The Sorgho—Its Yield-
J. MaxevjTimmons, Esq., has presented to the
Darlington District Agricultural Society, South
Carolina, a report on Sorgho,which appears in the
‘‘Family Frisnd” of the 26th A u just. lie descri
bes the results obtained as folh w>:
These experiments with numerous others that
Mr. Ward and 1 have tried, convince ine rhat at the
lowest calculation taking the cane as it grows on
an average large and small, it will yield one gal
lon of juice to every twenty canes, or five gallons
to every hundred canes—and that eight gallons of
juice boiled in properly constructed vessles, will
yield one gallon of syiup. I have accurately
measured the ground and counted and calculated
the cane so that 1 am able to lay down the follow--
ing statistics as reliable. Here I have put figures
lower than in uiy experimental journal because
I prefered to be one the sure side. 1 have laid down
four feet as the distance apart for planting, though
my conclusion now is that three fleet, or three and
a half at most, is sufficiently wide, which of course
would make the yield greater.
One acre of land that will yield fifteen bushels
of corn, will, planted in Chinese Sugar Cane, in
drills four feet apart, make 17.500 stalks; tw enty
canes to the gallon will make S75 gallons of juice
fight gallons ofjuice to one gallon of syrup. This
at only fifty cents a gallon, will make about filty-
five dollars per acre. Besides you then have the
blades and tops for feeding your iiorses and
tire s.-ed for f< eding your fowls, all of which eat
it most greedily.
Aside from making molasses or sugar, it is high
ly worth the attention of our planters f r feeding
stock. One acre of land that will make filtccn
bushels of corn, will yield in Chinese Sugar Cane
17,500 pounds of provender, averaging the cane
after k is cured, at only one pound each, linn
at. only fifty cents per hundred, it is worth eiphty-
seveii dollars and fifty cents per acre. It planted
nearer than four feet the yield will be greater —
Besides, the cane may be cut down once or tw ice
for (ceding in the early part ul the year, and then
mature for sc^pi
Not being ptepared for it. I have not tried to
make sugar, though I have no doubt it would an
swer the purpose -
My exp -riurents all, I consider very unfair and
and imperfect, not having proper ve.-sefo for boil
ing, but 1 have myself no experience and little
knowledge about the process uf making molasses
or sugar.
'‘Double Yarralhe of the Creation in Genesis.”
Prof. J. W. Gibbs, of Yale College, the distin
guished orientalist and scholar, has contributed to
the New Englander an article with the shove title,
in which he allows that the beginning of Genesis
Contains two accounts of the Creation: the one
extending to the third verse of chapter second, in
clusive, and the other to the end of chapter third.
The first section, according to this division, has a
visible UDity. it being the history of seven succes
sive days. The second section has also a unity of
its own. The beginning and end of it both refer
to the Garden of Eden. The second section has a
distinct superscription, Gen. 2: 4. Cumpare simi
lar superscriptions, Gen. 5; J 2 : I, Ji: 16, :«>: j;
but see also Gen. lit; 20. 3|, 32, 3ti: 3't, Ps. 72; 20.
Sometimes we find double titles. See Gen. x, xvt.
In the first section the Deity is called Elohim
(God) thirty-five times, and by no other name. In
the second section he .is called J (hotah Elohim
(Lord God) nineteen times, ami by no other name,
where the writer speaks in his ow n person. There
are three instances in which the woman or serpent
•peaks, and the Deity is called E loltun, Genesis 3,
1, 3,5.
The Professor judges that the writer of the first
section had digested plans before him, and he notes
a ryttmms and uniformity in the construction of
his sentences, contrasting with the more simple
and artless style of the second section. The wri
ter of the second ofteo finds occasion to go back,
itl order to im ntidh circumstances which he had
omitted :u their proper place. After noticing the
formation of man, and being about to place hun in
the Ga. den of Eden, he goes back to describe the
planting and location of that garden, chap. 28—15.
Man is placed in Eden, and the temptation is at
hand; the sacred penman goes back to notice the
origin of the woman, as she was a partner with
him in the transgression. This again leads the
writer to describe the occasion of her being crea
ted. chapter 2. 15-25.
Professor Gibbs notices some apparent incon
sistencies.
In the first section, man appears to be created at
the same time with woman, Gen. I: 26,27. In the
second, he is formed from the dust, chap. 2: 7. 4: it,
and woman afterwards, 2: 22. In the first section,
plants are produced by the mere will of God, and
before the creation of man, Gen. J: I J , 26. In the
second, plants appear to originate from natural
causes and from human culture,-chitp. 2: 5, 8. In
the first section, the earth has more of N eptunian
origin, Gen. 1: 2. In the second, more of a vnlca-
tion, chap. S 5, 6.
These circumstances, the Professor thinks, are
eapabfa of a plausible solution. He also notices

