Lewis*. The Professor exhibited to us testimonials from highly responsible and in telligent gentlemen of Virginia and other States, approbatory of the success of his practice and the | principles upon which he operates; and sceptical as we are, in all such matters, we are compelled to j admit that he “is properly vouched for.’’ Visitor* and Strangers. Among the many objects which will attract the j attention of our visiting friends, we solicit their j very especial attention to OUR ADVERTISING COLUMN'S. Railroad Convention. Quite a large number of the stockholders of the Georgia railroad reached the city yesterday by the special, as well as regular trains on the railroad. They were accompanied, in many cases, with their families. The annual meeting of the stockholders will be held this day. Current News of the Day. The news by the Atlantic was telegraphed to this city yesterday about noon. Under the telegraph lmad, such intelligence as we received will he found. The slight decline in cotton, brought bv this steamer, was a necessary consequence, from the dullness which prevailed in the Atlantic mar kets, as well as the large increase of receipts of cotton, about the 15th and 1 Gtli April, when the Asia left for Liverpool. It is not unreasonable to look for a similar depression in prices for some time to come. It is presumed, in the large con suming and manufacturing markets of Europe, that there must be a legitimate cause for a decline in the prices of cotton on this side of the water, growing out of an abundant production, or other substantial cause, and a quiet market and decline in prices there follow. In this country we look to Europe, with confi dence, and presume they are aware of their wants of trade. But, sometimes, we “get ahead of the music,” as we did some month or two ago, and although European accounts have been corning forward very favorable, we have not been prepared to properly appreciate them. The dullness in the markets in this country, during the past month, will be reflected back to us from Liverpool, in a short time, and then speculators will enter the market, and reap their rich harvests. The political news by the Atlautic is very spar ingly communicated. We learn, however,that the Peace treaty concluded at Paris, has been pub lished entire, and'an analysis of its thirty-four points will be found in another portion of our pa per to-day. The political news from Europe by the America, i* measurably interesting, so far at least as it concerns this country, although the main points were generally known before. It has been dis tinctly announced that England will render full satisfaction to our Government for the violation of our neutrality laws, in the enlistment of men for the Crimean war, but it is also distinctly understood that Mr. Crampton is not to be recalled. It is somewhat diflicult to appreciate a satisfaction which is embarrassed with the continued presence of a high public functionary of that country, who acted an important part in the outrageous insult and violation of our laws. The position of England, in regard to Central Ahi rican affairs, as foreshadowed by the late foreign accounts, will not be favorably regarded here. Parliament will not sustain the American con struction of the Claytox-Bulwer treaty—that point we have frequently been apprised of—bn! when England attempts to enforce her construction of the treaty, she will find that the Mosquito pro tectorate is a more important affair than she lias been accustomed to regard it. The policy adopted by the French Emperor to effect a peace is hinted at in the foreign corres pondence brought by the America. After negoti ating for :he intervention of Austria, Louis X\- poi.ko.v proposed to England to co-operate for a peace, or to vigorously prosecute the war. In the Lit ter event, the scene of hostilities would have to be changed to Central Europe, and France would as sume the Rhine as her northern boundary. This aspect of affairs did not suit England, and she much preferred a peace, inglorious though ii might be, to any such extension of the bounda ries of the French empire. F. L. Claiborne, in a letter to the New Orleans Pi i,y/;,••#, 4th May, states that he knows twelve plantations that should make three thousand font hundred hogsheads of sugar, that will not be able to make plant eane and two hundred hogsheads ot sugar. The evidence at the preliminary examination of the Hon. I\ T. Herbert, in Washington City, for the killing of Thom as Keating, was of a contra dictory character, as to the origin of the affray, but the witnesses generally testified as to the number and severity of tlie assailants of Mr. Herbert, and some that be shot Keating only when be was nearly overpowered by the three who were beat ing him. The North Carolina Stan Jard learns that Rawly Galloway, Esq., a distinguished Whig of Rock ingham county, in that State, anil an elector for Tatlor and Fillmore in 1 849, lias taken position with the Democratic party, and will support Bragg for Governor, and the Democratic candidates for President and Vice President. While we arc •leased with this announcement, it isjustsueh as v.e hear of every day. and have been hearing for a year past, and which the results from the ballot box arc proclaiming in tones of thunder throughout the Union. 