dbcrang llispattjj.j ~AUqPBTA.GA : Wednesday TEveiling, Bfpt. IS, ISSN. EDITORIAL OOSSIPITKO. East Tennessee & Ga. B. K. Sept. 11. .—We are accustomed to hear the re- Mark that railroads have created a re solution in the commercial relations of the country, causing marts to spring up ■from the wilderness, and leaving to ■bats and owls many of the little cross road centres of business of the days of wagon trade and stage coaches. There are also those who assume that the •ountry is no better for all this pro gress, and these antiquated fogies real ly regard the iron horse as a great bum bug, after all. But figures—which it is said never lie—illustrate the absurdi ty of the assumption that there is no actual benefit in these startling innova tions. A case in point is afforded in the value of the property along the line es the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad, extending from Bristol to Lynchburg. In 1860 the value of taxable property along the line of this road, a distance of 207 miles, was $28,942,647—and in 1866, we find the assessment to be $63, #17,229 ! an increase, in six years, of #20,366,658. And nearly all this in crease is the result of the completion of that railroad, the total cost of which was $7,000,000. Who can say that there is no benefit resulting from this great work, when the increase in the value of property is shared by the people along the line. The benefit resulting to oth ers at the extremities of the road is not considered. And our own gigantic internal improvement—the State Road — affords an illustration equally striking, es the appreciation in property along its borders. Much croaking has been heard because of the expense of Build ing this road, and of the danger that it would never pay—are not the thriving towns and cities of Cherokee Georgia, aud her rich valließ, teeming with fer tility—perpetual and ample dividends on the investment, even should it never return a dollar of its actual earnings to the treasury. I alluded, in a previous letter, to the promising condition of the agricultural interests of Tennessee, with her fine system of railroads, while her soil is not exhausted. There is much yet wanting to develope the resources of the State—much of industry and mus cle—and it is questionable if the pre sent population, unaided by an infusion from the industrial elements of some other clime, will soon accomplish the high destiny for which nature fitted the State. In all countries where nature has been liberal in her bounties, the people are disposed to let the old dame do a large share of the work, and as a result, there is a numerous class of easy-going people who live in a rude style, relying opon the rich lands around them for an ample harvest. A lack of slaves is ob servable, especially throughout the Eastern portion of the State, and there is no reasonable doubt that a more lib eral infusion of the “ institution, ” would greatly enhance all the interests of the commonwealth. With a chance to get slaves cheap, the ambition of these easy souls would be aroused, and I know of no region better adapted to 1 realise the very highest and most beau- ' tiful aspects of the patriarchal charac- 1 ter of slavery than the small farmers of Upper Georgia and Tennessee. , It would probably be interesting to ' our readers, who are unfamiliar with 1 the new route North, through Tennes- I see and Virginia, to know the different railroads which comprise it, and their | extent and termini. The East Tennes- < see and Georgia Road from Dalton to j Knoxville, is 110 miles in length. The , East Tennessee and Virginia Road, from ; Knoxville to Bristol, is 120 miles in J length. From Bristol, the Virginia ] and Tennessee road extends to Lynch burg, 204 miles. From Lynchburg, the 1 South Side Road extends to Burkesville, 70 miles ; from thence to Richmond is , 53 miles-from Richmond to Washing ] ton is 130 miles—making the distance j from Dalton to Washington 687 miles, j From Dalton to Atlanta the distance is < 100 miles. i | ( The roads beyond Knoxville have ! been overrun with freights, and \ wheat has accumulated to the great an- I noyance of dealers. The passenger travel has been