One word to Dr. w B. Moffat, No. 336 Broadway,
N. Y. You are mistaken in your men, and have been
so informed repeatedly. Chapman & Smith never re-
ceived article of any description of you for sale
They were never your agents for the sale of
any merchandise drugs Of any description, and con-
sequently never received single dollar belonging to
you, or to any of your agents. One word more, DR..

dicine. Those gentlemen responsible to you as

Uncle Toms Cabin.

Our readers will remember that we reviewed recent
ly through our columns, fiction by Mrs. H. Beecher
Stowe, bearing the above That review has OBJ
tanned wide circulation at the North, and has drawn
out some singular comments from the press. This
was not unexpected by us in fact, we felt assured
that if it was spread cut before the people the North
it would draw upon its philosophy angery comments
However amid this war of words, the review stands
as yet, wholly unanswered. Boston paper has seen
proper to throw down the glove to us, and without
wishing to enter the conroversaist arena our fixed
opinions of the morality of slavery are such, that
cannot let the Hessan pass without giving him very
thorough drubbng-we shall do it in manner and in
a style that he will remember

Democratic State Convention.

In the last MtSS1SS1Ppldn find call for q State
Convention of the Democracy of this State The time
designated, the First Monday (the End day) of MAJ
neat meets our view to time and we are pleased to
see the time suggested by this press adopted.
We hope the people will move now in every county
in the State, and that they will select the best talent in
each county to represent them in convention We de-
sire harmony and union of action, and this can be at
tanned alone by full convention of men who are de-
termned to do WHAT right
In this connection have question to put to the
democratic editors in this district. 1t is this Shall
we as usual, hold District Convention for the pur-
pose OF nominating candidate for Congress- or shall
the candidate for this District be nominated by the
State Convention This point must be decided at
once, and definitely We ask the Aberdeen Democrat
the Houston Argus and the Carrolton Democrat to
speak out.
Some weeks since indicated our position on this
point. We are in favor of a District convention, and
the nomination by that convention of district can
didate, and should the State convention deem an en-
dorsement necessary it endorse the candidates put
forward by the District Conventions.
We are not inclined to be pugnacious about this
matter nor are we disposed open controversy but
shall oppose all efforts TO defeat the choice of this
Congressional district through the action of State
Convention Our columns are open to all who OPP
pose yiews-we shall hear them patiently, and an
swer them courteously.
We hope the press of this district will respond a,
once.

Oe5-The following quiet little thrust was handed to
us by young man, who, doubt, speaks in behalf of
suffering humanity and some of earth's angels
have been deprived ofthe power of throwing their sun
nv smiles over the path of the serner SEX upon very
interesting OCCASION can do no less, than give to
their champion voice ofretributon. Thus ne speaks:
Mr. Extraordinarily, caprcious fortune hath not
favored all of Gods creatures equally with the many
conyenences e else should never feel ourselves
at all dependent on friends. There are some in
stances however, in the present case, where the
laws of courtesy and poteness requires that should
accommodate some of those upon whom the smiles of
fortune have not been lavshed copiously. We un-
derstand that number ofyoung ladies and gentlemen
were expected atthe house of very worthy citizen Of
this county, some several miles from town, and that
several young ladies deprived of the pleasure of
being present grace the OCCASION in consequence of
the lack of the means of conveyance. The gentle
manly host must have been surprised at the arrival at
the door ofhs hosptabe mansion, of carriage loaded
with young and erusty old bachelors who, through
other motives than those which prompt to acts Of
generous courtesy had dubbed together and secured
the only eligible conveyance subject to public hire
We would not be understood to say, that these young
men devoid of courtesy to the fair sex upon all
occasions where it costs nothing. JEPTHA.
