editorial gossip.
Cotoosa Springs, August 27.—1 t isj
always a matter of solicitude among
travelers, to get the shady-side of a
rail car. Stepping aboard on yesterday,
at one of the stations on the State
Boad, there was the usual inquiry among
aur group as to which the shady side
would be. A waggish passenger, who
had taken the train at Atlanta, ob-j
aerved that it would make no difference j
which side was taken, for the road was
,0 crooked that by the time a streak of]
•nnshine got fairly in on one side, a]
crook in the road would besureto bring ]
it into the window opposite. A general,
langb followed, as a more perversely j
serpentine course can hardly he imag
ined, than that described by the track
of the Western and Atlantic Kailroad.
A dusty institution, too, is this tortuous
piece of public property just at this
time—and one is forcibly reminded of
the scriptural edict abont our dußty or
igin and dusty destination, as wc pass
.along its circuitous pathway, enveloped
in a cloudy compound of limestone
dust, lightwood smoke and cinders;
and so completely do we become en
trusted in the sooty clement, that all
we Bee, or taste, or smell, is dust, dust,
dust. Among all the reforms which
the croakers suggest in the manage
ment of thiß institution, there is none
that will be hailed with more satisfac
tion than any innovation that shall
•'down with the dust." And appropos, of
this, I learn that Dr. Lswis will have
his usual monthly installment ready to
pay into the public treasury, by the Ist
prox
Cotoosa presents an nnusaal array of
attractions to the Bummer tourists this
aeason. The shade-trees are grown
more dense, making the avenues mon
cool and refreshing—the grounds and
rooms arc in excellent order, the bane
of music is a great improvement on
gome of its predecessors, and the larder
has never been better supplied. But
♦he chief security to the comfort of the
place is its freedom from the dense
♦hrongs that have usually collected
here. The number this season has rare
ly exceeded 150 to 200, and, therefore,
none have wanted comfortable quarter;
and attention from the servants, which
are as numerous as ever. Kecent depar
tures for the Fancy Ball at Montvale.
which came off last night, has consider
ably reduced the average of the month,
hut the numbers are ample yet for all
the amusements of the season, and
time passes on "a merry wing." Among
those who still adorn the pastimes ol
the place, are graceful belles, elegant
matrons and gallant chevaliers from
Charleston, Savannah, Macon, Mont
gomery, Memphis and Louisiana
There has been a singular paucity of
guests from Augusta, during the entire
season ; and this seems a little singu
lar, when it is remembered that the
enterprise originated, and is still con
trolled by the capital of that city, and
from it has obtained a large share of
its servants and supplies every year
But the novelties of Western Virginia
geemed to have attracted a large portion
of tiie pleasure seekers this year, and
our home watering places must abide
their time. I cannot forbear, however,
to advise those who wish to see Cotoosa
in its most cool and agreeable aspect, to
luxuriate in its delightful shades, or
test the virtues of its medicinal waters
to come at an early period.
Yester Jay was a cool, cloudy day, and
two or three parties went on fishing ex j
gursions. One of the party containing j
gome of the belles of the place, return
ed at un early hour, bringing no evi
dence of piscatory skill ; but it is slyly
guspicioned that one or more hearts
were entangled by the barbed arrows of
Cupid, and that the silken cord alone,
will suffice to relieve the victim from
♦he meshes that ensnare him. Others,
more staid and practical, brought home
fine strings of trout, which abound in j
the streams in the immediate vicinity !
The woods are full of game, also, aDd
offer abundant pastime for the sports
man. In short, Cotoosa teems with at
-tractions, adapted to the tastes and ages
of all, arid art and nature seem to have
conspired to lavish upon it all that is
needed to make it a favorite resort for j
the votaries of fashion or for the inva |
lid who would seek, among its varied j
waters, the fountain of health.
Lookout Mountain, Aug. 28, 1858. j
I have only time before the departure
es the mail, to inform those of our rea
ders who may be solicitous for the con
tinued safety of your wandering editor,
that I have just arrived at the most]
charming spot on this end o f the con
tinent, and ain patiently waiting for'
quarters at the "Lookout House." It
is now thronged with visitors from nil
parts of the low country, and makes a
favorable impression, from its location ]
near the brow of the mountain, over j
looking the Tennessee valley, and the!
vast range of mountain Rcenery beyond.
There are several h und red visitors on the!
taountain, and as soon as I get my face I
washed, and have renewed my acquain
tance with the notable localities of the
region —formed years ago, (the acquain
| tance, as well as the notabilities,) be
j fore the rush of summer travel had
made hotels a necessity, I will tell oui
; readersmorc about the mountain, which
teems with picturesque beauty, which
cannot fail to captivate every eye, aud.
I which is said to rival the most charm
ing Alpine scenery.
I cannot forbear to note the excellent
facilities afforded by Mr. AuoustusCook,
! of Chattanooga, for taking passengers
to the Mountain. His carriages are
. 1 strong and comfortable—none of the
’ | hacks that arc sometimes found on
I I what are called “stage lines” —his
■ horses arc the best imported stock, and
| with careful drivers, render the ride to
; the mountain—a distance of about four
j miles—a safe and agreeable trip. It is
j proper to add, that the writer did not
: enjoy a fret rule, as editors who write
i puffs are supposed to do. There was a
fine rain last night at Chattanooga, the
! first that has fallen in the vicinity for
several weeks The current of events
in the up-country is stagnant, and
. I cannot, therefore, offer any notable
, incidents to relieve the dull monotony
.1 of the dog-days, or to afford "topics”
j for the can’t-get-away club. I will
merely offer my warmest regards to that
worthy association, together with a
hearty wish that they were all here,
“right now,” to take just one view of
the blue ethereal surroundings of Look
out, and catch a few inspirations of its
fresh bracing atmosphere. A.
The Atlantic Telegraph.
It is stated in the papers (says the
Charleston News,) that the French
Island of Miguelon, a little to the south
of Newfoundland, has been ceded to
the British government for a considera
tion, and that this affords proof to de
monstration of the English monopoly
of the Atlantic telegraph. Now if the
Island above mentioned affords a point
where another ocean Telegraph can be
carried, how does this strengthen the
monopoly that tho two nearest geo
graphical points on the opposite shores
of the Atlantic ocean has already es"
tablished ? While both the most Wes
tern coast of Ireland and the most Eas
tern coast of British America arc with
in the limits of British jurisdiction,
whether there are one or one dozen
points of possible communication with
the coast of the United States in the
Atlantic ocean, the fact that one end of
the line is still on British territory ren
ders the monopoly as complete as could
be desired. The only remedy is the
construction of new line 6 between Con
tinental Europe and the new world.—
Monopoly is impossible in our period of
universal competition.

African CorroN.—The supply of cot

;as is the demand for manufactures of
cotton, and the English manufacturers
j have turned their attention to that
i quarter. Mr. Clegg, of Manchester, has

whom he has received consignments,
and with whom he bag large transac

Madison strain Mills.
There is no place in Georgia more fa
vorably situated for a successful opera
tion in manufacturing cotton, wool,
grinding wheat and corn, than at Madi
son, Morgan county, Ga. A most supe
rior building of ample size—with a fine
engine—cotton and wool machinery,
with two superior mills for grinding
corn, and a fine location, immediately
on the line of the Bailroad—with twen
ty acres of land, and suitable out build
ings. We have a market with regular
and constant supplies of raw material
of every kind wanted. Fuel is abuu
dant around the town—a population of
2,500 in the place—a vast, and constant
demand for cotton ami woolen goods.—
The mills have been sold and have been
bought in by a part of the stock holders,
who are having daily offers forthe ma-1
chinery. Thewriterofthiswasoneof the j
principal beginners of the enterprise
which,underaßeriesof had management,
did not sneced as a profitable concern, the
boilers not arranged right consuming
more wood than was necessary to run
the mills— these with other things stop
ped the concern.
Under the charge of experienced and
practical manufacturers—there is no!
place in the South where an operation
can be made moie successfully than at
Madison. I understand the whole con
cern can be bought for about $20,000 —
the cost was about SBO,OO0 —aud only
was run about four years. This is writ
ten by one who has no interest in the
concern and is only prompted by a de
sire to see the mill in operation, being
convinced that two great points will be
gained—one to the purchaser and a
greater one to the citizens of Morgan,
who need an institution of the kind for
their general and particular benefit. I
am informed by some of the present
company, that they will freely venture
an inventment in a new start, if compe
tent men can be found to own and
manage the concern. In Morgan coun
ty alone, we consume at least
100,000 vards of Cotton Osnaburgs.
150.000 " “7 8 Shirtings.
50,000 “ “ Kerseys,
with a large operation in carding- and ]
the sale of yarns for domestic wants.— ]
A mill can be kept constantly sup
plied with regular custom both in wheat
and corn. The great facilities by Rail
road, both East and West, avoid any ex
tra expense in wagons which is quite an
important saving. Other advantages
might be enumerated, which will be
easily perceived by the purchaser. The
citizens of Morgan county will rejoice
if the concern can be taken hold of by
good managers, who will be certain of
remuneration for the energy necessary
for a successful operation of the same,

Even in aristocratic England, (says
the Richmond Visjeitch,) there is ev
idence that this much misunder
stood and misapplied title will here-
I after have a more just and rational ap-1
j plicatjon than merely to men of acer- i
tain rank. In a late discussion in Par
liament of the principle and experience
of competitive examination for the pub
iie service, with reference to civil and
military appointments in India, Lord 1
Stanley proclaimed the superiority of 1
the competitive principle over patron
age and considerations of birth or con- j 1
nexions, and Sir James Graham gave in | 1
the following passage the true defini
tion of a gentleman :
“ In regard to the civil service the 1 g
principal of competition was adopted— ‘
the power of the Crown to make the ] (

ion that the successful competitors]
should be recommended to her Majesty ;

j from tho usenf this Cordial, which at once calms,
i invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous

, I Females who hare tried it are unanimous in
i declaring tho Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the ha ds ol
medical men.
Morse's Invigorating Elixir has a diroct, un
mediate and astonishing effect upon tho 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 on
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed oi
precious worth B w ...
‘ Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. Tho feeble girl, the ading
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
manor business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual sufiV-ring from general *le
bility or from the weakness of a single orgui
will all find immediateand permanent reP f fron
the use of this incomparable or. T(
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guart
against that terrible milady. There are nv«»\
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
lion that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without ref
erence to the causes, and will not only remove
the di order itself, bat rebuild the broken con

g*f (’in»‘ the LiTer.—There is
j an article selling throughout the country that
I has attained the widest celebrity ever known as
a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
ence to I)R. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, OR
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al
most too groat to believe, were it not for the un
doubted evidence that accompany the testimo
nials. It is. in truth, the greatest remedy known
! lor Ry.-pepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility
i - hat so often baffles the skill of our most eminent
physicians.
Dr. Sanford lias been for a longtime one of the
ininent physicians of New York, and it is s«*id,
most of Ins cases were treated with the Invigo
rator with such invariable success that hfe has
been induced to off* r 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 (« ve>\ wi'l try
a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—

irquack Nostrums.--The
majority of hair washes, hair dyes, hair tonics,
hair oils, and the numberless preparations which
.re now before the public under such extrava
gant, hyperbolical and fantastic titles as we see
paraded in show-window cards, and newspaper
headings, as hair preparations, are all humbugs
of tho first water ; their real merit, 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 m beautiful wrappers,
and white flint glass bottles, the costliest charac
cr of tonics, and when thus costly, are baptised
with some tri-syllable term, and caught at by
verdant young and old of both sexes. Such is
not the character ot PROFESSOR WOOD’S HAIR
RESTORATIVE. This gentleman come 3 before
the world wit out any ‘ * high falutin” Xiloplilo- ■

as a Restorative it acts. Buy l’rof. Wood s Hair
Restorative, and as you value your scalp, aye,
