The New Orleans Picayune of the 3d inst. has one column entirely devoted to the announcement of Prof. Agassiz’s ap proaching swell of the waters of the At lantic Ocean, and the probable submer sion of the entire coast from Cape Hat* teras to Bahia, in Brazil! "Whether hoax or fact, we are not competent to decide ; but the.re is an evident vein of irony—a something too much like jocoseness—in the * details of the monstrous pbenome non, to inspire full confidence in its huge developments. It is said to be the calcu lation of Agassiz—a distinguished natu ralist and prominent savant cf New England; but when or where made, or how promulgated by the Professor, is not mentioned. Still, all may have been duly recorded, and all may happen at the appointed time, 5th of October next or moruiDg of the Gth ! The enormous height of this moving ridge cf waters is estimated at 50 feet! with a momentum of 40 miles or more to the hour, and a simultaneous breaking upon the shores, for at least one thou sand leagues. We cannot account for the absence of Prof. Agassiz’s autograph, or how the report of it reached New Or leans before and to the apparent exclu sion of other intermediate stations. Still it may all bo true; and in that case none the less unpleasant to be eo* countered. True or false—“ghost or goblin damned—to be or not to be”—is a question that we can’t shake off to our entire satisfaction. Such mighty up- Leavings of old Ocean’s fury have been, and it is bnt reasonable to infer will be again—and if again, why not exactly when and where science, with all its re cently improved facilities and laborious investigations, have said it will occur? Surely, Professor Agassiz has indulged in no sportive extravaganzas, nor enun ciated a mere vague hypothesis! And as surely, no prying sensational ‘inter viewer’ would dare abuse the rights of hospitality or the truthfulness of pri vate conversation to any such unpardon able and criminal hazard. Yet we‘are not happy’ and would vastly accept all these, rather than have fio much as a tithe of the shock of the Neptune-col- umn over the plains of the Alleghany and the Andes! We are not easy, and we charge the ‘‘Picayune” and Macon Telegraph, to keep a sharp lookout : in the mean time, we propose not to be idle iu getting our mop and pail ready, that, like old Mrs. Partington we can help to soak up the superfluities ! Specialised Medical Practice. We clip the following from the Atlan ta Constitution, and notico it that young Practitioners and Students of Medicine may bo induced to follow the lead of Dr. Simpson. Wo arc aware there is noth ing original or new iu Lis course ; but it lias fallen into too general disuse, or does not receive in the South the same care and attention as elsewhere. In Eu ropean Colleges, if we are not mistaken, it is an established feature in their cur ricula, as well to cultivate thorough ad vancement iu all the branches of cure, as to accommodate individual preferences. Surgery is almost as distinct a science as it is separately practiced in all large cit ies: so of Dentistry in part; but both are not uufrequently exercised by the general Physician, and certainly under many and unavoidable difficulties. Prob ably it would also be better if other or gans or diseases were exclusively studied and attended to; at least, it seems rea sonable that surer and more reliable treatment would ensue. Not only affec tions of the eye, but impaired hearing— kidney complaints, Paralysis, Rheuma tism, &c., might be made lucrative spe cialties, greatly benefitting the afflicted, and to the manifest relief of the old ‘pack-horse’ Doctors: Du. Carolus A. Simpson.—This high ly esteemed young physician of our city, left for New York to ependjsome months in the ‘Eye Infirmary’ of that city, with a view of familiarizing himself with tho more difficult operations on the Eye. We are glad to know that Dr. Simpson’s ab sence is only temporary, and that, on his return, he will resume the practice iu the line of his {specialty. Having graduated in Europe, and attended the hospitals of some of the largest cities of the old country, and baviDg several months experience in the ‘Eye Infirma ry’ of New York, he will afford our citi zens rare advantages for the treatment of the Eye. U. S. Cavalry.—A detachment of the Seventh U. S. Cavalry, Lieut. B. H. Ilodgson commanding, arrived in Thom* asville on Friday last from Atlanta. They were said to be on their way to Florida to assist the revenue officers in making their collections. ty The New Orleans Picayune oi the f 3d inst., bas the following extract fVom the Cincinnati Commercial of the 30tli August: “On Sunday morning last, Mr. Robert Lee, a submarine explorer, at work on the wrecks of the America and United States, which boats were lost, nearly three years ago, near Warsaw, about 50 miles below here, fouud the remains of a woman beneath the hull of the Ameri ca. She was past recognition, but the discovery of a full set of false teeth, on gutta percha, and three gold rings, two of which bear the initials S. E. J. and R. A. J., and one the name, Thomas De* Kalb Harris, may Berve to identify it. The person is snppoeed to have been a bout sixty years old." . Thomas DeKalb Harris named in the above, we presume, is the same gentle man who for maDy years lived in this city, and left it for Washington, D. C., where he was or had been engaged up to the beginning of hostilities, as one of the assistant clerks to the U. S. House of Representatives. As to what relation ship he bore to the unfortunate female alluded to, we know nothing; and our latest tidings of himself are, that he was residing in some one of the counties, ei ther in Georgia or Alabama, at no great distance from the city of Columbus. Of bis whereabouts now, or whether he is still living, we are ignorant. Beauties of RAbiCALisM.—The New > York Tribune publishes a written agree- : ment between Governor Butler of ±Se-j braska and J. D. Silver & Son, con tractors, whereby the latter agree to pay to the former ten thousand dollars, pro vided the contract for building the State University and Agricultural Col lege be awarded to them (Silver & Sou) at a stipulated price. California Election.—San Francis co, Sept. 7—California has gone Repub lican by from three to five thousand majority. The entire State ticket is elected. The result in San Francisco is in doubt as to Mayor, but the prospect now is strong that Atwood, the candi date of the tax-payers, is elected. Dreadful Tragedy in Wilkinson.— The Macon Citizen Icarus that about midnight, Wednesday last, a party of unknown men gagged and killed Mat thew Deason, Sheriff of Wilkinson coun ty, and also a negro woman iu his em ploy. and threw their bodies into a mill pond near by. The bodies were recov ered on Friday morning, and the Sheriff Deason was found to have a gun shot wooud in the head, while the remains of the woman gave evidence of having been badly mutilated with a knife. The Citi- een received its account from an appa rently reliable source, but will not vouch for its correctness. New Advertisements* From the Constitutionalist. Removal of the Seat of Govemmoct, The wishes of the people of Georgia on the removal of the seat of government from Milledgeville to Atlanta were never fairly consulted and expressed. The removal was effected by a trick. Had a vote been fairly and squarely taken on the isolated proposition, it is onr deliber ate opinion that the change would never have been made. The subject of remov al from Milledgeville was frequently dis cussed in the public prints and in the Legislature. It was, indeed, a standing dish for discussion before that body. The public mind was constantly barrassed by it. The people, and especially the property holders of Milledgeville, were kept in a Btate of chronic ferment by it. The question was submitted, pure and simple, once at least, directly to the pop ular vote, and the decision was against removal. Had the question been sub mitted independently, and by itself to the popular vote, iu April, 1S6S, when the present Constitution of Georgia was ratified by the people, we believe that the proposition to remove the seat of government to Atlanta would have been rejected. But the question wa3 artfully incorporated with the Constitution adopt ed in Convention iu March, 1868, and there was no chance for the question to be divided. The vote was necessarily for the Constitution or against the Con stitution. It was taken in its totality, and there were a thousand reasons ope rating on the people in behalf of the adoption of the Constitution. They could not afford to reject it because of one, two or more obnoxious features in it. The State was under the heel of the Federal Government. It was a military satrapy. The will of a Yankee General echoing orders from headquarters, or yielding to his own capricious impulses, was the su preme law among us. So restive were the people under this condition of things, that they voted for the Constitution sub» mitted because they looked to it as the only door of escape from arbitrary power. Thousands of voters to whom the a*- bandonment of Milledgeville was unpal atable, voted for the Constitution under this pressure. It was voting as it were under duress. They feel that an unfair advantage was taken of them in this matter. They would delight in an op portunity to show their resentment of the wrongs perpetrated on them. They feel that a fair opportunity to express their real preferences in this matter is dne them. They v^l demand of their mem bers of the Legislature some action at the approaching seesiou. There can now be no ebange back to Milledgeville, or any other point, except by amending the Constitution. The provision for amendments to the Consti tution is as follows : “This Constitution may be amended by a two-thirds vote of two successive Legislatures, and by submission of the amendments to the qualified voters for final ratification-” We do not now propose to go into the discussion of the considerations in favor of Milledgeville. They were always strong enough to keep the seat of gov ernment there, in defiance of the objec tions, real and fanciful, urged against Milledgeville by rival interests, when the question stood upon its own merits. They are stronger now than they were then, and some of the objections former ly urged are untenable now. The subject is brought to pqblic at tention by the proceedings of the recent meeting in McDuffie county. They in vite public meetings in other counties. Lorillard & Co.