. lte d some $25,000. Near the Asylum are three ( ‘ )t t | ie prettiest private residences that I have ever seen, the one on the adjoining lot, owned l,v Dr. Wdey, brother of L. M. Wiley, the mil lionaire of New York, and the two opposite by the two Messrs. Ross, wealthy men and large wholesale Merchants of this city; but to de scribe all the strikingly beautiful buildings wl.i< h adorn the hills of Macon, would bean endless task, and quite a tax upon your time; one. however. I cannot pass without a short description. It is not entirely finished, but 1.i.1s fair to rival most of the palaces of Fifth avenue. It is owned by W. B. Johnston. The . vps are of pure white marble, and alone cost ►ollie $37.0'. It lias all the modern improve ments and conveniences of water, dumbwaters. rtenin-heaters, speaking tubes, &c., &c., and • lid will cost, I am informed, w hen completed, o wr $109,000. While returning to tbe Hotel, I had the good . .rtuue to meet my old friend W. W. Parker, who invited me to his place of business, where ] ],ada most favorable opportunity of feasting air eyes upon the beauty and fashion bf the ■ Lice. I had often heard of the beauty of Ma un ladies, and must add my testimony after seeing the'throng who are pouring into this popular establishment, attracted by the new spring goods which they were receiving and Jispl.-iying. Notwithstanding the many evi dences of wealth and retirement in Macon, I xvas totally unprepared for the magnificent dis pho of costly fabrics here exhibited. If I had been at the establishment of some Marchand !/./<,» on the H ndccard des italienstrt. Paris, I -leiubl have thought it a matter of course, but judge of my surprise when shown silk dresses that cost, nt wholesale in New York, one hundred dollars each, and other things in proportion I could only wonder that Macon could -upport such an establishment, but Par lier. no doubt, knows his own business.

It there is any good in it, the Doc torwill have the credit of bringing it before the Mr con public. Last mid not least, there I are the two Messrs.

BROWNL The Atlanta Intelligencer says Gov. Drown was in that city several days last week, looking after the bu- F sinem and Interest* of the State Road. e Where did be put up—at the hotel, or at the cabin - ; by the road side? s The above morceau appears in yesterday’s u : Savannah JiepuUiran. What does our cotem ; porary mean I There may be a great deal of t wit and sarcasm in his paragraph, but we con t fess we have not optics keen enough to discov i er it. s If Gov. Brown did put tip “at the cabin by t the road side,” it is presumptive evidence that - he was willing to sacrifice his personal conven . ience to “the business and interests of the State 1 Rond.” He is too honest to neglect his duties in or -1 der to secure comfortable quarters at a first- I class hotel, and is too good a Democrat to hes itate at ‘■putting up” in a log cabin. The people of Georgia know that Governor ; Brown has been a faithful public servant, and ■ the sneers and inuendoes of oppositinn journals cannot shake their confidence in him. Mr. L. 11.

