The melody “Old folks at Home ” has become very pop ular. The last number of Zioo’s Herald contains the fol lowing ne%v version,entitled The Blest ones at Home. Away on the banks of life’s bright river, Far, far away— There will my heart be turning ever, There’s where the blest ones stay ; All through this vale of sin and sorrow Sadly I roam, Still longing for the dawn of the morrow And for the blest or.e3at home. All without is dark and dreary, Every where I roam, O, brothers, how the heart grows weary, Sighing for the blest ones at home. Through all earth's sunny scenes I wandered In youth’s gay morn ; How many precious hours I’ve squandered, How many mercies scorned ; When seeking tin’s delusive pleasures, Wretched was I, Bat now my heart has found a treasure There with the ble3t ones on high. All without is dark, &<?. ()ne hour there is forever bringing Memories of love; ’Twas when rr.y sighs were changed to singing Os the blest ones above. W hen shall I see my Saviour reigning On his white throne ? When will be hushed my heart’s complaining There with the blest ones at home ? All till then is dark and dreary Every where I roam, O, brothers, how the heart grows weary Longing for the blest ones at home. J i f sT seventeen.

Justice Ilaliburton is out with anew book, bearing the above title. Here is a sample of his humor that has reference to a late American Minister at the Court of Great Britain. The scene is an after dinner one at that gentleman’s house. Slick is describing bis part in the en tertainment: “Lord Dunk Peterborough, or some such name, sat alongside of me, and took to praisin’ our great nation at a great pace, it fairly took me in at first, I didn’t see his drift ; it was to draw me out, and set me a boastin’ and a brag gin’ 1 do suppose. And I fell into the trap be fore 1 know’d it. “Alter trottin’ me round a bit, sais he, ‘Your minister is a worthy representative of your glo rious country. He is a scholar and a gentle man. One ofhis predecessors did nothing but compare. If you siiowed him a pack of hounds, they were nothing to what hundreds had in Virginia and the Southern States. If a fine tree.it was a mere walking stick to an Ameri can one. If a winning race horse, he had half a dozen that would, as he expressed it, waik away from him like nothing; and go on. Well, there was another who could talk of nothing but satinettes, coarse cotton, the slave trade, and what he used to call New England domes tics. It is refreshing to find our nation so well represented.” “Alt this was said as civil as you please, you could not find fault in his manner a bit; still I can’t sav I quite liked it. Ik ew there was some truth it: it ; but how little or how much I couldn’t tell, not bein’ much of a scholar.— Thinks I to myself, I’m a man more used to giv in’ than takin’ pokes, and never could keep em’ long without returnin’ them with interest. So go on, I’ll see what you are about, and then I rather guess I can take mv part with you. “Sais lie, ‘l’m told his Latin is very pure.’ “ ‘lt’s generally allowed there can’t be no bet ter,’ sais I,‘there is nobody’ to Cambridge—our Cambridge I mean—that can hold a candle to him.’ “ ‘lt’s fully equal,’ sais he, ‘to the generality of the monastic Latin of the middle ages.’ “I was a drift here: I didn’t like the expres sion of his eye—it looked quizzical; and l must say, when lamed subjects come on the carpet, I do feel a little grain streaked, for fear I shall have to confess ignorance, or have to talk and make a fool of myself. Thinks I to myself, if his Latin is good, why didn’t he say it was as good as what the Latins spoke or wrote, and not stop half way at what minister used, lam sure, to call the dark ages? How ever, I’ll look quizzical too, and put my best foot out. “ ‘As good as that of the middle ages V sais I; ‘why, that’s not saying much for it either. Aint he a middle aged man himself ? and hasn’t he been at it alt his life?’ ; • “ ‘Well, Slick, says he, ‘that’s uncommon good ; that’s one of the best things I have heard for a long time, and said so innocently too, as if you really meant it Capital, by Jove 1 Come, 1 like that amazingly.’ “Thinks 1 to myself, it’s more than I do, then, for 1 didn’t understand you, and I don’t know the meanin’ of what I said myself. But I’ll pay you offbitneby, Master Dunk—see if I don’t. “Sais he, lowerin’ his voice, confidential like, ‘whata pity it is that he is Unitarian!” “Now, thinks 1, mv boy, I’ve got you off dead languages in upon livin’ subjects, I’ll play with you as a cat does with a mouse. “‘He wouldn’t be an honest man, if he wasn’t,’ sais I; “he’d he beneath contempt.’ “ ‘Well,’ sais he, ‘I never argue about religion, and will therefore not pursue the subject far ther; but it creates a great prejudice here.’ “ ‘Religion,’ sais 1. ‘my good friend,’ lookin’ all amazed,‘whv, what in natur* has religion to do with it ? It has neither art nor part in it.’ “Exactly,’ said he, ‘that’s the very point. Peo ple here think a Unitarian little better than an infidel.’ “Then you might,’ sais I, ‘just as well say a Tory was an infidel, or a Whig, or a Protee | tionist, or a Free Trader, or anybody else; i there would he just as much sense in it. I be- I iieve in my heart the English will never under ’ stand us/ “ ‘Pray, may I ask,’ said he, ‘what you call ; a Unitarian ?’ ; “ ‘Sartainly,’ sais I; ‘for when folks go to ar ! gue, they ought first to know what they are talk in’ about; to define their terms, and see they un -1 derstand each other. I’ll tell you in a few words j what a Unitarian is.’ “Just then. Minister speaks up, (and it’s a curi | ous thing, talk of the devil, and he is sure to j heave in sight directly.) ‘Pass the wine, Mr. Slick, j I’ll help myself.’ ‘And push it on, your Excel- I lency,’ sais I; ‘but I never pass wine—it ain’t 1 considered lucky in Slickviilo.’ ‘Phis made a laugh and a divarsion, and I continues: ‘You see, my Lord, our genera! Government is a fed eral one, exercisin’ sartain powers delegated to 1 it by the separate States, which with this excep j tion, are independent sovereignties. Every j State is a unit, and these units fi rm a whole ; | but the rights of the separate States are as sa | cretl as the rights of the government to Wash j ington ; and good patriots everywhere stand j by their own units, and are called Unitarians; • while some are for strengthenin’ the general ! Government, at the expense of the individual sovereignty, and these are called Federalists; and that’s the long and short of the matter.— And what on nirth religion has to do with these nicknames, I don’t know.’ “Sais he ‘I never knew that before ; I thought Unitarians were a religious sect, being anoth ei name for the Sociniaus, and I am very glad to hear this explanation.’ | “ Thinks I, I hope it will do you good ;it is , as good as a middle-age Latin, at any rate.” “After some further talk, sais he, ‘Your Min I ister is not a very easy man to get acquainted I with. Is he a fair specimen of the New Eng | hunters ? for he is very cold.’ “Here's at you again, Master Lord Dunk, j sais I ; you ain’t quite sold yet, though you are 1 bespoke—that’s a fact. ‘Well,’ sais I, ‘he is ! cold, but that’s his misfortune, and not his fault: | it’s a wonder to me he ain’t dead long ago. He will never be quite thawed out.

