Thursday Evening, July 'Za.INSS.
The lentid Route North.
We noticed the other day a reduction
i i the rate of fare, going North, on the
I j wer or Wilmington route. It seems
at reduction is the order of the day.
■Ve were shown a dispatch this morn
g from Columbia, which states that
e fare on the Central R. R. connecting
i.: Columbia, via Charlotte, Raleigh to
"eldon, has reduced therateoffarefrom
iis city, two dollars and fifty cents. In
other column will be found an adver
-ement of the Company, to which we
mid call the attention of the travel
og public. This route is represented
us by those who have traveled over
. as a very pleasant and expeditious
ne—being furnished with new and spleu-
J care, and polite and attentive con
ductors. The accommodations along
he road are also represented to ns as
being excellent. Those who take this
ute going North or coming South,
v ill accomplish their journey as expe
detiously as by any other, and will pass
through a high and healthy country.
Bank Excitement In Memphis.
There is considerable excitement in
Memphis about the way the Citizensßank
of Memphis ha 6 been managed : one or
t wo public meetings have been called to
i ike the matter into consideration. It
appears that the above-named Bank has
nettled with her sister Banks, hut has
left the numerous bill-holders the emp

The Hate Disaster on tilt- Erie Rail
Road.
It was stated that the cause of the re
cent terrible disaster on the Erie Rail
oad was a defect in one of the rails,
>ut when adequate inquiry is made in
incteen out of twenty cases, such ac
idents are found to proceed from some
carelessness in the management by those
intrusted with executive duties.
“ It is now stated that the cars on the
Erie Railroad, at the time of the last
terrible disaster were moving at the rate
of fifty miles an hour. X gentleman
onboard, who became satisfied, from
n u that the cars could not be
in 1 j 1 i i at such speed, took a
oosition n an open f.r»-ig*-t .u, pre
; .red to icap otf, in doing which he was .
considerably injured, In each of the ,
(wo cars thrown off the track, there j
were forty passengers. The particulars j
of the disaster present a horrible state ,
of suffering.” (
Important Decl&loii.
The Court of Appeals of Kentucky has
affirmed the decision of Chancellor Lo
gan, in the telegraph case. The history
• —of the case is briefly this : Mr. A. Camp
made an offer by telegraph to a party in
Cincinnati for a lot of whisky at a
specified sum. In the transmission of
the dispatch over the wires, a mistake
of a quarter cent was made by increas
ing the price offered for it by Camp, and
the party at Cincinnati sold it. The j
whisky was shipped to Louisville and
Camp discovered the mistake. He there
upon brought suit against the telegraph
company, for the difference. The com
pany in their answer, plead the printed
terms and conditions which head their
messages, to the effect that the com
pany do not hold themselves responsible
for mistakes in the transmission of
messages unless the same are repeated,
for which one-half the original price is
charged. The Court sustained this
plea.
Church Dedication.— The large edi
fice erected in Atlanta, for the use of
__the Second Baptist Church and congrc
w gation. was dedicated to the service of
Almighty God on last Sabbath, by inter
esting and impressive services.
ThiJNational Bace Course.— Accord
ing to the Journal, the establishment of
a Notional Bace Course, near Louisville
is a fixed fact. The stock has nearly all!
been takon, and from the character of
the gentlemen who have taken the lead
in the project, we hazard nothing in
predicting that no time will be lost in
carrying it out.

