AUGUSTA. GA:
Wedneaila; Evening, August *s,lßftß.
NO x KS BY THE WAY.
Marietta, Ga., Aug. 22,1868.
Dear Dispatch: —Leaving Augusta by
the Saturday evening train, at this sea
ton of the year, one is struck with the
crowded state of the cars, and ready to
wonder what has set such atideof travel
in motion. But as the train speeds on,
•nd the conductor announces one after
another of the way-stations, the crowd
gradually diminishes, and by the time
we reach Atlanta, there is for those in
timed to sleep, ampfe room to roll
themelves into horizontal angularity on
the empty seats.
The solution of this state of things is
the number of families who are spend
ing the summer in the towns and vil
lages out of the city, whose paternal
head pays them a Sunday visit. Going
to wife’s house is a luxury which is not
denied even to the dusky sons of servi
tude, and it is sometimes interesting to
•bserve the throng of anxious faces at
the depots, watching for the expec
ted one. And as one after another steps
from the car, what a flush of gratified
affection reveals itself, in the fond
greetings of the expectant ones. Baby,
with a spotless frock, is borne to the ve
ry car-steps to get the first kiss, and
«yes, almost gushing with tears of de
light, gaze modestly out from the depot
window, while signals of welcome are
seen in the waving of handkerchiefs
from the waiting carriage, or from the
shady piazza of the summer home, dim
ly visible through the shade that em
bowers it. Then comes the package of
knicknacks—the huge watermelons— |
and the mysterious boxes, containing j
nameless tokens from the cousins, and |
uncles, and—&c\,—left behind.
But there are faces here and there, for
whom Saturday night brings only dis
appointment, perchance not even a to
ken of remembrance. They turn away 1
with sad hearts, wondering why he j 1
did not come. And there’s somebody's | !
body, too, sent perhaps half a mile
through the sun, doomed to trudge a !
weary half mile back again, without
a kiss of welcome—or so much as a j
' <
package of candy to console its grief.— j
And, as the train speeds on with its liv
ing freight, one after another of scenes
like these meet the eye, and perchance
touch the susceptible heart.
Toot—toot—toot —goes the whistle,
just as we pass the high bridge of the
Chattahoochee. “What’s broke '!" and !
forty heads peer out of less than forty j
windows—and an unfortunate inebriate 1
is dumped off the platform. He lost his;
hat a few miles back, and because the'
conductor wouldn't stop, he became j
boisterous and disorderly. Toot—toot —
goes the whistle again, and we speed by
the reeling man, whose red and disor
dered hair streams over a very red and
disordered face, while we see him shake
bis fist at the passing train, shouting
w'.th oaths, “You are no gentleman, sir:
you are a drunken rascal, sir.” Wheth- ,
•r be meant the conductor or the loeo
m >tive, it matters not, for we go quiet
ly along and leave him to plod on to the
next station, reflecting on the loss of
his hat, and indulging in lusty epithets
on the management of the State ltoad.
The conductor who puts off men when
they are drunk deserves the thanks of
thejtraveling Ipublic.jjfcln this instance
Bell was the man, and lie certainly ex
hibited the true metal.
The up-country presents no aspect of
novelty, and hence you must pardon
this trifling epistle. I expect to pass on
up among the mountains, in a day or
two, and shall keep you advised of any
thing that turn up.
g Lingo,who was in jail for killing Du
ncan, at Powder Springs, got out a few
days ago, through the assistance of a
man supposed to be his brother. He I
was caught again, and is now chaiued to |
the floor.
The jail iscarefuily guarded, and all!
efforts at escape will he attended with j
danger. The inmates a few nights ago, j
to test the vigilance of the guard,
stealthily dropped an image of rags out
of a window, and before it reached the
ground it was literally riddled with j
balls.
This section has been visited by copi
ous rains,ami crops promise to be abund
ant. There are, however, sections that
have suffered much by the drought.—
Wheat is coming in rather slow, and
brings from 50 to 75 cents—the former
price being for the poor qualities, dam
aged by the rußt. Corn is worth 43to'
45 cents, and but little is offering.
Yours, A.
Cartirsvillb, Aug 24. 1858.
Dear Dispatch: —That “distinguished
visitor,” the first bale of new cotton
made its appearance in this market late
thU afternoon, from the plantation of
Lewis Tumlin, one of the wealthiest
planters in Cherokee Georgia. The lit
tle stranger (it was a medium sized bale,
only,) classed Good Middling, and was
*old to Mitchell & Willeford at 13 cts.
Wheat is coming iu freely at this,
place, about 40,000 bushels having been
received up to this time. The quality
is said to be better than in most of this
-section of the State, and the market
price for good red, which comprises
most of the wheat of Upper Georgia, is
75 to 80 cents per bushel. Corn is com
ing in freely, and sells readily at 45 cts.
: Cartersville is quite an important grain
■! depot, and is also a very considerable
. cotton market. Alout 5,000 bales are
I received here annually. The trade of
: the place is improving and embaces a
’ large scope of fine farming lands in
■ Cass, Gordon, Cherokee, Polk, Punld
; ing, Pickens, Gilmer and Fannin coun
-1 ties.
1 The trade is well-divided among a
class of very enterprising merchants,
some ten or fifteen in number, among
I whom are some old residents of Augus
. ta. They enjoy banking facilities
through three bank agencies. The bar
is ably represented, notwithstanding
the Court House is at Cassville. There
are good schools in the place, and all
the elements of a vigorous and elevated
community, among which I should
mention the new sprightly newspaper
organ, by my friend Smith, who dis
covered a torpedo on the railroad last
winter, and has lately found a “mare’s
nest” in the management of the same
institution.
The gold mines at Allatoona is crea
ting quite a gold fever, hut owing to
disputes about titles, but little has yet
been done on the richest veins.
Fine Flour Mills aro springing up in
all this section, and this interest must
become a leading one in all this end of
the State.
Maj. Cooper lias his railroad in opera
tien to his Flour Mill, and a vigorous
movement is on foot to extend it up
the valley of the Etowah to Canton.
Dr'. Lewis, of the State Road, has
been quite sick again, but is new recov
ering. The management of the Road
continues to he a topic of discussion, by j
those who take a deep interest in the
property of the dear people, but every
thing seems to be going on very smooth- j
iy. The delay of the mail 12 hours iu
Atlanta, is certainly a most important
objection to the present schedule, and :
is seriously felt by business men' along j
the route. It ought to be carried on'
the express train which leaves Atlanta j
at 5, A. M. A.
The Result in Kansas—Hon. A. H. j
Stephens.
We said last winter, while the Kan j
sas war was raging in Congress, that we
could anticipate no good to the South
from the acceptance of Leeompton.—
We do not, now, regret that Kansas has
failed to become a State, since we do
not conceive it desirable that 6he should
send to Washington any more Freesoil
Senators and Representatives. Consti
tuted as her population now is, we are
willing that she should remain out of
j the Union until doomsday.
But our purpose now, is to make
I some observations upon the Englisli-
Stbphbns-BHI. We have withheld a
i full expression of opinion upon the
merits of that farce, that we might
support our position by pointing to the
result.
To the Hon. A. H. Stephens has been
generally conceded the honor of having
originated that humbug. To him cer
tainly therefore belongs the honor of
all that the South has won in the late
1 rejection of Leeompton, by the people
of Kansas.
Mr. Stbfhens, in the House, was re
garded as the leader of all those who
demanded the unconditional admission
of Kansas under the Leeompton Con
stitution. In this position none were
more vehement than he. He asserted
that he stood upon principle, that he
called only for the full measure of
light to the South. Now if that posi
tion was based upon a just principle, it
could not be abandoned by him with
out a desertion of the just rights of the
South. Yet here, before our ej’es, stands
the fact, that Mr. Stephens claimed a
certain thing for the South, hut consen
ted to an arrangement by which that
thing has been totally lost to her!
He demanded Leeompton, but sold it!
; The rights which he said the South had,
| have been lost by Ids own proposition !
Had he faithfully and uncompromise
! ingly adhered to his first position,
which he said was a correct one, he
might, it is true, have been voted down,
but no charge of inconsistency could
have been made against him. He could, j
in that case, have replied that superior
numbers overwhelmed him. But lie,!
shaking hands with English ! as hitter!
an enemy as Leeompton ever had—lie
it was who brought forward the Con
ference Bill, by which Douglas and
English have gained all that they ever
contended for!
To our mind there has never been
more than one light in which the
I whole transaction could be viewed.—
The event has nowise changed our opin
ion. To us, and we believe to every
candid man, the passage of the English
Conference Bill, by the votes of men
who had previously clamored for Le
comptou, stands forth clothed in all
the deformity which can attach to a
sacrifice of principle upon the altar of party.
We do not mean to say that all who
gave a final assent to the measure ap
proved it. We know there were men
among its supporters upon the last vote,
who did not hesitate to denounce the
“ scheme of adjustment,” as dishono
rable, and certain to produce no good
result. But they gave a reluctant as
! sent. Among their reasons for so doing
: may have been considerations like
* these. At the South, Mr. Stephens lias
5 for some years past been looked upon
- as the champion who alone could and
* would rescue Slavery from the hands of
1 the Philistines. He has held himself up
8 las a Savior temporal, prophecying a
8 ' speedy and certain destiuction to Sout li
ft ern interests if his advice were not fol
-1 lowed, but promising an ultimate tri
-1 umph over all enemies, if he were al
* lowed to guide, Had the English Bill
' been defeated for the want of the few
votes of those Southern members who
* are not under Mr. Stephens’ thumb, he
' would have returned to Georgia, on the
’ one hand, to picture the ineffable good
which might have been secured under
the bill—on the other hand, to utter
anathemas and spit sarcasms at those
[ who had declined to sustain it. Had
the Bill been lost, he could have drawn
upon a vivid imagination to set it forth
os a mine of blessings. But he had his
own way. The Bill passed. The elec
tion in Kansas has passed The Le
compton Constitution is gone forever.—
Kansas will be a free State. We now
wait with curiosity to hear how—by
what sophisms, he will make it appear
■ that “ I ” won for the South a tremen
dous victory iu the English Bill! The
people would now be glad to see him
on the Stump. But “discretion is the
better part ” with him. He has re
treated to the West, that he may he
nearer his enemy (?) Douglas! Self-de
fence will he a less difficult task to him
in Illinois, than in Georgia.
Now we do not intend to be under
stood as saying that we consider Mr
Stephens wholly responsible for the “let
ting down” from the first position, ;
which demanded Leeompton, uncondi
tionally. All those other members,
must show their responsibility who ap
proved the backing down. We only ;
allude to him by name, because he was j
of the Conference Committee, and be
cause he led in the struggle for that
which he should have been the last to
yeild.
Now we ask this simple question—
wherein would the South have been
worse oil than she is to-day if Mr. Ste
phens, and his coadjutors, had maintain
ed an nuyeildiug demand for Lecomp- 1
ton ? The worst that could have hap- \
pened. has happened—a re-submission i
of the whole question to the people of
Kansas. *
Cable Jokes.
The successful laying of the Atlantic
Cable lias led to numerous jokes and
witticisms, but we have seen none
as good nor as original, as an occurence
which took place on the Morse Line
when completed to this city, between
two operators. One of the operators,
stationed at Columbia,was an American,
the other, stationed at Camden, was an ;
Irishman. They had telegraphically en
tered into a serious quarrel about some
dispatch in which a mistake was made.
We were seated in the office iu this city
anxiously waiting for a message—the
register was in motion, and the operator
busy in noticing Us workings. All at
once he burst out in a loud laugh, and
on our inquiring the cause of his mirth,
he said he had been listening to a quar
rel between the operators in Columbia
and Camden, and that the Camden man
had concluded it,after using some harsh
expressions, with the ttireat that “if
his legs were long enough he tcould kick Colum
bia off his stool.”
fef” Seventy five thousand dollars of
the stolen money of the Hatters Bank of
Connecticut, have been received. It
was left at the residence of one of the
officers, in a black leather valise. No
clue, as yet, has been obtained of the
robber. SII,OOO is still missing, about
$7,000 of which is in specie. The rob
bers, no doubt thought that, by disgor
ging the above sum in paper, that they
would escape the hot pursuit of the of
ficers, who were to receive five p 1 r cent
on the amount recovered.
Taxes.
We see by a notice of the Treasurer
of the State, published in the Federal
Union, that the Tax Collectors are au
thorized to take the notes of the Bank
of Fulton and the Bank of Athens, in
j payment, the above tiamed banks hav-
I ing made their returns to the Governor
! as required by law.

