KANSAS.
The papers are filled with confused accounts
of the late elections in Kansas. It is general
ly eonceded that the Pro-Slavery Party have
succeeded in electing Marshal to be Governor,
and that the contest is close between the can
didates for Congress. Upon the question sub
mitted fcy the Territorial Legislature, which
•was lately convened by Secretary Stanton—
■that is, for the O*Mlitution or against it—the
Pro-Shivery men have stood aloof, the Free
State men polling their whole strength against
the Constitution, as a matter «f course. These
are items of information, valuable only as news,
and have no bearing whatever upon the real
question now before the country. Whether
the one party or the other has been triumphant
in the election of State Officers—and whether
the number of votes polled against the Lecomp
ton Constitution be small or large, are queries,
which, however interesting in thoru«J ve.->, can
not, in tiie slightest degree, affect the issue i»w
made between the North and South.
The peojdcof Kansas, in the exercise of their
undoubted right, long ago elected a Territorial
Legislature, which in its turn, in the exercise
•of a right equally undoubted, provided for the
'assembling of a Convention at Lecompton, to
whom was assigned the duty of establishing a
State Constitution. This Convention, compo
sed of delegates fresh from the people, and act
ing under powers expressly delegated, met and
performed its functions—establishing a Consti
tution, and submittiug to the popular vote, tlie
, vexed question, whether domestic slavery
should lie allowedin Kansas. The proceedings
have been regular in every step —and upon
each of these questions—the election of mem
bers of the legislature, the election of delegates
to the Convention, the inhibition or the estab
lishment of slavery—the people of Kansas, of
4111 parties, have been perfectly free t» vote.—
■On the 21st of December last, the last ques
tion—-the Constitution itith slavery or without
slavery—was submitted to the popular vote—
and the result shews as follows: for the Con
stitution with slavery 6,063 —for the Constitu
tion without slavery, 576. The Free State fac
tion refused to vote cither pro or rea, and suf
fered the case to go against them by default.—
So far as the people ot the territory are con
cerned, the work was finished on the 21st of
December last—and no subsequent election
held under the decree of Stanton and his Black
Republican comrades, can at all invalidate that
decision. From first to last, the friends and
framers of the Jxicompton Constitution have
proceeded acecording to law and usage—and
they may safely defy their opponents to point
to a single breach of precedent which they
have committed.
Shull Kansas lie admitted with this Consti
tution? Or shall the South succumb to the
mere force of a numerical majority, unsupport
ed by even the shadow of right or justice?—
Such is the question—more grave than any
which we have ever yet had to consider—in
comparison with which the seizure of Walker
in Nicaragua and the thousand other topics
with which the Southern Press is now tilled,
dwindle into utter and absolute insignificance.
Wc are now to lenni whether there is any hope
for Southern equality in the Union—and if
we find that there is none—if we find that
those in whom we have put our trust have de
ceived and deserted us, if, in short, Kansas
shall be rejected merely because her Constitu
tion sanctions tlie institution of slavery, we
have then to learn whether the South will
strike for inde[>cndence, or, succumbing to the
mere power of numbers, sink into the state
of vassalage and dependency. Wc are in the
power of the North—and sail, as is the admis
sion, our best hope is in the moderation of
our masters.
We have arrived at that point, where, for
the enforcement of our rights, we trust, not to
tlie written constitution nor the justice of our
cause, but to the unstable passions of mortals,
and the uncertain faith of politicians. The de
fection of a single man fills us with trepidation,
and the mere caprice of a majority may at any
moment subject us to spoliation and dishonor.
THE “SAVANNAH REPUBLICAN" AND THE
"STATE PRESS.”
The editor of the Savannah Republican. af
ter “sleeping” for four nights over an article
in our last number, awoke on Tuesday morn
ing, and informed ns that “ (our parapragh)
“ was designed to be understood in its literal
sense and as applicable to the Editor of this
(Republican} piqair. he has simply to say that
it is infamously false,” ami then proceeds to
curse the paragraph in its “letter,” in its
“spirit,” and in “all its parts,” after the fash
ion of a [Roman Catholic Anathema. It
seems to us that a censor of manners ami a
stickler for the “ proprieties,” like the Editor
of the Republican, might have thought it more
consonant with the rules of good breeding ami
good sense to have satisfied himself as to this
little “I/ - ,” before all this vaporing. If our re
marks were not designed to be understood in a
literal sense and as applicable to the Editor of
the Republican then there was no occasion for
this gasconade; and if they were so designed,
then they were not to lie answered with hard
words and ugly epithets. But us the Editor of
the Republican has not chosen to resolve the
doubt, nor to remove the “if,” assuredly we
shall not take that duty upon ourselves. .Lan
guage like that of the Republican preclude* ex
planation; and even if it did not, it is not our
purpose to accompany our articles with a run
ning commentary for the benefit of those who
cannot or will not understand their meaning.
We retract nothing, ami leave our words to
explain themselves. The text stands—eon- ■
strue it, who will. If the Editor of the Repub
bican considers our language applicable to him
self, he is welcome to appropriate it and make
the most of it
VETO MEETING.
In another column, we lay before our read- .
ers the proceedings of a meeting held in this
county to take into consideration the Govern- ,
or’s veto of the Bank Bill. Tlie Resolutions
adopted by the meeting were drafted by Col. ,
Sami'EL T. Bah.et. ihkl are, Hke everything i
that he says and writes, bold, sensible, and
honest. They need no comment from us, as <
they speak for themselves, and will no doubt i
meet with the hearty approbation of a vast 1
majority of the citizens of Georgia. i
“MAIN TRUNK."
We are gratified to learn that thirty-two
miles of the " Main Trunk" Railroad has been ■
put under contract, from the “ Initial Point”
in the corner of Appling, Ware, and Wayne
counties, to the “ Double Branches ” in Ware
county. The Savannah and Gulf Railroad, we
understand, is nearly complete to the point of
juncture; mid the Brunswick and Florida
Road is finished two miles West of the Satilla
River, mid graded sonic distance further. Our
esteemed townsmen, Messrs. Robt. & Chas.
Collins, are among the contractors. Their
business tact and energetic characters give full
assurance that this important work will be
pushed vigorously forward in the direction ot
Thomasville, Bainbridge, and the Gulf. The
1 completion of this Road will add greatly to
the prosperity of our Seaports, Savannah and
Brunwick, and give a great impetus to the
growth and development of the Southern por
-1 tion of our State. Every patriotic Georgian
doubtless feels a deep interest in the success of
i this enterprise.
PUBLIC MEETING IN 8188.
According to previous notice, a portion of
, the citizens of Bibb county, irrespective of par
ty, assembled at the Court Hpuse, in the city
of Macon, on Saturday, January 23d, 1858, for
the purpose of giving public expression to their
sentiments in regard to Gov. Brown's veto of
the Bank Bill. James Tinley Esq., was invited
to the chair, and E. C. Rowland requested to
act as Secretary.
The Chairman, in explaining the object of
the meeting, remarked that although he him
self was an “ American” in principle, and had
voted for Hill for Governor, he was neverthe
less a Brown man on the Bank question, al
though not a Democrat; that he had recently
traveled through South Western Georgia, mid
found that all his political bretheren agreed
with him in approving of the veto of the Bank
Bill, and as far as his knowledge and observa
tion went, this wils the prevailing sentiment,
with a large majority of both political parties
throughout the State. It was right, therefore,
for us to hold county meetings, and let our
opinions be known on a subject of such great
importance to the people.
On motion a committee wastlien appointed,
consistingot Messrs. S. T. Bailey, T. C. Nis
bet, E. L. Strohecker, Green Wilder, Needham
Mims, IL IL Howard, Abram Jordan, O. A.
Lochrane, Charles Stubbs, and Asa E. Earnest,
who reported through their Chairman, Col.
Bailey, the following Preamble and Resolutions,
which were received with applause and unani
mously adopted :
We hold these truths self evident—that all
citizens of a Republic have equal rights.
That wealth confers uo superiority before the
law.
That an act of incorporation cannot sanctify
a breach of the moral law. That there ought
not to be one law for the rich mid another for
the poor—one for the planter, merchant and
mechanic, and another for corporations.
If the humble citizen may be sent to the
dungeon of a prison for the refusal to pay his
creditor in legal money,
If the fraiidiilentiin incorporated speculator
may be indicted, fined mid imprisoned, and
branded as a cheat and swindler for obtaining
credit on false pretences—we cannot under
stand the morality that would shield a Bank
from the same penalties, unless it bo to teach
the citizen the pernicious lesson of Tartar mo
rality, that the sublimity of crime secures its
impunity.
The law has unwisely secured to the Banks
a monopoly of creating for the State a circula
ting medium with many great privileges, de
nied to us under ruinous penalties. It wa«
therefore, their duty to secure to us, at all
times, and at whatever cost, snch circulation as
the constitution directs.
Yet, instead of fulfilling this obligation, they
have repeatedly and grossly violated it for the
last forty years, thereby causing ruinous loss
and distress to the citizen, and especially the
humble bill-holders, who are least able to bear
it; while the delinquents have escaped; and
too often enriched by the wanton violation of
their trust.
Therefore, Resolved, as the opinion of this
meeting—
-Ist. That long years of litigation in the
ctate Courts to no purpose, have persuaded
the citizens of Georgia, that all civil remedies
against Bank delinquencies, are worthless and
result only in ruinous delay and expense to
plaintiffs.
2d. Rewired, That smarting under this per
suasion, the people required their Representa
tives in the years 1833 and 1840, to pass penal
laws for their protection against Bank default
ers, thereby throwing the cost and expense of
the remedy on the State, where it justly be
longs, which laws faithfully executed, could not
have failed to protect us. if suffered to remain
in force.
3. Rosolred, That the late Legislature in re
pealing those penal nnd protective laws ami
sanctioning the violation of nil right, justice
and law on the part of tlie Banks, saying to
them in so many words that they may have
' their own time to redeem their bills in the
hands of the poor—have betrayed their trust—
proved faithless to their constituents, and sanc
tioned fraud and injustice.
4. Rcsolced, That by this action of the
Legislature, the planter is subjected to the [
power of the speculator—the merchant and
trader to the shaving shops of the Broker, and
the poor mechanic is deprived of employment,
and is compelled to pay nearly a double price '
for all the necessaries of life, by reason of our 1
money being worthless rags beyond the limits '
of Georgia.
5. Resolrcd, That such Legislation unre- I
bilked, is a most pernicious lesson to the ris- ,
ing generation, sanctioning, as it does a wan- ■
ton violation of contract, and a disregard of
commercial honor.
6. Rewired, That in vetoing n bill thus un- '
just, immoral and unconstitutional. Governor '
Brown has endeared himself to all the right- I
minded citizens of Georgia, us a fearless, able
and honest friend to the rights ot all her citi
zens of whatever party. •
7. Resol red, That those members of the Leg- ,
islatdre, who sustained the Governor in his un
equal war with the world, the flesh and the
Devil, in the Legislature and in the lobby, are |
entitled to and do receive our thanks.
8. Rewired, That money, like the yard-stick
of measurement, lieing the standard of tlie val
ue of labor and property, should, hke the yard- 1
stick. I>e of a uniform length at all times and ■
everywhere—nothing but gold and silver can
furnish such a standard, mid to attempt it with
Linen Rags must result as it ever has result'll
in a cheat mid swindle of the people.
9. Therefore Resulted, 'I hat the ]>eoplc
ought not to rest till they amend their consti
tution, expelling these rags from circulation
and inviting back the s|>ecie which they have
expelled.
10. Rewired, That if on the next meeting
of the Legislature, they do not immediately
repeal that obnoxious law sanctioning the
Bank Suspension, they will prove themselves
the enemies of the people of Georgia and de
serving of condign punishment.
It was then ordered that the proceedings of
the meeting be signed by the chairman and
secretary, and published in the Macon papers,
with the request for other papers friendly to
the cause, to copy the same. The meeting then
adjourned.
