AUGUSTA, GA.
SATURDAY MORNING, JAN. 1. 1859.
From the ('hr ■hided; .Sentinel, I he. 31.
Mr. Editor: The committee of the Senate ot
Georgia, appointed to investigate the affairs of the
Western and Atlantic railroad, have given. *o their
report, u list of attorneys, and the ar»onnt paid
each for services, and have expressed their regret
that they had “not been able to se= that the value
of the service to the road is, i" every case, com
mensurate with the large sums paid.’ It appears
from the report that more money has been paid
me than any other attorney; and it would be but
reasonable for the readers of the report, and the
• newspapers which have published that part of it,
to conclude that I was one whose “service to the
road” was uot “commensurate with the large sum
paid” me. But, being satisJudWiSkt the committee
did not refer to me, in the remarks I have quoted,
and that they examined into the facts before ex
pressing their opinion, I should have taken no fur
ther notice of it, but for certain considerations
which have recently been brought to my attention.
And all I shall now do will be to give briefly a few
facts, for the limits of your columns would uot al
low a full statement of all the services I have ren
dered the road, nor have I time or inclination to
furnish it.
I have been engaged as Attorney for the road
since the spring of 1852; have prosecuted and de
fended a great many cases in which the road was
a party ; the claims in all amounting toa very large
sum; and, m October, 1857, having brought to a
close all tne cases in which I was employed, ex
cept two, (and one of these I thought was in such
a condition that, it would be prosecuted no fur
ther, l I made out an account against the road for
my services, specifying each case and the lee
charged. In this account one case (Kinney vs. the
Hoad,) was not included, as it was uncertain how
much more service I would have to perform in de-
fending it, before its termination.
Before presenting my account to the officers of
tile road for settlement, I asked and received, in
writing, the opinions or certificates of three very
highly respectable gentlemen and able'and expe
rienced attorneys, of the value of my services in
the most important eases in which I had been en
gaged. The fees in these cases made the larger
part of my account. The account and the opin
ions of the attorneys were submitted hi Air. Spul
lock, who, after examining them, remarked that
he supposed that no object.on would be made to
the payment of my fees ; but, as the Auditor was
absent, it could not then he attended to. He
promised me, however, that as soon as the Auditor
re'tirned he would look into the matter, mid a
pa-- bill for the amount due would be seut me.
ba. .... was not done, and no decision was made
by the Auditor (so fur as I know) until after Gov.
brown was inaugurated. The account and the
opinions of the Attorneys were then sent to Mil
ledgevtlle for the Governor’s examination and de
cision, and he objected to its payment.
While in Milledgevillo, in the mouth of Novem
ber, (1857,i 1 called on Gov. Brown to know why
he objected to the payment of the account, and he
said he thought J had charged too much; hut
proposed to have the account paid if 1 would de
duct live hundred dollars. This 1 refused to do. I
then offered to submit the whole matter to three
disinterested attorneys as arbitrators, the Govern
or to select one, 1 another, and these two a third,
and the road to pay me the amount of their award,
whether more or less than I had charged. This
proposition the Governor declined. After reflect
ing on the subject, and wishing to avoid a lawsuit
t.i which I would be a party, 1 told Gov. Brown
that the case in favor of Kinney vs. the road was
not in the account; that 1 hud been defending it
for several years; and proposed to defend it to its
end in Cass Superior Court, and rather than have
a lawsuit, to give to the road, or make no charge
for my services in that case, if lie would pi.y the
lees in the account presented. This the Governor
readily agreed to, and wrote a letter to the officer
at Atlanta, stating the agreement and directing
the payment of the account; which was done on
my return to that city.
1 think that this simple statement ought to sat
isfy any one that. 1 have not wrongfully obtained
one dollar from the Western and Atlantic railroad;
and it ought to be tolerable strong evidence that
Gov. Brown believes that the road has paid me
less than would have been awarded me by disin
terested and competent attorneys, or he would not
have declined this fair mode of ariiving at the
value of my services, and have settled my account
on the terms he did. But he this as it may, Gov.
Brown settled my account for fees, and whatever
may be said by others, I think I may safely con
clude that his friends will hardly charge him with
having paid me more than was justly due. Under
this statement of facts, can there be any just
ground of complain* against any one, so far as the
amount paid me is concerned ? Warren Akin.
Will the GmstitutmialM, and all papers that
have published that part of the report to which I
have referred, please publish, as an act of justice
to all concerned, the above also ? W. A.
Affray and Stabbing. —A disturbance occurred
about one o’clock <:n Thursday morning, among
some sailors and others, at the corner of East Bay
anil liroud streets. The policemen near at hand
were called to the spot by the noise of the affray,
and after some discussion and such inquiries as the
occasion permitted, some three or four who were
represented by their companions as most deeply
implicated, were arrested.
The prisoners, after some parleying, acquiesced,
apparently, and proceeded towards the gu ird house
with their captors. They hadgone,ho(vever,butafew
piaces, when oue of the prisoners, William Harvey,
assaul'ed andresisted with violence the policeman,
Patrick Tracy, who held him in charge. Ilarvey
stabbed the policeman, Tracy, deeply in the right
side and near the lungs; and, in return and de
fense, Tracy used his cudgel, bringing dowu Har
vey, who soon recovered, and rallied to the assault
with renewed violence.
On hearing of the dangerous assault made on
Tracy by Harvey, the other policemen, endeavor
ing to relieve him, suffered the other prisoners to
escape.
The assaults and attacks of Harvey continued
for some minutes with great violence, and resulted
in two additional wounds inflicted on Tracy; the
second near the left shoulder, and the third in the
left arm. The desperado was finally conquered
and taken to the guard house, to which, also, po
liceman Tracy was conveyed by his associates for
medical attendance.
Dr. Middleton Michel was called in immediately,
and gave attention and examination to the case ;
and, meanwhile, in view of the probability of an
early and fatal termination, a magistrate had been
requested by Lieut. Wilson to take the deposition
of the wounded policeman. His evidence in sub
stance is given in this report.
Wm. Harvey, who is retained in confinement to
await further' results and proceedings, has been,
we believe, a seaman on board the ships Ocean
Monarch, and Medora, and for some time a steward
at sea. it is reported that he has a sister in Phila
delphia, at the Nelson hotel, corner of Broad and
Callowliill streets. -He is a native of this city.
At a late hour last evening the wounded police
man, Patrick Tracy, was reported easier, and hopes
are entertained of his recovery, although the
wounds are such as to require some time fora de
tinite opinion.— Charleston Courier, Lee. SI.
A Git and Daughteh or Flora Macdonald.—An
aged maiden lady, Miss Mary Macleod, died on
October ‘29, at the village of Stein, Warnish, at
Skye. She was the daughter of the late Major
Alexander Macleod, by Ann, eldest daughter of
Mrs. Macdonald, of K'ngsburg, better known by
her maiden name Flora Macdonald—a name cele
brated in history. Major Macleod served for some
time in America, at the period of the revolution,
as an officer in the royalists corps; and his wife
showed something of the maternal spirit in con
veyinst intelligence to her friends during that pe
riod of trouble and danger, having on one occasion
narrowly escaped while carrying a message sewed
up in a button on her dress. After the hostilities
had ceased Major Macleod and his family returned
to the Island of Skye. They both died there, and
their only daughter, Miss Macleod, continued to
reside in the house at Stein till her death. She
had been long in infirm health, and had nearly
reached the age of uiuety.— London Times.
Blaze-Proof Dresses. —The London Me.lical
Ttiios says: “ The melancholy accident bv which
the ladies, Laura and Charlotte Bridgman and
Miss Plunkett, have been such fearful sufferers,
teaches a lesson which must not be neglected.
The light fabrics manufactured for ladies' dresses
must be made blaze-proof. Nothing can be more
simply. The most delicate white cambric band
kerchief or fleecy gauze, or the finest lace, mav, by
simple soaking in a weak solution of chloride of
zinc, be so protected from blaze that if held in ti e
flame of a candle they may be reduced to tinder
without blazing. Dresses so prepared might be
burnt bv accident, without the other garments,
worn by the lady, being injured.”
Save Your Rags. —There are in the United
States nearly eight hundred paper mills, which
produce two hundred millions dollars worth
of paper. To produce this large amount of paper,
about ten million dollars worth of rags are re
quired, and this large quantity must be saved from
the scraps of the domestic circle. Is it rot appa
rent to all that economy should be practised by
families in this particular, even if they do not de
sire to profit bv the saving themselves?
HowtheHobsk Crciskr was Tamed.—Accom
panied by one individual alone, a nobleman of in
disputable nerve, temper, and physical strength,
Mr. Rarey proceeded to the encounter. “Whatever
happens, my lord,” said he, “don’t you speak or
interfere. At least, not till you see ne down un
der his feet, and he worrying me!” This compact
made, he resolutely walked into the arena, which
consisted of a loose box divided by a lialf-door of
four feet, or more, in height. Stepping quietly up
to this barrier, he leaned his arm upon it, so that
it was just covered by the iron bar that ran along
the top, and looking fixedly at the savage he in
tended to tame. Cruiser—from whom muzzle, head
•tall, and all such impediments had been removed,
we believe, by some mechanical arrangements, for
»one dared to go near enough to touch him—made
his usual dash at the intrepid stranger, to pounce
on him as a cat would on a mouse. Rarey stood
perfectly motionless, neither altering his attitude
nor the expression of his countenance, in the slight
est degree. Thinking he had his enemy by the arm,
the horse seized and worried at the bar, as if he
would have bitten it through. Again and again
retiring for an impetus, to the further corner he
rushed at the mysterious stranger, actually scream
ing in the uncontrolable violence of his rage, Rarey
sustaining these successive charges with the sang
froid that he had shown at the commencement of the
engagement. At length, after more than an hour
of this wild scene, of its frantic fury on one side,
scientific and its calm superiority on the other, the
redoubtable Cruiser, blown, exhausted, dripping
with sweat, and completely puzzled in his equine
mind as to the proprieties of this figure, which lie
could no longer believe to be human, came quietly
close to it, and true to his nature, warped as it was,
smelt at it, and touched it with his nose; then Rarey
threw open the half-door and walked boldlv up to
him. The “salt was now on the bird’s tail,” and
when his own peculiar method had been resorted
to, and Cruiser converted into a quiet, docile, and
not particular showy hack, had been ridden before
astonished hundreds, the horse-tamer was univer
sally recognised as such, and both the papers and
the public expressed themselves satisfied with Mr.
Rarey,
How Coffee Came to be Used.— it is somewhat
singular to trace the manner in which arose the use
of the common beverage, coffee, without which
few persons, in any half or wliollv civilised country
in the world, would seem hardly able to exist. At
the time Columbus discovered America, it had nev
er been known or used. It only grew in Arabia
and upper Ethiopia. The discovery of its use as a
beverage, is ascribed to the Superior of a monas
tery, in Arabia, who, desirous of preventing the
monks from sleeping at their nocturnal services,
made them drink the infusion of cott'ee, upon the
report of some shepards, who observed that their
flocks were more lively after browsiDg on the fruit
of that plant. Its reputation spread through the
adjaceut countries aud in about two hundred years
it reached Paris. A single plant brought there in
sixteen hundred and fourteen became the parent
stock of all coffee plantations, in the West Indies.
The extent of consumption can now hardly be
realised. The United States alone annually con
sume at the cost of its landing, from fifteen to six
teen million of dollars. You may know the Arabia,
or Mocha,the best cott'ee, by its small beau of a dark
color. The Java and East Indian, the next in
qualtitv, a larger aud paler yellow. The West
Indian Rio has a blush greenish gray tint.
The New Cent. —The editor of the Chicago
Times, being in Philadelphia some days ago, visit
ed the United States Mint, and was shown a speci
men of a new cent. One side of it, lie says, “is
like the same side of the one now in use ; but the
other side is new in fact and in design ; the figure
being the head and part of the bust of a female,
representing the popular imaginary impersonation
of liberty in the form of a goddess.”
It is intended to issue this new coin, some time
in the coming year. The piece, like the one now
circulating, is' produced from a mixture of two
metals—copper and nickle—three parts of the
former and one part of the latter.
Spiritualism. —Dr. B. F. Hatch publishes a card,
announcing that nine years of the most intimate
acquaintance with the facts, philosophy and theol
ogy of spiritualism, lias most fully convinced him
of its demoralizing and ruinous tendency, and
that lie now inteuds to devote himself to thorough
ly exposing tlie delusion.

Washington, Dec. 27.— Judge Samuel Black,
will, there is little if any doubt, be appointed Gov
ernor of Nebraska,-and the vacancy on the bench
of that Territory thus created, will he filled by a
gentleman of Georgia.
While the opponents of the old soldiers’ hill esti
mate that from eleven to liftcen millions would be
required to carry it into effect, its friends say, from
die most accurate calculations, If< it the umount
would only he three million dollars per annum.
There is, however, no prospect of the bill becoming
a law.
General Walker is believed to he in the vicinity
of Mobile, and Gen. Henniugsen is still in Wash
ington.
Among (he recent confirmations by the Senate
were Alexander Wilson, to be District Attorney
for Utah Territory, and Alfred M. Say, to be Dis

t3/~ -V Good Comparison.—The Rev. William Rou
latt, a well known .M ethodist clergyman at Naples, draws the
following amusing bat apt comparison between Dr. M'Lank’s
Celebrated VERMIFUGE, prepared by Fleming brothers, of
Pittsburgh, Pa., and a ferret:
“ A ferret, when placed at the cnteance of a rat iioie. enters
the aperture, travels along the passage, seizes upon the rat.
exterminates his existence, and draws the animal's defunct
carcass to the light. And in like manner have I found
M’Lane's AmericanVermifugetooperateonworms,thoße dread- I
ful and dangerous tormentera of children. This remedy, like I
the ferret, enters the aperture of the mouth, travels down the j
gullet, hunts round the stomach, lays hold of tlie worms,
shakes.the life out of the reptiles, sweeps clean their den, and
carries their carcasses clean out of the system. This, at least,
lias been the effect of the Vermifuge upon my children.
A neighbor of Mr. Houiatt, Mr. John Briggs, adopts the
simile of the reverend certifier, thus both giving their most un
equivocal approval of this greatspeciflc, after having wit
nessed its operation upon their two children. Bet others try
It, and be satisfied.
XW Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR. M'LAXE'S
CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manufactured by Fleming
Bros., of Pittsburg, Pa. Ail other Vermifuges in comparison
are worthless. Dr. M’Lane’sger. uiae Vermifuge, alsohiscele

nr*Good Mediciiiox.—lt lx 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 caret, of Colds, Goughs, Asth
ma, Croup, Influenza, Bronchitis, Ac., 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, Blllious Complaints,
Heartburn, Headache, Gout, and many less dangerous, but
still threatening ailment', such as Pimples on the face, Worms,
Nervous Irritability, Loss of Appetite, Irregularities, Dizzi

BT A Curd from Or. .Inines M. Jarrett, of the
New York Lung Inflrmaiy My connection, for the hast
eight years, with the above Institution, as Chief Physician,
and a twelve years’ course of steady devotion to tire Cure of
Pulmonary Consumption and its kindred diseases, together
with my unrivalled opportunities and advantage of pathologi
cal research—aided not a little hy a perfect system of Medi
cal Inhalation—has enabled me to arrive at a decisive, direct
and successful course of treatment for tlie positive and radi.
cal cure of all diseases of the Throat, Lungs , and Air-Pas
sages. By Inhalation, the vapor t.nd curative properties of
medicines are directly addressed to the diseased organs and
the integument. Ido not advise the use of Medical Inhala
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 had the honor to preside, are too
well known to need any eulogy or comment from me. At
the solicitation of many private and professional friends,
through whose philanthropic aid the above charity has been
long and liberally supported, and after due consideration, I
have concluded to make sin k arrangements as will bring the
benefits of my experience and treatment within the reach of
ail, and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those only who
entered the Infirmary, or who were able to visit me at ray
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, Sic., Sic., will be forwarded by ex
press to any part of the United States or the Canadas.
'lEiijfa—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’ and thr
balance. SC, 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 ease, ami their symptoms in full,
can he 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 thirt y days. Letters for advice promptly
answered. For further particulars address