John 11. Scales, Esq.. Editor of (he
Crusader.
This gentleman was chosen to deliver
the regular I.iterary Address, before
the two Literary Societies at the recent
Examination Exercises of thcLnGrangc
Female College. The selection was, in
deed, a good one, and a well deserved
tribute to a young man whose best cn
-1 ergies arc devoted to the promotion of
the best interests of society. His life is
valuable to community—not merely to
; himself. He is useful—one of those
I noble men who continually exert good
> and happy influence upon society.
1 The effort was worthy—it was able—-
1 well conceived and full of vivid fancy,
tart thoughts and withering sarcasm,
; ami lofty eloquence. For more than
one hour the audience hung delighted
* on his words. It was admitted to be
1 ! the most eloquent speech ever delivered
“iin the Institution. Long may Mr.
"Seals live to gather lioquets from the
': garden of literature for the ladies, and
1 j sound, for his countrymen, the toscin
S 1 of alarm.
s We hope that each one of the young
> ladies, of the Hentz and Judson Socie
‘ ties, will send him, at least, onesubscri
s her to his valuable paper, the “ Temper
j ante .Crusader.” Delta.
The Increase In Specie.
2
Early in May last, the hanks of five
’ of the leading cities ’of the United
States had accumulated in their vaults
an amount of specie equal to $04,000,-
000. The decrease since that time may
be estimated at something like $2,000,-
000. The Boston Advertiser, alluding to
these facts, says that the present ple
l thora of gold is a phenomena, which,
|to its actual extent, was impossible
- j twenty years ago, for the plain and suf
‘ | ficient reason, that there was not a suf
-11 ficient amount of gold in the country.
; In the year 1857, the banks held about
- $38,000,000 in specie, the circulation of
gold and silver was estimated at a little
! more than $17,000,000 and the amount
[ absorbed in' plate and for similar pur
. poses was set at $25,000,000. $55,000,-
i 000, therefore, appears to have been the
entire amount of specie available for
purposes of currency, and subject to the
direct control of commercial influences.
It is computed, however, that the
amount of precious metals now in the
shape of plate is $40,000,000, while in
the last year, the treasury had $22,000,-
000, the banks $58,500,000, and the
specie circulation amounted to SIOB,-
500,000. The whole amount of our
specie currency, therefore, exceeded
$18,900,000, and although its distribu
tion has since been changed very ma
terially, the amount held by the hanks
being increased, and that in the trea
sury having fallen nearly to zero, still
the aggregate has probably increased
since the above estimates were made.
Tilt* Purchase of Mount Vernon.
The terms upon which Mount Ver
non has been purchased, as we learn
from the Philadelphia Enquirer, are as
follows :
418,000 00 cash paid to Mr. J. A. Washington.
57,000 oo to he paid on the Ist of .January, 1859
41,606 66 to be paid on the 226 February, 1860
41,666 66 to be paid on the 22a February, 1861
41,666 66 to he paid on the 22d February, 1862
$200,000 00
The deferred payments are to carry
inteiestfrom date, and possession and
title to|remainwith Mr. Washington,till
paid in full,with the provisoof obtaining
possession at any time, by thirty days’
notice, when the Association is prepar
ed, and docs pay the intire amount of
purchase money. The SIB,OOO has been
paid to Mr. Washington, and the
sums now in the Treasury of the Asso- <
ciation, contributed by private persons
and public bodies, and gathered from ]
the lectures of Mr. Everett, are suffi- (
cient to meet the January payment ;
but the means necessary to meet the 1

