GEN. BAILEY.
In giving publicity to the following card, |
wa must simply remark, that the name of
Gen. Hailey was sent to us by a gentleman of
high respectability, who requested that we
should announce him 3s a candidate, it be
ing the wish of many of his friends.
To the Editors of the Sen'inel and Herald.
Gentlemen: —The annunciation of my
name, in your paper of last week, as a can
didate for the office of Judge <>f the Inferior
Court, was made not only without my author
ity but without my knowledge or consent. I
was not at the polls during the election, but
I expressly stated in the streets, both on the
day and before that period, whenever the
subject was mentioned in my presence, that 1
was not a candidate, and did not desire to be
elected. This statement is made not so much
on nay own account as from a sense of what
is due to the Voters of Muscogee County,
upon whose suffrages, on account of mv very
short residence amongst them, if for no other
reason, I have no claims.
Your obedient servant,
August 7, 1933. S. A. BAILEY.
AYalking up Broad street at half past

Alcohol! I’ll none of tiiee. Thou hissing,

Brandretb’s pills are declared to be a sove
reign cure for ‘yellow fever’ and the disease
now known as 4 hot weather’ or 100 degrees
in the shade. A Western editor savs they
are also effectual in ‘ relaxing a political con
science.’ Mr. Van Boren, we understand,
carried a full supply with him to the Springs.
Enquirer.
On enquiry, we learn that these pills are
also a sovereign cure for the lockjaw. If our
beloved brethren will take a liat full, perhaps
they may find relief, and be able to speak in
l’avor of some candidate for the Presidency.
.Mr. Clay opposed to slavery. —Mr. Pren

4 Slavery in the abstract he views with unmin

monster of evil—a deadly vampyre, draining’
away the life blood of the republic.’
It has been said by some glittering writer,
that the difference between Scott and Byron
corsisied simply in this: that Scott wrote
with sunshine for a pen, Byron with light

a pen pointed with a soft and silvery mooii
bea m.

From our travailing Correspondent.
White Sulphur Springs, Va. July, 1838.
Dear IF. —ln compliance with my promise
I seal myself to address you. 1 have but
little of interest to commit to paper, further
than an offhand description of this truly de
lightful watering place, and ihe pleasure of a
journey across the mountains, which muM be I
performed by all who would add their com- |
pany to the multitudes which, in quest of
health or pleasure, annually throng the ‘tent
ed fields’ of the various spring'! in the valleys
or mountains of Virginia. Let us now take
our seats either in or upon the commodious
but crowded stage coach, and Laving the
beautiful and flourishing town of Lynchburg,
commence the trip. Day is just breaking; I
six-in-hml, at a rushing pace, up hill and j
down (bile, through clouds of dust, the driver j
goes ahead. I > a lew hours we arrive at |
the village of Liberty, where we are met I
by the smiling face of Mr. , the affable!
and courteous landlord, whose invitation to
partake of a thoroughly orthodox mint jnlap
is seldom met by a deaf ear. Having break
lasted we are again dashing along the road,
in the direction of the mountains; the passen
gers are as sociable as can be expected, con
sidering all are accidentally thrown together
from various parts of the country. A stage
coach acq a i tit a nee, more oft n thin other
wise, ripens into a solid and lasting friend
ship, though the privilege of cutting such an J
acquaintance, at anv time you may chance !
to meet, lias settled down into an absolute
law. Often the conversation kept up among
the occupants of a singe is of the most amu
sing and instructive kind : of this character*
were the lengthy dialogues in tlie 4 Great
Western,’ which were closed at last, during
an interesting debate by a ‘ comm ttee of the
whole on the state of the union,’ bv our ar
rival at the dinner bouse, situated near the
base of the peaks of Otter. Mr Buford, the
keeper of the house and proprietor of the line
of stages, is as fine a specimen of the hospi
table old Virginia gentleman as one would
wish to see; ‘good cheer’ is written upon
his broad good humored face; and 4 plenty’
upon the rotundity of his figure. Having
dined and changed horses we commence the
toilsome operation of crossing the Blue Ridge;
it is a tedious task for both man and horse,
this business of ascending a lofty and rugged
mountain, although the road is an excellent
turnpike, and puts “the rutty thoroughfares of j
many a level country to an nnen shame.—
This fine road, over a seemingly impassable
barrier, is an honor to the Old Diminion: it is
excavated from the side of the mountain, 1
and graduated to a rise of about five bun- !
dred feet per mile. We ascend at the rate
of two miles an hour. Not a breath of air j
is stirring, and the rocky side of the moon- 1
tain, with its scattered growth of dwarfish
pines, affords no protection from ihe scorch
ing rays of a mid-day sun. No sounds break
upon the almost death-like stillness of the
scene, save now and then tlie warning rattle
of a serpent, or the gurgling of some litile
streamlet as it winds its wav through the
deep fissures of the rocks down to the vale
below. After several hours of toil we near
the summit of the peak; the faint tones of a
human voice now break upon our ears; as
we get nearer we distinguish in that voice
the words of an old familiar song; nearer still
we see a small hut in which (seated at his
bench, the’ wax ends moving rapidly right
and left to the mu-ic of his voice and lap
stone) is old man Hardy, the toll gate keeper,
who, with Mrs. H. and many little Hard vs.
inhabits a little slantindicidar farm, which we
all agree is in a high slate of cultivation, be
ing some four thousand feet above the level
of the plantations of his neighbors! Let us
seat ourselves awhile beside the cold clear
ehrvstai spring, and refresh our wearied
limbs; at the same lime we'll find amuse
ment in the quaint observations of the garru
lous old mountaineer. A facetious o!d man
is Mr. Hardy; ask him is his place liealthv
he answers, 4 1 never expect to die here, but
may perhaps dry up!’ Ask what could have
induced him to locate himself in that spot he
answer*. 4 Fond of high living and a com
manding position in society, both of which
1 enjoy here, and am as happy as a frog in a
pond/ Having become thoroughly cooled,
by the western breeze which sweeps over the
summit of the peak, we again take our seats
in the 4 Great Western,’ (whose motto, in
letters of gold, ‘ O’er hill and dale my strength
prevails,’ we find to be true) and commence
the descent of the Blue Ridge. Swiftly we
descend the sinuous windings of the road,
careless alike of the huge masses of basaltic
rocks above our heads, which look ready to
fall down and crush us, or of the yawning
j chasms beneath, from whose brinks but a
| few feet separates us. Descending the moun
tain at the rapid rate of about 12 or 13 miles
an hour, we soon find ourselves in the valley
; of Virginia, over which we gaily speed until
the slanting shadows of the surrounding hills
give token of the approach of night. Our
day’s travel is about to close, and we will
Istop to-night with mine worthy host, Mr. S.
at the beautiful village of Fincastle, the situ
ation of which strikes the eye of the traveller
jas romantic in the extreme. On the east rise
the fantastic peaks of the Blue Ridge, gap
! ing every here and there in the face of the
i towering Alleghenies on the west, which re
| turn a lofty frown and seem to say ‘ I am the
back-hone of America.’ In the elegant hotel
of Fincastle we sup and enjoy a sound sleep
I after the fatigues of the day.
# # # * # #
Another day has broke, the driver ‘ winds
iiis mellow horn,’ the passengers drink theirs,
and ‘all set’ away we hie, to woo, in the
words of Tyrone Power,
‘ On Alleghany’s ton, Aurora’s wa'ring smiles.’
We’ll not say much about the tiresome
passage of those mountains; the least said
on that subject the better; suffice it, that
their narrow defiles and rocky declivities wero
safely got over, and we halt for a while at
Svveel Springs, where, amidst a seemingly
happy throng, we will take dinner, during
which a band of music in attendance strike
up airs as grand as the 4 fashionables’ put on.
Oar road from this sweet place to the White
Sulphur lays through a delightful valley, stu
pendous hills rise on either side; swift we
pass between them, and, after a ride of seven
teen miles, arrive to swell the throng at this
fashionable resort. Our soiled and jaded ap
pearance oil alighting precludes the idea of
■ cutting much of a swell’ now—but never
mind, after a while we’ll ‘ fetch a walk along
Alabama row,’ and like others pass away the
j time in scanning the appearance of the fash
| ionable loungers.
# v # # # #
The arrangements at the White Sulphur,
| although extensive, are insufficient for the
j comfortable accommodation of the great
; numbers who visit them. The waters are
isaid to he of great efficacy in curing many
‘complaints; but few invalids are here, how
ever ; the company now here numbers about
a thousand, composed of the grave and gay,
(lie old and young, from ail quarters of the
Union. Every evening those find of ! he
amusement betake themselves to the splendid
hall and join in the ‘ mazes of the gid
dy dance.’ Great numbers arrive and de
part daily from and to the Red, Blue, and
Salt Sulphur, the warm, hot, and sweet
springs; all are within a day’s ride.
A few days spent at the different springs
are not only passed in a manner at once
pleasant and agreeable, hut the body is in
vigorated by inhaling the pure wholesome air
nf the mountains, and using the waters, which
although repulsive and unpleasant to many,
at first, all soon appear quite fond of them.
I now come to that very interesting part
of a letter, the conclusion, and in bidding
adieu to the Virginia Springs I must say, in
the words of one of your favorite songs,
‘ Hurra for the Red, White, and Blue.’
Yours truly.
From the Vicksburg Sentinel.
Mr. Editor: —Having bestowed some few
thoughts on Hie pecuniary embarrassments of
the people of the southern states, I have come
to the conclusion that it is owing in a great
degree to the superabundance of what is
called money.
But as there has been so much speculation
on this point, I will submit a statement in
figures, which, as the Globe savs, cannot lie.
In the following calculation, I suppose all
the southern states to act together, but will
take our own state separately.
When the circulation of the banks of our
state is at (10,01)0.000) len millions —A wish
es to commence planting, and invests in lands,
negroes, etc. ($40,00J) forty thousand do!
la is—say amount of cotton produced at 10
cents per |h. amounts to SB,OOO
Interest on 040,000 at 10 per
cent. $4,000
Plantation expenses say 2,000 6.000
Leaving a balance in favor of
the planter of $2,000
Two years afterwards B wishes to engage
in planting, hut the banks have increased
their circulation from 10 to $20,000,000. For
the same quantity and character of negroes,
and the same amount and quality of lands
that A purchased fi>r SIO,OOO, B will have to
pay SBO,OOO, simply because the facilities of
obtainining money are doubled, say
! Capital invested, $30,000
Interest at 10 per eenl. SB,OOO
Plantation expenses in same
proportion, 4,000 12,000
Now can B's negroes produce
more cotton than A’s, because they
have cost m >re money, or will the
cotton seli lor more money in Liver
pool—certainly not: then amount of
cotton produced as before 8.000
Leaving Bin debt at end of year, 4.000
Thus we see B losing $4,000 per annum,
j and what is the cause? merely because we
have too much hank paper. Four years af
terwards, s.av the circulation of the state is
reduced to $5,000,000, which is one half the
amount that was in circulation when A made
j his purchase.
C. wishes to commence planting, and pur-
I chases land, negroes, etc. of the same amount,
| character, and quality, as were purchased by
A and B for the sum of $20,000
And the produce of the plantation is
the same, say 8,000
Interest at the same rate as
before, say, 2,000
Expenses in same proportion, 1,000 3,000
Leaving to the credit of C at the end
of the year, $5,000
I Ims you see that when our Legislature
attempted to give relief to the cotton planter
by authorizing an extension ol Bank discounts
and circulation, she taps making the planter
poorer, as it evidently diminished his profits.
Now I know that the above calculation is not
correct to a dollar; for cotton will sell for a
little more when the circulation is redundant
than when it is not—but the enhanced price
is not in proportion to the enhanced prices of
property and expeves of planting. File
price ot our staple is regulated in a foreign
market, where specie is the standard of value.

id 17 estern Rumor. —The Detroit Morn
ing Post states, on the authority of a gentle
man trom Canada, that a man had just been
shot dead by a party of Indians. He was
saul to be a young American, bv the name of
Alien, who was on his way, alone and un
armed, to visit his friends in the interior of
Canada. A body of Indians—to whom a
bonus has been offered hv the British Gov
ernment for patriot scalps— met him ; he step
ped aside to let them pass, and was fired at.
He died immediately. It was at least impru
dent, to visit friends at such a time on foot and
alonr.

DETECT THE THIEF—;?3OO REWARD
STOLEN from the subscriber’s stable, on Sunday
night, the 12th May last, a large, likely bay
tiORSE, at the time very fat, three shoes on. his right
for foot bare, long switch tail, and black legs, (ex
cept some white about bis hind feet) mane and tail,
some small while specks occasioned by the'collar, and
a small white saddle spot on the left side of the back
bone. A close observer will notice a small nick in the
lower lid of his right eye. He is seven years old,
trots and paces well, and works well in harness. Was
taken with the horse a remarkable bridle, constructed
for a halter to be attached to a large brass ring under
the throat, and one of the same sort on each check,
t tough by this time the shoeing and bridle maybe
changed. About five miles otf the thief stole a com
mon northern made saddle. Wat missing from the
u> ighborhoud at the same time, a vagabond named
Jordan Godwin, low, chunky made, somewhat stooped
or humped shouldered, dark complected, can’t look a
person in the face steadily, has a peculiar grin or
laugh, and motion with his hands and shoulders, and
a small scar on his upper lip ; he is fond of drink and
petty gambling ; though he cannot be called a very in
temperate man. He frequently uses the words, 1 I
go liings,’ and • lots and goles’ in his way of measuring
quantity, llis clothing is not. well remembered, but
thinks he wore away a white hat. striped roundcoat
and pantaloons. He was pursued to Americus, Sum
ter county, hut it is thought he was protected by
friends. When he leases here, it is likely he will go
to Alabama, perhaps M (bile. T wish all good citizens
in this and the adjoining States, to be vigilant in try

THE PUBLIC BLESSING which is now
universally admitted to exisit in PE EKS’
VEGETABLE PILLS, is every day demonstrated
by their astonishing efficacy in all the cases which they
are announced lo cure. This is no deceptive ot mer
cenary boast, but a tact undeniably proved by numerous
certificates gratuitously and voluntarily ottered lo the
proprietor, who, being a regular Physician, and having
practiced his profession for many years in different
climates, is enabled to offer to the afflicted invalid a
medicine, on the effects of which he is willing to risk
his repuiaiion.
He does not pretend that they are a positive cure,
or even beneficial in every complaint; hut he most
positively buiieves that in every disease where a cathar
.ic or an aperient medicine isneeded, they will be found
superior to any of those drastic purgative medicines
which are so much puffed in the public piirits as puri
fiers of the blood. When taken according to the direc
tions accompanying them, thev are kighij beneficial in
the prevention and cure of Biilious Fever, Fever and
Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sit k Headache,
Jaundice, Asthma,Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement
of the Spleen. Piles, Colic, Female Obstructions,
Heartburn, Nausea, Furred Tongue. Distension of
the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea, Flatu
lence, Habitual Costiveness, Loss of Appeti e. Blotch
ed or Sallow Complexion, and in all cases of Torpor
of the Bowels where a cathartic or aperient .is needed.
They are exceedingly mild in their operation, producing
neither nausea griping nor debility.
Wherever these Pills have been once introduced
nto a family, they become a slanding remedy, and are
called for again and again, which is sufficient proof of
their good qualities.
Perhaps no article of the kind lias ever been effort o
to the public supported by testimonials of a character so
decisive, from sources as respectable, or dial lias given
more universal satisfaction.
They have the testimony of the whole medical pro
fession in their favor, while not a single rase of iff con
sequences or inefficiency can be allcdgtd aguin.-t them.
Hundreds and thousands bless the day they bttan.e
acquainted with Peters’ Vegetable Pills, wl.ich, in
consequence of their extraordinary goodness, have at
tained a popularity unprecedented in the history of
medicine.
The very circumstance alone that Physx'ans, in
every part of the Union, (hut more especially in the
Sou hern States, where they have long been in use,)
are making free use of them in their practice, speaks
volumes in their praise. Add to this fact, that all who
use invariably recommend them to their friends, and
the testimony in their favor is almost irresistible. As
an An’i-hilious remedy, and to prevent Costiveness,
they have no rival. One fifty cent box will establish
their ck aractcr, and prove that there is truth even in an
advertisement.
Prepared by Joseph Priestly Peters, M. D. at his
Institution for the cure of obstinate diseases by means
of Vegetable remedies. No. 129, Liberty street, New
Yoik. Each box contains 40 pills. Price 50 cents.

Dear Sir—l embrace the opportunity of expressing
to you my gratification at the success which has attend
ed the administration of your valuable Pills in this
section of country. It is a common fault with those
who compound and vend patent medic isles to say tot
much in their favor, blit from what T Lave seen of th<
effect of your pills I do not think they have, as yet.
received unmerited praise. 5-ix months ago they were
almost entirely unknown in this part of Virginia; they
are now the most popular pills we have, in dyspepsit
anti sick headache, derangement of the biliary organs
and obstinate constipation of the bowels, I know of lie
ap- rient more prompt and efficacious.
Their mildness and certainty of action render them
a sa f e and efficient purgative for weakly individuals,
and may be given at all times without any of those
injurious consequences that frequently result from the
long continued use of calomel or blue pills. On the
whole, 1 consider them a valuable dtscovtry.
Very respectfully.
