ECONOMY- This is a virtue occupying middling ground between parsimony und extravagance. It consists not of the meanness which denies one’s self every comfort,-which refuses 'hos pitality to friends, which robs the creditor, or which oppresses the servant. And it is, on the other hand,' equally op posed to that prodigality which disdains to search out the leaks, to enquire into prices and oCcounts, to appear in any but the best style, or indulge in nnyjmt luxuries and dainties. What, now, can be urged in fitVor of econ omy, as thus defined ? I. Economy hns the sanction of. the Sa viour’s example. “When they were filled,he said, unto his disciples^ gather up the fragments that re main, that nothing be lost.” II. Economy is the subject of an express scripture command. “Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself,"and take op his cross, and fol low me.” “Let your moderation be known unto all men." Without doubt, the virtue of which we are sparking is, in part, referred to, in tho precepts of holy writ. Ul„ Economy-is an equalizing habit in sociely. The poor ennnot compete with the rich in spending, und the loose and lavish practices of the opulent often make the less favored sons of fortune feel that, there is ». wide chasm between the two classes. But where they both adopt, as a principle of action, the rule l am now contending lor, the disparity seems to diminish nnd n cement is cteate'd between the orders of sociely. IV. Economy conduces to contentment and industry. Disbursing without much ctirq, we easily persuade ourtelves that ‘a. fortune is requisite to meet oor wants: whereas, if we are spar ing in our expenditures, we soon come to see that “man needs but little here below,” nnd consequently are satisfied with n litltle. Ana how natural for industry to be engen dered in a similar wity. The next step, nud a natural quo to our looking about to guard against want, would be to exert ourselves to add to our store V. Ecouomy would furnish ns means for liberality. DoOo a man say, he hns nothing to give to objects of benevolence ? Let him enter up on a system of retrenchment—storing up the pennies,—parting tvi'h superfluities m dress and diet—making old things do as long as can bo, nnd he would soon find that he had an ample sloro from which to contribute to the cause of charity. It hns come almost to be a proverb, that there is no truly liberal man who is not olso an economical mnn. N. N. The-Wife’s Night Cap, Mr.——, who doesn’t live more than n mile from the post office in this city, met some “Northern friends with Southern prin ciples” the other evening, and in extending to them- the hospitalities of the “Cre?ccnt City,” visited so many of our princely Saloons nud “Marble Halls,”.imbibing spiritual con solation as they journeyed, that when he left them at their hotel ut the midnight hour: ho left, decidedly left, that he had “a brick in his hat.” Now, he has a wife, an amiable, accomplished, and beautiful lady, who loves h|m devotedly,.and finds but qne fault with him. That is his too frequent visit to tho places whei.e these “brick," aro obtained. After leaving his friends, Mr. paused a moment, took his bearings, mid having shuped a course, on the principle that con tinual angles meet, made sail for home. In due course of time ho nrrived there, nnd was not very much astonished, but rather fright ened, to find his worthy lady silting up tor him. She always does. She smiled when he came in. That also she always does “How are you, dear E.?” she said—“you staid ou.t so late, that 1 feared you had been taken siek.” ' , “Hie—ain’t sick wife; b-but don’t you th- think I’m a little t-tight “A very little, perhaps, my dear—hut that is nothing—you have so many friends, ns you say, you must join tbupi ip a glass once in a while!” “VV!fe,you’er -too good— th-lhp truth is, l’m d-d drunk ?’, " ‘LOh } no,.indeed, my dear—J’m suro that 'itoimO. r -d._ - —At | v- * Aa- ■ -^1 __ even another glass wouldn’t hurt you.

