Thur.iUy Evening. s « l"- i3 ' l * sS '
~~|jg” The article we published on the
third page of yesterday’s paper, headed
"The Gly,” should have been c
to the Savannah Republican. "
the correction as some of our di-ton
readers may have thought it alluded to
Augusta.
Minding onr Own Business.
In social matters there is no character
more odious than the meddler ; and of
all the objects of general contempt and
universal obloquy, the impertinent go
between is the most conspicuous.
This does not seem to be true in poli
tics ; for we find the political papers of
our State so busy over the campaign in
Illinois, that they seem to have forgot
ten that the little State of Georgia has
any interests at all to look after. Doug
las and 11f.sf.se and Lincoln have been
the burden of their song for weeks, and
for the life of us we can’t tell the dif
ference between these rival candidates,
so far as any favors we as Georgians and
Southrons are to expect of them. The
triumph of either of them will but add
to the counsils of the nation, one from
whom the South can expect no disinter
ested service. Why, then, should we
run wild over the campaign in that be
nighted freesoil commonwealth? Is it
because of the effect it may have upon
the prospects of some aspirant for the
Presidency ? We have enough of these
latter here at home to engage our earn
est solicitude for at least a quarter of a
century; but we have no idea of aiding
or abetting or sympathizing in the elec
tion of traitors and renegades to Con
gress, even if it could enable every as
pirant in the State to cross his legs in
the Presidential chair. We have legis
lation at home that deserves the atten
tion of somebody, but unless we can
find some neighbering province.as hber
al to us, as we are to Illinois, whcifwill
take our interests in charge, there is
great danger that they will suf
fer, and that the next Legislature will
prove as much of an abortion as the j
last. . *»
Important measures of State policy ,
claim wise and prudent deliberation as
the hands of our next General Assem- j
bly. The subject of Free Schools- the
Railroad Projects—the Penitentiary—
the State University—the Usury Laws
the Supreme Court —the State Road, all |
demand a thorough investigation and
some definite action. And the Banks
too, must be honored with some further
evidence of Legislative and Executive
accumen. All these, and many other
subjects of vastly more importance than
the choice between two unreliable free
soilers, claim the attention of the press
and the people of Georgia, Better to
fill u-> the papers with anecdotes to j
please the juveniles, or advertisements j
of patent nostrums, than to bore the I
people with these tedious doses of free
soil politics.

U. £. District Court. i
In this Court the cause of A Bangs St
Co , vs. the Blue U. R. 11 Company is 1
“dragging its slow length along.” In j
this cause millions are at stake, hence
the array of legal talent before the
Court. Yesterday, Mr. Hull of Athens,
concluded a very able argument on the
behalf of the Complainants, and to day.
Mr. Memminger, for Defendants, is
pressing astrong, zealous, and lucid ar
gument for the defence. His friends
in South Carolina may feel assurred that
he is well sustaining his laurels. Mr. j
Petigru, we understand, will follow on !
the side of the Defendants, when Mr.
Toombs will conclude After which
the case will be left to’ the able review
of the patient and acute Chancellor-
Judge Nicholl. — Marietta Patriot, ‘2,lst.
In addition to the above, we learn
that Mr. Toombs, yesterday, concluded
his argument in the above case. The
Court House, we understand was crowd. 1
ed, aud among the throng were many’
ladies.

Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.
I Lawrence, Mass., Sept. 14tli. 1808.
Mr Editor —The large machine shop,
i of which I spoke in my last letter, and
which has been in opperatlon longer
than any other manufacturing establish
ment in this city, has stopped work.—
The hands, some three or four hundred
w!ien in full work, have been discharg
ed, and the company are closing up
their affairs, preparatory to a final dis
solution. I believe the Stockholders
have never received a dividend since
their organization.
The “ Pemberton Mills, a large con
, oern for the manufacturing of cloth,
have also been obliged to suspend, and the
whole concern has been sold at auction.
It was purchased by a Bostonian and is
- now partially at work, and will soon be
f in full operation. Here we sec, three
r of the largest corporations in this city,
- —and there is no place in America,
3 where, as a whole, the factories are as
‘ large as they are here, —have lost mon
-1 ey, or in other words havejfailed.
1 There are two othercorporations here,
whose mills are larger than those I have
j spoken of, and probably the largest in
. New England, which as yet are in full
I blast; but they are the youngest in the
i place, and are managed by hired men, as
■ were the others, and unless the times
: improve, what guarantee is there of
their stability, and success ?
The profits of manufacturing are not
as large, even in good times, as former
ly, and consequently there is not so
large a margin out of which the mana
gers can speculate and steal.
In past years many of the large
corporations have made large dividends,
notwithstanding the reckless and ex
. travagant management, of which it is
i notorious, nearly all large companies
are and have been the victims. At the
• j present time,l very much doubt if there
1 is legal interest made on the invest
ment of our large factory companies.—
The responsibility of managers and
overseers is too far off to induce econo
my. Each one lays the blame on oth
ers, while they all have no individual
interest in the success of the whole cou
! cern. A little time lost, or an extrava-|
I gant outlay for stock, or a poor sale of
| goods, takes nothing from their pocket,
’ and accordingly, a business which in
I the hands of a few interested individ-’
uals would pay large dividends, will, in
| the management of a large company
lose money. The natural inference’
! is, that our large factory corporations, j
will eventually, and ere long too, j
pass into the hands of individuals — j
when this change is accomplished, we
may look for successful business in our j
; manufactories, and not till then.
The design of the “Pacific ” corpora
j tion in this place, is on a gigantic scale, j
If an abundance of money, and certainj
! success had been guaranteed to them, it
would have required a high degree of
skill and ingenuity to plan a more per-.
feet and splendid establishment. Thej
j flooring of the mills covers a space of j
i sixteen acres. The architectural design is'
I unsurpassed by any buildings of the |
! kind in the world —in size,l believe they j
: are not equalled. There is a large and
j elegant room fitted up expressly for a |
reading room, in which is kept all the
| principal publications of the day, from i
the penny daily, up to the largest Quar-;
terlies. To this room all the operatives
of the corporation have free access.—!’
The boarding houses are all constructed
on the same extensive plan. They are i
spacious, comfortable and handsome. 1
Indeed the building of all the corpo- 1 j
rations in this city are unusually!’
good ; better than in any other place Ij 1
have overseen. Immense sums of rnon-j ,
ey have been expended to adorn and j i
beautify, while the comfort of the op- I
peratives has not been neglected. Eve- [
ry facility is here afforded to the labor- (
er by which his moral, physical, aud in
tellectual opportunities shall not be *
abridged, but extended. Good habits ]
are insisted upon, immoralities if known
are not tolerated, though I am sorry to 1
say that the respectability of our facto .
ry population is waning ; it is not as re- 1
spectable an employment in public esti- 1
mation as formerly, and it is growing
worse daily. Foreigners are usurping
the place of natives, because they can
be oppressed more—they are less inde- '
pendent, and less exactive in their
claims. Formerly, the Yankee Girl '
could insist upon good treatment, and
the employer was forced to give it, for
“ Help ” was scarce. Now, it is plenty
—two stand ready, where but one is
wanted. If any class of our people have
an excuse for favoring Knownothingism,
it is our factory girls, for foreigners are
fast closing up every vacancy within
their reach.

