Free Trad«-
On our firtt psg* will he found an essay
on Free Trad*, irritten by a gentleman well
and favorably known in Georgia. The coK
loquy will doubtless interest, if it does not
convince the reader.
deauneiatioai to which we have refer-
Ott the other hand, we too ahall denounce,
aa we hatra denooneod. But We ehall do eo
in wfadoaa, in jnetlee, in moderation. We
shall do so heewend WAn did make, in
our judgment, nn oWielH
apeech, to advance the-' pieVetMi)H|d 'of thi
free soiiers in Kan'saa; and becau
are advised, he did threaten the rejeetie*
Congress of a State Conetitu*^", should
that constitution be other *** n what he in
timated and argued <* ought to be. lor thi*
we have replied, we have denounced Gov.
Wal k ‘ r ' But we deny that there is any evi
dence to prove that Gov. Walker was au
thorized, much less instructed, to pursue
such a course in Kansas, by Mr. Buchanan.
The resolutions of the Cincinnati Conven
tion gave him no such license. The inau
gural of Mr. Buchanan gave him no such
power, Nor did the instructions which he
received from the Secretary of State author
ize him to act as he has acted. And until
we are satisfied that the reverse of all this
is true, we shall not imitate the “ American
Party” in denouncing Mr. Buchanan
But. at the head of this article, we have
said “ Censure in your Wisdom!” An able
cotemporary, the Richmond Enquirer, thinks
that unnecessary and undeserved abuse has
been heaped upon Walker for saying that
when the Constitution is submitted to the
people of that territory for ratification, or
rejection bv them at the polls, “ all the tree
white inhabitants'' of that territory, of legal
age, should be permitted to vote. That pa
per argues that the term “ inhabitant” means
nothing more than Legal Residkncs ; and it
thus proceeds to show that Governor Walk
er has been misunderstood, and, in this
particular, has been misrepresented. Without
endorsing, we give it to our readers, that
they may “ in their wisdom," reject or ap-
The Cauvilla Standard.
Milton E. Candler, Esq., has retired from
the Cassville Standard. That paper is now
edited by John H. Rice, Esq., with whose
salutatory we are much pleased, and whose
views on the great political question* that
now agitate the South are both conservative
and just. Under all circumstances, the
change in the conduct of the Cassville
Standard will be agreeable to the democracy
of Georgia.
Commencbment at Athens
The Commencement exercises of Frank
lin College will begin at the Chapel on to
morrow morning “with the preaching of
the Commencement Sermon, and will wind
up on Thursday, with the addresses before
the Literary Societies, by Hon. L. M. Keitt,
of South Carolina. The Alumni Address
will be delivered on Tuesday afternoon, by
our gifted townsman, Tlios. R. R. Cobb,
Esq. Monday will be devoted to the Sophs.
Tuesday morning to the Juniors, and Wed
nesday to the Seniors.”
Pint Congressional District.
The Democratic Convention to nominate
a candidate for the first Congressional Dis
trict, assembled at Brunswick on the 07th
ultimo, and nominated the Hon. James I..
Seward for re-election. The nomination
was unanimous—a just tribute to the ser
vices which that gentleman has rendered his
district in Congress. The “ bogus con-
vsntton” that nominated his opponent, we
trust, will be rebuked by ihe democracy of
the first district, in an emphatic manner at
the polls in October next. In Congress, Mr
Seward long since acquired the reputation
of not only being a faithful and able, but a
ilurking representative. On all national,
political questions, he has proved true to the
South ; and no man has labored with great
er energy and zeal to advance and protect
the interests of his district, than Mr.
Sew ard has to advance and protect those of
his own. For the interests of Savannah he
has hauled manfully, and w ith a success
that entitles him to the gratitude of not only
her eititsns, but of all other sectisns of the
State. Savannah is Georgia's own sea-port,
and we therefore trust that she will again be
represented by Mr. Seward'in Congress. Ins
deed, we have no feara but that she will
be
“Cenaure in your Wisdom.’
Our “ American" friends are rehement in
their denunciations of Walker. But in their
denunciations of Mr. Buchanan and his
cabinet, they know no restraint. Talk of
“ fire-eaters /”—why, the South Carolina
nulliler of 1332 was “ no where” when
compared with the “Americans" ot the
present day ! General Jackson, when tic
issued his famous proclamation, and threa
tened, as it was charged, to hang John C.
Calhoun, was denounced less fiercely and
bitterly in that good old State, than Mr,
Buchanan now is in Georgia by a party
from its antecedents, having no right to do
so—to wit, the, par excellence, “ American
Party !" At tins strange demonstration, we
look with surprise—nay, we wonder, and
have come to the conclusion that they have
quite “ overshot the mark,” in their “ wild
hum after office.” For in their sincerity,
the people hare no confidence; in their
wisdom, the people will not trust. This
a fast age; the 1 Americans’ are a fast people ;
and as Judge Brown remarked at Newnan,
they ‘ have a last candidate for Governor,*
tc elect whom they now play most fantastic
tricks, not the least of which are the dataa-
prove tt.
In denouncing Gov. Walker for usnig the
word “ inhabitant, H the opponents of the Ad
ministration exhibit an almost inexcasable
ignorance of the meaning of that word. They
contend that it is Tery different in its signifi
cance from the word “dtizen,” and that it
embraces “interloper--," “ adventurers" and
“ visten” who may happen to be in Kansas
when the Constitntion is submitted to tbe
people. They »y tba‘. if all the “inhabitants"
are allowed to vote, the Aid Societies of Mas
saebasetts will pour in their thousands of illo-
coters, and that every man in Kansas will
be authorized to vote, whether he is there
with this purpose of residing permanently or
not’;
“The word “inhabitant," with tbe class of
Walker’s enemies, is a “Pandora's box," from
which all sorts ol nomadic vagabonds Issue to
stitle the true voice of the citizens of Kansas.”
“We have been utterly at a loss to under
staDd from what legal decision, essay on citi—
zeaship, dictionary, or obiter dicta of some ob
scure judge, they have obtained their mistaken
idea of the meaning ef the word inhabitant.
And, as all tbe rules of construction require
that words should be regarded as having been
used in their usual seme, we propose to see
how far Gov. Waiker merits tbe abuse of any
intelligent man, for wishing the “inhabitants"
of Kansas to vote for the ratification or the
rejection of tbe Constitution of Kansas. To
ascertain precisely what is tbe exact meaning
of the obooxipus word abont which so much
has been written, we shall quote tbe definition
whicti we find in the unabridged Dictionary of
Noah Webster
*Tst. Isuabitascy t residence, habitancy,

Whetory description of the e«ar—** ’
thanHtiMfiptflRfc?. ; Oregon is high in
northern latitude, pUltDas not a severe
climate, lie summers are less intensely
warm than on the Atlantic side, and its win
ters are characterized by almost continuous
rains, beneath which cattle lives shelterless,
subsisting upon the perennial grasses. It
is a great country for the cereals, fruits, and
other products. As soon ss correct hnowl—
edge in regard to it shall prevail in the At
lantic States, the •northern hive’ will again
swarm.
I spoke in my hist of the proscriptive vine
culture in this country. 1 learn that Dr.
Butts, of North Carolina, has produced a
variety ef grapes of such excellence for wine
making that I.ongworlh, of Cincinnati, has
ordered 10,000 cuttings to he sent to him forth
with. This may be interesting to the grape
growers of South Carolina.
From various parts of the country the best
assurances come tothe Patent Office respect
ing the success of the Chinese Sugar cant'.
The experiments of ex-Govemor Hammond,
of South Carolina, last year, as well as oth
ers, gave a great impetus to this culture.
Oa Saaiisy* Mr. Brown, of the firm of Tuttle
Js Bkown, fcwjnt* ie runjor that Dr. Wade
tad iweeounced the case one of yellow fever,
requested Dr. Brady tocall and sec the patient.
He did so about one o'clock, nn Sunday after
noon, and found that lie had just expired, lie
found that the symptoms were redness of the
body; hemorrhage of the (juths and black
vomit, aud pronounced the ease one of yellow
fever.
lo Its than four hotfrs after his death ,he un
dertaker removed the body to Cypress Hills
Cemetery.
Tbe Health Officer hearing of tbe case, pro
cured the assistance of two colored men and
caused thc|beddii!g, mattrass and his clothing
lo be buried.
Deceased was last employed at work repair
ing the bark Abrnhauis and the brig Sears of
New York, but from what port they had Inst
sailed is not known.
Quite a number of persons bud visited the
sick man, and if it was really yellow fever the
consequences may be very serious.-S. Y, Daily
Neu's.
perceive by the journals that Governor Ham
monds is now trying the Implies, brought by
Mr. \V ray from Africa, by way of France,
and which ho pronounced superior to the
former; and I perceive that Mr. Peters, of
Atlanta, Georgia, is also experimenting with
it. Mr. Wray is saiil to posses a secret
means of crystalizing the juice of this lni-
phee. This may be so, but we must try all
things for ourselves. It may bo set down
as certain, however, that, in the introduc
tion of one or both of these-plants, much has
been added to the agricultural wealth of the
country.
Mr. Brown, of the Agricultural Bureau of
the Patent Office, expresses himself confi
dent of the successful culture of Tea in the
United States, and especially in the. higher
regions of the Carolina* and Georgia. He
says that it has been demonstrated that the
tea plant will grow well here, and of as good
flavor as in China. All that remains lo be
tasted is, whether American skill and inven
tion will enable us to produce it at as low-
price* as it is made in China in their primi
tive modes, tho expenses of transportation
and general profits being, of course, also de
ducted in the latter case. Mr. Brown ex
pects, befote the lapse of ten years, to hear
a universal expression of amazement at the
folly of which wo have so long been guilty,
in paying millions per year for an article so
easily and so satisfactorily produced upon
onr own soil.
We have advices, by an arrival to-day,
from England, and, in news through that
medium, the difficulties in India are, of
course, treated as lightly as possible; and
yet they are serious enough to show that,
when other nations enter into a determined
competition with England tor the trade of
China, it will be divided. She liqa no su
premacy there that can secure to her a mo
nopoly.
Th* States of to-day has an article in opol-
ogy for any apparent remissness on the part
of the Secretary of the Navy, on the ground
that the Naval Courts have embarrassed the
Department. It is very doubtful whether
there is anything connected with the Gov
ernment that they do not embarrass. The
attempt to cure a wrong by persisting in it,
is, of course, a failure. Out three Naval
Courts will find work enough to do between
this and the next session, and would, if that
session were two years off) keeping the Na
vy Department and the Navy in a ferment
all the time; and then the result would riot
please Congress, nor will the action of Con
gress please the country. There are and have
been bad men enough in the navy, yet it is
not best to make them destroy each other,
and especially in secret council, and for un
known reasons. It is true this particular
objection does not apply to the present courts;
but who, in any walk of life, can stand up
and defend his general character and partic
ular actions for a term of years past I

The recent appointment of the Hon. K

ken and considered to be somewhat signifi
cant of the views, wishes, and intentions of
the Executive. He has resolved not to wait
forever, for if “ few die and none resign,
how shall those who deserve well, and have
potent claims, be gratified or satisfied.

fered the mission to Berne, Switzerland.—
Gen. Brawley by Ins own unaided exertions
has accumulated a sufficient fortune, and
has no desire to go so far away from home,
and especially from the President, and will
therefore take a subordinate but not less
useful, honorable or responsible position.
It is understood that he has accepted the

High-handed Robbery.—A most outrageous
robbery was committed about two o’clock
yesterday morning on an emigrant family on
the Peru road, a little this side of Utica.—
Christian Hurst, from Cass county, Michi
gan, was moving with his family to Missouri.
On Friday evening he camped on a small
stream near Utica, about 7 miles west of
Ottawa. Next morning a yoke of oxen had
disappeared, and supposing they had strayed
offlie spent a day or two in searching for
them, and finally, on Monday, caiue to Ot
tawa and had bills printed, arid started back
in the direction he had coine to search for
them. On Thursday evening, Mr. H. being
still absent,-and bis wife anu son, (a lad of
l7,j and several small children remaining
with the wagon, a stranger came up ami
feigning intoxication, asked to ho allowed
to stay with them all night. Not liking his
appearance they drove him off. Mrs. H. was
alarmed, and that night persuaded the young
man, who had hitherto slept under the wag
on, to sleep inside with her and the children.
About two o'clock in the morning, the wag
on cover on one side was suddenly cut open,
several men leaped in, Mrs. H. seized and
gagged, the boy grasped a rifle that hung
overhead, hut was also seized by two or three
men and pimoued. In the scuffle the rifle
was discharged, the ball grazing and inflict
ing a slight wound on the young man’s cheek.
The men then broke open a chest in the wag
on and took from it $9<HI in gold, mostly in
$20 pieces, and $200 in bills. Tbe young
man, mother, and cyen children, were aU
searched, and every cent about them taken.
The men then left, going in the direction of
Utica. How many there were, Mrs. H.
and the boy could not determine, it being
dark at the time. There may have been from
three to half a dozen. A bowie knife case
was dropped by the robbers, which is at the
office of Esq, Fisher.
As soon as it was light, Mrs. II. and her
son started tor Ottawa, and on the way met
the father wtio was just returning unsuccess
ful from his search for the lost oxen.
As soon as information reached Ottawa,
deputy sheriff Grow, constable English and
others started injpursurt of the robters, but
with what success we are at present unable
to report.—Ottawa Free Trader, 19th.
Mg?’’The .Speakership of the next House of
Bepresentalivea appeals, by general consent,
to be awarded to llou- James L.Urr,of South
Carolina, who is now in New York, on bis re
tan from a protracted tour through the North
Western territories.
The Hood Time Coming.—A lady was fined
$5 and costs the other day in Boston, for
taking up the entire side walk with her de
testable hoop petticoats. A policeman test
ified that when sho stopped in the walk, as
she often did, people were driven into the
gutter, which, when the streets were muddy,
was a very serious matter, for that Boston
mud is the nastiest kind of mud. Gentlemen
had bean driven into the streets, at the risk
of being run over by teams and carriages,
the policeman himself had barely escaped
with his life a day or two before, being in
full chase after a thief who had got ahead of
him, he met, unfortunately, this huge young
lady who had sailed from a side street into
the thoroughfare,.where he was following up
the thief, and in order to get ahead of her
the policeman rushed into the gutter, along
came a pair of horses full chisel, and our
frightened policeman nearly gave up the
ghost; for the wheels of the coach scraped
him, he scraped the lady’s hoops, and she
scraped the buildings, a terrible scrape all
around. The policeman procured a polo, ami
succeeded in touching iier shoulders, and
bawled out to her that she was under arrest
for obstructing the walks, and that she must
go with him before Justice Shallow. Ho
took her, that is to say he nodded to the lady
and intimated by a significant jerk of the
head that she must ‘jest come along now,’
and tho lady went. Arriving at the Justice’s
office the policeman could not get her past
the large hall; her crinoline would not ad
mit of her getting into the office of the jus
tice. So the justiee left his seat and went
into the front hall, saw exactly how things
hung, ami that it was no use to attempt to
squeeze that petticoat into his court room,
and fined herthe half eagle and costs, stating
that it was the most outrageous spread lie
ever laid his legal eyes upon, n hy can’t
wo have a little of that justice in this city !
Personal.—The Hon, T. II. Benton, (ac
cording to the States,) sits a horse more
gracefully, perhaps, than any other man in
Washington ; aud probably rides the pret
tiest animal—a glossy black, of agile anti
slender frame. The little hoy generally at
his side is a handsome rider, and lias a fine
little animal under his saddle, but seems to
enjoy the sometimes successful kicks it
makes at the dogs at its heels. Mr. Ben
ton’s nag never condescends to this. Had
Ac done so throughout life, what a terrible
waste of energy there would have been !
Eastern Fashions.—A young and very rich
mau while taking a walk in the suburban vil
lage of Ulevelaud, Ohio, on Wednesday lust
met a young, fashionable, and very pretty mar
ried lady, and after chatting very pleasantly
with her, received and accepted an Invitation
to call nt her bouse next morning when her hus
band would be ‘down town.’
The engagement was kept; the lady was fas
cinating, charming, seductive; the young man
fasciuuted, charmed, seduced. But in the midst
of their joy the husband broke ia and raved
furiously.
Husband swore, and presented pistols: lady
fainted aDd put on a wrapper; young man trem
bled and asked for life. Husband relented, and
would keep quiet for 83000; young nmn gain
ed aud proposed I300;busband consented; young
man guve check for 81,000 and paid 830o in
cash, and then departed.
He told his friends; they were indignant,
and at length got out a warrant; an officer
went, off to look for the injured husband and
faithless wife; he found them shopping, having
already obtained the money on the cheek; lie
carried them to jail.
They got afraid, paid back 81,250, and were
set free, both giving a release for all damages
