sale of many Of the most celebrated makers of
Pianos and Melodeons. is Offering them at prices
which we advise all who desire to purchase to
avail themselves of. He is also selling his large

SCARCITY OF BEAUx-CAuT1oN TO TIE
LAD1Es.-From nearly all the resorts Of
pleasure, the cry of distress comes up from
the fair damsels, at the great scarcity of
beaux. The rose and lily vie as usual for
possession of their cheeks, the eyes sparkle,
the diamonds blaze, the jewelry flashes, the
silks shine,-but the beaux stand aloof.-
A writer from Newport to a Providence pa
per says the reason is, that the fair beings
arc so cxtravagant nowadays, that no one
''dare crave the right to maintain one of
these treasures in the same style with any,
thing short ofmint. Such thoughts are not
cherished for moment by man of moder-
ate means-while the gallants drown their
discomfort in the flames of cigar and the
crack of pistol"

TOBACCO So. SIS PER PoUND.-The Lynch

TOBACCO $2.55 PER Pound. The Lynch
burg Firyi"ian of Wednesday says =
AS miraculous as the statement may seem,
lot of tobacco actually sold in this market
yesterday, at the unprecedented price of
$2.55 per hundred. The world never
heard or dreamed of such sale as this be-
FORE It was sold at Martins Warehouse,
by J. II. & S. Tyree, and purchased by
Messrs. Booker & Halsy. 1t was raised by
AIr. Chas Hendrick, of North Carolina,
and is the finest specimen of the article ev-
er seen in this or any other market. The
color is bright golden hue and the lecture
almost as fine as silk AS with most pre-
cious things, the quantity was small-there
being only between one and two hundred
pounds.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING AT ALLEN S
FRESH


+ A meeting of the Democrats and old-line
Wings assembled at Allens Fresh on Satur-
day, August ODD, for the purpose of form
ing Club to promote the election of Buch
anan and breckenridge.
On motion, it was adopted, that Mr..
JOHN II. DIGGEs be called to the Chair, and
Benz. 4. JAMESON be appointed Secretary,
when the meeting proceeded to elect perma-
nent officers for the Club.
After which, Mr. THOMAS STONE arose
and delivered short and eloquent address.
The following resolutions were offered by
Mr.. JOIN II. DIGGEs, and unanimously a.
dopted:
l. Resolred, That whenever in the North
we find true and faithful friend, to save
the rights, and the Constitution Of our coun-
try, common sense, common gratitude, and
common justice demand that southern men
should acknowledge cherish, respect, and
honor that rare integrity and fidelity which
rises superior to the prejudice Of locality and
education.
2. Rcsozced, That we recognize in James
Buchanan shining exemplar of such char
acter; that in private and public life, as the
citizen or statesman, at home or abroad, we
find him sustaining, without faltering or
equiyocation, the same unblemished record;
always on the side of the Constitution. He
has not only supported every measure OF
justice to the South, but has brought to bear
his high character and commanding talents
to carry them into effect.
3. Resolced, That in this eventful crisis
of our country,s history we hold i te be tbs
upholds the Federal Constitution, and who
maintains the doctrine of State sovereignty
and recognizes the reserved rights of every
State IN this confederacy, to stand by the
South IN the maintenance of her constitu-
tional rights; that to this end and in order
to recover the good old ship of State which
is now, partially at least, in the hands of
traitors, describing forever political differ
ences, we invoke the aid and cooperation
Of all Union loving men by casting their
own, and using all honorable means to pro-
cure votes for our illustrious standard bear
ers, Buchanan and Breckenridge, at the
coming Presidential election.
4. Resozred, That this is no time for di-
vided councils, for elimination or recrimi-
nation, but compromise, concession, harmo-
ny; everything for our glorious cause should
be the guiding spirit to move us on to ac-
ton
5. Reso7red, That we hail with pride and
qualification as among the eloquent signs of
the times in our own State, the able can
did and patriotic letters of Senators Pearce
and Pratt, which with similar demonstra-
tons from old-line Wings, shew clearly that
a conservative, patriotic spirit is abroad, and
that the State of Maryland will rally to the
standard of Buchanan and Breckinridge
the Constitution and the Union.
On motion, it was ordered that the pro-
ceedings of this meeting be published in the
Port Tobacco Times.

Correspondence of Port Tobacco Times.

Mr.. ED1roR:-During my sojourn in
Charles county, had the pleasure of at
tending a grand Festival, held at St. Mary's
Church, Bryantown; also Fair, held in
Miss Martins Institute, and for taste and
arrangement, must confess l never in any
of our large cities witnessed anything to
surpass it. The rain on Tuesday morning
prevented the people from attending, but
fortunately on Wednesday the sun came
forth in all its brilliancy; and at 9 o'clock,
after the Fair opened, might be seen the
citizens from the country and cities pouring
in, until the place was filled to overflow
ing and the zeal with which they COM
menced selling and buying, showed the in
terest they took in the laudable object At
II o'clock, the grand Oratorio commenced
in the Church, consisting Of full Orches-
ira, headed by some of the most distinguish
ed professors from the city also some ladies,
amongst whom were the two Misses.M udd,
a I'd Miss A. Fitzpatrick, of Charles. The
Concert in Miss Martins exhibition room,
the second day, was truly grand, when the
above mentioned ladies particularly distin-
guished themselves. Mr.. George French,
of Washington city, deserves the highest
praise for the aid and efficiency which he
lent the ladies in all their exertions. Eat
ables were in abundance. Two tables wels
set in the grove, where dinner was served
that would have done credit to some of oul
grandest hotels, where from two to three
hundred persons sat down. I understand
that over $500 were taken in and that over
$400 will be clear profit. On the whole
the ladies of Charles are particularly distin.
guished for their zeal in getting up sucl
laudable affairs. The display of fire works
was sublime the whole atmosphere was il

The position of the House of Representa-
tives on Friday last, in adhering to the Kansas
proviso, was characterised in proper language
by Senators Bell, Cass, and Hunter. Mr..
Cass said he regarded this as the most SOL

pie would awake to a sense of their danger
before it was too late.

JUDGE TERRY-A set of resolutions has
passed both houses of the Texas Legislature
fully endorsing the character of the Hon.
D. s. Terry, one of the Judges of the Su-
prone Court of California, and who, at last
accounts, was in the hands Of the Vigilance
Committee of San Francisco. The Ciriiian
says:
Judge Terry was formerly a citizen of
Texas, and has here very many warm and
devoted friends who deeply sympathise with
him in his present unfortunate condition, in
the hands of enemies, where the laws and
authorities are set at defiance. The resolu-
tons request our Representatives in Con-
gress to use their utmost efforts with the
Executive of this Union to induce him to
employ such constitutional means as he can
to secure for Judge Terry fair and legal
trial.

rEMpLArED. = Washington, august %
There is still some hope of the passage OF
the army bill. A new one will probably
be introduced on Monday. Mr.. Campbell
of Ohio, has already prepared proviso to
be added, prohibiting the employment of
the army in Kansas to enforce the laws OF
the Leg islature. The proviso embodies the
main features of the Senate's pacificatlon
bill, abolishing test oaths, securing freedom
of speech, of the press, and appropriatlng
S25, 900 for the reorganization of the ter
ritory by the election of new Legislature
The National hatcUigemver, referring to
the action of the House of Representatives,
in ayai', passing the Army Appropriation
bill, with the Kansas proviso, says, eve
cannot contemplate without dismay the con-
sequences which would result from second
and final failure to provide means for the
support of the army, and we cannot doubt
that the combined wisdom and patriotism Of
the two Houses will arrive at some mode OF
reconciling the different views which now
obstruct the enactment of a law SO indispen-
sable to the safety Of the country. The ex-
cited state of feeling in the Legislative halls
how, and the obstinate adherence to diverse
views which mark the present dispute, re-
mind us of the fierce and mcnacing section
