Robert; Toombs for the Bth-Volume of the *'Sur-; veys for a Railroad from the Mississip pi to the Pacific. ’ ’ The J.ate Supreme Court Decision. After tbi repfeated failures of the par ties interested in the broken hanks of '-olumbnsTto secure themselves through '.he decisions of the Supreme Court- in addition to the vexatious delays, and -trange combiiuUians which clogged in vestigation Vrhereverthe cases came up for trial, in the Court below, a des perate expedient was resorted to, which | lias resulted in accordance with their I mofit sanguine expectations.- A new j Judge was to be elected, and it was not j hard to find one whose sympathies weie with the friends of the hanks, and whose uterpretation of the law was favorable to their cause. Old hostilities were for-1 gotten, and those, who had not acted to-i gether forbears, are said to have beseiged the Legislature in behalf of the new can didate. Judge Bennino was elected. The son-in-law /of Col/ Seaport* Jones; his former partner, he is indirectly interest ed in hia estate, and Col. Jokes was a Stockholder in one of the broken banks of Columbos, and suits against him as such, involving large sums, are now pending in Muscogee Superior Court.— By the decision which Judge Binning j has been instrumental in making, these I , ases, involving tens of thousands of j dollars, will be swept away, and his, father-in-law relieved to that extent. The estate of McDugald also, a former client of Judge Bennino, is interested to the amount of about half the capi tal stock of the Bank, which was own ed by him, arid which is all extinguish ed by the recent decision of Judge Bkn vixo, and his client relieved of the pay ment of that amount. We allude to this to show the ex treme delicacy of the position occupied by Judge Bennino, and which, in the opinion of many of bis late friends and admirers;, should have deterred him from presiding, as much from a regard for his own reputation, as for the preservation of the Court from fickleness, or from the possible charge of personal interest on the part of a presiding judge. Judge Benning 9 con nection with these cases, would have rendered it a very delicate matter for him to sit as a juror upon them. And if it would have been unbecoming fer him to sit as a juror, is it not a grievous i and most indelicate innovation for him I Jo sit upon them in the Court of Errors, j to reverse the decision of four courts : before him, and override the enactment; of the Legislature? We have not alluded to the part en acted by Judge McDonald in this de- j cision, because he was not connected 1 with any of the cases before his election. | and had no personal interest at stake. He has doubtless good aud sufficient reasons for the change in his opinions since the decision of 1855. In our investigation of this subject we have been actuated by a desire to di rect public attention to the necessity of -oanc change in the organization of the Supreme Court. With a few precedents like this the public will lose all respect for its adjudicatioa- as a Court of Er-> rors, if in indignation they ■ do not cry 1 out for its suppression as a judicial nuis j ance. It is to aid in fortifying public! sentiment against such a result that we • would awaken general attention to this; late decision, to the end that the next j Legislature may be prepared intelligent ly to throw around it wholesome safe guards, by providing against changes in its decisions, and such other whole some regulations as may make it an honor to the State, and forever secure ■ it from the appearance of corruption, , and from the errors of individual , judgment. Louis Ntpolesu. The inauguration of tho great naval , harbor at Cherbourg is another triumph | of Louis Napoleon. Under Iris auspices. ! ( (says the Richmond Dispatch,) a work is j, completed which not only adds largely j t to the naval efficiency of France, but i e renders practicable a sudden invasion of j t England, before a chanr.ej licet could be j j assembled t<s oppose it. .The London! f Tima has lately declared Cherbourg top be “a standing threat” of Great Britain.j, and connected as it is with Paris-by a railroad whicli could easily transport large masses of troops to the harbor, it is not difficult to believe that the Times may be more than half right. Whilst Napoleon may not desire a rup ture with Great Britain, it cannot he pleasant to his illustrious ally to see the advantage which the French pos- , sess for a sudden descent upon the Brit- . ieh Isles, whenever it suits their inclina- , tion. And, notwithstanding his pacific , policy, the Emperor may well indulge , a gratifying consciousness of power ; when he beholds Victoria, accompanied ’ by two hundred members of the Brit-1 jsh Parliament, gracing by ,their pres ence this grand trinmph pf France. He is now the master of Europe Ob lani, and if he lives long enough, it will not be his fault, if the. Imperial Sceptre does not throw 'along and broad shadow over the sons. .1 V r