AUGUSTA, GA:
Saturday Evening, Oct. *3,ISSS.
jgr An Editorial notice of the Fail at
Atlanta, is laid over until Monday.
Hanging In GrcensOorouglt.
The boy Thornton, convicted as ac
cessory to the murder of Mr. Jose?, ir.
Greene county, on Mr. Hart's planta
tion, was hung on yesterday. A largi
concourse of people assembled to set
the awful spectacle.
Officer* of the Georgia Agricultural
Society.
At a meeting on Thursday, at the Fail
Grounds, the following officers were
chosen:
Hon. D. W. Lewis, of Hancock, I’res
ident; Gen. Harrison, of Cliatham, Ist
Vice President, and Gov. J. E. Brown
2d Vice President.
Senator Hammond.—We learn from
official quartern, (says the Charleston
A r eiM,) —that the Barnwell dinner t<
our distinguished Senator will be given
on the 29th inst. On that occasion hi
will give his views in full, and the pub
lication of them will be prepared bj
himself.
His Walking Papers.—Gen. Jerez, it
Is said, lias received bis walking papers.
Gen. Cass having informed him that,
not having power, as it was understood
lie had, to settle the Nicaraguan diffi
culty by accepting the Oass-Irisarri tie
aty, it would be useless to hold furthei
communication with him, and that this
Government,in the meantime,would not
wait for any further useless negotia
tions, which only served to embarras,
a plain question, but would pursue tin
decisive policy already explained to
him.
Indictment or a Judge. —Among tlu
social anomalies presented in the city ol
New York recently, was the indictment
of Judge Russell, of the Criminal Court,
for an assault and battery at the Acade
my of Music. A t the Court of Oyer and
Terminer, a noU: Prosequi having been
entered, “general satisfaction has been
expressed,” (says a New York corres
pondont of tlio National InUUigencer,)
• that the spectacle has been avoided ol
a public trial of the Judge of a Criminal
Court, for a criminal act.
An amative young man sent the fol
lowing lines to a paper, to be inserted
T.ith the notice of his marriage :
Love is the union of two hearts
That beat in softest meloily ;
Time with its ra\ int-'s imparts
No bitter fueiou to its ecetaoy.
The typo was drunk, and rendered it
thus :
I.ovo is the onion or two heads
That boot is soft and mellows ;
Time, with ii- c»bbape3 in carts,
No better feeding lor an extra day.
The consequence was, the editor was
cowhided.

Selma, Ala., Oct. 22, 185 b.
Mr. Editor I left Atlanta on Wednes
day. and after 30 hours travel, I arri
ved at Selma.
My brief acquaintance with Selma
will not justify me in endeavoring to
describe it, hence I will merely remark
-that it is a beautiful place, and in my
next 1 will try to string my feeble des
riptive powers to such a pitch as will
enable me to describe this ‘shady city.’
There is no doubt but the yellow fever is I
raging to an alarming extent in Mobile.
Many Mobilians who have been travel
ing during the summer are stopping in
the towns and villages along the river
anxiously awaiting the disappearance of
this unwelcome visitor.
The weather is damp and warm, which
Is exceedingly unfavorable to the abate
ment of yellow fever.
The river is very low, and I learn
that there is a great deal of cotton on
the hanks ready for shipment as. soon
as the river shall rise enough to enable
large boats to ascend it. The few boats
now running cannot possibly carry al!
the cotton off. Respectfully yours,
PORCUPINE.
Hc-altn of the City.
It will he seen by the report of the
Board of Health that there was only
one interment yesterday. There are
still a few cases of fever existing, hut
we are assured that the sickness has 1
very greatly diminished within the last
week. _ The prospect at present is in fa- 1
vor of a speedy disappearance of the 1
fever, and the re establishment of the '
general_ health of the city.
It will be observed by those who
have taken the pains to examine the I
reports of interments during the past ’
six weeks, that the mortality has been 1
chiefly confined to unaeclimatcd per- !
sons, that very few natives or old resi- •
dents have died of the prevailing fever.' 1
which has been of the mildest type.—j
We feel no apprehension of its increase, \
and consider our resident population
now here safer than they would be in
the country. It is, however, perhaps
too early for absentees or nnacclimated
persons to come to the city. In a few
lays we confidently expect to be ahie to
invite them to come with perfect safe
ty.-Sav. Xews, 22J.
Snake Charmer. —Mr. Virsen. the
celebrated snake charmer, at present in
Virginia, has ten large and venomous
snakes—one viper, one black snake, one
copperhead moccasin, and seven rattle
snakes. He would put them all togetb i
er and place them round his neck. 1
when they would rub their heads all S
over his face in the most affectionate -
manner. He would then put all togeth- I
er and place them in his bosom, next I
Jhe flesh, and then pull them out one I
fr a time.

Hephzibah Baptist Association.
SECOND DAY S PROCEEDINGS.
Friend Atkinson After the adjourn
ment of the first day, I went to the
beautiful residence of William Zachary,
Esq., who, to my deep regret, I found
confined to his bc-d by a severe indispo
tion, where I domiciled for the night.
The hospitalities of the house were
gracefully and magnificently dispensed
by Mrs. Zachary and the amiable and
iceomplished Mis, Caroline Cliett. The
hours were pleasantly spent, and fled
away noiselessly. Mrs. Zachary, un
like many of the fashionables of the
present day, knows how to keep her j
const. I arrived at the Church in sea
sonable time. The Association assem
bled at 9 o’clock.
The Committee on Business made
their report, which was adopted.
Roll called and Decorum read.
Pleasant Grove, a new Church in Jef
ferson county, presented her petition
or admission into the Associ ition, and ;
submitted her Articles of Faith, where
upon the petition was granted, and the
•ight hand of Fellowship extended to
I. J. Wren her Delegate.
The Committee on the Circular Let
ter, prepared by Joseph Polhill, report
'd favorably, recommending it to be
read. J. E. Ryerson called to the Mod
aator’s Chair, and the Circular Letter
read and ordered to be printed with the
minutes.

The Association adjourned at .’Ol-2
o’clock, until after dinner. W. H.
Clarke, the returned Missionary from
Central Africa, according to previous
irraiigeinerits, agreeably entertained
1 die congregation with a vivid desert p
t tion of the life, manners and customs
, if the inhabitants of that country, dis
playing a large variety of the products
■ if their skill, such as handsome ladies' .
- -bawls, knee pouts, togas and flowing:
I robes.
J. E. Ryerson preached ti : 'di-don- ;
ary sermon, from Romans, Ist . hapter,
18th to the odd verses, and 2d Coriuthi- •
ans, 6th chapter, 13th, 14th. loth ver- '
ses. It would be no eulogium to say '
that in sublimity, eloquence and power,
it can never know an equal, tuur h less a \
superior, for panegyric, with its voiu j
minous vocabulary, would fail in the
attempt to pronounce a verdict. A col- |
lection was taken up at its close— i
amounting to the handsome 6um of 1
$90.56.
During the morning, we were blessed I
with several refreshing showers After
the conclusion of the services in the
Church, the services al the tabic in the
grove began, and many engaged there
t in with ardor. Two young gentlemen
—one, whose ebcu-hued locks are quite
an attraction, and the other, whose ru- ,
bicund visage resembles a plum fully |
ripe, were circulating around quite ex- j
tensivcly, and, 1 believe, were onsoler
s ed by the ladies, as the most gallant of
any of the A— delegates.
Prof. Williams preached in the after- ;
noon, from Nehemiah, 13th chapter, i
i 31st verse. This was a beautiful, forci-1
ble and elegant discourse.
The Association met after dinner.

services.
After signing and prayer, the Associ- 1
ation adjourned to meet at Rocky i
Creek. Burke' couuty, on Saturday be- j
fore the first Sabbath in November,
18-59. 1
The closing scene of the Association, <
giving the parting baud to each other, 1
was of the most tender and thrilling j
character. Each heart was filled to
overflowing with Christian love, and all j 1
in the unity of the Spirit. The Associ- 1 1
i ation closed its labors in harmony—no | (
j unkind word was uttered duriug the j.
| whole session, and no question calcula-}'
I ted to excite heated discussion was pre- 1
sented. I cannot close without saying 1 1
that, for generosity and kindness, the
people of that section have no superior c
anywhere. I would especially refer, J
without desiring to be invidious, to the t
magnanimous liberality of George Ma
gruder, Esq., who, although not con- '
nected with the Church, yet extended s
the boundless hospitalities of his house, ■
to a large number of the Delegates.
VV’e subjoin to this the statistics of r
the Hephzibah Baptist Association. <■
Our report, ispiobably not as full as o
it might have been, from the fact that (
the clerk being a single man, was in a
great hurry to make his departure as *
soon as the Association adjourned, and '
for which we cannot censure him. Our
thanks are, however, eminently due
him. for his kindness and courtesy to us. *

‘ eompanying translation, it was written 1

Jvukoftumon—A Fantasy*
And the contemplation of these sub-j
I jects haunted me continually,—l could j
;qot sleep for them, and so I said to mv- i
self with a view toits bearing on my own;
j case.J “I will find _ihe seat of the soul, j
I—it shall not escape me, I will be no-;
ticed among my cotemporaries for my
! vast erudition, for a wisdom more pro
'!found than the well of Democritus.— ;
And betaking myself to tlie medical
'schools of Germany, I studied there j
’ ' many years until I knew all that could ’
. 1 be taught, and then shutting myself ’
■ up in my chamber, I toiled hardly and
earnestly in search of the scat of the;
• Soul. There was no part of the brain 1 1
■ 1 did not dissect. Once I thought I had
found it in the Pineal Glander, and sol
puplished it to the world, and there
were not wanting many who became
converts to my doctrines.
My fame grew apace, wealth came in, j
my coffers overflowed, but yet I was not
; satisfied, for I kuew the seat of the
soul was not found.
Again I sought it in the heart,—the;
1 solar Plexus—the ganglion of sympa
’ thetiejnerves—the liver ; and with the
5 same result. And so at last, in despair,:
i I threw down the scalpel and said that
J jl would find a solution of the mystery
i i in the field of organic chemistry, and if j
s I did not, I would at least discover the
* Elixir Vit, which Van Heimoht had so
, long and patiently searched for. I poor-.
- ed diiigenily over the curious an 1 mol j
‘ anchoiy volumes of the Magi, and the
. jerabbied characters of the Arabian MSS
grow familiar to rue by continual study j
; I worked day and night in my labora-i
jtory, and the fires of ray furnace went;
j out not at all.
' And in the tertiary combinations o!
‘the three noble metals. Gold, Silver,
and Mercury, and the mathematical
j certainty which their Balts took on
| themselves in their properties and
i forms of crystalization.l fancied I could
I perceive something higher than the
laws of mure natural agencies,—
** Bs ° ~ ;
And now,indeed, I felt that I was up
on the eve of the mighty mystery, that
I held the key which unlocked al! the
treasures of buried centuries. Yerydis-j
I tinctly do I remember the night wheel
'Si essayed the investigations of these >
: things. Very harmoniously did the
'agencies which were enlisted for the ac
■ corn pi ish merit of these means work to
gether. But who can say that I was
I prepared for the accident which caused
.sucls luckless failure and such doplora-j
; ble sequences. If the fumes of the I
j chemical distilling there in the alembic
- ;had not rose up and stifled mo, so that
’1 1 lost my presence of mind and fell to j
j the floor in a swoon, under advan
tage of which entered KAKOD.TMON.that
evil spirit of old times, my name,would
now have ranked among the illustrious
of this earth.
But the terrible Fate had entered ;
and for ray soul there never was rest
any more,—and now farewell. Oh dream
of Fame, dream of my boyhood and
:my maturer years; he had set his sig
-1 net cn my brow, making me his own
|forever, until the end of all time. —
What mattered it, that I could not—
s :an not behold him, I know,—l fed he
lis ever present—keeping watch by my
l side, —like a guilty conscience with its
] victim condemned for murder.
' And to the confines of the Earth, I
: fled in vain. To the silent Solitudes of
Arabian Deserts, and the desolate snow
covered waters of Siberian Tartary.—
Andlikean avenging memesis, the spirit
ever followed, pursuing me until I had
once more entered cities, and the con
fines of civilized men. And then my
nature became so changed, you would
scarcely have known me ; for of all
that is vile in humanity on earth, I be
came the vilest—in moral pollution,
more like the whited sepulchre, than 1
the sepulchre was itself. And I said in i
the bitterness of my heart, that I would
once more return, and look on my
home, and the land of my ancestry.—
I would learn, if those of my kindred,
could see in the form and features of
j the degraded wretch, who might stand
! before them, any traces of that proud
iintellect, they once almost worshipped.
And so, taking ship at Alexandria, I
traversed rapidly, the beautiful vine
covered Islands of the Aegian Sea.— •
And the sky shone clear and blue above 1
us, and the ship sailed on. But all 1
was deceitful, and ere night the Bhip „
sunk, and the moaning billows, (and 1
perchance the mermaids,) chaunted a
- over the bodies of all who had -
entered that ill fated vessel—all save
one, rejected and cast out by relatives— ,
the comate and companion of the arch
Demon of Hell.

Solved! —T'R. MOUSE’S INVIGORATING COR- ;
i DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach j
i has lost the power of duly converting food Into s j
; I lilu-auEtainiug element, is relieved by a single
1 ‘ course of this extraordinary tunic. The gastric j
! fluid ro acquires its solventpower, and the crude
1 nutriment, which v. a load and a burthen to
; the sufibrer. while his digestive organisation was |
! paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
I wholesome revolution created in the system, the j
j basis of activity, rtrength and health,
j The nervous sufferer, while tormented by tne,
’ ! acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tlc-dolurenx;
|or ordinary headache, alllictcd with vague ter- j
j i-ors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with j
, i paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that!
j terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
j nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
' or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
j cry member with the source of sensation, mo*;
jtton and thought—derives immediate benefit
j from the use of tips Cordial, which atonceca.ms, j
! invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous;
organisation.
j Females who have triad it are unanimous m
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that;
woman has ever received from the hards ol
! medical men.
j Morse’s Invigorating EUxir has a direct, .m
--mediute and astonishing effect upon the appetite
i While it renews the strength of the digestive
■ powers it creates a desit • for the solid material
[ which IS to be subjected to their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
j If long life and the vigor necessary toitsen
joyraor.t ure desirable, this medicine is indeed of!
1 precious worth
Its beneficial cffcc's are not confined to either
J sex or to any age. Tlie 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 j
| bility or from the weakness ol a single organ
will all find immediate and permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
' those who have a predisposition to paralysis it t
will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard
j against that terrible m ilady. There are many
; perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- _
(tion that they think themselves beyond thereach j
'of medicine. Let not even those despair. The,
i Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
• lerenco to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution
