Them never was a better diuiicrat than Un cle Jake Rogers on the yearth, aliers iUtendin barbecues and scjeechfyi 11s every chance, and like the Parson, could give a reason for the faith that was in him—he has aliers been look ed 111> to Asa, sort of oracle in penitical mat ters-, and nocs the history of L e United States Bank and its orel’u! iniquities, the tariff and its oppressors, the distribution of the pnbiick lands, and al them measures the old Whigs used to try to fix on the people so hard In fact, Uncle Jake was a diuiicrat irotu the top of his head to the sole of his feet, and from one side albathro’ to the other, and Ann Nan ev, his wife, was just as rambunctious on the .-übject as himself, only a little more so. Now. Mr. Eastman, I don’t like to expose Uncle Jake, but the thing is so good, I’ll have t o tell you all about it. Last summer tlmr cum into our sottl'eni'ent a nice young man, sent out as I larnt, from your place to make No-N a things, but lie didn’t let us no what he cum fur at f st. Howsomever, he linked iu quite a lot on ’em, principally v\ hi y S, and I larnt that nun on ’em intended i trying their hands 011 Uncle Jake. Thinks 1, old tellers, you’ll be barkin’up the wrong tree, sertin, but the fust thing I need, they got holt of the old man, treated him, told him that the Dimierats were all a jiiiiii’ on em, that it was no Whig trick, nor nothin’ of that sort—that the Rope of ■‘roam’ was a cornin’ here to use up our Governmei t, to make preest's ol the boys aid nuns of all the g Js—that all the oth er denominations wud have to t avc iu, and wear crosses and ki.-s the dope’s b; ■ toe —that the No-Nuthim. ware going to stop all these evil things go ng to regenerate the laud; and bring things back to the days 0! ten. Jackson —iliat Gov Jackson’s folks war all fur ’em; tooth and toe nail, and what with <me thing and another, the lust thing Uucie Jake uoed, he was ti regular riugtailed No-iN uthin. luey dtui the ole man at nite, and arter it was all over, he started home, an’ as he went along, his mind was full of m sgiviugs, how could he face the ole ’oman ? - - hat. would Diueriil Jackson say if he was alive ? How could he meet his old Duiiioraiic triends again ( A;id he suddenly recollected that Tne Union, (the old watci imui on the lower ol our Feditical Zion, as lie u.-ed Lo call your paper,) was op posed to it All these things begin to work in Uncle Jake’s mind; till by the time he got home, be - as iu a powerful svvivie. ILe found Aunt Nancy a sitting up fur him, and Uncle Jake he never was ashamed to meet her afore. “Well, Jake,” scs she, ‘ what oh yearth has kept vou out so late to-night V lor U tide Jake was very regular in his habits “Wy, Nancy, 1 been round attendin’ a meet in to nite,” says he, quite ‘lesitatin 1 like “What kind ol media’ ?” ses she. 14 Wy. a sort uv perlitieul eeting,” ses he, shiverin’ all over, loi _.e was powerlul uneasy by th s tiiue. • “Web,’ ses she, “if you’ve been trying to bed these No-NothiDS, i amt got no more to say, for you couldn’t be in better business lor I learn that sutue as call themselves dimierats, havejineJ ’em. I don’t like ’em no how, Jake, for they don’t come out open and above board, but ar pokin round at nite in alleys and dark places ; but thank the Lord, you aiut wuu on ’em. fui I know 1 could ni live \>itn one on ‘em to save my hie But vihal makes you look so, Jacob, arc you sick ? Bless my hie, it you amt get a chill on you, and your hands are cold as ice. What’s the ma icr, Jake b j “Nuthiu much, ’ ses Uncle Jake, “I don’t feel very well to-nite, oie ’oman, and I 11 go to bed,”so savin’ he slipt into bed, and the ole ’oman after him. Bimeby Uncle Jake, arter tossiu and rolliu about gits to sleep and dreinpt that all nis Diuiicrat friends iie used to be with so much, won kin* l have nuthing to uo with him, and that he couldn’t no longer vote his old ticket, for ; his old friends and his old principles, and lie | groaned in spit it. | Aunt Nancy waked him up, slice*.cd to doth, I and Uncle Jake had to out with the whole; thing. Aunt Nancy jumped out of bed and j declared she couldn’t stay tlmr, tha a No- j Nothin couldn’t come a nigh her. Uncle Jake at last told her es she would forgive him, he’d go early in the mornin’ audgitout of the thing. i>ut she told him no, she eoukln t stand him till uioruing, and directly Uncle Juke hauls on his close, and went out and got the President; and some more on ’em together, and swore he must get out afore morning, or kill sum body one. i hey let him out —and when he got loose, lie sung, he shouted, he da. ced and capered Ike a boy— he run home and like to hyie squeezed A.’lit . auey to death ; site, good oat soul, was mitily riled about it, and powerfully distressed,; but sealed his pardon with a kiss of forgive- j ness, and let by-goues be by gooes. One man soon arter hinted to Uncle Jake that he heard lie was a Ao-A utliit - , when he pitched into tne feller an .ike to a wallopped • him to doth ; since that time nobody has never accused Uncle Jake of being a No Nuthin. — 1 ’ ic/csburg Sentinel.

From the Georgia Citizen. An Up 11*31 Business. The American press will have a heavy load to car y, in supporting Donaldson for the Vice Presidency. In fact, the Major, while editor of the Washington Uu on, lias furnished the opposition with any amount of “grape and canister” against Mr. Fillmore. The columns of that paper teemed with abuse of the ex- President, charging upon him tile sin of aßoli tionism, and holding the opinions that the in stitution of slavery was a curse, and should not be extended into new territories. How all tliWcdn be explained without stultification of the Vice Presidential nominee, is not so easy to perceive. We do not intend to assist in any such bootless labor. Buts grievous as is that .transgression, there is yet another .still more offensive. Maj. Don aldson, while editor, as aforesaid, pandered to the ami-American sentiment of the country, and favored foreign immigration Here is an extract from one of his editorials, only a few years since : “Immigration. —The Republic of Wcdues nay contains a long article on immigration to the United States. It portrays in vivid colors the rapid and unparalelled increase in the num ber of those who are seeking our shores. The Irish emigration is so great that the court journal classes it among the phenomena of his try We (Andrew Jackson Donaldson) arc glad to see this emigration from the Old World. It brings to us the physical force we need to fell the forest and to build oiir improvements. We have yet,and will have for many long years, scope and range enough for their industry and enterprise. But it was not our intention to discuss this branch of the subject at the present time The native party is now prostrate, and it will be time enough to commence the discussion when another attempt is made by the Federalists to revive the principles of the Alien Laws.” What say you, Americans of Georgia, to such an’ exhibition of the political opinions of the candidate, foisted upon yon by the late Philadelphia Convention for the Vice Presi dency ? Can you consistently support a man who lias thus reviled your principles ? We trust not We hope that the American party of Georgia will act for themselves in this mat ter. If 51 r. Fillmore be the chosen of a majoii ty, so be it. We wi'l yield our preference so far as he is concerned, but “in the name of all the gods, at once,” do not place that “greasy Tennesseean,” as Brownlow calls him, on the same ticket ! Give us.Crittenden, Clemens, Sldcktun, Hilliard, Milker, Pike, Dawson, or any other good man for Vice President, and we may have some heart lor co operating in the canvass approaching, with our lriends and for our principles, but net otherwise. V Lotterv Scheme.-—The French Journal du Loirct relates the following scheme resorted to by a young damsel to procure a husband: — “ A young lady, pretty and well educated, residing in the arrondissement of Pithiviers, has conceived the idea of putting herself up to lottery. Tiici'e tire to be 300 tickets, at 10 0 francs each, and to the fortunate winner she will give herself and the 290,000 francs by way of dowry. The lady has attached some very prudent ci editions to the purchase of tickets. She will only sell them to persons whcfni she may think will suit her; and iii order to test that point, she exacts a half hour’s tete-a-tete conversation with each appli cant. There is nd limit of age imposed, but more than one ticket may be token by one person. The lottery will be drawn on the 25th of November next at the Mairie Pitlii viers. No married men are allowed to take tickets. It is sa'd that a number of English men have already become purchasers and ’ ‘applications are coming in from all quarters.” Deatli amongst us. During a very few days past, the Angel of death has plied his sickle with no idle hand. On Saturday the Bthiust. Dr. Benj F. Car ter late Representative from the county of Murray, died at the residence of his fftthei’, Col. F. Carter, of consumption. Dr. C. was a most estimable young man, and his premature death is deplored by all who knew him. On Tuesday the lltli Mr. Richard F. Budd, proprietor of the W ashington Hall in this city! died. Mr Budd had been a citizen of this pi ae‘e only a short time, lie came, we believe, froih Canada He was an old man. On the night of the same day, Dr. Holmes; assistant Physician ‘of the Lunatic Asylum died, of’ Pneumonia, at the residence of Dr.T. F.Green. Dr. Holmes wo believe wasbngihaliy from Floyd County Ga. He was an estimable young man, with a bright, promise of futuro usefulness and distinction. On the same day, Mr. Cluis. Jenkins, an aged man, was drowned in the Oconee opposite the city. On the loth first. Mrs. Mary M. Cotting wife of Dr. John B. Cotting, formerly State Geologist, of Pneumonia. — Fed. Uniuh. No. 47 Per Contra: The Pennsylvanian contains the following: Donei.sox Blaxbi&RixG the Dead. ‘The proceedings of the Know Nothing con vention a* recorded in Tuesday’s Enquirer, present some remarkable statements. The nominee for the Vice Presidency,under impulse said ‘t'.at lie left the democratic party;’ but; jat the suggestion of an old whig, who did hbt wish the candidate to avow that position, cor rected him, and induced him to adopt the lan guage of his prompter, ‘that the democra ic party,’had left him. He was then asked by Andrew Stewart—ever an opponent and revil er of ‘Oxl Hickory’—‘where would General Jackson be, if alive, in the present contest?’ The reply of Donelsou, of course, was, ‘With the American (know nothing) party !!’ A base slander. But the assertion of Gen. Call that Doneison had been the adviser of Gcti. Jackson during his administration; calls For explanation If he means thereby that any of the measures which distinguished the adminis tration of an old patriot, hero and statesman were proposed by Doneison, we must be allow ed to deny the statement, because the only case publicly known in which lie dared to in terfere with the General’s judgement and ac tion is recorded by John C Hives, us fol lows : The message of President Jackson, which j referred to the French indemnity, was soften a m i.-inguaffi by Doneison and others, | who wanted the nerve and judgement Os the i President. Mr. Rives brought it back in print, and it was read to the General. Stop, Doneison, said Jackson, that is not as I put it; how is this? Why, General, repliedDou elson, in great confusion, the Cabinet had a meeting, and thought the language was a little too stiong, and they concluded to soften it a little. I don’t care for tile cabinet, rejoined the President; this i? iny message, not theirs; and turning to Mr. Rives, observed: Please restore the original language. This Was done and the event justiecd The sagacity of the old statesman. France paid the money. The war that was to lie ended in smoke. Tiiis incident shows what reliance General Jackson placed upon Donelson’s advice, and how far he was accustomed to follow it. . As to the General being in the Know Nothing ranks if alive, there is not a true friend of his in the United States that believes the foul slander. In Deliiaasd out of Debt. Os what a hideous progeny of ill is debt the father ! V\hat meanness, what invasions t on self-respect, what cares, what double dealing ! How, in due season, it will carve the frank, open face into wrinkles, how, like a knife, it will stab the honest heart ! How it has been known to change a goodly face into a mask of brass; how with the ‘damned custom’ of debt, has the man become the callous trickster ! A freedom of debt aud what nourishing sweet ness may be found in cold water; what tooth someness in dry crust; what ambrosial nour ishment in a hard egg., Be sure of it, he who dines out of debt, though his meal be a biscuit and an union, dines in ‘the Appollo.’ And then for raiment —what warmth in a thread bare coat, if the tailors receipt be in your pocket; what Tyrian purple in the faded rvais coat, the vest not owed for. How glossy the well worn hat if it cover not the aching of a debtor ! Next tho home sweets, the out door recreations of the tree man. The street door falls not a nell on liis heart: the foot on the staircase, though he live on the third pair sends no spasms through his anatomy; at the rap of his door he can crow forth, ‘come in,’ and his pulse still beat healthfully, his heart sink not in his bowels.* Sec him abroad. — How he returns look for look with any passen ger, lidw he saunters; how meeting an aeqain tance, he stands and gossips ! But, then, this man knows i ot debt—debt, that casts a drug into the richest wine; that makes the food of the gods unwholesome, indigestible; that sprinkles the banquet of a Ducullus with ashes and drops soot into the soup of an emperor; debt that like the moth makes valueless furs and Velvets, enclosing the wearer in a festering pristin; (the shirt of Nessus was a shirt not paid i'or;) debt that writes upon frescoed halls the handwriting of the attorney; that puts a voice of terror in tho knocker; that makes the heart quake at the haunted fireside; debt, that invisible demon that walks abroad with a man, llo .\ quickening his steps, now making him look on all sides like a hunted beast, and now bringing to his face the ashy hue of death, as the miconcious passenger looks glaiicingly up on him. Poverty is a bitter draught yet may —and sometimes with advantage—be gulpb’tl down. Though the drinker make wry faces, there may after all be a wholesome goodness in the cup. But debt, however courteously it be offered, is the cup of a syren, and tho wine, spiced and delicious though it be, is pois on. The man out of debt, though with a flaw in his jerkin, a crack in liis shoeleather, and a hole in his hat,- is still the son of liberty, free as the singing lark above him, but the debtor, though clothed in the utmost bravery, what is he but a serf out upon a holiday—a slave, to bo reclaimed at any instant by his owner, tho creditor ? j\ly son, if poor, see the wine run ning soring, let thy mouth water at least a week’s'roll” think a threadbare coat the ‘only wear;’ and acknowledge a white washed gar ret the finest housing place for a gentleman. Do this, and flee debt So shall thy heart be at oeacc, and the sheriff be confouuded.— Dauglas Jarrold.
