The American clipper ships that have been
chartered by this Government are the adn''ra-
ton ofvvery body who sees them, and attract
grea, attention not only at Marsellles and Ioulon
but also in the Black Sea, both from the En-
glish and French naval officers.
The Queen of Clippers of upwards Of 1000
tons, recently sailed with $50 horses, 200 men
Of the Imperial Guard, and 1900 tons of mater
ial
The Great Republic is to sail in few days,
and will take 500 horses, 700 troops and above
5000 tons Of msterie among the latter are
1000 pieces of heavy cannon and 10000 bombs
A screw line-of:battleships is to accompany her,
and to tow her if necessary. IT, however, there
is favorable wind, the Great Republic will
probably be better able to tow the line-of.battle
ships. This ship has been visited by thousands
and thousands Of people at Marseilles, in cluding
all the high functionaries Of Government, with
their families, &c. She is a splendid specimen
of naval architecture, Of nearly 1000 tons. 1t is
probably very safe to say that no one ship ever
before in this world took on board 500 horses,
to say nothing of the rest Of her cargo.
The Gauntlet, of 1900 tons, the Allcganian
of !, 200 tons, the Nonpareil, of 1900 tons, and
Monarch ofthe Sea, of 200 tons, are all now
loading with horses, troops, and material. -Four
or FIVE other American clippers are daily expec-
ted at Marsecs and Toulon for the same pur-
pose, having been chartered at from fourteen to
seventeen shi|Iings $3.50 to s4.35) per ton per
month, and taken for six months positively. The
Government at present refuse to charter any
more vessels, as they believe they have the full
quantity tonnage they can require There must
bc a; least Two hundred steamers and six or
>ayri! hundred sailing vessels now in employ
c.:i..rc;"d with the war in the Crmea.
Provisions continue very high, and it is 4 cause
of great anxiety to the Government The price
o' bread. however, is still at about three and a
hslfren's per pound to the labOring poor, though
s., the pre- sent price Of Aoar it should be four
and u half 10 five cents. The difference is paid
to the b ker> by the government and the city
bv issuing small printed tickets to the poor
they handing in such tickets in part payment
to the bakers. All this is SO perfectly systematic
ed BY the police that few or no impositions are
practiced by those parties who are in easy cir.
cumstanccs and for whom the relief is not inten-
died. Most momentous results depend upon the
the result Of growing harvest both in Europe
and the United States.

Georgia n Unit Oh the Platform
1850.

Whatever division there may be in our State
among politicians as to some principles, and the
election of this or that man, there's one question:
the "paramount one of the day." upon which
we are one people. The Democratic Conven-
tion Of June 5th, holding 'the American Union
secondary ouly il Importance to the rights and
principles it was dcsigscd to perpetuate, gave
their unqal6ed adhesion 10 the 4th Resolution
Of the Georgia Platform" and expressed their
"unalterable determination to maintain it in it.
letter and spirit" That is the true doctrine. The
Corner Stone III Columbus wanted to know if
any other than the Columbus Times, would
pledge himself to stand by it in every extremity.
The Atlanta lnlelligcucer, in a strong article,
says he is one; as also the Augusta Constitution
alist. As for ourselves this is the last line
fourth resoluion-we wish to seq drawn on paper
and upon this subject "sink or swim, live or die,
we plant ourselves upon and 60 with it Every
Georgian is in heart and mind committed to it.
When that is trampled upon, we know that they
are prepared to say, with Troup, as they of right
ought to- "the argument is ended, let US stand
BY our Swords"
Determined assertion Of our rights is the
guarantee of their being respected.
Whatever opinion We have ofknow Nothing
ism, though they have adopted the Philadelphia
Platform, gone for Cuba, taken the most oppo-
site doctrines, yet We are rejoced that in Georgia
at meeting IF the State Council, held at Ma.
con on the 2sth June, amid their many planks
they have this for their fourth resolution:
"That VIC re-affirm the Georgia Platform of
1850, as indicating the right policy, in the event
Of the contingencies therein montioned and we
hereby pledge ourselves to stand by and carry out
its principles"
As national party, to be Of any service to
the uaintainaace of the rights Of the South, a
candid dspassiouate man must look upon K.
Ms. as out of the question; but in the State OF
Georgia, We can forgive them much, if they, in
addition to their words on this most important
question will let their acts, in standing square
up to them, give them life and vitality.
The prohibition party will occupy, no doubt,
the same position. Undivided, then, upon this
let every Southern State, as Georgia and Louis.
lana, plant themselves upon this platform, and
should the contingencies mentioned arise, though
W.T. hope and believe the national conservative
sentiment Of our Northern brothers will ever
prevent it, the time for words will have passed
into that for action.

If girls would have roses in their cheeks,
they must do as the roses do-go to sleep with
the lilies, and get up with the mornins-glorles.
The forms and ceremonies Of poli!eness may
be dispensed with, in II measure, in the relaxa.
tions and intimacies Of ones own fircsde, but

One of the saddest things about human ma
ture is, that man may guide others in the path
of life without walking in it himself-a pilot,
and yet a cast away.
According to recent calculations, it is proba.
ble that English is already the language Of
sixty millions Of human beings, and that the
number is augmentiug at acoutinually increas.

surely that man who thinks he derives conse.

There is no reason why Tennessee, Arkansas,
