It contains, in addition to a very great va- ! riety of news and miscellaneous matter,; a beautiful ORIGINAL STORY- founded \ an fact , and written in this city. Every j family ought to have the Weekly Lis- ( patch. For sale at oar office, in wrap- j pers. Price $1,50 per annum—single • copies, five cents each. A Special Request. Persons visiting our office are specially requested not to take out papers with out permission. We miss valuable com mercial papers very often. To-day the N. Y. Journal of Commerce , from which we intended to make extracts, is out. The Concert. Thaj.beko, VtEUXTEMrs and the lesser, but fairer luminaries of the troupe, have come and gone, at.d the musical circles breathe freer. It cannot be denied that their advent produced a very conside rable sensation in town, and as a result thereof, Masonic Hall was crowded.— We judge from tire applause, ami from the r pinion of those who arc critics, that the expectations raised by the bril liant reception extended them elsewhere,' was fully realized. The writer know ing more of several other matters tiian of music, will not presume to enter up on a critical review of the performance. Mr, Tiialbkko makes a pleasant im pression on tlie audience—entering with an easy, quiet air, and taking his place at the piano with an entire freedom from Dempstebish formality.— ( We cau only say of his performance that we were astonished —and if any of his hearers can give a better opinion of the pciformance, they are welcome to do so. There is a character —a power—in his : playing that we cannot describe. Vieuxtemps (pronounced, they say, j vo-tomp) is not like Thalbf.ro, pleasing in i his manner. He fingers the violin and looks out at the audience witli airof ego tism, which seems to say— isn't that ‘clem Join ?’ His playing is so distressingly I scientific that its chief attractions are ! confined to more cultivated ears than 1 ours—and we shall not therefore go in to ecstacy over it, while we should be pronounced a boor, were we to intimate that its wealth of cold icy science, makes his performance much more bar ren of interest and effect than that of several of the noted violinists, ranked by fashionable criticism, two or three degrees below him. We felt during most of his playing, like we were being pelted by a shower of musical hail stones—it effected but did not please. But Yankee Doodle, and Patrick’s Day stolo , over us like a genial summer shower, and we felt better. Whether anybody else shared our emotions, we know not, but as one of the untutored barbarians who have no scientific music in our soul, we felt like thanking him for those small favors,—and when he comes tliis way again we trust he will give us more of the same sort. Miss Kemp has a rich contralto voice, and sings ballads very sweetly. She does not seem, however, to have power ■ k- to execute all she undertakes. Her j “ Coming thro’ the Rye,” was almost a failure—the balance was chiefly “Dutch” to us. Madame Johansen is an opera singer, and as far out of our line as Ylecxtemps is with his violin. Her voice has great j power and volume and with more train ing mustgive her high rank as]an opera | singer. In response to an encore she I sang “ We meet by Chance,” which was tlie only one of her songs that we j could altogether appreciate. It was in j fine taste, and elegantly executed. 1 We reached the Hall tco late to hear Signo Lehman, and most of the song. “ Ties Dearest Spot," by Miss Kemp. Its conclusion was most exquisite. We do not write as a musical connois seur-far from it—aud have not at tempted any special reference to the great musical pointsof theentertainment, but simply to note the general impres sion it made upon us. As great musical artists— which the principal performers certainly are—they cannot object to the opinions of a very great proportion of their hearers who are like ourselves— incompetent to criticise—hut go, to see Thalberg, and to he pleased with the harmony of music. We have no toadyism to lavish—and his troupe and r the public are welcome to our crude opinions. Their desire to please—their courteous bearing—and prompt re sponse to each encore impressed every body favorably, and contributed large ly to the enjoyment of the evening. They appear again on Wednesday next, when those who desire to see two of tlie greatest living musicians, and to hear a musical entertainment offered to an Augusta audience but very seldom, will avail themselves of an early chance to secure seats. ' Examli.ntion at RRhmoild Acaibmy. By polite invitation from tlie teach ers we intended to have been present at tlie examination of pupils tills morn ! ing, but unexpected business duties pre ; vented. Afi iend has promised usano | tice for to-morrow's paper. — Arrest. - Officer Christian, succeeded last night, j in arresting John Spalding who was con-; j cerned with a man by the name of Hit- 1 i.ee iu robbing Veal’s jewelry store in; Columbia, S. C., some days since. j fit?" The Paris correspondent of the j New York Commercial says that tlie! i French will not act in concert with thel j English in tlie attack on Canton. —■— ! fisTTheHon. F. W. Pickens, the ro ■ | cently appointed Minister to Russia, ■ | was in our city yesterday. From Salt Lnlte. | The latest advices from the Mormon I territory are to the lOtli inst., and re : port the most active preparations for ' j resistance to the United States. -i The yield of the crop in Utah has . i been enormous, so that the Mormons will be well provisioned. A number of : I Mormons are known to be in tlie camp 1 1 of the army, and accurate information of tlie movements of the troops was daily received at Salt Lake City. Many of the Indians are on good terms with ! the Mormons. > j Tlie people believe ifi "the entire de s structiiiii of tlie troops now at the foot .j j of the mountains, and as many more as j. i may join them in the spring ; not by the superior human force that may be '; brought to oppose their entrance into 1 1 the valleys, but by the exercise of “the Almighty’s power/’ The Mormons see no possibility of tlie I troops ever getting in, though tiie vaf , ; ley should be besieged bn every side. . t The narrow defiles must be passed, in 1 , | which bodies of men can be awfully i harrassed by guerrilla parties, and for - that business they seemed ready and , well skilled. An open fight is not counted upon, j but every other means of crippling the I • army will be resorted to, if once it be . comes a matter of life and death. There is, however, a hope prevailing among 'j the Mormons that tire administration I; will yet call off the army. I I Brigham told them that “he would exercise faith that the troops should !bo kept away, and he wished all ! to do the same, instead of wishing them i to advance. , His orders were imperative ilot to shed Mood, so that if another course should he adopted by tlie admmistra i tion towards them, the feeling of re ! venge should not binder the esteblish | ment of peace. I The entire policy of Brigham, as fore j shallowed in these despatches, is seen ;to be of the shrewd and artful charac ter. He hopes to keep his people in spired witli zeal for their religion, and I faith in God’s protection, while ho also t assumes to act on the defensive, in tlie j hope of eliciting sympathy, additional aid from abroad. But his outrages will not be buried beneath his skillful di ploraacy, and if a war of extermination, were waged against him and his infa. mous followers, they’ would get but simple justice. If there was ever a sore on the body politic that needed cauterizing, it is the festering mass of so; cial corruption tliatstains the Utah Vah ley'—the modern Sodom and Gomor rah. Xo Statesmen 111 Congress. ANew York Journal mourns bitterly over tlie intellectual degeneracy of our public men. It declares that .there are now no statesmen in Congress: It says, i ' whatever talkers there may he in , that body, it is now becoming sadly evi dent that there is not one statesman either in the Senate or the House—un less, perchance, some one of the hither to silent and obscure members should hereafter loom up in the due propor tions of statesmanship. Scarcely ever, in our history, has there been a time when this could he said with truth.— There have been times when tlie tide of genius and statesmanship ebbed low | enough ; but there were always one or two men of strength, either in the Sen ate or the House of Representatives, on whom one could rely, and from whom it was safe to expect, on all topics of lead ing importance, a speech or two, which thoroughly exhausted tlie matter in all its bearings It was reserved for ; our day seemingly to 'witness both houses sunk to a dead level of med-iocri- j ty. dullness, and idle talk.” \Vc do not altogether subscribe to the justice of these sweeping remarks. It is true we have now no Calhoun, Clay, or Webster, but there are men in the 'Senate deserving the name of states men, amirfcapable of guiding tlio desti- Jnies of this great country. That ini which we are most deficient is not pub lic talent but public virtue. Our great men are not great in patriotism, Every man seems looking out for himself, and the common good is a secondary consid eration. The glittering prize of high federal honors has debauched the mo- j ral* of the statesmen of every section,; not a few of whom, more selfish tiian j Esau, are willing to barter, not only j their own honor, but the whole coun- ; try’s birthright of freedom, for a beg-i garly mess of official pottage. Augllstn Dispatch. We notice that the Daily Dispatch lias j recently been enlarged, which adds much to its appearance. The Dispatch is really a good paper/ and one that we look for first in open ing our exchanges. It deserves a good patronage ; and being issued every evening, it always contains the very la test news. Cassville Standard. J Correspondence of the London Times. J The King and qumt of Delhi In Captivity. O O O O A Q 6 Wc have seen the captive King and Royal family; they aie in ruinous little rooms in one of tlie gates of the palace. The old King looks very frail, and lias a blank, fixed eye, as of one whose life is fast closing. He certainly is too old 1 to be responsible for anything that has been done. With liis sons much more guilt may lie ; some have been shot as you must have read ; some are yet untaken. The youngest