Andrew J. DoneIson.

The noble patriot whose name stands at the
head of this article has been sacrificed togeth-
er with MlLLARD FILLMORE by Tennessee. Ii
is an old saying that republicans are migrate
full" and the late elections speak loudly IN
confirmation of it. Andrew j. Donelson,
Tennessee's own patriotic son, reared up under
the immediate auspices of the hero of the
hermitage, enjoying his confidence up to the
hour of his death, and receiving the strongest
testimonials of his love in his will, has been
sacrificed 10 crafty the spells seekers OF cor.
rupt party; sacrificed by Tennesseans who have
alway professed TO revere the name of JACK
SON ANDREW J. DONELS0N whose life
has been characterized by the most devoted
patriotism, has been inundated, that corrupt
party might retain power; that the spells might
remain in the same unholy hand; that the
same demagOgues who havecursed the country
for the last four years with their misruIs, might
have an opportunity TO prolong that curse, and
sink the nation deeper into degradation. Yes,
Andrew j. D0nelson who has shown that HE
patriotism was capable Of rising above party
predictions, by forsaking the modern demo
cratic party when he discovered that that party

MONDAY, NOV. II, 1855.
Shall Tennessee remain ia the Demo-
cratic Family


To Elk Tennessee in the democratic
famHysas firmly as Mississippi" was one of
the aTowed objects of the extraordinary
exertions of the democratic leaders here,
in the late canvass. This was somewhat
inconsistent with their artful appeals to
Wings and Fillmore men to vote for Bu-
chsnan to prevent the election Of Fremont;
but, nevertheless, it was an end they sought
to attain, aud we doubt not they are salts
fed now that it has been attained Ameri-
cans, Wings and others who preferred Mr.
Fillmore, now that they see there was new
er any danger Of the election of Fremont,
must feel rather mortified that they have
contributed to result viewed by demo-
Gratis with so much selfcomplacency. Ten
nessee as firmly fixed in the Democratic
family as Mississippi" and by American
and Wing votes? Is there an American
or Wing, who honestly voted for Mr.. Blu
chanan under the impression that such a
vote was necessary to defeat Fremont, who
does not now feel that he has previously
wronged bis principles and his party?
And is he not ready now to prepare
for struggle to convince the blatant De-
mocracy that Tennessee has not been
/" firmly fixed in the Democratic fami-
ly? 1t is gratifying to know that the dis
aster in this State has not weakened the
faith, or depressed the courage of the lion
hearted American masses They are as
warmly devoted to the cause this day as
they were at any time during the late con-
test, aud desire but an opportunity to ex-
hibit their firm and inhexible devotion to
their principles They want another fight,
and next summer they intend to have it;
and if those Americans and Wings who
aided in swelling the majority for Buchan-
an, have not gone into the Democratic par
ty to stay, we shall expect their aid in de-
taching Tennessee from the Democratic
family. She don't belong there, and all
true men will combine to rescue her from
the embraces into which she has fallen.
Don't let any one think this can't be done.
The majority to overcome is large, but it
is not a Democratic majority. Our friends
will recollect that, in I848, Taylor and
Fillmore carried Tennessee by mare than
siz thousand majority; yet the following
year this majority was overcome and the
Wing candidate for Governor beaten. We
can, next year, by proper organization, and
herculean effort, tear the present Demo
cratic majority to atoms and carry of the
State Let us all look forward, therefore,
with hope and confidence to the contest
which comes off next year, and prepare to
make all sacrifices necessary to redeem
Tennessee.

An 0ssIFIED NAN.-In quiet village on the
Western Reserve in Ohio, says, the Prescott Trans
cript there lives a man who, phvsiolOgicaly con-
sidercd is certainly one of the wonders of the
world. His Joints are completely ossi6ed, turned
to bone and he is not capable of making the slight
est movement except alternately opening and shut
ting two fingers of his right hand. His body is as
rigid as IRON and il could not be bent forward or
backward without breaking some of his bones
This singular process of ossi6cation has been going
on in his system for more than twenty years. H.
is now about 46 years old and has not had the use
of bis limbs, so that he could walk, since he was
nineteen. 0ssihcaton commenced first in his
ke joints, gradually extending itself through his
system until he was entirely helpless. Since that
time he has been entirely under his mothers care
aud she watches over him with an anxiety which
only a mother can feel When about 20 years
old, he became entirely blind from some unknown
cause, and has remained so ever since. At about
80, he suffered greatly from the tOothache, and f.
naily he had his teeth all extracted. year or
two afterwards his finger and toe nails all came Oft
and were supplied by others growing out from bis
fingers and toes a. right angles, and presenting
the appearance of horns What Is still more sin
guar with regard to his nails the end of the nail
is cut oil, il will bleed freely.
Such Is the condition OF this remarkable man at
the present time. lie has been visited by great
number Of scientific men, from all parts OF the
world, bat all have failed to give any plausible
son Of the rsuse Of bis transformation from flesh 20
bone Singular as il may appear, although his jaw
bone is firmly set IN his head he not onh talks
freely, but tiueuty converses With his friends and
those who visit him, on sill ordinary topics OF the
dav and be shows himself well Informed aud OF
good mind BE i alNays cheerful, appears e0nten-
ted aud happy, and it seems probable that be will
live mAny years TO come.

THE RIGHT KIND OF EMIGRATIoN.-Amo
those who are now in the city with a view to
emigrating to Nicaragua is Col. 2. r. Ed
wards, loGg and favorably known as q citizen
of Galveston, Texas. lie is going out for per-
manent settlement, accompanied by his fami-
ly and about ten others. The emjgrants de
sign to purchase, il possible, some of the fine
estates which are to be sold in Nicaragua on
the first of January. Col. Edwards, we under
stand, has purchased and fitted out a schooner
to take his family and those who accompany
him to Nicaragus, and expects to sale OF or
about next Monday. Such emigrants are the
best auxiliaries which General Walker can now
have, and with their assistance we may in no
long time expect to see Central America COM

ACTION OF SUGAR ON THE TEETH-The
Charleston, S. O., Medical Journal states that
NJ. Larez, in the course of his Investigations
on the teeth arrived at the following cOnclu-
illusions:
list. Refined sugar, either from cane or
beets is injurious to healthy teeth either by i'm
mediate contact with these organs or by the
gas developed, owing to its stoppage in the
stomach.
"2d. If a tooth is macerated in saturated
solution Of sugar, it is so much altered in the
chemical composition that it becomes gelatin
Gus, and its enamel Opaque, spongy, and easis
ly broken.
Sd. This modification is due, not to free
acid, but to a tendency of sugar to combine
with the calcareOus basis of the TOOTH"
The foregoing conclusions are correct, and
candies and condiments should be avoided.
they should be kept free from children es-
pecay. 1t is well known that maple sugar
renders teeth tender and sensitive.

LOCUST TREES on RAHRoADs-The Illinois
Central Railroad Company have contracted for
the planting of Locust Trees on each side Of
their road, FOR the distance of one hundred
and twenty miles. After the trees are once
set, with little care in keeping the weeds
down and the earth mellow around the roots
for two or three years, they will require no
more labor, and they win then afford shade
along the road, and will have a tendency to
cause the grass to grow, which will in great
degree prevent much Of the annoyance from
dust, and at the end Of twenty years the trees
will afford timber large enough for ties for the
use of the road. This is most excellent plan,
and should be adopted on every road that
runs through land that will grow the locust.
Tie laborers who repair the road can bestow
the little cultivation necessary, which viii cost
