Fruni the i e i
Grant! Rally of the Masses.
Thursday the IGth iust, was a great day in '
Grinin. This day had been previously appoint
ed for the Friends of the Constitution and 01
Liberal Principle, to assemble together in couu
cil and deliberate upon and discuss matters
which concern the fate of the Republic, in the
presentcrisis in our public affairs. On Wednes
day evening, the p topic e mrnenced coming it,
to town from the neighboring counties. A
portion of the Pike delegation, having arrived
lit our vicinity, marched into the city, passed
through several of our public streets, amidst
the cheers of our poop'e, and halted in Hilt
street, where they were welcomed to our
hospitality by (to!. O. J. Green. in behali
of our citizens, in a brief and appropri
ate address; after which, they retired to their
camp, a mile from town, where they were joined
by other portions of the Pike and Upson Dele
gallons. It was truly a grand show, and pre
saged .ahat IV.is to occur on the succeeding day.
At night they were addressed at their camp
by Messrs, Smoot ami Spivy, of Upson,
and Col. Gibson, J. 11. Mangham and Judge
Green.
Ad Iresses were a’so delivered in the evening,
at th > stan I. in Messrs. Hili, Nall & Hay’s
Warehouse, by E. i). Tracey, of Bibb county.
L. F. MeUoy, of Russell county, Ala., and W.
11. F. Hall, of Pike comity. Ga. The speech
of Mr. Tracy, was chaste- pertinent and deliver
ed. IDs eulogiu u on Hon. A. 11. Stephens
was a master-piece of eloqiieuce. One senti
m.jut he uttered was a good speech, if nothing
m ire hi lb -en said. He rem irko.l, that the
Know Nothings had predicted that Mr. Ste
phens’ letter to Gul. Thomas would be “his po
litical win ling sheet,” but he believed it would
more probably be, “his ascension robe.” Mr.
'l', was followed by Mr. McCoy, who, with
much fervency and zeal, espoused our cause.—
He said that Mr. Tracy had proved that there
was no Democracy in Know Nothingism, and
lie would now show that there was no genuine
Whtggery in it either. Mr. McCoy is a mem
ber of the old Whig party of Alabama, and in
the last canvass in that State, did gaoif service
in the cause of liberal principles, taking the
stump, and manfully sustaining Winston and
Dowdell, and the of her carylidutes of the Anti-
Know Nothing Party of his county, all of
whom were triumphantly elected, though Rus
s 11 comity hail, hitherto, given about 300
Whig majority. He stands upon the same
ground Mr. Stephens, and bids lair to be an
honor and an ornament to his parly and coun
try. Col Hall made but a few remarks, as the
hour was growing late. His address was sen
sible, appropriate aud in every respect to the
point.
On Thursday morning the Banner of our Re
public, the glorious Stars and S ripes, was run
up to the top of a Liberty Pole, 80 feet above
ground, in front of our office. The morning
trains on the M. & W. Railroad, each brought
in respectable dclegati. ns from the eouuties
through which Road passes. About 9 o’clock,
the Pike and Upson delegations marched in,
consisting of a long train of carriages and other
vehicles, with banners flying und drums beating
ting This procession, consisting of hundreds,
was he.i led by that Venerable patriot, J amks
N kai,, who bears about him the scars of a hun
dred political battle fields, tn which he had of
ten b en victorious, and sometimes defeated, but
never conquered, and when overwhelmed by su
perior numbers and stricken down, always fell
with his face to the enemy. At half-past nine
the g.m n’hl proccstion was formed at the Geor
gia ll.del, under tue command of Maj. I’eter
M. Martin, of-Meriwether county, us Grand
Marshal, a sifted by Col. N. P. Daniel, of Pike
as Deputy, aud led by a line Band of Music,
from Macon, marched to Lie stand erected for
the speaking, in tire large und commodious

