or Cobb wing of the Democratic party, as
he called it, the object of which was to settle
upon the policy on which the canvass should be
conducted ou my part relative to certain guest ions
he had propounded to me at Newuau, Carrolltou,
and other places ; and that there was a division of
sentiment as to whether I should answer the ques
tions, and that ihe non-committal policy was finally
determined on, as he was informed by a gentleman
who was iu said meeting. I pronounce the state
ment a falsehood ; 1 care not by whom it is made.
During my stay at Athens, friends who had for
merly belonged to both wings of the party, were
frequently in my room, and frequently spoke about
the manner of conducting the canvass. But no
caucus or consultation was held in my presence or
within my knowledge, for the purpose of deter
mining whether I should answer questions pro
pounded by Mr. Hill or any one else, and no one
advised me not to answer; and I heard of no di
vision of sentiment as to the propriety of my an
swering Mr. Hill’s questions, or any other ques
tions that might be propounded to me. I have
answered his questions again and again in my
speeches, nofiat all times by a simple yes or no, but
m such away as to make known my sentiments
fully, as to the subject matter of the question pro
pounded. No one who lias heard me, can have any
difficulty in reference to my position. 1 have uo
concealments; 1 have not only answered Mr. Hill’s
questions, but all questions propounded by others;
and am at all times ready to answer. When I
accepted the nomination, I endorsed every resolu
tion and word of the platform laid down by the
convention which nominated me. I have changed
no opinions then expressed. 1 still endorse and
stand upon the platform- the whole platform of
that convention. The principles contained iu it
still command the approbation of niv judgment,
and will continue to receive my cordial support.
1 remain your obedient servant,
Joseph E. Brown.
[communicated.]
Messrs. .Miller & Co., in Oglethorpe
County.
These gentlemen bad a rather protracted time
in Oglethorpe, commencing at Lexington on Mon
day, 14th, Woodstock, on Tuesday loth, and near
Millstone on Wednesday, 16th insts. This last
meeting I attended—-tvhen I arrived, I found about
one hundred aud fifty men assembled, soon after
wards, Mr, Miller made his appearance, carrying
his “frying pan,” accompanied by Col. Milledge,
carrying the lard and butter, and two other tine
looking gentlemen, and upon enquiring as to what
they carried, I was informed “ the groceries.”
Mr. Miller soon faced the audience, and delivered
one of his up-hill set speeches. I give you the po
sitions he takes, and the grounds upon" which lie
claims the suffrage of the voters of the Eighth
Congressional District. Comment is useless, tor
with such view s defeat aw aits any man.
Ist. I ought to be elected to Congress and Mr.
Stephens defeated; only reason given, because 1
“<-l M ini ike Kuow Nolhiog[>i»riy anil Mr. Stephens
with the Democratic.
2d. Undertakes to defend Fillmore aud condemn
Mr. Buchanan. Says Mr. Buchanan never cast a
vote in favor of the South, but fails to mention one
be ever cast against the South. Did not say any
thing about Mr. Fillmore’s Abolition record.
3rd. Gets to Kansas gets lost—know's nothing
about it -returns and tries lo persuade the people
to elect him to Congress. Says a great deal about
Walker and the Democratic candidate for Congress
-wants to know if Mr. Fillmore was to be con
demned for denouncing the removal of a compro
promise of thirty years standing—a time honored
compromise. Says at the time the Georgia iegis
lature approved the Kansas bill, alien sutlrage was
not there, and if it was, nobody saw - the bill but
Linton Stephens. Says had he been in Congress
would have voted against (he passage of the
Kansas bill. Does not tell the people that evert
Abolitionist voted against it; that the Abolition
ists rallied their full strength the uext year to de
feat those that did vote for it. Don’t tell the peo
ple that his position is worse for the South than
Walker’s—had a few more such us he is been in
Congress wc never could have had any showing
for Kansas.
4th. Says and asserts a great many things about
Mr. Stephens which Mr. Stephens iias again and
again refuted, and proved to be utterly false—ap
peals to old line Whigs, Democrats, and Ameri
cans to elect him to Congress and defeat Mr. Ste
phens, but fails to mention any vote of Mr. Ste
phens that does not meet his constituents approba
tion. Wanted every body who stands upon the
third resolution of the Democratic party, and one
•of the same import of the American party to speak
with one unanimous voice, failed to tell whttv that
resolution of the American party was to be found.
