The Quaker and the Pugilist. A genuine bully called upon a Friend avowedly to thrash him. * “ Friend,” said the Quaker, knocking down the visitor’s fists “before thou pro ceeds t to chastise me, wilt thou not take some dinner 1” The bully was a glutton, and at once consented, washing down the solids with libations of strong ale. He rose up a gain to fulfil his original errand. “ Friend,” said the Quaker, wilt thou sot first take some punch ! and he sup plied abundance of punch. The bully, now staggering attempted to thrash his entertainer. But, quoth the Quaker, friend will thou not take a pipe ! This hospitable offer was accepted, and the bully utterly weak, staggered s cross the room to chastise the Quaker. The latter opening the window and pull ing the bully towards it/ thus addressed him. “ Friend thou earnest hither not to be pacified; I gave thee a meat offering but that did not assauge thy rage; 1- gave thee a drink offering, still thou wert beside thyself, I gave thee a burnt offer ing, liti.iier did that suffice; and now will I try thee with a heave offering 1 And with that he tossed him out of the window. That sufficed him. — Ecouoiny. We have but a faint notion of econo my in this country, and there are a few persons who seem able to exercise its Bpirit in their mode of liviug. Asa general thing, young people, clerks, and the like calculate to live fully up to the amount of their income, if indeed they do not outrun its limits and become involv ed in debt. So with married men of humble means, they calculate to spend about as much as they get and often find themselves involved in debts they can not liquidate, Now there is a simple rule which, if adopted, would make peo ple independent. In the first place, let a man’s income be ever so small, he should calculate to save a little, and lay it by, if only five or ten dollars a year. This will be sure to keep him from running in debt, and as soon as be finds that he has a sum of money saved, there is a natural incen tive to add to that amount, and thus unwittingly, as it were, he begins to ac cumulate. This operation once com menced, he will be surprised to see how fast his means improve ; and then the slow but sure increase of principal by the accumulation of interest is a matter of clear gain. In this relation our own style of saving banks, and new five cent saving banks, are accomplishing a work of great good, being practical sugges tion to the people that cannot fail of their influence. Never purchase any article of dress or luxury, until yon can pay cash for it ; this is a most important rule to observe, and the credit system, in fact, has done quite as much to ruin debtors as credi. tors. A vast number of little expenses (but large in the aggregate) would be saved if one always paid the money for the same at the time of purchase, in place of having it charged. Pay as you go, is a golden rule and it is true economy. Many a poor man could build a house over his head, and own it, with the price of the cigars and tobacco he has used, to say nothing of the worse than useless drinks” of beer and bad spirits, in which from time to time, he has allowed himself to indulge. Avoid any habit, however simple it may be at the outset which involves unnecessray expense ; one leads to another, and altogether will empty your purse and sap the marrow of your physical strength. It is not so much what a man’s income may be, as it is what he spends, that graduates his means. Strive then, to adopt the true principles of economy, and have the se cret of independence.

On receiving the pictures of the Graduating Club of 1860, of the Reform Medical Col lege of Georgia, delivered on Commence ment Day, at Concert Hall, Macon, Ga., March Ist 1860. Bt Pao. I. N. Loomis. Ladies snd Gentlemen, Beloved Graduates : The feeling prompting us to leave with a friend at parting some memento by which, the recollection of us may be quickened in our absence, springs from an element, the purest and most beautiful of our Dflture. Such mementoes are the silent, yet eloquent witnesses of kindness and affection. They are the golden links of memory, star-gem med and flower-wreathed, binding us to what we love. From the rose-tint Eve is said to have brought on her check from Paradise, and which yet in the blushes of her fair daugh ters, carries us eTer back to the primal beauty of Eden, to the sunny curl and gold en locket those parting lovers exchanged last night, sealing the compact with a kiss, such tokens have ever filled the largest page in the heart histories of our race. Thus, too, we commemorate the heroic deeds of men, and recall great events in the history of the past. Nor do we prize such offerings by their market value. They arc above all price. A leaf or a flower, a ringlet or a ring, a picture, or the slightest waif on the sea of meniviy. *• Striking the electric chain wherewith we are darkly bound,” oft awakes the slum bering echoes of life, filling all our being