Baltimore and ohio Freights.

BALTIMORE, May 13.-It is now def
nitely asserted that no such action by the
late Cleveland Railroad Convention rela-
tive to prepaid freights over the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, as reported in the news
papers, ever took place in that body. The
report originated in the desire of GER
tain parties to compel the Baltimore and
Ohio Road to abandon its policy of a fast
freight line to the West. s.li

"GoT THE BLUES. ."-How often do we
hear this complaint made. The reason
generally ascribed is that something has
gone wrong, but if you will question the
patient in regard to health, habits, &C., you
will very often find that indigestion is the
prime cause 1.-THE intimacy of the brain and
stomach is very close, and nothing so sours
the feeling and disposition as dyspepsia-i
1t is singular fact that most suicides are
dyspeptics. IF our nourishment is proper
ly digested the brain is free and unoppress-
ed, and will solve our troubles, pointing
out sunshine ahead, and inclining US to
look on the bright side of life; thus is it
our duty to guard against this monster
indigestion we know of nothing so
potent to assist digestion as Goes Dyspep-'
sia Cure. It has cured some very bad cases
of dyspepsia of even ten or fifteen years
standing. ~ myS-d&w1w

and will, perhaps, be given to the jury tbi'

FERNELIUs calls disease an affection of
the body, contrary to nature; a purtuba-
ton of its habit; a arrangement of its
courses. What disease-is, sometimes eludes
human intelligence, but some diseases are
known1their origin, action, and even their
antidotes. Whoever has discovered an ac-
tual remedy for nedisease, has done some
thing for his race. DR.. Aver has done
more for his medicines afford us the means
to control and cure several dangerous disor-
ders. We rarely speak. on medical sub
jects, preferring toaleave them to physi-
clans, who understand them better. But
such effects as are seen in our midst, on
affections of the lungs by Ayers Cherry
Pectoral, on scrofuIous complaints by his
SarsapariIla, and on the several complaints
that they cure by Ayers Pills should not
be ignored.-Keokuk; (Io,oa) Journal.

India mail steamer arrived from Vera

closely besieged by the Liberals, who were
using every available siege piece with but
little effect, as only some few houses had
been injured and no lives lost. There was
no probability of the Liberals taking the
city unless the Imperial Generals should
disagree among themselves, causing sur

COLUMBIA. s. G.. WEDNESDAY MORNING DECEMBER 4 1867

It is the curse of despotism that it
has no hating place. The intermit-
ted exercise of its power brings no
sense of security to its subjects; for
they can never know what more they
will be called to endure when its red
right hand is armed to plague them
again. Nor Is :. possible 70 conjec-
ture how or where power, unre-
strained by law, may seek its next
victims. The States that are still
free may be enslaved at any moment;
for if the Constitution does not pro-
tect all, it protects none.
1t is manifestly and avowedly the
object Of these laws to confer upon
negroes the privilege of voting, and
to disfranchise such a number of
white citizens as will give the former
q clear majority at all elections in the
Southern States. This, to the minds
OF some persons, is so important that
q violation of the Constitution is
justifiable as means of bringing it
about. The morality is always false
which excuses wrong because it
proposes to accomplish desirable
end. We are not permitted to do
evil that good may come. But in
this case the end itself is evil, as we'll
as the means. The subjugation Of
the States to negro domination would
be worse than the military despotism
under which they are now suffering.
It was believed beforehand that the
people would endure any amount of
military oppression, for any length Of
time, rather than degrade themselves
by subsection to the negro race.
Therefore, they have been left with
ont a choice. Negro suffrage was
established by Act of Congress, and
the military officers were commanded
to superintend the process of cloth
ing the negro race with the political
privileges torn from white men.
The blacks in the South are enti-
tied to be well and humanely go
verned, and to have the protection of
just laws for all their rights of per-
son and property. If it were prac-
ticable at this time to give them
government exclusively their own,
under which they might manage
their own affairs in their own way, it
would become grave question whe-
ther we ought to do SO, or whether
common humanity would not require
us to save them from themselves.
But, under the circumstances, this is
only speculative point. It is not
proposed merely that they shall
govern themselves, but that they
shall rule the white race, make and
administer State laws, elect Prcsi-
dents and members of Congress, and
shape to greater or less extent the
future destiny of the whole country.
Would such trust and power be safe
in such hands?