HP Cure the Diver.—There is ’
an article selling throughout the country that 1
has attained the widget celebrity ever known as 1
a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
cnee to I)R. SANFORD’S IXVIGORATOR, OR j 1
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al- 1
most too great to believe, were it not for the mi-1 1
doubted evidence that accompany tbe testimo- 1
uials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility
that so often bathes tbe skill of our most eminent
physicians.
Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of the
eminent physicians of New York, and it is said,
most of his cases were treated with the Invigo
rator with such invariable success that he has
been induced to offer it as a family medicine, and
let the world have the benefit of his discovery.
If those who are troubled with debility, head
ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, will try
a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—

verdant young and old of both sexes. Such is
not the character of PROFESSOR WOOD'S HAIR
RESTORATIVE. This gentleman comes before
the world wit 1 out any “high falutln” Xilophlo
forium, or any other astounding and startling
catch penny term : he s’mply advertises u Hair
Restoratuv— what it expresses, precsely—and
as a Restorative it acts. Buy Prof. Wood’s Hair
Restorative, and as you value your scalp, aye,
your very brains, apply nothing else ; for it may
be that you will get some worse substance than
perfumed lard oil on your cranium. Remember.
Wood’s Hair Restorative for the hair is the best
article extant. aulS 2w
dTCiire of Diseased Liver.
—Hojtssdale Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—>lr.
Stern W. Fowlk—Sir : You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the benefit of the af
flicted :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to tho brink ol
the 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 nf
forded me no relief.. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wistar'x Balaam of Wild
Cherry, aDd by using four bottles I was restored
to better health than I have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be reliod upon
as strictly true. Betsky Perkin.
The abovo certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, of Honesdale, who is well
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner.

JF The Great P r obleni
Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patieut, whose stomach i
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
life-sustaining element, i 3 relieved by u single
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric, i
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and tbe crude (
nfftriment, 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 l>y the
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tie-dolorcux ,
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter-
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with t
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that 1
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack ol 1
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- .
lion and thought—derives immediate benefit '
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
Females who have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be tbe greatest boon that t
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 creatos a desire for the solid material
which is to be subjected to their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the l’harmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to it« en
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed oi
precious worth t 1
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, tbe victim of nervous depres- ‘
sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willall find immediateand permanentroll- f from
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 m ilady. 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 i
| F.lixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
j .’erencc to the causes, and will not only remove
j the di-order itself, but rebuild the broken con
’ stitution

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

the heart, impoteucy, constipation, etc., from

ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute
