She *mnA mnnntannne Do We Ever Forget. One of tho most atartliog and mysterious phenome na afoot nature is the sodden revival of the recollec tion of scenes, events and thoughts which had appa rently been long forgotten. In many instances we can explain this by the law of association; but not (infrequently tne recollection flashes without warning upon the mind. It la as though we bad been gaaiug out into the blank darkness, which, lighted up all at onoe by a sudden flash, should become a theatre up on which the minutest events of our past life aro re enacted. Phenomena of this kind, more or less distinctly marked, occur in the experience of every individual, In his ordinary and normal states. But hero, as in so many other cases, great light is thrown upon the la tent capabilities or the mind by its action when phy sical disease has induced changes in the conditions which regulate Ha manifestations. The bodily or gans, in the healthy state, seem to act as chocks and limitations upon tno operations of tho mind, some what as the balance-wheel of a watch checks and reg- oheck — — watch move in time, and It may bo the limitation of the bodily organs which compel the mind to net in time. A disembodied spirit may have as little to do with time as with space. To all spirits, in their de- K ,as well as to the Supreme Spirit, one day may, le most literal acceptation of tho words, be os a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day; so that in future life we may continually live over ugaiu every portion of our past existence, not piece-meal and fragmentarily, but os an undivided whole; just as the eye takes in at a glance the whole prospect be fore It, no matter though it be bounded only by the remotest distance from which the furthest ray of light has come which has been coasting earthward since creation. Something of this sort has been remarked by those few who have so nearly overpassed the boundaries between the present anil the future life, that they have won a glimpse into that “ undiscovered country from whose bourne,” the great dramatist assumes, falsely perhaps. “ no traveller returns. ” De Quincy, the “ English opium eater, ” relates an incident of this kind or a friend who was at the point of death by drowning. At the moment when she was on tho point of death, she saw her whole life, down to its minote and apparently most trivial incident, arrayed before her, os if in a mirror; aud at tho Barne tune she felt within herself tho sudden development ota faculty for comprehending tho whole and every port. And be intimates that the possibility of this mighty development is confirmed by experiences of his own daring that abnormal relation between his spiritual and physical nature which had been induced by the owof opliun. Abercrombie relates tho case ol a boy by some violence which fracturedTuo state be underwent the operation of trepanning. Af ter bis recovery he retained no recollection of tho op eration or or the accident which occasioned ft. More than ten year* •*•7 u ® w *s seised with a vio lent which he became delirious. And how tho faint traces made so long ago upon nia «vu- •ciousness—traces bo faint that there was no reonou to suspect their existence—were brought out under the fierce alchemy of disease with tho utmost distinct ness, and ho related the occurrence with the utmost minuteness. One of the most common phenomena in respect to old age is the re-awakening of the dormant recollec tions of childhood. Many cases arc on record of emi grants who have left onr German fatherland, and have sought a new home in America, at ao early an age as to have forgotten their native language; but when, often in the extremest age, they lay upon the bed of death, those long-forgotten words come hack to their recollection, and their latest prayers were breathed in tb&t language in which their cradle hymns were sung. One of the mostaffecting and truthful deline ations in modern fiction, is that in tho beautiful Eng lish novel, “ Mary Barton,” where the aged peasant woman, when just passing the boundaries of the bet ter land, lives over again the days of her childhood. Carsten Neibubr, tho oriental traveler, father of onr beloved historian and statesman, furnishes a stri king example of the revived recollection of scenes and events ao long past. When old and blind, aud so fee ble that bo had barely strength to bo borne from his bed to his chair, the dim remembrance of his earl; adventures thronged before bis memory witii sucl vividness, that they painted themselves os pictures upon his sightless eyeballs. As be lay upon his bed, pictures or the gorgeous Orlont flashed upon his dark ness as distinctly as though he bad just closed his eyes to shut thorn out for an instaut. The cloudless blue of the Eastern heavens bending by day over the broad deserts, and studded by night with southern conitellatlous, shone as vividly before him, after tli lapse of half a century, os they did upon the first Chaldean sheperds whom they won to the worship or the hosts of Heaven ; and be discoursed with strange and thrilling eloquence upon thoso scenes which thus In the hoars of stillness and darkness were reflected upon bis inmost soul. The case of Tennent, a well known American cler gyman of tholast century, opens up many interesting trains of thought; but none more worthy of conside ration than this, of the sadden revival of recollection. Be was attacked by a dangerous illness, occasioned apparently by severe and protracted study. One morning, after bis life had been despaired or, while conversing in Latin with his brother, he suddenly be came insensible, and, to all appearances dead. His funeral was appointed, after the u*ual interval. But hi* phytlclaa, who was an Intimate friend, refused to believe that he could be dead; whoso conviction was somewhat supported by the averment of one of the persons who assisted In the laying out of the body, that he thought ho bad perceived a slight warmth fa thereigon of the heart. So earnest was tho physi cian, that the funeral was postponed; the time was again appointed, and again and again the friend pleaded for a little delay—first an hour, then half an nour, then a quarter—but still no signs oflifo appear ed, and it was determined that the ceremony should proceed. But just at the supremo moment, tho sunk en eyelids were raised for an instant, and tho body became onCe more an apparent corpse. An hour passed away, and a groan was heard, and again the bodyauukinto apparent death. Another hoar,and there was another groan, followed now by slight to kens of returning life. The feeble spark was care* frilly tended, ana thepatlen! was slowly restored to health. Bat it was soon apparent that nls memory was a complete blank. The past was entirely forgot ten as though he bad drank of the waters of Lethe. One day, aeeing bis aister reading, he asked her what U was that aha held in her band. On being answer ed that U waa the Bible, he rejoined,—” what la the Bible TI do not know what yon mean. ” In every re spect, aa far aa acquired knowledge waa concerned, be was a child again. Slowly and laboriously be re com menced bit education, beginning A the simplest rudi ments. He was one day reading an elemental? Latin book with the brother with whom be was speaking in that language at the time of his apparent deoease, when aliatonoe be stopped aa thr ' Vied a sadden shock, and declared tl ed familiar to him. In a very short time the veil was wholly lilted, and his put acquirements and experi ence became once more portions of his conscious be ing. Boring all this time, m he uniformly asserted, he had the most Intense and vivid recollection of all that transpired daring the days of apparent, or, as be irmly believed, real death. He dared not, he said, relate frilly what he bad witnessed in that spirit-land { botanacooont ©fit would be found unong his pa* pen after hla decease. This event, however, took piaoe dnringthe disturbances of the war of the Ainer* lean Revolution, and these papere,by a series 0 f«l n . ffutar aocidente, were lost before falling into the hands of Us ekeentor, and so were never examined. Bat U hlsowp testimony—the testimony of a man of nnimpeached veracity, who for more than hair a oentury thereafter maintained a character of remark able soberness and dreomspectlon—is to be relied upon,hie aool passed from the body and entered the 'world of mlritsVwbere he stood in the full presence of that instant* glory upon which no man may look and live.

