(Times ix n't) Sentinel. COLUMBUS, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 10, 1833. Anew name lor an old tiling. WHIG MEETING IN MCoCOOLL lION. J*MKS JOHNSON. On the Bth inst. the Whig Party ot‘ Muscogee held a meeting in the Court House. There was nothing very definite done, except to change the* name of the Whig Party. That name was assumed in 1830 or there abouts. It was a good name; hallowed memories were associated with it; it descended from revolutionary times—but the men vho bore it in these latter days have some how or other rendered it odious —so odious that it is ufcessary now to change it in order to catch the ear and reach the heart of the American people. But, ye gods! what a name they have adopted in its stead. They uow call them* selves the “Conservative Party,” alia the stand still par ty—a name absolutely odious to every liberal minded man even iu Europe, and only.dear to those old Fogies who bow down before all the abuses of hereditary tyranny, and are proud of the oboin which bind them. The ‘‘Conservative” Party, forsooth! When a man goes through the country and changes his name at every new place, it is generally believed that he has some sinister purpose to accomplish. No honest man likes to enter tain an individual who calls himself Jno. Smith in New York, Jno. Jones iu Charleston, and Jno. Williams in Columbus, albeit, they are all iu themselves very good names. So we may reasonably conclude that a party which is “Federal 1 ’ on© year ; “National F.epubliean” another ; “Whig” another ; “Union Whig” another, and “Conservative” now, has neither a good faoe, a good purpose, nor good principles. The materials of the meeting were somewhat incon gruous. Hon James Johnson seemed to be the leading spirit. He addressed the meeting : Ho stated that after all the extravagance of the Government, there was in the treasury a surplus of ten or fifteen millions of dollars, and seemed to be of the opinion that something ought to be done to diminish the revenue. He was in favor of distributing the public lands among the States. He was opposed to war except when the natioual honor was involved. We join heartily in the etfort to reduce the Tariff to the revenue standard. By all means let the taxes be I'eduoed. This is old Democratic doctrine. We never heard before that it was Whig doctrine. But then as wo have a now party, we suppose we will have anew platform. It will ho difficult, however, for old Clay wliigs to mount upon it. The public lands are the eommou property of all the State*, and ought to be sold and the proceeds appropri ated to the current expenses of the government. By this means the taxes would be reduced and every part of the country participate equally in the common treas ure. We never can sanction the policy, therefore, of Mr. Johnson. The General Government even now looms up above the States and threatens their sovereign ty. Make it the grand Almoner of the nation and every vestige of State rights will be destroyed. Mr. Johuson must have picked up this new heresy among his new associates at Washington, ft has never been a Demo cratic dootrine. After this commentary upon the doctrines of the new party, the assemblage adjourned to meet again on Saturday, 11th inst., with the hope that Hon. Mr. Toombs would set on the new nest the “Con servatives” have built for the old hen whiggery and infuse life into the new laid eggs. We wish them a happy setting, but predict that Hon. Mr. Toombs will deposit an egg of free trade which will, when hatched, eat up the feebler brood of the “Conservative party*” The State Road-~&ov. CobbN Proposition. The publio mind has of late been directed towards the State Road, and several propositions have been made in reference to it, It is proposed to sell it, This we object to, as every year adds to tile value of the road. A sale of the Road now would, therefore, be a sacrifice. It is also proposed to lease it. This proposition is sanc tioned by Gov. Cobb, and is advocated by many promi nent practical men in various parts of tho State. We are told by the highest authority that the Road could he leased for Three Hundred Thousand Dollars per annum. We believe that hitherto the Road has been a burthen to the State, and has been kept going by taxa tion. This atibrds but another illustration that the State is incompetent to conduct pecuniary enterprises. —Every change of administration involves a change of officers, and instead of being conducted with an eye to pecuniary profit, State Roads and State enterprises generally are but too often made the instruments of po litical aggrandizement to the party in power. The poli cy of the State, therefore, is to lease the Road, say for terms of five years. W o object to longer leases, as by the extension of Rail Roads, tlio settlement of tho adja cent country, and various other means,'the profits of the State Road are destined to increase very largely, and the State ought not to place herself in a condition which would preclude the possibility of taking advantage of these circumstances. Cut the question of the greatest interest just now is, as to the disposition to be made of the proceeds ot the Road. Gov. Cobb, we understand, proposes to ap propriate the proceeds to the establishment of a general system of common schools. We thank him for the sug gestion, and will strenuously sustain this beneficent purpose, but not noic. The Road was built by the taxa tion oi every part ot the Slate. Every section of Geor gia is equally interested in the Road and is entitled to he heard in the disposition ot the profits arising there troni. W e object to tin; disposition of the fund sug gested by on’ Executive now- Ist. bc-eause our population is too sparse to enable us at this time to establish an elective system of common school* 2d, because the fund arising from the State Road is insufficient to ac complish the object. :>d. because the Rail Road system of Georgia is by no means complete. Let. therefore, the Road bo leased for ten years, and the proceeds ap plied to perfecting the Railroad system of Georgia. By this means every section of the State will bo made ac cessible, population will become dense, and the income of the State from her Railroads will be sufficient to establish a common stdiuol in every district in the State. On a recent occasion, Mr. Cc yllr estimated that two millions ot dollars would complete the South Western Railroad to the Chattahoochee, and run a Road along •ur W estern border. A ten years lease would place in the hands ot the Government thice miliious of dol lars, and, it Mr. Civler’s calculations arc correct, there would be ample funds not only to build the roads designated, but to perfect uuy other short lines that might be uund necessary to complete the Railroad sys tem of the State. Tem^aWthis county i M e “°™ nated *'• **wue aud F. C. Lowery, HW, tor reprtseutative* in the next j Rail Road Accident. We are indebted to R. Cuyler, Esq, for a telegraphic des patch received by him yesterday, from which we learn that the passenger car on the Macon & Western Road was thrown oft the track near Van Valkenberg’s.on Tuesday night last, by running over two cows, and was precipitated down an embankment and broken to pieces. On person attached to the train was killed instantly, and five passen gers were seriously hurt. Among the passengers was the ’ Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, who was much injured, but \ teaa better yesterday morning. No blame whatever is at tached to the Company’s servants. We clip the above from the Savannah Republican. We learn from Mr. Nisbkt, of Macon, that the man killed was a Breakinan. The Engine and Tender pass ed safely over the obstruction j but the passenger car was thrown off tho track and turned over. Every pas senger was more or less injured. Mr. Stephens had his arm broken and was severely bruised on the head and body. Hia wounds are said to be very severe but no apprehensions are felt for his life. His numerous friends here deeply sympathise with him in his afflic tions. He has been removed to Macon. Brunswick Railroad. —We learn that the citizens of Albany held a meeting on Saturday last, and appointed 25 delegates to attend the meeting of the Stockholders of the Brunswick and Florida railroad company, to be held at Brunswick ou the 23d inst. An additional subscription of $26,000 was made to this Railroad at the Albany meeting. — L Coosa County. —A Democratic oounty convention was held at Rockford on Saturday last, wheu Col. J. R, Powell was nominated as a candidate for the Senate, and Messrs. J. H. Weavc-r, and Wm. Garrett as can didates for the House of Representatives. [FOR THE TIMES AND SENTINEL.] White Sulphur Springs. A sojourn of a few days at this place, has been sufficien to convince me that what has been said of the efficacy of I the White Sulphur Springs in tho restoration to and pro motion of health, is, by no means, a matter of whim and | exaggeration. Aside from my own personal experience, ; observation itself has led me to this conclusion. Although i I am no ASscaulpius, capable, after a critical diagnosis of disease, of applying or prescribing the peculiar means of its cure yet, after a cure has been effected through the agency of any ostensible cause, I, like all others, lettered or unlet tered, have the right of opinion, even if that opinion be wrong, providing, in my view, it be found in the scale of | evidence. The first and most apparent change a person experiences during the use of these waters, is a rapid growth of appetite iu conjunction with a corresponding increase of digestion. Such being the case it is obviously evident that the Sulphur waters are adapted to the exigencies ofa large class of in valids, amongst whom may be included not only those whose systems have been debilitated and relaxed by the continuous warm weather of this ciirnate, but those also whose infirmities are the result of chronic affections. It has always been a conceded point that the wisdom of an All-wise Providence has placed within human reach such natural means as, being properly used and directed, will secure our highest social, moral, intellectual and pecuniary interests, and in spite of myself, (with due deference to the science and skill of those engaged iu the healing art,) I am constrained to believe that the aame Providence has afford ed us similar meaus for the promotion and perpetuity of health, and that the fault lies with us, who are ignorant of their properties and adaptedness. It would be useless for me to allude to the beauty of this place and of the scenery around it. You, as well as most of your readers, must be aware of the fact, that it is eminently pleasing and agreeable. The pine-clad moun tains, the rustling grove, vocal with the warbling of the merry birds, the clear bubbling rivulets, and the cool gen tle breeze all contribute to render it a halcyon, spot in our own pleasant land. Sequestered here during the heat of the day, one can then fully appreciate his retirement from the dusty atmosphere and rattling din of the crowded street; and wheu night comes on how pleasant to hold commu nion with nature jin its loveliest attire, while the million moonbeams, piercing through the tree-tops, tesselate the earth, and nought breaks the still silence of the place, save the voice of the whippowil. The impression ia abroad, by what means I know not, that no facilities for amuse ment are furnished here. This is erroneous. Every chance for innocent amusement is afforded that the heart could wish ; and the worthy proprietor deserves much credit for his efforts to the achievement of that end. Notunfrequent ly I have witnessed a company of gay young gentlemen and ladies, the graceful favorites of Terpsichore,?tripping the “light fantastic toe” to the sound of inspiring music. Access may be had at any time to the Bowling Alley and other places for gymnastic exercises. I can hardly feel myself justified in closing this article without some allusion to the gentlemanly and obliging de portment of the proprietor, the Rev. R. T. Mares. He seems not to have been satisfied in expending a large amount in preparing his establishment for the accommodation of visiters, but devotes his whole time and service in endeavor ing to promote their comfort and pleasure. His lady too, is unrivalled in point of zeal and urbanity. Her kindness and attention at all times secure golden opinions from all who know her. Her table is always loaded with every luxury the epicure could wish, or the markefafibrd. Such being the case, may we not well say, if the White Sulphur Springs be not a place of more than usual resort this sea son, the time has come when merit receive not its just re ward! S. E. C. 1 The Georgian of yesterday contains the fol lowing response of Col. Seaborn Jones on be half of the ladies of Columbus : Ladies of the Committee and of the City of Savannah. As the representative of the ladies of Columbus, I present myself before you, and in their name, receive this cake. Aou will readily perceive, ;at the slightest glance, that the utmost stretch of the most vivid imagination could not conceive that I am the embodiment of those ladies. With out any effort of the imagination I can easily believe that I see assembled around me the re presentatives of the beauty and refinement of the ladies of Savannah—still, I am the representa tive of the ladies of Columbus, and in their name I accept this cake, and tender to you their thanks. lam unable to find language ade quately to describe the feelings with which it will be received by them. They will cherish it as an offering of kindness and love. To the ladies of Columbus, it is due that I should say, the presentment of their cake was not a matter of deliberation—of consideration and consultation ; it was the spontaneous effu sion of feelings excited bv the festivities of the occasion. It came warm from their hearts. Had it not been so, one would have been prepared more worthy of your acceptance, hence the absence of all the ceremonies usual on such an occasion; hence the unpretending of fering of their feeling hearts. It is not the cakes —it is the dear sweet givers of them. The feel ings that prompted its tender, and the feelings with which it was received and returned, have given them both a true value. And, ladies, 1 hope it is the commencement of a new era in that social intercourse between you which alone can enable you to know and estimate each other —and let me assure you, when you do know them, you will take them to your heart of hearts. To men it belongs to calculate the advanta ges of railroads—the commercial wealth and prosperity they will pour into tho lap of Savan nah. It is for woman to cultivate and diffuse the finer feelings of social intercourse —tho ex tension of that refinement which springs from civilization, the communion of enlightened intel lect, and the cultivation of those finer feelings that draw our hearts more eloselv together.