A correspondent (who does not give his
real name, and whose communication is
therefore no' entitled to notice unless it were
something ‘extra”) writes to inform us that
he. saw a boy at church, last Sunday, heat
ing his linger in a very red headed man’s
hair, and tin n laying it down upon tic
bench and beating it out, like a blacksmith
would n piece ot iron ! Our correspondent
mentions the fact to show “the way things
go on about hero since Steam Engines have
been brought into this country !” Our anon
ymous triend is certainly an old fogy of the
worst stripe, a veritable fossil. The great
“sm” he saw the buy commit, is no new
tiling under tbo still. We believe it was Mr.
Wesley, or some oilier divine “gatlu red to
his fathers” before the Age of Steam set in,
who raid that during his whole career as a
prepcher In never laughed in the pulpit but
once, und that was when he saw a hoy do
the same thing in church that our correspon
dent saw lust Sunday. We imagine tner<
wmo some go-ahead “Young Americans"
before steam was harnessed, ns well as since.
Ul course, we wouldn’t assert there were
half, or even one-tenth, as many then as
now, but we think our correspondent entire
ly mistaken in attributing the present multi-
tudinousness of font chiblnn to the introduc
tion of “.Steam Engines.” The fact is at

Stay* “Deliver mu Irom rr.y friends!” a cer
tain corpulent and very eminent divine
might have exclaimed, on lhe occurrence of
the following incident, which is related to us
on reliable authority:
As the Rev. Dr. B entered the crowd
ed cabin ot a Fulton furry boat, he was im
mediately addressed by a gentlemanly-look
ing miiu, but unfortunately under the influ
ence ot liquor, who very ceremoniously in
sisted upon giving him his seat.
"T-l-tuke my seat, D-d-doctor,” stuttered
the man, “fake my seal; I have a great res
pect for you D-d*uoctnr ; you’r n very good
and a, e, very great man.”
But before the polite oiler could be accept
ed an Irish woman slipped into the vacant
place, and the lute occupant turning again
to Dr. B , went on :
“Well, ne

a great respect (or you, Doctor. You’re a
man above the common run; you’ve a good

U(, Doctor. Heard you had a call to Ninth

salary; but you wouldn't &o; no. Doctor,

The Doctor is quite as celebrated lor his
wit as bis eloquence, but this time it failed
him so decidedly that he had not a word to
say in reply.—Ihrper.

COLUMBUS, GEORGIA. TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 21, J856,
Old Lino Whigs —Mr. Fillmore.
That excellent old-lino Whig journal, the
Baltimore Patriot, in noticing Mr. Fill%
M 'lk’s letter of acceptance, addresses the
old-limi \\ bigs with so much point and force
that wc cannot forego tho pleasure of laying
the article before the old-lino Whigs ot Geor
gia entire, and commending it to their care
ful consideration.
Tho Pntrint says:-Tho letter of Mr. Fill-
mot',! is one that will be found worthy alike
ol tho esteem in which he is held by the
Whigs and ol Iho honorable recognition
which tin* Americans have • ni ! i:!.n in
choosing hint as their candidate fv.r -.lv Ihv >-
idniiev. This letter of acceptance js rli n -
ucteri.siic ot Millurd Fillmore. It is frank,
manly and patriotic. It endorses the main
principles ol the American platform, because
they are essentially Whig principle-s. and
therefore eminently national ; but it rulers
more particularly, ns wo expected it would,
to his antecedents, as expressing the policy
by which in tlio event of his oloctioti, he
would still be governed. Il bids the Ameri
can people judge of his future course bv the
record of his past actions. What that comse
was, am! how il extorted praise Irom the
ablest el his political opponents, wrung
from the lips ol Governor Wise n burst of
admiral ion, and u hearty eulogy from the
P< ui . '< • If vi ic ; how Henry Clay fouud
in Miilnrd Fillmore a statesman worthy of
hissuppo t ; and how, from his first assump
tion ot the Presidency lo the close ot his
term ul oilier, lie continued to rise in public
estimation, winning the esteem ol every sec
tion of the Union, ami the sincere respect of
rVen ihos<- whose political principles diiler-
rd Irom his own, are mailers ol history.—
rure, calm, wise ami good, Millard Fillmore
was, emphatically, iho choice of the Whigs
ol Maryland at the Convention ot and
had lie then received the nomination be so
richly deserved, lie would likewise have
been supported by many moderate Demo
crats who admired fiisstraight-forward course
as a Child Magistrate, ami were inspired
thereby mill implicit, confidence in his firm
ness and integrity. We do not say that
America has not otlu r statesmen equally
horn J and governed by equally pnniotie
moth r; Hut we d • assert that she lisa none
worthier ol popular regard ; or w hose whole
political life has been more consistcn:lv in
accord with the great principles embodied
in the Federal CoiiMiiutinu. Wliat Millard
Fillmore was in 18-VJhe still continues to he
in IKiM ; as a man without guile, ns n states
man without reproach. His nomination up
on tlio piullorui ol his antecedents appeals
to the. intelligence M the people, and not to
their less estimable qualities—to their pru
dence and not to their passions -to their
spirit of coiiversdlism ami not to their agra-
rnn tendencies, and to their patriotism as
contradistinguished Irom sectional feeling,
ami the ullr.iisms of cliques and factious.

