W e have not in man| montlis hr on ns deeply interested in any effort of a member of Congress, as we were in this very great speech of the Sen ator of Louisiana, a brief synopsis of which will be found on the first page of this paper, to which we invite the attention of the reader. It lias given Mr. Sooi.c rankamon the very foremost men in the able body to which he belongs. We doubt exceedingly if there he another member of the Senate wlio could deliver such a speech and we regret that its length prevents onr insert ingi. entire. In our poor judgment, as regards every, and the very highest criteria of a finished parliamentary display, this speech far excels any that we have had from Mr. Clay and .Mr. Web ster, and is even a more masterly effort than Mr. Ukkrien s great speech, which, until now, has not been equalled since the first of the ses sion, by any man. .Mr. Socle’s exposition of the claims of the South to an equal participation in the national domain will hereafter ho the Southerner’s text-book, for nothing will likclv be added to it,as nothing more is needed. He gives us a piece of cotemporary history in con. nexion with the ratification of the Treaty of Guadeloupe Hidalgo, which, hy the fairest and most cogent implication, settles forever the true interpretation of that treaty, as to its effect on slavery admission. We have nowhere else seen this strong point made. Mr. Socle says that while the treaty was before the Senate undergo ing its ordeal of ratification, Mr. Baldwin, of Connecticut, moved to insert the following words into the body of the treaty, viz: “Provided , There shall be neither slavery nor involuntary servitude in the Territories hereby ceded, otherwise than in punishment of crimes, whereof the party shall have been duly convict, cd.’’ In Executive session this proviso was voted down by 13 yeas, to 38 nays—commanding the meagre vote of one-fourth only of a full Senate. Now every man in the Union knows that had this provision been incorporated into the treaty, it never could have passed. The South (leaving out that broken stick, Delaware,) could have cast, and would have done so, twenty-eight votes against so obnoxious a treaty as this would have been, with the proviso inserted. The point in favor oftlic insertion was fairly and fully made, and asdisliuctly disavowed and condemned by the Senate. \V hat could have been more deci sive of the understanding of the parties North and Soul/i of this law. But to leave nothing out that would be necessary to demonstrate to a dead certainty the fact, that the good faith of the Gov ernment would be compromised by tlie Wilmot Proviso directly or indirectly being applied to the new territory, it is stated, as a part of the history of the treaty, that Mexico did most oner, getically press this anti-slavery restriction upon the Government, when in the very act of ceding the territory to us. In the instructions of the Mexican Government, carefully drawn and first passed under the review of a full cabinet, it was attempted to bind the United States to keep the territory about to he transferred to us, free from slavery. Air. Tkist told the Mexican Cotnmis sioners distinctly that though lie participated personally with them in their objections and hostility to the institution of slavery, in the most solemn nanner, that the word slavery must not so much as ho named in tiie treaty—that the 1 resident of the United Slates would not dare. to submit any such treaty to the Senate—and if .Mexico could make the domain proposed to be conveyed to us, of ten fold its real value, and would “cover it over wi.h pure gold, upon the single condition that slacery should he excluded therefrom ,” he could not entertain the offer for one moment, nor even think of communicating it to Washington. In addition to all this, Mr. Socle quotes the IXth Article of the Treaty, as originally drawn by the Commissioners of both Governments, and then shews how materially this very article was amended hy our Senate. The article as it first read secured to the Mexico- American citizens the enjoyment of “their Übcr. ty, their property and the civil lights now rested in them, according to the Mexican lows." —And then goes on next to provide that their political | rights should boon an equality with those of the inhabitants of the other territories and at least equally good with those of the inhabitants of Louisiana and llie Florid,-is, alien these territo ries were ceded to us. Now, when this article came tinder the review of the Senate, it was completely razeed, and only provided that the transferred Mexicans should he admitted at the proper time, (and that time to he judged of hy Congress,) to the rights of citizens of these States, and in the mean time, should be maintained and protected in the free enjoyment of their liberty and property, and secured in the free exercise of their religion. This was all. And yet it is gravely contended that these poor creatures, to whom this Government would not even vouch safe the full rights and position of cii!»""" its good pleasure, and until they had passed a prescribed probation, are to override the Con stitution of the Union and the rights, privileges and feelings of eight millions of people. Wo invite the attention of our readers who have not seen this superlative effort ol Mr. Soule’s, to read it cuiefu'ly, and see how on pregnable our position is made And wo lug the pardon of those who have, for giving this ex tended notice of this speech, and the brie! ex tracts from it to bo found on the first page,which w ill amply repay even a second reading for we were unwilling that any who are interested in the great argument of our cause, should neglect to avail themselves of this superior light. AN c think that hereafter the “ lex loci,' will be a very harmless sort of thing. UJ* A young Scotch lady, Miss Luvioia Down ie, has undergone, with fatal issue, an operation to extract a pin which was lately discovered lo he in her ear. When a very little girl, twenty years ago, Miss Downie put a pin in her mouth, and presently afterwards, as she believed, swal lowed it. A festering in her ear lately revealed the existence of a foreign substance, and after great sulforhig the lost pin was extracted ; it had become much bent in working its course through the tissues and bony structures. '1 ho young lady suffered long and intensely, and died on tha 4th of April. Distressing Casualty —The Milledgeville Presbyterian of yesterday, has the following “Avery solemn and affecting Providence, we learn, occurred at Oglethorpe University, on Wednesday morning last. Two of the Students, Mr. L. P. McCitciien and Mr. P B Luce, were on their way to their boarding house to break fist, when a sudden thnnder shower over took them. The lightning struck the umbrella under which they were walking and shattered it to atoms, and the fluid entering at the top of the rap of Mr. Luce and passing down on his leftside and on the right side of the other, kill ed them both on the spot. They were room-mates and members of the Freshman Class—both of them lovely, pious and promising young men, and candidates for the Christian Ministry. On returning from their mor ning recitation they had retired to their room, as was their daily custom, and united in prayer. It was but a few minutes after they had risen from •heir knees, anti left their dormitorv, that the awful calamity occurred. When they were found by their fellow students, they were lying side by side on their faces with their arms still locked together —“They were lovely in their lives and in their death they were not divided ” Florida.— Major John Beard, was nomina ted hy a convention of the Democratic Party on the 17th inst. as a candidate for Representative to Congress from that State at the ensuing elec tion. Major Beard, in accepting the nomina tion says : “My trust, however, not for the suc cess of the Democratic Party only, hut for the permanence of the Federal Union, is based upon the truth and force of those principles, which the immortal Jefferson made the ground-work of that party, and which were illustrated by the lamented Calhoun.” The Marianna Whig of the 15th inst., com plains of excessive drought in West Florida. A shower sufficient to settle the dust has not fallen for two months. Cotton did not appear to suffer and rarely ever presented a more promising ap pearance—but corn was sustaining injury. ID’ The late Professor Caldwell, of Dickinson College, said to his wife, u short time before bis death. You will not, lam sure, lie down upon your lied and weep, when lam dead. You will not mourn for me, when God has been so good to me. And when you visit the spot where I lie, do not choose a sad and mournful time do not go in the shade of evening, or in the dark night. These are no times to visit the grave of one who hopes and trusts in a risen Redeemer: but come in the morning, in the bright sunshine and when the birds arc singing.” Lake of Pitch.— ln the Island of Trinidad there is a lake of pitch about half a mile long, and one fourth wide. It is a dreary looking place surrounded by shrubbery of the most beau tiful flowers The pitch is dug out oftlie lake, boiled and left to harden, then sent to market. The pilch is dug no lower than 12 inches, and however much is taken out one day, the pit is always filled up in the morning. The supply scents to be incxhaustable. Southern Eloquence.— A Georgia lawyer practising at the Marietta bar, says the Newark Union, pleading the cause of his client in an ac tion for slander, addressed the jury in the follow ing impressive and convincing language: “May it please the Court, and gentlemen of the jury, when I was a young man, cutting’round among the gals, I often chucked the pretty crea tures under the chin, and called them rogues ; but, gentlemen of the jury, I didn’t mean to call 'em thieves, or ebarge ’em with stealing. I on ly meant that they stole young men’s hearts,and do you think that they sued mo for slander? No,gentlemen of the jury they didn’t.’ The jtny <o course nine Convinced, anu acquitted his client. Spontaneous Heating oe Iron. —Cast iron when brought into the air after it had been for many years under salt water, has become red hot. In June, 183 G, some cannon halls were raised front the ship Mary Rose, which sunk in a naval engagement near the Isle of Wight, in July, 1545, nearly 300 years before. Thesebulls all became hot 011 exposure to the air, and fell to pieces. The cast iron gratings, after being long immersed in the porter vats in the large breweries of London, grow hot when the por ter is drawn oil’, from a similar cause. Winds, and Ocean Currents. —Lieut Maury,of the National Observatory, has pub lishcd a statement, owing to the investigation g carried on at the Observatory, with regard to the winds and currents, of the ocean, anew route to the equator has been discovered, which the passage of sail vessels is very much shorten- Oil . AFr MAI k Deaconess.— A young lady was ordained a Deaconess, in Pittsburg, Pa , on Tues day 28th ult., in the English Lutheran Church. Deaconesses are an order of women, who devote their lives to the various occupations of charity,and take the vows of celibacy for th is purpose. O’ The U. S. ship St. Marys, which arrived on Saturday, in the short passage of 80 days from Datava, brought Irish potatoes, live pheasj ants and chickens from China, and pomels(call ed chaddocks in the West Indies) from Ba tava. The Locusts, after an absence of seventeen years, have appeared in the nighborhood of Lew. is town, Ya. O’Six quarts of charcoal, finely pulverized i and put into a cistern of the capacity of fifteen hogsheads, will make the water sweet at any time. Well worth the trial. O’ The loss of the General Post Office De partment this year is said to he nearly three hundred thousand dollars,under the credit sys tem, allowing the deposite of unpaid letters. O’The United States, we believe, is the on ly nation that ever paid off n National debt in full, principal and interest.

PUBLiC SY.I3E.TJE.VT OF M. S. THOMSON, M. I>„ MACON , GA. a period of over thirteen years, it has - been the province of the undersigned, to present to the people of Georgia, and the sur rounding|States, the results of the use of inno cent Vegetable Medicines, in the treatment and cure of disease, as contradistinguished from poi sonous substances, to which from childhood they have been accustomed, and to whose pernicious • fleets upon the constitution, many of them are living witnesses. The success which during this long series of years, has attended his administrations, las, in many instances, been such, as to overcome the most inveterate prejudices in favor of the old order of things, and to produce instead thereof, a conviction that even in medicine, as in other branches of the physical sciences, new ideas may be advanced, and results achieved, that our ancestors would have deemed impossible, but which our posterity, thanks to the enlightenment of a coming ago, may find easy of accomplish ment. Ibis success in curing diseases of the most hopeless character, after all other means had failed, and that too, in many instances, without seeing the patient, lias long been the subject of general remark,exhibiting as it does, in bold re lief, the difference between restoring a ease that has been absolutely abandoned, and simply rais ing another, that hundreds of others could cure. Burh cases can be pointed out in almost every county in Georgia, where some poor, decrepid, helpless being, after testing every local means without avail, have sent off, as a dernier resort, a description of their diseases to a distance, in many instances hundreds ofmilcs, and received back those health restoring remedies that have restored them again to health and to society, to their own astonishment and their neighbors’ wonder, putting at nought tho sneers of antago nistic interests, and adding new finger posts at every post office and cross road, pointing the way to the city of refuge. Without subjecting himself to the charge of presumption, he would yet boldly say, that he firmly believes that nine.tenths of the so called incurable cases in Georgia, are yet within the reach of medicine, and can be cured by pursuing a proper course of medicine, with the exercise ol necessary care and perseverance, on the part of the patient, which in all cases of a lingering character, are of the lust importance. The great facilities for this kind of treatment presented in the cheap postage system, has been taken advantage of by thousands who happily can indirectly attribute their present good health to that noble specimen of liberal government; and there are thousands more who may reap the same advantages, by simply pursuing a similar course. Let the afflicted, if be cannot write himself, get his neighbor to do it for hint, give a history ol his ease, age, habits, and symptoms, the same as if lalkiug to a physician. If able, and it is convenient, enclose the fee ; if not con venient just then, a due bill for the amount will answer, (this obviates the inconvenience of ma king accounts at great distances,) anil if not able, pre-pay and mail the letter to his address, when medicines suitable to the case will be compound ed and sent with full directions. The charge for treatment is only ($5) five dol lars, monthly, a sum sufficiently small to obviate the fear of risk to any fine, and yet sufficient to preserve him from loss in his extensive admin istrations. This done, call at the post office in a reasona ble time, anil receive your medicines with ns much precision as yon would a letter; prepare and use them as directed, and persevere ; report progress monthly, or oftencr, as may he necessa ry, and closely watch the progress of the core. Having been long and extensively engaged in the treatment of diseases peculiar to females, lie would say that they may avail themselves of his knowledge, wifti the utmost confidence, in his prudence and integrity, so that in writing out their symptoms, they may express themselves with tiie necessary freedom. In some ofthe dis eases of the renal and procreative system, the medicines being more costly, the charge will be increased. Bueh cases ns require personal attention, will be treated on liberal terms in the city, where the necessary accommodations can always be had. Those wishing further information in regard to results, will address a post-paid letter to the undersigned, who will immediately mail to the applicant such documents as must disarm doubt. id. S.
