Mr. Editor :—What baa Joseph E. Brown done
—what stroke of policy is he the author of ao much
greater than aoy of his predecessors, that entities
him to so much consideration ? Is it his superior
management of tbe Btate Railroad ? I suppose bis
tools all ever the State will answer ye# / In what re
spect is it superior to tbs administration of Gov.
Johnson ? Has he made more money f I answer
he has not. as much, as I wil! soon show. Ha- he
cleared more nelt ? I say no. And will show that
too. W hat has be done then ? I wiil Jet Lis friends
and puffers answer tfat question. Tbe last year
of Gov. Johnson's administration ending the 30th
of September, 1867—C01. James M. Spall* 3k fc*
(then) Superintendent Jof the W. 6l A. R R.. re
ports the gross earninga of the Road, from the JO h
Sept., ‘66, to 30th Sept., ’67, to have been $900,808
96. The expenses of working and maintaining for
the same period, Col S aaya wa* $435,827 66
Leaving a balance (as any one will see by aub
stractiog tbe lesser from tre larger sum, of $464,- .
981 40 as nett earnings of the Road. Remember j
that last fact. Now what became of the la?t men
tioned sum (as nett profits.) is tbe question that will
arise ?
Well, Col. Spuliock informs us that SIOO,OOO of
the amount was paid into the S'ate Treasury.
That account* for so much of it. But you wiil say
there remain*! over $300,000 unaccounted for. I
might drop that here, by saying with ibe Federal
Union, that the money was appropriated *o neces
sary and legitimate purpose*—and that is the truth.
Bat Col. Spuliock has left us more definite status ;
he says : ‘ Since my last report, new warehouses
(or depots) have been erected at AUatoona and
CLicamucga, Dalton depot has been c ompleted,
aud the one at Caes station nearly so ; 3M) tons T
rail have been recently received.’ 01. Spuliock
says, in another place, that: “Up to 1862, (Gov.
Johnson came into office in 1853; toe Road had
scarcely any equipment, and was paying other
Roads for repair* and rent of cars and engines, a‘
high ratea,” (this latter B'a’ement, the R ;.„b rr xn
whom the car* were renteu will verify.) It w%L
wa! the s*ate of things when Gov Johnson went
out of office ? I will allow Col. i>pill ok to
answer that question, taken from bis r pert ; he
says: “Toe rolling stock on banc is 53 locomotives
16 passenger care, 9 baggage cars, 468 o •. 6eig’
ca r*, 104 platfoim cars, 29 stock care, 27 v.J, c’^.,
17 gravel cars.”
That is a oretty good item ie it not ? A-1 show?
plainly what became of the money Thtre L .** m-t
Leena oing.c ar nur engine bought fur the Hj tc
siuce. And this is The state in which tbe bn., ’<•
Gov. Brown found the Koid, And right in toe
lace of ail theoe facts this upstart from Cherokee,
W'.uid make the public believe that G-v Johcaon
either stole the mor ey, or squandered it. But I
will leave tnis statement to 4 he justice of ar. impar
tial public —who ar- anxious to learn the truth, and
are not paid to build and bolster up the pol.t cai
fortunes of an aspiring demagugue. Now, us
see what G)V. Brown done. He went into
effice the latter pari of 1867. Gov. Br wn * ti-cal
ended (a* everybody knows) the 30rhofSep
♦-mber 1867. Now let'* aeo what the earning aof
the R >ad were from October Ist, 1867, to September
30 in, 1868
I w.U in order to do Gov. Brown no inja-tice,
give the statements cf Mr. B May the Tres-*urer of
tne Road. Mr. May say-: “Thegrots receipt* (or
-aTiiijg of the Road) from September the 3'lth,
1867, to September ihe 30 were sßsi,-
139 16
You will eee by subtracting the gross earning* of
Gov. Brown h admiinalrati n, f'orn (Lose of G >v.
Johnson’s—tlist Johnson'* is $lB 667,77 ahead of
Brown *. Nobody will deny th.*’ tatement. We i
how do you account for tbia i•?? oe the part of
Gov Brown ! It i* easily done. G Brown did
it by his narrow !i ien-aa, penny
wi.-e and pound foolir-hmi 4 ? ” Fn the first place he
raised tne rates upon “ through’’ freight s > high,
that it became the inteiest of abipptr& to send their
gtods by some other R< ad, which has 1< st to the
Stale Road many thousands of doliers. And again,
he has put dote a the freight on pig r<n that is
shipped Irom Cartersviile to Chattanooga, Tenn , to
$1 36 per ton. The uiguificauce of thus lowering
tbe rates on pig iron will be appreciated when the
public in informed that Dr. Lewis the Superintend
ent owns nine tenths (if not all; the pig iron that is
•hipped from Cartersviile. And now I will show a
little favoritism. Cothran and Eiiiot of Rome, Ga ,
are large shippers and dealer? iu pig iron, which
they ship from Kingston, Ga., to Chattanooga,Tenn.
The public will bear iu mind that Cartersville and
Kmgetou are both in Cass county and uea togeth
er. Now, how much reader do you suppose that
Dr Lewis charges them a ton for their pig iron ?
They have to pay $3 26 per ton, while Dr. Lewis
only charges himseif $1 36 per ton. Is t iat favor
itism ? is not Dr. Lewis using the W. &. A. U R.
for Is own peculiar interest*? Don’t he charge
him en ic , s tnan anybody else? I say be does—
•lender wi.i be deny it. But i must go back to tbe
the harmless and simple-minded Treasu
rer, h*r My, I have shown that Brown’s gross
was aOßßtuen that of John-on. I have also
cited a few iustance* above to account f or that
deficiency. Now let oh see what the expenses were
from Sept. 30 ’57, to Sept. 3l), ’SO. Mr. May eay3
tbey were, $394,227 84 1 will be sesn by sub
•trading the expenses of Brown’s administration
for one year, from tho-e ot Gov. Johnson for hi?
last year in office, that 16own’s expenses are $41,-
599 71 less than Johnson’s. Brown deserves credit
for that. I have always thought Mr. Johnson too
liberal, while Brown is on the other hand Diggardiy
and mean. But as any oue will see, this SII,OOO
and upwards, saved, does not make up for the
SIB,OOO and upwards lost in tbe gross earnings from
mismanagement and corruption. Now let’s see
what Gov. Biovvn s nett earnings were for his first
year's administration. Well, subtract his $391,-
227 84 expenses, from his $852,139 16 gross income,
and we have $457,911 32, as nett earnings. Now
you remember that Gov. Johnson’s nett earnings
were $464 981 40, which gives $7,070 08 favor of
Jobnoou. Now r is not this plain / Now is there a
man iu Georgia who cannot see that Gov. Johnson’?
nett earnings on the W. & A. K K. are greater ihan
those of Gov. Brown ? When I at-k this question
1 have no reference to those newspaper editors and
hirelings, the sine of whose hoe cake depends upo.i
the loudness of their puffs lot Browu. They would
consider purgatory a paradise for Johnson, it Brown
gave them the wink to send him there. Ti e peo
ple should, therelore, be careful how they take the
statements of newspaper scribblers that are in the
pay of Brown aud bound to do his dirty work.
Have I done Gov. Brown injustice in this state
ment of figures 1 I know 1 have not. I don’t
think there is a man in Georgia, even the Governor’s
tools, who will deny the truth fulness of this state
ment.
Now reader, can you see anything in this state
ment of facts, that places Gov. Brown in any light
superior to Gov. JobnsoD in his management of
the W. Ac A. R. R? Do you see auytbing imbis
management that is inimitable ? That is so good
no body else can do as well ?
Do you think it would be any difficult ta&k for
Warreu Afcipto do as well? Don’t you believe
any body of common sone and honesty, could do
as well? Now this is the record upon which
Joseph E Browu claims tbe support of ihe people
of Georgia, and brags that he expects to he elect
ed by thirty-six thousand majority. And blandly
says he don't think he can be sati-fi-d with less.
1 will here say, in justice to Gov. Brown, that I
think he will do better this year than he did last
year. The indications are now’ favorable for h >n.
And if he does, that is nothing to make him the
“prototype of Old Hickory.”
What eiso could he do with the money than pay
it into the State Treasury? The Roau was fully
equipped by Gov. Johnson, and Brown had but
little more than the ordinary expenses ol it - R &u
to pay. Does he deserve credit for not, w.- Ujg
away with the money ? Anybody that ha? koc
sense enough to keep the Rjad in working
is obliged to make money from it. But G .*v Brown
is right to depeuu upon his management <1 l*o
State Road for his set support, lor that certainly is
his best record But it is impossible for me, after a
comparison of the administrations of Browu and
Johuson, to see anything in the conduct of the
former, that entitles him to the support of the coun
try over any one etee. there is nothing suffi
ciently redeeming in his railroad oonauct, to enti
tle him to the support of the people, ,;ver every
body else, ought not his other record or records tg
d&nm him? 1 think so, and believe it will. The
people only want a little light; they wiil get it, too,
before tbe October election.
I have extended this too long now.
Auti-B. Democrat.
Mr. Editor I— A* yours is a paper of Jarge cir
oclatjon. I desire to 6bow in a few short articles, tbe
claim* of oue ol the greatest political quacks of the
age, upon the people of Georgia for their suppoit.
1 mean Joseph E. Brown In doing 00, I shall do it
calmly and dispassionately , use facts and figures
from the official reports. I have no doubt myself,
but that Gov. Brown’s popularity, (if any he does
really posses*,) is based upou faithiul puffing, as is
the worthies* nostrum of the quick medicine man.
To say that he is a pigmy, a Cuiffemptible up start,
is useless. There cannot be found two dozen dis
interested, really intelligent men—gentlemen of
enlarged views and liberality, but have tha moat
supreme contempt for the whining, slim-necked
bull-driver.
And a man who is a candidate for Governor of
Georgia, and will stoop so low a* to peddle the re
port through the State that he wa* so poor in his
youth that be had to plow a bull, and ask the people
for their votes upon such grounds, without any
leferenoe to his true merit, or ability to discharge
the duties of the office be aspires for, ia too con
temptible to deserve notice.
According to that, plowing a bull eeems to be
the only essential requisite to render one qualified
to be Governor of Georgia. Shame upon such
d*-mag*'gueii?u£—such low-lifed pandering! How
ca.’ a kOcOeman. a truly high-minded and hoaora
!c m; n, r. pect tuefi a person 1 A man that is
e*pab\'v.f ; uch conduct, where is the dep’h of
nuxuan depravity to which he would not Stoop, to
get a vote ?
But I did not oommencs this article to mak ?
charges ag&iust this umu Brown, but merely as an
introduction to what I intend hereafter to say. I
intend to do Mr. Brown justice ; I intend to use
figures from the Report of Dr. Lewis, and from
those of bis predecessor Col. Spuilock, and show
how this man Brown is trying to humbug the peo
ple. And right here I will say that Gov. Brown
has in my judgment managed the R>ad the beet he
oould. 1 believe he has tried to make it pay. And
he has succeeded 1 thiuk, about as well as any ot
nis predecessors; for the truth is, the Road iu the
condition it was when Brown came into office,
oould not be prevented from paying. But the pur
pose of Gov. Browu and his newspaper minion*
ha* been, to make tbe public believe, that he is the
only man who ever made the Road pay, and con
sequently deserves all the credit. His great effort
has Deeu to bui.d himself up et the ex/>ence *rd
disgrace of Gov Johnson, aud Johnsou s friends
Brown carat net, how low he sink* Johnson, so that
he (Brown) rises
1 have been astonished that Gov. Johnson should
iia still and allow this politicol speculator to tra
duce and desparage his (Johnson's) administration
and management of the Boed How can Gov

•>lr. Toomhft’ Speech.
Mr. Editor :—I am not a citiien of your State,
1 but happened to arrive ia your city ye-terday,
and leanfeg that your distinguished Senator, the
| Hon. liobert Toombs wa.- to ad drees you, I de
termined to hear him. He is to some extent my
representative as well a* your*; consequently I
have a right to express my view* cf him as a Sena
! tor. I mast confess that I was sadly disappointed
ii the Senator —but not in tbe man. Imagine my
feeiiog* when I look at him in 1840, battling for tH*
Whigs in the most bitter denunciation of the Demo
-1 crats, ch&racteriziDg them as thieves, plunderer*,
and robbers. The next time I hear him, he is ex
tolling that same corrupt organization, as the only
honest, Constitutional, and reliable one that i* in
the United States ; and venting his spleen upon the
iae'gnificant party—the Opposition. I repeat I
wa? indignant, aye disgusted with politics ; I do
{ not know the day when I have seen ths demagogue
so plain. He would dictate to the people of your
I State, that tney must sacrifice bis colleagues, and
get an honest one like him, or if they did not, he
would quit his posi ion;—if he ever does quit it, it
will be when the people forc9 him to do so, or he
gets some position that it is quite evident he is now
working for. Mr. Editor, Mr. Toombs, is what I
call a politician ; if the O ppoeition, I care not what
their creed is, should gain the ascendency in Geor
gia, I shall expect to find him battling fur them.—
He is decidedly the egotistical—he is decidedly de
ficient in that and goity, that ehould be embodied in
tne position of a Senator, from the Empire State of

“On the Stump”— Dear Cousin For fear you
may think we (Polly Ald acd I) have forgotten
you, I take my pen in band again. We have
heard you “on the Stump’’ within tte last ten daye,
and my Dear Ctuein, we came to the conclusion
that like Tom Haynep, when he saw the elephant—
that we were satisfied. Satisfied —Cousin Jinks —
that you could’nt speak —that you “let down’’ com
pletely aod that,aitho, comparison? are odious, you
are no more to be compared with Ranee, as to
ability —and ail the other requisites that go up to
wards the making of a Kongriseman—than any
other third rate lawyer we could sheer up in the
District But Cousin Jinks, I dont want you to
think that we nre disposed to disparage you. For
the honor of the Jones family—No ! Bat the “truth
must be told if the heaven’s fall,” Cousin Jink?! —
Why, my dear Cousin, es you should by the barest
accident get into Stevens Seat, of which, there is
now, I think and hope, no sort ot chance for you
to do, what on yelh would yon, or could you by
tongue, or sword, to defend our rights? Why—l'm
sure from what we heerd you say ou the Stump,
that es your parly was in danger you could offer
no resistance, aLd would offer none to B aek Re
publicaniem, es your uncle Bobuel and a few others
toid you 7rot to ! That you went for the Tarty—
the whole Party—and nothing but the Party—right
or wrong, weak or strong, short or long—now— I
leave it to yourself, waa’nt that, and aint it your
whole song ?
Ranee, a* I told you he would, called your “special
and p ariui” attention to old Back—the Echo nig
gers—Postal bankruptcy—the extravagance of the
Administration aud other matter*—not lorgetting
Douglas— and ho-w did you reply J Did you meet
the points with mauiinebu ? Did you defend your
party aud prove by the record ihe errors of your
antagonist ? Did you—panoplied in truth—defy the
contest and with lance iu rest—meet the foe ?
“Alas ! my countrymen , what a fall was there.”—
Xo t Sir ree ! with miserable subterfuges and dodg
ing* aud constant complaints of want of time—the
latter occupying tbe moat of your 3d minutes —you
doubled and twisted, backed and filled until even
those present who were opposed to you were so
absorbed in pity as to be relieved when you quit.
Ah Imy dear, but misled Cousin—l tell you, it
takes a “four miler” to run agin Ranee Wright ,
and he’s got to be trained up to the highest sort cl
racing order! Mile hordes acd quarter tackles had
better pay the forfeit and leave the track. A hint
to the wise, &c.
In conclusion, Cousin Jink*, I must say, that we
think you are out of your element, and as a “mas
teriy retreat” is as good as a fight with a whippin
added, we advise you to just keep followin’ Ram e
around to his appointments as you say he follows
you to yours, and about the end of the race boll
and never acknowledge you ever run. There’s so
many Joneses nobody will know which one it was.
Your old supporter and Cousin,
Paul Jones.

Tbe LittlcnetM of n Great Parly.
The most controling argument used in 1857
by Democratic presses and Democratic stump
speakers, to induce the people to vote for Demo
cratic candidates tor Congress, was the Btrengt'u o r
the Northern wing of their party, and its willing
ness to espouse our cause in a contest for our rights
and on tbe other hand the insignificance of the
American party in the same section, and their un
willingness to defend U 9 when assailed by the
Republican party. This argument had muoh force,
and gained tor the Democracy immense majorities
throughout the Southern States. They taunted the
opposition with their weakness, and utter inability
to accomplish any good for the South or the coun
try-ridiculed the idea of their few representatives
ocoupyipg seats upon the fl ?or of Congress without
a party, and without tbe influence to control a
single measure ;u tl;a* body. They then pointed
to the great, n&tionai, harmonious
Democratic party—called upon tbe South io looii
to it as the only and sure hope of safety—their
Northern brethren were numerous and sound, had
ever advocated our rights, and “ stood by us in
the hour of peril,” had passed the glorious Kansas
bill, and would see the principles of that bill faith
fully observed and established as the finality of the
ijis-rs.c’ing and threatening slavery question.
What was fhp sequel ? When th,e occasion first
v 1 2 tiled itself in the bill for the admission ot
Kansas, uudi-r the Lecompton ConatiUtion, to
carry into practical operation those principles, if
was found that so many of their faithful Northern
friends, led off by the father and champion of the
Kansas bill, had yielded to the pressure of freeeoil
sentiment, as lo leave tbe great Democratic party
utterly powerless and incapable of fulfilling the
pledges so uauntiugly volunteered to their Southern
constituents.
By reason of this desertion of their Northern
allies, the bill was defeated, Kansas rejected, jjbe
Demociatic pledges violated, and the Southjde
ceived. The question then was, how shall'the
Democratic members sustain themselves at home l
The first plan devised Kras that miserable subter
fuge, the English pill, pretending to the South to
admit Kansas, bat practically referring the Conati
tution back to the people for ratification, as the
disaffected Northern Democrats had demanded,,and
for the purpose of conciliating them. This failed.
The flimsy pretext in the hurry and excitement of
the occasion was badly covered up, aud immediate
ly discovered aud condemned by the Southern
people. Asa last resort, they hit upou the expedi
ect, so unworthy a great national party , and so
incons stent with their boasting, of cas -/ng the
whole responsibility upon a few Southern Ameri
cans who voted against the bill. Ha l it passed by
the aid of their votes, the Democrats would have
claimed alj the credit, and proclaimed it a triumph
of Democratic principles and a further proof of
the soundness ot the Democratic party—but since
it was dost by the defection of twenty Northern
Democrats, upon w'jose support the South was
exhorted to depend, the ignominy a’id blame i?
heaped upon a half dozen Americans whose aid
was not expected but despised, and whose sirength
wa* too iusigniticant to deserve any notice but
ridicule and contempt.
And yet this was done by the great, national ,
Democratic party.

The worthy gentleman who sends the above, says
in a private note—“l have always voted the Dem
ocratic ticket, but for reasons stated can do so
no longer. The Democratic party is no longer
National, in Georgia, and tbe South is preparing to
nominate and support Stephen A. Douglas, acd
Gov. Brown is a demagogue aud humbug.”
There are thousands of just such Democrat* in
Georgia, who are proving themselves superior to

Whose Meeting was That ?
Mft gDlToft Seeing a notice in the Constitu
tionalist las. week for a meeting of the Democracy,
at Concert Hall, on Thursday evening. I attended
at the appointed hour, hoping to hear good old
Democratic doctrine, as in days cf yore, when the
Schleys, Glasscocks and Walkers, were in the habit
of addressing assemblies, ench as this proposed to
be. Judge of my surprise when in the firet place,
the order of proceedings was announced by an “old
Whig” ; in the second place, when an old Whig
was called to the chair; in the third place, when
one of the Dark Lantern party wss called tofact as
Secretary ; in the fourth place, when a letter was
read from in old Whig for the edification of the
meeting, at the close of which he stated that
if the Opposition party, composed mostly of old
Whigs, his former associates, should get poesession
of the Government, they would be in the same pre
dicament as the unfortunate man, who drew an
elephant in a lottery. In the fifth place, an old
Whig addieesed the Democratic Meeting. In the
sixth place, lend calls were made for an old Whig,
who for a considerable time carried the torch of the
Dark Latern Party. In the seventh place, to see
him mount the stand and announce, that at an early
day, he won and meet hie opponents and discuss the
political questions of the aay—he who once conten
ded earnestly tor the Dark Lantern Party now is a
champion for the Democracy. Was that a Demo
cratic meeting ? Enquirer.

Ilnrk from the Toombs !
Mr. Editor : —I listened with a good degree of
interest to the speech of our lion. Senator Toombs
at Concert Hall, ‘aet evening, and was much amused
by bis system of reasoning. “ The party to which
lam attached ’’ was his theme. Hid most prominent
position wu*,that “ire,” the Democratic party, have
accomplished wonders for the country. “We” set_
tied the slavery agitation in 1787. “We’’ adjusted
the vexed queetion ot the return of fugitives from
labor. “We” established the Missouri Compromise
of 1820. “We” annexed Texas. “We” fought the
battle of Mexico, and secured California. “We”
declared the Missouri Compromise to be unconsti
tutional. “We ’ repudiated in Congress tbe idea of
Congressional Intervention iu regard to slavery in
the Territories. “We” have sately conducted the
whip of Sta*e through all the perilous times of po
litical disturbance and danger from the time of
“Washington’* down to the present day. And u we, ”
fellow citizens, are the only organized political par
ty now in existence, who have any oiaims upon
your respect or confidence. Now, this is all very
well for “Bunkum ” but when we take up the record
of Co*igresa, and also the record of the Honorable
geDtieinan’B private political career, aud find, as we
think we can, that every vote ami every speech,
aud every act of his, during his entire political life
up to 1854 atauding out in “living light,’’ in direct
antagonism to every act of the party who adopted
all the above named political measures, we are
forced to the conclusion that a mighty change “has
come over the spirit of his dreams” recently, and
common honesty would seem to dictate that he
should give credit aud honor to whom credit and
honor may be due. Again, with what thrilling and
sublime pathos he eulogized the Squatter Sovereign
champion of Illinois—characterizing him as a bold,
manly, far-seeing, and true national patriot , while
every movement, every act aud every vote of this
same distinguished “patriot” (?) (as the record will
show,) is, until very recently, in open opposition to
the movements, acta acd votes of our Honorable
Senator on all que.-tion? of political importance.
After thus extoiing the virtues of Mr. Douglas,
and finding that it did not lake with his audience
to suit him, he stated distinctly that he did not
agree with, but scouted, the principles advocated
by Mr. Douglas, thus virtually acknowledging
that he was neither manly, honest, or patriotic.
Again: His consistency on the suhject of tbe
national expenditures was about in keeping with
tbe above. He says : “ We ,” the “Democratic
paity, are not responsible for the manifest corrup
lion in the government pertaining to expenditures.”
It is not the party who (Jo these extravagant act*.
It is only members of Congress from different
localities who bargain with each other upon the
principle ol “you tickle me and Til tickleyou ;’’ you
aid me in getting au appropriation for my Cas
tom House and I will aid you in getting your Post
Office appropriation through. <kc. And “thus and
then,” says the honorable geutleman, “you are
swindled, taxed and robbed, fe.low citizens, and
the Opposition would have you believe that wc ,
tbe Democratic party, are responsible.” His argu
ment was simply this: “It i? true that wc haver
always had a clear working majority in both
branches of the National Legislature; wo havo a
Democratic Executive; our judiciary system is
completely in the hands and under the control of
our party; in short, we alone possess the national
power by ’wjficb 411 this vast system is put in mo
tion ; aucl yet, we l;ave bee M unable protect you \
from debt aud taxation, from the fact that the
South sent to Congress six live Americans , who all
voted against us in a body , and thus thwarted ad
our pi tns, destroyed all our hopes, demolished, at
one fell etroke, our beautilul edific*? of Democratic j
National economy, and involved our government in
a debt of immense magnitude, forcing ue into ac
tual national repudiation; and now, my fellow
citizeua, I entreat you by your love of country,
by y-<ur zeal for our party, by your special favor
itism for us. by all you hold dear in th „* present, and
by fell yopr hope/! in the future, to came up like
men and like true patriots aud at the ballot rjx
place the seal of your virtual condemnation upon
diabolical acts ot those wicked, reckless, extrava
gant, and anti Dem >cratic six Americans.
£uch is the import of the gentleman's address to
his Democratic friends; but I am free to accord to
him consistency wcerever he manifested any, and
in one single case his example would seem to cor
respond with his precept.
He remarked that if a person was about to tell a
lie ho might as well tell a whopper.
He tten made a statement in regard to the ex
penditure of the government during the last fiscal
year, and I understood him to set the full amount
at about $41,000,000, aud if the record of the
Treasurer be true, then truly did Mr. Toombs
make his example to d with his precept,
by telling a real “ whopper .”
The gentleman doubtless forgot to mention, while
Jje claimed to work ip the Senate chan, ber for tbe
aboliiion of the franking privilege, that the bill
which be passed and i’eturcod to the lower house,
contained a clause granting to each member letter
stamps to the amount of $l5O. Ycure,
Philo.
An Aurorul Nugget*
Mr. Meriam explains with more minuteness the
character of the specimen of the Auroral Light
which he has preserved in his cabinet. He says :
The Commercial Advertiser, tyro or three days
since, contained a paragraph in rplatian to an arti
cle ia my cabinet which I denominated a product
qt the “Siikery ot the Skies.” It is of an exqui
site whiteness and of silvery lustre, and when first
obtained was two or three inches in length ; but
on being placed between two layers of blue silk,
it assumed a round form not much larger than a
small pea. This substance I have frequently men
tinned in my communications on the weather, pub
lished iD the Journal of Commerce as electric lines,
resembling a silk warp, which are occasionally
seen in the high atmosphere, extending several
miles in length. These electric hnea when broken
have the appeurapee of beautiful ftoso silk or aider
down. Tne breathings ot the Mauna Lra volcano,
in the island of Owynee, are sometimes condensed,
forming what is known by the natives as Pole s
hair. The goddess of the volcano bears the name
ofPele. Many persons have seen glass spun into
fine hair—the hair of Pele resembles fine spun glass.
On the 10th of May, 1848, during a great earth
quake at Chantibun, Siam, there tame up out ot the
ground in market place:, ip the highways, ia the
fields, and in lact almost everywhere there, a sub
stance resembling human tair—it disappeared en
tirely after three days.
It strikes us that the “breathings” of Mr. Mari
am's credulity, if condensed, qpight be picked np
in the term of “palpable absurdities” more sub
stantia! than his “Siikery of the Skies.”
The Aurora Borealis and the Telegraph.—
During the auroral display on Thursday Dight in
Boston some curious phenomena were witnessed in
connection with the telegraph wires. The following
conversation, fays the Boston Traveller, between
the Boeton and Portland operators on the American
telegraph line, will give an idea of the effect of the
Aurora Borealis, on the working of the telegraph
wires:
Boston operator, (to Portland operator)—“Pieaee
cut off your battery entirely from the line for fif
teen minutee.”
Portland operator—‘'Will do eo. It if now dis
connected.’
Boeton—“Mine is disconnected, and we are work
ing with the auroral current How do you receive
my writing J”
Portland—" Better than with our batteries on.—
Current comes and goes gradually.”
Boeton—"My current is very strong at timos, and
we can work better without the batteries, as the
Aurora teems to neutralise aud augment our bat
teries alternately, making current too strorg at
times for our relay magnets Suppose we work
without batteries while we are affected by this trou
ble.”
Portland—“Very welL Shall I go ahead with
bnsinese t”
Boeton—“Vee. Go ahead.”
The wire was then worked for about two hours
without the usual batteries, on the auroral current,
working better than with the batteries connected,
The current varied, increasing and decreasing alter
nately, but, by graduating the adjustment to the
current, i sufficiently steady effect was obtained to
work the line very welL This is the first inr.anoe
on record of more than a word or two having been
transmitted with the auroral current. The usual
effects of the electric storm were also manifested,
such as reversing the poles of the batteries, fee.
Axin in Cheroxee —From various private
sourcee we are rejoiced to leant that Akin’s popu
larity in the Cherokee country is unbjunded. The
peopie are with him, and not only so, but the lead
ers are daily going over. Such men as Calhoun, of
Atlanta, \V W Clayton and J IV. Hims. of
Cass, and hosts of other leading friends of Gov.
Brows at the last election, are now warmly sup
parting Akin, as we learn upon good authority.
We are not surprised at this. Can there be a sin
gle intelligent man in Georgia who is not heart.iy
ashamed of our Governor 1 Grant that he is hon
est and patriotic and everything else that bis
iriends claim tor him—still, he is such an ignoramus
as to make intelligent men ashamed cf him.

for s gnatures among the clergy and iaity of the
diocese.
