DESIRABLE FARM AND SUMMER
RESIDENCE FOR SALE.
the SUBSCRIBER offers
for sale his FARM, situate about 4J
. I'’7l^lll, miles from the city, on the Georgia -L.
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 Kailroad, one can avail himself of
the 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 heal.h 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 ot which will be sold low, if desired.
For particulars, apply to

ELECTROPATHIC INSTITUTE,
AUGUSTA, GEORGIA.
DR« HITT, recently of Virginia, (the founder
of the celebrated Institu e in Philadelphia) hav
ing taken the Bath Establishment, fitted up by Mr.
Barron, corner of Green and Jackson streets, and
attached important additions and 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
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 Ladies, for whoso
special and exclusive accommodation a separate
apartment has been fitted up, to which their atten
tion is respectfully solicited, wiih the assurance that
whatever lheir condition, a visit, to his Institute will
not bo regretted.
Tickets for the season may be had at a moderate
price, giving the 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.

plied, Pain cannot exist.
These Plasters possess the advantage of being put
up in air-tight boxes —hence they retain their full
virtues in all climates. We have just received the
following testimonials from G. C. Sellers, an eminent
lawyer in successful practice in Wilcox county, .ala.
He is a gentleman in high standing, and one whose
influence has great weight;
“Camden, Ala., Nov. 24, 1848.
“ Messrs. Scovil <f- Mead— Gentlemen; Having
been requested to state what has been the result of
my experience in the use of your “ Hebrew Plaster,”
I cheerfully comply by saying that I have found it to
be as heretofore recommended, an " invaluable medi
cine.” In different cases of ray family I have appli
ed the Plaster to Chronic Sores, Tumors, and Pains,
and it has never failed Io afford instant relief. 1 have
also used it with good effect upon my own person in
the cure of ulcers, with which I have been severely
afflicted. Respectfully, &c. C C. SELLERS.
It have been very beneficial in cases of Weakness,
such as Pain and Weakness in the Stomach, Weak
Limbs, Lameness, Affections of the Spine, Female
Weakness, &c. No female, subject to pain and
weakness in the back, or side, should be without it.
Married ladies, in delicate situations, find great relief
from constantly wearing this Plaster.
The application of the Plaster between the shoul
ders has been found a certain remedy for Colds,
Coughs, Phthisic, and Lung Affections in their prima
ry stages. It destroys inflamation by perspiration.
Purchasers are advised that a mean counterfeit of
this article is in existence.
Caution- — The subscribers are the only General

CHILD OF THE ANGEL WING.
BY MRS. R. S. NIOHOLB.
“ Oh sing me a song as I fall asleep,”
(Said a little one with a lustrous eye,)
“ Or tell me a tale of the flowers that peep
In the bright green woods that reach to the sky ;
That peep in the spring when the birdies sing,
And the heavens are blue as our Nelly’s eyes,
Or tell of the child with the angel wing
Who walks in the garden of Paradise !”
I sang him the song—l told him the tale,
And watched by his couch till we thought he slept, •
For his brow was white as the moonbeams pale
That stealthy and bright ’neath his pillow crept ;
Then my words grew few, and my voice sank low,
And I said, in thy dreams may the seraph sing,
But he whispered soft, as I rose to go—
“ Oh tell me of the child with the angel wing!”
Then I sang again—but he restless grew,
And tossed his young arms as he wildly spoke,
And a burning red to his forehead flew,
As the moon went down and the morning broke :
But he spoke no more of the spring’s bright flowers,
And he thought no more of his sister’s eyes,
One name alone, in his feverish hours,
Was breathed in a whisper that pierced the skies.
“My mother!” he said—and his eyes waxed dim,
For the sense, with their wavering lustre fled,
And he never knew that she knelt by.him
Whose sun went down at his dying bed I
He has gone where the seraphs sweetly sing—
His story was brief as the sunset dyes,
He walks with the child of the angel wing,
In the flowery gardens of Paradise !
Important Discoveries in Generating
Steam.
Mr. Victor Beaumont, Civil Engineer o 1
this city, in a recent communication to the Tri
bune, gives some important particulars in re
gard to the principle of the formation of steam,
recently put into practical operation in France.
He remarks :
“Everybody has remarked that when drops
of water fall upon the cover of a hot stove,
they aggregate themselves into rolling
for an instant like mercury in a glass, and a
moment after disappearing in steam. ' su
Mr. Boutigny, a French chocolate m*ker,
starting from this fact, unexplained by any theo
ry known at the time, some years ago made a
series of experiments upon what the 'earned
now call the Spheroidal or fourth state of water.
Two years since Mr. B. published, on this sub
ject, a book which is of the most attractive
kind, and he says at the close that he is in the
way of finding the principle of a practical ap
plication to the formation of steam.
On speaking with Mr. Boutigny on this sub
ject, you recognize a first-rate chemist, but
though he has a theoretical knowledge of me
chanics, he is not an engineer.
Happily, at this point of the discovery, a
civil engineer, Mr. Cestud de Beauregard en
tered the field, and, as will be seen by the fol
lowing, has reaped a rich harvest.
In the Rue du Faubourg St. Dennis, No.
162, at Paris. Mr. C. de B. has erected a eteam
engine of 500 horse power od his new plan.
In place of the common boiler with its tubes
and other complications, he employed a single
vessel with a fiat bottom, about one fiftieth as
large as an ordinary boiler of the same power.
It is inclosed in a brick furnace above a fire
grate of reduced dimensions. This vessel is
always empty of water. Connected with the
bottom are two herrnomelers to indicate its
temperature, and on the cover is a valve, which
you open when you wish to stop the engine in
an instant. No manometer or safety apparatus
is needed.
The work is so constructed as to keep the
bottom of the boilers at the temperature of
750° Fahrenheit, nnd the principle which
serves lor a basis is this:
When a small quantity of water is cast upon a
surface heited to 750° F. or more, it is reduced
to steam which is formed and remains at the
same temperature of 750°.
To use the engine one or two cubic in
ches of water are thrown into the hot vessel,
the water is all instantly reduced to steam,
heated to 750° and so expanded that it occupies
all the entire vessel, with the pipes and begins
to set the piston into motion. After that the
engine itself supplies the boiler with the requis
ite small quantity of water.
The steam leaves the cylinder at the temper
ature of 580° and passing through the water
reservoir of a coil us pipe, heats that water and
raises it to 202° before escaping into the at
mosphere, or before being reduced to water.
For the last three months Mr. Beauregard’s
works have been accessible to every body.—
The first engineers and men of science in Paris
have been there engaged during that period in
every kind ofexperiments ; the result of which
is perfectly satisfactory and leads to the follow
ing conclusion, with regard to the new inven- a
tion:
Ist. Economy of fuel of over fifty per cent.
The best boilers known require three pounds
of coal per hour for each horse power. The
newsystem only from one to one and a half.
2. Reduction in the weight of machinery
over fifty per cent.
S. Security from explosion. The safety ap
paratus used in it is simply to prevent the boil
er from being injured by the fire : none is ne
cessary to prevent explosions, the vessel being
always empty of water and steam, when the
engine rests.
Supposing all this to be true, as we hope it
will prove to be, the discovery must produce a
great change in all branches of mechanics with
a reduction of the cost of many articles of first
necessity. But the main result will surely be
increased speed in steam navigation. The re
duction of weight in the new boiler will give
us power double that of those now in use with
out changing the draft of the vessel ; and by
the reduction in the consumption of fuel the
same cargo of coal will be sufficient to sail the
same number of days even with engines of
double the present power. But as the trip
will be performed in less number of days a
diminution in the quantity of coal taken on
board will still be possible.”— Farmer 8f Me
