Ifew Book^.
Tht Disunionist. —We have received
from the author, Herbert Felder,
geq., of Cedartown, Ga., a work of 72
pages, devoted to an exposition of the
wrongs and inequalities of the South in
the Union, and showing wherein a dis
solution of our social compact would re
dound to the weal of the South. The
work is written in a pleasant and forcible
Style, and in it we recognize the argu
ments of a prominent member of the
Coffin Regiment—a friend of the au
thor, and a resident of the same coun
ty—who has been for several years en
forcing the vassalage of the South upon
our Commercial Conventions, and popu
lar assemblies. There is much truth in
the book—and it is worthy of a perusal;
though we believe if the South will be
true to herself, and kill off—political
ly—the Southern men who are ever rea
dy to perpetuate her condition of vassa
lage, for the spoils of Federal office—she
may maintain a position of perfect
equality in the Union. We cannot yet
give up the glorious hopes entertained
for the model republic by those patriots
and sages who devised and regulated its
system of government.

Washington Correspondence.
Washington, Oct. 27th, 1858.
In my journey here I came by the
“upper route’’ so celebrated in song and
story, by the indefatigable traveling
agent, Dr. Boyden, and by the no less
persevering local agent of the route at
Augusta, Lewis Levy, Esq.
1 found the route by no means a
rough and rugged one to travel, and
without any unnecessary speed, arrived
at Weldon to meet those whom we left
at Kingsville.
Starting as I did, on Saturday, from
Augusta, the trains were delayed a few
hours at Raleigh, N. C., the capital of
the State, andga place not quite so tedi
ous of a Sunday as our friends of the
Jower route had to stop at, namely—
Wilmington, a place where it is gener
ally conceded, miss-connection lines
and flourishes, if any wherejn anybo
dy's traveling experience.
A lady who started alone at Colum- j
Tbia, and was introduced to the oonduc-j
tor, was cared for by each successive j
conductor until put in charge of the j
Captain of the Baltimore at Acquiaj
Creek and I suppose reached her desti- 1
nation at Baltimore in safety. I men-J
tion this to confirm what is often said j
of,the politeness and urbanity of con-1
ductors on this route: and by the way,!
I have always found Conductors the \
best fellow in the world, and was told
last evening by a lady, of a disinterest
ed act" of kindness performed by our
friend Webster,on the Georgia Railroad j
fora “lovelorn woman,” who had lost
her Portmonie.
, I like the upper route, although the
best part of the scenery was passed
through in the night, but as the track ; 1
was smooth, the sleep procured compen- \'
sated for the loss of the subjects of an
occular nature for future reflection.
My time has been so engaged, or rath
er my mind has so diligently employed
in the execution of business so unlike
newspaper correspondence, that any
time which has been at my command,
has not found me in a sphere to write,
and besides, like the boy who missed
fcis lesson, in the new building, I have
not got the “hang of the school house”
yet. But as lam no harder to learn
than most men, I shall be in trim by j
time Congress meets.
Should any of the readers of the Die- \
patch visit Washington, they will find it

price. Mrs. Massey is a princess among j

of death for a very foul and atrocious '

has been permitted to go unwhiped of

i Friend Atkinson :— Lumpkin is one
■ 1 of the most lovely villages in South
western Georgia. It is beautifully sit
uated and elegantly laid out and con
. tains a population of 1,500. It has all
the native elements to be a thrifty and
I prosperous town—situated in the midst
of a woalthy population, it will ever be
i a desirable location.
Stewart county is one of the best
cotton counties in this section of the
State. She lias made, as the receipts
will prove, a fair average cotton crop
this year, ( farmers averaging from four
: to eight bales per hand.) The fall hav
: ing been favorable for gathering the
present crop, it is nearly all housed.
The Superior Court, for the county,
has been in session the past week, His
Honor, Judge Kiddoo presiding. The
only case of any importance, which
has been tried, was the case of the
State vs. F. M. Puply, for the murder
of F. Wilder, which consumed three
days of the past week, Messrs. Wel
bom,| Harrison, Wimberly and Woirill
defending the prisoner, and Messrs.
Gillis, Beall and Tucker for the prose
cution. The case was a tedious one, and
was ahly conducted by counsel on either
side, and resulted in an acquittal of the
unfortunate accused. I believe that all
persous are satisfied with the verdict of
the Jury. We will remark here, that
we never saw a more intelligent Jury
than that selected to try this cause.
Tlie county is generally healthy.—

ception, may tempt me to send a few

j The Supreme Court of Georgia has
j lately decided, in the case of Mrs. Cope
j vs. the Savannah Mutual Loan Associa
tion, that that widow’s right to dower
I out of the property takes precedence
<if the Association’s mortgage. Ihe j
! same point was decided here, in the
I Cole case, by which decisions the secu
cities of Loan Associations arc placed in ,
j a somewhat critical condition. For ex- .
; ample—the widow is entitled to her ,
j dower, which is one-third of the landed ,
property. Secondly, siie and her chil- ,
dreu are entitled to one year's support ■
out of the remaining two-thirds. The ,
mortgaged property is subject to both (
of these claims, and in many instances, ,
after they are met. there is nothing left j
for the mortgagee!
This we understand to be a settled .
law of the State as interpreted by the
highest tribunal of Georgia, and, of
course, must be submitted to, until the J
decision of the Court is reversed or the j
Legislature interposes a remedy, which,
in this age of --woman’s rights,” they
are not likely to do. Nor do we think c
that they ought to legislate adversely c
to the interests of the widow and the
orphan.
It will be well, therefore, for the Mu- ‘
tual Loan Associations to understand j
how precarious are the securities on
which they have relied and are still re- 1
lying, and take prompt measures to J
wind up their business. Every mem- 1
berof these Associations is interested \
in the question—not only those who
have not borrowed but those who •:
have—as all losses incurred from such
a course, do, to that extent, retard the j
successful winding up of the Associa- !
tion, and, of course, subject all par
ties to more or less. —Georgia Citizen,

The Great Prize Fight.
; Morrissey the victor —brutal exhibi
| TION— HEENAN RAILING TO COME TO TIME
I —LARGE 9CMS OF MONEY LET.
The “great” prize fight, which has
excited the “fancy” of the country for
the last four months, came off at Long
Point, Canada, on Wednesday last, the ■
coinbat commencing at 20 minutes to 4
o’clock in the afternoon. From the
Troy, N. York, papers we gather some
particulars relative to the event :
THE “CONDITI ON” OF THE MEN.
Both men are (as they say of fat
hogs at cattle shows) in prime condi-
I ti< n. When Morrissey left here he was
j somewhat worn. His training had
been pushed to a point beyond his pow
ers of endurance. Some flesh had been
taken off that should have been left
on. The muscles had been strained so
hard —particularly in long walks and
exercise with the bells —that they gave
out readily. His breathing had be
come too short, and he “winded” so
soon as to give rise to a rumor that one
of his lungs was affected. But all ihis, ;
we are told, has been overcome.
The course pursued at Buffalo has had
the effect of restoring the impaired
energies of the renowned bruiser, and
he is now in better condition to do up :
a job of scientific mauling than ever
before —better even than at the time
of his little episode with the defunct
tutor of King Kamehameho, of the
' Sandwich Islands. Heenan is emphati
cally a fresh man. He has never en
dured the pummelling and badgering
Iris opponent has passed through at the
hands of Thompson, Sullivan, Poole,
■ and in a thousand and one bar room
1 encounters. His brawny muscles are
firm and tough as sole leather. His
sledge hammer fists presents a fine field
for the operation of a cold chisscl.—
1 His lungs are like blacksmith’s bellows
in capacity. The first trainer under
whose hands he went, came near push
i ing his regimen too far; but Aaron
, Jones arrived in time to prevent the
direful catastrophe, and he has there
1 fore had no errors of judgment toover
-1 come. The refined and scholastic Mr.
- Jones, who is a connoisseur in such
i matters—and from his early slaughter
house remiuiscenccs, a first class judge
of fat cattle—says “he never saw a man
in primer trim.” In the matter of con
dition, therefore, everything is “slap
up to the pewter,” as our merry friends
the sporting men say.
THE AMOUNT OF MONEY LET.
The amount of money depending upon
the result is immense. The mania cre
ated in anticipation of this fight exceeds,
any ever before known, for never be
fore have belligerents been allow
! ed to make their arrangements with so
much openness and unreserve—been so
lionized by the press, toasted and toa
died by inefficient and favor seeking of
ficials, and countenanced by a kind and
. indulgent public, who arc daily proud.
of all such evidences of our superior
civilization, and would not, by any
means, be guilty of putting a damper
upon the refined sport.. We have heard
-of bets being made as far South as New
1 Orleans. In St. Louis and Chicago!
- there is probably more money at forfeit
■ than in Troy. A Spaniard, residing in
; Albany, has induced his father, a Cuban
- sugar planter, to put up two thousand ;
1 dollars on Morrissey, against a similar
sum staked on Heenan by a New York j
dry goods merchant. Those who claim
to'be posted, estimate the amount of j
; bets in this State alone at from $200,-
, 000 to 5250.000, Naturally, the char
acter of the betting varies with local;
tv. Here it is one hundred to from se
venty to eighty on Morrissey. We hoard l
of numerous otters of such odds being j
made on Saturday, without any takers..
1 In New York, on the other hand, the
same odds are freely offered on Hee
nan. Though both competitors—and i
we arc sorry to say it- claim Troy as
their homo, tlic fight seems to have re-1
i solved itself into an issue between me-,
tropolitan ruffianism, personified by •
Heenan, and provincial bullyism, em
bodied in Morrissey.
THE NATIONALITY OF THE PUGILISTS.
, The fight is a continuation of the old I
. Tom Hyer and Yankee Sullivan quar
-1 rel. out of which has grown a deal
r of ill blood. The Benecia Boy is tire j
representative of America, an ! Morris
sey of the foreign fancy.
l " THEIR “SIZE AND WEIGHT.”
Heenan, alias “ Benicia Boy,” is
| about twenty-six years old, (his friends
say twenty-two years.' is six feet two
inches high, and weighed, when he
d commenced training, about 220 pounds.
,e He now weighs about 190, and will pro
,r bably go into the ring with about that
weight. This is the first fight and his
-- friends say that lie is in “good concii
r tion,” powerful and very confident.
Morrissey is about thirty-four years
old, six feet iu height and weighed 280
j pounds, lie is now reduced to about 180
’ pounds.
THE CROWD THAT ATTENDS.
A considerable number of sporting i
men left here on Saturday and this j
’ morning for Buffalo, and will be follow
ed this afternoon by more, who intend
to witness the tight. The number of
spectators from New York will be!
much greater than that of those whoj
witnessed the famous “mill” between
Hyer and Sullivan—indeed, the interest!
in the flash circles of the metropolis
seems to be greater even than here. —:
Most of those attending will of course j
have marked preferences for one of the
combatants. A gentleman from New |
York assures us that "it will be the |
ugliest party that has left that city for
many years.” The danger of getting :
such a desperate body of armed men j
together, under the circumstances, aud!
with the high feeling that exists, may !
be imagined. It will be no great mat- ,
ter of wonder if there is witnessed on -
the battle field of Wednesday such
scenes as were narrowly escaped at the
time of the fight between Morrissey and
Thompson, and that of Morrissey and
•Sullivan.
Among the more notorious of the- 1
crowd are Lewis Baker, a quiet, gentle- i;
manly appearing follow, who killed !|
Bill Poole ; Dad Cunningham, who did i i
society a similar favor by killing Pau- j I
deen ; Tom Hyer, and in fact, all the I,
great men of the fancy.
THE OriXIONS OF THE FANCY.
Morrissey is the favorite at one bun- j
dred to seventy, his party numbering:
seven tenths of the crowd, and the ma-1
jority of the moneyed men. Hec
nan, nevertheless, is very sanguine of
victory. We have no wagers to win or
lose. We simpiy reflect public opinion.
From this we learn, on the one hand,
‘ ‘ that there is no chance whatever for
.Heenan ; Morrissey will die sooner than
be whipped; the battle won't be a long
one ; Heenan will be knocked out of
time in less than twenty-five minutes”
—and, on the other hand, that “ if He
nan has pluck, which all the needs, he j
will whip Morrissey in a very short j
time, that he is a splendid boxer ; that:
he is as strong as an ox and as spry as a!
cat; that he has more science than Tom
Hyer ever had, and full as much
strength ; that he stands sduare and
solid on his feet, while Morrissey is
‘tangle legged.’ ” Either of these opin
ions may be correct. Both of them
cannot. We do not care which is borne
out iu the result.
The great Cook legacy has been ac
tually received at Brandon, Yt., and
SBO,OOO has been paid to the heirs in
that town and yicinty.

seems to be some wonderful healing virtues in
this medicine to acquire such an extended repu

that it was fully tried by a largely practicing

! T fa e Great Problem
3 Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
p, dial.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
c has lost the power of duly converting food into a
? life-sustaining element, is relieved by a.single
p course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
, fluid rc acquires its solventpower, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while ins digestive organisation was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
* wholesome revolution created in tho system, the
1 basis of activity, strength and health.
1 The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
s acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
t or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
rors. wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that j
’ I terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack oi
2 1 nervous energy, or experiencing auy other pain
: or disability arisingfrom tho unnatural condition
1 of the wouderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
tinn and thought—derives immediate benefit
from the use of this Cordial, which atoneecaims.
j invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
Females whr hive tried it are unanimo 1 s iu
declaring t ic Elixir to bo the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the La da o»
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate and astonishing effec t upon the appetite
While it renews the strength of the digestive
powers it creates a desire for tho solid material
1 wlii-h is to bo subjected to their action As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long lilo and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed cl
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not c nfined to either
sex or to auy age. The feeble girl, the ailing
J wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de i
biiity or from the weakness ot a siDglc organ
wi l kill find immediate and permanent relief from
the u?e of this incomparable t; »v oor. To
| those who have a predisposition to paralysis it (
will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard 1
ugainst that terrible milady. There are many
perhaps who have so trilled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
Klixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
erence to the causes, and will not only remove
the di order itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution
