Dratb at Dr. J.T. Pniereon. The many friends of Dr. Paterson in oor city wore startled on Sabbath morning by the announcement, road in two or three of tho Churches, of liis burial sorvioos from the Cemetery Chapel on the same ufter*- noon, hie remains having been conveyed from Savannah, whore he died suddenly tbe previoua day. Tho deceased was, for several years, a resident of Augusta, and removed, at the close of the war, to Savannah, where ho engaged in the lumber trado. While among us, ho was always distinguished for his integrity in business, his unsullied private character, the scrupulous honesty which characterised his every act, and the unos tonfatiousness of those deeds of private charily and benevolence by which lie illus tinted his sympathy with tho misfortunes of his fellow-men. Since writing the foregoing, wo received the Savannah Republican; »r yesterday, which contained tho following: Death kron an Overdose »r Laudanum. On Saturday morning about eleven o'clock, Dr. J. T. Paterson, a well known merchant of this city, diod iu his room, at tho Cavil lion Hotel, from tho effects of taking an overdose of laudanum, lie had gone to bed late on Friday night, and complained of not feeling very well; was restless and eould not sleep. After having been in bed for some time he arose and took about forty dropsoflaudaiium. Thirty drops constitute the regular dose for an adult, we believe, but more than that amount lias been given without evil consequences ensuing. After takiug tho laudanum Dr. Paterson fell into a sort of stupor, which alarmed his wife, who called the proprietor of the hotel. Ho came and looked at the Doctor, who was apparent ly in a very deep sleep then, and he told her ho thought it was all right, and quieted her fears. After daybreak he failed to awake, and his breathing appeared to be very labored. Thoroughly alarmed for his safety, Mrs. Paterson had Dr. Fish sum moned. He came and administered Extract of Oaffiue as an antidote, but Dr. Paterson was then in a dying condition, and the antidote failed to relieve him. lie expired about twelve o’clock. He has been in the lumber business in this city and Brunswick for some time, and was the senior partner of the well known firm of Paterson & Tucker. lie was a gentleman and merchant of unblemished reputation, and a large circle of friends will mourn his untimely deuth. Deceased was about forty years of ago, and married, but had no children. Ills remains was taken to Augusta for interment yesterday morning. We 1 earn from a gentleman cognizant of ail the facts connected with this distressing affair, that the statement that Dr. Paterson took but forty drops of laudanum is based upon his own words. After taking the laudanum, his wife asked him what quantity he had taken. Ho slid “forty drops.” Afterward he wanted some more, and reached for the bottle, but Mrs. Paterson, fearing that he would take too much, hastily seized it, and then noticed that there was but little left in the bottle, and as there had been quite a large quantity there, she saw at once that he must have swallowed very much more than forty drops. lie was in a state of nervous excitement with regard to an important suit which he had pending at the North, aud he had his arrangements all mndc to leave by the steamer, on Saturday afternoon, for New York, to alien 1 the court.

We have before us tho following elec tioneering notice, ns far back as 1818, It seems that John Smith is candid —he bargains publicly lor votes. John is a model—he has no such imitators nowa days. But hoar what he has to say : I have obtained an exclusive right from the President of the United States for an improvement on a Washing Machine. If 1 am elected, this I give to the County of Adams, for every one to make use and sell, as they see proper. I ask for this gone cotes. John Smith, Candidate for Sheriff. Immigration toAinui ica--lixoilits from tier many. We learn from the Washington Chronicle that intelligence lias been received from Bremen, that 8,000 persons sailed the week before Easter fur this country in four steam ers aud seventeen sailing vessels, aud that steerage accomodations to the first of June, had been engaged. The subject of immigra tion is now occupying the attention of many persons at the South. In our State, by the recent action of the Georgia Railroad Con vention, and in our sister State by several of tbe large land holders, among them Colonel C. F. Hampton, who propose to donate lauds to immigrants to induce them to settle down in their neighborhoods. This is well aa far as it goes —it shows an awakening perception of what tho true interest of the South requires—an increase of industrious laborers; but to be effectual, something more is yet needed. Before a man goes to anew country to make his home there he wants to know what he is going to get besides mere land. He wants schools for his children, society for himself and his wife, and the certainty of being recognized ns a ftee and equal citizen by his neighbors. •Until Col. 11 ntnptoii and his friends can promise these things, their offer of free land will not do much towards attaining the object they desire. There is one other great desideratum m. our opinion, which is this: we must haven permanent civil Government, where life, liberty, and property is fully protected. Without this.it is supreme folly to hold out tho mere gift of lands as the only induce ment. Leaving their homes to seek peace and avoid war, these peoples from tho Despotisms of Europe can not he thus in duced to come to Ihu South until the Union is fully restored. Newspaper Anniversary. On the 24th of April, 1868, was the Ono Hundred and Sixty Fourth Anniversary of the first issue of the first number of tho first newspaper issued and printed in North America. The Boston News Letter, was first printed the 24th ot April, 1704. The American Weekly Mercury was first printed at Philadelphia on tfi,. 22d day of December, 1719. In New York, the New York Ouidte was first printed on the 16th day ol October, 1756. In Rhode Island, the Rhode Island Gazette, in October, 1733; no paper was published iu Connecticut until 1755 ; nor in New Hampshire until 1756 ; uor in Ken tucky until 1787 j nor in ths State of Ten nessee until 1790. If tbs publishers of the Boston News Letter eould now ewnken from his long sleep, and hs made fully aware of the progress made in tho “art preservative of all art*,' 1 and handle tbe mammoth dailies, now everyday “household words”—what would be his exclamation? llow utterly astonished would he he, that so small a spark as his of 1704 had kindled into so extensive end universal a fire, so soon, as only a century and a half, and a little over, had expired. A modern printing office would be a startling revelation to hiut of progress. Steam driving the revolutions of the press; steam making the typos, aud tho paper, and the machinery; stnam tho motive power, and American ingenuity the directing power. 'J lioso wonderful achievements would undoubtedly be beyond his compre hension. What then will be tho situation the same length of time in the future? Who can toll? If “coming events cast their shadows before,” wo are well satisfied that in the far distant future, equally great will be the improvements in mechanism as in that of the past century and a half, and that those of us who are now on the stago of life would be as niueh taken aback us we have supposed others would be (if now to return to earth, who were the first pro jectors of newspapers in this country), if in one hundred and sixty-four years lienee, or in 2032, we should be permitted to eome back to earth and view the vast amount of progress made in every vocation, and above all, in our own particular speciality.

