It is no less than a bet of one thousand dollars that he will hit an orange placed on the head of a hoy at ten paces; also -shoot one in each hand of tlie hoy. The wa ger is with Samuel A. Suydam, of New York, and tlie match takes place in this city on the 14th of June. The follow ing are tlie terms of the match: Travis bets Suydam SI,OOO that he will find a boy who will stand at the distance of ten paces and place an orange not to exceed two and-a-lialf inches in diame ter, in cacli hand, and one upon his head, which Travis will shoot from their respective localities, no object to intervene between the boy and the oranges. If Travis fails to find the boy who will stand, or fails to hit the orang es in the three shots, or any shot touch es the boy, he loses thebet. The match to be shot in Louisville, June I*s, 1858. Fires In Macon. A fire broke out on the premises of ilr. F. A. Lewis, on Walnut Street, last Wednesday Morning, but by the promp-! titude of the Fire Department, was ex- j languished with the loss of one out house. On Friday Evening a platform Car load of Cotton, (about twenty bales) took fire at the South-Western Railroad Freight depot, as is supposed by a spark from a passing locomotive, and was all j consumed.— Macon Telegraph. Religious Revivals.— -We loam from the Lebanon Ilerahl that an interesting revival of religion has been in progress in tlie Cumberland Presbyterian Church of that place for the past ten days.— There have been several conversions.— . The altar is crowded with mourners every day. The meeting is still contin ued with unabated interest. We also learn from the same paper that a revival of religion has been in progress at the Methodst Church, Mur freesboro’ for several weeks past. At last accounts there had been some se venty-five conversions.— LepuUiean Ban ner. —» Life Saving Apparatus. We have been shown by Mr. Nowl&n, architect anj engineer, drawings ex planatory of an invention for applying air rafts to vessels, beneath their decks, in such a manner as to prevent their foundering. The “rafts” consist of a series of elastic water-proof tubes, made of silk, canvas, gutta-percha, or other similar substances, and arranged so as to in staneousiy unfold when required for use, and fill with air. The apparatus is to be placed directiy beneath the ship’s deck and may be extended the full | length'of tiie vessel, —tlie degree ofj buoyancy to be proportioned to the j amount of tonnage. It is represented 1 that even were the vessel already sunk, j air might be forced into the tubes and j sufficient water displaced" to raise her Ellwood Walter, Secretary of the Board of Underwriters, says: “The vast importance of tlie object sought to be obtaiped by this invention in the saving of life and property, com mend it to the notice of all who have any interest in either; and it is desirable that a thorough examination of Mr. Nowian’s plan should be made by prac tical scientific men.”—AT Y. Journal of ] Commerce. .m- Rev. J. C. Welch, an eminent Baptist clergyman died at I jvnk-nc- S. L. i Saturday. CANZONET. My Jove for thee, dear lady, Broke on my manhood's prime, I.ike strain of harp strings bl< ndod With some meludious rhyme; And now his all the muisc To which my heart beats time. And as I’m pressing onward To storm the future’s breath, I hoar lily footstep patter By my side, and count them each As I'd count the liars of melodies Which Seraphim might teach ! My love’s not that wild feeling Which too otten leaves ns ruth, As its tierce Vesuvius buries Dream-built cities of our youth. Where tlie passion which was lava Makes a sepulchre uncouth ! Xo : it i-* a deep devotion To ti y purity aud truth. Ami iny love beneath 1 * life’s ocean Like the coral ’neath tlie sea Buildeth fairy grots and caverns, That are filled witli love of thee ; Where my heart’s tides ever murmur In a happy symphony I And my thoughts are like the coral; For when I would make them known ! Ail my words, howe’or impassioned, Seem to he transformed to stone, Coral snatched up from the ocean Where it has its life alo.ve. Ah, me ! love, no human language Can this love ot mine disclose ’Ti. ; to me—what shall I call it— This great love that greater grows? 'Tis a gleam of ruddy sunlight Flushing over all life’s snows 1 ’Tis a brook which evil spirits Cannot cross, for on it Hows Pure as if its crystal waters From some maiden fountain rose. But alas ! my rhymes are turning Sweet heart-poems into prose ! A Tornado In Liberty County. Mr. Editor:- I have been requested to give to the public, through your paper, and all the other papers of the city, a | short account of a Tornado which pass jed through the Western part of this county on the 19th inst., about four | o’clock, I’. M. | The directiwn of tne storm was pret j ty much from South-west to North east, almost ruittning the forest in its track. Though the forest and swamps, through which it passed, seems to be aluiost torn up, the trees lying in wild confusion in almost every direction, yet it seems to have spent its strength upon the farm and premises of C'apt. Smith, and his son James W. Smith, who were near I neighbors. Twenty-one houses were blown down, and four unroofed. In | one house were five negroes, in another j three and the wonder of all is, that no! one was killed. There are thirty per ! sons ; white and black on the lot at tlie j ; time, and to the praise of a merciful j Provideuce, not one of the whole num j her was not even hurt. Mr. Smith had just built a new gin house, which was thrown down, ami his cotton, almost the whole crop, was scat j tered all over the field and woods. Fod | der and cotton was seen the next day | five miles distant. I passed Mr. Smith's | place a few minutes after the Tornado | ltad passed on, and lam sure I never | saw such a complete wreck of houses, j and fencing, and pailing, and wagons, [ in all my life. I cannot tell what the loss will be to tlie Messrs. Smiths, but I suppose some j twelve or fifteen hundred dollars. A Citizen. Taylor's Creek, Feb. 21. Savannah Georgian. Intcr.Kttng Surgical Operation. A New York correspondent of the Boston Journal, under date of the 3d inst., says : “A very skilful operation was per formed by Dr Mott last week. Two years ago, a lady, attempting to dine on fish, lodged a large bone in her throat, She suffered intensely, could get no relief, and during the two years had not spoken a loud word. The in flamation created by the obstruction produced ulcers. It was found that she could not live long unless the bone was removed from her throat. With great reluctance she consented to have an op eration performed, and Dr. Mott was called in. Nearly a pound of ohloro-! form was administered to her without | the least apparent effect. She was keenly alive to the agony of tiic surge ry. An incision was made in her wind pipe from the outside. The bone was removed, the ulcers dressed. A silver tube was inserted in the windpipe, aud the wound dressed. Immediately up on closing the operation tlie patient! spoke audibly, the first time for two years. The first thing she 'said was— • i)h ! had T known tlie agony of this | operation, I would have died before I i submitted to it. The delicate and criti-i cal performance so well done, indicates! that Dr. Mott’s eye is not ‘dim, nor his natural force abated.’ ” John MnxaiELL turned Know Noth- I i\o. —Our readers recollect an anecdote! • of John Mitchell the Irish refugee, pub-! , lislicd a short time since in tlie Gazette,', in which he is represented as having said to a darkey he owns or hires— “Sambo, we are going to open the! African slave trade, and bring regular] jet black, ivory-toothed, Guinea niggers! in this country. What do vou think! of it?” Sambo replied, “Well, massa, tink it would be a good ting, and keep all dese low Irish out.” John seems to have been thinking seriously of tlie darkie’s answer, and has finally resolved to be guided by his superior, for lie is now denouncing in the Southern Citizen —tlie paper he pub lishes in Tennessee—the naturalization laws, and fears that, unless they are re pealed, “the United States is in danger of being made the common alms-house refugilum pemtorium and penal colony of i the world.” —Cincinnati Gazette. A Place to buy Produce Cheap.— In a private letter from Berlin, Wiscon- j sin, dated February 9th, we have the following extraordinary low rates for! produce in that place : “ Wheat is selling at 40 cents per! bushel; Oats, 17 cents per bushel : i Corn, 25 cents per bushel* Potatoes,! J l2 1-2 cents per bushel; Butter, 12 1-2, i cents per lb. ; Eggs, 11 cents per dozen ; I White Beans, 62 1-2 cents per bushel,} | while last Spring they brought $4 per bushel in the market; Hay is selling at! ! from $2 a $2.50 per ton, and good Hick- j 1 ory Wood brings $2 per cord.” —-♦* Kissing ou tilt-Ice. A lad in Boston, writing to one of the Editors of the Mirror, states that while] out skating one day last week at Jamai ca Pond, a young lady, promised any. raan who could beat her in skating! across the pond, a kiss. As the young! ! lady was rather pretty, all present star-, ted off, and at the end of the journey, it i was found that a young “darkey ” was! the winner. The lad, who is not slow on skates himself, writes us, that tlie; lady gave the “ buss ” as though she! was used to the buSS-iiess - Cmnnurdal Inteilkiue. Latest elates from Liverpool Feb.

This cure was effected by a preparation styled Lynch’s Autl- Kheumatic Powders Or these powders I took two dozen, and bar not had any symptoms of my old pains for tbr '. .years. The effect upon me was like magic Within three days after t Dad taken the first powder, my pains disappear _>d, and I have been entirely clear of them up to he present time. To all suffering from Rheumatism I do hearth y recommend these powders, confidently he leving that you have only to give them a' trial o secure a lasting euro. Most respectfully, Joux Jjnch.
