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 Cuufy ” u P° n the brow of blue-eycd At tbe election for city officer* in Covington, the following gentlemen were chosen : Mayor-.VI.

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* liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provi dence General Advertiser.
