L'nfil that time arrived it was undoubtedly
necessary that sonic government be established to
protect tbe inhabitants in their person and prop
erty. Vbe power to acquire carries with it the pow
er to preserve. The form of government necessari
ly rests on the discretion of Congress. It is their
duty to establish the best suited for the United
States, and that must depend on the number of its
inhabitants, and the character and situation of the
territory. What government js the best must de
pend on the condition of the Territory at the time,
to bejeontinued until it shail become a State. Hut
there can never be a mere discretionary power over
persons and property. These are plainly defined by
the constitution.
The constitution provides that “Congress shall
make no law respecting an establishment of reli
gion, or prohibiting the tree exercise thereof; or
abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press;
or the right of the people peaceably to assemble,
and to petition the government for a redress of
grievances,” Ac. Thus th" rigiits of property
are united with the personal rights, and this ex
tends to the Territories as well -as to the States.
Congress cannot authorise tbe Territories to do
what it cannot do itself; it cannot confer on the
Territories power to violate the provisions of tbe
constitution.
It seems, however, that there is supposed to be
a difference between slaves and other property.
Tlie people, in tire formation of the constitution,
delegated to the general government ceitain
enumerated powers and forbade the exercise of
others. It lias no powers over persons and proper
ty of citii' ns except those enumerated in the con
stitution. If the constitution recognises the right
of master and slave, and makes no difference be
tween slaves and other property, no tribunal act
ing under the authority of the United States can
draw such a distinction and deny the provisions
and guarantees secured against the encroachment
of the government.
As we have already said, the right of property
in a slave is expressly conferred in the constitution,
and guarantied to every State. This is in lan
guage too plain to be misunderstood; and no words
can be found in the constitution giving Congress
greater power over slaves than over any other
uecription of property.
It is, therefore, the opinion of this court that the
act of Congress which prohibits citizens from
holding property of this character nortli of a cer
tain line is net warranted by the constitution, and
is therefore void: and neither Dred Scott nor any
one of his family was made free by ilieir residence
in Illinois. Tlie piaintitf was not a citizen of
Missouri, but was still a slave, and therefore
had no right to sue in a court of the United
States
The court having thus examined the case as it
stands under the constitution, proceeded to other
points, saying as Scott w as a stave when he was
brought back to Misseuri from Illinois, lie was
under the law of the former and not of tlie latter.
It has been settled by the highest tribunals that
an individual does not acquire his freedom under
such circumstances. As it appears to tfie couit
that the plaintiff is not a citizen of Missouri, nor a
citizen of the United States, w ho could sue in the
United .States court, this court can give no
judgment, and hence the suit must be dismissed
for want ofjurisdiction.

