Some time ago we give short account of the treatment received by Mr. Joseph "R crrr t tHa hands ' of the chivaT of "ODI -x ; . : , , w Ringgold, in Georgia, to which place Mr. Bigg had emigrated from Pomeroy. With Mr, Rigg many of bur readers are acquainted, and all who know him, know that it is not in the nature of the man to create; distnrbanceSj or violate the lawj wlerever he may be. ; .' . , We have before ns the Ringgold Ex brass! of the 23d alt., in whieh is a long aft t article on the Bnbject, and'which, while abusing Mr; Rigg, in true Southern Btyle, substantially admits the facts as stated by us.". The Express admits that Mr.1 Rigg purchased the farm for some $2,000, as stated, and was quietly at work upoii'iti '' The Express proceeds: , , "About this time the outbreak at Har per's Ferry occurred, and as the news of the .terrible ; conspiracy sped over the country, an excitement sprang up at the South, the like of which never has been equaled since the days of the Revolution. Xy nidi's law was administered to; various "Abolitionist in the South. This came to the knowledge of bur hero, Rigg, and Jie, whether from excessive cow akdiuk FROM CONSCIOUS GTJILT -or .from an . inability to''yMkt'the'paymnts:'on' his land; we are unable to say,) though never northern home. V: ' ; " ,rThe Express then denies that "a dele gation of citizens waited upon Mr. Rigg to ascertain his viewt on Slavery, Ac?1 Well,' nobody ever, said he was waited upon, by "a delegation"- of citizens. " "When the man who sold him the land ascertained that he was about to re move from the State, 7te $wore out ah at tachment against his property, which he had' right tojpkrf t9 secure his debt.- Rigg applied to one of the most emi nent Jawyers in the place for advice; ad mitting that he was about to remove. He was-: told, and truly, that he had no grounds of defense to the attachment.'1 Well, here was Mr, Rigg, in the midst of this admitted "excitement." ; It is ad mitted, too, "that various Abolitionists" were being iliyncKed"v i theTSoutli'and IhaV Mr- Rigg knew it: " if is admitted 'further, that after the farm which . was partly pail for,' and Mr. Rigg's wagon, . and two horses, and all his other property had been attached to secure the balance of the'purchase money for the farm, and which was not due, a warrant was taken out to arrest and imprison him. All this is admitted by the Express, which con tinues: ' ' ,.::' "His fears growing upon him, -Mr. Rigg slid, leaving nearly all his property behind in the hands ofan officer, to settle his debts." - ,.V,..'. ' :; ; So it seems that Mr. Rigg slid, and .,waa not at all injured or driven away by the chivalry True, the chivalry . were , very, much "excited had "lynched various Abolitionists had dogged his . .steps, and thrown out their threats had, under the forms of JawKt attached three or four thousand dollars worth of property ' to secure the payment of a few hundred, w men was not due bad swora out a Warrant for his arrest and imprisonment, and his attorney advised him that he could do nothing to save him. Yet this r organ' of thechiavlry proceeds to say, "thati:1." lvf ; :. :. : 4 v 1 'he has lost 1ii property f hp;'did it by his own 'jolly and vad management. -It is not' true that the citizens of this , place ot surrounding county h&verobbed him or taken his money from him. The f- people.: of. this community have never : harmed the man, and never would if he ihad stayed here and behaved himself like a white man. , But we have no hesitancy in saying that if he had been found tam pering with our slaves, and inciting them - to insurrection, he would have been jomppeii nice Diazes, ana per naps given a free ride and a new coat. : The Express then goes on to say -that iC isincredible! to suppose that the' amount of money and property which Mr. Bigg Jbad. "should set the whole country, after . jiiui, lajrmg piuta auu ucviaiug euueuiea by which he could be robbed of it." And winds up - with this statement, which," whether incredible or not, we will not presume to say. - But the Express, ' in sblemtt earnestness declares that "Men have passed through here in per fect safety with twice that amount in their possession." Now, if it be true, as here declared, that men, with twice as much money in their possession as Mr. Rigg had, "have , 'passed through Ringgold with perfect safe ty," it certainly speaks volumes in favor of that highly civilized and enlightened community; ' Provided it be shown that the said community knew that the per -eon aforesaid had the - money in theti possession.'' But on this point, we are left painfully in "the dark. Will the Express please enlighten us. - Did you know," or suspect, until the persons afore said had "passed through,'' that they really had the cash with them?

A meeting of Bepublicans will be held at the Court-House, on Thursday evening next, for the purpose of organ- . izing a Republican Club. As the open- j ing campaign is one of the utmost im- r portance, it behooves all true friends of their country to contribute their influ-: ! ence in all legitimate ways to advance their cause. Let all, therefore, who can, j I attend the meeting on Thursday night, and by their presence and counsel help I to speed on the good work. . Cincinnati Eletion. i This dav CMondavY the Municinal - - ' ' . . -------x- election takes place in Cincinnati. Both I parties have their candidates in the field, j and are both working earnestly for sue- j cess, lhe democracy had quite a large majority last fall, and expect to increase it this election. But. the Bepublicans, while contending against great odds, are by no means void of hope in the result. We believe it is admitted on all sides that both parties hve selected 'good men to fill the 'various offices, so that, let which will succeed, the city is promised a fair local government. The greatest signif icancy of the election will therefore be in its party aspect. If the Bepublicans should carry the day in that Democratic strong-hold, its influence on the rest of the State will be very good in the fall election. We will be able to record the result in our next paper. O.VITE AMD8IIVO. ' A Democratic paper in Charleston, speaking of the effort of the Douglas wing of the party to' remove the coming Con vention'frbm Charleston to New. York, says;, .' ' . !; . .." , "Would it not be amusing if the Com mittee did make the call, say, to New York, and Northern delegations met there, and the Southern delegations, ad hering strictly, as is their wont, to au thority and usage, met at Charleston? Would it ' not be a propitious event. The South," consisting of nearly all the Democracy, would lay down a constitu tional platform, nominate a proper states man for the Presidency, and the unscru pulous unsoundness of the Northern De mocracy . being . sloughed off , into the Newt York body, (representing nothing but themselves,) would once more unfurl the constitutional banner, and under it beat back the hosts of Abolitionists, or give deliverance to the Southern States." Here is an honest announcement. " The South consists of nearly all the Dem ocratic States; and constitute the trite De mocracy." ", A plainer and more palpable truth was never uttered, and yet North ern demagogues, for the sake of the spoils, will deceive honest men into vo ting the ticket,' by the transparent sham of popular sovereignty. "STAKED TRUTH." ' Everybody, we suppose, has wondered at the expressions "naked truth" and "dresscd-up falsehood," which so fre quently, occur in. conversation as well as in print. ; ; ': ' ' J 'r; Talking with a- universal genius the other day, and hearing these terms used very freely, it occurred to us that the solution of the mystery of their originand meaning' could - be obtained -from ' our learned .friend, or , not learned at all. And bo, in the pursuit of knowledge, we propounded the inquiry. The answer we obtained was quite satisfactory, and substantially as follows. Said our in structor: "Truth and Falsehood were traveling one warm day together on the bank of a river, and both went in to bathe, near the same place: - Falsehood coming out first, donned the beautiful garments of Truth, and leaving his own vile rags in their place, went on his way. Presently Truth coming out, found his dress had been stolen, and disdaining to use the dirty niantle of Falsehood, started naked in pursuit of the thief; but not being as swift footed as Falsehood, has never been able to overtake him,',. Ever since the one has been known as Mressed-up Falsehood,' and " the other, as'.'naked Truth." ; :;",:.: .v..',.,. V; '.: . : Such was the account given by our learned friend. Whether original with him or not, we cannot tell. But we drew from it this important inference that the reason so many persons turn away in disgust from the approach of Truth, and are on such friendly terms with False hood, is on account of their extrememod esty. r1: ' " .

It is said that the reason why Charles ton piles up the fare on the Delegates to the Democratic Convention, is to reim burse her, in some degree, for the extra ordinary outlays she is compelled to make in consequence of the meeting of that august body in her midst. Chief among those expenses is the item for double locks, which the citizens deem it prudent to have placed upon all the doors. As they cannot trust their Northern allies they have concluded to guard themselves as securely as possible, and, as shrewd financiers, intend to make their allies pay the expenses in the shape of extra charge for boarding. The idea is a good one, and we hope will be per fectly satisfactory to our Douglas friends.
