AUGUSTA, GKO :
Thui-Mlay Kvt»in|, Utt. 16, 1808.
( A Family Uuarrcl.
m Perhaps it is in had taste for Ms to in
terfere in the issue between our neigh
bors of the CbrutttutWMn# and Governor
Brown, but we cannot forbear to notice
the effort on foot to keep Gov. Brown
from throwing odium on previous ad
ministrators by the satisfactory exbib
its Os the State Road tinder his -mange
ment. We have never said a bad thing!
about Ur. Spulloch, on the contrary,
*wi-have alluded in terms of approval
to his connection tvith the Road. But
we have blso commended the manage
ment of the Road under Gov. Brown,
■while our neighbor lias pronounced his
administration of its affairs “a blundei,
and hence, to sustain our own -position,
it becomes us to watch the quarrel, and
if need be to interfere Jfar enough tq
protect our own record, at least, even
if we. receive the maledictions of both,
parties—the reward usually visited up-,
on those who interfere in family broils..
The Constitvlvmcdist, has written a col-j
umn, in which he certainly proves that,
“ Justice ” is a bad mathematician ; but
his own figures show that Mr. Spullock s,
nett earnings on an income of $900,000
■were $442,800, while Dr. Lewis, with
an income’of SBOO,OOO, made nett $414,-
792, which according to his “own rale
of Three," would have made his nett
earnings $466,641. had his income been
equal to that of Mr. Spulloch. This
is $23,781 better than Spulloch did, ac
cording to his own showing, winch is
certainly an item worth saving.
We have nothing to do with the in
sinuation that Gov. Brown knew all
about the resolution of Mr. Hall of
Pike, before it was introduced, and
leave that for Mr. Hall himself to an
swer. It is not pertinent to our pres
ent purpose.
The Constitutionalist very gravely par
ades a statement to show that the nett
profits of the Road under Mr. SruL
lock's year were $39,207.93 greater than
the year following under Lewis. He
avoids saying in this connection that
the gross income of the same year was
SIOO,OOO, greater than that of the year
following.
All these figures amount to very lit
tle, after all—and we allude to them ■
only to show that if they prove that •
the management of the Hoad under
Brown has been a “ blunder,’ it was a ,
still greater blunder under the manage
ment of the model of the Constitutionalist, i
Spcllock. And if a still greater blun- ;
der under him, how shall we denomi
nate its control under certain previous ,
dynasties that proceeded him ? Verily, i
, verily, "comparisons are odorous," aDd I
only go to prove what we have been 1
laboring to make the people believe, I
that the Stale Road ought to ho sold,
to secure it against the abuses to which
it is subject, and to relieve our politi
cal brethren of such a hone of conten
tion, aud such a field for swindling the
State. But if the Constitutionalist would
deal fairly by Gov. Beown, why does
he not take the entire administration
previous, as the basis of his compari
son. That is the only fair criterion
by which to place the two adminis
trations in review before the people. We
have not looked into it, hut we dare
assert that Gov. Beown will not shrink
from the comparison.
Mttrcler.
We learn from private sources that a
brutal murder was perpetrated on the
9th inst., at Chester, South Carolina,
upon Robt. Morrison, a highly esteem
ed and respectable citizen of that place
by Wm. Hodges and Josei-h Howerton,
who succeeded in making their escape.
No particulars given. The culprits are
thus described:
Hodc.es, the main culprit, is about
five feet, seven or nine inches in height,
dark complexion, light make a
carpenter or cabinet maker by trade.—
Also, he is said to be a noted gambler.
Howerton, his accomplice in the af
fair, is also a light made man, of the
same height as Hodues, light hair and
of a fairer complexion. He is a coach- (
painter by trade. They are supposed
to he lurking about the upper portion ,
of this State, or in some part of North
Carolina.
A reward of one hundred dollars has
been offered for their arrest, by John C.
LiprOßD, Chester, S. C.

Dear Dispatch :—The claberation of
the atmosphere is so incongenial to
day that I can scarcely agerate my poe
dorbymic with any hope of osticating
your eldelated readers,but at all events,
as has been beautifully said nccum ti cu
tum, which being intuported means :
poor folks don’t dig potatoes—they will
have to make the best of this rameca
ted attempt,and trust to tiro del tutor, till
a more convenient season. In the
mean time I wHI aggregate my jutile ,
pen, till I see another article from the
Constitutionalist on Gov. Brown’s manage- 1
ment of the State Road, when you may (
look out for a real ambush.

for twenty yeais to the Southern travel-!
i ing public as a hotelkeeper of the first

commend the Doctor and his house to

afterwars kept the great “Charleston

A letter from Gen. Cass was publish
ed a few days ago, in reply so one from
Mr. A. Hart, president of a Hebrew con
i gregation in Philadelphia, asking our
government to interfere in behalf of
the Mortara boy. Mr. Hart subsequent
ly wrote another letter to Gen. Cass,
calling his attention to the action of
our governmet in 1840, during Mr. Vani
Buren’s administration, in relation to
the crulties to the Jews in Damascns.—
To this second letter of Mr. Hart, Gene
ral Cass responds thet he can find no
reason to change the views he com
municated in his first letter, which were
to the effect that the abduction of the
Mortara boy took place within the terri
tories of an independent power, and
without effecting the rights of any
American citizen—under such circum
stances it was the settled policy of the!
United States to abstain from all inter-'
ference as they expect other nations to
abstain from all interference in the in
ternal concerns of this country.

tiT From the Missouri De
mocrat-——Upon Prof. 0. J. Wood, of St. Louis,
fortune has conferred the honor of having dis
covered a balsamic preparation, which not only
promotes tlir growth of, and beautifies the hair
in a high degree, hut restores it when it is gone,
or toms it to its original co or after it has be
come gray, fastens it to the scalp and effectually
destroys such cutaneous eruptions as may have
been engendered by the use of d es, essential
oils and other injurious applications. The many
respectable testimonials which arc offerei in its
favor, fr.om every part of the country in which
it has been introduced, leaves no loop for a skep
tic to hang a doubt on. It is supplanting all other
specifics for the hair, and enjoys a popularity
which no other has ever attained. Buy it—test
it—and rejoice that your attention has been di
rected to it.
Caution. —Beware of worthless imitations, as
several are already in the market, called hy dif
ferent names. Use none unless the words (Pro
fessor Wood’s Hair Restorative, Depot St Louis,
Mo., and New York), are blown in the bottle.

from Dr. Dyoti, which completely cured me of

Liver, according to Physiologists, occupies in j
our human economy a place second only to the

: I performance of its duties is to keep the system j
| in a state of health, and free from all bodily ills.,
* j Dr. Sa.vdford’s INVIGORATOR is a great Regu
lator of the Liver. It instills into it new life
j and vigor, strengthens it, and invigorates it. j

streams of sickness flow. We say to all who -
’ are troubled with any derangement of the Liv- j

try Dr. Sanford’s Liver Ixyigorator. decl-m j
The Great Problem
| Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR-!
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach I
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
l nutriment, w r hich was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was (
J paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the j
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 j
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter- j
f rora. wakened by periodical fits, threatened with j
paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that j
! terriblelassitude which proceeds from a lack of j
| nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
. ; or disability arising from the unnatural condition j
I of the wonderful machinery which connects ev-’
j j ery member with-the source of sensation, mo- i
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 in ;
- declaring the Elixir to tje the greatest boon that,
woman has ever received from the hards of
j medical men.
1 Morse’s Invigorating Elixir hag a direct, ira-,
’ j 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 tlieir action. As an j
, appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. j
C Iflonglile and the vigor necessary to its en- ■
joymentare desirable, this medicine is indeed of j
precious worth
’ Its beneficial effects are not confined to either i
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 rie
► bilitv or from the weakness of a single organ
* willall find immediateand permanentrelvf from
I the use of this incomparable renovator. To 1
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it i
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
II against that terrible milady. There are many!
j perhaps who have so trilled with their constitu
j tion that they think themselves beyond the reach j
, of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
i Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
j ierence to the causes, and will not only remove j
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- j
stitution
