Markets.
Liverpool , Aug. 27.—The Cotton market is
quiet, at no quotable decline. Lower grades

pool on Wednesday, for New York via Boston.
Further per Steamer Asia.
The foreign papers by the steamer Asia,which
arrived at New York on Thursday night, from
Liverpool the 27th ult., do not contain anything
of greater importance than the following:
The Eastern Question. —The following des
patches caused considerable excitement, they be
ing interpreted that the Russians had re-crossed
the Pruth; which, however, does not appear to
be the case.
‘lßucharest, Aug. 10.—Gen. Osten-Sacken,
thecommander of the third corps of the Russian
army, has crossed the Pruth with his forces.—
Gen. Luders, who commands the sth corps, is
still at Ismael.
“Galatz, Aug. 12. —A Russian Commission
has arrived at the Sulina mouth, to investigate
the condition of the river, and to advise as to the
means of making it navigable.”
A report prevailed at Constantinople on the
11th, that a collision had taken place between
Omar Pacha and the Russians on the Danube.
Had there been any truth in this report it would
ha ve reached us in a more authentic shape ere
now.
As usual, it is from Paris that we have the
only information we possess respecting the pio
gress of affairs. Correspondence from that capi
tal states that the French government had re
ceived despatches from Viennu, which are sur
mised to contain the adhesion of the Porte, but
only on the indispensable condition that the
Danube Principalities shall be evacuated, before
the Sultan will send an ambassador to the Czar.
To meet this punctilio the Vienna conference
had proposed a middle course, for the joint ac
ceptance ot the Czar and Sultan. This proposal
had been communicated from Vienna to Con
stantinople and St. Petersburg, and some time
must necessarily elapse before replies can be re
ceived.
Halil Pacha is mentioned as the intended En
voy to St. Petersburg.
From Constantinople, the general tone of cor
respondence indicates that England is losing
from day to day her credit, influence, and popu
larity in the East, while France is gaining in the
same proportion, from the firm attitude she has
taken during the whole of these troubles.
Servia. —We have some further accounts of
the reported troubles in Servia, but the dates are
not given clearly. Prince Alexander Karba
georgewitsch bad left his capital, taking with
him the archives of the State, &c,, and had re
tired to Kragvvatch, a town in the mountains.
He had, moreover, called out all the national
militia, amounting to 40,000, and had appointed
Knitshianin commander-in-chief, and publicly
declared that he would repel any invasion,
whether Austrian or Turkish. The Servians are
divided into two parties—the partisans of the
reigning Prince, and the supporters of the ex
lamily of Obrenovich.
England. —On the 24th, at Osborne, Mr. In
gersoll delivered to the Queen ffiis letters of recall,
and Mr. Buchanan was presented by the Earl
of Clarendon.
Three hundred and seventy railway laborers
had been embarked at Southampton for Sydney,
under contract to work for two years on the
Sydney Railroad at five shillings sterling per
day. They were accompanied by their ’’fami
lies. -
The Crops.— ln regard to the all important
question of the grain crops, the advices are that
in England wheat is short, but the quality good ;
other small grains favorable ; the potato disease
very partial. In Scotland, the crops generally
good. Broken weather has visited Ireland, but
the crops have not thus far suffered. In France
the wheat crop is 25 per cent, short. Rye, bar
ley and oats abundant. The south of Russia
yields most favorably. In Holland and Italy
the crops are decidedly short. The grain mar
kets in Great Britain and France are all reported
firmer and higher. There is much speculation
going on, and money is sufficiently abundant to
lend all necessary facilities to the operations.
As the steamer sailed, the weather at Liverpool
was rainy, w’ith high winds.
Ireland. Archdeacon McCarron, parish
priest of Waterside, Derry, died on Sunday 21st,
while officiating at the altar.
Engineers and valuators are to be immediate
ly spread over the country, to take a new valu
ation of the property as a basis for levying taxes,
including the income tax.
The receipts at the Dublin Exhibition are now
close up to the paying point; 8,000 to 9000 visi
tors is about the daily average.
The Chanceller, Lord Campbell, had given a
dinner to the tenantry on his newly acquired
Irish estates Some of the English papers speak
of it as “ the advent of a new era in Irish histo
ry.”
