just to hi? reactors and tW* whole public he
must have independence enough, in all mat

without being obliged, to slop first tocon-
,-iid«r : hovr the jmbjwtj <d truth will he
Ukelv to ailed the interests of this nr that
.party, or man. or set of men. Tlio highest
nnd noblest ends of journalism are by no
means attained in the publication of a pa
per from the columns of which everything
that is calculated to advance one side bf a
' question, or one interest, is studiously ex
cluded, while everything which bears in the
opposite direction is as studiously gathered
up and published, with whatever of color
ing and exaggeration the nature of the ca. c
and the credulity of the public may be sup
posed to admit. And yet partizan journal
ism has been carried quite to this extent, in
this country,- of late years-. The effect of
this tendency has been, at the same time, to
lessen the confidence of the public teachings
of professed party papers, and to degrade
the character and destroy the influence of
the press generally. 'flic prevalence and
notoriousness of these abuses of the high
prerogative of the press is, however, natur
ally bringing about a corrective in tbc es
tablishment and success of independent pa
pers—papers which repudiate the mental
slavery that a trammeled and one-sided par-
tizan-ship imposes—papers which make it
their object to disseminate correct and reli
able information and whose practice is to
speak out in plain wmjds, on all occasions,
what they believe to^w the truth and what
the people ought to know, no matter whose
frauds or whose ambitious schemes may thus
be interfered with. If we look among the
prominent papers of our acquaintance, we
will see the most influential and prosperous
ones in the Union are those which are sub
servient to no party, politician or corpora
tion. Such are the Balimore Sun, New
York Herald, Journal of Commerce, Phila
delphia Ledger, and others which might be
mentioned. As the people begin to get
tired and disgusted with the mere paid bel-
lows-blowers, independent journals begin to
spring up and thrive.
These reflections have naturally occurred
to us by seeing in the Savannah Georgian
of Sunday last a kind of editorial declare
tion of independence, in which the editors
say:
“ Henceforth, then, we shall recognize no
obligation to surrender gratuitously the col
umns which cost us money, and the printers
whom we weekly' pay, to the use of men
who desire office and its emoluments, wheth
er behalf of themselves or friends. Nor
shall we recognize any party’s claim upon
up, as a mailer of right, to advocate Vue
election of its candidates. We will reserve
the liberty of consulting our feelings; and
the support which wc give through our edi
torials, will be given, when given, as a mat
ter of favor, not as an obligation.”
A Queer Judge.-Judce Gray went toBing-
hampton, N. Y,, for tlie purpose of holding
the usual term of his Court, but adjourned
without trying a single cause. It appears
that the Judges of the Suprem Court Insti
tuted a rule requiring all lawyers to remain
standing upright while'examining witnesses.
This Judge Gray desired to inforcc in his
circuit, but the attorneys would not submit,
and so the term had to go by default.”

