Augusta Orphan Asylum— lnteresting
Scene.
The annual tribute of flowers was laid yesterday
afternoon upon the tomb of the late Isaac S. Tct
tle, by the orphans of the Asylum, of which he
was the munificent benefactor. At four cr’clock,
the orphans, accompanied by the Board of Trus
tees, and the Matron, the Rev. Mr. Ryersos, and a
number of others, ladies and gentlemen who take
an interest in the Institution, proceeded to the city
Cemetery. Each pupil carried in a vase a bouquet
of choice and beautiful flowers, and on assembling
around the grave of the honored dead, placed them
upon the tombs of Mr. and Mrs. Tuttle. The lit
tle boys stood uncovered, and both boys and
girls deported themselves with that gravity
and silence becoming the occasion, and by their
presence expressed a eulogy more eloquent than
words. The flowers were mostly gathered from
the gardens of the Asylum, the former resi
dence of Mr. Tcttle, now by his will the home of
the orphan. Their cultivation was his solace and
amusement in the decline of his life. Their bloom
and beauty are now gracefully associated with his
memory and his virtues.
The Rev. Mr. Ryerson, upon the invitation of the
Trustees, made an address to the group assembled
around the grave. It was beautiful, eloquent, and
appropriate.
The ceremony was simple and unassuming ; but
it was touching and effective. Augusta has often
been the scene of more imposing and ambitious
spectacles, but never of one more pleasing, or more
productive of refined emotions.

will be again lighted up for another performance
by the Association. The beautiful play of the
Hunchback, by Sheridan Knowles, is selected for
the occasion. The Association is capable of pre
senting this very charming piece with effective in
terest, and we hope that Augusta will give, on that
night, renewed proof of a disposition to appreciate
the efforts of an Association whose aims are lauda

New Wheat.
We were shown yesterday some samples of new
white wheat, (raised by Messrs. Jxo. Miller and
Samuel Clarke. Jr., farmers in the neighborhood
of this city) which looked exceedingly fine al
though not dry enough for the mill.
The yield of wheat, on the farms near Augusta,
•is very promising, and in a few days cutting will
be over and threshing will commence.
We believe it is the general impression that the
wheat crop of Georgia and Tennessee, and we
might include the whole country, has never pre
sented a more flattering appearance for an abun
dant yield.

