"AUGUSTA. GA:
Tuesday Evening, Sept IHSB.
Tl»e Greensboro’ tJnzftte.
Gen. Sullivan of the above paper
claims that we are under promise to re
ply to a recent article of his on the
Slave Trade. We admit that we did, in
gome sense, so promise, but upon read
ing his views, as expressed in his recent
condemnation of the project, we be
came fully satisfied in our own mind,
that he is beyond the reach of argu
ment. We must therefore respectfully
decline an enterprise so Quixotic as that
of “writing him down." °

Health of Charleston.
The Board of Health report 106 deaths
in that city during the week ending
25th inst.—whites 92, and blacks 14—
83 of the whites and 3 of the blacks by
Yellow Fever. A note appended to the
report of the Board, says :
“Five of the 86 deaths from Yellow
Fever should have appeared in lest
week’s report, but were brought in by
the policemen too late for insertion.
There have been 52 deaths less from
Yellow Fever this week than the week
before."
The City of Memphis and the Memphis
and Charleston Rail Road Company.
The Memphis Eagle & Enquirer says
We have heard a good deal of comment
about a contemplated sale by the city of
her stock in this Rail Road Company,
and have taken some pains to learn the
facts. Tho President very properly de
clines to purchase this stock for the Rail
Road Company; in fact, we learn that
he advises the city fathers to hold on
to it, but if they wish to sell, he and
other gentlemen associated with him,
will take the whole amount, SoOO,OCO,
at par, and relieve that amount of the
city’s outstanding bonds. With all due
deference to Mr. Tate's views about the
prospective value of rail road stock, we
think it for the interest of the city to
close this trade. It rids us at once of
an annual tax of thirty-thousand dol
lars, aud in consideration of the interest
already paid, we have a rail road con
necting ub with the whole Atlantic sea
board, and pouring into our lap an in
crease of trade, greater than the whole
commerce of Memphis before the road
was undertaken.
Col. Tucker Accepts.
Col. John A. Tucker, of Stewart coun
ty, Jwho was 'nominated a short time
since for Judge of Pataula Circuit, has
written a letter to the committee ap
pointed to inform him of his nomina
tion, in which he accepts the nomina
tion, and pledges himself, if elected, to
faithfully discharge tho duties which
the office will devolve upon him. A
better selection (says the Columbus Sun,)
could not have been made in the Circuit
than Col. Tucker, for added to talents
of the highest order, is unbending in
tegrity and a fearlessness in the dis- :
charge of any duties which may be in- i
curabent upon him. We wish him sue- ,
cess, whoever may be his oppouent.
In n Bad Scrape. (
Some of oar readers have often seen a dozen
or so martins attack a hawk or buzzard, on an
old pine tree, in a corn field. They will keep t
flying and pecking at the larger bird, until his j
head and back gets so sore that he takes to
flight, and on the return of the little martins,
heard their joyous chatterings. There are two 1
kinds of martins, both very useful In their place (
—the house martin and the Bee Martin, ana
from what we see in the papers, we should judge
that our batchelor friend of the Columbus En- I
quirer , belongs to the latter class, and has been \
making a rude attack on a gum of honey-bees, |
and they have turned on him in numbers, in
serting their little stings (without the fear of <
consequences) so often that he has hallowed \
once or twice, enough —but he might as well hal- _
low hurrah, for all the good hallowing will do,
or has done so far. The only advice we can give
him, to get out or his present scrape, is to get '
one of the prettiest, bravest, and most influen
tial of these little honey bees , and take it to his
bosom. If attacked after this, all he will have
to do, will be to pit her against the field, and if
he will lay low, there will be all sorts of an
amusing fight.
Road this little lecture with which he is favor'
ed by “ Mom* Myrtle.” It must have been a
hard pill to publish, but he had to cave— sarved
him right—when he common ed the war, he
should have thought of Sut’s daddy’y encounter
with the hornets, and he would have thought
twice before entering on so desperate an en
counter. He may have thought he had numer
ous friends of his order to back him, but we have
no doubt he has found out by this time that they
were willing to stand to bis back and see his fron*
well stung. But we appeal to the fair sex, the
honey bees, to forgive him, for we do not think
he will make another attack on their hives. He
has proved himself a bold and gallant warrior—
has acknowledged i.iinself vanquished—cried out
for quarters. If you cannot spare him a whole , '
we pray you forgive him this time. J
REJOINDER FROM MOLI.IE MYRTLE.
Mr. Editor , sir, by the light of a taper,
I’ve read a stray copy of your excellent paper. .
I am not a subscriber, you very well know,
But yet a good friend, and sincerely say so.
The copy was sent me by Mr. Sam T..
(A finer young man, sir, you never did see !)
I sometimes do borrow, I frankly confess,
And the borrowing system you cannot suppress,
However much you may try, you’ll never suc
ceed,
For most any ono borrows a paper to read.
I shall borrow another—none will refuse me,
And hope, my dear sir,you’ll kindly excuse me.
But this is digressing—if Ido not do better,
I never will get to the ond of this letter.
And so brief it shall be, ’twill the Editor please,
Who can u criticise tenderly more at his ease.
Just to think of that hint you gave *‘Lilly Neal!”
(You really don’t know, sir. how jealous I feel !
Something you’d tell her, “soft ” I presume,
Did she not write under a sweet von dzplume.
A m'santhropic old “ bach,” I once thought you
were,
Who’d scorn to be seen ga’lanting the fair—
I mean the “fair sex,” whom I fully believed
You disliked very much. Am I now undeceived
