AUGUSTA, GEO:
Thursday Evening -Vov. 11, 1858.
Poor Seward.
Perilaps there is uot in the long list
of aspiring demagogues that afflict all
sections of the country, n morestriking
example of that “vaulting ambition,
which o’erleaps itself,” than is furnish
ed in the course of Wm. H. Seward.
For some years he has been regaided
the ablest, and most dangerous of the
enemies of the South, because, while
fce could rely on the co-operation and
support of almost the entire anti-slave
ry element, be had managed by his
conservative course to preserve a de
gree of respect from all classes. But
in his late speech—where he announced
that this Union must he all slave or all
free, he has so completely overshot the
mark, as to drive from his standard, all
save the fanatics, who are ready to over
ride all constitutional obligations in
their mad crusade against the institu
tions of the South. Seward is now al
lied with the abolitionists— which is en
ough of itself to blast his prospects in
his own section, and to disarm him of
any power for evil in or out of Congress.
Trade of Brazil.
A correspondent of the New York
Journal of Commerce, in an article upon
the subject, says that while Brazil is
one of the greatest consumers of com
mon cottons in the world, and the Uni- 1
ted States have no competition in this
respect, yet it appears from the Brazil
ian financial report of 1850, that of the
$14,100,800 worth of cotton manufac- J
tures imported into the empire that !
year, (the vast majority coarse fabrics,)
not more than two hundred thousand j
dollars worth were brought from the!
United States. Woolen goods and flour!
stand next on the list, and neither of j
these articles makes three millions of
dollars, though of flour we furnish j
nearly the whole which Brazil con-:
sumes. Hardware and wines comej
next, and it is believed we could fur- j
nish Brazil with all the hardware need j
ed, for the greater portion required is j
of a coarse quality. Yet such has been
the energy and forethought of the Eng
lish that, though some of our agricul- j
tural implements are exactly adapted to
Brazil, our British rivals have actually
sent to the United States for these arti
cles, have exported them to Bio in
British bottoms, and have sold them in
English houses. Indeed, the reports of
Brazilian trade show that in our exports
to Brazil, the United States are behind
every other principal nation, while, in
our imports, we are each year becom
ing more and more the debtor of Bra
zil. Last year we sold her five millions
of dollars worth of our products, while
she sold us twenty-one millions worth
of her staple articles of commerce.
This illustrates the necessity of regu
lar communication with that vast coun
try. There is no doubt but the United
States, with a regular line of steamers
plying to some part of the United
States—say Baltimore, which is the
most convenient point of shipment for
the combined staples of all sections—
we might build up a very profitable and
desirable trade with her.
Southern Pacitie Railroad.
The New Orleans Della says that the
contributions of Texas to this road are
on the the most bountful scale, and that
they are ready, and will be promptly
made. The English are preparing to
construct a railroad from Lake Superior
to Frazer’s river, and their enterprise is
awakening the attention of our own
people, and should warn our government
of the necessity of action, to prevent
being forestalled by a rival power for
commercial control on this continent.—
The Delia predicts that this railroad
will swell the population of Texas be
yound all previous precedent, and will
hasten the division of that Common
wealth into three, perhaps five, States.
A general meeting of the stockholders
of the Southern Pacific Bail road Com
pany, will be held at Louisville, Ken
tucky, on Thursday, the 25th inst.
Theatrical Notes.
Miss Kate Estelle— the Mrs. McKen
zie of dancing memory in Crisp's Geor
gia company, has opened the Baltimore
Muesum, and is attempting to play
Yankee Girls.
Mrs. Julia Dean Hatne, Edwin Booth,
the Durasd English opera troupe, and
Max Maretzek's Italian company, are
announced to star at Fleming’s theatre
during the next season in Savannah.
Maggie Mitchell opened at Wood's
theatre, Cincinnati, on Monday last,
producing anew farce just written for
her, called “Douglas and Lincoln.”
Mr. Marchant has been doing a fine
business at the Wilmington theatre.
Mr. Neafie left New York last week
for his regular southern tour. He be
gins at Savannah, thence to Mobile,
New Orleans, &c.
Frost In Charleston.
The Evening Heirs of yesterday even
ing, says the thermometer was down to
40 degrees yesterday morning, and a
general white frost was observable. —
That paper also states that absentees
and strangers may now come to Charles
ton with safety.
Sickness In Columbus.
The Columbus Enquirer notices the ap
pearance, on Battle Bow, one of the
purlieus of that city, of a few cases of a
virulent type of fever, resembling yel
low fever. The City Physician reports
that no danger of an epidemic need lie
apprehended. j
The cold weather, Bince his report
was made, has doubtless put a stop to!
the disease.

South Carolina State Fair—First Day.
♦ Columbia, S. C.. Nov. 9, 1858.
_ The day opened cloudy and cold,
with every prospect of a disagreeable
stoim, but about noon the sun shone
out warm and cloudless, causing the
~ Fair Grounds to become thronged with
t visitors, and rendering everybody in j
] good humor. The usual number of
r outside shows are lacking this season, i
and hut one tent is erected, in which
. the Bearded Woman and Swiss warbler
are exhibited. His Honor, Mayor Tread -
[ well, has wisely issued his proclamation
i in reference to gaming with cards, and
. gives notice that he will resort to the
[ extremest legal measures to prevent the
! practice within his jurisdiction, conse- j
ilquently the “keerds” are not seen !
! about as much as they might otherwise !
have been.
Within the Fair Grounds a good band j
| discourses music, to the edification of j
: j the assembled multitude. The general j
display of articles is rather below last
.! year’s, although, in some particulars,!
i; it is much superior. The display of
. j horses aud stock is very good andcred
. itable to the State. The number and
. character of agricultural implements
, and machinery, exhibits a marked im
f! provement over last year, the most im
| portant of which I shall make a note of
! in my next.
! The samples of stalk cotton are very
1 1 fine, showing an improvement in that
direction. J. PI. Wells, Columbia, ex
; liibits Dickson’s (Ga.) Improved Prolif- \
j ic, which attracts universal attention. \
j From a stalk, five feet high, Mr. Dick- j
son states he has picked 409 perfect
i boils. The stalks exhibited, give evi- j
I dence of an unusually prolific variety, j
j while the fibre will bear a very favora
j ble compariron with the best Long Sta- j
! pie, and should receive the serious at- |
J tention of cotton planters. Seed $5 >
! per bushel.
i J. A Kennedy, Columbia, shows anew !
! prolific cotton from the plantation of j
! Geo. Schley, near Augusta, Ga It ap
! pears quite as prolific as Dickson’s, hut j
\ the fibre, although very fine, and much I
! superior to the ordinary kinds, is not j
j quite equal to Dickson’s. Seed $1,25.
Both Irish and sweet potatoes are well i
! represented by samples from Mrs. Dr. j
Marshall, and Mrs. B. A. Griffin, of j
| Abbeville, and Mrs. J. W. Gibbes, of ! -
| Columbia. Mr Nunamaker, of Lexing- i
ton, South Carolinia, shows a basket of j,
red Spanisli sweet potatoes, one of which
measured 86 inches in length, and j;
many from 15 to 20 inches. 1 1
Mrs. Eliza Fenly, of Richland, exhib
its three specimens of pine-land pump
kins, very large and heavy. It would
he a gratification to the visitor often
times to know the weight of such large
pumpkins, squashes &e., while exhibit
i ors would at the same- time promote
the objects of display, if they would at
tach a card stating weights, time plant
ed, Sic.
Stultz & Brother, Henry county, Va.,
exhibit a keg of selected leaf, fine twist
Tobacco, which we pronounce superior
to any we have met with, and the effect
of our sampling it, w ill be that we shall j
discard all other brands in favor of this. ,
We will defy any one to “break off,” i
while the tobacco of the Messrs. Stultz ‘
is within reach.
The hotels are all filled to over-flow- '
ing, but many private houses are gen
erally thrown open, in the desire to ac
e commodate all who may come.

Senator Hammond.
i At a Jate public dinner in Barnwell *
, S. C., Senator Hammond denounced
the idea of re-opening the slave trade, ! j
which, in his opinion, could never be j (
accomplished, except by the dissolution 1 1
of the Union He believed it was the ! r
destiny of African slavery to extend i j
wherever climate and soil would war- j j
rant it. He insisted on the importance j I
of a route across the Isthmus to Cali
fornia, which the United States must j
take into their own hands, and by force, J
if necessary ; for we have the right to j:
take it. I
Senator Hammond is one of the few i
men who speaks their own sentiments, i
without regard to the interests of po- 1
litical parties, or to the clamor of pop- (
ular prejudice, and while we cannot 1 j
endorse all his views,iwe regard him a
faithful guardian of the interests and t
constitutional rights of the South.
Analysts of Spiritualism.
The celebrated “Spiritualist” Dr. 1
Randolph, has recanted, and according
to the New York Tribune, delivered a j
lecture in Utica, on Sunday before last i
in which he declares it as his candid j
opinion founded upon an experience of j 1
nine years as a medium, that Spiritul- ,
tsm was one third imposture, one third ,
insanity and one third diabolism. Mr.
Randolph declares that insanity is the 1
usual fate of trance mediums. He has 1
received and and accepted a call to tne i
Christian ministry. ! i

Solved!—DP.. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
! HAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
| has lost the power of duly converting food into a
i life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
, course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
' nutriment, which was a load anil a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created in the system,the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with.
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from aiackof|
j nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain i
1 or disability arising from the unnaturalcoudition |
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
! cry member with the source of sencation, mo-:
j tion and thought—derives immediate benefit!
j from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms,!
i invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
I organization.
! Females who have tried it are unanimous in
| declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
; woman has ever received from the hands of
medical men.
Morse's Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
i mediate and astonishing effectupon the appetite
j While it renews the strength of the digestive
powers it creates a desire for the solid material
which is to be subjected to their action. As an j
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
j If long lile and the vigor necessary to its en-1
i joyrnent are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
j precious worth
j Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
! sex or to any age. The 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
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willa.ll find iramediateand permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable ren -vntor. 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 their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond thereacb j
jof medicine. Let not even those despair. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re- j
| Jcrcnce to the causes, and will not only remove
i the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con-|
stitution , , j

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.

UrTit is not often that we
notice editorially a patent medicine ; yet we feel j
it a duty when we are convinced an article is
very meritorious to inform the public, that they,
too, may be benefitted by its use, and to prevent
them from using other articles that have no
merit in them.
Now we wish particularly to recommend to
our readers, DR. SANFORD’S LIVrR INVIGO-!
RATOR, as an article that has given benefit and j
performed cures, in our circle of acquaintance,
that were little less than astonishing. It is par
ticularly recommended for all diseases of the
Liver, as it is a Liver Invigorator. Especially
among our own children have we noted its ben
eficial effects, whero the little sufferers, from
bowel complaint, worms and other Diseases in
cident to children, have been made quiet and
perfectly cured by the use of this article. It has
testimonials that none can doubt, for tfie cure of
Jaundice, Dyspepsia, and such troubles as al
ways follow a deranged Liver A few such cases
have come under our observation, where it
seemed almost to work miracles.
Our advice to families is not to be without it,
as it will save many hours of paiD by its speedy
use when disease first makes its attack —Ala
