■From. the .Vo iional American. letter from at Southern Demo crat Ur. Editor : To uiy quiet home, day after day, your “racy” Daily liu come, and with it the well filled columns of the “Intelligen oer” and “Examiner.” I have been, sinoe the contest for Govern or began, a silent looker on, and, when not disgusted, a patient Journal reader. I re solved at the outset, that I would study close ly the character of men, and give to the bal lot-box in October, the respect it demands from every patriot citizen. My predilections haw been and are still for the Southern, wing of tne Democratic party. I love this sunny South. The bones of uiy lathers have com mingled With its soil; tho blood-boughtpat rimony is tuy home, and while there lives an enemy to its institutions, he shall ever find in ine a foe. Tho Democratic principles of Calhoun are my principles; they have gov erned me thus far in life, and will ever con tinue the basis of my political creed. Yet, sir. Democratic as I claim to be, 1 am not to be blinded by the fanaticism of party rule, or have my independence compromised by the jargon of political tricksters. lam hon est enough to throw aside differences in opin ion, trivial as they arc, and in the coming election for Governor of Georgia, support Benjamin 11. Hill, of Troup—a Christian gen tleman and honest patriot. I have always had for Hill, although but slightly acquaint ed, the greatest respect. I admire his flash ing genius—the dignity of his deportment, and his moral excellence—would to heaven such men were in office evry where 1 When the Democratic nominee was auuounced, I, lik many others of my party, was all anxie ty to see and near the unknown stranger fr.-ra Cherokee. I have seen him—heard him discuss the po ileal questions of the day, ano, as an honest citizen of Georgia, 1 declare that, I cannot support hi* election by Vote or influence, whilst his opponent is in tli • field. I admire, sir, tbe spirit ‘>f your corn-spot (lent in Monday's pnpi-r. i’he miserable a’ l ises, cont ■ nptible iud.'cencies, tliut are he* >ed upon the character and position of Mr. Hill, luce sickened me, and many oth ers. ’Tis an inauspicious day for Democra ny when its Press becomes the channel of such spleen, l-ailery and undignified abuse ; the certain evidence of a conscious inferior ity. Corrupt the fountain, and impure must be the stream. Let the gambling technical ities, and undignified vituperations of our Democratic journals continue, and the party will sink benoath the standard of patriotic citizens. Mr. Hill is a gentleman—a Chris tian gentleman ; the Methodist Church re cognizes him among its best members, and yet his character is maligned, his veracity questioned, and his Christianity repudiated by men whose standard of morality is noto riously low, and who, for “the pap” of of fice, would seek to bury worth aud superior excellence beneath u host of the most shame ful abuses I Let the high-minded, noble Democrat brand such characters with a stig ma of contempt, aud with inauly indepen dence acknowledge the capacity and worth of one of Georgia's noblest sons. SOUTHERN DEMOCRAT. roll THE GEORGIA CITIZEN. To tbe People of Georgia. Fellow-countrymen I ten days will not have passed away before you, by the exer cisa of the highest and most sacred right ot freemen, will, through the ballot-box, have either endorsed or condemned the Executive interference in the affairs of Kansas. Your decision will be for weal or wo. In your decision is locked up the destinies of your own sunny South and country ! How will you condemn the source of all this evil to your section and country ? By voting for a man who professes to hate the treason, yet loves and defends the traitor! Will you vote for a man who condemns the theft but defends the thief ? Will you vote for a man who tells you in one breath that Walker in Kansas is letting out the life-blood of the pro-slavery party there, aud in the next, de fends Buchanan, who if he chose, could at any moment have staunched the wounds of the bleediug South. Hag the oil of consola tion, promised in the event of Mr. Buchan an s election, been poured into these wounds ? How has Mr. Buchanan dressed these wounds ? Where ig the bandage that wa promised the bruised and mangled body o. Jio South in the election of Mr. Buchanan ? Is it necessary to remove her shroud and ex pose the lips of her gaping wounds, that her deep and damning wrongs may rush back upon your memories? How she has been deceived and wronged hy Buchanan’s inter- 1 ferencu against her rights through his man Wa,ker >n Kansas I This is no high-wrought ‘ picture. It is truth without the touch of 1 fancy. I What r!iff-retire will there be hetwoei 1 your voting for Joseph E. Brown, who en i dorses Buchanan’s policy in Kansas, and yv.ir voting for Mr, Buchanan, were he to day a candidate tor the IVaiueney ? Think SeioUsly of this matt.