In remitting us money be sure to mention, a* the top of your letter, the name of the office at which you receive the paper, and at the bottom write, in a plain hand, your own signature. In directing your address changed, give us the name of the office to which the paper is to be discon tinued, as well as the one to which you desire it changed. When you wish your paper discontin ued, always address us a gentlemanly note, in quiring the amount you are due for arrears, and having settled that, your order will be promptly executed. To refuse the paper at the post office, when you wish it discontinued, is not the proper course to be pursued. When a post master deems it necessary to return a paper to the proprietor, he should be very careful to write on the margin the name of the office. A strict observance of these suggestions, by those to whom they are addressed, will save all concerned a vast deal of unnecessary trouble, and much annoying vexation. Letters from Alabama. Avery intelligent lady friend, formerly a citi zen of Georgia, but now of Alabama, and famil iarly known and beloved throughout this State as an authoress and popular newspaper writer, has kindly consented to give us a series of letters from our sister State. They will be read, with great gratification, by the citizens of both States. Her first letter appears in this issue. Dr. Hauser, of Jefferson, is republishing in our paper an interesting series of articles upon Mu sic, the 2nd No. appears this week. SR. HEARS. We are happy to learn, through a private letter written to a friend in this city, that the health of this distinguished physician and eminent minister, is still gradually improving. He has been out several times, which will be inteiesting news to the public generally, and it is the sincere desire of thousands In Georgia, that he may soon be restored to perfect health. A number of young gentlemen belonging to the flourishing school ofMr. Alexander Wilson, are embarking in the laudable enterprise of starting a youth’s Magazine, to assist in the cultivation and development of their minds. It is a worthy undertaking on the part of the boys, and we are pleased to see them meeting with such general encouragement from the citizens. We invite special attention to the advertise ment, in this paper, of Mr. Ripley, the amiable and gentlemanly proprietor of our crockery store. This is the only regular house ot this kind in the city, and it is really a unique establishment, in which housekeepers may find everything that may be wanted in the way of crockery or glass ware. People from abroad, in the city or in the country, in want of anything of the kind, will re member that this house is the place to have their wishes supplied. Terrible Accusation. A sable daughter of Ham, having been treated with great dismajugnity by someone, came streaming by us in the street a few days since, with crinoline distended to the fullest dimensions of a second-hand hoop, and with eyes resembling a couple of hen’s eggs upon a wheelbarrow of charcoal, when we heard her, with great indigni ty, remark: “he haven't got no gentlemanly turns about him whutsomever.” We regarded it as a very serious charge, and regretted it exceedingly. Milk and Peaches in March. How delightful! How natural! and, as “Lan gum” says, how “malicious”! We enjoyed this luxury full-y last week, through the kind genera osity of our polite townsman, Mr. George H. Daniel, who has one of the largest and handsom est Family Grocery Stores in our city. He has just been receiving large importations of all kinds of family supplies; and among the rest, a large quantity of fresh fruit put up in sealed cans — peaches, damsons, &r. —and his genuine polite ness and liberality prompted him to favor us with a “taste,” for which we return him many thanks. Mr. Daniel is one of our most w r orthy and influ ential citizens. Profiles. Do you wish a perfect likeness of yourself—a daguerreotype of your features just as they are ? Call on our friend Smith, who has recently lo cated in the Holland House, a few doors above our office. Some artists make handsome pictures of ugly persons, but Smith’s Camera Obscura represents you in your trpe colors. If you are handsome, he gives you a handsome picture ; if hard-favored, he gives you an ugly picture, which is certainly the perfection of the art. We return him many thanks for a “ handsome ” likeness of ourself. Mount Carmel. We had the pleasure of meeting, in our sanc tum, a few days since, Rev. Mr. Crawford, of the above named place, and from a short acquain tance formed quite an attachment to him and the good people of his community. His neighbor hood is surely the stronghold of temperance, and is a model section of our State. Among the many interesting facts which he mentioned concerning his neighbors, he stated that they would not dis solve even their camphor in ardent spirits, but used water altogether for that purpose. Why has not the Crusader a larger circulation in that high toned community ? Where is brother Foster ? We announced, sometime since, that we thought there were no dry goods stores in Atlanta, but it was a mistake, for there are two splendid estab lishments, and one of them is the store of J. L. Cutting & Cos. a few doors below Beach &. Root, on the opposite side of Whitehall street. This is one of our most popular houses, is always doing well, but especially at this time, as they are now receiving a very large and varied assortment of beautiful new spring goods. We know this firm to be one of the right kind, and can cheerfully re commend them to the public as eminently wor thy of the highest confidence and a most liberal patronage. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. Our thanks are due Messrs. Toombs and Stephens, for congressional speeches and public documents. Friend Whidby, Recording]Scribe of the Young Men’s Christian Associatin, of Augusta, will accept our thanks for a copy of the first annual report of that Asociation. Our thanks are due many friends for copies of the proceedings of the Grand Divisions of South Carolina, Florida and Eastern New York. Amusements in Atlanta. Our city has been favored with many fine ex hibitions of various kinds this season, and it is a sure evidence of our growing importance and popularity abroad. It is also a mark of cultiva ted taste, on the part of our population, to be qualified to appreciate a dignified and innocent performance, and for these reasons we can but favor them, are happy to have them visit thecity, and when worthy of patronage, we like to see them receive if. We have had, consecutively, during the last four or five weeks, “Crisp’s Gai ety,” Florence and Lady, the Swiss Bell Ringers, the Ravels, and a most excellent Panorama of Dr. Kane’s Arctic Expedition in search of the unfor tunate Sir John Franklin is now on exhibition at the Atheneum. The Painting is a magnificent work of art, is drawn from sketches by Dr. Kane himself, and from its undoubted correctness, is a most worthy and interesting scene. Celebrations in 1959. The present year is destined to witness a revi val of the temperance cause in Georgia, more glorious than any which has been known during the last decade. The tires have only been smoul dering, and are now finding vent which will soon open up a joyful blaze. The people are moving; the dry bones are beginning to shake ; the delu sive spell is wearing away, and theenemy are be ginning to gnash their teeth in rage. Let your watch-word be onward, friends and fellow-labor ers. Contest, with manly struggles, every inch of ground, and the demonism of intemperance shall and will retire before your strong tread. The signs of the times, just now, indicate a truly bright era in the history of our reformation. Old Flewellen Division, at Palmetto, which, for sometime past, was thought to be languishing, has arisen, under the stirring eloquence of the old “War Horse,” like a Phoenix from the ashes, and its prosperity and influence to-day is unsurpassed by any similar Division in the South. Honor and glory are hers, and we only trust she shall never retreat from her present proud position. On the 2d Saturday in next month, she will ex hibit her beauty, magnificence and strength to the public, in a grand celebration and festival. A great time and a” grand display is anticipated, and we earnestly hope everything may favor the movement. Have a memorable time, brethren, and let the wicked enemy see our pride and pomp. Miller Lodge, Knights of Jericho, at Weston, are preparing for a grand display in May ; Bal dwin Raifprd Division, in Jefferson county, jyill also be on hand, as usual, about the Ist day of that month, and we hear of many other fraterni ties which are contemplating revivals of this kind. Let us encourage the members to carry it out. Have a celebration—show yourselves to the peo ple—take more interest in the prosperity of your Division or Lodge, and let the world see that you are not ashamed of your profession. Turn out era masse, and celebrate your anniversaries with all your soul, might and strength. We hope every Division and Lodge in the State will have a grand turn out this year. Mr. Vm. H. Hunter, the Children’s Friend—Agent for the Crusader. We had the pleasure of welcoming this distin guished and popular Sunday School Lecturer into our sanctum a few mornings since, as he was passing through the city on his way to Fayette ville. He is looking as hale and hearty as ever, possesses his usual fund of good humor, and is still thoroughly imbued with faith and* zeal in the good work of his mission. We are happy to announce that we have se cured his services as Agent for this paper, and propose to allow him a liberal share of each new subeription he may obtain, to assist him in the noble cause ofSunday Shools ; hence, those who ntay subscribe to the Crusader through Mr. Hunter, will not only receive the State tem perance, and a popular literary journal, but they will be aiding a most worthy enterprise. Our friend Hunter has also promised to drop us a line occasionally, upon the subject of temperance, intended more especially for our juvenile readers. His articles will be interesting to thousands of his little triends in Georgia and other States. We call the attention of the public, especially to the fact that his Post Office address is now Berzelia. Those who may wish his services, in behalf of Sunday schools or temperance, will ad dress him at that point. National American. We are truly pleased to see that our neighbors are enjoying such a high degree of prosperity, as to enable them to enlarge their tri-weekly. It is, of course, indicative of success, and we are sure the American is eminently Worthy of the most liberal encouragement. We have always regarded it as one of the best political papers in the State, and now, that it is so much enlarged, it will and should command universal attention. The tri-weekly is now, perhaps, the largest in the State, and its able editors commence the new volume with renewed energies. The ready pen and personal popularity of Col. Hanleiter, the proprietor, would, of themselves, secure a large patronage to the paper; but with the aid of his associates, Messrs. Peterson and Slaughter, it can but meet with the greatest success. Our friend Peterson is an energetic writer, possesses a versatile genius, and. all his editorials are pointed, forcible and well written. Friend Slaugh ter possesses an enviable flow of language, and a vivid imagination, which, combined with his sa tiric abilities, make him a most popular writer. We wish each of these editors, together with their excellent paper, abundant success, and warm ly commend the American to the consideration of the public. State Pair of Georgia for 1859. A premium list of the Southern Central Ag ricultural Society, which is to meet in this city in October next, has been laid upon our ta ble. The premiums are attractive, worth striv ing for, and should create much emulation among the farmers, mechanics and labores of all kinds throughout the State. This is an organiza tion which should be warmly cherished and fos tered by the citizens of Georgia, and should never be permitted to languish. The subjoined is a list of the officers for the current year : President. —Hon. D. W. Lewis, Sparta. Vice Presidents. —Gov. J. E. Brown, Gen G. P. Harrison, Savannah. Executive Committee.— Dr Collins, Macon; Gen. J. Brown, Marion county; Col. L. Tumlin, Cass county; J. A. Hayden, Esq. Atlanta; J. H. Newton, Esq. Athens; Dr. J. S. Linton, Athens; Dr. T. Janes, Greene county ; T. J. Smith, Esq. Spar ta; Col. Arnett,Baker county ;.(one to be filled.) Secretary and Terasurer —James Camak, Athens. LAW SCHOOL IN MARIETTA. A movement is on foot, in Marietta. Geo., hav ing for its object the establishment of a law school in that place, during the coming summer, the lectures in which will be delivered by Judge Wm. T. Gould, of this city. The Marietta Ad vocate thinks the movement will most probably be successful. A correspondent of the*same pa per says: His consent has been obtained to enter upon a course of lectures of twelve or fourteen weeks duration, the coming summer, as an experiment, provided forty students can be obtained. lie proposes to give one lecture a day, from sixty to seventy-five minutes in length, and to select out of his regular course the most impor tant and practical subjects of the law—the fee for admittance to be seventy-five dollars per stu dent—a moot court to be held in connection with the course. A meeting of legal gentlemen was held at (he late term of Paulding Court, and a committee ap pointed to make such efforts and arrangements as will secure the estalishment of the school. Thrilling Incident.—At a temperance meet ing in Philadelphia, some years ago, a learned clergyman spoke in favor of wine as a drink, de monstrating it quite to his own satisfaction to be Scriptural, gentlemanly and healthful. When the clergyman sat down, a plain, elderly man arose, and aske-l the liberty of saying a few words. Permission being granted, he spoke as follows : “A young friend of mine,” said he, “ who had long been intemperate, was prevailed on, to the joy of his friends, to take the pledge of entire ab stinence from all that could intoxicate. He kept his pledge faithfully for some time, though the struggle with his habit was fearful, till one eve ning, in a social party, glasses of wine were handed around. They came to a clergyman present, who took a glass, saying a few words in vindication of the practice. “Well,” thought the young man, “it clergymen can take wine and justify it so well, why not I?” So he took a glass. It instantly rekindled his fiery and slum bering appetite, and after a rapid and downward course, he died of delirium tremens—a raving madman !” The old man paused for utterance, and was just able to add —“That young man was my only son, and the clergyman was the Reve rend Doctor who has just addressed the assem bly.”—American Presbyterian. The Temperance Monthly, for February, a neat and handsome journal, printed at McMinnville, Tenn. has been received. It is published by J. Stewart Smith, and the number before us con tains the salutatory of Mr. Geo. E. Purvis, as editor. We welcome it to our exchange list and hope to receive it regularly. The True Gentleman.— He is courteous and affable to his neighbors. As the sword of the best tempered metal is most flexible, so the truly generous are most pliant and courteous in their behavior to their inferiors. THE GEORGIA TEMPER AN GE CRUSADER. Atlanta Lodge, Knights of Jericho. The success and onward progress @f this model temperance organization is unprecedented. It meets on every Saturday night, and there are new accessions at every meeting, and on last Saturday night there were H era initiations—eight intelligent young gentlemen and two ladies. What can be more encouraging ? The Lodge is upon a permanent basis, clear of debt, has a large surplus on hand, and is legally incorporated and invested with all the rights, privileges and po wers which belong to any other independent body. Our worthy Treasurer, Mr. Wm. G. Forsyth, is a most excellent financier, faithful and energetic, and having the interest of the Lodge fully at heart, has managed its pecuniary matters admi rably’well, and placed it beyond all probability of any embarrassment. Our Worthy Chief, the Rev. F. P. Perdue, is a man of sterling integrity, and one in whom we all have the highest confi dence. As presiding officer, Le is unsurpassed, filling his chair in such a manner, as to receive the unanimous approval of every menlber of the Lodge. There are between sixty and a hundred members, ladies and gentlemen who attend reg ularly at every meeting; they are clever, social and intelligent, making it a real pleasure to meet and mingle with them. We have many excel lent, fine looking ladies, both married and single, who meet with us regularly, to participate in our deliberations, and cheer us with their approving, pleasant countenances. They take a deep inter est in the prosperity of the Lodge, which is evi ; dent from their promptness and punctuality in attending, and when the ladies become fully en listed in behalf of any enterprise, success is inev itable. “Three cheers” for our glorious Lodge! It is rapidly progressing towards the grand con summation of the end aimed at, and its present prospects indicate that it will soon reach a posi tion never yet recorded in the history of any tem perance organization. There is yet room for many more accessions, and we are ready, willing and waiting te receive them. Church Temperance Society. The friends of temperance in Boston are begin ning to work in the right direction, and we most feelingly urge it upon temperance Christians in Georgia, to imitate their example. Members of the church are under solemn obligations to their Maker, to themselves and to the world, to aid, encourage and adopt every measure designed to reform, moralize and save the wicked from deg radation and death. Let all our different churches form, immediately, “church temperance socie ties.” See what our friends in Massachusetts are doing. We take the following from the Bos ton Visitor: * We are glad to record the fact that a most im portant step has been taken to cafl into action the influence of the churches of our city, in behalf of the great cause of temperance. We hail this as an omen of better days ahead. Once let the po wer of the church be felt against rum-selling and drinking of the day, and that bane of society will receive its death blow. But we hope this move ment, on the part of the Park street Church, will not be allowed to stop there. Why cannot the other churches take the same commendable course ? Let us see in every religious society of Boston a temperance society. All honor tothose who have originated this movement. Who fol lows next this glorious example ? We have re ceived the following particulars of the organiza tion from a gentleman concerned in the work: New Society. —Sunday evening, 20th, the members of Park street church, and society, met in the vestry, for the purpose of organizing a “Temperance Society,” to be connected with the church and free for all to join. The pastor —Rev. Mr. Stone—opened the meet ing with some remarks showing the sin and folly of the cup, as well as giving ample proof from the Bible of his correctness. He then made some very interesting remarks to young ladies, in which he cordially invited them to come forward and sign the pledge, giving good reasons for so doing. He had heard of one or two instances where young men had refrained from taking the pledge, on the ground that a lady friend of theirs some times challenged them to take a glass of wine, and they did not wish to be pledged, so they should have to refuse. He said he wusiied every young lady of Park street church and society, to set an example worthy of being followed by all the sister churches of New England and the world. Meeting of the State Medical Society. This honored and respectable body will hold its next annual meeting in this city, and the frater nity, here, are anticipating and making prepara tions for the largest demonstration which the pro fession ever had in the State. Extensive preliminaries for a large party or public enter tainment are being transacted, and the probabili ties are, that the doctors of the country will have a grand time of it. We take pleasure in trans ferring to our columns, from the Atlanta Medi cal Journal, the following editorial, by Dr. Lo gan, (one of the ornaments to the profession) in regard to the matter in general: Feeling a deep interest in the welfare of this body, over which the Senior Editor of this Jour nal was called to preside for the present year, we would desire to direct the attention of the pro fession throughout the State to the fact, that it holds its next Annual Meeting in the City of Atlanta, on the second Wednesday in April, 1859. It would be a work of supererogation to go into an argument to prove the advantages of Medecal Associations, and this is not our object, but we feel that something ought to be done to arouse the Medical men of the State from their apparent forgetfulness of the great interests which they have involved in the question, whether the State Medical Society shall be the instrument of the incalculable amount of good, it may be made to accomplish ? We shall not hesitate to say, that in our judg ment, the permanent prosperity of this body far exceeds in value that of the American Medical Association, to the Medical men of the State of Georgia. We regard it as the only real bond of Union in the shape of organization, to the permanency of which, we can look with any confidence, and be sides, as the only rightful guardian of the inter ests of the profession, however heterodox the doctrine may be, to those who look beyond its jurisdiction, for all the power to regulate Medical matters within our borders. We know of no “higher law” in Medicine, than that which emanates from the assembled wisdom and authority, of the large number of Medical men to be found throughout the length and hroadth of this broad Sovereignty. Entertaining such views then, we would desire to urge in the most earnest manner, our Medical brethren from every portion of the Stale to come up in full representation to the Annual Meeting of their Society, assuring them in the name of the Profession of this city, that they will meet with a most cordial welcome. Being placed, as we were, at the most accessi ble point to every portion of the State, we confi dently anticipate the largest meeting since the organization of the Society, and the inauguration of anew and brighter era in its history. In conclusion, we desire to commend the sub ject to the attention ol the various Medical Jour nals of the State, with the request that they will unite with us, in the effort to bring up a large representation to the next meeting of the Society. As there may be some misapprehension upon the part of those who have not heretofore attended the deliberation of this body, in reference to the terms of admission, we would add, that any true Medical man in regular standing, is eligible to membership—without a fee—either upon present ing himself, or being vouched for by some member of the Society. “Come in Joe, and let’s take a drink.” “Thank you, Thomas, can’t afford it.” “Well, but I’ll pay for it.” “0, I’m not speaking of money.” “What then if” “Loss of health and energy, moral principle, character, peace of mind, self respect 1 and sweet breath.” . A farmer said to a barber that lie ought to re duce his prices now that corn is cheap. “No siree,” replied the shaver, for when corn is low, farmers make such long faces that I have twice the ground to go over. A fellow coming out of a tavern, one frosty morning, rather top heavy, he fell on the doorstep; trying to regain his footing, he re. marked: If it is true that the wicked stfind on slippery ground, I must belong to a differenl class, for it is more than I can do.” What is the difference between a butcher and a young lady? Ans.—The former kills to dress, while the lat ter dresses to kill. # A story is told of a person asking whether he would advise him to lend a certain triend of theirs money. “What, lend him money! You might lend him an emetic, and he wouldn’t return it;” The Wine-bottle. —“I think the intimacy which is begotten over the wine-bottle, has no heart,” says Thackery. “I never knew a good teeling come from it, or an honest friendship made by it: it only entices men, and ruins them ; it is not only a phantom of friendship and feeling, called up by the delirious blood and the wicked spells of the vine.” 1 THE TWO ANGELS • There are two angels that attend unseen * Each one of us, and in great books record Our good and eVil deeds. He who writes down The ones, after every action closes His volume, and. ascends with it to God. The his dreadful day-book open Till sunset, that we may repent; which doing, The record.of the action fades away, And leaves a line ot white across ihe page. Now if my act be good, as I believe it, It cannot be recalled. It is already Sealed up in heaven, as a good deed accomplished. The rest is yours. — Longfellow. Isaac Moses, Grand Worthy Patriarch of the Sons of Temperance, of East Tennessee, died at Knoxville on Monday night last. A rolling mill is about to Be established in Ety ton, Shelhy county, Alabama, which will furnish the iron for the North-east and South-west rail road. The Havannah correspondent of the Savannah Republican says that another cargo of Africans, between four and five hundred in number, were landed near Cardenas on the 20th ult. MUSIC. l'Y WM. HAUSER, M. D. OF GA. ’ NO. 11. Reader, you will keep in mind that at our last meeting we resolved ourselves into a singing school. Before I proceed with my lecture, let us sing: “Why stand ye round the threshold : Ye timid ones, draw near ; Sweet words and joyful music Unite in concord here. “But when you come remember The rule by which we stand : No gloomy brow is suffered Amid our happy band. “We cherish ev’ry pleasure Which virtue can approve ; We find delight in loving Whate’er the virtuous love. “Then stand not round the threshold, Ye timid ones, draw near ; Come, mingle with our music In sweetest concord here.” I have but one rule in my singing schools, and that is, you must pay, at all times, the closest possible attention to everything I say. Now if I had a dozen for you, you might, through forget fulness, violate some of them ; and you would be excusable in such a case ; but what say you to a pupil who will violate the only rule his teacher has ? Scurvy fellow, isn’t he < Then be careful, and do not place yourself in the painful predica ment of having to acknowledge to yourself that you have been mean enough to violate the only rule I have in my school. But some of you wish to learn the Violin, oth ers the Flute and others the Piano, Melodeon, &c., &c.; you did not desire to attend so poor a thing as a singing-school. Well, don’t get im patient and fly off in a tangent, for I intend to teach you how to play all these instruments, as well as to sing, before our school closes. Keep in mind my one rule. There are but seven elementary sounds in mu sic, no matter whether birds whistle it, men sing it or play it on any instrument, or God’s grand old ocean roars it. You doubt this, do you ? Very natural you should, for there are thous ands of tunes sung in all the languages of earth; still there are only seven elementary sounds for all the singing and playing that is done. Mr. Jesse B. Aikin, ol Philadelphia, a most ingenious musician, suggested to me that these seven sounds might be made to occupy 5040 different positions. You have learned the rule of Permu tation, (into the Arithmetic a little just now) which shows how to find the number of positions any given number of things may occupy. Thus, Ix2x3x4xsx6x 7=5040. You multiply all the numbers into one another to obtain this re sult. But I shall drop this permutation idea for the present, intending to bring it up again when I shall have taught you the difference between the Diatonic and Chromatic scales of music. The elementary principles of music are the very same, whether you play them on that most curious and noble of all instiuments, your own vocal apparatus, or on a fife, flute, flageolet, ban jo, violin, harp, lute, piano, organ, or any other of man’s invention. If this remark is true, a singing-school, properly conducted, may prove of vast benefit to you ; aud that it is true L intend to Show you fully before I stop. We must learn to sing those seven elementary sounds correctly, as they form the alphabet of all tho music of the world, and then we can learn how to make them on any instrument we take up. I have no eloquent remarks to make you on the general subject of music at this time ; you need no such ; you need thorough elementary instruction first, that you may benefitted practi cally. Further instructions next week. Letters From Alabama. NO. i. Mr. Editor: Something was said, as I gave you the parting hand in Dr. H’s. front parlor, one bitter cold morning last November, about a series of letters from Alabama. Yesterday a copy of the ‘Crusader’ came to band, and I was thereby reminded of your request. But this is a quiet community and, I fear, there are few inci dents occurring in our midst, which will be of any great interest to youc readers. IJpwever, my word is out for the papers—l will write and you can publish or reject as you see proper. How beautifully significant are all Indian names! Alabama is a Creek word and means, “herewe rest.” The poor savage murmured it years ago, when, after having fled before a ruth less foe, he planted his moccasined foot beneath the .blue skies, beside ] the bold streams, and upon the fertile soil of this goodly land. I can almost see him now—his painted face is turned towards the western sun ; his slackened bow string is upon his arm ; his arrows are broken and pointless—for he is just out of a long and bloody warfare ; his blanket is tom and one corner trails in the dust; his straight, black hair flows in wild disorder over his shoulders; his his wife and children have set down upon the jutting rocks, to rest their weary limbs ; there is a tear in the old chieftain’s eye as he looks to wards the goodly hunting grounds from which he has been driven—but at this a moment a deer bounds gracefully over the distant hills. The old man’s eye brightens at the sight; his bow slips upon his arm and one end of it rests in the sand at his feet. “Alabama !” he shouts to the remnant of his tribe, now slowly heaving in sight, “Alabama !” flies in tones of gladness from lip to lip, and the land is christened forever, the resting place of the weary. But alas ! poor red man ! For a few brief sum mers the smoke of his wigwam curled gracefully througli the blue air; his wife planted the maize fields—he angled in the streams, and brought his game home from the chase. The green corn dan ces here were very merry, and what Palestine was tdthepoorlsraelite after his forty years’ wander ing, Alabama became to the foot-sore and storm beaten Creek. But the step of the aggressor was soon upon the sod. There is no trace of the wigwam to be seen here now, altho’ a few years ago there was an old chieflan’s hut, standing on the bank of the river, not far below where I am now writing. It was to me a sight full of inter est. I visited it in the Spring time, when the peach trees wore their beautiful coronals of flow ers, and tints of verdure were faintly showing themselves upon the boughs of the hoary old for est oaks. A wild young vifie crept up and com pletely mantled its sides, thus giving to it out side, somewhat the appearance of an arbor, and within there was still to be seen the pegs where he hung his venison over the fire to dry, and an elevated place in one corner, whore he spread his deer skin at night. I thought, as I stood there how that rude pile of poles had witnessed (if any thing inanimate can be said to witness) the joy and sorrow, the love and hatred, the hopes and fears, almost the extinction of a powerful race. Will the time ever come, when a mightier peo ple than we, shall thus stand and rehearse our strange customs and muse over our desolated homes ? Or are we secure, because the strong voice of prophecy foretold ages ago, that the white browed children of Japheth should dwell in the tents of Shem, and Ham! (alas, for poor Ham!) he was to be the servant. How Btrong was that eye, which, when gating forward through centuries, and into what was then an unknown country, could so exactly see what was to trans pire in our day and generation. But speaking of the river, reminds me to tell you, Mr. Editor, that the Tallapoosa is to me, at this point, one of the most delightful streams in the world. I could wander all day upon its banks. I saw it years ago, when it was one broad, glossy sheet of water, unbroken by dam or millwheel. “But,beautiful as ere, They make it labor now; Yet much enraged [at such constraint, Away it glideth, big with grief, To bieathe its piteous oomplaint To every sympathising leaf.” I have made inquiries in regard to the name of this stream. Those who are best versed in In dian nomenclature, say that it has some refer ence to the finny tribes which abound in its depths. Be that as it may*there are fine fish to be caught here. Next summer, when the red brick walls of At lanta glow like a furnace, and Whitehall street is clouded with dust—when the sky overhead is like brass, and scarcely a breeze slirs the gossa mer upon the trees which shade your sidewalks, how pleasant it will be here among the green vines, the cool old mossy rocks, and tail trees upon the banks. How pleasant it will be, stand ing at the ford, and watching the ferry-man just above, while his hand glides along the large wire, and his “flat” with its freightage ot white meal bags, patient oxen, country carts, horses, horsemen, foot travellers or school children, glides to the opposite shore, and then, when the sun has darted his last golden arrow into the sparkling wave, and gone down through clouds of crimson and gold, on his mission to another hemisphere—when the stars came out, one by one, and the air is full of balm and dew, and the early, evening fires glow through all the doors and windows of the little houses, which skirt the way, how pleasant the homeward walk ! All this quiet, rural beauty, stirs my soul like music. Suppose you bring Mollie and “the boy” over here, next summer, and enjoy it with me. Mrs. Bryan must come too ; I love her because she writes so charmingly ; and Mr. V. I guess, would find prettier blue flag flowers here than I used to see in his hands last summer, when he was re turning from his evening rambles. But I am at the end of my sheet, and must close. KATE. [For the Crusader.] Mr. Editor: In the dearth of temperance news, prevailing at present, it may not prove un acceptable to receive some recollections and sug gestions from an old campaigner, in relation to the history of the temperance reformation in Geor gia during the last few years. Within the past four years, there has undoubtedly been a back ward movement in the cause, and it certainly is the part of wisdom, as well as of policy, to trace that retrogression, if possible, to its true cause, in order that we may retrace our steps, and regain our losse?. That this may be done, it is the du ty of every true friend of temperance to con tribute his mite of information, or opinion, how ever small, so that the truth may be eliminated from the aggregate. With this view, I give you my opinion, not because I think it entitled to very great weight, but that it may induce discussion and inquiry; and if I am wrong, my error may enlist soni6 abler pen in the cause of truth. I be lieve, then, that the prime cause—that which lies at the yery bottom of our present declension, was uniting the legal suasion principle with the mor al, and, as a consequence of that, sotting up our selves as a separate party to elect a Governor. How any association of sensible men could have been so demented as to suppose that this could be accomplished, it is difficult to conceive, and yet truth compels the writer to confess that he was one of the_demented, who voted for Overby in spite of party ties and party associations. There were, however, at that time, several causes, which conspired to induce the friends of temperance to hope that success was attainable. The temperance reformation in Georgia has been for several years a grand success. Lecturers had canvassed the State from one extreme to the oth er, and aroused the people to action, while they disseminated among the masses an amount of information upon this subject, which they had not before possessed. The subject in all its bear ings, and with all the light that modern discove ries had thrown around it, was brought home to the people, pressed upon their attention, and urged upon them, with the power of truth and the zeal of enthusiasm. Prominent among these no ble advocates—indeed “primus inter pares”— stood, as now stands, Uncle Dabney, justly styled the “Blucher of the temperance reformation in Georgia.” His genial temper, his sunny smile, his frank and manly bearing, his singleness of purpose, his stirring appeals, his apt but homely comparisons, his humorous illustrations, his life like portraitures, and, above all, that high and holy enthusiasm that prompted him to forego domestic comfort, endure toil, incur pecuniary loss, and make a sacrifice, a willing sacrifice, ot his time, his talents and his labors for the ad vancement of ot the cause, because he believed it to be the cause of humanity and of God—made him a general favorite among all classes, and dis armed the prejudices even of his opponents. Then there were Duryee, Elam, Renneau, Hewlett, Gresham, Brantly and a host of Others, some in a wider, others in a narrower sphere, engaged in the same glorious work; and under the influence of their appeals, a kindred euthusiasm was exci ted in the minds of the people, and willing hearts and strong hands were everywhere enlisted to push forward the car of temperance. Organiza tions were formed all over the State ; Divisions ol the sons sprung up in almost every village, from the seaboard to the mountains, and “Love, Purity and Fidelity,” became household words in Georgia. Public opinion was gradually changed, until the general sentiment of the peo ple was in favor of temperance, and even those who withheld their aid from the movement, and some who practically opposed it, expressed them selves in its favor. The friends of the cause be lieved that it had gained such firm footing in the State, was so firmly engrafted upon the senti ments of the people, that a majority would be in favor of suppressing the evils resulting from the liquor traffic, and even the traffic itself, by the direct interposition of Legislative authority. Added to this, there had been a very general con fusion among political parties, a disruption ofold party ties, and an effacing of old party lines. The old Whig and Democratic parties had been merged into the “Constitutional Union party, on the one hand, and the Southern Rights party on the other; and the occasion which gave rise to these last organizations having passed away, the wave of popular feeling had not yet taken a defi nite direction. Parties, if they had any existence, were only in a semi-chaotic state, just emerging inro life. All the old party issues had been de cided, and there was no question of national pol icy, then pending, sufficiently important to array the people into parties. In this interregnum, it was thought that the temperance principle was of sufficient importance, and strong enough to form the nucleus around which a party could be rallied, embodying a majority of the voting population of the State. The matter had been discussed among the more enthusiastic leaders, and they thought the circumstances j ustified the experiment. They had been familiar with the progress of the tem perance movement from its inception ; they had seen its beginning in the rapid rise of the Washingtonians, and when that particular or ganization had discharged its office, and begun to retrograde they had seen the institution of the Sons of Temperance spring up, like a Phoenix from its ashes, and spread itself with astonishing ra pidity among all ranks and classes in the state ; and now, they thought another step forward should be taken; and what measure could be more important, than that which would wipe from the statute book of Georgia the legal sanc tion of the liquor traffic? Under these circumstan ces, the State temperance convention met at Athens,'and the subject was very soon intro duced into their deliberations. The direction which the temperance movement was likely to take, had become pretty generally known, and the more prudent of its friends were fearful of the issue. At this meeting was handed in the resig nation ofHon. Jos. Henry Lumpkin, as President of the convention, a position which he had woi thily held almost (if not quite) from the first or ganization of the convention. It was accompa nied with a letter to the convention, in which (the writer relies upon memory alone) he professed the same fealty to the cause, that he had for years so steadily manifested, and the same abiding faith in its ultimate triumph ; but deprecated the misguided zeal, which would hazard all we had gained by years of continued effort, in the vain attempt to secure that legislation for which the sentiment ot the people was not yet ripe; and offered some suggestions as to the proper policy to be adopted. But the temper of the convention, at least of a large portion of it, was unsuited to moderate counsels. Some adopted the views of their president, and warmly urged them upon the convention; while others scoffed at the idea of adopting such tame measures, charged the retir ing officer with fear of public opinion, with a lukewarmness, engendered, perhaps, by his re cent associations, and some even hinted that he might have proved false to his early, faith. The discussion, for a temperance convention, was rather an excited one. All were anxious to adopt that plan which would best promote the success of the cause, but they differed widely as to the plan itself. On the one side, was Rev. Jos. Gresham, who had just retured from the meeting of the National Division at Chicago, and whose soul, naturally ardent, had been fired anew by association with the master-spirits of the tem perance movement in the Union. Os a naturally enthusiastic temperament, he made his confidence in the success of the cause a part of his religious faith, and believed nothing impossible to those who, with a firm reliance upon Providence, would make no compromise with alcohol, but strike boldly for victory. He acted upon the principle, that “all things are possible to him that believes.” Then there was Uncle Dabney, who had lived in a temperance element so long, that he almost be lieved it to be the natural air of his native State; and who had become so much accustomed to see the forces of alcohol retire before his attacks, or surrender to his broadsides, that he thought it was only necessary to get the old Prince into a general fight, in order to rout him completely. Uncle Ben was there too, whose “Banner” had been waving so long over the temperance host, that the possibility of its being borne by a re treating force, never entered his mind. In the privacy of his sanctum, and through the columns of his paper, he had been accustomed to converse only with the friends of temperance; and the communications which he received, were gener ally such as heralded the success of the cause in particular localities, and breathed high hopes of final triumph. These were the leaders, men whose fidelity to the cause was neverquestioned, but yet men who had not been accustomed to mingle indiscriminately with all classes of the peo ple, and learn their temper and sentiments. There were others who maintained the same opinions, and the same measures, and I am disposed to think that on a fair division, they would have • constituted a majority of the convention proper. On the other side were Hull, Peeples, Key and some others, and, I think, Dr. Hoyt, who warmly es poused the views of the late President of the con vention, and some of them vigorously opposed the passage of any resolution, which demanded direct legislative prohibition. The views of the lat ter prevailed by a dexlerious use of the previous question. But though the convention, as such, adopted no resolution, demanding prohibitory legislation, the question was fairly sprung, and from this beginning resulted the nomination of Mr. Overby for Governor in the following year. In the mean time, the chaotic elements in the po litical world had been gradually assuming a mere definite shape; anew organization had been making unseen but rapid progress, and out of the elements of the old Whig, Democratic, Consti tutional Union and Southern Rights parties, arose the modern Democratic and Amerian parties, each fairly organized upon new issues, but both ■ ignoring the existence of the temperance party. Mr. Overby was nominated avowedly upon the principle that prohibitory legislation was not only constitutional and expedient, but that it was im -1 peratively demanded by the wants of the people. 1 The campaign opened, and just here we began to see the foreshadowings of the deplorable retro gression which wa have since experienced. One of the first evil consequences which resulted from our change of tactics, was the idea upon which all seemed practically to act, though none ex pressed it in words, viz : that moral suasion was ‘functus officio’—dead; and that there was no use in making any further efforts to reform the drunkard, until we first laid the strong arm of the law upon the rumseller, and deprived him of the power of undoing our work. Accordingly, the division rooms were generally deserted, and the means which had been so successful in pro moting the cause of moral reform were gradually abandoned, until the Divisions themselves died out, one by one, and so quietly, that though.they were certainly dead, no one could tell the precise time of their demise. Another evil consequence was, that it gave our enemies and our lukewarm friends a pretext for charging us with inconsistency. In the begin ning, we utterly disclaimed the idea of resorting to any other means of promoting the temperance reformation, than kind words, sound arguments and brotherly love, and this really was the posi tion maintained by the “Sons,” as such, to the last; but because some—a majority, if you please —of the Sons chose to exercise their right, as cit- iz.ens of the State of Georgia, to advocate a par ticular line of policy, the enemies of the order and of the cause refused to see thedistinction between what they did as Sons of Temperance, and what they did as individual citizens, and willfully per sisted in attributing to the order, the opinion and principles of some of its members. Consequently, the Sons had to bear the odium of this movement for prohibition, and the additional charge of hav ing acted in bad faith in the first instance, in or der to seduce the unsuspecting into their meshes. Thus were the energies of the Sons crippled by their own indifference, and their progress impe ded by the prejudices excited against them by their enemies. When their influence was neu tralised, the only efficient temperance organiza tion was destroyed. These causes, combined with the known partiality of our people for polit ical party organizations, conspired to array an overwhelming opposition to the temperance move ment; nay, it even forced into opposition many, who, under ordinary circumstances, would have acted with us, because in the then position of things, they were obliged to act in opposition ei ther to us or to their ‘parly associates, and though they loved not “Ctesar less, they loved Rome more,” and so they helped to kill Cresar. The consequence was, that our candidate was not shamefully, but gloriously beaten, and the vote in round numbers was taken as the index of the strength of the temperance cause in Georgia. A secondary consequence was, that many, who had begun to look favorably upon the movement, be cause it was thought to be growing popular, felt no hesitation now in openly condemning it, on the principle—“ Kick him ;he has no friends.” Well, what has been the general result? Why, nearly all the Divisions are dead, and those that live, are dragging out a sort of living death, with just vitality enough to prevent decomposition, but not sufficient to promote healthy growth. There are no Washingtonian societies, and the voice of a temperance lecturer is like an echo of the past. Under these circumstances, what is tobe done ? Givo up the ship ? And because we have failed once, fold our hands and say, tee cant l Nay; let us rather retrace our steps, return as speedily as possible to the old paths, re-organise the Wash ingtonian societies, revive the Divisions of the Sons, brush away the cob-webs from the old Di vision rooms, and, in “Love, Purity and Fidelity,” once more enter the lists against the fell destroy er of our race. Let legislation alone; we have tried that again and again, and always without success. It is time we had learned that legisla tive enactments are worth nothing, except ns they reflect the sentiments of the people; and that any law, even if such an one could be enacted, that is in advance of the moral sentiment of those who are to be governed by it, would be a dead letter upon the statute book. If the moral sense of the people be sufficiently elevated to justify legisla tion, they, themselves, will demand it, and the demand, when thus made, will not be in vain. I am glad to hear that Uncle Dabney is once more in the field, and I herewith send him, through you, not only a well-done, but a hearty Godspeed from his old friend, RUSTICUS. Bairdstown, Ga. March Ist, 1859. “If you wish to make a shoe of durable mate rials,” said the facetious Laneepurg,“you should take the upper part of the mouth ot a hard drink er, for that never lets in water.” The Weldon (N. C.) Patriot says that two thousand negroes passed through that place dur ing the month of January, and not less than fifty thousand, it is informed, went into the cotton re gions during the last year. A Reasonable Guess. —A tipsy Irishman, who was leaning against a lamp-post, as afuneral procession was passing by, was asked who was dead? “Can’t exactly say, sir,” saixl he_*.“but presume it is the gentleman in the coffin.” At a late trial, the defendant, who was not fa miliar with the number of words which the law employs to make a trifling charge, after listening awhile to the reading of the indictment, jumped up and said : “them ar allegations is false, and that ar alligator knows it.” A New York letter says: A man was arrested yesterday, charged with skinning a horse, which he intended to se'lffor meat, to the poor people in the viciniiy. He appeared to be quite astonished, that he should be taken into custody at all. His wife said that they often made good soup of horse flesh, and they had found it first-rate. There is a world where storms neverjntrude— a heaven of safety against the tempestsrof little world of enjoyment and love, of innocTOce and tranquility. Suspicionsare not there, nor the venom slander. When a man enters it he for gets his sorrows, and cares and disappointments ; he opens his heart to confidence ana pleasures, not mingled with remorse. This world is the name of a virtuous and amiable Mother. Louisiana Sugar Crop. — The New Jrl eans True Delta, of a late date, sums up the sugar crop of 1858, at 326,482 hhds. of which 181,621 have already been received, leaving 144,861 yet to go forward. Os the number received 85,516 hhds. were shipped by sea from Franklin and New Orleans, and 96,104 up the river. Assuming that the balance of the crop will be shipped in the same proportion, the True Delta calculates that the amount of the crop yet to come up the Mis sissippi is 74,400 hhds. sugar, and 150,000 bbls. molasses. How many common figurative expressions in our language are borrowed from the art of carpen try, may be seen in the following sentence: “The lawyer who filed a bill, shaved a note, cut an ac quaintance, split a hair, made an entry, got up a case, framed an indictment, impannelledvti jury, put them into a box, nailed a witness, hammered a judge and bored a whole court, has since laid down law and turned carpenter.” A Man Hung by a Corpse. —The Cimfinna ti Gazette says that on Saturday night last, a body snatcher who had stolen a corpse from a grave yard in the neighborhood of that city, which he had placed in a bag, was hung while endeavoring to get over a high fence, the corpse falling on one side and the body snatcher on the other, he hav - ing placed around his shoulders the cold by which the sack was shut, and the cord slipping about his neck, choking him to death. The weekly statement of the New York banks, to Feb. 28th, shows a decrease in loans of one million six hundred and ten thousand dollars; decrease in circulation, thirty ihousand dollars ; decrease in net deposits, eight hundred and twenty thousand dollars; increase in specie, one hundred aud twenty-five thousand dollars. The Macon (Geo.) Telegraph understands, from a reliable source, that the Charleston and Savan nah railroad will be completed by the Ist of April, 1860. That paper says: Col. ElraVton, the very efficient President, has recently made an arrangement by which funds have been obtained to finish the road. The contracts lor the draw bridge over the Savannah river will be shortly let out, and in thirteen months from the present day, we tnay breakfast in Macon and supper in Charleston. ATLANTA MARKET.
