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 twelve, thermometer at 98; stopped to look at that ugly market house in the centre ot the street, with both ends bunged up ; got s > mad liked to have choked, and should* lull for Poufs bubbling Soda Fountain , which 1 found next square above. Avaunt Alcohol! I’ll none of tiiee. Thou hissing, sparkling, ice-cold, delicious draught, the throat gives thee hearty welcome. Get out, you ill-begotten, misshapen, fly-blown, awful market-house, you cannot be swallowed. Army Promotion. —Our esteemed fellovv citizen, Lieut. L. P. Heiutzelman, has been the rank of Captain. He will continue a resident in our city, and discharge the duties of Quarter Master. 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 tice, in his biography of Henry Clay, says, 4 Slavery in the abstract he views with unmin gled abhorrence. He justly considers it a 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 ning. We would add for Shelly, that he held a pen pointed with a soft and silvery mooii bea m. John Quincy Adams is writing poetry to Miss Ellen Tree—go wav dur—ole man too foolish. 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. E. F. C. 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.

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.

July 25. 26ts 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. Clarksville, Mecklenburg co. Va. Feb. 7, 1837. 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. S. 11. HARRIS, M. D. £>r. Joseph P. Peters. Mecklencdrg Cos. Va. Feb. 7th, 1837.
