Captain ol Oglethorpe Infant!y.
We are pleased U* learn that Judge K. Starnes
was unanimously elected Captain of the Oglethorpe
Infantrv at a meeting held last evening. A more

not have been selected to fill the place of the ranch
lamented Andrew J. Miller.
Colton’s Atlas.
Tiie Agent is agaiu in our city prepared to dis
pose of copies of this comprehensive and splendid
Atlas. We cannot too highly commend this costly
and elegant enterprise to public attention. It is a
most creditable specimen of American art, and
embraces all that the inquiring miud desires to
know, of the geography of the world. It is a
complete panorama ol' every nation and territory
explored by and known to civilized man, and is
accompanied by much valuable statistical informa
tion concerning the most interesting countries.
The work is well worth the price asked for it, und
the money thus laid out will be a permanent in
vestment, securing valuable information to the
purchaser and to his children, and his children s
children.
American Council ot Georgia.
The Council met in Macon on Wednesday last,
and adopted the following resolutions :
Ufnob-td, 1. That the State Council, now in ses
sion, abolish all obligations of secresy which have
heretofore characterized it as a secret political Or
der, and that it do now resolve itself into an open
Convention of the American Party of Georgia.
2. That this Convention recommend to the party,
that in lieu of the Secret Councils which have here
tofore been organized in the respective counties, an
Association be established and kept up in each
countv, whose object shall be to promote the inter
ests of the American Party.
R-mlved, That the State Council having dis
solved, this Convention deem it inexpedient to
take anv action at this time in relation to the nomi
nations made by the National Convention in Feb
uarv last, but we leave it to the American party of
this Suite to hold a Convention at stich time as mav
be deemed expedient by the Central Executive
Committee, to take such action in reference to said
nominations as may be deemed advisable.
The Counci! passed resolutions complimentary
to officers of the late and present Councils, and
adjourned nine die.
It is stated hv the Macon M-m- nger that the dele
gates were 1 n favor of supporting Filljjorb and
Donelson .
New Financial Proposition.
The Constitution of the United States provides
that ‘ no State shall make any tiling but gold and
silver coin a tender in payment of debt.:.’
This salutary proposition has been sanctified bv
time, and been approved by the experience ot tin
practical men of our country, from the day of its
adoption. Hut it seems to be too old Fogyish for
some of the Blast men of this fast ago. New
schemes of making money plenty, and of reliev
ing that prevalent want of humanity, the means
of commanding the necessaries and luxuries ot
life, hr processes unknown to the good olil days ot
our fathers, are springing up in the minds of on
, terprising reformers.
Tne <Siro>ticU Jt- Sentinel has recently called to
the aid .if its editorial columns, a gentleman who
wields a ready and accomplished pen, in matters
of foreign politics, and European theories of gov
ernment and social order. A foreigner by birth,
it is not surprising that be should borrow from
abroad some ideas winch are not exactly conso
nant with republican notions. The idea of making
monev more abundant, by the use of paper issues,
is shadowed forth iu the following paragraph, con
cluding an article in the Chronicle & Sentinel, ot
Thursday, entitled the power of money :
“The daw n ofbetter times will come when money
is the useful servant instead of the master and ty
rant of man. This can never be the case while
we are dependent on gold and silver as the sole
representatives of value. Money should repre
sent a given portion of the general wealth of a
State, and as the wealth increases so should the
money in exact proportion. In those days, paper
money instead of being promissory notes must
be like gold and silver, bona tide money, and un
der the direct supervision of the State. Then
trade would increase ten fold; manufaetcri -
would tlourish in our midst, and taxation would
be taken from the superabundance instead ot
the necessities of man. The true powers of mo
ney have vet been hidden from the sight of law
makers.”
Whether making paper, bona fid* money, in
si ead of mere promissory notes, is a task to be en
trusted to the several States of the Union, or the
Congress of the United States, is not here direct
ly disclosed. The experiment of the United States
Bank stands up in contrast with the operations of
the sub-treasury system, and is rather a warning
to the people against the repetition of that scheme
of manufacturing bona fid. money out of paper.
Then again the pet bank system demonstrated in
ISIS and IS:', 6, some of the evils of the States un
dertaking topractice on the theory that gold anil
silver was an inadequate basis for the supply of
money to the people.
