(Getting frsjjatcl}. AUGUSTA, GEO: Frld»y~icv eill "I>’ ott - -- 1 - 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. This work is for sale by Wm. Kay, Atlanta. Col. £larrnl*on. We regret to learn (says the Atlanta Intelligencer,) that Col. Harralson, the Collector of Customs at Brownsville Texas, died a few days ago, there of Tellow Fever. He was a brother of j the late, Hen. Hugh A. Harralson, of! Troup. Sricm. —'The steamship Montgomery, j which arrived at Savannah on Tuesday last, brought $20,000 in gold, for: Messrs, Brigham, Baldwin & Co. Pataula Circuit.—Francis D. Bailey. Esq., having resigned as Solicitor of this Circuit, the Governor has appoint-1 ed W. S. Johnson, Esq., of Cliattahoo-! chee county to fill the vacancy. 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 a most excellent place to hoard at 456 Pennsylvania Avenue, at a reasonable] ; price. Mrs. Massey is a princess among j housekeepers, and everything is “ romme ' il faut.” The weather is slightually cold, and dusty? don't talk! Strakosh with Madame Colson, and the rest of the Opera Troupe, are get ting the whole city agog. J. E. Owens is at the Theatre, drawing houses that probably pay. There is much excitement on account; cf the efforts to have Barret pardoned I *)y the President. He is under sentence of death for a very foul and atrocious ' murder It is to be hoped that law -and order will here rule, and that the . apn it of assassination and murder which has been permitted to go unwhiped of justice here, will be rebuked, Jours, Quartz. I Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. LuMrKiN, Ga., Oct. 24th, 1858. 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.— | This waif meeting with an inserting re ception, may tempt me to send a few more anon. Tours, &c., Calhoun. - An exquisite young lady wriggled in 1 to a linen draper’s, and with the most , excruciating drawl she could affect, in quired if they had any “subdued mouse colored silk."” “No/’ replied the dra i per, with a sudden and impressive twirl ■I of the yard-stick, “but we have some | enraged rat-color.” ! The heaviest blow the militia system I of Virginia has yet received is recorded ! by a country newspaper, which states \ that a tarveller going through the town ; mistook the militia, drawn up in line, j for the chain gang. It is computed, by the North Ameri , can. that Philadelphia has a population of between 610,000 and 625,000, and | that it increases, and lias increased since ! 1850, at about the rate of five per cent I per annum. j It appears from the game list, that not less than six clergymen of the Church of England have actualy taken out certificates licensing them to kill , game and sport this year. Society will j be shocked. r ! The Supreme Court of Michigan has ’ j decided that the proprietors of a stcaur -5 j boat are not obliged to give a colored II person a cabin passage if such be their I rule. j A father being applied to for the rea ll I son of his son’s absence from school, the J 1 schoolmaster received the following in d S telligont reply. “Kept at hometogo aterin.” Horse Radish, grated fine and applied ! to the face or part affected, is said to be -“ ian immediate remedy for neuralgia or w toothache. >f j Captain Sawyer, U. S. N., has pre ! Isented to the State of Vermont a chair j made from the oak of the old frigate e | Constitution. Hon. Zadoc Pratt has, according to (his own account, “tanned one million 3 j hides,” and is said to be worth one mil j lion of dollars. The best way to curb a wild young j man is to bridal him. , UtiHillng and Loan Associations—Su preme Court Decisions. 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, IZd inti. 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. A young man of Orleans county has been seriously squeezed by one of Bug gies’ presses. He married old Rngglts’ daughter. Lords G rosvenor and Cavnedish have left Bt. Paul’s and gone to Red River on a Buffalo hunt, Why is a minister like a locomotive ? We have to look out for him when the bell rings? ' BY TELEGRAPH. Hnic»« News. !

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 1X)8.- OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de !i ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pcpsia, gciiorui prostration,irritability, nervous ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys ,oria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation ol the heait, unputeucy, constipation, etc., from ■ whatever cau e arising, it is, if there is any reli- . once to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly lutambie.
