Dreadful ComtUiiin of (lit- Wliltea la San Uoiulngo. Dispatches have been received from San Domingo which will, says the Wash ington States, undoubtedly confirm all that wo have stated heretofore of the critical condition of Americans and of j the whites as a race in that doomed island. The negro leader, lines, is shut up in the walled city of San Domingo, where ho veuts his ferocity outlie white citizens, whom he retains umid tho horrors of siege and famine, in some sort, us hostages for his own filial escape. Mr. Elliot, the American cousul, and his lady. Dona Merced de la Roche, (the daughter of one of the noblest old white families of the island,) are daily subject ed to base and studied insults. The United States Hag has been re peatedly dragged through the streets and trampled lipou by negro mobs : the con sul's lady hissed at in the streets, and followed borne from church with language too vile to he repeated; American seatucu and vessels have been illegally sacrificed; and, in brief, every form sef outrage that negro spite could invent has been heaped upon our citizens, for the single crime of | being white men uud Americans—and not | a ship-of-wttf shows itself for their relief. The Latest “Great Attraction” in New York. A correspondent of tho Boston Journ al, writing from New York city, says: We have anew prodigy in this city iu the person of a boy preacher, lie is about fifteen years of age. His name is Uraumond Kennedy. Ho is a Baptist, and belongs to the Church of Rev. Mr. Adams, on Christopher street, lie is a convert in the lato revival, has already been licensed to preach by that church, and is just now attracting large crowds to hear him. His style is vehement; his sermonß have iu them much method ; ho speaks wholly extemporaneously, and his system of theology seems to be mature and after the Bchool of tbe sounder and more conservative schools of the day.— He preaches and speaks nearly every night. His houses arc crowded to over* flowing, and for a season he will be the great attraction of our city. I COLUMBUS: LtIIMBST CITY CIRCULATION. Thursday Morning, April 40, IS3B. See rcudinj’ matter on every page. Frost. By a dispatch received in this city, we learn that there has been frost in North ern Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi, but it is not stated whether sufficient to do any material damage. The same dispatch reports the South ern Cotton markets firm and advancing. The religious revival in Nashville is very general and intense. The Young Men’s Christian Association there was very active in the movement. The receipts into the Treasury of the United States during Inst week amount to nearly SOOO,OOO, The amount on de posit is $7,000,000, of which $5,000,000 is subject to draft. ————- Another Duel. Wc understand that a couple of gentle men from Montgomery passed through this place on Monday last, on their way to Hamburg, to settle a dispute by the ar bitrament of villainous saltpetre. The fight was to come oft’ near Hamburg on yester day morning. Since tbe above was in type we have J seen a telegraphic dispatch to a gentle man in this city, which stnted that Qmiek cubush ((jilaokiueyer ?) and l’ollanl cx changed shots, without effect, when the matter was settled. ■ ♦ Klre In Tuskcgee. Tlie Montgomery Confederation suys : ‘•Wc regret to learn that several out houses attached to the Methodist Female College at Tuskegee, were consumed by fire on the night of the ‘ilitli inst. We did not learn the extent of the damage, nor tho origin of the fire.” —~ -♦ Mercer l)i’ lverslt.y. Wo learn frum tin’ Christian Index that the Trustees of Mercer University have elected Rev. N. M. Crawford President of that institution, and that there is a strong probability that lie will accept.— A more worthy, able or acceptable selec tion could not have been made, and the news of his acceptance, should lie accept, will he gladly received by the friends of the institution in this section. The Weather. The Atlanta intelligencer, of the 118th ; inst., says : “From heavy rains, it turu ; ed off oil Monday night clear and cold.— A heavy frost was seen on the ground yesterday morning, and a large quantity I of vegetables in this community were en tirely destroyed. Great apprehensions ! are felt as to the Wheat crop.” Another Mcnragua Expedition. A correspondent of tho St. Louis Re publican says that General Walker is | actively preparing for another expedition ugaiust Nicaragua. If Uncle Sam will ! keep his hands off of Walker should he j attempt another expedition, he will yet ! redeem that country from semi-barbarian | misrule. The Lxwa and Journals. Wo learn from the last issue of the Times, of this city, that the printing of tlie Journals of tho last Session have been completed uud delivered, and that the ! printing of the Laws lias been completed, J and that tlie Index only is wanting to put them into tiie bauds of tho binders. Not having seen tiie work, of course we are unprepared to speak of its mechani cal execution. Benton’s Thirty Years’ View is suid to have already attained tlie sale of seventy thousand volumes ! The publishers, (Messrs. Appleton,) are about to issue a new edition, with a copious analytical in dex, and an autobiographical memoir of Uol. Benton, written within three mouths of his death. This will much enhance the interest of the work. —■ - - liit't'iiiUurUin In Selmu. We learn from the Selma Sentinel that anew dwelling house, belonging to Mr. | Hugh Ferguson, was burnt to the ground on Sunday night last, under smell circuin , stances as to leave no doubt that it was 1 the work of ail incendiary. Most of Mr. i Ferguson's furniture was fortunately saved. Another attempt has since been made to fire another building in the same ! city, hut fortunately tlie plot was discov- I ered in time to prevent it. llunkrupt Law. It is stated that Mr. Toombs has nearly completed the draught of his bill for tv bankrupt law, uud that it will bo reported to the Senate iu a few days, it is also said that General Ward is drawing a bill for the same purpose. Unless they are | more just and equitable than the old bankrupt law, under which so much ras cality was practised, we hope the Senate will liavo the good sense uud honesty to lay it, not on the table, but iu tlie grate. .. ^ — What the Mormon* will Do. iu a letter from U. 11. Basset, dated Salt Lake t’lty, Feb, 1, to a relative in Michigan, uud published iu tlie Detroit Advertiser, wo find tlie following : “1 have not space in a short letter to say much about our prospects and de termination Wo have resolved, and every baud has been raised to heaven to sanction tlie rcsulutiou, that if wc urc closely pressed by our foes, we will burn our habitations and fences, and cut down every tree in the valley and lay waste our fields, and our enemies shall have the satisfaction of gazing on a scene of blackened desolation ; while we with our families shall retire to the mouutuiu l'ast uesses where dragoons cannot possibly follow. There are recesses iu the Rocky Mountains so impregnable by nature that they can be as easily defended ns were the Straits of Thermopylae. Indeed 1 have penetrated mountain gorge*, where a mountain goat could hardly follow.— Herewith a low years’ provisionson hand, we shall be secure from the reach of armies, and when the Government has spent ten times the sum of tbe cost of the Florida war, they will be glad to j abandon their now favorite scheme of cx- . terminating the Mormons. | lteport of *b< Committees of Con tui-euce. We publish to-day the bill lor the ad mission of Knnsas into the Union, as re ported to the two houses of Congress on Friday lust, by the Committee of Confer ence, appointed by the different houses to confer upon this measure and report thereon. This bill, it will be seen, differs very materially from tbe one reported to the New York Tribune and published by us a few days since, us this bill only refers the Land Ordinance adopted with the Constitution, and sent up to Con gress with it, to the people as altered by Congress, and not tlie entire Constitu tion, as reported by tho Tribune. Notwithstanding this bill receives the I sanction of the Southern members, with i the exception of six, and the unqualified con Jcnination of the Black Republicans, i yet it appears to us a complete surrender j of the whole question by the South, as it does not effect any settlement of the ques | tion whatever, but on the contrary opens the field still wider, for agitation. It is truo that it only refers the land ordi nance portion of the bill, as proposed by Congress, to the people for their rati fication, but with such conditions that it amounts to the same tiling as if the whole Constitution was referred, for it provides that if the proposition of Con gress is rejected in relation to the land ordinance, the people of Kansas shall, when its population will entitle them to a Representative in Congress, form another Constitution, and it shall be admitted into the Union with or without slavery as the people may determine. Who for a mo ment doubts the result There is no question that tlie anti slavery population of Kansas largely pre dominates over the slavery portion, and in order to get tlie opportunity of forming another constitution they will, of course, voto against the proposition of Congress, and then tlie whole matter will go back to Iho people, and an anti slavery consti tution will be adopted and Kansas will be admitted under it. as soon as she lias a population sufficient to entitle her to a Representative in Congress. This may be several years, but in tlie meantime the agitation will be kept up on the shivery question, and the South, will be compelled to submit to some other indignity in tlie vain hope of quieting the matter. But it is useless for us to inveigh against those who surrender our rights whenever they are asked to do so ; tlie people acquiesce in it, and throw up their caps and shout bravo ! whenever a compromise is made, however degrading to us it may be. We are beginning to be prepared for any in dignity, as we have long since despaired of getting our rights in the Uniou. As for this bill, we view it as a surrender of every principle for which we have been contending, and as the death blow to all hopes of Kansas, or any other State ever being admitted into the Union with a pro slavery constitution. BY TELEGRAPH AND MAIL. Telegraphed to the Augusta press. Arrival of tlie Moses Taylor. New Youk, April 27.—The steamship Moses Taylor, from Aspinwall has ar rived, which port she left on the I‘Jtli inst. She brings nearly one and a half millions in specie and five hundred pas sengers. The news from California is unimpor. taut. Dates fro n Valparaiso to the 18th March have been received. Vivanco had been defeated at Arequipa after great slaughter, and had fled to Bolivia. 1 ■ - • —— Later from Havana. The steamer Cahawba arrived at New Orleans on tlie 2(lth. The Cahawba brings no special news from Havana. The report that tlie new Ministry had based their existence upon tlie abolition of slavery in all the Spanish colonies had caused intense excitement among the moneyed men of Cuba. The sugar market was quito dull, but the prices had not generally changed, although a few sales had been made at lower rates. Stock ou band in Havana is 168,000 boxes; at Matanzas, 54,000 boxes. Exchange on London is quoted at 12 to 11.1 prem.; New Y’ork and Boston par at 1 per cent, prem.; New Orleans 2to !1 per cent, prem.; U. S. coin 2 per cent, prem. The health of Havana is reported to be good. Thecustoms of tlie Island for the month of February last produced $042,006, against $845,827 during tho correspond ing mouth of 1857. The internal dues produced $500,721, against $438,806 in February, 1857. Intelligence from Porto Rico to the fid instant, reports the health of tlie Island excellent, and crop prospects satisfactory. Arrivals at Havana from this port: 14th steamship Black Warrior, Smith; 15th, Am. schooner Julia Maine, Norton. Sailed from Havana for this port: 9tb, Am. brig A. A. Chapman, Laury; 12th, ship Bernard, Carney ; brig Brownsville, Simpson ; 10th, schooner Christopher Pendleton, Royer; 17th, Eng. ship Earl of Egliugtown, Lawton.

