fbrnng 1 AUGU STA.GA: 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. Colton In I lie Yu/.|><| Valley. 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. The trips of the steam packets fun ning between New York and Havana have been suspended for the presen t. [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. Bentuam. \V entlier—l lea It h—Crops. During the past week we have enjoy ‘ ed pleasant weather, with occasional i showers and a constant breeze. Ther t mometer ranging from 80 to 86 de grees, extremes. The corn, cane, and potatoe crops were never more abund -5 ant. The cotton crop will fall short ~ about one third of former anticipations. The health of this county continues ~ good, and from enquiries made, we can 6 hear of no sickness, although there . may be some slight cases not worth I reporting. —Albany Patriot, 9(A insl. 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. , -•••- Tony Burns. —Anthony Burns, of ; famous memory, is now living in Maine, t It was reported in some of the papers that he had been arrested for some r crime; it turns out that a white man, l by the same name, had been committed to prison charged with robbery. Maine must be a cold climate for Tony. Six persons arc to be tried for their lives at the next term of the court in 1 1 Albany county, N. Y. The youngest is 12 years old, and the oldest 58. Three splendid Morgan horses, pur chased by Louis Napoleon, have been . shipped from Boston to Paris. ; On Friday last forty-eight slaves of r the late Mrs. Blanchard, of Kentucky, were set free in Cincinnatti. I An anti-Mormon paper is about to be ■ established in Great Salt Lake City.— : This is “bearding the lion in his den.” i Hon. E.

Mr. Dallas, flic American Minister, had an interview with the Earl of Derby 5 on the 19th of August. , The “Little Corporal.”— The Impe rial infant of France has been named corporal in the regiment of the Guards, s to which hebelongs, andin which he was f lately fusileer. The promotion was| made by the colonel, and took place on : the day lie was two years and a half old, j The “little corporal” marched around the palace of St. Cloud on that day in his new uniform. A Request.— lt is stated that by the ! recent death of Mrs. Mary Coggswell : Jarvis, widow of the late Leonard Jar - vis, of Baltimore, a legacy amounting i to about $20,000 becomes available to I I Harvard University, according to the j will of her husband. s ! .The wife of Joseph Baxter, of Hyatt -1 nis, Mass., after having received from -; her too confiding husband a liberal sum jof money, last week left his bed and e I board, stating that she should “never . | return. The husband, it is said, in ! j clines to the opinion that she is not ” I worth the trouble of “looking up." e j Mr. Murdoch, of Meriden, Connecti . cut, not many nights since, thinking he .[heard burglars about, stepped out of 1 3 1 doors and fired a gun at a dark-looking ' , object before him. He found that he j | had killed one of his neighbor’s cows worth $100: I A piece of black web silk, nearly aj 1 1 yard long, in a perfect state of preserva- j I tion, was recently discovered in North j ’ Troy, imbedded in a solid pine log.— ! Ibe wood had apparently grown over! the silk, as there is no crack where it • could have been thrust in. ■ The anniversary of the American I I I of Commissioners for Foreign j j Missions has commenced at Detroit. i 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 brother of a gentleman of that city has taken from the Fraser river mines, sin gle-handed, $50,000, and writes, that when the water falls, he can make SIOO per day, digging. A severe hurricane passed over a por tion of Floyd county, lowa, on the 10th ult., doing great damage; and one farmer, who had seven acres of oats in shocks has not been able to find any of itsince the hurricane passed. Application will be made to the Leg islature of New Jersey, for authority to construct a canal or siackwater naviga tion from the head of the navigable! feeder of the Delaware and Raritan Ca- j nal to l’hillipsbuig. A prize fight, lasting an hour and a; half, came off in Chicago, on Sunday last, within two blocks of the Mayor's j house. The parties were not interrup ted. A mechanic at Newtown, Pa., has in-' vented a machine which he claims will! be useful in clearing the country of the grasshopper pest. The boiler of the steam mill at Cam bridge Maryland, exploded on Thursday; morning last, entirely destroyipg the! building, but no lives were lost. Charles Mayer has been arrested in | Milwaukie, on the charge of having j embezzled some $20,000 while cm-, ployed as confidential clerk of a firm in Paris. The city of Cincinnati has been sued for damages sustained by a property holder, in altering the grade of a street. The party injured claims the snug sum of $20,000 An alum well has lately been discov ered on the lot of Mr. Englehardt, at Montgomery, Ala. It is said to be quite as strongly impregnated with alum as the celebrated Alum Springs of Virginia. At gentleman of Norristown, Pa., has the venerable China plate from which Burgoyne ate his meals while marching his invading army from Cana da to Saratoga. A correspondence of the Providence Journal says, that in ninety-nine cases out of every hundred, cranberries, ap plied as a poultice, will effectually cure the erysipelas. A cake sent to Eldridge, the St. Law rence county school teacher, who cruel ly murdered his betrothed, was opened by the jailor and found to contain a nice new razor. One of the Rareys—William—will be at the Springfield Horse Show, and test his powers on vicious horses, If any such are offered for his manipulations. The New Haven Register, speaking of the regatta at Springfield, advises the people of that enterprising city to give up all pretensions to being even a se cond rate “maritime power." A gentleman of Oswego, N. Y., of fers to make a bet of SIO,OOO, that Horatio Seymour, if he lives, will be the next Democratic Governor of the State of New York. The balance wheel of John Fitch’s Model Engine, for the first Philadelphia! steamboat in 1786, 21 years before Ful ton’s New York boat, in 1807, is on ex hibition in Philadelphia.

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 LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush ! of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil j ity. hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de i B'ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys , pepsia, general prostration, irritability, ner\ous | ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe ; males, decay of the propagating functions, hys ! teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, impotenev, constipation, etc., from whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli ance to bo placed on human testimony, absolute ! ly infallible. * CAUTION.—Dr. Morse’s Invigorating Cordial i has been counterfeited by some unprincipled i persons.

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.

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.— (IT Wanted, a Cook, Wash- ERandIRoNEK.