sequent payments are yet to be rais- J

Interesting Letter on tl»e cattle DU-'
ease.
Millen, Burke Co., Ga., j
July 19th, 1858, \
Editor of Republican :
> My Dear Sir I think I can furnish
, you with a satisfactory solution, as to
what becomes of the buzzards in this
' section of country where the so-called
■ cow disease rages They all die!—as
| everything else will that partakes of
the diseased flesh. I will give you proof
positive, which took place on my premi
ses, last Friday '. oil that morning,after
> washing out the mouths of those of my
, cattle that have the disease, the mop
,! used for the purpose was thrown on the
i ground by the boy having it in his
U charge. A favorite terrier dog, given
!me by one of your citizens,picked it up,
j and was playing with it bv tossing it
"; up and catching it in his mouth and
, I shaking it, During the day, the dog
, was taken sick, moping around all day
J —on Saturday lie was missing: this
! morning he was found dead, his body
i | and head swelled five times their natu
e ral size.
] i The disease is spreading, and will
[continue to spread until it has nothing
• | to work on.
e 1 So far. I have been very fortunate,ha
j ving lost none out of about fifteen head
that have it. The disease yields readi
-11 ly when the properremedies are applied
in time. I use a strong solution of co
pperas water, alum, and saltpetre, with
which I wash the mouth out thorough
' ly, twice a day, (oftener would do bet
i- ter,) and drench with salt and water,
■- and rub powdered alum in the mouth
I find five or six applications to be suf
ficient to produce a cure.
After the cattle pass the founder stage j
with which they are first taken, you
e can t tell whether they have the disease ;
I or not, unless you examine the month, j
g They fall away daily, as they can’t eat
anything. The tongue and gums be- i
come dreadfully swollen and turn black, j
f When they get in this situation, the ,
. best plan would be to knock them in the
head, dig a hole and bury them.
3 You can do as you please with this. I
- If you think the information worth pub '
, lishing, yon can do it; if not, you can j
throw it aside, but my advice to you
and all others, who indulge in beef, is to :
• look sharp, for you know not what you j
. are eating.

f Narrow Efteape.
Yesterdav afternoon, soon after the
; arrival of the Georgia Railroad freight
t train, and while the engineer was en
. gaged in switching off some of the cars, I
the driver of Mr. Win. Marham’B car- i
riage attempted to cross the track near
i the Washington Hall. When on the
■ track one of the horses became unman-1
, ageable, and before the train could be j
stopped it ran into the carriage, break- j
■ ing off the tongue and lamp and disen
i gaging the horses, which ran off, un
, hurt. Mr. and Mrs. Markham were in :
the carriage at tae time; but the former
jumped out, and the latter, with the
assistance of Mr. Murphy, (an employee :
of the Georgia Road,) was rescued from
her perilous situation. We are gratified
to state that, with the exception of
slight damage to the carriage, and a ter- '
lible fright to the parties in the car
riage and a largo number of spectators,
no injury was sustained. —Atlanta Amtr- I

A Microscopic Wonfler,
We have had the pleasure of seeing j 1
recently a microscopic photograph, '
which is truly a very remarkable curi
ositv. Upon the object glass appears aj:
small speck, occupying the space of six ! 1
by seven and a half hundreths of an
inch—about the size of the square lead
in an ordinary lead pencil before it is
cut—appearing to the unaided vision jj
only as a stain or slight discoloration;,
upon the glass. But the microscope re- j
veals it to be a complete copy of the
Declaration of Independence, with the j'
names of the signers in full, containing
no less thaD 7850 letters, every one of {
which is a finished specimen of typo-'
graphy, and the whole, under a high
magnifying power, can be seen with the
utmost distinctness and read with the
; utmost ease. The letters are only one
twenty-four hundreths of an inch in,
1 size, but are perfectly formed and ele- j
Igant. This wonderful achievement of
tlie photographic art was brought from t
I Paris by Mr. D. P. Ives, and is the pro-1
perty of Dr. George A. Perkins. —Salem
Register.
Tired of it.— Some months ago one
of our citizens, Mr. W. C. Gatewood, ;
had one of his slaves, a bright colored j
and witted fellow, named John, to j 1
leave him for a short visit to the Empire r
City of New York on his parole d'honneur. f
The allotted time for his return passed, ■
and John became infatuated with the i
superficial freedom of Greeleyism and ! (
Beecherism. His master gave up all! I
anticipation of John's return. But [
John being what is generally known ‘
and termed, in the locality of his sojoun, 7
as ‘’smart," soon saw through the thin
vapor of his “brother's” Beecher and
Greeley’s freedomisms, and though he 1
was earning slßpermonth‘yet he knew
not how long he would continue, or ,
where he was to find a home when it
ceased ; therefore he sent word to his
master and owner that he desired to f
come home, and requested assistance to
do so. Mr. G. desirous of testing, though
in a measure doubting him, sent the ne
cessary means for John's return and last
night when the steamer Nashville arriv- J
ed here from_New York, so did John, '
who is now assured that “it is not all i
gold that glitters," and that Gotham is :
the locus pemhtentice. and that he is tired ,
of it.— Charleston Mercury HO th inst.

