AUGUSTA, GEO:
Monday Evening, Nov. 15, 1858.
Political Opinions In Massachusetts.
The Boston Courier says that, at a late
election in Massaebsetts, nearly one
half of the qualified editors of that
State did not vote. The Philadelphia
North American (Rep), considers it a cu
lioug circumstance that over one hun
dred thousand voters should have re
mained away from the polls,” and
thinks the fact indicates the existence
in Massachusetts of a conservative class
opposed to sectional agitation, that has
of late refrained even from voting. The
same paper says that the Rochester
speech of Mr. Seward must have lost
his party gome five thousand votes at
least, in Ntw York.
(Hf* We are pained to learn that Rev.
Dr. Alexander Means lies dangerously
ill at his residence in Oxford, and that
serious fears are entertained that lie
cannot recover.
nr The Philadelphia Lienmg Bulletin
Z rank Abolition paper pays our Stale
the following compliment :
“ And when she is tree, Georgia will
he in the very front rank of the confed
eration 1 She is great in spite of slavery
now 1”
Had the Bulletin said Georgia was
great on account of slavery, and would
stand in the front rank of the confede
ration if she had slaves'enough, he would
have madeta more philosophic remaik.

Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.
Mili.kdgevili.e, Ga., I
Saturday, November, 13 ’SB. j
Friend A .—Contrary to expectation
I did not get off last night, and as I re
main here through the day, I have con
cluded to tor your readers with [another
letter. I do this more cheerfully because
of a promise made you to write for the
Dispatch while here.
In the Senate another new county
Bill was passed to day—said county to
be named Hayne and to be formed of
the counties of Randolph and Stewart.
Upon the passage of this Bill a discus
sipn sprung up. Messrs. Bartlett and
Reynolds against, and Messrs. Guer
ry, and Tucker in favor of the bill,
participated. Hon. T. L. Guerry
in a few brief remarks convinced the
Senate of the utility of this bill. His
speech was indeed a mil turn in purvo. —1
There are few clearer heads than that
of the honorable Senator from Ran .
dolph. Ho speaks but seldom, but ,
when he speaks his remarks are con
fined to the question, and when he has 1
. . . |
finished his remarks he[cto.«*; a practice
which if generally pursued by Senators ,
would greatly subserve the best interests ;
of the State. Mr. Guerry is indeed a
-model Senator.
A bill to increase the Salary of So- 1
licitor Generals was discussed at length
—by Harris of Worth, Billups, Slaugh
ter and others, and finally laid upon
the table for the present. We are clear
ly of the opinion that some change is j
needed, so far as relates to the manner (
in which the salaries of those officers ;
are raised. Under the present arrange- i
ment our Solicitorsnot unfrcquently ob- I
tain true bills upon the slightest su6pi- *
cion of crime, with a view of not press- a
ring the bill upon the payment of a satis- s
factory fee. We do not say that all So- 6
licitors act thus—hut they are human 8
and money is tempting ! j,
In the House the Brunswick Railroad
Bill passed by a majority of three votes a
This bill lends the aid of the State to r<
such compauy. Thiß is one the most "
important bills of the session, and has j
had a hard fight to pass. Mr. Higham y
of Troup, fought the bill to the last,
with determination and ability. Its a
defense was principally confided to Mr.
Harris of Glynn, who delivered one of j :
the prettiest speeches we have heard, s
He maintained that a6 a Georgia raeas- h
ure this bill should pass. He contrast- 8
ed the present prosperous condition of t
Cherokee with her former position. He t
also sustained it as a Southern Rights a
measure and contended that inasmuch i 1
as the political heavens were anything j 0
but flattering to the peace and progress j
of the South, and it was necessary to j p
prepare for war before the cannon j t
slash of tlie enemy is seen. Some of h
the flights of the gentleman were in- *
deed eloquent. The gallery being crow
ded with the fair visitors at the capital, t;
the gallant Representative seemed to a
have been thereby inspired. We are no
State aid man. But we do think that £
Southern and S. W. Georgia should be g
considered entitled to at least a small $
moity of State aid. Mr. Findlay of n
Lumpkin county in response to the ap- 3
peal made by Mr. Harris upon Cherokee *
said that the “ Mountain Boys were );
Railroad men,” and he should be swift a
to fly to the rescue of Southern Georgia v
as her people had always responded to 1
Cherokee ; Cherokee would never prove *
ungrateful, he therefore voted aye.
Several distiuguished Georgians are i
here,among whom is Hon. Howell Cobb t
of Houston, the eminent compiler of 1
Cobb’s analysis and Forms. Old age j
seems to have dealt kindly with this
gentleman, and wo think that if lie ;
were a widower that his chances foi
remarrying would be more than fair. He 1
is an eminent man and having practis j
ediaw for a number of years, hats retir
ed to private life to repose with ease. \
being contented with the laurels which !
bedeck his brow. 1
I leave to night for my low country j
home where I expect to meet warm
hearts and b ight eyes ot wife and chil- c
dren, the thoughts of which inspire me
with joy. 1 shall return in some eight 8
or ten days, when I may be terupted to
continue this imperfect correspond

ttniledgevllle Correspondence.
Saturday Nov. 13, 18-58.
Senate. —The Senate met and was
called to order pursuant to adjournment
at 9 o’clock. On motion the hill to ap
point commissioners to run the line be
tween Early and Miller counties was re
considered and referred to special com
mittee of five, consisting of Messrs.
Bush, Collier, Tucker, Slaughter, and
Williams, of Terrell. On motion the
hill of the House to compensate the
Judges of the Courts, &c., was taken up
and read second time. The rules were
suspended and a bill was taken up to
allow the Ordinary of Gordon county to
sell the property of James E. Longstreet
—read 8d time and passed.
BILLS INTRODUCED.
Mr. Gholston, from the committee on
Penitentiary, offered a bill to appoint a
oommittec to ascertain a suitable place
for the building of a new Penitentiary.
Mr. Bloodworth of Pike, to authorize
the issuing of li fas for the collection of
fees.
Mr. Mallard, to alter and define the
raethed of incorporating companies,
changing names &c.
Mr Hays, for the protection of bona
fide settlers whereon improvements
have been made.
Mr Mounger, to alter the law in re
-1 gard to the issuing of writs of error &c.
Mr. Billups, to alter the law ill rc
| gard to the damages in the case of
j breach of warrants in the sale of slaves,
j Mr. Gibson—ln regard to Trustees
and for other purposes.
Mr. Webb—To allow Sheriffs to make
titles to property in certain cases.
Mr. Wothen- To repeal all laws ex
empting R. R. Co’s., Bank’s &c., from
taxation.
The following hill* were read and ac
ted on:
A bill to lay out and organize a new
county from Stewart and Randolph, to
bo called Hayne. Messrs. Reynolds,
Billups and Bartlett spoke against, and
Messrs. Guerry and Tucker in favor of
the bill. On the call of the yeas and
nays, the yeas were 57, and the nays 31.
So the bill was passed.
on 3d reading or bills.
A bill to increase the salaries of the
Solicitors of the State, which bill was
referred to the Judiciary Committee.—
It only raises thu salary from $225 to
SSOO.
Pending the discussion on this bill,
Gibson, of Richmond, spoke as follows : j
This hill, Mr. President, is of great!
importance to the criminal justice of the
State ; it increases the salary of an im
portant officer of our State. In some
sections the compensation is too small
to secure lawyers of sufficient ability,
to take charge of the criminal justice
of the State, and where it secures suffi
cient ability, it is too small compensa
tion for the services necessarily per
formed. The State, in nearly every
criminal case, has to compete with the
first lawyers in the State, and is it not
of the first importance to a proper en
forcement of our Tenal Code that gen- j
tlemen of ability and experience should l
represent the State ? And can you, gen-.
tlemen,expect to give up alucrative prac
tice in the defense of persons accused,for
the small pittance of two hundred and j
twenty-five dollars a year, much less
than they frequently obtain in a single:
case ? Does not crime now go unpun
ished in many points of the State, for
the single reason that this offices is on
ly sought for and held by the young
and inexperienced of the legal profes
sion ? Then is it uot of the greatest
importance to the peaceable, law-abid -
ing citizens of Georgia, that a •sufficient!
compensation should he attached to tnis
office, to secure the best talent and
greatest experience in the State ? The
sum now given will do but little more
than pay the necessary expenses in go- !
ing round the circuit; hence the office
is only used as an introduction to the j
practice of law, and as soon as experi-,
ence is acquired, they retire from the
office, that another may be trained, as
an attorney practicing on the criminal |
side of our courts, where our fees arei
somewhat cont’ng ent. As a Senator
«id citizen, laying aside personal con
iiderations, I feel hound to support this
sill if I can get no better.
