Oae of the proprietors of tbe -Southern Cit

the civilized world. He is known as on-, who
bacSjared more for ibe cans- of civil and r- i-

that now breathe 1 the breath o! tilt And he
is known as having dared in. the new «,t i a

liar to every ear ; while his manly defence of
Southern Rights, is yet fresh >n tbe modi of
tae Southern people When as the Editor of
tbe "Citizen" in New York, be dared to de
nounce free soilistn, and abolitionists, nod pro
claim his attachment to tbe South, and his
determination to defend Southern Institutions,
there were hat few who knew what, in a pecu
niary sense, be risked, and bnt fewer still who
knew wbat be actually sacrificed But we did
aot set out to write a biography of Mr Mitcb
ei—that we will leave to abler per*
Tbe other gentleman connected with iLP
newspaper enterprise, although we have not the
pleasure of his personal acquaintance, we yet
know by bis public reputation. Hast Tennes
see does not boast a more talented or patriotic
son. A democratic in tbe true acceptation op
tba terra, he enjoy* a popularity witn, and
pceaesK* the confidence of the democratic par
ty in that section of tbs 3tate. to so extent of
which few can justly beat. And that, as one
man, ibe democracy tl ere will rally to tbe
support of "The Soatherr Citizenwe enter
tain the fullest confidence. Georgia. too, we
tent, will give to tnis enter prize aid *o 1 cooute-
nance*-not that aid which exnauu? itself a
good wishes, but substantial aid—to wit, aid

Tbe whole South, in fact, owes this to Jobe

acter, and Southern sentiment, if there i» no,
a response to the prospectus wbi-h we this day
publish, that will make glad the heart of b’m-
who, if not by birth, “by preferrnte,” is a c'ti»
ten of the Sooth.
To tbe reader, we commend the perujal of
the Prospectus to which we have referred
jn Irish IFo man's Prayer.—The Prank-
lio Democrat states tha* widow Bcay? who
was recently tried and »enteuctd to imprison
ment in that county for -cuing liquor, mode

The " American Union,” at Gritto, uya, Id
it* last istu*. comes everybody, and hear "Oar

dower’s call upon the spirits of tbe vasty deep;
they would not come when be called them,
neither will everybody come and hear "Ben and
R*a«e." And why should they? Here not
these champions of Know Nothing!**, and
Americanism, already accomplish*} enough 1
Have they not already triumphed oh the hust
ings, orer Tivunte, and Stepbr ns, and other
intellectual giants, that as pigmies they ap-
befort the members of the dark la .tern
Why come out, then, to hoar Browa

"our Ranse "I Pray you, our neighbor of
Griffin, spare the democracy this last infliction!
Tbe election will soon be orer, and then- eve
rybody will doubt it* go and hear your distin
guished Know Nothing champions!
But, seriously, this rternal reference to "Out
Ben" and "Our Ranse" must U>distressing to
ever, well-informed member of the American
Party, while the boasts of their sticccsg
in debate, must be di?gti«tiog. It reminds ns
much of tbe In?*?! of a candidate. Sir. A., who
who said to hi? friend, Mr. B.. in speaking o?
his opponent—"C. is no match for me. I ll tell

Dutch with .hem, 1 could talk Dutch
with them, cndth're 1 had the advantage
of him. If there happened to be any French
men. 1 could talk French with them, and then
1 had tht advantage if him. But us to C. he
a clevpr, honest, sensible fellow!" Yes
sir, replies B.. "and there hr has the advantage
ef you.’'
We leave the reader to make the applica

We find the following in the Augusta
Evening Dispatch, headed as above.
•• Wchappened in at Messrs. Swan A: Co’s

just as \Ym. M. Spiller, ofTexas, was draw

P*t*T Brush, the victim uf polities, seated
open the curb, with hi* foot across the gut-
left placed hi* elbow on a stepping etonv (
and, like Juliet on the balcony, leaned hi*
head upon hia hand—a hand that would per-
hape have been the better for a covering,
thqugh none would have been rash enough
to Volunteer to be a glove upon. He was in'
a dilapidated condition; out at elbows, out
at knees, out of pocket, out of office, out of
spirits, and out in the street; an ‘out and ouG
er.’ in everv respect, and as outre a mortal
as ever the eye of man did rest upon. For
some time .Mr. Brush’s reflections had been
silent. Following Hamlet’s advice, ‘he
gave them .in understanding, but no tongue;’
ami lie relieved himself at intervals by spit
ting forlornly into the kennel. At length,
suffering his locked hands to fall between
his knees, and heaving a deep sigh, lie spoke ;
•A long time ago, my ma used tn put on
tier specks and say, Peter, my son, put net
your trust in princes; and from that day to
this, I havn’t done any thing of the kind,
because none on ’em ever wanted to borrow
nothing of me ; and I never see n prince or
a king—but one or two, and they had been
rotated out of office—to borrow nothing of
them. Princes ! pooh ! Put not your trust
in politicians—them’s my sentiments. You
might just as well try to hold a eel, for I’ve
tried both, and I know. Put not your trust
in politicians, or you’ll get a hyst.

this. Shu continued to memorinliza^Congress
for a more liberal adjustment of her - claim*

was passed.
The Attorney General rendered an able de

was about three hundred thousand dollars, and
we learn that the money was on Saturday paid.

•• The front part is arranged as a reading
room, where can be seen the papers of the
most important cities, from Boston to New
Orleans—also a ‘ l tie graphic Bulletin.'' con
taining the very latest news. The room is
covered with a handsome, floor cloth, and
lighted brilliantly, at night, with gas In
the rear of the counter ar-' the various desks
end tables of the clerks, the large vault, the
proprietor's private desk. Ac. The drawing
takes place in a large room in the rear, en
tered Irom n side door, on the ally, which
will accommodate a large number of persons.
We are glad to see the enterprise and liber
ality so conspicaou* in this large house.—
It i?, we notice, duly appreciated by our citi
zens, as well as by strangers, for it is rare
to pass the door ami find the room empty."
Augusta may well congratulate itself up
on having among their other business hous
es, rha: •:' Messrs. Swan A Go. Aside from
their Lottery which we know to be fairly
» id honorably conducted, and which is =o
deservedly popular, their Exchange business
is most extensive, reaciiiug every Stale and
city i-e Union. In fact, the enterprise
of this firm is equalled only by its liberality,
and Y-gtis; may well be proud that us head
quarters have I c-cn established there. We
do not wonder that •• it is rare to pass the
door" that opens into any one of Swan A
Co.'s rooms, and find it ‘empty—for wheth
er one enter- upon business, or to pass a
social hour, he is sure to leave satisfied that
cleverer fellows than our friends Swan and
Ennr. are hard to be found in Augusta, or
any where else on this broad Continent. In
their location at Augusta, they have our
best wishes for success.

•all they could into their own mouths, put
their arms over some, ana grab at the rest
with their paws, and sav, ‘Go away, white
man, you aint capable.’ Capable ! what's
the reason I aint capable ! I’ve got as ex
tensive a throat as any of'em, and I could
swallow the loaves and fishes without chok
ing, if each loaf was as big as a grind stone
and each fish as big as a sturgeon. Give
Peter, a chance, and leave him alone for
that. Then, another time when I called I

of spoils Whichever side gets in, shares
the spoils, don’t they ! So they first grin

spoils might spoil me. But it was no spoils
that spoilt me, and no loaf and fish that
starved me. I'm spilt because I couldn’t
get either.
