And may we not regard the above as a concession on the part of the auti- Douglas democracy T As* short while ago they were os wide asunder as the poles. Then Douglas was worse than a heretic—a traitor. Now he has “ been abused enough”—Call off the “dogs of war,” "Mr. Dpuglas’ .seevioes are need ed in tho approaching Presidential elec tion.” Verily this njodern Democracy is a jewel of the fin}tT water. Divided upon the Tariff question—^dividod upon the Internal Improvement question— divided upon the Squatter Sovereignty question—but inseparably and eternal ly united upon the v “ Public Plunder’’ question. The Democracy of Pennsyl' vania, headed by Mr. Buchanan, seises tho high protective Tariff plank, in tho platform—the Southern Democracy, led on by Mr.^Cobb, rushes to the rescue and convulsively grasps the low Tariff plank—the Northwest Democracy tugs at the Internal Improvement plank— and the strict .construction Democracy holds ion firmly to that plank, the Squatter Sovereignty Democracy jerks at that plank—and the Territorial Protection Democracy, as resolutely struggles for their plank, and they all give a long pull, a strong pull and a puli own all together. The Whole countryfstands aghast! the Nations of the earth look on in silent awe—“nature herself gives signs of woe, that all is lost."

Great is the Democracy of America 1 . ~ -• Leap Year Party. It was our pleasure on lost Friday night, to attend a most delightful party, gotten up, and entirely managed, by the young Ladies of Rome. Every thing was arranged in excellent good taste> and the young Ladies played the gal lants most admirably. They showed that they not only knew how to graco- fiilly receive tho attention of tho sterner sex, but also, that they can most charm ingly bestow them. It was a sweet season of joyous hilarity, mirth and social amusements—a genuine “feast of rea son and flow of soul.” There are many more young Gents than Ladies in the place, and if the former did not all get special invitations, we see no reason why they should be growling about it. The Ladies deserve much credit for the pleasing exhibition they made of “their rights” for tho current year. May they all live long and happily, and each be the puro center of saerod household joys. oould have made the expression a groat deal stronger if he had said “give mo Liberty, or give me heap Year." Wo only wish it wa» eighteen hundred and sixty one, we would Beo how far another Leap Year would be from catching us in this “fix” again, and as it is we have a notion to spend the balance of this one in Utah. There wo reckon the Ladies are not quite so independent, Leap Year indeed! 8®*Oor Junior lias fully verified the fable of the Fox and the Grapes. Ho worried himself almost to insanity be cause he did not get a special invitation, and now tries to console himself with tho “sour grope” conclusion. We pity him—wo really do. But since he wrote the above, and like tho Irishman, “let off tho bad” article, we discover un mistakable signs of his convalacencc, and we assure tho ladies lie will bp ill his right mind in a few days. The Effect, of SIJou.-Intercom's c, ' We clip the following from -an article in the New York Herald. It shows the power of the South. She has banging loosely and hitherto unused an arm of defence that,.!/ raised and exerted with all its sinewy strength, would demolish her enemies and.plant her own interests upon a basis of permanent prosperity. See, from the fo.llowing from tho .New York Herald, what would bo one of the first legitimate and inevitable effects of non-intercoune: “JBut there is another element of power in their,possession which can bo used with torriblo .-effect upon every Northern interest. Their present crop of cotton is estimated at four millions of bales—the greatest ever made. This staple is a necessity for tho manufactur ers of Europe and the Northern States, It is shipped to the' consuming mark ets, and drawn against through the bankers of New- York to the extent of fifty dollars per bale, or two hundred millions of -dollars annually. The equilibrium of trade has been supplied by Northern exports to Southern mark ets. This Northern-trade being dried up or even largely diminished, the South will call upon our bankers for specie in return ' for the bills on tho manufacturers of Massachusetts and Europe. Sucli .a call as this would drain every Northern bankiof its specie, and bring the whole of the immense edifice of Northern credit crumbling about our ears. This is no-.'imaginary picture.— Every merchant, every' banker, every man of sense, who contemplates calmly the changes which the present excite ment in the South is effecting in the channels of trade, ' d^iiipisliiqg their current and changiqg.t|ieif course’, seos it clearly, and oln&fly obnfetnplates how he shall provide for the exigencies which it must produce before the coming sum mer shall have passed away.” fol- Tbk Amended Resolution.