THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 28.
FOR GOVERNOR,
HON. HERSCHEL V. JOHNSON.
Os Baldwin County.
Sectional Opposition to the Administration.
When the national parties of this country had
in both Conventions adopted the Compromise
Measures as a final settlement of the slavery
question —and pledged that the only remaining
act, in this great scheme ot adjustment between
the North and the South, which was executory
in its character, viz: the fugitive slave law,
should be henceforth faithfully carried out, and
that all agitation, both in and out of Congress
should cease—it was supposed, nay, confidently
believed, that an end to disturbance had been
effected. It was a matter of rejoicing through
out the length and breadth of this land—and
only those who at heart were traitors to the
man as centered in the permanency of
this great confederacy, hung their heads at this
memorable triumph of patriotism. The cloud
which had hung over us and caused the
strongest spirit to grow sad with dispair, was
driven away —and the glorious light of peace,
beamed forth, and presented to the world a na
tion as happy, united and content as it was in
the first days of its creation.
Such were the flattering prospects for the re
turn of good feeling and harmony between every
section of the country, on a firm and stable foun
dation, when Gen. Pierce received for Presi
dent of these United States the votes, of all ex
cept four, in the Union. Thus elected to fill the
highest office in the gilt of the country at a pecu
liarly interesting period in its history—with the
unbounded confidence of the people in him as
being purely national in his sentiments, well
tried and faithful to the Constitution and loyal
to the Union—this distinguished functionary
had scarcely taken the oath office when he be
holds. factions and cliques rising up here and
there to oppose him, at the very outset of his
administration. Before the appointed time had
arrived when he should present to the country,
through Congress his views of such measures
ant policy as should be adopted and carried out,
he finds himself attacked by a party of disap
pointed and fussy out-siders whose means of ex
istence is opposition to any thing and every
thing for no particular reason, but on general
principles of disaffection inherent in their na
ture. To them Peace—the beauty and life of
society—the soul and energy of government, has
no charms, and forthwith they make an on
slaught.
: In order to be at their work of fault-finding,
they begin with his appointments. Basing their
objections to his course in this respect, on
strictly sectional issues, and prevented by pre
judice from taking an enlarged and liberal view
of what are the duties and obligations of the
President to the whole country, they hope, by a
general systematic movement of their forces
everywhere on the same line of attack, to
alarm the South into the belief that their prop
erty is endangered by certain appointments at
the North —and that the Union is inevitably
bound to be dissolved sooner or later, in conse
quence of some he has made at the South.
Either unwilling or unable flb comprehend the
terms and conditions on which the question of
slavery and the issues incident to it, w r ere fully
and finally settled in convention at Baltimore,
by the representatives of the Democratic party
ftom every portion of the country, they continue
their unjust and unfounded charges of section
alism and ultraism against the Executive, utter
ly opposed to the broad, National and Conser
vative principles of the platform on which he
was elected, and by which he has so solemnly
pledged his honor that the affairs of the nation
should be administered.
General Pierce was not placed at the head of
this government to use the patronage of his of
fice as the means of producing schisms and cre
ating hot blood among the people. Rather did the
spirit and letter of that great treaty of peace be
tween the two hitherto hostile and embittered
sections of the Union demand of him as a patriot,
as an American, knowing no North, no East, no
South no West, a strict construction of it. He was
called on to see that henceforth these articles of
pacification should be carried out. To effect
this end, he had no right to go behind this settle
ment—the sincerity and good faith of each party
in signing it—hereafter to observe its require
ments, he had no right to question. This in
strument of adjustment was not intended to dis-
qualify on account of past differences and opinions
Up but it was to be the test and standard by which
every man’s future fidelity to the constitution
and the government were to be tried. It was to
nry in oblivion, if possible, past difficulties and
unfriendly feeling, and to be regarded as a com
mon point whence every one, no matter how.
much estranged before, might commence together
in harmony and peace the service of the country.
Here then is the record by which he is to be
judged in reference to his appointments.—
Let those who have taken umbrage at them
produce the proof, that he has violated the
terms on which he obtained the suffrages of the
people, and that he is no longer worthy of their
confidence. This is a grave charge—and if it
can be established, the evidence to do it, is at
hand. Specify the name of any man who holds
office under Gen. Pierce, at the North, who re
fuses to acquiesce in the Compromise Measures as
a fixed setlement of the slavery question—who
is not willing to cease its agitation in and out of
Congress—and who will fail whenever required
to eKecute the fugitive slave law—or, on the
other hand, the name of another at the South,
who does not recognize these obligations and
moreover—that the peace of the country is not
to be disturbed hereafter, by the useless discus
cussion of secession, or any other abstract doc
trine involving the Union of these States, and
if they are not discharged, then will there be
just ground of complaint. Until then, and not till
then, will the people forsake one to whom they
can with so much safety, commit the hap
piness and prosperity of our whole country
at home, and its honor abroad.
We caution politicians how they stir up op
position to Gen. Pierce, and say to the people
of the South, that if they are dissatisfied with
him, they need not look again to the North for a
President.

Mr. Editor .-—There is one question now agi
tated before the people which, in all probability,
will be one of the great questions before the
next Legislature of Georgia, to-wit: The repeal
or modification of our present Tax Law. That
taxing the people, is one of the necessary inci
dents to a government, no one will deny : nor
will any one for a moment contend, that any
system of taxation, which is manifestly and
grossly unequal and unjust, is a proper principle.
Then, the question is not whether the people
should be taxed, nor what amount of tax they
should pay: but what system of taxation will
cause the burthen to rest equally upon all —the
rich and the poor. I take it for granted that this
will be the object of the Legislature, to make
the tax bear equally on all. Then what system
will effect this? I answer, the ad-valorem Not
the present miss-called ad-valorem—that system
which makes so many exemptions, and at the
same time laying specific taxes ; but ad-valorem
in its true and literal meaning—that system
Vhieh lays hold of the value of the whole
property in the State, and nothing but the pro
perty ; in other words, that takes a certain per
cent, on the whole of what a man is worth.
The present system exempts in the first place,
three hundred dollars for furniture; and, in the
second place, two hundred dollars worth of pro
perty, money, notes or accounts, making in all,
five hundred dollars exempt; and at the very
1 lowest calculation one-fifth of the people of
Georgia are exempt from paying tax, by that
act. It is true, that the tax on five hundred dol
lars is not much; it is a very small sum, but it is
so much the easier paid, and when that small
sum is paid by ten, fifteen, or twenty thousand
persons, it makes a considerable sum, and that
sum deducted from the tax of those who have
paid such an oppressive tax since the alteration
ot our tax law, would fetch their tax w’ithin the
bounds of reason.
And why should not the man who is worth
but five hundred dollars, pay something to the
government for protection ? Cannot a man
who is worth but five, or even one hundred dol
lars, pay a small per cent oh that sum, as easy
as another can pay the same per cent, on ten
thousand dollars ? Certainly: and with more
ease; for a person with a small capital, generally
realizes a large per cent, income than one whose
capital is larger.
But 1 see that some are advocating a still
larger exemption. The Columbus Corner Stone
recommends an exemption of one thousand dol
lars in the first place, and then, a graduated tax,
the per cent, to increase aa the value of the pro
perty increases. But that system would not be
equal, even among the tax-payers, for a man
paying on two thousand dollars would pay more
than twice the amount that the man would,
who paid on one thousand : and besides that, it
would exempt from taxation, at the least calcu
lation, one-half the citizens, and consequently
the whole burthen ot supporting the government
would devolve upon a few.
Again, I think all specific taxes ought to be
abolished except that on free persons of color.—
It is right that they should be taxed, and I know
of no method more practicable than the present;
but when practitioners of Law and Physic, Den
tists, and Daguerrean Artists perform as many
duties, civil and military, and pay the same per
cent, on all the property they have, why should
they pay lor their profession,while the Mechanic,
the Blacksmith, the Merchant and others go
free? This is unfair,unjust and anti-ad-valorem.
