Rttu Garnett; Or the Loves of the
Ear! of Rochester.
This is a deeply interesting work, and
is written with great power. The period
of history from which the materials are
drawn is richer in incident, and possesses
more prominent features than, perhaps,
any other; and the author has availed
himself of them with great tact, creating
a work which is at once fascinating and
instructive, the facts being mainly true,
and the personages real. We are here let
into all the deep secrets of a court, the
intrigues of which stand now, as they
did then, the wonder of all nations—for
they were the hatchings of the brains of
a set of men end women who have never
been surpassed in wit, or wickedness. —
Rochester and Buckingham, Castleinaine
and Nell Gwyne, Cromwell and Oates,
are names of potent spell to conjure up a
hook of which the author may well be
proud, and which in England, has had a
most flattering reception. The Press
speaks of it in the highest term c , and
places it in the same category with
“Bookwood” and “Windsor Castle,” by
which the author achieved his deserved
ly high reputation. It is a work well
calculated for the domestic circle, being
devoid of all that could offend the most
fastidious. Price, 50 cents. To he had
at the Book Store,Griffin, Georgia.
Supreme Court Judge.
The telegraph has brought us the gra
tifying intelligence of the appointment of
John A. Champhell, Esq. to supply the
vacancy lately existing on the Supreme
Court Bench of *he United States. Our
readers will recollect that some time since,
we expressed a wish to see him elevated
to that high place.
Asa lawyer, Judge Campbell is un
questionably the foremost in his own State,
(Ala.) and probably second to none
n any State. But it is not alone his
high legal qualifications, that gratify us
at his appoinment. We look with even
more interest to the fact of his through
guir.g State Bights principles, under the
guidance of which he cannot do other
wise, as a Judge, than strictly to construe
the constitution of the United States in
all decisions involving the powers of the
Federal and State government. He is a
State rights man of the straitest sect. —
His selection by the President adds too
the evidence which we already had, that
we were not mistaken in advocating the
election of Pierce, on the ground that he
w as a State rights man and strict construc
tionist. — Georgian.
The Small-Pcx.
Our readers will expect, as a matter of
course, that we keep them advised of the
prevalence of this disease in our midst,
until it subsides. This we have done
and will continue to do, as honestly and
faithfully as we are capable, he shall
not follow the example of some of oui
cotemporaries, vho remain mute upon
the subject, or give it a gloss and color
ing calculated to deceive. We know
from experience that it is a loathsome,
malignant and dangerous disease, and
we intend to keep the public upon their
guard, so long as a single case exists
here.
Since cur last report there has been
two deaths. All the other cases in Her
ringvilie are now convalescent, and as
we stated last week, we apprehend no
danger from that quarter. On yesterday,
how ever, a case “broke out” in the ex
treme eastern part of the city proper.—
What will be the extent of its prevalence,
we cannot of course now determine
The city authorities are active and vigi
lant in quarantining every case, appointing
proper guards, and adopting such mea
sures as in their judgment are best adapt
ed to arrest the spread of the contagion.
We have believed all the time, that it
would have been the safest and most
economical to erect a hospital, and our
opinion upon the subject is the same yet.
For want of space we cannot argue this
question now’, but may, if necessary, recur
to hereafter. — Oglethorpe Demon at.
•The genius of the Cleveland Plaindeaier
Fs as profound as “Seth Stockes,
who knew howto manage the
women.” Hear him:
Look out for the Women.
Young >nen! keep your eye peeled when
you are after the women. If you bite at
the naked hook, you are green. It a
pretty dress or form so attractive? or a
pretty face even? Flounces, boy, are of
no sort of consequence A pretty lace
will g<ow old. Paint will wash off.—
i he sweet smile of the flirt will give way
to the scowl of the termigant. The neat
form will he pitched into dirty calico.—
Another and a far different being will
take the place of the lovely goddess who
smiles and eats your sugar candy. The
coquette will shine in the kitchen corner,
ntid with the once sparkling eye and
beaming countenance will look daggers
at you- Beware!
Keep your eye peeled, boy, when you
are after the women. If the little dear
is cross, and scolds at her mother in the
hack room, you may be sure you will
get particular fits all around the house.—
if she blushes when found at the wash
tub, with her sleeves rolled up, he sure
that she is of the dish rag aristocracy
little breeding, and a great deal less sense.
If you marry a girl who knows nothing
hut to commit women slaughter upon the
piano, you have got the poorest piece of
music ever got up. Find one whose
mind is right, and then pitch in. Boy,
don’t he hanging round like a chicken to
the dough pile, and ask for the article
like a man.
YV asiungton, March 15.
A protracted meeting of the cabinet
was held this morning, which resulted in
directing the Secretary of State to demand
an explanation from the government of
Great Britain on the subject of the recent
intelligence from Honduras, and the En
glish ioterven'ion in behalf of the Mos
quito King. The Secretary of the Navy
was instructed to repoit forthwith to the
Executive the effective force at his dis
posal for active operations.

