An Editor Bobbed !
We find the lollowing in the Evening Dispatch,
of yesterday:
Jlurolars. —The residence of Mr. Atkinson, the j
editor of this paper, was entered by burglars last
night, and robbed of a gold watch, revolver, and
seven'll other valuable articles. The burglars en
lered through a window and made their exit, as if
they had been honest people, through the trout
Jour without disturbing the family. When thieves
enter an editor’s house lor plunder, their proceed
ings are getting a little too presumptuous, and we
shall absolutely be obliged to pitch into somebody
if they are not stopped.
U is to be hoped that when the burglars dis
cover that they have robbed au editor, they will
not hesitate to return the stolen goods to the
proprietor. We hope so, both for the sake of our ,
friend Atkinson, and foe the purpose of prevent- j
in g somebody from being pitched into.

Letters Irom the People.
We publish the following extracts from letters j
received at this office on yesterday :
Elberton, July 23. i
“Douglas and Johnson are doing better in this
county tnan their most devoted friends anticipat- J
rd w hen the nominations were made.”
Another letter from the same county, says :
“There are more Douglas men in this village |
now than there ever were Democrats before, with- |
in my recollection; and l believe, in all portions j
of the State and South, a like feeling will be ap- :
parent belore the November election. The fact is, |
the people have a keener perception of truth and
right than most leaders think they have, or give i
them credit for. Our prospects are decidedly bet- j
ter in this county than they were at our last gen- .
eral election.”
Xewnan, July 21. i
“ We do not boast of our strength in Coweta
county, but you may depend upon it, we are true j
and unflinching, and will labor to achieve a victo- j
ry. We m'end to render a good account to the
National Democracy of the State and the Union, j
Columbia Cos., July 23.
‘‘The Columbia county Democracy stand firm,
with very few exceptions, for Douglas and John
son. Put down two members of the Legislature
for Douglas, and one for Breckinridge.”
(JwinkttCo., July 23.
This county i-< generally for Breckinridge.
The members of the Legislature stand, Breckin
ridge two, and Bell one.
Whitfield Cos,, July 23.
“Depend upon it, Douglas stock is rapidly ad
vancing to par value in Whitfield.”
Appling, Columbia Cos., July 23.
“Mv irnyression is, that the Bell and Everett |
electoral ticket will obtain a small majority in Co
lumbia county ; but the race will be with Beil and j
Douglas,as the Breckinridge party is very small.
The weather is too hot, the dry weather too cou
tiuujufl, and the crops too unfavorable tor ta 1 ’ peo
ple to devote much time to politics.
Schley County, July 24.
“Everything is now lending in favor of Douglas
and Johnson. We are gaining ground dally, and
before the election 1 look tor a much greater
change in our tavor. Our Senator and Representa
tiv ■ are botli for Breckinridge, but I learn tjey
have declared in the event Breckinridge does not
obtain votes enough, with the vote ot Georgia to
elect him, and the vote of this boats can elect
Douglas, then they will vote for the latter.
Marion Cos., July 24.
“In this (Marion) county, the Senator is an out
and out Douglas man, and the Representative is j
fur Breckinridge tirst, and I) *uglas second.
Tatlor Ci'., July 24.
“It is understood here that the Senator and i
Representative in this county aie Douglas and
Johnson men.”
Sumter Cos., July 2 i.
“The Senator in Sumter county, and one of the
Representatives, are reported to be in favor ot hell ;
and Krerett, and one Representative in favor ot
Breckinridge.”
Hart (>., July 2".
“Both the Senator and Representative in Hart
county are in favor of Breckinridge, and it is truth- j
ful to add, that there are but few Douglas men i
here at present, so lar as is generally known, al
though politics is not much talked about.”
Elbert Cos., July 24.
“I do not pretend to be authorised to report the
position of the members of the Legislature in El
bert countv, but I believe the general impression
is that one is for Bell and the other for Breckin
ridge.”
We tuav add, for the information of our read
ers and the public generally, that we have receiv
ed reliable letters from comparatively few coun
ties, in relation to the position of members of the
Legislature. From twenty live counties, we have
reliable and reported, and generally believed state
ments, and, so lar, the position of parties in the
Legislature stands thus: For Breckinridge and
Lane twenty-six; for 1) uglas and Johnson twen
ty; for Bell and Everett ten; and classed as
doubtful three.
There are in the Legislature three hundred and
one members, of which one hundred and thirty
two are Senators, and one hundred and sixty-nine
are Representatives. The number of Democrats
in the Legislature (last session) was two hundred
aud seventeen, and Opposition eighty-four. \\ e
hear of several of the Opposition members who
are new Bbeckikriouk men, and we presume it
may be safely stated that the Opposition, or Bell
men, will not have more than seventy reliably Bell
and Everett voters in the Legislature, in case the
election for President is decided there. What
the vote for Breckinridge and Douglas will be, in
the Legislature, we do not know, nor do we know
any person that does know, or who has informed
himself about the mutter. The balance of power
may be in the hands of the Bell and Everett
men lor it m ay be that the friends of Mr.
Breckinridge have enough power in the Legis
lature to east the vote of the State for that gentle
man. As we obtain further l.gbt, we mav be ena
bled to approximate the result.
Again, we request our friends,and the press of.he
State, to let th^people know bow the Legislature
stands. Let the whole truth be told and known
whether it benetits or injures Bell, Breckinridge',
or Douglas. The people want to know how the
contest will be in the Legislature, ts the election
goes there; and they can only know by persons ;n
the several counties making it known, and bvtts
publication in thy newspapers.

Mr. Douglas’ Speech at Bunker Hill.
The Hon. S. A. Douglas was at Bunker Hill, on
the 19th inst., and, in response to addresses from
the Bon. Charles Thompson and Mayor Dana, he
| said :
Mr. Mayor and Fellow- Citizens: I have just re
turned from a pilgrimage to Lexington, prepara
tore to visiting this sacred spot where we are now
assembled. Amidst all of the battle fields and
the place consecrated to patriotism bv the blood
of our revolutionary fathers, none is so dear to the
American heart as Bunker Hill- v Cheers i Iheie
i is not an American citizen upon the face of th s
broad continent, no matter whether he may te
from the South or the North, or whether he may
come from the plains anil the slopes of the
shores of the Pacific, who does not claim for him
ac-lf and his posterity a share in the glories which
lhat monument was erected to commemorate. \on
may imagine that the monument is peculiar to
Charlestown, and that you have a deeper mterei-t
in that work than the American citizen who may be
... remotest part of the Republic, or sailing on
ibe broad ocean, hut 1 will assure you that there
is no one of vou that claim it has greater pride,
either in the work itself or in those works which
i* was made to commemorate, than the citizens of
mv own Illinois. [Applause.] This has been to
me a dav which I shall long cherish and remembi r
visiting the spot where ihe first American blood
was shed, which gave rise to the revolution, and
now lTiave the honor of addressing you from the
; place of all others which gave impetus to the rev
olution, that resulted in the establishment of our
si stein ol self-government.
Let the sons of those brave sires prove true to !
the principles which gave rise to the revolution, |
which foimed the foundations of our whole po- j
htical system, and upon which alone this Republic :
can be maintained in its unity and in its purity |
forever. [Applause.] The American revolution j
originated in the assertion by the people of the j
colonies of the right of self government, bv each
colony, lu everything that related to their domes- i
tic and internal polity. Our fathers were willing j
to recognise the authority of the British Parlia
ment and the British crown over all things which j
were imperial and not colonial ; over ail things
which affected the affairs of the Empire without
interfering with the dcmestie affairs of the people !
of the colonies. And our fathers said to the Brit
ish Government: You must not interfere with
our affairs. We have the right to make our own j
i laws, and manage our own internal affairs in our i
own way, without the interference of the British
Government. The revolution was fought iu de- j
fence of that great principle of local self govern j
ment. May we, their sons, be faithful to that \
principle, and never permit it to be violated, either j
i in State or Territory, province or colony. [“Good,”
I and cheers. | If we only remain faithful to that j
i fundamental principle and leave the people of
j each State and each Territory free to manage their j
ow'n domestic affairs in their own way, without in- j
terfering with those of their neighbors, (here can j
be peace for ever between theNorthand the South, j
the Last and the West,
You have institutions in Massachusetts peculiar ,
to yourselves ; institutions different from those of i
us in Illinois ; institutions different from those in
the southern States; different from those upon
the Pacific coast. When I come to visit you, you
receive me with open arms, welcome me amongst
you, and show me everything that is curious or
sacred in the history of our country. And, sir, I
trust that when I come among vou, I shall show
due respect to the constituted authorities, and sen
der obedieuce to your laws. But, sir, if you find
me complaining that I don’t like your laws, your
institutions, or the way in which you manage your
domestic affairs, I expect you will tell me that,
while you regret my displeasure, you can tell me
that these laws were made for you, and not for me,
and that if 1 don’t like them, 1 may go back to 11
linois. [Applause.] And now, Mr. Mayor, permit
■ me to say to you, in return for the kind sentiments
with which you have welcomed me to Bunker
Hill, in the name of your fellow citizens, of
Charlestown, if you will do the city w hich I rep
resent the honor of making us a visit, I shall take
pleasure and pride in welcoming you to Illinois ; ■
but I wish you to understand that it is on the ex
press condition lhat you will obey our laws, and re
spect our institutions, and not interfere with out
