- A 0eoSefs paper says. BY the follow
ing extract from decentralization 10 the Federal
Unioss, it seeuls tAaf Mt Cobb Is absent from
MilledgsviIle on Trip to the Cherokee region
not, we presume, for the sale of State bonds, a
it ID here suggested, but to look out for the in
terests Of the State road:
His Excellency, Gov. Cobb, understand,
failed to effect a sale Of the State bonds at the
North, and in the exercise Of his patriotic zeal
in sustaining the credit Of the STATE" the gov
ernor left the seat OF government for Atlanta
and Cherokee Immediately after the adjournment
Of the Democratic convention. Has he gone
there to effect this desirable object? With his
efforts, ID it not probable large number of cap
itasts from that section may be brought down
to the constitutional Union convention, and of
that sort Of spectators, who will under his ad-
vice and direction compete successfully with the
Toombs and Stephens branch of Constitutional
Union fnanciers? If 80, the bonds will certainly
be taken and forthwith sent TO the Baltimore
convention.
MISSISSIPPI WIG STATE CONVENTION
compliance with very general request, We an
nounce that the Wings of Mississippi will hold
State convention in Jackson on Monday, the
third of May next, to appoint delegates to the
national Wing convention to be held in Phila-
delphia, and to nominate Wing electoral ticket
for the State of Mississippi. The Wings in
every county in that State are respectfully urged
to hold meetings and appoint sufficient num-
Der of delegates to insure good representation
in the State convention.
"Whig papers in the State are requested to
publish the above, 80 that there may be concert
and unity OF action in the party"
In publishing this call, the Vicksburg Wing
gives some reasons for the movement
There is no Wing who can fail to perceive
that if Georgia, Mississippi and Alabama will
send delegates to the National convention, that
the nomination of Mr.. Fillmore is certain, and If
nominated we have no hesitation in saying that
we believe he will be elected--nay more, we
believe that he can get the vote of Mississippi
over the candidate who will probably be pre-
scented by the Baltimore convention.
We have trespassed upon our limits, and
will close by saying to the Wings of Mississippi
that they cannot expect to vote for Wing can
didate for the Presidency unless an electoral
ticket is presented; nor can they ask the national
Wing convention TO present the favorte candi-
date to the South unless they join them in the
nomination. The Wing press of the State is
noW almost unanimous in favor Of the move
ment, and as the convention will certainly be
held, we hope that the Wings will unite har
moniously upon the propriety, time and place,
aud send their delegates"

"The Southern Wings will not consent to

Queer DOlngs Among the AbolItI0nlsts oil
BOstOn

series of meetings was held at the Melo.
deOn yesterday, by the Abolitionists, in com
memoration ofthe departure of Thomas Simms,
the slave of Mr.. Potter, of Georgia, who was
surrendered to his owner and departed from this
city on the 18th of April, 1851. In the MORN
ing, there was medley of religious exercises,
conducted by the Rev. Theodore Parker and
others and in the afternoon and evening,
speeches were made by Francis Jackson, Charles
Remond, Wendell Phillips, William L. Garrison,
and other individuals of the antslavery school.
We heard a portion Of Mr.. Phips's address in
the evening but 1t contained not one idea that
We have not heard him advance fifty times be-
fore, clothed in quite as ferociOus language. Mr.
Webster, as usual, was visited with a round of
those bad expressions which the delirious ora
tors of the Abolition forum know so we'll how
to utter. Mr.. Phillips made an estimate of the
amount of sum and substance, Of the anti sav-
cry sentiment prevailing at this time in Massa-
chusetts. He said there was enough to make
certain men behave themselves-to make the
Legislature pass resolutions which meant nothing
to get Sumner into the Senate, and abide his
silence thereto get Rantou into the House of
Representatives, and observe his attempt to lie
himself out of his positions but this was not
enough. This would not be sufficient to save
the commonwealth; so he concluded by aban-
doning his peace doctrir es, and intimating that
fugitive slaves must hereafter rely upon their
own right arms He enogized the courage
which undertook and executed the slaughter of
Mr.. Gorsuch at Chrstiana and said the people
here would not arouse until Marshal Tukeys
life ended In a similar tragedy,
To these wild teachings an elderly gentleman
in the front Of the hall took exceptions. He
pronounced them shocking in the extreme, and
he admonished his friends to turn away from
them-to avoid the bowie knife, the dagger, the
pistol, and the dose of poison--to trust their
cause to God and not to Massachusetts and the
Abolitionists. This old gentleman was subse-
quently called to account by person who was
introduced as Rev. Mr.. Weatherbee, and who
asked him if he believed in prayer? The ell
derby gentleman replied, sharply, that he did, but
that he had no faith in the "carnal weapons
which the gentleman on the platform (Mr. Phil
lips,) had the impudcnce to encourage" This
questioning and answering was kept up for
some time to the neral joy of large and
good natured audience-a third part of which
attended this banquet of emotions as much for
pleasure, as men visit the theatre for the pur-
pose of hearing fool recite nonsense on the
stage.
There was no real disturbance at any Of the
meetings. Some rude boys, in the evening,
amused themselves by throwing beans through
tube at the heads Of few coorcd men who
selves by cheering and Kissing the orators in
proportion as their speeches gave pleasure or
displcasure to the multitude.

MONEY MAKEs THE MARE Co."
This venerable sdsge seems equally true
whether the animal be harnessed to dirt cart,
or the wheels of government. She wont stir a
peg until the wheels are well CREASED. This
appears especially evident in the proceedings Of
Congress. Subjects involving great national
interests, foreign and domestic, hang fire like
old rusty muskets. They are brought forward,
calls made for information which if given is
never acted upon, and the affair consigned to
oblivion, Unless money or political capital can
be made out of it some way or other. But if a
bill or resolution distributing money or lands,
and especially books, is brought forward, the
old mare at once feels the spur, neighs like a
young colt, kicks up her heels, and canters off
as merry as stage hack when he comes in
sight of the well known sign ofsgood entertain
ment for man and horse" If any "undeveloped"
old fogie of a country member comes limpins
argue the matter by appeals to that obsolete
instrument the Constitution, in the House OF
Representatives, he is allowed FIVE minutes to
talk about something else according to rule, or
say his prayers before being guillotined by the
previous question-"off with his head-so much
for Buckingham
Almost the only exception to this uniform
course of the old mare is when the drivers are
not agreed as to the division of the spoiIs. 1t
is then that patriotism awakes from its slum-
bers, and the ghost of that long buried obsolete
livion. The old mare plants her feet as stiff as
poker; the log must roll an inch further and
the dirt cart, or the government machine stands
stock still until this vital question is settled
Truly there is much truth in old proverbs.
AN AUNCiENTE PREPHEsIE FROM RARE OLD
PRINTED BOOK
When legislators bold invade,
The laws which they themselves have made;
When the parson 'ganst the Bible breaches,
And modest virgins wear the breeches;
When women scorn domestic cares
And bold intrude on men s affairs,
Aspiring with mistaken pride
The war horse of the world to ride,
Then will wild chaos come again,
And Eve with her old serpent reign
second time will pay the price
Of wit, by loss Of Paradise.
The world, tail foremost, will advance,
Like freedom in regenerate France;
BY going backwards all come right,
And men grow blind by too much light.
