Johnson’s majority in Irwii is 276. and unless Clinch gives Jenkins more than that, Johnson is elected. lie is 760 votes ahead, with Clinch to hear from. Seward is 221 votes ahead of Bartow, and Clinch to hear from. The Governor’s Election. We give the official and telegraphic returns from all the counties in the State exoept two. The returns have been verified as far as possible by reference to local pa pers and private advices. W r e believe our list is as correct os can be obtained at this time. In the 97 j counties heard from Johnson’s majorities are 8,799 Jenkins’ “ “ 8,806 —7 ahead. In the county of Irwin the majority of Towns over - Hill in 1849 was 296. In the county of Clinch the whig majority in the congressional race between Jack son and Hopkins in 1851 was 161. If these two coun ties vote in this election as they did in the elections above mentioned, Johnson is elected Governor of Geor gia by a majority of one hundred and twenty eight votes. We think there is a mistake in Union county. W e expect to gain 200 on this vote. In Gilmer we may gain 200. Complexion of the .Legislature. In the Senate the Democrats have elected 27 Sena tors, und the whigs 24. In the House the parties have elected each 39 members. We have returns from only 53 counties. In Effingham and Bryan we have not learned who are Senators. They will probably be a stand off. Austria and America—Mr. Marcy’s Letter. The correspondence upon the subject of Koszta’s ar rest by the myrmidons of Austria in the port of Smyrna is entirely too lengthy for our columns. It fills eight columns of the Washington Union. The subject, how ever, is one of such vast importance, especially to for eigners resident in the United States, that we cannot pus it by without notice. The following abstract, it is believed, contains a foil and fair statement of every po sition taken on either side. Mr. Hulsemann to Mr. Marcv. The Austrian Consul General in the East, Mr. DeWeckbecker, had caused Martin Koszta, the Hun garian refugee, to be arrested and carried on board the brig Huszar; Koszta hnd left Turkey in company with Kossuth, and though pledged in writing, never to set foot on Ottoman territory, had broken liis pledge by re turning some months since to Smyrna. His release # \vas demanded by Mr. Offley, United States Consul, and Captain Ingraham of the Sloop St. Louis, on the ground that he was naturalized in the United States ; both of whom had it in their power to learn from Koszta him self, that he was not a citizen of the United States and had no passport. The American Charge d’Affairs at Constantinople then demanded his release from the Baron de Bruck, Austrian Minister at Constantinople, upon the plea that he had taken some steps to be admitted as an American citizen, and two days after forwarded to the Baron a copy'of a “declaration of allegiance to the United States,” signed by Koszta in New York, on the 31st July last, to which was attached a defective certificate. The Baron refused to release Koszta upon th ground that Koszta could not expatriate himself so long as the ties which bound him to Austria were not legally dissolved. The declaration of allegiance to the United States is utterly worthless, as there is no proof that it is a legal document, and it is merely a declaration of intention , on the part of Koszta, to become a citizen of the United States. On the morning of the 20th July, Mr. Ingraham of the St. Louis, sent a message to the commander of the Huszar, that in pursuance of instructions from the American Charge at Constantinople, he demanded the delivery of Koszta into his hands, and if he did not re ceive a satisfactory answer by 4 o’clock, he would take him by main force. Both commanders prepared for battle, which was only prevented by the Austrian Consul General consenting that Koszta should be con fided to the custody of the Consul General of France at Smyrna, until the difficulty was settled. There are two questions involved in this discussion. Ist. The question of jurisdiction. 2d. The formalities in virtue of which the pretensions of the agents of the United States have been urged. Koszta has never ceased to beau Austrian subject. The laws of Austria do not permit voluntary expatriation. The declaration of Koszta on board the Huszar in presence of Coin. In graham, shews that he still considered himself an Aus trian subject. By the laws of the United States, a declaration of intention to become a citizen is not suffi cient to make him such. The United States refuses to give possports to individuals in this category. As, therefore, Koszta was an Austrian subject, the Aus- j trian official was perfectly justifiable “in virtue of those j treaties which subject Austrian subjects in Turkey to consular jurisdiction,” when he seized Koszta. But the mode adopted by the American officials to settle the matter in dispute is particularly objectionable. It was a real hot of war committed in full peace on neu tral territory, and an outrage on the principles of the law of nations 5 aud the imperial Government has no doubt but that it will be condemned by the Govern ment of the United States. (Mr. A. here recapitulates the facts already stated as j to the hostility demonstrative of Capt. Ingraham, and quotes authorities at length to show that the power to j declare war appertained to sovereignty, and could not safely be intrusted to commanders of the naval or milita- | ry forces or of diplomatic or oonsular agents. He also quotes authorities to show that the law of nations abso lutely prohibits all acts of war and violence in neutral ports even against an enemy in open war •, and refers particularly to the history of the United States, and the opinions of Mr. Webster to show that the Govern meat of the United States was particularly jealous of the rights of neutrals, and concludes as follows.) The imperial Government entertains too high an [ opinion of the sense of justice and of integrity of the I Government, and of the United States, to doubt for a ■ingle instant, its anxiety to disavow the conduct of its agents, under the circumstances above mentioned, and that it will hasten to call them to a severe account, and tender to Austria a satisfaction proportionate to the King- ■ mtude of the oatrage. Mr. Marcv to Mr. Hulsemann. The President has carefully considered Mr. Hulse- j mann’s note, with a view to ascertain the nature of the ; complaints, and to give Austria such satisfaction as she was entitled to receive. The Austrian views are very different from the Pres- j ident’s, and hopes by an exposition of his own to change the Austrians. It is the duty of the Secretary to pre- i sent these views, and he does it in a friendly spirit. To j bring out conspicuously the questions involved, it is ne- j eessary that the facts should be more fully stated. Koszta was a Hungarian by birth, and engaged in the ! Kossuth Rebellion, and took shelter in Turkey at the j close of the war. The extradition of the Hungarian j . refugees was demanded by Austria, and firmly resisted j by Turkey, They were confined at Kutahia, but were j at length released with the understanding with Austria that they should go into foreign ports, and most of them indicated the United States as the country of their I exile. It is not true that Koszta left with Kossuth or i ; engaged never to return to Turkey. To this sentence of banishment Austria gave her consent and superintend- 1 ed the embarkation of the exiles. Koszta came to ! I America and selected this country for his home. On | the 31st of July he made a declaration of intention to become a citizen of the United States, and renounced all allegiance to any other State, in legal form. After remaining here one year and eleven months he returned ! to Turkey on private business, in an American vessel, ! and the United States Consul at Smyrna and the ; Charge at Constantinople extended protection to him 1 and furnished him with a teskeret , or letter of safe conduct, as by Turkish laws they had a right to do. His conduct in Turkey was blameless; while waiting for an opportunity to return to the United States, he was seized by a band of lawless men, who had not any color of authority, treated with violence and cruelty and thrown into the sea. Immediately thereafter he was taken up by a boat’s crew, lying in wait for him, be longing to the Austrian brig of war Huszar, forced on board that vessel, and there confined in irons. These desperadoes were instigated to this outrage by the Austrian Consul General, contrary to the authority of the Turkish Governor of Smyrna. The American Consul, as soon as he heard of the seizure of Koszta, intended with the Turkish authorities, the Austrian Consul and the commander of the Huszar for his release on the ground of his American nationali ty, and Koszta’s original certificate of his having made a declaration of intention to become an A mei ican citi zen was produced at Smyrna and an imperfect copy placed in the hands of the Austrian Minister at Con stantinople. All efforts for his release had failed, and it became notorious that he was to be clandestinely conveyed to Trieste. Opportunely the St. Louis arriv ed in the harbor of Smyrna, and Capt. Ingraham having satisfied himself of the truth of the foregoing facts and of other evidence of bad faith on the part of the Aus trian officials, demanded Koszta’s release, and threatened ! force if his demand was not complied with. The priso j ner was, therefore, delivered to the custody of the French Consul. In order to arrive at just conclusions, it is necessary to define Koszta’s political relations with Austria and the United States when he was seized. There is great diversity of opinion on the subject of allegiance. By some it is held to be an indisputable tie ; by others as a civil contract dissoluble by mutual consent, but not at the option of either party ; but the soundest opinion is, that a blameless citizen may at any time renounce his allegiance, quit the land of his birth, and form new political ties ; and especially is this the case where the sovereign power is oppressive and tyrannical. Municipal regulations on this subject have no force beyond the limits of the countries enacting them ; and where questions of this sort arise between two sovereign States, neither has a right to appeal to its municipal laws ; the law of nations must settle the question be tween them. The law of nations has rules of its own on the subject of allegiance, and disregards ail restric tions imposed upon it by municipal codes. No State can demand from another even a fugitive from justice as a matter of right. International law allows no such claim. Much less does it enjoin the surrender of political offenders, (and in this class Aus tria places Koszta;) but on the contrary, a compliance with such a demand would be considered a dishonorable subserviency to a foreign power, and an act meriting the reprobation of mankind. (Mr. Marcy then briefly recapitulates the occurrences which took place in 1849 and 1850 in relation to the reclamation of Polish refu gees in Turkey and Russia, and of Hungarian efugees by Austria.) The demand was made in concert by two powerful nations while their armies stood on the borders of Turkey, with power to erase her name from the list of nations. They both placed their demands on higher grounds than a right of extradition under the law of ; nations ; they attempted to strengthen their claim by | founding it upon the obligation of treaties—the same ; undoubtedly that are now urged upon the considera tion of the United States. Turkey, however, refused to surrender the fugitives, and Austria and Russia both submitted to the refusal and neither presumed to im pute to Turkey a breach of her duty or violation of their rights. (The views of the English and French Minis ters resident at Constantinople and of the French and English governments are given, fully sustaining the conduet of Turkey.) It is an incident of great significance that some of the most important questions involved in the case of Koszta were raised in 1849, were discussed throughout Europe and decided against Austria, and especially the claim founded on treaty stipulations with Turkey for the extradition of Austrian subjects. This question was fully examined by Lord Palmerston and the claim of Austria repudiated- Ali Pacha and the Turkish Minister for Foreign affairs both deny the existence of any such treaties and informed the America Minister that Aus tria had refused to surrender Turkish rebels on the ground that the treaties did not provide for the extra dition of political offenders. Even the Turkish gov ernment has protested against the seizure of Koszta as a violation of its sovereignty ; but utters not a word of complaint against the conduct of the American func tionaries. This is an anomalous case. Austria arraigns the United States for violating the rights cf Turkey ; while Turkey exonerates the United States and protests against Austria, our accuser, for the same offence. Admitting the validity of the treaties referred to, and yet Koszta ought not to have been surrendered un less lie were an Austrian subject. By the procurement of Austria, Koszta was sent into perpetual banishment. He was thus placed beyond the protection of Austria. He was thus released from his allegiance to Austria. Koszta when seized at Smyrna was not an Austrian eubjeet for the further reason that by a decree of the Emperor all Austrian subjects who leave the dominions of the Emperor without permission, and with the inten tion of never returning, become “unlawful emigrant*’* and lose nil their civil and political rights. Koszta j had left without permission, had forfeited all his civil 1 acd political rights—aud was an outlaw. He had in 1 Austria no redress for personal wrongs, and no claim out of it for protection. What right can a sovereign have to the allegiance of a person reduced by him to such a miserable condition ? In Koszta’s case it was al'owed. Seme stress is laid upon the declaration of Koszta as to his citizenship. Koszta never acknowledged that he was a subject of Austria. He said “1 am a Hun garian, and will live and die a Hungarian.” In his mind no two things could probably be more distinct from each other than Austria and Hungary. Those who acted in behalf of Austria have no right whatever to seize and imprison Koszta. To place the jurisdiction of the American agents still j further beyond controversy, it will now be shown that j Koszta when seized, had the national character of an : American, and that the Government of the United ; States had the tight to extend its protection over him. ; There can be no question of the genuineness ofKosz- i ta’s certificate, a certified copy of which is furnished as < on record in New York. It is not pretended that this initiatory step in the j process of naturalization invested him with all the civil ! l ights of an American citizen. It, however, clothed j him with an American nationality, and authorised the \ government of the United States to extend to him its protection at home and abroad. Mr. Hulsemann falls : into a great error by assuming that a nation can pro perly extend its protection only to native born or natu ralised citizens. This is not the doctrine of international : law. It gives the national character of the country to ! all residents in it who are there with or even without j an intention to become a citizen, provided they have e ! domicil therein (This position is fully sustained by , reference to numerous standard authorities. Apply these principles to the case of Koszta, and the j inevitable result is, that he was domiciled in the U. States. The establishment of his domicil here then in | vested him with the national character, and with that j character he acquired the right to claim the protect : ion of the U. S. Was Koszta clothed with that national character | when he was kidnapped at Smyrna ? The national character, according to the law of nations, depends upon the domicil and remains as long as the domicil is i retained. Domicil cannot be lost unless the domiciled i person leaves the country of his residence with the in ! tention to abandon his residence and acquire a domicil jin another. The facts show that Koszta was only I temporarily'absent, with no intention of remaining in | Turkey, but was at the time of his seizure awaiting an opportunity to return to the U. S. Whenever an individual becomes clothed with our ■ national character, be he a native born or naturalised ; citizen, or an exile driven from liis early home by 1 political oppression, or an emigrant enticed from it by ! the hopes of a better fortune for himself or his posterity, lie can claim the protection of this government, and it may respond to that claim without being obliged to explain its conduct to any foreign power, for it is its duty to make its nationality respected by other nations, ! and respectable in every quarter of the globe. This is no new doctrine, now for the first time brought into operation by the United States. It is common to all nations, and has had the sanction of their practice for ages ; but it is new that, at this late period, when the United States assert a claim to it as a com mon inheritance, it should at once be discovered that it is a doctrine fraught with danger, and likely to eompro mit the peace of the world. The conduct of the United States officers is further ! justified by the peculiar laws of Turkey and other Eas tern nations by which consulates therein are allowed to receive under their protection strangers and sojourners. Persons thus received become invested with the na tionality of the protecting consulate. The law of na tions recognises and sanctions the rights acquired by | this connection. The Secretary fully sanctions the course pursued by the functionaries of the United States, censures that of ! the Austrians, and while professing a perfect readiness to make all proper explanations to Turkey for any sup posed invasion of her sovereignty, utterly refuses to al low’ Austria to question our conduct. The Secretary also admits that only the sovereign power can declare war, but can see nothing in the conduet of Capt. In graham to justify the inference that his acts were a vio lation of the public peace. j The application of Austria to other European powers is condemned. The President refuses to disavow the acts of its agents and hopes Koszta will be released. Blackwood’s Magazine. —W T eare indebted to Messrs.

Mr. Everett on the Kosta Affair. —“If the circular, purporting to be addressed to the Ministers of Austria, is authentic, that Government complains of Capt. In graham’s aot as a menace of war and a violation of the neutrality of Turkey. “But in both respects the wrong and the outrage were on the side of Austria. Kosta was residing at Smyrna, as we learn from Mr. Brown, under the protec tion of a taskeret granted by the Turkish Government at the instance of the American Charge d’Affaires, who interested himself in his favor because he had declared his intention to become an American citizen. Wheth er this circumstance entitled him to such protection was a question for Turkey to decide according to her laws and usages. Under these circumstances I cannot con ceive that the Austrian Consul had any more right to send an armed force than he would have had, two years ago, to send an armed force up to Kutayeh to seize the whole body of Hungarian forces.” Mr. Dix and the Richmond Enquirer. —Mr. Dix addresses the following letter to the editors of the Richmond Enquirer , in which paper of the 24th, it appears, the editors accept his challenge to produce the evidence he says has no existence, but promising to do him justice : New York, Sept. 20, 1853. Gentlemen—ln an editorial article in your paper of the 17th instant, I am charged—Asst, with making “furious abolition speeches in the Senate of the United Statesand, second, with the rhetorical “flourish” ot “a cordon ol free States surrounding the South and compelling slavery, like a scorpion encircled by fire, to sting itseltto death.” These imputations are alike unfounded. 1 never made an abolition speech in the Senate or out ol it—l never uttered or entertained the sentiment above attributed to me—and I qall on you to produce the evidence on which your asser tions were made. Your own sense of propriety will ensure the insertion of this note in your paper, without a request to that effect from me. I am, respectfullv. vours, JOHN A. DIX.

We are"pleased to notice that the second volume of the works of the “Great Southerner” bns been issued by D. Appleton & Cos., Nett York. We hope our Booksel lers at the South, will purchase a large supply and thus bring to the door of the Southern public the almost inspi red wisdom of the greatest, purest and profonudest States man the country has produced since “the Fathers” fell asleep. W e are pleased to see that the North appreciates the volume of this publication. The N. Y. Courier & En quirer says : “This volume contains all the reported speeches deliv. ered by Mr. Calhoun in the House of Representatives and the Senate, from 1819 to 1837, thirty-six in number. A large variety of subjects are discussed—The War Meas ures of Madison’s Administration, the United States Bank, the Tariff, Internal Improvements, States’ Rights, Removal of the Public Deposits, General Jackson’s Pro test, Executive Patronage, Abolition Petitions, the Public Lands, Ac., &e. ; hut all have a striking identity lin mode of language and argument. Search the w hole ! through, and you cannot find a figure of rhetoric, but it j is all welded logic, sometimes defective, it is true, in im i portant links, but everywhere the work of marvellous j skill. Mr. Calhoun's speeches ought to have a place in j every library, by the side of Mr. Webster’s Though on j almost every important question offered, they illustrate | and enforce each other, and, combined, they give a dear* ! er and deeper view of the great principles w hich lie at ; the foundation of republican and constitutional principles ; than can be obtained elsewhere in the whole scope of | English literature. No tenet, either in religion or poli , tics, can be thoroughly understood until its opposite has j been faithfully examined. The question of greatest im | portance in this volume—the State Rights theory—which i Mr. Calhoun did more to develope and define than all j other men together, must long form one of the most pow'- erful elements in our political controversies. It is no soon** ; er disposed of in one form than it is sure to arise in anoth er. Every man who would thoroughly understand the diverse tendencies of our political system, and their bear ings upon party measures, must acquaint himself with all the aspects of the State Rights doctrine ; and to do this, it is indispensably necessary to know how Mr. Calhoun vindicated it, as well as how Mr. Webster combatted it. This publication is one of standard and permanent value, and the publishers deserve praise for giving it to our ciun ! try in so excellent a style.” The N. Y. Herald speaks in the following terms : “ The Works of John C. Calhoun. —We are indebt- ‘ ed to D. Appleton & Cos., of No. 200 Broadway, for the receipt of the second volume of the “Works of John C. Calhoun,'’ which has been just issued by their house. The work is edited by Richard K. Cralle, and the arrange ; inent of the highly interesting political matter which it ! contains is as creditable to liis talent and industry, as the ! style of art in w hich the book is brought out is to the taste and spirit of the publishers. The volume now before us, extends over five hundred and sixty-two pages, and in cludes all the speeches made by Mr. Calhoun from the year 1811 to the end of the winter of 1837, with some of j the more early oratorical efforts of the great statesman, | which have not heretofore appeared in print. “'Hie j Works of Calhoun” will form an invaluable addition to the libraries of our people, as they must ever be read with | pride, pleasure, and profit, by the American patriot, the ; orator and the statesman. The speeches delivered during i the war of 1812 possess extraordinary interest—flashing ! as they do with the ever varying, brilliant, and resistless i eloquence of the gifted South Carolinian. The ability of j argument with which lie carried the country upon the ■ question of the declaration of war against England, ;in opposition to the massive, but pacific, facts j urged by his Senatorial competitor, John Randolph, | against him, cannot be fully understood unless by the pe j rusal of the work. We heartily recommend the book.*’ Additional per Baltic. Baltimore, Oct. 3. The Havre Cotton market was active, and the sales | during the week ending on the 18th ult., comprised i 9,000 bales.
