Under this caption, we to-day publish
an original story, written by a young
Lady of this city. It is her first at
tempt, and knowing the teinidity of
writers, particularly females in the
south, we take the occasion to say to
“ Mattie,” that her article is credible,
and with a little • more confidence and
care on herpart, in connecting and kee'p
ing connected the thread of her stories,
her future productions will do her cred
it. We are always willing to give en
couragement and confidence to the new
beginner. Many a blight spark has
been extinguished in the South, by
making the “Old Barrel," the recipent
of the first effort. We must all creep
before we can walk, whether in litera
ture or science—and in our opinion
more encouragement should be given
to those who have a relish for Literature
or Poetry. Our best writers of the pres
ent day, political or literary, entered on
the arena selected by them with palpi
tating hearts. But with a little en
couragement, they gained more confi
dence—and with confidence they ac
quired not only an easy communication
between the mind and pen, put what
was formerly an irksone task, is now a
pleasant pastime to them. “Mattie,''
we should like to hear from again, as
we think her next production will show
more of her well-stored mind than her
first—for she will have more confidence
and, with care, will write with more
• we and fluency.
Unluriuiiute Affray.
We learn by the North Carolina pa
pers that an unfortunate difficulty oc
curred at Beaufort, in that State, on
Wednesday week, between the two op
posing candidates for Governor, Judgi
Eli.is and T. J. Mcßae, Esq. The Judgt
made an assertion which Mcßae pro
nounced false. The Judge struck him
with his fist, and a scuffle ensued, which
was soon terminated by the interference
of friends. The next day both parties
were at Newbern.and the mutual friends
of each were endeavoring to heal the
breach between them, and, it was
thought, would be successful in their
efforts.
One of our editorial friends, up
the country, has lately received a call
from the ladies. He says he was “ steep
td" at the time in writing an editorial,
and was somewhat confused. We know
of editors that the ladies would fiud
steeped in a stronger decoction than
that, call when they might.
A Favorite Route North.
We have before alluded to the advan
tages offered by the Central Route, via
Columbia, Charlotte and Weldon, and
Raleigh to Baltimore. The following
letter from Rev. Chas. H. Hale, well
known in this city, to Lewis Levy, Esq.,
the Agent of the above route, is worthy
the attention of travellers :
Washington, D. C., May 31,1858.
I>eak Sin The Railroads from Au
gusta, via Columbia, Charlotte am!
Raleigh, are not equalled by any that 1
have travelled over in the South ; a
large portion of the road from Columbia
north, is unsurpassed. The conven
iences of the roads are such that I shall
never think of taking again the old
route through Wilmington, N. C. The ,
passengers over these roads arc put to '
no discomforts, nor exposed to weather, '
delays or other such annoyances. The
country is high, healthy and pleasant— I
most oaklands—where fevers and mala- ,
rious diseases must be unknown ; the
only place where we were reminded of
swamps being the short run of ten ’
miles into Weldon. The fare on the *
roads is very good, and time enough i
given to eat it. The various employees 1
were intelligent and polite—the roads ,
were comparatively- free of dust, and ;
damp dews at night, and we made the
connections without any unpleasant '
haste. Everything was well arranged, i
and the party with me were unanimous t
(some were men of note in Carolina,
going on to the Scientific Conventions
in Baltimore and Washington) in favor c
of the new road. For one. I shall go 1
no other, and wish eveiy success to the i
“Road that carried me safe over.” c
* Yours truly, Chas. H. Hau.. j

[COMMUNICATED, j
Augusta, Ga., June 10, 1858.
Mr. Editor At a called meeting of ,
the “Montgomery Guard” held this (
evening, the following preamble and
resolutions were unanimously adopted : s
The Montgomery Guard having learn- t
ed, with regret, the action of the com- t
mittees representing the City Council (
and Volunteer Corps of the City, de
clining the celebration of our approach- ]

al pride and patriotism to honor that
day by an appropriate address :
Resolved, That we earnestly hope the
action of said committee, may be re- 1
considered and to that end. we invite our ,
sister volunteer corps, the Fire Depart- ,
ment, andtbecilizens.tounite with us in
efforts to celebrate the day in an appro
priate manner.

rangements for the occasion.