Why should the young Lawyer or Doctor be
compelled to pay from eight to ten dollars a
year, even before he draws the first writ or
visits the first patient? Many a voung man
has, without means, after several years study
and labor, succeeded in obtaining a profession
and when he has perhaps not a dime in his
pocket, is stopped by the State, from entering
upon the duties of his profession till he pays the
tax above mentioned; while his brother has
pursued a different calling, and instead of spend
ing his time and money in preparing for future
usefulness has entered immediately into business,
and has earned, say five hundred dollars ; and he
continues his business without paying one cent
of tax. How unjust! You make the one who
has nothing but his profession pay ten dollars,
and his brother, who is worth five hundred dol
lars, goes free. Where is the justice ?
My idea is this, let the Legislature ascertain
the value of the property in the State, and lay
such a per cent, on that sum, as will be necessary
together with the poll, and tax on free negroes,
to support the government. Then, if a man has
nothing, he is to be pitied ; if he has & little, he
will pay but little ; and if he has more, he can
easily pay more. If there is any system better
than that, what is it ? Equality.

Mr. Editor :—The game here is getting inter
esting, and in accordance with my promise, to
keep you posted, if it was worth the candle, I
again drop you a line. Almost every week we
hear it'rumoiedjthat another “Richmond is. in the
field,” and very soon again the old Dame denies
the report. The very last dodge seems to be, to
get a sort of a “ betweenity”—a sort of “bil an’,
7 af, 77 thinking no doubt, that by the mixture
something may be done for the salvation of the
country. We rather think a “ betweenity,” even
on the Jenkins Platform (?) will hardly take)
tho 7 we dont pretend to know the certainty of
any human calculations ! We may have singu
lar notions of propriety, but we think it best
that there be no stalking-horses in this cam
paign ! But that if a candidate is wet, then let
him be wet; if he is dry, let him go it dry !
The people are to be the judges! The “ Dryites”
here have taken considerable courage since we
last wrote, as they think (?) they are receiving
a good deal of “ aid and comfort,” from men of
influence in the community, who never fail to
take a little “ fourth proof 17 at home and abroad
too, “ for their stomach’s sake, and often infirmi
ties, 77 for which they are able to pay five, ten or
twenty dollar? per gallon for the article ! This
we call preaching Temperance ®ut of one cor
ner of the mouth, and pouring brandy in at the
other ! The “ Wetites, 77 seem to take it easy
enough, making no grand demonstrations, or
blowing for the boys,” for they seem to be
satisfied that when the tug of war comes, the
boys will be on hand ! We 7 1l all know by
“ waitir, g for the wa §on-” The first, and only
as yet,“ gathering,” is advertised by the “Dry
ites” to come off on the 30th inst. ' We hope to
be“ thar,” and if “things happen as things

Cheering Prospects. —We can now assure
our readers, (says the Milledgeville Federal
Union, of 26th inst.) that the news we have re
ceived within a few days from almost every
part of the State, is of the most satisfactory
kind. In the Ist Dist. the Holmesville Conven
tion recommends the Democrats to support Col.
Seward. This, we think, will insure his elec
tion against any man the Whigs can bring into
the field. In every county but one in the 2nd
Dist. we hear that our friends are united. In
the 4th Dist. Col. Murphy has withdrawn and
left the Whigs to their own resources. In the
•th Dist. Gen. Wofford and Judge Hillyer give <
Judge Johnson a cordial support. It is believed
by good Judges that Johnson's majority in the
6th Dist. will be 3000. The only part of the
State where any divisions exist in the Demo
cratic party that are calculated to do any harm,
is in the sth Dist. and we are in hopes that in
that Dist. their divisions will soon be healed
and the whole united Democratic host will
march forward “ fair as the Moon, clear as the
Sun, and terrible as an army with banners.”

Crawling through an Auger Hole.
