BIILV CINSTITUTWNALIST HY JAMES GARDNER. W KDN END AY MORNING, MAY 7. Death of William Crosby Dawson. The painful intelligence reached our city yester day of the death of the Hon. \Vv. C. Dawson, and produced a deep and universal feeling of sorrow. It occurred at his residence in Greensboro , about three o’clock yesterday morning. This sad event will cause the most sorrowful emotions, not only in the community in which this distinguished gentleman lived—not only through out the State of Georgia, of which he was a favo rite and much honored son, but in every part of the Union; for he was extensively known and generally beloved. Mr. Dawson filled many posts of responsibility and distinction during his long aud honorable ca reer in the public service of bis State and country. In early life he was a member of the Legislature, nnd for ten years Clerk of the House of Represen tatives. He was, subsequently, under the general ticket system elected, several times, member of Congress, where he served with credit and distinc tion. He also, for a short period, filled the office of Judge of the Superior Court, and was Senator in Congress for six years prior to March, 1855. At Washington City he was a universal favorite. He was much admired for his courtliness of manners and amenity of temper. When about to retire at the close of his Senatorial term, he was presented with a service of plate, as a token of the esteem of his many friends and admirers in the Federal City. Mr. Dawson served the people of Georgia long and faithfully in the public counsels. In matters of private business for his coustituents, requiring vigilant attention and patient labor, he was ever their efficient representative. In matters of high public import, be was ever at his post, ready to give to the subject in hand his best energies and most patriotic efforts, llut it is not as the advo cate or the statesman, the loss of Mr. Dawson will be most deeply felt and mourned by his fellow cit izens. It is as the kind aud amiable gentleman —the warm hearted, hospitable and generous friend—the benevolent and sympathizing man, with a hand “open as the day to melting charity,” that ho will be most feelingly remembered. The death of such a man is a public calamity. There can be no division of sentiment—no distinction of classes or parties—in doing honor to his memory. We compile from the Historical Collections «.) Georgia, the following: The Hon. W. C. Dawson was born in Greene county, Ga., aud his academic course was first taken under the direction of the Rev. Dr. Cum mins, and afterwards at the county academy in Greenesborougli. At an early age he entered Franklin College, and was graduated in 1816. Upon leaving College, he immediately com menced the study of law in the office of the Hon. Thos. W. Cobb, at Lexington ; and at the expira tion of a year he entered the Law School at Litch field, Conn., under the care of Judges Reeve ami Gocld. After taking a full course of lectures, lie returned to Greenesborough, was admitted to the bar, and in a short time ranked very high in his profession. In 1621, lie was elected Clerk of the House of Represeniatives of the Slate Legislature; and it is a proof of his fidelity as au officer, and his amiable character as a man, that through frequent changes of party supremacy, he filled that office for ten or eleven consecutive years. In 1828, he was appoint ed by the Legislature to compile the statutes of Georgia, which duty he performed to the satisfac lion of the General Assembly and the legal pro fession. lu 1845, he was appointed by Governor Crawford to fill a vacancy on the bench of the Oc mulgee Circuit, lu 1334- ’5, he represented Greene county in the State Senate. In 1336, he was elected to Congress, and re-elected in 1338 and 1840. The Creek and Seminole Indians in Florida, and on the line of Georgia, becoming hostile in ls-O, Judge Dawson raised a company of volunteers, to the command of which he was elected, and, under the authority of the State Government, took the field. Gen. Scott, who had at that time taken the couduct of the Florida war, gave him a separate command, aud detailed him upon a special service, which he performed to the satisfaction of tliat gal- Uut soldier. In the winter of 1347, he was elected to the Uni ted States Seuute, and a! the close of his term re tired to private life. Contract Advertisers Must remember that five o’clock, I*.

From the Charleston Mercury. Ualauce of Power. At a recent celebratiou in honor of the memory of Henry Clav, at his birth place, the well known Hanover Slashes, in Virginia, the Honorable Caleb Cushing, Attorney General of the United States, and one of the most confidential advisers of Presi dent Pierce, delivered a speech, in the course of which he is reported as having said : “ I will here hazard the remark that it needs but one great step—the greatest—so great, in fact, that I almost hesitate in view of the rashness of hint ing at that idea. 1 say, I believe it needs but one great step to consolidate this Union beyond all the storms of fate. When 1 sav to consolidate this Union, I mean to give it perpetual strength, for 1 will not believe that any of the transient emotions of the hour ought to shrike it. With the old Greek, I would abjure the names of the dead at Marathon! * Fckroi en Marathonl l might say that bv those who died, but were not conquered, at Bunker Hill or King’s Mountain—by those who conquered at Saratoga or Yorktown -by the sufferings and sac rifices of our forefathers—by the common heritage of the institutions they have transmitted to us this Union cannot cease. But I will declare my conviction that, to render the solidity of the fabric of the Union immovable, it needs only that the balance of power he established between the North and the South to terminate the question ; and it does need that the balance of power he fixed per manently, and by means that 1 cannot now sug gest." This position of Mr. Cushing has been unmerci fully assailed by northern journals; and vet its wisdom and its necessity must address itself to every thinking mind. Either one section must give itself up to be trampled upon by the other at its pleasure, or there must be a dissolution of the Union; or, finally, there must be established a balance of power that will render it impossible for the North or the South to hope for a dominant in fluence, but will secure to each an effective veto. As to the abject submission of the South, we cannot admit it as a possibility. As to the dissolu tion of the Union, it is the niost natural, effectual and perfect way of settling the difficulty, provided only we could agree upon it. But for "the present there seem dithcitlties in the way not easy to sur mount. The third resource is briefly hinted at bv Mr. Cushing, but without specification. It is to give the North and South a veto upon each other in Congress. We cannot only interpret his idea of the balance of power in' this" way. But this bal ance can only be secured by the reciprocal predom inance of the two sections in the Senate and the House, or by the double Executive proposed bv Mr. Calhoun. ""“"Petty politicians, educated in no school but that of the stump, have laughed at this idea of a double Executive ; that is to sav, all such minds run in evitably towards a central, irresponsible power, of which they hope to get, in whole or in part, the enjoyment. But the grandest Government that ever existed —the one which has impressed itseif most upon the legislation, the social ideas and military organ ization of modern Europe—the Roman Republic— had, as one of its most characteristic features, this division of the Executive power between the two Consuls. There is no instance in history— except, perhaps, in the little State of Sparta, where the Executive authority was divided between two kings—of such permanent and peaceful working of a great constitutional law, as this Roman pro vision of two Consuls. So firmly had it fixed it self in the minds .of the people as an indispensa ble part of the Government, that for a long time after the Empire had absorbed all the practical powers of administration, civil and military, the institution of the two Consuls was preserved as an august ceremonial, and the year was marked by their names. It is no new idea, therefore, that the Executive power may be divided, in a Republic, as a means of self-preservation. The first two Consuls of Rome represented, in all probability, two great parties of the people. 1 fit had been the fortune of our ancestors to see what kind of storm threatened to demolish their work, it is probable thnt they also would have de cided on two Consuls. Can posterity repair the defect? Important Discovert in Tanning.— Mr. Jesse' Morgan, for a long period of years a much esteem ed citizen of our town, and who, for the same length of time, has been engaged iu the above bu siness, has succeeded in making successful appli cations of a new process in tanning, which prom ises to he of great value to this important branch of mechanical •industry. The advantages of the discovery consist in a saving of more than one half of the time employed bv the old process, and i also a saving of otie half of the bark and labor, tbe j material being taken in the half-tanned state; and j by the new system the process of tanning is ac- i complished in a few hours. Those who" are nc j quainted with the method by which hides are con- j vet ted into leather, are aware of ihe fact, that after j it has attained what is technically termed the half- ’ tanned state, the process becomes more tedious as 1 it approaches completion. The new method obvi ates this tedious process, and produces a speedy i finish. Mr. Morgan has left specimens of leather pre pared after this new plan, at our oflice. Tliev j nave been subjected to the close scrutiny and ex- i aminatinn of several gentlemen engaged iu the manufacture of shoes, harness Ac., aud have been pronounced as fully equal in quality and complete ness of finish to that tanned after the old process. The importance and value of this improvement is more fully apparent when we consider the scarcity which is now experienced of the tanning substance, bark, and the great length of time fo£ i merlv consumed in preparing leather for use. We i think we may justly claim for it a prominent post- i tmn among the discoveries of the dav, affectiue 1 materially, as it does, one of the leading and most ; important articles both of foreign and domestic use. Mi. Morgan informs vis that for man v years he has experimented with the view to a similar re sult, hut not until the present has he been enabled to consummate his process. He also informs us ! that he has disposed of several pieces of his i leather to different persons in our District, all of j whom, iu addition to those above alluded to agree 1 as to the practicability of his discovery. He de signs applying for a patent as soon as circumstan ces will permit. Success to him. Sum Ur Watchnun.

