resPectability, and Of much experience and ohs,r-
walton, in visit 10 this Office yesterday gave it as
bis decided opinion, that Mcdonald viii be elected !
Governor OF the State. Two months ego il was g
prevalent opinion in Georgia that Cobb would sle
cted by from twenty TO thirty thousand majority
How is this to b. accounted FOR it is in the sin
gularly adroit change Of the Issue before the
people Last November the question upsn
The practical issue of sc .ession, and the Union
proved to be strong enough 10 carry the state by
an overwhelming power. rke parties in that con
test are the parties ia tsis-not the whig and de-
mocr@sio parties; but the Union constitutional
party, with Mr.. Speaker Cobb for their candidate,
and TIE Southern rights party, with Gen. McDo-
maid IS their candidate. Wings and democrats
are naked up both sides though most of the
wings are in the Union ranks, while the main body
Of tie old democrats adhere to the Southern Rights
psvy Both the candidates were originally de-
mecrats; Mr. Cobb hs;ng elected after an unexaIn-
pied struggle, ID. democratic Speaker Of the lass
Congress
The great issue before the people Of Georgia Is
not :" Shall the State secede 20 Upon that
the result would be the saas, We presume, as
IN last November; but the Issue presented by
The Mcdonald party, aad upon skch they take the
affirmative ground, Is, Z" Has a state the right 20
seeedeg Has she the sovereign rigkt TO 60 out Of
the Usien at her own discretion p This issue, in
this shape, involves almost everything Of ,outhera
states rights doctrines; and that potios. slass ia
Georgia, who have always heretofore been peio M
nant ia the ate who hold TO the doctrines of State
scSc 'eigrty and Federal limitations, will take sides
with RE Donald We should, therefore, not be sur
priseJ at hi. election. Nor weuii his Success upon

Some other very important considerations. The
battle, on the side of Cobb, in Georgia, and oi
FOote, in Mississippi, is for the compromises, ana
for tle Union. The party opp >sed to them are op-
posed to the compromise, and are syinpathascs
wits she secession party o. South Carolina. While
therefore she election 81 Cobb in Georgia, would lie
