are they the friends of that measure who deplore
the present condition of affairs-acknowledge the
futility and ineffcacy of those 'pcace measure" "
and yet cry out that the people must re-elect the
friends of the compromise to Congress, as the
friends of the Union, whilst all the opponents of
that measure are set down as political disnnioniss?
Extraordinary inconsstency-de deplorable madness!
From their own logic, as well as from our own
convictions, would say to the people of the South
elect no man to Congress who approved the
measures so fatal to the peace of the country
require your representatives to be pledged to other
doctrines than those which have produced such
discord in the land In fine, it is the duty, the
interest, the safety of the south to send to the
Federal Congress no more men of Compromises
of concessions, so prolific of evil. Their policy
has proved bad one--they must abandon it ere

DIED at her residence in Lowndes county, June 7th
after long and painful attack dysentry, Mrs MARY
ANN CANNON, consort of Rasha Cannon, deceased,
in the 5lst year of her age. She was native of Oar
lington district, S. C.
At sixteen years of age she professed religion and
joined the Baptist church, called during the Revolution
ary war, Wesh-neck, now Society Hill In 1886 she
moved and settled in this county She has left large
family of children and domestics to mourn the loss of
an afectionate mother and a kind mistress She has
left also friends and acquantances who loved
her much and will long cherish her memory for her
noble qualities She has been taken from her child
ren to whom she was devoted They were all pres
ent but one, and she was soon expected to complete
the family circle, long broken by her absence But
the mother is gone--the old homestead is deserted
it's doors and windows closed, and a few old faithful
servants left guard that once cherished home. In
shady grove by she sleeps in the dust by the
side ofher husbands almost newly made grave, hav-
ing preceded her only last June
Her calm and gentle spirit tempered like the winds
of the Heaven gided smoothly the unrippled
through lifes checkered way none ever bearing its
heavy trials or rude dsappointments with chris
tan submission none grateful for its Joyous sun
shines and blessings. She lived on till the evening OF
her life true and faithful christian and when the
night ofdeath shadowing her departing spirit she
pointed her weeping children to her Blessed Redeem
er, with counenance full of hope and confidence thai
she had treasures laid up in Heaven And now it is re-
gon that gives consolation to her heart stricken chill
dren that the world knows nothing of to think as they
gazed on that pensve brow for the last time on earth
that their sweet mother is far happier now in he

The "Terpid LIyer' Candidate.

Notwithstanding Gen. FREEMAN, in December
1850, appended his name to an address setting
forth that the South had obtained all that Missis
sippi demanded in the resolutions of October 1849
and is running for Congress on the merits of the
swindling adjustment scheme, together with such
capital as the humbug cry of ''disunion" affords
we say notwithstanding all this, in a speech in
Raymond, on the 18th of September last, he de-
nounced the Compromise measures with great Sc
verify, and asserted that Southern men who would
not be in favor of resisting them had ''torpd liv
ers'' and were insensible to wrongs and insults to
their own section.
Can't he enlighten the public mind as to the
cause of his change ?-what wrought the wonder
full conviction ?-what has caused has oliver to
become ''torpid?" Without attempting to solve
the mystery, we place our flends abroad in pos
session of his publicly expressed opinions in Sep
tember last that they may compare them with his
present declarations -MSsiSsippian.

displayed among us the other day, would recoil
from the utterance of much that fell with an easy
grace from the lips of the honorable Senator from
Kentucky; and the honorable gentleman from
Ohio, Mr., Chase, I am confident is too moder-
ate and forbearing in his temper ever to deliver
such philippe as this against the whole system
Of domestic slavery and against the efforts of the
southern States of the Confederacy to protect
themselves against menaced aggressons Sir, l

Foote endorsing INC speech cf Senator Clemens

Mr.. Clemens of Alabama, spoke against the resolu-
tons introduced by Henry Clay, and think his eff
fort the brilliant and pointed that those resolu-
tons produced. Certain we are that speech was re-
ceved throughout the South with marked favor and it
was everywhere commended and complimented. To
prove still further the consistency of Senator Foote
we give short extract from his speech endorsing Mr..
Clemens.
'Sir, had the honorable Senator confined him
self to the propounding of terms of settlement,
however unfair and oppressive to the South, or
had he been contcnted to advocate the resolutions
all his well known eloquence, should not have
been disposed to complain of him in the least.
Though certainly concur with my esteemed friend
from Alabama, who has spoken to-day with a
strength and brllancy seldom if ever surpassed in
this body, in all that he has said touching the true
character and effect of the resolutions of the Sena-
tor from Kentucky though certainly agree with
the Senator from Alabama, that these resolutions
yield up the whole ground of controversy to our
insatiate adversares; though the speech of the
honorable Senator from Kentucky, in support of
these resolutions of his, was, in some respects,
highly Objectionable, both in phraseoogy and in
substance yet | could have borne all this patiently
and did do so. | could have remained silent or
contented myself with a solemn protest against his
course. But, sir the honorable Senator from
Kentucky has thought proper to play the censor
upon this occasion. He has deeared himself autho-
rlzed tc disapprove in strong and pointed language,
of what has been said by southern Senators rela-
tive to the dangers which are now so fercely men
acing the Union, and those dire results which all
must at last perceive will be the inevitable fruit of
that aggressive policy against which the South has
been 50 long and SO zealously contending.'

This is to testify, that about the first week of
the present month of March, lS44 of my children
about three years of age, attacked with most e-
crutiang and violent pains the little fellow made us
(hs mother and myself) sensible that the entire pain
was in about his little stomach-his agony was in
descrbabe, and having applied to our nearest neigh
bor, (lIr Martn) from whom expected to get some
Medicine was assisted by his son. who proceeded to
Sidney, and procured bottle of 'B. A. Fahhestocks
Vermifuge" the only one, believe, in town, and gave
the child three teaspoonful i'll the space of many
hours. Shortly afterwards to our great establishment,
taco hundred and ftteght worms, measuring from 10
TO IS inches in length, and bigger than large goose
quill, evacuated by the sufferer whose life, with
Gods assistance, thus wonderfully preserved.
The following morning, another child of mine, about
six years DID, rnsed the bottle which contained
ly half teaspooniuI of the medicine and drank it,
when the day he passed one hundred and forty
one worms, equally long and larger.
Such a valuable medicng cannot be too highly re-
commended, as | take this opportunity of making my

Ny Dear Sri am sorry to be obliged to de-
cline your invitation. 1t is not in my power to
mingle actively in the canvass which now interests
so warmly all friends of freedom, but though my
voice may not be heard my heart will be with you.
trhst no pains will be spared to secure the elec
ton of Mr.. Pafrey, the able and inflexible cand-
date of party His character commands the
admiration of ALT should command their votes
also. No person familiar with the public sent-
ment amongst US out of certain streets of Boston,
can doubt that whatever may be the profession of
politicians, his well known opinions on the vital
questions of the day, will find response in the
bosoms of a well known majority of the people of
this Commonwealth. His triumph, with that of
Mr. Rantoul in an adjoining district, will go far to
consolidate the opposition in Massachusetts, against
the existing whig national administration. Such
men, while serving the Union Loyalty and in the
spirit of their fathers, will never forget the true
principles of the constitution according to which
freedom, end not slavery, is not national, while
slavery, and not freedom, is sectional.
