_ AUGUSTA, GA:
-Jlomtay Evening, Sept. 3», I* sß,
' Deaf and Duuii) Asylum.
We publish in another place, the pro
ceedings of a meeting of the citizens
of Cave Spring, in reference to the late
dismissal of 0. P- Fannin, Esq,, fiom
that institution. We have for some
time been aware that there was a politi
co-religious clique about Cave Spring,
that sought to secure his removal, but
we had hoped that the Commissioners
would discard the considerations of
party and of religion, and act in refer
ence to the best interests of the institu
tion. Mr. Fans in was the founder -of
the Asylum. He has devoted the best
years of his life to its interests, and has
already made it an honor to the State.
Now, when it is beginning to attain the
position he has marked out for it, he is
removed, without having the cause of
his removal assigned, and without be
ing allowed to appeal to any tribunal
for redress, but the public sentiment of
his native State. This will triumphant
ly vindicate him, and brand with de
seived obloquy, the intolerance and
bigotry exhibited in his removal.
The DUpatch and the Chattanooga
Hotels.
In returning from a visit to Lookout
Mountain, we stopped at Chattanooga,
and wrote to the Dispatch of the cold
weather on the mountain, and alluded to
the fact, that the excellent summer
house of Mitchell & Co., had no stoves
or fireplaces. The Atlanta Intelligencer
inadvertently mistook the allusion to
the mountain, and applied it to the ho
tels of Chattanooga. That paper has
since, in its issue of the 18th, made the
proper explanation. But our friends of
the Representative, taking the cue, as they
seem to do some of their political hob
bieß—second hand—reiterate the
oharge that “A. of the Augusta Dispatch."
says that the hotels of Chattanooga
have neither stoves or fireplaces, ” &c.
Setting aside their absurd intimation
that we were visting Chattanooga for
health, or for subscribers, (though we
did receive, through Maj. Parham and
others a right smart accession to our list
there! we cannot forbear to devote a
word of condolence to our friends over
the waste of amunition of which they
have been guilty. We shall not pre
sume to reply to all their witticisms, for
we really do not undestand them. The
editors will do us the justice to 6et
themselves right in their allusion to us,
as we have never been so hard run,even
in the dullest of places, for a paragraph,
asto resort to petty detraction ofhotels, j
with or without fireplaces.
We regret that we have been the
innocent occasion of putting our friends
to the trouble of counting the rooms
of the hotels of Chattanooga ; for they ;
assure us that the “Crutchfield” has 75
rooms, 08 of which have fireplaces.—
.Can the editors tell us the exact num
ber of bowls, pitchers, tables, etcetera, in
each !) We congratulate them, howev
■r, in finding such facilities near home,
for “ gratifying the tastes” of “old
maids ” and “dyspeptic quill-drivers.”
With their fire-eating proclivities they
will no doubt be able to stem even the
coldest winter without fireplaces, stoves
■r other “ignitables”—though it is
veil for persons evidently predisposed to
r region of hot temperature,to getaccus
:omed to the effects of coloric. Our
friends of the Representative need not lose
the investment in hot air pipes, which
they say are being provided for our ex
press comfort, should we sojourn there
igain—as they can be easily converted
into gas pipes for their own establish
ment.
So far as the whisky is concerned, we
have no doubt our Chattanooga friends
could spare a little without serious dis
advantage, though we are quite sure it
would be entirely at variance with their
custom, if not against their will, to use
it for any other than drinking pur
poses.
In conclusion, we return our grateful
acknowledgments to our friends of the:
Representative for their kind interest in “A j
■if the Dispatch. ” They remind us of the
impulsive juvenile, whoin tinkering with !
a shooting iron with which he was not
amiliar, let it go off half-cocked, and ]
mocked himself over. We trust noi
lamage has resulted to these redoutahle!
knights from thsi explosion of their)
blunderbus at our expense.
The Fall Courts.
The Superior Courts of the various
counties are now in progress from week
to week, and from what we have been
able to learn, the prospect is that there
will be a pretty strong delegation sent
to Millegeville.
i
In Gwinnet county, last week, three j:
persons were convicted as follows : John j
Roper, for negro stealing, Bix years in 1
the I’enitent'ary; Nelson Hobbs, for
stealing a bunch of factory thread, sent'
for two years ; W». Garner, for larce-1
ny from the person, sent for three j'
years.
At Morgan Superior Court, Geo. M. : .
Griffin, of Savannah, was convicted of!*
conspiracy to rob and burn the store of 1
C. W. Richter, and sentenced to the J
Penitentiary for one year This was ap
case of a novel and interesting charac- j
/.er. Mr. Griffin had occupied a high !
position in society, and had an interest
ing family. The case had been in pro-'
gress for two years, and strong hopes
were entertained by his friends that the
testimony of the principal witness would t
be impeached; but after the witness
had been examined for nearly a whole
day, we are informed that the friends of
Mr. Griffin considered the case hope
less, and he took the cars for home. He
was apprehended on the train by Messrs.
, Ballard and Peacock, the indefatiga
. ble Marshal and deputy sheriff, and
brought back on the next train,
t The plot was chiefly carried on by
i means of correspondence; the party
f whose testimony convicted him, receiv
- Ing the letters and answering them
- through a committee. The witness was
f to break open and rob the store by
t means of a false key sent by theprison
serin a box of fruit—set fire to it, and
!. m eet Griffin at Millen and divide the
e spoils. The correspondence occupied a
s Dumber of weeks, and resulted in hi*
if indictment, and after considerable delay
i- i n his trial and conviction as above.

