AUGU STA, Gr A:
Thursday Evening, May 20, 1838.
Public Documents.
We are under renewed obligations to
Senator Iverson for volume VI of the
Survey of the Pacific Railroad routes.
Large Cotton.
Our friend Askin, of Adam's Ex
press, sent us on yesterday some cotton
stalks from the plantation of Mr. Dews,
near Albany, Ga., which are two feet
in length. A cotton-boll had been ta
ken from one of them.
Fine I'lltrrle*.
Mr. Hart sent us6ome samples of cher

Harper's Magazine.
We have received, from Thomas Rich
ards & Sox, the June number of Har

number.
The Late Outrages on American Ves_
sets.
“There's nothing like getting used
to it,” as the eels said of being skinned,
and the remark is fast acquiring signifi
cance in its application to the insults
offered the American flag.
The telegraph has announced one af
ter another of these outrages, but we
had no idea of their number until our
attention was directed to the following
catalogue, which we find in an ex
change ; and which only embraces the
operations of the British Cruisers in the '
Gulf of Mexico, during the last month :
Ship Tropic Bird fired into, boarded and
searched; schooner Cortez seized and
now detained at Inagua; schooner N. 1
B. Borden fired into, boarded and search
ed ; schooner Mobile fired into, boarded
and searched; brig Robert Wing fired
into, boarded and searched ; bark Glen
burn overhauled at sea, and bark W. H.
Chandler and several others, boarded
and searched while lying at anchor in
the port of Sagua la Grande. Bark
Ringgold was fired into, boarded and
searched at Sierra, Mosenia.
In the case of the bark Cortez and
the W. H. Chandler, and the Glenburn,
papers were demanded, and the cargo
examimed with all the insolence of a
gang of pirates. It certainly cannot be
doubted that these outrages are sane
tioned by the British Government, else
they would not be thus persisted in;
and after the late friendly pretentions
of the Palmerston Ministry, they are
.calculated to excite no little wonder.—
It is said that the Home Squadron has
been instructed to protect our nag from
further outrage; and the Americans in
Havana are also maturing a plan of re
sistance. It appears that Congress is
actually inquiring into the nature of
late outrages, and we may expect a re
newal of negotiations and hypocritical
.explanations Djr Her Majesty’s govern
ment. The true mode of settlement
would be to accidentally have cruisers
enough in the Gulf to take summary
vengeance at the very time of every
outrage.
(If" The editor of the Athens Banner
tenders a courteous disclaimer for any
offensive remarks contained in his allu
sions to us, and declines our challenge
in the following manner :
In the present state of the -wine bush i
ness, we think there would he more'
danger in a duel with champagne bot
tles, than pistols, coffee and ten paces.
For safety, we prefer the latter.

Dr. Thorn welt.
IVe regret very much to learn
that the health of this distinguished
theologian has been so impaired that
his congregation have requested him to
suspend preaching until the Ist of Octo
ber, and to travel for restoration of
health.
He has been suffering from hemorr
hage induced by the delivery of his ser
mon before the Young Men’s Christian
Association, in Charleston, at which
time he spoke to an immense audience
at Institute Hall, for about two hours.
It is to be hoped that he will avail him
self of the proffered respite.
Who has Lost a Watch I
The Savannah Republican of this morn
ing, says that a man who he hails from
Augusta was arrested near the market,
. *
yesterday morning, by Constable Men- (
dell and Policeman "Wray, while offer- (
ing for sale a fine old fashioned gold ;
watch. The circumstance which led to
the arrest, are that he did not give a
definite answer .to any question put to
him respecting the watch, and could
not state where or how he obtained it.
He is now in custody, and if any of the
citizens of Augusta, or this place, have
lost an article of that kind, by address
ing either of those officers, they may
obtain some information, as they have
the number of the watch.
w A destructive fire occurred in
Tallahassee, Fla., on Saturday night,
by which the residences of Mrs. Bruce,
John H. Rhodes, and Wash. Edmond
son, were destroyed.
JIT The employees of the Memphis

Important to the Smith.
The Washingtoncorrespondent to the
Richmond South says that Comonfort,
late President of Mexico, it is stated,
left in his portfolio, when he decamped,
a treaty prepared and ready for his
signature, ceding to the United States
Sonora, (a region of vast agricultural
resources, fine climate, and almost
unlimited mineral wealth,) Chihauhua
and Lower California, and guaranteeing
the right of way at Tehuantepec for
some thirty five millions of dollars. Os
this sum, five millions were to be re
tained to satisfy American claims. It
is understood, says the correspondent,
that a treaty is now in process of nejp>
tiation which will not materially devi
ate from the above, which has probably
been taken as a basis.
The New York Herald learns from
Washington that contracts have been
entered into by the Post Office Depart
ment, the Tehuantepec Company and
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company for
. the conveyance of a semi-monthly mail
. to California, via th 2 Isthmus ofTehu
• antepec. This is the shortest of the
present or prospective routes to Califor
—six days less time than either the,
• Panama or Nicaragua route. It will i
place these routes some twelve hundred,
miles out of the line of travel to the \
Pacific, and diminish the importance of
protracted and perplexing negotiations
with the weak and suspicious govern
ments of Nicaragua and New Grenada. ■
To come from benefits of a national to,
those of a Southern character, says the
Richmond DisjxUch, it is predicted that
the adoption of the Tehuantepec route |
will add greatly to the wealth and pro
gress of the South, and transfer travel |
and traffic as well as mails from New i
York to New Orleans.
The Isthmus of Tehauntepec, which
separates the Pacific from the Gulf of '
Mexico, is 125 miles across. '

More New Territories.
The Committee on Territories in the
House of have reported
in reference to a new territory to becall
ed Nevada, in the portion of Utah called
Carson Valley, and lying between Cali
fornia and Salt Lake. It is desired as a
means of stopping the spread of Mor
rnonism in that direction.
Dacotah Territory is reported as fast
filling up, the rich valley lands along
the Sioux river attracting a large share 5
of the emigration West. This territory ]
is between Minnesota and Nebraska, and 11
between the 44th and 48th parallels of
latitude.

will shortly knock at the door of Con- j
gress for admission Among these are |
Ontonagan—New Mexico, Utah, Ari-1

The Decline of Fanaticism. |
The proceedings of “Anniversary
work,” in New York, indicate a most
unmistakable decline in that intemper
ate and clamorous style of declamation
which so recently characterized a num
ber of the associations whose field of
labor has been among the pliant and
deluded masses of that section. The
attendance at the freedom-shriek
ing, woman’s rights, and other “re
form ’ societies, shon*ed a great falling
oif in numbers, and the character oi
the speeches was equally significant ot
a decline in their fanatical enthusiasm.
The addresses -though not uumixed
with absurd and infamous principles,
were generally tolerant; and declama
tory appeals to the bad passions, were
hissed by their own associates, or fell
upon their hearers like hail upon the
sand. Os course, in a dense population,
there are always some willing dupes to
every imposture, however absurd ; but
an observer cannot fail to note the de
cline in radicalism among the better
classes, and a gradual return to the so
ber paths of conservatism and truth,
among those w’ho have been running ,
j after the charlatans and strange gods of
- reform.
With all this we are willing to hope ,
i that a more national and frater.nl spirit
: will prevail in their political councils,
j and that the higher law doctrines will |
j be abandoned for the safe and just prin
ciples of constitutional equality.
Will Brigham Emigrate !
j Advices from the Saints at Salt Lake i
J are somewhat contradictory. Brigham
j had hardly been reported as having
! left for the Mountains, when a dispatch J i
, announces that Governor Gumming had j c
! j gone to that city by invitation. No in
| timation is given' as to who sent him
! the invitation, and the official advices
at Washington, of a subsequent date,
make no allusion to it.
If Young has left Salt Lake City, and
. Governor Cummins has been invited by
other parties, it looks as though there
might be a rebellious faction at work,
trying to subvei fi his plans, and make
peace with the United States. It would
be very strange if that portion of these
! deluded people which were formerly
citizcns of this country, should consent'
to risk the fortunes of a war with the :
United States.

Hair arc Dan"*' I’o™.—Prof. 1 ’ o ™.— Prof. Wood’s Hair
Tonic restores tlie color, not by the nitri2 f e of
silver process, but by a restoration of the
healthy functions upon which the original ami
natural color of the hair and its moisture, its
loss, its life, and consequently its original
beauty depended. Prof. Woo l, at the age of
thirty‘Seven years, was as g.ey as a man 6i
eighty, and his hair was dry, thin and dead.
Now he has not a single grey lock upon his
crown, nor is his hair thin or dry, but soft, i>ii- .
able and moist as that of a child of fit e 3 ears.
This preparation acts upon the roots, for after
an application that portion of the hair nearest
the scalp is fouDd restored to the original c/oior,
whatever it was, while the ends ot the hair are
gray. Try Wood’s Hair Tonic , and do not ap
ply any other till after you have this. With
