Pros*.
There was considerable frost in the
vicinity of Augusta, this morning.—
Some report cotton injured, hut we are
disposed to hope that no serious damage
has been done. It is still cold and
windy, with a prospect of a more se
vere frost to-night.

Visit to the Works of the Porcelain
Mnuurnrliuing Company.
On yesterday, in company with Mr.
Hoi wan, of thin city, we vid ted Kaolin,
the name given to the Works of the
Porcelain Manufacturing Company, or
ganized a little over a year ago. It is
situated in Edgefield District, S. €.,
about 5 miles below Hamburg. The lo
cation is elevated and healthy, and the
bed of Porcelain clay embraces about
25 acres. It is embedded some 15 feet
below the surface, and is 20 feet in
depth, affording a supply ample for al
most an unlimited demand. The works
of the'Company are erected about a quar
ter of a mile from this bed, and consist
of a main building 40x120 feet with a
kiln-house crossing one end, 40x80
feet in size, two stories high, with a
basement where the fuel is supplied to
heat the kilns.
Adjoining this is the “ Slip House ”
20x70 feet, where flint, feldspar, &c.,
are crushed by means of French Burr |
J j
Mill Stones, and other machinery, and
thrown into vats ready for the work
men. An engine of 25 horse powerdrives
the machinery.
We found about 30 hands busily en
gaged in the various processes of work,
crushing the native flint, moulding
pitchers, cups and saucers,or fashioning
the neatest models for China ware.
Having but recently found that the
clay was adapted to making China,they
have not yet made complete sets, but
their pitchers are very white and per
fect, and fully attest the practicability
of producing China ware not inferior
to the choisest articles of French manu
facture.
They are now engaged in making fruit
cans to be used with Dayton's Patent Ex
hauster, and on yesterday were prepar-:
jug a kiln, consisting of 1,200 dozen of I
r >; new and superior at Helen forpre-!
viag fruit. This, alone will boa j
heavy business, as the can is much bet
ter than tin, or glass, owing to its anti- I
corrosive and durable nature#
We could not in the limited space of j
a notice like this,give a definite idea of
theprocessof making ware. Whenmoul- 1
ded it is allowed to dry until suffie’ent- j
iy hard to receive the sizing. After go- j
ing through this process one or more i
times, according to the nature of the
ware, it is put into the furnace in what
arc called saggers, or tubs, varying in
size according to the size of the ware,
and made of a composition of old crock
ery and clay. These are piled one above
another, the bottom of one making a
cover for that below it, until the kiln
is full, when fuel is applied, and the
burning process commences. This re
quires the utmost care, and takes we
believe nearly 48 hours, when after
standing about the same length of tune, i
to cool,it is ready to unpackund remove j
to the sales-room.
We learn that the composition of the
taggers is especially adapted to the man
ufacture of fire brick, and the company
are about to add a machine for mould
ing them. This will also be a valuable
source of revenue, as well as a public
convenience.
The company have shipped large
quantities of the clay to the North, to
be used by Crockery Manufacturers, and
it has proved superior to any found in
this country. If Northern companies
can make it pay to ship it 1,400 milesat
a expense of sl4 per ton, it would seem
that it must be profitable to manufac
ture it on the spot, where its cost is !
scarcely $2, and where wood, labor and
living arc all to be had at the cheapest
rates. \\ e therefore look forward to
see the Southern Porcelain Manufactur
ing Company become a source of profit
to its projectors, and of pride to the
| friends of progress in our community.
Though located in our sister State, it is
■ peculiarly an Augusta enterprise—being
> owned by residents of our city, and
hence we feel a local interest in its suc
cess.
! The workmen are chiefly English, and
occupy cottages erected in the vicinity,
r A neat Church has also been erected
where service is held regularly, and the
whole place presents the appearance of
a well-ordered community.
Revival In Amherst College.
A wonderful revival has just been
, going on in Amherst College. It com-
I menced with the term which has recent
ly closed. From small beginnings it
made gradual progress, till the entire
collegiate community was brought un
der its influence.
Nearly three-quarters of the number;
; were previously professors of relig
■ ion. Os the reminder, between forty
and fifty have been hopefully conver-1
ted during the term, leaving less than
twenty in the whole college undecided.
Demand on Haytl.
The Washington hates says that the
’ Government ought to send down one of
our frigates to demand satisfaction of
Souloque for the American merchant
men the Haytian cruisers have robbed on
1 : the Mora passage. They have plunder
-1 i ed our ships and citizens to the tune of
r.
, three hundred thousand dollars, for
! which they have not been brought to
1 | account in any shape ; and now they
threaten to invade the Diminican Re
-1 public, and murder or drive out all the
■ (whites except those who are the subjects
•! of tlie European powers friendly to Hay
tl.
j This is a subject which commends it
-1 .self to tlie instant action of theCoveru
ment. A squadron in the Haylian wa
iters would have a happy effect. We
’ j have always wondered that our fillibus
iters have never made Hayli, tlie gar
|den spot of the word, an object of their
|benevolent exertions to extend “the
1 circa,’ The Island needs civilizing and
I developing, and,at present in the hands
' |of its black lazzaroni, is fast relapsing

Frost In the Up Country.
Calhoun, Ga., April 27th 1808.
. | We had a light frost with ice last
, night—killed down Corn, Potatoes,
Beans &c., —and Cotton, where there
| was any up, and slightly injured Garden
truck generally ; Fruit and Wheat, not
J seriously hurt, though the prospect for
I Wheat is not as flattering as it was a
few weeks since. The wet weather has
caused it to run up very spindling, and
there is great complaint in this section
with tlie Fly, especially on all stubble
and grassy land, which is nearly ruined.

' (ST Dr. Sanford’s In vis or a
t tor. —The most skeptical people can be con
i vinced by trial that all the family medicines are
, not humbug, and that amoug the thousand ol
k butter fly life there are a few of great merit and
undoubted worth. Os these, Dr. SANFORD’S
INVIGORATOR or LIVER REMEDY stands first
, and foremost among the remedies of the day
1 that can be relied on as a medicine that is all it
is recommended by its proprietors. It adver
tises itself on every trial, for there are none who
use it i ut tell their friends to do so, and so it
goes from mouth to mouth till all the people of
the Union have learned the good of this truly
valuable mcdiciue. It is recommended with tes
timonials to prove its virtue for the cure of liver
complaints of every kind, from the worst Dys
pepsia to a common Headache, and is particular
ly adapted to Jaundice, Deranged Stomach, Bow
el Complaints, and Diseases of Children
One or two doses are said to cure a cold with
scarce a failure. It is worth a trial for this
alone. It is particularly adapted to the use of
ladies of sedentary habits. Some ladies of the
highest standing in society have given their cer
tifleates of its efficacy, and we say to all who are
ailing, try one bottle, and you will never be
1 without it. —Bloomfield Press. ap26-m

I 0T The Great P r oblem
i Solved r—DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
life-su3taining element, is relieved by a single
. course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
£ nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
tho sufferer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
e basis of activity, strength and health.
t The nervous sufferer, while tormented by tho
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
1 or disability arising from the u nuatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery momber 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 are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hards 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 tho solid materia 1
i which is to be subjected to their action. As an
. appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
I precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
i wife, tho 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
P will all find immediateand perm .mt relief from
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard
against that terrible milady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the roach
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without ro
i ierence to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution
