(Itaing JHsptcjj. augusta' ga : Tuesday Esenlli|f, Sept. 81, IM*. Neutrality or tlic Ocean Telegraph. ( The Charleston News says The Eng- < lish papers were startled at the sugges- , tion of the President in ids reply to the ( message of Queen Victoria, that the , telegraph should be employed for no , exclusively national purpose, hut for , the advantage of all nations. The , French press manifested a more liberal , spirit. The Paris Patrie put this qucs- | tion the day after the intelligence came , from England; "Would an English , squadron respect the wires between , France and Algeria or a French squad- j ron those between England and Canada.' 4 Would not a new conquest be achieved j for the cause of peace, were the neu- , trality of telegraphic communications j to be proclaimed ? Would not the fra- j ternal union of all Christian nations he , advanced?” Galignani’s Messenger pro- , nounced these ideas of La Patrie to be i worthy of deep attention, and likely to I obtain favor with statesmen of all coun- , tries. Death or Professor Young.—lra Young, Professor of Mathematics, Natu ral Philosophy and Astronomy, in Dar- . mouth College, died on the 13th inst., after an operation for a disease which had baffled the skill of the most emi nent physicians. Prof. Y’oung was a graduate of Dart mouth, of the class of 1828, and was ' about 56 years of age. Three years ago Professor Young visi- . ted England, Germany and France up- . on business connected with his depart- ment, and was received with honor by the faculties of other colleges and uni- ' < verities in those countries. * Novel Terms. The editor .of the Wilkes Republican, alluding to some changes in the manage ment of that paper, says: "No paper will be sent from the office unless the cash accompanies it.” We would like to know how much cash he proposes to send with each pa per, as if it is any liberal amount, we can get him up a large club in this city. Health of Charleston* In the hurry of getting in yesterday's edition the telegraphic report of the Mortality in Charleston, a figure (1) was omitted—it should have read one hun dred and twenty eight by Yellow Fever, instead of twenty-eight. The Board of Health, in the in official report, state that there were 171 deaths in that city during the week ending 18th inst—lso whites, and 21 blacks —122 whites and 6 blacks by Yellow Fever. Os the to tal deaths 48 werechildren. Health of Savannah. We are pleased to be able to commu nicate to our readers this morning the j following very gratifying dispatch from tiie Chairman of the Board of Health in Savannah to the acting Mayor of this ; city : “Savannah, Sept. 20.—P. M. i To Foster Blodgkt, Jr., Mayor pro. tern. : Dear Sir: I have heard of no new deaths | nor any new eases of yellow fever to- j day. The sickness has greatly abated. No apprehension now exists of any epi- j demic in this city. The weather is very j favorable. ffu. T. Thompson, Chairman Board of Health. | ——— Infallible Core for Hog Cholera. — One of the most intelligent and re liable farmers in this country, says the Holy Springs (Miss.) Democrat, tells us of a remedy for hog cholera, which he says we may give to our readers as in fallible. This remedy is simply arse nic, in the proportion of a common tea spoonful to twenty hogs, mixed with a little dough and given to them. He says that after trying every remedy of which he could hear, aud losing 200 hogs, he happened to think of this, and tried it with complete success, never losing another hog after commencing to use it; although he had a good many very bad off when he began to use it.— It is easily tried, and we recommend it to our readers, ..*. er In a speech delivered at New Al bany, Ind., the Hon. W*. H. English, author of the Kansas bill, repudiates one of its provisions, by declaring that he will vote for ilie admission of Kan sas whenever she presents herself with j a constitution legally formed and ap proved by the people of tire Territory. J So we go. w The Knoxville Citizen says the charges on a bushel of wheat from that place to Savannah 500 miles, are one cent less than from Knoxville to Lynch burg only 334 miles. r Miss Mary E. Keen has retired j from the editorial department of the Bairbridge Argus Miss Annie R. Blount, the well known “ Jennie Woodbine,” will continue the presiding divinity ov er the “ Lakies’ Bureau” of that pa per. • Death of a Musician.