A Fiicd Fact —Dr. Cavenaugb's Pile Salve has
now been long enough before the public to have its
merits fairly tested; arid from every one who has
given it a trial, we hear of but one expression, that
it is indeed a Cure. Every one who lias used it,
experienced almost immediate relief and a speedy
cure, a u in many cases, long and diligently
sought, but in vain.
In a conversation with the Doctor a few days
since in regard to his “Pile Salve,” he made this
remark: My Pile Salve, sir, is a c«rr—not a pallia
tive. For twelve years, it never failed in my bauds
in cutitig ctcry case; and I ask no reputation
for it, beyond itsi ntrinsic merits. WJjat I say it
will do, it will do.”
We advise all who have need of such a curative
to try it.

Bite of a Rattlesnake Cured in fre minutes by the
PAIN KILLER'.—Read ike following:—St. Louis.
Mo.. August 25th, 1851.—Messrs. Perry Davis &
Son—Gents:—A merchant of Linnoens, in this
State, informs me that recently one of his sons was
severely bitten on the leg by a rattlesnake, from
the effects of-which lie soon suffered most dreadful
ly. The family chancing to have some of Perry
D avis' Pain Killer in the house immediately com
menced bathing the Iktten place, without-knowing
whether it would or not, afford the least relief, but
surprising as it may seem, the poison was soon ob
served to exude from the wound and in five or
ten minutes the young man fell asleep, entirely
free from pain, or any effect from the bite, except
the flesh wound, which healed very soon, and the
young man was able to prosecute his business
without further'delay.
By giving publicity to this fact in your pampli- •
lot designed for southern and western distribution,
and such countries aspoisnous reptiles more or less
abound, it might serve the cause of humanity, and
be the means of supplying an article, the want of
which has long been experienced.
Yours Respectfully,
II. BLAK8LEY.
Messrs. Perry Davis & Son:—Having witnessed
the beneficial effects of your celebrated Pain Kil
ler in several cases of the Dysentry and Cholera
Morbus within u few months past, and deeming it
an act of benevolence to the suffering, promoted
by the feeling of a common humanity, l would
most cherfully reccommend its use to such as may
be suffering from the aforementioned or suniliar
diseases as a safe, and as far as nty observation
goes, an effectual remedy.

A GOOD COMPARISON.—-The Rev. William
Soulutt, a well known Methdist clergyman, resid
ing at Naples draws the following amusing but
apt comparison between Dr. M'Lane's celebrated
Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pitts
burgh, Pa., and a ferret:
“A ferret, when placed at the entrance of a rat-
hole, enters the aperture, travels along the pas
sage, seizes upon the rat, exterminates his exis
tence, aud draws the animal’s defunct carcass to
the light And in like manner have I found Dr,
M'Laae't Celebrated Vermifuge to operate upon
worms, those dreadful and dangerous tormentors
ofchildren. This remedy, like the ferret, enters
the aperture of the mouth, travels down the gul
let, hunts down the stomach, lat's hold of the
worms, shakes the life out of the reptiles, sweeps
clean their den, and carries their carcasses clear
oat ofthe system. This, at least, has been the ef
fect of the Vermifuge upon my children.”
A neighbor of Mr. Roulatt. Mr. John Briggs,
adopts the simile of the reverned certifier, thus
both giving their most unequi\*ical approval of
this great specific, after having witnessed its opera
tion upon their own children. Let others try it,
and be satisfied.

The Machine Shop is competent to do all our
repairs to machinery, and even'build locomotives,
if necessary. The Carpenter Shop is complete,
”.nd can build our passenger cass cheaper, of bet
ter quality and more durability than can he oh
taim d from Northern shops. It has turned out
recently one baggage and two passenger cars
that will challenge comparison withjauy in the

