t Farming.
Wxbelieve that the experience of the farmers
of theCber°k ee counties, during the past sea
son has been, that the Wheat crop now holds
out the strongest inducements, as being suited
to our soil and climate—easily managed, little
exhausting to laud and as commanding a ready
market at fair remunerating prices. The de
mand for the next season must of course de
. pend on the demand in the flour market. But
if no material change for the worse should take
place, the many and extensive Flouring Mills
recently established in this section of the State,
It— will require a supply of wheat far beyond what
could have been furnished the present year.—
There is every encouragement to our farmers
to put in a large crop.
The Combination Ticket.
A Whig, if asked the question; yfro is
yqur candidate, will answer promptly enough,
Zachary Taylor. But my Zachary
Taylor has but just said that he is not “a par
ty candidate !" The Whig may say nothing;
but he may think to himself, “Zachary is an
old fox ; he must have more votes than there
are Wh’gs, or he will not be elected; he must
do something to show us that we have put
a proper estimate on his availability. We
must excuse this little peccadillo. 11
But how is it with the “no-party” man,
Who believes that parlies are bad things—very
bad ? Perhaps Zachary Taylor is his candi
date too. lie has only to shut his eyes to a
few trivial facts—(acts altogether unimportant,
of no manner of consequence in the sight of
a “no-party” man, such as, that Gen. Taylor
js a Whig, a thorough Whig, a Whig and a
quarter over, a Clay Whig, nominated by a
Whig convention, associated with an ultra
Whig on the same ticket, and supported by
ultra Whigs because they believe him to be
as good a Whig as they are. The “no-party”
man, being an accommodating sort of person
age, has only to blink these trifling matters
these mere specks on the pure “no-party”
mantle of Gen. Taylor. If he can do this, he
can pull in the same team with the ultra Whig.
The ultra Whig can vote for the “no-party”
candidate, and the “no-party” man can vote
for the Whig candidate, all very harmonious
ly, to say nothing of consistency or common
sense.
“ We are sorry to inform out Democratic rea
ders that in 1844, before the election for Presi
dent was held, it was ascertained by the Whigs
upon good authority—thal Mr. Polk could get but
one State, while Mr. Clay would get all the rest*
By some unaccountable mistake, acquiesced in by
the Whig party, Mr. Polk has been acting as Pres
ident for nearly four years.”— Marietta Advocate.
4 ‘ We are not at all surprised at the ‘ sorrow' of
the Advocate, that » Mr. Polk has been acting as
President for nearly four years.’ Nearly the
whole country indulges the same feeling, but the
great mass of the Democratic party have not had
the manliness to express their feelings as frankly
as their organ, the Advocate. It is, however a fa
vorable indication, and we congratulate that journ
al upon its repentance, which wc doubt not is sin
cere.”—Augusta Chronicle Sentinel.
We remark, in relation to the above that
we are astonished at the degree of fairness
that the Chronicle can display in cases of
emergency. To give a little check to certain
Whigs who were claiming everything for Tay
lor and Fillmore the Advocate brought to their
rememberance a fact in the history of parties
in a playful remark.
Upon this the Chronicle jumps to a conclu
sion and says, “ We [the Chronicle &. Senti
nel] are not at all surprised at the ‘ sorrow'
of the Advocate, that ‘ Mr. Polk has been act
ing as President for nearly four years.”
for fear we may have overrated the
acuteness and intelligence of the aforesaid
Whig Print, we take the occasion to say that
we never have felt or expressed “ sorrow that
Mr. Polk has been acting as President for near
ly four years.”
Millard Fillmore.
The Whig candidate for the Vice Presiden
cy in whose association Gen. Taylor so much
rejoices, has also taken pen in hand and com
menced letter writing for the South. The
worthy man feels his way quite gingerly—
knowing of course the dangers of the task.—
But something must be done. The South had
shown indubitable signs of a determination to
reject the Whig Abolitionist. No coaxing