1 here are now in Florida ten companies of regu lars, artillery whose aggregate strength is about eight hundred men, and five companies ot mount ed volunteers, numbering four hundred men, and all engaged in suppressing the warlike and refrac tory Indian tribes remaining in that State. It is now confidently believed that our Mexican Minister has negotiated with Mexico for another large portion of territory. From the best evidence we have been able to obtain, it appears that the Black Republicans united with the Know Nothings, and the straight Whigs united with the Democrats, at the recent charter election in Philadelphia. Fair in Charleston. \V e learn that the ladies of Charleston, of the Methodist Protestant Church,contemplate holding a lair, for the benefit of their Church, commencing on the U'th or 2 uh of this month. They have adopted pleasaut and worthy means to promote their object, and we wish them the most abundant success; and trust that Augusta will contribute something to the undertaking The following gentlemen were elected, on Friday last.

Lamar was elected President and John C. Ferrill, Gtshiei-. Tiie article signed "A Subscriber,” lias been received, and we will give it a full investiga tion. ■■Ml Nicaragua and Her Cause Its Claims' , upon our Sympathies. The present position of Gen. Walker in Nica ragua is not that of a fillibuster. lie is at the bead of the army of a regularly constituted Re publican government, with Rivas for its Presi dent. The Republic of Nicaragua is au independ cut government, and has long since been recog nised as such by our government. The present dominant party is the Je facto government of that country, and we see no valid ground on which the United States can consistently, with its precedents and settled policy, refuse to recognise it. It is the government of the people of Nicara gua fairly and legitimately declared. The party that triumphed in the selection of Rivas for the Presidency, is the partv which should command the sympathy and good will of the people of the United States. It is the Demo ; cratic party, or party of popular rights and civil j equality, in opposition to the factious remnants of ; the old Chamorro or despotic party. Since the defeat and subsequent death of Chamorro, the Democratic party, under the lead of President Rivas and Gen. Walker, have had undisputed sway in Nicaragua. No opposing organization has claimed to exercise governmental functions in that i Republic. The only obstacles to a full recognition of the de facU’ Government of Rivas by foreign j Governments, are— : Ist. The doubt of its stability, and j 2nd. The enmity it encounters from the neigh | boring Kepnblics of Costa Rica and Honduras. Its stability ought to be sufficiently demonstrated i by the treaty of peace between the two opposing par ties of the country, and its subsequent continuance in power without any formal or organized opposition. ; The enmity of neighboring Republics should have | small weight in the United States on the question, when it is borne in mind that that enmity arises I from jealousy and hatred of Americans. The fact that Walker is an American, and that lie and his i fifty-six followers from California materially aided j in’placing the Democratic party in power, embitters ; the Spanish races in Central America against the j new government. This feeling was barbarously illustrated at Panama in the recent massacre. It I should and must go far to conciliate public senti ment in this country in favor of the recognition of 1 the Rivas government. Our Minister, Col. Wheeler, properly represent ed American sentiment in recognizing the new government. Ii is unfortunate that Nicaragua sent so exceptionable a minister to this country as Parker 11. French. The personal objections to him had probably more to do with the refusal to 1 receive him than objections to the government he | represented. No such difficulty exists with refer j cnee to the new Envoy, Padre Vigil. We, there | fore, confidently look for iiis early recognition by ; our government. VV<' present below, from the Mobile Register, a | clear statement of the position of Gen. Walker, j and of the circumstances by which lie lias been | brought into his present distinguished and respon [ sible position. Gen. \\ illimn Walker. This “daring fillibuster,” us Blackwood's iltija zine