.sThe Friends of the south. ,,

We have grown tired of the idle twaddle Of
the secessionists, about who are "iriends of the
Southn and who are not. A small clique Of South
ern extremists seem to regard themselves as the
anointed defenders Of the rights of thousands
of Southern men of forty times their wealth and
ability, and they are constantly issuing bulls OF
accommodation against those who do not swear
allegiance to their rickety platform.
The above is from the Richmond Enquirer,
and sounds strangely coming from that quarter.
Heretofore the Enquirer has been one of the
most rampant champions of Southern rights, u
denouncing as traitors all those who refused to
stand upon its ''rickety platform" We are glad
to see that it has grown tired of such side
twaddle." Its language now is just such as has
always been used by the Wings and Americans.
For many years past the Democracy have &C
cused every opposing candidate of Abolitionsm.
Not content with bringing the charge against
Fillmore, Scott and other Wing candidates for
the Presidency, these "anointed defenders"
went to the ridiculous extreme of preferring it
against Summers and Flournoy Even Mr. Stu
art of this place, has repeatedly been assailed in
this manner by the Democratic press. We
grew tired of, or rather Indifferent to, the side
twaddle" long ago; and just as the Enquirer
does, spoke of the absurdity of men who did not
own the one tenth part Of single negro, call
ing others who owned from ten to hundred
slaves, Abolitionists or Freesoilers. But the
Enquirer should not complain of having to take
a dose of its favorite medicine. Having many
times manufactured and administered it to 9TH
ers, it ought to know how harmless the drug is.

Heirs Wanted.

About twenty-five years ago Mrs. Margaret
Sheyer Called Shires) died in this place, leaving
sum of money to be used for charitable purpo-
SEES in the town of Staunton. The money went
into the hands of the late Samuel Clarke, Esq,
one of her executors, and at the time of his
death amounted to some four thousand dollars.
Jno. N. Hendren, Esq., Mr.. Clarke's administra-
tor lately filed a bill in ChaDcery, asking the
Court to appoint Trustee to receive the money,
and on Saturday last Judge Thompson rendered
his decision. He decided that the legacy was
void, and that the money must 60 to the heirs Of
the testatrix, if there are any, and otherwise to
the State. So far as is known the old lady had
no relatives

Advertisements.

We invite attention to the various new adyer-
tisements published in this paper. Among the
farms offered for sale is Clifton," the late resi-
dence of Maj John Alexander, decd, within
uwile of Lexington. The quality of the land and
Its advantageous location in regard to institu-
tions of learning &C., make it one of the most
desirable farms lately brought into market
We are requested to call the attention of mer-
chants to Mr.. Z. S. Kempers advertisement
Mt. Meridian is one of the best stands for store
in this county, andthe stock of goods offered for
sale is no doubt very desirable.

Another Pic.nic.

On Saturday last, the teachers and scholars OF
the Sunday School of the NJ. E. Church had
quite pleasant picnic at Walnut Grove, on the
farm of Mr.. Jefferson Kinney, few miles from
this place. The scholars were appropriately adj
dressed by DR.. j. NJ. Greene. The tables were
burdened with profusion of almost every vari-
ETY. of edibles The young persons present en-
loved themselves by swinging and engaging in
other pleasant amusernents. The day was spent
quite pleasantly by all who were in attendance.

wonderful Case of Resusci,ation.

Some days ago, son of Mr.. Geo. A. Bruce,
of Waynesborough, fell into the fore-bay of the
mill race at that place, and the gate falling on
his arm kept him down under the water. A
man in the mill discovered him in that position,
and ran off to Mr.. Bruce's house, several hun
Gred yards distant for assistance. Mr.. B. was
not at home, but several persons in the town,
hearing the alarm, fastened to the mill and ex-
tricated the boy. He had been under water at
least fifteen minutes, and when taken out SEEM
ed entirely dead; but the usual means ofrestora-
ton were employed, and in short time he re-

The Sherif,s Tax.

The securities of the late Sheriff of this coun-
ty having applied to the Court for remission OF
the tax imposed upon that officer, the case was
tried on Monday. After protracted discussion
by counsel, the Court, by a vote Of 20 to l, re-
fused to remit any part of the tax, principal or
interest The case excited much interest, and q
large crowd of persons was attracted to the
Court House during the discussion. Messrs.
Shelley and Baldwin appeared for the securities,
and Messrs. Hartman and Niche represented the
Commonwealth.
