after the next Presidential campaign for the
democratic party will have served out its time
and will be defunct.
From the signs of the times about us-from
the vote of ls4S you please, in this State, for
President-the hard shells ought to be able to
beat their adversaries Of the Verplank ticket
by very decided majority in November 1t
they do we may expect some ministerial
changes in Washington, and speedy rise in
the political market of the national, original,
compromise democrats If they fail-but let
them do their duty and they will not fail. The
game is in their hands, and all is to be lost or
won.
Gov. COBB AND THE FRENCH MIssIoN.--lt is a
conceded point, we believe, that the French
mission was some time since rendered to the
distinguished Union democrat OF Georgia, Gov.
Cobb. This might we'll have been conjectured
from the long and private interview said to have
taken place at the Aston House between the
President and the Governor Of Georgia, on the
18th of July last, and from the subsequent visit
Of Governor Cobb to Washington, by special in
vitation of the President. We think it quite
unfortunate for the President and the admins
tration that the Governor could not have been
persuaded to have danced attendance upon the
French Emperor for the next four years. Be-
sides being young man OF fine talent it is &C.
nerally conceded that Gov. Cobb has tact and
management necessary qualities for diplo-
matist OF the highest order, added to that Of
being man Of large fortune Having repu-
tation. too, not only in Washington, but in
Georgia, for entertaining handsomely, he would
in all respects have been the man for st. Cloud.
Then, why don't he go?
1t is related by his friends that when ap-
preached by the administration on this subject
his reply was strictly characteristic Of the man.
His friends, he observed-the national Union
democrats Of the South, but more especially of
Georgia-had been entirely overlooked by the
administration. but were under the weather at
home and that while such was the case he
would never desert them, or accept any Office
that would remove him from amongst them,
until their rights were respected This is GER
tainly sticking by ones friends. Where is the
other man that would have refused the mission
to st. Cloud on such grounds?
It's whispered about in Georgia now, as we
learn, that Gov. Marcy is to be sent to France,
that Mr. Guthrie is to resign, and that jeff
Davis is to return to Mississippi to enter the
field against Foote for the Senate that Cobb
is to be made Premier and, with new material
in place Of the decomposed parts, a new ma
tional cabinet is to be formed that will save
the administration save the democratic party
and save the country. Who knows? Soft
shells, to the rescued
NOTICE TO THE LADIEs-While Kossuth is
fomenting continental revolutions in conjunc
tion with the socialist and red republican refil-
gees in London, his sisters have established
themselves in New York, for the practical bust
ness Of their selfsupport, as will be seen from
the following circular, laid upon our table,:
Madame KossUTn RurrKAr, Madame KossUrn
MEsZLoNYI, sisters, [of Kossuth,1 take the liberty
to inform the ladies that their establishment is
now opened at 751 Broadway, New York, compri-
sing point gaze, eiupure en- point Iaigue, gupure

sleeves, underbandkerchefs mantillas, wells, colt
fures, embroideres in batiste and muslin, Alexan-
mansllas and aprons ribbons and fancy articles all
of which offered at the most reasonable prices.
They are also provided for the preparing OF ladies',
dresses mantillas, jaquets Caracas s0rtce de Balls,
aud children's clothing, and promise the punctual
execution Of all orders they may receive and guar

We thus publish the above freely, because
we consider this case an extraordinary excep-
ton to our general rule of excluding all adver-
Using notices from our editorial columns.
These ladies have suffered in the cause Of re-
publcanism. They are exiles here where they
have set a worthy example to all other exiles
in practical industry. We commend them,
therefore, to the public patronage.
Mr. DIX DOWN IN VIReINIA-The Richmond
Enquirer, in its remarks upon the letter of
Mr.. Dix to that paper, (Which we published
yesterday, denying certain charges Of abolition
ISM says
But Mr.. Dix is not content simply to request the
publication Of his letter in the columns Of the En-.
qUirer. He makes up an issue OF fact with the edi-
tors Of this paper and challenges us to produce the
proof of our allegations in respect to his past course
Thus are we driven to exposition Of the political
career of Mr.. Dix. The duty may be dsagreeable,
but we shall not shirk it. We mean to do Justice TO
Mr Dix. II, from thorough examination of his re-
cord it shall appear that Mr. Dix has not been such
as we represent him, we will make all possible atone
ment for our injustice. But it, the contrary, the
exposure should impair even the slight claim which
Mr.. Dix now has on the confidence of the Southern
democracy, he must remember that he himself pro-
vokes the investigation which results in his disconf
ture.
We are afraid that in this summing up it will
appear that Mr.. Dix ran as the freesoil Buffalo
candidate for Governor of New York in ls48;
but we shall see. 1T is a very pretty quarrel
as it stands" Nothing like harmony after all
