AUGU STA.GA:
Monday Evening, Sept. 13,1858.
EDITORIAL. CJOSSIPi'ING.
Knoxville, Tenn. , Sept 3.—The coun
try from below Athens to this place is
admirably* adapted to agricultural pur
suits, and presents a very thrifty ap
pearance. The farmers pursue a sys
tem very different from the continuous
cotton-growing policy of our Georgia
land-killers. They rotate from one
staple to another, and much attention
is being paid to the raising of bay.—
Tennessee must continue to rank very
high as an agricultural State, for while
many of her Atlantic sisters were worn
out before railroads were built, her lands
are well-opened and still fresh, and will
afford for her excellent system of rail
roads a permanent and increasing busi
ness. I never look out upon the thou
sand hills that varieagate the landscape
of Upper Georgia and Tennessee, with
out wondering that so little attention
is paid to wool-growing. Thousands of
acres of rough mountain lands lie in
the primeval wilderness, on which my
riads of sheep would find ample graz
ing. The dogs, of which every poor
settler has a pack, are so destructive to
flocks, that dis
hartened, and the counflPis deprived
of a valuable source of revenue. The
worthless hordes of men and dogs who
hunt and fish in these mountains, must
sooner or later bow to the edict of pro
gress, and give place to the advent of a
superior race which will fleece the country
to better advantage.
Knoxville shows visible marks of the
late panic. Business, for a year, has
• been very dull here, and property has
depreciated. Many stores have changed
hands, and some are closed. One of
the leadingmachine works —the “Knox
ville Manufacturing Company ” —is
closed up on account of the stagnation,
but will open again soon. It is owned
by a company with ample means. Bu
siness is looking up at present, but, in
all departments of trade, the place
seems to have been overstocked, and
the adventurous rush, incident to new
towns, will now gradually subside into
legitimate business channels, anil the
surplus bubbles will float off to try
some other tide. There are heavy in
dustrial enterprises in progress here
which will do much to sustain the city.
The Knoxville Machine Works is the
most important of these, where a varie
ty of agricultural implements, stoves,
&c., are manufactured. The Knoxville
City Mills is one of the best flour mills
I have seen. It is capable of turning out
200 barrels per day, and the flour from
this mill has a good reputation in mar
ket. Mr. Ingles also has a small mill
which makes superior flour. The "Sligo
Mining Company” is turning out beauti
ful mantelpieces and furniture work
from the variagated Tennessee marble.
Cabinet makers and Architects would do
well to examine tlieir work.
The railroad fever has rather prostra
ted than benefitted the place, thus far.
The East Tennessee and Georgia, and
the Virginia Road takes everybody
through without stopping to say “good
morning.” The Knoxville & Kentucky
Road is making little or no headway,
and the Rabun Gap Road is progressing
6lowiy.
The telegraph from Lynchburg is
completed to this place, and dispatches
were received aud transmitted, for the
first time, to-day. It will be continued
on to Chattanooga, anu connect with
the Augusta, Atlanta and Nashville
line, , which is to be put in thorough
working order to Augusta immediately.
The printing establishment owned by
Mr. Charles A. Rice, comprising
“ Broumhm's Knoxville Whig, the “Knox
ville Register” and a fine Job Office and
Bindery, was sold yesterday. The whole
brought $3,200. The original cost was
about $15,000. The papers will be
continued.
An elderly man, named Jesse Morgan,
was run over by the passenger train on
the East Tennessee and Virginia Road,
this morning, at Whiteshurg, about 50
miles from Knoxville, and killed. He
had been drinking.
I am quartered at the “ Lamar
House,” which has passed into the man
agement of J. W. Bridces, late of the
firm of Campbell & Bridges. He is an
obliging, sociable and gentlemanly host,
and what is better, the house is well
kept, in every respect. It qi a number

The Register of this morning says that
Hr. Brownlow had arrived safely in
Philadelphia, on the 7th inst., and
had met with his Abolition antagonist,
Hr. Pryne. His voice, although, some
what improved, was not sufficiently re
stored to authorize him to undertake
the proposed dissuasion,” but as Dr.
Pryne would not assent to a postpone
ment, “he was endeavoring to secure
the services of some one to read his
manuscript.” How very considerable
lions are Rev. Mr. Pkyne and Dr. I
Brownlow, just at present. It is hoped
that good will grow out of the discus-;
sion. It is likely, at least, to pay very
well.
John W. Wiuye. re-arrested at Chat
tanooga, on the charge of forging land
warrants, has been undergoing exami- :
| nation at that place {during the week.
I It is said that there arc nearly two hun
dred -cases against him. He was bound
over to the Federal Court in a bond of
$15,000 for himself, and SIO,OOO for
i his securities.
The mail reaches Knoxville from the
- South via Dalton, at half past twelve at
s night, and from the North at 10 o'clock
- and 20 minutes, A. M., proceeding on
- immediately.
- The grain crop of this region is very
s light, and-corn has been much damaged
i by the drought. Prime white wheat,
; old crop, sells at 90 cents. The new
i crop affords very little prime, and sells
from 65 to 75 cents. There is very lit
r tie corn in market, and prices are nom
; inal. The last sales reported were at
i 40 and 45 cents. Bacon is in .very light
»; supply here. Dealers are paying 8 1-4 to
1 8 1-2 cents for sides and hams, from
- wagons. Shoulders 6 cents. Lard is
- scare and brings 9 1-4 cents in cans.

1 Death of George Newbold.— The New
York Journal of Commerce of the 9th inst., |
says: “Geo. Newbold, President of the
Bank of America, died yesterday morn
ing about eight and a half o’clock,
wnile on a visit to some of his friends in
Pennsylvania. He was seventy-eight
years of age, and his sickness was very
brief. He was one of the oldest bank
ing officers in the United States, and
highly esteemed.
Cotton.—We clip the following ex
tract from the Courier Sf Enquirer, a pa-1
per as well posted in statistics as any in j
this country: “One of the gratifying;
features of the Commercial world is the j
renewed and steady demand for cotton j
—a demand that increases in a much j
greater ratio than the increase of pop-)
illation. The European demand aniL
prices are such as to furnish an ample
guarantee of remuneration to our South-;
ern planters for a few years to come.—
, With all the available sources of supply
. from Egypt, Asia, Australia, and South
, imerica, the cotton of the United
States is not enough to meet the grow
ing demand in Europe.
.
Dinner In Honor of Literary Ladles.
The Charleston News says :—“A din
ner is proposed to be given in New York
to Mrß. Le Vert, of Mobile, and Mrs.
' Anna Cora Ritchie, of Richmond. Two
hundred tickets are to be issued, one
hundred for ladies and the remainder
for gentlemen, the price of which is ten
dollars, and the proceeds are to be de-
I voted to the Mount Vernon Fund. This
is a new feature in American manfesta
tions of homage to talent Public din
ners to ladies naturally form an addition
to those pleasures of excitement which
characterize the Gothamites.
' A Train Stopped by Grasshoppers
It is stated that a freight train on the
* Newburg (N. Y.) Branch road was stop
' ped by grasshoppers a few days since.—
Large numbers of grasshoppers had
’ alighted upon, it literally covering the
* rail. The train passed over several thou
sand of them, which made the track so
’ slippery that thewheels turned round
' without going forward. Sand was pro
cured and poured upon the rail,when the
’ train resumed its accustomed motion
> and proceeded without any further de
: lay.
1 Gov. Cumming and tlae Mormons.
t The Washington States mentions some
? facts, which it says are only specimens
t of hundreds of a similar character,
showing that Brigham Young is as pow
• erful in Utah as ever, aud that the title
• he has lost is the only appurtenance of
. the Governor of the Territory which
Gov. Cumming enjoys.
The Philadelphia Inquirer says that
strange rumors are in circulation in re
l
lation to Gov. Cumming and the Mor
mons. It is intimated, that he has, un
der very suspicious circumstances, be- i
come a great favorite with Brigham ;
Young and the leading priests and el
ders, while at the same time he has lost
the confidence of the officers of the
United States Government who werej
stationed in Utah. The Governor may
have acted wisely and well, but doubts
arc expressed upon the subject.
Negro Murderer Arrested.—Day he
fore yesterday, after a fierce struggle,
three runaway negroes were arrested
near Raleigh, and were yesterday \
trough to this city and lodged in jail.'
During the scuffle, the negroes attempt
ed to shoot their captors: but fortu
; tunately the caps on their weapons
“snapped." One of the three confesses
I that he shot Mr. Bowen of Arkansas,
! | a few days ago, an account of which
j we gave. The negro says, however,
, that he acted in self defence—a plea
which we hardly think will stand.—
Memphis Eagle, U)th inst.
. Unfortunate Affair.
A riot occurred in front of a bar
. room, on the corner of Bryan and East
broad streets, between twelve and one
o'clock, yesterday, (the origin of which
’.we were unable to ascertain,) during:
i which several persons were more or less
. 1 injured by rocks and brick-bats hurled
jby the infuriates. We regret to have
;to state that Mr. John H. Willink,
(who was passing at the time,) while
! using every effort to quell the disturb
ance, was struck with a missile over the
j left temple, lracturing his skull, and
j rendering his situation extremely criti
; cal. Several parties have been arres
ted, and the affair will be duly investi
gated, when further particulars will be
furnished,—.She. News, VitMnsl.
Commerce and Trade.
We extract from the Philadelphia
Ledger the following statistics :
Let us turn our attention to the en
; orrnous extent of the commerce and
• ! trade of the United States, see whence
; it is derived, what part of the country
lias the greatest share of it, and how is
i it enriched thereby. The imports and
t exports for the thirty-seven years pre
. ■ ceding 1858, were as follows :
Imports
i Merchandise $5,001,835,757
Coin ami Bullion 305,967,542
Total $5,307,803,299
1 Exports
, Domestic Produce $4,054,792,132
Foreign Merchandise 503,888,890
' Coin and Bullion 505,724,270
3
- Total $5,464,405,298
New York has imported $3,133,878,-
328 of tills amount of importations, or
f three fifths of the whole sum, which
t has been distributed over the United
,' States in sales or in exchange for the
produce of the country, brought over
1 her railroads and canals, and in her
i coasting steamers. The three States of
Massachusetts, New York and Pennsyl
vania have
Imported $4,442,217,825
[ Exported 2,305,130,056
' Excessof imports $2,137,087,757
Whence came the means to pay this
• excess, or discharge this great debt! It
came from the agricultural productions
of the South aud West. The three
States of Maryland, South Carolina and
Louisiana have, in the period mention
ed,
Exported $1,776,370,053
Imported 636,476,472
Excess of exports $1,138,894,581
This excess was furnished by the fol
lowing States:
Maryland $12,962,950
South Carolina 301,353,485
Louisiana 824,578,146
81,138,894,381
Out of the whole domestic produce
exported, amounting to $4,053,792,132,
three articles of Southern production
furnished, besides supplying the home
consumption, more than onc-half the
; amount, as follows :
Cotton exported $2,090,205,952
Tobacco “ 301,209,386
Rice “ 81,209,386 j
Total $2,472,624,742
In addition to this, the breadstuffs
and provisions sent forward from the
j West in value amounted to $872,690,-
1108, making a grand total of $3,345,-
! 314,833, ami leaving only $709,477,299
!as the contribution of the manufac
j tures and produce of the Northern j
j States to the exports of the country.— J
| The Soutli and West then supply the ms-!
I terials of exportation, to purchase the;
foreign commodities imported into
Northern cities, and constituting our ex
ternal commerce.
These foreign importations, and the
domestic manufactures supplied to the
South for consumption, constitute the j
trade and business of the country, and
require the vast machinery of railroads I
and canals to transport from one section I
to the other.
Rain! Rain!! Rain!*!!—We have j
had rain every day for a week, some of i
the showers being remarkably heavy —|
We hear that it is extensive, and has 1
! already produced great injury to long!
staple cotton. — Savannah Republican , 13fAj
inst.
We would call the attention of “the
powers that be” to the condition of
Whitaker street after a rain. We know j
of at least three times during the past j
week where it has been almost impossi
ble to cross it any where between York
and Liberty streets, and yesterday, at
the intersection of Hull, the water;
ranged from three to four feet deep, for
over two hours. We have forborne any j
remarks until we were nearly afloat, as j
was the case yesterday from three to five j
o’clock, and the prospect before us at
present that we shall go slipperless to
bed or take a “cold snack,” as the fires
i are all out in the kitchen, and the coon
up ta her gaiters in water, hailing out.
The sinks in the neighborhood were
overflowed, and to add to the flood we j
had an intolerable stench. Such a
state of things will be certain to pro- j
duce sickness if they do not receive irr.- j
mediate attention. Will not the chair
man of the Street and Lane Committee
devise a remedy for such serious ills.—
Ih.
Have your Printing done at Home.—
We have lying on our desk the circu
lar of the Huntsville Female College,
Alabama, with a Report of the Exam
ining Committee of the College ; June,
1857, attached. At the bottom of that
report appeared the following signifi
cant item (italics our own):
Note.— lt is to be regretted that the
proof of the accompanying Annual Cir
cular could not be corrected by the Pres
ident. It was printed in New York, and
seven thousand copies have been sent j
; us, full of errors, grammatical and or-1
j thographical. The quantity is too great j
| to throw aside ; and, besides, it is now j
| too late to have others printed.
Comment is unnecessary.

Honors to Ex-President Pierce.—
The Press, speaking of Ex-President
! Pierce's tour in Europe,says :
All along the route, from Lisbon to;
Marseilles, he has been the recipient of i
distinguished consideration from public I
officers and private citizens. At Gibral-i
ter, the senior officer in command of
the British naval forces at that point
extended marked courtesies, and urged
[ the Ex-President and Mrs. Pierce to take
! passage for Tangiers in one of her Ma
jesty's public armed vessels. At Mar
: seiies the French authorities, headed by
the perfect and the military command-i
er, were especially attentive aud zealous j
in acts of hospitality.

■j ti" The Great Pi'oblein
!' Solv»d!—I)R. MORSE'S INVIGORATINC COR
. I DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
I haft lost the power of duly converting food into a
| life-sustaining t-lement, is relieved by a single
i course of this extraordinary tauic. The gastric
j fluid re acquires its solventpower. and the crude
1 j nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
t 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-
J rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
I ten iblelassitude which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
t or disability arising from the unnatural condition
1 of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
• from the use or 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 ha n ds of
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 material
which is to be subjected to their action. As an
i appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
I If long life and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
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 general de
| bility or from the weakness of a single organ
> willall find immediateand permanent relief from
' the use of this 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
; perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
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
j the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

£-• 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 ii. [fair. 1
Miss Flora had heard of a noted Professor, (
Who dressed his own hair, tho’ not a Hairdresser,
With a magical, wonderful, great preparation, J
(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 as a ravt n’s wing,
With lustre enough for a ball room king,)
WouM not have been accepted, such was its
harsh and dry character, by any fashionist,how
ever bald she might have been, who e’er wore
a bonno

—llo.Yr..,i».LE Co.. Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr.
Seth W. Fowls—Sir : You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the benefit of the as
! flicted :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink ol
the grave. During my sickness I was attended i
! by three physicians in our place, but received
ino help. I also tried the various remedies re
• commended for such complaints, but they af
j forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
| persuaded to try Wisiar's Balsam of Wild
| Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored
to better health than 1 have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
I as strictly true. Betsey Perrin.
j The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, ol Houc3dale, who is well
! known in his vicinity as asuccessful practitioner.

UrCnrc the Liver.—'l here is
• an article selling throughout the country that
i has attained the widest celebrity ever known as
i a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
I once 'to DR. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, OR
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures a
most too great to believe, were n not lor the u
! doubted evidence that accompany the testimo
| nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
1 ! or Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debiliv
J 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 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
1 let the world havo the benefit of his discovery.
If those who are troubled with debility, head
’ ache, languor, or slow, lingering f< vor, wi'l try
• a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—
