It is said that Gov. Walker violatod tho doctnne of non intervention in advising tho submission of of tbo Constitution to tho people. In my judgment, liis advice was right—liis threat was wrong and high ly reprehensible. If however his edvioe and throat was a violation of non-intervention, what is to be done with our Democratic and American, friends in the last Congress, who passed nn act requiring a sub- fission to the peoplo in the .Minnesota bill f If tho advice of Walker was an executive and official vio lation of non-intervention, then tho Minnesota bill, commanding tho same tiling to bo done, >v.is not on ly an executive and ofiicUL hut also l pith tire vio lation of non-intervention.

BIBB From the Atlanta Intelligencer. Brown’s Retort on Hill—“Ben 11:11 THE FAST MAN”! One of the happiest hits in tire able speech of Judge Brown at Ncwnan was his reply to Mr. Iliil's charge that Buchanan was too slow a President for him. The charge and the re ply arc accurate indications of the character of the two men, the ono rash, reckless end impet uous in his statements and conduct—the other grave, dignified, and deiibratc in everything. Judge Brown impresses you with the solidity of his his mind and character. Mr. Hill with his smartness, his light manner and his in considerate remarks. On tho occasion referred to. Judge Brown in his opening speech liad commented npon the great responsibility connected with all high official positions and especially that of the Ruler of so vast a country as ours, and liow necessary it was for tho President to be fully informed of all the facts in every case where liclrnd to exercise his power—it was necessary for a government sever to act with baste. Mr. Hill in replying to this remark of Judge Brown said he believed iu 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 Governor. Judge Brown retorted “It was true, that he was not a fast man. Mr. Hill was correct in his opinion of him. lie, Mr. Hill was evident ly from bis speech a Fast young .Man and if he were elected Governor he would doubtless make a Fast Governor! and if the people want ed such a Governor they had better cast their votes for Hill. If the people should honor him with the high position for which Jus party had demanded bis services lie expected to be a slow Governor. He never expected to act in haste and repent at leisure—be would surround him self 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 wauted t fast man, they would not find what they de sired, in him.” The applause of the auditory was immense, at this telling retort, and when he spoke of Hill as The Fast Candidate the hit was re sponded to with thundering cheers. From the Atlanta American. Bank of Fulton. While wc believe, as a general rule, that newspaper controversy, political or financial is productive of little or no good, yet an article in the Chronicle and Sentinel of the 15th inst, stated by the editor to he “ from a reliable source,” reflecting, as it docs, severely upon the credit of an institution which we represent as Directors as well as on our private charac ter as honest men, demands from us some notice. We have been connected with the Bank, as Directors, from its organization to the present, and are familiar with all its operations, as well as resources and liabilities, and have no hesita tion in pronouncing the letter referred to as a base falsehood and a libel on the Bank; that it was conceived iu malice, and published to grat ify the malevolent spleen of some dissappoint ed applicant, who had failed to make a tool of the Bank for his own purposes, and instead of being reliable, as the Chronicle would have its readers believe, is wholly unworthy of credit or confidence. The Bank is do Wild Cat. Its very small circulation is confined at home, and has ex tended its entire accommodation to the busi ness men of our community, affording all the facilities our limited capital wonld admit to advance the interests of this section of the State; and we believe we have the right to loan or refuse money as we please, without being subjected to an attack through tho press. It is idle to talk of such men as Whitaker, Thompson, Hayden, W. M. &J. E. Williams being made tools of by any body. Where they are known, their reputation is a sufficcnt guar antee against any 6uch imputation. They are actual stockholders with stock paid in, in com pliance with the Charter which defines clearly their liabilities. The knowing correspondent of the Chronicle & Sentinel had also discovered that a certain Gregory had come from some place with full power to “close the Bank.” Wc know that the Editor of tho Chronicle swallowed the Walioo Bank,” aud the Volcano in upper Georgin, hut did not think, he could he suf ficiently imposed upon to he made to believe the above assertion. Where did he get his power ?

No! it is false. Wc arc able to take care of the interests of the institution wc represent as Directors, and shall do it. Neither Bill- holders, Stockholders, or other creditors of the Bank, shall suffer loss. We are strong and defy attacks of disappointed borrowers, or hoaxed editors. A. W. STONE, A. AUSTELL, WM.

The Washington “States” in contradict ing the rumor that the wall of the rotunda of tho Capitol had been found insufficient to sup port the new dome, is enabled to state, upon the best authority, that there is no truth what ever in the rumor. It has authority of Mr, Walter, the architect, for saying that no change has taken place in his own judgment, nor in that of Captain Meigs, in relation to this sub ject ; and that no practical demonstration has been made from which any new conclusions are warranted. It also states the important fact, that the weight of the new dome of the Capitol will be less than that of the old. Rates of Interest in Jlinncsota and ELSEWHERE.