The reporter would state that this is
in impel feet report of Judge Gibson's 1 '
■etnarks, but embodies the substance of;
.vhat he said.
A hill to define the liabilities of! :
Irawers of Checks, Draughts, &c.— M
on the table for the present. I'
A bill to incorporate the Fort Valiev 1
ind the Atlantic R. R. Co. Transmit- J <
ed to the proper committee.
A bill to simplify the Practice and
Pleading in the Justice Court in this:
state Mr. Gibson offered to amend, by j
inserting that no amendment should he,
allowed after the case was put to the!
Jury. Mr Paine oppose! the motion, he 1
was in favor of uniformity. Should
the Superior and Inferior Courts have'
advantages over the Inferior Courts ?
Mr. Gibson rejoined. He was in favor;
of amendments also, but if cases werel
permitted to be amended after the case|
itad gone to the Jury, cases would never, 1
terminate. Suppose he had a case in '
the Justices Court, and had dismissed!
bis witnesses &c.. if this law was pas-1
ted he would be delayed in the pay-1
oaent of his money.
Mr. Slaughter—but you could con
tinue your ease if your opponent should
un-aid,
Mr. Gibson—yes I suppose I could,
but shall I be compelled to come to
Court every time my debtor chooses to
amend. If he amends once I lose 30 .
lays ; besides the trouble of the wit- i
nesses &c. If he amends again, I lose
JO days more, the gentlemen put no
limit to this power of amendment.—
People were too apt to escape the pay
ment of their honest debts. With
intendment it would be a good law,
without, it does seem as if the Legisla-|
tore were endeavoring to assist debtors
to evade justice.
Mr. Paine wanted uniformity if the
gentleman desires to change the whole;
law of 1854 ; he might agree with him,
but he wanted uniformity; if the Supe
rior and Inferior Courts were allowed
rids privilege, the Justices Court ought
to have it too
The motion to amend was lost and 1
the original bill was passed.
A hill to give the Wells Valley Rail- j
road Company a form of order in this!
State. Some considerable debate arose'
on the bill. Some of the Senators
seemed to think that the Company 1
wanted Banking privileges, &c. On mo-!
tion to refer to the Judiciary Committee,
the yeas were 40 and the nays 59, so
the motiou was lost. The bill was then
referred to the Committee on Banks.
The Senate then ad journed until ten
o’clock Monday morning.
House:—-' Tne House met pursuant toj
adjournment.
The hill for the relief of John W.
Wilhite was reconsidered.
T here was a motion by Hall, of Pike, ;
to reconsider the loss of a resolution in
relation to the Superintendent of the]
Western & Atlantic railroad.
Bigham was in favor of the reconsid
eration.
Luffman opposed the resolution.
Mr. Milledge said, that he voted for
the resolution yesterday, and was sur
prised when it failed to pass. He in
tended to vote to day for a reconsidera
tion, and for the following reasons
which he would briefly state :
The resolution was couched in re
spectful language and it called on the
Executive foi information in regard to
previous management of the State Road
which it. was important the people
should have. Complaints of frauds,
speculation, mismanagement and favor
itism had been charged against those
, who had hitherto been entrusted with
the management of that property.
! Mr. M. said that the Governor’s mes
sage did not contain what wils wanted.
! The Governor had referred the General
> Assembly to the report made by the
special committee of the Senate to in
, vestigate the affairs of the road. The
Governor had not endorsed that report.
It was not communicated to us as being
a faithful and honest expression in his
, opinion of what it contained, and what
that committee had done.
(The gentleman from Troup said that
he was satisfied that the message did
not contain this information, and that
he would this morning vote to recon
sider.)
Mr. Milledge replied that he was glad
! to hear it, for in his opinion, it was one I
j of the most important measures that
| had been presented. The gentleman
from Murray had said that he was op-
I posed to the resolution—it was in his
! opinion a reflection cast on former ad
ministrations, and that the report of
the committee of the Senate had done
great injustice to some of the best men
of Georgia.
Mr. Luffman said, that lie had been
; told that the object of the resolution
' was to get Governor Brown to endorse
the report of the Senate Committee.
Mr. Milledge replied that as to the
idea of preventing the passage on the
ground that it would criminate or re
flect on others, that if there were any
who had been keeping hack from the j
people a knowledge of their past con
duct connected with this great State pro- j
petty, that should be known—l am for
exposing them. I want to have a thor- .
; ough cleaning out of the Augean stable.
It is high time that this whole matter ■
1 was probed to the bottom, and if there
was corruption still lying deep, covered,:
and this resolution can bring it out, I
I am for its passage, he the consequences j
what they may. and let a just verdict!
he given accordingly.
He had no knowledge of what infor
mation the passage of this resolution
would bring forth. But if, as the gen
tleman had said, the report had donej
injustice to honorable men, then he was!
for the passage of the resolution, in
order that these gentlemen might have 1
an opportunity for their defence. And
he was now in favor of it, in order if
the gentleman wanted to make that
issue to have either the endorsement or
the repudiation of tile Governor.
The Governor, in his opinion, would |
shrink from no responsibility, please or)
offend whoever it might. The Uovernot
had done Iris duty in regard to that j
road, for which lie had everywhere the;
approbation of the people. Therefore
let the resolution be reconsidered.
The motion to reconsider prevailed. \
The bill for the relief of John W. Wil
hite was taken up. Mintz spoke in fa
vor of tlie passage of the hill, as also
Lewis, of Hancock.
On motiou of Owens, of Mclntosh,
the bill was re-committed.
The bill was then passed.
The House resumed the consideration
of the hill to lend tlie credit of the
State to the Macon & Brunswick Rail- j l
road. ! ;
Harris, of Glynn, was in favor of -the
bill.
Bigham, of Troup, opposed it.
Walker, of Henry, spoke in favor of
the bill on the ground that it would
benefit his Soutliwestern neighbors.
Bigham concluded by offering an ;
amendment, leaving the subject of State -
Aid to the people at the next general •’
election.
Hardeman, of Bibb, hoped tlie amend- 1 1
ment would not be received. We are i i
representatives of the people. If we are j,
not disposed to take the responsibility! (
of passing bills, let 113 go home, resign j
our commissions and let them send oth
ers, The gentleman called it last win
ter a raft—uow he wishes the people to ,
vote raft or no raft. 1

ibe following statement for the beneflt ot the af
* i fljeted i
< I j was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
.' which apparently brought me to the brink ot
' the grave. Luring my sickness I was attended |
’ | by three physicians in our place, but received j
no help. I also tried the various remedies re- I
commended for such complaints, but they af
forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
- persuaded to try Wistar’s Balsam of Wild
. I Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored
e to better health than I have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
« as strictly true. Betsey Pkkrin.

sence oi I).*. A. Strong, oi Honesdale, who is well

1 notice editorially a patent medicine ; yet wc feel ;
jit a duty when wc are convinced nn article is |
i * very meritorious to inform the public, that they,
j too, may be benefitted by its use, and to prevent
| them from using other articles that havo no
, j merit in them.
, Now we wish particularly to recommend to •
' our readers, DR. SANFORD’S LIVER INVIGO-I
! | RATOR, as an article that has given benefit and
performed cures, in our circle of acquaintance, \
j that were little less than astonishing. It is par- 1
■! ticularly recommended for all diseases of the *
I j Liver, as it is a Liver Invigorator. Especially j
II among our own children have we noted its hen- j
5 j efleial effects, where the little sufferers, from :
1 : bowel complaint, worms and other diseases iu- j
j cident to children, have been made quiet and I
‘ I perfectly cured by the use of this article. It has •
l j testimonials that none can doubt, for the cure of j
* J Jaundice, Dyspepsia, and such troubles asal-j
r ways follow a deranged Liver. A few such cases
u have come under our observation, where it*
i j seemed almost to work miracles.
- j Our advice to families is not to be without it, i
. * as it will save many hours of pain by its speedy (
use when disease first makes its attack. —A la

Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING CGR
' DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
| life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
\ course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
’ iluid re acquires its solvent power, and thecrude
nutriment, which was a load and 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 w’ith vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that j
tcrribielassitudc which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain j
or disability arising from the uunaturalconditiou \
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo- j
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit!
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, j
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous I
organization.
Females who have tried it are unanimous ini
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that j
woman has ever received from the hards ol j
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir ba3 a direct, im-;
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite
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
appetiser it has no equal in the Pliarmacopia.
Iflongliie and the vigor necessary to its en
joyment arc desirable, this medicine is indeed ol
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
wifo, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn j
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de J
bility or from the weakness of a single organ j
willall find immcdiatcand permanent relief from j
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 malady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Let not even those despair»<wsTht-