I he lady hastened, to open a, bottle,. aiid as she placed two tumblers before her on the sideboard, s.lie pui in ono a very powerful emetic.•Filling the glasses with the foamitig ale, she handed one fip her husband. Suspicion came ohbdily upon his mind.— She noverbeiore had been so kind when he was drunk, He looked at the glass—-raised it to bislips—then,liesitnled. “Dear, w-won’t you taste mine, to make it sweet—sweeter ?” said be. “Certainly, !ove?”.replied the lady; taking a mouthful, which she was careful not to swallow. Suspicion vanished, and so did the ale, emetic and nil, down tho throat of,the .satis fied husband. After .spitting out the taste, the lady finished her glass, but seemed in no hurry to retire. She fixed a foot tub of,wa : ter befure nn 6usy olmir, as if Bhe intended to. batho her beautiful little feet. But small as were those feet, there was not water enough in the tub to cover them. The husband bo- gan to feel, and ho wanted to retire. “VVaitonly a few minutes, dear,” said his loving spouse, “1 want to road the nows ip this afternoon’s Delta. I found it in my pocket.” A few minutes more elapsed, and" then— and.thep, oh ye cods and Dan o’ tho lake, what a time. The husband . was placed in the onsy chair. He began to understand why the tub was there; he soon learned what ailed him. Suffice it to say, that when lie aroso from that chair the brick had left his hat: It hasn’t been there since. He says he’lLnever drink, another julep; he can’t hoar Scutch ale, but ho is death on lemonade./— He lovus his wife better then ever. Roaders, this is n truthful story, Profit by its moral—iV. O.

Tho romantic mountain landful villages and ham. lets, conched now in sequestered valleys, now hung upon the rocks, in one continued moving panorama.

Our renders will remember the accounts which wo published some weeks since of a inurdor committed in Washington county, Ala. by n man named JohnB. Hardin, and a negro whom he had stolen, with their prop erty, from a gentlemen in Florida. From the correspondence of the Mobile Tribune, we obtain the sequnl of the tragic aflhir.— It seems that Hardin was urrested in Shelby county, Ala. The writer says ; “Ho was carried from Shelby county: to Henry county, Ala. . A delegation was sent from Milton, Sauta Rosacqyqty, Fia. to get him front thio authorities' in Alabama, nnd bring him to Milton, which was done. - Yes terday ho was executed in : Milton'by the people, without a trial. Tjie negro who as sisted him, belonged.to Josoph Forsyth, was also hung at tho same time .yesterday, Fri day, May 30th at half-p? .t )3o’clock. . ... 1 enough to kill four.movp. He and the Jack wero both.liqng. to one tree, dud burled in one grave. Rupentnnco and remorse were strangers to him. He said his fathor and brother wero both hung.- Ho refusod to make itny further confossion, ns he would implicate many heads of families \yho passed ns respectable, and would thereby . leave al „ turnei loose,) be as bad ns ever, if not worse. Th only request he had to make, was not to bo putto torture. He.said lie wished to be hung and decently buriod.” POLITICAL. CSriesjirtndenee of the Columbus Enquire-. M.U.-O.V, June 15,1851. It seems that Judge McDonald has accept? cd tho nomination of tho nameless Conven tion for the office of Governor, nqd ns dritici- patod ho is playing the gntno “low down”' for vote))! It is said thnt the way to make a proud, austere and nristocratie chap a “very clove: follow,” and “one of the'people," just nominate him for an office,'and the thing is.dqqo. It seems that in these days of the prevalence of “law and order,” of devotion to the Union, and tho flr.e growth of Repub? liedn principles', the wny’to bring a fire-eator or disunionist to their common .sense—or to make an old Federalist, nnd then Revolution ist (out ofLis own mouth will I condemn him) oome down to soberness, and nut forth or admit something like Republican doctrines, (‘doctrines which lie hns scouted, nnd. put his feet upon dll his past life) just nominate him for office, and he is just “Mar*’—if ; he is not,'indeed, “all things to nil mem” Let me promise, 1 that in what I shall say of Judge McDonald, : 1' shall 1 not speak of him as a private gentleman, nnd a sociable nnd kind friond—in that capacity no one who does not