(Bating Dispute!]. AUGUSTA, GEO. Friday l.vrnlnv, Junr 3, 1559. Largest Dally Circulation In Ilic City: Largest Dally Circulation l« I*" s State ! The Ignoring of Mr. Buchanan. The Athens Banner takes us to task for a remark made in our columns some weeks since, to the effect that in the various political meetings held in Gcor gia up to that time, Mr. Buchanan had been ignored, and disputes our asser tion that resolutions laudatory of the administration, usual at such meetings, were omitted. After searching for near ly a month to find ground for contra dicting our remark, the Banner, at length, has summarily referred to the proceedings of Democratic meetings throughout the State for proof of the falsity of our assertion, but notwith standing this plenitude of proof, is able, out of the ninety county meet ings which have been held, to point to only two instances, both in the sixth district, in which resolutions approba tory of Mr. Buchanan and his adminis tration have been adopted. One of these is the county of Clark where, as is well known, rests one leg of the Presidential chair. The other is the county of Walton, of whose meeting if it had been held, we have not seen the account, and we doubt if the Ban ner had at the time of the publication of our article. Clark county does up its admiration of the President in two lines and a half. “In Walton,’ gays the Banner, “ more time is devoted to an endorsement of Democratic prin ciples, and of the President who ad hered so faithfully,” &c., &c. Accord ingly the Walton folks nearly double the Clark county people in the intensi ty of their admiration of the President —they expand to the enormous extent of four lines and a half ! And that is all which the Banner, after a month’s diligent search, can find to prove our assertion unfounded. The Banner ma jestically refers us to the Democratic meetings throughout the State. We are not going to take the trouble to hunt over piles of papers to prove what is well known to everybody, that the cus tom of passing resolutions lauding the President, usual at all political meet ings of any pretensions, for whatever purpose convened, has been omitted, but without moving from our chair we find among the old exchanges under our table, accounts of several meetings in which Mr. Buchanan’s name is not mentioned, and not one in which it is. So much for the Banner s reference.— With anything like diligent search we venture to engage to find twenty in which the President is ignored to offset every one by which the fact of his ex istence is recognized. But “the game is not worth the candle.” Just at this moment we happen to recollect the proceedings of the meet ing of the Democracy in Musco gee county. What does the Banner think of that? They, out of their abundant “charity,” passed Mr. Buch anan by in silence; and though it is true, they refused to pass the following resolution and another similar, offeied by as true Democrats as the editor of the Banner , they applied no salve in the shape of a complimentary resolution to the wound which it inflicted. Resolved, That the administration of James Buchanan, from its inception to the present date, has been a miserable and ridiculous failure, and that if con tinued upon the same line of policy it will assuredly destroy the organization known as the Democratic paity and most probably the American Union. We have thus followed the Banner s “reference,” and the above is the result. The Banner chooses to call us “neu tral we utterly despair of making some people understand that the Dis patch is not neutral. We again, and for the hundreth time, declare that wedes pise neutrality. No man has a right to be neutral when questions affecting the welfare of himself, his country, his State or his family are to be decided.— We find ourselves quoted as neutral by editors on both sides when it serves their purposes" to consider us so, by the same editors we are quoted as partizan, when thai turn strves their purpose. If they persist in misunderstanding the differ ence between neutrality and independ ence, and continue to place us in a false M position, they will find ours an “armed neutrality,” ready to do battle with all comers. However much we may seem to some of them to favor Whigery, we shall always discourage useless and factious opposition. However much we may seem to others to he Democrat ic, we shall never smoke a Cobb pipe. Now, as the editor of the Banner, in his fit of hysterics at our disrespect to wards Mr. Buchanan, whom he seems to have taken under his especial proiec tion, has used some liberties with us we would like to be permitted the free dom of asking, whether he, himself, ii a Buchanan man ? Is he your choice foi President, or is it Douglas, or Hammond or Lane, or Hunter, or Wise, or who is it ? Over which division of the Demo cratic host will the Athens Banner wave ? The editor of the Columbus Comer Stone, a distinguished advocate of Free Trade, is likely to get into trouble for attempting to carry out his principles. He has been summoned before the City Authorities for selling “garding sass,” before market hours. He avows a de termination to resist the odious tariff to the last extremity. He s right. * Mr. E. H. Grant, a merchant of Montgomery, Ala., was dangerously stabbed by Mr. F. A. Goodwin onTues day last. The affray grew out of the settlement of some business matters. Goodwin has been arrested. Judge Stephens. The appointment of Linton Stephens, Esq., to a seat ou the bench of the Su preme Court of Georgia, seems to cre ate some dissatisfaction. We speak from personal knowledge, when we say that it is impossible to find in the limits of the State a man better qualified for the position, both in legal attainments and in acute aud discriminating judg ment. Our opinion will be confirmed by every member of the bar who has come in contaot with him in the way of busi. ness. • Cnllionu Court. The editor of the Baiubridgo Argus has been spending several days at Mor gan, during the recent session of the Superior Court of Calhoun county.— He says that Joseph P- Phillips, charged witli burning the jail of that county, was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment at hard labor in the Pen * itentiary for life. Morgan contains about three hundred inhabitants; has a male and female academy well conducted aud in a flour ishing condition ; is noted for its excel lent water and permanent good health. It is situated conveniently to the South Western Railroad and the farming inte rests of the county, and, all together, is a very desirable viliage. Where's that Tar ?—We understand says the Montgomery Mail, that De Riviere, the swindler, is at Aiken, S. C., and that at Augusta, lately, in company with a couple of loose Boston women, (of course, none but unchaste women would associate with him,) he was “cut ting up” very largely. Won’t the gen tleman “try It on” a little in Columbus or Montgomery ? Will the Mail correct the above so far as Augusta is concerned. De Riviere would be as shy of “cutting up” here, 1 as in Columbus or Montgomery.—E». Dis. Georgia Item*. We are pained to have to announce 1 the death of Seth C. Stevens, of Baker county, who died in Albany Ga.,on Tues day night last. He was a native of New Hampshire, but was a citizen of Georgia for the last twenty five years. The amount of taxable property in the town of Albany, according to a late assessment is $1,713,071. Sloan charged with the murder of the Captain of the Bark E. A. Rawlins has been convicted of manslaughter. * There will be a meeting at Albany, on the 11th to receive the report of the delegates to the late Brunswick meet ing, and to determine the policy to adopt in connecting Albany with the seaboard by railway. At the present term of the Superior Court in Columbus the following parties have been elected to serve in Milledge ville for the terms specified : David Smi ley, for selling cotton, the receipts for which he took from a negro—five years. Stephen Outlaw, for forgery—three years. John O’Brien, for larceny from the house—three years. $ 36,000, nett earnings of the State j Road, for May, has been sent to the Treasury. The Pendleton Messenger has heen dig. continued, and will be resumed under a new name at the new and flourishing town of Hartwell, Ga. The late cold nights are reported to have injured the growth of cotton in many portions of the country. Remedy for Scarlet Fever. —A lady, who has had some experience in the treatment of Scarlet fever, and seen the following remedy used with never faiiiug effect, asks us to publish it for the benefit of our readers. It is as fol- \ lows : , “Immediately on the first symptoms of scarlet fever, which is sore throat, give a fml dose of jalap, to an adult 60, 1 70 or 80 grains ; at night give strong j I red pepper tea, from a tea cup full to a pint, according to age and violence of i- symptoms ; the next day give a small dose of jalap, say half the quantity giv en the day before, continue the pepper 3 tea at night, on the third day, if there e is any soreness remaining in the throat s givpadose of salts, which will general . ly effect a cure ; the dose must of course be regulated according to the age of the patient." r The above remedy was used with I I years ago. by Ed ward Chaplin, who then , furnished it to the public. Uulnry A Pensacola Kn II road The Columbus Sun publishes the fol ! lowing communication in regard to con necting Quincy, Fla., with Pensacola, l Fla., by Railroad : k Greenwood, Fla., May 28. ’59. I We had quite a spirited Rail Road meeting to day. There were present 1 delegates from St. Johns and Pensacola. - The object of the meeting was to take steps to meet the east end of the St. j Johns Road, at Quincy, and continue it on to Pensacola. All the necessary ar rangements were made for subscriptions, to secure a charter, and get the grant of : lands made by Congress tor Rail Road s, purposes in our State. e .

The number of emigrants 3 arrived at this port during the week r ending the 18th inst , was 7.128. mak ing a total of 22.329 since the erm mencement of the year. The arrival of 1.000 persons a day is something that has not often been since the best months of year before last The rush , of the past week may be partly attrib uted to the recent favorable weather, but all our foreign advices warrant the belief that it is the beginning of a gen eral stampede to this country, like that which occurred in the litwh times pre vious to the great revulsion. The Eu ! ropean war will contribute largely to swell the tide of emigration hitherward. ! A • 1 ■ Journal of Commerce A Grain of Gold.—Edward Everett ia the most elegant rhetorician in Ameri ca. Here is a little allegory taken from one of his agricultural speeches. Is it not a gem ? Drop a grain of California gold in the ground and there it will lie unchanged to the end of time. The clods on which it falls aic not more cold and lifeless.— Drop a grain of our blessed gold into the ground, and lo ! a mystery. In a ' few d tys it softens—it' swells—it shoots i upwards—it is a living thing. It is yel low itself, but it sends up an emerald green.through the soil—it expands to a vigorous stalk —revels in the sunshine ! —itself more glorious than Solomon in , its broad, fluttering, leafy robes, whose sound, as the west wind whispers thro' them, falls as pleasantly on the hus bandman’s ear, as the rustic of his sweetheart’s garment: still towers aloft, spins its verdant Fkeins of vegetable floss, displays its dancing tassels, sur charged with fertilizing dust, and at last ripenslnto two or three magnificent batons like this, (an ear of Indian corn) each of which is studded with hundreds of grains of gold, every one possessing : the same wonderful properties as the parent grain, every oue instinct with the same productive powers. Hiving Bees.—ls not already known to your readers, the following incident may be useful; I threw open my blinds *a few days since, and raise i the window to inhale the pure air and a morning look at the flowers that were in full bloom under ! my windows, when I heard a most un i usual humming of bees. Not seeing any on the flowers, I looked into the air,and just over my head they were in agita ted commotion preparatory to swarm - ing from the hive of a neighbor. On a i fine locust near the door they were soon . settled, but before any effort could be made to hive them they commenced flying and returning to their old hive. 5 Next day they came out again, anil a man who knew something of bees was r sent to hive them. He called for a long , woollen stocking, and drew it on the end or the pole, and placed it where the bees seemed thickest near a tree, as if they had selected it as a place where to light. He held it a few moments, and the stocking was very soon cov ered completely up with the whole sjvarm. A table had been spread with a white cloth and a hive all ready. He laid his pole, or rather stocking of bees upon the table, and then put the hive over,, while he carefully drew out the pole. In an hour or two the bees were all in the hive and placed in the bee house, and in short time more they were at work furnishing their new home.— While they were on the table they “cleaned house,” and dislodged every particle of dust and old matter adhering to their new abode. In two days more another swarm came out of the old hive, and in the same manner the son and females of the family secured, in this simple way. an other fine swarm. The ladies told me, i as I watched their movements they could now do it any time alone.—Corres pondent Farmer’s Journal FUNERAL. NOTICE. The friends and acquaintances of Mr. & Mrs. , J. W.

No battle has been fought. The Austrians had removed their head quarters to Garlasco (a market town of Piedmont), and had withdrawn i from Yircilli, which was now occupied by the allied French and Sardinian forces. A decisive action between the armies | was daily expected. Many of the Austrian ports had been blockaded by the French squadron. Later intelligence from India had been received ; and it was announced . that the merciless Tantia Topee had • been tried and hanged. TniKD DISPATCH. Commercial News.
