AUGUSTA.GA:
, iday Evening, October 8,1888.
ganlzatlon and Endowment ol
the State University.
- we said the other day, we desire
- * a liberal sum be set apart for the
ersity of Georgia, from the pro
. aof the sale of the State Road, if
< object should be secured. V* e
u-gard as signally imperfect, any
mos public schools for this State,
U may omit to place our State in
uon on a broad, and well planned
lation, secure alike from the influ
sof polities and of family, local, or
minational cliques. Unless the
.nization of the government and
'uct of the University shall under
radical and complete reformation,
shall consider any appropriation
k may be made to that institution,
waste of money
i thus insisting upon a complete
:ge, we are not to he understood as
uring any of the gentlemen, who
pose either the Faculty, or the
d of Trustees, but we mean simply to
hat, in our judgment, the whole
i of Franklin College, as it exists at
-ent, is faulty and tends to a paraly
f all its power for good,
iie Senatus Aeademicus is a body
wn principally by name, hardly by
on, whose deliberations never ex
-1 to a thorough investigation of the
.ts or management of the College,
who rely mainly for information
advice upon two or three promi
t members of the Faculty and
id. No sense of individual respon
ity rests upon them. It may he
iy asserted that, on an average, the
ibers of the Senate never gave two
, s thought to the concerns of the
. ge. It is by no means surprising
I such should.be the case, since “what
. verybody's business is nobody’s
ness." Whatever may be the mo
, question involved in this thing,
t we state a fact will hardly be dis
ci. .
iie same may be, in a great meas
said of the Board of Trustees.—
care of the College has been prac
!y in the hands of a few, while
, nsibility for the good condition of
. s rests, nobody can tell exactly
e. The Board has been divided
factions. The work has been of
' est in the hands of those who had
■nal interests at stake, while—it
;ers not whether justly or unjustly
.e belief prevails to a great extent,
, the welfare of the public has been
consulted than that of individuals,
of localities. And we ought to
- ..ion here, that in some instances
,hereof the Board have also been,
ae same time, Trustees of rival in
tions in the State, a thing that
s no comment.
ie inefficiency of the Board is to bo
.ly seen in the unworthy strifes
■h have more than once been por
ed to exist between members of the
lty. Worse still, some Trustees
ielieved to have so' far compromis- j
ic dignity of the Board as to have
,-ed themselves to take sides with |
•arties at war.
ithout dwelling farther upon the j
ling defects of organization, since
believe they are pretty generally
rstood, we will proceed to indicate
leading changes which we desire to
tfected, as apart of the scheme for
ting an educational system on the
. 1 to be derived from the sale of the
. e Road.
,et the Senatus Aeademicus be abol
d, and the present Board of Trus
ts dismissed from farther service—a
barge which, we imagine, many of
m will take as a favor. In the place
this cumbrous machinery, the Legis
:re may provide for the appointment
i new Board, and their incorporation
something like the following condi
• 13. :
. To consist of seven citizens of the
te.
J. To be appeinted, in the first in
nce, by a commission, say, of the
!ges of the Supreme and Superior
irts. Vacancies to be filled, as they
;y occur, by a commission of the same
:ers.
’. No two of the Board of Trust to
resident in the same judicial district.
1. No one of the Board to occupy
osition as Trustee of any other Col
e.
.. To hold meetings at Btated times,
l at such other times as they may
:ik expedient.
;. With provision for full payment
the actual expenses of each member
the Board, while going and return
' and while in attendance on the
■etings.
7. With authority to choose one of
• ir number to preside over their de
erations.
8. To be entrusted with the manage
’ at of all the property now belonging
Franklin College, and furthermore
ith six hundred thousand dollars for
i e express purpose of erecting the Uni
• rsity of Georgia, in such form as may

The Fever in New Orleans.—The i

deaths in 1853 and 1858. The first j
case reported this year occurred on the
27tli of June, from which time up to j
the 30th of September, the deaths
amount to 3,161. In 1853, one death ; <
i was reported on the 28th of May, and j i
up to tlie Ist of October the mortality j 1
numbered 7,866. As the statements h
I stand, the deaths of the present season p
are less by 4,732 than in 1853. But the i
| Courier is confideut that the record of j
| this year is incomplete. The two Jew 1
i ish cemeteries have furnished no returns 1 j
at all this season.

Mr. Editor : Judge Reed’s picking
| may do for Middle Georgia, but not for j
I down here. Mrs. Robert Taylor has
; three hands who picked 2100 pounds of
; clean cotton in one day last week, and
can do it again.
But this is to those who know, a good i
[ evidence of tlie existence of that dis
ease known as red rust. This is not all ; :
!we have only a partial middle crop, j
land no top crop. Cotton receipts will
| be very heavy for a time, but our pick- j
| ing will be over before the 15th of No- I
j vember, because we have but a small t

Departure of Prof. Jones.
j The departure, on Saturday last, of,
! this gentleman who has, since January, j
I filled so ably and satisfactorily the chair , i
i of Natural Science in Franklin College, j
for his future home, Augusta, is hearti- j
ly regretted, not only by those to whom j
!he was at once the courteous and pa- j

J by all in our community who had the
i pleasure of knowing and appreciating i
I him as a scholar, a high toned gentle-;
j man, and an humble, consistent Chris- 1
I tian. , . ,
A laige number of the students of ,
; the College waited upon him at the
Lanier House just before he left, to hid
j him farewell, and express their regret ,
’at his departure, and if the good wishes
iof those he leaves behind, can avail
aught in influencing the future, we are
confident that he will enjoy as much
happiness hereafter, as generally falls
to the lot of mortals. We wish and
j predict for him a most successful career
in his new sphere. Having been elect
jed Professor of Chemistry in the Medi- (
’cal College, in Augusta, he will deliver
the introductory lecture in that institu
tion at the commencement of the ses

! Solved!—l)R. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR j
I DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach!
t has lost the power of duty converting food into a;
| lire sustaiiiing element, is relieved by a single
‘course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastricj
j lluid rc acquires its solventpower, and the crude
■ nutriment, which was a load and a burthen t<>:
| the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
: paralyzed'aud unstrung, becomes, under the
j v, ludivome revolution created in the system,the.
basis of activity, strength aud health. :
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
?u uto. physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
or ordinary headache, afilicted with vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that i
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack oi l
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arisingfrom the unnaturalcondition!
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev-j
cry member with the source of sensation, mo-.
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit j
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, i
invigorates aud regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
Females who have tried it arc unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon tbatj
woman has ever received from the hands off
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate aud astonishing effect upon the appetite •
While it renews the strength of the digestive j
powers it creates a desire for the solid material i
which is to be subjected to their action. As an j
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 i
precious worth I
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either j
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-j
sion, the individual suffering from general de I
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
will all find immediateaud permanent relief from
the use of thi3 incomparable renovator. To’
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it j
will prove a complete and unfailing safeguard;
against that terrible malady. There are many j
perhaps who have so trilled with their constitu- j
tion that they think themselves beyond thereach j
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The 1
Elixir deals with disease us it exists, without re- j
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder Itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution.

HTCiire of Diseased Liver.
, — Hones dale Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr. !
. j Seth W. Fowle— Sir : You are at liberty to use
I the following statement for the benefit ol the af
i dieted:
J I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink ot
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- i
commended for such complaints, but they as-
I forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild
1 Cherry , and by using four bottles 1 was restored
to better health than I have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
I as strictly true. Betsey Pkkrlv.
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, of Houesdule, who is well
• known in bis vicinity as a successful practitioner.