Every one who has read the Whig papers in
Georgia this summer, must have noticed a piti
ful trick by which several of them attempted to
impose upon their readers and the public gene
rally. They have evidently endeavored to create
the impression that the Courier published at
Rome, and the Constitutional Union published
at Marietta, were two Democratic Papers , that
had refused to support the Democratic nominees,
and gone over to the support of Jenkins and
whiggery. Httndreds in Georgia that were un
acquainted with the facts were imposed upon
by this contemptible trick, and newspapers in
other States have been deceived, and have pub
lished as a fact, that two Democratic papers in
Georgia had refused to support the Democratic
Candidates. This shallow device of the enemy
was exposed by ourselves and several of our
Democratic Contemporaries. We proved that
the two papers mentioned had never been Dem
ocratic but violent Whig papers; that the Dem
ocats had never expected any help from them,
and that in supporting the whig nominees they
had only acted in their vocation. The Chroni
cle & Sentinel is very much nettled at being
canght in such a mean trick and endeavors to get
out by saying, w We stated distinctly that the
Editor of these papers have always been consis
tent Democrats. This we repeat without the
fear of contradiction from any source.” This is
a very poor come off, or come out rather. We
cannot now lay our hands upon that number of
the Chronicle & Sentinel which contains the
announcement of those two important allies to
Whiggery. We will for the present let the
Organ of Algerine Whiggery have the full ben
efit of his explanation. Did he make such a
great fuss over two individuals ? Did he think
it worth publishing to the world that two men
whom nobody knew, would support Mr. Jen
kins ! Did he wish to be so understood ? If we
put such a construction upon his first article, we
must defend his veracity at the expense of his
intellect. But this explanation of the Chronicle
& Sentinel bears the impress of folly and self
contradiction upon its face. Would men who
“ have always been consistent Democrats, take
charge of two violent Whig papers that depend
ed upon Whig patronage for support? Would
consistent Democrats support every Whig Candi
date and oppose every Democrat in the field ?
This surely must be a new species of Democrats
known only to the microscopic Editor of the
Chronicle & Sentinel, who, when he is cornered,
can creep out of a smaller rat hole than any
other man of his proportions in Georgia.—Mil

Fashions for July.
Morning caps are very small,with long floating
strings ; they are made ot embroidered muslin
and narrow Valenciennes, of plain net inser
tions. The new comb, with double galerie, just
invented, may be worn under these caps, as well
as with all styles of coiffure, and is particularly
pretty for evening dress, with a wreath of flow
ers or a bouquet of roses. Evening dresses, for
undress parties, are composed of white muslin,
three skirts trimmed with Mechin lace, of tar
latane trimmed with fringe, or taffetas skirts
may be worn with muslin bodies.
Walking or riding dresses are high to the
throat when made of taffetas. Printed muslin,
barges, and taffetas d’ltalie skirts are worn with
canezous of muslin, embroidered in small dots;
a taffetas shawl, edged round with stamped vel
vet and Chantilly lace, clear muslin scarf, or
barege scarf with fringe, or an echarpemantelet
of taffetas, with a ruch a la vielle, upon the
ground ofblack tulle. Leghon bonnet, trimmed
w«th plaid ribbon, embroidered with fruit and
flowers, or fancy straw, trimmed with ribbon
and straw flowers.
The glaces silks have given place to the taffe
tas gorge de pigeon, which is always beautifnl for
demi toilette. Nothing can be prettier than a
robe formed of one of these patterned taffetas,
tn’mmed with four flounces, on the edges of
which is sewn an amaranth of green velvet;
the body is flat, open en coeur allonge ; chemis
ette a la chevaliere of muslin, in small tucks
between insertions of embroidery. Open work
ed straw bonnet, trimmed with small bunches of
bows ; mancinis of violets and daises.
English green is sUll in fashion. A taffetas
robr of this shade is distingue. The number of
flounces is left to the tsste of the wearer; five
'or seven are mostly worn, and usually in pat
tei ,s of colored wreaths, or bunches of flowers
in scollops. China crape shawl; bonnet of rice
straw, and bouillonnes of crape, with Brussels
lace fall; a cactus at one side completes this
elesant toilette.
Velvet being more than ever in vogue as
trimming,we find it applied to mantilles, which
increases their beauty and value. The stamped
velvets are brought to great perfection, and har
monise well with all descriptions of embroide
ries; foliage en relief are fastened on the ground
work with chainstitch, and are beautiful orna
ments both for robes and manteaux.
Summe- mantelets are small; many are made
of embroidered muslin. Tarlatane scarfs are
worn over colored crape lisse, with a wreath
embroidered round the edges, and the ends trim
med with a deep fringe. These scarfs are very
, handsome, and beautifully light.
An ingenious novelty has just appeared : the
scarf with a double face, composed of two tarla
tanes of deep colors, so blended as to produce a
most surprising effect, for example, scarlet and
blue, gieen and pink, white and maize,or gold
color. They can be worn either side outwards,
thus forming two toilettes,
i Mantilles of tulle are trimmed with rows of
lace, separated by very narrow ruches of ribbon
A light and fanciful as well as pretty mantille
is made of tarlatane, trimmed with deep guipure,
with a ruche of gauze guipure ribbon, fixed at
the waist by a bow of gauze ribbon with long
ends. This worn over a pink or blue taffetas
robe, has a most becoming appearance.
Mantilles to match the robes are much worn
in the country by quiet young ladies ; they are
trimmed with flounces to match the skirt.
Fancy straw is much used both for bonnets and
trimmings. Rosettes of narrow-pattern straw
are mixed with ribbons, both for outside and in
side ornaments, of these light and graceful bon
nets.
Capotes are often composed of a mixture of
straw and taffetas or tulle. Taffetas bonnets are
also worked with an embroidery of straw in
wreaths or detached flowers. The curtains are
half blonde and half taffetas, embroidered with
straw. The flowers are white, mixed with buds
of satin straw, which have a very pretty effect.
Some capotes are made with a taffetas crown
and straw front, in bands of open and flat point
ed straw. A double row of blonde trims the
inside. The curtain is of teffetas, blonde and
straw. A white feather tipped with straw or
naments is placed on the right side of the bon
net ; on the left is a bow of ribbon. The in
side trimming is a mixture, violet crape, corn,
and straw flowers.
Another capote is of white ribbon, with an
open edge of yellow and violet gauze ; two rows
of ribbon from the front. A bouquet of heartease
in velvet, and straw flowers, with foliage in
crape of different shades, ornaments the right
side, and a bow of ribbon the left. Flowers in
side to match.
Young ladies’ bonnets are mostly composed of
white taffetas ; the crowns are plated en coquille,
with a ruche of pink taffetas across the head and
the edge of the front, w’hich is made of a stripe
of taffetas and one of plaited crape lisse ; bun
ches of long ends of narrow white ribbon at
each ear, and small flowers inside.
Black lace bonnets continue to be worn, and
are much trimmed with flowers and light colored
ancy ribbons ; the crowns are loose, and floating
m the fanchon style.— Liverpool Times.

Hay —Gutting and Curing.
The hay-makers are at work and the summer
air is full of the fragrance of the new-mown
grass. The farmers are early and late afield,
and the season is one of bustling activity to theory
and their wives and children. O, there is work
to do in the country about these days—days when
the denizens of the city think most of their
country relatives, and oftenest go out among
them. Let them not forget how busy their
farming friends must be.
In what stage of the growth of grass it shall
be cut, and the manner in which it shall be cured,
are questions of considerable importance to the
farmer, though as yet no decisions in which all
acquiesce, have made any one practice the uni
form and general one. Some cut in the season
of flowering, before the blossoms have fallen,
others not until the seed has formed, and others
defer the operation until it is fully ripe. Each
class bring arguments to sustain their plan of
procedure, as also is the case in relation to seve
ral modes of curing. We will state now, some
facts relative to both subjects—drawn from chem
istry and practical analogy—but bearing more
particularly in favor of early cutting and shade
curing, which is conceded, by many of our best
farmers, to secure the greatest nutrative value of
the hay.
Chemistry shows us that all plants contain
the largest amount of matter soluble in water, at
the period of flowering, and that the sugar and
gluten of the grass, and a few other soluble in
gredients, constitute its chief value as the food
for animals. These rapidly diminish as the seed
forms, changing into insoluble woody fibre, and
the hay which should, as far as may be, resemble
grass in its most perfect state, is worth much
less if not made until after that period. There
are but few exceptions to this rule, but we be
lieve the Kentucky blue grass, the June grass,
and some others which furnish but a light amount
of stem, and are most valuable from their leaves
which continue growing through the summer,
may stand far past the flowering age beneficially.
