dterdng f ; Al’fil'STA, GKO : J Wednesday K veiling, Dec. 1,1558. j Medical College*. The loss of she bill to appropriate J money to the Medical College of Geor gia, we noted some days ago. We can- o not refrain from expressing surprise T at its defeat. Had the State refused all applications for similar aid, we should , nothaveawordtosay, for we are op- j posed to the general principle of State s Aid to private enterprises. But after the recent endowments for Savannah, Macon and Atlanta Medical Colleges, it certainly looks niggardly to refuse the pioneer’of them all, the aid desired.! l It is true, there are too many medical [ ( colleges in the State, and doctors will c soon be almost as plenty as patients , hut the State is acting in very bad faith , to charter and foster new rival colleges, f while she leaves the old institutions, possessing superior facilities for useful ness to languish for want of assistance. We are pleased to learn that the Georgia Medical College is, at this time, r enjoying an unsual degree of prosperi- i; ty, having one hundred and fifty pu- t pils; but it has also a large board of ® professors, and it is obliged to incur very heavy expenses, and can, with dis- c ficulty, save anything to pay the debt i that hangs over it without aid from C some source outside its income. g g Indians In Texas. We learn from the Texas Gazette that ( depredations upon the frontiers by In- c dians, have become very frequent lat terly. A family of the name of Jack- j sou were killed a short time ago. . We ‘ see it stated that business is entirely g suspended in Lampasas. Gen. Twiggs j is doingall he can for the protection of a the frontier. Gov. Runnels has order- t ed out a company of Rangers, and we I suppose quiet will soon be restored up on the bortleas. t — .*.• Arrest of Two Rabbi. Three Israelites named Presac Rosen- , thal, Abram Joseph Asch and Moses Le- i vy, of New York city, were lately ar» 1 rested as agents of the Prussian, Ham- ( burgh and Saxony Lotteries, and held , to bail each of them in the sum SI,OOO t to appear at the General Sessions. Asch and Rosenthal are both Rabbi, Asch be 1 ing general Lottery Agent in this coun try. He was arrested while teaching in the Synagogue. Mbs. Sigourney's Last Poem.—Mrs. L. H. Sigonrney of Hartford, furnished fifty families of that city with turkeys or fowls, and pumpkin pies, of the best quality, too, for a Thanksgiving din ner. Vessels arrived at Pensacola from Mobile, report having been boarded off Mobile by a Government vessel, cruis ing off that port, for the purpose of ar resting fillibustering expeditions. JIT Hon. Henry Bedinger, Ex-Minis ter to Denmark, and formerly a mem ber of Congress died very suddenly at his residence in Shepcrdstown on Fri day last. fivP Hon. Jonathan Knight an ex member of Congress, died in Washing ton county, Pa., on Monday last. Jf?” A bill has been introduced into the North Carolina Legislature to re peal the clause of the Constitution which prohibits Jews from holding of fice. A move in the right direction. gfP Thomas Govern and Thomas Campbell are sentenced to be hung at Pickens Court House, S. C., on the Hist of December. - Poeilorliymlc So. a. Dear Dispatch A jesamine and a grape vine grew under and wound them selves round an oak tree. It was really pleasant to see how well they harmon ized, till a misunderstanding sprung up between them ; then commenced and was kept up a continual broil. The grape complained that it could not grow, because the tendrils of the jesa mine were in its way; while the jesa mine urged that the leaves of the grape , vine were smothering it to death. The oak becoming tired of these incessant bickerings, told them very plainly that if they did not cease, be would with- draw his support, and let them trail on theground like yonder melon vine. This touched their pride—they could not come down to so low a level—they im plored the oak's forgiveness, and ever after lived as friends. How often do we witness the same thing in society?— Some people can talk very loudly, so long as they have office or affluence for their support, but threaten to withdraw this, and they are very soon made to , know their place. , HP Late discoveries in Pathology j show that very many of the diseases which afflict mankind arise from im- < purity of the blood. This has long ' been suspected hut is only lately known, j In consumption, tubercles arc found to . be a sedimentary deposite from the l blood. Dropsy, Gout, Cancer, Ulcers 1 and Eruptions, all arise in disordered j' deposites from tbe blood. Billious dis.| eases and fevers are caused solely by its i deranged unhealthy state, and even the decline of life follows a. want of vitality in the blood. In view of these facts Dr. 1 Ater designed his Cathartic Fill espe- , cially to purify and invigorate the blood, and hence we believe to arise its 1 uparalelled success in controlling and curing disease.— Medical Journal. er Messrs. John L. Addison, P. D.! Bowles, Loudon Butler and Wm J. Ready, from Edgefield District, S. C., l were licensed and enrolled as Attorneys, at the recent session of the Court of Appeals at Columbia, S.

Mllledgevllle Correspondence. TYesday, Nov. 30, 1858, t 9 1-2 o'clock, A. M. \ Senate.— After the usual prelimina ries, Mr. Shropshire, of Chattooga, , moved to reconsider the loss of a bill ' to reduce the number of the members of the Legislature. The motion to re consider was lost, ayes 63, nays 59. Mr. Young, of Union, moved to re consider the loss of a bill to layout a 1 new county from Fannin, Union and I Gilmer. He told the Senate that if they regarded the welfare of the Trea saw, pass this bill; for he would, every : session, until the hill passed, present application after application, and peti tion after petition.. The. motion to re consider was lost by ayes 42, nays 59. The rules were then suspended to take 1 up a bill to pay Thomas Highsmith, of the county of Cobb, for damages re ceived whilst in the service of the State as fireman on the Western & Atlantic Railroad, the sum of s3,ooo—which is a very moderate demand, considering that lie lost a leg and an eye. The bill passed by a vote of 91 ayes to 18 nays. . We made a mistake as to the time limited in which to introduce new mat- ' tei, it was December let. NEW MATTER.

A memorial i was then called up to be read, it was if from some of the citizens of Coweta i e and Troup counties. Great opposition 11 was raised to the reading of the memo rial. , Pending the discussion the Senate adjourned until 3 o'clock, P. M. These o'clock, P. M.—The Senate was called to order and Mr. Slaughter , of Dougherty withdrew his opposition to the reading of the memorial. After the memorial was read, which was signed by the following gentlemen : Andrew J. Perry, John Ray, John E. Robinson, John Jr? Thomas, W. Jl. Wil- ] kiuson, John E Conyers. I Mr. Colquitt of Muscogee, then asked ( the Senate to allow a communication from John A. Jones, Esq., in reply to to the Constitutionalist in reference to the Supreme Court, (you have seen it,) to he read as a memorial also. Some debate arose on the motion to have the communication read. Judge Gibson op posed its reading unless the Senate would permit the article in the Constitu- I tionahst, in reply to which the comtnuni j cation was written, to be read also.— | The communication was nevertheless I read. Mr, Wileoxon of Coweta, moved :to have TSO copies printed for the use lof the Senate; On the motion Mr. ! Tucker of Stuart opposed the motion ! With all of his power and eloquence.— j He thought that the bill intended to ] [ cast reflections on a member of the Su | preme Court. He closed with this remark—l have known Henry L. Benning for 14 years and I can say from my own knowledge 1 that a nobler man God never let breathe the breath of life! Mr. Thomas fol lowed. He only wantedit printed as an act of justice to those accused. Mr: Slaughter of Dougherty, was opposed to this manner of giving those gentlemen the stab of Joab without their having the least chance of defending them selves. If the motion was to print and to refer to the House of Represen tatives for an impeachment, we will j all vote for it. But not to bring up 1 only one side in this manner.

Mouse. —The day was spent in discus sing the Educational bill. No definite action was taken. Stuck IfnUlng 111 Texas. The San Antonio Texan gives its rea ders an interesting article on this sub ject, from which we copy the follow ing : “By stock raising we include the rais ing of cattle, horses, mules, sheep and Tioga; and, really, it would be very hard Ito say which would be most profitable, iWe have now in our recollection an in stance of a person in our city, who, [some years ago, commenced raising 'mules from twenty or thirty mares, | worth probably altogether from SBOO to SI2OO. He has now, from the in !crease and exchanges therefrom, over! one hundred mules that will average j in market here over SIOO per head, be sides many young mules and horses. Land, unimproved, can be had here : for forty cents and upward per acre, j land land too that is suitable for stock j raising. Improved ranches range from |sl to $lO per acre, and any quantity 'can be purchased for a small amount in advance, with no other security than a .lean upon the land for the balance,with j a credit of one to five years or longer. | Large numbers have paid for their . ranches in a few years, and almost en . i tirely by stock raising, as it requires so . little capital to begin with. In fact the only danger there is in this business, is ifrom the straying off of stock, and a 1 |dry season; the former difficulty is f easily prevented by attending to them, t and the other liy driving the stock to , other localities, and at but little ex- I pense. Stock require little or no sod . der here, from the fact that we have no . winter weather. Perhaps there may be • half a dozen northers during the win ter, comprising some two weeks, when stock seek shelter in the lea of hills or timber. As regards hogs and hog raising, this i branch of agriculture is just commenc ing here and is rapidly on the increase, j Pork finds a ready market at from.six | to ten dollars per hundred, j The same advantages might be men tioned of sheep raising, poultry, Ac.— j iTurkies find a ready market at from 40 to 75 cents apiece; chickens from 20 to 40, and eggs from 15 to 30 cents per I dozen. Corn is raised here with but little la-1 bor, and we have a very extensive range of mast—for example, we hear of many ! persons in the country at this very : time, who are making from three to I ten dollars a day gathering pecans; and thousands of bushels will rot on the ground. A Young Man’* (ounr. I saw him first at a social party. He I took but a single glass of wine and that in compliance with the request of a young lady with whom he conversed. I saw him next, when he supposed lie was unseen taking a glass to satisfy the slight desire formed by his social indul gence. He thought them was no dang er. | I saw him again with those of his ! own age meeting at night, to spend a .short time ill convivial pleasure. He said it was only innocent amusement. I saw him next late in the evening, in the street unable to reach home. I assisted him thither. He looked ashamed when we next met. j I saw him reeling in the street. A I [confused stare was on his countenance, ' i and words of blasphemy were on his I [tongue. Shame was gone 1 I saw him yet once more. He was [pale, cold, motionless, and was carried |by his friends to his last resting place. lln the small procession that followed, (every head was cast down, and seemed to shake their uncommon anguish, i His father's gray hairs were going [down to the grave in sorrow. His: mother wept to think that she had giv-1 eu birth to such a child. An acquaintance of ours says that since he dismissed his handsome doctor and employed a plain one, his wife and daughters haven't got 6iek half so of ten as they did before. Execution. —William H. Hews, con victed of the murder of McKeever, ex piated his crime upon the gallows at Jacinto, Mississpbi, on the 19th instant, in the presence of about three thousand persons. He attributed his ignomin ious death, in a great degree, to the fact that in early lifahe was a boy. He said he was an instance of what bad boys come to. let the fast boys of the day take warning. Arrest or James Gordon Bennett.— The Editor of toe New York Hearld was arrested Friday morning, on an indict ment found against him, Thursday, by the grand jury of Westchester county, for an alleged libel published in that paper, in June last, on Hon. John B. Haskin, charging that gentleman with having forged the records of the Wil- j lett'B Point committee, of which he was Chairman. BY TELIKiIiAPH. T!u* Grand Jury lit the Hnitlee Case. .

