A most fiendish case of poisoning was i pen “rated at Milton county Court,’ House, a few days ago. All m attend- , ance ah the hotel, and all who drank atfHie hotel well, were taken vi olently iVduring the night. At the) time our informant-Col. SiMMoss-left, | none had died. The exact nature of; the poison, or the fiendish perpetrator) of it had not been discovered. Its ef fects were similar to that of croton oil. Dally Federal Union. We received last night, the Thursday j morning and first number of the Daily Federal Union. The Federal Union was mailed to sub- j scribers on Wednesday night-how it happens that the copies to the press ( came to hand so late we know not-but it may have been the fault of the mail, which only gets to and from Milledge •ville semi occasionally. Governor's Message. Our neighbor of the Dispatch, bad;an ''advance copy.” and it was >n his office here before the message was sent to the , legislature, and twenty-four hours be-. fore we received one from Milledgeville. But the Dispatch, when it received the message, seemed to be very much in the fix of the man who won an elephant at the raffle, "he did not know what to do J with it.” . „ It is true, that the editor of the Die patch, through the courtesy of Govern or Brown received a copy of the very first sheets of the message, priuted for the Executive Department, and he promptlv sent it to the "locum tenens With instruction not to set it up, as he would send two thousand copies by the first express, which would reach Augus ta before it conld he set up, even by all the offices of the city combined. The Federal Union, with whom he contracted f for the copies, failed to supply him, and ) consequently our readers were not sup-, plied with the message on Thursday, as, we expected. Had we known that our neighbor had no one at the Capitol to! furnish him with the message, we I should have promptly transferred our copy to him, as we had positive m cd it by next train, which would j sanctions not to set it up. As we expect-; have placed us a day in advance, we had no reason to act selfishly. Health ol Savannah. There were five deaths in Savannah j on yesterday-one from yellow fever. Newnpapc-rs Sold. J T. Taylor, of the North Georgia, Time* , has sold that establishment to A J Rogers, of Savannah. Friend Tay- M R is the indefatigable journalizing j Clerk in the House, at Milledgeville. N. C. Guernsey, Esq., lias sold the Family Visitor to Dr. Mif.re, Mr. Harrow, j and Mr. Gardner, his late foreman. , The Viator is our editorial Alma Mater, j and we wish all connected with it the, largest measure of success. Rev. j. H. Graves. Several of our Baptist friends have censured us for publishing an account of the trial of this gentleman, before a part of his church In Nashville, as fur- j nished us by our correspondent “Cum- h berland.” We have his assurance that he has furnished a fair statement of . the points of the trial. His hist letter | announced that Mr. Graves had been t received into the Assembly at Lebanon, l and sustained. We take no special m_ terest in the matter; save as a topic of information to our readers. We have , no knowledge of the details of the dis- ' Acuity, and no room for the several ‘ articles received, in reference to the matter. We have not done Mr. Graves ] injustice, and entertain no hostility to j him. - < Lease of the Suite Road. A proposition has been presented to the Governor, and will we learn he by him presented to the Legislature, to . lease the Western & Atlantic Railroad for the sum of $325,000 per annum.- The parties are most responsible gentle men, and among them are the names Dr Collins, Hiram B. Troutman, Esq , James Dean, Esq., Judge Holt, and oth- j' ers, chiefly of Macon and vicinity. We shall have something to say in opposition to this proposition, when we! get its details. Trustees of Franklin College. ; At the meeting of the Board of Trus |. tees of Franklin Coiloge in Millegeville, | Hon. F. S. Bartow, Hon. T. R R. Cobb, Hon. Thomas W. Thomas, were elect-,; ed Trustees to fill vacancies occasioned ;, by the resignation of Judge Wayne, j i Judge Hiliver, and Judge McDonald. Western A Atlantic Railroad. j We acknowledge the receipt of the ] report of the Superintendent aud Trea surer of the Western & Atlantic Rail- j! road. We hereby take occasion to ex press our regret that we were unable—! as we intended —to accept the polite I j invitation of the Superintendent to take, ( .un excursion over the Road last week. j j From what we saw in the summer, we; ] are satisfied that it is all right—and it’s will never he any other way under its present management. gif' The Montgomery Advertiser makes * favorable notice of King's Shingle Ma chine, now on exhibition at the Fair in i that city. ; I H'on.

