~STAUNT0N SPECTATOR AND GENERAL ADVERTISER.

ical doctrines, Mr.. Keitt and other representa-
tiyes Of the Democratic party have the holiness
to get up before an intelligent audience and pirate
about conservation.
AT the conclusion of Mr.. Keitt's speech loud
and prolonged calls were made upon Col. Bald
win, of our town, who is now in Lewisburg at
tending the Court of Appeals. COL B. arose and
remarked that there was certainly some mistake.
he understood that the meeting was Democratic.
he did not belong to that party; he was an old
line Whig-a party that was not quite so dead
as Mr.. Keitt seemed to suppose. Mr.. Dennis
very promptly replied that it acas Democratic
meeting. Col Baldwins remarks afforded them
line chance to let him in the ring and have
reason to believe that he would have pitched in
If the opportunity had been afforded. If he had
done so, Mr.. Keitt would most assuredly have
been terribly wooded. Of course, however, the
Col. was not pressed into the service. In fact
Mr.. keitt's speech needed no reply. AS Boteler
said OF Wises harangues, "the thread of its YER
bosity was drawn out longer than the staple Of
its argument" But l must conclude. More
anon-perhaps. l.. w.

EiIlmore,s Record.

The Richmond Enquirer recently published an
immense article to prove that Mr.. Fillmore was
not sound on the slavery question, on account OF
certain votes given by him in Congress, and we
observe that some of the Democratic country
papers attach so much Importance to it as to
make room for it in their columns. A gentle
man OF this place has examined the records OF
Congress, and copious extracts furnished by him
will be found on the first page of this paper
The reader will be surprised to learn that MIR.
Fllmore's position in the most important partic-
ulars was sustained by no less parsonage than
Governor Henry A, Wisel Our correspondent
we'll remarks that instead of saying, "Fillmore,
Giddings & Company" the Enquirer should have
said, ''Wise, Fillmore & Co." The attempt to
convince the people that Fillmore is an abolition
ist, or in any degree ''unsound," is an uphill
business. We invite special attention to the por-
ton of the communication relating to Mr.. Bu-
chanan's position on "squatter sovereignty"

Another Governor of Kansas.

President Pierce has removed Wilson Shan,
non from the office of Governor of Kansas, and
appointed COL John W. Geary, of Pennsylvania,
in his place. Col. Geary commanded Penn
sylvania regiment in the Mexican war, and was
subsequently, Postmaster and Mayor of San
Francisco, California. He is said to be highly
qualified for his present position.
The President has been sorely tried in his ef'
forts to get the right man for the station. his
first appointee, Reeder, though in the outset
highly commended, was turned out of office
with every mark of indignity. Reeder'l testi-
mony before the Kansas Investigating Commit
tee however, exhibits the President in very
unfortunate attitude. He states that short
time before his removal the President expressed
himself as fully satisfied with his conduct, but
for the sake of peace wished him to resign, and
promised to appoint him Commission to China
What Shannon's offence is, we are not informed
but he doubtless, like Reeder, will have q tale
to tell.

A New Statue of Washington.

The Richmond Enquirer, in late humoef'
devotes fulsome article to Preston ii. BROOKS
and then,in the paragraph Immediately succeed
ing, denounces and ridicules Mr.. Fillmore, IN
terms of unmitigated bitterness. The satire OF
the Enquirer would be painfully pungent, were
in not amusingly absurd. With strange lndis-
cretion it recalls Mr. Wise's eulogy, and declares
that truth and sarcasm equally aboundln 1na1
phrase Washington-lke.' He is dead WASH
ington, counterfeit Washington, statue OF
Washington. The picture, the statue, the sha-
dow of Washington for President, and the name
of Andrew Jackson for Vice President" Such
is the milder language of the central organ Of
Virginia Democracy. Its more malignant lines
we will not quote. Our object is not to preach
propriety to the Enqurer,but to show how very
unfortunate are the comparisons in which he In
dulges Mr.. Fillmore is statue OF Washington
Does the Enquirer recollect the famous statue
of Memnon, which in olden times discourseo
sweet music to the rising sum- Has it ever
heard of Pompeys statue, at the feet OF winch
the favorite tyrant of the Roman democracy
expiredl The allusion to the statue is partlcu'
liarly unfortunate in the present instance. The
statue of Washington stands out before the
nation, living statesman and patriot, animated
with the sentiments and guided by the principles
of the Father of his country. The statue Of Jas
Buchanan stands as mute and non-committal as
marble, upon the Cincinnati platform Sunrise
evokes no welcome sound from him. The peo-
pie will soon decide whether the statue OF
Washington" or the statue of James Buchanan
shall occupy the executive pedestal. We trust
their preference will be decidedly Washingtonian
At the worst we have the consolation of know
ing, on the authority of the Enquirer, that Mr.
Fillmore sis like Washington" and, so long as
he lives, will serve to recall the image and char
acter of that great man to his admiring country
men

The Courthouse.

Workmen have been busy for several weeks
past in re-modeling the interior of the Court
house in this place. The Bench is to be placed
where it originally stood, on the north side Of
the ROOM under Judge Msrshalps portrait; gal
leries will be constructed along the east and west
sides, and be reached by stairways on the south
side of the building, commencing hear the front
door; the large columns in the middle of the
room will be removed, and the ceiling supported
by rods from the roof; a partition will be run g.
cross the room from east to west, leaving pas
sage at the entrance of the building; and large
windows will be inserted on the sides to venti-
late the east and west galleries. The room and
galleries, it is estimated, will comfortably accom-
modate three hundred people. Some new ar
rangement was certainly very much needed
Indeed it is matter of establishment that so lit
tie regard is generally paid, in the construction
of Court-houses, to the accommodation of the
public. Although they are often crowded by
persons drawn together by business or curiosity,
we have never seen one in which more than a
100 people could find seats The Court Clerk, Bar,
Jury and criminal are provided for, and the pub
lie at large left to stand about as they can.

FILLMORE IN GEoRGIA.-It is admitted on all
sides that great reaction in favor OF Fillmore
has taken place in Georgia. The Columbus
Times, one of the strongest Democratic papers
in the State, comedies it. In its last issue, the
Times uses the following language:
"We are frequently asked if there is any truth
in the alleged reaction in favor Of Fillmore ut
the South. Candor conlpels as to sag there IS. y
The Times, of course, does not give up the
State, but very materially reduces the majority
it claimed for Buchanan short time ago. The
Columbus Enquirer commenting on the article
of the Times, says
''In this case, they might as well attempt to
arrest the current of the Gulf stream as to make
head against the influence of Mr.. Fillmore's
speeches (Which the Times acknowledges to be
the cause of the reacton) The truth is there's no
majority against Fillmore in Georgia A very
large majority of our people ardently desire to
see him restored to the Presidency"
The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle, says that "eve-
nv thing tends to strengthen the conviction that
Fillmore will carry Georgia by sweeping ma
iority, if his friends but do their duty. The
enthusiasm with which his name is welcomed
on all sides would be alone guarantee OF sue
cess, but We have other proofs Of his increasing
popularity. Men who have stood aloof from the
political organizations of the day, are coming
forward on all sides to record their confidence
for him. The young who are eager to enter the
arena, take pride in becoming the supporters of
one whose name is sound of welcome to their
ears The large body of men who recognize in
Mr.. Fillmore the great exponent Of American
sentiment, and who remember with gratitude,
the patriotism end sound craftsmanship he re-
vealed on every occasion during the Presidency,
are happy in welcoming so many new recruits
to his standard" 49,

MIR. Stuart ON the Stump.

Mr. Stuart of this place, was prevented by
sickness from meeting his appointment to speak
OF Orange Courthouse on the 2sth ult., but spoke
in Culpeper on the S0th. We observe that our
contemporary of the Charlottesville Jeffersonian
is chuckling over the idea that Mr.. Stuart de-
clined to go to Orange from fear of meeting the
Democratic champions who would be there
This is decidedly rich. A gentleman who has
been on the stump since 1910, and has encoun.
tered nearly every prominent Democrat in the
State, not only without being demolished, but
with a constantly increasing reputation, at this
late day afraid of discussion!

Mr.. James B. Clay, we understand, has an
nounced publicly that he expects to vote for Mr.
Buchanan. Very likely he would vote for q
still vler enemy of his illustrious father if one
were in the field. 1t seems almost pity, that,
while voting for Mr.. Buchanan for President, he
cannot at the same time have chance to vote
for Amos Kendall or Preston Blair for Vice
President We have heard of recreant son
who dreamed that Nemesis came and beat him
with the bores of his dead father. We should
not wonder if the son of the patriot Of Ashland
were occasionally visited by similar Nightmares.
Mr.. J. B. Clay acted as delegate in the Old
Line Wing Convention in this city. We have
heard the question asked who appointed him.
We learn that he called q meeting, went to the
place, rang the bell, appointed himself president,
vice president, secretary, and committee, and
then unanimously appointed himself delegate, no
other person being present He was in such a
bad humor however that he is supposed to have
broken up in row.-LouiScille Journal.

name does not appear on the title page, but we
learn from the Dedication that the work is by
the Hon. Jere Clemens, of Alabama. Mr..
Clemens reputation as one of the most gifted

the book is worth reading.

Mondays Cincinnati Enquirer contains start
ling revelation in its city news column. 1t says
that on Wednesday night last there assembled
in Hall on Walnut street 800 men, to organize
themselves into Vigilance Committee. The
most desperate plans were discussed. Their
movement was unknown to the Police. The
Enquirer says that the entreaties of two or three
men among them was all that kept the bomb
from exploding in their midst That by vote
of 100 to 112 they agreed to await certain
contingency. This mystic contingency it sup
poses to be the decision on the coming trial of
Arrison for the murder of Catharine Allison.

FILLMORE AT THE NORTH AND WEsr.-A gen.
tleman of responsibility and intelligence, writing
from Philadelphia on the 2sth of July, says
"When November comes, you will find that
Buchanan will not carry single Free State =
Fremont may carry one or two-and ifthe cur
rent continues setting, as it has the past few
weeks, Fillmore will carry every State north OF
Mason and Dixon's line. Be assured, the con-

Of high standing, though much retired from pub

of of Mr. Fillmore. He appeals to the oonserva-

but unmixed evils in sectional contest. He
re-echoes the noble sentiment, which Mr. Fill
more, with moral heroism worthy the best
days of the Republic, uttered at Albany, that
the South should not submit to an election effec-
ted by sectional majority
