fSP We give a compendious account of
the proceedings of the Democratic Con

change in this week’s issue.
at The Elberton Star mentions that a
son of Mr. V. Henderson, of Elbert coun

The wound is dangerous but not necessa
rily fatal.

Deaths of two Distinguished Men.

Silas M. Borroughs a member of Congress
from New York died in Washington on

ty We learn from a private source,
says the Lawrenceville News, that the
Supreme Court has reversed tho decision
of the Superior Court in tho case of the
State vs. John Fundy, for the murder of
Hardin Colston.
Berret, the Democratic candi
date for Mayor cf Washington city, has
been elected by 21 majority. The race
is Raid to be almost the hardest one on
record, and only resulted as it did, by a
combination of all law abiding votes in his
favor.
ty Sunday morning a coffin was found
is Mr. Funk’s wood-shop much to his sur
prise. It had evidently from its scent
been just deprived of a subject. The cof
fin is about six feet two inches long, and
was not made in Greenesboro. We sup
pose that some of our physicians could ex
plain the whole mystery very satisfacto
rily.;
iy We are sorry, that some of our Dem
ocratic friends were disappointed in not
seeing an account of their late meeting in
this county, appear in onr paper the
next week. The request for us to copy,
which accompanied the report published
in the Constitutionalist, was over looked
by those who acted as editor in our ab
sence. Hereafter wo hope, that our
friends of all parties will direct their sec
retaries to fnrnish us with a manuscript
ac innt of their proceeding as soon after
every meeting a6 possible.
Murder.
A tnorder was committed in Upson eo.,
on Friday of last week by a Dr. Chatham,
upon Q. C. Howell. It appears that Chat
ham rode up to the field where Howell
was at work, and calling him aside, after
some words shot him through the heart
with a pistol. The cause of the murder
was some report said to bo circulated by
Howell relative to Chatham’s domestic
relations. Chatham has absconded, and a
reward of fifteen hundred dollars is offered
for his arrest. So says an exchange.
Dedication of the Presbyterian Church.
This new church will be dedicated next
Sunday. Rev. Dr. Wilson from Augusta,
and the Rev. Dr. Hoyt from Athens are

Cigars and Confectioneries.
Mr. Wilson, who is advertising his con
fectionery in this paper, is prepared to
furnish to emokeis one of the best articles
in the way of cigars, which it has been
our good fortune to meet with in a long
time. Those who wish the enjoyment
which we bavo had afforded us, will do
well to call ou him at tho old stand of

iy Don’t mean to insult you, but the
Grcenesboro Gazette told us to mind our
eye, and we are going to do it, though we
would kindly inform the Editor we have
the happiness of being the owner of eyes.
The above is from an editorial entitled,‘
“A continuation of things we thought of, - ’
in the Ladies’Department of the Thomson
Herald. Miss Belle Phillips, by managing
that part of the paper, has already acquir
ed an enviable notoriety. We clipped
from one of her articles two or three months
ago, some remarks which inculcated in
rather dogmatical style, the doctrine that
about the only way to get a kiss was sim
ply to take it without asking, and that bn!
tew unpleasant or dangerous consequences
would follow the getting one in this way.
We warned her in consequence of using
such language to mind her eye. We hast
en to inform her that we meant in doing so
no hint of any deficiency or obstruction of
vision in her. Wemust say though, that the
lady who expressed the opinions which we
have mentioned tho second time, should
not only be the owner of the usual number
of eyes, but should possess them in the
multitude, which was necessary to qualify
Argus to guard a treasure less precious
than ihe one Miss Phillips says may be
had withont'the asking for.
Murder In Oglethorpe County*
“Yesterday (Friday ) just at night, Mr.
Smith directed his negro man Jim to aid
the other negroes to put away some straw.
Jim refused and offered his master some
insulting language, Mr. Smith ordered
him to hush, and made some attempt to
get a switch, when the negro rushed on
him with a knife, and continued cutting
until his master died. The alarm was
immediately given. This morning the
negro was found and confined, The de
termination is uow to burn him publicly
to-morrow morning at 9 o’clock.”
is an extract from a private
letter of a citizen of that county. We
were intimately acquainted with Mr. Wil
liam Smith, aud feel shocked beyond our
powers of expression at the news of his
untimely death. The deceased was a man
wo believe, considered by his neighbors ot
of exemplary morality. Though his soul
was sent suddenly to its dread account, we
are encouraged to hope it went nut unpre
pared.
For the honor of the old county in
which we lived so long, that wo look upon
it almost as our native county, may we
shortly hoar, that these so justly incensed
against the murderer, have decided to leave
him to the vengeanee of the law. That
law has prescribed the mode of death
which shall be the punishment for his
crime, and any other, or even that intiicted
by lawless authority, will be thought of
afterwards with shame and remorse, even
by those those the most injured in losing a
dear friend or a near relative.
[We bear since writing the above, that
the negro was burnt at the stake Monday
morning.
The Late Duel.
We clip this account of it from the Sa
vannah correspondent of the Charleston
Mercury.
“Screven's Ferrymen the Carolina side
of the river, is fast becoming famous as a
duelling ground. Only a few days ago,
as you have been already advised, an af
fair of honor was amicably settled there,
after an exchange of harmless shots.
This morning tho FeiTV was the scene of
another duel, between Dr. Wra.B. Holmes,
of Waynesboro,’ and Llewei’er, A. Nelms,
of Warrentou, both of this i? f alc. The
weapons were double-barrelled shof guns;
distance, forty paces. At the first .firs,
Mr. Nelms received a portion of the dis
charge of his opponent’s gun in the body,
which terminated tho affair for the present,
though we understand that Mr. Nelms, in
his wounded condition, having
a second shot, which his friends, of course,
would uot allow. The wounded gentle
man was conveyed to the Pnlaski Hotel,
where the extent of his injury was more
definitely ascertained. Four grains of
buckshot had made as many flesh-wounds
in his body and left arm, neither of which,
however, is considered serious. The dif
ficulty originated in some proceedings
which took place in Burke county imme
diately after the adjournment of the
Charleston Convention, It appears that
the citizens of that county were uot satis
fied with merely endorsing the course of
the seceding delegates, but they had de
termined to express their dissatisfaction
with tho members of the Georgia delega
tion who remained in the Convention.
With this view, they burned in effigy the
non-seceding delegates, among whom was
Mr Nelms. Dr. Holmes was one of the
principal actors in this demonstration, and
hence the cause. Both gentlemen Arc
considered excellent shots, and exhibited
much firmness and bravery on the field.
Dr. H. escaped unhurt.”
An Old Shoe.—The Cincinnati Ga
zette reports:
A relic, in the shape of an infant’s shoe,
that is now two hundred years old, is in
the possession of a lady residing in our

age, and tbe shoe was worn by the grand
father of her great-grandfather, in cross

IG6O. There is its complete history,
which is very explicit aud authentic.
Tho wearer of this shoe was the progeni
tor of some of the most daring, as well as

Resolutions, also the following addjfjonal
Resolutions:
3 Resolved, That wo cordially approve
C> tiie action throughout of the majority of
our Delegation, actually present it the
Charleston National Convention at Charles
ton. v- 1
4 Resolved, That we do hereby re ap
point the delegates to that Convention, to
represent the Democratic Party of Ge.of
gia in the Richmond Convention, arid also
in the Baltimore Convention, believing
that tho whole delegation will be’ filling
to carry out the foregoing principles rafter
this expression of the will ot the [Georgia
Democracy. j ,"v‘ :
5 Resolved, That in the opinion ’ of this
convention, the Richmond convention
should commit, but take no action'towards
nominating candidates for the Presidency
and Vice Presidency until after the action
of the Baltimore Convention ; and that
our delegates, after such consultation, pro
ceed to attend the Baltimore Convention,
induced-as we are, to hope that the fatter
Convention may yet recognize, by its ac
tion, the Constitutional rights, of’ the
South
6 Resolved, That in the event the Balti
more Convention fails to adopt a Platform
recognizing the Constitutional rights of
the South, as indicated in the preteeding
esolutions, and noiriinate sound candidates
thereupon, our delegates withdraw from
said Convention and return, to unite in the
action of the Richmond Convention.
7 Resolved. That >ur delegates are here
by instructed to cast the vote o’ this State,
as a unit, on all questions arising in this
Convention; and that each delegate, who
may not be able to attend in person, is
hereby authorized to appoint a substitute,
such appointihent being subject to the ap
proval of the majority of the delegation.
A majority Report was offered, to the
following effect:
Resolved, That we reaffirm the Cincin
nati Platform, with the following addition
al propositions:
Ist, That the citizens of the United
States have an equal right to settle with
their property of auv kind, in the .organ
ized Territories of the United States, and
that nnder the decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States, in tKe case of
Died Scott, which wc recognise as the
correct exposition of the Constitution in
this particular, slave property stands upon
the same footing as all other descriptions
of property, and that neither the General
Government, nor any Territorial Govern
ment can destroy or impair the right to
slave property in the common territories,
any more ti'an the light to any other de
scription of property : that property of all
kinds, slaves as well a? any other specie*!
of property, in the terj itoi7.es, stand upon |
the same equal and Constitutional basis,!
and subject to like principles of recognition I
and protection in the legislative, judicial
and executive departments of the govern
ment. h
2nd, That we will support any man rtbo
may be nominated by the Baltimore Con
vention, for the Presidency, who holds the
principles set forth in the foregoing propo
sition, and who will give them his endorse
ment, and that we will not hold ourselves
bound to support any man, who may be-aj
nominee, who ontertains principles incon
sistent with those set forth in the above
proposition, or who denies that slave prop
erty in the territories does stand on an
equal tooting, and on the same Constitu
tional basis of other descriptions of prop
erty. ~
In view of the fact that a large majority
of the delegates from Georgia felt it to he
their duty to withdraw from the late Dem
ocratic Convention at Charleston, thereby
depriving this State of her vote therein
according to the decision of said Conven
tion.
Resolved, That this Conention will
appoint twenty delegates—four from the
State at large, and two from each Gou
gressional District—to represent tiie Dem
ocratic party of Georgia, iu the adjourned
Convention at Baltimore on the JBth iust.,
and that said delegates he and ace hereby

The Black Republicans and Mr Bell.—
The Republican press at the North are
down upon Mr. Bell on the slavery ques
tion, and declare that instead of being a
“conservative,” as he has been represented
he is an out-and-out “slavery defender and
extensionist.” The N. Y. Evening Post
has a long article on the subject, and de
nounces Mr Bell in no measured terms, for
the sentiment uttered in his speech on tho
compromise, that “the soundness of the
doctrine, that the constitution, proprio vi
gore, that the flag of the Uuiou, protects
the citizen in the enjoymeut of his rights
of property of every description, recogniz
ed as such in any of the States, on every
sea and in every territory of the Union,
cannot be questioned.”
Such is Mr. Bell among the freesoilers.
Here at the South there are those who aro
unscrupulous enough to assert that he is
not to be trusted ou the slavery question.
So much tor party. — Sav. Republican.
Return of the Jews to Palestine.—There
are few current subjects of more absorb
ing interest or of deeper significance than
the events now almost daily transpiring
which point to the re-possession by the
Jews of their own land. The tide of prog
ress, after a lapse of centuries, may he
sa’d to have fairly turned in that direction,
and the prayer long offered by that chosen
but now scattered people, that “Judah
may be saved and Isreal dwell securely,
and that the Redeemer may come t
Zion,” is undoubtedly hastening to fulfil
ment.* The Sultan ot Turkey is encour
aging Jewish emigration to Palestine, and
is offering to sell them as much land as
they choose to buy, and it is said has even
expressed his willingness to dispose of the
Mosque of Omar to them, which, it will
be recollected, stands upon the very site of
the Jewish Temple on Mount Moriah.
This mosque is one of the Mahominedap’s
most celebrated shrines, being scarcely in
ferior in national importance to those of
Mecca and Medina.
A terrible tragedy was enacted in tlie
California Assembly a few days before its
Hdjouri incut. A member of the House,
named John O. Bell, was shot and stabbed
to death, almcot, in his seat, by one Dr.
Stone. Stone was a lobby member at
tempting to procure the passage of a bill
tor the division of the county represented
by Mr. Bell, and to which the latter was
opposed. Mr. Bell was in the act of con
sultation with another member beyond the
bar ol the assembly, while it was in ses
sion, when Stone- came, denounced Bell
as a liar, and immediately began shooting
and stabbing him. Tho unfortunate man
was carried away, and died two days af
ter. Stone was released on bail. As lie
is a rich man, the crime will go unpunish
ed. The Assembly took no notice of the
murder. Bell was from Ohio, anu was un
armed. Stone is from Kentucky. Sever
al circumstances show the acts to have
been premeditated.

Last Sabbath Rev. Daniel Waldo, of
Syracuse, who is spending a few days
with relatives in this village, preached
twice in the Presbyterian Church. Next
September Mr. Waldo will have reached
the unusual and advanced age of ninety
eight. Still he retains his health and in
tellect in a remarkable degree. The sight
we never expect to look upon again—a
clergyman preaching to the fourth gener
ation that has'rccupied the stage since his
birth. His discourses were extempore,
delivered with the clearness and Juice of
One just entering upon u uure age, rafter
than upon the verge ot a century. His
countenance beams with cheerfulness and
good will, and we venture that he is no
ascetic, but looks upon the bright side of
all things. It must be a placid spirit to
tabernacle so long in the clayey-tenement,
with so little appearance of decay-. Mr.
Waldo, it will be recollected, was Chap
lain of the 34th Congress, in the years
1855 and 1856. We trust he may see a
century.— N. Y. Exchange.

A Good o\k.—The New York Times
compares the pity of the New York Herald
to the way in which old Touch wood’s sons
“fp'rcd the Lord ’’ These sons were
sadly addicted to wicked practices; and
one Sunday morning the u.ioiKicr of the
p'-‘sh met one of tnom starting for the
woods with a gun on his shoulder. Seek
ing out the father, the clergyman told
him that be ought to admonish bis sons,
and bring them up in the fear of the Lord.
“Fear the Lord,” replied old 1 ouchwood
“they are so afraid of hint now that they
daren’t stir out on Sunday without a
double barreled shot gun in their hand !’

A Card to tbe Suffering-.
Tho Rev. William Cosgrove, while laboring
as a missionary it} Japan, was cured of Con
sumption, when all other means had failed, by
a recipe obtained from a learned physician re
siding in the great city of Jeddo. This recipe
cured great numbers who were, suffering from
Consumption, Bronchitis, Sore Throat, Coughs,
and Colds and the debility and nervous depres
sion caused by these disorders.
Desirous of hem fitting others, I will Bend
this recipe, which I have brought home with
me, to all who need it, free of charge.
