CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. AUGUSTA. SATURDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 14. “When shall our troubles have an end 1 ” No mail again last night! We have been dying for a fortnight with anxiety to see the message of our Democratic President, and arc yet doomed to disappointment. What is Ken dall about? Is he yet engaged in the New Jer sey election, or is he 100 busy writing editorials for the Globe, to attend to his office? In to-day’s paper will be found the bill which has passed the House of Representatives of this State, in relation to tlie Maine difficulty. It i« very different from the bill roported, which we commented on the other day. It is, however, but a fioor remedy for the evil complained of. “ A tvful Confessions.” The following is from the Macon Telegraph, one of the leading Van Huron papers in thin state. list it lie read hy all the true friends of the Administration. “ It is slated in the Tallahassee papers, that the Governor of Florida hat despatched Col. Fit*- patrick to Cuba to purchase blood-hounds, to pay for which the Union Hank had advanced SSOOO. This atop should have been adopted years ago.— Let northern fanatics whine and roll up the whites of their eyes as they may, humanity, as well as policy, requires that (his savage insurrec tion should be put to an end—mildly if practica ble—but pan lively /« an eiulJ HAD THE GOVERNMENT PAID LESS REGARD TO THE PIOUS GROANS OF THE ABOLI TIONISTS, AND MORE TO THE BLEED ING WOUNDS OF FLORIDA, the savagea before this might have been subdued, and the country at peace. It is folly, nay blind inlatua tion, to hold talks and make treaties with such people—it may as well lie done with wolves and wildcats, and lie equally binding. They must be treated as murderers and oul-laws, and a bounty set upon their heads.” Wc particularly recommend the above para graph to our readers, and most particularly (he lines which we have put in capitals. Wc agree to evciy aylable of it. Who is the Government here spoken if, unless it be the present adminis tration ? Yes the Democratic Administration, with Van Burcn at its head, who has been hold up to the South as the peculiar foe to abolitionists, and around whom the south should rally, as the brazen ae pent upon which the South should look for salvation from Abolitionism! And yet this ab olition-hating Administration has been so atten tive to the groans of the Abolitionists as to sacri fice “bleeding Florida !” A most beautiful con fession for a paper that is moving Heaven and Earth to continue this sarn ) administration in power! , The Macon Telegraph of Tuesday, says:— “Some excitemen' prevailed in Cotton Avenue, 1 < on learning the arrival of the Liverpool, and no , little rejoicing, that the news was no worse. A i temporary animation was given to the market; I but prices soon settled down to former rates. — We quote the same ns last week, viz; 7a 7J t cents—very liitle at the latter price, i From 1,500 to 2,000 bags come in per day.— ‘ On one day last week upwards of 3,000 'bags ] were received.” i i Messrs, Euitous :—lu looking over the list of Banks, in the Constitutionalist of the 10th, containing the names of near thirty Georgia Banks, only three are .pul down ns being at par in Augusta, and those three not received on de posite!; I understand par to mean bills that arc received on deposite. In the same liat the Notes of the Augusta Banks are quoted nt a premium ! ! At a premium for what, pray ? I owe money and cannot gel the bills off at par. Zip. Extract of a letter received in this city, dated Marietta, December 17, 1830, p. I have the satisfaction to inform you that the Commissioners of the Western and Atlantic Mail Road have received favorable proposals, for excavating the road formation from Cross Plains, in Murray county, to Ross’ landing, on the Ten nessee river. The work is to be done, though paid for in six per rent. Slate stock at par value, for a sum more than twenty-five per cent, less than similar work has heretofore cost, though paid for »n cash. The Commissioners have rejected proposals for no part of the road, except the tun nel of fourteen hundred feet length, through a mountain called Little Blue Midge, and a deep rock cut near the north-west terminus on the river. These two sections, it is believed, will soon be taken at fair prices by the same or other bidders. It is now pretty certain that the entire road for mation, yet to be done, will be executed for a sum considerably below Col. Long’s estimate, viz: $559,000; though you remember to have heard, lately at Milledgeville, that it was to cost millioni. At a special meeting of the Medical Society of Augusta, Georgia, held this day, the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously a d opted; Whereas, the Medical Society, at its assem bling for its winter sessions, is forcibly and pain fully reminded of the death of two of its recent members, Milton Antoni and Isaac Bowkn: therefore, Resolved, That aa members of the Medical So cicly of Augusta. Georgia, we lament the death of Milton Antoni, M. D., late its President, aa of a personal friend; that wc have thus been deprived of an officer, who ever presided with dignity and impartiality; that as members of tho medics! profession, we lament the loss it has sus tained of one, who labored with ardent zeal and indefatigable industry, to raise iu character and improve its science, and has left bahind him nc. ble monuments as testimonies of his devotion to its interests. Resolved, That ws mourn the losd of Isaac Bow an, M. D. late our associate, as one, who by his extensive professional learning and readiness in debate, contributed his full share to the edifi cation and entertainment of our society, and by his amiable deportment, recommended himself to our warm affections. That wc sympathise with the families and friends of the deceased in their bereavement, and tender to them our sincere condolence, with this expression of our respect for their memories. P That those Resolutions lie published in the Ga zettes of the city, and copies sent to the families of the deceased. L. D. FORD, Vice President. Pall F. Eve, Secretary. Augusta, Dec. 20th, 1839. From our Correspondent. Milleurkville, Dec. 18, 1839, The Hcnutc did nothing on yesterday of im portance, other than its action upon the appro" priation bill. The House of Representatives devoted the whole forenoon to the consideration and passage of the “Maine Bill,” (I herewith enclose you a copy of it as passed.) In the afternoon, they acted upon a number of hills, hut they were almost exclusively of a per sonal and local character. I send you a copy of the testimony in tho case of the Stale vs. Jolm R. Bays. It has been fully discussed in both brunches to-day, and the debates were of tlie most interesting character. The House, after spending the forenoon upon it, have laid it on the table for tho present. The Senate did not dispose of the hill for his pardon, until an hour after dark, when the yeas and nays were required on its passage, and were yeas 33, nays 37. Notice has b*ett given by Mr. Gordon, of Chatham, that an effort will be made, on to-mor row morning, to reconsider.*Jlt is expected (hat the Senate will probably consume tho greater part of the forenoon in deciding tlie motion for reconsideration. Tho House has been much perplexed to-day, in determining upon the tax act, and the numer ous proposed amendments submitted. As the bill is somewhat disfigured and complicate, as passed, and the hour was late, I could not obtain a brief of its contents. On to-morrow I shall examine it, and if there is any now feature incor porated in it, will transmit a notice of it to you. (Both branches concur in the determination to adjourn on Saturday night, but as a mass of un finished business is yet before them, there is some doubt of their .final a(\journincnt on that 1 day, | All arc eager (o depart for tlieir respective ' homeland will urge every thing to accomplish | their object. i ( A Bill to compel vessels owned or com- 1 mantled by Citizens of, or coming from tho ports of the State of Maine, and the officers, seamen anil passengers thereof, to perform Quarantine, i and to provide for a search thereof on their de parture. i Whereas, certain persons have been charged with having feloniously taken and carried away , the personal property of some of the good citizens of this Slate, and have fled to tho State of Maine. And whereas, the Government of Maine lias refu sed, after a Constitutional anti legal demand has been made by the Executive of this State, to deliv er up such fugitives from justice, which refusal is an assumption of authority, not only in violation of tho Constitutional (tampan, l>ut wholly de structive to the rights of private property. For remedy whereof, Re it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Assembly met ; That from and after the first day of March next, every vessel by whatever description or name known, owned or commanded by any citizen of, or coming directly or indirectly from any port of the State of Maine, and the officers, crew, and passengers thereof, shall perform Quarantine for and during the space of one hundred days after arrival within the limits of this State ; anil whilst such vessel may he under Quarantine, it shall not be lawful for the officers, seamen and passengers thereof, or any of them, to go on shore, or on board of any ship, vessel or bout whatsoever; anil in case such officers, seamen or passengers, whilst under quarantine shall go on shore, or onboard any ship, vessel or boat whatsoever, he or they shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and on convic tion shall be imprisoned ot hard labor in the Pen itentiary for a period not less than five nor lon ger than ten years. And be it further enacted. That during the continuance of this Act, no vessel from the State of Maine, us before described, nor any officer, sea men or passengers thereof, shall approach within three miles of any seaport, city, town or hamlet of this Stale, without being considered as having violated the limits of Quarantine us intended to l-o provided by this Act, and for such approach to said city, town or hamlet, lie, sheer they shall be indicted for a misdenicaiitr, and in conviction be imprisoned in the Penitentiary at hard labor, not less than five nor longer than ten years. And be it further enacted. That it shall not be lawful for any officer, seamen or passenger ofnnv vessel us herein before described, whilst under quarantine, to have or hold any intercourse or communication, cither directly or indirectly, with any slave or slaves, a free person, or persons of color, without the written authority of the owner or guardian thereof, which shall !«> the only jus tification tor such officers, seamen or passengers; and it while such vessel is under quarantine, any such officers, seamen or passengers, shall have or hold any intercourse or communication with any slave or slaves, or person or persons of color with out the authority aforesaid, he, she or thev shall be indicted for a misdemeanor, and on conviction shall be imprisoned as herein provided by the first section. And be it further enacted. That after any ves sel as herein before deserioed, shall be discharged from quarantine and before sailing from any port of this iStuto, it shall be the duty of the Captain or Commander thereof, to give twenty four hours previous notice of such departure to tlie Mayor or the highest municipal officer of the seaport city, town or hamlet, from which such vessel is about to sail, who shall lie and is hereby authorized to make a search of such vessel, and on failure to give such notice, such Captain or Commander shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and on convic tion fined at the discretion of the Court. Remarks of Mr It LACK, of Georgia, upon the Sew Jersey Election question, in the House ts Representatives, December 1839. Mr. Black, of Georgia, begged leave to occupy the attention of the House for a -lion lime, and, I*, liire he proceeded, he owed p-rhaps an apology p, the House and the gentleman from Maryland for the manner in which he had fortbe first time presented himself to its notice Ho meant no disrespect to any one here ; he had only eia-iaed the right for colleague (Mr. Colquitt) to be heard, w hen other f oi.llemen, who bad spoken repeatedly, were wun • ring trow the incidental question hclore them, and a dres.ing themselves to ths menu of the ma 9 proposition. De asaened the (josiiion he had assumed in In* claim 10 ihe floor, upon llie ground 8 that, although lhv question immedialely before ihe House might he new in its mere (mm. >el that it ; was substantially I tie same that had been debated f (or seven days before that body ;in proof ol which, f he referred to the speech just deliver'd hy the gen tleman front New York (Mr. Vunderpoel,) and lo •he reply thereto i»y the gentleman from Vermont ] (Mr. Everett,) both of which had been addresscil lo . the merits of ihe original question. In continua tion of that debate, she gentleman from Maryland j had risen, and although ihure could he no douht ■ but that he believed himself rightfully entitled lo Ihe floor, ns speaking lo a new question, yet (said ■ Mr. Hiack) the gentleman may be mistaken—ifino ecnily so, without doubt—bill not ihe lesa so on 1 that account, us he thought he had conclusively shown by reference to the character of the present discussion, Mr Black said that