Cjit <ontjiin otuh. GRIFFIN. SEPT., 17, 1856. Griffis Cotton Market .—The receipts up to the pre sent time, have been very ight. But littie coming in.— Fair road fly commands 10$ cents. Explanatory. We surrender, in this issue of our paper, a great er portion of the space usually occupied by edito rial matter, to important political documents.— Most of them we have published before, but as we hare frequent calls for them by cur subscribers and others, we have deemed it advisible to republish them, in one embodiment, so‘that this number of our paper may be preserved for reference during the pendency of the present election. Judge Nesbit’s Letter. We present our readers to-day, with the letter of this truly distinguished jurist and statesman, on the subject of the Presuential election. It breathes throughout, the spirit of a lofty patriotism and a deep devotion to the institutions of the South.— We commend its careful perusal to every reader of oar paper. Grand Rally at Chattanooga. On Thursday, the 11th inst, the Democratic par ty had a grand Mass Meeting at Chattanooga. Ten thousand persons are said to have been pres ent. The meeting was addressed by Ex-Gov. Cobb and the Hon. A. 11. Stephens, of Georgia, Rod Gov. Andrew Johnson, of Tennessee. The speeches of all these distinguished speakers arc represented as being of a masterly order , and Were received with great enthusiasm by the masses.— The cause of Democracy is onwi rl in Tennessee, nJ our friends anticipate a handsome majority for Buck and Breck, at the coming election. The Difference. On the motiou to strike out the Kansas proviso in the Army Appropriation Bill, 18 Buchanan men from the free States voted with the South, and 3 Fillmore men. Truly the sound Fillmore men must be ‘ few and far between,” in that region. A tinie-y Rebuke. We learn from the Augusta Constitutionalist , that at the late session of the Superior Court of Green county, at which Hon. Robert Toombs had an appointment to address the people, the Grand Jury requested his Honor, Judge Hardeman, to forbid the use of the Court House for political speaking, to which the Judge returned the follow ing lacouic but noble response; ’‘The gentlemen of the Grand Jury will please attend to their own business, and I will endeavor to attend to mine.” What a withering rebuke to these inter meddlers? It ought to give Judge Hardeman the vote of eve ry man in his circuit, if he is a candidate for rc election. ——• • • New Advertisements. We would cal! attention to several new adver tisements, to be found in our columns to-day Mr. Joseph Engel, presents to his customers a large and extensive assortment of goods in his line, fresh and genuine, comprising a variety of substantial and fancy articles, to suit the taste and the purses wf every variety of customers. Mr E. has been long and favorably known as a merchant in this place, and will no doubt receive, as he deserves, a liberal patronage. Messrs McWilliams & Roberts have recently opened a “Grocery A Provision Store,” a very use ful v.slitut.cn, in tiuse times. These gentlemen are weii known in this community and need no indorse ment from us. They go upon the cash principle, and prefering the fast penny to the slow skilling, are coutcnt with the smallest living profits. Give them a call, by all means, if you want good bar -2T&II1S. Messrs. Brawuer A DuSfey offer great induce ments to the public, in the richness and variety Oj their magnificent stock, recently purchased by Mr D. in New York, Boston, and other markets.— Their goods will bear the test of the most critical inspection, and being men of liberality, they are resolved to suit their prices to the times, and though desirous of being rich, are willing to be come so by slow and gradual progress. None need be afraid to call at their store, if good and cheap bargains are what they want. Mr. John H. White, Merchant Tailor, has re cently returned from market, with a large and ex tensive assortment of Clothing, and Goods in his a. Mr. White'B long experience in the business and his knowledge as a practical mechanic, are a sufficient guarantee that his purchases are of the genuine stamp, and will do good service. He is worthy of a liberal patronage. Give the working aw a call, and prove to him the truth of the max im, **tbc laborer is worthy of his hire.” The Proof. Some weeks ago wc asked the editor of the Athens Post to explain to his readers why it was that in some of the non slaveholding States skat the frieuds of Mr. Fillmore and Fremont jvad united upon the same electoral ticket. The editor of the Post flatly denied that such union had taken place and called on us for the proof.—Well, here it is We take the following ticket from the Huntington, Indiana, Gazette, a Fremont pap^r: fob president: JOHN C. FREMONT, of New York. FOR VICR president: AY. L. DAYTON, of New Jersey. ELECTORS FOR THE STATF. AT LARGE. George W. Dunn, of Lawrence. Andrew L. Osborne, of Laportc. DISTRICT ELECTORS. 1. James G.

Thomas S. Stanfield, of St. Joseph. 10. John B. Howe, of Lagrange. 11. William R. Hate, of Wabash. We clip the following from the same pa per: “COAUTON BETWEEN FILLMORE AND FRE mont The Fillmore State Convention of Indiana have just UNITED, with the FRE MONT or BLACK REPUBLICAN PAR TY, by nominating the SAME ELECTOR AL TICKET for the State. If any of our Democratic friends have been feeding therasel vs up with the hope of a DIVISION among the American and Republican parties upon the State ticket, they would do well to give up that hope as utterly futile. ‘‘The friends of Mr. Fillmore should now go to work to secure a majority of the popular vote of the State of Indiana for him; if they succeed, of which we have no doubt, the Electoral vote will be cast for him. Let there be no CLASHING between the friends of FILLMORE and FREMONT, because their muse is ONE CAUSE. Let the energies of the friends of each be directed against Buch anan, and we will have no more slave soil to curse our goverment.” There is the proof, Mr. Ivins, from a Fill more paper. How do you like it? It is the way all your papers talk in the non slaveholding States, while your papers swear in the South that the Fillmore party is tl.e only national organization in the country. What hypocrisy! Let the reader mark that it was a FILL MORE STATE CONVENTION that brought about this coalition. Does the editor of the Post want any more proof ? We have sustained the assertion we made, by a Fillmore paper, which ought to be good evidence with the Post. There is one of two things very certain, the editor of the Post is wofully igno rant of what is going on north, or he is trying to lead estray the public mind.—Which is it? —Cleveland ( Tenn.) Banner. [From the Georgia Telegraph.] Speech of Mr. Joliu Qiiiitcy Adams Alford to the Know Nothings. We intend to handle this gentleman gently. He must have suffered mortification enough after t he failure of his harrangue without having the castigation which he justly diserves added to his miseiy. The music of the band, and the barrel-shaped dark lantern swung out over the street and bearing in dingy capitals the word “Fillmore Club,” (why not poor Donelson too?) had drawn together a goodly number of the Ameri/ans to hear our orator’s effort (it was an effort) and to drinkMn his wonderful elo quence as it fell word by word upon their eager ears, lie alluded frequently to his “argument,” which saiu argument we never discovered, uor do we believe that his audience comprehended it, for when he informed them that he was in the midst of it they were leaving by the dozen. H beseached them to stay —he would soon be through—have a little patience, ray friends —but no, he might cry patience, patience but there was no patience—he had bored the poor fellows terribly. If they wont listen to argument, perhaps a little smutty anecdote will rouse their drooping spirits and exeite a chuc kle. Now for it—“well gentlemen, as there are no ladies in the room I will tell you an anecdote.” Good gracious, cornered, foiled again! An old chief near by says “no”—his drowsy followers wake up aud echo “no.” Re member Jonathan Davis. lie treated us to one of his chaste anecdotes and thereby scared most of the decent men from our party and left us scarcely a corporal’s guard. Our orator was astonished, astoned. His main gun was spiked—he was in a pretty fix. A happy thought strikes him. Right * thar” is his scrapbook chock full of flat, stale and iuspid newspaper paragraphs. These poor stupid fools down here in this hamlet of Macon, thought he, can’t relish a good joke and they have never read half of riiern “extracts”—l will give them an “extract.” The chief and his followers tolerated the extract ; and from eight o’clock till past ten did a part of his pi tiable, deluded hearers writhe and twist, and groan under his great load of extracts, which was piled on thick and fast. Verily he piled on the agony. To use one of his own elegant phrases, he stuck to “that thar” scrap-book and “them thar” old papers “wus than grim death doos to a dead nigger.” But let’s have mercy on him—that “ojus” doctrine Squatter •Sovereignty, has scared away all his wiis Don’t let them extracts frighten you again, Mr. John Quincy, and accuses the Unterrified of being made up of ‘eye of newt, &c.,” but go to ten cents Jimmy, get his advice aud follow his counsels, and we will warrant that you will never again get into such “double, double toil and trouble.” If you wont do this, go unto “Uncle Billy Mosely” and appeal to him as pathetically as you did to your deserting fol lowers to pray ior you, and you may be reliev ed of some of that trouble. Filially, if you wish your party to die a nat ural death and not meet with an untimely end in this section, stick to your lodge in Griffin. Its members will doubtless be delighted with your eloqunce, charmed with your extracts, will listen to your anecdotes and will yell and howl in fear and trembling at your “definition” of Squatter Sovereignty BUCHAN EER, Holloway’s PHI*.

