The history of our Ciovcrument nllords a melon-

u,! nsrlicular bus this truth kenu more fully aud
alarmingly illustrated, tlniu in ibo recent course«f
tbs North towards the South, upon the great ques.
il.ui of Slavery. The Southern Suites having
,'iikis into the coufederary with a aolemu and cou-
.lilutiouai recognition (ucquiesced in by all sec-
li»na} of their peculiar right*, and institutions;
f.udly sad confidently, hoped that they would

lie wholly unmolested aud undisturbed. But iu
this they have becu most billcrlv deceived. The

Tho New Cabinet,
h depends upon the character of the Amcr-
1 icon Cabinet. It given character and tono to tbe
Admmi.'.ration. No one can doubt but the great
ability, sound wisdom, aud enlarged statesman
ship found in tho Cabinet of Mr. Polk, tended
largely to the powor, influence, t-lflaioucy and un
paralleled success of bis brilliant Administration.
On tbe subject of tbo torilt currency, Mexican
war, extension of territory, a ad the siarcry ques
tion, his Cabinet was a unit Every one was in fa
vor of tho constitutional righta of tbo South. Eve-
ty one opposcj logislati on by Cungrcsa, restricting
slavery. Xudeod, M r. Dallas entertained views on
tliis subject in accordance with the most ultra
Southern statesman. The w holeCxbiuot opposed
tho Wilmot Proviso a* applicable to any territory
South of 35° SO*. But bow is it with tbo Cabinet
or Don. Taylor? First and foremost stands Mr.
Fillmore, a Proviso man, an advocate for the abo.
(itiou of slavery its the District uf Columbia, for its
restriction everywhere, where it could be reach
ed by Congressional legists tior.. Mr. Ewing is a
rabid asii-slavoty Proviso man of the Ohio stripe.
Hi his public spaoche* last summer, be assured tho
people that Gen. Taylor woulJ not exercise any
iuflueuco againtt nuti.slavery, and “ that Ac would
veto no bill containing the Wilmol Proviso. Mr.
CoIIamer, of Verm mt, tho new Post Master Gen
eral, is anti-slavery to the core. He is a Giddiugs
man on that subject and, an old lashioncd .Yew
England Federalist. He is one of Iboso who said
last summer, •• that a Whig had no noed to change
to fiud the Free Soil platform, but he had only to
stand fool." Mr. Meredith, from Pennsylvania, is
regarded also as a Wilm it Proviso man. Mr. Clay
ton, though moderate in his opposition to slave in-
stitutious, is yet kuown to favor the restriction of
slavery as to our territorial possession*. With sack
mass of Free Soiiism iu the Cabinet, with a ma
jority in C ingress opposed to slavory, what is tbe
Sooth to expect 1 What can aha hope 1 Indeed,
tho Northern Whig press still assert that Geu. Tay
lor kimtelf is in favor of tbe Proviso—that he will
not veto U. Oa other questions the Cabinet may
nut bo united. Iti* said Mr. Meredith is a fete,
trade man If 11, he cannot bo acceptable to the
majurity of bisco-CabinotulEcera, vboare known
be Federalist* and Prulcctiouist*. Time will
devclope the future. l,ot qs i|a{ condemn iu ad

and without delay to answer me this question.—
Have the prnqdc of the slave bolding States, a legstl
constitutional right to move with their negroes to
Cidiforniuand New Mexico, uiwler the broad trgis
of lhe Anifriccn celistitulion, witlcmt trailing for
am act of Congress (a protect firm in thnir rights uf

li.jii r Will the Jonruul answer it, and, if it will
uot, will uot soma one of its own party friends call
ou it tor an answer ? Let the editor uf tbe J car
nal answer this, and "Justice" as well as the pub
lic will then heebie to form something like a cor
rect upinmtf of bis position ou ibis slavery question.'
I liave hut a word more to say and 1 am dune to
day. Before Inking Wave of ibe public I cannot
refrain from noticing the puny aud pitiful effort of
tlio geullein in to lurk out of the whole affair, by
[cnSUIONICATKD j
lUesere. Jolmaan and Ivcraon.
The Congressional term of these gentlemen for
tbo prcfe.it at least, torminatod with tbe close of
the late Congress—and I weigh my words well
wheu I say that they both retire from offico with
out u single blot upou their publie career. The
one elected by tho people and the other chosen by
the Governor to represent tho Deraocratio party,
they have faithfully and unde via lingly kept tbeii
implied obligations to their party by adhering
steadfistly to its. great principles aud rendering
a sincere and eflicieut support to tho lato able ad-
miuiatrstiou which has just resigned the reigns uf
government, and the policy of which, has been as
wise as its achiovcuieuls have beeu brilliant. It is
no meau honor to any puhlio man to liave (maxed
through thc storin of factum and reckless denia-
gogueism which has raged so furiously duriug the
two past two years, without at auy time yieldiug
his iulrgrily or violating his |>ulitical consistency;
and in this rejpoct tbe Democracy uf Georgia catl
point with pride tu tbe course of these gentlemen*
as furnishing bright and (liming examples uf tree
and faithful public servants. Without intending
to detract anything from the merit aud deserv
ed popularity ol Ilia other geuUcmeu com
posing the Democratic dclrgalioo from this State.
I may say U1.1t by honoring such men as Joint*.-)
and Iverson with scats iu the national councils, the
State honored herself. The Democracy of Gmirgia
owe it to themselves, not less than to these gentle
men whose brief tern! of service promise* so well
for (be future to give them their approving voices,
snd encourage them in their career. Let them he
greeted uow with plaudits of well duoe good and
faithful servants, aud ‘•rcmriuLorcd hereafter in our

^fedical Convention
Io accordance with a call from the Medical College
of Georgia, and the Georgia Medical Society at Sav an-
cab, to the members of the Medical profession of lb£
Bute, a Convention assembled in tilts city on Tues
day morning, 20th Much, tbe attendance was full and
highly respectable, all quarter* of tho State being re-
presented. Tbe Convention was organized by call
ing Dr. Titos. Hoxcr of Columbus, to the Chair, sad
appointing Dr. Borxey, Secretary. On motion a
. committee was appointed, coosistingof one from each

to meet the poiut aud fall# powerless to the ground.
Being unwilling that auy one should aufl'or 00 my
m:cuuut, I have deemed it proper to say this much
io vidication of au unoffending person, whom tbo
editor has so unjustly assailed. I consider it ex
tremely indecorous, and to lay the lenxt of it un-
courteous on the part of the editor, thus to wan
der from the issue, iu ordor to make a most gross
»nd unwarranted attack upon au individual with
out cause; and that too, when there was every rea
son to baiiove the editor well knew be was oot tbo
author of tlio article signed "Justice." And yet
he lecture# mo ro hie first article for reflecting to
severely upon his uortbern allies; now if 1 am
any judge of small matters, I tbiilk, in bis invidious
comparison, ho has east a greater slnu upon bis
northern brethren than ever “Justice" has done.—
But poor fellow! I pity him, as Ire must indeed

But speaking of "respectability," tbo editor
would iusiuuatc that "Justice" was not respectable,
and says -he ha* no idea of endorsing (-Justice's"

iloe# be de#iro tho editor to endorse bis respecta
bility. "Justice” needs ao endorsement, besides
he consider* ir no credit to any body to bo oudors-

In conclusion permit mo to commend my rriend

DR. WAYNE'S COMPOUND SYRUP OF WILD

A Tnoi.v Wondirfol Core h
Dr.Swayne—Dear Sir: Iu October last, while en
gaged with Mr. Joseph Smith, in a saw-mill, near
Waynesburg, I was attacked with a cough, from
being exposed at aigbt, which gradually increased,
atteuded with spitting of blood and a a evere pain hi
the breast, hiss of appetite, fever, Ac. Ac., which was
scarcely supportable. I bad a family who were whol
ly dependent ou pty exertions for support, yet was
obliged to leave my business and return bams. I
was then attended by savers! Physicians, hut still
grew worse, until my medical attendants gave me up
as incurable. Sebseqaently, my wife observing in
one of toe public prints, an advertisement of Doctor
dwayoe’s Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry, procured
ms one .bottle from Fraucit McClure, yoqr agent iu
Lewistown, which relieved me. I continued until 1
had taken five bottles, f am now able to return to my
work again. I write tbis to offer you my sincere
thanks, and you are at liberty to make it kuown, ao
that if any bomao being is suffering as I have been,
he may have recourse to your invaluable medicine.
Yours, John P. BoT.nz.

as far as we cau loam, no speeifird time was tmincd
that tlie reserved should remain ensold—nor does it

In conformity to these views, snd strictly within tlie
limits efscientifie medicine, have the Tunic Bitters,
Vegetable Pills and Antacid been prepared, for the
core of dyspepsia in all its complicated forms. The
Bitters are quite pleasant and gently stimulating, thr.t
are to bo taken two or three times a day, the Antacid
at meal times, and tlie Pilla. jwbich are t .mic and lax
ative.) at night. By thus using toe medicines daily,
the most wretched ease of dysprpsia in alt the country
will at once begin to improve; not oaly'of that tightness
and uppressiun after eating, or tbe eructation of food,
but tbe power* of digestion strengthened, and a regu
lar action of the bowels uiaiutaiucd. Notwithstand
ing tlie languor and wretchedness of feeliug during
the hours of digestion are removed. yet the medicines
must be continued regularly, with proper attention to
diet, until every VCStige of the disease is eradicated.
Invalids, however feeble or delicate, can use them
with tbe utmost advantage, as they never nauseate
tho stomacb or disturb the bowels more Ran a mild

Tbe following is from a distinguished Baptist cler
gyman, who is extensively known in Georgia:
Talbot Co June 18(8.
Dr. Little—pear Sin Having been so much benefi
ted by your medicines, I will cheerfully state the esse.
For years past I have beeu badly dyspeptic, such as
Tightness and oppression after men's, scidity of tlio
s'omach, debility, want ofdigestion, Ac. In thia state
many articles of food were obliged to be avoided, to
say nothing ofthe languor and wretchedness often ex
perienced any way. is was about euder th se cir
cumstances, I began using your Antacid Vegetable
Pills and Tonic Bitters; very soon I found much relief
with quite an improvement ofhealib. The medicines
Icontinued with the greatest advantage, particularly
toe Antacid, finding it always to give quick relief and
to promote digestion. I hail not taken them long be
fore I could nse any kind of food Ichppse with impu
nity, even cabbage and other things heretofore inad
missible. Formally mouths past (since taking the
medicine) I have enjoyed good health, which has not
beeu tbe cas) for years before. Those of my friends
and acquaintances similarly afflicted, I wou,d advise
to try these Dyspeptic Medicines.

D R. w. W. MARSHALL, of Macon, Georgia,
would call the attention of the public to a number
ut certificates published, and which he will continue
to publish in various papers in the .State, of cases of
Fistula cared by him. In tire treatment uf Fistula re
course is generally had to the knife, which is alvraja
painful and often hazarduns and very frequently un
successful.
More than one-half of the cascr tiiat have copje un
der bis care of late, had been subjected to the knife
without experiencing tho least benefit, bat rather
made worse. They were perfectly cored by Dr M.
without the use of tbe kuite, or any such operation,
without the least danger, and with but little or no
paid- Di most cases tbe treatment does not prevent
the ordinary pursuits >f business. aUliongii the patient
i* necessarily obliged to be under the immediate ca're
and supervisor; of the Doctor from one to four weeks,
acv-ordmgly, os tint nature and .circumstances of tiro
cue may demand.
Dr. M. does nut exaggerate, when he says tbat tlie
plan of treatment he pursues is obliged to succeed in
ninety-nine cases oat of u hundred, if uot in every cue

This is to certify that for near fifteen years I was
affiicte.1 with that dreadful.disease, Fistula, and for the
last twelve mouths suffered so much pain' as to inca
pacitate me almost from attending ti> my bnsiness.—
During ton time 1 cousuitud several physicians both
in tills city aud Charleston, and was reformed by nil of
them, thu disease was incut able save by the knife of
the surgeon. Learning the operation was net only
vory painful, bnt dangerous and not always succ essful
1 was very much opposed to submit tu it,* and allowed
the disease to progress so far as to present tho alter-
native to submit to be operated upon, or die. At this
tiuis I saw Dr. Marshall s card in the Christian Advo
cate, and communicated with him on the subject, and
alter beiug satisfied that he dpi cure the disease, I de
termined to place myself under bis treatment, and be
commenced to treat*wy case. I remained there four
weeks ami returned Imtna dearly well, and I am hap
py now- to say" entirely restored. I wnnlil no doubt
have been entirely well much sooner, but kept the
place irritated from riding every day on horseback
several lailes. With regard to the Doctor’s treatment
it is attended comparatively with little pain, I was at
uo time confined to the bed more than one day, and to
tlie bouse but a very short rims, flensed no knife,
(aud so for as I could judge,) no caustic. 1 am per
fectly satisfied that the Doctor, with his peculiar mode
of prartke, can cure the inoat cases of Fistula with
less pain to the patient, in a shorter time and wi:h
more certainty than any physician that I have heard
cf, and would with .-Teat confidence, arising from er-
pcrienco, advise ail who arc affiicted with this dread
ful malady, not to hekitate but nt once to place them
selves under histreatment. and I doubt uot their most
sanguine expectations will be realised.
It gives me great pleasure to say that in all my in
tercourse with Dr. Marshall, I found him the perfect
gentleman, Bud au intelligent devoted Christian
