dberang Dispatch. r AU(>UBTA. OA : FOUR O’CLOCK P. M, FEB. 17, 1858 Notice to Advertisers. Advertisements for the Evemxg Dispatch most he handed in by eleven o'clock in the forenoon, in j order to appear the same day. The heavy pres- ( sure of advertisements upon the columns of our | paper will not admit of their reception after the ( Lour named. i *•♦*- Signor Blitz. 1 The Signor had another good house j last night, and rve mean what we say i when we declare that it was the best t pleased audience wo ever saw. His tricks are amusing and ingenious—his Canary Birds the most wonderful little creatures in the world, and hisVentrilo- < quial feats both wonderful and amusing. Go and see the Signor if you want to drive dull care away. Close of tin- Dramatic Season. Mr. Makchant has just closed Con cert Hall, and we are probably to have ' no more theatrical amusements this winter. From the miserable support extended those which have been offered ns, it would almost appear that we de serve never to have it opened again.— And yet we confess ourselves unwilling to admit that Augusta has no taste for the legitimate drama. The truth is, a radical mistake has been made in cater ing to the taste of the people here. Af ter being surfeited almost to repletion with amateur performances during the summer, a stock company of ordinary merit, and without an attractive lady, was run on us for four mortal weeks at the opening season, and when at last one or two stars were presented, the popular prejudice had been arrayed against the place, and good perform ances failed to draw. When Mr. Marc hast came, he pre sented us with some very pleasant com edies, and the season promised to be more successful. But he, too. bad been recently deprived of a leading lady, in the person of his accomplished wife, who was a favorite in Charleston, and the performances offered very few attrac tions for the better class of theatre-go ers in our community, who soon became satiated with the elegant trifles present ed, and could not be called out even by the acquisition of a loading lady of con siderable talent and popularity. The weather has been unpropitious during the engagement of Mr. Booth, and in deed the company could not long draw in tragedy, however popular the star' actor might be. We respect Mr. Marciunt very highly. He has evinced toward us,and the commu nity, the character of a well-bred gentle man,and his company is in a high degree reputable and deserving. At the same time we respectfully suggest that, -while he came under very inauspicious circum stances—after the had management of his predecessor—and in the midst of the hard times—he-also has made a mistake in catering to the taste of our people.— Nothing short of a well-appointed com pany need expect patronage Tor any length of time here; nor will or.r thea tre-goers he satisfied with mere come dies and broad farces. No company need expect in a-city of limited size like ours, to run for any length of -time on the same piece; or make a visit to Au gusta a period of recreation, in which anything can he palmed off, without care, taste and study. And right here is another serious cause of so little suc cess attending theatrical seasons litre. Managers in Charleston or Savannah frequently have some extra attraction there, and to kill time, send a dramatic detachment up here, to keep thorn out of idleness and pay expenses. No man ager should lay the flattering unction to i his soul that anything will doin Augusta. : One who will bring a full company, and present standard pieces, in comedy and tragedy, catering more to intellect and less for the pit, mil draw in Augus ta, and we do not regret that other ef forts to please come short of success. And while on this subject we will take the liberty of suggesting that Con cert Hall itself might be made more at tractive. We believe it is soon to have new seats ; it should also he warmed and lighted better. But it is useless to i put it in order if it is to stand vacant, j and wo have no doubt the proprietor ! will do all that prudence will authorize j in the way of improvements. [COMMUNICATED. ] Another Mut for Curious Readers to Crack. Messrs. Editors -I notice that there is quite a rage among your readers for puzzles, charades, &c., and I am remind ed by it of an old question which puzzled me not a little in my youthful days. It may he new to some of your readers and I annex it: A father had a certain number of ap- j pies, which he desired to divide between ! his three sons. He gave to the eldest half of the whole number and half an apple over ; to the second, half the re mainder and half an apple over ; to the youngest, half the remainder and half an apple over. He had one apple left, and during the operation did not cut an apple. How many had he, and how many did he give to each sou ? Tours, truly, Noo o?. Handsome Donation. The Chronicle &( Sentinel of this moml ing publishes the following note to thjß Treasurer of the “Young Men’s Chr'Jjl tian Association,” of this city: A cor st a, Feb. 5, The Treasurer of the Young Mens tian Association, Augusta: i- I'r.AR Sm As evidence of ni} feeling for your Association, and desire to assist it in its good wiH ‘ pleased to receive the enclosed ■ ' cate for one share in the Cccrgi.^^H v-i,cl and Banking ('oinpany. - the par value of one hundred ■V" | lias been paid ) * „ K ’ „* * Lent, , This is Asli Wednesday—the ning of Lent —which lasts fntj. until Faster Sunday.

We shall do<S best, and hope to be able to persu. the Signor to travel up your way. sure are wo that both parties we B be pleased. [For the Dispatch.] Mr. Editor :—Your readers lmvo haps been already made aware of tl ■ arrival in this country of the Rev. D ■ Mo.von, of Paris. I learn that he is no' 1 in his way to this city from New Or leans, where he has been, preaching! with great acceptance to all denomina-l tions of Christians. The entire history! of hissojourn in the United States ; s ! I full of the proof of his eminejice as a 1 j preacher, of his zeal as a divine, and I Ijof his popularity as a man. Everywhere! ■j he has met with special favor as the! | agent of his Church in Paris, who havej •|sent him to America to awaken public! -1 attention to tftc interests of Protestant ism in France and its capital, and to I !secure the co-operation of pliilanthrop i | ists and Christians in the erection, for . | them, of a suitable house of worship on i a central lot of ground already pre . ! sented to them by the hand of British liberality. He is expected to occupy, ■ ; next Sabbath morning, the pulpit of the 1 Ist Presbyterian Church of this city, ■ ■, and the upper Methodist Church, at 4 . ! o’clock in the afternoon of the samej .! day. No one who feels an interest in | behalf of a great country like France,or .|of a great city like Paris, can restrain • j his sympathy for the cause which Dr. Moxod comes to present and to plead. \V. Ax Alabama Constable after “Et Al.” —An Alabama correspondent of ■ the Mobile Advertiser, justly proud of . the good things of his native State, writes to that paper as follows : “A certain fat constable in the coun ‘|ty of C w, State of Alabama, once . received a writ from a Justice of the •; Peace, known as Josh M e. The case was R vs. D et at. The | good constable, who was more famed for | his honesty than literary attainments, . !was sorely puzzled at et. al. So, after j keeping the writ for a week, he entered ' j the Justice's office with anxiety dcpict •| ed on his countenance, and saluted .'Squire Josh with this exclamation:— ‘Josh, who’s this et. all I’ve been look ing for him all over the county for a • week, and 1 can’t find him. I don’t be . lieve there’s any sich man in 0 w.’ ” A Singular Duel. Philadelphia, Feb. 12.—A sham duel , took place this afternoon on the west . side of the Schuylkill, between two! ' | young men, named De Charmon.t and ! i Slieriden. The balls were drawn I.y the . | seconds from the pistols before they | were handed to the combatants, a fact Jof which Sberidea was aware As the 1 j pistols were fired, Sheridcn fell, a :d De i Charmont, fearing the consequences, , J fled to parts unknown. In a letter ho ' jleft at home, he stated that if he killed! ; |his antagonist, he would leave for Eu ; rope immediately, ij A Sensible Decision. Porter’s Spirit, in reply to aeorrespon- j i dent, thus settles a point in whist, not generally understood, we think : It is optional with the non-dealer to! claim the deal when the dealer makes a misdeal. If the rule w ere otherwise,; the dealer, when he and his opponent stood at six and six, could always shift | the disadvantages from himself, by pm-1 posely making a misdeal. — Singular Fact. | The Constitution of the United States 1 j names the 4th of March for the inaugu-1 ration of the President. Upon expressing! I doubts as to what course would be! | adopted, should the 4th of March fall on Sunday, it was ascertained that it! would not fall on Sunday for three hun-j dred years. i ——*©* | John E. Burns, a native of Ireland, \ j 26 years of age, died on Thursday at ; the New York Hospital from the effects I of compression on the brain caused by a fall while wrestling. .. Rumored Political Conspiracy in Rome.— The following appears in the London Advertiser : Rome, Jan. 28.— The police have been exceedingly sharp since the news of the 14th in Paris. They have, or pretend to I have seized a number of letters indicating j that a political movement was project | ing to take place on the 15th January, and that the conspirators only awaited the signal of insurrection, a number of persons have been arrested at Ascoli. They confess to having committed fifty political assassinations since the year 1850. Gen. Sam Houston intends to make Arizona his future home.

I am now entirely well, not only of Rheumatism it self, but likewise of its effects. This euro was effected by a preparation styled Lynch's Anti- Rheumatic Powders Os these powders I took two dozen, and hav not had any symptoms of my old pains for tbr e « years. The effect upon me was like magic Witbiu three days after j 1 had taken the first powder, tny pains disappear ed, and Have been entirely clear of them up to the present time. 1 To all suffering from Rheumatism Ido hearti ly recommend these powders, confidently be- Moving that you have only to give them a trial to secure a lasting cure.

Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant con i tains the active medical qualities of the pureio coction of Wild Cherry Bark, and many other valuable ingredients that render it far better than any other Cough Medicine in this country RECOMMENDATIONS : Nkw Orleans, April 9, 1855. Dear Sir : The public generally arefUllyawaro of the thousands of remedies for diseased Lungs under the titles of Sarsaparillas, Pills, Plasters Liniments, Ac., that are daily brought to their notice througd the newspapers byway of adver tisements. My object in writing this note for publication is to induce the public, or at least those who are afllicted, to use one that contains articles of Deal Use in Pulmonary Diseases. I am conscious that in so doing, I am aetiug most , un profession ally and derogatorily to the inter i ests of medical science and the regular practi i tiouers of medicine. 1 refer to Wood man’s Cher* ) r y Expectorant, which is a scientific remedy , that I have used with more success than anv of , the usual prescriptions used by Physicians. * J.