k'notV him better than the wri- ter.cnn appreciate him more highly. But a politician, both, in his professions and'his acts, there is not one other in-the State more objectionable—not one but in whom 1 would havo more confidence of his carrying dot the true principles of onr Government, while we remain in the Union, than in him. Did I want a dissolution of the Union, and were sura Hint by voting ’for or sustaining him it could bo done, aria that a Sounhern Confed eracy would be'formed, I might havo a Ibeti ter opinion of hitn-‘-for than I might hope that Iho Constitutinn of-the Republic might be so framed, that Ae could not look upon it’, and act. as if it was s consolidated Govern ment—and that he could then recognize that a State had some right to effectually protect its citizens and property from harm, other wise than hv “revolution,” or measures “not recognized i>y the Constitution." But yreol- ly preferring the Union, under existing cir cumstances, to a dissolution, or secession', or to any other act “not warranted by the Con stitution,” he is not the man for me, nor the people of Georgia. And secondly, ns the people of Georgia desire and intend to re- trinin'in the Union, until all other legitimate ami constitutional rights are exhausted, he is the last man in these “troublous times,” that should bo at the helm of State. I have re flected upon what is here said, Messrs. Edi tors, and if you will give me the use of your columns, nnd health is given me, “tho docu ments” will be forthcomirig.toprove to every uprejudiced and Republican mind, that I am right in triy conclusions, oral least that I am not very far wrong. But I will proceed at present to tho notice of Judge McDonald’s letter "of acceptance—let us glance at it 'a moment. The Judge sots out wilh thanking the Convention for the nomination—^'accepts it— nnd pledges himself, if elected, that “euery obligation imposed on me by the Constilulimi, State and Federal, and the laws enacted in conformity thereto, shall be faithfully fulfill ed-" I wish the reader, and particularly the “Southern Bights men," or “State • Rights men” who are not for secession or disunion, to hoar in.mind the above, ns before the cam paign is through 1 Will try (and I think suc cessfully) to maintain fully the second ! pro position above laid down. The Judge then alluded lo the “Govern ment of our venerated ancestors,” nnd its principles, and says'“dri no other principles can it'sland.” He then asks, “If the beauti ful principles of equality nnd justice on which it rests, nro disregarded nnd set at naught,, what is there to hind tho affections of the" people to it ?” Most men would say that if the Constitution was Bct at naught," and “a flagrant and fata) 1 violation upon it, and our rights, were perpetrated,it would not'only unbiud their affections for it, but they would be lor l, fujlii," for'“bursting up tho concern,” viz. 'tho Union ; Or do nny "other •'desperate thing hut . thnt they Would bring to life again “tho beautiful principles of equality and jus tice upon which it rbsts;" It'is true that others, and their "ow'n friends too, might *dif-’ for with therti and over-rule them, for- the lime being nrid ns Berisiblo men nnd -goqd citizens they might not rebel or'jtrike up- arms against (hem—but so long'as the con viction rested upon thorn that they were' degraded, that the last nnd fatal lick had been given, men of “true pluck’’* and who felt what they said, Would be for reversing the matter, and would proclaim it boldly '— Nay more, not only n “prudeftt" mnn, but even n coward, while laboring under the im pression that his rights had been taken from him, and he had been, and was still, degra ded, would be still for Obtaining satisfaction in sotno way, and tho latter would even sneak to do it—he might sny ho wns-for peace, that his friends said Ito must be peace able, arid “their decision Ought Hot to be dis turbed,” but let him get the power to upset, or to injure, or destro” * lw ' with the thought o' nd that no restitution had b would pursue ? None—this is human na ture. ■’ 1 **’* a “3* S# But Judge McDonald, in speaking of the’ action af the General’ Government, siiys: “In no instance has there boon a: more fla grant nitd fatal violation of them, four consti tutional rights) than in tho adoption by Con gress of tho measures (the late Compro mise) referred to in tho 7th resolution of th* Convention ” And further he says : “It is Claiified for them that they aro a Compro mise. It is a fraud upon an injured people (evon) to call them so," &c. And ngain he says; “hut if it bo a compromise, it is a compromise by which the interests of the weaker party (the South) nre sacrificed." Arid what, gentle render, or (ire-eater, or any other person of common or uncommon resentment, or of common or uncommon sense—whnt - ..