John J. Byrd’s Copying Press.
Col. Htrd exhibited in our office yesterday one
of his copying presses, and the operation of it
gave full satisfaction. He informed us that he
could copy letters with his apparatus even after
the ink has been drv twelve or fifteen hours, and
for experiment we tried a portion of a letter from
our desk, which had been written to us nine days,
before, and had come through the mail, and the
copy wa3 nearly as perfect as the original. We
wish the Colonel success in the sale of his press.

Theatre—Burton Club.
There was a crowded house last evening to
witness the first representation by the Burton Club.
The play was the Lady of Lyons , and the char
acter of Pauline was performed by a young lady
of this city, being her first appearance on the
stage. She played the part sensibly and occa
sionally with much feeling—was quite graceful in
all her movements, and self-possessed in all her
scenes. While she exhibited some few of the de
fects common to every novice, her performance
was not marred by any abortive effort at great
artistic display. Her acting was as natural, pleas
ing and effective, as could have been expected
from the most promising novice of her sex.
Beauseant has seldom been performed better on
our boards, and Glacis was very well done. The
other parfs by the Burtons were creditably acted.
Some few of the scenes of Claude Melnotte, we
thought, were as well played by Mr. Allen, last
night, as we have ever seen them. Kemble, as
Colonel Bamas, of course, done well—it is one of
Kemble’s great parts, which he has played in all j
thepiincipal cities of the Union, with immense
success.
Mrs. Allen was very successful as Widow Md
notte. Miss Lewis, was rather juvenile in appear
ance for the mother of Pauline, and the wife of
the ancient Mans. Beschappells, but it is the weak
ness of her sex to endeavor, under all circumstances,
to look as young as possible. Miss Lewis, how
ever, is a very intelligent, sprightly, and beauti
ful little actress, and very attractive and success- j
fol in parts suited to her age.
We need not say a word about Miss Kemble—
she is a favorite, and is always warmly applauded.
A song by Miss Kemble, and the farce of the
Swiss Cottage closed the entertainment.

Democratic .Meeting in Richmond.
Pursuant to public notice a portion of the
Democratic-party of Richmond county assembled
at the City Hall, in Augusta, to-day, for the pur
pose of appointing delegates th represent the
county of Richmond in the Gubernatorial Conven
tion, to be held in Milledgeville, on the 24th day
of June next.
Ou motion of William H. Pritchard, Esq., Hon.
Ebenezer Starnes was called to the chair, and W.
G. Johnson requested to act as secretary.
On motion of John Phinizy, Jr., Esq., a commit
tee of five was appointed by the chair to report
matter for the action of the meeting.
That committee consisted of the following gen
tlemen, to wit: John Phinizy, Jr., John Davison,
Henry Moore, James M. Smythe, and Julien Cum
ming, Esqs.
The committee then retired,and after an absence
of a few moments returned, and through their
chairman, John Phinizy, Jr., ottered the following
resolutions:
Resolved, That we cordially approve the
inaugural of Mr. Buchanan, the selection of his
Cabinet, and the policy of his administration, as
far as it has been developed, and honestly im
pressed witli the belief, that the existence of the
Union and Southern Equality in it, depend upon
its complete and triumphant success, we deem it
the duty of southern men, irrespective of party,
to give it an earnest support, and believe tliut this
can be done efficiently, only by sustaining the
state organizations of the party,’ by which it was
elevated to power,
Resolved, That we approve the course of onr im
mediate representative, the Hon. Alexander H.
Stephens, in the last Congress, and having no in
formation that he desires to retire from the House
of Representatives, and from public life, we hereby
recommend him to the electors of the Eighth
Congressional District, as a candidate for the
next Congress; trusting that the people of the
District, rising above the influence of party pre
judices and of petty differences, will show their
appreciation of the experience which he has ac
quired, and the ability and devotion to southern
rights which he has exhibited, in his long and
brilliant congressional career, by giving him an
undivided support.
Resolved, That we will be represented in the
approaching Gubernatorial Conveniion of the
Democratic party, to be held in Milledgeville on
the twenty-fourth day of June, and appoint the
following delegates, viz : Hon. E. Starnes, Thos.
Barret, James T. Xisbet, T. J. Jennings, John B.
McKinne, James McXaid, A. C. Walker, B. J.
Winter, J. B. Weems, D. Kirkpatrick, Jr., J. M.
Newby, Turner Clanton, Julien Gumming, Geo.
M. Newton and Henry Moore, to represent us in
that body, and that each delegate be empowered
to fill his vacancy in the event of his inability to
attend.
Resolved, That we appreciate the fitness and the
wurth of all of the many distinguished gentlemen
whose names have been suggested in connection
with the Democratic nomination for Governor ;
that we feel an honest pride in our connection with
a party which can present so many individuals
competent to fill the highest office in its gift; and
that we will cordially sustain the nomination of
either of them for the Executive Chair.
Resolved}. That whilst thus recognising the fit
ness of other gentlemen and expressing our deter
mination cheerfully to abide the decision of the
Convention, we would avail ourselves of this op
portunity to indicate our preference for for a dis
tinguished fellow-citizen, Gardner, Esq., as the
Democratic candidate for Governor, and respect
fully to present hint to the party in convention, as
one, in our opinion, entitled to the nomination for
that office and eminently fitted for ii.
Resolved, That we have no local or sectional in
terests to subserve, in securing the election of a
Chief Magistrate from our own county and sec
tion, no local or sectional claims to urge in favor
of the nomination of the candidate we present,
but that we place him before the party, and urge
his claims distinctly upon the grounds of fitness
and of service—a fitness, equal to that of any other
individual of the party, whose name w ill probably
be before the Convention, and a service quite as
distinguished, useful and arduous, and which, up
to this time, has received no proper recognition
from the party.
On motion of Julien Gumming, Esq., the pro
ceedings of the meeting were ordered to be pub
lished in the Constitutionalist, and other Demo
cratic papers of the State.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.

Memphis Delegates to Charleston.
The Memphis Appeal of Thursday morning
21si inst., says:
“From present indications the delegation from
this city to Charleston will be a large one, num
bering something over three hundred persons. In
these are included the Mayor and City Council,
the military and fire companies, old soldiers, rep
resentatives of the press, and citizens generally.
“Each of the daily papers of this city will be
represented at the Charleston Jubilee: the Appeal
by Col. B. F. Dill and Wm. A. McKewen, Esq.;
the Etgle by J. S. Parham, Esq.; the Bulletin by
A. 11. Avery, Esq., and the News by Win. T. Yan
cey, Esq., and Col. L. J. Dupree, the latler of whom
being also a representative of the City Council.
A portion, if not all, of whom will also attend the
Savannah celebration.
“An extra railroad train will leave Memphis Sat
urday morning, for ladies, Mayor, Council and
Delegates. The train will stop at night at Hunts
ville, and go on Sunday morning through the
mountains by day-light.”
if” The New York Timet, one of the ablest or
gans of the Black Republican, and on that account
and on account of its conservatism and moderation
when compared with the Tribune or Evening Post,
one of the most dangerous, in announcing a change
in its location next Fall, announces a change also
in its political conduct. It says:
“It (the Times) will be hereafter, in its political
conduct, entirely independent of ail political par
ties —judging all events and all men upon their
meriis, and giving praise and censure, support and
opposition, where either may be deserved, by a
strict and impartial regard to the public welfare.
It will not be reckless or independent of principle
in its political discHSsions, but will aim to conduct
them always with dignity, discretion, and a due
sense of responsibility. But it will not receive its
guidance or inspiration from the dictates of any
i political party, nor consult the fortunes of any
political aspirants in preference to the require
ments of the public good.
“It will appeal always to the great bodv of the
people against mere party projects and ’factious
schemes, and will seek constantly to represent and
to advocate the welfare of the masses rather than
promote the designs of those who seek to use them
for their own aggrandizement. While we know
that it is by this course alone that success is to be
deserved, we believe that it is only thus also that
it can be attained.”

.Speaking of the late decision of the Supreme
Court in the Bred Scott case, the Detroit Free Press
remarks:
“It is peculiarly the mission of the Democratic
press to support and defend the Constitution. The
Supreme Court is especially appointed to interpret
thejConstitutron in all cases where the doubt arises
as to its true intent and meaning. It has interpret
ed it in this case. We now know just what the
Constitution means in some respects where there
has heretofore been dispute about it. We are no
longer in the dark. Light has been cast abroad,
and the Democratic press which refuses to reflect
that light is tit to dwell only in the darkness of
black republicanism.”

»What the New York City folks suy of Dr.
M’l.iiuo's Celebrated Vermifuge, manufactured by Fleming
Brothers.
New York, August 25,1852.
This is to certify that I am well acquainted with a man fifty
years of age, for many years a resident of this city, who lias
been at times extremely ill, but could not tell from what cause,
unless it was worms. He told ills attending physician his sus
picions, but the physician at once ridiculed the idea, and re
fused to attend him any longer. His son then mentioned Dr.
M'Lane's Vermifuge, and asked him if he would take it; his
reply was—l must take something to get relief, or die.
They at once procured a bottle of Dr. 3VLane's Celebrated
Vermifuge, and he took one-half at one dose. The result was,
he passed upwards of three quarts of worms, cut up in every
form. He got well immediately, and is now enjoying most ex
cellent health ; and, like the good Samaritan of old, is endeavor
ing to relieve his unfortunate neighbors. He makes it his busi
ness to hunt up arid select all cases similar to his own, that may
be given over by regular physicians, and induce them to try
Dr. M'Lane's Vermifuge. So far he lias induced more than
twenty persons to take the Vermifuge, and in every case with
the most happy results. He is well satisfied that Dr. M’Lane's
Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburgh, is far su
perior to any other known remedy, and that if more generally
known, would not fail to save many valuable lives. For fur
ther particulars inquire of Mrs. Uardie, 124>3 Cannon Street-
New York City.
CW Purchasers will be careful to ask for DK. M'LANE'S
CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manufactured by Fleming
Bros., of Pittsburg, Pa. All other Vermifuges in comparison
are worthless. Dr. M’Lane sgenuine Vermifuge, also his cele
brated Liver Pills, can now be had at all respectable drug
stores. None genuine without the signature of

OBITUARY.
Died, at his residence at Mount Zion, in Hancock county, on
the 16th inst., Thomas Neel, Esq., in the 64th year of his age.
There was no relation of his life which did not illustrate the
highest virtues of a gentleman and a Christian. Os the most
unspotted honor, of the noblest self-denial, of the most enlarged
charity, of the meekest piety, it was an easy and a cheerful
work to him to discharge the duties of life. All men have their
faults ; but it was always to the honor of Mr. Neel, that those
who knew him best were unable to discover his, which, what
ever they might have been, never marred the beauty of his
character, or mixed with evil the good which he did. Good
men delighted, and bad men were ashamed, not to unite witli
them in praising him as one of the best, and gentlest, and kind
est, and most upright of men. Though a man of large proper
ty, the accumulations of the steady labors and honest industry
of years, the hospitality of his house was extended to the
poor and the humble, as freely as to the rich and the great. Who
of us can ever hope to equal that kind cordiality which always
greeted at his threshholu those from every rank who came,
whether to visit him in his prosperity, or to be comforted in
their adversity ? Who of us can ever hope to equal that genu
ine politeness which probably never once in a long life, allowed
him to wound the feelings of a friend or an acquaintance, and
which, in his sickness, ana almost to the very article of loath,
was as considerate of the wishes and the convenience of those
around him, as when in the full enjoyment of health ? It was
meet that such a life should close as his did. Oh it was beauti
ful to see the hones of that good man which, erewhile, had
been always timid and fearful from the very meekness of his
character, rise up in his dying hour, to become a prospect full of
brightness! Light beamed upon the **dark valley of the
shadow," he saiu ; and when he had said thb, he fell asleep.

There can be no doubt that it is one of the greatest discove

ter from F. T. Wallace :
Palmer, July 1, 1851.
Sir: It is to me a source of infinite pleasure to be able to bear
testimony from personal experience to the great value of the
Oryg cn a ted J> ill e rs .
I began to be afflicted in 1844 with Catarrh, and the difficulty
increased rapidly until December, 1850, producing in the course
of that, period Asthma. The accumulation of mucus on the
lungs was such, that I could not breathe when in a horizontal
or reclining posture ; and many nights during the last two years
I enjoyed no sleep, except what I could get walking my room.
My breathing during the day was indescribably distressing.
My attention was brought to the consideration of the Oxy
genated Bitters by the Hon. Myron Lawrence, who at that
time was rejoicing in the emancipation of his own lungs, from
a twenty years bondage, by the use of your medicine. I pur
chased four bottles of your Bitters. I have not yet used the
whole, and I believe I am cured.
I meet persons almost daily, to whom I recommend it, hav
ing faith that they also can be healed.
Very respectfully,

“ Having examined the Truss submitted for inspection by Dr.
S. J. Sherman, we do not hesitate to express the opinion that its
construction is admirably adapted for the treatment of Inguinal
Hernia.
“ The facility with which by a simple contrivance the pad
may be adjusted over the seat of the disease, will obviate much
of the difficulty usually experienced in fitting of a truss accu

Photographs! Photograph*!!— Mr. I. Tucker
would announce to the public that he has again associated him
self in business with Mr. J. W. PERKINS, who has bestowed
his entire attention upon this branch of the art during the three
years of his absence from Augusta. We have every f acllity the
world affords for the production of as good PIIOTOGR A PITS,
either plain or colored, as can be shown in any portion of our
country or Europe. We feel assured that this is a style of pic
ture that stands unrivalled in the world of art, and it is now
taking the place of every other method of portraiture. It has
the durability of the oil painting, the correctness of the daguer
reotype, and the color of life. We are enabled, with our mam
moth camera, to portray the image, either on canvass or paper,
the size of life, and front the smallest daguerreotype of deceased
persons. This style of picture can be taken enlarged to any size
desired. The Canvass Photograph is an entirely new applica
tion of the art, recently iuvented and patented by Mr. Tatum,
of Mississippi. This process we have secured for our own use
in this city.
We have been fortunate in securing the sendees of one of the
best photographic colorists in America, whose productions as
works of art, are unsurpassed in any section of the country
They tfpeak for themselves, and the public are respectfully in

S2T* Inhalation in Consumption.—Bronchitis La-
RYNGITIS, and other Diseases of the Chest and Throat, sue
cessfuliy treated by the inhalation of vapors and Powders, by
absorption and constitutional treatment, as practiced at the
Stuvesant Medical Institute, New York City.
The unprecediuted success which lias attended the method
of treating diseases of the Lungs and Throat, has induced us to
depart from our usual course, and avail ourselves of the columns
of the Press, in order to bring it to the knowledge of such as
may be laboring under, or predisposed to such affections. The
dawn of a brighter day has at length arrived for the consump
tive; the doctrine of the incurability of Consumption having
passed away. We have indubitable proofs in our possession
that consumption in all its stages can be cured ; in the
first, by tubercular absorption ; in the second, by the transfor
mation of the tubercule into chalky and calcareous concretions;
in the third, by cicatrices, or scars. Those wedded to the opin
ions of the past may assert, that even now. Consumption is in
curable, such are behind the age. To all, this great truth must
be apparent, viz: that the medicines inhaled in the form of Va
por or Powder, directly into the Lungs, must be much more
effective than that taken Into the stomach, where the diseases
do not exist. The advantage of inhalation in Consumption and
Throat Diseases is, that medicines in the form of Vapor are ap
plied directly to the Lungs where the diseases exist; the sto
mach is thus left free to aid in restoring health, by administer
ing to it health, life-giving food. There is no case so hopeless
that Inhalation will not reach! The means, too, are brought
within the reach of all; the manner of administering the Va
pors being so simple, that the invalid is never required to leave
home, where the hand of friendship and affection tends so much
to aid the physician’s efforts.
The Inhaling method is soothing , safe and speedy, and con
sists in the administration of medicine in such a manner that
they are conveyed into the Lungs in the form of vapor, and
produce their action at the seat of the disease. Its practical suc
cess is destined to revolutionize the opinions of the medical
world, and establish the entire curability of Consumption.
I earnestly appeal to the common sense of all afflicted with
Lung diseases, to embrace at once the advantages of Inhalation,
and no longer apply medicine to the unoffending stomach. I
claim for Inhalation a place amongst the priceless gifts tiiat
nature and art hath given us, that “our days may be long in
the land,” and as the only ARK OF REFUGE for the Con
sumptive; a method not only rational, but simple and ef
ficacious.
Such of the profession that have adopted Inhalation, have
found it efficacious in the highest degree , arresting the pro
grtss oj the disease , and working wonders in many desper
ate cases; in verity, a signal triumph of our art over this fell
destroyer of our species.

with this practice, are informed, that our time being valuable,
