AUGUSTA. GA:
Sat«>V:ay Evening, Sepl. U, ISSM.
EBITORIAI, UOSSIPPINU.
Loudon, Tens., Sept. 7.
Taking a freight train at Cleveland
for Charleston, I arrived at that quiet
old town about dark. After hunting
'round some time, I found the hotel,
where I partook of a good supper, and
started out to see the business men of
the place before the arrival of the pas
senger train. I found four stores, and
learned that each of them do a large
business. Charleston and its nighbor,
Calhoun, immediately across the Ili
wassee, are among the most important
grain depots on the road. Riccville,
Mouse Creek, Sweet Water, and Phila
delphia, are intermediate stations, each
•hipping large quantities of grain.—
Athene, the county site of McMinn, liee
half-hid, in a beautiful valley, a short
distance from the railroad, and is the
largest town between Cleveland and
Knoxville.
X regret that time, and the regulations
of the trains would not permit me to
stop there without tarrying a whole
day, which is a longer period than I
«an spare at this time.
McNellt, of the Banner, at Cleveland,
is about to send up a painter to brush
up the place ; whereat Ivins says that
since Cleveland is finished, their painters
are naturally anxious to get a job in
some growing place, and thinks if they
will come up they can be accommodated
in Athens. Last night, at the soiree, in
Cleveland, Sam. Smith termed Ivins and
McNh.lt the long and the short of the
Tennessee press. Me. being 6 feet 4,
while Ivins is about 5 feet C, and 1 ‘chun
ky” at that.
Loudon is a quiet place, grown pre
maturely old by the withdrawal of bus
iness incident to the extensiqn of the
Railroad. “To Let” might be inscribed
on nearly the whole place. I find that
the solitary subscriber to the Daily Dis
patch here has run away, and I must im
prove the time of my sojourn to fill his
place. There are three or four stores
that do a fair business, and boats run
to Chattanooga, bringing considerable
grain to this point. If Loudon had not
been made so large at first, it would
have been a very thrifty village ; but
there is so much of it standing idle that
it imparts a dull aspect to the whole
place. It is suggestive of an ancient
town visited by Diogenes. Observing
the huge gates, he entered, expecting
to find a considerable city. On entering
he found but a small town, and he-ad
monished them to shut the gates, lest the
tity run away ! I thought of this when
I approached the large three-story ho
iol, with rooms enough to accommodate
the entire population of the piace. It
is a comfortable house, however, and is
the stopping point for persons going to
Montvale Springs. Passengers reach
here at half-past ten, and leave for the
springs the next morning, having a good
night's sleep and a capital breakfast.
The Loudon Mills are in successful op
eration, turning out about 75 barrels of
flour per day. Wheat is worth 65 to /5
cents, and the quality is no bettor than
it is below. Old red brings 85 cts.
I notice that friend Cooper, of the
Advertiser, at Chattanooga, has dubbed
me Col. I suppose he has fallen into the
popular impression that every adult
Georgian is either Judge or Col. ; hut
having never held an office, made a
speech, or owned a distillery, I cannot
accept the prefix, which, like the quirk
of a pig's tail, may look very well, but
is of no possible use. Friend Cooper,
however, from his familiarity with offi
cial circles, (he is Collector of the port
of Chattanooga), is excusablefor having
imagined his Georgia brethren the recip
ients of some official honors, even if it be
but the trifling distinction of a Colonel
in the Militia.
The electric telegraph is working a
great change in the circles of general
news. Everybody that has adaily mail
will now have a daily paper. Looking
for news in a weekly, along the rail
roads, is like traveling by stage in pre
ference to the cam—it is worse —it is
like going on foot, and crippled at that.
When news is flashed across the two
hemispheres in but an hour, he must
be patient indeed who waits to glean it
from the weekly pross. Daily papers
are now necessities ; and cheap dailies
will become a part of the household
economy of every well regulated family.
So mote it be. Yours, A.
A i Jinlleiige.
The Buchanan democracy, of Illinois,
through their State Central Committee,
have issued a challenge to the Republi
can party, to meet them on the stump
in each Congressional District. The
committee state that “ National democ
racy will defend the Supreme Court of
the United States in the “ Died Scott "
decision, and the Administration of
James Buchanan, with the Kansas poli
cy of the National Democratic par-1
ty- "
The Chicago Journal, the Black Re- :
pnblican organ, says: “Provided Sena
tor Douglas will join our friends in emu- !
batting the above propositions, as ahly
as he iB now doing, single-handed, we
aro in favor of accepting the challenge."
Anotlki-r Insult to the South. |
] A telegraph dispatch from Washing-1
j ton of the Bth inst., gives us the infer- :
! mation, that Mr. Buchanan, aided by
Howell Cobb, of Georgia, Thompson, of ;
: Mississippi, Brown, of Tennessee, Floyd, .
'of Virginia, have “concluded an ar- j
! raugement with the Colonization Socie ]
I ty to support and educate the captured
I I Africans in Liberia for one year for fifty
, I thousand dollars.”
It is not needed that we should tell
I
j our readers that this Colonization Socie
f ty is an Abolitionist concern, rotten to
tire core.
j There arehundredaof planters,humane,
g responsible men, who would have been
willing and glad to have taken charge
’ of these negroes in Louisiana, or many
t other States, at a less price than $l5O
per head, which is now to be paid to
’ | Abolitionists. These Southern planters,
, who understand the nature of the nc
b
gro, and know how to instruct him, are
not good enough for the purpose. They
could not be trusted by the Govern
"t i
ment under which they live! But men
Q
, who have received their education in
d
those places where Beeciier andGREELT
are oracles—they are perfectly compe
-8 tent and wholly trustworthy! It is not
0 to be wondered at, that such should be
e the sentiments of Buchanan, but those
who do not understand tiie motives of
Cobb and other Southern members of
, tho Cobinet, may feel surprised that
i (Ac// should entertain such notions of
t Southern capacity and honesty !
! The Niagara is to take the Africans to
i Liberia. This, at the very lowest esti
! mate, cannot fall short of an expense
1 es (20,000) twenty thousand dollars.—
1 Then the Colonization Society is to re
• ceive ($50,000) fifty thousand dollars.
' For what ? One year’s training in Li
- beria. And under whose auspices is this
work of training to he cairicd on ? Un
der the eye and control of the preseut i
- negro president of Liberia! He is far ■
- more competent to take care of negroes |
3 than any planter in the South !
I Now this will he held up as human!
tjty ! But we will not conceal the fact j
. i that the captured Africans are not to be'
-!sent within one thousand miles of the)
i place from whence they came ! Resto- 1
5 ration, is it ? Better call it by its true i
i name, a bribe given to Abolitionists of the
- North to purchase their good will towards the i
t corrupt Southern men who hold office at U'rrs/i
--1 j inglon !
t And, at ftie end of one year, what j
,t more will those Africans know than
e now? Is there, among our readers,
t such a simpleton as to suppose that
g those negroes, mostly from eight to four
g teen years of age, will be any more able
g to take care of themselves at the expi
-- ration of the one year than now ? What
ic is to become of them when the year is
u ended ? Are they then to be turned
loose, to be caught by the negro who
e presides in Liberia and sold to the
t French ? That will certainly be the
s case, or they will perish as hundreds of
t> negroes have perished, within a few
a years, at that famed land of negro glo
e ry. Or more likely—mark the predic
j tion— this government will be called
upon to furnish another fifty thousand
dollars for their support for another!
f year—four fifths to go as skatings into
5 the pockets of the worthies who have
„ the management of the swindle. And
those men, who can sanction the pre
s sent transaction will, of course, see
] nothing but eminent propriety in ma
. kiug such an appropriation. This Gov
t eminent is to be confirmed as an Abo
t lition Agent, whose projects are to be
j carried on with money stolen from the
t pockets of Southern planters’ by the
i most unfair system of taxation that
t ever insulted and wronged a free peo
j pie. Free people, did we say ? That
. pie does not exist in these States of
t the South!
But we are not surprised. The Gov
’ ernment that has spent fifteen millions
of dollars on the coast of Africa, with
j out a shadow of warrant in the Consti
tution, would hardly stickle at a fur
(ither unlawful appropriation of fifty or ;
I seventy thousand for the same purpo- 1
I ses. After Mr. Cobb's unblushing dis
regard of law, in the case of the Rich- i
aid Cobden, he would hardly hesitate at
thiN last act. ;
We expect that the course of the 1
Government, in this matter, will receive !
the commendation of the same subset- (
vient editorial tools who endorsed and <
defended his letter to Lamar ! 'lhey 1
will, no doubt, hail it as another “tri
uuiphof the South !” s; 1

Remarkable Phenomenon Immense
, Swarms of Stinnge Insects.
Poplar Ridge, N. Y., )
1 September 2, 1858. )’
Yesterday, at about four o'clock P.
, M., the atmosphere became suddenly
filled with myriads of insects of a type
entirely unknown in this region, as far
as I can learn. The phenomenon is
, known to have extended several miles,
and appears to have occurred at the
same moment. The insect is about one
fourth of an inch long, and closely re
sembles the common ant.
But the strangest part of the matter
(that is, to me,(remains to he told. As j
soon as they appeared, they began to
alight upon whatever object they came;
incontact with .and W give birth to young in
sects ready winged, which, in a few seconds as
cended into the air, while the old ones,
threw themselves into violent contor
tions, which continued until they suc
ceeded in ridding themselves of their;
wings—after which, they appeared to'
feel much relieved, and ran briskly'
about upon the ground, as contented, j
apparently, as though they had never
possessed the power of flight. In an
hour, the earth was alive with these fal- j
len insect-angels, and strewn with their!
lifeless wings—while their tiny, new
born progeny, had ascended, ami were
sporting in the beams of the evening
sun ! This morning the parent insects
may be seen secreted among the grass, l
] or whatever offered protection for the
' night, while the new generation appear
! dormant upon the surface, awaiting the
I warming rays of the risiug sun ?
Etomologists may be familiar with
\ such a perpetuation of an insect race,
without the intervening link of the
! larva;. If so, will some one enlighten,
jus on the subject? S. Yoeng. |

These letters are from sections widely j

were never to have another good crop. I
We had hoped that Georgia would be j
favored this year with an abundance of |
all kinds of agricultural products, and j
such anticipations never had a better
foundation, but misfortunes are com
ing too thick and fast to indulge in
any such hopes, at least as regards the

celebrity possessed by none other. The whole
Machine can be built for one third the cost of
any other, and will rive and shave from the bolt
from 8,000 to 15,000 Shingles per day. ( For this 1
purpose it only requires a two-horse power to 1
work it : at the same time you can make any
required length, and it is adjustable to any re
quired thickness or taper : it is simple, cheap 1
uud durable, any mechanic can make
it, aud a boy may it.

I Solved!—PK. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
| has lost tho. power of duly converting food into a
j life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
J course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastrk
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufierer, while his digestive organization was
paralyze*! and unstrung, becomes, under the
j wholesome revolution created in the system, the
1 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
-1 r ors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
' terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
J nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
: or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition
j of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with tho 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 in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hards of
I medical mm.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite
While it renews the strength of the digestive
i powers it creates a desire for the solid material
which is to be subjected to their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pbarmacopla.
If long lile 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 the ailing
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
' 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 thi3 incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
. will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard
| against that terrible malady. There are many
i perhaps who have so trifled with their conatitu
j 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
j lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
! the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

liTThe New ami Startling
Poem of the Dress for the Ilair :
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 ii. [fair.
Miss Flora had heard of a noted Professor,
Who dressed his own hair, tho’ no; a Hairdresser,
With a magical, wonderful, great preparation.
(Now used in vast quantities over the nation.)
This noted Professor was grey as a rat
At juvenile thirty—no older than that —
And the amount of poor hair his crown had on it,
(Though now as black us a rav< n’s wing,
With lustre enough for a ball room king,)
Would not have been accepted, such was its
harsh and dry ehara^cr^bvLapy fa*hi<>ni.-t,how-
S £4> , T*T7akl si.elnight have been, who e’er wor? <

This is all of this beautiful and startling poem
which will be published in this paper. II you

which Miss McFlimsey applied to her hair, call

and promoting the growth and restoring the
original color of the hair, ever safe, put before

several are already in tho market, called by dif
ferent names. Use none unless the words (Pro- j

Hoxesdai.B Co., Penn., .lan. 10, 1830—Mr. I
Seth W. Fowle— Sir: You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the benefit ol the as- '
flicted:
• I was attacked with ttife Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink ol
the grave. Luring my sickness I was attended
by three physicians in our place, but received
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 j
persuaded to try TTufa/\> Balsam of Wild
Cherry, and by using four bottles I was restored !
to better health than I have enjoyed before for j
ten years. This statement may be relied upon ,
a? strictly true. Betsey Perkin.
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, ol Honesdale, who is well
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner.
