That persons, during the raging of a pestil ence anti the hurry of burials, have sometimes been buried alive, there is very little doubt. We have nut, however, heard oi any well attested case of this kind, since the commencement of the present epidemic in ©ur city : and the story we are about to relate, avouches lor no more than the cotlining of a man, who, as will appear in the sequel, could not be persuaded that he was a pro per subject for burial. In the course of the disease, it has sometimes occurred, that a man, being found dead-drunk in the street, has been mistaken for a cholera pa tient, lifted upon a litter, and carried olfto one of the Hospitals. It has been customary, in these cases, for the Medical attendants, on ascertain ing the mistake, to order the drunken man to he laid in a room, used for that purpose, until he shall have slept off the fumes of liquor, and then dismiss him to take care of himself. Two or three weeks since, a patient of this description was one evening brought to the I lospitai, supposed to be in the last stage of chol era asphyxia. Certain it is, that lie was prodigi ously blur. The doctor examined him, shook his head, and ordered him to the drunkard’s room. Besides this apartment for those who were merely dead-drunk, there was another, wherein it was customary to lay such as had actually died during the night; from whence they were to be carried away and buried the next morning. It so happened that the above mentioned patient was, by mistake, conveyed to the dead-room, instead of the drunkard's. There he lay, unconscious of his situation, either personal or local, until the morning; when the burial cart came, and two Hibernians pro ceeded to the dead-room to take away the corpses. They found no other hut the drunken t»an, who being still fast locked in the arms of sleep, they forthwith proceeded to coffin, and to nail up. They laid him in his narrow house, eV began to drive the nails, when the noise awoke him. He started up, thrust off the lid, and asked them what the d 1 they were about! “We’re a goin to bury ye, sure,” said one of the I liberninns, endeavouring to make the man lie down again, and ho darent/y nailed up. “To bury me! ' exclaimed the astonished drunkard. “Ay, sure,” returned the Irishman, coolly; “ it’s we that buries all that dies of the chol era.” “But I’m not dead !” said the patient. “Not dead!” exclaimed the Irishman; “ nint that a pretty extravagant assertion now for a corpse to make ! Not dead ! And sure you can’t be in your right mind to say so. Lome, lie down, if ye plase, and we 11 nail ye up and bury ye dacentlr.” “ Dacentfy /” “Av, sure, asdaccntlyas the times will admit of. It isn't ivery man now, that can git a coffin, like yourself, to be buried up in. “But 1 tell you, I'm not dead !” persisted the drunken man, struggling to get out of the coffin. “Not dead agin !” exclaimed the Hibernian, endeavouring to keep him in; “ that assariion won't do here. V\ e fetched you out ol the dead room, where they put all the corpses’; and it so be, you aint dead, there s no confidence at all to be placed in doctor's stuff. “ Hare 1 been under the hands ot the doctor then ?” “Aint that a pretty question now for a dead man to ax ?” “D it ? 1 tell you, I'm not dead.” “Who knows better nor the doctor? Come, Jemmy, (addressing his brother Irishman,) you hould him down, w hile 1 nail him up. W e can t be bothered here all day, no how." As the coffined man saw there was no such thing as reasoning these honest officials out ot their duty, and that he must resort to main force to save himself, he made one desperate effort, shook off' the dead cartmen, sprang from the coffin, and toak to his heels. [A. 5. Const cl. Galvanism. —“ The spectacle was truly hor rific. When I entered the room where the ex periments were to take place, the body ol a man named Carter, which had been cut down from the gallows scarce halt an hour, was h ing on the table; and the cap being removed, his frightful features, distorted with the agonies ol suffocation, were visible. The crime he had been hanged for was murder; and a brawny, desperate ruffian he looked! None ol his clothes were removed. He wore a fustian Jacket, and drab knee breechees. “The first time that the galvanic shock was conveyed to him will never, I dare say, bo for gotten by any one present. We all shrunk from the table in consternation, with the mo mentary belief that we had positively brought the man back to life; for he suddenly sprung op into a sitting posture —his arms waved wild- ly—the colour rushed into his cheeks—his lips were drawn apart, so as to show his teeth —and his eyes glared at us with apparent fury. One young man, a medical student, shrieked violent ly, and was carried out in a swoon. One gen tleman present, who happened to be nearest to the upper part of the body, was almost knocked down with the violent blow he received from the left arm. It was some time before any of us could recover presence of mind sufficient to proceed with the experiments.” —Diary of a Physician. THE BLIND PREACHER. BY WILLIAM WIRT. It was on Sunday us 1 travelled through Orange, that my eyes were caught by a cluster ol’horses tied near an old ruinous house in the forest, not far from the road side. Having fre quently seen such objects before, in travelling through these states, 1 had no difficulty in un derstanding that it was a place of religious worship. Devotion alone should have stopped me to join the duties of the congregation, but I must confess, that curiosity to hear what the preach er in such a wilderness could say, was not the least of my motives. On entering I was struck with his preternatural appearance. He was a tall and spare old rutin ; h s head was cover ed with a linen cap, his shrivelled hands, and his feeble voice, were all shaking under the in fluence of palsy, and in a few moments 1 ascer tained that he was blind. The first emotions which touched the breast, were those of pity and veneration. Rut ah ! sa cred God ! how soon were all my feelings changed ! the lips of Plato were never more worthy of a prognostic swarm of bees, than were the lips of this holy man ! It was the day of the administration of the sacrament; and his subject of course was the passion of our Saviour.