—Tho lowing is the resolution agreed upon a conference of the Democratic, Anti- Lecomptqn and Southern Opposition members of the House, as a modifica tion or substitute for Mr. Clark’s origi nal resolution in reference to the Helper pamphlet and’ tthe /Speakership. Mr Clark refused t^aefcept it as a’substitute for his resolution :i Whereas the agitation of the slavery question is productive of no good, hut of evil to the whole country, and its fur ther discussion ought to’be discountenan ced by all parties, therefore, Resolved, That no man who lias re- commended, end Jtili imwt« on, and does not now disclaim, the doctrines contained in the attracts which have been read from the “Impending Crisis of the South," and who is Opt opposed to the further agitation ot tho slave- question, is fit to be Speaker ef the JIouso. Now we wisli to say a word or two on this subject. All that sounds very nice and pretty coming from our Senior, and and although he ‘insists wo must not, we will say it—Senior in year* as well as editorial experience. He can afford write in that way about Leap" Year Parties, when ho gets a special invitation go, and has an escort. But there are two sides to every quostion and we are the other side of this one, for ice did not have a “peculiar institution” in em bryo to come and hand us a sweetly scented billet doux written in tho most delicate chirography “respectfully solic iting the pleasure of our company.” It true we did get through the Post Office Bort of general invitation or permis sion or something of the kind, which seemed to say, if you are not afraid to come by yourself, you can come, or you can stay away just as you please, and if you come you can toko care of yourself, and if you stay away, nobody will miss you anyhow. We have neverdouo any thing that wo know of that makes us deserve such treatment. We have nev er been caught disturbing tho midnight sluraberB of any body’s hen roost, or in mistaking anothor man's pocket for our Wo don’t recollect over having said that women were intellectually in ferior to Bacon, or Newton, or Bona parte, or Julius Ctesar, or Pompey, or Solomon, or Brigham Young or Joe Brown, and . we aro satisfied wo have never compared them to a huge fodder stack with a little piece of ribbon or a turkey feather fluttering from the top of it. However much wo may have thought all this, we hare prudently kept to ourselves, (but we vow wo won’ do so any longer.) On the other hand ever since we had heard there was to be Leap Year Party wo had been studi ously attentive and polite to eTery one of tho “doar (bah !) creatures.” When ever wc have met them on the streets, we have invariably tippod pur hat as gracefully as we knew how and smiled a little sweeter than we ever thoughtwe could before or over can again and in one or two instances we followed them several blocks, hoping we might have an oppor tunity of picking up and returning to its/aiV owner a glove or pocket-hand kerchief she may have unintentionally dropped. And yet, after all this, not one of them offered to escort us to the Party, And we gave them a fair chance too, for we waited as patiently as Job could have done under the cir- cumstancos,’ until half-past nine o’clock that night. Then, hope and our fire go ing out about the same time, we conclu ded to follow their example and stroll up to the City Hall only to see who and how mrny were there. Wa very fool ishly "went in,” by way of testing tho matter a little further, and just as we expected, nobody came to ask us to promenade, or to insist on our aingin “Jeremiah,” or to play tho elephant, or any other animal, or to ask us how w were “enjoying the evening," or oven to inform us of the state of tho weather. One young lady (bless her sweet soul) did offor to take our hat, and it was such au extraordinary act of attention to us that wo thought sho deserved it, apd we would have given it to her, if it had not cost us five dollars and was the only one we had. Wo are satisfied from what we saw thut our Senior’s rhap sodies are all put on, for we are willing to bo qualified to the assertion that the whole time wc were there, he was 0 most neglected “wall flower.” It may bo called spite or spleen or anything else, but as for us, we consider tho whole affair a perftet humbug. We had rathor oat “sour grapes” any time than attend one for Half an hour. The man thut started the idea of giving up for twelve mpnths the dearest privileges of his sex to a parcel of unappreciative and capricious women, deserved u coat of tar and feathers, and on Friday night wo had the melancholy. satisfaction of burning the simpleton in effigy and singing “Johnny Brown” for his re quiem. So fur as any advancement of our own from a state of singlo blessed ness to 0110 of double wretchedness is con cerned, when we record in our Journal the events of 1800, wo will simply leave a blank page. We think Patrick Henry PRESENTMENTS OF THE GRAND JURY—First Week. Georgia, Kleyd County, Superior Court, Jan uary Term, 1800. u Tho Grand Jurors, chosen and sworn for the first week, of tho present Term of said court, having discharged the various duties assigned us by the Court, beg leave to make the following gener al Presentments. Wo have, by our Committee, examin ed the books of the Superior Court, and find them neatly kept. For want of-time, ■ we did not ex amine the books of tho Inferior Clerk. We find tho Ordinary, the books and papers neatly kept. Wo also find the amount of School Funds received from tho State to be $2,259 35, and from the county taxes, $1,522 90, muking in all for educational purposes $3,783 25. We have also examined tho county Treasurer’s books, and found them neat ly kept. Thos. J. Perry, former Treas urer. We find no money turned over to his successor W. J. T. Hughes. We find a ballance in lavor of Tlios. J. Per ry, former Treasurer, one hundred and eighty two dollars and twenty-seven cents. s We find in the hands of W. J. T. Hughes, Treasurer, five hundred and fifteen dollars. We find a ballance in tho hands of J W. Landrum, Tax Collector, two thous and four hundred and seventeen dollars ninety-four cents. Tho roads in the county are, as a whole in very bad condition, and great negli gence exists in regard to thorn, to which we would call the attention of the Infe rior Court. Also for said court toaid in building three bridges one across Cedar creek at Thomas Mills and Haneys mills and across Armuchee at Jones' mills. Further we would direct the Inferior Court to instruct the commissioners of the various districts to enforce the pa trol laws rigidly. Wo would mention if there are any slaves who hire their time from tho ow ners and are a nuisance to a neighbor hood by thoir intemperance, bad habits arising from such privileges they may be made an example of as it is in viola tion of law and good order. We rcommend that fifty per cent on tho State tax bo levied, or so much there of as the Inferior Court in thejr judg ment may devise for school purposes. We would further recommend unifor mity in paying Teachers in the various districts. Our examination of the reoords of crime in our midst, and our knowledge of the goiterul condition of the county, enable us to say, that, as a community our people aro lreo from many of the crimes and vices of tho day, but thut there is still much crime and violation of law and that much care is nccdod to hold it in check. We have also examined tlip Jail and found it in good condition and neatly kept, much to the credit of our Jailor. We find the Court IIouso building in many respects in bad order, muny glass broken and a very injurious leak over the Inferior Clerks room, to whloh we call the attention of the Inferior Court. Also a want of cleanliness in the upper rooms and passage of tho Court House. In taking leuve of his honor, Judge Hammond, wo beg leave to express our admiration ol the able and impartial manner in which lie lias discharged the duties of his high position, and to the Solicitor General, Col. Fielder, our thanks for his uniform courtesy to this body. ’ t JOHN P. IIOLT, Foreman. Stephen G. Wells, Miles W. Johnson, Wa. J. T. HumiES, John II. Harrison, Noah Counutt, James F.

COTTON SEED FOR SALE O F THIS now and splendid variety, origi noted and established by th© subscriber surpassing in production all uplands and “Jethro" in fineness of staple, which I gat- ton year* ago to agricultural and bommeree and sstablished for it a special demand with the manufacturers at the “ World’s Exhibi tion" in London, und lias continued to com mend the highest market value of all up lauds. In those sections of the Cotton region where “Sea Inlands" have been introduced and cultivated us the staplo crop, tho 1. X. I will supercede them when known, being as fine in staple, and seed well adapted to the operation of tho long Cotton Gins. The crop being more productive, profitable, and reliu lie every way. Thq plant differs in cliarac ter from all other varieties, being strong, vigorous and stocky—leaves deeply serrated, and present a singular lively, green glazed color—bolls long and large, frequently tw< growing oppositely at the joints, and singb ones at tho junction of tho main stalk and brunches | maturing and picking qualities unrivaled, bearing uniformly until frosts cuts off tho cron.

Having devoted many years to the success ful and practical improvement of the great staple product of the South, and testing severely the relative merits of almost every variety introduced within tho last thirty yeara, regarding also tho present active de mand and futuro promise for the finer class of upland Cotton in a greater ratio than any F eriod sinoe the creation of tho Cotton trade, do confidently recommend to the producer tho I.

Also, of the old-fashioned Mnxican-brecd known all over tho planting region au “IMit, or what is the sumo thing, tho “ Gulf Hill seed, which has proven itself in the long run the healthiest, hardiest, and most prodn ever introduced of tho short staples, but unfortunately discarded or adulterated by ad mixtures with woithlcss sub-varieties. Those seed have been preserved puro and unndul terated for thirty years, and are tho identical if the famous “Arutulo" brand, and main tained its position at the head of the Now Orleans market, always bringing more money the wholo crop round, than any other sold in that market. Any one one once familiar with the original “Mexican" Cotton, can raadily identify them as the “Simon pure."

F0R WHEAT, CORN, ROOT CROPS, COT TON, Ac. " JRIOR TO tfc* rear 1847, Superphosphate I had been made irii England, by treating burnt lHkiMH witji p»lphtir}c acid, and by tho formation of sulphate Sf fltue, thus abstract ing one atom of lime from {he bones, a solu ble phosphate had been formed. In 1847, J. Mapen made u series of experiments, thu*r found, analytically, that Peruvian Gnano- coiitaim*d tho necessary elements fof insfr- ig the growth of plants, but not in tho ut rtdutivo proportions to each other. Ho instituted a series of experiments, practical ly, by which ho proved that one hundred, pounds of burnt bones, treated with fifty-sr£ pounds of sulphuric acid, thirty-six pounds of Peruvian Gunno, twenty pounds of sul phate of ammonia, formed a rnixturo every- -ny superior to Peruvian Guano, and that would not excite the soil,, but would con tinually udd to its fertility. He had found that one barrel of blood*; fresh from the animal, mixed with a cord of organic matter, would, by fermentation, pro duce a manure equul to a cord of well rotted stable manure. He further found that sev enteen barrels of blood, when dried, would make one barrel, and that blood could bo procured at comparitivelv little cost, in cer tain sections ; that it could bo dried by cook ing and pressing ho as to produce a dry pow der, and by adding to the above named in gredients nn equal weight of dried bullock's ilood, a manure is formed one hundred pounds ' of which are epuul in power and lusting ef fect to one hundred and eighty-five pounds of tho best Peruvian Guano. ?i»ce he has oflered his invention to tho farms r» of tho country, somo fifty companies have imitated this article uiubr various names, and for the purpose of rendering it popular, have traduced Prof.* M»po* and liis article, claiming to make that of a superior, quality. Every year presents new imitators of this article, who manufacture an inferior articlo, u*ing tho mineral phospute* as a ba sis. instead of tho calcined bones of animals. Notwithstanding all Ibis, the demand for Mapes* Nitrogenised 8nj>erpUospkuto, of Lime lias doubled. Peruvian Guano contains an excessivo amount of ammonia, tho only use of which is to ronder water capable of dissolving a larger amount of the inorganic constituents of the soil, or as sometimes called to act as an excitant. The ninrkot gardeners of New Utrecht commenced sorno years ago hv using two hundred weight of gnano to the acre; they are now corn pc 11 ml to uso twelve hun dred weight of guano to prtduce the saino ofleet, ami their land is 4 evideut)y impover ished by its use, while those who lmvo used tho Nitrogenired •■uperpliospliatc of Lime, have steadily found their soils to be improv ed, and instead of roquiriug more, they re quire less fertilising material each year. Ami this i.“ particularly true of Tobacco and Cot ton lands. Among tho advantages arising from the line of Nitrogenisod Superphosphuto are the following: It carries no weed seed to tho soil; it preveuts rust, and insures the perfect ing of plants; thus, when used on Cotton, tho boll* do not fall and. hs by tho experience of Mr. Lomas, Col. Davis, and Col. Goodwin ami othwrs, it gives a greater weight per acre of cotton. For Wheat, it has steadily prov ed itsalf to be superior to tho Peruvian Gu ano; when in contact with seed, it does not destroy it as does t*e Peruvian Guano; and it Mtpplies tho deficiency of tho Phosphate of Lime un i o her ingredients, produced Id excessive reaping of graiu aud unduo pas turage. Tike reports of the farm of tho inventor, of he American Institute, and committors of other institutions, wh * have visited it, nltho* it is manured entirely with this fertiliser, prove that no inunuro has yet been used which produce* an equal amount profit.
