Opening ilisputcb. APGUSTA.GA: fSntnrtlaj Evening, March 5i7, * BSB, Delay. We did not receive our Charleston papers of yesterday, outil 11 o clock *o-day. African Al>l'«" ,,ce Syutem. We have said that we are glad to know of the movement making in Lou iiiana and in other,States, to procure a supply of labor from Africa. In saying j this, however, we took occasion to re i mark that we cannot approve of thej apprentice system. We rejoice at the movement only because it indicates that the people of the South are waking to an appreciation of the necessity for a snpply of cheaper labor, if they intend to retain their monopoly in the pro duction of our great staples, and if they ] intend to prevent the influx of free labor; to those lands adapted to Southern planting. In the present State of the law upon the “importation of such persons as any of the States may think proper to ad i mit," there can be no doubt that the! importation of negroes from Africa to serve a stipulated term of years would be quite legal. But a Constitutional 1 power over this matter is wholly in Congress. It is not to be expected that the elements of opposition which would resist the regular revival of the African r Slave Trade, will not exert themselves immediately, and to their utmost, to 1 •rush in its inception anything which 1 ieems likely to advantage the South, or oppose the march of Northern myriads 1 *pon Southern ground. The enemies of •lavery have in this Union both power and will, to circumvolate the South, | j to cut off her resources, to prevent her: { deveiopement, destroy her political in J > dependence, and reduce her to a pro | vince, paying tribute to Northern mas-! 1 tere, as the price of a miserable exis- j fence. So long as the Slave States t .hoose to maintain their present con- < nection with the Free States, so long J -they will purchase that connection by t the sacrifice of every interest, which a mob-majorities may conceive to clasli 1 with their own interest. 1 Our first objection, then, to the ap- ( prentice system, is, that it isiinpractica- 1 We. The battle to be fought over this ‘ subject would be no less difficult than ( the battle for the Slave Trade proper.— I If we can win victory in a contest for ' the one, we can in a struggle for the ‘ other. The demon of fanaticism can i raise no more hideous howl against 1 the trade than against the apprentice ship. Therefore, if it he acknowledged that we need a snpply of labor, which few have the hardihood to deny, and if we arc settled in our purpose to have it, let us have the best kind, in the best way, seeing the price is certainly to be no more for the good than for the ob- , jectionable. We don’t care how many companies are chartered by State governments to -import apprentices, there is no earthly 1 chance to land a hundred negroes. Ab- 1 olitionism, Black Republicanism, and free labor will take alarm before the first shipload can reach our ports, and ' Congressional prohibition will be hurled agaiust the system. The Federal Exe cutive, who will kidnap the President! ' of a neutral and friendly Republic. | would hesitate at no step, however war ' ranted by law, to strike a death blow at the project. If we are going to be supplied with the labor we need, let the •bannels through which that labor •ooraes to us be protected by the whole tee of the whole land. Our preference is to have our wants supplied under the protection of the flag of the Union, or under the flag of a Southern confcdera-1 oy, rather than stealthily and without j protection. It requires no argument | to maintain the proposition that th<- traffic in labor am never be profitable or satisfactory in any light, if prosecu ted under the law. and subject to the attacks of federal legislation. There must be a change in the laws of thej land. The naval force now used to de prive us of the necessary labor must be turned to the protection ami assistance •f a commerce in negroes. But even if the apprentice system were practicable, we have another insupera ble objection to its introduction among us, and that is because it will be neces sarily inhumane in its tendencies, giv ing the negroc no just compensation for his labor. We arc the advocates of Southern slavery because we believe it is founded in moral right and expressly o dained in the law of God, and because j we know that it benefits both master j and slave, by supplying to each that; without which he would sutler. No! amount of advantage to the master! would in our eyes commend the institu-l tion, did we fail to perceive equal or greater benefits resulting to the slave. * In the apprenticeship we see no good to the negro. Bound to serve for a limited ti ne. there will be a constant temptation to the master to work him to the utmost limit of endurance, and human nature will yield to temptation as well in the South as in the virtuous lamfs of Abolitionism and British tyran ny. “Lead us not into temptation ’’ is a prayer which includes all others, and should be at the foundation of all law. • Under the present system of slave la- j bor the master has inducement to pro- j long the life and guard the health of his slave, that he may increase the mar-j ket value and realize the greatest profit | from his labor; under the apprentice ship the master will be tempted to solve this problem ; the greatest amount of labor, within the given term at the least cost, and its solution will I deprive the negro of abundant and ' wholesome food, of warm clothing, of 1 rest, of care in sickness, and will de ; maid of him such labor that there will j be no strength left when his term of ser vice has expired. We now take it for ! granted that he is to be turned loose at i (he expiration of his term, for we know. ! that the true friends of slavery arc too I honest to steal negroes even after they have been apprentices. Thus, at the end of his time, the apprentice would be in danger of being turned loose, ruin ed in body and unimproved in morals, a burden to himself and a pest to society, to corrupt those who might be in ser vice. We can easily see how those who have villified the institution, speaking only lies of Southern Slavery, misrep resenting it in every particular, with no regard to truth,or justice to the master, may oscillate to the other extrme, and show as little regard for the rights of the negro. We expect all this from the British Government, but we do not ex pect it from Southern planters. Let us re-open the African Slave Trade because it is right in theory and , practice, but let us oppose always the apprentice system, because it will be worthless, and totally wrong in princi (ile and practice. * Oozing Out. The Chronicle Sr Sentinel, of this morn ing, alluding to the alleged danger of a dissolution of the Union from the “Kansasbubble” says: > The demagogues and political knaves i who sprung it upon the country, for the . purpose of agitation and to make polit ical capital, are now well understood by ’ the great mass of the intelligent men t of the nation, and they will be power- , less for evil, however the Lecompton Constitution may be disposed of. True, 1 these tricksters may attempt to get up t an excitement, and to lash the people c into a sort of political furor, but so far as the South is concerned, they will not 1 be able to muster a corporals guard to c dissolve the Union upon any such issue, r Intelligent men of all parties have be come thoreughly disgusted with the 3 whole matter, aud are perfectly indiffer- ' ent whether the Lecompton Constitu- s tion is adopted or rejected by Congress —so far as any good may result to the South is concerned. The only reason * why the masses desire the adoption of ( the Lecompton Constitution, is the hope 1 they indulge that the question may be 1 localised by being transferred to the s limits of Kansas for the adjudication of 1 its people ; and this is the general feel ing of the people, the masses of the in telligent men of botli parties at the : South. ' We had imagined that there were a few “intelligent men” in all parties , who regarded the fate of the Lecompton 1 Constitution important on account of j its connection with the great issue made ! by the enemies of the South, that no more slave states are to be admitted , into tire Union ; and who regard the • rejection of Kansas under tiie Lecornp- ' ton Constitution as a palpable violation of the Georgia Platform. We have , thought there ware intelligent men? i and firm men, who meant what they said in adopting that instrument as the , ultimatum of the South on that subject, 1 and who would not ignominiously back down when an issue presented itself, , however that issue be complicated by demogogues and cowardly tricksters.— J We cannot account for the course the ! politicians or the masses may pursue in such a contingency, but it is very i evident if we yield patiently to such a| : result, that the North will very soon I' have good cause to pronounce us a sec- j ; tion of blusterers, threateners and ; submissionists, ready to bear just what | they please to heap upon us. If the re fusal to admit Kansas under the Le compton Constitution is r.ot a violation of the Georgia platform we would like to jbe informed by some of those who helped to make it, what they meant by ! the Fourth resolution. We were silly enough to adopt in good faith, and we intend to remain true to it, if we can find a corporal’s guard to keep us com pany. . »*•-- ——— Georgia Items. A short time ago a lad, a son of Wm. ; ! I). Lumpkin, resident near Lafayette Ga., | rode out upon a wild colt. After he | had been absent a short while, the •I horse returned without him. Search : being made for him. immediately, he j was found in a state of insensibility, his | skull being broken. He was taken j home and revived, and it is now thought ! that he may recover. We learn that some weeks ago a | youth by the name of Paine, going to j school in Lafayette, Ga., was stabbed in ! the abdomen by a school 'note by the j name of Hunt, and badly injured. J kßsk M Haralson, of Newton coun ty, was convicted on Wednesday, df burglary. Geo. Walker and Kkmp plead guilty. The Judge had not passed sentence when the Typr went to press. Rev. R. L. Brkck, Pastor of the Pres-1 byterian Church of Macon, has resigned j his charge and will leave immediately j for Kentucky. < Gen. John H. Rick, has sold his intc- j rest in the Cauville Stanford, and sur- 1 rendered the quill editorial, to Mesßre. ! | B. 11. Leaks and B. F. Bennett, the lat i ter of whom has been for a long time j connected with the paper as Publisher, j There are. at this time, white and ! black, seven tenants in the Greene coun ty prison—four whites and three blacks Two of the negroes are to be executed on the 80th of next month. The Judge refused to grant a new trial in the case of Green Martin, foi the murder of his negro boy, and he has been sentenced to-be lmug on the 7th of May. The case is, however to be carried to the Supreme Court, which sits jn Savannah in June, and Ijence the execution will be postponed. The SjHtrla Georgian says that a ne gro woman belonging to Prof. Sasnett was brought to Jail last week under charge of attempting to poison the over seer, Mr. Hartwell Scott and his wife, with blue stone. They discovered it in their coffee. This is not the first case that has occurred in that county of sim ilar character, aud that paper justly re. marks that “planters should be careful in using blue stone with their wheat, (now a common practice) as it affords evil disposed slaves to get in their pos session a virulent ptfision. •.«.*- — Italnlirhlge Argus. This excellent newspaper comes to us much enlarged, and arrayed in a new suit, looking as bright and sparkling as its own charming Woodbine. We wish Mr. Russell the widest success, for he deserves it. Miss Mary E, Keen, of Thomasville, and Miss Annie R. Blount, of this city, are associated in its Litera ry department, and we are pleased to learn that the Argus is getting a large list of subscribers in Ibis city. Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. Gwinnett Co., March 25th, 1858. Messrs. Editors I must plead ab sence from home as my excuse for not replying sooner to the Athens Banner, “Harts Horn" and “W.,” in the Chron. icle Sr Sentinel. I will not take the time to reply to “W.,” but most respectfully i refer him to the remarks made by the < editor Os the Chronicle Sr Sentinel to his i own, and ask him, or some one else connected with Franklin College, to make a statement through the Dispatch, or any other Augusta paper, of the number of students in the Institution, at present, and also the number that have disconnected themselves with it since the Ist of January last. I, by no means, wish a newspaper * controversy with the Banner, or any ' one else, but in reply to the communi cation ill the Banner, headed “Franklin , College—Model Correspondent,” I will state again, as I did in my former com- 1 munieation, that I was in Athens, Feb. I 27th, and saw, with many others, near the Lanier House, the Auctioneer sell ing books, furniture, etc., to the high est bidder, and on my making the in quiry whose property was selling and for what cause, I was informed by two or three gentlemen near the Auctioneer, that it belonged to some of the College boys who were selling off preparatory to going home. But whether they gradu ated, as the Banner w ould have us be lieve, I did not learn. If we were to take the statements, made by the Ban ner as facts, every student who leaves the College, if he but goes in at one door and gets kicked out at the other, is a graduate of Old Franklin. Now for facts and figures. Take the different statements made, under the eave droppings of Old Franklin, by the Banner, “Harts Horn” and “1V.,” and we will very readily see they do not cor respond as to the number of students left since the Ist of January last. The Banner says but two have left, “Harts Horn” says only one, and “W.” not one.” Now, I call upon the three sage de fenders of Old Franklin to say who is in error. When Doctors disagree, who is, &c.? 11l the communication in the Banner, above referred to, it says: “ If, on the ether hand, his hope ‘this is not true,’ really meant (as it some times does) ‘1 am glad of it,' why all we have to say to ‘Buck Horn,’ is, that lie has over shot the mark this time, and that his j attempt to injure the College, can be ' very easily neutralized by a simple statement of the truth as obtained from those who know‘whereof they speak.’” , I was as far from being glad that such rumors, as the above, were afloat in Athens, or elsewhere, as the Banner or “Harts Horn,” and take as much pride in our State and private Institu tions as any one iu the State. If “those who know whereof they speak,” will speak out through the press, giving us the facts and figures, 1 presume the public will be satisfied, and I know I will, if the College is in as flourishing a condition as “Hart Horn” I says. j “It (Franklin College) lias prospects I the reverse of what ‘Buck Horn' sup poses,” says “Harts Hors." I should like very much to know, and I*gucss others outside of Athens would too, wiiat those “prospects” were. Some departments are conducted, says “H. II ,” by iiicu of extraordinary abil ity and and talent, if only some are so |conduct,'il,.l would like for him togive pis an idea how the others are con .! ducted. I 1 understand from Judge Hutchins that I was mistaken in stating that he Iliad received a Court Calendar from I ;Clark County, and 1 m, ke the amende honorable. As ever.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR j [*iaL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach ' has lost the power of duly converting food into a i life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric , fluid re acquires it? solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to (ho sufferer, while his digestive organization was paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the , wholesome revolution created in the system, the , basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tie-doloreux or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter ‘ rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with ; paralysis, , borne down and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of nervous energy, or experiencing any other paiu or disability arising from the unnatural condition of the wonderful machinery which connects cv- I ery member with the source of sensation, mo . tion and thought—derives immediate benefit i ■ from the use of this Cordial, which atoncecalms, • invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous I organization. Females who have tried It are unanimovs in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that j woman has ever received from tlie ha r ds of | medical men. ; Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im j mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite, j While it renews the strength of the digestive j powers it creates a desire for the solid material which is to be subjected to their action. As an j appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. j If long life and the vigor necessary to its en j joy men t are desirable, this medicine is indeed of j precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to either sex or to any ago. The feeble girl, the ailing 1 wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn : man of business, the victim of nervous depres sion, the individual suffering from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ •win all find immediate and pormonent relief from ] I tho use of this incomparable rcuovator. To J those who have a predisposition to paralysis it ‘ will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible milady. There are many 1 j perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- j ! tion that they think themselves beyond the reach \ !of medicine. Let not even those despair.
