[From the Milledgeville Recorder, July 12.]
Messrs. Editors —There is a question of
much importance now agitating the masses of
Democracy—a question pregnant with the fate
of the party, the solution of which will be for
the w’eal or woe, not only of the party, but of
the country.
Ought ire to nominate a candidate in oppo
sition to Governor Brown ? The question is a
simple one, and every member of the party
should speak out fearlessly, and express him
self openly and candidly, for in this “there is
“ safety in a multitude of counsellors.”
Having the interest of the party as much at
heart as any one; and having as much ambi
tion to see ths proud flig under which I have
rallied and fought since manhood gave me the
right, to enroll my name in the great army of
conservative Whigs, float in triumph, and
wreathed with victory, I, as an humble soldier
of that array, give in a few words my reason
■why I think it bad policy to run a candidate
for Governor. Is there a sane man in the
partv, who thinks for a moment that the effort
would be crowned w ith success? If there be,
I wotdd say to him, travel for a few weeks
over the State; go in any direction—among
the mountains, along the seaboard: go to the
east, go to the west, and you will find .iup
dreds, yes, thousands of good and true Ameri
cans, of proud old line Whigs —veterans of an
hundred battles —who, like the immortal
Taylor, never surrendered, but who have de
termined, after due deliberation and mature
reflection, to repose npon their arms for the
present, and will grouse only when the clarion
calls to battle against the united hosts of fede
ral misrule and corruption—and who look
upon Governor Brown as an ally in the great
cause of The People vs. Politicians, who, like
vampires are hanging around the Capitol ot
the Republic, and who are draining and cor
rupting the hearts’ blood of the nation.
If, then, there be no chance of success; if it
be true that the masses of the party cannot be
rallied in opposition to Governor Brown, will
it not be folly in the extreme to marshal the
broken ranks of our noble party, to meet the
victorious hosts of Democracy. It would be
like Leonidas and his gallant band, without
- •. .1 1.1
Thermopylffi to defend. Will it not be bad n
policy—suicidal —to be routed by an over- a
whelming defeat in October, when, by waiting *
a few months longer, the hifirdes of Democracy, s
like the army of Xerxes, will disband and per- c
ish by their own dissensions and their un- a
wieldy numbers? Already are their leaders, I
like Nubian lions, fighting over the spoils «
of the wild hunt. Then let us stand back, <
while they destroy themselves over the car- •
Cass of a corrupt party, and in 1860, when the 1
war cry will be a union ot patriots, for the 1
sake of the country, then let us rally to the £
call, and, with an unbroken trout, and with
souk; gallant statesman of the old school for a 1
leader, “shake off the dew drops which glitter ‘
on our garments, and once more march to bat- ‘
~ I
‘1« and to victory.

FROM OUB DAILY OF THXHtSBAY. JTOB 90-
Our Candidate.
The Democracy of the Third Congressional
District have just cause for congratulation up
on the action of the recent Convention in nom
inating Col. A. M. Speer as our candidate for
Congress ; and if previous personal preferences
existed in the mindsof any, we make no doubt
that all will cordially acquiesce in the nomina
tion, rally to the support of our whorthy lead
er, and bear our good old flag to victory.
Col. Speer, we can say with truth, is a man
every way deserving the confidence and sup
port of the people. A native of Georgia, a true
son of the South, an able lawyer, a skillful de
hater, a gentleman of irreproachable moral
character, and last though not least a zealous
Democrat—what more would you have 1—
i Knowing our Candidate as intimately as we do,
we repeat that the Democrats throughout the
’ District should feel proud of the course pur
sued by their Delegates, and again we say let
us one and all march to our candidate's sup
port. The party has placed him in the van
see to it that we do not' leave him to bear the
brunt of battle alone. We owe it to him, we
owe it to ourselves, to leave nothing undone
by which we can fairly elect him.
Let there be a fair field and an open fight
on both sides, and the District will be well rep
resented whether Col. Speer or Capt. Harde
man be elected. For our part while we prom
ise to loose no opportunity to strike a blow for
the former, yet we shall resort to nothing dis
honorable to defeat the latter, and we trust the
whole campaign will be conducted in the same
spirit.
Once more we say to the Democrats of the
Third, stand by your colors
Opposition Convention.
By the almost unanimous concurrence of
the Opposition press of this State, the Oppo
sition Convention to nominate a candidate for
Governor, will be held in this city, on Wednes
day the 20th of July.
It is a sensible thing in our Opposition
friends to select Macon as the place for their
Convention; but we do not admire their wis
dom so much iu running a candidate under
such desperate circumstances. We imagine
they will find it very difficult to get a candi
to take tae chances against Governor Brown.
The Democratic Meeting, Tues-
DAY EVENING, JULY 12.
As reported in yesterday’s paper, the Dem
ocratic Convention which assembled in this
city last Tuesday morning, nominated Col. A.
M. Speer, and adjourned to meet again at five
o’clock, P. M., to hear that gentleman’s res
ponse to the nomination.
At the appointed hour a large number of
citizens, in addition to the members of the
Convention, assembled at Concert Hall, and
the meeting being duly organized, Col. Speer
was introduced by the committee appointed
to wait upon him, and was most enthusi
astically greeted. Other engagements pre
vented us from arriving in time to hear the
first portion of the Colonel's remarks, and
therefore our synopsis of it has been derived,
in a measure from friends who were fortunate
enough to be present. W’e understand, how
ever, that his remarks, though brief, were
pointed, pithy, and forcible, giving the utmost
satisfaction to his Democratic hearers, and
convincing those of the Opposition, in attend
ance, that they had a gallant and able man to
contend with.
Colonel Speer addressed the Convention for
some minutes, accepting and returning thanks
for the nomination. He then briefly reviewed
the position of parties, and pledged himself to
a general canvass of the District, assuring
the meeting that he went into the contest de
termined to conquer. He would, if defeated,
return the banner unsullied by dishonor, but
his determination was to carry it in triumph.
In a word, his speech, as far as we heard it,
was one well calculated to inspire his friends
with confidence and courage. It was warmly
received and cordially applauded.
Major Steele arose and addressed the Con
vention in a pleasing and interesting manner,
at some length. He alluded to the fact that
he had come to support a different man, and
advance the interests of a more special friend
than Col. Speer; but in the action of the
meeting he entirely coincided. We had nomi
nated a good and true man, and he was satis
fied, and would pledge his utmost exertion to
effect his election. Turning round to where
Mr. Brown and Col. Lochrane sat, he alluded
to those gentlemen in a strain of eulogy, as
prominent and promising Democrats in the
District. Jle spoke of Mr. Brown, as a gen
tleman of high political ability, and entitled to
the warm confidence of his friends. Os Col.
Lochrane he said, who has not heard of the
gallant and eloquent gentleman who was before
him? —whose speeches in defence of Demo
cratic men and measures, here and every
where, had won for him the esteem of every
Democrat. As for himself, he regretted his
name was not before the Convention —owing
to his having been recently married —for in
him the Democratic banner wonld have had
a standard bearer able, worthy, and patriotic;
but the choice had fallen on Mr. Speer, and he.
knew that gentleman would have the warm
and cordial support, both of Colonel L. and
Mr. Brown.
On the Major’s resuming his seat, a cry arose
oyer the house for Colonel Lochrane, who,
amid the cheers of the assembly, responded to
the call, in a most eloquent and appropriate
speech. We have often heard Col. Lochrane
on impromptu occasions, and although we
always listen to him with pleasure, yet we
have never heard him when he was more truly
eloquent; and the effect of his speech was to
call out the unanimous cheers and commenda
tions of the Convention. He commenced by
alluding to the fact that he was not a candi
date for nomination, and had, therefore, only
a personal gratification at the result of their
action. He did not desire bis name used V>
divide and distract the harmony ot the Demo
cratic party, as success of principles was dear
er to him than personal elevation; and in the
ranks he was as equally honored as being their
standard-bearer. He thanked those who had
pressed his name for the position, and in de
clining, assured them that, iu becoming a
husband, he had an honor greater than in
being a Congressman—a Freeman’s heart was
to him a gift prouder than the Presidency!
, He alluded to the political condition of the
; country; paid a handsome tribute to the De
! inocracy of the North, their struggles and bat
' tics for Southern interests; said not a spot
was consecrated North of the Potomac, but
J Democratic blood was sprinkled on it, and
patriot hands upheld the Democratic banner;
I la-cause their ranks had been thinned by the
enemy ; because they had fallen by the altar of
the Constitution, in defence ol Southern rights,
. Southern intereat*, and Southern honor, it
was not now the time to desert them; the
darker the cloud* of defeat and despair that
curtained them, the truer ought to be our
devotion, for every field on which they fell
was a Chersonesus fought with heroism and
loet without dishonor; though tl»e clouds were
dark the sepulchre of gloom, and fringed
with fire where Northern Democrats had fell
cu, duty demanded the tribe'* of our aid
honor demanded the loiitelbuliou of our sym
pathy. Me showed bow tbe votes ffif the Op
, pwe-tetei would, Ml e»«xt be the •hvMire «t
the Black Republicans, M the defeat of th*
Democracy would inevitably lead to that re
sult The answer given so flippantly, that the
1 Democracy were just as bad as the Black Re
publicans, was unjust, ungenerous and untrue:
most of the Opposition claimed to be emphati
cally Southern Bights men, and ready to dis
' solve the Union on the elevation of a Black
' Republican to the Presidency, would they, or
dare they now advocate so monstrous a propo
sition before the people, while the Democratic
.flag floated over the fortunes of this Confede
racy ? The honest voters of the country were
too intelligent, and too much devoted to the
! interests of the country, to be carried away
by such pretended absurdities.
The gentleman concluded, after an able
speech, well-timed and interspersed with hu
mor that attracted general admiration; and,
had it been made before the nomination, from
the expression of opinion, the Convention
might have forced the gentleman to quit the
pleasures of the Honey Moon for the political
arena.
After he concluded, Jack Brown, Esq. rose
up and addressed the meeting for some min
utes, in a few appropi iate remarks. He ex
pressed his acquiescence in the result; would
cheerfully support the nominee; thanked his
friends for their confidence and support, and
concluded with an eloquent appeal to all
to rally around the standard-bearer, whom he
highly eulogized.
Colonel Owens then addressed the Conven
tion at some length, and was frequently ap
plauded ; but we were too far from the gentle
man to hear his speech sufficiently to give an
abstract of it.
Take it all together, the meeting was a very
harmonious one, and showed a determined
and invincible spirit among the Democracy to
do or die in the approaching conflict.
Candidates for the Legislature.
We have but few comments to make upon
the two following communications which have
been handed in from different sources. The
gentlemen suggested for the Legislature are
all our particular friends, all good Democrats,
and all eminently fit to be nominated ; but it
is not our intention to use this journal to ad
vance the cause of some, and injure the claims
of other members of the party. As an indi
vidual we reserve the right to speak for our
self, but as a political journalist we shall keep
silent till the people have acted. When they
have spoken, then comes our time to act. This
is the course we have studiously pursued in
tae nomination of a Congressman, and we shall
certainly not abuse our Editorial position by
helping to promote any man over the shoulders
of other Democrats equally deserving. Our
columns, however, are always open to sugges
tions. Let all our best men be brought for
ward, and let the party choose among them.—
Nominate any good candidates, and they will
have whatever he'p we can give them:
(co M M U NIC AT E D.)
Eos. State Press Having consulted many
prominent Democrats in this county as to the
proper men to represent this county, in their
name, I offer the following ticket:
For the Senate,
Col. O. A. LOCHRANE.
For the House,
P. TRACY, Esq.
Capt. J. H. ANDREWS.'
This ticket will rally every Democratic vote,
and the interests of Macon demanding able and
efficient representatives, the well known abil
ity of the gentlemen named would secure the
vote of many citizens who would feel a pride in
seeing Bibb take a prominent position in the
next Legislature.
With these men, victory is certain ; and the
voice of the county be almost unanimous. No
office-seekers, they would have no enmities to
encounter, and clever, generous, noble fellows,
many of the citizens of Bibb all politics would
sympathise with their election.
Why not select the best men to secure the
easiest triumph: and if so, for many Demo
crats. we say let this ticket be nominated.
MANY DEMOCRATS.
[COMMCNICATED.]
Eds. State Press:—l ask the use of your
columns to suggest to the Democratic voters of
this county the following ticket for the Legis
lature :
For the Senate,
JAMES DEAN.
For the House,
P. TRACY,
L. M. LAMAR.
It is the opinion of leading men in the par
ty that the above ticket combines as many ele
ments of strength as any that can be selected.
They are all well known in the party as popu
lar, deserving and influential Democrats ; and
if nominated, they will undoubtedly accept,
and win the race.
It is no use to put up men to be knocked
down like “nine-pins.” We want intelligent,
worthy and able Representatives of the party,
it is true; but we also want men that have
with these requisites the additional one of
availability—men that can “ whip the fight.”
Fellow Democrats'. Nominate the above
named gentlemen, and Bibb County will no
longer be represented by Know Nothings in
the State Legislature. 8188.

Letters Read at the Stephens
DINNER.
The pressure of other matter has prevented
the earlier publication of the followWg letters
from distinguished Georgians, read at the din.
nor recently given in Augusta, to Hon. Alex.
11. Stephens. We make a few selections
from the number published in the Constitu
tionalist :
FROM HON. IL V. JOHNSON.
Spiers Turn Out. Jefferson co. Ga., I
June 2V, 1859. )
Gentlemen—l duly received your note of
the 16th inst., by which you honor me with an
invitation “to attend a dinner to be given on
the 2d day of July, to the Hon. A. H. Stevens,
by a number of his friends and former constit
uents, as a testimonial of their appreciation of
his distinguished services while a member of
Congress.”
I sincerely regret that I cannot acedpt your
invitation. As one of his former constituents,
it would afford me unfeigned pleasure to attest
my “ appreciation of his public ser
vices,” by mingling personally in the convivi
alities of the occasion.
Few men, in the history of our country,
have achieved a career at once so successful
and so brilliant, as that v ' h Mr. Stephens
now voluntarily closes. Not one ever retired
from public life, with more dignity. His fame
is the well earned reward of patriotic toil, ex
alted talents, and uncommon eloquence : his
chosen retreat to private life is the triumph of
personal virtue over the love of place and of
fice, which is characteristic of noble minds.—
Still, we cannot resist the conviction, that his
withdrawal from Congress is a public loss, and
creates a vacuum difficult to be tilled. His
tact as a parlimentarian, his familiarity with
public affairs, his skill as a debater, his bold
ness and zeal, all combine to invest him with
power for usefulness rarely possessed by states
men. lam sure I express the almost univer
sal sentiment, when 1 say. I sincerely regret
his determination to abandon his field of fame
and service.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant
and fellow-citizen, Herschel V. Johnson.
Messrs. IV. M. D’Antignac, T. Clanton, 11. 11.
Cumming, Chas. J. Jenkins, John Bones,
and James Gardner, Committee of Invitation
Augusta, Ga.
FROM HON. E. A. NISBET.
Macon, Ga., June 24, 1859.
■Gentlemen: I am in receipt of your polite
note of 16th inst., inviting mo to attend a din
ner to be given to the Hon. A. IL Stephens,
on the second day of next month, as a testimo
nial of his distinguished services while a mem
ber of Congress. It would gratify me exceed
ingly to be in attendance on that occasion,
mainly, that I might, by my presence, show
my own appreciation of the services of that
distinguished gentleman to the country. I
shall not be able to attend. I have no doubt
you will agree with me that statesmenship of
the highest order, with very few exceptions, is
not now tojbe foupd in the national legisla
ture ; and that, at no time in the past of our
history, has it been more needed than nt the
present moment. What the country wants,
more perhaps than anything else, is calm, con
servative, wise, men in Congress: with repu
tations so commanding as to guide public opin
ion. We have party leaders in abundance :
but in the House of Representatives not one
who may be justly called a National loader.—
It is because these things are so. that I do most
sincerely regret Mr. Stephens’ retirement.—
He had attained to the desired grade of states
manship, and enjoyed the requisite national
ism of reputation. In simple truth, his retire
ment is a public calamity. The House of Rep
resentatives was the field of his triumph.-, and
would be a sphere of his greatest usefulness:
for to my mind, there is to be fought yet the
great battles of the Constitution. Real power is
more difficult of attainment there than on high
er levels. It is the House of the people, and
there they ought to have true exponents of
their virtue and intellieence. Os course, I will
not be understood as disparaging his fitness
for any other position in the public service.—
If, however, his purpose is settled to become
a private citizen, he will carry with him to the
shades of his home, the gratitude and respect
of numerous friends and admirers in every
part of the Union.
Respectfully, Jcc., &c.,
E. A. Nisbet.

FROM HON. HOWELL COBB. '
Washington Citv, June 28, 1859.
Gentlemen: I regret to say that my public
engagements will deprive me of the pleasure '
of attending the proposed dinner to your dis
tinguished Represeutative, Hon. A. 11. Ste
phens. It has been my good fortune to serve
in Congress, as the colleague of Mr. Stephens,
for a period of ten years. During that time,
the most important questions of public policy
have been discussed, and settled. In all of
them, your late Representstive took an active
and influential part—upon most of them, we '
agreed—upon some, we differed : but, in all of
them, his course was marked with ability, pa- ,
triotism, and devotion to his convictions of
right and justice. Few men have retired from
our national legislature with a higher reputa
tion than Mr. Stephens. By a faithful and en
ergetic discharge of duty, he won for himself
the personal confidence of his immediate con
stituency, to an extent rarely, if ever, exceed
ed—whilst his bold anl eloquent advocacy of
the principles and measures he defended, com
manded the respect and admiration of all with
whom he was associated.
Such a Representative is worthy of the tes
timonial you have proposed : and I can only ,
repeat the regret 1 feel in not being able to .
participate, personally, in doing honor to one
to whom honor is due.
I am respectfully yours, Ac.,

have the following items of
GEN ER AL TNTELLIG ENC E.
It is believed in some quarters of Paris that
the loss of the French forces in the battle of
Solferino will reacji 15,500 men besides the
deaths from casualties in the artillery and oth
er corps. The loss is estimated as follows: —
In General Neil’s corps, 6,000 to 7,0(10; Bar
aguay ’de Hillier's corps, 5,000; Marshal Mc-
Mahon’s corps, 2,500 and Marshal Canrobert’s
corps, 1,000 men.
The French people are dissatisfied at the
meagre details of the engagements which have
been furnished.
The Paris Patrie says that Napoleon had an
epaulette shot away.
Some French regiments were nearly cut to
pieces.
The Piedmontese troops suffered so severely
as to be unable to form a line of battle.
A dispatch from Vienna dated the 28th,
says that some days must elapse before com
plete returns can’ be received from the Aus
trian army.
’ The Italian regiments in the Austrian army
have become very unmanageable and were
deserting by scores and fifties.
At Trieste a whole battalion declared in fa

A vessel sailing under the American flag
was detected taking deserters on board.

and sales were unimportant. Wheat had de
clined 2d to 3d. Corn was quiet and all qual- 1
ities had slightly declined. Beef was heavy, i
with little enquiry, and weak prices. Bacon I
was dull, but prices were steady. Lard was
heavy at a slight decline. Sugar reported I
quiet, but closed steady. Coffee unchanged. ,
Rice dull but steady, with unimportant trans |
actions. Spirits of Turpentine closed dull and |
Rice firm.
American'securities were unchanged.
The Burial of my Dog “ Bull!”
Not :i gun was heard, nor a funeral note,
As to his grave in the garden I hurried ;
But ft policeman discharged a deadly shot,
The eve before Bull Wft» buried.
I buried him early in the cloudy morn.
No useless ceremony performing,
For 1 thought as poor Hull was gone
There was no use of that in the morning.
No usdes* coffin enclosed his breast.
But a barrel-head I placed o’er him ;
And 1 thought as ho was taking his rest,
That 1 could hear him enuring.
Few and short Were the prayers I said,
But I spoke volumes of sorrow :
And I made up my mind when I went to bed,
To whip the murderer the morrow.
Slowly and sadly I laid him down.
Straightening his body and leveling bis paw:
But I felt and knew he was gone,
He fell a victim to the Lute.
Lightly they'll talk now pour “ Bull" >8 gone,
And o’er his cold grave upbraid him,
And think they’ll kill Horton — but iu a horn,
For I’ve got him heavy laden.
This Law is just, that I must own,
But yet 1 think it a pity,
To have a dog taken from his country home,
And uiui’ilcred in the city.
[The above pathetic lines are the production of a
young citizen of Macon whose dog f.dl a victim to the
“ Dog Law.’’
Sentence Commuted. —President Buchan
nan has commuted to imprisonment lor life, .
the sentence of death impending over the youth
Cyrus W. Plummer, convicted at Boston of
piracy and murder. The ease has excited !
more interest in Boston and New \ork than
any other one known to the history of mari
time tragedies. Some twenty thousand per
sons, principally immediately connected with ,
maritime affairs, besought the President to
this exercise of his prerogative, by petitions, |
on the ground that the prisoner was far less ,
guilty than others who escaped punishment ,
altogether.
