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. Jt ST A three wheeled Phreton forms the subject of a handsome illustration in the “ Scientific American ” this week While upon the subject of wonders of ingenuity, which have recently been introduced, we cannot but notice the M Calliope,” anew musical instrument iplayed by steam, and affixed to the boil er in such a way as to be played by the Engineer. It is spoken of by the “ Home Journal ” as being beautiful in tone and equal to a Band—and can be distinctly heard at the distance of twelve xoiles. fm 9 & Mia i ia inti. 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. —Now Orleans Delta. 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.” Practice of Medicine. {3?- Doctors SAFFOLD A McCLE.SKET hav ing formed a Copartnership for the practice of Medicine and Surgery in their various branches, offer their services to the public, and hope to re ceive such patronage as experience and merit may authorize. ’-?y - o:iice on Main-street, next door to the Bookstore. nli 3m [3P Tiie Editor of the Newark Mercu ry saysWe feel justified in asserting that LY ON’S KATHAIRON is, besides being the cheap est, the most delightful, agreeable and in all res pects satisfactory hair preparation that we ever met with.

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 Madison family Visitor. WILDS KOLB, Foreman. lIENRV ST. JOHN lIILLSMAN, THOMAS HARRIS, JOSEPH R.

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: J.

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. A. W. HATCH, Druggist, Milwaukie. For sale by all dealers in Medicines. 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 ine without the signature of [ll] FLEMING BROS. For sale in Madison by Du.

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. Notices. From the Boston Olive Branch. The Oxygenated Bitters. Among the many popular medicines which have acquired a high reputation, we believe none have been found of much benefit for dyspep sia, asthma, and similar compluints, till the Oxy" geuated Bitters, by many and various trials and experiments, has been found a sure and radical remedy—a desideratum long desired by physi cians. Its ingredients have been shown by cheir. ical analysis to be harmless and safe; and from the testimonials of many of our first citizens who have been benefited by it, wc feel assured that those iudisposed with the above complaints can rely upon these Bitters with safet}*. These celebrated Bitters have received the highest testimonials ever offered in favor of any medicine. SETH W. FOWLE & CO., 138 Washington Street, Boston, Proprietors.

DAY’S HIAGICAL CLEANSER is the best preparation now known for removing PAINT, TAR, TURPENTINE, VARNISH, Or Grease Spots of every sort or size , from all kinds of Cotton, Woolen, Silk or Velvet cloth, without injuring the color or texture of the goods . Numerous crasivc preparations have been offer ed to the public, but there are serious objections 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 nish after they have had time to become thorough ly dry. This preparation is warranted not to af fect the color of anything which will bear wash ing in soap and water, and will remove old Paint, Varnish and Turpentine as well as fresh. Pur chasers will have their money returned if it fails, in a single particular, to do all that is claimed for it. Try a bottle. For Sale in Madison, at the BOOKSTORE and at the DRUG STORE.

A SURE, safe and reliable remedy for Dinrr f\ hcea, Dysentery, Cholera Morbus, Cholera, 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.

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.
