We admit that "Governor Ho'dcn'' would

ia Uat as "sonorous brass." .We know that
it woald make yon bold up your bead when

This would be all eery nice indeed. But tre

that "vaunt'rng ambition orerlsape itself, and
breaks its own neck. Take advice then.- And,

joar ambition has swallowed np your usual

must disenss the land issue ia the Standard,
instead of giving np its columns to the biog.
raphy of a nun whose opposition you affect
to despise. Again, you have egregioasly
blundered when you told tbe-public that you
advocate taxes for internal improvement, and
that though tbe people have been taxed for
improvements from whidi they have not re

cheerfully. Now, such 'assertions would bo

HAYNES.
THK NEW PROGRAMME AT WASHING-
' i TON.
The President, his Cabinet advisers, and the
Administration party in Congress, have adopted
an entirely new programme within the last day or
two. They have abandoned the plain and distinct
issue of tbe admission of Kansas under the Le-
compton . Constitution, and connected that iFue
with another, a different, and an entirely foreign
question. In a word, they have connected the
bill for the admission of Kansas with a bill for tbe
admision of Minnesota the two States to come
into the Union together.
We are, and have been, the zealous and uncom-
prottising advocates of the immediate and uncon
ditional admission of Kansas, under the Lecomp
ton Constitution. We have never wavered in our
support of what is called the President's policy on
this subject . We have gone for Lecompton first.
last, and all ' the time And we did so be
cause we thought the Lecompton Con
stitution, in every legal and technical sene, had
been tairiv and properly ordained and because we
believed that the rights and demands of the South.
so far as mere abstract principle was concerned,
would be partially, if not entirely, satisfied by the
admission of Kansas nnder that instrument. We
believed the question of its admission, under the
Liscompton Constitution, involved a test a touch
stone by which tbe sincerity or the hypocrisy of
the professions of Northern men would be demon
strated. We believed, also, that iU admission
thus, upon its own merits upon the merits of the
Lecompton instrument would be the speediest
method of settling : the differences net ween the
ortb and the South, and putting an end to all
further agitation and excitement on the subject of
slavery in the Territories. For these reasons thus
briefly stated we have been from the beginning.
and we are still, the warm, earnest, and decided
advocates of the policT of admitting Kansas under
the Lecompton Constitution. "
But this new programme just instituted at
Washington, we object to,' disapprove of. and re
pudiate, out and out. - The bill now before the
Senate for the admission of Kansas and Minne
sota is an "omnibus bill" of the most odious
character. It is altogether a catch affair a mis
erable party contrivance which will test nothing,
and settle nothing. It b dosigned to procure
votes for the admission of Kansas, which would
otherwise not be given for its admission under
the Lecompton Constitution, and upon the merits
of that Constitution. It is designed to afford a
refuge a way of escape to members of Congress
from the North, whose timidity, whose unrelia
bility, and whose absolute unsoundness on the
qurstkm of Southern rights will not permit them
to sustain tne policy originally marked out by the
President and insisted unon bv the whole South, of
admitting Kansas under the Lecompton Constitu
tion, unqualifiedly and unconditionally, and free
from embarrassment witn any other question
whatsoever. It is another, device to blind and
delude the people, and to retrieve tbe sinking
fortunes nf the bogus Democracy, and as such we
repudiate it and shall oppose it with might and
main, aad -we call upon the fourteen Southern
Whigs and Americans in Congress to do the same.
It is a cheat and a fraud upon the South.
We havenot the space nor the time for further
remarks to-day. We shall resume the subject
hereafter. Richmond Whin. - -
From the Petersburg Intelligencer.
Tbe subjoined statement made by the reguli r
Washington correspondent of the Richmond En-
qnirer will excite equal surprue and indignation.
We can hardly believe it possible that the Secre
tary of war and the Administration, will, from
feelings of obstinacy and rosentfulntss, execute
the purpose Indicated by this writer.. Such con
duct the whole country would pronounce inhuman
and atrocious: :
"Secretary Floyd now declares his determina
tion not to accept of the services, of a volunteer
force, even should Congress authorize the Presi
dent to call them out. It is the " war of the

tions of the Board he had consulted Mr. Kemp
P. Battle on .the subject of the election of a collec
tor of th taxes due for last year from the citizens
residing in- the new city limits, and presented to
the Board Mr. B's opinion, which was read by
Mr. Marriott The opinion was a very long and
elaborate one, and clearly showed that the Celloc
tor of the city for last year, having been debarred
by the action of the Court from making said col
lections during his term of office,.' and a new and
different Collector having been chosen the present
year, the old collector could not legally make the
collections now. The new collector was shown to
be the proper officer to collect said taxes.
Mr. Hutchins said that while he would prefer
the selection of Mr. Andrews, the old collector,
for making the collections in question, he should
be governed by Mr. Battle's opinion, and there
fore moved that Murray, the new Collector, be
appointed to collect the taxes due for last year
from those residing in the new city limits. On
the motion being put, the vote stood four in the
affirmative and four in the negative. ' The Mayor
saia uisi wniie ne preierrea giving, iuu ixuuxTing
to Mr. Andrews, he thought it, hi duty to be
governed by what appeared to be the law in the

On motion, Mr. Battle's account of $25 for bis
opinion was allowed, though several of the mem

Mr. Root called the attention of the Board to
the objections to the Citizen' GuarCL He said
that he had conversed with a large number of
persons on the subject and had not found the first
one in favor of the Citizens' Guard ; he therefore
moved that it be abolished.
Mr. Tucker said he thought such a proceeding
would have the appearance of child's play.
Mr. Root said it was no child's play for a man
who possessed no property, to be compelled to
walk guard.
Various other'members ex press edjopinions. when
the vote on Mr. Root's motion to abolish the Cit
izens' Guard was taken, with the following result :
Aff, Messrs. Root Turner, Smith, andSorrell t ;
At, Metsrs. Clayton, Marriott, Hutchins, and
Tucker 4.
The vote being a tie, the Mayor said that he
regarded the system of Citizens' Guard as unjust,
and furthermore, ne baa issued warrants against
several persons who were found to be possessed of
no property, and the law agamst tbem was inop
erative, .lie, therefore, voted in -favor of Mr.
Root's motion. So the Citizens' Guard was abol
ished. ' Mr. Turner moved that a night watch of six
persons be appointed, and that they be allowed
one dollar per night each.
Mr. Marriott moved as an amendment that the
members of the night watch be allowed $2 per
night each.
' Tbe amendments was voted down, and Mr.
Turner's motion was then carried by" the follow

Friday night if n thought it necessary.
Mr. Msirriott moved that a Committee of three
be appointed to make out a schedule of the arti
cles necessary to be listed when the census of the
city shall be taken. Carried. -
Mr. Root nominated Mr. W. J. W. Crowder
as census-taker, j and said he thought Mr.'C. the
most suitable. person for such a task, as his exten
sive ' acquaintance with the citizens eminently
fitted him for it
Mr. Hutchins nominated the Clerk of the Bimrd,
Mr, J. J. Christophers, for the office of census
taker, r -
The vole being taken, Mr. -Christophers was
elected by the following vote: For Mr. Christo
phers Messrs. Clayton, Smith, Hutchins, Turner,

Mr: Root, from the Committee on Pumps, stated
that the Committee had concluded it was expedi
ent to keep in use the present year the wooden
pumps, as most of them are now new and in good
repair. The Committee had allowed $210 to
keep the pumps in repair during the year.
It was stated that there were ;2i pumps belong

A Care for Whooping Cough.
St. Htacwthk, Canada E,' Aug. 21,1856. -Messrs.
Setli W. Fowlo A Co. Gentlemen; Several
months since a little daughter of mine, ten years of
age, was taken with Whooping Cough in a very aggra
vated form, and nothing we -could do for her seemed
in any way to relieve her suffering. We at length do-'
cided to try a bottle of your Dr. Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry. In three hours after she haf commenced
using it, she was greatly relieved, and in less than
three days was entirely cured, and is now welL . I have
since reeommended the Balsam to many of my neigh
bors, who have ased it, and in no case have I known it
fail of effecting a speedy cure. , '. .
- You are at liberty to make any use of the above you
think proper. If it shall induce any body to use your
Balsam I shall be glad, for I have great confidence iu
it. I Yours, P. GUITTE,

Messrs. Dove A Co : Gentlemen My stallion, Mor
gan Champion, got his leg hung on the stable door,
and stripped the skin off' his hind leg about six inches
in length, and two inches wide, making a very senouc.
sore, and I was fearful I could cot use him for six
months. I procured a bottle of your TURF OIL
from Mr. C. T. Patterson's Drug StorS, and applied it
as directed. The swelling has entirely gone, and the
leg is now cured. I consider your Turf Oil far better
than any medicine I hac over used ; certainly it bas
effected the most remarkable cure that has ever come
under my observation, and I have had an experience
of 40 years in the management of horses. You can
nse this as you please. I give it for the public good.