with soul-melody more ravishing than the sun-breathed strains of Memnon, or “the music of the spheres. ” Alone in a foreign clime, amid the frown ing battlements of tyranny, and the mur derous appointments of oppression, where we sigh wearily for the sights and sounds of freedom, at a glimpse of the “stars and stripes,” though torn and soiled, and weath bcaten, floating at the masthead of the hum blest craft from our own shores, or a snatch of “ Home, Sweet Home,” though heard from the lips of a ragged little urchin, or ground from ascreeching hand-organ in the street, the soul, like the lark at sunrise, soars and sings towards Heaven. The dark walls, the insignia of oppression, the loneli ness that made us weep, are all forgotten. Memory waves her magic wand, and lo ! tha scene is changed. Wo are at our native home, ami 1 the scenes of other days. The low sad music of the far-off sea lulls us to rosy dreams of honied bliss. The brook, as it goes laughing by, sings the boyhood songs of hope and happiness. The tall grass and the golden grain wave us a smiling welcome. The flowers we tended with our sister breathe a sweeter perfume in that hal lowed hour, and we husk and bathe in floods of sunny glory, brighter and purer than ever gleam upon the cold, stern, real of mortal life. Os all the mementoes friendship or affec tion may offer to worth, to genius, or to hu man greatness, rone are more appropriate or commemorative than pictures. In the distant future, each of thee shall be ** But the record fiklr. That nxnory keep*, of all thy kinitra there Mill out .iTr May a (tom thut haa efTW-ed A thousand other theme* tea* deeply traced and the value and sacredness of that record will be commensurate with the elevation each may attain in his profession, and the honor he may reflect upon the cause it com memorates. How different is the feeling with which we gaze upon different pictures, though equal in interest as works of art. Indeed the one that moves us most may be the least In this respect. I remember, as If but yesterday, my emotions, when, after days spent in the art galleries of Europe, revelling amid the sublimest creations of genius I met in a small arcade at Versailles, with the portrait of Washington. The glo* ry of Michael Angelo and Leonardo da Vinci, of Correggio and Vernet were for gotten, and my spirit bowed reverently be fore the glory-presence of the father of my country. I thought that gazing there, Vic tor Hugo and Ledru Kcllin, Caviguac and Lamartine, and many another patriot heart may have caught those inspirations of liberty which scattered, and will yet scatter kings from their thrones, and their thrones to the winds of heaven. Would that some of you, for there can be bat one Washington in anything, might become to Medicine and to Science, what Washington is to freedom and the rights of man. Then would that little picture of yours be more prized than the master-piece of Leonardo da Vinci, and from that face, future reformers might catch still higher in spirations in the Healing Art divine. Such is the power of association, linking us ever with all that is best and holiest this side Heaven, and sometimes waking within ns low mysterious tones, like angel-melody, breathing of immortality. One bright Sabbath morning I stood be neath the lofty dome of the Hotel det Inva tides, beside the tomb of Napoleon. The Sarcophagus, curiously carved from solid j porphyry, rests in the centre of a vast cir cle so laid in elaborate mosaic as to repre sent sun-rays darting from the centre to the circumference, the whole surrounded by a massive wreath of bay leaves carved from pum Parian marble. Above this is an apartment, through the floor of which is a circular opening, corresponding with the circle belo-r, the whole supported by huge columns, each with a gigantic statue at tached, both column and statue cut from a single shaft of marble. The circular open ing is surrounded by a massive balustrade, carved in solid marble of snowy whiteness. The floor is rich mosaic. On this I stood, lor ring down upon the urn that holds the a-iiesol Napoleon. In the immense tablets and niches of the Rotunda, arc groups of statuary and pictures from the first masters of the Art; one series rising over another until they readi the dome above. Softly blending tints of rosy and blue and purple light from the stained windows, cant an in describable beauty over the scene. The heavy marble carvings seem like delicate smoke, wreaths intertwined with moon* beams and pearl-lustre, by fairy Angers, and the statues and pictures like ethcrial fairy forms. The scene is one of weird enchant ment and heavenly beauty. Adjoining, is a large chapel, from whose, vaulted roof depend a hundred varied flagsd won from as many battle-fields, torn an. pierced and powder-burnt in the conflict Here the surviving veterans of Napoleon's army come to worship, some hacked and scarred, others with limbs upon the fields of Wagram, Marengo ar.d