Franck. —There is quite a strong feeling
among those who think as the Emperor is sup
posed to do, on the subject of the Belgian matri
monial alliance with Austria. An article in the
Constitutionel, hints significantly that the natu
ralbouudary of France is the Rhine. The ab
sence of the French minister from the ceremony
was noticed.
The commission appointed by the Minister of
Marine and Colonies to examine Erricson’s cal
oric discovery, had arrived at Havre, an engine
on the caloric principle being placed for trial in
the works of M. Mazeline. The commission is
presided over by M. Paris, a naval officer, who

who acts as Viceroy to return to the capital.
London Market, Aug. 26— p. m.
The corn market has been in a very excited
state, and on Monday an advance on that day

by importers; yesterday middling Orleans was
quoted at 6£ per lb.
Burlington, Sept. B. Vermot Election—Re
turns from 97 towns, being the most populous in
the State, give Fairbanks. Whig, 10,200; Robin
son, Democrat, 8,400; Brainprd, Freesoil, 3,500.
The remaining towns will not alter the result.
The Temperance Whigs voted for Robinson in
large numbers. Ninety-six towns elect 49
Whigs, 37 Democrats, and 10 Freesoilers to the
Legislature. The Whigs will probably have a
majority.
[ Second Despatch .]
Boston, Sept. Bth.—The Atlas has received
returns from 104 towns of Vermont, which give

Philadelphia, Sept. B.— Trial of Bishop Doanc
—The Court of Bishops re-assembled at Camden
this morning.
In reference to the motion of the respondent,
the court decided that the paper prepared by the
Diocese should not go on the journal.
In reply to Bishop Doane’s request that the
note of remonstrance prepared by the same com
mittee should go on the journal, it was decided
that it might.
Bishop Doane then proceeded with his argu
ment upon the motion to dismiss the present
ment, but soon introduced an inquiry tending to
the production of the original presentments.
The Presiding Bishop said he never had them,
that they were supposed to be among the papers
of the late Bishop Chase.
Bishop Doane pressed his demand for them.
The Court, after a private deliberation, unani
mously refused the motion, on the ground that
this was not a Court of Record, and that the
printed records of the former Court were in the
hands of the respondent and might be offered in
evidence.
The respondent asked time to consider the
course which he should pursue, but intimated
that he might decline to go on at all before a
Court which admitted itself not to be Court of
Record. The Court then adjourned.
Philadelphia, Sept. 9. —The court of Bish
ops re-assembled at Camden this morning.
Bishop Doane occupied the attention of the
house till 1£ o’clock, with an able speech in sup
port of his motion to dismiss the presentment, at
which hour the court took a recess of half an
hour, when the presenting Bishops will reply.
The Court will then have to deliberate, and the
question is not likely to be reached tillto-mor
row.
jSECOND DESPATCH ]
Camden, Sept. 9. —After Bishop Doane had
concluded his speech, which was of three hours,
delation, Bishop Mcllvaine replied, and, with
out concluding, the court adjourned.
The vote on the question will hardly be reach
ed before Monday.
New York, Sept. B.— Steamboat Explosion —
Murder. —The steamer Bay State, from Fall
River for New York, burst her boiler this morn
ing, severely scalding some dozen passengers,
among whom were Mr. De Wolf, of Chicago, and
Mr. Warren, of Dartmouth, Mass. No one
was killed. The accident was caused by the
caps of the cylinder flying off, driving the steam
into the ladies cabin. TbesteameT Connecticut
fortunately soon came alongside, took the pas
sengers off, and brought them to the city. Four
persons seriously injured, and taken to the hos
pital—probably will die. Steamer left at Black
Rock.
A man named Wallace Parke was killed in a
dance-house here last night by a person named
John H. Holt, who was subsequently arrested.
[Second Dispatch. |
New York' Sept. B.—A steamer has been
sent to the Bay State’s assistance. The scalded

whom are Mr. De Wolf and family, formerly
of Bristol, R. Island. Among the slightly scald
ed are Jno. G. Abbott, of Boston ; Mrs. George
M. Wheeler, of Boston; Charlotte Snow, of Dart
mouth ; Edwin Wilson, of New York, and Al
mira Haven, of Fall River.
The Charges Against Bishop Doane. —The
following are the charges against Bishop Doane,
of New Jersey, whose trial is now pending:
1. In contracting numerous and large debts
beyond his means es payment, amounting in
March, 1849, to| $280,000 his property bein o,

Hays at an exorbitant rate, to wit: often at
twenty per cent, per annum, in the several sums
for which said notes were drawn, thereby viola

The Next Western Hog Croc.— We glean
the following from the correspondence of the
Cincinnati Price Current.:
In Higginsport, Ohio, the present stock of
hogs is one-fourth over that of last year. About
Beardstown, Illinois, the hogs are fewer than
last year, but of better quality. Feeders say
pork will range from 3tos3 50 per cwt. There
will be a large crop in Racine, Wisconsin. Fif
ty per cent, will be added to last year’s product
for Knox county, Illinois, and nearly that for ad
joining counties ; 3 and 4 cents for pork is spo
ken of next fall. Around Economy, Indiana,
there are about one-fifth more hogs than last
season, but not in as good order. There are
more hogs in the vicinity of Gratis, Preble coun
ty, Ohio, than last season, the quality not quite
so good. In Boyle and ihe adjacent counties ol
Kentucky, the number fattened will be larger.
Six or eight counties about Lagrange will raise a
third more, and the hogs will be large and well
fattened. The State of Wisconsin is full of them,
and pork will bring sf. Hogs about Graysvilie,
111. will exceed the crop of last season one
lourth or one-third; 6,500 will be packed there
next season, and will be 9 or 10 per cent, heavi
er. In Waverly, Ohio, hogs number about the
same, but are held 20 per cent less in weight.
Tne crop about Dubuque, lowa, is 25 per cent,
larger than last year’s. Rockport. 111., will turn
of! one fourth more, or 800 to 1,000 more.
[From the N. O. Picayune , Ith imt.\
Later from Texas.
By the arrival of the steamship Perseverance
Capt. Forbes, we have received dates from Gal
veston to the 2d inst., and Indianola to the 30th
ult.
The yellow fever had made its appearance in
Galveston, as the following resolution, published
by the Board of Health on the 2d inst., will
show :
At a meeting of the Board of Health this
morning, after hearing the reports of most of the
practicing physicians iu the city, it was
Resolved , That it be made known to the pub
lic that the yellow fever exists in the city in a
mild form, yielding readily to medical treatment,
and that it is confined entirely to persons who
are unacclimated.
There had been but two deaths from yellow
fever for the week ending August 27.
As far as election returns have been received,
Pease, for Governor, has a majority of upwards
of 3,000 over Ochiltree, the next on the list, and
i Dickson nearly 4,000 over Robertson for Lieu
j tenant Governor. Kirby’s vote nearly equals
Robertson’s. Bell’s majority over Scuiry is
about 2,000.
The amendment to the constitution is adopted,
and the river bill defeated, by overwhelming
i majorities.
The Austin Gazette, of the 27th ulc., says a
highly intelligent gentleman ol Gass county,
now in that city, informs the editors that he has
traveled recently over most of the northern and
upper central counties of the State, and in all
that region the crops of corn are most bountiful,
and the cotton crop is promising beyond prece
dent. He thinks corn this tall, in the counties
alluded to, will scarcely command over a bit per
bushel, and the yield of cotton will by far exceed,
that of any former year. This will be gratifying
news to emigrants.
From Santa Fe.
By the Western mail, which arrived at St.
Louis on the 23th ult., letters and papers to the
30th of July were received from Santa Fe. We
take the following from the intelligence pub
lished in the St. Louis papers:
The Gazette, of the 23d, gives this account of
the accident to Lieut. Beale’s party :
Information reached us a few days since from
Lieut. Beaie, by Mr. Cosgrave, of his party, Mr.
C. states that the party got on rapidly and well
to Grand River, a distance ot 300 miles from
Fort Massachusetts. They found the river very
high, and the crossing bad, owing to the muddy
condition of the valley bordering on the river,
to the distance of some miles or more in width.
This mud had been left by the receding of the
river, and was half belly deep to a horse over
the entire extent ol the valley; this made the
process of digging a canoe, which had to be done
in the mud and water, tedious and unpleasant.
The work was, however, accomplished, and
the crossing commenced, and the two first loads
crossed in safety, but in crossing the third load,
which contained nearly all the provisions and
ammunition of the party, the canoe was cap
sized, and everything turned into the river and
lost, leaving barely enough to subsist the party
. until they could send back to Taos for a new
I supply.
Seven ol the party returned to Taos, among
them Mr. Riggs, banker, of Washington City ; a
supply of provisions, &c., was obtained at Taos,
and two ol the party with a Frenchman, whom
they took back as a guide, returned to Lieut.
Beale. Mr. Riggs, with three others, obtained
an outfit at Taos, and took the Salt Lake route
to California.
This unfortunate accident will detain Lieut.
Beale twenty or twenty-five days longer than
he expected to be in reaching California.
Mr. Cosgrave says the route from Fort Mas
sachusetts to where they struck Grand River
passed through a beautiful country, well watered
and timbered, and lands susceptible of being set
tled to a very considerable extent. He thinks
the route entirely practicable for a railroad.
Later from California.
New York, Sept. 9. —The steamer Star of the
West has arrived in 8 days from San Juan, bring
ing San Francisco dates of August 16 600 pas
sengers, $1,000,000 gold on freight, and $500,000
in the hands of passengers.
The steamer Winfield Scott sailed from San
Francisco an the 16th for Panama, with 400
passengers, the mails and $1,000,000 in gold, on
freight. The Sierra Nevada alo sailyd on the
16Jh for Penama with 600 over passengers
The U. S. frigate Columbia left San Juan ou
Pensacola on August 31st.
I he Hon. Solon Borland, Minister to Cental
America, would proceed to Grenada on Sept. 3d.
The specie by the Star of the West is con
sigdne principally as follows : Duncan, Sherman
& Co., $360,000 ; Burgoyne & Plume $200,000 ;
Adams & Co., $215,000 ; Drexel & Co., $56,000,
and various smaller amounts to different parties.
She connected at Nicaragua with the Sierra
Nevada, and received an addition of one million
three hundred thousand dollars in gold to her
freight.
Haxa 1 flour was quoted at S2O. Galego at
$22. Coffee firm ; pork quiet; beef heavy ; but
ter and lard decling; cheese dull; rice firm ;
lumber drooping.
Ihe accounts from the mines are very favo
rable.
Jeremiah Jeffries, formerly of Boston, had
been murdered at his ranche,near El Dorado. He
was a member of Company H, Massachusetts
volunteers, in the Mexican war.
The mining and agricultural accounts were
favorable.
Not long since, the Warehousemen of Augus
ta. struck for higher commission on the sale of
cotton. Thsy were getting but 25 cts. per bale
for selling, and they demanded 50 cts. We see
from an advertisement in the Augusta Chronicle
that they have retraced their steps, and now'
declare their willingness to sell at 25 cents per
bale, commission. We shallfnot comment up
on this retraction, for we know not the reasons
which have induced it; but we may observe in
a general way, that it is a bad policy to take a
Tv!f an< * en retreat from it.
M y° u ever sell a bale of cotton, reader?—
°- u i° r i We > but we have ‘’sampled” and
weig e , and marked, and shipped many a one,
and we have seen many a bale sold. We know,
therefore that twenty-flVe cents commission is
not a sufficient compensation for selling. If any
body wants to know the perplexities of selling
cotton, they need only attempt to dispose of a
bale to one of these sharp, long-sighted specu
lators, the day after an eighth decline is an
nounced in the Liverpool market. We have
heard speeches made over a lot of samples, that
in the mouth of a lawyer, would have been
valued at a hundred dollars at least; yet were
housemen must make them far twenty-five cents
a bale.— Sav. Alews 10 th.

on the Gth inst., the name of Elton Hodge should
have been omitted.
The River.
Great fears were entertained on Saturday night
and Sunday, that we would experience another
freshet, but we are happy to inform our distant
readers,that we have 4 been spared so dire a calam
ity. The river commenced falling yesterday
morning, after reaching the heighth of about
twenty, five feet above low water mark. It has
fallen about live feet, and was still falling when
we went to press. Great damage has, no doubt,
been done to the crops on the lowlands, and to
the Corn crop on Beach Island.
Health of Mobile.
On the Gth inst. there were 32 deaths, 27 by
YellowJFever; on the 7th, 37 deaths, 29 by Yel

Fine Tobacco.
Our friend Gus. Volger, has sent us a sample
of some Pancake Tobacco, received yesterday,
from the celebrated manufactures, Stultz & Bar
nard, which is a No. 1, article. This Tobacco is
maufactured expressly for him, and the lovers of
the weed, who are fond of a good article, would
do well to give him an early call.
New Works.
We have received from Messrs. G. A. Oates
& Bros., the following new works, just issued
from the press of Messrs. Stringer & Townsend,
New York.
The Artist-Wife, and other Tales, by Mary
Howitt. The announcement of the name of the
author of this work, is a guarantee, that it is
interesting.
The History and Rudiments of Architecture,
edited by John Bullock, editor of the American
Artisan. This is said to be a practical work of
great value. To the Architect, Draughts, Me
ehanist, Engineer, and general Mechanic, it is
of exceeding interest.
The Chattanooga Advertiser, of the 10th inst.,
says : “ A torrent of water fell yesterday, which
so Hooded the streets that plank and lumber of no
slight dimensions were carried out of town, in
the channels, and the corporation carts were
nearly shipwrecked. Hogs had to swim the wa
ter courses to save themselves from destruction,
and had it not been tor several weighty considera
tions, Chattanooga would have been among the
> l things that were !”
The same papersays: Hooke & French have
received fourteen bales of cotton from the vicin
ity of Tuscumbia, which is fifty miles west from
Decatur. This is the commencement; and
maik this fact, if the railroads and river will do
the right thing this season, the cotton will in
crease a third in quantity this year, which seeks
the Atlantic seaboard ; and if the crop be equal
to last year, it will be one-half more.
Let the mutual effort be made, and no fear
about business this winter.
Weather, and Crops.— The Savannah Geor
gian of the 11th instant, says: We published
yesterday a very interesting letter from an intel
ligent Cotton Planter in Liberty county, show
ing the ill effects which have resulted from late
heavy rains. We suppose the same effects have
been produced, to a greater or less extent, all
along the seaboard of Georgia. Yesterday and
the day before this city was visited with frequent
showers, but not heavy enough, we trust, to do
much injury to the rice harvest, which has pro
gressed very well so far. The rice crops on Sa
vannah and Ogechee rivers promise, we are
pleased to learn, an abundant pield.
The Pecan Crop. —The Victoria (Texas)
Advocate, of the 20th ult., says :—“ While the
ordinary productions of the climate, such as corn,
sugar and cotton, promise an abundant harvest*
there is every indication, in this vicinity of a
fine pecan crop. This is a crop which we can
not calculate upon, oftener than every third
year. Last season the crop was by no means
universal—but was confined to a small portion
of the trees. Should the remainder of the trees
as present appearances indicate, produce a good
crop, the yield will be abundant.

Mr. Stephens in Burke—Abolition appoint
ments, Pacific Railroad, &c.
By appointment, the Hon. A. H. Stephens
yesterday addressed the “ assembled intelligence”
of the county of Burke. A 'considerable con
course, in all, ladies, “ Citizens” and Democrats,
some 200 or 200 were present.
The old Praetorian Byrne, organized the meet
ing by making a Presidnnt, Vice President and
Secretary.
Col. C. W. Young* of Scriven, and J. J. Jones,
Esq., being on the field, were invited to enter
the lists. Col. Y. for half an hour, Mr. S. an
hour and quarter before dinner. Mr. J. an hour
and a half, Mr. S. three-quarters again, and Col.
Y. half an hour again, in conclusion after dinner i
quite a liberal arrangement by the honorable
gentleman.
We have seen several synopses of Mr. Ste
phens’ speeches at other places, and notwith
standing our reliance upon your general charac
ter for correctness, fullness and fairness, we had
actually thought that, impelled by the spirit of
party, you had looked at them through the big
end of the political spyglass; that you or your cor
respondents had rather been disposed to magnify
than even do sheer justice to his political forays
—hut actually when we adjust the telescope,
magnify, bring near, look at them, they are irre
solveable nebulae, vapor, fog, in which a micro
scope would find no nucleus.
