There is very funny picture IN Once
a Week, received from v liner j. Rogers,
Of two crows robbing a dog Of his bone.
The ,aGeclo,c is introduced: by reference
to the well knywn fact that auinals sym
pathize with each other in distress, and
often establish friendly relations across
the wide gulf of difference in Species

considerable extent showing the beneyo-

fact will prove the existence of conbined

Mr. Douglas is violently assailed in
The Atlanta (Ga) hteHigcacer. He is
called the Bulldog Of the Nation, and
also hypocrite, who ''oughtto be damned
for all time to come with the South. -
We qnotc:
1.-THE South wants something more
than he would give here. She wants her
slave property protected from Abolition
legislation, and this she demands at the
hands of the President And If this
protection be denied when asked, she
will then fall backupon her own resources,
seize the sword of independence, and
fight for the laws of the land and our
rights. Indeed if she had not this right
guaranteed to her, the STAKEHOLDER would
be deferred from emigrating to the Terri
tories with his property, which would
Give the North the power of a tyrant, as
she is, and make the South vassal at
the door of the Abolitionists, asking for
mercy"
The Montgomery Ala. 1Aarertiser says:
"We are confident that Douglas can
neither receive the vote of Alabama at
the Charleston Convention, nor can he
receive an Endorsement ut the hands Of
Aabama's Democracy even il nominated.
Bat there are men, even IN Alabama, who
are laboring to accomplish both these
unhcly purposes. They should be met at
the very outset with the stern rcbukc ot
the true State Democracy We should
not only repndiste Douglas, bat since he
has forced his issue upon us, We should
demand firmly every iot and tide Of our
territorial rights. 70 be sound upon this
question should be sine qua non for
honors in the gift Of Alabama, ~. Y

your capital in land aud run in debt for
more. Hire money to stock your farm.
Have no faith in your own business, and
be always ready to sell out. Buy mean

whenever your oxen need strength
