A Slaver ( angUl.
The Savannah papers of Saturday re
ported the arrival of the steamer Wan
derer, near Brunswick, Ga., with a car
go of slaves.
The Savannah Republican of this morn
— ing, contains further particulars of this
'VuTa'ir, and states that three persons,
lamed Juan Bt. K a just a, X. A. Brown,
and Miguel Aguirvi, have been arrested
and lodged in jail, to await testimony
from Brunswick, when they will under
go examination.
It is said that the negroes were land
ed on Jekyl island, for which privilege
the traders paid $15,000, and from there
one hundred and fifty of them were
brought past Savannah to a plantation,
and scattered over the country. The
cargo is reported to consist of three
hundred and fifty.
It will be recollected that this yacht
was arrested last summer, near New
York, on suspicion of being bound for
the slave trade, but was released. Capt.
Curry, of South Carolina, was in com
mand then, as he is now. He has pa
pers purporting to be from the native
officials of St. Helena, but they have
no seals.
The collector of the port of Darien,
says that the yatch had no appearance
of having had slaves aboard.
Adjournment of the Legislature,
The Legislature adjourned on yester
day(Sunday) morning, its closing hours
being devoted to the passage of another
ridiculous bank bill. Our reporter has
not sent us any report of the bill or of
the proceedings of the night session.
The “Indian Empire,” which
sailed from Hew York, for Galway, Ire
land, on the 23d of October, has not
been heard of, and it is feared that she
has gone down. She had on board 15
cabin, 67 forward cabin passengers, cap
tain, 9 officers, and 86 men. Geo. Ash- ;
by, who was Chief Engineer on the
Central America, occupied the same
office on the Indian Empire.
jjp A hill is before the Arkansas Le
gislature t<s suppress the sale of patent
medicines in that State.
They will probably next pass a law to ■
prevent the licensing of physicians.

Death of Mr. William,.
On Wednesday night Mr. W. Scott ,
Williams, of the house of Johnson &
Hamilton, of New York, was attemping
to cross the track at Waynesboro’ be
fore an approaching engine, when he (
fell, and the wheels passed over his left
] e o. His leg was amputated, but his <
system could not withstand the shock, 1
and he died on Thursday night. We ,
understand that Mr. Williams was a ,
native of Jasper county, in this State,
and was about twenty-six years of ‘

Fiendish Affair*
The Bainbridge Argus contains the de
tails of a most attvocious attack on
Mrs. Margaret Sadler, twelve miles
from that place, by two negroes m
which she was beaten so badly that she
died, and her daughter-aged 18-was
horribly bruised, but is not mortally
hurt. The second oldest daughter made
her escape, but a boy 11 y ears of a S e >
is mangled so that he cannot recover,
and an infant is seriously injurned.-
Tke fiends, who committed this dia
bolical outrage, belonged, one to Mr.
Turk ins, and the other to Mrs. Keatob,
and have been lodged in jail.
Smith of Coweta.
Several papers copy the following
sentence attributed to Mr. 3. E. Smith,
of Coweta, in his speech against Moore s
free negro bill:
•* Free Negroes are an ornament to
society, and an honor to their country.
While we dissent entirely from the,
position of Mr. Smith, in his speech.,
we believe great injustice is done him,
in the above report of his remarks.-
Indeed we are assured that he did not (
use the language attributed to him, and (
has no such sympathies for that class of
our population as the expression would .
indicate. We make this statement on 1
good authority, hut without hiskuowl-|
edge. ! 1

