The st. Louis Republican, treating Of
the gratuitotis statement that 1cdeser
Douglas would not permit his name b 90
before the Charleston Cchvcntion, and
that the choice would rest between
Breckenridge and 10. Lane, sayss
Very little reliance can be placed upon
either OF the assertions contained In the
above extract. Mr.. Douglas Il just -
likely to 60 before the Charleston Con-
vention for nomination, as Mr.. Huntesv
Mr.. Wise, or anybody else. He may or
he may not be delegate TO the Conven-
ton, just as it suits him. As to Mr..
Breckenridge. he is young enough to 60
over to future time; and as to Gen. 10.
Lane, If the Democratic party is reduced
to any such shifts, the sooner it goes. into
liquidation the better. He has not one
solitary qualification for the place. We
heard him once attempt to make speech
in the House Of Representatives, and
then to read a resolution. which he had
offered in that body. He could not do
1.-THE had not written it, although he
had fathered it. Mr.. Disney, of Cincin-
natl, was the author of the resolution,
and it was read by him to the House, after
which General Lane continued his speech.
Certainly the Democratic party will not
consider the claims to the Presidency of
so ignorant man as this; or. if they do,
no respectable man will think of support
ing him."

Mr.. EEtor:--T see in your last issue a
call for Convention of the Opposition of
this District, to assemble at Cleveland, on
the first of May for the purpose of nomi-
mating a candidate for Congress. We of
Polk will support any good and true man
of our party, but do not see the necessity
for such convention. There is but one
feeling in our county, and that is in favor
of your fellow townsman, BuRcn Cooke
We recognize in him all the qualities to
insure success, and feel confident that
with him as our standard bearer in the
approaching contest, we will have moth
ing to fear. BrRcH can get more votes in
this county than any man of our party has
ever received; and we therefore call upon
him to take the field at once, as we feel
satisfied that he will be able to rcan the
present incumbent, Hon. Saml. A. Smith.

New York, April 5.-The steamer New
York arrived here this morning from
Southampton with Liverpool dates of the
22d.
1t is generally conceded that Peace
Congress will be held, to which all cues
tons involved in the Italian difficulties
between France, Sardinia, Italy, Austria,
and the German states, will be submitted.
and favorable result is anticipated.
The Paris correspondent of the London
Press says the Emperor is informed of the
ultimate resolutions of Austria and de-
sires to recede automatically from his
aggressive attitude. Another letter saws
Austria and France are more inclined to-
wards pacific solution of Italian affairs.
The Austrian papers caution their readers
against too much confidence in the re-
ports Of peace, and express doubts wheth-
er peace Congress win be convoked.
The export OF arms, gunpowder and
sulphur from Austria to the Italian States
has been prohibited.
The London Morning Herald says
France intends to protest against the for
tifications at Placeura.
Cardinal Antonelli has again requested
the immediate evacuation of Rome by the
French troops.
The London Times says the announce
ment of peace Congress, caused an inn
provement in funds, which would have
been greater if the Paris Bourse had
shown any decided recovery of conf
dence.
! The India insurgents under Rebilos were
dispersed by the English and their forts
captured without blow.

WHEAT CRd?.--The Atlanta tGa.,)
American says "whi!e on our excursion
up the Western & Atlantic Railroad last
week, were glad to observe the promising
appearance of the Wheat crop all along
the line. There is every prospect of an
immense yield, should no misfortune be-
fall. That observable along the line of
the road is but a fair index to the promise
throughout all the Cherokee country"
The Woodstock VAL Tenth Legion
says: 1.-THE wheat crops throughout the
country present a most promising APP
pearance at this time, and particularly
that which was drilled. There is an un-
usually large crop growing, and if the
season should continue to be as favorable
as it has been, our farmers will realize an
unprecedented harvest.

Couuterfeits on the Bank of Ham,
burg.

Mr.. Eiitor:-In the News of this morn
ing noticed short extract from an Au-
gusta paper, mentioning a counterfeit
500 on the Bank of Hamburg. As many
of them are in circulation, it would be
well to publish description, for they are
so well done as to deceive most PERSONS
They can be detected by the absence of
the period after the words demand"
president" and Cashier" and also by
the omission of points after the initials
-. j." in the signature of the Cashier
All that have yet seen purported to be
signed by j. j. Blackwood. Mr.. Is. is now
President of the Bank of Charlotte, N. c.,
but he signed genuine notes of this de-
nomination before removing from Ham,
burg. A. G. Delottes is the present CASH
Ter. lido not know that any counterfeits
are in circulation with his signature imita-
ted. Another defect, by which first de-
tected these counterfcits, is in the en-
graver's imprint, in which the letters are
in bad proportion, but this would proba-
bly, be noticed only by printer. The
SAME defects exists in the counterfeit $40
notes, the Gin" in "Danforth, Wright &
Co.," being crooked, and not in proper
proportion with the other letters. w.

Preparing for Secession.

Leading Democratic organs at the South
are zealously laboring to prepare the
hearts of the people for disunion. The
leading organ of the Mississippi Demo-
cracy, the lMssissippian, asks, Twill the
Senators and Representatives of the South
ern States participate in the ceremony of
inaugurating" Republican Administra-
ton, should that party succeed at the next
Presidential electionf In that event, up
on the State Legislature, it says, will fall
the duty of adopting such measures as
will place the State in an attitude of de-
Tense, and prepare her for resuming the
powers delegated to the Federal Govern
ment upon the conditions prescribed in
the national compact" More than ordi-
nary circumspection, it therefore argues,
should be used in the selection of candi-
dates for the Legislature. So also in the
selection of candidate for Governor,
whose functions, under the state of facts
which will, in all human probability ex-
ist during the approaching term" will be
.'transcendantly important" 1t is mani.
fest that there is a deep and continually
widening current among the Southern
Democracy which is setting strongly to
wards disunion.-Nash. Patriot

Mr.. Editor The time is at hand when
the candidate of our party for Congress
in this District should be known. There
are but few of us in this county, but these
few are reliable, having been sorely tried,
and Notwithstanding the feeblcness of
our party here, we feel sure that our de-
votion will entitle US to some considera-
ton in the selection of our candidate
In view of these facts we take pleasure in
expressing our preferences, and hope that
it will not be considered arrogance on our
part if we thus publicly declare that pre-
ference. JAMES b. COOKE, Esq, of Nc
MINI, is our choice; and not only the
choice of the party in this county, but he
is the choice of many good and true
Democrats of Meigs in the next Congress-
ional race. We hope, therefore, he will
consent to become candidate, and at
once announce his name.
