I MORNING, DEC. 22, 1858.
f Uemember the Orphans.
Christmas is coming, with “peaco on earth and
1 good will to men,” to bring pleasant memories to
! old—happiness to the young, and a short re
st to ail, young and old, rich and poor, from the
i cai es rind the-trials which make up the sum of
■ our every day existence.
As this season of gladness and good cheer is
Approaching, to give a smile to the face of the
homeliest home, mav we not be permitted to re
mind onr city readers of the inmates of our Or-
Hv i.lian Asylums, who have no home—only an asy
lum—no parents to plant for them the Christinas
| • -tree, and gladden them with Christmas gifts—no
"hope of a happy Christnifu, with kindred and
|H» friends. Ought not these innocent victims of mis
fortune to have some experience of the pleasures
which the season brings to children who are tpr
tunate in having kindred and parents and homes?
They do not need any of the necessaries of life.
Clothing and food and shelter has been provided for
them, through the liberality of the City Council and
the thoughtful benevolence of individuals; but they
need something more than this. They want some
happy experience of life, some evidences of the
■. sympathy of others, which will soften for them the
hardness of their lot—some of the simple pleasures
which other children enjoy. It has been the effort
of the kind people who have charge of them, to
supply these wants, as far as it was in their power,
and the pleasure of many of our citizens-to aid
Bp them, by remembering the orphans, in their chari
ties, whenever a festival like %hat* of Christmas
has made them happy in the happiness of their
children. We trust that this cheaply-bought
pleasure will be enjoyed by many of our people
during the approaching holidays—indeed, we
, know that it will be, if they will only remember,
in the excitement by which they are surrounded,
I where and how it is to be obtained.
The Augusta Chess Club.
We understand that at the meeting of members
of this club, held at the Masonic Hall, on the as-
BL ternooa of the 17th inst., a Constitution and By-
Laws were adopted, and the following geutlemcn
elected officers for the ensuing year, viz: C. F. Me
Cay, President; W. W. Montgomery, Vice Presi
dent; T. P. Stovall, Secretary and Treasurer,
and Major Gaiedner, E. C. Sofge, and J. K. Jack
sox, Councilmen. • \
The Club was organised with forty-three mem
bers; and a front room in the third story of the
Augusta Seed Store building, on Broad street, has
• been engaged, and is now being fitted up for its
meetings.
| New Music.
We have received the following recently-pub
lished music from Messrs. Geo. A. Oates & Bao.,
of this city:

the popular song, “ Lula is Gone.”
“My loved one and my own, or Eva.”
These two ballads are written and composed by
Stephen C. Foster, author of “Old Folks at Home”
and other popular songs.

[ COMMUNICATED. J
Augusta, Dec. 2ist, 1858.
Mr. Editor: I have just read with pleasure your
comment upon the late act of our legislature pro
viding for the codification of our laws. This act
was doubtless drawn up by some one who in his
ignorance supposed that he was going to make
" every man his own lawyer”: those who labor
under any such insane idea will do well to look at
the New \ ork code before making up their minds
fully upon the subject. The fourth edition of that
code, which I now have before me, is a large oc
tavo volume of eight hundred pages, only about
one eighth of which is the legislative act; the other
seven eighths being composed of notes giving the
various interpretations placed upon different por
tions of that act by the Courts—and, like a roling
snow-ball, it gathers as it goes. Each edition be
comes more and more laden with such interpre
tations ; and they follow each other so rapidly
that nearly every year a new edition has to ap
pear. Up to 1855 four bad already appeared,
namely, one in 1851, another 1852, still anoth
er 1853, and the fourth 1855. In his preface
to the fourth edition the editor remarks. “This
is not a mere reprint with additions; it is, in
the most enlarged sense, a new edition ,” (the ital
ics are his own); and those who will take the trouble
to compare the fourth with any of the former edi
tions, will see that he is fully justified in the re
mark. Nor is this all. In the city of New York
there are three courts of general and concurrent
jurisdiction, to wit: the Court of Common Pleas,
the Superior Court of the city of New York, and
the Supreme Court, (this last not analogous to our
Supreme Court, the analogous court there being
called the Court of Errors and Appeals). The
Court of Common Pleas and the Superior Court
have each six judges; the Supreme Court four.
