H
Ludicrous Scene* t
Tte following ludicrous scene is copied from an
article in the April number of Blackwood’s, enti- t
lied a "Remonstrance with Dickens ; ” t
One of the most slmroeful recollections of our t
alnrjflt irreproachable life lies at the door of the ..
mad wag, Dickens. We were attending service in }
a cathedral in a city where we were a stranger,
and had been shown into a pew already occupied [
by two old ladies. For a time we behaved with j
mir wonted decorum, till some absurdity commit
ted by the elder Weller, of which we had been j
reading the night before, rose up to haunt us. ,
Had we been in the open air, a good laugh would i
have relieved us, but cabined, cribbed, contined ,
as it were, the risibility expanded till our form
swelled visibly, our face grow purple, and we saw
a medical man in the next pew feel in his waist
©oat Docket as he anxiously watched the veins in
our forehead. Mr. Weller’s image was fifty-fold
absurdity, blending him, us they did, in his top
boots and shawl with angels ever bright and fair.
.Despairing of our ability to prevent an explosion,
aod feeling the danger becoming each moment
iuumineut, for India rubber itself must have given
way under the accumulating pressure, we sudden
ly dived with our head under the shelf on which
the prayer-book rested, and laughed silently,
while our tours dropped like ruin upon the foot
■tool. •
We were beginning to grow calm when, looking
round, we saw the two old ladies regarding us with
pious horror through their spectacles, and siding
off to their own cud of the pew. This set us off
again, and down went out head in a vain, ostrich-
Jike attempt at conceal.nent, for our shoulders and ■
back, convulsively agitated from nape to wrist- ,
band, told of the internal struggle, to say nothing ,
of sounds that occasionally broke forth, noways
resembling the responses. Conscious that pre- i
bendary and preceptor were regarding us from j
tbeir eminence, we again raised our head with ]
desperate gravitv, aud shall never forget the ago- <
ny of shame with which we beheld an aged verger j
sternly approaching, while two church-wardens c
were quitting their pews with the faces of men do- u
termined to discharge a painful duty. Nevertho- v
less, at the instigation of old Weller, off wo went
again in a lit now quite audible, and were eveutu- 1
ally marched down the centre of the aisle between p
rows of faces lixed in devout horror, with our hand- e
kerchief crammed near down our throat, and our t
watery eyes starting out of our head like a land- n
crab’s, and so, turning a corner, out under the old !
Saxon archway into the churchyard, where we ex- i:
asperated the Verger and church-wardens to frenzy t
by sitting down on a tombstone and giving fuil t
vent to our mirth. Next day, all repentant, we 1
waited upon the dean, who, being himself a Tick- J
wickiau, gave us absolution in the most kindly t
w ay, and we caused u copy of “ Pickwick” to be t
bound in morocco and gold, with the inscription 1
•' from a penitent Sabbath-breaker,” which is to t
this day couspicuous on a shelf of the Episcopal j
library. _ i

Th jl Southern Wheat Crop.—Charleston aud
Savannah are beginning to regard our wheat crop
as an item of importance. A circular issued from
Ihe former city makes some interesting statements
in this connection. From it we learn that exten
sive observations in Georgia and Tennessee war- ;
runt the opinion that the present crop is much the
largest ever grown in those States—the estimate
being three and a half millions of bushels, besides j
oae million, the produce of North and South Caro- ,
lina. It is also estimated that Charleston will re j
ceive all of the latter and the greater portion of j
the former—probably two hundred and fifty thou- (
sand barrels of Hour and one million five hundred (
thousand bushels of wheat. t
For several years Charleston has uot been con- \
sidered reliable as an exporter of breadstuff?, the f
stock not being sufficient to make it an object to (
exporters; but this year, it is believed, she can \
supply all demands. For the last nine months (
there has been exported to Spain from Charleston, i
some sixty thousand barrels of tlcur, in sacks and |
barrels, said to be equal to the Spanish article. ,
The crops of the four States mentio cd have to find ,
a Market in Charleston and Savanna i. The produc
tion of wheat and erection of new fiouring mills in
the S«*tes tributary to Charleston arc yearly in
fcioreAS«ig. There are now in Georgia and Ten
nessee tw» n ty large merchant xxtiKls, with the capa
city of twoqVmdred barrels each per day, besiaes
a large number of smaller capacity ; and there are
also several lfc-ge mills iu North and South Caro
lina, and a great many small oues, so that we may
new term Charles\nn a flour aud grain market.

Gr&it Britain .—The domestic event of the week
which had excited the most engrossing interest,
was the trial of Madeline Smith, of Edinburgh, for
the murder of her lover at Glasgow, one Pierre
Emile L’Angelier. This extraordinary investiga
tion extended over nine days, and the British pub
lic on both sides of the Tweed followed the inquiry
with breathless attention from the commencement
to the close. The outline of the case, which be
came known in the spring of the year, revealed the
fact that a lady of education, of good family, and
of excellent, prospects in life, handsome, accom
plished and extremely young, was charged with
murdering her lover by means of poison, in order
to marry another. Her grandfather was one of the
most renowned architects in the British Empire,
and Lis plans for the new Houses of Parliament
were adjudged second to those of the successful :
competitor, Sir Charles Barry. The af
ter giving the charge of the Lord Justice Clerk to
retired about ten minutes after one j
o’clock, immediately upon which the audience fell
into keen excitement and discussion. At thirty
two minutes past one, the jury-bell rung, and they i
entered the box three minutes afterward. The
prisoner still gave no symptoms of emotion. i
The l,ord Justice Clerk intimated that it must be {
understood that there must be no expression of i
feeling by the audience, whatever the verdict.
The names of the jury having been called, Mr. t
Moffat, of the high school, was announced a3chan- S
teller, and read the verdict as follows:
"In regard to the first count the jury, by a ma- 1
jonty, find a verdict of not guilty. , 8
“In regard to the seeond count, the jury lind, tl
by a majority, a verdict of not proven. a
“In regard to the third count, the jury, by a ma- p
jority, find a verdict of not proven.” t.
The Xcoteiitan says: Instantly on the announce- p
meat of these last words a vehement burst of p
cheering came from the audience, especially from k
the galleries, which was again and again renewed b
with increasing loudness, in spite of the efforts of
thejudges and the officers of the court.
The excitement produced outside the court t
when the verdict became known was immense. e
Whilst the chancellor was reading the verdict t
the prisoner gazed at the jury steadily, but with 1
no signs of agitation, and when the verdict of "not 1
iroven” on the third charge was pronounced her s
lead slightly fell, her face broke into a bright but
somewhat agitated smile, and her hand was warm- c
iy grasped by her agent (Mr. liankin) on one side s
and the jail matron on the other—expressions of t
sympathy which seemed to affect her more deeply <
than any incident of the nine days’ trial. t
The Lord Justice Clerk, in thanking the jury for |
their services (and intimating that they would be i
relieved from similar duties for live yearsi stated
that they would have perceived from what he had '
said to them that his own opinions quite coincided t
witli the conclusion at which they had arrived. |
The prisoner was then dismissed from the bar. )
The report that she had sailed for the United Slates 1
is not correct.
The dead man, L Angelier, is not one whose
fate there is any need to comrnisserate. His eon- 3
duct to one who had been his victim was base and !
unmanly in the last degree, and can only be ex- i
cuscd on the ground stated by the Lord Advocate, t
that by the law of Scotland an irregular marriage i
might he held to have taken place, and that I/Aii- 1
gelier had a right to consider Madeleine Smith as i
his wife, and to prohibit her union with another
man. It appears that the prisoner was left at t
Clapton boat ding house in 1853, when she was only 1
seventeen years old and that within two years of ]
that time she met the deceased, said to be a native
of Jersey, and at that time in the employment of
a (J Insgow warehouseman, at a salary of eight 1
shillings or ten shillings a week, with his board <
anti lodging. L’Angclier paid his addresses,
wlticli were well received bv the young lad}’, but t
forbidden by the parents, who, doubtless, thought i
his position aud prospects not such as would enti
tle him to ask their daughter’s hand. Months pass- I
ed, however, and the intimacy of the pair oontiu- t
ued. Madeleine slept on the ground lloor, and c
used to receive the visits of her lover first at the t
wiudow and then in the room itself. In the spring
of 1850 we find from her letters that she had been a
seduced by L’Angclier, and from that time to the t
close of the year she writes to him almost daily in t
wild style with which the readers of the trial are t
familiar. By the beginning of the present year, t
however, her passion had cooled. A Mr. Minnoch a
hadlproposed in all innocence to her, and in spite s
of stolen interviews and boarding school heroics
she thought it better to have a solid Glasgow man t
of business tliau a French clerk on thirty pounds ti
a year, who boasted to everybody of his successes p
with women in general, and herself in particular.
But L’Angelier had no notion of giving her up.
He did not, it appears, insist upon her marrying
him, but he would not allow her to marry any one
else. It was in vain that Bhe wrote to him that t
their love had mutually grown cold, and that they a
had better forget each other. Emile would show y
her letters to her father and Mr. it the t
match were not at once broken off'. 1 his wi«* (
the motive for the crime alleged by the prosecn- ,
tion. Under the threats of the Frenchman, Made- j
line is obliged to write back that the affair with
Air. Minnoch is a false report. She seems desirous ;
to get L’Angelier away, so that her marriage might t
take place before he could prevent it. L’Augeleir, |
however, remains, and persists in his threats. On (
the 9th of February she is distracted with terror. ;
She implores him not to bring her to open shame, ,
and solemnly declares that she has no other en- ]
gagoment, having, however, promised her hand to |
Mr. Minnoch on tlie 28th of the previous month. (
Dates now become of importance. The prisoner ,
for some reason or other, feigns a renewal of her |
attachment for L’Angelier. She wishes to bring ,
him back to her; the prosecution say that she may ,
poison him—she says that she might coax him to
give back the letters. On February 17th, he dines
with Miss Perry. He tells her that he is to see i
Miss Smith on the 19th. We know not if he did ,
see lier on that day, but we know from the testimo- ,
liv of his landlady, that nn that night he wusseized ,
with a sudden illness —as men are ill from arsenic. ]
That the prisoner administered poison on the 19th
ot February, is the first charge of which she was 1
found uot guilty. Every Glasgow chemist’s book |
was searched,'and no purchase of arsenic was ,
proved prior to the 19tli, so that with respect to
this lirst day there was sufficient doubt' to justify a ]
verdict of full acquittal. But on the 21st, Madeline ;
purchases arsenic st the store of Mr. Murdoch.—
She signs her name as required by the act of Par- ,
Lament, and not only gives her real address, but ,
has the (lose, value sixpence only, put down to her ,
father’s account. Miss Smith explains the pur- ,
chase by stating, that she used arsenic as a cos- ■
rneiic, by dissolving it in the water in which she |
washed—a process respecting which scientific opin- .
ions are divided. However, L’Angelier is ill
again on the night of the 22d, but recovers a sec
ond time. i
The time passes on, aud we must conclude there |
are more negotiations for the surrender of the let- ,
ters, for Miss Smith still keeps her engagement t
with Mr. Minnoch. On March tith she again buys (
arseuic—to poison rats or improve her complexion, j
according to her various accounts—and this time c
it is in company with Miss Buchanan, a young lady |
from the Clapton school. L’Angelier goes to Bridge s
of Allan to recruit his health, and not to the Isle i
of Wright, five hundred miles off, as his mistress j
advises. There he writes her a letter, saving he 1
believes that she is going to marry Mr. llimmcb, r
and demands direct answers to several questions "
on the subject. He is proved to be anxious for a £
letter in answer to this last missive; when he re- a
coives it, he returns in perfect health. Ho comes t
home in the highest spirits, and says the letter has
brought him back. On the 22d of March he goes j
out a little before nine o’clock. He is seen sr.un- ]
tcring uloug iu tbe neighborhood of Blyths- |
wood square, about twenty minutes past nine. ]
About mne and a half be makes a call on a friend .
who is not at home. He had gone out to see the
prisoner, having come back all the way from Bridge
of Allan for the interview; be had reached the
neighborhood of tbe prisoner’s residence—the
question is, did they meet ? The prisoner says no;
that the interview was for Saturday, not Sundav.
The prosecution asserts that they did. At all
events L’Angelier is found, four hours afterwards,
in agonies, at his own door. He is doubled up,
speechless, and has not strength to turn the latch
i key. lie dies, and dies of arsenic. The prosecu
. tion aver that he is poisoned by the prisoner; she
, declares her innocence, and suggests that he must
t have done it himself in a fit of jealousy. A Scot
tish jurv, however, decides by a majority, and the
majority has declared tlmt the evidence is not suf
ficient to prove the prisoner guilty.
It wa6 expected that the snipping of the cable
e on board the Niagara would be completed by
-about tbe 20th of July. Tbe U. S. frigate Sus
quehanna was expected to arrive in tbe Mersey on
Saturdav, the 11th. The mayor of Liverpool gave
, a splendid banquet to the officers of tbe Niagara
_ and others, to the number of about fifty, on the
[: 9th, and the speeches upon the occasion were of
1 the most friendly and gratifying description.
8 Prince Louis JTauoleon was making his marine
tour around the British Isles. He arrived at Dub
lin on the 9th.
' The East India Company have chartered six
J steamers and eleven sailing vessels for the con
“ reyance of troops to Indi# from Dublin and Ports

It is said that Baron Rothschild pledged him
z self to resign his seat for the city of London if
, the Jewish disabilities bill failed at the present
• sessions.
i A public meeting was held in Liverpool on the
■ Bth instant for the purpose of hearing and welcom
ing the Hon. Neal Dow. The attendance was
large and the guest received a warm greeting,
mixed, however, with a few hisses. Resolutions
in favor of prohibition and complimenting Mr.
Dow were adopted.
Her Majesty's government has signified an in
tention not to ratify the convention entered into
by the British minister at Lima for the protection

The recent reduction of in the East India
Company's rates of Exchange has failed to attract
any sums of importance into the Company’s trea
sury ; and thus the advisability of a former reduc
tion of *£d. may come under discussion.
France .—The Bank of France returns for the
month show a facing off cash in hand in Paris
to the extent of 2,100,000 francs, and in Jthe
branch banks 20,213,000 francs. The increase in
the bills discounted in Paris was 56,400,000 francs,
and in the provinces 29,000,000.
The recent discovery of plots against the Empe
ror, says a Paris dispatch, has induced the Em
press to join him at once at Plombiers, instead of
going alone to Biarritz.
Spain. —The Madrid journals refer in vague
terms to continued disturbances in various parts of
Spain. A band of one hundred and fifty armed
men had invaded the town of Utrera, crying
“ Long live the Republic!” They overpowered the
gendarmerie, and burned down their barracks and
the Town Hall, with all its archives, and after ex
acting a sum of eight thousand piastres from the
populace, quitted the town. An outbreak is said
to have subsequently occurred in Uretra, but a dis
patch of the 7th states that it had been completely
put down, twenty of the insurgents having been
killed, and twenty-two others who were arrested
having been sentenced to be shot.
Italy.— lt is stated in regard to the recent revo
lutionary outbreak that so few join
the movement, countermanded it, left Genoa and
escaped from Leghorn on board a ship carrying
the Portuguese flag. His accomple, Miss White,
had been arrested at Genoa, as she refused to
leave, and had declared her intention to undergo
a trial.
A letter from Leghorn says that government ac
counts report fifteen soldiers killed and twenty in
surgents shot, -who were captured with arms in
their hands. Private accounts estimate the sol
diers killed at twenty-six and the insurgents at
sixty. The Piedmontese Gazette says that the
number of persons arrested at Genoa was fifty-five,
including thirty-two Piedmontese subjects.
At Naples alf was quiet, but strangers were or
dered to write their names on their doors. The
official journal announces that the bands of insur
gents who disembarked at Sapri had been attacked
by the troops at Padula and one hundred of them
killed and thirty wounded. The greater part of
those who escaped had siuco been arrested.
The Paris Pays says that the movement was the
result of a vast conspiracy which would hare been
felt beyond Italy. A cine to it had been in the
hands of the French government fora fortnight,
and several arrests of parties implicated had been
made in Paris, where the revolutionary movement
was to have been put in practice as well as iu
Spain.
At Bologna, the papal procession had been re
ceived with groans and hisses, on account of the
Pope’s refusal to grant certain concessions to the
people.
Austria.— The King of Prussia Lad arrived at
Vienna. There is considerable political impor
tance attached to this interview between the sov
ereigns of Austria and Prussia.
Portugal. —lt is stated that the eldest daughter
of Prince Charles Ilohenzolleru Sigmaringen is the
utfianced bride of the King of Portugal.
Greece. —The government had published a no
tice declaring that all the reports m reference to
the succession to the throne of Greece, were with
out foundation, and that the question was already
regulated by the Constitution.
Turkey.— Letters from Constantinople state that
a note had been addressed to the Porte, (identical I
in contents as well as in form,) by the representa
tives of France, Russia, Prussia and Sardinia, pro
testing in a very unambiguous manner against <
the behavior of the Moldavian authorities in the 1
affair of the electors, and holding the Porte re- i
sponsible. <
Lord Redcliffe is said to have received instruc- <

Arabian Horses in Kentucky*
In our report of the proceedings of the celebra*
tion of the 4th, at Lexington, Kentucky, we made 1
a brief allusion to the Arabian homes imported by
N. Keene Richards, Esq., of Georgetown, Ken
tucky. There are many of our readers whose in
terest in horses is such that they will read with
nleaaure some further statements about these Ara
bians.
Mr. Richards visited Morocco, passed through the
interior of Algeria to Tunis, thence to Egypt,
thence through Arabia Petrea and the Desert,
Last of Damascus as far as Palmyra. On this, his
first visit to the East, he selected two stallions,
Mokhladi and Massoud, and a grey mare, the first
mentioned bred by the Turubine tribe in Arabia
Petrea, and the two latter by the Anayza tribe,
lie brought them home safely to Kentucky, and
finding that his expectations concerning them
were realized, ho commenced making preparations
for another trip to thfl» lvast, determined to spare
no trouble nor expense in procuring the best blood,
as wall as tlurfinest formed horses in the Deseit.
Mr. Layard'has expressed the opinion that no
Arab of the best blood has been brought to Eng
land. Mr. Richards knew this, and the great
ditliculty that has always been experienced in se
curing the best. After two years spent in investi
gation as to the best moans of procuring the best
blood of the desert, he matured his plans and
started again to the East, accompanied bv Mr.
Troye, an artist, who has furnished some admira
ble drawings of the horses bought—and by his
cousin, Mr. Keene, with a Syrian, who attended
him ou his first journey, and knew much about the
horses of the East. This Syrian suddenly died, '
and the party delayed seven months in Damascus, ;
while Mr. Keene acquired the Arabic language,
and informed himself as to the best way of getting 1
to that tribe of Bedouins iu Arabia, possessing the 1
type of horse they were seeking. They entered
ihe desert, and the result of their expedition was
the purchase of a horse of superior form aud blood !
from one of the Sheikhs of the tribe, but after
wards exchanged by giving heavy boot for a bet- '
!er, called Sacklowie.
Besides this, Mr. Richards obtained a colt, sup
posed to be the best young horse in the A nay za '
tribe; a grey colt, a mare and two Dromedaries.
All of these horses were brought safely home, so
that Mr. Richards has now on his farm near '
Georgetown, five Arab stallions and three marcs.
His object is not to breed pure Arabians, but to
cross this Arab stock with Kentucky thorough
breeds. The three stallious to which Mr. Richards
specially invites the attention of horse-fanciers are
MocJJialadi , A/asaoud and Sackluoil. The first is a :
grey, fourteen hands one inch, a horse from the
Turabiue tribe of Bedouins. The second is a chest
nut, fifteen hands, bred by the Anayza Bedouins.
The third is a mahogany bay, fifteen hands, and
bred by the Anayza tribe. The colts of the first
and second took the prize last fall at Lexington, in
the ring of thorough-breds under one year."
The size of these horses may excite remark. Mr.
Richards states that there are not fifty pure bred
horses in the desert over fifteen hantls one inch
high. Layard only saw one mare over fifteen
hands. Not one of the Arabs from whose loins
sprung the Euglish thorough-breds, was over fif
teen hands. Vet the progeny of these horses are
of good size, and able to pack heavy weights
through four mile heats.
Death of Lieut. Spellman.— On Saturday morn
ing last our city sustained a heavy loss in the death
of Mr. George W. Spellman, a worthy young gen
tleman of our city, esteemed and highly apprecia
ted by all who enjoyed the pleasure of his acquain
tance. It is not our province to speak of the vir
tues and many amiable qualities of the deceased,
; for upon the societies, civil and military, of which
’ he was a worthy member, this gratefhl though
‘ mournful duty more properly devolves. His re
mains were followed to their last resting place by
‘ the Order of Odd Fellows, of which he was a be
loved member, and the different military compa
' nies of the city, the United Rifles, of which com
: pany he was the Fourth Lieutenant, acting as ©3-
' cort, and the Columbus Guards and City Light
1 Guards joining in the procession, in fall dress, with

as a man sows so Jshall he reap." The truth of
the lesson drawn from every day observation, but
added point and conviction to the Rev. Doctor’s
remarks; and his hearers, by their marked atten
tion, acknowledged the force of his words and
felt their responsibility to society and to each other
as fathers, mothers, sons and daughters. Would
that every father and mother in Georgia could
have heard him on the occasion. _ On Monday
evening, the Sophomore declamation for prizes
came off, and the following young men were
awarded the prizes: G. W. Ladson, first prize,
and W. P. Johnson, E. M. Greene and J. D.
