. Where the Honey goes to.
Look ont from Murray Hill ono or there bright Oc
tober mornings, and you may see acres upon acres of
land divided Into Avenues and Streets, and covered
over with hundreds and hundreds of new buildings.
They are not mere teuemeuts which your eyes rest
upon, but splendid edifices, many of them palaces, of
brown stone and marble, or of beautiful brick with
spacious porticos, rich cornices, elegant balconies,
and every thing upon a scale of the most extensive
and magnificent character. Their foundations rest fat
beneath the surface of the earth, and they tower three,
four, live and six Btores, above its surface. Borne of
‘ them have a front of thirty, forty, and fifty, and more
feet, with a depth of fifty, sixty and seventy feet, and
extensive rooms on all the stories of the most attrac
tive, and to those who desire “ ample room and verge
enough ”• to dwell in,amidst a crowded city, the most
inviting proportions. In no other city in the United
States, and in very few Europen cities, is so much
money expended to erect showy buildings as there is
in New York, and we presume that at least one thou
sand aacb buildings are now in the course of erection
on the Island. Down town one or two hundred thou
sand dollars, are expended in lots for Banka, Insu
rance Officers, Stores, Ac., and much of the lower
part of the city, within a few years has been mata-
morphoeed for that parpose, but np town the spare
thousands and millions go into atone and mortar, and
to an extent tbat sometimes makes ns think there is
something too mnob of this.
ir hair the money expeuded in adomiog the outside
of a bouse, was expended in making it comfortable
and convenient within, much better would it be for
the health and happiness of tho inmates, and so, too,
if half the money spent upon adorning the bodies of
tho inmates were appropriated in improving the in
tellects and hearts or the occupants, how vast would
be tho incrcoso of knowledge, and how extended the
charities and kindnesses ot the world.
But the evil of so much external show rests not
alone upon the 'goodly outside which falsehood bath.'
A long train of consequences follow. The fifty, sev
enty, ot ono hundred thousand dollars expended up
on stone and mortar, often consumes tho entire means
of the possessor. The investment is not in a house
and home, but in pride and vanity. Mortgages exist
to plague and wrong a man out of comfortable sleep
by night, and pleasant thoughts by day. And in the
course or nature ho dies, possessed of thousands in
bouse and lands, with an estate which .must bo sacri
ficed and sold, bocauso neither his widow nor his chil
dren are able to retain it. The old or new bumestead
goes into new hands, the old ocunpants go into hnm-
bier dwellings, and pride and vanity reap their re
ward, uot merely in the division and reduction of for
tune, but in bad habits, evil passions, and a remem
brance of tbe post—anything out grateful to the mem
ory of the dead. Thus thousands live and die in New
York, aod thus, too, year after year, fortunes are exr
pended doing no good to any body but those who
build houses and speculate upon other peoples' mise
ries.— New York Express.
An Incident In Harried Life.
Sorae'thlrteen years since a couple ot loving ones
were married a short distance from this city, and soon
after tbo husband went to sea. A few months passed
and tbe ybung wife received news tbat tbe ship which
her husband bad sailed was lost at sea. and ail had
perished. Tills report was subsequently corroborat
ed. Timo rolled on, and after a lapse of Borne seven
years tho widow married an industrious and hard
working mechanic, who for a long time past,and still
Is employed by a firm in Cornbill. This last marriage
proved a very happy one to both parties, and matters
passed between them pleasantly as ceuld be desired,
until some days since, when, to their utmost surprise
the first husband of the lady made his appearance
claimed Ids wife. Legal counsel was consulted by
both parties, and the result was, that tbo lady felt
herself compelled to return to her first husband, ranch
to the regret of the second, whose home is now deso
late.—HoMon Journal.
How a Pabtle Journal should be Conducted.
The following paragraph expresses so justly and
fully our ideas upon the manner in which a public
journal dibonld be conducted, tbat we earnestly
commend it to tbe perusal of onr readers:
A press to be truly Independent must in tbe outset
be intelligent—for a liberal and intelligent mind
alone can lie Independent, because inch alone can bo
dispassionate. It should view men and their actions
through a dispassionate medium—approve or con
demn npon tbe elevated grounds of truth, not through
tbe distorted medium or prejudice, or ignorant as-
■amptlsn. Tbe idea tbat it requires Independence to
condemn this or tbat rice, is one of the moat singu
lar hallucinations tbat can get a bold In an editor’s
brain. It degenerates Into tbe office of a common
scold, and partakes much of tbe feeling tbat makes a
coward fight for fear of being called a coward. Onr
idea or an Independent press Is simply to give all tbe
news—publish on all aides of all Important questions
—give yonr own views fearlessly, candidly and truth
fully—leaving tbe summing up to tbe puhlio—whose
common sense is always better than tbe opinions of a
self-laudatory independence.

Southern, no less, than, Northern Whigs, are so-
lively engaged tn efforts lo shako the confidence of
the American people in ibo present edtalnHtratlon.
i If they aooeeed—If they bring odlom upon a Pres!*-
dent aid a psrtywboei principles are those of tbe
Baltimore pUtform-they will of. coarse bring Into
power, at tbo end of Pmen's term, Whtga and sap-
porters of Whig doctrines.
It would bo well tor the people-the honest mi
whose hearts are always with their oonntry—before
joining a enuade to remove from office those now In
power, to Inquire who are likely to be their succes
sors? Granting that Messrs. PiiKon, Davis, Iiauoy
and other members of tbo administration are Hot
fenlUess, Is It likely that tho Whigs, if they anooeed
In ejecting them, will pnt hotter men In their places ?
If not, even those *wbo may not fully approve of the
oonrse of the present administration, should hesitate
to join an alllanoe for Its overthrow.
Wo may form a pretty correct opinion as to the
ebaraoter of the gentlemen from the North, with
whom our opponents would displace Pmoi, Manor,
Cushino, Camfbkll and MoClslland, by looking at
the position of the candidates whom they are bring
ing forward for high State offico In that portion of
the Union. Let us glance at New York and see
whom the Whigs are there running. The Boston
Post sketches the characters of the Whig nominees
in that great State. Look, says tbe Post, at the
ticket:
' M It ts beaded by Leavenworth. He li not only one of ll>*
most devoted of the friends of Sswsrd^bnt never did free-
seller or craxy Garrison abolitionists of Massachusetts do
more eOelent abolition service. He was a leader In tbe fa-
uona rescue of the fugitive Jerry at Syracuse, and thus he
openly, arrayed himself against the constitution and laws
of hts country. • • V .
“Tlia next on the ticket Is James 14. Cook, and the/e Is
no more deelded fiewtid man in'*11 New York 8tato 1 And
in the Influential ofai of Comptroller, he would have the
power, as ho has the will, to promote the Seward Interest.
So wo might go through. Spaulding Is next on the list, and
he, too, Is 8eward; Kirkpatrick is Seward; Gardiner (a
Seward; and thus Seward runs through the whole concern
—one only excepted, Geoi-go Wood, who is pronounced the
only Union whig on the list! He Is nominated for Judge,
with no cManct wkatmxr of an election, who, says the N. Y.
Repress, ‘ no doubt, waa put on to swear by—that there was
felr play—union and harmony.
A beautiful batch! And yet prostrate the admin
istration of Gen. Plum, oud just such men aa these
aro to be tbo successors of himself and hia friends
from tho North. Is it wonderful that tbo patriotic
among the American people shrink back from such
a consummation ? Is it wondorful tbat they should,
without any nice luquiry os to tho relativo claims of
those who havo received and thpse who failed to get
office under Pibuob, be found in all tho States rally
ing to bis support, when they know tbat his defeat
will, in the end, be the triumph of the Sewardites and
Skwabd’8 principles ? For much as tho Whigs of
certain localities and States may dislike Skwahd, it
is clear that if Pibrok and tho Democratic party arc
fumed out, Sewakd and tho Soward party must
come in.
Thus jndging, oven did wo seo much less to com
mend in tbe present administration than we do, we
should feel bound to sustain it. We would sooner
*• bear the ills wo have than fly to others tbat we
know not of or rather, that tee do knrno of.
But for ourselves, wo rejoino to be able to say that
there bos never been an administration since wo were
interested in politics whose beginnings wo so thorough
ly approve as that of Gen. Pierce. From the day of
his nomination—posted up as wo then were in his
history—until now,our confidence in bis patriotism
and capacity has never wavered for an hour. We
believed then that he would make—we believe, even
more implicitly now, that he is making an excellent
President. Bo believing, we are for him, let who may
be against him.
Got. IX. V. Johnson.
On the arrival of the intelligence at Milledgcvillo
that Judge Johnson was elected, a large number of
the citizens of that piaco waited upon him in a pro
cession to congratulate him on bis triumph. His re
sponse is reported in the Federal Union. It is equally
honorable to his head and his heart. In one respect
we think be concedes too mnch—at least by implica
tion. It is when he speaks of the severity with which
the merits of tho two candidates were discussed during
the canvass by the press. As regards Judgo John
son, it is true that his claims were discussed with se
verity, and with more than severity—with the most
discreditable abusiveueas and scurrility—by the Whig
papers. But not so as regards Mr. Jenzinb. To
wards him the tono of tbo Doraooratio presses—as
suredly, that of our own and moist ’of the rest—was
uniformly respectful. While leading Whig prints
were ridiculing Judgo Johnson as a " Swedenbour-
gian,” “ Spirit Rapper and Table Turner,” we do not
recollect a single offensive personality brought te
bear by Democratic journals against Mr. Jenkins.—
We are confident tbat we are not claiming too much
for ourselves and our cotcinporarics of the same faith,
when we assert that the courao of tha Democratic pa
pers towards Mr. Jbnkins, was in striking and admi
rable contrast with tbat of tho Whigs towards Mr.
Johnson.
But we are kecplngour readers too long , from the
eloquent remarks to which we have alluded :
Gentlemen : I am pleased to see so many of you
to-night. As inyfriends and neighbors, you are here
to offer your congratulations on the result of the lato
election for Governor. This manifestation is the vol
untary and spontaneous offering of those among
whom I live, and who know me as a neighbor and
fellow-citizen. Accept, Gentlemen,my hearty thinks
for the pleasure you exhibit Tor my election to tho
Executive Chair of our beloved State.
As intelligent lreemen.yonr rejoicing implies some
thing more than gratification for my mure personal
elevation. With tbe masses of the poople,of whom
you are a portion, the success ur defeat of anyone
individual is a matter of small moment. It is insig
nificant, when woighed in the balance with tbe great
principles which were involved in the canvass. Your
visit speaks yonr Joy for the asceudancv of Democra
cy—its vindication at tbe ballot box—the popular ap
proval and support of the Administration of Frank-
lin Pierce. The real question was, whether the people
of Georgia would " rebuke ” our President; array
themselves in a sectional organized opposition to bis
policy, or whether they wonltj, stand with the great
National Democracy in its support, until it shall be
fully developed and have a fair trial before tho oonn
try. They havo deliberately chosen the latter posi
tion and placed Georgia in compuuy with twenty-
seven of tho other States of the Confederacy, which
favor the Administration of Franklin Pierce. It is a
proud spectacle, to see twenty-oigbt of tho thirty-one
States of the Union, all stauiflng on the Democratic
platform, and maintaining triumphantly the princi
ples of Jefferson, Jackson and Polk. I congratulate
you gentlemen, on the brilliant future which it opens
up to our happy country. It betokens the prosperity,
and the perpetuity of the Union.
But, Gcntlemon, while we rejoice at the triumph of
Democratio principles, let me beg you to discard
from your bosoms, any feeling of vindictiveness to
wards our opponents. It is unworthy of you os free
men—It is unworthy of you as Democrats. They aro
our fellow citizens, and the masses of them aro as
honest aa wo are. in their opinions ; while we Indulge
in the glories of victory, let us not forget to be mag
nanimous te tbe vanquished.
The contest wblohnaa just closed was one of un
usual virulence. It has been conduoted, on both
sides, with a fierce determination to conquer. The
press has discussed, with unparalleled severity, tbe
merits and demerits of both the Gubernatorial candi
dates. But amidst all, it Is gratifying to me to know,
tbat the kindly personal relations between me and
my respected opponent have not suffered the slightest
disturbance. Charles J. Jenkins is an amiable aud
abte man. -We have traveled together through a
large portion of upper Georgia. We have eaten and
slept together, we have met each other In political
debate ; and I have always found him courteous and
frank in his bearing, and, it is with unfeigned pleas
ure, that I state, that. in not a solitary instance, has
be Indulged an unkind personal reflection. It was
my purpose to reciprocate.at all tlmea, bis elevated
end gentlemanly bearing ; and If I have said or done
augbt to wound bis feelings, I am not aware of it. If
I have, I take occasion. In this presence, And at my
own bouse, to make tbe amende honorable. As ft
could be no disgrace to bare been beaten by him, I
esteem It tbe highest possible compliment, to be pre
ferred to sack a man m Charles J. Jenkins. Tbe val-
ueof the compliment Is Increased, if possible, by tbe

Tbe occasion, gentlemen, Is suggestive of many re
flections touching tbe points and mode of altaox by
which our Opponents have Industriously sought to do-
feat my election. Of many of them, I will not trust
myself to speak. They are so false in feet, and so
unnneronsfn spirit, tbat I wU! not yield to the temp
tation to speak of them aa they deserve. Bat their
leading design stands out too prominently revealed,
not to arrest tbe attention of tbe moot careless ob
server of the progress of the canvass. That design
wastaaedooe the Union Democrats,to abandon their
cherished principles. It was only In this way, that
they oould indulge a shadow of hope of success. For
this purooee, two prnmlnont Ideas were constantly
held op before their minds, and pressed with an ur-
S noy worthy of » better cause. The first was. that
e Conservative organisation was indispenslblo to
tbe maintenance of the Georgia Platform, and synon

and tbat General Pierce will prove true to the Consti

Growtb and Business of Savannah,
Never iu the history of any Southern City has a
more prosperous growtb been enjoyed than by Savan
nah at this time. Within tho year past spacious and
tasteful places of business aud dwellings lmve been
erected in various parte of the city 1-white old build
ings have been re-modled, giving them all the con
venience and beauty of modern times. The several
tenements on Bull-street, extending from Congress to
Broughton, nro now being vacated, preparatory to
demolition and the erection of the now hotel. Forty
per cent, on the capital stock of the Company has
been called for, payable on or before this day (the
20tb.) The occupants of the building on tho South
west corner of Bull and Brouglitou-streets are about
vacating, and an elegant structure of brick, for busi
ness purposes, is to take the piaco of the venerable
wooden fabric, which in years gone by was not only
an ornament to its neighborhood but to tbe city. What
was but two and threo years since kuown os " the.
Commons" is now tho court end of town ; stately
brick dwellings, “ with all tho modem improve’
ments," as the New Yorkers say (for marble mantels,
grates, ranges, water and gas are ail enjoyed) occupy
the ground. Turn whichever way wo will tho most
unmistakable evidences of thrift and general proeperi
ty greet the view. Onr wharves are enlivened by
almost constantly discharging cargoes of merchandize;
wholesale, retail, forwarding, commission and ship
ping morchante are full of business; our mechanics
are overrun with work, for which they aro prompt
ly and liberally paid; in a word all departments of
Industry “ stick out wi’h fatness," almost literally
proving this a laud flowing with milk aud honey, as
it truly is ono in which grows tho olive and the
pnmegrauate.
Judging from tbe past and the indications of the
present, it is not too much to bolievc that our city in
extent and population will more than double within
tbo next ten years. Let tbe same liberal foresight be
continued wbich for the past few years bas character
ized our people, and we may justly claim ono of the
most important, as wo now do ono of the most pros
perous, cities in tbo Union.

The Estate of the Late Hr. Rantool.
The Louisville Democrat stated some time since,
tbat tho administrator* of Robert Rantool, Jr., had
received the enormous sum of $350,000, for his share
in the Illinois Central Railroad.
To this tbe Chicago Democrat replies:
The administrators of Mr. Banioul have not re
ceived one dollar from the Illinois Central Railroad
C °As P one'of the corporators, Mr. Bantonl had one
twelfth of the capital stock of the Illinois Centre!
Railroad Company. He died insolvent, and bis right
to tbe first million of the capital stock of the com
pany bod become extinct, under a mortgage that his
friends knew nothing of until too late. The family
lost their rights, and this was the first psrtlcle of
•took that ever passed from the corporators. When
the capital stock was Increased, the question arose
who should have Ur. Rantonl’a share. Tbo holdera
of Mr. R.'i original stock olalmed It, bnt the oompany
resolved togivo it to Mrs. Rantool. The matter wu
referred, and It resulted that Mra. Ran tool and chil

per cent has been called In upon it, which her friends
and relations have provided for her. This is tbe
whole stonr. How mmJb Mrs. Rantool and ‘children

Legal Responsibility of Fathers*
A father is not responsible for the business debts of
an intent ohUd—i.a^acbild. under 21-- nor Is he or
dinarily responsible for food,clothing, or other necee-
sartes furnished the Infant by third parties, lathe
case mcntolned, therefore, the fether would not bo
liablo to the son's creditors. Tho debts of tbe sou
would be voidable obligations, wbioh might he rati
fied after he became of age; in wbioh eaeo judgment
oould bo recovered thereon against tho son by bis
creditors. There is much popular eiror on tbo sub

an implied promise to pay on the part of tho parent}
but what la actually necessary will depend on the
. precise situation of the infont, and wbioh the party
giving the infant must bo acquainted with at his per
il. No man can take upon himself to dictate what
clothing a child shall wear, at what tlrao they shall
be purchased, or of whom. On this subject, Chan
cellor Kent holds tho following language :
" A father la not bound by tho contracts of his son
even for articles snltablo and necessary, unless an
actual authority bo proved, or tho circumstances be
sufficient to imply one. Were it otherwise, a father
who had an imprudent son might be prejudiced!© an
Indofiuito extent. What is necessary for the child Is
left to the discretion of a parent; aud where the in
fant Is under the control ol bis parent, there must bo

third pereoh can interfere and furbish them anil

Almost everybody in Boston knows that Father
Streeter maVries more folks in the courao of a cur
rout year thau any two or ten divines in the United
States. It. boats all how many men and women tbe
old fellow "ties up” and causes to trot in double
harness ail their life. Not long since a rural district
J outh and bis Psyche came to Father Streeter to be
xed out according to law and gospel. Well, the old
gentleman put ’em through in tho regular manner
and—charged. ” How much hev I got to pay fer
this Job?” soys the newly manufactured husband,
drawing out fils pooket-book. "Oh,well.”says the
old gentleman, " I always leavo that to the bride
groom ; as be feels ho pays.” “ Woll, I don’t want
to be mean, Mr. Streeter, about tnis affair, you know-
I don't care a cent, by Ned! what you charge; only
tell how much would be right ?” “I'm not particul
lar, sir, so suppose we say flvo dollars.” " Five do-
larsl Sam Hill,but you do stick it on! Why,I
know of a feller you married last fail for two dollars.”
" Very likely, sir,” said the old gentleman, " I did,
but he’s a regular customer. I’ve married him five
times, and can afford to do it lower.”
Cure for the Croup,
Dr. Forbes, of Boston, relates,in a late number of
the Medical Journal, a case iu which a severe attack
of croup wua cured by the application of sponges,
wrung nut of hot water, to the throat, together with
water treatment, which ho describes as follows:
" Soon after making the first application of spon
ges to the throat, I wrapped the child in a woolen
blanket, wrung out of warth water, as a substitute
for a warm, bath, and gavo twenty drops of the wiue
of antimony ini-little sweetened water,which slio
swallowed wlthwlffloulty. T persevered in the appli
cation of the hot, moist sponges for an hour, when
the child was so much relle
leave it.
'•These applications were continued through the
night, and in tho morning the child was well.”
It will never do to trific with this terrible dis
The quicker tho remedies arc applied the better. In
stead ofantimony^we would recommend small quan
tities of alum water, given every ten or fifteen min
utes, until the child vomits.

Jenny Lind Goldschmidt.—This esteomed lady
baa written a letter to a lady of Dr. Cox’s congrega
tion, Brooklyn, N.Y., in which she feelingly denier
the scandal that was bruited abroad in relation to
disagreements between herself and husband. Dr.
Cox says:
Her reelings have been deeply wounded by tho sto
ry that her husband is unkind to her, inconsidorato,
reckless, and evon cruel. Not to examine such re
ports, it is enough for tno to say, that, horself being
witness and judgo, they aro all totally false ; that
every envy and malaco, or foolish loquacity coupled
with ignorance, invented thcmal! : that nothing but
tho diametrical revereo is true of her " dear Otto;”
that no woman In tho world has more reason to bo
grateful to God for her husband ; and that no man in
tbe world could be a more delicate and complete pat
tern of conjugal touderucas, consideration and affeo-
tion. This is but a brief epitome of wbat, with full
heart, she writes to her frleud aforesaid. She writes
indeed plainly, without reserve, aud without affeo-
tutiou ; but not without sensibility, at once stung
and virtaously indignant.
The following is of German origin, and has been
published hundreds of times. But as an item of infor
mation to the Bingle men of America it never can bo
published too often:
"Who marries for love takes a wife; who marries
for convenience takes a mistress; who marries for
consideration takes a lady. You have a wife for your
self, a mistress for your house aud friends, n lady for
the world, Your wife will agree with yon, yonr mis
tress accommodate you, your lady will manage yon.
Your wire will take care of your household, your mis
tress of your house, your lady of appearance. If yon
aro sick yonr wife will nurse you, your mUtress visit
you, and your lady will Inquire after your health.
You take a walk with your wife, a ride with your
mistress, and join parties with your lady. Your wife
will share your gner, your mistress your mouey, and
your lady yonr debts. If you are dead your wife will
shod tears, your mistress lament, and yonr lady wear
mourning."
