AUGUSTA. GA:
Saturday Evening, Mny ‘W, IHSN.
GeorglnandCarotlna Banks.
The late discussions in reference to
the relative condition of the hanks of
Georgia and Carolina, will render the
following comparative statement of
their specie circulation at the time of
suspension, of general interest. In a
short time we hope to present a similar
statement, based on their condition at
the time of their resumption :

Receipts and Stock* of Produce.
It will be seen by reference to our *
commercial department, that receipts!
of produce at this market are gradually | *
falling off. Stocks of bacon and flour ‘
are very heavy. 1 c

It seems that this magnificent bubble ,
has collapsed. At a late meeting of the
stockholders in New Orleans, to take ]
into consideration the affairs of the ,
company, it was stated that the whole ,
stock, amounting to $318,000 “was not ,
worth a chew of tobacca.”
All the speakers exonerated Mr.
Yeroer, the President of the company,
but charge Wall street with the impos
ture. It was stated that the project
was got up by Rouert J. Walker, at
Niblo’s Garden, in New York, and the
first day the books were opened, he took .
$10,000,000 of stock, and Mr. Joel G. j
Sever took $5,000,000 ; they then wentj
home to dinner, got drunk, and then]
went back and subscribed for further
similar amounts.
Editors were induced to blow for the
concern by pledges of stock, and largo
subscriptions were thus obtained.—
What ever became of the money is not
yet satisfactorily determined.
Georgia Items.
The revival in Columbus still contin
ues without abatement in interest.
The Supreme Court at its late session,
settled the Constitutional question as to
the right of the present members of the
Legislature of Georgia, holding their
seats until the expiration of the next
session. By this decision, the mem
bers of the last session will retain their
seats for another term.
A likely negro boy, some 7 or 8 years
old, belonging to Dr. Calhoun, of New
nan, was killed a few days since by fall-!
ing from a tree.

Crops lu Tennessee.
The Cleveland Banner of the 20th
inst., says :
Although early in the season thej
wheat crop promised an abundant yield
now, we are sorry to say, it is not so
promising. We have been traveling for
fivo weeks in lower East Tennesse, and
last week across to Nashville, and from
the observations made, we are satisfied
that the crop will not be more than a
half one. It looks yeilow, spindling,
and is very low, caused by the late cold
weather and the fly. The corn and oat
crops also look bad, but they have suffi
cient time to eomc out; the wheat crop
ts too far advanced, and will be a fail
ure, to a great extent, in this section.

I Special Correspondence of the Dirpakh.
Washington Travel*-Steamboat*
Hotel* Ladles Congressmen, and
( General Gossip.
i Well, Washington City is the place,
say what you please. With a little in
clination, one can catch a glimpse of
the panorama of the world at large.
j Here the tributaries of a thousand
f places, on land and sea, pour into the
e lap of our great Metropolis, everything
f that is calculated to challenge the at
f tention of the traveler.
1 After leaving the beautiful city of
r I Augusta, with its rows of trees of wav
! ing green, its fragrant flowers, its love
|ly women and gallant men; the cars
| bore us rapidly on to Brancliville. As-
I ter stumbling and groping about, for
j “twas near the midnight hour,” we
| transferred ourself to the Kingsville
; cars.
The road from Brancliville to Kings
ville forms the most uninteresting part
j of the travel northward from Augusta,
i Touching at Wilmington, Weldon and
the various transit points, we got to
i Acqua Creek. From this spot the expe
rienced traveler knows how well it is to
keep his weather-eye open. Extortion
; j begins from the time you put your foot
I i on the boat, until it bears you back
I again to the soil of Old Virginia. A
quarter, if you speak to a servant, and
oceenty-five cents for dinner, four
quarters for the use of a thing big
enough to turn round in, called a state
room, three hours time, form part of
the bill of fare on board; but they serve
up a good dinner, and you find the cap
tain a clever fellow.
We pass on quickly over the waters
of the Potomac. Yonder are the sa
cred shades of Vernon—the bell tolls
the solemn sound again ; a moment and
the gay, laughing, boisterous company,
on the upper deck, are hushed in rever
ential silence. How grateful, how pro
foundly beautiful, this sad salute of
honor. Here no creed or faith is known
or required; iu the unostentatious sim
plicity of truth, the hearts of all pay i
the glad homage to exalted worth. ■
Washington, at this season of the I
year, is certainly- a delightful and desir- i
able place. Its public squares ; green s
parks ; sparkling waters ; lovely girls 1
on the promenade, are attractions to (
the stranger. ’
We attended, in company with a t
friend, at the President's grounds, the t
first musical exhibition of the season, 8
for the entertaiment of the citizens, by r
the Baud of the Marine Batalion.— I
Congress has very properly granted ex- c
tra pay to this fine corps of musicians f
for this service. They number thirty t
odd, and perform twice a week, alter
nating at the President's grounds and c
the Capitol. Hundreds of both sexes f
were out in full fashion, old and young, c
gay and grave. Congress was well rep- i
resented on these enchanting grounds. 1
We saw the Cabinet personated in Mr. i
Cobb, whose characteristic urbanity was i
plainly to be seen while returning the t
hows of the numerous friends that sur- <
rounded him on every side. Mr. Cobb, i
I learn, is very much esteemed here, 1
and, perhaps, is the most powerful man 1
in the Cabinet. May his shadow never
grow less.
Mr. Buchanan spent his time with ]
j the young ladies on the walks, be- 1
; neath the shade trees that form a cir
| cle directly opposite the poetic Potomac. I
Among the ladies, conspicious, was
| Miss Lane, the handsome nice of the
j President. She is universally and de-
I servedly popular, being one of the
most sensible and accomplished women
in the American Metropolis.
Miss Cushman has heen delighting
the people here. The other night she :
appeared in the character of Mej Mer- i
rilies —one must see her as she peforms <
this part, to understand the reputation
she has won as the Gipty Queen. The
stock company is like the building, a
very poor affair, the audience the most
brilliant of the capital. In looking
round we saw Messrs. A. H. Stephens
and Crawford, of Georgia, in the pit,
Senator Seward, of New York. Mr.
Senator Dougins and lady, occupied a
side box. Mrs. D. disappointed us
agreeably, she is certainly very liand
j some, and dresses in simple but excel-
I lent taste ; like Miss Lane, she under-
I stands practicing good sense in every
thing. What a contrast between these
j ornaments of the first class ladies of
1 the land, and the swelled proportions
of the moving pyramids of dry goods
and the mock glory of some of their
inferiors.
Georgia need well be pround of her
. delegation in Congress—she is well ap
; predated at the capitol through them.
The position and labors of Mr. Stephens,
| in all the late trying and important
events at the capitol, have placed hi nr
prominently in the foreground of tlm
nation ; his strength, power and ability,
as the great Legislator, is well under
stood by his opponents. He is known
as the leader of the Administration side
j of the House.
> i Governor Quitman is in feeble heal! h,
1 anc ' l heard that he remarked, that se
, venteen persons had died of the Na
i; tional Hotel disease, and he expected
1 to be the eighteenth. Gov. Q. is too
j valuable a man for the country to lose,
t and we sincerely trust he may be re
" stored again to his health.
- Gov. Hammond, of South Carolina, is
one of the most conspicuous men in the
Senate, his reputation as a ripe scholar,
a profound logician, and great legisla
tive ability—is universal. Carolina hon
ored herself in sending him to the Sen
ate. Mr. Miles, the young and hand
some bachelor Representative from the
Charleston District, is quite popular in
i Washington. Gen. Bonham, the suc
' cessor of the lamented Brooks, was
; pointed out to us as one of the distin
guished in the House. He was Colonel
of the twelvth Regiment Infantry in
f the Mexican War. He is remembered
-by those who knew him there, for every
• quality that distinguishes pei6onal
s worth and superior mental endowments.
■ He is the true type of a chivalric man.
r He, with his talented and gallant col
e league, Mr. Miles, seem to be rising
L ' men; they have won reputations in
Washington, as well for their marked
' ability, as their untiring devotion to
4 the interests of their gallant State.
Mr. Otero, the delegate from New
4 Mexico, is a Spanish Mexican, an ac
-3 complished gentleman and debater. He
was educated in the United States. Du
-3 ring discussions on territorial questions,
1 involving the interests, to some degree,
t of New Mexico, he evinced great zeal
1 in battling for her lights. That dis
1 tant Territory is well represented in the
1 person of Mr Otero.
There is much talk here, even at this
time, as to who will be the next Presi
dent, or rather nominee of the Demo
cratic party, which is the same thing.
Slidell, Lane, Toombs, Cobb, llrecken
ridge, Wise, Hunter, Orr, Douglas, and
many others, are variously mentioned
in this connection. Another report has it
our distinguished Senator, Mr. Toombs, i
positively refuses to be a candidate, i
This is also said of Gov. Cobb. Gen. j
Lane, the delegate from Oregon, and, 1
by the bye, one of the most remarkable |
men of the times, is talked of by those,
for the Presidency, who seldom express
their opinions prematurely, and who
have the power when they do move.—
Gen. L., you remember,was the Marion
of the Mexican war, where he won
proud laurels. He has heen compared,
not unaptly, to Gen. Jackson. He has
all the elements of a strong, powerful, j
practical mind, and sure enough an An
drew Jackson method of doing business, j
We heard him in an off-hand effort in i
the House yesterday, while territorial j
matters were up. He is a vigorous rea- j
soner, coming to the gist of the argu- |
ment at once. He is a man that pre- j '
possesses every one in his favor that |
comes in contact with him. His chances j
for the White House, so far, seem bet
ter than any yet spoken of.
Willard’s Hotel is crammed; it is a first : -
class House; two dollars and seventy- ®
five cents per day for board; it has o
courteous book-keepers and assistants o
in the office, who will treat you well.—
T
The Avenue House, a new establish- f
ment, kept by Mr. J. K. King, perhaps
is as desirable to stay at as anywhere in
the city, on account of the charges, its
central situation to all places of public
interest, and above all, the unceasing
attention of its courteous proprietor to
the comfort of his guests. Give him a
trial when you come on.
We heard great complaints by the i
passengers, of the Conductor, Mr. Ryan,
on the road from Branchville to Kings- i
ville. Had not quiet counsel heen sug- >
gested, some of the passengers were de- :
termined to vent a mark of their resent- ■
ment upon him. His uncivil deport- :
ment and contemptuous manner of ]
treating passengers, we learn, is quite
notorious. We wonder the proper of- U
ficors do not sec to this matter. From
Kingsville to Branchville, I learn, du- ■
ring one of the hottest days of the sea
son, very recently, he carried a locked "
coach along, and though politely solie- j
ited, refused to open it until within a |
few miles of Branchville. The cars be-! -
ing much crowded, the passengers were
very indignant. These are facts, as I
many of the passengers gave their ad
dresses to the writer of this,'.to prove j
even more if necessary. We hope Mr.; 1
Caldwell will see to the matter. How j
different the rudeness and impoliteness of !
this man to the courteous agent, Mr. \
Fowler, on the same train. The other ;
roads in South Carolina have polite and
efficient officers. Mr. Crock, on the ]
road from Kingsville to Wilmington, is !
universally popular,
I will close this, as I shall write you
soon again. Yours, &c.,
Cambridge.

Horrid Murder.
DavidS. Lewis murdered Wells C.
Dewier, his wife’s father near Searcy,
White county, on the Bth inst., in the '
most shocking and brutal manner. The
parties were moving to Texas, with their :
families, and the bloody deed was com
mitted at their camp, leaving the fami
ly women and children totally unpro
tected. Lewis made his escape. He is
ahou; twenty-two years of age, has blue
iiifeS and weighsabout 135 pounds. His
height is about five feet eight or ten
inches. He wore a brown cloth coat, a
low-crowned black hat. He is a little

(IT There is a Liter Invig
orator for all who are troubled with any if
those disagreeable complaints, such as Jaundice,
j Dyspepsia, or Liver Diseases of any kind. We
feel that we are doing our invalid readers an in

i bottle of Dr. Sanford’s luvigorator, and lake it, .
I for we know from persona! experience that it is
I one of the greatest remedies so general debility
j and consequent inactive bodily powers ever be
fore used. Its action is so perfect and complete
1 as to give relief the first time takeu, and if it
