Too Good to be Lost. —A number of years
ago a brace of very virtuous and somewhat el
derly ladies formed themselves into a committee
to remonstrate with a prominent publisher re
specting the character of the books which he is
sued. Bulwer’s novels, if 1 remember rightly,
were the special objects of their indignation.—
The worthy bibliopole, who was at first taken
aback by the vivacity of their assault, put in as
a plea in mitigation that the greater portion of
his publications were unexceptionable to even
the severest criticism on the score of moral
character.
The ladies looked dubiously over their spec
tacles. “Have you read this, or this, or this?”
he asked, pointing out the titles of works on
theology, and history, and biography, and poe
try, and every department of literature which
graced his extensive catalogue. Not one of
them had the committee perused. “Then, per
haps,’’ hinted the publisher, “you are not certain
of the character ol the works you object to ;
perhaps you have not read them.” “ Yes, we
have,’’ answered the spokeswoman; “we have
read every word of them. Why will you pub
lish such objectionable works?” “Madame,”
replied the sly bibliopole, with a smile, “we pub
lish them for ladies like yourself, who will nev
er read anything else.”
A rejoinder equal to that of Dr. Johnson to
the lady who'said to him, “Oh, Doctor, I am so
glad that you have left all the naughty words
out of your dictionary.” “Madame,” replied
the gruff lexicographer, “you have, I see, been
looking for them.”
A Dodge. —When Deacois Y got into a
bad position, he was very expert in crawling
out of it. Though quick tempered, ho was one
of the best deacons in the world. He would
not in a sober moment utter an oath, or any
thing like one, for his weight in cider.
At the close of a rainy day, he was milking
upon a knoll in his barn-vard; one side of which
was a dirty slough, arid on the other an old
ram, that, in consideration of his usual quiet
disposition, was allowed to run with the cows.
The deacon was piously humming “Old Hun
dred,’’ and had just finished the line ending
with “exhalted high,’’ when the ram, obeying
a sudden impulse to be aggressive, gave him a
blow from behind that put him up a short dis
tance, only to fall directly into the slough, where
the dirty water was deep enough to give him a
thorough immersing. As he crawled out, and
before he rose from bis hand and knees, he
looked over his shoulder at the ram, and quietly
vociferated—
“ You and and old cuss!” but, looking around
and seeing one of his neighbors at the bars
looking at him, he added in the same breath,
“if 1 may be allowed to use the expression.”

