% Imnodst. Eloquent Extract, From the speech of a gentleman from Hornoy, at Faneuil Hall, Boston. . ‘Thunder an guns ! where are we . lino me a day for the citizens of Hornby, an I “ant too modest, its a dav and a halt for all creation mo u din the rest of mankind, and the people gineia ) . The world, feller citizens, is a lookin at us, an on the hetrogenbus exertion ot this here society hew man liberty depends, an liangs like a burdock to a boy’s trowsis. Ar we up to the crop ? Dus every inder vidooal feel the rasponsibilitv of gret cricsis bearin on him like a flat rock on a tode’s back ? Dus all feel like a young llerkerlanium ready to take holt an choke the orrygone stables as is wormin’ in to squeeze the daylight out of our infant liberties ? I answer — we is! Let the pot-in-tates of the hull airth hear an tremble ! Feller citizens, we have come up heree—every man prepared to take his life life in his trowsis pock et ; to presarve the union,; that blessed union—fit for, bled for and died for by aour reverend posteri ty on the bloody fields of Buena Visty, Yorktown, Madawasky an Waterlieu. This here glorious Un ion, feller citizens, is threatened with an inch of its life. By whom ? Why, by a set of onsarcumsized mean nasty critters, who cant depreciate this bles sed perlaydium that pervides every man a vine and a fig-tree —under which weve sot an auor fathers has sot, an no one darst molest or skeer us. Feller citizens :—l’m for the Union! Yes sir! And though the hull world was agin me, though the divil jined in with the aberlishunists, yet, as Webster said in his Newbury port letter —‘ P-ue stultum, santa Parissmas-Historia sacre lex taglionis, ecco signum ct broadaxy'— though pelican towered on ossy, Fd site till all was blew !’ Hear ! hear an stompiu. ‘Feller citizens : The pint we’ve mes here to con sider is ; Shall the Union be presarved : shall the star sbanklcd banner still flount an flounce in the salewbriety of the onmittigated space of either—shall the Ameriken eagle; Gocl bles him !—(stompinly the men, and sobin and snifiti by the wimmen) —shall the Ameriken eagle continue to sore aloft an—an— an do as he darned pleases ? Or shall he just be stove up an broke in like a worn aout syder berril, — aour flag torn and split like little Ephe Libbys trow sis over there by the winder, —an the glorious faowl of liberty plucked an picked like a thanksgiving ter kev ? Saints, ministers, elders, an decons forbid the latter ! Whar —I say, whar will Iloruby be found when this great battle of armygideon which is a com in on is fit? Will she be he skulking abaout like a woodchuck in a tater field, or toin the mark like a rat in the corner ? VThar aryer Libbys yer Wig gins, and yer Kyers, names illustrious in the Mady wasky war ? True, the fust run away afore he got •bar, and t’other didn’t go, but then, es wust had come to wust, thar’s no knowin what they might have did for their country. Sperits of ’76 ! een from that all the way up to this—from the hiyperbollycal conflewence of ajaycent sarcumumbiney—ye behold this drisis !—smile on your predecessors who are a bout to join issoo with ungodly aberlishunists and cussed niggers for the preservation of Union, pcrla dyuma un what nots ! Feller citerzens, I’m in airnest. A criesis is ris! And it is wakin up the free, on terrified survins of these ere still more suvriner States the reskew. Tkars a musterin’ of nations, A wakin up of snakes — Thedivil’s broken out agin, And .all creation shakes, Yes, everything is wakin’ up, un takin oflf its coat. Even the sleepy lion, Daniel Webster, is a rousin’, aud shakin his tail and mane, prepares to site for hewman rites and democratiek usages. ‘The great confounder of the Constitushun,’ as he is just ter med iu his last letter to me, very truly and gassical-i 1\ says ‘Ethan, ’ sachusetts man, nor nothin else—no, pen up yoir terkeys counteract my pow T ers —the hull continent!, however bounded, is mine ! EXCRUCIATING. SCENE IN FRONT OF A FASHIONABLE HOTEL. A gentleman dismounting from his horse—‘Sta bler, attend! refrigerate my beast allowing him twice to circumambulate yonder fountain ; that ac complished, to imbibe a moderate quantity of a queous particles ; conduct him with care to the re pository for wearied beasts, and having clothed in lustre his dirty skin by a gentle application of the vegetable material commonly called straw, suffer him to partake food which shall afford nourishment and general repose.’ Stabler (laughing)—‘W-li-at, sir V ‘Gent —‘What, sir! Stand you thus like one who has no reason in his soul, while this poor poor beast whose every pore is a font of gushing strength, grows valetudinary ’neath Sol’s oppressing rays. Ye vol atile barbarian.’ Stab.—(Laughing still more unrestrainedly)—“l can’t understand a word you say, sir ; but I sup pose you want your horse put up ?’ Gent.—‘Stupidity unequalled ! Landlord ful minate your censures against this tardy churl, who thus manifests oppugnation to my desires ; and con duct me to secluded apartments, and bring restora tives of the most vivic character to reinstate in their former power the varying energies of my exausted frame.’ Landlord (laughing)—‘l will, sir.’ Gent.—‘Preposterous: And you sir, unite in this disgraceful merriment of your minion! I should sur mise myself the first of the species you ever beheld.’ v Landlord (laughing still more) ‘lndeed you are sir.” Gent.—‘Terminate this prolix scene, and officiate as my guide to apartment. At the hour of dinner, summon me ; if weariness should have caused me to be recumbent iu posture, gently reanimate me with the fan.’ Scene 2—The Dining room. Gent. —(Seating himself at the table—the dinner over —others standing in the room. ‘lshould judge voracity and ignorance the prevailing characteristics of the mansion. I see nothing among these reek ing ruins worthy the regard of a gentleman’s palate. Waiter I desire a female fowl sufficiently but redun dantly made edible by tire. (It is brought.) Wai ter, dissect with care the same ; do not violently sep arate the parts, lest my joints should suffer disloca tion from the discordant sound. (It is done.) Wai ter place a tender portion of the breast upon my plate, with the necessary accompaniments.” (It is done as ordered, and the gentleman commences his dinner.) A wag, who, with others, had observed these pro ceedings seats himself at the table opposite our hero. Wag.—Waiter, furnish me with a female fowl.— [The waiter understands the joke, and does as bid.] Vaiter dissever the component parts. [lt, is done.) Vaiter divide those parts into portions suited to la bial capacity. [Opening his mouth and throwing himself back in his chair.] Vaiter, place one of them within the orifice before you. [Our hero begins to understand the quiz and is evidently disconcerted.] \ aiter, wag my jaws '( Amid roars of laughter and curses upon his lips, our hero rushed from the room. A Bachelors Reverie at the age of fifty. Fifty to-day! Fifty; little chance now of getting a wife and a housefull of ‘little responsibilities,’ as Fanny Wright calls them. Ileigho! I’m getting’ to be—not a middle-aged gentleman, for I have been that any time the last ten years, and may advertise 1 for a housekeeper without giving a handle toscandle to make free with my character. Twenty-five years a go, and I should have affronted the man who fore told this ; that I should be this day in an arm-chair, newspaper in hand, breakfast before me, foot on the cushion, and only one cup and two eggs on the table. Newspapers are stupid things ; I’d much rutlier chat over my morning meal. Why the deuce am I not married ! Nobody makes tea fit to drink now, and the tea never comes up to me hot. What capital tea Lucy Smith used to make. Poor Lucy ; I won der what made me think of her ? People said Lucy and I would make a match, and so we should, I sus pect, if it hadn’t been for that cursed cousin of hers. I’m sure she would have married me if I had aslo-d lier ; but I kept putting it off day after day, and lie cut me out, and be banged to him. I was a young geutleman, then, and thought I could marry when ever I liked. They went away to the west and got rich, he’s a member of Congress, and she has grown fat, and rides about in her carriage, with two or three grown up daughters —pretty’ girls too, I am told, but will never be like tlieir mother. I've a ribon of her’s that she used to wear around her slender waist and I bribed her brother to steal it for me, with the loan of my fowling piece ; and when it rains, and I feel sentimental, I take it out of my writing and look at it awhile. I think I will throw it into the fire — but I don’t though, and there it is yet in the secret drawer of my mother’s picture, with the last lock of my own hair. They make capital wigs by the way; nobody seems to suspect that my curls are not of the natural crop. Lucy used to say my hair was beau tiful, and I’m almost certain she cut off a lock when I was asleep on the sofa. I wonder if she has lost any of her splendid teeth; mine have stood it pretty well, but they are going. Parmly, the dentist, said hers would last a long time and ho ought to know. F must go and get him to make me a couple of new ones. , , What shall I do with myself to-day’ I’ve given up business and made money enough to last me my time. I’ve no one to leave it to when I’m gone. — Where’s the use of going on dollar to dollar, unless one has children to set up ? Nine marriages in the paper to day ! Nine husbands and nine wives crea ted since yesterday morning. I dare say they’ll all -have young sprouts ; say four apiece on an aver age ; that’s thirty-six little mouths to be stuffed with bread and butter, and seventy-two little feet to buy shoes for, and two hundred and eighty little fingers to wash and keep clean ! No fool of a job that for nine paps and nine mammas ! I was also fond of children. There is anew married couple moved in the house over the way, on purpose to plague I do believe ; they seem to be very fond of cacli other, and very happy. Then a gig comes to the door every’ after noon, and he hands his wife so carefully, and she smiles at him so brightly as they drive off, but I'm almost tempted to wish they might break their necks before they get back. That’s a nice looking girl that has come to stay with them during the honey moon ; she’s the bride’s sister or something I dare say: the prettiest foot and the most rouguisli eyes I’ve ever seen ; except Lucy Smith,s I wonder if she’s engaged to be married ; 1 don’t see any suspicious young man come to the door, and—But what the deuce is it to me whether she is or not ? I’m an old bachelor, and must go down the grave without lea ving anybody to cry for me. I should like though to see the girl nearer; its easy enough to get intro duced into the house, and though I’m too old to mar ry, there’s no reason that I know why an old fellow like me shouldn’t do the polite thing to anew comer to the neighborhood. I’ve anew coat coming home that my r artist says will, make me look fifteen venrs younger; rather impertinent by the way. And I’m not so amazingly old aMr all. When I sat breakfast, I felt rather blu ish and thought quite a Methuselah.

From the Yankee Blade. The Nubians. The Rev. Mr. R. of the Methodist church, is dis tinguished both for his talents and eccentricities.— The following story is literally true, and actually oc curred some time since, not a thousand miles from the city of Gotham. It so happened, that during one dark and dismal night, while a terrible thunderstorm was raging, that he was awakened from his peaceful slumbers by a loud rap at the window of his sleeping apartment, lie inquired the cause of so unseasonable an intrusion by the usual ‘who's there V uttered in tones not al together dissimilar to those of a hungry hyena in a travelling menagerie, when ‘stirred up,’ by the boys with a long pole, during ‘feeding hours.’ From the darkness there came a meek reply.— Scipio loquitur: ‘lt’s me Massa, dat is my belubbed Dinah and Scipio himself, and we wants Massa to tie us up into a corn-Nubian-not, dis night, we does !’ It seems that were ‘fugitives’ from tho ‘State of Sin gle Blessedness,’ and voluntarily yielded themselves up to be tried in tho ‘Court of Cnpid.’ Unpropitious night! one would think to light any kind of a torch, and most especially one so easily extinguished as that of Hymen. But love, wheth ther black or white, ‘laughs at impossibilities.’ ‘lhe rain descended and the floods came, and beat uponj those two darkies’ heads, but could not extin guish tho volcanic fires, which love had kindled in their hearts. The scene, when it could be seen was a combination of the ludicrous and sublime, calcu lated to inspire even an ordinary man, but the Rev. Mr. R. was no ordinary man, so he arose and stood before the windows ‘sans cullottes,’ and just as a bril liant flash of light lit up in a blaze, earth, air, and sky, lie pronouuced over the ‘Nubians,’ the following impromptu ceremony. Out of this window, in stormy weather, I join this nigger and wench together ; Let none but him who’d smell of thunder, E’er part this nigger and wench asunder 1 The parson ‘turned in,’ and the ‘Nubians’ retired. has been importuned to join the Sons of Temperance, and was about JAlierT an expose of the imtiatory ceremony was published,N in which the following verse is sung by the brethren, andj.’hilander has returned to his cups. We doubt very much if any such thing is sung by the Sons, but Philander believes that it is horribly true. Here is the verse: “Ilark, hark, hark ! Hark to the Patriarch’s oath, Your life he’ll surely take, And should your wife be leagued with you, Wo swear to kill you both, All for the Order’s sake !” True Grit. —A fun loving contemporary tells tho following of a spunky chap in the land of blue laws and wooden nutmegs, who felt that he was ‘just nat urally bound” to shine in some shape, by hook or crook : A young man of not very prepossessing moral character, lately proposed uniting with a church in Conne’eticut, but neither his present nor prospective ph)ty gave moral power to his application. At length, after a long delay, the candidate was kindly informed thp,t for the present the church declined the proposal with the hope however that his future course might ere long warrant his reception. The hopeful rejected was at first astounded, but as a hap py thought struck him he turned on his heel and exclaimed with asignificant snap of the finger, ‘ Wal if you won't let me fine your Church , 1 know what I can do—l can ’list into the Troop,-by and urn /’ in #g® mll <& sisuiij The Devil. —There is no name more abhorred, and there is no individual more useful in his way. From the great arch devil down to the poor printer’s devil, he has his uses and abuses. The delicate young lady of fashion would be shock ed to hear the name slipped from the lips even of her lover, yet this same young saint will play the devil with the dress-maker or the milliner, should they make the slightest error in her wearing appar el The preacher from the pulpit denounces the dev il and all his imps, and yet this man of sanctity will look very like the devil if his congregation do not pay up and feast him on the good things of this life. The church would be profaned by the appearance of the devil, yet how many devilish tricks are play ed under the veil of sanctimony in the church.— And tvhcrc would that church be if it teas not for the Devil ? The fact is, the devil is as necessary to the well being of the world, as salt is to the salvation of pork. Without the fear of Satan before our eyes, we would all literally “go to the devil.” Here a little smutty faced imp at our elbow whis pers ‘More copy, sir V Oh the devil!

THIS PAPER is the organ of the Universalist De nomination in the Southern and South-Western States, and will be as heretofore, devoted to the religion of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

The unprecedented success which has thus far atten ded the ‘Herald,’ has induced the Editor to publish it every week, in an improved form, commencing in Janu ary next, at greatly reduced rates. As additional expense will necessarily be incurred, it is to be hoped that the friends of liberal principles, will at once exert their utmost influence in procuring new subscribers, and thus aid in sending the ‘Herald’ into many desolate regions of our Zion, where th.e voice of the preacher is but seldom heard. The Editor is pleased to stare that Revs. C. F. R. Shehane, S. J. McMorrris, Almon Gage.D. C. Clayton, and others are regular contributors to the work, from whose instructive pens, the columns of the ‘Herald’ will be weekly enriched. The reputation of there brethren is too well known to require any eulogiurn from our pen. Suffice it to say, that with their concentrated action, the Editor will labor dilligently to make his paper an acceptable exponent of the great doctrine of’lhe restitution of all things.* [Acts, 3., 21.] Terms :—lf paid in advance - $2 00 per an. “ 6 mo’s - - 250 “ “ during the year 300 “ LIBERAL INDUCEMENTS TO CLUBS. 3 conies for ... - - $5 74... 10 10 “ r ls O’ Money can bo sent by mail at the risk of tho Edi tor, to whom all communications should be addressed.

P.cn cases can be pointed out in almost every county in Gto*via, where some poor, decrepid, helpless being, after testing every h* al means without avail have sent olf, as a dernier resort, a descr'f on of their diseases to a distance, in many instances hundreds of Hides, 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 naught the sneers of antagonistic interests, and adding new linger posts at every post office and cross roads, pointing the way the city of refuge. Without subjecting himself to the charge of presumption, he would yet boldly say, that he (irmly believes that nine-tenths of the so called incurable cases in Georgia, are yet within the reach of medicine and can be cured bv pursuing a proper course of medication, with the ex ercisoof necessary care ami perseverance, on the part of the patient, which in all cases of a lingering character, are of the last importance. The great facilities forthis kind of treatment presented in the cheap postage system, has been taken advantage of by thousands who ha;>- pily can indirectly attribute their present good health to that noble spe ciisien of liberal government; and there are thousands more who my reap the same advantages, by simply pursuing a similar course. Let Ihe afflicted if he cannot write himself, gi t liis neighbor to do it fur ■ him, give a history of his case, age, habits, and symptoms, the same as if talking to a physician, if able and it is convenient, enclose the fee; if not convenient just then, a due bi'.i for the amount will answer, (this obviates the inconvenience of miking accounts at great distances,) and if not able, pre-pay and mail the letter to his address, wljpn medicines suitable to the case w ill he compounded and sent wifci full directions. - ■■ ,y “” ?v—*br t ivatmef- V- oii.fr-*r —r—iHßiV, a miH* suinn m deviate the fear of risk to any one, and yet suffi cient to preserve him from loss in/his extensive administrations. This done, call at the post officio in a reasonable time, and receive your medicines with as much precision as you would a letter; pre pare and use them as directed, ans! persevere; report progri ■* month ly, or oftener, as may be necessary, and closely watch the progress of tlie cure. Having boon long and extensively engaged in tho treatment of dis eases peculiar to females. he would say that they may avail them, selves of his knowledge, with the utmost confidence, in his prudence and integrity,so that in writing out their symptoms, they may express themselves with the necessary freedom. In some of the diseases of the renal and procreative system, the medicines being more costly, the charge will be increased.

THOM SON, M. D. 1850.,ey 12—ly BROWN'S EftENTRimOGRESSbE POWER PRESS. advantages of this new POWER PREBB, and its superiority JL over all others, are as follows: The power applied is multiplied 440 times, by the Lever ami Fccen tric pully, that is, one hundred jiounds power applied to the I-eri r will exert a force 24,000 pounds on the Cotton. The whole top of the hale box is open to receive the Cotton, and it may he put as near ! the Gin House as is desired. His three times ps powerful as a screw of 18 inches diameter, that has a nine inch piteh of thread with the same length of Lever, and of course the horse has to walk hut one- ! third as far, for the reason that a lever is required but one-third as long i to do the same work. And further, the Tress follower descends with much greater rapidity at the commencement of the -operation, when ‘ hut little power is required, which shortens the distance travelled by ! the horse, in proportion to the increased velocity of the follower at the start. This Press can he made very compact, and equally powerful, by j using the wheel and axle, and can be so modified as to answer any . purpose where a Press is necessary for manufacturing or domestic j purposes. For Cotton it requires one-fourth less work to build, and threc-fourthr less workto raise, than tin* screws, and if a cast iron Ec- • centric wheel is used, it will not be much over half the work to buijd i ns a screw. For Pressing Cotton, Tobacco, Hemp, Hay,&c. it cannot be excelled. There is one-third less timber in this Press than in the | crew, and it is certainly the cheapest ever built. The whole cost oftlie Irons will not exceed $45, which may lie bad ofU. n. Levy, of Macon, who is the only person authorized to furnish hem. This sum iscxdusivc of freight and the cost of right to use the Press. If the Eccentric wheel is made of iron, the cost will lx? 10 or sls more for the Iron work, but it will materially lessen the cost of labor on the wood work of the wheel, and will he the cheap est in the end. Any good Mechanic can construct tiie Press from the drawings and specifications which will accompany each right. 1 shall sell a single right at $lO, which sum can tie sent by mail at my risk, provided the fact of sending ia certified to by the Postmaster ofthe place where the letter is mailed. Each right will be accompa niedhy an engrnving and a full description, so that any mechanic will he able to build the Press. Any communications, post-paid, will ha punctually attended to. A. D.