also immense, and the j tide is now pouring Southward at the rate of one to two hundred per day. The weather for some day 6 has been ' hot, with intermittent rains, and there is much complaint of chills and fever in the valley settlements. This hurried scrawl will probably conclude my up-country gossipping for the present; and I only regret that my ; homed trip has deprived me of seeing many of the interesting resorts of this Beet ion of the South, and has rendered the brief allusions to what I have seen, so crude and imperfect. It is but just to oliserve that they have been written in pencil, sometimes on the cars, and hence often almost illegible, and trying to the printer. The reader will it U hoped find in this some apology for the inaccuracies in style or spelling that have be Often ol» rvable. A. {Correspondence of the Dispatch .] I ! Warrextox, Ga., Sept. 14, 1858. I jj K . Editor The cotton crops in ' this locality arc badly injured with rust, ! and the cotton crop of this county, this j year, will hardly he as large as last ! year's crop—there are no fields that is making any at all, at this time, that 1 can hear of. The pea crop also, is bald ly injured with something like rust.—- Many farmers will scarcely be able to gather seed peas. W. H. E. A Scene at Fountain Camp Meeting. A portion of the free negroes about Warrenton hired, at the Livery Stable, a vehicle known as Jenny land, ogo to the Camp Ground. Leaving their vehi cle near the road, when the man, a darkey, proceeded to unhitch the horses. ■ Coming back, he picked op the tongue -of the vehicle to turn it a little out of ■ the way, when away it went down one > of those sleep hills, with three women - in it, at a speed that a horse could have i hardly run. Women screaming for life ■ —vehicle turning over twice, throwing , said women out head foremost, com pletely smashing in the top of the vehi cle. Some white ladies not far off, see i Jug the women thrown out with such violence, screamed and hollowed to their male friends to run and help up those ladies, which they did. On arriving at the spot and finding them to be darkeys, they declined helping them up. The screaming of the females, and the rat tling and smashing of the vehicle, brought the people from all parts of the camp ground, in less than ten minutes. : There must have been some one thou sand or fifteen hundred persons on the ; i spot to enquire what was the matter— j : when they were much astonished to - learn that a wagon, or in other words, i the Jenny Lind, without the use ofj ! horses, mules, or beast of any kind, run! i away, doing great damage to Mit, Suk., - and hoops, as well as mashing the bon- j t nets of others. It is enough to say that ; they did not present altogether as; grand an appearance on their return home as they did when they went) i to meeting. I have no doubt but this | is the last trip that the party ever will take to Fountaiu Camp Ground in the runaway Jenny Lind. Eye Witness. | United States District Court. The regular fall session of this Court i is now in session in Marietta. A cor i respondent informs us that there is an unusual attendance of able attorneys.— I The case of Arsox Banos & Co. , vs Blue Ridof. Railroad, comes up this term, but it was thought it would be postpon ed. This case involves some millions of dollars, and has been prepared with j the most consummate skill: The testi mony on both sides has been printed, and makes two volumes of about 800 pages each. Among the Counsel for the complain ants are T. R. R. Cobb, Cobb & Hdll, and J. E. Ward, Esquires. Among those for the defense are Petti grue of Charleston, Judge Law and F. j S. Bartow, of Savannah. - Gone to Boston. Lieut. Maffit, it is known, touched at New York to transfer the captain of the slaver to the frigate Sabine, that he might he conveyedjtoCharleston for tri al. It now appears that the Comman der of the Sabine having no instruction or warranty of authority to receive the prisoner, refused to take him ou board j and Lieut. Maffit was therefore compell- , ed to proceed with him to Boston. j < Death of Mayor Fontaxe.— The Key ' of the Gulf announces the death of Hon. Phillip J.

Health of Memphis. —The report ofr the Board of Health published elsewhere j exhibits a gratifying state of the public ] health. Only ten deaths are reported as having occurred in the limits of the , city during the week ending at 12 M. yesterday, and one of these was caused by violence. There ha6been no yellow fever in Memphis this season, and no prospect whatever exists that there will be a single case.— Mem. Bulletin,Vlth inti. Revival. It is gratifying to know that there is at present a very interesting Revival of religion going on in the various church es in this city, and especially among the Methodists. From the statements made by all who attend theexercises going on at these places of worship, it is evident that much good has been accomplished during this refreshing period, and that the true spirit of piety has been aroused in our community. Let it go on, and, let its benefits be universal and uncon-j fined.— Atlanta Intelligencer, 1 ‘ilk. j Good Cotton Picking. —Mr. W.

At the last ac ! counts, Professor Hughes had two in . struments with him in London, and was i preparing to leave with one of them for ! I Trinity Bay. It was arranged that the - j cable company should send a special >] steamer from Liverpool to Trinity Bay , ] on or about the 10th of this month, to f] convey the Professor and his assistants, i with all necessary instruments and oth-] . er fixtures for working the cable. He] •; will arrive there about the 20th or 25th ] t of the month, and will of course re i! quire a few days for preparation and J ijtlie adjustment of the machinery.—; j This will occupy him until the 28th of] i] September, or perhaps to the Ist of Oc- j [ tober, but certainly not longer.

Aii American Desert—Terrible Suffer ing from Thirst. A long letter appears in the Dallas I I (Texas) Herald, concerning the passage ! of McCullough's emigrant train across : the staked plain to California, from j which we take the following extracts : From Fort Chadborne wa travelled I South to the Choncho river (old Camp ! Johnson,) then followed up theChoncho | to the edge of the great American De sert. The great American Desert is a barren waste. Soil, light and alkaline 1 nature, producing jnostly salt grass and ! a few mezquite {bushes and cactus. — ] This kind of country extends from the i Colorado to the Rio Grande, is 250 miles j in width and extends through our con ] tinent, being narrower in some points. There are but few watering places on ] the route from the Peace to the Rio ] Grande. The herd had no water for seventy six hours, and traveled one hundred and thirty miles. The herds men were without water or nourishment j thirty hours. Their exercise was very hard, riding and hollowing at the cattle, and was] calculated to bring on thirst soon. The men suffered extremely for want of wa ter and sleep : many 6bot down the famishing bullocks on the road, stuck, 1 pulled off their boots or shoes, caught the thick, hot blood and drank it freely, and by so doing saved their lives. The , cattle were all very much excited, and any of them would fight, and the men were compelled to shoot many. ! * Wo went into the Sand Hills with , 1600 head of cattle, or struck the saud i with that number, and left with about ] 1058, many of the missing having died ] for the want of water. On arriving, , the men were all excited and hardly i knew their comrades. Dan. Murray, 1 Wheatly, Celton, and Collier would never have got to water had not some I of the herdsmen been sent on after wa ter and returned to them. They had stopped by the side of the road. * *w- Larqe Prices. —A few days ago, in Newberu, North Caroliua, five likely negroes brought six thousand dollars at ■ private sale, being an averageof $1,200; \ j cash transaction.

A boy 12 years old, for $1,010; a boy 13 L years old, for $1000; a boy 7 years*old, j . for $525; a boy 8 years old, for $580; j, two others, 7 and 8 respectively, for ' S7OO and $725; a woman about 25 years ] old, and one child, for $875; a woman, ] same age, and two children, for $1050; a man 60 years old, for $480—56955. *.«. Yellow Fever In New Orleans. There is no abatement of this fatal ! disease in New Orleans. The Picayune | of the 11th inst. remarks : The weekly report affords no more fa j vorable aspect. The a Imissions during the week amounted to 293; the dis ! charges were 91 les6, viz : 202, and of 1 these only 90 were of yellow fever.— The deaths, on the other hand were 118 ’of yellow fever. There remained in ‘.he institution last night 668. The manner in which the disease I thus fluctuates leaves hut little room for | encouraging the hope that we so long j to feel justified in indulging and forti ; fying in others; and we can but in pat ience await the mercy of Him in whose hand are all things.

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 I was attended by three physicians in our place, but received no help. I also tried the various remedies re commended fur such complaints, but they af forded me no relief. As a last resort, I wot persuaded to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored to better health than I have enjoyed before for ten years. This statement may be relied upon as strictly true. Betsky Pbkrjn. The above certificate was given in the pre sence of Dr. A.
