The Weather.
t It will be seen Irom the record ot the temper
ature which we give below, that the weather
was much warmer yesterday than it has been for
several days, there being a difference of 12 de
grees between our report of yesterday and that
of this morning at 2 o'clock, P. M. We regret
to see this change, as we hoped, from the steady
declention of the thermometer, in a day or two
to announce to those who are still absent, that it
had reached the freezing point. Many have al
ready returned, and among them, some of our
physicians who have been absent, as also those
fL, other physicians who have themselves remained
but who had prudently removed their families
L, have now considered it safe to bring them once
U i more to their homes.
j While it may be safe to return, still, as we sta
■J ted in#ur remarks ofyesterday, we cannot advise
W any of our absentees to do so. We shall give
IHnf daily the temperature and they must judge for
Kl themselves in the safety of so doing.

HBbh Re-Opening.
WBg&S We have the satisfaction of announcing that
Hotels, alter undergoing a thorough renova
tion, are daily opening and most of them are now
A ready for business. The Augusta and the Globe
m have been kept open during the epidemic. The
i»» United States, under the management of Messrs.
Cbafee & Spear opened yesterday. Several im
» provements have t been made within the past
month, and it is now as comfortable a house as
can be found in this city. We had the satisfac
tion of partaking, yesterday, with its worthy
Wprietors, of something like a Game Dinner,
consisting of Wild Turkey, Squirrel Pie, &c.,
with the necessary accompaniments to wash it
B down. The worthy hosts ot the U. S. know
how to do the thing genteelly and we wish them
* a prosperous season.
k - The Planter s Hotel, under the management
* of Messrs. John Bridges and J. George lilig, will
re-open in the course of a few days. This is a
n*w building, and is handsomely furnishe.. with
and splendid Furniture. We have not much |
with Mr. lilig, but we learn he
''thoroughly understands the business he has un
dertaken. With the Imperial Bridges, we have
an acquaintance of about 20 years standing. He
is a real whole-souled clever fellow, as well as a
finished gentleman, and just the man to make a
good landlord. We feel assured that the Planter’s
Hotel, under its present management will, main
tain the well-earned reputation gained by it
while under the control of Mr. Simpson.
Fine Apples.
We are indebted to Messrs. Russell & Sibley
lor a specimen of fine northern apples, which
they have for sale. They are of fine flavor.
L Major Dorn, U. S. Indian Agent is reported
to have made treaties with the Seneca Shawnee,
and Quapaw tribes of Indians, located in what
is known as the Indian territory, for the cession
y of a greater portion of their lands to the United
ingj£| States government, so that they may be inclu
ded in the organization of the three new territo
ries proposed by the bill of Mr. Johnson, of Ar
kansas. The Senecas have only reserved one
hundred and sixty acres to each person, while
1 the Shawnees and Quapaws have reserved only
[ eighty acres to each person.
The Washington Star learns that Maj. Emo
ry, United States Mexican Boundary Commis
sioner, despatched Mr. Wheaton, one of his as
■B sistants. ahead of his main corps, so as to reach
B§|rEl Paso by the 30th of September, in order to be
in time to start the boundary survey at the date
Pfb provided for by the treaty. Information had
reached the Commissioner at San Antonio, Tex
| as, on the 15th ultimo, that Mr. W. had duly ar
\ rived at El Pasco ten days before the appointed
I time, and up to the 26th ult., no information had
1 been received of the Mexican Commissioner at
1 El Paso or Chihuahua, beyond the vague rumor
] that he and his party were hemmed in by hostile
.*• * Indians, and were awaiting additional military
Worce, and would, probably, not reach El Paso un
til November.
J The Narcotics and Poisons we Indulge in.
j —The “Chemistry of Common Life,” which is
now going through the press, states that tobacco
-:f is produced to the extent of 4,480,000 pounds
IfcnnuaUy, and is used by eight hundred millions
l»f men- Tobacco is useJ among 500,000,000 of j
mmtsn ; opium among 400,000,000 of men; Indian
Shemp, among 250,000 of men; betei-nut, (or
among 100,000,000 of men ; cocoa
t among 10,000,000 of men. Little is known in
Europe of the use of hemp as a narcotic; yet in
the East it is as familiar to the voluptuary as the
opium of other regions. The value 1
of these articles is fixed at .£60,500,000 annually
— The U. S. Circuit Court
■A at Columbus, Ohio, has just given a decision that

Drs. Wragg and Yonge returned home on
Saturday last, from Darien, where they had been
in attendance on tbe sick. We are pleased to
learn, says the Sau. Republican, from them, that
the yellow fever has entirely disappeared from
that place. The Georgian of yesterday says:
“We are informed that there was some demon- |
stration on the part of the Mayor and citizens of
Darien, when these physicians left, on which
our readers may be further informed hereafter
through our columns.”
The Wrathfr.—Yesterday, says the Sav,
Republican of Ith inat., was decidedly the most
winter-like day we have had this season — tie
air cool and chilly, and the wind blowing fresh
all day from NNE. At 9 o’clock last night the
temperature was at 51 deg., fahrenbeit, at 12
o’clock it had fallen down to 47, and at 3 o’cl’ck

Lands in Southern Georgia. —The Thom
asville Watchman, having received a letter from
j a traveller in Clinch county, descanting upon the
attractions of that hitherto neglected region of
the great State of Georgia, its editor takes occa
sion to hold forth as follows in relation to the
lands bordering on the Florida line.
“From our own knowledge of the lands in
Clinch, we feel sure that Traveller has not at
tempted to give any unfair representation. The
lands in that connty far exceed, in production,
many of those in middle Georgia, which are sel
ling at from five to ten dollars per acre. We
have but little doubt that the lands in Clinch—
indeed most of those in Southern Georgia—will
soon be found desirable for cultivation. And if
some of our Middle Georgia friends, who are cul
tivating worn out hill sides, and making from
six to ten bushels of corn to the acre, could be
induced to try the lands of Southern Georgia for
one or two years, nothing could induce them, we
think, to return back to their worn out old fields.
There are many lands here which will produce
Long Cotton, and as great a yield as some
of the best lands ot Middle Georgia will of the
Short Staple. These same lands can be had,
now, at from one to five dollars per acre. Five
years ago they could have been bought for from
fifty cents to two dollars per acre. The price is
rapidly advancing. Ten years from to-day, we
predict that many of the lands that can now be
had at from three to five dollars, will readily
bring from fifteen to twenty dollars. Until with
in a short time, most of these lands have been
thought worthless. One reason for this is, we
think, their appearance. Any one not acquain
ted with the lands in this section, and who has
been accustomed to swamp and hammock lands,
would pronounce them as worthless on looking
at them. But the way to satisfy yourself of the
fertility of the soil is, to traverse the country
while the crops are making. This would satis
fy an unprejudiced mind that the lands of South
ern Georgia are something more than gopher
hilis, and that they' will “sprout something be
sides cow-peas.”
{From the Savannah Georgian Ith tns/.]
“The Constitutional Party.”
The organization of a new party under the
above imposing and attractive title, has been
commenced in the city of Philadelphia. The
purpose of its founders, we presume, is the es
tablishment of auxiliary clubs throughout the
Union. Thus far the party is mainly compos
ed of Democrats. The organization has receiv- 1
ed the cordial approval of Mr. Dallas, in res
ponse to an enquiry as to the propriety of the
.formation of the new party. In his letter he
writes as follows :
Dear Sir .-—You have done, me the honor to
j ask a full expression of my o'piuion as to the j
j propriety and expediency of forming, and invi- '
! ting others to form, a series of “ Constitutional
: Clubs,” whose design and character may be gath- '
ered from tue same; and I hasten to answer you
with the frankness due from one well-meaning
citizen to another.
Now, I take it, that your projected “Clubs,”
resting on the broad and beneficieut platform of
Democracy, are meant to have a single eye to
the preservation of the Union—are meant to j
| foster every measure having that tendency—are I
meant to detect, expose, and resist whatever
i threatens to weaken ordisolveit—are meant, in ;
a word, to organize a power of 6imultaneons ac- i
tion, through correspondence, the press, and the
ballot-box, which will raise a rampart, at any j
and every crisis, against any and every flood, j
: however formidable, of sectional or fanatical dis- j
i union. It is in this belief that I not only ap
prove the propriety and expediency of your plan, |
but bid you cordially God speed ! w ith it.
I will not, though strongly tempted, advert to
the best practical courses for upholding the Union.
They will necessarily engage the deliberations of
the “ Clubs” when formed. But there is one
comprehensive injunction, which you will par
don me for thinking important enough, however
trite, to be repeated here —Look steadily to the
Constitution , and see that its provisions be strictly
executed. That instrument involves the being oi :
the Union. Tne Constitution violated, the
Union lingers only upon sufferance; theConsti- I
tution enforced, the Union flourishes with per- j
ennial vigor. Yes! keep to the terms of the
wisest and safest of organic structures of govern- :
ment; keep rigidly to its equality of sovereign
ties, its guaranties, its pledges, its reservation of
State rights, its generous measures of naturali
zation, its impressive prohibition of religious
legislation; keep to them as men who know on
what the interests, tranquility, freedom and
power ot the country tiuly depend, and are re
solved not to see them sacrificed or endangered
by overwrought and transitory excitements
do this through the instrumentalities you con
template starting, and you will have done the
best that private patriotic citizens can do to per
petuate the glorious Union.
! These we take it, are sound and wise views.
Any party whose purpose is to maintain them,
deserves much more favor than it is likely to re
ceive from the anti-slavery and high federalsen
timentof northern states. Our lears lor the fu
ture therefore lead us to prophesy a failure of tbe
new movement: though well contented to wit
ness its success.
For the present we are satisfied with the Dem
ocratic party and its doctrines, as carried cut in
the administration of Gen. Pierce. If, howev
er, any of our friends, Whigs or Democtats, are
resolved to try their hands at new organization,
we would commend to their most favorable at
tention, the ''Constitutional Clubs;” understand
ing ot course that their purposes and principles
are those suggested by Mr. Dallas.
GEORGIA STATE FAIR!
Further Postponement.
In order to allow the Citizens of Au
gusta time to make ample preparations for
the coming Exhibition, the Executive
Committee of the “Southern Central Agri
cultural Society” have finally concluded
to postpone the Fair until the first Mon
! day in December.
Therefore, the people of Georgia and
the adjoining States are respectfully noti
: fied that the Ninth Fair of the Society
! will positively be held at Augusta, on
MONDAY, DECEMBER 4TH, 1854,
in accordance with the Rules a»d Regula
j tions heretofore published. A full Pro
gramme arffl Order of Arrangements will

|£r* Tbe Press, throughout this and the adjoin
! ing States, are earnestly requested to give this
notice'the widest possible circulation, and thus aid
1 the glorious cause of Agricultural, Mechanical and
artistic progress in the South.
D. W. LEWIS, Secretary.

Cotton.—The market is firm. Sales, 3000

Corn is duller.
Yellow Fever.
The deaths for the past week by Yellow Fe

Population of Mexico.—According to the
j latest census of the population of the Republic
of Mexico, which we find published in the last
Mexican papers, the entire number of inhabi
tants is 7,853,395. There are, in the Republic,
85 cities and towns; 193 large villages, 4,709
| villages; 119 communities and missions; 175
! haciendas or estates ; 6,092 farms and hamlets.
j Practical vs. Theoretical Abolionism.—
A young colored boy went to a white school in
Boston, the other day, and quietly took his seat
among the pale faces there. The boy, however,
after a day or two, was ejected on account of is
1 crispy head and ebon skin. Whereupon the
father sued the city for damages. The boy
and his parent*, are lighter in color than many
i white persons, the boy, however, appearing
! slightly the darkest. On the trial it was shown
that the parents were white; while for tbe
government Dr. Steadman, as an expert, w'as ot
opinion that the boy was one-sixth African; and
Dr. Clerk, tbe City Physician, fixed the color at
one-eighth. The Court instructed the Jury in
; accordance with the decision of the Supreme
j Court in the case of Roberts, that the school
| committee may establish seperate schools, and
that the question rested solely upon theeviden e
of color. A verdict was given in favor of the
i city. _
Sad Disappointment. —The Boston Journal
of Wednesday says :
Last evening at 7 o’clock, that being the ap-
I pointed time for the ending of all sublunary
L things, according to tbe Millerite belief, some for
tv[ot the believeis in that doctrine assembled at
the corner of Fou tb and C. streets, South Bos
ton, arrayed in white robes, and anxiously
awaited the moment when they should make
j their grand ascension. Whether they are still'
I waiting we know not, but they were certainly
disappointed in their expectations of “going up’.’
last evening.
New York Money Market.
The Journal of Commerce of Thursday evening
says:
The market is unsettled, and rates of interest
are quite irregular. Prime business paper is
scarce, owing chiefly to the contraction in all
kinds of business, while second and third class
signatures sell very slowly, and at high rates.—
The bankers are continuing their stringent
course, ami thus nearly ali the borrowers are driv
en into the street. We stated over a month
since our conviction of the fact, that the pressure
i would continue up to the time that cotton bills
| should become plenty, and we see no reason to
alter that opinion. The cotton market of this
country are higher than the foreign, and the
| planters being much less pressed for money this
| season than the traders and capitalists of the
j North, may not conclude so sell at a price that
will warrant immediate shipments. Some biils
have come forward from New Oi leans and Mo
bile, and the low rates of freight are favorable to
continued exports. The large amount expended
| by the governments of France and England lor
the maintenance of the war, so far as they are
j distributed within the limits ot those countries,
: will not produce any disastrous commercial
j stringency abroad; but if the dispute is much i
j longer protracted, the resources of this country
must be further drawn upon by shortening and
I limiting credit, and by forcing upon us a larger
stock of merchandise than we should otherwise
purchase. The radical difficulty in the way of
our prosperity will be removed, however, it Eu
rope will take our cotton crop and pay a fair
price for it.
Foreign Exchangers very dull; no' one ap
| pears to have any money so invest in foreign
I bills. Even the bankers who have to provide
I for their letters of credit, do not take hold eager -
| ly. Bills on London, 109j109|. with good sig
natures as low as 109|. Paris 5.15a5.125.
The Press and its Privileges —ln all of
; our places of amusement, arid on all our railroad
! and steamboat lines, there is, and long has been.
a free4ist—that is, a list o: persons who pass free
I of charge—which, owing to various causes, has
grown inconveniently large. Os this, the news
paper press is generally tnide to bear the respon
sibility, and many persons unacquainted with
tbe true state of the case, are apt to form very ;
erroneous notions of the character and conduct j
of newspaper editors and proprietors, a large 1
nnmber of whom do not covet the piivilege so j
i generously offered them, and seldom avail them- i
| solves of it. When, recently, the representatives !
' of the four great railroad routes to the West j
j agreed to put a stop to the free list, it was at !
J once supposed that this was a blow w hich would j
fall severely upon tbe press How true this is, \
j is gathered from the fact proved by an investi- 1
gation on the New York and Erie Railroad,
that ot the great number of persons who pass free
over that work, the regular fare of whom would
pay the company $160,000 per annum, less than 1
one in ajiuudred are or have been, members of j
press. A similar investigation
on tbe New York and New Haven*Railroad,
shows that of 8174 free passes, only sevtH y-five
were given to members of the press. It will
thus be seen that the newspapers are not proper
ly responsible for this abuse of the free pass sys- I
tern. The passes are given to legislators, mu- j
mc'.pai and other local authorities, and public i
character, directors, hotel keepers, etc ; and for '
ail the favors extended to the press, it recipro- j
cates a hundred tow i n the publicity it gives to 1
all matters pertaining v=. the travelling routes, or j
places of amusement. If managers wish to re
trench their free list, as it is ve. v proper they j
should, tbe press should not be made *he scape- '

A Warning.—Delay not; harbor
notin your mind that sentence of fool’s
philosophy, that a disease will get well of itself,or
that you can cure it with certain medicines for a
few dollars. Beware how you tamper with your
• general welfare.
Ye wild and vicious youths, why will ye persist
in dosing with the filthy, nauseating compounds
daily proffered, thereby impairing your appetite
and digestion, and destroying you mentally as well
as physically, when you can be cured with a few
doses of pleasant medicines 7
Ye rakes of every age and condition, why will
ye suffer and repine and drag out a miserable ex
istence, unfitted for the enjoyment and oven ordi
nary pursuits of life? You who are thus annoyed,
and wish to bo restored to health and vigor by a
treatment at once pleasant and effectual, should
consult Dr. Morris. His success in chronic dis
eases has boen greater than that of any other phy
sician of his day. Many who have been for years
afflicted with disease or consequences resulting
from excess have been restored to health and vigor
under his really scientific treatment.
Should a personal interview be objectionable,
state your disease in writing—enclose five dollars
—address Dr. W. H. Morris, through the Posts
Office, Nashville, Tenn., and a package of Medi
cines, securely put up, will be sent privately, and
with dispaDch, full directions therewith, and no
questions asked.
Persons living at a distance, and afflicted with
Scrofula, Old Ulcers, Tetter Cancers, Piles, Fistula
In Ano, Gravel, Strictures, Gleets, or any disease
iwhatever of an aggravated or mallgnantcharacter,
can be cured at home by consulting Dr. Morris,
by letter, post paid, enclosing a fee. Theso Medi
cines. pleasant and safe, can be sent per mail to any
part of the United States.
Particular attention given to the treatment ol
female complaints. Ladies who may be afflicted
with irregularities, Flour Albus or Whites, Pro
lapsus Uteri or Falling of the Womb, would do
well to lay aside all false delicacy, and promptly
consult tho Doctor. Cures Warranted.

Liver Pills,—The Liver Pill» of
Dr. M’Lanf, were first used by him ex
clusively in his own practice. So efficacious wore
they in all cases of Liver complaint, that they be
came famous, and attracting the attention of the
medical faculty, passed into general use. They act
with great certainty and regularity; the pationt
almost immediately feels the dispersion of his dis
ease, and i a gradually restored to health. With
some the effect is almost miraculous, frequently ex
periencing immediate relief, after having for months
resorted to drugs and medicines of another descrip
tion, in vain. Diseases of tho Liver are very com
mon in this country, and are often frightful in
character. Those who experience any of the pre
monitory symptoms of this dangerous and compli
cated disease, shomld at opce procure a box of Dr.
M’lane’s Pills, and perhaps, thereby.be saved a
world of misery.
Q2?"Purcha;3er3 will be careful to ask for Dr.
M’Lane's Celebrated Liver Pills, and take none
else. There are other Pills, purporting to be Liver
Pills, now before the public. Dr. M Lane’s Liver
Pills, alone hisDelebrated Vermifuge, can now be
had at all respectable Drug Stores in the United
States and Canada.

living at Beaver Dam, Hanover county, Va., near

most of tho time he had chills twice a day, and
rarely less than once; he was parched with* fevers
