An article in the last number of the Journal A

IM in hi* behalf.
t 5 .v, positively and uuequivocally, that Mr. A
v- not a candidate iu the recent election. The
wlv condition upon which he would have con
•vr ted to become a candidate, was the absence of
■ u.u'.fH. After that condition was found to
re tailed, I, who kn>.w hi* mind, refused the use

f so it. He had no knowledge of the
announced, nor what appeared in the
iip.ip.T3 concerning him. Nor did 1 till they
('•remade public. I staled to all alike who came
m •>* on the subject, that 1 refused my content to
Sr. Anderson’s being run in any contest. If anv
ci'-T-d was in fact made, neither he nor 1 can be

•it not my fault nor his. 1 neither voted for

ot Almighty Gud lor the esfiecial favor which he

regad it as indue and chiefly bv a generous dispo

commonweaiih, which with filial reverence it is
my highest pride to c-a'l my mother.
Singled out by our common foe through long
years, as tne especial recipient of more than Phi

the coutiuou champion, aud aided bv your coiift

though small in stature, she took the smooth atone

!1 cuceforth and lor ever, we have neither part
nor lot with the Philistines. Our political aevt*r
auce is by the fiat of iieaven. It ia wide as hu
man alienation can make it, and lasting s time.
But the achievement of our political in dependence,
• ill be, by no tueaus, all our work. We must un
coil that tissue oi more delicate, hut iti-iilious and
l.le-destroying withes which have bound the very
orgau!.-m of our commercial life, iu humiliating
vassalage to the enemies of our peace. W e must
iustituus new relations, aud see that they are so
founded as to secure to that organization a health
ful aud generous development.
Biest by Heaven with a- goodlv a heritage a
the sun ever vhoue upon ; entrusted by an all-wise
Providence, with the guardianship of a race of his
creatures, whose highest knowledge of his favor,
has been your patriarchal care, and bv whom God
has made us the almoners ot iiis bounty iu cloth
ing the world; now- that we are driving off the
spoilers of nur heritage who vexed our laud while
they sucked its fatocss; now that we are about
tairly to cuter upon the untiauiuielcd possession
of our estate, we mu-u arouse to the fulness of
our r.spot.slbiJitha, the luliiess of our privileges,
and the fiffiit-ss of the ju>t ex|iectations from us.
W hsle our gallant arniiis are rolling back the pro
niiSid sufjugators ot our domain, wc must disen
thrall our.-clves from that depressing commercial
dependency, in which we have so long tiuvklv ;ic
v)uiesced. Ibe oh- sons of this Southern soil,

haVi-appi opr: j ted to then selves so large a portion
of the rewards of out labor.
VVe have dis-olved aco partnership in which
thoee who tarnish by tar the largest part of the

but a meagre share of the fruits of taeir contribu

sions of those who.-e lean and hungry bodies have
waged fat and insolent upon the nutriment which
we supplied -co partner* among the most intoler
able ol whom are those who, in exchange for our
cotton, rice, sugar, corn, wheat and tobacco, have
contributed to the common stock two ciops—a
cup of rock* in the summer, and one of frozen
water in the winter.
Hereafter, we take our capita! and resources,
under our own manageme nt, aud we come togeth
er at this time, to as-Gt each other with our coun

our new bu-iness relations, * to ensure its suc
cessful aid harmonious operation.
I am sure I t eed not invoke for your delibera

The fiery pathway through which we are treading,
the sublime ends at which wc are aiming, the turf
still toddeu wiih the uiingted lite-eurrenu* of our
noble band of martyrs, “bone of our bone, aud
flesh of ojr flesh,” all forbid the thought that we
shall he other than of one miud aud one heart.
Gen. Duff Green moved that the Secretary read
the call for the Convention. The Secretary then
read the call issued by the Macon Chamber of
Commerce.
Gen. Duff Green moved that a financial commit

Mr. G. A. Trenhol-n, of Charleston, offered as
an ameudtnent that the Chair, Uuiiug the recess

and one on commerce, to be composed of twio
from each tftate represented, to whom all resolu

without avail. They sent fur the British

Domestic Coffee*--‘Heelpcs lar the Times.”
In good faith to all economical houekeepcrr,
you, no doubt, published, two weeks since, a r*ci
pe tor making “good coffee” (as a subeutute to
the foreign article) from a production to be found
on every plantation which was the syreet potato.
The idea is by no means new, but may uot be
known to many who have not expeticuced times
like the present —when economy and retrenchment
were necessary. It ha 9 been used many years, to
a considerable extent, by the best housekeepers
in the State, and there are those amongst us who
have not yet forgotten Mrs. L , a noted hotel
keeper of Haucoek county, who acquired great
credit from travelers for her “good coffee,” whiL*
she used nothing else hut the article spoken of,
properly prepared. I hare heard very favorable
reports ol it since your publication, and wish it to
have a fair trial by all—even such as only estimate
the value and excellence of au article by it* cost. —
Please tepublish the recipe that it n.ay meet the
attention of some who may not have noticed it:
“To make good coffee peel sweet potatoes,
nnd slice them J to i an inch in thicknesss, then
cut into strips about the same width ; then cut the
strips into squares so as to average the same size
as near as possible. Then dry them in the *un
three days as you do fruit, be careful to take them
in at night and spread them on a table to keep
them from spoiling. After they have been dried
three days in this manner, they can be put in a
bag and kept auy length of time.
“When you wish to use them for coffee, roast
them as you would coffee; be careful not to burn
them, but roast them lo a dark brown; and grind
and use them 3 you would the coffee.
“ fain using it daily, aud find it equal to the
best old Java. W. S., Jr.”
I have also noticed a recipe in the Macon Tele
graph of the 26th ult., (which probably represents
the ta*te from whence it emanates). Plei>9e also
to submit it to the attention of lady housekeepers,
and any one who chooses can test the difference
between that ot “ YV. S.” and “ Telegraph” coffee :
“Recipe* for the Times. —To Make Coffee.
—Take tan bark, three parts; three old cigar
stumps add a quart of water, mix well, and boil
fifteen minutes in a dirty eoffee-|K>t, and the best
judges cannot tell it from the finest Mocha.”
I would also add something of my experience
iu domestic coffee, being desirous of contributing
my little mite to aid the |>eople of the South in
these perilous times. I wish to introduce the
Okra coffee, as being the best substitute yet of
fered. Take the dry seed, parch, g:ind and make
it as you would any other, and you will have an
exi-ellent coffee. It is much like our Rio coffee
in smell uml iaste. Let everybody try it, and
prove it, and procure seed, and cultivate this great
plant for our own use. I believe it to be a much
more healthy coffee than the kinds we have ac
customed ourselves to using.
1 request thv papers generally to publish this,
that everybody may give it a tiial.

Died in Macon county, Sept. 26th, IS6I, Mr.
James Drawiiorn, son of Mr. Thomas Drawhorn,
aged 26 years, 8 months and 4 days.
He was a young man of high promise—honora
ble and noble in bis bearing toward all with whom
he was acquainted, consequently, he was admired
and loved bv all who knew him. He enlisted in
the service ol the Southern Confederacy under
Capt. Griffin of the Butler Van Guard-, and was
stationed at Yo:ktow, where he performed his
duty, as a soldier, faithfully, until an allwise God,
iti his prov deuce, saw proper to send disease upon
him. He was attacked with measles first, and then
camp fever, which resulted in his death. He lay
sick in Yorktown nine weeks, after which time,
he came home helpless as an infant, and told his
parents he had come home to die and was perfectly
willing to leave this world of trouble, for he was
going to a better one w here there are no wars nor
lighting, but all is joy nd peace with those who
put their trust in the Lord. In his dying moment
lie looked at iiis weeping mother and asked her
to go with hitn. These were the last words spoken
bv him. His spirit then took its flight to Heaven.
He leaves tnanv relatives and friends to mourn his
loss.
“ Blessed are they that die in the Lord, for