—We notice 1 the death in Charleston on the 10 inst., of Henry Wellington Greatorex, an em inent composer and basso, and organist of the Catholic Cathedral. He died of el low fever. [Correspondence of the Dispatch.] ( Lawrence, Mass., Sept 11,1858. ( Mr. Editor Most of your readers i probably understand that the city from , which I write, is one of the large manu- • facturing towns which are scattered I over New England. Lawrence, or “New , City,” as it is sometimes called, is one i of the larger class which has been built ; up within a few years, and is almost ex- . clusively a “factory town." The man ufacturing interests built the city, and i without the mills, the inhabitants could not subsist for six months. Like all other towns and cities of this kind, with which I am acquainted, it is in tensely poor. The population is depen dent on the factories for their daily food—when business flourishes and sick ness keeps at a distance they flourish that is, they earn enough for a comfort able subsistence, and are able to indulge in some luxuries. Most of them are im provident, spending their earnings as j fast as received ; economy, for the pur pose of independence, is not a leading trait in their character—to-day is well j enjoyed, and to-morrow, when hard j times shuts up the factory, or disease enters their dwellings, their purse is empty, and poverty and deprivation is the consequence. A 6tranger, in walk ing the streets of Lawrence at this time, would meet, on every hand, evidence of want. There is nothing like thrift to be observed —poverty “sticks out” at every door, and “hard times,” and j “ nothing to do,” is heard on every side. The company that first commenced ! operations at this place, was organized j when manufacturing was good ; they were wealthy, and laid their plans to build up the largest manufacturing city in New England. This Company was called “The Essex Land and Water Com- j pany.” They built the dam and canal on an extensive scale, and held out in- j ducements, which they supposed, would concentrate around them the largest manufacturing interest in the whole country. For a time they flourished well; and within five years from the , time the first blow was struck, a large town sprung up and hid fair to eclipse all competitors. A machine shop, among the largest, if not the largest in the land, was put in operation, which was to build the looms andspinning | 1 jennies for another Manchester or Bir mingham. The * ‘Bay State Mills’ j of the $87,000 notoriety—was the first j factory erected for the manufacture of cloths. This concern commenced by making Bay State Shawls. The market was soon over stocked, and Bay State stock began to fall. One of the em i ployees of the concern, a fashionable • 1 man, mustered up courage enough to »I lead off in a new innovation on the ! fashions—he appeared in the streets 1 with a shawl over his shoulders, and j was the observed of all observers. He j was laughed at and ridiculed, and a set j of petticoats was sent him, which would ■ : have demolished and banished, at once, I any common man; but he was a shrewd man aud sensible to the last.— ’ He had, what most new fashions have : not, to support him—the shawl was a ; decided improvement as an outside gar- I ment—it was comfortable and conveni- j i ent, and though new fashions do not j I often originate for such reasons, yet a - reason, if it is accompanied with , | sufficient novelty, will have some | weight. The fashion took, and the Bay j | State Mills were again in a flourishing i condition. Experiments are dangerous .! —they had succeeded in one—they felt themselves rich and powerful, aud they . j hoped to succeed in others. Thechanches I were somewhat hazardous, but the ; ! object was worth a risk. Probably they -: were not alone in the game which was - !to be played, but they took the initia •. tive—they were leaders in an attempt r! to bribe Congres .to pass a tariff bill i j which would drive competition out of f: their way, aud leave a clear field for ) j their goods at such prices as they saw II fit to ask ; but they failed in their dl l' ject. Their agent, Walcot, did not suc- S | ceed as they expected; their money was r I gone and they were unable to pay divi dends to the stockholders, who began t; to murmur and inquire where the mo ! ney was. Committees were appointed j by Congress and by the Company to in vestigate the matter. Some transac ’ | tions were dragged to the light, which ’ I men, high in authority, meant to keep ' dark. The reputation of men, high in j office, was at stake, as well as the inter | ests of a great political party. The facts could not be reached, and a tre ; menderous effort was made to hush up jtlie matter, and with partial success. But the stockholders had an interest as well as the politician ; their money, which they bad accumulated by toil and labor, was not returned or accounted for, and their minds could not be satis fied that everything was as it should be. Though they were willing to buy i 1 the votes of Congressmen with their j money, yet they were not willing to let! the matter sleep until Walcot demon strated to their comprehension that be j had expended the cash as he was order- ■ jedtodo. He, Walcot, has accordingly | been sued for the whole amount placed !in his hands The political honesty j ’ and reputation of the men who compose: | our Congress and lead our political par ties, is of too much value to be sacrificed for $87,000. Men who have Bold their | votes for money, will refund it and double tiie amount rather than to be exposed. This money will have to he accounted for in some way—whether it will be refunded and thus stop the in vestigation, and leave the infamy of the transaction on Walcot’s shoulders, or whether he will come forward and exhibit the amouuts paid and to whom, and thus relieve himself of the infer ence that he is a swindler, remains to be seen. At any rate, the Ray State Company is broke beyond redemption— extravagance has ruined them. Their mill will stop next month, and their af fairs will be wound up and the property sold. It will he remembered that this concern shut down their gates last win ter —after some months it was thought best to work up the stock on hand— they are now nearly through and will close up in a few weeks. You will hear from me again from ! this place. N. Interesting from Utah. St. Louis, Sept. 16, 1856. i We have advices from Leavenworth | to the 13th inst., per express at Boone I ville of to-day. The Salt Lake mail ar j rived at St. Joseph on the 10th inst., having made the trip in twenty days. The Mormons continued to arrive in the city from the South, and were en tering upon their usual avocations.— Brigham Young still keeps himself con cealed, and lives in constant danger and fear of the vengeance of his own peo ple, who have become greatly incensed at the unveiling of his numerous frauds. This confirms the former reports. One company of troops had left Fort Bridger for Oregon, and others would leave soon. The Indians were all quiet, j Full reports confirm the news of the : South Platte gold mines. Several tra : ders and mountaineers were met, who I said that they had been at the mines, and had in their possession many specimens of gold found there. They say many miners, without tools and no other appliances except tin pans, were getting three to five dollars daily.— j Many traders and others were met en route to the gold regions, j Col. Beise’s batallion of Utah volun | teers, under Lieut. Hill, arrived at the I fort to-day, where they will be paid off j and mustered out of service. Colonel ] Cooke, Lieuts. Bufort and Pegram, of j the Second dragoons, Capts. Gore and Donevant, of the 'Tenth infantry, ar | rived from Utah. ! The Sixth infantry would leave Fort j Bridger about the 24th of August.— ! Col. Conby, with two companies of the Second dragoons, two companies of the I Tenth Infantry, and one company of the Seventh infantry, was daily expect ed at Fort Bridger to relieve the Sixth ■ regiment. The company of Engineers had left for Leavenworth, and Capts. Desas6ere*s and Stewart’s companies of cavalry : would leave in a few dayß. The Rice Crop. ! The following is an extract from a let ter received in Charleston dated Laurel Hill, Waccamaw Kiver, September 17, 1858: “We had a heavy blow in this vicini ty, on Wednesday night, 15th inst., i which has done some damage to the Rice crop in this section. “There was a singular occurrence here on Thursday, the 10th inst. At the Beach at 7 A. M., the tide began to | flood ; it ran up until 9 A. M.—rising | about two feet; it then ran out and j came in again, giving us high water at , the usual time, 3 1-2 P. M. The same occurred on the river, where the differ ence of time in the tide is two hours. At 9 A. M. it began to run up and con tinued until 11 A. M.—rising eighteen inches; it then ran out, and at IP. M. it flooded again, giving us high water |at the usual time. Can you explain this I (to me) singular occurrence?” .