THE TRUE SOUTHERN POLICY.
The true policy of the South is so plain that
we wonder it is not uniformly and continually
urged by all our Southern presses and public
speakers.
Calmness is the first great element of the
success which wo can and will attain ; a reso
lute composure—especially in an hour like the
present, when we ought to feel mortified to
think that a handful of ruffians, by periling
their lives, have succeeded in making so much
agitation on the,surface of thclpolitical waters.
be palm; \ut detekmined.
me shoulii-LiuK,waste wbfds/ftor indulge irf
excited imaginations, nor in wholesale and
wrongly directed vituperations,—since the
masses of the North are really with and for
us, and for our rights under’ the Constitution.
TVe should not vilify our true brothers. We
should do thenp simple justice. Those of us
who have mingled much among the masses of
the North, well know that they laugh and
sneer at the frothy ravings of sneaking
abolitionists quite as much as we do.
But while we allow this, let us act, and with
the bold arm of summary vengeance. In the
retaliatory spirit of Spartacus, we should deal
the quick death upon all who are proved to be
engaged in the cruel plots of disaffection or
insurrection in our midst. Summary action is
better logic for our cause than tongue-fighting
with the old women of the North. “ They
will be talking,” and can beat us in that, liow
over piratical their arguments and spirit. A
short shrift and a high tree sos every mousing
prowler among our slaves. This will rid us of
these worse than “ rats of Egypt.” But let us,
the wliile, keep cool. Mercy’s self cannot
plead for men like Brown and the others who
have gone to their doom. They made her
blush and writhe, at Harper’s Ferry, if the
testimony of Governor Willard, of Indiana, is
to count, in the story of their fruitless efforts
and their fate. We copy from the Louisville
Journal, en passant, the following illustration of
the unnatural hardness, the icy lack of human
sympathy in Old Brown’s composition. Pirates
are brave and self-possessed (possessed of the
devil!); but for these should they not swing ?
“ According to Mr. W.’s statement, Old
Brown, during the investment of the armory
and the attacks upon it by the troops, was the
busiest and most vigilant of all the rebels, in
watching through the loop-holes and crevices
for opportunities to kill those outside. Whilst
he was thus watching, rifle in hand, one of his
own sons was shot through the body, and fell
within four or five feet of him. The young
man groaned aud cried aloud in his agony,
begging that some of bis comrades would kill
Brown, tm-nitU ,
Tor iv lew moments an imlnoved and symph~
tk.—gv glance upon his expiring son, sternly
bade him be-silent and die like a man, and
then turned his attention back to his own work
of killing. Avery short time afterwards, his
other son was shot down almost exactly like
the first, and, with loud moans, called upon a
comrade for a revolver that he might kill him
self. Aud old Brown, turning upon him as he
had turned upon the brother, rebuked him for
his noise without a word or look of sympathy
or regret, and straightway betook himself
again to the business of murder. And all the
while standing with his two dying children
behind him, and holding his rifle pointed in
front, ho was drumming at intervals upon the
barrel of his weapon of death with the fingers
of his left hand, as calmly and with as much
apparent unconcern as if he had been engaged
in some amusement.
There can be no doubt of Old Brown’s cool
ness and untamable courage ; but such quali
ties cannot compensate for the absence of the
ordinarj’ sensibilities of human nature. It is
not enough that he can look upon his own
death as immovably as lie could contemplate
the death and hear the death-groans of his
children.”
But enough of him. He has taken his place
among the other out-laws in history, and let
him rest on the couch he has chosen. Our
purpose is to show that a great feature of the
true policy of the South is to devote half our
efforts to the building up of the Manufactures,
the Commerce, and the Literature of the South,
that we may, in all respects, be what we are
able to be, and assume to be, “ sovereign and
independent States.” Let “ Manufactures ”
and “ Commerce ” be the watchwords, not of a
Southern “ Confederacy,” but of the SOUTn as
she is, the same in heart and position as she
always was, but aiming to he able to live
truly independent, without external aid ; each
fair fed.„happy State sustained by the strong
arms of her own gallant children alone.
We have the brains and enterprise to do it
fellow-citizens! when once aroused. Our,
energies, and endurance, and enthusiasm are
of no boyish character, and have been suffi
ciently proved on the battle-fields of our
t ke earliest Ao latest times..
Let this recollection inspire ns, brothers!
Yet let us never seek to depart from the hal
lowed footprints of wur fathers. Our com
posed but resolute action, mindless of the
howls of a few maniacs of the North, will set
matters right in good time. Southern halters
will prove more than a match for Northern
fire-brands.