JAMES TINLEY, Chairman,
E. 0. Rowland, Secretary.
[for THE STATE CHESS.)
THE TWO GOVERNORS THE BANKS
The present Executive of Georgia has felt it
his sworn duty to veto an ai t legalizing the bud
faith of most of the Georgia Banks. The Leg
islature passed it nevertheless, and thereby
condemned the veto. The members of that
body tided with the Banks. Taking courage
from this, and presuming upon their money
power, the suspended Banks, aided by their
little orators and little editors, attempt to abuse,
ridicule and belittle Gov. Brown. Making
“discretion the better part of valor,” they sel
dom condescend to answer the doctrines laid
don nin hi* Message. < tccasionally, some orer
leulous friend of the “orer issues,” seizes upon
some isolated part, and wastes a column or so
in twaddle, but the only effect of the effort is
tlie more fully to develope that the Governor
is right. The friends of these Banks carry on
their work of detraction with more impunity
because Gov. Brown is comparatively a young
man, and has not passed through the ceremo
nials of Congressional corruptions. Bank favor
itism and editorial pufferies. He has been on
ly a good lawyer—an upright Judge—a Geor
gia Senator, and an honest man. These quali
fications arc not regarded sufficient to preside
over such incorporated money powers, and
snch Bank Lords as wield it; and it is no cause
for wonder, fora man of correct principles can
never satisfy a power, that gives us irredeema
ble paper for specie, and makes a virtue of bad
faith. But the maledictions of the Banks, and
the condemnation of the Legislature have fall
en upon men who have filled the most imposing
of places, and acquired the highest of distinc
tions.
Georgia Ims before, and more than once,
been “Bank ridden.” Among other Banks, and
the one which iu its day exercised more influ
ence over the Legi.-lature than any other, was
the Bank of Darien. Session after session, it
was the subject of investigation, mid almost in
variably (if not always) was reported by reso
lution sound, and worthy of public confidence.
And this in the face of the fact that the State
Treasury had thousands of its bills that it could
not redeem, and that by its showing, it had ab
sorbed—indeed, by some means, squandered
nearly all the individual stock of $325,000, and
released the subscribers. The State had paid
1 in as her share of stock in hard dollars, the
1 same amount, and it was nearly al) that re
mained bo feed upon, it indeed that w,,-there,
and she was liable to the Bill holders for the
redemption of the bills. She was then, to use
a homely phrase, left “the bag to hold." As
any prudent and honest man might have seen,
that Bank was obliged to break, and yet. by
controlling the, Legislature, it continued to do
business until 183’.*, when it closed hopelessly
insolvent, and thousands ot dollars were thus
lost by the citizens of Georgia. Once upon a
time when it was under investigation by the
legislature, for it was the subject of yearly,
monthly, daily and hourly complaints, and
when it was well known that one of the State
1 Hrectors previously had retired from the board
and gave as Ids reason to the Executive, ( which
lie laid before the Legislature,) its bad manage
ment, the Legislature passed another one of its
resolutions endorsing the soundness and good
credit of the Bank. This was, 1 think iu the year
1829, for I have not the aets of that year accessi
ble.
At any rate flic then Governor of Georgia took
upon himself to veto that resolution and gave
as hi* ground, that it contained a falsehood to
his certain knowledge, and having some regard
for the truth, he could not give a falsehood
executive sanction. That Legislature howev
ever like the last, past a resolution by a two
third vote over the veto. The Governor was
denounced abused and ridiculed by a portion
of the Georgia Press, and in the town of Da
rien, was hung in effigy. That man who thus
acted and was thus treated was and is in the
opinion of thousands, the ablest man Georgia
ever produced, and was no less a man than the
world renowned John Forsyth. Like Gov.
Brown, the Banks triumphed over him in the
Legislature, and the Press abused him, but the
people sustained him, and he triumphed over
all. And so will the people sustain and so will
triumph Gov. Brown, whene'er the people
have an opportunity to be heard.

AN INTERESTING TRIAL IN LEE COUNTY.
J/rMrre. Editors;— ln one of the December ’
numliers of the State Press, I stated that a man
by the name of Thomas Thomas killed Jos.
Cross in Starkville. December the sth. and that
the criminal had been arrested, etc. Having
written and published the above, justice to I
both parties require that 1 should farther inform
the public of his trial and its incidents.
The prisoner being brought into Court
Thursday, 14th of January, announced himself'
ready for trial. The first business was to pro- I
cure au impartial Jury. Three days of the
Court were s]>ent in doing this—from Thurs
day until Saturday evening. Monday morning,
the counsel for the State began examining wit
ness. Two and a halt days more of the trial
were consumed in getting the testimony on
both sides. After dinner Wednesday, It. L.
Lyon of Albany made the opening speech in
behalf of the State. This was not one of Mr.
Lyon’s ablest efforts but of course highly cred
itable. D. A. \ ason of the same city followed ,
him, iu behalf of the prisoner: Mr. Vason show
ed himself deeply interested in his client s !
welfare. Other able speeches were made—
four in all on each side, the concluding speech
being made by the lion. Willis Hawkins of |
Americus, for the State. The last speaker,
more than sustained Ins high character as an I
orator and able lawyer. The court room iras
at oilent at the grace inlets than fee minutes
after he arose. The spectators were -spell
bound by him for nearly two hours. It has
been mv fortune to listen to but rcry Jii*, if*
any abler efforts any occasion. He has a
higle. bright and hunorabb destiny awaiting
him. The argument closed Thursday evening
—the trial lasting a week. The Jury after
being charged by His Honor, Alex Allen, re
tired and after remaining out some Jitte time
brought in a verdict, “ we, the Jury find the
prisoner guilty of murder." The scene w hich
followed—and I forbear to describe it, was tru
ly an affecting one. Before the adjournment
i of Court. Thomas Thoma* w as sentenced to be
I hanged on the 12th of March next. I under
stand however that his case will l>e carried up
to the Supreme Court. The failure of the pris
oner to be acquitted cannot lie attributed to his
counsel, for I cheerfully bear witness, that
they used every exertion, that men of b urning
and influence could do to bring about that re
sult.
This trial has been n most interesting one,
and created excitement and interest in the [ad
joining counties. Its termination, though in
; the highest degree lamentable to the prisoner,
may do some good in preventing others com
mitting crime in any shape whatever. What a
pity that a man. just in the prime of life, Idle
Thomas, shouldbring such a deep disgrace upon
his family anil such ir eighty tengeance upon
< himself. Better to be < ailed a coward than

(FOR THE STATE PRESS.]
Messrs. Editors: —-Our wise Legislature has
rewarded the Banks for their bad faith with
the public by granting them extraordinary
privileges and immunities. Since so much has
been done for the Banks, it is right that some
thing should now be done for tlie people. If
the Banks suspend, why can’t we snspend
also ? If they are not sued for their debts, why
I should we bo sued for ours? The fact is the
Bunks were represented in the Legislature, nnd
got what they wanted ; but the people’s- Rep
resentatives (with a few honorable exceptions)
proved false to them, anil consequently we were
' shamefully cheated. Owing to the fault of the
i Banks, the people arc cramped in money mat
ters when they expected the times to be easy.
I Last year they run up bills and accounts, and
j now that January lias come they find them
l selves unable to meet them. The Banks have
i stopped (laying their debts, and we have been
j obliged to stop paying ours. What is sauce
for the goose is sauce for the gander; audit
I does seem to us that an Extra Session of the
Legislature ought to be called as soon as pos
sible to legalize a general suspension, and pre
vent us from being sued and having our prop
j erty levied upon. As things now stand, this is
j nothing but just, reasonable, and proper. It
j is hoped that the “(lowers that be” will take
I this suggestion into consideration, and act up
on it “immediately if not sooner.”