— To you wo are indebted for ail our refinement, and in the language of the poet, I may say— “ Nature made thee to temper man ; Wo had been brutes without you ; There is in you all we beiieve of Heaven- Amazing brightness, purity and truth, Eternal joy and everlasting love !” cakes are but the evidence of these feelings and of the desire you have to know each other better that you may love each other more. Let me then, in the name of the ladies of Columbus, say to you, come and see us —that we cherish you, that we will comfort you, and that we will welcome you to our hearts. Let me again say to you, in their name's l thank you for this offering of courtesy, of kindness, and of love ; and that their feelings can be duly estimated by those only in whoso hearts such feelings have growu up and been cherished. [From the Spirit of the South.] Meeting of the Eufauia Town Council. At a Special Meeting of the Town Council held the 3d insl. , the following Preamble and Resolutions were adopted , viz: Whereas, a desire has been expressed by a number of our citizens to the members of Council that some action should be had in re lationtoaßailroad, and preferringthat it should emanate from the Town Authorities. There fore, in accordance therewith, and being fully impressed with the propriety and necessity of using our united efforts as the constituted an thorities of the Town to forward whatever pub lic interests we believe conducive to the pros perity of the place—Beg leave to submit the following outlines as a starting point for the consideration of our citizens on this subject. It is generally known that the efforts made to extend the South Western Road to this place, has for the present failed, and that the extension of the Girard and Mobile Road is now progressing within 30 miles of us. The recent subscription, too, ot the ciiy of Mobile of over one million dollars will insure its com pletion. Hence we find our Town becoming isolated in its prospects, and will be left to de pend on the river communication mainly for its commercial support. Now whle we “fully appreciate the natural advantages of the river, it cannot be expected to serve the purposea of both united. An inland communication by Railroad to connect with the river is our true policy. Our position a3 a point of trade has advantages (as we conceive) which cannot be easily wrested from us, it our citizens unite with a proper spirit. We therefore recom mend to them to surrender all individual pre ferences, for the sake of effecting the most available line of Road that can be built. Let it be remembered that the question or point of decision is not what we prefer, but rather what, can be accomplished. We have already a charter for a branch road to connect with the Girard and Mobile road. This would put us in communication with the main line from Sa vannah to Mobile, and with all intermediate connecting roads. This is highly important. As it is notour purpose however at present to enter fully into details, or to demonstrate i the various practical advantages of the pro-! posed road, which must on reflection be ap parent to every citizen. But with a view to i immediate action on the foregoing recommeu- i dation or preamble, Be it Resolved, That the following gentle men be and are hereby appointed a committee to join the Town Council on Tuesday evening the 7th inst., to carry cut the special object of this meeting, and to report to a general meet ing of the citizens for final action, without de lay, viz Z. J. Daniel, L. L. Cato, E. B. Young, Hr. W. L. Cowan, | John Colby, E. S. Shorter, Jas. L. Pugh, E. C. Bullock, J. N. Copeland. C. R. Woods, B. F. Treadwell. Woman’s Rights. | The question which has got the title of Wo man’s Rights, is really becoming an important | one* It has allied itselt to abolitionism and al | most every other rickety and crazy Ism which | has signalized the nineteenth century. At the same time it is such an eloquent ism ; talks so well ; looks so bewitching in its Bloomers ; cuts its hair into such a piquant shape, varying the masculinity of the style by occasional “beau | catchers” —and altogether is such a smart, go ! ahead, loquacious, spunky, lively, plucky little ism, that it has obtained universal attention, and may flatter itself in having afforded hearty amusement to the scribes of this and every other country- ourselves included. | Imagine the Rev. Antoinette Brown pitching i into the slave-holders and those “brutes” of men! A bright-faced, quick-eyed little woman, with a genuine bust—no padding or putting, but real red and white flesh—working herself into a precarious perspiration, and endangering the strings of her stays in her efforts against tyran jny of every shape, whether we call it matri i mony or flirtation—warring on sucii an inno -1 cent symbol as a wedding-ring—embracing | celibacy, and beating back the devils of house hold felicity (including the “little ones’*) almost las fiercely as Luther and Saint Anthony—and ! all the while thinking that she is a reformer, an original character, a thinker, a Theodore Parker in pantaloons, or a Horace Greeley in gussets ! Poor Antoinette! so beautiful, so eloquent, so young ! She inn gines that she is doing a won derful thing in resisting her natural tendency to connubiality, whereas, every ‘•roman, from fif teen to twenty, has to do the same, with this difference, that she has the good sense not to proclaim it from platforms, or publicly celebrate her continence. What a pity it is that some stout and sensible New Englander does not take ! Antoinette quietly in bis arms—whisper the magic “will you have me?”—silence her theories i with a kiss, and—"brute of a man’’ as he may { be-teach her to appreciate the story of Beauty and the Beast, that she may understand how the rough-coated horror of the morning can take the form of a Prince at night! And, then, Lucy Stone ! another quick, capa ble, intelligent, and really good-looking woman ! How terrible is the fact that she will not under stand that linglets are a part of woman’s rights, and a “good head of hair’’ more invaluablo any day than a “mission/’ What, in the name ol cream-cheese, cookery, and all the etceteras,; does she want with that mission ? The sooner j she gets rid of it the better. -She would make j a capital wife. We would almost venture on j taking her ourselves. And we have no doubt | that, with a little sensible education, she could manage even a Southern house pretty well, j though she might whip the “niggers,” when in j bad temper, a little too much! No one woman, as a Western editor remarks, would “take” the Rights if she hadn’t the rickot3 ! We can understand how Abbv Kelly, or Ab- j by Folsom, “takes the rights.” What else have j they to live for but rights ? Their day has past. ■ Not for them the ball-room, the party, the bril- j liant niaze3 of the mazurka, or the refined pas- j sion of the polka ; not for them the radiant de lights of the tete-a-tete in the corner, before the “next set” is organized, or the charms of “moon- ; shine” on the homeward walk ; not for them the ; cautious billet-doux—the insinuating note —the bewitching bouquet—the sentimental siesta, or that “dear, delightful, wicked pet of a St. Preux;” j their season is past—their countenances are in the “sear and yellow’’ condition ; their bloom j is banished ; crows’-feet have cowed them ; j wrinkles and wretchedness have claimed them ; philanthropy and folly are all that remain ; and, of course, the result is, that they inevitably “take the Rights !’’ Now, it appears to us, that the first l ight of a woman is to say her prayers and look out for a husband; her next right is to get one—and, indubitably, her chief right is to keep him. But to do so, requires something more than crazy eccentricityor talent run wild. Every accomplish ment a woman is capable of realizing—every beauty she can cultivate—every grace she can educato into waving lines of elegance—is re quisite to please her husband and retain him her fascinated friend until the end of the “domestic drama/’ No labor is too great for such an ob ject, as her own happiness and that of her chil dren depend upon the continuance of his affec tion and respect. It is the duty of a woman to be good looking, if she can ; it is her mission to avoid being disagreeable. If she has not beau ty, its deficiency must be counter-balanced by amiability, which will conceal even positive ugli ness, and make a dark and pitted face as smooth! and fair, in the husband’s eye, as rose-misted marble. Above ali, sho should not cut her hair ala Lucy Stone, and come down to dinner like j a chuck-headed school boy,—a fright a horror, an abomination ! A true beauty is a glorious ! coronal of dark or sunny hair, as the ease may | be— “A gorgeous Lesbos crown, With Sapphic thread of gold !”. And any woman who considers that she is fulfilling a mission in curtailing its fair propor tions, is little better than a fool. Let us have no more of it. Our cure for Woman’s Rights is—Matri mony ! The Girard Railroad. We are pleased to learn that the ordinance authorizing a subscription of one million of dol lars on the part of ; this city to the above named road, passed the Board of Aldermen Thursday night, and will, there is but little doubt, receive the sanction of the Council. The ordinance in its present shape is more liberal than the one which had been previously acted on, in making provision by taxation for the interest, instead of requiring the railroad company to pay it, until the road reached Greenville. If at any time it should be found that either of the conditions of the ordinance unnecessari ly retarded the sale of the bonds on the progress of tho work, the necessary need of a change can be made without any difficulty. w e therefore congratulate this community, as well as a large portion of our State, on the bright prospects now afforded for a speedy, con nection of the Atlantic with the Gulf of Mexico, | by means of the Girard road. We look with confidence to the action ofi Savannah and Charleston in aid of the great j work, as they must necessarily be large sharers I in its conveniences and benefits. We are somewhat surprised to find in the Montgomery Advertiser and Gazette, of June Ist, some captious remarks respecting the char acter of this subscription, which characterise it j as a shame, and intended as a scarecrow to ! frighten off subscribers to the Pensacola road. Surely our Montgomery friendsdo not object ! to our building a road which runs by their door* ! way, and with which they must necessarily con* | nect, even if they consummate their design in building the other road. The action of the corporate authorities in • thus fully responding to the feelings of our citi* i zens, will put to flight all doubt and misgiving, i and deprive even those who are disposed to carp at us, of the means of mere presentation.—Mo ! bile Register. A few days ago, it was announced by tele* graph that Gen. St. Amaud, French minister of war, had been arrested in Paris for the as sassination of Gen. Cornemeuse. This story is based on the following translation of a part of a letter from Paris : *‘l ought to tell you that the general, mar* shal of France, St. Amaud, minister of war, was arrested last evening, by order or the i Emperor, for the following reasons ; Gen. Cor-, nemeuse, aid de-camp of the Emperor, found j himself in the cabinet of his Majesty with Gen. ■ St. Arnaud. A sum of four hundred thousand ! francs was there, and the Emperor eutering j his cabinet, asked for this money, which he i destined for the marriage portion of'the daugh ter of Gen. St. Arnaud. Gen. Cornemeuse searched everywhere, but was unable to find more than two hundred thousand francs, whereupon he said to Gen. St. Arnaud, ‘You and I only have been here, and it is only your self who could have taken it.’ Finding that he could not deny the charge, St. Arnaud in stantiy dVew his sword and killed Gen. Cor- : neineuse ; the latter having merely the time to make a degagemnt , piercing the arm of St. Arnaud. The scene passed under the eyes of the Emperor, and so suddenly, that he had no time to prevent the two blows. The matter is hushed up, but you may rely upon the facts, as I have them from a source beyond all doubt. St. Arnaud, you are aware, is the general who played so prominent a part in the coup d'etat of December. Without pronouncing upon the guilt or innocence of the parties, I cannot avoid observing that, considering the destina tion of the money, it is extraordinary that St. Arnaud should have taken it, while it is equal ly strange that such a grave charge should have been made without probable cause.” A PETITION TO TIME. BY HARRY CORNWALL. Touch us gently, Time ! Let us glide adown thy stream Gently—as we sometimes glide Through a quiet dream ! Humble voyagers are we— Husband, wife, and children three ; (One is lost—an angel fled To the azure overhead !) % Touch us gently, Time! We’ve not proud nor soaring wings , Our ambition, our content, Lies in simple things. Humble voyagers are we, O’er Life's dim, unsounded sea, Seeking only some calm clime ; Touch us gently, gentle Time. Landor and Kossuth. Old Walter Savage Landor has sent his new book to Kossuth, with the following lines : “W. S. Landor to L. Kossuth, with the new edition of Greek and Roman Conversations. “Souls such as yours, O, Kossuth! alight, close their wings, and rest upon the elevated crags of Antiquity. The sun shines there, when all beneath is lying in mist and shadow. “Morning is far off, but it returns in the course of nature : we feel its pungency before we feel its warmth. “Hungary is not dead ; no, nor sleepeth. ‘‘Receive my Greeks and Romans. Let them drive from your memory, if possible, the insults you late have suffered from wretches like those who betrayed the Bandi eri, when they might as easily, if not as ad vantageously to themselves, have prevented the rash enterprise of those two unfortuntae youths. Farewell.” Kossuth replies: “Receive my thanks tor your Greek and Ro man Conversations. The selfish, egotistical present world has still to learn from the an cients that the citizen has not only the duty of paying taxes,-but also a higher one toward his country—to maintain or restore its free dom. Yet, when men of genius and refine ment as you, Landor, connect the present with the past, our age listens to the warning of long forgotten centuries. “I have learned from the ancients to despise the insults of my foes. The warrior does not care if, in the heat of battle he is besmeared not only with gore, but also with mud. If those insults have reminded the sage —who lives with the heroes of all ages—of the hum ble but faithful soldier of Liberty, they have done more good than harm. Farewell and remember.” { A young stock broker having married a wid ow with Jj1, 000,000, says it wasn’t his wife’s face thnt attached him so much as the figure. INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PAINS.
