Acceptance of the Democratic Xoiai* I
nations.
Concord, (N. H.) June 17,1852.
Gentlemen:?I have the honor to acknowledge
your personal kindness in presenting to me this
day your tetter omciaiiy inrormmg ?? ?> ?
nomination, by the Democratic National Convention,
as a candidate for the Presidency of the
United States.
The surprise with which I received the intelligence
of the nomination was not unmiugled with
painful solicitude, and yet it is proper for ine to
say that the manner in which it was conferred
was peculiarly gratifying. The delegation from
New Hampshire, with all the glow of State pride
and all the warmth of personal regard, would
v not have submitted ray name to the convention,
nof would they have cast a vote for nit, under
circumstances other than those which occurred.
I shall always cherish with pride and gratitude
the recollection of the fact that the voice which
first pronounced tonne?and pronounced alone?
came from the mother of States?a pride and
gratitude rising far above any consequences that
cau betide me personally.
May I not regard it as a fact pointing to tlie
overthrow of sectioual jealousies, and looking to
the perennial life and vigor of a l^nion cemented
- by the blood of those who have passed to their
reward?a Union wonderful in its formation,
boundless in its hopes, amazing in its destiny 1
I accept the liomitiarion, relying upon an abiding
devotion to the interests, the honor, and the gio
ry of our whole country, but beyond and above
all, upon a Power superior to all human might?
a Power which from the first gun of the revolution,
in every crisis through which we have passed,
in every hour of our acknowledged peril, when
the dark clouds have shut down around is has
interposed, as if to baffle human wisdom, out.
march human forecast, and bring out of darkness
the rainbow of promise. Weak myself,
faith and hope repose there in security. 1 accept
the nomination upon the platform adopted
by the convention, not because this is expected

judgment; and with them I believe I can safely
say there has been no word nor act of my life in
conflict.
I have only to tender my grateful acknowledgments
to you, gentlemen, to the convention of
which you were members, and to the people of
our common country.
I am, with the highest respect, your most
obedient servant. FRANK PIERCE.

The Whig Nomination.
We have another laborious mountain delivered
<f its mouse,?another National Convention |
assembling, and, with infinite big-sounding phrases
taken from the slang dictionary of patriotism,
selecting the inau who is to lead them 011 in
the next charge upon the United Stales Trea?u-;
ry. The Democrats chose a man who had
scarcely been mentioned beforehand; the Whig* i
Kav# f'hjif fine 'iiraitwf \i-h<nn si m ii. .l it

of their party had declared unforgiving hostility, i
Yet, ou the one hand, no sooner was that man
nominated whom nobody was commi?sioiied by !
the people to vote for, than all the faithful organs
sounded forth, "excellent! the very best
possible choice !" and on the other, no sooner is ;
the man against whom a majority of the Whig i
Convention is pledged and instructed, than the !
still dissentient members swear fidelity, and the :
choice is declared unanimous! Such is party,!
and of such stuff is fabricated the honors which '
the people shower on distinguished merit!
Will the Whig party ratify the choice of the
Convention ? We answer, yes, with scarcely a
note of dissent. Those who think differently,
j ? *1 1 .?
ao uut cuusiurr mm, me rem tjuesuon lit lllC next
Presidential election, is simply which of the two
parties shall have thespendiugof fifty millions a
year, for the next four years. Those who dream
that any portion of the Whigs will be backward
; V at taking tickets in this great lottery, will find
ont their mistake in a short time.
And in regard to their chances for the purse,
the Whigs have chosen wisely. Gen. Scott has
more strength than either of his competitors.
Mr. Fillmore is a dall, decent sort of man, whose
superiority consists in his having grown up like
a bunch of grass on the hillock of Gen. Taylor's
grave. Otherwise he would have been a very
common grass. Mr. Webster is a super.i'nima
t^d political lawyer, who, afier many un*uccoss
ful attempts to become a leader bv following the
leader* or hi* own party, has ended by a flash v
imitation of Gen. Oiss, in making faces at ah
the foreign nation# that, were either so feeble or

ger or meaning. Neither of these men have
any hold on the people, or could make a respectable
run against the Democratic nominees. We
do not believe that Gen. Scott can he elected, but
he has a great deal of positive strength, and is
surrounded with the specious tinsel that is so
easily taken for gold, and he will give his adversaries
trouble. If they, beat him, it will be by

