found a verdict in accordance with the

by the Executive Committee with the
Convention as to the alleged usurpation of
the latter, was an illiberal unjust attack
—that the Convention conformed to long
usage in the State—and that as dissatis

the Charleston Convention, if the opposi
tion of even a minority would seem suf
ficient to endanger party harmony. From
the proceedings of the March Convention,
ie is satisfied that he lias received during

this party; but at the same time he is ,

there lean efeelly decried opposition tel
him, and that the further connection of his

but distract the party. He therefore un
conditionally withdraws his name from the

Macaulay as a Boy.
Zachary Macaulay the father of Lord
Macaulay .married Miss Sarah Mills, who
had been a favorite pupil of I lannali More
when the latter and liei sisters kept a ladies
school in Bristol. The interest therefore
which the distinguished authoress mani
fested towards the Macaulay family is not
a subject of wonder. She lud piobably
seen the historian in infancy and childhood
and been consulted as a high quthor-
upon his educational training. Two
letters, which she wrote to Zachary Macau
lay concerning his son, have just been
published. In the first, about the time tin
boy was twelve years old she advises
Ins being placed at Westminister school
bp dap, saying that like Edwin lie was no
Vulgar boy, and that he ought to have
competitors and was like the prince who
refused to play with anything but kings.
About two years later as the boy was leav
ing liar.nah More’s house, where be bad
been staying for several weeks, she again
conveys to his father some of her ideas of
his son. Shu had oveihearua debate be
tween Tom as &he affectionately calls him,
and n young friend who wasr qualifying for
the Artillery, on the comparative merits ot
Eugene and Marlborough as generals, and
had been astonished at tho quantity of
reading that Tom gave evidence of. He
repeated all of lleber’s “Palestine” at
breakfast- “and did it incomparably.”
She speaks of their conversing sometimes
in ballad thymes, and sometimes in John
sonian sesquipedalians, and remarks her
liking that he takes a lively interest in all
passing events, and that the child is still
preserved, that he is as boyish as he is
Studious, and is as much amused with mak
ing a pat of butter as a poem.
UP* The New Orleans correspondent
of the Charleston Mercury gives the fol
lowing account of the lale fracas between
an editor and an actor of the first mention
ed city;
“The newspaper fraternity and the ac
tors of our theatres wofte thrown in a dread
ful flutter l ist week by a fracas that occur
red iu a public barroon. between a mem
ber of the Varieties stock company, named
Coplaud, and. a Mr. John W. Overall,
. who has acquired some notoriety’ as the
man who “does the literary” for the True
Delta . Overall, it seems, has for a luug
time beeu in the habit of indulging in in
genious little pleasantries at the expense ot
the Varieties company generally, and of
Copland more particularly. The result
was, that Copland tool: tiie first convenient
opportunity to knock Oveialldown, where
upon the man of quill drew a revolver, and,
in his own expressive phraseology, “wing
ed” Iris assailant. 1 hear that the actors
say.the end is not yet. In truth, Overall
has availed himself of the liberty of the
press with a vengeance, and the scurrility
of the dramatic notices ot the True Delta
has long ago become a matter of town-talk.”

The Atlanta American thus discourses
of the lately discovered fossils, in Green
county:
The Columbus Enquirer of the 22d.
thinks that the reported discovery ot a
cave near Penfield, containing curious
fossil remains, is ‘truly extraordinary, it
correctly -reported.’ The fossil remains
were undoubtedly discojveied, but errone
ously classed. Tlie bones of the following
animals are said to have been found; hyena
bear, fox and weasel ; rhinoceros and
horse ;ox and stag ; rabbit water rat and
mouse. The hyena, was certainly the
remains of one liamilcar at whose shaggy
front, and deep-toned thunder Distfnionists
and Democrats trembled, and the earth
shook from ceuter to pole beneath his an
g y tread. What was supposed to be the
unties of the weasel was the remains of
“Georgia’s Pale Star,” without a doubt, as
a copy of ‘Grimsiiaw’ was found near the
skull. The rhinoceros, so classed, “Was a
Sixth District politician, whose conscience
was as tough as the hidw of that celebra
ted animal. The ox, as it was classed by
mistake, was the remnant left after death
by hydrocephalaus of an Accidental Veto
Governor. The Stag was a politician
distinguished for liis antipathy to water and
ibe Union party. The Fox, was a Yankee
political peddler, who would.have bartered
•iff liis conscience, had lie been favored by
Providence with one. The bones were
found lying near the one classed as that of
the ox, and resembled from their position
the twenty second letter of the alphabet.
Tbe Prize Fight.
•The English champion took a benefit at
tie St. George's Hall iu London, on the
28tli ult., previous to going into active
training at his favorite quarters at New
Market. Jack Hamilton, who .trained
Morrissey toA his fight with the Benecia
Boy, acted as master of the ceremonies,
a id introduced Sayers to the audience.—
The latter showed his champion belt and
cup, and in the course of a few remarks ad
dressed to the company, stated that he
was shortly to contend again for that iden
tical belt, and be earnestly hoped that ‘the
best man might win it.’ He was ready to
lay <£soo to £4OO on the fight, and though
lie was at one time very desirous of seeing
liis American antagonist, yet. as the layer
had broken faith with him on a previous
occasion when he Imd appointed to meet
him at Owen Swift’s and uever came near
tiie place, he now did not cate aloal s* eing
him until they met in the ring on the 16cii
ot Ap ll next. He discla.med any personal
feeling ot ill-will against the American, and
ouly hoped that they both might be well
ou the day, so that neither might have any
excuse o palliation to urge for iris defeat.
The Field says :
‘Both the champions have issued their
silken colors for the fight. Those ot Sayers
pr>smt quite a patriotic appearanct —the
Union Jack being displayed at tbe tour
corners, and the British lion rampant in the
centre. Those ot lleenan’s are not quite
of so national a character. They I ave the
red, white and blue borders, sunoni.de I by
the thirteen stars, with the American eagle
in the centre, bearing the motto, ‘May the
Best man Win ’ The disposal ot these
colors constitutes a very important part
<ri the work ol'the pugilist who is about to
fight in England.—They sre always made
of silk, and the two men matched use every
exertion to induce their friends and back
ers to take tlieircolore, with tiie stipulation,