could prevail on them to take lo their arms an
old enemy. But as something must be said by
Mr*. Fillmore to give the Southern Whigs
something like a pretext for appearing to be
satisfied with him—he writes a lelter —satisfact
ory to the easy good nature of Gov. Gayle. In
this letter Mr. Fillmore, ventures—yes ven
tures—though his Congressional documents
are in Buffalo—and he has no access |o papers
or memoranda to refresh his recollection—
“ to think that at some time while in Congress
I took o?*P7Tsion to state tsy views
on the ’Subject N slaveryintfle .—(lie
seems to forget all his voZes.) And what js
the substance of his views upon this subject ?
According to his own account these views
are almost precisely identical with those of
the Buffalo Convention which nominated Van
Buren and Adams, and adopted the following
resolution :
“ Resolved, That slavery in the several States
of the Union which recognize its existence, de
pends upon State laws alone, which cannot be
repealed Or modified by the general government,
and for which laws, that government is not respon
sible. We therefore, propose no interference by
Congress with slavery within the limits of any
State,”
By parity of reasoning Gov. Gayle would
pronounce the Buffalo Convention, orthodox
Whigs, unobjectionable to the South. But
we are not left to the wonderful concession by
which Mr. Fillmore comes as near the true
Southern ground as the N. York Barnburners
Fortunately; a letter from the same Millard
Fill More, written in 1838, is republished
just at this time. We put it side by side with
the electioneering letter to Gov. Gayle. In it,
four categorical questions are answered by
the real “ Simon Pure” very categorically in
the affirmative.
What say Southern Whigs to that ? Can
you whitewash him ?
Vive La Bagatelle I
We copy the following ptecious declaration
of principles from the Committee’s call for the
Whig Mass meeting at Atlanta:
‘ In performing this agreeable duty, the un
dersigned beg leave, most respectfully to so
licit the attendance of their fellow citizens of
all classes, creeds and conditions, who regard
Purity, Integrity, Fidelity and Capacity as es
' sential elements of a just National Administra
. tion—who are opposed to Hypocrisy, Fraud,
. False-dealing and Violence in the conduct of
public affairs—who would rescue our beloved
country from the evils which now paralyze its
Industry and defeat its enterprise—who would
promote, by judicious encouragement, the de
i velopment of our great resources, Agricultu
( ral, Mechanical, Manufacturing and Mineral.”
So; —Jonathan lias been for this long time
. ruined—teetotally and bodaciously ruined—
( without knowing it. While the ttareful Soul has
i been gathering in his millions, in Wheat and
. Corn and Cotton and Wool and Iron; —while
he has freighted his hundreds of ships to for
eign markets and received in return rich car
goes of goods;—while he has been driving his
factories and constructing his Rail Roads, and
buildmg-jyjcities;—while bis whole patrimo
ny has resounded with the busy hum of pros
perous industry, and the clink of the “ ever
lasting dollar” bias been incessantly ringing
from Maine to Texas; —Jonathan has all un-
• consciously been getting sadly out at the el
. bows. Poor fellow! how he is to be pitied !
Whilst rolling in wealth and prosperity, not
to know that he is in the eyes of the Whig
i Committee the most miserable dog alive!—
• Worst of all, the stubborn, sturdy fellow seems
i determined to go on in the same prosperous
j “ road to ruin” regardless of the croaking of
his sweet friends,who modestly claim the man-j
agement of his affairs, on the old plea—now a
little threadbare—that they have all the “ Pu
rity, Integrity, Fidelity, and Capacity —in the
same breath charitably charging the graceless
Democrats with Hypocrisy, Fraud, Corrup
tion, False dealing and Violence. Truly,
there is something in Whiggery.
The Candidate with two Faces.
‘•Convince us that it will riot (receive Gen.
Taylor’s signature) and we will pull down his
name from our paper.”— New Haven Journal.
“We assure all interested in this matter, that
if we believed Gen. Taylor would sanction
the Wilmot Proviso, his name should not stay
in our columns a moment longer.”— Augusta
Republic.
Would Gen. Taylor if President, sanction
the Wilmot proviso ? The two Whig papers
quoted above, take precisely opposite grounds.
Both are so decided in their] convictions, that
they declare they would not otherwise support.
Gen. Taylor. Both cannot be right. Accord
ing to their own .showing, the Georgia press
or Connecticut press ought to abandon the
Whig candidate. Gen. Taylor, as accommo
dating as he»is, cannot suit them both. Which
is in error?
We propose giving a few extracts from
Whig documents in regard to this matter,
premising, that all the evidence before the pub
lic, bearing upon the question, goes to show
that the Connecticut Whig is well informed of
Gen. Taylor’s intentions, and that the talented,
independent editor of the Republic is the dupe
of party management.
We quote first from Gen. Taylor’s Allison
letter, lo which he has himself referred again
and again as containing his opinions. In that
letter he says : “ The personal opinions of the
person who may happen to occupy the Execu
tive Chair ought not to' control the action of
Congress on questions of domestic policy."
Is the Wilmot proviso a question of domes
tic policy ? The Northern Whig presses so
regard it, and so speak of it. If it’ is not,
what did Gen. Taylor mean by questions of
domestic policy ? Nothing. He could have
meant nothing. We give the following ex
tracts at random. We would submit them to
the candid consideration of every Southern
man :
“The question of extension of slavery over
the Territory of the United .States must first re
ceive the action of Congress, and Gen. Taylor
has formally and explicitly declared his inten
tion not to interfere with the will of the peo
ple as expressed through their representatives
in Congress.”— Whig Ratification meeting in
Boston.
“Gen. Taylor told my friend that he would
neither veto the Wilmot Proviso, nor would
he* intrigue against it, nor do anything to em
barrass its passage through the two houses of
Congress.”— Letter of Hon. Truman Smith
of Conn.
“The election of Gen. Taylor will leave in
the house of the reprc«*ntatives of
ple th* ir just -ami cou«Ay.utional powgr t T*ex
cludtTlhe evil of slavery from the Territories
which belong to the United States.”— Hon.
Caleb Smith, in Nat. Intel.
“On al( questions, the Wilmot Proviso in
cluded, he believed the true sentiments of Gen.
Taylor were contained in his Allison letter—a
letter which contains the true Washingtonian
doctrines.”— Senator Miller, of N. J.
“If elected he will do more for peace and
emancipation than any Northern man would
be allowed to do.”— Rev. Mr. Lamb's Letter.
“And we understand the former (the Allison
letter) also as conveying a pledge that on the
one great question of principle, which most
divides and agitates the country—the exten
sion of slavery over territory now free —he
will not seek to interfere with the action of
Congress—that, is a great point gained."—N.
Y. Commercial Advertiser..
“Gen. Taylor is a Wilmot' Proviso man,
will not veto any measure which Congress
mSy pass.”— Hon. Thomas Ewing, of Ohio.
“Mr. Ashmun made an eloquent speech,
concluding by declaring, that no earthly con
sideration would induce him to vote for Gen.
Taylor if he thought he would veto the Wil
mot Proviso !”—JY. Y. Tribune.
•‘He believed Gen. Taylor would not in the
event of his election veto the Wilmot Proviso,
and that he, as the representative of a slave
holding State hoped that he would not.”— Mr.
Clarke of Kentucky.
We could extend the above to almost any
limit from distinguished men of the Whig par
ty, and from Whig presses at the North, going
to show that Gen. Taylor is considered by them
as pledged to approve the Wilmot proviso.—
We have said nothing of the Signal letter
which adopts the principle, and which has not
been explained. We have said nothing of the
association with Millard Fillmore, who is un
doubtedly a Wilmot Provisoist. But we ask
where is the evidence on the other side to sus
tain the position that Gen. Taylor would veto
the Proviso? His letters are appealed to as
furnishing the basis for the opinions given
above. Where are the letters that give the
least shadow of a support to the opposite
opinions ?

