POLITICAL REMINISCENCES -GOVERNOR TROUP
THE TROUP AND CLARK PARTIES. ETC.
An esteemed correspondent and friend (says
the lliehmond Ennui her.) under date of the
lath instant, writes as follows :
“ I am much pleased with your political
reminiscence. Your sketch of the Troupe and
Adam’s controversy brings back to my mind a
matter in which I, like everybody else, took
considerable interest at the time. <Jld Troup,
though the head and front of the ‘Jiery Geor
gians’ of whom Jefferson spoke, was indeed a
'war horse,' as you characterize him; a per
fect Marshal Ney in a charge upon the invad
ers of State sovereignty. The republication of
the controversy at this time is appropriate.” I
But tor the length of the concluding part of
the sketch published in Tuesday's issue, we
should have indulged in some remarks of our
own respecting the impression which the con- '
troversy made on the public mind of the coun
try. Taking it for granted that our readers, or ’
st any rate a considerable number of them, feel
the same interest with ourselves in a retrospect j
of important political events in our history, we ‘
will devote another column of our space to
"Troup and the Treaty,”
The pacific termination of the controversy I
afforded general satisfaction, as a matter of
course. The State right’s inen every where
sympathised with Georgia, believing as they
did that she had experienced neglect and un-I
just treatment at the hands of the general gov
ernment. Borne of them expressed regret at
the "impetuosity” exhibited by Governor
Troup in his correspondence with the authori
tiesof the United States, while at the same time,
they were compelled to admit that there was
inucli to excuse it in the provocation under
which he acted.
By the operation of cmsos, of which it is
useless to attempt an explanation to the Vir
ginia reader, the Creek controversy made a
deep and lasting impression on the politics of
Georgia, It gave rise to the Troup and Clark I
divisions of parties which lor many years
thereafter continued against each other the |
fiercest contest for political ascendency. Af
ter Governor Troup had voluntarily retired
from the arena of politico, and General Clark
had ceased to be an inhabitant of earth, the
"Clark Ticket” and the "Troup Ticket” were
still urged upon the voters at the ballot-box.—
It did not appear, however, to persons residing
out of the State, that the divisions between the
contending parties originated in any important
differences of opihiiln respecting the questions
at issue between Gtbrgia and the general gov
ernment; for upon the question of the validity
of the Mclntosh Treaty, and the right of Geor
gia to make the survey in anticipation of the
departure of the Indians from the ceded terri
tory there appears to have been a near ap
proach to unanimity in the legislature and
among the people of the State. The Troup and
Clark parties, it always seemed to Us, were
founded more on differences of opinion as to
the merits of individuals, than u[a>n any well
defined, legible principles of government. In
the Presidential election of 1824,thevote of Geor
gia was cast for her distinguished citizen, Wil
liam 11. Crawford. But at that time, as at all
othersduringbis politcal life, there was a strong
party in the State in opposition to Mr. Craw
ford. GoV. Clark, the leader of the opposition
to him, was a man of extensive popularity, and
ereat energy ami force of character. The leg
islature had twice elected him Governor for a
term of two years each, and, on his retirement,
his friend Mr. Talbot was Ireaten but four Votes
by Troup, the leader of the Crawford party.—
The hostility between Mr. Crawford and Gov.
Clark was of the mo«t uncompromising charac
ter, originating In events that transpired many
years before. At an early pcri'M of tbeir diffi
culty there were hostile meetings between thefn,
which resulted in the wounding of Ms. Craw
ford. The difficulty was not adjusted, and
each of them imparted to hie adherents some of
his own personal feelings, and lienee the acrim
onious spirit in which every canvass was con
ducted between tbeir respective friends. Af
ter the withdrawal of Mr. Crawford from ac
tive political life. Governor Troup was regard-
ed as the leader of his party in the .State. In
1824, the election ot Governor was taken from
the Legislature and given to the people. Gov.
Troun was a candidate for re-elevthm. and Gov.
Clark his competitor. As already stated, the
difference between the rival parties, in re
lation to the treaty and the surveys, must have
l<een immaterial; but the opponents of Gov.
Troupelectioneeredagainsthim on the allegation
that be had well nigh brought on a civil war
l and a dissolution of the Union by his itnpuMre
( n«w. All matters in dispute, they insisted,
would have been adjusted withootany disturb
i anee of the peace of the country and without
1 any excitement of aay kind bed the Governor
I of Georgia exhibited a Incoming Imper in
' his intercourse with the federal officials.
The reader can form some idea of the bitter
ness and exasperation between the parties by
the following given at a dinner in Geor
gia on the 4th of July, 18+6:
By a leading Clack man—George M. Troup :
May he receive wliat he deserves, the infamy
i dire every iron who attempts to excite civil war
■ and destroy the Union.
By a Troup man—-George M. Troup: May j
I every hair in bis head be a standing army, and
every word he utters a thundering cannon, to
' drive bis enemies to hell.
The dinner party ended in a general fight!
The sympathies of the friends of the Nation- ■
j al Administration were warmly enlisted in be- |
| half of Governor Clark ; and Governor Troup i
accused the Federal officers in his State, civil !
and Military, of participating actively in the i
canvass as the partizans of the candidate pre- ’
sered by the general government. After a j
tremendous struggle, Troup was elected by a '
little upwards of six hundred votes out of more
than forty thousand polled. The Clark party
succeeded, however, in securing the Slate Leg
i islature; so that neither side could claim a
i decisive victory. The Clark majority in the
legislature Med their power to its full extent
in rejecting their opponents from the offices .
they held under the State government. But
at the next election the friends of Troup car
ried the Legislature, and retaliated on the
Clark [»arty by taking from them every office
lat the disposal of that body. Thenceforth the
Troup party maintained its ascendency through
' the entire perils! of its organization. Both
(.parties xup|a>rted the election of Jackson in
1828, and his re-election in ’32 ; but they could I
1 not unite on the same ticket of electors. The
Troup Ticket and the Clark Ticket were the |
i only ones heard of at the jxills in Georgia from I
I 1825 to 183".
After his retirement from the Executive
1 Chair of Georgia. Governor Troup was elected I
Senator in Congress by a vote very nearly
unanimous. He remained in that position till
a tew months previous to the expiration of his
[ term, when he resigned and retired to private
life. No man of his day impressed himself so
I strongly on the public mind of his section.— '
i The ardent State rights men of the South—
' those who a quarter of a century ago talked I
! about “ calculating the value of the Union”— I
i recognised in him a leader worthy of their I
I cause; one who would not stop to count the !
I cost to his State of w hat he deemed iudispuu- .
sable to iu honor and indefienduuce. "Troup
and the Treaty” and “Stand to your Arms,
were used as party watch-words long after they i
had lost their original signification.
In 1852, the Southern Hights party—tiy ’
which was then understood the Democrats of'
the slaveholditig States who refused to concur
in the nomination of a “ national candidate" I
for the Presidency—brought out Governor
Troup for that office. Gov. Troup said he j
would allow them the use of his name, but on- j
ly with a view to the organization of their |
party; and advised them to support Tierce, as ■
lie liiinself intended to do, with cordiality.—
The Troup and Quitman Ticket received sever
al thousand votes in Alabama, and a somewhat
smaller support in Mississippi. Governor
Troup never regretted his support ot Mr.
Pierce as President. In the Summer of 1855,
! only a few months previous to his death, he
wrote a letter in reply to one addressed hint by
i some triends in Montgomery Alabama, in
' which be paid a glowing compliment to the
j patriotism ami fidelity of that functionary, and
l signified, in no equivocal terms, his desire to
make the federal Union perpetual if its.gov
i erument could be continued in the hands of
I such men as those that held the reins. Gov.
i Troup was denominated n Nnllifier, but he
j was not one of the South Carolina school. He
I never ranked among the friends of Mr. Cal
i boun. On the contrary, the Presidential elec
tors on the Jackson Troup ticket 1828, refused
j to support Calhoun for Vice President when
| every Jarkson elector in the United States
j supported Jtim. Gov. Troup was a Secession
ist, but was opposed to separate State action in
the way of resistance to Federal aggression, so
long as there was uny hope of concert and co
operation on the part of the State aggrieved.

MACON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, MAY 13. 1858.
THE TIN PEDDLER AND SLEEPY DAVID.
The following story extracted from the work,
“ A Yankee among the Nullifiers,” purports to
be told to another by a South Carolinian :
The Yankees, as 1 said before, are apt to be
too cute for us in everything but horse flesh,
and even sometimes in that. It was this day
three years ago, and on this very spot that I
entered my horse Southern for a purse of two
thousand dollars. He had won a like sum (the
. year before with all ease. In short, he was
the best horse at that time in South Carolina.
There were to be sure, two other horses, and
i very fine ones, entered against him, but they
were no touch to Southern, and 1 was as sure
of winning as I am sitting here this moment—
when who should come along but a Yankee,
’ with a tin cart? He hail the shabbiest, worst
looking horse I ever put my eyes on. He was
a lean, slab-sided, crooked-legged, rough-hair
ed “critter” as ever went on four legs. He
stood all the time as if he was asleep—in fact
his owner called him sleepy David, In short.
; sir, he was such a horse as would not have
brought twenty dollars.
It was near the hour of starting, when, the
peddlar, whose exterior correspondended mar
velousy w ith that of his horse, and who said
bis name was Zadock Barber, to the astonish
• meat of all, intimated a w ish to enter his horse
j with the rest.
“ Your horse! exclaimed I—“ what, that
i sleepy looking devil there? You’d better en
ter him for the turkey-buzzards.”
“ Not as you knows on. Mister," resumed
j the Y'ankee, with some show of spirit. “To
lie sure the critter looks rather sleepy as he
stands, and on that account I call him’ Sleepy
David; but lie’s a jolfi’d smart horse tor all
that. He's like a singed cat, a darned sight
better nor he looks. 1 should like tarnation
well to try him against some of your South
Carolina horses. To be sure I don't come all
the way from home on that purpose, but as I
I was coming out this way on a load of tin and
i other notions, I thought I might time it so as
to kill two birds with one stone, for thinks I j
to rnyseif if I can w in the purse and peddle off’
my notions at the same time, I shall make a
plaguy good speck. But I had to hurry on
like the nation to get here in time, and that’s
I one reason why my boss looks so shabby and
out of fix this morning. But for all that he'll
I perform a day’s work, I tell you.”
Supposing that he had no idea of running his
j horse and that all he said was merely to grati
| fy his pro|>ensity for talking, 1 bade him l>e
i gone, and not trouble me with his Yankee pa
laver.
“ Why. mister,” said he, “ this is a free coun
try, ami a man has aright to talk orletitalone,
just as he can afford. Now I’ve taken a great 1
deal of pains to get here this morning, in order j
to run Sleepy David agin some of your South- i
ern hosses. I aint joking sir, I’m in airnest.— |
' I understand there is a purse of two thousand
dollars, and I should like amazing to pick it
Ul> '” .
“Y on talk of picking up two thousand dol
i lars with that bit of earrton of yours!
I Away with you. and don't trouble us any tur
. ther."
•' Well, if 1 can't run. I suppose I can't ;
i but it's darned hard anyhow tor a man to take
i so much pains as I have to come up to the races.
I and then can't run after all.
■ “It's too late now: by the rules of the
course the horse should have been entered
I yesterday; however if you’ll plank the en
trance money, perhaps you may get in yet.”
I said this byway of getting rid of the fellow. !
having no idea that he could command a fourth
part of the sum required.
" How much might the entrance.moiiey Ire?” i
: drawing out a purse containing a tew shillings
in silver and a few pence iu copper. "If taint
more nor a quarter of a dollar or so, I'll plank
it on the nail.”
“ It is two hundred dollars.”
“ Two hundred !” exclaimed the Y'ankee.—
“By gauley what a price! Mby they axed
me only twenty-firt: cents to see the elephent
and the hull caravan in New Y’ork. Two bun
dred dollars! Why you must be joking now
—bless me! my hull load tin wares, hoss. wag
on and all wouldn’t fetch that. But mister,
don't vou think I could get in for ten dol
lars?”
“ Nothing short of two hundred, and that
must be paid in five minutes.”
We now thought we had fairly got rid of
the fellow, but b« returned to the charge and
asked if fifty dollars wouldn't do, then seventy,
then a hundred, and finding he could not make
a bargain for less than the regular stun, he en
gaged to give it, provided be could find any
one to loan him the money for which he could
pawn his wagon load of notions and Sleepy
David to boot. He asked one and then anoth
er to accommodate him with the loan—declar
ing that as soon as ever he took the purse the
money should be returned, and he would give
a dozen tin whistles in the bargain. He how
ever got more curses than coppers, until some
wag who had plenty of cash and liked to see
the s|M>rtgoon, lent him the two hundred dollars '
out of sheer malice. Though it afterwards
turned out, the Y'ankee had plenty of money
about him, and was merely playing possom
all the while.
