Ree der, late Governor of Kansas, the abolition sqoatters have repudiate-! the enactments of the late Territorial Legislature, refused to participate in the election of a, delegate to Congr-ss ordered by that body, and, at a convention ricenfly held at Big Spring, repohed to elect their own delegate to Cotrgress, thereby placing themselves in antagonism to the constituted ; uthnri ties, and tidy ing the United Slates whom they rtpte sent. Ex-Governor Reeder was nominated by the abdi florist U' d will he voted fur by them as their delegat to Congress. He has acetjp'ed the n-'ininaiiun and de livered a speech to his deiud and follows, from which tin following is .n exPac : ‘He urged the free State men of Kansas to forget all minor issues, and pursue determinedly t ie one great object, never swerving, hut steadily piessing op, as did the wise Hien who followed the star to the manger, looking back only for fresh encouragement. He counselled that peace- In resistance he made to trie tyrannical and unju.-t law- of the spurious I egidatute ; that appeals to the courts, to the ballot box, and to Congre s be made for relief from this oppressive load ;that violence should be deprecated as long as a single hope of peaceable redress remained ; but if at last all these should fail—if in the proper tribunal there is no hope for our dearest rights, outrag-d and profaned—if we are still to suffer that corrupt men may reap harvests watered by our tears, then there is one more chance for jus t ce. God lias provided in the eternal frame of things re dross for every wrong, and there remains to us still thestea dy eye and the strong arm, and we must conquer, or mingle the bodies of the oppressors with those of the oppicssed upon the soil which the Declaration of Independence no longer protects. But he was not at ali apprehensive that such a crisis would ever arrive. He believed that justice might lie lound far short 01 so dreadful an extremity ; and should an appeal to arms come, it was his opinion that if we are well prepared that moment the victory is w r on. Our invaders will never strike a blow in so unjust a cause. “ ‘Thrice armed is he who has his quarrel just.” “He then entered into the plan of conducting the cam paign, and advised that the proclamation from the people calling the election be eigned by every voter. Let the le gal requirements of an election be strictly observed. Our position is one ofasking only that the Jaw be carried out. When Col. Ethan Allen was asked at Tieonderoga by whose authority he demanded the fort, he replied, ‘ln the name of the great Jehovah and the Continental Congress.’ 1 expect of you that you so piepare me, that to the similar quostion I may boldly answer, ‘The great Jehovah and the sovereign squatters of Kansas ’ lie spoke long and elo quently upon the importance that no rashness should en danger the Union, which we all love and cleave to. He did not consider the correct public sentiment of the South as endorsing the violent wrongs wdiich had been perpetrated by Missourians ir. our Territory ; and that being so, he wait ed to hear their rebuke. Should it not come, and all hope of moral influence to correct these evils be cut off, and the tribunal of our country fail us while our wrongs sliil continue, what then? Will they-have grown easier to bear by long cutom? God forbid that any lapse of time should accustom freeman to the duties of slaves! and when such fatal danger as that menaces, then is the time to— “ ‘Strike for our alters and our fires, Strike for the green graves of our sires, God and our native land.’ ” Equally lawless speeches were made by other merns be~s of the convention, and there is no doubt of the de sign of the freesoil settlers to force upon Southern.set tler* the issue of arms, if the back bone of the rasoala does not give way. Ia view of this threatening aspect of affairs, the South should lose no. time in seuding up reinforce ments to the aid of the Missourians in Kansas. They are doubtless brave, loyal and Southern, and, in a fair fight wiili doutrle their number of abolition emigrants, would come oft victorious; but that is not the most important question connected with these Kansas quar rels. The South must have the Territory. It is large enough to make three States as populous as Georgia. It lies broad side to Utah and will settle the destiny of ; that immense Territory as to slavery It is to the South what Sevastopol is to the Crimea. We must have it, or give up th fight with the abolitionists. We deeply deplore the condition of affairs in Kansas. But as this unfortunate condition of things has arisen, tftxs ihe Washington Sentinel, and we endorse its l .n ----guage, “we hope that the issues involved will be radi caiiy and permanently settled, if we must ha- ehi <ud eh and in older to check the mad spirit of aggressive Fa naticism, then let us lot'-e bloodshed—ju.d (he s oner the be.ter. 1 ms tar. the Southern party in Kansas has carried its measures by means of the ballot box. If evil and sposed men undertake to resist those measures, i or to overthrow and destroy them by the use of physi eal force, the cold steel ought to be used tft sustain the , voice ot the bdl >t box, and uo hesitation and but little i mercy ought to be show n. “ 1 he South has always, from necessity, acted on the defensive in those questions which involve slavery. The Southern emigrants in K uisas are acting on the dTensive now. They have the vantage ground, and wo trust that they will maintain it all hazards and to ; the last extremity. ’’ Farther from the Georgia Election. We give to our readers to day the vote for Gover nor in 97 counties : for Johnson 46,196 ; for Andrews 33,772 • for Overby, 5,798 ; majority for Johnson over Andrews 7,421 ; majority for Johnson over An drews and Overby 1,626. The 16 counties yet to hear from lie principally in the Ist, sth and 6th Districts and will very materially 7 increase Johnson’s majority which will fall very little, if any short of 5,000 votes over both his opponents ; and not less than 12,000 over i Andrews. The Democrats and ami-Know Nothings have elected Seward, Crawford, Warner, Lumpkin, C bb, and A. 11. Stephens to Congress; while the .Know Nothings have elected Trippe aud Foster ; 6 to 2. The Legislature will he anti-Know Nothing by at least 60 majority on joint ballot. Ihe victory is complete. Know Notliingism is total ly routed Id Georgia. “Go it Jeremiah.” Such was the tacetious caption of an article in the Coin mhus Enquirer, before the election, in which the editor attempted to ridicule our prediction of the result ot the election. What does our ’neighbor think of Jer emiah now ? Has not the event more than fulfilled the prophecy ? Gen Arista Among the papers of Gen. Arista, who recently died whde on his way from Iyabon to Paris, was his will. It directs that. IPs heart be embalmed and sent to Mexico. He left nothing to Ids wife. He bequeathed his property to a relative and his personal cfiVcts to a servant. Court of Claims. The Cou ■t if Claims reassembles in Washington, early in October.