We should like to see the ideas of the new edi
tor of the Chronicle <fr St ntinel , as conveyed in the
paragraph quoted, elaborated to some extent.
Any feasible and constitutional plan of making
money ten times more plentiful, would be im
mensely popu’ar, and will be hailed by a perfect
avalanche of enthusiasm.
How strange it is to see this idea of making pa
per luma fide money, in the editorial columns ol
i paper that lias kept up so pertinacious a war
upon the “wild cat” Hanks!
ssf“ The Selma Reporter, of the Kltli instant,
thinks there are about 4000 bales cotton that will
vet reach that market.
Mr. Mf.li. would respectfully invite persons
interested in the improvements of farming uten
sils, and the public generally, to witness the oper
ation of his improved Blow Stock, which will be
id work at any time of the day, at the residence of
Mrs. McKiknr. .Mr. Meli. may be found at the
Book Store of Mr. M. G. McKinnk.
The Savannah Ntu» of the ISth inst. says :
" the Citv Council of Americas has passed an
rdinance taxing Bauk Agencies, Venders of Lot
tery Tickets, and Retail Dealers in liquor SIOO
each. Billiard Tables are taxed SSO, and lintels
and Ten Pin Alleys $ .0 each per annum.
The Rome Adartiicr states that the Rome
railroad “pays * larger dividend upon the capital
invested than attv other road whatever in the
Statc
I'he Affray at Sparta. We learn, says the
Savannah X*. that the aftrav between Messrs.
Powell and Gardner, took place in the shop of
Mr Horace Gardner, who was also severely
wounded bv a man named Sawders, a partner
of Powell in the carriage trimming business.
From the facts brought to light, it appears as if
Powell and Saunders went together to Mr.
Gardner shop with the intention if assaulting
bint, or provoking a querrel.
fe*T • Index.” a Wasliingtou correspondent of
the New York Tribute, savs :
Aside t rom the commendable humanity of the act
itself, there is no little policy, just at this juncture,
in the action of the British Government in dis
patching two steamers in seach of the Pacific. It
is an acceptable recognition of the American sym
pathy and effort m behalf of Sir John Franklin' In
whatever light it may be viewed, and bv whatever
motive it may have been prompted—and surelv we
should allow tt the best—it is one of those triumphs
of peace which towers in sublime grandeur above
all ihe bloodstained victories of war.
Neatness may be carried to excess. Mr. Slasher
is devoted to whitewash. On taking a house in
the country he whitewashed the trunks of all the
trees, affirming that it gave them a nicer appear
ance. He was next proceeding to improve the hol
lyhocks in the same style, when Mrs. S. dragged
him away bv the coat tail, declaring that she had
porue a good deal, but she could ut stand that
Thoughts to r Southern Know Nothings
and Whigs.
The late elections in the Northern States, and
the issues involved in them, challenge the serious
consideration of every Southern patriot. The con
test was, in every instance, between the Democratic
party on the one side, and the fusion composed of
black Republicans, Know Nothings and destruc
tives of every shade and imn, on the other. The
former were the avowed advocates of the Nebraska
Kun~as acts, and the enforcement of the fugitive
slave law. The latter were the denouncers of those
acts, the advocates of the restoration of the Mis
souri restriction and the repeal of the fugitive slave
Law. The former were the advocates of the prin
ciples of non-intervention and of self-government
by the people, of the right of the settlers in the ter
ritories to regulate for themselves their own do
mestic institutions, and to enjoy the equal rights
guaranteed to all by the Federal Constitution. The
latter were the advocates of Congressional inter
ference with slavery in the territories, and the in
troduction of unjust discriminations against the
South. The former were the sympathizers with
the law-abiding citizens who moved into Kansas
with the Bible in one hand and the Constitution in
the other, in the peaceble advocacy of the right so
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, under the
flag of their country and the tegis of its laws. The
other were the sympathizers of the spirit of forci
ble propagandism and abolitionism, armed with
Sharpe's rities. It is not surprising, therefore,
that the conservatives of the North, by thousands,
who had but a few months ago been beguiled by
the specious sophistries of Know Nothingism, by
its artful appeals to religious prejudice, and to Na
tive American jealousies of foreign labor and for
eign influence, should have rallied to the Demo
cratic standard, and united their efforts with their
late opponents, to crush the spirit of faction and
rescue the popular mind from its trance of delu
sion :i*nl insane passion. That they did not wholly
succeed m some ol the States is attributable to
the wide-spread and deep-rooted excitement
which had seized and imbued the misguided mas
ses. That they have progressed so far in the
reactionary movement as to have cut down ma
jorities of thousands and tens ol' thousands, to a
few paltry hundreds, in' some of the most
thoroughly infected .States, is an encouraging sign.
It is the cheering manifestation of the operation of
“ the second sober thought of the people.” It in
spires confidence in the innate good sense of the
Anglo-American mind, and of its recuperation from
the temporary debauch of folly and passion. It is
suggestive of renewed hope iu man, and of his ca
pacity to govern himself by sound judgment and
just principles, when time is allowed for reason to
resume its empire. Truth is not always swift in
its march. Its progress is often slow and toilsome,
when it has to fight its way agajnst the passions of
the ignorant and the craft of the wicked. But with
the advantages of a free press and free speech, its
ultimate triumph is sure.
In despite of all appeals to sectional prejudices,
in despite of fusions, embracing every element
which Free Soilism, Black Republicanism and
Know Nothingism could muster in opposition, the
Democratic party has moved onward steadily, and
gains ground with every conflict. Complete or
comparative triumphs have crowned it in all the
recent elections in the following States: New
Hampshire, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Indiana,
Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Missouri.
Though the fusionists carried the elections in some
of them, it was by greatly diminished majorities,
while in others they were ignominiouslv over
thrown.
In the face, then, of the late elections, following
the wild follies of last year, it would be weak —it
would be unpatriotic—it would be almost a crime
against humanity, to despair of the Republic, or to
fear for the triumph of truth. Revolutions never
turn backward in mid career. The revolution has
begun which is destined to overwhelm the late ju
bilant forces of free soil fanaticism. It will go on
with steady march until its triumph is complete in
the election of a President nominated on the prin
ciples of the Xebraska-Kansas acts.
Now, it behooves Southern men to survey the
field, to scrutinize the principles, aims and objects
of the opposing forces, and take sides accordingly.
Can they defeat free soilisnt by the aid of any
itlier party than the Democratic party ? Can thev
aid in this defeat by voting for any other candidate
than the nominee of the Cincinnati Convention V
We ask this question calmly apd seriously of the
admirers of Mr. Fillmore and the advocates of bis
election. Admitting, for argument’s sake, that he
is as sound and trustworthy as the South could de
sire in a President, by whom is he presented to the
ountrv .i a candidate, and by whom supported ?
By the Convention of a party whose last official ac
tion, through their National Grand Council, was to
denounce the repeal of the Missouri restriction.
By a party thoroughly abolitionized in manv States
of the Union, and clamorous for the restoration of
that restriction and the exclusion of Southern in
stitutions from all National Territories, including
Kansas—a party that is fusing with abolitionism,
and with these united forces fighting the Federal
Administration, because of its alleged Southern
proclivities. Would the triumph of such a partv
be a triumph for the South ?
There can be but two contesting parties in the
approaching contest for the Presidency. There are
but two sets of principles contending for the mas
tery : The Constitutional principles of non-inter
vention and equal rights in ihe territories, and the
Constitutional guarantees to slavery on the one
hand; and on the other, restoration of the Missouri
Compromise and the Wilmot Proviso, and the vir
tual abrogation of the fugitive slave law.
If Mr. Fillmore is with the former side, his
proper place is with the National Democracy. If
on the other, i- is with Black Republicanism. In
the collision of these two mighty forces, now strug
gling for ascendency in our country, the creed and
policy and peculiar aims of Know Nothingism
will be crushed out of sight. When vital practical
issues are at stake, fanciful theories and prejudices
of nativity and religion will be lost to view, or be
postponed to a calmer day.
When the Macedonians were marching down
upon (.niece, it was no time for the Athenian Sen
ate to discuss the rivalries of factions, or the dis
putes of the schools^
As a fit conclusion to these reflections, we invite
the Southern people to the calm and sensible re
marks that follow, front a press which puts forth
nothing in a partizau spirit, and which is as inde
pendent of party obligations as it is patriotic in its
aims:

Fate Northern Elections The Piesi
dency.
The elections which have occurred in three of
tlie Northern States within the space of as many
weeks, suggests thoughts well worth the consider
ation of the southern people. The States in which
these elections have occurred are New Hampshire
Uonnecticut and Rhode Island. Each was car
ried last year by the opponents of the Nebraska
bill -carried bv overwhelming majorities. Ths
coalesced forces, composed of Abolitionists, Free
soil Whigs, Freesotl Democrats and Know Noth- j
ings—united by virtue of a common hostility to
slavery -were victorious almost without a strug- ;
gle, over the Democratic party —though the latter j
in each State drew to its support a number of con
servative Whigs. The result of the recent con- -
tests though, not ail the friends of the Union and
of tne South could have wished, is vet highlv en
couraging. It gives assurance that two, if not
three ot the States mentioned, will be found at the
presidential election of next fall on the side of
the Constitution and the Union.
Ifßut, further—We should fail in our duty, as au
independent political journalist, were we not to
direct the attention of our readers to some other
points in connection with the contests to which we
have referred. The battle in behalf of the Kansas- i
Nebraska bill has been fought, gallantly fought
and we may almost add, victoriously fought, in
two at least, of those States. Who fought it ? It
was fought by the Democratic party—everywhere
encouraged and strengthened by a small band of
patriotic Whigs of the school of Henry Clay and
Daniel Webster. Two of the Democratic nomi
nees for the Legislature of Rhode Island,
were formerly Whig United States Senators, who
are doubtless still proud of their connection with
that party,but now see no safety for some of their ;
most cherished principles, but in the successor
me Democracy. Convinced that it was, in the
New England States, the party of the Union, its
instituted no sufficient reason whv they
• h 2,"’ d not rally under its flag. ‘
The bathe was therefore fought under the Demo- *
crjtV Min-, and we hear of no other name among j
the combatants for the Constitution than that of
Democracy. Moreover it was fought on their side
with distinct reference to the Cincinnati nomina
tions and the Presidential election. Mr. Fillmore
seems to be scarcely mentioned in the canvass.
Why not ? Because the gallant conservative Whigs
distrusted his conservatism, or would not rejoice
at his success, were in possible ? The inevitable
inference is that thev see no prospect of his being
successful.
They feel that the issue must be between the
Democratic candidate, pledged to maintain the
Nebraska bill and the Fugitive Slave law, and the
nominee of the Black Republicans, pledged to nul
lify both. They have therefore determined to sup
port the former. «
And should the Cincinnati Convention, as we
can hardly doubt it will, present a name command
ing their 'confidence, is it not reasonable that the
great body of Southern Whigs will judge in the
: same manner? However devoted to Mr. Fillmore,
it is not likely that they will throw awav their
; votes upon him—when the consequence might be
' a Black Republican triumph.
Indeed it would be to us no marvel should Mr.
Fillmore himself be among the supporters of the
Democratic ticket. It has been repeated! v charg-
I ed by the Black Republicans, that his name has
, only been brought forward to create dissensions in
the North, and thus make easy u Democratic tri
umph. And no man will say that, at the present
■ time, Fillmore, Everett, Choate, Evans, and all the
: Northern Conservative Whigs, do not hold a posi
tion much nearer Buchanan and Cass, than to
i Seward and Chase.
We need hardly add that our purpose now is not
to make war upon Mr. Fillmore and his southern
friends. To the latter wo concede quite as much
patriotism as we claim for ourself. And it is be
cause we can do this that we believe—when they
are convinced there is no chance for the election of
their favorite, but that every vote given to him in
the South is a vote taken from the onlv ticket that
j can triumph over Abolition disunionism—they will
! be found casting their suffrages with us for the
! nominee of the Cincinnati Convention.
Betting on Cotton. —The New York Evening
\ Post states that many thousand dollars have been
staked in that city, iu bets on the amount of the
Cotton crop. Most of them are that the crop will
j reach three million live hundred thousand bales.
| It mentions one bet of live hundred dollars between
an operator from Mobile and a broker in Wall
street, aud says that the dealers in that city are
generally disposed to bet on three millions and a
half. There are also numerous bets as to prices—
those yvho risk their money on an amount over
three million live hundred thousand, being also
willing generally to bet on a decline in present
prices. Many parties were buying speculatively
for an advance.
