Enoch Knigui', a respectable inhabi tant, who was shot dead on his plantation, a few miles below, by liis Overseer, Thomas M. Foster, who, with his brother, John Fos ter, who was present at the time, surrender ed himself an hour or two afterwards to the civil authority, and they are now both iu Hnemcnt. It \va state j. !_, .or brothers, be fore the jury oi inquest, that Mr. Knight, in GOtiWquenceof alledgcd neglect on the part of his Overseer, Thomas iVI. Foster, had giv en lii.ni a written discharge, and order to quit the premises, which he refused to obey, un less Knight would prove the charge, or pay him for (he whole year lor which he was en gaged—and had expected K. on Monday morning, ami that he might bring w ith him other persons, to eject him bv force, or use his negroes to that effect, he requested his broth er John, who lived pist across the river, oppo site the house of Knight’s in which lie lived, to be on the bar, and if he heard a difficulty, to come :utoss and prevent him from being injur d—'hat Thomas had locked up the h 0.!.; . and was standing outside, when Knight came np and demanded the key, which was refused, unless he would comply with the terms above stated, when he assumed a threat ening attitude toward the depoie nf, and was told by hint not to strike him on peril of his lif ‘ % *i J he ksew hi', Thomas, was sick, arid not able to light him—that the deceased then want and broke open the back door of the house and went in, and Thomas F. quickly unlocked the frontdoor, and as he was going in, d* ceased struck him on the head with a brick-bat. At this time John F. having heard loud talking, came up, and saw deceased strike his brother, and when he went into the house, deceased had his brother unde r him in a corner, and was heating him over the head with the butt end of a pistol—and he went up to deceased, and, asking him if be meant to murder his brother, seized him by the arms and pulled him off’; and on the instant, after doing so, arid loosing him, his brother tired with the pistol Indore the Jury—a large Itorsu pistol—and shot deceased in the, shoulder. — On being shot, deceased put his hand to the wound, said oil Lord! and walked out of the room. Thomas then asked John what he should do, and was answered did not know; but it was afterwards understood between them, that John should go immediately across, the river, and Thomas take his horse and cross at the Ferry above, and that they would consult when they mot, which they did, and concluded, after doing so, to come and give themselves up. John said he intended, as he went from the house, to inform Air. Eve, a neighbor, or his overseer, of deceased’s situa tion, and get him to go to hint, hut was inform ed by a negro on the plantation, to whom he called,that neither were tlier- * out —h did’ut sec his brother shoot, it was done ro quick, nor whether lie got thepistol from his person, or the table beside him; and uid not think, from the place of the wound, or the manner deceased walked, that it was mortal. The testimony of i)r. < we. ni>toii.ym, the examin ing surgeon, was, that deceased cante to his death shot, discharged into the left shoulder, arid penetrating thence into the lungs—and the verdict of the Jury of Inquest, was, that the deceased, crime to his death by a pistol discharged by Thomas M. Foster, his brother John being present at his request.—The wounds (about three or four) were situated, between the point of the left shoulder, and' the collar bone, and the shot, we In lime, were buck-shot. Thomas Foster, aft r he had given in his testimony, said he wished to state to the persons present, as the reason why he refused to leave tlie premises tii! pai l his year’s wagi ?, that lie felt he had not neglect ed his duty ; and he lud lived with deceased the previous year also, and had never heard any complaint from h’.m till very lately, and that deceased had lately informed Mr. Eve, while riding with him over the plantation, that, lie was pleas <1 with his appearance, and the manner in which it had been managed.— Thomas Foster had a wound on his head, said to have been received from deceased, which had Med profusely over his face, breast, and cloths. We have been induced to give the above summary of the statements of the two broth ers,Ac. in consequence of the great excite ment ami intense curiosity prevailing in the public, and the numerous conflicting reports abroad. No oilier white person was present at the lime., and the fact was first communica ted by two negroes of the deceased, who came instantly up to the city.

J3- It Nprin .Hom’oT coiiuly, r 531 IE undersigned, after great labour end. ex -1 pense, is at length enabled to oiler this esta-J hlisiimetit t.; the notice of the public. Ina climate like ours, where the enervating in fluence of long and warm summers is experienced Ire all, inviting the operation of causes, tending to the production of autumnal disease \ it is an object of no trilling import to the community to have recourse to a situation in which the assaults of discas • may 1> ■ prevented, it i violence mitiga ted, and recovery rendered speedy and effectual. Such a place the under--i<n:< .1 honestly hdiev< ■ he is offering in th< Montpelier Spring. Independent of the advantageous location of this establishment ; situated in a region unques tionably healthy; the Medical qualities of the wa ter, are of a character entitling it to high claims upon the confidence of the community. The wnteis of Saratoga and Builstou have long since, rendered them places of extensive Ti sr.rt, both hy invalids nnd persons of fashion. And the signal benefits derived from their use by persons labouring under Chronic Diseases (especially of tire digestive organs) have obtained for them well merited celebrity—and from a pretty accurate analysis, by gentlemen of competent science, impaling the result with the analysis ol the Waters of Saratoga and Ballston, as published by Dr. Mead, they find the waters of the Montpelier, Spring, to possess, with a trilling exception the same chemical qualities. Asa chalybeate contain ingmore Iron than thefonner and less than the lat ter, with a large proportion of the muriates of so da and lime ; ihe most striking difference being the absence of uncombined fixed air, with which the Saratoga water abounds. Of the beneficial application of this water in disease, the proprietor can bear ample testimony. In chronic affections of the Liver, Spleen, and tin ir concomitant functional derangement of the Stomach ; lie can confidently assert that lie has seen no remedy of equal nature. In dyspepsia, that Hydra of modern times, it is an invaluable remedy, when aided as every remedy must be, by lie temperate use of a well selected regimen. In diseases of the skin, and particularly Tetter in all itsvariety, it is a certain remedy.ln dropsies from visceral obstructions, chronic rheumatism, and that relaxation and debility consequent upon a residence in low, unhealthy situations, its value is nut easily estimated. Abundant testimony could he produced to establish the truth of this state ment, were it necessary ; but an intelligent, com munity will make the experiment and decide for themselves ; and with their award the proprietor will cheerfully rest, the reputation of the Spring. The undersigned assures the public that he would not thus recommend the use of the Mont pelier water, but having Keen extensively engag ed in the practice of medicine in Georgia for near ly thirty years, claims the right to judge of the remedy he recommends. This -fountain is situated in one of the most healthy and best improved situation;; of Georgia," 1 seventeen miles front Macon near the road leading from that place to Thomaston. His building is large, airy and comfortable, situated on nn emi nence, high and commanding; surrounded hy springs of the purest water, and refreshed by an atmosphere pure and invigorating. The proprietor will he able to accommodate comfortably one hundred regular boarders, and as many transient persons as may favor him with their company; and as interest and liberality are inseparably connected in such business, it is bis determination to keep as good a house in every sense of the expression, as is kept elsewhere in the up-country. I lis BAR will be stored with the best; his ST Alsl. ES well furnished and attended, li is prices will be the same as those charged at the Indian Spring. Comfortable Tents will he prepared for those who prefer furnishing their own hoard. NICHOLAS CHILDERS. Montpelier, Monroe county, May 18th, 1831.

This site j lias been ehnivn hr cause it presents the greatest j advantages to facilitate the researches of the 80- ! Union! student; till country around it abounding! with ever', variety of medical plants ; are! the sit uation being the most healthy and delightful in the West, m connin' —and because the occupancy of the large (’ llcg Edifice, together with ground of eve ry variety of soil for an extensive botanical garden, bus been presented re us by the beard oi tnisv-es c f \\ ertliingten < 'oilege. There will be attachrd to the institution, a Dis pensary for analyzing and. preparing Vegetable Medicines; and an Infirmary, where persons from the neighborhood, or a distance laboring under fi vers, consumptions, dispepsa, liver complaints, gravel, ulcers, fistulas, cancers 4 tic. fcc, will b. sum rsfully treated, without bhnling, mercury or the/o- fe, and from which the student will acquire a correct knowledge of the nature, operation and • uperior efficacy of vegetable agents in removing disease. The necessity for an Institution ofthis kind i:i the west, t<> lie under the direction of the ecnipe tent S’rofessors is strikingly evident. It is mi insti tution that is designed to concentrate,and dissem inate all the knowledge of Drs. of Medicine and einpyries, sages; tv savages that will demonstrate to the student and the siek that vega tables alone afford the only rational, safe and effectual means of removing diseases without impairing die con stitution, or endangering life or limb. The pre sent system of practice which treats diseases ol every form with metalic minerals, the lancet or knife is dangerous as the lamentable facts which every day presents too fully illustrate. Nor is this truth more clearly exhibited titan the fact that vegetable substances alone, are void of dan ger, and powerfully efficient when administered; a reference to the success of our New York In firmary and the success of ignorant botanical physicians, proves this fact. The College and Infirmary will lie opened the first week in December, where students from al parts may r enter and complete their Medical Ed ucation.!, and where persons laboring umterevery species of disease shall receive prompt and faith ful attention.