Austerlitz. As they marched up the long aisle, the organ pealed forth notes of the very symphony to which in boyhood I had listened In the vil lage burcb, where my voice first mingled my mother’s in the prayers and res ponses of the service. Louder swelled the strain, and louder still, until all the air was music. Gradually the tones sank away to the softness of a sighing zephyr. Then another organ, in a distant part of the chapel, caught the strain, and in flute-like notes, as tremulous and thrilling as the echoes from another world, swelled gently out, and the first orgsn joining in the harmony, both rose together, surging onward, dashing waves of blending melody, until the marble and porphyry, and verde*ntique beneath us and around, and the very granite walls of the venerable pile trembled and thrilled with music. The inspiration wag complete ; yet not the princely array of magnificence and beauty, which geuiusand skill, and wealth had wrought into a scene of surpassing love liness and imposing grandeur, nor yet the crowding memories of Napoleon, in his wild stormy career, but the symphony I had hoard in boyhood touched the key-uote of my being, and gentle tears, as grateful as April rain-drops, tempered with sunshine and the breath of SpriDg, rose up on the wings of melody from the depths of my soul. I was transfigured then, and memory and beauty were the Moses and Elias that, talked with my spirit in mystic words no mortal tongue may repeat. Around my life came a halo ot gladness, softer than rain bows, and brighter than sunbeams. I would not exchange the inspirations of that hour for whole years of common existence. All this display, too, of dazzling beauty and costly magnifleeuce is to perpetuate the deeds and the triumphs of the world’s great est captain. Yet not the weird splendor of the Hotel des Involutes, nor the proud col umn of Place Vondome rising high in grace ful proportions, with its spiral embossments representing the battle scenes in which the cannon forming it were captured from the enemy, and brought away amid shouts ol victory, nor yet the Triumphant Arch, standing in its grandeur and repose at the head of Champs FAysees, majestic and beau tiful enough for the gate-wav to the halls of Valhalla,—not all those, nor the proudest monuments wealth may rear, can touch the human heart with the thrilling eloquence of the old surtout, the three cornered hat, and the torn banner that lie upon the tomb of Napoleon. This, in all time, we strive to commemo rate the deeds of great nien, and to connect the present with the past; yet the memen toes themselves owe their significance, not to their cost or splendor, but to their rela tions to the idea they perpetuate, and to the spirit in which they are offered. The most notable remembrance of Luth er’s heroic life, is a black spot on the wall ofliii study at Wurlemberg, where he throw his inkstand at the head of the devil ; and the choicest relic of the American revolu tion, is the small rusty bell in Independence Hall at Philadelphia, where it rang out the first tocsin of liberty when the Declaration was signed. The alabaster box, worth three hundred pence, from which the woman annointed our Saviour's head, will never be forgotton. Jerusalem, with its temple ruins and its once proud monuments, its Mosque of Omar and Holy Sepulchre, is fast crumbling to decay, and the wild Bedoin of the desert roams its ruiu-obstructed streets. “When the foot-falls of time shall have trampled that Heaven favored city in the dust, and the hand of oblivion sprinkled the encroach ing sands of the desert upon it, so cunning ly, that the place where it now stands shall be lout forever, the jierfume of the little ala baster-box will be fresh in the memory of man. “Verily I say unto you, to whomsoever this gospel shall be preached in tho whole world, there shall ulso this, which this wo man hath done, be told for a memorial of her.” And where now. has this gospel not been preached? Beginning at Jerusalem, with a single champion against the world, and entrusted to a few fishermen and laborers, the glad t ; dings have spread, wave-like, over the redeemed earth, each wave a victor throb of the groat heart of Christ, until, “there is no speech nor languago where their voic<? im not Ik?**?