Lawrcnet-vllle Sews.
This is the title of a new paper jus
6tartefl in Lawreneeville, Gwinnett coun
ty, in this State, by Isaac B. PiLantu
It is a neat and handsome little, sheet
and the editor announces that its co
nmns are open for free political discus
sion. We wish it success. “The mon
the merrier-the fewer the better fare.
We are fearful, however, from the num
ter of weeklies springing up through
out the State, that ere long they wil
find it difficult to feed out of the sam
trough, and that the little spoons wil
have to give way to the larger ones.
Atlanta American.
We see by the last number of th
well conducted sheet, that J. S. Slaugi
teb, Esq-, has become associate editoi
Mr. S. wields a vigorious pen, and w
welcome him into'the Editorial Irs
teinity.
Health of Savannah.
We regret to see by the last report o
the Board of Health of Savannah, that
there were twelve interments in that
city during the 24 hours ending Octobei
4 7, P. M.—seven by Yellow Fever
one by Bilious Fever, one convulsions,
one Whooping Cough, one Cholera In
fantum, and one by Spasms.
Monthlies
The Bon Ton.— The October number
is on our table. It contains four beau
tiful engravings of the fashions, accom
panied with patterns and accurate de
scriptions of the different style of dress
es, in English and French.
American Cotton Planter.- This is
a neat Agricultural Monthly, published
at Montgomery, Ala., and edited by N.
B. Cloud and Chas. A. Peabodt. The
humber before us is an excellent one
price $1 per annum. Cheap enough.
The Austria.— Telegraphic advices in
the Baltimore papers, charge the origin
of the fire upon the negligence with
which the fourth officer fumigated the
steerage with burning tar. The list of
the saved is also published. The French
hark proceeded to Fayal. The cargo
was one of the mo6t valuable ever ship
ped from Europe, consisting mainly of
silk and velvets for winter goods.
General Wm. Walker.— The Nash
ville Daily Mews of Tuesday, 2, tli ult.,
says: “We learn that General Wm.
Walker, ‘the grey eyed man of desti
tiny,’ arrived in this city on Sunday last
from Louisville. He is accompanied by
Col. Van Natzmer.’’
_..®..
Iff The Savannah Republican says :
By a despatch received in this city, we
regret to learn of the death, at the
Howard House, New York, Monday
evening, of Mr. John S. Binford, a na
tive of Richmond, Va., and for several
years a resident of Savannah.
General Scott. —The New York Even
ing Post, of Monday, referring to a para
graph concerning the recent injuries
sustained by this veteran, says:
We are happy to have it in our power
to state that the condition of General
Scott is far for being as alarming as is
here represented. He is rapidly recover- j
ing from the effects of his fall; he sits
up more or less every day, and the pain,
which affects him only when in motion,
is rapidly subsiding. He is in excellent
spirits, and expects to be able to return;
to town in a day or two.
A Rich Legacy. — Mr. Dermot Demp
sey, supposed to be the most wealthy j
man in Macon, died on Sunday last leav
ing an estate of $500,000. We learn
that he was a Roman Catholic in reli- j
gion; having had a priest of that faith
with him during his last illness, it was
found after his death that his will di
vided $5,000 between his two children
and gave the remainder, $405,000, i 0
the Catholic Church.
Increase of Customs Revenue.— The
receipts from customs at New York shot
up to a high figure in the early part of
last week, by reason of a heavy impor
tation of dutiable fabries by the Vigo
and Persia. On Friday and Saturday
hut $50,000 each day were received.
Total for the week $638,000.

Suicide of a Ruined Girl. —Miss Esther
Ann House, a beautiful young lady, who
bad been inveigled into a house of ill
fame, drugged and mined, committed
suicide at Manchester, N. 11., on Friday,
by taking arsenic. She concealed tin
fact of her taking poison until medical
aid was too late.
Superior Court.— The Superior Court
is still in session, a large amount of
business has been disposed of. T lie trial
of Mike Davis for the murder of Mil
ledge Gay, was taken up on Thursday
last, and the Jury returned a verdict
against the prisoner on Tuesday of this
week. The defendant petitioned the
Court for a new trial which the Courl
granted .—Covington Times 30f/i ult.

Bleeding
We have been under the impression
♦ all along that our brethren in Kansas,
whether from the North or South, were
existing in extreme destitution, with
*. few of the necessaries of life (not to
~ mention the luxuries) except Sharp’s
Rifles and other indigestible food. But
st we find, we have been laboring under a
a- gad mistake, and that the inhabitants
*■ of Lecompton, if no other city, have
Bills of Fare daily spread before them— \
T bills that the proprietors of St. Nicholas,
s " the Astor, and other celebrated Hotels
' e in this section, may try to imitate, hut
will never be able to equal. A friend
i- has furnished us with the following
i- Bill of Fair, served up at the Buck and
” Breck House at Lecompton. Epicures
16 should give it a careful perusal—it will
make their mouths water, and perhaps
be the means of a good reddance to this
section and not much gain to Kansas.
But here it is, let the consequences be
lis what they may. They have curious
H ' names for some of their articles.

Swainesboro, Ga., Sept. 28,1858.
Mr. Editor :—Our Superior Court is j t
- now in session here, and I dare say you ] d
will find some interest in a brief ac- -d
count of the occurrences that are break- j'
ing the dull monotony that rages in ■ e
| this village the year round. There are *
[ here, at this time, an unusual number
of the legal profession, Augusta, Sa- j
vannah, Sandersville, Louisville and j,
Waynesboro are all represented, and j
! among them there are five candidates z
for the office of States Attorney, Geo. T
jA. Mandell and Thos, A. Ward, Esq., ]
■ of Burke, Claiborne Snead and Alpheus r
M. Rogers of your city. p
Last evening a meeting was called to i a
hear these young aspirants speak.—
W. R, ilcLaws, Esq. (the present incurn 8
bent of the office, in which they are
all in hot pursuit,) was called to the
chair, and an exceedingly witty chair-
j man did he make. His introductory j
' j remarks were really felicitous and t
called down repeated rounds of raptu- j
! iousapplause, c
The first speaker called out, was C. j *
Snead, Esq. who made a very pertinent, , 6
. sensible and happy little speech. He j 1
i made but one mistake, and that was in j'
J touching politics at all. This was not ]
politic, and prevented his effort from i
a receiving universal approbation.
' Other candidates were then called on, I
but they all declined to respond, and !
t the meeting adjourned.
| The event that was replete with more
interest than all others that has occur
y red at this term of the Court, was the
t public examination, in open Court, of
g John C. Carter, Esq., upon his appiica
-t tion for admission to the Bar. I have
been a member of the legal profession
in Georgia, for about fourteen years,
j and have been present at the exanima
te tion of over one hundred candidates for
ir admission to practice law, hut I never
'H witnessed an examination before as
signally brilliant, as was the one I had
il_ the pleasure of hearing this morning,
in In fact, it was apparent to every legal
mind present, that the yo mg student
was already an old lawyer, and expres
sions of surprise and admiration were
at constantly escaping from the oldest
members of the bar as the examination
was progressing. Undoubtedly Mr. Jno.
C. Carter found himself when the At
torney* s oath of office was administered
to him, upon as high ground,in the esti
mat-on of his professional brethren as
any other member of the profession
ever did any where. I make these facts
|the subject of mention, because he is a
native of Burke, and has settled in your
city, and is going into the practice of
his profession in partnership with your
estimable fellow citizen John P. Shoe
make, Esq. The people of this coun
ty seem to be enjoying good health and
spirits. The seasons have been regular
and the crops are very fair.
Yours, Truly, Erskine.
Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. Ist, 1858.
Mr. Editor .-—Well knowing that you
will expect to hear from me in the Rail
Road city, I take the opportunity to ad
dress you a brief letter premising that
it may also he dry, hut I hope not more
so than the streets of this undulating
place.
It is presumed that every city in the
Union requires for its existence, and
! the well being of its local press, some
] excitement, either of a general,periodi- :
cal or local character, and the features j
which distinguish Atlanta in this re
i spect, at the present writing, are the re
vival, the cause of Free Education, to
gether with the building excitement,
J which is just now qtidemic ; besides we
j have on exhibition the Comet, which is
equal to anybody’s comet—although as
| one of our papers is suspended for a few
| days,we have not yet had the announce
ment that “the comet passed through
Atlanta 1 ” In addition to the items
mentioned, Dr. Beale, with whom you
| are acquainted as the best Panorama
! manager in the country, is here with a
most superb view of the Mammoth Cave,
\ and other etceteras, which the Doctor
knows so well how to dish up for the
crowd. Let the Augusta people look
out for him when he arrives with them,
which he will shortly do, with addenda
! to the voyage of Dr. Kane to the Arctic
Regions, which is to make altogether the
best picture of the kind ever exhibited
anywhere.
The subject of education has been ta
|ken up in earnest by the “American, ”
] meetings have been held, committees
] appointed, reports made, and the public
very general 1 y aroused to th e importance
of common school education,and the in
dications now are that the city willestab
lish such a system as seems to be required
by the wants of the children, now on
the carpet for the promotion of the ba
sis of their future career.
In the Churches, a revival of great
extent is progressing, and we know not ,
but the “thousand conversions” which
have been prayed for have been at
tained.
More than twenty stores are in pro- 1
cess of erection, some of them with iron ,
fronts of corinthian style. Whitehall :
street bids fair soon to he an ornament

ing our visit to Lowell we were intro
duced by one of their prominent citi
zens to the laboratory of Dr. Ayer, (in
ventor of Cherry Pectoral and Cathartic ! J
Pills,) where we were shown with gene- i c,
rous frankness, his processes and his fi
products. This master genius of his
art is manufacturing the subtle essences -
of flowers from tar and other vegetable S
substances. His essence of Pine Apple 1
Strawberry, Checkerberry, Quince,Pear,
Canella, Cinnamon, &c., not only equal a
hut they exceed in purity of flavor, those 1
vegetables themselves. His oil of Win- 1
ter-green is purer and of hotter flavor ,
than any that can he gather from the i
plant—and yet is made by chemical!
composition from the Hydro-carbons in j
tar 1 His process is, to analyze the sub
stance and tiiacl the exact ultimate
]atomß of which it is made, then recom
ipose them in the same proportions

The two children of Mr. Harvey, re
siding near Centralia, HI., who made
such a terrific aud unexpected ascension
|in Mr. Brooks’ balloon on Friday, the
(17th ultimo, from their father's farm,
have been found all safe. They were
found forty miles from Centralia, and
about twenty from their father’s res
idence on Tuesday morning. They
went up four and a half miles beiore
descending. The older of the children,
a little girl of eight year«, (hercompan
ion was a boy, aged three,) gives the
following account of their descent.—
We take it from a correrpondence of
the Cincinnati Enquirer:
After being up some time, she dis
covered the valve rope, and seeing that
. it went up in the balloon, she jerked it,
and finding that she could hear “the
> chickens crow more plainly when she
[ pulled it,” she hung on to it until she
found her frail ship fast in a tree top,
where she stayed until daylight, and
I was rescued from her perilous situation
t by a Mr. Achison and his neighbors.

g*r Prof. Wood, 312 Broad
way, is ruining the Hair Dye trade. People
will not use dyes when a natural restoration to
the original color of the hair can be produced by
natural remedies. Dyes are artificial agents,
and dangerous in their application, but WOOD’S
HAIR TONIC is a healthy stimulant, and causes
a healthy growth. A growth of gray hair on a
young person’s head is unnatural, and to apply
a coloring fluid produces au unnatural result;
the color is changed, to be sure, but not through
the roots of the hair. Ladies, do you see that
geranium plant in the window yonder ? how yel
low and faded it looks? It is alive and growing;
yet where is the beautiful, rich, dark green that
belongs to it? Gone. You can color those leaves
by au external application of chemicals, but
they will not remain colored. Do you desire to
do it naturally? Make a solution of guano water,
apply it to the roots, and tho plant will take it
up into the system, and then you will see a rich
green, permanent hue. Professor Wood’s Hair
Tonic works on the same principle. The roots
of the hair drink up that application, and high
health and beauty result.
Caution.—Beware of worthless imitations, as
several are already in the market, called by dif
ferent names. Use none unless the words (Pro
fessor Wood’s Hair Restorative, Depot .St Louis,
Mo., and New York), are blown in the bottle.

JIFTlie Great Ptobicin
Solved:—Dß. MORSE'S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspcptlo patient, whoso slomacb j
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
fluid rc acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
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.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-dolorcux
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 arising from the unnatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
-1 tion and thought—derives immedi-.te benefit
1 from the use of this Cordial, which atoncccalms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization. ,
1 i Females who have tried it are unanimous in 1
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
’ j woman has ever received from the hands of
, medical men. . ...
. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, lm
! 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,
• W hich is to be subjected to tlicir action. As an
? appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
i If long life and the vigor necessary to its cn
-1 joyment arc desirable, this medicine is indeed of j
; precious worth „ ...
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either |
j sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the a.ling j
I wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn j
j man of business, the victim of nervous depres- j
>i sion, the individual suffering from general de j
' j bility or from the weakness of a single organ
| willa.ll find immediateand permanent relief from ,
’the use of this incomparable renovator. To I
.' those who havo a predisposition to paralysis it j
j will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard ;
J' against that terrible malady. There are many j
,i perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- j
j 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- \
,1 lerence to the causes, and will not only remove j
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con-j
stitution „ , .... * !

flT’Ciire tlie Liver.— There is i
an article selling throughout the country that I
has attained the widest celebrity ever known as *
a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have refer
once to HR. SANFORD’S IN VIGOR ATOR, OR
LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures al
most too great to believe, were it not for the un- r
doubted evidence that accompany the testimo- ,
nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known ;
for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debility i
that so often baffles the skill of our most eminent .
physicians.
Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of the j
eminent physicians of New York, and it i 3 said, .
most of lus cases were treated with the Invigo- j
rator with such invariable success that he has
been induced to offer it as a family medicine, and
let tlie world have the bcuetit of his discovery.
If those who are troubled with debility, head
ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, wifi try
a bottle, we think they might save physicians’
. bills, and days, perhaps year 3, of suffering.—
HP A Great Medicine for
Females.—Hundreds of stimulants have been
invented and sold, purporting to be specific in
the various diseases and derangements to which
the delicate form of woman render her subject.
The result of all these stimulants has been to
impart momentary activity to the nervous system,
and false vigor to the muscles; but this relief
has been succeeded by a depression and pros
tration greater than before ; and the repeated
s attempts of invalids to build themselves up by
i these false remedies, have finally ended in de
. stroying what little vital (rganization was left.
But in using BCERHAVE’S HOLIiAND BITTERS,
' you will find no such disastrous results. It is a
purely vegetable compound, prepared on strictly
cientific principles, after the manner of the cel
ebrated Holland Professor, Bcerhave. Under
- its influence, every nerve and muscle receives
■ new strength and vigor, appetite and sleep re
i turn, and finally, perfect health. See advertise
