(Anting jUispatcj}.- AUGUSTA. GA: Tuesday Evening, October U#, 1858. Aid to Denominational Colleges. It would be unreasonable as vain, to expect from the friends of Mercer, Oglethorpb and Emory, co-operation in a scheme for public instructions, if the claims of their favorite institution were to be overlooked. The Presbyterians, Baptists and Methodists constitute a large proportion of our population.— Ibeir favor or condemnation will de termine the fate of any project which proposes the establishment of a public school system. Policy, therefore, as well as Justice, requires that as much should be done by the State for these Colleges, which these churches have reared to Success, aB for any other institutions of tqual merit. We think that in propos ing one hundred and fifty thousand dollars as a donation to each of the above Colleges, we have suggested an amount which corresponds to the six hundred thousand named for the State University ; because, it must be borne In mind, that we contemplate, as a part *f otlr scheme, the right of each coun tj to have, at least, one representative Constantly in the Academic department at Athens. We propose no such condi tion for these sectarian colleges. Again, the support of the schools of Science womld require the expenditure of a large portion of the annual income of the University fund. We do not conceive it possible that the establishment of Scientific schools in the University can be looked upon, in any other light, than ta a benefit to all the other Colleges equally with Franklin, provided all are admitted to the privileges of these Schools on an equal footing—a thing to be provided for in the organization of the University. But while we are anxious that a libe ral policy should be pursued towards the Sectarian institutions, we are unwilling that the donations should be uncondi tional. We would impose terms and provisions upon the recipients of the endowments; such as would insure a faithful regard to the interests of our people, protecting the common weal against the tendencies of private and Selfish desire. “ Deliver us from temptation,’’ is a prayer which comprehends the substance of all prayer. Legislation is valuable in proportion as it removes the incen tives to evil. We will make an appli cation to the case before U 9. In all, or nearly all the Colleges of this State, the salaries of the professors are con tingent, in whole or in part, upon the tuition fees of the students. The more Students, tho larger proportion of his nominal salary will each instructor re ceive. In other words, the instructors Ut paid in proportion to the number of pupils. Thus, then, is a temptation held out to the members of the Facul ties, to admit every applicant, regard -I«bs of his qualifications. In this way the Colleges of the State become rivals Os each other, not as should he the case upon At merits of their instruction, but upon the lumber of pupils. When one institu tion lowers its standard for admission 1 notch, the others must lower also, •? suffer an immediate loss in tho pro fessional pocket. We would fain be lieve that professors have struggled ■gainst this temptation. Yet we fear that in too many instances, the strug gle has been vain. We say this in no Spirit of severity, for we know that Professors are human, and we would sot be so unfair as to expect them to resist a motive which would influence men in other positions. It is hard for them to lose any portion of wages, which are meagre at best. We will not Say that we blame them, but wo will say that we blame a public who expect more honesty in a poorly paid teacher, than would he looked for in any other man. But it is not alone in the matter of admission that this temptation does its work. It has a miserably unhealthy influence upon the discipline of our Col leges. If Faculties can be operated on by pecuniary considerations in the ad mission of pupils, they are not less likely to be influenced by like causes in governing their students. It is but nat ural that they should hesitate to use proper severity in the punishment of Offenders, when they feel that they may drive off a pupil—perhaps incur the displeasure of an influential family— and by so doing, not only decrease their income presently, but prospec- ' lively. It is to enable the Trustee to place the institution above such influences, to ' render him an independent man, sub ject only to his honor, that we advocate the substantial endowment of Mrrcer, Oglethorpe, and Emory. We would say to each College officer: you arc paid, sir, to do your duty, to raise and main tain the reputation of this College. You can best effect that object by showing yourself an able scholar and an impar tial and fearless officer. You shall be amply paid whether there be one student OT five hundred in the institution. One hundred and fifty thousand dol lars m addition to what they already possess, will support an able academic faculty in each College, independent of