():i Monday week the freemen of Georgia will b, called to the ballot box, and much depends up on t!ie decision which they will that day make.— The work of that day is to decide whether Geor ni will kneel and knucle to the will of Martin Van Buren, or whether she will throw off the shackles with which he has attempted to hind her and announce to the world that she is tree and in ti'j pendent. Too long has Federal encroachments been sanctioned by tiie people of Georgia—too long has corruption been countenanced by the freemen oi our State—:t is now high time that they speak with a voice not to be misunderstood. Let them -ie;kas one man in the Congress of the United Mule*— tend the gentlemen composing the State Rights* ti-. ket to Washington, and all the manoeu v,vs a;„J machinations of the Prince of Kimler h,iu,. md Ids minions, will be watched with argits e ;! r <p> -ed in their true and dangerous char- Reta voice go forth from the Georgia L*' ! :»latnre, .that will strike dismay to ; u*' tt :>s a. our rulers, anile m their onward course o! cor rnption sod extravagance. In order that this be accomplished, it is abso lutely necessary t hat •very man who desires such a hnppv result, should be at the polls. Let no intervening cause keep any away —let no mati gue "mi/ vote can be of but little Service,” —not so—One vote is of vast importance —it may de cide the content. Let then, every one who w ish es so happy a consummation, be at their posts. Let the world understand that the people of Geor gia know their rights; that they will countenance no man wliowould disregard these rights so Ur as to palm the Cherokee Indians two years longer upon them. And the way to accomplish this is to vote for no man, either for Congress or the Leg islature who would countenance A an Buren s Administration., Our opponents, (the friends ot Van Buren,) are ever oil the alert, aud all the exertions necessary to carry out their plans will be put in requisition, and it will require the most unceasing vigilance on our part to defeat them. Bestir yourselves then, ye opponents of corruption, and all may yet be "ell. Freemen, awake. The Augusta Constitutionalist grumbles be cause the .State Rights papers do not impose up or. their readers the task of reading the labored replies of the Van Rnrea candidates for Congress, to certain inquiries .which: have been propounded to them in relation to the Sub Treasury, a United •States'’ Bank and th** riant Presidency. So desirous are the gentlemen composing the Vitu Buren ticket, of bringing tliemseives into notice, and of making a big show in the papers, that they seize with avidity every pretext calcula ted to accomplish that •bjeet. and were we to de vote ou r columns to the publication o| t k e ' r and wearisome Incubations, they would be filled *ith nothing else, to the exclusion of other and more interesting matter, with which our readers are generally better pleased. We conceive we will have discharged oui duty to the public, when wc inform them that the V an Buren candidates announce their determination of supporting their idol, the Prince of Kinderhook, through thick and thin, notwithstanding his per fidy and faithlessness towards the South, and par ticularly our own Georgia. They adopt with ea gerness all his doctrines and opinions, and give countenance to all his actings and doings. Not one word of censure escapes from them as to Ins Past conduct, but he seems to be all aud all with (hem; to whose decrees they would conceive it an honor to submit, and whose commands they would, without doubt implicitly obey. 1 he State Rights candidates, though divided oa the Sub-Treasury question, apd a U. States’ Bank, (asthey ever have been,) nevertheless pre sent an undivided phalanx in defence of the Rights of the States, and iixoppositiuu to the corruption and misrule of the “littie magician” and his un derstrapper--. Disdaining to bend a cringing knee at the foot -tool of power, they would stand out boldly Hi defence of the constitution and the lib erties of tiie country, and lie that would attempt to trample either beneath his feet, would hear a voice from the Representatives of Georgia which would cause him to quake and tremble.' It i-» now for the people to determine who shall sei ve them in the Congress of the United States : those who are bound hand and toot to the car of Martin Van Buren,and whose “will is their plea sure:” and who would follow, we have no doubt, “in the footsteps of their illustrious predecessors, in voting for the reception of Abolition petitions, insulting to the South, and inflammatory in their tendency. Or those who have ever stood out iti opposition to the wild and mischievous machina tions of Martin Van Buren, and who would use all their iulluence'to have the incendiary petitions of the Abolitionists kicked out of doors. Good and evil are now placed before the people, and they have the power to choose—may they choose wisely, The Van Buren party in this State are bending all their energies to divide and distract the State R ights party with the expectation of gaining that ascendancy which it was so apparent they had lost. The Sub-Treasury is the hobby upon which they ride, and every State Rights man who con curs with them on this question, lias the right hand of fellowship extended to him with as much cordiality as though he had renounced all his for mer principles, against which they have so faith, fully and zealously contended. This is done with the expectation of winning over to tlieir cause ail thp State Rights Sub Treasury men in Georgia, believing every one to be actuated' from the same motives which seen) to influence the Editor ol tlia People's Press,---the desire to be on the strong side and suck of Government pap, But in this they will he,mistaken, Sub-Treasury men they may be, but so be connected with the IJuion Dem ocractic Republican Jackson Van Buren Dick Johnson Benton Sub-Treasury party of Georgia they never will—-they never can. We perceive a party has been organized in Bibb county, under the cognomen of the “Sub-Trea sury party,” and have nominated a ticket for the Legislature, in which nomination there is a mix ture of good and evil—only one third, however, can be recognized as good. Among the names mentioned in the proceedings as beiugjarpsent we nerceive that of but one State Rights man, —won- der if lie has allied himself with the enemy ? The ticket nominated is as follows: for the Sen ate, C. J. Mi Donald; for the House, E. D. Tra cky and 11. G. Lamar. A strange composition trulv, as the gentleman nominated fer the Senate has iong been an avowed advocate of the U. S. lJ?ak. and we doubt not would still give that in stitution the preference; Mr. Tracey may be all that then" hearts can'desire, but for Mr. Lamar he is a strong »b!e of S,ate Ri S ht *’ a thorough opponent to Van Buren and his party a consistent Nullificr, and has been abused ;<Vid censured by the Asn Hurt 11 P ut - V in ’^‘ s State; but all this it se*tn? they bar*' entiiely f»i gotten. and now nominate him forth* ..■** -'"J ’’.e. They may be enabled by such a st p*" some men to join their ranks from the f"*>d but when thev make choice ol H. G. Lamar with that object iu view they will be badly worsted.— Mr. Lamar was already a candidate, an 1 no doubt would have been easily eleeted without their help. AA'e are glad, however, they intend to give him their support, for we knoy he cannot be bought hy any favors they have to bestow. AVe wonder if. after he is •looted, they will set him down as one of their men ? The State Rights party .of Bibb have nomina ted, for the Senate, l)r. A. Baber: and f6r a. e House, 11. G. Lamar and Tyos. A. Brown. \Ve look forward with great anxiety to the elec tion, with the full expectation that this ticket will come-off more than victorious. FOR THK GEORGIA MIRROR. : “YOU ARK NOT WORTH A lIIOLbAND DOLLARS!” Editors— Permit me again to occupy a ’ space m your paper for the purpose of addressing j a few woilsto the poor men of Stewart county, | who may not be “worth a thousand do,tors. —■ Tie* expression quoted above, fell from the bps of J the candidate who is now before the people of this ; county for the Senate, whose conduct 1 have be fore hid occasion to notice. On hearing the re mark. and considering the circumstances um ti which it was made, I was very forcibly struck with the aristocratic bearing which it presented. Ihe circumstances are these : This very wealthy can didate (of course worth more than “a lhous ™£ dollars!") grossly insulted a gentleman of this county on the cairp ground, regardless ot t lie sanctity of the place, or the rights ot those who were there assembled for the purpose of worship h,® God. The gentleman upon whom the attack was made, having more respect foi himself and th l place than to demand immediate satisfaction, in formed the bully that he would settle the matter on some other day. and at a more appropnate place—the time and place were designated. The day arrived, and his lordship appeared at Lumpkin, (the place specified,) securely armed, his weapons ! visible—ahd actually refused to rtt- *7 tion, one way or another, stating riiat he shoal. ; act entirely on the kf-nnee. aud giving as his re a son that the gentleman, (upon whose chamum ; ,here is not a blot,) was "not worth a thousand dol ‘ lars r THE GEORGIA MIRROR. P.,or men of Stewart, what think you of a • mtr who considers tunnel! so much above bis feiiuw man, who “is as gcod by nature,” and (when it is necessary to defend the country and protect the innocent and helpless,) far- better by practii e, be cause he may not be “i earth a thousand dollars!" 1 have heard" of aristocracy exi-ting in our laud, but it was al« .ys found el.ulkm" about, endeavor ing to hide it- deformed head from the withering g.tze oi a free and republican people, who net up on the principle that “all men are created equal.” but never have 1 mown it to make itself so con spicuous betore, -specially in the'character of a man who is seeking the suffrages of poor men, who are not “ worth a thousand dollars Take this man, however, ns yon will, and he has a- little claim upon the people for their suffrages a any one I have ever l earn of. Take the ex pre s,ou which he ins made as a reason for not gi' m. a gentleman satisfaction for an insult wan tonly ami unprovokingly made, that “ you are not icorln a thousand dollars in connection with the barefaced expression, “</ you put down Dr. Catch iifgs you put down the Union party, fc.” and he is portrayed in a character which B revolting to every poor man and every Republican rich or poor.— Those two expressions savor more of aristocracy and egotism than any of which ( have ever read. You, who are opposed to aristocracy, can you swallow such a pill? View him again in the private walks of life, con tinually rail ing and creating broils and disturban ces in the community, and then shrinking from re sponsibility behind his wealth and self-imp ortance, and iie becomes disgusting in the extreme. Lov ers of peace can you stomach such a dose 1 Consider him as a physician, refusing his aid to suffering soldiers who bravely and nudauntingly stood forth in their country’s defence, instead of li sfat/ing &t home to make corn,” and every man who has a heart to feel should lotlie and abhor such conduct. Friends of humanity can you endure such a man ? Observe him, when his country is invaded by a savage enemy, and tlm cries of the helpless female aud innocent babe peal upon Ins ears, calling for help, and their blood crying aloud for vengeance, refusing *o go to their rescue, and endeavoring to induce others to ‘follow in his footsteps,' atjd what man is there that would not shudder at such con duct ? Patriots, can you countenance such a man ! Consider hitr> as a candidate, on a Methodist encampment, emitting about, with a cudgel in his hand large enough to kill an ox, cursing and ti min ing every body who would dare speak of him in his true character —trampling on the rights of Christians, not only by thus acting, but by elec tioneering all over the encampment, diverting the minds of tiie people from the object of their as sembling, and he appears in a ligtit the most dis gusting of which it is possible to conceive.—- Christians, can you sanction such conduct at the ballot box ? Lump him then all in all, without one redeem ing quality, and it does seem to me he is the last mutt in the world, that should be run for any of fice, or expect to receive the suffrages of a tree, republican and Christian people. PAN HANDLE. FOR THE UEORGIA MIRROR. Messrs Editors —Until the present moment, 1 had resolved in my tnind to remain n quiet and silent spectator during the canvass which is now carried on between the two political parties of Stewart county. AVhen 1 so determined, sirs, I did not anticipate the causes which now induce me to mingle in political strife. The reasons for re voking mv first resolution I will endeavor, thro’ the medium of your paper, briefly to make known. I had rea on to presume that the selection of can didates to repro cut the comity in the next Legis lature of the State, had been made of men, who, if not as talented as could have been desired, that their conduct and actions should have been, at least, free from suspicion, and above reproach. It, however, the assertions of one ot your correspon dents are to be credited, the candidate for the Sen ate of the Union party stands charged and virtu ally convicted, of a course of conduct which the people of the county cannot easily forgive, and for which, if uuimluenced by party prejudice, they will not. in justice lo themselves, easily forget at the ballot box. 1 allude, sirs, to the vet uncon traflicted allegations rv >d* against one of the can didates, i ■ fiie several la-t numhn t of ytur paper by your corre mulr-nt “Pan Ilanule \ voufe--is to yon sin, that I.m always loth to , * -; i0 if: « reliance on the bare sayings of an 1' a< * ' v _: vvt*t< through a public press; there anony •- ■ invariable rifle never to pro lore 1 rV'V\ c * * . p of condemnation upon any man made up between th> :>ar un 1 ‘ 1 s ‘ v ■ •, , n pave been readily-done „es.

Under this view of the sub ject, therefore, 1 conceive that in opening your columns for a free diseuscsion, you have shown to the people tlia. their rights and interests shall not suffer for a tnetyis through which they may arrive at light and 'rah.
