important Discovery.— We have received as a prosent from our friend. Dr. William He mphreis, offcavannuh,a box of very superior Cologne, manufactured from tbe common Sour Orange peel. This fruit has heretofore been considered of little or no value, save fir preserv ing—and to Dr. UrMPHREvs, a native of Macon, Ga., belongs the honor ofhaving discovered that large quantities of Alcohol are scereted in its peel ; and thus converting to important medical purposes, a fruit viewed as little better than a “cumberer of the ground.” By his process he can distil/or/i/ gallons of pure Alcohol in ten *ninutes, which has been pronounced by compe tent judges, to be superior to any ever manufac tured for medicinal purposes or perfumeries.— We have seen the beautiful silver medal and diploma awarded to Dr. Humphreys, in October last, by the American Institute of New York, as a tribute to Southern enterprise and industry, in thus developing anew resource of our State. Ilis diploma, we believe, is the only one pre sented by this Institute South of Pennsylvania We hope persons visiting Savannah, will give Dr. II ■ a call, as he has for sale a fino assortment of drugs, medicines and perfumery, &e. The friends of Temperance need have no fears of Al cohol in visiting his establishment, as lie is a feealous “Son,” and will have a fount of Soda Water, as good as the best to regale them with. The following is a certificate of some respect able gentlemen of Savannah, given to Dr. IF. “Savannah, Ga., Oct. 24, 1848. We, the undersigned, have witnessed the sue cessful experiment of Mr. William Humphreys, Jr ,in distilling, from the Peel of the Sour Orange, a native growth of the States of Georgia and I'lorida, Alcohol of a superior quality. Signed, C. P. RICHARDSONS,' M D 11. K BURROUGHS, M D. m hall McAllister, EDWARD PADELFOKD, OCTAVUS COHEN, J. L. LOCKE, Ed Sav Rep. DAOCEnitEOTTPES. We have seen several specimens of the art taken by the skylight process by Mr. Hankins, which for beauty and excel lence of likeness are equal to any obtained in the usual way, whilst they are executed in a few seconds. Mr. II ankins will be at the Indian Springs in a few days, where those wishing to obtain their likenesses can do so, by giving him a call. A Good Sale.—We learn that a lot of forty hales of cotton grown in Houston countv, by Samuel Dinkins, Esq , was sold a few days s tice in this city, at thirteen rents per pound ! His cotton generally sells at about one cent per per pound above the market price, in conse quence of the superior manner in which it is put up, which should induce others to emulate his example, lie received last spring a silver medal lor the best lot of cotton that went to the Savan nah inaaket. With a little more care on the part of our planters, as good cotton could he produced in Georgia as any other Southern State. Tiif. Crops. — We learn that for several weeks p:s! the weather has been exceedingly favorable for the growing crops, which have revived and are now in a nourishing condition. The drought which prevailed a month or two ago, enabled the farmers to kill the grass, and the recent rains have caused a favorable change in the corn and cotton crops generally. THE NEW PRESIDENT AND CABINET. The death of the President, Zachary Taylor having-occurrcd—at I‘2o’clock on the 10th inst. his successor, Millard Fillmore, was dulv sworn into office as President, before both Hous es of Congress ; and the customary orders to pay tribute of respect to the deceased were issu ed by the various departments. The Hon. Wm. R. King, of Ala , wasunauimously chosen Pres ident of the Senate. The old members having resigned, the following gentlemen have been appointed by the President to compose the new Cabinet, viz : R C. WINTHROP, of Mass. Sec’y ofSta'e. Mr VINTON, of Ohio, Sec 'ry of the Interior. Mr. McKIN NON, of Penn , Sec’ry of Treas’ry Mr. G. GRAHAM, of N. C., Sec'ry of War. Mr. T. IL KING, of Ga , Sec'ry of the Navy- Mr. MOREH EAD, of liy., Postmaster Gen'!. Mr. HOPKINS, of Ala. Attorney General. We do not know what course they will pur sue in relation to the slavery question hut are inclined to think they will favor the “Clay Com promise,” as that ought to satisfy even Messrs. Winthrop and Vintonr. Cut we shall soon SCO. mpTiie Charleston Courier has recently ap peared in an entirely new dress, which makes it one of the handsomest, and it has long since been one of the very best commercial papers in the Union. We wish its enterprising proprie tors all the success which their industry so rich ly merits. The Cholera.—Wc regret to learn that this disease i9 rapidly spreading in many of the cities on the Mississippi river and its tributaries. Mr. Andrew Ker, of the firm of Kers &, Pope, of Augusta, died of this disease at that place a few days ago, having contracted it on his journey from Mississippi to that city, which is now re markable healthy. At Nashville,T cnn. there were twenty-seven deaths for the twenty-four hours preceding the 9th inst. Many of the most respectable citizens had died and business was generally suspended. ICPThe Columbus Times states that a melan choly scene.. occurred at the residence of Mr. Matthews, in Muscogee county, during a thun derstorm on the 12th inst. Mr. Matthews’ littlo son and a negro boy were struck dead by lightning, and a little girld, daughter of Mr. Cox was so severely shocked, that for a length of time Iter life was despaired of. Vote of Censure.—The Galphin case was taken up in the. House of Representatives, on tho bth inst , and Mr. Sciif.n'k’s proposition, virtual, ly censuring Mr. Crawford, was adopted by 158 yeas, to 25 nays. Tho virtual censure of the President, moved by Mr. Thompson, of Miss, ''as then agreed to by 91 yeas to 66 nays, THE MEETING ON THE SIXTH OP JI’LY. On the first page of this impression will he found tile official report of the proceedings of the meeting held at the Court House in this city, on the evening of the Gth inst. by the friends of the “Clay Compromise.” We present them as a part of the strange drama that is now being enacted on the political stage, whilst we dissent to tlie Resolutions both iu tone and spirit. If wo reflect for a moment on the wonderful progress made by the free soil party at the North, i and its march is still onward, we will see the I absolute ueccssity that exists for a firm and un- j divided resistance by (be people at the South to further trespass upon their constitutional rights Fifteen years ago, the men who would have dared to advance such opinions as those pro claimed at this meeting, would have been con sidered as “ affording aid and comfort to the enemy.” But now they are put forth by men most of whom we have heretofore been accus tomed to view as the champions of our rights, and who have quite as much at stake, as those I who disagree with them—\V« are at a loss to i account for this division upon a vital question ' Were a stranger to read these resolutions, he ; would be very apt to inquire why all this divi- j sion and excitement, and whether the North j bad trespassed upon our rights—and if so, were I they iu earnest ? so submissive and indefinite is their tone. But how do we find the case ? Why about fifteen years ago, “a few fanatics,” as they were called then, and now, petitioned Congress to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia! and the Territories. Much was said in defence of their “sacred right of petition,” by John Q. Adams, Slade and others. About that time, the Hon. H. L. Pinckney, a Representative in Congress from the Charleston District, with a view, we have no doubt, of allaying the ex citement then existing on the subject, being Chairman of the Committee, reported a bill to the House of Representatives in Congress, re commending tho reception of aholitiun petitions in order o lay them upon the table, while Gen. Glascock, ol Georgia, opposed their reception. Well at the next election, these gentlemen were both candidates for re-election in their res pective States, and we ask our readers to note the result then and see what a change has come over a large portion of the people of this State at least, in relation to showing the free soilers any favor, or giving Congress jurisdiction over the subject of slavery, which is so clearly grant ed iu the “Clay Compromise.” The people of: Charleston, who are ever ready to discern and maintain their rights, brought forward an old Union man, Hugh S. Legake, and triumphantly j elected him over Mr. Pinckney, where the State Rights Party had a majority. In Georgia, the' name of the lion. C. E. Haynes, wc think, was withdrawn from the State Rights Ticket and that of Gen. Thomas Glascock the Union can didate, substituted therefor, in order to express the approbation of the people of Georgia of ii is course in Congress, in opposing the reception of Abolition petitions, and the consequence was, (as well as we recollect, and we quote only from memory, and stand corrected if we err, for we w ill not knowingly misrepresent,) Gen. Glas cock received some forty thousand votes , when neither of the other candidates received over I twenty-six thousand. Then we were united— devotion to men ami party, right or wrong, held no sway over us, and we were prepared to defend our rights on the slavery question, as one man. But alas ! it is not so now, and we con fess it “ more in sorrow than in anger.” We find a measure receiving the support of a respectable portion of the people of Georgia, which if carried out will give Congress control of the subject and inevitably secure to the fiee soil party territory where slavery now exists. ! We look upon tile so-called ‘Clay Compromise,’ ' as a fraud upon the South, and even Daniel Webster had the candor to call it an “Adjust ment loll.” instead of a Compromise. It seeks J to bring California into the Union as she is, thus I \ irtually enacting the Wilinot Proviso—and to! despoil Texas ofha'fher domain, now slave, and j convert it into free territory, by annexing it to j New Mexico—and to give Congress control over the subject of slavery in the District of Colum J Ida, thus securing its eventual abolition there— and allows the slave to contes his master’s claim j by a trial by jury, which we suppose it w ill be j said, is to secure this inestimable right of free men. What we ask is the South to get for all these concessions which she is culled upon to make to Northern cupidity. Nothing at all. And yet we are »•*?»’ ! , ->t we must take the “ Clay Com promise” r... he best ice ran get." We do not think so and shall therefore contend for the Mis souri Compromise line being extended through to the Pacific, whereby we shall secure an outlet there, although we view even this as unconsti tutional, hut not more so than the “ Clay Com promise ’ —By the former we shall get 4 a half a loaf, which is better than no bread,” whilst by the latter the South loses all. Atlanta ano I.aGranhf Railroad. —The President of this Road is the Hon. J P. King, and it has a capital of $1,000,000. Eighty-six miles of it are constructed, forty.three of which were graded during the last ten months. The road is to ho all built on the cash principle.— Heavy T rail, at $43 per ton delivered, is al. ready purchased. This road connects fifteen hundred miles of railroad at Atlanta with the Alabama Railroad. It is calculated that pas sengors from New York will ho able to reach New Orleans in four and a halfdays, when this road is finished, and there will boa continuous railroad from New York to the Alabama liverat Montgomery. The estimated cost is $850,000, and the dividends will be about 15 percent. We apprehend, however, that when the Waynes borough Railroad is completed io Augusta and the branch from this city to Columbus via Fort Valley, which is now being built, the Central Railroad will bo quite a rival, and successfully compete with the above company f< r a large share of the through travel. The heavy new rail will all he laid down on the Central Rail Road by the first of January next, when for sta. bility and comfort,it will not be excelled by any Railroad in the United States. When this is done, it will not be a difficult task to breakfast in .'lacon and dine in Savannah 1 I THE MONTHLIES.

We have received the proceedings of a large and genera! meeting of tiie citizens of Austin, and county of Travis, at the capital of Texas, al which Chief Justice Hemphill presided, and Judge Oldham, Chairman of a Committee, made a Report and offered Resolutions, which were unanimously adopted. The fourteenth isas fol lows : Resolved : That we belive the honor, integri’v, and rights of the State demand that immediate, prompt and efficient means be adopted, to put down the insurrectionary and rebellious move ments in Santa Fe ; and to extend and maintain the jurisdiction of the State over that portion of her Territory.

Destructive Fires —The sevi rest fire that ever occurred in Philadelphia, took place on the Dili inst., in the fourth story of a building on Delaware Avenue, between Race and Vine sts. An explosion of six or seven hundred hags of saltpetre blew out the walls, Scattering flames and death in every direction. There were 80 or 40 persons killed, and a much larger number wounded. The fire spread with consuming fury through Water to Front street, and reached Se. omul, covering the entire space _fraxn iSiX'ini!. street to the river, and from Now street to Cal lowhill, destroying between four and arc hun dred buildings, with their vain utei.i , a mounting to several ■ 'Pinna of dot la: s. A f:c r - -urred at P itiklyn on the ii ult., which destroyed .. ut $200,000 worth of pro perty.

CARY COX, Informs the Public that lie is prepared for the reception of persons sutiering MIL, with chronic diseases, at his H ater Cure or Electro Hydropathic Establishment, near Marietta, Cobb county, Ga His Baths are sit uated near the principal Buildings. The scene in the immediate vicinity is picturesque, being near Keunesaw Mountain. The scenery, pure water, the great elevation above the level ofthe ocean, (being 450 feet above even the Tennessi e line on the Western and Atlantic Railroad,) the convenience of access by Uailrnnd, the refined and intellectual society, and pure atmosphere, have all most admirably conspired to render the location suitable for an establishment of the kind. The Proprietor deems it needless to say any thing relative lo the eurative powers of either Water or Electricity, as the general mass ofthe people in this country have attained a know ledge of their'great value ia removing disease. He flatters himself that iie is able with pure Water and Electricity, to remove any character or des cription of disease that could, under oilier treat ment or circumstances, possibly be removed— together with a numerous host, that all other remedies must necessarily fail to remove. The expenses per day, for a Patient at bis Establishment, will be for Board, use of Electric Shocks and Baths, with Water Baths, Medical advice and attention, with ordinary attention of Servants,sl 50: which includes all necessary expenses,except washing an outfit for the sweat ing process, bandaging, &c.—payable weekly in advance.
