Navy Department has ordered a. supply of
such clouting to be distributed among the
East Indies, African and Gulf Squadrons.—
Fabrics of the same kind have been freely
introduced into the military service:
Six pea jackets, made of gutta percha
fabric, were bailed in the same manner as
the cloth clothing for the navy, under a
pressure of thirty tons. They were then
placed over a steam boiler in the yard, and
remained for sixteen days subject to an ave
rage temperature of 190degrees, at times as
high as 212 degrees. On examination, the
garments were found in the same state as
when packed. There was no adhesion of the
folds, nor any decomposition of the gutta
percha. One jacket was dripped in water,
rolled up and sewed in the corners, (but not
pressed) and subjected to the samp neat for
three days. On examination this also was
found uninjured.

Naturalization.
Amid much abstract reasoning, always un
certain, too often specious and sophistical, an in
quiry into the past, and the development of some
of the facts bearing upon this question,' if faith
fully performed, will he certainly interesting.—
Those three propositions we conceive, ure abun-
dantlv proven by the facts of history. Many
nations have'bcen benefited by incorporating into
the body of their citizens, individuals who were
foreigners born. Many have be-11 hopelessly
ruined by the exclusion of foreigners from thei.
limits. Many have been injured by receiving
within their boundaries foreigners to whom they
denied the rights of citizens. Nations, in many
respects, resemble individuals, in nothing more
than in this : the requirement by each of extra
neous aid in the management of their affairs. The
wisest man profits by the advice of each individual
witli whom he may come in contact. The wisest
nations have eagerly sought the assistance of all,
of whatever age or people, who were capable of
beneficially bestowing it. Rome was indebted for
her wonderful success, and the not less wonderful
preservation of her empire, to tho continual system
of creating citizens. The nation, which at one time
had beeu arrayed in arms against her State, was
afterwards incorporated with her people, and gave
her leaders for her armies, senators and consuls.
So long as these remained a people separate from
tho Romans, with whom they might connect them
selves, the empire flourished; when such a state of
affairs ceased to exist, it fell. When Italy could
no longer protect herself, from Brittan, Gaul, and
the Danubian provinces, sprang a hardy race of
warriors, glorying in the name and rights of Ro
man citizens, who, for centuries, extended and up
held the empire of their former conquerors. The
greatest Generals, Statesmen end Orators of the
crnpiro, have had their birth outside the walls of
Some: many of them beyond the province cf
Italy. From the time the infant colony made its
first conquest, to the fall of Constantinople, a
period of near two thousand years, the Roman
empire, partially or entirely, was extended and
protected by foreigners. The true principle upon
which wise nations have ever acted, has been to
use whatever material of strength presented itself.
Say, one of the greatest of political economists,
considers the acquisition of a citizen the acquisi
tion of a treasure: it was a deduction made from
the history of the most prosperous nations that have
ever existed. Constantinople was for years, de
fended by the Varangian Guards, a band of Eng
lish and Danish adventurers. It is a fact that
most of the Austrian Generals and Statesmen,
through a period marked with one continual ad
vance to power, have been foreigners; and the
Turkish arms, throughout the present war with
Russia, have been mainly directed by individuals
born without ber limits. Napoleon stopped not.
to inquire into the birth place or race of tho indi
vidual to whom he delegated power. A Corsican
himself on the throno of France, he recognized
merit in the man, whether he came from France
or from Poland—whether he was a Jew ora Chris
tian. The success of Russia may be traced to
that policy, which has collected within hcrseil
learned and Ekilful men from every quarter of tho
globe, and to the constant infusion of vigor into
her body, by extending her sway over foreign peo
ple. Let us look to England which bas been oftei.
cited as the model of an exclusive government.—
For a long period of time has England drawn her
poets and her men of letters, her orators, her
statesman and her warriors, from the Celtic races
of Ireland and Scotland. Yet England is to a
certain extent exclusive, and England presents no
model which we should wish to copy. It wore
idle for us to discuss the cause of these benefits
which have invariably followed to a nation, from
the introduction and incorporation of foreigners
into it. This much, however, we may be allowed
to say: that foreign adventurers, as a class, are
possessed of more than an ordinary degree of
mental and physical vigor; the fact that an indi
vidual leaves his home to seek his fortune else
where argues in that individvual an extraordinary
degree of energy; and energy in her citizens, is
equivalent to power in tho Government. While
such has beeu the course of the most prosperous
nations with regard to foreigners, let ns examine
the result of that policy which refuses all foreign
assistance, and confines the care and defence of
the Government to its native born citizens.—
Passing by China and Japan, we will make an in
quiry into the condition of Spain. Spain dates
her ruin to the expulsion of the Moors and Jucs.
Prior to that time, she stood foremost in the world,
in arts, anus and agriculture ; but =h« de
prived herself of her Moorish subjects, cut herself
loose from the world, and undertook alone the care
and protection of her affairs, she sunk into a state
of inanity worse than the barbarism from whence
she sprang. The .Moors as they were then situa
ted were unquestionably dangerous; the wiser
course would have been to incorporate them with
in the body of the Spanish people. If tho history
of the past is a light by which to guide oursteps in
the future, it points to no more certain course than
this: that tho policy of a good Government is to
collect and make use of all possiblo means ol
enorgy.
It is a deplorable state ol affairs when a nation
sinks so low as to be governed exclusively by for
eigners, but not less weak is that Japanese poli
cy, which rejects all merit unless native born. “A
good man is nowhero to bo rejected, the world has
need of his services, and happy is the nation which
can command them,” has been the enlightened max
im of every successful government. In opposition
to this system of naturalization it has been urged
that the individual can never feel for his adopted
country the same reverential lovo that he bears
for the home of his birth and childhood, and that
to place foriegners in power is to place govern
ment in danger. History supports no such theo
ry. The fact that an individual forsakes his na
tive country and her institutions argues conclu
sively that ho lovos another country and other in
stitutions better. Man is not a fixture on the
soil, but a free aud intelligent being who, from
tho various political communities around him, se
lects that best suited to his condition. Refugees
and the children of refugees have been among the
best citizens that any nation has had. Tho for
eign legion has never been last in the battle, and
foreign statesmen have been among the mostskill-
ful and faithful that have ever guarded the affairs
of a government. Wc come now to the third and
most important point in the argument. Most im
portant because bearing distinctly upon the policy
of the American party on the subject of foreign
emigration. Their design, if we correctly under
stand it, is to repeal the naturalization laws
without directly excluding emigrants from our
shores, thus introducing into our midst sever
al hundred thousand persons annually, who are and
who must remain aliens in the government. If it
is true that naturalized foreigners have ever been
among the best citizens of a government, it is
none the less true that a political division, based
upon a dcstinction of races, bas been fraught with
the worst danger to the State where it existed.—
As a complete illustration of this fact, we will cite
a history universally known. With the Scottish
people, since the Union, the English government
has had no troubles, for the Scots have en
joyed with the English equal political rights
and privileges; while the Irish, on the contrary,
deprived of these same rights by reason of their
religion, have borne towards England a deadly and
implacable hostility, which has burst, on every oc
casion, into open and destructive warfare. Yet
the Irish, in comparison with the Scots, as their
past history proves, have never been a factions or
a turbulent race.
Among the other causes which have been as
signed for the decline and fall of the Roman em
pire is the revolt and ravages of her slaves. These
were persons of the same race with their masters,
educated and intelligent, and burning with the
accumulated hatred of centuries. Whenever oc
casion served their purpose, eithor by joining nn
invading army or themselves erecting the stand
ard of revolt, they failed not to avenge their
wrongs, real or imaginary, by devoting to ruin
tho empire of their masters. If these things be
gan the decline and hastened the fall of the empire,
it is equally true that the first fatal repulse that
met her arms originated from a similar cause.—
The Emperor Volesius had introduced within his
dominions a large multitude of Goth, who flying
from the pursuing Huns had craved his protec
tion. Instead of distributing theso throughout
his empire or attempting ta conciliate their favor,
he confined them within a narrow country, where,
deprived of their arms and political privileges,
they wero degraded by wrong and suffering from
tho caste and condition of men, until at length,
nerved by desperation, they burst their barriers,
annihilated two Roman armies, and opened the
way for, tbs conquest of Alsric and Atttila. It
is needless to enumerate instances. Whenever
history presents a state of affiurs similar to that
contemplated by the American party, we find the
class thus deprired of their pol-.ieal privileges,
either a degraded or a dangerous one. That the
few iureign refugees, who have ,i different times
made their homes in England aud elsewhere, do
noi fail within either of these c nditions, is suffi
ciently explained on the groti-ul of their extraor
dinary intelligence and the .-••ureity of their num
bers.
The past influcnceof foreigners on our govern
ment, we believe to be a matter not sufficiently-
considered in the agitation of the subject of natu
ralization by the American party. Experience
we consider to be of far more value in determin
ing this question than mere abstract reasoning,
and experience will justify us in saying that while
we have derived incalculable advantage from our
naturalized citizens, in no one instance have wo
suffered harm. High offices in the State and the
army have been bestowed upon individuals of for
eign birth, and it is not attempted to be shown
that they have not in every instance been filled
with skill and fidelity. We have nowhere seen
this imputed predilection for their native, country
and her institutions, which interferes with their
duty as American citizens. The Republic has had
no braver soldiers, uo more honest officials, no
truer friends than her naturalized citizens. The
city riots of which so much has been said, when
traced to their cause, will be found iu most in
stances, to have originated from wrong and insult
infllicted upon our foreign citizens. These
things but prove more conclusively what we have
hitherto asserted, that when a distinction, arising
from the condition of birth, is drawn between the
citizens of a Government, hatred and envy must
necessarily follow. Wheufever the foreign emi
grant has been treated as an American citizen, he
has faithfully and peaceably performed tho duties
of one. Whenever they have been treated ns a
distinct class, as Germans or Irish, they havo been
necesserily thrown into a position of antagonism
to the native citizen. The conclusion which we
derive from tho above argument is this:—By the
repeal of tho naturalization laws, the State is not
only deprived of the able assistance which she has
ever derived from her foreign born citizens, but
that instead of friends, we annually introduce into
our midst a large number of persons who have no
sympathies with the Government in which they
live.
[Correspondence of the Daily Intelligencer.]
Dearing, July 16th, 1855.
Messrs. Rugglea d' Howard:—The De
mocracy of this and the adjoining counties
had quite a large and respectable meeting
at this place on the 14th instant. The dis
cussion opened with Col. Gardner of Au
gusta in a speech of about two hours in
length. It would be useless to attempt to
give in detail the various positions assumed
by the speaker. It was a masterly review
of the present position of parties in this
State. He showed beyound a doubt that the
Democratic party was the only national par
ty in existence at present, and the only way
to protect the rights of the South and per
petuate the Union of these States was to
carry out in good faith the principles of the
State and National Democratic platforms.
This speech would have done Mr. Gardner
credit in the Senate of the United States.—
Next conies Governor Cobb, who held the
audience spell-bound for upwards of two
hours, in one of the most powerful speeches
I ever heard. Gov. Ccbb is certainly one
of the ablest men in the Union, although
quite a young man. I have but little doubt
that if he should live, and the great nation
al principles which he so ably advocates
should succeed, and the sectional anti-Amer
ican parties should be overthrown, that
Georgia will at no very distant day have the
honor of furnishing the Union a Chief Ex
ecutive. The appeal made by both Gov.
Cobb and Col. Gardner to the voters of the 8th
Congressional District to sustain their able
Representative, Hon. A. H. Stephens, seems
to be irresistable. They called upon all
parties to rally to his support, notwithstand
ing slight differences whichmight heretofore
have divided them. That if he was not re
turned, the interests of Georgia would suf
fer for the want of his genius. Gov. Cobb
said that Mr. Stephens’ indefatigable efforts
in the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska bill
had brought down upon him the universal
hatred of the K. N. Abolition party of the
North, and that his defeat would carry with
it a thrill of joy through the Freesoil party
of Know Nothings at the North and West,
and that he had no doubt they had more
joy at his defeat than any man in the Un
ion, and that they would be willing to con
tribute hundreds of thousands of dollars to
effect that, end. Both speakers advocated the
re-election of Gov. Johnson with great abil
ity, after which the audience retired and
partook of a sumptuous barbacue prepared
by the citizens. Iu the evening the meet
ing was addressed by Col. John Phinny, of
Augusta, in a fine speech of considerable
length. He made a powerful appeal to the
voters of the 8th Congressional District to
come up to the support of their present
Governor and Representative.
