HoIsrEp.-The Daily Republic, Buffalo,

We have as high an estimate rs any one of
Mr.. Bells eminent abilities and statesman
like qualifications, and could under certain
circumstances cordially support him; and we
also have the profoundest contempt for the
scavengers ard bootlicks who nre continually
assniling him. but we have not the remotest
idea that he will ever be in the Geld for the

WHs LErT.--Some person--we are una
bic TO make out the name-writcs from Sale
Greek, directing US to advertise his wife,
who he says has left his "bed and board
without cause" and eneloses $500 to pay
for the advertisement. We reckon there must
be some mistake about IL, asit is hardly posi-
bic woman would forsake her lawful liege's
"bed and board" this sort Of weather, pro-
yided always, said "bed and board" were of
the least inviting character. At any rate, we
never publish such advertisements unless we
know something Of the parties, and then only
at double tho usual price. II the husband
will write his name so that we can tell what
|. is, satisfy us by reference to parties with
whom we are acquainted that the nbsenting
wife Is really in fault, and forward us three
dollars more, we will then pnbIish his adver.
tisement. Ifhe does not do that,we will return
him his dollar ns soon as we hear from him,
but II we do not hear from him again in
three weeks from this writing, we will pass
said dollar into the contribution box the first
time we happen at Church, as so much breoo
cast upon the waters, the return thereof TO
be placed 20 the credit Of the disconsola,e
husband.

BANKS IN GtoRGIA.--The Augusta CoHaj
iuiionalisi, the leading Drmoe ratio paper of
Georgia, in noticing the war which is being
waged upon the solvent Banks Of "a, State,
by the hard money humbuggers says
There is not one word Of truth in the stale.
ment that the hanks of Georgia control the
cotton market. The banks have no more
ngcrts engaged in purchasing cot on, nor no
mnre cotton consigned to them. than Cover
nor Brown aud the editor of the Newman
Blade have. II Is equally fair, and far more
truthful aud Legitimate, 30 declare that Gov.
Brown aud his unti-hank friends ere wapiug
n war on capital and credit, To break down
the ,alnr of property, aud tie price of cation,
md thc Wnvcs Ur labor, that lie and some OF
his friends may realise fortunes from the de
prrriatiou OF Gotten, tabor aud property, gen.
crafty. The result OF this crusade is already
seen and felt in the depreciation Of cotton
and the hcrctr the war becomes, the lower
cotton will go; tor English manufacturers and
Yankee spinuers, noticing the war ON our
currency, know that cotton will decline IN
value, aud they cooperate with Gov. Brown
and his au,i-hauk friends TO lessen the value
of cotton, destroy the value OF negro, and
other property, redure the wages of labor
and PROSTATE the agricultural Interests of the
State.
The yeomanry Of Georgia will visit with
terrible rr,ribulinn their indignation against
those who adopt such nnhnliowtd means Ia
impair the value ot their produce, the rewards
OF their labor, and the savings Of their in
dustry.

REPORTED DsATH OF JoHN w. WHrrR OF
CHATrASooGA-N yStery.-Ou readers will
recolect that John w. White, Esq Of Chat
tanooga, member OF tho Inst General As
sembly, recently appeared before the public
charged with forging land warrants. The
following from the Memphis Appeal of the
18th will be read with painful Interest:
We learn from Mr.. J. s. Brooks and Mr..
VIM Pander, both of Haywood county, in
this State, who have Just returned from Ar
kansas, that when they were ten or twelve
miles this side of Clarendon on tho o,ili,--,.
road near White river, they were informed
that dead body had been found aud was ly-
ing IN n deserted log hut by the ROAD side
that the Coroner had held I'm inquest over the
remains-that no marks of violence were
found upon the body, and nothing appeared
to show how death occurred, the jury had
returned 4 verdict of death from causes I'M
known.
A watch and chain were found ppon the
body, some letters and several valuable notes,
and also u name marked upon the shirt worn
bv the deceased, showed him TO be Mr.. j. W.
White, of Chattanooga, Tennessee, who was
arrested, some time ago, on the charge of
forging land warrants, discharged on trial,
and arrested and held in fifteen thousand dol
lars bail for his appearance to take another
trial. There was no horse found on which
the deceased might have been riding, his
boots were very muddy. AT the timc our
informant passed. two men were digging n
grave TO bury him, just by the cabin where he
Law. They were intoxicated, and their an
pearance, and that of the desolate spot whore
the nut stood, were so disagreeable and 40
suggestive of unpleasant reflections, that the
two gentlemen rode away with very unpeas-
ant impressions upon their minds. We pre-
sumo the family Of the deceased, who was
greatly respected among his ncighbors, will
cause an examination TO be made into the
