T HE MERITS OF THIS
Plow over others, for
tho cultivation of both Cot
ton and Corn are many, but
only its leading merits: With four Wings,
two small and two large, it can be converted
tnto Seven different Plows, all of which are
very necessary for tho cultivation of dif
ferent crops. And another very important
feature is durability. A Plow completed
will lost a man from two to five years, accord
ing to tho soil he cultivates, and will only
cost about Three Dollars to put it up. An
Agoncy will soon be established in Rome,
and then planters will be invited to call and
see for themselves. Address,

RESIDENT DENTIST,
R ESPECTFULLY informs his friends, and
tLe pubiio generally, that ho continues
the prncticeof DENT1STR Y in all its branch-
os, nnd has fitted up an offico, over the store
of McGuire & Pinson, whore ho is prepared
to execute ail operations appertaining to Den
tistry, in tho most approved manner.
He would also call the particular attention
of those in want of Artificial Work, to his su-
>erior style of tooth, sot on gold plate ; for
jeautv, strength and life-like appeaoanco,
they are not surpassed. As an impression has
boon made that my prices for dontal opera
tions are higher than the usual run of Drn-
tists, I bog leave to say that they are thosamo
as charged by Dmtista at Augusta, Macon
and Savannah. Fur Artificial Work mychar-
ges are as follows
Entire Sets Upper and Lower from$100 to $25t
Half Sets, Upper or Lower, from 50 to 160
Temporary Sots, Uppor and Lower, 25 each.
Partial Sots in proportion to the above.
As I am wall posted in all tho late improve
ments of tho day, I fool confident that r oan
meet tho wants of all who may need tho ser
vices of a Dentist, and if references are wont
ed; as to their utility in answering the purpo
ses of nature, I can give thorn in abundance,

Archbishop Hughes among the Ladies
—A Pructical Speech.
Bishop Hughes distributed tho pre
miums at the Mount St. Vincent Acad,
emy of the Visitation, .near New York
on .Tuesday last, and at the conclusion
of tho exercises, addressed the; young
ladies as follows: '
“My Dear Children and Young La
dies:—I have witnessed many anniver
saries in which you received the testi
monials of merit to wbioh you were en
titled, but I do hot remember any occa
sion whioh excelled the exercises of to
day. But I will not enlarge upon this)
there are probably a great many in this,
audience better able to appreciate the
merits of your performance than I am.
We have the honor of having many dis
tinguished persons present with us to
day—not Btrangers, but friends. Only
one thing has troubled us during thq
exercises—your speeches made us sod—
but this was fo be expected from the na
ture of the occasion, when friends - and
schoolmates were about to take leave of
each other. But the chief thing that
has troubled me isthedilemmain which
one of the speakers placed the Sisters
of Charity, by quoting a remark from
me. True it is that they have, none to
overlook them upon this hallowed
5 round but angels; unless, indeed,' our
erBey friends on the other side of the
river may look down upon them,—
[Laughter.] But the dilemma in which
they are placed is thiB; if tho term an
gel can be applied to those good spirits
that look down on the Sisters from
above, why cannot the aame term be'
applied to the young ladies I see before
me? Here, then, are the Sisters be
tween two sets of angels; the one over
looking them from above, and the other
looking up'to them for guidance and
instruction. [Laughter.] Isn’t that a
dangerous position to place the Sisters
in ? May not this double compliment
from earth and Heaven make them
vain ? [Renewed laughter in which the
Sisters heartily joined.]
But to return ; although it is of-the
utmost importance, young ladies, that
you should have a good education,
should be accomplished, cultivated,
graceful and refined, yet there are other
things that cannot be lost sight of. Be;
fore another year rolls around I propose
to arrange with the Sisters for a new
branch of Btudy in the Academy. That
branoh of stuiy is what the French call
the science of cuisine. It is the acienoe
of keeping house, and that we all know
commences with the kitchen. Every
young lady, I don’t care if she be a.
queen’s daughter, ought to understand
that department of life. Even though
she may not have to practice it, though
she may be able to hire her eook, yet
she should understand it herself, fbr it
may happen some duy that the cook
will dismiss her. [Great Laughter.]
What a predicament she would he in
then. Well, what I was going to saj
was that the Sisters should arrange it
so that all the girl? over thirteen years
of age should be. Enabled to ' spend' a
portion of thb time in the kitchen,-
and become acquainted with cooking
aud housekeeping* Here will be a new
bureau of education. [Laughter.] We
shall then have the. theory and some
practice too. .
“Another point and I will close. At
the ei>d of another year,.if living, „and
my purse is long enough, 1 aip going to
give a gold medal of not less than $50'
in value, to the young lady who will
write the best essay, not exceeding five
pages in length, upon this great heto sci
ence that I have spoken of.” [Laughter
and applause.]
Second Choice ot all Parties
The “Louisville Journal” of recent
date says:
It is an advantage to our candidates,
Bell and Everett, and certainly .a most
important one, that they are, to all prac
tical purposes, the second choice ot. all
other parties. The fact, we believe,. is
unquestionable.
No one can doubt that the friends of
Douglas and . Johnson would, under
existing circumstances, rather see Bell-
and Everett elected than cither Breck
inridge and Lane or Lincoln and Ham
lin. Nor can any one doubt that the
friends of Lincoln and Hamlin would
prefer Bell and Everett to either Breok-
lnridge and Lane or Douglas and Jo]
The’Speech 'of the Season.
The Memphis Enfiinr ] panes Hie
following high encomium upon the re
cent speech of Mr. Hill, at Macon,
which; our reader will recollect,, we
characterised as the gretest political
effort of the times: ' , • : ,
Wo invite especial attention to the
speech of Mr. B. H. Hill, of Georgia,
whioh appeared in our daily issue of
yesterday morning, and will be found
in our tri-weekly columns of to-day.—
Whether we regard the value of its
facts, the clearness and force with which-
it sets them forth the cohclusivemress oi.
its argument, or all combined, we do
not lresitate to express the opinion that
without disparagement to others, it has
not yet been, .and-willjnot be, equalled,
much less, surpassed by any speeoh of
the canvass. It seems to ps to -embrace
every essential* point and principle
now in issue between the' several par
ties, which, fpr weal or woe to our com
mon country, has to be decided by the
ue*t Presiaattlal election. And the
vital ehoraoter of th'e issue thus made
up, is presented a manner so plain,
simple'apd direct, that no one who-can;
fial to understand it, while the course
of duty is urged upon the conscience
and common sense of every patriot with
a force of argument which we hoid to
be absolutely irresistible. Let _ every.
Constitutional Union man read it, ana
find there, as hp will, the concentrated
strength of every position' of his party,
os : well as the substance of every rea
son whioh maybe needed to susfgin |t. :
Lot evpry Douglas, Breokinridge and
Lincoln, man read it. and answer
he can. . . ^

.Bovs Swearing.-*—'.We 1 passed a he'^y
of littlfi hoys on oho of our streets yes
terday and heard some of them swear
ing like inebriates. It is dreadful to
aear cursing arid swearing from the 1

steeped ini. profligacy, hut there Ib-a
painful want of nature, corrupt and
>ad’as it is, in such a disgusting demon-
fresh from tho*creative hand of tlieir

exhibition by allowing.their children to :
run at large,- into bad company, are not;
only responsible [or the yiolated decen
cy of tho community, but will bo held
auswerable to a higher power, and their
iunishment will be inflicted' in the ffi
gure worthlessness and degradation; of-
their sons, i The Good Book tells us
that, “those who sow to the wind shall
read to thewhirlwind,” and on this au
thority we cannot help thinking that
some, parents in. this city are sure to be
visited with a desolating hurricane of;
sorrow in the future lives of their off
spring. No sensible , being-can deny
that permitting young and impressible
boys, to roam about tho] streets,; with
every temptation to vice and;dissipa-
tipn, is but a poor way to .give them »

As far as the friends of Breckinridge
and Lane, it is true that their leaders,
their master spirits, next to the success
of their own tioket. might secretly d-
sire the success of Lincoln and Hamli
from the belief that it would enal
them to bring about a dissolution of thi,
Union ; but they do not dare, and thfiy
would, under no circumstances date - to
avow this, and there cap be no .shad
