entire satifaction. I will alter any old Gin (not too much
worn) to do better work than it ever did before.

Poetry and Parodies.
Af> a general thing, we <io not affect parodies—
they posaeaa a “ fatal facility ” in bridging over
the “ one «tep ” that leads from the “ sublime to
the ridiculousand are very apt to strip the ro
mance from some of our moet cherished literary
favorites, with a ruthless hand. The following,
however, ia j-.uch a capital thing, in its way, that
we cannot refrain from laying it before our readers
—giving them the beautiful poem of Poe, also, in

ANNABEL LEE.
HT EDGAR A. POL.
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kiastfom by the sea.
That* maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name t f Annabel Lee;
And this maid :n she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
/ was a child and she was a child,
In this kingd om by the sea:
But we loved with a love teat was more than love—
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, hilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee ;
So that hsr high-born k nsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre >
In this kingdom by the sea.
The agela, not half so happy in heaven,
W'ent envying her and me—
Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Ceiling and killing my Annabel Lee.
.
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Os the beautiful Annabel Lee :
For the moon never beams, without bringing me dream*
Os the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stai s never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Os the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, 1 lie down by the side
Os my darling—m j darling—my life and my bride
In thesrpu chre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
DEBORAH LEE.
BY £UZZY GOZZT.
’Tis a dojsen or boos years ago,
Bomewhere in the West co ntree,
That a nfcegitl lived, as the Hoosiers know,
By the name of Deborah Lee;
(Her sister was loved by Edgar Poe,
But Deborah by me.)
Now /w -s green and she was g een,
As a summer squash might be;
But we loved as warmly as other folks*
I and my Deborah Lee—
With a love that the lasses of Hooßledom
Coveted her and me.
But somehow it happened long ago,
In the agueish West countree,
That a chill March morning gave the shake#
To my beaut.ful Deborah Lee;
And the grim Steam Doctor (curse him !) came,
And bore her away from me;
The Doctor and Death—old partners they—
In the agueish West countree.
The angels wanted her up in heaven,
(But they never asked for me ! )
And that Is the reason, I rather guess,
In the agueish West countree,
That the cold March wind and the Doctor and Death
Took off my Deborah Lee,
My beautiful Deborah Lee,
From the warm snnshine and the opening flowers,
And hid her away from me.
Our love was as stroeg a* a six horse team,
Or the love of folks older than we,
And possibly wiser than we;
But Deal**, with the aid of the Doctor and steam*
Was rather too many forme—
Bo he closed up the peepers, and stopped the breath
Os my sweetheart, Deborah Lee,
And her form lies cold in the prairie mould,
Silent and cold—ah, me!
The foot of the hunter shall press her grave,
And the prairie’s sweet wild flowers
In their odorous I eauty around it wave,
Through all tne summer honrs,
The still, bright summer heurs;
And birds shall sing in the tutted grass,
And the nectar laden bee,
With his dreamy hum, on bis gau&e wings pass
ed wakes no more to me!
Ah. never more to me !
Ah, never more to me!
Though the wild birds sing and the wild flowers spring
tihe wakes no more to me.
Yet, oft, in the hush of the dim still night,
A vision of beauty I see,
Gliding soft to my bedside, a phantom of light—
Dear, beautiful Deborah Lee,
My bride that was to be.
And I wake to mourn that the Doctor and Death
And the cold March wind should stop the breath
Os my darling Deborah Lee,
Adorable Deborah Lee;
That the angels Bhould want her up in heaven
Before they wanted me /

New Thade jn .Slaves.—lt was some time since
intimated that the Cuban slave dealers had em
barked in a new branch of the trade, viz: the in
troduction of tiie Yucatan Indians into the Island
of Cuba. The Havana correspondent of tho New
York Herald gives full particulars of the manner
of their capture and introduction, Btating that one
hundred and eighty of these Indians nave been
kidnapped and carried to Havana. Extensive pre
parations had been made to transfer the Indians
to Cuba, when the matter was discovered by the
British authorities at Honduras, who caused, the
arroat ofthe Spanish agent at that place. On the
person ot this agent were found the termsof agree
ment with tho Havana dealer,showing that |26 was
to be paid forevery male adult Indian, and women
and children in proportion.

has made a peremptory demand upon Gen. Caaedo
for the immediate liberation and restoration of tho
kidnapped Indians. The Havana dealer is having
preparedsham contracts, purporting to have engag

Original Anecdote o* Daniel Webster.—That
pleasant sheet, the Boston Transcript, is answer
able for permitting u eorroepondent to tell ths
following ns an original oneodoto of the great Dau
iel Webster:
In the Summer of 1828, when a mere lad, I waa
at“Bvift’s” inSaudwhich. My then schoobl mas
ter was there also, and from him I had the tale.
John Trout was the well known sobriquet of the
fisherman who attended amateur anglers on their
excursions. John was not remarkable for hie ve
raeity, but quite otherwise, when his success with
the hoot and line was the “ subject of his Btory.”
One day he was “out” with Mr. Webster. Both
were standing in the Brook, patient waiters for a
bite, when Mr. W. told John how he caught a
very large trout, on a former occasion. ‘‘Tour
honor,” said John, “ that was very well for a gen
tleman. But once, when I was standing down by
yonder bush l took a fish weighing,’’ I forgot
how much, but of course many ounces more than
the great lawyer’s big fish. “Ah! John, John,”
exclaimed Mr. Webster, “Yon are an amphibeous
animal. You lie in the water, and you lie out of
if.”
The Vires or Snakes —Dr. Jeter, of Palmyra,
Mo., advertises ior rattlesnakes, copper-heads, or
moccasin snakes. The bead of the serpent should
be nnmashed. it appears that Dro. Taylor and Je
ter are performing a course of experiments on the
virus ot serpents. Dr. Jeter was appointed by the
lost Medical Convention, held at 61. Louis, the
chairman oi a committee whose duty it became to
draw up a paper on the subject of snake bitee, and
therefore these experiments are institnted.
Northern Morals.—One Night in Boston.—A
Mr. G jorge Hall, was stabbed and died; two new
bouses were set ou fire and destroyed, valued at
♦24,000: and three firemen injured, all on Satur
day’night in Boston.—.V. Y. Mirror.
Discount the death of the man, and SIO,OOO of
the loss, and the facta will be approtohed. But
the above is hardly “a circumstance” compared
with the almost nightly events of Gotham.—Bos
ton Bee.
Who said it was? New York not only goes
ahead of Boston in population, enterprise, and
wealth, but in fires, burglaries, murders, <fec., <fec.
Iu fact, wc claim that New York is the great cen
tre and metropolis of crime, as well as of every
thing else. The strongest light casts the darkest
shadows. New York has more to boast of, and
more to be ashamed of, than any other city in the
Union.—A'. Y. Mirror.
Tallltrand.—Mr. Hamilton, in his Fourth of
July speech at Tarry town, related a striking anec
dote, which he heard from Talleyrand’s own lips:
“When Talleyrand, having been compelled to
leave France, was subsequently, also, obliged to
quit England, because he was suspected of being a
spy,he went to Portsmouth to take passage. While
at tne hotel there, he was intoimed that there was
an American gentleman in the bouse, and he im
mediately sought an interview with him, to obtain
some particu’ars of the country to which be pro
posed emigrating. At the close of the interview,
Talleyrand told the stranger that he would fee!
pleasure in bearing to his friends in America any
letter or message he had to send. The answer was,
'1 am the only man in the world who has no friends
iu Amelias.’ On subsequent inquiry, he ascer
tained that the stranger was no other than Bene
dict Arnold."
For the last week we have had an abundance ot

