squatter sovereignty nor alien suffrage in
the Kansas Bill, what other objections had
his opponents to it ? He had heard of none.
And yet tho Convention which nominated
Mr. Hill, had taken back nil which the A-
merrean Party had eaid in 1855, and Instead
of saying, os they then said that opposition
to the principles of the bill was hostility
to the constitutional rights of the South,
they now say in their platform of 8th July
1S57, that these same principles are dnnge
rous and anti-Southern doctrines. The Hill
American party of 1857 therefore occupied
precisely the opposite position to that occu
pied on this question by the American party
of 1855. It was not therefore the same party
and no membsr of the American party of
1855 owed any party allegiance to the so-
called American party of 1857. They were
two distinct organizations—that of 1855 en-
Then how j dorsed the Kansas Bill; that of1857 denounc
ed the same bill. But the Milledgeville plat
form of 1857 says, that the American party
have again and again warned the country a-
gainst these dangerous anti-Southern doc
trines, (the principles of the Kansas bill.)
When did they first warn the country a-
gainst these principles ? When Mr. Fillmore
returned from his visit to the Pope and
made his Rochester speech, he denounced
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise act
as the Pandora's Box, &c. It was the Ne
braska Kansas act which repealed the Mis
souri Compromise act. When therefore Mr.
Fillmore denounced the repeal of tbe Mis
souri Compromise act he in the same breath
denounced the Nebraska Kansas act which
Judge Brown said he did not yet despair
of Kansas; that oar Southern friends there
still said it would be a slave State. That
the Convention was a pro-slavery Conven
tion, and would in all probability, form a
pro-slavery Constitution. If so, then the
important question was would Congress ad
mit her ? If she did not, Georgia had sworn
in solemn Convention (the Un.on men them
selves controlling the Convention) that she
would disrupt every tie that bound ber to
the Union. Then, if Congress refused to ad
mit Kansas, Georgia was obliged to go out
of tbe Union, or to cover herself with the

to build tbe Road—they Lave invested s
large amount of money in it; arid, in iny’
judgement, that amount should not be fool

eaid that it has cost ns, in roand numbers',
some six millions of dollars. This is a large’

never consent to see ber disgraced. How
then, said be, can we avoid either shame
and disgrace on the one hand, or disunion
on the other ? Only by admitting Kansas
with her pro-slavery Constitution if she ap

dered, or its security as a permanent fund
endangered, for the advancement of the for

they admit Kansas and save tbe Union, or
save Georgia from disgrace ? But said he,
the Democracy have the power to admit her.
They have fifty one true men elected from
the North, pledged to carry out the princi
ples of the Kansas bill and admit her with,
or without, slavery as she may apply ; and
with these men the Democracy have a clear
majority in the next Congress. They can
admit Kansas and save both the Union, and
Georgia from disgrnce. lie then appealed
to the audience as patriots to come up and
stand by the party that haB the power and
the will lo save the country. The issue, he
said, was between the Democracy and the
Black Republicans. Both parties would have
power in the next Congrees, and in the next
Presidential campaign. Tbe American party
demoralized, and denationalized, would be
powerless. He therefore appealed to every
patriot in the South to come up as one man
and stand united by the party, tbe only par
ty, that has tho power to save’ the country
from Black Republican rale.
The above is tbe substance of tbe most
important positions occupied by Judge
Brown. I do not pretend that I have doue
him justice in this report, or that I may be
precisely correct in every particular. The
speech, near three hours in length, was lis
tened to with the most marked attention and
respect, by all parties, and all pronounced
it a most able and convicting argument.
Judge Brown will carry a most overwhel
ming majority in Cherokee County, and in
the Cherokee Country. The people here are
proud of him, and proud of the honor con
ferred upon him. CHEROKEE.
Leg s a’ioj, every Georgian who now looks
upon the Road as being Worth five or six
mil ions of dollars, must have deeply regret-
lel our imprudence.
This shows the importance of calnydis
passionate action, in matters involving such
immense interests.
2ud. If the Road is sold, the jieoplc of
Georgia should have the preference in the
purchase of the Stock. Books should be
opened in every county in the Slate, on the'
same day, giving every citizen who dttires 1
it, an opportuniry to take Stock, and deny
ing to any Capitalists the right to take more’
than some reasonable amount, to be deter
mined by the Legislature, until all thejieo-
plc of tbe State have bad a fair oppotunity
to subscribe for the Stock. I believe tho
Stock of the Road in the hands of a private’
Company would be the best paying Stock in
Georgia. The plan above proposed, would
deny to the wealthy capitalist the opportu
nity of seizing upon the entire Stock of the
Road, aud would give tbe laboring man,
though he may have money to pay bnt for a
siDg’.e share, a fair opportunity in tbe pur
chase of tbe Stock. In my opinion, this ia
I rop.T.
3d. Tho question of freights should be
so guarded in tbe contract of sale, thatthw
Road could cot be made an engine of op
pression upon the people of Georgia in fu
ture.
In the event of a sale of the Road without
this safe-guard, the Company purchasing,
would have the right, in future, to impose
their own terms of freights and passage, and'
the State hound by her solemri contract of
sale, could not interfere to protect ber citi
zens. And let it not be forgotten- that' tbe
Compauy owning this Road would not be
driven by competition, as most other roads
are, to keep down their freights to a reason-

safe then, he said, again to triut those who

upon a question of such vital interest ? But
the American party now attempt to conceal
their guilt in this matter, and to divert
public attention from it, by beooming load
and bold in their denunciation of Walker
and Buchanan. It was not strange that
they should denounce Buchanan—they bad
always done so, and would bave continued
to do so let him have taken what course he
might—they never intended to be pleased
with his administration. «
