Dear Judge :-Hving n idle hour |i
propose to send you a few stray items picked
up during a brief sojourn at tins delightful f
watering place. * , . ~ I
The conduct of ontpnHanthroptc friend*!
at the North is beginning to have It's “Teg?(T-j
mate effect in diverting the attention of those I
seeking health and recreation, from New
port and Saratoga, to localities nearer home.
And ‘there ere few places where greater in- j
ducements are presented, cither to the inval
id or the mere pleasure seeker, than Mont
vale. ‘J
The pnre mountain air, the beauty fftnf
grandeur of the surrounding scenery are, of
themselves, sufficient to instil new life into
the enfeebled frame. Then, with such a
host as Mr. Lanier, you may be certain noth
ing is licking that can promote the comfort
or increase the pleasures of his guests. Am
ple provision has been made for amusement
and exercise—those essentials to good health
—Lin the way ot swings, ten-pins, billiards,
&.c.; nttlif which are largely patronised by
the ladies'. „
The more robust will be amply compensa
ted on reaching the summit of Mount Cliil
howee, at whose very base the springs arc
situated. A scope of country, embracing
several hundred square miles, is spread, like
a map, before you. On a clear day, Knox
ville, the metropolis of East-Tennessee, is
distinctly seen, thongtrTwenty-fivc miles dis
tant. The view, in different directions, em
braces portions of no less than five or six
States. The elevation on which you stand
—so far above the valley beneath—where
all is solemnly still, save the humming of the
insect or the gentle tinkling of some distant
cow-hell, has, itself, an ennobling and humil
iating tendency. Here, if any where, in
the very prescnco of sublimity itself, man
must feel his insignificance.
At night a fine band, with its dance-provo
king notes, speedily collects a gay throng,
whose graceful movements are, themselves, a
pleasure, even to old outsiders like me.
I cannot, however, refrain from criticising
the costume of one or two ladies, whose mau
tnamakers must certainly have been guilty of
cabbaging (unless that prerogative belongs
only to tailors) the material of which their
dresses were composed. They were decided
ly too short at the top. You know, Judge,
I seldom blush, but then-, how could I help
it? 80 fair an opportunity for the study (if
“comparative nnatotny” 1 never had before,
unless it was when I was very young. The
old verse, “ Beauty when unadorned,” &c.,
may he very true; blit surely the poet did
not mean une/ad. The only apology I hav e
heard advanced for this so lavish display—
and 1 do not quite get the hang of it—is,
that the ladies wished simply to show that
they are not in the cotton interest, and that
its rise and fall have nothing to do with the
palpitations of their bosoms.
I may be somewhat singular in my tastes,
but I would much rather the ladies (bless
them) would veil their charms—probably for
the saute reason which it is said you are in
the habit of giving, Judge, for the ‘ well
known complacency with which yon eye the
expanded crinoline-—because it “affords
wider range, for the imagination.
I have not been enable to obtain the analy
sis of the principal spring at Mont vale; but
whatever may he.its ingredients, its curative
properties are indisputable—particularly in
chronic Liver Complaint, Nervous Affections,
Chills and Fever, Dyspepsia, Scrofula, Drop- ,
sy, chronic Diarrhea, &.C.
The spring is inclosed in a square box of
marble slabs and covered by a very neat
temple. Besides the main sp'ing, there are!
others whose waters are purely chalybeate, j
and also sulphurous.
I am told there is still another spring i
which is visited only by gentlemen, ami j
which differs essentially from all the others. |
It is located in ojje of the ..lower rooms of!
the main building, and it is dealt nut to visit
ors at a dime a glass. The water is said N>
be highly exhilerating, but at the same. time,
must be extremely nauseous, as the taste, has
to be disguised by the addition of sugar, lem
onjuice, nutmeg, mint, &c. Some, however,
become so habituated to its use as to be able
to drink it “■straight,” or rather pure, without
the least contortion of countenance.
Its effects are. as surprising ss they are
various. It inclines some to be garrulous and
in uncommonly good humor; while others,
under its influence, become silent, and often
times captious. Some are disposed to curse
and others to fight. After one has imbibed
a sufficient quantity, be becomes unable to :
stand, falls into the nearest chair, looks
around with a vacant countenance, mumbles
unintelligible words, and in attempting to
rise usually falls to the floor, shuts his eyes
and—snores.
The beneficial effects from the use of these
last mentioned waters, I have, as yet, been
unable to learn.
With much regret, Tshall to-morrow leave
this delightful spot, for a visit to Lookout
Mountain, from whence, should I encounter
anything of interest, I may address
you again. Yours, N. R.
BRITISH OPERATIONS IN AFRICA
We have heretofore had occasion to al
lude to the British enterprise of raising cot
ton in Africa, and Dr. Livingstone’s mission
in this connection. The English manufac
turers and politicians are calculating strong
ly on a large augmentation of the supply of
cotton from this source. The following is an
extract from a speech on this subject recent
ly delivered by Mr. Buxton in tho British
Parliament: _
“It had been demonstrated that the forty
millions of negroes in West Africa weie an
industrious race of men, and eageily devo
ted to trade, while the wealth of those regions
in the things that Europe ueeded was bound
less. Palm-oil, corn, timber of valuable
kinds, jvory, gold, gropnd-nqts, indigo, pep
per, rice, coffee, sugar, and a multitude of
other articles, were only waiting a market to
be produced in any quantities. The trade
in palm-oil was already valued at 2,000,000.
(“No, no!”) lie spoke of tbe borne trade.
But the most important prospect was that of
the supply of cotton. (Hear.) These vj|
no question now that any required a mom'T
of cotton, equal to that of New Orleans in
quality, might be obtained. Avery short
time ago Mr. Clegg, of Manchester, aided
by the Rev. H. Venn and a few other gen
tlemen, trained and sent out two or three
young negroes as agents to Abbeokutla.—
These young men taught the natives to col
lect their cotton, and sent it home to England.
The result was that tbe natives bad actual
ly purchased 250 cotton gins for cleaning
tbeir cotton, and lately tbe natives of Ah •
beokutta bad sect to England and procured
four presses for pressing it lor exportation,
“at a cost of several hundred pounds. Mr.
; Clegg stated that he was In correspondence
with seventy-six native and other African
j traders, twentyrtwo of them being chiefs.—
J Wub ono of them ML’Clegg W*'(mum*
ytie# by which he (the African) received
.£2500. And the amount of cotton received
at Manchester jiad risen hand over hnnd, till
! it came to 5,0001 b, and last year to nearly
| 100,0001 b. Well may Mr. Clegg say this
1 was “ a rare instance of tbe rapid develop
ment of a particular trade, and the more so
because every ounce of cotton bad been col
loid, all riie labor performed, and the re
sponsibility borne by native Africans alone.”
This is undoubtedly a report of considera
ble progress, and if we look alouo into tbe
account, the facts and figures above stated,
it would appear that the Southern States
were soon to encounter a.formidable rival in
Africa; thut Great Britain, having cut off
our supply of laborers, had found a means of
couverting the African on his own soil into
an agency working out the prostration of
Southern industry and the dowufall of Sou
theru institutions. But so long as Great
Britain expects to accomplish this great re
sult by voluntary ifrican labor, we are con
vinced that she will meet with disappoint
ment. The African will not labor, with the
industry aud perseverance requisite to the
production of cheap cotton, without compul
sion. The inquiry most important to us is,
will Great Britain resort to compulsion ?—in
other words, will she make slaves of the Af
ricans on their own soil ? for compulsion will
amount to this. We have no doubt whatev
er that to this measure she will resort at last.
All her history justifies this anticipation; and
her present mode of dealing with the Chi
nese coolies and the negroes rescued by her
vessels from tile slavers reveals the method
of tbe mock philanthropy and necessity un
der which it will be cloaked. Her attention
having now been earnestly directed to Afri
ca, we need nut donbt for a moment her use
of any means necessary to accomplish the
prime object winch lias attracted it to that
quarter.— Columbus Enquirer.
Runaway Negro Drowned.
We learn that on Saturday last a runa
way negro, finding himself about to be cap
tured by two of our citizens, inade_for the
river, and in attempting to swim across, styik
and drowned within about fifteen yards--of
the opposite bank. Tuesday lie was discov
ered about four miles below this city, and
about two miles below where the scene oc
curred. An inquest was held over the body
yesterday, and the verdict was, that lie came
to death in accordance with the above. No
marks of violence..were to be seen. He is
represented as being a stout negro, of copper
color, bushy hair, aud weighing about 165 or
170 pounds.
It is supposed by some to be the boy ad
vertised in this paper by Judge A. E. Coch
ran, of Brunswick, Georgia. —Albany Patri

Railroad to bo Built.
The Committee appointed to negotiate
with the Directory of the Pensacola & Geor
gia Railroad Company, for the construction
of tho road to Quincy, have performed the
duty alloted to them, and’ will report to a
meeting of the subscribers at the Court
House, to day. The subscription made by
our citizens has been accepted, and the work
will he let out to contract at the earliest pos
sible period. So now the matter is definife
ily settled. Wo are to have a Railroad—an
iron-horse, — and bo propelled by steam, over
our fertile hills and valleys! at the rate of—
I well, forty miles per hour.
I We suppose the committee will report,
J through the Republic, next week, the pro
j erodings had with tho Directory. —Quincy

Max Killed bv a Jlattlksnake. We
1 learn, from a reliable source, that a man by
the name of Stout,- v-ho resided in the neigh
borhood of “Wynn’s Store,” in this county,
was bitten by a rattlesnake some two weeks
ago, and died several days thereafter from
the effects of the poison.— -Pulaski Times.
Negro Bjttex bv a Rattlesnake. —
Some days since a negro man, belonging t&
Mr. 11. Dean, of Harris co., while picking
cotton, was bitten by a rattlesnake. Two
slight incisions were discernable on the out
side of his right foot. By a liberal adminis
tration of Peach Brandy, which fortunately
Mr. Dean had been distilling, the poison was
“counteracted. The negro, we are happy to
state,, is now well. Two snakes, bearing ffve
rattles each, were killed near the spot where
the negro was bitten.— Columbus Times.
Arrangements are making in New York
for a complimentary dinner to Mrs. Le Vert
and Mrs. Anna Cora Ritchie, uqw in that city.
Two hundred tickets are to be issued, one
hundred for ladies and thos remainder admit
ting gentlemen. The price of entrance will
be ten dollars, and the proceeds are to be de
voted to the Washington Monument Fund.
The Nashville Union says of the current
political contest in Illinois :
“ While we shall never cease to condemn
the course pursued by Judge Douglas in the
lasi session of Congress, and while we can
never again recognize him as a safe and reli
able statesman, we shall still rejoice at his
success in the contest which he is now wa
ging against the enemies of the South and of
the Union.” 1 ; ■ ■ ‘ 7 -