Gov. McDonald, on taking the Chair, made
a short address, highly appropriate to the occa

ent political issues, and a continuation of his
long tried devotion to the principles of the great
Republican family of statesmen. He conclud
ed by introducing to the vast assembly, the

the welkin tin ;. For two hours and a hall,
he enchained toe attention of t io largest audito
ry ever addressed before by any man in our
City. It would l>.- a vain cifirt, on our part, to
attempt to give even a skeleton sketch of this
effiirl, doubtless among the most powerful ol his
lift. He deliberately reviewed the history ol
the Northern Whig Party, their united opposi
tion to the Kirhsas and Nebruska bill, the heroic
devotion with wlucji a large portion of the Nor
tiierii Democrats, stood by him aud his South
ern compeers, wiiile buttling day und night for
the repeal of the Missouri Restriction, and the
pasiage olitiie Kansas and Nebraska Bill. He
painted in vivid colors tint horrid features ol
Know Nothingism, as exhibited in the Cornrti
tution ol the Nattotiul C uiteil, and the dan
gers to which the country would be expos
ed by the success of that party. He said
if the prieiples of Gm-dner, Wilson, ;uid other
Northern Know Nothing Abolitionists, were
the pr.ueipk-s of the Whig I’arty, then lie never
was a Whig. And who nt tlie South will dare
to say otherwise ? Never have we seen so much

For twenty of thirty minutes he had the audi-l

who equipped her two minor sons, and told
them -now go out and spread yourselves.” He i
called upon wives to say to their husbands, <
‘spread yourselves.” Mothers, say to your <
tons, “spread yourselves.” Sisters, say to your ,
brothers, “spread yourselves.” Daughters,* say i
to your fathers, “spread yourselves.” Young i
Ladies, say to your sweethearts, “spread your
selves.” And to all present, “go out and
ipread yourselves, till the day of the election.”
Everybody appeared to be politically happy,
jxcept a tew surly K. N.’s, and even they ■
could not wholly resist the exhilarating influence ;
jf Mr. Stephens’ concluding remarks. It was
regretted by many, that time would not admit
of speeches being made by other distinguished
gentlemen present. Col. Gartrell and Col.
Glenn, Col. Howard and Mr. Cowart, were
ill present, and the people were anxious to hear
them, but circumstances would not allow it.—
Late in the evening the meeting adjourned with
many cheers for our party and cause. A large
crowd being assembled at the Railroad Depot,
awaiting the arrival of the cars, Mr. Cowart
entertained them for half an hour, in vindica
ting himself against the slanderous charges of
the K. N. orators and presses, in reference to
his management of the legal interests of the
State Road. He clearly showed that his offi
cial duties had been faithfully performed, and
defied bis enemies, and the enemies of Gov.
J olinson, to prove the contrary. Thus closed
the public exercises of one of the most remark
able days iu the history of Griffin. As to the
number of persons oi>this occasion, it is diffi
cult even to approximate to a correct calcula
tion. We consulted with several in whose
judgments we had much confidence, and none
of them estimated the number at less than
FOUR THOUSAND, some as high as five or
six thousand. We feel safe in saying, there’
were between four aud five thousand persons in
attendance on the meeting, aud we have heard
of none, for whose opinions in this particular,
we have any respect, place the estimate lower
than four thousand. The g-r-e-a-t rally of the
Dark Lanterns, a few weeks ago, was in com
parison with this gathering of the people, but
a “drop in the bucket.” Good order prevail
ed among the people generally, and mnch en
thusiasm prevailed among the friends of our
glorious cause. This demonstration speaks
well for our prospects in the 3d and 4th Con
gressional Districts. A fire has been kindled at
this meeting, which will diffuse itself through
out all the neighboring counties, aud its influ
ence will be seen and ielt with power and effect
at the coming elections. The occasion was
graced and enlivened by the presence of hun
dreds of Georgia’s fair daughters, who by their
smiles of approbation, gave evidence indisputa
ble, that they are now, as they ever have been,
on the side-of their country aud its true defen
ders. We omitted to mention in the proper
place, that one of the beautiful banners, borne
by the Pike delegation, had inscribed upon it,
the names of
STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS,
For President—and
ALEXANDER II STEPHENS,
For Vice President.
A good ticket, around which all true friends
of the country, North und South, can safely
rally in the next Presidential election.'

