Democracy Triumphant-Sam to the Wall
 Again-O!d Georgia True to the South!
 The following dispatch was received at the Appeal office in Memphis:
 Georgia Elections.
 Augusta Ga., Oct. 5.-Two-t thirds of the counties of the State have been heard from Johnson, the democratic candidate, will have from 1000 to 10000 majority.
 Though not unexpected, this news is glory enough for one day! To throw our hats up, and to give nine times nine cheers for the gal lant democracy of old Georgia would be but a faint expression of the exhilirant feelings of the democracy hereabouts over this glorious and unprecedented victory.
 The democracy of Georgia done their duty their whole duty and nothing but their duty but they have done it nobly and manfuly.- Not by quarters-not by halves-they have swept know nottingham from the State and scarcely left vestige of it.
 This victory in Georgia is another common tary upon Borland's declaration that the demo- cratic party is efete. Borland may have been sincere when he thought the democratic party was e6ete--we believe he was, or he had never left it-but how much, how awfully has he been mistaken and deceived Effete indeed Never, in the history of the Union, did it pos sess more vitality or more strength Reinforce ed by the pure and the patriotic of the old whig party, it is sweeping everything before it. Its principles are now in the ascendency in the Union. Standing upon the Nebraska bill- upon the principle, that the territories, as well as the States, are entitled and competent to the democratic party stands upon rock. The sen timent of the American people is for States rghts-extended even to territories.
 Religious freedom, toe, is another element in the democracy. The persecution of any sect through the ballot box, or otherwise, is some thing against which the democracy will ever be found contending. They appeal to the spirit of our revolutionary struggle and our constitu- ton, in awarding to each and every man the free exercise of the right of conscience. They war upon no mans religion-they war upon no creed or sect
 Hence their victories in Virginia, Tennessee North Carolina, Alabama and Texas-and last ly, the overwhelming victory in Georgia l Georgia has taught know nottingham another lesson. Let us see if they will profit by it, 1 We predict another change in the know noth- ing ritual and constitution!-we predict another change in the know nothing platform! The know nothings of the Union met at Phi ladelpha last June, and made a national plat form. This platform has been repudiated by euery single nothern free State and altered and changed by nealy every southern slave State Nationality is a mere song. Know nottingham has no nationality, but is made up of thousand conflicting and opposing factions. How can such party claim the allegiance, the reverence the respect even, of a lover of the Union?
 But nine cheers for Georgia. Dr. Borand run out that democratic rooster you havc.- This Is the occasion for him. lis growing now will bring joy to the hearts of all true southerl ers-all national men-al lovers of the Union and the constitution. Bring out that rooster Doctor; bring him out and let him crow
