A Hapty Village. — The Warrentown (N,

try. This is sa) ing much for our village, but it

Murderer caught.— Jas. Williams was ar
rested in Hamburg, S. C., and committed in
Augusta on Saturday, 14tli inst., for trial, for the
murder of a man and his wife named Moore, in
1 hnmas County, Ga. They were on their way
from North Carolina to Florida, and were killed
by the blow of an axe, for the purpose of robbing
them, which was done, it is supposed, by the
accused, who was with them, and knew that
they had a quaniity af money.
A Queer Potatoe. — A gentleman the other
day, says the Washington Republic, presented
to us an Irish potatoe, of about three ounces
weight, that is shaped like a heart, as perfectly
as a heart was ever shaped in an any picture
book in the world We asked him whore lie
hail procured it, and lie replied that it had been
picked up in a potatoe patch away down in the
8 late ol M nine, and was sent to this rent re of the
Union, whither all the hearts in Maine tend.
We do not know a great deal about the con.
servatism of Maine, but we suppose that—unless
hearts of the people are prepared to do usjuslice,
and not to promise, it, —“the hearts of Maine '
will he a about as influential in saving this Union,
„s this very potatoe will be It grew in free soil,
and is as much of a heart so far as life, vigor etc.
are concerned, as this is a Union in fact, when
we are disunited in feeling, and one part
of the country waging a hostile war upon
the other.
Adventurers look out. -President Buona
parte says, in his recent message to the French
Deputies, that he had sent a strong reinforce
ment to assist the Spanish Government, on
hearing of the movement to take possession of
Cuba—and if another attempt is made, “Bony”
will be “thar” to put in his demurrer to such
enterprises. Adventurers will have to mee-
Spain, France and doubtless England, too, if
they capture this Island. However, Howell
Cobb is going to do that business up brown in
the next Campaign, under the name of Uncle
Sam—so all the world had better not brag too
much. Hurrah for Howell Cobb, Cuba and
the Union ! !
Funeral of Hon. Rich'd M. Johnson —The
obsequies of this aged and distingished patriot
took place at Frankfort on 20th ult., and were
attended with every demonstration ol respect •

private business in the city were closed, in bon
or of the occasion- The procession was largo

Another or Jenny Lind's Good Deeds
The citizens of Calais, Me., were much pleas
ed, and the heart of a needy inoman cheered, hv
the receipt, on Tuesday, of a check on the bank j
for S3OO, drawn by Miss Lind in favor of Sarah
W. Clark, widow of tlie late Joseph N. Clark, i
mate ofbarqtie Sophia of Calais,who was lost on j
the 3d ofSeptember, in taking off the crew of
the Swedish barque Johanna, which was in a
sinking condition.

Fugitive arrest at C a ßist.E, Pa.— The Car
lisle Herald says that Moses Jones, a colored ;
man residing in that borough, was arrested as!
a fugitive slave at the suit of Edward L. Fant,
of Fauquier county, Va. Upon examination it
was found that Moses did not answer, in any one
particular, to the description of the alleged fugi
tive, and he was accordingly discharged.
Genuine.—Among other incidents at the late
fire in San Francisco, the following is related by
the Alta Californian, wirh is worthy of notice;:
—“ln the midst of the fire, a mnn bore in his
arms for some distance a keg of gunpowder, so
much on fire that one of the hoops was burned
off while he held it in his hands. He held the
keg, however, until those about him advanced
and pinched out the flames.”
O' Cassius M. Clay is lecturing against the
i Fugitive Slave Law in Cincinnatti.
COURSE. OF* VIRGINIA.
The following sensible remarks are taken
from the Lyncburg (Va.) Republican, a South
ern Rights paper of sterling merit.
“We are opposed, however, to anymore reso
lutions upon this subject, unless, bond and secu
rity be given that they will be executed when
adopted. The legislature has sworn enough in
r landers, and should now act, or forever after
wards hold its peace The miserable policy of
adopting “patrotic” resolutions, just to hack out
from, when the time to enforce them arises, is
as disgraceful to a State as a similar blustering
policy in an individual, and has done more to
prostrato the cause of the South, than all other
causes combined. Pass strong non-intercourse
resolves it you please—do any thing to arrest if
possible the tide of Northern aggression now
tbreating us with ruin—but for mercy sake
do not make Virginia say the fourth time that
if so and so he done, she will do so and so at
all hazards ! No more platforms, gentlemen, to
he broken through when pressure conies.”
Something must be done. But what is it ?
Why, the North must stop her movements of
aggression. But the Nor.lt plainly shows that
site will not do that. How then ? The Georgia
Convention says that the people will resist an
attempt at the repeal of the Fugitive law. Let
that resolution be carried out. “Resolves” to
resist are worth no more to the South than the
Cotton Union Meetings in the North, which say
they will abide by the laws of the land—but yet
will not offer a single arm to aid tile Southern
master to recapture bis property. Let Georgia,
Virginia, the South, and North do more, and
talk and resolve less.
agitation begun.
We quote front the Savannah Morning News*
“That miserable Marplot, as the N. Y. Ex
press,caWa him, Joshua Gidihngs, has opened
his batteries in the House against the Fugitive
Slave Bill. In his speech on Monday last, he
contended that the President had no right to ve
to a bill repealing that act ; that the act itself
was unconstitutional, and could not and ought
not to be executed. Slavery was a State insti
tution over which the general government bad
no control, either to regulate, uphold or abolish.
He contended that the citizens of the non-Blave
holding States could not be constitutionally
called upon to aid in the arrest or surrender of
a fugitive slave. No power of this government
could compel the people of the North to involve
themselves in this crime. He said THAT THE
LAW MOULD NOT BE AND HAD NOT
BEEN ENFORCED IN NEW ENGLAND,
NEW-YORK, OR THE WESTERN COUN
TRY. THE PRESIDENT COULD NOT LN
FORCE IT BY Ills ARTILLERY AND HIS
BAYONETS, ANI) IK HE SHED A DROP
OF BLOOD HE WOULD SOUND THE
DEATH-KNELL OF THE UNION.
“We are not disposed to attach any great de
gree of importance to the declarations of such
men as Gidihngs, though we have from the first
doubted the possibility of enforcing the Fugi
tive Slave Law. If it is enforced, the North
must enforce it. If it is not enforced the Union
cannot he enforced. The fate of the law and
tile Union are in the hands of the conservatism
of the North. Every true patriot will await the
result with anxious interest.”
We differ from the Editor of the News in re
lation to the importance of Woolly-Head Gtn
dings. He is aco partner of Seward, whose
pirty recently succeeded in Ncw-York,and ern.
bodies the sentiment of the Northern people as
a mass And however obnoxious he may be to
Southern npprobium, lie is but in the van of the
Northern Abolition depredators,and has always
been there. This same Fugitive Law has been
already attacked in Congress, and if that body
—by the instrumentality of its Free Soil major
ty in the House and Senate, —does not repeal
( he statute, it will be because they expect to gull
| the South into a caucus for another Northern
President, a few more glorious Free States, a
good working majority of fifty in the House,
j tind ten or twelve in the Senate and then—
Southerners! swear allegiance to the Northern
| sceptre, to Northern print-piles and purses, or—
the guillotine awaits you !
Employments —By the U. S. census of 1840,
it was ascertained that there were,at that time
in this country, 3,719,851 persons employed in
agricultural pursuits; 791,959 in manufactures;
117,607 in commerce; 15,211 in mining; 56,021
navigating the ocean; 33,076 in internal naviga
tion ; and 65,255 at the learned professions.

wore straightway removed from an indignant

Mr. Junius Smith is still devoting his atten.

ROM VS CATHOLICISM IX KXGLAXI).
1 be Protestants in England have become ex
ceedingly alarmed at the extraordinary growth -
of Ronianiam in that community, and have taken
measures, or are about to do so, to check it.— I
The following address to Queen Victoria in de
fence of the Catholics, is said to have been left
at the various Roman Catholic Churches for
signatures. It is thought to he written by Card. 1
inal Wiseman :
To the Queen's most Excellent Majesty —
May it plc-ase your Majesty: We the under
signed subjects of your Majesty, residing in
England, and proiessing the Roman Catholic
religion, beg to approach your Majesty s throne,
there to express our sentiments of unimpaired
and unalterable fidelity to your Majesty's Royal
person, crown, and dignity.
At a moment when attempts are being made to
impeach our loyalty, we consider it a duty to
give Iresli utterance to these our feelings.
During centuries of exclusion from the privi
leges of the constitution, and from the rights en
joyed by their fellow subjects, the Catholics of
England remained true to their allegiance to the
crown of this realm, and yielded to none in their
readiness, at all times, to defend its rights and
its prerogatives against every foo. And now
trial, under your Majesty's wise rule, we enjoy
equal participation wi It others in the benefits of
the constitution, we are more than ever anima
ted with the same sentiments of fidelity and
attachment, and are equally ready In give proof,
whenever occasion may present itself, of the
sincerity of our loyal professions.
The dearest of the privileges to which Wc
have thus been admitted by the wisdom of the
British legislature, is that of openly professing
and practising the religion of our fathers, in
communion with the See of Rome. Under its
teaching we hsve ever learned, as a most sacred
loson, to give to Cttsar the things that are of
Caesar, as w e give to God the things that aro of
God. In whatever, therefore our Church lias at
any time done for establishing its regular system
ol government amongst its members in this island,
we bt-g most fervently and most sincerity to as
sure your Majesty thattbe organization granted
to us is entirely ecclsiastical, and its authority
purely spiritual. But it leaves untouched every
title of your Majesty’s rights, authority, power,
jurisdiction, and prerogative, as our sovereign,
and as our sovereign over these realms, and does
not in the leastwise diminish or impair our pro
found reverence, our loyalty and attachment to
your Majesty’s august person and throne; and
wo humbly assure your Majesty that, among
your Majesty’s subjects, there exists no class
who more solemnly, more continually, or more
fervently pray for the stability ofyour Majesty’s
throne, for the preservation of your Majesty’s
life, and for the prosperity of your Majesty's
empire, than the Catholics of England, in whose
religion loyalty is a sacred duty, and obedience
a cliristain virtue.

DR. CARY COX,
a a Informs the Public that he is prepared
C| for the reception of persons suffering
with chronic diseases, at his Water Cure
or Electro Hydropathic Estalilishment, near
Marietta, Cobb county, Ga. His Baths are sit
uated near the principal Buildings. The sceno
iti the immediate vicinity is picturesque, being
near Kennesaw Mountain. The scenery, pure
w a ter, the great elevation above the level of the
ocean, (being 450 feet above even the Tennessee
line on the Western and Atlantic Railroad,) the
convenience of access by Railroad, the refined
and intellectual society, and pure atmosphere,
have all most admirably conspired to render the
location suitable for an establishment of the
kind. i,i
The Proprietor deems it needless so say any
thing relative to the curative powers of either
Water or Electricity, as the general mass of the
people in this country have attained a know ledge
of tiieir great value in removing disease. He
flatters himself that he is able with pore Wafer
and Electricity, to remove any character or des
cription of disease that could, tinder other treat
ment or circumstances, possibly be removed—
together with a numerous host, that all other
remedies must necessarily fail to remove.
The expenses per dav, for a Patient at his
Establishment, will be for BoarJ, use of Electric
Shocks and Baths, with Water Baths, Medical
advice and attention, w ith ordinary attention nf
Servants, $1 50: w hich includes all necessary
expenses,except washing an outfit sos the sweat
ing process, bandaging, &c.—payable weekly in
advance.
For further particulars,post paid communion