Health op the Prisons.—Happening down
at the Workhouse, a day or two since, we felt
anxious to learn whether the unfortunate inmates I
of the city prison-houses had suffered much from
the plague. Upon inquiry, we were pleased to
learn that there had not been one case in that
institution, where there are over two hundred
persons confined. The same, we understand, is
the case with regard to other city prisons. We
did not learn whether all who are confined in
these places are acclimated, but presume they
are not, to the country—though the majority of
them may be to the particular localities which
they occupy. We will not pretend to advance
any reasons for the health of these places, but
merely state the facts, and leave the rest to the
“Faculty.’’— N. O. Delta,‘Hid.
McCarty, of the Paducah (Ky.) Journal
thorough going whig", and a whole souled, funny
fellow. He is never gloomy under defeat. On the
contrary, at such times, and they come often in him,
he indulges iu tun to the top of his bent. Living
in Linn Boyd’s District, it is very seldom he has a
chance to record a whig triumph in those diggings.
When he does, however, he crows lustily, and
makes the most of it, as appears by the follow
ing announcement, copied from the journal of the
10th inst.:
GREAT TRIUMPH!
One Whig Constable Elected in Linn Boyd's District!!!
In the hurry of getting out our paper las*, week
we neglected to chronicle a whig triumph in this
district.
We have not lost everything. No, sir-ee !
A Whig Constable has been elected in Paducah
by an overwhelming majority !
Win. J. Boone is the happy man—long life to
him !
Bring out the fuzzy-guzzy—sound the how-gag
—bent the hum-drum ! Roosters, retire to your re
treats, for coon stock is rising !
The Mission to France. —We are satisfied,
says the Washington Star of Saturday, that the
idea of tendering the French Mission to Governor
Howell Cobb, of Georgia, is not entertained by
the Administration, more especially as it is well
known that when recently in Washington, be
Irankly assured various members of the Govern
ment, as well as many of his private friends, that
though his sympathies were warmly with the
President and his policy, be could not consent
to hold any office under the General Govern
ment. Governor C. is looking to the Senate.
The wag of the Boston Post gives vent to the
following oil the recent marriage of Lola Moutez
to Patrick P. Hull :
The countess, like a gallant bark,
Long bounded over fortune's wave,
And when the storm cloud gathered dark,
She dared it with a purpose brave ;
But mark the change— strange destiny f.
That will life’s brightest prospects dull,
Hero passion sweeps across her sea,
And leaves her nothing hut a Hull.
Patrick! That will account for the courage of the
mail. None but an Irishman—a race famous both in
the field of Mars and that of Venus—could have
undertaken such a task.
“In the mean time there appears to be a general
falling away from the President.”— N. Y. Courier.
Ye*! Virginia has “fallen away” so far as to
send to Congress an unbroken Democratic delega
tion. Alabama has just “fallen away” after the
same fashion. Tennessee, too, has “fallen away”
into an unprecedented majority for a Democratic
Governor and the election of a Democratic majority
in Congress, in the face of a most atrocious Whig
gerrymander. And, finally, Kentucky and North
Carolina have so far “fallen away” as to put the
Whig party in those States in the worse plight they
ever have been. These “fallings away from the
President” in the Whig strongholds give token that
the whole country is “falling away” from them so
fast I hat soon there will be no one State left to op
pose his administration.— Examiner.
A noble Spirit. —We learn that a deputation of
young men from Baton Rouge arrived in our city
yesterday, having come for the purpose of assisting
the members of the Howard Association, in the dis
charge of their arduous and philanthropic duties.—
Such acts of sympathy and friendliness lor human
ity tewi to raise our opinion of the dignity and char
ity of human nature. Our Baton Rouge brethren
may he suie that their mission of mercy will not ho
lorgotten by our people.— N. O. Courier.
A New Rending of Shdkspeare. —in a country
town “down E ast,” a democratic newspaper was
started, depending mainly for support on the con
tributions of the “faithful” iu that region. Its mot
to was—
“Be just and fear not.”—Shakspeare.
An old tiumer, who had been quite active in pro
moting’ the intere-is f this newspaper enterprise,
took up the first number and commenced reading it,
with laudatory comments. As lie read the motto,
his face flushed with honest enthusiasm, and he ex
claimed : “Pear not Shakspeare ; no line we won’t,
nurany other darned old Federalist!”
It is the talk in Atlanta, that the bell of the
engine Mississippi which exploded on theGeorgin
Road, some six weeks ago, in Newton county,
was loitnd safely ensconsed iu the steeple of a
church in Henry county, several miles from the
place ol the accident. Steam is a powerful
agent and perpetrates many strange pranks, but
this is a little ahead of anything we have heard
yet. May it be a warning to sinners!— lb.
Steam Power on Farms. —The Marquis of Tiveedale
has succeeded perfectly in working plows bv steam power.
The distinguished Kusrlish Agriculturist, Mr. Meohe, in a
late article, says: “There can be no doubt but that very
shortly every agriculturist must use steam power if he is
to standhis ground in the race of agricultural’ competition.
The want of it is already felt, if not seen, by those who
have not the means or inclination to use it. The time is
approaching when a steam engine on a farm will be as
common as the drill or threshing machine, although, like
them, it has to pass through the ordeal of disbelief, doubt
and prejudice. A committee of the Royal Agricultural
Society give the most extraordinary accounts of the rapid
introduction of farm locomotive engines during the last
three months.
YW” On Thursday night last, says the Paulding
(Miss.) Clarion, the residence of Mr. Groome, liv
ing in this county, about ten miles distant from
Paulding, on the Enterprise road, was blown to
fragments by an explosion of gun powder, and Mr.
Groome, the only occupant, was projected through
the roof, and fell some distance from the scene of
disaster. He is horribly and probably fatally burn
ed. Mr. Grooine is an unmarried man, and the
proprietor of some negroes, one of whom is sus
pected of the fiendish deed. The explosion occur
red by a keg of powder belonging to Mr. Groome
being placed under his house during the night.
Editorial Change. —The Richmond Emptirer an
nounces that Roger A. Pryor, Esq., has become
itrerested in the Enrttirer, and will in a few days,

