Emptying- the Jails and Poor Hon.
SE3 INTO FREE AMERICA.
How frequently has the ear of the country
been saluted with the alarming cry from the
opposition camp that the Democracy must be
defeated because they were in favor of empty-
ing the Jails and Poor Houses of Europe and
placing their occupants upon a footing with
the free and native born American.
Our opposition friends, at the last election
in Bibb, however, seem to have taken a step
backwards; for they emptied the suffrage of the
County Jailinto the ballot box on Monday last
The Jailor brought three men who were con

called American Ticket, and then marched

nizing Slavery, and subnit it for ratification
to the resident citizens if the territory, with
proper guards fmd restritions, so as to obtain
a fair expression of the will of the people.—
Just here we must be pemitted to say that the
position and views of thi Democratic party in
Georgia, in regard to tie question of a sub
mission of the Constitutbn, have been misun
derstood and misrepreseited. We have y#t to
learn or hear of the first Democrat who denies
the right of the Convenion—to submit—and
in our opinion, if the Coistitution is submitted
fairly to the citizens qialified to vote, and
there shall be a decision against the South and
the slave interest, while lie regret will be uni
versal that Kansas has hienlost, yet their sense
of justice—their regard or constitutional obli
gations—their love of law and order, will in
duce the people of tht South to acquiesce
gracefully in a judgmeni which is thus shown
to be the will of a majority of the people of
Kanos.
If, on the other hand, the constitution is sub
mitted, recognizing slavery, and the people
shall ratify it—and upon application being
made for admission into the Union as a State,
Kansas shall be refused admission on the
ground of the pro-slavery clause in her Consti
tution-then in the terse but sentient language
of Georgia’s patriotic Governor, “The argu
ment is exhausted, and we must stand by our
arms." Again, we objected to Gov, Walker’s
course, not because he favored the submission,
but because he, as Governor, had no right in
his Executive capacity, to dictate to the Con
vention what they should, or should not do.—
This is a question entirclyand alone for the con
vention to decide. Webelieve that the submis
sion is right. We believe it is sound democratic
doctrine in theory and practice, to give the peo
ple not only of territories, but of States, the op
portunity to pass in review on the action of their
agents, and especially in the formation of a
Constitution. They are to live under, to be
governed by its provisions, and they should
have the power to revise and correct, when in
their judgment errer has been committed, or
wrong done. The people of the South do not
desire to force their peculiar views and institu
tions into any territory—hut knowing that un
der the Constitution they are permitted to car
ry their property of [every kind, to all parts
of the Government domain, they will not be
driven by the senseless clamors of demagogues
and fanatics, from a firm maintenance of their
rights, which they will sustain at all hazards
and to the last extremity.
Bleeding Sumner!
“ I have seen a letter from Mr. Sumner, da
ted Heidlelberg, Sept. 11. He had been in
Switzerland, had visited most of its lakes, and
crossed several of its mountains on muleback,
He has also been in the Pyrenees and the
Channel Island, and was about to visit the
Highlands. Of his health he says: “ I am

The above is taken from the Boston corres-

We have heard it hinted that the caning
which Brooks gave this learned member of
the self-admiration club” was not the only
cause of bis long-continued ill-health. Many
have attributed his general debility to sensu
alism; and residents at Washington, acquaint
ed with the habits of the Massachusetts Sena
tor, have not been slow to account in this way
for his protracted illness. Speaking of Sum
ner, what John Van Buren said of him occurs
to us.
John, in writing to his friend, the Editor of
the Albany Argus, soon after a severe critique
of Sumner’s Speech had appeared in that jour
nal, in which the editor proved conclusively
that Sumner had borrowed the arrangement
and most of the matter from Demosthenes on
the crown, said : “ You have hit Sumner a
harder lick on the crown than Brooks did.”

The numerous failures nml suspensions among

tln5 public to suppose there would be less demand
for Cotton, mid that prices would decline; conse
quently, neither spinners or speculators have
been inclined to purchase at the ruling rates of the
last month; but prices have now declined to a safe
piout, and we have no doubt, but that in a few
days there will be a good demand, with many pur
chase rs, and plenty of money in the Market for all
Cotton operations. And while we do not wish to
advise Planters as to their own business, we will
only say, that if wo had Cotton, we should sell ear

Banks.
The suspension of the Bank of the State of
South Carolina, ought to create no surprise
or excitement, or do any injury to the credit
of other institutions, as it is an old State con
cern, like our former Central Bank, iu which all
politicians had a finger, in getting long loans,
and it had but little to do with the active
commercial business of the State. It is said
that its suspension will be of service rather
than injury to the people of the State.
As to the Banks of Georgia, we see no rea
son for the least suspicion; we believe they are
as good condition as they have been for ten
cars.