Extracts from the Speech of Sen ator Brown, at Tammany Hall, New York. “Down in Mississip|d, upon theJvrtnlvsTf Hie~ !• ather of W aters, there lives nap man, woman or child who does not glory in the expanding j commerce of New Turk. We want Cuba to extend the commerce of Boston, Philadelphia, ' Baltimore and New Orleans, as well as that of New York—to each according to its deserts. (Capt Ry nders- 1 Boston would get a very small ; share, then, I reckon.’ Laughter.) These are the reasons why I approve of acquiring Cuba, and all persons, of whatever political faith, must be impressed by them, if they will cand idly weigh them. Then I have a little private reason of my own, which it would not be proper for me to keep from you. I want Cuba for the extension of slavery. I speak for my self, and not fur any party. Let Greeley un derstand this, let Garrison understand this, let ; all the dirty abolition crew understand it.— (Cheers.) 1 speak for myself and those who agree with me. We are told, if we take the island of C :b-i, we shall offend England and France The devil we will. (Cheers and laughter.) Suppose those governments should go on stilts, if we don't bring them down d—n me. (Renewed cheeringnnd laughter.) What is it to us whether they like it or not ? When England, the bloody old bruiser (applause,) has gone slashing round the world insulting everybody, fighting everybody, ami plunder ing every body (A voice here said some- thing, which was not heard at the reporter’s stand; other voices instantly cried ‘ Put him out,’'Put him out;’ ‘Throw him out, ‘Throw him out,’) Captain Rynders counselled peace, but the cries continued. Then there was a great rush towards somebody ; w Idle from a dozen to thirty men surged to and fro, bearing the said someone towards the door. Rynders called out, “clear the way there, a d let them out; the rest of you keep back there and let them put him out,” and the like, till the party was expelled. “ Lilt I have heard it objected to by some of our friends, who are not abolitionists, nor in the abolition interest, that Cuba is a slave ter ritory, and that its acquisition is not desirable on that account. Now, speaking for myself, and myself alone, and those w ho simply agree with me, if it were to come to us as a free ter ritory, and a free territory alone, then my courage would very much ooze out at the points of my fingers. Look at slavery as it is there—is it at all to tie compared to slavery at it is in the southern States? I would appeal to the abolitionists, to Banks, to Seward, to Garrison, ami to one who is still lower in the mill, tollorace Greeley, whelbeFthe condition of slavery in Cuba is not infinitely worse than in the southern States? Then, does it not follow that by attaching them t<> the same government, those slaves will experience the same treatment as our slaves now* do I I could not come here as a southern man, a Mississippian, and decry any personal sentiment 1 may have upon this point. 1 am a pro-slavery man; I believe that slavery is of div ine origin (applause)--Unit God decreed it from the foundation of the world (renewed applause) —that the African race, from their creation, were doomed to be slaves to the white man (continued applause;) and my im pression is thut every one of you would be bet ter off it lie had a negro to wait upon him. — (Cheering nnd applause.)

THE RIGHT ARM; OR, THE PATRIOT AND TR AITOR. Fifty years ago a terrible storui shook the city of Loniloß. At the dead of the night, when the storm was at its highest, an aged minister, living near the suburbs of the i'ity, was aroused by an earnest cry for help. I.ook | ing from his window he beheld a rude man, j chid in the coarse attire of the sweeper of the public street. In a few moments, while the rain came down in torrents and the storm growled above, the preacher, leaning on the arm of the scavenger, treaded his way through the dark suburbs. That very day a strange old man had fallen speechless in front of the scavenger's rude home. The good-hearted street-sweeper had taken him in, laid him on his own bed—lie had not spoken once—and now he was dy ing. This was the story of the rough man. And now, through dark alleys, among mis erable tenements, that seem to topple down upon their heads, into the lonliest and dreari est suburbsthey pass. That white-haired min ister walked up a flight ot stairs that creaked beneath his tread, and then into the death ' fUtrm—. It was, in'D-ntht-tv-rnWrable place. A glimmering light stood on a broken chair. There was the rough wall, there the solitary garret window, with the rain beating through the rags and straw, which stuffed the broken pains—and there amid it heap of cold ashes the sinnll valise which it seemed the stranger had with him. In one corner, on the coarse straw of the ragged bed lay the dying man. He was but half dressed—his legs were concealed by mill, tary boots. The aged preacher drew near and looked upon him. As he looked, throb —throb—you might hear the death-watch ticking in the shattered wall. It was the form of a strong man, grown old with care more than age. There was a face that you might look upon once, and yet wear it in vonr memory forev er. Let us bend over the bed and look on that face. A bold forehead seamed by one deep wrin kle between the brows—lung locks of dark hair, sprinkled with gray —lips firmly set, yet quivering as though they hud a life separate from the life ot the man—and then two large eyes, vivid, burning, unnatural in their steady glare. Ah, there was something too terrible in that sac so full of unutterable loneli ness, unspeakable despair -that the aged min ister started back in horror. But look, those strong arms are clutching at the vacant air—the death sweat starts m drops upon the eold brow —the man is dying ! Throb—throb —throb— beat the death-watch in the shattered wall. •• Would you