Mien Enina Hurdlnsc.— Thi
gifted aad accomplished Lady is expected in
this city, on or before Sunday next, and in
season to Lecture on that day, atone of the
public Halls. To give our readers an idea
•f the treat In store for our people, we *ub
mit the following editorial notice of Miss
Hardinge's labors in New Orleans, from the
column* of the N. O. Bulletin, of last week :
“A Lady Orator. —Aaioog the novelties
f New Orleans just now iaa lady orator.
Miss Emma Hardinge is regarded by her
friends ae a predigy of eloquence and fascin
ating power. She is attracting large audi
encea, and we can testify—for we have
heard her—that many of her life pictures are
drawn with much warmth, bcautr and fltlel
ity. She has certainly great command of
language, and speaks with ease, grace and
elegance. She speaks this evening at Odd
Fellows’ Hall on such subjects na tbe audi
ence may select. This will be a novelty in
this city which cannot fail to attract a host
of witnesses. Here is a fine opportunity for
scientific men to test the claims ofthose who
hel ieve in communion with the departed.”
Miss H. will only remain in Macon, over
the 16th, (the Sd Sunday,) and hence those
desirous of hearing this celebrated Trance
Lecturer, on the great truths of Science,
Philoeophy and Theology, especially on the
absorbing subject of Spiritual ceminunion be
tween the present life and the future, should
not foil to attend upon her heavenly minis
trations.
Hold on a little!-—Negotiations
are on foot, which will probably take a week
or two to bring to a consummation, for tbe
establishment of the Citizen, as a Daily Pa
per, in room of the present Semi- Weekly. —
Sufficient capital will be invested and the
most able editorial assistance will be secur
ed to make it a first class Xevsjxrper, in ev
ery respect. We give this notice in advance,
in order that our friends who desire a Daily
paper in Macon, which will be placed, at
onee, on a permanent basis, will not commit
themselves to other enterprises of doubtful
proepec ts of success, till the opportunity is
afforded us, of demonstrating the fact, of
which we now give an “ inkling.”
State Treasurer.—John B. Trippe,
Esq., State Treasurer, has resigned his office
oa account of ill health, and the Governor has
appointed Capt. John Jones, of Baldwin, to
supply his place.
know .—Snow fell in Thomas county,
Ga., last week, to the depth of two inches!
The Clerk of tbe weather must have been on
a bander!
Acquitted.—Dr. Robert U. Eaton,
was tried on the 16th ult-, before Judge
Hansell, at the Brooks Superior Court, for
killing John Groover of that county last
spring, by the mal-administration of medi
cine, and acquitted. The evidence showed
that the prescription administered by Dr.
Eaton was judicious.
James T. Niabet, Esq., af
ter three years’ all- administration of the
Editorial Department of the Augusta “Con
stitutionalist,” has retired from that posi
tion, for the purpose of resuming the prac
tice f the Law, in this city. We welcome
him back to the home of his kindred, and
wish him all success in his honorable pro
fusion. Mr. Henry Cleveland takes charge
•f the “Constitutionalist.”

Xelancliolv Accident.
On Friday last, while two boys by the
aaine es Jaugstotter, were hunting, a short
distance below the city, one of them, the
son of Mr. John Jaugstotter was killed by
tho accidental discharge of his gun. It ap
ears that while loading, his ramrod was
caught in the barrel, and finding it very
difficult to get out, the breech of the gun
waa held by the younger boy. In attempt
's to draw it out, the gun was discharged,
passing it entirely through the body of the
other and killing him instantly. Ilis nge
was about 13 years. Another warning to 1
boys to be more cautious with fire-arms.—
Beveral such accidents have occurred in this

*oSpeaker Yet. -Up totheevening
of Wednesday last, there was no election
of Speaker, and no probability of it, as
far as we are able to judge. In tbe mean
while, tbe atfairs of the nation, especially
mail service, are at a stand still, to almost, or
threaten to be dead-locked unless the House
should be organized, speedily.
Kailrigid Hovenicest.—The people
Augusta seem to be fully alive to the pro
ject of a Railroad between that city and Ma
con. A call for a public meeting ori Wed nee
lay last, was very numerously signed by the
most substantial citizens. Will not Macon
respond in a liberal spirit? We cannot be
nsensible to the importance ofa more direct
C> nmunlcation between the two cities.
Tlie (iiluicr “Amendment/’
It is apparent to any man at all acquaint
ed with the political history of the Country,
since 1864, that the purpose of tbe Demo
cractic leaders, lias been to agitate the ques
tion of Slavery, in and out of Congress. If
they do not wish agitation on the subject of
Slavery, why do they, in ar,d out of Con
gress, denounce Mr. Gilmer's amendment to
Mr. Clark's resolution? Mr. Clark’s reso
lution very properly denounced the Helper
pamphlet, but it stoped there. It did not go
far enough. It did not discountenance tho
agitation of the question of Slavery in and
out of Congress. It simply said, no man was
tit to be elected Speaker who bad signed or
endorsed tbe infamous Helper doctrines.—
Would Mr. Clark's resolution alone suppress
the agitation of the Slavery question, in and
out of Congress ? We think not.
Mr. Gilmer’s “Amendment” is, however
a repudiation of Helper’s infamous doctrine,
and a discountenance of the agitation of the
question of Slavery in ev-ry form, in and
>ut of Congress. That is tlie reason why
the Democratic leaders in Congress would
not vote for Mr. Gilmer's preamble and res
olution. That is the reason the Democratic
press bus denounced Mr. Gilmer’s “amend
ment.” They know if Mr. Gilmer’s resolu
tion is adopted, that agitation on the ques
tion of Slavery must, and would cease, in
and out of Congress, for tho language of that
preamble and resolution reads thus—“ That
they will not support for office of President
or Vice-President, or of Senator, or ot’ Rep
resenative in Congress, or as member ofa
State Legislature, any man of whatever par
ty, who is not known to be opposed to tbe
disturbance of the Settlement of 1850 and
1851 and to the renewal, in any form of agi
tation upon the subject ofSlavery.”
The resolution of Mr. Gilmer, was the re
solution adopted by both tbe National
Democratic and Whig Conventions in 1852.
The resolutions of the two great parties of
1852 read thus: “That we will resist all at
tempts at renewing, in Congress or out of
it, the Slavery agitation, under whatever
shape and color, the attempt maybe made;”
and Mr. Gilmer added—“ That no member
should be elected Speaker of this House,
whose political opinions arc not known to
conform to the foregoing sentiments.
Now, if the Democratic leaders are sin
cere, and wish agitation on the question of
Slavery to cease, why did they not vote for
Gilmer’s “amendment” to Clark's resolu
tion ? Had the Democratic members in
Congress voted with the Southern Americans
on Mr. Gilmer’s “amendment,”
have passed it, and thus rebuked the infa
mous Heljier doctrines and forever have put
the agitation of Slavery at rest, but that is
not what, we fear, the Democratic leaders and
press desire. Their policy is to keep tip ag
itation on the subject of Slavery, in and out
of Congress. They tvish and iotend to en
ter into the presidential contest in 1860, on
the agitation of the question of Slavery.—
They want another Kansas bill with all of
its “ unmeaning generalitias, wretched and
cursed uncertainties.”
If the Democratic leaders are opposed to
the agitation of Slavery, why do they de
nounce and vote against a resolution (Mr.
Gilmer's) that if passed would tend to crush
out agitation on Slavery, and put it forever
.at re*t. The answer is plain. Their object
! is to keep tbe North and South highly ex
cited, on the most sensitive subject to both
sections of the Country; then through the
confusion consequent upon excitement on
Slavery, they hope by deception and fraud,
to succeed in holding on to place and pow
er, and thereby secure the triumphant vin
dication of their “time honored principles,”
public immorality and public plunder, in
one word, “the five loaves and two fishes.”
That is the full dimension of their patriot
im, and the exact measurement of their love
for their Country.
Do not say we judge them too harshly.
IV e know but one sure rule by which to
judge men in public or private life, and that
is by their acts, and not by their professions.
Taking that rule as our guide, how else can
we judge them ? But recently they de
nounced and voted against a resolution that
come np to their profession, and expressed a
wish to see tbe agitation of Slavery cease, in
and out of Congress. If they tncuu and wish
what they say, why, we rej>eat, did they not
vote for Mr. Gilmer's preamble and resolu
tion ?

More about the Driggs Pianos’
IN the rush for Driggs’ Patent Piano, we have 900-
. eeeiled in getting more of entirely new pattern. —
The increasing demand for these Pianos would sug
gest to those who wish to purehase to he on tlie alert
and rail soon at J. A. k S. S. VIRGIN’S where they
eon lie supplied in that or of some other good maker.
Ci rtifieate from the first Musical Authorities of America-
The undersigned, having thoroughly examined
and tested the Piono Forte invented and patented by
Mr. Spencer Driggs. are of unanimous opinion, that
the method of constructing Piano-fortes invented by
Mr. Driggs. by which the thick plank bottom and
Interior Hocking of wood are dispensed with, and
a greater strength and compactness gained by means
of an entire iron frame, independent of the case, is
the true philosophical priiviple for constructing
Piano-fortes. That the thin case, the upper and lower
sounding-boards, inclosed in their respective frames
embracing the whole length and breadth of the in
strument. with the connecting sounding-fuist. togeth
er. form the most perfect and powerful vibrating
medium for tlie production of sound ever used in
connection with the Piano forte. That the tone re
sulting from these several improvements, as exhibi
ted in the instrument under examination., in point
of richness, depth and brilliancy, equals that of the
best grand Piano-fortes, and exceeds them in pure mu
sical intonation and actual tour power ; thus approxi
mating closer to uhat we consider perfection in the in
struhient. than has yet been achieved by any othei sys
tem of manufacture.
In recording this, our matured opiniou. whereby
we recognize a great and important principle, which
is destined to develop the full power • he Piano
forte. we have no other motive than thu. of fullilling
a duty, which, as artists, we consider we owe to our
art.

From the Savannah New#.
The South und the North.
The last number of Harper's Weekly, a
paper which circulate* largely at the South,
in a leading editorial, complains that tbo (
Washington Constitution has sought to make |
political capital, “in aid of the Southern
friend* of the administration,” by publish
ing advance returns of the foreign commerce )
of the United States for 1808-’o9. It nlleg- j j
es that the Constitution newspaper, “having |
discovered that the bulk of the exports of do- !
mestic produce were of Southern growth j
such as cotton, rice, naval stores, tobacco, j
has drawn “a fallacious parallel be- (
tween the two sections, implying that tlio
Southern States are the support of the Nor
thern. To do this, it willfully omitted from
its comparison, the export of specie, amount- 1
ing to 557,502,305 —the produce of a free
State; and it concealed the fact that, in con- (
sequence of the poor harvest of breadstuffs
in the United States in 1858, and vhe boun
tifill harvests of foreign countries t- |H
little or no export of wheat or
rope during the fiscal year under rev' 0
| But, continues this Northern **’ I
Southern circulation, “the f °l

unconsciousness of the fact, that
I standing the large growth of

f After declaring that the quarrel bet* I
i • the North and South is “the old dUp
j j tween the belly and the members overaj, ,* I
r i the editor oominues:
The growth and exfKwt of cotton & rf > I

and grass would grow in the street* ofN,*
York and other sca-p>rt.
The editor admits, in the succeeding pa,-,
j agraph, that the North cannot hope to bi
able to male heavy shipments of wheat—
“lt is very doubtful whether, even with the
best of harvests, the United States gru*
much more wheat than they require for their
, own consumption. It is certain that evts
a moderate export demand—leading to ship
mi nts of 20.000,000 or 25,000,000 luadich „
wheat, in the twelve month, to Great Britain
—causes an advance in the price here whid
imposes a heavy tax on consumer*. Evrr,

Without shipments of wheat the North cm.
not hope that her exports of breadstuffs will
” amount to any considerable sum, and tin
1 editor of “llurj>er' Weekly” is evidentlym
convinced, for he concludes with the folio*.
- ing paragraph :
We look, in the future—presuming tint
no political catastrophe occurs—to incnmil
} shipments of cotton and sjiccie, and rather
, diminished shi|rinents of wheat. Our mi*
cellaneous exports, including manufacture,,
are sure to increase; but as population nd
• prosperity spreads, it is doubtful whether
we shall have any flour to spare. The sta
ple exports which an enlightened political
economy will teach 11s to cultivate art* gold,
silver and cotton. The more of these we
send abroad, the more active our trade will
be, and the richer the country will grow;
breadstuffs we need at home. No country
is really independent which does not ((row
food enough to supply its people cheaply;
we cannot do this and feed Europe as well.
We are perfectly willing to accept the
editor’s arguments and admission*. Accor
’ ding to his own showing, the Southern cot
ton crop is tlie great staple of export, ob
which the whole country has to depend.—
“The staple exports,” he says, “which an
| enlightened political economy will teach ui
to cultivate are gold, silver and cotton."—
Now, take hi* own showing: the exports of
cotton for present fiscal year, will probably
exceed $180,000,(NX). Put down the eiporti
of specie, for the present, at the same figure
as the past year—there is no reason to sup.
pose that it will exceed it—and wc have $57,-
502,305. Os this amount $18,000,000 wer#
returned ns difference in our favor between
exports and imports, leaving a balance of
specie of $30,502,305, so that of those staple
exports on which it is claimed the country
must depend, the North furnishes $39,a02,-
305, against $180,000,000 contributed hr the
South.
But, contends this political economist,
“notwithstanding the large growth of pro
duce in the South, the Southern demand for
Northern commodities still keep* the bal
ance even between North and South.” But
—and we beg our readers to mark the ad
-1 mission—“if at any moment the South ceas-
I ed to take from the North goods equivalent
i in value to its export of produce, Southern
j exchange on the North would fall, and pe
cie would flow southward, until every
I Northern Bank were broken.” Now, whst
is the substance of this editor’s argument!
i The South furnishes the exports of the coun
try, but she is compelled to expend all tha.
she receives from her exports to pay k
what she buys at the North. These So
ern exports are needed to enable the Nortl
ern importer to carry on his businesa. II
these exports were to cease, imports would
, decline in proportion, and “grass would
grow in the streets of New Y'ork.” Sup
pose, then, the South should establish a *y
tern of non-intercourse—should determine
to do her own importing—to allow her owa
importing —to allow her own people to make
these profits, and help build up her own sea
ports, what would there be to prevent graw
from growing in the street* of New York!
| Suppose, instead of looking to New York
for her imports, to Pennsylvania for her iron,
to Massachusetts for her manufactured cot
ton goods and her boots and shoes, she should
determine to import them from England,
France and Germany, what is to hinder her
from doing it, and v/liat but the consequen
! ces which the editor has himself foreshadow
ed would result to the Northern States!