The question of the sale or retention of the
Road, is a simple question of State policy, involv
ing no constitutional difficulty.
I he Road has been built w ith the people’s
money, raised by taxation It is their property.
" h> th*-r they w ill sell it or nut, is a question
proper for their, determination. They will, at the
prop* r time, make their decision through their
representatives in the. Legislature. Mv confidence
in their intelligence induces me to believe that
they are competent to decide for themselves,
v. h- tiler or not they will sell their own property,
without the necessity of being b etured on that
snhj-ct, eiiher bv myself or my oppnnen .
We boili complain that Gov. Walker has inter
vened in the affairs of Kansas, and has attempted
ti-dictate to the people as to tie-mode in w hich
they shall form their Constitution. We say, the
people of Kansas are comoetent to decide this
question for themselves. Should we not accord
to the people of Georgia a* high a standard of in
telligence and that they are competent to deter
mine for tliems lveg a simple question of dollars
an I cents? Neither of ns, if elected Governor,
will have any right to introduce a bill into either
branch of the Legislature. As no bill for the sale
of the Road can originate with the Governor, the
only question of interest to the advocates of the sale
of the Road, so far as the Governor’s position is
concerned, is, will he sanction the bill if passed by
the Legislature?
If I am elected Governor, in my inaugural ad
dress I shall call the attention of the Legislature
to this yvhole matter, and ask them as representa
tives of the people, in their wisdom to determine
whether they will retain the Road, lease it fora

The Sugar Trade —The fall in the value of sugar
and molasses has been great within a few weeks
past. The losses on the stock- on hand must have
been many millions of dollars to dealers in this
country and much more to foreign hulders. The
Boston Traveler says:
The decline from the highest point is now over 3
cents a pound, and there is a st^ng probability that
bottom is not yet half reached When the decline
had reached only one half the present amount, a
few weeks since, the NVyv York Independent

A Good f7oad-Brenf;er—On a visit yesterday to
the Eastern Penitentiary, in this city*, we saw a
curiosity. The Superintendent ivas packing up
an order for 750 pairs of boots, just made for a
plantation in Mississippi. There were a due pro
portion of sizes, but with one exception. For this
pair a paper diagram of the sob- was sent as a guide
to the maker. The boots, when finished, were I9J
inches long, tij across the sole, and 4 j inches wide
at the heel. The pair weighed jnst eight pounds.
The boots were made for a negro slave of gigantic
proportions, a sort of deputy overseer on the plan
tation far which the boots were ordered. Beside
them the other foot gear, although by no means
small, appeared fairy like in comparison.—Phil

A Ludicrous ^midrut.—A ludicrous incident
took place at the Junction Ho'el, this afternoon,
upon the arrival of the train from Indianapolis.
A gentleman and lady inspired with a sudden
recognition were observed to rush frantically into
each others aims, and th fun of it was, that, after
a hearty embrace, they discovered that both “had
the advantage.” They were strangers, hut the
lady mistaking him for hr 1 r "dear cousin Charlie”
had embraced him, while he with halfdefined recol
lection ot having seen her before, went into lemons
an “got squeezed ” The mutual embarrassment
upon the discovery of the mistake can be well
imagined.