Senator Douglas was stricken from the j
Chairmanship of the Committee on |

Washington Correspondence.
Washington, D. C., Dec. if, 58-
The second session of the thirty-fifth
Congress is in operation. They have,
in either house, been remarkably quio
thus far. What agitation will take
place, may be gathered from a remark
' made by John V. Hale in the Senate,
pending the motion to print extia copies
of the President's Message. You know
that John is one of the greatest wags
' ever invested with Senatorial honors
' The wire pullers among his constitu
' cuts, are perfectly rabid, and John, who
has some of his strongest friends among
’ Southern Senators and members, feels
s under obligation to let ofi some ol
i of liis richest jokes at the expense ol
i the South and the Administration, it
1 is expected of him, Congress is amused,
r his constituents are satisfied, and lie
■ continues fat. Hale says “James Bu
chanan has made out a very fine state
- ment about the settlement of the han
e sas question and all that sort of thing,
e but it is not true!” ,
e Senator Iverson has given notice of a
~ bill to abolish the franking privilege
e and to substitute stamps tothose now
e entitled to frank lettersand documents.
It will he hard to pass the bill.
t In the House—which, by the way, is
v a much younger body of men than one
r would expect to meet in the assembled
wisdom of a nation like our own the
impeachment of Judge Watrous, of
Texas, has taken up some timu. This
case has been two years before Congress,
and ought, in justice to all parties, to
be acted on at once.
The Georgia delegation occupies no
’ ordinary position on the fioor of the
; House. Stephens, the acknowledged j
champion of the “light weights,” is j
making himself heard and respected at
the same time, above the din of Con- j
gressionaluproar. Josh Hill,who every-!
body in Georgia knows, is one of the 1
best fellows in the world, and has al-.
ready, after his brief experience, much;
power in the opposition. Let the 7th
District take care of him, and their j
rights and honor never will he compro
mised. Yours,
Quartz.

was sentenced to six months imprison-
I ment and a fine of 3,000 francs. The
editor of the Correspondent was fined
1,000 francs and sentenced to one
, month imprisonment. The result of
j this trial caused a slight depression in

I What Does it Mean.—There are
s vague outgivings in the Northern press
_ of some grand scheme in Sonora for

1 and principle of the Northern Aid Emi
-1 gration Society. We are on the track
s of some rich developments, which we
, hope to present to our readers about the
time that magnificent “Oregon war
debt” is well on tapis.
One company in one Northern city
, has the sole and exclusive right of
; taking passengers to Nicaragua, and
one man in the same Northern city has
the power—and uses it—to forbid all
Americans sailing from any Southern
port, and with these facts before vs, we
’’ do not see why it is not just as right
■ and reasonable for another set of North
- ern capitalists to take charge of the
f future of Sonora and Arizona. The
South and Southwest ruay not like this
system of exclusion and forestament,
but there seems to he no help for it.

(f’A Liver Remedy.—The
! Livery cording to Physiologists, occupies in
I our human economy a place second only to the
I heart, and consequently is one of the greatest
j dispensers of health and happiness, or sickness
and disease. To keep the liver in the proper
performance of its duties is to keep the system
in a state of health, and free from all bodily iMs.
Dr. Sanpford's INVIGORATOR is a great Rkgu
i.atok of tub I.ivEß. It instills into it new life
and vigor, strengthens it, and invigorates it,
curing the fountain from whence so many
streams of sickness flow. We say to all who
! are troubled with any derangement ofthe Liv
-1 er, such as Dyspepsia, Jaundice, Sick Headache,
Billiousnes? or debility of system, do not fail to

Solved:—Pß. MORSE’S .INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
lias lost the power of duly converting food iuto a
life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
i-ourse of this extraordinary tonic. The gastrin
' fluid re acquires its solveutpower. and thecrude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
: the sufferer, while Ins digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
whole-some revolution created in the system, the
; basis of activitv. strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the j
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux 1
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter- i
| rors. wakened by periodical fits, threatened with i
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
1 nervous energy, or experiencing any other pair.
I or disability arising from the uunaturalcondition
j of the wonderful machinery which connects ev-
I ery member with the source of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit!
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calm-,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous *
1 organization.
Females who have tried it are unauimovs ini
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the lia da of
medical men.
Morse's Invigorating Elixir has a direct, ini- i
mediate aud astonishing effect upon the appetite
While it renews the strength or the digestive
powers it create- 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
Iflongiile aud the vigor necessary t«» its en-.
Joy men t are desirable, this medicine is indeed of,
precious worth
It? beueficial effects are not confined to either;
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing 1
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres-J
sion, the individual suffering from general de !
bility or from the weakness of a single organ i
willall find immediate ami permanent rellif from
the use of thi3 incomparable -m •valor. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing .safe guard
against that terrible mda ’' There are many
perhaps who have so ir v.ith their constitu
tion that they thiuk then - <s beyond thereach
ol'medicine. Let not even those despair. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
ierence to the causes, aud will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution
