A Good Joke.
A gentleman played off a rich joke on his
better half the other day. Being something
of an epicure, he took it into his head that
he should like to have a first rate dinner.
So he addressed her a note politely infor
ming her that “a gentleman of her acquain
tance—an old and true friend, would dine
with her that day.” As soon as she recei
ved it all hands went to work to get every
thing in order. Precisely at two o’clock she
was prepared to receive her guest. The
house was as clean as a new pin—a sump-
tous dinner was on the table, and she was
arrayed in her best attire. A gentle knock ,
was heard and she started with a palpitating | so in the District of Columbia having been

No platform that the Columbus party
could possibly construct, would in the su

fortunate ascendency of which during three-
fourths of our National career true liberty
and National progress have been secured,
the rights of the States preserved, the Un

and sectionalism defied.”

terms, the right of Congress to interfere
with the subj ect of slavery in the States

“You said a gentleman of my acquain

Entering For the Presidential Race. j
Presidents alNamks.—The probable lead
ing candidates for the next Presidency have
been indicated pretty clearly by the late
Democratic jubilee at Tammany Hall, by
the late Philadelphia National Know Noth
ing Council, and by the late very extraordi
nary omnium gatherum of the native odds
and ends of abolitionism at Cleveland.—
From these lofty sources of authority we
conclude that the following are as likely as
any others to be the great guns for ’56:
Democratic Candidate—Henry A. Wise,
of Virginia.
National K. N.—George Law or Millard
Fillmore.
Mixed Abolition—W. H. Seward or Henry
Wilson.
The bolting of Wilson at Philadelphia
shows that he is shifting for nobody else but
himself. If we mistake not, he bolted at
Philadelphia once before upon the nomina
tion of Gen. Taylor; and ne will be very
apt to bolt even the Seward coalition if it
shall fail to nominate Mr. Wilson for the
succession.—N. F. Herald.

New York, Jane 29, 1855,
The great festivity of tho . “Sangorfeat”
was observed by the Gormans of this city
and their bretheren from all parts of ihe
United States with unusual pomp and re
joicing on Thursday last. Some 20,000 of
these gentle, music-loving people met in the
beautiful grounds known as Elin Park, and
passed the day in a manner which called up
all one has read of German home life.—
The spectacle was one of the most pleasing
I ever witnessed. The day was most pro
pitious—a grateful breeze tempering the
fervor of a cloudless sky. The natural sit
uation of the grounds, sinking into c ool dells
rising into grassy swells, and spreading in
to level stretches, along which the heavy-
foliaged oaks formed green wood vistas,
heightened the picturesqueness of the hun
dreds of groops scattered over them. Silk-

any time, because Russia did not want it,
and have therefore neglected to fortify and
defend it.

day, and have given place to genius and

For Bird Fanciers.—It is not safe to
keep birds in painted wire cages, especially
in warm weather. The paint softens in the
heat, the birds are apt to nibble it, and to
get poisoned. This is a fact, and those hav
ing valuable birds in such cages should re
move them at once.
All these victories are mere affairs of out
posts, but which fritter away the strength
of tbe Allies without given them the least
important advantage. They have brought
the Allies now to the fearful trial of the
months of July and August, when pestilence
must necessarily destroy them by thousands,
when action is impossible, and in action is
destruction. The Russian strength in tbe
Crimea has been increased, as we have
every reason to believe, to an extent equal
to that of the Allies, and their forces out
side of Sebastopol are so concentrated at
fortified points as to be able to keep open
a {communication with Sebastopol, to resist
any attack from the Allies, and to be ready
at the cirtical moment to avail themselvs
of an oppartnnity to strike a decisive blow.
These circumstances are unfavorable to the
peace which tbe Allies expect to conquor
before Christmas. England is fighting for
the preservation of her military prestige,
and as the London" Times urges, for Eng
land to be beaten in the Crimea, is to be
beaten everywhere. We might, for the
sake of our own interests, of the interests of
the world, wish England such a victory as
will enable her to make peace.
Mcrrellites Captured.—The Alligator
(Fla.) Advereiser says: On Tuesday after
noon, eight of the clan of marauders known
as Murrellites, arrived in our town under a
gaurd of a number of citizens of the county,
and were in jail to await their trial at the
ensuing term of court in December next.
This unexpected addition to the number
of our inhabitants created quite a sensation
when their tiruejcharacter was made known.
As far as we can learn from those engaged
in the capture, they are a portion of a band
long infesting the country, who are too in
dolent to work, and whose chief employment
and characteristics are to steal and harbor
negroes, and commit other depredations
somewhat similar to those of the notorious
highwayman from whom the band derives
its name, but whose example they have failed
to imitate on a scale as extensive as that
adopted by the renowned John A. Murrell.
There are now nine of them confined in jail,
two having been placed there a few weeks
since, one of whom was subsequently bailed
out. There is another, we understand, now
on the road to this place, who from inability
to walk, is being brought in a cart.
The leader of this band of tlieives has not
as yet been taken; but we trust that lie will
soon be compelled to share the society of his
companions in guilt.
We think much credit should be accorded
to those who have thus generously and with
considerable personal risk, apprehended
these outlaws, and brought them where they
can be made to experience the penalty of
violating the laws of the land.
The Number of the Know-Nothings.—
i We learn from the last Macon Citizen, that
the latest count of the numbers of the dark-
lantern Order, shows about 30,000 in Geor
gia. This is a modest figure compared to
those loud and boastful pretensions, and
mysterious hints of overwhelming power.
Judging by all the indications we have seen,
this number will be more apt to diminish
than increase, between this and October.
There are 100,000 voters, at least, in Georgia.
Admitting all the Know-Nothings hold on
faithfully to their dark oaths, and to their
organization, which is scarcely possible, and

the incredibly rapid attacks of the French
General. Whatever Pellissier may do, he
will never no nothing. We may expect to
see Sebastopol taken, or the Allies driven
from it. This continued state of unexcit
ed suffering, which the allied armies have
so long endured, will cease to exist. If men
must die Pelissier has wisely determined
that they shall die by the balls and bayo
nets of the enemy. Bold, audacious un
scrupulous, the new French commander in
Chief is a man most likely to have attract
ed the attention of the great Napoleon.—
Tactics and caution have always failed be
fore quick thought and rapid action. This
was the secret of the French Emperor’s
success, and Pelissier seems to have discov
ered and applied the same. This theory of
a merciful war, which in times of peace has
been so much cultivated, explodes on the
battle field, and the successful General is
usually he, who deems it his most impor
tant business to conquer. The savage
ferocity with which Pellissier has been stig
matized, has been characteristic of most of
the great conquerors of the world.
Lectures on the History oF Georgia.
Rev. Mr. White proposes to deliver before
the citizens of Marietta, a course of lectures
on the History of Georgia. A subject so
full of interest ought to insure a general at
tendance of our citizens. Public Lectures,
proposed by competent men, are most excel
lent methods of communicating instruction,
and are apt to make a more lasting impres
sion than the perusal of books. The ap
pearance of the speaker, his earnestness, his
peculiar modes of expression, and other
considerations, all conspire to fix the atten
tion.
Mr. White’s Lectures have, we know, been
prepared with great care, and embrace the
history of Georgia from its first settlement
to the present time. That portion of his
lectures relating to our revolutionary histo
ry, will disclose many facts not known even
to our best informed men. Our youths es
pecially should not fail to attend them.
Cobh County Nominations.
We understand that a Democratic Con
vention held in Marietta on Tuesday, nomi
nated T. H. Moore, Esq., for the Senate,
and A. Manor and S. M. Bradford, Esqs.,
for the House of Representatives.
The same Convention also nominated J.
B. Blackwell for Sheriff, B. Tolleson Ordi
nary, J. M. Barnwell Clerk of Superior
Court, W. W. Carroll Clprk of Inferior
Court, G. Johnson tax colleotor, and J. F.
McClerkey Receiver.
The Fourth In Marietta.
The Declaration of Independence was l oad
by Mayor Robertson, and an Address de
livered in the Court-House by Mr. J. C.
Holmes, which is highly spoken of as a
chaste and able literary production hand
somely delivered.
At the Georgia Military Institute the cel
ebration of the day was began with a sa
lute of thirteen guns. At 11 A. M., Cadet
Harkey read the Declaration, and Cadet
Camp delivered the Address. At the con
clusion of the Exercises there was a salute
of thirty-two guns, after which the Cadets
repaired to the mess hall to partake of the
dinner prepared for the occasion by Mr.
John O. Hill, Steward of the Institute.
Question for Lawyers,-—If the drawer
of s bill finds it lying on the pavement, is
he bound to take it up. j
ernor, have undoubtedly placed him among
the most prominent of the candidates for
nomination for the Presidency. Mr.
Pierce’s friends will not give up his re-elec
tion without a struggle. Mr. Hunter, too,
has long been held up for the position. Mr.
Buchanan’s admirers still remember him.
Mr. Douglas has hosts of friends at his
command. So that, not to mention others,
there is no dearth of names to choose among.
At present we are inclined that Mr. Wise
has the inside track of them all. He seems
to suit the present unsettled politics, and the
inflamed political passions of many, who
regard him as the man to lead on the hosts
of “ anti-Know Nothingism.” His friends,
too, are active and bold, and know how to
work. So, on the whole his chances seem
bright—especially if the old Democratic
creed and organization are to give way to
the simpler faith and more comprehensive
organization, the “anti-Know Nothing par
ty.” Our opinion, however, is that a North
ern man will be chosen.”
[From the Columbus Times & Sentinel.]
The Know Nothing Nominee For Gov
ernor.
The Hon. Garnett Andrews is a resident
of Wilkes county, Ga. He filled the office of
Judge of the Superior Court for some years,
and acquired very great notoriety for a de
cision by which Universalists were preven
ted from giving evidence in a court of jus
tice, on account of their religious belief.—
He would seem to be a fit representative of
a party which would exclude Catholics from
office on account of their religion, and for
eign-born citizens from the polls, on account
of their birth place.
We are not aware that he ever held any
E olitical office. At any rate, the fame of
is political acts has never reached us, and
we do not know where to find them. On
the 31st August, 1850, he wrote a letter
which was published in the Columbus En
quirer, on the 8th October, 1850. By the
kindness of the conductors of that journal
we have been favored with a re-perusal of
this remarkable State paper. In these
troublous times, when section is arrayed
against section, and the word resistance is
upon the tongue, we had some curiosity to
know how Hon. Garnett Andrews felt du
ring a similar period of our history. We
regret to say that the sentiments contained
in his letter satisfy us that he is the last
j man in Georgia who ought to be trusted
with power in this momentous crisis of our
affairs. There was a class of Union men in
that day who differed with us as to the re
medy for the evils with which the South
was threatened; but they looked the North
sternly in the face, and in the solemn lan
guage of the 4th resolution of the Georgia
Platform, pledged the State of Georgia “ to
resist even, as a last resort, to a disruption
of every tie that bound her to the Union,”
if the Congress of the United States infring
ed certain specified constitutional rights of
the South. We thought the time had come
for Georgia to act; we think so still; but
Georgia decided differently, and we, as loy
al citizens, submitted to her decision. We
then took our stand upon the fighting line
of the Georgia Platform, and now willing to
lock shields with all men, without regard to
former divisions, and die on that line.
Is Hon. Garnett Andrews on that line ?
Was he ever on that line. Our only means
of forming an opinion upon this interesting
subject, is his aforesaid letter, from which
we cull the following extracts : “ It has not
yet been shown, or hardly attempted to be
shown, that disunion would remedy any
wrong, or give security to any right of the
South. So far from it, it would remedy no
evil, and would destroy the main security
for slavery.”
The Georgia Platform men did not think
so. Read the 4th resolution and judge for
yourselves.
But hear the Know Nothing nominee
again : “But, says rampant chivalry, shall
we always submit to aggression, outrage
and inequality ? No. When an act of ag
gression shall be committed that shall in
fringe our rights, I would recommend an
appropriate resistance. What appropriate
resistance is, we are not so clearly informed
It is not disunion, however, in the opinion
of Judge Andrews. Hear him again:
“ I consider a dissolution no remedy for,
or resistance to anything. If the Wilmot
Proviso were passed”—he would resist even,
as a last resort, to a disruption of every tie
that binds Georgia to the Union ? No, Sir.
“I would advise,” says Judge Andrews, “a
colonization of the country by force of arms,
as a better remedy than a dissolution of the
Union.”
But we must close this sickening record.
We are sorry Garnett Andrews was nomi-
nited by even the Know-Nothings. In the
forcible language of Mr. Webster, “it was
a nomination not fit to be made” in this cri
sis of our affairs. We would be under many
obligations to bis supporters if they would
ask him “ what course he would pursue as
Governor of Georgia if Kansas were refused
admission into the Union because of slave
ry
The Mamelon Tower.—That this tower,
which is said to have been recently captured
by the allies, is far from being indispensable
to the defence of Sevastopol, is evident from
the statement of an army correspondent of
Blackwood’s Magazine for June. The cap
ture of the Mamelon, at that time not at
tempted, he says would be “ but a step to
wards the Redan and Round Tower, each
formidable achievements, and still the town
would remain for a separate siege.”
In the same article, the writer speaks of
one battery in the Russian defences, com
manding another, in a sequence of as many
links as that of the “House which Jack
built.—Richmond Dispatch.
St. Louis, June 28.—Advices from New
Mexico to the 30th of May have been re
ceived. On the 29th, Col. Founleroy attack
ed the camp of the Utohs, twenty miles north
of Breucha Pass, killing 40 and making 6
prisoners—also captured their camp equip
age, with a number of horses, sheep and
provisions. The same command, on the 1st
of May, attacked a camp of 35 Utahs, in
Shomatch valley, and killed two and wound
ed four—also capturing their provisions,
horses, Ac., and the chief of the band. The
command returned to Fort Massachusetts
on the 9th.
St. Louis, -June 28.—Mr. Brooks, the
aurenaut, rondo a balloon ascension to-day.
The wind was high and nothing has been
heard of him since.
Indepen lci 21 1 .—The Salt Lake
mail for May -Jane arrived here last
night. The mail party reports the Indians
numerous around the Black Hills, and they
were much alarmed on account of the move
ments of the United States troops, and were
desirous of peace. They propose to give up
the murderers of the mail party last fall.
The reports of so many persons having
been killed by the Indians are all mere fab-
rications.
Courageous Chinaman.—A brutal attack,
says the Calaveras Chronicle, was made by
three men on a Chinaman living near Grea-
sertown, a few days ago. They had asked
John for water, and while he was in the act
of getting it for them, one _ of the party,
named ffm. Link, drew a pistol and fired
at him, the ball inflicting a slight wound in
the left wrist. John instantly dropped the
cup, drew a revolver, (aid shot funk dead.
His comrades fled. The Chinaman was ar
rested, and after a hearing of the caae, ac
quitted.
glistened in the open glades of the groves,
and all about was a true democracy of the
high-born and the lowly, rich and poor,
male and female, fraternizing on terms of
the most delightful equality, chattering and
laughing in holiday abandon. Now the
whole mass dissolves into what might bo
family groups, for the affectionate concern
each manifests for all the rest who gather
about a basket of lunch lying at full length
upon ihe grass, or raising skillful voices in
some dear old song of “Vaterland anon
they cluster, like bees, around some orator
who makes all eyes tearful with sweet and
tender remembrances of ancestral homes
far beyond the sea, and who as he descends
from the rostrum, is bourn about on the
shoulders of his enthusiastic hearers, and
saluted with many kisses from the hairy
lips of the men, and many smiles from the
frank-harted German maidens then in a
remote part rises swelling music from a
band playing in the shade, to whose strains
other instruments reply, until the whole
green is ringed about with a chain of melo
dy. But the great feature of the day was
lager beer. I had heard much and seen
something of the gusto and capacity of
these people for this beverage; but the re
ality of this experience so overtopped all my
former notions as to keep me perpetually
astonished. Lager beer in mouldy casks,
in pewter cups, in glass mugs, in immense
ox horns tipped with silver and slung under
the arm by a tasselled cord, with massive
silver goblets with convivial inscriptions,
in great stoups turned and hollowed from
the hickory tree with the rind left on—la
ger beer, every where lager beer. It was
■ipped, tasted, poured, swilled. Friends—
and all were friends—greeted each other
with Lager beer, discoursed over l.agcr
Beer, and made mute and moist farewells
in Lager Beer. The women partook equally
with the men, concealing pint cup after pint
cup under their delicate belts with com
mendable dexterity, and many a Dutch
swain caught the blue eye of his beloved
maid gleaming with unwonted kindness
upon him over the froth of a brimming
tankard- But be it honorably said in praise
of Lager Beer it did not work tho riotous
and noisy results which usually follow
more heady potations. All the exercises
of the numerous assembly passed off in the
utmost harmony, and the broad full moon
never beamed upon a happier procession
shan wound its way from Elin Park on Tues
day evening.
