The New-Orleans Price-Current, of September 1, publishes an interesting review of the business of the past twelve months in that city. It congratu lutes its planting and commercial friends on the phnonzcontrast the present season presents w:th that immediately preceding it, when the European war and the extraordinary drought senously inter fered with business prosperity. The extent of tne season’s oprsmtiona and the magnitude of the trade, are partially indicated by the value of the products from the Interior, which amount, according to the annual valuation table, to $144,256,081, against sl]/,Bi6.Hg3ks4 year, and $45,7)6,045 in 1841-42, ami tbi? in spite of the fact that the last Sugar crop wa* more than 200,000 hogsheads short of the mail man product of 1853. According to the Custom House records, the total value of exports of Produce and Merchandize, of the growth and manufactu e of the United States, for the fiscal year euded June 30th, was $110,353,436, against $83,120,218 last year; showing an increase of $27,233,218, or over 30 per cert. The value of Foreign Merchandize and Specie imported in lire same period wa-» $17,- 183,327, against $ 1 last year; showing an inert ase of $5,250,710, or about 37£ V cent. There is no record of the value of the hundreds of cargoes of domestic and foreign merchandize and produce imported coastwise, but it is supposed the value of property, including produce, merchandize, arc vessels that has passed the mouth of tire Missis sippi, inward and outward, during the past year, exceeds two hundred and fifty nbillions of dollars. Tl.<-operations of the Branch Mint during the past year, show a further slight decrease in the De posill*. but an increase in the Coinage. The total deposit* of Gold and Silver, for the year ending 31 hi July, were $2,720,032, again-t $2,938,200 the | year previous ; showing a decrease of $218,238. Tne i-oinage during the same time has been, of Gold G< 35d pieces, of the value of $525,500, and of Silver | 5,361,000 pieces, of the value of $2,936,000. Total i value $3,161 ~000, or an increase of $ 1,255,240. I With respect to the market prospects of the com j ing crops, th-.-e of Wheat and Indian Corn are j known to be unusually abuudant, and Cotton thus f.r fair promise, but the Sugar production I must inevitably fall to a very low figure, while that of Tobacco will be materially less than the crop of j last year. i The rev iew of the business of the past year is full , o. interest, and we make copious extracts, as welj I to show the immense produce trade of that city as ; the fluctuations of the market, j Coi i on. —The in&rket opened unusually early upon the new erop ; tne receipts being greatly in ad vanc*-of any previous season, and thus there was afforded Hf-ope for operations at an unusually early j>- The iii>t receipt of new crop wan on the j 26tl* July,from Mississippi, and up to the Ist Sep tember there had been received 213.282 bales of the | new crop; being an amount nearly three times I greater limn had come to market in the same period j in any previous year, and exceeding the receips to ! the same time in th*; big-crop year of 1852-53 in the i amount of 18,205 bales. The year opened with a 1 good enquiry ai a range of 84 to cents for Low | Middling to Middling, and soon the demand be * ame unusually active, resulting in sales during the month of 96,000 bales against receipts of 124,000 bales; being much the largest business ever done in the month of September. The bulk of the business was done at a range of 85 to 9Jc for Low Middling to Middling. Owing to unfavorable news from Europe, prices gave way early in October, and fluctuated during t L«- month between * $ a 8 and 8g a 9$ cents for Low H idling, with reported sales of 151,- 600 bale*. The foreign advices continuing unfavor- I able the market about the inidnle of November | reached it* lowest point, which was 7 \ <i7\ for Low ; Middling and 7| ttSf for Middling, but soon recov i < red again, under a favorable turn in the Liverpool ! market, and a decline iu the rates of freight. The j reported sales of the month were 193,500 bales, ; and the extreme fluctuations 7£ d 7| and */ 9| for t J/oxv Middling t** Middling. The month of Decem ber opened at &{'a 9| cents extremes for Low Mid dling to Middling, but under adverse accounts from Europe, prices gave way again, dosingal »i«B|, with reported sales during the month of 214,400 baler. January opened at a B|, and the market recovered daring the month to 8J a 9 cents. Repor ted sales 241,400 bales. February was entered up on at a range of 8] w 9 cents for Low Middling to Middling, but rose about the middle of the month to 84 a9l cents. Reported sales of the month 209,000 bales, in March the opening prices were ßs cr ; 9|, with an active demand, which continued through the month, and with lower rates of freight u further slight advance was realized, the extreme quotations at the close, for I x)w Middling to Middling, being 8 1 '/ 9£ cento. 'l’ll** reported sales of the month were jj-S,SUO bales, embracing one week of 85,500 bales ; being the largest w<■< k s business by 5800 bales ever transacted in this market, and exceeding the re ceipts of the week in the amount of 32,600 bales.— ()ne day’s sales, embraced in the week reached 20,- 000 bales, which was the largest amount ever sold in one day in this market. Early iu April the rates reached 9</ for Low Middling to Middling, and continued to move upward, attaining at the close to 10$ a 10|, with some few sules reported at 11 cent.- for Strict Liverpool Middling. The amount of sales reported (during the month was 214,700 bales. At this point of the market there was quite a general withdrawal of buyers for shipment , the rapid appreciation of prices, mainly through specu lative movent* 1 its, having thrown the rates too far beyond their limits. Under these cire in ns lances May opened at 10 a 10] cents for Low Middling to Middling, and closed at 9 -a 10$, with reported sales for the month of 131,000 bales. At the opening of .1 une the stock on sale was re duced to an unusually low point for the period of tin* s»*:ison, and consisted mainly of the grades be !- w Middling, while the demand was almost exclu ively for clean Cotton, ranging from Strict Middling i » Good Middling and Middling Fair, which descrip tions were very wN*u*ce, and generally held above the orders or views of buyers. Under these circum .-lances, and with continued light receipts, the amount of business rapidly fell off, though what little was d<*ne was at ful l iter advanced prices, the mar ket opening at 9g a 105 for Low Middling to Mid dling, und closing at 104 H cents, with reported s-.ces for the month of 53.400 bales, against receipts in the same period of only 30,000 bales. And with ilu* month ot June the busiuess of the season may In- said to have virtually closed, as the stock on side had become so reduced, and prices had so ap pitrialed, that the great majority of buyers had closed their season’s operations and taken their de parture. The entire sales of July and August bare ly amounted to 29,000 bales, against receipts of on ly 15,500 bales, and the prevailing prices were 10 a 104 1 cuts for Low Middling and 104 « cents for Middling. The fieosqp closes with a stock unsold, iu first and second hands, not exceeding 2,500 bales, a part of which is low Cotton, of the old crop, which lias long been held under limits. The total reported sales during the seasou sum up 1,862,500 bales, which is about 100,000 bales in excess of the re ceipts, bpt probably this excess does not fully indi cate the extent of the local speculative movement, as occasional sales of considerable magnitude are mad** which are not allowed to reach the public. And thus has been disposed of with a promptitude and rapidity without a parallel, the largest amount of Cotton ever received at this port, in any one year, and at an average of prices, too, that must !.e highly remunerative to the planter, while we are pleased to learn that Ihe general Cotton account, eurreut for the year, between this country and Eu rope, is likely to present a fair balance on the credit side. The total receipts at this port since the Ist Sep tember last, from all source*, are 1,759,293 bales. This amount includes 65,329 bales received from Mobile, Florida and Texas by sea ; and this being deducted, our receipts proper, including 37,031 bales received direct from Montgomery, Wetumpka, *fce., are shown to be 1,693,964 bales : being an increase us compared with las year 0f445,797 bales, and an tof 89,975 bales. The total ex poris since the Ist September are 1,795,023 bales, of which 986,622 bales were shipped to Great Britain, 211,811 to France, 341,487 to the North and South ot Europe, and 222,100 to United States ports. The total receipts at ail the Atlantic and Gulf ports, up to the lat* st dates received, as shown by our Gene ral Cotton Table, are 3,492,658 bales : but the ac tual crop, when mode up to the Ist September by the New York Shipping and Commercial List, with the difference of stocks at Augusta and Hamburg, receipts overlaud, Ac., will not be far from 3,520,- 000 bales ; an increase of 672,661 bales as compared with the crop of hist year. Tables from 1811 to 1856 show that the Cotton .