“ Mme. Arnoux Riviere, the person

been in New York for two or three days.
Having withdrawn to a convent in Phil

Southern Merchandise.
A letter from Boston says; “Very
little is done here on the credit system
at present, but the Southern merchants
appear to get far more indulgence and
accommodation than any other class. I
understand that they meet their pay
ments more punctually than the same
!claes from other quarters.”
' We learn from various sources that
! the pecuniary status of the Southern
j merchants generally is better in most
iof the Northern cities than those of the
i merchants from any other quarter.—
I This, it strikes us, should teach the
merchants at least of the Northern
cities, that slavery is|not so corrupting

mootwrites thus :
i Wilto*, N. H., Sept. 10, 1857.
Having had an opportunity to test the value of
r r rof. 0. J. Wood’s Hair Rqs tor alive, I am pre
, pared to say, that it fully makes good its recoin
| meudations, by restoring to more than its orig
inal lustre, hair that has become gray, cr faded
, ! from age or disease. It will give the hair a soft
( (and pliable texture, and what is of still greater
importance than that, it is restored to health ;
it imparts to the whole system its renovati ig,
healing properties, and has a tendency to restore
health and prolong life, and give to the aged the
. appearance of youth. Its unequalled properties
i ought to recommend it to every family. Try it,
I ye who labor under any disease of tlic nead, and
. you will never have to regret its application.
Caution.—Heware of worthless imitations, as
several nre already in the market, called by dif
ferent names. Use none unless the words (Pro
fessor Wood’s Hair Restorative, Depot St Louis,
Mo., and New York), are blown in the bottle.

Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
-1 DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
j course of this extraordinary t.inic. The gastric
1 fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
! the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed atid unstrung, becomes, under the
1 wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by tlie
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
I or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter-
I rors, wakened bv periodical fit-, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
j terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
j nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
i or disability arisingfrom the unnatural condition
i of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
| tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
| from the use of this Cordial, which atonce calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
! organization.
i Females who have tried it are unanimous in
, declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hands of
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate and aston’sliing effect upon the appetite.
1 While it renews the strength of the digestive
! powers it creates a desire for the solid material
which is to be subjected to their action. As or.
i appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en-
I joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not c mfined to either
sox or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de ?
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willall find immediateand permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable r.unvator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
against that terrible m ilady. There are mr.nv
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
ference to the causes, and will not only remove
the di-order itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil

1* is not generally con
ceded that Liver Ceraplaint, or a deranged statu
of the Liver, is the cause of most of the summer
a;ul bowel complaints that visit us during this
season of the year.
Yet some of our first Physicians consider the
Lirf.r the principal cause of these diseases, or in
other words, when it pei forms its functions
properly it enables the system to resist or throw
off diseases of the stomach and bowels, and
where they are deranged the surest cure is to
cure the Liver of its disease and cause it to per
form its proper functions. There is nothing in
the whole world that so quickly stimulates the
Idver to a proper performance of its functions as
DR. SANFORD’S IJVER LNVIGORATOR, which
almost instantly checks Diarrhoea. Dysentery, or
any complaints of the bowels.
The Invigorator acts as a gentle cathartic, yet
it checks all looseness or the bowels from the
time it is taken till the regular operation of the
medicine, some eighteen hours alter, when the
cause of the complaint is removed, the Liver is
invigorated, and health soon follows. The In
vigorator may be taken with perfect safety in
all cases of Dysentery, as it lia- been tried and
used for years lor such complaints bv a largely
practicing physician. jiyS-lm
