The Cohesive Power of Public Plun- |
der#
These are the immortal three P's of,
Mr. Calhoun. Had he lived to comment:
on the late exhibitions of toadyism
toward that arch demffgogue, he would j
probably have used a different form of j
expression. The cohesive power of the 1
Douglat plunder is the phrase for the
present emergency. Six months age
ve doubt if a paper could be fouud
ruth of or Rick
ed that did not denounce Douglas as
a traitor to the South. Now apologists
for him are springing up in every quar
ter—and opposition to him is pro
nounced wickedly foolish by those, who
at time, were most bitter in de
nouncing him. The'question naturally
arises, why all this sudden change of
tone and temper-why this utter and
complete backing down from an exhi
bition of zealous and becoming hostility
to an unreliable friend if not a covert
enemy ?
At that time (six months ago) it was
regarded quite certain that Mr. Douglas
would go over to the Black Republicans.
He acted with them-woiked for them,
and certainly deserved their warm ap
proval. But they had veterans to re
ward, covered with the scars of many
battleß, and new Tecruits must bide
their time. This did not suit the rest
less ambition of the “little Giant.”—
“Mat Cascer out nulhu,” is his motto—
and at first we hear of a great combina
tion of conservatives with Douglas in
the lead—but finding it a slow busi
ness to build up a new party on the
ruins of the old, and finding a new
Presidential nomination drawing near,
Stxphkn concludes to “come back’’ and
join his ancient friends, the iron ribbed
and unterrified national Democracy.
All at once there is a change in the
tune of the organs of that party
There is something to win through the
infiuence of the returned prodigal—and
though he has not repented, but comes
back reeking and filthy with the slime
of his late debauch—he is welcomed as
one of the faithful, and all who de
nounce him are pronounced rot only
foolish, hut wickedly perverse. He
can carry Ulinois, and enough of the
Northern States, with the vote of the
South, to secure his election. This is
the excuse for receiving him back, and
granting him total absolution for his
late offence. He can hold the party to
gether, and we can be Vice Presidents
and bold other fat offices and keep our
fingers in the treasury, ergo, it is wicked
ly foolish to denounce him. Such is
the language of spoilsmen and their
retainers, who hold every other aim and
impulse subservient to the one great
end of holding together a corrupt party
and securing office. And this absorb
ing purpose has destroyed the national
ity of all the great political parties,
until they are held together by ambigu
ous platforms with one meaning for the
North aud another for the South, while
log-rolling, corruption and astounding
rascality are the favorite means of leg
islation. With such a picture before
us—and we submit if it be not fairly
drawn—is it not time to abandon man
mmhip and take to first principles ?
We cannot endorse Mr. Douglas be
cause, in our opinion, he has violated a
great constitutional law, in opposing
the admission into the Union of a State
whose Constitution was regularly fram
ed ; it matters not what were the con
tingent circumstances —it does not avail
that a large portion of the people did
not exercise a voice in framing the Con
stitution—the opportunity was offered
.them, and the fault is their own, if
they disregarded it. Through all the
(truggles pending this question—involv
ing a vital principle—Mr. Douglas
acted against the South and with the
Black Republicans. What guarantee
have we that he will not commit the
same outrage if re-elected l
A Tennessee Democrat on the Haiti
Money Currency.
McMilley, of the Cleveland Banner ,
it opposed to the hard money project of
the Union and American and the Ava
lanche, and in alluding to their late hos
tility to the banks, says:
We think that the late action upon
this subject compares very favorably
with the attack of the buzzard upon
the drunken man, thinking he was dead.
Just as the buzzard poised his beak f,r
one of tbe victim's eyes, the drunken
man blared open one of his eyes aud
said : “Look here, Mr. Buzzard, youaie
aleetletood d smart —I ain’t dead
yet.” This might be applied to those
wiseacres who have undeitaken to reg
ulate the currency.

I Why an Editor Dldirt Collect Much j
at a Court Ground .
HcNellt, of the Cleveland (Tenn.)
llanner, has recently been on a collect
i ing tour at Benton Court. He says he
! did not make quite as good speed get
ting money as he expected, but consoles
] himself with the reflection that money
is tight, and that he will do better next
time. He adds:
We didn’t expect to do much in the
money line, hut expected to make a rise
I in the chicken line, but Collins and
j Ivins slipped in ahead us and took the
. last one. We called the greedy dogs to
account about it. Collins said he need
■ed ’em to feed his “ Eagle ” on, and
Ivins said he had nigh stole the breed
i out in tlcMinn and he wanted a few for
ccuJ. Under tkio stale of cllCUDlßUiliv.es
! “ six foot four ” withdrawed “simmili
tar ” and retired in disgust, chicken
less.
Collins and Ivins are the Editors of
the Ductown bogie, and the Athens
Post. By the way Ivins thinks the Eagle
should be called the “ Ducktoum Poodle ”
to make the name “ harmonize.”—

3 A county public school superintendent
j in Alabama, not long since, was party to
rather a funny incident. He has fre
quently to examine teachers and giving
them a certificate of competency to act
1 as such. In one of the backwoods
schools the trustees requested him to
. ascertain If a young lady who applied
f for a teacherahip was able to fill the
duties of the station. Accordingly he in
formed her that, at the request of the
trustees, he would proceed to examine
her. Drawiug herself up to her full
height and retreating to the opposite
corner of the room, she exclaimed, with
virtuous indignation :
“I'll have you to know, 6ir, that you
nor no other n an shall examine me !”
The young lady’s mistake was soon
explained away, much to her relief and
that of the superintendent and trustees.

! Shooting Affray.—Yesterday after
noon, Broad streat was thrown into
some excitement by a little shooting
affair, in which H. Grosstnayer was shot
by Mr. John Redd, the ball taking effect
■ Bomcwhere about the hip, and ranging
I around the spine, inflicting only a flesh
wound, which we learn is not at all
dangerous. The difficulty, we under
stand, grew out of some misunderstand
■ ing as to the right of the possession of
a store house, Mr. Redd now occupying
it, and Mr. Grossmayer wanting to re
pave into it. As the matter will in all
probability undergo judicial investiga
tion, we Hhall not give the particulars
or the various rumors afloat in regard to
the difficulty.- Columbus Sun , 2 d inst.

Deatll ol' fSmrraon Foote.
It becomes our painful duty to an
nounce the death of Emerson Foote,Esq ,
Superintendent of the Central Rail Road
>vho died of yellow fever at nine o’clock
hist night, at the residence of R. R.
Cnyler, Esq.
Mr. Foote was a native of Springfield
Mass. Previous to his coining to Geor
gia, some twelve years since, he had
the superintendancy of several important
roads at the North, and had acquired a
reputation for practical knoweldge,
scientific attainments and administra
tive talent, such as few men possess.
About the year 1846 he took charge
of the Macon and Western Railroad,
then in a most prostrate condition, but
which, under his management, soon be
came one of the most prosperous roads in
the South. During his connection with
•he Macon and Western Road,Mr. F. ie
sided in Macon,where He was universal
ly esteemed and respected,
In September, 1857, he was appointed
to the superintendency of the Central
Railroad, which position he filled with
credit to himself, profit to the Company
and satisfaction to the public. During
his brief residence here,he had won the
respect and esteem of our public, and
had made many warm personal friends,
who will deeply deplore his untimely
death.
In the death of Emerson Foote, the
Central Rail Road loses a chief officer
whose place it will be difficult to supply,
and our community an intelligent, use
ful and exemplary citizen. — Sav. News,
Ist inst.
The Storm.— On Saturday night last
we were visited with a violent storm of
wind, rain, thunder and lightniug,
which continued from twilight until
morning. About day-break on Sunday
the storm raged fiercest; aud within
the recollection of the oldest inhabitant,
a harder rain has never fallen.—A few
miles from the village we learn that a
great quantity of hail fell, and that
many fowls were killed; also that pump
kins weighing from twenty to thirty
pounds were “rens in twain”. Since
that time it has been quite cool, and we
would not be surprised to hear of frost
in some parts of the State. — Barnwell (S.
C.) Sentinel,2d inst.
President Buchanan is thus photo
graphed by the editor of the Lancaster
Express “ The President reached home
very quietly. Arriving at Columbia,
he met a country friend there, with a
plain and somewhat worse-for-the-wcar
vehicle, with whom ho rode down to
I Wheatland—no one along the road sus
pecting that it contained the President
of the United States, the incumbent of
the highest office in the world! The
! fact of his arrival was known to very
few of our citizens. What a contrast
! between this quiet visit of the Presi
dent to his home, and the ostentatious
displays which wait upon the crowned
heads of Europe, under similar circum |
stances!” Mr. Buchanan has since re-:
turned to the White House.
Melancholy Affair. — The Chcraw
Gazette says:
We understand that on Thursday
night last two gentlemen, brothers, the
one from Beaufort aud the other from:
an adjoining District, came up the rail- j
road to Dove’s Station, on their way toj
consult Dr. Hale, of Darlington. It.
appears they wero both afflicted with
cancer in the eye, and strange to say,
the disease appeared in both about the
same time, and in the same eye of each.
These cancers were of long standing, I
tbe afflicted eye of both was eaten out.
They had the best medical advice with-,
in their reach, but without benefit. In
their extremity they had heard of Dr. |
Hale’s fame as a cancer doctor, and as a j
last hope hall sought his services. On
Saturday, the next day after their arri-!
val,.one of the brothers fell dead on the
floor, and on Monday following the
other died suddenly. We are gratified!
to learn these unfortunates received I
the kindest attention in their last hours, [
and were decently committed to their
last resting place. We have not learned |
their names.
I Fire.— A fire broke out last night be- I
I ween 12 and 1 o'clock in the Machine :
jshop and Foundry establishment of
Mr. C. Werner, at the corner of State
and Cumberland streets. The interior
of the building was entirely consumed,
leaving nothing standing hut the baie
wulls, with the valuable stock of ma
chines, patterns, &c. The aflmes spread
westward to the grocery store ot Mr. j
B. H. Myer, at the North-west corner j
of the above streets, where it was ar- j
rested by the activity of the firemen.

It? Prof. Wood, 314 Broad
w«y, is ruining the Hair Dye trade. People
will not use dyes when a natural restoration to
the original color of the hair can be produced by
natural remedies. Dyes are artificial agents,
and dangerous in their application, but WOOD’S j
is a healthy stimulant, and causes:
a healthy growth. A giowth of gray hair on a.
young person’s head is unnatural, and to apply I
a coloring fluid produces au unnatural result;
the color is changed, to be sure, but not through j
the roots of the hair. ladies, do you see that 1
geranium plant in the window yonder? how yel
low and faded it looks ? It is alive and growing;
yet where is the beautiful, rich, dark green that
belongs to it? Godc. You can color those leaves
by an external application of chemicals, but
they will not remain colored. Do you desire to
do it naturally ? Make a solution of guano water,
apply it to the roots, and the plant will take it
up into the system, and then you will see a rich
green, permanent hue. Professor Wood’s Hair
Tonic works on the same principle. The roots
of the hair drink up that application, aud high
health and beauty result.

Solved :~DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter- .
rore, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack oi
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain 1
or disability arisingfrom the unnaturalcoudition ■
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev- j
ory.member with the source of sensation, mo-|
tion and thought—derives immediate bene H,
from the use of this Cordial, which atoncecalttf, j
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous i
! organization.
| Females who have tried it arc unamraoa in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
j woman has ever received from the hands of
i medical men. . 1
Morse’s Invigorating Khxir has a direct, im
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite
. While it renews the strength of the digestive
powers it creates a desire for the solid material
which is to be subjected to their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en-
I joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of | j
beneficial effects are not confined to cither!
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the a.liug;
j wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn I
; man of business, the victim of nervous depres-|
sion, the individual suffering from general de j
bility or from the weakness of a single organ j
willall find immediate and permanent relief from j
the use of this incomparable renovator. To j
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it J
will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard i
against that terrible malady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- «
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach «
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The .
| Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
; lerence to the causes, and will not only remove '
| the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- 1
stitution .... ,1

This invaluable medicine is unfailing in the
cure of all those painful and dangerous diseases
to which the female constitution is subject. It j
moderates all excess and removes all obstruc- j
i tious, and a speedy cure may be relied on.

" Cure the Liver.—There is
, an article selliug throughout the country that ;
has attained the widest celebrity ever known as<(|
! a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
I (‘nee to I)R. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, OR
j LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures ul
j most too great to believe, were it not for the un-
I doubted evidence that accompany the teslimo
| nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
| for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility
that so often bailies the skill of our most emin; nt
! physicians.
Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of tbe
! eminent physicians of New York, and it is said, j
| most of his cases were treated with the Invigo
; | rator with such invariable success that he has
s | been induced to offer it as a family medicine, and
i let the world have the benefit of his discovery.
,1 if those who are troubled with debility, head
s ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, will try
! a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
! bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—
gif’A Great Medicine for
Females.—Hundreds of stimulants have been
invented and sold, purporting to be specific in
l the various diseases and derangements to which
the delicate form of woman render her subject.
The result of all these stimulants has been to
impart momentary activity to the nervous system ,
and false vigor to the muscles; but this relief
has been succeeded by a depression and pros
tration greater than before ; and the repeated
j attempts of invalids to build themselves up by
1 these false remedies , have finally ended in de
. stroying what little vital < rganization was left.
But in using BCERHAVE’S HOLLAND BITTERS,
' you will find no such disastrous results. It is a
purely vegetable compound, prepared on strictly
cientific principles, after the manner of the cel- 1
ebrated Holland Professor, Bikrhavr. Under;
- its influence, every nerve and muscle receives;
• new strength and vigor, appetite and sleep re-;
1 turn, and finally, perfect health. See advertise- J
ment in another column. sep29-d6*cl J
