Ifandulph County.
The Democracy, we understand, are in a
beautiful muss in Kaodolph county, and the
harder they try to rxtrii ale themselves the
Jespkr they get their feet in iu. They firot
nominatsd Mr. Brooks for the Senate, and
Mcsaro. Coleman and Taylor for the House,
and these gantlenien accepted. But at a
■ ub«Mjntnt meeting thpy requested three
nopinres to come down again, and Messrs,
Broriks and Coleman obeyed the eaminoor,
hut Mr. Taylux refused and bolds on to the
ktetioo '-assigned -him. In kite meantime
there is an. Ikdopoudent candidate up for
ihe Senate, and he deelkrCs that lie will run
throa^li. Thi ptrty aft in a strait, and no
Way of delitetum-e appear# to havo barn
yet discovered. our liiende down tlierp

(ass is not forgotten in the esciiement of
this Iftiral light of the fuetions. Wo learh
that he will get u gttut.many Democratic
votes ui H^hilulpb, hut the Opposition should

7hw Jrtt-KSan of it*
A correspondent of tha I'imrs, giving
U report of tho discussion between the
^auilidktes for Congress at Hpega Villa,
fiullingly paraded tho statement that Mr.
Douglass wa« not applauded' or cbecrod
throughout his speocli. Now, we learn that
the trull) is riraply this : .Mr. Douglaks
spnko first, and at tho outset of hie remsrki
requoritud hia liirnds not to cheer or applaud
him, telling them that they were in
church anj it would b« improper to do to.
Mr. Crawford or hie friends not being.eo
Scrupulous, tbo speech of I lie Administration
candidate was more noisily received. The'
dca that Mr. Crawford could elicit heartfelt
ippluUvc from an saseutbly which listened
indilT. rcntly to Mr. Douglass, ia simply
laughable.
JS. 11.—Wo did not get tho above true
version of the applause at Buena Vista from
Judge Crawford, nor do wo suppose llint
lybgdy elso obtained from him a sim
ilar Statement during his recent visit to
Columbus.
Another Speech by Senator Toombs.
The Augusta Dispatch of Friday evening
contains a synopsis of a speech delivered
by Hon. -Robt. Toombs at Concert Hall,
Augusta, on the previous evening. . We do
not find In It anything novel or striking?
Mr. Toombs cipreeved .the opinion that
Congress had full nnd ample power to'pro
hibit tho Afrienn elavo trade, lie defended
Squatter or Territorial Sovereignty, and of
Douglas him self be said : "Douglas was not
hik choice'for the Presidency, hut ha would
support. him' sooner than any Opposition
mat) in the United Htstcs. Douglas had
bean in orror; but ho is a bold, manly, truth
ful, independent patriot, and Mr. Toombs
enjoined on tbs reporters to pot that down.”
Tho Hon. Senator is rather bitter against
ths Southern Opposition, for a wan who
wns so recently one of their leaders; and
he takes very kindly to "Popular Sovereign
ty” now, considering that ho denounced it,
when promulgated by Utn. Cess in 1848,
as “worse than the ( \Vilmol Proviso.” lie
boasted of hit defrat of the Postoflics hill
st the close of the last session of CongrriH,
when, it will' be remembered, ha killed
it by kpesktiig sgninst time, and the De
inocrscy then charged its loa* upon the
Opposition 1 Tho only part of his sp
In which we can discover any patriotic
Southern #p7ril is his opposition to lb-
Pacific Hail road hill, and even in thin he
manifested tha narrow feeling of s biller
partisan by declaring that though it was
mesaure of the Administration the country
would havo to look to the’ Democracy to
defeat it!
Mr. Toombs seems to be "in” for «
canvass in behalf of J. J. Jones and the
Dsmrcrscy generally, and wo will soon
see whether auch doctrines and personal
preferences as ho announces will help U»®
p« r ‘y-
CP' Two pertiesof Irishmen, Orangrroco
and Catholics, had a Idoody fight about
their religious ditforoncsf, in New York city,
on Tuesday mufoing list. Knives and
other deadly weapms were used with terri
ble efiect. One man was suppoe®*! t a be
mortally wounded, and tnsuy others wore
severely hurt. The policemen arrested ten
of the rioters, hioat of wherfl were wounded.
They refosed to testify against each other,
and it was thought there would he difficulty
in obtaining the e a idenco necessary to
punish them severely.

dent of the Charleston Mercury says : "The

New York Politics.
Tho Ulnck Republican Nlnte CunvsntioTi
met at HyraCuse on the 7th inet., and
ucniineted the fallowing ticket:
Fur Hecretg’ry fit.State, Elios W. Lenvco-
worth, of Ounndngo county ; ComptrulliT,
Kobort Donnisoo. vl Orange cue my; At
torney General, Chnrlue H. Myers, of Hr.
Lawrence county ; State Engineer, Orville
W. Htory, ot Alleghany fuujity.
It is a tact worthy of note, that ftono of
llicsu nominees ever belonged to the Ainor-
'icon organization, but nutl ot them ere old
Democrats. Tho i/ivurcc hstween the Black
Republicans end the Americana appesra to
have boon completed by this Convention,
d there is now hardly a doubt that tho
American Convention will nominate a
straight ticket of ita own, as it did last year.
Not only tho Americans individually, but
American principles also, were giveu up,
and the Foreign Democracy touted by (ho
declaration that tho Republican party con
tends for “liberty of consclenco arid equality
of rlghta to all cituwns”—a principle opposed
by no party, but its enunciation in Uicso
terms being a elate iujitttion of Democratic
ptrvcrbion of American purposes. Indeed,
the argument was advanced iu debate that
attempts to conciliate llie Americans would
bo fruitless, or wuuld drive oil' five Gnman
voters to every American gained by conces
sions to the latter. Nevertheless, it is o
significant fact that tho Convention did not
endorse Howard's *idra of an "irrepressible
conflict'' between freedom and slavery, nor
did it in any way indicate a preference for
Seward for the Presidency. Tho New.York
Herald regard! this omission and neglect
as a'virtual defeat of Howard's plans end
aspirations.
The Democratic party ie *tili far from
harmonious, and it is vsry hsrd to say
whether tho policy of the HarJs or tire Hofts
will prevail in their SUaio Convention. Tire
friends of Mr. Dickinson have made.a liattsr
showing in the ’ election of delegate# than
was expected of Urera. Their policy is to
postpope the election of d'frgutra to the
Charleston Convention, and to chuosa them
next year by dRtrict* * while the friends of
Douglsa and Hsymour prefer their Appoint
ment by the Convention soon to assemble.
Double delegations have been sent ftotn a
number ot country Districts, and New York
city will certainly send two sets—the feud
between tho Muzsri Hall or Herd Democracy
and tha Tammany Hall or Bolt wing being
utterly irreconcilable. The former favor
UtckiueoQ and postponement, tho latter
Douglas and (he selection of delegates to
Charleston bf Too Convention. It is pos
sible that a split may occur in the squabble
about the admission of these c6nilici(ug
delegations. Wo shall soon see. ^

get tho power to either reduce or increase

that authority in thu Legis

present Executive usurped it and essayed
to tell tlio people of Gooff}in what taxes
they shall pay f Will lire Union answer
thi* question and thereby gtvc a plausibility
to its humbug T
But what is th* truth shout this matter of
tho"reuuctiun of toxrH’Lasit in termed. The
law declarcnuhat a specific amount of money
xhall bo raised lorihe expenses ul the govern
ment—say ♦875,000—nnd this is dog* by an
Astftfsmcnt upon the propnrtyol the citlxont

Each citixon gives in tire value of Ids propv

tire Receivers in ihe tittle, tire ComptroUo,

Tht* per cent, must of noMSlity vary oe
cording to llie aggregate vii'un of tire prop

ernor l»As no option in thi# matter, slid iu
agflNcy, beyond a mere making ol tbo cal

must necessarily bo incrsasrel iu order *

Thlj will be readily umibrfitojd hy the

Now, how stuuda tho nmircr'of "redpc

Brown f It appears irom tire tax ’roturtiL
that tho puople havo-tliis your» valued tlreir
properly some mfy mill,out ol dollars high
orriifin they did Taft year; cohsequcmly,
and from no other can so under ifhuvun, it
take* a less per cent, to raiso lire amount
required by tho governniom. This th
whole truth in u nutshell, nnd tho psople
will *oo nt a glaqpe what a disreputable

Euless Gov. Brown tuude nogroco and land

But ngain, thi* whole idea of reduced

Excellent Advice to u Mob.
An old gentleman in Eastern Virginia
writes table sonjiow at Graoubrief Wluto
Sulphur Springe, as fallows:
The fortune hunter, Hjmon, ia too fre
quent a hangsr-dn at watering pbcei to
esc#[* notice. Mark aod- treasure up your
eoatompt for him, ray son. Give him tho
cold shoulder on all oepaaioas. You will
know him by hi* diligent und exclusive
attention* to all. th* young ladies who ar#
reputed great heirease*. He will he s fre
quent visitor at (h# cabin# of large sugar
nnd cotton plantation girls. Young ladja*
who half* large investment* in Hldfp Htock*
ill he lire object of hi# adoration. I would
not have you,-Simon, to ba of that raman-
turn uf mind, as some people profess to
Ire* that should turn from a .lady because
aha had rfreney, provided ail th# qMaflties'of
hood and heart were there which wa should
priza niure highly. Money is vsry useful
in tbo married stato Love id an article
which flourishes remarkably in an auviler-
ou* soil. The ohill winds of poverty ffc- *
quantly wither, and make it so lank and
shrunken that even Cupid would scarcely
know his own victims. No, Himon, l do
not want you to avoid ft lady because ah#
but What I would impress Upon you is, that
you ahoold not aeak her for her wealth
atone. The priceless affection* of th# heart,
which adorn and ennoble humanity, aro npt
to be bartered for gold. The dollar ia not
the yard a»ick, ao to fpoak, of human hap
piness, and ho or she who make# it ao Wilt
bare purchased misery. Money ia perisha-
able, and ends with life—often before—Hut
the qualities of tho 'head aftd heart 'aro
infinite and immortal: they ffcngQ through
out the universe; they live beyond tbo
tomb ; they are tpe undying part* of m»«
■nd womii t and when I sco a rational
being oblivious to tl.eso for gold, I lament
that humanity can so far forget itself* and
•ink so low. You cannot held, then, my
dear Himon, in loo great abporonce the
character of a furluqo-huntur— iho man or
woman wjre would put u rnoQoy value upon
tha heaven-born qualities of uur nature.
That waa a sublime remark mad#' by u
■take-bound martyr to a rich tyrant: -“Hire,
there U one thing which your geld cannot
buy for you—ft good heart; nor o«n all
your treasure equal the worth of a good
conscience.”
