AUGUSTA, G-A.
SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 30, 1857
Hon. A. IF. Stephens.
The Columbus Tmttand Sentinel of yesterday
morning, says : “ This gentleman is spending a
few days in Columbus, as the guest of Hon. Martin
J. CEAwroKD. We are pleased to find him in the
enjoyment of excellent health.”
Augusta Orphan Asylum.
The children of this institution will form a pro
cet=ion this afternoon at four o’clock, at the Asy
lum, and proceed to the Cemetery, to pay their an
nual visit to the tomb of their lameuted benefac
tor, Mr I. S. Tuttle, and arrange the blooming
flowers of the season upon his grave.
It will be an interesting and touching ceremc
jjv, and those of our citizens who can convenient
ly attend, will doubtless be gratified in witnessing
this beautiful tribute to the memory of one
whoae munificence has so largely endowed the
Orphan Asylum m this city.
Hon. A. H. Stephens.
The Ttm.ptro.nc« Crusader, published at Penfield
in its issue of 2Sth May says: “If there be a report
that Mr. Stephens designs retiring from public :
life, we hope it is untrue; for we should regret
seeing him retire from the position which he has
so long filled with honor and usefulness to the
country. All parties and classes unite in accord- i
•ng to him great ability and influence in the Na
tional Councils, and not only Democrats, but Know
Nothings, Whigs and Americans all, would regret
to see his post vacant in the House of Congress.
He is a favorite son of Georgia, has been of great
service to the State, and politics laid aside, the
whole State would object to seeing him fail to re
turn at the next session.”

The Missouri Dtmocrat mentions, as a fact not

No Starvation in Tennessee.—Buownlow ofthe
Knoxville Whig, of the 25th lust., says that the
tales of want and starvation in Tennessee, so exten
sively circulated abroad, are greatly exaggerated.
There is a general scarcity of grain, especially in
five or six of the upper counties, owing to the fail
ure of the crops the last season, and the temptation
of exorbitant prices that induced farmers to sell
out Ijj cl.it. These with the early winter and late
spring, were enough to produce scarcity, but no
one has yet perished, and the false alarm of “ star'
vation” is a vile calumny and slander on East Ten.
nessee. We are glad to hear this, and only wish
the same contradictory statement might prove true
m everv other part of the country.
Extract from a business letter received at
this office from a friend at Broad Tree P. o.,in
Cherokee County in this State :
Cherokee County, Mav 26,1857.
“On Monday, the 19th inst., we had heavy rains
with wind from the North-west. At night, the
wind trom the North was high and bleak, and fears
were entertained that the severe weather would
seriously injure the growing small grain crops.
The fears of the farmers have partially subsided,
although the weather indicates a blast or rust in
the wheat.
‘‘Corn is very scarce, and selling from $1 to
$7 25 ; bacon 15 to 20 cents, and very little to be
obtained ; provender having all been fed away to
our cattle, the stock is now suffering ( and dy
ing, and I might say by hundreds. It is Dot alone
from want ot feed, for there is evidentlv a stock

“Peaches have all been killed bv the frost, and
the crop of apples will be very short.”
Another Fire in Decatur.—The saw and grist
mills, adjacent building, and a large quantitv of
lumber, tbe property of Ira Sanborn, Esq., were
destroyed by tire on Sunday, the loth inst.
The loss is estimated at about $3,000, which, in
connection with the additional loss he sustained a
few weeks ago by t.e burning of his dwelling
and out barns near Attapulgus, mils heavily upon
him. —Bainbrulge Argus, May 27.

The Dallas-Clarendon Treaty.
The Anglo Saxon, of Boston, a paper in the in
terest of Great Britain, and supposed to be well
informed in reference to the policy of that Govern
ment, in American affairs, published recently a
statement of the cause which induced the British
Government to reject the Dallas-Clap.endon Trea
ty, in order to correct misapprehensions upon the
subject, existing in the United States. According
to this statement the treaty was not rejected be
cause of the amendments to it, which were made
by the Senate of the United States. These amend
ments were, all of them, reluctantly accepted by
England, her majesty’s Ministers, according to the
Anglo Saxon, “waiving all minor considerations
for the sajie of securing the great leading measure
itself,” and the treaty was not ratified simply be.
cause tbe treaty between Honduras and England
for the cession of the Bay Islands to the former,
had not been ratified by that power. This conven
tion with Honduras, in the negotiation of the
Dallas-Clarendon treaty, was not only assumed
to be ratified and complete, but wa| made a part
of that treaty, and its failure involved the failure
of the treaty with this country. This is the ex
planation of the Anglo Saxon, which, in the
absence of more authentic information upon
the subject, is generally received as correct. It
was further accompanied with the declaration
that “should the ratification of the Honduras treaty
come in note, Lord Napier would not hesitate one
moment in proposing the Dallas Clarendon treaty
over again, to the America!; Government,” If
this contingency had happened, if Honduras had
ratified the treaty with England relative to the
Bay Islands, and Lord Napier had proposed the
Dallas-Clarendon treaty anew, the Administra
tion doubtless would have rejected it promptly.
Fortunatelv, however, Honduras has rejected the
Convention in relation to the Bay Islands—her
ratification of that treaty never will “come in”
and Lord Napier will not propose the Dallas-
Clarendon treaty to this Government anew. That
project may be considered as defunct. That point
being settled the governments of England and
the United States are remitted back to their po
sitions under the Clattox-Bulwer Convention,
and the question now is whether the United
States shall insist upon its interpretation of that
instrument or formally declare its abrogation.
It is wrong In principle and a nullity in fact—
the parties to it never have agreed either upon
its design or its application, and from their irre
concilable differences upon its proper interpretation
all the questions at issue between this country and
Great Britain in reference to Central America have
arisen. The people of this country and the Gov
ernment of England never can unite upon a con
struction of the Clattox-Bulwer Treaty, nor is it,
in fact, capable of a construction which, if adopt
ed, and carried out, would prevent a conflict of
views and interests in Cen'ral America between
England and tbe United States. It ought to be can
celed. England then will be confined (or should
be.) to the enjoyment of the limited rights in Cen
tral America, which she has derived from grants by
Spain, and cannot sustain her pretensions and her
aggressions in that region, by her construction ol
our blundering treaty committals, Relieved of
tbe Clattox-Bulwer Treaty, our Government may
take a new departure in its policy in reference to
Central America.
New England Aid Societies.
The annual meeting of this Society was held in
Boston on the 26th inst. The telegraph report of
the proceedings, in the New York Journal of Com
merce, is as follows :
The report of the Directors exhibits favorable
results in consequence of the great rise of land iu
Kansas. Notwithstanding the losses of last year
by the destruction of the Free State Hotel iu Law
rence, the investment will probably be returned to
the stockholders with perhaps a considerable ad
vance. The prospects of the triumph of free State
principles in Kansas are considered flattering. The
payment of damages for the destruction of the
Free State Hotel is to be pressed on Congress, and
ultimate success is considered certain.
General Pomeroy delivered an address, giving
his experience in Kansas, with the particulars of
the purchase of Atchison by the free State men;
Amos A. Lawrence, Esq., resigned the office of
Treasurer. The old Board of officers were gener
ally re-elected.
The receipts of the Society last year were $42,-
000, of which $37,000 was by subscription ana
$5,000 by donation.
The Evening Post refers sueeriugly to the
rejoicings at the South, over the completion of the
Memphis and Charleston railroad, which, it states,is
the first and only road of any length built by south
ern enterprise and capital. It farther says:
“ But there are other roads less exclusively sec
tional, which seem also to be welcomed by the
South, in spite ot the incendiary character of their
leading directors and stockholders. Missouri has
twelve or fifteen hundred miles under contract,
which will soon be increased to more than two
thousand. Not less than five railroads are now
building which will centre at Memphis, and the
whole States ot Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana,
Georgia and Arkansas, are mapped over with lines
of prospective railways which have been started
by the iibera! land grants of the last Congress.”
It is something new to us that the system of
railroads at the South has been projected under the
stimulus of Congressional land grants, and we have
yet to learn that in building her thousand miles of
railway, Georgia has received one dollar from the
General Government, in any shape or form. The
Evening Post is more given to deliberate, dogmat"
ic lying about tbe South and everything connected
with it, than any influential paper published in
the United States.
’NST’ Mr. John S. Fletcher, proprietor of tbe
Daily Sun, in Philadelphia, has recently been ar
rested on the complaint of John P. Sanderson and
Joseph R. Flanigan, publishers of the Philadel
phia Daily Sews, charging Fletcher with having
published a libellous article against them, in which
it was stated that Sanderson and Flanigan re
ceived money from certain members of the Demo
cratic party of Pennsylvania, at the elections in
that State last year, iu order to keep the Fillmore
ticket tn the field. The result of the trial will put
to rest the slanders of the Black Republicans
against Col. John W. Forney and Messrs. Sander
son and Flanigan.
The Richmond South does not think there
will be a contest in Virginia between Wise and
Hunter for the Senate. In its issue of the 27th
inst., we notice the following paragraph :
lu the discusion at the African Church, Mon
day night, Mr. Robinson gravely propounded the
following interrogatory to Col. August —“ Will
vott, if elected to the Legislature, vote for the re
election of R. M. T. Hunter to the United States
Sen .te?” To which the Colonel unhesitatingly
responded that he knew of no contingency, which
would prevent his voting for Mr. Hunter. Where
did the opposition get the absurd idea that any
Democrat in Virginia dreams of dispensing with
the services of Mr. Hunter, as long as he desires
to hold his present position?
The New York Herald gives the following re
freshing sketch of Black Republicanism, as known
and practised in the Empire State:
“ One praise is certainly due to the Republican*
of the State. They are,' without question, the
most corrupt set of politicians we ever had. We
have had a good many corrupt parties and party
leaders in this State ; but a party so ready to sac
rifice every consideration of public welfare and
abstract justice to private gain as these Republi
cans we never had before, and we do most earnest
ly hope we shall never have again."
An Important Decision.—The decision made
yesterday by the Circuit Court for this District, in
the case of Combs vs. Hodge, embraces the settle
ment of a point of law of general interest and im
portance evervwhere, viz. That certificates of
the debt of Texas, endorsed by the parties to whom
issued, and placed by them in the hands of an
agent to be transferred on the books of Texas,
could be by that agent sold to a bona fide purchaser
without notice, so as to vest in him the absolute ti
tle to them. Its importance arises from its appli
cability to transactions in stocks, generally.
Washington Star, May 27.
The Pexnstlyaxian.—We bear that leading
Democrats of Pennsylvania are now engaged in se
curing a subscription to be used to secure the ser

men said to have the business in hand are such
as will probably bring it to a successful conclu
sion, we apprehend.— Washington Star.
St. Louis, May 27.—Dred Scott's wife and two

Would lie a Moonbeam.
A maiden In the moonlight
Was sitting all alone ;
The shadow of the rose trees
Across the green bank thrown ;
And graceful as a lover.
The quiet moon had placed
A beam, just like a fond arm,
Around her beauteous waist.
Sometimes with silver fingers
It touched her raven hair ;
Sometimes it touched her bosom
As if its heaven were there;
Or glanced from cheek to forehead.
Or mouth and chin caressed;
Or silent sank beside her
And kissed the ground she pressed.
Some wish they were a fairv.
But no such wish have I;
I’d rather he the moonbeam.
My heart's beloved one nigh!
To chase away the darkness,
To dwell within her sight.
And, whilst I lived, to make the world
To her a world of light.

New Vork, May 26. —Last evening Mavor Wood
sent an important message to the Board” of Coun
cilmen in relation to the pending police difficul
ties. His honor starts with the proposition that
“every political community should have certain
inherent rights of domestic police, independent of
any authority whatever; ” and proceeds to argue,
while counties may delegate certain powers to
States, and States to the general government for
federal purposes, the original chartered privileges
of cities remain intact. The mayor proceeds with
an argument to show that the original charter of
the city of New Vork gave to the municipality
sole and undivided control over its police system ;
that this power has never been alienated ; aiid that,
therefore, the metropolitan police act, passed by
the Republican legislature of this State at its late
session, is unconstitutional and void. The police
power is possessed by the city, he maintains, not
by the authority of the State legislation, but inde
pendent, or even in defiance of it. He further ar
gues that the new acts creating the metropolitan
police, and amending the city charter, do not re
peal the ordinance ot the common council of this
city, passed in 1849, establishing the present police
system; and he therefore maintains that the old
police exists as a municipal institution, even
though the old may have vitality also. As analo
gous to the case thus presented, he cites that of
the city of London, in which, by act of Parliament,
they have a metropolitan police, conducted and
superintended by officers appointed by the Clown,
and who act entirely independently of the munici
pal police. The two systems do not clash, but
work harmoniously together. In conclusion, the
mayor recommentfs the immediate passage of an
ordinance for the creation of a day and night
watch police establishment, in order to render
clear and unequivocal the assertion by the city of
its independent right to control and pay its own
police.
This is a very bold and important move. As
you are already advised, our police system is in a
state of confusion and disorganization. Whether
thejnayor’s policy of acquiescence in the new po
lice law, and simultaneous creation of a new and
independent police for the city, will relieve the dif
ficulty, remains to be proved. Certainly the double
system will not be popular with the tax-payers, for
the simple reason that it will be needlessly expen
sive.

ISfWhat the New York City folks say of Or.
M'Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge, manufactured by Fleming
Brothers.
New Y'okk, 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 has
been at times extremely 111, but could not tell from what cause,
unless it was worms. He told his attending physician his sus.
picions, hut 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. M'Lane'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 and 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. Bo far lie lias induced more than
twenty persons to take the Vermifuge, and in every case witli
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. Hardie, 124 W Cannon street,

jy As a Spring or Summer Medicine we would
recommend Dr. J. Hostetter’s celebrated Stomach Bitters
above ail others. Its strengthening and invigorating effect up.
on a debilitated system is truly astonishing. Its tonic action
on the liver, its tendency to drive all humors to the surface,
thereby cleansing the system from all impurities, is what has
gained from these Bitters such an enviable reputation, bias
much as they are pleasant to the taste even as a beverage, and
are in general use as a family medicine wherever known. For
sale by druggists and dealers generally. d*c2w my 26

ty A Dyspeptic Cured by Oxygenated Billers.—Let
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
Oxygenated Bitters.
I began to lie afflicted In 1844 with Catarrh, and the difficulty
increased rapidly until December, 1860, 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
1 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,
FREDERICK T. WALLACE.

hand, and will retain ttie most weighty rupture with perfect
ease. The following certificate will speak for Itself.
“ 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 he adjusted over the seat of the disease, will obviate much
of the difficulty usually experienced in fitting of a truss accu
rately. We therefore recommend its use to the subjects of that
disease. H. 11. Steiner, M. D.

the durability of the oil painting, tire correctness of the daguer

the size of life, and from the smallest daguerreotype of deceased

83f Inhalation in Consumption.—Bronchitis ha
lt YNG ITIS, and other Diseases of the Chest and Throat, sue
cessfully treated by the inhalation of vapors and Powders, by
absorption and constitutional treatment, as practiced at the
Stuvesant Medical institute, New York City.
The unprecedmted success which has 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 col minis
of the Press, in order to bring it to the knowledge of such as
may he 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. IV e have indubitable proofs in out possession
THAT CONSUMPTION IN ALL ITS STAGES CAN BE CURED ; ill the
first, by tubercular absorption ; in tiie 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 assi rt, that even now. Consumption is in
curable, such are behind the age. To all, this great truth must
Vie apparent, viz: that the medicines inhaled in tiie form of Va
por or Powder, directly into the Lungs, must he much more
effeci ive 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 tiie 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 oase so hopeless
that Inhalation will not reach! The means, too, are brought
within tiie 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 aud 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 that
nature and art hath given us, Uiat “our davs may he 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.
gress of 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.
