The Columbus Times gives the following cheer

approaching election in that state
recent visit to several counties Of middle Geor-
ga enables us to say that the finest spirit ANNA ties
the democratic party There is general confidence
in the certainty of Mr. McA listers election by a
handsome majority, and growing belief, that the
democracy will gain the Legislature, which the ger.
rymanderng Of The wings had seemed, (untii latey)
TO make almost hopeless. We are happy TO learn
from gentlemen. from the upcountry, that the dith-
cuties several OF the counties, arising from double-
tickets have been arranged In Franklin and jack
son, and Gilmer and Murray. devotion to the cause
has proved superior tn personal ambition. In Hall,
doubt is entera ned that similar result will take
place. Ia Merriwether, three candidates are run
ming. We canton our friends there to beware Of
wing promises Of lorbearanee and support. Take
care that they do not the eleventh hour catch you
mapping and bring out fourth candidate. The Leg
isIatue is too important to be jeoparded, and the
democratic party will not forget the personal sacr
flee which any aspiring candidate may make in fore
going his ambition for the public good.
The democratic party of Georgia is united-Mr
McAlliser is acceptable to il every where. The in
genuity ofthe wings has entirely failed them, In their
efforts to the least blemlsh upon his character or
to weaken his popularity He stands before the pep
pie sound democrat and heightened gentleman,
sans psur ct sans reprochs. He cannot be beaen.--

prive myself Of the pleasure of accepting all such in

Highly honored us | feel myself to be, by that
which your very obging letter Of the 4th inst. has

ism, entities them The warmest OF my grateful sen
tments, and while The pulses of my heart shall beat
can never be forgotten by me.-Fo address them, by
their invitation, that occasion, would be a cher
