GEORGIA SARSAPARILLA,
PREPARED BT
J. DENNIS, M. D. f AUGUSTA, GA.,
A SUPERIOR article for diseases of the Li
ver and to purify the Blood.
All the complaints for which Sarsaparilla is useful
(and more too) have been mentioned in Northern ad
vertisements. Large quantities of Sarsaparilla for the
past three years have been prepared in this State for
the Northern market, sent on in barrels and then
sweetened with sugar or molasses, and we may well
auppoee considerable of it comes back again, though
in a very diluted state. The only way for people at
the South to get a pure article is to obtain it from
those who prepare it in the South. That prepared by
Dr. D. is from the pure Southern roots end nothing
else.
The Georgia Sarsaparilla alone is better for dis
eases of the Liver, or diseases arising from an impure
state of the Blood, or for Southern diseases generally,
than any of the Northern compounds of the kind,
with all the sugar, molasses or sweetened water, er
any thing else they put into it.
Druggists supplied on the most liberal terms.
Our motto is Union, Home Manufactures and the
Georgia Sarsaparilla. 02-ts

DAILY CHRONICLE & SENTINEL.
Correspondence of the Chronicle 8c Sentinel.
Warrknton, 11th Oct., 1850.
Mr. E®itor:— l have for near a week been
sojourning in this busy little town, the Supe
rior Court for Warren County being in ses
eion. There appears to be more business,
commercially, done here than in any other
i town I hare ever visited of twice its sise.
The stores are crowded all day and until nine
j or ten o’clock at night. There seems to be
i a constant rush among Merchants and their
: customers, and yet tho town presents no ap
| pearance of symmetry or benntv. The houses
are thrown together almost in a heap, scarcely
any public square, and 1 believe but one street
running directly through, with roads coming
in at different points. The people seem al
most as one, every body you meet is social
and friendly, and you feel when in Warren
too like you were in one great family. There
is nothing like aristocracy or ostentation in
any thing you see here. Take it all in all
it presents more of the Republican simplicity
of the American citizen than any other I
have visited.
There has recently been an interesting revi
val of Religion here, and many of the young
people have been received into the Churches.
The Annual Session of the Georgia Asso
ciation convened in the Baptist Church here
to-day, and was organised by electing the Rev.
Vincent Thornton . Moderator, and Wm. P.
Mell, Clerk. An unusual numberof Ministers
I understand, are in attendance, and it is to be
hoped that the good work will still go on until
the citizens of Warrenlon become famous for
Faith and good Works.
The crops in this county are better than
in many of the counties through which I have
recently travelled.
Now Mr. Editor, you m ist aliow£me to say
something politically, for 1 hold it to be the
duty of every good and true citizen, to guard
well the Republican rights and Religious privi
leges off which I have been speaking; which are
guaranteed to us by the Constitution framed
by our Fathers, and which some evil minded
men are now endeavouring to destroy. Yes,
sir, there are questions now agitating the pub
lic mind, and why is it so ? The answer is on
every tongue. For the first time I believe in
the history of Georgia, a Convention, is
called by Executive au hority, not to alter any
of the features of our State Constitution, the
legitimate object of such conventions, but to
adopt as proclaimed by hia Excellency “some
mode of tedress,” and we are gravely told by
the organ of his Excellency that we should
not trammel the delegates to said Convention
by requiring pledges of what they must do
when assembled. But we should pledge our
selves to abide by whatever they may deter
mine. A more slavish requirement was never
exacted by a tyrant, and for a less usurpation
of power some Monarch’s have lost their
heads. When such things occur, is it notgibe
duty of every freeman to speak out in con
demnation of such degrading suggestions ?
Many I rejoice to see are speaking. On
Wednesday last at this place, the Hon. Robert
Toombs addressed the people, and a vast
crowd there was to hear him. The Court
House was too small to hold more than half.
He spoke from the steps to the crowd inside
and out of the house, and as you may well
imagine his speech was powerful in defence
of the Constitution and Union. The limits of
this letter will not allow me to give a detailed
sketch of the positions assumed and maintain
ed by him. 1 think it sufficient to say, that it
was one of Toomb's best.
Yesterday at noon the people were address
ed again by Judge Andrews, of Wilkes, in a
speech which for power and argument I have
never heard surpassed; his reasoning must
have been terrible to evil doers. I wish that I
had space to give his appeal to bis old Demo
cratic brethren, but those who have read his
recent letter to the public on the same subject
can judge of the character of his speech, and
when he, with hh tall form erect, his hands
raised high over his head in ail the fervency of
his soul, proclaimed his undying devotion to the
Union, and his determined hostility to all those
who are now seeking to destroy the glorious
fabric of the Constitution, the applause was
long and loud. His frequent and apt allusions
to the Chivalry were withering beyond des
cription.
Last night at 7 o’clock, I listened to another
most powerful speech from Judge Cone, of
Greensboro, on the same side. Those only of
your readers who have heard him in defence
of the Constitution and Union, can form any
thing like a correct idaa of the power of his
arguments, indeed his oratorical powers are
unsurpassed and his whole soul is enlisted in
the cause. 1 regret that 1 have not space to
give his speech somewhat in detail, for it is
engraven on my memory never to be eradica
ted.
I am justified also io saying that Judge Bax
ter is equally devoted to the Constitution and
Union, but bis Judicial duties will not permit
him to take the stump at present. All things
here are cheering for the cause of Union.

The Resistance Men.—As there has re
cently sprung up a party, calling themselves
by the above title, nod as it appears doubtful,
not only to the world, but to themselves, what
is the measure of their resistance, we propose
to examine their words and actions.
In the first place they roundly deny that they
are disunionists, but say they are not for sub
mission, are for resistance. But the manner
of resistance is the difficulty; some say non
interconrse, some one thing, and some another,
and others don’t know what they wait. Well,
how do they act ? Who do these resistance
men who are opposed to disunion act with ?
Who do they consult with T Who do they
praise? We say, they invite open seceders
and disunionists to their public meetings, cheer
their disunion sentiments, unite with them in
all their public acts, and land them as cham
pions of Southern rights. Why do they as
sociate with disunionists if they are opposed to 1
them ? We do not act with a party to whom
we are opposed in principle.
These resistance men cannot deceive the
people, for it is an old adage, and a true one,
“that persons may be judged by the company
they keep,” and those who associate with dis
unionists should be judged to agree with them.
‘ S Ho that is not for us is against us,” and be
that is not for observing the laws of his coun
try is against it. The immortal Jackson said
in the days of nullification that the only consti
tutional modes of resisting the laws of Congress
was by the Supreme Court and ballot box, that
all other modes were revolutionary. Non-in
tercourse Is unconstitutional and impractica
ble, and no mode and measure of redress in
the constitution can be adopted; the question
1 is, ■imply, will we remain in the Union, or will
we go out of it. Men must take their stand
either for their country or against it; they must
be either patriots or traitors. A patriot is a
Kian true to his government; a traitor is one
who is opposed to it. We are for our coun
try —reader, are you against it 7 —CassmlU

The Weather Crops, &c.—~ We have had
some weeks dry and beautiful weather for
picking cotton. The crop in this section
though perhaps the best in the cotton region,
will not be a full crop. The country contin
ues healthy. Many new settlers are coming
in but there is yet room for thousands of oth
are.—Albany (g« ; Patriot.
correspondent at Piaquemine of
f O , Vv. rUe , ita says that on the night
of the <ih uist., the bank of the river in front
of the lower part of the town caved in and has
already destroyed property to the amount of
$50,000. No houses have, as yet, fallen in,
but for a distance of one hundred yards the
buildings are on the very brink, and openings
are above and behind them. The owners are
moving their goods and pulling down their
houses as fast as they can. I ought not, per
haps, to have made any estimate of the loss,
for it is almost impossible to arrive at a just
one. 1 feel convinced that the destruction
has but commenced.
The Crops.— The Jackson (East Feli
ciana) Mirror of the 3d inst. says:
The late dry weather has caused the cotton
to open rapidly, thus affording a good time for
gathering. We know of no planter who says
he will make a full crop; we hear very many
say that they will be satisfied with Haifa crop.
The cane growers in this neighborhood say that
the dry weather has injured the cane.
Frost. —The Memphis Eagle of the Bth
inst. says: “We had frost again, yesterday
morning. The fifth of October has thrice
within the past ten years brought ns our first
frosts. Some eight or ten years ago our first
frosts—for two successive seasons —occurred
ou the fifth ; we remember no earlier frosts.
The long drought and extreme dryness of ve
getation will prevent, we think, any serious
injury to the cotton plant ; but we shall soon
hear from the interior ; the low and damp cot
ten lands, where vegetation is greener, most
suffer more or lass.
P. S.—We have seen several gentlemen
from the country, who inform us that the frosts
were severe, and have done all the injury that
frosts could de to the cotton —destroying the
small bolls, and injuring more or less those
not matured. The backward cotton in bot
tom lauds still vigorously growing is of course
greatly injured. Had the frosts kept off two
or three weeks longer, at least ten per cent
more would have been made. We doubt now
if but little more than a full half crop will be
realized this season.
