The notice of the change in the editorial de partment of the Telegraph wo copy from the Richmond Whig of the sth instant: “ Richard K. Cralle, Esq., of known ability, * and long experience, has taken the command of the U. States Telegraph, or will do so by Ist of September. We look forward to his labors in the good old cause, with high hope and confident ex pectation. No-man within the circle of our ac quaintance is so well qualified, by his editorial experience, his knowledge of parties and politi cians, his familiarity with the past party history of the country, and his constitutional erudition, to stand at the head of a Press which, from its position, should boa beacon light to the State Right party of the United States.” FROM FLORIDA. Extract of a letter received in Charleston, dated “ MtcAxot’t, (E. F.) August 2. The troops are now busily engaged in evacua ting Fort Drane. They arc removing to this post, supposed to be a healthier one. Wo hear nothing here of a Summer Campaign, and I can’t tell in fact whether Gcu. Call intends to make one or not. One half of the troops both at Micanopy and Fort Drane arc unfit for duty. They arc broken down by fever and ague. If nothing can he done this Summer, as I very much fear, I trust in Heaven that we may be more fortunate next winter than the last. If Gen. Jessup takes the field, he will take iTwilh greater advantages than Gen. Scott had—with a better knowledge of the country, obtained during the last campaign, and with troops too whom he can keep all the Fall, Winter and Spring in the field ; for I take it for granted that the regulars now in Georgia, and a body of friendly Indians will be sent to Florida in the Fall, and Gen. Jessup will bo able to keep them until he finishes the business. The militia bf our country are brave and admirable men, but In the field they arc thinking of their homes, and wives and families, of their Crops and country houses, and their notes in banks —a man who has all these things to think of may be very brave, but he is unfitted to be a good soldier.” CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION, ike. So far as we can judge from what we learn In our course, so far, the Stale Rights Ticket has every reasonable prospect of success, if the whole State Rights party be but true to it. Wo believe this ticket, as a whole, has given more general and entire satisfaction to the party, that any which has been nominated, for many years; but there is rea son to fear that it may be entirely defeated by the kind and generous feelings excited among the State Rights men generally, by the admirable and highly praiseworthy conduct, in Congress, of one of the individuals on the antagonist ticket. Now, there is no man who more highly estimates and admires the late truly Southern, able, and inde pendent conduct of Gen. Glascock, on the slave question, than we do—none, who is more warm ly grateful for it—who has been more prompt to acknowledge and applaud it—or who could be more ready and desirous to reward it, so far as it can be done with justice to others. We should be as much gratified as any one to vote for him, if at liberty lo do so. Hut wc owe our entire VOTE to the Slate Rights ticket—not merely be cause it was nominated by the party, for wc pre sume it needs no argument to shew that wo are 110 mere party man, and hold ourselves no farther bound by the acts of the parly, than they are consistent with the principles of that party, and our conscientious sense of right ; but never was this consistency more unquestionable, than In the nomination of the present ticket, Not, perhaps, that wc would ourselves have selected every in dividual on that ticket, in preference of ally other; but this is a matter as to men only, on which wo shall never contend while principle is adhered to ; and this was well and nobly done, in the Con gressional nomination : Wc declared so at the time, and that declaration of course implied a pledge to the entire ticket, fr om which we can never honestly ami justly waver, so long as it maintains throughout the same relation to our principles. We have heard no member of the party make the slightest objection to it on prin ciple—none can do so. The whole party is there fore bound, so far as principle and party can bind, and by every consideration of honesty or justice, to vote for it. We again say, there is no man entertains rnoro.kindly and grateful feelings toward Gen. Glascock than wo do, or who could more earnestly desire a fair opportunity to vote for him. And, apart from personal feeling, op posed as his late conduct is to that of all his col leagues, and accordant as it is with the principles of ourselves and our entire party, his triumph would be our triumph, and his defeat, our defeat. But there is not a man on our ticket but would have done ns ho did, and we have no right to tri fle with the feelings and interests of those who have consented to become our eaddidates. We must bo just, before wo are generous; and it should ever bo the highest pride of the true Stale Rights man, never, under any temptation of fear or favor, lo swerve from the eternal and immuta ble principles of right and justice. No good over did or over can come of a contrary course. Let us, then, do by our candidates, as, if in their situ ation, and they in ours, we would have them do by us. Hut the question is, not merely what is due to the candidates themselves, but to our principles and parly, in opposition to the principles and par ty of the opposition ; for it is plain, that a general or extensive Stale Rights vole for Gen. Glascock, would probably defeat, not merely some one only of our candidates, but the KXTiiiF. ticket, and thereby secure, no only his election, but that of all his colleagues and fellow candidates, whose late anti-Southern course wc as much disapprove and detest, as wc approve and admire his. Is any Slate Rights man prepared to promote and risk such a result, by voting for Gen. Glascock ! Is any one so blind as not to see that ho does pro mote and risk that result by such a vote 1 All will admit that the two parties are nearly equally divided, that the contest is uncertain, and that but a very small majority will decide it. Now, if any one only of our candidates were to bo affected and defeated by the State Rights vote given to Gen. Glascock, we might perhaps waive these objections and boar it patiently. But such will not be the ease. It will probably affect all alike, or nearly so ; for, as no concert of action can pos sibly be formed as to which shall be dropped, by all or most of those who vote for Gen. Glascock, some will of course drop one, some another, and so on, throughout the whole ticket; and in this way, the entire ticket will be thrown behind the other ticket, and entirely defeated, to the benefit, as much of Jabfii Jackson, Owens, &c. &c. as of Gen. Glascock. Suppose, for example, two thirds only, or say twenty-two thousand five hun dred of the State Rights men vote for Gen. Glas cock, and their voles arc taken equally from our nine candidates—this would of course be two thousand five hundred from each and all, and would throw the entire ticket that much farther back, and give the other entire ticket lljat much the advantage of it. If we recollect rightly, the Union party majority in the last election for Gov ernor, was but about that number, and being pro bably much less now, the vote for Gen. Glascock, above mentioned, would, in all probability, throw the election out of the hands of the Stale Rights parly, into those of our opponents ; fur wc cannot reasonably expect our majority to bo more than 2,500. We trust our State Rights friends will reflect well and long on these things, ere a single one of them gives a vote to Gen. Glascock, at such hazard to ourownentire ticket, and benefit lo that of our opponents; for if any one does so, why not alll —and if all should not, of course, neither should any one. —These, too, who are in favor of the White Electoral Ticket, should reflect that in injuring or defeating the Congressional Ticket, they are injuring or defeating that also ; for of course as they injure or defeat the former, they decrease or destroy the prospects of the latter, by discouraging all those who are more or less dis posed to vote with the majority, or to relax their Zealand efforts when they expect to be in the mi nority. If the one succeeds, in Octol>cr, the suc cess of the other, in November, may bo consider ed certain —and, vice versa. —Wc suggest this, not because it has any influence on us—opposed as wc arc to both While and Van liuren, and all such men—but because it may have on those of our friends who differ from us in this matter, and who of course have more at risk in the Slate Rights vote for Gen. Glascock, than wc have. Maiuson Springs, August 11, 1826. MADISON SPRINGS. This delightful summer retreat has been great ly improved stincc I visited it last, and is now one of the most pleasant and comfortable watering places in the country. The main building has been ceiled and plastered throughout—a very wide piazza has been added to and extended round AUCiUSTAa SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, ISJSO. three sides of it—and a long range of comfortable frame buildings have been erected for tho accom-' modalion of families, extending from the large building to the outer gate on the Southern side. These, in addition to the other similar houses previously erected, render the entire establishment exceedingly extensive, and I understand that it can noW accommodate three hundred persohs. Near two hundred and fitly wete here yesterday, and there arc about two hundred to-day, with others continually coming. The establishment continues under the charge of Major John R. Anderson and lady, whose excellent manage ment affords the utmost satisfaction, and indeed is a general theme of approbation. Major An derson's exertions in every department arc un ceasing and indefatigable, while the kind and gentle attentions of his amiable and intelligent lady, particularly to invalids, excites tho warmest praisj, and most grateful and respectful regard. Two other persons in every respect so agreeable to their numerous guests, and so admirably qualifi ed for the arduous duties of such an establishment, it would he next to impossible to find. The table, under their joint care, is everything that the most delicate or fastidious appetite or palate can reasonably desire—the lodging rooms, aity, neat and comfortable—and the parlour, supplied with choice musical instruments and other refined means of recreation and amusement, thronged with the first beauty, intelligence, and fashion of the country, and beaming With radiant smiles, or ringing with the gay laugh, the song, lire notes of the piano, or the music of the dance, added to the detighful walks in the beautiful groves which surround the place, or rides over the romantic country in tho vicinity, renders the whole little less than a terrestrial paradise. The Madison Springs arc situated in Madi son cotmty, about six miles North East of Dan iolsvillc, 26 North of Lexington, 23 North-East of Athens, and 13 South of Carncsville—on the main stage road from Athens to Clarksville—and tho mail, which passes twice a Week iir a two horsc stage, is opened at the Post Office kept there, and thus continually supplies tho visitors with the papers and news of the day. The site is elevated and romantic, tho air pure and bra cing, and the whole country around exceedingly healthy. Tho common spring water is as pure and cool as can be desired ; and the Mineral wa ter, which gushes suddenly in a largo stream out of the rock, in a romantic gorge of the hill on which the Hotel is situated, and about 350 yards from the latter) possesses great medical virtues, and has been fouild peculiarly successful in many complaints, hut particularly dispepslrt, or any af fection of tho stomach or abdominal viscera; and also in bilious cases and affections #f tho liver. Tho water is perfectly clear, light, sparkling and gaseous, and to most persons by no means dis agrccablo-to tho taste. It is one of the finest and most efficient tonics that can he condfeivcd, and ensures a most vigorous appetite to all who use it. The principal mineral ingredient is iron, with perhaps a slight mixture of copperas • For dis pepsia it may considered a certain cure. One of our Augusta citizens, Mr. B. F. Chew, who came hero but a week or two ago, greatly afflicted with that most distressing complaint, and so re duced and debilitated that he could scarcely walk, is already completely relieved, and almost as fleshy and healthy iu appearance as t ever saw him. Ho has a liner appetite than he perhaps ever possessed, and, without at all restraining, is not in the least subjected to dispeptic symptoms. Ho is delighted with its cflects upon him—can scarcely speak ofthem without rapture —and has determined to purchase one of tho lots for sale, improve it, and fix his summer residence .here in future. I myself was much troubled with flatu lency, in addition to inflammation of the lungs, from which (the flatulency) it immediately and completely relieved me. In addition to the large Hotel establishment and its society, there arc some fifteen or eighteen private summer residences, extending in two rows along two beautiful and romantic parallel ridges in front of the Hotel,jm the right and left, and 250 yards apart. In the. centre is an exceedingly pretty valley, commencing, with the ridges, about 100 yards from the Hotel, and gradually, and .(al most regularly, descending to a deep and shady ravine, which commences abruptly in front, and about 300 yards distant, in which is the Mineral Spring, and across which, is a covered bridge with seats, and steps descending to the spring, forming a delightful place of retirement and conversation lo the continual visiters at the spring. The walk to the spring extends down the very centre of the valley just mentioned, over which and the high ridges on each side, is a lofty and exceedingly thick grove of oak, trimmed up below, so as not to intercept the view—the whole forming one of the prettiest and most romantic rural scenes, par ticularly when viewed from the piazza offhe Ho tel, that the imagination can well conceive.— Why will the people of tho South, and particu larly of Georgia, Hock for mere pleasure to the Northern watering places of Saratoga, Balston, &c. when here as home is one so far more beau tiful and attractive in its aspect, as comfortable and pleasant in its accommodations, enjoyments) and society, and as healthy, if not more so, in its region and atmosphere 1 * An rnalysis of its waters was made some time ago, by the Rev. Mr. Hoyt, of Athens, and published in the Chronicle, which it would he as well to republish, with this notice, for the infor mation of those who may hope for relief from them. Madison Springs, August Bth, 1836. The following is the letter of the Rev. Mb. Ho XT, referred to by our correspondent; Athens, April 6th, 1832. Dear Sir .—Your note of the 2d insl. lies be fore me, in which you request me to give my views of the Medicinal qualities of the Madison Spring waters. With this request 1 mostcheeifully com ply. Ho essential have been the benefits which have been experienced from the use of those wa ters, that I may well say, (hey stand very high in my estimation. When I fir.,t li-ifed the Madi- son Springs, in the sniiimcrof 1830, my health f -was very had. An attack of bilious fever, with ; which I had been sorely afflicted the preceding Autumn, (before my removal to this place,) had left my stomach in a debilitated dyspeptic state. — From indigestion, debility, and flatulency, I suf fered much. There, contrary to my expectations, I found myself decidedly convalescent in less than one week, Tho acid secretions in a great mea sure ceased, and tho stomach, in a few weeks, as sumed a more healthful lone, As you will no doubt remember, I visited tho Springs several times in tho course of that season, and all my vis its wore attended with tho same happy effects,— When I left the Springs, [ had many fears that the beneficial cllecls of the waters would not prove permanent. 1 am happy, (and 1 trust, grateful to God,) in saying that those fears were groundless. My health has been gradually im proving ever since my visit to that pure restora tive fountain. My case is not a solitary one.— Well do I remember the feeble, cadaverous ap pearance of a friend of mine, who landed nt your door one evening lust summer, from Washington, Wilkes county. Ho had just partially iccovcrcd from a fever, and at the time ofhis arrival he was evidently in a deplorable state of health. If I recollect right, that gentleman, in about eight or ten days, had so far recovered, as to enable him to join in a deer chase without any inconvenience: and I believe in less than one month, was perfectly restored. It is true, as you intimate in your note, that I have had a long and thorough acquaintance with the mineral waters of Saratoga and Balston, At the Saratoga Springs I resided many years. And highly as I value those justly celebrated waters, especially in Scrofula, there is not one spring a mong them all, (perhaps fifty in number) whose waters I consider equal to those of tho Madison Springs, in ordinary eases of debility and dys pepsia, But ns it usually happens at tho Saratoga Springs, with those unaccustomed to the waters, so is it at tho Madison Springs; patients use the waters too freely at first, they do not allow them selves sufficient time; they neglect to take regu lar exorcise ; and ill Very many instances, the in creased appetite is too freely indulged. Were these mistakes or errors cautiously avoid ed, I have no doubt that many individuals would he restored to health by the Madison Springs wa ters, who now leave tho place without receiving much essential benefit. These errors of which I have spoken, ate not confined to the Saratoga and Madison Springs ; they usually obtain, I believe, at most of our watering places, and, therefore, they cannot he too frequently exposed. Where tho disease consists in, or arises from, an affection of the stomach, or a derangement of the digestive organs, I feel confident that by a ju dicious use of the Madison Spring waters, in most cases, permanent relief might ho obtained. It is scarcely necessary for mo lo soy, Sir, that the atmosphere about those Springs is remarka bly clastic and salubrious. So fur as my knowl edge extends, this fact is admitted by all who have been fanned and refreshedl on a hot summer’s day, by the cool breezes which play through the oak grove around yont boose. In conclusion, I do not hesitate to say, that nu merous as the tics are which bind me to Athens, the value of a residence here is considerably in creased by the contiguity of tho place to the Mad ison Springs. I am, dear sir, yours, respectfully. NATHAN HOYT. Mu. W.n. M. Morton.

The Friendly Creeks. —The Columbus Sen tingl of Friday last says:—“ Wo have just heard, from a source entitled to much credit, that the Government has determined to make an arrangc mctit (If possible) with the friendly Indians to enter into the service of the United States against the Scminoles in the approaching campaign. We learn that Col. Lane, one of Gen. Jessup’s aids, is at this time engaged in bringing about the de sirable object. This scheme seems lo us to boa measure of sound policy, particularly when we reflect how very serviceable the celebrated Chief Jim Boy and his command were to Gen.

Augusta, August 10th, 1830. WE, tho undersigned, having been posed on by the misrepresentation of the stage, contractors, their agents, & understrappers, on the line from Columbus, Ga. lo Augusta, will, in order to enable the travelling community to have correct information of the manner and lime of the route, lay (iefui’e them the treatment wtf, and other# be fore us, have received from these veritable gentry of the Stage Depa/lrnent. We left Columbus last Sunday evening, under the idea of getting here before six o'clock, to take the Hail Hoad Carson Wednesday morning.— We received on the way repeated and positive assurances from tho agents that we would get here, without fail, by the above mentioned time ; and so far did they go, that an agent actually en dorsed the assurance on the Way Hill. Now, wo complain that their assertions, whether wilfully false or not have turned out to be so. The stage driver G uour, tvilfidlif detained us on the road, by slow travelling, in order to prevent our getting on to Charleston. When in four miles of the City, wc requested him to drive faster; he refused to do so—not that his horses were fa tigued, hut to detain us in Augusta, at the Kagle and Phoenix Hotel. We arrived at said Hotel at or near six, and were told by the drivers and others there, that the Cars had left by an half hour. Even this was posivcly false, for on pro ceeding llu s rc, the Cars left as wc got on the Bridge. We make the above statements that the stage contractors may look to the evil, if they are inno cent of sanctioning it; that the public may pro vide aganist the imposition, ami not he detained, against their will, merely to fdl a hill at the Eagle and Phomlx Hotel—nor deterred, if they chose to abide here, from putting up at (ho Globe , a house, which, from tho attentions of its spirited ! proprietor, wc recommend most cheerfully.

Bosh, by profession a Tailor, left the town of Eatonton on the night of the first day of Augnst,nndcr circumstances not the most honor aide to him as a man or a gentleman. He had for several months, contracted debts to some a inount, and left without discharging them. Some instances of delinquency were truly of an aggra vated character, for he had become in arrears ,lo some one or two females who had woiked for him, and then left without paying them a dollar. This notice is given that the public may be upon their guard against such a miscreant and villain. Thu said BUSH is about five feet seven or eight incites high, light complected, with blue eyes, light hair, twenty two or three ycafs old; wore, when he left, a blue cambist frock coat, and white broad hi ini hat. Thine is no excuse' for his conduct on the score of a lack of money, for it is believed lie had in his posscssioii be tween three and four hundred dollars. The last heard from, he was in Milledgeville on the morn ing of the second, and designed to leave the next. F. C. SANFORD, JAMES GRIGGS, E. B. STOW, DANIEL SLADE, P. M. •Hf- Eatonton.
