A Crazy Nuisance.
We have been requested, by numer
ous citizens, to notice the frequent dis
turbance created by that poor colored
lunatic known as “Rasmus,” who may
be seen almost daily going through the
streets, shouting and indulging in an
tics calculated to frighten children and
others who do not know him. Would
it not be humane to confine him,
or to cause his guardian or other con
troller, if he has any, to keep him from
going at large in the public streets ?
The Georgia Lotteries In New York.
It seems that Mayor Tieman, nothav
ing enough to do, to keep in check the
foul spirt of murder and general devil
ment which have been making New
York city a terror to citizens and strang
ers, has turned his attention to the sup
pression of what he is pleased to term
one of the bogus lotteries South.
It seems that he by some means was|
led to believe that the charter under j
which Swan & Co., of this city are ope-'
rating, had expired, and he at once sent j
an agent to this State to make investi-j
gations, and take proceedings against!
them. Sergeant Birney it seems pro-!
cured a letter of introduction from
Howell Cobb to Gov. Brown, and the
Governor wrote to Col. McLaws, Solici
tor of this circuit, expressing his hos
tility to lotteries, and urging him, if he
found this lottery or any other, to be j
actiug without authority of law, to i
take steps for its suppression. Accord-1
ingly Birney came to tiiis city, and onj
placing the information he had obtained I
before the Grand Jury, indictments
were issued against the following persons:
Samuel Swan, Bun.). Wood, George P.
Eddy, owners of the lottery ; Frede
rick P. Barber, Leon P. Dugas, Com
missioners, professing authority to
draw ; James A. Eddy . Charles A.
Lathrop, clerks.
The parties all gave security, to ap
pear at the next term of court for trial,
and here the matter rests.
But the sensation papers of New York
attempt to make the impression that
the affair created great excitement in
Georgia. Nothing is farther from the
truth, for no paper in the State had
noticed it, and we do not suppose one
hundred persons out of Augusta had
heard anything about the matter.
The only sensation created here, was
the general impression of those who
saw anything of Birney, that his self
conceit and impertinence entirely over
balanced his other qualities, and this
caused a number of our citizens, who
neither knew him or his mission, to
write him down an ass. It required no
sensation to do that.
Fun Among Hie Darkles.
We know of no matter more worthy
the especial attention of our Grand Ju
rors, than the resorts of a certain class
of'our colored population. There are
many negroes occupying lots where op
portunities for illegal traffic are not
wanting, and the dens of some of the
white folks, where negroes collect of a
night, if carefully watched, would re
veal some d ark transactions. It is not
■saying more than the truth to observe
that the negroes of Augusta are allowed
entirely too much license, and idleness
and dissipation are too apparent among
them. Our reporter saw a party a few
Sundays ago with all tho gambling im
plements, enjoying themselves on the
banks of the canal —and it does not re
quire very close watching to find them
drunk any Sunday. Owners and guardi
ans owe it to themselves, to their ser
vants and to the peace and good order
of the city, to co operate with the pat
rol force in suppressing these licentious
practices, which are unquestionably be
coming very common.
Since writing the above, we learn
that through tho vigilance of the po
lice, over forty cases of selling liquor to
negroes without permission, were pre
sented before the Recorder this morn
ing. Ip to 12 o’clock twenty-one cases
bad been tried and bound over to the
city court. The others will probably be
disposed of in the same way. This is
the beginning of a good work, and we
have no doubt it will be prosecuted
with vigor until the evil is abated.
The weather continues cool, dry, and
pleasant. Crops in tiiis section are
growing finely.
Rev. Dr. Lgngstreet has been in onr
city this week.
[communicated.]
Mr. FxlUar :—I have been greatly an
noyed by the little niggers whistling in
the streets on Sunday. Will the Mayor
of New York he pleased to look into
the matter, and, if on examination, he
finds that the practice is illegal, will he
be kind enough to send another Yidocq
out here to have the system broken up ?

Mr. Ciioate lias recently delivered an
oration in Roston, on Jefferson. Hamil
ton and Burr, which has attracted great
attention Os Mr. Jefferson, ho said :
“ The great and learned man had some
speciality by which ho moved the peo
ple, yet were they all centered in single
clarion erv, which animated the age of
the Declaration of Independence—by
which the whole rising people spoke out
their full heart, their long yearning to
j lie free. The specialities of eloquence
; and wisdom of James Otis, John Adams,
Hawley, l’atrick Henry, Samuel Adams
and Washington, weie all embodied in
that declaration. Yet we cannot criti
cise it. I’nderstand it, interpret, love
it we can, but criticise it we cannot. I
hold it for expression, although most
unrivalled by the productions of unin
spired men. I would not add to it if I
could, or tako from it a single word. I
would not pitch it on a tune highei or a
tune lower. I would not alter it if I
might, in argument, expostulation,
epithet. On the morning of every
Fourth of July, it should be read and
meditated anew as expression
1 of our wisest men, speaking for Con
gress, speaking for men, speaking for
America in her snblimest moment.”
The eloquent orator thus concludes:
“ Where now would these three men
stand in these crises, which are thought
to have come upon us, if they were
alive? How do they look upon them
and upon us, if they descend from their
homes, light and calm and love! That
farwell address of Washington—how
would it appear if its counsels and ex
postulations were made to-day.
“Theircounsel would be, ‘TheUnion
it must be and it shall be preserved,
just as we left it to you.' To them,
these strifes of party, these debates
about Lecorapton and Topeka, this array
of South against North, and East against
West, this fanaticism against freedom,
seem now as the shadow that passes, as
, the ripple upon depths unsounded and
| sunless, as the small disturbance and
: peturbation that cannot change the
. course or hasten the doom of stars.—
' They, all threoof them, stand together
j and rejoice to see our true civilization,
| our better liberty, our people, bound
j less as the waves, one as the sea, one
j sun, rising, yet going forth as a bride
! groom from his chamber, as a strong
| man beginning only to run his race.”

A Visit to Edwin Forrest,
“ Aguccheek,” the lively and a free
able correspondent of the Gazelle, in a
pleasant letter from Philadelphia, thus
describes a visit to the home of Mr.
! Forrest:—
1 soon reached his spacious mansion ’
, in the upper part of the city, and found
him clad in dressing gown and slippers, 1
' and seated among his books. He looked
i better than I expected. The pain he!
I has suffered seems to have had no visi ;
ble effect upon him, beyond a little
> lameness, from which he is rapidly re
: covering. His athletic form has lost
none of the noble proportions which
have won our admiration in his imper
sonations ot the Moor of Venice or tho
- Gladiator ; and bis big, manly voice
,1 possesses all the varied power to which
we yielded a willing allegiance years
■ ago. His library is a spacious saloon,
extending the whole length of his
. house, and containing some fifteen
thousand volumes. A casual glance at
1 the room and its contents would stiow
you that its owner was a man of thought
. as well as of action. He possesses in
that single room resources with which
he might laugh to scorn a siege of rheu
i matism, and all the decrepitude of age.
- The house itself won my unbounded
j admiration. It is a tangible proof that
its owner knows not only how to bring
s down a house, but how to put one up.
] There is an air truly baronial about its
lofty balls and spacious staircases, and
a fine suit of polished steel armour,
s which adorns the lower hall, materially
j assists the illusion. The absence of the
. gaudy decorations, so common in most
of the grand houses of the present day,
and the solidity and elegant simplicity
s of the entire establishment, are eviden
, [ ces not only of the taste, but of the
J straightforward manliness of its master.
) Old Folks’ Elopement.
Justice Purdy married a couple yes
tesdnv, who fully merit the felicity
which they will doubtless enjoy in con
, nubial union. The bridegroom was an
old bachelor, whose years numbered
three score and ten, and whose looks
■ betokened him innocent of womankind.
■ His bride was a widow, who asserted
. that she was but fifty-seven, but the
. bystanders set her down at eighty. ‘ It
’ appeared that the widow, in the exercise
of those winsome ways which widows do
i affect, inveigled the bachelor into an
■ attachment which both parties proposed
; to consummate in matrimony. An ob
. jection arose, however, in the shape of
j several infants, twenty-eight or thirty
years old, belonging to the widow, who
! most decidedly objected to their mar
: rying In this dilemma they resorted
. to the usual dodge peculiar to young
. people, arid eloped. As they lived in
Canada, the only place to elope to was
’ America, and they accordingly came to
Detroit, the bridegroom coming first,
i and the widow joining him afterwords.
. Their delight at the successful temina
. tion of their romantic adventures was
unbounded.— Detroit free Press,
The Mormons on the Plains.
> A correspondent of the Missouri Dniw
. crat, who lias visited Salt Lake City,
writes to that paper to correct some of
the misstatements of Mr. Frederick Loba
1 in regard to the Mormons. Mr. Loba
■ stated that “ two hundred persons were
i all that survived their trip across the
. Plains, out of the entire emigration of
twenty-five hundred.” The fact is,
that out of an emigration of from 1,000
* to 2,000, about 500 died on the Plains,
e or immediately upon their arrival in the
£ settlements. The truth is bad enough
s without exaggeration.
e
j The extent of the Territory, and va
riety of climate of the United States,
may be realized in the fact that in cer
tain parts of Texas the wheat crop is
1 now ready for the scythe, while at the
£ North it is just beginning to grow.

