ST" The Hon. S. A. Smith, of Tenn., passed through our citv, yesterday afternoon, on his way home. *_4»- Hon. Howell Cobb passed through our citv on Thursdav niirht, on his way to M asbington citv. Bev. W. H. -Mtlburu. This gentleman delivers another lecture at the Masonic Hall this evening. The subject is 'Young America,” which we learn is one of his most popu lar and effective lectures. Rev. Mr. Howell The Street Preacher. This gentleman is announced to preach at the Upper Market house, on Sunday morning, at nine . ' •lock, and at thqgLovrer Market house on the -ame afternoon at four o'clock. Mr Howell attracts large congregations by the novelty of his preaching, and then delivers good, sound, moral and Scriptural sermons to them, lie appears to be a very sincere, quiet and devoted laborer in the evangelical cause, and although be eschews every thing Sectarian, there is doubtless a large field in which his efforts may prove of much good to society. The Arrest on Thursday. Yesterday, E. V. P. Hawes and Arcrsrt's Cart- LttiuE, were brought up before \V Milo Olin, Esq., the committing Magistrate, charged with the ot fence of an assault with ail intent to murder, -ti ter hearing testimony and counsel, they were com mitted to jail, in default of bail— Hawes' bond 6- O', and Cahtledge’s bond £2000.; This was the offence, referred to in our paper yesterday morning, in which Mr. Christian wa shot at in arresting the parties.

McKinne Aleeting in the Fourth Ward. A portion of the citizens of the Fourth Ward, convened on the evening of the 9th inst., Mr. H A. Btrd was in the Chair, and Mr. W. H. Rui acting as Secretary. The following resolution wa offered by Dr. J. M. Hill, and adopted: R eal •), That the Chairman of this meeting ap point a Committee of three, with instructions u address a note to 11. F. Hall, W. 11. Stark, and W. H. Goodrich, Es«ps., candidates to represent tin Fourth Ward in the next Council, and also to Gen. G. W. Evans, the candidate for Mayor at the next charter election, requesting an expression of theii views upon the subject of subscription to the stock of the Savannah Valley railroad, with permission to publish t.fia same, and snid ( ■ unmittpa to mat.' their report to a subsequent meeting. We put ourselves to some little trouble to ob tain a copy of the above resolution, as it has pro duced quite a stir in tl.e circle of the aspirants sot municipal honors. We were not able to obtain tin answw of any of the gentlemen interrogated, an question very much whether any has been made. We think it not at all improbable, however, that liie issue involved will be very carefully waived until after the result of the election, at which tiine lt will be rather too lute to enter an appeal. This matter will he brought to the considera tion, we presume, of the meeting called in the fourth ward to-night. If there are any communi cation'* from the candidates, they will doubtless he read to that meeting. Mr. T. *. I’iggot’s Letter. The following letter was received from Mr. T. S. Piooot, yesterday, and we give it an insertion as requested : Augusta, April 11th, 1856. James Gardner, Esq. —Dear Sir: Allow me to return my thanks for your courtesy in giving place to my communication of the 26th tilt., and again to occupy your columns with a few lines in reply to your remarks of the 29th ult. \ou evidently labor under a misapprehension as to the charges made by the New York Pres- Your illustration inregard to “travellingexpenses” is therefore not apposite. You surmise that the Association send their news first from New York to Philadelphia, charging Philadelphia with the tolls fi- .m New York ; that the Philadelphia Agent re-sends the news to tlie Baltimore Agent, who charges the Baltimore Press as though he paid tolls direct from New York, and that the same system of charges is carried out to New Orleans, thereby yielding the Association an immense pro fit, and throwing all the burdens of their expensive arrangements upon the press South of New York. Nothing car. be more erroneous than this supposi tion. The Philadelphia press barely jiav enough to pay the tolls from New York: the Baltimore Press are only charged with the tolls from Phila delphia, not from New York, as vou imagine'), and the Washington Press pay only from Baltimore. In the same manner, J only charge the Press of Augusta, Columbia, Savannah and Charles ton, sums amounting in the aggregate to some thing less than the tolls upon messages re ceived from the nearest points. North and South, where we have agents, the deficiency being made upfront my receipts from parties South of Augus ta. You thus perceive that scarcely anything is derived from the presses South of New York, to wards the payment of the salaries of agents, and the other large expenses of the New York press for Halifax news. Ac. Tou aty uls„ mistaken in supposing that the amount of news received bv me is also iutended Sor New Orleans and other points South. This i* so tar from being the case, that we could furnish all our customers South of Augusta just as satisfacto rily and r ady, as cheaply to them from New York or Washington, as from' Augusta or Columbia— their messages being so briet that the difference iu tolls would be of slight consideration. * tWith these explanations, I take leave of the sub ject, and subscribe mvself very respectfully, Ac. T. S. Piggot, Agent N Y. Associated Press. A perusal of the above letter would induce the belief that the revenues of the Agents of the Asso ciated Press wore very limited—that “ the Phila delphia F’ress barely pay enough to pay the toils from New York,” and “that scarcely any tiling is derived from the presses South of New York, to wards the payment of the salaries of Agents,” Ac. Y\ e may possibly labor under some pecuniary de lusion in tills matter, but the monthly payments “' a '“ ‘‘ lP Agent Irons the Press of Savannah and Augusta, and other cities, so far as we are concern ed, leates a void in our money chest that confronts the assertion of Mr. Piggo: very conclusively So far as the charges to the press of the various cities are concerned, we know that the Augusta and Savannah press receive the same messages, and that the Savannah press pay from Columbia, and the Augusta press pay from Columbia, al though but on-. despatch is sent We consider it a le gitimate conclusion, that the same principle pre. vails North and South. But we Lave no disposi tion to say more at present. Recent Elections. When the Know Nothing Councils and party were in the full tide of prosperity, we could hear of nothing from their papers, or receive any tele graph accounts of their progress, but what com municated the success of “Sam.” But now, the papers seldom mention them ; and alone, its name is never heard. When they form a fusion with the Black Republicans, they can occasionally get up a shout, woefully fringed, however, with aTsort of melancholy wailing. From their first jubilant tone, in which they appeared to be very success ful in their contests, and when they were shout ing that “Americans roust rule America, ’ they have condescended to qualify the phraseology of their battle cry, and adopt one that expresses the sentiment “That the Democratic party shall not triumph and rule in this countrv.’’ In the recent elections in Connecticut, the Know Nothings were fearful of uniting with the Black Republicans. They felt satisfied it would pro mote the success of the Democratic ticket, and hence they, in a great measure, kept up their in dependent organizalion, and the result shows that it is very probable there has been no election of State officers by the people. The complexion of the Legislature exhibits the strength of the Demo cratic partv in Connecticut, as the accounts we have received show that it will require the union of all the opposition elements in the Senate and House to control the strength of the Democracy, if even that combination can effect it. The last Legislature of Connecticut were politically classi fied thus : In the Senate seventeen Know Nothings and four Democrats—in the House, one hundred and thirtv-five Know Nothings, sixty-six Demo crats, and twenty-six Whigs. In Rhode Island, the Democratic party have gained immensely upon the elections of 1855, when the Know Nothing storm swept over the State. Last year, the Know Nothing Governor, Hoppin, was elected by a majority of eight thousand four hundred and thirty-six votes; and out of about one hundred members ofthe Legislature, the Dem ocrats had five —two in the Senate and three in the House. But this year, although we have not yet received full returns, enough is known to au thorize the statement, that the Democratic party have gained thousands m the popular vote, and largely increased their power in the Legislature. In New Hampshire, at the late elections, the Democracy exhibited a strength and determina tion which augur favorably to their success in the Presidential election. In 165"), the Know Nothing. Whig and Freesoil majority, on the popular vote, was ten thousand three hundred and thirty-nine ; but in 185*5, the majority was reduced to two thou sand seven hundred and twenty-eight votes, show ing a gain of seven thousand six hundred and seventy-one votes in favor of the Democracy in one year, in a voting population of sixty-five thousand. The following is the recapitulation of the vote for Governor, for 1855. 1856. Know Nothing, Ac ">7,455 34,170 Democratic vote 37,056 31,4-12 10,399 2,728 The legislature of 1855 was largely Republican and Know Nothing, while the recently elected body consists in the Senate of four Democrats and eight opposition, and in the House 146 Democrats and 167 Know Nothing Republicans. In the State Council the Democrats have two members, and the opposition three. Milwaukir Election’s. - We learn from the Mil waukie News, of the 2d inst., that the Democrats have carried everything before them m that city beatmg the Know Nothing and Black Republican fusion ticket in every ward, by overwhelming ma jorities, Ths Democratic Triumph in Chicago.- 1 p on a direct and unequivocal issue between the Democratic and Abolition Know Nothing parties, the Democrats carried the city of Chicago, on Monday, 4th March, by some five hundred majori ty. This is a great triumph, inasmuch u>, for some time past, Chicago has been deemed the hot bed of Freesoilism and Know Nothingism in the North-west. Sr. Louis, April S.—Mr. Home, the Democratic Mayor, and the whole Democratic ticket, have been elected by a large majority, showing plainly that Know Nothingism cannot exist in the South or West. Cleveland, Ohio, April 8. —The elections here yesterday, resulted generally in favor of the Dem ocrats. Know Nothingism is on its last legs Fhe Nebraska-Kansas Hill Are Fiil muie ami Iljiit lsen tor it ( The Macon Journal d- Messenger lias committed itself unreservedly to the support of the Know No hiug nominees. Whether they approve the Ne braska-Kansas bill, or in the language of the Con vention that nominated them, denounce the repeal >f the Missouri Compromise, seems a matter of in hfferenee to that paper. It tints speaks “Our Nominee — Our Platform.