COLT RACING. A Colt race took place, on Monday last, over the track of J. G. Winter, Esq., in the lower part of this city, between Col. J. D. Thomas’s lilly, Lady Falslaff, Mr. G. Edmonson's filly, lone, and Mr. James Lkveuich’s filly, Sally Buggi a single dash of a mile —entrance §IOO. Mr. Edmonson’s lone came out ahead, but the Judges decided in favor of Sally Bugg, in conse quence of a charge of foul-riding against the for mer.—Time, Im. 575. Another race took place yesterday, between Mr. G. Edmonson’s filly Jane lieail, by Lance, and Mr. S. Shelton’s colt Daniel Boon, by Bertrand, a single dash of a mile ; which was won by the former.—Time, Ira. 57s.—track something more than a mile. PROM THE CONSTITUTIONALIST. “ Judge White and the Free Negroes. —As wo published the charge alleged against Judge White, that he did actually walk to the ballot box arm and arm with a free negro, it is but justice •that we should give the denial of the charge by the Knoxville Register of the sth instant. We must, however, have leave to remark, that, if Judge White has really been guilty of such an df euce against the manners & customs of the south, there would be nothing very surprising in it. The day of an election is a leveller of all distinction of rank, wealth, and manners among the voters. Tho negro, who was then a voter in Tennessee, was the equal of Judge White, and the vote of the former counted for as much as that of the lat ter. It should not create surprise that both went arm and arm to the poll.” We read the above with astonishment- “ Not 'create surprise,” for a respectable white man to walk arm in arm with a negro, in a slave-holding ■country 1 But, we beg pardon ; the writer sup ports the Van Buren and “ Dick Johnson” ticket, and it is not to be wondered that “ it should not create surprise” in any one who advocates, for tho second highest office in the Confederacy, a man who has had, successively, two negro wives, lived with them openly as such, educated his mulatto children like white ones, and attempted to thrust them into respectable society, from which they were indignantly forced back ! Certainly, nothing in the way of Amalgamation, need surprise the open advocates of such a man—not even, should their two candidates be elected, if the one should attempt to introduce his sooty daughters into so ciety at Washington City, and the other dismiss the members of his cabinet, if they refused to ad mit them into their families as “equals.” Verily, verily, things arc come to such a pass, that one need not be “surprised” at anything. FROM THE SENTINEL. “ Awful Disclosures. —Col. William L. Stone, Editor of the New York Commercial Advertiser, has made a visit to, and an examination of the Hotel Dicu Convent, with a view of testing the r. | truth of Maria Monk’s Awful Disclosures, am gives it as his opinion, that she is an imposter and her book a tissue of falsehoods. He has alst n had an interview with Maria, and Frances Par tridge, another girl who says she has been in tha Convent, and stales that bis conviction of thoi ” both being imposters is doubly confirmed by tha v interview. He has been replied to by the Rev Dr, Brownlee, Rev. J. J. Slocum, and W. Robirt S son, Esq., who were present at (lie interview, am J- give an entire different version of the whole affair Col. Stone has rejoined, and pronounces thcsi “ e gentlemen liars, not literally, but substantially , Wc have no room for the publication of the! l> pieces, but whatever may be the result of tin n > whole controversy, our readers shall be informer —of it. ri ’ While on this subject wo must express somi It surprise at the tenor of a lengthy editorial on the is subject, iu the last Chronicle, Every body win ; d lias sold, read, seen or believed the book, comet s , in for a share of our neighbor’s rebuke or denun y cialion; and intelligent persons professing tin L t Protestant faith, both in Canada and tile Uniter States, are charged with winking at falsehood if which they do not believe, because those false - hoods are told against the Catholics. This is <i d grave charge, to say tho least ofit. (I) rl The Chronicle thinks that even if Maria Monk’s 5- stories were true, they ought neither to be pub, n fished sold nor read. This doctrine might verj well suit those who arc implicated in the charges but not the people of our intelligent republic. (2) s The Chronicle docs not “entirely approve; o! i- Convents,” but it has nevertheless said every d thing which its ingenuity could deyise, to prove e them to be the purest, holiest, and best of places, i, (3) The Chronicle says: if “ While it was confined to tho bookstores and i- people of tho North—the former of whom seem j, as ready to profit by and disseminate all indecent impostures and foul slanders, as the latter to read it and believe them—we treated it with the silent s contempt it alone merited.” Now, however anxious the Chronicle may be >, to enlist itself in behalf of the Catholics of Cana da, or any where else, we can see no shadow of e good reason why it should be done at the expense :- of casting such an imputation as this upon the I. “ public of the North.” (4) i But the portion of lire editorial which has at tracted our attention most of all, is that in which an appeal is made to the people of Augusta and the South. We cannot, perhaps, do better than republish the whole paragraph : “ People of Augusta!—of Georgia and of the entire South ! —Protestants, friends of justice, re ligion and morality ! Look at the few Catholics . among us; are they not as good citizens, as pious Christians, and as honorable men, as any others] Why, then, should We think of visting upon them, ■ the alledgcd faults or crimes of those we know not, and who are not of us ]—why, introduce or admit here, the excitements of other places, or interest ourselves in those of foreign countries, farther than as matters of news]—Why not judge each man among us by his own acts, and not those allcdged of others, far away. And for our Catholic brethren, are they not, from their similiarity of interest and comparitive weakness, entitled to pur protection, against any public in sult or aggression whatever, from any source; and should not our fraternal feelings toward them prompt us to treat any such assault, as an attack upon ourselves 1 For their religious faith and worship, however different it may from ours, is not that a matter between them and their God, alone ! Shall we attempt to deprive them, be cause of their weakness, of that equal, entire, and perfect freedom of conscience and of faith, guar antied by the constitution, alike to them as to us] Nay, shall not we all rise us one man to protect them from such attempts, as we would un der reversed circumstances, that they should do unto us; and that we may hope, on meeting them at the last Judgement scat, that he who is alike the parent and Judge of the Catholic and tho Protestant, may say to us, accept the affection and protection from me, that ye extended unto me; for ‘ inasmuch as ye extended it unto these, my Catholic children ye extended it unto me.’” Now, from the vcheflicnce of this appeal, the belief may bo induced that the Catholics of this place have been persecuted; and inasmuch as there has boon recently, a controversy between the Editor of this paper and the Catholic Priest of this city, we respectfully ask of the Editors of the Chronicle, whether the above remarks have been elicited by any thing said by us in the course of tint controversy ] Whether the “ public insults,” “ aggressions” and “ assaults,” against which the Chronicle calls upon tho peo ple of Augusta to defend the Catholics, have besn committed or threatened by us] If not by us, by whom ] (5) The controversy alluded to was forced upon us, in a rude manner, although wc protested at every step against it. Whether we shall be under the necessity of saying any thing more upon the subject, will depend very much upon the reply of the Chronicle to tho en quiries wc have made. (1) “Grave” as it may be, wc do not retract a word ofit, as it appears in the article referred to; and if tho Sentinel is disposed to do us justice, why did it not extract the rcmaiks referred to. If the editor behoves that there arc not persons, both in Canada and the United States, disposed to remain silent, at least, on this subject, as well others, because of their prejudices against the patty assailed, we believe otherwise; and, not knowing any reason why wc are bound to believe . as ho docs, we leave the public to judge between us, merely hoping that he will not confine the charity manifested here, to this subject, and those persons, alone. (2) Why not, in sheer justice, stale the reasons wc gave for this, and not lead your readers to draw inferences from this remark, such as nothing vve have said will in the slightest degree justify] As “ acts speak stronger than* words,” if you really differ from us on this point, would you consent to publish in your paper any extract from ; the Book ] If not, and its contents are too shock ingly indecent to be seen there, why should they be published elsewhere ] And if the charges be . true, do you think that the cause of right and • justice is to be’subscrvcd only by publishing them as they have appeared—or more so, than by ma king them before a magistrate, & thereby bringing tho offenders at once to trial and punishment] (3) This is nottrue. If it wore, we should en tirely approve them. If put to the lest, it would require no “ingenuity” to state other facts than those we have done, to the same effect; and if the Sentinel were disposed to do us justice, or to afford its readers an opportunity to do so, why did it not publish all we have said on this point, and thereby allow its readers to determine wheth er or not it would justify what it has said ] Had it done so, a reply would have been unnecessary —and the same in all other cases in question. Why, too, has it italicised tho word entirely, but to excite prejudice against us t and if the gene , ai ignorance, in relation to Convents afford it thi s id power, would it ho a merit iu us to be governci 1 ’ by that ignorance, and the. bitter prejudices it cn r , genders ] And why publish this isolated son it tcncc, but to take advantage of that prejudice or Is it just to deal thus] Is it doing as one wouh be done by ] And will the Sentinel say it doc llk| not approve them, iu what wo have shewn a id and humanity] (d) So, the prejudice against Convents is no y. sufficient, but it must also call to its aid those o tir the “people of tho North.” Very well; the ic worst “imputation upon the people of tho North,’ would be to-say they are so insensible to theii )c own errors as not to admit the justice of what wo is have said, or so blind as not to understand tin io object of the Sentinel. (5) Why this sensitiveness ] Can’t the Sen ie tinel see that the remarks grow out of the repor id wc had heard, that the infamous publication was for sale at the Bookstores of tho city, and tin a impression, plainly manifested, that the exposure of SUch a book here, was not only a public insult ’s aggression, and assault, upon tho Catholics here, (though not intentionally so on tho part of tin J venders,) but an outrage upon decency, & a blow I) at morality. Would the editor of the Sentinel feci iff willing to place such a book itt the hands of any y female relative, or upon tho centre-table of his s drawing room ]—When wo design any re marks on the course of the Sentinel, our whole d career in such matters, might bo its guaranty, that " they will be plain, open, and unequivocal ones, ( l The remarks in question speak plainly for them it selves; and if any that arc general, apply