(JA.: FRIDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 11. 1853. Qov. Johneoii’a Inaugural Address. The inaugural address of Gov. Johnson, which wo present to our readers this morning, will not fail to attract that general attention due nliko to a document of tho kind and tho distinguished source from whence it emanates. Had tho people of our commonwealth no other evidence whereby to judge of tho character of ita chief magistrate, and his ability to administer (ta laws, than the authorship of this address, their confidence in his honesty of purpose, under a just ap preciation of tho trusts and responsibilities which de volve upon him, would be hearty aud unreserved.— This address gives evidence on the part of ita author of a clearness of perception, a firmness of purpose, and an hamble reliance, worthy the head and heart of ono called to preside over and administer the extend ed and varied interests of a free and Christian peo ple. The great interests of education, agriculture, internal improvements, nnd the mechanic arts, arc alluded to as worthy the fostering care of the Govern ment. Upon these interests the stability of our laws and our continued prosperity os a people eminently depend, and therefore, in tho languago of tho Gov- nor, should uot bo neglected if we expect Georgia to advance to the stature of full grown maturity in the exalted attributes of a high civilization ; and to their proper advancement and future development we trust they will command that wisdom in council, and elicit thatprudence in action which they require at the hands of those called into our legislative councils. Our Federal relations are alluded to in becoming terms and in a proper spirit—a connection, tho true principles and merits of which cannot bo too clearly understood ; and, according to the constitutional com pact, too highly appreciated aud faithfully guarded.— Aa comprehending the objects of government, the re lationship of Individuals and States in that govern ment, and as breathing an culightened patriotism, the introductory address of Gov. Johnson is worthy himself and tho people to whom it is addressed. Dudpartuuk of the Alabama—Tho steamship Alabama, Capt, ScnKXCK, left this port at two P.

The New York 'lYibune publishes an extended ac count of Commodore Perry’s reception and proceed ings lu Japan, by Mr. Bayard Taylor.

Garrard, Esq., for tho sum ot $2^Q0, After onr grateful acknowledgments to a beneficent Providence for tho complete cessation of the dreadful epidomic with which our city has been visited, we owe a debt of gratitude to our countrymen North, South, East and West, whoso liberal subscriptions have contributed so much to alleviate tho sufferings of our strioken population. Next to the richest plea sure of doing a good act, the smallest contributor will have the heartfolt satisfaction of knowing that every dollar has been made instrumental in relieving the distresses of the poor, the friendless and the or phan, and that each and all doserve a monument of orphans’ tears, which, in their dying hour, will bo more valued than *• storid uro, animated bust," or the proudeat pile of bronzo, or monumental marble. Not to undervalue the munificent donations from abroad, but for our own justification, we must render tliauks to those of our citizens whoso money, and above all, whoso untiring labors were given to the poor during the prevalence of the epidemic. Besides thr ,,L - -• * ' le liberal donations-from nil classes, in money, societies foi “ aud for the caro of the orphans, were organized all parts of the city 5 tho ladies in and out of the city formed themselves into sewing and other beveva- lent societies, which still exist to provide for the hun dreds ol destitute orphan children, whom the dread ful scourge has thrown upon us. The society known as the *• Howard Association,” composed of some thirty persons, were occupied day and night during the whole time, and the amount of labor performed by them seems almost incredible— 8ome of them we happen to know scarcely had one night’s repose for weeks, and many of them had hardly time to take off their clothes for days and weeks. We hope that no false delicacy will prevent them from giving sorao detailed account of their al most superhuman labors, uot for their sake (for they have their reward) but for the honor of our city, which even in this terrible calamity, has not escaped the viperous tongue of slander; with some fanatics not only abroad but at home, it was said to be a just retribution for the sin of slavery. We should not have alluded to this circumstances but for the desire to state some facta, which will show who were the persons npon whom the scourge fell most fearfully— With but a very few exceptions, the victims were not natives of Lonlsiana, or even of the Southern States, but nearly all of them, more than nineteen-twentieths, were veiy yonng men from the mere Northern States or from foreign counties. A member or the Howard Association, who has lleved here for more than forty yeara—who was, though bat a boy, at the lines on the 8th January, 1815—whose business bas made him acquainted with nearly all of our citizens—informed ua that of the eight thousand persona who died this summer, he was personally acquainted with bat eight ! Wo got no contributions from England—and we wanted none. The London newspapers, however, were mindful of our distressed condition, and expres sed their commiseration by uvago jeers. They were welcome to withhold their money—but they might have spared their crocodile lamentations and piotu horror at the yacht regatta on the seaboard near onr city. If each things were so sacrilegious here; bow coaid they ever dare to be gay and happy in London —where the average annual norabor or deaths, from starvation alone, amounts to 13,0001—and from that point up in the scale of misery and poverty, the num bers increase in geometrical ratio. we will be pardoned this allusion: for, thongb the patience of Job waa proverbial, we find that when hla pretended friends came round him to upbraid and taunt him. even As replied with no small degree of dignified asperity, fpr which be has never been cen sured.

