The Wash ington Star says that, in consequence, the Navy Department has ordered a. supply of such clouting to be distributed among the East Indies, African and Gulf Squadrons.— Fabrics of the same kind have been freely introduced into the military service: Six pea jackets, made of gutta percha fabric, were bailed in the same manner as the cloth clothing for the navy, under a pressure of thirty tons. They were then placed over a steam boiler in the yard, and remained for sixteen days subject to an ave rage temperature of 190degrees, at times as high as 212 degrees. On examination, the garments were found in the same state as when packed. There was no adhesion of the folds, nor any decomposition of the gutta percha. One jacket was dripped in water, rolled up and sewed in the corners, (but not pressed) and subjected to the samp neat for three days. On examination this also was found uninjured. Miraculous Escape.—At Providence, R. I., Friday, a keg of powder placed under a bed in the house of John Tucker, near the city, exploded by a train outside. The house was destroyed, but Mr. Tucker and family miraculously escaped. Naturalization. Amid much abstract reasoning, always un certain, too often specious and sophistical, an in quiry into the past, and the development of some of the facts bearing upon this question,' if faith fully performed, will he certainly interesting.— Those three propositions we conceive, ure abun- dantlv proven by the facts of history. Many nations have'bcen benefited by incorporating into the body of their citizens, individuals who were foreigners born. Many have be-11 hopelessly ruined by the exclusion of foreigners from thei. limits. Many have been injured by receiving within their boundaries foreigners to whom they denied the rights of citizens. Nations, in many respects, resemble individuals, in nothing more than in this : the requirement by each of extra neous aid in the management of their affairs. The wisest man profits by the advice of each individual witli whom he may come in contact. The wisest nations have eagerly sought the assistance of all, of whatever age or people, who were capable of beneficially bestowing it. Rome was indebted for her wonderful success, and the not less wonderful preservation of her empire, to tho continual system of creating citizens. The nation, which at one time had beeu arrayed in arms against her State, was afterwards incorporated with her people, and gave her leaders for her armies, senators and consuls. So long as these remained a people separate from tho Romans, with whom they might connect them selves, the empire flourished; when such a state of affairs ceased to exist, it fell. When Italy could no longer protect herself, from Brittan, Gaul, and the Danubian provinces, sprang a hardy race of warriors, glorying in the name and rights of Ro man citizens, who, for centuries, extended and up held the empire of their former conquerors. The greatest Generals, Statesmen end Orators of the crnpiro, have had their birth outside the walls of Some: many of them beyond the province cf Italy. From the time the infant colony made its first conquest, to the fall of Constantinople, a period of near two thousand years, the Roman empire, partially or entirely, was extended and protected by foreigners. The true principle upon which wise nations have ever acted, has been to use whatever material of strength presented itself. Say, one of the greatest of political economists, considers the acquisition of a citizen the acquisi tion of a treasure: it was a deduction made from the history of the most prosperous nations that have ever existed. Constantinople was for years, de fended by the Varangian Guards, a band of Eng lish and Danish adventurers. It is a fact that most of the Austrian Generals and Statesmen, through a period marked with one continual ad vance to power, have been foreigners; and the Turkish arms, throughout the present war with Russia, have been mainly directed by individuals born without ber limits. Napoleon stopped not. to inquire into the birth place or race of tho indi vidual to whom he delegated power. A Corsican himself on the throno of France, he recognized merit in the man, whether he came from France or from Poland—whether he was a Jew ora Chris tian. The success of Russia may be traced to that policy, which has collected within hcrseil learned and Ekilful men from every quarter of tho globe, and to the constant infusion of vigor into her body, by extending her sway over foreign peo ple. Let us look to England which bas been oftei. cited as the model of an exclusive government.