Interesting forre-pondenre—Senators Toombs
aad fail,,
Washington, March 12. 1857,
The undersigned are fully aware
of the controversy, which some years ago
existed between you, and of the unfriend
ly fe.elingor alienation which it has left be
hind it.
Deeply regretting all this, we have anx
iously consulted together for the means of
restoring kinder and beiter relations be
tween you.
In our judgment, nothing remains of
his principles, acts up to them, and now j your longpast controversy that ought to
openly prophesies a Millenium in which ! perpetuate enmity between you <
the cotton plant shall be the tree of life,! prevent a generons reconciliation.--
Jit it ise Xr lion's Opinion.
Associate Justice Nelson stated the grounds
on-which he had arrived at the conclusion that the
argument of the court below must be affirmed.
Having stated the case, substantially, as above,
he proceeded to examine it on its merits. The
question was, w hether the removal of the plaintiff,
with bis family, to Illinois, with a view to a tem
porary residence, and after his return to Missouri,
was such a residence in a free States as worked
emancipation. He maintained that it did not.
Such questions belonged to the States to decide for
themselves. As towhetlier Missouri will recog
nise or give effect to the laws of Illinois outlie
subject of slavery is for Missouri herself to deter
mine, nor is there any constitutional power rightfully
to control her. Every State or nation possesses
exclusive sovereignty and jurisdiction within her
own territory, and her laws affect and bind all
property within her limits. No State or nation
can affect or bind persons or property outside of her
territory.
The question is full established that it belongs
to the sovereign State of Missouri to determine
the question of slavery within her own jurisdiction,
subject only to such limitations as may be found
in the constitution. This is the result of the inde
pendent and sovereign character of the State. It
is equally applicable to the other States beloning
to the confederacy. It must be admitted that Con
gress possesses no power to create or abolish
slavery in a State; and if Congress possesses power
under the constitution to abolish slavery in the
Territories, it must necessarily possess the power
to establish it. This he denied, and then proceeded
to show that the question involved in the case
now before the court was one depending solely
on the law of Missouri, concluding with the
remavk that the judgment of the court below
should be affirmed.
Justice Catron's Opinion.
Associate Justice Catron also stated the history
of the case, and said that if the court has no power
to decide the question further than to dismiss it,
it had no right to discuss its merits: but he held
that the court has jurisdiction to decide the merite
of the case, which he ptoceeded to examine. It
was now too late to question the power to govern
the Territories as incipient States, and fit tln-m for
admission. The only question was, how far the
power of Congress is limited as to the Northwest
Territory. Virginia had the right to abolish
slavery there, and did so by an agreement in 17i-7
with the other States; but this did not prevent new
States being admitted with or without slavery.
Subsequently North Carolina and Georgia ceded
their lands for the common benefit, and Congress
bad no more power to legislate slavery out of those
cessions than it had to legislate slavery in the
territory north of the Ohio-
There was no power to legislate on slavery in
eithei case. The inhabitants stood protected after
as they did before the cessions were made. In
Louisiana slavery was not only lawful,but was most
valuable. At the date of the treaty the inhabitants
were left free to enjoy their property freedom, and
liberty, and were to be protected tin-rein until they
came into the Union as a State. The Missouri
line of :16,3d was an act of aggrt ssion. Congress
cannot do indirectly what it cannot perform dir
ectly. If a southern man cannot go to the Terri
tories with his slaves.it follows that a northern
farmer or mechanie cannot bring with him his
implements of toil. If Congress could prohibit
any species of lawful property throughout Louis
iana when it was acquired, soitcould exclude all
descriptions of property. The right to legislate
in the Territories depends on the contract of ces
sion.
His opinion was, that the third article of the
treaty by which Louisiana was acquired stands
protected by the constitution, and cannot be re
pealed by Congress, and that the act of 1820,
known as the Missouri Compromise, violates the
leading features of tho constitution, on which the
I-nion depends, and which secures to all citizens
common rights He therefore held that the act
was void, and concurred with his brother judges
that the plaintiff, Dred Scott, is a slave, and was
one when this suit was brought.
and ministering angels shall be of the

States and England are all playing the
hypocrite. We all live by the cotton tree.
It is the British heart oak. Many a ba

cities, navies, and other works have Been

who watered it and plucked it from the
flossy pod, and cleaned it and packed it
into hales. Millions of our countrymen
would never have have seen the light but
for this exotic production and for its cul
tivators. A faiLitre.of the crop ss to a large
part of our people a virtual famine.
Should the cultivation of the plant find its
limits, that is, should it not increase in
equal propotion to the multiplication of the
human race and its growing wants, we
shall find ourselves more hidebound in our
means of life than we are by the narrow
ness of tliese isles. We know that tbe
thread of our national dynasty is cotton.
We know that for all mercantile purposes
England is one of the States; and that, in
effect, we are partners with the Southern

ists, rife Mrs. Stowe, cry over her books,

We thank God that no slave can exist
on Britsli soil, and only the other day
some of our soberest statesmen were de

Great Balloon Feat.
We find the following remarkable
paragraph in one of our English papers,
under the head of “Wonderful if true:’’
“A small Paris journal, called Les Contem-
porains, lias just published a most strange
account, sighed IIenri Page, of an aerostatic
excursion, which tlie article declares has
solved the the long canvassed problem of
directing balloons. The persons who are
stated to have made the excurtion, are the
Count de Pluvier, M. Gavarni, M. Migeon,
Mr. Falconer, an English aeronaut, and
M.H enri Page, tbe writer. The apparatus
used is stated to have cost not less 3G0,000f,
the greater portion of which was furnished
bv Count de Pluvier. The machine is
represented as consisting of two balloons
united together; of a spherical form, able
to contain 100 pounds of pure hydrogen gas.
The directing power is a modified screw,
communicating with the car, and a rudder,
made principally of whalebone, to change
the direction when required. M. Gavarni,
the inventor, it is declared, can obtain the
upward movement of the balloon without
throwing out ballast, which system soon
exausts the resources of the very best con
structed balloon, and becomes an invincible
obstacle to long excursions in the air. The
loss of hydrogen is instaneously repaired
by a chemical proceeding, of which M. Mi
geon is said to possess the secret, and by a
little apparatus of communication, also
invented by M. Gavarni. The decent is
effected, as ‘hitherto, by letting the gas es
cape. The departure of the a-ronauts, on
the occasion refered to, took place on the
15th January, at ten in the morning from
the park of Ferrieres, in the Solonge; and
next morning, at five, the atrial travelers
effected a safe descent within half a mile
We, your common friends, and fellow-
Senators, earnestly advise and desire such
a reconciliation. We believe that your
friends generally desire it, and that it is re
quired of you by public as well as by
private considerations.
We discard the idea that arty imputa
tion can ever be made on either of you for
your assent to the amicable settlement
which we intend to propose. Your known
characters, gentlemen, elevate you far
above t lie danger or the fear of any such
imputation.
The subject of your controversy has
long since been disposed of in the public
mind, and neither of you can feel that his
character or honor has thereby been affect
ed. We may go further and s&y that the
country expects, and will be gratified to
know that your controversy has been ami
cably settled.
Our proposition, then Is., that all past
controversy shall be no more regarded by
either of you—that when you meet, you
shall receive, speak to, and treat each other
as is common among gentlemen.
We earnestly invite, and will confidently
expect, the assent of each of you to this
proposition. We have proposed this mode
of reconciliation as best suited, by its
frankness and generous simplicity, to your
high characters, and and as preferable, in
all respects,‘to any nice negotiations about
points or terms.
We know that, in thus adddressing you,
we expose ourselves to the imputation of
officious interference and intermeddling. We
accept that responsibility in the hope of
reconciliating our friends. We have no
doubt, however, that you will appreciate
and do justice to our motives.
It can hardly be necessary, we hope,
for us to say that we have acted in this
matter of our own accord and motion, with
out prompting from any other quarter what
ever.
Copies of this letter will he simultan
eously delivered to each of you, and, as a
single line will suffice, we request and hope
to receive your respective answers within
one hour after the receipt of this.
We are, truly, your friends, &c.

FACTS FOB I.YIALIBS.
There are no such diseases as “Debility and
General Debility,” and the taking of Iron, Bark,
Bismuth, &e., instead of strengthening, will not
fail to reduce the powers of the system still lower.
“General Debility” is nothing more nor less than
an inflammatory action of the mucus membrane
on the stomach or bowels, and the exhibition of all
stimulating remedies and tonic preparations will
not fail to exasperate the disease! and sooner or la
ter bring about other diseased symptoms, such as
palpitation of the heart, disease of the liver, tic
dolorex of the face, pain in the head, Ac.
Let it b-- remembered that debility signifies in-
flamatory action in the stomach or bowels. It al
ways signifies this. Do not lose sight of this fact,
end you will steer clear of all such medicinal pre
parations as wine, brandy, bark, iron, bismuth,
•lengthening or tonic bitters.
In that state of the system known and called
“General Debility,” the mucus membrane of the
stomach, ot portions of it, are in precisely the
same condition as is the membrane of the eye-ball
when it is inflamed and blood shot. The losing
sight of this fact has led to t>.e stimulating mode
of treatment by the use of “strengthening and
tonic hitters,' and the like—remedies that have
hurried hundreds and thousands to a premature
grave. Their exhibition only tends to irritate an
already over-excited and highly irritated mucus
membrane, and will not fail, soontr or later, to
bring about an extension of disease to other and
important organs, and still further reduce the pow
ers of the sy-teru. All such remedies should be
carefully avoided, and those only used that have a
soothing and curative effect. Such are the effects
of Bliss’ Dyspeptic Remedy, and there is no case
of “Debility,” no matter of how long standing,
but that this preparation will cure, providing di
rections are closely complied with.
“It cures “Debility,” by removing the inflam
matory action of the mucus membrane ol the
stomach, which is the cause, and the only cause of
that state of system known and called “General
Debility;"

Southern Pacific Railroad.—The Harri
son (Texas) Flag says that there are 500
to- 600 men employed upon the two first
divisions of this road—and the Vicksburg
papers assert that their road to the Texas
line to connect with the Southern Pacific
road wiii he ready for use at the close of
the present year, so that the ftiends of the
Pacific road may he able to eat their next
Christmas turkey at Marshall, in Texas
—or Tyler, 30 miles beyond Marshall
—and travel thither on a Railroad all
the way from the Mississippi river.
Twenty miles of the Vicksburg, Shreve
port and Texas Railroad, are to he laid

