But 1 which is thirty per cent, more than is sanc- in the main this dignified press is an hoii- tinned by law. Your predecessors, doubt- est grumbler, and when it is well answered . less, thought otherwise, and discharged their it too well understands the force of a gom^ . duties conscientiously and according to the argument to go on prating when ^tlic-re is nothing more to be said. The President’ veto message is ho ample in its historical detail, and it* deductions are so just and inevitable, that now the Inielligenrer !ia~ ghen up the “ Spoliation question,” and taken itself to its old battered formula about tbe evils of the ono man power, “ its modi fication and abridgement, if not its entire abrogation.” Onr national sins, of cotninis- iie<t of their judgment, and I am, by no means, desirous to underrate the services generally which they rendered to our city, ham well aware, too, how much easier it is t> dud fault with the acts of public officer? : han to serve the public as such, to the entire satisfaction of nil. But sixty-five cents on tite one hundred dollars is pretty heavy fnr •a city tax : and. whether heavy or light, if i' i> illegal it ought not to be levied. Then sion are getting to be so many, and so deep j le, t,:i e.iqiuie by what authority it has been dyed, that we fear the only political virtue levied. that will be left in us at all. will be when { The 13th Section of the Act of 1847 au- we ceaso to do anything whatever.

As yet,and it may "i trad:, ior the purpose of making improve- be for many years to come, it may continue [ meats in and about the city,and taking and to be the case, the person of the President j holding road stock. Then came the Act of will be inaccessible to most of the corrupt j 1852, giving “full power and authority to influences that now find such easy approach to all the subordinate agencies of our Gov ernment. It is on this comparative exemp tion from temptation, that our trust in a Presidential veto is founded. For our part, we had j'ust as soon have the people lapse into a pure Democracy at once, and assem ble at the ring of the bell in the market place to decide questions of public weal, as to leave our federal legislation entirely to the two Houses of Congress. And wc would levy a tax of not exceeding one half of one per ecu’, upon the value of all (he property ” in Atlanta, “of whatever kind, which is or may be subject to taxation by the laws of this State,” and repealing “all laws and parts of laws militating against this Act.” Now, I-contend that this last act contains an express prohibition to tax any property more than one half of one per cent. The expression-—not exceeding one half of one per cent.—must clearly means that the tax infinitely prefer to see the vote of the federal j (U1 property altogether shall not exceed that legislature taken by Slates, allowing in both branches an equal vote to each S r .ate, than to see the powers of the numerical majority increased one jot or tittle. M c may be wrong in saying that our system of taxation by customs, and the exclusion of an cqttr. 1 vote between the States in the House o: Representatives, were the two great blun ders made in framing our Constitution: but if wo are, the practical workings of our Federal system do not prove it. As things are going in these days, we look for “wis dom, moderation ard justice, ’ in our cuun- e, though the Cuuncil may, perhaps, ap propriate the sum collected to the various objects contemplated by the charter, accord ing to their discretion. The powers of corporate bodies are usu ally arranged into three classes: First.— Those powers which are necessarily inci dental to tho very existence of the corpora tion, without any express legal provision.— This class, however, has become, in these days, practically obsolete, inasmuch as it is now customary to specify all these powers n tho charter. Hence we may confine our oils, in no inverse ratio to tho number of the ! (inquiries to the second and third classes of men that are called on by the people to dis pense these virtues. Prentice of the Louisville Journal, Messrs. Davis Thompson, and F. P. Red mond are both out in cards, which wc find in the Memphis Appeal, and they say things of the old Editorial Joker that arc tart and hard to take. Prentice said of Thompson, j that he had been very inveterate against ; him, “but he (Thompson) was recently in- , dieted at Little R ick for a penitentiary of- • fence, and if he had not precipitately lied j he would, probably, ere this have received ! his sentence.” It made us laugh on leading ; Thompson’s explanation of this charge, to j see that tho "penitentiary” offence was ti;<- i hearing a note from a friend of Thompson | to Prentice, which Prentice refused on a>- j count of “conscientious scruples.” This, to j our minds, is one of the must finished in , stances of what logicians call “suppie-sii j veri,” and a heautifid illustration of the \ fact that a man may lie barely by telling • the naked truth, lie e Prentice stripped the j fair Goddess too naked altogether. Redmond says: " That to utter a s’,an jet ; on the base paltroon who was ridden on n , rail for defamation of females was a task which even the father of lies liiiiueli »:ou!<i . not accomplish.” What a pity it is ihut wc are compelled to construe fine vcir-c? by the light of the characters that compose them. To read some tilings that Prentice has wri - ' ten in the last twenty years, one would think ! that he would have been mightily out ot ' plat e, straddling a sharp rail that was mev- j jtig about with the ends of it resting on two j men’s shoulders. Boston, Fell. £0.—The hearing of the pe- | t'tions for the removal of Judge Luring | was held before the Legislature committee j this ufertioon. It was contended by the I counsel for the petitioners, J. Webb. Jr., j Wendell Phillips and C. M.