Among the clergy who have already eigned it,
I under Land, are maty who were conspicuous in
bringing the B’shop to judgment. The lapsof time
has softened thei*- resentment, and tli9 fraok ac
kuowlddgment of the Bishop of hi 3 offence, has
moved them to forget and forgive Among the
names that may be mentioned in this connection,
ar*; tliore of Rev. Dr Hawke, Re 3. I>r. Butler, aud
several other low church clergymen. R-v. Dr. Tyng
has not yet signud the memorial, bu. I am assuied
he bos promi'-cd to do eo.
It must not De supposed, however, that there is
to De no opposition to this btep The Diocesan
Convention, which meets iu this city on the 23d
inst., will have a number of delegates determined
to resist the restoration iu any event. The senti
ments ot this party were expressed by the Protes
tant ChurchuiHU, the other day, when it said : “If
the House of Bishops is to be approached with a
movement ou tbe part of Bishop Onderdonk, ought
it not to be done by the clergy acd laity, not as
individuals, but as delegates in Couventi n?” The
same paper likewise txpresses the opition that
“the reeumption of Episcopal function* by Bishop
Ondeidonk would be, in tbe judgment of very
many, extremely hazardous to the well being and
unity of the Church and Diocese.”
From all I I can learn, however, it is pretty cer
tain that they who hold these views are m a minor
ity. The Bishop will be restored.
A Sadder and a Wiser Democrat. —The edi
tor of the Clarksville (Texas) Standard, in com
menting on the receut defeat of the regular De
mocracy in that State, remarks as follows :
The Late Election. —As to the generai complexion
of the rctuii.s, it is sufficient to say that there is a
gain for the Houston ticket iu nearly every couDty
in the S’ ate. Or defeat has not been brought
about by any local defection or change of Certain
classes ot our population. Ihe Germane have ad
hered to the Democracy. It is a wide spread
change. Wo do not know of one county in which
we have not lost votes. This, in our opinion, is
attributable to slave-trade and disunion issues,
pushed upon the Democracy aud not repelled with
sufii ient explicitness by our candidates. For one,
the editor of this paper will never again take part
in any canvass iu behalf of any candidates who are
not iuiiy open and explicit upon these issues, and
upon all other issues upou which their opinions are
demanded.
The National Democracy in this State have had
to carry a weight which does not belong of right
upou their shoulders ; and we, speaking lor ourself
a oue, having no affinity w hatever with ultiai ts of
any hue, will not at any time hereafter work in any
cause ass cted by their association We have be
lieved Gov. Runnels free from the disuuion tenden
cies alleged, and have therefore supported him ;
but the next man we support wi 1 have to say very
explicitly whether he is a die unionist per sc, or
whether he is iu favor of any course of policy pal
pably tending to disunion.
The Mad Stone —We have heard of the “mad
stone” ever s nee we were a child. At first we had
unwavering laith iu its perfect control over the
deadly virus of mad dogs, and with one in our
pocket, wou;d have braved a yard lull of Hydro
phobia. When we grew to more mature age, we
lost all confidence, and be’ieved that such a thing as
the “mad stone” U'rver exi ted, and if it did that it
was a grand humbug. But a few days ago our
friend Dr. K. H. Ayres, of this county, brought o e
into our office, that he has had iu use for many
years, and performing the most wonderful cures—
never failing in a single instance to extract poißon
and restore the patient from the biie ot not only tbe
mad dog, but from that of every poiuonop3 reptile
that may sink its deadly fangs into human fieri*. —
Jackson ( Tenn) Whig.
Dr. AyREB furnishes the Whig with an account
of this singular stone. We give au extract from his
communication:
Does the Mad stone afford a remedy for the bite
of snakes ? and what is the Mad stone ? It is a fine
and porous stone, capable of absorbing water ami
other fluids, as sponge does, gnd is probably or
coral formation, and found in some of the South
Pacific isles. The common notion that it has been
found in the stomach of the deer is too absurd to
need contradiction.
When used it is dipped in water quite warm and
applied to the wound, when the patient feels the
sei.sation of drawing ; and it is said that *mal! ones
will stick till full o; poison and then drop off, and
after being dipped in warm water and re-applied,
will stick lill all the poison is extracted. Mine ia
too large to stick in that way, being over two inches
square, containing about seven Bolid inches. Yet
tuose to whom I have applied it asserted that they
felt it draw.
Well, does it cure? This stone was used in Buck
ingham county, Va., from about 1815 to 1832, and
in the West since, in my own neighborhood’, and
has never failed to cure in any case, although iu
several instances, hours, and ia oue i6ven\i flays
elapsed before it was applied. In a case bitten by
r ootton- rouLh tnuke last week, in the vicinity of
Mitilin the remedies prescribed by the family phy
sician were used until the leg aud thigh were badly
swollen, (bit ou the ankle,) and tbe body had com
menced swelling.; slept none through the night, and
had no ea:e till I applied the Mad-stone which gave
relief immediately, and she fell asleep in twenty
minutes. Seventeen hours bad elapsed before it
was upi lied. It arrerie the swelling and pa;u in
case ot the sting of insects in a few momenta, as I
will ptoye at any time, 011 my own person, or any
one e:*B.
American Marriages in Paris —ln Paris, ca
the 9th ult, Miss Mary A Mason, daughter of Hon.
John Y. Mason, U. S. Minister, was married to Mr.
Archer Anderson, son of Mr. Jos. R. Anderson, of
Richmond Among those present were the wives
of Gen. Winfield Scott and Uommodore Stew rt,
Hon J. Eustia, of La., and his bride, Lieut. Pegram,
of Va., and Dr. Spencer, U. S. Consul. A Paris
letter adds:
The bridesmaid was Mies Sarah Mason, a ristey
of the bride, the groomsman was Mr. Powhatan
Clark, of Virginia. The toilettes of all the ladies
who assisted were remarkab'y tasteful end beauti
ful; such dresses as are only to be seen at a wed
ding in Paris, the centre of all that is rdfinea, chaste
aud elegant in woman's attire. I regret, exoeed
ingly, that I have not the aid of a lady’s pen, to
describe to your lair readers some of these toilettes.
I should, doubtless, make numberless mis ahes,
were I to attempt so difficult a task, unaided, and
couseauently content myself with mentioning that
the lovely bride heraelf wore a white muriin dress,
with seven flouuces edged with Valenciennes lace,
each floUHce trimmed with an enire-deux and edge
Valenciennes. Her veil was wnite tulle, failing to
the feet, a material which has tak&n the place of
lace, on these Hor need was encircled
by a wreath of’ orange blossoms, and she wore, at
the ceinture, a boquet of the same flowers, which
is the mode at Paris morning weddnga, as contra
distinguished from flowers worn on the bosom,
when the ceremony occurs in tbe evening. The
entire costume was simple, aud elegant.—
The Misses Mason were also dressed in white, as
indeed were nearly all the ladies present. Imme
diately alter the ceremony, the newly wedded pair
left Paris, on a bridal trip to Switzerland.
On the same day, aud within a few minutes of
the same hour a3 the above, another American lady
assumed the irrevocable vows at the chur. ii 01 8;..
Roch. Miss Anpie Flepbunnjj of South Carolina,
was teamed to Mr. Bounin, son ot
Chevalier Bounin, Vicj-Conaul of Portugal, at Nice,
Sardinia. I was not present at this ceremony, b~:
learn that it was conducted according to the Roman
Catholic form. Two American marriage* on tie
•same day, is something, I believe, quite unprece
dented iu Paris.
A Picture op Mk, Buchanan.—The Washing
ton States in one of the most ably edited Demo
cratic papers in the country, makes the following
indictment againet James Buchanan, whose ability
patriotism, the Democratic Convention which lately
sat at Miiiedgevilie endorsed so heartily •
“He found a redundant tpea-ury—ns squandered
the sniplus, .you is fiow clamorous for an increase
of taxation to supply an unaccountable deficiency.
The necessities ot the Government demand econo
my of expenditure ; the estimates are hard upon a
hundred miliion The people ware induced to
anticipate a return to me simplicity and purity of
early days ; never did corruption such rank
luxuriance of growth m every department of the
public service. They e-re promised reform—they
have an aggravation ot abuse. They expected
retrenchment—they are insulted by proposals for
the most absurd and mischievous appropriations.
Millions have been expended for the support o!
Mormonism and the abomination flourishes with
undiminished vigoi and a more audacious ambition.
Much profession of fidelity .t- State rights was
indulged by the Administration, and its pledges
are redeemed by protective tariffs and Pacific rail

renunciation of the right of search by Great

Tbe St. Lolis Breach or Promise Case
The case of hiliie Carstang against Henry Shaw,
whereof our readers will remember a verdict of
|IOO,OOO was rendered by a St. Louis jury, and a
new trial granted, and wbereof a commission bas
been in session in Ysw York, for the past four
weeks to take testimony regarding the character
in Brooklyn of the fair plaintiff —was yesterday
cloeed. The testimony taken iB voluminous—in
volving near a thousand pages. Most of the heads
of our Brooklyn “ F- Y- Bs.” have been upon the
stand, testifying as to their early history and flirta
tions generally, down in “ the Waliabout ’ and
elsewhere. We congratulate them on their re
lease from farther suspense, and hope it may prove
a future warning to their sons. It is but just how
ever, to the fair petitioner, to state that her charac
ter has stood tbe searching test with commendable
I results, and that her proepect bids fair for another
; hundred thousand dollar verdict.— Brook. Eagle ,

The War Feeling in France against Eng
i gland.— The Uaivers, of Paris, has in the past few
weeks published articles of more than usual ani
mosity towards England. In one of them it says :
“All that we say is. that if England oontinues to
condact herself as she has done with respect to
France, she will end by rendering war inevitable.
Between honor or war France would not hesitate,
and she knows that solaiera would issne from tbe
