Wide Awako debut in blood letting North
ern XVeedom of Speech
The Wifle-Awakes took to their clubs Iasi
work ill New York, and battered the heads of
sundry lull and Everett men, for hurrahing
for Hell. The difficulty occurred before the
Non York Hotel, opposite which is a club
room of the Wide-Awakes. Cranston,of the
New Y ork Hotel, is a democrat and a national
man, and some time ago very properly refused
to allow one of his chimniea to bear tbe weight
of their sectional and abolition flag. On a note
to the Tribune correcting the statement of that
paper, that the cheers for Bell and Everett pro
ceeded from any guest in the house, Greeley
lays down the law of the Wide-Awakes thus:
“•The demonstration mndo on Tuesday even
ing bv persons who seemed to be guests of the
New-Vork Hotel, inasmuch as they tilled its
balconies, and crowded around its main entrance
—n demonstration which the proprietor could
have terminated, so far as the balconies were
concerned, had he been aware of it, as, from
hia card, we presume he was not—such a de
monstration may have been a brave thing, but
it was precisely one of those cases of valor
where discretion had better be consulted.—
The Wide-Awakes are a very thoroughly or
ganised body of young men filled with the vig
or arid the excitability of youth. Is it quite a
prudent thing to risk a collision with such a
body ? Is it not possible that some much more
Serious result may happen both to Cranston’s
house and Mr. Cranston’s guests than occurred
on Tuesday evening, should such a demonstra
tion be repeated? At a matter of caution, tee
Suggest that any public exjsression of the Anti
Jtej>uldieanism of the establishment had better
not be permitted to yet outtidc of it, except by
May of the chimneys.' It goes olf there as
harmless as the smoke, hurts nobody, and no
body complains. But, unless Mr. Cranston is
disposed to sec an influx of company in a guise
and with a purpose which would make any
tavern-keeping soul to tremble, we advise him,
for peace’ sake, either to turn out of doors or
keep quiet the infatuated fools, both men and
women, who end-.sivored to stir up a riot there
on Tuesday evening.”
That’s the ticket. It is an open avowal of
a purpose to terrorize, and comes from a paper
loud mouthed aho.it 'free speech,” and excori
ating in denouncing the South for impinging
upon it New York will get her fill of the
Wide-Awakes before she is done with them.

OLD TIMES.
1838 by many noble and distinguished persons of til
countries, for tbe abolition of tbe slave trade and of
slaveiy, I have carefully examined the statutes of
that association, and am compelled to decline the
protfered honor as incompatible with my principles
and opinions. At tbe same time, 1 must bet; you to
tender tbe Committee of presentation, who have
paid me this unmerited compliment, the assurance
of my grateful regard,- and I pray you also, sir, to
accept for yourself my acknowledge meats for the
letter to which I now respond. In my own conntry
my name bas been much connected with this very
■uniect. but always in opposition to a mistaken phi
lanthropy, which, in my judgment, his assumed to
be wiser than Providencu—stronger than God-aand
which, wherever triumphant, has brought forth
weeds, ashes and blood as its only fruits, as witness
the emancipation of St. Domingo and the British
Vfeit Indies, and the horrors of the coolie traffic in
red skin* to substitute for the black. It is no re
proach to tho eminent names thst figure in your as
sociation to say thst we, w ho live under tbe system,
must comprehend it better than those who either
draw upon their imaginations tor their facts or accept
them from the poisoned lips and pens of onr native
traducera, themselves equally ignorant or heedless
of tbo truth.
Let them reflect whether any large community
would willingly and cheerfully five iu and die for tho
permanence of an institution which really was at
once a misfortune and a crime, and a clinging curse
to themselves and their children. Even now the
spectacle is presented to the world of eight millions
of white freemen deliberately discussing Ihe disrup
tion of a beloved confederacy, ns an alternative to
bo preferred to the abolition of slavery in the South
ern States of the American Union. This alone should
conviuce foreign philanthropists of the hopelessness
oi ihe task they have undertaken, in imitation of the
benevolent ladies in -Esop's fables—“to scrub the
Etbiop white"—even did not all previons experience
teach the same lesson. Nor are these sentiments
strange as coming from au American citizen. Tbe
fathers of our republic refused to recognise either
thatVondition"wh’ich he hassver*occt?lto
hieroglyphics were engraved npon tbe rock tablets
of Egypt—(where he figures ever as a bearer of bur
dens ; never as a conquerer or a king)—down to the
present day, when France seeks "apprentices,” and
America retains slaves in his descendants. With
regard to the slave trade, America first declared it
piracy, and at this moment her vessels are busy in
suppressing the traffic. Should not an American
prefer to follow in the footsteps of the ssges and pa
triots ofthe Revolution rather than in those of a fac
tion, which in his own conntry has as its chief proph
ets an elderly female romancer and a male “llelisa-
rins, who have paraded thtir "stars" and their
"stripes" over Europe for the disgrace and defama
tion of their native land ? From these reasons,
which I might, but will not, iiiultiply, you will per
ceive, sir, that I oonld not consistently or honorably,
either accept or be silent under the ombarrassing
circumstances in which your communication placed
me. But while responding w'th perfect frankness,

whose motives I do not question, and remain, with
sentiments of high consideration, your obedient ser-

months that ho lingered, and upon his dying
bed, he said, and persisted under oath, that a
man named Wcstly Woodward, whom lTe well
knew, and who was present at the t'rne he was
shot, was the one who fired the fatal shot.—
Woodward was subsequently tried and acquit

the murderer, and was brought out upon a
writ of habeas corpus and discharged. He has
since been rc-arrested, and a truc-bill found
against him by the Grand Jury, and will now
undergo a trial for the murder; upon his con
viction or acquittal, other serious charges
against other parties will depend. There has
been much hard swearing in the several casos
connected with this murder, by parties whose
prosecution for paying may depend upon the
result of tins trial. The peculiarities of the
case, and the notorious character of the accus
ed, will attract a large crowd to hear the trial.
Levy is a likely young man of respectable
family connexions, and but for liis allurement

moving in respectable society, instead of being
incarcerated in a dungeon, and in danger of a

MR. BARBIERE IN NEW YORK.
The New York Herald of the 27th ulL an
nounces the arrival of Mr. Barbiere, and com
ments upon the Macon Fair as follows:—
The Hon. Joseph Barbiere, who was sent to
Europe in June last, as Commissioner from the
State of Tennessee, on the question of “Direct
Trade,” was a passenger by the Adriatic, and
has taken rooms at the Everett House. AYe
learn that so far as the initiative is concerned,
the mission is a complete success. Sir. Bar-
bicre visited over two hundred and fifty manu
factories i.i Belgium and Germany, ami succee
ded, by personally presenting the subject to
the manufacturers, in inducing them to make
trial shipment. Accordingly, the Henry
leaves Antwerp this month for Savannah, Geor
gia, with a cargo of assorted goods of Belgian
and German manufacture. These fabrics will
bo exhibited at a Fair to bo held in December
next at Macon. Thus, then, this next commer
cial movement may bo regarded as a fixed fact

TIIE MACON MUNICIPAL ELECTION.
The Herald has a number of peripatetic
correspondents, who make some remarkable
discoveries. Here is one of them:—
LOCAL ZLECTIOSS — CONCENTRATION.
An election take* place in Macon, to-morrow (Sat
urday), for Mayor. The Breckinridgers run a tick
et, and tho "Bell-Dug*" run another. TbU i« the
fintfuion demonitration in the State, and its result
i* looked for with anxiety. The Brecks have nom
inated Dr. Lobelia Thomson, a very popular gentle
man and an eminent physician of tho high pressure
principle. lie is a lecturer, and, of course, a favorite
with the ladles. As a lecturer, he possesses steam
.of “Great Eastern" power, but is supplied with tbe
patent safety valves and tbe new-fangled brass
' stopcocks. Cayenne pepper. No. 6, is an element in
Ids favor. Tho “Bell and Dugs" have nominated
another physician in the regular, or allopathic pro
fession. The contest’* as much between lobelia and
calomel as it is between tbe Brccks and the fosion-
ists; and as it is likely that there may be a disagree
ment among the doctors, the people will themselves
step in to choose. ,

Correspondence of the Telegraph
Hr. Editor :—Since you thought proper to
suppress the article from “Old Times,” which
was handed in for publication on Friday last,
I claim the right of a defence from some per
verted statements that appeared in an article,
under the head of “Dr. Harrison’s Vindica
tion,” in which he evinced so little regard for
the truth, as to render himself ineligible, to
that courtesy and respect that is due from one
gentleman to another.
Dr. Harrison evidently endeavored to direct
the public mind from the charges that were
preferred against him, in willfully perverting
the language of the author to make' his pro
fessed quotations read as he wished them to.
I accused him of deceiving the City Council,
by leaving the impression on their minds that
he would willingly do the small pox practice
for §200 a case, and then bringing in a bill for
nearly a third more than he had intimated that
he was willing to do it for.
Ilis reply to this charge is, that he said noth
ing against Dr. Hammond's bilL I charged
him with bringing in a bill for mileage, after
the City Council had voted him all that she
thought he was entitled to, and this charge lie
positively denies, by saying he never sent in
any such bill. AA'ell now the city voted him
§1,400 at first, and after the council met again,
he had placcdtohiscrcdit§126morc! Where
did this money come from, Dr. Harrison ? Did
you not petition the Council through your
friend, for mileage! and did you not get §120
on account of that petition ? And yet you de
ny this charge. I did accuse the Doctor of
willful negligence in not properly protecting the
guard of the small pox cases.
Dr. Green’s articlo precludes the necessity
of my saying anything more on this subject
XW Hawwiosm imylng 4VA*ti> ihl> imprftff.
sion that the only complaint against him is,
that he charged the city too much, and here
let me ask the Doctor, why he did not tell us
what he had charged others for similar service.
AYhat did you charge Mr. Rose, and Mr. De
Loache, and what did you charge for going to
Dawson, Terrill county, last winter ? You an
swer these questions, and I will prove that
you have charged others less than the usual
fee, for visiting a case of billious fever.
In an editorial of the Journal & Messenger
of about two weeks past, the editor (ignorant
ly I trust) s lid that Dr. Harrison had charged
but little more than half what other physicians
have charged, notwithstanding he visited his
patients two miles in the country. And it was
to this statement that I alluded when I said
the truth had been perverted
Dr. Harrison not being able to defend him
self from the charges, attempted to divert the
attention of his readers by perverting every
sentence in the charges that was urged against
him.
AYhat could be more dishonorable and un-
gcntlemanly than to publish such a falsehood as
this “ since Old Times acknowledges that lie
has perverted ihe truth, <tc?” Did Old Times
ever .make such acknowledgements? Such
contemptible, mean and unprincipled conduct
needs no farther condemnation than the act
itself will stamp upon the perpetrator.
Dr. Harrrison’s friends think his defects hare
arisen in the head, not the heart I am charit
able enough to give him the benefit of tho
doubt as I have for a longtime, thought he was
suffering from what the French call raniollis-
sement (softening) of the brain, and his effort
at a vindication has made the diagnosis perfect
ly clear.
His allusion to the comparative virtues of
pepper tea and iced lemonade is an effort at sar
casm that would make an Ethiopian child
blush. -
lie says wo had better make fair weather
with the Mayor if wc wish liis favors. AYe
can say, unlike our neighbor, that wc liavo nev-
mending the Examiner to each and all of our
members, as an excellent family newspaper,
every way well worthy of their consideration
and support.
Resolved, That a copy of the above resolu
tions be furnished each of the city papers for
publication. G. AV. SIMS, Secretary.
Bai.tlvoue, Sept 27th, 1860.
There was a meeting of the upper wards
of the city last night in favor of Bell & Everett,
at which, among others, the Hon. Joshua Hill,
of your State, made the leading speech. He
seems to be an old stager in stump oratory, and
his speech on this occasion was probably the
duplicate of many already made in support of
his party. lie was well received, and his ad
dress was throughout, patriotic and free from
acrimony. His allusion in a portion of his re
marks however, to the lose origin of Ex-Gov-
! omor Johnson, of Tennessee, when relating an
anecdote of the latter, and Mr. John Bell, was
J regarded by those in the crowd, who understood
the fling, as in bad taste.
The meeting at Easton, was very large and
enthusiastic. Mr. Yancey’s speech was full of
inspiration, and has left a deep impression, and
stirred up to active exertion, the people of the
Eastern shore of Maryland, in the cause of
Breckinridge & Lane. AYe are to have a mass
meeting here on Friday night, when it is expect
ed Mr. Yancey will speak. The most intense
anxiety is felt by all parties to hear him. Ho
will speak at alarge meeting in Frederick City,
and then take the stump in the old Tenth Le
gion, where some division has occurred among
the old cohorts of Democracy in that heretofore
United section of the old dominion.
The Park” again.
After mailing my letter yesterday, it was
correctly rumored that Mr. Rodgers had again
kicked in the traces, and backed out from accept
ing the §121,000 tendered him as a cash pay
ment for Druid Hill. The change of phases in
tho negotiations for the purchase of this prop
erty are so frequent, as to be almost ridiculous,
and but for the lack of other news I should not
repeat them Should this rumor prove correct,
it is probable no other efforts will be made in
Uiat direction, and the subject of a great city
Park will be left at rest for some time to come.
"A Poor Little Streep.”
A piteous case of death from cruel neglect,
and bard usage occurred here on Tuesday night.
V poor little negro chimney sweep was found
dead in a damp cellar of the house of his master,
and from the evidence upon the Coroner’s in
quest, it appeared that his cruel and hard heart
ed owner, had put this poor child, half suffoca
ted with soot, and dust, into a ivet callar to
sleep where be baa contracted a latal cold, and
that he had been severely beaten the night pre
vious to his death, for coughing. The Jury
found a verdict, that he came to his death by
congestion of the lungs, from sleeping in the
damp cellar, neglect and cruel treatment—
Richards, the master of the boy, was arrested
and held to bail for a further examination by
tho Grand Jury. II.
THE PRINCE HUNTING PRAIRIE IIENS,
Dwight Station, III., Sept. 24.—Yesterday
Lord Renfrew and party attended the Old School
Presbyterian Church and heard a sermon on
the text, “ Blessed arc the meek.” The rest
of the day was spent in answering letters
brought by special messenger from the Queen.
They breakfasted to-day at 5J, went out for
prairie hens at 13, and •lunched at the log hut
of AYTn. Herman on broiled chickens, bread
ami blitter. They arc delighted with the prai
ries and the abundance of game. There is a
total absence of restraint, and tire party is jolly
in the extreme. The Prince shoots well, but
has the peculiarity of pulling the trigger witq
his little finger.
SPAIN AND MEXICO.
The information received from Havana via New
Orleans leaves little doubt that Spain meditates
a war upon Mexico. An expidition of 20,000
men is said to bo fitting out, destined for Mexi
co; and the fact that the Governor-General of
Cuba, on the 14th inst., caused to be published
officially the law of the last Cortes ordering the
enlistment of 25,000 new recruits for the Span
ish army, gives additional plausibility to this
statement. An iutention of this sort has
been repeatedly betrayed by the Spanish gov
ernment within tho last few years, and it would
seem that now, with tho Morocco war conclu
ded, and no other employment offering for her
naval and military forces, she has resolved upon
acquiring fresh glories on this side ofthe Atlan
tic. The ostensible cause of quarreling is the
capture of the bark Maria Conception, whicli
formed a part of the celebrated “ Maria Expedi
tion” from Havana superadded to the old griev
ance, consisting of the slaughter of several
Spanish subjects at Cuernavaca.
"The interposition of Spain at the present
juncture in Mexican affairs, inay suffer to save
the Mexican government from extinction, though
at last accounts the Liberal force was gathered
around the capital in very large numbers. The
sending of Gen. Pacheco, by Spain, as Minister
to Mexico, and the recognition by that function
ary of Miramon as the legitimate ruler of the
Republic, is a significant prelude to the events
which seem to be approaching,—Journal of
Commerce.
Many years ago there was organized in Low
ell, Massachusetts, one of the best and most
popular military companies in the State, known
as the Mechanic Phalanx.’
Captain James D—was its first commander.
He could neither write nor speak so well as he
could fight, as was not said of ‘Old Hickory,”
of patriotic memory. But ho had his perils to
encounter. On a great occasion a military
company from Salem, the whilom City of Witch
es, was to visit the ‘Spindle City,’ and a grand
military and civic reception was voted.
Captain D—,for the reason already hinted at
as he was to be the prominent man < f the occa
sion on ‘our side,' went to a subaltern and plead
ed for a toast, short and to the point, that lie
might commit it to memory for tho uieinorablo
occasion. After understanding his wishes, it
was duly prepared, as follows: 'The Salem
Light Infantry ! Let the enemies of our coun
try look on such troops and tremble !’
Capital!’ said the Captain, ‘that'll do finoly.’
At length the time arrived, and thousands
were in attendance. The festive board was
crowned and crowded. Captain D—was in his
glory. AA’hen called on to give the compliment
of welcome, he rose migcstically, and a hush was
on the multitude. lie broke the silence by roar
ing, in - stentorian voice, "Fellow soldiers and
fellow citizens! I give you, our distinguished
guests, the Salem Light \Infanlry ! Let ‘Our
Country’ look on sit eh troops and tremble 1
There was no need of cannon to respond to
that sentiment The roav of the multitude, in
whicli our 'distinguished guests’ most heartily
joined, well nigh ‘cracked the welkin.’

Baltimore, Sept 28th, 1860.
Destructive Fire.
A Arc was discovered about 3 o’clock yes-
terday morning in the upper story of the store
of G. C. Griffith, No. 77, west Baltimore street
The upper story of the building was occupied
by J. B. Rose 4 Co., printers. The fire soon
caught the house next door to the one in which
it originated, occupied by Messrs. Barrett &
Dobict, as picture frame makers; it then com
municated to the next adjoining house, of Mr.
George Stcinbach. The two first buildings
were entirely consumed, with most of their
contents; the latter was considerably damaged.
The loss of Mr. Griffith will be over §9,000—
that being the amount of his insurance. The
Messrs. Roses have a policy of §1,000 which
will cover their loss. The Messrs. Rcany (the
owner of one of the houses) Stcinbach, Barrett
& Debiet, and Mr. Thomas Sewell, (the owner
of another one of the houses) are all secured
by insurance to the full amount of their losses.
The total damage by the fire, is estimated to ho
§12,000, which will fall upon the New Market
Insurance Company Df this city; the National,
(foreign) the Lynchburg, (foreign) and Fire
man’s and Fire Insurance Company, of Balti
more. This is the most extensive fire which
has occurred during the last 12 months, and
"tthc work of an incendiary. But for the de-
.‘<jgc of water thrown upon it by the steam en
gines, this fire would have probably been ten
fold more destructive.
Burglary.
The merchant Tailoring establishment of
AA T m. A. Collison, Esq., was entered last night
by burglars, and robbed of several hundred
er boot-licked or pandered to any man or set of i dollars worth of ready made clothing, a large
men for favor, and if our neighbor could say amount of goods in. the piece was found in the
as much he would be in a much better state y ar( ] this morning, packed up ready for reino-
of mind than ho is to-day.
lie say6 his fee was coveted; if it had been
this article would never have been written, for
val. But it is supposed the robbers were de
terred from returning for a second load, by dis
covering the police in the vicinity. It was a
Tiie Empress Eugenia at aAVatekixoPlace.
—It is stated that during the past summer the
the Empress of Franco was at the Eaux Bon
nes, a watering-place at the foot of the Pyrenees,
and might be seen romping up and down the
mountains, trudging at times ns far as tho snow
that lies all summer along tlicir sides, picking
her way on foot by the spring, not ot all afraid
of losing her dignity, but pretty sure of finding
health and spirits; careless how sho muddied
her feet, but yet, with her dress pinned up in
nonchalant style, so that it need not be unnec
essarily soiled. It must have been an infinite
relief to her to escape from etiquettes for a while,
and scamper over tho hills like a sensible girl
once more. Her tour was infinitely more agree
able than tho tedious pageants and parades to
which the poor Prince of AVales has, during the
summer, been made a victim.
Chief Justice Taney Dexousces Squatter
Sovebekinty.—Tho Philadelphia Pennsylran-
ian states upon undoubted authority, that this
venerable and distinguished Chief Justice of
the.Supreme Bench of the United Sates, who
pronouccd the opinion in the Dred Scott case,
denounces Douglas’ squatter sovereignty as the
worst heresy. The Chief Justice will support
Breckinridge and Lane.
The Ikbepbessible Ad.ui Isaacs Again.—
Miss Adah Isaacs Mcnkin, alias Mrs. Ilccm.n,
has commenced a suit for divorce against John
C. Heenan. As the Benicia Boy has always
declared ho was never married to the- eccentric
Adah, the idea of her suing for a diyorc® is rath
er rich.

