A SADDLEBAGs GRoCERY.-1'he Grand
Jury of Cass county, Ga, made the following
presentmcnl at Il late term of the Court:
"rhe Grand Jury of the present week
would also most respectfully represent it as
their opinion, that something like saddle
bags grocery has been kept by the superior
Court of this week, in the august parsonage
of one of the constables, without license;
wherefore we cannot safely conclude that the
Temperance cause is highly esteemed by that
arm of the law, and while we exonerate the
Court, from knowledge even Of this newly
established feature in the tratlic,s we must
set our faces against all saddle bag groceries,
and more especially when kept by consta-
tiruar constable we have concluded thus to
cannonize, and hand his deeds Of consum-
mate cffrontery and shame, down to future
constablcs, rs Il wcll-markcd instance Of cil-
fm contempt Of CourL We did not see the
liquor, but we did see the saddlc.ba .bags-and
it is the deliberate opinion of this Jury that
no other Jury ever saw Il pair of saddle bags
as much like jug of brandy bcfore-tor
they smelL like the jug had been broken. Now
constable is quite small appendage to the
Court any how, and whcT he grows 50 beau-
titulIv less, as to become part and parcel of n
pair Of saddle bags, that smells just like
broken Jug of brandy, he attans to n station
so small in our eyes that we think he's Of no
use al dH."

THE POST.
ATHENS, FRIDAY, OCT, 90, 1855.

The RESULT IN OHIo.-The Cincinnati
COLUMBIAN, on the day of the election, an
iicipating the election of Chase, contcm-
plates that event as gloomy one,and fraught
with danger to the quietnde Of the country;
Indicating, at the same time, the duty Of
batrotc citizens, in view Of emergencies
which may arise:
The election of Mr.. Chase cannot fail to
be the sngal for fresh connections on the
subject of slavery. Designed rs public
insult to our brothers of the South, it can-
not fail to bcget some retribution or some re-
vengc, perhaps still more foolish and wicked; ;
and this in its turn is equally certain to bring
about on our part some fresh reciprOcation
of senscIcss hostility, that will provoke
hate upon hate, and wrong upon wrong, un,
Ill peace between the two sections of the
country shall become impossible, and moth
ing can ensue but that most terrible Of hu-
man events, a civil aud social war; war
Withoutan an aim, and without an end; in which
both parties would be so guilty and so mad,
that the wise and the good could, with diff
Guilty, tell which side TO take, or how not TO
deplorc the issue whatever it might be.
Let things, however go as unhappiy MS
they may, the path of public duty is ever
plainly before us We can still contend
inanfilly for all good principles, for all sound
measures for ali honest men. II the coun-
try wanders into false policy or suffers it,
self to be- mislcd by bad men,we have but the
more to be true when others are false. Moth
ing but constancy TO the public cause; moth
Ing but Il devotion to it that grows only the
frmcr at every defeat, nothing but those vir-
tues of the citizen which are rarest just when
they are needed most, can retrieve public ai.
fairs and bring us back to better day.
LAND SPEcULAToRs AMONG THE ORR
GALS OF NEBRAsKA.-The Nebraska CITY
News has the following on the land specula-
ting procivities of Mr.. Pierce's Territorial
officials:
The present national administration reno.
we'd Gov Rccder, they say, because he was
guilty of fraudulent land speculatons. And
I've are informed, by private letter from Wash
ington city, that those speculations were the
sole cause of his dccapitatiOn. We hope
that such is the case, and we hope further,
that President Pierce and his Cabinet will
continue TO investigate the land speculations
of all officials in all Territories, not Forgetting
Nebraska, until the last rotten rascal among
them is ''holcd and smoked out" II this
administration has become so rigid and An.
drew Jacksonish rs to garrote the specializing
officials who crawl over it, and eat into its
reputation as maggots crawl over and eat in
to carton, we hope that its Investigations may
reach certain official robbers in this Territory;
for, if the old plots for dcirauding the people
and making money for themselves, which
were planned by one, and have been carried
ont by two officials in this territory, during |
the past year, could be ripped up, the corrup
tion would oozc out.

900, acres; the amount to be sold, lying along

it will be for the advantage of the Territory,
as blocking the game Of mere spectators,
and giving actual settlers better chance.

TALKERs.-Undoubied the highest per-
sonal accomplishment in the world is to be
good talker. With the charm alone John
Wilkes, though prodigy Of personal ugli-
ness, was the most attractive man of his
time. at takes me-" he said to Lord Sand.
which, "just fifteen minutes to take my face
off," 1t was this power, and not his poems,
nor his dictionary, nor his heavy letters from
the Hcbrdes, that made DIR Johnson the au-
tocrat of his day among men of culture, and
will keep his memory green while the En-
glish language remains to prove that, in spite
of his boorishment and insolencc and absurd
preludices, he was the most charming talker
the world has seen. 1t was this power, more
than all others, that made the friends of Co.
leridge forget that he was deficient in manly
honor (the most fatal of defects, that he was
4 slave TO and of the worst Of vices, and won
for him not merely the admiration, but the
love and esteem of all who listened 10 his
wonderful utteranccs. In our own country
there have not been as yet many notable con-
versationists. Wa are nation Of speech
makers, but good takers are exceedingly
rare. We talk enough (God knows), but
good takers require more culture, more leis-
IRE, more repose than we shall know for
many years to come.