domestic institutions; and if you complain to me
that you don’t like our laws, 1 shall say that while
1 regret it, you must know that they are our laws,
and not yours; we made them for ourselves, and not
fur you"; we adopted them to our institutions, and
not lo your wants; and if you don’t like them,
you must go back to Massachusetts, where you
“will find better ones, [Applause ;
So it is in the southern States; if you of Massa
[ chusetls, or we of Illinois, go to Charleston or New
! Orleans, it does not become us to tell the people
! there that they have institutions and laws which
j we don't like.” If they are good laws, let them en
joy the benefit of them ; if they are evil, let them j
j bear the burden and the evils they entail until they j
! become wise enouph to make better ones.
When you go to Kansas or New Mexico you will j
find a body of men there possessing more energy, ]
j enterprise and capacity than iu any State of the j
! Union. For l can tell to you one great truth ]
] without danger of giving offense, being a Yankee j
myself, like the balance of the company: New .
England is an emigrating country. And when- j
! ever a New England farmer has twe sons, and one
j of them a little wild, daring, but intellectual, he
i thinks the valley where he was born is a litile
smull tor the theatre of his operations. He starts
for the West; goes into ilie wilderness, or on the
prairie; carves out his fortune, and makes a tnan ‘
i himself by l.i rr.x cuorgr. The oiuel Ul'OUier,
perhaps, being a little more obedient to parental ,
authority .less energetic, less intellectual,and a little ‘
| more lazv, prefers to stay at home than logo forth to j
battle with the world. Thus we draw from the older j
i Stales the young men of industry and energy, j
while we leave you the very well behaved young !
men who stay with the old folks. [Laughter and ,
applause. ]
Go to the frontiers, and there you will find men
j of the highest capacity in the known world. Those [
i men go from Massachusetts, from Vermont, from j
I South Carolina, lrom Virginia, from Ireland, and j
! from all parts of the world; and when they go j
there, they carve out their own homes, erect lheir
j own houses, erect their own school-houses, and j
] churches, a.id co-leges, and lav the foundations of j
! society, and constitute just such institutions as j
| they believe will be best for themselves and their
i posterity forever. I believe they are entitled to
that great piivilege of self-government. It will
i uotdo for you to tell them that a particular set of
j laws is good, and another bad, and therefore they
must not have it. They have the inalienable
right to determine for themselves what is good
and what is bad. [Applause ] That is their pri
vilege, aud not yours. You judge for yourselves ;
let them determine for themselves. They are re- i
responsible to the same divine power tlia’ you are !
Tncy have got consciences as well as you. They •
will have children, leaving them to be blessed or j
to he cursed for the actions of their fathers as well j
as you. Let them work out their own salvation
aud make, their own laws; estab'ish their own in- j
; stitutiohs, manage their own affairs in their own •
way, and be responsible to posterity and to the ;
i Almighty, and to no other power on earth. [Ap- ]
plause.]” Gentlemen, I didn't come here to make
a speech to you, but in the presence of that tnonu- |
incut, inspired by the place and by the honorable j
i deeds of those immortal men towhc.se virtues and I
• patriotism that shaft was erected, my attention j
was unavoidably directed to the considera'ion of
| (he great principle involved in that memorable j
struggle.
That principle was the high right, the inherent
I and inalienable right of Ihe people of colonies, of
; Territories, of Provinces, as well as of Estates, to
[ make their own laws, establish their own govern-
I ment, and manage their own domestic affairs. Let
1 us be true to lhat principle, and this Union will
; last forever. Let it never be said—let not the his
j torian ever record—that the children of those sires
who created this temple ot liberty were not com
petent to maintain it. [ Applause, j *
Remember that when the revolution began, Vir
ginia sent her Washington to Boston to take com
mand of the army ! Remember that northern and
southern men stood side by side in all of those
great struggles’ Northern men and southern men,
free Slates and slave States, poured out their blood
| (□ a common cans* 1 , iu order that they might trans

which existed in the time of the revolution.
Let us practice that forbearance toward the

[COMMUNICATED. J
Mr, Dougins’ Freeport Speech.
The seceders have made a great deal of capital
out of Mr. Douglas’ Freeport speech. This they
have done, by willful and dishonest perversion of
its meaning. W hen I say this, 1 allude to the
leaders, who are well informed, know better, and
aie playing a game of reckless deception. I ad
mit there are scores of ignorant, upstart politi
cians who retail the slander through their igoo_
ranee. These I pity. The others deserve the tx.
ecration of all honest men of every party.
They allege that Mr. Douglas declares that, no
matter what the court decides on the slavery
question, the can override the decision,
and do as they please. Now, this is false. He
only says that it matters not*how they decide a
single /"4'it, not all points ; and that as “whether
slavery may or may not go into the Territories,”
the people of the Territories can dispose of it, after
it gets there, as they see proper, by local legisla
tion. In short, he but repeats in a different form,
| his doctrine of popular sovereignty'. But mark you,
does he say that no matter bow the court may de
cide, as to this local legislation, that the Territo
ries may set aside and disregard their decision?
By no nftans, but the very reverse; and yet that
is the impression that is sought to be made. Now,
to prove the falsity of the charge, I give you Mr.
Douglas’ own words, lie says: [Page 20, late
speech in Senate.]
“It was not my opinion that was to govern ; it
was the opinion of the court on the question, aris
ing under a Territorial law, after the Territory
| should have passed a law on the subject. * *
When that case shall arise, and the court shall
! pronounce its judgiueut, it will be binding on
me, on you, sir, and ou every good citizen. It
must be carried out in good faith, and all the pow
er of ihe Government, the army, the navy, aud
the militia, all that we have, must be exerted to
carry that decision into effect, if there be resist
ance.”
Now, what say you to this reckless, unscrupu
lous allegation 1 Dots Mr. Douglas say that the
Territories can override the decision of the Su
preme Court, no matter what they may be? No;
he expressly says, he is bound by it, your are
bound by it, and every good citizen is bound
bv it!
Njw, can it be possible that honest men will
continue to repeat the falsehood, after knowing it
to be false ? No candid, fair dealing man will re
peat this shameless perversion, which is caleula
led to mislead und deceive the people, unless
through ignorance.
“Thou shall not bear false witness against thy
neighbor.” Justice.

Democratic Meeting.
Sparta, Ua., July 21, 1860.
Pursuant to previous notice, a portion of the
National Democratic party of Hancock county
met at the Court House in Sparta.
On motion of Hon. James Thomas, A. J. Har
well was called to the Chair, and John W. Hutch
inson was requested to act as Secretary.
The object of the meeting was explained by
Uon. James Thomas, who made a few able and ap

the National Democratic party.
On motion, a committee of five was appointed to
report business for the action of the meeting. Ihe
committee appointed was Hon. Janies Thomas,
E. Cain, Dr. E. W. Alfriend, Henry A. Hunt, and
Win. B. Hunt.
The committee reported the following resolu
lions, which were unanimously adopted :
The Democratic party has heretofore, at all times
been steadfastly a National party, and on this
great principle, have thus far succeeded in keeping
out of the Executive power of the nation Black
Republicanism, which is, and has been, since its
origin, purely sectional, confined to the North and
arrayed against the South, t-ampling under foot
all constitutional barriers. It cannot but be per
ceived that ihe party is now divided into two wings,
the one National, the other sectional ; Shat this
rupture in the party may, aud probably will lead
to the defeat of the only National party in this
Government, and consequently to the disruption ot
this Union No one taking a just view of the sub
ject can fail to appreciate, whilst many opposed to
us do not scruple lo express the hope that such
may be the case. Wherefore,
R-jsoeved, That we are decidedly aud fixedly in
favor of non-intervention by Congress on the sub
ject of slavery tu the States or Territories of this
; Union.
Rig aired, That we most heartily concur in the
nomiuation of Stephen A. Douglas, as our candi
| date for the Presidency, and Herschel V. Johnson
lor the Vice-Presidency each have our unquali
! lied confidence for ability and integrity; we will,
i therefore, give them onr cordial support.
Holding this to be, as it has been for the last
twelve years, the well established and settled doc
trine ot the Democratic party, be H therefore—
Heed red, That we recommend the following as
i suitable delegates to the National Democratic crai
a. i..u ..i at a subse
quent day, to be hereafter selected by the Execu

littolvtd. That we, as Democrats, disapprove of
the principle of public improvement by the Gener

anti-Democrauc, and that we are opposed to inter

ry in States and Territories, as a violation of the
doctrine of non-intervention, aud a violation of Ihe