he, like his honorable col league (Mr. Colquitt,) begged leave lo exhibit lo the Housethe cemnussion by virtue of which he siood here. It sojliappeiis lhat my credentials of elec tion, and my r ghts consequent upon lhat election, are not disputed. So laras he was informed, no man was prepared In dispute them; hut, if the rule which hns been ol tempted to be enforced here is ultimately established, lie did nut know how soon he might he arrested in his representative capacity, and compelled In go hack to Georgia, to gather up the poll-hooks, to ascertain the competency ol the presiding officers ol election, and the qualifications of every man who had presented himself at the (mils and participated in the election, before he would be permitted to lake his seal. The ostensible question now before the House is, whether the gentleman Iroin Ohio (Mr. Duncan) shall he allowed to proceed with the testimony in behali of those gentlemen from New Jersey who ate claiming their seas here in opposition to the members elect from that Slate, who have in iheir possession the commission of the Governor To such a proposition he must answer in the negative A grave and important question—one involving (he rights ofthe Stales and the People of the Males in ihe high and momentous privilege of the elective Iranchiae—is now submitted. To whom is it sub mitted ? To a mere assembly of citizens —to men who, although they may he uliimaleiy entitled to their seals upon this floor, have not as yet produced even the prime facie evidence of their election ! Stale Ihe case us you may, turn it and twist it as you will, ‘to this complexion it must come fll last." Shall we (said Mr. U.) hear testimony,either on o ie sidu or the other, before wo are constitution* By qualified lo act on it ? Will yon hear the merits of the case before you are in n condition lo decide up on it ? ho and what are we ? (asked Mr 11.) Admit, sir, lor the sake of argument, that we are the IleprcsenlQlivi sos the People. To whom can that fact,at this singe ol our existence, he known, ssve'o those gentlemen alone who have their cre dentials in their pockets; admit lhat we have no other contest hero hut that lo the seals of the mem bers from New Jersey. I put ti to vour wisdom, sir, lo say whether we are yet organized in accord ance with the Constitution and the law ? And whether we can take cognizance of any mailer, either in our judicial or legislative capacity, until we are organized 7 Will you try a case ol such high concern before you impannel and swaeryour jury 7 Hy virtue of what authority and under what sob tnn sanction do we upj ear here us judges in a mailer ol such interest to the paities 7 liy virtue of our commissions ; by virtue of ihe authority of the sovereign Stales we represent ; and the sanction under which we should act isio be found alone in theoatli which, under the Constitution, we arc im peratively required to lake. I,el us,(lien, wlin are thus rich gated n.s iStalc Representatives, and by vir tue of-""'tale authority, proceed to organize ourselves J in order that wo may be constitutionally qualified 1 to hoar mid decide (his question. If we arc lo ar rive at that point of our 1c isiative existence at which our powers ns members of the General Gov ernment begin, we must take the only practic'd course, and that ir, the usual and ordinary imo heretofore pursued by i lie House. I«t your clerk call the roll of memheis, beginning, if he pleases, with the Stale of Maine, ami going on in geographs cal order until the whole roll is completed, ami then lot the members thus called lake the oath of olHcs prescribed hy the Constitution. Until we do thin, we have no power to do any act in our representa tive capacity Mr. Chairman, to the “House of Representatives” alone belongs ihe exclusive right, to adjudge ami determine this question. That House is made by the law pnrn/nount of the land “the judge of the elections, returns and qualifications of its own members.’ 