Is it nut then, a mistaken economy, that Georgia ha* so long dispensed with n State Geologist and Agricultural Chemist, charged with tho duty to Investigate her resources nnd to direct tho ener gies and capital of our people to their development? We have Just reason to bo proud of our advancement in facilities for rapid transport and travel. Their success has removed the prejudices which, for a time, impeded their construction, nnd gives augury of the prosperity and glory with which they are destined to crown our State. Whilst, therefore, we should not loso sight of a wise economy, we should be prompted by a liberal forecast, to foster our sys tem of internal improvements In every legitimate way. It will hasten the development of our resources, augment the value of our lands, tlx our populat on and strengthen our social bonds.

The relation between tho General and State Government* points out the rule of strict construction of the Constltu tion of the United States, as tho potar star for the one. whilst tho nature of the Federal compact Indicates, with , equal clearness.the duty of obedlenco, on the part of the ; other, to constitutional laws.

The institution of domestic slavery is peculiar to thorn. It is a part of their social, as well as their political structure. It is recognized and protected by the Constitution. It must r.ot be touched by Federal encroach ment. The agitation and heart-burning of the past must suffice—certainly so fur as Georgia is concerned. For. in acquiescing in the ‘ Cbmpromfie Jfcaiures ” of 1850, she has distinctly put tho Federal Government and its authorities upon terms.

Tho State Gazette learns that tho new State Capi tol will not be completed In time for the Legislature to convene In It.

It appeared that Ed ward Huddleford, of Georgia, has brought hither Ilia slavo, named Shelly, and that the Abolitionists had enticed hint off. Another party of Abolitionists, not knowing that tite slave had disappeared, got out a writ of habeas corpus, which was served on the mas- tor, who replied that the slave had been sick, and he has brought him to tho North for his health, and he had ran oil’some days since. Ho was not now In his custody, and was not desirous that ho should return, being a most unprofitable servant. Tito cuso wo* thus ended without the great question of constitution ality. Building Materials. Wo have already noticed the condition of tho lum ber trade. There has been an Important advance iu other building materials. It was the general opinion nmung dealers last spring, that bricks, owing to tbc increased number or manufactories on the Hudson River, would depreciate In value, but tho result ha* been to tho contrary. The city demand ita* been very brisk, and besides, there has been an unusual great demand from the Southern ports, l^trge quan tities of bricks, etc., have been exported to New Or leans, Charles ton, and California, rendering tho sup ply in the market at time* inadequate to the demand. Thu supply of bricks, lime, and similar articles in the city at present Is only moderate,and a further ad vancc la anticipated this winter. The article of hard bricks which sold in Jttnu last for $4,50 at wholesale are now $8,26 a 0A0 per 1000. Philadelphia bricks, used chiefly for facing, have been in active demand, but without much alteration iu price. Brown stone ha* been extensively used this season, but it has not increased in value. A large amount ol cement has been exported to California, also to New Orleans and Boston, and this article, owing to it* becoming more generally used, has increased from $1 to $1,50 per bbl. Inconse quence of its scarcity in the market, lime ha* in many cases been used instead. Kingston lime has been manufactured in large quantities and extensively ex ported. Since June it has advanced 10 cent* per barrel, anti tho wholesale price ia now 75 eta. Rock land lime haa varied in price*, and i* now $1 per bbl. Glen Fall* lime is held at $1.12^ per bbl. Lain* have varied much in price. Early iu the spring they were 18s. per 1000. In June they wero 13*., and they are now held nt 17*. The increase in the price of labor ha* had !ts effect on the brick and lime market. Lumber Trade ou the West.—The demand for lumber in Cincinnati lias entirely exceeded the sup ply, and great difficulty I* experienced in supplying the market of that city. It U said that hereaf ter Cin cinnati must depend upon the Lake regions, inasmuch as the construction of railroad* through the pine re gions of Pennsylvania and Western New York has opened a channel through which the lumber of those regions, which previously found its way to Cincinnati, now goes to eastern market*. A writer in a Cincin nati paper suppose* that this trade will center at Chi cago oa soon as direct railroad communication is opened between the two cities. According to the writer, Chicago is tho third lumber market, and will soon be the first on the continent. He also estimates that the lumber can bo conveyed cheaper by rail be tween the two cities, than by its present route from Detroit through the canal, and that it will proven valuable source of revenue to tho Chicago and Cin cinnati Railroad.—JV.

