GREAT FooTRAcE OVER THE BEACON COURSE, Ho-
BoKEN la our advertising columns will be found
the names Of 36 persons who have entered for this
great undertaking to come off on the l4b Of Octo-
ber. II may be considered as national contest,
as some of the ablest pedestrians Of The old coun
try have crossed the Atlantic for the express pur-
pose Of contending with the best Of this country.
The number entered is far beyond what was ex-
pected, and there is little doubt but that the
test will create great excitement, and the attend
ance on the occasion will be immeLse-much
greater than on any former similar occurrence.
Major II. Stannard is the general favorite 30 far,
but as there are several Others entered whose
prowessis is highly spoken Of, there is every reason
to believe that he will not have such easy work as
he has hitherto had if he does come of the con-
queror The betting already is pretty brisk, the
field the favorite. Some thousands, no doubt, will
change hands on the occasion.

To The Hon. G. M. TRouP:
| Dear Sir-As State Rights men who
have ever looked up to you as politician
of stern integrity not to The glory Of Caesar,
but the elEare Of Rome, and who ever
regarded you as the fair exponent of our
creed-now that new issues are being
made-now when the Northern Wings are
congratulaling the South for having .'ac
knoirledgsd and agreed to the great doc.
trine Of protection TO the labor Of the country
is a political arion, ef The highest impor-
tance"-now that Congressman from The
South have for the first time openly ad-
vocated and supported the protective poll
cy, and now hope that the people will
sustain them in this monentous change.
Believing that you never swerved to the
right or left of sound Republican principles
that after having Stood al the helm of
State at time that tried mans souls;
warding off with the sovereign arm of
Georgia the combined shafts Of federalism
that were aiming 10 crush the liberties of
the country by destroying State distiuc-
,ions and consolidating all power in the
General Governmen-ihat now in yotr
retirement nothing could induce you 10
falter or recede from your long cherished
opinions. we call upon you who yet regard
The doctrines Of our party in '33, which
were practically enforced by youyselfin '25,
as the only guarantees TO constitutional
liberty, and respectfully ask your views
upon the following questions.
lst. Is not the tariff Of '42 faithless
violation Of The compromise act Of '33, un-
constitutional, unequal in its operations in
taxing the many for the benefi, of he few
and prejudicial to Southern rights and
Southern interests.
Cd. Are those Representatives Of Geor-
sia who have advocated and voted for The
continuation Of The tariff of 1912, worthy
of The suppor! Of Republican State Rights
men?
81. What policy should Stale Rights men
Of the South pursue in our present difficult
circumstances.

The following extracts are from a re-
cent letter Of the Hon. John 2. King, for
meriy Senator in Congress from Geos.
gias and now, ke believe, President Of the
Georgia Rail Road Bank; they illustrate
the operation Of the present tariff:
The facts are, that the tariff of l641l,
for nearly year after its passage, had Ill
tie or no effect on prices, either OF domes-
tic or foreign goods. The demand was
small, and some extra importations were
made whilst The duties were low, in anti
cipation Of a protective tariff. In the
spring of ls43, however, The protected ar
licles began TO rise, and during the sum-
mer Of that year they rose from 20to SO
per cent, and that advance is sill mafn-
tained. Shirting that / bought for 81
cents in l843. for my negroes, I now pay
10 cents for, and am assured by the SELL
er that they cost him 6 cents. Negro
clothing that fpaid 90 cenls for in ls43, ]
have priced and find it now so CENTS
Cheap calicoes that sa6 sold 10 the
spring of lS43, in New York, al S cents,
/ am now; assured, by Wing merchants
here, would cost II or12 cents. q Ganny.
baggins that sold III July, 1872, at. IA
cents, is now worthsI believe, 20 or 22;
cents, &c. These q facts" come within
my own knowledge, or are derived from
Whig merchants of this city. In fact.
they are SO notorious that they need no
confirmation. These are the facts in COM
pairing prices, since the tariff had time to
operate. -
"Wheu Mr.. Clay was in Canada, a
few years since, he or his son, or BOTH.
purchased some clorhing in MonIreal.--
The price waa SO low that Mr.. Clay was
perfectly astonished, and mentioned the
TACT 10 his friends. Ina fewililes Of the
United Sta,estline, he could replenisi his
wardrobe for about ONE. halt what il would
cost him if he crossed over There was
no mystery about it. Mr.; Claycaused the