New .York. Nov. 30.—The Cotton j market was quiet to-day, with sales of 1,000 hales, at rather easier prices: quo- 1 i tations, however, remain unchanged.— ' : The market for Flour was heavy, with i sales of 7,000 barrels; State brands were unchanged, and arc quoted at $5 . 20 ass4o ; Ohio $5 30 a So 50; and Southern at $5 15 t« $5 50. Wheat ’) *as very drill, and Southern Red quo ted at SI 20, and White at $1 25 a $1 1 45. Corn was heavy; sales 41,000 bushels; Mixed quoted from 74 to 75c. 1 1 1 per bushel. Spirits of Turpentine was ; | steady at 47 a4B 1-2 cents. Rosin was firm, and Rice steady. Railroads In TeXM \ The Houston Telegraph publishes an 1 article on the present condition of Tex as railroads from which we gather the following : The Memphis, El Paso and Pacific | road has 25 miles under the contract, : , of which 12 is graded in Bowie county. The Southern Pacific road has 20 1 miles finished, and 7 more graded, but ’ is now in a very unfortunate condi tion, having been sold under a deed of trust. The San Antonio and Mexican Gulf road has 5 miles finished and 20 more 1 graded, for which the iron has been pur chased. The Houston and Texas Central road has 50 miles completed and 10 more '' graded, and 32 1-2 nines beyond the 50 mile station under contract. The Buffalo Rayon, Brazosand Colora do road has 35 miles finished and 25 more graded. The Sugar road has 7 miles in opera : | tion and 43 more graded. I The Galveston, Houston and Hender -1 j son road has 25 miles completed, and jl7 more under contract, to be comple ted in three months. I The Texas and New Orleans read has j G miles graded, and the whole distance 05 miles, under conditional, and 25 un j der absolute contract. The Washington County road lias 4 miles graded, and 20 miles under con j tract. To recapitulate—there are 142 miles lof rail road finished ; 273 graded, and . 07 1-2 under contract. .. Seven Fools.

During my sickness I wa3 attended. ' by three physicians in our place, but received no help. I also tried the various remedies re -1 commended for such complaints, but they as • fttrded me no relief. As a last resort, I was persuaded to try Wislar's Jialsam of Wild • Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored • to better health than I have enjoyed before for ton years. This statement may be relied upon ’ as strictly true. Betsey Pkrrix. The above certificate was given in the pre sence of Dr. A.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR- 1 DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach has lost the power of duly converting food into a j life-sustaining element, is relieved bv a single course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric j fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to | . the sufferer, while his digestive organization was j j paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the •) wholesome revolution created in the system, the | j basis of activity, strength and health. * The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the ; j acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux j .' or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter- i rors. wakened by periodical fits, threatened with ! paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that j terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack ol j nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain I or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition | j of the wonderful machinery which connect? cv ; ery member with the source of sensation, mo- j tion and thought—derives immediate benefit ! , from the use of this Cordial, which at oncecalms. | invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous ; j organization. j Females who have tried it are unanimous in | declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that j 1 woman has ever received from the ha 1 ds ol j I medical men. j Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has 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 1 1 which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. If long life ami the vigor necessary to its en joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of j precious worth , It? beneficial effects are not confined to either , sex or to any age. The feeple 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 willail find immediate and permanent relief from • the use of this incomparable renovator. To i those who have a predisposition to paralysis it I will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard : 5 against that terrible malady. There are many perhaps who have so trifled with their ccnstitu-! tion that they think themselves beyond the reach > of medicine. Let not even those despair. The 1 Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re erence to the causes, and will not only remove > the di-:order itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil-, ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de-, s ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys • pepsia, general prostration, irritability, ner;ous ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation ol the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from whatever cau-e arising, it is, if there is any reli -1 ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly infallible.
