PURLiSHJSD DAILY AND WEEKLY,
BY W. S. JONES.
SUNDAY MORN’S, NOV. 18, 1860.
_
From the Southern Recorder.
To Men of Calm Reflection I Still
Would Speak.
It is in this article that I propose to give my ‘news
of the present position of our National affairs;
and what the aggrieved States ought to do; and
bv the views set fortn in this artiele alone, may
any one dare to quote my opinion on the question
of dissolving the Union, either now or hereafter?
Hut before I enter upon this ditlicult task, I wish
to say something about myself. 1 have yielded a
great deal in my life, even enough to affect my
consciousness in regard to ministerial rights and
duties ; but I yielded to the pressure of a capri
cious demagogueism, which was always rife at
the time, when I felt it to be a duty, as an aged
minister and citizen of the State to speak. Sever
al times within the last eight years, I have moved
in the direction of a citizen of my State ; and to
let my opinions, as to our interests, be put into
circulation ; but in every move in that direction
some of the party Journals of the country have
treated me in my name and in my sacred office,
so cavalierly as to make auy gentleman who would
not degrade himself with the slang, common at
the hustings of a vile demagoguish harangue,
withdraw from the field.
But as to my right to express my opinion, on
the question of a dissolution of the Union, I think
all fair minded men will commend it. It is a ques
tion on which I desire to unveil myself. I still
*oy that Lincoln’s election and induction into
office, are not in themselves considered sufficient
to justify a secession of the Southern States ; but
would be good primafacie evidence, that it would
likely develop into causes, both of justification
and of necessity ; and that the Southern States
ought to regard it and to set their sights accord
ingly. But let our Representatives and Senators
hold on to their seats. Let the aggrieved States
hold a Convention, and consider wisely, but calm
ly, on the present state of the Union, aud through
their Representatives and Senators in the Nation
al Legislature, let their ultimatum be known. Lay
it down and stick to it. Let us take this ground,
and never yield it. that the preservation of the
Union depends on the restoration of the‘Constitu
tional equality aud rights of all the States.
And let the first demand be that the Union cau
not, and w r ill not, yea ! shall not remain inviolate,
unless the General Government cause to be re
moved from the statute book of every State, all
laws and authoritative resolutions, intended to
defeat the fugitive slave law, in its Federal guaran
ty to the States of the Federal compact in regard
to the right of property in the several states;
and the liberty of a citizen iu any state, to pursue
after, and recover his property in any other state
of the Union, without molestation ; and that each
and every state having contemned the Federal
law of the land, by the passage of a law, of the
adoption of au authoritative resolution with evi
dent intention to destroy the property right, or in
any wise jeopardize the personal liberty of any
citizen of uuother state, belonging to this Confed
eracy, shall be regarded as iu rebellion against
the General Government, and cannot iu this atti
tude, be allowed any representation in the Con
gress of the United States; because every state
occupying this attitude toward the General Gov
ernment, has disqualified itself to bold any office
under the authority of the Constitution*of the
United States.’
We entered into the Union upon this basis, and
if we were to femain iu it under any lower gradu
ation, we should be not only damaged, but dis
graced
Let the South make the demand, with a united
and determined front. Make it while in Union,
make it of the General Government, with the ab
solute assurance that if it is not done, the Union
is dissolved as a fixed alternative*. It will have
effect. At all events it will open up the future
more clearly to our eyes. To me it seems most
clear, that no man in the South would consent to
stay in the Union, after seeing the ground openly
taken, that our people are to be denied the equal
benefits of Constitutional Federal protection.—
This course of action will bring up this question
directly; bring it up so that the auswer cannot
be merged into other issues. To me it has been
a matter of surprise, that neither the last nor the
present Fresident, has, in as far as mv knowledge
reaches, ever called the attention of Congress to
this monstrous usurpation of State power over a
Constitutional National law; nor do I know of
any Southern Member or Senator that has made
an issue of usurpation of power, once surreuder
ed to the Government of the Union, by these
States that have passed anti-fugitive slave laws,
against us, before Congress; an issue that I think
should be raised and settled; for it us mam States
as pleases, may revoke a Federal law, made for
our protection, and still hold their seats, and use
the| legislative power in the Congress of the
United States, then is the Constitution of our
confederation no longer a living substantial real
ity to us, but a stupendous nominal farce.