The Fever In Mobile.
A dispatch received by a gentleman
1 in Montgomery, says the Confederation,
5 from a reliable source in Mobile, dated
' “Mobile, Sept. 16,” says, “The yellow
6 fever here is an epidemic.”
r The Mobile Board of Health report

hours ending at 6 o’clock Tuesday eve

a The Weather nml Crops.
: The memory of the oldest inhabitant
n is taxed in vain to find a parallel in past
r years for such weather as this section of
1 Florida has experienced within the last
e three weeks. There has been a constant
I! succession of heavy rains, producing of
t! course disastrous consequences to the
cotton crops. From Monday night last
1 up to Wednesday evening it rained, al
r most incessantly: while during the fore
v noon of Wednesday there was a ‘ ‘ right
smart sprinkling” of a gale. Though
the wind did not quite reach the high
r point of former years, the blow was suf
-5 ficiently severe, ip the present saturated
t condition of the earth, to prostrate cot
ton stalks, and we have no doubt that
1 the damage done in that respect was
i great. On the whole the, prospect for
Planters looks gloomy enough. Com
plaints of rust and rot are general. The
j weather has changed for the better. On j
Thursday, the sun shone as bright as
on a morning in May, gladdening every
heart with the highest hopes. How
long this change will last or what effect
iit may have in rescuing the crops re
; mains to be seen.
,! From the direction of the wind on
Wednesday—N. and N. E.—we appre
' hend that a severe gale has been experi
enced on the Atlantic.— Tallahassee Flori

