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 bers, blind men beating upojt kettle drums, orators delivering speeches; then right and left, brilliant shops, cases and hotels, sur mounted by long poles of all colors, wooden 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 tion,” widows of revolufioii^-y - Soldiers, who 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 ried under the age of 18 ygars, and that the 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 genial host, moderate’ cl urges and polite inventcha'racteristice of the I loyd ‘ *> 1 Iu our advertising columns will be found a liberal array of Railroad announcements, and we are making such arrangements’ as will materially augment the list. Railroad Super intendents are sharp-sighted men. They generally have two eyes, and they use them to advance the interests of the Corporations they represent. Hence it is that they adver tise in the Republic. They can see that it is for their interest to do so. The Repub lic, thanks to a generous community, has attained an immense circulation. It is seen and read everywhere*. Wg~ mean to keep the travelling public posted in regard to the quickest, cheapest, and si feat routes, and we know of no better way to iccomplish this than to advertise them regula ly in our columns. The attention of the reider is also called to the steamship fines annoinctdjn this paper. There are no safer vesseli in Atlantic waters.