Decline m Flour.
The New York Journal of Commerce, of the 10th
iust., thus discourses under she head of •' prices
falling
“ For the first time in many months, we see that
common to good New York State flour is quoted
bv wholesale at a fraction under sit dollars a bar
rel. When the channels of communication with
the interior are fully open, an avalanche of bread
stuffs and provisions will be down upon us; and
rs the demand from abroad is diminished, except
at reduced prices, there is a fair cbdnce that con
sumers will vet reap some benefit from the im
mense crops of last year. The farmers, millers
aud dealers, have had their chance ; the consutn
, era will now haye theirs. Much, however, will de
l pend upon the prospects of the growing crops,
which thus far, as far so we have learned, are gen
erally favorable.”
; A Very Nice Arrangement.- Bishop Andrew,
of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, .who
recently started on a trip to California,) writes
■ from Panama, to the Southern Christian Advocate,
* as follows, concerning the regulations of the eon
| necting steamers on the Pacific side :
‘ “No permanent arrangements can be made with
the Southern passengers till those from New York
l arrive, yvho are always expected to have preee
: deuce. I ventured to expostulate with one of the
1 officers on the injustice of this distinction. " 1
j pay just as much as these New York passengers.”
I “ 1 know it,” said he, “but yve are obliged to make
i the distinction, as most of our passengers come
from New York.” On this same principle one of
| these Pacific steamers would wait two or three
j days for New York passengers, but would scarcely
yvuit twelve hours for those from Neyy Orleans.”
An exchange says: “God intended all women
j to be beautiful us much as He did the roses and
j the morning glories ; and what lie intended they
should become, they would, if they should obey
J his laws, and cut indolence and corset-strings and
; indulge in freedom and fresh air. For a girl to
| expect to be handsome with the action of her lungs
j dependent on the expansive nature of a cent’s
j worth of tape, is as absurd as to look for tulips in
a snow bank, or a full grown oak in a flower pot.”

’?r Wood’s Hair Restorative. -Prof.
Wood, the renowned discoverer of the invaluable
11 AI li RESTORATIV E, still continues to laboi
in behalf of the afflicted.
His medicines- are universally admitted bv the
American press to be far superior to all others for
causing the hair on the head of the aged, that has
been silvered for many years, to grow forth with
as much vigor and luxuriance ns when blessed with
the advantages of youth.
There can he no doubt that it is one of the great
est discoveries in the medical world. It restores
permanently gray hair to its original color, and
makes it assume a beautiful silky texture, which .
has been very desirable in all ages of the world.

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 prepara
tion injurious to the patient. This article, there
fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers,
Cuts, Flesh Wounds, King and Tetter Worm. Piles

Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat., Scurvv,’ Sore
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 1 Scratches in horses; extract
tar, paint and grease from clothing, and i.- also a
superior dentrifice to the teeth. For) having soap,
it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and
curing such sores as may be ou the face.
In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and
particular oil so/m. this soap has proved a balm
indeed, by its wonderful healing powers.
I can procure certificates innumerable were it
necessary, but believing that a single cake is only
requbiteto prove its etficayv a-above stated, and i
wishing to avoid everything like bumbuggery, I J
leave it to those who will give i( a fair trial, not
doubting they will then declare this to be the ne i

Thf is to certify that 1 have, with my own hands,

i! is combined every thing that 1 could wish in n
; Plow Stock, and it, in my opinion, is the cheapest
cud the best that has ever been offered to the pub
lic. I speak from having used it with my own
hands. 1 was raised to follow the plow, and think
j that 1 know how one ought to run. I would cheer
| fully thank any one, who will thoroughly try it, to
point out to me one single fault in it. ft is’ easier
i upon the horse and the plowman than any that i
have ever used.
j The principle upon which you regulate the dept!;
! ot the Plow is simple, and yet so perfect, as to
| commend itself to any one ; and the Stock is adapt
ed to any kind of Plow Hoe. It is, moreover, just
as light as any could desire it to he. 1 would’ re
