And now 1 feel lmw priceless is

And oft, in silent bitterness,

AIEI,AN T C’l< )LY EVEN i\
Our city was aroused to a stale of great ex
<•iteiiic.it, on Monday last, by the death of
Ir. 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. The deceased \\..s
quite dead when white persons arrived
at the spot, and must have died in a very short
, time after being shot, — Aug. Citron.

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.

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.