**:!,* * until tl thoir tim is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.” For eigh teen centuries, the “ day-spring from on high ” has been rolling back the dark clouds of sin, error and uncleanness, of ignorance, superstition and idolatry, scattering in its flashing trail, like the rosy gems of Aurora, the diamond precious blessings of Christian ity, the pearl rich treasures of civilization, and the golden links ofbrothcrhoou to man. Wherever thisgospel has been moot exalted, there civil liberty, the light of science, tlie arts of peace, and the progress of man, have been most complete ; and there, too, has the a’— oa*ter-box—the type of Christian charity—shed a perfume sweeter than the rose of Sharon, or breathings from the gales of “ Araby the blest.” In the coming ages, when tho banner of the cross shall be unfurled in triumph from every Pagoda of Paganism, and every Mosque of the SaraceD, from every syna gogue of Judaism, and every strong-hold of the Infidel ; when temples to the living God shall adorn the wild jungles of Africa, and the grim ice-locked regions of the North ; when “ nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more,” and “ the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David, hath pre vailed to open the book, and to loose the sevtn seals thereof when tho gospel is sion shall be consummated, and the New Jerusalem, with its jasper walls and golden streets, its twelve foundations of sapphire and emerald, and all manner of precious stonea, and its twelve pearly gates, shall be complct don earth, and the glory of God shall lighten it, then shall the periume of that woman’s alabaster box rise in iu sweet ness, like the incense of love, before the throne of God, for a memorial of her for ever. i Thus, the value of heart offerings is counted, not by the clink of coiu, but by k throbs of sympathy and love. Though you come, to-day, beloved gradu ates, with no costly gifts, you offer a memo rial to a a great event in the history of the world, and a deserved tribute to tbo worth and genius of a remarkable man. For more than three thousand rears, rivers of blood ‘ had flowed from human veins until the smell of it hail gone up to nil the stars, dim ming those myriad, glittering foot-prints of God along the highways of the universe. Could Padnlirius, the son of ASseulapius, who first opened the crimson floid-gates of life, see the ruin that has followed, in fren zied bitterness of soul he would exclaim, “W 1 at I and* sr bi-re ? H ! Ihev pluck out mine eyes! Will*ll mvxt Neptune's man tb! W<v and from my iitiiU ? So ; this my will rather The n.ultltmlliir.ui ni Inet rnsdihe, .Mail's ’lie grtirn—one ted.” For three centuries, Mercury, more bale ful than the withering star above the pool of Mulcbolge in Dante’s 11011, has scattered its monuments all ulong the path of time, in loathsome ravages on the human frame, in walking skeletons, and untimely deaths. Wasting poisons, the excruciating blister, the torturing seton and the burning ruoxa had multiplied their hecatombs of human victims, until “ Death did hla work In secret and In Joy liittwc, untold, .A'tnouyh an ea-thquak-smacked luanraibllsg lips O’er turn* thick peopled city .” From amid the green meadows and sunny hilbeides of New England a Heaven-gifted ton of the Pilgrims rose up, and though as unlettered as the fishermen of Judea, yet with the inspiration of nature fresh upon him, he rebuked the gory tide, and it has ceased to flow. He uttered his fiat against poisons as medicines, and they have ever since been, “Growin* small, and benuUful'y Iras,’’ until it has become fashionable to swallow them only in infinitessimal doses, the nearer nothing the better. Consulting alone the great volume of Na ture, he learned lessons that arc revolutio I izing the Medical World, lie founded a system of Medicine destined to confer un told blessings upon countle.-s millions of our race, and immortality on his name. With aCurtiaa daring he proclaimed dis discov eries, and the principles of his system to the world, though answered only by persecu tion and violence, by a noisesomo prison dungeon and a felon’s galling chains—gall ing alike to body and soul. Yet he shall not l>e without his reward, such reward as Nature bestows on her fa vorite sons. VV hen the name and the fiery deeds of Napoleon shall have become a myth amongst men, when the Hotel des In valides, Place Vendome and Are de Tri omphe des Etoilcs, have crumbled into dust, and rank glass is waving, and tall trees growing above the forgotten spot where now stands that beautiful city, tho laughing bride of the Seine, the discoveries and prin ciples of Samuel Thomson will be in the prime of their triumph, and his fame a glo ry-star in the.azure firmament of immortal ity. This nobie system of medicine, and its il lustrious founder you commemorate by placing these mementoes upon the walls of your Alma Mater. And, although they are offered in honor of ONE tbe latchet of whose shoes we are’scarcely worthy to un loose, you have made us the almoners of your offering. For my colleagues, and the institution I have the honor to repressent, 1 thank you for this token of affectionate re gard ; and wheresoever the healing gospel of Medical Reform shall be preached in tho whole world, may also this, which you to day have done, bo^told for a memorial of you. Whilst you manifest this wish to bo re membered by us, and to offer a remembrancer to a great name, a feeling, almost correla tive to your qw n, is actuating us—a feeling, the deepest and strongest of our nature. It is a desire for successors, worthy what we have toiled fu and won. Patriarchs and Prophets, kings and conquerors, all men in all ages, have shown this to be common to the great brotherhood of man. Our Saviour appointod his successors with formal solem nity. Napoleon sacrificed to this sentiment the noblest affections of his heart, and the happiness of his life. Manoah burnt a kid upon a rock in 2k)rah, to propitiate the mes senger who had promised him a son, and an angel of the Lord rose on the flame of the sacrifice towards Heaven, and in due time Sampson was born to deliver his peoplo from the hand of the Philistines, and to rule : over Israel. We, too, 10. these many years, I have brought our annual offerings, and laid them hopefully upon the Altar of Science. We have seen tho angel of truth rising heavenward on tho flame and incense, leav ing our Altar wreathed in fadeless flowers of Hope, and greeting us with a smile of promised triumph ; ard Lo ! a thousand young Sampsons, unshorn of their locks, are ! rising up around us, to deliver man from the Philistines of error, suffering, and prema ture death. They will sweep over the time i withered cornfields of antiquated medical j fallacies, with a conflagration more terrific than was ever kindled by three hundred foxes, with fire-brands tied to their tails, two by two. To j our sacred keeping we commit the for tunes of that cause to which so many ot us j have devoted the best j-ears of life. We | scarcely need charge you, be faithful to tho I trust. Is not our cause worthy such devo ’ tion ? Will not our modes of treatment save life, have they not saved thousands of lives where all others have failed ? Statistics show that those who oppose us lose fiftj T per cent of Cholera patients, while we lose hut flfoi In tlmt poriodic eoourgti of UUrSliniiy and golden South, Yellow Fever, tliej’ lose, at least, ten eases to our one. Thedisparitj’ is similar iu all malignant forms of disease. In our own beautiful city, in all our favored land, wc sec strong men in tbe prime and vigor of life, young men with the flush of manhood just mantling the cheek, beauty with the roses of health wreathing her brow, rosy childhood, and laughing infancy, with ering and falling befoie an antiquated false hood, whilst our mild and sanative treatment would have saved them to their families, their country and the world. Their loss is charged upon Providence. Providence is more kind than that. With the right treat ment, Providence permits all curable cases of disease to be restored to health. In tho proud consciousness of being right, with the unfaltering assurance that the right will be crowned with tho fadeless victor wreath of triumph, we hail these new re cruits with a glad welcome to our swelling ranks. Sixty years ago there was but one Medical Reformer iu the world. Now there arehman thousands, “With arm to strike, and soul to daro, As quick, as far as be.” The final contest between superanuutod theories and the now truths discovered by Samuel Thompson is near at hand. Let it come.. In the battle of Trafalgar, in which the British fleet, under Lord Nelson, met the combined fleets of France and Spain, the latter presented the finest nnd best manned line-of-battle ships that ever floated on the sea; and far excelled the former, both in numbers and in force. After composing a prayer for vietory, nnd committing lm life to tbe God of Baltics, Lord Nelson came on deck, calm ns a summer-evening slar, with an almost prophetic consciousne,- and ietory would both meet hint in the coming battle. As they were bearing down tij>on the enemy, himself on board the “Vic tory,” he ordered to be run up that memora ble signal, which will not bo forgotten whil. t the English language is spoken on earth, “Fnglund expects etcry man to do his duty.” Along the line the signal flags rose fluttering to their places, and with them a responsive burst of acclamation so sublime that the winds nnd waves were bushed to listen. “Now,” said he, “I can do no more. We must trust to the great Disposer of all events, and the justness of our cause.” In the hottest of the fight, when the Vic tory, Sanctissima Trinidad, the Redoubtable, and Temcraire were grappled side by side in deadly conflict, Lord Nelson received his death shot, surviving but three hours and a quarter. A few moments before ho expired ■ he said to bis chaplain, “Remember, I leave my adopted daughter Horatia to my coun try.” llis last faint utterance was, “I thank God, I have done my duty.” The French Admiral drowned himself from mortification at the defeat. We, too, are bearing down upon the ene my. Our sails aro set; dur colors are proud ly fluttering in the gale. From the effort to hang Samuel Thompson ns a murderer, fifty years ago, to their last pop-gun pro mi n ciuments by the popinjay fifth corporal of tho Death Zouave*, in which wenre set down ns “Pepper D<ctors” and “Lobeliaites,” par excellence, they have left unemployed no means in their power to discomfit us. Their batteries of ridicule and calumny, (not calo mel), of intolerance and persecution have been incessantly opened upon us. Yet, shielded by the eternal panoply of Truth, their shots have fallen harmless at our feet. They now change their taetics, and adopt anew mode of warfare. They are attempt ing to purloin from us all that is most valu able in our Principles and Practice, appro priating it, and the credit of our discoveries to themselves, with tbe nonchalance of pro fessional pirates, still cherishing a secret bitterness, and venting open hatred to wards us for breaking their lancets and disk ing their poisons I repeat it, let the con test eome. Though wo have no mean ene my 10 cope withal,” and numbers and force are against us, like Lord Nelson at Trafal gar, wo aro confident of victory. We must face antiquity, book authority, professional and popular prejudice, pretensions inflated toad-like, talent, wealth, organization, and all that can give eolat to a bad cause. But antiquity is a dotard, their authority is time worn and worm-eaten, prejudice will give way, at a touch of the Ithurial Spear of truth, iheir wind-bag of pretensions, like tho toad in Milton’s Paradise, will assume its normal shape, and talent, wealth and organ ization cannotsave their sinking ship. I am no Admiral, or Vice-Admiral as Nelson was, yet from this, our flag-ship “ Victory,” the Institution I represent, I dare raise tho battle signal, your profes sion “ expects every man to do his duty.” The cause of Science, and of blistered bleed ing humanity, Truth weeping between the the porch and the altar, God and your coun try, each, “ EXPECTS EVERY MAN TO DO IIIS DUTY.” And as tho signal runs along the serried line of heroic hearts, let a burst of acclamation ascend so loud and earnest, so impressive and sublime that the enemy will give up the ship in terror, and drown himself in the sea of despair. Trusting to the great disposer of all events and the justness of our cause, wo shall ever he ready, to leave that cause with you ; be queathing our adopted daughter, the youth ful and beautiful Hygia to our country and the world. May each of us in tho flush of victory, though it be our last utterance, be able to say, in the dying though deathless words of Nelson, “ I thank God I have done my duty.” Again, gentlemen, I welcome you to the ranks of our profession, and your pictures to our halls. We accept the gift as an expres sion of your confidence in our principles, and we will retain it ns a pledge of your faithfulness in their maintenance. I thank you again for this token of kindness to us and affection for the cause into whose scale our fortunes of life arc cast. As we look upon those familiar faces, they will not only remind us of the many pleasant hours we have passed together along tin* flowery paths of knowledge, but they w ill ever speak to us eloquently of the talent and zeal you have manifested in all our intercourse with you. They will he an everpresent assurance to us that we have men in our ranks capable of defending and sustaining our doctrines and that when future fifth corporals shall sprout up and call us naughty names, we have many “Vindications” able to blister them, ad drliquivm. I thank you, Ladies, for the inspiring influence of your presence, and the charm yon have, added to the scene. May your smiles of beauty • and love be ns rays from the golden sta: of Promise, winning those young recruits to noble deeds, and a fame that shall he immortal. GEORGIA CITIZEN. L. F. W.

Shall we lend the needed aid of $200,000 or $250,000 ? If wo do not, tho enterprise may fail, and another route, (via Covington and Griffin,) l>e selected by Augusta to reach the South W est. _ ■Sallad Concert. —Next week wo are to have tho accomplished American tenor, Ilenry Squires, of the Academies of Uu£ic, New York, Boston, &c., aided by the wonderful and talented child, little Mary McVicker, whoso precocious musical development has astonished every body who has ever heard her j)erfi*rmances. j Our neighbor lias spoken ! The Journal A Messenger, of last week, in noticing tho Card of the Suvanuah Republiean, in answer to some calls on the Executive Committee, for action, has given the public an inkling of the policy to Vie pursued hy that Journal, in the approaching Presi dential campaign, which may lie of some little inter est to ottr readers. The Journal approves the delay of actios on the port of the committee, and wtys that ‘-tile effect of an opposition ei uvention would probably l>e to show our weakness, and commit the party, prematurely to a liue of policy which might have to !>e abandoned or sink it forever.” It further shows its hand,as fol lows : ‘ Should our democratic friends present good men and true, upon a sound and broad constitutional ba sis, it mny lx; the patriotic duty ns well as the best policy of the Opposition, to give them their cordial support. Tho safety of the Union requires that Black Republicanism and sectionalism should lx* broken down. This can only he done hy the union of conservative democrats, wings and Americans.” Now we respectfully ask. is there any hope, what ever. that the Charleston convention will nominate any such candidates? Not in the least unless Doug las is such a man, or Andy Johnson or Gov. Wise.— If the Democrats nominate an extreme Southern man, he w ill be a sectional candidate and arrayed against a <rh'onu£candiilate, North. This will make it the more necessary for tho formation of a national and conservative Union Party, opposed to all section alism and built upon the broad hosts of the Constitu tion, as it stands. In either ease,-it is, in out opin ion, the duty of the American Party of Georgia to prepare for whatever emergency may arise. If or ganized and showing a bold front, it will lx* in better condition to dictate terms to the adversary, than if it wore defunct, or laid up in lavender, or in one of Dr. lJudolphe’scamphor-wood trunks, where the ntoths cannot get at its ehreass to corrupt it! If, therefore, the Executive Committee appointed to do the work of calling a convention—not to make a platform for the party—will not do their duty, in the premises, we hope they will resign the trust committed to them, and let the people take the mat ter into their own hands. We ought hi have a con vention, at any rate, as soon after the meeting at Charleston as possible, to determine whether we shall go over, as the Journal & Messenger proposes to di>, ‘-horse, foot and dragoons,” to tho Democracy— or raise aloft our ow n broad national American stan dard, in an independent organization, and the time is now short enough for tho people to assemble in primary mooting, for the purpose of appointing Del egates to such convention, and we trust there will be no further delay in making the call. P. S.—Since the above article was written, we have been informed that the Executive Committee will 1 meet, in this city, on the Kith inst. This is well, and we would suggest that the Editors of the American Party, in the State, do also meet here in convention, at the same, time, to consult together as to the best policy tobe pursued by the lratemity, as a body.— The committee, we doubt not, will Vie glad to have their recommendations approved in the outset, hy the press,on whom the burden will devolve, of c.-rriy ing out the measures which may be proposed. If not, the Editorial Fraternity could act independent | ly, at freemen ou-rht to do, who control the “‘fourth j estate” of tho realm, and no longer submit to be mere “hewi-ra rs wood and drawers of water” to political aspirants. We do not anticipate, however, tiny essential disagreement between tho Executive Committee and the Press—if good counsels prevail and a conciliatory spirit is manifested. We at e for a united and vigorous movement, for tho advancement of the best interests of the country, and have no per sonal ambition te gratify or private purposes to serve, beyond what Patriotism will dictate. Spurgeon's Kooks.— The people of Montgomery, Ala., have collected and made a burnt offering of Spurgeon’s Sermons on account of tho abolition doctrines and anti slavery denunciations of this London preacher ! This is an example that should he followed hy every Bookseller and every co nun unit}’ in the Soutli ! “What say our Booksellers to the proposition ? Will they continue to sell the vile productions ? Council Frocectliiifi'i. —Wo owe an apology, perhaps, to our city readers, for the non-publication, last week, of the pro ceedings of the City Council of Feb. 28. The reason was tkit we were not furnished with the copy in seasou for Thursday’s issue. The proceedings of Feb. 28 and March Gth will be found in another place, and we will not fail to publish the proceedings of each Tues day evening’s meeting in tho following Thursday’s paper, provided we can get the manuscript by 12, noon of Wednesday. As the City Printer, we are entitled to tho privilege of first publishing the proceodings of Council, and take this occasion to protest against the practico of one of our cotempora ries anticipating the publication of the same in the Citizen. It is clearly a trespass upon our rights, for the Telegraph so to publish, as we thereby lose one of the perqui sites attached to the office of City Printer— that of increased subscription to the Citizen, from the authorized publication of the pro ceedings first in its columns. If there is any sense of propriety or of tho comity due on such occasions, the offence will not he re peated, unless wo fail to do our duty, in the premises. Hon. John A. Campbell.— Some of the papers have mentioned the name of judge Campbell* of Mo bile, Ala., as a proper man for the Presidency, on whom to unite the South. We don’t think lie will be gin to do. He has been too much of an Old School Federalist ever since he became United States Judge, and too intensely given to an Anti South ern view of public measures, ever to receive a large Southern vote.
