DESIRABLE FARM AND SUMMER
RESIDENCE FOR SALE.
MTHE SUBSCRIBER offers
for sale his FARM, situate about 4J
miles from the city, on the Georgia
Rail Road, containing about 105 acres of Land, about
40 of which is cleared.
This is a desirable place, being well improved, with
every necessary out-building, an excellent well of
water in the yard, and several springs near. Being
directly on the Railroad, one can avail himself of
th*b convenience of the Belair Train, which runs du
ring the Summer; coming into town about breakfast
time, and returning at sundown—so that any one
living there can reach town in fifteen minutes, and
not be troubled with a horse.
On Sundays the same train comes in to Church,
and returns to dinner. For health and fine atmos
phere this place cannot be surpassed, having lived
there the past two years, without a single case of
sickness in my family.
Attached is a good garden and orchard, with a
variety of fruits. There is on the premises, corn,
fodder, wagons, milch cows and necessary (aiming
utensils. All of which will be sold low, if desired.
For particulars, apply to

MY NATIVE LAND—GOOD NIGHT.
BY LORD BYRON.
“ Adieu, adieu ! my native shore,'
Fades o’er the waters blue ;
The night-winds sigh, the breakers roar
And shrieks the wild sea-mew.
Yon sun that sets upon the sea
We follow in his flight;
Farewell awhile to him and thee,
My native land—good night!
A few short hours and he will rise
To give the morrow birth ;
And I shall hail the main and snies,
But not my mother earth.
Deserted is my own good hall,
My hearth is desolate;
Wild weeds are gathering on the wall ;
My dog howls at the gate.
Come hither, hither, my little page !
Wby dost thou week and wail ?
Or dost thou dread the billow’s rage,
Or tremble at the gale ?
But dash the tear-drop from thine eye :
Our ship is swift and strong :
Our fleetest falcon scarce can fly
More merrily along.”
“ Let winds be shrill, let waves roll high,
I fear not wave or wind :
Yet marvel not, Sir Childe, that I
Am sorrowful in mind ;
For I have from my father gone,
A mother whom I love,
And have no friend save these alone,
But thee—and One above.
My father blessed me fervently,
Yet did not much complain ;
But sorely will my mother sigh
Till I come back again.”
“ Enough, enough, my little lad !
Such tears become thine eye ;
If I thy guileless bosom had,
Mine own would not be dry.
Come hither, hither, my staunch yoetnan,
Why dost thou look so pale 7
Or dost thou dread the French foeman ?
Or shiver at the gale 7”
“ Deem’st thou I tremble for my life?
Sir Childe I’m not so weak ;
But thinking on an absent wife
Will blanch a faithful cheek.
My spouse and boys dwell near thy hall,
Along thy bordering lake,
And when they on their father call,
What answer shall she make 7”
“ Enough, enough, my yeoman good,
Thy grief let none gainsay ;
But 1, who am of lighter mood,
Will laugh to flee away.
For pleasures past 1 do not grieve,
Nor perils gathering near;
My greatest grief is, that I leave
No thing that claims a tear.
And now I’m in the werld alone,
Upon the wide, wide sea;
But why should I for others groan,
When none will sigh for me 7
With thee, njy bark, I’ll swiftly go
Athwart the foaming brine •
Nor care what land thou bear’s! me to,
So not again to mine.
Welcome, welcome, ye dark blue waves 1
And when you fail my sight,
Welcome, ye deserts, and ye caves 1
My native land —good night 1”
Burns and Scalds.
The following article on Burns, by Dr,
Reese, from the Journal of Medical Sciences,
is of great practical importance and will no
doubt be the means of doing much good.—
Dr. Reese has long been superintending
Physician of the Bellevue Hospital, and is very
eminent in bis profession.
Burns. —Among the most numerous cases
brought into the surgical wards of charity hos
pitals, every where, may be reckoned the in
juries received by burns and scalds, which,
when extensive, are too often fatal. In the
treatment of these injuries we have had great
experience and uniform success, when patients
were brought in soon after the injury. No
fatal case of recent burn has occurred in the
hospital, although several have been extensive
and severe. The universal treatment of all
such cases is to cover the parts with wheaten
flour thrown over the wounds by a dredging
box, which, if thoroughly done so as to ex
clude the air, and prevent its temperature
from reaching the suffering tissues, will afford
instant relief from pain, and allay all that ner
vous irritation which is the chief source of
immediate danger in all cases of extensive
burns. We have had opportunity to test this
practice in terrible burns occasioned by ex
plosions of gunpowder, in scalds from the
bursting of steam-boilers, in examples of per
sons while drunk falling into the fire, and
others in which the clothes were burnt oiff the
body by the combustion of spirit gas, &c.—
In all these cases, and in some of them scarce
ly any portion of the body had escaped—and
notwithstanding, in a few of them, the integu
ments were literally baked so that extensive and
deep seated-suppuration and sloughing were
inevitable, and had afterward to be endured
the external application of the flour was in the
first instance our only remedy, and this was
continued for one or more days, while the
acute effects ofthe injury demanded it. The
superficial portions of the burns or scald would
often heal under this application alone; and
the solutions of continuity, more or less deep,
which remained open and discharging, were
then dressed with limewater and oil, by means
of a feather, to which kreosote was added if
the granulations were slow, or the sloughs
tardy in becoming loose. Under this dressing
the most formidable burns have been healed ;
and even when the face has been involved,
there has been scarcely any considerable de
formity. In one of our patients, the face be
ing horribly burned by an accidental explosion
of gunpowder, the grains of powder having
been imbedded in the skin, very great appre
hensions were indulged that the discoloration
thus produced would permanently disfigure
and deform the countenance. But, after the
persistent application of the flour for three
successive days, and until the tumefaction of
the face and head had subsided, it was found
that, with a few applications of the lime-water
dressing, the cicatrization was complete, and
even the discoloration was removed.
If this simple remedy were resorted to in
the severe scalds sometimes occurring from
explosions of steamboat boilers, &c., there can
be little doubt that tbe fatality of such burns
would be very rare; while the popular and
mischievous methods of applying raw cotton,
oil, molasses, salt, alcohol, spirits of turpen
tine, sugar of lead water, ice, &c , to exten
sive and deep burns, are. all of them, injuries,
and often destructive to life.— Scientific Ameri

The board of Health in New Orleans cau
tion the citizens against all imprudences and
cholera nostrums, but state that notwithstand
ing the great influx of immigrants, there is no
epidemic in the city. The interments for last
week give 149 deaths by cholera. This, how
ever, does not seem to increase the number of

weekly deaths, which, in New Orleans with
her 150,000 inhabitants, exceed 200 weekly,
at this season of the year, without the aid of
cholera.
Cold Weather. —Last Wednesday was
one of the most unpleasant days we have ex
perienced since winter set in. It was rough,
raw, rainy, with a high, gusty and extremely
cold wind from the northeast. Pedestrians
were glad to betake themselves ‘o their cloaks,
while in-door folks hugged their fires closely.
Red cheeks were plentiful, but blue noses more
so. Night came, the rain ceased, the clouds
were dispersed, before midnight the wind lul
led, and of course a heavy frost was expected
—expected did we say ? Yes, just as the re
turn of day was expected. And no one was
disappointed, unless it might be some fair lady
who. by extreme care had saved a few choice
plants or flowers that she had resigned to the
destroyer in despair. Yesterday morning the
sun rose clear and brilliant, the thermometer
standing at 32, and ice formed a quarter of an
inch thick. Os course the destruction of ve
getaliou has been general and very great. The
moist ground of the gardens was covered with
a crust of frozen earth. Some idea may be
formed further north of the injury sustained,
when we say that the season had so far ad
vanced as to give us strawberries from our gar
dens. Figs were as large as grapes, and the
trees in full leaf. The more tender vegetables,
beans, squashes, okra, melons, cucumbers,
&c., have been totally destroyed. While the
more hardy ones, radishes, beets, peas, onions,
lettuce, <fcc., have escaped with but little inju- #
ry. The orange trees must have been seri
ously injured. Those that have blossomed,
will undoubtedly yield no fruit this year.—Mo

Macon, (Ga.) March 30.— The Weather.—
On Wednesday night last, we had the heaviest
fall of snow experienced here for several
years past, which was visible in various parts
of the city until nine o’clock the next morning.
On Thursday night there was a severe frost,
which we learn has killed the cotton and cut
down the corn which was up in many places,
in some of the counties below this. Last
night it was cloudy and threatens rain to-day.
Snow and Flowers.— Laurensville , March
29. —On Wednesday night, after a cold rain,
sleet and snow fell to the depth of about an
inch. And although it was a beautiful sight, in
the light ofthe morning sun to see the emerald
green wheat fields partially covered as with a
white mantle, and the pink peach blossoms and
yellow jasmines and coral honeysuckles con
trasted charmingly with the dazzling snow
flakes with which they were sprinkled, yet, we
could not but regret the pleasure enjoyed,
when we thought that to pay for it we would
be obliged to dispense with that greatest of
summer luxuries—peaches.— Herald.
The last of the Cotton Crop.-— The last boat
load of cotton in this section of country* was
forwarded to Apalachicola this week —about
600 bales. In all our warehouses, there is not
now a dozen bales of cotton remaining, and
we know of none held by planters. The river
has been good throughout the season, and this
with the remunerating prices paid for cotton,
has been the means of forwarding the crop
earlier than usual.-- -Albany (Ga.) Patriot,
29th ult.
Hostile Indians.— Mr. Salegson, wbo arriv
ed at the Brazos on the 20th inst., from Roma,
brought a report that about 500 Indians, of
various tribes, had assembled near the latter
place. They appeared quite friendly, but me -
fears ofthe inhabitants were much excited by
the proximity of so great a number of savages
Between Roma and Laredo the Indians
showed evident signs of hostility. They had
murdered several whites, besides destroying
and carrying off a large amount of property. —

BGECTROPATHIC INSTITUTE,
AUGUSTA, GEORGIA.
DR. HITT, recently of Virginia, (the founder
of the celebrated Institute i.. Philadelphia) hav
ing taken the Bath Establishment, fitted up by Mr.
Barron, corner of Green and Jackson streets, and
attached important additions n--t improvements, is
prepared to give the bath, hot, tepid, cold, shower, va
por, steam, medicated, mineral or magnetic, for the
preservation or restoration of health. The success
which has attended the application of these, even in -w
the few past weeks, has furnished the Proprietor with
a number of living, healthy evidences in favor of his
mode of restoring and preserving health ; all of which
were considered hopeless cases —which being per
sonally exhibited cannot fail to inspire hope in the
most desperate cases.
In dispensing the potent agent of the Magnetic
Bath, Dr. H. has not omitted the more important de
partment of the community, the Eadies, for whose
special and exclusive accommodation a separate
apartment has been fitted up, to which their atten
tion is respectfully solicited, with the assurance that
whatever their condition, a visit to his Institute will
not be regretted.
Tickets for the season may be had at a moderate
price, giving tbe holder the choice of any Bath, with
the special direction of the Proprietor.
P. S. Electric Apparatus and fixtures will be fitted
up to suit all cases, and sold at moderate prices.
