Who’s dat knocking at the door t
There's a big White House, and a handsome one,
In a place ’way North called Washington.
As years roll on—once m every tour ,
There’s one or two strangers knocking at the door.
Oh ! who’s dat knocking at de door ?
Dat you B’hoys l don’t all say “ Aye,
For you’ll never get in.tho’ you all should try
And there’s no use knocking at de door
And there’s no u se knocking at de door.
Twas the Fourth of March in tire year ’49
When the Nigger Porter was dressed up eo hue,
As he peeped through his lock, out the re he saw,
A little fat man, a knocking at the door,
Oh ! who’s dat knocking at de door l
Oh ! who's dat knocking at de doer ?
Dat you massa Zaek 1 No, lam LASS, n
Well, you can’t come in, ’kase you got not ‘ pass
So, dere’s no use knocking at tie door,
Dere’s no use knocking at de door.
Then up came another —a great Foliwuian,
Known in the crowd asihe little Mag.cian
With a nigger on each arm, while a score or more,
Followed in his wake, as he knocked at the door.
Oh ! who’s dat knocking at de dooH
Oh! who’s dat knocking at de door !
Dat vou Massa ZACK 7 No, lam \ AN.
Clear out wid your niggers, you snot the man ,
So, dere’s iio use knocking at de door.
So, dere's no use knocking at de door.
Then another litiie fellow walked up bye and b>e,
And a tear trickled down from the corner oi each eye.
Old Sambo thought as lie looked through and saw
It was the same little fellow that had lived there before.
Oh ! who’s dat knocking at tie door I
Oh ! who’s dat knocking at de door !
Dat you Massa ZACK ! No, I am POLK.
Well we’ve had enuf to do wid sich sort ot folk,
And dere’s no use knocking at de door,
And dere’s no use knocking at de door.
A mighty, mighty ehout thee rent the air,
For a great people’s voice had thundered there,
As an honest old man stepped up to rap
Dress’d in a brown coat,and old glazed Cap,
Oh who’s dat knocking at the door 1
Oh ! who’s dat knocking at de door ?
Dat you Massa ZACK ! yes, I and FILLMORE,
Well, I guess I’d jist as well open de door.
As 1 won’t keep you knocking at de door any more.
I won’t keep you knocking at the door.
Oh ! who's dat knocking at de door ?
Oh! whj’s dat knocking at de door ?
Cincinnati.
The progress and present condition of the Queen
City of the West are thus briefly stated in a recent let
ter to the N. Y. Post;
Cincinnati is situated on the Ohio, 494 miles from
its mouth, and 455 miles from Pittsburg. It extends
three miles along the river and two back from the
water.
The city is regularly laid out. Many of the streets
areodomed by fine edifices, and shaded by beautiful
trees.
The population of Cincinnati in 1820, was 10,0C0; in
1830,24,831; in 1840, 46,338 ; and at the present time
it is more than 100,000.
The city contains 72 Churches, an Astronomical
Observatory, 3 Colleges, 4 Medical Schools, 1 Law
School, and numerous Female Seminaries and Classi
cal Schools.
13 daily,weekly, and 4 monthly periodicals are
published here.
There are in Cincinnati several extensive
numerous cotton and woolen factories, and manufacto
ries of almost every kind. But the business in w hich
Cincinnati excels every other place is pork-packing.
487,049 hogs were packed here during the last year;
412,000 of which were killed in the city.—Supposing
their average weight was 200 lbs. their total weight
would be nearly 100,000,000 lbs., which if equally dis
tributed; would give every man, woman and child in
the United States, each live pounds of pork.
Just back of the City, iies a range of hills which
are crowned by tw T o beautiful villages, Mount Auburn
and Walnut Hills. Being 2or 300 feet above Cincin
nati, the situation of these villages are excedingly beau
tiful. They overlook the city and the river, for sever
al miles, above and below Cincinnati, and Newport and
Covington on the opposite shore in Kentucky.
Walnut Hills is the seat of a flourishing Theoiogi.
cai Seminary of the New School Presbyterian Church
the President ct which is the venerable Lyman Bee
cher, D. D.
Mount Auburn is principally composed of the resi
dences ol men doing business in the city. The cot
tagesand dwellings in this village are, many ot them,
very elegant buildings. Tie grounds about them at e
highly adorned though tisere is very httie of shrubbery
that is merely ornamental. The useful and the beau
tiful are combined in the pear, the peach the plum the
apple and the vine.
Alphabetical Conundrums.
Why is the letter A. like the meridian 1 Because its
the middle of the day.
Why is the letter B. like a hot fire ? Because it makes
oil boils.
Why is the letter C like the ocean ? Because it makes
a sea.
Why is the letter D like a fallen angel ? Because by
its a&sociation with evil, it becomes a devil.
Why isthe letter E like the end of time 1 Because
it is the beginning of eternity.
i Why is the letter F like death 1 Because it makes
ail fall.
Why is the letter G like wisdom ? Because it is the
beginning of greatness and goodness.
Why is the letter H like the dying words of Adams 1
“ This is the end oi earth.”
Why is the letter I like the American Revolution ?
Because it is the beginning of Independence.
Why is the letier J like the end oi spring ? Because
it is the beginning of June.
Why is the letter K like a pig’s tail? Because it is
the latter end of Pork.
Why is the letter L like a young lady giving away
her sweetheart to another ? Because it makes over a
lover.
Cleanliness Extraordinary.
The village of Brock, near Amsterdam, in Holland,
issaid to present the most remarkable example of uni
k>rm neatness, and punctilious attention to cleanliness
that the world can produce. It is chiefly inhabited by
the wealthy farmers, who live in affluence upon the
income of their lands. Wagons and loaded carriages
are not allowed to pass through the streets, the pave
mei tof which is kept in the best possible order; while
the footwalk, which is as clean as scrubbing brushes
can make it, is sanded and marked out into fanciful or
namental figures. The doors and porches are burnish
ed, and the trunks of the trees which grow before them
are polished by frequent scrubbing. To gain admit
tance at the front door is a favor not to be expected,
except by persons ofsome consequence, and if the shoes
of a visitor happened to be a little soiled, a pair of slip
pers is presented to him at the door, which he is to use
as substitute during his stay.
Teach your Children Music.
“ You will stare at a strange notion like mine ; if it
appears even a mad one, do not wonder. Had I chil
dren, my utmost endeavors should be to breed them
musicians. Considering I have no ear, nor ever
thought of music, the preference 9eetns odd ; and yet
it is embraced on fiequent reflection. In short, mad
am, as my aim would be to make them happy, I think
it the most probable method. It is a resouice which
will last them their lives, unless they grow deaf: it de
pends on themselves, not on others ; always amuses
and soothes if not consoles; and of all fashionable
pleasures, is the cheapest. It is capable of fame with
out the danger of criticism, is susceptible of enthusi
asm, without being priest-ridden; and unlike other
mortal passions, is sure of being gratified even in Heav
en.’—Horace Walpole.
Wives Should be Housewives.
T;.e Grecians had a custom .that when the new mar
ried wife was brought home to her husband’s house
they burnt the axel-tree of the waggons before the
doors to show that the must now dwell there, and not
depart thence; and the Romans hat a custom, that
when the bride came to the entry of her husband’s
house, the bridegroom took her by the wings of her
gown, and lifted he: so high that she struck her it ad
and the door-post together, and so set her within the
doors, to teach her by the remembrance of L at !•, ->
not to go often form out of her husband’s house ; end
the Egyptians did give no shoes unto their wives, but
suffered them to go barefoot, because they should abide
at home ; hence it is that a woman s compared to a
snayl, that never goes abroad but with her house upon
her head : when the husband provides things necessary
abroad, she must be careiul to order them at home—not
to be gadding abroad, but to keep at home—her great
est virtue being not to be known of any but her hus
band. — .Spencer. 1655.
MACON, GEORGIA.
WEDNESDAY, NOV. 15, IS4B.
Unfair Treatment.
The Editore of the American Whig, Griffin, issued
an Extra on the Sth inst. nearly every return contain
ed in which, was copied without credit from an extra
Journal Messenger. Now, we have no objections
that our neighbours should benefit as much as they
please by our enterprise and industry ; but we do think
that they ought to give us some credit for it. Many of
the returns in question were procured by Telegraph a 1
a heavy expense, and the Whig in common honesty,
should let his readers know where his neics come from
and who is entitled to the credit of procuring and pay
ing for it.
American Arts Union.
The lovers of the fine arts are reminded that J. M
B ’Aroman Esqthe Agent for this city, is now prepar
ed to receive the annual subscription to the Institution.
Every subscriber,paying five dollars, is entitled to an
engraving fully worth his mot;ey, besides enjoyinga
chance to draw a prize picture worth from 825 to $6,000
The prizes litis year we understand, will be unusually
valuable as the Society will expend for them, between
$50,000 and $60,000. Those who desire to examine the
beautiful engraving of the last year, or w ho wish iurther
information on the subject, can be gratified by calling
at J. M. Boardmun’s Book Store inmieuiately, as the
list will be closed in a lew days.
Middle Georgia.
Our neighbour of the Telegraph, congratulates his
readers that the Democracy of .Middle Georgia have
stood up so ttobiy for their principles. They may have
stood up to their jrrinciples , hut they have also done
considerable standing up to Old Zac, as the majority
in the Third District has been increased from 140 to
720 votes. “ Gall you that standing up to your friends,
Hal” ?
Col William 11. T. Walker. 1
Tha citizens of Augusta have very properly tender
ed to Col. Walker, a public dinner in compliment for
Ins signal and distingui-lied services in the Army. Col.
Walker has been in many battles, both in Mexico
and Florida, and bears many honorable scars as marks
of his gallant daring and intrepidity. The dinner is
to be given on Thursday next, and w ill no doubt be a
most brilliant affair.
East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad.
The Knoxville Tribune says that a contract has been
made by the Directors of the above Company with Gen.
Green, in which the General agrees to complete the
entire road from the Georgia Road to Knoxville, in
three years, for the sum of $1,200,000. The Tribune
adds: “We understand that Gen. Green has stated
that a large number of hands will be forthwith put upon
the road, and he is confident that it can and will be
completed in eighteen months.”
New Hook Store.
Our friends who are in search of New Books, Sta
tionery , Fancy Goods,Piano and Guitar Music, will do
well to examine the advertisements ol the Messrs
Richards in another column. Their stock is well se
lected and they express themselves fully determined to
sell on the most accommodating terms. We are in
debted to this House for a number of new and valuable
Books, which ill be noticed next week.
Ollice Seeking.
Now that the election has resulted in favour of Gen-
Taylor, we hope that his supporters may abstain from
a general scramble for office. We trust never again to
see such a spectacle as was witnessed in Washington
in 1840 and 1844, and we feel confident that Gen
Taylor will effectually check all such discreditable con
duct, by refusing to confer office upon any one who so
far forgets himself as to become a regular office beg
gar. The people too, have it in their power to do
much to prevent a scramble, by refusing to give pledges,
or sign petitions, at least for the present. That Gen.
Taylor will reform the abuses of the government, and
gradually place his own friends and supporters in of.
fice we have no doubt; but it will be a work of time. J t
will require the exercise of much prudence, caution, and
mature judgement. Gen. Taylor.is not the man to in
dulge in indiscriminate slaughter for mere opinion’s
soke. He will be piudent and just. He will consult
t.te true interests of the public service and will seek out
h.s ow n government agents, regardless of the clamors
of a hungrp pack of office seekers.
South Carolina.
This State after denouncing Gen. Cass as “a vascilla
tiug, time-serving politican ; as being unsound on the
subject of slavery and an enemy of the South” has
finally stultified herself by selecting Cass and Butler
electors. Before the final vote was taken, Mr. Reid of
Anderson, as w e learn from the Daily Telegraph “of
fered a resolution to the effect that the State of South
Carolina could not consistently with the principles here
tofore held by her, vote lor Cass or Taylor; and re
commended that she cast her vote for some third man.