to it, we cannot help it. If it shall choose so to apply e them, that is its own business, not ours. If it i. ,f .wtll show us, however, that wc have in any re ic spoct done it unintentional injury, we shall be c found as ready to do it justice, as any others. As t to its controversy with the Rev. Mr. Baiiiit, of p that, or the merits of it, we know nothing, and J with it vve have nothing to do. Except the n last part of it, it occurred during the absence e of the writer of this; and all we read of it was .. a few lines of the editor’s last remarks, when, is being interrupted, we laid down tiro paper a with tho intention of lairing it up again, but ’ have been unable to find it. We therefore J had no idea of interfering with that controversy, r and probably should not have had if we had read r it;; and as to what may have occurred in it, tho J Sentinel will not of course consider us bound to j be governed by its opinions, or to refrain from r freely expressing our own, when they differ from r them. ’ If there had been no other motive for avoiding j an intcrfoienco with that controversy, the friendly i personal and political relations between us and the 1 editor, were amply sufficient, at least while there s was infinite room for all our views without it; and, t desiring to preserve those relations uninterrupted, ■ we can assure him that they ever will bo so on * our part, if ho will only deal by us, as we do by ! him — publish all that he comments on ; for, what i ever may bo our disposition that way, and to con ■ fidence in a similar one on his part, it is not in | human nature, to attribute friendly motives to a , contrary course.—As to his closing remark, we s deprecate nothing that he may desire to say, if ' he will place both sides fairly before his readers ; nay, on that ground, we invito him to a friendly discussion of any thing vve have said on this sub i ject, or may say on any other; and, our life on it, wo will not be the first to utter an unkind word. ’ Wc hope, how-ever, that ho will not again deal ; with us as he has in tho above article, and sincere f Iy regret that wc have been compelled to reply to 1 it. !

Unlike tho clamorous host of quack medicines, with which the columns of the public press are crowded, these Pills have the testimony of the whole medical profession in their favor, and not a single case of ill consequence or inofficacy is to be alleged against them. They are composed entirely of vegetable mat ter, and they honestly promise no more than they faithfully perform. A physician of eminence who had witnessed tho efficacy of these Pills in his own private practice, had the candor recently to acknowledge to tho proprietor that ho had never Used an arti cle that answered a better purpose for what they are recommended, anil that they ought deserved ly to stand at the head of the whole class of such remedies. Perhaps no article of the kind has ever been offered to the public, supported by testimonials of a character so decisive, from sour ces as respectable, or that has met with mote gon al favor. 'l’liseo Pills have been most successfully em ployed in almost every variety of functional dis order of tho Stomach, Bowels, Liver, and Spleen; such us Heart-Burn, Acid Eructations, Nausea, Head Ache, pain and distcnlion of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea, Cholic, Jaun jlicc, Flatulence, Habitual Coslivennss, Loss of Appetite, Sick Head Ache, Ac. They arc a safe and comfortable aperient for Ibinales during preg nancy and subsequent confinement, relieving sickness of the Stomach, Head Ache, Heart- Burn, and many incident Nervous Affections; literary men, sluddtils, and most other persons of sedentary habits, find them very convenient. Those who indulge too freely in th* pleasures of the table, find speedy relief from tho sense of oppression and distention which follow by taking the Pills. Those who arc drinking Mineral Wa ters, and particularly those from ague and fever districts, will find them a valuable adjunct. Those who arc exposed to the vicissitudes of weather, on voyages or journeys, can take them at all times with perfect safety. Dr. P. having been educated under the most eminent American and European Medical pro fessors, and practised his profession many years in different climates, considers himself well qual ified to judge on tho nature of inveterate disease. Prepared by Joseph Priestly Peters, M. D. P. B. C. P. M. at his Institution for tho cure of ob stinate diseases, by means of vegetable remedies, No. 129 Liberty Street, N.

Alois anna, in corpore sano. “A mind well lodged, and masculine of course.” Death mot Disease the other day, And thus they gossipped on the way. Death. —How comes it friend, in every shape You let so many folks escape ] A few years back, and every elf, Once sick, you laid upon the shelf, Dyspepsia then had power to kill— Asthma defied the doctor’s skill— 'The lancet too, at all times sought, Its hecatomb of victims brought, Then Costiveness could fatal pro X-e, And Rheumatism no power remove; A simple cold where’er you went, A subject to my kingdom sent. How comes it then, that now-a-days, Folks slip your gripe and go their ways? Asthma subsides— Dyspepsia's cured, 'The lancet is no more endured ; 'The sick to day forget all sorrow, And laugh at both of ns to-morrow. Disease —Dread sire I I use all moans I can, 'To abbreviate the life oi man: I dog bis footsteps from bis birth, “Till he returns to mother earth ; And though ’tis true that my success Is daily growing less and less, 'This satisfaction I can feel, I have not slackened in my zeal, I used all means 1 used of old, Changes of wcalhei—hot and cold, I give them colds ; I give them pains ; 1 rack their bones ; I (ire their veins; I poison them with rancid bile, In place of the digestive chyle, Yet all is useless—nothing kills.
