[FOR THE TIMES A.ND SENTINEL.]
Decatur, Ga., May 23, 1853.
Messrs. Editors : I noticed in your paper of the 10th
jnst., a communication from a Baker county Democrat,
suggesting: me as a candidate for Congress from this
district, and having received some private communica
tions from other portions of the district to the same
effect, you will please permit me, through the medium
of your paper, to say to my friends that I cannot be
come a candidate. 1 feel highly complimented by their
partiality, and if I had nothing more to prevent my en
listing in the public service than the strong repugnance
I entertain for such service, would make an effort to
meet their wishes, however much 1 might doubt my ca
pacity to do credit to the high position. But I have
private duties incumbent upon me of a nature too sacred
to be neglected, and that congressional life would ut
terly place beyond my power to discharge.
Without being more explicit, my friends will receive
this as sufficient, and dismiss me from their considera
tion in the matter. I beg they will, however, retain the
sense of my profound gratitude for their kind wishes
and intention.
I am, very respectfully, yours,
CEIAS. J. MONNERLYN.
[FOR the times and SENTINEL. ]
Our political “Patron” tends to abaudon principle, (that
Is if he is a Democrat, and ho writes like one.) The
Democratic pr< ss of Montgomery is complained of by Pat
ron as making desperate efforts to get out an opposition to
Capt. Abercrombie, who boasts of Whig consistency of 30
years’ standing. Sir, if Patron be a Democrat, what sort
of consistency can he boast of ? Sir, I hold that the Dem
ocratic press of Montgomery is consistent with itself, and
the principles it advocateg, in not only trying, but in bring
ing out opposition to Capt. A., in bringing out a candidate
that will reflect its seniimeuts and that of the Democratic
party, and a man too that will sustain our present admin
istration. Sir, the Democratic press at Montgomery
proves its consistency by its integrity for principle and its
fidelity to honor ; truth is truth, and principle is principle ;
truth crushed to earth will rise again—the eternal years of
God are hers—so sings the poet. May I not add, princi
ple orushed to earth will rise again to re-assurne her
throne, and hurl traitors to the lowest depths of political
obscurity. Patron then turns whig orator as it were, and
seems to implore whigs to be reconciled to Capt. A.; asks
many questions and then answers them to suit himself.
Patron will pardon me while I ask him a few. Did you
vote for Col. Cochran two years ago? If so, were you right
then, and that against this same big Captain, and that
without any change in him or Col. Cochran up to date ?
If you were right then you must be wrong now: unless it
is right to right about face. The big Captain says he has
not changed for thirty years. I do not think he lias, for
he started wrong, in iny judgment, then,and has held his
own remarkably well. When hesays he has not changed,
Patron would not be safe in telling him he had. Methiuks
the big Captain would feel for Patron’s throat or maul him
some. The question naturally arises—what has Capt. A.
done to please Democrats, or what principle has he sur
rendered, or what principle does he hold in oommon with
them? Echo answers none; Capt. A., answers none.—
True, he did not go lor Gen. Scott; many W bigs good
and true did the same. Did he go for Piecoe? No. It
seems to me, sir, that there would be uo consistency or
reason in the conduct of the Democratic party were they
to run the old Captain. They war for principles, not men.
That Capt. A. will sustain the administration of the pres
ent chief magistrate no sane man will, for one moment,
believe. Therefore, if he has opposition, I hope it will
oome from the Democratic ranks, that Gen. Pierce’s ad
ministration may be sustained. Patron assumes a spirit
of dictation to his party. All true Democrats think for
themselves, and will act accordingly. He also assumes to
kuow who are in a hurry for preferment. I think he is
right in his allusion to the talented gentleman, out would
it not be more kind in him to have given the talented gen
tleman time to have gracefully retired ? D>es not Patron
seem to say to him, you had better retire, or you have
leave to do that same ? Sir, I hold that if Patron votes for
a Whig of thirty years’ standing from policy or otherwise,
when he might vote for a Democrat, be not only deserts
Democratic principles, but stultifies his own act and that
of his own party. In short, if Patron voted for Col. Coch
ran two years ago, and would, under any circumstances,
vote against a Southern Rights man now, he cannot be
true to himself, his party or his country now, or he was
not then. I leave him in a predicament.