I voted the Union ticket, and would do it again
if there was anything like disunion, for its own
sake, to be guessed or spelt out ou the banner of
any of our vociferuting politicians. This I think
I have seen. The evil that is upon us mav have
been an evil risked, with the hope that a dissolu
tion of the Union would be the elevatiou of defeat
ed party hopes, to the everlasting leadership of a
new Confederacy. If we ever do organize a south
ern Confederacy, thereVill'be many long aud able
speeches, aud written articles upon the” question
of its structure. And if these States will manfully
make the demand of our equal rights, as herein
suggested, aud make dissolution a fixed fact, un
less we are invested with all the rights aud bene
fits intended to be secured to us by the fugitive
slave law. This being deuied us, lam ready for
dissolution before that day’s sun sets.
L. Pierce.
Partt Still— Mr. Cullen's Resolution. —We
have heard much of late of the abolition of all t
party distinctions and orgauizationa in this State, *
and our Democratic friends have seemed purlieu- i
iurly solicitous to briDg aoout such a consumma
tion. It appears, however, that we are to have
party in spite of the general unanimity of our
people on existing issues. The Milledgeville cor
respondent of the Morning News, referring to the
failure of a motion in the House to adjourn while
the resolutions of Mr. Cullens authorizing the
Governor to aid in repelliug all federal attempts
to coerce a Bister Southern State were pending,
gravely announces that “it is considered a great
triumph of the Southern Rights Party.” So, after
all we are to have parties to divide us, and in this
case au organization based upon the unworthy
imputation that there is one portion of the people
of Georgia who are less true to the rights of the
Houth than another portion. Wheu such distinc
tions are sought to oe made, pray, how are we
ever to expect anything like united action and
harmony of feeling? Let those who make them
take the responsibility.
Ou the subject of the vote alluded to, our cor
respondent writes us as follows :
“The vote of the House is not, by any means,
a fair test of the final disposition ot Mr. Cullen’s
resolution. Many who are for assisting South
Carolina, cr any other Southern State, are unwil
ling to give the Governor authority to compel our
people to do so. Let i* be, say they, a voluntary
act. — Savannah Republican.
The N. 0. Picayune opposes disunion. It says:
Those who to-day refuse to make the victory
lost a cause of revolution, would be the first to re
sent aud resist an open, undisguised violation of
she rights reserved to the States. They are not
less true to the South because also true to the
Union. They do not less see danger because they
are determined to meet it in the Union. And it is
because of their devotion, both to the State and
to the Federal Government, that they will not
make an issue which cannot unite the people of
the States who will all be imperilled by it, in every
material and social interest.
A Southern Confederacy cannot be formed by
States while in the Union. It is forbidden by the
Constitution, as is any association of States for
auy such purpose. The secession of one State
without concert with others is a species of dicta
tion to its co-equals of the South. Difficulties of
every character surround the subject, and it re
quires deliberate preparation before a single step
be taken. In the meantime we shall see what ne
cessity may exist for action. We can judge wheth
er this Government has proved a failure, aud all
hope of freedom is lost.
Such we believe will be the decision of the peo
ple of the South, aud we look for the excitements
of feeling to give place to a sober, intelligent and
deliberate purpose to take no hasty step, yet to be
prepared for whatever the future may have in
store.
Fight with Indians United States Officer Kill.
d.— The New Mexican mail, with dates to the 28th
nit., has arrived. Capt. Geo. McLane, of the
mounted rifles, was killed by the Navajo Indiaus
on the 13th of October. He was out on a scout
with his company, and when within about twenty
live miles of Fort Defiance, a party of Indians
were overtaken. In the charge upou them, Cupt.
McLane killed four Indiaus with his pistols. When
the charge was made and the word to rally given,
the Captain became separated from bis men and
was seen to fall from his horse. His foot became
untangled in bis stirrup, and his horse being
frightened, ran off, dragging him u considerable
distance before be was stopped. When his men
came up, they found that oe was dead. He had
three shots iu him, which must have produced m
stant death. Capt, McLane was a sou of Senator
McLaoe, of Delaware. He leaves a widow and
three children, who are at Albuquerque. The In
dians, after the death of Capt. McLane, mado their
escape.
