Our Milledgevillo correspondent given
us some incideutsof the burning of this
building, most of which we are com
pelled to omit. He says in conclusion :
“There arc some associations con

citizens of Milledgeville. 'Twnsinthis

A Suspicious Rumor.
The Memphis Appeal publishes n re
port derived from Mr. J. 8. Brooks and
Wm. Pauder, of Haywood county,
Tenn., that the body of Mr. J. W.
White, of Chattanooga—lately under
arrest for forging land warrants—had
been found about twelve miles from
Clarendon. These men did not see the
body, but were informed that the Coroner
had held an inquest over it, and return
ed a verdict of death from causes un
known. A watch chain, valuable let
ters and papers, with the name on his
clothing, all indicated unmistakably
that the deceused was Mr. J. W. WJutb.
The Chattanooga Advertiser of the 18th
says that Mr. Puillirs, the Post Master
of that city, has received a letter from
Clarendon, signed Wm. McWilliams,
confirming the death of Mr. White. —

dav was the day for him to appear
before the Federal Court, at Knoxville,

appropriated for the Utah campaign,
and the next largest for the Pacific de

Ellllbu-stei-lng In tin- Noi til.
We sec it stated that, while Walker
has a plan of emigration to the South,
there are Northern Fillibusters, who
have an active movement on foot, the
object of which is to separate the Brit
ish possessions in North Amcricufrom the
British Crown, erect them into a grand
federal union, and then annex them to
this country, iu order to over nwc and
overpower the South ; or, failing in
that, to sever the Union and annex the
New England and Northern States to
the Canadian federation. The New
York Herald says “the scheme has been
a long time on foot, and we have fre
quently received information of the
proceeding and movements of the con
trivers and plotters. But they have
made little progress until during the
(last year, w hen a laige number of our
Northern politicians have been drawn
into it, and the hopes of the Northern
fillibusters have revived. Several ac
tive agents iu the scheme are now iu
our city, where they have been for some
time consulting with and impressing
their views upon certain puliticalwire
pullers.

UF The local editor of the Buffalo
Republic, determined that tiie polit
ical writers should not have all the glo
i ry of inspiring the voters to action on
j Tuesday week, got up a rally on his
own account, which we do not doubt
i had its influence on the general result,
j Here it is :

v Tlie House of a Turkish Lady,
e The following description of a house
in Turkey, is from the pen of Mrs.
, Hirnhy:
“These room? were prettiest of all,
and looking out on the garden. They
j were hung with pale clue silk, instead
j of flowered chintz, like the other* : for
the lady inhabitant had been a present
from the Sultan, and etiquette demands
, that her apartments be better furnish
ed and adorned than all the rest. Her
bed room was charmingly fitted tip : a
[ Jeep alcove covered with rich Persian
carpets, filled with luxurious cushions.
, and embroidered coverlets, taking up
. one side of it. On the other side was
’ a light green and gold bedstead, cover -
. ed with gauze curtains. The toilet ta
! hie was extremely pretty, dressed with
muslin and lace, after a fashion ; a Per
. sian looking-glass, shaped like a sun
’ flower, in mother of pearl, hanging
above it. The ceiling was painted with
.| a trellis-work of birds and flowers.—
| Three steps led into the cool and shady
garden. Opposite the alcove were
doors: one led into a sitting room,
hung with the same blue silk, aud fur
nished with richly cushioned divaus ;
\ the other opened into a beautiful white
marble bath, the air still heavy with
I I steam and perfume.
Tile Wonders of Light.
Not only does light flv fromthegraud
I “ruler of the day,” with a velocity
which is a million and a half times great
i er than tlie speed of a cannon ball, but
i it darts from every reflecting surface
with alike velocity aud reachesthe ten--
( der structure of the eye so gently, that,
as it falls upon the little curtain of no-,
rves which is there spread to receive it,
: it imparts the most pleasing sensations,
■ l and tells its story of the outer world
with a minuteness of detail and a holi
:, ness of truth. Philosophers ouce sought I
■ to weigh the suubcam. They construc
ted a most delicate balance, and sud
j denly let in upon it a beam of light; the
; lever of the balonce was so delicately
hung that the fluttering of a fly would,
have disturbed it. Everything prepar-j
ed, the grave men took their places,"and!
with eyes watched the result. The sun
beam that was to decide the experiment
had left the sun eight minutes prior, to!
pass the ordeal. It had flown through;
ninety eight millions of miles of space
in that short measure of time and it
shot upon the balance with unabated
velocity. But the lever moved not. I
and the philosophers were mute.- Aeioi-J

flTCure of Diseased Liver.
—Uonesiuik Co., Penn., Jan. 10, 1850—Mr.
i Skth W. Fowl*—Sir : You are at liberty to use
the following statement for the beneflt of the af
flicted :
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink o!
the grave. During my sickness 1 was attended
by three physicians in our place, but received
' no help. I also tried the various remedies re
- commended for such complaints, but tlii-y af
l forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wistar's Balsam of Wild
! Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored
to better health than I have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
• as strictly true. Betsey Pkkkin.
• The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of I).-. A. Strong, of Honosdale, who is well
known in his vicinity as a successful praetiliouor.

(ITIt is not often that we
■ notice editorially a patent medicine ; vet we feel,
it a duty when we are convinced an article is
J very meritorious to inform the public, that they,:
too, may be benefitted by its use, and to prevent |
I; them from using other articles that have no j
merit in them.
Now we wish particularly to recommend to
. our readers, DR. SANFORD’S LIVER INVIGO
. RATOR, as an article that has given benefit and i
performed cures, in our circle of acquaintance, j
’ that were little less than astonishing. It is par- !
. ticularly recommended for all diseases of the J
, I.iver, as it is a Liver Invigorator. Especially j
among our own children have we noted its ben-1
- efleial effects, where the little sufferers, from!
‘ bowel complaint, worms and other diseases in-j
' cident to children, have been made quiet and ;
, perfectly cured by the use of this article. It has !
testimonials that none can doubt, for the cure of;
r Jaundice, Dyspepsia, and such troubles as a! !
ways follow a deranged Liver. A few such cases
have come under our observation, where it
j seemed almost to work miracles.
Our advice to families is not to be without it, j
as it will save many hour 3 of pain by its speedy
- use when disease first makes its attack —Ala

1 The Great P-r oblem
\ Solved I—DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR- j
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach ;
’ has lost the power of duly converting food into a
hfe-sustainirg element, is relieved by a single!
t course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric.
> fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
i nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
. the sufferer, while bis digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
; wLokaomerevolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
;l The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
ac-ite, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vagne ter
rors. wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, born'' down and dispirited by that
' terrible lassitude which proceeds from a luck of
• nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
• or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition
> of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
• tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
J organization. |
Females who have tried it are unanimous iu ;
- declaring the Elixir to be the greatest Loon that
; woman has ever received from the lur ds of I
, medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
’ j mediate and astonishing effect upon 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 ’
5 appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its en-'
joyment are desirable, thi3 medicine is indeed of
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either i
. sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing i
‘ j wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
• j man of business, the victim of nervous depres-j
sion, the individual suffering from general de 1
: bility or from the weakness ot a single organ!
will&ll find immediateaud permanent relief from j
■ the use of this incomparable remvator. Toi
i those who have a predisposition to paralysis it 1
- will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
. against that terrible malady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with thoir constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
, of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
t Elixir deals with disease as it exists, withoutre-
I ierence to the causes, and will not only remove
. the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
t stitution
