Tlie weather for the past week has been cool and
pleasant, and yesterday morning our vicinity was

Wo copy below from the last ‘Macon State
Press, an ablet.editorial in denunciation of Ste
phen A. Douglas, whose traitorism to the South
on the Kansas question, has sunk him so low
in the estimation of all true Southern rights
men that the hand of* reserrection will never
reach him. Wo think the Stale- Press is right
in its position. If wrong, then we are wron ;

Senator Albert Gallatin Brown, in bis late
speech, concluded in a very sickening and nau
dating style to our very great surprise, by pay
ing homage to Mr. Douglas, and buoys him up
merely because they agree on one question alone,
and insinuates that he ia a “great man,” while

This is safest and best for the farmer, as a gen
eral rule. In this city we have two very large
and commodious warehouses, that of T. H
Johnston & Co., and Sims & Rust, both being
far removed from the danger of fire, no fears

they have regular night guards to prevent the
possibility of accidents of any kind. We say
therefore to all, for fear your Gin Houses may
burn, bring your cotton to market and sell, or
store it where it will be safe and free from dan

-Mr. Editor OWDemokrat” in the last
ssue of the Argus, has seen proper to speak in
terms of ridicule and condemnation of the Dem'-
ocratic meeting held in Bainbridge on the 18ln
shape of a political meeting that has ever been
(his) misfortune to witness.” Now Mr. Editor,
“An 0(d Democrat” casts ridicule upon him
self in thus speaking of this meeting,Tor he was
not simply a witness, as his language would
seem to iudicate of this “farce in the shape of a
political meeting,” but an actor in it—an im
portant and conspicuous participant in the pro
ceedings. Now if the meeting was a farce,
the part he played was farcical, and to be con
sistent and just, he ought to have ridiculed and
condemned himself with the rest, and not writ
ten his communication as though he were sim
ply an eye witness—an idle spectator looking
oii with mingled amusement and disgust. You
will see in iny answer to his main objection to
the meeting, how active and conspicuous he
, was, and judge whether he considered it the
little thing he now represents it to have been.

Thanks,
We return our thanks to Prof. John Darby, of
Auburn, Ala., fora bottle of his newly invented
“Prophylactic Fluid. This Fluid, we are pleased
to learn, is growing in importance and in general
It is used principally in sick rooms, in any
kind of sickness, and may be taken either internal
ly or externally for man or boast as the case may
require. It ia highly recommended in cases of
typhoid fever, erysipelas, putrid sore throat, saliva*-
lion, and for burns, sores, ulcers,and all such cases
where the same result is desired, that ot cleansing
and purifying this fluid has no equal.
Prof. Darby is not a physician, but rank# aaone
of the most learned and scientific Chemists in.the
United States, and therefore this Fluid cannot
rightly be considered a quack nostrum.
We append the following from the Auburn Ga-
zettte, of Sept. 9tb, 1858, which speaks in well
merited terms of this disinfecting agent, and hope
the advice therein contained will be generally fol
lowed. r

Darby’s Profktlactic Fluid.—This prepara
tion ia entirely the result of science. It is no hap
buzzard, but a scientific victory. Prof. Darby is
no man to “humbug” the people. He is incapa
ble ol deception. He speaks the troth, no matter
whose interest suffers \ff it. We know the man,
and ipealc as we know of him. ’

It is exactly what he represents it. We prophecy
that in ten years, a bottle of this Said will be as
indispenaibie in every household as a pepper-box or
salt-stand.,: We are in receipt of opo gallon, and
for some purpose it is called into requisition every
day-i-for bites, barbs, braises, cuts, colic, tpoth-
. wash, skin-purifier,or something. Tty one hot

ger in hot pursuit, he made one hound and over
the fence he went like india-rubber, and was
off from there in double quick time. With the

ve concluded that “Old Trout’’ was doing ids
men running. Tito next day he returned, and
has since behaved so well, that we have conclu
ded not to chap him up for table use.
We. now warn all barking dogs hereafter to
desist, or “by the blood of an Englishman” the
price of sassengers shall fail below present quo
