tiffretong Dispatcl). t lr« Hlallon In tbe Cllyl I,nvir«*> ••ally Circulation l» thf State ! GEO. Saturday Kvml>i(r, May l."*, IHI»1». A Word for tl»e Persecuted. In our article, the other day, upon the ignoring of Mr. Buchanan by the Georgia Democracy, we expressed the opinion that he had been rather hardly used, and also manifested a little wil lingness to take up the cudgel for him So we will say a word in his defence against holding him alone accountable for the extravagant expenses of his ad ministration. Poor old fellow, he seems to have but few friends, and those rath er lukewarm. We know it is the fashion for the oats to denounce every President for his extravagance. V> e har ea\i\ id lecol lection of Ogle, and the gold spoons excitement against Mr. \an Ik ecx. — We took part in that tight, and were as bitter as anybody against Van. because he had silk curtains to his windows, in stead of osnaburgs, but we were always dubious, as to the reasonableness of the accusation. It seemed to us that if the people, through their representatives,had not justified ar.d supplied the means for extravagance there wotdd have be en none. So with Mr. Buchanan, doubt less he deplores as much as the staun chest patriot can, the knavery which exists in the administration of the Gov j eminent, but we see no way in which j he could have prevented it, except by j the exercise of the odious veto power, which would have been more effectual than the most shameless waste, in aliena ting liis friends, for the wire- workers of the party expected him to belli them rob the people when they put him j into office, and would have been highly indignant at Lis failure in what they ! considered his duty. He has no control over the revenues of the Government, except in conjunction with Congress, and it really is that body of patriots ] who ought to be hold accountable' for extravagant expenditmes. The: party in the majority in Congress ought to hear the blame, hut wej are not so sure that any other party j would have done any better. It is use-j less to attempt to make political capital i out of the expenditures of the Govern ment, they will continue to increase faster than the population of the conn- i try, and the extent of its territory.— j As the country assimilates more and more to the corruptions of older nations,! the number of genteel political vaga bonds will increase. These greedy vam-j pires must live by sucking the blood of j the people, and as long as the people j think it a very pleasant operation, the' President ought not to be blamed for; what he cannot help, and the clamors of those who can’t get a chance to blood -suck ulso, ought not to be heeded. We hope nobody will mistake its fora Buc HANANtTE.hut we disliketo see innocence injured, and will always be ready to say a word in defence of the weak and per j secutcd. We say weal because, though the Democracy is strong, especially : since they are about to reconcile all their schisms, MY. Buchanan himself | is the weakest public man of his party, and their harmony will not enure to his 1 benefit. ■ Small Pox In Selma, Ala. A Montgomery paper stales that two cases of Small Pox had occurred in Sel ma, and that great panic exists in that town. nr The Southern Baptist Convention which has recently been in session in Richmond, Virginia, adjourned on Tries day last, 10th inst., to meet in Savan nah, Georgia, on the Friday before tin second Monday in May, 1801.

By some strange accident Harvey found himself at church one evening. The sermon being over, the preaefftr requested ail who were friendly to re ligion to rise and hold up their right ( hands. The whole audience, apparent ly, were on their feet. After they were seated again, the minister continued : “Now', if there is a single one here 1 who desires to see Satan and liis king dom prosper, he will lisc ar.d hold up his hand.” Harvey, with some difficulty, got toj I an erect position, and said : “Had the vote been less unanimous, j I should have retained my seat: but 1 make it a point of honor never to abandon a friend under adverse circumstances.”! lathe piece t dings of all the Demo cratic meetings iccently held, we have seen no Harvey Jenkins who has been j sincere and bold enough to rise and | hold up his hands for old Buck.

Lord Derby's! friends are taking tbe field wijh great vigor. Mr Roebuck, in his address to his constituents, holds some very plain 1 language. He asks them if they would confide the care of a cotton mill to one who knew nothing about cotton or mar kets or trade? and then asks them whether they think that the care of an i Empire like Great Britain is a much ' easier piece of business than the over sight of a mill-full of spinning jennies?j ;He exhorts the middle classes to edu cate themselves and their children for i the bunntt* of government just as careful-: j ly as they would forany-other business, i The claim of Mrs Cunningham to the j estate of the murdered Dr. Burdell, was] > recently set at rest forever in New York. - It will be remembered that the Surro t gate made a decision against Mrs. Cun ningham, holding that she was not the! widow of Dr. Burdell; from that de-1 i ] cision Mrs. Cunningham appealed to the! ,] Supreme Court The matter has been in court for some time, but no further i steps were taken by Mrs. Cunningham.; On Saturday Charles Edwards, Esq.,! e the Counsel for the heirs, took an or >' | der distressing the appeal, for Want of d appearance on the part of the lady.— j ; This puts a quietus on all the proceed 1 ings, and the lady is once more plain Mrs. Cunningham, and not a doctor's widow.

The click of the hammer is daily heard on her iron sides, workmen being constantly engaged in getting her in readiness for an ocean trip. It was supposed that she is being lengthened from a defect in her | model; hut such is not the case Her ! alterations are confined almost exclu sively to her perfection and strength in i her machinery, which is of peculiar and : beautiful construction. It is expected tlie alterations in her machinery will insure greater speed, and certainly greater strength. Over her an immense derrick has Been erected, for the pur j pose of testing her drafting qualities, | and tests generally appertaining to sea going vessels. Her intended sea trip wiil take place about the middle of . May, and if coming up to the expecta ! tion of her builders, it is said her first [ destination will be to New York.—Bal \ fhnon American. Shockin'*, Scene at ax Execution.— | The Chicago Times, in giving an ac j count of the execution there, on Friday, ; of Michael McNamee, for the murder :of his wife, describes the following painful scene at the gallows : The sheriff. l>y a quick and sudden motion, pulled the cord, the bolts came out, and the trap fell instantly. The wretched man fell, but horrible to re -1 late, the jerk was so severe that the , leather collar broke, and the poor man fell flat down on the stone floor of the prison below. The fall could not have been less than ten feet. Os course the j prisoner was very much bruised and : stunned. No sooner, however, had he touched the floor, than he was raised therefrom by the vigilant officers in at tendance, and this time carried up the stairs. It was some minutes before the rope could be again prepared, and dur ing tlris interval, his sufferings must have been very great. A length, how ever, a running noose was made in the rope, aud the rope itself placed around his neck. Again was the wretched man placed in the proper position on the drop; again was the cap placed over his eyes, and again was the bolt with drawn, and the murderer launched into space below. This time the work was better done. The poor man struggled violently, and swung to and fro for some minutes ; but his struggles grew fainter and fainter, and after ten or twelve minutes, ceased altogether. Another Homicide!— On Saturday Iqat,, at a justice court ground in the kjippr part of this county, one Jesse Pe [rers stabbed and killed a Mr. James West. We learn that Peters and his own son weie fighting, and that West interfered to part them ; whereupon he and Peters got to fighting, and that West had got the better of that fight. But afterwards, Peters came up to him with- life knife drawn, and urged the difficulty-on West, and eventually stab bed him. He died about 10 o’clock Monday morning West was quite a young man, perhaps not over twenty one years old. Once more we say 0 temporal O mores I—Fayetteville Casket. FIJiERAL NOTICE.
