Slade, proprietor of the Pavilion * House, ■ There is to be a Scott Ratification Meeting held in this place on night next. We predict that it will almost as thinly attended as the latel Pierce meeting. “Fort-lie week (tiding June 17<b, were 126 deaths, by cltpler*, and 170 - fretp other causes, making ip the aggreO gate 299 death, in t.e week.’ ? We find thi above startling a’iqpiince-1 ment in il'e’ohi|uary column of the last! Democrat. We are gs a losj to knoyv where all this look place; whether in Oglethorpe, Montetuma or Traveler’s Rest, qr whether the editpr of t|ie Dernn cr:l bus only oipitted a credit, and sad dled upon us a week’s mortality of the “Crescent City.” Will lie rxplntp? The Annexation of Canada, Mexico, and Cuba. We see in every I(einorraiic paper we lay our hands upon, a letter written by Gen. Scott, in 1849, favoring the annexa tion of Canada to the United States.— These ptesses are endeavoring to use this as an objection to him, in order to make capital ior Pierce, who by his own views m acts lias never made any for him tell. This we will .itlinit, is an objection to hut at the suite time, we feel that the .same ol jeclinii, in a more agra yatrd |onn, exists with Mr. Pierce. 1 is will known t|tat Mir great conservative Whig party have alway s heefi opposed to the annexation of -my lerritorv belonging to a foreign power, to the United Slates, until such foreign power should relinquish all claini to, and acknowledge the hide* prudence of the territory making appli cation. Il Gen. Scott should be elected, lie would go into power under an ami auenxaiion administration, elevated by a party who have adopted as a part r.f their platform, die principle ol non-interven ’tion. Under these this ob jection will have but very little weight,- On the contrary, should fierce h.yc,me the President ol the V?iiiled States, it wi.1,1 he through the agency of a party known (o possess directly opposite principles, favorable to the of any and every country dial yniy apply, regardless ‘pnf the coioequences.

Cuba’s S|>anix.h qitdaitnes fin a.st come under uncle Sam’s guardian ship, and Hungary must have Knsuth for Presiiimt through the valor of American {"arms. N"l satisfied with this, Mr. Pierre could not suffer his Canada neighbors, ’with whom it is so convenient for him to have almost daily intercourse, to re main tinder the Government of England. We see but ve.ry little difletence ill the probable e\jls from annexation on the elevation pf either pf the prpsepl candi dates to the Preiideney, so far as they are individually ronreriicd, hut yre do see a vast difference between the parties who seek lo elevate diem, qod by np means could we he brought to operate with party wlm entertain principles de rogatory to the friendly relations of opr Government w tilt foreign nations. A Svott Communication. In another column will be found a communication calling upon the Whtgh ofGeorgia to support Scott in preference to Pierce. The writer of this communi cation admits nitnself, that Scotts nomina tion is unsatisfactory, but denies the sti* periority of Pierce even as a man, to say nothing of his hostility to Whig princi ples. We agree with him, anti while we denounce pen. Seott, for die cninpanyj I e i( in, we shall oppose Gen. Pierc’ as| not only being in equally as had or worse J but as directly and bitterly opposing the principles of our party. We might he induced perhaps, lo support a Southern Democrat, but a Northern Democrat, w ith a horde of surrounding him, cau never secure our co-operation. It is the dun of every Whig to battle for his principles, and even at this time it would he a base desertion of them l<> fur liter the election of the Democratic iiomi* nee l>r ihe Presidency, who is every way inferior and as equally unsafe and un sound as their unit candidate. We do not by any means, recrvmmend ihe Whig parly t. support Scott, far from it, we could not he induced to support him ourself, we have seen enough to con vince us that lie is not only in the hands of the free-soil party but is himself an abs olitionist in principle. This is enough to prevent any southern man from voting for him. But at the same lime, this is no reason why southern Whigs should g'ne their support to the Democratic nom inee, who was born and raised at the Ninth and of course feels no identity with their interests. Scott is by far she most preferable candidate now before the people,’ and yet, he is unworthy to receive a single vote from the south. As it is inconsistent and unsafe for the Sonth to vote for either of the present candidates we desire the nomination of a third man, and so far as we have con versed with the people it is a general de sire. If, howeuer, no third candidate should be nominated, we for one slialll withhold our vote, rather titan become! ‘a contributor to the overlbrowi of south-! fern institutions. (COMMUNICATED.) | Mr. Editor The question is con-! “stonily asked, ‘ Wltal wjll the Whigs do?’! £As lor one, | can say, I shall vole fori Scott. He was bv no means royj [choice, and 1 hate the necessity which im | Ippset |t qpoii tpe, and siilj more would L (dislike to vote for Pierce and King.—- j FLet the Whig party consider the lines! and character of the two parlies, the prills! ciples which have berelplpre divided ihemS from the Democratic party, and what satisfactory reason can any whig in Geor gia giye lor prt-feriiig Pierce to Gen. Srul|. The only reason / have ever heard given, was that he was not their choice. The troth, Mr. Editor is, that sogit of tlie pretended leaders of Whig parly and the principal papers of that party, in their great zeal and desire lo have another man nominated (or Presi dent, took occasion, in advance, to de uotince Gen. Scott and pledge themselves against him, in the event lie obtained the nomination, and now tltm he is nominav ted, they find themselves in adilema, and n order to get out of it, ihey are \vtiling to s* II themselves to the Democratic par •v. So far as these leaders and Citiz- n? ,re concerned, they may go, it is not tin iii st time in the history of the Whig par ty ol Georgia that il has been deserted toil abandoned by iltose who had’ onci ranked among its ablest men, hut it stir lived the shock anil rose triumphant and Inn led front power and place a most cor nipt and wicked administration. The few would he U-ajiers of the present day rnay leaye us, but the great mass of the Whig party wi.lL stand now, as it cyer has stood, by (heir ptjiipiples, auj not follow after, at the beck aud call of party leaders, and parly papers. The great national Whig party of this Country, is the great conservative parly of tlie Government. — It has contained in its riyiks some of the ablest and purest men that ibis or aqv other country lias ever produced. One us the noblest and most gigantic intellects that now lives, is found in iis ranks. — Will the Whig parly desert the principles for which they have contended f or yemsS ■because a few Squires here and tltcieg ■and a few Editors have done so ? It isft Bu hat the whigs of Georgia never lutveS Bdone and never will do. Ii has been at-! lien.p’ed in Macon at a recent meeting, J Hto instruct the delegates I” the Unions Convention, to nominate a Pieice anda King ticket, but we guess tlie getiileinanl wlto introduced that resolution will ‘rernnjj without hit host * when he thus under-- takes to transfer the Whigs of Georgia! to the Democracy. He has been Inngj enough in their ranks to Itave understood! their independence ami character a littlej belter than to have supposed they would t have tripled with and bartered offiiG that way. The Whig part of Georgia will standi by the man that will carry out their prin-1 ciples. But we are told tint Seward amlt Greely ami other iufamemis abolitionists,| support General Set’ll. This is true,’ hut how much hylter off will we he toj suppoit F'eree and ally ourselves with; Martin and John Van Ruren, Rantoul, and other distinguisrd al'oiitipnisis of ihej Democratic party ? Tlie Whig party j have nominated two Southern tpen hy] birth and education, whose prejudices! and affinities are all w ith the Southern! people. Not so with tlte Democratic I party, they have gone far uprlh u> pick] up a Yankee. We say to the Whigs of Macon Conptyl to stand hy iheiisand let die few leaders! an-! would he great among them, desert | So and go to the tanks ul tlte denouncers of.’ gtlicir principles and their party, it hnsj not been the fivst ti.-iie that they have! thus been abandoned.

He doubted the propriety of beiug represented—consider ed tlie Union party as having accomplish ed the great end for tvhirh it was organ ized and dissolved itself—could affect nothing hy again assembling &z.c. G. W. Ashburn, a former delegate to the State Union Convention, followed in a short speech showing the propriety of again assembling the State Convention land urging the importance of a repreitn.B Itation from all sections of the State, ■ W. W. Corbitt then being called upon I |presetH e d Itis views to the meeting. [j]l | did ppt believe that the action of the ap.l Iproaching Convention from the indicvl |tions he saw in other sections of the Stot r l Iwontd meet the approbation of the p an A lin this section, and therefore ■the propriety of taking aqy actiop “would commit tlie party to the support ofl [either of the present candidates. | Mr. Allen then'rose and after making*] fa few remarks introduced the following® [resolution, which was unanimously adop.B | led: Resolyed, That this meeting appoints four Relegates to the Convention tu bel held in Milledgeville on tlte 15th insi.,K and that they be instructed to use theirP influence lor the nomination of a thirds | candidate for the Presidency, and if they ] 1 fail to secure llietr object, then to retire § from the Convention without rommittingtf themselves to either of the present cagdi [1 dates. On the passage of this resolution, Col. I Robinson rose and remarked that he de- tg sired only to be considered as a spectator 1 in tbe meeiing-r-that be would not be held responsible for in action. In accordance with the above resolu. s lion the chairman appointed as drlegatei, John V. Ptite, George W. Ashburn, E. W. Allen and C. B. Youngblood. The meeting then adjourned^ THOS. RAGLAND, Ch’o.

I find that quite natural, because between both parties, there is no difference as regards the in ternal policy, and because only by the ‘inanity of the German citizens of this ‘country, the election will be such that, by and by, the administration will turn their attention to other countries, and give every nation free scope. No tree, my German friends, falls with the first stroke J it is therefore necessiry that, inasmuch a* you are citizens, and can command your votes, you support the candidate who will 1 pursue the external policy in our sense,, and endeavor lo effect that all nalons be come free and independent, such at is th* 1 case with happy America.’ ” The friends of a second electoral tick et for Pierce and King are preparing !• concentrate aH their force in the ap. proachuhg Convention at Milledgeville.