A good story is told of a Connecticut pastor. His

MISCELLANY.
Diseoif rie* Ib Medtetne.
We fa«ve turned over the pages of the “Medi
cal Examiner” for July, and have tooud many
very interesting cases, gome of which we may
hereafter more particularly examine. For the pre
sent, we will extract the following:
Gift at Jraumatic Tetanus (Loek-jaie) cared by
the Inhtlai.cn of OUoref.rm —By I>r- Tb. V.
Dusch, of Manhtia. A pauent, aged 26,. ran a
nail in the great toe of the left foot, on April 17th.
On May Bd, the masseter and other masticatory
muscles were contracted and the mouth doted.
On the sth, the symptoms were more severe.—
On the 6th, there were tetanic spasms, returning
every five minutes, combined with other peculiar
ities. Morphine, bleeding, tobacco, cupping, dec.,
were tried without avail. Pulse 112 ; skin warm.
Chloroform inhalations were then directed. The
tetanic symptoms disappeared during the naroo
tism and the patient obtained some rest. Upon
the return of the spasms, the chloroform inhala
tions were repeated, during which the pulse sink
frum 110 to 60. The sutlior now eudeayored to
keep the patient in a state of constant excitement,
and administer, between this date and the 26th of
May, 64><f ounces of chloroform.
21st. The inhalations discontinued, cold water
was applied to the shaven head, and a quarter of a
grain of acetate of morphine was given every
two honrs. On the4tb of Jnne, the patient was
well.
Dr. Bargigely, of Lesbos, relates tho case of a
countryman, on whom tetanic symptoms came on,
after tfie coarticulation of the third finger. The
patient was cured by the same treatment.
A similar case is related in Langenbeck: s Clinic.
Chloroform, from being taken into the blood, di
rect from the lunje, is preferable to all other nar
cotizing remedies, which most be absorbed from
the stomach. . , .
The effect of the chloroform inhalations must
be oontiuuous, the patient remaining days, and
even weeks, more or less under its influence, until
a point of saturation is attained, characterized by
the rapid production of the extreme nawotizing
effects ; the patient during the iDtorvals being in
a state of obstinate excitement; hot head, face red,
eyes glistening, &c. Atmospheric air was mixed
with the chloroform in Dr. Dusch’s case.
It will bo perceived, from the perusal of the
preceding article, that chloroform is destined to
impression has been, that uta great advantages
were applicable to the severe cases of surgery, and
seldom it ever, had been used in other branches
of the medical .profession. But here we see it
comes in as n successful remedy in the nufnerout
cases of spasmodic diseases Reccntiy it has been
found very beneficial in that troublesome disease,
Delirium Tremens. Indeed, we hardly know to
what a vast reach this noble remedy will yet ex
tend in the hands of our skilful doctors. It is
truly gratifying to witness tho rapid advances of
the medical profession in its curative applications,
by means ot new remedies. Occasionally a pa
tieut, greatly reduced before an operation, may die
of ohloroform. So, too, the lightning that purifies
our atmosphere, sometimes kills. Yet we have no
doubt that cumphine has killed more in one
month than ohloroform ever since it has boeu
used in surgical operations. But as a remedy in
the hands of the physician, it is less dangerous if
not entirely sate.— Philadelphia Inquirer.
A Russian Bath.
Stephens, in hi* “ Incidents of Travel,” gives
the following description of a bath he enjoyed im
mediately on his arrival at Moscow:
“Riding out to the suburbs, the drosky boy
stopped at a large wooden building, pouring forth
streams i rom every chink and crevice. At the en
trance stood several half naked men, one of whom
led me to an apartment to undress, and then con
ducted mo to anothor, in one end of which were a
furnace and apparatus for generating steam. I
was then familliar with tho Turkish bath, but the
worst I had known was like the breath of the gen
tle south wind compared with the heat of this
apartment.
Ttio operator stood me in the middle of the
floor, opeued tho upper door of the stove, and
dashed into it a bucketful of water, which sent
forth volumes of steam like a thick fog in every
part of the room, and then laid me dowu on a
platform about three feet high, and rubbed my
noddy with a mop dipped in soap aud hot water ;
then he raised me up aud deluged me with hot
water, pouring several tubfuls on my head: then
lie laid me down again, and scrubbed me with
soap and water from my head to my heel* long
enough, if the thing were possible, to make a
blackauiore white; then gave me another sousing
with hot water, aud another scrubbing with pure
water, and then conducted me up a flight of steps
to a high platform, stretched me out ou a bench
within a lew loel of the ceiling and commeueed
whipping me with twigs of birch with the leaves
on them, dipped in hot water.
It was as hot as an oven where he laid me down
on the bench: the vapor, which almost suffocated
me below, ascended to the ceiling, and finding no
avenue of escape, gathered around my devoted
body, fairly scalding and blistering mo; and when
I removed my hands from my face, I felt as if I
had carried away my whole profile. I tried to
hold out to the end, but I was burning, scorching
aud consuming. In agony I cried out to my tor
mentor to let me up, but ho did not understand
mo, or was loth to let mo go, aud kept thrashing
mo with the bunch ot twigs until, perfectly des
perate, I sprang off the bench, tumbled him over,
and descended to the floor. Snow, snow—a re
gion of eternal snow seemed paradise: but my
tnrmeuter had not done with me; and, as I was
hurrying to the door, he dashed over me a tub of
cold water. I was so bot that it seemed to liss as
it touched me. He came at me with anothor, and
at that moment I oopld imagiue, what had always
seemed a traveler’s story the high satisfaction and
perfect safety with which the Russian, in mid
winter rushes from his hot bath and rolls himself
in tho snow. The grim features of uiy tormentor
relaxed as he bsw the change come over me. I
withdrew to my dressing room, dozed an hour on
the settee, and went out a new man. In half an
hour I (Stood in the pataUe of the stars, within the

Calamities in Persia. —Letters from ErzoroufH
dated from Teheran to May 19th, and from Tabreez
to the 29th, supply the following details of the late
calamitous occurrences in that country, a brio!
statement of which has already been given :
On the 8d of May, the towns of Shiraz and Cush
an were levelled to the ground by a violent earth
quake, destroying 15,000 souls in the former, and
B,o<>q in the latter place, and entirely drying up
the lino rivefkZsiandervod, upon which the town
ot Ispahan, ina great measure, depends for its sup
f)ly of water. The drying up of the river was fol
owcd by an extraordinary flight of locußt, which,
in a few hours, laid waste the luxuriant crops of
wheat and barley, and destroying the blossoms of
the fruit trees. At Khorassau, a pestilence broke
out in the month of Rtjab (April,) and tjpuß fever
of the most deadly nature was raging throughout
Astrabad, Mnzsaderan, aud the Turcoman desert;
whilst at Teberan, ou the 18th of May, where
cholera morbus was carrying off uo less than 150
souls per diem, an inundation bad swept away IS
dwelling houses, a public batb, the ice depot, and
several men, women, and children. Fortunately
for the city (for otherwise the consequences to
life and property would have been much more
serious,) the water from the fosse or ditch which
surrounds it burst out on the plain, washing away
the most luxuriant crops of corn and forests of
fruit trees, with a number ot horses and otber cat
tle. In the midst of all these calamities, whilst the
Shah and his coart have fled to Imams, the Prime
Minister and bis relations carry out their diaboli
cal system of oppression of tbe poor, turning s
deaf ear to the petitions and complaints of the
people unless accompanied by a fee, and such is
the extent of this corrupt practice, that, in sums of
20 and 40 shillings, the Minister is reported to
have amassed tbe princely fortune of half a million
of tomans, which are said to have been secretly re
mitted to Kuseia, whither he will, before long, no
doubt repair, to enjoy this ill gotten wealth. The
sooner the better, for his evil doings are a blot on
the reign of Keeserud-deen, who has lately taken
into favor an individual of a totally opposite char
acter, the Adjatant Bacbee, a personage of great
merit and extraordinary talent, well worthy in
every respeetto fill the vacancy, when it occurs,
with honor to the Sovereign and benefit to the
country. By a late royal decree, he has been
created a Knight of the distinguished Order of
the Portrait, and appointed to the important office
of Generalissimo of the Shah’s army. The rela
tions between the Shah and the representative of
Great Britain are, through the intrigues of Knssia,
upon anything but a cordial footing.—aV. Y Obser
ver.
A (Ji ick Hi: castle The following anecdote of
Gov. Morris, is related by a correspondent of the
New York Times:
He had a respect for Bishop Moore, as a man no
ted for the purity of his character, but not less for
the retiring modesty of his disposition, and the
general fcvor in which he was held. As the story
ranA dinner was given by some one of Gov
enor Morris’s friendß, when he was abont departing
for Europe. Bishop Moore and his wife were of
the party. Among other things that passed in
conversation, Mr. Morris observed that he had
made his will in prospect of going abroad, and
turning to Bishop Moore, said to him:
“My reverend friend, I have bequeathed to you
mv whole stock of impudence."
Bishop Moore replied:
“ Sir, you are not only very kind, bnt very gen
erous ; you have left me, by far, the largest part of
your estate.’’
Mrs. Moore immediately added:
My dear, you have come into possession of your
inheritance very soon 1"
Carkolltos Bamßoan.—A oorps of Engineers,
headed bv Mr. Foote, arrived in our town Friday
or Saturday last, snd commenced operations on
Monday morning, in the survey of the route for
the contemplated and mnch talked of Kailroad
from Griffin, Ga., to Decatur, Ala. They took up
their hue of march from this plsce, in the direc
tion of Carrollton and Decatur, and will probably
be engaged on this end of the route, some 10 or 12
weeks, when they will return and complete the
survey from Newuan to Griffin. We nave no
doubt the road will be built, and before two years
we hope to be able to chronicle the arrival of the
“ iron horse” at Carrollton, Newnan, Griffin and
Savannah, from the fertile regions of the Vi esl.
So mote it be.—Amman Banner.
Tbs Crops. —Within the last few days much
rain haa fallen. Oar crope are, at present, doing
well. In visiting Polk county a week ago, we re
marked that we bad seldom seen better crops.
By a private letter from Tennessee, we are in
formed that one of onr acquaintances expeets to
make twelve barrels of corn to the sere. The
writer adds, that Georgia will never starve while
the Tennessee river runs. —Rome boutKerntr.
Am Ox that gives Milk.—Mr. James Thom, of
Clinton, has an ox that gives milk freely. He has
a bag with soar teats, each one of which yields milk
like that of the cow. The bagis divided into lour
sections, but unlike the cow's it has no adder.—
Each quarter of the bag has a cavity which supplies
its teat, independent of the others. When milked
oat, it is readily supplied again, like that of the
cow. —Pcmyteeeptie Americn.

