. . . ——l—l— "here I live, / hastened nidi *ll speed to’ Millfilgevillc, (o beg you* a respite of liis sfiileure, (ill vlie meeting of the Leg islature, 1 beve iny mourv j***ve nut ; I'Ul pot finding you there, I have follow* ed you bit her, having w alked most of die way (sixty-five miles) in make die r ipir>i. Governor will you uni *ttpend die sen* ten re ? “ 1 ‘Madam, said die Governor, hi* ryes] already Silled with irars, fur no governor ever had a k.ttdcr heart, ‘if 1 vvi re In grant the respite, you eonhl not possibly j reach him with ii, in jour enfeebled and exhausted situation, in time to save him.’ ‘Yes I will, (J ovrrnor ; ui e ii to me, nnd I will have it in Columbus before the liour of execution arrives.’ ‘Then you would have to trine! nielli and day, for four nights, and three dav* and a half.’ ‘Only give me the respite, and it shall Teach him in dim*. I shall see him am how, before he dies; but I have nu time t o lose., ‘Madam, * said the Governor, i ‘most deeply simpailiize with you, and it paines me to tell you, that I should violate my official ditty to grant the respite. I have examined the case, and I cannot find a single mitigating circumstance in your 6on’s favor,’ ‘Oh, Governor ! mj’ son is not a murder er at heart, His disposition is peaceable, lie was not himself when he committed the deed. Oil, Governor ! here on tny knees before you, I pray you have pity upon a poor heartbroken widowed moth er : Our wives sohhprl, and the Governor and myself mingled our tears profusely over the bending suppliant. There was but one of the group that could speak, and that bore the burden of ns all, multi plied a thousand fold. The Governor raised her from her knees, and repealed, by the shake of the head, what he had al ready said.’. And now went forth from the poor woman’s heart—what shall I rail it ? A sigh? It was not that. A sob? it was not that. A groan? It was not that J but an indescribable outbreaking of all that is eloquent in grh f, and melt ing in sorrow. Her accent raugh* the ears of the group in the adjnininiug porch and produced a death-like silence there : and my habitation, so lately the scene ol mirth, was like the court of death. At length she broke silence ‘if there is no hope, I must hasten to my child before he dies.’ She rose, and tremblingly advanced to the porch, followed by the sympathizing friends, but unyielding Chief Magi-Irate. She passed the croud without seeming to notice them ; and, as Iter foot fell upon the step that was to conduct her away from the habitation of hope, she cast bark a melting look, and commenced Iter last appeal, with -Oh ! Governor! for God’s sake’—w hen she sunk to the floor, at length, rising, as if moved bv the thought that she was losing the time which only would enable her to see her son alive, she retired.” The reader will please observe that the poor woman who thus travelled alter his Excellency, partly on font, all the way from Maryland to Oxford, Ga. did mu seek an unconditional pardon at the hands of the Governor hut only a respite till the meeting ol the legislature for her con demned child. Ami, y**i the'sy inpathi xmg friend.’ as Judge Longstreet calls Governor McDonald would do nothing for her. \\ as there ever n more inhuman ad performed by a Governor of a Slate than his sending of ilt is heart-broken modiei with his heartless sympathy, in* stead of granting her prayer and sending an express rider w ith the respite to Co lumbus to insure its reaching there before the day of execution ? Captain General Concha could scarcely have shown a more callous nnd unrelenting spirit, and yet his excellency C. J. McDonald is now lauded as a very humane and kindly dis posed gentleman, whose ‘bowels of com passion’ are ever yearning w ith sympathy for the unfortunate nnd distressed ! Out we say, upon all such sympathy and all such kindness. Ives of theScarlot Degree.— At the last meeting or the 1. O. O F.. Grand Lodge of the United States, pn! or to that which has just adjourned in Baltimore, a selet t committee was ap pointed, of which Mr. Colfax, ol Indiana, was President, to prepare an nppropiaie honorary degree to be confered on wives ofScarlet Degree members in good stand ing. Such a degree was reported by Mr. Colfax Inst week, and is understood lo have caused considerable debate.— Tlie representatives af the Gram! Lodge and Grand Encampment of Northern New-York were unanimously for it.— Those from Sotithern Neu*\\nl{ were a gainst it. A majority ol lho*e from the North-west were for ii. it was, however on Saturday, finally adopted by a vote of 47 to 37. We understand that those receiving it iviJl be known t , s ..'pi,,.

The Columbus Times of August Ist ISo I, thus speaks of Mr. Henning the Disunion candidate for Congress in the 2nd District : “Isi. Mr- Utuning iras a member of the 1 Nashville Convention .” j ‘'2nd. Hud the Southern Congress met, Mr, Denning would have raised his voice for disunion -” I ‘3d. Mr. Henning bt lit res that the decision made by the Cntiv etiiinn in Dt\ ceiubei ISSO, was unwise and wr ne.’ A.MEKICIS, Sept. Ifiili, 1851. Mr. Helming said lieie in his public ] speech in rejdv lo Mr. Jotinwm, ih.it if the Southern Coityics* had loci, us was suggested In ihe N.i.-lnille C-m Million, and lie had been tin led a member of llie samp, lie won|d have been lor a disolu don ol tlie l 1 nil’ll. He ‘ill lurtlier that :l>is plan, siller tlie drsohnioii, was to J strike out State lines in the Smith, and ; form g consolidated republic ; that the compromise measures were a sufficient cause for a disolution ; hut inasmuch as i the State of Goorgia had determined to remain in the Union, he felt obliged lo submit. That lie was now on tlie G<-or* gia Platform, as long as Georgia remain, ed of that mind. H. M.CAY, I EDWiN R. BROWN, JARED TOMLINSON. The above leiti r nnd statement are . from the Georgia Citizen of the 27tli.— The leit< r ol Messrs. M< Cay, Brown and r Tomlinson, unlike the Columbus certiffi i cates, only confirms the testimony of the s Columbus Time s by repeating the avow* , als ol Mr. Bciiiiiug made in person upon . the stump. The Times says that Mr. r Henning believes the Georgia Platform , is unwise and wrong, Henning says lie . is on that Pla tlorm only for the present h follows, therefore, dial lie has mounted j) J* mearly for the purpose of gaining his i merely that lie i may get the power to destroy— he kisses i ihe Union merely that he may gel an op* pertniiiiy to slab it ! What a commentary, this, upon his po litical honesty ! Voters of the Second District, fiiends of the Union, will you, can you vote lor such a candidate or for sm h a party ?—Are you in favor of bal* oting out all Siate lines ? Are you in Invor of a consolidated Government i— , Do you desire to be rolid by the* Disum ionists ol Cnrolina ? If so, vote for Mr.- Benning. It you desire Georgia to re* main a Slate, and to march forward in her present glorious career of prosperity under ‘the siars and stripes;’ then, vole for Mr. Johnson. He is an o pen, honest IriemJ of ihe Union. He will not profess to sustain the Governnii ill in order lo destroy it. H e is the man for the limes. Union men of the Second, he true to your iru>i —true to the Union— true to tlie Republic of y our fathers. Journal and Messenger. WHY YOU SHOULD NOT VOTE for McDonald. Yon should not vole for McDonald, because he is at heart a distinioiiisi, and is the candidate of that party who first proclaimed the doctrine of disunion ai Nashville; he acted with them at the time and was their leader. You should not vole for him, berause “lie was president of ihe disunion conven tion at Moron, where Rhett advised the people of Georgia to go for disunion, nnd never objected a nurd lo such ad vice. He lias presided at every ronven* lion in Georgia where disunion has been proclaimed.” You should not vole for him, berause i lie is in favor ofcalling a Southern Con* gross, nnd advised ihe people in a letter last year lo semi delegates i* the South- i ern Congress, clothed with full power to I act for the Sooth. You should mil vote for him, because i he and his parly are encourging the se- i cession spirit ol Carolina, by promising i to aid them in a fight with ihe govern* i mr-nl. , You should not vote for him, because lie and his parly are try ing to deceive the peopk- by advocating two different plat- I forms with opposite principle. They say i iliey are for the Union platform and yel i they are also for their own pl.ittorm— I manifest hypocrisy and deception ! i You should not vote fur him, because lie is in favor of legislation upon the sob- ■ jert of slavery; a doctrine at varianre with the long established Southern prim 1 ciple of non-inter vent ion. You should not vote for him. because he was twice Governor before, and it is contrary to n'.l usnnge to elect a man the third lime lor that office / and because w-hen he was Governor, lie was a bad one inasmuch as he found tlie treasury full of funds nod left it empty, and the Stale in debt; that under Ii s manage* ment ihe penitentiary w as a dead expense and the bills nf ihe Central Bank depre cated in value 10 or 12 per cem ; for an account of w liich nnd other deficien cies, we refer you to an article in anoili- i er column from ihe Savannah Kepubli* < can, i You should not vote for him, because I [in 1830 he was a high protective tariff \ man, and declared in the Georgia Legis lature that the tariff of 1828 w as right and constitutional—a larifl which the most ultra protectionist of the present day dis* claim, and the same which Carolina re sisted ; that notwithstanding this fact anil without ever having disavowed these o pinions, he now calls for the support of the old State rights men, and his party have taken themselves the name of State rights. You should not Vote for him, because I 830 lie said “ the Supreme Court of the United Stales is the power, having die authority lo determine upon the stiver* eighty nf the Slates,” vvhi'st now, wiili* nut ever having disavowed this opinion, lie professes to hold that tin* sovereignty i of tlie Stales is superior to every tiling. , even ihe constitution of ih** United Stales, ■ and that a Slate may leave ihe Union ai any lime, even without a cause of ol- I fence. i You should not vote for him, because, “ during that same session, an attempt was made by ihe Supreme Court of the United Slates to prevent the States ol , Georgia Iroin hanging an /ndian named Tassels who had been convicted of mur der. Gov. Gilmer communicated tlii* I'aci to the Legi-lature then in session.— A committee was appointed which madd a report, stating that Georgia i yik ne 'ijH parted will, her right Ur,punish crimes; that she would not yield it now, and that 1 assets should be according to the sentence of ihe Coipt. Mr. McDonald with eleven voted NO, to these prim iples,’||L^— * You should not vote for him, because secession emissaries from Carolina have been amongst iis trying to promote his election, and because Sooth Carolina re. gards the success of McDonald as a pledge on the pari of Georgia logo with her out of the Union. You should not vole for him, bpcaure his Carolina allies are seeking tire aid of the Brili*h against our government. And finally, you should not vote for him, because, Rpart from all iltese objec tions to him, Ills opponent, ihe Hon. How - ell Cobb is a more worthy man, a better statesman, and is in every point of view, more worthy of your suffrage. Custville Standard. UNDER WHICH BANNER? We met a gentleman a ft w days since wlm attended a large public meeting near Camden, South Carolina, during a re cent visit to that Slate. He said Hint the first things which struck his attention up on approaching the stand, where two large flags were floating in .ihe breeze. They were planted upon oppo*iie sides of tlie crowd. One wag tlie Palmetto Banner—the other the Stars and Stripes. The speaking soon commenced. The contest was between ihe immediate seces sionist and co-operaiionists. Judging from the remarks of the speaker* ami the clamors of a portion of the audience, cun informant, said, lie supposed that the whole company were disunionisis. After the discussion was ended, some one proposed lo divide the crowd. An “Id man called out to the fi iends of the Union, to ‘remember the flag of their fathers !’ The words fell like a clap of thunder upon the crowd. There was •lealh-hke stillness for a few moments, and then a genet al rush. Seven tenths of tin* audience took shelter under the stars and stipes and gave three hearty cheers fur ihe flag of Washington ! A few men of desperate purpose, look their places under the raiile-suak* ban* tier, while the remainder walked round the flag staff, and cast many a suspicion* glance at Ihe Banner of the new Rhett Republic. One old man, after gazing intently up outlos flag for a lime, slowly shook his head, crossed his hands behind his hark and touk hi* position with the majority, remarking that, ‘ |,e had H ied the govern ment ol Washington a long time—that ne had been prosperous and happy and that if Mr. Rhett ami his followers were not so, they had better leave their coun* try, for llier country’s good.’ Our informant whs astounded himself, hut uot half so much, lie said, as were tlie secession oraiors. They hail supposed the people were ripe for rebellion, an d had il iiol been for the test proposed ihpy might, perhaps, have gone- to extremes; but when it came to deserting ihe flag ol Washington— when calied upon to turn their backs upon the banner of their lath *’rs ‘J 1 * blood of tlie revelation rebelled. As it ws in Carolina, go it will lie in Georgia, on tlie first Monday in Oclo .tier next. The same two flags liave been planted in this Stale, the stars nnd siripps float over the bead of Mr. Cobb, while ihe secession banner—tlie rattle-snake banner the disunion banner is sustained by Hie hands of McDonald. 1 eople of Georgia ! voters of Geor gia I under which banner will you lake yt-ur position ? Or will you not rntlier, like the brave Carolinians, take position under flag of Washington ? If yd i have any doubts—any hesitation—s to your dmy, do as did the old man at Camden. Let well enough alone. Vote only for the firm, unwavering, steadfast friends of the Union as it is. THE SOUTH-WEST GEORGIAN, C BTTIJfNIJBLO&B, EDITOR.

H we meet with sufficient encnragetneni, we intend gelling new material iu a few months and enlarging our paper. Couuectioa of the Central and S, W. Rail Roads On Wednesday night last a freight train of eleven Cars arrived at this place direct liom ihe city of Savannah. The htidge across ihe rivet at Macon, connecting die two roads, is cow complete, and the necessity of unload ing and ie*loading at that city is now obviated entirely. This will greatly reduce freight on merchandise shipped Iront Savannah to this place, and will enable our merchants lo sell goods as cheap as it can he done in ihe city of Macon. The price of Cotton in Oglethorpe: Tlie prices paid for Cotton in Oglethorpe now are equal if not above the prices of Ma con. We quote from 8£ to 8| els. as the Oglethorpe prices. The Macon Journal &, Messenger quotes llie market “from 6A to Bf, sales dull, but few sales over 8.J.” Ii will thus be seen that we are ahead of Macon. 07* By *h' i Postscript of a letter received in lliis place, from a citizen of Albany, we learn dial Dr. Byrd killed Newtrn C. Jones a day or two since, by slabbing him. The difficul ty grew out of an affair nf honor. 07“ We are authorized to say that Cullen Cox, Esq. will have three or four Vehicles iu town on Monday morning next for the pur pose of conveying Cebb men to the polls. All who desire to cast their vole for Cobb and llie Uuion shall be conveyed to the polls, ffho has Lied Now ? Bui a short time since the Editor of the Democrat charged iis with falsehood in the remarks we made in regard to Mr. Benning’s Speech, hut unfortunately for him he did not sustain the chnrge. Well, we entertain about the same opin ion ol our ue'mhhor’s remarks in regard 10 Mr. Cobh’s being “in debt to die Central B ink, making over his properly for,” that he tiid of ours concerning Mr. Henning. Now we do not intend to charge die Editor of (he Democrat with knowingly publishing a falsehood, for h? suit:lit have hern ignorant at the time that he made those statements, of their untruth, or he might not, that is a ques 'i°n left entirely with him to decide. Jf be was ignorant in this matter, however, he will certainly have the candor to re tract his slanders on Mr. Cobb’s private character. If he did it Wilfully and knowingly (which we can hardly believe) we ran but express our sorrow that lie has so little regard for truth. But before e go any farther, we shall prove that the charges preferred against Mr. Cobb in the Democrat were false. This we shall do by the follow ing extract from the Jour nal and Messenger wjjjtbh contains a let ter from Mr. Cobb denying the changes: Mr. Cobb does not owe the Central Bank one dollar, except as an endojjßy and his liability on that acrdijgf'Wex plaineil below. He nevfcr one dollar’s worth of properly lhis wife.— Tiu property which he otw was give! to her long before hfMglpMHge. it h> always been cootrolljp and managed b< Iter trustee; nndjeliher she nor Mr. j Cobb could havtnsed it for the purpose of pay So far Horn acting dis hoiioMfbly lo his pecuniary matters, Mr. Uobb has actually expended a large and separate estate, given in him by his un cle, in order lo relieve his faiher from pecuniary embarrassments. All his in* deluedness was created by his kindness in , aiding, and endorsing for, others. While others look the benefit of the bankrupt law to rid themselves of their own debts ; Mr. Cobb refused to do so, to relieve him >elf from these endorsements. He lias devoted his entire income to ihe payment of these claims, and we challenge any man of honor to Stale a single instance where Mr. Cob has refused to recognize, or pay, an honest claim. What w ill the honest, reflecting people say ol the presses and parties that will Stoop to the cirriilalion of such grave and infamous slanders. They seem to have I, been put in circulation simultaneously all , over the Slate, Even candidates for the Legisluiuie do not scruple to give them currency. The subjoined letter from Mr. Cobh himself settles llie matter. It was written in reply to one from ihe Ed itor ol llie Chrnnacle and Sentinel inform ing him that Mr. Brown ihe candidate for Senator iu Burke and Jefferson, had been circulating the repott : Canton, Sept. 1 Dili, 1851. Dear Sir : I have this moment receiv ed your leiier, informing me that i\lr. Brown was eircnlating a report, that I was indebted to llie Central Bank in the amount of ten thousand dollars, or some other large amount. The report is /* ter/y false. lam the security of Major s Jackson on a Central Bank debt of some lour or five hundred dollars, which f thought was paid, until I received a letter from Mr. Campbell dining the past summer, informing me iliat it was un paid. I agreed to pay it by ihe fi si of December next, if Major Jackson did noi settle it before ; which arrangement seem* ’ ed to be saiisfai lory to Mr. Campbell as lie has not since written to me on the sub ject. Yours, foe., HOWELL COBB. ‘ Now you have llie proof conclusive , that the charges which the Democrat f made were false. And now comes the question, whether the Editor knew it or i not. If lie did, and pul them forth in or der to make parly capital he is guilty of base f , well we wont say what— • we will leave that for the reader. If he made them in ignorance of their fallacy f however, lie has only been guilty of pub* 1 fishing (by mistake) die falsehoods hatch ed up by some oilier Disunionist of his 1 party. Beware of I'inud and Falsehood. We learn, upon good authority, that die Disuuionists are preparing, and will issue in die next Federal Union, and per haps other papers, or in handbills, a t barge, or rather a series of charges, im peaching die personal character and in tegrity of Mr. Cobb. What these char cos are, we have been unable to learn They are as yet kept a profound secret, and have been purposely withheld in or der to render a refutation impossible be fore the election. With all sensible men, these very facts should stamp these char ges as false and infamous—as unworthy if public credence or respect. We how ever, will go further, and earnestly warn die people of the Stale against placing die slightest credence in them. Mr. Cobb challenges a full and fair examina* lion into every act of his life. All he asks of his enemies is, not to stab him in llie dark. That they are attempting m do so, is apparent from die very manner In which diese assaults have been made and are likely to be continued. Union Banner . The Columbus Certificates. The little clique of the Secessiorists a round Columbus seem resolved to defeat Air. J.>hnsoil at all hazards. According* ly, they have published a series of cer tificates, In order to prove that the Un. ion candidate is unsound upon the slave ry and territorial questions. These cer tificates are made up from scraps or pri vate conversations, said to have been held by die relators with Mr. Johnson while they nnd he were on the same side in pol itics. ‘ Now, we do not mean to impeach the veracity of the gentlemen who make the statements in question, but we are free to say, t hat we do not believe in the truth, * i futness oj their charges. We have known Mr. Johnson perhaps as long as many of | them, and have often talked with him when we were politically opposed to each ‘ ’ ” ,,d , Br . e . free IO sa >’. ‘hat we have . never heard him otter any , Uf h mrnt*. < Besides, we are no believers in y ~, - 1 evidence. These gentlemen were h . H : lie-ally and personally osapitted wip, jj v if hey reaWitipposed | . he unsound, on the subject of s |* - they ought to have exposed him lon lore lie became a candidate. It w ; . to the community—it was due to tl, e stiintion which they profess to hr-Vj dear—that Mr. Johnson’s opinions have been made known, instead . f t * t p , we find these very gentlemen, or a< : i jority of them, cordially supporting % . Johnson for the Slate Senate fre i counties of Muscogee and Harris! They must have known his views because they harped as much upon ; slavery question then as now. Whorl Mr. Johnson acted politically with tl k v c cprtifiers, he was a genuine, simnn-p -. Southern man—and Mr. Marks, hi. op. ponenl, was “ unsound upon the sub t of slavery.” In those days, we presi. that certificates could easily have Iv. obtained from Uiesame gentlemen nflir iog that Messrs. Dougherty, Smythe li mbers, were quasi Abolitionists, ami c; emies of the South. Judge Berrien liii self was charged with having walked i procession with the free negroes, an with having made speeches when an alio Inion flag was flaunting his lace. No sensible man, or at least no mai who was not partially demented by pu lilieal phrenzy, believed tlie-e things;— yet they were certified to, and circulate by men who probably believed what ibet said. No mail believed that Judge Ber> rien was enemy of the Smith, because hr owned negroes. For the very same rca : sun no man will believe these allegation* in regard to Mr. Johnson, /s it likely that a man who owns thirty or forty ne groes—who, like Mr. Johnson, has a large family dependant upon that proper ly, in case hi* death, for their daily hteail would entertain sentiments and view j such as are ascribed to him ? W'e put it to the common sense of eve ry man ; and beg the voters to n fieri, •hat these ct rtifica e* are .ill limn pi t-nu, who are deadly hos.ile to both Mr. John soil and the Union. • They ire from een ilemen of excitable V'liipcfaibents. Tln v are based upon remarks made in pri*me conversations, or in the lifriii anil excitr ment of debate. These are put forth on the eve of the election, and >t a time ul u- Mr. Johnson and his friends c.ioitot i*- fnte I bun. Ought not their siaHtin ut-, therefore, to he received wiilivn.md * r: .jni of allowance ? / OBJECTIONS TO MR. AbM, ANSWERED, j In the discussion in Dublin last w. ch, in which Me>srs. Stephens, Lewis, atui Love participated, it by the lat ter gentleman, we are informed, as an ob jection to Mr. Cobb, that he bad voted, while a member of Congress, for the Wii tnot Proviso. This Mr. S. flatly detiiic, and called for proof, but none tould I*- adduced. Mr. S. shewed by llie recoil's of Congress, which be bad before liiir, that Hr. Cobb voted against the Ori gin Territorial bill, in which ‘lie W'ilmnlPro viso was engrafted, and with h is now the law of the land. Mr. Stephens also states, in rcplv to the charge made against Mr. Cold), of hav ing from choice placed Fiee Soilers on the Committees in the House, that tliete is a rule of the Mouse of which requires every member pteseut at its organization, to be placed on someone of tlie Committees—that no member ran be forced to serve on lb. ee, hut is obliged lo serve on one, if not two of tlie emu* miilees. Thus it is seen, as they are scrutinised, the objections urged against Mr. Cobb’s election, full on by one to the ground, or else evaporate into the air. Mississippi Election.- The Teleersph reports show that the self-sty led > South, ern Rights’ party is literally no wherein Mississippi. Says the New Orle.ns Crc* scent: ‘Our sister lifts upon the Union banner proudly. She is thrice welcome in the ranks of die true and the patriotic, because *he lias been sorely tempted and tried. Misrepresentation, insidious pat ty appeals, the blandishments of old ami popular leaders, have not made her swerve in the good cause. Site has come forward to bury the last hope of treason and disunion ; and in her great and good labor she has forgotten every thing but our common country. All honor wl Mississippi. Did we not say truly that her gallant sons, remembering Buena Vista, could never do ought which might lead to the sinking of one star from the national banner— under which they have won such imperishable renown ?
