Conquering the South.
The New York News, on the sub
jeet of the Black Republican’s forcing
Fremont’s administration on the South,
says:
But internal war is not necessary to
effect a dissolution of the Uuion. Let
this purely Northern sectional faction
succeed as above stated, the dissolution
of the States is as virtually effected as
they would be if the two sections of the
country met in hostile array against
each other. It would be a separation
of necessity, by common consent, for
the South has not the same interest in
supporting the Uuion that the North
has. The South is an exporting coun
try, an exporter of a class of agricultur
al products which all the world must
have. Iler cotton, and sugar, and to
bacco, and rice, are the actual necessa
ries of life. No people or nation can
exist without them. The South then
have the markets of the world before
them for their products, and not being
a manufacturing country', her ports
would be open free for the manufactur
ing products of the world. And for all
manufactured articles or luxuries neces
sary for the wants of the people of the
South, Europe would supply her.
Where, then is the market for the
millions of Northern manufactured goods
which now are consumed at the South !
W hat becomes of the immense commer
cial interest, of trade generally, which
we now have with the Southern States,
and out of which so many are growing
prosperous and wealthy ? It is needless
to answer the question. These subjects
then, which our intelligent correspond
ent and mechanical friends hints at
should cause deep reflection. Our mer
cantile and commercial interests, our
manufacturers and all engaged in any
kind of business, as well as the true pa
triot, should pause and study well these
matters. It is a grave subject, and re
quires deep and sober thought. The
great heart of the people is right ; but
they may, through the acts of scheming
and cunning politicians, be led astray
foi a moment, but “ the sober second
thought of the people” will at last sure
ly bring them to right conclusions. Let
them ask themselves, then, in all sober
ness and sincerity, to what do these acts
of sectional politicians lead ? where is
the end and what are the consequences!
Can the North and South re
main together.
The progress of events is daily answer
ing, no. The North cannot be made to
believe that the South is in earnest, and
will abide the consequences of disunion
rather than submit to the arrogance of
Freesoilism, or the wicked schemes of
Abolit onisin. Hence, like the North
American, of Philadelphia, they seek
constant opportunities to taunt us:
“ Slavery, in the abstract, if wrong,
does no harm. We do not contend with
abstractions. Wc do not even go be
yond Mason and Dixon's lino to choke
the viper in the bosom of those who hug
it there. But we protest, in the name
of humanity, in the name of patriotism
against such a spread of the evil as shall
make this great nation, in all its public
acts, but the defender of human chattels.
We protest against a slavery preponder
ance in our national councils. We will
not have our character as a nation tainted
with slavery as a national sin, and our
treaties, our police, our governmental
relations, domestic and foreign, forever
impeded and disturbed with it. The
Kansas struggle has opened the eyes of
the slowly awaking North, and the de
termination is fixed that, while the pres
ent Slave States may keep their own, sla
very shall not be fastened upon us as a
national institution. ’»****
“ In all kindness, we warn the aggres
sors to forbear, iest, in grasping at the
shadowy visions of the Calhoun school
•of politicians, they lose the substantial
protection which is now their safety.
The North can endure much, for the sake
of peace and brotherhood, but it will not
endure complicity in the evils of slavery
extention.”
Protection ! “ ay, such protection as
vultures give to lambs, covering and de
vouring them!” The time rapidly ap
proaches to dispel the illusion, and show
the unanimous feeling of the South to
resist the aggressions of the North at
every hazard. They have no fears of the
result.— Carolinian.

w. Gilmore Simms, LL.D.
A writer iu the Charleston Mercury re
commends, as a just tribute to this ac
complished scholar and writer, and ac
knowledgment of tlio appreciation in
which his literary labors are held by his
own State, that he he appointed to col
lect documents of the colonial times of
South Carolina and compile her history.
He says:
MVe all know that Simms has, for
many years, been engaged iu illustrating,
jn different ways, our early annals, with
that remuneration only which is usually
bestowed upon literature in our country.
He has edited, with signal success as re
gards its literary merits, the Southern
Review, and lost thousands by it. The
facts and arguments of his volume ex
posing Sabine, are continually appropri
ated without stint by public men, and
without any acknowledgment whatever.
Ilis literary labors have been arduous,
and the public benefit great. Would it
not be a graceful and a grateful act, re
dounding as well to the benefit as to the
credit of the State, to send one of her
most conspicuous literary men to procure
from Europe the documents of our col
onial times, and, at the same time, appoint
him to compile our history 1”
Too much of the history of the countrv,
early and recent, has been written by the
enemies of the South, with no end of
Plymouth Roek cant, and covert insinu
ations of holy horror at the abominations
of slavery, This species of pious poison
emanates from the descendants of those
Elect Saints who burned witches and
Quakers, and tortured and exiled help
less old women. Read the bloody code
of Massachusetts Bay Colony. It is
time that historians should arise iu the
South to rectify our history and buret
the bubbles of superior patriotism and
sanctimonious purity set afloat by a
tribe of hypocritical canters and bigots.

