Circumstantial Evidence.
The Athens Banner takes us to task
for indulging a phrase of pleasantry in
*h e number of con*
victs lately s' \’» to tb« Penitentiary
from Frank'. counts .. That pape'r
gays the people of that couftfy’ are
among the roost intelligent in the State,
and to prove it, says that “the Banner
has more subscribers in Franklin coun
ty, than in any connty in the district.’
Rather questionable evidence of tlreir
intelligence, we should say.

■few Process of Palling Teeth.
The editor of the Baltimore Patriot
has recently been witnessing the trial of
a new process of extracting teeth, by
which it was stated the operation would
cause no pain. The trial was made at
the College of Dental Surgery, at Balti
more, and the operators were Drs. Har
ris and Arthur. It is said to have
been the most satisfactory trial of the
kind ever witnessed. A number of
teeth were extracted, and the patients
declare they received no pain, hut expe
rienced a numbing sensation about the
tooth. This soothing is produced by
passing a current of electricity through
the tooth at the time of extracting
The patient grasps firmly in his hand
one pole from an electro-magnetic ma
chine ; the other pole from the machine
is attached to the forceps, and by this
means a current of electricity is passed
through the tooth and produces a local
anasthesia, and so avoids the use of
chloroform or ether. The amount of
current is adjusted so as to suit each pa
tient, so as not to produce an unpleas- ,
ant sensation.

“Honor to T Vhom honor Is cine. ,,
This was the inscription upon the
leather medal presented to us at the tar
get shooting last Saturday, for the worst
shot. With a slight alteration in the
phraseology, which would read “credit
to whom credit is due,” we should like
to hang this same leather medal in a
conspicuous place in the office of the
Augusta Evening Dispatch. That paper,
in its issue of the 29th ult.. copied seven
news items from the Southern Banner.
and not only gave no credit, but ap
propriated them as editorial.
Send along the medal, brother Ban
ner, we appreciate mementoes from our
friends,-and especially when they are
so suggestive of the accomplishments of
the donor. In winning this medal,
you bore off the honors of the poorest
*hot in the company, and in sending it
to us for the cause alleged, will acquire
similar distinction as an editorial marks-
man.
Candidly, your soft impeachment in
reference to appropriating copy without
credit, simply because we chanced to
find material in a column of the Banner
for a few “Georgia items,” (not edito
rials) which were re-written, and con
densed into two dozen lines—and which
it is not customary to credit, —approaches
an impudence almost subline, when
week by week you copy the telegraphic
dispatches from the Augusta press,
which cost thousands of dollars a year,
of which wo pay one third—without a
word of credit.
JIT' Dr. A. Means, through the South

Almost our entire community, pre

evening about 80 persons, male and fe
male, have swelled the list of our

students, now in Emory College, 95 or
96 are now recognised as professors of
religion, and give evidence of an ardent
devotion to the cause of God. Several

« The $50,000 Prize.”
The reason the lucky Savannah man,
who recently drew a capital prize in
Swan & Co.’s celebrated lotteries, keeps
dark in the matter now, comes to light
as follows :
I He had tried every kind of specula
j tion in accordance with honesty and the
(“golden rule,” he lost thereby, became
involved, and the “ world” (whichreg
ulates morals) pronounced him “not
| smart.” He could not “defalcate” a
bank with a mighty sweep; he could
not marry “a fortune ” on the strength
of good looks and impudence; nobody
left him a legacy, because tho rich nev
er remember poor relations ; he did not
swindle orphans out of their property ;
he did not amass wealth by nigger spec
| illation, note shaving, or selling whis
| key ; he even did not make a self-pay
ring “business failure”—but to obtain
I what he has got, he bought and paid for a j
I lottery ticket. It turned out to be a
| lucky one, in a line, which
• For him Fortune showed herself more kind
Thau is her custom.”
The “lucky recipient” has learned c
cuteness or “smartness” by adversity 8
and experience. Was he so “ jolly I'
green” as to let his cormorant creditors j *
know he had gained fifty thousand dol
lars, to have his happiness “mulled?”!
! No, siree! says he, like a bumptuous j 1

“No? my tulips—l would rather

■low n Game ot Chess Helped Colnm
lius to Discover America.
According to tbeold Spanish tradition,
Columbus’s discovery of Ameriea is
mainly dun to a hard fought game of
chess. Ferdinand of Spain wasted tiie
latter hours of the day over the chequer
ed board, his principal antagonist being
an old grandee, whole skill put the
monarch’s powers to a severe test. Co
lumbus had long been dancing atten
dant •; at the Court in pursuance of the
•lie aiu f his life—the grant of an ex
dittos n search of a new world, and
a;i : 'Ueii he had hitherto failed in his
aim. vet he had enlisted the sympathies
and support of the good Isabella. Fer
dinand was one of those matter of fact
men, who object to furthering the
schemes of enthusiasts, and withheld
his consent to a New World expedition
being formed.
* Poor Columbus would long before
t have sought assistance elsewhere, but
e Isabella prevented him, and redoubled
. her efforts with her husband. The day
arrived when the great navigator was
to receive his final answer ; he wended
1 his way towards the palace at nightfall,
t more with the intention of bidding
5 adieu to his royal patroness, than from
r any hope of success with Ferdinand.—
. Isabella had not, however, resigned her
self and Columbus to defeat, and, on
the latter’s arriving, she immediately
1 sought the King, who, being absorbed
s in a hard-fought game with the afore
i mentioned old noble, was not in a like
. ly mood to be bothered by the applica
tion of an importunate sailor. The
Queen’s interruption had the effect of
merely distracting the monarch’s at
tention, causing him to lose his princi
pal piece, which was followed by a vol
ley of imprecations on suitors in general
and Columbus in particular.
The game grew worse and worse, and
defeat seemed imminent.
Now Isabella, without ever playing,
had picked up considerable knowledge
of the game by watching her husband
and the nobles, and when Ferdinand
told her that her protege should
successful or otherwise, according as the
game resulted, she immediately bent all
her energies upon the board. The con
test had been unusually long and the
courtiers clustered round the table,
amused at the excitement of the King,
and the quiet satisfaction of his anta
gonist. And so the game went on,
which was to decide the discovery of a
new world, until Isabella leaned towards
her husband’s ear and whispered “ you
can check-mate him in four moves.”—
In the utmost astonishment the King
re-examined his game, found that his
wife’s assertion was correct, and an
nounced a few minutes subsequently
that Columbus should depart on his
voyage of discovery with the title of
“ Admiral of the Fleets.”

' A New TlTek of lii-fgllam Young.
The Washington correspondent of
( the New York Times says:
I have heard the opinion expressed in
, intelligent and well-informed quarters
' here, that the statement of “A Disgus
f ted Mormon,” contained in the letter
of your special correspondent from
Leavenworth, really emanated from
t Brigham Young himself, and that Lo
. ba, instead of being an escaped and dis
-1 gusted Saint, is a secret agent of Brig
ham’s, whose mission is to dissuade the
, the Government, by depreciating the
l strength and resources of the Mormons,
from sending out more forces against
them. The idea is based on the suppo
. sition that Brigham, finding his brag
, gadocia to have failed in its object of
L . deterring the Government from inter
s sering with him, is trying this new
game with a view to induce it not tore
inforce Gen. Johnson. From what we
know of the character of the Mormon
leader and Prophet, the suggestion,
j seems worthy of consideration.

|€T The Great P r oblein
Solved I—IIR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
-1 DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
• has lost the power of duly converting food into a
[ life-sustaining element, is relieved hy 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
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
, paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
1 wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
Tho nervous sufferer, while tormented hy 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 unnaturalcondition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immedhte benefit
1 from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms,
i invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
Females who have tried it arc unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon shat
woman has ever received from the haeds 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 material I
; 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
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
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 .
will all find immediateaud permanent relief from ■
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it a
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard 1
against that terrible malady. There are many r
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- j
j tiofi that they think themselves beyond the reach j
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The ,
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove J
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- i

DESTTIFLJIS K.A 2
T flls IS THE EXCLAMATION of the!
JL SUFFHUNG DYSPEPTIC, after having tried j
all the patent nostrums of the day, when resort |
n'utj once been had to that long popular, tho- 1 '
roughly tested, and never failing Remedy, tho i
Colleton Bitters!
Prepared nder the supervision of Mrs. EMILY ,
A JENKINS.
The disease is driven from the system like the
dew-drop from the rose-bud in the morning
sunlight. What greater proof can the commu
nity roqt im that the article above named is a
RELIABLE REMEDY than that it has been sold '
in this City for a series of Twenty-Five Years, and
has the unsolicited recommendations of Physi
cians, Clergymen, Ladies and Cent omen *f the
first standing. Hundreds of letters have been
received from the most respectable sources, all
speaking in u qualified measure of praise of
this truly GREAT MEDICINE.
Mrs. E. A. JENKINS regrets the necessity of
informing her friends and the public that since
the introduction of the Celebrated COLLE
TON BITTERS, i : itati ns have sprung up, made
by the inexperienced, and of course possessing
but little in rit, they have usually had but an
ephemeral existence ; but th suffering and poor
Dyspeptic must be on his guard, or worthless
imitations w ill be palmed on him in place of my
well known remedy. Buy none, therefore, but
that with tny name on the label, and a so ob
serve that the naiue Colleton Hirers' ’ is bb wn
in the Glass.
The Colleton Bitters is for sale by every re
spo table Drugget in the City and .Vtato
The Trade will b supplied on Liberal Terms.