—t do you suppose Judge McDon- , who rit ptesont entortains theso sen timents, says lie is now for ? What do you suppose .Judge "McDonald now says lie was all over the after, when lie wits traveling countly---^* 1 ”' 1 — a -- —reilrci lure 1 V when ho was' tra . , . associating with rind conferring with -Rhottj rind others like him in Georgia; and-else where ? AVhat do you supprise ho wns alter, when he wns heading those wliri were" for “ledress for the past” and “new guards for llVo future,” and who' nroilaimed to the world oporily and boldly that -all this meant' secession ! ondthis, too, 'riller the compro mise measures -wore passed ‘by : Congress ? “Tell it' not in Gallv, proclaim it not in the streets of Askelon but you; Messis. Edi- lors; can publish it in thp city of Columbus, that Judge McDonald now wants the people to believe thnt ho'’ is for “submission to -the past,” and ,that he w'ent to tho Nashvillo Convention, to advise us lo'jiitmtl to \vhat he conceived a “flagrant and fatal violation” of our constitutional rights. Do 1' misropre- * fl nd that either the peace, quiet, or ness of the country cun possibly lie promo by his oleclion—he never was more mistu, in all his life. And this 1 will attempt n, fully to satisfy them of hereafter, if notlring happens. But enough for tho present. Having been rather oil the regular mail lino, it was but a few days since that I saw the the comments or my friends of ilia "Senti nel” and “Times” upon my leltor giving an nccount of tho doings ol the Convention. 1 may, or may not, at some future time, no tice ono or two points in their nrticles. At present however, 1 will.only say, that the letter was written to let your renders know the true state of things at Milledgovillo dur ing tho Convention. I-waswell aw are oftr oppo nents were disposed to represent or to throw us into a fills0 position, and merely wished the facts communicated to tho public. If our opponents nro not pleased with the con- ■ tents ot that letter it cannot bo helped—it was not written for that purpose. , But before closing,.however,.1 would ask - a "resistance" mv. fricndtlho editor of the “Times,” to state cssfor the past, and security for thefu- whether or not the old “Union Democratic What do you 'suppose ho wns after, Republican parly,” formed iu MiliedgevilU in ’—to'South.Oerohwa, 1833, was a State Rights and .Kepublcan party—or, whether or not its fundamental principles woro based upon n strict construc tion of tho Constitution and of Slnto Rights ? Let him answer’ Very respectfully, T. of our constitutional rights. Do r Misrepre sent, him ?J Let.lacts speak for 'themselves.- l)i addition to : Whitt’ is hboVet tiuoted, ihe says : “Tho rapidly increasing slave population of tho'South is pent up ; there'is no outlet for it. Tho slaves nre to'retpaln here, and the Work of the abolitionist is to bo accom plished, through ihri vast multiplication of the race, or by the constitution to be effected by the early formation and admission of free States into.the Union. Coiisiderations like these induced me as tfhe of niy Stato's representatives, in the Southern Convention,' to endeavor to bring ffl< pasi--6\i; no !' nobody over contended or oven- thought of that I- Ihoy were all Resistance men, not submission^ ists !!] which if continued, must result In the overthrow of constitutional liberty or the subvertion of the Union.” Bui the Judge find his doubts ns to wheth er, (after what he had done) the people would believe him, and consider him'“soimd;” He, and Rliett,.arid others, had kicked up such n-fuis generally; nt, Macon, Nashville, and elsewhere last tall rind winter, and there lind been so mariy' imprudent men among them (‘such ns our respected friends of the Times nnd tho Sentinel) and ns ho