Change of Fortune —Less than a
decade of years ago, a person well known
in this vicinity, savs the Middletown
Whig P ress, without a dollar in his
pocket, in debt, got a subcontract of one
mile on a railroad, which he managed
“by hook or by crook,” to get through
width and clear the snug little sum of
{>sooo. Shortly after, he got another of
greater length, and cleared some $20,000.
After that he was contractor on several
roads adJing over $200,000 to his “pile.”!
Since then he has established and owns a
bank, with a capital of $90,000, has been >
elected to the Legislature of the Slate he
resides in, and at this present writing has j
heaviest railroad contrect in the United
States.
Tiie Great Line now Filled Out.—
The Legislature of Virginia has said the
Knoxville Register , incorporated a com
pany to construct a road from Lynchburg
to the District of Columbia, by means of
which there will be a continuous and di
rect line of railway from Washington City,
ihrough Virginia, to the Tennessee line
The company will, w’e have been assured ,
complete the road by the time the Vir
ginia and Tennessee and the East Ten
nessee and Virginia roads are finishedy
and then Washington City will be but a
day’s journey from Knoxville, and the
great cities of the north but a few hours
inorfi distant.
Chevalier VVikoff has been liberated
from prison at Genoa, where he was
confined on a charge of attempting to
force a young and wealthy English lady
to marry him. He has since made his
appearance in Paris. His adventures and
trials have made quite a hero of him.—
It is rumored that the Chevalier has writ
ten a history of his courtship; in the
course of which he makes all soits of re
velations.
Cal,oric Engine for the Navv.—
Captain Ericsson has made a contract
with the Navy Department to construct
for the Government a model caloric en
gine of sixty horse-power—such an en
gine as Capt. E. proposes to apply to a
screw frigate. This engine, the New
York Tribune says, is to be made forth
with and sunt to Washington to be put
tUpin the navy yard before the next meet
ing of Congress.
We have beed informed that the bagga
ge car of the passenger train which left
this city yesterday morning, when within
‘.hree miles of Columbia took fire, and
that neaily all the luggage contained there
in was destroyed. The passengers ulti
mately succeeded in extinguishing the
fire. Gov. Manning, we under stand,
barely saved a trunk containing valuable
State papers. Chas. Cour. 24/A insl.

THE board of Trustees of this Institution aie
happy in being able to announce to the public,
al it tyili commence its exercises on Monday the
7th of January, 1853, undercthe direction of an
able corps of Instructors.
The Faculty will be as follows:

Prolessor of Ancient Languages, Rhetoric, Mental
and Moral Philosophy.
* Profess >r of Cheniistry, Mo
chnnical Philosophy and Natural Sciences.

Ma'heniaiics and English branches.
Mrs Jeannette Bethune, Instructress in Histo
ry, Botany and English branch s.
Mr. Hermann Braumuller, Professor of Instru
mental and Vocal Music and the German Lan
glltt ‘O.
iVl.s. Agnes Braumuller, Instructress on the
Guitar and m the Ornamental branches.
* Instructress in the Primary
Department.
The course ot Instruction w.ll be thorough and
extensive; and moral discipline and rei.icUoDs its
strpction will constitute a prominent and charac
teristic fealuie in the exercises of the Institution. —
For the present, the Scholastic year will he divided
into Two Terms oftwenty-one weeks each. The
Institution will embrace Three Departments:
Primary—Middle and College—each Depart
ment occupying three years in its course of study,
and divided into Three Classes, each class re
quiring a year in its courae of study.
The Hates of Tuition will be

Greek (aught, if desired. When the Institution
shall have made a commencement, a Catalogue
will be published, giving a more particular account
of the Course of Study, character, aims and ad
vantages of this Seminary of learning, which we
confidently believe from the character and ability of
the Faculty will he second to none in the land. —
While thorough instruction will be given in every
Department, we will remark that the Primary De

We would simply add, that Board can be had in

CHERRY PECTORAL,
For the rapid Cure of
COUGHS, COLDS, HOARSENESS,
BRONCHITIS,WHOOPING-COUGH,
CROUP, ASTHMA, AND
CONSUMPTION.
MANY years of trial, in stead of impairing
live public confidence in this medicine, has
won for it an appreciation and notoriety by far ex
ceeding the most sanguine expectations of its friends
Nothing hut its intrinsic virtues and the unmistak
able benefit conferred on thousands of sufferers,
could originate and maintain the reputation it en
joys. While many inferior remedies thrust upon
the community, have failed and been discarded,
this ins gained friends by every trial, conferred
benefits on theafilieted they can never forget, and
produced cures too numerous and too remarkable
to be forgotten.
While it is a fraud on the public to pretend that
any one medicine will infallibly cure—still there
is abundant proof that the CriERRY Pectoral does
not only as a general ihing, but almost invariably
cure.the maladies for which it is employed.
As time makes these facts wider and better
Known, this medicine has gradually become the
best, reliance of the afflicted, frevnvt fie log-cabin of
the American Peasant, to the palaces of European
Kings Throughout this entire country, in every
S'ate, city, and indeed almost every hamlet if con
tains, Cherry Pectoral is known as the best remedy
extant for diseases of the Throat and Lungs,"and in
many foreign countries, it is coming to be extensive
ly used by their most intelligent Physician?. 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, Alms- LJonses, Pub'ic
Institutions, and in domestic practice,as ihe surest
remedy theii attending Physicians ran employ for
the more.dangerous affieeiions of the Lungs. Al
so m milder cases, and for children it is safe, pleas
ant amt effectual to cure. In fact, some of the
most flattering testimonials'we receive have been
from parents who have found it cffiisacidbs in cases
particularly incidental to childhood.
The Cherry Pectoial is manufactured by a prac
tical Chemist, and every ounce of it under his ©wn
eye, with invariable accuracy and care. It is seal
ed and protected by law from Counterfeits, conse-
j quently can be relied on as genuine withuot adul
terntion.
We have endeavored hero (o furnish the commit
nity with a medicine of such intrinsic superiority
and worth as should commend itself to their confi
dence —a remedy at once safe, speedy and effectual,
which this has by repeated end countless tnals
proved itsilflo lie; and trust by great care 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 thirl will do for them nil that medi
cine can do. Prepared and Sold by James C.
