1' ■ <£btrcbtg Dispatch. AUGUSTA, GEO: Thursday Evening, Dec. 3, ISSS. New Orleans Weekly Mirror. We have received a new sn< * inu some weekly of the abovo title, atu cheerfully place it on our exchange list. It appears to be devoted to news, com mercial affairs and polite letters The number before us contains several well written articles by Madame \. Wilhel jtoE Vernon— formerly Mrs. McCord, of this city. We wish the enterprise success. - John W. White—A Hoax. The Southern Representative , at Chatta nooga, discredits the death of this gen tleman, as reported, and says that White’s own brother and an old friend, who went to the spot where the body was buried, were satisfied that it was not the body of White though the corpse had on his clothes. The post master at Chattanooga has received let ters from several parties, confirming the statement of the Memphis paper, some of which are pronounced to be in White's hand writing. The above pa per says the recognizance of $25,000 will be paid. The First Shad. The editor of the Columbus Corner Stone says that by invitation of Jack Smith, Esq., one of the original Smiths, he helped to discuss the first shad, in Columbus, on Saturday last. How is it that Columbus or Macon, always get the “first shad" in advance of any oth er points ? Perhaps they have any easy way es washing ’em down, and the shad “kinder like it”—or maybe the fisherman can impose a spurious article on them easier thansomeof their neigh bors, who are situate in a fine shad country. A Fnnny Race. The Recorder says that the raciest foot 1 race of the season came off in Miiledge- [ ville a few days ago between Mr. Abram Foard and Major Mark Hcson, two of , our old and staid citizens, and who are not altogether young men. As they are bachelors we won’t give their ages.— : Mr. Ford gave the banter for the race, and gave Maj. H. ten yards start, though Mr. F. is the oldest man of the two— sloo sweepstakes. ' The show was rich and Maj. H. would have been the win ner, if, unfortunately he had not fallen when within a few yards of the Judge’s stand. M»>. Tile Home Journal. Messrs. Morris and Willis are again out with the annual promise of what their journal is to be the coming year. Besides its standard features, the racy editorials of Morris, and his co-editor Willis, and the always well made up miscellaneous department, a lady con tributor, who is described as a gifted writer, is to furnish a serial romance, called “Two Ways to Wedlock,” the scene of which is laid in New York ; an eminent Southern author is to follow, with “A Tale of the South,” to be call ed “The Avenger;” and “a daughter of the West” is to contribute “The Young Wife's Diary,” of which the editors speak in the most eulogistic terms.— They are fully warranted in calling the Home Journal a good and cheap family newspaper, and we do not see how any family that has a taste for reading can hesitate sending them the two dollars, which will secure its transmission for a whole year. So says an exchange, and so S3y we. Spain and Mexico. If, as alleged a few days since, our Government has demanded explana tious from Spain as to her Mexican in tentions, the movement has not been a moment too soon. Every day the threat of Spanish hostility assumes more serious aspect. Late European advices show that the subject is surrounding itself with com plications of a most alarming charac ter. Spain is looking for support and countenance to France and England.— France openly sympathizes and increas es her fleet. England thinks while others are “going in,” she must take her slice. Altogether they think that a dead man is Mexico, and his estate must be administered at once. The Petersburg Press justly remarks that from appearances the European powers are resolved to disregard alto gether the claims of the United States 1 to supremacy in the West, and do not half believe that any serious step would he taken on our part to dispute their j equality. Spain of herself would as soon think of any other act of rashness i as to provoke hostilities with this coun- J try, unless she felt herself secure in the sympathy of the greater powers.