Walker aud Nicaragua.
As a matter of interest at this time to many of
our readers, we give a brief sketch of the history
of the Republic of Nicaragua, and of the event 3
which have occurred during Walker’s occupation
of that country.
In 1815, Nicaragua, which, with the rest ofCen
tral America, had been subject to Spain for near
three hundred years, asserted its independence,
and made an unsuccessful effort to throw off the
Spanish yoke. Six years afterwards, in connection
with Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras and San
Salvador, it again revolted from the mother coun
try, and these five States after being incorporated
for a short time as a part of the Empire of Mexico,
under Iturbide, in 1824, after the overthrow of that
Emperor, associated themselves together in a con
federation, similar to that of the United States.
This confederation was destroyed and reconstruct
ed several times, from 1824 to 1839, and from that
period to 165<», a number of partial confederations
were formed and dissolved. The States since they
were disconnected from the Mexican Empire have
been nominally free and republican, but have
been ruled by a succession of lawless military des
pots, and exhausted by constant wars among
themselves, or among the factions into tvhich the
population of each has been divided. The last
attempt to unite them under a stable government
was made in 1851, when Nicaragua, San Salvador
and Honduras formed a federal league. This was
dissolved in 1852 aud during the same year, Senor
Pineda was elected President of the Republic of
Nicaragua. He died in 1853, and Senors Castillon
and Chamorro, being candidates to fill the va
cancy, Chamorro carried the election by force of
arms, and banished his rival from the country.
This was the beginning of that internecine war,
which was waged for two years, between the
Democratic party and the partizans of Chamorro,
who had usurped the government, and which was
finally concluded by the interposition of Walker
and his followers upon the invitation of the Demo
cratic party.
Castillon banished from Nicaragua had organ
ized an expedition in Honduras, with which he in
vaded Nicaragua, and defeating Chamorro in a
pitched battle, obliged him to take refuge in Gran
ada, to which city he laid seige. The seige contin
ued for nineteen months, and the city was not
taken until after the arrival of Walker. Chamo
ro died whilst it was progressing and Castillon
invited Walker with his followers from Califor
nia to join the Nicaraguan army. This lie did, in
June, 1855, with tifty-six men, who with him, were
enlisted in the army of Nicaragua. His first bat
tle was at Rivas, his next at Virgin Bay, and his
next at Granada, which city he captured in Octo
ber, 1855. On the 23d day of that month, a treaty
of peace was signed by him and by the command
er-in-chief of the aristrocratic army, as Chamor
ro’s force was designated, in which Rivas was
named Provisional President of Nicaragua, for
fourteen months. Before the expiration of half of
his term of office, Rivas, an imbecile old man,
was induced to enter into a traitorous correspond
ence with the Costa Ricans, who had formed with
. Guatemala, Honduras and San Salvador, a league
against Walker. Hostilities betwen Walker and
the Allies began in March 1856, when Schlessing
eb with two hundred aud seven men was defeated
by the Costa Ricans. They afterwards surprised
Virgin Bay, where they were guilty of many out
rages upon its defenceless inhabitants, and then
occupied Rivas, with two thousand five hun
dred men, Walker having been induced by
the representations of President Rivas, at Le
on, to proceed with his whole force towards
that town to protect it from an attack which the
President stated was meditated by the Allies. He
had accomplished half the journey to Leon when
he heard of the occupation of Rivas. He im
mediately returned, and after a sanguinary battle
fought on the 11th of April, 1856, obliged the Cos
ta Ricans to abandon liivas, and at the same time
learned the treachery of President Rivas. Although
informed by Walker that he would not disturb him
in his office. Riv as soon afterwards fled from Leon,
and Don Fermin Ferrer, one of his Cabinet and a
native of Nicaragua, was appointed Provisional
President of the Republic, until an election could
be held. This occurred a few weeks afterwards,
the almost unanimous voice of the people. In Oc
tober following, the battles of Massaya and Gran
ada were fougtit. Walker was victorious in all
the engagements in the vicinity of Massaya, and
Granada, and finally concluded to burn the latter
city totheground to prevent its occupation again by
the enemy. The destruction of the town was en
trusted to General Hexningsen, who had orders af
ter it was done, to embark ail his force, ammunition,
guns and military stores upon the lake for Virgin
Bay. Whilst he was engaged in performing this
duty, he was surprised and surrounded by two
thousand of the allies, on the 22d of November,
and retreated into an old church, about one mile
and a half from Lake Nicaragua. He had with
him about four hundred men, a portion of whom
were civilians, and with this force he held the
church for nineteen days, although his ranks were
daily thined by starvation and cholera. On the
ninteenth day he was relieved by a force of one
hundred and seventy-five men, dispatched from
Virgin Bay in a steamer, General Walker ac
companying the expedition, who cut their way
through the investing force—nearly one half of
them perishing in the attempt. Gen. Hexningsen
was then permitted to embark his force, with the
ammunition, stores, and artillery (all of the artil
lery which W alker had was in Granada) upon the
lake for Virgin Bay without further molestation.
The subsequent engagement between Walker’s
forces and the allies, have occurred during the
months of January, February, March and April, of
this year in theimmediate vicinity of Rivas, Walk
er s head-quarters, near which place the main body
of the allied troops under General Canas has been
stationed. It is not necessary to recite the history
of the remarkable defence of the position of Rivas,
by Walker and his gallant band of followers, or
of its final evacuation on the Ist day of this month.
These are matters of recent occurrence, with which
our readers are familiar.
The failure of Walker to maintain his position
in Nicaragua, is to be attributed mainly to the
closing of the San Juan river, by which he was
cut off from all communication with the Atlantic
States. This was done with the aid of the Costa
Ricans and of the British naval force at Greytown
byCapt. Spencer, an agent of the “house of Van
derbilt.’’ The Accessory Transit Company, it
will be remembered, was formed in 1851—the
Company, of which Mr. Vaxdebuilt was the head,
contracting with the Nicaraguan government, iu
consideration of the franchises granted it, to pay
to that government twenty per cent, of the net
profits which it should make. This portion of
their contract had not been carried out in 1855—a
large debt was due the government from it, and
upon its refusal to liquidate this debt, Rivas, soon
after his elevation to the Presidency, annulled the
contract with it, and made a new one with another
American Company. This Company for a while
was in possession aud enjoyment of the transit
route, and transported a large number of recruits
to Walker from the United States, but in Decem
ber of last year the route was closed by the seizure
of the steamers, and ot ail the strong points upon
the river by an armed force of Costa Ricans, com
manded by Capt. Spencer, the agent of Vander
bilt. Thisenterpnseof closingiheriverwasclever
ly planned and clct erly executed, Spencer being the
agent, Vanderbilt, the Costa Ricans and the officers
of the British vessels stationed at Greytown, being
the parties to it. It was a serious blow to Walk
er. Efforts have been made to open the river,
(and at one time a portion of it had been regained
from the Costa Ricans), but two expeditions have
tailed to accomplish this object, and for several
weeks before the capitulation of Walker, the
whole transit route from Greytown to Virgin Bay
was in the possession of the allies. Cut off from
all communication with the Atlantic States, and
finally with California, and forewarned that the
schooner with which he designed to make his es
cape, when he could hold Rivas no longer, was to
Le seized by a l nited States man-of-war, Walker
at last abandoned Nicaragua, and accepted for
himself and his men, a safe escort to the United 1
States. Thus ends the first chapter of the history 1
of the opeupation of Nicaragua by Americans.
It is somewhat difficult to understand the posi
tion assumed by this Government towards that of
Nicaragua since 1355. Four representatives ot
Nicaragua have been sent at different times, with
in that period, to Washington City. Colonel
French was first dispatched by Rivas, and was
refused recognition by the United States Govern
ment, because it thought that the Rivas Govern
ment was a usurpation which could not be main
tained. Padre Vigil, a native of the country, was
next sent, and was received as the regularly ac
credited Minister of the Republic of Nicaragua—
although the government and the political condi
tion of that country was, at the time, the same as
it was when, two months before, Col. French was
refused recognition. Padre Vigil returned to
.Nicaragua, disgusted with diplomatic honors, and
dissatisfied with Washington City life, and Mr.
Oaksmith was appointed to succeed him. The
Government refused to receive him, and Don
Fermin F’erber was substituted in his stead, and
the Government refused to receive him. This, we
believe, is a correct statement of the action of our
Government, iu relation to a recognition of the
Government of Nicaragua, since Walxer landed
in that country, and the establishment of diplo
matic relations with it.
We gather the facts, which we state in this arti
cle, from various sources more or less authentic,
but principally from an article in the May number
of Blackwood’s Magazine.
T. J. Stewart’s Cotton Circular.
The circular sent to Liverpool in the Asia, by T.
J. Stewart & Co., cotton brokers in New York,
and dated the 27th of May, gives very favorable
accounts of the prospects of the growing cotton
crop. We would be pleased if we could believe
his statements to be true. All the reports which
have reached us, through the newspapers, and by
private letters, obtained from conversations with
planters, from different sections of the cotton grow
ing States, go to show that the crop is from three
to four weeks later than usual, that the stand is
not good, and that there is no hope that the crop
can exceed that of 1856, even with the most favora
ble weather, and without injuries from insects or
storms.
The Mobile Daily Register, of May the 27tli,
publishes some practical facts on this subject, and
we re-pubhsh them:
The two great hindrances to the cottoD planter
are short seasons and destructive insects.
A certain length of time, with a certain summer
temperature, is absolutely necessary to mature the
plant and insure its fruition. Whatever shortens
this period a day, a week or a month, to that ex
tent diminishes its yield by cutting off' a number
of bolls which would mature but for the approach
of cold weather. The recent disasters by floods
and frost which have necessitated replanting sev
eral times, and thereby produced almost amonth’s
delay, must shorten the crop nearly one-sixth, for
one month is about one-sixth of tile growing sea
son.
But again. The later cotton is in reaching a
• certain age, when it becomes comparatively hardy
and able to resist the attack of its great enemies,
the louse and the worm, the more it sutlers, for
these insects are bred by the heat and always come
at a particular season.’ If the cotton has been
. planted early and met no backset, it is able to with-
I stand the atiack and very little damage,
but if it is late and the hot weather finds it still
small and tender, the insects are very destructive.
I Again. The same amount of cold (excuse the
[ form of expression) which kills or stunts cotton,
does not kill grass, which continues to grow, and
becomes so luxuriant that by the time a planter
1 has succeeded in getting “a stand,’’ (a regular
growth of cotton in the row) he is over-run with
grass, and he has less time to attend to it, for the
delay has thrown his corn and his cotton on his
hands at once. Now, it is conceded that freshets
1 and frosts, and various other calamities, have re
' tarded cotton at least three weeks if not a month,
. the consequences of which delay must be—
First. To cut oft' from the growing season that
much time, no matter how favorable everything
may be hereafter.
Second. The cotton will be at the period when
. the insects usually make their onslaught, too ten
, der and young to resist them, and must suffer more
severely from that cause.
Third. While the cotton is being replanted, the
grass will get a start which it will be difficult to
, check, particularly when the corn and other pro
ducts are requiring attention at the same time.
| But it may be answered to all this, that a much
larger quantity of land has been planted in cotton,
l the present year. This we think is fully counter
, balanced by the scarcity of seed, which has pre
■tumv.iiaa.cu ijantgra frniy nugnyf tnuch
was exhausted on the first replanting, and when
• this was cut down by frost, they either left their
1 fields fallow or sowed them in oats or rye, for pas
[ ture, or planted them in corn.
Upon a careful examination, therefore, we think
the next crop will not exceed the present more
than this falfs below that of lastyear, if so much.
The Convention of the Democratic party of
the second Congressional District will be held at
Albany, on Monday the 13th of July.
The railroad cars are expected to be run
within ten and a-half miles of Albany, by the first
of July.
l-W The Albany Patriot of May 28th says that
valuable and necessary improvements in that lo
cality are in operation—one hotel, several stores,
and several dwelling houses have been commenced,
and preparations are being made for one or two
large warehouses. Bricks are being made at four
different j-ards in town, and one brick yard has
been established near Kinchafoonee Creek, to
make the bricks for the piers and abutments of the
bridge. Mechanics and laborers, white and black,
are all engaged, and many more are wanted.
The Democratic State convention of Maryland
will meet at Baltimore on the 30th of July. The