duty—no specious eloquence could aib ct
tho calmness ol his judgment. Taking
broad views ol things, and fruo to the best
interests of tho Republic, ho embraces every
portion of it within tho scope of nis regard
and Inis won lor himself tlio confidence
which is reposed in him by the simple, manly
course of respecting Iho rights ol all, unmov
ed by the clamor of malcontents, or by tlio
more insidious wiles of professing friends.
Wc believe Millard Fillmore the more
purely national, the more truly conserva
tive, and in every respect tlio salont of tho
two candidates now before tlio people.-—
Whether wo are correct in our belie!, it is for
them to judge.
Wo sne. k—licit understood—ns Whigs,
und to Whigs—to those gullent men with
whom wo have gone so olicn into battle in
limes past; in whoso reverses wo have shar
ed, and in whoso fewer triumphs wo have
rejoiced. Wo sneak of Millard Fillmore as
tlio man whom Henry (Jlay loved, and whom
the Whigs honored. As one who being sud
denly (Milled by n dispensation of Providence
to asi’i'oc the duties of the highest office in
the Republic, comported himself so nobly
and impartially ns to justify tho expecta
tions ol his political friends, and win honest
plaudits even from Ins political opponents.
A man endowed with qualities like these,
has claims upon the true men ol tho Repub
lic superior to thoso ot mere party ufliniiics,
because they are based upon broader
grounds and sustained by broader nets.—
Such a man must be national, inasmuch as
his policy met with the approval not merely
ot ilur people of ibis section or of that, but of
thoughtful men in every portion of the Union.
Such a man, moreover, must bo consort u-
live, because a wise conservatism alone rec
ognizes IliBljuM mean in political men-. ;;i s
which is calculated to preserve harmony
i.i iho Republic and an amicable under
standing with foreign nations.

A Hlngulnr Dentil Htrugglc,
A singulnr circuinstancpwas lately related
to me by one of thu housc-s.irgeous of the
CharUy^f lospilnl ol this city. In one ol Iho
man was dying at 1“ o’clock nt night. At
Ibis hour in tho surgical wards there is no
movement except in cases of necessity, the
lamps Imm dimly, gml the guardians are or
dinarily sleeping in their eqairs. But there
aru always some of tin; patientsmoro or less
wukelul by cause ol their sufferings. The
man who was dying had in the pockot ot
hi pantaloons a tolerably well tilled purse,
11ol ai all ii ruio eircuinstancu in u rails
hospital, Ilowastt misd
palaloous carefully stow
pillow, but his tiuqucul atlcnlioiis to tIi
safely ol his pocket book annivil tho utten-
lion, and the curiosity as well, of the man
who occupied the next bed to him. This
man watched with wakeful eyes for the mo
ment. to seize the dead man's treasure.—
When the miser no longer breathed audibly,
and the other believed him dead, hu stole
quietly out ol hod, and thrustirg his hand
under the pillow, seized the pantaloons.--
But he was mistaken ; there was Mill breath
and life in the miser, and the attempt lo
wrest Irom him his treasure seemed to give
him life and breath that he had not. Ho
seized th'* pantaloons, and n horrible strug
gle took p ace between the dying mail und
tho thief lor iho possession of iho coveted
money. But the miser’s grasp wassoon re
laxed by death. and he fell hack on his bod,
gurgling words from his throat that ought to
have frozen the blood of the blackest pirate
on Garth.
More than one patient wos aroused by this
singular and horriblu scene, and when the
thief shall be sufficiently cured to leave the
hospitals he will be banded over lo justice.

mittee ol llio city council ol New York
have been investigating thu condition ot the
city:
In one building they found7o persons re
siding, .-<11(1 the basement, n damp, filthy
place, occupied by a colored man named
Jackson, ns n dance house. Hu said that
h“ formerly was ■* slave in Nelson county,
Virginia, and that his last master, Thomas
•' 'rkey, s' t him free twenty six years ago,
since which tune he has been a servant live
years in tin* family ol General Harrison.—
He added that he had rather, to-day, lie a
slave on a Southern plantation than a irei* ne
gro at tho North. Some ol tin.'party, oi re
publican proclivity, found it difficult to gul-
lop down this statement *, but the seriousness
with which it w'nd uttered left no doubt ot its
truth. _ _
