1.1 u tojudjc of tii; •• reasonableness” of the
cJtfrltJdif, **-iitu!’*r a liberal eousirnetion of the
a*t.” Oeinoustraliou cannot make language
more clear, than is that of the law.
There was another no less forcible reason why
the Legislature should adopt /his comse. TTie
clothing, •* bethel purchased at high or low pri
f;*s, for rich or poor men, had proven ahi'ost an
enti'e loss tj the soldiers. They weir, hy the
cnmmamlins; general in Florida, prohinited from
carrying tS:eii clothing on ilie utaich with iliein,
saving a p lir of pantaloons and a shirt, besides
lint on their person, warm weather had com
menced, and their overcoats could not he worn,
they were therefore left at the camps. The gov
eminent had no close stores in which they could
he secured ; the clothing was left hy the order of
its o|fi*'er, and tlie result was. that nearly every
article was lost. The Legislature then deter
mined to pay for the clothing, and in ttie same
net required our representatives in Cmigiess to
oht .in the passage of a law refunding the money.
The Federal Government tvat equally hound to
the soldier for his losses, and viewed in that, il no
other light, the act of our Legislature may he
considered as the kind interlereuce ol ilie fcsiatc,
to assist its citizens in obtaining compensation
for llit-ir losses. The prosecution of the claim
hy the State, would cost tt nothing. The citi
7/mi would loose his Turn befn e he would go to
\Vashiiigl3ii to spend a s ssi iii of Congress to
obtain pi > for his overcoat. \VI v, then has
li v. Schlev iindeit <k* n to eon title away ilie
law of th** Legislatin’ f If the lepreseniaiives
ul Ilie people h ive passed a la* which is axnav
aiMot, they aie responsible to ill* ir coostttnuls

Itis power to sav- them from their Vengeance.—
What if the soldier I! id an overcoat worth thirty
tlollars. Sc when c t!l*d into s-rvice tVould not buy
aurttller of less value, and should Siisiain its loss
Hie l.egislature vvas w lllinp. to assist him in ob

“A REFUGE OF LIES.”
If ever this prophecy waa truly and literally carried
out in our day, it baa been by the V'tm Biis*-eH papers of
Georgia, during our present political content. Tlieir re
>*ort, will) scarcely an exception in assailing their oppo
nent*!, lias cither hern downright falsehood, or tiie most
wilful perversion ami misrepresentation offucts ami doc
uments. Week after work have they exhibited detached
sentences of 11 Message of Mr. Gilmer, hy which means
they were enabled to give it an entire different meaning
from the oiigiilal. ‘J hey have falsely charged him with
endeavoring to build up privileged classes, by an effort
to exempt the students of Franklin Gollesc from military
duties in lime of war; they assuil him with an impudence
scarcely to he believed,for doing that in which they and
their candidate had participated; charged our party With
being allied to, and leagued with the Abo* iTiOMbTSj
that we would, if in our power, at once slop all internal
improvements; and as the consummation of impudence
and hardihood, they have endeavored to make the public
believe that their federal blue-light Governor is a “ntM
ocrat ol the Jeffersonian School!!”
Their last and most desperate effort at falsehood and
misrepresentation, is now to pervert the testimony of
Capt. Mcrriwether, and impugn the vcia< *•
commanding officcis of Maj. Cooper's Battalion, in the
Florida campaign, and oilier individuals substantiating
their claims on the State, for necessaries purchased under
authority ofthe Governor, for the comfort of the soldiers.
To show to what despicable and miserable shifts they
will resort to hide the facts, (and mislead the public
mind,) when they have been made ns clear as frequent
publication, and the testimony of honorable men, whose
veracity was never before questioned, could make them,
wo will give the following article from a correspondent
of the Columbus Sentinel, (lor the Editors appear to
have more prudence than to claim tne parentage of that
which they know to he absolutely false, although they
hick the moral principle to refuse to be the medium lo
circulate the fuheliood ofothers.)