M’Lnne’s Vermifuge In Texas. Hear what the proprietor of the “Star Hotel” has to say of the wonderful effects of M’Lane’s Vermifuge : Star Hotel, Centreville, Texas, August 22, 1854. Messrs. Fleming Bros : I feel it my duty to make the fol lowing statement : Several of my children have been un well for the last week or two. I called at the “Big Mor tar” to get some Oil of Wormseed and other truck, to give them for worms. The Druggist recommended M’Lane’s Vermifuge, prepared by you, but having heretofore tried every Vermifuge in iny know ing, without advantage, I told him it was not worth while, as my children appeared proof against them all. He said to me take a bottle, and of fered if it done no good, to refund the money. Vo satisfy him, I done >, aud the effect was so much better than ex pected,that I got another bottle, aud the result was most astonishing. Three of my children discharged a great number of the largest worms I ever saw. To a young man, my mail carrier, who was weak, puny and poor, as a snake, for a month or so, I gave two doses, which brought for him at least a pint of what is called stomach worms. Strange as this may appear, yet it is as “true as preaching .” How the boy stood it bo long as he did, with ten thousand “Butts” gnawing at his stomach, is the greatest wonder to me. All these cases are now doing well. No doubt the lives of thousands of children have been saved by the time, ly use of this extraordinary medicine. Pou’t fail to give it a trial. T RTHURMAN wifi hp careful to ask for DK. McLANE'S CELEBRATED VEHtyUFUGE,manufacturedbyFLEMlNG 880.,0f Pittsburg, Pa,. All other Vermifuges in compari son, are worthless.

Griffin, April 9, 1856 49 ly Professor O. J. Wood’s Hair Restorative, for producing hair on Bald Heads, and restoring Gray Hair to its Natural color. THIS astonisbiug and unequalled preparation has never failed to produce a growth ou Bald Heads, when used according to the directions, and turn hair back to its orig. inal color, after having become grey, and reinstate it iu all its original health, lustre, softness, and beauty. Removes atonceall scurf, and unpleasant itching, scrofula, erup tions and feverish heat from the scalp, it also prevents the hair from becoming unhealthy and falling off, aud hence acts asa perfect Hair invigorator and Tonic. A gentleraau of Boston writes to his friend.- in New Bed ford thus: To your inquires I would reply, that I first commenced using Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative, my hair was almost white and had been so for the last ten years, and it was very thin on the top of my head, and very loose, aud pulled out freely; but I found before 1 had used all of the second bottle, (which was eight weeks,) my hair was entirely changed to its original color, (lightbrown) and is now free from dandruff', and quite moist, i have had my hair cut 5 or 6 times since the change, and have never seen anything like white hair starting from the roots: aud it is now as thick as it ever was, and does not come out at all. It has prevailed iu my case all that I could wish to ask. July 1,1855. Yours Ac. Gardinf.u, Maine, June 22,1854. Dear Sir: I have used two bottles of Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative, and can truly say. it is the greatest discovery of the age, for restoring and changing the hair Before using it, I was as gray as a man of seventy. My hair has now attained its original color. You can recommend it to the world, without the least fear, as my case was one of the worst kind. D N MURPHY. St. Louis, March 7 1854. Prof. Wood: My hair commenced falling off’ some three or four years since, and continued to do so, untill I became quite bald. I tried all the popular medicines of the day, but lo no effect. At last, 1 was induced to try your celebra ted Hair Restorative,and am happy to say, it is doing won ders. I have now a tine growth of young hair, aud cheer fully recommend its use to all similarly afflicted. A. C. WILLIAMS, 133 Second street. Rabin Mich., Aug. 2,1855. This is to certify, that one year ago, I was quite gray, and my hair so thin upon the top of my head, that I feared its entire loss. In this condition, 1 applied for and obtain ed a bottle of Prof. Wood’s‘Restorative,’ and before I had used one quart bottle, the gray hairs had entirely disap peared and it had thickened up, so as to he full as usual and it assumed a glossy appearance, appearently more beautiful than everit was before. Ido therefore, cheerfully recom mend it to all those ladies who value a beautiful head of hair. I will aise state that I uso it now, occasionally, for its healthy and beautifying effects. SARAH J. BROWN. Cm ago, May 1,1854. I have used Professor Wood’s Hair Restorative to decided advantage. It prevents the hair from coming out, gives it a gloss and softness very desira'-le. The tew gray hairs I had, have entirely disappeared. Others of my family have used it, and concur with me in pronouncing it all it profess es to be. IIENRY A.CLARK, Michigan Avenue.

THIS valuable machine, second only to tiie invention a( the Cotton Gin, is destined to produce a remarkable change in the method of gathering cotton from the field lt will do the work of from three to five hands in picking cotton from the stalk, and is evidently a labor-suving ma chine. Its benefit to tlie Planter is incalculable, lt pick* the cotton clean and free from trash, leaves it in excellent condition for ginning—obviates the necessity of exposing the hands to heavy deWs, rains and cold, and from the ra pidity of its work, will enable the Rlanter to prepare hia crop for market at an early day, leaving him time for the improvement of his land, houses,- enclosures and genewn arrangement of the Plantation. It is light, weighing about 8 pounds, is suspended by & strap over the shoulder’s,and is operated by means of a cianx turned by tlie hand or fingers. The simplicity of this ma chine is its leading feature—it is not liable to get out of or der, and any negro of ordinary capacity, is competent to use it. One harvester, with proper care, will last a series of years. We are now selling State and County Rights for the man ufacture and use of the above machine. Any infoutatioa relative thereto,can be obtained by galling on A. Wildbor, General agent for Georgia, Florida.
