<£bmitt£ jElispatcj}. Aid GUSTA. GA: 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, 26 th inst. - -•••- ) 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.

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 LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the beau, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofself-de s’ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys i pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous ! ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria. monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of | the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from j whatever cau.- c arising, it is, if there is any reli | ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly infallible.

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.— j Ohio Statesman. aul3- m 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 ffsT" The Great E nslisli Remedy.—Sir James Clarke’s CELEBRATED FEMALE BILLS. Prepared from a prescription of Sir J.