REVOLUTION AT ST. PETERSBURG.
Advices from Breslau, under date of August
16th, give the important information that a rev

that the Emperor and family had fled to Cron

been established at St. Petersburg.
From the other portions of the Continent
the news is generally of a pacific character.
Ourotcn Bread Sluff's. — It is gratifying to
know that we are progressing rapidly in the
way of growing and manufacturing our own
Bread Stuffs, in the Southern section of the
country. ’The increased importation' of Flour
and Grain into our market within the past few
years is astonishing.
Yesterday we were presented with a sample
of Flour, manufactured at Lebanon Mills, Cobb
County, Georgia, which vvill favorably com
pare with anything we have seen. Messrs.
Shackelford, Clarkson & Graeser, as we are in
formed, receive semi-Weekly consignments of
this Flour, affording an opportunity to our Ba

supplied with a fresh article.
The proprietors of these Mills, as we un
derstand, are from the interior of New York,
and understand their business practically, in all

The Changes of Politicians.— ln 1844,
Charles F. Adams, who is now the co-adjutor
of Martin Van Buren, published a book on the
annexation of Texas, in which he said :
“The principles of liberty are never safe-in
the hands of men who make a trade of public
affairs. Mr. Van Buren must be judged by
his preceding course, taken as a whole, and
from that let no man delude himself with the
belief that he is fixed to anything but his own
interest”
Mr. Webster's Speech.— The New York
Journal of Commerce says -:
“ The speech of Mr. Webster has been read
' with regret by many of his best friends. True,
he assents to the nomination of Gen. Taylor
but it is given with such reluctance, and with
so many abatements, that silence would have
been a kindness in comparison. Probaly Mr.
Webster is not aware that his own aspirancy
to the station had anything to do With the
‘faint praise l which he bestowed upon the Gen
eral, yet people will be Very'apt to suspect that
it had.”
tfromthe Macon Telegraph.
The whig stray book.
The Whigs, hereabouts, pretend to have en
rolled on their Stray book divers Democrats;
who they say-, have strayed off from the Dem
ocratic fold, and taken up at the Fillmore pen.
They must labor under a great mistake, a
thing very common with them, as no Demo
crat whatever has either strayed away, or been
stolen up to date.
If Whig leaders can fool the honest, un
suspecting, working men of their own party;
by making them believe that they can vote
for Taylor and Butler instead of Taylor
and Fillmore, they will flhd it difficult so to
fool the Democrats. The Whig electors are
pledged and bound to vote for Taylor and Fill
more. So that the voter at the polls cannot
vote for Taylor without also voting for Fill
more'.
To talk of Democrats coming over to the
support of the Abolitionlsi Fillmore, is an
outrageous slander. The Democrats are tru
ly Southron, having no sympathies with Fill
more, nor respect for those Who deceive the
people into his siipport. The most calcula
ting, thoughtful; and the most dangerous abo
litionists Os the North, Could nOt be better
suited than with the Whig ticket of Taylor
and Fillmore. Fillmore to give the casting
vote in the Senate, and Taylor not to veto any
question of “domestic policy," and they have
the game in their own hurids.

dMMttiarg.
Departed this life in Marietta, on the twenty-sec
ond of August, in the twenty-second year of her
age, Mrs MARTHA IRVINE, consort of Mr
Charles Irvine, of Macon.
Death is ever melancholy in all his movements ;
even when he comes to relieve pains which cannot
be assuaged by human skill, or to release wearied
pilgrims as they totter under the weight of years,
and tremble on the brink of the grave But alas I
how mournfully sad his mission when he enters the
young family in the morning of life ; when the past
was still fresh with pleasant memories of the bridal
day, and the future bright with opening joys and
rising hopes. How painful to behold a young moth
er snatched from her first-born and tenderly beloved
infant, resigning it to other hands, never again to be
cherished with that yearninglove and watchfulcare
which dwell or.ly in a mothers heart. And even a
stranger cannot hide the gathering tear, or repress
the swelling emotion, as he looks upon the sorrowing
partner of a young and fondly affectionate, wife, as,
with almost frantic grief, he begins to feel the over
whelming reality, that he is alone in the world. The
wife of his youth is no more. Her patient ear can
never listen again to his words of joy or sorrow;
her cheerful voice will never more speak to him words
of encouragement, or whisper “soft rebukes in bless
ingsending’’ ; her faithful heart can no more respond
to his feelings and affections, and treasure all his love.
Such arc the sad realities which cluster around the
departure of our excellent and esteemed friend. Tru
ly her sun has gone down in the morning. An un
timely frost has fallen on the hearts of her mourning
relatives. How sudden and unexpected was the
messenger! Who knoweth the hour of his coming ?
“ Leaves have their time to fall,
And floweisto wither at the north winds breath,
And stars to set—but all,
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh Death !”
But is there no antidote for the st ng of death'? Is
there no victory over the grave? There is, to the
child of God, thebeliever in Jeeus Christ; he alone
cansay in death t “thanks be to God which giveth
usthe victory through our Lord Jesns Christ.” Such
was the blessed hope of our deceased friend. She
did not delay the great business of life to the dying
hour. Her lamp was trimmed and burning. She
made in early life a profession of the Lord Jesus
Christ, and had been for years a consistent member
of the Methodist church. Let not bereaved rela
tives therefore, mourn as they who have no hop l ’.
“For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again,
even so,them also which sleep in Jesus will God
bring with him.” Let them say in the language of
Job “the Lord hath given, and the Lord hath taken
away, blessed be the name of the Lord !”

To the Afflicted.
THIS may certify that I had a very bad cough
and great difficulty of breathing for a long
to be the Consumption. By the
friends, I visited East Florida for my
health; ahd used seventeen bottles (about 200
dunces) of Wistar’s Balsam. Finding my health
nd better, from some unknown cause, my mind
Was deeded to this place, where I first heard of
and procured one vial of DR. CHAMBER’S
COUGH DROPS, and 1 feel it to be ditty to cer
tify, for the benefit of the afflicted, that that one
little six ounce vial has done me more good than
the seventeen bottles of Wistar’s Wild CLerry
and wild Florida to boot.