—We suppose that most of onr readers, says the Macon TeU egraph, have heard of this celebrated to bacco and snuff house of New York city. They have never had an advertisement in our columns, but we propose to give them one without charge. An Atlanta tobacco merchant called at the house a short while since to make some heavy purchases. Before buying, however, be told one of the firm that he had been solicited by the Lee Monument Association, to establish agencies in that city for the sale of the pictures of Gen. Lee, and asked this business man if he would not subscribe for one. He receiv ed a most [abrupt and insulting answer after this wise. “Sir, I would not per mit the picture of such a traitor and rebel to come into my bouse, if I knew it, much less encourage tbe building of a monumert to bis memory by paying my money for it. I think it an insalt for you to ask me to do such a thing.” On being asked by the Atlantian if he did not care for Southern trade be re plied, “that he would not give a cent for it.” We trust that our friends and South ern dealers, generally, will not hereafter trouble these gentlemen with what they do not ‘‘care a cent for." Remember tbe bouse; Lorillard & Co., New York city, From Charlbston.—Charleston Sept. 7.—There have been three deaths from yellow fever during the last twenty-four hours. From Cuba.—Havana, Sept. 7.—The English Government demands damages for the blockade of the British ship at Port-au-Prince by a Spanish cruiser. Yalmaseda was at Santiago de Cuba on Tuesday. The steamer Ocean Queen touched at Kingston to-day. New Advertisements* R. R. K.

A precocious LaGrange pullet, only eight months of age, is the reputed moth*- er of two distinct litters of chickeas. It is thought that Jeff Long is an as pirant for Senatorial honors in the 22d District. The white meu of that Dis trict want little here below, but they don’t want that little Long. The Senoia Journal says that Hi Kimball has gone to Europe “because the United States are too small for his gigantic railroad operations.” This sat isfies us. We hadn’t looked at it in that way. A little child of Mr. D. Brogden, of Atlanta, was drowned on Thursday eve ning by falling into a tub of water. The LaGrange Reporter says there is a good deal of complaint among planters in regard to the shortness of tbe cotton crop in Troup county. The Macon Telegraph says: “It is currently reported tLat the Central Rail road is about to take measures to pre sent the crossing of the Southwestern Railroad track by the Brunswick & Al bany Railroad. They concede the light to the Bainbridge, Cuthbert and Colum bus Road to do so, as it runs North and South, but deny that a parallel line can claim a similar privilege.” The Griffin Georgian says: We learn from our farming friends that the recent rains have damaged cotton considerably. A two thirds crop is a big estimato at present in Spalding and surrounding counties. The corn crop on upland is reported good, The first five bales of new cotton were carried to Augusta by Mr. J. M. Turpin, of Richmond county. lie received the premium of one hundred dollars offered by Messrs. Brauch, Sons & Co., of that city, for the first five bales of ucw cotton from one planter. It is rumored around in Atlanta that one of the State Road defaulters has turned State’s evidence, and has also ex pressed a determination to refund thirty thousand dollars. Judging from the. a- mount, this party was only an outsider. The Albany News says : Wo are now in possession of reliable data from the whole of Southern and Southwestern Georgia, relative to the condition of the cotton crop, and it is our painful duty to report a disastrous failure. This is* no sensational announcement, and is not based upon doubtful information. The best sections of this portion of the State cannot possibly reach two thirds of an average crop, while the poorer sections will hardly exceed one-third. The acre- agejof the latter being much the largest, the plain deduction is that a half crop will not be realized. Before the receDt storms and continued rains, the better lands promised a good yield, but not a full crop. Now tbe rust is making fear ful ravages, and the caterpillar is spread ing with destructive rapidity. We have direct intelligence from nearly all the large plantations in the Oakwoods belt, and the concurrent testimony discloses disaster everywhere.

