Gf.n. Piep.ch’s Carriage and Horses. * —On Thursday, the splendid carriage and horses presented by the Boston people to Gen. Pierce, arrived in New York en route for Washington. Th horses, which cost $1,400, are of a light bay color, with switch tails. The carriage is a very cosi ly one, the materials used in its construc tion being all manufactured in New Eng land. It weighs about 1,300 pounds, and cost $1,500. It is made in the French caleche style. The whole equipage, in cluding harness, &0., cost $3,500. This handsome present will be presented to General Pierce at Washington, by Messrs. Dunbar, Riddle and Fetridge, who are the committee on behalf of the Boston people. The harness for Gen. Pierce’s carriage, presented him by some friends in Boston, is about to engender a difficulty, the Com mittee and the manufacturer being fairly hitched in a law-suit. The Committee gave the manufacturer carte blanche , and he made the sett a little 100 fine— conse quently the Committee refused to pony up, and ordered anew set of tackling to be made in New York. Thecas/ off har ness cost $1,837, the mountings being of solid silver, in the shape of oak leaves, branches and acoins, to the tune of sl, 100. The Bridal cake at the late French we lding was made in London, and weigh ed 320 lbs. exclusive of the finery upon it. For the benefit of our lady reiders who are always curious on such subjects, wo annex a list of the ingredients: Dorset butter 21 pounds; loaf-sugar, S4 pounds; currants, 30 pounds; raisins, 30 pounds; fl >ur, 23 pounds; Jordan al monds, 42 pounds; 333 eggs; 40 lemons; or orange, lemon an I citroniogs, 24 pounds; three bottles of brandy, and two of noyeau. “I thank God,” writes Washington Ir ving, “I was born on the noble banks of tire liaison! I think it an invaluable ad vantage to be bora and brought up in the neighborhood of some grand and noble object in nature —a river, at h.ke, or a mountain. We nuke a friendship with it—we in a manner ally ourselves to it for life. It remains an object of our pride and a flee lions: a rallying point to call us home again after all our wanderings.’’ ‘satAißmata©, On tin- 3rd inst. at the residence of Mrs. Elizabeth Roan, by A.

Having examined the Books and Office o! our Ordinary, we take plea sure in saying that much credit is cue to Inin lor ‘lie business like appearance they present. We recommend that the sum of fifteen per cent, be laid upon the State tax for Poor School purpo ses, and would further recommend that the sum ol of ten cen'she paid to the District Commissioners Lr the name of cacti child returned hy them as be ing entitled to the benefit of the Foor School lund, to be paid out o'” said fund. We have examine'! the ho Us of the County Treasurer, and fi.nl thorn kept in a manner alto gether creditable to that officer, and find in his hands the sum of sixteen hu idled and thirtv-one 37-lUJ dollars, and recommend the Inferior Court to assess twenty per cent on the State lax for County purposes. We find our Courthouse not so well arranged for the transaction o'” business as we would desim and would therefore recommend the Inferior Court to have the lobby furnished with convenient seats. Also, we find, from experience, the present. Jurj seats to be very uncomfortable, and ca rues!lv re commend that an improvement be made n some way that will afford the weary Juror more comfort. We leave the plan to the Honorable In terior Court. Ami we further recommend the proper authorities to see that the doors and win be ilows kept iiijgood repair and properly closed. VVe find our Jail totally unfit for the purposes for which it was intended, and recommend that a new one be built as soon as practicable. The Public Roads in our County in many places \vc find well nigh impassable, reflecting great dis credit on both Overseers and Commissioners, and we recommend that the ltoad Law be rigidly en forced, that the habit of shg illy making Roads be abandoned, anti dial gooJ anil substantial work alone be received. The Bridges on many of the Creeks arc in such condition that.they should be repaired or rebuilt, particularly the Bridges on White Oak Creek, and one on Cane Creek, in the first district. Like other Grand Juries of our State we (eel deeply impressed of the evil of the retail of spir ituous liquors in small quantities, and therefore recommend to our Senators and Representatives at Hie next meeting of our State Legislature the passage of an act. giving to die ci izens of each AJIUim t>iorrict the rtglit io hold an election in or der to decide whether they will pemit. the retail of Spirituous Liquors in their respective Districts. — Wc, however,are opposed to the Legislature ta king any further action on this subject, holding that the right to restart or abolish the traffic of ardent spirits alone belongs to the people. We allow our Tax Collector Sl5O 03 insolvent list, sll2 53 for the S ate, and $37 50 for County tax. We recommend that the Siip -riniendants of Elec lions be furnished by the Tax Collector with a list of all who have not paid their tax, and that no man tie allowed to vote until lie pays his poll tax. VVe recoinm-’iid the Inferior Court to grant li cense, free of charge, to Wiley White to peddle dry noods and merchandise in this county lor tile space of one year, he being an indigent man who has been unfortunate in business, and also being, as vve believe, a man of great moral worth. In taking leave of his Honor Judge Hill, we .can but express our high a ’precaution of the ability and impartiality wit li which lie presides; and to our Solicitor-General, M. M. Tidwell, vve tender our thanks for his uniform courtesy to this body, We request thut our Preseahncnts be published in the .Georgia Jeffersonian, at Griffin, and m the Columbus Enquirer. JOHN L.

The above Chart contains twelve square feet of reading matter, equal in armtint to that of an oc tavo volume; and when its comprehensivnnss ol subject and/ietuil are taken into consideration it may be said to be a library within itself. It has been compiled from such works as contain the most au thentic and recent information relative to the coun tries described. Our one and simple object has been to initiate Hie reader into the pleasures to be derived, in a still greater degree, from perusing a a future period, more fully and extended details of the labors of those to whom we are indebted for the knowledge we possess of the various parts of the earth and early to imbue him with a taste for in truetive, in preference to fictitious reading. cherry” pectoral, For tlie rapid Cure of COUGHS, COLDS, HOARSENESS, BRONCHITIS,WHOOPING COUGH, CROUP, ASTHMA, AND CONSUMPTION. MANY years of trial, instead of impairing’ the public confidence in this medicine, has won for it an appreciation and notoriety by far ex ceedinglhe most sanguine expectationsofits friends Nothing but its intrinsic virtues and the unmistak able benefit conferred on thousands of sufferers, could originate and maintain tho reputation it en joys. While many inferior remedies thrust upon the community, have failed and been discarded, this has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits on the afflicted they can never forget, and produced cures too numerous and too remarkable tobeforgotton. While it is a fraud on the public to pretend that any one medicine will infallibly cure—still there is abundant proof that the Cherry Pectoral does not only as a general thing, but almost invariably cure the maladies for which it is employed. As time makes these facts withy and better Known, this medicine lias gradually become the best reliance of the nfiheted, from the log-cabin of the American Peasant, to tlic palaces of European Kings Throughout this entire country, in every Siafe, cifyyand indeed almost every hamlet it con tains, Cherry Pectoral is known as the best remedy extant for diseases of the Throat arid Lungs,Jand in many foreign countries, it is coming to he extensive ly used by their most intelligent Physicians. In Great Britain, France and Germany, where the medical sciences have reached their highest perfec tion, Cherry, Pectoral is introduced, and in constant use in the Armies, Hospitals, .4h ns-Houses, Public Institutions, and in domestic practice,as the surest remedy tlicit attending Physicians can employ for the mere dangerous affections of the Lungs. Al so tn milder cases, and for children it is safe, pleas ant and effectual to cure. In fact, some of the most flattering testimonials we receive have been from parents who have found it efficacious incases particularly incidenta l to childhood. The Cherry Pecloud is manufactured by a prac tical Chemist, and every ounce of it under his own eye, with invariable accuracy and care. It is seal oil and protected by law from counterfeits, conse quently can be relied on as genuine withuot adul lend ion. We have endeavored here to furnish the commuj nity with a medicine of such intrinsic superioriiy sand worth as should commend itself to their confi dence —a remedy at once safe, speedy and effectual, which this has by repeated and countless trials proved its df to be; and trust by great ca r e in pre paring it with chemical accuracy, of uniform strength to afford Physicians anew agent on which they can rely for the best results, and the afflicted with a remedy that wilt do for them all that medi cine can do.
