Old Line W liiffs of Vtminin.
The Old Line Whigs of Virginia met in State
Convention at Richmond on Wednesday, the
10th instant. There were forty-nine counties rep
resented. We copy the following condensed report
from the Despatch of Thursday:
The Convention met in Metropolitan Hall. Over
the platform for the President and Secretaries were
inscribed the memorable and patriotic declaration
ol Heury Clay, “ I had rather be right than bo
President.” On the right of the President’* chair
was placed a large lithograph likeness of Henry
Clay, and, on the left, another of Daniel Webster,
;h** embodiment of W'higgery.
The Convention was railed to order by Mr
Francis IJ. Dean of Lynchburg, on whose motion
William 11. Mocfarland was elected chainnan, and
Mr. Robert Ridgway of Richmond, and Mr. S. T.
Peters of the Lynchburg Virginian, were appointed
H* c rotaries.
Mr. Macfarland briefly returned thanks for the
honor conferred on him ; but acting only tempora
rily as chairman of the meeting to perfect an organi
zation, he did not feel at liberty to enlarge on the
great objects of thin Convention. They had assem
bled to organize the great Whig party of the State,
and he war satisfied it would be found that the
Whigs were animated by the same undaunted spirit
which had heretofore characterized that party. It
Inquired but the zeal oft lie put to make their inOn
ence felt throughout the Union.
Mr. Harper, of Staunton, after a brief preface,
offered the* following resolution :
Ht Aoirrdy That this Convention is exclusively and
emphatically Whig, being called together by those;
who, disclaiming all other political ties and affinities,
inflexibly adhere to their ancient name and princi
ples ami that none others may fairly or properly be
admitted to participate in its deliberations.
The resolution was debated briefly and then with
drawn as being premature.
• in motion, the Delegates present were invited to
come forward and register their names.
When the registering was concluded,M. Johnson,
K*l| , ottered the following resolution, which was
adopted: ,
/(*no lived , That ft committee of seven be appoint
ed to r< j»oit permanent oflicers for the Convention.
Tin- Chair appointed the following gentlemen said
eo.niiuttci' Messr.-. Mannarluke Johnson, William
L Goggin, Alexander Rives, Kenton Harper,
Windham Robertson, John 8. Pendleton, John M.
Mi motion of Mr. Rives, the resolution offered by
Mr. Harper was taken from the table and referred
to the above committee, to be reported upon.
The committee then retired and in its absence,
M< .*srs. Wood Itouldin, of Charlotte, diaries L.
.Mobby, of Lynchburg, K. R. Watson, of Albemarle,
und Vincent Witcher, were severally called Upon,
and nddressed the Convention briefly in bcliaft of
Whig principles.
Mr. M. Johnson, from the committeo of seven,
report! d that the duty assigned .them of recoin
mending oflicers, would readily l»c performed, but
that the committee desired time to give the resolu
t ion referred to them more deliberate considerat ion
I>n mo ion, the committee was continued unti
the afferuocii si ssiou.
Alexander Rives, Esq., of Albemarle, was called
upon, und addressed the Convention in a masterly
~|Yorf. Ho referred to the course of the Democratic
party for several years past—to the civil war iijioii
our Western borders under the administration of
President Pierce- to the filibustering platform up
on which Mr. Buchanan had been placed—and then,
briefly referring to the patriotic and pacific admima
tint ion of Millard Fillmore, and the true statesman
like manner in which In* hud rebuked the factionists
of tin* North, declared that the glorious old Whig
party-—the true friends and defenders of the Union
and the (’(institution—could do no less than give him
a warm, cordial, hearty support. He declared that
tin Democratic party was no longer a national par
ty, blit had been sectionalised by the Cincinnati
Convention ; and therefore urged a national or
ganization of tin* Whig party, i e alluded to the
American party, declared that he heartily endorsed
some of their principles, though be could not sub
scribe to all, and gave as his opinion, that after the
Presidential election, that party would find it neces
my t 0 f H il back into the traces of the National
Whigs, the only true national party.
Mr. Rives was frequently interrupted by applause
during his remarks.
Win. L Goggin, Esq., was next called on, but ex
rn*«-d himself on the ground of lateness of the hour.
||«. promised to respond on another occasion and to
do whatever work may be assigned him by the W hig
* (Mi motion, the Convention adjourned until five
o’clock,!* M.
AKTKNOON SESSIOH.
Tin* Convention assembled at five o’clock, pur
suant to adjournment, Mr. Maefarland occupying
the chair.
Mr Johnson, Emp, from the comnutte on Organi
/niton, presented the following report:
The committee charged with the duty of nomina
ting permanent officer* for the Convention, and re
« oraitu nding rules for its procedure and organiza
tion, beg leave to report as follows : They nomi

j„ nP. I.eigh, of Norfolk; Ur. Thomas Nelson, of
Ijouisa.
Four Secretaries were appointed.
I h*eming the terms of the coll for this Convention
are precise enough, and sufficiently to
i \elude all who do not now' claim to be Whigs,
your Committee think it unnecessary to recommend
uiiy other action on the resolution referred to them,
than to express their opinion that this is evclusive
lv a convention of the Whig party, and it is not to
lie presumed that any person, not included m
the terms of that call, will take seats in this body.
They also recommend the adoption of the rules
of tJic* House of Delegates, so far as they ore ap
plicable to govern the proceedings of this Con
vention.
Mr. Johnson stated that the report was unanimous
ly made by the committee, and he hoped would
inert the approbation of the Convention.
I'lie Chair then put the question on the report,
and it was unanimously adopted.
Wyudham Robertson,Esq., the Presidentelect,
wns invited to the chair, and made a lew happy re
marks, in which he reviewed the patriotism of the
Whig party, and the course heretofore pursued, and
now being pursued by the Democratic party.
On motion of Mr. Maofarlaud, n committee of
thirteen was appointed to prepare a preamble and
resolution*, expressive of the sense of this Conven
tion.

.Mr. Fillmore** Father.
The New York Sxpret* publishes the folk)wing
interacting k tier from a correspondent concerning \
the venerable father of Millako Fillmore and *
the statement he made in his son’s chiWkccd. that
the boy would live to be President of the United
States:
The letter of your Buffalo correspondent. in your
column* a day or two ago, recalls to mind reminis :
censes of an early acquaintance, and of sul»sequ« iit j
intervlews, with the honored father of Ex-President i
Fillmore. As the present position of the son bes-we j
the political world, gives to his personal relation* a j
public interest. I < rave indulgence for Lite following ;
reference to the father. Near tin; close of the last j
Century, the cider Fillmore, with hi fondly, then
consisting of his witc and one child, emigrated from
Vermont to the wild*of western N. Yurt. Tkeywcic
among the pioneer settler* on that portion of the mil- 1
itary land*, now constituting a part of the Cayuga. \
Here Millard was born in the eariy part of the year j
1800. By a failure in the title of the wilderness j
tend, first selected for a farm, the family were soon
dHsp*m*e*e(i. and stripped of the little capita! carried I
with them, to establish and subdue their fores* j
home. Tbair second location was iu an adjoining
township, to which they removed when the son was
in hi* infancy, and when the writer first made their
acquaintance.
The second farm was, like the first, chosen in tin?
primeval forest. The trees were fell* d, and burnt,
and the ground cleared for a iitth space, so t.iat the
log cabin, which was to be the new home, imgnt
be safe from failing timber. They remained on thi.-
farm 25 years, subduing it and converting it into a
comfortable, but humble home. Some thirty years
ago they removed to Erie county, where the father
yet survives, maintaining, as be always did, the
character of an honest, intelligent, and useful citi
zen. His. visits to Cayuga have been but occasion
al since that period. Last autumn the writer met
him there, on what he called his last visit to the
home of his early manhood, and was delighted to
find him at eighty five in a green old age. Always
social and happy—full of anecdote and humor—-it
was very pleasant to see Ik>w wonderfully be retain
ed bis faculties, apparently in their original vigor,
and how happily his peculiar cheerfulness end vivac
ity lightened the weight of increasing years.
"Family hiaUfry and neighborhood events, were of
course tue the subjects of conversation. He refer
red to the first tun*- he met tee writer, then a. little
lad, in company with his honored father, now enjoy
ing the rewards of a well spent life in a better world,
and comparing him with his own children, stated
correctly his age, and referred to many events of
early li/e, of peculiar interest only to the pioneers
of that region. The successful and honorable career
of his won was soon introduced. That he was proud
of him, as every lather of such a son would bt, is
true, but that pride was expressed with becoming
humility, and when told his son discharged the du
ties of the highest office in the world with signal
credit to himself, and great benefit to the country,
he answered that he believed he strove to do his
duty, and it was gratifying to know that the people
were satisfied. The writer stated that he was friendly
to the administration of his son when in office, and
was in favor of his election to the Presidency at the
next term —to which he believed the American peo
ple would call him. He answered he hoped not. —
Millard, said he, has hud honor enough, he retired
from office with a good name. I uin getting old,
my other children have left the State to reside in
the West: he is the only child I have remaining near
me, and I prefer his society to all the fame official
life could give him. If the people elect him, I must
submit. but I would much rather retain him w ithin
call, that, he might minister to me, when sickness or
advancing infirmity disables me.
The question was asked if, in the childhood of his
Hon, he thought he was rearing him for the Presi
dency of this nation. He playfully answered, “I had
au idea that I was.” “How so ’’ was rejoined, ‘ did
you think yourself a prophet ?” “Oh no !” he re
plied, “but I will explain what I refer to. In his
infancy he was physically delicate. His mother oc
casionally expressed fears that lie would not live.
To soothe her anxieties, on one occasion, I said to
her, ‘Be of good cheer ; this lad will live to be
President of the United States. This remark, he
continued, was uttered without tiiougut or delibera
tion ; but 1 presume iny recollection has been car
ried back to it a thousand times since he reached
that high position.
These things, vt r xc, are unimportant, but when
we reflect that they apply to one who now holds the
highest place in the affections of millions of our
countrymen, und unfold a history, most significantly
illustrating the genius of our free and equal institu
tions, they challenge the interest of every fair
minded American.
Suffering among the California Passengers.
The True Californian the following ac
count of the dreaui'u! sufferings endured by the j;as
rtcngei K who left New York in April last for Califor
nia, byway of Nicaragua:—
The steamer Orizoba left New York on the Bth
of April, with Home five hundred passengers for
California, byway of Nicaragua. On the 16th she
arrived at San Juan, and tlie passengers disem
barked. By means of open boats they started up
the river, during a soaking rain. The exposure
caused them much suffering. When they arrived
at Oust ilia they were informed that the transit
across the country was (dosed ; and after two days’
delay, during which they were constantly exposed
to the whether, they were told that if they chose
they could return to New York , but only fifteen
minutes were allowed them ; and as they were com
pelled to abandon their baggage in case they con
cluded to go back, three hundred of the passengers
determined to push on.
They were taken to Granada, where they were
detained a mouth, notwithstanding that an epidem
ic was prevailing there. Here the most fearful dis
ease commenced to rage among them. In four weeks
seventy-nine of the three hundred were buried.—
During this time they suffered every privation—
ninny were without means, and those who had
money were compelled to put up with extortion and
robbery at every hand.
On the 20th of May, in the evening, news reached
Granada of the arrival of the Sierra Newwdaat San
Juan del Sur, and three hours were given the sur
viving passengers, sick mid well, to get on board
the Lake steamer. At the time it was pouring rain
and pitch dark. The sick were carried down in the
best manner possible, all getting thoroughly
drenched. Upon reaching the landing of tin*
Lake steamer, they were kept in the rain until
all had exhibited their tickets, which detained them
several hours. Finally all were crowded on board,
but before morning three of the sick died and were
sent Qii shore.
On the Lake steamer, the scene is described
as having been dreadful. The passengers were
crowded together like sheen in a pen. There
was scarcely room for the sick to lie down. For
nineteen hours they were tlma confined, suffering
every torture of body and ot mind ; several poor
wretches gave up the ghost on the boat, and others
died while attempting the journey from the Lake to
San Juan.
Alter they embarked in the Sierra Nevada the
sickness broke out again, and during the passage
from San Juan to this port thirty three deaths oc
curred.
The sufferings on the Sierra Nevada beggar all
description. The officers of the steamer did all in
their power to alleviate their sufferings, but that
was little. No time was lost in disposing of the dead
and the body was hardly allowed to get cold before
it was thrv wu overboard. The safety of the living
deniaudcd that there shotfld be no unnecessary de
tention of the dead.
The Siena Nevada arrived at San Francisco on
the 6th of June.
Gen. Walker and Ihc Ladies of Nicaragua.
A correspondent of the New Orleans Picaynnt,
writing from Granada, ou the 14 th ult., gives flic
following convincing proof of the popularity of Gen.
Walker:
Gen. Walker arrived here yesterday from Leon,
accompanied by his staff and lialf a dozen men.—
His progress from this place to Leon was a perfect
jubilee. No previous notice »iad been given of his
intention to travel that route, and it was not sup
posed that the authorities of tlie different towns
along the road would have made any preparations to
receive him, but none were needed. The sponta
neous outpouring of the people, and the genuine
joy they seemed to manifest at the presence of the
man wno had relieved them from the misery and
ruin consequent upon civil war, testified as strongly
ua possible the estimation iu which W alker is held
by the natives of this country. At Massays, Mana
gua, Matearas, Nagarote and Pueblo Nuevo, his en
trance was the signal for firing of cannon, rockets,
A-0., accompanied by “ vivas from the entire pop
ulation. At Leon half the city turned out to wel
come him. The President and his Cabinet, the dig
nitaries of the Republic, aud an immense concourse
of the citizens, met the General three miles from
the city, and escorted him to his quarters. Scarcely
had he dismounted when his house was besieged by
an army of w omeu, of all ages, sizes and complex
ions, who were clamorous for a sight of Gen. Wal
ker, as they pronounce it. The General is prover
bially a modest man, and you can imagine his dis
may when, ou making his appearance, he found out
that all the women wanted was an abrazo , (em
brace.) which they forthwith proceeded to bestow
upon him. Hut there was no use remonstrating,
ami he was obliged to submit, with ns good u grace
as he could, until he had encircled the necks and
been squeezed to the bosoms of ull the women pre
sent.
The Weekly Tribune, a strong democratic paper,
published at Manitowoc, Wisconsin, has hauled
down the Buchanan Hag, and declared its prefer
ence for Col. Fremont. In itsisme of July Jd it an
nounces the fact, as follows :—“The name of James
Buchanan no longer floats from the political mast
head of this sheet. Next week we shall enlist under
toe banner of Col. John C. Fremont, and,'sink or
swim .live or die, sur\ ive or perish,' wo shall feel a
soldier's pride in battling manfully under the proud
banner cm equal rights.
Labor-Sayino Machine.—A boot and shoe com
pany for manufacturing boots and shoes by Ber
nard’s patent machine, hasbeeu tonne*l iu England,
with a capital of $600,1100. The machine is said to
supersede manual labor entirely. A factory already
in existence makes by it ‘2OO pairs a day. The ex
penditure of the population of the United Kingdom
tor boots and shoes is estimated at seventy-five
millions of dollars ; aud this company, looking to n
gradual extension of their powers of production,
contemplate an ultimate increase of their capital to

Death of an Old Tkx\.\\— Col, Bob Wilson
known iu Texas as “lionest Bob Wilson,” died on
the 23th ultimo. He was identifier! with the early
struggles of that State tor independence. He for
merly represented it in the United States Senate
from which body he was expelled for rash words
used in debate, but afterwards returned by his con
stituents.
Warning to Slaveholders.—A gentleman of
this town, says the Charlottesville Advocate, had
one of his servants to runaway last Monday, and
having strong reason to suspect that he had been
carried off by some of the Circus Company which
performed hereon Friday and Saturday of last week,
he sent in pursuit of the negro. At O range Court
House his messenger overtook the Circus Company,
ami fouud the negro in the employment of out* of
the hands belonging to the Company. Where such
opportunities of escape are held out to slaves, the
community cannot be too guarded in protecting their
property, by keeping a watchful eye upon such
men.
For Salt Lake City.—Eight hundred English
Mormons, including women and children, passed
through this city ou Monday*, c* route {or Salt Lake.
They took the Chicago and ijivk Island Railroad

A CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA.
OCIKNTIFIC men have more difficulty in overcom
ty ing end controlling the various symptoms of Dyspep
sia, than almost any disease in the world. They are so
various in different individuals and cases, that it has
seemed impossible sometimes to obtain even temporary
relief from suffering. But a medicine has been discover
ed, which proves beyond a doubt, that in most cases a
permanent cure can be effected.
Dr. H. E. Morrill, a skilful physician of New-York city,
in Li.- remarks on Dyspepsia, says: “ The most effectual
medicine to improve the tone and energy of the stomach,
is that prepared by Dr. George B. Green, and ca the
OXYGENATED BITTERS.
I would publish the recipe for preparing this valuable
mcdiciue, if I knew what it was ; but as I do not, I can
only recommend its use. It seems to me to be improper
ly called ‘ Bitters,’ at least in the popular acceptation of
that term—for it contains no alcohol or other spirit, and is
rather .'our than bitter. Though here, by the way, I can
not but earnestly caution the dyspeptic sufferer against
using ‘ Bitters,’ the basis of which is alcohol or other ar
dent spirits. They no more imparl real energy to' tue
atomach than a w hip gives strength to a horse. The
stimulation which they excite is only temporary, and
sure to be followed by a reaction, winch at length will
inevitably wear out the stomach. The medicine of
which I am speaking, obviates these objections.”
We have no hesitation in pronouncing the BITTERS
a sure cure for Dyspepsia. None except those who
have Buffered all the miseries of tLis disease, in its vari
ous forms, can appreciate the value of such a medicine.
Symptoms of the most discouraging nature force the suf
ferer t j believe that his case is so peculiar that no medi
cine can reach it. To all who reason thus, we say, try
the OX YGENATED BITTERS—they have received
the highest testimonials ever given in favor of any medi
cine. Prepared by Dr. GEORGE B. GREEN.

DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER.
'THUS unparalled preparation is receiving more testl-
X nionials of its wonderful efficacy in removing pain,
than any other medicine ever offered to the public. And
these testimonials come not alone from the ignorant, but
from persons of every degree of intelligence and every
rauk of life. Physicians of the first respectability, and
perfectly conversant with the uature of diseases and rem
edies, have recommended this as oue of the most effectu
al in their line of preparations for the extinction of pain.
The Pain Killer is used internally and externally, ac
cording to the nature of the complaint. It has been found
to be an excellent remedy for sudden Cold*, Coughs, Ao.,
Fever and Ague, Asthma and Phthisic, Pain in the Head,
Kiduev Complaints, Piles, Rheumatic Complaints,
Bruises and Severe Burns, Canker, Biles and Ringhams,
Weak Stomach, and General Debility, Painter’s Colic,
Broken Breasts, &,c., Bowel Complaint and Dysentery,
Cholera, Liver Complaint. Dyspepsia, Toothache, &*o.
The genuine PERRY DAVIS PAIN KILLER, is now
put up in panel bottles, with the words Davis’ Vegetable
Pain Killer blown in the glass ; and with two steel en
graved labels on each bottle—one an excellent likeness
of Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine; the
other a steel engraved Note of Hand—none others can be
reiiedon as genuine.
Price of Bottles—l2l cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, and Si,
respectively.
One word in regard to Porry Davis’ Pain Killer. I
have used that in my family for some two years, aud
take great pleasure in recommending it as a valuable
medicine, that should be kept in every family. 1 have
witnessed wonderful speedy cures by its use—recently,
within the last week, I have known a very severe case of
rheumatism soon relieved, and promising a speedy cure,
by this, in my estimation, invaluable remedy.

SCIRRHUS BREAST CAN BE CURED.
LET THE PUBLIC READ!
IX' MERCY to the alliictcd, and the gratitude and
high opinion I entertain of Dr. MOSKLEY as a Surgeon
and Physician, 1 deem it my duty to mention the case of
my wife, hoping, at the same time, that all persons simi
larly afflicted may be benefitted by it. In the first part
of this year, my wife had several small lumps to make
their appearance in her breast. They continued to in
crease in size, until the whole breast became a diseased
mass, and very painful. I procured the best medical aid
in the city of Rome, and notwithstanding the earnest and
faithful attention of the most skilful physicians, she con
tinued to grow worse and worse, until they gave the case
up as incurable, and advised amputation. 1 was advised
by many of my friends to visit Dlt. W. R. MOSELEY,
of Griflin, (4a., which I did, and, astonishing as it may
seem, he had Iter entirely cured within one month, and she
is now in good health! I would advise all who are af
flicted with Scirrhus, and Cancerous, affections, to visit
the Doctor without delay, as I am satisfied by experience
and observation, that he is the most skilful Physician in
the Southern States in the treatment of that horrible dis
ease—Cancer. WILLIAM H. MITCHELL,

IMPORTANT TO PLANTERS!
SOMETHING NEW.
HOWE’S COTTON HARVESTER !
tS now offered for sale to Cotton Planters. This valu-
L able machine, second only to the invention of the Cot
ton Gin, is destined to produce a remarkable change in
the method of gathering cotton from the field. It will do
the work of from throe to five hands in picking cotton
from the stalk, and is eminently a labor-saving machine.
Its benefit to the Planter is incalculable. It picks the
cotton clean from trash, leaves it in excellent condition
for ginning—obviates the necessity of exposing the hands
to heavy dews, rains and cold—and from the rapidity of
its work, will enablo the Planter to prepare his crop for
market at an early day, leaving him time for the improve
ment of his land, houses, enclosures and general .arrange
ment of the plantation.
The improvement wa; first successfully used in the
cotton field by Col. A. H. Blaisdell, in Arkansas, in Sep
tember and October last. It was on exhibition at the
Alabama State Fair, on the 23d, 24th and 25th of Novem
ber last, and since that time it has been at Mobile and
New-Orlcans, where it has attracted the attention of cot
ton growers and met with their uniform approval.
It is light, weighing about six pounds, is suspended by
a strap over the shoulders, and is operated by means of a
crank turned by the baud or fingers. The simplicity of
this machine is its leading feature —it is not liable to get
out of order, aud any negro of ordinary capacity is com
petent to use it. One harvester, with proper care, will
last a series of years.

AT THOMSON, GA.
r rHE undersigned, having permanently located
JL Teachers, respectfully solicit the patronage of thei
friends and the public generally.
From years of experience in teaching, and a constant at
tention to the duties of their profession, they flatter them
selves that the system of instruction which they are now
prepared to give students pursuing a regular classica
course, cannot be surpassed by any similar institution in
the State. To parents, therefore, designing to give their
sons a Collegiate education, their services are especially
tendered, since a thorough acquaintance with the pre
paratory studies is indispensable to the student’s progress
throughout bis whole course. In their Academy pupils
will be prepared to enter the higher classes of College, or
if preferred, thoroughly instructed in a more practical
and business course.
The accessibility, health and quietness of their loca
tion—its freedom from scenes and causes of dissipation—
induce them to hope for a continuance of that liberal
patronage which for many years they have not failed to
secure.
A strict regard will be paid to moral training, and the
general deportment of each pupil carefully observed.
The Academies for the Male and Female pupils are
separate—also, their Boarding Houses ; while the gov
ernment, discipline, course of studies, <fcc.,of both depart
ments, will be under the control and supervision of the