die iu the faith of a Christian ? ’ faitesed the preacher, as he knelt thereon the dark floor. The white lips of the death-stricken man trembled but made no sound. Then, with the agony of death upon him, he rose into a sitting posture. For the first time ! he spoke: “Christian!” lie echoed in that deep tone which thrilled the preacher to the heart “ will 1 that faith give me back my honor? Come with me—with me, far over the water. Ha ' we are there! This is my native home. — Yonder is the church in which I knelt in childhood —yonder t! e green on which I sport ed when a boy. But another flag than that waved when 1 was a chill. And, listen, old man ; were 1 to pass this street as I passed when but a child, the very babes in their cra dles would raise their tiny bauds, and curse me. The graves in yonder chiircli-yard would shrink from my foot-steps, and yonder flag would stain a baptism of blood upon my heart.” That was an awful death-bed. The minister had watched the “last night,” with a hundred convicts in their cells, and yet never beheld a scene as terrible ns this. Suddenly the dying man arose. He totter ed along the floor. With those white fingers, whose nails arc blue w ith the death-chill, he threw open the valise. He showed a military coat trimmed with silver, an old parchment, a piece of cloth that looked like the wreck of a battle-flag. “ Look ye, priest—this faded coat is spotted with my blood!” he cried, as old memories seemed stiring at his heart. “This is the last coat I wore w hen I planted the banner ot the stars on Ticonderoga. That bullet-hole was pierced in the fight at Quebec; now—l am—a —let me whisper in your ear.” “ Now, help me. priest,” he said in a voice growing suddenly tremulous; help me put on this coat of blue and silver. For you see,” and a ghastly smile came over his face, “ there is no one to wipe the cold drops from my brow ; no wife, no child —1 mu»t meet death alone; but I will meet him as I met him in battle, w ithout fear.” While he stood arraying himself in the worm-eaten coat of blue and silver, the good preacher spoke to him of faith in Jesus. Yes, of that great faith w hich pierces the clouds of human guilt and rolls them back from the face of God. “ Faith!” echoed the strange man, who stoisl there erect, with the death-light in his eye.— “ Faith, can it give me back my honor? Look ye, priest, there over the waves, sits George Washington, telling to his countrymen the pleasant story of the seven years’ war—there iu his royal hall sits George of England, be wailing in bi* idiotic voice the loss of his col onies—and here am I—l—who was the first to raise the flag of freedom, the first to strike a blow against that King—-here ami dying like a dog!” The *we-»tricken preacher started back from the look ot tl»e dying man. while—th.ob — throb —throb -beat the death-watch in the •haltered wall. “ llusli, silence along th* Hum Uyira!" he j WBHsrvd iu U»«t wild, übteut ton*, u thong 9 ■-peaking to the dead ; “ silence along the lines. , Hark, you, Montgomery, we will meet there in victory or death! Hist! silence, my men —not a whisper as you move up those steep | rock*! Now on tny boys, now on! Men of ; the wilderness we will gain the town. Now up with the banner of the stars; np with the flag of freedom, though the night is dark and the snow falls! Now —now!” shrieked the ' death-stricken man towering there in the blue uniform, with his clenched hands waiving in the air—“ now, now I one blow and Quebec i is ours!” And look. His eyes grow glassy. "Witli ; that word on his lips, he stands there—ah! j what a hideous picture of despair, erect, livid, : ghastly I There for a moment and then he falls! He is dead! Ah! look at the proud form, thrown cold and stiff upon the danqi floor. In that glassy eye there lingers even y et. horrible energy, a sublimity of despair. Who is this strange man, living here in this rude garret, this man, who in all his crimes still treasured up the blue uniform and failed . tlug I Who is this being of terrible remorse ? This • man whose memories link something of heav en and more of bell ? I Let us l<s>k at the parchment and the flag! Thu old minister unrolls that faded flag, it was a blue banner, gleaming with thirteen i stars. He unrolls that parchment. It is a Colo nel’s commission in the continental Army, ad- L ' dressed Benedict Arnold! ’ Ami there in that rude hut, while thedeath watch throbbed like a heart in the shuttered ’ | wall—unknown, unwept, in all the bitterness of desolation, lay the co"spe of that patriot and ’ ! traitor. ’ i Ob, that our true Washington had been there to sever that good right arm from the 1 i corpse, and while the dishonored body rotted j into dust, to bring home that good right arm, 1 : and embalm it among the holiest memories of j the past. 1 ( For that right artn had struck many a gal , lant blow for freedom, yonder at Ticonderoga, at Q.'ebec, Champlain, and Saratoga—that arm yonder beneath the snow-white mouu ’ I tain, in the deep silence of the dead, first i raised into sight the banner ofthe stars. It was during the renowned expedition through the wilderness to Quebec, that Arnold encamped for two or three days beside the River ot the dead, near a snow-white mouu- I ■ tain which rose in lovely grandeur over all , other mountains, p<to the autumnal sky. A single soldier ascended the mountain with the hope of beholding from its summits the ro:ks and spires of Quebec. When he came down Arnold took from his breast, where lor four days in privation and danger he had carried it, 1 a blue banner gleaming with thirteen stars. — ' lie raised it into the light, and for the first time the Connecticut banner floated over the solitudes of the Dead River. This is a fact at tested by history and corroborated by tradition. Arizona Emigrants. M asiiington, March 22nd. Gen. llenuingsen is now on his way to !

Important Decision. The last Griffin Union contains the opinion at’length of Cabiues* in the c ieo i f Bankston, use, Ac., c.<. Greer. Bankston, who is Clerk of the Inferior Court of Butts county, ■ brought the suit against Greer, upon the in formation of Joshua Patrick, who alleged that Greer had returned his taxable property at a valuation of only $19,000, when it was really worth $40,000, and claimed to recoxer ten dol lars for every hundred dollars’ worth of prop erty concealed by defendant. Judge Cabiuess held that the act of 1804, giving the inf inner ten dollars, Ac., is not now in force, being in consistent with, and therefore repealed by, the act of 1845, which substitutes another penalty for making a false return of taxable property, viz: imposition of a double tax the first year, a treble tax the second year, Ac.: and there ' fore the Judge ordered a uonsuit of Bankston’s case. Iu aniving at this conclusion, the Judge examined the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of Pnyn : vs. Coursey, 2<'th Geo. Rep., and contended that the onlyq> >int involved in and decided by that opinion was that a crim inal prosecution to convict the defendant of a false return was not necessary to a recovery by the plaintiff: the question of tbe continued vitality of the aot of 18 14 was not decided by the Supreme Court.— Columbus Enquirer. Mcsclk Men. —To those atheletic young men, who seriously contemplate adopting prize fighting as a profession, it may be well to state that scientific pugilists usually come to a bad end. The father of Mr. T. Hyer who enjoyed the distinguished honor of participating in the first ring fight in America, died of too much liquor; the Tipton Slasher died of too much row ; Belcher Kay died of too much knock-in-the head; Wm. Poole died of too much bullet; Paudeen died of too much knife, and Yankee Sullivan died of too ranch vigi lance committee. So they go. Any number of Chickens, Pets, Slashers, Ac., have deceas ed in various violent and wretched ways.— They almost invariably come to a bad end, and some of them, we are pleased to state, have come to a rope's end. In fact, pugilism, professional, or otherwise, don't pay. The champion nmy strut, and swagger, and swear, with his shiny black belt for a while, but fate sceuis to have ordained that he shall die mis erably.— CUavelaud i laindealer.

There is an article selling throughout the country that lias attained the widest celebrity ever known as a remedy for Liver Complaints. We have reference to Dr. Sanford’s luvigurator or Liver Remedy, that lias performed cures almost too great to believe, were it net fur the undoubted evidence that accom pany the testimonials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known for Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a gener al debility that so often baffles the skill of our most eminent physicians. Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of the eminent physicians of New York, and it is said, most of his cases were treated with the Invigorator with such invariable success that he Lus been induced to offer it as a family medicine, and let the wurld have the benefit of his discovery. It those who are troub led with debility, headache, languor, or slow, linger ing fever will try a bottle, we think they might save I physicians' bilis, and days, perhaps years us suffer- , I ing. — Ohio Statesman.
