~ We clip from the Southern Standard, a
leading Mississippi journal, the following very COM
plimentary notice Of the " 7saneSSean Abroad" by
our townsman, r. W. McGAvocK, Esq:
eve have been more than delighted, in the per-
usal of a new work just from the press o. Redfeld
entitled Tennessean Abroad" The Author,
Col. McGavock, is a member of the Nashville Bar.
He possesses qualities which cannot fail to secure
him high rank in that most honorable Of the Pro-
LESSONS.
The chief merit of this work, consists in the
faithful. and accurate account of what was useful
and interesting in the different countries which
were visited by the traveller He passed no at
tractiye object Of nature or art, without stopping to
examine it. The impressions which these objects
made upon his mind are conveyed to the mind Of
the reader in a clear and fecitous STYLE We regard
it therefore as book of great merit because it fur
nishes to the intelligent aud inquring reader much
useful information, well arranged, containing no.
thing superluous,-the whole written in q chaste
and graphic manner. His description of the couu-
tries over which he travelled the manners and Gus
toms Of the people of different nstous whom be
vistel, the present condition of society," contrased
with that Of our own free and happy Republic the
ancient Castle Of the chivarous and harghty Nor
man, and Modern Edfces and improvements of
note, is accomplished with such vigor and spirit,
that all that the traveller has looked upon in won
der and delight is seen by the reader himself in
spring him with the same thrilling and interesting
emotions-and he rises up from the persual OF the
book with the advantages without the fatigue and
expense of a two years journey, over Europe, Asia
and Africa.
We cheer!uly recommend the Z" TsnneSssan
abroad to all who wish to refresh their minds
with look upon England and France as they now
are, the beautiful Rhine, the snow capped Alps,
and classic Italv in the deem blue Mediterranean
the land OF the Phareos and the Nile-the Ara
bian Desert. Jerusalem, The Holy Sepulcbre and the
shrines of Palestine. "The cities Of the Orient and

We learn from the Charlottesville Advocate,
that the jury in the case of VIM. Humphreys
charged with placing distractions on the Central
Railroad track which caused the death Of Nunally
in August last, brought in verdict Of 'not guilty"
on Saturday last The Advocate says there Is
but little doubt as to the guilt of the prisoner
The jury was satisfied of his gult,and the Judge
himself, when the verdict was rendered, told the
jury that he was satisfied that the prisoner was
guilty of the offence charged but that they as ju-
rors had returned such verdict as the rules of
evidence and the strict construction OF criminal
law required and he expected.

Postmaster General Campbell.

Mr. Vespasian Ellis, late editor of the Washa
ington Organ, used the following language in the
course of an address which he delivered on the
4th inst in Washington city:
"rhe Pope's Nuncio to Spain, before the Cab
inet.of the President was known to the public,
here. declared, in Madrid, that the present Post!
master General, Catholic, ,couId be q member
of The Cabinet Of General Pierce! There is 9th
er and abundant proof to confirm the opinion that
this appointment was secured to the Romish HER
archy before The Catholic uote ,gas cast for the
present incumbent"
The Unlon denounced this allegation as ''false
in form, false in general, and false in detail."-
MIR. Ellis thereupon published card giving his
authority for the statement. He says Mr.. Ray
ner, of North Carolina, declared substantially,
and upon the authority of Mr.. Barringer, late U :
niled Sta les Minister TO Spain, what is contained
in the first branch of the extract. Mr. Barringer
is called upon to settle the point.
In regard to the second brarch of the allegation
Mr.. Ellis says the confrmatory proofs necessari-
ly circumsantial. He mentions one circum-
stance, and others will be forthcoming
''That circumstance, as publicly stated at the
time was, that a committee of the Democracy of
Pennsylvania waited upon Gen. Pierce on hearing
that Judge Campbell was to have seat in his
Cabinet, and demonstrated against such selection,
demonstrating, by facts and figures, that he had
not the confidence of the Democracy of Pennsyl-
vania-and that General Pierce responded substau-
tally as follows, 10 wit: Gentlemen, it is too
late-that matter was arranged before was made
President
'.There are hundreds in this city who can testi-
fy that such was the response of Gen. Pierce, as
puLLclY stated al the time"