«. [Correspondence of the Sal'. Republican.] Darien, Sept. 16th, 1858. Mr. Editor: —Ten days ago it com ; menced blowing from the east with fre : quent heavy showers, which arrested ! cotton picking entirely. Yesterday at 2 o'clock tiie wind hauled round to south east and blew a hurricane until 8 in the evening. Trees which stood the gale of 1854, in my yard, are now all pros trated. I presume the Sea Island crop on tiie coast is almost entirely destroy j ed. . j William, the black sailor from New j York, was sold by our Sheriff on the | first Tuesday in this month for $503, for > a term of 65 years, and has been taken . home by his master. A woman was sold at the same time for SB9O. Yours, &e., Subscriber. f The Africans Transferred to the Niagara* : The United States steamship Niagara, r from New York, arrived off this Bar on Saturday last, and came to anchor in about eight fathoms of water, the up ' per part of her masts being barely visi -5 ble from the city wharves. The steam . er Gen. Clinch , which was chartered by the United States Marshal, left her 1 wharf on Sunday morning and proceed • ed to Fort Sumter, where she took the [ Africans on board and proceeded outside the Bar to the Niagara, which vessel she reached some time after mid-day. - The sea was quite rough, and there be ing some difficulty in getting the Afri cans off the steamer, the Clinch was at * tached to the stern of the frigate by i two hawsers, while a third rope was run . from tlie spanker-boom of the frigate to , the deck of the Clinch. On this last line a large tub was placed, and in it ' the negroes were transported from the » steamer to the ship. The Niagara will probably leave for Liberia to-day, (Mon day.)—Charleston Courier. ' ' ‘ A Stranger to the * ‘Two Travelers.” —The Fredericksburg (Va.) News tells a story of G. P. R. James going into a bank in “Union,” and drawing a check, which the teller declined cashing, be cause he didn’t know him. “Don't I | look like agentleman?” said Mr. James. ; “Oh yes,” said the teller, “but that is ! not enough.” “lam G. P. R. James, I the novelist.” “Never heard of you,” j replied the teller. The Hog Cholera has been prevailing in a few miles of Chattanooga to an alarming extent. One gentleman lost about 40 head of fine hogs.— Chattanooga j Gazette , 18/A. Mr. Bowyer, the iujured father, who was tried at Fincastle, Va., for the murder of McDowell, the alleged se ducer, has since been acquitted. Great applause from the audience followed the verdict of the magistrates. THE LATEST NEWS. BY TELEGRAPH S.i«p»nslon of Chubb Ilioth.r*!

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach has lost the power of duly converting lood into a life-sustaining element, Is relieved by a single course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric, lluld re acquires its solventpower, and tbecrude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, while his digestive organization was paralysed 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 teriible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arisingfrora the unnatural condition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion aud 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 m declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the hands of medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im- j mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite j 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 appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. 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 will all 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 ! tion that they think themselves beyond the reach tof 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 | Ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de si ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys ; pepsia, general prostration, irritabiliiy, nervous ! nes?,, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe : mules, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of j the heart, impotcncy, constipation, etc., from ! whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli j ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly infallible. !

During my sickness l was attended ! by three physicians in our place, but received no help. I also tried the various remedies re j commended for such complaints, but they as ! forded me no relief.

We have refer ence to DR. SANFORD'S IXYIGORATOR, OR ! LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al ! most too great to believe, were it not for the un ; doubted evidence that accompany the testimo nials. 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. Sunford has been for a longtime one of the : eminent physicians of New York, aud 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 let the world have the benefit of his discovery. ; j If those who are troubled with debility, head ! ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, wiM try a bottle, we think they might save physicians’ ; bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.— J HT Augusta & Savannah Railroad.— Augusta, Ga., March 11, 1858. ■ On and after Friday, the 12th instant, the rate of * j Freight on Cotton to Savannah will be 60 cents '' per bale, until further notice. mhl7 F.
