The speeches of Howell Cobb every where attract great attention, and the Abolitionists everywhere rally their best speakers to answer him. I low lie has performed his duty in Ches ter county, the following letter will show.— J l e nnsyl ran in -n. W kst Chester, Pennsylvania, ) . Sept, 20, iSS6. ] Dear Sir: Ex-Gov. Cobb filled his engage ment to address here last evening, the Demo cracy of this District, and I speak the united voice of all who had the pleasure of hearing him—friends and foes —in saying that he made a powerful impression. The large room of the Horticultural hall was densely filled with an auditory of voters, and for two hours the speaker enchained them by his clear argument, frank statements, and im pressive eloquence. There is an evident manli ness, sincerity and integrity of character about the man which largely contribute to aid the matter of his speech. Some gentlemen of the Republican party present rose during his remarks, and asked Jeavc to put questions and make objections, which was granted with the utmost courtesy .and kindness of manner; and then followed the response of Mr Cobb, which was most happy and in one instance overwhelming, from the burst of eloquence. At the conclusion of his address, members of all parties crowded to the stand to be intro duced and take him by the hand, as a power ful advocate of the Union and the constitution or a frank, manly opponent, according to the position occupied by the individual It was thought here, before last evening, that Mr Cobb was au able man, of large pub lic experience, but no one knew his great and commanding power as a speaker. He left this morning for your city, and car ried with him the kindest regards of this com munity. Yours B. From the Chattanooga Advertiser. Tlie Facts in tlie Case. The Chronicle <fc Sentinel of the 15th Sep., contained an article giving the recent vote of Congress on the passage of the Army Appro priation Bill, and stating that Knowlton, of Me., .Sherman and Oliver, of New York, Albright, of Ohio, and Barclay, of Penn., who voted with the Black Republicans, were “live of Mr. Buchanan’s Democratic supporters.” A friend •of ours addressed Judge John IT, Lumpkin, a member of Congress from Georgia, a note in terrogating him as to the truth of the state ment in Chronicle <fc Sentinel. We give the ludge’s reply : Crutchfield House,) Chattanooga, Sep. 17, 1856. f Dear Sir : Yours of this date is before me, asking if it is true that Messrs. Knowlton, of Me., Sherman and Oliver, of N. Y., Albright, of 0., and Barclay, of Penn., are Democratic •supporters of Mr. Buchanan ? TV ith regard to all these gentlemen except Mr. Barclay, the .'statement is not only untrue, but notoriously so. Messrs. Knowlton, Sherman and Albright •were open and avowed Black Republicans.— Mr. Oliver, of New York, is the Black Repub lican chairman of the committee on Invalid Pen sions. Mr. Sherman was the Black Republi c m chairman of the committee sent to Kansas to investigate the facts connected with the elec tion of Gen. Whitfield. Mr. Barclay, of Penn., was elected to Congress as a Democrat, but has manifested during the past session, Black Republican proclivities ; so much so that the Democracy of his District have thrown him overboard, and nominated in his stead, Hon. J. L. Gillis, a sound national Democrat. Yours respectfully, John 11. Lumtkin. Executor’s Sale.

All who are at all acquaint ed with tho article, will immediately answer, Dr M'Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros., Pitts burgh, Pa. It has never been known to fail, and is one of the safest remedies that can be used. A friend of burs late, ly handed ns the following statement in reference to this Vermifuge : New York, Sep. 25, 1852. Gentlemen : A young lady of my acquaintance had been for a long time very much troubled with worms. I advised ber to try Dr M’Lane’s Celebrated Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa. She accordingly pur chased and took one vial, which caused her to discharge an unusual large quantity of worms, She was immediately relieved of all the dreadful symptoms accompanying this • disease, and rapidly recover her usual health. The lady does not wish her name mentioned, ber residence, howev er, is 320 Fifth-street, and she refers to Mrs. Hardie, No 3, Manhattan Place. ttß-Persons will be careful to ask for DR. McLANE'S CELEBRATED VERMlFUGE,manufactured by FLEMING 8R0.,0f Pittsburg, Pa. All other Vermifuges in compari son, are worthless. Dr. McLane’s genuine Vermifuge, also his celebrated Liver rills, can now be had at all respectable Drug Stores. None genuine without the Signature of FLEMING BROS. Otoituaries. Departed this life in the city of Griffin, on Wed nesday morning the Ist of Oct., Mrs. Nancy T. Hancock, wife of Col Wm. H. Hancock. She was naturally retiring and diffident in her disposition; but frank and amiable in her intercourse with cho sen friends. No woman was ever more devoted to her husband and children, and above all, she was not forgetful of the higher duties she owed to her God. For years past she has expressed hope in the mercy of God, through Christ Jesus. She had felt it her duty to connect herself with the Christian church, and had only been waiting for friends whom she hoped would soon be prepared to join her 4 in this service. Her husband and children have the sympathies of a wide circle of friends. J. H. C. *** American Union, please copy.

He was very strict in the obseivance of his Christian duties, and in the observance of all the ordinances of the Church, until he moved to Georgia, which placed him be yond the reach of the Church of his choice. But he con tinued to read his Bible, and was always delighted when conversing on the subject of religion, and in contributing to the snppoit of the gospel and religions institutions, and continued advocating the cause of Sabbath Schools until his death. His regularity, promptness in attendance, his pleasantness when in School, won for him the esteem and confidence of all the School.

Wood’s Hair Restorative, for producing hair on Bald Heads, and restoring Gray Hair to its Natural co/m'. THIS astonishing aud unequalled preparation lids fieter failed to produce a growth on Bald Heads, when used according to the directions, and turn hair back to its orig. inal color, after having become grey, and reinstate it in 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, and hence acts as a perfect Hair invigorator and Tonic. A gentleman of Boston writes to his friends 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, and pulled out freely: but I found before I had used all of the second bottle, (which was eight weeks,) my hair was entirely changed to its original color, (liglitbrowu) and is now free from dandruff,and quite moist. J have had my hair cut 5 or 6 times since the change, and have never seen anj’thing like white hair starting from the roots: and it is now as thick as it ever was, and does not-come out at alh It has prevailed in my case all that I could wish to ask. July 1,1856; Yours&c. Gardiner, Maine, June 22,1864. Dear Sir. I have used two bottles of Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative, and can truly say, it is the greatest discovery of the ffgfe, for restoring and changing the hair.— Before using it, I wasas gray as a rrian 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. 0 N MURPHY. St. Lons, 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. 1 tried all the popular medicihes of the day, but Io no effect. At Inst, I was induced to try your celebra ted Hairßestorative,and am happy to say, it is doing won ders. I have now a fine growth of young hair, and cheer fully recommend its use to all similarly afflicted. A. C. WILLIAMS, 133 Second street.. Rasin Mira., Aug. 2,1855. This is to certify, that one year ago, I was quite gray, and my hair so thinupon the top of my head, that I feared its eutirc 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 usualand it assumed a glossy appearance, appearentlv more beautiful than cverit was before. Ido therefore, cheerfully recom mend it teAll those ladies who value a beautiful head of hair.- I will a iso state that I uso it now, occasionally, for its healthy and beautifying effects. SARAII J.

March 5. 1556,.... ,44 ~, ,-ts __ Howass'* COTTON HARVESTER, FOR TICKING COTTON IN TitL FIELD. THIS valuable machine, second only to the invention of the Cotton Gin, is destined to produce a remarkable change in the method of gathering cotton from the field It will do the work of from three to five hands in picking cotton from the stalk, and is evidently a lalw-suving ma chine. Its benefit to the Planter is incalculable. It picks 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 flic ra pidity of its work, will enable the Planter to prepare his crop for market at an early day, leaving him time for the improvement of his land, houses, enclt-surcs and genera! arrangement of the Plantation. It is light, weighing about 8 pounds, is suspended by a strap over the shoulders,and is operated by means of a crank turned by the hand or fingers. The simplicity of this ma chine is its leading feature—it is not liable to get wit of or der, and any negro of ordinary capacity, is competent to use it. One harvester, with proper care, will last a serkw of years. We are now selling State and Cbnniy Rights for the man ufacture and use of the above machine. Any infomiltion relative thereto,can be obtained by calling on’ A.