From the Aspinwall Courier we learu that the
citizens of Aspinwall had a spirited and becoming
celebration of the glorious Fourth. There was be
sides three salutes, a procession, reading of the
Declaration of Independence, an oration, a dinner,
ball and supper.
An attempt bad beeu made to burn the town.
The iaceudiariee set fire to a new building, in
course of erection on B. street, In front of the
Panama Railroad, bat the flame* were fortunately
meet ered before spreading any distance. A reward
of |SOO has been offered by Col. Totten for the dc
teotion of the incendiaries.
The Courier congratulates the citizens of Aspin
wall and travelers by that route upon the healtnf ul
state of affairs of the Aspinwall Hospital, an insti
tution reoently organized and supported by the re
sidents of the place, liberally assisted by the Bail
road and U. 8. Mail steamship Companies, and the
British Boyal Mail Steamship Company. A fund
amounting to between f 7,000 and SB,OOO has been
already subscribed.
The Star advocates the establishment of a colo
nization society for opening the resources of Chiri
qui, situated north of Panama. It says:
So little has boon known about this province
hitherto, that it is only within the past two years
that any definite understanding has been arrived
at between the Government of New Granada and
Costa Rica, as to the correct boundary lme which
separates the two Republic).
It also calls attention to tl)e islands on the coast,
and says;
At present, Panama cannot boaat of a solitary
item to offer as a homeward cargo to vessels visit
ing this port; not that the country does not or
cannot yield anything for export, but because that
branch of trade has been entirely neglected since
the California emigration commenced, the latter
having, since its commencement, almost exclu
sively monopolized the attention of onr merchants,
and created such an immense rise in the value of
labor as to render it impossible to use Panama as a
depot for the collection of such cargoes. More
over, the delay, difficulty and expeuso of bringing
small lots of cargo up this bay, is of itself a suffi
oient drawback to prevent parties from making
tbo attempt.
Another important branch of business might be
very profitably carried ou by the establishment of
a station on the Island ot Coiba. We allude to
the whale fishery. Wo are aware that an unsuc
cessful attempt was made, a couple of years ago,
by some of the merchants of Panama to establish
this trade, but it tailed, solely tbrongh mismanage,
mout, tbe vassal having been sunt to Sonth Cali
fornia, iustoad of remaining in the vicipity ofpa
nam- Boy, so that must hot be 'taken as a
criterion.
Between Coiba and tbe main land, a distance of
about thirty-five miles, we have counted frequent
ly droves of twenty or thirty whales at a time.—
They do not appear to be of a very large size, but
we can safely say that many of them were from
forty to fifty feet in length, and we have been in
sufficiently close proximity to form a tolerably ac
curate idea of their size.
We are led iuto these remarks from the daily
outcry we hear that Panama is declining, and that
there is at present no business to support her; but
we think such fears are, in a measure, idle visions.
W c acknowledge that tbe trade, sadden and short
lived, cieated by the first rush of emigrants to
California, has fallen off very materially, but this
was to be expected. W e eennot, however, admit
that the merchants of Panama are left without re
sources to which to turn their talents and Oapital,
even in this country.

The splendid clipper ship Telegraph, George
W. Pousland, master, having left our port on the
22d ult. for the United States, returned on the
4th inst., making a large quantity of water; hav
ing, when in lat. 45 deg. 86 min. S., lon. 78 deg.
80 min. W., ou May 28th, at 2 A. M., struck some
heavy body while going at the rate of ten miles
per hour. What she struck neither tbe captain
nor officers can tell, but it had snob an effect as to
stop her headway almost entirely. Since her ar
rival her bottom has been examined under water
by two carpenters, (divers, with marine armor,)
who have managed to stop the leak effectually.—
This fine ship will be enabled to prooeed on her
voyage in a tew days.
The Queen of the Pacific, Capt Reed, put in
with ice melting badly, (settling four feet,) in tbe
lower hold, which made her very crank and una
ble to carry sail; is now taking ballast to trim and
stiffen tbe ship; was obliged to clear the spar
deck of spare spars and strike upper spars, in or
der to enable her to reach Valparaiso.
In addition to the above she encountered severe
weather, stove her head and carried away her iron
works and topmast. She is making temporary
repairs, and will be ready for sea in a few days.
Capl. Reed thinks that the cause of the ice melt
ing is probably that the ship leaked at her ports,
upon encountering heavy weather, in the early
part of the passage, but which was stopped a3 he
reached the trades.

after remaining there a day, and performing each

camp that evening much under the influence of
liquor, and a large quantity of it with them in
jfhey threatened the life of Col.C. by drawing
their pistols and guns upon him and his party, and
encamped within fifty yards of the Colonel’s camp,
threatening defiance to all who made opposition to
their movements, and the military in particular.
Lieut. Peirce returned to the neighborhood of

into this post, and here confined until yesterday,
when they were sent to the Marshal 0 f Arkansas,
with a small detachment of men under the com

The papers confirm the report of the death of
ex-Gov. Paine, of Vermont, already announoed by
us. His remains arrived there yesterday, we be
lieve, in charge of Mr. W. Greely, of Boston, on
their way to their final resting place in Northfield,
Vt. The Galveston News says of him;
Gov. Paine was one of the compauv whioh came
here early in the month of May to make an explo
ration of the State, with a view to the building of
the Pacifio Railroad and other railroad onterpiisos.
The company consisted of ex-Gov, Paine and Gen.
Clark of Vermont, W. Greely of Boaton, and
Gen. Orville Clark of New York. From this place
they went to Houston, Austin and port Graham,
and at the latter place separated into three divis
ions and traversed other sections o' the State.
While Gov. Paine was laut going from Fort
Graham, he was taken sick with the dysentery at
Waco, on the 11th of June, and died at that place
ou tbe 6th of July. He was fifty-three years of
age on the day previous to his death. For more
than a year beforo coming into this State, he bad
beeu in feeble health, and it was thought by many
that he was imprudent to come here du ring the
summer season, but in the judgement of others,
in which he oononrrcd, it was thought that such u
journey might be beneficial to him. Gov. Paine,
we learn, was the prominent candidate for Con
gress in the place of Mr. Upharn, and, had he liv
ed, would, doubtless have been elected to that
office by the next legislature of Vermont.