Brown divided the second prize. On Tuesday
morning the Junior exhibition was the order of
the day. A number of young men in the class did
not speak; the following were those who delivered
original orations:
John Hardeman—The Rise and Progres of lib
erty.
Theo. Hunter—What is Happiness?
W. Augustus Little—Woman.
A. W. Morrison—Our Country.
J. H. Nall—American Pioneers.
J. W. Nisbet—Southern Statesmen.
Oliver P. Poe—The Heroes of ’76.
D. N. Speer—Preston Brooks.
J. F. White—Changes.
C. J. Williamson—Bachelors.
The Alumni oration was delivered by Col. Chas.
G. Campbell, of Bainbridge, and the distribution
of Sophomore prizes, with an address, by James
S. Hook, Esq., of Sandersville.
The subject of the oration by Col. Campbell was,
“The duties which American citizenship imposes
upon the educated men of the country.” Col. C.
was free and bold in his disapproval of the dema
goguism of the dav, and the unhallowed means and
tricks used by individuals for promotion, from the
highest to the lowest offices of the country. He
desired a higher standard of political ancf social
morality among educated men, and called upon
them to frown down the petty resorts of office
seekers. He desired to see education diffused
generally among the masses, as a cheek upon the
corruptions of the day. Col. C.’s effort was cred
itable to himself, and we heard it highly extolled
by those who were judges of its merits.
The address of Mr. Hook, upon the delivery of
the prizes to the Sophomore class, was neatand
elegant, and well suited to the occasion.
Wednesday being the great day of the occasion,
quite a number of visitors, besides those of our
citizens, were in attendance. The graduating class
was the largest that ever left the College, number
ing twenty-seven. Below, we give the names of
those that delivered orations, with the other exer
cises of the day:

Address to tbe Phi Delta and Thalian Societies,
by Geo. A Gordon, Esq., of Savannah.
The young men acquitted themselves with credit.
We will, however, here remark, that we think it
would be better for young men in College to have
less of politics in their speeches. A College forum
is not the place for fathers to learn the rudiments
of their government,or to be advised of the value
of American liberty, the rights of the South, or
the value of the Union.
The address of Mr. Gordon was an able produc
tion and well delivered. We agree with him, that
southern men should send southern boys to south
ern Colleges. Aud we are happy to believe that
the fathers of the South arc awakening up to the
importance of such a course. We .should be hap
py to see the address in print.
MLe are glad to announce that the University is
in a Prosperous condition, and can boast as able
Professors as any in the South.

Opening ol'the Campiilsn- Tlie Discus
sion Hi Newnnu— .Heeling of Judge
Drown and Mr. Hill.
AVe had the pleasure of attending the meeting
at Nenuan on Tuesday, between the two candi
dates for Governor, and the two candidates for
Congress, in this district. The Know Nothings
had predicted that when Judge Brown should
come in contact with their “mighty Ben llill ” he
would incontinently get scared, and that Hill
would thereupon proceed yio'ittciouely" to swal
low him. Our readers can well imagine then our
disappointment, that this wonderful feat was not
performed ; and when we found that a small por
tion of Judge Brown was still left, after the feeble
attempt at demolition by Hill, we congratulate
the country that the man who was said, last year,
to have made his meals in one day of Stephens,
Toombs and Gartrell. has not d'one up Brown, so.
We are thankful to Mr. Hill for his forbearance.
11c has probably become less of a " man-eater ”
since last year.
The meeting at Newnan was one of the most
orderly and interesting we hare ever seen. The
agreement about the terms of discussion was left
to two committees of the respective parties—
Judge Brown having expressed to liis friends Ins
desire that there should be fair and honorable
terms agreed on. The committees arranged them
as follows: Judge Brown should open the discus
sion with a speech an hour long—Mr. Hill to fol
low in an hour and a half—Judge Brown to reply
in a half hour—Col. Tidwell to speak an hour, and
Col. Gartrell an hour.
Under this mutually satisfactory arrangement
Judge Brown opened the debate in a calm, dis
passionate and lucid review of the present posi
tion of the Democratic party aDd its title to the
confidence and support of the southern people.
He showed up in a most effective style, the multi
tndmous changes of that ephemeral thing, "Know
Nothingism,” especially upon the Kansas ques
tion. He made the inconsistency of their present
platform with their past professions or resolutions,
stand out in a most ridiculous attitude. He tore
the thin veil from of!' ihe hideous features of the
concern, stripped it of all its empty professions of
‘•intense devotion to the country,” aud showed it
to be a dismembered wreck—fit only for the scorn
and contempt of mankind.
On the subject of Walker's policy in Kansas,
Judge Brown took bold and unequivocal ground.
He condemned, in unmeasured terms, his osficious
intervention—bis impertinent threats and false ar
?unient in favor of Kansas becoming a free State,
lie approved of the third resolution of the Demo
cratic Convention, and said that he had confidence
in the President, and was willing to wait until he
had full time to investigate, officially. Walker’s
course— and when he did, and it became evident
to every body that Buchanan participated in, and
approved of’the obnoxious policy oi Walker, he
should no longer sustain him.
Anticipating Mr. Hill’s clamor about Walker
and Buchanan, he demanded of that gentleman
(granting all that was alleged of them be true)
what remedy could he propose to cure the ills of
which he complained? Until he showed some
remedy, his complaints could not entitle him to
ihe confidence of any one.
Judge Brown was listened to with profound atten
tion bv the large auditory. Hardly a person moved
during its delivery. The honest,’ straight forward
look of his manly countenance charmed everybody.
The staunch old Democracy shouted, and rejoiced
that they had so true and able a candidate. In his
oratory, J udge Brown has nothing of ad cap tan
dvm. His ambition is confined to the construction
of a plain honest, and unanswerable argument, to
impress the.truth on every mind. His stern adhe
rence to truth prevents him from indulging in the
slightest sophistry.
Mr. Hill followed Judge Brown in his usual
style—showing vast ability in the management of
a hopelessly bad cause and indnlging_in his dex
terous sophisty to deceive the people. Fortunately
they understand him so well that he does no harm,
land his speeches consequently beeome pleasing
exhibitions of ingenuity without convincing a
single man that what he says, is so. Mr. Hill ex
pressed himself dreadtully sorry at Walker’s vio-
lation of tbe Kansas bill, which he condemned as
“ dangerous and anti-southern doctrine.” One
would have thought he would have been glad at
it. He brought bis discourse to a clese by giving
everybody the hint that the only war to rectify
the present difficulty was to elect him Governor // /
He even invited Judge Brow n to come into the
American party, and promised that they would
not swear him if he’d come—they’d take his
word.
The Judge most happily retorted to the great
amusement of the crowd—that when he joined the
American party—which God forbid—he would
prefer to go in as the wool hat boys—went in—and
not as Mr. Hill did. He would take all the obli
gations, as he was one of the wool hat boys him
self.
After the speeches of the two candidates for
Governor, Messrs. Tidwell and Gartrell addressed
the crowd.
We have not time to say anything about Col.
Gartrell’s speech, except it was one of the very
best we have ever heard from that eloquent gen
tleman. To-morrow we will allude to this part of
the discussion more at length.
brown’s retort on hill —“ben hill the fast man.”
One of the happiest hits in the able speech of
Judge Brown at Newnan, was his reply to Mr.
Hill’s charge that Buchanan was too slow a Presi
dent for him. The charge and the reply are accu
rate indications of the character of the" two men,
the one rash, reckless and impetuous in his state
ments and conduct—the other grave, dignified and
deliberate in everything. Judge Brown impresses
you with the solidity of his mind and character.
Mr. Hill with his smartness, his light manner and
his inconsiderate remarks.
On the occasion referred to, Judge Brown, in his
opening speech, had commented upon the great
responsibility connected with all high official po
sitions, and especially that of the Ruler of so vast
a country as ours, and how necessary it was for
the President to be fully informed of all the facts
in every case where he "had to exercise his power
—it was necessary for a government never to act
with hasle.
Mr. Hill in replying to this remark of Judge
Brown, said, he believed in a fast Government, one
that would act quickly and with dispatch—that
Buchanan was too slow for him, and he was afraid
Brown would make too slow a Governor.
Judge Brown retorted “ It was true, that he was
not a fast man. Mr. Hill was correct in his opin
ion of him. He, Mr. Hill, was evidently from his
speech a fast youno man, and if he were elected
Governor, he would doubtless make a fast Govern
or! and if the people wanted such a Governor
they had better cast their votes for Hill. If the
people should honor him with the high position
for which his party had demanded his services, he
expected to be a slow Governor. He never expect
ed to act in haste and repent at leisure—he would
surround himself with wise counsellors—he would
reflect well before acting, and then endeavor to
the best of his ability to discharge faithfully the
duties of his office. If the people wanted a fast
man, they would not find what they desired in
him.”
The applause of the auditory was immense, at
this telling retort, and when he spoke of Uill as
the fast candidate, the hit was responded to with
thundering cheers.

Rev. Samlei. K. Talmage, D. D.— Dear Sir: At
a recent meeting of our company, the following
resolution was unanimously adopted :
Resolved, Thut Dr. Talmage be requested to fur
msh us a copy of the sermon delivered by him at
Milledgeville on the sth inst., for publication.
Being appointed a committee to coni muni cate
with you, and sensible of the conviction which
prompted the request, we add our testimony to the
general belief, that so able, eloquent and evangeli
cal an exposition of the text which furnished the
foundation of your discourse, would be read with
profit by all who heard it pronounced, as well as
by noultitudes who had not that privilege.
Hoping that, at your earliest leisure, you will
comply with our request, with sentiments of high
consideration, we subscribe ourselves,
Yours very respectfully. Ac.

Lieut. R. C. Forsyth, /■« Uom.

Oglethorpe University, I
July 25tb, 1857. *
Lieut. W. C. Hodges, Lieut. R. C. Forsytli, Pri
vate Jnr*. Peabody, Committee:
GtniUmen : I feel flattered by the action of the
Columbus Guards, and no less by the kind and
courteous manner in which you, their committee,
have conveyed to me the resolution, requesting a
copy of my sermon of the sth instant, for publi
cation.
I must very respectfully decline the publication;
and, nerhans, it is due to your kindness that 1
should frankly assign my reasons.
“I am very much in the predicament, of a brother
clergyman, of whom I have read. He preached a
sermon during a thunder storm, and his hearers
requested a copy for publication. The preacher,
conscious that the circumstances had made him
impressive for once, replied that he would furnish
them with the sermon, provided they would pub
lish the thunder with it, to explain its effects.
Whatever special impression my sermon may
have made, is attributed to the soldiery bearing of
the Columbus Guards and their companies in arms
from other parts of the State, with tneir beautiful
and touching exhibition ofreverance for the sacred
Sabbath day of the Encampment. It was a su
blime scene, which could not fail to luspire both
speaker aud bearers. Thus has been inadvertent
ly transferred to the speaker what was due to the
soldier. The sermon, severed from the scene,
would appear comparatively tame. It was the elo
quence of your conduct, ant! nut of my bps, that
made the scene so imposing.
I will not, .with an affected modesty, unworthy
of my office, deny that the proposition I selected
for discussion, and which I believe I demonstrated,
was one of vital importance, viz: the Divine au
thority of civil government, and the necessity of j
enforcing civil law, “ If needs be, at the point of
the bayonet and the price of blood,” to put down
the treasonable resistance of frantic Abolitionism
in one section of the country, and to crush the
bloody violence of mob, or “Lynch” law, in any
section. I claim to have selected an appropriate •
theme, not unworthy of the day or the occasior.
But in a hastily prepared address to the ear, 1
could not elaborate such an argument as should be
presented to the eye and the conscience of the read
er, a discussion which is eminently called for at
this crisis of the history of our Heaven-guarded
nation.
I may hereafter address mv humble pen to this
topic, if some abler one should not be employed
in the needful work. The pulpit, in some parts of
our land—to the injury of evangelical piety, the
disgrace of religion, and the disgust of all order j
loving men—instead of proclaiming “Jesus Christ,
and him crucified,” has quite long enough been i
desecrated to the unhallowed purpose of pander-1
ing to the spirit of sedition and outlawry. It is
high time that its batteries were withdrawn from!
the unholy crusade, and that its voice were heard !
uttering the inspired denunciations of Heaven i
against those who “despise government,”—(2d j
Pet., 2:10,)- and sustaining the civil authority, in |
putting down rebellion, cost what it may, in the j
shape of powder, rifle bal!s and b100d .5
I trust your company will, under these circum-;
stances, pardon me for declining their kind re- i
quest.
With my best wishes for the prosperity of the
Columbus Guards, and for the happiness, indi
vidually, of the officers and privates of the Com
pany, I have the honor to subscribe myself, gen
tlemen,
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
Samuel K. Talmage.
