Georgia and Carolina Worthies.
“Warwick,” a correspondent of the
New York jD«y Soak, write* thaw:
The Hills, Aw., Dec, 29, 1866.
Jb tie Editors of tit Dog Book:
Gents —I send for the Old Guard a
copy of Miralwaa B. I.nmar’s poem, en
titled “The 1 laukliter of Mendoza." I
hop* you will publish it. 1 can newer
forget" the first time I saw Luinnr. I
was a boy fourteen years of age. He was
an invited spenker at the second "Nulli
fication” meeting ever held in Georgia.
The first had been held in Athenian*
the seat, and dimag the commencement
of the University, under the wuspiees of
the late Augustine S. Clayton,^ then a
member of Congress from 'the State,
under the general ticket system. Athena
was the honfe ot Judge Clayton, and the
centre of literary and polite life in
Georgia. George McDuffie, from South
Carolina, was there. This second meet
iny, which really put “the ball in' mo
tion” in Georgia, was held in Covington,
Newton comity, Ga. Ho 14 Thomas F.
Foster, one of the first gentlemen and
most gilted lawyers iu the State, was
also, at that time, a Representative in
Congress, and in attendance on the
meeting as a speaker. Other distin
guished gentlemen now living were
present, and participated iu the meeting.
Among them we»e Judge John J. Floyd,
General Ba.zillai Graves, nnd liev. A.
Means, D. D., L.L. D.
Judge Clayton, by tbe way, was one
of the first wits, as well as one of the
first jurists and statesmen Georgia ever
prjdtided. His bon mots were widely
circulated through thd intellectual cir
cles of the State. In his later years he
was the subject of hemiplegia. He be
came a zealous Christian. A distin
guished infidel friend rallied him upun
that “weakness, saying, “O Clayton, yon
are infirm now and afraid to die.” With
great solemnity tile witty Judge replied,
“And is it a ‘weakness” then to fear
God 7” He inaugurated the nullifiea
turn excitement In Georgia in 18111.
While passing through South Carolina,
on his way home from Congress, he had
girth a toast at a public meeting in
these words, “He that dallies is a das
tard." Arriving in Georgia, Hon. Mr.
Cuthbert called him to account for it,
before a large assemblage of people,
desiring to know if Clayton adhered to
that sentiment. Clayton rose and moved
slowly to a conspicuous position, and
replied, “I said, in South Carolina, ‘He
that dallies is a dastard.’ 1 take this
occasion to repeat it, and to add, ‘He
that doubts is damned-l’ "
Foster was also an eccentric genius.
He once begged an honorable member
who had persisted in a Jong, prosy
speech, to desist. “I shall not desist,”
he replied ; “I am not speaking for the
benefit of the honornble gentleman from
Georgia. I am not speaking for tbis
House. lam speaking, sir, for posteri
ty.” “Yes,” replied Foster, petulantly,
“and if you keep on a little longer, pos
terity will hear yon.”
Judge Way no waa once making an
elaborate decision agkinfit Poster, in tho
Federal Court in Savannah. The Judge
was slow and a littlo pompous, spittiug
about him with great nonchalance. A
legal triend passing Foster, as he was
leaning moodily on his desk, inquired
how he liked tbe decision $ “The de
rision,” said’Foster, “that's well enough,
but d—o the manner ot itl”
Fosler was a Whig and a Harrison
man in 1844. At a political meeting iu
Greenville, Merriwether counly, Ga., iu
which many of the most gifted men in
that State participated, the late distin
guished Walter T. Colquitt, at the close
o!" his speech on the Democratic side,
turning to his enraged opponents,
demanded. “Who is td'reply to Me?”
Being told that Col. Foster would
answer him, “Theii,” Said Coiquitt, “1
shall go home. Col. Foster,is a gentle
man, and my character is safe in his
hands.” /,
It.wasat that meeting, and surrounded
by such men, that Lamar pronounced
one o! the moat fiery declamations which
ever fell from the lips of mortal man.
\\ ild with zeal, he cried out, “But it is
said that General Jackson has threat
ened to send a million of inusket-hear
iug men across the Potomac. What
then ? Why, then, meet a million of
musket-bearing men, to make that beau
titul river » river of blood. By Heaven,
fellow-citizens, I had rather see Georgia
rent from the continent by an earth
quake, and floating, an ieebeiv in the
ocean, leafless and lifeless, than to see
lur submit to this unconstitutional:
unjust taxation I Nay, I had rather see
lor sink into a lake of fire, seven times
hotter than man’s conception 1”
Ho ceased, and the multitude was
"id with mad excitement. Hi* ap
pearancq was unique. His fiue bust ;
his blue cloth sun nut aud Byron collar ;
his large, open, bine eye, and ample
brow and sombre mien, marked him as
a man of peculiar tastes, ol melancholy
mould, of veh'-mem passions, touched
with poetic ami gentle sentiments. He
Was an organized miss of human fire,
and as he moved about the town,
during the evening, In silent meditation,
saluting nobody, indulging a segar and
the shaded promenade, -all eyas went
alter him in wonder and curiosity.
When, in after File, be tied a bandanna
handkerchief over bis head and charged
the Mexican army, in Texas, riding
'done through its ranks, sword in band,
nobody who knew him was surprised.
1 remember an occasion when he was
sick in Columbus, Georgia ; his old
iriend, Colquitt, went to see him.
Tlow bard is this," said be to C.;
here 1 am, scorched to a cinder, with
[his fever; anybody but me could die,
hut I ean’t dig ; ! shall live.”
With his subsequent career in Texas,
"s soldier and statesman, the world is
■ttmiliar. Everybody remembers his
letter, demanding the life of Santa
Anna. “He has made,” said he, “the
uloo.d of innocence the Falernian of his
revel*, aud with hi* military hoot

TERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
M@Ffm min
STILL TRIUMPHANT !
A ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL
L\ by innuiiierahio living witnesses, has
proved itself to be
THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE.
Althbugh there havo been many mcdci
nal preparations brought before tho pnblio
since tbe first introduction of Perry Davis’
Vegetable l’aia Killer, and large amounts
expended in their introduction, tbo Pain
Killer has continued steadily to advauce in
the estimation of tbe world as tho best
family medicine ever introduced. As an
internal and external remedy, it is truly a
source of
Joy to the "World!
One positive proof of its efficacy is, that
the sales have constantly increased, and
upon its own merits, as tbe proprietors havo
nojt resorted to advertising to gain for it the
rank it now holds among the great number
of preparations of the preseut time. The
ellect of the Pain Killer upon the patient,
when taken internally in cases of Colds,
Coughs, Bowel Complaints, Choleia, Dys
entery, and other affections of the system,
has been <ruly wonderful, and has won for
it a name arning medicinal preparations
that can never be forgotten. Its success in
removing pains, us an external remedy in
cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains,
Cfifs, Stings of inseots, and other causes of
Suffering, has secured for it such a host of
testimony, as an almost infallible remedy,
that it will be banded down to posterity as
ono of tho greatest medical discoveries of
the nineteenth century. The magical ef
fectp of the Pain Killer, when taken or used
according to directions, arc certain. You
have only to be sure that you buy the
genuine article and adhere.to (he directions
in its use, and you will admit its wonderful
medicinal properties.
The genuine Perry Davis' Pain Killer is
now put up.in panel bottles, with the words
Davis' Vegetable Paltt Killer blown in the
glass; and with two steel engraved labels
on each bottlo-7-one an excellent likeness of
Perry Travis, the original inventor of the
medicine, tho other a steel engraved notoof
hand. None others can be relied upon as
genuine. Prices of bottles 12£ cents, 25
cents, 50 cents, and sl, respectively.
Valuable Medicine —We presume no
medical preparation ever offered to the pub
no has been more thoroughly touted than
PERRY DAY lb’ PAIN KILLER. Thou
sands ot persons, were they called upon to
do so, would cheerfully testify that they
havo used it for various ills, with the moat
satisfactory success. It is within our own
knowledge that an immense amount of suf
fering has been relieved by it. Iff pro
prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis &. 3,0n, save
no pains or expense in order to satisfy tho
Ibbiie.’ Being strictly honornble men, they
observe the utmost uniformity in tbe man
ufacture of their celebrated Paid Killer.
Tbe materials of which' it is composed are
carofully selected—none but tbe best quality
being used. By these means tho high repu
tation which the Pain Killer has long since
acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus
tained. In view of these facts, we are by
np means surprised to lehrn that Messrs.
.Davis ft boa’s tales are aonttaatly and
rapidly increasing. While we congratulate
our ! friends generally that so valuable a
preparation as the Pain Killer is placed
within their reach, we must bo permitted to
rejoice at the well-merited success of it*
