The Capitol.
IS M1LLZDCEVILLE THE PROPER LOCATION?
This question arose in 1804, the Capitol
being then at Louisville, in the county of
Jefferson. It was decided by the Legisla
lure in the affirmative. The public offices,
archives, Ac., were accordingly removed to
terms op subscription. 1 Milledgeville in 1807, the interim being oc- _

The following eloquent extract is shea
from the published speech recently de>. er-
ed by the Hon. A. II. Stephens, at Sparta.
It is gratifying to see a life long Georgia
Whig even at this day willing to do justice
to the patriotism of the Northern Democra
cy. Others, like him have at last bad *helr
eyes opened. But we fear it is too lata!
Time was when, had Mr. Stephens and tue
Southern Whigs united with Southern Dem
ocrats in holding up the hands and strength-
eng the hearts of the few faithfal among the
Northern Democracy, in their conflict with
the allied forces of Wbiggery and Free-soil
ism, the result of the conflict might have
been different—the present political aspect
and outlook how infinitely different! But

thai 02,189 dwellings were required for their

Subdivided into seventy counties, this new
Territory embraces within its limits the
exclusive of that in store hv our Road.
From Chattanooga down to Etowah, the de
pots are all full to bursting. On the 9th,
there were received at Calhoun 2,000
bushels, and the hands could not knock off
their loading till 11 o’clock at night. Maj.
Young, the Agent, of Calhoun, thinks that
from his depot alone, he will ship 100,000
bushels during the season. To-day, firr full
traius will be doivn, and we suppose each
car will contain 130 sacks.
The rush of this description of freight has
been unprecedented, caused, as we learn,
by the offers of New York Millers to give
$1.25 for all wheat delivered at Depot by
;he 10th, and at Charleston and Savannah
by the 15th of this month. We fear, in

A Sample •t that “ Strang American
Feeling.”
We were told, a few days ago, that a pa
per was circulating among our city subscri
bers for the signatures of those who desired
to cripple the Intelligencer by a withdrawal
of their support. From what we heard of
this portentious display of “Americanism,"
and the formidable length of that bit of pa
per, we had prepared our minds for the
worst and had made arrangements to re
trench our expenses and thereby be better
prepared for the shock. The suspense in
which we were kept was cruel, for we were
not allowed to know what the verdict in
our case was to he, for three whole days,
and besides we were debarred the American
privilege of being present at our own trial,
as well as a sight of the bill of indictment.
Yesterday the “lifted thunder" fell and
to-day we mourn the loss of three whole
subscriptions to our “ valuable ” Daily and
three more to that crack sheet, the Weekly
Intelligencer. We make the erasures more
in sorrow than in anger, for we judge our
departed friends read mighty little of any
thing that is safe for them to see but what
they gathered from our labors. They lose
more than we do by the operation, we are
sure, for while their six subscriptions were

If then the location they fixed upon he
inappropriate to our condition in 1855, why
should we hesitate about removal? The
State is not bound for all time bv an act of
the necessity of answering his speech by
answering it himself; and when he at
length sat down, it rested a matter of doubt
in our minds what xvere his opinions on the
subject of immigration, or whether he wag
in favor of religious iibercy or intolerance.
We haxe but one fault to find with Mr.
Stone’s speech, and that is to ho attributed
to a long and successful practice at the bar,
and but a limited acquaintance with politi
cal discussions. His speech was essentially
that of a lawyer's—to ignore one portion J
the testimony while ho elucidated the oth
er—xvas the main effort of a discussion of
forty-five minutes. The resolution oi the
Philadelphia Platform in favor u religious
liberty was heralded forth with ample com
ments, whiie a resolution of the same Plat
form, proscribing Catholics was suffered to
lie uunotieed. Perhaps had the gentleman
been allo.xed to finish his argument we
xvould have heard something of it.
The speech of Col. Howard xve honestly
think completely established the unconsti-
tutiunality, on the Catholic test, of the
Know Nothing platform, and dissipated in
to thin air the spocious pretext so often set
up, that upon the same principle that a par-
tizan in politics opposes our holding differ
ent opinions on governmental policy, a
Protestant may legally withold his vote from
a Catholic.
The speaker’s treatment, of this question
did not rest here, but embraced a thorough pu ^jj ( .
and complete vindication of the Catholics j !
against the imputed charge of owing civil
agement and training of the young ladies in
their collegiate course.
The Commencement Exercises began on
Thursday forenoon, and Wednesday tho
young ladies finished reading their compo
sitions, after which, the Degrees wore con
ferred by Rev. Mr. Myers, and a very ap
propriate address, delivered on “ Female
Education.” by L. Q. C. Lamar, Esq., of
his city. The address was decidedly a lite
rary treat, eloquent and argumentative,
strong, stirring and persuasive, and well
worthy of the man. and of the occasion.
We would here take occasion to speak more
of his address, but as xve learn it xvill be
placed before Mie public in pamphlet form,
we will leave for others a more extended
comment.
It is due to the graduates to say, they ac
quitted theuiselx’es with decided ability, and ! ped uu iku folks below

whose labor they trustingly looked forward to for

number of blight young eye? were extinguished
and almost at many faces burnt as in days gone

and rowdyism as there is xvont to bo, probably ow
ing to the moral influence of tho temperance law.
which was not enforced nr all. In short, a veteran
citizen could scarcely distinguish “the. 1th" o!

have ft twinge or two more of rheumatism, while

The ubsouce of this latter aim qua. non of r-
