drkrntg Jlisgatcl], 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 ries from hisplaceat Union Point. They were very large and delicious. We do not know of wbut variety they were. Harper's Magazine. We have received, from Thomas Rich ards & Sox, the June number of Har per’s Magazine. It is an interesting 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 and Charleston Railroad are on a strike, the company requiring them to work eleven hours a day during the summer. 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. ' Ut-orgln Items. John Kavanauh, indicted for an as sault with the intent to murder, was tried before the Superior Court of Mus cogee county on Monday, and convict ed. The Georgia Cotton Planter's Associa tion is to convene in Macon on the 2d Tuesday in June. It is hoped that eve ry Cotton growing county will bo repre sented. On Tuesday of [last week, a difficulty occurred at Whitaker’s Cross Roads Pre cinct, in Harris county, between John W. Myhand and Buktor A. Ebooks, which resulted in the death, on Satur- > day hist, of the former. i Ihe interest that has been exhibited in Columbus on the subject of religion seems to he unabated, and rather on the increase. The different churches are still thronged with anxious souls inqui- f ring after the truth. Mrs, John w, Dupree, of Sumter t county, was burned to death on Friday! t ]ast. Her dress caught fire, and before! s Any assistance could be rendered, shej j was so severely burned as to survive! , but twenty four hours. ; The Cherokee Baptist Convention which commenced its annual session in Rome on last Saturday, was or- j • ganized by the election of Elder J. | M. Wood, President, Elder G. W. Sel- : vidge, Vice President, W. A. Mebo , " 11 j Secretary, and A. B. Ross, g ec I retary. The Georgia sa ysthat “ Bock Horn did uo j <jo f u ]] justice to all the j j I , days ago. That paper says : “ Now I we do not suppose that “ Buck Horn ” misrepresented the facts as stated to him, but he has not given the facts in I the case. Col. Young agreed to pay his toll so soon as he passed over the bridge; \ but McGinnis refused to let him pass. Young then attempted to pass, when; McGinnis pushed the gate to, at the same time raising a bar of iron and struck at Young, when Young fired. It is due to Col, Young to state, that he paid his toll after crossing the bridge. 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. Then there are other territories fil-j ling up with great rapidity, and which will shortly knock at the door of Con- j gress for admission Among these are | Ontonagan—New Mexico, Utah, Ari-1 zonia, the Choctaw Settlement. ancHl Nebraska. These with Minnesota anal Kansas will give us forty two States and will almost double the freesoil elo- I ment of Congressional representation—, for nobody has the remotest idea of ma king Slave States of any of them. Jtf The gross receipts of Mr. Even-. errs Lecture in Norfolk were SB6l ; j the expenses were $77.1G, leaving s7B3] 84, for the Mount Vernon fund. fljf The total number of deaths in New York last week was 404 ; adults ! 10L; children 242—males 220 ; femalesj 178 ; colored persons 13. 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. ——- Decrease In lmjturts. The New York Express, gives a com- j parative statement of the imports of ! last week, as follows : Week ending May 14,1858 82,732,502 “ “ “ 1857 4,619,010 Decrease in 1868 : : ; $1,886,508 .

By this ar- , langement the mail is detained in At- ( lanta over twelve bouts, and passengers j are, of course, sublet to the same de tention. We notice that the papers along the . line of the ltoad express great dissatis i faction at the movement, and attribute ’ j it to the ultra notionß of Dr. Lewis ! about economy. A petition to the Post ; Master General is suggested by the Car- , ! tersville Egress. - Dramatic and Musical. Miss Charlotte Cushman and Mr. E. L.

It was then determined that the parties should I meet and end the affair on Monday, at eleven | o’clock, somewhere in the vicinity of the Lower j Market.

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 this resolution will never have occasion to use a j hair dye.
