efi'ort to taka what burthen we can from the
Treasury by our Fee Bill. Suitors or defend
ants, in every case possible, divide the expense
of our Courts with the State. Iu Fostal Affairs,
the practicability ol making this equitable dis
tribution is so evident that we wouder it has
not been universally insisted upon. Perhaps
the rates of postage reported by Mr. Chilton
will, after awhile, be subjected to some materi
al modifications. We think as at present ad
vised, that the charges on newspapers are too
high. We feel pretty certain that a tax of one
dollar and fifty-six cents on a daily newspaper,
will prove, in the long run, burthensome and
restrictive—perhaps prohibitory, in a great de
gree, on many dailies. The rates on letters, as
reported to the Congress by Mr. Chilton’s Bill,
wo think are very nearly right.
We will certainly get them right after awhile,
for we now find ourselves at last in the midst
of circumstances all conducive to upright, im
partial legislation. This we nover could have
truthfully said before. Our merchants, plan
ters and manufacturers wage no war on each
other. Not a measure of public polity is asked
for as a bonus to a class or a distinct favored
interest. Nothing can ever complicate legisla
tion long at a time but an effort to rob under
specious pretexts. To concoot a plausible lie
by way of mask for legalised wrong, has cost
more labor and science auy one year, than
would have been needed to secure the benefits
of an outright, honest administration for cen
turies. If wa will just now maka the best of
the present lull in the base conflict of selfish
ambitions and desires, and while all are self sac
rificing, start out on our future race guided sole
ly by e sense of patriotic duty, we will have
the most perfect polity and the happiest coun
try on the face of the earth.
Military.
We take pleasuro in referring our friends of
the Independent Georgia Militia, in Fulton
county, to the announcement, in another col
umn, of the oandidaoy of Msj. Maddox for the
office of Colonel, and cordially commend him
for their suffrage*, at the election on the 9th
proximo.
We learn, with pleasure, that the Recruits
sent forward to Savannah from this city have
all been reoafved. Several recruited at other
poInU In the State were rejected. This speaks
well for the discrimination of the officers (Cep-
tains Wallace and Thompson) and the exam,
ining Physician, Dr. J. F. Alexander.
We are also informed that Capt. Wallaochas
recaived instructions, direct from the Adjn-
tant-General, to commence immediately to re
cruit for his own Company. Parsons wishing
to enter the service under Capt. Wallace—to
serve under him during their term of enlist
msnt—have now an opportunity to do so; and
we doubt not many will avail themselves of it.

Coercion Disclaimed.
The Philadelphia “ Bulletin” (RepubliW)
has an article upon the new Southern Confed
eracy, admitting that its establishmaut pro
seats a very different state of things from tho
solitary secession of South Carolina. It thinks
that, some months ago, “a moderate display
of Federal authority iu the Cotton Statea would
have preserved the Union. Now, we fear, such
authority can only be assertel by the most ex
tensive and expensive warlike demonstrations
that the United States Government has aver
been called upon to make. As Congress is the
war-making power, and as Congress will not
authorise a war upon the seceding States, Mr.^
Lincoln will be restricted to pacific measures,
at least, till the nexl Congress, until provoca
tion from tbe Southern Confederacy shall au
thorise a war. We do not, therefore, appre
hend a war between tbe two divisions of tbe
Union ; nor do we expect that Mr. Lincoln, in
his inaugural addreas will counsel any warlike
Tbe Floating ltattery Launched.
We learn, from the Charleston “ News," that
this structure was launohed at 8 o’clock on the
morning of tbe 25th instant, in the presence of
a large number of spectators. It descended
into its destine^ element with no accident or
mishap whatever, and now only awaits some
few additions and the placing of the guns to
be ill a state of completeness for action.
We learn, from our Milledgeville ex