JOSEPH K MURRAY, rnyb - law3w Awuguee, etc. CoDgreuional. Washington, May 18. —House lntr oduced under the regular call, was a bill to coastrue and prevent frauds in the law regarding abandoned lands in Southern States. A joint resolution amending tho Consti tution, making naturalized citizona eligible to the Presidency. A hill constructing government telegraph bunco to New York. A resolution appointing a committee of five to investigate the Senator Henderson and Missouri delegation affair, was adopted. A preamble nnd resolution authorizing the Speaker and two from thoso who voted ttgaiust impeachment to be present and ussist in tho investigation was rejected., Banks reported the Alaska bill, which wax postponed to June. Stevens offered a resolution calling (or the secret proceedings of tho Court, and said no one eould doubt there was deep damnation somewhere, and ho wanted to find out who was guilty, lu answering tho question whether Sena lors would have been justified in committing perjury, Stevens said : “ Well, sir, I don’t think it would have hurt them much.” The resolution passed. After rofusiug to concur with the Senate for a recess, the House adjourned until lu morrow. Senate. —Virginia Constitution referred to the Judiciary Committee. Memorial from Philadelphia Corn Ex change, for modification of whiskey tax, was roferred to the Finance Committee. Indefinite leave of absence granted Grimes. Deficiency appropriation, for 3rd Military District, was passed. Senator Harlan stated that ho had had no communication with Bishop Simpson since impeachment began. Adjourned to Thurs day. Wash ngtou Items. Washington May 18. —The House reso lution setting the impeachmout managers to work again, lias the following preamble: “Whereas, information has come to the managers, which seems to them to fur nish probable cause for them to believe that improper or corrupt influences have been used to influence the determination ol the Senate upon tho articles of impeachment exhibited to the Senate by the nouse of Representatives against the President of the United States.” The statement that Chase paid a congratu latory visit to the President yesterday, is untrue. Salutes in honor of acquittal were fired in several Northern cities. A doubtful rumor prevails that Grant has written a letter declining nomination, unless the platform conforms to his views, which creates considerable excitement. Washington, May 18.—It is stated that new Cabinet changes are pending, and it is asserted that the new Cabinet will tend to harmonize Congress and the President, and that the President will cease obstructing reconstruction on tho Congressional plan— the progress of events having rendered his own impossible now, and the material interests of the South requiring immediate representation of some kind. This statement is made on high Repub lican authority. Among witnesses summoned by the man agers are Dan W. Voorhoos, Perry Fuller of Kansas, and Gen. Tims. Ewing. The Impeachment in England London, May 18.— In soaui comments on acquittal, the 'limes says the eleventh article was almost too vague for any substantial charge, but the vote upon it corrects the fear of any parly bias, and shows the case to have been judged on its merits alone. The Morning Telegraph says that dignity and decorum have marked the whole trial, aud the non removal of the President is a most fitting close. Even the most ultra Republicans will lie compelled to admit this at no distant day. The Standard says the Republican plot is beaten, and the country saved tho shame ot deposing its Chief Magistrate for refusing to obey an illegal act of Congress. Salnavc’s Difficulties. Havana, May IS. Sainavo has reached Port au Prince. He arrested many citizens and shot some. Six American merchants were rubbed, and many Americans shot at their own windows by troops.

Later. —The British gunboat Phoebe left Jamaica for Port au Prince to assist the American Minister. Still Later. —Advices from Port au Prince to the 12th state, that the whole country, except Gonaives, Jacmel, ami the Cape, are in arms against Salnave.
