(Hinting J)isj)atc|. AUGUSTA.GA: Friday Evening, April *4, IS3B. Revivals. The Unitarians, the Boston Traveler. says, are holding revival meetings in the' city and it is said they Believe in them. Bevivals, or protracted meetings, were first inaugurated by the primitive Meth odists, both in England and in this] country, and the custom is still kept up. This sect claims for such assem blages the result of much good. The 1 fact that mo6t other denominations in the United States have of late years adopted this practice, is a good argil- 1 ment of their efficacy. (■eorgin Items. The Dalton Times says that wheat in that section is lookingremarkably prom ising. The same paper says that there is no abatement in the religious feeling manifested for some weeks in that town. Indeed it seems that there can , scarcely any be found in the town, who arc not undei serious impressions. Ma ny have professed conversion, and from all we can discover, are proving their, faith by their works. Messrs. Wimbeklt & Mukpbey willj commence, at an early day, thepubli-i cation of a new weekly sheet, at Bain-! 1 bridge, Decatur county, Ga., under the j title of the Southern Georgian. The Rev. Adam T. Holmes, formerly! of Georgia, but recently of Alabama, j has accepted a call to the Pastoral' Charge of the Ist Baptist Church of; Atlanta, IT Tha Savannah Republican says, an j inquest was held yesterday, at the house of Mr. D. S. Daniels, in that city, on ■the body of Mr. William H. Robbins. ; pilot on board the steamship Florida, j who was found dying in the street, un der circumstances that exclude all doubt! that he was brutally murdered. When I last seen, the deceased was leaving the j bar-room of Dennis Holland, at the] corner of Habersham street and Bay] lane, about 7 o’clock p. m., and pro- ! ceeding up the stieet in the direction of j his residence. The investigation of the Coroner’s; jury developed no facts that give a satis-, factory cluo to the perpetrator of the horrid deed. The circumstances clearly ] indicate that the fatal blow was first; given, and the victim then tumbled j over the wall, a distance of some-twenty] feet to give the affair the appearance of) an accident. The deceased, leaves a family consist- j ing of a wife and one child, who reside ] in the city. The Mayor and Society of the Sons of Malta,haveoffered a reward of SI,OOO fort the detection of the murderer. »•*— The Decree of King Calhoun. The Washington States, a friend in j the interest and service of Seriatoi j Douglas and his “ Anti-Lecompton ’’; purposes, makes the following assertion in reference to the statement that Gen. Calhoun was induced to give the ccrtifi cutes of * cr i vo« Rtutc jmrty in Kansas, by the influences and promi ses of Abolitionists: Senator Iverson, from Georgia, thinks differently. In a speech denunciatory! of Calhoun’s course, he is reported to have said : “1 thing it was an act of usurpation on the part of Mr. Calhoun to adopt this step, and I have regretted exced ingly to understand—l do not vouch for the truth of it that this step has been taken on the advice of Southern members of Congress ” The Senator ought also to have stated that others in high position from the] South recommend this policy. A “ Duck ” of » Wife. Mr. John Smith, who vegetates some-j where 11 out West”—of course, to make! thing readable, the icene must be loca-j ted either in California or the West— has a " duck " of a wife, and no mis take. John, as is stated, went off for a day or two on a little bit of a “ lark, ” when his sweet Henrietta, in the full ness of her anguish, caused the follow ing “ ad. ” to he inserted in the local paper : ‘‘ Lost, Strayed, or Stolen. —An individ-, ual whom I, in an unguarded moment of loneliness, was thoughtless enough] to adopt as my husband. He is a good looking and feeble individual, knowing) enough, however, to go in when in i rains, unless some good-looking girl of | fers her umbrella. Answers to the name of Jim.

A Haw against the Use of CamplieneJ In the New York Assembly Mr. Moore j has introduced a bill designed to pre-| vent the sale or use of destructive com positions in the State; it prohibits the] manufacture, sale or use, for the pur ] pose of producing light or heat, of any camphcne, spirit gas, phosgene, burning fluid, or any liquid of a spirituous or explosive nature, under the penalty of one hundred dollars for each offence for itr manufacture or sale, and ten dollars for each offence for its use. Special Correspxmdence of the Dispatch. Northeastern Georgia. Messrs. Editors There is perhaps no section of country that lias been pressed by the foot of civilization, the resources and beauties of which have been so much overlooked and underval ued as that section known as North ; eastern Georgia, comprised in the coun ties of Hal!, Habersham, Madison, El ; bert, Ilart and Franklin. Tiicse coun ties, diversified as they are with majes j tic mountains, fertile valleys, stately i forests, rippling brooks, bounding rivers, j and medicated springs, are perhaps less j i known to the traveling public than any ] ! other portion of our glorious old State j And it seems if to the attractions of Ta j lula and Tocoa Falls, the ruins of Nine -1 veh.or the city of Mecca,could be added, j neither the poetry inspiring sublimity j of the one,nor tlxe devotional reverence j for the other would induce a pilgrimage i to our delightful region. But as the object of this letter is to j lay before your readers a description of this highly favored portion of God’s heritage, its resources, its past history, and its future prospects—and as this letter is intended as “number one” of a series, should the subject meet your ap probation—l shall confine myself to a few words descriptive of Franklin coun ty, which, though one of the oldest in the State, yet from its peculiar local po sition, is less developed than many coun ties which cannot boast an antiquity of a half a score of years. At least four fifths of her vast domain still remains in primeval forest. A material error ex ists in the maps of Georgia in regard to the amount of territory embraced within the limits of Franklin county.— It is laid down on the modern maps of the State as being 26 miles in length by 25 in breadth. This is a material error as every one knows who is at all conver sant with the couuty and its boundaries. From Carnesville, which is (or was be fore a portion of the county was cut off !to Hart) near the centre of the coun ! ty, to the northern boundary, it is 25 ] miles by the nearest traveled route— i while its eastern limit, as the bounda ' ries now stand, is eleven miles from the same place, and its width is one-! third greater than represented on the j maps. To an observing mind it is only ; necessary to glance at a map of Frank lin county to determine its character and agricultural resources. Checkered I as it is with large streams, having their i j sources in the spurrs of the Blue Ridge, ! and Curahee Mountains, and flowing ; through the full length of the coun- I ty, they afford a large amount of rich j and productive bottom lands, capable ! of yielding a sustencnce for ten times j its present population, while her up- ] j lands will compare favorably with those ; lof any other portion of the State. The j ! present population of Franklin county j ■ is a hardy, hospitable race of people, j who, surrounded by an abundance of all j the necessaries of life, without a motive ! to prompt them to further action, luxu- j riate in the abundant production of their soil, and with mere nominal labor manage to keep themselves from want, J and have wasted enough in the last ten j years to have afforded themselves all; the facilities that have been extended ! to less favored portions of the State. — J The products of the county are of such a ] bulky character that it costs one-third ; of their market value to gather them to j market by the ordinary means of con-1 vevance. But a re-action lias taken! place in the minds of the people of this ■ county, and it appears that they would even dare keep pace with this fast age. ! The school master is abroad, and with ] the pedagogue comes knowledge, and ; ] with knowledge, enterprise. Six years j ! ago there was not a classical school ! within her borders, when the Masonic Fraternity united and erected an Acadc my at Phi Delta and placed it under the supervision of the Lodge at that place ; since which time the log school house has rapidly given place to the I neat framed building, and classical! teachers are usurping the place of the i pretending ignoramus, and nearly every j neighborhood in the county is supplied with a good and prosperous school: at many of which a boy can be prepared for any class in College. Amongst the j foremost of these schools stands the old Phi Delta Academy, now under the charge of Wm. H. Cocroft, Esq.,a grad uate of Mercer University, and an able 1 and efficient instructor. Long may this institution stand as a monument to the noble Order who erected it, and may future generations point to the sput and say there is the hill upon the which the genius of science first erected her stand ard in Franklin county, and which serv i od to awaken an interest in the cause of education. I have learned, by a six years’ sojourn with the people of Frank- lin county, that they possess sound heads and honest hearts. Give them competent schools, to which they have already commenced to help themselves ; give them ingress and egress by rail road ; give them convenient markets, let them see that it is in their power to accomplish important undertakings, and North-eastern Georgia must, in a few years, become the garden spot of the Empire State of the South. These people, though heretofore not only overlooked and neglected in the legis lation of the State, but actually down trodden and taxed to afford facilities to less favored portions of the State, have, at length, waked up from the Rip Van Winkle lethargy, and have de termined to keep pace with this fast age, by opening a communication with the civilized world. A Railroad is now in progress of being built from Atlan ta, Ga.. to Anderson C. H., South Caro lian, which will enter this county at its South-west corner, and passing by, or or near Bushville and Carnesville, and will pass out at the North-east corner of the county, giving this county near fifty miles of railroad. To the con struction of this Road, the citizens of this county have nobly come forward andsubscribcdslso,ooo, and by the time tlie Road is completed through the county, they will hold, at least, S2OO,- 1 ; 000 of the capital stock of the Com- 1 1 pany. The construction of this (the 1 Georgia Air Line Railroad) will, in all < | probability, create a necessity oil the 1 I part of the Georgia Railroad Company, 1 [of extending the Athens Brandi to Ra- i bun Gap, which will give another line I of Railroad through North-eastern Geor- ’ gia, thus making several apertures, 1 through which modern civilization ca.) ! shine into our benighted region. So, ( Mr. Editor, you need not be surprised, ' if I should inform you, in my next let- * ter. that our rosy cheeked mountain ! belles have gotten a peep atclvilization, s and have donned hoop skirts and small < bonnets. D. G. C. 1 Phi Delta, Ga., March 24, 1858. >.«.* ] lion. Joshua Hill. The American Representative of the j 7th District of this State addressed the | House on Monday the 24tli ult. on tiie ] Kansas question, and signified his de- | termination to vote for the Kansas bill < of tbc Senate. We find the following : brief sketch of his remarks in the Na- i lional Intelligencer of the 30tli ult: ] Mr. Hill, of Georgia, addressed the ’ committee. If left to himself he should • say nothing on the Kansas question, but he felt bound to express the views of his intelligent and high spirited con stituency. The evil of the day, in his judgment, was the blind, intolerant * party spirit which pervades the land.— i Dear as his party organization was, lie would abandon it if it should ever at tempt tyrannically to dictate his course. * The year 1854 found the country in < ! peace, but in an evil hour he feared the Democratic party came to the conclu ] sion that it was necessary to organize ] certain Territories. At best this was a , premature measure, but the gravest error was the determination to repeal the Missouri compromise, a measure de- s manded and required by nobody. This 1 was at first opposed by the democratic party, and even denounced by the Washington Union as a Wiiig trick. Ho was not an advocate of the Missouri re striction ; on the contrary, lie always , regarded it as extra-constitutional; hut nothing was to lie gained by its repeal. , which disturbed the public tranquility and renewed sectional agitation. He deprecated the course of partisan papers in dencuncing Senators Critten j den, Bell, and Douglas, who had, in his opinion, only acted from conscientious convictions and patriotic motives, al though he differed from their conclu- - sions. He then alluded to events in Kansas territory. He was satisfied that i the Lccompton Convention was legally i constituted, and had power to form ; such a Constitution as they saw fit; and < that the Lecompton Constitution was legal and regular. Intrinsically he saw i ] nothing in that instrument to complain i ! of. The convention had power either ]to submit tho whole instiument, or a 1 part of it, or to withhold the whole. It I was the wisest course to stop this mise- j (ruble agitation by admiring Kansas un j der the Lecompton Constitution ; and j | then let the people of Kansas amend it j las they pleased. He had no sympathy ] witli either of the great political parties ! botli of which were opposed to the prin ciples which he cherished. In conclu j sicn, he appealed to northern men to , treat the South with fairness and jus tice, to cease their unjustifiable assaults ] upon their institutions.

Augusta Ga THE LATEST NEWS. BY TELEGRAPH Congressional. Washington, April I.—ln the Senate to-day the army bill was passed, but with a substitute for two instead of four regiments, exclusive of that desig nated for Texas. In the Senate, the Kansas bill was re- 1 ceived as amended and passed by the House. Mr. Green moved to disagree to the amendments, and this motion will be considered to-morrow. In the House, Mr. Stephens had scarcely moved that the Kansas bill should be taken up, when Mr. Giddings objected to its second reading. In such cases, the rule requires that the ques tion shall be taken. On the rejection to this disagreement, the vote stood, yeas 95, to nays 137. Mr. Quitman of fered as a substitute to the Senate bill, with the exception of Pugh and Green’s proviso, declaring that the people of Kansas have therightjto alter and amend their Constitution. This amendment was defeated by a vote of 72 infavor of, to 160 against it. The vote was then ta ken on Crittenden’s amendment as a substitute, which was further amend ed by the anti-Lecompton portion of Democrats in the late conference.— j The amendment wws carried by eight majority. The bill as amended by the House j provides for the admission of Kansas, j but refers the Constitution back to the people for their votes. If the Constitu tion is rejected, a Convention is to be j called to form a Constitution.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR- j , i DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach [ . J has lost the power of duly converting food into a j ! I life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single \ course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric j iluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude t nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to I the sufferer, while his digestive organization was ! paralyzed aud unstrung, becomes, under the j wholesome revolution created in the system, the I basis of activity, strength and health, i The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the | acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-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 pain or disability arising from the unnatural condition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it arc unanimous in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the hands of medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite. While it renews the strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid materia! which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. j If long life and the vigor necessary to its en-! j joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of' precious worth J Its beneficial effects are not confined to either ’ I sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing « i wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn j I man of business, the victim of nervous depres- j I sion, the individual suffering from general do-' j bility or from the weakness of a single organ ! i will all find immediate and permanent relief from j | the use of this incomparable renovator.

We take it lor granted, as experiment has prr. i ven that diseases of the lungs are not generally - tbo first cause of consumption, but a debilitated 3 system, caused by the improper action of the | liver, which reduces the power of the lun.s to *, resist or throw off diseases caused by cold and e irritation, leaving the lungs at the mercy of this , disease, becauso the liver has incapacitated them from performing their proper action ts is throwing off diseased matter caused by cold. II Thus-to prevent consumption, cure the liver and keep the system strong enough to throw off 18 slight diseases ol the lungs. There Is not in the world a better liver reme '' dy or a cure for debilitated system than Dr. 5 Sanlord’B Invlgorator, for it has been fully tried in a large and extended practice till its results ie are fully known, and now it is offered as a tried remedy, and one that can be relied on.—Lan caster Whig. mh9 ] 3U)!)frtisemfnts.
