Andrew Johnson.

Andy Johnson's speech here last Thurs
day proved to the satisfaction of every
one who heard it, that a man could hold
the high position of United States Sena-
tor, and yet be lOw enough to traduce and
msrepresent the candidate of an oppos-
ing party, when he knew that, by an ar
rangement of his own, no one would fol-
low to correct his Misrepresentation and
abuse. In Craftsmanship, in the elements
Of true greatness, and all the ennobling
qualities that make man, John Bell is
as far above Andrew johnson as the stars
of heaven are above the lower depths
The eagle plumcs his pinions and scars
gloriously to the mountains top. The
crawling worm. by tortuous and Shiny
policy, attains the same altitude. John
Bell dignified the position of United States
Senator. The position has failed to dig
Nifty Andrew johnson. He is now going
about, and wherever he can gather to-
gether half dozen kindred and sympa-
thizing spirits, disgorges the rankings
of cankered and malignant mind.

LET the South stand Firm.

Let the true men of the South, who
love the Union, gather but the closer to-
gether in this dark hour of the nations
gloom. When the storm Of passion and
fanaticism RACES, IL is no time for true
manhood to cover and crouch. We have
a noble heritage-a heritage of freedom,
purchased by the tolls and cemented with
the blood of revolutionary sires. Let us
be true to them and to ourselves. And
now, while disunionists are exultant at
the prospects of the early contamination
of their heartfelt desire, let the Union
men of the South stand forth deter
mined phalanx to preserve intact the
honor and rights of our section, the peace
of the country, and the indivisibility and
impregnabiity of the Union and Consti.
tuition forever. Let there be general
and simultaneous rush TO the standard OF
BELL and EVERETT, and there ale
true men enough in the North and West
yet to elect them. Let there be united
South upon them, and the victory will
be ours, the Constitution, the South's and
the Unions. -

The Election Next TUESDAY.

The election to be decided next Tu ES-
DAY is the most important that has &C.
Cured since the formation of our govern
ment. For four months we have been
laborng, at least earnestly, to point our
readers to the magnitude of the issues in
volved and the course which patriotism
and n proper sense of self-preservation
dictated should be pursued IT we have
failed up to this time, any thing we could
now say would be of little avail. Opn-
ions are formed and positions taken; and
we have only to add, that let the struggle
terminate it as it may, we shall be conscious
of having discharged our duty. All that
now remains is to repair to the ballot-box
on TU ESDAY and vote the Union ticket.
We again urge all our readers who are
voters, all our friends and neighbors, to be
at the polls for the same purpose. There
is danger of Dissolution of the Confed-
eracy, and it may be the last time they
will ever have the privilege of voting for
O President of the United States.

What Will Georgia DoP

In the event of Lincoln's election, the
question is asked-What will Georgia dc?
Some Of the Breckenridge papers and
leaders, we observe, advocate immediate
disunion. The success of the Black Re-
publicans will, undoubtedly, precipitate
this fearful issue upon us, and whilst we
shall indulge in no feeling of bitterness
towards those who advocate immediate
dsruption-for the South will have great
provocation-we shall urge the utmost
deliberation in meeting an issue so mo-
mentous. AS the people-aN the people
are pitalIy interested in this question, it
should be submitted for their decision.-
Any action in advance of such decision
would be improper and indiscreet. They
should not, they will not be "precipita-
ted into revolution" against their own
tree Will.-IourliaL d. MESSENGER.

The Last Dutv.

The first and last duty of the sincere
lover of his country, when the question
of its fate is to be decided, is to 90 for
ward and enrol his own name in its favor.
If all this class of men will do this on
Tuesday next, Tennessee will have spo-
ken in thunder tones against the fanat-
les Of the North and the disunionists of
the South. We invoke the true patriot
the man who would defend the coup-
try from foreign foe with his hearts
blood, to come up now with his vote
against its international foes. None can
over estimate the Importance of the COM
ing election, and none can absent them
selves from the polls without being recre-
ant to his duty. Rally, therefore, friends
of the Union for the sake of the Union.

What Did He Ever DoP

The Montgomery (Ala.) Post says the
Breckenridge papers are eloquent over
the records of John Bell and Edward
Everett; We wonder if they will ever
find time to tell us anything about Mr..
Breckenridge? What did he ever do?-
When or where did he ever speak in IA
vor of slavery? When or where did he
ever give vote for it? What is his re-
cord upon the subject? Cannot these
eloquent advocates for the extension and
protection of slavery tell us when or
where their candidates ever spoke or
voted in favor of its extension and pro-
lection?
The Athens post. [volume] (Athens, Tenn.) 1848-1917, 1860-11-02
PauSe-Rehect.

We have no doubt thousands of honest,
well meaning democrats intend, next
Tuesday, to vote for Breckenridge and
Lane, believing that to do SO they will
discharge duty and serve their country.
Alas! that intelligent men should be SO
deceived. We have never believed, or
said, that Breckenridge and Lane were
Disunionists, as Yancey, Rhett, Davis,
and Toombs are Disunionists; but they
are the candidates of that school, the cho-
sen representatives of that element
nominated at Richmond and at Balti-
more-and, therefore, every vote cast for
that ticket in Tennessee will be regard
ed by tho Disunionists us an endorsement
of their scheme, and will encourage them
to that extent. Friends! Democrats!-
Pause! Your Country is in one balance,
Party in the other! Choose We between
them!