Drinking Among Young Urn.
Indiscriminate drinking among our young men
eventually makes its mark upon the population of
our cities. We can see it betraying itself in the
rising generation. * Jt is impossible for any man to
drink even pure liquor six orseven times a day
without suffering severely in constitution. And
when lie transmits this impaired constitution to
Ids son, who in turn impairs it still further, by the
-ame course, it requires little foresight to .see that
we are preparing a population for our cities that
will not. in physical frame, be much better than
the wretched Aztecs. This love of drink and bar
rooms is every day increasing. Every day sees
fresh saloons sta-ting up in our midst. ’ Every day
sees ouryouth becoming more and more the victims
of this habit, for we really think It more a habit
than a perversion It is no love foi joviality that
tempts them, except in a few cases. It is not the
hot exurber of youth. It is not the evanescent im
pulse of the gay young fellow who is sowing his
‘wild oats.’ It is, as has been said, acold, deliberate,
confirmed habit. No atmosphere of recklessness
or joiity surrounds the drinking groups, except on
occasions, and no peals of merriment atone for the
act., by proving that it is at least unusual. A grim
and melancholy air pervades each countenance.
The drinks arc poured out, the glasses raised and
touched with a loathsome air of custom, and each
man swallows his portion with the same impassive
countenance he would wear if he were drinking a
glass of plain w ater. All the coucomitauts that
partially redeemed or excused, are wanting iu this
ad and formai ceremony. The actors drink, not
1 becau.-e they love it, and want to be merry, but
because they have been accus'omed to it ever since
they were boys, and that it has now become a
habit, which is more imperious than if it were a
‘ passion.

There was a clergyman yy'Iso often became vexed
at finding his little grandchildren iu the study.
One day one of these little children was standing
bv bis mother's side, and she was speaking to him
of Heaven. “Ma.” said he, “I don't ivant to go to
Heaven.” “Don’t want to go to Heaven, my son/”
‘No, v ia. I’m sure I don’t ” “4A hv not, my son?”
“Why grandpa will be their Yvon’t lie/” “Why yes

The boy is right. Home is the type of Heaven,
and if a nmn so far yields himself to his irri ablc
impulse as to make it miserable, it js safe (for a
small boy) to conilude that he will do the same
thing in Heav.-n. As our friend ot the Aib.iuy
Transport observe-: There is nothing more un
becoming true manliness than that fretfulness,
peevishness, and fault-finding which makes his
presence oppressive and his absence desirable. A
matt who is a tenor to childhood and the dread
of his dependant holds within him- If >11 the essen
tial elements of a coward and a brute. Now- it this
is unbecoming a man of the world—a gentleman—
bow-must it appear iu a Christian? What is a
man’s Christianity which does not control his
temper, fill him with benevolent consideration fur
the feelings of others, make him kindly disposed,
and render him attractive to those he unis' resem
ble before he is tit for the kingdom of Heaven?
He might as well be a Hindoo, sofar as any hut
himself, or his Christian influence is concerned.
This is a nervous world. Some good Christians
are troubled with nerves, aud shoiv where they
are troubled without meaning anything particular.
We learn their ways, admit their giv>dness, and
make allowance for them, the same as we do for a
gentle but thin skinned horse in fly-time. But
there are others who are morose touehy, ungentle-
manly, and uncomfortable, especially iu their own
homes. The boys call sueli ‘the old man,” ridi
cule them behind their backs, and joke about their
prayers. For snch our sermonet'e is intended-

Bf.ar Shooting at thk White Mountains.—
A gentlemen in this city has received a letter from
friends, stopping at Shelburne, New Hampshire,
giving an account of a hear shooting at that place,
in the White Mountains, on the third instant. It
appears that the bear had come down from the
mountain anight or two before, and had killed and
eaten a sheep within a few rods of the house of.
Augustus A.-Stevens near the village, and only a

Culture, of the Blackberry.—The Agriculturalist
ha- tiie following with reference to the Lovvtou
blackberry.
• As a market cr p. w e think this blackberry
would pay well. ’1 Ivy are as easily cultivated as
a cor > crop, and need no Second planting Set
them six or eight feet apart, and the only care re
quired is to keep out weids, and the excess of
plants that continually spring up all over the
giound if not kept cut down. Mulching the
ground, that is, covering it over with a layer of
straw or refuse liny is useful. It would tie well to
work into the soil a good supply of yard manure
before, setting out the plants. On poor soil, an
occasional top-dressing of mannre may be given.
“I will be noticed by those unskilled in black-
bet ry culture, that, like the raspberry, fiuit is
only produced upon can' s of the previous sum
mer's growth. The plants can lie set in utumn
or spring, though lie u ueli prefer autumn,as they
get w-elt routed and usually yield more new canes

“The plan's hear transplanting and carriage

the ground ready prepared before opening the
plants, and set them nt once, without exposure to