New York, Feb. 21.—The steamer Baltic has arrived with one week’s later news .atin Europe. Her dates from Liverpool are o Saturday, the 10th iest. The Baltic left Liverpool on the afternoon f the 10th. She arrived out at 2J o’clock at the afternoon of the 5th. The steamer ■ity of Manchester, from Philadelphia, ar- -ived out on the same day, and was taken ip by the British government to earry roops to the Crimea. The screw steamer Glasgow arrived in the jlvde on the 10th. Lord Palmerston has accepted the Pre miership, and has formed a cabinet. The new Cabinet is constituted thus:— lbeinier, Lord Palmerston; War, Lord Panniure: Foreign, Earl Cla-endon ; Home. Sidney Herbert; Colonial, Sir .George Grey: exchequer, W.

There is Very little other news of impor- ance. The affairs in the Crimea are un changed. There is a report of a battle between the Russians and the Turks on the Danube, in which the Turks are said to have been vic torious. There is also a report of mutiny among tue Zouaves in the Crimea, and that 400 had been sent as prisoners to Constantinople. Marshal Canrobert reports the death of Captains Bentor and Castelman during a sortie by the Russians on the night of the 14th. As previously reported, Menschikoff has gone northward. Tho Russians were con stantly making sorties. Supplies were reaching the British camp in abundance, and siege works were advanc ing. The army was, however, still sickly. Frosty nights, with mild, fine days, pre vailed. Tho latest official despatches from Lord Raglan are to the 23d and 24th. Both men tion an improvement in the weather, and speak oheeringlv of further prospects. The latter says: We resume our work before the-town with renewed activity.

In the reconstruction of tho cabinet Lords Derby Lansdowne, John Russell and Clar endon, were successively sent for by the Queen, but all failed to form a cabinet, when Lord Palmerston was called in and he suc ceeded. In parliament explanations were made by the different statesmen who had failed to form cabinets. After the new cabinet had been formed nearly £3,000,000 sterling were voted for war purposes.

Telegraphic dispatches to the 13th of Jan uary from the Crimea are of a like charac ter. A dispatch from Admiral Birat says the French batteries had received orders to be ready and re-open their fire on the city, and for some days the Russians had ceased to make sorties. It is said the preparations for the assault are commenced. The Russian army was in want of sup plies. In sorties made on the 23d great los3 was sustained by the French. The reputed rumor of a mutiny among the Zoaves is not credited. It is said they demanded a retreat from tho Crimea. There 13 a report of a battle on tho Dan ube from an attempt of the Russians to re enter the Dobrudscha—no date given. RUSSIA.

Jan 20 1855 RH Johnston, Sparta. dAwtf mstke the be a t of all pills— one which should liavt ! none of the objections, but all the advantages, of j every other. This has been attempted here, ant* I with what success we would respectfully submit tc ; the public decision. It has been unfortunate foi | the patient hitherto that almost every purgative j medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow- ' eis. 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 pais, unless it arise from a previously existing obstruc tion er derangement in the bowels. Being purely | vegetable, no h.trm can arise from their use in any j quantity ; but it is better that any medicine should 1 be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their j use in the several diseases to which thev are ap- j piic ible are given on the box. Among the com- i plaints which have been speedily cured by them, we j mav mention liver Complaint, in its various forms ! ?i Jaundice. Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ap- j wtitc, Listlessness, Irritability, Bilious Headache, i iiil-'ous Fever. Fever and Agile, Pain in the Side j ipd l.iiius; for, in truth, all these are hut the con- j seqtietice of diseased action in the liver. As an ' ■ peric.nt, they afford prompt and sure relief in Cos- tness. Piles, Colic. Dysentery, Humors. Scrof- tr.-l Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body. ''leers and impurity of ti c blood ; in short, any md everv case where a purgative is required. They hare also produced some singularly suc cessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy. Gravel, Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in the Back, Stomach, aud Side. They should he freely J taken in the spring of the year, to purify the blood j md prepare the system for the change of seasons, j Au occasional dose stimulates the stomach and ; Dowels into healthy action, and restores the appe- ! tite and vigor. They purify the blond, and, by their j stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno- j v; te tin- strength n! rbe bmlv. and restore the j wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism j Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even ; though no serious derangement exists; but un- , necessary dosing should never be carried too far, j as every purgative medicine reduces Hie strength, | when taken to execs-. The thousand cases in which | a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but i DENTAL they suggest themselves to the reason of every I nody; and it is confidently believed this pill will answer a better purpose than any tiling which has hitherto been available to mankind. When their virtues are once known, the public will no longer doubt what remedy to employ when in need ol a cathartic medicine. GENERAL ADVERTISEMENTS^! t’AHU A Me v.