- -Where do Fdl nore and Donelson stand ? What is their platform >f principles? They stand where they did in 1850, upon the great adjustment measures of that •rear, which the Georgia Mate Convention and the ■wo National Presidential Conventions, solemnly declared was a final settlement, in principle and substance, of sectional differences, ‘of the subjects they embraced.’ To this platform is Mr. Fillmore .•oninntted by bis public professions and official ■cts. To this platform is Major Donelson solemn ly pledged over and over again in the Washington Union, of which he was the ‘statesman-like’ edi tor, in the crisis of ISSO-’sl. “But are they in favor of the Kansas-Nebraska measure? We don’t know, nor do we care.” Let those who are yet uncommitted mark this language. The only formidable opposition to the Democratic party will be front those who opposed ihat great measure, and erv out for the restoration of the Missouri Compromise. Know Nothingism and Black Republicanism at the North will join forces and fuse on this ground, in opposition to the National Democracy. South ern Know Nothingism is rapidly drifting in the same direction. Political leaders of the southern wing of Know Nothingism, solicitous only for the defeat of the | Democratic party, bv whatever means, may be in ■Uffej’cnt as to the views of the candidate they sup port on the Nebraska-Kansas bill, but the people of tlie South do care what those views may be. They will support no candidate who is not distinct ly committed in support of that great measure. Tliis support will not he left to inference. Any at tempt at dodging or non-committal -m will he scoffed at and spurned. On the vital qo-dions in volved, a double dealing game cannot bo suffered. Any effort to run a ticket with two fact , one for 'he North, the other for the South, will be con j detuned as a fraud, and will miserably fail alike i mioug the friends and opponents of the Nebraska Kansas act. A Word of Friendly Advice. It 1 1 allowable say: the Richmond En poinr ( that the claims of the several candidates for the Cin cinnati nomination should be pressed with zeal bv their respective partisans ; but depreciation of the pretensions of rival aspirants can only result in detriment to the interests of the Democracy. No man can promote the fortunes of Ins favor ite by assailing another person ; but he will rouse incorrigible prejudices where he means to com ili ; ate support, and will rally a relentless opposition against the friend whom lie professes to serve. Meanwhile, personal detraction will inflame un : appeasible resentments in tlie bosom of the De : mocracv, and jeopard the final success of the part v. It any one of the eminent men who are supposed ;o have an eye to the nomination of tlie Demoerat | ic parte were obnoxious to serious objection in the i South, it would be proper to expose his weakness. ! They are all sound, and perfectly acceptable to the most scrupulous sticklers for the rights of the 1 South. It would be simply absurd iu anv man to : attempt to impeach the fidelity of Pierce, Buchan an, Hunter, Douglas, or Wise, in any event the : South will have an acceptable candidate. With this assurance the masses of the Democracy look with aversion on any effort to promote the inter ests of one aspirant at the expense of another. ! Every man may have a decided preference, but no man should express a decided hostility. The pros pect looks bright enough, but the surest chances <! success may be thrown away bv disputes and divisions amongst ourselves It is better to culti v ate p ar mony by protestations of respect and kind ness for our competitors. Hon. Eduard R. Harden. The Athens Banner, of 10th inst., says: “We are pleased to welcome in our Sanctum our friend j the Hon. E. R. Harden, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Nebraska, now on visit to our j town. His many friends who have with pleasure seen the flattering notices of him by the Nebraska press, will be glad to know of his good spirits and health. He intends, we understand, to return to Nebraska about the Ist of June. s3g~ We learn that the Jury of Inquest, held j over the body of Joseph Kiddle, found in the Sa- j vannah river, about seven miles below this city, j after examination, returned a verdict that the de ceased came to his death from wounds in the throat inflicted with some sharp cutting instru ment, and that his body was afterwards thrown into the river. We presume the proper authori ties will institute such further inquiry as may be necessary, to endeavor to find out the party or parties who committed this deed. There is an esculent controversy going on in some of the New York papers, between Wm. K. Prince, of Flushing, and Wm. Clift, on the merits ofthe Chinese Sweet Potatoe. Many ad vantages are claimed for the potatoe, which, if true, will, in a few years, cause its very general introduction into the South, to the displacement of all the ordinary varieties cultivated here. One of the great objections attending those ordinarily planted, is the liability to rot, while it is claimed for the Chinese variety that it will keep sound in the ground, and not be affected by the frost all the winter, and can be dug at any time. The price at which the Chinese tubers is held, amounts al most to a prohibition to even their introduction among us. However, there are always enthusias tic as well as enterprising cultivators, and it will not be long before we will be able to hear some ; home testimony in relation to the matter. “ The -Eronaut Godard ascended in a balloon at Havana on the 24th March, and came down near Mariauoa, having made a very successful ascent. He was announced to make another ascension on the 30th March, in company with six otherpersons, each paying him three ounces for their serial passage j money.

Knowing, from experience, the valuable qualities oi Dr. M'lane's Vermifuge and Liver Pills, pre pared by Fleming Bros., Pittsburgh, I have for some time back considered it my duty, and made it my business, to make those articles known wher ever I went among my friends. A short time ago I became acquainted with the case of a young girl, who seemed to lie troubled with worms and liver complaint at the same time, and had been suffering Inr some two months. Through my persuasion she purchased one bottle of Dr. SP Lane's Vermifuge, and one box of Liver Pills, which she took accord ing to directions. The result was, she passed a large quantity of worms, and thinks that one box more of the Pills will restore her to perfect health. Her name and residence can be learned bv calling "ii E. L.

They have made every effort to mrange it in such ! a manner as to render their guests comfortable. And having had a long experience, they do not in tend to be excelled by any landlord. The Furniture, as well as the House, is perfectly new. Those acquainted with the topography of Geor gia, know that within her limits exist some of the most sublime and magnificent works of Nature, and Stone Mountain justly ranks as one of the number. Southerners who wish to spend their summers at the South, instead ot going North, will find the cli i mate bracing, and the water pure as the purest. The climate is not surpassed. The proprietors flatter themselves that those who i cal! once, will be well enough satisfied to call again. ; Georgia Railroad Trains stop for Supper at I this House.

FARRELL’S CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT IS well known to possess the most wonderfully . healing, penetrating and stimulating properties, and bv its promptness in effecting cures, which previously had resisted all other medicines, ad ministered by the most scientific physicians, has placed it far beyond any similar remedy ever in trodueed to the people of the United States. It stimulates the absorbents to increased action, and thus enables nature to throw off' disease— it jjene trates to the bones, adding strength and activity to the muscles it is powerfully anodyne and thereby aVui/s nervous irritation, producing a dtdightfaVa pleasing sensation through the whole frame. Owing to its remarkable antieeptic properties, it purifies and neutralizes that poisonous, corrosive principle which renders old ulcerous sores so difficult to heal; it therefore is peculiarly adapted to their speedy cure. This Liniment from its penetrating and strengthening qualities has been found to be a spe ; eitic for Paralysis or Palsy, Whiteswellings and I diseased joints, and in fact all comnlaints invol ving the muscular system. Tt lias cured cases of Rheumatism of twenty to thirty years’ standing, and affections of the Spine wherein the entire spi nal column was so crooked and distorted, that the i patient could not walk or stand without artificial support. Numerous eases of Palsy have been cured when the flesh had withered, leaving nothing but the dried skin and bone, and the limbs totally ; without use or feeling. For Children with Croup ' it is of inestimable value, rubbed and bathed over j the throat and chest. If applied freely on the chest ; it never fails to give relief in the severe Coughs at j tending Consumption. Asthma and Colds. It heals I wounds speedily—will cure Sealdhead, Mange, etc. I Planters and Farmers will find it a most valuable medicine to be applied to Horses and Cattle for : Sprains, Bruises, Lameness, Stiff Joints, Sweeney, Dry Shoulder, Wounds, Burns, Splint, Chafes or (lulls, Hardened Knots on the flesh, etc. Look out for Counterfeit* ! Tli.' public are cautioned against another coun terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called \\ I!. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most datt ! gerous of all the counterfeits, because his having I the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex i ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error j when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil I effects. The genuine article is manufactured only bv B. i G.