1 Deaf Mute Asylum—Public Meeting
. nt Cave Spring, Oa,
Cave Spring, Ga., Sept. 4,18 o».
In pursurance of a previous call, a
large portion of the citizens of Cave
I Spring, assembled on the evening of
the 2nd inst., when the object of the
meeting having been briefly explained,
r the following preamble aDd resolutions
were submitted aud unanimously adopt
ed :
Whereas, we, the citizens of Cave
Spring, are informed that Mr. O. P. Fan
nin, Principal of the Deaf Mute Asy
lum, a State Institution located at this
place, has been officially notified of the
intention of the present Board of Com
missioners, not to retain him in office
1 for the balance of the present year, nor
, to reappoint him for the ensuing year ;
I and whereas, we, as a community, are
much interested in the perpetuity and
prosperity of the above named Institu
tion, which we have always regarded as
■ one of the most laudable enterprises of
' the State of Georgia, and which,, situ
ated as it is, in one of the most eligi
ble locations in the State for patronage,
economy, health and morality, we be
lieve ought to commend itself to the
public and annually receive and exten
g 1 sive patronage, reflecting credit on the
■ State and diffusing many blessings of a
e moral, intellectual, and practical char
acter through society : and whereas,
much treasure has been expended by
; the State in establishing and improving
J this Institution, through which much
' good has already been done to an other
s wise neglected and foisakeu class of
- society whose condition, helpless and
'; dependent as it is, loudly claims the at-
tention, sympathy and help of the ben-
I I evolent and Christian part of society ;
P and, whereas, the present condition of
! this Institution is not and has not been
-for some time past as prosperous as we
could wish, by reason of the unsettled
; state in which it has been kept by those
■ whom we have the strongest reason to
1 : believe have sought and obtained the
1 management of its prudential affairs
' | from motives of a party, sectarian and
' jselfish character, instead of those '
j large, liberal and benevolent principles 1
j and motives which alone are compat- ,
ilde with tile true and ultimate success I
jof such an Institution ; and, whereas,
we have always hailed with pleasure,
up to this time, the triumphs of thisEn- .
terprise, and the congratulations of
praise and encomium bestowed through
j public journals from many quarters in
| and out of the State, upon the Princi
pal of this Institution, as “a gentleman 1
of fine talents, of great benevolence of
character, eminently pious, of singular
ability,” praises justly won and still to
he repeated without any adulation on
our part; and, whereas, we the citizens
,of Cave Spring, from our proximity to
; and interest in the Institution, are pre- '
; sumed to know its true interests, and
| being familiar with its growth and pro
gress, have never had the slightest rea
son to believe any disadvantages to re
sult to the Institution from Mr. Fan
nin’s connection with it, but on the
contrary, have always attributed its f
prosperity largely to his long continued
self-sacrificing devotion to it ; and
whereas, any substitute, will, in all
probability, be an importation from a
; quarter in principle and practice hostile 5
to our peculiar Institution : Therefore, I
Resolved. That we disapprobate and (
hold in utter contempt that mean, sor
did selfish spirit of party and sectarian j
despotism which ignores the merits and '
| capacity of the Principal of the Deaf ’
! ancl Dumb Asylum ; a spirit which in J
itself is deaf, and dumb, and blind to
the virtue it assails,and cannot advance "
1 the interests of those entrusted to its .
guardianship.
j Resolved, That we hartily approbate j
the conduct and course of the Princi
pal of the Asylum, as well qualified for (
the position he has, from a sense of du
jty to the poor Deaf Mute, so long, so
ably and conscientiously filled.
Resolved, That we cordially sympathise
with the Deaf Mutes of the Asylum,and
regret the unhappy circumstances, which j
1 according to their own confession, have t
j had no occasion in the relation of Mr. 1
Fannin to the Institution ; and which
thieaten seriously to derange, if not to
ruin their best and highest hopes and
j pleasures.
Resolved, That from all the facts lie- 1
j fore us, and especially the character of
| the certificate of Mr. Fannin's rejection, j
which we deem highly insolent and dis-
I courteous, we regard his removal as un- '
just and ungenerous, and thtf circum
stances, and summary manner of the
j same, without sufficient premonition,as
j highly injurious and incompatible with \
! the general tenor of his own courteous
conduct to others. I
Resolved. That we should regard Mr. 1
Fannin's disconnection with the lusti j
tion as a great,if not incurable evil to its t
prosperity and perpetuity, an evil not to t
be tolerated for faults on his part of ’
minor importance ; and that if pos- ,
sible, and if consistent with his high t
sense of honor and integrity, we spare »
no pains to maintain his position.
Resolved, That with a certificate of all
the grievances in the case, Mr. Fannin
memorialize the next legislature upon
the subject, and that all the patrons of
the Institution he likewise informed of
- facts in the case. (

ty. >

isTThe Great Problem
Sol vert I—DR. 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
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
l fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
I 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,
i The nervous suflferer, 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 down 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 nnaturalcondition
’ of the wouderful machinery which connects ev
' erv member with the source of sensation, mo
' t ion and thought—derives immediate benefit
! from the useof this Cordial, which at once calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
• organization.
s : Females who have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
s woman has ever received from the luu'da of
r 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
1 which is to be subjected to their action. As an
3 appetiser it has no equal in the Pbarmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en-
Y joyraent are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
i, precious worth
j. Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
! sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
s i wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
-0 sion, the individual suffering from general de
v bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willall find immediateand permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
0 those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
y will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
against that terrible milady. There are many
| perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
-1 i tion that they think themselves beyond thcreach
J of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
. Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
g lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
. the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

; —Honesdale Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr.
Seth W Fowle— Sir : You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the benefit ol the as- J
dieted :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint, !
which apparently brought me to the brink ot
the grave. During ray sickness Twas 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
persuaded to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild
j 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. Betsey Perrj.v.
The above certificate was given in thepre
) senee of Dr. A. Strong, ol Honesdale, who is well
known in his vicinity as a successful practitiouer.

£<fj" (Jure tlie Liver.—There is
an article selling throughout the country that
{ has attained the widest celebrity ever known as
I a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
unce to DR. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, OR
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al
i most too great to believe, were it not for the un
i doubted evidence that accompany the testimo
• idals. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
; for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility
; that so often baffles the skill of our most eminent
' physicians.
Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of the
i eminent physicians of New York, and it is said, j
j of his cases were treated with the Invigo
! rator with such invariable success that he has
i been induced to offer it as a family medicine, and
! Jot the world have the benefit of his discovery.
| If those who are troubled with debility, head

a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