From the Alabama Journal. Afton Ripples, or Shadows on the Wa ter. THE SUICIDE. Take her up gently from the cold earth, and fold the slight hands upon the bosom whence all pain has fled. Speak no light word of her who rashly thus lias cast away the life God gave her —for to Him alone, who reads all hearts, her great sorrosrs have been known, and ’tis for him alone to pun ish. There rests upon that brow an awful calm— a presence all mysterious ; that tells of the deep agony too great to bear—of the heart-strings fro zen at last, and then broken in the wild, despairing struggle. Oh !it is very sad to look on one whose spaii of life, not sixteen summers yet hath breath ed upon, and feel with mournfulness that for her the past has been one long, deep, painful vigil—an agonizing brooding over some fearful wrong—till the sullen river, rolling onward, closed over the fragile form, and hushed beneath its waves the moaning wail of grief that burst from the throb bing heart. The midnight winds in their jour neyings, perchance, have borne upon their breath ing sigh her last supplication to the great Father of mercies ; and as the slanting sunbeams waver ed through the crystal deep, uhe shall say the darkened spirit bathed not in their senescent light; or that the angels, who tread the bright meridian gave not their intercession for the poor wanderer, whose penance long had broken the ashen crust of bitterness. No signet of decay rests on the pale cheek that thus, in the autumn time, has faded with the dying flowers, but the tender buds of youth’s eternal May for her have been blighted, ere they blossomed. \Ve gaze upon her, and the vanish edyears pass, one by one, before us, till we hear her silvery laugh, as like some sportive sylph she chased the butterfliesjin ehildhoold's thoughtless hours. Thus following her, we start and shudder at the desolating change. The home she once made light by ber dear presence, lies in the dim shadow of a dishonored name. The spring flow ers still bloom along the familiar paths, but the spoiler has borne from the cherishing bossoni the sweetest blossom of them all. The music of stream and bird will come back when the ice king leaves his tottering throne, but there is a voice heard no more in the desolate chambers, and a name banished from the evening prayer. They miss her from the fire-side, and her place is vacant at the board. A stain is flung upon the brightness of her memory, and she is nameless overmore. An out cast —branded with guilt—hunted from place to place —unpitied—with none to speak the word of kindness, that falls like refreshing dew upon the wasting heart—seeking in vain for some reluge where, robed in sorrow, she might in soli tude expatiate the past. But no, nor dream, nor rest, nor shelter. Oppressed and scorned on every side —no hope to lay upon the spirit’s broken shrine, nor shed upon the fainting soul the halo of sweet divinity—distrustful of pardon or of mer cy, she rushes to her fate. On one side lies the path which she perchance has entered, ami feels that to pursue must lead to deeper ruin—where sin and shame, twin sisters, flaunt hand in hand, decked in their robes of splendor, that but the priceless purity of soul may purchase; and, oh I she feels that when the jewel is bartered, squalid poverty walks close behind to tread with her the precincts of perdition. The laving tide close at her feet with its ceaseless nnirmurings, forever of fers a resting place, the cold world denies her here, and sinking 'neath its waves, the overbur ttaened spirit has gone—God pity her— whither t How bravely do we gird ourselves to rebuke an erring sister—all forgetful that though we know ourselves to-day, we are but frail humanity, and an hour may see our pride of virtue trail its glit tering pinions in the dust, even as the sun sets to day in a bright flood of molten gold, may sink to-morrow ’neath a cloud. Thiol: on this und drop the tear of pity while the harsh rebuke lies hushed upon the lip, for every crystal drop lies like a sparkling gem upon the sufferer’s crown of thorns. Close, 'then, those sightless eyes whence the light has tied, nor shrink from that poor unfortunate. No pollution rests upon her now, and though no con secrated dust surround her, the once lowly Naza rite, who sits upon the throne of Heaven, will measure justice equally with her who fills a pau per’s grave and the proud one shrined in some princely mausoleum. Louise Reeder. [ln order that the reader may better understand the subject matter of the “Suicide,” by Miss Reed er, we give the following outlines of the poor tin fortunate unknown who is the subject of the above article: We recollect reading some time since an account of u young girl having been found drowned in the Schuylkill river, aud for a time was laid out in the chan tv hospital in order that she might be recog nized by hei relatives When found, her dress was of the best material, neatly made, and in her pocket was found a note wrapped in oil silk, in or der that the water might not affect it, which note stated that it was an act of her own. This created much interest to discover her parentage ; many visited her remains, and no clue could be had to identity. Just as the director of the hospital was about to place her remains in a common pine cof fin, to consign them to the resting place of the miserable and unfortunate, au old man, accompa nied by a young gentleman entered, and on exam ining her person closely, they seemed to be deject ed. The young man ordered a handsome coffin, one appropriate for her personal attractions, and purchased a burial pluce in the cemetery, and had tier decently interred ; and when asked’if he knew her, answered no. Even to this day rests tho un known in a cemetery near the city of Philadel phia.] The following speech of a member of the House of Commons of England, recently deliver ed in Parliament, is from an English paper: Vaccination. The House having resumed, Mr. Cowper moved the second reading of the Vaccination Bill, ex plaining that its intention was to make the regu lations with regard to the matter more stringent, and to give the boards of guardians power to de fray the expenses of prosecuting those parents who neglected to comply with the law. It was also proposed to provide 'properly skilled opera tors, as he understood that improperly performed vaccination was the cause of much of the preju dice entertained against it. At tiie same time, ho proposed slightly to raise the medical fee for the operation. Mr. Henly approved generally of the principles of the bill] but said there were" several details which he would propose to have altered in committee. Dr. Mitchell, the member from Bodmin, op posed the bill altogether, and, amidst the alter nate laughter and impatience of the House, quoted a large body of statistics, to show that vaccina tion had no influence on small-pox, except to en courage it. He said- - “By the Registrar General’s report it appeared that out of four hundred and thirtv-two deaths from small-pox, one hundred and thirtv-five were cases in which the parties had previously been vac cinated. On board the Constitution frigate there were fifty nine cases <>f small-pox, and out of those fifty-nine no less than fifty-four had been previously vaccinated. According to Dr. Grego ry, there were between 1824 and 1835, three thou sand eight hundred and thirty-nine cases of small-pox at the hospital oyer which lie presided, three thousand and ninety-three of which wen’ after vaccination. He had statistics showing that cases of smull-pox after vaccination had been in creasing all over Europe. His objection to vacci nation, then, was, that in the first place, it gave no sort of protection against small-poxanil in the second place, it induced paralysis, leprosy and other diseases. An hereditary disease might be conveyed by vaccination. There was another reason why lie'was opposed to the system, and j that was that vaccination very often caused death ; I and Parliament had no right to authorize Bill board of health to go into a man’s house and say to him, ‘You shall submit to have a disease con veyed to you which may imperil your life.’ lie believed there was no doubt that the small-pox left the patient more healthy than before, often curing the King’s evil; and’, upon high medical authority, he was justified in saying that vaccina tion was no protection against small-pox, but, on the contrary, frequently entailed the most loath- j some diseases. For himself, he would much j sooner have the disease of small-pox than the din- i ease produced by vaccination.” The bill was read a secend time without a di vision.

C.-*—The subscriber re spectfully informs his friends and the public gen erally, that this approved and agreeable resort will be opened for the season on the Ist of June, 1856, with increased advantages. Grateful for the pa tronage bestowed on the Moultrie House (when aken for the last season at short notice and under some disadvantages,) the subscriber has spared no pains or expense to render the establishment more agreeable to all who seek a pleasant and healthy resort at the sea side. The Moultrie House railroad is in successful | operation, furnished with commodious cars, thus removing the objections and inconveniences which formally discouraged visitors. The House, generally, has been renovated and refitted, and particular attention has been paid to the providing of such amusements and resour ces of recreation as are expected at a first class summer retreat. No finer beach can bo found in the country, for riding, walking, or surf-bathing. Comfortable bathing rooms are furnished for ladies and gentlemen, and every provision will be made for the comfort of those in search of health and pleasure. The Moultrie House will be under the immedi ate supervision of the subscriber, who respectfullv solicits a trial ol its advantages from summer travellers.

SPECIAL NOTICES. |SP Impelled by an honest desire to im part useful information, and actuated with a be- I nevolent wish to benefit tho public health, we would call the attention of our readers to the great j remedy known as “Rhodes'Fever and Ague Cure.” | It is the only remedy now before the world, which i ‘ with active curative properties combines entire ! harmlessness. That this is so, we feel confident, j from the fact that Doct. James R. Chilton, the cel | ebrated chemist of New York, testifies to its per- j ! feet freedom from any injurious ingredients, such as Quinine, Mercury, Arsenic, Ac., which form the active principle of most medicines offered as a { remedy for Fever aud Ague and kindred disorders. ; The article under consideration is based upon the principle that for every disease, nature furnishes the appropriate neutralizing agent. It is well known that miasmatic exhalations cause Fever and Ague, and the medicine before us is calculated ex pressly to counteract those poisonous vapors. Iu short, it is precisely what it claims to be, a natural Antidote to ?>falaria ! my l d*c2w JST - Notice to Owners of Dogs. —Collars can be procured daily at the Citv Hall, until the 7th day of MAY next.

April 2d. ?,m as ,;, DYSPEPSIA—ITS CURE, fBY II ERE is, probably, no disease that afflict* .M. so large a portion of the human family; no disease that stands so prominently among th'e list j of “incurables;” none for which more cure* have i been sought after ; none treated with so little sat isfaction by physicians, and none, probably, that has called forth so much renewed exertion and hard study for the discovery of a cure, as the dis ease. Dyspepsia. Cures have been sought after in j change of physician, change of medicine, change of diet, change of locality and climate, change of j occupation and habits, but all to little or no pur ! pose; the disease continues, and the sufferer after j years of unrequited labor in senreh of relief, 100. | to all hope of recovering, sinks into despondency ; and gloom which no change of scene or circuit!- j stance can relieve. His disease is ever present j before him, and his mind, the theatre of dark and I gloomy thoughts, is continually calling up ghosts i of buried and bygone pleasures, and he looks for ward toa future where dissatisfaction, discontent misery and suffering are most gloomily and otv minently portrayed; irascible, fretful,' distrustful even of his nearest and best friends, lie drags out an existence, not only an incumbrance to hunself, but burdensome to his friends, his acquaintances, and his own family. To all such 1 would recommend attention to the remedy known as “BLISS’S DYSPEPTIC RE MEDY” -a remedy, new, very simple in its com position, but from the manner of its eombinatii possessing curative properties surpassing anv and | every preparation known that has ever yet been | prepared for the cure of Dyspepsia, it G safe I speedy and effectual, and mav he relied upon with’ ! every confidence, for it will not fail even under the j most discouraging circumstances, or with the most ’ stubborn case, no matter of how f .ng standing I providing the patient is willing no: only to folic'.' directions as regards taking the medicine, but oti: 1 er directions accompanying. The proprietor is well aware that the same pre j mises have been and are being made through ai- I: most every print in the country, as regards other preparations of like character, and tha” bv adver using and heralding its virtues to the public, he is only following in the beaten track of those vb have gone before him, and who have promised and assured the same perfect and speedy cures; \et as it. seems the only course left to be pursued, he im:> i adopt it —and in doing so, he is fuliv conscious that I whatever he may sav of its virtues.'it will, h ma ; ny, be regarded as the “old story” manufactured for the purpose of extracting money from the pockets of victims of disease, who would, in the hope of finding relief, part with their last dim*, lie would, however, ask for a suspension of opi ion until a single package has been tried by them selves or their friend, and then if he has field nut inducements for its purchase, or made premise, i regards its curative properties that are not mace good by the preparation, he then is willing that it j should be condemned. ; The remedy is no new preparation with the pro prietor—but a well tried prescription that he has tißed in his private practice for ten years, and a!- | "'ays with the happiest results. In the using of it, a cure may not only bo expected, but an immediate abatement of symptoms mav be looked for with a day or two. To all suffering from Dyspepsia, one trial i* re commended, ana if that trial is made in good faith, in accordance with directions, the invalid may have every hope . f recovery.