f I'p to 1852, the Road had scarcely any rquip-
1 ment, and was paying other roads for repairs and
rant for cars and engines, at high rates, for Avant
of continue! IJsu pport fromSthe-Legislature to equip
and save what had already been expended of ap-
j propriations.
This state of things continued through a part of
1852 until Mr. Va adley partly equipped the Road
with the last appropriation made by the Legisla
ture. Since then the business 'of the Road has
increased so rapidly that his views, as to equip
ment, then considered extravagant, have been lost
j in insignificance, and every year, till this, a serious
i want of motive power and cars ha-* been ex
j perienced. Now the Road may be considered
sufficiently equipped in rolling stock to do a busi
ness of one million a year, in gross rceipts.
The Allatooua Culvert, was placed under con
tract by my predecessor. Upon my entry into
office it had progressed considerably above the
foundation, and the work had been received by
the Engineer, then in the einjilov of the Road,
tvho soon after, resigned. The Engineer whom 1
then employed to examine and oversee the work
condemned the character and quality of masonry
then in course of construction. The contractor
submitted to an arbitration, and the aw ard made
by competent engineers of high standing was
accepted. A part of the payment is withheld to
make good, defects that may justly be chargeable
to tlm contractor when the embankment is placed
The Jtross earnings ofthe year just ended, would
have been much greater, were it not for the
absolute necessity of reducing the rates of freight,
to meet the strong rivalry of competing western
lines—a short crop the previous year also reduces
the income considerably.
The earnings of September .just past, were much
reduced by the decline in prices of grain and want
of commercial confidence generally, causing an
I almost universal stoppage of down freight. But,
I judging from the past, in connection with my short
j experi- lice oil this Road, and its present condition
! and equipment, I can sately and do most eonfidetly
assert, that tvith even the same amount of business
jin 1858 that the road has done the past year, it
j can and should with proper management, pay
| into the State Treasury $350,000. The plan I
j adopted last year < f giving increased pay, or a
j bonus to those running upon trains who abstain
entirely from the use of spirituous l-quors is con
tinued aud has proved eminently successful
Nearly all the train employees partake of the bene
fit, and they as well as the community on line of
road.are well pleased tvith the results. I believe
I can confidently aver that no road has enjoyed a
greater immunity from irregularities and accidents
than this, the past year.
Litigation between the citizens of Tennessee
and the Road has been greatly diminished by the
adjustment of suits pending in the law courts.
These suits originated in d images alleged to have
been sustained several years ago. before this Road
had th ability to transport freight promptly when
offered. A good feeling has, in a great degree,
been restored between the Rond and citizens of
our sister State, and no detention of freight, has
occurred the past year at Chattanooga Very
few suits liave originated since I took charge of
the Road. I think sound policy requires that the
Rond should be kejit out of litigation with those
who have business transactions svitli it, so far, at
least, as is consistent with its interests.
It is no doubt true, that the Road may have cost October,
more than it should, as is generally the case with November,
pub'ic works, but fortunately furthe State in this December,
case, the great advantages possessed by its loca- j January,
tion, in being the great link, by which a number of j 1' ebruary,
roads are connected with the Mississippi Valley, March,
and the South Atlantic States, will necessarily I April,
make it one of the best paying Roads in the! May •
South. It is also very clear, that from the various
roads now being constructed and connecting with
it that its income can never be diminished. The
most serious rival to it has been considered tic
line of roads from Memphis, Tennessee, to Wash
ington City, through Tennessee and Virginia,
which will soon be completed: but the effect of this
rival line will be to draw as much or more travel
and freight from South-Atiantic States than will , _ ,
b“ diverted from it The na’ural adi-antaire of | Dctotier,
this Road will not only protect it effectually, but
all railroad interests of Georgia, of many millions
of dollars expended by her patriotic citizens. It is
needless for me to say anything iu commendation
of the wisdom of our State in the construction of
this great woik. It has been the means of
developing her resources to a degree that procuie-
le-r the proud appellation of the ‘‘Empire Stat -" of
the South—cementing the bonds of union between
the States Smith, and giving ampler means of pro
tecting herself against both foreign and domestic
foes.
The great difficulty to a correct understanding
of this Road, heretofore, has been that the large
amount of earnings has been annually expanded in
permanent construction and equipment. This has
prevented the real earnings from being paid into
the Treasury, which ought not to have been ex-
pected until the Road had arrived at a point of
completion. It can safely be assumed, that the
period of its completion is so near at hand, that con
struction account can be extinguished in the com
ing year, and deterioration of rails, new depots and
machinery be charged to regular expenge accounts.
In coming to these conclusions, it is only neces
sary to refer to past operations of the Road for
facts, to put the matter beyond much doubt that
the estimate for payments into the Treasury the
coming fiscal year, may be relied upon. Much
has been 6nid of the cost of the W. & A. Railroad
to the State; of the unprofitableness of the invest
ment through mismanagement on the one hand,
and the wastefulness of a lavish expenditure on
the other. One disposed to quibble might indulge
in reply to these allegations in much plausible
special pleading. But no friend of this great
If is ivith great pleasure I state that all the of
ficers, from the highest to the lowest, have with
one accord made every effort tosustain tne in the
administration ofthe affairs of the Road. I have

and advice, and among them are several very able

The Georgia Stale Printing,
A writer iu the Savannah News, signing himself
“W,” has some very severe strictures” on the
manner the State work has been gotten up for the
present session of the General Assembly, especially
the Comptroller’s Report. Not having seen that
document, we are not prepared to judge ofthe
justness of the comment. If what he says of it be
correct, wer egret it more than we otherwise should,
because the Slate printer is a neighbor of ours,
and the priutimg was done in Columbus. The

ofthe time the work, if satisfactorily done, was
much delayed. We recollect that the printers for
D-52 and 1854 did not deliver the laws and journals
till near twelve months after the adjournment of
the session, when it should, and could have been
done within four months. Indeed, if our recollec
tion serves us, the proprietors ofthe Federal
Union, who were printers to the last Legislature,
made the delivery ofthe laws and journals in the
mouth of June, not more than 1(1(1 days after the
adjournment. This is, of itself strong proof of the
wisdom of the Legislature that elected them; and
die present Legislature has shown its good sense
in reelecting them.
I he writer ot this lias had some experience in
Legislative printing, sufficient at least to convince
him _ ot the impracticability of performing the
service away from the Capital.
“WV ideas of shaking off party shackles, and
letting the work to Tom Dick and Harry, can by
no means remedy the evil of which he complains,
j To do the work promptly and well, the printer
; must be provided with material which, between
times, is of but little use, and must keep during
j the session, sufficient force to meet the demands of
j the Legislature, and whose pay must go on, work
or no work. For this reason the pay should not
only be liberal, hut the job should be as permanent
j as party success will admit.
YVe believe in panv rewards to the press as well
I as to individuals. Ours is a political government,
j and there are two parties striving for the mastery,
i I hen why should the dominant party refuse to
] its press the only State patronage it possesses. If
I they do the deserve to go into a minority. We
have seen enough of such policy in Alabama to
! disgust any one not a glutton for such outrages
aud injustice. We felt its stings, and do not desire
j to see a repetition in Georgia, though we cannot
be benefitted by a retention of the present system,
i All that is necessary in Georgia, to remedy the
evil complained of. is to require the printing to be
done at the Capital, and wewill vouch for good
and prompt work.
I A\ e think if the State will continue the Capital
j at such an out-of-the-way place as Milledgeville.
its printers should have a premium to the full
extent of the State printing to remain aud be in
readiness to perform the service.—Columbus Sun.

Delivered ™* of Children-! Herd to Mothers.
to Connecting Roads. \ There is no object in the world more pleasant to
~ “ look upon than a beautiful child. Even the
crustiest of old bachelors must acknowledge this
in his heart, however disappointment may have
red his temper. Unfortunately, however, the
freshness and natural bloom of childhood are often
marred by disfiguring disorders. Sometimes we
see youthful faces blemished with fiery circles,
and looking as if disease had been at work upon
them with a pair of of compasses dipped in red
ochre. Of course every mother recognises this
description of Ringworm, to which the still more
disgusting cutaneous affection known as Scald
Head in next of kin. Probably nine-tenths of us
have had a touch of these unpleasant eruptive
- complaints at one time or other, and most of us
J know ;hat they are not only disfiguring but ex-
fjcessively annoying and painful. We are aware
-’too that most ofthe nostrums recommended for
ihem merely spread and aggravate inflammation,
and that it frequently leads to confirmed disease of
the skin. Under these circumstances it is to he
presumed that all jiare.its who are not conversant
with the wonderful properties of Holloway’s Oint
ment, will be glad to learn, on good authority, that
it is a quick and thorough remedy for Ringworm
and Scald Head as well as for other external dis
eases. 'The testimony which goes to establish the
fact is incontrovcrtable, and every mother who
= wishes to see the faces of her darlings unclouded
-. iby eruptions and their heads encrusted with ex
crescent matter, is entitled to know it.
Professor Holloway has obtained such a reputa
tion throughout the world for his external reme
dies, that his name must of course be familiar to all
our readers: but after all there is no harm in giving
point and force to general commendation by spe
cifying certain descases in which one knowns tiiat
they liave worked wonders. The effect of the
Ointment in cast s of Ringworm and Scald Head,
is hut a specimen of its marvellous operation in all
