New York Mirror quotes as a
rich specimen of model poetry the follow,
ing lines, part of a copy of verses sug
gested to some aspiring gonitis by the
late military successes on the Uio Grande:
?lle*v attacked our men upon our land
* aucl' Crossed our river too Sir
Now show them all with sword in hand
what yunkee hoys can do sir
oh yankee doodle &-n.
haik hark the Cannon loud does Roar
on on the battle Rages
see not our men to pieces tore
And hy these vile savages
oh yankee doodle &c.
This is had enough, certainly, but it is
not worse poetry, and certainly not in
worse taste, than a poetic effusion copied
into the government paper of Saturday
niirht. and which will go abroad to all na
tion in which the United Slates has a di
plomatic represi n’alive, as a sample ot lhe
talent, to say nothing of the refined taste,
of our country. This effusion is copied
into the “ Unoin” from a New A ork
newspaper, in which it is introduced as
foil "vs:
‘Timing the groat meeting in the Park
on Wednesday the proceedings were en
livened hv singing the following song,
(which we republish.) hv an individual,
in the chorus ol' which nearly a thousand

THE QUESTION SETTLED.
A practical illustration of one of Mr.
Calhoun’s great principles was bcauti
fully developed yesterday morning, at the
corner of Third and Walnut streets, in a
short, yet we are happy to say, not san
guinary conflict between a wood cart and
a furniture wagon, the former driven hv

ents, a colored ‘gemman,’ the other hy a
genuine patlander.
Immediately upon tiie collision of the
two vehicles, ho of Erin incontinently
splintered (he tail-board over the head of
his grinning foe, which quickly aroused
that gentleman from his state of‘masterly
inactivity,’ and preparations were made
for a regular set-to, A gentleman in

occurred :

GENERAL SCOTT.
We have ourselves as often dipped in,
light!v, to General Scott’s “hasty plateof 1
soup,” as most people. We don’t know
that we are done with it vet. Viewing
his recent conduct in a more serious light,
we have no other feeling for its author,
than regret. We regret, tha' laurels long
won—and bravely won—which seemed
to be of undying ve r dure—should in one
short week, nay, in a little da}', by his own
act, wither and fall sapless from his brow.
Still, we are far from thinking that, what
trie Mexicans would call the pronuncia
miento of the country in his case, is wrong.
They offered him the rose: he chose to ;
grapple the thorns—the pain, therefore, |
which he has felt, or is yet to feel, is of |
self-infliction.
Notwithstanding this, we like that ge- |
i nerosityof mind, or strength of friendship, |
whichever it be, which rushes to the res
cue of the fallen, which defends, as be.st ■
it can be done, the one among the many. |
There is a magnanimity about such a
course w hich, however ill-directed, men !
i cannot forbear to applaud, while the judg- j
rnent may condemn, the impulse will ap
prove. These remarks were suggested
to us on reading, from the New York Cou
; rierand Enquirer, the following kindly
j conceived remarks in relation lo Gen.
j Scott:
“It is the nature of ridicule, to silence
the “still small voice of truth,” and the
I dictates of reason, and \ve have, therefore,
looked on in silence, while the shafts of ri
; dicule have been so mercilessly showered i
upon General Scott’s correspondence with
i the War Department. Ridicule is a war
fare with which reason and justice con
tend in vain; and while “a hasty plate of
I soup” and “Marshal Tureen” are phrases
upon the lips of all who are not the per
sonal friends of General Scott, it were
I . .
■ worse than idle to say aught in his defence.
“Time, however, has restored the public
! somewhat to their senses; and now we
may venture to inquire, whether very
i many honest and well disposed, but timid
j men, have not yielded to the ridicule
which has been thrown around an unfor
tunate plnase, far more than a sense of
justice, patriotism and self-respect, would
I seem to warrant?
! “What is General Scott’s position in,
what his services to, the country? and of
what crime has he been guilty, which
warrants even political friends who are
not ‘personally acquainted with him, join
ing in the cry of ridicule, which Ids poli
tical opponents have raised to hunt him
down? These ate questions which every
candid man should put to himself, before
yielding to what we are compelled to ad
mit, appears to he the prevailing feeling
of the hour. That a high-minded gallant
c* r
soldier, covered with honorable scars won
in his country’s service—that a man
whose name is identified, with the most
brilliant achievements in the military an
nals ot his country —the universally’ad
mired, and much lauded heroofChippewa
and Lundy’s Lane—a chivalric gentle
man, a warm-hearted friend, and accom
plished scholar—should be at once for
saken, abandoned, and held up to ridicule
and contempt by the very men and popu
lace, who one week ago, prided them
selves upon his military and civic achieve
ments, and boasted of bis political strength
and unequalled claims for the Presiden
! cy—that such a man should bo forsaken
j and made the subject of ridicule in conse
! quenceof giving vent, however ill timed,
to just complaints, and for the use of an
I ill-considered expression in an official let
ter, is sickening to those who would de
fend the right, and furnishes another me
“ _ 7
lancholy evidence of the ingratitude of
too many of our people.”
The Philadelphia Ledger, replying to ,
the above, and other articles of a like :
tenor from the same source—taking a
more stern and uncompromising view of
I the question—says:
“The Ingratitude of Republics. —One of I
our parlizan exchanges, which relied
upon General Scott for the next Presiden- I
cy, is zealously striving to save him from ;
the punishment justly due to his selfish
folly. It protests against the ridicule dis
charged upon “Marshal Tureen,” (a pun
upon the celebrated Turcnne.) for “a
hasty plate of soup;” says that he has i
committed no crime; that a British Gene
ral who had served his country’ so bril- i
liantly and faithfully as Scott has served
the United States, would not be thus pro
scribed; and that such conduct toward him
from “this ungrateful people,” is another
instance of proverbial ingratitude in re- j
publics.
“We should not have noticed this, ex- ;
copting to meet tiiis libel upon the people ;
of the United States, and this European,
or rather English cant about republican
ingratitude. We yield to none in just re- 1
spec! for the military services and charac
ter ol General Scott. But in our estima-
I lion, these services give him no right to 1
sacrifice his country to himself, to abandon
his military duties for partisan intrigues
for his political elevation. And because
a military commander has served his
country well, «e do not admit that grati
, tude demands any* toleration of his sub.
sequent follies or misdeeds. The grati
tude of nations should never exceed self
respect or public i..tcrest. Tolerating
present misconduct in consideration of
past services, surrenders all principle, all
right, all justice,all public consideration,
j to worship ot individuals, which is the ra
dical vice of monarchies.”
, The Ledger further goes on toarcjue,
that the people of the Union have not been
ungrateful to General Scott—that for
thirty years he has been a General officer
upon a high salary, and that for ton or
i more of those thirty years he has been
commander-in-chiefof the army—that for
his recent conduct, “in England, France
or Prussia, he would have been tried by
a court-martial and cashiered; in Austria,
he would have been tried by a court-mar
tial, cashiered, and imprisoned for life or
shot; in Russia, he would have been
tried by a drum-head court-martial and
shot, or banished to the mines of Siberia.”
And that it is treating him with undue
mercy to leave “him in his command and
his high salary and perquisites, and trap
pings and honors, and “hasty plate of
soup,” and allow him to play holiday
general for life at the public expense, with
no other punishment than a little ridicule,
; and permission to keep quiet in both war
. and politics.”

