Tbs 0*tomo 8»et»i or EatcasoNe—The caloric en
tine of Ericsson, which has been placed on board the
steamer arieseou, a! Willlamsburgb, N. Y,haa creeled
much Interest among mechanics, for Hie attempts nude
heretofore to propel machinery with hot air, Instead of
steam, bare proved utter failures. In 1827 two brothers,
named Sterling, In Glasgow, Invented,a hot air engine
nearly similar to Ericsson a. This engine communicated
motion to a piston by alternately beating a portion of air
on one side of the piston, and cooling Hon the other by
means of air-vessels, ono communicating above and
balow tbe piston. The difference In the Ericsson engine
to, that the boated air to saved, and applied over again,
which, It to alleged, will make It more economical. Oth
er Inventors have sought to apply hot-air as a motive
lower, but with no better success than the Sterlings. If
Sricsson baa discovered the means of doing ao, ho baa
conferred a benefit upon mankind no lore Important In

i Han Oeoam roa CnaiiT Church.—The opportunity
was afforded ns yesterday by Messrs. Zoobaum & Co,
to Inspect the draft and plans for a new first class Organ,
'to bo famished for Christ Church ln this dty,by Mr. H.
- Kraus r, or Philadelphia. We feel gratified at the event
. -aa a proof or an advanced musical taste In tho comma,
nlty.aud assn evldonce of liberality In Its exhibition.
.The Organ will be fidtobed by the 1st of Hey, and will
cost $3,500. This amount, lacking a little, hu already
been secured by subscriptions, through the active agency
or gentlemen connected with the choir. The choice or a
builder, Mr.KBAcrr.ln our opinion, could not have been
more Judiciously made.
, The case of the Organ to to be of a chaste and beautlfal
Grecian design, and to be painted In sine white with the
omamcutal parts tipped with gold—the pipes In front
being also gilt. The size to calculated to fill up the entire
organ recess In tbo choir, the entrance to which will be
from the body of the church. With regard to the inte
rior, it to needless to enter into a catalogue or diapasons,
eesquIaUras, bourdons, hollow flutes, fire, foe. It will
snffieo to give an Idea of the capabilities and resources of
the Instrument, to say, the main divisions consist in what
may be termed four separate organs, operated on by two
sets or manueto or keyboards, and one set of pedals, each
one independent of the others. Beginning at the foun
dation—the pedals operate on two or what to technically
called sixteen feet stops, tho pipes being twice the size of
the largest contained in the present Organ. These pipes
as well as those In the Great, Swell, and Plcolo Organs,
have their own sound-board and action.
.Next comes the Great Organ, containing twelve stops,
comprising an aggregate of about 700 pipes; then the
Swell Organ, containing ten stops and over 450 pipes;
and finally the Plcolo Organ, containing six stops and
over 850 pipes. By the addition of coupling stops, these
four portions can be ell oomblned, so that in placing the
finger upon one key, about 40 pipes can be made to sound
at’ once, whilst by the use of composition pedals, rapid
changes or combinations can be made, affording the ut
most scope to the skill and genius or the organist in the
'production or the various effects to be found between
the dulcet strains of the flute or clarionet and the combin
ed power of nearly fifteen hundred Instruments.
Mr. Krauts shows In his selection and adaptation of
stops, that be to' hbnieir a good organist, and knows
fully the requirements of a good Instrument. The ar
rangements for the new organ, we understand, have all
been made through Messrs. Zoobaum be. Co, Mr.
XMAcrrV agents ln 8ovannah.
Doctor* Wildman ard Ganaul’i Private Hos-
rrrAita—We again refer the reader to the advertisement
of Drs. Wildman and Ganahl, who have Just opened a
hew Private Boapltal In this dty. It to the intention or
these gentlemen to give both medical and surgical care
to those persons who, having means, are nevertheless
not ln a condition to be comfortable at their own homes
or boarding houses. Such an establishment as this has
long been a desideratum In Savannah, and we predict
far the enterprising gentlemen who have embarked in
theundertaking, undoubted success.
Hospitals for sick persons without families, and for sick
strangers, are as necessary as hotels for those who are
in health. The hotel to but an Indifferent home for the
•tek man, even though his family to with him. Indeed,
hospitals provided with experienced and careful nurses,
and tbo very best medical attendants—with all the appli
ances for affording comfort to the sick, a free ventilation
and the facilities for affording the most fitting diet—
where friends can be admitted at proper hours, and
the Impertinently curious excluded without difficulty,
are as necessary as hotels, to which the public are to
the habit of giving ao much of their attention. We
observe that toe members or some of toe New-York
Churches, who “have .the poor always with them,”
have even opened a boapltal for children.
It to a source of gratification, therefore, that Messrs.
Wildman fa Ganahl bare opened a hospital to our
dty. The enlarged experience of Dr. Wildman and the
good standing of Dr. Gakahl, are well calculated to In
spire the public with the neoeaaary confidence.
Bavarnah Club House.—We have already stated
thst the committee bad selected the plan submitted by
Ha. Bboll for the new; Club House. The ground on
Which the building will be erected, to the unoccupied
portion of the lot on which the Georgia Historical So
ciety's building now stands. That building will remain
untouched, and its light nnd ventilation unimpaired.
This will, be effected by means or an open quadrangle,
85 feel square, at the back of the present building. The
principal rooms for Club purpose* will front towards
Bryan street, and will, ln fact, form two wings to the
Library room, thus giving It a pyramidal eBcct, now
wanting in the present building.
The entrance to the Clab will be in the left wing, and
t'frsdous entrance hall will form the Loggia to a hand
some staircase 88 feet by 10, lighted and ventilated by
means of a Lantern. A piazza II feet wide forma tbe
communication between the two wings, which also gives
light and ventilation to tbe back building. All neces
sary arrangements are made for a refectory, which may
be in Immediate ;coaneetioh with tbe Clab House. Tbe
np-stelrs accommodation will consist of a large billiard
room 40 feet by 83, card rooms, reading room, fee., tbe
door* of which have direct communication with tbe
bollow stplrcase. By means of the lantern spoken or
above, the healed air will find a ready mode of escape,
which, In our opinion, will at all time! render tbo build
ing comparatively cool.
It to not an easy matter lo give tho reader a correct
Idea of the plan, ln tbe absence of diagrams. It maybe
added generally, however, that an inspection of Mr.
BnoLL'i drawings has satisfied ns that he has projected
the very best building which tbe ground and other cir
cumstances would admit, ln this as In all his other
plans'and designs, be shows himself an accomplished
There are grounds to and around your dty, that would
pay all the expenses of a magnificent public Flower Gar
den, In tbe Increase of value of the property around
them. Your Water Works, now projected, may add
vastly to their beauty; your Monument, about to be
erected to the Dobie Pole, would find a fitting place to the
centre of these grounds. Strangers visiting your dty,
would find relief from tbe tedium of a hotel; your chil
dren would early read the “Angels’ Alphabet,” and your
laborers on all your other works of Improvement would
learn and appreciate, that a “ thing of beauty fs a Joy
forever.” It may be objected to, that flowers are subject
to vandalism. Are Americans more debased than Ital
ians, Frenchmen, or Germans? and If so, are there not
laws to protect publlo aa well as private property? Cus
tom and habit would soon set an example, and all tbs
police required, would bo a watchful guardian of tbe
wants of the plants. An establishment of this kind would
foster a Horticultural Society, and both untied, would (
create a love for tbe,pure and beautiful. And surely,*
Messrs. Editors, yon will agree with me, that whatever
stimulates to associations with beauty, will advance the
happiness of man, and should be fostered and encour
aged by every good citizen. Respectfully,
CHAB. A. PEABODY.

Trmfrrarcr Movemkkt at the 8octh.—Tbe Sen
ate of tbe Florida Legislature hu passed a bill, leaving
It to the people to each county to the State to determine
for themselves whether they will grant licenses for the
sale of Intoxicating liquors within their Jurisdiction. We
observe that a similar movement to on foot In Alabama.
A Bute temperance convention, lately held in that 8tato,
drew up an act to be Introduced Into the next Legisla
ture for the purpose, u the title reads, of w enabling the
inhabitants of every county, dty, town, village and elec
tion precinct In the State of Alabama, to protect them
selves from the evils arising from the sale of intoxicating
liquors.”
It provides that whenever the inhabitants of any
of the political subdivisions of the 81ate wish to In
crease the price of a license, or to abolish the sale of li
quor, they may do so after obtaining the assent of a ma
jority of the qualified electors therein. Fifty voters In
any county, or ten to any dty, village or election pro
duct, may, by petition to tbejudge of probate In the
county, require the vote to be taken, In the customary
manner, after tho usual legal notices. Tbe effect of a
decision to tbe affirmative after thirty days from the pro
clamation of the result, will be to have the force ofalaw;
aid every breach of the ume wlU subjed the offender
to indictment, and on conviction to a fine of not less than
one hundred dollars, to which the court may add Impris
onment for not more than three months.
The County Solidtor to stimulated to the pandual dis
charge of his duty by a foe of $50 to every case or con
viction. Merchants or salesmen of say kind who give
away or lend Intoxicating drinks “at tbelr places of
business, or any pubUo place.” with intent to evade the
law, are sutyected to tbe same penalties as If they sold It

Da. Cartwriobt, a physician of note in New Orleans,
says there to nothing like tbe sugar boose cure for bron
chial, dyspeptic and consumptive complaints. He states
that a residence ln a sugar house, during tbe rolling
season, far surpasses any other known means of restoring
flesh, strength, and health, lost by chronic ailments of
tbe chest, throat, and stomach. The rolling season to
the harvest when the canes are cut, tbe Juice expressed
and converted Into sugar. In Louisiana it commences
about tbe middle of October, and generally ends at Christ
mas, but U to sometimes protracted Into January. Dr. C.
says:
“Last December, having a severe and distressing
cough, which for some weeks bad resisted the usual rem
edies, 1 went into a sugar bouse, drank a glass of hot
cane Juice, and stood over the kettles, called clarifiers,
for some hours, Inhaling the vapor analog therefrom.
The vapor was most agreeable and soothing to tbe lungs.
The fragrant saccharine aura seemed to penetrate into
tbe Inmost recesses of tbe obstructed lobules, opening
IU way into the intercellular passages and air cella, with
out exciting cough, but removing the obstructions, tbe
cause of tbe cough. There I Blood over the clarifiers, en
veloped for five hours in a dense cloud of vapor or an
agreeable temperature and sn aromatic odor; after
which 1 retired to rest and had a refreshing sleep. In
tbe morning tbe Inhalation of the vapor waa train re
sumed, when I returned home through a raw, cold
windy atmosphere, to mo ten miles to the city, almost
well, without experiencing any Inconvenience from the
exposure to the cold—tbe cough and disagreeable sen-

8ntr Building ir Louisiana.—The State or Louisiana
has recently passed a tow to encourage ship building In
thst 8tate, and a bonne to offered to every person who
shall cause to bo built within tbe State any vessel of a ton*
nage exceeding one hundred tons burthen, Including see’
going steamers, of five doltora a ton—and for every river
or lake steamer or four dollars a ton.
Finances or Pennsylvania*—We learn from the an
nual report of tho Auditor General of Pennsylvania that
the receipts Into tbe 8tete Treasury daring tho year end
ing on tbe 90th nit, amounted to $7,710^53, which to in
creased by previous balances on hand to $4^60,123. Of
this sum, $331,000 to unavailable. The expenditures
during the year amounted to $0,870,480, leaving on hand
$1,383,011.
ExrzNias op tub Government.—The estimates from
the Secretory of the Treasury, In a printed form, have
been laid before Congress. It will cost for the next year
about $10,000,000 to govern the new territory, and about
$85,000,000 the old. Then there to the Interest and prin
cipal of the public debt to be provided, so that tbe entire
expenses will exceed firty millions^ Tho legitimate ex
penses of carrying on the Government do not exceed
$35,000,000.
The total amount of appropriations for the year ending
June 30,1854, to estimated at $46,803,753, to which 1s to
be added $480,066 for several appropriations which will
be carried to the surplus fund. There trill also be re
quired for the service of tbe tost three quarters of the
fiscal year, ending June 30,1653, made by former acts of
Congress, tbe sum of $15^55^71.
Imfortant Decision.—Wm. H. Bison and wife have
for seme time past, been suing Colonel Webb, or the N.
Y. Courier, for an alleged libol contained in a police
report, copied from tbe watch house returns, stating thst
plaintiffs had been arrested, both drunk, and the woman
with a dead child In her arms. Tho case was tried in
the Superior Court. Tbs Jury on Thursday brought in a
verdict for defendant. This suit hu excited n great deal
of atteation on tbe part of newspaper publishers, for as
every paper la the city published the alleged libel, of
course all were equally amenable.
Phenomena at 8ka.—Captain Home, ofbarque J. IT.
Dyer, from Messinm, reports that—Nor. 14th, I at. 37 40,

of a cannon I It was about tbe sizo of a 33 pound ball,
and if it bad not been raining heavy at the time, it
would probably have set fire to the vessel—it split lore

The Loneliness or Old Abe.—The Philadelphia
papers describe the eulogy of the Hon. Horace Biknkt
upon Hon. John Serbeaxt, in the Federal Court Room
in Philadelphia, as eloquent and Impressive ln tbe ex
treme. When ho bad spoken for three quarters or an
hour, slowly snd with deep feeling, he turned to his
brethren at the bar, and said t “Let no man pray for
length of days, for the old man to left alone when he has
burled *11 the friends of his youth. It was my grateful
and painful duty three yean ago to pay my lost offering
of.regard to the memory of Chauncev. I now corns to
pay a like tribute to John Beeoeant. This to probably
tbe tost time that my voice will ever be heard by my
associates of the bar, and l now offer them my tost
friendly salutation.” He sat down, evidently mneft
moved. The room was silent.

A CHANCE TO MAKE MONEY I
H AVING, by our sole at auction, disposed of thst por
tion of our Goods which was the least desirable-
leaving the stock on band ln every respect unexception
able—we now propose to enier Into negotiations for the
entire sale or tho remalulng stock.
Tho senior partner or tho firm being established In the
manufacturing of Clothing In Now-York, and having In
his employ a very competent force, would stipulate to
purchase and manufacture for tho house here which
should succeed them In their business. Hla knowledge
or the wants of the trade In Ibis section would enable him
to be of essential service to a houae established In this
place; and wo have every reason to believe that a large
cosh trade could be done with such facilities, by selling
at moderate proflla. Our only object In relinquishing
tho business Is a deatre to concentrate our means. Fur
ther particulars will bo given on application.

character
all who value sterling literary mertt. For eighteen year*,
the Messenger has ondeavored to reflect raithfuliy the
Southern mind, while disdaining all narrow and sectional
vie^rs. and has been Mono amoug the mouthly periodi
cals of Amorica in defence of tho peculiar Institutions of
tbe Southern Stales. To this offleo It will still bo devoted,
and will be prompt to repel assaults upon tbe South, whe
ther they come under the specious garb of .fiction, as 1 in
“Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” or lu the direct form or anti-
slavery pamphlets. At this critical Juncture, while pur
enemies are employing literature as tbelr most potent
weapon of attack, the Southern people will tardy not
withhold their encouragement from a work whose aim
It shall be to strike blows in their defence.
