2 ffterklq tonina. A'';/?. I 3BS*V JEwb IffiV' ••'t\ ATLANTA, JUNE 5? 1856? Public Meeting in Coweta County. The attention of the reader is directed to the proceedings of a meeting held in Coweta Coun ty, sustaining and commending Mr. Brooks’ chastisement of the abolitionist riumner. The Two Thirds Rule The “two thirds rule" by which the choice of a candidate was regulated in former National Democratic Conventions, is often referred to, and it being at hand, we this day present it to our readere. This rule was adopted in 1832, at the Convention held in Baltimore. It was reported to that Convention by the Hon : W. K. King, of Alabama, and has been a rule of all subsequent conventions, up to the one now convened at Cincinnati. “Resolved, That each State be entitled, in the nomination to be made of a candidate for ths Vice-Presidency, (the nomination of the Presi dential candidate bad already been made by acclamation,) to a number of votes equal to the number t» which they will be entitled in the Electoral College under the new appoint ment in voting for President and Vice-Presi dent, and that two-thirds of the whole number of votes in tbo Convention shall be necessary to constitute a choice.” The Republican & Discipline. The * Editor’s happy retort to our notice of his elegant and chaste effusion that appeared in the Republican A Discipline of the 23d. inst., commences as follows: “Byway of a finale to the bandying between ourselves and the editor of the above paper, (the “Examiner”) we have but little to say.” So much for the beginning ; and the end proves most conclusively that the,“/i'i«/e” of the “bandying" on the part of that model of pro priety will establish his reputation for a keen ness of observation, and an acuteness in making discoveries, unsurpassed by any of his compeers this side of Mason & Dixon’s line. We give him due credit for his industry in prowling about to ascertain our whereabouts as speci fied by him. All we shall say is, that we thank a kind providence we are never caught in his company. It has always been a rule with us to associate only with those who “see themselves as others see them,” and to visit places where we are certain not to be bored with the pres ence of individuals who value themselves at one price but who would be certaip to sell at another. Swan’s Alabama and Geoigia Lotteries. The schemes for June the 26th, and July 10th, which appear in our advertising columns, must attract ths attention of those who woo the" fickle goddess, Fortune, through Swan’s Lotteries. They are, by far, more tempting than any we have yet seen presented to the pub lic ; and the July scheme, particularly, carries with it a novelty that, even with the dread be fore us of offending some of our readers, we can not refrain referring and calling public atten tion to. Oh 1 for some Madame Swett, or fa mous Magician, to whisper into the ear of some poor honest fellow in our good city of At lanta, the fortunate number, and whether it will be odd or even. By the way, there Is one thing connected with these Lotteries of Swan A Co., of great interest ts the public, and that is tho certainty that all prizes drawn, will be paid. The firm is as reliable os any in the Union. Flight of Robinson- This notorious abolitionist, who swaggerod over the territory of Kansas, bis pockets full of pistols, and with Sharpe’s rifle always at hand; who bullied and blustered wherever he went; and who was looked upon by his compeers as a sort of dare devil or fire eating supporter of the bud cause in which he was engaged ; our readers were long ago advised, had "cut out" or, in other words, had ran away upon the first approach of danger, leaving his constituents in the lurch. It is said too, that he made his wife bear papers, documents, Ac.,, upon her person which he was afraid to carry himself. What a patriot in the cause of free niggerdom ! He would not only commit treason himself, but in volve his wife also, in that treason. One good, honest, patriot, could put to flight, any time, a hundred such traitors, Like Sumner, they would take ijthe lash, andwAme, and whine while it was being inflicted. The Sumner Affair. Perhaps from the whole vocabulary of abuse there cannot bo found any thing to equal the following—which we copy from the “New York Day Book”—being a part of Sumner’s speech in tho United States Senate, and for which he was "gulta perchad" by Mr. Brooks. “With regret I come again upon the Senator from S. C„ [Mr. Butler,! who omni-present in this debate, overflowed with rage at the simple suggestion that Kansas had applied for admiss ion as a State, and with incoherent phrases dis charged the loose expectoration of his speech, now upon her representative, and then upon her people. There was no extravagance of the an cient Parliamentary debate which he did not re peat, nor was there any possible deviation from truth which he did not make. But the Senator touches nothing which he dees not disfigure with error, sometimes of principle, sometimes of fact. He shows an incapacity of accuracy, whether in stating the consititution, or in stating the law, whether in details of statistics, or diversions of scholarship.” “Ha cannot ope his mouth but out there tliea a blunder.’’ But it is against the people of Kansas that the sensibilities of the Senator are particularly aroused. Coming as he announces, -from a State;’—ay, sir I from South Carolina—he turns with lordly disgust from this newly formed com munity, which he will not recognise even as a ‘body politic.’ Pray sir, by what title does he indulge in this egotism ? Has he read the his tory °f the State" which he represents ? He cannot, surely, have forgotten its shameful im becility J rom slavery, confessed throughout the Revolution, followed by its more shameful as sumptions for slavery since.” Such abuse heaped upon a venerable and dis tinguisued Senator, and so wanton an attack upon a State, that, duriug the Revolutionary war, so patriotically maintained the cause of the colonies of America in their struggle for freedom from British 'tyranny ; and whose sons exausted so much of their treasure, and shed so much of their blood in that sacred cause; could only have emanated from the foul tongue and black heart of such a loathsome thing, as the vile abolitionist, Sumner. Call him a Senator.' or even a man .' Why the only faculty that prevents his being classed with the things that crawl is his ability to talk and walk ! Massachusetts, that once hon ored commonwealth, forfeited all claims to re spect, as a Sovereign State, when she sent Sumner to the Senate. But now, in attempt ing to sustain and sympathize with him, she renders herself meanly contemptible even to her own citizens. Whig National Convention- We invite the attention of the Whigs of Georgia, who, thus far, have maintained a n independent and neutral attitude; refusing to co-operate either with the Democratic, or “American” party; to the following remarks of the “National Intelligencer,” on the course to be pursued by the “Old line Whigs,” in the coming Presidential campaign. After earn estly urging the bolding of a National Conven ■ tion, the editors proceed to say: WHIG NATIONAL CONVENTION. “The National Intelligencer earnestly urges the holding of a National Convention to decide upon the line of policy to be pursued by the “Old Line Whigs” in the coming Presidential campaign. It closes an extended article in favor of such a course with the following ob servations: We trust that this subject will be taken in hand by the Whig press and the Whig party in the several States, and that effective measures may be speedily devised for the assembling of a National Convention. Though the candidates who shall be severally put in nomination by the “Democratic," “American,” or “Republi can” party may not be in all respects to the liking of “Old Line Whigs,” yet they may be permitted to exercise an intelligent choice among such candidates; and it is not unworthy of consideration that owing to the independent support which the Whigs would give to a can didate thus selected, they would be committed to his political fortunes only so far as duty and patriotism might seem to require at their bands. “And it is anisng the additional advantages of such a position that the facts, whether their united choice fell upon one or another of the candidates severally proposed for their accep tance, would not be in itself of so much intrin sic importance as the unity and harmony of action which, continuing to exist after the exerciso of each a discretion, would enable them to combine their forces for the purpose of aiding and abetting whatever political meas ures their judgment might approve, or resisting and restraining whatever principles and ten dencies they might decmittheir duty to con demn. Such a position, if not one which promises political emolument, is one of honora ble independence, and for that very reason of commanding moral influence. The Whigs, if they could not altogether direct and control an incoming Administration in whose elevation to power they had co-operated, might at least, by their counsel and their votes, exert a salutary impression on the general line of policy which it would adopt. Nor would it be the first time in o«r civil history that a small mi ■ority had shown itself potest for good in res training the excess of party and arresting the progress of a political radicalism, which now, as before, boldly avows its purpose to cut loose from the harbor of conservatism.” We do not, for a moment doubt, that were a Convention of “Old lino Whigs” to assemble for the parpose of determining which of the three eaudidates for the Presidency they will support—the Democratic, American, or Black Republican—there would be scarcely a differ ence of opinion on the subject, and that their choice would be the democratic candidate. If, as is avowed by the National Intelligencer, the choosiag between -he three is to be “potent rot GOOD IN RESTRAINING THE EXCESSES OF PARTY, AND ARRESTING THE PROGRESS OF A POLITICAL radicalism,” there can be no doubt as to where the “Old line Whigs” will be found in the con test now so fast approaching. Before the country, and before the world, the democratic patty is found advocating and maintaining every conservative principle embraced in the Constitution of the United States, and is found opposing every innovation upan these princi ples, and every assault upon the rights of the States, their demestffi inatitatious, or of civil and religious liberty. Can this be said of the “American Party,” as it is go called? Wil] not every candid man admit that in no rgyugt is it so, of a large, an overwhelming, majority of that party, beyond the limits of the slave States? And if this be the case, how is it possible that a Convention of “Old line Whigs” can ever determine to give aid or countenance to the nominee of the “ American Party," par ticularly when the great body of “Old line Whigs” are South of Masou and Dixon's line ! We will not insult the “old line whigs” by supposing that they can deliberate for a mo ment up m the policy of supporting the Black Republican candidate. And yet, we can sec little difference between Northern Know Noth ingism, and Black Republicanism. Indeed we look upon them .as already amalgamated although they have not been able to settle down us yet, upon the same candidate. Proposition however, after proposition, has been made to this effect, by leading -American Presses” at the North, to the Black Republicans, and it remains yet to be determined whether these propositions will be accepted. With such lights os these before Southern “old line whigs,” we doubt not, as before ob served, the determination to which they will come, at their Convention, should it assemble as recommended by the National intelligencer Wc would almost be willing to submit the elec tion of President to the conclusion which the old line whigs of the South at that convention will arrive. But the country will soon see what poistion will be occupied by all conserva tive men, and true patriots. Until then the peo ple as well a i the press ‘will have to be pa tient,” and we trust they will also “be well-do ing.” Free Soil Impudence at the Cincinnati Convention. Whether we look at Free-soilism North or South—in the first, where it puts on no disguise but boldly sympathises and acts with the . abo litionists ; or in the gjpond, where it in vain .strives to hide its hideous head, and assumes the disguise of “Bentonism”; we are sure to see a display of arrogance and impudence, and in fact, a total disregard of all the decency and courtesy, that, for time immemorial, has mark ed popular Conventions of the people. There is no parallel for Freesoilism, in this respect, save in your rank, out and out, abolition, and women’s rights' meetings at which Garrison, Fanny Wright, and others of “ like kidney” arc west to figsre; and where, to be courteous or decent, is looked upon as cowardly and crim inal. This, too, appears to be a growing, or spreading spirit, the result of a cantaminating influence, and has recently shown itself in a quarter, and by individuals, from whence and whom, the Southern public had the right to expect conduct widely different. We allude to the scene on Monday last in the National De mocratic Convention, at Cincinnati, where the Bentonian delegates forced themselves into the Hall, and amid much confusion, and “fighting," as it is reported by the telegraph, took seats among the members of that body. In our fl pinion, all of their outrageous and disgraceful conduct, is to be attributed to free-soil influ ence ; and, coming from Missouri, as it did come, it only affords additional evidence of the truth, that where anti-slavery opinions are em braced, or even tolerated, law, and order, and the Constitution, are no barriers to disorder and rowdyism. And, in the case referred to, we doubt not, nothing but the dread of physi cal force, which, after Mr. Richardson’s remarks, the Bentonian delegates knew would be applied to eject them head and heels, forced, amid the shouts and derisions of the spectators, them to withdrew from the Hall. It is an old sayiug that— “ Large streams from little fountains flow.” And all reflecting men will agree with us in the conclusion that Benton’s disappointments and chagrin, have done more to advance free soilism in M issouri, a slave State, than any and everything else. But for the “ border ruffians,” as they are termed by their opponents; but for their devotion and patriotism, aud the counte nance which is given to them mainly by the de mocracy of that State; Missouri would ere long be in the possession of free soilers and ab olitionists, and thus that “entering wedge,” of which so much is heard and said, would pene trate deep into the heart of the South. How important then is it for our people to act with vigilance in suppressing and putting down all who, in any manner or form, encourage free soil or abolition sentiments. There appears to be no receding on the part of those who take the first step, politically, or otherwise, to sus tain a free soil sentiment, or a freesoiler. From bad, it grows to woise, until like the Benton delegates, with all their sins upon their heads, they would force themselves where their touch was deemed contamination, and where their presence was loathsome. Keep us, we pray, from all such I Secretary Marcy’s Letter oV Dlsiulteal to Mr. Crampton.

From the Georgia Banner Eztra. Meeting in Coweta. At a large and enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of Coweta county. Georgia, met in the Court House on Thursday evening the 29tb inst., Col. John Ray was caller! to the Chair and Dr. W. W. Bruce requested to act as Sec retary. The Chairman explained the object of the meet to be to approve of the castigation of Mr. Sumner by Mr. Brooks for the unbe. om ing and indecorous conduct of the former to wards Southern Senators. On motion of Col. Wm. F. Wright, a Committee of five were ap pointed by the Chair to report business for the action of the meeting—which committee was appointed, consisting of W. F. Wright, James M. Dodds, Joseph T. Brown, E. D. McKinley, and J. L. Calhoun. The Committee retired, and during their ab sence Col. Jeff. R. SmKh'nfldresscd the meet ing. His remarks were characterized tty a warmth and eloquence worthy of the occasion. After which the Committee having returned, reported through their Chairman Col. Wright, the following PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTIONS : Whereas there occurred recently a difficulty in the Senate Chamber of the U. States, between Hon. Preston S. Brooks, a member of the House of Representatives in the National Con gress from tne State of South arolina, and Mr. Sumner, a Senator from Massachusetts, which grew out of a discussion upon the slave ry question, in which the said Senator from Afassachu tetts, attacked personally Senators Butler of S. Carolina, and Douglas of Illinois, and applied to them the following insulting similitude: “ That they had raised themeelves to eminence on this floor is championship of human wrongs—who though as unlike as Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, yet like this couple sallying forth together in ihe eame cause:” And in speaking of the Senator from South Carol.na, alluded to his chivalry in a sneering and supercilious manner—and applied to him these words : “ Os course he has chosen a mis tress to whom he has made his vows, and who though ugly to others, is always lovely to him —though polluted in the sight of the world, is chaste in his sight—l mean the Harlot Slave ry ! And whereas the aforesaid difficulty re- sulted in the said Sumner getting a “most glo rious thrashing ” at the hands of the Hon. I’. S. Brooks : Be it therefore— Resolved, As the sentiment and feeling of this meeting, That the remarks of the Massa chusetts Senator, were not only insulting in the highest degree, to Messrs. Butler and Douglas and the whole of the Southern Representatives and Senators in Congress, but a libel upon the South, unbecoming the dignity of a United States Senator, and meriting the severe, condign punishment he received. Resolved, That we believe Senator Sumner’s speech but gives expression to the deep rooted hatred of the Abolition and Black Republican Parly North—and that in holding their indig nation meetings in condemnation of the con duct of the Hon. Mr. Brooks, they are endors ing and encouraging the sentiments so express ed; and that it is the sense of this meeting, that for Legislative bodies and primary assemblies to convene and notice the castigating of a sin gle individual, is but a pretext to give vent to their abolition feeling—and that ssch action being taken at the North, is ominous against the South, and calls for corresponding action on her behalf, and the assembling of her citizens to justify the conduct of him who is so profuse ly denounced : That wc believe unless such conduct os Senator Sumner was guilty of, is thus met, it is but the prelude to a series of libels and assaults upon the institutions of the South, all directed to the great, desideratum of Black Republicanism, to wit, the final extermi nation of slavery at the South, even at the hazard of the existence of the nation. Resolved, That we love the Union of these States and hold it secondary in importance on ly to the rights and blessings it secures—“that so long as we can have equality in it, we are for it; but whenever it is made an engine to oppress us and a masked battery from behind which to assail our rights” or whenever we are required to yield np our property in our slaves or are denied an equal participation in the Territories—it then ceases to protect, but op presses—and our motto in such an event, is, to disrupt the last tie that binds us to it. Resolved, That while we are pained to see personal violence resorted to in our National Councils, and will justify it only in extreme cases, we believe that the Hon. Mr. Brooks' attack upon Mr. Sumner was apropos as to time and place—that he who digraces the Sen ate by low vileness, ought in turn to be dis graced in the Senate. Resolved, That so far from condemning the Hon. Preston S. Brooks for his conduct in this matter, we commend him and rejoice to see yet a living example of Old South Carolina Chivalry—and that althosgh Massachusetts may Lave degenerated from her once honored ancestry, that South Carolina has not—and to come directly to the point, to use a phrase in vulgar parlance—that Sumner “did not get a lick amiss, unless Brooks struck at him and missed him.” That not only the approval of this meeting, but the thanks of the Southern people generally, are due to Mr. Brooks for his promptness in physically repelling the slanders of a vile Representative whose fanatical con stituency require nothing less of him than in justice, falsehood and dishonesty. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be transmitted to Mon. Mr. Brooks, and the same be published in our papers, the “Georgia Banner” and “Independent Blade”—with the request that Southern papers generally copy the same. JOHN RAY, Chairman. IV. W.

From the Louisville Democrat The following received by Wednesday night’s mail, relates the particulars of a most deliberate murder: Horrible Affair and Suicide. Salvisa, Ky., May 27, 1856. On yesterday evening, between sundown and dark, Mr. Lewis Haleman, living abont three miles from this place, was metis the road about a half mile from his house by one of his neigh bors, Mr. A. B. Rickman and shot dead ; the latter approaching the former with a rifle and ordered him to stop, and at the same time presented his gun and fired, the ball taking ef fect in Mr. Haleman’s breast, who fell from his horse dead. Mr. Rickman turned, walked to his own house, which was but a short distance, bid farewell to some of his family, and made to the Kentucky river; passed his son-in-law’s house, and told him what he had done-, and sta ted that he intended drowning himself. He said he would leave a sign where his body could be found, and selected a place where he wished to be buried. This morning his body was found with a rope tied around his waist, and the oth er end tied to a row-lock of a small boat out in the river. Mr. Rickman was a man about 65 years of age; had a family, nearly all grown- He had been drinking for several days, and it is supposed that he was intoxicated when he did the deed. There had been some difficulty between them for some time past, but no one thought the matter serious; and the proba bilities are that, had it not been for whiskey, it would not have happened. Mr. Haleman 'was a civil, peaceable citizen ; as was also Mr. Rickman when sober. So much for grog shops E. IMPORTANTJROM MEXICO!' Another Civil War in Mexico. COMONFORT AGAIN'!’ VIDAURRI!: The Union of Niicvn Leon and Coahuila Ob- ’ jected to and Annulled! LANGBERG MARCHING AVGAINST VIDAVRRI WITH 4000 TROOPS.' An extra from the office of the Texas States Zeitung, published at San Antonio on the 19th inst., has just been received, in which we find the following highly interesting information : Eagle Pass, May 15. We learn here from reliable persons, that Comonfort has ordered Vidaurri to collect all the arms he had distributed among the different communities of his State and to deliver them up to the General Government. Colonel (now General) Langberg, is march ing with 4000 men against Vidaurri. The union of Cohahuila and Nueva Leon is annulled. Gen. Langberg has been nominated Com mandant General and Dr. Santiago Rodriguez, Governor ad interim of Coahuila. The latter has already published hie procla mation and appointed bis officers; among oth ers Captain Leal is Gefe politico of our next frontier District (Rio Grande). He was, how ever. arrested yesterday, together with the in dividual that acts with his Secretary, and es corted to Monterey. There is no doubt that Vidaurri will resist the order for the delivery up of the arms and the entry of Gen. Langberg and his troops, and that he is only temporizing a little, in-order to ascertain the feelings of the people and of pub lic opinion ; but that before long he will declare himself against Comonfort. He has, no doubt, a large majority of the citizens on his side, and we do hope here, that he will l>e able to sustain himself against the despotic misrule of the Central Government. New Orleans, May 28.—An extra of the San Antcr.ia Gazette, received by an arrival from Texas, publishes a letter from Eagle Pass, stating that it was reported there that Comon fort has ordered Vidaurri to collect and deliver up all the arms distributed by him. Gen. Limberg is marching against Vidaurri with 4060 men, it being thought tuat he will resist the orders given.