After Col. 1 oung. Mr. Stephens look his text
—■“ Shall we recede from the position we took
in 1800 ? this is the question, the only question
now before this people,” and after an incessant
and unavailing fire for thirty minutes upon the
Democracy, “Southern Rights,” and the issues
of 1850, he again took his text and forthwith
pitched into the present administration. “ I will
tell you fellow-citizens the objections l have to
Mr. Pierce’s administration.”
First—He was elected President of the United
States and instead of adhering to the policy of
the Union, the policy of the inaugural, he was
fomenting faction by “appointing abolitionists
to office,’’ robbing the treasury, plundering the
revenues to fatten the enemies of the country.”
“ Look at the appointment of Dftc, the abolition
ist, scarcely surpassed by Geddings himself in
fanatical opposition to the South and her insti
tutions.” “It will not do for gentlemen to re
tort tfce arguments of newspapers in defence or
apology for Dix’s abolitionism.” “Give me
the proof ! n —“ shew me the evidence ” —“ give me
substantial proof of his purification.” “ I’ll have
no newspaper testimony !” Ah ! little did he
know what sort of marge the little mortar be
hind him contained.
“Look at Vroom !” “Look at Malony!”
these and their combinations occupied him
awhile—repeated his text, left it as usual and
drove into the defence of Mr. Jenkins on the
Algerine law. Mr. S. neither endorsed nor de
fended it as a principle, but rebutted the argu
ment against it, by saying “Charles J. McDonald
signed it—he must approve before he signs ; if he
signs it, ti 3 approves it, if he does both, why Mr.
Jenkins could do no worse.” “If McDonald
would make a good Governor two years ago, he
would now; if he wrould now, this being the only
objection to Mr. Jenkins, he (Jenkins) would
make as good a Governor now as McDonald
would then”. This is the kind of circle he talks
in and then tells us he has “ told as all about it.”
He read a part of the law and with evident in
tention evaded the only point Democracy makes
against it in the present campaign.
“While he told us it was a “local law” and met
no obstacle in its passage through the Legisla
ture,”he did not tell us, that it was Executive as
well as Legislative usage, to pass and sign a vast
majority of‘7ocaf” bills whenever it is clear that a
“locality ” requires or demands them, as in this in
stance doubtless it clearly appeared to Mr. Jen
kins at Milledgeville, with the “memorial,” &c.
before him. Mr. S. did not tell the “good, intel
ligent and patriotic people of Burke,” that upon
that sole and identical issue, a few years ago,
Augusta, the very community in which Mr.
Jenkins resides, the very people, his own con
stituency, for whom this law was passed, actu
ally beat him for the Legislature by electing
Mr. G. W. Lamar. He did not tell us that the
law, nor in reading did he read from the law,
that it imposed a property qualification of one
thousand dollars’ worth of real estate in the
city, or payment of a twenty-live dollar tax in
to the City Treasury, to enable a man to vote
for -Aldermen—that poor men do not own
SIOOO worth of city property, nor pay $25 tax
es, but simply that it was a “distinct board.’’
elected by th e people to keep the fingers of the
Common Council out of the pockets of the tax pay
ing poor people.”
Now, if Au gusta wants an Algarine law, a lo
cal law to keep the “fingers of the Common
Council” out of the poor folks’ pockets.as indivi
duals, we have no objection—if they want a pre
torian guard to rule over them or appoint their
rulers, as individuals we have no objection—but
when “conservative, republican (?) citizens”
put before us a candidate for our suffrage, who
not only has, but in the present electioneering
canvas, before our face, tells us that he now a
dopts and defends it as true, correct and republi
can in principle, we will repudiate and reject
him with all the energy, all the determination
that moved the truly republican sires of the re
volution to denounce that principle , when they
declared and successfully established the contrary ,
that “taxation and representation go together.”
Mr. Editor, this is the point; if as a principle
(principles are eternal truths,) it will hold good
for the municipality of Augusta, as a principle it
will hold good for the whole State. If these be
Mr. Jenkins’ ideas of free, enlightened and uni
versal suffrage ; if his Executive policy be thus
foreshadowed by his legislative, all he may re
quire, if elected, will be the power to lay this or
similar or even more odious restrictions upon the
much loved “poor man’s” vote. This is the point,
the thing we object to in Mr. Jenkins’ political
history and philosophy. Mr. McDonald might
sign the "local v bill, but never, never defend the
principle upon which the Algerine law T is found
ed.
I did not intend saying so much, but by your
permission I will go a little further.
His second and insurmountable objection to
President Pierce’s administration is “ the favor
able countenance he presented to the great Pa
cific Railway, he (the President) is in favor of
the project.” His predicate is barely a surmise,
the whole proposition absurd. His argument
that “Jeff. Davis had foreshadowed the Execu
tive opinion at a public dinner in New York,
President Pierce setting by him, opened not his
mouth.” Silence is concent. “ Members of
Cabinets never thus committ hemselves, unless
“by authority.” Having assumed the Execu
tive favor as a fact, he most lamentably deplored
the “ prodigal expenditures of the public moneys
—the unconstitutional squander of one hundred
millions of dollars,” &c., &c. That Presidents
and Governors, although merely individuals, al
ways stamped their impress on, and gave “ color
to their administrations,” and more or less
“swayed legislation according to their peculiar
views.” All this is well enough, the right sort
of talk ; but why did he not think and speak
thus in urging the harmlessness of the principle
in Mr. Jenkins’ Algerineism ? But enough of
Mr. Stephens, he is intellectually able, and per
sonally very bad looking, and herein conaists
much of his power before the people.
Mr. Jones, our had looking candidate, left the
county the day before fcr the Kingston Mass
Meeting, to baptise his blade in the boiling wa
ters of the reunited democracy of the sth. But
lest “ evil things might be said,” he returned
and the next day at 8 or 9 in the morning receiv
ed an invitation to participate in the debate;
and when his hour arrived mounted,the restrum,
and disclaiming the intention, gallantly measur
ed arm and lance with the heroic defender of the
principles (?) of “ conservative citizens ” of the
Bth district. His friends, from his very recent
nomination, thinking him unprepared, and
knowing his youth, dreaded thn combat. But
with a ehivalric bearing of a veteran knight, in
a graceful, eulogistic exordium, saluted his expert
and dangerous competitor, with vizor up, un
sheathed his blade and plunged into the fight,
and blow for blow, argument for argument (as
tar as needed) in carte and tierce, he put them in,
and when in that fatal spot between the sth and
6th, Jones thrust the Garvin Dix letter to the
hilt, out dew the blood, down went the gallant
Stephens’ blade, who reeling, almost “ cried help
me Cassius!” Mr. Stephens called] loudly for
“ that letter,” read it, turned it over, gazed a mo
ment, and seeing his main gun spiked, with dra
matic desperation raved, a wordless raving, lips
compressed, his black eye flashing, made a tear
ing demonstration, crumpled the letter vehe
mently in his hand, and gesticulated as if to
throw it to the ground and stamp it—but sud
denly exclaimed, “ I won’t,” and whirling to
Jones, “ Where is Vroom’s letter ?” “ Where is
Maloney’s letter?” “ Where! all the letters
from the other abolition vipers now warming in
the bosom of Executive favor?” '‘You have
not had time to get them \ Vroom is at Berlin j”
“Maloney and others are too far to furnish lef
ters just on the eve of an important election.”
Jones early relieved the anxious apprehension
of his many friends, pricked the ears of his
political enemies, and set the Lion of Talliaferro.
in a rage. He wanted to know if the baptism
of the Compromise waters had healed the foul 1
and fungous ulcers of Webster, Fillmore and j
Corwin, why not its conservative virtues be ex
tended foDix? and even Vroom and Maloney.
Madison (?) vetoed the Maysville Railroad bill
—Jackson crushed and Tyler annihilated the
U. S. Bank bill and it made no difference with
him, what Mr. Jeff. Davis, what Mr. Guthrie
shaddowed forth ; “ whenever presented tor his
signature Gen. Frank Pierce would veto the great
Pacific Railroad bill.
Jones met him at every pass, behaved gallant
ly and bore from the field unseathed;the stream
ing banners of Johnson aud of Pierce. And
when you hear him you will appreciate his fire
and his metal, and when he has fought through
half the fields contested by his polished competitor
he will not prove an undermatch for any Knight
who may be gerrymandered within the limits
of the misguided Eighth.
