T HE MERITS OF THIS
Plow over others, for
thooultivationofbothC.it-
ton and C irn aro many, but? shall mention
only its leading merits : With four wings,
two small and two large, it can be converted
into Seven different Plows, all of which are
very necessary for the cultivation of dif
ferent crops. And itnother very important
feature is durability. A • Plow completed
will lost a man from two to five years, accord
ing to the soil he cultivates, and will only
cost about Three Dollars to put it up. An

The latest and'best authorities . trace
them to the Eastern confines of Syria.
Thejr are Arabs, and settled in Lebanon
and Anti-Lebanon, within the last nine
hundred years.
“Syria," says the reliable Dr. Thomp
son, who wrote from a twenty-fiVe years
residence and travel in that country,
“has always been cursed with a multi
plicity of tribes and religions, whibh
have split up the country into small
principalities and conflicting classes—
fruitful parent of civil war, anarchy and
confusion." To give some idea of, the
populations of Syria, the Doctor enum*
crates them as follows:
Moslems 800,000.
Kurds 50,000
Nusuiriyeh 150,000
No war 20,000
DruseB 100,000
Jews 25,000
Muronites 200,000
Greeks 16,000
Armenians 35,000
Papal Ofishoots 80,000

J.B. MURPHY
RESIDENT DENTIST,
R ESPECTFULLY informs his friends, and
the publio generally, that ho continues
the practice of DENT1STR T in ail its branch
es, und lias fitted up an office, over the store
of McGuiro A Pinson, where ho is prepared
to uxocute all operations appertaining to Den
tistry, in the most approved manner.
He would also call the particular attention
of tbose in want of Artificial Work, to his su-
t orior stylo of tooth, sot on gold plate; for
canty, strength and life-like nppeacance,
they are not surpassed. As an impression has
been made that my prices for dental opora
tions aro higher than the usual run of Den
tists, I beg leave to say thatthoy are the same
as charged by Dentists at Augusta, Macon
and Snvnnnah. For Artificial Work myohar
ges are as follows:
Entire Sots Upper and Lower from $100 to $251
Half Sots, Upper or Lower, from 50 to 160
Temporary Sots, Upper and Lower, 25 eaoh.
Partial Sots in proportion to the above.
As Pam well posted in all the late improve
ments of the day, I feel confident that I can
meet tho wants of alt who mny noed the ser
vices of a Dentist, and if references are want
ed; as to their utility in answering tho purpo
ses of nature, I can givo them in abundance,
from those who have tested my skill, for the
last fourteen yours, in this, and adjoining
States,

The Moslems are the ruling race over
all the country, except in Lebanon, and'
they are divided into two sects, the Sun
nites and the Slites. The total pop
ulation is thus estimated at 1,610,-
000, exclusive, however, of the nom
adic Arabs whose number is set down
by the best authorities at half a mil
lion.
The Lebanon region contains 400,000
inhabitants, living in some 6000 _ towns,
villages, and hamlets'. Zahleh, just de-.
strayed, was the largest town, and con-
tainedill.OOO people. The other towns
which have fallen before the sword of
the Druses, are Deir el Kumar, 7,000 ;
Hasbeija, 6,000; and Itashairu, 2,600;
The entire population live in townsand
villages, and go out in [.he fields to cul
tivate thfeqa.
This is no homogeneous community
of peoples in Syria, Eveiy tribe lives
apart, and hates each other with a hear
ty hate. \ The two Moslem sects excom
municate euch other, hate the Diusesand
all these three detest the Nusairiyeh.—
The Maronites love nobody, and nobody
loves them. The Greeks despise the
Catholics, and all sects look down with
contempt on the Jews.
Except the Jews and the Bedowin
Arabs, no tribe can trace back its'origin
to any ancient race. The Moslems are
a mixed race, dorived f«om the ’people
-of-fhe Greek empire: at-the time-of the
crusades. .In the nominally Christian
seots, there is the same blending of ra
ces, und.a large infusion of European
blood, .during the time of. the Crusades.
Dr. Thompson thinks that the. ;Maro-
nites are the descendants of the ancient
Syrians, but the Nusairiyeh say they
are the “miserable debris'of the accus
ed Canaanitcs.” But this theory does
'not comport with that of Dr. W, Ba
con Stephens, of Georgia, for they
are not black !*■ -
The Metewelies, a class of dirty
Arabs, who joined the Druses in their
late crusade against the Christians, are
very much like the Jews, and claim .to
have come from Persia. There is" a
large infusion of Egyptian blood in the
Moslems trom Carmel southward. ..Dr,
Thompson thinks that their peculiari
ties are to be - traced back to the old
Philistines, who, according to his theo
ry, came from Egypt, and not from
Cyprus, os is commonly thought. He
finds traces in Lebanon of the original
Phoenicians.
In fine, the people of Syria answer
completely to the prophecies respecting
them—they are “a people divided,
metea-but'and trodtfetidhmi.” •
These facts will explain the ferooity
of the Druses and the sympathy of the
Moslems with them. Ana their anti
pathy to all other races will continue,
so long us Moslem authority continues
in that ill fated land... When Mehamit
Ali declared himself independent of
the Porte, and subjugated Syria to his
yoke, all was peace in that land; and
had ho been left in possession by the
European powers, his dynasty would -
have made a homogenous people out of
those divided tribes, long ere this. It
is to be hoped that France and England
will make haste to bring light out of
the present darkness. Their join* 1

Bbocouau and Dallas.—The N. Y.
Herald of Thursday, in an elaborate ar
ticle, very properly commenting bn
the impertinence or Lord-Brougham to
the American Minister in England, at a
session of the Statistical Congress, takes
ocoasion to critieise very I severely .the
conduct of. Mr. Dallas, 'and demands
his immediate recall* Vituperation is
so much-tlie order of the day in .New
York, and when nn “Alderman Boole"
oalls “a Councilman Van ■Tine” a thief,
it is considered so neat, appropriate and
telling a thing to call “Boole", a, liar
and scoundrel, that any other course of
action appears tame and inappropriate.
The Herald which is ..thp private organ
of Mr. Buohonan, will, doubtless,-de
mand a similar course of conduct fi-om
him, and we shall probably have in »
few days an answer-to the very-elegant
and gentle, manly epistle of George N.
Sanders. We trust that ibis will con
tain all the adjective^
that we may know precisely what is
expected of an . American Minister.un-
,der the circumstances. * '
Mr. Dallas was not a member of the
Statistical Congress, ahd had, therefor,
no right to speak at All; he therefor
treated the remark with the silent con
tempt whioh it deserved. Had hei {de
claimed from the gallery a whole col
