Lola Montes has been playing at the
Victoria theatre, Ballarat, Australia.—
A fracas had- taken place between her
and Mr. H. Seekamp, of the Ballarat
Tunes. It appears that a writer in the
Times bad made some remarks reflect
ing on the character of Lola, and a few
evenings afterwards Mr. Seekamp called
at the United States Hotel, where she
was residing. Lola rushed on him with
a riding whip, and he retaliated with a
cane. A general row ensued, in which
the preservers and revolvers were drawn.
When separated, it was found that the
belligerents had fast hold of each other
by the hair. At the theatre, the next
■evening, she appeared beforo the curtain,
and stated that she had offered to fight
the unlucky editor with pistols, but he
had declined.
Thr Brooks’ Affair.—Washing
don, June 2.—Mr. Brooks has addressed
a letter of apology to the- Senate, dis
claiming any purpose to infract its priv
ileges, or offend its dignity.
The House committee has reported a
resolution to expel Brooks and censur
ing Keitt and Edmondson, for not inter
fering when they knew of Brook's de
sign.
Mr. Cobb, of Georgia, presented a
minority report, denying that any breach
of privilege undbr the Constitution had
been committed.
A Great Cowntr.—lt has long been
« fixed fact that, the United States is a
“ great country,” but unless a person
takes the trouble to “look into the mat
ter,” he cannot inform himself as to the
ratio of our progress in ’wealth and
prosperity. The Cincinnati Gazette in
the following paragraph, shows tho rap
id strides we are making towards the
“ supremacy of the seas
In tho last ten years then, the num
ber of vessels built increased 100 |>er
cent, and tonnage 300 per cent. The
nverage tonnage of each vessel, in 1845,
was 146 ton ; but tho average tonnage
in 1855 was 291 tons. This itself
marks a great difference in shijebuild
ing. It shows what an advance in the
magnitude of vessel* has been biought
about by the introduction of the great
packet lines, the ocean steamers, and
the rjver steam packets. This advance
in magnitude marks likewise the great
improvement in tne accommodations of
vessels and the facilities for commerce.
Not UstVise or Untmte.—Hiram
Fuller says; “There is no such thing as
absolute freedom below the Almighty
God. 1 The Omnipotent alone is free; all
his creatures are the subjects of irrevoca

sity.”

DIED, in Eatonton, of consumption, on the
•Ith of May, Aurelius A. Walton, being in the
twenty-fourth year of bis age. The subject of
•the aborc notice had been married only a few
Tears, and with flattering hopes and prospects of
* happy life, has been cut off by the “ insatiate
archer” in the early bloom of manhood. Asa
eon, he was ever dutiful; as a husband and
brother, kind and affectionate; as a master, hu
mane, and us a Christian, consistent. Beloved in
life, thou art not forgotten in death ; and while
the affections of that beloved old mother tvreath
• ed the cypress over the headstone of her darling
. son, he is embalmed in the heart of an affeetion
. ate wife and a wide circle of friends, and receiv
ing a more enduring crown at the hand of his
• God. Since he united himself with the Antioch
• church, it seemed that he had lived but to illus
trate end adorn the virtues of humble piety, and
the calm peace which he manifested amid the
agonies of death. Fare tbee-well, Aurelius!
Fare-thee-well, old class-mate! May our last
days, like thine, be our best days, having obtained
that hope and love which enables thee to breathe
in tireless joy the harmony of eternal song
for it is that radicncc which sheds a soft lustre
•over thy angel form, and beams forth the eternal
majesty of God.
“ Green be the turf over thee,
Friend of my youthful days;
Jtonc saw thee but to love thee—
Jtone named thee but to praise."

DIED, at her home in Putnam county, where
she had resided, nearly fifty years, on the Oth
•ult., Mrs. Sabah Hlbt, widow of Charles S.
Hurt, aged not quite seventy years. The world
bestows its fulsome eulogies on departed war
riors and politicians, but heeds not the fitll of the
humble and unpretending good. It is only to
those whose good fortune it was to have known
familiarly and well this excellent woman that
this notice i* addressed. In all the domestic
virtues, she was a model to be studied; as a
member of society, she faithfully and liberally
performed her port. But high above these ster
ling characteristics, there beamed tranquility, as
the guiding star of her long and blameless life—
the pure and serene light of Christianity. She
survived her husband upwards of nine years—
cheered amidst life’s trials with the constant
hope of their ultimate meeting in heaven. Never
was man more blessed with a wife, and never was
man more deserving. * * * *
DEPARTED this life, at the residence of her
son, Dr. Horace T. Shaw, Newton county, on the
3d inst., Mrs. Elizabeth Shaw, aged elghty.two
years. She has been a member of the Methodist
Episcopal Church about fifty years. She left
this world at peace with all pankind, and in full
assurance es a blessed nmncrtelity.
Dismissal of Crampton. —The New
York Herald thinks that the dismissal of
Craropton for violating our neutrality
laws, while troops are being raised daily
in this country for the aid of Walker,
and without notice from this Govern
ment, will be looked upon as the settled
purpose of the United States to rigidly
enforce our statutes towards England
and other Eurojiean States, and at the
same time to open the flood gates of
population towards Central America. It
will be regarded as a defiance of En>r
land in every matter of dispute between
the two Governments. A disavowal of
all unfriendly designs and of all inten
tion to disturb the peaceful relations
subsisting between the two Cabinets
will be received as an aggravation of the
offence, and the prompt dismissal of Mr.
Dallas and the suspension of diplomatic
relations are likely to follow.

nr Cured by Oxygenated Bittkrb.
—A Cate of Eighteen Years' Standing. —From
FUxhenry Homer, Esq., of Button, J fast*. :
Boston, September 28.
Dkar Sir—lt is now eighteen years since I
was first troubled with the water-brash and de
rangement of the stomach. I hare taken advice
of the best physicians in this city and New York,
in London, Paris, Germany and Italy, and visited
the several sulphur and other springs iu this
country, the watering places of Germany and
elsewhere in Europe, and had found no relief.
Since taking the Bitters, I have never had a re
turn of the water brash, which daily' troubled me
of late years to a very great degree. Having
found so great relief from this most discouraging
disorder, I have recommended a trial of your
medicine to many of my friends, who are now
using it to great udvnutagc. What little is in
my scope to oiler in extending the circulation ol
your Oxygenated Bitters, will be done with
grateful pleasure at ull times.
Yours very respectfully,
Fitzbknry Homsr.

isr Holloway's Ointment ami Pills,
certain Cure for Wounds and Ulcers.—Tliomsf
Thompson, of Batavia, New' Yolk, was afflicted
all over his body with running ulcers, his life at
last became quite a burden to him, as he was a
misery to himself, and an annoyance to hi»-
friends. In the hope of obtaining relief to his
sufferings, he consulted several physicians and
surgeons, but his case seemed so desperate that
it was considered hopeless. At this singe he had
recourse to Holloway’s Ointment and Pills, and
by persevering with these remedies for ton weeks,
he was completely cured, and now enjoys the
best of health.

faror of Day's Magical Cleanser, from Gen.
John H. Rice, of the firm of Hooper & Rice,
Attomejf, Cassville, Ga.:
Cassville, On., May 28 th, 1856.
Mr. A. C. Dat.—Deae Sie—lt is with pleasure
that I testily to the character and value of Dat'd
Magical Cleanser, after haring used it for some
sit or seven years. In the year 1850,1 was har
ing a house built, and by accident, a small bucket
of ivory black was turned over upon anew laid
floor of my house, which when wiped up, left a
black spot as large as the bottom of a half bushel.
After rubbing this spot with strong soap suds, I
poured on it about three ounces of your M.-.gical
Cleanser, and rubbed it oTer the spot well with
a cloth, for some five minutes, which removed
entirely all stain of the black from the floor.
I have frequently applied it to grease spots on
clothing, and hare no hesitancy in saying that it
is far superior to anything if the kind I hare ever
seen used. It removes the spots or stains wiih
out the slightest injury to the color or texture of
the goods, is easily applied, and requires hut a
few moments to perform its work.
Kespocttully yours,