MIEMSDOF.VII.EK, NOV. sth. SENATE. A resolution was introduced, asking ffi) days time tor Senators to report the State of education in their counties.— The motion was ruled out of order, as J tlie Senatus Academicus had not con- 1 veiled. At half past ten the Senatus Acadenn ciis met. Mr. Ward announced that a bill em bodying the views of His Excellency the Governor in reference to free schools, would be presented, and he offered a resolution that the bill he referred to; the General Assembly. Mr. Lewis read the bill, when it was referred. After discussion as to the time, and; I the propriety of attempting to get rc | ports from the counties, It was resolv ) t-d that the Senatus Academicus con-1 ■ vene on the 26th inst. to hear such re ports. Judge Lumpkin moved a resolution, that five persons be appointed by a bill j of the Legislature to act in place of the) Board of Visitors, to receive compensa tion for their expenses. On motion of Mr. Atkinson, the num ! her was changed to eight, to he com j | posed of one from each Congressional I District. The Senatus Academicus adjemrned to : the 26th. This resolution of Judge Lumpkin iis an important one. The Board of Vis- I itors as heretofore constituted has often been composed of men entirely unfit for the duties of an examining committee and their attendance has been uncer tain, and valuless for good to the insti tution. A message was received from the i Governor giving his reasons for with holding bis signature from thirteen hills passed at the last session, too late to be returned to that body. The hills were chiefly those incorporating new companies without holding the individ ual members thereof liable. Among the new matter introduced - was— ! A bill, by Atkinson of Camden, to alter the 11th section of the Constitu- I tion. The bill is as follows: Sec. 1— Be it enacted thatso;soon as this bill shall be passed by the General i Assembly, agreeable to the require ments of the constitution, all that part | of the 11th section of the Constitution of this State, embraced in the follow ; ing words—“ There shall he no future : ' importation of slaves iu this State from ■' Africa or any foreign place after the I first day of October next,”—he stricken . 1 out, and shall hereafter form no part of l the Constitution of Georgia. Senate adjourned to ten o’clock to morrow morning. Firday, sth, A. M. House. —The message was received from the Governor announcing his veto to nine bills passed la6t season, and his I reasons for the same. Among the new matter introduced was— A bill to allow parties to charge any ; , rate per cent , provided it be specified ( I in the note. | Bills like this have for years been ! defeated in the Legislature, and yet no i | good reason has been assigned for deny- j ing to money, as to every other coin j modity, its relative value. A bill, by Moore, of Clarke, to regu late and dispose of free persons oL ! color. By Westmoreland, a bill to incorpor ate Atlanta Medical College. Bills were read, to allow Sarah Bry ! an, of Lee, and Mrs. Annie S. Finn, of Richmond, to act as femme sole. By Lewis, of Hancock, a hill in refev ! ence to county records destroyed by j fire. By Mott, of Columbus, a hill to make i the subscription of the city of Colum-j | bus to the Mobile and Girard Railroad! | binding. Mr. Price reported a hill to regulate; the granting of divorces. Milledge reported a bill to appropri-: : ate money to the Medical College of Georgia. A resolution was passed and transmit ted to the Senate, providing that no. new matter be introduced into either 1 branch of the General Assembly after! tlie let day of December. A message was received from the Sen- j ate, accompanied witli a bill and a reso- ■ lution which had been reported to the | < Senate as the action of the Senatus I Academicus, and referred to the House: i as matter that should originate in that! i branch of the Assembly. i ( Mr. Hardeman moved to refer the ( matter to tlie committee on education, j ■ whereon a discussion arose on the rightj; of the Senate to present hills to the 1 consideration of the House. ; i Lewis, of Hancock, Hardeman and j Irwin, maintained that the matter was! from the Senatus Academicus, and not from the Senate, and that it was the only legitimate way to bring the mat-1 ter before the House. Keenan, of Baldwin, fagham, of 1 Troupe, Pickett, of Gilmer, Strickland i and others, maintained that the bill and resolution should not be received Irom the Senate, and that it was a vio lation of tlie rules of the rules of the House to allow it to be received. Some of the members ot the House, who take a warm interest in the educa- I tional affairs of the State, in this dis ; eussion termed the body lately in ses sion in the other House the Omdnnatws i Academicus. I Pending tlie discussion, tlie House ! adjourned to to-morrow morning, j It is proper to say that the House of ! Representatives is so crowded that I j have not been able to get a desk, in j compliance with the courtesy proposed j to tlie press by that body ; hence my notes from this branch are somewhat meagre, having to copy from the jour nals, after the House adjourns, or write an my hot! " Uncle Jessee,” the inde fatigable messenger, will, I know, do the very best he can—bnt, with all his largeness ofheart.be cannot enlarge tlie State House, which is getting to be a patent necessity Why is it, when there arc two mails a day from Milledgeville, that there is) but one to that point from Augusta. Negro Killed.- A difficulty occurred near Moscow, Miss., on the 10th inst. between two negroes, one the property of Mr. MeClary, and the other belong ing to Mr. Harris, in which the latter killed the former by striking him with a heavy piece of iron. The quarrel originated over a game of cards. Har ris’ boy killed McClary's because tlie latter refused to pay him fifteen cents which the former had won from him. —; Memphis Bulletin. The editor of tlie Holyoke Mirror saw the other day a bird, called by sports- 1 men a blue heron, which was shot upon the bank of tlie Connecticut River,uefir Smith's Ferry, and which measured • six feet across its wings from tip to < tip. 11 False Packing of Cotton. The New Orleans Crescent, of a late date, says : There is some talk of a great deal of false packing in cotton just now coming to light. The cotton to which we al lude in particular, was purchased here last spring. We have some facts and proof in our possession which we shall publish to-morrow. Possibly some, or many planters, who pretend they have been imposed on in the way of bagging and rope, (the outside apparently being all sound and merchantable, and tlie in side rotten, inferior and almost worth less. take this course as a kind of reta liation. As two wrongs do not make a ’ right, there cannot be any excuse for tlie false packing of cotton. Possibly 1 some planters who gin cotton for their poor neighbors (who are not possessed jof a gin and gin-house,) wet and plait the cotton in more ways than one, par ticularly where the labor is charged so i much per hundred. | .! Another Wheel-eakrow Man.— The Kansas City Journal of Commerce states t that A. O. McGrew, of Pittsburgh, Pa., J left Kansas City on the 16th, solitary i and alone, for Pike Peak digging, taking i ’ his provisions, blankets, pick and sho vel, gun and ammunition in a wheel ,|harrow! When he left Pittsburgh he had just five cents in money, and no j outfit save what he had on his back.— Pitkina, hardware dealer of Kansas ’ City, who has known McGrew for some .. years, filled his wheel-barrow with an , outfit, and McG. started on. his solitary) j pilgrimage of six hundred miles through an uninhabited country save witli In dians and buffalos, determined. to .fill 3 ! his single-wheeled coach with shinning j dust as soon as anybody. In passing a train, before reaching Westport, Me* ‘ Grew was offered a place in the com ; pany, but returned thanks for the prof ' sered kindness, adding that lie could not consistently accept the offer, as he was in great haste, and feared that lie i might be delayed, and perhaps caught in the snow, if he traveled with oxen. Letter from Mr. Clay. The “Western Farmers’ Almanac” for 1859, contains the following letter s from the Sage of Ashland, to one of 1 his namesakes, which has never before ' been published. It is eminently wor ■ thy of the great and good man who I penned it : Ashland, 7th July, 1845. ! My dear Hate Namesake.—Your parents I I have done me the honor to give my 5 i name to you. On that account, and at G the request of your good mother, I ad : dress this note, which she wishes to 1 preserve for your perusal, when, by the) ' lapse of time, you shall have attained j an age that will enable you to compre-, heud and appreciate its friendly pur -1 port. ! 1 Your parents entertain fond hopes of j 1 you, and you ought to strive not to dis-; appoint them. They wish you to he good, respected, eminent. You can re alize all their most sanguine hopes, if i you resolve to do, by judicious employ i ment of your time 'and your faculties. Shun bad company, and all dissipation, ; its inevitable consequence. Study, dili gently and perseveringly. Y’ou will be surprised at the ease with which you will master branches of knowledge, i which, on a first view, will frighten "you. Make honor, probity, truth, and i principle your invariable guide. Be | obedient, and always affectionately re ' spectful to your parents. Assiduously ( cultivate virtue and religion, the surest .) guarantee of happiness both here ami ■ hereafter. In your intercourse with ) your fellow beings be firm, but at the ' same time bland.courteous and obliging. Recognise, at all times, the paramount i tight of your country to your most de ’ voted services, whether she treats you | i iii or well, and never let selfish views '! or interests predominate over tlie duties ; of patriotism. By regulating yourself according to . these rules, you may become respected ; and great, be an ornament to your ! country, and a blessing to your parents, j That such may lie your destiny is the sincere wish of their and your friend. H. Clay. Master Henry Clay . New Y ork Kbrlion. [ The election in this city, yesterday, passed off, in most of the wards, with out any serious disturbance*. In some two or three wards, considerable feeling was manifested, and dining tlie day rows occurred, which for a time, threat ened to result in a general melee.— | Quiet, however, was restored, and the | voting, as a general thing, proceeded in t a peaceable manner. As we anticipated ’ tlie tlie vote was rather a light one. and ! tlie returns wilt show that a large num-; I her of our citizens did not go to the ] polls. In the city, the Democrats seem to! have doue much better Ilian they ex pected. The majority for their State) ; Ticket is a large one. As we write, the indications are they have elected their ) whole County Ticket ami a majority of i j the Congressmen. —New York Sun, 2nd i instant. The bnrque Chieftain, one of the fleet which sailed from Cleveland to Liver pool, not long since, and which came so near bringing the Atlantic Telegraph enterprise to a ruinous termination, by running too close to the Agamemnon lias arrived at Milwaukie, Wisconsin. Twenty six years ago tlie corner stone of a monument to Washington was laid with great ceremony in Philadelphia. Nothing has since been done, but now there is a prospect that tlie matter will be taken in hand and tlie monument completed. The Smyrna (Del.) Times gives an ac count of an election in that town, held by boys exclusively, which, that paper says, with regard to pulling, quarrel ing and cursing, was far ahead of the men’s election. Col. Preston, our new Minister to ■ Spain, was given a grand complimeuta j ry hall at Louisvile, Ky., on Friday | j night last. It came off at the Masonic Mall, aud attended by hundreds of the j ! leading citizens. The Cleveland Plaindealer has seen a letter from an intimate friend of Edwin Forrest, in which the report that ho in tends to retire from the stage is pro nounced a humbug. Dr. Franklin, speaking of education, says : “If a man empties his purse in to his head, no one can take it away from him. An investment in knowl edge always pays tlie best interest. A Salt Lake correspondent of the St. Louis Republican, alluding to thejcomet as seen at lliat place, speaks of it as be t ing "as read as sealing wax.” The canary-bird whicn was saved from tlie wreck of tlie ill-fated Central America, is dead. He has been stuffed and placed in a glass case for preserva tion. BY TELEGRAPH. Mortality In the Cltltt. New Orleans, Nov. 6.—The num ber of deaths by yellow fever yesterday was 19.

Now wo wish particularly to recommend to our readers, DR.
