1: THIBSKAT, KOVEMBER 15, MM. Thanksgiving. Gratitude is a sentimeut universally diffused through all the ranks of animated na.ure. The satisfaction of their material wants exacts it even from the inferior orders of the animal creation, and we hardly need the exaggeration of poetry to teach us that the care we bestow upon the tender plant, in forest or garden, is rewarded, in obedience to this principle, by the luscious autumn fruit or the breezy summer shade. Certainly, it is one of the elements and instincts of humanity. Original, spontaneous, we cannot suppress its promptings even in response to the common kindness of a friend. We look for its exhibition on all proper occasions with such assured confidence, that its absence fills us with mingled feelings of disgust and horror. He who can be the recipient of anoth er’s bounty, without being warmed and exhilarated by the stirrings of this noble sentimeut, is degrad ed beneath the contempt of the virtuous and the good. Bereft of it, man would be selfish, grovel ling and cruel, without an object beyond tbe grat ification of his sensual appetites, and society, if we •could imagine its existence, would be cold, dull, motionless. But it is not only in the individual and personal life of man, that occasion and scope are found for the development and exercise of this principle. his ,social und iifitionu.l existence presents its amplest opportunity and sublimest re cognition. Pensions, honors and knightly deco rations, representatives of the gratitude of kings, reward the achievements of heroic effort and dis ciplined valor, while patriotic self-devotion and sacrifice in the cause of liberty and truth evokes universal sympathy, and unresistingly commands the grateful homage of the brave and good. If such be our disposition towards human benefac tors, with what overflowing gratitude should we, as a nation, acknowledge the kindness and pro tection of Him whose kingdom is above our king dom—who reigns above the cedars and the stars. Surely, no people on the earth has greater cause for thanksgiving than ourselves. Our domestic and inter-national relations arc those of peace.— The present has been a year of unusual, if not un precedented, prosperity, with all our industrial pursuits. The blistered hand of honest labor may, for a season, wear the glove of purchased rest. The agriculturist, the merchant, the me chanic, the artisan, each rejoices in his abundant reward, and the canvass-winged messengers of our lucrative commerce return, laden with the riches of every clime. Let us not indulge the fa tal delusion, that all these blessings are the bene factions of chance, and have no connection with the Divine appointments. He, who watches the flight of the sparrow and counts the hairs of our heads, who caters for the worm and bids the wild flower reveal its glories to the toiling bee—surely He, is not indifferent to the aims and destinies of nations. Let us, then, declare a truce, for to-day, to the strife for wealth and honor and go up to His temple, to render our devout acknowledgements for His manifold favors. Let the steeples of our churches treiuble with the “brazen passion,” and, as the earnest, mystic music floats upon the morn ing air, let it summon us to thanksgiving and holy meditation. Senator Douglas’ Ovation at Washington. We see, says the Charleston Mercury, that a subscription list is being handed round in Wash ington, to commemorate, by’ a suitable entertain ment, the triumph of Senator Douglas in Illinois. We published, some time since, the statements of Mr. Isaac 11. Sturgeon, as to an interview sought by Mr. Douglas, last winter, with Frank P. Blair, Jr., the black republican representative in Con gress from the city of St. Louis, Missouri, after he had manifested his treachery to the democratic party and the South on the Kansas issue. Those in the South who had supported Douglas, were rather dumb as to this new testimony, or denied that it was true. Tho fact that the New York Tribune and Senator Seward supported the re election of Douglas, we should suppose would have been quite sufficient to satisfy any Southern man that they must have had satisfactory assurances from Douglas to justify their support, and there fore that nothing was more probable than the statements of Mr. Sturgeon. Douglas, it seems, denied their truth, and this has brought out the letter from Mr. Blair, we publish below. The let ter proves him a regular abolitionist in combina tion with the aboiitionists of Missouri, plotting the substitution of Mr. Green, in the Senate by an abo litionist, and the emancipation of the slaves in Missouri. This is the man whom Gov. Wise, in a patriotic spasm of enthusiasm, mourned over the fetters which bound him to Virginia, and disabled him from going to aid in Illinois, and Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, denounced the Administra tion for not upholding as guilty of “wicked fool ishness.” If such are the i cise friends of the South, where are her enemies? DOUGLAS AND THE BLACK REPUBLICANS. Sir: A statement appeared in the Jefferson Examiner, of recent date,-making certain grave charges against Judge Douglas, in which my name was involved. Up to this period certain consid erations forbade my making any response, al though I have been frequently urged to do so. I learn since, however, from the Senator’s speech, delivered at Boonviile, Illinois, that he denies the truth of those assertions, and at other times and other places he reiterates the denial, and to give it an apparent sincerity, he indirectly calls for the proof. I deem that I am now at liberty to state all that I know in relation to this matter, which has taken hold upon the public mind. Ist. It is true that Judge Douglas did send me a message by Mr. Colfax, of Indiana, in substance the same as that charged upon him by the Exami ner, viz : “Tell Mr. Blair to come and see me ; I wish to give him James S. Green’s place in the United States Senate.” 2d. It is true that I did write a letter to B. Gratz Brown, Esq., of St. Louis, and that that letter was written in accordance with the wishes of Judge Douglas himself. 3d. And it is true, that there was an under standing, perfect and complete, between Judge Douglas and several prominent members of the republican party, the aim and scope of which I am not obliged to divulge. My personal interview with the distinguished Senator, to which his mes sage to me referred, had reference to the success of the Emancipation Party in Missouri. I have stated enough to substantiate the charg es made public through the columns of the Exami ner, and repeated in a letter from the pen of Isaac H. Sturgeon, Esq., of St. Louis: and, bearing in mind what had transpired at the interview between Judge Douglas and myself, and the understand ing arrived at and agreed upon between him and other prominent members of the republican party, both in the East and in the West, I confess that'l was not prepared to hear of the Senator’s demon stration of joy over my defeat in thia district. Very respectfully, FRANK P. BLAIR, J*. MILLEDGEVILLE CORRESPONDENCE. Mili.edgevillf., Nov. 23. Messrs. Editor s — In the house to-day, there was an animated discussion upon the subject of appointing a committee to locate the site fora University, which consumed themorning. In the Senate, the question of .striking out the provision in the Constitution, preventing the im portation of Africans was discussed with much ability—Messrs. Atkinson, Billups Slaughter, and Whitaker advocating the erasure of so objec tionable a clause in our coustitution, and Messrs. Thomas, Paine, Spalding, Tucker, and Reynolds speaking in the negative. Without disparaging the efforts of any of these gentlemen, we cannot but commend thee speech of Mr. Slaughter of Dougherty, as the most able of any we have heard in this branch of the General Assembly. He re viewed the whole question;showing the sentiments of our fathers towards slavery when this clause was inserted; the object it had in view at that time; that we could not defend the title of our property in slaves without defending tbe slave trade; that the clause was inoperative and void as it stood; that there should not be a Con stitutional restriction against the trade; that the question had nothing to do with the policy of re opening the Slav e trade. The debate occupied the whole day, and was finally settled by a vote of 46 ayes to 47 nays—not a constitutional ma jority. The Governor’s Levee comes off to-morrow ev ening. Among the visitors here are the Hou’bls; L. Q. C. Lamar of Mississippi; 31. J. Crawford, James Jackson, and Henry R. Jackson. C. From the N. O. Picayune, 21st. Arrival of the Steamship Quaker City, South-West Pass, Nov. 20. The Tehuantepec Company’s steamship Qua ker City, Capt. Shuffieldt, from Minatitlan, has arrived. She brings advices from tbe Isthmus of Tehuan tepec of the 17th, and the California mails of the sth instant. The trip to California. —The trip from New Orleans to San Francisco can be made in less than twelve days easily. The Isthmus Route. —Everything is pro gressing favorably on the Isthmus. All but twenty five miles at this end of the road is in good running order for coaches. Mules are yet used from Suchil to Almoyola, and coaches are on tbe road thence to Ventosa. - All who have passed over the Istraus are char med with the scenery on the route. There are twenty coaches running on the Isth mus. The Civil War with Mexico. —The Liberal party still have possession of the Isthmus, not withstanding the intrigues of the Zuloagistas. Six of the Zuloagistas were publicly shot at Tehuantepec, on the morning of the 6th inst. The Liberals, in Tabasco, are still uppermost. They have taken the small war steamship Guer rero from the Zuloagistas. California. —The advices from San Francisco are to the sth instant. There had been heavy rains. The weather was cold, ana there was snow on the mountains. Business in California was reviving. The United States Circuit Court had granted an injunction forbidding the New Almaden Quick silver Mining Company working the mines.— These mines are claimed by the United States, arevalufed at ten millions of dollars, and yield an annual income of one million. A suit had been instituted in the United States ! District Court against the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, for carrying an excess of passengers in their vessels. Damages laid at $136,000. The Fraser river adventurers from California, were fast returning to the golden State. A society had been formed for the encourage ment of the emigration of Spanish Amercans from California to Sonora in Mexico. The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Times says that “the Treasury Department is en gaged in collecting facts and figures from vari ous custom houses, bearing upon the relative mer its of the alternative systems of specific and ad valorem duties. For instance, the New York custom house is called upon to state what rate of specific duties on various staple articles would be equivalent to the ad valorem duty now collected on the same. Some of the most experienced offi cers of the customs are beginning to urge the adoption by the United States Government of the British system of combining specific with ad valorem duties. Take for example, two shawls, one costing five dollars and the other five hund red dollars. The [system would levy a specific duty of (say) two dollars upon each shawl, and to that sum add ad valorem duty be sides. It is claimed that this system would be more equal than any other and secure more reve nuc.” Trout House. We observe that Thos. Gannon, late proprietor of the Trout House, in Atlanta, has retired from that establishment, and is succeeded by Dr. J. D. Boyd, well known front his connection with the Charleston Hotel. We have found Mr. Gannon a most obliging landlord, and we wish him suc cess in whatever pursuit he may engage. The Trout House is favorably located, and a well con structed hotel, and we have no doubt, Dr. Boyd will find it a profitable business. From Utah. —The New York Times has from its correspondent, a week's later news from Utah. Specie having been nearly all withdrawn from circulation in the Territory, the Tithing Offiee has accumulated an immense store of grain, the Mormons having paid their tithes in that com modity. News had been received at the camp of the army of a tragedy enacted at Los Angelos, between twelve deserters from the army. Three of the men, led on by one Burns, formerly of the Tenth Infantry, had murdered the other nine in order to get possession of their money. Burns then proceeded to cut the throats of his two ac complices, one of whom died. The other surviv ed, and gave evidence which led to the arrest of the murderer. Thanksgiving. —Thursday was observed as a day of thanksgiving and prayer in the States of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, by ap pointment of their several Executives. The great body of the States will, however, unite in observ ing the 25th inst. Of these there are 23 in all, besides tbe District of Columbia. They are : Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island. Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, North I aroliua. South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, Miss issippi, J lorida, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, M tseonsin, Illinois, Michigan, lowa, Ohio, Min nesota, Indiana, Washington, D. C. Thanksgiv ing in Vermont takes place on the 2d of Decem ber. There are but five States in which appoint ments bate not yet been made, viz., Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Texas and Virginia. Medary, of Ohio, has signi fied his willingness to accept the Governorship of Kansas, which was tendered him a week ago, A Prediction. One of the coolest and closest observers of politi cal auguries writes us the following from Charles ton South Carolina: “I wish you to record this opinion dow in 1858, and compare it with the facts to be evolved be tween this and 1864. The Southern League has not yet defined its plan of action or its ultimatum; but whatever else it does or demands, it will finally come to this pi ogramine. The existing slave trade laws will be declared what they really are, unconstitutional and void, and the inherent right of each sovereign State left to decide for itself what class of laborers it will admit or reject, or the Southern States will withdraw from the Union. “I also predict that the disruption will -be effac ed in the way suggested by the late Senator Rusk. Supposing the question of State Rights to be de cided in Congress against the South on any dis tinct issue in which the sense of the Southern people-can be relied upon, all her Representatives in Congress shall withdraw from the Capitol in a body, and take with them the Southern members of the Cabinet, and thus leave Congress without a quorum for business, and the Executive with a mutilated corps of advisers. This was General Rusk’s plan for dissolving the existing Govern ment, and forcing upon the sectionalists of the Nort h the onus of coming some distance and mak ing war on Southern ground, if they attempted to conquer the Southern States back to the Union by down right force. “On the ultimatum of leaving to each State the exercise of her sovereign right to permit or pro hibit the traffic in African laborers, the South will show a united front by 1864, and its Representa tives will be forced to withdraw in mass from the halls of Congress if the North votes it down when the case is fairly put for the repeal of the uncon stitutional ‘slave-trade act/ ” This startling position might he passed by without notice, did we not see these ideas surging up with a steadily increasing sharpness through out the Southern States. This is the reaction of Northern intervention in the social conditions of the South, and it may yet tell disastrously on the manufacturing and com mercial sections of the ( lion. W e see the mut terings of the coniine -.uim in the bitter comments of the Southern pro* on the absurdity of employ ing our navy at tin behest of England to suppress the slave-trade, \v ileshe is importing coolies and France Africans, t) create rival empires of pro duction on our borders, and no one can foretell the final result of this deep discontent.— Washing ton States. The Devastation and Buzzard. By a Singular coincidence, H. B. M/s war steamers Devastation and Buzzard, which are now detailed to co-operate with our naval force before San Juan to intercept “any considerable body of Americans who may attempt to emigrate to Nica ragua,” are the very vessels that were sent down in 1854 by 11. B. M/s Government to forbid the Dominicans making a treaty with the United States. The Jamaica papers announced at that time that the errand of the Devastation was to “pro hibit any arrangements between the Dominican Republic and the United States by which that greedy and grasping Republic should secure a naval station in the central and commanding Bay of Samana.” It was intimated, at the same time, that Mr. Marcy, then Secretary of State, had receded from the Monroe doctrine, and the result proved that the British colonial press was better informed than our own people on that head, for the French and British ministers here forced him to abandon the Cazneau treaty, which gave us a coal depot and mail station, while those powers forced upon the Dominican Government the “protocol of 1854,” by which Americans were, and ape, virtually ex cluded from tlie Dominican soil. The Isthmus policy of 1858 is the simple and inevitable sequence of our recreancy in the Do minican question of 1854; and of our weak sub mission to the Anglo-Costa Rican seizure of the Nicaragua Transit In 1856. While the pro-English party in Congress is strong enough to suffocate investigation, and vote down the demands of the Executive for power to redress such grievous w’rongs, they will be persis ted in, and the piratical Devastation and foul Tur key Buzzards of England, will continue to prey upon American interests.— II r ashington States. The types played some extraordinary pranks last week. They brought up the Wave from Apa lachicola with a heavy freight on only three and a half inches water, when she was thought to have done remarkably well in making the trip on that number of feet. They also made Gov. Hammond a Senator from North Carolina. We should be quite resigned ourself to his being transferred even farther north than that, but such a change how ever unobjectionable in itself, the types had no right to make, at least without consulting the Legislature of the good old north State. [Eu/aula Spirit of the South. How Fugitive Slaves are Sustained in Canada. —lt is reported by the Londonderry (Ireland) Journal, of the 27th October last, that the “Londonderry Dorcas Association,” (compos ed of ladies) sent over to Canada, recently, a large quantity of clothing for the fugitive slaves from the United States, and will shortly renew the sup ply- Cotton in Texas. —The reports from the inte rior indicate heavy frosts in all parts of the State, and the planters are now busy saving their last pickings in the cotton field. Although recent storms have destroyed a good deal of unpicked cotton, yet the loss does not appear to be a serious one, and we yet put our figures at three-quarters of a full crop, or very nearly an average crop for the whole State. In some portions of Eastern Texas, not more than a third to a half a bale to the acre has been secured, while in others the av erage crop is above half a bale. In the central and southern regions, within a hundred and fif ty miles of tbe Gulf, the range is from two-thirds of a bale to a lull bale to the acre, while in the upper, middle portions of the State, it is again from half to three-quarters of a bale. The entire crop of the State cannot be under 300,000 bales. The provision crops are everywhere very large, and the whole people are rejoicing in plenty. The sugar crop is turning out better than was expect ed, and will, we are led to believe, average, if tbe cane is not prematurely frozen, from SOO to 900 pounds of sugar to the acre, which is three-quar ters of a full crop, and really, the full crop in an average of ten years.— Houston Telegraph 12 tk inst. The American Consul in Manchester.— The association of cotton planters in the State of Georgia, United States, have elected Mr. Baylor, the American Consul in Manchester, honorary member, and appointed him their foreign corres pondent to promote in Europe the object of the association, which is to establish free and direct trade between the cotton States and the manufac turers of Europe. This is the first note of prepa ration of the free-trade party of the South to re sist the eneroacements of the protection party, which is now organized to increase the tariff this winter at the next Congress.— European Times. A good anecdote of Professor Agassiz is told in anew volume in press, at Boston. The Professor had declined to deliver a lecture before some lyceum or public society 7 on account of the inroads which previous lectures given by him had made upon his studies and habits of thought.— I The gentleman who had been deputed to invite ! him, continued to press the invitation, assuring him that the society were ready to pay him liber- j ally for his services. “That is no inducement to j me,” replied Agassiz, “I cannot afford to waste my time in making money,” Escape from the Camanches— Wonderful Escape. —Nelson Lee arrived last Thursday in i Albany, N. Y. In March, 1856, Mr. Lee, aecom- I panied by 27 white men, when on his way from Texas for California, was attacked by the Caman- ‘ ches, who butchered 24 of the number on the field, and killed two of the survivers the day after the : fight. Wm. Aikin, one of the two, was carried off by a portion of the tribe, and Mr. Lee’s life was spared because the Indians could not manage bis repeating watch without his aid. In the camp were 23 captive white wozaea and 10 or 40 •hil dren, one of the former Anna Haskin, was bru tally murdered during his captivity. While ac companying the chief to a distant lodge, Lee managed to kill the Indian, and mounting his horse, after severe suffering he reached Mexico, where he was kindly treated and furnished with means to reach his home. ■ ■ ■■■ m A king for Cuba. A friend, almost direct from the Court of Mad rid, aud whose tine attainments and high social position enables him to approach the highest per sonages of the Spanish Court, has furnished us with some curious cabinet whisperings of anew “holy alliance.” France has taken up Cuban independence, and, with England, is proposing to erect Cuba aud Porto Rico into a semi-independent monarchy, on paying a “renta” to Spain equivalent to the re venue now received from the ever faithful isle. This “renta” is to represent the interest on a na tional debt, to be assumed by the new monarchy, in consideration of her independence, the debt and “renta” to be assured by France and England as a bond for the non-annexation of Cuba to the United States. France likes the monarchy idea, but not the monarch selected by England. Queen Christina andperfide Albion want Montpensier, the husband of Christina’s second daughter. That ambitious woman has been plotting for years to plant the Duchess of Montpensier on an American throne. Mexico failed her and now she is bidding for Cu ba; but “Napoleon the Arbiter”—arbiter he is of Spain and England—opposes her plans. He has himself suggested to leading Cubans—or his agents have done it for him—that he is disposed to “mediate with Spain for the independence of Cuba under a prince of her own ;” but not with a prince of the rival royalty of France. A prince ol his own blood, which, as he once remarked, is “American by his grand-mother Josephine,” might wed the little princess royal of Spain under a general European guarantee, and extinguish for ever the Yankee dream of annexation. Some plan is in agitation for “establishing Cu ba beyond the reach of the Yankees,” and has been dimly hinted at both by the Spanish aud French court journals many times during the last few months; and we know that our Cabinet can not be ignorant of the fact. The American Isth mus is to be Europeanized out of the reach of fair and peaceful settlement by our people, and it will be tbe business of our Cabinet and the pro-En glish party in Congress to arrest armed expedi tions to Central America. Ou the same excuses, they have crushed out every attempt to aid the Cuban emancipation until the Isthmus shall be as safely beyond the pale of Americanization as Cu ba is to-dav. The people are scarcely aware of the fact yet, but Cuba is already lost and the Isthmus not far from a like fate.— Washington States. Valuable Official Information. —The tel egraph informs us that Collector Schell has offic ially informed the Secretary of tbe Treasury that the importations will increase next month to such a degree as to render any increase of the tar iff unnecessary. Where Mr. Schell obtained this information is not stated; perhaps he is going to import the goods himself.— Providence Journal. The New York correspondent of the Boston Post says : Next week will be one of fashionable marria ges, Miss Sarah Hoffman is to be married to Vi comte Jules Treelhard, first Secretary of the French embassy at Washington, on Wednesday, and Miss Foulkc to Mr. Neilson, on Friday. Our American heiresses, j-ou sec, continue to strength en the decaying finances of the fallen nobility of France, and, we trust, carry at the same time, a little American independence into the convention alities of European high life. It is rumored that there are not less than eight connubially inclined Secretaries and attaches still unprovided with wives, and fifty (according to another authority, fifty-five) American belles and beiressses are now competing for their preference. White Slavery. —The English Parliamentary evidence of the condition of the dressmakers’ ap prentices in London, shows that in ordinary times eighteen hours a day is the allotted time for work, and during the height of the season, young girls are only allowed four hours repose, when they are roused to resume their toil. Strong coffee is ad ministered to enable them to ply their needle for twenty hours, without relaxation. According to the New York Express, the state of things, though not so bad in New York, is bad enough, where caps are made at a shilling a dozen, pantaloons at fifteen cents a pair, shirt bosoms at fourteen cents a dozen, and shirts at five cents each. There are eighty thousand working wo men in the city of New York, not all working at these rates, according to the Express, are com pelled to work for nominal sums, whilst their em ployers riot in wealth. Novel Bequest. —The will of the late Judge Wm. Jay, of Westchester County, N. Y. just made public, contains the following : , “I bequeath to my son one thousand dollars in trust, to be applied by him, at his discretion, in promoting the safety and comfort of fugitive slaves.” ly OOD’S HAIR RESTORATIVE. This Restorative for making the hair grow,’ stopping its falling out, restoring gray hair to its original color, is becoming more celebrated.

They burn it up, destroy the life at its rootsunake the hnir fall off, and produce premature baldness. But Prof. Wood’s Restorative may be relied upon as containing nothing which can in any manner be injurious to the hair, while its success in ac complishing what it pretends to do, has been ver ified in hundreds of cases.
