(£ billing jpsjrafcji. august geo : Kriiiay KTClitng, Oct. 30, 1858. The State Fair—Reporter*. The Atlanta American —which seems to be something of a guardian of the interests of everything about Atlanta, in reply to our allusion to the lack of Utilities for reporters, says : •We do not know what facilities our would have. It certainly is not the business of the Secretary to furnish pen's ink and paper, or to pay escorts to do the agreeable to gentle men of the Press. It certainly should be the business of somebody to see that those who visit the grounds as reporters, are furnished with the information they seek, for it is the especial interest of the Associa tion to be faithfully represented in the papers. Oneof the editors of the Amer ican was on some of the committees, and thereby had a chance to gain informa tion in reference to the articles on ex hibition. But out of half a dozen oth er papers, whose editors were there, none save the Dispatch attempted to give even a meagre outline of the at tractions of the Fair Grounds—and the officers of the society were so busy that editors were often repulsed wnen they presumed to ask questions in view of reporting. We, therefore, say that one or too committee men to ‘'do the agree able to gentlemen of the press" is just what is needed, and would do more than anything else to bring the Fair ■up to the standard it should maintain as a State Association. .«. -—■ —— The Cirniul Lodge ol’tieorglu. We learn from the Macon Messenger that this venerable and influential body opened its Annual Communication in that city on the 20th instant, W. fi. Rockwell, M. W. Graud Master, presid ing. An unusually large number of re presentatives from subordinate. Lodges are in attendance, and a pleasant and profitable sessiou is anticipated. A more healthful, or finer looking assemblage, the Messenger savs, we have rarely seen. Wm. H. Crisp.—We sec by the Nash ville papers that our old friend, W. H Crisp, formerly the popular manager of the Augusta Theatre, is entertaining the * goed people of that city with choice performances at his Gaiety. - ■ Freeman’s Painting*. We have been requested by Mr Free man', to publish the following letter from Br. Coi.lixs, in reference to the award of premiums at the late State Fair: Macox, Oct. 27,1858. W. 11. Freeman, Esq — Dear Sir Asa member of the Executive Committee of the State Fair at Atlanta, the depart ment of fine arts fell to my especial charge, and among the paintings there exhibited, was a portrait of Col. Loch rane, painted by yourself, which was considered a very superior work, and fully entitled,to the highest premium ullowed to that class ; and a premium was awarded to it, and so entered on the. list, by me, before I left Atlanta, and if you did not receive it, there must have been some error, or mistake, after 1 left. Yours. Rob't Collins. [COMMUNICATED.] Tlie Supreme Conn. Me. Editor :—I am neither a lawyer nor the son of a lawyer, but in the simplicity of my heart, I have always looked upon the establishment of the Supreme Court as a piece of supreme stupidity, and if my foresight is not dimmed, I think I hazzard nothing when I say that it will not be very long ere the people will begin to think as I do. Will any friend of the Court be pleased to state how many errors have been corrected by this tribunal ' I mean cases in which all parties acknowl edged the justness of its decrees—as far 83 I have heard the expression of an opinion, it has ever been, that when het gaining party below were sustained above, the losing party below thought the Supreme Court didn’t understand the case ; and if I were to express an opinion, I would say, just as apt as not, the Court of Errors made the mistake, and not the judge, whose decision was reversed. And why not’ are not the many as li ible to err as the one ? Have we not known corporations to commit grave errors, which have been after wards corrected by one man ? l’rominent among the objections, I Rave to this Court, I would particularly cite to its operation in the criminal ca ses. Previously to its creation the accused had every privilege that a good code of laws saw proper to give him, in legal talent, jury and judge. If with all these, he was convicted, there was no evading the penalty, unless legisla tive interposition came to his assistance, but now, perhaps, on a mere technical ity, the case is taken up, a new trial is granted, acquittal follows, and the m rrderer goes free. Such will be tbe case with Cobb, one of the murderers of Landrum, for the least that the Su breme Court should have anything to do with it, which it will, if reports are to be creditted If the object of the establishment of this Court was to put a stop to litiga tion, it has failed—if to correct the er rors of our Superior Court Juges, it has failed—if it has failed in those two things, it has failed altogether, and in my humble opinion, tbe sooner it be abolished, the better it will be for all parties concerned. Jure. [From the North Gemma Tirrus. What I Heaid Among (he Flowers. 1 JET LVLA. The mock-biid calling at my window had awakened me early, and throwing off the drowsy spell of slumber, I de ■ scended from my chamber to enjoy the freshness of the morning. Night’s s foot-prints still lingered in the vallies, as she retreated before the lustrous Day, find the shadows of her 6able ’ wings hovered darkly in the glens, f Soon, however, the gray dawn parted in the east, gleaming spears shot up r from the horizon, clouds of pink and j purple fringed with gold, floated away 3 on their airy pinions, and Earth rejoic f ed in the smiles of her bun God. Tbe . birds sung more thrilling anthems, and the hills blushed with rosy light be f Death his greeting kiss. Twus early spring time. The woods, : still under dominion of the Frost King, ' were brown and sere, save here and t there where a tree had broken through - his icy fetters and donned Us emeraled robes and floral gems, while the greater portion were yet quite bare—stretching out their long weird arms imploringly * to the fair Goddess, to give them also - summer vestments and jewels. But in . many spots the ground was radiant . with the sheen of flowers, and velvety moss banks liroidered with violets and ' daisies, told eloquently of the genial 5 hours coming on apace. I had wended my steps to a familiar ; haunt by a merry brook-side, and half j reclined on a luxurious turf-enshion. and against a silver beechen trunk.-- , The sky was soft and pearly pure, with 1 no cloud to blot its bright expanse, • save a few feathery curls of vapor, sail - ing slowly with majestic grace, like [ snowy swans on the blue element.— The sun had by this time advanced considerably on his way, but the sea -1 son was not yet late enough for his i beams to be oppressive; but instead, teeming with soft, voluptuous warmth, wooing one to repose and dreams. I looked out on a fairy nook from "my rustic bower. A romantic dell r shut in by soaring hills, and picturcs ] que cliffs mottled with gray and golden green lichens ; lofty spreading trees with bowers gracefully swaying in the wind, the ground brightening beneath ' the touch of spring’s magic wand, and > the crystal brook singing with a voice 1 of gladness over its pebbly bed. Sud s deniy the place seemed to become stiangely quiet! Tbe twitter of birds ’ was bushed, the melody of murmuring ■ waters ceased, the stirring breeze sank into the faintest zephyr, and a moment of deathlike silence prevailed. Then, observing great agitation among tbe F flowers, and seeing them nod towards . one another and flutter their delicate petals, I bent forward with attentive ear and caught these words in the tini est possible notes of music : “Do you not rejoice, sweet Daisy, that the bright spring and warm sun shine have come again ? Oh ! how r dark and cold was our long, loug win . ter sleep!’’ It was the Anemone that spoke, and ; lifting its bright little head, the Daisy thus replied : “ Ah, surely I rejoice to he free from my dreary prison, to live again in this 1 sparkling light, to feel the balmy breath f of tbe gentle air roeking me in mv mossy home, and to have the voices of regenerated nature swelling in fervent ‘ praise to our glorious Kesurrector. But e I shudder to think of the dismal night . of death from which we have so lately risen. I wonder, dear Wind flower, 8 could yours have been so horrible as 1 mine? Oh! the agony!”—and her i dainty head bowed as she ceased, her slender stalk quivering as with great emotion. 1 “ 0 yes, indeed ! I'm sure it was,” , says Anemone, “if not more so. Let , me tell you of my fair summer life and dreadful winter death, and then you r may judge of the difference between our suffering. My first rememberauce isi that I was snugly wrapped up in soma . leaves and lying close under the side of a friendly tree root. I was then but' a tiny brown seed quietly dreamiug the hours away, never caring or knowing of change, But osc day u blessed sun beam stole down to my Cell and told me of the beautiful things above ground, and bade me come up also, aud enhance, the glory of the earth by the loveliness j which would be bestowed upon me.— He said the way would be gloomy andj rough at first, and I would thirst for; water; but I need not fear, for he would smooth my path, and send the elouds, his water bearers, to give me : drink. So I hastened to send forth my | , tender shoots, and erept steadily up tiie j dark road till I would sometimes pant from thirst and chill. But quickly a ray of warmth would descend into un frozen heart, and a drop of moisture in-; spire my drooping spirit with hope andj strength. After a time, I approached so near the surface that I could see the bright blue sky; but the cool wind was sharp to my young brow, and afraid to venture farther, I lay still just under the crisp, dry leaves. However, this j was not my destination, for presently the sunbeam came, and comforting ine ; by his genial presence, led nre forth to the light where I found numbers of my i sisters already awaiting me. O! how lovely everything appeared, and with what delight I felt myself expanding into delicate green leaves like my com j panions, and watched the unfolding of my grossamer petals. How I exulted in the joy and beauty i of my new existence! Proudly I erect ray purple stem, spread out my leaves,j and expanded my corrolla to woo the amorous breeze and refreshing dews.— Other flowers sprang up around me, j and life was sweet to them as me. We j were a happy group, and loved each! other very much. Every day we would nod and smile, and tell our happiness to each other, and chant in unison ouri hymns of praise. And thus the blissful, hours of spriog sped on. But we knew! the ardent summer days were drawing near, when we must lose our bloom.—| This was a great sorrow, but we were not dismayed; for our beauteous robes of green would Btiil be left us; the sunbeam would not withdraw bis cheer ful influence ; soft gales would lull us to dreams when the dragon wing of night brooded near, and the music of flowing waters would yet charm us with their spell. So we lifted up our hearts and lived again long months of glad ness. “ But the Summer King passed away with his reign of pleasures, and Au tumn usurped his throne and wielded the sceptre. Earth now put off her se rene, peaceful air, and assumed the fea tures of whirlwind and commotion.— Strange flowers of richer, gaudier hues grew-up around us, and tints of purple, crimson and gold began to fleck the leaves of the trees. Royaliy did the conqueror march his armies into the fair realm of Summer. He .painted the • vallies in most brilliant dyes, and man tled the mountains in splendor. He hung the woods with dazzling tapes tries. and mirrored on the waters, shier c of deepest sapphire. His gay bannerr S waved from every height, and triumph ' al winds shouted his conquests on the e plains, and pealed in tones of grahdem 8 through the forest aisles. Locioiis • fruits crowned his sumptuous hoard. s bacchanalian cheer flowed in upon him e from tlie vintage, and merry was ;h( Autumn King in his magnificence ami 1 opulence. But a sad change was tc P come. Old Winter stalked through -i the land with his boisterous train o1 f sleet and snow, storms and rain, ana • toppled the “merrie monarch” from e his seat of power. The woods were di ' vested of their bright garments anti moaned piteously as the rude blasts tore them away, anti scattered them . abroad. The nrusie of the streams was ■ bound in frozen chains, and the little J plants grew wan and sere. I, too, war 1 doomed to desolation, and must sink I into the damp, dismal grave I Ixuiti r weeks of darkness and terror rolled by. ? and still tire storms beat above my head, T and raged wildly through the land.— 0 Long weeks 1 lay in anguish; my life II blood turned to veins of ice, and mj 1 heart a frozen mass. But blest be the f loving sunbeam which woke me agnir, 1 to life and joy as at first.” 1 •‘Truly, Anemone. yourß has been a hard fate,” said the Daisy, "bat lean r sympathise with you in al! your sad ex f | perience. I have also passed through •: all the scenes of pleasure and toils oi - addiction that you have depicted. Bui r|a hitter disappointment was mine, . j which you escaped, and I cannot repose - that sweet faith in the wily sunbeam - that you do: for he sorely deceived me. - Creeping down into my narrow tomb, i he breathed warmth and animation in ■ to my frozen limbs, an 1 melted my s congealed heart. Tenderly he wound i his golden rays about me, and said that . I must wake again to life and beauty. I Mo buoyantly 1 sprang above the sod. >, and was entranced to drink in the glo -1! rious sunshine once more. Bnt in a lit -; tie while the sunbeam forsook me, and >! hid himself behind a frowning cloud. — 3j Fiercely old Boreas swept by in his ■ I wrath and smote me to the ground.— 1 The Fro6t King, too, poured out his ter -1 ror. and my fragile buds lay blighted ‘ and bleeding on the earth, for Spring’s ■ advent was not yet.” :j There was a momentary pause, > and the Violet, who had hitherto le ! mained a silent listener, now meekly -. raised her gentle eyes and thus ox t claimed : . J I grieve to hear you speak so harsh ■ Jy of the sunbeam, dear Daisy, for he i is our best friend. Do not think that ' he crept into your winter abode to al ii lure you to rise too early. Your own ■ impatient heart deceived you. The sunbeam’s mission was bnt to comfort you, and assure you that happy free ■ dom would again be yours. How un ■ ’: giatefuliy you remember his kind • ness.” t-." I never viewed his visit in that 1' light before,” answered the rebuked ’ I Daisy, ‘‘and I am sorry if I have i wronged him by unjustly judging of i; his motives. But 1 am not as cliaiita -3 ble asyou, good Violet, who never had i , harsh thought in your life.” ;; ‘‘l dare say,” spoke up the Anemone, f j “ that you never had the hard fortunes t to battle with that we have, Violet, or t j else you could excuse us.” tj “You are much mistaken, Ancmo < j ne ; I have endured the same hardships ■ that you both have, and though hi.ter • to my soul, I did not murmur ; but pa ' tiently awaited the coming of my ' time.” ■■ What a good lesson you teach,kind Violet! Learn me of thy gentleness j and forbearance,” and the Daisy lov ingly leaned toward the purple cluster. ■■. Men call me the blue eyed messen ger of God,” replied the Violet, “ and ’ say I speak to them of Heaven, and “point to the mercy and glory of cur great Creator. As the emblem of faith, I tell theta of resurrection from death and decay. They love me . r or modesty, and my cheerfulness teaches them to :be content with their lot. And now, , Daisy, of what use are you ? We are all i | designed for some wise purpose;! and you have your office to perform.” | j Just at this moment a proud Haw-j j thorn spray swaying by, heard the Vio- ’ • let’s question, and exclaimed : | “ What ! that little innocent of use? , I should like to know what it is. Why, she does nothing in the world but laugh away h:r time with flaunting : butterflies which are always flitting j about her. Use indeed !” At these harsh words, the mortified j Daisy hung her head, and seemed rea dy to die with shame. Bnt the Violet, ever ready todo good,came to her rescue . and mildly said : i ” Nay Hawthorn, you are unjust.- ■ What you cite as a waste of time, isre i ally her vocation. And yon do not deem ; it useless to minister the happinessi of God's creatures do you ? But the! Daisey does this in other ways than by I ! delighting the butterflies. She is one j of the earliest flowers that gladden the , earth after the desolation of winter,and! many a cold, weary wanderer is cheered !by her promise of the warm summer . days. She shrinks not from the mourn ‘ ful grave yard,but flustering with star j ry radiance above the dreamless slum i berers, she whispers to the bereaved of , the re-union in the world beyond, and i tells the glad story of the new and more perfect life in the Better Land ” “ All that may be very true and very well,” rejoined the Hawthorn some what disconcerted, ” but who shall de- I clare that my mission is less beautiful J than the one you have just painted ! ;Am I not the emblem of Hope, that i immortal boon given to man to inspire j him to aim for a higher, nobler life—to ' lead him from the grovelling earth to j walk the fields oi Light, and to coin mune with angels ? And what glad- I some service 1 perform beside ! 