(feting Sisptt|J AUGUSTA.GA: 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. ♦ Healtli of Cities. The Board of Health of New York report 518 deaths in that city during , the week ending on the 18th inst.—a , decrease of 70 as compared with the ■ previous week. One fatal case of yel-1 ; low fever is reported. The deceased J, was attacked in Charleston, recovered, j ] went to New York by railroad, took a J ] relapse and died in that city on the. i Bth inst. Os the deaths, 85 were men, i 78 women, 169 boys and 186 girls—s 6 ( by consumption, convulsions 42, cholera ' infantum 65, Marasmus (infantile) 56. , r In Brooklyn, there were 185 deaths, . of which three were by yellow fever. In Philadelphia there were 148 deaths for the week, 28 by consumption. (*?■• The Board of Health of Savan nah report forty deaths in that city du ring the week ending 21st inst.—37 whites and 3 blacks- 18 by Yellow Fe- 1 ver, and 6by Bilious Fever. Ihe Board of Health will hereafter meet daily ' On the 22d, the Board report six inter- < ments, none by Yellow Fever. * — £ |jjf Cotton was quoted at Carters ville, £ on the 22d inst., at 8 to 10 3-4 ; Corn e 45 ; Corn Meal 45 ; Extra Family Flour , 2.50 per pack ; Superfine Flour *2.25 s per sack ; Bacon Sides 11 to 12 ; Hams ( 11 to 12 1-2; Shoulders 10 ; Chickens 12 12; Eggs 10 ; Butter 15 cents. t«r Green Martin, who was indicted j 1 for whipping a negro boy, and convicted j of murder at the last term of Wash- c ington county Superior Court, but got c a new trial at the Supreme Court, was t tried last week and acquitted. ‘ 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. fgTThe wither stiil is pleasant—city j healthy. 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. The population of Lawrence is about 15,000 It is twenty-five miles from Boston, and eight from Lowell, below, one the same river. A. [ Henry Fraes, of N. York, died at ! Mount Pleasant, a few days ago, from : nervousness and fearful apprehensions of the yellow fever. “Sunnydale” is the name of a new Postoffice established in Pickens District. Mr. Jos. U. Cook is the Postmaster. A new office lias also been establish ed in Pickens District, named Fiat ! Shoal and (Japt. L. N.

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. lSy the Malls. Syracuse, Sept. 18.—Charles Sedg j wick, Esq., of this city, was nominated | this afternoon, as the Republican candi date for Congress lor the Twenty-fourth district, in place of Hon. A. I’.

Buffalo, Sept. 18.—The Republicans . of the Thirtieth Congressional District, comprising Genessee, Wyoming and A1 leghany counties, in convention yester- ' day at Warsaw, nominated Mr. Aligns- a tus Frank, of Wyoming county, as their candidate for Congress. r St I .oris Sept. 18.—Leavenworth ad vices of the 15th inst , are received. A a number of officers from Utah arrived there on that day, among them Col. Alexander and Lieutenants Grover an! Manadier, of the Tenth infamry, and t Capt. Marcy, of the Fifth infantry.— t The general impression was that further trouble was to he expected Irom the ‘ Mormous ; that the difficulties had on- s ly been postponed, not settled. A train of twenty wagons leaves here to-morrow for Pike's Park, and Wm H. Russell will start a train of forty wa- ( gous in a few days Gentlemen arealso here from Leavenworth and Wyandotte 1 outfitting for the companies in those i places. f St. Louis, Sept. 18 —A train on the , Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad met with a serious accident at Platte River 1 bridge, ten miles east of St. Joseph, on ' the morning of the 13th, by which two 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- . ceudiary, and was so touch burned be- ' low that when the locomotive reached ‘ it the entire structure feli, precipi'ating i the whole train into the river. ; Sandusky, Ohio, Sept. 17.—0 n this, the fourth and lust day of the State fair, tiie weather was magnificent and the attendance very large. AI together., the fair lias been the most successful ever held in the West, and the display! of stock of all classes was better than was ever before exhibited. j There were fifteen lady competitors for the ten prizes given for eques-’ trianism. The first, a saddle anil bri- 1 die valued at $75, was awarded to Miss Kirby, of Videville, Lorain county ; i the second, a gold watch and chain, with a charm ot the Atlantic cable at-j tached, to Miss Wightsham ; and the third, a silver cup, to Miss Rennet, of Woodstock, Champaign county. Not, an accident has occurred, aud all the proceedings have been of the most sat ( ■ isfactory description. The storm of Wednesday was quite severe along the Connecticut coast, and the loss of considerable property is 1 chronicled. At Bridgeport, a large 1 three story brick building was complete-’ ly demolished. I THE LATEST NEWS.

The London Times says that the condi tion of t the Atlantic Cable is unchange Signals continue to be received, butj they are too feint to be intelligible. It< siys the experiments indicate that the j defect is probably within three miles of land. The Liverpool Post says that the de feet is two hundred and forty miles from shore. The doubts will probably be removed in a short time. Morphy was defeated in I‘aris by Har rowitz, in a chess playing contest.

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 ! from the use of this Cordial, which atoncecalms, . i invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous | 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.

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.

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.- f*Y Aii gustu & Savannah !