Liquor Shops Closed. —The hquor dealers in At- | lanta closed their bar rooms on election day. The j Atlanta Republican records the result as follows : “List Monday, theft, was the proudest day for At lanta that Atlanta has ever seen. By far the most ex citing election that ever come tff in Georgia, when by far the largest vot9 ever cast in the city was thrown, as paradoxical as it may seem, not a fight, not a row, not a single fuss of any kind took place. From early morn till retiring eve, not even a dispute or a hard word was heard ; nor could we hear of, an oath or a profane word being used in all the vast crowds assem bled at the City Hail and other parts of the ei'y. It may truly be said, *.l at last Monday was a proud and honorable day for Atlanta ’’ Cotton from Dale county.

The Clayton Banner of Saturday morning, says this gentleman left our village Thuisday thes:h inst., to spend j a few days in Eufaula—thence he will take his departure tor Kansas, tne theatre of his future labors. We rejoice that his claims to high official position, have been recog nized by the President. So far as a critical knowledge of the Junctions of his office are concerned, he will have no superior upon the Supreme Court Bench of Kausaa. The Tennessee Legislature. Both |branches of the. Tennessee Legislature met in Nashvtlie on Monday the Ist inst. The Senate was organ ized by electing E. S. Cheatham, K. N., President, and K. R. Walker, Clerk. The Know Nothing majority in the Senate is two. The House had ballotted twenty six times previous to adjourning Tuesday evening, without electing a Speaker. The Know Nothing party has one ma jority, but as both candidates vote for someither member, the Know Nothing candidate cannot obtain a majority, which is necessary to an election. The vote stands every ballot —Brown 36; Donelson 35 ; Scattering 2. University of Virginia —The session of the Uniyersity commenced on Monday iast.

Atlanta Bank. We see going ronnd the papers a statement of a run made on the Atlanta Bank, on the 25th ult., and as many of the facts and circumstances are left out, we give the leading facts of the case. A gentleman from Chicago, by the name of Washburn, called on the bank on the 15th ultimo, at half past 10 o’ clock, accompanied by a distinguished lawyer from a neighboring city, a Notary Public of this city, and present ed to the Bank $35,090 in Bills lor redemption, whereupon the President proceeded to counting the bills, and lound in the packages many bills not on the Atlanta Bank, and also half bills He counted steadily on, dinner hour ex cepted, until one quarter past 4 o’clock, at which time he had counted and sorted about $30,000, po bill in the lot be ing over ten dollars in size. At a previous run by the same pa:ties, the officers of the Atlanta Bank had taken then packages as labeled, and gave tbem the gold, but on coun ingth*nn, they found one package S6O short, and one rais ed bill, Lfc-idesseveral bills on other banks. In this cast they determined to use more care, as they also discovered at once, that a difficulty was intended by the parties pre senting the bills, and found as they proceeded, as high as $ 150 bof other money in one package. At a quarter past 4 o’clock the President delivered the gold for w hat he had counted, and told the parties il they would call in the mor ; nsng they would count and redeem the balance. This dii not satisfy them, and they proceeded to have the balance ot the bills, about $3,000 worth protested. It is due the hank to say, that it had on hand at the time, more thai $300,000 in gold, and they took the preca tion to have disinterested witnesses present during the transaction.— 1 Atlanta Republican Emancipation in Kentucky.— The Newport [Ky.] News, at the suggestion of a number of prominent slave holders in Kentucky, proposes that a convention be held in Franklort to adopt a plan for the gradual emancipation ol slaves in that State.

Southern Education for Souihern Youth. The Hon. Jonh Perkins, jr., of Louisiana., one of the ablest and’most laborious members of the last Congre.-s, who, we sincerely regret to learn, has declined a re nom ination in his district, in reply c> an invitation to addie.-s the societies of Centenary College, refers,as folk w> to the great mistakes which are made in regard to the *ducat:on of southern youth, and interpose?- suggestions which wul awaken a response in the breast of every reader ol the Re view.—De Bow’s Review. I feel deeply the importance of educating our young men at the South, and had circumstances permitted, I should have been pleased to embrace the occasion of an address at your commencement to express myself free, ly on the subject, I have long made it a point to watch tho issues of the northern press, and the past year I have purchased a full course of northern school and college books, such as are in most general use, and it seems to me impossible fora youth to be pressed through tbem and retain just feelings towards the South, or pro per ideas of its rights under the Constitution. From the frightful pioturea of slaves at work under the lash, which ornament the child book, up to the sickly senti mentalism of their class readers, and on through the “higher law’* reasoning of “Hicoek’s Moral Science, ’’ there is a oonstant effort to impress the youthful mind with the idea that slavery is a great sin, for the exist* eooe of which every American cit zen is responsible until Congres acts upon the subject. The com pends and oondensed commentaries upon the Constitution pre pared for schools and business men, and the only ones generally read by their divines and the great mass of the people, are just such as are fitted to confirm these early impressions. I have in my library some eight of them, prepared under different names, and they ail gloss over and misrepresent—in a manner calculated to deceive—the rights of the slaveholder under the Con stitution j while they enlarge and artfully magnify, by ; every possible construction, the degree of power given to the Federal government over the subject. To my mind, the certain result of all this in the iuture is plain. The free States have now the ascendancy in the gov ernment. In less than five years, issues of the gravest character will have to be deoided in Congress. Tiara will be something more at stake than the money val ue of Southern Haves. To the South it w ill be a quta tion of existence. When that time comes I prefer to have the yourg men of the South prepared to speak from conviction cf the wisdom and policy of our peculiar institutions. I do not desire their -judgment won over by a perverted j moral sentiment or by fictitious appeals to their passiom. To confess that slavery is a great social and political evil, is to prepa e fur battle by throwing away our arms. It is worse —it is to plead guilty ai.dat-k for mercy. There is a philosophy at the bottom of this sulject which ie weil treated of in some es the French works on the organization of labor, and which should be par ticularly impressed upon our attention at this time, by the growing conflict between capital and labor at the North, dividing whole communities into classes, engen dering hatred between trades, and sowing animosity and jealousy and ill will between the rich and the poor to a degree, that one living at the South, and rarely thrown into the maelstroms of the northern cities, can not conceive. There is a work recently published by Mr. Fitzhugh, of Virginia cailed “Sociology for the South,” which should be in the possession of every Southern gentleman. It is full of valuable suggestions on this subject, and withont necessarily endorsing eve ry sentiment of the writer, few can read it and fail of being confirmed in their attachment to our peculiar in stitutions. A Southern critic, speaking of this work, has Baid w’ith much truth : “The splendor, animation, and crowded population of the northern cities excite, bewilder, and delight southern men and their families. Compared with the cairn, easy indolence of their own communities, a painful eeneo of inferiority depresses them when they go back to their own brims. The d.fference is as between a magnificent panoramic view, and a dark still landscape 5 life in action, and life in repose.” “Let them'be contented,” the writer contin ues, “the work of Fitzhugh will do more to reconcile them to what they have, and what they are, when he reveals to them the interior view, the miseries of pau perism, with its grim and hideous attendants, its dire degradations as shown in penitentiaries and houses of refuge even for the young.” To these indications of an unbealthy state of society In the north, the writer might have added the mingling of religion and politics, the open profhgaey charged by persons of reputed high character one against the other, and seemingly credited ; tie almost utter absence of anything like devotion to principle in political matters ; the power of vice, of almost every description, to com mand respect by surrounding itself by wealth ; and, beyond all, and, perhaps, in a great degree accounting for all, the gradual relaxation in tbe popular mind of any very strong religious faith. The Calvinietio eharches of the Puritans have gradually gone off, first info Unita rianism, then into Universalism, and then into a higher transcendentalism, equivalent with Pantheism in rtlig ion. and higher-law-ism in politics. In the law school at Cambridge, the j ary for a moot court ii taken from the under graduates of the College, formerly it was selected from the members of the Di vinity school. A foreign writer, noticing this fact, and speaking of the gradual weakening of religious con viction in the New England mind, pointedly remarks, the reason tor this change in the composition of the jury is supposed o be, that there ore not ordinarily 12 men in the Divinity school who believe in the existence of a Gi and, and recourse has to he had to the ingenuous under graduates. It is common to hry it said by the unr fleeting, that boj s eangot be properly edui-a’ed at the South, and must be sent abroad, to the north or Europe. There •an-be no gteater error. The history *f the country s illustrated hy those who have been educated at the “opth. Washington grew up in a Southern State, —* Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Tyler, and Polk, were fd- j rested at the South.