All of the speakers give this new party,
whose object is to put down the Roman Ca
tholic religion, and then, perhaps, some
other weak denomination, and then to alter
that clause iu the Constitution, which de
clares that no religious test shall be required
as a test for public office. I understand that
many of the Know Nothings who had been
led into this secret oath-bound society, have
declared their intention to withdraw. You
may look out for grand news from Old
Columbia, the first Monday in October
next. PINEY WOODS.
AViiat Is to l>e Done i
In 1842, when South Carolina nullified
the Tariff, Congress adopted, by an over
whelming vote, the iniquitous Force Bill,
and President Jackson’s course won for
himself the applause of all quarters of the
country. That bill was aimed at South
Carolina alone, and expired by its own lim
itation. Massachusetts presents now a case
of similar but aggravated character. The
nullification of South Carolina broke no
faith with her sister States, and deprived
none of them of their property. That of
Massachusetts does both. It tramples upon
a clause in the Constitution for the rendi
tion of slaves—a clause which in its very
nature had all the force and obligation of a
treaty between sovereign States, and robs
the citizens of another State of their right
ful property. By her act she stands up in
the Confederacy and invites to her arms,
with pledges of impunity and scrutiny, the
sluves of the South to desert their masters.
She advertises herself as a sovereign negro
thief, whose thefts are to be defended by all
the authority and power of estate!
j iWhat is to be done ? Will Congress, in
its boasted devotion to the Constitution,
mete out to Massachusetts in ’55, the same
measure that it did to South Carolina in
’33 ? Or will it pass over, as harmless and
pardonable in the former, what was de
nounced as treason in the latter? We shall
see. Nullification, doubtless, in the dicti i-
ary of the Federal Government, is quite a
different thing in the South and in the
North.
Now, really it is a matter of not the least

action in this matter or not. It certainly
cannot by any legislation make the Fugitive

A Sweet Monel for tlie K. N’m.
“Tho Catholic planters of Maryland pro
cured to their adopted country the distin
guished praise of being the first of the Amer
ican Slates in which toleration was estab
lished by law; and while the Puritans were
persecuting their Protestant bretheren in
New England, and the Episcopalians were
retorting the same severity on the Puritans
in Virginia, the Catholics, against whom
the others were combined, formed in Mary
land the sanctuary where all might worship,
and none might oppress, and where even
Protestants sought refuge from Protestant
intolerance.”—2 Rent’s Commentaries, page
35.
It would be well for Garnett Andrews to
ponder upon the foregoing in his crusades
against religious toleration, and learn a les
son of charity without which all our profes
sions are as “sounding brass or a tinkling
cymbal.” ' It is hoped that the spirit of op
pression has somewhat subsided in his
breast, yet it is feared that the hope is a for-
lon one when it is remembered that his in
tolerance is so deep seated that he not only
proscribes the Catholics, but in the year
1840, as a judge, rejected the oaths of two
respectable Protestant witnesses, who be
lieved in the Bible, Jesus Christ, and that
sin meets with deserved punishment on
earth, simply because they did not believe
in future endless misery or punishment, and
that too, in the face of the supreme law of
Georgia, declaring that “JVb person shall be
denied the enjoyment of any civil right mere-
, ly on account of his religious principles.”