— Backed, however, by the assurance of t support, there is nothing she would sooner do than to have the fillibuster ing Yankees soundly thrashed —an ope- * J ration she no doubt thinks easy enough, t with the fleets and armies of the French i and British. It seems to us that the time has about a 1 rived, for us to make serious work (of the solemn declaration we have so fre quently made in the face of the world, that European interference on this con tinent will not be permitted. If ever it is to have practical meaning, we art strong enough to maintain it now ; and the question can never arise under cir cumstances more completely covering all our pretensions thau now. w There is to be a great Railroad, convention of the Presidents, officers and stockholders of Railroads interest ed. at Memphis,on Monday January 24, 1859, to devise the best plan and route for a Railroad to the Pacific. Fraber River. —The but accounts from Fraser River, as regards gold,! seem to be better. A shipment of over j 900 ounces of gold to San Francisco had j been made. The weather, however,was; unfavorable. A great deal of snow had fallen, and to make matters worse, pro visions were very scarce. Potatoes were selling at 75 cents per pound. The Fra ser diggings are attracting attention in Australia, and a line of clipper ships has been formed to run from Melbourne to Vancouver's Island. grp The Corner Stone says that it is reported tliac Dr. Jeter, lately appoint ed Post Master in Columbus paid Mr. Forsyth to resign aud secure the office for him. gsj” Mr. J. W. Sheehan, editor of the S Chicago Times is preparing a life of Sen tor Douglas. Mlllcdgcville Correspondence. Wednesday, Nov. Ist. Senate. —After the usual prelimnaries, Mr. Shropshire of Chattoooga moved to expunge from the Journal a certain memorial from certain citizens of Cow eta, Troup and Muscogee. Senators seemed to touch the subject with gloves on. No long speeches were made, all seemed to dislike to put their names to the Ayes and Nays. The point of order was raised as to whether the Senate had the power to expunge anything from their Journal. The chair decided that such action might be taken. Mr. Shropshire of Chattooga, (after Mr. Strickland of Forsyth, had appeal ed from the decision of the chair) said—This Senate has expunged from its record ail that part of the Journal in reference to the Yazoo Fraud. Mr. Slaughter of Dougherty idso said— when the Senate of the U. S. had pass ed a set of resolutions censuring Gen. Andrew Jackson, then (President) for the removal of the deposits of the U: S., the Honorable Thomas Hart Benton, introduced a resolution to expunge from the Journal all record of their passage, consequently the Senate has the power to expunge. Mr. Whitaker of Fulton, said these two cases are not at all applicable. In these too cases the Journal was expung ed by solemn acts of the Congress and of the Legislature. Years were expen ded in their efforts to expunge, the Yeas were 47, the Nays were 67—the chair was overruled. Mr. Cooper of Scriven, moved to take up the resolutions introduced by him self on yesterday, advising and request ing Judge Benning and McDonald to resign forthwirh. Mr. Cooper, of Scriven, addressed the House with a force and power that made the friends of the Supreme Court tremble. He is a man who seldom speaks, but, if we may judge from this effort, when he does speak, he is lis tened to with great attention. He announced to the Senate that he had introduced the resolutions because be was opposed to abolishing the Court. If the Court is not thoroughly re-organ ized, bis constituents, yes the whole State,.demands its abolition. Mr Colquitt, of Muscogee, referred Senators to the Supreme Court of ttie I'nited States. The Judges had there i made a decision that was anything but popular. Should they lie called on to resign ? Why, sir, said he, if you in stitute this principle you destroy the very use of the Court. He closed with a tribute to the Hon. H. S. Benning. Mr. Gibson, of Richmond, opposed the resolution. He thought that the place to present these gentlemen was before the House of Representatives.— He thought it beneath the dignity of the Senate to entertain such a resolu tion. He said that action on this bill would place the Senate in the same po sition as that of the man who asked a little boy which way it was to Pine ville. The hoy said: “Stranger you can go down this road. When you come to another, turn to the left, and that will bring you to a creek. Go down that creek anil you will come to a pop lar tree.” Stranger—“ Well, sonny, what next.” Sonnv—“lf you wouldn’t be lost I bo d-d.” (Mr. G. then begged the pardon of the Senate for the use of the term.) Sir, if we follow this winding path, we will, most assuredly, be lost. Mr. Billups, of Morgan, thought that the best manner to teach dignity was by example and not by precept. The gentleman from Richmond should first observe that dignity himself and not use such language. The Senate then adjourned until three | o'clock, P. M. Three O’clock, P. M.—The Senate did little of interest this evening, ex cept to agree to a resolution to adjourn on the lltii inst. The consideration of the resolution i under consideration in the morning was i postponed until some future time. BILLS, &C., ON PASSAGE. A resolution to meet in the evening at 7 P. M., and adjourn at 9 P. M.— passed. A resolution to adjourn on the 11th inst.—passed. To appoint the times of holding the ' Superior Courts of the Middle Circuit laid on the table for the present. A great many local bills were passed. The Senate adjourned until 7 o'clock, P. M. House. —This being the last day for the | introduction of new matter under “the j Resolutions adopted to that effect, the first business was the call of new coun ties. We omit most of the bills read Ist time.—Ed. Mr. Fuller—A resolution to adjourn j sinethe on Saturday the 11th inst. A: motion to strike out Saturday and in sert Monday the 13th—was lost. On j the original question, the Ayes were 103, and Nays 28, the Resolution was j immediately transmitted to the Senate. I Mr. Miiledge of Richmond—To pre- ■ uuncugc in iiibijiuuuu —id jnc- | vent Banks in other States from carry ing on business in this State, directiy or indirectly. Also—To alter and amend the chart er of tlie City of Augusta. To prevent the sale of Brownlow and Prine’s discussions on slavery in this State. A motion was made to take up a bill for third reading. To provide for a Codification of the laws of Georgia, the rules were suspen-1 ded, the bill was passed and transmit ted to the Senate forthwith. Mr. Cannon of Wayne, offered of Res- , olution that from aud after to-day no bill be taken up out of its order, was adopted. Tlie Bill to provide for the Educa-1 tional Interests of the State was taken up, amended, and passed, Ayes 124, , Nays 19.

I To the Cotton Grower* of Georgia, and their Representatives at Miiledge ville. , The iron products of Pennsylvania ' are annually 522,0000,000. This employs a capital of $5,000,000. 1 It also gives employment and subsis s | tence to 5,000 working men and as many > i more women and children. '! The cotton crop of Georgia i£ cstima ! ted at $25,000,000. The capital employed in cotton ma “ j king in Georgia, estimating 4 bales per "'band, and SlO per acre for the land, . | and other things in proportion, is $50,- 3 000,000 for land, stock, &c., 560,000,000 for negroes, making $110,000,000. This employs 125,000 negroes, besides , owners, overseers, &c. The iron crop of Pennsylvania, annu ally employing a capital of $5,000,000, and 5,000 men to work it, is nearly equal to the entire crop of cotton in Georgia; employing a capita! of sllO,- 000,000 and 125,000 hands. . Cherokee Georgia lias iron resources I equal to Pennsylvania and physical re i sources to develope them. If devel • oped, Cherokee Georgia would make products nearly equal in value to the ■ cotton products of the State. ' Without a railroad, it cannot he de veloped. The difference to Georgia would be millions of iron products be > sides those of the farm, the orchard, 1 the garden and the dairy, for export, where she now imports, and pays for out i of her cotton crop. The statesman who would anticipate the grand spectacle, may sum up the items, fill out the p>'c ■ ture, and gaze with admiration. 