Lady Flora Horning*.—Amid the hollow
pomp and pageantry which signalized the fu
neral embarkation of the remains of this dis- :
tmguished and innocent Indy may be seen an i
epitome of that miserable spirit which perse
cutes to the utmost the blameless living, to •.
compensate it by shallow homage to the un
reiiiriung. unresisting Dead. It is a spirit
which, w hile it would torture a heart to mad
ness while as yet it pretends ’
tn tel lings no
ger
When the wearisome head is at rest,
Wneu its thinking and aching are o’er;
And the quiei, imn ovrable breast, a
Is heaved by alHiction no more;
—a spirit in short which might chaffer with the
undertaker, or estimate per cents w ith nival or
ministerial chalk on the black drapery of the 1
grave. Such a spirit was exhibited ill life and ;
in death, toward the lamented Lady Flora j
Hastings. The only eril of her life appears to |
have been her independent feelings, her desire
for reti. m nt and doure tic tranquility—ex
cept when her duties to the Queen demanded |
her puoiie attendance, —and the unsullied him-1
or ol her name. Hut it was the spirit of a few
of the law miAf underlings of the court, to de- ‘
preciate her, that themselves might rise; and i
ns it is a well known lucl that among men of |
scheme, fearful of being circumvented by each ;
other, the greatest scoundrel becomes the grea- j
ter pet. and those w ho have inflicted the most :
wanton and unprincipled injury, succeed to
highest favor, so the same principle is opera
tive, in court as in cottage. So it was with :
Lady Flora Hastings. They who warred j
against her living,—who deprived her of com
forts; who thwarted those who defended her. j
and strained every nerve to accomplish her
wishes for reparation ere she died, —now pour
out unmeaning regrets and perhapsa few croc
odile waters upon her grave. Happy isshe, to
be realised from persecutors on earth, and hap
pier isnot being cognizant of the thrice-trench- -
erous mummery which bore her to the tomb, j
Hut the time of avenging her will yet come ;I
and they who, not content with torturing her
before her death, seek afterward to bring dis
credit upon those who while she lived were i
nisst dear to her, will find in the gnawings of J
their own conscience, and in the rebuking ver-,
diet of the world, the full weight of the temp
est of indignation and ignominy which sweeps,
blasting and lightning-winged, from the cloudy ;
bosom of public scorn.
Itis perhaps something 100 soon to estimate
the course which the late oppressors and deta
iners of Lady Flora will pursue towards those
who sustained her under her trials and during
her fatal sickness, the result of those trials; but
it will probably be one that will vent ilself up
on the endeavor to destroy their worldly pros
pects and bring a forced and calumnious dis
credit upon their fame. The very injustice of
Hiat course, —for those who injure, never for- j
give the injured—will give them a taste for itj
which will never oe relinquished, mini enus- :
tened into silence by ihe omnipotent scourge :
of public opinion.
Alariit in Vets York.—We are sorry to find
from the late papers, that the tranquility of the
good people of the great city has suffered a seri
ous interruption from rebeot transact ions. No
sooner had the panic prodifeed by the arrival
of the Great Western began to subside, than
another cause of terror was discovered. The
subject is of such a nature, that if it were pos- j
sible to avoid naming U by the use of any in- j
direct hint or any circumlocution, we would j
gladly do it—but this is quite out of the ques
tion. We are compelled by that necessity, j
which ancient philosophers tell us hath no law, |
to come out in plain English, and say that;
those detestable animals, named in the verna
cular tongue bed-bug *, have assailed Ihe New
Yorkers with a rage quite tin xumpled in the
annals of the city. There i, i-.o much spirit I
in the community to lie still, ..fid be backbit
ten, without an effort to repel the invaders.!
The learned in the natural sciences have come
out in the papers in a way. which will put the j
world in fu.l possession of all the habits of these s
fell invaders, who “murder sleep.” One gen
tleman gives us the very cheering intelligence,
that the increase of the species, especially dur
ing dog-days, is almost incredible, and that
where a pair have taken up their residence,
they will be soon sur.ound.-d with a family
of about five thousand. Another gentleman
advises that nitric acid should be showered
upon thin by the quart, maintaining at the |
same time that these pests have the same ab
horrence for said, that a genuine loafer has to
pure water. In short, all the poisonous drugs
so and by the apothecaries are pul in requisition,
but with what success, yet remains to be seen.
We are half inclined to believe after all, that
this state of things is not entirely new, in the ,
city. Having had the ill luck to sleep there i
several limes in formei years, during the hot j
weather, we can testify that even then, these ,
enemies of human repose were in the habit.of j
charging in battalions. We believe, however,
that is in the case of some fevers illicit occa
sionally prevail, the pub'ic authorities, at that
period, deemed it important tostifle the voice of
rumor lest the business of the city might be in
jured, if all the facts were fully known. Os
late however, we presume, that some oi “the
fathers of the city,” Aldermen, Justices Sir.
have been bitten in such a way, that silence
is no longer a virtue. As these creatures are
altogether carniverous in their habits, it is easy
to conceive, that they would make sad work
on a well-fed alderman, while he lies snoring
in the indolent stage of apoplexy, produced by
a corporation dinner of lurtie-soup, roast beef
and champaign. The mysterious disappear
ance of several Broadway dandies has given
rise to a dark suspicion, that they have been
dragged from their beds meek.and heels’by
the invaders, and slily butchered in some large
rat hole. This suspicion seems to be counte
nanced by the fact, that the said dandies, in
consequence of feeding too freely on sugar
plums and Ice-cream, and loosing sleep by at
tending the theatre every night, were such
punny dwarfs as to be no match for a bed bug
in a fair stand-up-Jiglit. There is one remedy,
for the mischief in question, which was always
found effectual during the good old Dutch dyn
asty of Walter the Doubter and William the
Testy, which we would recommend to the
New Yorkers—we aiindoto cleanliness, white
washing and copious ablutions of hot and cold
w-ter. .

REDUCTION.
The great objection to the proceedings of the
| Convention, is it* party character. In any a
j mendment, or alteration of the organic or fun
damental laws, the passions which influence
contending parties should bo suffered to sleep,
j If permitted to opperate, they cannot fail to
influence the deliberations, and stamp tbe pro-
I reeding* with the impress of the predominant
faction. Ilml attention been paid to this, the
k proceedings of the Convention would have
| met with general approbation. But unfortu*
: nately, in the arrangement, or classification of
the counties the party feelings of the day were
; permitted to have sway, nud instead of union
| and harmony, like nil otherpartizan acts, have
given rise to much dissatisfaction. This is
more to be regretted, as ihe amendment itself,
j w as called for by the people, acquiessed in by
| the too great parties, and if the public good and
I ilie claims of posterity had been consulted in
place of their own political aggrandisement, it
would have been secured and responded to by
the great mass of the people of Georgia. But
the colouring it has imbibed from parly, hns
enlisted the prejudice of many, who otherwise
would have been warm in its support—and
even the small Counties, who loa man, should
be united in favor of notification, such is the
trammels of party, that some are found not on
ly disposed to take nNeutral stand, but to wage
fierce wur against it. But have they reflected n
the consequences of their opposition ? Have
they considered what might be the situa-
tion of the Eastern Disirict l What it
may be asked, would have been the condition
I of the small Counties, if the proposition of Mr.
Jones of Muscogee had been adopted? Stript
j of their weight and influence, in a hopeless mi
nority, without any ri hts secured, hut such as
i in charity might be dealt out by an interested
majority—ever subject to the will mid caprice
of that majority—they would resemble*lhe
1 state and condition of the Israelites in ihe land
of Egypt—hew ers of wood and draw ers of w a
| ter, to their unfeeling masters.
Again, some of the small Counties are oppo
i sed in consequence of being linked or cornier
I icd with counties more populous—they dread
! the loss of power. They take it for granted that
; ihe large counties, will uniformly select and
send the Senator. But in ilinsthinking, do they
not do injustice totlmmselvcs? Under the pre
| sent system, does the most populous district,
! always send the Senator ? Is he not frequent
ly chosen from that section most thinly popw
; lated ? Every County in the Slate will afford
illustration ol this, and the County of Mcln
i tosh bears testimony, that for many years he
Senator has been taken from Broro’s neck the
weakest part in point of population in the
County—and in what respect docs the prnpo
, sed arrangement of Counties differ from Ihe
! present? Will not the people of ihe associated
• Counties be united as one in regard to the Sen
ator? Will not county lines be soon obliterated?
i and will not the Senator feel the same interest
in sustaining the rights of the one County as
the other.
Hois the representative of both, and their
interest being the same, he would be unjust to
his own fame, if lie allows himself lo make any
distinction under the present state of high par
ity excitement, it must be granted that advan
| tage will be taken by the party of predomi-
I nant counties to control the appointment of
i Senators, and does not the same practice now
prevail? But how long will this state of things
continue? New parlies are constantly forming,
and the party predominant to day, mayjje in*
minority to-morrow. So that in every aspect
of the question, it is in favor of Ratification. By
iialificptioii you reduce the legislature—lessen
the expenses of the government nearly one
half, and in all probability improve legislation.
By ratification, you establish firmly the Fede
ral Basis, secure the small counties their influ
i ence in the councils of the State, and prevent
j that unequal distribution of political power,
which would give to the majority the power
of determining on the rights of the minority.

