double it, however, and hope onr friends,

der these circumstances, jvhat can he do

he cannot even fill an important office, not
even that of postmaster in Athens,'with
out the “advice and consent” of the Sen

solving the Union to protect slavery from

licans combined, cannot injure it in four
years the one-thousandth part as much as
Southern agitators liavo done in the last
four weeks!
We copy the following in reference to
the strength of parties in the next Con
gress from an exchange paper:
“ The election on Tuesday indicates, be-
yond a doubt, that the next House of Rep
resentatives of the United States will be
opposed to the Republican party. At
present they control it, having organized
it with a Republican Speaker, after a long
and desperate struggle. The Democrats
and opponents of the Republican party
have elected the following members in the
three States:

shall endeavor to make the “Watchman”
more Interesting to tlio general reader
than it has liecn lor some time past. Feel
ing as we did and do, a deep interest in
the prosperity of our country, and solemn
ly impressed with tho belief that we had
reached a crisis in onr affairs which demand
ed that every patriot should exert what
ever influence ho possessed in favor of the
preservation of the Union and tho Consti
tution and the enforcement of tho Laws,
we have devoted more space to politics
than otherwise we should have done. In
future wo hope thcro may bo no ground
for complaint on this subject.
“ To those may be added the five South
ern districts in Illinois, tho two members
in California, and at least ten, if not more,
in New York, making in the free States,
at least thirty-six, with a chance of others
in New Jersey, Wisconsin. Michigan, and
Massachusetts. Every member from tho
slave States, save Blair, of St. Louis, and
perhaps Winter Davis, of Baltimore, if lie
should he elected, wiil oppose tho Repub
lican party. The House will thus stand :
Democrats in tho North 86
Anti-Republicans in the South 88

“ This gives a majority against the Re
publicans in the House of eleven,as it con
sists, in nil, of but two hundred and thirty-
seven members. The United States Sen
ate—which meets after tho 4th of March
—will also contain a majority opposed to
the Republican party. If so unfit, inex
perienced, imbecile a man as Lincoln
should, unfortunately, be elected President,
he would meet both houses of Congress op
posed to him at the beginning of his Ad
ministration, and would be unable to car
ry through any Executive measure.—
There would bo a dead lock, an unfriendly
feeling to begin with, betweeu him and
Congress.

This body convened at Millcdgevillo on
Wednesday. Of eonrse, we have not yet

Financial Condition of Georgia.
We are indebted to the able and efficient
Comptroller General, Mr. P. Thwcatt, for
a copy of” his annual report, from which we
shall occasionally mnko extracts.
The following synopsis we copy from
the Constitutionalist:
The cash balance in the Treasury, on the
20th of October was $273,820 54. From
this sum is to be deducted the amountofun
drawn appropriations, $241,727 90, which
.leaves the sum of $33,092 64, after paying
all appropriations for tho political year
which has just closed.
The good assets of the State amount to
88(ii .025, which consist of stocks in banks
and railroads. The State railroad is not
included in the “ good assets,” because nei
ther the Comptroller or State Treasurer
have any authority to estimate its value.
Some idea, however, may be formed of its
value, when it is known that this road paid
into the State Treasury, of nett earnings,
in 5 859, $420,800, and in 1860, $450,000.
The report states that the total increase
on the whole property returned this year
(I860) over the last (1859) is $62,732,901.
In 1859, tho increase over 1858 waa$70,534,-

