For the want of time, this week’s is sue must fall far short of wbat we ez pcct to place before our readers in the future progress of our paper. Owing to the late hour in which we came in charge of the press, and other minor ij convenknces attending thereto, it will be impossible for at to give as much reading matter as we would like to, and could, UDder more favorable circumstan ces. It is our intention to make the Journal one among tbe many interest ing papers cf the South, and since we cannot hope to eclipse those that are operating under better advantages, yet we will come as near the ideal of per fection as our abilities will allow, and try to grow stronger as we advance. Valedictory. Tbe Dawson Journal has passed from the undersigned into tbe hands of Messrs. Christian, Hotl & Cos. With this issue of the Journal, my connec tion with the paper ceases. 1 have been connected with it only two months and m half; during that period, I have been battling for the cause of democracy, whether successfully or not, is left for the patrons of tbe paper to decide.— Like all editors, I have had my ops and downs, financially, as well as politically. Have bad many difficulties to contend with, but by the aid of a generous pub lic, I have been enabled to keep the old “*hip” under good headway, until very recently, when a heavy “shell” of old papers fell on it, and crushed it for a time beneath the waves of adversity; but having these impedimenta removed, she has emerged into active business again. Thinking that two newspapers are more than one man should attempt to control, I therefore transfeitbe Jour nal and its editorial pen into hands more suited to its progress, believing that the publio will suffer no loss by the change. Tbe advertisements now in the paper will be continued by tbe present pro prietors, until tbe time for which they were inserted will have expired, pay ment for the same will be made to me. The subscription book has been turned over to the new proprietor!, who are authorized to collect for their own use the amounts due thereon. In dissolving my connection with the Journal, I desire to return thanks to its patrons far the encouragement given us while it was our pleasure to conduct its columns. In retiring, I am pleased to bespeak for our successors, the favor able consideration of a generous and lib eral public. M. TUCKER. Salutatory. In assuming control of the Dawson Journal, we beg leave to saj to its pa trons, that onr object shall be to make it a paper worthy of their continued support. For the last few months, it has changed hands eo often, that we preler to present it to the public without any prognostication as to the length of time likely to pert'odize oar eonnection with it. It is the purpose, however, of the present proprietors, to conduct it with as much interest to the public and them selves as they may be able, which allows the indulgence of some hope, that in falling into our bands, it baa been with drawn from the marl, at least, until the wiry-edge of our energies shall have well worn under the toila of an unac customed office. We are not wholly inseasible of the exertion necessary upon our part, that we may present you with an acceptable paner, even one day in the week. W e therefore desire, in thus unexpectedly introducing curselves to a geoerous pub lic at the proprietors of a weekly jour nal, to be underetood as distrustful of onr ability to discharge the duties as sumed, with satisfaction to an enlight ened community, and must ask of those who are pleased to p< ruse our column*, to remember that we are just entering (he editorial arena. The course we shall pursue has been mapped out by oar illustrious predeces sors. The Journal is still ornamented with SEYMOUR and BLAIR at its mast head, as our candidates for the Presi dency. The result of the late elections in some of tbe Slates of the Union has wrought no revolution in our feelings as to the duty of every Southern man, white or colored, in the pending, impor tant, national contest. Let the fiual result be as it may, it is nevertheless oar right, our duty, and to our interest, to support en matte, the standard bearers of that party, to which we can alone look for pros; erity and quietude in the future. Let us tben in our section of the gallant old Empire State of tbe South, send up a vote fully attesting our fidelity to tbe principles enunciated in the {latform of the great Democratic party; a local tiiumpb, should wo be so ULfortunatc as to meet with a national defeat, would still lend a salutary influence in our community With this enuncio of our political status, we must for tbe proseut be con tent, and conclude this article by soliti tiDg a continuation of the liberal patron age beietofcre extended to the Dawson Journal. Tbe editorial department will bo con ducted under tbe supervision of out young friend, Robert G. Ozier, E q.. anew comer in our midst, whom wr take pleasure in introducing with our selves, to the patrons of the Journal. Located as we are, in a prosperous, enterprising young city, surrounded wi b a liberal community, we arc induced to hope that circumstances will favor the prosperity of our paper, and that our coDnectioQ a with it will be of interest to you as well as ourselves. Survivorship. If we are correctly informed, the Dawson Journal has repeatedly changed Proprietors during the present year. It is to be hoped such a thing will not occur again within the period of another year at least. Under tbe present Proprietorship, we hope to show our patrons that the Journal cau be made a reliable paper. Let an enterprising public see to it; that their local paper be es tablished, by lending a liberal aid in subscrip tion and advertising. Then, notwith s auding tbe coming election should result in tbe defeat of tbe Candidates of yrur choice, the same invigorating element will permeate throughout your section, and the life of trade will flourish. It is as true, in regard to coin ing events, as revelation itself, in case that time continues; the same sun will shine upuu our world, Mother Earth will perform her same productive stamina, aud yield ber fruits in due season, Old Ocean will preserve the same defiance in tbe flowing of her tide with Grant in tbe Presidential chair, as was maintained under the administration of his predecessors. If there is a reason for Democ racy to despond, which we are inclined to ibiuic premature, it is certainly do cause for a general collapse on our part. Our policy must be to live, though we be dead in a polit ical sense. A just God presides over the destiny of nations, in him let our trust repose. We have the natural gifts of heaven to lavor as in the discharge of our duties whereby a livelihood cau yet be obtained, and if fate should decree against us, let us Dot give over io despair. Let us be earnest in our resolu tions in exercising an effort to live, though taxation may be oppressive. Live ibou! amid all such conflicting circumstances, and while you are living sustain your local paper, oth erwise the Devil, Printers, and Editor must want for the essentials of life. Tux proprietors ct the Journal not i expecting the Editor to make his debut this week, band in at a late hour, a man uscript for publication, which goes to press under the bead of salutatory, a caption given it by onrsdves, to distin guish it from au editorial styled survi vorship already in type. We take charge of the paper this week with a number of attachees, proprietors and maoagers, hanging around loose, no one seeming to have any well defioed duty assigned, and all apparently waiting to learn from the first number wbat will be expeeted at bis bands in the future. With a Book-Keeper, Treasurer and a large iron-cased safe, we think our squad would be complete. This week we just have to receive money indiscriminately, and pack it away in one corner of the room until we can do better, but by next week we hope to have all these requi sites, so our customers may feel assured when they hand us money that we can take better care of it than we are doing DOW. Thb Alfred Butler Case —A ver diet of guilty was returned by the jury, on Friday morn'Dg last, in the above case and the defendant was sentenced to be hanged on the 11th day of Doce tu ber next between the hours ol ten a. m. and two p. m. The prisoner still assert* bis inno cense, but hie declarations seem to have but little effect upon the minds of those who heard the evidence. The testimo ny was entirely circumstantial, but was sufficient to satisfy all parties of the guilt of the prisoner.— Griffin Herald. What Does it mean ? When the Democrats about Atlanta meet each other of la e, they whisper, “Whoa—J-a-o u t r-y.” Will some body tell us what it means ? Wonder if it has reference to the Northern aLd Western elections? Well, we rather expect it do.— New Era. You are wrong Bam. They see so many Radical M-u-l-e-s. From the Atlanta Curs i u ion. The World Commotion. Revolutions seem to be tlx? order of tbe day. The nations are locking to und fro as if some tnigh y earthquake had shaken them to the base Spain is in the throes of a convulsion which threatens tu upset the dynasty of years. The Bourbon throne is crumb ling benea'h the first glunue of a newly risen Republican sun; and tbe Queen is forced to refuge in a foreign land.— The power of tbe insurgents is organ ized into a formidable array against the lusts of royalty. The people want n change Bore ridden by an oppres sive monarchy, they cry for deliver ance. But their necks have eo long been fashioned to the yoke, the yoke. to their necks, that we question their fitness for any other form. General I‘rim at the head of the re volt, is an old army officer in Spain.— His name is prominently connected with the various revolutionary move men's in that country for the past 30 years. His rallying cry has never failed io etir the lovers of freedom and their fatherland against thecrml in justice of lire reigning power. Lspsr. tero, another prominent insurgent ac tor, is also famed for his services in be half of the Government In the effort to quell the revolt of the Spanish South American Provinces, he met with dis aster at the handeof Bolivar, by whom heir independence was achieved. To day he is more emphatic in his oj posi t on to the Government of Spain, than he was then in its defense. The move ment is a deep seated one, and under the lead of such men, it promises the overthrow of prevailing dynamics. The whole coumry ie iu a state of seige, with the insurgents moving upon the cayital. The throne of Isabella is des tined to fall in the Iray, and wo shall see w hether or no a more despotic one is erected iu its stead. In France like wise the muttering* of discontent is heard on every side. Another Bour bon throne presses heavily upon the rights and liberties of the people The cox populi is heard in a threatening tone. Its meaning is scarcely to be misunderstood. Louis Napoleon re fuses to aid the Queen of Spain, be cause he knows that all the powers of his Government may at any moment be required at home, und that the pop ular uprising is but the echo to the lie publican voice of France. In South I America the red hot waves of Revolu tion are beating and dashing to and ; Iro between Brazil and Paraguay.— From Mexico, we have advices of a fresh outbreak against tbe Govern ment. In Italy a like disaflect on is silently iuvoking the spirit of Revolu tion. The spirit of disc- ntent is fear fully abroad. The line of the poet, “Uneasy rests ibe head that wears a crown" is verified in ilis popular commotions with which all Europe seems to be shaken at this lime But we have as little assurance of permanent Republi canism in Europe as we would huveol a monaiehy or a despotism in this country, should the madness and folly of our people rush on to 6uch a change Id the face of past history, and tradi tions pointing remotely back to mon archical systems, there is little hope of Republican government in Europe.— The same reasons end arguments against it there, apply with equal force in lavor of its cortinued existence here. In the United States we have a rev olution within a revolution. In every section of the country the people are treacirig above volcanoes, which at any moment threatens to envelop* the land in a su'phurouo luma. Here the rev olutions which should have ended with Lee’s surrender still goes on. It would seem that the Republican spirit in which our own government was founded, and with which in 1798, all France was enthused, had been grad ually stealing away from us, and infu sing its mr.ro liberal principles into the mnnurchic.il systems of Europe. Hav ing for a time deserted our shores it has gone a coqueting wiih the old maids of monarchy in other lands, — We believe it will return in due time, full of disgust, to its first love At piresent, scarcely enoutu of it remams to check our sideling disposition to udopt the very systems which they are atrugg ing to cast off. The whole world is in commotion. We need not In surprised at what a day may bring forth. The Tribune stvs that Gen. Gordon, of Georgia, “fought these ‘Radical.-,’ gal lantly, desperately, through a four year’s struggle—he seeking avowedly, to get rid of the Constitution and dissolve the Unko.’* False. There never was a moment throughout the whole struggle, ihat he and his associates would not have adhered to the Union if they con'd have bad the Constitution. But “these Radicals” have been in rebellion against the Constitution for thirty years, and it was because <hat rebellion became suc cessful, an-1 the South could do longer have the protection of the Constitution, that she treated the Union as dissolved, and in fact it was, and is to this day, as there can be no Union witbuat the Con stitution. 80 Gen. Gordon was right, and the Tribune wrong. —La Crou Dcm.

The folio wing correspondence is im portent, as it practically illustrates the views )t thinking und enterprising mer chants, and those who have not alto gether lost their love of country or Constitution as handed down by our forefathers, or who have a respe-1 fur maintaining its honor und character: 594 Broadway, N Y.Oet. 14 To George VV ashington Langley. Esq , firm ol Lnrgley Hiiuturlee, Black well & Co s, 3753 Broadway. New York: Dear Sir: When Horatio Seymour was by acelnmuiion nominated for President of die United Btstes by the Dcmoct at e f arty 1 it was conceded by all parties that he was a good states man and sound defender of our t on dilution, hut since hit nomination I have noticed many slanderous remarks in regard to his conduct during the war. Happily, H> n. A. G Curtin,ex- Governor of Pennsylvania, bus ex pressed himself iu a mo t friend y manner, remark'ug that '.he least said against ■Seymour’s conduct rimi.lg the rebellion the besi for the Republican party, as he would acquit him of such abuse. Now ns to F. P Blair, I have ob serve 1 iu several Republican papers statemen ? that he had no claims what ever upon the Dcm cratic puity, and to th s l would 6ay why Dot ? Was it be ause he 1 ught in the army and for the restoration of the Union ? He was nominated at Tammany Hall with shouts of applause, just after proclaim ing that w o must have a President un trammelled by an uneonstiiutional, op press ve and arbitrary Congress. Sineo the close of ihe lebellioo 1 have care fully noticed the expression of South ern journuis, pclitici ms, aud merchan s and find that all are dedrous of living in harmony, and expect that the elec tion of Seymour and Blair will be the means of encouragement and the ex tension of the right hand of fellowship, thereby evidencing a complete vindica tion of the object of the war and oftne Constitution, aud restoring the rights of an impoverished and oopressjd por tion of’our country. Before concluding, I will address tnysell to ttie young and enterprising merchants ami laboring classes. In the various city papers of lecent date, I have noticed a correspondence be* tween Judge E. Pierrepout and A. T Btewavt, the substance of which was that they both desired the election cf U. S Grant for President, Judge Pi rrepont tendering a i h. ck for S2O, OUO for furthering his election. Now to the sensible reader an; to th-- young merchant, is not this in iieelf perfeejy explanatory of their interests, and is it not opposed to their develo- ment. Do they expect to be bent-fifed ? li is not for purely mercenary motives ? The contest presents a we 1 defined issue between the bondholders and the en terprising and laboring classes, and re solves itse f in o an oppression. Green backs for one and gold lor the other In this correspondence 1 w uid not wish to assert any hing against the payment of the debt, but tbe interest is exhorbi'ant—it canm t be paid, ex cepting in the same currency chased, and when this is once done capital seeks tuber investments of a more Imitative character, thereby pro ducing a nvenuj, and gradually ap proaching a gold basis. In conclusion, permit ne to tender my check for §4O 000, to he used in such manner as you may think most udvi-abie for ttie furtherance of my views. True to our friends ai:d k : ni] to the weak, is the Democratic doctrine ud voceted by Truly yours, H. T. Ue^mcold. * REPLY. 11.

John Quincy Adams—A Pen and Ink Sketch.—Owing to the indis position of Mr. Adams during bis abort stay in Columbia, be was compellel to remain so completely retired from public view, that a pen and ink sketch of bis personal appearance may not be unac ceptable to our readers His appearance at the first glance is not prepossessing. He is short aud square shouldered, wear? tight panta loons and a short eoat, his hair is brown and very short, and bis complexiou is fl >rid. He wears no beard, whiskers nor moustache, and the constant use of eye glasses gives him the appearance of affectation. His dress, however, is re markably neat- and clean, without the least ostentation, and his manner is that of a well-bred gentleman A single opportunity of hearing in public, or fif teen minutes’ conversation on mattors of public io:crest t is enough to convince any one that he is not only a well in formed man and deep thinker, but clear beaded and eool, with complete command over him-clf, and a ready apprec-icticn of any situation, however enexpeeted Uharltton Newt, Htft.
