The Know Nothings and Anti-
Slave ry Men.
There are disingenuous men, who
affect to be shocked that the “ Aboli
tionists and Free-Soilers” should have
gone into the Know Nothing organiza
tion. Abolitionists must have multi
plied wonderfully, to have given Mr.
Mott, the Democratic candidate for
Canal Commissioner in Pensvlvania,
180,000 majority, when the Whig can
didate for Governor is elected by thir
ty thousand! They must bo übiquit
ous, to carry the municipal elections in
Washington, Baltimore, Norfolk, Nash
ville, and New Orleans, as well as in
Northern cities!! They must have be
come foul traitors to their principles to
have defeated Benton in Missouri, and
to be seeking the overthrow of the An
ti-Slavery candidates for the Governor
ship of New York and Massachusetts,
by alliance with Silver Grayism in one
State, and Webster Whigism in an
other !!!
The Know Nothings are composed
chiefly of men who have hitherto taken
no active part in politics, and of Whigs
and of Democrats; aud mixed up with
them are a few Free-Soilers, as they
are called, not enough however, to
shape or «!oen color their policy. We
do not bSTieve that these men, if sincere
in their Anti-Slavery views, if they
regard the issues involved in the Slave
ry question as really of paramount im
portance, will maintain their connec
tion with such an organization. They
will not consent to the introduction of
another question which shall supersede
the Slavery issue, distracting and divi
ding the free States, so as again to re
mand them to the yoke of the Slave
Power. They will not countenance
an organization which ignores the great
question of Human Liberty, which
would exalt John M. Clayton, the eo
laborer of Douglas, and crush William
H. Seward; which would use Silver
Gray Daniel Ullman to defeat Myron
11. Clark, and prevent the voice of the
Empire Staae from being heard against
the Nebraska outrage; and which
would subject Massachusetts to the
domination of Webster Whigery, and
Rum, in the person of Gardner its
candidate for Governer. whose position
is thus defined by the Boston Evening
Telegraph , which has been supposed to
have some affinities with Know Noth
ingism:
“ The Evening Telegraph announces,
apparently by authority, that the Know
Notl.’ng nominee for Governor is
strongly opposed to the Liquor Law,
having voted against it in the Legisla
ture—and, further, that lie is an out
and out opponent of abolitionism and
Slavery agitation—in a word, a politi
cian of the Webtser school. We make
a record of the fact, though we are a
little apprehensive that the Telegraph
is thinking more of the best mode of
securing the votes of the Union Whig
or “conservative portion of our citizens”
to Mr. Gardner, than of accurracy in
its statements. — Chronicle
“ Our statements about Mr. Gardner’s
position merely embodied information
possessed by everybody in Boston who
knows anything about that gentleman.
We give the information for the bene
fit of our readers at a distence, without
caring whether it attracts or repels
votes from any class of citizens. At
present, we support no candidate for
Governor, and, in remarks about the
various candidates we endeavor to
make none but accurate statements. —
It is as well known to the Chronicle as
to us, that Mr. Gardner is strongly op
posed to the Liquor Law, and that he
voted against it; that lie is a politician
of the Webster school, an out and out
opponent of Anti-Slavery, and a warm
friend of the Fugitive' Slave Law, in
whose defence during the Sims affair
he volunteered, and enrolled himself,
together with 1,500 other Boston gen
tlemen, holding similar sentiments.”
We trust to the good sense and prin
ciple of our Anti-Slavery friends.—
Let them be entrapped into no such
Party. It were well for the Anti-
Slavery press to expose its antagon
ism to their Principles and Policy.—
Atsuch a crisis as this, when the Peo
ple of the free States are almost ready
to unite as one man for the overthrow
of the Slave Power, the attempt to get
up a miserable issue between native
born and naturalized citizens. Catholics,
and Protestants, is unpardonable.—
We, Anti-Slavery men, claim to be
the peculiar champions of the inaliena
ble rights of all men, the peculiar
enemies of proscription on account of
race or religion. We make our ap
peals to the People openly; we court
publicity, would do nothing in a cor
ner, challenge the investigation of our
principles and proceedings:—what af
finity can we have with an organization
founded upon precisely opposite prin
ciples, and pursuing precisely ?.*: oppo
site course ? We are glad to see that
honest men who were caught ir. this
new Party are begining to think more
wisely.
We are aware that we hazard some
thing by our plainness of speech. It
would seem that there are Know Noth
ings who are accustomed to visit punish
ment upon editors who oppose their
policy, by withdrawing patronage from
their papers. They will tolerate no
difference of opinion. Our views have
already cost us a few subsribers, and
a few more may drop olf. Let them
go-—we lament their intolerance, but
shall not defer to it. Tfce great majori
ty of our readers understand too well
the principles of the Anti-Slavery
movement and the claims of an inde
pendent press, to be offended by consist*
ent and frank dealing.— National Era.

Etiquette of the Sanctum.
Book stores are full of treatises
upon the Etiquette of the parlor, the
bail room, the dinner table et cetera ,
but we search in vain for the Etiquette
of the /Sanctum . We would, it we
could find such a work, buy the edi
tion for gratuitous distribution among
our acquaintances. In default of this,
we propose to drop a few hints to the
public on this very important subject.
And first of all, what are the cour
tesies due from un editor in liis sanc
tum to his visitors? A nod of recog
nition, if he is not very busy; other
wise none at all. We take it that the
justness of this rule will be conceded
by all who are familiar with the duties
of the profession, lie has a certain
amount of labor to perform in a given
time, for which his subscribers pay
him. His time is, therefore, not his
own, and he has no right to waste it
in social intercourse. A given amount
of copy must be furnished in a given
time; printers must be kept employ
ed; the editor’s eye must be run
through all his exchanges ; the latest
news from every quarter must be se
lected, or else the editor fails of his
duty. We take it that noman of cor
rect principles will hold that duty
must be sacrificed to sociability. Our
first proposition is, therefore, estab
lished.
And secondly,what are the privileges
of visitors in a*sanctum ? Silence and
the privilege of reading the exchanges.
Very few persons who visit the sanc
tum conform to this rule. The first
thing many of them do is to read the
selections and editorials prepared for
the next issue. We place such conduct
upon a par with reading the private
correspondence of a Lawyer with his
clients, or the sermon the Clergyman
has prepared for next Sundry. If
such conduct is tolerated, it will be
impossible for an editor to preserve the
secrets of his office, or to give fresh
ness or interest to his columns. An
other practice still more common, is
for the visitors to take the papers con
taining the latest news, quietly to seat
themselves in the best seats and read
them from beginning to end at their
leisure, every now and then indulging
in running commentaries; while the
poor editor is wasting his time with
exchanges from the country; and the
printers are filling the paper with
stale news for want of that which the
visitors of the sanctum are so leisurely
perusing. Another class bolt into the
sanctum, seize hold of the papers, as
one of our friends courted the ladies,
as they come to them , mix eastern and
western, city and country, old and
new exchanges pell mell together and
bolt out again with pockets filled with
the newest and best; and next day
damn the editor for a dolt and turn
from his paper with disgust because
the news he has in his pockets is not
in its columns.
Another grievance under which ed
itors labor, is the practice indulged in
by very honest and clever people of
taking papers from the editor’s table
without his knowledge or consent. —
Very often papers, laid aside for peru
sal after the bustle of the day is over,
are from this cause found missing and
the able editorial which he intended to
manufacture out of them proves an
abortion; and the poor man is forced
to manufacture an article as we are
doing now, out of his own grievances
to occupy the space the other was in
tended to fill. But the other day we
left our sanctum for a short walk, of
10 minutes, at the close of the day,
leaving our table filled with exchanges
f. om New York, Washington, Charles
ton, Savannah and other important
places, we had hastily glanced
over aid intended to study afUr office
hours, as a preparation lor the articles
of the next issue: On our return,
every copy but two was missing and
alas i alas! our good temper was quite
exhausted.
Now, we earnestly beseech our sub
scribers to believe that these remarks
are not intended for them; but if they
lose their temper and cry “stop my pa
per,” we shall feel authorized to think
that they are the worms who have for
so long fed upon our papers, and con
gratulate ourselves upon having got
rid of them at the sacrifice of one year’s
subscription.— Tone s & Sentinel.

To all who use Liquor as a Medicine or as

Liquors for medicinal purjKises should give the pre
ference to Wolfe’s Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps
1. It is manufactured at Schiedam, in Holland,
and exclusively in tlie factory of the proprietor, by
processes and from materials elsewhere unemployed
and unknown. , , . , ,
2. It is proved, by the repeated analysis of several
eminent chemists, to be entirely tree Irom ’lie per
nicious fusil oil which remains in every kind ot
Liquor distilled from grain, and which is tiie cause
of tlie nervous and visceral derangement, serious
congestion, and mordid desire for habitual and in
temperate indulgence, which such liquors invariab
ly tend to superinduce.
3. It is proved, by the same unerring test, that
this Juniper Gin is "not flavored with the coarse,
acrid and indigestible oil of juniper heretofore used,
but with the specifically lighter, more volatile, aro
matic and medicinal of tlie two essential oils ot tlie
Italian juniper berry, neglected by every other man
ufacturer.
4. It is chemically proved to be absolutely pure
in its rectification—a quality obtained by an entire
ly new process, and which no other Holland Gin in
tlie world lias acquired.
5. It is proved by extensive medical experience
and testimony, to be an efficient as well as an agree
able remedy in many cases of incipient dropsy, grav
el, gout, chronic rheumatism, flatulence, colic, con
cretions in the kidneys and bladder,. dyspepsia,
fever and ague, general debility, sluggish circula
tion of the blood, deficient assimilation of food and
exhausted vital energy.
6. It is a most grateful and renovating cor
dial and when used as directed, never inflames
the system or induces inebriety, but tends rather to
subdue the latter frailty, by creating a dislike to
all inferior liquors. And it invariably corrects tlie
ill effects of bad water, whether in swampy or
limestone districts. In all of these enumerated
qualities it has no rival in any market in the
world.

