CONSOLING.
The Tribune says there are not ten men of
common sense in New 1 ork who doubt Lin
coln’s success, and in view of its certainty he
app ils to politicians to cease their misrepresen
ts!., ms of Old Abe, as an immediate emancipa
t om.-t. The Tribune is evidently a little anx
ious about matters, though he winds up by the
abortion that the I nion is not going even seri
ously to be shaken. “It is a rock on which
thousands may make shipwreck of their own
hopes, fortunes and even lives, but which will it-
K. lfbe unaffected by their criminal madness.”
\« ■ the Grand lurk himself, ora Russian Czar
. v<-r entertained so magnificent ideas of his pow
er to crush out revolt, as Old Greeley, Abe and
Seward seem to entertain of the power of the
Federal Government to extinguish all resis
tance. and to keep sovereign States in the I n
as sheep are kept in the Butcher's pen.—
fne Trihuui may rest easy about misrepresen
tations of Old Abe. What he says for himself is
that this Union cannot endure half free and hall
••lave. How can you exaggerate such a declara
tion as that ?

A Northern Klan on the Effect of Lincoln’s
Election.
A letter is published from the Hon. Daniel
D. Barnard, of Albany, New York, well known
as at one time a distinguished Whig member of
Congress, and subsequently the Editor of the
American Review, an able quarterly exponent
of old time Whiggery. lie is now a Bell and
Everett man. Mr. Barnard had been invited to
address a Lincoln meeting, and in response said
he would take occasion to prepare for the pub
lic eye his reasons for the, strong opinions he
entertained that the doctrine and purposes of
the Republican party are incompatible with the
preservation of the Union and the Constitution,
and that its triumph could not fail to endanger
the stability of the government.
Mr. Barnard’s communication fills seven col
umns, and is a masterly expose of the single
idea of Black Republicanism—negro equality;
« and in reference to their alleged imbecility or
unwillingness to carry out their doctrines, Mr.
Barnard says:—
“Fur myself, I shall not consent to act as if I
believed nothing was meant or intended by this
doctrine, except to draw the honest elector into
the support of the party by false pretences.—
That supposition—a favorite idea with many—
would assume that the leaders of the party are
only a wicked combination of impudent and ar
rant knaves. I believe they mean a great deal
, more than many think they do. I regard them
as engaged in an earnest crusade against slave
ry as it exists in the country, and that they be
lieve that in possession of the power they shall
find means—they may not understand them
selves, definitely, what means, or all the means,
but they will find some means of striking a
blow, sooner or later to be a fatal blow, at sla
very, in spite of the Constitution, ami of the
independent power of the States over the sub
ject"
We append Mr. Barnard’s views upon the
probable effect of Lincoln’s election upon tbe
South and the Union—omitting such part of
them as charges upon South Carolina and the
Breckinridge men a design to foment trouble
in order to compass disunion :
“At the South—assuming all the while that
the South shall make no concerted opposition to
this rule of the North over her—an anti-slavery
administration may find it more difficult to op
erate with success. Os course it must appoint
none but anti-slavery men to office, if such men
can be found al the South, ami will take the
hazard of the appointments; ami of course, also,
every appointee of this character—perhaps eve
ry one accepting office at all—every Postmaster,
Custom House officer, District Attorney, Mar
shal and Judge, appointed by an anti-slavery
Administration, will be looked upon and treated
as an Abolitionist, a spy, and an incendiary.—
We all know that every instance of such an ap
pointment in any State where slavery exists,
will cause an outburst of popular indignation in
the locality of the office, ami a popular move
ment, which, as in the case of the receivers of
stamps just before the Revolution, will compel
every such officer to resign, and probably drive
him from the Slate. There will then be noth
ing left for the Administration but to come, as
best it may, to the defence and support of its of
ficers, or to yield to the popular violence. Con
fusion, bloodshed and anarchy are the least that
can be expected; and if continued and exten
ded, revolution would not be far off. An at
tempt to mako the General Post Office Depart
ment an agency, through Postmasters in the
local offices at the South, for the distribution
of anti slavery publications of an incendiary
character, or such as the State authorities—
necessarily the exclusive judges in the case—
shall deem to be such, could not fail to be met
with a resistance enlisting the South as one man
in her defence.
But I cannot dwell on what may come to
pass under an anti-slavery Administration. I
believe that a great danger is likely to be en
countered before any such administration could
be formed, in case of the election of a President
by the present anti-slavery party of the North.
1 believe that a serious attempt is likely to be
made in the South, in such an event, to secede
from the Union. lam afraid it might be suc
cessful, and I am. not afraid to express these
fears. Many good men, 1 know, have persua
ded themselves that such apprehensions are
idle—or worse ; others, who are not very good
men, and others still, who are very wise in
their own conceit, treat such opinions with
scorn. This is not the first time that fools and
fanatics have rushed along where angels would
fear to tread. The question is not what we of
the North think of the Republican party, but
what do the South think of it. What it really
is, by its own showing, I have endeavored to
set forth in this letter. What do the South—
what can the South—think of such a party ?
Let wise men among us reflect. Let prudent
men consider. The South has long held a
■strong body of disunionists—the disciples of
their great South Carolina statesman. These
are always on the watch for an opportunity to
be driven from the Union by the aggressions of
the North.
* * * * j.
But, if in spite of all efforts, it shall be an
nounced in November next that the party of
anti-slavery has triumphed in the election—the
party of the North against the South—the par
ty which the South will believe, whatever we
of the North may believe, is to come into the
common government of the country on a doc
trine and sentiment of hostile and fatal por
tent and purpose towards her and her most
vital interests —if such shall be the result,
then, certainly, 1 have no expectation whatever
that the country is to to .Ur. Lincoln s in
auguration without witnessing an attempt in
the South to sever the Union. Whether such
an attempt can be successful or not, is a specu
lation into which Ido not enter. The attempt
and what must attend it, offer horrors enough
to me. But I must say, that if several States
of this Union, moved by a strong common im
pulse, on a question of Southern rights, and
with no formidable opposition at home, should
resolve at any time to go out of it, I am clear
in the opinion that the North, and the Federal
Government in the hands of the North, would
be impotent to keep them in it. Possibly it
may be the policy of Southern States, if re
solved on separation, to begin with disowning
the Federal Government in the hands of their ‘
enemies, leaving the Administration and both j
Houses of Congress, in the hands of the North
exclusively, and taking care, by popular de
monstrations, that no man shall accept or hold
office at the South under the Administration.
The civil authority of the Government in that
part of the Union would thus be ended, and
nothing would remain for it but to employ tin
army and navy as its agents to carry on there,
under martial law, the ordinary operations of
civil administration, or to abandon the con
test.
Bell Men Becoming Black Rkpvbi.icans.—
About three hundred of the American portion of
the Bell and Everett party in Baltimore, on
Lhursday night, marched to the Lincoln head
quarters and joined that pai ty. This was in con
sequence of the election of the reform ticket in
Baltimore, which’destroyed the rule of the so
called American club in that city. The result
of this will be to increase Breckinridge’s plural
ity in the State, Since the election many who
have previously been Douglas men are coming
over to Breckinridge.
THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 18, 1860.
The Charleston Courier on Disunion*
The Courier has always been a Union print,
1 and during the stormy days of nullification,
1 passed through fire and water in defence of the
Federal I nion. What the Courier thinks now,
we learn from a few comments appended to
; some remarks of the Philadelphia Bulletin.—
1 The Bulletin commenting upon the certain tri
' unaph of Lincoln says:
“The nation will now quietly make up its
mind to the election of Mr. Lincoln to the Presi
dency. It was well that so great a State as
* Pennsylvania should lead off in the decisive
work of his election. Iler conservatism, her
loyalty to the Union, her love for the Constitu
tion, and her respect for the rights cf the peo
ple of all the States, are not to be questioned.
The Southern States themselves will have no
apprehension of wrong under a President who
receives the cordial support of such a State as
Pennsylvania. During the five months that will
intervene between this time and the 4th of
March, all turbulent and traitorous demonstra
tions, all threats of disunion, will be quietly but
effectively suppressed by the healthy and po
tent influence of conservative men all over the
Union, and we predict a prosperous and peace
ful administration, of which the Southern States
will make Less complaint than they have made
of the administration of Mr. Buchanan.”
To which the Courier subjoins the following
Words of comment:
“If any Northern readers indulge in the hopes
uttered by the Bulletin, they will experience a
fearful disappointment. With Lincoln’s elec
tion, this Union is doomed—and this, we be
lieve, is the honest opinion of many among
those from the South who do not themselves
advocate and demand a separation on that ac
count alone.”
A STONE FROM THE PYRAMIDS.
We are indebted to a friend who has return
ed from a visit to New York, for the opportuni
ty of examining and presenting to curious rea
ders, who can call at the Courier office, a most
interesting document. This is a far simile
from a photographic print, with explanation
and interpretation, of part of a manuscript late
ly discovered. For convenient and concise de
scription, we take the following account from
the New York Evening Post :
Discovery of a Manuscript of the Time of
David. —ln the year 1858 a Theban mountain
eer discovered in a hill, called by the Arabs
Shin-abd-el-Gourna, a tomb cut out of the rock,
in which he found a mummy-case with a gold
spread-eagle and a golden asp ; also a tablet of
green stone, a box with four canopi of Oriental
alabaster, and on the side of a magnificent
mummy with a gilded mask and a large gilded
scarabieus of porcelain on its breast, a most re
markable papyrus scroll, five feet long and ten
inches wide, written in the finest hieratic and
hieroglyphic characters. The four jars were
sold to Lord Henry Scott, a young Englishman.
The mask was purchased by a copt who pur ,
chased and sold antiquities at Thebes, and was
transferred by him to the French consular agent
at that place, and may be now either in his
possession or in the museum at Paris. ’The
papyrus, as also the scarabaeus, the tablet and
the eagle, came into the hands of George A.
Stone, Esq., of Roxbury, Mass., then traveling
in Egypt. Mr. Stone sent copies and photo
graphs of the papyrus to several Egyptologists
in New York, who attempted its translation,
but failed, because they were only acquainted
with Champollion’s system.
Finally, Mr. Stone sent a photographic copy
to Professor G. Seyffarth, of St. Louis, Mo.,
having been informed that this gentleman had
published, in the year 1833 and 1835, the key
to the Egyptian literature and to the ancient
astronomical inscriptions and monuments. This
savant the author of the “ Summary of Recent
Discoveries,” &c., New York, 1857, and a large
number of other works, has just published the
translations and explanations, as requested of
him, in the Transactions in the Academy of
Science of St. Louis for the year 1860, (pp. 527
-569,) with sixteen lithographic plates. The
biography of Horsebe (the sword of Horus) is
to be found in the first column of the papyrus
and we learn by that, that he was the command
ing general of Pharaoh Shishak 1., who slew
the last king of Manetho’s XNlst dynasty, and
suppressed by his captain the rebels in five diff
erent provinces of Egypt. This Shishak 1., the
head of the XXI Id dynasty, lived according to
Manetho and the monuments, one hundred and
twenty-four years previous to Shishak IL, the
conqueror of Jerusalem (1 Kings 11: 40—14 :
25,) in the fifth year of Rehoboain, (945 B. C.).
Horsebe was consequently a contemporary of
Saul and David, and the papyrus in question
has been written about the year 1050 B. C., or
three hundred years before the foundation c f
Rome, and is at present two thousand nine hun
dred years old.
The residue of this precious manuscript con
tains a new religious book of the ancient Egyp
tians, and begins with the following sentences :
“The Book of Hymns for singing the glories of
Him who made Isis [the earth]; the glories of
that invisible Being who made Osiris [the sun]
(the originator of the life of his race; the orig
inator of the life of his nation, and the origina
tor of the circle of the solar year with its sea
sons ; the builder of the sacrificial quadrupeds,
being convenient for Him in His house of light,
and ordered by His Father, the Lord Governor;
the originator of the priests for his race in the
firmament, and for Adon, the Lord); who made
Meni [the moon] (the originator of the flax-seed,
of her own sex, and of spinners and weavers for
the races in both the regions of Egypt, and also
for the makers of cloths for the people); who
made the most holy one, the apotheosed mighty
chief of the Crethi [the standing army] the
warriors of the mighty Egyptians, those in the
City of the Sun [Thebes], the capital of the sov
ereign of Egypt, of the shepherd of all born in
Egypt and its vicinities, namely, the mighty
Horsebe.” After this introduction a grand
hymn begins.
Dr. Seyffarth’s name has been frequently and
favorably before our readers in incidental and
abridged notices of some of his important dis-
I coveries and researches.
He is, as we learn from gentlemen who have
visited him, a noble specimen of the German
philosopher, in the best phase and mood—a
man of profound erudition, deeply versed in the
natural sciences and in philology, as well as in
the dust covered traditions and monuments of
Egyptian lore, and withal ofa simple, child-like
i faith and a genial purity of purpose. One art
I is unknown to him, but in New York that want
is almost fatal. He has not learned or illustra
ted the art of making money “at all hazards,”
and without this a man in New York, although
he speaks with all tongues and enjoys all the
good gifts of God, is not considered or appre
ciated.
We have some reasons for hoping that Dr. ;
Seyffarth, devotedly attached as he is to favor- 1
ite pursuits, and now intensely occupied in ;
great tasks, can be persuaded—for scientific
considerations —to favor Charleston with a brief
visit, at least, during the approaching winter.
The sac simile referred to may be examined ,
in this office by careful and curious visitors.
ZThc Queen and Prince Albert Enjoying a
Quiet Night in the Country.
“A gentleman drove to the door of the com
fortable inn known as the Grant’s Arms, in the
village of Grantown, the capital of Strathspey.
He obuined audience of the land-lady, Mrs. Glass,
and wished to engage the whole house that night
for a newly married couple and their suite
The worthy hostess demurred, as she might ex
clude some of fiercest customers; but the appli-
eant was civil as well as urgent, and gave as
, surance that the party was ‘highly respectable’.
, There was no difference as to terms, and Mrs.
s Glass was told that she would be glad after
wards to know that she had stretched a point to
’ accommodate the party. In these circumstan
• ces an arrangement was made, and the occupants
. of the house were politely requested to boardn
. out for the night. The principals arrived in the
evening—apparently quiet people, satisfied with
everything and everybody about them. In a
i newly married couple such equanimity might
■ have been expected, but this part of the affair
■ was evidently a hoax, and had only the effect of
: raising conjectures as to who the party mio'ht be
but on this point all the attendants were°dumb'
Next morning at 10 o’clock the carriages were
at the door, and the strangers took their seats.
All being ready to start, Mrs. Glass was called
lor, and Lord Churchill complimented her on
the cleanliness and order of her establishment.
The strangers had been very comfortable, and
t the lady had never slept more soundly in her
life. ‘I may now tell you,’ said his Lordship,
as the principal carriage drove awr ~ ‘that you
have been entertaining her gracious Majesty the
Queen and the Prince Consort. They do not
wish this to be known until about ten minutes
after they have left.”— lnverness Courier.

New Arrangement.
WITH the facilities and long experience we possess
in the Musical Business, we did not only select
the BEST
PIANOS,
as regards tone and durability, but have also effected
the most advantageous terms to our customers for the
supply of superior Instruments. We partly selected our
Pianos and partly had them made to order. We are now
receiving, without doubt, the best selection ever before
brought to Macon, consisting of"
6 1-2, 7, and 7 1-4 Octaves
in plain an higdhly finished cases to suit everv taste.—
These Instruments we are prepared to sell either for
Cash, on time, or monthly installments,
at the lowest Factory prices. The latter arrangement,
we think, will be accepted by mauv persons in want of
first class Instruments, who are perhaps not willing to
pay the entire amount at once, and to whom it will be
easier to pay in monthly installments. Our object is to
assist such persons in procuring a first class Piano, for
whose superiority we will give a five year’s guarantee.—
We intend to effect large sales, and are satisfied with
smallprofits.
f?£’" ! Come and see our Stock to be convinced that we
ought and really have such instruments as we repre
sent them to be.

HOUSE
AT CHATTANOOGA, TENN.,
lOK SAIaE.
IN consequence of the death of my brother-in-law, and
partner, the late John H. Lumpkin, of Georgia, all
Hie real and personal estate owned by us jointly, in the
State of Tennessee, will be sold to the highest bidder, on
WEDNESDAY, 28th DAY OF NOVEMBER, 1860,
The property consists of the well known
“ U 22 UTCIIFIELD HO USE, ”
At Chattanooga, Tenn., with all of its rights and privi
leges, including the
fiivnitiire,
And the three lots upon which the Hotel stands, Nos.
60, 62 and 64, Chestnut-st,.
Also, the three lots opposite said Hotel, Nos. 59, 61
and 63, Chestnut-st., giving a front of over 600 feet on
Chestnut-st., and runningback 236 feet to other streets.

other streets.
Also, lots Nos. 5 and 7, on Market-st., fronting 210 feet
on Market-st., and running back same width 200 feet to
Rail Road street.
The Hotel property is too well known throughout the
Union, to require an elaborate description. It is the
best paying property in the Southern States, situated, as
it is, immediately at the large joint Passenger Depot of
the four Rail Roads now running and terminating here.
The Nashville & Chattanooga, Memphis* Charleston,
East Tennessee & Georgia, and Western «fc Atlantic R.
Roads are now complete ; and the Wills Valley & North

pleted and terminate here in a year or two more. A
great portion of the grading being now complete, and a
portion of the iron having been purchased, over twenty
miles ot it will be laid and running this winter, and oth
er contemplated Roads, among them the Hoad connect
ing Chattanooga with Cincinnati (Chattanooga & Ken
tucky Central). The House has been doing a steady,
heavy and increasing business without, opposition, since
October, 1850, and its prospects for a continued increase,
are very great.
Lots No's. 59, 61 and 63, Chestnut street, and Lots No’s.
2 and 3 Carter streets, are very valuable, being situated
so near the Depot.
Lots No’s. 5 and 7, Market street, are fine business
Lots, being situated equal distant between the business
portion of town and river, and have now erected upon
them two large and commodious brick Store Rooms, ad
mirably adapted to a heavy Produce and Grocery Trade.
There will also be sold at same time the joint
NEGROES,
Among whom, are Cooks, House Servants, Ironers,
M ashers, <fcc., <tc„ all of whom are valuable.
Terms of Sale, (except as to the Negroes, which will
be sold for cash,) one third Cash. The balance in six
semi-annual payments, with 6 percent added, the pur
chaser giving notes with approved security.