Freesolllsm In Virginia.
We present the following extract
from a recent editorial in the Richmond
(Va.) Enquirer. It is food for reflection
to the people of Georgia, or any other
State, who are not prepared to see
themselves governed by the will of ty
rants. Here it is :
i We can sec no good, whatever, to be
i accomplished by the continued discus
sion of this question. If the cottcn
States are determined to revive the
Slave-trade, and thus to destroy the value
i of slavery in every non-cotton groinng State,
. it toill demonstrate a selfishness of which we
have believed Southern States incapable. If
a dissolution of the Union is to he fol
lowed by the revival of the slave trade.
Virginia had belter consider whether the
South of the. Northern confederacy would not
be far more preferable for her than the North
of a Southern confederacy^
Is this the language of an honest
friend to Southern interests ? To us, it
sounds like the words of one whose
mind and heart is already determined
upon an act of perfidy.
“ Destroy the value of slavery in
every non-cotton growing State 1’ ’ This
editor docs not mean that the labor of
Virginia slaves would be rendered less
valuable by the importation of African
negroes. He cannot mean this, because
it cannot be denied that the present
slaves of Virginia would still have the
same power to raise tobacco or anything
else, that they now have. No, he
means that cotton planters, men of
more Southern States, would not, then,
be compelled to pay tho exorbitant
prices that they now give for Virginia
negroes. He objects to re-opening the
slave Trade because he desires the ne
groes of Virginia to be sold from that
State, becauso he is an "Emancipation
ist."
That we do the gentleman no injus
tice, in thus stating his motives, ap
pears from the very next sentence of
his editorial.
“In the Northern confederacy, Vir
ginia would derive a large amount from
the sale of her slaves to the South, and
gain the increased value of her lauds
from Northern emigrants.”
Northern emigrants ! These, with
their power at the ballot box, and their
hostility to slavery, this editor pre
fers to slavery 1 fie would rather
see the freesoil colonist of Eli Thayer pour
ing into his Stale than negroes. Who can
point to a difference between his policy
and that of W. H. Seward?
This editor thus prefers that his State
shall follow the example of Massachu
setts. When, like her, Virginia shall
have sold her slaves for three times
their value and tilled their places with
“Northern emigrants,” he will then, of
course, be prepared to lead her in a
war upon the States, who shall have
purchased her slaves! That he certain
ly intends to do, for he knows well that
lie cannot take “Northern emigrants"
unaccompanied by their principles.—
When will the eyes of Southern men be
opened to the fact that their most
dangerous enemies are the treach
erous souls of some of their own house
Hold ?
Selfishness, indeed 1 That the plan
ter of Georgia should prefer to buy his
slaves at a cheap rate in Africa, instead
of supporting a Virginia monopoly, is
selfishness 1 Selfishness is it, that the
men of the South should be unwilling
to aid Virginia in joining the list of the
free States, to make war upon (southern
property ? And is there no selfishness,
, no contemptible meanness, in seeking to
r perpetuate a restriction which compels
the Southern planter (ogive three prices
for a Virginia negro ? Is there no sel
fishness in obstructing the development
of Southern resources, that Virginia
may the sooner throw herself into the
arras of Black Republicans, after hav
ing extorted from her sister States of
the South the last dime that she can
obtain for her negroes ? We regard it
as no less than positive swindling when
a fellow seeks, by any means, to oblige
us to pay to him, more for an article
than we should he obliged to give else
where.
But that is not all. The editor con
templates joining the Northern confed
eracy. He threatens the South. “Sub
mit,” is his language rightly construed,
“to pay ns all we demand for our ne
groes, before we go over to the side of
the free States, or we will dissolve the
Union, join your enemies and make war
upon you. You shall yield to our de
mands in the one way or in the other.”
We think that Georgians “had better
consider” whether this gentlemen, with
his confederates, of whom Gov. Wise
is the leader, are not already the “South
of a Northern” despotism, whose aim
is the subjection of the whole South to |
the dictation of “Northern emigrants.” J
They already meditate treachery, and I
to our thinking, he is as black a traitor!
who meditates, as he who accomplishes j
the betrayal of his country.
Will the people of these States, wlioj
are so deeply interested in the subject!
of slavery, listen to the councils, or j
trust the faith, or submit to the dicta j
tion of one man, or any set of men, j
who threaten to go over to the einemy ?
We want in the camp no man who ad
mits that he could be induced to aban
don the course. When the hourof trial
comes, lie will desert his colors.
If this editor's councils are to be fol
lowed by the people of Vhginia, Georgia
and her sister Stales had belter consider whelh
ea it be not best, by prohibiting the introduction
of slaves from Virginia, to compel her to re •
main a border Stale. lat us interpose Vir
ginia between ourselves and “Northern
emigrants.” We can do this if we will
refuse her slaves admission to our bor
der.
But we do not believe the Richmond
Enquirer is the exponent of the feelings
of the masses of Virginia people. It
represents only the Freesoil sentiment
, f lh f ot which there is enough
from her Governor down, to excite the
alarm of every one. o