ResolutioiiH of the Maryland Convention.
The Maryland Convention, having remained
in seaaion only two days, adjourned last week,
after adopting an address to the people of the
State, and the following resolutions :
Whereas, It is tbe opinion of this meeting
that in the present alarming crisis in the his
tory of our country, it is desirable that tbe
State of Maryland should be repretented by
judicious, intelligent and patriotic agents, ful
ly authorized to confer and act with our sister
Statea of the South, particularly with the State
of Virginia.
And Whereas, Such authority can be confer
red solely by a Convention of the people of the
State.
And Whereas, In tho opinion of this meet
ing. the Legislature not being in session, a full
and fair expression of the popular will is most
likely to be heard by a Convention, railed by
the recommendation of the Executive.
And Whereas, It is alleged that theGovernor
now has in contemplation to recommend by
proclamation such a movement in tbe event of
a failure by the Peace Conference and Congress
to effect any satisfactory solution of the vexed
questions now agitating the country—
Bo it therefore Resolved, That we shall ap
prove such a proceeding on the part of the
Governor, and add the voice 6f this Convention
for the actiou of the Governor in the matter,
this Convention will adjourn until the 12th
day of March next, unless immediately tbe
State of Virginia should, by her Sovereign Con
vention, secede from the Union, in which event,
and in case the Governor of the State should
not have then called a Sovereign Convention
of the people of this State, this Convention
shall atonce reassemble, at tbe call of the Pres
ident, with a view of recommending to the
people of the State the election of delegates to
such a Sovereign Convention.
Resolved further, As the sense of this Con
vention, that the secession of the seven slave
holding States from our Federal Union was in
duced by the aggression of the nou-slavehold-
ing States, in violation of the Constitution of
the United States.
Resolved further, That tho moral and mate
rial interests and the geographical position of
this State, demand that it should act with Vir
ginia iu this crisis, co-operation with that State
in all honorable efforts to maintain and defend
the Constitutional rights of its citizens in the
Union, and failing in that, to associate with
her in confederation with our sister States of
the South.
Resolved further, That tho honor of this State
requires that it should not permit its soil to be
made a highway for Federal troops sent to
make war upon our sister States of the South,
and it is the opinion of this Convention that
an attempt on the part of tho Federal Govern
ment to coeroe the States which have seceded
would necessarily result in civil war and the
destruction of the Government itself.
The ludlaiis—Aflectlng Appeal.
A deputation from the Pottawottamies, con
sisting of three chiefs reached Kansas, on the
20th instant, and applied lor relief for their
tribe. Aftar sitting for a few moments in Gene
ral Pomeroy’s office, Tassorabarre, a venerable
chief, arose and said :
“ We have heard that you are a great father
of the whites; will you become a lather to my
starving people? Two of iny tribe are dead
already, and many are in danger of starvation
if not immediately supplied. Our wives and
children were crying about us when we left.—
They said if you come back empty we will
starve. The annuities have been cut off—the
traders will not send us food for we have no
money—our horses and cattle are dying, and
we have no seed to plant. We left our home
on Lake Michigan. My wigwam stood where
now is the great city of Chicago. We were re
moved from Council Bluff. Never in my life
have I seen such suffering among my people.
If you help us we will live, if not we shall
die."
The chief is said to be a fiuo looking Indian,
and speaks fluently and with great emotion.—
He represented that two hundred and fifty of
his tribe were in the moet destitute condition,
which was corroborated by statements from
that part of the country. Gen. Pomeroy loaded
ten wagons with provisions, which will last
them till spring.
Death of Rev. Seneca U. Bragg.
We regret to learn that this estimable gen
tleman and pioua Christian is no more. He
died at Kingston, New York, on the 21at ulti
mo, in the 68th year of hit age. Mr. Bragg
was a native of New York, and after complet
ing his education, he was ordained to the Min
istry by Bishop Meade, of Virginia. He sub
sequently resided at Tallahassee, Florida, aleo
at Macon, (being for several years rector of the
Episcopal Churoh in that city,) and at Mont-
peliar, where, at the request of Bishop Elliott,
ha became connected with the Institute. Mr.
Bragg was a man of learning and piety, geo-
tlain his disposition, and has left many friends
to cherish his memory.
In(creating Correspondence.
New Yohk, February 18, 1861.
Mn Clemens —Otar Sir:—I have Just read,
with painful interest, yonr letter or the 24,
addressed to Dr. Borland, and I regret exceed*
ingly that so staunch a friend of the Union as
you were a short time ago, should so readily
yield to the Sectssiouisls; thus arraying your
self against the brave and loyal men at tho
North, who are opposing tbe Republican Par*
ty. Suppose tbe leaders of that are obstinate,
aud show no evident sign of compromise 7 Is
not this all brought about by a fear on tbefr
part, that the party may be broken down even
before it can gain acoess to power? You,
certainly, ought to know that this is true.—
Tbe Republicans sre in powsr In most of the
Northern States, and they do not appear will
ing to allow the people a chance to vote on
compromises, that will oert&itily destroy their
parly platform, until the tegular time for
holding eleotion. So far as elections have ta
ken place, there has appeared a manifest reac
tion ; and this would have appeared more
manifest still but for the illegal aud violent
action of the cotton Slates.
This hac checked the compromise spirit of
many true Democrats, who would have at all
limes met the South with an honorable con
promise.
Since things have quieted down, the reac
tion has revived, and if time can only be giv
en the people the North will respond to tbe
border Stales. I am assured that Connecii
cut, at the April election, will show a com
plete reaction. In New Hampshire, tho De
mocracy is demoralized as at Charleston and
Baltimore, and are running two and three
candidates against their opponents who are
uniied Now 1 hope you will not use your
influence to arrest all further action towards
a reconstruction, but aid us si ill in holding
up the noblest government on Earth, and one
that has not oppressed the people in any sense.
A Southern Confederacy can offer no belter,
and it does seem to be arrant madness to shut
all the avenues that would lead to such a con
sumation.
If the Southern States desire peace they
can have it, but they cannot maintain it by
armed violence, which will surely beget armed
opposition. Now, let us drown passion and
follow our better judgment, aud iu the end all
will come right.
Shall this be, or shall we go forward to a
worse result?
Your friend,
SAMUEL U. OGDEN.
P. S.—Every indication, at home and
abroad, go to show that the Southern people
have struck a blow at their interest, which it
will take years to remove.
Huntsville, Ala., Feb. 16, 1 SGI.
Dear Sir:— Your letter of the 13th instant,
was received on yesterday. Written, as I am
sure it was, from the best motives, it demands
of me a kind and respectful answer.
You say rightly that I was, a short lime
since, a staunch friend of the Union, and you
might have added that I aru jet the friend of
that Union which our fathers formed, and
would cheerfully lay down my life to make it
eternal. Looking at the subject from differ
ent stand points, it is natural that it should
presents different appearance to you and to
me. You see only the evils of disunion, and
forget that there are wrongs to which submis
sion is infamy. You do not feel those wrongs,
and, therefore, treat them lightly. Theplun
der of the public treasury is your gain, since
it creates a necessity for higher duties. Per
sonal liberty bills do not effect \ou, and the
scornful refusal of Northern Governors to sur
render criminals indicted uuder the laws of
the Southern States, awakens in your bosom
no feeling of resentment. The appropriation
of all the territory acquired by tbe common
blood, and the common treasure, to sectional
uses, would wear a very different aspect if it
was your section that was robbed, instead of
ours. You would not have made a martyr,
and a saint of a midnight murderer and house
burner, if the theater of his exploits had been
upon Northern soil. You would not deify a
despicable demagogue like Seward, if his ir
repressible conflict doctrine had been preached
to a class of laborers in your midst, nor would
auy people not hopelessly embittered against
us, have greeled with rounds of applause, the
declaration of Wendell Phillips, that the name
of a St. Domingo negro deserved to be written
high above that of Washington on the roll of
fame.
I kuow your answer will be, that these are
not the sentiments of the people of the North.
1 have given the same answer for you again and
again. I believed it for years—1 wish I could
believe it yet. But 1 caunot shut my eyes to
the fact, that those who preach these things
are precisely those whom your people delight
to honor. 1 waited and hoped for the dawn
of a better day, until hope implied self stupi-
fioation. The "regular time for holding elec
tions” has come and gone many times siuce
this agitation began. Each time we were prom
ised that Abolition fanatics would be swept
away by the blasts of popular indignation, and
each time we have seen them grow stronger
and stronger. We have allowed the people of
the North 44 a chance to vote,” not ouco but
often, and every time tbslohanoe was allowed
them, they have exhibited a growing fondness
for the worst men, and the worst doctrines
with which your section of the Confederacy
is cursed. And now we are asked to submit
quietly to the election of a man whose nomi
nation waa made in open insult to our feelings
—whose principles are avowedly hostile to our
institutions, and whose friends, from the day
of his election, have manifested no feeling
but that of bitter and uncompromising enmi
ty, while even you can offer us no hope of re
action anywhere except in the little State of
Connecticut. Pardon me for saying that the
degradation to which you invite me is loo
deep to be accepted for the little good it prom
ises to bring foi-tla
You express the hope that I will not use my
influence to prevent a reconstruction. It is
one of the misfortunes of the times that good
men of the North do not seem to understand
their own people, or ours. The work of re
construction must be begun and carried on by
f ou, and not by us. We have been reluctent-
y driven to disunion as the only refuge from
slavery. If you want us back again, the first
thing to be done, is to remove all just causes
of complaint, and dissipate all well founded
apprehensions of future aggression. You
must observe the laws; establish justice, and
manifest a determination to respect all our
constitutional rights. Until this is dona it is
childish to talk of reconstruction. You can
not expeot us to enter into a new partnership
while the wrongs and insults of the old one
are unredressed, and no provision is made
against their recurrence. And now, sir, let
me ask you in all candor, do you believe it
possible that we oan obtain either redress for
the past, or security for tha future ? Do not
answer me,bj ihe poor subterfuge th*J a.Dem
ocrat will be eleeted in Connecticut, and an
other might be in New Hampshire, if the De
mocracy were not demoralized, I know, and you
ought to know, that tha Dsipotracv hare for-
nished the main pillars of the abolition Churofc.
I do not oare to know, therefore, whether the
Governor of Connecticut claims to bo a Dem
ocrat or Whig. That whloh I wish to know
is, will this til every agitation bo allowed to
ctasa? Can I travel through the State of
Now York with my servant without his being
stolon from mo? Cu I go to Ohio to reoap-
tors a rtlavs without osing sued, and held to
bail, on account for work sad labor done dur
ing the time ho waa held as my property uu-
der tha laws of my Blais ? Can I go to Penn-
sylvaoi* for the same purpose, and not ioour
tha dangar of being murdered by a mob ?—
Can I go anywhere at tha North without being
obstructed in the pursuit of my constitutional
rights ? Will any Northern Governor surren
der a felon who has deprived ms of toy prop
•rty ? Until you eatraoswer these questions
to my satisfaction neither my votes, nor my
vote, shall ever be given for a reconstruction
of tba Union. 1 have beard others say, and
possibly you may say, that all these matters
will be righted if we will only give you lime.
Vary well, take as much tiara as you please.
We do not propose to limit you at all in that
matter, but we intend to remain out of the part
nership until it is done. It is your business—
go to work and do it. After it is finished you
will be iu a condition to make propositions,
aud we can listeu to them without dishonor.
In the meantime, as a precaution against the
J possible failure of your efforts, we will go on
| to build up such a government as will besufli*
! cieut for the protection of our rights,
j There is another clause of your letter which
I must not pass over unnoticed. You say "If
; the Southern States desire peace they can
I have it, but they cannot maintain it by armed
| violence, which will surely beget armed oppo
; sition.” We do desire peace, but wc are uot
willing to purchase it at the sacrifice of our
manhood; and threats of coercion will not
frighten us into quiescence. We have been
guilty of no violence—we have armed our
selves as it becomes a free people to do when
their liberties are endangered, And have pre
pared to welcome all it vaders in strict accord
ance with the advice of a Northern statesmen
— with bloody hands to hospitable graves No
collision will lake place unless you bring it
about, but you must dismiss from your minds
the idea of holdiug furls upon our territory,
or collecting revenue off our seaports. Peace
or war is entirely at your option. Wa have
no demands to make—we propose no interfer
ence with your rights, and no curtailment of
your privileges, uuless you esteem it a privi
lege to rob and eDsluve us, but we claim the
right of deciding for ourselves what amount to
hostilities on your part, and will act accord-
ingly.
It pains me <o observe iu the whole tone of
your letter a spirit of fault- finding, which is a
bad augury for the future. Y'ou seem to think
that you have something to complain of. You
overlook the wrongs and outrages of which
you have been guilty, and murmur at our
preparations for defence. It is the wolf
chargiug the lamb with muddying the stream
when it was drinking below him. It will be
well for you if the simile ends here, for the
lambs of this latitude are provided with dead
ly fangs, and are troubled with no scruples
against using them in self-defence.
In conclusion, permit roe to add that if you
would rebuild the temple of ’76, you roust
begin by replacing the foundation stones
which were fashioned by the men of the rev
olution—establish justice—promote domestic
tranquility, instead of disturbing it, and shape
your policy so as to advance the general wel
fare, instead of the interest of aseotion. Do
this, and you need not doubt that all of our
duties will be discharged, and our obligations
redeemed.
Very truly and respectfully,

novel, Theresa Marchmont, is said to have been
written in a week ; since then she has produc

LiquoRtcE Growing in Texas.— Ws learn
from the San Antonia Ledger that a Mr. Poin
sard, of that city, has been eminently success
ful in the culture and acclimation of liquorice
root, which he had imported from Franca. Of
all the plants imported, one alone survived —
The growth was luxuriant, notwithstanding
the drouth, covering the ground for a circum
fercnce of fifteen feet, proving that irrigation
is not necessary to its successful growth. In
deed. so successful has Poinaard been, both in
relation to Us acclimation and culture, that he
looks forward to the liquorice root becoming
speedily an article of extensive export from
Western Texas.—N. O. Bulletin.

How goes tbe money ? Well,
I’m sore it iant hard to tell;
It goes for rent, and water-rates,

Hats, eaps and carpets, hoops and hose—
And that’s tbe way the money goes !
How goes tbe money ? Nsy,
Don’t everybody kuow the way?
It goes for bonnets, costs and capes,

And that's tbe way the money goes !
How goes tbe money t Bure,
I wish the ways were something f*-wer ;
It goes for wages, taxes, debts ;
It goes for presents, goes for bets,
For paint, pomade and «u de rose—
And that’s the way the money goes !
How goes the money ? Now,
I’ve scarce begun to mention how ;
It goes for laces, feathers, rings,
Toys, dolls, and other b&by-things,
Whips, whistles, candies, bells and bows—
And that’s the way the money goes !
How goes the money ? Come,
I know it doesn’t go for rum;
It goes for schools and Sabbath chimes,
It goes for charity— sometimes ;
For missions, and such things as those—
And that’s the way the money goes !
How goes tbe money ? There !
I’m out of patience, I declare ,*
It goes for plays and diamond-pins,
For public alms and private ains.
For hollow shams and silly shows—
And that's tbe way the money goes !

Crape Culture.
Having paid practical attention to a vine
yard five aud twenty years, the names of the
grapes as mentioned in tho following catalogue
are recommended of great value for Southern
culture for making fine wine for any market.
The coarser varieties are excluded:
1. Moselle, 18. Re«l Chenselas,
i. Kassel**, 14. White Chessela.*,
8. lied Frontinac, 1ft. Champaigne,

The cultivation of the grape is assuming an
importance commensurate with the pressing
wants of this great country. We have the sky
of Italy the soil of France; and, under the
the hand of diligent culture, my fellow-citi

President Buchanan on Coercion.—A
Washington letter says; it is understood that
President Buchanan will veto Any measure that
may be passed by Congress having for its ob
ject the coercion of the South, but it is evident
from the course of his Administration, since
the reorganization of the Cabinet, that he does
not view the protection of tbs Forts and the
cnergetio resistance of any attempt to seize
(hem us coercion. He does not, however, in'
elude in these measures the bill for the con
struction of seven steam sloops of war. Large
quantities of ordinance stores are being daily
received from the Washington Arsenal and sent