Charleston Mercury.
Gen. Scott in Geokgia.?Judging from present
indications. Georgia will give but a slim support
to the Whig Ticket. We quoted the Augusta
Chronicle yesterday. The Savannah Republican
of yesterday is equally decided in re
pudiating the nomination. The Macon Messenger
is still more vehement against it. It says:
u We view the nomination of Gen. Scott as a
triumph of the enemies of the South ; and it
now remains for our political friends in the State
to take such course as will best cotiseivc the interests
of our section."
We have not heard froin the Milledgeville papers;
but the agreement of the three leading
journals we have mentioned, leaves little doubt
that at least, a powerful divition of the old whig
party of Georgia had made up their minds beforehand
not. to submit to the nomination of the
Seward candidate.
A notice appears in the Macon Messenger,
signed by the President and Vice Presidents of
the Constitutional Union Convention, convoking
another Convention of their party to meet on
the loth of July next, to decide upon this Prcsi- j
dential difficulty. It is not bv any moans improbable
that a third candidate may be nominated.
We expect to hoar much the same news from
Alabama, Mississippi and Florida. liut the
defection of the Whips in all these States will
not much affect the Whig party in the country
at large.?lb.
Important Decision in kegaudtothe Maine
Liqiok Law.?We stated a few days since, the
decision of the Supreme Judicial Court of Maine,
in regard to the seizure of liquors in transitu.?
There were several other points touched upon in
the decision rendered, the most important of
which were as follows. We lind them in the
Bath Times:
"There is nothing in the act indicative of au
intention of preventing intoxicating liquor being
property, when possessed by a persou for his own
use, without any intention to sell.
The act cannot prevent the transport of liquor
from one town or city to another, or through the
State, when there is no intention to make saleof
the same.
The declared design of the law was the usuppression
of drinking house sand tippling shops,"
and the law should receive a construction coin
patible with its design. The gen- ral ianguag'
of the act must he rest noted so as to aecoinj lisli
the general intent and d-eland purpose thereof,
or the jirovision in relation to the holding of j>roj>
erty niu<t be pronounced to b" a ] lain violation
of the provlsioiw'ofthe Con-tiluiioii. No positive
.enactment is found in the law, that no person
t?an acguire jwoperty 1n intvxientiin; liquors.
It would be absurdity to d il nc an article of
commerce not property, and by the same law
empower agents to sell the article as the property
of cities and towns. The Constitution secures
to the people of this State the right of acquiring
^ivperty and protecting it; but the Legislature
mav^letermine that articles injurious to the public
heSUinud morals, shall not constitute property
withirT^sjurisdiction. when used for the purpose
of injaring^uublic health and morals, and
there would be no oC^-don for complaint that a
provision of the Constit iftcn was void.
In his concluding paragraph. Judge Shepley
offer* us either horn of a dilemin", as follows:
' It may be said that a court of justice's not authorized
to introduce, by construction, such limitations?that
it savors more o1 legislation than of
construction. It may be so. And if the Court
may not introduce any such limitations, without
encroaching up??u the forbidden province of another
d"partment of the government, it cannot
omit its duty to declare that provision (that in
relation to property in liquor) in violation of the j
Constitution and void.
Nonsuit set aside, and a new trial granted.?
According to this decision, many cases where
liquor was taken by officers from on buard vessels,
and from wharves while in transit from one
place to another, and destroyed, were in violation
of the law, and a claim for damages may he instituted.
We are glad to have a construction to
the law at last."
Cure for I>vsenterv.?A highly respectable
? j > ...l? i...? i
ana ajn'U caur^i'uiiuciii, whv un^ ivwi mm uuui
the account of the prevalence of this distressing
complaint in Newberry district, as publislied in
Saturday's Courier, r quests the publication of
the following specific for its cure, which, though
very simple, has never f tiled under his observation
for many years, viz: Take an equal quantity
of good sweet molasses, olive oil and good West
India rum, stir together and simmer over the tire.
Stirling whilst simmering until the decoction is
well incor|K>rated together then take it off the
tire, but continue stirring until the mixture is
quite cool. It is thou ready for bottling or use.
The dose for an adult, if the disease is very violent
and system much reduced, is one table spoonful
three times a day, morning, noon and night
?it not very severe, twice a day, morning and
night?and if the attack is slight, one spoonful,
taken at night, will have the desired effect. For
children and young persons, in proportion to age;
for infants, a teaspoouful is sufficient. It is also
a tadical cure for summer complaint in children.
If the disease should be checked loo sud
i**iiivt so as to occasion cosuveuess, reduce tue
dose, and use a little castor oil.? Courier.

new ocean mail contiacts into which the English
Government lias recently entered, come into operation,
the whole cost to the nation for conveying
its correspondence will amount to nearly a

Rain.
We liave had rain in abundance. The crops in this
vicinity have been greatly favored, and we have great
hoDes that an abundant yield will reward the farmers
toil. We hope that our River will not get unruly and
transcend its limits; such an event would be very ruinous
to the river plantations, where the prospects are
so flattering at present .
Temperance Celebration.
It will be seen by their advertisement that Kershaw
Division, No. 9, intend celebrating their fourth anniverary
on Saturday next the 3d of July.
Death of Bishop Gadsden.
Bishop C. E. Gadsden, the venerated head of the
Episcopal Church in South-Carolina, expired in Charles
ton on Thursday morning last at eight o'clock. The
Evening News thus refers to the melancholy event:
Death ok Bishop Gadsden.? It becomes
our melancholy office to announce the death, at his
residence in this city, this morning, of the Right
Reverend Christopher Edwards Gadsden, of th/
Protestant Episcopal Church of South CaroliA
and Bishop of this Diocese. Bishop GacKaen
was the grands.m of Christopher GadAen ot
Revolutionary memory. He was a WWine no
less distinguished for his long and finest services
to the Church, of which he wa^n ornament,
than for his solid learning. simAe piety, unassuming
manners, and ainiabloAporcinent. He
was 613 years of age, and hA been suffering for
some time with sickness ard protracted debility.
Bishop Gadsden was * graduate of Yale Col
lege, in the same das' with Mr. Uainoun, ana
was ordained a d'-ac<vi hi 1807. by Bishop Moore,
of New York, and priest in 1810, by Bishop
Madison, of Virginia.
He was fiist called to the Rector-hip of Biggin
Church, St. John's Berkley, in 1808, resigned in
1810, at which time he was called to St. Philip's
Churck in this city, as assistant minister to the
Rev. James Dowar Simons. At the death of
Mr. Simons, he was eh cted Rector of that Church,
in 1814. In the following year he received the
degree of I). D. Irom the College of South Carolina.
In the office of Rector of St. Philip's, he
continued until 1840, when he was chosen Bish
op of this Diocese, and consecrated in Trinity
Church. Boston, on Sunday, June 21, 1840.
While we are writing, the bells are tolling in
t
respect to his memory.
A Good Suggestion.
It lias been suggested to us (and the suggestion is
an admirable one.) t'"at a Society or Club be formed for
Educational purposes. The plan is simple and effective,
and would doubtless be the means of doing great
good. Let each member contribute yearly, say 5 or
10 dollars. Let this fund be kept for the sole purpose
of educating thoroughly, some worthy, intelligent boy
in our community, who may not have the means for
the accomplishment of a complete education. This
fond, :?r ? ptirt r.f it laa nv.inli mny bo nooessnry)
could be loaned or given according to circumstances;
and when the party becomes able to pay it back, it
might be used in the same way tor the education of
others. Think how much good might be effected in
our community, if each individual would only feel it in
his heart to do something for the cause of education
and morality. In place ol having scores of idle boys,
loaling around shops and thronging our streets, they
might be taken up, educated and made to do something
for themselves and for society. There are many
instances where this plan has been productive of the
greatest good. Sonic of our wisest and best mon,
whose attainments in different departments of science
and literature, and who challenge our highest admiration,
were proteges ol such associations as we ate in
favor of forming.
Wo have only at this time, a deRire to call attention
to the project in order that some of our
friends and correspondents ma}' lavor us wun meir
views n cxtenso. The subject is one worthy to be discussed
am' of deep interest to all who love their country.
It is o^r duty to aid in promoting the common
good; and while the motto may be?"At the public
good we aim," t&C fear it is only in name, and not iu
We could enlargoherT^o^TeTT42Misiderablo extent,
but deem it wholly unnecessary, as wefit^tf? soon to bo
favored with the views of others more able tll&n ourselves
to give light upon this important subject.
Free Soil Convention.
A circular has been issued, signed Samuel Lewis,
Chairman, calling a Convention of Free Soil Democrats
to bo held at Pittsburg, on the 11th of August next,
for the purpose of selecting candidates for the offices ol
President and Vice President. Friends of the principles

1848, are invited to send delegates. It is stated in

General Scott's Chances Improving.
Telegraphic despatches from Washington state that
advices are daily being received, which tend clearly to
indicate that General Scott's chances of success are improving.
The enthusiasm in the large Statc-s is increasing,
and the feeling of disappointment at tirst exhibited
bv the adherents of Mr. Fillmore and Mr. Webster
is rapidly wearing oil', and giving place to a strong
feeling in fayor >f the nominee of the Whig National
Convention, so that there is every probability that an
undivided front will bo presented during the ensuing
campaign.

by running over a hand car that had been placed
upon the track some two or three miles from
Atlantic. A fireman, Mr. Benj. Houston, was
killed, and one or two others injured, but not
very seriously. A very remarkable circumstance
occurred with the passenger cars which continu
d their course down a grade, as the engine and
tender were detached by the collision, and com
pletely out of the way. The speed became very
rapid and continued so for several raile3, carry- sjjjs
ing the alarmed passengers, among whom were J3
ladies and children, with great velocity across . ..-1
the bridge at Whetstone, and the Chattahoochee M

our State have so long neglected this pious work
to perpetuate the memory of the illustrious dead? -m
It cannot be wilful forgetfulness; is it, then, cul?
pable neglect ? Surely, our people have not so
soon forgotten now that he is dead, one to whom T
they were sod ">ted when he was living. They '|a
cannot but feel that the proudest monument they . j -Js!
can erect to virtue so exalted, and to genius so *

Music.?Every heart that has not become ad- ;1

the sweet voice, every note drawn from theinstru- *
ment by skilful hands, strikes a corresponding
chord, which thrills through every fibre of the sjl'
human heart and trembles like the soft breeze on
the strings of an Eolian harp in every breath
Nothing is more humanizing, more touching,
more soothing. It transports the soul into
world of harmony in which every uiscord that j|
agitates life is forgotten, it changes our being
and verv nature : vet will it be believed that there
are beings, heedless, frivolous beings, who will..

solicitation of these very pretenders to musical . I

We have often experienced sensations of the "'$
most painful nature when present at suchunpardonable
vulgarity. It is a misfortune not to love ; Xj
music, but it is a crime to desecrate that worship W
by a public confession of infidelity. J
Are young ladies?for to them these lines are
more particularly addressed?are young ladies
aware how much their reputation for politeness, J
for good breeding, suffers by such revolting conduct
? We should think not, for we are coufident ' JH
that their good sense would soon point out to
them how greatly they injure themselves and mortify
others, and they would, wo are sure, refrain
from an act of so bold an aggression, which must.
recoil on their own heads. - j

.QTWo have seen tlie young bride blooming, as it ' ]
were, as the bird of paradise and the fair flower of hop tJM
the pride of her father and the joy of her mother, her ' jj^B
cheek flushed witn anticipation, and her eye beaming .
with the soft expression of love?the gay dreams of life yjl
dancing on her fancy with the rich and variegated tints
of tho rainbow promise. We have seen all this changed j II

chamber for tho sepulchcr of the dead ; and all this

praise, and will, so long as it makes positive cures, and
cheers tho despairing familv fireside.