All Arkansas “Nonlls.
In a recent tour through one of the
' wildest and most sparsely-settled regions
8 of Arkansas, (says a correspondent of a
- New York paper,) I arrived at the ferry
t on Caeho river. A little log house gro
, eery stood on the near bank, about fif
teen steps from where the flat lay, tied
' to a snag in the edge of the water. Sev
' era] bear-skins and coons skins, were
nailed up to dry against the walls of the
grocery, but the door was closed and no
bar-keeper, ferryman, or other person,
was in sight. 1 halloed at the top of
my voice some half a dozen times but
: no one answered. Seeing an advertise
ment on the door, I read as follows :
“NoATis. -Efeuny boddy cutns hear
arter licker, or to git Akross the River.
They can bio This here Horne and es i
don't cum when my wife Betsey up at
the House heares the Horne a hloin

em Akross the River imeguinc a Fisliiu
no credit when ime away from Hoeme
john wilson N. B. them that can’t rede
will have to go to the house arter Betsey
taut but half a mile thar.”
In obedience to the “Noatis.” I took
the blowing horn, which stuck in a crack
of the wall close by the door. I give it a
“toot” or two, which reverberated far
around, thro caue and swamp, and in a
few minutes was answered by a voice
scarcely less loudly reverberating than
the horn—it seemed to be about half a
mile up the river, and in about fifteen
j minutes a stalwart female made her ap
| pearance, and asked if I wanted • ‘Hck-
I er.”
“No, madam ; I want to cross the river
! if you please.”
"Don't you want some licker fust 1”
“No, madam —don’t drink—never
I touch liquor.”
' “Never tech licker! Why, then, you
| must be a preaclier, ain’t you?”
| “No, madam ;I am only a son of tem-
I iterance. I wisli to get across the River,
iif you please—do you row the boat ?”
“O yes; I can take you over in less
1 than no time. Fetch up yer hoss.”
I obeyed, asking as I led the horse
into the boat, “Did your husband write
l that advertisements on thedoor there?”
“No, sir-ee 1 School master Jones writ
that. John hain't got no larnin 1”
And the good woman rowed the boat
, safely across the ugly stream; and, hand
ing her the ferriage fee, I hade her good
morning, believing then, (as I still do)
I that she was one of the happiest women
■ | and best wives I ever saw, perfectly
. | contented withher lot, because she knew

bottle of Dr. Sanford’s Invigorator, and take it,
for wo know from personal experience that it is
one of the greatest remedies for general debility
and consequent inactive bodily powers ever be
fore used. Its action is so perfect and complete
as to give relief the first time taken, and if it
does to others as it has to us, half ar bottle will
be all that is needed. We know of nothing we
can recommend with such confidence, for a fam
ily medicine, as the luvigorator. —Rahway Be