1 The difference to the Western & At i iantic Railroad, would be, the addition ‘ of freights from a railroad traversing this iron region of Etowah Valley, equal to all the way stations besides put tegether. This is true, because four miles of this road, just completed, now ' puts on and receives from the State I Road, more freights than is at any other | depot, and as much as ten of the smal- j i ; ler depots put together. (See Dr. Lew is’ Report.) Georgia now imports millions of dol j lars worth of iron and iron products ; '! millions also of products of the farm, 1 j orchard, garden and dairy. The cotton • pays for it. I Make the iron, steel, &c., at home, as may be done, and she saves millions for • I investment instead of spending it. She ‘ adds to her taxable resources, instead |of paying tribute to others. She in- j 1 j creases her population, and retains men 1 I who would leave her. She multiplies strong arms and stout heartsfor her de- j 1 jfense, instead of feeding and enriching [ ; those who habitually abuse and revile 1 her. j Without this policy, what has she in i | prospect but wornout soil and decaying | institutions ? Where are her means of ' | defense ? They are in cotton bales and I negroes. Their luugs and their tongues j—they are in pen, Ink and paper. ' | What is her resort but submission un • j conditional ? What nation or people ■ lever did otherwise tliaa submit, who - ] were fed and clothed by others, and 31 were even dependant on their oppres sors for their axes and hoes, their plow- I shares, and their prunning hooks, as J well as their swords, their guns and I I their powder ? Who could fail to love I jand respect the land of the people, who i [in addition to all this, sells us our beef, - lour bay, our butter and cheese, our po ’ tatoes, onions and cabbages ? I j Would it not lie wise to avail our |selvesof this amiable trait of human II character, and afford it a chance for [ ! [exercise towards our mountain popula • i tion ? j The cotton planters may answer! A J f word to the wise is sufficient. ! The statistics of iron and its products Heonsideied relatively in regard to the j ‘ South and the North, are equally inteiv i I esting. Virginia, North and South Carolina, j i [ Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee and Ar-1 t [kausas, (saying nothing of the vast re- I sources of Texas,) have iron ore, equal j 1 ! in quality and more abundant, than all j ■ [ the Northern States together. | There are made in the United States, 1 [about 800,000 tons of iron, which costs ' [the consumers $60,000,000. Thismuch, and 500,000 tons more of foreign iron, His consumed in the United States. A 1 total of 1,300,000 tons consumed, at a ' cost to the consumers of $97,500,000. [Of this, there is consumed in theSouth ; | ern States nearly one half, $40,000,000 >j worth. They produce comparatively 'lbut little, suppose 810,000,000 worth. ; [This leaves 530,000,000 to be annually | paid her by the South for iron, made by others. It is paid out of the cotton crop di rectly or indirectly. The cotton crop is equal to $150,000,- [ i 000. Os tliis, $30,000,000 goes to pay ' for iron. How much more is paid for hay, butter, cheese, beef, apples, pota- i [toes, cabbages, onions, garden seeds and js dower-roots, the merchants can tell.— jl And all of this is paid by the South, M with better resources than the North, serving to insure our dependence, toil make us love, respect and submit to the ! i North, whilst we feel anything but re- ' [sped, regard or interest in or for our ' j mountains and all that therein are. < Annually, for thirty years, has the South, by its best bred gentlemen and i ladies, in their richest costume —hat in i hand —called on the North, leaving their | cards. For thirty years these calls have not i [ been returned. Year after year we ring : their parlor bells and leave our visiting 1 cards. They print our cards and make I i our bells- -whilst we pay for the cards I ’ [and bells —and ring ourselves. But the 1 [calls are not returned. What we get 1 1 in return every one knows. I At home, if we call on a neighbor and . he does not return it, self-respect forbids j a second call. For our Northern neigh i hors we swallow self-respect and repeat i i the call, and get our clothes and our ! j food, our offices and titles of Honor— I 'on their own terms. i If our statesmen are wise, they will j stimulate the products of our farms, jour orchards, gardens anddaries—if not of the iron and mineral region.

Many reliable estimates set down the j cotton crop of the United States this year at the high figure of 3,500,000!, bales. It is coming to market much i' earlier than usual. The receipts atj, Southern ports are 550,000 bales (in; j round numbers) in advance of the re-j, ceipts of last and other average years !, ; to the same date. So large have been ' i tlie arrivals at Charleston, Savannah, j, ; Mobile, and New Orleans, that specie j, lias been shipped from New York to the j | | South to buy bills on England more j i cheaply than they can be had here.— j The price is satisfactory. And, consid ering the condition of Europe ; peace !' everywhere; prosperity in Germany, Ireland.Spain,ami other countries which ' have often lately been in the deepest i' distress; a large accumulations of mo- 1 1 ney at the financial centres; a fairpros - ;' pect that new markets for European i i manufactures will be opened in China, ! j Japan, British Columbia,and elsewhere; ■ f ! there is no reason to expect that the ! £ 1 price will decline. j In an article published some months j [back in this journal, we showed tbat in j j that most active commercial year the j | United States ever knew, 18561 the cot-1J j ton of the South was our chief stand by j J j and set off against the enormous con- j - sumption of foreign goods in the great [ cities and throughout the country. But , for the copious supply of cotton, and i high price it commanded, the United L j States would have incurred a debt to j £ ;the foreign world which it would have j taken years to discharge. It seems now that the cotton crop is going to he the means of setting the j | trade of the country on its legs again, j Our other -great staple—breadstuffs—is ! jin an unpromising condition. Excel- ( i lent harvests have been the rule j throughout Europe, and the price of all j j kinds of breadstuffs rules so low that it i is estimated that a loss of at least a mil-1 lion of dollars has been incurred by j the parties who sent breadstuffs to N. York this fall. At present rates, and j they are likely to be unchanged for j some months, flour and wheat cannot j be sent abroad and sold so as to repay j the producer in the West. Our cotton on the contrary, if the crop fulfils present expectations, will j not only nobly reward the planter, but j will go a long way toward liquidating j the debt we are incurring to Europe for : dry goods and foreign manufactures.— j More than this : the early receipts at I the Southern ports, by suggesting ship- j ments of specie from New York, have j given trade the first wholsome impetus it has had since the revulsion. The four or five million of specie we have j sent to the South were worse than use- j less in our bank vaults here. In the j South they will be eminently useful. i They will generate and fe'ed traffic j throughout the Southern country. And coming back to us, as they will by va rious channels through the South and West, they will, on their journey, serve j usefully to restore credit land foster j wholesome commercial enterprise. The ! i revival of trade will hereafter be dated J from the early fall receipts of cotton from the South, and the movement in j specie which they occasioned.— liar- j per s'. P. & J. I.

Fowie—Sir : You are at liberty to use the following statement for the benefit of the as “ dieted: g I was attacked with the I.lver Complaint, e which apparently brought me to the brink o! t the grave. During my sickness I was attended 3 by three physicians in our place, but received r no help. I also tried the various remedies re a commended fur such complaints, but they as . forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was . persuaded to try TFisiar’s lialsam of Wild c Cherry, and by using four bottles I was restored to better health than I have enjoyed before for y ten years, this statement may be relied upon o as strictly true.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR r | 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 j ' fluid re acquires its solventpower, and the crude, • nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to -; the sufferer, while his digestive organization was • I paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the > | wholesome revolution created in the system, the' >! basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sufi’erer, while tormented by the » acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux j > or ordiuary headache, afflicted with vague ter- > ; rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with j Paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that j terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of j J nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain | ; or disability arising from the unnatural condition ' . j of the wonderful machinery which connects ev- j | cry member with the source of sensation, mo ‘ lion and thought—derives immediate benefit j from the useof this Cordial, which atoncecalms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous ' organization. Females who have tried it are unanimo s in ! declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that i woman lias ever received from the bauds of, J medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite While it renews the strength cf the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid material f which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. Iflonglile and the vigor necessary to its on- ! joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of j precious worth 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-1 sion, the individual suffering from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ willall find immediatcand permanent refief from " the u?e of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it I will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard j against that terrible malady. There are many; perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu-: tion that they think themselves beyond the reach j of medicine. Let cot even those despair. Thel 0 Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re fercnce to the causes, and will not only remove i the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken ccn- j f stitution i LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil-1 ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self de* !
