THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

1t is notable fact that those who have
opposed the policy and principles of the
Democratic party, have ever predicted its
speedy decay and downfall Prophet after
prophet has arisen, and seer after seer has
fallen, in the same glorious work of foretell
ing the destruction of that party, which has
survived the revolutions and fourished amid
the downfall of all other factions that have
stood in its path Changes it must have I'm
dergoue, since its measures have been modi,
fed to suit the changed exigencies of the
country, and to adopt itself to the wants of
new States and Territories, and to the extend.
ing area of the country. But it yet stands
the same, in the great principles which it
advocates and maintains that 1t did in the
days Of Jefferson, and during the career of
jackson. Its polar star is the constitution
the end it aims at, the glory and permanent
welfare of the whole country. All the fine
words that are said about its disintegration
and its downfall, are but the Vaccinations of
its enemies, open or secret. These vatcina,
tons are Of the same hue and character that
they have ever been, and were there no such
hopes for the enemies of Democracy to feed
on, the spirit that animates all their politica |
schemes would expire, and they would have
nothing to excite and stimulate them to &C.
ton. 1t is but slender weed wherein to
lean, and it would be cruel task to deprive
them of the one passion of their lives--the
desire for the destruction of their dreaded
foes. Let them then enjoy, in peace, the one
little consolation that animates and keeps
them alive. Let them live by it, feed on it,
warm from it and receive their whole strength
from the poor comfort, which they nourish
and cherish SO seduously, for, like all the
prophets that have gone before them, they
are doomed to a bitter DISAPPOINTMENT

YNHE SUBSCRIBERS, respectfully calls I'D
Il attention of the Public to their Extensiv|
NURSERY GROUNDS, which are now filled
with the most complete assortment Of
FRUIT TREES. PLANTS, &c|
ever offered to the people of the South
Situated as we are, in the middle region d
the State of Mississippi, we have all the diff
cultles OF the climate to contend with aN|
any varieties of Fruit that will succeed well
Nth as may be confidently recommended d
any one wishing plant in Southern climnv1
and soil.
We have now in our specimen orchards
between FIVE AND SIX HUNDRED Of th
best varieties of Apples to be obtained in Eu|
rope or America. OF this large number, so fad
as we have tested, we can recommend no mOrI
chan forty OF fifty varieties which succeed we'll
in this'Soulhern climate. Many Of the finest
Northern varieties are entirely worthless and
many others are Of questionable value, wbAI
only a few, and those mostly oil the earliest
varieties, can be confidently recommended tO|
give entire satisfaction to the Southern Planter
The same result has attended our experiment.
in the cultivation of the Pear, Peach, and most
other varieties of fruit; but while we haV|
found many to be worthless, we have succeeded
in selecting some varieties Of the Apple, Pearl
Peach, Nectarine, Apricot, Plum, Cherry, &C.
that can be confidently relied on to product
fruit of as fine quality and in some instances
liner than can be produced in The grounds o|
the most extensive orchards Of the North =,
Persons wishing to supply themselves wlll|
fine Fruit Trees, which they can plant AHithoI,|
The fear Of Disappointment, can do So, by SEM
ing US their orders EARLY, naming the varieties
wanted, or what would be better, nGuiing ns|
season at Which they soish them to ripen, anu
leaving the selection ofvarieties tous.
Our Trees are very fine, and our prices af'|
Low, as will be seen by reference to our Cata'|
ogue, which will be sent free to all applicants

of the Atlanta American gives an account Of II
most distressing casualty which occurred in For
syth county, near Cumming. on Friday night last.
1t seems that II gentleman by the name OF Ellis
Wadrup, residing near Browns Bridge, ON the
Chattahoochee and his wife, about o'clock mt
night, left their four children, two girls and boy
the eldest IL years old, and walked to neiglbors
house, quarter Of mile off, to see n sick person.
They left their children all asleep. On returning
home they discovered their house in flames, and
not able to reach the scene of the awful ca
lamity until after the building had fallen in The
children all persisted in the flames--every one
they had in the world. The Americans cores
pendent says:
conversed with gentleman who was pres ent
when portions of the bodies were recovered from
the smoking ruins. Some of the chldrens heads
were burnt of and gone; arms and legs of all four
of them gone: and the bodies roasted into crisp.
My informant told me that the scene was awful
and heart-rending; and it should remain stand
ing adm milton to parents NOR to leave their
homes unprotected, especially II. night
