r8 During the Court at Rockford, WIG had an opportuni;y of conversing with many 'of our Democratic friends, and all seemed to think that it would be tho better for the
 party to wait until after the nomination
 of thc Baltimore Convention was known, to select aa assistant Elector, for Coosa connty to the District Elector, during the . approaching exciting election, than to SC. lect during the term Of the then Court This suggestion of the course of the De.
 raocrats Of Coosa, we think very pr,.
 dent thing. By the first Monday in June the result of the Baltimore Convention will be known, and on which day the County Court will be in session, thereby
 giving to the Democrats of the county an
 opportunity 10 attend, ratily the Naiona
 nomination, and select an individual as an assistant Elector. We hope the Demo.
 cratic party of tho county generally will
 attend on that day, as we think it is now fully understood that that day is the time set upon for q County Meeting.

Which was given by the members sf that Order at the Coosa Hall, on Mon- day the lsi inst, was, We learn, a joyial affair. The crowd was just large enough 10 make all pleasant and pleased. The large delegation oft the fair sex arraycd with all their forces of sparkling eyes and be- 'wiiching countenances, give quite an en- .tertainment to those of the rougher sex. Everything passed of, a, it always does in Wetumpka, in the most lively manner. The Mc,srs Williams, whose musical abilities it is useless for us to mention, wore there, giving spirit and animation to those engaged in the may dance.

 GT The Editor of the Muscogcc De- n1ocrat gives tic youth who figured so . successfully in Wetumpka, short time since, with the "Woman Tale" some what of a acorching, and says after fin ding cut that he could meet with no sale of 'the Book" he did actually show an in- clinaiiou to please the fancy of the aforc- said Editor in some way or other, and offered to sell him a cake of erasipc soap, determining to give the material prepara. tory to a ''clean shave" We have not learned. that he offered his soap in this place, probably he thought he shared suf. ficientiy without the soap.

 1t was thought expcdient to express by re- solution, desire of the people of Ala bama, that the municipal laws heretofore existing in Mexico should not exist, and that in all territory South of the Missouri Compromise line, slavery should exist To take this resolution by itself, and place t distinct and separate, as "Giles" has, gives to it a foul and false misrepresenta. ton. But let us look to the tenth resolu- tion, which shows for itself that it was not the determination of the Convention not to admit fully the action of Congress upon the subject:
 "l0. Resolve9, That if it should be found inconvenient to insert such a clause into the treaty of cession, that our Sena- tors and Representative in Congress should be vigilant to obtain before the rat ilication of such a treaty, ample securi- ties that the rights of the Southern peo- pie should not be endangered during the period the territories shall remain under the control of the United States. either from the continuance of the municipal laws o Mexico, or from the legislation of the United States"
 Now that "Giles" is so nervous upon the subject of admitting "powers to act" il strikes us with surprise that he does not entertain fears that Congress will have some action upon the subject of raising onions in some of the new territories.- "Giles" certainly ought to have medal of some kind or other awarded to him for his nervous fears. Certainly the Del egates to the Baltimore Convention should employ the services of some eminent physician for "C'iles'" benefit, and to at- tend at his bedside during the coming calm upon his nervous system, which we have every reason to believe will ensue after such mental labors. No doubt the physician will, in his first prescription, or der his head shaved and close coat of plaster placed immediately on the bump of veneration #f

to the decision of the Court. The pris- oner made miraculous escape, and fled to his master, his only hope, as a suppli- cant for life and mercy; he begged his nlaster to save him; his wife, his brothers and sisters united their applications, but in vain. The scene--the emotions and feelings of Mir. Walker on this trying oc- casion may be imagined, but cannot be described. He did not, however, hesi- tate the law had condemned the fugi- tve--a jury of the country had convicted him and justice demanded the sacrifice. He did not permit the natural promptings of humanity to interfere with his obedi- ence to the mandates of the law, or his duty to his country. He promptly secur- ed the fugitive and returned him to the custody of the Jailor.
 The Jailor had offered hundred dol lars reward for the apprehension of the iugitiye-but Mir. Walker refused to re- ceive it. We will further remark, that he could not have been influenced by pub lie opinion, for he could not have known what it was, or what it would be. The prisoner escaped Friday morning, and as strange as it may seem, he stayed, till lae Friday night, in a stable loft near the jail. He reported himself to his master, on Sunday morning, by whom he was imme- diately returned to jail. Thus, it is evil dent that MT. Walker did not wait to learn what public opinion was or might be, but acted promptly with no other view than to carry out the mandates of the law and subserve the objects and aims of jus tico

From the Macon Republican. Escape and Hseca ptuHre.

The negro man, GEORGE, who was convicted of murder and sentenced to be hanged on the 12th inst, at the late ses. sion of the Circuit Court, escaped from jail on Friday morning last, but was TO. captured and returned to tie tailor on Sunday. .t,..t
 The circumstance of this escape and recapture are both peculiar and extraordi. nary; the maiu particulars flwhich may be learned from the communication ot Mir. RUTHERFORD, in another column.- It is evident-nothing can be more so- that no person whatever, had any agency in the prisoners escape and, also, that neither the Sheriff nor Jaiors is, in any way, culpable for rcmissness or neglect of duty. We will venture the assertion, that not one man in hundred couEd have de- vised and executed the plan of escape, which was devised and executed by the unfortunate prisoner. It is impossible to conveyto the reader correct idea of the
 locality and mode of procedure but sui flee it to say that it was the conception and work of much skill and ingenuity.
 The prisoner, after getting out of iail, fiedt his master, Afr. B. W. WALKER, of this county for protection. Mir. Wal ker had, as was his duty to do, vigorously defended him during the pendency of the ! prosecution; he employed able and efli- cient council and did every thing requisite to the ends of justice hut when an in telligent jury, after an impartial trial, pro. nounced the prisoner guilty of the crime tor which he was arraigned, he, at once, abandoned him to his fate, and submitted

MURDER NEAR MoBILE.-TAe Mobile papers state that a man name1 Palmer, was shot dead near MT. Wragg's re si. dence about five miles from that city. on the Government street road, two or Il Tree days since. The person who fired the gun was concealed in the woods. Palmer died instantaneously. He was respec. table citizen, we'll known to many of the older inhabitants, and when killed was going home from his daily labor. We are informed that Palmer was the princi pal witness against Copelan, who, as sta. ted, attacked Judge Jones.

ur Queen Vic, at the last account

Ir Queen Vic, at the last accounts, had left London five days previous to the Chartists meeting. Her accouchment was of short duration, and she took the risk of open air rather than the iniuriatcd feelings of the populace. Queen Vic's bed, just at this time, threatens to be ol anything else than of roses.

Walkers course in the matter. and to give him full justice we publish below both his letter and the editorial from the Macon Republican, which we think should satisfy the most prejudiced mind.

MACON COUNTY. Alabama.
 May I. l9lS.

JoHN HARDY, Su In your last paper you mentioned the escape from .ai of my man George. It affords me pleasure to inform you that he has been arrested and returned to prison, for the particulars of which refer you to the editorial in the last Macon Republican. will thank you to copy it into your paper with some additional editorial remarks.
 This has been very disagreeable af- fair to me throughout From the aggra- vated character of the murder, and the circumstances under which the boy was discovered and taken at Maj. Cooper's, there were some who thought that should not defend the negro. At frstI thought that would not, but after mature deiber- ation, and learning that some of the strong circumstances against him could be re- moved, l determined to defend him, which 1 did at an expense of about Sl00. l gave him full and fair trial, and felt sat isfed that had discharged my duty.- Persons situated differently, however can- not understand the obligations of a master under such circumstances. hope, how ever, that when all the facts of the case a"e known, no one can or will suspect my motives for defending the negro.
 As l presume that yo1r paper has an extensive circulation in Talapoosa, am very anxious that the facts of his escape and arrest should appear in it. It was the intention of tho negro, if would not as- sist him out of the county, to go to We- tumpka to his brother and other relatives, until he could find some one that would take him off. If he had succeeded in get. ling to Wetumplia, he would, in all pro- bability, have accomplished his purpose. l had to use great caution to get hold o him. 1 arrested him with my own hands. must say it was sagreeable task, but it had to be done by some one, and knew that he would not suffer any one else to approach him. ia
 Your attention to the above will be es- tcened as a very great favor.
 Yours truly,
 B. ". WALKER.
