In the absence of any evidence on my side, the de cision is just and right Gentlemen, I will now introduce some evidence myself.

Thereupon this correspond ent walked out of the hall of j political life, and of having become disgusted with its cares. His national aspirations and base treachery to his section and the slave in stitutions of the South bad destroyed him, not withstanding his great former services, his personal popularity, and his eloquence and n- droitness in speaking. The old self-seeker felb and hoped to rise no more in Texas. Upon returning home, however, his views underwent a sudden changci and lie entered the lists against his former competitor. Gov. Runnels. The Stato Rights party of Texas started an unnecessary and disnetrous issue. They made the re-opening of the slave trade the great question in the election, dividing their own party and driving off many. The speeches of the canvass were filled chiefly with this subject. Houston saw his advantage,* mounted the op position, and lias ridden to victory over those who, on State Rights grounds, aud resistance to Northern aggression, had beaten him to the earth by overwhelming odds. To the advan- tage given him by this issue, were added the memories of the past, which completed the work of bis success. lie canvassed the State most actively; ev erywhere revived, among his old comrades in arms, recollections of San Jacinto and of the early glories and suffering of the founders of the Republic, melted his audience to tears, and wept with great effect himself, as the result shows. The States Right party of Texas have bro' defeat upon themselves by making an imprae ticable and mischievous issue. Let it be a les son to be remembered. The people ot the South should be informed ou the subject; but to make it matter for voting, and a bring issue, dividing our people, is a foolish and fatal move. Let the subject be considered calmly and tho roughly sifted by discussion merely. When the South is in a position to act on it, it will be time enough to make it an issue. But until then, irach s use of it isonly fraught with evil In this instance it has paralyzed the State Rights party of Texas, and raised to power one of the greatest enemies to the Soutli and most unmitigated demagogues within our borders— a Southern Freesoiler.—[Charleston Mercury, Aug. 13. From the Correspondence of the Index. Letter from Canada. Dear Bro. Botkin : Before leaving Quebec, I received an invitation to ac company three friends to Lalco St. Charles. Having heard of the beauty of the place, I gladly accepted their proposal. The distance from Qnebec to the lake being twelve miles, and tbc road lying across the' hills, it was deemed advisable to start early, so, shortly after daybreak we commenced onr journey. The morning was beantiful, the air coming from the mountains cool and bracing, and the new-mown hay scat tered its fragrance around. There had been a thnuder storm the evening pre- vions, and rain sufficient to allay the dust having fallen, made the driving pleasant. Many cottages, gleaming throngh tlio trees by the roadside, were passed, and bands of French Canadian men and women going to work were met. We had been traveling in a di rect line from the city, but soon came to a cross road along the hill-top from the summit of which we beheld a splen- 1 did prospect. Beneath ns lay fields of ripening grain and sweet-scented clover, all la den with dew ; every field having a different shade of green, the prospect had a variegated appearance. The no ble St. Lawrence, smooth and clear as a looking glass, flowing to the ocean, between the mountains,stretched away to the eastward. Qnebec lay before ns.

The citizens of the town of Chelmsford (Mass.) propose to erect n monument in honor of the Revolutionary heroes of that place, and had made arrangements for the inauguration on the -1th of July. Unforseen obstacles hav ing arisen, the ceremony lias been postponed to the 22d of September. In anticipation of the event, they invited Ex-President Pierce to be present and received the following reply Lanoem Swalbacb, ) Duchy of Nassau, June 2,1859.) My dear Sir: I thank yon cordially for your kind letter of the 13th of April, which reached Rome after my departure, was return ed to Paris, and only came to me yesterday.— This reply will not, perhaps, be received be fore the day designated for the inauguration of the monument to be erected, “upon the green in the village of Old Chelmsfordi” but however this may be, my heart will be there with its warmest and best sympathies- When that morning arrives, find me where it may, I shall say, well done, sons and grand-sons, daughters and grand-daughters of the Revo lutionary mea of Old Chelmsford. You mark tho anniversary of the Declaration of Indcpen dcncc in a manner most befitting, when you seize it as tbc day on which to inaugurate a monument to tho memory of your fathers, who defended that Declaration with their blood. I have sometimes trembled for the future of my country as 1 have seen thc_ gallant, self- sacrificing men who nchiovod indopondonoo, step one by one from the theatre of their trials and triumphs, until not one probably remains who participated iu the opening conflict.— While they moved among us the bond of na tional brotherhood was strong, and recognized no limits but those of the Union. They knew and felt what the institutions of our noble, uni ted country cost, and what was required to pre serve them. They cherished an habitual rev erence for tho Constitution, and yielded n cheerful obedience to all its requirements and to all laws enacted to carry them into faithful execution. They wisely deferred to the au gust tribunal established to decide ultimatcly questions which might arise, involving consti tutional right and obligation. It will always be said of them that they were strong-minded, stout-hearted, practical. Union-loving men.— From tho North to the South they had fought shoulder to shoulder in tho common cause, and the comprehensive and unselfish patriotism which nerved their arm* for the struggle, warmed their hearts, and inspired their minds during the deliberation which resulted, under the providence of God, in the establishment of the admirable system which has secured to their descendants a degree of individual free dom andhapiness, and of national prosperity and advancement, without a parallel in the his tory of our race. How universally they cher ished and loved every sentiment of the I-are- well Address of the Father of his Country!— They found in it, forcibly expressed, tho views and principles which guided them through life, and which they hoped might never cease to command the regard and confidence of their children. As their words will never again be addressed to our cars, it is well that we omit no means, to honor their memory, to quicken our appreciation of their lessons of wisdom, and to keep alive our admiration of their services and virtues. ... „ . . The connexion in which you allude to my venerated father revives in my mind many pleasing recollections which had been dormant foryeara. His attachment to the Chelmsford people always struck nm as peculiarly strong, especially so, as he had never resided there for any length of time after he was sixteen years old, when, immediately after tho announce ment of the battle of Lexington, he jo.nod the army I observed among tho names appended to the prospectus for the monument, several which wero frequently mentioned by him, and infer that the signers are sons or grand sons of tbc friends of his youth. I hope hereafter to know more of them personally. As late as 1824 there were on one occasion assembled around my father’s table. I ' officers and soldiers who served in the Revolu tion. They were then all resident* of the town, and 14 of them were in the battle of Bunker Hill. Several of the number, I am quite certain, "crenatives of Middlesex «un- ty. They have all passed away, but I triis that Hillsborough may be descendants on an occasion which they cannot fail to recrard with much interest. . , I enclose herewith, a check for $50, which vou will please to place in the hands of the committee as a contribution to the monument.

A Reporter’s Joke. Morgan O'Sullivan, an Irishman, and n cel ebrated Parliamentary reporter, attached to tho London Morning Chronicle some fifty years ago, was as remarkablo for his humor as bis professional ability. Whenever any one of fended Morgan, or got out of favor with him, lie invariably retaliated in tho way of some practical joke, that generally placed his an tagonist in a very ridiculous position, and af forded the humorist satisfaction. In this way he once “got even” with two individuals at the same time, who had excited his ire—namely, the celebrated Wilberforce, then a leading member of the opposition in Parliament, and one Jack Finnerty, a parliamentary reporter of the Morning Herald. Finnerty was fresh from-Tipperary, and quite unacquainted with the characteristics of the different members of Parliament, but he received a good deal of generous professional assistance at the outset of his career from Morgan O’Sullivan. On the occasion now referred to, Finnerty came into the reporter's gallery, at a period of the night when the debates seemed to have slack ened; he concluded to take a doze on one of the benches, and requested his friend to wake him up if anything lively came before the house, and thereupon went off to sleep. Pre sently. Mr. Wilberforce got upon his legs, and addressed a very thrjlling speech before the house. As he progressed, a mischievous idea seized Morgan O’Sullivan, which, as soon as Wilber- forgp sat down, he proceeded to put in practice, thus: Rousing Finnerty from his slumber on the bench, O'Sullivan exclaimed, ‘Jack, Wilber force has just made an extraordinary speech.” “What about?” returned Finnerty, rubbing his eyes, “About the potato; the effect of it on national vivacity,—the great virtues of it as an article of popular diet; proved that the finest kind of men were reared on it, far supe rior to the English.” "Wilberforce said that, did he ?” exclaimed Finnerty; “come let me take his remarks in full from your notes.”— “With pleasure, my dear fellow," replied O' Sullivan, who commenced as if reading from a note book, whilst Finnerty eagerly wrote af ter him in the following vein: “Mr. Wilber force then emphatically remarked, that it al ways appeared to him beyond question, that tho great cause why the Irish laborers, as a body, were so much stronger, and capable of enduring so much more fatigue than the Eng lish, arose from the surpassing virtues of their potato. “That’s what I call eloquence,” inter rupted Jack Finnerty. Morgan resumed, “Aud I have no doubt, (continued Mr. Wilber- fofee) that had it been roy lot to have been born and reared in Ireland, where my food would have principally consisted of that inesti mable root, instead of being the poor, infirm, shrivelled and stunted creature you, sir, and honorable gentlemen now behold me, I would have been a stout, athletic, handsome man. able to carry an enormous weight. “Well done, Wilberforce,” cried Jack, rubbing liis hands in high glee; “go on Morgan.” O’ Sullivan then proceeded in the same vein of pathos and absurdity, but adroitly keeping within the bounds, that Finnerty’s credulity would swallow, until he had placed a most whimsical speech in the mouth of the grave and earnest Wilberforce. Finnerty, with ma ny expressions of thanks to his brother report er, started for the Herald office. On bis way. turning into a tavern close by the House of Commons, where a number of reporters of the different morning papers were regaling themselves, here Jack furnished them all with copies of "Wilberforce’s Speech,” and the hoax found its way the next morning into every paper in London, with the exception of the Morning Chronicle, to which, as a matter of course, the correct report was furnished by O’Sullivan. The public were astounded at the extraordinary speech which, according to all the papers, Mr. Wilberforce had made, and the general opinion was expressed that he was a candidate for Bedlam. The following eve ning, on the speaker taking the chair, Wilber- bertbree rose and claimed the indulgence of the house. “Every honorable member,” be observed, “has doubtless read the speech which I am represented ns having made on the pre vious night. With the permission of the house. I will read it-” (Here the honorable gentle man read the speech amidst the most deafen- g roars of laughter.) “I can assure honor able members that no one could have read this speech with more surprise than I myself did tiiis morning, when 1 found the paper on the breakfast table. For myself, personally, I care but little about it, though, if I were ca pable of uttering such nonsense as is here put into my mouth, it is hightimo that, instead ei being n member of this bouse, I were au tn- mstiTofsomc lunatic asylum. It is for the dig nity of this house that I feel concerned, for if the honorablo members were capable of listen ing to such nonsense, supposing me capable of giving expression to it, it were much more ap propriate to call this a theatre for the perform ance of farces, than a place for the legislative deliberations of the representatives of the peo ple.” This was only one of the many instan ces in which Morgan O’Sullivan paid off, to his heart’s content, members of Parliament and other potential personages, who had, iu some manner or other, provoked the waggish pro pensities of this incurable humorist. The Opposition Candidate lorGo- VERNOR. The Opposition Convention wnieh met in Atlanta, on the 10th inst., nominatcd Warren Aiken, Esq., of Cassvillc, as a candidate for Governor. Mr. Ailen, we suppose, will accept tue nomi nation, and will doubtless make as good a run as any man of his party, ns he is a gentleman of fine character and of acknowledged ability, but in our opinion it was considered merely as a oartv measure, very bad policy to have nom inated any body. But that is their bus,ness and so far as we arc concerned they may fight it out among themselves.—[Corner Stone. the morning sun 6liining upon them, gave the city a peculiarly bright ap pearance. A more beautiful scene than the one described I have seldom witnessed. "While continuing onr journey, we met a Canadian wedding party in their two-wheeled, one-horse vehicles. The bride looked happy. As we approached the lake the road became rougher, and the ladies left the carriage to pick wild raspberries by the wayside. After the summit of tho last hill had been reached, what a lovely prospect appeared before ns!— Throngh an opening in the mountains, we beheld the blue waters of the peace ful lake. ’Twas the calmness of the scene that charmed ns. The little vil lage was qniet, the moutams refreshed with the evening’s rain, and to use the words of Willis— “ The waters slept.” The blue sky above us where snow- white clonds floated hither and thith er, spread like a enrtain over the scene. How appropriate then were the words of the poet David!—how natural for a Christian to use them! “ Day unto day utteret* speech.” After breakfast, two canoes lashed together, with a couple of men to pad dle them, were hired, and we spent the greater part of the day in sailing about the lake. While we were gliding along, the old boatman halloed with all liis might, and the echo changed his rough cry into a low musical hal loo, and sent it back, across the wa ters. The ladies and boatmen were left on a rock, while the gentleman who planned the excursion, and myself rounded an intervening point, and had a bath; bnt the leeches that abound ed there soon drove us from the water. The scenery was so enchanting that we were unwilling to leave it; but there was no alternative. About five o’clock, P. M., we start ed for the city, and as the cottages on the road were passed, we saw the French-Canadiau laborers having their heads adorned—(I knew by their com placent looks that they thought so)— with red cowls, or night caps, sitting smoking contentedly at tho doors, or enjoying their frugal suppers. * v rhe same beautiful scene viewed by ns in the morning, was rewitnessed with this difference—instead of the ri sing, we had the setting sun for an Il luminator. You can paint tho scene for yourself. If it is allowable I would express my gratitude to tho kind brother who planned that delightful excursion; and his wife, with their young lady was th | blessings from his loving father heaven!—how opposed to the Poet idea of prayer— 44 Prayer Is the soai’s sincere desire TTnuttered or expressed. n "We arrived at Riviere Ouelle about four o’clock, and after waiting a few minutes crossed to Hurray Bay.— Bain now began to fall, and the river being quite rough, many unlucky per sons became sea-sick; bnt river-sick in their cases, might be the proper name. The scenery was desolate enongh, for the waves broke on the rocky shore, and the rain driven by the wind beat upon the deck, and drove the passengers into the cabin. How ever, we arrived safely at Riviere Du louj), where n long line of vehicles stretched along the wharf, waiting for passengere from the boat. After Itav ing received them they drove off in the rain. The steamer remained there till mid night, then crossed the St. Lawrence, and entered the month of the fan-famed Saguenay. I arose about four oclock, and fonnd that we had just reached the rock-bound village of Tadomae.— The sun had newly awoke, and the friend, whose company was tho es sence ot enjoyment? and sympathy with the beautiful, true pleasure. Ob Wednesday morning I had the deasnre of meeting Dr. Baker, of Wil- i&msbnrgli, with his two daughters, on board tho 6tcamer Saguenay, and I greatly enjoyed the pleasure of their company till tho termination of my journey—Ha! Ha! or Grand Bay, was readied. At 8 o’clock, A. M., the steamer commenced her journey down the St. Lawrence. The morning was threat ening, and dark clouds wore gathering above us, though ever and anon the sun shone through thorn, and, by fall ing on tho darkened waters and varie gated scenery, produced lights and shadows on a far grander scale than I witnessed at the place alluded to in my last letter. The white foam of Hontmorenc {Rails soon became visi ble on onr left, and having for a back ground ranges of dark bine mountains, then o 1 <Mill capped -a beautiful picture was formed. The highly cultivated Island of Nero Orleans was reached, jassed, and left in the distance. Tho jank of the river on the right side", seemed to be a continuous line of vil lages; and numerous chapels whose spires rose high in the air, gave the prospect a truly picturesque appear ance. After wo had dined, the wind chang ed and blew freshly from the eastward, then the schooners and larger vessels that had lain at anchor, spread their sails and embraced the opportunity to reach Quebec, while those sailing for the Gulf were hindered in their course Thus it is in life; and event causing in- ury to one man, benefits another.