quite a quantity of lumber to Eatonton, and pile it
near tlie depotj where we will sell scantling and
plank of various kinds, at one dollar and thirty
cents per hundred feet, for Cash. If lumber at the

CHEST PROTECTOR,
To all persons of all ages and conditions, asn eer,
tain and a safe shield against those fearful diaeeses
Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, Coughs. Colds
and other afflictions of the Lungs, which arise from
the exposed state of tlie chest, according to fashion,
and tlie continual changes of our climate.
“ The Protector,” is simply a chemically prepared
fur lined with silk and padded, which, suspended tVom
the neck, cov ei st he chest, in so agrecahie a manner
thut, once worn, it becomes a necessity und com
fort.
“ The Protector,” although but recently introduc
ed into America is making rapid progress through
the United States, tlie Canadas, South America and
tlie West Indies. It Ims tor a long time been a staple
article in England and on the continent of Europe,
while it bus grown in many countries to tlie position
of an article of dress.
To demonstrate these facts enquire of unv English
i csident in your viciniy of his knowledge of the beae
tieii'l effects of wearing tlie Protector, witiioit re
course to doctoring of any kind. The cost of wear
ing these articles is a mere trifle, and one will last
some years. No one who values the health of him
self or his family will t* without them. The Hospi
tals in this country are not alone recommending them
but rapidly introducing them. Ilareonrt, Brad lev
fc Cos., ot London, and Manchester, England were
originally entrusted with the manufacture 'of the
Protectors, by tlie lamented Dr. Coopei, and contin
ue to muinitacturc according to his original instruc
tions, and therefore recommend those who w ould
wear The I rotectors,’ to see to their being genuine.
Remember this in a staple article, and no Pa
tent Medicine.

CONSUMPTION
SUCCESSFULLY TREATED,
BY INHALATION OF MEDICATED VAPORS
—BY
JOHNSON STEWART ROSE, M. D.,
IT'ELLOW of tlie Royal College of Physicians,
and tor years Senior Physician in tlie L radon
Royal Infirmary, tor diseases of the Lungs.
In tiie treatment of Consumption by Inhalation,
I have obtained results which warrant mein asserting
that it is now as curable as diseases of the Stomach
and Liver.
Breathing medicine directly into the Lungs is
certainly tlie rational me de of attacking the dis
ease. Like many other great and beneficent discov
eries, its seems strange why such treatment was
not resorted to long ago. YVliere there is life there
: s assuredly hope lor the most seemingly hopeless
Cases, as throughout all the stages of this insidious
disease, tlie wonderful and benelicient effects of his
tie. inient are soon apparent. In cases also of
j Bronchitis, Astinno, Ac., the inhaling of powders
and vapors lias been eminently successful, and to
those suffering under any of the above named com
plaints, I can guarantee a speedy relief. I have
pleasure in referring to 109 names, residents of
New Y'ork and neighborhood, who imve been re
stored to vigorous health; about one-third of the
above number, according to the patients’ own state
ments, were considered hopeless eases.
The Inhaling method is soothing, sate and speedy,
and consists in the administration of Medicines in
such a manner that tliey are conveyed into the
Lungs in the tbrm of vapor and produce their ac
tion at tlie seat of disease. Its practical success is
destined to revolutionize the opinions of the medi
cal world, and establish the entire curability of
Consumption.
Applicants will please to state if they have ever
bled from the Lungs; if tliey have lost fiesli; have
cough, night sweats, and fever turns; what and
how much they expectorate; what the condition
of their stomach and bowels. The necessary Medi
cines, Apparatus, Ac., will be forwarded to auy part.

The Ilydromagen is a valuable discovery for pro
tecting the feet Irom damp or cold, and therctbic
a preventive of many Lung diseases, without any
doctoring whatever. The Ilydromagen is in the form
of a sole, and worn inside the hoot or shoe. Its iucd~
ioated character is a powerful antidote to doseuse.
For Gentlemen it will be found agreeable, warm,
and healthy, to wear in the coldest or rainiest weath
er, as the foot cannot become wet if the Ilydromagen
is inserted. Ladies may wear the lightest soled hoots
or shoes in the most inclement w eather with impuni
ty ; while 'Consumption, so prevalent among tho
young of our country, may be thwarted by their gen
eral adoption. They entirely euinreede-otxr-*ho*b, as
the latter cause the feet to perspire in a very unheal
thy manner; and besides, are not dangerous wear to
pedestrians in iev weather, like india rubbers.—
While the latter cause the feet to appear extremely
large, the Ilydromagen, being a mere thin slice of
cork prepared peculiarly, placed inside, does not in
crease the size oft ho boot, or cause the foot to appear
untidy. To Children they are extremely valuable, as
they may engage in exercise with commit and heal
thy effects. Their expense is so slight as to scarce
need mention; besides, those who patronize them
will find their yearly doctor'* bill* much diminished
thereby.
As the Ilydromagen is becoming more known, its
sale is increasing to an almost incredible extent. List
year in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Liver
pool, Glasgow, Leeds, Dublin, Paris, Antwerp, Ham
burg, and Berlin, our sales reached 1,782,450, pairs
