“Poor Sam” is Dead.
Our citizens have for years known “ poor
Sam”—black, idiotic, eccentric Sam—who has
bean employed as a bearer of coffins for Mr. 11.
Coffin, to most of our habitations —he is dead.
He died on Friday night last. He furnished
amusement for many of our young urchins, and
was exceedingly fond of public display’s of the
militarv, processions of firemen, Ac. He was a free
bov, idiotic from his birth ; and Ins absence from
his usual avocation, may be accounted for in this
announcement of his death.
The Postmaster at Rome, Ga.
We cheerfully comply with the request of Mr.
Thos. J. Perry, Postmaster at Rome, and publish
his letter to the Chronicle <£ Sentinel, inasmuch as
Mr. Psrry does not consider that the editor of that
paper is disposed to do him justice :
Post Office, Rome, Ga., 28th March, 1856.
Ed.tor Chronicle rfc Sentinel — Dear Sir : I notice
an editorial in your paper of the 26th iust., under
the head of “ The Mails—Our Subscribers,” in
reference to the non-reception of your paper in due
time, by your subscribers. You take occasion to
sav that you know of no remedy for the evil com
plained of, but the turning out of office of the mis
erable, imbecile administration of the Government.
Allow me to Say, before y’our suggestions be acted
upon, correct your own errors at home. The fault
lies at your own door, to a great extent, at least.
This I am able to prove by the “ miserable, imbecile
administration of the Government.” You frequently
misdirect your packages. I will mention one case
of a recent date. But a few days ago, you plainly
directed the Home package of your dailies to Meal
roe, Ga. Yet you sav that your papers are regu
larly mailed, and if they do not reach their desti
nation in due time, the fault is in the Post Office
Department.
If you wish to put a stop to the numerous com
plaints of your subscribers, commence the work ol
reformation at home, by turning out of office the mis
erable, imbecile administration of the "Chronicle cl
Sentinel office. This being done, stop there until
you hear of further complaints. Let the blame rest
where it properly belongs. Scarcely a week passes
that you are not pouring out your bitter denuncia
tions upon the heads of the Post Office officials.
Why is it that you find more fault than any one
else? Why is it that your subscribers complain
more about the non-reception of their papers than
the subscribers of other papers? Answer these
questions, and oblige yours, respectfnlly,
Tnos. J. Perry, P. M.
The .Mock Governer of Kansas,
The Washington Star favors its readers with a
brief history Robinson, or Dr. Charles E. Robin
son, the mock Governor of Kansas, which presents
the antecedents of that individual in very harmo
nious accord with his presenter recent position and
exploits in Kansas. He is represented as one of
those discontented and unhappy spirit.*, which can
only be satisfied amid scenes of agitation and excite
ment. He reached Sacramento, in California, in 185'.',
and at once headod a party to contest, by force,
the rights of Captain Sutter, to possessions which
he held under a valid Mexican grant. Robinson,
with others, sold many of those valuable lots of
land, and pocketed the proceeds, and left the ten
ants or owners to contend with Hotter in subse
quent law suits.
A tierce conflict followed the rash and lawless
proceedings, iu which the Mayor, .Sheriff, and sev
eral good citizens of Sacramento, as well as several
of Robinson's party, lost their lives, and Robinson
himself was wounded. Under the eseiiement
which followed this event, Robinson was elected a
member of the California legislature. From the
manner in which he represented his constituents,
he was compelled to flee from California. At the
time of his departure, there ware grave charges
affecting his character, introduced into the Legis
lature, but he did not remain to hear the result.
Ilis conduct in Kansas appears to bo dictated by
a total di-regard to law and order; and his sudden
departure from Topeka, may be for a similar cause
to that which induced his premature departure
from California.

Yellow Fevcb at Baltimore. —The Baltimore
papers are earnestly invoking their City Council
to take measures lor warding of!' the visitation of
the scourge which last summer converted Norfolk
into a eliarnel house, and which, it is apprehend
ed, may this summer visit other neighboring cities.
They demand a thorough system of purification of
all tiie streets, alleys, lots, docks, Ac., of the city,
and refer to the adoption of such a system during
the last general visitation of the cholera as the
reason why Baltimore enjoyed a marked exemption
from the scourge.
Tee Earth Growing Uolheii.— lt is stated by
German astronomers that the sun is increasing his
distance from the earth annually; and, in the
course of sixthousand years from the present time,
it is supposed that the distance will be so great
that only an eighth part of the warmth we now
enjoy from the sun will] be communicated to
the earth ; and it will then be covered with eter
nal ice, in the same manner as we see the plains
of the North, where the elephant formerly lived,
and have neither spring nor autumn.
Paying Homage to the Force of Truth. —While
the Know Nothing State Council of Ohio has
abandoned, says the Cincinnati Enquirer, its idea
of requiring foreigners to remain in this country
twenty-one years before they are naturalized, bv
striking it out of its platform, the Black Republi
cans in the Legislature have virtually signified
their approval of the repeal of the Missouri re
striction, or Compromise, as it is called by some,
by voting down a proposition to respire it. Both
divisions of the opposition are paying homage to
the force of truth by throwing overboard some of
their most obnoxious principles, and adopting in
their stead portions of the Democratic platform.
Dr. .Simms’ Second Lecture.
All who heard the deeply interesting lecture of
Dr. Simms, on Thursday evening, felt a strong de
sire to be present at his second lecture, delivered
last evening on the same subject—" The ante-Colo
nial History of the South,” and he was, therefore,
greeted by a large and intelligent auditory. The
subject grew in interest under his skillful" hands,
and every one present was richly rewarded by his
graphic and masterly descriptions. The story of
the adventures of Ponce De Leon, of Hernandez
De Soto, of Lodonikr— of the little French settle
ment on Port Royal Sound, south Carolina, early’
in the sixteenth century, and the touching tragedy
which marked their return voyage to La Belle
France—the sketch of the settlement of St. Augus
tine by the bloody Melendez and his atrocious acts
of cruelty and perfidy upon the Huguenot French,
and the signal reiribution which overtook him—
all these and many other passages from the bloody
chronicles of the past, were delivered with a thril
ling power and vividness of coloring, which made
the lecture one of surpassing interest.
These two lectures will long be remembered as
among the most instructive and pleasing ever pre
sented before the Young Men’s Library Associa
tion.
Americ.au or Know Nothing Party.
The grand general ratification meeting con
vened at the City Hall, last night. The hall was
not crowded, hut yet it was quite a respectable
meeting in point of number as well as talent.
About one hundred and twenty-five persons were
present. Mr. W. 11. Stark was Chairman, and
Mr. Li’Cien LaTastb the Secretarv.
The nomination for Mayor was General George
W. Evans, who received a very large majority of the
votes cast, and yet quite a small vote compared
with “a majority of the legal voters” of that party
in this city.
The members of Council declared to be nomina
ted by the several Ward Councils, were—
First Ward —Foster Blodgf.t, Jr,, A. V. La-
Roche, and Dr. Wu. 11. Terr.
Second Ward —Wu. H. Maharrsy, James M. Dye,
and B. F. Chew.
Third Ward —B. Conley, R. 11. Mat, and J*nx
D. Butt.
Fourth Ward —Wm. H. Goodrich, B. F. Hall,
and Wm. H. Stark.
Gen. Evans very briefly returned his thanks to
the “ American parti-,” for the honor which they
eonferred upon him in constituting him their
standard bearer in the canvass for the Mayoralty
of Augusta.
On motion of Judge Wm. H. Gibson, a Commit
tee of seven were appointed to prepare such fur
ther business for the meeting as might be regard
ed “for the good of the Order,” whereupon Judge
Gibson, Jon.v Hill, Esq., and the requisite num
ber of other gentlemen, whose names we could not
hear, were appointed. The Committee retired, and
after remaining out about long enough to read the
resolutions which had already been prepared, they
retnrnedand reported a preamble and resolutions,
approving of the nominations of Millard Fill
more for the Presidency, and A. J. Donelson for
the Vice Presidency.
The report of the Committee had been submit
ted to the meeting, and upon a call, Col. Cooper,
of Shelbyville, Tenn., came lorward and was ad
dressing the party, when we were compelled to
leave. The gentleman may have delivered a very
■loquent, patriotic and argumentative speech, or
the reverse, for aught we know. When the Colo
nel commenced his speech, our hastv chronicle of
the proceedings must be considered as closed.
We understand that the meeting was subse
quently addressed by Mr. T. C. Cone, Judge Gib
son and Mr. Julies- Ccmmixg, and that the pream
ble aud resolutions offered, were adopted.
If there was any enthusiasm in the meeting, we
did not perceive it. We did expect a more numer
ous attendance of the party, when the grand gen
eral ratifications of candidates for members of
Council, for Mayor of the city, for President, as
t veil as Vice President of the United States, were
o be made.
The Convention.
The Wilmington Journal, in alluding to the Cin
cinnati Convention, says of South Carolina:
“ A large party in that State goes for a Conven
tion, or rather for the presence of South Carolina
in such Convention. This is owing to the interest
felt in the struggle now drawing to a point through
out the country —to the feeling that in the National
Democratic party alone can tile South rely for
safety in the Union ; and, above all, to the admi
ration excited by the nobly independent course of
President Pierce, and the confidence reposed in
him. South Carolina, we believe, will be found
•asting her eight votes for any good Democrat
whom the Cincinnati Convention may nominate;
nut if she herself be represented in that Conven
ion, her presence will be mainly due to a desire to
promote the re-nomination of Gen. Pierce.”