Case of Dr. Livingston in Cen
tral America-
Hon. John H. Wheeler has written a
letter to Gen. Ramon Belose, com
mander of the allied forces of Guate
mala and San Salvador, with regard to
the rumored purpose of executing Dr.
Livingston, an American citizen, in Leon,
through retaliation for the execution of
Salizar by Gen. Walker. He says:
Be assured, Sir, that if one hair of
Dr. Livingston’s head is injured, or his
ii’e taken, or that of any other innocent
American citizen, your Government and
that of Guatemala, will feel the force of
a Power which, while it respects the
rights of other nations, will bo ready
and is able to vindicate its own honor
and the lives and property of its citi
zens. Faithfully, yours.
John. 11. Wheeler,
Resident Minister of United States.
“ Ion,” the correspondent of the Bal
timore Sun, gives the following addi
tional information touching the case o*
Dr. Livingston :
“ Dispatches have just been received
at the State Department from our Min
ister tit Nicaragua, Mr. Wheeler, from
which it appears that Dr. Livingston,
our Consul at Leon, has not been shot.
Mr, Wheeler has detailed the circum
stances under which Dr. Livingston had
been arrested and ordered to execution.
The prompt interposition of Mr. Wheel
er saved him. Rivas had, it seems, de
termined to sacrifice Dr. Livingston in
retaliation for the execution of Salizar
by order of President Walker.
“ The treaty now said to have been
made between Lord Clarendon and Mr.
Dallas, for the adjustment of the Cen
tral American question recognizes Walk
er’s Government, and Lord Clarendon
expressed to Mr. Dallas some regret that
Nicaragua had no representation in Lon
don. The terms of the treaty are those
which Walker bad proposed to the Eng
lish authorities. San Juan, under this
arrangement, is to belong to Nicaragua
exclusively, and not to be a free port,
under the protectorate of the United
States and British Governments, as was
proposed by the Webster-Crampton
treat}’.
“ The holders of the Shepherd’s grant
have entered a protest be.'ore (the Brit
ish Government against any treaty not
recognizing that grant.”

Grand Jury Presentments*
We, the Grand Jurors chosen for the Septem
ber Term, 1856, of Morgan Superior Court, res
pectfully make the following presentments:
M e find, through an appropriate committee,
that the Public Buildings are iu good order,with
the exception of the floor in the lower cell of the
Jail, which is considerably decayed and should
be repaired forthwith.
We call the attention of the proper authorities
to the roads generally, that our citizens may have
the necessary facilities for getting their produce
| to market, but wc would call their especial atten
tion to the following, which are reported as being
iu very bad order—to wit: The *oad from the
corporate limits of Madison to Parks’ Bridge via
Buck Head; from said corporate limits via
Brown's Mill and passing Charles P. Shoema
ker’s; the road in the immediate vicinity of
James Fears’ Plantation; the road in Hello Dis
trict via Stephen Jones and Dr. W. G. Ballard’s
to New Bridge on Hard Labor Creek, formerly
called \Y ood’s Bridge ; also the road from corpo
rate limits of Madison to Wellington through
Harris’ District; also that part of the road from
Wade’s Plantation to Elias Alliston’s.
The Bridge on Saudy Creek on the road to
Floyd’s Mill is almost impassible and should be
repaired at as early a period as practicable. Al.
so the Bridge over Hard Labor on the same road
needs some repairs.
We would rocommend the proper authorities
to have a Bridge built across Little River at a
place kuown as Stephen J, Durden’s as we huve
been informed that the neighbors are M illing and
auxious to aid in its construction.
have examined the Tax Receiver’s returns
of the number of children in the county who are
entitled to the benefit of the poor school fund, a
list of whom accompanies these presentments.
In taking leave of His Ilouor, Judge llaiidk
uas, we tender him an expression of our cordial
approbation for his energy and promptness in
the discharge of hiss official duties, and our best
wishes attend him on his Circuit and to his home.
To Solicitor-General William A. Lofton we
express our approbation for his readiness to ex
plain the laws under which we act, and for his ur
banity and gentlemanly deportment towards our
body during this term of the Court.
We desire so much of these Presentments as
arc of a public nature to be published in the

Opinion of the Prominent Druggists of
Cincinnati*
We, the undersigned, Druggists of this
city, have been acquainted with, and sold for a
year or two past, an article of Family Medicine,
known as Perry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer,
and we would assure the public that in every in
stance, so fur as we know, it has given the best
satisfaction to the purchaser; We can recom
mend it to the public as an article
OF GREAT MERIT AND VIRTUE.
Indeed, we never knew an article of Medicine
become so deservedly popular in so short a time
which is proved by the fact of its exteusive sale,
and-constantly increasing demand. Signers:

Dear Sirs : I became your agent without feel
ing any interest in the medicine, but I soon be
came very much interested, upon seeing the hap
py effect it had upon many persons. The increa
sed sales in this State are truly astonishing. I
might have collected any number of certificates
of its great power iu relieving pain, if I had attend
ed to it at the time the cures came under my ob
servation. The least I can say for the Pain Kil
ler is that it truly answers the purpose for which
it is recommended.

Worms! YVorms!!
Various theories have been started rel
ative to the origin of intestinal worms, and yet
the question is a vexed one still among medical
authorities. Os one fact, however, all are inform
ed, and in which all agree—the fatal nature of the
influence they exert on children. At this season
of the year, the attacks of worms are most fre
quent as well as most dangerous. We take great
pleasure in directing the attention of parents to
the Vermifuge of Dr. M’Lane, prepared by Flem
ing Brothers, Pittsburgh. It is one of the most
extraordinary medicines ever introduced to the
public, and has never failed of success when tried.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR.
M'LANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE,
manufactured by FLEMING BROS, of Pitts
burg, Pa. All other Vermifuges in compari
son are worthless. Dr. M’Lune’s genuine Ver
fuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills, can now be
had at all respectable drug stores. None genu

The Grand Secret of Health*
At least one half of our sick population
of both sexes and all ages, might enjoy robust
health if they could only be brought to believe,
practically, that * cleanliness is next to godliness.’
For this reason every invention of genius and
discovery of science that renders bathing a luxu
ry, merits the thanks and patronage of every re
al philanthropist. The “ Balm of a Thousand
Flowers more than any other cosmetic in the
world, effects this object: it impregnates the wa
ter—hard and soft, hot and cold—with a medici
nal property very invigorating to the body, and
gives to it an oily softness, and sweet perfume,
which cause the bather a delicious feeling of per
sonal comfort, purity and health.

have been benefited by it, wc feel assured that

Numerous crasivc preparations have been offer

to all of them. Some merely drive the objection
able substance from the surface into the cjoth, and
it soon appears again; others extract it but at the
same time either destroy the texture or the color.
None of them propose to remove Paint or Yrar

ly dry. This preparation is warranted not to af
fect the color of anything which will bear wash

Varnish and Turpentine as well as fresh. Pur

in a single particular, to do all that is claimed for

Cramp and Pain in the Stomach or Bowels, Chol
ic, Vomiting, Sea Sickness, Heart Burn, Water
brash, or Acid Eructations after eating, Nervous
Headache and other symptoms of Nervous Debil
ity. It is particularly adapted to the cure of
Summer Complaint, Cholera Infantum, Teething
Diarrhoea, and similar Diseases of Children, it
being very pleasant to take and mild iu its oper
ation.
This Remedy was used with perfect success by
Dr. Appleby, the original Proprietor, during a ten
years residence on the coast of Western Africa,
where Cholera, Diarrhoea, and Dysentery, in their
most aggravated forms prevail and have ever
proved so fatal to European residents. Since his
return he has made constant use of it in his prac
tice, and has never known it to fail in Dysentery
and Diarrhoea, when taken according to direc
tions. In the mines of California, where many
fall victims to the Diarrhoea and Dysentery so fa
tal among the miners in that country, it has been
used with eminent success, and has never been
known to fail in giving speedy and permanent re
lief. One letter from the mines says: “YVhen
all other medicines used here have failed, the Di
arrlmoa Specific works like a charm.” Another
says of it: “ The Specific has proved effectual in
every case in which I have known it ustd: two
or three doses being sometimes sufficient to effect
a cure.” YVe have many certificates of the per
manent cure of Chronic Affections of the Stom
ach and Bowels by this remedy, in which all oth
ers hid failed.
It is unsurpassed in the cure of many dis
eases peculiar to females.
The Medicine is now prepared under the direc
tion of one of the first Chemists and Physicians
in Massachusetts.

A NEW COOPEU I
JUST PUBLISHED,
SARATOGA :
| A TALE OF 17-t> 7.
A J&manee of American Border Life. One, co].
■time, 12 mo., Muslin, Brice $1.25. M
AMERICAN Novelists have of lute confined
themselves mainly to sketches of social and
domestic life. They hSrc aimed to produce minia
tures and cabinet pieces rather than historical pic
tures. The author of Saratoga has ch«*eu a large
canvas, and has wrought with a bidder hand.
By placing thegpene of bis story on what was
tlion the" verge of civilization, and portraying
characters trained in all the exigencies of border
life, he has constructed a narative full of startling
incident and thrilling adventure, without viola
ting the probabilities of history. The bold, cau
tious woodsman, Suiuly Brigham, the watchful,
taciturn Indian, Cat foot, and the wily, revengeful
half-breed, Joe, will compare favorably with the
best dclimutions in the “ Leu the rs toeicing Tales”
of the great American Novelist. Since CooPKK
put forth his earlier and better novels, no Ameri
can author has written a work of this class pos
sessing merits equal to this tale of life on the bor
ders.
The title of this book gives us to know at once
the nature of its contents. It abounds in inci
dents of an exciting character.