His next object was to borrow a saddle. In
this he wa« also accommodated, and taking
Sleepy David from the tin cart, he scrambled
upon his back and took his station on the
course. Y’ou never saw a fellow sit on a horse
jso awkward in your life. Every one said he
i would fall before he went a hundred yards—
! end some out of compassion urged him to with
! draw.
“ Not by a darned sight," exclaimed he.—
“Do you think I’m such a darned fool as to
i pay two hundred dollars and then withdraw
and not run ar ter all ?
Others who wanted to see the sport thought
| it would cost some broken bones, encouraged
him to proceed, saying as they laughed aloud,
they had no doubt but what he would carry off
| the purse.
“ That’s what I mean to do,” said he, “ain't
: come here for nothing I can tell you. Wake
up Sleepy David and look about you ; you must
i have your eyes open to-day, it’s no time to be
j snoozin’ when there is money at stake.”
The horse, as if he understood what hie mas
, ter was saying, pricked up bis ears, and actu
i ally began to show’ signs of life.
I The signal was given to start. Away sprang
Southern, with the speed of lightning, and leav
i ing Sleepy David farinthe rear and the peddlar
■ verging from one side to the other, as if he was
just ready to fall off. t ,
But they improved as they proceed; the
peddlar sat more jockey like, and the horse ev
idently gained upon the others.
It was now thonght the Yankee had enough
j bf the race, and .would withdraw before the
heat. Contrary so all expectations, however,
I he persevereil, and offered to bet a thousand
I dollars on the issue of the race.
“ The fellow’s a fonl," said one.
“He don’t know which sidA of his bread is
buttered, or else he wouldn't bet any money on
sb desperate a stake.',’
, He i« safe enough there,” said A third, “for
j he has no money to risk.’’
Here, however, all were mistaken again for
the pedlar hauled out a greasy old pocket book,
I and planked the thousand dollars. It was cov
ered of course. But I confess I now began to
be staggered, and to suspect the Y'ankee »»«
after all more rogue than fool. I had no fears,
however, for the purse. Southern was not a
horse to be distanced by such a miserable dev
il as Sleepy David.
The second heat was now commenced, and if
I had before felt confident in the entire superi
ority of my noble Southern, that confidence
was strengthened as I again saw him coming
in ahead of the rest I considered the purse
as now my own property. In imagination I
had grasped it and wns about putting it safely
in my pocket when to! and behold the ped
lar’s horse shot forward as if the devil had
kicked him, and strei —ag Lis nwk like a crane,
won the heat by a head.
Everybody was astonished. “That horse
must be the devil himself,” said one.
“ At least he has the devil to back him," said
another.
“I was sure he would play some Y'ankee
trick before he got through,” said a third.
Such were the observations that passed from
mouth to mouth.
The Y'ankee in the mean time, offered to
take another thousand dollar bet. but nobody
felt disposed to bet with him. and it was well
that.they didn’t for at the third heat Sleepy Da
vid not only distanced every horse, but even
came in a full quarter of a mile ahead of South
ern himself.
“ There, by gauley,” said the Y’ankee, as he i
dismounted, “ I’ll take that ere little pnrse if
you please, and the other cool thousand, tew!
I knowed well enough that your Southern hos
ses couldn't hold a candle tew Sleepy David."
Peach W'op.m. —lt is said that a ot
one ounce of saltpetre and seven ounces of |
salt, applied on tjie surface of the ground, in
contact and around the trunk of a peach tree
seven years old and upwards, will destroy the
worm, prevent the yellow*, and add much to
the product and quality of the fruit. Also,
sow the orchard with the same mixture, at the
rate of two bushels to the acre.

As I have a great many calls for Chandeliers for
Churches, it is probably best to let the world know
that I have never made any profit out of anything for
a Church, hence all orders for Lamps for Churches
should be sent at least sor weeks before tbev need
them, so as to enable me to get them from the facto
ry. Ide not intend keeping stock on hand for that
trade, but will as heretofore get them out at Factory
prices fur Churches. R. P. MeE.

I HAVE just received a lot of the above Lamps con

for me t4* say anything about this Lamp, as the Press