their tuition fees. To this donation then we would have the Legislature an nex thiscondition. That the total amount of yearly salaries paid to the Faculty ] « should never exceed the income from 1 the funded property of the College; that 1 only the tuition money and such pro perty as the institution might acquire subsequent to this donation, should be used for other purposes than the pay ment of salaries; but that the tuition 1 fees might be invested in a permanent fund, whose income might be devoted to the support of the Faculty. With this endowment, and with this condition, Piofessors would be freed, alike, from the fear of loss and from the hope of gain ; considerations of repu tation and of honor would then, without let or hindrance, urge them to the faithful performance of duty. | Teachers of Academies and High | Schools throughout the State, now ex perience difficulties growing u*t of t e 1 differences in the course of preparatory 1 and collegiate study presented by the * four Colleges of the State. The same school may contain pupils preparing ' for admission to different institutions— * therefore, obliged to use different text e books, as well as to pursue diflerent i studies. This introduces confusion in i the school and augments the labors of ; the teacher. We shall be readily un * derstood by teachers. To remedy this ; evil, we would add a further condition: , t at the denominational colleges shall , enter into to a convention with each other and with Franklin College, by which a regular course of study shall be agreed upon both as preparatory and , as collegiate. Each Faculty ought to , be allowed a certain limit of variation in their own teaching, but should re ceive any applicant who might present . himself properly prepared upon the reg ular course, i This would give relief to the public ( schools of the State, while graduation , in any of the four colleges would render , all equally fitted to pursue a further , course in the departments of the Uni , versity proper, at Athens. We can con ceive of no possible objection which could be urged to this condition. The s organization and composition of the , body who should establish the terms of the convention should he prescribed by j the donating law. Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. Letters from Memphlg—\o 1. Memphis, Oct. 14th, 1858. The “Bluff City”—lts Location See—Forts — Railroads—Crime—Amusements. None of the towns along the borders , of the “father of waters," between St. ' Louis and New Orleans, exhibit such : evidences of thrift and progress, as are ■ observable in the “Bluff City.” Scarce - ly a quarter of a century ago, Memphis was one of the small villages of Ten nessee ; now it has a population of about 20,000, and the increase of its i business interests is really astonishing. ' Its location is auspicious for this rapid ■ growth, as well from the fine resources i,f tho country tributary to its trade, as i from its distance and security from any important rival. It occupies the only eligible site for a commercial emporium between the mouth of the Ohio and Vicksburg, and distant 348 miles from the latter place. It is 750 miles i from New Orleans, and 420 from St. i Louis. It is 209 miles from Nashville, i the capital of our State. Memphis was laid out in 1819, Gen. Jackson, Gen. Winchester, and John Overton having abtained the charter. The site of the city,—a beautiful bluff 47 feet above the river—was a favorite resort of the Chickasaw Indians. In 1783, Gen. Gayoso, the Spanish Governor of Louis- ‘ iana, erected Fort St. Fernando near where the Navy Yard now stands, which , was occupied by the Spaniards until , 1803, when the province was purchased from France, during the administration i •f Mr. Jefferson. Fort Pickering was ' built, and constituted one of the long line of ports along our frontier. It has 1 passed away, and its site is a favorite 6uburbon retreat. In a future letter I may allude to the - important railroad connections and oth- i er enterprises that go to swell the ad vantages of this city as a business em porium. I observe that Messrs. Sam Tate, E. C. Brinckley, Wm. Dickson, W. B. Wal dram, E. W. Munford, W. J. Wicks, John Overston and Bcthell have bought the city of Memphis stock of $500,000 in the Memphis & Charleston Eailroad. They are to pay the annual interest on the city bonds of that i amount ($30,000 per annum) for four : years ; they are then to retire $30,000 1 of the bonds per annum until the $500,000 is retired,and to pay the inter- 1 est each year upon the bonds that are out. These gentlemen now own almost a i controlling interest in the road. I have no doubt some of your neighboring j cities would he very willing to dispose of their stock in the same road, though it is likely to pay handsome dividends. Memphis is—l must confess—entitled to her notoriety as a wicked, as well as j fast city. It is true she has 14 Churches , in charge of an earnest and devoted 1 