Hall of the Knights of the Screw.
Saturday night, Jan. 7, 1858.
The order of the Knights of the Screw assembled
agreeable to adjournment. The most excellent
“Originator assumed the duties of his office and
delivered himself of the following Inaugural Ad
dress.
Knights, Romans and Fellow Countrymen,
Language is inadequate to express my gratitude
to you in having assigned me, through your par
tiality and kindness, the office of “Originator,” for
it is one pregnant with the recollections and follies
of Lord Fillmore. I am, as the individual said when
he imbibed the oleaginous lacteal secretion, “too
full for uterance” on the present occasion, and
consequence of w-hich I shall detain you but a brief
period of time, and present for your especial benefit
a history of the Knights of the Screw, believing
Ido, that if my remarks are not appreciated by
you, the fault may be attributed to your heads and
not your hearts.
Follow me upon the zephyr’d wings of eternal
time unto the smouldering ruins of that ancient
city Coonville in Warecounty, as it appeared
in the year 1999. Her halls of revelry arc stil
bathed in nectarian whisky flowing musically from
the midnight origies of the bacchanalian king.
Tho dazzling display of steel clad knights with bur
nished arms and cmblazened banners is in the lan
guage of the immortal Puckett “non cst comatibus,
or to render a more literal translation, they have
'kicked the bucket.” This concourse upon which
we have just, looked gave life to ths ignorance, im
pudence and humbuggery of the “Knights of the
Screw.” It approaches us moistened with the tears
from the vasty depths of the briny Ocmulgec,
nears us and finds familiar spirits’, lingers on its
ethereal transit to the halls of tho nearest grocery.
Then why should we be laggards in the chase—why
prove recreant to our first love and through diffi
dence prevent our names from being inscribed up
on the docket it carries in its bands to be unfolded
to the eyes of the next Superior Court. It be
hooves us to inculcate kindred feelings and-brother-
Iy love, that when we have “shnffled off this mor
tal coil,” or removed to some distant city, (for in
stance East Macon)—that when the places that kno
us now will know us no more, a smile may mark
our parting, and from the admirer of veracity,
tear may bedew the places where we now lie. Let
us burnish the chains of friendship, and unite each
severed link that we may be bound the closer and
fight one common fight together, (in which fight
there is to be no flinging down.) And here let un
pledged bards chased by the “wild winds of adver
sity” or the Sheriff, find a resting place for their
poverty stricken souls. Having been promoted to
the office of “Originator” I shall abide strictly by
your constitution, regardless of my own, and shall
immediately abolish mad dogs, musquitocs and
counterfeit money, and advocate the total annihi
lation of politics, camp-meetings and jails. When
I have accomplished my object, I shall be led to
exclaim in tho terrific language of Napoleon when
preaching in the wide wilderness “Richard’s him
self again.”
I would enjoin upon you co-operation, for with
out it I would, in the 'anguarge of Lord Byron, be
“Ilictum noctum catnip humbug engloomy et pos
sum ct coon.” Then ia the name of all that is
most dear, cherish but one thought; let onward be
be your talisman—“gallop apace ye fiery footed
steeds,” and make the earth stand still and j ump for
joy. “Hence ye Brutus, broadaxe and glory.” Sup
plicating your forgiveness for having thus long tres
passed upon your patience, permit me to bid you
one and all a kind farewell. The Screw Driver will
please pass around the hat.
Officers were then put in their stalls and chained.
Constitution was not read owing to a deficiency
on that point, in the early education of its mem
bers; it was therefore destroyed. Appointment of
members to write essays and poems.
Order adjournment to beer shop, as appointed
by the Constitution.

A Hungry Elephant.
I have heard a great deal of late about “see
ing the elephant," and the expense incurred
on seeing Mr. Leatherears ; but I believe few
of your “Gossipers” have been placed in such
an awkward fix as your humble servant, in be
holding this mammoth of living quadrupeds
But as you declare that brevity is the soul of
wit, I will proceed at once to unfold an ele
phant ta(i)l(e) (or rather trunk), which cost
me a new hat. Like many others, I had a
longing desire to Bee the elephant, not in its
metaphorical sense, for I was always too
straight haired a youth for that sort of game—
but the actual animal, with t .vo tails. So I
took the first opportunity of visiting a men
agerie of wild beast (save the mark, the poor,
half-starved creatures seemed far tamer than
manv of the beasts who went to see and tor
ment them.) After having visited the per
forming lions and tigers, aud those incarnate
imps of mischief, the monkeys, I came up to
Mr. Elephant. There he stood, in all his
brawny proportions), to the no small admira
tion of the gaping crowd, many of whom were
feeding him with sweet cakes. I followed
their example, and invested a few cents in
cakes, put them in my new beaver hat, from
which I fed my pet with the flexible proboscis.
But mark the ingratitude of the clumsy
scoundrel. I suppose he thought 1 was not
quick enough in my movements, or perhaps
thinking I wished to appropriate some of the
sweet morsels for my own use; at all events,
quick as thought, he stretched forth his india
rubber bludgeon, seized my hat, cakes and
till, and rolled them up into a neat little ball,
t.nd plumped it right into his great ugly mouth.
y ou may guess how foolish I looked when the
great monster rolled my hat about between
his teeth, and old and young were like to
burst their sides with laughter. I saw there
was nothing for it but to enjoy the joke as
well as the rest; but inwardly I resolved to
beware how I served such able bodied beg
gars for the time to come.
Com- Paulding’s Instructions.
The following is said to he a copy of the in
structions sent to Com. Paulding:
Sir:— From information received at this
Department, there is reason to believe that
lawless persons are now engaged within the
limits of the United States in setting on foot
and preparing the means for military expe
ditions, to be carried on against the territories
of Mexico, Nicaragua and Costa Rica—re
publics with whom tho United States are at
pcace —in violation of the sixth section of the
act of Congress approved 26th April, 1818.
Aud under the eighth section of the said act,
it is made lawful for the President, or such
xson as he shall empower, “ to employ the
...ad and naval forces of the United States, and
the militia thereof, for the purpose of prevent
ing the carrying on of any such expedition or
enterprise from the territories or jurisdiction
of the the United States." I am, therefore,
directed by the President to call your atten
tion to the subject, and urge you to use all
due diligence, and to avail yourself of all leg
itimate means at your command, to enforce
these and all other provisions of tho said act
of 20th of April, 1818, against those who way
be found to be engaged in setting on foot or
preparing military expeditions against territo
ries of Mexico, Costa Rica and Nicaragua, so
manifestly prejudicial to the national^ charac
ter, and so injurious to the national interest.
And you are. also, hereby instructed prompt
ly to communicate to the Department the ear
liest information you may receive relative to
such expedition.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
Lewis Cass.
Tue Anti-Fishing and Hunting Law.—
We learn that six men in the employ of P.
Galagher, fisherman, were arrested Saturday
last uuder a charge of violating the act of the
last session prohibiting non-residents from
hunting or fishing within the limits of the
State of Georgia. Tha parties alleged that
they were In the service of Mr. Galagher, a
resident, but were required to enter into bondh
to appear and answer before the Superior
Court, in February next.
Albany Patriot on llie Sank Veto
Message.
The following from the Patriot is well wor-
thy of consideration
G°v. Brown refers to the returns of the
banks m a way which shows that he, like thou
sands of other well informed men upon the
subject, does not understand the mystery of
bank returns. They are a balance sheet sbow-
mg tli2 amounts of the several general accounts
which are kept, hut they are really no certain
indication of the solvency of the banks. Sup
pose a hank chartered with one hundred thou
sand dollars capital, with a promise that the
whole amount shall be paid in specie. A com
pany takes the stock, borrows the specie, pays
it into the bank, and thus commences legally.
The next day they discount their own notes
for one hundred thousand dollars, draw out the
specie, and return to its proper owners. At
the end of six months this bank makes a re
turn. They have by industry got a circula
tion of one hundred thousand dollars in bills,
and have accumulated in the bank one-half
that amount in specie. Now, thev would
make the following showing
LIAB1LITIIS.
Capital Stocks. $100,000
Circulation 50,000
loper cent.'divi
dend
Reserved fund.
ASSZTTS.
Notes discounted
and running to

10,000 Fills of Exchange 50,000
10,000 Specie 50,000
Profits 20,000
$220,000 $220,000
Who can tell by looking at this return that
there was not a dollar of capital invested in
the concern?
Gov. Brown is right in his opinion of the
inherent aud unavoidable evils of our present
banking system, and he has pursued such a
policy, as in his opinion was best calculated to
promote the best interests of the State. But
in our opinion, taking things as they now arc,
the money affairs of the people are so interwo
ven and complicated with the hanks, that any
measure which would cripple or destroy the
hanks, would re-act with destructive effect upon
the interests of the people.
Banks of circulation never have been, and
never can be, so restricted or regulated by law
as to make them safe depositories of the pow
er which they wield, or to secure the people
against their fraud or insolvency. The very
restrictions imposed by the legislature, are
the means of giving credit to the banks and a
false security to the community which make
them the easy victims of fraudulently or bad
ly managed banks.