calls him, is playing a leading role in a draina of the utmost consequence to the people of the United States and Central America; while the eyes of statesmen and sagacious men in Europe are fixed upon him with intense interest. We have regarded Walker from the first as entitled to a consideration far above what is due to a common tillilmster, and have been able to realize none of that horror at his dashing career, which has been excited in the class of tight-laced old fogies in our country. It is not necessary to dive into the depths of Walker’s bosom, for his personal mo tives, to decide that be is an instrument in the hands of Fate, or of Providence, to work out great political changes and social reforms in the drama of the “ manifest destiny'’ of the North American continent. It is a fixed idea in the American mind, that sooner or later, our institu tions and laws are to spread over and govern the whole North American continent and the island of Cuba —perhaps the whole groupe of the Antilles. It is not surprising that this strong thought ami steady belief should manifest itself in the form of actual and adventurous effort among the restless and active spirits of our people, and that the peo ple of the United States, with rare exceptions, should follow the adventurers with secret or open satisfaction, and with their best wishes for their success. It is a mistake to imagine that fillibusterism is an American peculiarity. It is common to all powerful people and nations, and lias been prac tised from the days of Alexander and Cvrus, of Rome, and Carthage, of Julius Catsar and William the Conqueror, down to William Walker of the present time. In the United States it only takes a different form. With us, it is the veopU who are the fillibusters. In Europe now, and in all past times, n is the Gm'ennto nU that are the filli busters. France fillibusters’in Africa Great Bri tain on a huge scale in India, and in every other part of the globe, where a ship will float or a for tress may be erected to extend her commercial dominion; and Russia fillibusters -or tries to in the Dannhian Provinces, in Circassia, and as far into Asia as her sceptre can reach. England, France and Russia do not send their people as emi grants, or colonists, on these expeditions, hut their fleets and armies. It is the spirit of fillibusterism in the Governments, and not the restless spirit of the people that prompts, leads and executes in their forays. No civilized power in the world, then, has a right to cast the first stone of reproach against the manifestation of a propensity m this country, which seems to have been, in all time, an inseparable element in the characteristics of men and nations. Gon. Wm. Walker is the ablest, the most daring, and, so far, the most successful of all the Ameri can fillibusters. lie did not carry violence and bloodshed into Nicaragua—he found it there, lie found a civil war raging between the Grenada and Leon parties. The former was headed by Don Fruto Chamorro, the President of flic Govern ment, which was at the time in his hands. He was a man of great energy and courage, but as stub horn as a mule. Grenada, a city of about fifteen thousand inhabitants, was the capital and head quarters of the Chamorro party. The Leon party, the result of a revolutionary movement against Chamorro’s despotic Govern ment. had iis headquarters at the city of Leon. Francisco Castillon, a man of education and en lightenment, headed this party, and they called themselves Democrats. The war commenced at Itealejo, a small town on the Pacific, which the Democrats took, and proceeded to Leon, where Chamorro|was defeated and retired to Grenada, leaving the former city in the possession of the Democratic army. After spending some time in recruiting and preparing for a serious attack upon Grenada, the enemy’s stronghold, the latter place was invested. Chamorro was readv for them, and had fortified the Plaza with double and triple barricades, and such artillery as he could command—only some three or four guns! Tht- Democrats took possession of all the sur rounding country and all of the city, too, except the Plaza, which had been converted into a Citadel. After ten months of trial, the siege was raised, the assailants giving up the hope ot killing or starv ing out the Legitimists. On retiring, Chamorro pursued and overtook them at Masaya, where a bloody fight ensued, and some three hundred men were killed. The Granada party now regained possession of the southern part of the State, while the Leomtes held the North. Meantime the Democratic party had been partic ularly solicitous to conciliate the Americans and American interests in the State. Being in posses sion of the Transit they succeeded in enlist ing a few American rifles in their cause. While the revolution was at its height and the State was divided into two armies, Walker appeared on the scene at the request of the Leon party. He land ed with less than sixty men. His course and suc cesses are familiar to the public. The result was the defeat of the Chamorro party. Chamorro him self, in the meantime, had died of a disease under which he had been long suffering. A peace was made between the parties—together they formed a new government—offering to Walker the Presi dency, which he declined, contenting himself with the command of the army. The new govern ment was composed of men of both parties. Such is the history of \\ alkcr’s fillibustenng in Nicara gua. His rule is as legitimate as any that has ever been established in the State, and certainly more wise, firm and just. The Recent Storms in Mississippi. —We have been favored, says the New Orleans Picayune, of May Mb, with the following extract from a letter dated Natliez, May sth, to a commercial house in this city : “ The storms of last week washed out our valiev crops, and did much damage. Hail stones, of seven and nine inches, were measured all around us, on ‘the ridge,’ and in our place. At Capt. Hunt’s, and Mr. Grafton’s, they went through the roofs of buildings. In Jefferson, three miles above us, several plantations were greatly injured by the wind. Houses, gins, Ac., all carried away.” Philadelphia, May y.—The Hon. James Bu chanan was notified,of his|uomination bv the Penn- Kama Democratic State Convention, vesterdav, at Lancaster. He accepted the nomination, atid endorsed the resolutions adopted bv the Demo cratic State Convention. lIY TELEGRAPH. Four Days Later from Europe. ARRIVAL 0F THE STEAMSHIP ATLANTIC.

Brown & Shiplet’s Circular quotes a decline in the Cotton market of jVd., and that the decline is confined principally to the lower grades. Consols quiet, in consequence of the new loan of £20,000,000. There was some fluctuation, and prices declined to 91} 4, but subsequently re covered and closed at 92}^. Money Market. Money easy at previous rates. Consols had de clined Paris Treaty of Peace. The treaty of Peace at Paris has been officially published. As will be seen in the epitome of the articles, brought by the America, the sth, 6th, 7th and Bth are omitted. The sth and 6th articles provides for a general amnesty and exchange of | prisoners. The 7th and sth admits for Turkey her present political relations to the laws and : public system of Europe, and secures to her the independence and integrity of her territories. The political news is not very interesting. Chinese News. Bv recent arrivals at Liverpool from Hong Kong, of the British possessions in China, and from Prome, in Burundi, nows of great fires in those places have been communicated. At Hong Kong eighty houses were destroyed by tire, and Nick Brotiii;i;s, an American house, had failed, and tlieir liabilities reached a million and a half, but whether pounds sterling or dollars, the present ac counts do not state.

That this is so, we feel confident, from the fact that Doct. James K. Chilton, the cel ebrated chemist of New York, testifies to its per fect freedom from any injurious ingredients, such as Quinine, Mercury, Arsenic, Ac., which form the active principle of most medicines offered as a j remedy for Fever and Ague and kindred disorders. The article under consideration is based upon the j principle that for every disease, nature furnishes j the appropriate neutralizing agent. It is well j known that miasmatic exhalations cause Fever and j Ague, and the medicine before us is calculated ex pressly to counteract those poisonous vapors.

I-Y" W’e cannot refrain from calling the attention of our readers to an advertisement in this day’s paper, of the “ HAIR RESTORATIVE ” of Prof. O. J. Wood A Co., of St. Louis. It will he seen that he lias numerous certificates from per sons of the highest character, to the merits of his Restorative. From positive knowledge, we are also enabled to say that it is in every sense what it pro fesses to he, and we do not hesitate to pronounce it the finest preparation for the head and hair which has so far been devised by human ingenuity. We have seen it arrest threatened baldness, and restore . to the head its original profusion of natural and glossy- hair, and when the latter has been prema turely tinged with gray, we have seen it, like ma gic, restore the colors of youth and health. The distinguishing property of this, we might truly sav, miraculous ” Restorative,” is that it gi\*es to the person who uses it, the same head of hair that they wore in youth, thus acting in strict compli ance with the rules of the first and greatest of all toilet makers—Nature. No one who has used it 1 will hesitate to unite with ns in this testimony- to its peculiar merit.— Covington, Ind. People's Friend. For sale, yvholesale and retail, by- W M.

TIO DYSPEPTICS—Says the Spirit -f the Aye lt is not an insignificant fact— • rather an important one—and indicative of the long promised “good time coming,” that we have, i with increasing frequency, additions from the ranks | of regularly educated physicians to the number of those who have humanly come forward and inter posed between the Patent Medicine Quacks and j their innumerable dupes throughout the country. The evils which have resulted from the success of a few persons in this line, is, we believe, inealcula i ble. Hosts of venal imitators -groveling pandcr ers to their own base passions, avarice, and a pru ; rient ambition, have sprung up on every side and I flooded the country with foul decoctions, disguised i by their inodoroitsuess and bad taste, proclaiming them universal Panaceas for all diseases. This subject has not hitherto failed to attract the attention of philanthropists, and if it did not re ceive that attention which it so evidently demand ed, it was because no available means for its sun j pression presented themselves. A remedy is, how ever, now being applied to the evil, which will not ; only abate it, but, finally, and we hope, ere long, i I exterminate it. Regular medical practitioners are now placing ; their host prescriptions m a popular form before j the public- -thus affording the advantages of their : ! skill and science without the usual consulting f,.,. j I in those disorders of ascertained characters” and i which may be treated on known principles.’ We ' hope that accessions to the number of those phvsi- I cians who prefer to seek the sick and heal tliein ; rather than repose m dignified retirement of the profession, waiting “a call,” will increase until the ! whole race ot humbugs are extant, and people be j assured that a popular medicine is really worth the ' wrapper that envelopes it—a rather uncertain mat- I ler with some of the nostrums that are now afloat. \\ e were led into these remarks by a conversi , turn which we just have had with a gentleman ' \ I v; lend - '}•''» <*’ r , vears Had been a sufferer ft on, !

THE MOST USEFUL Family Medicine that has ever been offered to the jiitblie. The following recommendation, from a Physician in Carroll county, Gn., proves its value : Carroll Coi xtv, Ga., April, 1 Dr. Dexms.—Dear Sir : The Anti-Spasmodic Tincture proves to be a valuable remedy in all cases for which von have recommended it. lam convinced that it would be the most popular reme dy extant, could it be brought before the public: and all you need do is to advertise extensively. Yours, respectfully, J. w. If. In offering medicine to the public, the proprietor must have an eve to his own interest. If the pub lic should make a general use of this remedy, it would be a great saving of expense to them’ in medicine and medical fees. As the GEORGIA SARSAPARILLA is the best paying medicine, it will receive his principal attention. The Sarsapa rilla is prepared in a vicinity in which Sarsaparilla grows abundantly, and (lie preparation ran be made pure. Spurious articles of the kind, no bet ter than so much sweetened water, have been ex tensively advertised to cure al! diseases, but have failed to benefit. The GEORGIA SARS A PAKU LA being pure, the proprietor receives the bem-tit of other Sarsaparilla advertisements. At the North, where the Sarsaparilla cannot be obtained without more expense than profit, there is no competition in pure Sarsaparilla. In those densely populated cities and towns, a pure article has only once to be made known to be readily soldfor this reason, it is for the interest of the proprietor to give his main attention to the Sarsa parilla, and avoid expense in introducing the atiti- Spasmodic Tincture. dlael mvl ’ STANDING COMMITTEES OF THE CITY COUNCIL FOR is.y 6: At CO l NTS—Conlev, Chairman; Stark, fc*nead, Tutt. | Streets and Drains—Dye, Chairman ; Hall Mav, | Blodget.
