We call particular attention to the following

cation of of Gov. Johnson tuis.tnt the pretty
calumnies, which have come swarming into ex
istence at thy close of the camp sign. It -ad
and circulate! Read and circulate! Let the
peop'e sec the truth, aud the slanderers be con
founded.
MACON, Sept. 18th 1855.
Dear Sir ; As various reports are circulated
through the N..’WH|»ap.‘rs and elsewhere, in re
gard to the sale of old iron of the Western A
Atlantic R Mid. an I also as t« the levy and sale
of the Carso/ the R >ad recently at Uiiattanoo
ga and as these reports reflect injuriously not
on y upon Gov. J >huson hut also upou youi
sell' as the Superintendent ol the Road. Will
you do me the I'avor to state the facts of each
case that the truth may be known and published
in regard to both.
Very respectfully, vour Ob’t Serv’t.
W. k. DkGRAFFENREID.
MACON, Sept. 18, 1855.
My Dear Sir : 1 haves’een th.' allegations t >
which you refer, and scarce’y thought them
wirtii u iticC but as you tiling they in ty be ex
exercising an injurious effect, take p.ensure in
giving you the facts.
The Rails which we are now taking up be
tween Resaca and Dalton, were sold to the
highest bidder, Maj. C. 11. Howard. I had sev
eral other propositions, but none so high as his.
It is true that in Febr-.arv. 1854, 1 wrote to
Mr. Willis, Engineer of tlie Thomaston Rail
R iad, that I would hear irom him before I mad.'
the sale. When we wto ready to take up the
Rails I opon-.d a corr.apo idence with some Iron
deale-s relative to the purchase these Rails, but
1 received only a few distinct proposition. I
recollect niw only two b isidcs Maj. II .ward
Oue was from Mr. T. R. B.oom who b.d 820
per lou. the other was from Mr. J. F. M.m*.
who first bld 816 50 and afterward * I think 818
Maj. Howard's bid was 825 payable in Colum
bus bunds, or $22 50 in cas". Mr Wells ac.
coinpanied Maj. Howard to Atlanta, and be
fore closing the trade I reminded Mr. Wells of
the promise I made him for the Thomaston
Comjiany. He seem 'd to attach no importance
to it, and I mippml that their project fir a
Railroad hal ben abandoned—G >v. Johnson
knew nithin r of my promise to the Tnomiston
Company. 1 alone am to blame for overlook
ing them is I d I. As soon as Maj. II iward
returned t > Columbia I received a letter from
M .J. D. Gray off ring 81(1 pier ton for the
Rails d -livered in Atlanta—this otter it apptars
w i-sfortfaeTuomaiiton Company. The very high
price off ivd f r old Rails which haveb.'en used
■ >r eight years under a hoavy trade, and the
time of tlie off t. being within three d ivs after
1 had closed with Maj. Howard gave it Iheap
p urance of a p ilitical inanceuvre undertaken
for the injury of Gov. Johnson. Why did they
want to buy* old Rails at 810. when new on ■s
ciu IK* h night at SSO ? the last b dug the
price (mid for those we are now laying down
and wny were they si'ent for eighteen months,
to'make their application within three days
after the sale had been effected 1 I have since
learn-si that Gen. Mims was acting in behalf of
the I'iioiniston Company, which, if true, leave*
them nothing to complain of for he made two
b Is. >u under the price at which the sale was
edb 'tel. But he this as it may. I only am to
ir i.n ■. th * G iv.-rnor knew nothing of the pre
v. ms co respo i le.ice with the Thomaston Com
pute. and I had forgotten it until I saw Mr.
Weils, their Engineer; in company with Maj.
H iward at Atlanta.

and there seems to be some probability that a
the end of it the county treasury Will be bank

ad to get pijy fur their services, they mint as

Receiver's Digest was forwarded to Milledge

ong ere this, to have notified the Collectoi
vhat amount he was to asses upon the Digest
vet more than tw*> in inths have elapsed, and
nothing has been heard from the Governor or
dis Comptrol.er. Iu the mean time no m >ncy
an l>e collected for county purposes, the treas
try is nearly empty and by the time cour
comes on. those who serve their country as jit
rars, will have to give the best proot of patrio
(ism, by servin ’it gratis. Usually the per cell’
to be assessed on tiie Digest is notfieil to the
Collector long before Court, and a sufficiency
of money collected to ni ?et all current expense
—but this being election year, the G-.vernoi
•ann it attend to such small ma ters. If th.
G vern ir baa no time to preform the duties o:

The Comptroller General authorizes us t<

Touching upon the late barbarities of the
know nothings at Louisville, the Union If Amer
can thus appropriately remarks:
“Some of the newspapers and newspaper cor
i-espondents, even at this late, day, are making
eeb’.e efforts to make the impression on the pub
ic mind, that the foreign population of Louis
ville are answerable for the bloody tragedy that
was enacted in that city on the day of the late
•lection.
••This is simply ridiculous. There are always
•'rcumstances attending every case, if they can
ie reached, which point unerringly to the truth,
io matter what may be said, written, or sworn
•n. For instance it is not presumable tliat a
landful of men of foreign b'.rth would literally
lefy the great State of Kentucky: that the natu
'alizcd citizens of Louisville being the weaker
iiirty, should d ■sire a personal difficulty with the
;now-nothings when they knew them to be the
Uronger party, and that in a personal conflict
’he weaker must inevitably stiff r. And farther,
n ascertaining the circumstances surround'ng
his case with a view to its correct solution, tin
inblic will naturally enquire, whose lives were
-iicrificed. and whoa’ property was burnt and
itherwiae destr >ye> ? Tuen, if any response to
'his interrogation made is, they find that nearly
’hcwhole number ofmen whose lives were taken,
v.-re citiz ms of forei :n birth, and that all the
■roperty destroyed was the property of citizens
■f foreign birth, they will begin to conclude,
n >st likely, that the know-nothings were the
assailants and resp n-ible for the horrid d.-eds
jommitted on that b oialy day. But they will
laturally extend this enquiry a little farther, and
•ie curious to know whose worn-n and children
were murdered on th it memorable occasion—for
■io one can suppose that women and ch Idren
formed any portion of the assaulting party;—
hen if they find that all the women and cuildren
who were murdered on that occasion, were the
wives and children of foreign bom citizens—
which fact we believe is undisputed’—these con
clusions will be irresistable.”

The Maine Election.
Tlie New York Tribune admits the facts
that the result of the election in Maine, “is a tri
umph of the party of Slavery and of Rum
made up as it is of tie congenial portions ol
ti.e late Whig and Democratic parties.”
Tue Tribune tries to find some comfort in the
statement that the Democratic candidate every
| where proclaimed himself to be hostile to the
! Nebraska Bill. It does not however tell its
J readers that the following extract Irom a speech
of iiis stood for weeks before the election, in tia
iniag characters, at the head of abolition tu
sii'ii papers:
j “Is there a man in this assembly who has ev

States, and immediately after the process is ac
complished, is taken to Timbuctoo, in Africa,
and lives and grows up there, a pagan in. sou)
and and cunnibal in appetite, and by some
strange accident, at the age of sixty, finds him
self here in a land he has uo memory of; among
a people whom he chiefly affects as goixl to eat;
by your principle, he is one to anticipate in the
rule of America. You respond,—but heshould
have re-sided here: by his absence he has render
ed himself unfit. That is to say, you abandon
your position of birth, and assume a new one ol
residence. Well, we will follow you there.—
Suppose lie resides in the United Slates all the
time, but lives in some valley of the Hockey
Mountains, or in some unexplored corner of the
Mammoth Cave, where he hears nothing of our
civilization, laws, usages, and education; in a
word, is a savage; he lias resided sixty years in
the United States, and is he one to part.cipatc in
the rule of America'!
You respond, it is not enough that lie have
residid here; lie sl.ou'd knew our laws and poli
cy and be acquainted with the genius of our
republican institutions. 'That is. you abandon
the position of residence and assume a new one
of knowledge of our institutions. Well, we
will fol'ow you there. Suppose he be deeply
versed in our history, and profoundly read in
our policy, but be so enamored of all despotism,
has little confidence in the many, that he would
prefer a government of aii Enqieror or of ii
Czar. He is one who should rule .America.
You respond, it is not enough that he knows
our institutions; he should love them. Ah, there
you have it; you have found the true American,
the man who ought to rule America. Hein
whose heart the altar of the country's erected
and before which altar he renders the oblations
of a pure and perfect love. No matter what
ruck, island, kingdom, or continent first nurtured
his b<dy, if the red leaves of his heart have
written on them the holy words of Liberty; ii
those glori' US syllables echo and reverberate
through the chambers of his soul like solemn
peals of music through the columned aisles ot
some sacred catliedral, till the man stop and
tremble aud palpitate with a voiceless sentiment
of worship; then he is a true Am riean aixl ought
♦o participate, if it be true that Amerieatis

