AN IMPORTANT DECISION was made one
day last week in our County Court, by
Judge MAGRUDER, which is likely to anec,
seriously the interest Of our farmers and
planters. The decision was made in the
case Of Pike g. .Nsaze (plaintif1s) VS.. Chan
der Sha1c (defendent.) Suit was brou ght
by the plaintiffs against the defendent to re-
cover the amount of certain draft, which
they said they had accepted and paid upon
the faith of promise by defendent to con-
sign to them certain produce, out of which
the mount of the draft was to be deducted.
The plaintiffs attempted loprove that the draft
was merely an accommodation, and not a
draft for value received; but in the absence
Of testimony to that effect, the counsel for
the defendent prayed the Court to instruct
the jury that the plaintiffs were not entitled
to recover, which prayer was granted, and
the Judge instructed the jury accordingly.
This decision must necessarily produce
charge in the usual mode of doing bust
ness, and make commission merchants much
more careful in future, in granting accom-
modations to their agricultural friends where
the mere promise of an individual is the
only security given.
DEMOCRATIC MEETING.-A large and
respectable meeting OF our Democratic fel-
low-citizens was held at the Court House
on Tuesday afternoon last, which was ad-
dressed by Major VIM. B. STONE, WILLIAM
MATTHEW'S, Esq, and ROBERT J. BRENT,
Esq. The last named gentleman occupied
the stand for little upwards of an hour in
reviewing his past connexion with the Inde-
pendent Taylor party in this State. He
charged upon Geu Taylor Inconsistency in
authorizing his friends from louisiana, in
the Philadelphia Convention, to withdraw
his name from the Presidential contest in
the event o: The nomination of my other in
divdual by that convention, and closed his
remarks by pledging his support for Cass
and Butler.
The meeting was conducted with much
harmony; the speakers were loudly cteer-
ed; and after passing resolutions approving
the proceedings of the Baltimore Convel-
ton, the meeting adjourned.
THE COMPROMISE BILL.-The portract-
ed discussion on the Bill from the Select
committee for the organization of Territorial
Governments, in Oregon, New Mexico and
California, was brought to close on Thurs
day morning at o'clock in the U. S. Sc
na,e-lhat body having been in session all
the previous night. The vote on the Bill
was So to %.
On Friday the bill was taken up in the
House of Representatives, and virtually re-
jec,ed by laying it on the table, with the
understanding that in it should not be taken
up again this session. The vote stood ll2
to 81, being majority of Is against the bill.

Her heart with kindness laden,

THEN cheeks with labor glow, O.
Fheir lips like rose-buds parting,
Serenest smiles bestow;
They gather health and beauty
From mornings early'breath;
They greet as choice and duty
The sunrise Of the heath;
They join with highest pleasure
The warDiers' e~erliest song;
They rambIe at their leisure
Their kindred flowers among.
A charm around them fingers,
A charm that wins and speaks,
Painted by angels fingers,
Upon their blooming cheeks 90
A maiden pure and gladstone
Let my companion be-
A smile for all, q frown for nome

Keep it before the PEOPLE!

AtCp III pCIUIt sUG ffOPlt
That Willard Fillmore has distinctly
disavowed the slightest wish or desire to
interfere with the question of slavery in
the United States.
Keep it also before the people, that
Lewis Cass proclaimed in his place in
the Senate, that he would have voted for
the wilmot proviso, had it been brough,
forward during the session of 1916.
Keep tbefore the people, that MiIlard
Fillmore is denounced by the Abolition
lists as a traitor and a d%oughSface, because
he recognises the institution of slavery,
and brought a bill into congress to pay
a master the value Of a runaway slave.
Keep it also before the people, that
Gen. Cass boasts that be never was a
shareholder, that he detests slavery, and
would be delighted to see it abolished, if
it could be done safely and p~eaceabIy.
Keep it before the people, that the De-
mocratic papers dare not inform their
readers that Willard Fillmore voted 10
favor of the first of the Atherton resolu-
tons, which declares that Congress has
no Jurisdiction over the question of sIa-
very in the United States.
Keep it also before the people, that
Gen. Cass has proclaimed the monstrous
opinion that the question of slavery in the
newly acquired territory must be settled
by the people thereof; thus giving to the
Indians, Mesizoes, Zamboes, aud other
colored Inhabitants Of such territory, the
right and power to exclude citizens of
the South from establishing themselves
with their property on the soil.
Keep it before the people, that Willard
Fillmore has always been a frank, open
and consistent politician, that he has not
two sets of opinions one for the North
and the other for the South; thai he does
moi. like Van Buren,, boast of being ga
northern man Nth southern principles"
nor make professions at the eleventh hour
to gull the South.
Keep it also before the people, that
southern democrats are endeavoring to
hold up Lewis Cass as ga Northern man
scith Southern principles" just as they did
Van Buren,, and that Lewis Cass IS aid
ing to propagate the fraud, by causing to
be circulated two editions of his life. one
intended to reconcile shareholders to his
support, and the other to ingratiate HIM
self with Northern anti-slavery men.
Keep it also before the people, that
Lewis Cass never was regarded in any
other light than as a violent opponent of
slavery and a recognized champion of
the Wilmot proviso, and that he only mo-
difed his opinions when he became the
candidate #. the Presidency; that even
now he has neoer written or uttered one
syllable against the principle of the Pro-
uiso; and that when Intercepted by his
northern friends on the subject, he pre-
tends that the noise and confusion preuent-
ed him from explaining his yiews.
Keep it before the people, that Mr..
Yancy, a Southern democrat, and dele.
gate from Alabama to the national de-
mocratic convention, refused to sustain
Lewis Csss, pronouncing him a political
weataereoek, aalI things unto all men, an
Abolltionist at heart, and false to the
South"