Baker Democratic Nominations.- The Demo
cratic party of Baker, we are pleased to notice,
has nominated Col. Richard H. Clarke for the
Senate, and Lawrence G - Rowell for the Rep
resentative Branch, for the next Legislature.—
The nomination of Col. Clarke was unanimous
—a tribute of respect which is every way due
to his eminent abilities, and self-sacrificing de
votion to the interests of the democratic party,
of which be is not only a firm and zealous member,
but an able and efficient leader The democ
racy of Baker have done themselves honor in
their nominations, which is but the passage of
what they will do for the cause of democracy,
in October next. — Southern Democrat.
Mortality for the Month of July. —The New Or
leans Monthly Medical Register, edited by Dr. A.F.
Axson, gives the stun total of mortality for the month
of July past as 2032, of which 1387 were of yellow
fever. During the same month, the admissions in
to the Charity Hospital were 2 96, discharges 1105,
deaths 709. Os these 1838 were born in foreign
countries.
Army Movements. —Two of tlip four compa
nies of the fourth regiment U. S. artillery sta
tioned in N. Y. harbor are ordered to the Rio
Grande. Two companies of the third artillery,
forming part of the garrison at Newport, Rhode
Island, are also under orders to the same point.
The company of the fourth artillery stationed
at Oswego is to be withdrawn, to replace in
part the force taken from the posts at New
York. These changes are consequent upon
the advance of Santa Anna upon Carmargo, who,
it is said, has concentrated an army of six thou
sand men in that quarter —and of whose move
ments the government have been advised.
A “Fast’’ Couple. —We find the following
marriage notice in the Rochester Daily Adverti

Accident on tho State Road—Three Persona Killed-
Several Wounded.
Mr. Editor :—How strange that accidents having
their origin in either “fire, or flood or field” are said
never to come singly ! The journals of the day teem
with railroad casualties and the “end is not yet.” On
yesterday, nine miles above this place, at a water station,
the Engine of the last down freight train for the day
blew up, killing the Conductor, Greeson, and two Ten
nesseans, (passengers,) names unknown, and seriously
wounding others. Mr. Carlton, a fireman, suffered am
putation of one of his arms last night at this place, on
account of injury by the disaster. Another fireman
was badly injured but was left, Mr. Carlton having beg
ged to be brought to Mr. Higsmith’s house, where he
is doing well. The down passage train was delayed
by the accident until a late hour iu the afternoon, and
it was night before it left Marietta. This will there
fore be the first news we could send you of the accident
by mail, as the connection was broken at Atlanta. It
may reach you by telegraph or by jiassengers of the
day trains before the receipt of this letter. The
bodies of the three unfortunate men who were killed,
were taken to Atlanta yesterday evening, and were
some of them horribly mangled.
Accidents from the cause in this case seldom occur,
but seem always fatal to a greater or less extent.

Ellerslie Lodge, No. 144, )
Aug. 20th, 1853, A. L., 2853. $
At a meeting ol the Lodge convened lor the purpose of
performing Funeral Rites at the grave of our deceased
Brother, Dr. Robert W. Carnes, on the 7th inst., a com
mittee appointed lor the purpose, reported the following
preamble and resolutions, which were unanimously adop
ted.
Whereas, our Supreme Grand Master in the dispensation
of his All-wise providence has removed from among us
our much esteemed Brother, Robert W. Cairnes, who de
parted this life on the Bth day of April, 1853, in the 53d year
of his age. Our brother has fallen in death—but a short
time has elapsed since he was enjoying the sweet vicissi
tudes of life; honor'd with all the sacred ties and endear
ments which hind us to earth. But in the bright hour ot
existence the solemn signal was given ; he has been called
from his labors here to an eternal rest. Death has entered
our ranks, thereby weakening the chain by which we are
united man to man. With humble resignation do we re
cognize thy providence, Oh ! God, trusting through thy
mercy, that our loss in the death of our brother, is his eter
nal gain—that he has a building of God not made with
hands eternal in the Heavens.
Asa friend he was generous and sincere, as a husband,
kind and affectionate, as a father truly devoted, and as a
Mason, good, true and worthy.
Therefore, be it Resolved, That we deeply regret and
lament the affliction that has fallen on the family and
friends of our departed brother, and we hereby offer them
! <ur sympathy and condolence on the irreparable loss ihey
have sustained.
Resolved, That we wear the usual badge of mourning

Insect Stings, Pains in the l.lmbs, Chest, Rack, iu-. 11 il does
not give relief, the money will be refunded, all that is asked, is a I
trial, and use it according to the directions. This article is an
English remedy, and was naed by William iA. Fourth, King of
F.ngland, and certitied to by him, as a cure for Rheumatism,
when every thing else recommended by his physicians has railed.
Over 10,000.0011 of bottles have been sold In Hie United States,
without a single failure, amt families have stated, that if it was
Sio per bottle, they never would he without it, in case of croup
aa it is as certain as it is applied. It ernes toothache in three
minutes ; headache in half mi hour, and cholera when ilrst taken,
in a few hours. It I. perfectly innocent to take internally, and’ I
has the recommendation of many ol the most eminent Physicians
m tiie United States. Price 25 and 50 cents.
nr Hr. Tobin* has also put up a Liniment lor Horse?, in pint
bottles, which is warranted--cheuper and better than any other,
tor the cure of colic, galls, swellings, old shores, cute, bruises,
scratches, crackl'd heel, See. Price 50 cents.
Dr. Tobias could fill a dozen newspapers with the certificates
and letters received, relating to the wonderful cures accomplish
ed by his Liniment, but considers that warranting it, sufficient,
as any person who does not obtain rebel, need not pay for it.
There has been so much worthiest*medicine sold to the*public,
that Dr. Tobias wishes his article to rest on its own merits—ami
if he gives the value ot* the money received, then he asks the
patronage of the public, not otherwise.

ALL who want Axes of the real Collins tc Cos. make should
be particular to notice the stamps, as there are various
counterfeits and imitations stamped Collins and labelled much
like ours, which are fraudulently sold in seme parts of the Uni

of the country by various axe-ntakers, and generally their ]Hx>r

such au extensive reputation, are invariably stamped “COLLINS
& CO., HARTFORD,” and each axe has a printed lit bid with my
signature. It is now more than Twenty-five years since we

C ured in Half the Time.
The French Surgeons and Physicians have ever been
noted as being superior to ail others, in the treatment of
venereal affections (gonorrhoea) in ail its forms.
The extensive compound known as the French Mix
l ture has and will cure in hail the time, more cases than
anything to he had, particularly those that are so pleas
ant to take, and mild in their operation. All who are in
terested ought to know that any remedy of this kind
must act promptly, if at all successful, lienee the im
portance of a remedy l.ke the French Migtutc, that
will speedily accomplish the object without nauseating the
stomach, or any deleterious consequence following. More
I than one bottle, with the dose gradually increased, is sel*
! dom necessary even when the case is of months’ standing.
! It is peculiar to this combination, that the secretions art;
so soon arrested as well as perltcting the cure otherwise,
livery Physician knows, it is indispensable to treat this
affection according to the grade of irritation, without
which it would be quackery of the lowest order, lienee
the safety and absolute importance of having a remedy
modified tor the acute and chronic stage as the Nos. mar
ked Nos. 1 and 2of the French Mixtures are. Being
thus improved and perfected, the cure is more safe and
certain iu all the forms and peculiarities of the disease, es
pectally if its use is persisted in lor a few days.
For chronic disorders ol the kidneys and bladder and
fluor albus, which tire so often niet with, nothing perhaps
will give quicker relief or afford more permanent benefit
as the taking of a bottle No. 2 French Mixture.
BEYVARE OF IMPOSITION,
and avoid the use of substitutes.
The sac simile of the signature ol Dr. YV. G. Little
will be found upon the outside wrapper of each of his
medicines.
