doming Dispatrir. AUGUSTA. GA: Monday Evening, July WJ, 1850. Secretary Cobb Turned Legislator. As a partisan leader, Mr. Cobb has no superior. It is to be regretted that the fame which he has acquired, is attribu table rather to his exhibition of skill in party navigation, than to acts of states manship. It is not within our knowl edge, if he has ever originated, or materially aided in any legis lation very beneficial to the coun try at large or to his own section. It is true that such legislation occupies :ias: rtion of the recent histo vof t >.■ cuu ry. It is also true that v’ta: : is touehing the foundation ...id continuaiivo of our liberties as a na tion, have been and still are imperiled. And it is but reasonable to ask that he, who aspires, as Mr. Cobb does, to the highest office, should be able to show that he has undevia tingly struggled to fortify these interests —to secure them from the treachery of unscrupulous men. , No one denies that this gentleman looks to the Presidency, Now, it is not enough that he should be fit, intellec tually and morally, for the office. He must command the unshaken confi dence of the people. To do this it must be apparent and beyond doubt, that his official integrity is unsullied. It is not enough that he should be honest. There must be no fair ground for a charge of political dishonesty. If he has done an act which can justify the suspicion, or give color to a charge, of preferring his own aggrandizement, to the rights of any section, or of any indi vidual, then he is totally unfit to be the chief officer of this Union. No matter how good his real intentions may have been, if he is suspected now. he would be suspected while President; and therefore ■would be unable to quell the conflict of sections. If there should be a blot upon him, there would always be those who, by pointing to that blot, could render abortive all his attempts at me diation. We will not undertake to assign mo tives to Mr. Cobb. We are willing that everybody should have his own opinion of everybody else. But we do under take to say that if the Honorable Secre rary never before did anything of the kind, he has nevertheless, recently done that which may fairly warrant a suspicion that he does prefer his own ad vancement to all things else ; or at any Tate that he will not lend himself to any scheme for rescuing the South, he is himßelf to be the honored instrument in the execution thereof. He has, for some time past, had the reputation of being “more popular at the North than any other Southern man ’—a fame which, to say the least, we regard as being very unenviable.— To our ears, it does not sound like say ing that he is a warm friend of the South! His late arbitrary act in re fusing a clearance to the ship Richard Cdbden, will be looked upon at the North a : vpjehow or other, a thrust at slave v. He admitted that the refusal was base . upo'r, the presumption that the owner, C. A. L. Lamar, Esq., intended to do an unlawful act. He refused, not because permission was asked to do an act prohibited by law, but because he presumed that permission to do a rightful act would be abused to the commission of a crime! Now, neither the glare of the Secretary’s position, nor the fear of giving offence, ought to prevent us, or any other indepen dent editor, from expressing the opin ion that Howell Cobb has undertaken to be the inquisitor of other men’s in tentions, and that, in so doing, he committed an act which might mark a despot. That all the States of this Union ought to prohibit the importation of ’ free negroes, we admit, but when Mr. Cobb travels from his office of execu- 1 ting what is law, to enforce what he ■ thinks ought to ho law, he usurps the * prerogative of the legislator, and fur- * niahes abundant ground for believing, ' that, if he abuses a little power, he 1 would prove a tyrant when invested with much power! We wish it distinctly understood that we do not deem the importation of As- 1 rican apprentices desirable. We wish ' the importation of African slaves, to be held by the same tenure as those among us. We do not agree with Mr. Lamae j as to the propriety of the immediate object which he had in view, but we do sympathise with him in the indignation which he so justly feels at being do , prived of a right which was his under bhe existing law 6. It is beyond dispute that he has been deprived of that right 1 by an arbitrary stretch of power in the hands of an official who takes refuge bohind his immunity from attack in the courts. We hare not seen, in the papers, as general expression of opinion in this subject as we desire. The streets re sound with the declarations of private men, “that Howell Cobb sought, by refusing a clearance to the Richard Cob den, to make political capital at the North.” We sometimes fear that we may say of the South, as Cicero said of his own Republic, “There uas once sucli a public virtue in this community, that upright men would more severely pun ish a traitorous citizen than the bitterest foreign enemy.” - The Enterprise of England. We are in the habit of noting with complacency the progressive spirit of Brother Jonathan, and it is quite true that our vast country exhibits most gratifying evidences of indomitable vi gor and liberal enterprise. But after all our boasting, and all our mammoth achievements and our still more mag nificent projects, our British brethren far outstrip us in the lavish expen diture of money, if they do not get ahead of us in some of our pet under takings. It is said that British survey ors are already in the field surveying a route for a Railroad to the Pacific, to ex tend along the Western shores of Lake Superior, through the property of the Hudson’s Bay Company, to Vancouver's Island, on the Pacific coast. It will pen : etrate the vicinity of the Frazer river . gold region, and if that proves as auri > serous as many anticipate, it will afford f to the road a handsome revenue. The New York Herald mentions as i signal proof of the liberality, fore t thought and enterprise of the moneyed - men of England, the prompt subscrip : tion of two and a half millions to that - doubtful project,the Atlantic Telegraph; t the building of another problematical , concern, the Great Eastern, at a cost of t two or three times that amount; the , Grand Trunk Railway of Canada, con i structed chiefly by English capital, tra« > versing the Upper and Lower Provinces s and connected by a splendid line of rail- F roads with Portland, the American port > of the Great Eastern ; and finally, the ■ project of a British Pacific line,connect s ing with the Grand Trunk Railway ! A i conception, worthy the colossal energy i and capital of Great Britain, and which > if each of the essential links in the gi ■ gantic plan prove practicable, will se cure to Great Britain the commerce of - the world, Athens—Commencement—-Hotels, Ac. On Sunday, August Ist, the Commence- j ment exercises of the State University j begin. It is a favorable period for vis iting that interesting portion of the State, ani we have no doubt large numj hers will embrace that occasion as a stop ping point in their summer wanderings. The Hotels of Athens are unusually large and agreeable—the Newton House by Mr. Crawford,and the Lanier Houso, ' by Mr. Lanier, will afford elegant ac commodations for several hundred per sons, and we know of no place posses -1 sing more attractions in the way of elite ! society, pure air and water, than the town of Athens. Coaches run regu larly to the Madison Springs, to Clarks ! ville, and the romantic regionsof North ’ Eastern Georgia. Let us go to Athens, 1 and if we can spare the time, let us spend a week or two among the wild shades of Currahee, Mount Yonah, and the bounding cascades of Tallulah and Toccoa. j The Liquor Law. Our indefatigable and energetic po lice succeeded, on yesterday, in ferret ing out some eight or ten flagrant vio lations of law, by keepers of low grog geries, in keeping open these •’sinks of iniquity ”on the Sabbath day. Among the number was a female called “Irish Mollt," who has become somewhat obnoxious to ber neighbors. It is to be hoped that our police will not cease their praise worthy exertions, until a stop is put to this Sunday liquor traffic, that is so demoralising in its effects upon our servile population. Hon. W. L. Yancey. We see by our Alabama exchange that this gentleman, on invitation, is de livering addresses in different cities and towns in Alabama, in behalf of the Mount Vernon association. He was to have delivered an address at Bellefort, on the 24th inst. and was invited by the Mayor and Aldermen of Florence to ad dress the citizens of that place on the 28th. We are pleased to see Mr. Y ajjcey engaged in this noble cause. He has talent, is a beautiful speaker, and in his hands any subject to which he gives his attention, will be ably elucidated. Billy Bowleos. —For the benefit of the friends and admirers of this re nowned individual, we append the la test informotion received from him : Col. S. M. Rctuerford, Seminole I Agent, says the Fort Smith (Ark.) Her- j aid, arrived here during the week from his Agency.

Four or five of the Indians died while on their way up. l+, f&“ The Washington correspondent of the Associated Press telegraphs that the Government is “in a fairway to acquire the island of Cuba.” We shall | be glad if the acquisition be made in a fair way.

The Memphis Bulletin of the 24th inst. says : —“ The river at this point continues to rise very rapidly. In the twenty-four hour 6 ending at 7 o’clock last night, the water had come up fully two feet, making a total rise for two days of nearly 30 inches. There was some rain early yesterday morning and strong indication* of more soon. Busi ness at the landing was rather dull. Open Colton. Hon. Geo.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach has lost the power of duly converting food into a life-sustaining element, 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 the sufferer, while his digestive organization was paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the wholesome revolution created in the system, the basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack oi 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 from the use of this Cordial, which atonce calms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it arc unanimous in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the hards of medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect*upon the appetite. While it renews the strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid material which is be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. If long life and the vigor necessary to its en joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to either sex 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 immediate and permanent rellr f from the use of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and UEfailiDg safe guard against that terrible malady. There are many 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 us it exists, without re ierence to the causes, and will not ody 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 s ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, 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 the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly infallible.