twenty more by the middle of April, thus
completing forty miles of the Road.
Mechanics' TPages In The I Vest.—A
mechanic of Washington City, who wentho
the West in search of high wages, and
stopped in Chicago, thus writes home to
his friend:
As to mechanics’ wages out here, deduct
from five to fifteen per cent, from those of
Washington, and you approximate, to
wages here. The largest margin of differ
ence is in the wages of bricklayers and
plasterers—carpenters and joiners from
•81 25 to 82; painters and blacksmiths same
as at Washington; bricklayers and plas
terers at 81 50 to $'2 25 per day, and a
scarcity of employment at that. Ordinary
hoard -84 per week, and small frame houses
from $20 to $30 per month. This is true
of all the western towns of which I have any
knowledge.
A Retired Merchant Drugged.—On
Wednesday evening Alderman Enue was
sent for to perform a marriage ceremony in
the southern section of Philadelphia, and
when he arrived at the place he found the
groom to be an old man, having a large,
family residing on Arch street, and the
bride to be a young lady of twenty-five
years, in desperate circumstances, pecu
niarily speaking. The old man, who is
reported to he wealthy, had been drugged,
as is supposed, by the female, and the re
sult was the Alderman refused to perform
the ceremony In order not to excite
suspicion, he stated that he would have to
go back to his office to get a certificate, and
instead of procuring the blank document
he sent an officer to the place and had the
old mau taken away.
A German blacksmith in Cincinnatti

Ratification Meeting of Col. Forney's
Housekeepers.—The Washington errespon-
dent of the St. Louis Ledger says:
A singular circumstance happened to Col.
Forney’s residence, in this city, which
was discovered a few days ago. It has
been closed ever since lie left here for Penn
sylvania last fall, and intending to return
during the next month he had sent on orders
to have it aired and cleansed. On open
ing the le ase every part of the furniture
from cellar to kitchen had been gnawed to
pieces by the rats, and the bed-room floors
looked as if the recent terrible snow storm
had covered them with its fleecy feathers.
The business of stealing little children
for the purpose of obtaining a reward for
their restoration, has been practised for a
long time successfully, in New York.
Probably, on an average, two children a
week are abducted from their homes and
detained until afflicted parentsoffer a reward
for them,-when the kidnappers bring their
little victims to light and receive the
money. This infamous business 5s made
to pay very well, for the rewards frequent
ly tuTiount to over $100.
Every Fanner Growing his own Sugar.
—The great demands made at the Patent
Office, this year, for the Chinese Sugar
Cane, indicates that the cultivation will be
very extensive, the only difficulty in the
way being the want of cheap and portable
machinery for extracting the juice of the
cane. This difficulty, we see, our own
inventors are endeavoring to remove. A
Air. Hodges, of Cincinnatti, has a machine
on exhibition at Washington, which is
j designed for a sugar mill. It eonsists of
j three vertical cast iron rollers, supported
between cast iron plates, resting upon a
triangular wood frame, about eight feet on
its sides. Under each eomer is a large
truck wheel, so adjusted, when working,
.as to revolve in a circle, the shaft of one of
the rollers occupying the centre of the
frame, and elutched fast to a timber below,
preventing its turning, while the other two,
being geared into it at the top, are made
to revolve around it as tlie whole frame is
turned by the horse. On one corner is a
feed table, from which a man feeds the eane.
which, having been aeted upon by the
two rollers, passes out upon a table on the
other comer, which is removed as often
as a sufficient quantity accumulates. The
juice passes down through the bed plate,
and is recieved in a vessel made for that
purpose. Cheap and portable machinery
is all that is wanted to test the. great ex
periment which is now being tried with
the Chinese sugar-cane.—[Phil, ledger.
The Presidential Oath of Office.—The
fact that Air. Buchanan did not take the
oath of office until after the delivery of his
j inaugural, has given rise to an impression
with many that it was an unusual thing.
Such, however, is not the fact. John
Adams, John Quincy Adams, Jackson, Van
Buren, Polk and Taylor delivered their
inaugural before taking the oath; Harrison
took it just before the foregoing sentence;
and General Washington, Jefferson, Madi
son Alonroe and Pierce took it before the de
livery, Tyler and Fillmore had no occasion
to deliver addresses, as they were elected to
j the Vice Presidential office and succeeded
j to the Presidency by reason of vacancies
| from death. These inaugural addresses, it
i may be remarked, though they have come
! to he regarded as an essential part of the
ceremony of installing a President, do not
j necessarily belong to it, and are, in fact,
extra constitutional. They are purely
voluntary on the part of the President,
who is only required by the constitution to
take the oath of office.
It is a remarkable fact that all the inau
gural speeches of Mr.Buchanan’s predeces
sors, though he is now the fifteenth Presi
dent of the United States, have been
delivered since lie was horn, so young are
we as a nation. Washington delivered his
first and only inaugural speech to the
Senate, as did both Adams and Jefferson:
but he delivered none mi his second elec
tion. Though Jefferson delivered his first
inaugural in the Senate chamber, it was ad
dressed to his “Friends and Countrymen.”
Since his time the inaugural speeches of
the Presidents have been addressed to the
people, and have been delivered from the
portico of the capitoi.
Ihe Decision or (be Supreme Court in tbe
Dred Scott Case, and Its Tremendous Conse-
q’lenres.
The late decision, or, rather, the series
of decisions of the Supreme Court of the
United States in the Dred Scott case, is
of more vital importance in reference to
the settlement of the slavery question than
any or all the other acts and proceedings
upon this subject—legislative and judicial.
State or Federal—since the supreme and
final tribunal in the interpretation of the
constitution and tho laws, has decreed that
negroes or men of the African race,
whether bond or free, are not citizens of
the United States by the Federal C onsti
tution; that the ordinance of 17S7 was
superseded by the Constitution; that the
Missouri Compromise of 1S20 was an un
constitutional act; that slaveholders have
the right to carry their slaves in a slave
State is not affected by his temporary
sojourn in a free State: and that C ongress
has no power over the question of slavery
in a Territorv, and cannot delegate any
power over the subject to the Territorial
Legislatures.
The importance and comprehensive
bearings of these decisions cannot be over
estimated—they cover all the disturbing
party and sectional issues upon the slavery
controversv, and strike at the root of the
mischief in every case.
First the supreme judicial tribunal of
the Union decides that, according to the
Constitution, negroes are not citizens,
whether free men or slaves. Tn other
words ours is the white man’s Constitu
tion, and the negro, as a citizen, is abso
lutely ignored. The consequence is, that all
the existing Constitutions and laws of the
free Slates elevating negroes to the rights
and privileges of citizenship, are null and
void; for, in this authoritatively declared
meaning ofthe Constitution, to be a citizen
of a State is to be a citizen of the United
States, inasmuch as the Constitution ex
pressly ordains (Art, 4. sec. 2,) that “the
citizens of each State shall be entitled to
all the’ privileges and immunities of citi
zens In the several States.” This de
cision, therefore, settles the old difficulty
between Massachusetts and South Carolina
concerning the free colored citizen cooks
and seamen of the former, treated only as
dangerous free negroes upon entering ports
ofthe latter State, The decision is against
Massachusetts and her free colored citizens,
and in favor of South Carolina.
The decision concerning the Federal
ordinance of 1787 and the Missouri Com
promise of 1820, establish the full validity
ofthe Kansas-Nebraska bill, as the true
constitutional policy in regard to slavery
in the Territories. The decision concern
ing slaves in transitu through a free State,
or the temporary sojourn of a Southern
slave in a free State, settles the Lemmon
case, and all cases like that of Air.
AYheeler, of Nortli Carolina, whose slave's,
at Philadelphia, were so unceremoniously
spirited away; and in all such cases the
supreme decree is decisive ofthe slave
holder’s constitutional rights to his slave
property.
But the most important of these supreme
decisions, in a political party view, is the
judgment that Congress has no power, and
can delegate no power over the question of
slavery in the Territories. This decision,
at a single blow, shivers the anti-slavery
platform of the great Northern Republi
can party into atoms. The policy of
legislating slavery out of Kansas and the
other Territories of tlie Union by Congress
will no longer avail them. Congress has no
Farts Worth Remembering.
The N. Y. Tribune, in an article com
menting on the late decision in the Dred
Scott case, which declares the Alissouri
Compromise to have been unconstitutional,
speaks as follows of the Judges McLean
and Curtis:

of falsehoods innumerable in publishing

j that journal during the last campaign will
J recollect how'peristently it misrepresented
Air. Fillmore’s views on the slavery ques
tion, denouncing him as a Northern dough
face and a Northern pro-slavery man, and
as not to he trusted by Northern men on
tlie slavery question. Now it is well to he
borne in mind, in reading the foregoin
paragaph ofthe Tribune, that Judge Curtis
was appointed to the Bench ofthe U. S
Supreme Court by Millard Fillmore, when
President, and is the only Judge he did
appoint to that Bench that Judge Curtis is
a Webster AVhig and Fillmore American
and a New England conservative Judge.
It may he well to remember these thing,
when the Republicans, at some future time,
shall again endeavor to make it appear
that the Americans and Fillmore men took
the Pro-Slavery ground in the case. It
will be well to remember, also, that Judge
Alt-Lean, above referred to, was rejected
by the Republican Presidectial Conven
tion, at Philadelphia last Summer, to give
place to Fremont—the same McLean for
whom, had he been nominated, Mr. Fill
more would have declined, as entirely
acceptable to him and his supporters. We
say, let these things he remembered.
The Mediterranean and Euphrates Rail-
icay.—’Phe Paris Pays publishers the fol
lowing particulars relating to the enter
prise: The railway will commence on the
coast of Syria. The place chosen for the
head of the line is near a deep and
well sheltered bay, about two miles
from the left hank of the Orontes. A port
will he constructed at this spot, which ap
pears to have been designed by nature for
such an undertaking. On quitting the
cost the road will be directed toward Killis,
a commercial town in Syria, containing
about 11,000 inhabitants. From Killisthe
railway will he continued to Antioch, on
the Orontes, and from Antioch to Aleppo,
the chief town of pashalic of that name.
Aleppo is the most important town in all
Syria in respect to commerce. The in
habitants addressetj a petition to the
Sultan, praying that the railway might
pass near their town, and their re
quest was granted. After passfng Aleppo
the road will run nearly parallel with the
Euphrates to a place called the Castle
Ja’Bcr, on the Euphrates. There will
terminate the first section of the great
trunk. The line will afterwards be direc
ted from Ja’Ber, to Bussorah. It will en
ter the Persian territory by turning the
loft bank ofthe Perian Gulf as far ns Shiraz,
will cross Boloochistan and reach British
India by Hyderabad in the Daccan. Such
is the plan of the railway, which will bring
passengers from the coast of Syria to the
heart of India without quitting the line—a
distance of 4,000 miles.
vital and final decisions of our Supreme
Judges are “entitled to just-so much moral
weight as would be the judgment of a ma
jority of those congregated in any Wash
ington bar-room.” But this madness of
our Seward organs will avail nothing.—
The only alternative to the anti-slavery
factions of the North, from the Garrison to
to the Seward and original Van Buren fac
tions, is loyalty or treason submission, or re
bellion.
Unquestionably this bombshell from the
Supreme Court, together with the inaugur
al and the Cabinet of the new administra
tion, will at once re-open the slavery
agitation in all its length and breadth; blit
henceforth slaverv in the Territories is an
issue which must be decided by the laws of
climate, products, races, and the natural
laws of our population and emigration; for
Congress henceforth can have nothing to
do with the subject Meantime, the new
administration, relieved of the precedents
ofthe Missouri Compromise, the Wilmot
Proviso, and all other unconstitutional laws
and proceedings of the Government during
the last forty years on the slavery question,
has its course plainly and authoritatively
marked. In this respect Air Buchanan is
particularly fortunate, and his administra
tion will, we dare say, be singularly satis
factory and successful, for the people are
ever loyal to the Constitution and the laws.

Brotherhood of Suffering.—In one of
N. P. Willis’ beautiful lettersfrom Idlewild,
the following passage occurs.-
By the numerous visits and letters I have
received from cousumtives. I have been
made aware what sympathetic magnetism
there is in a common suffering. Consump
tion, too, being a disease that is thought
fatal, but which is gentle and almost iusen-
siltle in its ravages, it is usually of softening
and pensive influence on the character—
toning down the daily burthen of life’s
song to a chord below the key-note of the
world. For response that is in harmony
with this, the yearning is strong. They
long for sympathy from those who Jiave a
doom and sadness like their own. And,
with this link of tenderness between
fellow-sufferers, is formed a pilgrim com
pany, ready to start upon their journey—
a brotherhood of those to whom, “Azracl,
the Angel of Death” has beckoned to come
away.

Who AVants Money?—The polite man
agers of the Fort Gaines Academy Lot
tery invited our presence yesterday, to
witness the payment of the quarter ticket
of the Fifty Thousand Dollar Prize, in
Class No. 26, drawn on March 7th. The
lucky holder of tlie fortunate ticket 19,515,
was a gentleman from the village of Pal
metto, in the neighboring county of Camp
bell, named S. B. Watts, a merchant there.
Anxious to see what kind of a look a man
could have who was suddenly put in pos
session of twelve thousand five hundred
dollars, we accepted the invitation. We
are sorry we did, we were forced to wear
a most enviously lugubrious countenance
when we saw the happy visage of the re
cipient of that vast amount of money. To
a poor editor, it looked like a momentary
gaze upon the wealth which the owner of
Aladdin’s Lamp realized. In this instance,
tbe Aladdin of Palmetto departed on his
way to New York to lay in a supply of
goods for the Spring sales, feeling, doubt
less, much more comfortable with his
“pocket full of rocks,” than if he had gone
to buy upon credit.
AVJiilst conversing with the managers
of tlie Lottery, we were informed that the
same amount of money had been drawn a
few days before by a merchant in Colum
bus, Alississippi, who held No. 928, in class
21. Swan is decidedly a great institu
tion.

I he Aeit I1*iim #f Represent*!, trs.
The Washington Union h,v< an article upon the
political complexion of tbe m-xt House of Repre
sentatives, from which we take the following open,
ing paragraph:
“The impression erroneously prevails to some
extent, that the democracy have already chosen a
sufficient number of members to insure a majority
in the next House of Representatives. _ That such
a result is most desirable,and that it is tho duty
of our friends to sustain the President of their
choice bv a working majority in Congress, cannot
be denied. The Senate is with us, aud the House
will be,if in the elections yet to be held, all minor
considerations are thrown aside; and the true in
terests of the country kept steadily in view. The
election of Mr. Buchanan was an unequivocal tri
umph of trutli over error, of reason over fanaticism,
and gave assurance of stability and permanency
to the Union. It was not, as some idly asserted, a
“truce” or a “respite;” but a solid, substantial vic
tory, giving peace and repose to the country, the
benefits of which will b>- enduring, if those who
achieved it“take no step backward.” The victory,
however, will not be complete, unless the Demo
cratic party finish the work so nobly begun, and
send a majority of good and true men to the House
of Representatives.”
It appears that the Democratic party, ia order to
have a bare majority in the lower house ofthe
next Congress, must gain, in the States in which
elections are yet to be held, seven Representatives
over the uumber of Democratic members from
those States in the Congress which has just ex
pired. In the states in which elections have been
held the Democratic party has seemed sixtv-four
members against ninety for ail shades of the op
position, and thus far has a majority of twenty-six
votes against it, in the next House of Representa
tives. "Elections are yet to take place in thirteen
States, ali of them, with two exceptions, southern
States, viz: Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maryland,
Virginia, North Carolina. Georgia, Alabama.
Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee,Tex
as and Missouri. In the last-named State the
election for members of Congress has already
taken place, but a vacancy lias since then occnrr
red, by the resignation of James S. Green, elected
for the short term to the Senate ofthe United
States. These thirteen States, in which elections
are yet to be held, were represented in the House
of Representatives -of the last Congress, by forty-
seven Democrats, and thirty-three members of the
opposition. If they are represented in the same
way, in the next House of Representatives, there
will be a majority of Twelve votes in that body
against the Democratic party. In other words,
the Democratic party must gain in these thirteen
States, seven members, in order to secure a majori
ty in tlie lower House of tbe next Congress.—
Where are tliese seven gains to be made? and what
is the duty of tlie Democracy of Georgia in the
premises?
These thirteen States were represented in the
last Congress, ns wc have stated, by forty-seven
Democrats and thirty-three members of the oppo
sition, and the following table will show how this
representation was divided among tlieui:
Democrats. Opposition
Rhode Island —
Connecticut — 4
Maryland 2 4
Virginia 12 1
North Carolina 5 3
Georgia - 6 2
Alabama 5 2
Mississippi- 4 1
Louisiana 3 1
Kentucky 4 6
Tennessee - 5 5
Texas 1
Missouri — 1
47 33
The triumphant success of the Democratic, party
at the late Presidential election in all the States
in this list,except three .authorize ns to expect gains
in those States in the approaching Congressional
elections, which will give it an efficient working
majority in the next House of Representatives.—
Hut this result—so necessary to the success of Mr.
Buchanan’s administration—can be accomplished
only by the cordial union and efficient organization
of the Democratic party iu the twenty-three dis
tricts of these States which were represented in
the last Congress by opponents of the Adminis
tration. Two of these districts are in Georgia;
and by proper effort, both may be carried in the
next Congressional election. It will not do, for
the Democracy of these two districts, to rely upon
gains, elsewhere to be made: to secure the ascen
dency of the Democratic party in the next House
of Representatives. Upon them the political com
plexion of that body may depend. The majority
against them is small and my be easily overcome
by tbe selection of candidates upon whom the
whole strength of the party may be concentrated.
Tbe Electoral ticket of the American party suc
ceeded in the third district by sixty two only, and
in the seventh by one hundred and four votes. The
Democracy of those two districts should enter the
canvass with the determination, that as far as they
can control the result, the administration shall not
be thwarted by an opposition majority in tlie popu