The Missouri Election.— A dispatch from St.
Louis dated the 13th, says: The result of the
Presidential election in this State is still doubt
ful, and cannot be known positively for several
d&yß. The Republican and Democrat figure
Douglas slightly ahead, with about thirty counties
to her from. The Bulletin figures Bell considera
bly ahead, with thirty eight counties to hear from.
The vote for Breckinridge is about 23,000, aud for
Lincoln 16,000. Fifty-four couuties (offioial) give
Bel! 84,884 ; 29,617.
The latest advices from California state that the
noiitical State campaign in that State is drawing
to a close without much excitement—all parties
conceding the election of Lincoln as certain.
As Goes Georgia, so go I.
By the success of the Black Republican party—
a party avowedly hostile to the extension, if not
to the existence, of Slavery—the South is forced
to debate the question, whether it is consistent
with her honor longer to remain in a Union she
aided to form, to strengthen and perpetuate. It
is a pity, that under the influence of unscrupuluos
demagogues, and unprincipled politicians and
placemen, to whom she too confidingly entrusted
the protection of her rights and honor, she has
learned to hesitate aud to debate, when these are
assailed and imperilled. But so it is; and the
South is debating whether she cau honorably re
main in a Union composed, in part, of States so
oblivious to the obligations of the Compact, so un
just to the others, as have been a majority of the
Northern States to the Southern. It is almost too
late now to debate, for the wrong, especially those
connected with the Legislation to prevent the en
forcement of the Fugitive Slave Law, allowing
negroes to vote, and, practically, denying us auy
participation in the settlement of the Territories
—grievous, insulting, degrading as they are—
have been submitted to for years almost without
a murmur. Nothing has, of late, transpired to
equal either one of these in their direct prejudi
cial influence upon Slavery, or the rights and in
terests of the South. If the South has cause now
for Secession, sheuas had it for years; yet she
has declined to resort to it for what we * would
esteem more sufficient cause than she has recent
ly received.
But having submitted so long, she is undecided
now whether she should secede or not. Indeci
sion does not imply tameness or fear—it probably
resnlts from a desire to reflect. It is a matter de
manding reflection—it is a step not to be rashly
taken ; the interests and peoples involved—being
not only those of this but future countless genera
tions—are too momentous to be hastily or rashly
put in jeopardy.
The States most interested in the enforcement
of the Fugitive Slave Law, who suffer most by the
escape of slaves, are least excited just now, aud
most disposed to stand by the Union. Those
more remote, and who sutler but little, are most
excited, aud most disposed to disuuion. Between
two of these, Soutli Carolina aud Alabama, Geor
gia is situated. As we said on yesterday, she i3
anxiously looked to, aud, probably holds the
dread issue iu her keeping. Should she decide on
seceding, we doubt not South Carolina, Florida,
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas would
co-operate, separately or in a body; but, should
all the others be for it, they will not, in our opin
ion, venture upon it should Georgia decline.
Georgia, then, will become the field of battle, and
will quite likely, now as in 1850, decide the fate of
the Union in the present cnticul juncture. The
People of Georgia, tlieu, have ueed to ponder, to
reflect, long and anxiously, before they act, that,
when they act, they may do so as men who have
weighed ail the consequences, immediate and re
mote, to herself and all her sister slave States.
We often hear the people say, I am willing to
stand by Georgia; whatever she decides on doing,
1 will abide by; as goes Georgia, so 1 go. Almost,
if not quite, everybody, thus express themselves.
But what and who is Georgia ? What maxes up
the decision of Georgia ? and how is her course to
be determined ? Only by ascertaining the indi
vidual opinions of a majority of all the people, of
whom tuese very persons iorm a part. Now, to
make up a decision for Georgia—for Georgia to
determine upou her Course—each individual citi
zen must nuke up his mind whatAa intends to do,
and, when the time comes, vote accordingly. If
the majority of individual opinions is for seces
sion, the btute will determine on the remedy ;
but if u majority are in favor of one more manly
and mantel struggle for the Union, Georgia will
determine on making it. To say “ dam willing
to abide by what Georgia does,” is a vain attempt
to shirk individual responsibility. Each voter
must decide for himself, or the opinion of Georgia
never will be known or pronounced. Every one,
then, who will cast a vote for members of the Con
vention, should begin h.s examination, so as to
decide whether there exists sufficient cause for
disunion or not, and then vote as he believes to be
right, with a full seuse of the fearful responsibility
which attaches to the act, and in view of its influ
ence ou the future of his posterity and the coun
try. Let everv citizen feel that upon him, iudi
vutuallj’, and not upon his neighbor, or the State
of Georgia, rests the responsibility, and that his
opinion, his decision, his, determination, may he
that which shall decide the position of Georgia
and the fate of the country. As the decision
must be made, the investigation should be quickly
begun.— Ailanta American.
Perhaps says the Louisville Journal, we have
published already the subjoined extract from the
Hon. Jere Clemens’ eloquent speech at Huntsville,
hut it cannot be read too often or pondered too
deeply and solemnly. We look for a momentous
struggle iu Alabama within the next month or
two between the Uniou’s friends and the Union’s
enemies, aud we rejoice that the patriot forces
will have so chivalrous and powerful a champion
and leader as Mr. Clemens :
I hold it to be the duty of a good citizen to look
well at nil the consequences before plunging into
revolution, either under the influence oi’ his own
passions or at the dictation of ambitious leaders.
Couceding his full right to stake his own life upon
the desperate game, it is still certain that lie has
no right to trifle with the lives and happiness of
others. We have a ready refuge from tyranny,
hut in the meantime what is to become of that
portion of our race to whom we are bound by so
mauy ties? What is to become of the wife who
sheds a halo around your fireside, of those gentle
and tender girls who are scattered like lovely
flowers through this ussembly—or of the little
oues you have left at home in the sweet enjoy
ment of secure aud peaceful sleep ? They are de
barred by uature, aud the customs of society,
from takiug part in these fierce conflicts, and
when we have goue dowu, they will remain to
become the victims or the slaves of our murde
rers.
Am I wrong, then, in asking you to be certain
that some intolerable grievance exists, for which
there is no other honorable redress, before be
coming u party to disunion ? Lay your hands
upon your hearts and tell me, if you can, what
that grievance is. What wrong are you suffering?
* What oppression weighs upon you? The sun
1 which will rise to-morrow from beyond yonder
* mountains, in its long journey, will shine upon no
land so happy and so blessed as ours. It will
travel ou from continent to continent, sometimes
in joy, and sometimes in sorrow—looking down
upon the chained captive in one place—upon the
lordly proprietor in another—upon the widow’s
anguish in another, and the lover’s rapture in
another, but nowhere else will its beams he glad
dened by the presence of universal peace, of uni
versal plenty, and of universal freedom. Why
then should you wish to destroy the government
uuder which, and by which all this has beeu se
cured ? What desire cau you have to substitute
for that splendid and glorious picture, a landscape
whose waters are tears, whose vegetation has
been blasted by fire, and whose inhabitants lme
beeu thiuned out by the sword?
Financial.— The Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore Sun, uuder (Tate of the 14th, says :
The New York Commercial Journal states that
the money market is more stagnant there than it
has been for years. They do not, however, seem
to fear a financial panic, not even a long-contin
ued’ depression. But we have private accounts
from that quarter, which, if credited, would be
alarming. It is even asserted by some that the
New York hanks will have to follow the south
western hanks iu suspension, whenever the latter
take that step.
What Protection Shall wb Have?— lt is con
ceded that Lincoln is elected. It is a question of
importance now “What has the South for protec
tion V” Let us see:
1. The Supreme Court of the United States.
2. We should still have the United States Sen
ate ; and
3. We shall have the United States House of
Representatives.
No bill could come before the Executive for his
signature that had not received the sanction of
both houses of Congress. No appointment could
be made by him without the sanction of\the Uni
ted States Senate.
But let us suppose that he attempts to do un
lawful things, that he attempts to violate the
rights of a portion of the people or States of the
Uuion, or to transcend in any respect the author
ity vested iu him by the Constitution and laws.
What is tho remedy ? Impeachment by the
House, aud trial aud puuishmeut by the Senate if
found guilty. Having both branches of Congress
on the bide of the South and the Constitution, can
any man doubt that they would perform their du
ty ? We should thus have three distinct ram
parts against aggression between us and the Pres
ident. Such a course would he at once dignified,
constitutional, safe, and would raise us up hosts
of friends everywhere. The sympathies of all
conservative men of all classes would be on our
side, and with such a basis of moral political pow
er, and a cordial union North and South, against
sectionalism, can any reasonable inau doubt that
at the next election the Republican sectionalists
would be routed, horse, foot and dragoons?
The Proposed State Convention. —We endorse
and cordially adopt the following wise sugges
tions of our cotemporary of the Constitutionalist:
It is to be regretted that so early in advance of
the proposed convention of the people of Georgia,
tickets should be suggested for the support of the
citizens of Richmond or of any county. Nothing
should be said or done in this grave matter, to
divide public opinion or excite personal aspiru
tions, or the partialities of friends. When the
time arrives, there should be a primary meeting
of voters, in which all sections of each county
and every shade of opinion should be represented,
and one ticket harmoniously agreed on in each
county. Let there be no parties or contests at the
polls. Let harmony, union, and concert of action
prevail arnodg the people of Georgia.
Further From Mexico.—Terrible Slaughter.
—A private letter from the highest authority at
Vera Cruz confirms the accouuts already publish
ed of the massacre at Guadalajara. Among other
things, it is said that a mine was sprung upon the
liberals in their assault upon the city, and five
huudred of their number were instantly killed.—
So far, however, from arresting their progress,
this only iufurated them more, and forcing their
way in by six different branches attfiesame time,
they bayoneted the enemy at their works, and
slaughtered all who stood in their way. The ex
excution of the opposing general, Castillo and his
officers, is doubtless to be attributed to this infu
riated spirit.—/V. O. Picayune.
The British and American Difficulty - af Pana
ma.—The Panama Star and Herald of October
30th, gives a narrative of events which have re
sulted in a correspondence between Flag-Officer
Montgomery, of the United States squadron, and
Capt. Miller, of the British mau-of-war Clio. It
appears that British sentries were placed in front
of the British and French Consulates, with orders
to challenge every passer, and demand au answer
to the challenge:
On Saturday, the 20th, Dr. John P. Kluge, an
American citizen, and employee of the Panama
Railroad Company, complained to the American
Consul of the manner in which he and others had
beeu molested by an English sentry, and the case
was taken uuder investigation and laid before
Flag-Otlicer Montgomery. The same uight, as
Lieut. Fitzhugh, of the United States sloop St.
Marys, and a son of Capt. Engle, of the United
States Navy, commanding the Chirique expedi
t:on, were passing the English Consulate, they were
hailed by the seutiuel, to which they made no re
ply, and upon attempting to pass were stopped,
the sentry presenting his bayonet. The sergeant
of the guard was sent for, and when requested to
go lor the lieutenant did so, after ordering the
sentry to shoot them down if they attempted to
escape. On the arrival of the lieutenant they
were released.
On Monday, flag officer Montgomery addressed
a communication to Capt. Miller, of the Clio, with
a statement of the circumstances that transpired
Saturday night, as also the complaints made
through the American Consul, and demanded the
immediate discontinuance of the practice, regard
ing it as aggressive towards the United States, and
unless it was immediately discontinued he would
at once adopt measures for the re-establishment
of the neutrality of the city and Isthmus of Pana
ma. The flag officer also opened a correspond
ence with the Intendente of Panama, with the
view of fixing the responsibility where it belongs.
On the 23d, flag-officer Montgomery addressed a
communication to Capt. Miller, in reference to the
arrest of Dr. Kluge, on the night of the 21st, by
the guard in front of the French Consulate, when
he was detained a prisoner till morning. Subse
quently, Montgomery addressed Captain Miller
another letter, suggesting the duties of guards fur
nished for protection of Consulates in foreign
ports from ships-of-war, and gave that officer to
understand that their operations must he confined
to the precincts of the Consulates, and not one
foot beyond; and had he known in time of the im
prisonment of Dr. Kluge, he would have employed
the necessary means to procure his instant release.
A Prairie Scene. —A correspondent of the
London Times, in describing the Prince’s visit to
the Western prairies, writes as follows :
The Prince was certainly most fortunate in his
visit, for the time of the year, lie had almost
universal sport. He saw a prairie thunder-storm,
a prairie fire of immense extent, and, above all, a
prairie sunset. The latter took place in all its
supernatural glory—a glory which can never be
described or understood by those who have not
seen it—while the party were shooting quail, the
night before their departure. As the sun neared
the rich green horizon, it turned the whole ocean
of meadow into a sheet of gold, which seemed to
blend with the great firmament of reds and [.inks
—pale rosy orange hues, and solemn, angry-look
ing crimson clouds above, till not only (he sky,
but all the land around was swathed in piles of
color, as if the sinking sun shone through the
earth like mist, and turned it to a rainbow. The
immensity of stillness which lay in the prairie
then—a stillness as profound and vast as the
green solitude itself, while not a breath stirred
over the whole horizon as the great transmutation
went slowly on, and the colors over the land
turned from rose to pink, to orange, to red aud
crimson—darkening and darkening always, as
tints ebbed out like a celestial tide, leaving frag
ments of scarlet clouds over the heaveus—the cm
hers of the fire which had lit the prairie in a flame
of glory. There was such a quiet, unspeakable
richness in this grand farewell of duy—such a ter
rible redness about the sky at last, that one could
almost fancy some supernatural phenomenon had
occurred, that the sun had gone forever, and left
a deep and gory wound across the darkening sky.
Night was a relief compared to this dread, lurid
fire in heaven—a tire which the clouds seemed to
close in upon, and stifle out with difficulty—a fire
which, like the paintings of the sunset before the
Deluge, left always an ominous anger in Jthe
heavens, eveu when the night was far advanced,
and the prairie clothed in a blue mist which rose
over it like water. It was such a sunset as mov
ed the rural inhabitants of Dwight; such asuuset
as eveu the “oldest inhabitant,’’ who had been
there some five years, had never seen before.
Miss Davenport’s Marriage.—The San Francis
co correspondent of the New York World, under
date of October 17th, writes :
The gallant Col. F. W. Lander, of overland
wagon-road expedition celebrity, has just been
joined in the bands of wedlock with the distin
guished and favorite actress, Miss Jane M. Da
venport. Tim Rev. Thomas Star King officiated
at the ceremony, which took place in this city on
Saturday evening last, October 13th. The happy
couple started immediately on an overland expe
dition to San Jose, to pass the honeymoon at one
of the delightful retreats in that valley. It is un
derstood that Mrs. Lander will retire from the
siuge immediately upon the completion of her
present engagements on the Atlantic side. It
seems that the attachment between the Colonel
and Miss Davenport was a matter of long stand
ing. From the statements of those who seem to
be well posted on the subject, it appears thut the
lady is “well to do’’ in a worldly seuse. Her for
tune is estimated at from $75,000 to SIOO,OOO.
Cotton Culture Abandoned in India. —Foreign
papers contain the following very significant para
graph, showing that after all the protracted efforts
to grow cotton iu the British Indian possessions,
the attempt has been ut length abandoned as
hopeless :
“lu the annual report of the Bombay Chamber
of Commerce a statement announces that the In
diau Government had finally abandoned, as being
a hopeless failure, their experiments at cotton
growing in that country. These experiments had
commenced as tar back as 1780, ana were prose
cuted almost without intermission during the
seventy-two years that have since elapsed. They
had cost, lrotn first to last, £350,000, and, as the
report states, had absorbed ‘the energies and in
telligence of governors, collectors, commissioners,
American planters, and painstaking amateurs.’
Yet the result of all this prolonged effort and
enormous outlay had haeu nothing hut a continued
scries of disappointments. One solitary success
is recorded as having been achieved, on ‘a small
scale,’ by Mr. Shaw, collector at Dharwar, who,
takiug up the enterprise in 1840, upon an area of
only 220 acres, developed the results so rapidly
that in 1851 there were 31,688 ‘kupas’ planted with
American, and 224,314 with native cotton, and in
1856 the area increased to 156,816 kupas appro
priated to the American, 230,667 to the native va
riety of the plant. It does not appear that Mr.
Shaiv was as§isted bv an/ Government grant in
this work; and, at all events, all direct co-opera
tion of the State with the cultivation of cotton is
now summarily abandoned.”
Autumn Leaves as an Ornament. —The wife of
one of our Ministers at the Court of St. James re
ceceived from a friend a box of the foliage of our
October woods, and, laying aside pearls from the
mines, she wore a simple wreath of sunset leaves
at a party in London, awaking the admiration of
all the high-born dames.
Prize Fighting in Vermont. — A bill is before
the Legislature to prevent prize fighting, making
every person who shall engage in uny such fight
punishable by imprisonment not more than ten
years, oi by fine not more than SSOOO ; and every
uid, second or surgeon, by imprisonment not
more than live years, or by fine not to exceed
slouo, and every resident of the State who goes
out of it to engage in such fight, subject to the
same puuishmeut as au “aid, second or surgeon”
to any such fight within the State.
Depopulating. —There is a gradual thinning
out of the scattered settlements in the northern
part of Coos county, N. H. Dixville, which ten
years ago had three families, has been uninhabi
ted for several years. Odell for many years lias
had but one inhabitant—a hermit. He entertains
visitors hospitably, but declines all invitations to
remove to the adjacent settlments. He refused
to answer questions as to his former history.
rr The Oxygenated Bitters.— For years medical sci
ence lias been taxed and tiifc skill of the physician exhausted in
the hope of discovering some remedy available to cure that
most distressing of all diseases—Dyspepsia, as well as its long
train of e vils under their various names.
No medicine existed which could speedily, permanently, ef
fectually and radically cure and expel these diseases from the
system until Dr. Green made known his discovery of the OXY
GENATED BITTERS. Such Is Its remarkable power and
peculiarity, that eases which for years have baffled the most
potent medicine and the highest professional skill, yield to this
remedy aB readily as if the disease were but of a day’s standing.

Covington, April 7, lfc6o.
Messrs. 8. W. Fowle & Co.—Gentlemen : Having derived
benefit from the use of the Oxygenated Hitters, 1 am glad to do
the public a favor by recommending them. For Dyspepsia and
its attendant evils, I consider it a remedy of inestimable value.
W. A. Harp.
Hon. Wm, W. Lamb, formerly Mayor of Norfolk, Va., has
just rendered the following testimony of the reeults produced
by the use of the Oxygenated Bitters:
Messrs. Seth W. Fowle & Co.—Gentlemen : One of my ser
vants suffered for several years with Prolapsus Uteri, and was
so much prostrated by the disease as to be confined to her bed,
expecting to die. She then took the Oxygenated Bitters and
recovered her health. W u. W. Lamb.

Pills are simple, but unmatched for efficacy. How important
that we at once secure an advantage over sickness when it can
be had at an outlay of only 26 cents.
Mr..l. C. llappelyea, of Monmouth county, N. J., writes
March 19, 1869 :
“ I was troubled In January last with costiveness for several
days, and took ten grains of calomel to obtain relief. I caught
cold, I suppose ; at any r te, a severe diarrhea set in, which my
medical attendant found i* Impossible to arrest. This was fol
lowed by dysentery. My strength was all gone Everything
passed through me as I took it. A friend lrom New York, Mr.
George Lewis, fortunately called on me, and advised Bran
dreth’s Pills, 1 thought in my weak condition, one pill would be
enough, but he administered four, and the next morning four
more. Much impurity came from me, aud, to my surprise, the
soreness and pain diminished. One box cured me fully. I am
now hearty, with a good appetite.”

BT BrandrHh’a Pills are growing more in favor with tli
public. It is now conceded they are the best purgative yet put
firth 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 he obtain
ed by druggists or the makers of other pills. Dr. Braudreth
has them grown and prepared without regard to the expense.
And this care to make a popu ar purgative is appreciated, as
their sales indicate. Other purgatives are dragging a flickering
existence. Aud yet they may have some merit. But BRAN
DRETH’S PILLS are 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 pleasant 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 from the blood which
are the occasion of disease. They open nature’s avenues, and
this cannot always be donejdeasantly.

“THE GLOBE,
The Official Paper of Congress.
I PUBLISH now rnv annual Prospectus of THE DAILY’
GLOBE, and THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE, and
APPENDIX, to remind subscribers, and inform those who
may desire to subscribe, that Congresr will meet on the first
Monday of next December, when I shall resume publishing the
above named papers. They have been published so long, that
most public men know tlnir character, ami therefore 1 deem it
needless to give a minute account of the kind of mutter they
will contain. •
THE DAILY GLOBE will contain a report of the Debates
in both lirarcl.es if Congress as taken down by reporters, equal,
at least, to any corps f short-hand writers in this, or in any
other country. A majority of them will, caeh, be able to re
pmt, verbatim, ten thousand words an hour, while the average
number of words snokcu by fluent speakers rarely exceeds
seven thousand five hundred words an hour. When the debates
of a day do not make nr re than forty five columns, they will
appear in the Daily Globe of the next morning, which will con
tain, also, the news of the day, together with such editorial ar
ticles as may be suggested by passing events.
THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX
will contain a report of alt the Debates in Congress, revised by
the speakers, the Messages of the President of the United
States, the Annual Reports of the Heads of the Executive De
partments, the Laws pass, and during the ses ion, and copious In
dexes to all. They will be printed on a double royal sheet, in
book form, royal quarto size, each number containing sixteen
pages. The whole will make, it is believed 2,000 pages This
is acknowledged to be the cheapest work ever sold in any
country, whether a re-print or printed from manuscript copy,
taking fdiktat a the average number of words it contains.
Th, coming session will, without doubt, be an unusually In
teresting one, bee use tlie debates will be in a great measure
upon the policy of the Presidentelect, andtheGlobe will be, as
it Ins been for many years past, ihe enl y source from which
full debates of Congress ean be obtained.
THE CONGRESSIONAL GLoBK AND APPENDIX
pass tree through the mails of the United States, as will be seen
bv reading the so lowing Joint Resolution passed by Congress
the oth ot August, 1852 :
Joint Kesolution providing for the distribution of the Laws

EVERY MERCHANT
SHOULD HAVE A
Reliable Fire and Burglar Proof
SAFE 2
Inn. onlvsuccessful attempt to manufacture SAFES upon
. scientific, and therefore reliable principles, is found in
Valentine A Butler’s Alum Patent Fire and Burglar Proof
SAFE. Chemistry has been brought to aflord its assistance to
this importanto.ject, and with themost absolute success. The
merchant has in this Safe a perfect guaranty for the safety of
his records, in all the required forms of security against fire,
depredation ana dampness. The manufacturers clam, upon
the following grounds, that t.hlffls the only depository devised
for the safe keeping of valuables, which can justly be termed a
SAFE. The Safes sold by the various makers, are filled either
on the vaporizing or non-conducting principle. The Alum
Patent Safe is made upon the former principle. AU others are
filled with Plaster of Paris, Pipe Clay, or s mdar substances,
called non-conductors of heat, which quality neither these or
any others possess, except in a partial and inadequate degree.
They are. however, sometimes successful In sesiaring a mode
rate fire, because the plaster Is put in when moist, but this
moisture dries out at the rate or twenty per cent a year, besides
corroding the lining of the Safe, and Injuring documents by
reason of the dampness having a tendency to discharge ink
from paper. Important documents have been frequently de
stroyed by being kept in damp Safes. Many Safes, which their
owners confidently count upon as security tor their money and
papers, will be found to be anything but Safes in the time of
trial, especially If they are three or four years old.
The Alum Patent Safe Is filled with natural salts, which re
main perfectly dry until heated, when they discharge so much
steam a* to render it imoossible for their contents to be de
stroyed. During the t welve years they have been in use. not
withstanding hundreds of them have been subjected to the
severest ordeals, not one has failed to preserve its contents un
injured. As fast as the public become acquainted with the
principle upon which a Sate should be made, they purchase
them to the exclusion of all others. Their quality as a Burglar
Proof Sale has been most severely tested, and lu no Instance
has the burglar succeeded in enteHg one of them. The lock
is powder-proof, and the key can be carried In the vest wicket.