Letter from Mark A. Cooper.
Etowah, Ga., Sept. 8,1855.
James Gardner, Esq.— Dear Sir: I have
; to-duy seen the editorial of the Chronicle ff
. Sentinel, of the sth iust.
, That Editor complains of the length of my
reply. Theic is a more serious objection than
’ that for him, to wit: It is a mass of facts which
he has not denied and cannot deny. Failing to
' do this, he enables me to dispose of what he has
said more briefly.
He complains that I have mystified his issues.
“None so blind as be who will not see.” He
has shifted his issues, until it is difficult for him
to tell realty what the point is. But he seems
willing, in this editorial, to come down to it,
aud sums it ail up; and being summed up, it is
this:
That “favoritism has been shown” me. Well,
I meet him on this, aud having the satifaction
to see that he given up the grave charge that 1
received the 4J6,00(1 alleged to have been paid
or promised by Governor Johnson, 1 now re
peat the reply heretofore made to this charge
liivoritism, and say again that it is uutrue and
false.
The matter now is in a nutshell between
us, and 1 will still show that this Editor is
grossly ignorant of tho facts, or wickedly per
verse.
First, "What are bis proofs of “favoritism”
addured—also to prove that “Mark A. Cooper
has, in tiis letter, deliberately and knowingly
miwepretirmtcd the facts as to tho freights be
' now pays?”
He says that ‘nobody ever pretended that
there was any reduction upon any articles but
‘ coal, iron, wheat and flour,' and he admits that
there was no redaction on anything else.—
Goods, waresand merchandise.'groceries and
&c. And lest this admission, thus
extorted from him, should prove that he has
falsely- charged in this matter of -favoritism,’
he tries to show that the amount I pay on ar
ticles not reduced on, is nothing compared to
iron, coal, Ac.
Well, what I pay on articles, such as goods
wares, aud merchandize, Ac., is nothing like
■ to the others, but it is just about, in mag- ■
nitude, equal to the freight on thirty thousand '
dollars worth ; and this the merchants iu our I
country considered worth talking about.
Now, it 1 Was dealt with usafav rite, would
it not be true that the overcharge should have 1
been taken off thwe also? I say it is; and
therefore this Editor is again condemned out ol
■ 'his own mouth.’
That what he calls reduction ou iron, coal,
wheat and flour, is no evidence of favoritism bv
this administration, is shown to any candid
mind in my former letters.
1 his Editor gives the rates of freight charges
according to the tariff the present administra
tion, between Atlanta and Etowah, Cartersville.
( ass Station aud Kingston, on pig and bar iron
and castings, flour, per barrel, sack and car load,
and says, they are all alike; that is, the charges
are the same to all these points. And this the
- work of this administration, that looks on me us
a favorite I
Indeed! make me pay the same from Allan
ta to Etowah, 43 miles—that is piid to King
ston, 58 miles, because lam a favorite? This
is the Editor's proof.
And these are rates paid, he says, before the !
i bargain. He then suvs, ‘the following are the:
J rates now paid by M. A. Cooper, from Etowah 1
!to Atlanta.” He then sets down the freights as j
j charged by Mr. Y onge’s tarili’ before the present '
administration came in, showing it to be twenty-1
five per cent, /ess than this administration
chargixl me, and says that these are the rates
since the bargain.
Here is his proof of favoritism, bv which
be hopes to palm off ou his readers a conviction
that I have deliberately and knowinglv misrep-:
resented this matter, and that favoritism is
shown me.
Did any one ever see or liear of the equal to
I this, coming from a man pretending to have
[ common sense 1 Here is an avowal of the faet
! by this Editor, that this administration has. bv 1
| its own act, advanced the charges on me tweti- {
I ty-five pei- cent above former rates, without a
■ corresponding ailcanceon others: that it has!
| admitted it to be unjust to me, and therefore *
, promised, before tt was gut into operation, that |
| these overcharges should not be exacted. That'
i notwithstanding these facts, this administration
; lias exacted these overcharges of me during its
i term of office up to within five months of its
i termination : and yet this Editor offers these
' facts to prove favoritism to me. and to estab-
I hsh what lu? calls the great issie of fxvoiht- ’
. ISM.
Who ever heard of such favoritism ’ From I
i all such may the country henceforth deliver me I ‘
I repudiate it I has robbed me of tav motiev ‘
unjustly qta’.d out. so mueh needed to relieve |
me of a loud of debt that presses hard on me. I,
W bat it could not take from me (my repnta- j
tion) this Editor and his coadjutors are striviim 1
to rob me of, with no advantage to them 1 ,
seivcs, save a tiw votes in favor of a very trood I.
man. unfortunately engaged in a verv bad i,
i*** • i'
The oppression of this falsely alleged favorit
ism I am bearing as a load that is bearing me
down, notwithstanding the half-way justice ren
dered, rather than do what I think a wrong, to
my country. The attempt to rob me of my
reputation, I have, as a matter of self-defence,
resisted, and will resist until the robber is ex
posed to public view.
According to this editor’s proofs of ‘favorit
ism,’ it does appear that a man may do me all
the injury possible, afflict me aud spare others.
destroy me and save others, aud still claim me as
a “favorite."
This editor illustrates his case by referring to
the charges on Mr. Denmead’s Flour from Ma
rietta, and puts it down at 20 cents per barrel,
15 cents by the car load, and eight cents per
bushel to Atlanta, and says “Denmead is not a
Democrat.”
He does not tell his readers that these are
precisely the charges made on Hr. Denmend
before Governor Johnson came in ; and that
this administration, in order to show how much
it loved me, as l a special act of favoritism, raised
the prices on me twenty-five per cent, whilst it
permitted Mr. Denmead to ship atformer rates.
He does not tell his readers that, after all the
alleged favoritism, 1 pay just five cents per bar
rel, on Flour, more than Mr. Denmead ; but he
docs tell them to see how much h igher Denmead
pays than M. A. Cooper.
This is a nice showing for a man of truth ; a
beautiful demonstration of editorial fairness,
with both freight lists before his eyes.
Again, he tries-to illustrate the “favoritism”
by comparing the freights from “Kingston to
Etowah, Cartersville, and Cass station.” Be
tween the first two. he has it four cents, the
second five cents, the third five cents, and be
tween Cass and Etowah, four cents for eight
miles. And, after all this, be does not tell you
that these are the very proofs of “favoritism."
This is the very “favoritism” shown by Gover
nor Cobb’s administration, and not by Governor
Johnson’s.
He doesnot tell either, that whilst I pay five
and four cents from these points to Etowah, 1
have habitually been charged five cents to Car
tersvivlle, only two and a half miles, to force
me to go there with mj wagons, and that this
shows to me “favoritism.”
No, it did not suit him. Nor did he tell his
readers that if the freight lists are compared,
there appeals five such cases of “favoritism"
against me, for one in my favor. And thus
that by eitlier freight list, owing to this classifi
cation sj’steni, yon may show this very “ favor
itism ” between almost all tho Depots,
No, he does not tell all this. He prefers-to
“mystify."
Be tries to show mo in error in regard to
the freights on “stone coal” from Atlanta to
Etowah and Kingston, and says betakes it from
the freight list. Well, so did" I; and if I am
wrong, Ido not understand the list. As to
freight on coal to Dalton, what I said in regard
to coal heretofore, is here applicable, and it
proves nothing, since that it was Governor
Cobb’s “favoritism," and not Governor John
son’s.
I have now replied in detail to every case he
puts. I will only effect his act of favoritism
by giving two cases in addition to all I have
given in former letters, to show that I am not a
“favorite." No, not one word of it. The
very reverse is true as regards this administra
t'on.
Ist. lam shipping Bran and mill offal to
Chat tanooga by the car load, and pay five cents
per bushel ou Bran. Kingston pays three cents
to Atlanta, and I pay three cents to Atlanta.
Who is the favorite in this case?
2d. I am shipping Flour to Chattancoga in
sacks, I pay thirty cents per sack. Denmead
pays eight cents io Atlanta. For two sacks,
equal to a barrel, 1 pay sixty cents for ninety
' miles on this Road. What can be made of
1 such favoritism as this? 'Phis sum will about
take a barrel from Atlanta to Charleston, three
hundred miles.
How very interesting to me is this favorit
ism !
1 repeat, sir, as true, an I all my neighbors
know it that this is the only administration
from which I have ever received- direct opposi
tion, and unequivol evidences of unfriendly feel
ings. I have been more imposed upon by it
than all others put together. So much for t_e
great issue, liivoritism.
A word more, once for al], about this “bar
gain”—so freely insinuated.
it is known that I have lived above such in
sinuations. lam out of politics aud intend to
keep out.
This editor delights to make this insinuation.
He is not content iu a fairway. as the Savan
nah Republican has. to discuss this matter, with
a view to truth and correct results. If so, 1
eould show him und every one that what Mr.
Vonge sui<i is true—that it is not only just to
millers, but the interests of the road and all
Georgia, to have all the Wheat now going t >
New York and Europe, milled in Cherokee
Georgia, and even at the “alleged reduced"
rules, the State would gam in freight receipts
from the present crops fifteen thousand dol
lars.
This does not suit this editor.
Well, for his benefit I now say, I have a v?rj
limited acquaintance with Governor Johnson—
never was in his company, that I know of, but
three times in my iife. The first time, if I re
member, was at Rome, when he first run for
Governor. The next was at Dalton Depot, and
the third at Gordon, as heretofore stated. I
met him on the cars since his last nomination,
j and after the freights were altered. I may have
met him a time or two publicly on the Board
of Trustees, and as often in the Executive
| Chamber. But three times only for private
| intercourse—and the public is advised by me
of all that occurred between us—nevertheless it
suits this editor to talk of a “bargain," and to
connect my name with it. Now, I say to the
editor, it is time to drop it.
He has again tried to show that the alleged
“reduction is esjxx-ially, and exclusively for
my benefit. I dispose of this by the subjoined
certificate, and
Remain respectfully vonrs,
MARK A. COOPER. !
Etowah Depot. Ga., Sept. 10, 1855.
At the request of Major Mark A. Cooper
I herewith give the following statement, to
wit:
The charges on wheat nnd and flour, coal and
iron, to and from this depot, are now chargeable
at the rates fixed by Messrs. Yongc and Wad
ley, prior to Ist August, 1854.
, All millers shipping wheat to this depot, to
j lie milled and shipped in flour, are chargeable at
I tlie same rate, that M. A. Cooper is. Lewis'
Mills. Field s Mills, and Foster’s Mills, are as
| near, if not nearer, to this depot, than any oth
| er depot, and are entitled to stop to and" from
I this point. •
If M. A. Cooper should ship to, or from this
depot, wheat or flour, tor other purposes than
milling, lie would be chargeable us other jieopk l
are. He is now chargeti 30 cents per bushel
on flour from this to Chattanooga, and a frac-
■ tion over 5 cents per bushel on bran by the car
j load to Chattanooga. From Kingston to At
lanta. flour per sack is 20 cents “and bran 3
cents.
The charges on iron at this depot arc the
same as under Messrs. Wadley and Yonge and
■ any one may ship to or from this place at the
j same rate that M. A. Cooper does.
i The like statement is true of stone coal ship
, ped regularly for manufacturing purposes.