1 have read their platform over several times and
have not seen it, nor has Thomas W. Miller.
When Mr. Miller had concluded, Col. Milledge
rose and delivered the coldest exhortation I ever
listened to. He failed to create anv excitement or
enlist any sympathy for his cause. By some
means lie quit before lie got through. Anyhow,
suddenly, and I thought rather abruptly.
Then followed Mr. G. (.‘lark, the any sort of jioli
tical man you call for, who has boxed and re-boxed
all points of the compass, who is sometimes ahead
and sometimes behind the music, aud ou this oc
casion got clear out of hearing, who wants office
but can’t get it, who joined ihe Know Nothing
crowd and expected to be elevated “forty feet”
higher, but failed, came back penitent, explains
why he was not nominated by the Democratic par
ty for the Senate, whose political light has been
flickering for sometime and on this occasion went
out. lam indeed sorry 1 cannot do Mr. Clark jus
tice, and describe his manner, tone, and language
—keep cool Mr. Chirk.
Mr. Clark’s object in this, his last effort was to
injure the vote of Mr. Griffith, Democratic candi
date for Representative. But* in this, he made
another one of his great failures. This effort has
been unsuccessfully made in various parts of the
county and clandestine! v at that, by trying to work
on the minds of the untlioughted. Mr. Griffith
was on the ground aud ready and willing to make
a satisfactory explanation.
Here are the conclusions, as all know the acts
passed by the last legislature, amendatory to the
Constitution, and, in effect, changing the Inforior
Court, and establishing a County Court, defining
its jurisdiction. Upon the first passage of this
bill, Mr. Griffith voted in the negative, the bill was
lost, a reconsideration was moved, Mr. Griffith
voted against a reconsideration. The bill was re
considered, and made the special order for the
20th of February, a day or two before the legislature
adjourned; when it "came ,- 2 for final action, Mr.
Griffith again voted against it, by a mistake of
the Clerk his vote was recorded with the yeas, in
stead of the nays. Mr. Griffith left Milledgevilie
the same evening, consequently, was not i-ie.ient
to have his vote corrected ; the next morning when
the journal was read, and Mr. Griffith was not aware
of his vote being wrongly recorded, until he saw
it in the printed journal." Mistakes in recording
the yeas and nays, are frequently made in both
houses; and Mr. Griffith not being present, at !
the time the journal was read, accounts for his
vote being found in tbe affirmative. Mr. Griffith
was opposed to it from the first, and is yet, and
will do ail he can_to defeat it during the next ses
sion. No Representative serves his constituents
more faithful than Mr. Griffith, always working
for their interest. His votes prove his’abilitv and
discretion. And his constituents tA-ill again show
their appreciation by returning him by a large i
majority. Simston.

the Proprietor of the Star Hote! has to say of the wonderful
effects of M’Lane's Vermifuge :
Stab Hotel, CENTE*VH.nR, Texas, Aug. 22, 1864,
Messrs. Flemdhj Bbos.—l feel it my duty to make the fol
lowing statement: Several of my children have been unwell
for the last week or two. I called at the “ Big Mortar” to get
some Oil of Worm seed and other truck, to give them for worms.
The Druggist recommended M’Lane’s Vermifuge, prepared by
you, but having, heretofore, tried every Vermifuge in my know
ing without advantage, 1 told him it was not worth while, as
my children appeared proof against them all. He said to take
a bottle, and offered if it done no good to refund the money.
To sal isfy him 1 done so, and the effect was so much better
than expected that 1 got another bottle, and the result was
most astonishing. Three of my children discharged a great
number of the largest worms I ever saw. To a young man,
my Mail Carrier, who was weak, puny and poor as a snake,
for a month or so, I gave two doses, which brought from him
at least a pint of what is called stomach worms! Strange as
this may appear, yet it Isas “true as preaching .’’ How the
boy stood it so long as lie did, with ten thousand “Bots”
gnawing at his stomach, is the greatest wonder to me. All
these cases are now doing well. No doubt the lives of thou
sands of children have been saved by the timely use of this ex
traordinary medicine. Dont fail to give It a trial.
