AUGU STA. GA:
Wednesday Evening, Jnly !JS, 183 H.
Beware of day Deceivers.
Perhaps we can give the unsuspecting
and inexperienced portion of our fair
friends, who are visiting the watering
places for the summer, no better ad vice,
than to beware of the gay chevaliers
and insinuating fortune-hunters which
throng the Mountain Meceas of the
country at this particular season.—
There's never a sparrow skims the morn
ing-air hut is in danger of Borne naughty
hawk—and every pretty gudgeon of a
country girl, or brilliant gold-fish of a
city belle, that finds her way to there
salubrious waters of our popular resorts,
is in danger of assault from pikes or
landsharks, which sport the guise of the
finest fish that swim.
Girls, beware of these fellows. They
will come around you in the garb of
gentlemen —represent themselves the
sons of planters in Texas—of retired
merchants, or, perchance, men engaged
in business on their own account. They
will lavish killing smiles upon you—
flatter you with every attention in the
ball-room—walk to the spring with you,
and invite you to ride in the country.
If you are rich, they will endeavor to
ingratiate themselves into the favor of
your friends—and they are generally
masters of all the little blandishments of
•oquetry, and the airs of romance.—
Ton cannot do better than to keep them
at a distance. Their attentions can do
you no good, and may deprive you of
the respect of those who know their
worthlessness, and whose respect would
be valuable. We have known men
who were drunk, all day to be stars of
the ball-room at night, and it is time
young ladies learned to discriminate be
tween a painted popinjay and a polished
gentleman. This “fancy stock” usual
'v com ute a large number of the lead
’tert; in the ball-room at the
Springs
And unsophisticated young swains
will find whited sepulchres among the
gay belles of the ball-room also, and in
numbers by no means limited. Super
anuated coquetes and mysterious sylphs
from unknown spheres, usually shine
in the charmed circle of the fashionable
watering places, and he or she may be
set down as verdant who is easily en
snared by the fascinations they assume.
Os course in the quiet retreats of our
Southern summer hotels there are many,
young and old, of enduring charms and
solid worth—but no place where pleas
ure-seekers congregate, is secure from
male and female adventurers who are not
what they seem. Therefore let all be
ware—and let the romantic notion of
marrying, or seeking to marry stran
gers at these places, be very cautiously
entertained, lest marrying in haste
should plunge you into the unpleasant
pastime of repenting at leisure.
The Sberilt' of Chatham.
This officer had writs placed in his
hands against Ransom Rogers, Andrew
J. Rogers, and Charles F. J. Singleton |
who resides about five miles from Sa
vannah, which he placed in the hands
of i.isPt; itvto serve. He endeavored
to d' •. but neeting with resistance
co* being M.i . returned to Savannah
and infoi ine> : ieriff Russell of the fact.
The Sheriff summoned assistance and
proceeded to serve the writs himself,
when he was met by Singleton with a
loaded gun in hisliand, cocked and aim
ed at him. Fortunately he was nigh
enough, with the assistance of some of
bis posse, to wrench the gun from Sin
gleton, and then arrested him. The
other parties made their escape. Sher
iff Russell deserves credit for the nerve
displayed by him in the execution of
his duty, and his example should be |
more generally followed by our law of
ficers.
Bank Note Reporters.
We have often wondered at the ex
traordinary number of these publica
tions that have made their appearance
in the northern cities for a year or two
past, evidently far beyond anything
like the public demand for such infor
mation as they contain. The secret is
beginning to leak out.
The Philadelphia North American of 1
the 22d instant, publishes a.long official j
report of the Legislative Investigating
Committee, on the affairs of the Tioga,
Crawford, Phocnixville, Shamokiu and
Octarara banks. It says, among other
things :
A startling revelation is made by the '
committee relative to the bank note re-
Proof seems to have been af
forded that some of these publications
are blackmail sheets, which quote banks
in good or bad standing according as
the conductors are feed. Letters and
circulars are described as being sent to
banks, requiring immediate correspond
ence or a personal visit, to make certain
arrangements, on pain of disagreeable
consequences.
Resignation. —lt is mentioned in a j

[Written for the Dispatch.]
Me. Editor :—ln glancing over the
columns of your neat little pa
per, which is such a favorite of
mine, (it is unnecessary for me to tell
you that my acquaintance with the Die
patch has long since ripened into love)
, I see there no notice of the Commence
’ ment at Oxford, which came off so bril
r liantly last week. As I was a “looker
’ on,”I will give you a few “items” which
I hope will be acceptable to your nu
l merous readers.
Oxford, as we all well know, is a
charming little town, made famous
through all coming time by Emory Col
. lege, which sends forth annually a long
| list of graduates. This Institution is
t under the control of President Thomas,
, who discharges ably the many duties
which fall upon his shoulders.
But to my theme. The Commence
ment sermon was preached by Bishop
Pearce. It needs no eulogy from a pen
so humble ns mine, for the love and
■ veneration which everywhere follows
, that name, will easily paint what I can
not. Those who expected a grand fan
cy flight may have been disappointed—
but Bishop Pearce need not indulge in
the flowers of oratory, or fall into so
. phomoric declamation to win a name—
iiis reputation is too well established.
On Monday night, the 19th, the So
> pliomores contended for prizes; and
F very creditably did these youthful aspi
' rants for honor acquit themselves. Our
f townsman, P. A. Pight, delivered an
* original speech, the suqject of which
1 was “Sophs behind the Scenes.” You
> may imagine the shouts of laughter and
f bursts of applause when he “showed
r up” the dandy, the poet, and other no
i ticable persons of the class. By partic
-1 ularly noticing this, I mean no injustice
F to the rest. The boquets and smiles
! which greeted them, showed how well
■ they were appreciated. J. H. L. Rob.
I erts, of Macon, won the first, and A. J.
' Jordan, of Barnesville, the second prize.
On Tuesday,the Junior Class electrifi
: ed a large and appreciative audience
by their well written, well-delivered
i speecLes. This Class is an honor to the
> College, and can boast of more than the
1 usual share of talent. Where all did
well, it may be wrong to particularize,
i But I was particularly pleased with the
speeches of N. N. Mixen —
“ Vain phantoms flit
Where stabler things should be.”
R. T. Hardeman, whose remarks on
Georgia were sensible and to the point, i
• J. W. Heidt, who nobly represented
our sister city, Savannah. N. W. Miller,
who is grace and eloquence embodied ;
and W. T. Revill, whose clever and
humorous poem put everybody in a good
humor. If you wish to see it, you have
only to look in some coming number of
the Bainbridgo Argue, where you will
find it, lacking the eloquent gestures of
the speaker, and the strains of martial
music, which followed it, but readable
and clever anyhow.
And now we come to the “day of
days,” the day when everybody was
out, when everybody wear their "best
clothes,” when crinolines “tried them
selves,” and got mashed, of course—in
ja word, Commencement Day. Julius
Peck, of Cedar Town, delivered the
Salutatory. To J. F. Senife fell the
Valedictory to the Trustees and Facul
ty, and J. B. Hunnicutt, of Coweta
county, Valedictory to President and
Class.
Seldom have I seen a Graduating
Class, who showed off to better advan
tage, or who gave nobler evidences of
talent, and scholarly training. Old
Emory may well remember her Gradu
ates of fifty-eight, with pride and plea
sure. Below we give their names :
Julius Peck, Cedar Town ; W. T. Ir
vine, Oxford ; H. L. Wilson, Atlanta;
J. M. Belcher, Newton county; Y. J.
Allen, Granitville; E. E. Pound, Staf
fordsville; F. P. Collins, Oglethorpe
county ; B. F. Gilhen, Oglethorpe co.;
J. W. Simmons, Pike county; J. V.
Woodson, Covington ; S. P. Orr, Jack
son county ; J. G.Hill, Houston county;
H. R. Dawson, Columbus ; W. D. Tutt,
Lincoln county ; W. A. Turner, Newton
county; F. L. Little, Harris county ;
T. T. Doranger, Lexington ; J. F. Scaife,
Stewart county ; J. B. Hunnicutt, Cow
eta county.
J. V. Woodson gave us a humorous!
i speech, subject—
“ Beauty is but skin deep,
Ugly’s to the bone,”
! which set the audience “in a roar. "It was
: well-written and well-delivered. E- E.
Pound spoke eloquently and well—so
did J. W. Sinnnons and S. P. Orr -so,
in fact, did all. W. D. Tutt and F. L.
i Little, won laurels for themselves, and
neither will be easily forgotten. Mr.
Tutt’s theme was “Re-opening the Af
rican Slave Trade,” and nobly did he
treat it, in his earnest, enthusiastic
manner. The Literary addresses of J.
J. Jones, and Mr. Woolsey, of Alaba
,ma, were well received. And the ad
i dress of Dr. Means before the Few and
Phi-Gamma Societies, was the beet we
ever heard on a like occasion. But Dr. j
I Means needs not my praise, he is too I
! well known.
h a
When the next Commencement comes
2 off, I shall certainly be there to see, (to
- quote tho words of an aged minister)
f “if nothing happens and it don’t rain,
1 and it's more than likely I'll be there
- anyhow.” Rena.
How Is Tills }
" It will be seen by our shipping list,
that the steamer Catawba, arrived at
r Savannah from Charleston, to go into
1 dry dock for repairs ! This looks well
for the mechanical reputation of our
sister city of Savannah.

i The East India trade has been during

markets of the Americas, the shipments
have enormously declined, those to India
and China have proportionately increas
ed, notwithstanding the distracted po
litical condition of those countries

ment :

Having had an opportunity to test the value of

pared to say, that it fully makes good Its recorn

1 j inal lustre, hair that has become gray, cr faded
| from age or disease. It will give the hair a soft

importance than that, it is restored to health ;
it imparts to the wl cle system its renovatl 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
ought to recommend it to every family. Try it,
yo who labor under any disease of the nead, and

J ceded that Liver C«mplaint, or a deranged state
I I of the Liver, is 'the cause of most of the summer
j and bowel complaints that visit us during this
I! season of tl.e year.
. | Yet some of our first Physicians consider the
. Liver the principal cause of these diseases, or in
j other words, when it pel forms its functions
■ I properly it enables the system to resist or throw
I 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
1 tho whole world that so quickly stimulates the
■ I Liver to a proper performance of its functions as ,
DR. SANFORD’S LIVER IN'VIGORATOR, which
, almost instantly checks Diarrhoea, Dysentery, or
any complaints of the bowels.
The Invigorator acts as a gentle cathartic, yet
it checks all looseness of the bowels from the
time it is taken till the regular operation of tho
medicine, some eighteen hours alter, when the ,
cause of the complaint is removed, the Liver is
■ invigorated, and health soon follows. The lu
vigorator may be taken with perfect safety in
: all cases of Dysentery, as it has been tried and
used for years for such complaints by a largely
! practicing physician. jlyß-lm

i Solved f—DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patieut, 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 gfistric i
j fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude •
{nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to 1
! the sufferer, white his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the.
j wholesome revolution created in the system, the
J basis of activity, strength and health.
| The nervous sufferer, white tormented by the
| acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter- j
j rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
| paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
' tenibielassitude which proceeds from a lack ol
I 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- J
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit *
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms,
invigorates aud regulates the shattered nervous 1
organization.
Females who have tried it are unanimous in a
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman ha.s ever received from the hards ol
j medical men. a
J Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im- f
I 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 to be subjected to their action. As an j
j appetiser it has no equal iu tho I‘harmacopia.
Iflonglile and the vigor necessary to its en* <
I joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of <
I precious worth 1
j 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 x
man of business, the victim of nervous depres- f
sion, the individual suffering from general de j
bility or from the weakness of a single organ 1
will ail find immediatcand permanent rcl!< f from f
the use of this incomparable renovator. To ,
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
against that terrible milady. 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 as it exists, without re*
,'erenco to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution <
