Satui'inV Evenlngi Augait 2S, 1858.
ABU\e r and Three llundmt Africans*
brought Into Charleston.
git will be seen (says the Savannah Re
publican of 28th inst.) from the despatch,
that the brig Echo, of Baltimore, has
been captured off the coast of Cuba, by
the U. S. brig Dolphin, and brought into
Cfearlested, having on board three hun
dred African slaves.
'pjjjg, wc believe, is the first instance
of the capture of a cargo of slaves by
an American cruiser, and our readers
may be curious to know wbat disposi
tion is to be made of the ship, slaves,
Ac. The act of 1840 provides that the
officers and crew of the captured vessel
shall be turned over to the U. S. District
Court to be prosecuted under the laws
of Congress.
The ship and her properties of every
description to be sold, and the proceeds
to be divided, half to the United States,
\ and the other half to the officers and
men who seized and brought the vessel
into port, under the laws regulating
prizes. The slaves are to be delivered
to the United States Marshal of the Dis
trict where landed, and the President
to make such regulations and arrange
ments as he may deem expedient for
“their safe-keeping, support, or re
moval,” and he is authorized to appoint
an officer on the coast of Africa to re
teive them,
*
Cotton Supply.
The west coast of Africa seems to be
legarden in England as more hopefull of
cotton production than India. In a late
debate in Parliament, Lord Palmerston
said: “We shall find on the African
coast a most valuable source of supply
for the article of cotton, which is essen
tial to our manufactures. It is consid
erably nearer to us than India; its cot
ton districts are more extensive ; access
to them is more easy. I will undertake
to assert that our commerce with that
toast for this all important article, will,
in a few years, prove far more valuable
than .that with any portion of the
world—the North American States ex
cepted.” On the same occasion, Sir
John Pakingtonheld this language;—
“ The fact is, that we are looking for a
supply of cotton from Africa, where
alone we can expect to obtain what is so
indispensable to the industry and com
merce of this country, this end we can
achieve only by crushing the slave trade
and protecting’regular industry by our
fleet.”
Hancock Annual Fair.
The Planters of Hancock county, will
hold their annual fair on the 27th, 28th,
26th and 30th October, at Sparta. We
have received a copy of the Premium
List and regulations. The list of premi
ums is a liberal one, and well distribu
ted.
Tom Corwin, or Ohio.—This gentle
man has been nominated by the Black
Republican party of the 17th Congres
sional District of Ohio, as a candidate
to represent that district in the next
Congress of the United States.
Th* Cutting off ol the Cotton Crop.
The Montgomery (Ala.) Mail of the
19 th inst says : It has been apparent to
every man at all observant, that the
last two or three weeks have most ma
terially changed the prospects of the
cotton planter ; and that now in all the
heavy producing portions of the South
there is the bare possibility of an aver
age crop. And yet, there are newspa
pers in the East which steadily insist on
the certainty of a very heavy crop.—
There will be no such crop this year. We
every day see planters from different
parts of our own cotton section, and we
have overwhelming evidence that re
cent disasters beyond all doubt cut short
the crop. The following from the Ma
rion Commonwealth is just what is con
stantly reported to us :
ft “Moth and Rest.”— “We have re
cently held a conversation with one of
our most extensive and successful far
mers in regard to the crops. This gen- j
tlemen has, a few days ago, paid a visit;
to his farm which lies 60uth-west of Ma-j
rion in the most fertile portion of our j
canebrake lands, and there made a care- j
ful examination of his own crops ami
those of his neighbors, so his opinion is j
entitled to all credit.
He informs us that beyond all ques
tion, the red rust is more extensive and
destructive than he ever saw it, and
that worms are or will be more ruinous
than they were ever known to be be
fore. He mentioned an instance of one
of bis neighbors, one of whose fields,
the most fertile and best land on hie
plantation, well situated and contain
ing a hundred acres, was totally destroy
ed by the red rust. And for myself,
says he, where two weeks ago I had
the most certain prospect I ever had for
three hundred hales of cotton, now
since I have seen the worm at work on
it, I shall be satisfied to gather one hun
dred aDd fifty. He says further, that:
he has seen trees five feet in circumfer
ence so badly injured by rust that every
leaf on them was withered.”
“ This is a sad and ‘over true tale |
and the unusually largo crop which a
few weeks ago we so confidently fore
told, will terminate in a moderate crop 1
of corn and utter failure of cotton.—
Who shall say that “hard times” have
left us yet ?' ’
i W r e append the following from the
Selma Sentinel of the 18th, and ask our
big crop cotemporaries to look at it:
Rot in Cotton.—“ Charles Lewis, Esq ,
sent to our office, yesterday, a bundle
of cotton stalks loaded with bolls
which were literally rotten. These
stalks were from the plantion of Noah
Williams, E6q., near this city. Os some
twenty or thirty bolls there was not a
single one but was more or less rotten.
We hear a very general complaint all
over the country of the rot in cotton
and we tear, as it has commenced so
soon in the season, that the crop will
be seriously injured, and in some places
\ ruined entirely.”
[Correspondence of the Dispatch.]
Concord, N. H. Aug. 17, 1858.
As I sit down to write, the booming
cannon breaks upon the stillness of one
of the most beautiful nights I have ov
er witnessed. From several directions
I hear the report of powder, which is
being burned on the occasion of the
opening of the Atlantic Telegraph,
which has been anxiously looked for,
for several days. So general and spon
taneous an exhibition of rejoicing has
seldom been witnessed. With one ac
cord almost,the people seem disposed to
throw up their hats and hurrah for the
successful completion of the most aston
ishing feat, this or any other age has
ever witnessed. Talk of any or all of
the Herculean labors of old, which have
been looked upon as wonders—and with
reason—but what are they, when com
pared with the successful completion of
three thousand miles of continuous tele
graph, laid on the bed of the Atlantic
Ocean, over which individuals and na
tions may hold sure and easy conversa
tion ? Strong arms may build up huge
piles of stone as monuments to the fame
of some stupid despot, or to prevent the
march of hoards of soldiers, but when
the mind of man, in its infancy—for 'tie
but a few years since the power of this 1
human engine was discovered—projects ’
and completes the means of bringing t
the world into almost instant communi !
cation, it is a fitting time to celebrate;
it is an occasion which may well be
sealed with firing of cannon and the j
ringing of bells. Here is a power—a j
machine, before which the pyramids *
of Egypt are but vapor, and the walls }
of China but as a web of sand. This is c
the power before which the world must
r t
bow—at sight of which despots tremble
and armies vanish—a power that bridges c
the Oceans, and chains the fires of Hea- t
ven to chariots that are drawn by a sin- J
gle finger of man, to the extremities of ,
the earth in a moment. c
When I last wrote you, the haying j
season had just commenced—the crop t
has been bountiful, though the weather f
has been such that it has been dam 1
aged, and much of its value destroyed. ,
For nearly six weeks the wind has blown ■
from the east, and consequently there !
has been scarcely a good “hay day.” It ,
has rained more than twenty out of thir- |
tv davs, and still the quantity of water 1
which has fallen, has not been large.— (
The weather has been cool—but few days i
have we had since July come in, on j
which fire was not comfortable. But (
with all the wet and cold, except the
damage to hay, the crops are unusually •
promising. Coru is heavier than has
been known for many years, and the
prospect for Irish Potatoes is like it used
to be in olden times when they could
be purchased for ten cents a bushel.—
But it is not yet too late for the rot to
destroy the crop, and nftny predict it.
The season is somewhat late—corn is
just “fit to roast.” Fruit is scarce in
this latitude.
Business is said to be reviving, but a
telescope is almost necessary to detect
! its welcome visage in this locality. In
; chronic diseases the patient may think
he is really better, when, in fact, he is
worse—so with business matters. We
, are getting used to hard times. When
i the last five dollar hill is spent, we feel
1 poor, hut, in a short time, a three dol
lar note looks fully as large, and so
down till a dime is magnified into a half
dollar. Well, that will soon bo gone,
and we may then lay away our empty
purses till the advent of the next Presi
dent, who is to make business flourish
and money plenty. It 13 very fortu
nate that we are blessed with a Presi
dential election once in four.years ; we
are thereby prevented from all becom
ing millionaires, or all becoming in
mates of the poor house. What a re
sponsibility our Chief Magistrate has to
bear. Old Buck has evidently not done
his duty. He should have devoted more
of his time to financial matters, and less
to Kansas affairs—let the barbarians of 1
that God-forsaken Territory hunt for
themselves, we Christians here, in New
England and in other States, deserve
better treatment. We want our facto
ries to be set in motion, our mechanic
shops to resound with the blows of the
mallet and chisel—our purses need re- i
plenishing—our halls of learning are
not able to support fanatical lectures, !
our freedom shriekers can’t get a crowd
to listen to their wild harrangues—our
stump speakers are boiliug over with
unspoken philanthropy, and the dear
people are fast reverting to ignorance '
and ungodliness for want of teachers.
The dearth of political excitement is
getting to be really alarming, and un
less our rulers take our case in hand,
and relieve our necessities, a crisis may
be expected. A low distant rumbling,
along the shores of ennui, is already
heard, and dissatisfaction, at such gross
neglect, will find means of leasing the
White House to more attentive occu
pants, unless its present occupant sets
about a reform. Kansas matters gener
, ally are hushed up—negroes have sud
denly fallen a good many points in re
spectability—Douglas and his opponents
are each having things pretty much in
in their own way in the West, and the
world generally is quiet—and to relieve
such distressing state of things, I know
of no more popular measure than to in
troduce some plan or scheme by which
empty purses may be filled. Letters
patent, will be issued to the origina
tor of any plan by which so desirable,
an object can be realised. And now,
since Lecompton and Topeka has failed,
and Cuba is not annexed, and England
will not fight for the right of search, I
think the President can only save his
laurels by putting a stop to hard times.
N.
Tiie Weather—Crops—Trade, &c. —
The weather in this vicinity has been a
little fall-like during the last few days.
The nights and mornings are cool and
pleasant. It is, however, temporary,
and we fear we are not yet through with
the heat and dust of the city.
The crops in and around Columbuß
are not so favorable as heretofore. The
corn crop is plentiful and remarkably
fine, but the cotton is full of boll
worms and rust. Some of the farmers
will not make the third of a cotton
crop.
Potatoes, beans, peas, etc., are doing
well. Upon the whole, the farmer has (
no right to complain. —Columbus Times,
27th inst.
Weather—Health —-Crops. --The
weather, for the past few days, has been
unusually cool for the season. Our
thermometer ranges from 70 to 80 de
grees, extremes. Crops as usual, look
favorable, and the health of the coun- ;
try generally good. We can learn of
very little sickness throughout this sec
tion, and the prevalent opinion that :
this isau unhealthy country, is toacer- ;
tain extent entirely erroneous. Ourcli- ■
mate has been mild the present sum
mer, and our population look as heal
thy as mountaineers. —Albany Patriot,

Crops In South-YVestern tieorgln.
Milford, Ga., Aug. 24th, 1858. 1
Editor Savannah Republican :—lnclosed j|
I send you two dollars, for which I wish | (
you to send me the Republican weekly to j
the office above. I was a subscriber,and ! 1
presume my money has run out. I con- 1
tinue it, if for nothing else, for your
cash principle. <
You ask information in reference to 1
the crops through this section. As far I
as I can learn and see, we have good I
com crops, and the prospect, at one j
time, for cotton, was fine ; but like all )
sublunary things, it has changed, and | j
for the worse. I have seen much for "
myself and heard many of the opinions I •
of good practical planters, and they it
universally say that they will have a j
short crop,owing toafew weeks’ drougth j
and the rust. I have not heard of al l
farm in south-western Georgia that is i ]
free from this, the terror to planters. It is i,
very doubtful about our crops reaching i
even last year. The plantation from)'
which such fine specimens of weed were ]
sent you last spring are now literally |,
destroyed by rust. We have some'
worm, and no bolls now smaller than a j
patridge egg—which shows conclusive- j!
ly that the cotton has done nothing for ]
several weeks back. Those correspond-;
ents, who name certain individual crops j'
as being so extra fine, I will warrant, i 1
are nearly dead to sell out, and think j
by that means to direct public attention
to their places. Yours,
Omicbon.

gfTCure of Diseased Liver.
—Ho.vesdaie Co.. Penn., JaD. 10, 1850—Mr. i
Seth W. Fowle—Sir : You arc* at liberty to use- \
the following statement for the benefit ol the as- <
llicted: . I
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink of I
the grave. During my sickness I was attended
by three physicians in our place, but received j
no help. I also tried the various remedies re- '
commended for such complaints, hut they as- j
forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try 1 Vidar's Balsam. of Wild
Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored j
to better health than I have enjoyed before for [
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
as strictly true. Perrin.
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, of Honesdalc, who is well'
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner. ;

If T lie Great Pr o bicm
Solved !—DR. MORSE'S INVIGORATING COR
jDIAL. —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
j nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
,'tbe sufferer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created iD the system, the
1 basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doioreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
• ten iblc lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
, nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
■ or disability arisingfrom the unnaturalcondition
of the wonderful machinery which conpects cv
-1 cry member with the source of sensation, mo
, tion ami thought—derives immediate benefit
from the use of Ibis Cordial, which at once cairns,
1 invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
i organization.
, Females who have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the ha- ds oi
. 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 materia’
which is to be subjected to their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
Iflong life and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment are desirable, this medicine i.-.? indeed ol
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 getieral de
■ bility or from the weakness of a single orgaD
, will all find immcdiatcand permanent relh f from
the use of this incomparable renova.or. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing 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. I.et 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

gSPCisre the Liver.—There is
: an article selling throughout the country that
■ has attained th*» widest celebrity ever known as
a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
ence to DR. SANFORD’S IN VIGOR ATOR, OR
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al
i most too great to believe, were it not for the un
doubted evidence that accompany the testimo
nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
■ for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility
. that so often baffles the skill of our most eminent
physicians.
I j 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
j let the world have the benefit of his discovery.
; If those who arc troubled with debility, head
'l ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, will try
i a bottle, wc think they might save physicians’
j bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—

ftsT' Quack Nostrums.--The
; majority of hair washes, hair dyes, hair tonics,
hair oils, and the numberless preparations which
are now before the public under such extrava
gant. hyperbolical and fantastic titles as we see
I paraded in show-window cards, and newspaper
I headings, as hair preparations, are all humbugs
of the first water ; their real meiit, when they
possess any, is, that they do no harm. Hog’s
lard, whale oil, lard oil, sweet oil, scented and
| colored, make up, when iu beautiful wrappers,
; and while flint glass bottles, the costliest charac
! ter of touics, and when thus costly, are baptised
with some tri-syllable term, and caught at by
j verdant young and old of both sexes. Such is
not the character of PROFESSOR WOOD’S HAIR
RESTORATIVE. This gentleman comes before
i the world wit' out any “high falutin” Xilophlo
| forium, or any other astounding and startling
; catch penny term ; he shnply advertises a Hair
: Restorative —what it expresses, precisely—an t
jas 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. aulß 2w