! THE CULINARY ART IN THE TEXAS
PRAIRIES.
The following graphic account of the
straits to which the Texan Rangers are
sometimes reduced for cooking materials,
addresses itself to “the charily that be
lie vet h to all things”—nevertheless many
things have had their day as sooth, which
are not quite as credible as this. There
is no compulsion intended upon the cred
it of anybody, though the story, all must
i admit, is easier of deglutition than the
I meal was when roasted.
Matamoros, June 13, 1813.
I Race nags may be found among the
I Texas Volunteers, yet the funiest fellow
■ of all is a happy-go-lucky chap named
Bill Dean, one of (Jhevallier’s spy com
pany, and said to be one of the best ‘se ven
up’ players in all Texas. While at Cor
pus Christi, a lot of us were sitting out in
1 ■ o
; the stoop of the* Kinney House, early one
morning, when along came Bill Dean.—
He did not know a single soul in the
1 crowd, although he knew we were all
hound for the Rio Grande; vet the fact
that the regular formalities of an intro
duction had not been gore through with,
did not prevent his stopping shoit in his
| walk and accosting ns. His speech, or
| harangue, or whatever it may he termed,
will lose much in the telling, yet 1 will
j endeavor to put it upon paper in as good
i shape as possible.
“Oil, yes," said lie, with a knowing
: leer of the eve, “oh, yes; all goto’ down
I among the robbers on the Rio Grande, are
! you? Fine times you'll have, over the left.
; I’ve been there, myself, and done what a
• good many of you won’t do—l comeback:
j but .I I did’nt see nateral h—ll—in Au
gust at that—J am a tea-pot. Lived
eight days on one poor hawk and three
blackberries—could’nl kill a prairie rat
on the whole roulo to save us from starva
tion. The ninth day come, and we struck
a small streak ofgood luck—a horse give
out and broke down, plumb out in the
centre of an open prairie—not a stick in
sight big enough to tickle a rattlesnake
with, let alone killing him. Just had time
to save the critter by shootln’ him, and
that was all, for in three minutes longer
he’d have died a natural death. It didn’t
; lake us long to butcher him, nor long to i
cut off some chunks of meat and stick’em
| on our ram-rods; but the cookin’ was an
other matter. 1 piled un a heap of prai- i
; rie grass, for it was high and dry, and sot
■ it on fuc; but it (lashed up like powder
and went out as quick. But ”
“But,"’ put in one of his hearers, “hut
how did you cook your horse meat after
that?”
I “How?”
how?”
“ Why\ the fire caught the high grass
close by, apd the wind carried the flames
streakin’ across the prairie. 1 followed
up the fire, holding my chunk of meat di- ■
redly over the hottest part of the blaze, j
I and the way we went it was a caution to i
; anything short of locomotive doins. Once |
in a tthile a little flurry of wind would j
come along, and the fire would get a few j
yards the start; but I'd brush upon her, I
lap her with my chunk, and then we’d
i have it again, nip and tuck. You never *
! seed such a tight race—it was beautiful.”
! “Very, we’ve no doubf,” ejaculated
one of the listeners, interrupting the mad
wag just in season to give him a little
breath: “but did vou cook vour meat in
j theend?”
I “Not bad I didn’t. I chased that d—d
fire a mile and a half, the almightiest
hardest race you ever heer'd tell on, and
; never gave it up until I run her right
; plumb into a wet marsh.* there the fire
i and chunk of horse meat came out even
—a dead heat, especially the meal.”
“But wasn’t it cooked?” put in another
of the listners.
“Cooked ! no!—just crusted over a lit
tle. You don’t cook broken-down hofse j
; flesh very easily, no how; but when it :
comes to chasing up a prairie fire with a
chunk of it, I don’t know which istonghest,
the meat or the job. You’d have laughed
to split yourself to have seen me in that
racp—to see the fire leave me at times,
and then to sr-e me a brushin’ up on her
again, humpin' ami movin’ mvst-lf as
though I was a runnin’agin some of those
big ten mile an hour Gildersleeves in the
! old Slates. But Tarn a goin* over to Jack
Haynes’s to get a cocktail and some
breakfast —I’ll see you all down among
the robbers on tHe Rio Grande.”
■ And so saying Bill Dean stalked off.—
f saw’ the chap this morning in front of a
Mexican fonda, trying to talk Spanish
with a Greaser and endeavoring to con
vince him that ho was a - ‘d—d robber.”
Such is one of Bill Dean’s stories—if
I could only make it as effective on paper
as ho did in the telling, it would draw a
laugh from those fond of the ludicrous.

VANITY, UR WOMEN’S AGES.
| FROM THE FRENCH OF MONTESQUIEU.
The other day I was at a party which
I diverted me much. Women of all ages
i were present; one of eighty years, one of
sixty, one of forty, who had a niece of
from twenty to twenty-two. A kind of
instinct led me to approach the latter;
and she said to mo in a low tone; —
“What do you think of my aunt, whp, at
her age, seeks for lovers and still plays
the agreeable?” “She is wrong,” said I,
“such a wish is becoming to you only.”
A moment after I found myself near her
aunt, who said to me, “What do you
think of that woman who is at least sixty
years old and has spent to-day more than
an hour at her toilet?” “It is lost time,
said 1, “one must have your charms to
think of such a thing.” I went to that
unfortunate woman of sixty and pitied
her deeply when she said:—“ls there
anything so ridiculous? See that woman
of eighty decked with colored ribands;
she wishes to appear young, and suc
| ceeds : for she looks like a child!” Alas?
j thought 1, shall w'e never see anything
ridiculous except in others? It is, per
haps, fortunate, that we can find consola
tion in the weakness of others. How.
ever, being in a mood for diversion, I
said to myself, we have ascended; now !
let us descend, beginning with the old
woman who is at the summit “Madam,
j you resemble so strongly that lady with
whom I have just spoken, that, it seems
to me, you must he sisters, and very near
ly of the same age.” “Truly, sir” she
replied, “when one dies, the other will
have great occasion for alarm; 1 do not
think there are two days between us.”—
i Leaving this decrepit old woman, I went
to the one of.sixty, “You must, madam,
! decide a wager which I have made; 1
I have bet that this lady and you, pointing
to the lady of forty, a re of the same age.”
!* “IndcflJ,” said site, I think there are not
six months difference.” So far so good
let us go on. Continuing my descent/
I came to the woman of forty. “Madam,
do me the favor to tell me whether it be
in jest that yon call this young lady who ‘
is at the other table your niece? You are
as young as she; there are marks of age j
in her countenance which you certainly j
have not; and the bright tint of your i
complexion”— **** “Indeed,” said she,
“I am her aunt; but her mother was at i
least twenty-five years older than I. 1
have heard my departed sister say that
her daughter and I were horn (he same
year.” “Certainly, then, Madam, 1 had
occasion for rny astonishment.”
My dear Usbek, women who are sen
sible of premature age, by the loss of
their charms, wish to revert to vouth.—
7 s
Ah ! why do they not try to deceive
i others? They exhaust all their efforts in
! attempting to deceive themselves, and rid
themselves of the saddest of all ideas.
Yankee Courage. —Lieut. Lincoln, who
| distinguished himself for his gallant con
duct in the action of the Resaca de la
Palma, is a descendant of Gen. Lincoln
and a son of ex-governor Lincoln of Mas
! sachusetts. He was ordered to charge
into the chaparral where the Mexican
| infantry were lodged, and were pouring
a most destructive fire upon our rnon as
they advanced along the load. Lincoln
charged upon the chaparral with the bayo
net at the head of his company. In the
! thickest of the fight he saw Lieut. Jordan,
I of another company, to whom he was much
attached, wounded upon the ground, and
, a Mexican standing over him with Ids
! musket raised in the act of stabbing Jor
dan with his bayonet. Lincoln sprang
: forward and the Mexican seeing him, his
1 bayonet was turned aside a little and
passed through Jordan’s arm instead of
Ids breast, at which the blow was aimed.
At the same instant Lincoln’s sword cleft
: the Mexican’s skull. Another Mexican
instantly made a pass with his bayonet
at Lincoln, but he jumped aside and, as
the Mexican passed forward, Lincoln’s
| sword was buried in his skull. Oilier ;
j Mexicans rushed in, and Lincoln and his
j sergeant despatched three more of them
jon the spot, in a fight hand to hand. Mr. |
Lincoln is a young officer of highly po.
1 lished manners, of a slender and rather
delicate form, but wish a brawny mus
cular hand and arm. He is a true chip of
the old block.— Delta.
A Literary Hair—dresser. —A hairar
iist in New York, in a card to his pat
rons, says;—Select conveniences for their
accommodation have been secured with
a view to retain the patronage which has
made him distinguished in his profession.
His foreign correspondence enables him
to adopt the latent style of the Parisian
1 mode in dressing the Hair, which is so
frequently mutilated by the hands of un
instructed empirics.— Delta.
The Spoils. —Sergeant McCab fought
with great bravery in the battles of the
Bth and 9th May. His constant desire,
however, was to get ahead of Ids men,
and it was with difficulty his officers
could restrain his movements. Towards
. the close of the last action his company
was ordered to charge upon the retreat
ing enemy. The sergeant’s valor could
be no longer restrained. He rushed
; forward and reached Arista’s camp as
the Mexicans were leaving it, and there
found Arista’s camp-ketiles all on the
fire, and the best of dinners with its
savory orders smoking before him. This
was too much for even the sergeant’s
valor. When his company overtook him
they found him quietly seated upon the
ground industriously engaged in discuss
ing a fine rice-pudding!— Della.

