THE ILUU TIMES.
THURSDAY, OBTOBER 21.
The Supreme Court.
In our issue of the 13th inst., we published the
action of an adjourned public meeting in Coweta
county, in reference. t< the. above subject, and ap*
ponded thereto a brief comment. Our remarks
have been construed by our friend of the Corner
Stone into a reflection upon the intelligence of all
who are in favorof abolishing the Supreme Coun.
We admit that wc did not guard our. jives against
such inference, hut such was not the thought to
whieli we gave expression. It was understood
by us that this meeting originated in a
tiou witli a recent j odgment of the Supreme Court,
about which so much has been said and wiitten.
Believing and, indeed, knowing that the masses
havo not taken the time or trouble to’ascertain’ the
correctness of the’ legal ptopositions which that
judgment declared, cand it is manifest that such in
vestigation must be the basis of any just or in
telligent censure) we have uniformly deprecate and
all popular demonstrations on this subject. It
was in reference to this fact that wc intended an
application of the charge of kr.ow-nothing-ism,
though, as we have said, our word* had a wider
and more general meaning. Upon the subject of
abolishing the Court, we occupy a position at a
great distance from our cotemporary, whether in
advance or in roar of his own, we do not say. But
this radical difference will not prevent us from be
ing instructed by hi3 opinions; at any rate, we
hope never to lose our respect for his acknowl
edged intelligence and matured wisdom.
A Just Tribure.
Tho coalition of Republicans, Ameiicans and the
Douglas Democrats have just won a victory over
the Democracy in Pennsylvania. The New York
Tribune —a notorious abolition sheet, thu3 speaks :
“L9tus not misstate nor overstate this triumph.
The republicans have nobly contributed to it, but
they havo not alone achieved it. The great body
efthe Americans have heartily co-operated with
them, and the elaborate attempt to draw off votes
on‘straight American’ tickets in Philadelphia has
had little effect. The union for free territory, pure
elections, and protection to home industiy, was
too hearty and solid to bo shaken by the tricks of
demagogues bought and owned by the common
adversaiy.
“But the Republicans and Americans united
could not have won so sweeping a victory with
out the powerful aid of the Douglas Democracy.
Those faithful devotees of the doctrine of popular
sovereignly, organized and led by John W. For
ney, had resolved to punish the recreants who de*
vised and urged on the Lecompton fraud, and
they have done it most effectually.”
Prof. Wm. J. Sasnett, D. D.
By tho Board, which met in ibis city tho 15th
inst., (says the Atlanta Intelligencer,) this distin
guished gentleman was circled President of the
LaGrango Female College, which is one of the
first Female Colleges in the Union. The Trustees
have been in this case extremely fortunate in se
curing Prof. Sasoett as President of tho College.—
llis fame and name are well and widely known
throughout this country as one of the most able and
distinguished among the literati of the present ago.
Asa Professor, as a Scholar and writer, Dr. Sas
nett will grace the highest Collegiate positions
which the country can boast.
LaGrange College and its /reads everywhere
may now have greater cause than ever, to be proud
of their Institution and hopeful for a bright and
glorious career of usefulness and honor. With
such a Faculty and such an able and distinguished
President, no College has greater claims and
brighter prospects.

—A cotemporary says it is just about

courting as to do business without advertising.
Republicans and Americans of New
York city have agreed to fuse upon county offi
cers to be balloted for at the ensuing election.—
Committees of conference from these parties met
at the Westchester House, on Thursday evening,
and agreed upon a plan which gives to the Repub’
Jicansthe Sheriff, Justice of' t the Superior Court,
Supervisor, and two Coroners, while to the Amer
icans are conceded the nominees tor county Clerk,

Wo are indebted to the kindness of a friend lor
permis-Mon to make'the following extract Irom a j
letter written by Maj. A. B Ragan, U. S. A., to a i
member ofhis lamily in this Stnte:
Fort Vancouver, Washington Territory,
September 7th, 1853.
The Mountain Buck brings news this .norniog
of another engagement which a portion of Maj.;
Garnett’s command had with the YaMmahs.— j
Lieutenant Crook with sixty men, attacked a
large party of Indians, killing six and wounding
an indefinite number, without the loss of a single
man, Another party of Indians were heard of,
and Capt, Fraser sent alter them, but they got no
tice of his movement and decamped in haste;
Capt. Fraser pursued them three da>s, but finally
lost their trail and had to give up the pursuit.
Maj Garnett thinks the hostiles are now cleared
outofthe Simeocaod Yakimah countiy, and have
made the best of their way to the Black Feet coun
try in the Rocky Mountains and into the British
possessio s. Maj. G.irnett has pushed forward to
Okenagan, where he will probably form a junc
tion with Col. Wright’s command against the
Spokans and Pel loose, or else whip them out on
his own account, should he not meet with Col.
Wright.
Nothing has been heard from Col. Wright since
he crossed Snake River on the 24th ult The pre
sumption, therefore is, tint the Indians have burned
the grass to embarass and retard his movements
and retire to the mountains. If he had had any
engagement ho would have sent an express with
despatches to Gen. Clark at this place, 1 believe,
after all the great demonstrati ms by the Indians,
the whole thing will turn out nothing more than a
grand Indian hunt, a good many will.be caught in
the chase, and the rest will he trailed to their dens
and holes in the mountains, early in the Spring,
and dragged out. [Signed]

Battle with the Camanches. — St Louis, Oct. 15.
The Salt Lake mail arrivod at St. Joseph on the
9th, The troops had nearly completed their huts,
and would go into winter quarters on the 15th of
Oct.
The Fort Smith (Ark.) Times Extra of the Bth
contains a letter from Lt. Powell, dated Fort Ar
buckle 2d, giving an account of a battle between
a detachment of the 2d Cavalry and the Caman
cho Indians, near Wichita Village, on the Ist, in
which Lt, Vancamp and four men were killed, and
Maj. Vanclan and ten men wounded. Forty of
the Camanches were killed.
Eelections.
PENNSYLVANIA.
Reading, Oct. 15.—Schwartz’s majority over J.
Glancy Jones is nineteen votes. Schwarfz has
7,321 and Jones 7,302 votes This is the official
vote as returned by the Judges.
lowa. —The few returns thus far received havo a
strongly Democratic complexion, and give reason
to iiopo that one, if not both the Democratic can
didates for Congress, is elected. In the pre:3nt
Congress both members are Republicans.
Indiana.— The Democrats have elected four
members, viz; Niblack,(or Hovey,) English, Hol
man and Davis ; being a loss of two as compared
with the present Congress. The Republicans
carry the other districts.
Our information leads us to think that the Re
publicans have carried the State ticket (no Gov
ernor is elected this year) and a small majority of
the House, while a majority of the Senate is prob
ably Democratic.
California.— The now Senate of California
comprises 24 Democrats, 10 Opposition g*en. and
there is one vacancy. House—Democrats 54,
Opposition 20. Joint ballot, Democrats 78, Op
position 30.
Ohio. —ln addition to six Democratic members
whose election is conceded, viz : Pendleton, Val
landigham, Allen, Howard, Martin and Cox, the
telegraph claims only sixteen majority for Carey
over Hall, Dem., in the 9th district, “unofficial.”
Perhaps the official returns may place the saddle
on the other horse. It also says the contest in the
sth district is “very close” between Burns, Dem.,
and Ilelmiek, Rep., though “it is generally sup
posed that Burns is defeated.” The Ohio States
man ot the 14th, also claims the election of B. F.
Spriggs, Dem., in the 17th district. There is
therefore a chance that the Democrats of Ohio will
come up to their number in the present Congress,
which was nine out of twenty-one members.
Florida.—A private letter from a friend in Tal
lahassc 3, who has access to tho election returns,
informs us that “Judge Hawkins’(Dem.) majority
over Westcott will be 2500 votes-about 1000 more
than was ever given to any man in the State.”—
Thus it will be seen, while there is a union of Re
publicans and Americans at the North to defeat
the Democracy, it is gaining strength at the South
and rallying to its standard tho true men of all
parties.
The Sunset Land.
Oh. d'mly through the mists of years.
That roll their dreary waves betwr 3n,
The gorgeous Sunset Land appeals,
Arrayed in hues of fadeless green.
And irom the far-off sunny clime,
Old half-forgotten aiise,
And stealing o’er the waves of Time,
The sweetly lingering mu ic dies.
As some bright island of the sea,
Forever blooming —ever f?>r;
Tho’ cold, dark billows round it be,
Eternal sunshine hovers there.
Thus o’er the silent sea of yeais,
Our eager, longing looks are cast,
Where robed in fadeles s Spring appears,
The sunlit Eden of the Past.
There Memory weaves her garlands green,
Beside the lone, hope haunted shore;
And musing ’mid the Arcadian scene,
Twines flowers that bloom for us no more.
Oh! hallowed clime ! blest Land of Love !
Sweet Paradi. 3 of early dreams !
Still through thy vales my fancy rove^
Still back beneath thine evening l earns.
And there they dwell—those cherished ones,
With snow white brows and waving hair ;
I see them now—l hear their tones
Of sweetne-s sigh along the air.
Hark ! how their silvery voices ring
In cadence with the wind’s low sigh ;
Not sweeter is the wind-harp’s suing,
That wakes at eve its melody.
They call us now ; they wave their hands—
As by the mirage lifted high,
That clime in all its beauty stands
Against the forehead of the sky.
With wreathed brows —with laugh and song—
With tender looks—hand clasped in hand—
Thev moved along, that love-linked throng—
Within the haunted Sunset Land.
A Singular Incident. —The Petersburg
Express relates the following:
While a horse belonging to a country
man was standing on Old Street, near
Sycomore, yesterday evening, a dog pass
ed underneath him, and received a kick,
which completely mashed in his skull,
killing him instantly. The owner of the
horse soon after left’ the city, but had not
proceded far before the horse fell and ex
pired. Upon examination, his left hind
foot, with which he had kicked the dog,
was found to contain a piece of bone sere.
ral inches in length, apparently part of the
dog’s jawbone, buried in thejvery quick or
tenderest part of the hoo£ He had died
of tetanus.
IJon. H. V. Johnson.
The Atlanta Intelligencer pays the fol
lowing high and mefited tribute to ex-Gov
Johnson, lt is not overdrawn or more
than just;
“Who is not proud of such a man ns
Hersche! V. Johnson —the man of golden
purpose and iron will,” as the Georgia Plat
form designates him? Who lias been more
conspicuous in every fight for twenty
years in Georgia? Who has fallen and
risen with the Democratic party in storm
and sunshine—in adversity and prosperity,
if Herschel V. Johnson has not? His voice
has been always heard to rally the broken
columns and the discouraged hosts when
the battle raged the hottest and the fierc
est. The democracy love him. His very
name is a tower of strength.
‘‘The World owes me a Living.”
For native simplicity, good sense and
manliness the Indians have ever been re
markable, and until the introduction of
“fire water ” and the degradation of the white
man’s vices, thev were never known to play
the loafer. Under the above caption the
Cayuga Chief holds the following talk.
Every loafer should read it attentively.
“World owes you a living?” That’s false,
sir! It doesn’t owe you a farthing. You
owe the world for the light of its days, the
warmth of its sunshine, the beauty of its
earth and sky, and for its love, affections,
and friendships, which have from your child
hood, young man, clustered around and
clung to your worthless trunk.
For all these, and other blessings of
countless numbers, you are a debtor. You
have never even thanked God for health
and life. You never made the w r orld better
for your living. You owe for the breath,
and for the strength you enjoy. You haven’t
anything to your credit on the day book or
ledger or life—not a cent . You have nev
er taken a dollar’s stock in heaven. Were
you to-day to sink to oblivion, you would
not leave a single bubble.
The world owes you a living! Where is
there a manly thought uttered, or a noble
deed performed—where are there evidences
of your labor? Nowhere. Y r ou drink, gam
ble, and chew tobacco, but never earned
your board. Yon have degraded ourcom
on manhood, instead of ennobling and ele
vating it, and in nothing but the form and
vulgar speech are you above the brutes
that perish. And because you are too lazy
to work you claim that the world owes you
a living.
Don't tell me that lie again, you sluggard.
The world or society would not suffer
loss were lightining to stnke you, or the
cholera to taite you off There are too many
such. Y'ou are a sponge swollen with what
you have absorbed from society. l r ou dwatf
ed the intellect given you, and neglected the
endowments it would have brought you.
The tobacco you have chewed lias only
defiled everything around you, and tho
liquor you have drank hasonlybeen adul
terated by your miserable nature, and been
turned into rowdyism and profanity. You
contaminate every thing you touch, and
even those like you, will keep their chil
dren from the leprosy of your teaching
and example.
No, sir, you owe the world a better life.—
Do and say something noble and manly;
labor for some honorable purpose, and not
inhale God’s pure air for nothing.
A Lawyer’s Story.— -Tom strikes Dick
over the shoulders with a rattan as big as
your little finger. A lawyer in his indict
ment would tell you the story as follows:
“And that whereas the said Thomas, at the
said place, on the year and day aforesaid,
in and upon the body of the said Richard,
against the people of the State of Pennsyl
vania, and their dignity, did make a most
violent assault, and inflicted a great many
and divers blows, kicks, cuffs, thumps,
contusions,gashes, hurts, wounds, damages
and injuries, in and upon the head, neck,
bieast, stomach, bins, knees, shins, and
heels of said Richard, with divers slicks,
canes, poles, clubs, logs of wood, stones,
daggers, dirks, swords, pistols, cutlasses,
bludgeons, blunderbusses, and boarding
pikes, then and there “held in the hands, fists,
claws, and clutches ofhira, the said Thom
as.”
Scphomore Class in Brown University
Suspended. —For years it has been the
custom of the Sophomore Class of Brown
University, to “Smoke out Freshtren;” [ie]
at the commencement of each year to enter
the rooms of Freshmen and smoke till they
became sick, or acknowledge themselves
sick of the operation. The custom was
adhered to bv the present Sophomore class
who “did the work up Brown” Weeks
have elapsed and nothing was said of the
course pursued. Monday afternoon, how
ever, one by one were called upon to visit
the President. The following questions
were asked, First—“ Was you engaged in
smoking out ?” Second—“ Will you sign
an agreement never to engage in anything
of the kind again?” Many were enabled
to say “No,” in reply to the first question,
but all declined to answer “yes” to the se*
cond. Each was, in consequence dismissed
from College. The class is united in the
determination not to be fettered by the
stringent regulations necessarily imposed
upon them by an affirmative to the second
query. And, consequently, Brown Univer
sity is without a Sophomore Class, a a cir
cumstance without a parallel in the history
of that institution.— Prov. Journal.
Jonathan's Love for the Negro Illustra
ted.—There is a case now before the Uni
ted States District Court at Boston, Mass,
in which it is charged that a negro cook
on board of a whaler was tieated with
shocking barbarity by a yankee crew.—
On several occasions he was brutally bea
ten, his eye was knocked out by the mate
of the ship, and the poor creature was
subsequently kept in irons until he was
eventually landed, without food, on a de
sert rock of ths Galapagos Islands, about
seven hundred miles from the coast of Pe
ru, and there abandoned to his fate by the
humane and tender hearted yankee cap
tain and cr<*w. He has lived twenty-six
days on raw crabs, sun-baked lizards,young
birds and beatle bugs, when he was taken
by a friendly sail, and carried to Talcahuna
where he remained in hospital seven and a
half months before he recovered sufficient
ly to travel home. Such is the love for
the negro race as practiced by Jonathan—
his professions are quite another thing.—

HAIR RESTORATIVE.
How to Preserve Beauty. —Nothing is more
becoming to a man or woman, than a beautiful
and luxuriant head of hair, and a woman’s beau
ty is certainly incomplete without a fair complex
ion, and he or she who neglects these great and
important adornments of nature must expect to
suffer the mortification of premature baldness, and
a wrinkled face and a sallow skin. Nothing is
necessary to preserve these essential attractions
but the use of Prolessor Wood’s Restorative.—

Prof. Wood’s, and alter thoroughly testing its