More know Yothing Blustering.
The Georgia Citizen, of the 14th inst, reports
Mr, Benj H. Hill, as having said at Griffin, on
Saturday last, that if Judge Brown would canvass
Southwestern Georgia with him, that he (Hill)
w ould give him the conclusion every time. It
was very easy an>( safe for Mr. Hill to have made
sueli a prupusiton, for effect, when Judge Brown
h-d some dozen or more appointments, for differ
ent section of the State, published, and to which
Mr. Hill was invited Judge Brow-n has kept a
public invitation in half the newspapers in the
State, nearly ever since the canvass commenced,
inviting Mr. Hill to his meetings, hut Mr. Hill has
grneiallvheenolhrrwi.se engaged: and now- the
impression issought to he made that Judge Biown
declines to meet him. Such blustering won't do,
gentlemen—try some liing else.
Old and Prior.—The Boston Courier thus touch
ingly expresses a great truth:
“It was formerly our fortune—not an enviable
one—to administer the insolvent law. An old
man, who came under our jurisdiction, once -aid
tous: ‘It is hard to be old and poor.’ It was a
simple remark; but tbe tone, and look gave it
pathos and significance; and bow- sadly, painfully
tine it is! Tbe young .man can confront fortune;
the stone which she flings at him he can pickup
and si t as a jewel in his crest; but the old man
falls under the blow. Rejoice, then, man ot
genius, in thy genius! O pure in heart, rejoice in
thy purity! and O young man, rejoice in thy
youth; fur time aud thou nre good against any
two!”

The details which I regard material are the
lowing:
1st Th“ Road should be. sold for its fair value
—Georgia is nut so much in debt that she is obliged
to sacrifice her property to raise money. The peo
ple have been taxed to build 'be Road—they have
invested a large amount of money in it, and, in
my judgement, that amount should not he foolish
ly or hastily squandered. We should not desiieto
sell the Road simply for the purpose of saying that
w-e are rid of it. It is said that it has cost us, in
round numbers, some six millions of dollars. This
is a large stun of money ate' it should not be squan
dered or its security as a permanent fund endanger
ed, for the advancement of the fortunes of any,
even the most ambitious political aspirants.
In 1843. the Legislature of Georgia passed a bill
authorizing the Governor to se!i the Road, provided
he did not take less than one million ef dollars for
it. This act remained in force ti 1 1650. Had th-’
Governor the fi st of the year I '50 sold the Road
as he had authori y to do, fur one ■ iilimi of dol
lars, and had the money, as might have been the
case, been wasted by improvident Legislation
eie v Georgian w ho now- looks upon tbe Road as
being w orth five or six millions of dollars, must
have deeply regretted our imprudence.
This shows the importance of calm dispassionate
action, in matters involving such immense inter
ests.
2nd If the Road is sold, the people ofGeorgl*
should have the preference in the purcha-e of the
Stock. Books should he opened itt every comity
in the State, on the same day, giving every citizen
who desires it. an opportuniti to t'ke Stock, and
denying to any Capitalists the right, to take more
i4ihii some reasonable amount, to be determined by
the I egisl tine until all the people of tbe State
have bad a fair oopor-unity to subscribe for the
Stock. 1 belii ve the Stock of the Road in the hands
of a private Company would be the best paying
Stock in Georgia. The plan above proposed would
i deni to the wealthy capitalist tbe opportunity of
| -eiz'ng upon the entire Stock of the Road, and would
| give the laboring man, though he may have, mon
ey to pay hut for a single share, a fair opportunity
in the pm chase of the Stock- In my opinion, this is
prop r
3d. The question of freights should be so guar
ded in tbe contract of sale, that, the Road could
not he made an engine of oppression upon the peo
ple ot Georgia in future.
In the event of a sale of the Road without this
safe guard, the Company purchasing wou'd have
•no right, in fntme. to impose their own terms of
freights and passage, and the State bnnnd by her
solemn contract of sate, could not interfere to pro
tect her citizens. Ami let it not tie forgotten that
the Company owning this Read would not bo driv
en by competition, as most other roads are, to keep
down their freights to a reasonable standard.
Our Road i- the only connecting link between
the net-woik of Railroads, at each end connecting
» portion of the Atlantic Coasts with tlm mighty
West There can he no competition. Hence the
necessity in the contract of sale for guarding the
interests of the people on the subject of freights,
(including way freights,) and passage over the
Road, either by retaining the control of the matter
iirthe hand-of the Legislature, or compelling the
Treasury of the frtate, thus reducing ihe taxes of
the people; or it might be used in lending aid to
tbe construction of other Roads, provided those
desiring its u-e,could make tbe State imply secure
hy mortgage or oilier sufficient security. Or it
might be o; herw -o disposed of, as prudence and
w isdom might dictate for the benefit of the peo
ple.

