T HE MERITS OF THIS
Plow over others, for
the eulti ration of both Cot-
ton and Corn aro many, bnt I shall mention
only its leading merits: With four wings,
two small and two largo, it can be oonverted
tato Seven different Plows, all of which are
very necessary for Hie cultivation of dif
ferent crops. And another 1 very important
feature is durability. A Plow completed
will Inst a man from two to five years, accord
ing to the soil he cultivates, and will only
cost nbout Three Dollars to put it up. An
Agency 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 public generally, that he continue*
the practice of DENT1STR T In all Us branch
es, and has fitted Up an office, over the store
of McGuire * Pinson, where ho is prepared
to execute all operations appertaining to Den
tistry, in the most approved, manner. -
He would atm call the particular attention
of those in want of Artificial Work, to his su
perior style of teeth, set on gold plate; for
beauty, strength and life-like appcaeance,
they are not surpassed. As un impression has
bewrmade'that my prides lor dehtal opera
tions are higher than the usual run of Drn-
tists, I beg leave to say that they are the same
aa charged by Dentists at Apgnsta, Macon
and Savatinan. For Artificial Work mychar-
ges are as follows:
Entire Sots TJpper and Lower from $100 to $251.
Half Sets, Upper or Lower, from 50 to ISO
Temporary Sols, Upper and Lower, 25 each
Partial Sots in proportion to the above.
As I am well posted in all the late improve
monts of tho day, I feel confident that I can
meet the wants of ail who may need the ser
vices of a Dentist, and if references are want
ed; as to t'aeir utility in answering the purpo.
ses of nature, I can glve them.ln abuudnnco,
from those wito : hava tasted my skill, for the

The Court hiss decided what are the^toh^ll^o^ed for sale at too
constitutional rights of the sl*ve-holder^t^««S^S£^rite^SS<i
in the Territories, vis, that theoonstitu-l7‘ ! ,j7/' i f*. : 7
.tion recognises slaves as property; that -
the slave owner has an equal right with
other citisens to settle id-tho common
Territories, with his slaves, and that he
is there justly entitled’to protection id
this property as much as in any other.
And thnt'neither congress*, nor 0 Terri
torial Legislature can Impair this
right, and moreover, it is the duty of
the Government to protect the citizen
in those rights. This .is briefly the doo-
trine of the Dred Scott decision.
Is not this enough, so faros the expo
sition of the Constitution id oonoerned,
to satisfied every Southern man t Then
we take the constitution as our plat
form. And we think it strange that
ar.y man can have the temerity for a
moment to believe, that any other con
struction than the above, was intended
when the “Constitution, the Union,
and the enforcement of the laws," was
laid down as the platform of the-Union
party.
Does any sane man believe that any
other construction was intended t Or
does ho believe it was intended’ to go
before the country as a platform, With a
double meaning f And siuoe the de-
cition of the Supreme Court, the South
ern people are the last, who ought to
seek to make the contest upon anj> oth- f
%r platform. An abolitionist, fteesoHer,
oP-Squatter Sovereign, might with some
show of plausibility, object to fKe vot
ing for a man, or with a party, upon
such a platform. But a Southern sum,
never.
Let us turn now for a moment to the
platform of the Rreokiuridge party-
We S*y tb* Breckinridge party, for we
suppose it yat a, mooted , question
whether they, are the-Demporatfc party,
the , Disunion psrty.or, the: Southern