- lonesold in New Orleans within the past twelve years, has yielded a gross product of $539,838,665. As for the new crop all estimates are avoided. — Probably in no former year was there so small a proportion of the old crop left in the interior, where as in the receipts of last year it is estimated that there were included about 150,000 to 200,000 bales of the crop of 1854. Thus the supply this year will depend almost exclusively upon the year’s produc tion. The first bale of the new crop came from tho southernmost part of Texas, and was received at the unusually early period of 15th July, but the first bale from the Mississippi Valley was not received until August 6th, which was eleven days later than the first receipt from the same section last year, and the total receipts of new crop up to this date are only 1166 bales, against 23,282 bales last year, with every motive to scud forward early. Os this quan tity about 4(H) bales have been sold, iu small lots, generally at a range of dling to Middling Fair. Sugar. —Tho season opened upon unfavorable prospects for the Sugar Crop, ami it was generally estimated at quite an early date, that the deficiency, as compared with the previous year (when the crop was 346,635 hogsheads) would be at least 100,000 hogsheads. The estimate proved to be sufficiently accurate for all practical purples, as the actual crop, according to the Annual Statement of Mr. 1\ A. Champomier, was found to be 231,427 hogsheads, viz -192,391 hogsheads Brown Sugar, made by the old process, 23,265 hogsheads Refined and Clarified aud 5771 hogsheads Cistern Bottoms, the last being an estimate of 3 per cent on the product of Brown Sugar. The hogsheads are estimated to a> erage 1100 pounds; giving a total for the crop of 254- 569,000 pounds. This was the product of 1299 Sugar-houses, against 1324 the year before, aud of these 938 use steam and 361 use horses as their motive power. The turther large deficiency in the crop has been productive of a higher range of pri ocs than we remember to have been attained since the remarkably short crop of 1835, and thus the ag gregate gross returns have been within about two millions of dollars of the value of the previous crop. The first hogshead of the new crop was received here on the luth October, being only six day? later Lian the first receipt of the previous year, but it uus not takt a as any indication of the general for warduessof the crop* which was usually uubackward, rendering the grinding season late aud precarious. The first traufaetious on plantation were noticed in the early part of February, aud from time to time considerable sales were repo’rted at 61. 6s, 7. 7^,75, 77 , 7], 7’, B,B], 8L B|. 9, and ceuts V pound. The receipts at the levee since Ist September have • < n 15 >.-U9 hogsheads, against 189,, 42 hogsheads last year, or a decrease of 34,423 hogshead. This .ows an unusually large proportion of the crop has come to the city, as the deficiency of the crop is 115,208 hogsheads. The estimated stock on hand at the close of last s< a>on was 10.000 hogsheads, and this amount added to the cr0p—231,427 hogsheads—would make a sup p;vot24l 42. hogsheads. The distribution of tins - ply, as nearly as can be ascertained, has been as *\> s ; Shipments to places out of the State, as >vu by our tables, aud including the exports I oinjAttakapas, 52,400 hogsU-nds consumption of t:.e city and neighborhood. 30,000 kgrinM ta k. a for refilling in the city and other pans of the State, including Cistern Bottoms, 8,000 hogsheads -. estimated quantity taken to fill up hogsheads for 1-V.600 hogsheads . stock now on hand in : the State estimated at 5,000 hogsheads; leaving as t c quantity token fertile West 131,027 hogsheads, agaiust 142,963 hogsheads las-t year,or a decrease of lt,t*36 hogsheads.' The quantity shipped to Atlantic p. its is only 39,133 hogsheads. agUiiist 129,963 hogs . ..ns last year-, showing a decrease of 82.830 hop* The coming crop will doubtless be the shortest, in proportion to the «-xteut of ground cultivated, that .. a * oevured since 1835. when the yield was estima te fi i ;•> .1 *• hogsheads. There Las been a gradual c hanging, tor some years past, from the Sugar cul ture To Sat of Cotton, for we find by Mr. Cuampo mier’s statements that while in 1552 there were 1481 Sugar houses, in 1855 the number had been reduced t > 1299 . showing a decrease in three years of 182. We also know tuat there has been a further material iiecrc-ase this year, hut the great falling off in the crop i> referable to tu damage from the remarka ble continuance of cold and wet weather during the puc. winter. At all events the crop must be a short j oue as tne extreme estimate named is 125,000 , a<is. while some mark as low as 80,000 hogs beans, an amount altogether insufficient for the require meats of the West alone, and calling for an unusual ly r e import of foreign Sugars. ' m issj—According to the Annual Statement of Mr. 1* A Champomier the product of *ast year s crop of cane, estimating sixty gallons to each lUUO ll>. : Sugar, was 15,274,140 gallons, against 23.- II •>,620 gallons last year, or a decrease of • ,839,480 • gallons, and 15,725,860 gallons less than the estima ted product of 1853. | This large falling off in the supply, together with ! the high cost of Sugar, has been productive of a high er range of prices thau we ever remember to have been attained in this market, and the gross return j has actually exceeded that of the larger crop of last j year, the average of the season being 30 cents per gallon against 18$ last rear. The arrival- at the Levee during the past sea • son have been 288,811 barrels, against 310,718 bar -1 ; rels, last year, showing a dec rest of 21,907 barrels. The first t;aks reported on plantation were about | the middle of November, and the principal sales were in December and Jaouaiy. The rarge of prices ' i for crops in ( -e cisterns Las been as follows : In 1 November 22 a 24; December 25,28, 30 and 32; ! Janizary 32,32 J, 32 j and 33; Feburuary 32 d 331 > ! March 31 d 32; April 33; May 35, and June 40 a J 44. leaving few desirable crops remaining unsold.— ' The extreme range last year was 12£ cents in De cember and 25 cents iu May. The quantity shipped to ’Atlantic ports, according to our tables (whicli include the exports direct from Attakapas: is cq»al to about 4.335,000 gallons, agaiiii-t 8,487,88 J gallons last year. This amount being deducted from the whole crop of 15.725,860 gallons, as estimated by Mr. Cliampomier, there would be left, f*»r the consumption of the West and South, 11,390,860 gallons, against 18,625,120 gallons last year. Tobacco. —The total receipts at this port since Ist September, are 56,090 hogsheads, which amount in cludes 4,810 hogsheads Strips, and 1,584 hogsheads Stems, and the quantity inspected during the same period is 42.358 hogsheads, of which 1,450 were Mason County. The year closes with stock on hand, including all on shipboard, of 9.125 hogsheads, ol which there are unsold, in first and second hands, about 7,000 hogsheads. With respect to the growing crop, it seems to be generally conceded that it must be materially short of the product of last year, aa the planting in conse quence of unfavorable weather, was delayed until an unusually late period, and in many sections con tinued drought prevented the usual favorable pro gress. A hogshead of llie new crop, from Tennessee, the first of the season, was received on Monday, being thirteen days earlier than the first receipt iaot year. Export? for thf.

Geo. C. Bates, of Cali fornia, and the truth of which is endorsed by the New York Times. It appears from this narrative, that, late in September, 1855, the leading men of the Democratic party, North and South, had fixed their attention upon Fremont as their candidate for the Presidency, and that overtures were made to him with a view to his assent to the nomination, by noless a person than Governor Floyd, of Virginia, but the negotiations were finally broken off, by rea son of a difference of opinion upon the Missour Compromise. Those, however, who will read carefully the whole story, as appended to these introductory com ments, will find that this apparently heroic rejec tion of a tempting proposal, was not quite of so magnanimous a character as it appears at the first glance. Iu their eagerness to serve Col. Fremont, his friends have unintentionally let us into the se cret of his political continence. He was in treaty , at the time, with the party by whom he was subse quently nominated , and adroitly made use of the mission of Gov. Floyd to bring that party to terms , for ice b arn that immediately on the withdrawal of the Virginia commission, a telegraphic dispatch was sent to Mr. Banks and Senator Wilson, who at once hastened to New York, where they were closeted with the redoubtable Colonel, and did not leave him until the scheme of Lis nomination, by the Republicans, was perfected. All the prelimi naries being satisfactorily arranged, the pathfinder unpacked his truuks—for it will be observed that, growing weary of delays, aud, perhaps, hopeless of bringing the negotiation to a successful conclusion, he was in (he act of ntarting off to revisit his auri ferous domain of Mariposa—and quietly settled him self in New York, waiting, like the respectable gen tleman delineated by Dickens —for “something to to turn up.” It was a bold game to play, but he managed his cards so cleverly that the knaves seemed to fall into his hands as if by instinct, and he could soon count trick for trick with the party whose nomination he had declined. To a man of even ordinary sagacity it needed no exercise of profound thought to understand how slender the possibility of Mr. Fremont’s nomination would have been had he suffered his name to go be fore the Cincinnati Convention as the competitor of Pierce, and Douglas, and Buchanan, and with the weight of the government officials against him. As the Republican nominee, he had a clear field, and at least an equal chance of reaching the Presi dency; while the mere fact of his name being brought before the Cincinnati Convention would have effectually precluded him from becoming the candidate of any other party. It is, therefore, clear that Col. Fremont not only sacrificed nothing by discountenancing the Democratic proposition, but that in fact it was of advantage to him in a different way, as the sequel proves that he forthwith made use of this very proposition as a lever by which to bring the Republicans to terms. The following are the disclosures to which we have referred : lion. Geo. C. Bates, formerly Attorney-General of Michigan, but latterly of San Francisco, made the following highly important statement in a nublic speech at Calamazoo, on Wednesday last. We in vite for it tiie attention of all honest Democrats.— We quote from the Detroit Tribune : When he (Mr. Bates) wus expected to sail for California, in August, 1855, he was persuaded by Mr. Palmer, of the firm of Palmer, Cook & Co., bankers, of San Francisco, to remain until October, when he and Col. Fremont would accompany him thither. Mr. Bates postponed his departure ns de sired. But when the time for departure arrived, Col. Fremont, although his trunks were packed, did not go, but ordered his baggage to the Metropolitan Hotel instead. This was in consequence of the fol lowing facts : “Gov. Floyd, of Virginia, had just arrived in New York city, for the special purpose of having an in terview with Col. Fremont, und the result of that interview was an offer made to Col. Fremont by Floyd, in behalf of the Democratic party, he haying advised with its leading men North and South, of the nomination for the Presidency, lie said that party wanted a new man—a man of integrity, aud who had won distinction outside of politics. Col. Fre mont, after listening patiently, and even submitted to two separate interviews, and knowing the plat form he was expected to stand upon, replied : that while deeply sensible of the high distinction of the proposition made him, and flattered by the promises it extended, yet with his opinions of the repeal of the Missouri Compromise, it would be im possible for him to entertain the proposition. He considered that repeal an infamous breach of plight ed faith, and should never desist deuouheing the act and its authors. Col. Fremont planted himself im pregnably on this position. “Mr. Palmer, being cognizant of these facts, com municated them forthwith to lion. N. P. Banks, and lion. Henry Wilson, of Massachusetts, and they came and saw Col. Fremont, and to state iu brief the result of that interview, he consented to lead the hosts of freedom in this campaign if the people should call him to that position. All this happened in September, 1855, if we correctly recall Mr. llates’ statement. He gives times, names aud places, aud vouches for the entire accuracy of the above state ment ; and although it did not come to him with the injunction of secresy, he stated he would not have revealed it had the facts not already been partly dis closed in last Saturday's New York Herald. Any statement made by Mr. B. commands implicit reli ance in this community, where he has been known lor years, and is universally respected.” Edgefield Advertiser.—lt affords ns pleasure to call the atteution of our business men to the no tice of this journal.

Public Discasaioa in Henry. On yesterday, Sept. Ist, a large number of the citizens of Henry County assembled in McDonough ' to hear Col. L. J. Gartrell discuss the political is sues of the day, about two thirds of the assemblage being members of the American party. On his ar rival. the friends of Mr. Fillmore proposed a public discussion, winch Col. Gartrell accepted, with the j provision that he should be allowed to dictate the j terms, i. e. for him to open the diroussion in one , hour, Col. L. T. Doval to reply in a speech of one hour and three quarters, and Col. Gartreli to con clude in three quarters of an hour. Although this proposition * as unfair, yet it was accepted and the debate commenced. j I will give you, Mr. Editor, so far as I can recol lect, an outline of the positions taken by Col. Gar . trail, that your readers may be informed as to the modes of warfare adopted by Mr. Buchanan's | friends in this part of Georgia, or at least adopted | by Col. Gartrell, the Democratic Elector for the Fourth Congressional District. He said that the Americans were misguided, had abandoned their principles and were running after strange Gods.— That it was impossible to get them to meet the only ; question made in the canvass, to-wit: The Slavery Question. He affirmed that the editor of the “Chronicle & Sentinel” is a northern man, tLat he is ashamed to publish the American Platform, that his proclivities are decidedly northern, and that therefore he could account for the enthusiastic sup jK>rt he gives to Millard Fillmore. Boasted that he (Gartrell) had converted an old man in Carroll county, several in Troup, and that he defied any gentleman of the American Party to meet him— that Judge Hill, for reasons best known to himself, had failed and refused to discuss with him, and that he was anxious to meet “ Ben .” Hill. He actually left the impression on the minds of his hearers, that this last named gentleman had backed out from a discussion with him. I reckon he has not seen B. H. Hill’s recent letter in your paper, in which letter it is strongly implied that he will meet any and all Buchanan advocates “in Atlanta or some other central point, where he will discuss from day to day until all is told.” Should Col. Gartrell have the pleasure of meet ing .oe?t. ere the close of the campaign, which we Americans of Henry sincerely hope that he will, we have only to say— •‘Lay on Macduff And darn’d be he who first cries hold , enough .” The Speaker further said that Fillmore has on his banner at the North, “Fillmore aud Free Territo ry/' and that Mr. Fillmore is in favor of restoring the Missouri Compromise; that he voted to natu ralize a free negro while in Congress ; also to re ceive a negro as an’embassador; and that he par doned abolitionists. That Foreigners never sent Sharpe’s rifles to Kansas to make it a Free State, and that they are therefore better friends to the Union than many Americans, and that they never betrayed any trust confided to them. The speaker said that he and his party were deadly opposed to squatter sovereignty, and that Mr. Fillmore and his party were in favor of it. lie finally concluded by glorifyiug the Kansas bill and Mr. B.ehdnan and his party generally. I have given you, I think, a faithful sketch of his positions in his first argument. Now does not every man in his sense? krow V. at the charges made against Millard I'i'lmore are ut terly at war with the truth of his recoi u and his h*s tory ? Can it be possible that Col. Gartrell expects I by sweeping denunciations and emp*y declamation ! to impose upon the credulity of the people of Tlc-n --ry, and cheat them out ot their votes? If yea, he is badly mistaken. They read for themselves, aod know that he cannot sustain the fi-it charge that he made. Col. Doyal, an able lawyer and eloquent debater, replied by saying that he was gratiiied that an op portunity had been afforded him to reply to the standard-bearer of the Buchanan columus of the 4th Congressional District; that he should make no unkind remarks, indulge in no bitter sarcasms, but discuss the questions fairly and squarely, and make no charges that he was not able to sustain by histo. ry and the records of his country. He then proceeded, in a fair, manly, and unan swerable speech, to inspect and review the Cincin nati platform. He said that his friend Gartrell had glorified the Democratic platform, and affirmed that it contained the principles of the Fathers of the Re public, and was as impregnable as the rock of Gib raltar, and that it would be faithfully carried out by the Democratic party. Col. Doyal said then that he would propound a few questions to his friend, and that he hoped they would be frankly an swered in the reply. The Democratic platform declared that “Every branch of the General Government should practice the most rigid economy in conducting public af fairs.” Mr. Van Buren spent $37,000,000 per an num with the Florida war upon his hands, and was turned out of office for extravagance. Mr. Polk, who had to prosecute the Mexican war, and pro vide means for the American army, spent $45,000,- 000 per annum, and many of his friends thought he was very extravagant. Mr. Fillmore, under the additional expenses he was compelled to meet, spent but $37,000,000, and Democracy shook her hoary locks at him. Yet, Franklin Pierce has swell ed the expenditures of the Government in the time of profound peace to the snug little sum of $82,000,- 000, and this is Democratic economy. Again, that the same platform declared that “The Constitution does not confer upon the General Gov ernment any power to carry on a general system of Internal Improvementsand scarcely had the ink dried upon the paper upon which the resolution was written, before a Democratic Senate passed more than forty bills in direct conflict with this plank of the platform, requiring an appropriation of millions of the public money. Pierce, true to the Democrat ic platform, had vetoed the bills, and they were passed by his political associates by a constitutional majority over the Presidential veto Again, the said Cincinnati Convention declared, “That it was inexpedient and wrong for the General Government to cherish and foster one branch of industry to the detriment of another and yet, that same Con vention had nominated a man for the Presidency who voted for the odious tariff of 1828, for the “black tariff” of 1842, as it was indignantly called by the friends of Mr. Polk in 1844—a man who had voted for the force bill to compel South Carolina to sub mit to what she regarded as an unconstitutional and oppressive tariff, and who never had voted against any discriminating tariff in all his political life. Here then, was Democratic professions vs. Demo cratic practice. And again : said platform adopted the principles of the Nebraska-Kansas bill, and yet his friend Gartrell was willing to swear that no such thing as “ Squatter Sovereignty” was in said bill; notwithstanding General Cass, Douglas, Tou cey, Bigler, and, indeed, all the leading Democrats of the Free States in Congress, who ought to know, declared in debate on the amendment offered by Trumbull to the Pacification bill, on the floor ot the Senate, only a month ago, that the Kansas bill did distinctly recognize the right of the people in their Territorial Legislature to prohibit or admit slavery in eaid Territory. If Squatter Sovereignty was in the bill, then his friend Gartrell was dead against the Democratic platform, and as the originators of the bill say it is in it, therefore Gartrell was opposed to said bill. Col. Doyal said he could define the po sition of the American party on that subject in a very few words. Saidhe, we do notobject to the principle that the people of a Territory, when they in-et in con vention to form a State constitution, may to 1 , rale or prohibit slavery, but we deny that a thousand squatters may meet in a legislative capac.ty and exclude slavery from a Territory where it b carried and protected by the Constitution. We have al ways, heretofore, and do still, oppose the A'icn Suf frage feature in said bill, and expect to oppose it world without end. Mr. Fillmore signed the organic law organizing j the Territories of Utah and New Mexico, and the organic law of each of these Territories distinctly 1 admit the right of the people, when they meet to | form a State Constitution, to admit or prohibit i slavery at their pleasure, and that he was “ right side up with care, - ’ on these questions. Much more was said upon this point, which I omit. He said the next objection to the Cincinnati plat torn, was in these words : “ The time has come for the people of the United States to declare them selves in favor of “ Free Trade and Free Seas.” Here is distinctly enumerated a principle which strikes at the dearest interest of the people. “Free Trade'’ repudiated all tariffs for revenue or any other purpose. How, then, could the government be sustained ? Only by direct taxation, which, ac cording to the expenditure of President Pierce would be about four dollars per head for each and every man, woman and child, black and white, in the confederacy, besides our State tax. Doyal showed forcibly the iniquitous principle manifested in the platform in relation to “ free seas.” He said his last objection to the position of the party was their low inameuvering to secure the votes of the Western States on the resolutions passed by the Convention, avowing “ That it was the duty of the Federal Government to build the Pacific Railroad.” He said this resolution formed a part of the Cincin nati platform, but that he had never seen it in a Southern Democratic paper. He denounced this as a gross fraud and downright hypocrisy. He called upon Col. Gartrell to answer these charges. Mr. Gartrell had charged Mr. Fillmore with voting to naturalize a tree negro. Mr. Gartrell very well knew that not a word of it was true. Mr. Fillmore only did what the Georgia Legislature had done, mnl winch may be found in our statute book, that is, he voted for a bill giving to a certain free negro the right to hold real t state, which he had acquired by his industry. This is all that Fillmore done, and if he was wrong so is the Georgia Legislature. He certainly did not vote to receive a black Embassa dor from an African Government as charged, be cause the House of Representatives, which Mr. Fillmore was in, had nothing to do with such recep tion. The President may receive or not receive as he chooses every Embassador without the consent or advice of the House of Representatives. Mr. Gartrell had “pitched into " Mr. Fillmore on account of his views as expressed in his Erie letter. This was remarkably strange : for this letter was published in 181(8. and in 1848 Col. Gartrell intro duced a reso.ution in Wilkes county, "approving of Mr. Fillmcre’s nomination, because he had shout n himself a safe and conservative man for the South.’' Gartrell voted for him and advocated his claims on the stump. This Democratic Elector further said that Mr. Fillmore had pardoned negro stealers. Does he not know that these men were imprisoned because they were unable to pay the fine imposed, and does he not also know tiat they remained in prison four fears at the expense of the government, because they could not pay the fine imposed, and that they were pardoned by Mr. Fillmore at the request of the very slaveholders that had been injured by them, and that Mr Fillmore refused to remit the fine He could not review the history of Mr. t'ill more fullv for the want of time, but pointed Mr. Gartrell to Fillmore's acts while President . to his letter to Gov. Gales; to his messages ; ins approval of tae compromise measures, and the fugitive slave law his letter of acceptance ; his approval of the Utah and New Mexico territorial bids, and to his speeches in Kentucky, Rochester, Albany, and ail along the banks of the Hudson, as conclusive proof of his nationality and conservatism. The speaker paid an eloquent tribute to the staiesmanship. patriotism and candor of the Model President. , He declared that the lecord of the Democratic nominee wao worse than the Democratic platform: but as his time had expired he could not review that record. Mr. Gartrell. in reply, without the shadow of proof, reiterated his charges against Mr. Fillmore — said that he had originated and voted for the tariff of 1828 and 1542, and that Pierce spent the UOO fighting the abodtiouists—an* -,-v*V Nothiug* passed the Ir ~‘ - the Know over Uiq Pr*~ : J -vernal Improvement bills v,v * . veto [tremendous cheering— in a horn !!] —dodged the question of '‘free trade” aud “free seas/' and the Pacific Railroad bill—in deed, he made no reply to the argument that had preceded him. In conclusion. I must say that I was disappointed in Coh Gartrell. He certainly did not come up to the expectation of those who heard him. nis argument was disjointed, and made op of the vulgarisms found iu the Democratic jour nals. But our people are not to be carried away by empty declamation and sweeping denunciations. We will give Fillmore 250 majority in Henry coun ty in November next — mark that. Observer. For the Chronicle 4’ Sentinel. Toe Knoxville Mass Meeting. Knoxville, Tenn., Sept. 5,1856. Mr. Editor :—Tennesse is awake for Fillmore, Donelson and the Union, and no mistake. I had the gratification of witnessing the greatest Fillmore demonstsation of the season at this place yesterday. Never iu my life have I seen so many people to gether, and so much enthusiasm manifested. I was at the Clay Mass Meeting in Madison in IS-44, and I then thought I should never again see so many people together ; but it was nowhere, in comparison with this, both as regards numbers aud enthusiastic feeling. The crowd b variously estimated at from fifteen to twenty-five thousand. It really seems that the whole of East Tennessee have come out to give an impetus to the good cause. Never have I seen so many banners, transparencies, &c. I count ed in a procession last night seventy-six transparen cies, each bearing a different inscription. General William Haskell, of Memphis, made the great speech of the occasion. He held the largest crowd I ever before saw, spell-bound for four and a half hours. It would be useless for me to even attempt to describe it. It was such a speech as a man does not have the pleasure of hearing more than once in a life-time. Hb appeal to the old-line Whigs was most eloquent and impressive, and was received with great applause. Dr. Miller, of your State, fol lowed in a speech of two hours, in such a speech as Dr. Miller always make■*». I heard a number of speeches from other distinguished speakers : Messrs. Sneed, Picket, Judge Brien, Maynard, White, Campbell, Taylor, Paxton, Anderson, and last, though not least. Brownlow, of the Whig. The speakers of Tennessee are the plainest speakers I have ever Ibtened to. They set down any sensible man, who understands the history of his country, and who has pronounced Millard Fillmore as an Abolitionist, as a sneaking scoundrel, and an un mitigated liar, and declare themselves responsible for all they say; and I believe they are right. The ball is in motion in Tennessee, and, from all that I can learn, the State is considered by our friends as safe for Fillmore by over five thousand majority. There is to be a Democratic Mass Meeting at Chattanooga on the 11th inst., and I leave here to morrow to attend it. lam desirous of looking at both sides, so as I may be able to tell how Tennes see will go iu this contest. Yours truly, [COM ML SIC AT ED.] lion. Alexander il. Stephens Attain. The “Little Pilgrim/* whose “flute-like” speech at Harrodsburg, Penn., has never been reported South, (was tuere anything Freesoilbh in it, or did he, like Douglass, and Geo. W. Jones, and Judge Hillyer, openly endorse squatter sovereignty 1) I understand, is now to perigrinate to Illinois, to speechify and quiet the Free Democracy there. He is to tell them that the principle of the Kansas bill does mean that “the people of a Territory, like those of a State/’ (at any time unorganized and as mob ocrats,) have the right to exclude slavery from their territory. That is, it means this in Illinois, and iu ali the North and West, but away back in Georgia, iie and the lion. Robert, a Senator of “the cracker State,” are wool-gathering the eyes and ideas of the peop-e, and making them believe that it is only “popular sovereignty,” which means the people’s right to vote at elections without dark lanterns or religious tests. Robert uses sheep wool, as in our last election for Governor, to blind the people to the true issue now before them, and I am using ne gro wool “in the abstract,” for the same purpose.— I have an eye to the succession, and am insidiously indoctrinating the “crackers” with Freesoilism, and before the next Democratic Convention will spring upon them another “great principle” in some bam boozle bill, aud call it “Democratic emancipation,” in which Robert and I will join forces with the North and West, and quietly rid the South of her odious institution, that I have neither heart nor nerve to defend. Great applause will redound to the “Little Pilgrim” throughout all Freesoildom on this great effort of his in Illinois, but on no account will it be reported back to Georgia, until the proper time shall arrive. Old Guard Whig. For the Chronicle Sp Sentinel. Thomas W. Thomas on the Democracy* Mr. Editor :—With the harmonious unterrified we find many elements now in unison which it is difficult to explain, except upon the principle of “the cohesive power of public plunder.” For instance, how do men now harmonize that once charged each other with belonging tc» the Garrison school of abo litionists, and as entertaining opinions more hostile to the South than the notorious freesciler Dix ? llow is it that the Nashville conventionists and Buffalo Freesoilers are to-day side by side, hand aud glove ? What is the magnet ? and how is it that Thomas W. Thomas, Esq., the author of the following sentiments, is sent out as a missionary to enlighten the Democracy. Report of a Speech del/erred by Thomas IV. Thomas , {Democratic Elector) at a Convention * of the Union Tarty , in July , 1852. Mr. Thomas, (Democrat) of Elbert, then defined his position. He was opposed to the dissolution of the party, as such a course was indirectly assisting Scott, and was in favor of supporting Pierce and King, by an electoral ticket composed of Whigs and Democrats. The rest of his position was wholesale billingsgate and abuse of the Democratic party, both the past and present. To abuse them was his extatic bliss, and was a luxury he never denied himself. He had nothing for them but the harshest words, and those were not harsh enough, bill they were the language of his inmost heart, and it was his happiness to give them utterance. Religion made men like each other. If it could make him like such men, ho would spurn without hesitation the very grace of God itseit. He would rather vote for the Devil for President, and Belzebub for Vice President, than for Pierce and King for those offices, through the Electoral ticket of such rascals, scoundrels and cowards. He as sured the Convention he could convict (positively) 130 members of the National Convention of direct lying. Such a party, he had not the slightest respect for, and could not be insulted by it otherwise than by personal violence. This report is to be found in the Constitutionalist of July 21st, 1852, taken from the Savannah Geor gian, both good authority, now with the harmoni ous. The ticket then out in Georgia was 11. V. Johnson, Wilson Lumpkin, Fareman, Clark, La mar, Haralson, Brown, Mitchell, Flournoy a’.d Schley. Now take this, and the assertion that he would not vote for Buchanan, his denial of Stephens Griffin speech, and what can be made of such a party ? Consistency. PasNnjre of the Army BUI. Yesterday, we stated that the Army bill passed the House by tiro majority. It should have been four. The vote stood 101 yeas to 97 nays, as we see by reference to the yeas and nays. The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Her ald says: The Republicans could, if they had chose, have killed the bill. Messrs. Welsh of Connecticut, Millward of Pennsylvania, Miller of N.

Kaunas News. The Charleston Courier of the Btli instant pub lishes the following letters. The first is dated Atchi son, K. T. August 20, and is addressed to Hon. Jas. Simons, Chairman Executive Committee of Kanas Association in Charleston, and is as follows : A scouting party of four, which we sent out on Monday evening, has just returned. They penetra ted to Lecompton, meeting no interruption on the way, and remained there until last evening. They report that the town had not been attacked up to the time of their leaving, the abolitionists having ! abandoned their position and retired towards Law- | rence. Titus had been exchanged. His wounds j consist of the loss of one thumb, a flesh wound in the elbow, and one in the shoulder, which he received while stooping to shoot througli a window. He denies that he was badly treated while a prisoner, though he admits at first there was some talk of hanging him. He mentions that he recognised Lane among the men at Lawrence, though he has assum ed the name of Cook. Secretary W oodson is acting Governor, and has sent to Fort Riley for four hun dred men. He desires all our men to come on td Lecompton at once, as lie fears very much for the ferry there, the only one we have on the Kuw river. He has not declared ti e Territory in a state of in surrection up to this time, lest the abolitionists should seize it; but as soon as he has sufficient force to defend it, will issue a proclamation to that effect. The other letter is from Capt. E. B. Bell and is da ted Westport, Mo., Aug. 24. Such a sight as I witnessed when I airived here ! It never has been my l°t to see any thing like it— armed men going and coming in every direction— horses saddled, wagons loaded, band ot music play ing, artillery moving out—nothing but excitement. Our rendezvous is ten miles from here, and it is sta ted here to-night that 000 men are camped there and 400 more are expected to-morrow. Doctors,judges, lawyers, physicians and ministers, all are neglecting their business and going. The news published is all true: the thing has come to a crisis, and the time j has come for action. There is a spirit of determina ; tion in the countenances of the Missourians, and this, time thev will not be fooled. I leave in a few min utes for the camp at New Santa Fe. They will or ganize to-morrow, and I will send you all the news. I write this simply to assure you that things are as bad as they are represented. The Black Flag.—At a Republican disunion meeting held at Chilficothe, Ohio, last week, the most conspicuous thing in the procession was a monster flag, bearing upon it the American stripes and colors, but with only sixteen stars.

I.ctier from Hinnj»hrcy Marshall. The following patriotic letter from the lion. Hum phrey Marshall, of Kentucky, in reply to an in vitation to be present at the late Union celebration at Cincinnati, should be read by every voter at the South : Washington, Aug. 25,1856. My Dear Sir —l wish I could comply with urgent request that I should be present at the Union meeting of the citizens of Ohio and Kentucky, at Cincinnati aud Covington, on the 27th inst. But my duty as a Representative of the people forbids my absence from a single vote to be taken at this extra session of Congress, and 1 shall not be absent from one, if my life is preserved, should the sessiou last until next 'March. If I were with you, I should say to my country men that the safety of the Republic depends upon the election of Millard Fillmore to the Presidency, and that, in my humble opinion, if they are not wise enough to determine the matter iu that way, they will not be wise enough to save the Union. I do not write thus because of mere personal ad miration for Mr, Fillmore, nor because I suppose he alone has wisdom enough to administer the gov ernment through a period of difficulty, but because lie is the representative of concord and harmony be tween the great sections of our country, while Lis competitors aspire to rule, each backed substan tially by a sectional party only, and each hoping to succeed by solidifying sectional interests so as to win by it. Mr. Fremont has no party in any slaveholding State. lie may have a ticket in one or more, but every one knows 4 that the most sanguine of his sup porters claim but a few thousand votes for him in the whole range of those States. On the contrary, he has become the exponent of an immense body of voters iu the free States, and his friends iu those States claim his election as a matter which time will render certain, and which they are determined to accomplish. The slave States have 120 votes ; the free States 176 votes—l4y are necessary to a choice by the people. If Mr. Fremont loses New York he will be defeated, no matter how the vote of the slave States may be split between Buchanan aud Fillmore. If he loses Ohio and New Jersey—or if he loses Pennsylvania and California, or Indiana, Illinois, and Connecticut, the same re sult will follow. It is useless to say to you that Mr. Buchanan cannot, if left to struggle alone, hope to win the desirable result upon any combination of those States, even if the whole slaveholdiug States vote for him. His best friends here will hardly claim it—his enemies laugh at the supposition in ut ter scorn. He could not, if report be true, cany his own State, without the contest were triangular, and unless it be the case in Illinois, he could not hope to win in any of the remainder of the combination. If Mr. Buchanan continues a candidate, he may impair or utterly defeat Mr. Fillmore, but if he were withdrawn or abandoned, Mr. Fillmore’s election would be triumphant and most easy of accomplish ment. lie will carry New York in all probability under any circumstouces, but were Mr. B. aban doned by the slave States, he would carry it beyond any doubt, and in my opinion, would attract the votes of all conservative masses throughout the Free States. Mr. Buchanan cannot accomplish this result. The reasons for this lie in the fact that he lias ever been a vaocilatiug politician—is now committed to ultra schemes of policy which may and will jeopardize the pence of the country, a..d Las taken the shoes of General Pierce upon the un fortunate state of things now existing in Kansas, and touching the slavery agitation that now distracts the country. There are many other reasons—but suffice it, the fact is as I state it, and all candid men must acknowledge it. If the slave States then pre fer to enter upon the sectional contest with Mr. Bu chanan as a leader, they will support him anj leave Mr. Fillmore’s friends throughout the free States to withdraw altoghther from the vote or to take care of themselves in the sectional contest which is to come off'; for I say it boldly, that if nothing will do but a sectional contest, the men of each section will adhere to their section, and no human force can pre vent it. If such a contest is to occur, it will be because the Southern people, following the advice of the South ern Democrats, choose it, and will not avail them selves of the chance that is offered to them of elect ing a man of sound national character, whose former administration of the government was preservative of all their rights, yet who was the favorite of all the conservative masses of the free Stutes, and who could again command their suffrages if they saw any corresponding effort on the part of the slave States. Mr. Buchanan does not command their confidence and cannot attract their support. The South then has the choice fully and fairly presented to it of a sectional contest by making the race be tween Buchanan and Fremont, or of a national struggle in which men in every seciion will act by making the contest between Fillmore and Fremont, and as the South makes her bed she must lie. I speak plainly because 1 feel deeply. In the event of Mr. Buchanan's election 1 foresee a condition of things which will paralyse the ener gies of this Government —protract the sectional dis putes —involve the country in civil, and probably in a foreign war, and end in the overthrow of the Union, or in a struggle, renewed, between the sec tions, oil a lower platform of Radicalism than either of the parties—Republican or Democrat—now oc cupy. That is to contemplate only a protracted decline of the Republic instead ot its speedy dissolu tion, which I believe would be the consequence of the sectional contest now. Men may smile at such a conclusion and doubtless many good men will, but I never was more in earnest than lam now, and never was more thoroughly convinced of the truth of my conclusions than lam now while writing this. If the Democratic and Republican parties have brought affairs to that pass here, that the struggle in the legislative department of government between them paralyses the government, and stops the ne cessary for the common defence, what appropriations hope shall we entertain that when the contest is trans ferred to the people, and they combined under leaders whoply every effort to deepen the struggle into one purely sectional, it will be less embittered than it now has become? We are at a point where we may save ourselves, pass it and we shall drift into a stream whose only outlet is a sea of anarchy. Have the people—the American people—the virtue to save their country by saving the Union of these States ?—That is the question that now presses for their answer, and a trust in God to guide your meeting to such a result as to make that answer pro pitious of a brighter future than I now picture to . my mind’s eye. lam no croaker. Look back on my public life, and I think no record can bo found where I ever traced a doubt of the perpetuity of the Govern ment. But I tell my countrymen plainly I do now doubt it, and I look to the future with a solicitude and anxiety my bosom has heretofore been a stran ger to. The people have all in their owu hands. If madness rules the Hour, the slave States will reject Mr. Fillmore, and will precipitate the catastrophe we shall hereafter so much deplore. If wisdom prevails, the people will rally to his standard, and will by his election, re-establish confidence be tween the sections, and place the country again on the highroad to a fulfilment of her proper destiny.— There is nothing 1 have or hope for on this earth I would not yield to save my country, and if there ever was a time or will be a time for a patriotic mind to publish its convictions, that time has ar rived now. These sectional controversies must cease or this Uuion cannot long endure. Already the plains of Kansas are wet with the blood of our countrymen shed in its fratricidal war, and think you it will sink in the ground ? Already are bands of armed men rushing to the conflict to maintain or overthrow a system of social and domestic polity hereafter to ob tain in the State of Kansas when organized ! Think you this state of things is to continue and yet the Union is to survive ? Texas lias already voted men and money to sus tain one side of the cause. Other States may soon imitate her example, and when Massachusetts and South Carolina have done so, and others follow, how lon# do you suppose it will be before the bonds of the Union will melt in the hot furnace of excited con tests that will eupervene here in the halls of the Na tional Legislature. If Mr. Pierce’s administration cannot manage the people of lvausas now, when the opposing forces do not number two thousand, what are we to hope from Mr. Buchauan’s or Mr. Fre mont's administration, when States shall have be come partizans, and the flfigs of heavy forces shall have gone down in the contest? Oh, my mind con templates that future with absolute horror! and yet my judgment bids me look it in the face as a danger which is imminent and approaching. We have one hope. This Government was based upon the idea of the virtue and intelligence of the people, and the people are now the arbiters of their own fate. If the idea of our forefathers was correct, the people will intervene to save their institutions; if it were erroneous, or we have become too degenerate to practice upon it, the catastrophe will show, in stead of a happy and free people, the “bloodiest picture in the book of time.” If Mr. Fillmore pre vails, we shall have a prospect of sunny skies and fair weather for our future voyage ; if he does not, my humble opinion is, the storm we now dread will prove a gentle breeze to the hurricane that will overwhelm us. Yours, very sincerely, Humphrey Marshall. Hon. E. B. Bartlett. For the Rome Courier. Kansas. “War rages in Kansas Murder and robbery stalk through the land. Cities are attacked and de stroyed, houses burned, plantations laid waste, and all law and order set atjacfiance,jand yet the govern ment is powerless to arrest the rebellion and restore quiet and security to the country.” —Atlanta In telligencer. The above is taken from the Intelligencer, a “can tankerous” (as Mr. Forsyth would have said,) Demo cratic paper of Atlanta. “War rages in Kansas;” who caused it? Who is responsible for this condi tion of affairs ? Who has brought this great repub lic to the verge of the precipice—this trembling vo*ge,now shaking beneath our feet? Who has armed one section of this Union against the other— who has thrown us back to the barbarism, nay worse than the barbarism and cruelty, which stain ed with blood the soil of the “Debatcable Land?” Tliis country was at peace. Irritating questions were laid at rest. The compromise measures were pronounced a finality. Mr. Fillmore left the Presi dential chair, with not a speck of trouble in our po litical firmament. Mr. Pierce succeeds him. The Kansas bill, with one face to the North, and one to the South, is passed, agitation at once commences— it has advanced with fearful rapidity —it has caused intestine war—where it will end, God only knows. Messrs. Douglas Stephens are the parents of this double-headed monster. We were told at the South that it would make Kansas a slave State, and thus secure our ascendancy at Washington. And there were men at the South, sufficiently verdant to believe, that negro Slavery could exist in a country in which the thermometer stands for days at 20 deg. below zero. Instead of making Kansas a slave State, this bill is crowding it with foreigners and abolitionists. Instead of giving us peace at Wash ington, it has roused with tenfold energy the whole dormant anti-slavery sentiment of the North. In stead of adding to our strength, it has but rendered conspicuous our weakness. Its result must be, either that we tamely succumb, or that we with draw from the government —a withdrawal which, based upon the present state of affairs, cannot be consummated without the horrors of a civil war. There is but one way in which these evils can be averted —away in which the conservative men at the North and South can unite—and that i a by the elevation of Mr. Fillmore to the Pre sidency. A man so pure in life that his oppo nents can find no etain upon it—so calm in temper that terrible agitations of the early period of his administration could not ruffle him—so mingling suavity with firmness that the defeated Carolinians greeted him with an ovation—so wise in adminis tration that from disorder he produced order, from turmoil peace, and from universal anxiety an uni versal confidence. His successor has thrown down the apple of dis cord. Mr. Buchanan approves and is pledged to carry out the policy of Mr. Pierce. So far as the chameleon ha? a color, this is his position. He will perpetuate the evils under which we now labor, if he be elected. But he cannot be elected. If the whole South were to vote unanimously for him he cannot be elected by the popular vote. If any one doubts this let him look to the figures; he will seethe impossibili ty. The whole Souta and Pennsylvania cannot make him President. If the whole South unite upon Mr. Fillmore, he can be elected and the couDtrybe saved. If Fremont is our next President, the responsibility will rest upon the Southern supporters of Mr. Bu chanan. Let them unite with true-hearted Ameri cans, and prevent the catastrophe which must follow the election of Fremont. Warned by the imbecility of an administration which raises a ’ghost which it cannot lay, let them unite upon one which will com mand peace at home and respect abroad. Let the public attention be turned to the expres. sions contained in the extract at the head of this ar ticle. It is a description, “in parvo' 5 of the admin isiration —blustering and then whining.

B. H. HILL’S APPOINTMENT. BENJ. H. HILL will address ihe people of Can pbcll and the adjacent counties, at Palmetto, on MONDAY, the 29th day of SEPTEMBER, inst. Col. L. J. GARTRELL is especially invited to attend and oarticipato in the discussion. seplO-td TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. Officers and Members of Joppa Lodge, No. 162, of Free and Accepted Masons, through tiieir Committee, have the melancholy task assigned them of announcing to the Brethren of sister Lodges the death of their late Brother Dr. JOHN L. GLENN, who departed this life at the residence of his father, William Glenn, Jr., in Oglethorpe county, on Friday, 2otU July, A. L. 5856, in the 27th year of his age. Joppa Lodge has lost one of her brightest ornaments ; she has lost a worthy and consistent member; the com munity in which he lived will feel the loss of an estima ble citizen, and a popular, though young physician. Brother Glenn, having very recently married, had made all the necessary preliminary arrangements for render ing himself happy and useful, in his possession, to his fellow-citizens, when Death, the great King of Terrors, .summoned him hence. His prospects for happiness througli life, were truly flattering; he was universally respected as a man of high moral worth ; he had not an enemy, in the kuowledge of the Committee ;) his urbane manner and gentleness of disposition, won for him the admiration and respect of all classes. He was noted for frankness of disposition, candor, and conciliation, in all his dealings with his fellow-men. Ostentation belonged not to him in any of its shapes and disguises ; principle formed the man, and to principle was he a friend indeed. In short, our brother was a man of the strictest integrity of character. We are not conscious of exaggeration when we make the declaration that our late Brother was a standard bearer of morality, worthy the imitation of all young meu, especially those of the medical profes sion. His habits of sobriety, promptness of attendance on the sick, his unassuming manners in the social circle, and his readiness, at all times, to contribute to the wants of the destitute and needy, and to uphold the charitable institutions cf the aay, without regard to denomination or sect, elicited the approbation and esteem of all with whom lie had to deal. To have known him, was but to have loved him. He has left us ou a journey to that country from whose baurne no traveller returns. We may, like David of old, while mourning the loss of Ab salom, comfort ourselv es with the reflection that we may go unto him, but that he caunot return unto us. “ The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away : Blessed be the mime of the Lord.” it is not the membership of this Lodge alone who are called upon to mourn the early de parture of one of its members, (and the flrst who has been summoned from time to eternity since its organiza tion,) but the young and disconsolate widow of our de ceased brother ; she who, but a tew short weeks since, had allied herself to h;m whom she loved in the bonds of holy matrimony, is now called upon to encounter the bitter pangs oi disappointed hope* and high expectations ol earthly felicity with him to whom she had given her self as a helpmate. We deeply sympathize with her in the heavy bereavement which she is called to mourn, and commend her to Ilim who has power over Death, llell and the Grave, and who has promised to be a hus band to the widow and father to the fatherless. Brother Wm.. Glenn, Jr., the father of our deceased Brother, has met with a bereavement, in the death of his son, which time only can obliterate. His eldest son, by a former marriage, and one who gave so great promise of useful ness to the community, to be removed from earth with all its attractive ties, in the meridian of manhood, isablow almost too powerful for the philosophy of an affectionate parent to bear ; but we should recollect that the earth is the Lord’s, and the cattle on a thousand hills are his. We should, therefore, bow with submission to the will of Divine Providence in all things. The deceased has left several brothers (one of whom is an officer in this Lodge,) and sisters, together with an affectionate step-mother and brother, with a large circle of friends to mourn the loss of one whose spirit, we trust, lias winged its way to that house—that high temple—a building uot made with hands eternal in the heavens. The Committee oft'er the following resolutions : L. Resolved , That the above Report be spread upon the Records of this Lodge, anil that the members wear the usual badge of mourning for the space of thirty days. 2. Resolved , That the Jewels and Furniture of the Lodge be clothed in mourning, as a further mark of re spect for our deceased Brother. 3. Resolved , That a copy of the above proceedings be forwarded by the {Secretary of this Lod£,e to the widow of the deceased. 4. Resolved, That a copy of the above be forwarded by the Secretary of this Lodge to the Editors of the Chronicle & Sentinel and Constitutionalist, at Augusta, for insertion in their respective papers.

BCplO SELECTED—LOVE SCENE. jjujT* Mr. Poppa paid his two hundred and sixty seventh visit to Miss Clarissa Cooler, the other evening. He found her in a rocker alone in the parlor; stole his arm around her alabaster neck, and sipped the nectar of her cherry lips—a proceeding there was not the least harm in, considering that they had come to an agreement, and were generally reported to be on the high road to matri mony. They lady took all quietly—even indifferently, to judge from the lassitude of her attitude in the rocker, her lazy use of her fan, and her exclamation of some thing between a high-ho and a yu-hum. Common places were disposed of; then followed a silence, broken only by Mr. Popps slapping at the mos quitoes, and Miss Clarissa fanning herself uneasily. At length Popps proposed a promenade and ice-cream. Clarissa declined both, adding : “ I wish to stay at home; for I have something particu lar to tell you.” “ Indeed,” said Popps ; “ what is it, dear ?” “ You expect our wedding to take place in three weeks, don’t you f” “ To be sure I do.’* “ Well, I am sorry to disappoint you, but I must do it. I cannot marry”— “ Good Leavens ! Clarissa, what are you saying f” “ Don’t interrupt me. I mean I can’t marry just yet awhile—not for some months to come.” “ vVby, Clarissa, what’s the meaning of all this ? You gave me your positive promise, and said nothing stood in the way—l am all ready, and worried with waiting—why do you put it oft', dear ?” “That you will have to excuse my telling you. I have a good reason for it—l have thought the matter over well —and my mind is made up. Will that satisfy you ?” Popps mused awhile. Clarissa kept her fan going. Finally, Popps spoke: “ No, Clarissa, it won t satisfy me. You postpone our wedding and refuse to tell me why. If you have a rea son for it yon ought to let me know it, and maybe it would satisfy me. But I won’t be satisfied without the reason." “ Well then, you’ll have to remain unsatisfied. I tell you J have a reason, and a good one—what more do you want?" “ I see how it is—l have courted you too long—l didn’t strike while the iron was hot —you are tired of me. Well, if that is your wish, go ahead.” “ Mr. Popps, you're a dunce—you’re a fool!’’ “ Maybe I am, and maybe I ain’t," said Pepps, rising with his temper, “ but this I’ll say, Miss Clarissa, if you don't tell me why you postpone the wedding for a few months, you may postpone it forever, so far as I am con cerned. Tell me, Clarissa ; else I swear that when I leave this house to night, I will never set foot in it again !” “ Well, you'd better go !" “ Very well. Good night, Miss Cooler.” Popps reaches the door : Clarissa Allowed him ; and seeing that he was in earnest, cried to him to stay. Popps came back —Clarissa put her head on hia shoulder and cried. Popps melted. Popps spoke first. “ Well, dear, what’s the matter ?" “ Ob, I think you’re so unreasonable and cruel t indeed, indeed, 1 have a good cause lor putting off our marriage— but J cannot, 1 must not tell you what it is. Oh, dear Mr. Popps, excuse me!” And she cried a little more. “ Well, Clarissa, tell me this. Do you put it off to please your father or any of your relations ?” “ No—they know nothing of my determination." “ Do you put it off on account of any thing concerning me ?" “ No.” “ Do you want to go any where, or do any thing par ticular, that will keep you from marrying ?” “ No." • In God’s name, then Clarissa, what do you want? Why keep me in this suspense ? 4 ‘ *>h, Mr. Popps, you're so cruel! Maybe I ought to tell you the obstacle—but I can t, indeed I can’t.” “ Just as you please, Miss Cooler.” And Popps again picked up bis hat. “ Oh, Mr. Popps, pray don’t go—don't go yet awhile!” “ Then, Miss Clarissa, tell me the obstacle." Popps was evidently determined. Clarissa put her head on his shoulder, laboring under a strange agitation. Several times she essayed to speak. At length the breathed into his ear these fearful words : “ Oh, Mr. Popps, whenever I think #f our wedding day it gives me suck a palpitation of the heart"— Well ?” ts j nm fearful of the conscquencti. “ Fearful of the consequences 1 “Why, Clarissa, what under heavens do you meac J “ Why, Mr Poppa, you hav’nt read the Chronicle & •Sentinel to-day, or you would have seen Dr. Bliss’ article on ’Palpitation.’” We left Popps reading the article referred to, which i* in to-day’s paper, in another column. 6epl>-twJic.wlt I A Word or Caution.— We are satisfied that a majority of cases where coughs terminate in Con sumption. a resort to some potent yet snnple dy, like Wistard Balaam ofW’ldCherry would hare saved the life and health of the sufferers.— COMMERCIAL.

On Wednesday rather more demand was manifested, and about 700 bale’s wero run off, and on the following day 1,000 bales chang ed hands. Friday being a holiday no business was trans acted, and on Saturday we wero put in possession of ad vices to the 6th inst., per steamer Persia, via Liverpool; but the accounts previously received from England be iug not encouraging, the sales at the close of last week amounted to only 850 bales, but without any alteration iu price. Tlio opening of the present week under the influence of the dull tenor of the intelligence from Liverpool was rather more devoid of spirit than before only 800 bales having found purchasers, and yesterday not more than 1100 bales were disposed of at the quotations undermen tioned. The total sales since the date of our preceding report may be written at 4,356 bales, a daily average of 800 do.; and as the supplies do not exceed 86 bales our stock is now reduced to 96,500 bales.

MARRIED On the 26th ult., near New-York City, at the residence of her brother-in-law, Jos. Ilusson, Esq., Miss ALICE H MOSELEY, daughter of the Hon. W. D. Moseley, of Florida, and Dr. N. H. MOIIAGNE, of the same place. * At Cartersville, on 3d September, by the Rev. B. R. Bray, Mr. WILLIAM A. MITCHELL and MiHB MAR GARET SKINNER. On the evening of the 4th ult. in this city by the Rev. A. T. Mann, Maj. A. G. NAGEL, of Edgefield District, S. C., to Mrs. L. E. HALL, of Macon, Ga. obituary' DENNIS A. BELL was born in Burke county, Geor gia, June sth, 1835, and died on the 28th July, near Wes ton, Webster county, Ga., aged 21 years 1 month and 23 days. In the death of this amiable young man, a large circle of youthful companions has lost a kind and agreeable as sociate, that will not soon bo replaced ; and alas ! his fond and devoted parents, have sustained an irrepara ble loss, fie had been the subject of religious impres sions from his childhood ; and while yet a child, “thought on his ways, and turned his feet to the testimony of the Lord.” He united with the Methodist Episcopal Church at the age of twelve years, and from that time until his death, continued an exemplary member of the same. “ He remembered his Creator in the days of his youth and through all his life, while mingling and intermingling with his young companions, he ever maintained that high and amiable character that every young man should possess. He was ever ready to lend a helping hand to all objects, whose end was the promotion of his country’s interest and the good of mankind. He will be fondly re membered by many as a zealous member and advocate of the Cadets of Temperance. He also, in after davs, joined with the Sons of Temperance to help forward this glorious cause, in which he always maintained a high de portment. At a later period, he became equally at tached to the Order of the “ Knights of Jericho;” where he always manifested that brotherly regard to its mem bers that is due from one to another. In all these organi zations, he held high and responsible stations, tilling them with honor to himself and credit to those he repre sented—ever keeping an eye to the interest of the cause in which he was engaged. In disposition, he was amia ble, kind, and affectionate; devotedly fond of his parents, and always cheerful to abide their will without any dis sent whatever. In fact, his parents’ will seemed to be his, as he was always ready to concur in their wishes. Though his sufferings in his last illness were severe, yet giace enabled him to bear his affliction with Christian fortitude. In reviewing his past life, he could see that he had not lived as he wished to do ; yet, in this critical and trying moment, he felt that the grace of God was suffi cient for him. In his last moments he was calm and serene; calling, one by one, his parents, relatives and friends to his bedside, exhorting them to meet him in Heaven ; especially did he try to impress upon the minds of some of his young companions the importance of living the life of the Christian, “ that they might die the death of the righteous.” He then calmly fell asleep in Jesus. Thus has passed away, one loved and es teemed by all who knew him. He is gone, but his pa rents and friends, though heart-broken, sorrow not as those without hope, but look forward to the time when they shall meet again, where “ The wicked cease from troubling, And the weary are at rest; And we shall reign with Jesus, Eternal ages blest.” Weston, August 25,1856.

ADVERTISEMENTS. DISEASE OF THE HEART. PALPITATION. ONE of the most distressing <!!.-• ea cs that fl« hi. be ir to. A persou subject to it, is liable to an attack at any moment, whether lying, sitting, or walking. Its at tack is sudden, and often times without any premonition whatever, and too oftentimes without any appreciable cause, and the relief that can be offered to tho poor pa tient during the paroxysm, is exceedingly unsatisfactory, for but little can bo done that will in any way give much relief. This, of all other diseases that 1 have attempted lo treat upon, is the most important, not only from its being often times of so difficult removal, but from its being • > exceedingly liable to run into that structural di.seaso of tho heart, for which there .i no eu > , and would the spacebc allowed me, I should h i in duty bound to sufferinghumanity to make Uai of several eo} umns iu this papc\ that 1 might throw all the light possible for me to do, upon this all important disease, its causes, indications of cure, treatment, See Ac, in the hope that 1 might be the humble means of awakening suiferers with this disease to a true sc,so of their | - rii ous condition, and stimulate them t> U .-<• not.. • iu d tag some mode of treatment that would throw ..ffthat condition of the system which is the cause of tin* l'uuo tional derangement. There are two kinds of Palpitation, viz: that proceed ing from organic disease of the heart, or disease ..j it muscular substance, ami functional or nervous palpita tion. For the former, there is no cure; it is often pal Hated, but never cured. For the latter, although all treatment has been by some of the highest autlmritius discarded, and discat tied because (as they -ay) so little, if any, success attends any remedial eifort tl .it r.i. . bo made. Yet, a well direett d treatment is not only of mo -t ■signal benefit, but will effect a cure, providing the grand cause of the functional derangement be well understood, and a treatment instituted with direct reference to it So far from discarding all treatment, it certainly should receive the closest investigation mid scrutiny, aud c\ cry possibleexortiou should be used towards its removal, Jest its continuance should bring about that structural organic disease of the heart, which in niue cases out oi ten, i • the result of prolonged, uncured, and uncared for function al disease. Organic, or that incurable disease of tho muscular structure of the heart, is produced, as 1 have already h.i id, by the nervous or functional disease of that organ, and from this fact, the functional disease should have every* remedial attention paid to it, iu the hope that cro it be too late, a treatment may be instituted that will do away with the cause of the functional, and thus prevent the oe currcuce of the organic. And, now what is the cause of nervous palpitation or functional disease of the heart f But, before answering this question, let us see what are generally* the accompanying symptoms. The pulse, gene .ally, arc from 90 to clean, roil aud swollen—irritation and redness about the tonsils—bowels generally very irregular—headache ami tin*lied iu-e - tenderness at the pit of the stomach—acidity and flatu leuce —sleep uurefreshing—depiession of spirits of hours’ duration —feet cold —skin highly* sensitive to changes in the atmosphere, Ac. Ac., giving the most positive assu rance of a highly congested and irritated mucus mem brane of tho digestive organs. The cause then of tier vous palpitation or functional derangement of the heart, has its origin in disease of the stomach and digestive or gans, the removal of which Is of the first important o, for by so doing we cure the functional disease, ami steer our pa tienl clear of that terrible structural organic disease of tho heart, for which there is no cure, and but very little relief frem palliatives. And, by the by, I will lu re take occa sion to remark, for the benefit of sufferers, that as a gene ral thing where functional disease is stubborn aud of dis ficult removal, physicians are too apt to impute their ill success to the disease having passed into tho structural organic, disease; and so I w ould say to all, be not dis mayed, for your physicians may be mistaken, and you may yot be relieved by timely application to proper remedies. Tho true indication of treatment then, is tho removal of tho highly irritated and congested condition of tho digestive organs; and If there is any disease requiring the most particular selection in remedies, this most cer tainly is one, not only because most valuable time may be lost hi the taking of improper remedies, but the ex ela tion of remedies not consistent with tho true comlir :ou of the stomach, may increase still more the di tease and l.a ton ou the structural orgauic disease. The remedy above all others, tbr this disease, is “ BUNS’ DY.Nl'Ei* TIC REMEDY”—a remedy in w hich the most implicit confidence may he placed, for, if taken closely according to directions, together with living up to all the accompa nying directions, so far as circumstances will permit, it will most assuredly effect a permanent and speedy cure. To all subject to this disease, 1 would say get this modi cine atouce, aud lose no time in placing your system un der its remedial iullueucc, for every day lost brings you just so much nearer to that incurable disease -organic disease of the heart.