that shonld he prove the winner ot the
coming fight he is to receive a sovereign

Railway Across the Andes.
Our American engineers scalp the high
est ranges ot mountains with the locomo
tive. Mr. Wm. Wheelwright, an Ameri
can, who hits been engaged for a long time
in building railroads in South America, has
explored the route and reports that a rail
road can he built across the Andes, thus
making a line from the Pacific to Rosario,
via Cordova, a distance of eleven hundred
miles. It is claimed that the advantages
which would accrue by opening up the
South American Statps to commerce, the
Rio de la Plata being navigable for vessels
drawing 12 feet of water, would be im
mense. The Argentine Republic lias of
fered a free graut of land, five miles in
breadth on either side of the railway, to aid
in its construction, and the project is gener
ally thought practicable. It is stated that
Mr. Wheelwjjjght, in constructing railroads
in South America, lias used gradients of
152 and 150 feet per mile, and carried
them to ail elevation of 6,000 feet above
the level of the sea*

Non-Inflammable Dress Fabrics.
The ladies will be glad to learn that a
method has been discovered by which any
dress fabric may be tendered uninflamma
ble. By direction of Queen Victoria, two
distinguished EnglLh chemists undertook
a series of experiments which have resulted
ii determining that a solution containing
seven per cent, of the crystals or sixty-two
percent, of anhydrous salt is perfectly an
ti-inflammable. They remark : ‘Tung
state of soda ranges among the salts which
are manufactured onvi large scale, arid at a
cheap rate A solution containing twenty
per cent, renders the muslin perfectly trotr
mflammable. It acts, apparently, by firm
ly enveloping the fibre, and thereby ex
cluding the contact with the air. It is
very sifiooth and of a fatty appeatauce, like
tale, add this property facilitates the iron
ing process winch all other salts resist.’
The following formula is given as having
proved efficacious, and will simplify the
application : ‘A concentrated neutral sol
ution of tungstate of soda is diluted with
water to 28 deg. Twaddle (an alkaliometer
so called), and then mixed with three per
cent, of phosphate of soda. This solution
was found to keep and to answer well.
It has been nitroduc-d into her Majesty s
laundry whore it is constantly used ’ The
so.utioir can be applied to any fabric. Ct
is only necessary to dip the cleansed artrcle
iu the prepared fluid, then dr: ii and dry
it, after which it may be ironed ; or, if pre
ferred, the solution may be incorporated
with the starch to be used in the stiffening,

this preparation, may charand shrivel, but

that nothing has been sAid about Mayor

Smith-Western Georgia. —The editor of
the Savannah /’<• publican, travelling in
South-western Gem gin. writes as -follows:
‘On my way down {through Lowndes
Cos., I noticed seveml sugar-boilers, and
learned that nearly all tlie sugar consumed
is made by the planters. It is said to -be
quite profitable, aud thought by some to
be a better crop than cotton. It is not sold
by the pound, but by the barrel. It is
first packed away in flour and whiskey bar
rels, then set aside to drip; after which
a flour barrel full of sugar commands fifteen
dollars, and a whiskey barrel twenty dol
lars. Some are very expert, and pioduce
an article not far behind the best samples
ot new sugars we see in our market. The
syrup is very good, and sells from thirty
seven to fifty cents per gallon. Rice, I
find, b also raised in sufficient quantities to
supply all home wants, and is quite as
much an aiticle of food as with us.’
To Correspondents of Newspapers. —Dr.

cept it as a full explanation of their non
appearance : ‘A communication which is
a fourth of a column long is read by most
readers, unless its subject is manifestly re
pulsive ; over half a column long is read
•by half our readers; a column long by a
third of them ; a two column article by
not one-tenth ; a three or four column one
by nobody whatever, except the weary
editor and his proof-reader, and the few
who may have a personal or very special
concern in the article.’
Found Dead. —The remains of a human
being was found a short time since in what
is generally known as the‘Hudson Pond?

deceased was dr owned by his own act. —
The Jury represent, from circumstantial
ev’dence, that the skeleton is the remains
of a citizen of Putnam county, by the nan e

suggested that it was of recent occurrence,

PHYSICIANS are gencr. lly loth to spec k
a word to praise of what are called ‘‘patent,
un did: es.” Indeed, it is an article in the code
of medical ethics, that a physician who
tions the nse of such remedies cannot he con
sidered a member of the National Association..
But there are exc- ptions to tue most stringent
rules, and main of the discip es of Esciilapiufr
have actually b -en coinpe k-d, by the foice of
facts t' recommend the use of Dm. J. Uostet

Doctors auid waa c-uogeaciou I suffered Iron'll severe
Coelivenesg and Diarrhoea ultimately. My ukiu waa
clammy and unhealthy ; my eyes and skin often Tel
low. Occasionally 1 had a’ voracious appetite, but
generally none hi all. A dreadful sensation of op
pression ou my stomach, with languor and a gloomy
sensation of sickness all over, kepi trie in anguish.—
You cun not know now much I suffered from an inda*
