Friday Evening, Sept. 10,1558. .
EDITORIAL CiOSSIPPINO.
Cleveland, Tenn., Sept. 7, 1858.
This is a very handsome and pleasant j
town, containing about 1,500 inhabi
tants. It has about 20 stores, located
irounS the Court House Square, which
,-t enclosed and beautifully shaded. The
i jsiness of the place wears a more
■ hrifty aspect than any of the towns I
iave visited. This is the outlet of the
)ucktown Mines to the railroad, and ,
heavy trade is derived from that re- j
don, while the country around is well
ettled by substantial farmers. There j
is a Masonic Female Institute, and other
mple educational facilities. There is
, good iron foundry in operation by
homas & Co., and a number of mechan
ical enterprises of less note in various
narts of the county. (And speaking of
this, reminds me that yon mis-printed
ihe name of the owners of the machine
works in Chattanooga—-it is Webster &
'lAMK.aodl correct it, as it might cause
1 hem some loss from misdirection.)—
she “Cleveland Flour Mills” turn out
100 barrels of flour per day, of excellent
quality, which, with other mills of less
..Ize, affords a considerable market for
ihe wheat of the county. Large ship
ments are also made to the markets be
low, and I am pleased to observe that
our Augusta buyers have agents here. —
There is a disposition to send the trade
and produce of this section to the old
markets, notwithstanding the appre
hension that it would be turned to Bal
timore. I respectfully submit that our
merchants should advertise in the pa
pers of East Tennessee and Upper Geor
gia, and use every effort to retain the
trade so vigorously sought after by com
. , e ting markets. And on this point it is
proper to say that the Daily Dispatch
as a larger circulation between here
Ulanta than all the dailies of the Slate com
i,ned. So much for perseverance and
four dollars a year.
I promised to tell you about the open
ing hall at the “Ocoee House.” It was
really a brilliant affair. The attendance
•vas large, and the ladies comprised j
;ome of the most elegant belles of East
Tennessee. Among the notables of the
•other sex were Sam. Smith, member of
. 'ongress from this district, Sam. Ivins,
if the Athens Post, and McNellt, of the
> Ueveland Banner.
The music was furnished by Wie
gand’s band, of Savannah, formerly of
Augusta. I was too ill to more than look
in for a moment, but it was a most
agreeable soiree. The supper was serv
ed up in elegant style, and everything
reflected the highest credit on the taste
of our landlord as a caterer for the
amusement as well as appetites of his
guests. The Hotel was brilliantly illu
minated, and fronting as it does 100 feet
on South and 100 on/Jcoee street,it pre
sented a novel and beautifull spectacle.
Such a hotel is an honor to any town.
The Circuit Court continues in session
and on yesterday sent one victim to the
Penitentiary for negro stealing. His
name was Roan. He was convicted at
the last term and sentenced for three
years, but got a new trial, and was sent
for six ! To-day a man named Farmer
is on trial for cutting Mills. Several
other criminal cases are on the docket.
Yesterday the weather was very hot,
and to-day it is raining a little.
You will hear from me next from
Charleston, 12 miles above here.
Yours, A.

A correspondent of the Picayune , wri
ting from Yazoo county, Miss, says
that the most sanguine do not now
count upon more than two-thirds of a
crop in the hills. The crop in the bot
tom he estimates at an average one, de
ducting the loss from overflow, which
for that county he estimates at 7,000 to
10,000 bales. The hill crop has suffer
ed from boll worms and drought, the
bottom crop from worms and rust.
UT“ The controversy between Parsons
Brownlow and Pyne on the Slavery
Question, was commenced at Philadel
phia on Tuesday last. The former was
laboring under such a severe attack of
bronchitis, that it was supposed some
one would have to read his lectures for
bim.
Salk or Negroes.— On Tuesday last,
twelve negroes, belonging to the estate
of George Crawford, deceased, were
sold in Griffin for the aggregate sum of
$8,977, making an average price for
each of $784. Their ageß range from
2 years up to 50. They were sold on a 1
credit till Chiistmas. which was nearly
equivalent to a cash sale. This looks
like pretty strong confidence in the sta
bility and security of the “peculiar in
stitution ” — Atlanta Intelligencer, 10(5.
Unique Musical Entertainment. —The
London papers report that Giulia Grisi
is advertised to sing at Neuilly, France,
on the river Seine. Two hundred wher
ries are to float around her, and the
z summer evening is to close on a musi
cal festival unique in its arrangements ;
the instrumental orchestra is to glide
along the stream, the oars arc to keen
time.
Well Solia —A negro man, about 50
years old, was sold by Sheriff Brooks, on
Tuesday last, for S7OO cash. It was a
good price, we think, when taken into
consideration, that he was sold out of
Jail; and part of the money was to de
fray jail fees.— Columbus Enquirer, Qthiiut.

[communicated.]
popular 'oratory.
i Very many of our popular orators, j
both iu the pulpit and the forum, are [
losing all their desired effect, by their c
pompous maimerisms. We have no an- *
tbority either from the Bible or the an- |
cient or modem dramatists for such an- 1 <
Tics as we now constantly witness in j*
| the declamations, we are often compell- 1 ]
| e l to listen to.
i The English language, in its strong
I Saxon, and its abundance of fine simple
monosylahles, furnishes ample means to
impress an audience with a clear light,
in explaining either science, art, poli
tics or religion, without using high
| sounding bombast, or the artistic antics
and genuflexions so much resorted to by
; many of our public speakers.
. j A little boy (who became a distin
,! guished lawyer—he died in LaGrange,
Ga., last spring) at the Academy in
! Madison, about thirty years since, was
s ] making his first effort on the rostrum,
j. jHe had committed to memory, from
; the spelling book, the fable of the old
; I man and the boy in the apple tree. He
. | was cautioned by a fond mother to be
; sure to make fine gestures, when he
made his speech, particularly in waving
j his hands and bowing gracefully. He
commenced: “An old man found a
rude boy upon one of his apple trees
stealing apples, and desired him to
come down,” (here he raised both
hands and swept them gracefully, with
] a low bow to his right side, and made
ajlong pause) “but che young sauce
box told him plainly he would not,”
j (here was another sweep to the left
side, and another low bow and long
pause.) “Won t you?” said the old
man, “then I will fetch you down,”
(here he made a squat, and in doing so,
fell over, and bis speech was closed.)
, It is so with many of our orators—they
sweep away, by gestures, all the effort
which their words might effect.
When a nail is well driven, it is not
always necessary to clinch it. The fine
sublime sentences found in the Bible,
need not the grins and sweeping gestures
of many of our clergymen to give them!
| proper effect. The poetry of Shaks-1 j
peare, Milton or Byron, does not re
quire the mawkish, puny and sickening ,
| sentimental tones, often given in its I
recital. A plain, clear, graceful de- I
livery, with a very moderate portion of;
■ gesture, is all that is necessary, then 1
, the beauty of the subject is not lo6t in
> the pomposity of its delivery.

Rain.
We had another fine rain yesterday,
which, though not particularly needed
• in this locality, was nevertheless very
j acceptable. Turnips, potatoes, and peas
are looking remarkably well, and these
" seasonable rains will greatly benefit
B them. —Columbus Sun, Dth imt.

Shameful EvMbllloii. I
On Friday week Urst, the steam fire! .
engine, belonging In Philadelphia, on 1
its return from the trial in Boston, stop- i
ped in New York, and the firemen in!
charge proceeded, on invitation, to;
give the New Yorkers a touch of its',
quality. After much difficulty in ob
taining water, through the discourtesy: 1
of the New York firemen, the trial 1 ;
commenced. The Herald says:
They first played through a single
hose, uEd although seventy feet from
the biasring building, they succeeded in
throwing a stream quite as strong as
the heavy old hand engines which
stood immediately opposite the fire.—
The force of the water, however, burst
the hose they were using, and the Phil
adelphians were compelled to stop.—
Disaster, strange to say, instead of ex
citing the sympathy, provoked the de
rision of some of the New York fire
men, who hurrahed and cheered, and
acted generally as though they were re
joiced at the bad luck of their Philadel
phia visitors. The latter, nothing
daunted by their mishap, next proceed
ed to play two streams, with new hose.
These two streams were thrown to a
height nearly equal to the one thrown
by Adriatic Engine Company No. 31,
one of tbe “crack” hand engines of
this city. The success of the steam en
gine seemed to enrage the New York
ers, and the pipe from Engine No. 31
turned the stream ot water full upon
the Philadelphians. This magnani
mous feast was cheered by the firemen,
while the citizens on the walk cried
“shame!” “shame!” At this junc
ture it seemed as though a general at
tack was about to be made upon the
visitors, but through the efforts of As
sistant Engineer Baulch and the police,
the stranger firemen were protected
from personal violence.
The St. Paul (Min) Times says, a

taken from the Fraser river mines, sin
gle-handed, $50,000, and writes, that
when the water falls, he can make SIOO

Solved :~riß. 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 j
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solventpower, and
nutriment, 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 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 dowu and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack ol ,
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from the u nnatural condition [
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 at once calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
Females who have tried it are unanimous iu
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hards oi
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, irn
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite
Whilo 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 Pliarmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed ol
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ading
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
i sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
will all find immediateand permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable renovaior. 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. Let not even those despair. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

fsF’The New and Startling
Poem of the Dress for the Hair :
CANTO I.
Miss Flora McFlimsey of Madison Square,
A lady of fashion, of wealth and of beauty,
Spent money like water for stuff for the hair,
And did it because she thought it a duty
To paint the fine lily—to perfume the rose—
To gild refined gold—though few would suppose
Miss Flora McFlimsey, with beauty so rare,
Required aught to make her more charmingly
canto n. [fair.
Miss Flora had heard of a noted Professor,
j Who dressed his own hair, tho’ not a Hairdresser,
. With a magical, wonderful, great preparation,

Seth W. Fowl*—Sir : You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the benefit ol the af
flicted : *
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink ol (
the grave. During my sickness 1 was attended t
by three physicians in our place, but received s
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 I Vistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored
to better bealtb than I have enjoyed before for 1
ten years. This statement may be relied upon i
as strictly true. Betsey Perrin .
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, of Honesdale. who is well i
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner.

{IT Cure the Giver. —There is I
an article selling throughout tho country that
has attained the widest celebrity ever known as
a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
once to DR. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, OR
“ LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures a
most too great to believe, wt-ie it not lor the u
doubted evidence that accompany tbe testimo
nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
ot Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debiliV
that so often baffles the 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 Suid,
most of his cases were treated with the luvigo
rator with such invariable success that he has
been induced to offer it aa 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 fiver, wi'l try
a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
bi:ls, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—
