Two young ladies of Philadelphia were
lately spending the summer in Northeastern
New York. During their visit they took
several long rides with the daughter of their
host about the country. On one Of these oc-
casions-as they had been travelling some
distance, and the day was warm, and
as q trough of running water stood inyitingly
by the road side-they conciuded 10 give their
pony a drink. One of the city ladies agreed
to get out and arrange matters for this
purpose; the Others remaining in the car
riage, and deeply engaged in conversation,
for some time paid no attention to the pro-
ceedings Of their companion. When at last
surprised at the long delay, they turned to
ascertain the cause, they discovered her en-
deaToring to unbuclle the ergPPer. In
amazement they inquired, "WhRt in the

There are only two newspapers in the State
of Georgia which have hoisted the names of
Douglas and johnson at the head of their col
umns. They are the Augusta Constitution
slist and the Atlanta Southern Confederacy.
Mr.. Hambleton, of the Confederacy, says:
We are for the repeal of the restrictions
upon the African slave trade, regardless of its
construed impolicy by Northern fanatics and
Southern submissionists.
We are opposed to the acquisition Of any
more territory until the African slave trade
is re-opened, and the immediate sale and en-
slavement Of ell free negroes that are found
within the limits of the Southern States, after
a specified time to emigrate.

An Eastern correspondent of the London
News states that the number Of Christian re-
flgees from Mount Lebanon who were mas
sacred By the Mahometans at Sidou as given
in the official account of the English Vice
Consul was 300, and the French Vice Con-
sui adds 40 more to the number. The ex-
eitemsnt Of the Mahometans both in Sidon
and Tyre was so great that further massa-
cres we're feared, and the British steamer
Firsay was cruising on the coast to afford
any assistance which could be given to the
Christians
An account Is also given Of another hor-
rIble massacre Of Christians at Rashayia, a
large Christian settlement at the foot of
Mount Hermon.
ne Druscs suddenly assaulted the place.
and the Christians, taken by surprise, fled
for refuge to the palace in which the regular
Turkish soldiers were stationed The latter
e d shut the gates in their faces, and the Druses
had It all their own way. It is usual for the
DTuses to respect women in warfare. but
this was not the case in the present instance
for men were murdered, women violated, and
young children torn TO pieces. OF the two
thousand inhabitants Of the place, besides
refugees from other villages, not twenty are
leftto tell the tile.

Compound Extract Of Sarsaparilla,

the most efFectual remedy which the medical
skill Of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is com
bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue Of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure Of
not only Scrofula but also those other affec-
tions which arise from it, such as ERUPTIvB
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHoNY's FIRE,
RosE, or ERYsIPELAs, PMPLEs, PUsTULEs,
BLoTcHEs, BLAINs and BoIs, TUMoRs, letter
and SALT RHEUM, ScALD HEAD, RINGwoRM,
RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIc and MERcuRIAL Dis
EASES, DRoPsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING PROM VITA
TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in " io,p,Tity of The blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible III
contaminated constitutions.

Scrofula, or Kings Evil.

is a constitutional disease, a corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, It
pervades the whole body,.and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending " from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
it seems to be the rod Of Him who says, al
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies Of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous (;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by it..
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in

Stephen A. Douglas whines.

1t is hardly worthy of belief that gen.
une "giant" would whine. yet we find this
to be the case with Douglas on his six hours
visit to his "maternal," at Clifton Springs,
few days ago. He was called up to an
swer the question whether territorial leg
islature has the power to exclude slavery
from the territory. He declined answering
the question at first, but finally did, at last,
by saying that he hadrepeated great many
times, that a territorial legislature, could in
troduce, exclude or regulate slavery in any
manner that it pleased. The little giant
answered this question in an excited, ner-
vous, impatient, uneasy way, just as a
spanked schoolboy does when he can't get
away from the affoctionate embrace of his
mother Why was the "bould Douglis" so
nervous about that answer? 1t was for no
other reason except that he was giving the
direct lie to his own record. He was in
mental fear that some newspaper scribbler"
might be bunting up his damaging record.
Does Douglas stand upon the same plat
form that he did six years ago? Has he
ever swerved from his chosen popular SOW
oreignty path9 Let us examine the record
1t does not lie, and Douglas with all his
loud mouthed balderdash cannot alter it.
At the time of the discussion on the
Kansas bill in Congress, Senator Trum-
bull, of Illinois, offered the following
amendment to the bill, viz
"Be ii further enacted, That the provis-
ion in the act to organize the territories Of
Nebraska and Kansas which declares it to
be the true intent and meaning of said act,
not to legislate slavery into any Territory
or State, nor to exclude it therefrom, but to
leave the people thereof perfectly free to
form and regulate their domestic institutions
in their own way subject only to the Con
stitution of the United States, aUdS intinded
to and does confer upon or leave to the
Territory of Kansas, full poaOer, at any
time, through ats territorial Legislature, tC
erclude slavery from said Territory, or Ia
recognize and regulate it therein"
This was voted down as follows:
Yeas-Messrs. Collamer, Durkee, Trum
bull, Wade, Seward, &c.-1l.
4 Nays-Messrs. Hunter, Iverson, Pugh
Slidell, Cass, DOUGLAS, &c.-34.
Thus it will be seen that Douglas vote
one way, and talks another, thus showing
himself 10 be an unprncipled politician
sedulously striving to humbug the people
He is the shallowest political demagogue tha
ever disgraced the name of states man.

seward,s speech at LlncoIn's Home.


AT Springfield on the first inst, though
but brief notice was given that Gov. Sew
ard was on the train, large concourse was
at the depot.
In obedience to the call Of the people,
Mr.. Seward appeared on the platform Of
the car and after alluding to his tour in
Kansas, said:
am glad to express, on behalf Of the
party with whom l am travelling, our graf
itude and acknowledgment for this kind
and generous reception at the home Of your
distinguished fellow citizen, our excellent
and honored candidate for the Chief Magis-
tracy of the United States. [Cheers1 II
there is any part of the country in which
there is deeper interest felt in his election
than there is in any other part, it must of
course be here, where he has lived life Of
usefulness, where he is surrounded by the
companions of his labor and his public
services.
We are happy to report to you that, al
though we have travelled over large part
of the country, we have found no doubtful
States. Applause.
You would naturally expect that should
say something about the temper and dispo-
sition of the State of New York. The
State of New York will give a generous
and cheerful and effective support to your
neighbor, Abraham Lincoln. have heard
about combinations and coalitions there,
and have engaged from the beginning to
abandon this journey and turn back on my
footsteps, whenever shall find any reason
to suspect that the majority which the
State of New York will give for the Re
publican candidate will be less than sixty
thousand. Cheers.
The State of New York never fails
never finches. She has been committed
from the beginning, and she will be to the
end, under the circumstances, to the great
principles of the Republican party. She
, voted to establish this land of freedom foI
you in 1887. She sustained the ordinance
of 's7 till you were able to take care O
yourselves. Among the first acts of hel
government, she abolished slavery for her
self. She has known nothing of compro
iuloSS-uOhuluS vi COuNiltlOuS III lub OIGd
principle, and she never will. She will
sustain your distinguished neighbor, becaus
she knows that he is true to this great prin
ciple; and when she has helped to elec
him by giving as large majority as cal
be given by any half-dozen other States
J then you will find that she will ask less
. exact less, from him, and support him more
faithfully than any other State can do.-
That is the way she did with John Quinc
Adams. That is the way she sustained
Gen. Taylor. That is the way she W i'll sus
E tain Mr.. Lincoln. Loud applause.
Z Upon concluding, Mr.. Lincoln, who wa,
: present, pressed forward and shook Cover
nor Seward most cordially by the hand
and introduced others, and the train thel
departed amid enthusiastic cheering.

ciety; and John Adams, the Representa-
tive of that State which abolished slavery
within its limits at one great stroke of leg
islation; and Washington, who declared it
to be 'his fondest wish to see slavery abol-
ished by law and affixed to the Declara-
ton Of Indepenence the broad signature Of
his heroic sword; and Madison, who
deemed it absurd to admit the idea ofprop-
erty in man. and of the trainers of the
Constitution, who took care not to disgrace
that instrument with the word slavery,
and before adopting it finally, blotted out
from the extradition clause the word 'servi-
tude,' avowedly because IL signjfsd the con-
dition Of a slave, and substituted the word
SERVICE avowedly because 1t signifed the
condition Of freeman. Thus Mr.. Douglas
dares to speak of all those true men who,
after having declared their principles in the
Declaration, endeavored to introduce them
into practical life in almost every State in
the way of gradual emancipation That
they have failed in this, is it fault of theirs
1t shows not that they were less great and
sincere, but that subsequent generations
were hardly worthy so noble an ancestry
[Applause.
"There is Mr. Douglass version of your
history. He despairs of converting you
without slandering your fathers. His pres
ent doctrines cannot thrive unless planted
in calumny on the past. He vindicated
the siguers of the Declaration of Independ-
ence! see the iIustrious committee Of
five rise from their graves, at their head

to spare us from your vindications of oul
character and motives Great laughter
and applause.
Now it must be evident from perusa
this passage, that the paper, which was
mean enough to separate the passage giver
above, from the context, knew at the timt
that it was falsifying entirely the sentiment
of Carl Schurz. 1t was done for the pur
pose of deluding the public, and exciting
prejudice against Schurz because of hi

GOV. HI. v. Johnson,s Plantation

Consists of 1926 acres of land. 1t is
peculiarly adapted 10 the growth of the pro-
ducts of this latitude, particularly cotton
In the aggregate the land is valued at $25-
900. There are upon the plantation III
negroes, as likely set of boys and girls as
you will find south of Mason and Dixon's
line, and valued at $93,60O. The increase
of negroes in the last twenty-five years has
been 200 per cent. The number of mules
and horses is thirty-eight, worth $500;
value of cattle and implements about
$1,000. This will make the aggregate value
of the farm and stock $l23,50O. From
this investment there will be raised this
year 250 bales cotton, valued at $l2,500;
bushels of corn, 1900, valued at $6,50O;
giving clear income of $4,000, besides
supporting on the fat of the land, and in
sumptuous style, about $50 persons, and
raising any amonnt of sweet potatoes and
garden truck generally Correspondence

The owner of the above plantation and
slaves is now stumping in the free Western
States for votes for the Vice Presidency
At Pitsburg he insulted the men Of the
workshops by calling them slaves who are
driven to the polls by their employers, and
at Indianapolis he arrogantly told the peo-
pie "you must begin with your cOnstables,
and go up to your chief magistracy, and
plant your foot on every mans neck who
dares to say he will interfere with slavery
anywhere"
The Douglas candidate for Vice President
cracks his lash over the backs of the Democ-
racy in the West, as domineeringly as he
touches the raw on his Georgia plantation
slaves. Are the Douglas Democrats ready
to "kiss the hand that smites 2"