Numerous cases of Dyspepsy, of the most aggravated character, which were j abandoned as incurable by some of the Medical Faculty, have, by the use of this Kliktr, been re stored to perfect health, as attested certificates testify.

Apiil 26, l&58-0t Hair Restorative.—Every one will, we i think, agree with us in the opinion that the human j hair is the greatest natural ornament that is pos j sessed either by a gentleman or a lady. Just meet an apparently good looking man, for instance, in ; the street; you admire his features, whiskers ami ! general bearing; butlo! he lifts his hat in recog nition of your bow, and the charm has vanished, for lehabod is wiitteu on his bald head, and the glory has departed with the flowing locks that once flourished luxuriantly there. In the case of ! a lady, the matter is, if possible, worse—such cases reminding one of the circumstance on which the following epigram is founded: “O! give me, fair Emma, a lock of your hair,” A bashful young lover took courage and sighed : “"J’wa* a sin to refuse such a modest request— So take the whole wig” tlie dear creature replied. Now, to prevent such a catastrophe, is within the power of every lady’ and gentleman; fur by using Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative, hair is not only prevented from tailing off or turning gray, but the article will restore hair to bald places, and oven if it has changed color and become gray, it will bring it back to its pristine beauty and luxu riance Those who are acquainted with the anato my, physiology and pathology of the hair, must be well aware that certain substances have specific action upon it aud it is by a judicious combination of these that Prof. Wood has succeeded in com pounding a mixture possessed of remarkable vir tues. — Waverly Magazine and Literary Gazette.

April 24-2 w Friends of Humanity.—To you (always disposed to aid the suffering) it may appear in credible, after \u i ain trying all the “wonderful” medicines of the day, that one application exter nally, and a few drops taken internally, of my (genuine) “ Electric Oil,” will very suddenly relieve the suffcier from the most violent pains; yet it, is a fact, as testified to by good men and good women, whose names are at my office. Not any have used it without deriving some special benefit within an hour, and many are they who have been perfectly cured of Rheuma tism, Neuralgia, Spinal and Bronchial Complaints, Croup, Tic Doloreux, Felons, Cramps, Bruises and Sprains, Piles, Cuts and Wounds, Swelled Glands and Stiff Joints, Scrofula and Erysipelas, Sore Nip ples and Swelled Breast, Salt Rheum and Cankers in the Mouth or Stomach, Eruptions, and all kinds of Sores, (Headache and Toothache in five to ten minutes;) also, Chilblains and Sore or Tender feet. It will be seen that I do not profess to cure every thing, but only a certain class of complaints; all of which are curable on simple Electric and Chemi cal principles, tliiough the affinities of my “ Elec tric Oil,” and the Nervo-vital Fluid of the human body. The modus opetaadi of progressing and ever changeable Blu uniatic pain, is imperfectly under stood by mankind, whether its location is the membrane or covering of tho nerves, inflamed by derangement, (like the coating of an inflamed stomach,) or some disturbance of the electric fluid itself; certain it is that my “Electric Oil” is readi ly absorbed into, if it does not actually supply a needed deficiency in, and equalizes the circulation of that groat principle of human organization. Let tho skeptical and the humane look into this matter —for if these are so, all uro alike interested. 1 will take any case from the hospital to test it for all. My “Electric Oil” is pleasant and innocent; no danger of cold or re-action,” as all will bear me witness. Prof. CIIAS. DeGKATII. Price 50 cents and $1 per bottle. For sale in Columbus, Cia., by D.
