Let their vote from Maine to California

an idle boast or accomplished a foul and
iniquitous purpose. Let the influence

ing the arbitrator of this country’s poli
cy and destiny.
Jihudder, you pliant dotigh-faoed dem

of Atlas himself, and that will surely
on your comb hied backs, and happ'ily
will it Ik- as the years roll on if it fails
to break up the fabric that contains all
tha f is dear to American freemen.
“ Coming events cast their shadows
before.” Already has the signal lawn
given and it has flashed from the Irish
democratic press North, South, Eat
ami West that they must have a more
eoiitroiiug influence in the a (Vail'S of Gov

this gentleman, from the land where

dictation from yuur Milesianialiy ? This
huge “ lump that you have been rol

to be true. This ia why all other for

of the spoils; this is why the Democrat

Russia against Constitutional Guvnn
meats; why it is forced to express Irish
sentiments eoncefpirg the unutterable
Sepoy atrocities, and why it is bound to
stead Ly a religion that has berm the
b&na and degradation of our race. This
U why a refugee from Van Deeman’s
land can ensconce himself under the much

brutal assault uj*on the life of a defence
less oditor of a Souihern Journal, and
why the IrMi Atlanta Tress dares to

Instinct in Ilorscx.
Rtwakablr lustnnre of Henor> ill (he Hoisf.
About a fortnight ago, says the Bristol
(England) Times, a Mr. King, carrying
ou the business of a baker at Sibland,
near Thornbury, went, in the morning of
the day, to a field in which his horse had
been grazing for the purpose ot getting
him home, and as he had been in the habit
■ of doing, opened the gate and allowed
the animal to proceed home by itself, but
on his return shortly after he found to
his dismay that it had not arrived. Mr.
King immediately set about making in
quiries, and found it had passed Grave
send, which is near to Sibland, and ap
peared to be proceeding towards Itchin
ton. Mr. King being necessitated to at
tend to his business, dispatched a man to
trace and if possible overtake the horse.
The man succeeded in tracing it for some
distance, and was informed it was pre
ceding at a gallop. Mr. King, for up
wards of a week, used every means, by
advertising in the Hue and Cry and oth
erwise, to recover his missing horse, but
without avail. A few days since he re
ceived a letter from a gentleman residing
at St. George, near Bristol, giving him
the welcome news that the animal was
safe. This gentleman owned the horse
for some time, and parted with it four
years since. From inquiries made, it ap
pears that the horse proceeded by the
most direct road across the country, and
with its best speed arrived nt his old
quarters, which it had not visited for four
years, in the afternoon of the day it stray
ed from Mr. King.
Instances of like sagacity in the horse
arc not uncommon. A friend of ours
hired a horse in Jacksonville, (Illinois,)
to go to the southern part of the country,
a neighborhood where the horse had
never been before. While there he es
caped from the stable, leaped the fence
and disappeared. It was supposed he
had returned to Jacksonville, where he
had been stabled and used for three years.
Ou inquiry no trace was found of him in
that direction. A rumor was brought
by a traveller who knew the horse that
had been seen making his way towards
the southern part of the State; he some
times kept die public road leading towards
Vandal ia, and sometimes took to the
trackless prairie, but always bent South
ward. At one place he was headed oiF
in a lane a mile long, between two farms.
He turned short, galloped north to the
end of the farm, shot down to the prairie
hugging the fence all the way, and then
held on his way South again. lie was
bound for home, the place of his colthood,
where he had not been for several years,
and guided by his instinct he traversed
the State, going a route unknown to him,
but unerringly reached his old range.—
He was recovered there some time after
his escape, when it was ascertained that
he had taken almost a bee-line from his
strange quarters in Morgan county to the ,
home where was foaled in the Southern
part of the State.
A gentleman from Tennessee related |
to us a story of a horse of his owu, illus
trative of this remarkable instinct in this
noble animal. He purchased a horse in
a portion of the State separated from his
own region by mountains and rivers, and
took him home by a route extending near
ly a hundred aud fifty miles. He placed
him in a pasture lot for the night, but
in the morning the horse was gone. In
a sow days it was ascertained that he had
returned that very night to his old home,
reaching there by daylight. He had ta
ken. ft straight course across the country,
swimming rivers and crossing the moun
tain. On his arrival he showed signs of
great fatigue, having traveled a distance
ofsixty or seventy miles during the night,
following unerringly the point <>f the com
pass to which he desired to go. llis
memory would of course have served
him in retracing the route by which he
had come. But. guided by the same in
stinct which conducts the bee, after long
wandering and ladi n with his sweet bur
den. in a line mathematically straight
from the last flower he ravishes to his
cell, this horse, in the darkness of the
night, over unknown paftis, returned by
the shortest course to his home.

( tide(ground Uailroad.
Among the nefarious schemes ol those
who have for years been plotting treason
against our common country, one of the
most disreputable is that of stealing lie
groes, or what amounts to nearly the
same thing, enticing them to run away
from their masters by deception and false
hood.
A few years ago. we had occasion to
visit Canada West during the winter. —
One morning, in passing up the principal
street in Toronto, we saw a negro lad of
sixteen or seventeen years of age, stand
ing bareheaded, barefoot —in short, with
out any other clothing than a shirt and
pantaloons. It was cold enough to freeze
a Laplander. It had been thawing a few
hours previous, but was then freezing
the “ slush” into the consistency of cast
iron. There this miserable specimen of
humanity stood, with bare head, for sev
eral hours, beneath the peltings of snow
and hail, almost at the very door of the
office of the Globe, a malignant Aboli
tion journal —there he stood, a freeman,
on British soil, and the British philan
thropists took no more notice of him than
if he bad been a dog. The writer pas
sed up and down the opposite side of the
street in attending to business, a number
of times during the forenoon, and no one
took the slightest notice of this “ God
made brother” bareheaded in the storm.
Having occasion to cross over near to
the place where he stood shivering like
an aspen leaf, adecrepid old woman stop
ped and asked him why he stayed there ?,
lie answered as well as his chattering
teeth would permit, that his mammy and
himself were runaway slaves —they had
no home, no place to stay, and no one
to provide them a mouthful of food. —
This is specimen of British philanthropy
No. 1. Please read on.
A few days after this occurred, the
writer was called upon at the hotel in
Hamilton, where lie was stopping, by n
negro man who desired to speak to him.
He said —I hear you are from tlie States.
I am a runaway slave, my name is Mor
ton; 1 formerly lived in Georgia, but
have been living for some time in Mich
igan. I came to Canada to avoi 1 the
Fugitive Slave law, but I am treated here
like a brute —I can neither get whole
some food nor employment—and I want
to got back to Detroit. I had rather go
back with the risk of going to Georgia,
than to stay here and starve. Will you
aid me in procuring the means to do
so? The reply was in the affirmative, a
donation was handed him, a subscription
paper drawn up, stating the object for
which the money was wanted, and that
is the last we saw of Mr. Morton. This
is an evidence of British philanthropy
No. 11. For this, it is, that misguid
ed philanthropists entice the negroes a
\vay from their comfortable homes, where
every want is provided for! They prom
ise them freedom—but it is freedom to
freeze, steal, or starve. —Phihulcfphia

The Half Housekeeper.
She was only a half housekeeper. Go
where you would about her home, there
was neither taste nor neatness. She
would begin with great avidity, but lose
all her zeal before she got half through.
Os her husband’s half-a-dozen new shirts
all were partially finished—one wanted
sleeves, another a collar and waistbands,
another a bosom and gusset, and so on
through the whole list. Several skele
tons of quiits lay unfolded in her draw
ers, and her tables and trunks were load
ed with magnificent promises.
Her bread w\as always unpalatable be
cause she forgot thia or that—and though
i she had been married ten years, in all
that time the table was never rightly laid
for a meal. Either the salt was wanting,
a knife or spoon, or some important in
gredient. This afforded exercise fur the
family, and there was at all times a con-
I tinual running to and fro.
She was a half housekeeper. Her
meats were never cared for after dinner,
and when it was, “la! throw it away,
it ain’t much.” Much or little, it makes
the butcher’s bill enormous, and her hus
band half distracted. There always stood
in her musty smelling pantry, mouldy
milk and mouldy bread. Th re always
lay about her room a dozen garments
worn out by trampling rather than use.
She was forever tripping over brooms,
forever wondering why on earth work
came so very hard to her.
Her children’s clothes came to pieces
the first day, because they were only half
made, and her temper soured quicker
than any thing else. She was continual
ly lamenting that she ever married, and
wondered where some folks got their
house work. “Oh ! dear me !” seemed
to be the whole of her vocabulary', and
it would make one sad to watch her list
less movements, and hear her declare
that no woman worked as hard as she,
which was pretty true, for she had no
method.
She dragged through life, and worried
through death, for which, I fear, like ev

Hob Walker ami Hie Presi
dency.
That Bob Walker is blazingout a road ;
to tho Presidency’ is hardly to be doubt - ;
ed. The following extract from the New j
York Herald's Washington letter of the |
21st, is well worth the attention of the
Southern supporters of Walker. Bead : t
The Kansas policy of Robert J. W al
ker has received the particular attention j
of the New York Herald, and your de
fense of his course in connection with the
Administration has not failed of its good j
effects iu the right quarters. The Her
ald has also hinted on several occasions j
that Walker is an aspirant for the Pres- j
idency, and that the affairs of Kansas are i
the trump cards which he is trying to j
play so a-’ to win the sweepstakes of*
i*no. 1
Prom a recent Conversation with an
intimate friend of \\ alker, 1 have reason
to believe that the Governor has serious
ly affixed his attentions upon the White
and that out of Kansas he expects *
to achieve wonders. 1 understand that
to this end his wishes and his attentions *
are to make Kansas a free State through
the enforcement of the terms of the Kan
sas Nebraska bill, and that with this con-:
summation he expects the reconstruction j
of parties indicated by the Herald, and j
that the new party of national eonserva- i
tives, opposed to both Northern and i
Southern slavery agitators, will fiud in |
Robert J. Walker and his doings in Kan
sas the very man and the very platform
they desire, especially as Mr. Buchanan
will be out of the way, and probably Col. j
Fremont. Should this be so, Governor j
Walker will only have such men as Dou- j
glas, Hunter, Seward, Jeff. Davis, to
contend against, and such as these, it is
thought it will not be very hard to beat.
The Herald indorses editorially the
views of its correspondent as follows :
Before accepting bis responsible office,
Gov. Walker had doubtless discovered
that anything approaching an adhesion to
the terms of the Kansas Nebraska bill
would result in making Kansas a free
State, from the overwhelming numerical
ascendency of the free State settlers in
the territory. In accepting, therefore,
the chart of Mr. Buchanan's inaugural
as his guide, the course of the Governor
was at once defined—the result became
certain—and, from its crowning ad
vantages, superior to all the trials and
embarrassments which might delay its
accomplishment. The admission of Kan
sas as a free State, through the fairly ap
plied organic law of the popular sover
eignty, it was evident, at the outset,
would break up the present relations of
our political parties ; but it was equally
manifest to the sagacious observer of cau
ses and effects, that in necessary recon
struction of parties the ascendancy would
accrue to the conservatives acquiescing
in the free State solution of the Kansas
problem. This, then, is the position of
Walker, lie anticipates, as we antici
pate, the disruption of the Southern De
mocracy from the admission of Kansas
as a free State.

GEORGIA CITIZEN.
MACON, G A.... OCTOBER 16, 1857.
L. F. W. ANDF.EWS, Editor.
Macon Cotton Market.— We have
no change to make in our quotations of last
week. Nothing has been done for several days,
but we learn that large cash orders were receiv
ed here, on yesterday morning, for the purchase
of Cotton, aud we may confidently hope for an
improvement in the price of the staple. *
Huaik Su*tCiiMioi)K, —There was a
large meeting of the Merchants of Savannah,
in that city, on Wednesday evening, at which
resolutions were passed, by an almost unan
imous vote, recommending the Banks to
suspend specie payments lor the present. —
Accordingly all the Banks ofSavannah have
complied with the recommendation. A sim
ilar meeting was held in Augusta, same day,
but we have not heard the result. A private
letter states, however, that all the Banks of
that city, except perhaps one, will undoubt
y resolve on temporary suspension.
The Manufacturers’ Bank of this city sus
pended specie payment on Wednesday morn
ing. This we understand was done by the
advice of many of our heaviest Merchants,
who still continue to take the notes of the
Bank at par value, lor goods or for indebt
edness. As the circulation of this Bank is
but little over 860,000, and as the assets are
amply sufficient to meet all liabilities, bill
holders should not submit to any sacrifice
on the paper of the Institution. Asa further
guarantee of safety we may add that the
principal Stockholders of the Bank have now
on hand and lor s?.le, negro property of value
sufficient to take up the entire circulation,
the proceeds of which will be faithfully ap
plied to the redemption of the outstanding
issues of the Bank, shouK it become neces
sary.
Pub. Hoc.— We are indebted to Horn R.
P. Trippe, for a copy of Volumes 3d and 4th of
the “Reports and Kxplorations and surveys, to
ascertain the most practicable and economical
route for a Rail Road from the Mississippi River
to the Pacific Ocean, made under direction of
the Secretary of War, in 1853-4, according to
Acts of Congress.”
Indefinite* Suspension.
lu consequence of the embarrassed condition”
of the Financial Departments of business, we
have concluded to make the temporary suspen
sion of the Daily Citizen indefinite. At present,
there is no prospect, whatever, of making it a
j/ayiny institution, and we would not be doing
justice to ourself or friends to continue the pub
lieation at such sacrifices as would now be nec
essary to sustain it. We therefore shall not re
’ same the Daily, “tilla more convenient season,”
I which we <ire frank to say, will not probably
I come very soon, if ever. To those who have
j overpaid on the Daily, we shall send the Week*
i ly C’iiizeu, till ordered otherwise.
Fine Jewelry. —Messrs. Day A Mau- |
senet have returned to their old stand, near j
Dr. Stroheeker’s corner, where they have !
fitted up and furnished a beautiful store, j
with very desirable goods in their line.
Messrs. Menard & Burghard have also
opened a perfect little bijou of a Jewelry
Store at the corner of Cherry street and Cot
ton Avenue, and solicit a share of public pat- i
ronage. We wish them success, com men-1
surate with their merits.
Le Hon Toil.—Mr. E. Saulsbury has
removed his Clothing Emporium from 2nd |
street to one of the new stores in Boardman s j
Washington Block, Mulberry street, and has !
fitted up his establishment in Broadway |
style. A more tasteful affair canuot be found j
South of Mason’s & Dixon’s Line.
Ilcud Tile.— Our city is now better sup-1
plied with gentlemen’s head gear than ever be
fore. In addition to Beldeu & Co’s, fine Hat
Establishment on Cherry St, under charge of
our friend Major Vic Menard, we have anew
concern just opened in Washington Block, by
Mr. Stone, which deserves the attention of buy
ers. Mr. S. has a beautiful store and a good
stock, and being a young beginner will aim to
give complete satisfaction. See Advertisement.
Hhal is to be done?—We under
stand that several of our business men ad
vertise to receive the notes of the suspended
Banks of South Carolina at par, in payment j
of indebtedness or i exchange for goods.—
This is an example which we would like to
see followed by every business man in the
city. Only let confidence be restored in the
entire solvency of our Banks,and business will
the sooner resume its ordinary channel.— ,
Let nil small debts, at least, be cancelled i
with the currency afloat, and a step will be !
taken in the light direction towards a speedy
restoration of business operations, not only
by the Banks but by all classes of our mer
chants and traders.

“Closely allied to the Washington family,

ment as when he was talking or wilting
of the Great Chief and the Men and Times
of the Revolution. As lie said ot himself
once, ‘his was the destiny of no common j
man—for he had been fondled on the knee j
of fife Father of his Country, and received j
from him the Kindnessoi a parent Here
paid that care and affection with filial dero- ;
tion and to the day of his death, all the re- j
collections of his life centered around or ra- j
dialed from the time when he was one of i
Washington’s family. He lived to a good |
old age, retaining his mental faculties to the j
last.”

These are eminently Christian graces at all times,
but especially so in times of Financial panic and Bank
suspension, and he who is so selfish as to press down
with Shylock pertinacity upon his creditor and require
the “ pound of flesh,” or the pound of currency, to the
uttermost farthing, at such a period, should be held up
: to public acorn, as a disturber of the public peace, and
as one disposed to Increase rather than allay the pres
* snt excitement in monetary affair-. Let all then, take
things as easily as possible, and forbear to pres* un
i necessarily upon their less fortunate neighbors, for the
payment of existing indebtedness, until, at least, we
j know the worst that is In store for u*. In the mean
i while, all extravagant expenditure should be religious
j ly avoided and the utmost economy in every depart
| ment of domestic and social life shou’d be observed.—
j This is the dictate of a sound discretion if it does not
become the command of a stern necessity.

Worms! Worms! Worms!
tw~\ great many learned treatises have been writ
j ten, explaining the origin of, and classifying the worms
generate !in the human system. Scarcely any topic of
[ medical science has elicited more acute observation and
profound research; and yet physicians art very much
divided in opinion on the subject. It must be admitted
however, that after alt, a mode of expelling them and
‘ purifying the body from their presence is of more value
than the wisest disquisitions as to thtir origin.
Such an expelling agent has at last been found. Dr.
M’Lane’s Vermifuge proves to be the much sought after
specific, its efficacy being univ- rsallly acknowledged
! by the entire medical faculty. As further proof, read
the following from a lady, one of our own citlrens :
Saw York, Oct. 15.1552.
This is to certify that I was troubled with worms for
more than a year. I was advised to use M'Lant't Cel
ebrated Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros, of
Pittsburgh. I took one bottle, which brought away
about fifty worms ; I commenced improving at once,