Gubernatorial—-Whig State Convention. —We
learn from direct and reliab'e authority from Hunts
ville, that Senator Clemons will not, as has been an
nounced, take the field for the office of Governor. Ilia
health renders all exertion, at the present moment, ut
terly impossible.— Ala. Journal,
The city of Bremen is about to send a block of Ger

Tucker, the Engineer of tho ill-fated train at Nor
walk, has been admitted to bail in the sum of $5,000.
A nice question. —The whig papers appeal to
be divided in opinion upon this question—wheth
er the whig party has been rendered unpopular
by the principles it cherishes, or, on the contra
ry, whether the conduct of the party has not
made its principles odious to the country ? Tho
New York Tribune maintains the truth of tho
latter proposition, and says that it has no doubt
that the destruction of the party would be im
mediately followed by the triumph of the prin
ciples embraced in its creed.
Good arguments can be adduced to prove
either branch of the proposition. The party
has been guilty of so many rascalities as to in
jure its influence in behall of its principles, while
the latter have been of such a character as to
stand a great deal in the way of the success of
the organization. It is difficult to say which
has been the greater element of woakuess.

Progress of the Brunswick Road. — A friend has
this morning shown us a letier received from a
genlleman iu Brunswick, formerly of this place,
from which we make the following extract :
“The Railroad company a--e laying down the
iron as fast as possible. Three hundred hands
are at work on the road. They have some five
hundred hands on the Canal, and the yvork will be
completed by the first of June. Three more car

[From the Constitutionalist)
LaGraxgk. May 10. 1853.
Mr. Editor :—A fire broke out in this town
between 1 and 2 o’clock this morning. It was
first discovered iu the kitchen attached to the
Union Hotel, owned and occupied by Messrs.
Bradfield &. Raglin. It soon communicated
to the Hotel and there being a number of board
ers in the house, caused a scene of consid r
able bustle, and I am sorry to say that but little
was saved excepting the baggage of the board
ers. No insurance.
Theflamessooncommunicated down through
the whole range of buildings, (which were of
wood,) destroying the entire south side if the
Public Square. The remaining bufl'erers were
as follows :
Law office, occupied by B. H. Bigham, Esq.
Next came the Bookstore of Mr Robert Rich
ards ; stock about B*7 0J0; insurance ¥3,000.
in the Mutual office. Then came a Bakery
and Grocery, kept by .Mr Niramet; next was
a watchmaker; next was the dry goods store
kept by Mr. Lewis Hines. The sock ot goods
were principally saved, but much damaged
by the hasty removal, as they were compelled
to be tumb ed out in the shortest possible man
ner. MrKichards received considerable dam
age to his stock of books, which, 1 think, will
be covered by his insurance,
I can learn ot no other insurances on the
buildings except the Hote. It belonged to
Bingham & Culbertson.
It is supposed to bi the work of an incendiary,
as tha fire was all out when .Mr Raglin went
to bed—he having examined the premises, and
there being two or three unsuccessful attempts
pievio.is. This being court week, the whole
court yard is strewed with the wreck saved,
and the owners endeavoring to assort and car
ry offthe r property 7 .
The following army officers, tho Republic
says, have been ordered upon the Pacific Rail

LATER FROM VERA CRUZ
REVOLT AMONG THE NATIONAL GUARDS.
Fists Persons Killed !!
Ibe Steamship Texas arrived at 1 o’clock
j P. M. yesterday, bringing tiie following highly
’ important news:
! On the morning of the arrival of the steamship
| Texas, at \ era Cruz, on the 17th instant, a rev
olution broke out in the city, amongst the Na
tional guards, caused by an order from the city
of Mexico to incorporate the National Guards
into the Troops of the Line. The Revolution
lasted three days, during which time most of the
| business of the city was suspended. The regu
| lar troops had possession of the Forts Concep
j cion and Santiago, and the National Guards had
; possession of the streets and gates of the city.
; A brisk firing was kept up during the three days,
■ and was only ended by the entrance of regular
troops from the city of Jalapa, who took pris
oners about fifty of the Nationals, after which
(Friday) all became quiet, and business was re
sumed. About fifty of the Nationals were killed
and many wounded during the engagement.
We have numbers of the Eco del Cominer
cio of the 20th, 21st and 22d, but find in them
no account of the origin and commencement
of the Revolution on the 17th. We append
memoranda which we translate and condense,
and which relate to the incidents of the 18th
and the following days :
Wednesday, May 18, 10 1-2 o’clock, A. M.
—No change in the situation of the city, as we
described it in our last; issue. Guns fired ail
night, well maintained on both sides, until day
break, when it stopped, as if by common con
sent that the families should have time to pro
vide themselves with food. The suspension of
hostilities lasted till nine o’clock, when the firing
was resumed.
The Nationals have spent the night in the
Plaza, and hold their headquarters in the Puerta
Nuevay Caluarte de-San Javiex.
The Government troops were reinforced with
seventy men from the Castle, who were protec
ted in their landing by the steamer Estailo de
Mejico.
The ayuntamiento met to hoar the petitions
of the people, and appointed a committee to
present them to the Chief of the State.
The committee returned amidst the vims of
the multitude. For a moment we thought that
all was terminated, but the Guard will not ac
cept the conditions imposed by the Government,
which is to submit to obey the authorities. At
eleven the firing commenced again.
It is said that the Nationals are going to at
tack the line of Government troops from both
sides of the city at once. We are assured that
! at least forty persons have been killed on both
sides.
It is impossible to go out without danger of
being wounded by a bullet.
At 2 o’clock, another deputation left the city
for the headquarters, and for a short time the
firing fcased. A parley took place, and the
Government seemed to grant some guaranties,
which would probably have restored order, when
the malcontents renewed their fire against the
points occupied by the forces of the Govern
ment.
Thursday, May 19.—Disorder continued as
on the preceding day, but the fire was not so
well sustained on the part of the revolutionists,
because many had retired to their homes, and
others left the city.
At 5 o’clock in the evening, a proclamation
was published from the Governor, calling upon
the merchants and members of the other clas
ses of society interested in the restoration of
order, to meet, with their arms, at the Municip
al Palace, where they could concert with the dis
positions of the military authorities, protect the
interests of the citizens, and cause the alarm to
cease.
The Governor of the State has assured the For
eign Consuls residing in this city, that, in case of
an attack upon any national or foreign houses of
commerce, a column of the Government troops
would be ready to prevent injury to tho property of
the citizens.
Nine of the insurgents were taken prisoners in
the Rutnbo de los Poj itos by a body of cavalry, and
imprisoned.
Forces have been organized in the Palace, com
posed of merchants and people of all trades and oc
cupations, known as honorable men, w ho have pre
sented themselves to co-operate in restoring tran
quility. These forces are to cover some points in
the centre ot the city, and others will w atch along
the streets.
The firing bis ceased, ami every thiDg leads to
the belief t hat the disorder is over.
The Eco says that, on the 20th, perfect peace
and tranquility were restored—things had .resumed
their former aspect, and there was no fear of any
further difficulty.
The Eco of the 2Jd, says, that order was still un
disturbed, and nothing was heard but congratula
tions on the return of tranquility. The battalion
of Tres Villas and the 4th iight infantry, arrived
fiom Jalapa, and were stationed as guards at the
Mexico and Nuevo gates, as usual. Another large
battalion was slationed in the palace.
The 2d light infantry, which received the order
of marching to Vera Cruz, being on the way from
Jalapa to Orizaba, was to arrive on the 22 i inst.
As soon as the Supreme Government received
i the news of what had occurred in Vera Cruz, two
| thousand veteran troops were sent, with lourtecn
pieces of arillery. At the last dates they had
reached Puebla.
Later from Havana—Arrival of Gen. Arista—News j
from Mexico.

