From the If iron Telegraph, June 17. Bibb County Ratification Meeting. t large and respectable meeting of the Deran ; • party of Bibb county, assembled at the i flirt House on Saturday, June 14, 1856. Tie meeting was called to order bv A. R. Mc- Uegblio, Eaq., on whose motion Col. Ilenrv G. Lamar, was called to the Chair, and B. M. Po'lhlll i quested to act as secretary. After an address ir-.m the chairman, reviewing the character anil "u!i ■■ services of the Hon. James Buchanan, and mating the meeting upon the happy result of li • deliberations at Cincinnati, and the spirit in a Inch they were conducted— 'ii. Tracy, from the committee, reported the following resolutions: Tlu-Democratic party of Bibb county, in pri mary meeting assembled, hailing with profound satisfaction the recent nominations by the Cincin- j ati Convention, and believing that the men and I the plalform, then and there presented, tire emi nently worthy of the support of the whole South- ; ru people, avail themselves of this opportunity to \ nvite the co-operation of each and all of their fcl- i ur-citizens who are willing to unite with them in • •• great battle now about to be fought in behalf 1 ■.f the Constitution and the reserved l ights of the j -,-veral States. Believing, as they solemnly do believe, that the ii-arest rights of the South are dependent on the issue of the contest, and solemnly convinced that •iie thorough union of the southern people should \ it be imperilled by the recollection of former dissensions or the perpetuation of minor difl'er inces. the Democratic party of Bibb will cordially i their rauks and receive under their flag all of icir fellow-citizens who stand ready to ratify the Cincinnati Platform and support the candidates ; who stand upon it. They, therefore, purposely ■ unit the expression of anv sentiment which might wound the pride or offend the honest convictions anv portion of the people of the South, and mrnrstlv invoking the spirit of patriotic harmony „ud conciliation, they now throw thuir banner to :.ie breeze, inscribed with one word only, and that word, the Constitution. Be it therefore /.Vv i/, That in the nomination of the Hon. James Buchanan for the Presidency, a statesman j of acknowledged wisdom, a diplomatist of ripe ••sperieuee, and a patriot of unimpeached and un- j npeachabie integrity, we lecognize the assurance : :mt our Democratic brethren of the North have j ■fused to tamper with the baneful heresies of : reesoil and Abolition, but stand ready to unite with us in guarding the national flag against the ”vi, h rous fanatics who would fain make it the black banner of oppression or the bloody emblem j if civil war. /.-'■.’■of. That, in the opinion of this meeting, the . nomination of Mr, Buchanan is no more than the ’ is! reward of a long life passed in the public ser vice, without one stain upon his character or one j Hint upon his honor, ana that his election to the . Presidency will not only confer a new distinction ip'n him, hut also reflect a new lustre upon the ■dice. It ■ That we most cordially ratify andcon • rrntii ■ nomination of the Hon. John 0. Breeken- j ige, ot Kentucky, for the Vice Presidency. A _allmit soldier, an accomplished orator, and a true - uithern gentleman, he is well worthy to stand -de by side with the distinguished statesman with "bam he has been associated, and wo hereby j i.ledge both to th e one and the other, our united, •alous and enthusiastic support. it j ■'• 7, That in our opinion, the administra ui nt Franklin Pierce lias been distinguished for in unfaltcri ng|de votion to the Constitution of the mntrv, and a jealous regard for the national hon : -that amid the waves of faction and the tierce ■itms of fanaticism to which the ship of State baa been subjected, the President has stood to the dm, firm as the granite of Ins own New Hamp shire hills ilia! the people of the South especially ■ uve tu him a deep debt of gratitude which can never he ton warmly or ton frequently manifested— ! mid that though our eves are now saluted bv the rays of the rising sun. we pause m the midst of "itr admiration, to gaze respectfully upon the .-sink ing luminary who shines with increasing lustre l ien as he declines. A’-Wr.d, That ire reiterate the belief that the peo ple of the Union have now to choose between De ni ieiaev on the one side and Black Republicanism a the other, and indignantly repelling the suspi- j •ii that anv southern man can hesitate between ■: Ibe two, we formally invite the co-operation of all who are willing to accept as their motto, the Union ■ the ,<■ nth for the Atte of the Un,Motion. Hon. A. If. Chappell moved their adoption, and ipported his motion in a powerful speech, in which he drew the brighest auguries for the har mony and peace of the country from the noble i timi of the Cincinnati Convention and the char tor of its nominees. Although willing, so far us the tale of the licket was concerned, to leave it with die people of Georgia without effort, it was im- I'ortant for moral effect upon the North and the HmtiT -it was due to the nominees and their no li- supporters in the northern States, that Geor ;li should endorse them with a signal and unpre cedented majority. The report was iinaiiitnou.-.lv confirmed. I poll a call of the meeting, J. J. Gresham, 1< I , addressed it in a very able and satisfactory manner, showing that the issue was now between the Constitution and Sectionalism, and no altern ative remained for the patriotic men of the South otto unite upon the Democratic nominees and platform. On call, Col. Nathan Bass then addressed the meeting strongly urging the propriety of a union t all patriotic citizens of the South in behalf of ihe tii ket and platfoi in . Additional Foreign Nows. 11-.ei.v OF l.oltll 11.1 11 1: VHOV TO THK MOTION OF THK KVRI. OK UI.IIIN, ON’AMUItICAN AFFAIRS. Ihe Karl ot ( laveudun —My lords, lam anxious • to make some observations on the early part of the speech of the noble Karl, but thee' shall be very lew, because I am deeply convinced of the iiiconvenince—and possibly the danger—of such a discussion at the present moment. .Hear, hears Indeed, so deeply convinced am I of tins’, that I shall refrain from making even a single observa tion on several remarks which fell from the noble Karl, and which 1 heard with regret; hut, still, 1 am so anxious that there should be no mistake as tn the feelings of Her Majesty’s government w ith respect to the United Slates, or as to the policy which tliev have pursued, and which they will continue to pursue, that I must address a few words to vour lordships. And, my lords, I will, in the first place, say that, as far as myself am con e rned—and I speak also in the name of all the members of Her Majesty's government—l do not believe there can he the slightest doubt on mv or their desire to maintain unimpaired the closest, the most cordial, and the most sincere relations with the United States. Cheers]. I believe no man can he more convinced than we are, both of our interest and our duty to main tain those friendly relations with the American government and people, and as far as I am con cerned, having tilled the office of foreign secretary for some years, I can conscientiously affirm that neither bv word nor by deed has anv thing been done which would create a just cause of irritation between the two countries, i Cheers'. The noble Lord has alluded to two points of dif :■-rence between the United .States and Great Bri tain. viz : the question of recruitment, and the yiestion of Central America. With regard to the recruitment, that question entirely arose from pro posals made to us with respect to persons desir ous f entering into the Queen’s service. We did not even contemplate accepting auy of those of fers without due reference to the neutrality laws f the United States, which, I entirely agree with the noble Lord, it is as much onr interest and duty II uphold as it can be those of the United States themselves. (Hear, hear.) It is not our duty, indued, to encroach upon the laws of any other country ; but we have an inter est—a British interest—in the neutrality laws of the United Stales being maintained. 'The main tenance. therefore, of those laws was our first thought, as they constituted the principal part i f ■ur instructions; and the moment we ascertained that the recruitment could not be carried on with in danger—not on the parr of our own agents, nut of persons who a-—tuned to be our agents—of v. dating the neutrality laws of the United States, we igreed to relinquish the whole scheme. BY our lordships have seen from the papers, which have been laid on the table, that there is nothing which could be expected from one nation towards another, from one government towards a:i uher, from one gent en an towards another, that we have not done, or ottered to do, in order to afford reparation to the United States for any offence-however unintentional on our part— whie.i they can conceive has been committed. Hear.) My lords, the iast despatch that was written on this subject, which was a resume of the whole mat ter, in answer to the long dispatch of Mr. Marcv, can hardly vet have reached the United States; and therefore upon the question of the recruitment, I am exceedingly anxious not to sav anv more at present. But, as far as I have been abie to ascer tain what are the impressions which this despatch has produced in this country, I think the general opinion is that we have offered a complete satis faction to the government of the United States, and that the only thing which we certainly have not done has been to recall Mr. Crampton and the Consuls, because we do not think they have merit ed that censure and that punishment. (Cheers i. There would have been no shortcoming on the part of Her Majesty’s government if we had seen reason to adopt a contrary course, or no hesitation to deal severely with any agent who should so fat have forgotten his duty and been unmindful of Ins instructions as to violate the laws of the Uni ted States; hut being convinced that that had not been done, and having in our possession the means of proving to the United States that it was not ! done, 1 think nobody will require of us to sacrifice l our agents and to purchase a conciliation with the , l nited States bv doing that which would be both shabby and dishonorable. Cheers). With regard to the Central American question, ; your lordships know what were the terms of the J Clayton-Bulwer treaty. I think it impossible that ■ language could he more clear or more precise- in its meaning than the language employed in that 1 instrument. ( Hear, hear).. The treaty sets forth ! that there should not he in future any colonizaiion, ! any occupation, any fortifying or strengthening of j places not already in the possession of either ! country. Jdo not see how there can he two inter pretations of its terms. It was intended for a specific object—first, the ; construction of a canal, and then its maintenance free for the use of the world, prohibiting anv en croachment on the part of the United States or Great Britain, which were the contracting and guaranteeing parties; hut all its provisions were prospective, and there is certainly nothing in it which implies that we were to give up Honduras and Ruatau, to evacuate or alter our position in any respect from what it was before the conclu i sion of the treaty. It is impossible that the very able man—Sir Henry Bulwer —who negotiated the treaty on the j part of Great Britain, could have taken upon him j self, without instructions—even without the knowl edge of his Government —to abandon anv portion of British territory or British interests; and so far from having done anything of that sort, he made a' stringent proviso, which was acknowledg ed by Mr. Clayton, that the treaty should not touch Honduras, or afl'ect any of its dependencies. [Hear.] When Mr. Buchanan came over to this country we heard for the first time that there was an en tirely new interpretation to be put upon the treaty. It was no longer to he looked upon as a prospec tive argument, hut one for the evacuation of Brit ish territory, and we were told that we were to blame, and were the cause—l will not sav of a quarrel between the two countries, but—of irrita tion and complaint on the part of the United States, because we had not fulfilled the engage ments of the treaty by evacuating all the territory we possessed in Central America. I told Mr. Buchanan—what was the perfect truth—that that was the tirst time I had heard such au interpretation put upon that treaty. lie replied that in his country there was no doubt up on the subject. I then said that—however clear the terms of the treaty might appear to me—to call in a third party, an impartial judge, to deter mine what should he the fairest course to pursue, between governments as between individuals. I also added that we certainly did not wish to possess territory in Central America; that we did not desire to extend our influence in that part of the world; that we were perfectly ready to enter into such engagements as would satisfy the United Slates, and even our own people at home ( hear) upon that score; that it was therefore indifferent to us who was called in to arbitrate ; that we should he prepared to abide by the decision, what- j ever it was ; hut to do what was not contemplated j by the treaty, because we were told that a certain ! interpretation was put upon it which we could not j admit, was not a course which one government should propose to another, and to which certain ly no independent government would submit.— i Cheers. I therefore proposed—what is by no means un- j common in such cases—that the matter should be j referred to arbitration. To that proposal, although it has been so long before the government of the United States, we have as yet received no answer; and therefore upon this question also, 1 do not wish to enter further, because 1 am convinced that, when the subject really comes to be considered in the United States—when the public opinion of that country is brought to bear upon it as upon all j other political questions—when the American peo ple are made acquainted with our assurances as to having no desire to extend our territory or our in- i fluency in Central America, and as to our sincere | w ish toenter into engagements sufficient tn satisfy every reasonable man, our otter of accommodation i will not be refused. I have only to sav, in conclusion, that 1 have i heard with the greatest satisfaction from the noble i Lord, who is a far better judge of these matters than I can he, that among all classes in the United ! States there exist the most friendly feelings to wards this country. 1 say I heard that statement 1 with the greatest satisfaction, because by certain public men in the Senate and in Congress—by cer- ! tain oflicial men—there have been language held and acts performed which, if held and done by any member of this House -not to say any mem ber of Her Majesty's government would he justly . denounced both by your lordships and the people out of doors ns the language and acts of a man ] w ho desired to embroil the two countries in hostil- : ities. Cheers. Therefore it is that I heard, with peculiar satis- ‘ faction, from the noble Lord of the friendly feelings entertained by the great mass of American citi zens towards this country. 1 think the people of the United States can have no doubt of' the exis tence (if similar feelings here. iHenr.l 1 believe there never has been in England any hostile feel- i mg towards the United States; and, notwithstand ing the clouds that have appeared on the horizon, ] the manner in which the recruitment and Central American questions have been treated by the press of that countiy has produced no real —certainly no j lasting feeling of irritation here. Hear, hear.] j 1 believe that the people of England are as anx ious as the noble Lord can be that all these disputes should he brought to an end. 1 can assure the no ble Lord that, as far as it depends upon me, they ! shall he brought to an end. [Cheers ’; Nothing shall he wanting on the part of Her Majesty's gov i eminent to bring them to a close : and, if the in formation be correct, which the noble Lord re- i ceived the other day, that Mr. Marcv and 1 might settle our differences in half an hour, F can only sav that 1 am ready to meet him for that purpose on some island half way between the two countries. A laugh and cheers.] Railroid Mrrting in Early Coi ntv. — The citi- ; zens us Karlv county met in Convention on the :ul ■ i ins!., to consider the policy of aiding in the con- s structton of a railroad troni the Atlantic to the l Chattahoochee. Ma j..Toel|Cra\vford, one of the Com- t missioners of the Main Trunk railroad, called the c attention if the meeting to the fact that the Bin ns- i wick and Florida Company had refused to surren- < der its chartered rights; expressed the belief that the Legislature would not allow a petty corporation n thwart the will of the people, and urged the | 1 people to take immediate and decisive action. Resolutions were adopted by the meeting, pledg- t ing the counties of Karlv and Calhoun to a sub- f senption of three hundred thousand dollars to any . i company that will extend a road through Albany, 1 Morgan and Hlakelv, to the Chattahoochee river.

We allude to Mr. Thomas Joseph Roger. Mr. Roger was born in Bouen, (France) on" the Bth June, 1799, and had, consequently, entered on his 1 tiftv-eighth year. He came to Charleston in 1817, j ami immediately began business us a merchant, and continued mostly under the style of T.

From the Lon Jon Times, J lay SffL United States ami Great Britain. 1 The American question assumes, month by month, with each interchange of communications between the two Governments, a more serious, a more anx j ious, a more threatening aspect. The apprehen sions of to-day become the certainties ot to-mor row; and claims, the existence of which could never have been anticipated, are one by one urged upon us. It really seems as if demands on one side and concessions on the other had reached their utmost limit; as if so much had been conceded in peace, that nothing was left to he grasped by war; as if America had obtained and England had \ ielded all that the most powerful country could ask—all that the feeblest nation which retained anv sense of dig nity and self-respect could possibly give up. We have wounded most unintentionally the suscepti bilities of America by doing not only what we had a right to do—that is, by establishing a recruiting station in our own colony, on the frontier of the ! United States. The United Stales remonstrate i against the proceeding, we desist from it, and we i apologise. The ground is shifted. We are told j that we have offended against the sovereign rights of the Republic. We disclaim the intention. Then the recall of our Minister and Consuls is demand ed, on the ground that they have directly infringed American law. We reply that the accusation rests on evidence utterly unworthy of credit; but that, if ii can he substantiated hr credible witnesses, we will not fail to punish the delinquent officers. Here the matter remains for the present; and, as far as we are concerned, we fear here it must remain, for we can imagine no further concession which can be made without actual disgrace. We I cannot, for the sake of any object, however impor j lant, tarnish the national character by committing I ourselves to a gross and deliberate injustice—an ' injustice not palliated by the vehemence of popu- J lar feeling or the strength of honest, though mis i taken convictions, hut dictated solely by fear the j meanest of passions, though the most powerful of motives. If the Minister of Foreign Affairs is persuaded that Mr. Crampton has so far disobeyed the orders of his government, and disregarded the duties of his station as to violate the laws of a friendly country, we ought to need no menaces, no expostulations from the government of the coun try so aggrieved, in order to induce us to inflict the proper punishment on him, and give just and reasonable satisfaction to them, by withdrawing him immediately from the situation he has abused, and a country which he has insulted; but if, on the other hand, we are satisfied that no such accu sation can be proved, that the evidence on which it rests is utterly worthless, and that the words of I men of honor and gentlemen emphatically deny ing the charge, infinitely outweigh the evidence of thousands of such witnesses as Hertz and Btrobell, it would he unpardonable meanness and miserable truckling, utterly unworthy of a country which professes to prize justice and honor above all things, and to submit to any sacrifice rather than betray her servants or belie her convictions, to re call her Minister or her Consuls at the dictation of a foreign power. We have apologised for the faults we have committed. We have temperately and fairly pointed out the worthlessness of the proof of other faults, the commission of which we deny, and for which we can consequently offer no reparation. This we have done, but we can do no more. The Queen of England has offered to the United States such reparation as one great power may fairly and [candidly make to another; but this nation will never allow the posture of its sovereign to be changed from one of cordial and candid friendship into an attitude of enforced hu mility and unworthy deprecation. This nation would exact a heavy account from any govern ment which ii should think has, by rashness or want of consideration for the feeling of its neigh hots, compromised the peace of the world ; hut it will he equally resolute to maintain, if driven to extremity, its honor and independence. Observations precisely similar apply to onr dif ference with the United States respecting Central America. In order to disarm their jealousy we have voluntarily assured them that we have no intention whatever of seeking for aggrandizement or extension of territory in that quarter. We dif fer in the interpretation of a treaty, ami have re peatedly offered to submit that treaty to the arbi tration of any friendly power. More than this we cannot do, unless, in order to avoid collision, we surrender our own]interpretution of the treaty, and and submit to one we know never to have been contemplated by our Plenipotentiary. This we cannot do, and it will therefore be for the United States to consider what| purpose it will serve to push ns any further on this subject. We will not suffer ourselves to suppose that there is any truth in repor.s Which have reached us that the internal att'ait - f die Union have ar rived at a point which i .-ii. . . -i; necessary to seek in foreign war a diversion In-i.i domestic discord. Such wild and dangerous counsels are unworthy the position and alien from tin- spirit of the great trans-Atlantic community, whose wisdom and for tune it has been to wring from peace conquests more successful and more durable than have ever been attained by the most successful war. Histo ry affords abundant instances where the unprinci pled ambition of powerful States have urged them on to provoke an unequal conflict with smaller and weaker communities ; but that a State should rush into war with another at least its equal in all those resources which are necessary for military success, while that country, so far from offering any provocation, is exhausting every expedient to avert the threatened collision, is indeedan instance of conduct which we do not care to characterize further than bv the observation that it is totally un paralleled iu history. Let ns for once, we trust without arrogance,ven ture to propose our own example to tile United States as one not wholly unworthy of imitation. When the dispute with regard to the Oregon ter ritory began to assume really formidable preten sions, and seriously to compromise the relations of the two countries, Great Britain, actuated by her sincere desire to put an end to so threatening a state of affairs, waived all ceremony, put aside all etiquette, selecting that person whom she be lieved most likely to be* acceptable to the govern ment and people of the United States, and sent him out with full powers to arrange the dispute on terms acceptable to both parties. The measure completely succeeded, and the danger of war was, at least for the time, averted. Win should not the United States adopt a similar expedient now, and either send to London a special Plenipotentiary,or invest their Minister here with full powers amica bly to terminate the dispute? Lord Elgin says that Mr. Marry and Lord Clarendon could settle the matter in half an hour, and Mr. Macauley lias just told us hotv the negotiations which made so little progress at the Conference of Ryswi“k were despatched without difficulty by Bentinck and Bonders under an apple tree. We have tried di ploniuiie correspondence with indifferent success ; why should we not try if personal intercourse will not succeed better ? A rumor is current that Lord Elgin is to be sent as plenipotentiary to Washington to endeavor to arrange matters. Another tumor says that Sir 11. L. Bulwer will be the envoy. A Short Sermon.—A farmer going to a parish meeting, met his minister and told him that his society had resolved to increase his salary. “ 1 beg of von not to think of any snob thing," said the minister ; “for it is about as much business to collect my present salary as 1 wish to attend to— if it should be increased, 1 should he obliged to devote my whole time to collecting it. We happen to know that Dr. Ayer’s Cherry Pec toral and Cathartic Pills arc good medicines, and shall procluiin it because we uo know it. We con fidently believe there is a vast amount of relief from suffering for our afflicted fellow men wrapped up in these skilful preparations, and we shall free lv use our little influence to make them known to those who need them. -Philadelphia Sunilai/ Times.

THIS article wiM compare favora- bly with any of like character in the known world. I find that by putting it in the form jWfHB of a Soap it gives it a decided advan 'gSpai 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 prepara tion injurious to the patient. This article, there fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles, Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore Eves, 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 indeed, by its wonderful healing powers. I can procure certificates innumerable were it necessary, but believing that a single cake is only requisite to prove its efficacy as above states!, and wishing to avoid everything like hunibuggerv, 1 leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, no doubting they will then declare this to be the n> plus ultra, of the age in the healing art.