— For a long period of time has England drawn her poets and her men of letters, her orators, her statesman and her warriors, from the Celtic races of Ireland and Scotland. Yet England is to a certain extent exclusive, and England presents no model which we should wish to copy. It wore idle for us to discuss the cause of these benefits which have invariably followed to a nation, from the introduction and incorporation of foreigners into it. This much, however, we may be allowed to say: that foreign adventurers, as a class, are possessed of more than an ordinary degree of mental and physical vigor; the fact that an indi vidual leaves his home to seek his fortune else where argues in that individvual an extraordinary degree of energy; and energy in her citizens, is equivalent to power in tho Government. While such has beeu the course of the most prosperous nations with regard to foreigners, let ns examine the result of that policy which refuses all foreign assistance, and confines the care and defence of the Government to its native born citizens.— Passing by China and Japan, we will make an in quiry into the condition of Spain. Spain dates her ruin to the expulsion of the Moors and Jucs. Prior to that time, she stood foremost in the world, in arts, anus and agriculture ; but =h« de prived herself of her Moorish subjects, cut herself loose from the world, and undertook alone the care and protection of her affairs, she sunk into a state of inanity worse than the barbarism from whence she sprang. The .Moors as they were then situa ted were unquestionably dangerous; the wiser course would have been to incorporate them with in the body of the Spanish people. If tho history of the past is a light by which to guide oursteps in the future, it points to no more certain course than this: that tho policy of a good Government is to collect and make use of all possiblo means ol enorgy. It is a deplorable state ol affairs when a nation sinks so low as to be governed exclusively by for eigners, but not less weak is that Japanese poli cy, which rejects all merit unless native born. “A good man is nowhero to bo rejected, the world has need of his services, and happy is the nation which can command them,” has been the enlightened max im of every successful government. In opposition to this system of naturalization it has been urged that the individual can never feel for his adopted country the same reverential lovo that he bears for the home of his birth and childhood, and that to place foriegners in power is to place govern ment in danger. History supports no such theo ry. The fact that an individual forsakes his na tive country and her institutions argues conclu sively that ho lovos another country and other in stitutions better. Man is not a fixture on the soil, but a free aud intelligent being who, from tho various political communities around him, se lects that best suited to his condition. Refugees and the children of refugees have been among the best citizens that any nation has had. Tho for eign legion has never been last in the battle, and foreign statesmen have been among the mostskill- ful and faithful that have ever guarded the affairs of a government. Wc come now to the third and most important point in the argument. Most im portant because bearing distinctly upon the policy of the American party on the subject of foreign emigration. Their design, if we correctly under stand it, is to repeal the naturalization laws without directly excluding emigrants from our shores, thus introducing into our midst sever al hundred thousand persons annually, who are and who must remain aliens in the government. If it is true that naturalized foreigners have ever been among the best citizens of a government, it is none the less true that a political division, based upon a dcstinction of races, bas been fraught with the worst danger to the State where it existed.— As a complete illustration of this fact, we will cite a history universally known. With the Scottish people, since the Union, the English government has had no troubles, for the Scots have en joyed with the English equal political rights and privileges; while the Irish, on the contrary, deprived of these same rights by reason of their religion, have borne towards England a deadly and implacable hostility, which has burst, on every oc casion, into open and destructive warfare. Yet the Irish, in comparison with the Scots, as their past history proves, have never been a factions or a turbulent race. Among the other causes which have been as signed for the decline and fall of the Roman em pire is the revolt and ravages of her slaves. These were persons of the same race with their masters, educated and intelligent, and burning with the accumulated hatred of centuries. Whenever oc casion served their purpose, eithor by joining nn invading army or themselves erecting the stand ard of revolt, they failed not to avenge their wrongs, real or imaginary, by devoting to ruin tho empire of their masters. If these things be gan the decline and hastened the fall of the empire, it is equally true that the first fatal repulse that met her arms originated from a similar cause.