twiggl of* gallant memory.
. We have just been gratified; at a sight
of a letter from an intelligent gentleman
of this county. lie speaks in sanguine
terms of our nominee for the Executive,
and says he is the favorite of the Democ
racy in that section. He further says,
that Scott Whigs will not fellowship with
♦Jenkins, who linked his fortunes to a dead
man, rather than sustain the victorious
hero of Lundy’s Lane and Cerro Gordo.
, We have a fast ticket for the Legisla
ture, the Hon. Payton Reynolds, a gen
tleman without reproach, and Mr. Shorter
Griffin, a young effective and ardent cam
paigner. Our only impediment consists iu
the fact, that Dr. Gibson has been induced
to present his name in opposition to Mr
Griffin. We arc not mistaken when we
say we know the Doctor too well, to en
tertain the slightest doubt, but that the
embarrassment will be purely temporary,
tie has too often l?d the columns of old
Twiggs to a shining victory, now to lot
her bright fame and lustrous colors be
dimmed by a defeat to which he may have
contributed. We would say to our gallant
Twiggs friends, a dark shade rests upon
your once pure and spotless escutcheon
from your last dishonored contest. And
we now invoke you in the name of your
proverbial heroism and devotion to friend
and principles, to draw your swords and
give them to the god of battle, until there
*hall be a signal triumphant restoration of
the honor and fame of your arms.
The last Macon Telegraph contains
an article going to slmw-that Mr. Jenkins
was, previous to 1850, as much of a
S >utliern Convention man as the worst
tiri'-eater amongst us. It needs no ghost
from the grave to tell us that. Every
one acquainted with the leading politici
ans of the day, know that they were all
fire-eaters, with scarcely a solitary ex
ception, previous to 1850. Toombs,
Jenkins, Stephens, were as rank as any.
All assisted to get up the Nashville Con
vention. It was altogether an after
thought of the whigs—knowing that the
democrats acted from principle, and
would adhere to their principles—we say
it was altogether an after-thought ot the
whigs to back out from the Nashville
Convention, set up the cry of disunion,
and leave the democrats, with “the bag*
lo hold.” This is known to every body,
and requires no argument. Ar.d we
would not be surprised lo see the time,
and that erelong, when these same whig
gentlemen slionld step forw-ard and claim
all the honor and all the glory of getting
up that patriotic Convention.
(Communicated.]
Mr. Editor , — I desire through your col
umns, to call the publicattention to a Soth
e n Mathematical text book, which de
serves introduction into our home schools,
academies and Colleges, not more on ac
count of its Southern authorship than be
cause of its undeniable merits.
I refer to McCormick’s Aiithrnetic, by
I’rof. Loudon J. McCormick of Alabama.
Mr. McC -is a gentleman of finish- j
*d education, extensive research and un-j
questionable mathematical genius; and i
his work exhibits the most thorough and j
philosophical system of mathematical!
instruction I have ever seen embodied in j
a simple arithmetical work.
The rudiments] principles of atitlnne j
tic, geometry and natural philosophy are-j
so beautifully and at the same time so j
simply and naturally combined, that the
public, under a most common instruc
tor. must appreciate and understand the
connexion. It will not, of course, he
denied, by any one professing a knowl
edge of the sciences, that the three above
named branches are very intimately con
nected one with the other—and tnat a
work combining the rudimental princi
ples of the two latter, together with every
important and necessary principle of the
former, is a desideratum w’hich obtained
will, if deservedly patronized, subserve
every end sought for in the premises.—
Let any teacher, any professional man,
who possesses any interest whatever in
this most particular and important branch
of educational science, examine the work
in question, and, if he be a man who can
appreciate such a worker form a correct
estimite of its combined advantages, he
must no* only use it himself, but exercise
iis influence lo insure its introduction
into our seminaries ot learning.
liut 1 sholud reflect, Mr. Ktliior,that it is
a Southern work, composed and executed
here with, us in the South ; and perhaps i
am saying too much when I declare that
we ought to assist in the dissemination
of this usrful work amongst us.
I do not mean to say that there are in
competent judges here, or that teachers
from the “Big Norrid 11 monopolize the
instructive chair (although I must confess
vt h/trunt jJurissimi suni) but I mean pos
itively to ask Southern teachers if they
w ill, if they can, continue to encourage
and patroni-e these miserable little two
penny abortions of Yankee text books
when such an admirable school book is
before you? Mere is a work by a South
ern scholar, printed here, and sought to
be dksetnina'ed amongst the au'hoi s
own fellow Southerners; combining not
only the rudimental but the interlinear
and thorough princip'es of aritmnetic,
simply, concisely, and yet perspicuously
and without abstruseness set forth, I
challenge any man to produce a better
at the old South or the Big Norrid —and
if a better cannot be produced, then v:hy
not take the one before us f not only
Southern in its authorship (and all the bet-
ter for that ) but supeiior in its instructors
character.
But lain sorry that I mentioned the
work's Southern origin, for I am afraid
that it will prove highly detractive to the
interest of the author, not only as prever.-
tive of the sale and patronage of the
work, hut as tending to decrease its esti
mate in the eyes of Southern institutions
as a valuable and highly instructive text
hook.
Yet 1 hope that the spirit which is be
,ng awakened throughout the South as
..•> oyr owq resources will
,iot slumber here, s*nd tht tycCorrick’s
Arithmetic will receive that share of
the public confidence end patronage
which its merits deserves and ifcs south
•ro authorship demands. W. F. W.
