But though be cannot gain free access to things
behind the curtain, yet he can see enough of out
ward show and inward hollowness, hear enough of
fair professions without truth or sincerity to be con
vinced that there is much of humbug in the world.
That all classes of society are engaged in a perpetu

who shall be deceived. He finds that much of the

Union of Fillmoreism and Prohibition.
The Macon Convention selected as one of the Fill
more Alternate Electors, B. H. Overby—the anti-li
quor candidate for Governor, last Fall. What does
that mean? Are the Fillmoreites so hard pushed
for votes, that the}’ must throw a sop to the Cerbe
tub of the Anti-liquor party?
The above, which we clip from the Federal Union,
-affords another proof of what we have all along as
serted, that the political press of Georgia lose no op
portunity of making sidethrusts at the Temperance
cause. As to the political Party, of which he .'■peak.-
we have nothing to say; but we would ask the “Fed
eral Union” what there has been in the conduct ol
the Tempercnco men of our State to iriuce the be
lief that they would stoop to a coalition with any po
litical paaty? Or what have they dono to deserve
the epithet which he has bestowed upon them? He
might have considered it an elegant rhetorical figure,
or perhaps was willing, to sacrifice reason and jus
tice to a fondness for classical allusions. The sen
tence certainly is meaningless enough to admit such
a supposition. But in this, he has pursued the same
course followed by other political editors. They
have not the manly independence openly to profess
their devoted love for RUM aad RUMSELLERS.—
They have not the candor to give their real reasons
for opposing the Temperance cause, but attempt by
mystified and ungenerous inuendoes to create some
false impression.
With every campaign wg become more convinced
of the utter corruptness of the political presa There
is scarcely one in our whole land which does not
prostitute itself as a slave to party leaders for the ob
tainment of party ends. To gain these, any amoun
of vituperation, slander, and often the most glaring,
wilful falsehoods are put forth and defended, as if
immaculate truths. Reason, justice, and modera
tion are qualities which they seldom or never dis
play. Now nearly every sheet in our State is filled
with charges and replies, attacks and defences which
are as deficient in taste as illiberal in sentiment.
But this extract likewise contains a slurring re
mark, thrown at Mr. Overby, doubtless more on ac
count of his Temperance, than his political principles.
We have nothing to say about his politics. They
are matters with which we have no concern. But
we do that we should deeply regret to see Mr.
Overby descend from the high position which lie has
occupied as a Christian and philanthropist, to bedaub
himself with the Murky filth of demagogueism.—
But the “Federal Union” need not be frightemd.—
We hope soon to have Mr. Overby engaged in a
more noble and honorabl<?.occupation than assisting
party leaders in hatching up a “crisis.” The taunts
and jeers of the whole host of party-devoted papers
will be unable to drive him Irom a position which he
has long and firmly occupied. *
“The Spirit of the Times says that the famous ra
cer “Fashion” is not dead.
We suppose not, and we presume such an event
is likely never to happen, unless mankind, or rather
womankind, becomes vastly more the subjects of
reason than they are at present. Though she has
been for ages engaged in the race, her energies are
Still unflagging. Thousands of her competitors
have fainted and fallen by the way, but she still
presses on as eager for the contest as when she first
began. Men and women still hurry on in the wild,
vain pursuit, with a mad, recklessness. Fashion nev

of the kaleidoscope, present herself in ten thousand va

Shocking Murder of * Young Lady.
A letter in the New York Tribune, dated Erie co,
Fa., July 8, relates the following tragedy growing
out of a love affair:
A man by the name ol Hayt had for some time
been paying his attentions to a Miss Allen. He was
over 40 years old, while she was in her 16th year.
The girl’s laiher had asked Ilayt for the loan of a
revolver, which he was known to have, to shoot rats
with. He had, accordingly, loaded every barrel, and
after dinner proceeded to the house of Alien, for the
and ‘able durpose of seeing his daughter and deliver
ing hi? pistol: out after spending some time with
the girl, she told him that she would not marry him,
and that if she was out of the way she could get o’h
er beaus or another beau, when without a moment’s
hesitation, he dr . w from his pocket the pistol, and
placing it to her head deliberately fired, when she
screamed and fell.
lie then picked her up and laid heron the lounge
or settee, when he fired a second barrel, the ball
passing through her head forward of her ears. The
mother of the girl, who was in an adjoining room,
on hearing her scream, s’arted to go to her assist
ance, but Hayt commenced filing a* her also, but
without effect. He then immediately left the house
and ran into the woods, as was supposed for the pur
pose of secreting himself, but instead of so doing
went as quietly as possible and gave himself up to
the proper authorities. In his examination he said
that he had no intention of shooting or hurting his
victim a minute before the eeed was done. He con
fessed everything, saying he was perfectly sane, but
does not know why he gred at the girl’s mother, as
he did not want to hatm her. lie was commitu and.

Diseases of the Liver.
When the celebrated Dr. Rush declared that
drunkenness was a’ disease, he enunciated a truth
whith the experience and observation of medical
men is every day confirming. The many apparent
ly insane excesses of those who in Julge in the use
of spirituous liquors, may be thus accounted for.—
The true cause of conduct, which is taken for infat
uation, is very frequently a diseased state of (jhe Liv
er. No organ in the human system, when deranged,
produces a more ft ightful catalogue of diseases. Ami
if, instead of applying remedies to the manifestations
of disease, as is too often the case, physicians would
prescribe with a view to the original cause* fewer
deaths would result from dis ases induced by a de
ranged state of the Liver. Three-fourths of the dis
eases enumerated under the head of Consumption,
have their seat in a diseased liver. Dr. M’LaneV
ceiebrated Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros.,
are a certain cure.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for Dr. M’-
Lane’s Celebrated Liver Pills, manufactured b\
Fleming Bros, of Pittsburg, Pa. All other Vermi
fuge in comparison are worthless. Dr. M’Lane’s
genuine Vermifuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills,
can now be had at all the respectable drug stores. —