ministry—but she has twice th it num- f ber of gilded temples of iniquity— to 1 say nothing of the purlieus, where ' shameless vice festers in lawless depra vity. The worst, if not the latest hor rible tragedy noticed by our vigilent local press is the case of an infant, found buried on a deserted premises just out of town. Two weeks ago a carriage was seen to 6topat this house - late at night, when fashionably attired people alighted and went stealthily in! bearing a female invalid in their arms. The discovery of the infant buried in the yard only adds to the mystery, while it points to a case of infanticide in our better circles, and to a stain of social depravity darker than any in the long catalogue of Memphis iniquity. The criminal Court opened its session on Monday. There was 950 cases on : the docket, of which all save 150 were new. John Drew is playing at the “Gaiety,” ’ and “ Buckley’s Serenades ” of New • Tork, are at “ Ashes.” The “Campbell Minstrels” have just played a long and popular season here; and we have also had “ Mabie’s Circus” and the “Great Austrian Bear.” In addition to these divertisements, we have a live lecturer on spiritualism in , town, in the person of Thos. Gales Fos ter, for some time an editor in the West So with all these novelties, we are in a fair wav to be “ amuthed.” Yours, MEMPHIS. - Important Information —A Chance toe Pirsons Desihocs of Emigrating to Nicaragua. —On the 10th day of No vember next, says the New Orleans Delta, a vessel will leave Mobile for San Juan del Norte, and will take any pas sengers and freight that may offer for Nicaragua. Those who desire to emigrate to Central America are advised to give notice to that effect as soon as possible, in order that passages may be secured for them and their companions; and they are also informed that it would be judicious to arrive at Mobile three or four days previous to the day of de parture. This information is derived from undoubted and reliable authority. We are indebted to our exchanges at Savannah, Augusta and other places, for their appreciation of our abstract of the late interesting news from Mexico, as reported by the Isabel. As many of the [ important details appeared only in the! Courier, it would have been proper to I make some acknwledgment—enough at least to NGnform inland renders where . the Isabel arrived. j The above we take from the Charles | ton Courier of yesterday. It is intended for some of our contemporaries, which, we know not, but we notice it merely to say was, that so far as the Dispatch is concerned all the Mexican news pub lished by us are received by telegraph. The Charleston Orphan House. We see by the Charleston Courier, that j the sixty-ninth anniversary of this no- j ble institution was to have been cele-: brated on Monday, but in consequence of the prevailing sickness in that city, the commissioners have concluded to . dispense with the time honored ceremo nies and demonstrations. This institu- i tion was commenced with a half dozen children, and a private house was first consecrated to this charitable purpose. The projector and warm advocate of this institution, was John Bobertsox, Esq., who has erected for himself an imperishable monument. The orphan house of Charleston is now one of the largest and handsomest buildings in thatcity,and the inmate6at the present time number 333 children, 207 boys and 126 girls. Attached to it is one of the best schools in that city, at which there is an average attendance of 262 chil dren. It also has a fine chapel, in which the clergy of that city rotate, and divine service is held every Sunday afternoon It is a beautiful and pleas ing sight to see these little ones, all neatly clad and well cared for, as the [ the Sabbath comes lound take their i places in the gallery on raised seats, the girls on side and the boys on the other, and listen to the melodious and well cultivated voices raised in nnision, j singing hozannahs to the Most High. The chapel is generally well filled I with citizens who attend to listen to |' the 6weet strains of musical voices, as well as the sermon. In the school, ■ there is a principal teacher, six assis tants, and a music teacher, all females. ' The Asylum is under the charge of a 1 steward and matron. 1 - - < The Merchant Fleet The Savannah News of 19th inst.says: ( The strong North Eastertly and Easter ly winds which have prevailed for the past three or four days, has brought ! quite a fleet of vessels into our port.— During the last three days the arrivals ! in port have been 2 steamships 9 ships, 2 barks, 1 brig and 4 schooners. The : nine large class ships, we understand ' are all under charter and will take car goes of cotton, which,|with the cargoes of other vessels now here, will greatly reduce the large stock of cotton which accumulated in our port for shipment to Europe and the Northern markets. As a large number of vessels are now on there way to this port for cotton : freights, we may anticipate a lively time in the cotton business for a month or so to come. - •*• - Diplomatic. Beports were current at Washington, (says the Charleston News) that Messrs. Mason and Dallas were about to resign the missions they respectively fill, in order to release the President from em barrassment in the appointment of their successors. Subsequently it was stated that there was no intention on the part of these ministers to resign. It would be much to be regretted that in compli ance with an arbitrary and unwise prin ple, that of rotation in office,two of our principal missions in Europe should be vacated, after the actual incumbents have acquireu that experience and famil iarity with the political state of Europe, which are so essential to the efficient . performance of diplomatic duties.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach 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 re acquires its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufleror, while his digestive organization was paralyzed and unstrung, becomos, 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 vaguo ter rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened w ith paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack ol nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it are unanimous in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon thatJ woman has ever received from the bauds of medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite While it renews the strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid material which is to be subjected to their action. As an 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 ot precious worth Its beneficial effects arejiot confined to either sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn man of business, the victim of nervous depres sion, the individual suffering from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ willall find immediateand permanent relief from the use of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard against that terrible malady. There are many; perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu-l 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* lerence to the causes, and will not only remove the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- j stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush j of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil-j ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofself-dc-i siructiou, fear of iasanity,hypochondriasis, dys j pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous-! ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly iniauiGie.

This statement may be reliod upon 1 as strictly true. Betsey Perrin. The above certificate was given in the pro seuce of Dr. A.

She had been under a physicians’ care for some time, but the disease seemed to bailie even his skill. She purchased some HOLLAND BITTERS at our of | flee, which has given tone to her stomach ; her J appetite and strength are returning, and we flrmly believe that this is another great cure es- ( fected by your medicine. We have still to record many wonderful cures effected by this remedy, but must wait another opportunity. One thing you can rely upon, what we have published are from persons much re- spected in our community, and are literally true. j J QUINTUS, t Ed. Sheboygan Nieuwsbode, Sheboygan, Wis- ‘ consln. oc6d6acl gT Prof. M ood, 312 Broad- , way*, is ruining the Hair Dye trade. People i J will not use dyes when a natural restoration to 1 the original color of the hair can be produced by i natural remedies. Dyes are artifleial agents, and daugerous in their application, but WOOD’S 1 ILUR TONIC is a healthy stimulant. and causes j 1 a healthy growth. A growth of gray hair on a . ! young persou’s head is unnatural, and to apply . ; a coloring fluid produces an unnatural result; I the color is changed, to be sure, but not through j ‘ , the roots of the hair. ladies, do you see that j j geranium plant in the window yonder? how yel- j : | low and faded it looks ? It is alive and growing; j yet where is the beautiful, rich, dark green that j belongs to it? Gone. You can color those leaves i ( by an external application of chemicals, but | 1 they will uot remain colored. Do you desire to j i do it naturally ? Make a solution of guano water, | apply it to the roots, and the plant will take it j ( I up into the system, and then you will see a rich i I green, permanent hue. Professor Wood’s Hair j L Tonic works on the same principle. The roots! , of the hair drink up that application, and high j j health and beauty result. CArnoN.—Beware of worthless imitations, as several are already in the market, called by dis- 1 , 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. \ Sold by all Druggists and Patent Medicine deal . ers ; also by all Fancy and Toilet Goods dealers iu the United States and Cauada. oc2-d2w Ifcto -litortiscmcnts.