New Jersey Pearls.—The pearl-hunting mania
has extended to Newark, and the brooks in that
vicinity are overrun with explorers. Several pearls
have been found during the past few days, ranging
in value from #5 to SSO. Pearls of considerable
value have also been found in Elizabethtown,
Trenton, and at various points in Monmouth coun

thick set, and never did it look of a richer green
than now.

■ above all others. Its strengthening and invigorating effect up.
on a debilitated system is truly astonishing. Its tonic action

gained from these Bitters such an enviable reputation, inas

Wood’s Hair Restorative.- Prof. Wood, the re
nowned discoverer of the invaluable Hair Restorative, still
continues to labor in behalf of the afflicted.
His medicines are universally admitted by the American
press to be far superior to ail others for causing the hair on the
head of the aged, that has been silvered for many years, to
grow forth with as much vigor and luxuriance as when blessed
with the advantages of youth.
There can be no doubt that it is one of the greatest discove
ries in the medical world. It restores permanently gray hair
to its original color, and makes it assume a beautiful silky tex
ture, which has been very desirable in all ages of the world.

A Dyspeptic l ured l»y Oxygenated Hitters.—Let
ter from F. T. Wallace :
Palmer, July 1,1851.
Sir lt 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 be afflicted in 1844 with Catarrh, and the difficulty
increased rapidly until December, 1850, producing in the course
ot 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- j
genated Bitters by the Hon. Mybon Lawrence, who at that <
time was rejoicing in the emancipation of his own lungs, from
a twent y 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 toeet persons almost daily, to whom I recommend it, hav- <
ing ftuth that they also can be healed. c
Very respectfully, y

63?- Inhalation in Gonsuiniition Bronchitis Ln-
RYXGITIS, and other Diseases of the Chest and Throat, sue
cessfully treated by tlie inhalation of vapors and Powders, hj
absorptlon and constitutional treatment, as practiced at the
Ktuvesant Medical Institute, New York City.
The unprccedi uted success which lias attended tlie method
of treating diseases of the Lungs and Throat, lias 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 he laboring under, or predisposed to swell affections. Tlie
dawn of a brighter day has at length arrived for the con'suinp
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 transfer
ination of tlie 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 tlie medicines inhaled in the form of Va
por or Powder, directly into the Longs, must be much more
effective than that taken into the stomach, where tlie diseases
do not exist. The advantage of inhalation in Consumption and
i hroat Diseases is, that medicines in the form of Vapor are ap
plied directly tothe Lungs where the diseases exist ; the sto
much 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; tlie manner of administering the Va
pors being so simple, that tiie 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
aists in the administration of medicine in such a manner that
they are conveyed into tlie Lungs in the form of vapor, and
produce their action at tlie seat of the disease. Its practical sue
cess is destined to revolutionize the opinions of tlie 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 piacS aftiongst 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
sumptlve; a method not only rational, but simple and ef
ficacious.