Nashville, Sept. 21, 1858.
In looking over your paper, which
comes regularly to the “St. Cloud,'
where it is my good fortune to vegetate,
lam pleased to observe that you enjoy
perfect exemption from the fatal epi
' demic which is scourging the seaboard
) cities. The delay and confusion at the
- infected ports will constitute a brief
s barrier to business, and you need not
e be serprised to find country orders come
in late. Let not your business men be
discouraged—a fine winter business is in |
store for them. The residents of inte
rior towns, where Yellow Jack never
e penetrates, are frightened at less than
bis shadow, and will wait to be sure
• s that he does not pay you a visit, before!
o they drop in upon you ; but there is a
e demand for goods, and money in the j
, country to pay for them, and your city
will get a full share of it.
s Nashville—the “City of Rocks”—is a
lively place. The merchants complain j
that business is dull and late, but did
you ever know them to acknowledge
’ that it was brisk and eai ly? The Bacon
B i market exhibits a slight decline duiing,
1 the week, and the ruling rates for clear
1 Bides ar 8a 8 1-8. Hams are in demand j
2 1 at 9 1-2 a 10, aud shoulders at 7 a 7 1-4
s'cents. Lard sells readily at 9 a 9 1-2
5 cents.
f ; The death of Mr. R. O’Kane, who
was killed last week on the Nashville
. & Chattanooga road, created a sensation
of gloom among his wide circle of ac
quaintances. He was a merchant, and
) much respected. He went to step on
the train while it was in motion, at
Normandy station, and missing the
* platform, was clinging with one hand '
, and endeavoring to get in, when the,
■ car approached a wood rack and he was
j thrown under the wheels and so injured
, that he died in a few hours. What is
, quite singular, though one side was hor- j
ribly contused, and both legs and his;
left arm broken, he retained his reason
to the last, and wrote out a clear and
explicit statement of his business affairs.
1 John Drew, the popular comedian, is
delighting the Nashvillians with his
1 versatile personations at the Gaiety,
aud the season promises to he a popular
one.
The fall races over the Nashville
course will commance on Monday 27tli,
j and continue through the week. Os
coarse a large delegation of knights of
the Turf, and their cousins, the black
i legs, will be in town. For my part, I
never could see the difference between
■ betting “ my money on the bobtail nag"
' and staking it at a faro or roulette
table. And yet the first men in the
country countenance and participate in
| the sports of the race track. I regard
,| the latter the most pernicious, because
they beguile the young and excitable
and familiarize them with the low char
acters that throng such places, when
j they would shudder to approach their
| dens.
But 1 merely started to drop you a
[ line, to inform you of my desire to be
come a regular correspondent here. I
j shall construe the publication of this
into a desire on your part to hear regu
larly from CUMBERLAND.

laborers were drowned ; George Thomp
son, the engineer, and two firemen I
badly injured, aud two or’ three J
passengers slightly hurt. The bridge '
is supposed to have been fired by an in- .

Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL. —The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
MG-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and thecrude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufl'erer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed snd 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 down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arisingfrom the unnaloralcondttion
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
| lion and thoughh-derives Immediate benefit

| nr have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hai ds of
medical men. .. .
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir lias a direct, im
; mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite
While it renews the strength 61 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.
’ if long lile and the vigor necessary to its en
joy ment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
1 precious worth _
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the a.ling
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres- ,
1 sion, the individual suffering from general do
1 bility or from the weakness of a single organ
I will all find immediateaud permanent relief from
I the use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
| will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard
I against that terrible malady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
i 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
i lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
j the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution ~.

—Hoxesdai.b Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr.
Seth W I-'owi.k—Sir : You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the benefit ol the as
flictcd :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink oi .
the grave. During my sickness T was attended
by three physicians in our place, hut 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, 1 was
persuaded to try Wistar's lialsam 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. Betsey Pkrhi.v.

sence of D.-. A. Strong, ol llonesdnle, who is well 1

IfTCuretlie Liver.—There is
an article selling throughout the country that
has attained the widest celebrity ever known as
a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
ence to'DR. SANFORD'S JNVIGORATOR, OR
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al
most too great to believe, were it not for the un
• doubted evidence that accompauy the testHno
) nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known
l for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility
I that so often bailies the skill of our most emiu nt.
! physicians.
j. I)r. Sanford has been for a long time one of the
I eminent physicians of New York, and it is said,
J most of his cases were treated with the Invigo
rator with such invariable success tbat he has
been induced to offer it as a family medicine, and
let the world have the benefit of his discovery.
| If those who are troubled with debility, head
ache, languor, or slow, lingering lever, wi*l try
a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.-