The following is taken from the Louisville

mortal remembrance:
“Louisville, August 7, 1855.
“ George D. Printice, Esq— Dear Sir: I
have been requested and instructed by the la
dies of Bardstown, to present to you, in their
name, the urn, which the bearer of this note
will deliver to you, as a slight testimonial of their
appreciation of your distinguished services in be
half of the American party. They feel that the
country is much indebted "to you for your devo
tion in the great principles on which cur govern
ment and party are based, viz: The burning of
thechurches of the impudent Papists, the roasting
stewing and frying alive of the vile Dutch and
Irish woman and infants, so victoriously, tri
umpbantly and'gloriously achieved, in this city,
on last Monday night, by men whose souls were
inspired, and arms nerved at your patriotic in
stigation. This urn contains some of the trop
hies won by the “Amerlan party” on Monday,
viz: The hearts of Dutchmen, and the ashes
of Irishmen, the brains of anti-American infants,
and a portion of the burnt flesh of Quin, (broth
er of the deceased Propish priest) all of whom
were burnt alive on Monday night, for the safety
and perpetuity of Our national welfare. The
offering will be the more acceptable, we are
assured, when you are informed that the charred
and burnt particles.an! the brainas.of the in
fants herewith tendered, are the remains, the
identical remains, of the woman and infants
who so shamefully fired upon and killed the bra ve
men of the great American party, who died
f‘breathing lofty aspirations in the cause of lib
erty, the Union, and the national prosperity,"
Accept, sir, this holacust—these remains of wo
men and rascally Dutch and Irish suckling in
fants—as a testimonial of our devotion to the
protection of “American rights.”
“Samuel Blacksmith,”
The Queen, it is said, is troubled about
an affair of the heart, which has sprung np be
tween the princess royal and the young king of
Portugal, who is again upon a visit here. Not
that there is anything objectionable in the lat
ter, either in mind, morals or good looks, that
would render him an undesirable husband or
son-in-law, or in the throne he is to fill, which
is all an anxious mother could aspire after for
one of her four daughters—nor that the queen
would not gladly see the princess royal well
disposed of iu marriage—but that the young
king is a Roman Catholic, and is thus debar
red from allying himself by marriage with an
heiress, however distant, of the British crown.
Meanwhile the young king has fallen violently
in love with the fair girl of fifteen, who is not
insensible to his merits, and lets pass no occa
sion, either by presents, messages or tokens
when he is alisent, or by tender looks when
present, to manifest her sincere affection. They
are not, of course, suffered to meet, except in
the presence of others; but there aie numerous
occasions during the morning walks and rides,
or the steamer trips in the bay when tho lover
can manifest the sentiments of his heart to the
object of his pursuit. It is whispered that
among the numerous teachers employed to per

From the Constitutionalist.
A Word from Bishop Andrew.
“I regard the Church and her Ministers as dis
tinctly committed to the spiritual evangelization
of the world; and that IbeMin s’ers of Christ
should confine themselves to their proper spiritu
al Junctions, withont turning asideto takea part
in the poldicial and party strifes that are con
stantly arising to tempt them from their path.”
—(See letter. S. C. Advocate, Aug. 30tb.)
Do you not consider this as sound and whole
some advice Mr. Editor ? And emanating, too,
as it does, from a venerable Bishop, who hither
to has been looked upon as some authority, in
at least one branch of the Uhristaiu Church, it
would seem as if it should carry some weight
with it; but in these days when every one seems
so horrified at being dictated to by Popes and
Bishops, we presume that even these clerical
partizuns will kick at the harness; these rever
end politicians whom we have seen and heard
of during the whole of the present canvass; who.
having doffed tlieir priestly robes, aud laid aside
■‘the livery of heaven,” have been stumping and
spouting all over the State, hurrying from one
[xiliticnl gathering t > anotlier, rarely ever miss
ing a Barbecue; and then under the full convic
tion of treading on forbidden ground, out ‘hero
ding Herod’ in slang and abuse, advocating any
thing else but the precepts of the God they pre
tend to follow, and imitating anything else but
his example; stirring up strifes and enmities,
inflaming every human passion, and then, alter
having turned their backs on the pulpit and the
altar, to which, under oath, they had dedicated
tlieir lives, but which strict judgment proves
they are only used for convenience for ulterior de
signs, they offer themselves as candidates before
the people for political preferment! Oil, shame
were is thy blush? M ell may tlie Church,
showing the wounds in her hands, exclaim:
“These are the wounds I received in the house ol
my friends!" “Ye cannot serve God and Mam
mon." “Whosoever, therefore, will be a friend
of the World, is the enemy of God." Ye are the
dupes of designing men. Vebitas.
Re-election of Gen. Atchison to
tlie United States Senate.
We re-echo tlie rejoicings of the Missouri
Examiner, at the re-election of Gen. Atchison
to the United States Senate. The Legislature
having re-assembled after its adjournment from
last winter, proceeded on the 29th August, to
ballot fora United States Senator to succeed
Hon. David Atchison, whose term of office ex
pired 3d of March last. The 3d and 4th bal
j lots were as follows :
3d. 4th.
: David R. Atchison 24 28
Thomas H. Benton 13 10
Samuel H. Woodson 11 9
M. M. Marmaduke 3
Whereupon. Atchison was declared duly elect
ed as U.S. Senator for six years from the 4th
of March last.
The Examiner thus exults:
“ Ei.kction of Gen. Atchison.—We send
I forth greeting to Abolitiondom the news that
I their great foe. the Hon. D. R. Atchison, the
able and uncompromising champion of anti
| Benton Democracy aud State Rights, is re-elect
! <d to that high place which he so long and so
honorably filled, and which the foes of Southern
institutions L had hopeil he would never again
occupy—the U. S. .Senate. Tlie Hon. D. R.
Atchison, by the hilly expressed will of the
people, aud ‘after one of the hardest contests
that ever characterizedottr legislature, has been
restored to tlie councils of the nation. Tlie can
didates were Gen. Atchison. Thomas H. Benton I
and Hon. S. H. Woodson. After three most
exciting sessions, in which the claims of each
candidate were most stoutly maintained by his
respective friends, the anti-Bentonsearried’their
champion triumphantly through. The election |
took place at the Wednesday night session of l
the Legislature. The session was an nnusuallv ‘
exciting one. every artifice was resorted to by ■
our opponents to defeat an election: but after 1
being prolonged till between twelve and one. 1
o’clock, the indomitable friends ot’ the South ’
brought on the final ballot, which resulted in ■
the re-eleetion of their candidate. Rentonism
is buried in the tomb of the Capulets, Aboli
tionism throughout the Union abasiied. and
another upholder of the Constitution secured to
the service of the nation.”
The Columbia Tt’mcsoflhe sth inst.says: “A '

Hon. Wm. Miles, one of the old and ab’c I

ship between the Whiggery he preached on the i
stump m former campamgs and Know Nothing-:
ism, and therefore he opposes the latter. Thou-'
sands of “old line Whigs” in the State will be ■
found acting with him. Indeed in Southwestern
Mississippi tlie Whigs denounce the new move
ment as a “democratic trick” to destroy the
Whig party!
The editor of the Richmond Dispatch recently
was one of an exenrsion party to the present
terminus of the Virginia and Tennessee Rail
Road, fifteen miless beyond Wytheville, and on

of the remaining fifty miles is nearly completed.
The cars will not run beyond Wytheville, ex
cept for purposes of construction, until the track
reaches the Holeston Valley, about thirty miles
beyond Wytheville.
Tlie North British Mail says: “We have seen
a letter from Melbourne, dated the 10th of May,
per the Geo. Marshall, to a respectable firm in
towu, wherein it is stated that a rumor was then
prevalent tn Melbourne that a piece of solid
gold weighing ten tons bad been found in the
Tarrangower diggings. If this turns out to be
true, it will have an important and beneficial
effect upon tlie trade of the colony.”
Thisjis about equal to the discovery said to
have been made in California several weeks ago,
were an immense rock was found “literally lousy
with gold.”
' Mr. W. Mcßae’s invention for preventing ac

purpose intended, it will prove a valuable safe

SUBSCRIPTION ONLY
One Bollar per annum.
The Wbekly Examixlh will after thefirat daj

low price of ONE DOLLAR per annum, paya
able invariably in advance.
Many reasons have induced the proprietor ol
this paper to embark in an enterprise never be
fore attempted in the South, and which bae
proved, not only successful in the Anti-Slavery
States North and West, but has received a pat
ronage in the Slave States, that had better be con
fined though at greater expense, to the South
ern Press.
To obviate, then, the objection, as far as we
can, to the price of the Weekly Examiner, wc
'rom and after the period designated will forwaid
•t to subscribers at one dollar, per annum, and
this will place it within the reach of the poor, as
well as the rich.
To politic*, news, and literature, the Examiner
will be devoted. < >urposition in regard to the
first is already- well understood. It is unnecessa
ry, therefore, to say more than that it sustains
and will sustain, the DEMOCRATIC ANTI
KNOW NOTHING PARTY of Georgia and
the Union, to which the South can look, with
confidence, to the maintenance of her rights, and
a strict adherence to the Constitution.
The NEWS DEPARTMENT of this paper
shall Le unsurpassed by any weekly paper in the
South Atlanta occupies a position, and embra

will also receive a large share of attent on.
During the session of our Legislature, one of
the Editors will be present to report the proceed
ings of that Body, foi the Daily Examiner—these
reports will be transferred to the weekly and each
subscriber to it, will thus have a complete history
of the session.
A correspondent to furnish the proceedings of |
Ccngrt ss, and a New Y’ork correspondent, have '
■ also been engaged. In short, every thing that'
can reasonably be expected of a weekly paper, ■
will be laid before the subscribers to the Exam

