(fitaimj; sisjratc|. AUGU STA, GA: Tlmrstiny Evening, May 40, 1858. The Relived Phyulclan. Dr. H. James, “the retired physican, whose sands of life have nearly run out,” proves to be a man named Oliver P. Beown—who went to New York about two years and a half ago, a “strapped” journeyman printer, from Vermont. He failed in several news paper enterprises, among them, tin *■ Empire City," the “ Golden Dollar," and the “Cheerful Visitor," and deter mined to go into the medicine business. He hired a penny-a-liner to assist in get ting up his plan, and an old man name< Kttvper to personate the “retired phy sican” and opened with the “Cannabis Indica”—a compound purporting to be an extract from East Indian Hemp, a rare medicinal plant, but really com posed of liquorice, slippery-elm, honey, and other simples. His success ind ucea him to go into other medical enterprises, j and we find him selling “Regulating and Purifying Pills,” and the “Excel sior Ointment of India.” He alsi formed a partnership styled Monnet 4 Co., to treat private diseases. He go up a fever and ague remedy, “discover ed by a clairvoyant girlthis he soh under the name of I)r. Tracey Di Lome. He also advertised under tin name of Dr. Horn, to teach anybody i profitable business on the reception o, a few postage stamps. This was to eel patent honey—a receipt for which hi sent for the moderate sum of So. lh also dealt in cosmetics, for the ladies under the name of Madame Julie Mell ville. He is said to be worth SoO.OOi to sloo,ooo—but his sands, as a medi cine man, are doubtless run out, a: the gullible public will hardly buy lib nostrums after the exposures of hin now going the grounds.

The editor of the Columbus Times t Sentinel has just returned from a reoen trip on the Mobile & Girard Railroad and gives a favorable account of tli growing crops in the section of country through which he passed. On the rive lands both corn and cotton look finely ; with regard to corn, particularly, th prospect for an abundance was neve more flattering in that reigion.

The Cartersvilie Express learns fron a reliable source that a wolf has recent ly been seen prowling about the planter tion of Maj. Benham, in Cass county. The Rome Courier tells of a recen tour made by Col. Wade S.

The Farmville (Va.) Journal notices the return from Liberia of two slaves .vho were emancipated by the late Juhr. vVatson, of Prince Edward county. Tin sum of $4,000 was left by Mr. Watson in carry sixty of bis slaves to that “Ile public.” VThey give a very discourag ing account of the trip out and their cieatinent after they arrived. The Journal says: “ Before leaving the ship, the agent »f the Colonization Society induced the emigrants to purchase quantities 01 cheap calico, brass jewelry, &c., assur ing them that they would ueed such ar licles in their new home, but on their | arrival they found they had been de ceived and defrauded out of their mo ney. Tire provisions carried out fur their support for the first six mouths, were sold daily before their eyes, and they were compelled to buy provisions every day, often of very inferior quali fy, and insufficient in quantity. The igent employed by the Society would >ell to the bakers, and the bakers to the j migrants—their own provisions—at exorbitant prices, the agent receiving part of the profits.” On their arrival they only received a half acre of laud, instead of the live icres promised. They found provisions it exorbitant prices, and a good deal of had treatment besides, from the authori ties. They allege that the President of the Colony, if not engaged in the slave trade, connives at it. They have re- turned to slavery, believing i f “That freedom to the negro in Africa is the greatest curse that could possibly ( oefall him ; and that had the Liberians , the means of getting away, seven-eights j if them would gladly return to tile United States, and serve the hardest ( masters to be found in flic South, feel- ! mg that the condition of tire slave here \ -s far preferable to that of the most j favored of the inhabitants of Liberia.” , Hilly How legs In New Orleans. The Now Orleans Delta has an amus- 1 ng account of the proceedings of Billy j] Jowlegs in New Orleans. It says : We called down at tiro Barracks yes- ! erday to pay our respects to the “ex- ] ring of the Florida*,” hut found his excellency drunk, fast asleep, with no j 1 me but l.is young wife by his side, |' vith their youngest born in her aims 1 We were not surprised to see Billy thus, 1 (Mowing his weakness for “fire-water.” We have had the distinguished honor i if meeting the General on several pre clous occasions, and the condition we j t found him in yesterday was by no j means a novel one. I - The fact is, there has been no greater 1 1 Irunkard among the Seminoles, since; iheir separation from the Tallaliasse | tribe, than this same cunning chieftain iowlegs, though apparently totally mi mnscious of what is going on around, vhen inebriated, can never be surprised or made to answer questions which he would not do when perfectly sober. ! The squaws were having a gay time of it among themselves, and, from appear ances, must have indulged pretty free .y. They presented a ludicrous sight, v staggering round with their papooses swung on their hacks, chanting snatch es of Seminole war songs, We chatted for a while with the interpreter, who ; h was not altogether straight, but man j aged to give us the information wished. ! the emigration to the West, of Bow i legs aud his followers, may virtually be I considered the end of the Florida war. j although "ham Jones,” the veteran , ' chief, with about twenty faithful war | riors, still remains and refuses to leave I on any terms. .Sam Jones is said to be one hundred and seven years old, and in li is dotage. He has lost the use of his legs, hut is still powerful in the arms, and is obliged to hop about on a long poie such as used by boys in leap ing. Only one of the Arkansasdelega lion is permitted to see him, and be only, because lie was once a member ol his council. We believe that Captain ; Casey, U. B. A., now deceased, was tin only white man who oversaw him We learned that the Indians do n t leave until Wednesday, during which time Billy will show himself upon ma nyof our principal streets, accompanied by his best looking wife, and will be prepared to give his autograph to those who may he prepared to make presents ! to her We warn our readers —far Bit- j ly, besides being the greatest drunkard, j is the greatest beggar alive. He con- j verses fluently, both in Spanish and j English. On Sunday he went up to the city, j proceeded to the City Hotel, and aftei '[ having registered his name, repaired to j the parlor and amused the ladies con j gregated there by good-naturedly an j swering the many questions put to him. j The ladies were, of course, astonished to find him so well posted, instead of the wild savage they had taken him for. j They plagued him considerably about his small hands, hut Billy said it was j the family mark, and ho was proud of ; them. One of the ladies asked him liow he I came to be so brave. Hilly answered, ’ “1 was born so, madame.” Dinner being announced, he politely i withdrew from the presence of the la dies, and taking the arm of one of the clerks, walked into the saloon and drew up a chair at the head of the table, aud went into the eatables as if he had fared sumptuously all his life. Eiitaiicipallon of the Russian Seifs. A detailed programme has been issued at St. Petersburg regulating the labors of the committees of the nobility con cerning the Emancipation (If the Serfs. In this programme three successive pe riods are indicated for the completion , of the measure. In the first period. , embracing six months, the principles of the emancipation are to be established. In the second these principles are to be -! applied to each property, and in the third a common code of laws is to be I drawn up for the rural population.— j After that delay the peasants ore to oh 3 I taiu all the rights of other tax-paying j classes. But they will remain attached ' to the property until they have pur ] chased their freedom. May Fashions for Ladies, f Double skirts are worn in taffetons * and other light material. They arc both simply hemmed or ornamented by a plaiting a ia vicllie. Flounces also are much adopted, they are now often •* arranged so as not to reach higher than the knee. Sometimes live flounces are so placed as to leave the front breadth uncovered by them, and the interval thus left is covered by bows of ribbon. Plain skirts, which are always made ve ry full, may be prettily trimmed by placing a bow ol ribbon,with long ends reaching to the bottom of the dress, on each seam of the front breadth, about a quarter of a yard below the waist. During the summer, wide open sleeves appear likely to be most in favor. Ba- » •L'ge, grenadine, toile de sole, taffeta de laine, in checks, stripes, or chine ; Chambery gauze, primed muslins, ano *■ Pekin, with colored patterns on a white ground, arc the materials which will It in demand. For full dress, moire antique contin- e ues to be very much in use. Chinese j ind plaid silks in large patterns are also r much worn. Some very pretty dresses are in large /hecks—formed by stripes of two shades j md in the centres small bouquets ol I f >ne or several colors ; this is, perhaps, j f the newest and distinque pattern. The skirts of dresses are worn quite is full as ever. Many bodies are made ! with bands, —and even when these have t long ends, buckles arc invariably worn. Low bodies will be very much worn this | summer, with those pretty fichus so much admired last year. * Silk basqnines arc also much worn, < ind will continue to be so. Thegrelot trimming, headed by a plaiting a la , viele or gauffered, is the favorite. Bonnets arc now worn decidedly lar ger than they were in the winter,point- J ed in front, some of them even bending ; over the forehead. White crape cover ed with black spotted net is much worn; whilst others are made of white crape or tulle, trimmed wiii lilac, pale green < pink’ blue, or plaid ribbons. For dress bonnets chip is most in fa vor. One of these was trimmed with a fringed bow, mauve and white, placed ; : on the left side ; a blonde veil falling > i over the crown and curtain. Flowers and blonde are more used i than feathers in trimming, audit is said j that they will continue to be so during I the summer. Bonnets are much less trimmed than j | they were. - Items ofPoreiga News.

In the late foreign nows we find a I -tatemeut that the crops of Egypt are I likely this year to he deficient". It was j stated last autumn that the Nile had risen imperfectly, and fallen rapidly.— j In consequence of the inundation of the ] land being deficient, and of short dura j cion, it is now stated that the grain j | crops in the provinces of Upper Egypt, I and the cotton crops in the Delta and! j the eastern districts of Lower Egypt, | wifi be deficient in quantity and poor in ! i quality. It is known that the negleot j ed state, for some years past, of the ca ! nals for rrigation throughout the coun- I try, which have been allowed to get | choked up by the mud deposits from i the Nile water iwith which they are tilled at the period of the inundation), | has greatlycontribntedto this disastrous | result, ’ihese canals, intended to serve |as reservoirs for the water which is re quired for irrigating more especially the | cotton growing lands during the spring jand summer months, are already near |ly dried up, and the cotton plants— i which require being wptebed constantly jduring the hot season, which is done by i raising the water artificially from the canals—will either perish altogether or produce little cotton, and that of a very ; inferior quality. ' This state of things will affect serious , ly the fellahs of Egypt, as well as the 1 trade of Great Britain. Three fourths of tiio exports of Egypt go to Great Britain, and arc paid for the British manufactures, chiefly cotton mauufae • hires, coals iron and Machinery. The ' trade, too, is carried on almost exclu sively in British vessels, and lire amount of it, as shown by the Board of trade re • turns, has been, for the last ten years, larger than the British trade 1 with any one of the continental States, j, except Russia.— Ex.
