Mass Meeting at Enon.
Macon County, Ala., Aug 8, 1850.
In pursuance of previous publication, a large
portion of the citizens ot Macon, Russell and
Barbour counties, assembled at Enon, on the
Bth inst. for the purpose of ratifying the proceed
ings of the late Nashville convention.
On motion, Joel T. Crawford and A. D. Cleck
loy were requested to preside over the delibera
tions of the meeting; and D. E. Anthony and
D. M. Seals were appointed Secretaries. The
bbject of the meeting was explained by A. L).
Cieckley in a clear, forcible and eloquent manner.
On motion of Wm. A. M’Carty, a committee ‘
bf fifteen was appointed by the chair to report
resolutions expressive of the sense of this body; I
which committee consisted of Wm. A. M’Carty,
Win. J. Owen, N. Cachet, Dr. Caldwell, Wm.
E. Dubose, C. E. Treutlen, N. D. Guerry, Jona
than Davis, H. King, Granville White, George
W. Turner, D. A. Ridgeway. 11. M. Cieckley,
E. W. Tarver and Thomas Morton. During \
the absence of the Committee, one of the Secre- !
taries, by request, read the resolutions of the
Nashville Convention.
After which Gen. G. W. Gunn, one of our
delegates to said Convention, was introduced to, !
and addressed the meeting ably and eloquently, |
far one hour and a half, in vindication of the
Nashville Convention.
The Committee, through Wm. A. M’Carty,
their Chairman, reported the following resolu- j
lions:
W here as, the jighls of the South are seri- 1
‘ously threatened by the Northern portion of this
confederacy, in urging upon us, through their !
Representatives and Senators in Congress, the i
kdo’ption of measures fraught with injustice to j
Mm, and dangerous to the union of these States.
Be it therefore Resolved, That we hold sacred :
the union of these States, as it existed in the
days of our fathers, an union of equality and j
of justice to all; and that they only an* truly
unionists who hold that eqifality shall be pre
eerved, and even seated justice administered to
nil
$4. Resolved. That should Congress, inflirer.c
"ed by this dire spirit of abolition, force upon the j
territories the Wilmot Proviso, or any kindred ;
taeaatare, (though under the disguise of com
promise,) then, and in that event, the dissolu
tion of this Union would be inevitable.
3d. Resolved, That we approve the resolutions
and address of the Nashville Convention, and
that we do hereby confirm, endorse and ratify
the action of said Convention.
4th. Resolved, That the South has already
conceded too much, by the Missouri Compro
mise, and that but for the fact, that the South
has heretofore acquiesced in said compromise,
we could not now accept it. We olfer this
sacrifice upon the altar of the Union.
sth. Resolved , That the dismemberment of
Texas, without her consent—the admission of
California, per se, with her proposed boundaries,
or the abolition of the slave trade in the District
of Columbia, with the penalty annexed, by the
bill of the Committee of Thirteen, to wit: the
freedom of the slave—would be a gross and
flagrant violation of our constitutional rights.
t>th. Resolved, That we earnestly entreat our
Southern brethren of all political parties, to unite
with us in our efforts to repel the encroachments
of the North, for in our estimation, no political
evil can be so great as submission to tyranny.
After the reading of the resolutions, Jefferson
Noble, Esq., of Montgomery, was next intro
duced to the meeting, and spoke for one hour in
support of the resolutions, boldly and fearlessly
scourging alike the Northern Abolitionist and
Southern Submissionist.
Col. John Gill Shorter, of Eufaula, next came
forward and enchained the audience in atten
tive silence, in an address of great power and
eloquence. At the conclusion of his speech, the
resolutions were unanimously adopfed, amidst
the tumultuous applause of that vast con course
of people.
The following resolutions were also adopted:
Resolved, That this meeting recommend to
the different sections of Macon county, to send |
delegates from each beat, to meet at Tuskegee, j
on the last Saturday in this month, to make ar- j
rangements to be represented in the District
Convention, to assemble at Clayton on the first
Monday in September next, to elect a Delegate
to the Nashville Convention, to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the resignation, (from ill health,)
of Gen. It. C. Shorter.
Resolved, That this meeting tender to Gen.
Geo. W. G unn our sincere gratitude for the i
fidelity and ability with which he represented us
>in the late Nashville Convention, and that we
cordially request him to represent us again in
■eiid Convention, when it shall re-assemb!e.
The chair then announced to the meeting the
readiness of a bountiful barbecue which awaited
free discussion, and to whose merits the same
unanimity prevailed that characterized the pre
vious action of the meeting. But one sentiment
veemed to exist as to the great credit due to the
Committee of Arrangements, as well as the
fair hands” of “ Beauty fair,” which aided in
khe preparation of the sumptuous feast; and
Who graced the occasion with her smiles, proving
(in the language of J. Noble, one of the speak
ers,) the applicability to woman, of the Ameri
can sentiment respecting the great Washington,
that she is “first in war, first in peace and first
in the hearts of her countrymen.”
After the meeting was again called to order,
Dr. -Joseph Jones, of Barbour, responded to the
call of the meeting, in an able, argumentative
and masterly expose of the Clav Compromise.
He was followed by David Clapton, Esq., of!
Tuskegee, whose fervid and impassioned elo
quence was received with rapturous applause.
Next in order, came forth a youthful orator,
John Davis, who closed the exercises of the oc
casion in a neat, beautiful and patriotic speech.

WASHINGTON, August 13th, 1850.
I’. S. SEN ATE.—CALIFORNIA*
Mr. Douglas moved, and the Senate took up
the special order, being the biil to admit Califor
hia into the Union as a State.
The question was on reading the bill a third i
time.
Mr. Davis. of Mississippi, addressed the Sen- |
ate. He asked why was the impatience to pass i
this bill ? It was not for the purpose of giving a |
government to the people of California. The re- i
cords of Congress show that those who now !
were so clamorous to admit California, defeated \
every effort to give a government to California
at former sessions. But as soon as the consti
tution of California, containing the Wilmot pro
viso, which they had in vain endeavored to pass
Congress, was adopted, they desire to bring her
into the Union, against all precedent, and with
out proper deliberation. The South had re- ;
monstrated, but the remonstrance was disre- ‘
garded. And why did they desire to bring her
in ? It was known that the new State would be
and free-trade people, and those engaged in manu
factures and commerce could have no interest
in introducing California into the Union. It was
then a deliberate aggression upon the minority.
And this aggression wa§ the mode by which i
they showed their devotion to the Union. The ■
South had been excluded from all participation
in the territories belonging to them in common
with the North, and their appeals and remon
strances have been answered by invective and
the cry of disunionists. This was a constitutional
Union, and by preserving the constitution unim
paired in all its spirit, was the Union to be pre
served The South had ever observed the
Constitution, and thus had been the firmest
friends of the Union.
The right to resist an unconstitutional act was
undoubted : and if resistance to an unconstitu
tional act, an act having no foundation or author
ity upon the Constitution, but resting solely and
exclusively upon the will of a dominant majori
ty, was sedition and treason, then he entertained
both sentiments. They were now called upon,
for the first time, to destroy the balance existing
between the two sections of the country, in both
branches of Congress. In the temper of the
majority upon this measure, the probable tem
per of that majority towards the minority when
that minority shall be decided to be a minority
forever was foreshadowed. He had been in
structed by his State Legislature to resist this
bill. The Legislature of his State had appro
priated a large sum to be used by the Governor
in resistance to the Wilmot proviso; and in this
bill he saw nothing differing from that proviso.
Whether slavery were excluded by Congress, or
j by a band of unauthorized adventurers, having I
| no possible authority, made no difference; one j
was as aggressive as the other, and if there ;
1 were any difference, it would be in favor of the I
Congressional enactment.
lie appealed to the North to pause in their
action. The South were loyal to the Constitu
tion, and he warned the majority against tread
j fog too far upon the patience of a people already
alarmed, lie referred to their common ances- j
try, and the devotion of the South, in times !
! past, in defence of the North against wrong, j
; He appealed to them as Senators, countrymen, j
and brethren, to pause in this great act, and i
listen to the solemn warning of the consequences.
Mr. Clemens said that he desired to state !
i again the objections which should govern him
in voting against this bill. He knew the bill
would pass, and would confine himself to a
mere statement of the points of his objections.
He objected to the passage of this bill, because
: no census had ever been taken of the people,
and there was no evidence before the Senate
that at the time that constitution was adopted,
there was a .sufficient number of inhabitants, in
I the meaning of the Constitution, in the Territory,
j to entitle her to one Representative, much less
i two. Because no territorial government had
been established over the country by Congress.
Because no law had been passed by Congress
! authorizing the people there to call a convention
and frame a State constitution ; and, above all,
he opposed this bill, because the constitution of
California, which has been presented here, is
not the constitution of the people of that coun
try, but is the offspring of executive and mili
tary dictation. He had on a former occasion
stated these objections, and they had never
been answered. The only argument he had
heard against them was, the necessity of the
people of California to have a government, j
Who was responsible for the fact that California |
i had received no government? Was it the
.South? Certainly not. The Senator from
New York took the honor of defeating every
effort to give a government to California. Now
the same persons who defeated all efforts to !
give California a government clamor for her ad
mission, notwithstanding all the constitutional
objections. The acts of California are admitted
to be wrong, and will these two wrongs make a
right?
And now, because of the wrongs committed
by the North*upon California, the whole conse
quence is to be visited upon the South. Like
the incident told in the Senate a few days ago,
the South is brought to the edge of the preci
pice, and is about to be thrown down backwards,
not for her own wrongs, but for the wrongs
committed by those who now advocate the ad
mission of California.
He referred to some remarks made yesterday
by Mr. Cass, and replied to them, reading, as a
part of his reply, an extract from a speech made
hv that Senator two years ago on the Three
Million Bill.
He was not prepared to say what Alabama
would do if this act should be passed. He was
the servant of Ins State, and it was not his place
to direct her what to do. But whatever she
commanded him to do lie would do willingly.
If Alabama should resist this act, and com
manded him to resist, he would resist it by any
and every means which she should command
him to employ. If this were treason, then lie
was a traitor, and expected to remain one for
some time to come. He acknowledged no al
legiance to the General Government higher than
that lie owed to his own State. He would ob
serve his allegiance to his State, and that strictly.
He then contended that individuals, acting un
der the direction and command of their State
authority, properly expressed, were not amen
able to the other States as traitors. And when
the General Government undertook to treat
States as individuals, as was intimated in the
inte message of the President of the United
States, it would find that it had not to deal with
one State, but with fourteen.
There were several kinds of treason besides
that of open resistance to authority. He im
pugned no man’s motives who did not attack
his. But there were those who would sell their
souls to Satan to have a finger in President mak
ing, and in the construction of Cabinets, and
the consequent distribution of offices; there
were those who would sell the Saviour of the
world, if he were on earth, and who would be
satisfied with half the price which Judas received.
Mr. Houston followed in justification of his
conduct as a representative of Texas, as a re
presentative of a Southern State, in voting for
the hill adjusting the Texas boundary, and for
voting for this bill. lie, in the course of his
remarks, referred to the Southern convention,
as a surreptitious assemblage at Nashville, and
denied the right and authority of those present
at that convention to speak for the South, or to
dictate terms to Congress. He advocated a na
tional feeling, as preferable to a sectional one,
declaring that by such a feeling was he actuated,
and he urged that such should be the governing
principle of all.
Mr. Barnwell replied to that part of the re
marks of Mr. Houston in relation to the Nash
ville convention. He defended the character
and proceedings of the Nashville convention,
saying that he had been a member of the con
vention, and esteemed it as one of the chief
honors of his life. He then stated at large his
objections to the passage of this bill.
Messrs. Berrien and Ewing had an explana
tion in relation to some remarks made yesterday
by Mr. B. in regard to the alleged connexion
of the late Executive with the exclusion of
slavery by the constitution of California.
Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, replied to the re
marks of Mr. Houston upon the proceedings in
Mississippi in opposition to the admission of
California. He thought that the proceedings of
the Nashville convention, and its resolution
maintaining the title of Texas to the boundaries
of Texas, should have entitled it to kinder com
ments from the Senator.
Mr. Houston followed, and Mr. Davis again
replied, and Mr. Houston rejoined in respect to
j the proceedings in Mississippi leading to the
! call for the Nashville convention.
Mr. Cass read the extract from the speech
made by him on the Three Million bill, and
maintained that there was nothing inconsistent
in what he then said, and in his present position
on this bill.
After some remarks by Messrs. Atchison and
I Houston,
The question was taken on the passage of the
bill, and it was decided in the affirmative— j

tion,) said that a portion of the minority would,

CELEBRATED GERMAN BITTERS.
PREPARED BY
DR. C. M. JACKSON,
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
No. 120, Arch St., Philadelphia.
Their power over the above diseases is not excell
ed, if equalled, by any other preparation in the
L nited States, as the cures attest, in many cases
after skilful physicians had failed.
These Bitters are worthy the attention of invalids.—
Possessing great virtues in the rectification of diseases of
the Liver and lesser glands, exercising the most search
ing powers in weakness and affections of the digestive
organs, they are, withal, safe, certain and pleasant.
Read and he Convinced.
Chas. Robinson, Esq., Easton, Md., in a lotter to Dr.
Jackson, Jan. 9, 1850, said—
“My wife and myself have received more benfit from
your medicine than any ether we have ever taken for the
Dyspepsia and Liver disease.”
“The Tenth Legion,” published at Woodstock, Va.,
January 10, 1850, said—
“A Great. Medicine .”
“Wo have uniformly refrained from recommending to
the public any of the various patent medicines of the
day, unless thoroughly convinced of their value. —
Among those we consider worthy of notice is the
German Bitters, invented by Dr. Iloofland, and !
prepared by Dr. Jackson, in Philadelphia. One in
stance in particular, in which the superior virtues
of this medicine have been tested, has fallen under
our observation. During the last summer, a son of
Mr. Abraham Crabill, of this county, was very se
riously afHieted with Liver Complaint, and after trying
in vain various remedies, he purchased a bottle of the
Bitters, and after using it, was so much relieved of
his distressing malady, that he procured another bot
tle, and is restored entirely to health.”
Read Further a Few Facts.
The “Philadelphia Democrat,” the leading Ger
man journal of Philadelphia. The editor No
vember 24th :
“We again call attention to the removal of the
German Medicine Store, the principal depot for the
sale of Dr. Iloofiand’s German Bitters, from 278
Race to 120 Arch street, one door below Sixth.—
Owing to the increased demand for this medicine,
and for the accommodation of his numerous patients,
Dr. Jackson lias been compelled to occupy a larger
store. We wish him success in his new quarters ;
he is deserving it The Bitters Mixture is without
doubt the greatest medicine extant for diseases of the
Liver and Bowels. A stubborn case of Chronic
Diarrhoea has come under our notice, wherein the
patient had exhausted the Materia Medicas of the
different schools of medicine with no apparent benefit,
lie was induced to use these bitters, and a few bottles
of them have entirely cured him. Many such eases
we could refer to. Wc hope our readers will recol
lect this great restorative, should they be so unfortu
nate as to require its use. Dr. Jackson possesses the
original unpublished receipt of Dr. Iloofland, and
he prepares this medicine with oare. Those pur
chasing should call at his store, or see that his name
is written upon the wrapper outside, and blown in the
bottle, as imitations of good articles are common.”
Judge M. M. Noah, a gentleman with great sci
entific and literary attainments, said in his “New
York Weekly Messenger,” January 6, 1850:
“Dr. Honfland's German Bitters. — Here is a pre
paration which the leading presses in the Union ap
pear to be unanimous in recoinending, and the rea
son is obvious. It is made after a proscription furnished
by one of the most celebrated physicians of modern
times, the late Dr. Christopher Wilhelm Iloofland,
Professor to the University of Jena, Private Physician
to the Kingof Prussia, and one of the greatest medi
cal writers Germany has ever produced. lie was
emphatically the enemy of humbug, and therefore a
medicine of which he was the inventor and endorser
may be perfectly relied on. He specially recommend*
ed it in Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Vertigo,
Acidity of the Stomach, Constipation, and all com-j
plaints arising from a disordered condition of the
stomaoh, the liver and the intestines. Nine Philr.*
delpbia papers express tlieir conviction of its excel
lence, and several of the editors speak of its effects
from their own individual experience. Under these
circumstances, we feel warranted not only in calling
the attention of our readers to the present proprietor's
(Dr. C. M. Jackson's) preparation, but iu recom
mending the article to all afflicted.”
More Evidence.
The “Philadelphia Saturday Gazette,” the best
family newspaper published in the United States, the
editor says of
DR. HOOFLAND’S GERMAN BITTERS.
“ It is seldom that we recommend what are termed
Patent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of
our readers; and, therefore, when we recommend Dr.
lloofland’s German Bitters, we wish it to be distinct
ly understood that we arc not speaking of the nos
trums of the day that are noised about for a brief period
and then forgotten after they have done their guility
race of mischief, but of a medicine long established,
universally prized, and which has met the heatty ap
proval of the Faculty itself.”
Evidence upon evidence has been received (like
the foregoing) from all sections of the Union, the last !
three years, and the strongest testimony in its favor
is, that there is more of it used in the practice of the
regular Physicians of Philadelphia than all other nos
trums combined, a faet that can easily be established,
and fully proving that a scientific preparation will
meet with their quiet approval when presented even
in this form.
That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint and
Dyspepsia, no one can doubt, after using it as direct
ed. It acts specifically upon the stomach and liver—
it is preferable to calomel in all bilious diseases —the
effect is immediate. They can be administered to
FEMALE or infant with safety and reliable benefit, at
1 any lime.
Beware of Counterfeits.
This medicine has attained that high character
which is necessary for all medicines to attain to in
j duee counterfeiters to put forth a Spurious article at
1 the risk of the lives of those who are innocently de
’ ceivcd.
Look well to the Marks of the Genuine.
They have the written signature of C. M. JACK
SON upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the
bottle, ■without which they are spurious.

GREAT COUGH REMEDY!
AYER’S
them Pectoral.
*
FOR THE CURE OF
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Bronchitis, Whoop
ing-Coughs, Croup, Asthma and Consumption.
This truly valuable remedy for all diseases of the
lungs and throat, has become the chief reliance of the
afflicted as it is the most certain cure known for the
above complaints. While it is a powerful remedial
agent in the most desperate and almost hopeless cases of
Consumption, it is also, in diminished doses, one of the
mildest and most agreeable family medicines for com- j
mon coughs and colds. Read below the opinion of i
inen who are known to the world, and the world respect
their opinions.
From Professor Hitchcock.
James C. Ayer—Sir: I have used your “Cherry ]
Pectoral” in iny own case of deep seated Bronchitis,
and am satisfied from its chemical constitution that it is
an admirable compound for the relief of laryngial and
bronchial difficulties. li my opinion as to its superior
character can be of any service you arc at liberty to use
it as you think proper.
EDWARD HITCHCOCK, L, L. D.,
President of Amherst College.
From the “London Lancet
“Ayer's Ciierry Pectoral” is one of the most val
uable preparations that has fallen under our notice. Alter
a careful examination, we do not hesitate to say we have
a large appreciation of its meiits and the fullest confi
dence in its usefulness for coughs and lung complaints.”
Dr. Brewster, of Windham eo., Conn., sends us the
following testimony:
Dr. J. C. Ayer—Dear Sir: I enclose you a certificate
from Mrs. Catharine K. Cady, a highly respectable ladv
of this village, wile of Mr. Seth Cady, Deputy Sheriff,
Windham co., Conn. The cure in her case was very
prompt, and has attracted general attention. -

West Killingly, Ct., Sept. 28, 184S.
This may certify that I wa afflicted with a very severe
cough in the winter of ’47-8, which threatened to ter
minate in consumption. 1 had tried many medicines in
vain, and was cured by the use of “Ayer’s Cherry
Pectoral.” CATHARINE K. CADY.
Direct Evidence.
Dr. J. C. Ayer, Lowell—Dear Sir: Feeling under obli
gations to you for the restoration of my health, I send you
a report ot my case, which you are at liberty to publish
for the benefit of others. Last autumn I took a bad cold,
accompanied by a severe cough, and made use of many
medicines without obtaining relief. I was obliged to
give up business, frequently raised blood, and could get
no sleep at night. A friend gave me a bottle of your
Cherry Pectoral, the use of which I immediately
commenced according to directions. I have just pur
chased the fifth bottle, and am nearly recovered. I now
sleep well, my cough has ceased, and all by the use of
your valuable medicine. E. S. STONE, A. M.,

From Dr. Bryant, Druggist and Postmaster, Chicopee
Falls, Mass:
Dr. J. G. Ayer—Dear Sir: Enclosed please find re
mittance for all the Cherry Pectoral last sent me. I
can unhesitatingly say, that no medicine we sell gives
such satisfaction as your’s docs ; nor have I ever seen a
medicine which cured so many cases of cough and lung
complaints. Our physicians are using it extensively iu
their practice, and with the happiest effects.
Truly yours, D. M. BRYANT.

Columbus, August 1. 1850.
Dr, Willcox’s Sarsaparilla,
IS decidedly the best Medicinal Extract for the cure
of all diseases arising from an impure state of the
blood, nnd other fluids, that has ever been brought
before the public. The following are a few of the com
plaints in which the, power of this extraordinary Com
pound has been displayed, viz :
Scrofula, Salt Rheum , Fever Sores , Piles, Scald
Head, Pimples on the Face, and Body, Liver Com
plaint,, Rheumatism, Consumption, Erysipelas,
Cancers , Ulcers, and all Mercurial Diseases.
It is also a certain evire tor
Indigestion or Dyspepsia and General Debility ,
and is especially valuable for
Female Complaints.
The origin of all diseases, it will undoubtedly he ad
mitted, arises from impurities of the blood and fluids
generally, or the action of morbid causes upon both flu
ids and solids—and whatever remedy will restore the
physical functions to a healthy state, and carry off the
corrupt matter which impregnates the blood and other
fluids, must necessarily be ot great interest to mankind.
Many of the medicines now iti use are wanting in
their sanitary effects, in consequence of the absence of
some essential article, or an injudicious combination of
the ingredients used.
Against this medicine no such charge exist 3 . While it
does all that other Extracts of Sarsaparilla are said to
perform, i; accomplishes what they leave undone.
Penetrating and Purifying the Blood
is only a part of its office ;
I The Secretions of the Fluids Generally are Pro
moted by it,
and tho internal muscular action relieved from that slug
gishness, which frequently lays the foundation of that
distressing complaint, generally known under the name'of
Indigestion.
Its effect on the solids is such as to give to each part of
tho muscular system that wholesome relaxation by
which the blood is enabled to extend its circulation free*
ly, leaving the extremities as well supplied with life as
those parts least exposed to exterior changes.
The disfigured appearance of many of the human fam
ily by
Tumors, Abscesses, Swellings, Glandular and Cu
taneous affections,
may be attracted to the inactivity of the organs where
those affections occur. As the fungus makes its appear
ance in decaying vegetable matter, so do Tumors pre
! sent themselves on the human frame whenever the ani
mation of its parts is partially suspended. This medi
cine, then, by its singular and peculiar action on the
solids, is eminently calculated to afford relief when, j
without it, the scalpel would hasten the patent to a pre- 1
mature grave.
This Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, •
In Chronic Constipation,
Quietly.insinuates itself through, and purifies the fluids,
relaxes the solids, and without draining the sufferer of j
his energies, restores a healthy and permanent vital ac- ;
tion. *
In Rheumatic Complaints,
Its virtues are incomparable. The nervous system,
which, in these derangements, is deprived of its equili
brium, yields its negative action, assumes the positive,
and supplies the blood with that assistance in its arterial
transit which, in endeavoring to make, before caused i
pain and inflammation. THERE IS SCARCELY i
CHRONIC AILMENT which may notbe greatly ‘
relieved, and in most eases, entirely cured, by a judicious I
and well-timed use of this remedy’
Nervous Diseases
and
Female Complaints ,
The most gratifying results have been effected. In
such cases, if taken as set forth in the directions, this i
remedy will be found in reality an IN VIGOR ATOR ■
AND, AS IT WERE, A LIFE-RESTORER. I
To go through with the whole list of human ills is not j
the design of this circular. The principle of the medi- i
cinal effect in eases for which this Sarsaparilla is a eer- i
tain cure, is all that is intended to be shown, and all that
is necessary to be known, to ensure its universal use. !
