Cure for thf. Bite ok the Rattle Snake.—
A little girl, of this vicinity, was cured of a rattle
snake lute recently, by the use of a strong decoc
tion ot white ash leaves, taken internally, aud also
applied to the wound. The decoction was not used
until the day stier she was bitten. Had it been
used immediately after receiving the bite, there
would probably have been no swelling at all.
There is a species of bla(k snake (not poisonous)
which always tights the rattlesnake when he meets
him, and always kills him. • But, in the encounter
he generally receives many wounds from the fangs
of his poisonous antagonist. These he cures by
chewing white ash leaves aud applying his saliva
charged with their pulpy juice, as a sort of lini
uisut. The instinct of the reptile suggested the
remedy to man. —Grand .Junction ( Term.) Quiit

Probable Murderof a Memphian in a Free

at a hotel, registered his name as D Franklin, from
Memphis, ana stated that he was on the lookout
for a couple of fugitive slaves belonging to him.
The gentleman, in a day or two, very mysteriously
disappeared, and it is believed that be was mobbed
and murdered. llis baggage aud effects still re
main at the hotel. One suspected party is already

Arrest ok. a Fugitive from the Georgia
Penitentiary.—Officer* Puckett and House sue
reeoed in ariesting yesterday, at the river, a man
by the name of Jesse Robinson, au escaped convict
from the Georgia Penitentiary at Milledgeville.
Robinson cam? to this city yesterday morning by
the 9 o'clock train, on the Memphis and Charleston
Railroad. He whs recognized by the engineer of
the traiu. who gave iu'ormatiou to the police con
cerning him. The above named < fiicers set about
securing the fugitive at once, but he eluded their
vigilance until about live o’clock iu the afternoon,
when they came upon him at the river while he
was searching for a boat on which to continue his
journey. He mad no resitauce, and confessed to
the officers that he was the man above described.
Kobiuson was senteuced to the Penitentiary for
tour years for killiug a man, but ouly served about
three months previous to inakiug his escape, wirch
was effected on the sth day of Juue, 1858. Hiw
one year of freedom will cost him dearly. He will
now have to serve a double term for ruuning away.
He is safely lodged in jail, awaiting a requisition
from the authorities of Georgia. —Memphis Ava

The Price nr a Kiss.—We noticed some time
since iu the Cincinnati Gazette a discussion in re
gard to the price of a kiss against the lady’s will, as
established by legal precedent iu Indiana, and it
whs stated that in one ot the counties iu that State
(we turret the name) a court had assessed a line of
forty dollars upon a gentleman for kissing a lady
without her consent. According to legal prece
dent, the price of kissing a Hoosier lady is forty
dollars.
In Tennessee, we believe, we have no legal de
cision upon this mooted question. Recorder East,
ot Memphis, has, however, fixed the price for an
attempt to kiss a lady against her will. According
to the Memphis Evening Argus, a gentleman from
Arkansas, who had visited the city for the purpose
ot transacting some business, steoped into a drink
ing saloon, not far from the Exchange Building,
kept by a German with quite a good looking wife.
The pro) rietor happened to be absent at the time,
mid the stranger after indulging in a drink of the
“rare warmer of life,” proceeded to make love to
the lady. He first praised her beauty, aud then
1 egretted that she was not either widow or maid,
as he would like to make her bis wife, vowing thst
“forty thousand brothers, a- Hamlet extravagantly
says, could not feel for her the affection be already
entertained. He then threw his arms around her
neck, and attempted to impriut a passionate kiss
on her lips . but not relishing this unceremonious
way o proceeding, she repulsed the amorous Boeo
tian, telling him that she permitted no one but her
husband to indulge in that luxury. The husband
returning learned from his wite what had happened
during his absence, and pursued the stranger with a
daugeious boulder and a revengeful look, but be
fore he had an opportunity to wreak vengeance on
the offender, the “fine Arkansas gentleman ” was
arrested by a police officer aud taken before the
Recorder, who fined him ten dollars. This, then,
maybe regarded as the piice of attempting to kies
a lady against her will in this State. What would
be to pay if a mau succeeded in imprinting a kiss
upon the lair one’s lips remains to be decided.
A geHtlemau at our elbow intimates that kissing
a yuog lady, (whether against her will or not, he
declares she resisted.) has cost him already oonside
rably more than the Indiana price, were it doubled
mo re than half a dozen times. Served him right.—

Cut Railroad Travel.—There are ten difler
ent honse railroads for carrying passengers now in
operation in Philadelphia, covering a distance of
one hundred lnifee of single track. The number of

in all capacities, amount to about one thousand
The Fourth of July was a great day on these roads.
Ths amount of money received on all of them, on

prospect for cotton as we now have in Madison,
and all the other cotton growing counties in West
Tennessee.
Weather— Crops — Grass. —The weather iu
this section has been unsettled for several days, and
while we write there ie a very strong indication of
much rain The season has been altogether too
wet for the crops, and we bear much complaint of
gras*. — Tkomasmlle Enterprise, 9 tk.
Weather and Crops — Possibly th* heavy rains
which have fallen during The past ten days have
been slightly injurious to a few of the bottom plan
ter?, but on the whole, it is estimated that their
value to the State has been over a million of dol
!ars, in increased crops of corn and cotton. — Arkan
sas Gazette.
We have accounts of tine rains, and good pros
pects for crops, from all parts of Texas except the
region about Gonzales and San Antonio, where
there have been slight showers, but where the corn
crop is elili suffering from the effects of the drouth
—Galveston Civilian.
The Crops South. —W'e have eaid but little on
this subject during the present season, from the
fact that peop'e talk but little where there is noth
ing to complain of. Thankfulness is not halt so
out-spoken and noisy as its opposite emotion of
discontent. We may say, generally, that we do
not recollect a year when the planters of the South
had less cause for complaint. Toe crops of every
kind, and everywhere, are doing well, the wet
weather, iu certain circumscribed districts, being
the only inauspicious incident of the season ; and it
is by no means clear that even that has affected
cotton to any serious exteut. It has made the corn
crops thrifty and luxuriant.
Ou the whole, the South has abundant reason
for thankfulness thus far, ard, without disaster, the
labor of the year will be crowned with an ample
reward.— Sarh. Rep.
The Crops. —Notwithstanding the reports of
early blooms, we find the cotton along the railroad.-*
from this place to LaGrange unusually backward.
The weed generally is very small as yet, and
blooms are rarely to be seen. Corn is much better
advanced, but iu some places it has suffered for the
want of rain, and many of the stalks have taaseled
quite smaii. We believe that this crop will not be
more than an average yield per acre, and we hear
reports that many planters have planted less corn
and more cotton than usual keeping ou hand, in
stead of selling at present high prices, a considera
ble quantity of last year's corn to supply an antici
pated deficiency of this *eaeon’s crop. We Lhink
they will find this bad policy.— Col. Eng.

The Chicago Press and Tribune has letters from
various parts of the West from which we make
ext racte :
Faribault, Minnesota, June 30.— The June frosts
have aoue us no serious injury, It cut down the
corn in some low places, and vegetation is generally
backward ; but the prospects for an abundant crop
throughout the state never were better. Iu tins
vicinity there has been nearly double the breadth
sown from last year.
Elkhart, Wis., June 30.—Showers within a few
days, just in tiu e to save our Spring crops. Winter
wheat is injured more or less in this section by au
open Winter, and grasj will be very light this com
iug harvest.
VV in.neiiago Cos., Illinois, July 3—The wheat is
generally very thin on the ground, and short in the
straw, but the ln-ads are of good size. 1 think it
sate to say that throe fourth* of a crop of wheat
will be had. The amount of land sown to wheat iu
this county is not near eo much as last year. Bar
ley generally looks well and will make an average
crop.
Dupagk County, June 28— The prospects of
crops are thus far good, promising an abundant har
vest, especially Spring grain, which looks first rate,
although some pieces are pretty thin, but may yield
an average crop. Fall grain is, I suppose, an entire
failure. I have seeu but very little. Ido not sup
fiose there are fifty acres in Dupage couuty. Corn
ookß as well as cau be expected, especially that
which was planted late.
Douglas County, July I.—The harvesting has
just commenced in this vicinity. Wheat is first rate.
By Monday about all will do io cut. Everything is
doing fiuely ; corn growing faster than I ever saw it
before. Hungarian grass is well up and promises
finely. There is no rust on the wheat, nor aoy cheat
of auy account that I have heard of.
La Salle County, July 4.— Another frost last
night; but it has probably done very little damage
to the crops in this city.
Mercer County, July 2. —Everything about our
growing crops appears very promising, and if no
thing befalls them we are certain that they will be
much more than average.
Lawrence County, July s—Many of the fields
in this section of the State will produce full forty
bushels to the acre of the very be9t quality of grain.
Scott County. —The Winchester Chronicle says
that the Wheat crop of this couuty will turn out
better than was anticipated some time ago. Har
vesting has already commenced, and the Wheat is
ol a most superior quality.
Chicago to St Louis.— ln riding between these
cities 1 noticed the condition of the wheat, oats and
corn growing along the line of the Chicago, Alton
aud St. Ltuis Railroad, and I cau assure you I ne
ver saw a better prospect. Below Springfield har
vest, will commence Monday, 4th. The wheat i3
particularly good.
The Crops jn Michigan. —At last we have some
detiuite knowledge of the prospects ot the wheat,
crop in Michigau, and are happy to be able to con
gratulate our readers that neither the late untimely
iro3U, the doleful croaking of unscrupulous bulls ,
nor tho anxious fears of nervous agriculturalists,
have had any effect in defeating our hopes of an
abuudaut harvest. —Detroit Advertiser .
Met*tins In Lincoln.
At a meeting of the American party, this day
assembled iu the Court House in Lincolnton, the
following preamble and resolution* were unani
mously adopted:
It is the right and the duty of a free people, who
have committed the administration of public affairs
to the care of Representatives and Agents, to hold
those Agents to a strict accountability as suob.
Wbeu this uuty is neglected, and this right is uu
exerctsed, the people's agents grow inattentive to
tho interests of their constituency—become dere
lict in the discharge of their obligations. —faithless
to the promises they have made, and the duties
they have assumed-and, finall/, taking courage
from the indifference, aud emboldened by the apa
thy of their master, they add to faithlessness the
crimes of fraud, falsehood, corruption and venality,
to retain the place their misconduct should have
forfeited —while they prostitute office to encourage
the most nefarious projeots, and lend the counte
nance aud prestige ot place and power to foster
aud accomplish the base designs of ambitious dema
gogues.
Decay and ruin are the proximate and ultimate
consequeuces ot such indifference and neglect in
the ordinary businesses of life—the los3 ot liberty is
the consequence of the apathy of the people—“ the
price of Liberty is eternal vigilance”—and it be
comes us as an intelligent aud free people to inquire
whether we are not pursuing that course which will
end in dissolution
Asa part of the American people, determined in
weal or iu woe to stand by the country we love—
and if need be to re-enact the scenes which made
tae three hundred Spartans fame us, and make of
every political battle-field a bloody Thermopyla*
—if, otherwise, we cannot rouse our sleeping
countrymen to come up to the help of our country
against the mighty—we lift our voices against the
corruption and misrule of the present dominant
party —we arraigu the present Democratic party
before the bar ot public opinion, aud appeal to the
history of the times for the truth of tho position
which we assume.
It has doubled the expenses of the Government
in a time ot peace—exhausted the national tiea
sury—hypothecated the revenue* of the government
beyond the anuual income, increased the public
debt, exposed the national credit to the public
outcry of valuation; and appalled by their own
mischief, and fearing the terrible wrath of an out
raged people—they have left some of the depart
ments of Government unprovided with appropria
tions, without law or warrant to be self-sustaining
during the recess of Congress.
Calling itself Democratic, it ha* fostered, en
couraged, and applauded all the isms that prey upon
the rights of the people, using them as means to
accomplish its owu end—securing the spoils ; and
is equally the friend and patron of the higher
law ism of the East, and tne Mormoniem of the
West.
Boasting its nationality, it is sectionalized by
every local issue receiving the imprimatur of
public approbation. In the northwest, led by men
who have declared their willingness to head a regi
meut, to subjugate the South, lu the East, con
trolled by, aud covertly giving direction to the
prevailing sentiment, it has declared hostility to
slavery, and lent its countenance and aid to schemes
intended to circumscribe its limits, and invade its
territory. Iu the South, renegade Whigs have
been its counsellors, aud the old faith of Henry
Clay—but miserably diluted with the pantheism of
modern Democracy—has been re baptized, and
adopted as Democratic; and while denouncing the
principle which lost Kaunas to the South, and by
the acknowledgment of its leaders, will prevent the
admission of any mote slave States —it i* secretly
stroking the mane of the Western “Giant”—the
author and finisher of this immense iniquity—and
offering its back for his elevation to power.
Iu the West—fruitful in schemes for public
plunder , its rallying cry is the Pacific Rail Road ;
that gigantic project for plunder and pillage, and,
in the same breath it denounces the system ot in
ternal improvements by the general Government;
clamorous for the Monroe Doctrine, it filibusters for
tbe support of Young America; covetous of Brigham
Young's position aud power, with words of right
eous indignation upon it* lips, it supplauts Brigham,
aud theu becomes a convert to his religiou, and
demands toleration.
Iu view of all these facts, and many others of
national aud local character, what is the part of
reason, of patriotism, of duty I
Resolveil, That we, a portion of the people of
Lincoln county, justly indignant at the outrages
and the misrule of the present dominant parly, i
hereby declare our uncompromising hostility to the j
‘•wickedness in high places,’ and that we will unite I
with any and every party and people of like con
viction of duty, for the overthrow of the present
Democratic party.

The Eighth District.
Mr. Editor A correspondent of your paper
bxs proposed the name of Mr. Akerman, of this
county, as the Opposition candidate for Congress
in this District While many of Mr. A. s friends
w ould be glad to see him in the political field, it is
well understood here that his fixed purpose to de
vote himself exclusively to his profession, would
acceptance of the nomination.
The Opposition of Elbert will give a hearty sup
port to the nominee ot the Augusta Convention.
We believe, however, that their first choice is Cot
Wright, of Jefferson. They well remember his
services in the memorable campaign ot 1866. That
campaign was a test of firmness aad sincerity.
Thousands who have no natural affinity with the
modern Democracy, suocumbed to the pressure
which the horde of spoilsmen organised under that
name then contrived to impose upon the South.
But Col. Wright saw the trick end exposed it; and
though abuse and ridicule were then poured on him
without measure, every succeeding month sinoe
Buchanan's inauguration has verified his predictions
and proved his sagacity. Hi* xeal, his courage, his
ability and his patriotism, give turn a fair claim to
the nomination ; and it the people are true to their
interests, the substantial honor of an election will
follow of course. Elbert.
.Tfeerin# io Greene County of ilie American
Party, aud ttioue opposed to the present
State and Federal Administrations.
A large and respectable number of the citizene of
Greene county, having gambled in the Court
house to day, July sth, for the purpose of appoiu’
ting Delegate* to the State Convention to be held
in Milledgeville on the 3rd Wednesday in this
month, and also to a Congressional Convention, for
this (7th) District, ou motion of Col. Y. P King,
Col Rowan H. Ward was called to the chair, and
Reuben J. Dawson wife appointed Secretaiy. Ths
object of the meeting having beeu explained by
the President, M. W. Lewis Eeq , proposed the
following sentiment* for their consideration :
Col. M. W. Lewis having been requested topre
face the resolutions with a tew remarks, did eo iu a
a most spirited and forcible manner, ilri points
were wen hedged and guarded, whilst he showed up
the Admiuiatratiou for its sins of oinis*iou and
commission. The Democratic party caught with
it its share. lie spared not the woodman's tree.
He poured in both grape and cani.-ler, upon the
present Federal and State policy, dissecting both
like a skilful surgeon. Here and there, he would
deal a thunder bolt, and then passing cn as if
nothing had happened, would strike and split his
polished lightning, streak aft?r streak, until really
it appealed that both the Federal and State Ad
ministratione were passing athwart tbe storm.
Gov Browo * Administration received his atten
tion, tbe State aid and Bank Veto, &c , were un
vailed of their hidden mysteries. Raving finished
his remarks, be retired amidst deafening applause
PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTIONS.
We, a portion of the citizen* of Greece county,
assembled for the purpose of appointing delegates
to a State Convention, called by tbe Executive
Committee of the American party, and to a Con
vention hereafter to be held for the Seventh Con
gressional District, knowing t to be the right, and
deeming it to be the duty for the people, in their
primary as3emblies, to declare their opinions upon
matters of Federal and State policy, au, therefore,
promulge the following sentiments :
FEDERAL POLICY.
1. We hold our present Chief Magistrate respon
sible for Robert J. Walker’s course of policy in
Kansas—the latter avowing, and the former admit
ting, in hie last annual message to Congress, that
the agent was following the instructions of his
principal. We commend the President for receding
from that policy, when he saw the storm gathering
in the South, but say nothing ot his motives. But
if they were patriotic, we do censure him tor not
having the manly candor to acknowledge hi* error.
2. We condemn the mammoth project of buildirg
a Pacific Railroad, at the public expense, a* iuvo”
ving the expenditure of untold millions, and in
creasing the patronage of the Government, already
so large as to be dangerous to the liberties of the
people.
3. We charge aud accuse the present Adminis
tration with unprecedented extravagance and cor
ruption—extravagant for its annual expenditure of
eighty million* in a time of profound peace with ail
foreign nation*, and corrupt for it* application of
much of this amount to the shameful purpose of
propping up its falling fortunes. The extravagance
of Mr. Van Bureu’s administration raised a stoiin
of indignation throughout this land, that swept him
from (slice and consigned him to lasting privacy.
His administration, compared with the present,
stands as 40 to 80. We kuow the difference *f
circumstances, but think it the expenditure of 10
millions was extravagant in 1839, 50 millions should
suffice for 1859.
4. We utterly repudia*e the sgn alter sovereignty
doctrine of Stephen A. Douglae and his wing of the
Democratic party. Formerly the South was a unit
iu this condemnation. Now the doctrine meets
with apology from some, aud with approval from
others, as necessary to sustain its avowed cham
pion—the Prince of demagogues.
5. We, therefore, will appoint delegates to re
present us in the Convention to be held in Milledge
ville ou the 34 Wednesday in this month, for the
purpose of organizing Opposition to the present
Democratic pat tv.
6. We cordially approve of the course of our
Representative in Congress, the Hon. Joshua liill,
and look upon him ae a gentleman of high promise,
and a statesman to whom we are willing to commit
our interests and honor iu the next Congress.
7. Wo reeommend that a Convention be held ou
the 3d Wednesday in this month at Milledgeville,
for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Con
gress from the 7th Cougreisional District : and ap
point five delegates to such Convention, whenever
aud wherever it may beheld.
8. When the American party was formed, we
considered the immense immigration of foreign
paupers and felons into this couutry, their speedy
naturalization, and the partiality shown them by
the two parties ot thii country, then iu existence,
for the purpose of obtaining their votes, as great
evils. We still consider them such. But we see
a more dangerous enemy, of late, iu the encroach
ment* of Federal power, aud its base prostitution
for party ends. No wonder that a distinguished
Senator, affiliated with the dominant party, said in
the U. S. Senate, “This is the most corrupt Govern
ment ou eaith! ’ We, therefore, are willing to
drop all other issues, for the time being, and unite
with any of our countrymen, native or ad pted,
Whig, American or Democrat., f r the purpose of
expeiliog from power those who have proven them
selves unjit to be b usted.
STATE POLICY.
9. The late Gubernatorial Convention of the Dem
ocratio party held in Miiledgevil'e, with character
istic regard for the spoils of office, ignored every
issue of State policy, aud left the country in doubt
as to how much, and what part of the prtseat Federal
Administration they endorsed. It. would aeem, how
ever, that they approved Mr. Buchanan’s words
and condemned his acts. When was the issue
which has beeu so eagerly pressed at the last three
sessions of our Legislature, and so warmly recom
mended oy Governor Brown, in his last, annua!
message, of granting the aid of the State to Kail Road
Companies T We deem it the great question of
State policy, and one of stupenduous import, es
pecially to the heavy tax paying counties in the
State.
When was tbe issue as to the reduction of the
Legislature, the necessity of which is evident to the
intelligent advocates of law, order and conservatism?
We here, to-day, insist upon its accomplishment,
and strenuously oppose the formation of any more*
new counties, until the iiumber of the Legislature
ia limited by a constitutional provision.
10. We consider that Gov. Brown made a fortu
nate selection, in appointing to the suparinteudency
of the State Road, Dr. Lewis; since he has made
profitable what, under his predecessor, was expen
sive. Our charges in the last canvass, have been
made out by au opponent. We are oonteut on that
score. But if the uext Legislature should back the
Governor, in his recommendation of a general sys
tem of State aid, whioh the last refused to do—his
successors iu comiug time, will need the nett
earnings of such Roads, as the Western
Atlantic, to “foot the bill.” Besides, we deem it
indubitable evidence of the degeneracy of our
political condition, for it to be made a matter of
such great wonder and praise, when the money,
which belongs to the State, happens to be paid into
the Treasury, and is not applied to private and
partisan purpose*.
11. We condemn the Governor’s “Bank Veto
message,’’ as unstacesiran-like in its doctrines, and
dangerous in its tendency. Professiug to* make
war upon the Banks, aud to protect the honest
labor of the State agaiust the dishonest trickery of
monetary capital; he was dealing a deadly blow at
the interest of every man in the State who was in debt,
and was inflaming the moßt dangerous passions of
the people, by attemping to array cla*92B in hostility
to each other. It was fortunate for the country, as
well as for hid own reputation, that the Legislature
arrested the blow. The one, it saved from bank
juptcy—the other from political death.
12. We, therefore, recommend to the State Con
vention to nominate a candidate for Governor, for
whom we can consistently cast our votes.
The above resolutions having been put and
unanimously adopted, on motion, Col. Y. P. King
to appoint a committee of three to nominate dele
gates to attend both Milledgeville Conventions on
the third Wednesday in July, the Chair named for
said committee Col. Y r . P. King, W. D. Weaver,

Resolved, That we give Gov. Brown credit for
all that he deserves, but we prefer an Executive
to manage the State Railroad, who can make it pay

of Savannah.
Resolved, That our first choice for Congressional

Lexington, July sth, 1859. t
The Uiuversitt or the South. —We are very
happy, as will doubtless be a great number of our
readers, says the N. O. Picayune, to learn that, un
der the active and energetic management of Rt.
Rev. the Bishops (Polk and Elliot,) of Louisiana and
Georgia, the General Commissioners of the Trustees
to canvass for subscriptions, some *340,000 of the
required*6oo,ooO has already been obtained for the
commencement of this great enterprise This amount
is almost daily increasing, and there is every reason
to warrant the assurance that within a very few
months, if not weeks, the entire earn will be made
up. This *340,000 ha* been subscribed by some
fifty or sixty individuals, in sum* of from *I.OOO to
*4O 000. among them the last named amount has
been subscribed by Ex-Governor Henry Johnson,
of this State. Several gentlemen in Louisiana and
in other States have signified their intenton, we un
derstand, over and above tbeir liberal subscriptions,
to provide the necessary funds for the endowment
of professorships, when the proper time for arrang
ng the working of the iuftiuitict stall have arrived
Opposition .Meeting in Emanuel.
Agreeable to pre\ious notice, a large poitkno
the people of Emanuel a seuabled in the Court
House, for tbe purpose of eending delegates to tbe
conventiou to meet at Milledgeville od the 20th
July, inst. Elam B. Lewis,
sident, and William Salter and Samuel Kennady,
Vice-Presidents.
On motion of Wm. J. Tucker, Gideon 11. Brown
w 8 requested to act as Secretary.
The President called the meeting to order, and
eaid io.order that the object ot the meeting might
be thoroughly understood, he would request John
R. Prescott, E q , to explain tbe ol ject ot the meet
ing. It being tb desire of ail, Jehu R. Prescott
arose and very feelingly explained the object of
the meeting, aud moved that the President appoint
a committee of ten to report business for the meet
ing. Tne motion prevailed, arid the President ap
pointed John B. Prescott, E.-q , John Oglesby,
Wm J. Hull, Samuel Biowo, A. II Rrddiug, John
A. Phillips, A. W Gillis, B L Lane, D J. EJen
field and D. S. Moore, as that ccmmittee.
The committee, after retiring a short time, re
turned, and through their Chairman, John R. Pres
cott, Esq , made |he following report:
Whereas, The Democratic party has proved it
seif false to the true interfsts of the people, and for
many years fostered and still encourages hu undue
influence in the politics of the country, for mere
party purposes , and tustaios its present adminis
tration in a reckless and profligate extravagance,
that exceeds anything in the annals of our country,
aud therefore gives great cause of alarm to those
looking to the future good and prosperity of our
country.* We therefore believe it io be tbe duty of
the bouest, good and conservative people to unite
themselves together, disavowing all sympathy or
co-operation with the “modem Democracy,” more
especially as administered by James Buchanan ,
and assume their proper and legitimate position of
iadependecce, and put down this “Democratic
misrule therefore,
Resolved , That we fully cor cur with the “ Ame
rican Central Execu ive Committee,’’ in sayirg,
“That their highest object was to thrust from power
this ‘modern democracy,’ aud to accomplish it they
would vote for auy eonet-rvative man that opposes
the Democratic party ; therefore let us make a
common cause of it; together with conservative
Whigs, aud Independent Democrats, make a bold
descent upon the spei ameu, and together share iu
the honors of victory,” and the restoration of our
government to its “Fillmore” puiity.
Resolved, Tnat w e approve ot the Opposition
Convention, to meet m Milledgeville tbe third
Wednesday in July inst., and we appoint as dele
gates to said Convention, John R Prescott, Esq ,
Neill McLeod, John A. Phillips, W. J. Tucker,
Gideon II Brown, George W. Clifton, John B.
Higdon, E. j q.,aud David J. EdeoGeld, with power
to fill vacancies.
Resolved, That we send our delegates with no
instruction), save this —to gw for any measure that
they think wiil redound to the good of our whole
people.
On motion the resolutions w ere unanimously
adopted, j Applause.]
On motion of John B. Higdon, it was requested

The Dohn Goi.d Mine.— This mine is situated
in Abbtville District, South Carolina, near the
Edgelield line, and about six miles from tbe Savan
nah river, and according to O. M. L eber, State
Geologist, is one of the richest and most productive
in the world.
On the hill of the older Dorn Mine, are two veins
—one of which opened in 1851, in the period,
extending up to 1854, yielded about SSOO,(JOU. One
bushel of the ore from a single blast was tried by
Mr. Dorn, for the purpoaeof ascertaining tLe average
production of the richest portion ol tbe lode and
was found to oontain the large sum of $l,lOO. A
single small horse mill wan employed in working
the main portion of this vein, and yet during the
most productive period, the weekly yield amounted
to about SIO,OOO.
North of this vein, about thirty feet, is another
which has been opened for about two hundred
yards and is the one which is now cbiedy worked.
This vein has also been very productive. The ag
gregate yield ot the New York Mine has been
about $-.100,000, and the production of this Mine and
that of the Dorn Mine, has been $900,000, although
engines have been employed ODly within the last
Bix years. The average per oentege of the purest
gold of the mine has been 98. t cents per penny
weight.
A Simple Truth for Planters —The Federaj
Union says:
“Those who at this time, and under existing cir
cumstances, in defiance ot all laws, State and Fed
eral, attempt to carry on the African Slave Trade,
not only violate the penal laws of the land, but-, in
our opinion, they also war against the vital inter
ests ot the South. At the present time the products
of Slave Labor bear a good price, and planters in
ail the Southern States are prosperous. They have
almost a monopoly of the great cotton trade in their
own hands. As yet no other country has been
found able to compete with them in the production
of this great staple, and consequently slaves and
the products of slave labor bear a high price. But
in the midst of all this prosperity they are asked by
the advocates of the Slave Trade, to enter into
competition with themselves, to import wild ne
groes from Afrioa that they may bring down the
price of cotton and all the products of Slave Labor,
and at the same time bring down the price of ne
groes, and all this for the benefit of Old England
and New England, both of whom are very anxious
to get cheap cotton ”,
Interesting Disclosures— A Penitent at the
Confessional. —James W. Lynd, late editor ot the
Henderson (MinD ) Democrat, announces, in a late
number of that paper, bis retirement from the edi
torial chair and his renunciation of Democracy.—
Here are his reasons for the step :
1 have, also, to acknowledge a change of senti
ment, which is an additional reason for my retiring
from this paper. I have tried the Democratic party
of Minnesota, and foued it wanting. Its leaders I
have found corrupt and unscrupulous, and its enun
ciated principles, things made te read, but not to
follow. From conversation this Spring with many
of the leaders of the party, both here and in other
portions of the Slate, I became convinced that their
Lopes of success in the coming Fall campaign, were
entirely based upon anticipated bogus returns from
Renvide, Murray, Cottonwood. Pipestone, Pembia,
and other out ol the way countiesand I was not,
therefore, surprised, cn a late visit to St. Paul, to
hear this broached to me and unbiushingly antici
pated, by Democrats high in State offioes. The
pollution of the ballot box seems, in their opinion,
to be a legitimate road to success.

Washington, .July s.—Voluminous despatches
were received at the State Department this morn
ing from Mr. McLane, our Minister in Mexico.—
Tbe aspect of affairs had not materially chauged
sinoe he last, wrote to the Depirtment. Thp high
handed aots committed by Miramou were driving
even the few who have heretofore adhered to him
in opposition to him, aud his rule was considered
near at end
He had, after long conferences, formulated a pro
ject of a treaty with the Juarez government, and
had laid it before the Mexican government for
consideration, but had nor received any answer
when the steamer sailed. It covers tbe ground of
material aid both in men and money from this go
vernment to Mexico, in return tor which certain
commercial advantages aie proposed to be granted
to our citizeus, and a right of way through the
.State of Sonora to a port ou the Gulf of California.
No sale of territory is treated for, as the constitution
so strictly binds President Juarez that he cannot
treat for a sale.
Mr. McLane having ascertained the utmost that
the Juarez government can do, aud what it asks
for, has judiciously declined to sign a full treaty,
but has reduced the propositions to a treaty form
which will be submitted to the government here.
As nothing can be done till Congress meets, and
there are many pressing qiestious for Cabinet con
sideration, these Mexican urepositions could hardly
be taken up at present if here, and there will be
plenty of time for their discussion.
The British Minister’s leceut course at the city of
Mexico was severely condemned by British sub
jects, and it was unuerstood that a movement was
ou loot by them to petition for his immediate recall.
Friends of Plumer, the mutineer, arrived here ou
Saturday, with a large number of petitions, together
with additional evidence in his behalf, which they
allege tends strongly to mitigate his crime—all
which was laid before the President—aud he haa
had it uuder advisement. To day the whole subject
wai considered in Cabinet Council, and after a
thorough examination the President decided to
commute his sentence to imprisonment for life; and
accordingly a messenger was despatched to-day to
convey the glad tidings to the doomed man and his
friends. Twenty thousand signatures, praying for
commutation, were sent during last week.
Jackson, Mies., July s.—The Democratic State
Convention assembled in this city to day for the
nomination of State officers.
John J. Pettus, of Kemper county, was nomina
ted for Governor on the seventh billot.
B. R. Webb, of Pontotoc county, was nominated
for Secretary of State. K. B. Burt, of Noxubee
county, was nominated for Auditor, and W. D.
Ilayues, of Holmes county, for Treasurer.
WASHir*GToN, July?.—lt is estimated that a re
duction of from two to three hundred thousand dol
lars will be effected during the fiscal year just com
menced by tbe retrenchments on the expenses at
tending the collection of the customs reveuue, now
in progrees. These will continue to be made from
time to time, as reliable information ou the subject
shall reach the Secretary.
A number of gentlemen from different parts ofthe
Union are makiug arrangements for an early pri
vate meeting at Washington, to consult as to the
best means ot bringing Gen. Lane, of Oregon,
prominently before the country as a candidate for
the Presidency. Tbe President continues to assure
his friends that he will not be a candidate for re
election.
The Treasury receipts for the week ending with
June, amounted to $2,000,000; draffs paid, nearly
$3,000,000; drafts issued above $2,000,000. Balanoe
in the Treasury, $4,438,000.
Leavenworth, K. TANARUS, July 7.—The express
from Denver City has arrived here, bringing dates
of the 30th ult. The accounts from the gold re
gion continue flattering. The Indiana were very
troublesome, and an expedition to chastise them
was faked of.
Mr. McCoy, who left Denver City on the 24th
ult., informs tbe St. Joseph Gazette that only eight
or ten claims have yet been discovered that pay.—
These are on the Gregory road, the rest being all
a desert. He eays that tbe reports ofthe richness
of other claims are absolutely false, and that the
miners were leaving in large numbers. Some three
thousand wagons are now on a return trip. Mr.
McCoy estimates that there are now about the
mines from 25,000 to 30,000 persons, most of whom
are doiog nothing or working for their board. He
says the mines will not support more than 5,000
people, and advises everybody to stay at home.
One hundred and thirty six troops from Carlisle
Barracks arrived here en route to Santa Fe.

OBITUARY.
Died in Columbus, Mississippi, on the evening of the
13th inst., in the torty-tbird year of her age, Mrs MARY
W. HARRIS, wife of Col. Geo. H. Harris, and daugh
ter of the late Col. Samuel Dowse, of Burke county,
Georgia
This mournful event has seemed to be inevitable for
months past from the insutliciency of the best medical
ski 1 of our country to control or arrest her disease, and
from the intensity of her sufferings. She anticipated it
with great Christian resignation, and met the “ messen
ger” with a composure and courage inspired alone by
Lei- laith in Christ. Her’s was a quiet and gentle
spirit. Her life was an earnest one, yet cheerful and
happy. Her unobtrusive piety-fervent in its aspira
tions—commanded the respect and admiration and won
the confidence of all around her, throwing an abiding
charm over the varied relat'ons of her life.
Few have ever better exemplified the Christian char
acter, as wife, mother, sister, mistress and friend; or
more fully illustrated in practice the religion of Jesus
Christ. Sincerity was the ruling element of her charac
ter. In her own emphatic and memorable words, she
was “ honest in serving God.”
Without bigotry, she felt charity and sympathy for
all who professed to love Christ. Her heart was ever
alive to the necessities, temporal and spiritual, of the
poor and destitute ; she never felt that she had done
enough for them.
She died leaving abundant testimony of her own ac
ceptance, and of her unwavering confidence in the pow
er and efficacy of God’s grace to save a world of sinners.
Only a few moments before death came to her relief,
she spoke of the “ clearness of her intellect,” which
seemed to be in answer to special prayer, and of “ how
precious her Saviour still appeared to her !”
She was converted early in life, and for many years
was a member of the Presbyterian church in Georgia,
bnt for the last eight y of her life she was an active,
useful member of the Methodist Episcopal church South,
in this city.
Those who knew her, will, in the above simple por
traitare, recognize her character, and in their hearts
bear testimony to its truthfulness.
To those who knew her not, all the eulogistic “ com
mon place’ of obituary praise, would be regarded as the
utterance of partial aud sorrowing affection.
Suffice it to say, she lived and cied a Christian, and
has entered upm her gaeat reward. “Thy will be
done,” oh God ! . G. H. H.
Golumbns, June 17tn, 1659.
Seldom has a task so painful, fallen to the lot of friend
ship, as that which is now oars—to record the death of
our lamented young friend, Mr. A D. GRAVE?, who
perished in the 27th year of his age.
Many who will read this simp e tribute to hi3 memory,
doubtless remember the circumstances of his death—
how be was brutally murdered near Savannah, while
defending the helpless, and protecting the property of
another. We pass briefly over that—no words of ours
may give him back the life eo suddenly and cruelly
snatched away—no sympathy, however sincere, re-am
mate the form now crumbling to decay. Y et, over the
grave of the murdered victim we may shed the unavail
ing tear of sorrow ; and, in a few brief lines, telling hew
he lived and died, pay due respect to his memory.
In Delaware reside his aged mother and sisters, to
whom he had ever been a comfort, a stay, and a protec
tor. They will await anxiously his c lining—in the
bush of twilight they will listen vainly for Lis approach
ir g footsteps—and long and eagerly will they watch for
some letter, or message from the absent one—until at
iast—God help them i —’.he news of his sudden and hor
rible death, will crush the last faint sunlight from their
hearts.
The deceased was brave and generous—strong and
faithful in his attachments —aiad “ even his very failings
leaned to virtue's side.” But that warm and noble heart
has t eased its pulsations—a grave, and an undying
memory, are all that is left of wfcat was ence onr friend.
Bat, may we not hope that a loving .Saviour received
him to his bosom ; and offer to his bereaved friends and
relatives the sweet consolation that he still lives in that
purer, happier sphere,
“ Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest.”

I Dr. Lillie’s \nodyne Cough Drops,
Anew and certain cure for Cuaghs, Colds, Asthma . Pain
in the. Bn iist : also. Croup, Whooping Coughs,
Colds, etc., amongst Children,
This is a pleasant remedy tu take, producing immidi
ate relief, and in uiue out of ten casta a prompt cure. It
exerci-as the most controlling influence over Coughs aud
Irritation o. the Lungs of any remedy known—often
stopping the moA violent in u few hours, or at most in a
day or two. Many cases thought U* be decidedly con
sumptive, l ave bet u promptly cared by using a few
bottles, aud the wearing Littleß Strengthening Plasters
on the Oh st. As an anodyne expecioraut, without a#
iringing the bowels, it stands paramount to all tough
mixtures.
DOLXi A.R VERMIFUGE,
Frepared and put up in bottles and vials only by W.
G. Little. In using, nothing else is required to relieve
children of worms ; and besides being one of the best
and cheapest ever offered to he public, its frequent use
in families will save much ’rouble aud expense, as wall
as the lives of many children; for eight outotteuof
every ten cases geucrally require it.
DR. LITTLE S FRENCH MIXTURE.
This is prepared from a French Red, e (in tne forms of
Nos. 1 and 2; the first for tie acute, and No. 2 for the
ebrontc stage,) that has been much Improved upon in
this country; and from it; unexampled success is likely
to supersede vr y other remedy for the cure ot the dis
eases of tne K idueys aud Slander, Gouoirheal, Blenroi
beal, and Lucorrheat or Finer Albus Allectious. This
extensive compound combi. o< piopcrti.s totally diffe
rent in taste and character from anything to be found iu
tbe United States Pharmacopea or in private practice ;
and in point cl safety an l efficiency is not rivaled in
America.
DU. LITTLE’S RINGWORM AND TETTER
OINTMENT.
llundredß of cases ot Chronic Tetters, Sca’d Hoad,
aud diseases of the skin generally, have been cured by
this remedy, aud since ibe introduction of the No. 2 pre
paration (being stronger) scarcely a < asu has been found
that it will not effectually eradicate iu a short time. For
the cure ot Cancerous Sores aud U cers, it is applied iu
the form ot Plasters, and is almost iuta'liblo.
Physicians are rtlerred to the 13th page of Dr. Little's
pamphlet, to the catalogues of medicine t tbe Materia
Medica, that he use.) in compuudiug his different reme
dies, aud asked to say it they are not the chief reliance
ofthe profession, as ho himself has practised luedioiuo
extensively for more than tea years, before retiring to
the drug business.
In more than two hundred places in Georgia, and in
all the Southern States, they are to be had; and as
there are scamps about who are counterfeiting his reme
dies by palming off their own or something olße, by using
the same or similar names, (for no patent is warned or
secured amid the absurd patents of the d*y,) let ail bo
cautioned to look well tor tbe signature ofthe proprietor,
and also his name blown into the glass of each bottle.

o, Gonorrhea, Strictures, Gleet, Leucorrhea and
aoaJagous csmplaiutfi of the organs of generation, both
male aud female.
Os all the remedies yet discovered, this is the most
certain.
It makes a permanent and speedy cure, without re
strlction of diet, drink, exposure, or change in applica
tion to business.
It is perfectly harmless.
It is not unpleasant to take, and contains no mercury.
It is put up, with full directions, so that persons can
cure themselves, without resorting to doctors ter advice.
It is approved and recommend a by the Royal Col
lege of Physicians and Surgeons, Londou.
It is prepared by Dr. Robert Franck, No. 43 Strand,
London. None other is geuuine.
It will invigorate the system, and completely renovate
and restore the genital organs to their original healthy
condition, even iu persons vho have past the meridian
of life.
In ordinary cases of Gonorrhea, or Leucorrhea, ono
bottle is sufficient to perform a perfect cure. Price sl.
In Gleets or Strictures, of long standing, its continual
use will always cure ; and in all diseases of the genital
organs, it will afford relief.