His berth was near the companion-ladder, the best berth in the ship, but it jines on to the hold, and the chill of that ice cargo, especially when he got into the hot climate of New Orleens, so penetrated his jints, and limbs and marrow, he has never been warm since, and never will; he tells me it’s extendin’ upwards, and he isafeard I of his heart.’ “Well he roared right out ; he haw hawed as loud as a man cleverly and politely can at a gentleman’s table, and sais he, ‘That is the best contrived story to excuse a cold manner I ever heard iu my life.

We are always sorry to hear a young lady use such a word as ‘polking,’ when she tells of having been engaged iu a certain dance, too fashionable not long since ; hut. hap pily, now it is fast going out, and almost banish ed from the best society. To her honor ho it remembered, Queen Victoria lias prohibited the polka being danced in her presence. How can a genteel girl bring herself to say, ‘Last night i was polking with Mr. Bell,’ or -Mr. Cope came and asked me to polk with him?’ Its coarse and ill-sounding name is worthy of the dance.

And yet she was a woman of many good qualities.; and one who boasted ofliaving always ‘lived in society/ ” Strange Adventure. —Mr. Redblossom drank more than his usual allowance of hot rum and sugar, one cold night, the consequence of which was, he gave his wife a rather confused account ofhis conduct, on his return home. “Mr. Smith’s grocery store invited me to go and drink, cousin Sam—and you see, the weather was dry—and I was very sloppy—so I said I didn’t mind punching one drink—and’s queer how my head went into the punch though! The way home was so dizzy that I slipped upon a little dog— the corner of the street hit me—and an old gen tleman with cropped ears and a brass collar on his neck said he belonged to the dog—and I was —you understand—ic—that is, I don’t know nothing more about it!” Cholera. —The Board of Health of Alexandri t, Va., report that the cholera, of which there have been seventy-three casessince the 11th of May, has gradually disappeared, and that Alexandria was never more free from disease than it is at present. political. Ctopton iu the Field. David Clopton is a candidate for Congress in this district. His letter below gives the encour aging news that he will enter actively into the canvass next week, beginning at China Grove, Pike county, on the 7th instant. We solicit, a hearty reception wherever he makes his ap pearance, and as the time is short, we beg his friends in every part of the district to go to work immediately, and the result in August will be highly gratifying. It is our duty to sustain him, not only by our approval, but by active labors— we cannot labor for a better or more deserving man. He is able, true and unexceptionable, and his election to Congress will tedound to the ever lasting credit of this dist rict. No man will ever have cause to regret casting a vote for David Clopton. His taients are unquestionable—his upr ght, consistent deportment evident to all, and his position in every respect really enviable. His numerous friends of all parties have repeat edly and urgently solicited him to take the field. He yields at last, though reluctant to exchange the quiet and comforts of private life for the noise and hustle of the campaign and the stirring scenes of Congress. Hence he is not forcing himself upon the district, hut only acting from a high sense of duty and obeying the voice of his warm friends. While we entertain no doubt of iiis election, we are anxious that it he nearly unanimous. Come, friends, lie up and doing, without regard to sacrifice, and let us discharge the duty .ve owe to ourselves, to the State and the country at large. One long pull for David Clopton ! —Adi?. Gaz.

Since the publication of my letter of 3d inst., such a clear manifestation has been made in so many different portions of the District, that I feel it would he improper for me to hesitate longer. You are therefore authorized to announce me as a candidate in the 2d Congressional District. I regret that tiie shortness of the time will not suffer me to canvass the whole District.

Cien'lon 1 n Ih ve rece.ved your communica tion of the ‘3ld inst., informing me that a “Convene tion of the Coiisutvativo men of Georgia assem bled in Mifie lgeviile on tha! day, h and selected me as their candidate for Governor, in the approaching canvass,” aud requesting my acceptance of lhe nom ination. However reluctant I may have been to occupy ! that position, the unanimity of their selection and my own entile sympathy with the spirit of ilieir further deliberations, forbid even momentary hesita tion to acquiesce in their wi.