It is a common boast with would-be lino gentlemen that they have nothing to do. Young men, whose father* perhaps worked at the forge, drove cart* or blacked boot*, as servant* of nil work at a country hotel, profess to despise honest labor,and pride them, selves on a life of wealthy Indolence. Others, born of families that lrave enjoyed a competence for sev eral generations. look down contemptuously ou those later pretender* to gentility, and, like Spanish gran dees of tho first class, think their blood purer than that of other people, because it has flowed through drupe* for a century or more. Yet it i* the working man, not the idlo ono, who is a benefit to the state. Tho mere consumer add* no thing to the wealth of thu community. If we could suppose a commonwealth wholly composed of such persons, we should have ono that was impoverishing itself continually. Just in proportion, also, as na tions cease to be producers, and become consumers, do they decline towards poverty and ruin. The de cay of Spain Is an example in point. But a people Unit is mostly or altogether composed of working men, is always adding to it* wealth nnd enlarging its prosperity. America ha* fewer drones than any nation on the globe, and America 1* advancing In a ratio that i* without precedent. If it is a curse to a people to l>e idle, not the less deleterious is it to the individual. Nature never in tended human faculties to run to waste, os they do when a man has no occupation. A life ot indolence i* an almost sure precursor to a life of vice. To boast of having nothing nothing to do, is actually to stulti fy one * self. It Is to proclaim that the character i* destined to deterioration ; that tho cause of civiliza tion is to gain nothing in that quarter; that the uo- ble purposes or existence are to be selfishly sacrificed to mere sensual gratifications. In a word, it is to substitute tbo animal life of the savage for tho loftier duties of the man and citizen. The boast should be, not that ono does nothing, but that one never passes a useless moment. Every true man wishes to die in tho harness, as Adams, Clay and Webster did, and not to trlflo away life in emptv amusement* or vicious excitements. Recrotation is necessary to all, and no man can work sturdily with out It; but a Hie which is all recreation is a ratal blunder, to use the mildest phrase. It devours the individual with ennui, retard* instead of advancing his developments, contributes nothing to the benefit of society, and often ends in crime itself. If a man wishes to pronounce his own degradation, let him boast of having nothing to do. Solomon’s Temple, Wo see floating through the papers an estimato of the value of tho famous temple of Solomon. Tho building, it is stated, waa only 150 feet long, nnd 105 bread. Its costliness lay in the incredible splendor or the interior, of whicli the following account is given by the learned Pridcnux : “ The whole expense of this building was so pro digious, os gives oue reason to think that tlw talents, whereby the stun is reckoned, where another sort of talents, nnd of a far less value than the Mosaic tal ents ; for what is said to have been given by David, and contributed by the princes towards tho building of the temple at Jerusalem.if valued by these talent*, exceeds the value of eight hundred millions of our money, which was enough wherewith to have built all that temple of solid silver. But if we take tho valuation of the talent from Vil- lipandns, tho expenses of the building and ornaments amounted to £0,004.022,500 J The value of the gold vessels alone was £546,296,203sterling,nnd theBUver ones £439,344,000. Added to this were the wage*, provisions, aud other necessaries for 110,000 workmen and 70,000 slaves, for upwards of seven years; be sides 800 graud masters aud 3,300 overeeera. to whom, in addition to the wages, King Solomon presented, as a free gift, £6,763.077. Hence the treasure left bv David amounted to £911,416,207. The princes of Isreal, animated by this example, presented a still greater sum towards the accomplishment of this glorious undertaking. In addition to these treasures, Solomon devoted the greater part of his annual income to the Bame pur pose, and this was immense. The yearly treasures imported from Ophir amounted to 350 talents or £3,- 240,000 sterling of our money, and his annual tibute from dependent nations was £1.796,200.” The Home Grandmother. 8he is by the fire—a dear old lady, with nicely crimped and plaited cup border, and old fashioned spectacles—as n lease nt a picture of the home grand mother as any living hearth may wish to see.