University ol Georgia—Resignation of
Professor U. M. Johnston.
It is with profouud regret, that we learn the re
signation of the Chair of Rhetoric and Belles-Let
ters in the University of Georgia, by Col. R. M.
Johnston.
Asa high toned, accomplished, Christian gen
tleinun, warm friend, and profound scholar, Prof.
Johnston has contributed largely to the elevation
of the standard of the University of Georgia, and
has commanded the firm and undivided respect,
esteem, aud we may add, too, friendship of the
Professors and students of that Institution.
Since his connection with the college, his la
bors have been incessant, and of the severest
character. Ilis valuable work upon the English
classics, recently prepared expressly for the use of
the students of the University of Georgia, will re
main a lasting monument of his zeal in the dis
charge ot his professorial dunes.
The resignation of such a man, who honors,
adorns and elevates his office, who enlarges the j
bounds of human knowledge, and who leaves his j
fellow men wiser and better than he found them, !
will be a calamity to the entire State. J. J.

V COMF1)l \l> remedy, in which we have labored to
produce the most effectual Alterative that can be made.
It is a concentrated extract of Par? Sarsaparilla, so combined
with other substances of st 11 greater alterative powers as to
afford an effective antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla is re
puted to cure. It ta believtd that such a remedy is wanted
by those who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their erne must prove of immense ser
vice to this large class of our afflicted fellow ci izens. How ;
completely this compound will do it, has been proven by •*. j
pertinent on many of the worst cases to be found of the fol
lowiiifr complaints :
Scrofula and Scrofulous Gomp’aint* Eruptions and Erup
tive Diseases, Ulcers, Pimples, Blotches. Tumors, Salt |
Rheum, Scald Heads. Syphilis ami Syphilitic Affectio'.^- , ' 4 ‘r
curial Disease, Dropsy, Neuralgia, or Tic ljenii
tty. Dyspepsia, and Indigestion; E-yslpelus, Bose, or Saint
Antony's Fire, and indeed ine whole class of complaints aris
ing from Impurity of the Blood. . j
Uhls compound will be found 2fj2?SL.
WV*tfl tUfTSeas'in’ortKe year. By the tin.elyex- !
pulsion of them, tnanv rankling disorders are nipped in the
bud. Multitudes can, by the aid ot this remedy, .-pare then* !
! selves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous j
sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of cor- j
motions, if not assisted, o do this tiirough the natural chan- i
nets of the body bv an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the ,
vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting i
through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores: cleanse it j
when you find it Is obstruct and and sluggish in the veins: cleanse i
it whenever it is foul, and your feelings wiil tell you when, j
Even where no particulardisorderis hit, pe pie enjoy letter
health, arid live longer, tor cleansing the blood. Keep the j
blood healthy, and all is well ; but with this pabulum of life ;
disordered there can he no lasting health. Sooner or later j
something must go wrong, and the great machinery of life is
disordered or overthrown.
rsarsaimrilla has, and deserves much, the reputation of ac
complishing these ends. But the world has been eprcgiously
deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone
has not all the virtue that is claimed for it. but more because
mat v preparat ions, pretending to be concentrated extracts of
It, contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla or anything
else.
During late year-i, the public have been misled hy large
bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla
for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the sick,
; for they not only contain little, if any. Sarsaparilla, but often
no curative properties wuatever. Hem e, bitter and painful
| disappointment has followed the use f the various extracts of
I Sarsaparilla which flood the nratket, until the name itself is
justly despised, and has -come synonymous with imposition
and cheat. Still we call th’S compound Sarsaparilla, and
intend to supply such a remedy ns shall rescue the name from
’ th e loud of obliquv which rests upon it. Anu we think we
have ground for believing it has virtues which are irresist
ible by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intended to cure
In order to secure their complete eradication from the system,
the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions
’ on the bottle.
