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 ? Doesticks, Jr. Tine Kloqnence. 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. Captain Phillips, the leader of a party called the Thugs, was brutally murder ed VV ednesday night at New Orleans. Literature Among the Celestials. The Emperor of China does not appre ciate costly' presents from “ outside bar barians.” The magnificently bound copies of Audubon's Birds, of America, S and Wilkes’ Exploring Expedition', 1 which our Government sent him, have fc been found recently in the hands of i Canton book-pedlars, who were offering them for sale at a mere trifle.

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 LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self de -1 ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys-i •■Mvbn general prostration, irritability, nervous ); ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys ' teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of i the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from : whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli- j ; mice to be placed on human testimony, absolute- j ly infallible.

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.

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.

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.

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.