On Tuesday last the first train of cars with pas sengers ran over tlmt portion of the Canadian Great Western Railroad, which is completed between Ham ilton nnd tho Suspension Bridge, being about forty- two miles.

Kullronrt Convention. In pursuance of a call made nt public meetings of citizens in various sections, interested in the propos ed railroad connection between Savannah and this city, a unmber of delegate* from these two cities, the. District of Barnwell, und the Beaufort Parishes, met at the Hibernian Hull at 5 P. if., yesterday. The Hon. W. D. Porter moved tho organization of the meeting by nominating Col. Alex. S. Lawton, a dele gate from St. Peters, as temporary Chairman, and Geo. 11. Walter, Esq., as Secretary, which nomina tions were unanimously received, and concurred in. The Chairman, before taking hi* seat, expressed briefly his sense of the importance of the objects that had convened them, which affected the interests of both cities proposed a* termini ol the route, and of all citizens of the intermediate sections. He also in dulged the hope that tho deliberations and discussions of the meeting would bo conducted in such a spirit as to result in action marked by wisdom and Justice that would overrule all conflicting claims, and har monize all in a determiuatiou to co-opcratc in execut ing nnd carrying out whatever plan might be recom mended. Gen. W. E. Martin remarked that from facts and suggestions communicated by various delegates, lie did not deem it polite to proceed now in organizing the Convention. The opinion had been entertained by many that the Convention would meet on Wednes day, the 9th, which day has been proposed first by tho Citizens’Meeting of St. Luke’s Parish. There waa not, accordingly, that full reprcseutatlon from some parishes and sections which it was desirable to secure, and which would no doubt be obtained by an adjournment over to some hour to-morrow. He moved therefore, tlmt when the Convention adjourns, it stand adjourned to meet at 5 P. M., of Wcduesday, for per manent organization and business. Gen. Martin’s motion gave rise to several amend ments, and led to a brief conversational discussion, participated In bv himself, Edward Rhett, Esn., of St. Helena, Hon. W. F. Coleock, and Hon. R. Barnwell Rhett. The question was finally taken on an amend ment offered by the last named gentleman, when it was decided by a vote of 28 to 15, on division, to ad journ to meet at 10 o’clock tin's morning. On motion of Hon. W. D. Porter, the Chairman of the respective delegations accredited to the Conven tion, were requested to prepare aud hand in list* of their members to the Chairman pro tem., before the hour fixed above for re assembling.

E*q., the Engineerin charge and his corpB of assistants, returned on tho evening train from MilledgevUle. The route surveyed passes by Sparta and MilledgevUle, and is 72 miles in length —and shorter than any travelled route between the two points. It passes tho Oconee at MilledgevUle and ruua through tho northern DMt of the city, cross es Fishing Creek near tbo Macon road and west of Oglethorpe University—runs to the head waters of Camp Creek, crosses Walnut Creek one or two miles above the Central Road and reaches the Ocmulgee at apoint within the city limits, and near the lower liue of the Cemetery.