1 Os what, then, is the House of Rep resent atiyes composed 7 Os members chosen eve ry year by the People ofthe several States; not only so,sir, hut a majority of the members so cho sen must he sworn into office before th> y can “do business" as a body recognised hylhe Constitution of ihe country. The only practical way in which this organization can be effected is, ns I suggested to t'»\l ruU <»f Inemhuiu, -uml to hw,. nr them, or a majority of them, if no more present themselves, into office upon I lie prima fade evi dence alone of the commission issued by the States which they may severally represent This is the only way in which wo may hope to pul an end to this most disgraceful stale of ihings. Upon ibis primafacie evidence ol my election—my commis sion under the great seal of the Stale of Georgia— you permit me In take my seat; and when the gen tlemen from New Jersey, who hold in their hands precisely the similar evidence of their election, present themselves lo lie sworn, reason, justice, the Constitution, and the laws made in pursuance there of, requires lhat you should extend lo them, also the same privileges you accord lo me. Wc have been here now seven days wasting the time and money of the People, and.not yet arrived at the only ninlerinl point—that of organization.. All the debate that has hitherto occurred was idle and unprofitable- He, himself, was then speaking by the mere courtesy of the House; every member who had sunken had been listened to only hy ihei same courtesy ; ami (said Mr. Rlack) unril we cam organize, and place ourselves in a condition lo noli definitely, all our debate w ill lie mere talk. In un der that we may arrive at that point, permit mo ttu address myself to the majorly—tlie numerical max jorily—on this floor, li is said that one of ihe great political parties that now divide ilieeouiilm has that majority here; if that hr truth, the whoso responsibility for the waste nf toe time and money of ihe People will ultimately full upon them. The minority here, as elsewhere, can do nothing ; the majority —w Inch is said to be an Administration! majority— are all powerful! If they refuse to acti —to organize the House upon proper principles;, and to dispose ol this question—they, and they alone w ill he responsible to llw great body of the constituency. Go on, therefore, 1 beseech you,, gentlemen of the majority—relieve ns Ifom the ex traordinary i osition in which we arc—terminate lho scenes of disorder and confusion which bare tier'll cnnslnntlv occurring here since we first as sembled —and place us in such a suite ol conalinu lioiml existence as will enable ns In decide upon (his question thus prematurely thrown I afore ua. It the tneiids of the Administration ,an thiis command and direct the nclimi ol this House, ared they are disposed lo he governed in their course by motives «( policy, I put it lo (hem to s-iy whether ilio odds will not ho tciirhilly against them if iliev continue to stand out doggedly against the organi zation of ibis House 7 Redact what may bathe opinion entertained of you il you arbitrarily ex clude these five New Jersey members from their seats trout tear that if they are admitted you may not I e able lo elect an Adm lustration Speaker. It on ihe other hand the Whigs are admitted lo iheir Beats in order lo term a House, and upon subse quent investigation they are ousted, you may ilien well claim the merit of having sacrificed y, mr p„. liiicul predilections and {tarty interests lor the pur pose ol removing oltsiiuciiviis which otherwise would have clogged the wheels of Government, mid threatened the exist erne of the union tisell. And. it the W lug voles Poll New Jersey, thus ad mitted, should tie made the instrument of placing an Opposition Speaker in the (. hair, Ins tenure ol office would rest solely on ills validity ol the voles , lliateleeled him, and the House, il the W ings from New lersey ms-ultimately rejected, would vacate ; the t han which had been filled By tit - instrumen tality of spurious votes, and uisiamly proceed to a ..ew election Such a course would secure lo you, not only the enviable consciousness ol having done your duly to Ihe country, but will ensure your suc cess in Hie election ol a Speaker upon the only grounds on w hich any party might to succ eu— upon ihe slrengih ol the legitimate and majority members ul the House of Representatives Mr. Rlack said he had os yet only spoken on the preliminary question ; and as to what might be his opinions and what his vole in regatd to tlie ulti mate right of these claimants lo the seals from New Jersey, when that question should come properly before him, he was prepared to do what iaw ami I list ice lequired. Alter ilia House should he organ i ized, he was willing io open that case; he would r lie willing lo hear the evidence on both sides, io examine the facts as to who hud the majority of le -1 gal votes, and then finally decide who are the right ful Representative* of the Slate of New Jersey • Rut before w« can achieve “a eonxummr tioirW* devoutly l-j he wished,” wo must form ourselves in to a “House of Representatives.”