This wondeiful mechanical achievement in point of RA PIDITY and LIGHTNESS of DRAUGHT. STANDS WITHOUT A RIVAL, and is des tined at an earlyjday to supercede ALL OTHER Cotton Screws, be they fabricated of Wrought or Cast lion. Since last fall, and before accepting Patent, we ad ed improvements and labor-saving con veniences, rendering it PERFECT in every particular. The screw, or pin, has a pitch, as fall, of 6i inches, that is, at every turn of tLe screw, follower block descends (or ascends, or the case may be) 6$ inches. The device of the tube or nut in which the screw works, is such as to materially reduce the friction, so great in the common screw ; thereby ren dering it an easy task for three hands to pack a bale of cotton in HALF THE TIME of ANY OTHER Iron Screw Press by horse power. When desirable, an ordinary mule can be substituted for three men without change of fixtures. (Screw Presses also arranged for water and steam power.) We claim for the “ECLIPSE SIMPLICITY, STRENGTH, DURABILITY, RAPIDITY, LIGHT DRAUGHT, and STANDING ROOM at top of box, etc., etc.; we pronounce it the BEST Screw Press IN THE WORLD, and res pectfully invite a public test with any and all other Screw Presses. To purchasers, we GUAR ANTEE SATISFACTION or REFUND PRICE MONEY’. Orders daily received from dif ferent States attest its popularity even in infancy. To parties who may not desire such ra pidity in packing, we can supply them with the COMMON WROUGHT IRON SCREW of fine (slow) pitch, and warrant them equal to any otberJWrought Screw manufactured. But above all others, we recommend the strong, rapid, light draught “ECLIPSE.” Send for price list, etc. :o: CRAIG’S PATENT HORSE POWER, FOR DRIVINGS COTTON GINS ForGinning C otton, CRAIG’S HORSE POWER is as far in advance of the.ordinary Gin Gear as the ordinary Gin Gear is in advance of ALL THE OTHER HORSE POWER now ad vertised and manufactured in the State, We are WILLING and ANXIOUS to PROVE Ibis, if allowed an opportunity of a PUBLIC TEST. The above Horse Power has proven, by actual test, to be the most simple, durable, econom ical and of lighi est draught, of any Hor.-e Power yet introduced to the public. REQUIRES NO MECHANIC TO ADJUST IT. Any farmer can pot in position and operation in several hours, as it sits upon tbe ground. The Gin may be located at either end of the Gin house, or directly over the machine, as preferred. W£ GUARANTEE WORKMANSHIP, MATERIAL AND PERFORMANCE; And further, we will legally obligate ourselves to REFUND PRICE MONEY where ma chine fails to perform satisfactorily. We challenge any and all Inventors and Makers of Horse Powers, to meet ns in an actual test, and produce the equal ot this Machine for driving a Cotton Gin. We manufacture two sizes—No. 1 for driving 50 and 60 Saw Gin ; No. 2 for 40 and 45 Saw Gin. This Power will speed a Gin, having an 8 inch pulley, (standard size) THREE HUN DRED REVOLUTIONS PER MINUTE—calculating the mules to make three rounds per minute or Two Hundred and fifty Revolutions |with the moles making only two) and a half rounds per minute—(a very low estimate.)