said to tho AA r olverccn.

DUt Sms—Y’onrsof the 13th Inst., has been re
ceived, its contents noted, Ac. In reply to your en
quiry iu regard to tho Reese’s Manipulated Guano ;
as a fertilizer—I am well pleased so far as I have 1
tested its use. I applied about 100 ibs. per acre on l
land that was badly worn, and not of tho best when
fresh. The product of the field where the Guano
was applied is over 800 lbs. of seed cotton per acre.
The same kiud of land without the Guano produced
about 400 lbs. per acre. My mode of applying the
Guano was by depositing it in the drill before bed
ding up the land, I have uot tried its use on corn,
but have no doubt but it willsucceed well. I shall
use it pretty extensively on iny next crop.
Yours Respectfully,

Certs dealt qf Mr. B. Maussenet, a svett bunco and highly
respectable citizen of Macon, Ga.
Macox, C-a., March 19,1860.
M ESSRS. S. W. FOWLE & CO.:—Gentlemen:—Be-
lfcving In the great virtue of your renowned Bal
sam of Wild Cherry, Icheerfullveoniplv with the request
ot your travelling agent in adding ray testimony to the
many which you have already received. I have been ac
quainted with this medicine for many years and have
always heard it spoken of in the highest terms. A brother-
in-law, who at one time was much reduced with a severe
and obstinate cough, was restored by it, after otherrem-
edies had failed. I have also used it for myself and
children for obstinate coughs and colds with an uniform
and happy result, and therefore recommend it confidently
as the best lung medicine within my knowledge.
Yom-s respectfully,
E. MAUSSENET.
The above is but a moderate expression ofthe estima
tion in which this remarkable throat and lung remedy
is held by the thousands who hare used it.
“ Probably no medicine has ever reached to so extend
ed a popularity in this conntry or has accomplished so
great an amount of good.”—Ballou's Pictorial
Caution to Purchasers—The only genuine if?etar'e Bal
sam has the written signature or " I Butts” and the
printed one of the Proprietors on the outer wrapper; all
other is vile and worthies*.