INDIAN SPUING I

'Phis Hotel, kept during the last season by Messrs. |
Dillon Collier, is now open for the reception of j
j boarders and visitors. The rooms and furniture i

| Invalids affected with diseases, curable by the
i use of MINERAL WATER, will find at the In

United States, its long established notoriety as a
place of resort for health in the Summer months,
and the celebrity of its medicinal qualities, with its
localitv, affording a healthy retreat, pleasant, pure
air, and fine scenery, has heretofore drawn to it
every season a large number of Visiters fur health
! and recreation. With the assurance of superior
| accommodations, a return of the patrons of this
i Hotel, with others in quest of a pleasant rettcat,
the enjoyment ot the amusements, and the society
j of a \v alering Place, are invited to give us a call
: at the Indian Spring. Besides the improvement in
I accommodations at the Hotel, arrangements for a
I pleasant test of the virtues of this Water, have
been made by the erection of new’ and superior
baths, with other conveniences heretofore neglect

I more agreeable and pleasant resort.
Daily four horse Coaches run from the Spring to
Forsyth, 16 miles, connecting with the Rail road
from Savannah to Atlanta.—The Spring is distant
28 miles f rom Covington, on the Georgia Rail-road
—from which place, comfortable conveyances can
at all times be obtained. It is expected also, that

BULLOCK’S
PROGRESSIVE J’OWERMTTON
f jjIHIS Machine is now offered to the public nn
JL the most durable, the most convenient , the
most powerful, (and all things considered,) tha
cheapest and best Cotton Packing Pres* in the
j World.
This Press has now been in use four years—ser-
I cral hundreds of them are in successful operation.
In one that has been in use about two years,
: there has been packed, over five thousand Bales of
! Cotton ! and it works better (if possible) now. than
w hen first put up. Not one dollar has been ex
pended on it in repairs—nor ever w ill be, if well
used.
All those persons who have tried them, have de
cided to keep them their life time, ami then hand
them down to their children to the third and fourth
generations. Not an individual that has seen them
in use but what pronounces them “Just the thing."
I challenge the world to disprove these state
ments. Now, can as much be said of any other
Machine ever made? And yet igo still further ;
when required, I will pm up the Press on the plan
tation, and if it does not answer the purpose, will
make no charge.
And again—being well aware that the planters
have but little confidence in new things, from the
j fact that nine out of ten are "Yankee tricks ,” in
tended to deceive, I have been to the trouble and
i expense to fit up an establishment in 31aoon, with
; several Presses, for re-packing Round Bales into
i Square, and to show to the planters that the Press is
just the thing they want. These Presses are note,
and will be kept in daily use, and open to inspec
tion. Now-, therefore, to induce the planter to
make an examination, I give below a certificate, m
signed by a few of the many who have very kindly
offered me their names, since 1 started my Presses
j in Macon.
To prevent bad work, and all sort of meddling
! or tampering with the Machines, I have them aU
I made under my own direction, end sold at one price,
| All those wishing to give them a trial, will please
; give their names to my Agents who call upon them,
or send them to the Commission House, where
i they wish to go for the Machine, in order that the
j Agent may be prepared for them, otherwise they
: may he delayed in getting a Machine when it is
wanted.

CERTIFICATE.
We. the undersigned, do hereby certify that we

| Power Presses in use in the City of Macon, and
1 believe them to be all they are recommended, and
I can say of them what can be said of but fern things
\ now-a-days—these are “no humbug .” We cheerful
j ly recommend them to the notice of the planters,
| and hope by their universal adoption, to see no
more round bales of Colton. Signed

COLLETON BmERS.
FOR DYSPEPTICS.
TP HESE TT ERS are purely a vegetable
fcl compound, and are offered to the pub
! lie from a principle of benevolence, under the full
j est conviction that they will be found a safe and
I sovereign remedy for Dyspepsia. They have been
j triumphantly tested not only by some of the most
I respectable families in the Slate, who have fnruiah
i ed ample testimony as to their decided excellence,
i but also by the proprietor, who, for ten ye.ars, suf
‘ lered all the gloom incident to that distressing dis
! ease. They possess the peculiar excellence denied
i to most other Ritters, of not proving injurious by
I continued use. They contain no) a single delete
! nuns ingredient, and, ns seen from the directions
which accompany each bottle, may he given with
j entire safety to an infhnt in the month.
if the Colleton is taken regularly and persever
! ingly, (which is highly important in stubborn cases,}
they wilP, soon alter the use of a few bottles, be
found to act on the system like a charm—imparting
vigor to the stomach, bracing the nerves, cleans
ing the liver, promoting digestion, increasing the
appetite,strengthening the chest ami voice, reliev
ing pains, cramps, and stitches in the breast. They
are also mostexcellent for cholera morbus, habitual
j constipation,sea-sickness,nansea, proceeding from
I whatever cause. Jn eases of general debility, it
has proved one of the best remedies, and is there
fore highly recommended to elderly people, literary
gentlemen, students, and others of sedentary habits.
Taken in small doses frequently through the day,
they have checked the most violent diarrhoea, and
i likewise been administered with the happiest effect
I in cholera infantum.
In all the foregoing complaints, these Bitters will
he, found effectual it persisted in, and taken accord
■ ing to the directions which accompany each bottle.
; Ami although it has been testified by several that
I they are excellent in many others, yet in none other
than those above enumerated, is the proprietor will
ing to vouch for tiieir efficacy. They were prima
rily and solely intended to cun; Dyspepsia.
The Colleton Bitters have been eight years be
fore the public; and in consequence of the increas
ing demand for this valuable rneoicine, the proprie
tor has entered largely into the business—bottles
are procured having “Colleton Bitters” moulded in
, them—they are aiso numbered, sealed and stamp
ed with an appropriate motto. Price per bottle.

Os the Colleton Bitters —"(purely a Vegetable
; Compound'’ and which, from the confidence 1 have
j in the character and integrity of the maker and pro
prietor thereof, 1 verily believe to be true,) 1 en
■ lertain ihe most favorable opinion. Several ofmy
personal friends and acquaintances, long afflicted
with Dyspepsia, have assured me that they have
. found these Bitters better than any other medicine
I they ever tried, for that distressing disease. And I
take the pleasure further to state that I have wit
nessed the excellency of these Bitters, in nansta,
pick-headache, and bowel complaint; in this la:I
particular, I have seen the Colleton repeatedly and
successfully tested among the children of my own
house hold. No family ought to be without thiain
vaiuable medicine.