-hes 1 have read, with deep interest, the published pro ceedings of dial body, end am gratified to perceive that their p .sirion has been taken wi'h direct refer ence to present rather than to past issues, and that they have spoken in a spirit of fealty to country lather than to party. In our complex system of Government, “the rights of the States and the Union of the States,” are paramount interests, and their preservation re quires perpetual vigilance. Our forefathers, in habiting distinct colonies, by n united struggle achieved their independence ; but the glorious eon summation was, die investiture of each colony with the attribires es separate Slate Sovereignty Commensurate with their valor was the wisdon which promptly and seemed that the best safe guard, the surest guaranty, to each S ate of her newly ac quired freedom and sovereignty, was the Union of all Hie States. This union, to be effectual, must be invested with certain governmental functions.— Hence tiie delegation, by the States, of some of their political powers, with the express reservation of those not delegated, fidelity to the distribution thus ma le, is one of the highest dudes of all Ame rican patriots. So far fiom being inconsistent with or antagonistic to eacli other, the sovereignty of the States and the Union of the States are mutual supports, and component parts of a structure which time is fast consecrating as the realization of man’s grandest political conception. lii theory, their har mony is perlect; in prac'ice, their seeming conflict is the result of corrupt or desperate state-inanship. Fanatics, to promote particular ends, and Consoliila tionists, to subvert a Constitution they never ap proved, will oltenseek to steal away from die States their reserved rights, and gradually build up an all controlling central power. Their polit cal anti podes, more ardent than discreet, mole jeah us of .State sovereignty than careful of Federal Un on, exasperated by such perfidious intrigues, are al ways too ready to proclaim Disunion and adventure madly on untried experiments. It is the noble and responsible mission of conservative citizen-., calm ly, yet vigilantly watching the progress of events, to thwart the insidious machinations of ihe former, and crush the precipitate uprisings ot die latter.— In fulti Iment of this mission, Georgia laid befo-e thecoun'ry the exposition and resolutions adopted by tli? 0 given’ on of December, 15): ind surely all who gave them a sincere an i hearty appro val then, will rejo ce in their realfi.mance now. The sympathy expressed by djj convention for the oppressed of other climes is but a pulsation of the great American hca't. It is a generous and elevated sentiment, the simple expression of which cheers the heart, and nerves the arm of freedom’s struggling votify everywhere. I#t, for the reason that it is generous and impulsive, a vere restraint is requisite to confine it. within the well defined limits of onr internati >n and policy. Prominent among t.e ancient land marks, which indi ate those limits, is the interdiction of entangling alliances, and inter vention in foreign controversies. No eh se observer of passing even's car have overlo ked rec“nt efforts to stigmatize tiiis iruiy American principle, as adap ted only to the weakness of our infancy, and unbe coming the vigor of our m iturity. Innovation (misnamed progress) is and -ing much to lure us Iran and e path* of peace, wherein the*gnod and tiie w.se of oihet days led the young R public on io pros perity and to fame ; but no one of her many de partures is fraigit wth more unmitigated evil t an this abomintole heresy of propagating ny the swnrd, truths, we have heretofore been content to tench by example. lam highly gratified, therefor., to find that upon these two cardinal points—tne one of domestic, the other ol foreign policy—bo ll re qu-ring . casol-ss watchfulness, both *-f vast i .terest a’ the present moment, die convention adhere to io the lessons taught by the founders of our gov ernment, and recognize as their oracie, ‘‘The’Fa ther of his Country.” Every administration should be held to strict ac countability in the expenditure of pu .lic monev, for two snffi ient reasons: Economy lends to lighten the burthens of government, always cheerlullv Dome by our patriotic people when reasonable, and it fosters repubfi. an simplicity and purity. Cheap ness and simpl.cty in evety department are out ward, visible tokens, dis ioguishiog republican from regal sway. Their disappearance is au infalli ble symptom of degeneracy. Tne Federal Domain is a source of vast national weal’h, stimulating cupidity,and inching to inequit able sectional demands. The disposition of tht public, lands is therefore a subject of great magni tude, and present urgency, ‘l he new Stales, horn, reared and esiablished in maturity upon them, as suming that propinquity gives preference, and con necting w ith their disposition “wild, reckless, and gigan ic schemes of imernal improvement,” are manifestly seeking to devote them to “the promo- I tion of particular interests, rather than the gene .-1 | benefit of those who bear the burthen of ‘ovation, ” It m iv not he doubted that th“ elder S ates. uni ing In kind, but fi-m resistance to this sp rit of mono poly, will succeed in awakening m iheir younger sisters, a sense of ju-tice, slumbering, but not - x title!. lhe effort to adjust fairlv, aad with ut com motion, this growing con’roversv, would well he come the.r greater age, and more maip.nly charac teristics.

The birth, parentage, and education of Jenkins, are unsolved mysteries. It is only known that somewhere among the cotton-fields of the thriving State of Georgia dwells, in aw ful state, the man called Jenkins, holding in the hollow of his hand the entire Whig party of that fiery commonwealth, from Fighting Town Creek to the sources of Ocilla, and from .Sav annah to Columbus. The Alatnmaha hears his terrible voice and is seized with a low stage of water—the Flint as it rolls onward toward the Gulf is more fixed in its bed than ever. In fact, Jenkins is a name to conjure with—yet Jenkins has been hitherto unknown out of Georgia. But no * the fame of Jenkins is spreading and be coming national. Jenkins is destined to save the Union, and being assigned to the special work, the patrons of the Union, the men who trade in saving it from the people at large, are sound ug the praises of Jenkins His name first comes to its by lightning to the sound of mut tering thunder. We are startled by telegraphic assurance that Jenkins will not allow Georgia to vote for Scott, and that the W higs of Gcor gia do exactly as Jenkins says. An awful pause ensues, and we find Jenkins pitched on as the Georgia bolting candidate for her President Finally, at one of these awful meetings, wherein that eminent teacher of young tallies, the Rev. Mr. Winslow, holds forth, with length wholly out of proportion to strength, it is announced by somebody that Jenkins is as great a man as Webster, only not so well known. The bolters of Boston respond to the bolters of Georgia, and make Jenkins their candidate for Vice-President. Slim are the chances of Jenkins for vice Presi dent. His vote will he small in Georgia, and hardly perceptible in Massachusetts. The elec toral ticket got up for him in this State will lie where on election day. it is even doubted whether half the names on it are not fictitious But Jenkins will be run, and he will acquire an ephemeral reputation among a few men who take bolting newspapers.”—,V fi.