It in charged, or it in left to be implied by all these
writers, that Cnpt. Merriwether purchased the articles
named: such ha Sperm Candle*, Bologna ♦Sausages,
1 Fine Apple Cheese,Champngi.e, 6lc. while by referring
to his letters, and to oilier facts that have boon published,
it has been distinctly stated, over and over again, that
he uover rendered u bill for any mu h article#—that nil he
claim# pay lor are necessaries for Lift soldiers, garb
the Governor had authorized him to purchase, and for
such as the Governor himself had paid for in Milledgc
vilie—that the statercenta of both r4li?(>rs und correspond
ent* are wilful ard palpable falsehoods
If 11 bill has beau rendered to tho Goverr.dr for these
articles, why doe# he not inform the public by whom it
it was rendered. If Capt. MerriwetheFi accounts, and
the account* of all liiO ether CnpUins of Maj. Cooper*#
Battalion, which #r# unpaid, ara not for proper articles,
why do they not publit-h that fact, instead of saying thnt
somebody has chargf‘l the State for certain articles not
known aserrldicrs ratiuna or clothing? Pchnps it may
he the Governor himself or Gen. STknford, who has made
such charges. Let the pul.lie know who the officer is*
and reject thf bill. But hy wliat rule just an,l correct
accounts are rejected, because improper ones havo boon
jiresented by other indivuala, is past all our knowledge
in transacting business, or of justice.
No evidence has been yriren, or ran he giten
Capt. M.’i accounts are improper or extruvugnuf, or atich
as the Governor has not paid. Why then are they re
jected ?
There are n f*.’w convincing farts that can he easily
arrived at in this vicinity, ami to thnj9 who lnow , and
haw felt something in theae matters, we will refer lor
evidence of the luxuries and etiraeatrance of our volun
; teer officers. Let any man who w isher- to know the na-
I tore of the accounts which are neouid, apply to Ed-
I inn ml Bussell, f'rnfl A Lewis, Joint L. Jones, John
| Rutherford, Finekard Si White, Wm. F. Rowland, Fat
rick Si Martin, Wlll. IL Burdsall, F. B Weed, Robert
Kelton, Smith, Rogers Si Cos. Geo. W. Price Si Cos. 11. B.
Dill Sl Cos. merrhnr,t* of our city, who can ntiy day he
found, and ask them if they have accounts contracted hy
1 the officers of Maj. Cooper’s Battalion, and chtirged to
the State, for Champagne Wine, Bologna Sausages,
Fine Apple Cheese, Beef Tongues or Fly Market Beef,
or Broadcloth ('oats at $-M), or Puntaloons at sE>* We
think they will find tlmt some ofthe indigent soldiers
here got the poor luxury of a blanket and a cheap over
coat, suited to the inclement season at which the volun
teers embarked for Florida; all of which were patriotic
ally furnished at from ten per cent above cost, down to
the actuul cost of the goods.
Let them also ask Messrs. H. A, J. Shotwrl! if the
Medicines they furnished the volunteers, were Fine Ap
ple Cheese, Fly Market Beef or Champagne Wine? ij
/ W f# the reason why they hare not been paid 7
Let them also inquire if these luxuries of the camp
prevented the Surgeon who actompanied the volunteer,
to Florida, from being paid? Or was a surgeon too
| great a luxury for sick soldiers, to ho paid for by Gov
| S( btey.
I.e it also be ascertained tho cause why the Governor
1 refused to pay the Rlhh Cavalry for subsistence for
themselves and their horses until they joined the army ?
Did they feed their horses on Bologna Sausages, Pine
Apple Cheese and Beef Tongues ? Wa* this the reason
that the food for the horses, or even the n.en, could noi
be paid for.
VN e are informed that our prudent Governor has given
thorn to understand that they paid too much for th ir pro*
visions, (which was s•* for a soldier and horse for two
and a half days on n forced march ; and obliged to pro
| cur - ’ subsistence where, and nt whatever price it could
‘be found, or to go without it.) If this he too high n
price, or above the ordinary cost of a soldier’s raron#’
was that a sufficient reason thnt their claims should he
rejected entirely ?
| But it is asked hy these kennel presses, what motive
could Governor Schley have in refusing to pay these
accounts? Why, with such a man ns Gov. Schley
there was reason enough. He made no contract of any
kind, with nnv one in this place, without making objec
tions to the reasonableness of the several charges. He
’ puspected the honesty of all with whom he hud any
dealings: he was continually murmuring and complain
ing ol exorbitant prices, and imputing improper motives
to them. Gov. Schlev is n man of such callihrr. that
j he would assume more credit in jew ing a merchant, or
1 beating him down in his chargee, than by any act either
civil or military w hich a high minded and patriotic func
tionary could he emulous of achieving.

could not have attempted to make such a use of it.

Tho Telegraph assails the People’s Press of Angueta
for repeating w hat lie says, arc “ the mean
of the Macon Messenger,” and soys, “ the Telegraph ha*
never asserted thnt tiie anti Van Boron party (of the
South) was identified with the Abolitionists.” The old
adage, that he who utters a falsehood will not refuse to
swear to it,” is verified in the following quotations from
from the Telegraph of the 27th Jun‘, with which we beg
leave to refresh the memory of our veracious or forgetful
neighbour.
“Nullification in the South is Abolitionism in the
North, and mobisin every where. It is die spirit ofrebel
-1 ion aguinst law, against government,against good order.”
; “ The nullificr* and abolitionists profess to he decidedly
opposed—yet we see them Pigoing together to defeat the
measures of til’ administration, to embarrass the coun
try, aid its enemies, nnd bring the government into con
tempt.” “ The combination of Nullifirrs, whig Aboli
tionists and Tnriffi tos, disorganize™ of every hue and
grade throughout the land, are responsible for all the
evils the country is rirtw suffering.’*
These urea few of the many items which prove how
far the assertions of the Telegraph this week are sustain
ed by those of last, or of so recent a date as to he forgot-
I ten by no one hut the editor. It is also not forgotten by
others, tnat this same Editor, assailed the act of our Leg
, islature of 1031, offering n reward for the apprehension
! of Garrison nnd Knapp Editors ofthe Liberator—that he
maintained that their papers were“perfectly harmless!”
| “ much more so than our patrol laws”—for which ni t of
kindness he was Hailed by the blood-hounds of Abolition
ism. by the Liberator itself, as “u / imd and co-worker in
the land of man stealers.” Will he tell us how many
Abolitionists were found “ Pigging” w ith the nullifWs
when the vote to reject their Petitions wns taken in Con
gress ? Why did he not tell us who Grati. and, Hayses,
Cleveland, and Hoi.sey, were found nssocirted with on
thnt important question, Which involved mff rights nnd
interests and the future peace nnd safety ofthe Union ?
Has he ever censured them for that vote ? Has any Van
Bitrort or I’ffion psper In Georgia ever censured them
: for it? We call on the Editors of those papers to come
out boldly nnd either di-;clniui or justify that proceeding of
| their representatives. Let the public know whether the
; feelings of their pa rtv were properly represented hv their.*
in that vote. Wc w ish to make no “ misrepresentations”