IITThe Great P r oblcm
Solved !—DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a ,
life-sustaining clement, 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' 1
the sufferer, while bis digestive organization was !
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous suflerer, while tormented by the I
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter-, '
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with j
paralysis, fborne down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack ol
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from the unnatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit j
from the use of this Cordial, which atoncecalms, i
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous l
organization.
Females who havo tried it are unanimous in !
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the ha. ds ot
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a diroct, im
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite.
Whilo it renews tho strength of the digestive
(lowers it creates a desire for the solid material
«hich is to be subjected to their action. As an
ippctiser it has no equal in the Pharma. ;
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed i
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either;
ex or to any age. The feeble girl, the riling 1
'rife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn i
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general do
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willall find immediate and permanent relief from j
tho use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it |
will prove a complete and un&iliug safe guard j
against that terrible milady. There are many 1
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The'
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
lorence to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

HIT Coloring Fluids tor t he
Hair are Dangerous.— Prof. Wood’s Hah
Tonic restores the color, not bv the nitrate oli
silver process, but by a restoration of the
healthy functions upon which the original amt
natural color of the hair and its moisture, its j
loss, its life, and consequently in original
beauty depended. Prof. Wood, at the age of !
thirty-seven years, was as grey as a man of!
eighty, and his hair was dry, thin and dead, i
Now lie lias not a single grey lock upon his |
crown, nor is his hair thin or dry, but soft, pli
ablo and moist as that of a child office years.
This preparation acts upon the roots, for after
an application that portion of the hair nearest
the scalp is found restored to tho original color, j
whatever it was, while the ends of the hair are j
gray. Try Wood’s Hair Tonic, and do not ap
plv any other till after you have this. With
this resolution will never have occasion to use a:
hair dye.
Caution. —Beware of worthless imitations as

PREPARED BY I>R. SANFORII’s
COIIPOISDED KM'IBEI.V FROM
Or XT JVI © .
IS ONE OF THE BEST PURGATIVE
and Liver Medicines now before the public,
I that acts as a CATHARTIC, easier, milder, and
1 more effectual than any other medicine known.
It is not only a Cathartic, but a Uver remedy,
acting first on the Liver to eject its morbid mat
ter, then on the stomach and bowels to carry off
that matter, thus accomplishing two purposes
effectually, without any of the painful feeling?
experienced in the operations of most Cathartics
It strengthens tho system at the same time that
it purges it; and when taken daily in moderate
■ loses, will.strengthen ami build t up with uu
usual rapidity.
The Liver is one of |
tho principal regula
tors of tb e human |
body, aud when it per
forms its functions
well, the powers of the 1
system aro fully de .
vc loped. The stomach I
is almost entirely de- J
peudent ou the healthy -
action of the Liver for !
the proper perform- ,
ance of its functions ;
when the stomach *
at fault, and tho whole '
system suiters in con- I
sequence of one organ ,
—the Liver,— having |
ceased to do its duty -
: For the diseases of that "
j organ, one of the pro
I prietors has made it
| his study, in a prac
tice of more thau 2C ’
years, to find some re
medy w herewith to
counteract tho many t
derangements towhich
it is liablo j
To prove that this
remedy is at last
found, any person
troubled with Liver
Complaint, in any of its 1
forms, has but to try ji
bottle, and conviction
is certain.
These Gums remove i
all morbid or bad mat
ter from tho system, (
upplying in their I
place a healthy flow of l
bile, invigorating the I *
stomach, causing food !|

Ito digest well, purify,
ling (the I load, giving
j tone aud hcalih to the
j whole machinery, re
moving tho cause ot
the disease,—effecting
a radical cure.
Bilious attacks are
cured, aud what is
better, prevented by
the occasional use of
the Liver Invlgorator.
j One dose after eating
[is sufficient to relieve
the stomach aud pre
sent the food from ri
sing and souring.
! Only one dose taken
before retiring, pre
|vents Niglitm ire.
Only one dose taken
at night, loosens the
bowels gently, and
cures Costivencss.
One dose taken after
each meal will euro
Dyspepsia.
One dose of two tca
spoonfuls will always,
relieve Sick Headache.
One bottle taken for
female obstructions,
removes the cause of
the disease, and makes
a perfect cure.
Only one dose imme
diately relieves Cholic,
while
One dose often re
i I mated Is a sure cure
tor Cholera Morbus,
and a preventive oi
Cholera.
Only one bottle is
needed to throw out oi the system the effects ol
medicine after a long sickness.
One bottle taken for Jauudice removes all sal
lowncss or unnatural color from the skin.
One dose taken a short time bo ore eating
gives vigor to the appetite, and makes food di
gest well.
One dose often repeated cures Chronic Diar
rboea in its worst forms, while Summer and
Bowel Complaints yieid almost to tin* llrst dose.
One or two doses cures attacks caused by
Worms in children, there is no surer, safer, or
speedier remedy in the world, as it never fails.
A low Cottles cures Dropsy, by exciting the
absorbents.
We take pleasure in recommending this medi
cine as a preventive for Fever and Ague, Chill
Fever, and all Fevers of a Bilious Type. It ope
rates with certainty, and thousands are willing
to testiiy to its wonderful virtues.
All who use it are giving their unanimous tes
tlmony in its favor.
Mix Water in the mouth with the Invigorator,
and swallow both together.
The LIVER INVIGORAT<>iI is a scientific Medi
cal Discovery, and is daily working cures, al
most too great to believe It cures as if by ma -
gic, even thejirtt done giving benefit, und seldom
more than one bottle is required to cure any kind
of Liver complaint, from the worst Jaundice or
Dyspepsia, to a common Headache, all of which
arc the result of a Diseased Liver.