The Massacre in Louisville.
The Rev. Mr. Curran, a Methodist Clergy
man, at Jeffersonville, Indiana, has written a
letter to Gov. Wright, from which we make tlie
following extract.
Tli<’ scenes in Louisville on bloody Monday
have never Ixen fully portrayed. From my
chamber window, on that dreadful night, I wit
hessed the conflagration of the German dwell
ings. heard the screams of women and children,
the rattle of fire-arms, and the shrieks of the
wounded nd dying ; and. oh. God forbid I
should witness such a sight again, even at such
a distance; tlie recollection sickens me, and fills
my dreams with fearful images. And for these
atrocities a portion of the professed religious
press of the country find an apology. The
Western Christian Adv.icatethe tollowing week
gave the Know Nothing version of the whole,
throwing tlie blame upon the poor foreigners,
without uttering one word of censure agaism
their brutal murderers; ami the editor himseli
an Irishman 1 Has he sold himself to the ene
mies of his eountrymen ? How else can we ac
count for his editorial course?
There was once a J udas and an Arnold, shock
ing instances ol perfidy and iniquity, which we
ha<l hopi-d would never find a parallel; there
may, however, turn np another traitor.
It is now manifest that tlie war upon the
Catholics is only an incident in thts great
movement; it is rung in to catch the fanatic.
That portii.n of the City of Liuisvillc where
tlie greatest slaught' r oi' men and women and
destruction of property took place, contained
no Catholics; they were Protestants, but they
were industrious, peaceable citizens, contribu
ting to the pnxiuctive wealth of tin- city and
county, paying their taxes without a murmur,
aud sustaining the laws. One man, who was
injured so badly as to die since, was a member
of the German Mothodist Church. He was
merely passing from one p’ace to another, when
the mob met. seized and inflicted deadly blows
upon him while he was pleading for his life.—
And Know Nothing ministers and editors stand
forth as their advocates and apologists; and il
one man raises his voice, er writes a line to
procia m the truth, these clerical bullies mount
uim aud deal him deadly blows.
Base and Slanderous Charge.
It has been left lor the Rime Fourier tn per
petrate the foulest of all slanders that have yet
been heaped upon the head of Governor Johnson.
Let any man read tl.e following editorial from
ti e Rome Courier oi tlie 11th inst, mid say ii
the parly is not des|ierate indeed, that resorts
to such mlamous slanders.
WHAT A GOVERNOR.
Jn > T. Boyd, under sentence of death as prin
cipal in the second degree for the m ini r of A.
M. Robinson, in Columbus. Ga.Jias been resp:-
| led by 11. V. Johnson. This man Boyd, after
his trial, broke jail in Columbus and when
he was retaken in Florida did his best to kill the
iffi> er and his possee who went out to arrest him.
He fired 6 or 8 shots and wounded one or two
of them. Now this man who has been gniltv
of two murders, (one in Maeo.ia few years since.)
and who has dehberatelyjnttempted the or six
more, is respited by Governor Johnson—under
what pretence it is, that this act oi* clemency is
done by his Excellency, we are not informed
but it is to be presumed that the Governor is
buying Boyd's vote or influence, since ho has re
cently Ix’eome so scrupulous in meteing out jus
tce to Mark A. Co iper.
It was Wright that broke jail, and was arres
ted in Florida. Now, this iinsenipnlons party
edit' r knew when he penned this infamous a*-t’i
le that Boyd was in Priso-, md cou d nomore
vole tor Governor Johnson man the editor ol
the Rom.- Courier should d-> the Govenior justice.
A'et see how dark tlie insinuation!—shamjl
sham.-l— Federal Union.
A Nice National Party.
The folowng are specimens of the kind of
platform adopted by regular Know Nothing
meetings all over the State of New York.—
I'iiey are resolutions which were unanimous'v
ad iptcd at the "Senecca C >unty American Con
vention." and published in the central organ of
the Order, the Albany Rcgigter, of the 11 th
inst :
Resolved. That the platform of the Ameri
can party, adopted at Binghamton, meets our
miqua.ified approval.
Res >lved, That we are in favor of a jul
cious. constitutional I’r >hibit->ry law to pre
vent intemperance: pauperism and crim *.
Resolved. That »ve are opposed to the Ne
braska swind e and any more slave territorv.
and that we will not n minute men who are not
willing to act in accordance with this resolution.
Truly, a nice party for National Democrats
to b.d.mg to. "Come out from her, mv peo