Any one taking the trouble to examine the notes
to the Code, will ,find that not only do the three
courts very often put three different constructions
upon the same part of the Code, but even the judges
of the same court do not always agree. And as
each of these judges holds what is called a
special term, by himself, (all the judges of one
court only sitting together at what is called
a general term) the confusion arising from the
conflicting decisions can readily be imagined. I
need only refer to the proceedings of the late legis
lature to show how little relish the people of Geor
gia have for conflicting decisions. And yet,
strange to say, the late general assembly of Geor
gia, while condemning the unsettling of the law
by Judges Benning and McDonald, have commited
a piece of folly, compared with which the acts of
Judges Benning and McDonald sink into utter in
significance, and have thereby laid the foundation
for more litigation than the most sanguine lawyer,
be he ever so much of a Quirk, Gammon, or Snap,
ever dreamed of.t It will not do to say that our Su
preme Court “ will make uniform” (I borrow from
the late legislature) the decisions upon the Code.
In the first place, it does not always pay to carry a
case to the Supreme Court, and parties often sit
down under what their counsel believe to be an
unjust interpretation of the law, because the amount
in contest will not justify the expense of a writ of
error.
In the next place, admiting that the Supreme
Court might eventually get the code correctly in
terpreted, what mathematician will undertake to
calculate the expense the State and citizens of
Georgia will be put to, before such correct inter
pretation is arrived at? New York has already
paid, and is paying, dearly for her experiment;
let us be warned by her example. It must be
borne in mind, too, "that the New York code is
only “an act to simplify and abridge the prac
tice, pleadings, and proceedings of the Courts of this
(New York,) State. ’ Whereas,' the act of our late
legislature contemplates the entire uprooting of all
law and the substitution of the code, allowing the
three codifiers twenty months in which to com
mence and complete their work ! Why, sir, Chief
Justice Marshall, Chancellor Kent, and Justice
Story could not do it in twenty years.
Luckily, the legislature, in its own peculiar,
blundering way, has left a loop hole, out of which
it is to be hoped the codifiers will have the good
sense to crawl. The act says, the code “shall, a*
near as practicable, embrace in a condensed form,
the laws of Georgia,” &c. I trust the codifiers
will take advautage of this clause, and attempt
only that which is practicable.
Let Well Enough Alone.
An Angel in “Men’s Clothes.” —We read and
hear, occasionally of “ministering angels,” and
they are generally of the “gentier sex.” That
these cannot lay exclusive claim to this title, there
is occasionally a demonstration in the shape or
some signal act of kindness performed by those
whose natures are supposed to be steeled to suffer
ing. An instance occurred a few days since in this
city. In a dwelling on Thames street, a little babe,
“the lamb of the flock,” was lying in convulsions, its
parents looking on with aching hearts at its suffer
ings, and doing what they could to alleviate them,
with the aid of a physician. Suddenly and unex
pectedly a stranger entered the door, noiselessly
and almost unperceived, and taking a seat beside
the little sufferer, called for warm water and com
menced bathing its feet. He said he was passing
in the street, and seeing people hurrying to and
from the house and out, he had dropped in to see if
he could be of any service. Patiently and silently
he prosecuted his labor of love, till he had the satis
faction of seeing the little one restored to conscious
ness, when he arose, and taking his hat, departed
as noiselessly as he came, unknown, and scarce giv
ing the grateful parents opportunity to thankbim for
his kind attention and valuable aid. May the bless
ing of Hun who said “Suffer little children tocome
unto me,” attend him through the journey of life.

Jefferson County.—We, the Grand Ju
rors held for Dec. term 1858, make the following presentments:
Through our committees, we have examined, and find the
Books of the Superior and Inferior Courts, as well as the Re
cords of the Ordinary, correct and neatly kept. Also, the
Jail is in good condition, except the sills of two windows in
the upper story, on the south side—the repairing of which we
recommend; as well as a more thorough cleansing of the low.
er rooms, to remove the offensive odor.
