He would also call tho particular attention of those in want of Artificial Work, to Ilia su perior style of teeth, set on gold plate ; for beauty, strength ami life-like appeaennee, they are not surpassed. Aa an impression hns been made that iny prices for dental opera tions aro higher than the usual run nf Den tists, I beg leave to sny that tlioy are thusame as charged by Dentists at Augusta, Mucon and Savannah. For Artificial Work mychar ges are as follows: Entire Sets Upper and Lower from $100 to $251 Half Sets, Upper or Lower, from 50 to 150 Temporary Sets, Upper and Lower, 25 each. Partial Sets in proportion to the above. As I am well posted in all the late improve ments of the day, l feel confident that I ran meet tho wants of all who may need tho ser vices of a Dentist, and if references aro want ed; as to their utility in answering the purpo ses of nature, I ran give them in nluindanee, from those who have tested my skill, for the Inst fourteen years, in this, and adjoining States.

Mr. Editor.notice in other papers of this city that there is at present a great movement oti foot, about direct trade between she Sdutlt arid Bronleri.— If I do not intrude oil jrotif space arid time, I should like to draw the attention of the people of Georgia to a few points which m my humble opinion stand fore most to any, as regards direct intercourse with the continent. It was hinted at (I believe in the. Morning Newt) that if sufficisnt freight should be offered for the bark R. A. Allen at Bremen, for Savannah, her owner would by all means prefer to • see her come back to this’port direct. Now I doubt very much that such will or can bo the case—at least not for a cargo of nqgjchandise. There is hardly ». vessel Miring Bremen for the great emporium 4^fhe North, full of merchandise, or enough freight to pay her expenses er; how much less can you expect sufficient freight fora port in the South, Which to continental manufactures is entirely a stranger? Even if there should be found enough to fill a vessel such a cargo would glut the market at once, and consequently loave the ship pers a loss instead of the expeoted gain. It would be tried once only—then would be an end of it. • Everybody must acknowledge the no ble enterprise of our citizens who thus nre endeavoring to free themselves from the bonds of northern arrogance and monopoly, but they must be aided by someting more material than the paltry freight on shoes and blankets, jn order to induce shipowners to send their vessels direct from port to port. I said that hardly a vessel is leaving Bremen forNew York with a complete cargo of merchandise—as it would be a matter of total impossibility to fill ail those vessols that leave there nearly every day for some parts of the United States, with goods. But they do not go empty—but take tho most precious of all cargoes—cargoes of human beings, ready to till our soil, ready to adopt this country os their homo ready to become good citizens, and thus aid us to occupy the first rank amongst ail civilized na tions. I think there is hardly any foreign nation that the North arid West owo so much their prosperity to as to the Germans, and for the very single reason, because they are such good farm- Clothing Manufactured On Commission.

We ought to urge our representatives to bring this question before the legisla ture and aot at once whilst the mind of the people is busy on the subject of . Direct Trade. The Yacht Wanderer. The seizure of the slave yacht Wan- dercr is likely tofurnish business for tho courts and officers of the law for some time to come. District Attorney Wood bury is still engaged in taking the evi dence of the crew as to what woe done on board the vessel after she left Sa vannah. Evidence will also be taken at that oiiy to show what was done by the owners before the vessel was run away with from that port. It will be many months before all the evidence in the cose can be prepared by the govern ment. The crew of the vessel have li belled her for wages, and she has also been libelled by persons who furnished her with supplies. These actions de pend upon the result of thedaim of the government that the vessel was sent upon a slave voyage. The owner of tlie vessel, Mr. Lamar, of Savannah, now lays claim to her, and to strengthen bis claim presents tho copy of an indict ment in the United States Circuit for the district of Georgia against the late master, for piratically running away with her. Thursday,' in the United States District Court, Judge Sprague appointed B. C. Clark, Osborne Howes anil Foster Waterman, of this city, ap praisers of the Wanderer, and if Mr. Lamar desires he can have the vessel upon giving bonds to the-government to pay the_ value at which she may be appraised, in case the vessel is finally condemned. If he declines to take the Wanderer at that appraisal, the vessel will bo sold by the officers of the gov ernment, in whose custody she now iir.

Origin of Artists. It is indeed remarkable that the most distinguished artists of our own country have not been bom in an ortistio sphere, or in • position of life’ iriort than ordinarily favorable to ; the culture of ortistio genius. They ■ have ' nerirly all had to force their way upward In the face of poverty and manifold obstruc tions. Thus Gainsborough and Bacon were the. sons of doth-worken? Barry was ah Irish sililor-boy, and Moolise a banker’s apprentice at.Cork j Opie and Romney, like Inigo Jones; Were.rigtribn- ters; West was the son of asmallQuaker farmer in Pennsylvania; Nortboote'was a watchmaker, Jackson a tailor, and Ettya printer; Reynolds, Wilson, and Wilkie were the soils of clergyttibri; Lawrence was the son b'f tl publican, and Turner of a barber. Several of our painters, it is true, originally had soine connection yith art, though in a very humble way, such as Flaxman. whose father sold plaster costs; Bird, who or namented tea-trays ; Martin, who Was a coach-painter; lWright arid: Gilpiti; who were ship^painten.; Chantrey, who ’ was a carver and gilder,.and David Cox, Stansfield, and Roberts, who were scene-pain ton.—Self Help. - — ► « — - .in Fihalr Exercise.—For ladies Uvipg in the country, here is a timely word, by Harriet Mastineau: ‘“How can you snore the time 7’— Well! what la it? People must have bodily oxeroise, in town br country, or they cannotlive in health, if they can live at all. Why (should country fo)k have nothing better than the constitu tional walk which is the deity bf towns folk? Sometimes there is not half an hour’s occupation in the field or garden during the day, and theiri is the occa sion for an extended .ramble aver. the hills. On other dfiys, two, three, four hours slip away, and the morning is gone; and why not? The thinn done are useful; the exercise is healthful and exhilarating—in every way at least as good as a walk for health’s sake ; and there is the rest of the day fbr hooks, pen and needle.

Senor Es trada, in this letter, endeavors to sho# that Mexico cannot exist under the re publican system; and so soon as sharp- pudiates that, monarchy must take i its place; but not, parliamentary monarchy. The government was to be a despotism, ruled over by either a Spanish prince oranarehduke of Austria. Senor Es trada, in criti the various c ore in anywise incline stitutional government The sutyeat is discussed in all its relations, political and personal. The co-operation of Eu ropean powers was considered necessa ry to carry it into effect, and, according to the writer, his views appeu> to hkve been favorably entertained by some of th leading European governments.— The Juarez government is taking ad vantage of the occidental discovery of this despatch to hold the conservative party up to publio indignation, os guilty luxe oi Austria, oonor ns- 'iticising the qualifications of i candidates, rules out all who rise inclined to liberal or con- of treason.
