Platform of the Countitutionnl Union
Party,
The following is the Platform adopted by the
Constitutional Union Party, in National Conven
tion at Baltimore :
Whereas, Experience has demonstrated that
Platforms adopted by the partisan Conventions of
the country have had the effect to mislead and
deceive the people, and, at the same time, to widen
the political divisions of the country, by the crea
tion and encouragement of geographical and sec
tional parties ; therefore—
Resolved, That it is both the part of patriotism
and of duty to recognise no political principles
other than
The Constitution op the Country ;
The Union of the States ; and
The Enforcement of the Laws;
and that, as representatives of the Constitutional
Union men of the country, the National Conreu
tion assembled, we here pledge ourselves to main
tain, protect and defend, separately and unitedly,
those great principles of public liberty and nation
al safety, a-rainat all enemies, at home and abroad,
believing that thereby peace may once more be
restored to the country, the just rights o\ the
people, and of the States re-established, aud the
Government again placed in that condition of ju*-
fraternity and equality, which, under the
example and constitution of our fathers, has
3oleniDly bound every citizen of the United States
to maintain “ a more perfect union, establish
justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for
the common defence, promote the ger sral welfare,
and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves
and our posterity.”
A Word with YOU.
Now the first thing this morning, after saying
your prayers, is to read this paper, and then go
and vote. Don’t let any thing stop you—let uo
consideration under heaven prevent you from de
positing your ballot. The argument is exhausted
—now eomes the balloting. Try the ballot-box
first, as a peaceful remedy for the ills we labor
under, aud remember that unless you use your
ballot aright, the rash leaders of the Breckinridge
party, endorsed by a majority vote for their can
didate, will immediately precipitate you into rev
olution. Then use this great remedy of the bal
lot aright, so that you may escape the final remedy
of revolution and civil war. The ballot, if prop
erly used now, will prove mightier than the sword,
but unless that is used properly the probabilities
are that the sword shall be the next resort, and
1 hat within a very few weeks. Think of these
things, and go to the polls imbued thoroughly
with the importance of the conflict—but aboye all
things be sure to go and vote, and vote the Union
Ticket. Here it is :
William Law,
B. H. Hill,
S. B. Spencer,
Marcellus Douglas,
L. T. Doyal,
W. F. Wright,
J. R. Parrot,
11. P. Bell,
Ira E. Peupree,
LaFayette Lamar.
Scan the ballots closely, and be sure that all
these names are on it.
Let us urge you not, for any cause less than ab
solute necessity, neglect your important trust. If
you have a note to pay to-day, vote first, and then
you will go with a light heart to pay the note. If
you have a businces engagement of any sort,
don’t forget to vote first, if you have a bill to
make out and send off, vote first. If you have an
account of sales to render, vote first. If you want
to make a purchase, or see after any little matters,
vote first, before you forget it. Don’t wait till af
ter dinner, for the night then cometh quickly, and
you might inadvertently get head over ears into
some sort of business, and thus forget to vote.
And when you go to the polls be sure to have a
Bell ticket—the Uniou ticket, as given above. |
And take a handfull along with you, that uo mat
ter how busy you may be, you may have time to
scatter them among your neighbors and friends.
It will be good seed—look to it that it be sown in
good ground, and that it bring forth good fruit,
and that immediately. Recollect, that this is not
a contest between Bell and Breckinridge, or be
tween Bell and Douglas, or between Douglas
and Breckinridge. It is solely a contest between
Bell and Lincoln. One or the other must be elect
ed. Which do you prefer ?
The Savannah Republican makes a suggestion,
to which we would call the attention of managers
of the election, at the various precincts. It is
that the managers run over the tickets in the
first count, simply calling Bell, Breckinridge or
Douglas, as the case may be, without calling the
names of all the electors. By this means we shall
get the result in a very short time —say an hour—
aud afterwards the managers can call the whole
of the names at their leisure. This will put but
small additional labor on them, aud it will greatly
facilitate the transmission of the news.
Reflect upon how much depends in the aggre
gate upon the personal exertions of each indi
vidual. In the State of Georgia there are 182
counties, and in each county from four to eight
precincts, or more. There are perhaps 800 pre
cincts in the State, and five additional votes for
Bell at each one of them will give a grand aggre
gate of four thousand. Think of this, and get
every vote you possibly can. Four thousand
votes, or even much less, may turn the scale in
favor of Bell, and may save the Union. Then
never think of resting until you have at least at
tempted to get Bell one vote beside your own.
The Administration’s Meanness.— On the 31st
of August, a faithful old custom-house officer of
Boston, an officer and soldier in the war of 1812,
was for party purposes assessed thirty dollars
upon his little salary. Having a large family de
pendent upon him, and knowing that he would
lose his place if he refused to pay the thirty dol
lars, he paid it promptly. The next day he re
ceived his dismissal. The administration, having
got all it could out of him, cut him adrift in favor
a ccftisor out of whom it could get as much
with such a game as .that,
Xnble-rigging looks respectable.—
Journal.
All Right, Go Ahead!
W r e have just seen a circular letter from a New
York merchant, sent to a merchant in Augusta,
dated Nov. Ist, in which it is stated that a com
mittee of merchants had just held a meeting to
compare notes, and to figure up the result of this
day’s election: And the conclusion is that Penn
sylvania will go against Lincoln by 10,000, that
New York is certain for the fusion ticket, the city
alone being determined to give that ticket 60,000
majority, and that New Jersey will be anti-Lincoln
by 15,000 majority. This is indeed glorious news,
and we hope it may prove true. And now for
John Bell, with a long pull, a strong pull, and a
pull all together. If Lincoln is beat John Bell is
next President. Then come and help him to-day
Come to the winniag man. Don’t throw away
votes on the other candidates, when they can do
no good.
Don’t forget, when you go to the polls, ftiat the
race is entirely between Bell and Lincoln, and
every vote not cast for John Bell is just thrown
away.
Don’t iorget that the Democrats told you in
1856 to vote for Buchanan and Breckinridge to
save the Union, to protect the South and to quiet
the country. ou took them at their word—now
what do you see ? The South in danger, the Un
ion in peril, the country more frightfully agitated
than ever before, from one extreme to the other.
Come out from among them.
Bemember, as you go to the polls, that the elec
tion of John Bell, alone of all the candidates in
the field, is that which can give peace to the coun
try, restore harmony, secure the South all her
just rights, aud perpetuate the Union of the
States, and the liberties of the people.
Remember that John Bell never was a mem
ber of a Know Nothing Lodge, and that Edward
Everett never was, hut that he was a prominent
candidate for the Vice'Presidency in the Charles
ton Democratic Convention.
Remember that Mr. Breckinridge refuses to
answer the Norfolk questions, and that nearly all
his friends, since the recent elections have shown
his defeat inevitable, have come out openly for
disunion, though they indignantly denied it at
first. And remember too that many of his friends
have declared for Lincoln as their second choice—
thus hoping to elect him for the very purpose of
destroying this government.
Remember that Breckinridge’s friends openly
voted the Republican ticket in Indiana at the late
election, and thereby gave Lincoln the State.
Recollect that Joe Lane is already defeated in
Oregon, his own State ; that Mr. Breckinridge
was overwhelmingly defeated in Kentucky, his
own State, at the August election, and that his
party has not elected one single member of Cou
gressin the late elections, from the whole North.
Don’t forget that the Hon. John C. Breckin
ridge himself said, in his speech before the Ken
tucky Legislature, last December: “ In thepresent
condition of public affairs, I can see no motive to
thrust the Territorial question onthe political are
na that has its origin in a feeling of loyalty
to the Union.”
Recollect that the Breckinridge part}*, following
the advice of Mr. Yancey, broke up the Democratic
party, are now likely to elect Lincoln Ky means
of that very circumstance, and then are pledged
to break up the government in case they succeed
in electing Lincoln.
Remember that if Breckinridge gets a majority
of the popular vote of Georgia, his party, which
has a large majority in the Legislature, will pro
ceed immediately to take Georgia out of the
Union, feeling authorised to this action by your
votes for Mr. Breckinridge, and thus give you
no opportunity to express your wishes on that
question at the polls.
Bemember then, that the only chance you have
now to prevent this Legislature from taking you
out of the Union, is to put Breckinridge in a mi
nority at the ballot box this day.
Don’t forget that the Bell ticket is instructed
to vote for either Bell, Douglas or Breckinridge,
if either, by their vote, can defeat Lincoln, and
that the Breckinridge ticket refuses to make any
such pledge.
Be sure to vote, and get every body else to do
so that you can, and vote the Union ticket
throughout.
A correspondent of the Macon Telegraph, in
Saturday’s paper, says “Henry R. Jackson, one of
the Breckinridge Electors, has said that he would
as soon have Lincoln elected as Douglas, and of
course lie would in no event vote for Douglas to
defeat Lincoln. This position of Mr. Jackson can
be proved if denied .” And the SI aeon Citizen says
Col. Jackson took that position in a speech made
at Macon Thursday night. We have no doubt
that is the feeling of the whole Breckinhidge
electoral ticket in Georgia—if they can not get
Breckinridge, then they want Lincoln elected,
and they will attempt to precipitate us into revo
lution. Let the people beware how they vote
any such ticket, especially as they have an op
portunity to vote the Bell ticket, which is in
structed to vote for Breckinridge in order to de
feat Lincoln, if that can be done.
A Leading Democrat of Louisiana Forsakes
the Disunion Party. —The speech of the Hon.
George S. Lacey, long known as one of the lead
ing Democrats of the State, which we published
yesterday, says the JV. O. Bulletin, must have
been perused with extraordinary emotion, by all
classes of the community. He forsakes his party
as soon as his party forsakes the South, and the
Constitution, and the Union. That is acting liter
ally according to the advice of the great hero of
New Orleans —the lion-hearted Old Hickory. He
told them in words that never can be forgotten—
“ Leave your friends and staud by Jrour country !”
We echo his patriotic words. Democrats, follow
the advice of Gen. Audrew Jackson. “Leave
your friends and stand stand by your country.”
Imitate the example set by one of your leaders,
imitate the Hon. George S. Lacey; declare for
the Union, the Constitution and Liberty, one and
inseparable. Stand by the work of vour fore
fathers. Revere the memory and heed the warn
ing of Jackson. Come, the ranks of the South
and the Union are every (fay swelling with true
men, loyal, faithful and firm. Come with them,
come !
John Bell is the Man. —Does any well inform
ed and unprejudiced man believe that either
Northern or Southern sectionalism would be
countenanced during Bell’s term, should he be
elected V Do such believe that either Douglas or
Breckinridge can be elected by the people ? Is it
not at least probable that Bell can be so elected,
should all conservative men, of all parties, unite
in his support? What, then, is the dictate of
common sense and patriotism ? Clearly, that all
who deprecate the irretrievable ruin of our be
loved country should, with one accord, combine
their efforts in behalf of that ticket, the success of
which would, as it were by magic, dissipate the
clouds that already envelope our commercial in
terests, threatening to undermine the foundation
of our existence and sweep us from the catalogue
of independent nations.
In a word, John Bell is the man for all patriotic
men to vote for in the present crisis. People of
Virginia, rally as one man, on Tuesday next, to
the support of the only safe candidate in the field!
—Richmond Whig.
The Ballot. —The ballot is the sceptre which
the citizen of a free country wields in the*govern
ment of that country. It should represent the
true and unbiassed and intelligent expression of
an opinion formed on all the facts which relate to
the subject-matter to he decided. So loug as it
bears this character, and possesses this meaniug,
there is but little danger of free institutions. If
every vote to be cast on Tuesday next could be
such as above described, all would be well, both
with the citizen and his country. Let it be made
,tso, and let every man who is qualified under the
laws of the land take the earliest occasion on that
day to deposit that ballot, and let it be for the
Constitution, the Union and the laws.— Patriot.
Bell or Lincoln —WnicH will You Have ?
What we foresaw, at tfie beginning of this con
test, at least as soon as the disruption of the demo
cratic party was completed, has now become mani
fest to all impartial spectators, that the struggle
is, to all intents and purposes, between John Bell,
the candidate of the friends of the Constitution,
the Union and the enforcement of the laws, and
Abraham Lincoln, the champion of all the anti
slavery elements of the North including the abo
litionists and the followers of the “irrepressible
conflict.” Men of Tennessee, men of the South,
men of the Union, which will you have? Which
do you prefer, nationality or sectionalism? To
vote for Breckinridge or Douglas, will be to throw
away your strength. Your only choice is be
tween Bell and Lincoln. Can you hesitate ? Can
you parley ? Can you debate Detween the two ?
—Nashville Patriot.
Hon. Herschel Y. Johnson, the Democratic
candidate for the Vice Presidency, in a speech at
Richmond, Va., was very severe and sarcastic
upon the conduct of the Virginia delegation in
the Conventions both at Charleston and Balti
more. One of his home thrusts was that he
thought that “in voting fifty-seven times for Mr.
Hunter as the candidate of the Democracy on thf
Cincinnati platform pure and simple, they signi
fied their acquiescence in the Douglas platform,
and it was bad faith on their part to turn round
and adopt Breckinridge as their nominee.”
EUROPEAN INTELLIGENCE.
BY THE BOHEMIAN.
Farther Point, Nov. I. — The steamship Bohe
mian, from Liverpool at IP. M. on the 16th, via
Londonderry 19th ult., passed here this morning
at 5 o’clock, en route to Quebec.
France. —The Times’ Paris correspondent says
the departure of the Pope’s Nuncio from Paris
was considered the forerunner of the Pope’s quit
ting Rome.
The same authority says, seldom has the spirit
of hostility been so general in the Church of
Prance, and never has it been more boldly dis
played. Pastorals, circulars, allocutions and ser
mons denounce and all but implore divine ven
geance on the invaders of the; Papal States, and
by implication on the Emperor. The whole pre
lacy are aroused from one end of the country to
the other.
The French note to the Federal Council, states
that independent of the insults offered to the
French flag at Sion, a French subject was mal
treated on that occasion. France, therefore,
claims that a searching inquiry be instituted, and
expresses the hope that the guilty parties be
punished, and full satisfaction accorded. The
Federal Council has directed the Government of
the Valais to make the necessary investigation.
The Paris Bourse was firm, steady, ana closed
on the 17th at 69.10.
Italy. —The Paris Patrie says that as soon as
the annexation of Naples and Sicily to Sardinia is
proclaimed, Garibaldi will resign his political au
thority, and assume the title and functions of
Commander-in-chief of the land and sea forces of
Southern Italy. He will exclusively occupy him
self in preparing for war next spring, and will
make an appeal to all Europe for volunteers.
It is confirmed that a French merchantman
laden with stores for Gaeta had been captured by
Garibaldi’s ships, but as the blockade was not re
cognised by France, she would probably be re
stored to avoid unpleasant consequences.
The Turin Gazette says Prussia has simply
made some remarks against the entry of Sardinian
troops into Naples, but Russia onide no communi
cation. It was reported, however* via Berlin, that
the Russian Ambassador at Turin had been re
called, and that the Sardinian Ambassador at St.
Petersburgh had received his passports.
It was stated that 14,000 Piedmontese troops
had already reached Naples by sea. After Victor
Emanuel reviews them, they will march to Caser
ta, to be joined by those entering by the Roman
frontier.
Dispatches from Naples say that a fresh attack
of the Royal troops had been repulsed.
The Times says that Lord John Russell was not
authorized to promise that England will teach the
King of Sardinia political morality, or defend the
treaty of the Holy or any other alliance against
the national interests of the Italian race.
The Times urges upon Victor Emanuel the ne
cessity of speedy action at Naples, as Warsaw
may take advantage of the delay to throw its pro
tection around Francis. It was quite time that
Victor Emanuel had scattered the Bourbon forts
aud driven away its King. The delay will be in
excusable.
The Daily News says the Emperor will not he
so far duped as to join the Warsaw Conference.
The Times does not think that the dead-set of
the French Episcopals, or the strong pressure of
Austria and Russia, will induce him to waver in
his Italian policy, which has cemented and con
firmed England’s tavor.
Hanover. —The abolition of the Stadt Dues is
on the eve of settlement. The sum to be paid
Hanover is £460,000 ; Eugland and Hamburg pay
£153,000 each, and the remainder by the other
states interested.
Syria. —Disturbances are reported at Damascus,
occasioned by the levy.
Spain. —Judicial proceedings had been com
menced against Rodrique Servia, the man who
fired at the Queen of Spain. He has confessed,
aud says he was employed by Heruore l’rade, a
Deputy of the Cortes Alii.
Africa. —The human sacrifices at Dahomey fur
exceeded the number reported. The victims were
reckoned by thousands.
BY THE EUROPA.
Cape Race, Thursday, Nov. 1.
The steamship Europa, from Liverpool on Satur
day, the 20th of October, via Queenstown 21st,
was boarded at this point at 5 A. M., to-day, by
the news yacht of the Associated Press.
Great Britain. —The weather in England con
tinued unsettled and stormy.
A Gotha newspaper supposes that the only
daughter of the Duke of Saxe MeiningeD, just
turned seventeen, is the destined bride of the
Prince of Wales.
France. —Count Persigny, the French Minister
to Loudon, has gone to Pans oa summons of the
Emperor. It was reported that he would soon re
place Yl. Tliouveuel in the Foreign Office.
The French bishops aud clergy continue boldly
and vigorously to defend the Papal cause. It was
believed the Papal Nuncio at Paris would not re
turn.
The Bourse, ou the 19th, was firm and animated,
the Rentes closing at 69f. 90c.
Italy. —Victor Emanuel had not reached Na
ples.
The last steamer rook out report that Pallavici
no, the Pro-Dictator of Naples, had resigned. La
ter dispatches say he and the Ministers remained
in office on account of the popular demonstra
tions, aud the expected arrival of Victor Emanuel.
It was reported that a fresh attack by the Roy
alists on the Garibaldians hud been repulsed.
A telegram from Naples announces the release
of Count Arrivabene, aud his recovery from his
wounds.
The movement of the Frendi upon Viterbo and
other places within fifty miies of Rome caused
great dissatisfaction among the inhabitants.
Petitions to the King of Sardinia and Napoleon
oil the subject were being most numerously signed
at various places.
It is reiterated that Austrian troops were large*
ly concentrated on the frontiers, and there was
au unconfirmed rumor that 4,000 Austrians from
Mantua had crossed the Po.
It was reported that the national vote in Sicily
would not take place till the 29th.
The Sardinian Chambers closed their session on
the 19th, after adopting an address to the King
expressive of their homage and gratitude.
Latest—By Telegraph from Queenstown.
. Liverpool, Sunday, Oct. 21.—The departure of
’ the Russian Ambassador from Turin is orticially
I announced.
There is no other news of importance.
Russia. —The Sovereigns were to meet at War
saw ou the day the Europa sailed.
It was reported that Prussia will demand Aus
tria, as the price of her support in Europe, that
Austria should help in reviving at no distant day,
the question of the Danish Duchies. ‘
I>;uiA.~-The Bombay mails reached Marseilles

The dates aud Commercial news-had not trans

Another Wagher rising of an important charac
ter had taken place at Kutteawar.
China. —According to the Paris Patrie the Eng
lish Minister to China had received an intimation
that the Emperor would be disposed to conclude
peace if the allies captured the Pei-ho forts.
The Prospect.
If our readers would like to know what we
think of the prospect, we will tell them very
frankly.
If Lincoln fails to get the electoral vote of New
York, lie will fail of an election by the people, and
the cleciin will devolve upon the House of Repre
sentatives. In no event can he be elected by the
House. Down to this present writing, our advices
from New York are to the efl'ect, that the Union
ticket will be carried.
If it be, we believe Mr. Bell will be the Presi
dent.
Our friends from all parts of/Alabama write us
confidently, that the vote of that State will be cast
for the Union ticket—the Democracy being divi
ded between Breckinridge and Douglas. They
write hopefully from Mississippi, Arkansas and
Texas. The formation of a Douglas ticket in
Florida would seem to ensure that State for our
candidates. Os Tennessee we are sure. On this
point our information from all parts of the State
authorizes us to feel entire confidence.
Kentucky is certain for Bell and Everett. So are
Virginia and North Carolina. Louisiana we con
sider entirely safe. And so would be Georgia, if,
as in the other States we have mentioned, a plu
rality would elect. What the Legislature of
Georgia will do in case it devolves upon it
to elect electors, in consequence of no one of the
tickets receiving a majority of the popular vote,
we have no means of knowiug.
But supposing the Union ticket to prevail in
New York, as our intelligence authorizes us to
hope aud believe, and Mr. Bell carries three
fourths or more of the electoral votes of the South,
as he will doubtless do, is it unreasonable to sup
pose that the electoral colleges of New York and
of the Southern States, will, in view of the im
pending crisis, unite in electing him, as they
would have it in their power to do ?
But supposing thut not done, and the election to
devolve upon the House, we believe Mr. Bell
would be elected by the House.
We say, therefore, to our Union friends every
where, stand by your ticket like true men ; put
forth your whole strength, individually and col
lectively, and you may save the Union from dis
ruption, and your country from the direful conse
quences of such a catastrophe.— National Union.
The Patriot’s Inquiry. —At the present mo
ment the earnest inquiry of every true patriot is,
which of all the candidates uow before the people
is best calculaaed, by his present attitude aud Dy
his past acts, to allay the unnatural fever of the
country, und to bring peace and prosperity out of
sectional strife ? If the left to the cool,
dispassionate and unprejudiced judgment of each
voter, reason, with its unerring hnger, will point
to John Bell as the man for the present crisis.
He is no trading politician, entering into intrigues
to buy the favor of one section of the country or
to avert the prejudices of another section. His
whole political life has been one of devotion to
the Union. His record is without blot or stain.
It was made, not with ulterior views of popularity,
but it is the record of a life devoted to our coun
try, and, upon every page bears the impress of a
statesman guided by the integrity of his purposes
and the purity of his principles. John Bell is the
only true Union candidate in the field. All who
are in favor of the Uniou, and believe the ques
tion of its continuance to be above all other ques
tions, will vote for John Bell. —Richmond Whig.
The London Commercial Record states that the
Great Eastern steamship is so shaken up and
weakened that she is unseawortby.

IPT“ Practical Advice to Ladies.— The first symptoms
of disease should never be disregarded. If not removed, serious
evils will inevitably follow, and in seeking assistance all reme
dies that will act violently or reduce the strength, should be
avoided. They, instead of assisting nature, weaken and de
bilitate those organs. For Female Complaints, take MC
LEAN’S STRENGTHENING CORDIAL AND BLOOD
PURIFIER. It stands pre-eminent in all diseases peculiar to
females. Try it; it Is a delicious aromatic Cordial.

Valuable Testimony from a Highly Respectable Source.
General John T-I. Rice, a practising Attorney in Cass county,
Ga., and editor and Ptoprietor of the “Standard,” at Cassville,
writes thus, over his own signature:
Cashvii.le, Ga., Feb. 23,1C58.
Messrs. Seth W. Fnwle & Cos., Boston, M;us.—Gentlemen :
At the request of your Traveling Agent, I give you a statement
of my experience In the use of Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild
Cherry. I have been using it for two veirs In my family, for
Colds aud Coughs, and have found it the most efficacious
remedv that I have ever tried.
For Coughs and Colds in chi dren, I know it to be an excel
lent medium. Respectfully, yours.
John H. Rice.
From Rev. Jesse M. Wood, D, D.
Rome, Ga., April 4,1860.
Dear Sirs: Tlis certifies that four years ago I suflered with
a distressing cough. During the winter and spring of 1 56. I
used Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry, with considerable
advantage. I consider it a valuable remedy for Coughs and
Colds. J. M. Wood.
CAUTION TO PURCHASERS.—The only genuine Wis
tar’s Balsam has the written signature of “ I. Butts,” and the
printed one of the proprietors on the wrapper ; all other Is vile
and worthless.

Drandretli’s Pills are growing more In favor with the
public. It Is nov/ conceded they are the best purgative yet put
f >rth from the world of medicine. The time will surely arrive
when they will supersede all other purgatives whatever. The
ingredients of which they are composed can scarcely be obtain
ed by druggists or the makers of other pills. Dr. Brandreth
lias them grown and prepared without regard to the expense.
And this care to make apopu ar purgative is appreciated, as
their sales indicate. Other purgatives are dragging a flickering
existence. And yet they may have some merit. But BRA N
DRETH’S PILLS arc safe and sure—safe, because they ope
rate solely on impure humors. No valuable fluid is touched;
only effete or worn-out material, which, when taken out of the
body leaves it stronger. They are as pleasaut as a truly effec
tive medicine can be. To say that they will not sometime give
pain would not be crue, but the pain they give is only because
they remove those trude and bad humors lrom the blood which
are the occasion of disease. They open nature's avenues, and
this ca'.not always be done pleasantly.

t3P~ Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters.— The doubt with
which an oft. deceived community is apt to look upon ail medi

the triumphant, universal and Invariable success of IIOSTET
TER’S STOMACH HITTERS. Their effect in all disorders
of the digestive organs are not miraculous, because they are the
necessary result of certain rne ical properties never heretofore
combined in one preparation, but they are nevertheless aston
ishing. Aged persons who deemed themselves past help from
medicine, declare (to use the words of a correspondent,) that,
the Hitters seems to have given them a new’ lease of life. Un
questionably the majority of dangerous diseases are the off

“ I was troubled in January last with costiveness for several

cold, I suppose ; at any rate, a severe diarrhea set in, which my
medical attendant fouud It impossible to arrest. This was fol
lowed by dysentery. My strength was ail gone Everything
passed through me as I took it. A friend irom New York, Mr
George Lewis, fortunately called on me, and advised Bran-*

enough, but he administered four, and the next morning four
more. Much Impurity came from me, and, to my surprise, the
soreness and pain diminished. One box cured me fully. I am
now hearty, with a good appetite.”

NOTICE AND CAUTION.
THE “simple statement” of John K. Jackson, Esq., of the
3d inst., requires from me a notice, which, from the state
of my health, must, at this time, be brief
Mr. Jackson is now, and has been for several years, a Direc
tor and the Attorney of the Union Bank ot’ this city. He
knows all about the agreement which President Thomas pro
posed, for he aided in drawing it up. He knows that it was
duly executed by my late brother William and myself, and
that the Banks took advantage of our reliance on tlieir good
faith, to carry the cases against us on the docket to judgment,
insttad of dismissing them. The Attorney of the Union Bank
(his predecessor in office,) took the lead on that occasion, as he
said, by order of the Board of Directors. He was a member of
the Board, but in favor of complying with the agreement. The
Attorneys of the other Banks followed as a matter of course.
Cashier Davies, ol the Bank of Augusta, informed me that
President Thomas applied to that Bank to unite in appointing
John K. Jackson, Esq., their common Attorney, to take
charge of all the judgments in question. And after my
imprisonment in the jail of Richmond county, by virtue of a
ca. sa. at the suit of the Bank of Augusta, the Cashier wrote to
me on the 14th September, 1858, that *• the Bank gave no order
for the issue of the ca. sa., but he presumes it was done by Mr.
Jackson for reasons which were deemed by him satisfactory.”
The object in appointing a common Attorney, was, as the
event showed, to levy the executions on the property of the
heirs of Mrs. Mary Ann Harper—four of them orphans—for the
property off. &W. Harper had been sold, or rather sacrificed,
marc than two years before the latter levy was made. This
levy was the pretext for a compromise, which seems to have
been always in view of the plaintifla’ Attorneys, rather than a
trial by jury.
Mr. John B. Whitehead, representing all the heirs, was in
dignant at the name of compromise, but was offended with me
for opposing the disgraceful one which he afterwards accepted.
The proposal for it, which I saw, was in the handwriting of the
common Attorney, John K. Jackson, Esq. 1 must close for the
present. JAMES BARKER.

I have been regularly appointed her Executor, having been
duly sworn and qualified. I have faithfully performed my
duty, as my retnrus, regularly made to the Court of Ordinarv,
and'passed by it, will prove. Believing that his Honor Judge
Holt erred in this case, I have appealed to the Supreme Court
of Georgia. It seems to be intended to disregard this appeal,
on account of some alleged trivial informality which, if it has
occurred, was caused by sickness.
I most solemnly protest, against the appointment of a Re
ceiver in this ease. It is the result of a most disgraceful com
promise proposed by John K. Jackson, Esq., and agreed to by
Mr. John B. Whitehead for himself and others, to relieve the
Banks from the necessity of dismissing their levies, or of having
in plead before a Jury in a case in which it would have been
shown that their judgment, was obtained by undeniable perfi
dy, which operated upon the injured party as a fraud and swin
dle, and taints w ith fraud every subaequ nt proceeding of which
it is the basis. JAAIES HARPER.

Is a total disintegrated depth of twenty-seven inches, and those
who so practice will find that they have another farm beneath
that represented on their map. A smaller size of this Plow,
(onc-horee) thinner in the sole and more dart-like in its figure,
is an admirable implement for cultivating crops, and will do
the work of more than forty men with hoes. With the corn
crop, this tool may run close alongside the com, and to the full
depth of twelve inches when the com is i ut three inches high,
and before the. roots occupy the space between the rows ; this
will lift the soil, move every corn plant with the soil, and for so
slight a distance as not to separate the particles from the roots,
yet so completely loosening the mass that the plant mav be
picked up with the fingers. This Is more thorough cultivation
than can be obtained by one hundred hoeings, leaving the soil
in better tilth and cutting of no roots. More than twenty
thousand of these Plows were sold last year.