We express our thanks to the Infirior Court, as well as the
Commissioners, tor the good condition of the Roads and
Bridges generally; but some repairs are necessary, to-wit:
Jackson’s bridge cn Rocky Comfort, Reedy Creek bridge at
or near Old Jefferson Bath, Rocky Comfort bridge near Louis
ville, and the Ogeechee bridge, (the last two on the road lead
ing to No. 11, Central Railroad) are in bad condition, and we
request that the Inferior Court have the necessary repairs
made as early as possible; we also request the corporate au
thority of Louisville, to have the bridge across a ditch, near
Miss Mary Key’s residence repaired, as it is in a dangerous
condition.
The cause of education, we present, as one worthy the earnest
consideration of the people, and we have to regret that the poor
school fund falls farshort of meeting the reasonable demands
upon it. W e therefore request, that provision be made for the
enlargement of this fund. We have examined the condition of
the pauper fund, &c., and recommend that the Inferior Cour
should be more careful in placing persons upon the pauj er
list, and not do so before they are fully satisfied that they are
entitled to it—as we find several on said list whom this body
believe should not be there ; also, that the Treasurer be care
ful to whom the money is paid, that the proper persons may
receive it, and none others.
We are sorry to say that crime is rapidly increasing in our
country, and we attribute it in part to the inefficiency of the
present jury system—great latitude is allowed ; criminals have
many facilities to aid them in evading the penalty of the laws;
many of their trials are nothing more than mock trials; the
majesty of the law is degraded and transgressors encouraged
—we do not know that a remedy can be provided ; but If by
repealing the clause of the Constitution, that establishes tlia
trial by Jury, as “heretofore used in this State,” a new enact
ment could be so framed as to make the Jury system more
rigid and efficient, and yet accord with Republican principles,
we should he highly pleased—we invite the attention of the
public to this important matter.
As the sessions of the Superior Court, for our county, con
tinue often longer than one week we recommend the era pan
neling of Jurors for the second week, or longer if necessary—
and we earnestly request our Representative and Senator in
the legislature to use their influence to have a bill to this effect
passed the first opportunity.
In taking leave of his honor Judge Holt, we tender him our
thanks for his kindness and courtesy to this body, and the
satisfactory manner in which he has discharged the important
functions of his office. Our thanks are also due the States At
torney William R. McLaws, for his efficient and prompt as
sistance to the Grand Jury.

preparation rests upon its real merit. Thousands all over the
country are using it, and it does all it claims through (he va
rious publications that it can do. Hair will grow on a bald
scalp by its use ; hair will be preserved and beautified by ts
use ; hair will turn from gray to its original color by its use.
We do not claim that a red headed gentleman or lady can be
turned into individuals with raven locks or auburn ringlets,
but gray hair will be restored to the original color. Reader,
wherever you live, or any place you reside, Wood’s HAIR
RESTORATIVE is sold. Enquire for it at all the Druggists,
and wherever such articles are usually obtained, and you will
find it as we state.
Caution.— Beware of worthless imitations, a3 several are
already in tie market, called by different names. Use none
unless the words (Professor Wood’s Hair Restorative, Depot
St. Louis, Mo., and New York,) are blown in the bottle. Sold

®3?" The use of Dr. Hosteller's Stomach Bitters
for Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Heaviness of the Stomach, or any
other like affection, is second to none in America or abroad
To be able to state confidently that the Bitters are a certain
cure for the Dyspepsia and like diseases, is to the proprietors
a source of unalloyed pleasure. It removes all morbid mat
ter from the Stomach, purifies the blood, imparts renewed vi
tality to the nervous system, giving it that tone and energy
so indispensable for the restoration of health. The numerous
acknowledgements of its superior excellence and beneficent
results, have assured the proprietors that it cannot but prove
a great cure to the afflicted, and impart vitality to the thorough
system. dfiicl dec!7
Good Medicines.—lt is estimated that Ayer’s
CHERRY PECTORAL and CATHARTIC PILLS, have
done more to promote the public health, than any other one
cause. There can be no question that the Cherry Pectoral has
by its thousands on thousands cures of Colds, Cougli3, Asth
ma, Croup, Influenza, Bronchitis, &c., very much reduced the
proportion of deaths from consumptive diseases in this coun
try . The Pills are as good as the Pectoral, and will cure .more
complaints.
Everybody needs more or less purging. Purge the blood
from its impurities. Purge the bowels, liver, and the whole
visceral system from obstructions. Purge out the diseases
which fasten on the body, to work its decay. But for disease
we should die only of old age. Take antidotes early and
thrust it from the system, before it is yet too strong to yield.
Ayer’s Pills do thrust out disease, not only while it is weak,
but when it has taken a strong hold. Read the astounding
statements of those who have been cured by them, from dread
ful Scrofula, Dropsy, Ulcers, Skin diseases, Rheumatism,
Neuralgia, Dyspepsia, Internal Pains, Billions Complaints,
Heartburn, Headache, Gout, and many less dangerous, but
still threatening ailments, such as Pimples on the face, Worms,
Nervous Irritability, Loss of Appetite, Irregularities, Dizzi
ness in the Head, Colds, Fevers, Dysentery, and indeed every
variety of complaints for which a Purgative Remedy is re
quired.
These are no random statements, but arc authenticated by
your own neighbors and your own physicians.
Try them once, and you never will be without them.

l"W A Hard from I)r. James M. Jarrett, of the
New York Lung Infirmary.—My connection, for the past
eight years, with the above Institution, as Chief Physician,
and a twelve years’ course of steady devotion to the Cure of
Pulmonary Consumption and its kindred diseases, together
with my unrivalled opportunities and advantage of pathologi
cal jreßearch—aided not a little by a perfect system of Medi
cal Inhalation— has enabled me to arrive at a decisive, direct
and successful course of treatment for the positive and radi
cal cure of all diseases of the Throat, Lungs, and Air-Pas
sages. By Inhalation, the vapor and curative properties of
medicines are directly addressed to the diseased organs and
the integument. Ido not advise the use of Medical Irhala.
tion of any kind, to the exclusion of general treatment; and
although I consider it a useful adjuvant in the proper man
agement of those fearful and often fatal diseases, yet I deem
it necessary that each patient should have the benefit of both
general and local treatment. The success of my treatment in
the above diseases, and the high character of the Institution
over which I have so long bad the honor to preside, are too
well known to need any eulogy or comment from me. At
the solicitation of many private and proSessional friends,
through whose philanthropic aid the above charity has been
long and liberally supported, and after due consideration, I
have concluded to make such arrangements as will bring the
benefits of my experience and treatment within the reach of
all, and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those only who
entered the Infirmary, «r who were able to visit me at my
office. Hoping, therefore, that the arrangement will give en
tire satisfaction, both to my professional brethren and the
public, I would respectfully announce, in conclusion, that I
can now be consulted personally or by letter, on all diseases
as above, and that the medicines, the same as used in the In
stitution, prepared to suit each individual case, Inhaling Va
pors, Medical Inhalers, Ac., Ac., will be forwarded by ex
press to any part of the United States or the Canadas.
Teems— My terms ot treatment by letter are as follows,
viz: sl2 per month for each patient, which will include medi
cine sufficient for one month’s use ; also, Inhaling Vapor, and
an Inhaling Apparatus. Payment as follows : $6 to be paid
to Expess Agent on receipt of the box of Medicine 1 and tho
balance, $6, at the expiration of the month, if the patient be
cured or is entirely satisfied with the treatment. Patients, by
giving a full history of their case, and their symptoms in full,
can be treated as well by letter as by personal examination.
Patients availing themselves of Dr. Jarrett’s treatment, may
rely upon immediate and permanent relief, as he seldom has
to treat a case over thirty days. Letters for advice promptly
answered. For further particulars address
JAMES M JARRETT, M D
No. 820 Broadway, comer of Twelfth-st.., N- Y.
P. S—Physicians and others visiting the city, are respect
fully invited to call at the Infirmary, where many interesting
cases can be witnessed, and where our improved apparatus,
