Health or* the City. —As will be seen by the
bill oi mortality for the week, published in anoth
er column, the general health of the city was nev

A Georgian Drugged—Robbery Pre
vented.
The New York correspondent of the
Baltimore American, under date of'Septem
ber 2d, says :—At a late hour last evening,
Officer Watson, of the second precinct, dis
covered some suspicious looking fellows
huddled rather closely together, near the
Fulton Ferry landing. Quickly rattling his
club, he started for tin* group, when in a
twinkling they shot in divers directions and
were seen no more. A man was found
lying on the pavement in a perfectly stupid
>state, from the effects, as it was afterwards
discovered, of drugged liquor. He was ta- ;
ken to the station-house, and $ 1,600 in ;
rash and drafts and a valuable gold watch
found on his person. On recovering his i
consciousness, the stranger said that he j
was a merchant living in Georgia, and was
on a visit to New York to purchase goods
and attend the cable celebration. He fell
in with some jovial good fellows at his ho- i
tel, and had been drinking with them and
looking at the sights in Water street, lie I
was greatly surprised to learn that the jo- j
vial, gentlemanly characters who had been
his temporary comrades, were thieves and
cut throats. A natural diffidence prevented
his giving his name, as he was quite anx
ious not to get into the papers. He was
grateful at his rescue, particularly so at
finding his money sale.
Further from Utah.—in Salt Lake :
county at the late election for the Legisla
ture, the Gentiles received only 3d votes.
Col. Canby r of the 10th Infantry, with
two companies of the 2d regiment of dra
goons, arid two companies of the 6th regi
ment of infantry, are to garrison at Fort
Bridget'.
A number of officers had left Utah on j
leave of absence. ;
Nine hundred head of cattle were met at
the Big Sandy, of which number 0 had i
died on that. day.
Col. Williams’ command was met al
Scott’s bluff. The 7th infantry, of 1,000 |
men, under Col. Morrison, were met at
Platt’s Bridge. The returning volunteers
tinder Col. Bee, were passed at Fort Lara
amie.
ii
The Commerce of Cuba.
The Prensa, in an article on the com
merce of Cuba, says:
Some time since we published a state* I
ment showing the general commerce of the
United States. In this statement Spain
figured with a difference in favor of and
against the United States, according as j
products were sent to them or received from j
them. And this difference, amounting to
some millions of dollars, was not for the
products of the Peninsula—for these would
give a result directly contrary—hut for i
those which, from the island of Cuba,
(which appears a part of Spain,) are ex
ported to North America. Such a result is ,
the highest evidence of the fertility and
prosperity of our Autilla.
§3F~We regret to state, says the Jackson
(Miss.) Democrat, that the cotton crop was
never so unpromising in this section as
now. From personal observation and in
formation from the planters, we think we
can safely say that not more than half a
crop will be realized in the lower part of
this county, and the northern part of No\’
tibeo. One gentleman in the latter county
informed ns that he planted for sixty bales,
but now did not expect to make more than
twenty. The boll worm is making dreadful
ravages, particularly in the prairies, and we
believe no section is free from them.
ay We invite our readers to the perusal of DK.

popular use. The unparalelled success which ha 9

DIED,
On the ?th mst-.at their residence in Dougherty
County, Mrs. ELIZABETH S. RUTHER
FORD, wife of Samuel Rutherford, in the
fortieth year of her age.
Sad , indeed, is the dispensation which has re
moved one whose presence was so essential to
the happiness of her large family, and whose
joyous spirit and attiactive grace shed, throughout
an extended circle ofloving friends, a mild and
benignant glow. Amiable, gentle, benevolent, her
missiqn on earih was to dispense the sweet offices
of affection, and to illustrate in her daily walk
and conversation, all those womanly virtues with
which htrjaature was so richly endowed. Her
friends will long cherish the recollection of her
worth, while to that household, from which the
chief decoration has been so rudely torn, and
where naught but grief is now admitted, the past,
instinct with bright and pleasing memories, will
re-appest, and shed upon the gloom ol bereave
ment, a subdued and mellowed radiance.

| Valuable Plantation For
BY authority of a decree of the Probate Court
of Russeil Cos., I will sell for distribution on

1 the sale, at the Court House in the town of Craw

ship 14, range 20, embracing about 1280 acres, of
one of the best cotton and grain plantations in the
i State
On this tract of land are about 600 acres of open
fresh land well enclosed, and in a high state of
culiiuatiou, a good framed house with 4 rooms, a
good kitchen, smoke bouse, dairy, blacksmith
: Thop, a large new gin house, superior cotton screw,
houses tor the accommodation of 60 or 70 negroes,

FFEEDOM FROM FEVER AND AGUE
TRIUMPHANT SUCCESS!
THE
GRENADA ELIXIR,
OR
South American Antidote for Malarial
Is a sure Cure and Perfect Route lo Ague
and Fever, Chill and Fever, Dumb Ague,
and all Bilious Affections'.
IT has been thoroughly tested in thousands of
eases, some of years* standing, where Quinine
and all the most popular remedies of the day had
failed, but the Elixir has met with the most tri
umphant success ; never failed to cure the most
obstinate eases. The unanimous testimony of all
who have used or witnessed its operations, declare
it to be Ihe most extraordinary medicine ever dis
covered for the quirk and permanent cure of Fe j
ver and Ague, ft operates as a gentle Tonic and
stimulant, gradually but surely ; eradicates every
vestige of disease, and restores the system to health
and vigor. It imparts new vitality to the blood,
and will soon induce the glow of health to return
to the pale and swarthy complexion.
The advantage of this medicine therefore is, that
a cure must be radical and complete ; not simply
breaking the Chill, by producing a “new impres
sion” upon the nervous system, without reference
to the operations of the malarious poison, which
is allowed to remain unchanged and renew its at
tacks, immediately after the nervous system has
ceased to feel the artificial disease—induced by
Quinine and many other preparations generally
resorted to. The GRENADA ELIXIR acts di
rectly upon the Liver, Stomach, Kidneys, Pores
of the Skin, and produces a radical cure.
It contains no ingredient the least injurious to
the system, and can be given to an inlant, with
perfect safety. It is warranted to cure every case
when taken as directed.
All who need such a medicine, will do well to
try the Grenada Elixir. It is not only the best hut
the mud economical medicine ever introduced for
Fever and Ague and is a Southern Remedy.

HAVING purchased land in the West, 1 now
offer tor sale both my plantations, lying on
the North Covvikee Greek. The place on which
I now reside, known as the Barna Ivey Plantation
contains 2,475 acres, with a large proportion of
fresh and Hammock land. There are on the plan

On th s place, are two new gin houses, one of
which is propelled by water power, to which is
attached a grist mill, all in good order.
Lying broadside this place is my other planta

my lands to suit purchasers. To those acquainted
with these lauds I need not say more—to those at
a distance, I would say that they cannot be ex

This is a purely vegetable compound, prepared on
strictly scientific principles, after the manner of the
celebrated Holland Professor, Boerhavc, Because
of its great success in most of the European States,
its introduction into the United Stales was intended
more especially for those of our Ltherland scattered
here and thereover the face of this mighty country.
Meeting with great success among them, i now of
fer it to the American public, knowing thatiis truly
wonderful medicinal virtues must be acknowledged.
It is particularly recommended to those persons
whose: constitutions may have been impaired by the
continuous use of ardent spirits, or other lorms of
dissipation. Generally instantaneous in (fleet, it
finds its way directly to ihe seat of life, thrilling and
quickening every nerve, raising up the drooping
spirit, and, in fact, infusing new health and vigor in
the system.
NOTlCE,—Whoever expects to rind this a beve
rage will be disappointed ; butt the sick, weak,
aud low spirited, it will prove a grateful aromatic
cordial, possessed of singular remedial properties.
CAUTION!
The great popularity ol this delightful aroma lias
induced many imitations, which the public should
guard against purchasing Be not persuaded to buy
anything else until you have given Boerhave’a Hol
land Bitters a fair Dial. One bottle will convince
you how infinitely superior it is to all these imita
tions.