In supposing you have a soft spot in your heart,
Keeping warm lor somebody, to share it in part.
With that journal of literature, science and art ? j
In replying to “Lilly,” if i do uotforget,
“ A whole hive of honey-bees,” you said you’d i
upset;
Which proves you a bee martin, as clear, sir, as •
jet! j
To 14 buzz about ” martins, honey bees, sir, ne’er ■
ought, ’ * j
Unless, by a martin , they wish to be caught!
But, verily, I run on entirely too fast,
My taper grows dim. and ’tis midnight or past. '
And now, ere I doff my calico kirtle,” !
I bid you good night—your friend,
Sept. 23, ’SB. Mot.iie Myrtle,
Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.
Boston, Mass., Sept. 20, 1858.
Mk. Editor Many of your readers,
I presume, have never been in this city,
and though they may have been in
New York—a much larger city—and in
other of onr large cities, yet they can
not form a just idea of Boston, and if
they visit it, will be disappointed in its
appearance. It is not like other cities
in many respects. The moment you
step from the cars, or steam boat, you
feel that you are in a more civilized
community, among a better regulated
people, than you have left in most of
our large seaport cities. The hackmen
are respectful, and though numerous,
there is no noise or confusion —you are
in no danger of being carried off by
main force, one.way, while your bag
gage goes another —no trunk is ever
i touched until pointed out by the owner.
When you arrive at your stopping place
there is no attempt .to fleece you of
double or thribble fare—there is one
price, which is established by the city,
and it is very seldom abused. These
regulations are of no little consequence
to the traveler, as all will readily ac
knowledge, who have been brow beat
en, iusulted and nearly kidnapped by
the hackmen of Sew York, Baltimore
and other cities. Even your neighbor
i ing city of Charleston, unless it has im
proved of late, is far behind Boston in
this respect. Augusta aud Boston, are
! the two best regulated cities, so far as
the comfort, safety and convenience of
the traveler is concerned, with which I
am acquainted.
If an ingenius man was to set his wits
at work to lay out a city in the most
irregular way that the abuse of geome
try would allow, he would still fail to
equal the streets of this city. I have
no idea, that it has or even will have an
equal in this respect. Such terms as
squares and right angles, have no ap
plication here —crooked, winding, nar
row and uneven are the only terms
which can be understood when applied
to the streets of thiscity. Butafterall,
I rather like this feature of Boston ;
it is often convenient, aud saves going
around squares and corners, and it ef
fectually does away with the sameness
‘ which in many cities is fatigueing to the
1 eye and mind. The narrowness of
many of the streets is provoking to
the masculine pedestrian in these lat
. ter days, for a single crinoline will
• drive him over the curb stone. There
i is an air of stability about this city,
which is not often found. I can scarce
ly tell why, but the stores and private
residences of this place seem to indicate
that the inmates are old settlers —that
they have lived and made their money
here, and that they expect to die here
There is an air of comfort, and a tone
of contentment, which seems to say
this is my home. Other cities have as
fine buildings and probably more showy
ones, but their appearance does not in
dicate the thoroughness which is mani
fested here.
There is less confusion, less noise and
commotion, which may possibly arise
because the business is not so heavy, or
the trade so brisk, hut I hardly think
this the true reason. It appears more
like the result of well regulated facili
ties—well arranged means, and the
ease acquired by a long experience.—
Some writers, who profess to he well
acquainted with the subject, assert that
the trade of Boston is not what it ought
to he, or what it would have been, if
different men had ruled in the State
and city—that fanaticism has driven
away men who otherwise would have
replenished their stocks in this city.—
This may be so, but if it is, it is not
the work of the substautial men of the
city. They have, in the first place too
much sense to believe in the extrava- j
gancies of such notions, and their
shrewdness and prudence would deter
them from endangering their business
in such away, even if they did believe
it. But they, like the better part of
other communities, may have held
back, while the windy and fanatical
have given tone to sentiments which
the bone and sinew of Boston did not
approve, and which may have given
their city a had reputation. This is
frequently the case ; the really substan
tial men of towns and cities, and even
of States, allow their business to absorb
so much of their time, that they have
not the leisure to attend to politics, and
the consequence is, that minorities of'
ten rule, and bad men make laws for
the good.
Bostonjis waking up to this fact, and
the follies and evils which have result
ed from the insane acts of bigots and
shallow minded politicians are giving
place to the sensible views of sensible
men.
The population of Boston is about
170,000; but this is in reality only
about half of the real population.—
Boston proper is an Island, or nearly so,
and for some years the land has been
all taken up for building purposes—its
limits are gradually enlarging by fill
ing up the rivers and bays. The busi
ness is done in Boston, while the people
| live in the suburbs—Roxbury, Cam
bridge, Charlestown, East and South
i Boston, and indeed for an entire circuit
■ around the city, the country is densely
| populated. Boston, in reality contains
: not less than 300,000 inhabitants and is
rapidly increasing, and at no very dis-
I font day all the adjoining towns and
| cities will be united under one govern
ment, when she will take rank as one
! of the first cities in the Union. N.

I Sales of Cotton for Three Days 45J.000

f an Advancing Tendency.
, -•••-
. New York, Sept. 27. —The Liverpool,
J New York and Philadelphia Steamship
r Company's steamship City of Washing
ton, Capt. Robert Leitch, has* arrived,
with Liverpool advices to Wednesday
Sept. 15th.
Commercial.
' Liverpool Cotton Market. —The Sales of
Cotton for three days were 42,000 bales,
of which speculators took 8,000, and
' exporters 6,000 hales. There was an
advance of l-Bd. during the pa6t few
days on the current qualities, and the
market closed buoyant with an advanc
ing tendency.
London Money Market. —Consols closed
at 97 1-4 a 97 3-8.
SECOND DISPATCH.
The news from the United States
1 caused the advance in cotton, and pro
duced the activity in the market.
’ Manchester advices are favorable,the
prices of all qualities of goods had
slightly improved, and holders were de
manding a further advance.
Breadstuff's were seteady and provis
ions reported quiet. Corn was firm, and
( a large speculative inquiry prevailed
for White at 355. Rice was dull. Rosin
( was steady at 4s. to 4s. 3d. Spirits of
Turpentine was steady. The weather
confined favorble for crops.
At London, Rice was firm, and hold
( ers were asking an advance. Nothing
I was further known about the Atlantic
cable, but the value of shares was un
. changed. Consols, for account, were
I quoted at 97 3-8 a 97 1-2.
The reported occupation of Willa
, franca, on the Mediterranean, by the
, Russians, has proved inacurate.
j- The London Morning Post says that
j the policy of the United States against
Mexico is believed to be against any
1 present interference,so that Mexico may
2 fall an easy prey when debilitated by
j anarchy.
The Loudon Times seems apprehen
-3 sive that the ten million pounds ster
j ling indebtedness from Mexico to Euro
t pean creditors appears to be in serious
, jeopardy.
The Secretary of the Atlantic Cable
Company is preparing a reply to Mr.
Whitehouse’s letter.
Additional by tlic Prince Albert.
Halifax, Sept. 27.—The Prince Albert
left Galway at midnight on the 14th of

11th inst.
The sales of cotton in Liverpool for
two days were 30,000 bales, of which
speculators took 6,000 and exporters
4,000 bales. The market closed buoy
ant.
The weather was favorable for crops.
Flour was firm for choice qualities,
but dull for inferior grades.
Wheat was quiet, hut nominally un
changed .
Corn was quiet, and Rice firm.
The shipment of the Cable continues. 1
The rates for money were unchanged,
and Consols, for account, were quoted
at 97 3-8.
I Burning of the Austria.
Halifax, Sept. 27.—The hark Lotus
brought to this port twelve of the pas
sengers of the ill fated steamship Aus- j
tria.
The vessel took fire on the afternoon j
ofthe 13th inst., in the steerage. The
speed of the steamer was promptly
checked, but the flames spread rapidly,
and the magazine exploded. It is sup
posed that the engineer was suffocated, j
The flames drove most of the first and J
second cabin passengers to the poop!
deck, but a portion of the latter were
suffocated in the cabin.
Two boats were lowered ; one of them
was smashed, and the other so much
crowded that it was soon swamped.
Many of the passengers jumped intoj
the sea.
At five o'clock in the afternoon the|
French bark Maurice was alongside, and
she took forty persons from the bow
sprit ; and others from the water ;
and also, those she found in one of the
boats.
The first and second officers were pick
ed up, and the latter was shockingly
burnt.
Only six females were saved, and
three of those are dreadfully burnt.
There was a Norwegian bark along-,
; side the next morn'ng, and may have
picked up a few persons. The Lotus
. had no communication with her. The
, list of those saved has not been obtained.

terments in that city during the 24

Death of Hon - L, J. Sigur.
The New Orleans Picayune says that
the announcement of the death of Hon.
L. J. Sigur, at Pass Christian, on the
18th inst , took a large circle of ac
quaintances and friends by surprise.—
Hi* remains were followed to the tomb
in New Orleans, on the 20th, by a nu
merous concourse, from the residence
of Mr. Omer Lauve, on Hospital street.
Mr. Sigur was a member of one of
the oldest and most respected families
in the State.
Louisiana Intelligence.
The North Louisiana Baptist, of the
Kith, says:
In some places copious showers fell
last week, while in others the drought
still prevails. In some localities but
J little rain has fallen in ten weeks. It
has been cooler for several days, and we
hope will remain so.
All reports concur in representing the
cotton crop as a very short one. Os this
fact there can be no longer any ques
tion, though a month ago the prospect
was so flattering.
The general health of the country is
! good for the season.
The Shreveport Southwestern, of the
10th, has the following :
We have no improvement to report in
the river, which continues to recede
rapidly. In the course of a few days
the water will wash sufficient channels
through the sand bars to admit the pass
age of small boats.
Cotton begins to arrive freely from j
the interior, and business generally is '
reviving.
The weather is unusually cool and dry
for the season.
The Natchitoches Chronicle, of the
18th, says: 1
The weather for several weeks past ;
has been well suited for cotton picking '
purposes and the bolls are opening well.
The shortness of the crop in this parish
will necessaiily shorten the picking sea- >
son, and we are fortunate in the enjoy- ,
ment of weather so favoiablc to planters. |
The Bossier Times , of the 17th, says : ,
The weather for the past week was as |
usual- excessively warm, but was re \
lieved by cool mornings and evenings.
The crops will turn out sadly We’ll
make enough corn to do us, but none to
sell; cotton very slim. 1
The Red River American states that '
the ringworms have finished their work,
leaving the cotton fields extremely bare '
of leaves and forms. The Amei'ican says :
The weather for the past week has 5
been cool and bracing. The river is lo ,v 1
and falling rapidly. Robinson’s bar is 1
now the sticking point. The Yazoo
Belle spent about three days in getting ,
over it and back again.

DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into »
life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solventpower, and thecrude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the suft'erer, while bisdigestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under tile
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the.
acute, physical agony or Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux j
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
terriblclassitude which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition

(sTCureof Diseased Liver. ,
—Hoxesdale Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr.
Seth W. Fowi.k—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 was
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. Betsey Perkin. j
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Stroug, of Honesdale, who is well
known in bis vicinity as a successful practitioner.

gsT Cui e the Livei’.—There is
an article selling throughout the country that
has attained the widest celebrity ever known as
a remedy for Liver Complaints. Wc have refer
ence to DR. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR, 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 reulfedy known
for Dyspepsia, Jauudice, or a general debility •
that so often baffles the skill of our most emiuont
physicians.
Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of the
eminent physicians of New York, and it is said,
most of Ins 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 haze the benefit of his discovery. „
If those who are troubled with debility, head
ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, will try
a bottle, wc think they might save physicians’
bills, and days, perhaps years, of suffering.—