It has been supposed, because ripe hay yielded
the greatest amount of extract when boiled, that
therefore it must contain most nutriment, but is
now found that the boiling veryhm perfectly imi
tates the process of digestion, and both analysis,
and experiment with the living animal, confirm
the fact that the best hay is that cut and proper
ly cured nearest the period of blossoming.
That process of curing which shall most per
fectly retain the nutritive properties present in
the plant, is the best process. In drying herbs
for medicinal and culinary uses, the experience
of many centuries teaches, that drying in the
shade is the only way to accomplish the desired
object. In making hay this cannot be entirely
accomplished, but the plan which most closely
follows it, that of curing in the swath and cock,
is a good and safe one—advantageous also, re
quiring less exposure to injury from rain than
any other.
Clover hay and coarse herds-grass especially,
need to be cured in this way, as they will not
bear much handling when dry without loss of
leaves and blossoms. When moved, let the grass
get fairly wilted and the external moisture dried
off while in the swath, with, perhaps, a single
throughout shaktng-up and spreading, and then
put into cocks, and it may be cured with very
little loss. The partial fermentation, or “sweat
ing,” which it undergoes, causes but slight change
in its constituent parts—save that it separates
the water therefrom—and after standing thus
for twenty hours, it needs but little after tend
ing, to prepare it for the mow of stacks, and has
far less of that harsh and strawy tendency that
it would possess if cured in a different manner.
Care should be taken in curing this way, not to
put up the hay before it is fully wilted, and that
the cocks be small and well constructed, so that
the sweating process may not be carried to excess
and induce so great a fermentation as to decom
pose the sugar of the hav, changing it to alcohol
and carbonic acid.
The weather has great influence on the real
value of the hay crop, but that we can neither
foresee nor control. If the weather should prove
unfavorable, and constantly changing, it is
thought that the less the hay is stirred the bet
ter—that it will retain its value while lying wet
in the swath, much longer than if disturbed with
repeated drying 3 and wettings. Nothing so
injures hay as washing bv rain, and this if many
times repeated, will totally destroy its value as
food for animals.
In cutting grass, good tools and good workmen
are essential to the economical performance of
the work. There is more of ease as well as Com
pleteness with the good workman, in the per
formance of his labors, and good tools are also a
great aid in these respects. Order and readiness
in the whole round of preparations give largely
increased facilities for pushing forward this and
all other farm operations. It is important to
have ample means to do everything and when
it should be, since so much depends on the right
curing and securing of the hay cron. The in
troduction of mowing machines and other labor
saving implements is of much importance to the
farmer, rendering him independent, in some de
gree, of manual labor, often difficult to be secured,
and always dear at this season of the year. With
the requisite team, a good mowing machine and
horse-rakes, the usual number of laborers em
ployed on the farm will sooner secure in good
order, an hundred acres of meadow than they
could a dozen under the old system.
Sunday Morning at the Dibdins.
“Jane,” (suddenly exclaims Mrs. Dibdin,)
“ do you know it is nearly time for your Sabbath
school to commence? I hope you have com
mitted your hymns and commandments to me
mory. Put on your little jet bracelet, and ruf
fled pantaletts. Now, say the third command
ment, while I fix your curls :—it does seem to
me as if your hair never curls half as well on
Sundays as on week days. Mind, you ask Let
ty Brown where her mother bo’t that cunning
little straw hat of hers, not in sabbath school, of
course; that would be very wicked, but after
it’s over, as you walk along to church.
“ Jane, what’s the chief end of man ? Don’t
know? Well, it’s the most astonishing thing
the Assembly’s Catechism don’t stay in your
heap any better ! It seems to go into one ear
and out of the other. Now pay particular at
tention while I tell you what the chief end of
man is. The chief end of man is—is—well—l
—why don’t you hold still? you are always
putting a body out! You had better run up
stairs and get your book. Here, stop a minute,
and let me tie your sash straight. Pink is very
becoming to you, Jane ; you inherit your mo
ther’s blonde beauty. Come away from that
glass, this minute; don’t you know it is wick
ed to look in the glass on Sunday ? See if you
can say your ‘creed’ that your Episcopal teacher
wants you to learn. Come; ‘I believe.’ (In
less than one week your toes will be through
those drab gaiters, Jane.) Goodness! if there
isn’t the bell ! Why didn’t you get your
lessons Saturday evening? 0! I recollect;
you were at dancing school. Well, you needn’t
Bay anything about that, to your teacher;
because—because there’s 1 a time to dance,’ and
a time to go to meeting, and now it is meeting
time ; so come here and let me roll that refrac

do walk solemnly along to church as a baptized
child should.
Here! stop a bit! you mav wear this coral
bracelet of mine, if you won’t lose it. There ;
now you look most as pretty as your mother did
when she was your age. Don’t toss your head
so, Jane; people will call you vain; and you
know I have always told you that it makes very
litt'e difference how a little girl looks , if she is

Russia and Turkey. —The developments in
regard to the Turkish question give a more
threatening aspect to affairs. Count Nesselrode
has issued a new circular, more impudent than
the last, claiming that Russia oecupies the Prin
cipalities because the French and English fleets
are in Turkish waters, and hints out clearly that
Russia will refuse all conciliation until the fleets
are withdrawn. A willingness to evacuate the
Principalities is, however, expressed when the
demands of Russia are complied with.
An important despatch has been received
from Amsterdam, stating that Baron Bruck, the
Austrian Envoy at Constantinople, instead of
being charged with a conciliatory mission, has
made an imperative demand on the Porte for all
the concessions previously refused to Leiningen’s
mission. This would seem to indicate collusion
between Austria and Russia.
A despatch from Vienna announces that troops
are about to be concentrated at Peterwardein for
the protection of the frontier.
It is said that the Porte will publish a reply
to the Emperor of Russia, setting forth all the
injustice with which Turkey has been treated
by Russia.
This note has partially opened the eyes of the
European public, who see the necessity of bring
ing the matter to a close, Russia’s object being
merely to gain time to render her position im
pregnable. Although the possibility of war is
scarcely admitted, public opinion begins to de
mand something decisive. The public are tired
of being continually amused with despatches an
nouncing a pacific tendency of affairs. The
latest report is that France and Englend had last
week forwaided a note to St. Petersburg, pro
posing mutual concessions in order to end the
dispute, to which an answer was expected about
July 18th.
Smyrna.-— Advices from Smyrna to the 29th
ult. brings intelligence of a difficulty which had
occurred there between the captain of the U. S.
frigate St. Louis and the Austrian authorities.
The Austrians attempted to remove in a brig to
Trieste the Hungarian Colonel Costa, an emis
sary of Kossuth, owing to whose arrest a riot
had broken out. The captain of the St. Louis
claimed Costa as an American, demanded that
he should be delivered up to the protection of
the United States, and would have taken him
by force if Costa could have sustained his claims
to citizenship.
The conduct of the American commander ex
cited great admiration. In consequence of the
disturbance, Austria had demanded and received
satisfaction from Turkey, the Governor of Smyr
na being removed. The St. Louis was still in
the vicinity of Smyrna.
Greece. —There is nothing further in regard
to the case of Mr. King.
France.— The plot against Napoleon’s life! at
the Opera is more serious than at first supposed.
A conspiracy has been unraveled, and the pris

The French Minister of War has addressed
the President of the Chamber ot Commerce, at
Nantes, in the following strain :—“We are not
bent on war, but if the Emperor, to whom the
honor of the government is dearer than all, should
think that the national honor demands war, he
certainly will not recoil.”.
The Paris Bourse was dull and most of the
funds had declined.

A new paper is in contemplation here, to

The Hon. J. J. Sibels, Charge d’Affaires to
Belgium, arrived this morning. The Hon. !
Enock B. Talcott, collector at Oswego, is also i
here.