-, I Would Jllu u . Georgia!!*, , te ter air Buuiiai.au a,;ain. y -re he acu ididate W President ! VVoul -'■ doit * STo. in,.. ,~n you rot, f,*r Brown who defend* him, and would vote for him for President You see you cannot condemn Buchanan and Walker by voting for Brown. Then how can you condemn the Buchanan and Walker policy ? The question is, how ?_ Vote far the man who condemn* the treason and the traitor. Vote for Georgia’s own na tive and gifted son. Vote for him who i the brilliant orator, the logician, the patriot, and philosophical Statesman—Benjamin H. Hill 1 There is no other way whereby you can condemn Buchanan and Walker. Vote for Browu and you approve Walker’s course, for the principal is responsible for the acts of the agent. Vote for Hill and you condemn Walker. Every man who votes for Brown, endorses Buchanan and Walker’s jiolicy.— No man can reason that conclusion away. Let every man before he votes, sit down and think oalmuly aud seriously belore he does vote. Let him reinember if he votes for Brown, he votes against the South ! If he votes for Hill he votes for the South and country. Remember that the destiny ot yourself amt your children is in your own hands. Remember that Hill, if elected Go vernor, will recommend that policy which will give to every little orphan and every man's child (who by misfortune is unable,) that which no misfortune can depress, no clime ib stroy, no enemy alienate, no despo tism enslave —an education ! It Brown is elected, this blessing and boon will be with held from the helpless orphaus, and the poor man’s little children. Parents, do you love your children ? Phi larilhropists, do you seek to elevate and re fine the helpless and indigent? Then vote for the peoples’ candidate—B, H. Hill. Pa triots, would you rid the State and country of demagogues ? Would you see the veil torn from tile political corruptions of the age ? Then < :e or Hill. If you would wish to make the little orphans remember where they gamboled in early youth, the stream upon whose flowery banks they played and first felt gratitude to their God and their State, vote for Hill. If you would fasten upon their memories, and give them a green spot in their helpless and orphatiized condi tion, vote for Hill 1 Is the spirit of patriot ism and chivalry that animated the South and tiie country hurried in the corruptions of party, or has it taken its flight for other anil more Congenial climes ? Methinks its impress s still on the hearts of the people, auu the people are with their gallant leader, B. H. Hill. I have placed before you independence and degradation, choose you between slave ry and freedom, llill is not coutending for party triumph, but for the liberties aud sa cred rights of the people. Then fait not, 1 adjure you, to give him your hearty support. LOWNDES. FOR THE GEORGIA CITIZEN. Mr, Toombs against tbe Poor Man. Af r, JSriUvr : Mr. Toombs defends his votes giving 1 away the public lands to Railroad com panies, upon the sole ground that the government looses nothing. To whom are these lands given ? Are they in any one instance given to the poor and indi gent ? Are they not given, in every in stance, to the high and rich. The rich are made richer, an 1 the poor poorer, by the giving the lands to the Railroad com panies. How are the rich made richer? Because the lands are given to the rich. How are the poor made poorer ? Be cause before the lands were given away to Railroads the poor man could get them for a dollar and twenty-five cents an acre, now if he gets them he has to pay two dollars and a half an acre. Be sides, ’tis said, members to Congress are sometimes interested in the Railroads and lands that are voted to these rich companies. Toombs says wheie every other sec tion of land is given to Railroad com panies the Government loses nothing. Why, because the value of every other section is increased from one dollar and twenty-five cents to two dollars and a half an acre. Each section contains six hundred acres of land. Now, to a poor man it would make a great difference whether he paid #1,25 per acre or 12,50 per acre for a section of these lands.— Mr. Toombs is giving to the rich.— W beivas seven hundred and fifty dollars would have purchased and secured to the poor man in moderate circumstances, a section of land, now it will take fif teen hundred dollars to buy the same number of acres of land. Is that not leg islating for the rich alone ? What right has the Government to turn speculator in the public lands? Who is it that goes into the new couutries 1 Is it the rich or poor ? Do the rich and aristo crat c go into the forest, cut down, clear up and till the lands, or rather is it not the >oor man, who goes there, hoping to he r..ue, from the low price of one dollar and twenty-five cents per acre, for lands, to purchase from his government, and se cure to his industrious and thrifty wife and lit'le ones, a home, but the magnan imity of tile lion. Senator, and his party, step - in and says the i.-cids are too plen ty m.deheap, we will giveaway one half to the rich that will increase the val ue of the remaining half to double its value now, though practically excluding the poor man from a home in the wilder tices of his country. Such, my country men, is Democratic legislation. Such is a fair sample of the tender mercies of the Democratic leaders for the poor of tha land. BERRIEN. 1 Manifest Destiny. The Mercury comments oil the “Muni fest Destiny” article of the last West minster Review. It says that this arti cle proves too much for the Abolitionists themselves, and that their own organs cry out against it. The author proves, says the Mercury, that the Union is in a rapid progress of disintegration—an as sertion long ago made by a largo portion of the Southern press and politicians. The Mercury adds : “No! no! Mr. llurlburt, if you be the man of‘manifest destiny,’ the North ern people do not want to dissolve the Union. Dissolve their bread and butler —dissolve their prosperity—kill the goose that lays for them all the golden eggs! No! no! the Union is their mine, their mule, their milch cow, feeding on Southern pastures, and milked exclusive ly by Northern hands! Destroy that! No! no! The North is the Old Man of the Sea. He. rides on the Southern Sin bad. Sinbad is Ins water-bearer, his pack-horse, his miner, digger, delver, up on whose muscles he fattens—upon whose fat he feeds. The Old Man of the Sea never kills his Sinbad deliberately; nev er, if he can help it. He will work him to skin and bone, hut not be unwilling that Sinbad shall thrive, so long as his digestion is good, and thistles are in plen ty. He will no more destroy him than you would destroy your mule, your ox, your ass, or any thing that is yours.— We do not read that the ‘Old Man’ made any such attempt on Sinbad; but we do read that Sinbad, one day plucked up courage enough to brain the old despot as he slept. Let our despots consider the moral. It is as old as the days of Mathuselah !It is the moral in the history of every confederacy of States, where the hig ones—the commercial—preted upon the little ones—held always to be feeble —tho agricultural. The stone goes, and grows as it goes. The rod is in pickle, even now. The tricks of party are dis covered. The wire-pullers are caught in the act The people—Sinbad—is awake, and he will brain you before he sleeps again.” in Earnest Word to tlic Ameri can Party. There is one thing, says the Athens “ Watchman,” we would like to say to every American voter in Georgia, and repeat twice a day from this time until the day of election. It is this: Vote all together. In Congressional Districts and counties where we have no candi dates in the field, and the opposite party have a plurality, let our friends vote as one man. Let them concentrate their entire strength upon one man and “put him through.” Let there be no divi sion IN OUR RANKS. The policy of this course will be read ily perceived by reflecting men, and it is useless to address any others. We have been proscribed as a party —we have been insulted, abused, slan dered and reviled by the hired minions of power. W e have borne all this with becoming dignity—conscious of the rec titude of our course, and knowing that a day of retribution was at hand. The day of vengeance “ draweth nigh.” The sth of October is the “ set time.” Then “Strike for your altars and your fires, Strike for the green graves of your sires, God and your u&tire land ! ” Let your revilurs know that you are not powerless—learn them to respect you ! This can be done alone by united action. Divided, we become powerless and contemptible ; united, we hold the balance of power in our hands ! Think of these things friends, and act according ly.—Athens Watchman. Ah Enigma. I am composed of twenty letters. My 3 20 13 is a number. My 13 47 2 is the name of a cruel Tyrant.

Mr. Hill lid say here that he had heard of such being the practice auj we have also heard it from disintkhested parties, who could have no motive for telling an un truth upon the subject.

Was that toast drank ? If so was it fluid deafening shouts of applause, or in smemu silence? Did this discretion reflecWity credit on the “Empire State of th .'South ?” Is if true, that when this same Scot tish Chief—this “ little übiquitous” in dividual—lived in Milledgeville, when ever the Governor and his advisers had important matters to discuss, it was made the duty of one of the private Secreta ries to look up the chimney, under the table, behind the window curtains, under senlps of paper, and in the cracks of the ceiling, for fear State secrets might in stupe way leak out ? Is the “ Intelligen cer man” a wizard, and can he elude pursuit by assuming Protean shapes? Is it true, that a certain very mighty individual, with more abdominal rotun- Jltvnhfin brains, who when sued by the State Road officials proclaimed himself the victim of political proscription, re cently hursted in the Intelligencer office? If he did, does that account for the vast amount of editorial filth which has for some time past disgraced the columns of that delectable sheet? ‘1 hose absorbing questions must be answered, or democracy is lost forever. An awful crisis is impending; muttering tllfmder is heard in the distance—the heavens gather blackness—the forked lightning flashes across the bosom of an angry political horizon, w hich threatens to sweep away’ every vestige of the pa triot’s hope. Rome was once saved by the cack ling of geese. Will not the Substance and the Shadow, emulate this bright ex ample ? ANTI-MUGGINS. Minnesota—Alien Suffrage A few days since we indulged in some re flections upon the evil consequences to the South, of Alien Suffrage in the free States. That it was a most dangerous element, be cause it might control the election of Presi dent and Congress, and therefore, the destr nies of the country. Since that article was published, we have seen the following sy nopsis of some of the provisions of the Con stitution of Minnesota, which has been adopt ed by the Black Republicans and Democrats of Convention. Upon the question of Alien Suffrage, the Democrats and B 1 k Rcpi cans co-operate most ecu Jially. The follow ing a p the provisions to which we have re ferred : Slavery or involuntary servitude shall ne ves exist in the State—that the liberty of the press shall ever remain inviolate—that the trial hy jury shall extend to all classes a’ law—and that no religious or property test shall ever be required to qualify a manfrom holding office or voting. Every male person of the age of twenty one years or upwards, belonging to either of the following classes, who shall have resided in the United States one year, aud in the State four months next preceding any elec tion, are to be entitled to vote, as follows: White citizens of the United States.— White persons of foreign birth who shall have declared their intentions to become cit izens comfortable to the laws of the United States upon the subject of naturalization.— Persons of mixed white and Indian blood who have adopted the customs and habits of civilized lift. Persons of Indian blood re siding in the State who have adopted the lan guage, customs and habits of civilization, af ter an examination before any District Court of the State, in such manner as may be pro vided by law, and shall have been pronounc ed by said Court capable of enjoying the rights of utizwuskip within the Slate. These provisions should attract the atten- 1 tion of Southern men ; for they are at war, not only with the pi tu iples of the Govern ment and the Const! mi in, tint they are es pecially antagonistic to the South and hot institutions.— Chronicle if- Sentinel. M aterial for Makixu National Democrats. —We have long known that a good National Democrat could bo made out of most any kind ot material. A full-blooded, life-long Abolition ist answers quite us well as anything or any body else. All he has to do, is to Call himself a Democrat, aud ho is forthwith taken by the hand and baptised in the new faith, and either given an office, or put in the liue of promotion. The following from the Lynchburg Virginian il lustrates the truth of our observation:—Knox ville Register. “To judge from the loud professions of devo tion which the Democracy are constantly making to the rights and interests of the South, one would suppose that there never was such a pure and immaculate party. The idea of having to do with a Free-soiler in a political sense, is one that their Southern organs would reject with the ut most vehemence. •‘That we may see how far such a claim is sup ported by facts, let us adduce a few modern in stances.” The Representative just elected to Congress, as a Democrat, from Nebraska Terri tory is an old Michigan Eree-soibr, who voted, while a member of the Michigan Legislature, to instruct Gen. Cass to support a law excluding slavery from the Territories. “The Democratic candidate for Congress in Kansas is ex-Governor Ransom of Michigan, who advocated the Wilmot. Proviso in his mes. sago, and opposed Gen. Cass for the Senate be cause tho latter was not sufficiently free-soil in his notions. “The consul recently appointed to Aspiuwull by the President—C. J. Fox of Michigan—was at one time the Editor of a free-soil paper in that State and a leading advocate of the Wilmet Pro viso. , “These aro throe instances only from one State.

We understand that a deep game is now being played hy the Democratic leaders, in order to defeat Trippe and elect Bailey. The plan is something like this—to tradeon the enthusiasm for Hill, by swapping off Brown with Americans for Bailey. They feel sure of Brown’s election, therefore they think they can spare twenty or thirty Brown votes in each comity in the District, if they can get that many Americans to agree to vote for Bailey, on condition that an equal number of Democrats will vote for Hill! Now, we caution the Americans a gainst all such trading, swapping or splitting tickets. You have no surety, whatever, that those who make such offers will not cheat you badly, if you listen to their propositions. They will play any trick to get your votes, hut will not stand up to their part of the contract. 11 they did, you have nothing to gain by any such traffic, but everything to lose. Let Americans then be wary and vote the regular American Ticket, the whole ticket and nothing but the tiofcet, for Governor. ('( and legislature and if we ure beaten, of w hit-h we have no ‘em, we shall have the e<insolation to know that defeat brings no dishonor. ■touts Suspensions. The recent suspensions ot the Banks of Philadelphia and Baltimore, is attributa ble, mainly, if not entirely, by well-in formed commercial men, to the over trad ing and speculating in lands in the West, by merchants and other classes of the community. For example, a Western merchant goes to Philadelphia and pur chases say $150,000 worth of gt >ods, ships them to their destination, makes rapid sales, and immediately invests proceeds in lands, leaving the jobber and seller in Philadelphia and Baltimore to wait till he can realize on his lands, or until compelled to pay by due course of law. (Os course such a system will re-act npon the Eastern cities engaged in trade with the West. But New York and Boston markets are not so influenced, being sup ported chiefly by the trade of the East, North, and South. Consequently, we are led to believe that the present panic in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and the cities South as far as North Carolina, which are intimately connected with Philadel phia and Baltimore, will not in the least affect our markets in Georgia. Besides, our Georgia Banks are now in the sound est possible condition to meet any crisis in financial affairs. They owe nothing to Northern Banks, and have little or none of their funds on deposit in the lat ter institutions, at this season of the year. And as Cotton begins to come in, they will be able to offer the usual facilities on good bills, although prudence will dictate that on speculative paper they will be stringent, for a short time. — Party Credulity. --The Constitu tionalist affects to believe the misrepresenta tions of its correspondent “Oconee,” touch ing the speech of Mr. Hill, at Cool Spring, Wilkinson county, in preference to believ ing the statement of Mr. Hill, on the very point at issue, that of Democrats travelling over the State Road free of charge, with a cross on their hats to designate the dead heads and Brown men. Mr. Hill has an swered such misrepresentations in such a way as to have caused the Editor of the Constitutionalist to have withheld the epi thets “contemptible and unfounded,” when applied to Mr. Hill, if there had been a spark of manliness left in his bosom. Joe Brown’s Tyranny ! Poor Men not allowed to be Jurors !! The Dahlonega Signal has a communica tion from a “Voter,” stating that the Inferi or Court of that county, on revising the Ju ry-box recently, threw out the names of all persons who were unable to pay their taxes last year, and the executions against whom were sold at public out-cry at the court house, a few months since, and that the In ferior Court acted in this matter by order or direction of the Hon. Joseph E. Brown, then Judge of the Circuit. This correspondent thus speaks of tbedis- Iranchisemeut and debarring of the Ameri can-born citizens from the Jury-box for the crime ot poverty ! “Is not this a pretty piece of liigh-handed oppression upon the poor working men of our county ? This is the law passed by a Democratic Legislature of Georgia! The poor American born, who is unable to pay his taxes, shall not have the right to vote or io serve upon a jury—while thousands of lousy, thieving, cut-throat, foreign felons, are enjoying those privileges every year I The Know Nothings have never been guilty of such infernal foul play and oppression as that. Now, freemen, will you—can you vote for this man Judge Brown, after his coming to Lumpkin county and directing the Inferior Court to throw out of your Jury boxes the names of your poor citizens—ma king your “honest poverty” a crime ? But through accident, the Judge has lately be come rich, and he, no doubt, has all at once acquired a great disgust for poor white folks ! But to this Democratic law. How the Judge in his wisdom could discover that the poor men, whose tax fi. fas. were sold at pub 'ic outcry, were for this reason debarred from serving as Jurors and voting, is a puzzle to me. Does lie mean that the mere matter ot being in debt should cut a person out of of his vote and kick him out of the Jury box ? If a debt to the State should thus disqualify a man, would not a debt to an in dividual do the same thing ? Ido not see why it is that J udge Brown thinks it so much more a sin to owe the State than to owe some honest neighbor I But perhaps, Mr. Editor, you can tell me, as I am not skill ed in such villiauous aud oppressive code of politics as this. VOTER.” --—--**- Dr. Slappey’g Communication. This document has elicited unqualified commendation of all honest men, who hate the appearance of tyrany on the part of a J udge of the land. Dr. S. is a gen tleman of wealth and influence who has heretofore acted with the Democracy, but who cannot give his support to little loseph of “ no-si r-ree-bob” notoriety.— He will vote for Hill and use all his in fluence to defeat the overbearing and ty rannical Judge—who is not willing that a poor man should serve on the Jury, because he is unable to pay his taxes.
