Funeral Honors to Mr. webster.

We give up large space in columns to-day to full
account of the funeral obseques OF Mr. Webster and TO
public addresses delivered in the city of his residence in
illustration of his public services and character. We
deem especially fit that this record of the last honors Of
the great champion of the whg cause should appear in
our columns the morning OF the very day whose
believe, is destined to upon the total wreck and
ruin Of that misguided and pernicous organization which
now styles itself the whig party-an organization by
which MIR Webster sacrificed, and against which
his lifelong devotion to whig principles compelled him
a the close of his days his unfaerng and i'm
pSessve protest The solemn obsevances and the elo-
quen words of eulogum, with which the form of Daniel
Webster consigned the tomb may well fix the aen
lion of the country the moment when the nationality Of
thewhR party 10 be buried with him. and when the
great hand OF the people is stretched forth in its peaceful
power execute final and just judgment of doom upon the
phrenzied seclionalism which, against Mr. Websters
last and grandest efforts, has now usurped its name and
place!
From the addresses pronounced upon the occasion of
MIR. Websters death, we have selected, as most worthy
OF public attention, those of the Hon. Edward Everett
and Hon. Rufus Choae. Each OF them is master
piece in its kind and each is emnendy characteristic OF
its authors genius To these add the appropriate re-
marks of Mr. Justice Curtis of the Supreme Court OF The
United States.

mocrscy Of GeorRia y s'rone enough TO carry
their regular ticket for Pierce and King, against
the utside Cobb ticket tbs third Webster ticket
and the fourth Scott ticket, and the Democracy
will do their whole duty in the effort; but what

narty will bear but one interpretation--tha Of
base and selfish treachery to the Democratic
cause.
Pardon me this long trespass in your inde-
pendent columns. As said the Southern De-
mocracy have no avenue here to the Democratic
ear of the country, and unless through your
occasional courtesy, their voices must be wholly
s.ifed. | hope, however, that before long we
shall have trumpet of our own, through which

Mr.. Webster's Hungarian bull, on his farm at
Franklin, nearly killed Mr. John Taylor, the
tenant, a few days ago: The animal seized him
on his horns, nAicting wound in his thigh five
inches long and three inches deep, threw him over
his head disloca.ing his shoulder, and turning up
on, would doubtless have killed him on the spot,
had not several men rushed into the yard to his
escus.

REPUBLICS NOT ALWAYS UNGRATEFUL.-C. b.
Stewart, chairman of committee on Private
Land Claims, made report week before last in
the Texas Legislature F; of which the following
are extracts:
Your committee on Private Land Claims, to
whom was referred the petition of Mrs. Susan j.
Dooley, wife of Little John Dooley of Rusk
county, have dooley considered the same.
Petitioner states that che has been twice mar
ried, that by her fret husband she had seven
children, and by her last husband a good many.
Recently, says her petition, she has been made
the happy mother of three fine children at Que
birth.
Mrs. Dooley prays for section of land for
each of her children, but your committee believe
that half section of land for each of them
would be sufficient evidence of the countrys ca
TEEN for her distinguished services. and in all
probability prove sufficient inducement to sim
liar exertion on the part of other ladies who love
their bosom lords az we'll.
Committee, therefore, report bill granting to
the children Of Mrs. Dooley half section, 800
acres of land each, and recommend it to the
most favorable consideration of the House.

This article appeared on the 18th ult, two
days before the convention met. We have
seen a telegraphic history Of its proceedings.
The mongrel affair has fallen to pieces, and be-
come tripartte from the weight of it's discord-
ant materials. One part nominated Pierce and
King, and put up an electoral ticket in opposi
ton to the regular ticket which has for months
been flying at the mast head of every Demo
cratic paper in the State--it also manifested its
loyal Democracy by adopting resou tions laudd.
tory of the administration of President Fillmore,
and inviting that consistent % and dis,in.
guished Democrat! to visit the State of Geor-
gia. A second part of the hybrid recommended
third ticket in the persons of Webster and
Jenkins; and the third closed their Southern
eyes and and wriggled, incontinently, into the
meretricious embraces of Scott and Seward
| Now, wish to know, what business had Pierce
and King Democrats in such company az this
| What but mischief to Democratic interests can
possibly grow out of an opposition electoral
ticket? And what but treachery and selfishness
can be masked under such conduct?
By the laws of Georgia, majority is required
to chose an electoral ticket-faing in that, the
Legislature chooses. Now, suppose that through
the Vaccinations of Governor Cobb and the
Constitutional Union Democrats, there Is no
election by the people; Pierce and King are
placed in jeopardy in the State; for although
the Legislature has majority of Union men in
it, ii has also a n'cjority Of Wings. And mas
much as the Union coalition between the Wings
and the Cobbites is dissolved; inasmuch AZ the
Wings have already charged Cobb with treach-
cry in deserving their organization to go to Bal
timore, the Wing majority of the legislature OF
Georgia would feel itself under no obligations
to cast its vote in accordance with the wishes