son we saw, looking like 15,they say is'lß, hold and coarse to look at. He is the only child of the Queen. With her sonic of our ladies have had a long interview. They found her] seated on a common charpoy (bedstead),! dressed in white cotton clothes, with a I few and very trifling ornaments—all ofi her grand tilings having been taken j ' from her. She is described as short and j stout, above 30 years of age, with a.j round, animated face, not at all pretty, | but having very pretty little plump 1 hands ; she was cutting beetlenuts to I : eat with her pawn. Some 30 females, | relatives' and menials, surrounded her. j ; Slie.professes tlie utmost horror of the 1 Otl cavalry, to whom she traces ail her misfortunes. She says tlie King was too Jielpless-to control them, and that when their arrival had placed Delhi in rebellion against us, they were as. ready to rob iier as any one else: - She says tlie ! mutineers did rob thfc palace'and that ,j all her jewels were only’saved by being buried. She does not seem to blame ns for their present captivity ; she under stands the necessity for inquiring into guilty or innocent parties; but she did | not seem to assert the King's innocence as much as her own. She- said lie had been in the hands of bad people. There appeared to lie frightful rivalries among , tlie women ; it is said she criminated tlie sons of the former wives-, she being ' the last. Her sister is represented as ■much better looking than herself, and tins a daughter of thirteen married to j the King's youngest soil,, alfeady racii *; tioned, and reputed Very beautiful.— Our ladies describe her as having su b perb large eyes, and a most beautiful [ little mouth, but her face otherwise too ’ flat aud full. Some of the wonuui. told them they had English women and l ; children in the palace after tlie massa cre, in hope of preserving them, but j, that the mutineers demanded them and • could not be resisted. ’They say ttie’Se poys complained that tlie King was feeding English women daintily, while he only gave them grain for food.— ’ Heaven knows if the royal family be I clean in heart and hand or not. I say nothing sentimental about them, but I : pity' them. Their religion is quite enough to excite our pity ; and if they ’ have been abettors of murders, they ! ought to be pitied for their sins. If they are, as they say, innocent of any . share in the y rebellion, they are victims indeed. I trust all examinations may i be judiciously and fairly conducted. — I I Mr. is an excellent man—most up ' right and indefatigable in discovering ' the truth,and withal most tender heart " | ed. Hejwill not spare the guilty.nor inflict suffering ou the innocent.

See circular and thefollowirg CERTIFICATES : j Ido hereby certify that, after suffering for thirty -three y ears with the most excruciating pain from Chronic Rheumatism, and finding no permanent relief from any of the many prefer p tions given me by different physicians, I m now entirely well, not onlyof Rheumatism i self, but likewise of its effects. This, core as effected by a preparation styled Lynch’s Ati { Rheumatic Powders Os these pow ders I took j two dozen, and bav toot had any symptoms of i my old pains for tbr c « years. The effect upon me was like magic Within three days after i I had token the first powder, my pains disappear ed, and I have been entirely clear of them up to the present time. To all suffering from Rheumatism I do hearti ly recommend these powders, confidently be lieving that you have only to give them a trial to secure a lasting cure. Most respectfully, John I,lv h. ! Eatonton, April 22, 1855. j I have no hesitation in saying, that after itav I tag suffered for upwards of thirty year with ; Rheumatism in the most dreadful form—first in my toes, then my thumbs, wrists and knees, and lastly, most excruciatingly in my neck. 1 took two or three dozen of Lynch’s Anti Rheumatic Powders, and notwithstanding I urn old and my constitution much shattered. 1 have received the I greatest benefit imaginable: my relief from suffering and pain, I cannot attribute toanything j but the powders, tor 1 have tried everything in vain, that friends could suggest or physician! I prescribe. I would, therefore, earnestly n i commend them to every sufferer of this drea< ful disease, let him be older young. _ Rob’t M trick. Eatonton, April 2, 1855. I am happy to state, lor the benefit of that Who are afflicted with Rheumatism, that a pat j tact cure has been affected in the person o! au€ gro man of mine by Lynch’s Antißhenraat. Powders, the said boy having suffered with t incessantly for twenty years, lost at least one third of his time until he took tho above pow ‘tars. Since which time, now nearly two years he has been a valuable and constant field hand never having suffered With Rheumatism since to the best of my knowledge, and I take pleas ire in recommending them to those thus atliiet d. Mildred L. Collingsworth. April 10.1555. 1 can safely testify to the efficacy of Lynch’s Anti Rheumatic Powders, having ‘been entirely cured or the Rheumatism by one box some three years since, after having been severely afflicted with it for seven previous years.