wants the vines, he deems it necossnry to go still farther, and here he completely “lets down:” “Georgia, in ndvnlite of her sisters, has met in her sovereign capacity, and her peo ple have determined; to pretermit the out rage committed on her rights; by tho admis sion of California into the Uniou ns n State with her highly objectionable Constitution. This they nave done not from nny ■ affection they haye for the measure or the policy which dictated if, hut from their- extraordi nary forbonmnee, and encouraged- to hopo too, by the agreeable proclariiation uf some of their sentinels on duty, that’ “all’s well:’’ Their decision ought not to bo disturbed, iiowovcr much it inay conflict with individ ual opinjoris. In a Government of law and order, such decisions must be considered au thoritative. ' They are the will of the peo- plq. If the people have authority to say, that they will resist, and to'determine the ex tent of that resistance, thfly havo the like authority to sjy that-thpy will not resist. This principle 1 hold lo be incontrovertible, nnd necosSnry to the safety rind happiness of mankind.’’ He 'does it. qtiilo' gracefully; considering. his post position. But the Judge is used to such tilings. This is'not tho first time he has sliiled, I know him of old—nnd it was thabkaowiedge ol him, and of his aptness in humhuggery nnd deception, nnd also of that of his followers, that caused me to warn the Union .party in my last to be “wide awake and duly bober.” But will any one who has looked over his past course, whq. will look! at his present coufse fc 'believe him sincere when lie says the action of : the lest December Conven'ion, ind which was olso re-edopted by the late riion Convention that nominated Mr,?Cobb/ "aught pot lo be disturbed i" If he is sincere, why does he oppose, and try to overthrow thosp who adopted it. Is not Mr. > Cobb of tho" old- Democratic party, nnd wherein does Aject to Mr. Cobb. It is true Mr. Cobb pposed to his old Federal notions, his U. 3."Bank, Protective Tariff, and latitudi- narian notions, but Judgo McDonald has all along forgiven him for that, and hnssupport- ed-Tum up to the Inst year. If he is sincere, why docs ho become the leader of a party- who are now striving to obtain the power to reverse that decision—and who are striving,- at least,to hitch Georgia on to South Carolina, to bolster that State up, and to encourage her to secede ? Why is it that thosp^.wJvu not. only desire South Carolina to secede, but who still want Georgia to revorso. her decis ion and secede, too, why do they supppvt him so warmly ? If there bo a renl Union man— one who is sickandtited pfall this ngitation, and who wishes to see it stopped, and all in tho South be “one people”—if there b: is so silly as to believe Judgo M From the Chronicjo 3s Somincl Gov. McDonald’* Trucks. In the confusion of n campnign, especially upon new issues, it is often difficult to con- victn man of occupying a prisiitsn which lie occupies in fact. He may have ncled wilh a party, yet imft no speeches, written uo let ters, attended nu conventions—in a word,'- made no tracks. In such cases, it is only by monns of tho company ho kept than a judg ment can be formed ot him. . v! Gov MoDonald does not occupy this po sition. His position ns -n .Disunion mini— among tho Disunion: men of Georgia, and of the South, hns been far from unconspicuous. It was tnkon with an rippearcrit honesty Which we honored, until ho abandoned it.— Wo will first tnko occasion to point out his- TRACKS TOWARDS DISUNION, A second pointing in n like direction he made at Macon in August of last year, when, pre aiding over a Mass (!) Meeting then, which wns agreeably entertained by Mr. Rhett, of South Carolina, Mr. Ynncy of Aiabams,— Messrs. Colquitt, nnd others of Georgia, and not quite .so agreeably by the no«-moderate Mr. Stiles of Georgia. A third, nnd the most distirict nnd decisive track of all was mndo nt Nashv’ilo, while ucting ns Presi dent of that body, nt the socond session of" the Southern Convention, Howasnt the times referred to among that rilass ot disunion men who were in favor of a dissolution-of the Union for existing anis es. This is what we mean by classing him among Disunion men. In other words, be was among those who prof-rred Disunion to ihe Compromise.