Of property, for tho past 1 wo years, $133,-

The Reason Why He Subscribed.
Col. Christy:—I see in the last issue of
the JFafcAwuni, that John O. Hicks, of Fort
Hembree, N. C., is considerably concerned
about the neutrality of tho Air-Line Eagle,
and he impeaches “ the gentleman” who
got him to subscribe, with intentional de
ception. Well, now, I do disclaim any in
tentional deception. I do not recollect
what I said to Mr. Hicks, from the fact
that it was a public day, and I was quite
bpsy, and did not have-time to talk much
to any one individual. But I made it
point to tell everybody that the Eagle was
independent.\n polities, but would take no
side, nor advocate the claims of any can
didate now before the people, for the Pre
sidency; and'to settle tho vexed. question,
I quote from the Eagle's pros]>ectn8, which
has been published in it ever since the first
issue of the paper, and has also been pub
lished in a great many other papers in the
State.
“ The Eagle will be untrammeled by party
ties ! and will have little to do with politics,
except as news. While the editor does not
wish to dictate to tho people how they
shall think, or for whom they shall vote,
he nevertheless will feel it his duty to keep
his readers informed of whatever may oc
cur, worthy ol'their consideration, during
tho present Presidential campaign.”
Tliis is and has been the Eagle's position,
from the first.- But I can toll tho reason
why Mr. Ilicks subscribed for the Eagle.—
Tho terms of the paper are “ $2.00 per an
num, invariably in advance. Ministers of
the Gospel and school teachers, will bo tar
nished the paper for $1.00
Now, the truth of tho business i3, that he
subscribed tor the paper, bccauso ho could
get it for one dollar, ho being a school teach
er; and I will say to Mr. Hicks, if ho is
dissatisfied with his bargain, if lie will write
to the editor that such is the ease, lie will
send his almighty Ocoee dollar back to biin,
and stop his paper.
If Mr. Hicks has any more to say about
this matter, I hope ho will do so through
the Eagle, and not bore tlio readers of an
other disinterested paper, with this foolish
controversy. AGENT.

The telegraph has already place. I in

account of the great struggle a
in which Garibaldi displayed such undaunt

Santa Maria, Tuesday, Oet. 2,1860.
Yesterday was fought and won by Gari
baldi the battle of the Volturno, the great

fought during his military career.
I explained to you in my former letter
how, since the approach of tho Piedmontese
forces from tho north, the relative positions
of the twoyinrties before Capua were ex
changed. ’As it wasbefort; in the interest
of Garibaldi to advance continually and
rapidly, so it was now to tenipcr.su until
the arrival of the Neapolitans, and then
shut them up in their self-cliosen position.
On the other hand, the Neapolitans were
obliged by every consideration to take the
offensive, and try to get out of the awk
ward position in which they wore, besides
having to do with two enemies at a cer
tain distance from each other. The eom-

As you know already, for the last few
days there was a considerable movement
observable on our right. Troops which
had passedtheVolturnoneur Araortishow
ed on tlio road to Maddaloni and towards
Limntola; large concentrations of troops
were observable on the Polygon—an open
camp for artillery practice behind tlio town
of Capua, on the other side of tho river;
but, as this had been going on for some
time without leading to any result, had
caused more than one false alarm and a
sending backwards and forwards of troops,
most people began to give up the idea of
any offensive intentions on the part of die
Neapolitans. As for Garibaldi, although
determined on the defensive, it would liavo
been too much against Ids nature to bo
there and do nothing; so, while keeping
on the defensive, he was making prepara-
rations to take tho offensive the first op
portune moment.
You will remember the heights of San - „

baldi advanced, revolver in hand, towards
St. Angelo, and arrived just in time to give
new courage to tlio defenders. The object
was to drive away the column .in the rear
of the hills to the left of St. Angelo; this
was easily done by throwing some skirm
ishers on tho heights above those occupied
by the intruders. There was, fortunately,
some artillery in front, which was turned
to good account, but, as usual, it was the

During tlio time the fight had been equal
ly hot at Santa Maria. Gen. Milvitz, who
o, passing to the left of tho plain of ' commanded there, was obliged to confine
a Maria di Capua, and reaching the his defence to the immediate vicinity ol the
Volturno about two miles to the northeast I town, holding the main road to Capua and
of Capua. It is all along a precipitous
mountain on both sides, and comes down
just as precipitously to the river, leaving
only u narrow place where the road from
Capua, skirting the mountain, runs towards
the Scuta di Cajazzo.
Well, Garibaldi had looked at that posi
tion on the 19th, and had looked at it al
most every'day since. It was just one of
those positions which ho likes—command
ing the country all round, close to 1 ho river,
which is rapid there but narrow, a good
many trees down in the plain, and plenty
of brushwood on the heights. Several bat
teries were ordered to sweep the road
which passes along tho opposite hank of
tlio river; a trench was dag not far from
the bank-of tho river to give good cover to
riflemen, and a number of barges were
brought.up from Naples to ho in readiness
in case an opportunity offered to cross.—
At the same time a considerable number
of troops were collected at that spot. Be

Southern Manufactures.
The manufacturers of tho South are so
careful to “hide their light under a bushel,”
that wo do not wonder their existence is
unknown fifty’ miles from home. They
ought to advertise and give notoriety to
their business, as Northern people do.
Now, wo will venture something that
comparatively few of our readers know
any thing of the two powder-mills refer
red to below, located in a neighboring Dis
trict of South Carolina. As every thing
now smells of “villainous salt-petre,” we
give the powder-mills such notoriety as
we can:
Athens, Ga. Nov. 5th, 1860.
Col. Christy—It was stated a few eve
nings ago, by a gentleman of this city, in
a political speech at the Town Hall, “ That
there was not a single powder mill in the
Southern States.” Allow me to state that
there are tico good powder mills in Pick
ens District, S. C. One of them is sitnated
at Issaquana Fails on Stump House Moun
tain, four miles north of the beautiful little
German village, Walhalla. This powder
mill is owned by J. "M. Qstendorff, Esq.,
and is in successful operation, and turns
out a large quantity of first rate powder
dailyi • . -
The second mill is situated three miles
east of Pickens C. H., on what is known
i the space between it and iht railway. Some
light earthworks which he had thrown up
lately’ were of good service. But tho ene
my brought up nejv and fresh troops,
l whicb.he kept in reserve in the Cainpe be
fore Capua. The shells and shot flew into
the houses of Santa Maria, and the inliabi-
■ tants left in masses. Dispatch after dis-
: patch was sent to Caserta, wiiero the
reserve was, to ask for reinforcements.
But the reinforcements were likewise-claim
ed on another side. Early in the morning
a column had shown itself towards Castel
Morono, but was easily driven hack, and
did uot renew’ its attack. More serious
was the advance again it Maddaloni, where
•i column of 4,009 or 5,000 men attacked
Mixio. It was a hard fight, for there were
not more than 2,000 to 2,500 men to op
pose on a long line where the lulls had to
oo kept on both sides. But the struggle
was soon decided, lfy noon the news came
that the enemy had not only been driv
en back from their position, hut had
likewise been followed np to the river. A
part of their forces were cut off, and threw
! themselves into the mountains between
Dipthcrla.
This new disease, which was so preva-
lentin tho Eastern and Northwestern States
last fall and winter, is, wo regret to learn,
now prevailing very fatally in Cherokee
county, N. C. The Hendersonville Pre
sage says:
“ Foiyf died in one family, and others of
the samp family were very low at tho last' l *‘° Brigade Dunn (lately arrived from [themselves into the m

sion Medici, and the body of Calabrese vol
unteers.
Tlioposition deserved the attention which
was bestowed on it, but it had one draw
back—it had its left flank and its lino of
communication with Santa Maria rather
exposed. A glance at the map will show
y T ou this. The relative positions of Santa
Maria, Capua, and the heights of San An
gelo are such that Capua falls just about
tho lino ot communication betwcon San-
pses
at the same time. One little girl was pfil
ing about the house as usual, (although
she had had a sore throat for several days)
—she lay down on the bed, and in a few
moments fell off of the bed a corpse. An
other of the same family, a little boy’, died
quite as suddenly while lying on a little
bed on the floor. Other deaths have occur
red, and several others are very low.”
We find in an exchange the following di

“ Diptueria and its Cure.—Simple and
Efficacious Remedy for the. Disease.—This
singular disease, which has thus far seem
ed to baffle the skill of our best phy’sician.s,
lias become so prevalent and has beeu so
generally fatal, that any suggestion in re
gard to its cure will hardly prove uninter
esting. Itscausesarenotknown, and there
fore all treatment has heretofore been mere
ly experimental, but its pathognomonic
symptoms are so diversified and dissimilar,
that in many’ instances tlio throat of the
patient closes, and he dies before bisdisease
as been discovered.
The diagnostic by which it is known from
other complaints of the throat, is the form
ation of a membrane which increases grad
ually’ until the patient is literally strangled
to death. It is sometimes accompanied by
nlceraiion, and extreme prostration of the
entire system, and at others by neither of
theso symptoms, y*ct in either case it is
equally’fatal. To arrest the formation of
this membrane would therefore seem equiv
alent to curing the disease, and this in most

This mill wasbuilt by Mr. Bessenfcldcr and
is perhaps one of the best mills in tho Unit

Messrs. Mitchell, Keith & Co., and is known
as the “ Pickens Powder Manufactory.”—
The powder made at this mill is of tho best
quality; in fact, it is superior to any North
ern powder. They arc making great quan
tities of it. I have been to both of these
mills, am well acquainted with the proprie