* In conclusion, (said Mr. 15 ) permit me to say, we have heard much during lifts «ide mid desultory debate of the rights of the People—the voice ol the People—ihg potential voice of Ihe People—and the great democracy ol the country, as contradis tinguished Irom (lie regularly organized and consti tutional authorities ol the State Govermme.nts I know not lung of such a distinction. The People of Georgia are democratic, republican, sovereign but the potential voice, of the sovereign People of Georgia is always heard through the regularly con stituted organs ol the Gove.nraent winch the Peo pie themselves have instituted. Any other expres sion of that voice, except when the People arc in theT original convention, would be but the ravings of a rnoh, and the bowlings of anarchy. He hoped that the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Duncan) would see that, until llio House had or ganized itself, and placed itself in a constitutional attitude, he could not he permitted lo go into the merits of the ease.

A REAL BLESSING TO MOTHERS, DR. W. EVANS’ CELEBRATED SOOTHING SYRUP, for Children Cutting their Teeth. —This infallible remedy has preserved hundreds of chil dren, when thought past recovery, from convul sions. As soon as the Syrup is rubbed on the gums, the child will recover. The preparation is so innocent, so efficacious and so pleasant, that no child will refuse to let its gums he rubbed with it When infants are at the age of four mouths, though there is no appearance of teeth, one bottle of the Syrup should he used on the gums, to open the pores. Parents should never be without the Syrup in the nursery where there are young children; for if a child wakes in the night with pain in the gums, Syrup immediately gives ease, by opening the pores ana iieuXm K t\ lG gums . thereby preventing convulsions, fevers, ike. Sola only nt Ur. tf/fo Evans’Medical Office, 100 Chatham street, New York, where the Doctor may be consulted on all diseases of children. PROOF POSITIVE OF THE EFFICACY OF Dr. EVANS ’ SOOTHING SYRUP.—To the Agent of Dr. Evans’ Soothing Syrup: Dear Sir —The great benefit afforded to my suffering infant by your Soothing Syrup, in a case of protracted and painful dentition, must convince every feeling pa tenthow essential an early application of such an invaluable medicine is to relieve infant misery and torture. My infant, when teething, experienced such acute sufferings, that it was attacked xvitq convulsions, and my wife and family supposed that death would soon release the babe from anguish, till wc procured a bottle of your Syrup; which as soon as applied to the gums, a wonderful change was produced, and after a few applications the child displayed obvious relief, and by continuing in its use, 1 am glad to inform you the child has com pletely recovered, and no recurrence of that awful complaint has since occurred ; the teeth are ema nating daily and the child enjoys perfect health, I give you my cheerful permission to make this acknowledgment public, aiulwill gladly give any information on this circumsti nee. WM. JOHNSON. TONIC PILLS. —The power of Evans’ Camomile Pills are such, that the palpitating heart, the trem ulous hand, the dizzy eye, and the fluttering mind, vanish before their effects like noxious vapors be fore the benign influence of the morning sun.— They have lung been successfully used for the cure of intesmitteuts, together with fevers of the irregu lar nervous kind, accompanied with visceral ob structions. This tonic medicine is for nervous complaints, ci oral debility, indigestion and its consequences, or want of appetite, distension of the stomach, acid ity, unpleasant taste In the mouth, rumbling noise in the bowels, nervous symptoms, languor, when the mind becomes irritable,desponding, thoughtful, melancholy, and dejected.

Evans' Camomile Pills were first introduced into America in 1535. EVANS ’ FAMILY APERIENT PILLS are purely vegetable, composed with the strictest pre cision of science and of art; they never produce nausea, and arc warranted to cure the following diseases which arise from impurities of the blood, viz Apoplexy, Bilious Affections, Coughs, Colds, Ulcerated Sore Throats, Scarlet Fever, Asthma, Cho lera, Liver Complaints, Diseases of the Kidnies and Bladder, Affections peculiar to Females, and all those diseases of wl atsoever kind to which human nature is subject, where the stomach is affected.