; Such is the man the K. N’s have selected
I from among the patriotic freemen of Geor-
, gia to carry out their designs, but unfortu-
| nately for their success, the good and true
I Episcopalians.'Cathnlics, Universalists, Bap
tists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Patriots
and religious freemen, are unwilling to en-
| trust their sacred civil rights to the care of
j a man so illiberal in his administration of
■ the laws of the land. With such a man at
j the helm of government, there is no telling
! whose head may not be cut off. All liberal
; minded men surely will beware. And
j scores upon scores of the K. N’s are untying
| their hands in this land of free suffage, scorn-
i ing to be hand cuffed at the Polls to serve

Shocking Occurrence at a Mormon Bap
tism.—The Cincinnati Times of the 2d says:
“ About half past 5 o’clock yesterday
morning a party of Mormons, numbering
probably about fifty, crossed the river for
the purpose of administering baptism to
eight or ten converts. The preparation was
indecent, to say the least. Both men and
women were required to strip their linen,
! in the midst of the crowd and upon the
i river bank. The elder led an old man,
i aged about fifty years, by the name of Al-
| exander Williams, into the water and bap-
i tized him. After this the old man, who
! was a good swimmer, struck out into the
I water for the purpose of taking a swim. It
! is supposed that his drawers slipped down
; over his feet, which, destroying his motion,
j caused him to sink. His son, also named
1 Alexander, aged about 23 years old, and
who was stripped for baptism, seeing his
father sinking, plunged in after him. He
! could not swim at all, and getting into deep
. water immediately sank and drowned before
| his father. Both bodies were recovered and
delivered to a son and brother, who were
! present at the holding of the inquest.”
Reform iu England,
The London Correspondent of the Char-
: leston Mercury, under date of June 22d,
j says:
The qestion of Administrative Reform
1 was brought forward, last Friday, by Mr.
Layard, who made a very masterly speech
on the occasion, probably the best he has
yet delivered. Sir Bulwer Lytton spoke
also well in support of his amendment,
which pledged the House definitely to the
question, without passing censure on any
party. Palmerston, and the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, spoke against the original
motion, which was put to the vote and lost;
but Bulwer Lytton’s amendment was again
brought forward last night, and, no one ap
pearing to say a word against it, the House
passed it without a division, amidst the de
risive cheers and laughter of the opponents
of the Ministry. Thus, the House of com
mons stands pledged to carry reform, and
the system of patronage, which has so long
crippled the energies of England, may be
destroyed. Probably no association has had
its claims so speedily acknowledged, as that
for Administrative Reform. It has only
been two months in existence, and has hard
ly yet deided on waht abuse it shall com
mence its attacks. It holds its third public
meeting on Wednesday next, at Drury Lane
Theatre, when Charles Dickens and Sir
Joseph Paxton are to be the chief spea
kers.
England may soon hope to enjoy cheap
newsnapers. The repeal of the stamp duty
comes into operation on the 1st of July, and
the daily newspapers will then be lowered
from the five pence to four pence. An even
ing paper, the Express, which has had a
very limited circulation at the old price,
will sell at two pence. The weekly news
papers, especially those which now sell at
three pence, will add greatly to their circu
lation at two pence. The first capitalist
who starts a good single sheet daily
newspaper at one penny, will reap a rich
harvest. If well conducted, the circulation
in the first six months might average fifty
thousand. Never was there a period when
newspapers were in so great request; indeed
the war has made them almost the only-
literature of the day. Liverpool, Manches
ter, Birmingham, Glasgow, and other great
cities will, of cousre, speedily enjoy the
luxury of a daily paper, from which arbi
trary laws have hitherto deprived them.
This will effect a wonderful change in the
country. Newsparers like the London Mor
ning Herald, Chronicle and Post, which ap
peal to a small clique or a party, will have
to enlarge their viewsor die out. The Times,
which, from its weatlth and influence, has
almost made the daily press of England a
monopoly, will receive an important check,
as hundreds of persons who now regularly
pay for the loan of that paper, will perfer
expending the same sum in purchasing a
paper of their own. The vast body of the
people have hitherto been without a popular
organ, except it was found in some of the
Sundy newspapers, and these, it must be
confessed, have rather been in the habit of
fostering their prejudices, then advancing
their interests. It is said that the Times
would not have been so bold and indepen
dent in its tone during the last six months,
but for a conviction of the coming change.
It has always appealed to the party in pow
er, and it begins to entertain the idea that
the people may happen to be of that party.
