New Book*.
Sew AmericanCycl&pkdia.— We have
alluded to the comprehensive plan of |
this great work, and to its importance
as a compendium of useful information.
When we consider that no complete
- Cyclopedia has been issued in this conn- j
tryffir 30 years, which time has been;
signalized by events more important!
than those that have characterised any l
peiiodofthe nineteenth century, the j
utility, as well as the necessity of such j
a work is apparent. During thati
time we have perfected our railroad 1
and steamboat system, made numerous
startling inventions —tied the two
worlds together with the telegraph, and
vindicated our claim to the front rank,
among the nations of the earth. Alli
the leading characters and incidents of |
this marvelous progress are accurately
brought to view in this new work. In j
addition to this, it is more complete in!
-every department,and for every period, i
than its predecessors.
This volume embraces subjects inclu
ded in alphabetical order from B. E. A. j
to B. R. 0., and among the interesting!
biographical sketches contained iu this j
number are one of Beaumarchais, Thos.
A’Bechet, Beethoven, the Beecher Fam

Fever In Charleston#
We were shown a letter this morning,
from a responsible party in Charleston,
stating that the Yellow Fever was pre
vailing to an alarming extent, and in a
very malignant form in that city. Out
of seven taken to Roper Hospital, five
had died, and the other two were very
low.
As our exchanges in that city give no
information in reference to this matter,
we deem it proper to publish informa
tion obtained from private sources.
We find the above in the Augusta
Dispatch, of Wednesday evening, and
take occasion from it to ask our ex
changes and our country readers, once
more, to refer to and receive our official
reports. “ responsible ” gentlemen
may hear many rumors, and may deem
it proper to communicate them, but we
do not understand it to be the duty of
editors to give publicity to such ru
mors. Os course those who are alarm
ed themselves will seek to vindicate
their apprehensions; and "rumors,” at
such a time, are in abundance, not only
at a distance but even near at hand.
As the Augusta Dispatch deems it ne
cessary to eke out our reports, by pri
vate letters, we add the facts concern
ing the Roper Hospital cases.
Sixteen casesof yellow fever—chiefly
foreigners of very recent arrival —have
been admitted into the Roper Hospital,
since the 11th inst. Os these cases,
four were in the fourtli day at admis
sion, and one died in an hour and a
half after admission.
The deaths in all, under these circum
stances, have been six, leaving ten cases
there still under treatment, pome of
whicli are iu such a stage that no opin-j
ion can yet be pronounced.
To any one acquainted with the habits
and circumstances of the class of popu j
lation which furnishes the cases admit-!
ted to Roper Hospital, it need not bo’
stated that the relative mortality in
such cases is no criterion whatever of
the character of the disease under other
conditions, or of the condition of the j
city, as regards the health and safety of ■
any persons of Southern acclimation. '
We trust that any information which
our exchanges deem proper to give,
will be accompanied hereafter by its
authority, if it is designed to contro
vert any publication that is made offi
cially on authority.
We find the above in the Charleston
Cburier of yesterday morning, and we
are much gratified to obtain a full and j .
explicit statement of the sanitary con- I
dition of that city. The intercourse
between Charleston and Augusta is so
intimate that our citizens feel a deep
and constant interest in the extent to J
which the fever is prevailing ; and we
felt called on to give the statement
of reliable parties to our readers. We ,
are also pleased to observe that the
•‘report” “eked out" through our
correspondent is corroborated by “ the |
facts” of the Courier ; but we assure'J
our cotemporary that we would always
much prefer to look to its columns for ■
information, and trust it will keep its;
readers fully posted in reference to the
health of the city, and thus prevent
the necessity of relying upon private
sources for information.
The Bice Harvest.—Wc learn that

j The Catholic Chim-h In the P. S.
Lender this heading we find somo cu
i lions and interesting statistics of the j
rapid growth of this church iu the
j United States. Fifty years Ugo there
were in the whole union, utie diocese,,
two Bishops, sixty-eight priests, eighty
i churches, two ecclesiastical Institutions,
one College aud two Female Academics.
At the present time there are said to be
forty one Dioceses, thirty-nine Bishops
and two Apostolic vicars, eighteen hnn
j dred and seventy-two Priests, two tiious
j and and fifty-tSiree churches, besides
j eight hundred rcid twenty-nine stations,
| thirty-five eoclesiastical Institutions,
: twenty-nine'Colleges, and one hundred
land thirty-four Female Academies.—
| The Ileraldsnya, taking the number of
j Priests and churches as a basis of com
putation, the Catholic church has in
creased within the last half century,
seven times as fast as the population.
This is truly a wonderful ‘increase,
and it will be news to many of our read
j ers. The Herald remarks :
"These are remarkable facts and sta
tistics, and may well challenge the as
; tonishment and consideration of a'.l
! men. To what cause is this unparalel
! led growth of the Catholic church in
I this country to be attributed t The
principal cause, of course, is to. be
: found in the immense emigration here
! from the Catholic countries of Europe : i
i but still the Catholic emigration shouldl
] tear to that of all others the propor
! tiou of twenty-eight to one, to make!
| that the only cause -and statistics will
show that no such disproportion exists
Still, the immense influx of Catholics:
to our shores must be set down as the
prepondeiatiug cause for this wonderful
growth of the Catholic church here.”

count of the arrival at that port with a

were so elated at the sight of a free

loud as there were a number of per

the following statement for the benefit of the af
flicted :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink ot
tbe grave. During my sickness I was attended
by three physicians in our place, but received
no help. I also tried the various remedies re
commended for such complaints, but they af
forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry, and by using four bottles I was restored
to better health than 1 have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
as strictly true. Betsey Perkin*.
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, of Ilonesdale, who is well
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner.

This invaluable medicine is unfailing in the
cure of all those palnfal and dangerous diseases
to which the female 'constitution is subject. It
moderates all excess and remotes all obstruc
tions, and a speedy cure may be relied on.
TO MARRIED LADIES it is peculiarly suited.
It will, in a short time, bring on the monthly

Each bottle, price One Dollar, bears the Gov

counterfeits.
These Pills • hould not be taken by females
during the first three months of Pregnancy, as
‘ they are sure to bring on Miscarriage, but at any
other time they are safe.
In all cases of Nervous and Spinal Affections,
Pain in the Back and Limbs, fatigue on slight
exertion, Palpitation of the Heart. Hysterics and

JiT The Great Problem
Solved I—DR. 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
i course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric,
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
1 nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
j 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 thht
! terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from 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.
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 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 .
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. j
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en- |
joyinent 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 alliog
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general dc -
bility or from the weakness of a single organ i
willall find immediateand permanent relief from I
the use of this incomparable reno.-ator. To 1
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
against that terrible m iladv. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
tion tliat they think themselves beyond the reach
of nffedicine. 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 disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution
LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush
of blood to tho head, melancholy, mental debil
ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de
s ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys

ness, inability to sleep, distaste incideat to fe
males, decay of the propagating functions, hys

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 lnfiuubie.

j nouncc each aud all of these reports as false,

j The truth is, these opposition gentlemen very
1 ; well know that they must kill off our low-priced

will be exposed, much against their intent
hence their laborious efforts to create theim
