Letter from Mr. Stephens—Know Nothings will vote for an Abolitionist sooner than for him!! Crawfordsville,.Ju!j 30, 1853. Di Jeter, Buena VNta: 1->kar Sir : Your letter of lliO 25tli inst. was received yesterday on my reaching home. In anew* r, I regret to f*ay I cannot make any appointment in your section of the State during the canvass. The “Know Nothings” are moving heaven and earth to defeat me. The Presi dent of the Council in Augusta declared not long since that there were four or live hundred men in Augusta that would vote for an Abolitionist before they wou’d vote for me. This shows what some of these Southern Know Nothings are np to. It is indeed one of t lie most mis chievous organizations ever started in a free country.— Their object is proscription, and 1 am not surprised to hear of a great many quitting the order, as they tee more of its hideous deformities exposed. A. 11. STEPHENS. The Selma (Ala.) Sentin ?/ of the 10th inst. says that Messrs. Leach and Donohoo have taken tlie contract for laying the iron on the Alabama and Tennessee Hiver Railroad, from the present terminus to Columbiana, and that they will commence the work immediately. JIM Counly. —The American patty of Bibb county has nominated J. T. Hardeman for the Senate, and Elisha J)avis and Win. D. Williams, for the House. Caper Mills Burnt. —Whiteman’s paper mills near Nashville, were burnt on the 22d inst. Loss s4o,ooo—in surance $13,000. Senator Gunn —Senator Gwin is stumping the State of California in favor oi Undemocratic ticket,and is everywhere received with hearty, enthusiastic welcome. No Demo crat in the Union is truer to his party, and his friends than Dr. Gwin, the able and faithful Senator from the golden State. Kentucky Election. —The official returns give More head (K.
