Sliming psjmtc|. Tuesday Evening:, April 6, 1838. Etowah Manufacturing and Mining Company. Among the pioneers in the developc ment <sf the mineral, agricultural un<! manufacturing resources of the South, Uakk A. Cooper occupies a position which many who have distinguished themselves in the walks of literature and statesmanship might envy. To him principally belongs the credit of building up the Etowah Manufacturing and Mining Company, comprising im portant works in connection with the iron, wheat, coal and gold resources of Upper Georgia. These works were com menced in the year 1845, and embrace Ist. A Rolling Mill for the varieties of Merchant Iron ; with a nail factory, spike machine, and all necessary appa ratus for building and fitting up, with shops, warehouses, operative houses, hotel, store, &c., attached. The rolling mill makes from six to eight tons per day. 2d. A Blast Furnace and Foundry, with all the needful patterns, shops, office rooms, and operative houses here to attached. Its products aie hollow ware, heavy machinery, and pig metal. 3d. A Merchant Flouring Mill for Wheat, with warehouse, cooper shop, hotel, and operative houses therewith connected, making from 150 to 200 barrels of flour per day. 4th. Two Grist Mills for Corn. sth. Two Saw Mills for Lumber. 6th. A Coal Mine for the supply of fuel to the rolling mill. 1,000 acres of timber and mineral lands in Dade coun ty All these operations are, and have been, in successful movement, for seven Or eight years. The motive power is furnished by the Etowah river, which would also furnish ample water-power for the largest man ufacturing town in New England. The iron ore is abundant, and of the best quality, while wood, timber and labor is cheap and abundant. Maj. Cooper is now building a rail road from the Western & Atlantic road to the rolling mills, a distance of 4 miles. Two miles of the road is nearly comple ted. He is also building a new blast furnace in sight of his flour mill, and immediately on the railroad. The pub lic have been made familiar with the obstacles this indefatigable man lias encountered and overcome in bringing so extensive a business up to its present profitable condition. During tire late pressure in money matters he has lite rally kept his works in full blast, em ploying from 400 to 000 hands. There is no place in our whole coun try more admirably adapted for the suc cessful prosecution of manufacturing en terprises of every kind, and especially those requiring iron, cotton, wool, wood and cheap labor. The valley lands are fertile, and offer ample agricultural re sources to sustain a dense population.— No country on the map is better adap ted to the growth of fruit, and especially to the vine. The scenery of the Etowah valley is attractive. We have Bpent days—when worn out by over-work in town—in re creation among its wild hills and bound ing streams ; and have seen no region surpassed by it in all the of pare air, salubrity elimate and fme water. tye eou jj wr jt e columns on the natural attractions and resources of this section, but our purpose was simply to call attention to the extent and success of a Georgia enterprise, and to throw our mite in the scale of popular appre ciation which we are too apt to with hold from those truly great and noble characters who are bringing out the boundless resources which God has be stowed on our old Commonwealth. Defence of Cuba, For some time past the Government of Spain lias been quietly engaged in improving her defences on the Island of Cuba, probably in anticipat on of some combined effort to wrest the ever faith ful island from her possession. The la test improvements in the art of war and military arms areadopted. Amongst others we hear of negotiations for the purchase of a New Patent Safety Fuse Train, invented in New York, and ap plicable to thedefenceof fortified places. NewKpaperii In the World. The following is supposed to be the number of newspapers in the world : Ten in Austria, fourteen in Africa, twenty-four in Spian, twenty-six in Por tugal, thirty in Asia, sixty-five in Bel gium, eighty-five in Denmark, fifty in Russiaand Poland, three hundred and fifty in the Germanic States, five hun dred in Great Britain and Ireland, and two thousand in the United States—to tal, 3,154. From the foregoing, it will be seen that in the United States are iigoed nearly twice as many as in all ether nations combined. New York, it is said, has nearly five hundred miles of paved streets. A sour fellow says that he always looks under the marriage head for the news of the weak. Who was the man who first intro duced salt provisions into the navy 1— Noah : for be took Ham into the ark. Game In Tans. Wo heard a gentleman this morning dilating on the rare sport ho had him self enjoyed, and participated in with others in the State of Texas. One man had shot 1400 squirrels in one day, In and about a corn field ! another—we ’ think himself—had slain with his gun . 7or 8,000 pigeons in the same time! as ! to th« number of Wolves, Bears, aud , such like small game, deponent saith i not; but the presumption is, that a 1 score or two could be taken in the * morning before breakfast. > j Tlie Sunken ships nt Sebastopol. , The Constantinople correspondent of . the London Times writes : , “The schooner Silver Key and the , steamer Geu. Knox, belonging to the American Wrecking Companies which ■ undertook to raise the vessels of war i sunk in the harbor of Sebastopol, have . returned to Constautinopole, and are advertised for sale. Tire attempt to ' raise the sunken vessels has completely - failed ; not one of them was recovered. , The Black Sea teredo, so often attribu ted to the well-cultivated imagination ’ of the Russian Admirality, is a stern rc : ality. It has eaten up the body of the r Russian fleet, leaving only the outer shell. The wheel of the Twelve Apos tles has been brought down as a speci , men. Although it consisted of strong mahogany, 21-2 years in the waters of Sebastopol, have reduced its weight to almost nothing. No external change is * visible beyond a few small holes, where . the greedy miners sunk the shafts. The most approved contrivances were tried by tlie two rival companies. The ves > sols were caulked and made seemingly i water-tight, but when they came to j pumping out, it was found that the timber was so rotten that the water percolated everywhere through the gal- i ieries made by the teredo. To this, in ! itself, invincible difficulty must be ad- j ded the fact that most of the vessels ’ had sunk from four to six fathoms into j f the mud. Even if the ships had been j . raised, they would have been of no use. As they could not be raised, it; was tried to blow them up, in order to j - clear the harbor, which at this moment j is so blocked up that only a narrow I channel, marked out by buoys, is left, j through which small vessels with difli-., ; culty wind their way. The damage | done to the timber is, however, so great | ( that not even the attempt to blow the ! vessels up succeeded. As much as 5,000 i | 1 lbs, of powder was tried with a two j , decker; but, as the rotten timber had |* . too little power of resistance, the result; 1 was that the weakest point gave way, l ( and the explosion tore out a small part |, in the side of the vessel, leaving the 1 rest altogether untouched. Tlie liar- I bor must thus remain blocked up until by degrees the work of the teredo is ( done, and the ships fall to pieces. Ac- , cording to the account brought down, eighty-one vessels were found sunk, i which is many more than ever was l known or supposed. The companies ' have brought up sufficient anchors, ca s bles, &c., to pay, at any rate, part of > their expenses, and probably the Rus- I > sian government will make up the dis- . t fereuec. — The 'r ed February. The birthday of Washington seems to ! be a day of fatal omen for tlie British i Ministry, according to the remarks of an exchange: ‘‘ A celebrated Roman was told to j . beware of the Ides of March ; and Eng- j . lish statesmen should be equally cau tions respecting the 22d of February. j 1 On the 22d of February, 1851, Lord : | John Russell was defeated on Locke I King's motion, and resigned. On the j 22d February, 1852, Lord John Russell's i Administration was finally broken up. | On the 22d February, 1755, lord Pal merston's administration was broken up I 1 by the retirement of the Peelites; and !t on the 22d February, 1858, Lord Pal- , merston’s second Administration finally resigned, in consequence of the vote of j censure conveyed by Miluor Gibson’s ; motion.’’ A Lncky Man.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR- I &lAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach t, has lost the power of duly converting food into a life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single ® course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastrin S fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, while his digestive organization was r paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the .. wholesome revolution created in the system, the y basis of activity, strength and health, j 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 j J paralysis, fbornc down and dispirited by that s teriible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of j nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or the unnatural condition - | of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo ’ j tion and thought—derives immediate benefit r from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, ' j invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous 1 organization. e Females who have tried it are unanimous in ‘ declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that I woman has ever received from the lumds of ’ I medical men. 3 ! Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im i 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 materia! t j which is to be subjected to their action. As an f appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. i Iflong life and the vigor necessary to its en* 1 -! joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of j j precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to either i L sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing 1 wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn ! man of business, the victim of nervous depres- j ' sion, the individual suffering from general do- J bility or from the weakness of a single organ j will all find immediate and permanent relief from - the of this incomparable renovator.

A Liver Remedy.—We wish to say to every person who reads this that there is an article known as Dr. Sanford's In j i ngorator , or Liver Remedy, which can be relied on as certain to cure liver complaint in any of its forms, such as Jaundice, Dyspepsia, and nu - merous other Complaints, described in another f column, besides which it is one of the greatest preparations or cures for consumption, taken in r early stages, that is now known. J We take it for granted, as experiment has pre ven that diseases of the lungs are not generally the first cause of consumption, but a debilitated t ay stem, caused by the improper action of the r liver, which reduces the power of the lun s to resist or throw off diseases caused by cold and irritation, leaving the lungs at the mercy of this disease, because the liver has incapacitated them from performing their proper action «( throwing off diseased matter caused by cold. e Thus to prevent consumption, cure the liver . and keep the system strong enough to throw off I. slight diseases of the lung 3. Tliere is not in the world a bettor liver reme dy or a cure for debilitated system than Dr. Sanford’s lnvigorator, for it has been fully tried j Id a large and extended practice till its results are fully known, and now it Is offered as a tried remody, and one that oen be rebed on.—Lan caster Whfff. mb9 , 3t)btrfecnmtts. !GRAND CONCERT t BY Mrs. Annie Thomas Sholl AND CAUL VI K VVEO, i I AT •MASONIC HALL, ON TUESDAY EVENING, April Gtli*. t : - E" «5 ~« ■»■ »** a ~ t PART I. 1.