How absurd are the old woman fears of
Know Nothingism, which would crimp and
pinch the rights of a noble race like the
Germans. There are no more intelligent,
peaceable, industrious, patriotic citizens
of our country than they, and" my heart
throbbed with pride when I heard their
bands of music, after some old German airs,
simultaneously strike up “Hail Columbia.”
The police force detailed to preserve order
on the ground were actually the noisiest and
most ill behaved men present. They drank
more strong liquor, swaggered more, and by
their manner and words encouraged rowdy
ism to a greater extent than any equal
number of persons on the ground. Just at
dusk, in wandering through the old stone
hotel situated in the centre of th8 Park, oc
cupied for the most part by the ladies of
festival for withdrawing rooms, I stumbled
over a noisy party of some twenty Yankees,
half of whom, perhaps, were policemen.—
Glasses clinked, rum flowed freely, songs
were sung, slang compliments bandied
about, and finally the drunkest member of
the party proposed a motion. “Gentlemen,”
said he, “ this{is a free country and I go in
for every man doing as he d d pleases.
Now, gentlemen, all on you who is in favor
of rum now and forever say ‘ aye.’ ” I was
interested to notice every “ star ” present
gave a most lusty response and that not a
voice nor a hiccup was given in the nega
tive. Temperance men in moral districts,
full of faith in the power of right and Fer
nando Wood, what do you imagine the Pro
hibitory Law will be worth in this city
when it depends to a great extent upon such
cattle for its enforcement ?
“ One more unfortunate,
Weary of breath,” Ac.,
would seem to be the burden of oar daily
songs now-a-days, if we were to judge by the
number of suicides which have startled the
community for the last week. And all for
love! The course of true love must run
very roughly at these times, to cause so
slight a valuation to be set on life. Of the
half dozen self-murders which have occur
red here during the last five days, that one
in Brooklyn, where the lovers concluded to
“ shuffle off this mortal coil ” together, and
to enter on an eternity in each others arms,
is the most curious and perhaps instructive.
With all the due reverence for the solemn
character of an event so shocking as such
a death, we cannot help being amused by
the movements of some parties, and the
awkward “ fix ” they find themselves in.—
A “ young and interesting female is found
dead in a romantic way, with her lover in
her arms, and an empty bottle of poison by
her side—on his father’s premises. She isen-
tirely unknown to anybody, and consequent
ly her remains are sent to the Dead House.
But there is a mystery hanging over her,
which awakens the sympathy of all the
gentle ladies and tender gentleman in this
neighborhood, and straightway they are
highly indignant and noisy. She may be a
princess—who knows? She may bo any
body you choose to fancy her, and the
imagination of these sympathetic individ
uals is highly prolific. Well, the excite
ment waxes strong—the afflicted family of
the dead young man are insulted and de
nounced as inhuman—large sums of mo
ney are raised to defray the expenses of a
magnificent funeral, and a gentleman’s
house is generally thrown open for the re
ception of the body of the “beautiful unfor
tunate” young lady. The funeral ceremo
nies proceed, and after the eugolistic dis
course, pronounced by a most reverend di
vine, (all involved in mystery) the remains
deposited in a rich sarcophagus, inscribed
“ to the unknown,” aud decorated with gar
lands, are laid to rest in Cypress Hills.
All this is highly proper, and the romance
of it is pretty, but the poor family of Mr.
Gustin are made to feel the weight of their
sorrow,- doubled by the insults of their
neighbors. In the mean time the Coroner
does a verv cruel things—he ascertains be
yond a.doubt, who “the unknown” is, and
dissipates by a word, all the fairy net work
of fancy and speculation. Her name is
Sarah Williams, and she has been well
known for years as a prostitute of Duane
street. I need not pronounce the “mortal”
(as Burton calls it) on all this. Let each
one read for himself;, but we do think
here that the ^aforesaid virtuous peo
ple of Brooklyn, look rather foolish at
this distance.
The fine old country games of cricket and
base, are growing to be very fashionable
here, and the practice of them, promises to
improve the physique of that portion of
Young America, who find themselves con
fined by their business too much in doors.
The numerous clubs at this tine season of
the year, indulge in frequent excursions^
and on some chosen tilting ground, with
their friends and sweethearts as spectators,
pursue the manly sport with as much spirit
as animated the ancient tourney.
Scenes Within Sebastopol.
The Austrian Military Zeitung, contains
an interesting letter from Sebastopol, under
date May 13. The following is a sum
mary :—“In spite of all the efforts which the
enemy have made, our bulwarks stand as
fast as ever. Long before the bombard
ment began, the Journals of the West in
formed us that our walls and forts were
speedily to be put to a new proof. This
made us redouble our precautions, and we
bore firmly the truly murderous fire (hollis-
chee) which threatened all with destruction.
Nevertheless, thousands were devoted to
death, and it made one shudder to see the
Elborus (the steamboat) pass every two
hours during the bombardment, from tbe
south to the north, with so many wounded
that she could scarcely carry them. While
standing in Bastion No. 4—the bastion
which suffered most of all—I forgot the dan
ger to which I was exposed in admiration
of the cool and stoical conduct of our sailors.
They fell and expired without a cry, though
racked with the most fearful agonies.
The Southern side of our town has suf
fered most severely, and it is hardly to be
recognized—500 houses have been totally
destroyed, and grass is growing on their
ruins. Tbe beautiful theatre no longer
exists. Though the upper districts of the
town are not so much damaged, yet there is
not a single house to be seen that does not
bear manifest traces of the bombardment.—
The streets are every where ploughed up by
shot, and the pavement is totally destroyed;
while at every corner stand whole pyramids
cf the enemy’s cannon-balls and exploded
shells, which were daily collected before the
opening of the fire. In many streets, five
or six such pyramids are to be seen, each of
them from 8 feet to 18 feet high. Never
theless, business is continued, and booths
are opened for the sale of goods. Prices,
however, are enormously raised, and sugar
costs one silver rouble (2s) per lb. The
supply of meat is more than abundant, but
bread is exceedingly scarce. Tho streets
are filled with people, aud crowds of chil
dren run to and fro, assisting at the con
struction . of barricades, and pelting each
other with balls of clay. Our life in Se
bastopol is agreeable to us, for use is a se
cond nature. The greatest activity prevails
in tbe harbor of Skaterin, where cannon
balls, powder, facincs, sacks, and provisions
are landed in astounding quantities, as they
are forwarded from tbe northern forts. In
a word, neither the thunder of the enemy’s
cannon, nor the siege of Sebastopol, is suff
ered to disturb us any longer, wc mourn
over our adversaries, who are shedding their
blood without result before our brazen walls.
We read many absurd statements about the
condition of the besieged; but the absurd-
est of all is, undoubtedly, the news that we
suffer from want of supplies, and that hun
dreds and hundreds of us are daily cut off
by death—of all which no trace is to be
seen.”
Kansas.
The Squatter Sovereign of June 12, has
some remarks in reply to the Washington
(Know Nothing) Organ, from which we
quote the following:
The Organ ought to know that since the
Legislature has been elected, and after it
meets, Gov. Reeder will be as powerless for
f ood or evil in Kansas, as the Organ itself.
To one, save some crazy fanatic like the N.
Y Tribune, expects any “civil war” or dis
turbance of any kind in Kansas. Now that
law is to take the place of anarchy, we will
f et along as quietly as the', people of any
tate in the Union. It is probable that at
first the noisy abolitionists may grumble a
little, but after we work them a short time
on our roads of impudence in talking, eve
ry thing will go on like clock work. As to
the idea of the President’s sending troops
here to back Gov. Reeder, or assuming to
declare the election void, we presume, no
man who has any pretentions to common
sense, ever thought of it seriouely for a mo
ment.
Discord Among tlie “Organs.”
An amusing fight is at present going on
between the New York Herald, and the
American Organ, published at Washington
City, both advocates of Know Nothingism.
The former warmly espouses the claims of
George Law, as the Know Nothing candi
date for the presidency, and the latter as
bitterly denounces him. The Herald com
mences its very flattering notice of the Or
gan in this wise: “A silly paper, publish
ed in Washington, calling itself the Know
Nothihg Organ, and God knows it knows
bat little, pitches into George Law” in the
following manner. The Herald proceeds
to charge Yespasin Ellis, the editor of the
Organ with wire working and the manufac
ture of eossip for the purpose of injuring
George Law’s claims while in Philadelphia.
The Organ in its reply intimates that George
Law’s money (he is said to be worth over
a million of dollars) is now being freely
used for the purpose of advancing his pros
pects. It proceeds to add, “we take occa
sion to say to the Satanic” (such is the beau
tiful epithet it applies to the Herald) “that
we shall deal in its gossip, should we here
after see fit to unfold the chicanery and cor
ruptions practiced in Philadelphia during
the year 1855, by politicians. We say fur
ther, that not one tithe of ichat occurred at
Philadelphia, in June, 1855, has yet been
told.” Wonder If any of George Law’s
money was used there? The Herald re
plies, by unfolding as the cause of the Or
gan's hostility to George Law, the fact that
the latter refused to lend any of his money
to the editor of the Organ, and that now
he has turned upon those who refused to
assist him. Keep up the fight, and let the
public enjoy the fun. We want to know
something of the chicanery and corruption,
not one tithe off which has yet been told.—
Const.
A Sea Captain in Trouble.—Captain
Goodrick, of the Grace Darling, who, the
abolitionists allege, decoyed five colored
persons on board liis vessel at Norfolk,
promising to bring them to Boston for a
price, took their money and then betrayed
them, is a citizen of Manchester, Mass.—
The Boston papers have discovered this fact,
and are after him with “ a sharp stick.”—
The captain, who is now in Boston, is being
served with tho usual course of effigy burn
ing, hand-bill posting, &c., aud stands n
fair chance of being finally ridden on a rail.
The Next Congress.—Tho members of
Congress, so far elected, may be summed up
thus : Whole number chosen, 161; Whigs,
59; Administration Democrats, 3 ; Repub
licans, 37; Know * Nothings, 27 ; of those
understood to be Anti-Nebraska, 119; Ne
braska, 41. Jn the present oonfused and
distraoted state of parties it is almost im
possible to make any classification of the
House of Representatives that shall be
completely accurate and reliable. Some
members were chosen as Republicans who
are also understood to belong to the. Know
Nothing organization.

H. G. Farrell’s Arabian liniment Tri
umphant over Disease.
WE DAILY HEAR of the most astonishing cures
being effected.by that great and popular medicine,
the genuine h’ G. FARRELL’S ARABIAN LINIMENT,
and we can truly say, from our own knowledge, that no
medicine ever discovered has performed the same won
derful cures, that it has, both in man and beast, and it
is equally good for both, which makes it so truly va!
uable. It is therefore hailed by the suffering as tbe
greatest blessing of tho age, and no one would ever al
low himself to be without this sovereign balm, who
had once witnessed its magic power over disease, and
its wonderful potency in relieving pain, however severe,
in a few minutes’ time. We earnestly desire you to
call upon the agent, who will furnish you, free of charge
a small book containing, besides other valuable infor
mation, a large list of certificates from many of the
most respectable persons, of cures effected by this cel
ebrated medicine, which surely are enough to convince
the most sceptical of its transcendent virtues. We m
tice several certificates of rheumatism cured after the
patient had suffered every thing but death for five to 20
years. Also cases of paralysis, or loss of use of the
limbs, where the flesh had withered, leaving nothing
apparently hut dried skin and bone, presenting so hor
rid, a spectacle that their FRIENDS LOOKED UP0K
THEM APALLED while physicians pronounced them
BEYOND ANY HUMAN EFFORT to relieve. It is the
most efficacious remedy known for burns, sprains,
wounds, bruises, chilblains, neuralgia, toothache, bite-
of insects and reptiles, sore throat, sore or weak eye?,
tumors, sun pain, etc.; etc.; and is used with unbound
ed success in most of the ailments of horses and cattle,
such as sweeny, farcy, sprains, bruises, wounds, stiff
neck aud joints, lameness, swellings, galls or chafes,
sore eyes, partial blindness, etc. If used iu the begin
ning of fistula, poll-evil, ringbone and spavin, it will in
variably stop their further progress. Every family
hould keep this valuable medicine on hand, ready for
any emergency.
Look out for Counterfeits!
The public are cautioned against another counter
feit, which has lately made its appearance, called ff
B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dangerous of