There is but one remedy for the evils of
banking and for the panics which periodically
follow the fluctuations of the currency—per
fect freedom of trade in money and credits aud
the adoption by the State of the measure re
commended by Gov. Brown—an independent
treasury system based upon the constitutional
currency—gold and silver coin.
This is simple, but it would be effectual,
whilst it would interfere with no vested rights.
—Albany Patriot, Jan. 7.
The Filibuster Question in the
House.
The Washington Star of the 15th instant,
says:
“Throughout the past week the filibuster
jress have been predicting a great storm to
lave occurred yesterday in the House Hall, on
account of Commodore Paulding’s extradition
of the fillibustfcr Walker. .The reader of the
proceedings of the day will perceive that not
withstanding their blood and thunder prog
nostications, it turned out to be “not much of
a shower after all.” The most noteworthy
feature of the proceedings concerning the af
fair is the very general confidence manifested
in the President’s management of this matter,
No one ventured a hint even, of disapprobation
of the doctrines of the Message relative to
filibustering, upon which it is to be taken for
granted Commodore Paulding acted. Though
all are evidently burning with curiosity to
know all the President may be supposed to
know on the subject, the self-evident sentiment
in the House Hall, as the preceedings of the
day proved, is that the President has not only
been right upon the filibuster Walker ques
tion, hut is destined to manage it hereafter
entirely to the satisfaction of the country
on the basis of the doctrines of the annnai
message in that connection."
A Devoted Wile.
Gov. Walker's Vindication.
Washington, Dec. 18th.—Governor Walker’s
letter appeared this morning, addressed to the
Hon. Lewis Cass, merely elaborating Stanton’s
message to the Legislature of Kansas. He states
that he accepted the Governorship of this Territo
ry with the express condition that the constitu
tion should Ife submitted to the people for their
ratificationj>r rejection, and that he repeated these
views in his inaugural, to which the Cabinet had
made no objection. There is nothing in the let
ter reflecting on the Administration, but on the
contrary the style is purely argumentative.
A pedagogue relates a laughable story of
his scholar, a son of the Emerald Isle. He
told him to spell hostility. “H-o-r-s-e horse,”
commenced Pat. “Not horsetility,” said the
teacher, “but Aostility.” “Sure,” replied Pat,
“an’ didn’t ye tell me the other day not to say
hos ? Be jabers, it’s wan thing with ye one
day and another the next."

erpool just from Boston, with a cargo of flour,
sugar and merchandise, while laying at Rob
ertson’s wharf, in this place, last night, took
fire and burned to the water’s edge. Loss
estimated at $10,000. No insurance.

A correspondent of the Boston Post relates
the following in referring to the recent acci
dental death of Col. Wynkoop:
Colonel Wynkoop, of Pennsylvania, led in
to the field in Mexico a regiment second in
point of discipline to no regiment of volunteers,
except, perhaps. Breckenridge’s Kentuckians
He was distinguished iu many engagements
He captured Gen. Valencia aud staff; aud at
the elosc of the war he returned to his home
with laurels. He is now dead. The circum
stances are familiar. With his- wife, who is
an invalid, he was visiting the interior of Penn
sylvania for recreation and change of scene.—
The country is wild there aud sparsely settled.
One morning he went out with his servant to
shoot game for his wj^e. Iu handing him the
gun, the servant by accident discharged it;
the contents took effect in his leg, severed the
artery; and he lived but a few miuutes. This
has been told before.
An absurd superstition prevails among the
ignorant inhabitants of the region, against
touching a dead body before an inquest has
sat upon it. The servant had becu sent at
once for aid to some distance, and in vain did
Mrs. Wynkoop endeavor to induce by suppli
cate in, by promises, by offers of money, the
8tult:-ied neighbors to shelter and care for her
husband’s body. It was night. He still lay
where he fell; and there, iu that howling wil
derness, with the clammy dampness of midr
night gathering on her garments, did that del
icate woman, as frail as the wild flowers around
her that folded their petals together in that
weird solitude, sit alone on the chill turf, sup
porting on her knee the head of her husband;
and there remained, keeping her lonely vigil
until the breaking of the grey dawn, alone
with her dead and with her bleeding heart.
If the incident be a sad one, it becomes a
season set apart to lessons and pledges of af
fection.
Marriage on the Cars.—Quite a roman
tic affair occurred on the cars between Atlan
ta and Marietta last Monday morning. A
couple, on matrimony intent, got on the train
at Boltonville, Cobb county, intending to stop
at Marietta, and get the knot tied, hut finding
clerical and legal gentleman from Atlanta on
board, the ceremony was performed while
the train was making thirty miles an hour, and
went on their way rejoicing. This was deci
dedly afast match, and the only marriage by
steam that has lately come to our notice.—
Augusta Dispatch.
A few evenings since, a widow, who was
known hy the entire congregation to he great
ly in want of a husband, was pr aying with fer
vency : “Oh! thou knowest what is the de
sire of my heart!” she exclaimed. “A-mau!’’
responded a brother, in a broad accent. It
was wicked; but we are quite sure that sever
al grave members smiled on the occasion.
Canada Elections—Riots iu Quc-
BEC.
Quebec, Dec. 29.—There were a niftnber of
serious riqts at the polls yesterday. Three
Iiishinen were kil'ed, and many others seri
ously wounded. The military had to be call
ed to preserve the peace. The Ministerialists
have about 2,000 majority. Worse disturban
ces are anticipated.
Toronto, Dec. 29.—The result of the elec
tion in Upper Canada is unfavorable, so far,
to the Ministry, and in Lower Canada it is
favorable. The elections will be over in a
few days, when Parliament will immediately
assemble. „ ,, _
Tho wife of John A. McDonald, Premier,
died at Kingston to-day.
Price of Slaves.—The Panola Star of
Wednesday last says:
At the sale of Mrs. Bobo's estate, last
week, forty-one negroes, old and young,
brought forty-one thousand dollars. Some of
them were mere infants, and some old negroes
brought onlyfive cents a piece.”
Alcohol as a Medicine.
PHYSICIANS OFTIIE UNITED STATES
wolfe’s celebrated
Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps,
A Medicinal Diet Drink, of eminently salutary
qualities, manufactured by himself exclusively, at
his factory at Schiedam, in Holland.
It is made from the best Barley that can be select
ed in Europe, with the essence of an aromatic Ital
ian berry of acknowledged and extraordinary medi
cinal properties. It has long since acquired a high
er reputation, both in Europe and America, than
any other diuretic beverage.
In Gravel, Gout, and Rheumatism, in Obstructions
of the Bladder and Kidneys, and in general Debili
ty, its effects are prompt, decided, and invariably re
liable. And it is not only a remedy for these mala
dies; but, in all cases in which they are produced by
drinking bad water, which is almost universally the
cause of them, it operates aa a sure preventive.
The distressing effect upon the stomach, bowels
and bladder, of travelers, or new residents, and al
persons unaccustomed to them, produced by tho wa
ters of nearly all our great inland rivers, like the
Ohio, Mississippi, and Alabama, and from the large
quantity of decayed vegetable matter contained in
them, in a state of Eolation, is well known as also
that of the waters of limestono regions, in producing
Gn.vel, Calculi, and Stone in the Bladder. The Ar
omatic Schiedam Schnapps is an absolute correc
tive of these injurious properties of bad water, and
consequently prevents the diseases which they oc
casion. It is also found to be a cure and preventive
of Fever and Ague, a complaint caused by the con-
joint effect of vegetable malaria in the atmosphere
and vegetable putrescences in the waters of those
districts in which it principally prevails. The Alto
xinc Schiedam Schnapps is consequently in great
demand by persons travelling, or about to settle in
those parts of the country, especially, as well as by
many in every community where it has become
known, on account of its various other remedial,
properties.
I a all case3 of a Dropsical tendency, it is general
ly the only remedy required, when adopted in the
early stages of the disease. In Dyspepsia maladies
when taken in proper quantities, as a diet drink, and
especially at dinner, it is found, by uniform experi
enco, to be eminently efficacious in the most obsti
nate cases, whert even the best of the usual reme
dies have failed to afford more than temporary re
lief. In cases of Flatulency, it is an immediate and
invariable specific; and it may be administered in
diluted aud proportionate quantities, even to young
nfants, in all those paroxysms of gripiDg pain in the
stomach and bowels to which they are especially
subject, as well as in the colic of grown persons.
Its judicious adoption in connection with the prin
cipal meals, or when a sense of exhaustion dictates
its use, never fails to relieve the debility attendant
upon protracted chronic maladies, low temperament,
and exhausted vital energy, by whatever cause in
duced. These aro facts to which many of the most
eminent medical men, both in Europe and the Uni
ted States, have born testimony, aud which are co
roborated by their highest written authorities.
Put up in quart nnd pint bottles, in. cases of one
dozen each, with my name on the bsttle, cork, and