Tunnel under the Niagara.—The Buff
alo Commercial agitates the project of con
structing a tunnel under Niagara river. It
says that the difficulties attending such a
work are trifling compared with those met
in the pro^ec ■ ■>»-. < r su ,h -works in Eng
land and The benefits to be de
rived from it, l - that reciprocity in trade
exists between ili» United States and Cana
da, are incalculable. An examination of
localities, in view of such a work was made
some time ago, and the spot selected was the
shortest crossing between Fort Erie and the
Ferry, where the river is 20 feet deep, and
flows over a bed of solid stratified rock.—
The length of the tunnel is set down at 2,-
400 feet, and the Commercial thinks that
the capital required to complete the work
under the most unfavorable circumstances,
would not exceed half a million of dollars.

Public Speaking.
L. E. Blakley Esq., will address the Dem
ocratic party and citizens of Atlanta, at the
City Hall on Saturday evening next. Com
mencing at 8 o’clock.
What we are Doing.
The Democrats are Moving.—Tho demo
cratic press throughout the nation was never
in better spirits with respect to the prospects
of the party than they are at this moment.
Everywhere, tho utmost satisfaction, harmo
ny and confidence of success exist. We en
tertain not a doubt of the triumphant suc
cess of the party in the next Presidential
election. Gen. Pierce’s administration is
entirely satisfactory to his friends, and to
the whole party, and his name has already
been suggested for re-nomination.—Barn
stable Patriot.
Thus stands the case. While tho Demo
cratic party at the North are standing in
the front defence of the South, the Know
Nothing party would withdraw from them
our support, and leave them unprotected to
do battle for our rights. We do not say
that the Southern Know Nothings havenot
: incorporated within their platform sound
| principles upon the subject of slavery; but
j we do say, that in deserting the Adminis-
I tion, and our Northern allies, they have
! rendered their principles inoperative of any
good ; nay. more, they have seriously en
dangered the cause for which all parties at
the South should be united in support. The
Administration and its friends, undeniably
stand the only party North, with the excep
tion of a remnant of the New York Hards,
who yield to the South her constitutional
claims ; this they have done amid the deser
tion of friends, and the denunciation of foes,
amid greater sacrifices than one party has
ever made, to the cause of another. If party
prejudices could be laid aside, there lives
not a friend of the South, who can say that
the Administration has not. through its en
tire course upon this subject, acted nobly.
The patient virtue of every individual has
its limits. So, we fear, has that of the Ad
ministration. They have endured loss and
obliquy at the North. How they will meet
the ingratitude of the South, is a question
which may be fearfully asked. It is suppo
sing a degree of heroism, more than belongs
to ordinary mortals, to believe that they
will continue, amid the denunciations of
the South, to protect her rights.
We have no fears for the future, if the
Southern men will act well their part. The
Northern Democracy yet stand forth a
strong and determined body. With such
allies as Pierce, Douglas, Cass, Shields,
Bright and Richardson, we have every thing
to hope ; no party can be ineffectual with
leaders like these. The same stern devo
tion to the cause of the Constitution, and
the rights of the South, have characterized
every recent display of the Administration
party ; at the same time, it has shown
them still powerful to the effecting of their
designs. The storm which followed the
Nebraska bill, swept from its ranks all un
sound and factious elements, whose place
have been filled by the rest of the conserva
tive men, who had not hitherto acted with
them. The recent election in Illinois proves
that there is yet power in the Democracy,
and 36,000 majority in the State of Douglas,
is a good omen of peace to the Union.
While tho South adheres to the Northern
Democracy, the Northern Democracy will
support the South. While such a union
stands, all the efforts of Freesoilism, Aboli
tionism and Know Nothingism, will be but
harmless and ridiculous.
We only fear, and we believe it is a dan
ger to be seriously feared, that our Northern
friends, disgusted with the desertion of so
large a body of the Southern people, will
quit the cause for which they have so long
battled, and leave to an impending fate
men who, instead of protecting themselves
have exercised their best endeavors to heap
obliquy and ruin on their allies. Will the
Know Nothing organs tell us the results to
follow from the triumph of their party in
the South. To our minds no matter was
ever clearer: an irremediable separation be
tween the constitutional men North and
South, and the consequent evils to follow
thereon.

Corner Stone of the Medical College.
