got JOHNSON'S KZBSAOK AND GOT. BROWN'S inaugural. %- In the taut isiiej>f the Reporter we gave a briof .ynopi.ii of Gov. Johnson’s Menage, and ai we pub lish it entire in tbii, we deem it unnoco.iary to .ay more in regard to it. In the present i.iue, we pub j li.b al.o the Inaugural Address” of Gov. Brown, and I w ; t h it we think uien of all partiei ought to b i pleated. Upon the subject of the State Road, the *1 Governor i all right, a. we knew before, and we % hope that it may be a Icon to some of our people at leu*t, admonishing them not to believe everything i they hear, eapeeially when it chine from a political ;* enemy. After .peaking of the incalculable beiie fits which have accrued to Cherokee, und indeed to 1 the w hole State from the con.truclion of this Road, the Governor conclude* with this patriotic senti ~me lit: “ The example i. worthy of imitation, and in ’ mv judgment, the Legislature taking care that the 4 State la amply secured, beyond the possibility of a j doubt, .hould not he.itatc to extend that aid which a I. neeenaary for the development of other lections. A. an example, what Georgian would not feel proud - to see our beautiful commercial emporium connected by Railroad with our South-Western border and the * Gulf of Mexico; thereby developing the great sea port, and South-Western portion of our State; and musing much which is how awilderneii to bloom like the row, and to teem with the rich products of the fertile ipil f this beautiful, and interesting ee * tion.” All honor to Gov, Brown for thus boldly taking position in our favor, and we trust that he will be seconded heartily by our Cherokee friendi. The Governor allude* moat beautifully to the para mount importance of educating the rising genera tion, and we see that a bill lias already been intro duced into the Legislature upon this subject. Sue cess to this great project! \Y e, the men ot the present day, both ruler, and the ruled, must soon pass away, and the destinies of our bclortviFfetnte, ‘be committed to the- hands of thoae who are now children. God grant that they may be qualified to take ohurge of the high and responsible trust!— the Gtsvernor then ’notices the Bank suspensions, and after lome sensible remarks, says : “On being informed, upon such legal evidence as the statute contemplates, that any chartered Bank in Georgia suspends specie payment, 1 shall order proceedings tyr-th* forfeitures of its charter “- -XhU- strong lan guage does not seem to go dowu so well with some of the press, but for ourselves we approve and en dorse it most heartily and fully. According to the organic law of every Bank, one dollar iu specie to every three that is issued in bills, must la* in the vaults of the Bank, the Legislature intending by this that the bill-holder should at least have the securi ty that one hears to three. But it seems that the Banks have traveled out of the State, and gone to New York to buy up Southern paper, or engage in other speculation*, w'hieh has created an indebt edness there against them, and Which, if enforced, w ill drain them of their specie. They have to shut down, they say, in order to give the bill-holder the security which the law says he shall have. Ibis may he all well enough for us, lint it in no wise ex cuses tile wrong of the thing. A\ hat right hail the hanks to engage in any business, which would haz ard the security of the Georgia bill-holder, for whose benefit, together with the Bank corporators, the Bank itself is established ! They hfc.l none, and al though stringent measures against them may ruin some vs US, and affect us all more or less, yet pop it to them, say we. Governments and laws are not formed fur a Jay, or even a generation, and let not ’ our children ■yt to say that because we, their fathers “eat -sour grapes their teeth are set on ’ edge.” The last matter noticed by his Excellency i* our Federal Relations, and on this subject he is right side tip also. Georgia has taken her position in this regard, and by legislation ha* “provided the means to carry into effect her firm resolutions, and made it the dqtj of her Executive to see that her stern de crees are faithfully executed ” We happen to know <in\eVusr- Joseph E. Brow n personally, and our word for it, when the day of trial comes, which God in his infinite mercy avert, lie will Ire found as firm ns a rock. Jai kmiN vili.k, Telfair Cos., 1 October 22d; 1857. ( Mr. Editor: —I have been in several counties since the election, afld onff senti ment prevails,that Chatham county deserves more honor than any other county in the District, for the manifold vote Hem ocrats gave to Seward. We arc ready and willing to do all we can for you at any time. It is the wish of nil the hack-woods, that you have the next Democratic candidate for Congress. I was in your city a few’ days, before the election, and was somewhat alarmed—l fear ed to hear the result, but vve are rejoicing for you, and when the news came what tild Chatham had ‘done, we fired twenty-five guns. Yours, &,c., W. W, The. above is copied from tlie Savannah (Georgian, and we have a word or two to say in reference to it. The correspondent says ; “ We are ready and willing to do all we can for you at any k time.” We suppose that this refers to the J Georgian, and we. second the motion most heartily. The Georgian is a most excellent paper,-and edited by a gentleman in every respect. The correspondent goes on; “It is the wish of all the back-woods that you have the next Democratic candidate for Con grcaa.” We cannot say ns to tlifc sentiment of all the hack-woods, but our own agrees with that of the correspondent to the extent that the candidate should come from the East. Mr. Seward, living in t lie-wet re me Western portion of the District, has been elected three times, and it is but fair that the other side should have the next representa tive; hut there are more places in the East than Savannah, and gentlemen of high tal ent litre outside the walls of that city. Hut the main object of this-writing was to notice” the first sentence in t|iis communication.— The correspondent says; “I have been iu 1 several counties since the election, and one sentiment prevails, that Chatham county de serves more honor than any other county in ’ tha District, for the manifold vote that the Democrats gave to'Seward.” /. Chatham county with a decided Demo cratic majority, allowed Seward, the Demo cratic candidate,'to be beaten ninety votes, therefore hallelujah t -hurrah for Chatham county ! jpd slioot off twenty-five guns!— Now this jubilation over a defeat, when we should have had a victory, must appear ex ceedingly ridiculous, in the eyes of people outside the District. The Democracy of Chatham County are no better so far as we know or bciieve than the Democtpcy of any other county in the State, nnd we Are willing to mete out to them the same justice due to mbci s, no more, no less. k Democratic Convention. A Democratic Cbnvention will be held in Thomasville, on Tuesday the Bth day of December, for the nom ination of County Officers. \ --M ‘.y - - COBRESPONDECE WIBE-3BA6S BEPOBTER Milledcevjllk, Nov. fjjth, 1857. Messrs. Editor's :—Nothing of great im portance, has transpired since my last. The two houses nrc getting on arfast as could be expected, many important measures have bgen started, and soon the debates will com mence. Although there are no brilliant men composing the Senate this year,yet the body ! w ’iH average more men of real good sense, and sound judgment than is usually found in |so large an assemblage ; the same may be | said of the House of Representatives, j Hon. Robert Toombs was re-elected to ! the U. S. Senate wiUiout an effort on his part; ihe is very populnrSfctli the masses, and lie I is second to none, italic councils of the coun try —he made a good speech the afternoon of j his nomination-—some five or six hunffred be ing present to hear him. Hon. Joseph 11. Lumpkin was re-elected to the bench of the Supreme Court, a posi ! tion lie lias held with so much honor to him ) self and usefulness to his native State, since j the Court was established. His election was 1 nearly unanimous, he receiving all but two | votes. The Hon. A. 11. Stephens has been in the j Metropolis for several days—he was Chair man of the Committee of 24, at the great i meeting of the Democrats, on the evening of j the 10th inst., and made a fine speech ; con- \ i sidcred by his friends, as one of his ablest efforts—l bad the pleasure” of heating him, and felt proud of him, ns a Georgian—l send you the resolutions adopted on the occasion. Mr, Davis, tfie Representative from the coun ty of Early, died yesterday mormHg, and both for the day ns usual. He was in feeble health when he arrived, here, was-sick only a few days, and leaves, I learn, a wife and six children. Mr. Smith, of Tattnall is quite sick, but considered by bis physician, somewhat better to-day. From a letter I saw yesterday da ted Jacksonville, Nov. 6th., I learn that Mr. Dorminy, Representative elect from the coun ty of Irwin, and who has not been able- to roach this place from sickness, is no better, and fears are entertained of a fatal termina | tion of his disease. 1 think a majority of-the Legislature are disposed to differ witli Gov. Brown respect- j i ing the Banks, still there arc a large number with the; Governor, in feeling and opinion.— The bill authorizing the Tax Collectors, to take tlie bills of those Banks which were in good repute, before the suspension, in pay ment of taxes due, has passed the House, nnd will pass tlitrSenate in a day or two. I hear it rumored that Col. Turk the pres ent principal keeper of the Penitentiary will be removed, and Col.. McConnel of one of the Cherokee counties will be appointed in •his place, and” I hear it also Stated, that Dr. Lewis of Cherokee, will he - Superintendent of the State Road in place of Col. Spurlock. Dr. Lewis, ’tis said, sent our present Gover nor, to College—and his nppoinnnent, is an act of gratitude on the part of his Exeellcu cy; ‘ . . i ‘1 here arc very fexv ladies present this Session, many sweet, familiar faces are ab sent, and on enquiring, I learn,that, most of; them have married. Last Session was a j luck}'one, for both ladies and gentlemen— and 1 hope life present will be equally so. Yours, ~ Ai.apaha. „ B. S. I forgot to mention that Mr. Bough ton of the- Federal Union was nominated By 1 1ae--Democratie portion of the- legislature, for State Printer. The Federal Union, the. Empire State, j\tliews Banner, and South estern News, were, the combination repre sented by Mr. Bougton,’ and received 104 votes iu the Nomination. The Savannah Georgian, the Constitutionalist and Atlanta Intelligencer, composed the other combina tion and received 50 votes. A DEMOCRATIC MEETING. Agreeable to .previous notice given the Democracy of tire Thomasville District, as sembled this day.for Hie purpose of select ing delegates tqrreprcsent this Districct in a county Cohvej|niofi. fa be held oil the Bth day-of December next, for the purpose of nominating-candidates for county Officers.

At a meeting of the Democrats of the “17th district, c nvened in conformity to pre vious notice, at the Court Ground, on Satur day the 14th instant, Isaac Alderman was called to thc/Ghnir, andJoseph Singletary appointed Secretary.

ISAAC ALDERMAN, Chairman. Joseph Singletary, Secretary. [communicated, j FLORIDA CONFEBENCE. Mr. Editor :—ln viw of the prevailing fever in Jjtcknotyville, by the mutual arrangement of friend* and the Miuister*, it i* noW determined to hold the Conference in Thomas vil te, tocommeiice on tin* 16th of December; and the citizen* of Thomusville here by give to the preacher* a cordial invitation to hold the Conference in thi* place. Preachers on arriving at Thoma*ville will call at the store of Rev. H. W . Sharpe, to learn where they will sojournduring the Conference.

Will the paper* iu the Florida Conference please copy the above. Respectfully, P. P. .SMITH, A. GRAHAM. ©bitnurn. C. J. Blalock, non ofD. and M. Blalock, wa* born iu Lincoln cotip ty, Ga., oil the 6th of January, 18t7, joined the M. K. Chorrtifftr'k?r'Ptwff**hig religion which was manifested in all hi* after life, not by shout* aud high j) raises, but in a steady up right walk and usefulness in the church and iu world. ■* In JB4O he removed to Florida with Mr*. Sand w-iek’s ianiiljy,and in 164 2 was married to Mi**. OliYinjSaiidwickx Here in his relationship to thi* lain ilv as well a* to the church, he showed the spirit of a true man and Christian lie acted unbly the part of husband and father, (as he and his precious wife had five pledge* of their mutual affection.) also tin part of brother to the sister* of hi* wife, lor they were indeed made father lex* and brotherless by the hand of violence- Their father had fallen before they left Lincoln county, and after their removal, .their two brother* one after the the other had fallen by the side of this brave companion, and one was carried from the sivauip, by hi* own hand*, while the ravage Indian* yelled but a short distance from them The care of all the family now fell upon him, and (as all of them will testily,) most nobly did lie act the part of broth er towards them in their helpless condition, lie was appointed steward ot his church, and minister* who have travelled that circuit, (Lowndes county, for they had- removed to Georgia ) will testify how he acted his part.and showed one main qualification, liberality. He Jpid become a merchant, and, for tlie.. second time bad gone to New York to purchase goods, and there death iu the form of congestive chills, seized him for his victiih, and hi* (we trust) happy spirit fled to that world unknown. Why. oil .Death,’ didst thou not permit this husband to return and look upon the face of his loved Olivia once morel Why didst thou not let hiui have her aud her little one* to kiss hia pale cheek, nnd give him up to God ! Why not let him say good night to his sisters at home ! Wby not let them gather itrnnnd with his wife and little ones, and bedew his couch with their tears and embalm him for the toyib ? Why not let them follow tlu-ir minister iu slow and silent step, to the house of God, and hear the sweet comforting words of Scripture—“ those that sleep in Christ wULGod brftig with him. Why not allow them to follow-to the grnve in silence, and there, in n flood id’ tear* look on while earth received him from their sight? Why didst thou loose hi* spirit in a distant laud, and then consign his body to the great deep ? Death is silent. He cannot speak.— Where shall we find an answer to these questions?— Nowhere now.- But, when time’s busy wheels shall stand still, aud eartii'w-fiiniibcrless millions are hustl ed in silence, then shall God, the Saviour, speak, and tell us the reason why. Then shall all things be made plain, aiiiLwe shall see how this, as well as all other things, worked for good to them w ho lov ed Go I, who were the called according to his pur pose.” May that God, “ whose ways are past find ing out.” give light and comfort to the bereaved wife and-c i deen aid numerous relatives of the deceased, until we are all guided safely home with nil the Church of Christ.

Another Case of Fever and Ague (Intcd. —A few days ago we recorded uii astonishing cure of Fever and Ague by tlic use of Dr. M’Lnn's Liver pills, prepared by Fleming Itros., Pittsburgh, Pa.

Mr. Sharpe also expresses an opinion, founded on observation, that the Liver Pills are the best for bilhous complnints ever offered in his section of country.