Yes! forever let U3 be guided by the coun
sels of our fathers, and true to their principles :
true to the Constitution and the Union. Let
the holy Genius of each Southern State at least
be faithful to these ! —O, faithful as we are to all
we love best, —our honor, our wives, our sons
and daughters and our friends! And in the
lapse of ages, if the fiat of destiny shall be
that we, sharing the doom of other empires,
shall he swept away, the guardian Genius of
each faithful State, still lingering mournfully
over the scenes of its former glory, will be able
to recall our spotless fidelity with a smile, if
melancholy, satisfied; and “ look proudly to
Heaven, from the death-bed of Fame.”
“ NOTES AND QUERIES.”
Editors are queer—very and decidedly queer
sometimes. Some people call them semi
human. Os course there are exceptions —
some red-letter saints among the hosts of black
sinnerß. They are, we well know, frequently
guilty of the most scandalous abominations.
For instance, one of our exchanges positively
asserts that a “ Repentant Daughter cannot be
admitted He must be a hard-hearted brute
of a fellow indeed. Another positively de
clines “ Hie Virgin Kiss.” He ought to he
sent straight to Botany Bay for the rest of his
natural life. Still another has thrown ” The
Good Time Coming ” out of the window. He’s
a decided wretch. A Western editor comes
out frankly and says that “ A Basket of Bruit “
sliall go in next week. We like that. He’s a
good man, and an honor to the profession.
M e trust the fruit will keep in the meantime.
A down-east editor will have nothing to do
with “ A Dying Sister.” What a heartless
brute. Fortunately capital punishment is not
yet abolished in that State. A Northern
exchange “ can have nothing to do ” with a
“ Maiden's Embrace.” He must he a perfect
monster. We suppress the names of both
paper and editor. A New Hampshire paper
declines “ Sunlight.” He is no doubt afraid to
have his deeds known. Mrs. Swisshelm re
fuses “ The Prayer of the Bachelor.” That’s
perfectly right. Bachelors are never sincere,
either in prayers or anything else. Besides,
what right has a bach to he praying to a mar
ried woman ? A suburban paper calls “ The
Bible ” poor trash. An infidel truly. What a
contrast to that is a city cotemporary, who
gladly accepts “ A Lady's First Born.” He’s
the humane editor.
So on and so forth. Altogether, shell and
meat, editors are queer people. Young ladies,
look out you form no perpetual Alliances with
them. -U - • 4— v
WHAT THEY SAY OF US.‘
Since we commenced the publication of the
Republic we have received many courteous
and encouraging notices from our editorial
brethren, for all of which we feel duly grate
ful. We cannot withstand the temptation to
copy the following “fiist-rate notice” which
we find in that truly excellent journal, the
Marshall County (Ala.) News. Give us your
right <B©°*, Brother Porter:
The American Republic. Russell, Berney &
Cos., Publishers; J. Frank. Lakin, Editor.
Macon, Geo.
We have been kindly favored with a num
ber of this new paper, and, in style of editor
ship and mechanical execution, is is so high
above most caterers for public approval, that
we feel bound to notice it specially. It is in
deed a beautiful family paper, and in typogra
phy will compare most favorably with the best
Northern publications. Why do not Southern
people sustain Southern enterprise ? Years
ago, when the bitter pill of Abolition was be
ing forced upon us; when anxious patriots
were looking for the remedy in politics, we
told the South that the spirit of reaction lay in
a simple truth: Deal at home — encourage home
literature, home everything. We know that
there are noble hearts in the North t! at beat
in unison with ours—for the-Republic uul for
peace. But others will not be wise mtil we
speak through tlieir pockets. Let us do so.
LOVING HOMES.
Nothing appears to us so beautiful in human
experience, as the reciprocal affection of
parents and children, especially after the latter
have attained maturity, and, it may be, form
new relations in life. We have seen the loving
and lovely daughter, after she had become a
wife and mother, seize every opportunity ol
visiting the parental home, to lavish-graceful
and tender kindnesses, assure them that though
she was an idolized wife and a happy mother,;
her heart still clung with every strengthening
fervor to the father and mother, who watched
over her infancy and guided her youth. It has 1
been our privilege to knowjucli; and as wefl
wariuiig vq, aiftlhcmfiij
ness between these devoted and giowingM
hearts, wo have felt that surely much oi
heaven might be enjoyed here if all the fami- >
lies were equally attached. And would that’
every daughter knew what pure joy she might
create in the parental bosom by a constant
keeping alive of the spirit of filial devotion,
and seizing frequent opportunities to make it
manifest in little acts of gentleness and love,
notwithstanding the child may have become a
parent. The child never grows old to a fond
parent. It is always the dear child, and never
so dear as when it keeps up the childish con
fidence and love of its earliest years.
*
DEATH OF WASHINGTON IRVING.
The recent decease, at an advanced age, of
the most elegant prose writer of whom Ame
rica could ever boast, fills the whole country
with mournful eulogies upon his name. His
soul was as musical as that name, and his
face as beautiful as the nature which glows
and beams through all his contributions to
American literature. We append, from the
N. Y. Commercial, a sketch of his illustrious
and lustrous life. In common with all who
are, or aspire to be reckoned among the chil
dren of literature, we feel a melancholy, and a
sense of humility in contemplating this new
proof that goodness and greatness must yield,
on earth, to death at last.
“ Scepter and crown
Must tumble down,
And in the dust be equal made
AVith the poor crooked scythe and spade
Mr. Irving was one of the galaxy of genius
which often surroundetf the festal tables where
glorious Tom Moore was one. Irving’s per
sonal beauty was universally remarked. In
whatever European land he traveled, he spoke
the language so fluently as to be mistaken for
a native. His style was so felicitous, in pathos,
wit and genuine humor, that when Dickens
visited America, liis first words on landing
were—“ Where does Irving live ?” He has
gone to his rewaui on hijjjt\, and has left ai
civilized world “fo'mfTffm, to foiu-’
late, few to equal and none t\iyrpass him.
Washington Irving was born April 3d, 1783,
in the city of New York: in William street,
between John and Fulton streets, not far from
the Old Dutch Church, now occupied by the
site of the “ Washington stores.” The father
of Mr. Irving was a native of Scotland: his
mother a native of England. At the time of
his birth his father had been settled as a mer
chant in this city some twenty years. After
obtaining an ordinary school education. Wash
ington Irving, at the age of sixteen, commenced
the study of the law. Three years later, under
the signature of “ Jonathan Oldstyle,” lie con
tributed a series of letters to the Morning
Chronicle, a newspaper, of which his brother,
Peter Irving, was editor. These attracted
much notice, were extensively copied, and in
1823 or 1824 were collected and published
without the author’s sanction. In 1804 he
sailed for Bordeaux, on a visit to Europe for
liis health. In his travels lie went to France,
Genoa, Sicily, crossing from Palermo to Naples,
passing through Italy, meeting Allston at
Rome, who advised that he should devote him
self to art. After several months’ stay on the
continent, he went to England and returned to
New York in March, 1806, fully restored to
health. He then resumed the study of the
law', was admitted but never practiced. He
took the chief part iu “ Salmagundi” the first
number of which appeared in January, 1807,
and the last-in January, 1808.
In December, 1809,he published liis “ Knick
erbocker’s History of New York,” In 1810,
two of his brothers gave him an interest in a
large mercantile concern, in which, they were
engaged, in Liverpool, and New York, with
the understanding that he devoted himself to
his literary pursuits. In 1813 and 1814, during
the war w r ith Great Britain, he edited the
“ Analectic Magazineand in the Fall of 1814,
joined the military staff of Daniel D. Tomp
kins, Governor of the State of New York, as
’ aid-de-camp and military secretary, with the
rank of Colonel. On the close of the war, May
1815, he embarked for Liverpool, with the in
tention of making a second tour to Europe, but
the business reverses which followed the peace,
involved the house of liis brothers, and after
two or three years of attention to business,
endeavoring to avert the catastrophe, the house
failed, involving him in its ruin. In 1818 he
commenced papers of the “ Sketch Book,”
which were transmitted piecemeal from Lon
don, where he resided, to New York for pub
lication. Three or four numbers were thus
published, when finding that they attracted
notice in England, they were published in a
volume in February, 1820, by John Miller. Mil
ler failed soon after, and the second volume
was published in July, of that year, by Mr.
Murray, who purchased the copyright for
S2OO, but finding the work profitable he
presented Mr. Irving with £2OO additional.
After reading five years in England, Mr.
Irving removed to Paris, August, 1820, remain
ing till July, 1821, when he returned to Eng
land and published “ Bracebridge Hall,” in
London and New York, in May, 1822. He
wintered that year in Dresden, returning to
Paris in 1823, and to London in May, 1824,
when he published his “ Talcs of a” Traveler,”
iu August of that year these wero published
in New York. In August he returned to Paris,
and in the Autumn of 1825, visited the South
of France, spending part of the Winter at
BoKjeaux. In Februrary, 1826, he went to
Mac&frl, where he remained two years, writing
the life of Columbus, whiifei was nublished in
lIB2b. In the .Sprint; .of fifcaLyeas lie visited.
Gran-ada and other point?. mentioned in the
‘ Chronicle of the Conquest of Granada,” by
Fray Agapida, making a sketch of this work.
He prepared it for the press at Seville, and it
appeared in London and New York in 1829.
In the Spring he again visited Granada, and
spent some months in the Alhambra, where
he collected materials for a work of that name
published in 1832. In July he went to Eng
land, having been appointed Secretary of Lega
tion to the American embassy at London, under
Mr. McLane. In 1832, upon Mr. McLane’s re
turn, he remained a few months as Charge, and
resigned on the arrival of Mr. Van Buren. In
1830, Mr. Irving and Hallam, the historian,
each received one of the fifty guinea medals
awarded by George IV, for eminence in histo
rical composition.
In 1851, Oxford University conferred the
degree of D.C.L. upon him, and in 1832 he re
turned to New York, after an absence of sev
enteen years. On hisTeturn to his city he was
greeted with an ovation, at which Chancellor
Kent presided; similar testimonials were ten
dered him from other cities but he declined
them. In the summer of 1832 he visited the
West with Mr. Ellsworth, one of the Commis
sioners for removing the Indian tribes West oi
Mississippi. It was during this journey that
he collected the material for his “ Tour on the.
Prairies,” published in 1835. “Abbotsford
and Newstead Abbey” and “ Legends of the
Conquest of Spain ” were also published the
same year. In 1836 he puUished “ Astoria,”
and in 1837 “ the Adventures of Capt Bonne
ville.”- In 1839, he engaged with the “ Knick
erbocker Magazine ”-to furnish monthly articles
for two years. In February, 1842, he was ap
pointed Minister to Spain, leaving for Madrid
ion the 19th of April, 1842. His official duties--
terminating in 1846, he returned home, and in
1848 commenced the publication of a revision
of his works which were then extant.
In 1849, he published “ Oliver Goldsmith, a
Biography,” and in 1850 “Mahomet and his
Successors.” In 1855 “ Wolfe’s Roost.” In
the same year he published the first volume of
“The Life of George Washington,” the last
volume, the closing work of his life, was pub
dished a few weeks since. In reference to this
► last work, Professor Greene in a recent con
’ versation said, “It is the most invaluable
I work, to his country ; for it gives, to the uni
versal mind, for the first time, a living presence oj
.Washington! To the plurality of common
readers, hitherto, Washington has been a
historical abstraction, hidden in the heavy i
n.-j
Irving made acquainted with
him, in flesh and blood, as it were ; a Washing
ton so pictured that they can admire and
revere him with a human sympatHy.” Since
1849, Mr. Irving’s works have been published
by Mr. G. P. Putnam, who has in that time dis
posed of nearly six hundred thousand volumes.
Mr. Irving had four brothers, William
Irving, the eldest was a merchant. He was a
member of Congress from 1813 to 1819. He
married a sister of Hon. James K. Paulding,
and assisted in the composition of “Salma
gundi.” He died in 1821. Peter, another
brother, was editor of the Morning Chronicle
and assisted in the construction of “ Knicker
bocker’s History of New York.” He was a
physician, and died in 1838. Ebenezer Irving,
is still living. He has made his home at
Sunnj'side. He is the father of Rev. Theodore
Irving, formerly professor in Geneva College
and in tho New York Free Academy. John
Treat Irving was Presiding Judge of the New
York Common Pleas from 1817 until his death
in 1838. He was also a contributor to the
Morning Chronicle. His son, a member of the
New York bar, is the author of several popu
lar works.
A few years since, Mr. Irving purchased a
residence on the banks of the Hudson, about
twenty-five miles from New York, aud between
Irvington and Tarrytown. The quaint old
house, so suggestive of the humor of its pro
prietor, is immortalized in “ Wolfe’s Roost,”
and in the story of Ichabod Crane, and in the
charming spot so appropriately named “ Sunny
side.” Here Mr. Irving has resided, liis
brother and his nieces composing the family,
and here it was that he met the death which
with Christian calmness he had so long waited,
and which had so few terrors for one who had
governed his life by the precepts of the Chris
tian faith. He died, at his residence, “Sunny-
Side,” Tarrytown N. Y., on the banks of the
Hudson, on Monday evening, Nov. 28th, at
half-past ten o’clock, while in the act of un
dressing for bed. He fell, and almost instantly
expired.
For nearly fifty years Mr. Irving has held
an important place in our national literature,
and during ihe greater part of the time, he
has to the eye and thought of foreigners, been
its master spirit. For the character and writ
ings of Mr. Irving, Lord Byron had the most
enthusiastic attachment. Alison cited him as
demonstrating that the American soil is not
wanting in genius of tke most fascinating cliar-
Ucter, The present |impcvor of France knew
and admired Mr. Irving “ both as'a - i’l iu.uni
as a man.” Mr. Edward Everett advised the
aspirant after literary distinction to “ give liis
days and nights to the volumes of Irving.”
Mr. Alexander Everett and Miss Mitford spoke
of him as the “ founder of a school ” of ele
gant literature, the former saying that “ the
mind and beautiful genius of Mr. Irving was
the morning star that led up the march of our
heavenly host.” The critical writings of the
English language abound in observations simi
lar to those we have quoted, and hardly with
out exception the language of unqualified
praise is employed.
Mr. Irving’s writings were eminently marked
by his own peculiar trials. He was modest,
truthful, sincere, genial, honest in his convic
tions, and boundless in his humanity. His
style is never inflated or overwrought, and his
words never derived doubtful force or point
from bitterness, envy or malice. Serene, calm,
of loving nature, liis writings benefited all
who perused them, and penetrated all with
somewhat of the kindly spirit which pervaded
tlieir author. His life was blameless anj pure,
and within the charmed circle of liis imme
diate presence all was happiness and peace.
Respected by all, he was tlie object of rever
ent regard and even passionate attachment to
his young countrymen. To the beautiful Hud
son, on whose hanks he lived and died, he lent
the charms of his graceful pen, and the river
which bears the commerce of a nation, is ren
dered classic by the magic influence of liis
wonderful mind.

HSU* A recent traveler, speaking of the
Chinese town of Pekin, and the first impress
ions a stranger receives on entering within
the wall, says :—“ Once he has passed under
the ponderous northern gate, measured the
thickness of the stupendous will, and is fairly
in Pekin, he will .be entirely Ijewildered ; all
before him in a confused am) dusty mass of
colors, men, mules, cabs, hundreds of camels,
with the weary Mongols in (heir once red
gowns, enthroned and fast tfeleep on their
high summit; an immensity of wide, perfectly
straight, and endless streets ;la living ocean
of the most degraded beggars, of cooks, bar

orators delivering speeches; then right and

walls beautifully carved and gilt over ; in fact,
it is a scene so unique in the world that no
dream could ever be so ecccjiuLc.”
JE@. Os the 5,600 “ thq evolu

received pensions -wider the law of
1836, only 36 remain alive. All these weie
married during or prior to he year 1783, and
have consequently survived their marriage 77
years or more. Sally Stewi rt was married in
1776, at the age of 16, and has survived her
marriage 84 years. Ann P ivis was married
at 13, and has survived the event 80 years. It
is a remarkable fact, 30 of the 36 were mar

average age of tlieir marriages Was about 16) J
years.
HOTELS, RAILROADS,
ETC.--WHO TO PAJRONIZE.
There is no denying the find, there are some
of the best public houses in this city, to be
found any where at the South. For instance
there is Brown’s Hotel —Brown, by-the-by, is
no relation to John, of Harper's Ferry notoriety,
—which has been recently fitted up in the
very best manner. A new'reception room has
been added, and furnished in elegant style.
The Befectory, the Bar, the Billiard Room and
all the various auxiliaries of a first class hotel
are fitted up with the most approved modern
appliances, and are always vrteckcd with the
choicest Visitors to
Macon will do well to remember this.
The Granite Hall, too is regarded in the
first tier of lioteldom. It is’ located close by
our office, on Mulberry street, —which fact
shows as clear as oon-day, that it is in the
best part of the town ;—it is oommodious and
substantia], and the patronage awarded to it,
both from the citizen and the stranger, is good
enough evidence that it is worthy of contin
ued support.
Then there is the Floyd House located iu
the very heart of business, —a tip-top tempo
rary or permanent house. The man of busi
ness especially ■will find this e desirable stop
ping place,—evc*ytliing being carefully calcu
lated for his convenience and comfort. A