Every word of this is unquestionably true; and
in view of the fact that the people of South Caro
lina, if the choice were with them, would, bv ac
lamation, declare for Gen. Pierce, it is eminently
proper that they should be represented in the Con
vention, when formidable opposition will be ex
hibited to the man of their choice. For many
years past the attitude of affairs was such that it
•ould not be positively predicted of South Caroli
na, that she would certainly support the nominee
■f the Democratic Convention, whoever he might
be. There were prominent aspirants for the nomi
nation, for any one of whom it was very doubtful
whether South Curolina would willingly vote if nom
inated. It «as therefore reasonable that her public
men should object to the committal of the State in
advance, to sustain the action of the Convention.
To have been represented in it would have imposed
an obligation on the party sending delegates, to
support the nominee which could not gracefully—
perhaps not honorably be ignored. But this state
•I" things no longer exists. There can be no doubt
bat whoever is presented by the Cincinnati Con
vention will receive the vote of South Carolina. That
Convention will be the exponent of a party and of
principles that will meet the sanction of that State.
There is no parly in the country that can present a
platform and a candidate that will be as acceptable,
ir that can have the slightest chance for the support
if that State. Every indication that can be gather
ed from the tact, points unerringly to the ccrtainty
hat South Carolina will be with the national
Democracy iu the coming contest. It will be
i contest in which the only formidable compe
tition will be between the Democracy and Black
Republicanism. The Know Nothing organization,
fast dying out, and the sectional remnants of the
old Federal Whig party, will seek to rally their
joint forces on Mr. Fillmore in the hope of holding
the balance of power between the two leading par
ties. It will try and hold together some show of
force, waiting, like Wilkins Micauber, “in the
hope that something will turn up.” But it is the
exponent of no ideas, no policy, no principle with
which South Carolina has any sympathy. There
can be no question but that the people of that State
ire thoroughly with the national Democracy, the
real antagonists of Black Republicanism—with
that organization which alone has the power to
crush out that foul embodiment of fanaticism,
discord and treason to the Constitution.
This being so, there is every proprigo in the
voice of South Carolina being heard in the selec
ion of the nominee whose name is to be inscribed
on the banner under which the constitutional men
of the country will march to the battle. The name
of any national Democrat on that banner will se
cure her support. But she would hail with an en
thusiasm no other name would inspire, that of our
present Chief Magistrate, as the sure pledge of
victory, security and peace.
Motion of the Waves. —Prof. Bache, by a series
of calculations, has demonstrated that the waves
of the sea travel at the rate of six and a haif miles
a minute. The first wave occasioned by the earth
quake at Simoda, Japan, in December, 1854, reach
ed San Francisco, forty-eight hundred miles, in
twelve hours and sixteen minutes.
Adulterations of Quinine. —The high price
says the Medical Gazette . at which sulphate of
quinine can now be had in its purity has led to its
extensive adulteration. Physicians and the public
should be on their guard, and only obtain the arti
cle from safe and reliable hands, else they may be
using areenie, peperine, or strychnine ; for all these
are employed for adulterating purposes.

Sugar.—The growth of Sugar in Louisiana for
the last year, say 1855, proves to have been 231,427

This shows a deficiency of a fraction over 33 per
cent, from last year, and a deficiency of nearly 49
per cent, front the great crop of 1853. The fol
lowing figures give the crop for five years :

The Hible Union.
yfr. Editor: In the Constitutionalist, of yesterday
morning, is a clipping from the Christian Index,
stating, upon the authority of one of its exchanges,
that “ Dr. Maclat had resigned the Presidency of
the Bible Union, and disclaimed any further con
nection with it.” It also observes that the ‘‘rea
son assigned, is the heretical expressions that are
creeping into the new translation of the Bible”—
that the “representatives of eight different denom
inations are making a very curious Baptist Bible,"
Ac., fcc.
I am authorised, by information direct from the
Bible Union Department, New York, to say that
these statements are wholly devoid of truth. Dr.
Maclat has not resigned the Presidency! To say
that the “representatives of eight different denom
inations” would make a Baptist Bible, is simply
absurd. And to admit that these same evangeli
cal denominations would suffer “ heretical expres
sions” to creep into the new translation, is to pay
a poor compliment to their orthodoxy or their dis
cernment.
The denominations referred to are the Old School
Presbyterians, Episcopalians, Disciples, Metbxlists,
Ar Ref d. Presbyterians, Seventh Day Baptists,
Herman Reformed, and Church of England. It is
presumed that these are sufficiently sound in the
faith to counteract the “heretical” proclivities of
the Baptists! J. S. Lamar.
Dr. M’Lane’s Celebrated Vermifuge
AND LIVER PILLS.—A singular combination,
but very effectual, as the following will show :
New York, Nov. 20, 1552.
Knowing, from experience, the valuable qualities
of Dr. M'Pant's Vermifuge <:nd liver Pills, pre
pared by Fleming Bros., Pittsburgh, I have for
some time back considered it my duty, and made
it my business, to make those articles known wher
ever I went among my friends. A short time ago
I became acquainted with the case of a young girl,
who seemed to be troubled with worms and liver
complaint at the same time, and had been suffering
for some two months. Through my persuasion she
purchased one bottle of Dr. AT Lane’s I 't-rmifuge,
aud one box of Liver Pills, which she took accord
ing to directions. The result was, she passed a
large quantity of worms, and thinks that one box
more of the Pills will restore her to perfect health.
Her name and residence can be learned by calling
on E. L. Tiieall, Druggist, corner of Rutger and
Monroe streets.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR.
M’LANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manu
ufuctured by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa.
All other Vermifuges, in comparison, are worth
less. Dr. M’Lane’s genuine Vermifuge, also his
celebrated Liver Pills, can now be had at all re- !
spectable drug stores. Hone genuine without the ,

GEORGIA MEDICATED SOAP.
I The Empire State of the South still ahead in j her
Improvements.
f HAIIIS article will compare favora
£ bly with any of like character 3c
in the known world.
I find that by putting it in the form TOSsfIT
of a Soap it gives it a decided advau 'ISS*
tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment,
or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis
eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir
tues from being impaired by age or climate, and
renders it very convenient for use.
Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm
! less, as it contains no mercurial or other prenara
j tion injurious to the patient. This article, there
| fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers,
I Outs, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles,
j Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt
j Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore
j Eyes, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac.,
extract scurf and dandruff from the head, thereby
: preventing premature baldness. It is also one of
the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will
cure the Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract
tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a
superior dentrifice to the teeth. For shaving soap,
it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and
curing such sores as may be on the face.
In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and
particular old sores, this soap has proved a balm
1 indeed, by its wonderful healing powers.
I can procure certificates innumerable were it
i necessary, but believing that a single cake is only
j requisite to prove its efficacy as above stated, anil
; wishing to avoid everything like humbuggery, I
I leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not
! doubting they will then declare this to be the ne
\ plus ultra of the age in the healing art.

H. G. FARRELL’S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT
B'S well known to possess the most wonderfully
healing, penetrating and stimulating properties,
and bv its promptness in effecting cures, which
previously had resisted all other medicines, ad
ministered by the most scientific physicians, has
placed it far beyond any similar remedy ever in
| traduced to the people of the United States. It
; stimulates the absorbents to increased action, and I
! thus enables nature to throw off disease—it pene
trates to the bones, adding strength and activity to i
the muscles —it is powerfully anodyne and thereby
allays nervous irritation, producing a delightfully ;
phasing sensation through the whole frame. Owing
to its remarkable antieeptic properties, it purifies
and neutralizes that poisonous, corrosive principle
which renders old ulcerous sores so difficult to heal;
it therefore is peculiarly adapted to their speedy
cure. This Liniment from its penetrating anil
strengthening qualities has been found to be a spe
cific for Paralysis or Palsy, Whiteswellings and
diseased joints, and in fact all complaints invol
ving the muscular system. It has cured cases of
Rheumatism of twenty to thirty vei*rs’ standing,
and affections of the Spine wherein the entire spi
nal column was so crooked and distorted, that tlie
! patient could not walk or stand without artificial
! support. Numerous cases of Palsv have been
cured when the flesh had withered, leaving nothing
but the dried skin and bone, and the limbs totallv
| without use or feeling. For Children with Croup \
ii is of inestimable value, rubbed and bathed over
the throat and chest. If applied freely on the chest
i it never fails to give reluj in the severe Coughs ah
| tending Consumption, Asthma and Colds. It heals
wounds speedily—will cure Sealdhead, Mange, etc.
Planters and Farmers will find it a most valuable
medicine to be applied to Horses and Cattle for
•Sprains, Bruises, Lameness, Stiff Joints, Sweeney,
Dry Shoulder, Wounds, Burns, Splint, Chafes or
Galls, Hardened Knots on the flesh, etc.
i
Look out for Counterfeits '
| The public are cautioned against another couu- t
I terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called
M . B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan
j gerous of ail the counterfeits, because bis having
> the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good \
j faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex
j ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error :
; when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil
j effects.
| The genuine article is manufactured only by 11.