have suggest'd 'hen s>- ve.- to my mind as neees-!

the Company to sell, ii is proposed to furnish them

the fact that the amount of annual income
frrmthe Road will have much to do in de-
termimng the price which the Road will com

the Mi niphis A; ( harlestoit Road is gn ally in
creasing the freights and travel over our Road,

Road Add 10 this the further fact that the East
Tennessi e & Virginia Rond will he completed
in a few months, tbinung a continuous Railroad
count (tion from Daiton to Washington City, and
it is probable that the increase in ihe value of onr
Road, when the 1 onnectionsare formed, will be
very great. As long as the Hnnual increase in the
value of the Road is more than the interest on the
money invested, the question as to the policy of its
sale, is oue which addresses itself to the calm
judgment, and scb< r, second thought of the pto-
p.'e.
From 1843 to 1850, lire Governor was authoriz
ed to sell the Iv’o.ol for $l,<)<!( ,OliO In 1850, the
Legislature repealed the act, and refused longer to
office it at that price. Only seven years has passed
since that time, and it is now n orth five or six
times as much as we then asked for it. An in
crease of nearly $J,000,i 00 a year. Jt is true we
have iu the meantime made some appropriations
fur its completion but nothing to compare with the
increase in its vaiue.
After maturely considering the question, should
tiie pi ople,,through their Representatives, refuse
to sell the Ir’oad at present, or to lease it, or take
its management out of the hands of the Executive,
it will then become my du'i, if elected, to meet the
responsibility of its management however oneious
and unpleasant the task may be. I am aware of the
embarrassments under which those cha'ged w ith the
managi n.cnt of the Road have labored in the past.
But I am of tbe opinion the time has come when
it ought to pay the State a handsome income. To
1 his point, 1 should direct much of the energy
of my administration, requiring of everyone
holding a position on the Read, a strict
and searching accountability, Believing as Ido.

Appetite and Strength Restored.—William Young of

“After having suffered severely for several days
with a most distressing attack of Diurrha-a, I purchased
a bottle of Bierhave’s Holland Bitters. It gradually-
checked the disease, and restored my bowels to perfect
order. Before I had finished the buttle, I found my
appetite and strength returning. I believe it worthy of
the character you give it, aud shall recommend it us
FROM DR. LEWIS, OF VERMONT.
Burlington, Vt. Nov. 12,1854.
Gentlemen: I am pleased to state, that I have tried
the Oygenaled Bitters for Indigestion and Debility, and
found immediate relief from using only a pari of a bottle.
I have tiie greatest confidence in it as a cure for Dys
pepsia aud General Debility, and recommend it with
pleasure to all persons laboring under those diseuses.
You are at liberty to use this as you think proper, to
promote the sale of this excellent medicine.
Yours, ire.,
JAMES LEWIS.

IHon. I.iitiou Mli^hens.
We have given, over and over ag'in, our rea
sons why we think the people of the 7th Congres-
sional District, should prefer Mr. Stephens to Mr.
Joshua Hill. lie is an abler man: and his princi
ples are better, and safer for the South, than are
the principles of Mr. Hill. We can cite the peo
ple of this District, more particularly the people
of.Baldwin county, to another reason, why they
should support Mr. Stephens, on the score of grati
tude. When a powerful etl’ort was made, four
years ago, to remove the Capitol from Milledge-
ville, whose voice, more potent than Mr. Stephens's
was raised in the Senate of Georgia against the
Removal? The citizens of Milledge ville can never
forget the ability and Eloquence with which Mr.
Stephens advocated the policy of No Removal.—
where is the gratitude of the people of Baldwin
county? Have they no kind return to make Mr-
Stepheus, for his gratuitous advocacy of their in
terests? Now is the time, people of the 7th Dis
trict, to make a kind return. Let the voters of
Baldwin county not forget, when casting th- ;r
ballots, the debt of gratitude they owe Linton
Stephens, fora manly and able vindication of their
rights.
“Twenty-fire Cents Ben.”
The only charge that Ben Hili has been able to
bring against the State Road, of any magnitude, is,
that he was charged Twenty-five Cents more
than the regular fare between stations! People of
Georgia, don’t you now agree with Ben llifl, that
the Suite Road ought to he sold ? Don’t yon think
it ought to be leased, given away, thrown away,
sunk in the Atlantic, to become part of the sub
marine telegraph ca-ble ? and all because Ben Hill
says he was charged the enormous sum of Tivrs-
ty-pive Cents over and above the regular fare,
when travelling on the State Road
Get out of the way “Bleeding Kansas,"’ Gov.
Walker, and all such minor questions, and mako