i ■ Ptvtr In Chnileslon We were shown a letter this morning, 1 from a responsible party in Charleston^, I stating that the Yellow Fever was pre vailing to an alarmiug extent, wd in a j very malignant form in that city. Grit !of seven taken to Roper Hospital, fivfc had died, and the other two wate very ! low. | As our exchanges in that city give no j information in reference to this matter, ! we deem it proper to publish informa tion obtained from private sources. Roguery In New York. There is no end to the devices of rogues, and if there is any place in the 1 world where they display their cunning it is in New York City. The latest dis covery is to apply gas and blow pipes to take out the temper of the steel wards of safe locks, laster which instruments i are used to eni them entirely oufi . , i—■' Homicide In Lincoln County. ! We learn, that on Sunday last, the i Sheriff of Lincoln county called on Mr. James Heggie, to assist him in arresting a Mr. Ezekiel Jeter, who stands charg ied with killing a negro. As they ap j proached Jeter, he fired at them, his ’ ball taking effect in Mr. HsGgik's right eye, producing a painful, and as is sup posed, a mortal wound. Mr. Heooib having a shot gun in his hands return ed the fire, killing Jeter immediately. Mr. Heggie is not expected to survive. He is well and favorable known in this city, and we sincerely hope that the wound will not prove fatal. From Bad; to Worse. We see from our New York exchanges that the ladies of that city are about . introducing a now fashion, which we hope will find no favor South. The new I style of dress is said to be cool and at tractive—no doubt but the latter is the intention—the hack of the dreßS be -! ' tween the shoulders is cut in the shape ! ofaV., so as to display the shoulders, i aeck and a portion of the spinal ver tebrae, the edges of the openings being bordered with lace and connected with the opposite side with silk cord. What next ? This is theage of improvement, and it seems the ladies are determined either to keep up with it or go-abead. Expansions of the skirts we thought had enough—but expanding or leaving [ open the body with the vacuum filled ! up with fine lace and silk cord—oh, my ! Flection. Krntucxt.— The Louisville Courier 1 publishes official returns from seventy counties in the State. In these counties, ’ Mr. Revill, the Democratic candidate for Clerk of the Court of Appeals, getß ' 48,800 votes, and Mr. McKee, Ameri can candidate, 43,792 votes. Accord ' | ing to the returns Mr. Revill’s less is ! 94G; as compared with the race of Gar ; rard (D.) and Jones (A.) in 1857. In the thirty-one counties to hear from the | vote for Garrard was 10,263, and for | Jones 9,566. Should [Revill lose noth-1 ing in these counties his majority would b. 11,705. His election is deemed cer- j | tain by a majority exceeding 10,000! 1 votes. No other officer was voted for ' throughout the the entire State. For j Judge of the di6 1 trict, Mr. Wood, Democrat, has defeat- j ed Judge Wheat, his American competi tor, by about a thousand votes. The district is composed of some twenty odd counties. Japan and Exsg Inbia Ports.— Official intelligence has been received at the State Department, tq the effect that the ports of Aujer, Bantam, Indramai, Jo, j CUerison, Fayal, Pekalongan, Rembaug i Poesoerean, Probolingo, Begockie.l’ana roekan, Banioewansie, Pangool, Qjinti ; jap, and Wynkoopsbani, in the Island of Sumatra, and the port of Sampt, in I Borneo, will be opened to foreign trade , on and after the 3Jst of May next. [communicated.] Gumming, Ga., Aug. 17th, JB6B. , Editor IDispatch: —One of the most will ful murders ever committed in any civ- 1 ilized country, was committed in this (Forsyth) county, oij, the night of the , 7th inst,, upon an un-offensive drunken 1 mAn— Vaughan of South Carolina. The J particulars of the murder as I heard j them to-day from .various sources are these : As the murdered man, Vaughan or Vaughn was returning from a Justice Court to a neighbors house with a par ty of friends, he was followed and kill- i ed after night, as the murderers say, in ' mistake for another man. Vaughan's j friends knowing the party in pursuit, i some three or four, were bent upon 1 j threshing one es their number—jumped off their horses and dodgkd into' the , j thicket, where the whole transaction i was witnessed by them. < Four of the murderers are now in j Cumming Jail, and one yet out. , This being Court week for this couu- ' ty, it is hoped that His Honor, Judge ' Rice, will meet out justice to all. The excitement against the murder- ' ers in this and the adjoining counties is very high, and if their trials come on at this term and they are set foot loose again upon this community, there is no doubt but some of the ring leaders will be Lynched in less than 24 hours after wards. In haste, Buck Horn. — ; —— Death or Col. Pittman, or Marianna. —The Patriot announces the death of this gentleman, on the 3d inst., at Ma rianna, Fla. Col.

Waynesboro, Ga. Aug., 16th 1868. Mr. EniTOR ;—Without any intention i to make reflections upon any of the candidates in the field for the Office of i Attorney General, allow me through your valuable paper to suggest the name of .oic who, though young in | , years is eminently qualified to discharge . the duties of the office.

A friend owns a planta tion fifteen wi 'Us off—on a recent visit he ! caught two young mocking birds, which I were secured in a rage and placed on his wagon. The old birds followed the wagon the whole distance of fifteen miles, and when the cage was taken from the wagon, they procured food and fed the ' young. A Fact, j The Southern Pacific Unllroait. j The general meeting of the stockhol ; ders of the Southern Pacific Railroad j i Company, to be held at Louisville on j the 24th of this month, ought to be; fully attended. In Memphis the stock- j holders residing there and in that vicin i ity have had a meeting, exchanged views and appointed a delegate to re present them. They reiterate their opposition to the deed of trust, and the sale under it, as illegal and void, made[ without the knowledge, consent or rati-; fication of the stockholders ; and express i I their faith in the soundness of the legal j opinion, and professional zeal and capa city. of the legal gentlemen employed in I Texas to contest those proceedings.— j They express faith also in the sense of j I justice of the State of Texas, in sustain- j ] ing the just rights of the non resident I stockholders, arid state their apprehen sions that continued opposition to these | will be a prostration of the enterprise of J all the other railroad companies within ‘ that State. It was propped to instruct j the delegates to require a full investiga tion of all matters connected with the history of the company, but tho proposi tion was withdrawn because it appears that such an inquiry has been oidercd by the company, and may be in readi ness for the meeting at Louisville. 1 Mr. John Delafield, the same gentle- ' man who represented the Tennessee ( stockholders at the New Orleans meet- , ing, was appointed a delegate.—-V.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR DIAL.—TIie dysßcptic patient, whose stomach lias 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 j the sufferer, while hjs digestive organization was | paralyzed and unatrupg, becomes,, under the i wholesome revolution created in the system, the hasis of activity, strength and-healtb. I The nervous sufferer, white tormbntod-W'the acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, TiCtdoloreux J or ordinary headache, afflicted with yagpe ter j rors, wakened by periodical fits, Jfiireatened with ! paralysis, borfte down and dispirited by that 1 , terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of I nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain ; or disability arising from tlie unnaturalcondition ; of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ; ery member with the source of sensation, mo- ; >tion and thought —derives immediate benefit j 1 from th<*ttse of thfe which#! oncedtlms, t | invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous 1 i organization. i Females who have tried it are unanimous in J I declaring the Elixir to bo ; tlie greatest boon that ( woman has ever received from the hards of medical men. Morse’s lavigoratiirg Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect upon the#ppettye While it renews the strength of the digestive 1 powers it creates a desire for tlte solid material ( which is to 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 t 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 biiity or from the weaJcness of a single organ wi 11 all find immediateand permanent relieffrom c the use of this incomparable renoyator. To | those who have a predisposition to paralysis it , Will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard a against that terrible milady. There are many 1 perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- 1 tion that they think themselves beyond the reqeh 1 of medicine. Let not even those despair. The Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re- ; lerence to the causes, and will not only remove | thp disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- I dilution I ; LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush .
