— ~nfc'' .__^.„. Sl)c Sn-lUcchln Constitutionalist. BY JAMP:S GARDNER, JR [Concluded from Fourth pa iff.] the friends of public virtue, equality and Consti tutional Government to confront the wily and unprincipled coalition. Resolved. That the Hon. Charles J. McDonald is precisely the man for the crisis—honest, firm and cool—sensible of what has been already lost, and of how much may' yet be saved. Resolved. That we hold the opinions ot our nominee respecting the Surrender to be en lightened and sound—his resolution to abide the solemn decision of the people of this State to take no redress for past wrongs, to be patriotic, and deferential to their sovereignty —and his views of the relative powers, as well as duties, of the State and Federal Governments to be of the old Republican School. Resolved, That we revere the Union formed by our fathers, as becomes the beneficiaries of their labors, and will, at all times, evince the sincerity of our attachment, both by a prompt and cheerful support to our several governments in the wise and impartial exercise of their just powers, and by an unceasing opposition to the assaults open or covest, which ambition, or treachery, or venality may make upon the beautifully adjusted system of checks and balances which their wisdom has devised for the better security of the Freedom, the Independence, and the Sovereignty achieved by their prowess for the people of each of these States. Resolved, That we regard the doctrine, which strips these States of every effective peaceful remedy tor any and every wrong that may be in flicted upon their citizens through the perversion or usurpation of powers, not only as Federal in fts character, and consolidating in its tendency, lut also as a libel on the memory of the heroes Ind sages of the revolution, imputing to them, as t does, a gross fraud in palming on the woild. under the semblance of free government, a cun- ! ningly devised scheme to entrap the unwary in the meshes of despotism virtualy reproaching ! them with a criminal omission of their duty to provide projier safeguards for liberty, to erect a harrier to the approaches of power, and to supply the weak and virtuous with suitable defences against the strong and vicious, virtualy reproach ing them with the stupendous folly of leaving tlie adjustment of differences between suffering minorities and unscrupulous majorities to the ar bitrament of the sword, the aggrieved to take all the hazards of rebellion, and to suffer the penal ties for treason, if more unsuccessful than them selves. when driven to a like resort to cut the knot which liound them in thralldom to Brittain. Resolved, That those patriots have not restored ns to the condition in which British oppression put them; but have left us to enjoy what their stout hearts and brawny arms acquired, and we see in the republican doctrines of State sovereign ty, resei veil and delegated powers, and constitu tional limitations, embodying the most peaceful sureties, neither an express or implied reflection on their intelligence, honesty, or patriotism. Resolved, That the principles contended for by Mr. Cobb, depriving us of all remedy for the op pressions which may lie laid on us, save such as may turn up in the fury and discord of civil war, despoiling us of long cherished constitutional guar anties and reserved rights, and throwing our in stitutions for maintenance upon the forbearance and tender mercy of their deadliest foe, are not only wicked, unsound and unwise, but if adopted by the people of the South, will prove suicidal. Risolvtd. That we highly appreciate the course pursued by the Hon. Joseph W. Jackson in the ! late Congress, and we will prove our confidence | in his firmness, integrity and faithfulness to his i trust, by the devotion of our best energies to his I re-election to the post of representative. Resolved, That we cannot speak in terms too I commendatory of the services of Senator Berrien I in the last struggle for our rights—and we trust | Ihe sell respect of Georgia secures her against the I machinations of the “Southern men with Nor m * l‘ el ' n principles' 5 about whom his ermine would I loosely hang as a giants robe on a dwarfish thief. On motion it was ■ Resolved, that a Committee of —be appointed I by the chair to address the voters of the county ol I Decatur, through the press, relative to the inter | osts of the Southern Rights party, and to prefer f the claims of the candidate lor Senate set before k the district by this Convention. The blank was filled with Jive —Dr. D. S. * Brandon, John G. Dekle, James McDaniel, S. Forest and James L. Seward were appointed said ■gcommittee. M Moved by John G. Dekle, Esq. I That the Secretary furnish the Georgian, Pa- Btriot and Constitutionalist and Republic with Bf copies of the proceedings of this Convention for Hpublication. Carried—nem con. On motion the Convention adjourned. JOHN C. BROWNING, Chairman. G. W. Brown, Secretary. Texas.—The Galveston News of the sth says: " There can be very little doubt that this year's crop ol Cotton will come to market earlier than usual. The dry season has caused it to mature and the bolls to open rapidly. Many of our plan ters commenced picking by the 20th of July, and some earlier.' 5 The Galveston Civilian of the Bth says:— “ Cotton picking is now pretty generally in pro gress in Texas, and the prospect for a good ave rage crop very fair.” The LaGrange Monument of the 6th says:— “ We noticed early in the summer that there was a fine prospect of a mast in some parts of Fayette county. We hear, however, that the protracted drought has blasted the young acorns. Pecans are still more susceptible of injury from this cause. As corn crops are short, a failure of a rnast would be seriously felt by our citizens.’ 5 Louisville, August 15.

While Sarsaparilla Root forms an important part of Its * combination, it is, at the same time, compounded with ■ other vegetable remedies of great power, and it is in the r peculiar combination and scientific manner of its prepa ration, that its remarkable success in the cure of disejMU* . depends. Other prejairations imitate it in the style of putting up. and bearing the name of one of its ingredi ents. and here ends their resemblance to it. Those needing a remedy and purifier like this, are requested to » uotc where this difference exists, and in making choice of what they will use, not to take any other but that one Y entitled to their confidence, from the long list of cures it has effected on living witnesses, whose testimonial© and residences have been published, and who are still bearing daily testimony to its worth . The whole histo ry of medicine has scarcely furnished a parallel to the numerous and remarkable cures effected by its use. and i what it has effected once it can effect again. FROM KENTUCKY. Inflammatory Rheumatism Gured. Bardstown, Ky., July 10, 1849. Messrs. Sands —Gentlemen: It is my duty to commu nicate facts in relation to the beneficial effects of your Sarsaparilla. My wife was afflicted with inflammation 3 and soreness of the stomach of the worst character; .her - limbs and chest were much swollen; she had constant headache, and last spring was attacked severely with in t flammatory rheumatism. The lest medical aid we could obtain afforded only momentary relief; and while in this situation, she heard of the many remarkabio cures ef fected by the use of Sands' Sarsaparilla, and commenced its use, which produced instant relief, and less than .»ix b bottles entirely removed all the dropsical swelling and j every other inflammatory symptou, restoring her per feet health. 1 send this statement as an let of justice, believing it to be my duty to encourage the suffering portion of the human family to use Sand’s Sarsaparilla which I believe has nojparallel in the catalogue of me dicine. With feelings of lasting gratitude, I remain your friend. SAMUEL P. HARGER. Read the following from New-Ori.eans, Nov 12,1849. i Messrs. Sands— Gentlemen: I take the liberty of 5 sending you a letter which may lie of importance to 1 those who are suffering as I have done. I received great benefit from your Sarsaparilla, having been cured of x malady after suffering six years. I hereby cheerfully certify to the good effect of your medicine, and I hop© God will reward you for all the good you have done. A b chronic congh had tormented ine day and night, and re peated attacks of fever induced me to believe that 1 should die with Consumption. One day,/ bile suffering a violent attack of burning fever, a friend wursuafledm* to try your incomparable medicine, but tot >ll the truth, I had no confidence in it. I finally purcha ied a bottle, and by its use and the help of God, I was restored to better health than I had enjoyed for six years. I can - not but bless the author of this admirable medicine 1 With great respect, I am. gentlemen. Your obedient servant. 5 VERMIN GROUPAZ. 4 * Truth is stranger than fiction.'' New Durham, NT. J.. June 30, 1849. Messrs. Sands —Gentlemen: My wife suffered with a distress and burning in her chest for many years, and my daughter was afflicted from her birth with a humor in her blood. We consulted various physicians, and tried numerous remedies, without much benefit, until we heard, through Rev. Thomas Davis, of the great me dicinal value of Sands' Sarsaparilla. On his recoin niendntion my wife and daughter decided on trying it and soon experienced permanent benefit. My daughter’ll skin assumed a new appearance entirely; from being rough, hard and scaly, it became smooth and soft. My wife’s sufferings are almost gone, and its use a short time longer, it is my firm belief, will produce a perfect cure. Yours, with respect, n .
