sadie thls doubtful clam upon the State OF Geor
gia, the next game in the shutting of the cards was
to get an expression from the Legislature that
Congress should provide for it, Whereupon Mr.
BERRIEy offered the following preamble and reso-
luton:
"UhfTcas, BY the Treaty of 1913, large tract oil
land situated in the then Colony Of Georgia was
coded by the Creek and Cherokee Indians to pay of
by the sale thereof the debts due to sundry persons
called Indian Traders and before the full execution
Of said Treaty the War Of the Revolution began,
which suspended all further action under such
Treaty; Ind rhereqs GEORGE GALPHIs. who was
an Indian Trader under such Treaty. had claim
amounting to nine thousand nine hundred and
ninety one pounds fifteen shlllings snd FIVE pence,
which has never been paid. owing to the breaking
out OF said War; Anf uhe-e0s, most Of the land
comprehended in said Treaty was part Of the
Continental Soldlery, under the authority OF said
state BE il, therefore,
"Rcsoiced, by the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives Of the State Of Georgia, That orr eena-
tors and Representatives in Congress from the
State of Georgia be requested to urge upon the
Government Of the United States the pay ment u
the claim OF GEoRGE GALPBTS and that his Ex-
cellency the Governor be requested TO forward to
our Senators and Representatives each, q copy Of
the sforegoing preamble and this resolution"
Mr.. WALTERS moved to lay the same on the ia
bic for the balance Of the session Whereupon the
yeas and nays were demanded, and the motion of
Mr.. WALTERS ras carried by vote Of &c 10 50,
Thus it appears from the Record Of Georgia her
selE that not only was this claim repudated over

To our Albemarle friends, who have SO kindly
appreciated our humble efforts to show that the
principal danger to the Compromise plan of the
Senate results from the antagonistical attitude
which the Presidents recommendations have as
sumed through the authorized organs of the Ca
binet, we can only say that next to the reward of
an approving conscience, we prize most highly
such testimonials of the appreciation of upright
andintelligent men. If the Senate's Compromise
fall it will fail by the united efforts OF the Adolf
tionists, the Calhoun Democrats, and the Cabinet.
We shall certainly join neither wing of the Coali-
ton We have given our testimony, in all frank
ness, to the advisers of the President that he will
inevitably forfeit Southern support by allowing his
policy to be made use of to prevent the success OF
the Senate's plan. 1t is now our duty to declare
the belief thaasuch remonstrances from the South
ern Wing pre$s seem thus far to have had no eff
feet whatever fhe Free Soil Wings in the Sc.
nate are making the Presidents scheme theil
platform; and we fear there are only two North
ern Wing Senators who will have the firmness te
vote for the Compromise, when the Cabinet poll
cy is bidding for their support, and their consti
tuents tell them they want nothing more.

BRANDRETHS PILLS, AND THE BODY'S
WASTE.-To those candid men who honestly doubt
the truth ofhe Brandrethian SYSTEM would entreat
them to ponder well upon the following facts:
The food taken into the stomach is converted into
blood which vital stream flowing through all the rami-
fcaons of the system, not only mparts strength and
connuaes life, but actually forms and builds up
each and every part of the animal machine. If
blood therefore pure and healthy, the body which is
formed and supported by the blood be diseased
But there be in any part OF the body any Affection such
as bile or ulcer even bruise, the blood circulating
through that part takes up impure matters from the local
affection and carries it into the general SYSTEM This
is the cause often of sudden death persons OF fall hab
it, afflicted with biles, and who use mo medicine
the matter gets into the circulating system and chokes
up the fine blood vessels which supply the brain with
vitality, and life if bereft by lightning Now
this can be renlediedthe Brandreth Pills will, used
at these times take out all impure matters from the cir
cuation and save the general health at the same time
they are curing the local affections.
Oh how important it is to find that this subject
be we'll comprehended it would save many from tedi-
times of sickness, and often secure their services

its victim.

RoBBINa CoBBLER.T. Logan's cobbing shop on
Cary street was broken open Saturday night, and q
couple OF pair of shoes stolen therefrom Logan is
hard working coloured man, the shoes belonged to
customers and deep and poignant was his distress upon
being made acquainted with the calamity which had
fallen upon his shop. He determined to leave no
untred to detect the thief With this determine
alton he arose at early hour Sunday morning, re-
paired to the market houses, where negroes most do
congregate Sunday mornings, and carefully eyed
each negroes foot in the vain hope of catching the
heivng- ow with pair of the shoes upon his feet
This effort proved futile-nothing like either pair of
the lost shoes adorned any foot at either OF the market
housesbut Logan determined not to give it up so :,
he determined to make the of the Basin and
ried out his determination with great success.
Near the head OF the Basin Logan saw a stout lazy
looking free negro lying asleep on bench; he ap-
proached him, examined his huge feet and found them
comfortably encased in one pair of the missing shoes
Upon examining the fellow more closely, Logan
recognised him. 1t was Fleming Philips His next
step was to procure the aid Of the police. Having
heard of the proves of officer Warrington, (snd who
has not he determined to secure the aid of tina vi

Ger, lays the case before him, and in few minutes

the thief slept As soon officer Warrington reached
the spot he sezedthe thief by the collar ordering
him to get up, and apprisng him that he was in cssto
dy. The fellow spraig up, and dashed tho officer

He then put of at killing pace down the Basin. The
officer made hop and jump after the fugitive,
but it soon became manifest that if the capture
depended on the eetness the officer, the thief would
never be drought to condgn" So Logan pursued the
fugitive ran him down, and again surrendered him to
officer Warrington who this time took the precaution to
tie his prisoner and in that condition, led him to the
cage Logan succeeded in getting both pair of shoes
from the negro. The thief Yesterday brought be-