The motion was laid on the table.” The Legislature
next proceeded to ballot for electors, the Cass ticket
received 129 votes the Taylor ticket 27 and scattering
8. It is therefore conceded that South Carolina after
alt her vaporing on trie slavery question, has joined the
ultra abolitionists of Ohio in suppori of a Northern man
with anti-slavery feelings. How hath the mighty fall
en !
The Great Result.
By Telegraph and mail we have received sufficient
returns to enable us to arrive at pretty correct conclu
sions in regard to the great contest of the 7th of No
vember. Taylor and Fillmore have been triumphant
both in the Electoral Colleges and in the popular vote.
The vote by States may be thus given :
Certain for Taylor. Certain for Cass.
Massachusetts, 12 Maine, 9
Rhode Island, 4 New Hampshire,.. 6
Connecticut, 6 Virginia, 17
Vermont, 6 Ohio 23
New York, 36 Indiana, 12
Pennsylvania 26 Illinois 9
Delaware, 3 Missouri, 7
Maryland 8 Arkansas 3
Kentucky 12 Alabama, 8
North Carolina, 11 Michigan, 5
Tennessee 13 Texas 4
Georgia, 10 Wisconsin 4
Florida 3 South Carolina,.... 9
Louisiana, 6 .
New Jersey, 7 \\-j
- Doubtful.
163 Mississippi, 8
lowa 4
10
Maine, Virginia, Illinois and Alabama have all been
carried by mere nominal majorities. Mississippi and
lowa are so closely contested, that the actual result may
not be ascertained lor some days to come. The major
ity in Georgia alone distributed over five States would
have given Gen. Taylor between forty and fifty more
votes in the Electoral College. His triumph however*
has been sufficiently complete for all practical purposes.
It proves that he has a deep hold upon the alfections
and judgements of the American people. No Presi
dent since the days of Washington has entered upon
the duties of the Executive office so completely uu
trammeled by pledges or obligations. Gen. Taylor has
bribed no one, he has coaxed no one, he has cheated
on one into his support. He has maintained with firm
ness his position. He has left the honest people to the
free exercise of the elective franchise and they have
proven themselves well worthy ot his confidence, and
fully capable ol sustaining the great rights and interest
of the Republic. A President thus elected, cannot
be otherwise than the President of the whole people,
and while we rejoice sincerely and heartily at the re
sult, we most frankly contess that we are far from re
garding it as a mere party triumph. The men who
have elected Gen. Taylor are not mere partizans
They are the moderate men of all parties. It must be
to him a proud consideration, that he is not indebt
ed ior his triumph either to the abstractionists of
the South or the abolitionists of the North. South
Carolina and Ohio have paid him ihe high compliment
oi voting against him. The disunionisis and agrarians,
the Calhouns ,the Giddingses and Gerret Smiths have
all opposed him, and yet he has been borne triumphant
ly into the executive chair by the thoughtful, peace-lov
ing,liberty loving people. Verily this is no ordinary
triumph, it is the triumph of viitue and of true great
ness. It is die triumph of popular rights over the one
man power—the triumph ol genuine Republicanism
over the only monarchical feature left in our glorious
Constitution. It is a triumph over w hich Whigs and
Democrats may in their coo er moments rejoice with
joy unspeakable.

The foregoing estimate we published in the Journal
if Messenger, in the month of October. The great
battle lias now been fought and the smoke has so far
cleared away as to leave it certain that Gen. Taylor
lias carried every Slate which we predicted he would
carry. He will also most probably carry Illinois, which
we conceded to Cass, and Mississippi which was re
garded as doubtful. In nearly all the other Slates ex
cept Ohio, the contest has been remarkably close,in most
cases Gen. Taylor lacking but a few votes of securing
the Electoral College—Some of them he may yet ob
tain when the official vote has been ascertained. We
recur lo our prediction above, merely for the purpose of
reminding our readrrs that we have not deceived them,
in our estimate either of the worth, or the strength of
their candidate.
Horrid Murder.
An old, and inoffensive man by the name of Isaac
Sowell, was inhumanly killed in this city on Saturday
evening last, by George Passed, on account of some
slight difference in regard to tlie recent election. Bas
sett fled immediately and has not yet been arrested.
The Abolition Vote.
The returns of the late election prove beyond nil
question that Gen. Cass lias fairly divided with Mr
Vanßuren the Abolition vote of iheNotthern States.
The Western reserve, Ohio, gives Cass a largely in
creased vote, thus proving, that Giddings, Root,and
their Abolition allies had conspired together, to secure
the defeat of Gen. Taylor. So too in that part of Penn
sylvania bordering on Ohio. In Mercer county for
instance, the well known strong hold of the Abolition
ists, at the October election the majority was over 600
*or Johnson. After that election they pretended to go
over to the support of Mr. Van Buren ; but lo! when
the votes were counted out, Cass had a majority ol 39 *
So too in other counties, and in other States. Gen. Tay
lor has been elected by the moderate men, the conser
vatives of all parties. The factionists and fanatics
Seem to have eschewed him, and [to have - refused to
rally under his standard, from the very conviction tha T
he was an old time republican—one who if elected
would bring the Government back to that purity which
characterized it in the days of Jefferson, of Madison,and
W ashington. To triumph with such supporters must r
be to Gen. Taylor a greater source ot self gratulation.
even than his splendid victories in Mexico. It gives
him the same eminence in civil life, which he has hith
erto maintained in the field. It enables him to ente
untrammelled upon his arduous duties, and sustains
him in his determination to be the President of no sec
tion or party, but of the whole nation.
Taylor Jubilee.
According to previous notice, the ‘‘Rough &. Ready’’
Club ot Bibb county, met at the Courthouse on Sat
urday evening, 11 tii inst.
On motion, Sami. R. Blake Esq. was called to the
chair for the purpose ot organizing the meeting, and in
his usual thrilling, and eloquent style, congratulated
the Taylor party upon the glorious triumph they had
achieved.
J. H. R. Washington Esq., President of the “Rough
and Heady” Club, being present, then took the chair,
and announced the meeting ready for business, where
upon, Jas. A. Nisbet Esq. offered the following pream
ble and resolutions, which were unanimously adopted.
“ The election by a triumphant vote of Gen. Zach
ary Taylor and Millard Fillmore, has already
been announced to us, by the agency of the Magnetic
Telegraph. This auspicious result fills our hearts with
joy, and exultation; not tnat we would triumph over our
friends, who have honestly supported Gen. Cass ; but
we rejoice because a pure man, untainted by the
arts of the politician, is elected President—because our
Government will be brought back to the simple and
wholesome administration of the early Presidents—
because once more a man will fill the first office in the
gift of a free people, who goes into it untrammelled by
pledges and not tied down to a party platform—because
the abuses and corruptions which have crept into the
Government under the domination of a political party
for the last quarter of a century will now be reformed
—and finally because, we hail the election of Gen. Tay
lor and Millard Fillmore as evidence of what we had
almost begun to distrust, that the people are stronger
than the office holders and that the patronage of the
Government is not omnipotent. For these and many
other reasons, we mingle our exulting voice in that loud
anthem of Liberty and deliverance, which is now filling
the land. With a view to manifest our deep and glow
ing emotions of gratified patriotism:”
Be it liesolred, That a Committee of nine be
appointed by the chair, to arrange a Taylor and
Fillmore Jubilee, on Friday night next, and to repor*
their mode -t c leLrutioii through the “Journal and
Messenger.”
liesolred, That a Committee of correspondence to
consist of five, with the President of this Club as
Chairman, be appointed to invite distinguished friends
of Taylor and Fillmore to be present.
liesolred, That every body be requested and invited
, to unite with us, and particularly the Taylor men in
the adjoining counties, who have made such glorious
gains in the late elections.
The President appointed the following Committees:

The Committee appointed to arrange the mode of
celebrating the Taylor and Fillmore victory, have de- I
termined that it shall be by Illumination, Cannon Sa
lute, Torch-light procession, and display of fire works-
ORDER.
At precisely seven o’clock P. M., on Friday night,
17th inst., upon the signal of a gun, the Illumin
ation will commence, by the fighting of candles and
bonfires, to continue one hour, and the lights put out
when the town clock strikes eight.
Du ring the continuance of the Illumination, a salute
will be fired of one gun in honor of each State, that has
voted for Taylor and Fillmore.
Immediately after the Illumination a Torchlight Pro
cession will be formed at the Court House square, under
the direction of Capt. Z. T. Conner as Chief Marshall,
aided by as many Assistant Marshalls as he may deem
necessary, and proceed through the principal streets of
the City. >
While the Procession is forming, there will be a dis
play of fire works, from suitable points in the City.

Spent Tan-Bark for Manure.
This substance can easily be dried and converted
into charcoal in a similar manner as recommended forj
charring peat. It may then be mixed with night soil,;
answering boih the purpose of drying and rendering it !
fit for carriage, at the same time absorbing all the am-I
inonia.&c. It may also be mixed with urine or with
animal manure of any kind for similar purposes Tan- f
bark, in an uncharred state is of no immediate value
as a manure, in consequence of the gallic and other
l acids it contain*
The above extract lrom an unknown exchangers
something interesting to our tanners, and it is correct
too. Unburned tan bark we know to be injurious to
vegetation, but when the acid is driven offby heat, its
nature is quite different.
Ltttv oi Marriage in England.
The Commissioners appointed to inquire into the
state and operation of the law ot marriage, as relating
to the prohibited degrees ot affinity and to marriages j
solemnized abroad or in the British colonies, have just
issued their first Report. They review the acts bearing
on the subject, especially on the marriage of a widower
with the sister ot a deceased wite ; the general opin
ion on both sides, the arguments, and the facts, incli
ning strongly against the prohibition of that particular
marriage. Their decisive judgment is thus set forth—
“ On a review of the subject in all these its different
bearings and effects, we are constrained not only to ex
press our belief that the statute 5 and 6, William
(declaring such marriage null and void) has failed to
attain its object, but also to expresr our doubt whether
any measure of a prohibitory character would be effec
tual. These marriages will take place when a concur
ren:e of circumstances give rise to mutual attachment;
they are not dependent on legislation. We are not in
clined to think, that such attachments and marriages
would be extensively increased in number were the luw
to permit them ; because, as we have said, it is not the
state of the law, prohibitory or permissive, which hr*
governed, or as we think, ever will effectually govein
hem.”— Witness

Temperance Statistics.
Mr. Delavan, the Temperance Lecturer, gives the
following statistics relative to the progress oi the cause
in this country and in Europe.
In the United States, there are 3,710 temperance so
cieties, with 2,615,000 members, which includes the
Sons of Temperance. In England, Ireland, and Scot,
land, tight hunt-red and titty temperance societies, with
7,640,000 members. In the Canadas, Nova Scotia and
N T ew Brunswick, there are nine hundred and fifty tem
perance societies, with 370,000 members. In South
America, there are 17,000 persons who have signed the
temperance pledge. In Germany there are fifteen hun.
died temperance societies, wtth 1,300,000 members.—
In Sweden and Norway there are five hundred and ten
temperance societies,with 120,0t>0 members, ln'the
Sandwich Islands there are 5,000 pers. ns who have
signed the pledge of total abstinence. At the Cape o
Good Hope, there are 900 pledged members. Upwards
of 7000 persons annually perish in Great Britain through
accidents, while drunk, and the loss to the working
classes alone, through drinking, appears to be annually
$550,000,000. The tfliormous sum ol $490,000,000
were expended in Great Britain, last year, tor intoxicat
ing beverages, and 520,000,000 of gallons of malt liquors
were brewed last year in Great Britain. In Russia al]
temperance societies are strictly forbidden by the Em
peror. In Prussia, Austria and Italy, there are no tem* j
perance societies. In France, the temperance cause’
although yet in its inlancy,is greatly on the increase.— *
The first temperance society in the world,as tar as ds. j
covery is known, was formed in Germany, on Christ
mas day, in the year 1,600.

he was very much pressed tor funds to met-;:

improving, wasretrogading, so that
the future, were anything but flattering, ll
er advertised his place at all, and by way -
ment, and as a last resort, determined to a,,
a certain amount tor that purpose, and c -
commenced advertising in the most ex;

To his great surprise he soon lound that new