was written to the North, but took the Sonth-si'k
view of the Kansas question. And the conse
quence is. all the Abolition papers at the North
are loud in their condemnation of it. If it suits
the South, and the Recorder has to admit that the
Southern Democracy are delight'd with it. bow
could it also be palatable to the North? Our

R. R. R — A REMEDY FOR YELLOW FEVER.—
Let ns rejoice that science lias at last succeeded in dis
covering a remedy that will not only cure, but will pre
vent attacks of Yellow Fever, even when the pestil
ence is raging in its most terrible forms. Yellow Fever
can be as easily safely and as successful treated with
RAHWAY’S READY RELIEF and REGULATORS
as any other fevers, or common disease. Dr. Freder
ick IS. Page, of Miss., a well known and popular medi-
cul writer and practitioner in the Tropics and South
western parts of the United States, cured hundreds of
cases, even when the terrihle Black Vomit appeared,
anil he strongly urges the Medical Faculty to use the
Ready Relief as a preventive. By its use, says the
learned Doctor, “A multitude of lives will be saved.”
Let, then, nurses aud all who attend on the sick, pro
vide themselves with these great remedies. Radway’s
Eeadv Relief will protect the human race against Yel
low Fever, and allotUer malignant fevtrs. It w'll enre
Cholera, Dyseutery, BilHousneas, Fever and Ague,
Tooth Ache, Head Aelie, Neuralgia, and all torturing
pains, aches and infirmities.
Radway’s Renovating Resolvent will fill the veins
with a new and healthy stream ofblood, niidcnre quick
ly Boils, Pimples, Sores, Bad Legs, al! skin Eruptions,
Scurvy, Bronchitis, Lung Discuses, Ulcers, Tuherelts,
Bad Cuughs, Dyspepsia. &c.
Railway’s Regulators are to be taken whenever “You
do not feel right,” or that you feel nut of sorts,” or have
too much Bile, Costive, die. ()ne of Railway’s Regu
lators is sufficient to restore regularity to the irregular
organs.

A Remarkable Discovery.—It is well known to every
person who has been so unfortunate as to become af
flicted for a length of time with that most distressing
of all diseases—the Piles, that every remedy he heard
of as a cure, when tried, has failed in his case to ac-
coflpplish tiie end desired. He has suffered on from
year to year, at most, only obtaining temporary relief,
until he despaired of ever being cured.
In our advertising columns will be found the card of
Dr. T. It Cavauaueh, wherein he offers to the afflicted
with the disease, a care, in which he was supjiorted by
the certificates of men of standing and of character, as
to the efficacy of iiis mode of treatment.—Chicago

the last Congress speak.
to r e speak to Democrats—to m* n ivho are ire--
tiffed with us in principle, and who have a euir-
mon lot to share in the glories anil reverses of ota
party. To yon, then, Democrats of the 1st P ; -
trict, we would say, be not deceived by Mr Bar-
tow’s appeals. Ho studiously refrains from cur.'-
thing that savors of abuse of ycur principles,
cause he wants to get your votes, and knows
must get them to be elect-d. Only a day or t*
ago, we read in an editorial article in hts party c-
gan, tbe Savannah Republican, these words:
“As regards Mr. Buchanan, M"r. Bartow "
sustain him yyIu-ii right aud condemn li:m Bl
wrong. Will Mr. Seward or any other SontM 1 -
man do more ?”
Democrats of the 1st District, this is the verier-
humbug. Wiil you be deceived by sui h a shad r |
trick? “Mr. Bartow will sustain him (Bachunro
when right.” Do you believe it? Will Mr- ^
tow ever think Mr. Buchanan is “right" ?
Never while he connnues to be a Democratic 11 "
ident. Never vviil Mr. Bartow think Mr. Boi J
anan has done anything that is right, un::l •-