It will be seen by reference to another col
umn of our paper that the interesting cere
mony of laying the corner stone of the At
lanta Medical College will be performed on
Saturday next. The efforts on the part of
the Trustees and Faculty to establish this
institution deserve the commendations of
the friends of our city and of medical learn
ing throughout the State. Their energy
has been equalled only by their success.—
Under the most trying difficulties, and in
spite of the most violent opposition, they
have erected on a solid basis the institution
consigned to their care. With the same
persevering energy they have hitherto dis
played, we may soon expect to see a Med-
ioal College in our midst unexcelled in
wealth and in the numbor of its students,
as it already is in the merits of its Profes
sors by any similar institution South.—
We hope to see a full attendance of our
citizens, on the occasion of a ceremony so
intttwting to all.
COMMUNICATED.
The Judicial EleetioM—No. 6.
A ssribler desiring to be noticed sets up
nearly two columns in the Georgian over the
signature of “Talking Rock,” “mainly with
the view of calling public attention to the
excellence of the literary merits” of my ar
ticle No. 1. Evincing the extremity to
which he was driven, he opens with a non
sensical play upon the phrase, “reflecting
minds.” In answer to which I have.to say
—taking the exquisite fairness of criticism
in his whole article—I am driven to the
conclusion that however “unreflecting”
minds may be elsewhere, there is at least
one at “Talking Rock” gifted not only in
“reflecting” but in “ inventing.” Going
still further he says I took up “the pen of
indiscriminate panegyric, and endeavored
to prove that Col. Brown should be called
to preside over the fortunes of Bluo Ridge
circuit.” I reassert and believe to be true
what I then wrote—that Col. Brown is“ em
inently qualified in temperament, habits,
education and circumstances to sustain him
self upon the Bench.” In “temperament,”
by the predominance of the mental qualifi
cations and endowments which give quick
ness of thought, correctness of judgement,
and capability of enduring continued appli
cation of tho mind without losing its balance
and vigor. In “habits,” by being a man of
fixed habits and principles, correct, upright
and dignified in his deportment—a man
who enforces by example as well as precept
those rules of morality which ought to gov
ern men in their intercourse with their fel
low-men.
In “education,” not by being a “case law
yer,” as the letter writer calling himself
“Marshall,” in the Georgian, would have
the people believe,—knowing only the law*
of the cases be has represented—but by be
ing thoroughly acquainted with the princi
ples of law as a science, and the rules of
application thereof to the multiplied rela
tions of facts as they ariso injudicial in
vestigations—by having undergone a rigid
course of study and mental training—not
for the space of “twenty years” as cited by
this scribbler “Marshall” front Judge Black-
stoue as the essential period to “ master the
science of law.” I would remind “Mar
shall” that those wero “old fogy” days—
the facilities of the study of law, as well as
of every other science, has greatly increased
from the days of Blackstone. “Young Amer
ica” does not require a long period. I will
remark while upon this point that there is
in the article of “Marshall” all the foot
prints of hireling laudation of the Judge
who has probably been accustomed to refer
with peculiar nods to his “Buncumb” in
court. There is also a manifest and studied
effort to read out Col. Brown for no other
reason than that he has not lived as many
years as some cobblers who are older and
therefore think that age alone supplies the
place of those essential qualifications whieh
are wanting in some, and which Col. Brown
possesses in so eminent a degree.
This “Talking Rock” man is so enamored
of the “immoital dollar,”and so lost to every
thing else that he construes the word “cir
cumstances” to allude to pecuniary circum
stances. If he is so stupid and so like his
surname as not to think or give a fair con
struction to any thing, I .vill inform him
that I did not then and do not now consid
er the pecuniary circumstances of the Judge
as entering in the slightest degree with the
list of qualifications. Some of the circum
stances in view when that line was penned
have since been alluded to ; among whiqh
I may again mention the “hardened condi
tion” of the dockets in tho circuit (not into,
as inadvertently written or printed), and
the utter incapacity of Judge Irwin to “un
burden” them, even by means of “adjourned
courts,” and the fact that while Col. Brown
is usually correct in j udgement he has the
capacity to despatch the business of the
country.
Criticising further upon my literature,
Talking Rock makes rare fun for the read
ers of the Georgian upon my expression,
“ buffetted by the frowns ” of poverty, &c.,
and says that “ the Colonel is the only man
or thing that was ever buffetted by the
frowns of anything.” Very well, it maybe
an odd and laughable figure, but will you
be pleased to read about twenty lines and
tell the people w hat you mean by the “snow
of the Judicial Ermine,” and also by the
“ dirt of political strife and trickery ?”
The assertion that Col. Brown sought a
nomination from the Democratic party, I
beg leave to assure those who do not know
the fact, is like many other emanations and
assertions of “ Talking Rock,” the truth of
which rests only in his own imagination.
Having accidentally mentioned the fact
of Coi. B.own’s election to the Senate of the
State six years ago, and that while in that
body he acquired a “ reputation as wido as
the State,” a great story is made of that.
He did not secure his party vote—true. He
was in a minority afterwards—true. “Tho
people repudiated his aisunion heresies by
an overwhelming vote.” Have you no
heresies about you, Mr. “ Talking Rock,”
which have been repudiated at the polls by
a vote rather “overwhelmingor have you
been too cautious to allow your “federal
heresies to be tested at the polls? Col.
Brown was afterwards amply endorsed upon
the Pierce electoral ticket, a little in contrast
with the fate of that “ two run ” ticket
upon which the name of his competitor fig
ured. The defeat there was somewhat
“overwhelming/” eh!
This inau “ at Talking Rock ” seems to
be sensitive upon the subject of “ favorit
ism and prejudice.” lie takes my remark
that Col. Brown’s administration would be
“ free from the shackles of “ favoritism aud
prejudice,” for an insinuation upon Judge
Irwin. Why are you so restless and fret
ful upon that point ? Are you afraid that
the “ snow of the Judicial Ermine ” will
melt from -Judge Irwin by the “sun” which
is to shine “ upon all alike ?” Is it true
that you do feel a concern about that mat
ter ?
This, Marshall says, “I will as cheer
fully accord to him (Brown) whatever merit
he may possess, as any one, and 1 would as
willingly advance his interest as his most
devoted admirer.” (No one who knows
Col. Brown can believe this to be a candid
statement, who has read the article in ques
tion.) But Shades of all the Gods! help
us to unravel the next clause!—“When
that advancement is not incompatible with
the rights of a free people!” What right
of the people, in the name of all that is fair,
will be violated by the elevation of Col.
Brown ? Does this hireling Marshall con
tend that the friends of Judge Irwin have
anything like a divine right to continue him
iu office? Have not a “free people” the
right to elect Col. Brown even in the face of
such illiberal criticism upon his qualifica
tions ? Have a “free people” not the right
to turn out Judge Irwin even with the sick
ly praise which Sheridan, Talking Rock and
Marshall pile upon him ? Indeed the whole
of Marshall's article is fully in keeping with
the strain of puff employed by Whig emis
saries throughout the district. We looked
for it through the press, as we have had it
in private circles in enormous gobbs that
ought to have disgusted tho sycophants
themselves. Mr. S., T. and M., can you
not give us a few more paragraphs of the
same sort to help out in this hour of great
trial and tribulation, as a supplement to my
“brief series ” upon the Judicial Election?
Come, speak out like men. Hold up your
heads and look brave, until you see what a
“ free people ” will do on the first Monday
in October next. EMMET.

CHRONIC ENLARGEMENT OF THE TONSILS
My daughter, when six mouths old, was taken with a
swelling in the tonsils, which grew larger and b r „. r
till when six years old she had great difficulty in swai’
lowing her food. Every night watch was kept, fe ariB -
she would suffocate. The best dnetorsattendedherbut
could give no relief. I took her to -he most eminen*
doctors in the East; they said there was no help furhe-
but to outgrow it. With a sad heart I returned home
with her, when she became so much worse that the
doctors had to be called in again : they decided that
the tonsils must be cut off as the only means of giving
relief. My wife would not consent to this, and she de
termined to try your I.inimem, whieh gave relief the
very first application, and by a continued use she cn-
tirely recovered. She is now ten years old and Hcshv
aud healthy as could be desired. Your Liniment is &l.
so the best in use for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns
headache, etc., aud it will remove the most severe pain
in a few minutes. It also cured caked udder in mv