Gov. Seymour, of New York, is said to have
got into trouble with the President touching the '
appointment of a whig editor to a $1,200 place j
in a department here. Gov. Seymour, it is said, ,
endorsed him as a democrat, and he was imme- j
diately commissioned. The “ Old Guard,” in
Oneida, charged Seymour with helping to elect a 1
whig congressman in his district, and says that 1
this appointment was a part of the bargain. j «
Sticking to Principle.-— About thirty-five
years ago there resided in the town of Hebron, a
certain Dr. T., who became very much enam
ored ot a young lady in the same town. In due
course of time they were engaged to be married.
The doctor was a strong decided Presbyterian,
and his lady love a strong, decided Baptist.
They were sitting together one evening, talking
of their approaching nuptials, when he remarked,
“ My dear, there are two events which I shall
number among the happiest of my life ” “ And
pray what may they be,Doctor?” asked the la
dy ; “ One is the hour when I shall call you my
wife the first time.” And the other, il you
please.” “It is when we shall present our first
born for baptism.” What, sprinkled.” “Yes
my dear, sprinkled!” “Every child of mine’
shall be sprinkled.” “They shall be, his!”
“ Yes, my love.” “ Well, sir, I can tell you
then that your babies won’t be my babies. ” So
good night, sir.” The lady left the room, and
the Doctor left the house. The sequel to this
true story, was that the Doctor never married,
and the lady is an old maid.
The Poison of Rattlesnakes. —At a late
meeting of the Boston Society of Natural Histo
ry, a paper was read showing that this poison is
a most powerful sedative, and that stimulants
were its antidotes. Alcohol is designated. In
two instances in which this remedy has been
applied, the persons have been cured. Brandy
was freely given to them until relieved from the
usual symptoms, and continued in smaller doses
until the third day, when they went about as
usual. Alcohol, in these cases, did not produce
intoxication. ”1 he venom of rattlesnakes is now
employed as a remedy, and is already found to
be a specific for very many maladies.
Mark, says a sensible writer, the laboring
man,-who breakfasts at six, and then walks per
haps two or three miles to his work. He is full
of health, and a stranger to doctors. Mark, on
the other hand, your clerk, who takes tea and
toast at eight, and gets down to the store at nine,
or half past. He is a pale, effeminate creature,
full of sarsaparilla, and patent worm medicine,
and pills and things. What a pity it is that this
class of people do not lay down the yardstick
and the scissors, and take up the scythe or the
frail for a year or two. By remaining in their
present occupation, they only help to fill up
cemeteries, and that’s about as miserable use of
humanity as you can name.

This celebrated medicine, skilfully
composed as it is of the most healing balsams and
penetrating oils, can never fail to cure almost eve
ry affliction that could be alleviated by an exter
nal remedy. Its superiority over all other Lini
ments is proven by the miraculous cures it performs
and by the great and constantly increasin» de
mand. There has been sold within the pastures
more than THREE MILLIONS OF BOTTLES
and there can be but few persons found who do i
not bestow upon it the highest praise for the rare
virtues it possesses. Nothing, perhaps, since the
creation of the world, has been so successful as an
oxternal remedy for all nervous diseases, as this
wonderful curative. When applied, it instanta
neously diffuses itself through the whole system
soothing the irritated nerves, allaying the most
intense pains, and creating a most delightful sonsa
sion. Read the following remarkable cure, which
can be attested to by hundreds who were fully ac
quainted with the whole circumstance.
Chronic Enlargement of the Tonsils.— My ; ;
daughter, when six months old, was taken with a §
swelling in the tonsils, which grew larger and lar- ;
gor, till when six years old had great difficulty in
swallowing her food. Every night watch was kept,
fearing she would suffocate.* The best doctors!,at
tended her but could give no relief I took her to the
most eminent doctors in the East; they said there
was no help for her but to outgrow it. With asad
heart I returned homo with her, when she became !
so much worse that the doctors had to be called in
again ; they decided that the tonsils must be cut |
off, as the only means of giving relief. My wife
would not consent to this, and sho determined to
try your Liniment, which gave relief the very first
application, and by a continued uso she entire
ly recovered. She is now ten years old and fleshy ,
and healthy as could bo desired. Your Liniment ’
is also the best in use for sprains, bruises, cuts,
burns, headache, etc., and it will remove the most
severe pain in a sow mutes. It also cured caked
udder in my cow in a few days.