lar branch of the thirty-fifth Congress.—Const.
Raising the Devil.
A LEGEND OF ALBERTIS MAGNUS.
“ And hast thou nerve enough 1” he said,
That gray old man, above whose head
Unnumbered years have rolled—
“ And lias thou nerve to view,” he cried,
“ The incarnate fiend that Heaven defied?
Art thou indeed so bold?
Say, eanst thou, with unshrinking gaze,
Sustain, rash youth, the withering blaze
Of that unearthly eye,
That blasts where’er it lights—the breath,
That like the simoon, scatters death
On all that yet can die !
Darest thou confront that fearful form,
That rides the whirlw ind and the storm
In wild unholy revel ?
The terrors of that blasted brow,
Archangel’s once, but ruined now—
Aye, dar st tliou face The Devil ?”
“I dare !” tbe desperate youth replied.
And placed him by tlie old man’s side,
In fierce and frantic glee;
Utiblanclied his cheek, and firm his limb;
“No paltry, juggling fiend, but Him !
The Devil I fain would see !
In all his Gorgon terrors clad,
His worst, his fellest shape !" the lad
Rejoined in reckless tone.
“Have then thy w ish !” Albertus said,
And sighed, and shook his lioary head,
AA’ith many a bitter groan .
He drew the mystic circle’s bound,
With skull and cross-bones fenced around!
He traced full many a signet there ;
He muttered many a backward prayer,
That sounded like a curse—
“He comes !” lie cried, with wild grimace,
The feilestof Apollyon’s race !"
Then, in his startled pupil's face
lie dashed an EMPTY PURSE !
AVashington, Sunday Night.
The President and Cabinet have resolved to
turn out office holders generally on the expiration
of their commissions.
Gen. Thomas has been re appoined assistant
Secreary of State by Gen. Cass.
A despatch to tlie Baltimore Sun says, underdate
| of last Monday:
The now Cabinet was in session this morning,
negaged, ;.s is supposed, in the consideration of
the policy to be pursued relative to the executive ap
pointments.
All the departments Lave furnished lists of tho
•officers w ho held places in the same under limited
commisions, and tlie opinion prevails here that
| such officers will lie permitted to continue until
the expiration of their commissions, he re-appointed
or not, as the administration may prefer; but, as a
general rule, such vacancies are to be filled by new
men, which some of the in-cumbents already under
stand; and tliis will be the case especially in New
York, Philadelphia, and other principal cities.—
The minor places will of course be effected by this
j policy, which is regarded as one of rotation.
Almost an entire change of foreign ministers and
i consuls is anticipated.
lVrallh ofUr. Buchanan’s Cabinet.
The New York Herald has been guessing at the
1 private fortune of Mr. Buchanan’s Cabinet, and
; gives us tlie follow ing magnificent summing up.
, It says:
Most of tbe members of the present Cabinet are
I wealthy,rand asja unit theySropresent an aggregate
j wealth of some four and a half millions of dollars.
' It mav thus be divided among them :
j Lewis Cass, say $2,00(1,000
Howell Cobb 500,000
Jacob Thompson 1,000,000
| John B. Floyd 500,000
Messrs. Toucev, Black aud Brown 500,0)0
Total $4,500,000
Mr. Buchanan is also said to be worth about
$150,000, and, in commenting upon the above, the
Mirror says:
“According to the Herald’s theory, that wealth
makes men honest by destroying the temptation to
steal, it logically follows that we shall have an
honest administration.”
Uollotcoys Ointment anil Pills.—Extraordinary
Cure of Erysipelas.—Mrs. Emma Rowecroft, aged
42, of St. Pauls, Minnessota Teritory, suffered
severely from periodical attacks of erysipelas in the
face, to w hich she appeared to have a constitution
al predisposition. In July last she had a return
of the complaint, with unusualy violent and dan-
geenus sympsoms, and under the advice of a friend
from New York, obtained a lot of Holloway’s Oint
ment, and applied it according to the directions.—
The result amazed as well as delighted the uufor-
tunate sufferer and her family. The inflamatory
symptoms subsided; tbe redness faded iu the course
of a few days to a yellowish hue, and the cuticle,
or scarf skin, on tho parts affected, came off in the
form of a whitish scurf. A socond box completed
the cure, leaving neither scar nor blemish on tho
face. The Pills are as efficacious in subduing in
terna! disease, as tlie Ointment is iu removing
all external disorders.
The Hon. L. M. Keitt will dliver the annual
address, this year, before the Societies of the
Georgia University.

years of age, was taken suddenly ill in the night,
with a severe pain in the stomach, followed by
Choleia. He found no relief until I gave him a
teaspoonful of the Pain Killer, diluted with warm
water; but after the expiration of a few moments
he brought it up, when I repeated the dose, which
partially relieved him. I followed it with a third
dose, when he fell asleep, and on waking next
morning he was quite fresh. I consider it a most
valuable medicine to be always at hand.”
