Ci as Ki‘T u. : The Yunk.«•«*’* A[ciiint iii Money, and nothing cl-c but money, has CTer been the grand impelling uiotive-pow tr that stirred up the Yankee to action of any sort—whether in polities, religion, love war or what no*. Old Ben Wanklin was but the high-wrought rtodel, or impersona. ti >n, of the money-ltfVmg, money-worshiping money-getting, and money keeping Yankee and though lie tfas honcstcr than one in ten thousand or ten million of that lucre-loving, race still, it would seem, that he himself pursued the course of honesty, not so much as a principle, but as "the best policy ” Indeed, of all t'uoac smart pithy maxims he has placed in his “Poor Richard’s Alma nac,” forty-nine in fifty arc about making money, or saving money, such as, "u penny a Jey makes a great a- jesr” J 'lie that by the plough would thrive, himself must either hold or drive.” ifcc. Not a maxim in the whole colh ction—if our memory serves us, is there, inculcating morality, or religion, or any of the nobler virtues or graces of charac ter, purely for their own sakes—all as mere subsidiaries to effect some ult rior object of pecuniary or worldly gain. This has always been the Yankee’s charac ter from the day he landed on the rock at 1 Mytu iuth, to this good hour—making mon ey out of everything that came along, sacred or profane—whether daring the sultry heat of the burning rone to steal negroes to sell to Southern planters, or forging treaties to swindle the pbor Indian out of his lands, or writing lying books nl>out tlvei? betters, the and selling the same across the waters, or even among themselves. Arnold, aynnkccjsold his country —not lor the Colon elcy or Brigadier Generalship tendered hint by the British —but for the filthy thirty thousand dollars in silver that ».aa forth coming. Beast Butler, an arch-yankce, no doubt prizes the spoons an 1 other valuable treasures lie stole during the war, infinitely more than all the brilliant military honors ho won on the field of Mars. It is just so trttlf thtf genuine Puritan, Plymouth-rock, witch burning, wooden-nutmeg, riuHeal Yankee wherever you see him, if lie has not been Christianized by early emigration, or mollified by due admixture of better and more conservative blood. As an illustration of wlmt is stated above, wo notiec that the Radical ulias Yankee members of Henry Ward Beecher’s church iu Brooklyn, New York, are trying the mull* ey argument to get rid of him, for his (Beech er's) taking such decided ground in favor of President Johnson's policy. They do not, above-hoard and s<|uare-out, attempt to bribe him to change his opinion—but indi rectly and obliquely they do. They propose td reduce his salary as a punishment, think ing that that will bring him all straight again Beetiher holds out against them apparently very stout, But wo are afraid of hint; he be longs to the negro stealing and witch-burn ing tiibe, and a late letter written by him shows that he is trembling in his boots and we imagine we can almost see bis lips quivering and watering for tlio flcs'i pots of Egypt. Ilullroucl Meeting. Pursuant to previous notice, a larj;e num ber of the stockholders of the Savannah, < Iris ffin, A North Alabama Railroad met at the Court House, in Griffin, this day. C. 11. Johnson, Prosi lent of the road, in the chair. After some discussion, the following reso lution was offered, which, on motion, was re ceived and adopted. Jlrtolvcti , That the President and direc tors of the Savannah, Griffin, A North Ala bama Railroad be authorized to appi i it an agent, —a good railroad man,—to visit the financial centres of the North, with a view to negotiating the sale, or lease of the road on the condition of its being built from <!rf, fin to Newnnn in one year, and to I'euatur- Alabama, in six years, and that the President and directors be authorized to sell the iron now on the road and a sufficiency of other assets, to pay (he expenses of said agent.— It was, on motion, Urs'i/rnf. That the President be reij'iest,- cd to call a stockholders’ meeting in Now nan, Ga., on Thursday, Sept, :17th, I*oo, for the purpose of ratifying the above. On motion, adjourned to -7th September s. W. MANt.iI!AM, Sec'y. Griffin, Ga., Sept. Pi, 1 TiG. A eurious bank robbery, which occurred in St. Louis recently, lias just come to light. T'he officers of the first National P.-tnk were taking their usual lunch in the back part es the banking room, leaving several large piles of mot;ay jn the drawers on the desks. The utoney nats all right, if they had kept their • yesupon ii ; but it appears they were all s'* intent upo.i gsipiug down-their mid-day meal, that, for a moment at least, they lost sight of the stocks and greenbacks. That moment was enough to enable some adroit thief to creep in sirze a $ 10,000 package, and steal out unobserved.

Aa cases of cholera are occurring in the neighboring cities," we have rea o*i to fear th t Spalding Uoun’y will be made to suf fer iuoic or less from tins terrible disease. It is a remarkable fact that no man has 1 ccn able to discover the remote, predispos iug, or exciting cause of this, hentofure, fa tal epidemic. Nor has any one been able to indicate the localities least subject to its rav ages. In 183”, Lexington, Ky., with a population of <> 00b, lost within six weeks 70(7, while IjOuisviMe, with five times the population, suffered hut little. Lexington is situated in a high, rolling country, distant from a water course, and having no stagnant water in or near it, while I«ou : svilIe, on the banks of the Ohio, is bounded on two sides by ponds ; nor is this an isolated ease of the travel of this scourge. 'The disease seems to be governed by no laws known to the science of medicine. When cholera first visited New York it appeared to prevail almost ex clusively among the drunkards and filthy in habitants around the Five Points, but be fore it reached the West, its character as sumed so different a stand-point, that when it entered Lexington almost every good citi zen took pains to keep drunk with brandy, r.s a preventive. Nor does the treatment seem to he at all understood. It we rely upon the reports of able physicians, we are led to believe that the remedies which prov ed successful in one locality, to’ally failed in another, but my humble opinion is that this is mainly owing to the stage tis the disease when the medicine is used. That nine tenths oftlie deaths from cholera have been superinduced by the improper use of the term “premonitory symptoms,” l do not doubt. If the disease is not treated as chol era in its incipient stage, viz : wh n it is in the form of diarrhea, the chances arc more than two to one that it will terminate fatally. When cholera is prevailing as an epidemic almost every ease of <1 arrheasoon runs into rice-water < ischarges, on the very first ap pearance of which-) the life of the patient is in imminent danger, though still within the probable reach of remedy, but if neglected a few hours the disease assumes a fatal as pect. The skin of the face and ban Is be comes wiinkkd from the exc, s-ivceold sweat ing—presenting the appearance of hav ing long been steeped in soap-suds colored with indigo. The countenance is ghas ‘iy. the eye alone retaining the natural appear ance. This is the collapsed stage, and very soon the pa'ii tit is seized with spasms in the feet and legs, and anon in the mu.-ch-s of the abdomen, when the shrieks of the afflicted one become so terrific as to cause the It ird est heart to bleed, and the stoutest by standers to shudder. After spending eleven years in the labor ious practice of my profession, I withdrew from it in 1532, being then a citizen of Nicholasville, Ky. In 1833 the cholera made its appearance in Lexington. Feeling myself under deep and ceaseless obligations to the people of my county, who hal never withheld from me any favor asked, I deter mined to give my services to them during the prevalence of the epidemic; hence, 1 went to Lexington to gain what information I could. I was received with open arms by the profession and the citizens. I found the physicians all treating the disease with mus tard and ipecac, but could not find a man who had been thus cured. I was told that nearly all the convalescents had been under the care of Col. Combs, and a little baud ol good Satiiat itans, co-w irkers with him. That night I accompanied the Colonel and a few of his friends on their errand of uicrey, but language would fail me should I at cuipt a description of tho scenes witnessed. The street lamps hud died out, pitchy darkness, like a black pall, overhung the city—ever and anon pierced by the lightning's glare while peal on peal the thunderbolts shook our mother earth ; a storm raged with ter rific wildness, and yet through all this coin mot on ol the elements our hearts were made to bleed, by the w ild cries and wilder shrieks of the siek and living. <>n this side and on that, yen, from almost every house issued forth cries of lamentation, or screams for help. We passed that memorable night in trying to give relief, but 1 have no means of knowing how fur, if at all, our darts were blessed. The next day 1 went to Versailles, thir teen miles West, where 1 found Pr. Mohan on and other good physicians treating the dis ease with calomel and opium, and upon in quiry, I learned that in every case where the medicine had been taken at the diathea stage, the patient was speedily relieved, but would of course say that he did not have the cholera, but only the premonitory symptoms. The information induced tbo determination on my part to go homo and >trire to cure the ifiscnse riillnl premonitory tpn>ptom>, and accordingly, on my arrival, I called together the physicians, laid before them my views, and recommended "JO grains of calomel and 2 grains of opium, to be given in every case, if po sible, immediately on the appearance of diarhea, or looseness of the l> we>, and the more effectually to accomplish this end, 1 published a lmidbill, urging everybody to send to me for a dose, ns above; and to alarm them enough to insure its use, i charged them not to wait, fora physician, hut to take the medicine at once, if their b nvels became at all disordered. Well, the re-ult was, that after the disease had subsided, every man ami woman 1 met would acknowledge that they had labored under a looseness of the bowels, and had taken the medicine, but they would Lug’h at the idea that they had an attack of the cholera. Nor is this to ho won dered at when we consider the insidious and deceptive m inner of attack made by this terrible lnakidy. Almost every cholera pa tient will toil you that alter feeling a sense of fullness of the abdomen, and a slight bear ing down, a full and free discharge (which is sure- to follow) not only relieved but agree ably reln-hed, and thus deceived, thousands upon thousands have been lulled into the belief of security, until, without pain or se rious annoyance, the malady passes the first stage and assumes a dangerous attitude. Os course l do rot siy that diarrhea is always cholera, but I do say that diarrhea is the incipient stage of chop ra. It seldom makes its attack in any other way, and 1 Would urge every one living where chol era is prevailing, to regard darrhea or loosi ne.-s of tie b >w, N ; s the first stage of the disease, and to take at once a lull tb.-t* of burnt brandy, and then take 2*> grs i Horn el and T grs' opium, the calomel to be r* j■ .. 'd i! tl.* f ’ do-t to 1 ring bil Lous discharges. I never knew a case of cholera to terminate fatally after the liver h.d been made to perform its functions free ly. It may not be amiss to say that all who have had cholera, are more than others liable to another attack. 1 have had the disease Kevcn times, and in every ca*e, except in 1832, it run into the second or rice-water stage before I knew it wag cholera, yet the calomel and opium always relieve m -. I fear my motives lor presenting the fore going to the public, may be misconstrued, as it is hard to believe in these degenerate time* that benevolence is really at the bot tom of human action, but however this may be, I will only ray, that I atn not now prac ticing nor no do I expect again to practice medicine, and if I am seeking to make my name live after me, my pathway Is, certain ly, not in this direction. J. W. S. Mitchell, M. I). For tlie I»aily Herald. Mitlas and his liars. A FABLE. It will he remembered that as a severe rebuke for the ass-like stupidity of Midas, Apollo had rigged out his shallow pate with a pair of assinine ears ! There they were, at once a monstrous disfigurement, and an cm blein of his want of culture, taste, and judg" tnent! And yet he was kiiijl But if it became known that he had them, it would bring him into contempt with both cour tiers and subjects ! So he concluded to get up anew “royal fashion”—have made, and constantly wear a huge cap, of such shape and colors as exactly suited hit taste /—by which tin y might be concealed. All then seemed right. Now he could reign as king, and nobody know that he had those ears! But there was still one other trouble. Ilis “hair dresser” would see them ! So he laid him under a very heavy penalty never to mention those “ears” to any living being. But all this could not keep the fact from beirlg known. The thought that Mi das had such ears, and he only, in the who’c realm, kr.ow if, bore so heavily on the hair dresser's mind that lie could not live under the burden. And yet he could not make it known to any human being! This was the trouble. Well, he at last determined to tell it to good old “mother Earth.” So he went and dug a deep hole in the ground, and whispered in it: “Midas ha3 a** tears!" There he left the secret, filled up the hole, and, with a light heart, returned home ! But the Fable goes on to say, that a large crop of weeds sprang up from that place of interment; and ever afterwards, when shaken by the wind, they repeated the whisper : “Mii/as has ass’s turs !” And thus was the whole world put in pos-c-sion of the fact which the poor old king would not, for all the world, have had any living beiDg ever know .' The moral here is, 1-t. That “murder will out”—and so of all other reproachful acts. No “cap,” nor cloak can conceal them ; a bird of the air, or a whispering breeze will carry, far and wide, the disgraceful fact! 2d, That as the trim/ shook the weeds, then the more did they whisper! Ju-t so in all exciting times! If a man has ever done anything amiss, let him come before the pub lic for office, place, t r employment, then it is sure to come out! A reckless youth, once, in an evil hour, whipped his own mother ! Long utter that he was a candidate for (.’ongrts-n Then all the weeds began to whi.-per : “//< oner I'hijijieit his mother The little breeze grew into a whirlwind! lie was not only defeated, hut t is disgrace was branded into him so deeply that lie never recovered from it. Let, then, this truth never be forgotten: ll lli'lht-<loinij” is always safe, secure, and honorable. No whisper can ever tarnish a lair reputation. But the “cars,” if there, will come to light ! lie if will sin;/ the. irirk. and ! Sooner or later, his day will come. Hut it joes icrlt with the ujo ijht. Si lex. Gkifkin Daii.v llkhaih.