The steamer Baltic has arrived, bringisg <®e
week's later news from Europe.

The War.
Simpson and Peliseier telegraphed on tire 3d
inst.. that n thing new had occurred at Sevas
topol or Tehernaya.
The Russians were again threatening an at
tack.
The Allied army was kept completely on the
alert, and parties remain constantly under
arms.
The question was whether the Russians would
attack the Tehernaya lines or Balaklava Hai
dar A’alley.
Simpson says the R’issians are actively bridg
ing the harbor. fortifying the North side, and
have received reinforcements.
Nothing has been received from the Black
Sea.
A Significant fact. —At a meeting of the
bar of Washington, to honor the memory of
Judte Cranch, J. M. Carlyle. E->q. said:
•• J udge Cranch wa« an earnest and constant
student of Holy Writ. His Bible (lying on
the bench) bears marks of his own pen. on every
paste, from Genesis to Revelation. He was a
Judge after the order of Hale; and it might be
said of him. as far as one man could remark
of another, day alter day, for more than half a
century, lie took his p’ace on the judgment
seat, -void of offence toward God and man.’”
Straight-out Know Nothings.—Some of
the Know Nothings in Georgia repudiate the
action of their State Council in leaving out
the religious plunk of the national platform.
At a Know Nothing meetingheld in Marion.
Georgia, on the 11th inst.,among the resolutions
unanimously adopted was the following:
"Resolved, further That we renounce tlie
State Council lor having, as we consider, proved
recreant to the native American cause by ex
punging from their platform the Btli article of
ll.e national platform; as we are unable to dls-
I ngu'sh the dff ■ e ice betwic i a native and a
foreign born Catholic.”
Third District.—The Dalton Expos'tor ex
presses itself confident of the election of Smith
in the Third District, hitherto considered doubt
ful. Buily, the democratic candidate succedrel
last election over Trippe by fifteen votes. The
changes this year will be in favor of Smith, as
follows : In Harris. 200; in Spalding. 100 :in
Upson. 100; in F.ke, 150: in Bibb, 100; in
I’ayl’T, 50. Os these gains it feels confident.
The old time Whigs. butnowanti-Know Noth
ings, will give all of the above, this election, in
avor of Smith, while no one can perceive where ■
Trippe can anticipate any gain, unless, perhaps
a small one in the counties of M nroeand Butts;
and as Baily is in the field in Butts for the Leg
islature. little can be expected by the K. N.'s
from that county.
Hear Young Carroll.—John Carroll, Esq.
the great-grandson of Charles Carroll, of Car
rolton. who is now running on the Democratic i
anti-Know Nothing licket in Howard county,
Maryland, made his first speech on Saturday
last at a meeting of both parties. After speak
ing of the position of parties in the State and
the country, he declared to the Know Noth
ings;
“I am a Catholic; but if you must pro
scribe do not commence upon so humble an in- 1
dividual as myself. Go buck to the past, and

The Vultures.—A letter from the Crimea
tells the following tale: "Vultures are very nn
i merous in the Crimea. They smell the powder
anil await the end of the fight to throw them
selves on their victims. Alter one of the recent
combats, an English officer was found on tin
battle field, who had just expired, pressing in
both his arms one of these birds of prey, dead,
like himself, and which he liad crushed in a lasi