1 o Dr. J. C. Ayer, &c..
Dear Sir: Wo have the pleasure to report on your ship
ment of Cherry Pectoral to our house, the whole quantity
sold, and a pressing demand for more, which must await
the arrival of further supplies. Its success in curing diseases
of the lungs, and its consequent notoriety, has excelled any
medicine ever used in this country. Most of our remedies
hero are imported from England, and some of them are
’ rich and valuable ; but no product of medical skill from that
! or any other quarter has ever won so fully the confidence of
our population as this beautiful preparation of yours.
The article has attracted particular attention among our
most distinguished citizens, irom tho fact that General Bai
nes, President of the Republic, and the highest officer in

The Beat Female Medicine Known.
The peculiar maladies lo which iemaies are .-übject,commonly
produce great bodily exhaustion, accompanied by a depressed
and often gloomy state ol mind. As the system declines in
strength, there ba loss of nervous power, and this very naturally
impairs the energy of the mind and disturbs the equanimity of
the temper. Every candid woman who has suffered from lemale
complaints will admit this lobe the mournful truth. Now, to
obtain relief, ii is only necessary to stop the tendency to deple
tion and debility. This is done by renewing that fountain of
health and strength, the Blood, and no medicine accomplishes
this desirable result so speedily and complete as w ‘Dr. Guy soil’s
Improved Extract ol Yellow Dock and b'arsaparilla.”
Ladies ol pale complexion and consumptive habits, and such

My wife has been suffering for the space of nearly five years
with Scrofula aud Cancer, which, 1 think, found iu origin In the
derangements of the .*y-tern peculiar to her ee>:, while In the
mean time *he was under the care of the most eminent Physi
cians in this section ot country, without deriving any material aid
from their prescriptions.
Upon tho recommendation of Dr. Cockos, one of onr physi
cian?, who had seen the medicine used with happy effect, i ob
tained of your Agents here. “A/easr*. Bice tc McFarland,’* one
bottle of “Dr. Guy sot r Extract ot Yellow Dock and Sarsapa
rilla,” and as my wife found relief from that b ttle, I bought some
six bottles, which she has taken with the most astonishing bene
fit, for I am pleased to say it has entirely cured her, lor sue has
entirely recovered from her illness, and the Scrofula and Cancer
are cured sound and well. Accept my gratitude.

Mr. John D. Park—Dear Hr: Dr. Guysott’s Yellow Dock and

A Mr. 8. P. Strickland hasjust informed me that one of his chil

the use of only one bottle. He bad tried almost every thing that
the Doctors had prescribed, but all of no avail, as the child con
tinued getting worse. The sores are now alt healed up and tin
child apparently well, which isjustly ascribed to the use of tho
Yellow Dock aud Sarsaparilla, [signed] Yours, truly,

IMPROVED AND ENDARG-ED HIS
ACCOMMODATI OXB,
in such a manner as enables him to say that he can accommodate
all whomHy tavor him with a visit, and render their stay agreea
ble and *ji:i’fnctory hi every respect. It inattero not whether the
traveler Liu search of Lean h, amusoment—either or bo in—thu

Niagara, fcui there is plenty and to spare tor the ablution* oi any
nurol.ei ot Bathers trot engaged in caching lor Gas V\ oiks, or

who have here’ ofore found the Chalybeate, the proprietor i rusts
that his frieiuiswiil find no sea*city of that t.ereteury element of
navigation. While he will have oceans of waterier his temjier
a -ce lrieudo, he will remember to keep a good supply ot Vv wucs
for those who uie.tr a spirit level to a water course, leal too gieat
;i tendency to Hydropathy might cause them to be regarded as
“soakers.’ J:> n word, the proprietor has been crowded every
season since lie has bad chaise of the Springs; and as Le sveU
satisfied that all who have called on him will give good leport,
j send their friends.and call aga n when they pass this way, he is
i determined to leave nothing undone to ke*. p bis place “rtgiii tide