—l had heard the subject handled a thousand times. 1 had thought it exhausted long ago. Little did 1 suppose in the wild woods of America, 1 was to meet a man whose elo quence would give this topic a new and more sublime pathos, than 1 had ever before wit nessed. As he descended from the pulpit to distri bute the mystic symbols, there was a peculiar, a more than human solemnity in his air and manner, which made my bluxl run cold, and frame shiver. He then drew a picture of the suffering of our Saviour, his trial before Pilate, his assent up Calvary; his Crucifixion ; and his Death. 1 knew the whole history, but never until then, had J heard the circumstances so selected, so arranged, so colored; it was all new ; and 1 seemed to have heard it for the first time in my life. His voice trembled on every syllable; every heart in the assembly beat in unison. 1 lis peculiar phrase had that force of description that the original scene appeared to be acting at the moment before our eyes. We saw the faces of the Jews ; the staring, frightening distortions of malice and rage, with a flame of indignation ; and my hands involuntarily clenched. But when he came to touch on the patience, the forgiving meekness of our Saviour; when he drew to the iife, his blessed eyes streaming to heaven, his voice breathing to God, a soft and gentle prayer of pardon for his enemies— ‘ Father forgive them, for they know not what thev do;’ the voice of the preacher had all along faukered,and grew fainter and fainter, until his utterance being entirely obstructed by the force of his feelings, he raised his handkerchief to his eves and burst into a loud and irresistible flood of grief. The effect is inconceivable. The whole house resounded with mingled groans and sobs, and shrieks of the congregation. It was a longtime before lue tumult had sub sided, so far as to permit him to proceed. In deed, judging by the usual fallacious standard of my own weakness, 1 began to be very uneasy for the situation of the preacher, for 1 could not conceive how ho would be able to let his audience down from the height to which he had wound them, without impairing the dignity of the subject, or perhaps shocking them by the abruptness of the fall. But no —the descent was as beautiful and sublime as the salvation had been rapid and enthusiastic. The first sentence with which he broke the silence was a quotation from Rousseau, ‘ Socra tes died like a philosopher, but Jesus Christ like a God!’ 1 despair giving you any idea of the effect pro duced by this short sentence, unless you could perfectly perceive the whole manner of the man, as well as the peculiar crisis of the discourse. Never before did 1 understand what Demos thenes meant by laying such stress on delivery. You are to bring before you the venerated figure of the preacher; his blindness constantly recall ing to vour recollection old Homer, Ossian, and Milton] and associating with his performance, the melancholy grandeur of theirgenius; you are to imagine that you hear his slow, solemn, and well accented enunciation- and his voice affect ing melody; you are to remember the pitch of passion and enthusiasm to which the congrega tion were raised, and the lew minutes of portent ous, death-like silence which reigned through the house. The preacher removed the white handkerchief from his face, wet even yet with the recent torrent of tears, and slowly stretching forth the placid hand which holds it, and begins the sentence —‘Socrates died like a philosopher —then pausing, raising his other hand, pressing them both clasped together, with warmth and energy to his breast, lifting his sightless balls to Heaven, and pouring his whole soul into his tremulous voice—‘but Jesus Christ—like a God? If he indeed had been an angel ot light, the ef fect could scarcely have been more divine. Whatever 1 had been able to conceive of the sublimity of Massillon or the lorce of Bourdaloue, had fallen far short of the power which rushed in a hurricane upon my brain, and in the vio lence and agony of my feelings, had held my whole system in suspense, now ran back into mv heart with a sensation which 1 cannot de scribe; a kind of shuddering, delicious horror! the paroxism of blended piety and indignation, to which 1 had been transported, subsided into a deep self-abasement, humility and adoration. 1 had just been lacerated and dissolved by sym pathy, for our Saviour as a fellow creature; but now with fear and trembling, 1 adored him as— ‘a God. i SAVANNAH 1 JOC K1 CLIB RACES, ■ i - _ I 11 Over the Bunadcenture C.urse, four miles dislant from this city.

PROPOSALS FOR ENLARGING AND IMPROVING TUB SOUTHERN BANNER, .4 Paper note published Weekly in Athens, Geo. F OIHE rapid increase of population, wealth and Intel- S. ligence of Western Georgia, have prompted the Editors of the “ Southern Banner,” in order to keep pace with the improvement of the times—to lay befo'rfi their friends and patrons, the following proposals ’. They intend about the first of February next, to priblisH , the “ Banner” on a large imperial sheet—not inferior ill size or style of execution, to any now published in the State—lor the accomplishment of which purpose, they I have ordered from New-York an entire new set of mate rials. The Editors deem it unnecessary at this late td enter into a minute detail of their political creed—they would deem it but a work of supererogation. Suffice if , to say, their best efforts will always be directed (by dis , seminating correct principles, religious, moral and , political) to the advancement of the interest; honor and, happiness of the people—particularly that portion of them comprising the Western and .North Western sec tion of the State; and to whom they mainly look for pat ronage and support. The patronage of the Banner is now respectable, but not sufficient .to meet the increase of expenditure thaf must necessarily occur, in effecting the contemplated.
