We pause for a reply.— Advocate of the South. Maine Election. New York, Sept. 11.. Pilty-aix towns in Maine give a majority of 2,000 for A. S. Morrill, the Republican or Abolition candidate for Governor. PoR+LAND, Sept. 11. One hundred and fifty-six towns give Morrill Repubs heat), 20.000 votes, Wells, Democrat and Maine Law ad vocate, 20,000, and Reed, Whig, 6,000. The majority in the Legislature, however, will probably be Anti-Re publican. The President and the Norfolk Sufferers.—The ■“National Intelligencer” expresses itself satisfied that the President could not have sanctioned the scheme to remove the inhab tants of Norfolk and Portsmouth to the Gov ernment buildings at Old Point, without violating obliga tions to others. Potatoes. —The Louisville Democrat, of Friday last says: “On Monday, Mr. Murphy contracted for 5,000 barrels of potatoes for a heavyi New Orleans house at $1.25 cents per barrel.” Liberal Gifts.— Thomas P.

Up to the present time, about twenty five new students have been ;md the old stu u dents have generally returned.— Christian Index. Death of an old Citizen. —Mr. Justus Wyman, an old and well known citizen of Montgomery, Ala. was buried m our Cemetery yesterday, with military honors lie having been an honorary member of the “Blues.” * [Mont. Advertiser , 11 th. Rev, T. H. I< aster.- - We chronicle with deep regret HhQ death of Rev. Thomas H. Foster. Ho died of yellow lever at Baton Rouge, after a short and severe attack.— Krom Ins entry upon the Ministry till last winter he was ‘connected with the /llabarna Conference. In December last, lie was transferred to tho Louisiana Conferance, and stationed at Baton Rouge. Ex-Parson C. C. Burr, formerly an abolition lecturer then a temperance lecturer, subsequently the editor of the ork city National (Hard) Democrat-turns up in tthe New i ork Know Nothing State Convention at (Binghamton. He had not previously been heard of in (politics for a whole year, a remarkable circumstance when one takes into consideration the fact that he is the great est gits pipe at present known to the politics oftbeccuu. try- Massachusetts Politics,- The Boston Courier says they intend to have “a straight Whig ticket” in the field 111 Massachusetts at the coming election. It matters little says the Courier, whether the Whigs be in the majority “ the minority, they intend to bid defiance to all fusions •and try their strength at tho polls in November. They call to their aid the “clean men of all parties, who wish to have good laws, a conservative government; and acts of legislation which shall be obeyed and respected by the people.” kx-Gov. Washburn is spoken of as their can didate for Governor. A House Divided against Itself.— Know Nothing ism is evidently in a terrible stew and is acting upon the si-11-preservative idea of every man for himself and the I )evil take the hindmost. Thus in Louisiana, the State •Council repudiate tho religious Ust and run Mr. Derbfo ny a member of the Roman Catholic Church as its can didate for Governor, while in Georgia, denunciation of that church is the staple of nearly all tho Know speeches. In Massachusetts and Indiana they are for admitting naturalized foreigners iuto the Order, and iu Soinh Carolina they throw over board the Supreme Court and the Unionism of ihe Philadelphia platform, in the xain effort to make it a State Rights concern, in defiance •ol the scriptural adage, which announces the impossibility of changing the Ethiopians’ skin. In Muscogee county, Ga , they profess to have thrown off the secrecy, aban doned the ritual and come out openly as an American ■party. I hus each distinctive feature of the Order anti lorcignism, anti-Catholicism, unionism, and secrecy meets hitter opposition in its own ranks. If each of these divisions could have its way, their warfare would be more destructive than that of the Kilkenny cats, for there would not be so much as a tail left. Even the dim light o the dark lantern would be extinguished.— Eufauia Ala Spirit of the South. ~ Know Nothing Statistics.—Mr. Hawkins the Know Nothing candidate for Congress in the 2d District of Georgia, lately announced in a speech that ihe Catholics had put to death, sixty-nine millions of Protestants ! U pon being asked for his authority, lie said that he had *een the statement somewhere, (it must have been in the adventures of Baron Munchausen, or some kindred woi k,) and in answer to the inquiry, as to whether he believed it, he replied, “ye *, by G--d, Ido.” Mr. Ilill, another candidate of the same party for Con gress in the 4th District, asserted in a speech that the people of this country paid an annual tax of four hundred millions of dollars to support foreign paupers ! If iono ranee is bliss, what happy fellows ‘these gentlemen must be,— Eufauia,{Ala.] Spirit of the South.

RO JKMORE J The Great Restorative, FKVKR AND AKH'E Cl RED BY DR, m’LANk’s LIVKR PILL?. &F* Mr. Jonathan Hougham, of West Union, Park Cos Illinois, writes to the proprietors that he had suffered great ly from a severe and protracted attack of Fever and Ague and was completely restored to health by the use of Liver rills alone. These Pills unquestionably possess oreat ton ic propel lies, and can be taken with advantage for many diseases requiring invigorating remedies; but the Liver Pills stand pre-eminent as a means of restoring a disorganized Liver to a healthy action; hence the great celebrity they have attained. The numerous formidable diseases arising from a diseased Liver, which so long oaffled the skill of the most eminent physicians of the United Stales, are now rendered easy of cure, thanks to the study and persever-’ ot the distinguished physician whose name this great med icine bears—a name which will descend to posterity as one deserving of gratitude. This* invaluable medicine should always be kept within reach; and on the appearance of toe earliest symptoms ot diseased Liver, it can be safely arid usetully administered. Purchasers will please be careful to ask for Du. M’Lane’s Celebrated Liver Pills, and take none else. There are other PilJs, purporting to be Liver Pills, now before the Public. Dr. M’Lane’s Liver Pills, abo his Celebrated Ver imtuge, can now behad at all iespectable Drug Stores in the United States and Canada. by all the Druggists in Columbus, and by one agent in every town septl—w&tw2\v.

Its singularly efficacious action oil the blood; its strengthen ing and vivifying qualities; its tonic action on the Liver; its tendency to drive all humors to the surlace, thereby cleans ing the system according to Nature’s own* proscription; its harmless, and at the same time extraordinary good effects, and the number of cures testified to by many of the most respectable citizens oi Richmond, Va. and elsgwhere,must be conclusive evidence that there is no humbug about it.