A large and fine assortment of new type has
been ordered, and ia now on its way from New

will be added to both.
In adventuringupon this novi enterprise—one j

CONSUMPTION
SUCCESSFULLY TREATED BY
Inhalation ot Medical Vapors!
JOHNSON STEWART ROSE, M. D.,
of the Royal College ct Physi
1* cians, and for years Senior Physicians in
the London Royal Infirmary for Dtsearea of tho
Lungs.
In this age of progress, medical science lias
contributed her full share to the general welfare,
and that which shines resplendent, the brightest
jewel in her diadem, is her last and greatest gift,
Medicated Vapor Inhalation,
In the treatment ot Consumption and kindred
affections. The most absurd notions, narrow
minded prejudice contemptiide ignorance, and
unblushing quackery, have long existed in- the
treatment of Consumption. Men of skill and re
putation as physicians have prescribed nauseous
comp mnds to be taken into the stomach, to cure
disease of the lungs, while the brazen face J quack
held up bis nostrum as the only star oi hope for
the consumptive—if only enough of it wereswal-
Ijwed. The stomach, where disease exists,
being the receptacle of all this, is soon rendered
unfit to perform its functions, and the health thus
materially injured. All must see the absurdity,
the positive injury of such a course; the diwase
is in the lungs, not in the stomach; then why, in
the name of common sense, do you not apply
medicine directly to the lungs! The advantage
of Inhalation in Consumption and Throat Dis
eases is, t iat medicines in the form of vapor are
applied directly to the lungs where the disease
exists; the stomach is thus left free to aid in re
storing health, by administering it to healthy,
life living food. There is no case so hopeless
that Inhalation will not reach! The means, too,
are brought within the reach of all, the manner
of administering the Vapors being so simple, that
the invalid is never required to leave home,
where the baud of friendship and affection
tends so much to aid the physician’s efforts.
The Inhalating method is soothing, safe and
speedy, aud co Bists in the administration of
medicines in such a manner that tney arc con
veyed into the lungs in the form of vapor, and
produce their action at the seat of the disease.—
Its practical success is destined to revolutionize
the opinions of the medic .1 world, and establish
the entire curability of Consumption.
I earnestly appeal to the common sejse of all
afflicted with lung diseases, to embrace at once
the advantages of Inhalation, and no longer ap
ply medicine to the unoffending stomach. I
claim for inhalation a place amongst the priccles
gifts that nature and art hath given us, that “our
days may be long iu the land,” and and as the
only
Ark of Refuge fsr the Consumptive.
A method not only rational, but simple, safe and
efficious.
To many of my professional brethren through
out the Union I tender my acknowledgements
for tlwir frank and manly course in testifying to
the merits of Inhalation. I shall be pleased to
co-operate with them in offering to the afflicted
the blessings of medicated- vapor inhaliation in
the treatment of Consumption.
One word for myself, in ar. *•: to those
claiming to have introduced the ptact. , •'<! to
the tribeof imitators who, with brazen ir I . rce
claim it as their own. I both wrote in rof
Inhalation and practiced it 1£ “'•■■’ The
apparatus then used, with the , ‘ rents
employed,achieved only a partial suee<ss; I there
fore did not claim for it then those miraculous
powers which a long practice has since enabled
me to give to it. Proof of this may be found in
my work published in 1840.
Applicants will please state if they have ever
bled from tho lungs, if they have lost flesh,
have a cough, night sweats and fever turns,
what and how much they expectorate, what the
condition of their stomach and bowels. The ne
cessary medicines, apparatus, &c., will be for
warded to any part.
Terms:—Five dollars consultation fee. Balance
of fee payable when patients report themselves
on a lecerit.
Recommedation Physici ns
XV e the undersigned practitioners in medicine
cheerfully and heartily recommend Dr. Rose's
method ol treating disease of the Lungs and
Throat, as the best and most effectual euer in
troduced in the medical practice. Our convic
tions are based upou having several of our own
patients, confirmed consumptive*, restored to
vigorous health, altera few months treatment by
Dr. Rose. In the above named diseases the
application of medicated vapors, inhaled directly
into the Lungs, may bejustly considered a great
boon to suffering humanity, rendering Con
sumption a per ectly curable disease.
Dr. Rose deserves well of the profession for
his unwearied labors in bringing the Inhalating
method to such a degree of perfection.