— There were a nnmber of Catholic priests on board, and at a certain hour in the afternoon they all began to read their prayers, lifting up their eyes now and again to look around and see what was transpiring. I wondered whether or no God heard them; it seemed to me as if they were reading a lesson to an invisible schoolmaster. How differ ent from a confiding believer asking first blink of his sleepy eyes, ere ho hou *® a,ld ScrBW - himself had come forth from his bed chamber, and appeared above the hor izon, had dispelled the darkness that brooded in unbroken silence over the barren mountains that rose above the river. The region between Tadonsae and Ha! Ha! Bay, is totally uninhabi ted. "When I saw, by the dim light of early morning, in whatever direc tion I looked, mountains rising above mountains in endless succession till the most distant seemed to touch the liori zon, I longed to stand upon the high est peak among them, and view a scene never witnessed in a theatre— behold the sun’s first ray stealing throngh the darkness that shrouds deep valleys never explored by man, and broods over hills majestic in their loneliness The waters of the Saguenay are al most black as ink, and there being fresh breeze blowing, every little wave was foam-capped; the dark water, and white foam contrasting with the bare rock, and leafless trees, apparently stuck in the crevices, for earth, where they could grow, is not visible, formed a strange scene. For many miles the Saguenay has no shore, for the gigantic rocks rise perpendicularly from the water.— Looking at a city, we think of man beholding nature as I beheld her in all her rugged grandeur, we think of God Tho course of the river is so uneven that the traveler when he takes a back ward glance, often cannot see the open ing throngh which the steamer passed and looking forward he perceives no way of egress, for the mountains ap parently meet before him, and he thns could readily imagine himself in a lake. But we were approaching the most deeply interesting place on tho Sague nay—Rock Eternity, In the distance, three divisions giv ing separate summits to this vast, tho’ united pile, are distinctly seen; there fore, the cove where the river flows in, is named Cape Trinity. Tho suhlim- ity of tho Beene must be witnessed to be imagined. A rock,fifteen hundred feet high, rearing aloft like a giant among his fellows. The steamer when passing it, looking insignificant as a mote beside a mountain. The shrill whistle sounded a salute to the rock, and the distnrbed silence sent back the echo. While a hundred wonder ing eyes were raised to scan “Eternity’; and a hundred awe-stricken faces turn ed upwards, such exclamations as the following were heard—“ Isn’t that grand!” “IIow sublime!” “How majestic!” What a sense of nothing ness possessed me, as I looked upon the towering pile! The idea of the rock falling occurred to me, and I felt as if I was an “ atom to infinity.” It is aflirnffd that a one-thousand fathom line dropped in the river at this place, has failed to reach the bot tom. IIow steadfastly immovable the rock must be!—fifteen hundred feet above, and perhaps miles below the surface of the water. I saw then and there, a faint type of tho everlasting immutability of Jehovah. The son was shining brightly, bnt under the shade of that rock, we were shielded from his rays. Emblem of tho blessed Jesus, whose love to the mourning aud “ heavy-laden” soul, is like “theshad- ow of a great rock in a weary land.” Bnt this description fails to do jus tice to the subject, or my own feelings; therefore, I say to all who desire to view scenery, grand in its loneliness— wildly beautiful in its rugge Iness and majestic in its greatness—go to the Saguenay. Ha ! Ha! Bay came suddenly in sight. The abruptness of its appear ance to the early voyagers, caused them to exclaim, “ Ha! ha!”; hence its name. The steamer dropped anchor opposite tho little village, the goods and passengere were landed in a “ bat- tean,” provided by Rob’t. Blair, Esq., of the above named place, and I, after bidding iny dear friends on board adieu, went ashore in a sail boat to meet my mother, sister, and a host of dear rela tives whom I had not seen for a whole year. Yon can imagine the jest. Good-bye. From yours, RIVERDALE. Great Hail Storm in Sew Hampshire.—A letter dated North Sanbornton, N. H., July 27th, says: “We had a terrific thunder storm accompanied with hail. About eighty panes of glass were broken in the front of the house —all the front rooms were deluged: there were handfuls of big stones and glass flying every where I suppose it did not last more than five minutes: The stones averaged as large as a robin’s egg. Everything of the vegetable kind in our immediate neighborhood is killed. The storm did not extend but a few miles. Our wheat, corn, potatoes, garden vegetables and apples are all gone. It is enough to make any oue feel sick to look out of the windows— the trees are all leafless—the grape-vines are all gone, and every thing looks sad and fall like.

Macon, Ga-, June 22d, 1859. 2m A Word to Parents ABOUT ROBERTS’ OOLIO MIXTURE FOR INFANTS. We. as sole agents for supplying the Trade, will take the liberty of saying, that from our own person al experience and knowledge, "Roberts* Colic Mix ture for Infants” is one of the most valuable prepa rations, for the purpose for which it is intended, that we are acquainted with. We have used it for years in our own families and recommend it to onr con- nections, friends and neighbors. It is very prompt in affording relief, and is decidedly preferable to all other preparations of the kind, from the fact thai it docs not produce those very deleterious consequen ces that follow the exhibition ot other remedies con aining Paregoric, uaudanum, Godfrey’s Cordial, kc. The practice of dosing children and infants witli strong opiates cannot be too strongly condemn ed. and when the practice shall have been done a- ly with, there will be less of mortality among them, . .a instead of weak, sickly, cross and puny looking children, fat, chnbby and laughing little faces will greet us on every side. In families where remedies of the kind are obliged to be resorted to, we wonid advise a trial of this one.

T HESE lands are composed of the alternate sec tions on either side of the Pensacola & Geor gia Railroad, granted by the United States and State of Florida to aid in buildiDg this Road. Those now offered are located on that part of tho line extend ing from Tallahassee to Alligator, a distance of 103 miles. Most of them are in the vicinity of, and east of tin* Suwiiiiiift* Ivivt-r. They embrace every va- of soil from lands suitable merely for timber andf naval stores, to the most valuable description for the production of Sea Island and Short Cotton, Sugar, Rice, Com, Tobacco, and other agricultural >roducts of Florida- A large proportion are pine ands, based on clay, with dense and large forest wtn, resembling much the best pine lauds in Ba- • county, Georgia, with the difference in their fa vor that climate and proximity to the seaboard make them admirably adapted for the production of Sea Island Cotton and Sugar. The best recommenda tion of these lands will be found in the crops of corn, sugar cane, long and short staple cotton now grow ing on them and adjacent aud similar lands, which those wishing to purchase are requested to call and examine. The purchasers wilt have access to both the Gulf and Atlantic ports of Florida, to which our roads are now built and being extended, and on the completion of -the connection of the Pensacola & Georgia Road with the Main Trunk Road of Geor gia, the principle part of tbeso lands will be in ten lours travel ot Savannah. Tney are at present in about 24 hours travel of both Charleston and Sa vannah by steamer to Fernandina, and thence by Railroad, Ac., to Alligator. These lands were grant ed for Railroad purposes, and the proceeds of the sales are to be applied to the purchase of iron for tho Road already graded, or the grading of which is in rapid progress of completion. To effect this object, (the purchase of iron,) prompt sales are desirable, and I invito the immediate attention of all persons wishing such property, and particularly to individ uals and companies desirous of purchasing in large quantities.

SPECIAL NOTICE TO BOOK BUYERS. As there are parties of doubtful responsibility ad vertising Gift concerns, and some are making many large promises, under fictitious names, without the intention or ability to fulfil them, hoping, through the popularity of my enterprise, to deceive and plun der the public, a strict sense of duty compels me to warn all against them. And if any are deceived and cheated by them, they should not be so unjust as to condemn me along with them, for they are base im itators of an enterprise that has cost me an immense amount of time and money to place it in the position which it now occupies, commanding an extensive and increaaing trade, approved and endorsed, with the most entire freedom and confidence, by the lead ing Publishing Houses in the Union, whose letters of approval ana endorsement are io my possession, and will be produced and shown at any time, with the greatest pleasure.