blesome in California. Capt S. met several par
ties on bis ronte. Their object seems to be the
robbery of parties bound for California. He met
thiee or four partise bound for California with

cattle. Santa Fe, Capt S. informs ns, is not im
proving. A small force of about 200 men was sta
tioned at the Messila valley. When the intelli
gence reaches that quarter that GeD. Garland has
been ordered to take possession of that disputed
territory, it is thought some excitement will ensue
If nothing worse.
Capt. 8. says that El Paso, the Mexican town ou
tha west sido of the Rio Grande, is fast improving.
The town is some two or three miles wide and five
or six in length, and contains about ten thousand
inhabitants. This rich valley abounds in fruits of
almost all kinds, such as apples, pears, peaohos,
figs, grapes, <Ssc. He thinks it one of the best
wheat countries he ever saw, producing from thir
ty to forty bushels per aore. Nearly all the culti
vated country is irrigated, and ts powers of pro
duction appear to increase the longer it is in culti

with an American population. Corn ana wheat
and other crops are excellent this year, and pro
visions are abundant.
Bating Prnlt. ,
Fresh apples, peaches, and other fruits, have for
some time been in our markets. These are the
edibles which nature has provided for tbe season,
and which, if moderately indulged in, are us
healthful as they are pafitable. An unfounded
prejudice exists in tbe minds of many persons
agaiubt eating fruit in Summer. But the fuel that
in France and otber European countries, fruit is
almost the sole article of food at this season, aud
that instead of any deleterious consequences re
sulting, the highest state of health is maintained
on suoh a regimen, ought to bo sufficient to ex
ulode »o senseless a notion. We have the testi
mony of numerous American physicians, t at the
eating of fruitat breaktast, as is done in Franoe, is
very conducive to health at this season. Indeed,
fruit appears to be peculiarly fitted for the diges -
tive organs, daring the hot summer mouths, when
other edibles that may be enjoyed with impunity
in winter, frequently bring on disousc. Os course,
it is not every person to whom this recommenda
tion will apply- Many artioles of food agree, to
uae a popular phrase, with some individuals, vet
disagree with others. No one but a quack or fool
will maintain that every person finds tbe same edi
bles easy of digestion or the reverse. Ham is
poisonous to many individuals, yet others eat it
with impunity. Fish agrees with most people,
but to tbs few it is as indigestible as lead.
In eating fruit, however, care should be taken
to have that which is ripe. Many persons maintain
that fruit is unhealthy, when, if the truth was
known, it would be found that unripe fruit was tbe
cause of their sickness. The quantity of green
fruit sold in oar markets is immense. Not less
Seat is the quantity of decaying frnit exposed
ere, especially of whortleberries *nd black
berries, which many persons purchase because
offered a cent or two cheaper per quart than per
fectJy ripe frnit of the same description. In all
such kinds es fruits the seeds of disease exist—
Whoever eats green or decaying fruit poisons
himself or herself so far forth, and if no id effects
result, it is in consequence of the iron constitu
tion, not of tbe prudence of the transgressor.—
Children are the snflerera to an unimsgined ex
tent, from eating unripe fruits. Without capacity
to distinguish right from wrong in this matter, they
yield to tbe temptation, so that the only safe rnle
Uto keep all fruit out of their way. By adopting
this rule they will get none except wbat their pa
rents know to be good. Servants frequently de
stroy, unwittingly, the lives of children entrusted
to their care, by buying them green fruit, when
better can be had, in order to keep them quiet.—
Our parting sdvice is, not to be afraid of ripe fruit
either lor yourself or family. But then yon must
be sure that the fruit is ripe : not over ripe, much
the leas grsen.— Phil*. Ledger.
Speeches on the Gallows.— Two murderers,
Dodge sndSchoen, were executed at 6t. Louis on

with great calmness and resolution, and alter the

Gentlemen: I hope you will take warning by
my fate. God oless you all and be with you; I
thank yon heartily, and I thank the Jailor and his
family for kind attentions tons, and I hope to meet
yon all in a happier and better world. lam pre
pared to meet my fate, God bless you all, and 1
hope to meet you again. God bleas you and be
with yon. Good bye. Amen.”
Alter Dodge had concluded, Schoen rose and
said:
“ Fellow-citizens: lam willing to suffer for my
eondnet and to meet my fate. I thank you all—l
thank my American and my German citizens and
friends for what they have done for me, and I hope
the Lord may pay them. May God bless yon all.
Amen.”
The rope was then placed around their necks,
and in a few moments both were launched into
eternity. Both appeared to die easy—a con vnlaive
movement only was perceptible in Schoen; Dodge

dom, Justioe ttud Moderation over the suggestions
of impulse, of passion and of prejudice, which
are prouder State monuments than structures of
murblo or of brass. The Platform wiiich they
adopted was the culm, deliberate, intelligent ex
pression of their will, and was designed to be, not
a temporary expedient, but a land-mark to guide
Southern sentiment and Southern policy, as long
as slavery sliall bo an element of strife between
the North and the South. It was received by con
servative men throughout the State as their rally
ing point, upon whichthoy entrenched themselves,
proffering to Southern Bights men the olivo-brauch
ol peace, and throwing down to Free-soilers oud
Disuniohista tho gauntlet of detianoo. ft gave to
Georgia a prouder pro eminence than she had at
tained by the enterprise and tho energy which
hud mado hor the Empire State of the South, and
gave to tho South a position bold and impregna
ble, upou which, if it stands, it may, resisting the
encroachments of the North, preserve the Union
of the States uud the rights of the States, It is
their decision, carefully, laboriously formod, and
solomnly pronounced, iu the Report and Resolu
tions of the Convention of 1850, which the people
aro now called upon to reverse iu electing llersonol
V. Johnson Governor of tho State; tho nominee
of a party which never acquiesced in that deci
sion, and whioh, though it bus appropriated the
namo and livery of the Democracy, betrays itself
in every act, as the Resistance, Secession uud Dis
union party of 1850.
Re-organized Democracy is a clioat and a swin
dle, by which tho Secession Democracy would
conciliate Union Democrats, and with thoiraid ob
tain a popular majority, which they never have
done and nover oaii do alone. The history nf tho
divisions of the Democrat io party of Georgia is
still fresh in the recoilectious of oar readere. ftnd
if there is any fool mors apparent or bettor estab
lished than any other by it, it is that the Union
Qemooraoy has tjeou Systematically oppressed uud
ostracised, and that every act of the Secession De
mooracy has been dictated seemingly by a desire
to crush and to htnnblo thorn. In tho Haiti more
Convention, tho Union delegates were permitted
to occupy seats upon the floor, and to witness the
vote of tho State repeatedly cast against the men
of their choice. In tho Presidential ounvuss, alter
they had organized a Union Electoral Ticket, de
claring that the Southern Rights Democracy could
not be t noted in their protended aequietjconoe in
the Compromise Resolutions of the Baltimore
Platform, they were forced to withdraw that ticket,
to lose their privilege of voting, or submit to the
indignity of voting for the Electors of a .party
which they had declared unworthy of confidence —
uud saw tho Democratic name and the Democratic
organization seized upon by men who had ro
uounc. d the one and dononncod tho other as cor
rupt, effete and unsound. Concession nfterconccs
sion, ample, humiliating and degrading, they ltavo
made to the florae and proscriptive Secession
Democracy, but they have not been regarded, and
they have been compelled to yield to the terms of
capitulation dictated by their oppressors, and to
see those terms constantly and persevoringly
violated.
Is it struuge that the Union Democracy should
rovolt? Is it not stranger that any Union Demo
crats oan be so blind as to trust for one moment
their professions of devotion to Democratic prin
ciples, or attach any importauoe to the fino words
and the honied phrases with which they proclaim
Democratic Harmony and Democratic Re-organi
zation.
But there Is no necessity to indulge in reminis
cences of the past, or to refor to the events of 1851
to establish the identity of the Johnson patty of
1863 with the Disunion party of 1850, or to prove
that the Union Democracy is as cHeotually and as
completely degraded from their proper position in
the party, as they were when policy suggested in
1851 a re-organiaation of the party. The fact is
apparent, patent and palpable, and wo need seek
no farther for its confirmation than in the nomina
tions of the noi-disant Democracy, which are now
befor#tho people of Georgia.
Herschell V. Johnson has been nominated for
Governor—a man who denounced the Union Con
vention, and ita action, and declared that ho had
a “thorough oonteinpt for the whole pack’’—bittor
and coarse language, whioh not only convoys dis
approval of the Georg ; n Plutform, but reflects upon
the character, the intelligence, and tho honesty of
every man who aided to build it, and of every vo
ter of Goorgia, who in 1850, and 1851 sustained it.
In the Ist District, James L. Seward has been
nominated for Congress- n man who was whilom
a Whig and who has given no evidenoe of conver
sion to Democracy—no tests of his orthodoxy as a
Re-organized Democrat, except his opposition to
the Compromise, and his want of devotion to tho
Union , •.
In the and Distriot, A. H. Colquitt, by inheri
tance, and by will, a violent and ultra Southern
Rights rm n, has been nominated in opposition to
a Union Democrat, of more character and greater
ability, and whose only sin, is, that he was in the
division of 1850, a Union Democrat.
In the Brd District, David J. Bailey Ims been
nominated, one of the immortal minority ot twenty
three in tho Georgia convention —who declared he
never would sanction tho action of that Conven
tion—who in t ongress two months before the
meeting of the Baltimore Convention, refused to
vote for a resolution, simply declaring acquiescence
in tho Compromise, and now, by a process which
tho Telegraph cannot explain, is found professing
devotion to the Baltimore Platform, and the In
augural of President Pioroo.
In tho 4th District, W. B. W. Dent has been
Dominated, an open and avowed D'sunionist in
1850, over Charles Murphy, a Union Democrat who
was inveigled into the nominating Convention, to
be slaughtered and to be oast out of it under cir
cumstances which added insult and Indignity to
tho injury.
In thesth Distriot, E. W. Chastain, who wasa
Union Democrat, but who early united with the
Secession Democracy, has been nominated. lie
wot a Union Democrat, and that fact will defeut
hiyn. He will be defeated by the Independent
Secession candidate. Dr. Lewis, and by the votes
of the men who enacted the farce of his nomina
tion.
Thus, in all the nominations of the Party, there
is only one Union Democrat—a soft shell Union
man—E. W. Chastain, whose nomination was not
honn fide, and who will be defeated, as he des.erves
to be.
For the Senatorship, Charles J. McDonald, the
opponent of the Union nominee in 1850, for Gov
ernor and the President of the Nashyile Conven
tion, is the candidate of the Party, His electioi is
urged as the vindication of the policy of the South
ern Rights party, of the Nashville Convention,
and of the Disunion movement of 1850. Johnson
would elect Cobb, but he cannot do it—Seces
sionists will sacrifice him as a crowning holocaust
upon the hecatomb of victims they have slaughter
ed. No reorganized Democrat, oan bt elected to
represent Bibb county in the General Assembly,
who avows himself in favor of Howell Cobb, or
any other Union Democrat, for the Senate. Wil
the Telegraph deny this ?
Here then are the facts which wo would urge
upon the attention of the Union Democracy of
Georgia, to cod vince any of that sound and purest
portion of tho Democracy, who have any lingering
doubt upon the subject, that it ia not recognized
in the “Reorganized Democracy,” and to oouvince
all that the election of Johnson, by a party of snch
material, would be a reversal of ihedeoieion which
Georgia made in Convention in 1850, upon the
subject ot the Compromise,
Democratic Harmony and Democratic Re-union,
are fine wordu and sound pretty, but will avail the
Seoesaiouists nothing against this array ot facts.

figures in the following extract from the Federal

The Illinois Lawagsiust the circulation of Shin

Tins low imposes a heavy flue on ail persons who
shall pay out or reoeive the notes of Banks not U
gtl'y organised; it also prohibits the circulation
ut all notes under five dollars, except the secured
notes of i he ItliuoU Free Bunks.
A supplement to the General Banking Law of
Wisconsin, also prohibits the circulation of notes
of Batiks not legally organised. On trial the de
fendant is bound to show that the foreign money
which ha* been passed is “it legal ieeueqf a legally
organised Rank.
We refer to this subject, particularly at this time
that our readers may be on tbeirguard against At
lanta Bank Notes.
Wo ohurgo that the Atlanta Bank of Georgia has
no legal existence.
In proof of this position we adduoo the follow
ing fasts:
Ist. The 14th soction of its charter is as fol
lows :
Sec. 14th. That the Atlanta Bank shall bo per
mitted and is hereby authorized to issue bills or
no cs of credit, payuble to bearer on demand,
signed by tho President and countersigned by the
Cashier—bnt the total amount of debts whioh the
said corporation shall at any time owe, whether by
bond, bill, note, or other contraots, shall not ex
cood throe times the amount of the Capital Stook
actually paid in, and in oase of excess it shall be
the duty of tho President and Cashier to notify
the Govornor in writing of sttoh excess, upon
the receipt of which** shall be the duty of the Go
vernor to issue hbproclamation, declaring the Char

excess, and calling a majority of the Stockholders
who shall havo power and authority to adopt Buch
measures as may be deemed prudent and etteotual
ill bringing the affairs of said corporation to a
speedy closo ; but said Bank shall issue no bills or
notes or checks, until One Hundred Thousand Dol
lars of the Capital Stock have been actually paid
in, in specie.
2d, i lie notes of the Bank were issued and nut
into olroulation by George Smith, tho owner and
a director oftho Bunk, and by his agents at Peo

Wo beg to lay before onr readers tho following

Atlanta, July 19th, 1853.
J. Thompson, Esq.
a * * * * * you oan prove by U. L.

to this place, that ten dollars oftho Atlanta Bunk
bills wore son! to him for oollcatiou. You can
prove by Dr. Joseph Thompson the oxaettime of
the arrival of the ollicors ortho Bunk at this place,
which ho informs me. has been about a month
prior to this date. Enclosed yon fiud a statement
of the aondiliou ot the Atlanta Bunk whioh was
inudo about the time the oflioera arrived. [This
statement purports to havo been made on tho 9th
of June, and was sworn to on the 2d July] If

And now, wo further oharge—That Smith, the

This fiel is a palpable violation oftho charter of
the Bank—an inexcusable infringement on the
laws—and an insult to tho sovereign State of Geor
gia,
Wo call upon tho Governor of Georgia to see
thut tho proper procei dings are instituted, to ox
pungo this blot on her institutions.
Wo do respectfully lay Ibe above charges before
tho Grand Jury of DtKalb County, Georgia, and
wo beg to nunie as witnesses by whom these

If our charges are proven, Smith at loast, and
perhaps others oi the directors ol tho Atlanta Bank
miiHt fuco tho authority of the State, the laws of
which they have so grossly violated.
Wo oharge further, that tho Atlanta notes now
in circulation at the West, are the identical notes
which were signed und cut at the office of Straehnn
& Scott, in this city, in April last. They never
cume from the Ailuntu Bank—they never oame
from Georgia—they never were in Georgia—thoy
are therefore nothing more nor leea than a baa

Every porsori receiving or passing them, iB liable
to bo prosecuted, and every Bank, Insurance Com

pay out these notes, forfeitits chartered rights.

MY FADED FLOWERS.
nr NATTIR GRIFFITH.
My failed flowers! my faded flowers I I look
Upon ye in thin c tint, startling hour,
Ai.il thoughts like f dries bright rise from the still
And silent caves of memory.
I muse
Upon the dear bnt unforgotten time
When In their beauty fresh they came to me,
The sweet and dewy messengers of lore.
Oh, very wtlilly did I kiss them then,
And pressed them to my bossom, for 1 doomed
They were the token of a holy lave .
That death alept; could quell; -but a chill wind
Passed coldly o’er their frail and lovely buds,
And oh 1 they perished in their beauty. Thus
A breath of cola suspicion, a cold blast
Os doubt and dark distrust passed o’er his soul,
And fa ted are his spirit blossoms now.
No more the rose of coafldence may spring
Ant] poisonous | loots spring In the gardenmow
Os his once pure and unsuspecting soul;
Dark serpents and all deauly noxious vines
Gather and cluster round the fount of love,
Anti every bloom of sweet affection dies
And withers in a atmosphere so foul.
Bait ful and lurid light, are glimmering ’mid
The chaDel gloom of his shut, silent heart.
The temple of his love is given over
To riti b unha lowed a d to orgies dark.
The Bend hath laid his tacrellgious head
Upon the chalice late so bountiful,
That belt) the pure, the bright, the sacred drops,
Thepreciouß spirit of his lore. Alas!
Tile hous. hultl gods, the guardians of his breastll
Prond, ho'y trust have oruelly been tom
From their high p ace«, and the spirit dread
Os daik so,pt ion, with his legion fierce
Os strange and hi ter doubts, rales there aiooe.
Oh, blasted be the heart that thus can fl'ighl
A young and trusting soul that fondly flung
Its untold wealth of woman’s love on him,
The tyrant and the spoiler.
These dead flowers
Are emblems of his lost and wither, j love.
I cannot longer I ok upon them. At, t
They shake my stern and stole pride, and Wake
The love, the wild and burning love
That I have deeply, deeply sworn to quell.

Wearing tub “iNtxPKtteißLEH."—We taka
the following singular case from the New York
Journal of Commerce, of Saturday last:
Courts— Friday—Common Pleas. —Before Judge
Daly.—William H. Alexander vs. Margart Alexan
der.—Action for divorce, on the ground of cruel
troalmcnt. Tho plaintiff alleges that the defen
dant, at the,time of his marrying her, was a widow,
that after their inurriugo ho discovered that ahe
was addicted to intemperance, and that while un
der llio influence of liquor, and at times when no
other persons were present, she would assault and
nl treut him, and has frequently threatened to take
his life, saying that no person would know who
did it—that she is a large and powerful woman,
while he is in feeble health, eto. He is afraid to
livo with her, and uska for a divorce, forever,
from bed and board.
The case was referred. It was shown by wit
nesses that the defendant had been in the habit
of intoxication, and at suoh times was occasional
ly very violent, even to appearing near!' crazy.—
She has been hoard to make threats against her
husband—on one occasion ahe said she had been
a widow and meant to be a widow again—at an
other lime s' « was seen by a female going into her
house, having a razor in her hand, and was asked
what »he intended to uo with It—she said Alexan
der should know, slio meant to cut his throat some
time when ho wan asleep, and who wan to know
who did it I She abused the plaintiff, principally
because he would not give her more money.
Sho would go round among the neighbors and en
deavor to get them to drink. Have frequently
socn her worse of liquor. She took the temper
unco pledge in Dooember last, and have not seen
, her intoxicated since.
The referee reported that the oharge of cruel
treatment had been made out, and that the plain
tiff was entitled to a divorce, forever, from bed
and board. The Court, after advisement, does not
consider it a case entitled to u divorce, and made
an order, on the meritß accordingly, denying a de
cree.
Reproof. —Reprove mildly and sweetly, in tho
oatraest manner, in the gentlest terms—not in «
haughty or Imperious way, nor haetlly or fiercely,
nor with sour looks, or in bitter language, for these
ways do beget all the evil, and binder the best ef
fects of reproof. They do certainly inflame and
disturb the person reproved; they breed wrath,
disdain and hatred against the reprover—but do
not so well enlighten the man to see his orror, or
uffect him with kindly sense of miscarriage, or
dispose him to correct his fault. Suoh reproofs
look rather like the wounds and persecutions of
enmity than as remedies ministered by a friendly
hand: they harden men so much, they scorn to
mend on such occasion. If reproof doth not sa
vor of humanity it signifieth nothing; it must lie
like a bitter pill wrapped in gold, and tempered
with sugar, otherwise it will not go down, or work
effectually.— Harrow'* Srrmont.
Mount Vernon. —We learn that Mr. Lossing,

occupied at Mount Vernon in taking a landscape

with agricultural subjects. Mr. L. is employed in
this duty by the United States Agricultural Society,
with a .view to use his drawings in the designing
of an ornamental diploma of membership. The
idea is an excellent one, and we are satisfied that

IT THOMAS BBS BRADLEY.
Within this narrow chu ch-yard I did roam
From whore the village Hfhta appal my gaae»
To kneel and weep beside this new made grave,
To bow mj head in agony, and clasp
My so emn pul-es o’er my br ther’s dost,
And bid them beat sad requ em for hlllots.
With weary footstep hither I did oome
T> note the mantling irv twme its wreath
Around my father’s mouldering tomb, to hear
. The lone wind sing Its hollow dirge, and 'lit
Unto the m"on despair’s wan face. To hold
Communion with the dead I love, ah ne
And undisturbed to le-tn my drooping head
Against this sepulchre and cnunt my grief*,
I wandered here. And I did think to »ee
The emblem-phantom of my woes stort up
From hi« fit crouching place behlr d this tomb,
And lay his skeleton hand upon uy breast.
And palsy me with one sole look. But whence
Hsth he removed his visage lank ? For him
Isuot this rank grass most Oongenial lair
To coll his uncouth length at ease snd wait
To hear his vietim sighing as he comis?
Yet Io! how stillness broods, and, awed to peace,
I torn my gn*e unto the midnight tkles.

And trembling like an angel’s heart, when God

From wild and bitter thoughts to holy rest
Is wooed and won by thy &ereoi*y.
Thou ptutest in the firm ment to call
To me, and at by voice the swelling waves,
That bear my eplnt’s bark to woe't dark gulf,
Are still and stormless ae a mountain lake;
And the rent B<*Us are glad and h-lst their shreds,
Their soiled and sorry shreds, te feel the bieeie
That blows from the celestial isles.
Bright one,
Thou dost unloose from aemi thy golden hair,
And wavest it a signal or thy love.
From thy pearl arms the bracelet’* shining banu*
Thou dost unclasp, and swtng'st them in.tha skies,
A token of thy sympathy. Bow can
I see thy gentle smiles r« jofoe the heavens,
And not rebuke the demon of unrest,
Who howls withlo tho cavern of my soul?
At thy soft touch upon my palUd brow.
The droits of grief cling motionless no more,
But melt their coldness and are gone, and lot
The funeral crape, that muffled all the’beat*

Speeds on her hippy throbs within my veins.

A Western I’onnsylvanlacompany haveset up a
olaira to the whole of the Western Reserve of Ohio,
under a grant from Connection, alleged to have
been made after the year 176'J, when Charles 11.
granted to that colony a patent for the Reserve.
In 1795, it will be remembered, she sold the Re
serve to another company, relinquishing all olaim
to juriadiotion over the territory to tho U. States
in 1800. The Pennsylvania parties applied to the
General Land Offioe to make to them patents for
all the Reserve I The offleor replied, as the Wash
ington Star learns from parties interested in the
“speculation,” that the Government, nover having
had a claim to or proprietorship over that territory,
they cannot entertain the application; and that the
State of Conneotieut is the party to whom the
Pennsylvania company must look for redress, if
they really have rights involved In the case.
The Illinois Journal says that a new plan of ac
commodating laborers on rail road improvements
Ib practiced on tho Chiosgo and Mississippi rail
road. The entire working force on this road is
one hundred persons, who live in oars fitted up for
the purpose of boarding the men, and are pushed
along as tho rails are laid—thus securing the ad
vantage of having tho men always near their work.
This locomotive boarding house or village com
prises fifteen large covered oars, with all tho nee
essary conveniences for cooking, eating and sleep
ing. They carry tho oows along—they graze
alongside, and aro put in their stalls when the lo
comotive village changes ground.

The usual process was had before the U. 8. Com
missions) , and the ease taken. Into the U. S. Distriot
Court on a writ of habeas oorpus. Judge Kane,
after bearing, gave hia opinion that tho words of
the law—“ persons held to labor hi one State under
the laws thereof”—clearly inolnded apprentices,
and that to give a different construction to them
would hq to discharge every apprentioe In Penn
sylvania that choose to cress the Delaware, and
every one elsewhere that repaired to that Stale,
and refused to return to hla duty." Tho appren
tioe was remanded to the custody of the Marshal,
and the case returned to the U. S. Commissioner
for final adjudication.