1 deck | the festive hall, and crown the Queen iof May. My glowing branches illume the wood and lade the air with fra grance, and with a murmcr of delight the brook clasps the image of my spray in her glassy bosom. Ha ! Anemone, what Slyest thou for thyself ?” In low, tremulous tones she answer ed, “ I rejoice the heart of the early flower seeker, even as the Violet and Daisy. I stir the Poet’s soul with a nameless thrill, who loves to sit by my side in solitary places to gaze on my beauty, and watch the zephyrs dally with my golden hair and flutter my sil ken petals. Hence he calls me Wiud fiower.” _ A rustle among the dry leaves a little distance apart caused the flowers to turn towards a Sweet William about to speak. His rich perfume was delicious as it floated out on the air, and, eager to bear what lie had to say, I bent near er, when at that instant the shrill uote, >'of some feathered intruder sounded • from the branches above me- the breeze j rushed along, and the babbling brook - was no longer quiet. The spell *a« ; i broken—the flowers mute ! i j Returning home, my mind often re • j verted to what 1 had heard from tiiose > silent, yet most eloquent monitors of r 'the wood, and I pondered long on their s' gentle teachings. How typical of the , life of man, I thought, are these fair, i ! frail creatures of a day. Even as they i .spring up from the dust of the earth, 1 jso came we into the world, and like >j theirs, our spring time of life is a iong r‘season of brightness and beauty. Then f comes our summer time, the waning of J our freshness and vigor—the dropping , j off of our pleasures. Like them too, we - i have our winter tide of sorrow and woe, I j but which, by the grace of the merci s!ful Oneisswept away from our souls, i and the sunshine of love that warms s them into a new existence, also drives a the darkness from out spirits' sky, and S our hearts bloom again with joy and t gladness. Then came the sad reflection r that we are too prone to mistrust and ’ wrongfully accuse our best friends, as ’ the Daisy did the sunbeam. But like . the Violet, there is always some kind . reprover of our thankless errors, and it / is well, else discontent, ingratitude and ; discord would madly riot in unrestrain i edfreedom, and''white-winged Peace” ! hover not over out homes.

The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach j has lost the power of duly converting food into a \ j iife-sustaining element, is relieved by a single j j course of Ibis extraordinary tonic. The gastrin j j fluid rc acquires its solvent power, and the crude , 1 nutriment, which wasa load and a burthen to | ’ the sufferer, w hile his digestive organisation was 1 paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the wholesome revolution created iu the system, the 1 r 1 basis of activity, strength and heal: l - ( j The nervous.sufferer, while tormented by the |! acute, physical agony oi Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux : | or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter i rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with j paralysis, borne down and dispirited by tba* I ■ terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of! ; nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain I or disability arising from the upnaturalcondition . ; of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit from the use cfthlß Cordial, which at once calms. Invigorates and regulates the Shattered nervous organisation. Females who have tried it are u Dan iron :s in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the ha' ds of medical men tfor&e-d InvigCrat'ng Elixir has a direct. :m --mediate and astonislid.g ctfect open the appetite While it renews the strength of tho digestive powers it creates a desire for the s r, l:d material which is to be subjected to their action. As an I appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. I Iflonglile and the vigor necessary to its en. jovmcnt are desirable, this medicine is indeed of j precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to cither ;exor to auy age. The feeble girl, the aiiing wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn man of business, the victim of nervous depres- I aion, the individual suffering from general dc j bility or from tho weakness ol a single organ j willuil find immediate aud 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 m ilady. There are many perhaps who have so trifled with “heir constitu tion that they think themselves beyord the reach of medicine. Let not even those despair. The Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re* lereuce to the causes, and will not only remove the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution LO&> OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts cfself-de* 8 ruction, l'ear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys 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 infallible.