— The Emperor Volesius had introduced within his dominions a large multitude of Goth, who flying from the pursuing Huns had craved his protec tion. Instead of distributing theso throughout his empire or attempting ta conciliate their favor, he confined them within a narrow country, where, deprived of their arms and political privileges, they wero degraded by wrong and suffering from tho caste and condition of men, until at length, nerved by desperation, they burst their barriers, annihilated two Roman armies, and opened the way for, tbs conquest of Alsric and Atttila. It is needless to enumerate instances. Whenever history presents a state of affiurs similar to that contemplated by the American party, we find the class thus deprired of their pol-.ieal privileges, either a degraded or a dangerous one. That the few iureign refugees, who have ,i different times made their homes in England aud elsewhere, do noi fail within either of these c nditions, is suffi ciently explained on the groti-ul of their extraor dinary intelligence and the .-••ureity of their num bers. The past influcnceof foreigners on our govern ment, we believe to be a matter not sufficiently- considered in the agitation of the subject of natu ralization by the American party. Experience we consider to be of far more value in determin ing this question than mere abstract reasoning, and experience will justify us in saying that while we have derived incalculable advantage from our naturalized citizens, in no one instance have wo suffered harm. High offices in the State and the army have been bestowed upon individuals of for eign birth, and it is not attempted to be shown that they have not in every instance been filled with skill and fidelity. We have nowhere seen this imputed predilection for their native, country and her institutions, which interferes with their duty as American citizens. The Republic has had no braver soldiers, uo more honest officials, no truer friends than her naturalized citizens. The city riots of which so much has been said, when traced to their cause, will be found iu most in stances, to have originated from wrong and insult infllicted upon our foreign citizens. These things but prove more conclusively what we have hitherto asserted, that when a distinction, arising from the condition of birth, is drawn between the citizens of a Government, hatred and envy must necessarily follow. Wheufever the foreign emi grant has been treated as an American citizen, he has faithfully and peaceably performed tho duties of one. Whenever they have been treated ns a distinct class, as Germans or Irish, they havo been necesserily thrown into a position of antagonism to the native citizen. The conclusion which we derive from tho above argument is this:—By the repeal of tho naturalization laws, the State is not only deprived of the able assistance which she has ever derived from her foreign born citizens, but that instead of friends, we annually introduce into our midst a large number of persons who have no sympathies with the Government in which they live. [Correspondence of the Daily Intelligencer.] Dearing, July 16th, 1855. Messrs. Rugglea d' Howard:—The De mocracy of this and the adjoining counties had quite a large and respectable meeting at this place on the 14th instant. The dis cussion opened with Col. Gardner of Au gusta in a speech of about two hours in length. It would be useless to attempt to give in detail the various positions assumed by the speaker. It was a masterly review of the present position of parties in this State. He showed beyound a doubt that the Democratic party was the only national par ty in existence at present, and the only way to protect the rights of the South and per petuate the Union of these States was to carry out in good faith the principles of the State and National Democratic platforms. This speech would have done Mr. Gardner credit in the Senate of the United States.— Next conies Governor Cobb, who held the audience spell-bound for upwards of two hours, in one of the most powerful speeches I ever heard. Gov. Ccbb is certainly one of the ablest men in the Union, although quite a young man. I have but little doubt that if he should live, and the great nation al principles which he so ably advocates should succeed, and the sectional anti-Amer ican parties should be overthrown, that Georgia will at no very distant day have the honor of furnishing the Union a Chief Ex ecutive. The appeal made by both Gov. Cobb and Col. Gardner to the voters of the 8th Congressional District to sustain their able Representative, Hon. A. H. Stephens, seems to be irresistable. They called upon all parties to rally to his support, notwithstand ing slight differences whichmight heretofore have divided them. That if he was not re turned, the interests of Georgia would suf fer for the want of his genius. Gov. Cobb said that Mr. Stephens’ indefatigable efforts in the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill had brought down upon him the universal hatred of the K. N. Abolition party of the North, and that his defeat would carry with it a thrill of joy through the Freesoil party of Know Nothings at the North and West, and that he had no doubt they had more joy at his defeat than any man in the Un ion, and that they would be willing to con tribute hundreds of thousands of dollars to effect that, end. Both speakers advocated the re-election of Gov. Johnson with great abil ity, after which the audience retired and partook of a sumptuous barbacue prepared by the citizens. Iu the evening the meet ing was addressed by Col. John Phinny, of Augusta, in a fine speech of considerable length. He made a powerful appeal to the voters of the 8th Congressional District to come up to the support of their present Governor and Representative. All of the speakers give this new party, whose object is to put down the Roman Ca tholic religion, and then, perhaps, some other weak denomination, and then to alter that clause iu the Constitution, which de clares that no religious test shall be required as a test for public office. I understand that many of the Know Nothings who had been led into this secret oath-bound society, have declared their intention to withdraw. You may look out for grand news from Old Columbia, the first Monday in October next. PINEY WOODS. AViiat Is to l>e Done i In 1842, when South Carolina nullified the Tariff, Congress adopted, by an over whelming vote, the iniquitous Force Bill, and President Jackson’s course won for himself the applause of all quarters of the country. That bill was aimed at South Carolina alone, and expired by its own lim itation. Massachusetts presents now a case of similar but aggravated character. The nullification of South Carolina broke no faith with her sister States, and deprived none of them of their property. That of Massachusetts does both. It tramples upon a clause in the Constitution for the rendi tion of slaves—a clause which in its very nature had all the force and obligation of a treaty between sovereign States, and robs the citizens of another State of their right ful property. By her act she stands up in the Confederacy and invites to her arms, with pledges of impunity and scrutiny, the sluves of the South to desert their masters. She advertises herself as a sovereign negro thief, whose thefts are to be defended by all the authority and power of estate! j iWhat is to be done ? Will Congress, in its boasted devotion to the Constitution, mete out to Massachusetts in ’55, the same measure that it did to South Carolina in ’33 ? Or will it pass over, as harmless and pardonable in the former, what was de nounced as treason in the latter? We shall see. Nullification, doubtless, in the dicti i- ary of the Federal Government, is quite a different thing in the South and in the North. Now, really it is a matter of not the least importance to us, whether Congress takes action in this matter or not. It certainly cannot by any legislation make the Fugitive Law anything else than what it has been from the first, a worthless cheat, over wnich Southern submissionists made a great hur rah, and persuaded the South to believe that she had gained nothing, and which has furnished to abolitionism pretext for any amount of abuse and agitation*—Charleston Mercury. Murder and Suicide.—At St. Louis, on Tuesday last, a young man named Belsing, of good [ family, whose sister had been lead ing a dissolute life in this city, invited her to ride with him into the country, where he shot her dead, and, returning to the hotel, blew his own brains oat i [For the Atlanta Daily-Intelligencer.] A Sweet Monel for tlie K.

It would be well for Garnett Andrews to ponder upon the foregoing in his crusades against religious toleration, and learn a les son of charity without which all our profes sions are as “sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.” ' It is hoped that the spirit of op pression has somewhat subsided in his breast, yet it is feared that the hope is a for- lon one when it is remembered that his in tolerance is so deep seated that he not only proscribes the Catholics, but in the year 1840, as a judge, rejected the oaths of two respectable Protestant witnesses, who be lieved in the Bible, Jesus Christ, and that sin meets with deserved punishment on earth, simply because they did not believe in future endless misery or punishment, and that too, in the face of the supreme law of Georgia, declaring that “JVb person shall be denied the enjoyment of any civil right mere- , ly on account of his religious principles.” ; Such is the man the K.

Shocking Occurrence at a Mormon Bap tism.—The Cincinnati Times of the 2d says: “ About half past 5 o’clock yesterday morning a party of Mormons, numbering probably about fifty, crossed the river for the purpose of administering baptism to eight or ten converts. The preparation was indecent, to say the least. Both men and women were required to strip their linen, ! in the midst of the crowd and upon the i river bank. The elder led an old man, i aged about fifty years, by the name of Al- | exander Williams, into the water and bap- i tized him. After this the old man, who ! was a good swimmer, struck out into the I water for the purpose of taking a swim. It ! is supposed that his drawers slipped down ; over his feet, which, destroying his motion, j caused him to sink. His son, also named 1 Alexander, aged about 23 years old, and who was stripped for baptism, seeing his father sinking, plunged in after him. He ! could not swim at all, and getting into deep . water immediately sank and drowned before | his father. Both bodies were recovered and delivered to a son and brother, who were ! present at the holding of the inquest.” Reform iu England, The London Correspondent of the Char- : leston Mercury, under date of June 22d, j says: The qestion of Administrative Reform 1 was brought forward, last Friday, by Mr. Layard, who made a very masterly speech on the occasion, probably the best he has yet delivered. Sir Bulwer Lytton spoke also well in support of his amendment, which pledged the House definitely to the question, without passing censure on any party. Palmerston, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, spoke against the original motion, which was put to the vote and lost; but Bulwer Lytton’s amendment was again brought forward last night, and, no one ap pearing to say a word against it, the House passed it without a division, amidst the de risive cheers and laughter of the opponents of the Ministry. Thus, the House of com mons stands pledged to carry reform, and the system of patronage, which has so long crippled the energies of England, may be destroyed. Probably no association has had its claims so speedily acknowledged, as that for Administrative Reform. It has only been two months in existence, and has hard ly yet deided on waht abuse it shall com mence its attacks. It holds its third public meeting on Wednesday next, at Drury Lane Theatre, when Charles Dickens and Sir Joseph Paxton are to be the chief spea kers. England may soon hope to enjoy cheap newsnapers. The repeal of the stamp duty comes into operation on the 1st of July, and the daily newspapers will then be lowered from the five pence to four pence. An even ing paper, the Express, which has had a very limited circulation at the old price, will sell at two pence. The weekly news papers, especially those which now sell at three pence, will add greatly to their circu lation at two pence. The first capitalist who starts a good single sheet daily newspaper at one penny, will reap a rich harvest. If well conducted, the circulation in the first six months might average fifty thousand. Never was there a period when newspapers were in so great request; indeed the war has made them almost the only- literature of the day. Liverpool, Manches ter, Birmingham, Glasgow, and other great cities will, of cousre, speedily enjoy the luxury of a daily paper, from which arbi trary laws have hitherto deprived them. This will effect a wonderful change in the country. Newsparers like the London Mor ning Herald, Chronicle and Post, which ap peal to a small clique or a party, will have to enlarge their viewsor die out. The Times, which, from its weatlth and influence, has almost made the daily press of England a monopoly, will receive an important check, as hundreds of persons who now regularly pay for the loan of that paper, will perfer expending the same sum in purchasing a paper of their own. The vast body of the people have hitherto been without a popular organ, except it was found in some of the Sundy newspapers, and these, it must be confessed, have rather been in the habit of fostering their prejudices, then advancing their interests. It is said that the Times would not have been so bold and indepen dent in its tone during the last six months, but for a conviction of the coming change. It has always appealed to the party in pow er, and it begins to entertain the idea that the people may happen to be of that party. Tunnel under the Niagara.—The Buff alo Commercial agitates the project of con structing a tunnel under Niagara river. It says that the difficulties attending such a work are trifling compared with those met in the pro^ec ■ ■>»-. < r su ,h -works in Eng land and The benefits to be de rived from it, l - that reciprocity in trade exists between ili» United States and Cana da, are incalculable. An examination of localities, in view of such a work was made some time ago, and the spot selected was the shortest crossing between Fort Erie and the Ferry, where the river is 20 feet deep, and flows over a bed of solid stratified rock.— The length of the tunnel is set down at 2,- 400 feet, and the Commercial thinks that the capital required to complete the work under the most unfavorable circumstances, would not exceed half a million of dollars. Never Marry for a Fortune.—We over heard a poor unfortunate get the following sockdollager, tho other day, from his bettor half: “ You good-for-nothing fellow,” said she, “ what would you have been if I had not married you ?

Blakley Esq., will address the Dem ocratic party and citizens of Atlanta, at the City Hall on Saturday evening next. Com mencing at 8 o’clock. What we are Doing. The Democrats are Moving.—Tho demo cratic press throughout the nation was never in better spirits with respect to the prospects of the party than they are at this moment. Everywhere, tho utmost satisfaction, harmo ny and confidence of success exist. We en tertain not a doubt of the triumphant suc cess of the party in the next Presidential election. Gen. Pierce’s administration is entirely satisfactory to his friends, and to the whole party, and his name has already been suggested for re-nomination.—Barn stable Patriot. Thus stands the case. While tho Demo cratic party at the North are standing in the front defence of the South, the Know Nothing party would withdraw from them our support, and leave them unprotected to do battle for our rights. We do not say that the Southern Know Nothings havenot : incorporated within their platform sound | principles upon the subject of slavery; but j we do say, that in deserting the Adminis- I tion, and our Northern allies, they have ! rendered their principles inoperative of any good ; nay. more, they have seriously en dangered the cause for which all parties at the South should be united in support. The Administration and its friends, undeniably stand the only party North, with the excep tion of a remnant of the New York Hards, who yield to the South her constitutional claims ; this they have done amid the deser tion of friends, and the denunciation of foes, amid greater sacrifices than one party has ever made, to the cause of another. If party prejudices could be laid aside, there lives not a friend of the South, who can say that the Administration has not. through its en tire course upon this subject, acted nobly. The patient virtue of every individual has its limits. So, we fear, has that of the Ad ministration. They have endured loss and obliquy at the North. How they will meet the ingratitude of the South, is a question which may be fearfully asked. It is suppo sing a degree of heroism, more than belongs to ordinary mortals, to believe that they will continue, amid the denunciations of the South, to protect her rights. We have no fears for the future, if the Southern men will act well their part. The Northern Democracy yet stand forth a strong and determined body. With such allies as Pierce, Douglas, Cass, Shields, Bright and Richardson, we have every thing to hope ; no party can be ineffectual with leaders like these. The same stern devo tion to the cause of the Constitution, and the rights of the South, have characterized every recent display of the Administration party ; at the same time, it has shown them still powerful to the effecting of their designs. The storm which followed the Nebraska bill, swept from its ranks all un sound and factious elements, whose place have been filled by the rest of the conserva tive men, who had not hitherto acted with them. The recent election in Illinois proves that there is yet power in the Democracy, and 36,000 majority in the State of Douglas, is a good omen of peace to the Union. While tho South adheres to the Northern Democracy, the Northern Democracy will support the South. While such a union stands, all the efforts of Freesoilism, Aboli tionism and Know Nothingism, will be but harmless and ridiculous. We only fear, and we believe it is a dan ger to be seriously feared, that our Northern friends, disgusted with the desertion of so large a body of the Southern people, will quit the cause for which they have so long battled, and leave to an impending fate men who, instead of protecting themselves have exercised their best endeavors to heap obliquy and ruin on their allies. Will the Know Nothing organs tell us the results to follow from the triumph of their party in the South. To our minds no matter was ever clearer: an irremediable separation be tween the constitutional men North and South, and the consequent evils to follow thereon. Georgia Military Institute. The annual address before the literary societies of the Georgia Military Institute, was delivered on Tuesday evening, by II. M. Law Esq. The effort was of a high grade of excellence, oue of the best we have ever heard on such an occasion. Wednesday was Commencement day, when the exercises took place in the fol lowing order: Music. PRAYtR. Salutatory, Cadet F. II. Combs. Music. Ca ^XX h \ Cadet C. M. Forsyth. Progress of America, Cadet M. M, Tweedell. Music. Agricultural Science. Cadet R. S. Camp. Music. Eloquence, Cadet W. T.

The number of applicants for admission is unusually large, and the friends of the Institute regard it as established on a firm basis. The Cadets go into encampment for two weeks, after which the collegiate exer cises will be resumed, and continued till the annual vacation which will be from 20th December to 20th February. Corner Stone of the Medical College. It will be seen by reference to another col umn of our paper that the interesting cere mony of laying the corner stone of the At lanta Medical College will be performed on Saturday next. The efforts on the part of the Trustees and Faculty to establish this institution deserve the commendations of the friends of our city and of medical learn ing throughout the State. Their energy has been equalled only by their success.— Under the most trying difficulties, and in spite of the most violent opposition, they have erected on a solid basis the institution consigned to their care. With the same persevering energy they have hitherto dis played, we may soon expect to see a Med- ioal College in our midst unexcelled in wealth and in the numbor of its students, as it already is in the merits of its Profes sors by any similar institution South.— We hope to see a full attendance of our citizens, on the occasion of a ceremony so intttwting to all. COMMUNICATED. The Judicial EleetioM—No. 6. A ssribler desiring to be noticed sets up nearly two columns in the Georgian over the signature of “Talking Rock,” “mainly with the view of calling public attention to the excellence of the literary merits” of my ar ticle No. 1. Evincing the extremity to which he was driven, he opens with a non sensical play upon the phrase, “reflecting minds.” In answer to which I have.to say —taking the exquisite fairness of criticism in his whole article—I am driven to the conclusion that however “unreflecting” minds may be elsewhere, there is at least one at “Talking Rock” gifted not only in “reflecting” but in “ inventing.” Going still further he says I took up “the pen of indiscriminate panegyric, and endeavored to prove that Col. Brown should be called to preside over the fortunes of Bluo Ridge circuit.” I reassert and believe to be true what I then wrote—that Col. Brown is“ em inently qualified in temperament, habits, education and circumstances to sustain him self upon the Bench.” In “temperament,” by the predominance of the mental qualifi cations and endowments which give quick ness of thought, correctness of judgement, and capability of enduring continued appli cation of tho mind without losing its balance and vigor. In “habits,” by being a man of fixed habits and principles, correct, upright and dignified in his deportment—a man who enforces by example as well as precept those rules of morality which ought to gov ern men in their intercourse with their fel low-men. In “education,” not by being a “case law yer,” as the letter writer calling himself “Marshall,” in the Georgian, would have the people believe,—knowing only the law* of the cases be has represented—but by be ing thoroughly acquainted with the princi ples of law as a science, and the rules of application thereof to the multiplied rela tions of facts as they ariso injudicial in vestigations—by having undergone a rigid course of study and mental training—not for the space of “twenty years” as cited by this scribbler “Marshall” front Judge Black- stoue as the essential period to “ master the science of law.” I would remind “Mar shall” that those wero “old fogy” days— the facilities of the study of law, as well as of every other science, has greatly increased from the days of Blackstone. “Young Amer ica” does not require a long period. I will remark while upon this point that there is in the article of “Marshall” all the foot prints of hireling laudation of the Judge who has probably been accustomed to refer with peculiar nods to his “Buncumb” in court. There is also a manifest and studied effort to read out Col. Brown for no other reason than that he has not lived as many years as some cobblers who are older and therefore think that age alone supplies the place of those essential qualifications whieh are wanting in some, and which Col. Brown possesses in so eminent a degree. This “Talking Rock” man is so enamored of the “immoital dollar,”and so lost to every thing else that he construes the word “cir cumstances” to allude to pecuniary circum stances. If he is so stupid and so like his surname as not to think or give a fair con struction to any thing, I .vill inform him that I did not then and do not now consid er the pecuniary circumstances of the Judge as entering in the slightest degree with the list of qualifications. Some of the circum stances in view when that line was penned have since been alluded to ; among whiqh I may again mention the “hardened condi tion” of the dockets in tho circuit (not into, as inadvertently written or printed), and the utter incapacity of Judge Irwin to “un burden” them, even by means of “adjourned courts,” and the fact that while Col. Brown is usually correct in j udgement he has the capacity to despatch the business of the country. Criticising further upon my literature, Talking Rock makes rare fun for the read ers of the Georgian upon my expression, “ buffetted by the frowns ” of poverty, &c., and says that “ the Colonel is the only man or thing that was ever buffetted by the frowns of anything.” Very well, it maybe an odd and laughable figure, but will you be pleased to read about twenty lines and tell the people w hat you mean by the “snow of the Judicial Ermine,” and also by the “ dirt of political strife and trickery ?” The assertion that Col. Brown sought a nomination from the Democratic party, I beg leave to assure those who do not know the fact, is like many other emanations and assertions of “ Talking Rock,” the truth of which rests only in his own imagination. Having accidentally mentioned the fact of Coi. B.own’s election to the Senate of the State six years ago, and that while in that body he acquired a “ reputation as wido as the State,” a great story is made of that. He did not secure his party vote—true. He was in a minority afterwards—true. “Tho people repudiated his aisunion heresies by an overwhelming vote.” Have you no heresies about you, Mr. “ Talking Rock,” which have been repudiated at the polls by a vote rather “overwhelmingor have you been too cautious to allow your “federal heresies to be tested at the polls? Col. Brown was afterwards amply endorsed upon the Pierce electoral ticket, a little in contrast with the fate of that “ two run ” ticket upon which the name of his competitor fig ured. The defeat there was somewhat “overwhelming/” eh! This inau “ at Talking Rock ” seems to be sensitive upon the subject of “ favorit ism and prejudice.” lie takes my remark that Col. Brown’s administration would be “ free from the shackles of “ favoritism aud prejudice,” for an insinuation upon Judge Irwin. Why are you so restless and fret ful upon that point ? Are you afraid that the “ snow of the Judicial Ermine ” will melt from -Judge Irwin by the “sun” which is to shine “ upon all alike ?” Is it true that you do feel a concern about that mat ter ? This, Marshall says, “I will as cheer fully accord to him (Brown) whatever merit he may possess, as any one, and 1 would as willingly advance his interest as his most devoted admirer.” (No one who knows Col. Brown can believe this to be a candid statement, who has read the article in ques tion.) But Shades of all the Gods! help us to unravel the next clause!—“When that advancement is not incompatible with the rights of a free people!” What right of the people, in the name of all that is fair, will be violated by the elevation of Col. Brown ? Does this hireling Marshall con tend that the friends of Judge Irwin have anything like a divine right to continue him iu office? Have not a “free people” the right to elect Col. Brown even in the face of such illiberal criticism upon his qualifica tions ? Have a “free people” not the right to turn out Judge Irwin even with the sick ly praise which Sheridan, Talking Rock and Marshall pile upon him ? Indeed the whole of Marshall's article is fully in keeping with the strain of puff employed by Whig emis saries throughout the district. We looked for it through the press, as we have had it in private circles in enormous gobbs that ought to have disgusted tho sycophants themselves. Mr. S., T. and M., can you not give us a few more paragraphs of the same sort to help out in this hour of great trial and tribulation, as a supplement to my “brief series ” upon the Judicial Election? Come, speak out like men. Hold up your heads and look brave, until you see what a “ free people ” will do on the first Monday in October next. EMMET.

A detatchineut of the Royal artillery in garrison at Halifax, have been ordered to the Crimea. The foreign Legion at Milville Island has revolted.

CHRONIC ENLARGEMENT OF THE TONSILS My daughter, when six mouths old, was taken with a swelling in the tonsils, which grew larger and b r „. r till when six years old she had great difficulty in swai’ lowing her food. Every night watch was kept, fe ariB - she would suffocate. The best dnetorsattendedherbut could give no relief. I took her to -he most eminen* doctors in the East; they said there was no help furhe- but to outgrow it. With a sad heart I returned home with her, when she became so much worse that the doctors had to be called in again : they decided that the tonsils must be cut off as the only means of giving relief. My wife would not consent to this, and she de termined to try your I.inimem, whieh gave relief the very first application, and by a continued use she cn- tirely recovered. She is now ten years old and Hcshv aud healthy as could be desired. Your Liniment is &l. so the best in use for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns headache, etc., aud it will remove the most severe pain in a few minutes. It also cured caked udder in mv cow in a few days.