The Sortlwra Whigs.
Francis Granger, of New York, who was,
we believe. Postmaster General under Pres
ident Harrison, and who is one of the most
prominent Silver-Grey Whigs, has issued a
circular letter in behalf of tlie “Conserva
tive Whigs” of New York, calling a con
vention of the “National Whigs” of that
State, opposed to the Seward domination, to
meet at Albany in January next for the
purpose of reorganizing the northern whig
paty on a national basis. The complexion
of the new organization may be seen by the
following paragraph from the cicuiar
letter:
It is proposed to issue an address to the
Whigs throughout the State, in which tlie
principles of the national Whig party will
be plainly declared, expressing a decided
opposition to the Nebraskabill, as a violation,
of the Missouri compromise, and adlieringto
the Whig principles established by the Na
tional Convention at Baltimore in 1852,
pledging ourselves to oppose all proposition
for tlie fusion of the Whig party with any
other for the pupose of forming a sectional
party, based upon the agitations of tlie day.
A Mngniflceiit Establishment.
We find in the Albany (N. Y.) Evening Tran
script, the following account of an elegant estab
lishment, just erected in that city, for an office, by
Dr. La Croix, whose medical advertisement will
be seen in anoiher column:
Among the new buildings of a public character
that have been constructed during the present sea
son, Dr. La Croix’s, in Maiden Lane, near the in
tersection of James street, ranks A Xo. 1. It is
doubtless more complete in all its parts, more elab
orately and artistically finished, and combines
more of the beautiful and ornameutal, while it is
devoid of all that would appear extravagant or
superfluous, than any other building in the city.
The front is of free stone to the second story, ter
minating with a belt course which forms the sills
of the second story windows, The entrance to the
vestibule is encircled With a wreath of carved
mouldings representing a suspended or hanging
vine. The doors are massive, nnd the imitation of
black walnut, which is repreuted in the graining,
is as line a specimen of this difficult art as we
have seen in many a day. The doors have hut
two panels each—one an oval or oblong, the other
circular-—the two combined forming an exclama
tion point of mammoth dimensions—the carved
circle of ornamental work surrounding them car-
j tying out the design of the suspended vine worked
j at the entrance. The mirror polish, which is in
j keeping with the whole, is truly beautiful.
; 'The front entrance is in the centre of the build-
i bi;;. On the right of the vestabule is the office—
j on the lell the reception room—in front two bcau-
) iiliii stained glass windows, manufactured by Gib-
j son, Broadway, New York, an establishment, by
j the way, which has accomplished more in this
j country to advance the art than any other. Each
! sa.-li, and they are near each other, comprises four
I panes of glass, and from tbc reception room or of-
| ficc, with the light full upon them, represents a
i scattered boquet of the richest flowers known in
> Flora's vocabulary, each pane contributing its pro-
I portion of flowers to make up the compliment.—
; In a highly finished scroll underneath each pane,
' again contributing its proportion, are the words
i ‘Dr. La Croix’s Medical Office.’ The design i- j
j beautiful and the execution as could only have
j been rendered by Gibson's polish artists.
. The floor is of marble, now so generally used in
! public buildings. The consultation room, labora-
i tury, together with the office and reception room,
1 nlljurnished in good taste—a quality which the
Dr. possesses in a great degroc—complete the suite
of the first floor.
The second story is also well arranged for the
comfort and convenience of his patients, and is di.
vided into two large parlors and a bed room. Here,
as isi the reception and consultation rooms, every
thing that meet the eye seems not only lilted for
the position it occupies but seems absolutely nec
essary. The Italian marble mantles', elaborately
ornamented cornices and chandeliers would appear
out ol place did not tlie furniture—entireiv of
Albany manufacture—fully comport with them.
The third story is devoted to the bindery. There
has been, of late years, so great a demand for the
Doctor's publications that he litis made arrange
ments for having all branches, except the printing,
carried on in his establishment, in a wholsalc man
ner, under (lie superintendence of a practical man.

Tue Election—tl'leggl Voting—The Trial for
Piracy-—T Poisoning Case—Opera Sus-
p nded-—S\.; -.cat the Crystal Palace—S-n-
tenced.
Everybody here is in -confusion about the
result of the election. First one party, anti
(lien another, dre confident of having won
•the victory, xhie thing is clear, however.
There was a large business done in the wav
of illegal t oting. Tiie various station-
houses yesterday had more or loss persons
in limbo, charged with that offence. Mon
ey flowed h; freely as water -in districts
where voting was close. Bribery and cor
ruption were probably never so open or
brazen-faced before.
The trial of Captain James Smith, late of
the hrig Julia Moulton, charged with, being*
engaged in -the slave trade, was resinned
yesterday.* 1 he witnesses examined were,
a Notary of Burling Slip, who testified to
shipping a crew for Captain Smith : deputy
collector McClellan, of Boston, who at
tested to the clearance papers of the Julia
Moulton, and several of the crew who cor
roborated the main facts charged in the in
dictment. -James Will, one of the" hands
on board the slave brig, stated that while
the negroes were coming on hoard the ves
sel. he saw Captain Smith buy a boy—one
of the negroes-—about 5 years old* The
price paid for him was 87.50. Altogether,
the testimony against the prisoner is very
strong.
The black woman, Sarah Jane Williams,
accused .of poisoning live persons, at 182
Church street, has been committed for ex
amination. The parties poisoned are doing
well, and tlie physicians think that they
will all recover.
Mr. Ilacketf, it seems, has discharged his
opera troupe and locked up the doors of the
Academy of Music—when again, if ever,
to open with Grisi and Mario, nobody
knows. It is whispered that they will soon
appear in Philadelphia.
The marble statuary and other ariteles on
exhibition at tlie Crystal Palace were brought
to the hammer yesterday. Owing to The
tightness of the money market, however,
there was not so many purchasers present
as were expected. The sale will be contin-
aed for several days.
_ Yan Tine and Finn, the two boys con
victed of setting fire to the Government
buildings on ‘ Governor’s Island, were sen
tenced yesterday to 3 years’ imprisonment
in tlie State Prison.
The Cincinnati Bank Failures.—We
announced yesterday the suspension at Cin
cinnati of Ellis & Sturgis, Snead & Co.,
Bankers. Tlie New York Times says the
announcement of die failure of Ellis & Stur
gis was soon followed by the suspension of
Sturgis & Ellis, in New York. We presume
there was an intimate connection between
the two. None of these bankers issued
notes. The only bank of issue in Cincinna
ti is the Ohio Life and Trust Company. All
others have been engaged in receiving larg#
amounts of deposits, allowing interest on
them, and keeping up a large ‘line of dis
counts for the dealers. A panic of course
induce--- an immediate demand for deposites
and in this instance to an extent which could
not he met. The Times also says:
1 he immediate occasion of tlie run in
Cincinnati is said, to be the failure of tlie
Circleville Bank, one of the oldest banks in
Ohio, but more probably the dealers of Cin
cinnati have not entirely recovered confi
dence in tlieir bankers since the explosion
of Messrs. Outcalt & Co., some weeks since.
Messrs. Ellis & Morton, and Messrs. Ellis
& Sturgis, succeeding them, have filled a
very important position in the financial
world of Cincinnati, and have done an im
mense business, having had, on some occa
sions, two and a half millions of deposits,
and two millions of discounted paper. It is
understood that the profits of Messrs. E. &
S., for the year ending 30th June, were §600,-
000. This concern has previously gone
throng i several severe i nns, paying every
dollar demanded promptly.
Their liabilities are supposed to be 81,000,-
00O to 81,100,000, including about 8100,000
of exchange running on the New York
house, and their assets are set down at 8E-
406,OUO. A party, well informed in regard
to the matter, speaks of tlieir assets as first
class, and is confident that the house will
pay every tiling. Wc regret to learn that
the senior member of the firm, Mr. Ellis,
who lias been an invalid for some time, was
unable to sustain the excitement of which
his failure induced, and died about noon.
Messrs. Goodman & Co., and Morton & Co.,
have been considered very strong, and have
occupied a highly respectable position, and
their suspension, if true, cannot probably
be disastrous.

Cicinnati, Nov. *9.—Arrison, the man
I accused of -sending the infernal machine to
Mr. AUison’-s house by which both lie and
make frequent sorties.
When the mail left Constantinople on the
16th five steamers had arrived at Balaklava
with those wounded in repelling a great sor
tie from the Russian forts, twenty thousand
strong.
Lord Raglan and Marshal Canrobert had
formally summoned Sebastopol to surren
der, and required that tlie women and child
ren and the sick should be sent away and
that flags should be hoisted upon the hospit
als.
So tar as known, the Russian army is
concentrating on the Upper Belleck, and al
ready nuhibei\s there 45,000 men.
The allied army is divided into siege are'
my and army of observation. The latter
is posted on "the extensive tableland which
seperates Balaklava from Sebastopol, acces
sible only from two points.
The Russian were hovering on the out
side of tlie allies’ positions, and the 7 th they
made a strong demonstration on the north
west extremity of the camp, but were kept
in check. Finally they retired without a
battle.
On the 2d, 5th and 11th of October the
garrison of Sebastopol made sorties and de
stroyed some small work.
On the evening of tlie 5th a convoy of
transports with 4,000 Russians succeeded in
entering Sebastopol.
The allies number 110,000 men at Sebas
topol, and 8,000 additional French troops
were ready to embark from Marseilles on
the 21st, and 8,000 Turks from ‘ Yarna.
Letters say that the allies have 300 guns
in their batteries, and after a few days’ fir
ing an attempt will be made to storm the
garrison which is estimated at 40,000 men.
Admiral Machinkoff, who commanded at
Sinope, is the commandant at Sebastopol.
He has published an address saying that he
will defend it to the last, and that any one
is welcome to shoot him if he does not.
Advices from Constantinople to tlie 13th
say that theRussians had retaken Eupatoria
tlie English garrison of 500 men retiring
with the loss of one gun. This, however,
is denied by the English papers.
The alies have sent a force, under Gener
al Bosquete and Achmet Pacha to Perekeof
to prevent the advance of the Russians.
AUSTRIA AND RUSSIA.
Aftaris look stormy between Russia and
Austria. A great council of war has been
held at Vienna, tit which the Emperor pre
sided. It is reported in connection with
this fact, that Austria has summoned Rus
sia to withdraw from the frontier of Galla-
cia,
Tlie whole Austrian army has been put
on the war footing, and on tlie 26th the gar
rison of Vienna lias orders to be ready to
march in at forty-eight hours’ notice.
Russia in the mentime menaces Austria,
and the Czar has gone to Warsaw.
Large Russian forces are concentrating j
on the Austrian frontiers, and there is but i
little doubt entertained at Vienna that ere j
long there will be actual hostilities between :
the two powers.
AUSTRIA.
Austria has concluded an immense finan
cial operation, by which she has transfered
to a company of capitalists all the railroads
constructed and worked by the government
in Hugary and Bohemia. The company
pays 200,000,000 francs and the government
guarantees5 percent.
PRUSSIA
Austria returned answer to the last des
patch of the Prussian government, repeating
that Austria will adhere inflexibly to the
policy expressed in the note of the 30th of
September. The action of Prussia in regard
to this answer is looked forwithmuch anx
iety.”

Mg Dear Sir:—I have just had the
pleasure of exaniininga very superior
specimen of Dentistry.
A full set of Upper'Teeth inserted
on platina plate with continuous gum of silicious com
pound
The set is of the manufacture of Dr. L. L. Ledbetter
of this place. For beauty of finish, strength & per-
mananc3 r and natural life like apppearance, this pro-
ess is certainly far superior to 'anything I have ever
seen.
At the distance of a few feet, this Job would defy
detection. £o much is it like the teeth and gums of
the Great Architect. Permit me to recommend to
your consideration most favorably Dr Ledbettor’s
claims as a Surgeon Dentist. He is a resident of this
city, permanently located, of high moral and religious
character, and cortaiuly a very superior workman
If you or any of your friends* have any thing to bo
done in his line, do me the favor-to give the Dr., a call
at bis office over V. Ia. Wrpgli's old stand on White
Hull Street.
Yours Respectful!y.

FOR AIL THE PURPOSES OF A
FAMILY PHYSIC.
There has long existed a public demand for at
effective purgative pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This hat
been prepared to meet that demand, and an exten
sivc trial of its virtues has conclusively shown with
what success it accomplishes the purpose designed
It is easy to make a physical pill, but not easy tc
make the best of all pills — one which should have
none of the objections, but all the advantages, of
every other. This lias been attempted here, and
with what success we would respectfully submit tc
the public decision. It has been unfortunate fui
the patient hitherto that almost every'.purgative
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow.
els. This is not. Many of them produce so much
griping pain and revulsion in the system as to more
than counterbalance the good to be derived from
them. These pills produce no irritation or pain,
unless it arise from a previously existing obstruc
tion or derangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any
quantity ; but it is better that any medicine should
be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they are ap
plicable are given on the box. Among the com
plaints which have been speedily cured by them, we
may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ap-
oetite, Listlcssness, Irritability, Bilious Headache,
Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side
and Loins; for, in truth, all these are but the con
sequence of diseased action in the- liver. As an
aperient, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
tiveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrof
ula and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body,
Ulcers and impurity of the blood ; in short, any
and every case where a purgative is required.
They have also produced some singularly suc
cessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Gravel,
Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in the
Back, Stomach, and Side. They should be freely-
taken in tlie spring of the year, to purify the blood
and prepare the system for the change of seasons.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
oowels into Healthy action, and restores the appe
tite and vigor. They purify tlio blood, and, by their
stimulant action oh the circulatory system, reno
vate the strength of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism.
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious derangement exists; but un
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
as every purgative medicine reduces tlie strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason of even-
body; and it is confidently believed this pill will
answer a better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been av;iilable to mankind. YVhen their
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need of a
cathartic medicine.

The County Court of Fayette, Tenn., being thoroughly

Duke Williams to lay the said floor and pave the Court

We know Mr. Williams is a high-minded honorable
man : and we are satisfied the* rock made by him is
substantial, and will stand the test of time. We have
seen it used by Mr. Reed, who is putting up a large ho