Mk. Editor:
lam happy to learn that our esteemed fel
| low-citizen Charles O’Neal has consented lo
j be a candidate for a seat in the nexf Legisla
ture. Although politically opposed to him, I
shall support him from considerations of a
higher chancier than a mere difference of
opinion on abstract questions. He is not only
qualified to represent the interests of the coun
ty generally, but will be, divested of those
selfish feelings whicli often actuate men in
j power, to abuse the confidence of those who
! elected them. In addition to this, he is the
son of a gallant soldier of the Revolution, who
bled in defence of American Liberty. On one
occasiotf the dwelling of Col. O’Neal was sur
! rpunded by a party of British soldiers who
j rushed upon him before he was aware of their
j approach, but fortunately he sprang through
! a window and escaped, although several guns
’ were fired at him, within a few feet of hi*
head. A few days, however, after this mira
culous escape, he amply revenged himg.-lfup
on bis foes, by slaying with his own hand
several of the party that had assaiied him.
Col. O’Neal served the people of M’lntosh in
various offices, and in every instance reflected
honor on the post which he filled. It will be but
anact'of justice to support his son. He will make
an active member and will do all in his power
to subserve the great interest of the county.
Citizens of M’Jntosh ! can yon vote against a
man, in whose veins courses the blood of a tried
patriot? N° ! A generous people will ever
reward a merilorious son, for the services of
his deceased father.

Mr. Editor:
I was under the impression that It law was
passed by the last legislature, to eonsolidate
the Academy and Door School Fund of the
! State, for the benefit of those who cannot nf- !
ford to pay for the education of their children.
As ibis is the most important net that was pass
ed, I beg that you will do us the favor to give j
it one or two iitsersions in your valuable pa
per. Many of the people in the county as
well ns myself, who have not seen it, will
doubtless be gratified by a perusal of Ihe same.
I hate understood that it also provides for the.
payment of teachers of poor schools. If this ,
is so, it will certainly be an excellent law', for !
our schools In this county have always been
broken up fur the want of money to pay the
instructors. Inquirer.

except ihe first being then represented by
Whigs. In the last Congress but one, vis., the

THE CAUSE or BILIOUS COMPLAINT’S
AND A MODE OF CURE.—A well regu
lated and proportionate quantity of bile upon the
stoiriueh is always requisite for the promotion of
sound heultii—it stimulates digestion, and keeps the
intestinal canal free from all obstructions. Oil the
interior surface of the liver is a peculiar Madder, in
which the t/ffe is first preserved, being formed by the
liver from the blood. Thenee it passes into the stom-*
ach and intestines, and rcgulutes the indigestion.
Thus we see when there is a deficiency of bile, the
body is constantly costive. Ori the other hand, an
overabundance of bile, causes frequent nausea in Ihe
stomach ; and often promotes very severe attacks of
disease, which sometimes end in death.
Fevers always proccde by symtoms of a disor
dered stomueh ; ns are also scrofulous disord:rs,
j and all sympathetieal functional, organic or febrile
diseases. From the same cause, the natural and
healthy action of the lieurt, and the whole vasoular
system is impared and reduced below its natural stan
dard ; as exhibited in palpitations, languid pulse,
| torpors of the limbs, syncope, and even death itself,
1 in consequence of an overabundance of a peculiar of
fensive. substance to the digestive organs.
The approach of bilious discuses is at all times
attended by decided symptoms of aq existing disea
-1 sod state ofthe stomach nndbowels ; i. c. with those
signs which are known lo point out their contents
to be of a morbid irritating nature; but whenever
the alimentary Canal happens to be loaded with irri
laiing matter, some derangement of the healthy ope
ration, either of the generafsystem, or . f some partic
ular organ of the body is the certain result: and
when this state happens to he united with any other
symptoms of disease its effects are always thereby
much aggravated. The progress oforganic obstruc
tion is often so rapid as scarely to admit of time for
the application of such aid as is to be offered by art,
yet, in general, the premonitory symptoms of gastric
load are perceptible for a day or two previous lo tbe
fiverikhparoxism, aperiod, whenthemost eific cious
assistance may be given, by unloading the stomach
and alimentary canal of its irritating contents, and
thus reducing the svserptibility of disease.
MOFFAT’S LIFE MEDICINE’S, should always
be taken in tbe early stages of billions complaints;
and if persevered in strictly according to the direc
tions, will positively effect a cure.
The tfiioeral medicines often prescribe?! in thesedis
eases, tjlthough tb*y may effect a temporary cure, nt
the same time create an unhealthy stale of the blood,
n nd consequently -tend to promote a return ofthe very
disease which they ryprnplo/ed to cure. It is then
by the use of purgatives, exclusively farmed of vege
table compounds, which, possessing within them
selves no deleterious'ageneies, which decomposition,
combination, or alteration can itevdnpe or briug into
action; and th :ivfnre capable of producing no effect,
save that which is desired—that a safe remtdy is
found.
The LIFE PILLS and PHENHt WITTERS
‘ have proved to be the most happy in their effe. ! ‘ in
cases of bilious diseases, of any purely vegetable
preparation ever offered lo the pui*. JftLe sfornaoh
is foul, they cleanse it by exciting it to throw of its
contents; if not, they pass to tbe duodenum without
exciting vomiting; or nausea in the stowwch; stimulat
ing the neighboring vicera, as the liver and pancras,
so as to produce a more copious flow oftheir secretions
into the intestines; stimulating the exhalent capillar
ies, terminating in the inner coat, which an increased
flow ofthe useless particles ofthe body, foreign mat,

Fever ami Ag;uc Positively
Cured.
anti Ague is a most obstinate disease,
-and in warm and humid climates, frequently re
sists every ordiniary mode of cure, so as to become
very distressing to tho patient; and by the extreme
debility which the disease induces, itolten gives rise
to other chronic complaints. Marsh miasmata, or
tin: effiuvia urising from stagnant water, is llie most
frequent of this disease; arid one of
its great peculiarities is its susceptibility of a renew
al from very slight causes, such • from the preva
lence of an easterly wind—even without the repeti
tion of the original exciting cause. In this, Fever
and Ague differs from most oilier fevers; ns it is WAH
known, that after an ordinary fever has once occur
red and been removed, the person affected is
liable to a fresh attack as one who was not so nffwt
ed. These circumstances render it ext
to effect u permanent cure of Fever and A
to rclieee the patient for the time being is a very easy
tusk.
MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX
BII’TERS have been thoroughly tested, and
proved to be a POSITIVE AND RADICAL Cure
of Fever mid Ague. Hundreds of his fellow-citi
zens in the West, have voluntarily come forward lo
assure Mr. MOFFA T that the LIFE MEDICINS
are the only medicines that will THORUGHLY ef
fect a removal of this rno3t tedious and disagreeable
disease.
Others who have emigrated to that rich and prom
ising portion ofour country—men who went out full
of hope, mid confident of winning a competence from
the luxuriunce of the soil; or who carried to tile out
posts of our settlements the mercantile or incchaniclc
experience, won in the crowded cities and towns of
the alder states, have either returned with shattered
constitutions and depressed spirits, or they remain
in their m-w’ homes, dragging out a weary life ; at
last to sink under some disease to which they nre
predisposed by that terror of the West, the FEVER
AND AGUE. Their hopes are blasted—their busi
ness energies destroyed—their El Dorado becomes a
desert, and the word of promise, made to the ear, is
broken lo the hope,
To these Individuals, Mr. Moffat would say—
“ Try llie LIFE MEDICINES, and youwi I ye 1 nrl
ticipatc your most sanguine expectations, lor tucy
wit* certainly restore you lo health.”
FEVER AND AGUE is a complaint which re
quires to be met at its first approach, and cnmhuit’ and
at every stage. Seldom fatal of itself, it reduces the
strength, and imparcs the functions ot the organs, so
that upon the manif station of disease Nature is un
able, unasstslcd, to resist the inroadc. The Lite
Medicines, when luken strictly according to direc
tions will cure it, and give to the weak und tremb
ling victim ofdisense, new health, life, and strength.
For full particulars of the mode of treatment, the
■ render is referred to the Good Samaritan, a copy of
which accompanies the medicine. A copy may be
obtained ofthe different agents who have the medi
cine for sale.

DR. PHELPS’ COMPOUND
TOMATO PILLS.
HAVING acquired an envied celebrity 03 an An
ti Dyspeptic and Ami-Billions remedy, and this
reputation being fully sustained’ by the high charac
ter of it3 testimonials, and the constantly increasing
demand for the medicine, it is only necessary for the
proprietor lo continue the caul ion to the public against
mistaking other preparations which are introduced
us Tomato Medicines, for the true TwßOaki Pills -
As ungencrousand mvideousallusionstothismeff
ieino have been published by the proprietor of a very
different pripxraticn, called Mil s’ Extract of Toma
to,’ evidently •intended to impair the confidence so
long reposed in Phelps’ Tomato Pills, it is proper
for the proprietor to request the public to investigate
tbe source of these publications before they arc indu
ced to credit their troth and honesty,
An inquiry, for this purpose, u ade at Brunswick,
Ohio,where the proprietor of‘Miles’ Extract’ resided
for a long time and commenced his ‘pill career,’ will
be sufficient to render harmless these aspersive insin
uations. Having no desire to injure ‘Milea’ Extract
1 would suggest no further inquiry, and am satisfied
to risk the Compound Tomato Pills upon their mer
its in competition to any preparation purporting to
be Tomato. While the effort lo lAcird other iirepa
rations to the true Tomato Pills are continued, per
sons wishing the genuine medicine should lie partic
ular to notice that they bear the signature of the pro
prietor, G. R. PHELPS, M. D. but notan engruv
