BkS- We have lately heard complaints made by
Che family Of abuses, by certain individuals Of the
privilege accorded to the public of visiting Postons
Spring. There are some who select it as a cool
place to get drunk at and, AFTER accomplishing that
manly purpose, indulge in other improper conduct
there. Some have gone far as to prevent servants
Of the family from getting water to carry to the
house. We have been requested to state that no
such conduct as that will be tolerated in future IL
this notice does not put stop to it the most eec-
tual Of other means will be resorted TO. People
who are willing to behave decently are welcome to
resort to the Spring; but such only are welcome,
or will be allowed 10 go there.

R<5- The young men who will cast their first
votes in November next should resolve that this
first exercise Of the high privilege shall be in the
right direction. Many ofthem have been educated
in blind faith in democracy, and would reluctant
~ abandon that faith though they can give no rea-
for clinging to it; hut let them remember that
democracy have no fixed principles, no nationality,
no organization and that in voting with either Of
the factions claiming to be the true democratic
party, they are cropping in political darkness and
giving a sort of galvanized vitality to dead body
If they will scrunize the position of the Douglas
faction, they will find that squatter sovereignty is
its only idea and if they will look at the Yanccy
Breckenridge faction it will be seen that its fire
eating and controlling spirits though protesting tC
ahhor sqrattcr sovereignty, have put forth ticket
which stands squarcly upon that doctrine. Such
tritling with public opinion and the interests of the
South merit the eNccr0tion OF every honest patriot
and it bchooves every young man, in performing
his first political act to put the seal of his condem
nation upon such conduct and to repudate tn,
sectonalism which now distracts the country anC
threatens the downfall of the Republic. There i
no democratic party now; it is numbered will
things that were, aud the demagogucs who striv
ing TO conceal its death hope to get one more chance
at the treasury before the fraud is exposed

Bk2s' The Union ticket, 90 far this District Is
concerned, is now complete, and every man upon it
is worthy Of the most earnest support Of every good
citizen and honest patriot The feeling manifested
on the occasion of the District Convention, last week
shows that the Union men animated by deter
minaton to win the victory, and the able and zeal
Gus speeches point to the means by which that vic
tory is to be achieved The talent which this Dis
tict boast and the patriotism which will bring,
and keep il in the field, seconded by the sound
sentative views of the majority-its devotion to the
Union--can not fail TO secure an overwhelming
triumph in November. The silent influence of such
noble patriots and enlightened statesmen Bell and
Everett is of itself tower of strength and when to
it are added the unanswerable arguments and thrill
ling eoquence of our Electors and their volunteer
assistants who can doubt our success in Tennessee
over party hopeessly divided entirely sectional,
and incurably corrupt In contest between Bell
and Lincoln what Union-lovng man will hesitate to
support the former and what sensible will be
diverted from his duty to bis country by the section
al quarrel between the friends of Douglass and
Breckenridge? Neither can possibly be elected, or
if elected, neither a sectional man. and mere
partlLan oncc-seekeT, can harmonic the NOrtn anu
the South and neither will seek to stay the tide OF
corruption which is demoraizing the body polite
Douglas ia the open and avowed enemy ofthe in
situations of the Southso far as squater sovereign
ty can make him such; and although Breckenridge
has never repudiated that doctrine as embodied in
the Cincinnati PLATFORM or as advocated by himself
in 1854 and 1885, yet, as the Yancey candidate,
the odor of dsunionism must cling to his garments
even though he may be the unconscious instrument,
in the hands of the Gulf squadron, TO secure the
election of Lincoln.
The people of the South-whaever may be the
wishes of its politicnns-have no use for such men
and we honestly believe the great bulk will repudi-
ate both, and sustain the only national ticket now
before the country and if each District will do its
duty this will sectionasm will be buried at the
close Of the canvass. Then, to work at once, and
everywhere. Arouse the patriotism and fire the
zeal 80 long dormant in the breasts of the people
until the cry of the whole country shall be--"the
Union, the Constitution, and the enforcement ofthe
Laws

BslS. Our readers will remember how long it has
been the cry, that the democratic party alone has
the power TO save the Union This boast has not
only had the effect to make many simpetons be-
cyc the assertion to bc true but it has had the still
worse effect to make the leaders Of democracy pre-
fer disuuion to the defeat of their party and many
OF them are now prepared for any catastrophe rather
than that Of defeat Already you may hear then,
whispcr-I told you sol told you the Union
would be dissolved whenever the democratic party
i' defeated aud thu, one false step has led to
another until those who lied, ~ saying that moth
ing but the democratic party can save the Union,
ere willing to destroy the Union to give that lie
the force of ruth--thc semhiancc of prophecy. But
Tai, will no, ymd.Coc their vcrlcity nor csab-
fish their character a. prophets because they know
that, although they csnno, save their own party
now shycrga n;o fragments, they can save the
luion by yo,inr hr Bc'lond Everett And, know
inc thi. II thy refuse TO do it, they must stand
convicted %. NtlM purpose to compass the very
cal which the, profess to d,prcclte Every vote
they throw away upon Don, and Breckenridge

OBITUARY.

SUSAN ANN, only daughter of James and Sarah
A. Hinton who died on the 9th of June, requires
this last tribute. The promise of so much happi.
ness to dotng parents taken away with such hur-
ried warning, veriies the instability of all things
human. Susan Ann the pride of the house, a
JOY to all who knew her. example to her COM
panions, and bright promise of future pety and
usefulness. Her pure spirit shaking the dust Of
earth from its new-fedged wings, sped to realms OF
eternal happiness TO await the coming of those who
so deeply NOUN this blight of earthly hopes and
let this be their consolation. With a mind of more
than ordinary strength affections strong as the hui
man heart can bear and purified by chaste and re-
lgious education, she might have lived to become
soace in the declining years of her parents and al
ornament and living benefit to society. But how
much greater is the joy of knowing she is by The
side of the Father and in the choir of angels tina
chant his praise around the throne. This certainly
is far desirable than the anxieties and uncer
tainties of a temporal existence. May her untain
ted spirit hover over the spot where her memory il

U.S.. The Virginia democracy, after receiving
Commissioners from several States with disting-
uished houors, and listening with favor to their
reasonable suggestions for dissolution of the Union
in case squatter sovereignty not repudiated and
Douglas thrown overheard, is now divided between
that same Douglas and Breckenridge who stands
on the same platform with him. Such a backing
down is disgusting.