"A TREAT IN STORE "
Under the above head, the Editor of the
Richmond South says:
"In connection with Gen. Walker’s eloquent
vindication of himself in his speech at the
Richmond banquet, given in our paper of yes
terday. we had intended to lay la-fore our read
ers today the masterly sjieech of Mr. Stephens,
of Georgia, upon ah the various topics connect
ed with our Central American relations, deliv
ered in Congress on Thursday last. Our pur
pose has been disappointed only in consequence
of the great length of the speech, which, taken
in connection with the arrangements necessarv
to secure a place for it in our next country edi
tion, has obliged ns to postpone its publication
for n single day. < >:i tomorrow, accordingly, our
readers may expect it. and will find it. unless
we are greatly mistaken, every gratification
which the serverest taste could require of a pub
lic speech. We bespeak for it, in esjiecial. the
attention of those who find in their reverence
for law so insurmountable a stumbling block
in the way of those sympathies to which nature
cannot but prompt them in favor of the cham
pion of n civilization for Nicaragua, modeled
after that of the Southern instead of the North
ern states of this Union.”
We will endeavor to present this S]>eoch in
full to our readers next week.

rumor in private circles at the North, that Mr.
Fillmore is to make a second marriage. The

GEORGIA ITEMS.
The following appointments have been made
by the Governor:
Benjamin May, Esq., of Stewart, Treasurer
of W. & A. It. R.
Dr. Geo. D. Philips, of llaberslxim, Auditor
of W. & A. R. ft.
Soi'tii-IVesteux Geowiia.— Emigration.—
The emigration to this section of the State, re
marks the Columbus Times, continues to pour
in and rapidly increase. It is known to be a
rich, healthy and wealthy country, and since
the railroads have penetrated her vitals, and
her produce finds a ready market, and the in
convenience of travel are in a great measure
overcome, it is increasing in population and be
coming an infiiientinl portion of the State.—
The rich cotton gl owing lands of Baker and ad
joining counties attract die fanner ami lover of
wealth from other and more barren sections of
the State ; while the lawyer nnd physician find
it to their interest and convenience to follow
the title of emigration with a view of conqie
tency and support.
Fuaxklix Coli ege.—The exercises of this
institution, says the Athens Banner, were re
sumed on the 16th. All the Professors are here
occupying their respective chairs. On account
of the late inclement weather some of the old
students have not returned. We learn, how
ever. that they are coming in by every train,
and that ajqilieants for admission are being ex
amined every day. We think the prospect for a
large number of students very cheering, and
the affairs of the college brighter generally.—
With an experienced and learned President,
and a fnll corps of energetic and eidightened
Professors, we think the old Franklin bound to
go through.
Locfsts.—A writer in the National Intelli
gencer says that the Cicada Tredecim. or thir
teen years' locusts, will make their appear
ance this year on the western border of Mis
sissippi and West Tennessee.
Mr. Gideon H. Smith, of Baltimore, Md.,
says in a note to the National Intelligencer,
tluit the locusts will not visit Georgia this year,
but in 1859, they will give the (ilanters some
thing to grumble about.
Death of Old Citizens.—Mr. Abraham
Harmon and Mr. Henry Haupt, both old citi
zens of Savannah, and companions in arms in
the war of 1812, died in that city on Sunday
morning last.
In Atlanta, Luther J. Glenn. Democrat,
has been elected Mayor, over his opponent.
Joseph Winship, American, by 107 majority.—
The entire Democratic ticket was elected.—
IVell done for Atlanta.
Making Shoes I.x Col t mbus.- —The Colum
bus (Ga.) Enquirer states that six hands man
ufactured in one day, in that city, one hundred
pair of shoes.
GENERAL ITEMS.
Private Letters from Ei i:oi-e. —Private'
letters received by commercial houses in this
1 city from their European eorresjioudents. by
the last steamer, are even more favorable than
i the accounts by the mails. They represent
that there will be an early and universal re-
I sumption of work in Manchester, and that
I yarns are already, by anticipation, in advance
iof Liverpool prices lor the raw material. A
I preference was also given to nine and twelve
months’ paper, showing that money was en
tirely easy. The aspect of affairs is highly en
couraging and should dissipate the gloom on
this side the water.
The Europa's accounts, arrived since the
above was written, contain nothing to con
flict with the ojdnion advanced.— Sar. Repub.
