ATLANTA, MARCH 6, 1856.
Hon. Robt. Toombs, will accept onr thanks
fora copy of his Boston Lecture on Slavery.
a©’* Wm. 11. Seward, and of
Ohio, arc named in connection with the Repub
can nomination for the Presidency.
The Schoolfellow— A popular periodical
for children, published by Dix & Edwards, of
New York, has reached us. A hasty glance at
its contents authorizes us in pronouncing it a
model of its kind, and deserving the patronage
of families.
Dicken’s Household Words,
For March,has been received, and has a rich
and varied table of contents exclusive of “Hol
ly Tree Inn” which is added to the number be
fore us. “Household Words” may be secured,
in regular monthly visits upon application and,
remittance of three dollars to Dix & Edwards,
publishers, 321 Broadway, N. Y.
Executive Signatures.—The Governor has
signed the act incorporating the “Atlantic and
Gulf Railroad Companyalso the act incor
porating the “ Timber Cutters' Bank of the
city of Savannahalso the act authorizing the
« Inferior Court of Chatham county to levy and
collect an extra tax for the building of a new
jail, and to issue bonds, &c.
Our Representative, Mr. Harris.
We have been charged with misrepresenting
the position of Mr. Harris, on the Kansas ques
tion. We are not conscious of having < lone so,
as we made onr statements from the record be
fore us. If, however, it can be shown from the
reports of his speeches from which we gathered
our information, that we have misconstrued his
language, we shall take pleasure in correcting
any prejudicial impressions our article may have,
unintentionally, created. We opine, however,
the record will bear us out in our remarks.
Drugs and Medicines.
The card w>f Messrs. Haviland, Risley &
Co., Augusta,, Ga., will attract attention of
dealers and cor.sumers. The house is well
known in every section of the State, and has
for a long time enjoyed the confidence of the
entire Southern country. The branch of
the establishment in Augusta has been lo
cated there since our earliest recollection,
and our youthful impressions of remedial agents
of uny sort, are inseparably connected with
the name of the firm. We hope they will con
tinue to prosper in future as they have ii» times
past, confident as wo arc, that they have well
merited the patronage they have received.
What Paxson Brownlow Thinks of the
Convention.
As Brownlow seensa to be the grand high
priest of the K. N.’s of Tennessee, lie may be
quoted as authority to the brethren in Georgia.
Os the convention which nominated Fillmore
and Donelson, he is reported, in its proceedings,
to have used some powerful language. From
the report of the proceedings which we find in
the American Organ, we learn that, in response
to a call of ayes and nays upon a motion to lay
the motion to adjourn the convention to the 3d
of July, upon the table
“ Parson Brownlow said, he would voto aye,
and did so, becar.se he believed, with the writer
of a telegraphic despatch to the Pittsburg con
vention. that the American party was with the
Black Republicans.”
Tho. e journals at the South who approve the
nominations, are thrown into rather an unenvi
able position by this flat-footed declaration of
their Parson’s, since it is generally understood
that men are put forward, by such bodies, as
embodiments of their principles, and if Brown
low is true, Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Donelson
must be Black Republicans. Hew is it, gen
tlemen ? Do you stand by the decision ?
Judge Douglas.
We extract tbc following paragraph from a
letter written to the Richmond Examiner by
Jas. W. Singleton, of Ohio, it will be seen by
the confidential lone of the letter, that the friends
of Mr. Douglass will urge his claims, and that
he will interpose no obstacles to their doing so.
If Judge D. is nominated we shall yield him a
cordial support, knowing as we do that ho is
entirely sound upon every question affecting the
South. Let there be no prejnding, however;
but rather let ns study the greatest good to the
country, and then, if Douglass or any other of
die present aspirants is found best calculated to
bring out the full strength of the party, and
strengthen the wavering out of it, at the South
let his name be run up, and let us stand to him as
oue man. We want a man who will unite the
South aud bring out the full strength of the
party at the North, and no matter who he U,
the nomination of such an one will command our
unqualified approval and support:
The extract I have quoted contains (unin
tentionally of course) an imputation not only
tqion the personal and political honor of Judge
Douglas, but upon the integrity of the national
men of the North, and. in my estimation, both
he and they should be vindicated. M hat is
the idea conveyed by the remark cited ? It is.
that Judge Douglas has originated, sustained
mid established a measure in the legislation of
the country, the consequences of which he- is
afraid to meet by becoming a candidate for the
Presidency. It implies political cowardice. It
in effect declares, that he has raised an excite
ment in the country which has given strength
to free-aoilism, and that now, when in appear
ance his party is environed by difficulties, he
wants to skulk aud dodge the blows that might
be struck at him if standing at the head of his
party in a national political battle—that he
tears to risk his political fortunes upon an issue
made by himself, aud that be desires to wait un
til the political horizon shall have cleared up
before he will risk himself upon the troubled
ocean of n Presidential contest.”
" Had be be, n permitted to occupy iu quiet
the position he had chosen for himself, and had
not his motiv s been so injuriously questioned,
I believe he would under no circumstances have
consented to the use ol his name for a Presiden
tial nomination. Butasitnowstands.be has
as I conceive, no alternative but to leave him
self ia the bauds of big friends."

“A Duel."
We notice a paragraph going the rounds
credited to the Rome Courier, chronicling a
duel, which is said tojiave occurred at, or near,
Dallas,'in Paulding County. We are inform
ed by a gentleman from that plaeethat no such
an occurrence ever took place there, but that the
particulars given of the reputed duel, apply in
some degree to a bloody rencontre which occur
curred some two miles from the town of Dallas,
in which Jones, attacked a man by the name of
Bone, while the latter was at work in his field,
and after a desperate fight, which was witness
ed by several accidental spectators, was killed
by Bone, who is reported to have acted upon
the defensive in the commencement of the dif
ficulty. The origin of the difficulty seems to
have been Bone’s disputed possession to a piece
of land claimed.by Johes, but adjudged of the
former after a legal investigation of their titles.
Not content with the judgement of the court,
Jones took the law into his own hands, and at
tempted forcibly to eject Bones, from tho prem.
ises. Tueae particulars come from what we
deem a reliable source and are published in jus
tice to parties interested iu the melancholy af
fair.
The Similitude
There is a strong “family resemblence” be
tween the Pittsburg and the Philadelphia Con
vention —a resemblance that is, to say the least
of it, a remarkable coincidence. They both
oppose the proclivities of the present national
administration, and if not for the same reason,
are certainly doing each other very essential
service in their respective designs. When it is
universially conceded at the .South that the pre
sent administration is all that can be desired
of it, in what pertains to thejgeod of the entire
country, without geographical distinction; when
it is remembered that we have never had a mes
sage which stood out more boldly and decidely
for the threatned rights of our section ; it is
not to be wondered at, that the Black repub
lican Convention, which did not deny its sec
tionalism, should promulgate such a declaration
as the following:
“Third, feeling that the present national ad
ministration has shown itself to be weak and
faithless, and that its continuance in power is
identified with the progress of the slave power
to nationalize supremacy with the exclusion of
freedom from the territories and with increas
ing civil discord, it is a leading purpose of our
organization to oppose and overthrow it,”
But When Southern men meet with North
ern men and profess to represent a National
party, and resolve, in effect, precisely the same
uncompromising houtility to the administra
tion, we confess it does look a litt’e odd, and
significant of an affinity of sentiment naturally
suggested by such affinity of purpose. It is
rarely the case that two trees of different species
produce the same fruit.
fi@",<loßAcn Greeley, in one of his letters
from Pittsburg, Pa., to his paper, the N. Y.
Tribune, during the session of the Black Re
publican Convention, in Pittsburg, says ;
“The naked fact that citizens of several slave
States chose to attend this Convention—as vol
unteers, if you please—and place their names on
its roll of delegates, will pave tho way for a
freer proclamation of the long repressed anti
slavery sentiment of the South.”
Day after day the evidences are accumulating,
that by “some conjuration or mighty magic”
the fceljjigs and sentiments of the Freesoil men
of the North, are being gradually and impercep
tibly infused into southern localities. The
President of the Black Republican Convention
is a Maryland farmer, and he stated tbathc ►. p
resented large merchantile interests in Balt,
more.
During the meeting of the Conventions—the
Republican in Pittsburg, and the Know Noth
ing in Philadelphia—telegraph messages were
interchanged. On the first day of the meet
ing of the Black Republican’ the following
dispatch was receiver! and read by the Chair
man :
“ The American party are now thoroughjy
united to raise the Republican banner. No
further extension of slavery. The Americans
are witli you,”
This dispatch, taken in cougcotion with the
sentiments proclaimed in the Know Nothing
Convention—the ignoring o( the twelfth sec
tion—and the excitement which prevailed dur
ing the sessions of the Council and Convention
of the Know Nothings, may be eonsitered as
expressing the views cf a majority of those bo
dies,
The Black Republican party claims to be
national, and boasts of having delegatee n at
tendance from several Southern States—and
yet it is a Free soil and Aboliou amalgam in
politics, and of course thoroughly Anti-Ne
braska.
'l’he Know Nojhing party claims to be na
tional, and yet is composed of a heterogeneous
compound of political principles, proala.-ery
and anti-slavery.—one portion entirely opposed
to Kansas,and the other at all times urging
captious objections to the act. aud although
nominally approving it, yet seeking convenient
opportunities to detract from the sound repub
lican principles embodied in it.
No person doubts tine Black Republican pro
clivities of a considerable portion of the Know
Nothing party ; aud it is this principle that at
taches them to the interest of the party headed
by Giddings and Greeley. Southeriijnen min
gle in the Know Nothing Conventions at the
North, and the influence that is exercised upon
them mav be discovered in the opinions of Botts
in the columns of the Washington Organ, in the
course pursued by the combined councils in
Richmond. Va., and ip the recent attendance of
Southern delegate's at ths' Blaek Republican
Convention in Pittsburg.
Know Nothingism is the silent. sleepless
and untiring agent employed to subvert the
institutions of the South. It is the political
chloroform employed to paralyse the suscep
tible feelings of our people, to prepare us for the
keen blade of the Black Republican sur. eons
who arc making ready to operate upon ns.
The Southern people are compelled from ne
cessity. and the overpowering force of the evi
dences which are daily presenting themselves, to
calmly survey the position and affiliations of the
Know Nothing party. Can they find anything
in them that claims their sympathy and sup
port ? Are they not bound in duty to them
selves, their section, and their country, to repu
diate a party vhose principles are so doubtful,
checkered, and dangerous ? We know what
the South has been —we see the fruits of the
introduction of this northern tree in our midst
-let us not wait until the political Upas has
deadened every southern instinct and feeling j
among us.
It was a wise remark when uttered, and as ;
truthful and pointed in its application now that'
we should "fear the Greeks, even when they ■
bring us presents." The nomination of Mr. ‘
Fillmore aud of Mr. Donuelson. by the Know j
Nothing, is an artful device adopted to betray |
the Southern people. Tiny are not the expo- .
nents of any of the great leading principles re
garded at ti'ii time as of paramount importance j
to the South, but the candidates of an iucon- |

Griffin, Ga., February 29,1856.
Located with Capt. Mangum, enjoying the
comforts he is'wont to provide for travelers who
“stop” with him, and having nothing to do to
employ the time until the train arrives, LTiave
conclude i to jot a line or two, giving'an account
of my “bobbing’s around” since IJeft tho office.
As you arc advised I left Atlantaton the 13th
ult.. (just early enough to miss my Valentines)
un i reaching Madison that night, sojourned for a
day with friend Campbell, at the Planter's I found
Ma it on a beautiful place, made up principally
of Dry Gcods, displayed conspicuously upon the
shelves of ha adsome stores, and upon the persons
of a host of school-girls, who, with their hoops
and flounces, go fir towards filling up the place.
Friday I located at tho “Planter's,” kept by
friend Bridges ii Augusta. My limited time
prevented that attention to tho improvements of
this beautiful city, I would liked to have given.
I have only room to chronicle a very pleasant ac
quaintance with the business men of that place.
Mr. Wm. H. Tutt, Druggist, whose car I I
sent you, does the Drug Business in handsome
style, and certain! keeps a pretty establish
ment-
D. B. Plumb" & Co’s Drug oitablishmen" is
handsomely arranged with all tho modern im
provements, many of the handsomest of which
originated in the inventive genius of Mr. Plumb,
whoso taste in such matters is not approached
by any thing I have seen during my trip. He
is thoroughly acquainted with every branch of
his business, and can be relied upon by those
who order Drugs from Augusta.
On the evening of the 17th, after a fast trip
over tho Carolina Road, I found myself at the
Charleston Hotel where tho fodder and drinka.
bles are justgood enough for the most fastiduous
and the bills are terrors to attenuated purees.
N. A. Cohen, Jr., keet s the best Clothing es
tablishment in the city, and those visiting Char
leston will find at tho “Carolina Clothing Depot,’
a gentleman prepared to give them “fits” in the
latest style and at prices “to suit the times ,”
F. Dupont, dealer in Paper-Hangings, Win
dow Shades and Landscapes, &c., keeps a hand
some stock, and deserves the attention of those
interested in his line of business.
Mrs. A. G. Parker keeps a beautiful stock of
Millinery, and tho’ not so well posted in all the
jimcracks belonging to her department of trade, I
saw a multitude of pretty things, and would say
to dealers and other interested this is the estab
lishment to make your purchases at.
J. Knobeloch, H. L. Tinley and Heriot &
Holmes, in their respective commission Houses,
are the men for Northern Georgia producers.
To the Mercury and Courier, I am indebted
for attentions which materially assisted me in the
prosecution of my business.
I regret I have not time to prepare a mire in
teresting letter, else I might give you a descrip
tion of my trip from Charleston to Savannah on
board the steamer Gordon, and the incidents and
pleasant associations of my first salt-water voyage.
Arrived in Savannah, I stopped at the Marshall
House, of every department of which, I cannot
speak in terms of too much praise.
To the gentlemen connected with the Geor
gian, the Republican, and the Morning News
offices, I am much indebted for the notices of the
Examiner they each gave me. I shall always re
member their many courtesies and will he re
joiced to reciprocate, either in person, rr to their

Kansas Meeting,
Messrs. Editors ; The following preamble
mid resolutions were adopted by the Atlanta
Company of Emigrants for Kansas Territory,”
at a meeting held by them at Ilavden's Hall,
on the evening of the 29th nit.
The meeting was numerously attended by the
citizens—ladies mid gentlemen—and speeches
delivered by Messrs. Jones, Bell, Cowart mid
Glenn.
From the manifest interest evinced by the
citizens in favor of the movement, it is confi
dently expected that Atlanta will be fully rep
resented in Kansas, and will do her full duty in
the support, of Southern rights iu the coming
contest.
The following are the officers chosen for the
Company:
Batt Jones, Captain.
Mauoenics A. Bell, Secretary.
Daniel Pittman, ) Commkte< . 011
Batt Joses, f F .
Margenius A. Bell, )
Tne Committee on Finance will cont.ol all
money committed to their care, in a manner to
dispel even a shadow of a doubt as to its faith"
fu! application to the legitimate purposes and
objects expressed in the above resolutions.
It is hoped that a liberal contribution will be
given ip aid of this Company—for the peace,
equality, and prosperity of our common country.
Action ia now the spell word of patriotism—let
the whole South act, and her rights and her
honor shall be respected :
Whereas. The admission of Kansas Territo
ry into the Union as a free State, will destroy
the balance of power between the several States,
which are already in an excited condition of
aggravated discussion from which the destruc
tion of the Constitution, the subversion of the
government, and all the horrors of civil war are
likely to ensue; and whereas, The safety of our
southern institutions, and the peace and quiet
of ail truly patriotic, liberty-loving, and law
abiding citizens are endangered, and in our
opinion, dovmcd to suffer materially or be to
tally destroyed by the intermeddling and ag
gressive policy of abolition fanatics: and where
as, The geographical situation, and the adapta-
I tion of its soil to Southern institutions and
I Southern products, combine to make it a state
I in which slave labor can be profitably and beu-
I eficially employed by all the citizens of the
South: and whereas. The first settlers and
original pioneers of that territory were slave
I holders, and so unanimously declared themselves
I immediately after the organization of said Ter
! ritory. and believing, as we do, that they are
the only people who can justly determine the
domestic institutions of that territory; be it
therefore.
Resolved Ist That each member of this Com
pany will lawfully exert himself to the utmost,
to secure' the admission of Kansas Territory into
the Union as u slave State.
Resolved 2nd, That individually, and as a 1
company of true patriotic men. who have the I
safety and honor of our country and her iusti- ■
tutions at heart, we will do all that wecan de to i
prevent the admission of said Territory into the i
Union as a free State, a result to be greatly de- i
ploixd by all the good and true, and especially |
by all genuine Southern men.
Restored 3d. That ns the geographical situa
tion. and soil of said Territory, are naturally I
and peculiarly adapted to slave labor, Southern ■
institutions and products, that it does by right |
and every principle of justice, Mong to the
South—aud to the South alone, and that we'
will resist at all hazards any uulawf .I attempt'
to make it a free S tatu.
Resoloed 4th, That we highly commuM and
approve the brave eons of Missouri, for the gal- j
lant stand and unfliching courage, which they
have taken and evinced, in defending Southern
rights ; and we now declare our firm and unal
terable intention, to stand by her side in aiding
the people of Kansas Territory in enforcing their
laws, and in the maintenance of the laws and
constitution of the United States.
Resolved sth, That the city papers be re
quested to publish the above proceedings.

A Special Message.
The President yesterday transmitted to Con
gress the subjoined Special Message, recom
mending an appropriation for certain improve
ments in the defences of the country and
military preparation, which may be regarded
as prudential and worthy of attention, without
any reference whatever to any difficulties or
impending trouble with_any foreign nation:
Washington, February 26, 1856.
To the House of Representatives
of the United States:
I herewith transmit and recommend to the fa
vorable consideration of Congress a communi
cation from the Secretary of War, asking a
special appropriation of three millions of doll
ars to prepare armaments and ammunition for
the fortifications, to increase the supply of
improved small arms, and to apply recent im
provements to arms of old patterns belonging
to the United States and the several States.
Franklin Pierce.
Walhington, February 25,1856.
Sir: Improvments in arms and munitions of
war having been recently perfected, . hereby
their efficiency has been much increased, it
is very desirable that these improvements should
be applied as far and as soo as practicable to
the arms on hand, both in the Government
arsenals and in the possesion of the States.
Although our present supply of arms is as
good as, and probably superior to, those of the
same date of manufacture of any other nation,
we should have, in the use of them, in their
present condition, to cope at disadvantage with
others who may have been beforehand with us
in the actual application to their arms of the
recent improvem nts.
It has been our policy heretofore to carry
on gradually and slowly the work of prepara
tion for military efficiency, both offensive and
defensive; and in pursuance of this policy the
estimates of the War Department, from year
to year, have been limited to the execution of
such work only as accorded with the ordinary
means of our armories and arsenals, with but
a small force of operatives in employment.—
The regular estimates last submitted to Uoh
gress are based on these considerations. In
view, however, of the propriety of assuring at
the earliest practicable period, military efficien
cy as regards armanent and munitions, (we
have it abundantly as regards men,) it seems
proper that moic active arid vigorous measures
should now be adopted: that we should increase
the capacity for production and the force in
employment at our armories and arsenals; t..at
we should prepare more rapidly armaments
and ammunition for our fortifications; that we
should increase our supplies of improved small
arms by the manufacture of new ones and by
the alteration of those of past dates of fabri
cation, including both United States and State
arms, and that we should provide ample sup
plies of ammunition, accoutrements, and im
pliments for the immediate and most efficient
use of the whole.
In order to effect this, it is necessary that
more than ordinary means be placed at the
disposal of the Executive, and I respectfully
suggest and recommend that application be
made for an early appropriation of three mil
lions of dollars for increasing the military effi
cincy of the country, to be applied, at the dis
certion of the President, towards the objects
before stated.
I have the honor to be. very respectfully,
yonr obedient servant, Jefferson Davis,
Secretary of War.
To the President.
Mr. Buchanan and the English Press.—
We arc well persuaded, says the Pennsylvanian,
that all the late statements of the English press,
in reference to Mr. Buchanan’s persona! course
on the questions at issue between Great Britain
and the United States, are either wilful fabri
cations or ignorant misrepresentations. The
fact that these statements have been adopted
on this side of the Atlantic, and have occasion
ed a good deal of uneasiness in all circles, has
induced us to make inquiries, and the result is,
onr full conviction that they are equally un
founded and absurd.
It is not true that Mr. Buchanan has had
high words with Lord Clarendon, on either of
the two questions at issue between England and
the United States.
Os course it is not true that because of these
alleged high words, Mr. Bnchanan failed to at
tend Lady Palmerston's reception.
And, finally, it is not true that Mr. Buchanan
has conferred with Sir Henry Btilwcr as to the
settlement of the Central American question.
The relations of Mr. Buchanan with the pres
ent English ministry do not lead us to expect
that he will be called upon to demand his pass
ports. The firmness and decision of Mr. Bu
chanan in the difficulties now existing between
this country and Great Britain have never been
abated, nor are they manifested in that spirit
which would precipitate war without first ex
hausting all the methods that would continue
an honorable peace.
Affairs with England.
The New York Journal of Commerce com
ments sensibly upop the relations existing be
tween the United States and Great Britain. —
We copy the annexed from that paper
•• The true-hearted people of the United States
proud of the great nation from which they
sprung and from which they derived the spirit
of their institutions, and intent only on a noble
and generous rivalry in industry and art with
the mother country—whilst they have one tone I
for those who habitually misrepresent us. cordi
ally reciprocate the friendly sentiments uttered
at the Manchester Chamber of Commerce, and
entertain a horror of war with England, which
owes its existence largely to a feeling of respect
and regard entertained towards the other nation
We speak advisedly when we say further, that
the present cabinet, in presenting its desire f r
the recall of Mr. Crampton and the dismissal
of certain consuls, has been governed solely by i
the determination to make such an example of
a public and open violation of our own laws
and sovereignty by a foreign power, as will pre
vent its repetition hereafter. The correspon
dence on this subject, of which the English
press undertakes to speak when it declares that
apologies sufficient to supply ten empires have
been made, has not been published, and the
press, therefore, is indebted chiefly to Lord
Clarendon, who had before said that Mr.!
Crampton had neither intentionally, nor acci-!
dentally violated our neutrality act, for its im- \
pressions as to the kind of apology actually
made. We suspect that it will turn out that
the supposed apology partakes more of the na-\
tore of a defence and support of Mr. Crampton ,
than of an apology—founded on a supposed dis
, ference between inducing men to leave our ter-I
; ritory to be enlisted elsewhere, and their ac nal
I enlistment for foreign purposes in this country ;
and that the administration felt compelled by a [
I decided course to show that such a claim, on !
the part of a foreign nation, was wholly mad
missable. If England had any such right, so
bad Russia, and so had Franee: for towards
belligerent; there must be equality in conces
sions on the part of neutrals, and tires we might
be drained of our effective forces, and ept're.'y
stripped of our means of defence, by states which !
ultimately might force us to engagp in their
own conflicts. It is a rule of common H-nse,
and must therefore be a rule of public law,'hat
every nation has a rigb' to interpret its own
Jaw^ —to judge wl o are offenders to them,— :
to protect itself agaiu.-t their infraction, —and i
that an attempt to .r-juken the effective forces:
of a country without its consent, is a violation
of its sovereignty which cannot be overlooked,
especially at a time when powerful nations are
embroiled in a sanguinary struggle, and thg
supply of men to one, either openly or covertly,
might be deemed such cause of offence by the
other, as to produce hostility towards us. The
administration, therefore, in our view—having
decided, solemnly, fairly and justly, that our
neutrality act has be n violated under the form
of an evasion, likely, if not rebuked, to be re
peated,—will be expected by the American
people to take that course towards our friends!
on the other side of the Atlantic, which wil
show that wc intend to maintain the sovereign
ty of onr own territory, and honestly execute
the laws municipal aud public, against violators
of them within our own interpretation of them,
but in no spirit of nnkindness towards Great
Britain, and not forgetting the mighty struggle
in which she is engaged, and flu forbearance
which its existence recommends. We suspect
that this duty is supposed to have been rendered
the more imperative in the present case, from
the impression that seemed to have arisen, at
tribute 1 to remarks alleged to have been made
by Mr. Crampton, that our laws might be vio
lated with impunity.”
JKJyAU accounts concur in stating that the
Cenrtal American controversy with Great Brit
ain is in a fair train for settlement. A new
treaty, it is said, will be formed to take the
place of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty.
But the Crampton enlistment business has
au uglier look.
[Ffom the N. Y, Herald’s Washington Correspondent,
28th. ]
The message of the President, recommending
an apprpriation of three millions to brighten
up our armor, is regarded here as emphatically
a war message, when taken in connection with
Mr. Mallory’s official proposition to construct
ten additional war steamers. It is clear that
the government is preparing for something
extraordinary. Mr. Marshall moved to refer the
message to the committee of the whole and
have it discussed at once. He wished to know
if we were to have peace or war. Two thirds
of our people, including the great west, are
always benefitted by war, and congress will
cast a corresponding vote.
It is understood This evening that Crampton
will be dismissed. In that case, intercourse be
tween England and tho United States will be
suspended.
Judgiug from the debate in the senate yes
terday on tho resolution of Mr. Mason, chair
man of the committee on foreign relations, call
ing for the correspondence in reference to the
enlistment difficulty, which was participated in
by a large number of senators, there are serious
apprehensions entertained of a rupture between
the two governments. *
■JGen. Cass spokefwith great feeling and earn
estness and declared emphatically that Cramp
ton should have been dismissed months ago.
In compliance with the resolution adopted by
the Senate yesterday, a large quantity of cor
respondence on the enlistment matter will be
sent in as soon as it can be prepared. This
correspondence will produce a sensation here
and in England.
The general confidence already entertained
that our government is in the lie
fully confirmed by the documents.
It may be confidently asserted that on the
enlistment difficulty, as soon as the documents
shall have been published, we shall also have
the preponderance of enlightened opinion in
Great Britain in our favor. I apprehend that
preponderance will weigh too heavily for Lord
Clarendon to stand up against it.
[Washington correspondence Journal of Com
merce, 25th.]
I learn from good autholity that tho steamer
brought to Mr. Crampton a copy of Mr. Mar
cy's despatch, who thus became informed of
that which he previously disbelieved or doubted
—namely, the demand of our government for
his recall.
My solution of these facts is, that when Lord
Clarendon came to n ad this despatch, he found
! its statements to be so positive, and its argu
ments so conclusive, that he was staggered and
confounded, and had to refer to Mr. Crampton
for explanation, concerning facts which must
have been concealed from his knowledge ; for
it is not otherwise possible to account for the
extraordinary language which ho employed in
the house of lords. He undertook to give as
surance that Mr. Crampton’s conduct had not
been merely blameless, but honorable, and had
received from Mr. Marcy the declaration that
the latter was perfectly satisfied with what Mr.
Crampton hud done.
* * * Lo:d Palmerston nwffe parliament
under very critical circumstances. All England
feels profoundly humilated by the state of her
relations with France and Russia; and to pre
vent unneccessary complications, it isquitelike
ly that he may condescend to misrepresent, as
he certainly has done to conceal, the nature of
the controversy between Great Britain and the
United States. He beyond all other men
living, is responsible for the present difficul
ties.
The Central American fraud is of bis con
cocting. He carried the foreign enlistiment bill
through parliament, and is the responsible min
ister under whose direction it was carried into
effeet in the United States.
I cannot but think, therefore, that the silence
of the Queen upon the subject of American af
fairs, and the strange perversion of facts in I-ord
Clarendon’s speech, are nothingfcut make shifts,
devices for temporary effect in the house.of com
mons. If so, I predict that he will but stave
off for a month or two a fatal resposibility,
which he will have to encounter whenever the
correspondence between the two goverenments
comes to be published. Wc see how the peru.
sal of the Central American documents com
pelled the London Times to repudiate and den
ounce the conduct of its government in that
matter. I cannot but believe that, when the
Times comes to read the enlistment documents,
it will condemn, not les positively, the conduct
of the British government in this affair, and
laugh to scorn the idea that Great Britain is to
quarrel wi .h us merely because our government
will not tolerate the British minister in officia
ting as his government's reuniting agent gener
al in the United States.
Riot between American and

Among the numerous vessels at present lying
in the Fate Docks, Cardiff, are some sailing un

men of the two parties, it was taken up by
their companions and countrymen on either side.

Georgia Legislature.
Correspondence of tho Savannah Georgian.
Miu.edgevill, Feb. 27.
House of Representatives.
Dr. Phillips moved a reconsideration of the
bill rejected yesterday to incorporate the North
Eastern Railroad Company. Carried.
The bill was subsequently taken up, the
amendment of Mr. Terhune, appropriating
$200,000 in aid of the work, stricken out, and
passed.
On motion of Mr. Harris, of Fulton, the
House reconsidered the bill passed yesterday for
the relief of parties legally divorced. The bill
allowed both parties, the offending party as well
as the party suing for the divorce, to marry
again.
Mr. Lewis, of Hancock, moved to reconsider
so much of the journal of yesterday as referred
to the rejection of a bill to endow the State
University. Messrs. Lewis, Thornton and Mill
edge advocated the motion with much zeal
and ability. Col. Milledge said that he had
received a letter from the venerable President,
Dr. Church, representing the library building
as iu immediate want of repairs, or rather con
struction. The number of volumes was very
large and of great value, but the building was
in a ruinous condition, and liable to be destroyed
by fire. Reconsideration prevailed.
COMMON SCHOOLS AND UNIVERSITY ENDOWMENT.
At length the House has done something to
wards establishing a general system of common
schools. They passed to-day. by a vote of 105
to 6, a bill drafted by Mr. Lewis of Hancock,
and reported by the Committee on Education.
It consolidates the present Poor School Fund
aud appropriates the nett earnings of the State
road, after all its liabilities arc paid off, to the
education of the youth of the State between the
ages of eight and eighteen.
The House also passed the reconsidered bill
endowing the State University. It shall re
ceive $35,006 for the first years, and $24,000
annually thereafter, on condition that it educate,
free of charge, one student from each county in
the State. Both these bills were transmitted
forthwith to the Senate. The glory of the pas
sage of these bills belongs also, in a great de
gree, to Mr. Lewis. He was supported by
Messrs. Thornton, Milledge, and Ward but he
was the father of the bills, and all his energies
were directed to secure their passage.
TUB SAVANNAH RIVER APPROPRIATION BILL.
The committee to whom was referred the
Savannah River Appropriation, bill, reported
this morning a substitute, appropriating $ 10,000
and recommending its passage. The amount
was reduced because of the many, and in some
instances large, appropriations made by the
present legislature.
Col. Lawton made a few happy and sensible
remarks in favor of its passage.
As your readers are well acquainted with the
claims of Savannah upon the legislature for this
donation, the urgent necessity lor the removal
of these obstructions, not lor the interest of
Savannah alone, but for the whole State, it is
not necessary that I should give you a synopsis
of Mr. L’s speech. All is told in a few w ords;
the bill was rejected by six votes.
BILL TO SELL THE STATE ROAD.
Ou motion es Mr, Crook, the regular order
was. suspended, and the House took up the Sen
ate bill to incorporate a company, to be allied
the Western i Atlantic Railroad Company,
and to transfer the State Road to said Com
pany.
Mr. Terhune, of Floyd, moved that it be in.
definitely postponed. The motion prevailed.—

Who are Americans now 1
We have heard of no efforts for more than it
year to find out “ who struck Billy Patterson.”
A more difficult problem has taken its place:
“ What is Americanism ?” It is strangcTthat,
in a country where all are Americans, no one
can be found who can tell “ who is an Ameri
can.” Every locality has its peculiar notions
on the subject, and when the various conflicting
opinions are compared they are found to be
almost as numerous as the States of the Union.
Three national councils have been held by
delegates, all of whom claimed to understand
the subject thoroughly ; but on each occasion,
when they came to compare notes, tach man
had cause to doubt his own identity as an
American, or to regard his brother delegates as
impostors.
Tne two first councils were acknowledged
failures, leaving the question as unsettled us be
fore. The delegates to the lust council were so
engcr to have this matter settled satisfactorily
that they anticipated their regular day of meet
ing, and spent four days in a most laborious
effort to ascerrain who they were and what they
were ; in other words, who were “ Americans ”
and what was “ Americanism.” The result was
an abrogation and repudiation of all their for
mer charts and fooleries and tomfooleries, and
the adoption of fifteen new planks as the true
tests of “ Americanism,” and consequently it is
now to be understood that whoever can stand
on all these planks is a genuine Simon Pure
“ American ;” “ Provided nevertheless (in the
language of the fourteenth plank.) That a ma
jority of those members present at any meeting
of a local council when an applicant app! es for
membership in the American party, may, for
any reason by them deemed sufficient, deny ad
mission to such applicant.”
It would look, from this, like the question
was still open, and, after all, that it is to depend
upon the vote of a majority of each local coun
cil “ who arc Americans.” This is bringing
the privilege of “ Americanism ” to a new and
a strange test. A native-born citizen, devoted
to the constitution, scarred all over with wounds
in defence of his country, prepared to subscribe
to the fifteen articles of the last creed, may be
told that he cannot be an “ American ” unless
five out of nine of his neighbors who constitute
the majority of the council present, not one of
whom ever aspired higher in the service of his
country than to claim a lion’s share of the spoils
and to distinguish himself in denouncing and
slandering better men than himself, shall consent
that he may enjoy the privileges of “ American
ism ” and bear the name of an “ American."
It will be observed that the applicant may
“ openly avow the opinions and principles ” laid
down in the platform and may “subscribe his
name ” to it, but this council of inquisitors has
the right, “ for any reason by them deemed
sufficient;” to exclude him from the party.
If the majority of the council present hap
pen to have prejudices against long noses, or
red heads, or large feet, no red
haired, or large-footed man can be an “Amer
ican.”
If the majority happen to have special use
for all the spoils within their locality, and de
sire no competitors from without, they can
readily exclude every dangerous applicant as a
barbarian not fit to be an “American.” 1
If the majority happen to be men having no
special sympathy wiili honesty, they may shut
the door against au honest applicant, and de
cide him unworthy, on account of his honesty,
to be an “American.”
On the other hand, the majority at the next
meeting may be on the other side of the several
question indicated, aud they may exclude all
snub-nosed, black-haired, small footed appli
cants, and so on, reversing the test of “Ameri
canism” at each successive meeting, according
to the accidental whims, caprices, or perjudices
of the majority present. And let it not be
forgotten that every “local council” through
out the Union is vested with this singular pow
er of determining who shall aud who shall not
be Americans. Wc apprehend that the last
national council has proved as complete a fail
ure as its predecessor in their effort to define
Americanism, and to determine who arc Amer
icans.— Washington Union.
Nomination of Millard Fillmore
and A J Donalson.
Under the ordinary alignment of parties,
which extend in the days ol Whiggery and De
mocracy, the nomination of their respective
standard bearers, was regarded as an expression
of the political sentiments of the great Nation
al bodies which those parties represented. Mr.
Clay, for instance, was the exponent, and a
great one he was, of the leading principles, of
the Whig party of this whole Union. Mr.
Polk held the same relation to the Democratic
party of the country. In those days, pin-til's
were distinguished by their principles of public
policy.
We do not propose, at this time, to enter into
an examination of the relative merits of ti e
gentlemen who have been nominated for Presi
dent and Vice President, by the American or
Know Nothing Council or Convention, in Phil
adelphia.
The questions wc desire to Call attention to
arc the political principles of the party that has
placed Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Donalson before
the country ? Are they the same in Georgia,
as in Massachusets • 1 In Alabama, as in Ohio'!
In Tennessee, as in Maine? If they arc not
harmonious in sentiment, and their platform of
principles and nomination of candidates arc not
cordially responded to, what exhibit does the
party make r They have no national princi
ples, because they have no national existence.—
Mr. Banks is regarded as a good American in
Massachusetts, and yet no true southern man
should desire political affiliation with him.
If the Know Nothing party had u national
existence, the recent nominations would be le
gitimate enough; but they have none, and theii
vaunted party dignity or importance, has dwin
dled down to a factious opposition to the Demo
cratic party.
It must be apparent that the nomination of
Mr. Fillmore, aud Mr. Donalson, can have no
other object than to excite a factious contest
when the most important questions to the South
ern people, and the integrity of the. Union, are
seriously involved. At a time when every
Southern heart should pulsate in Unison, we are
to be estranged and buffeted upon the raging
billows of partisan strife. We did entertain the
hope that the vast interests at slake in the ap
proaching Presidential contest, would have uni
ted the entire South, but the spirit of faction
has otherwise determined, and it now devolves
upon “ the old defenders of the Constitution"
to rally, in the jieerless majesty of their might,
and successfully defend the integrity of their
principles, and transmit to their children the
blessings of our Government and country.
We stated some time ago, that it was the
policy of the Black Republicans, to run a pop
ular candidate for President in the free States,
and that it was not improbable that the Know
Nothings would vamp up candidates to run in
other States, where there mieht be some little
hope of success; and as the Democrats wi re in
the field, against both parties or factions, the
hope was indulged that the election might de
volve upon the House of Representatives, and
by a cemproinisef in some way, a Black Re
publican Know Nothing might be elected Pres
ident.
It is to effect this ulterior purpose, that Mr.
Filmore, and Mr. Donalson have received the
nomination. In view of ti e result contempla
ted—the election by the House of Representa
tives—we invoke the opposition of every friend
of the Sonth, to the nominations of the Know-
Nothing orginizition in Philadelphia.—Augus
