THEATRE. Mr. Hart opened his Theatre on Monday evening last, with most of his old Company, having added thereto Messrs. Whiling and Jones from the Mobile Theatres. The per formances t tins lur have been highly credita ble. Mr. F. Brown as Dr. Pangloss on Mon day evening, played to the delight of all who were present, and Mr. Whiting, as Jafller, on I uesday evening, gave sterling proof ol more than ordinary abilities. •Miss •Meadoics is again with us. She has improved, and is still improving—a little more study would make her a perfect astonishment to herself. Her trip to the mountains during the past summer has given her additional life and animation—she dances more like a sylph, and her voice is improved in sweetness and strength. Mrs. Hart sustains her characters with her usual talent, and is rising rapidly in her profession. Mr. and Mrs. Carter, Mrs. Brown, Messrs. Clark, Jones, Fenton, Sec., must excuse us til! another time. The Pences —Will come ofl next week, commencing on Tuesday. Mr. Scott, Horn Alabama, arrived a few days since with a ! stable of five horses, which still more increa-j ses the prospect for good sport. The weather js fine and the track in good order, and un-’ less we are .quite too fond in our anticipations, j we shall have a rare week of rare fun. Tap the drum— go. ‘ Mrs. Mary Lb Ledue, of St. Louis, (says a western paper,) is a candidate for Justice of; Peace.’ This amiable candidate is doubtless a genuine Whig, of the feminine gender. — j What mighty eflbrts the Clayites are making 1 to introduce petticoat government! A Sleeping Partner. —The following we | have clipped from a facetious and sarcastic little print, published at Wetumpka, Alaba- j rna, called ‘ the Loafers’ Journal.’ The edi- ! ’ tor must have waded the Coolawahee, during i the Creek war, where ‘ roaring alligators’ were more numerous than Indians. ‘A ‘ roaring alligator,’ teeming with life, | walked into our ‘ sanctum sanctorum’ a short ! time since, which we captured without any; dilficulty, ami have since been studying its anatomy, and find it a perfect ‘ cretur’ in all its parts. Although possessed of immense pqfcver, it is used with judgment and modera tion —our devil says lie sponges in printing. For the Sentinel an 1 Herald. STEAM DOCTORS. The merits of this new sect of medical practitioners, do not appear to be well under stood bv a considerable portion of the people of this section of our country. Too many among us arc gulled into a belief that these doctors offer to the world anew system, al together more efficacious, safe and cheap, titan that which lias borne the scrutinizing test of ages —is the result of ihe indefatigable researches and exertions of a host of the most talented and learned men that have ever liv ed, and has been in a state of progress to wards perfection front the days ol” Hippocra tes to the present time. The object of this communication is, to exhibit a very brief examination of the pre tensions of tins self-styled new sect. And first, I shall enquire respecting the newness of the sect. Has there not ever been a sect of root doc- j tors, Itetb doctors, Indian doctors, See., who I have claimed infallibility for curing, not only all curable, but also all incurable diseases? and j have not their nostrums been sought and used j by the credulous multitude from time imme morial to the present day? And as every in vention, however barbarous, is susceptible of improvement, I believe it no departure from truth and candor to say, that. Thompsonian isin is nothing more than the rude system Ii have just m mtioned, improved by many use ful additions, drawn from that regular practice which they effect so much to despise. One striking evidence of this source of their im provemmt is, that nearly every medicine of considerable efficacy described in their b inks, is also to be found in the Materia Medica of the regular physician. Among these is their boasted Lobelia, which the writer of this saw used by a regular physician more than thirty years ago. And their all potent JYb. 6, what is it but. tincture of Cayenne pepper and Gum Mvrrh, articles well known in our practice before the memory of the oldest man living. Also, sweating, or steaming as they are pleas ed to call it, is among our oldest remedies.— In this catalogue I presume might be included three fourths of the most efficient articles of their Materia Medic. As to the comparative efficacy of the two modes of practice, it mav not be so easy to decide to the satisfaction of the friends of the steam system, ns demonstration on such a subject is a difficult matter. But can we readily give them credit for superior success, when we recollect that they have condemned and abandoned nearly all of the ost effica cious remedies that have ever been discover ed ? At the bead of these, I will mention blood-letting. Can any unprejudiced man of sense, question the efficacy of ihis remedy, in many of the most violent and (without it) llie roost fatal diseases? It would he difficult lo find a man of sense and observation who can not, on reflection, recollect many it stances in proof of tliis fact. Indeed, it would he per fectly useless to attempt to reason with any one who is absurd enmuih to deny it. The Thompsouians will tell you that sweat ing or steaming, is a substitute equally effica cious and much more safe. But the position is untenable. We often find cases of violent local inflamation and excnitiatinnr pain, while the patient is attended with spontaneous an i copious sweating, without any abatement, of Ihe disease, and blood letlinor olves instant re lief. And is it not sometimes the case, that without blood lotting;, sweating cannot bo produced by the most formidable means that steam doctors can command ? I lately receiv-! ed from the sufferer himself, an account of a case in which the patient was almost literally boiled and baked,for twenty-four hours, with out any but the m ‘St alarming effects, and he was then obliged to resort to the regular practice for relief. Calomel, or mercury in any form, is anoth er agent which Ims received the unqualified denunciation of the Thompsoninns. The a-; huse ol this article has undoubtedly been a source of'great affliction to many, but the abuse of a good medicine by the ignorant or j careless, is no objection to its use by a skilful and careful physician. Every medicinal article der’ved from the; mineral kingdom, has,in like manner, suffered the condemnatory sentence of these infallible | doctors; and for aught I know they may he honest in their decision. It is certainly most charitable to believe they are so, and then this delusion ran he accounted for only in the following manner. Most, of these articles are very active, and when ski 1 fully used, very ef ficacious medicines, but in the hands of the : ignorant or unskklul, they are unquestionably dangerous. Having produced disastrous con sequences in such hands, ii is no wonder that they have been totally denounced by the steam fraternity. It is nothing uncommon for Ihe most sple did and useful inventions I and discoveries, to he derided and condemned bv a certain class of the community who arc unable to appreciate their merits. In regard to the safely of this practice, much may he said. That many, or nearly all, their remedial agents are safe when pro perly used, lam not prepared to deny. The safety of medicines depends much on the qualifications of the physician who prescribes them. It is not safe lor a man laboring un der a dangerous disease to depend upon .the advice of one who is ignorant of his condition, ft is not so much the medicines of the Thomp sonians that are so objectionable, as the qual ifications of those who prescribe them. To suppose that by reading two or three books, a man of n< previous medical education, can be qualified to practice medicine, is too absurd to be believed, except by the most ignorant and credulous of our race. Three or four j years faithful study, with the best advantages, ; is always considered necessary to qualify a man honorably to commence the practice of medicine. Then it may with truth be said i iliat he has barely learned the rudiments of ! his profession; a .and after tfiirty or even forty ! years of faithful study and experience, ‘ The ! patriarch pupil will he learning still.’ All this j is not necessary toqual- I ify a man to become popular iri the medical | profession. Indeed, I have often thought I that superficial men are usually the most pop ular physicians, in consequence of their seif conceit, pertness and loquacity. But the : conscientious physician has a higher object in j view than merely being popular. He feels a I most fearful responsibility. He knows that ! ! the lives of his patients are, in a great rnea ! sure, committed to his hands, and that nothing j but a most thorough knowledge of his profes sion, and careful application of that know ledge in practice, will, at Ihe trihunalof his conscience and his God, clear him from that ‘ responsibility. Now can any man of common honesty and j common sense believe, that paying twenty ■ dollars for a patent right, and reading two or ; three little hooks, and one of them a verv fool-1 ish and ridiculous one, (I allude to Tiiomp- j son’s own book,) can in any measure quality j him for discharging the duties ol’this respon-; sible profession ? The idea is too ridiculous and absurd to be admitted by any consider ate man of common sense. J can, with a clear conscience, testify to the j safety of a trreat proportion of their medicines as they call them, for three-fourths of the ar ticles of their materia medica are roots, herbs, barks, seeds, &c. of little or rio efficacy or ac tivity, and of course would he oniy negative ly dangerous in the hands of the most igno rant nurse. But their boasted Panacea, the Lobelia, is an article of a very different char i acter. It is doubtless a medicine of great activity and considerable efficacy, in certain states of the system ; but is an instrument of too sharp an edge to lie safe in the hands of an ignorant man. Dr. Paris, an English j physician of great experience, and one of the most approved authors of materia medica, says, ‘ The effects of this plant are exceed ingly various, depending upon the puration j and the quantity administered. In too large j doses, it is a deadly narcotic, producing a- j larming prostration, uncorrtrolable vomiting, j trembling, cold sweats and death.” Dr. Bigelow, an American physician of high j standing, represents its effects as analagous ■ to those of tobacco. Dr. Paris thinks l it ‘ very questionable whether its use as an enact- j ic can he justified.’ As there is a sufficient variety of emetics of equal efficacy and far greater safety than the Lobelia, I can con ceive of no necessity or even apology for us ing it for that purpose. In regard to the cheapness of those doctors, I suspect their claims for patronage on that ground are very questionable. As far as I have had any information, their bills are cer tainly as high as those of the regular faculty. I have reference to those who offer them selves as public practitioners. In their ad vertisements, if they say ought on the subject, it is usual for them to say, that their charges < shall he in conformity to the custom of the 1 (acuity. There is one fact which militates against the cheapness of their services, and that is, their want of qualification It is al ways bad economy to employ a physician of inferior professional merit. A good marks man will do better execution at one well di rected aim, than a careless or unskillful one will at hail” a dozen random shots. Although 1 thought myself well qualified when l enter ed upon my professional duties, yet I verily believe, that in difficult cases, one of my visits now is worth as much to my patient, as half a dozen were at that lime. But supposing the Thompsouians have discovered something of superior efficacy im curing the infirmities ‘(hat flesh is heir to; any thing like a ‘ Royal road to Geometry,’ is the regular physician debarred from the use of it ? The Thompsonian system is to he found upon the common book shelf in al most every neighborhood, and is no longer li. ld as a secret, consequently wo can become acquainted with it without suffering ourselves swindled out of twenty dollars; and almost every medical man, 1 presume, either from curiosity, or a desire to find something to ben efit his patients, has made himself acquainted with it. Now I would ask any man of com mon sense and candor, whether these cura tive agents (for such I admit some of them) are not much more safe and useful in the hands of a man of medical science and expe rience, than they are in the hands of one who has merely paid twenty dollars for a patent right to cure diseases, and read two or three little 1) loks ? COMMON SENSE. Communicated. OBITUARY. Departed this life near Centreviile, Talbot county, on the 10th ultimo, after an illness of five days, Mrs. Frances 13. , wife of James Caliier, in the 33d year of her age. Time in its rapid flight, hurries kindred and friends and all, to the silence of the grave. Each day as it speeds its way into eternity, hears along with it very many immortal spir its, never, never to return again to the affairs of earth. The ties which bind husband and wife, parents and children, friends and rela tives, are daily severed by the rude hand of j death, and that which seems beautiful, strong and healthful to day, may lie, ere the setting of tomorrow’s sun, divested of all its beauty,! its strength and its health. Mrs. Collier had been about twelve years preceding her death, j a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church; i and the religion that smoothed ihe asperities j of life; that qualified her properly to dis charge tlie duties of a wife and mother; that made her a valuable member of society, and | obtained for her life eternul at God’s right j hand, sustained her triumphantly when her ! immortal spirit was about Jo drop its tene ment of clay, and fly home to the Christian’s j ! reward on high. She died in hope of a bet-, | ter world than this, exhorting those about her ! bedside to persevere in the path of righteous ness, leaving a kind husband, four children, and a large circle of friends and acquaintan ces to mourn o’er their irreparable loss.— Husband, be submissive to the will of Provi dence; your loss is her gain. Children, let memory ever cling to the precepts and exam ples delivered and set before you by that I mother, whose chief t are and concern was i your welfare here and hereafter. Christians,; another and the last conquest has been won; be valiant; ‘ buckle on your armour of faith j and hope and love, and go forth to glorious war.’ Then may you ask, too, ‘ 0 death! where is thy sting? 0 grave! where is thy victory ?’ MARRIED, ’ On the Sih September last, by the Rev.

Stakes of one thousand dollars entrance, will be two mile heats. Forfeit, $500; declaration, §IOO. Three entries to form a stake. Stakes of five hundred dollars entrance will be mile heats. Forfeit, $250; declaration, $75. Three en tries to constitute a stake. Dashes of two or one mile, to suit the convenience of parties, that is, the amount to be run for. Persons wishing to make their entries, will please direct their letters to the subscriber, acting proprietor of the Hampton Course, or to Capt. Win. G. Nimmo, Secretary of the Hampton JockevClub. Augusta, Ga. Sept. 27, 1833. 35m6m ‘F. W. LACY. THE GRAND JURY SELECTED and sworn for the county of Talbot, at SEPTEMBER term, 1838, would beg leave respectfully to make the following presentments : M e present Elisha Reeves for retailing spirituous j liquors without a licence. Upon examining the Clerk’s books we find that the following Justices of the Peace have not made regular returns to that of- ! fice from the sales of estrays, and therefore are de- I faulters, to wit: B. W. Steely, R. Holt, A. Russy, Samuel McNeal, Geo. Buckhanon. John McDaniel, Green B. Clav. James Learcy. We find that the Clerk of the Inferior Court has kept his books in a neat and business like manner. We would earnestly and respectfully call the attention of the Inferior Court to the deranged condition of the finances of the county. We regret to be compelled to state that there is abundant evidence, before this hotly, of the grossest negligence, to say the least of it, on the part of those j who have had the management of the fiscal affairr of { the county. The Inferior Court appointed a commit- , tee, some lime since, to make a thorough investigation of the matter. Their report to this body embraces a | history of the monetary affairs of the cou.ity, from the time of the sale of the town lots to the time of the I appointment of the present County Treasurer. They j have bestowed much attention upon the subject of their labor, and without being able, from the loose and inef ficient mariner in which ihe books of the Countv Trea- ‘ surer have been kept formerly, to make a thorough 1 report, they report to this body that there is a very considerable deficiency ; that there is a balance some where of several hundred dollars, which is vet due to the County Treasurer ; items are entered for which no vouchers are produced, and credits claimed for which there is no proof. The Jury have thought pro per to reappoint the committee appointed by the Infe- j rior Court* to give them more time to investigate the. j matter, and earnestly request them to probe the sub- j ject to the bottom, and ascertain who it is of our coun ty officers who have been defrauding the countv of her just rights ; and they would request that committee to make a report.of their labors, as soon as possible, lo the Inferior Court; and would suggest to the Court the necessity of commencing action immediately against all former officers who may be in default. It is evident to this body that, there is a large amount due the county ; and they think that efficient steps should be taken to recover it from the hands of those who have it in possession. We examined the hooks of the pre sent County Treasurer, Mr. Thomas Bailey, and are happy to have it in our power to bear testimony to the correct and business like manner in which his books are kept. He exhibits vouchers for all sums paid out. and ha* now in his possession vouchers to the amount of some bun Ired dollars more than the amount of as sets which have been in his hand, whic’. amount he has paid out from his own private resources. If all of our tounty Treasurers had been equally correct, the 1 count}’ might now have had a large surplus. We feel : called upon to notice, particularly, the default of B. I Whithurst, Esq., former County Treasurer. It has j been represented to this body that he has admitted i having in his possession county funds to the amount of j several hundred dollars ; and from the most authentic sources of information, in the absence of any thing like correct information to bederived frorn his books,he ap- j pears to have in possession one thousand and two dol-1 lars of the funds of the county. We deem it scarcely ! necessary to request of our Inferior Court to have this | particular case of default legally investigated believ- 1 iug that in a case of so much importance, where the rights and interest of all are concerned, and where the amount involved is so large, that they need only be in formed of the case, to have rccou sc to every means which the laws of the land open to them, to compel the defaulting officer to a full settlement. We recom mend that the aforementioned committee be allowed a liberal compensa ion for their services, in addition to the amount already appropriated. At the close of our official duties, custom has ren dered it familiar for Grand Jurors to offer an expres sion of their leading political measures of the day, a custom advocated by some, and repudiated by others, as being without the province of a body constituted and organised partly for judicial purposes and duties, whilst we readily grant, that political feeling and pre judices should never be permitted to enter the sanctu ary of justice, to pollute that stream which should flow pure and uncontaminated from its fountain, yet whilst we are serving as Jurors, forming a component part of the judicial authority of the county, we cannot forget that we are American citizens, and that our duty to our country, unbiased and uninfluenced, we trust, by any o her consideration than a proper regard to truth and justice, under the sanction of that high obligation imposed upon us. and under which we act, that there crtn.be no satisfactory reason why. as free men jealous of our rights, though assembled for a dif ferent purpose, we may not be permitted to express our vi ws upon any matter connected with the wel fare of our country. This prerogative we beg leave, on the present, occasion, to exercise with the most tal lented and among the most virtuous of our fellow citi zens. Up to a comparative recent date, it had been a subject matter of much regret that, under our consti tution, our judicial system was so organised that there could be no common governing power. A species of chaotic confusion every where prevailed ; and this un fortunate branch of the government did not afford that high and certain security, to the persons and property of our fellow citizens, which its constitution intended | to afford, and which, m its practical npera ions in other countries, has afforded. With all the lights of experi ence before us, after this matter xvas laid before the people and their voice in favor of reform was pro claimed at the polls in 1835. a bright prospect seemed to dawn upon us. Our State Constitution was so amended as to require the Legislature to organise a supreme control'ing power, or tribunal, whose decis ions should be final and conclusive nnnn all legal ques tions which might arise in the different judicial cir cuits. The whole country looked forward with pleas ing anxiety to the beneficial results to flow from this new power. But strung” to tell, from ciuses unknown i to us, another and another session of our Legislature has passed, since this amendment of our counstitution, and the Court has not been organised. The blessings which were anticipated have been withheld by the servants of the people, and that too whilst serving under the imperative requirements of a constitution which they are sworn to support. The same uncertainty in the adrnini drafion of the laws, so long and so justly complained of. still exi-ts. and the country seems to have settled down into a forced ac quiescence. We would, therefore, reauest our Sena tor and Representatives, in the next Legislature, to use every exertion to have the Court organised in ac cordance with the plain! v expressed will of a la-ge ma jority of the people of Georgia. There is another subject, of all engrossing import ance. to which we would beg leave to call the atten tion of our fellow citizens. Whilst we profess our selves the friends of a well regulated credit system, and that, for the protection and security of the coun try, a reform is absolutely necessary, it cannot, he disguised, and will not, we nresume. he pretended, but that, under this system of hanking, the g catest frauds have been practised upon the innocent’ and unsuspect ing Those who have converted their proper?, and labor into hank paper, consoling themselves under the idea of independence, have, in a moment, had their all snatched from them ; and still, strange as it max’ scorn, those who have the controll and managein°nt of these ins'itutions are scarcely held responsible for their nets at the bar of public opinion ; no measures are taken to force a compliance with their obligations, and to do justice to the bill holders : and when the. attemnt has been made, it has proved a mere abortion. We feel justified in saying, that a system capable of being thus used calls loudly for Legislative reformation, and that justice to the country imperiously demands it. We shall not attempt to point out the means bv which this most desirable object, is to be accomplished. Wo leave that to the wisdom and patrotism of our Legis lure. In this country the will of the people must he obeyed, and it is the duty of every good citizen to turn his attention as much to the abuses as to the blessings of legislation, in order that his voice may be heard in behalf of the cause of truth and justice. The Grand Jury have witnessed, with n’ensur**. the pmmp'ness. energy and ability with which his Honor j Judge Sturges. has discharged the laborious duties of; his station during the present term of our Court. ; and o the. Solicitor. Henry L. Benning. we re'urn our sincere thanks, for his prompt discharge of rlufv. and his gentlemanly deportment towards this body, while in the discharge of their offi da! duties.

This contemplated village is situated on the main road from Girard to West Point, about midway be tween the two points, it. is in a high and healthy country, abounding with fine springs and rivulets of the purest kind. The contiguous country is of the most fertile soil, lotded with a heavy growth of excel lent timber for building, and very convenient to two valuable Saw Mills now in successful operation ; so that any hill of lumber may be furnished at the short est notice. We think we hazard nothing when we say, that am gentlemen who may wish to retire from a city or old settled country, for health, pleasure, &e., could not he disappointed should they settle at this site; and as a place of business, either of a Mercan tile or Mechanical nature, we know not why it should be surpassed by any settlement in the up country.
