Signor Blitz.
In consequence of tbe bad weather!
Signor Blitz did not open at Concertl
Hall last night. He will do so thiJ
afternoon, and to-night, and as thel
weather is now fine we hope to see al

Blind Torn.
We witnessed last night, the first

this is one them ; and every person who

an entertainment of sterling me. it.
Tom will give an exhibition every
day during the week at 11 o'clock, and
at night at 7 1-2 o’clock, at Masonic
Hall. _____
A Ma(i)llclou. Horse.
The crowd in front of the I’ost Office
was highly amused, this morning, at
the equestrian performances of a mail
Oder. The horse-boat for Blanktown
became unmanageable, in consequence
of being indisposed to carry two males,
the mail hoy and tiie mail hag, and at
every attempt to start, away into the
air its heels would go! (the horse’s
heels, not the boy’s, nor tbe bag’s;)
and then the crowd would shout, while
the unfortunate rider seemed to eye the
ground with envy. Now the impetu
ous steed would sit upon thesteps, now
plunge widly at our friend Morris’ print
shop—the delight of the audience all
the time increasing. We left the scene
before its conclusion, but were remind
ed of those beautiful lines :
“Old Joe ! kicking up behind and lieTnro,
(And the mail bags) kicking up behind old Joe!' 1

The Reaction.
Again we have the pleasure of con
gratulating our people on the favorable
and steady character of foreign advices
—favorable at least to tbe South. Our
staple and its manufacuture promise
well. The plethora of mrney cannot
find and will not he content with relief
in moneyed transactions at from 1 1-2
to 2 per cent, per annum, and will seek
its outlet m the channels of enterprise
—commerce and speculation. Varied
industry and investment can alone dif
fuse, as’they can readily absorb, the safe
employment of cash capital. Gold and
cotton are fast restoring the commercial
equilibrium and tbe mercantile rela
tions of the world —and it is vain to
presume tliat because confidence is not
entirely restored, and, therefore credit
not go abundant and facile, the produc
tions of industry, in every form, will
not be sustained in price. There is mo
ney enough in tbe form 01 specie and
its equivalents, such as good bank pa
per and bills of exchange, to conduct
on a cash basis (apart from any other
forms or quantity of crediththe inter
change of products, raw or manufac
tured, at full and healthy rates. We
have before us a coming illustration of
the efficiency of the cash system. Nor
is it inconsistent with speculation,
whilst conducive to firmness. What
safer investment can the cash millions
of Europe, now a drug in the money,
market,find than cotton and its manufac j
kures, and holding them until a'tempol
rarily balked consumption comes up t<|
the exigency of the need for clothing I
It is true that American manufacture!
have for the last six months (durin
the revulsion) taken but a small anil
greatly diminished proportion of cot!
ton ; yet for the next six they will anil
must take largely, or be totally de l
stroyed ; yet, if they do not, Europc
will’increase their work and supply the
deficit; and yet there is a manufactur
ing capacity, under reviving confidence,
to make up every where for lost
time. Money has become 100 abundant fur
the wheels of industry anywhere, hereafter to
stop. Ail the material elements of sub
stantial prosperity are untouched, al
though the card-houses of fictitious
credit have been blown away: and eve
ry day is now illustrating this truth.—
Credit doctors are behind the times,
and credit is not the universal panacea.
The gold of the Mines, cotton and wool,
iron and breadstufis, silks and leather,
sugar, tea and coffee, and, over ail, cash,
have taken its place.
If consumption tails oil in the East,
the same cause which produced it, will
also diminish the supply of the raw ma
terial. The South never held so com
manding a position, commercially, po
litically and agriculturally as now.—

r ,i.\ despatch in the
dated
cinuat^^BT
East evening, about seven o’clock,
the Methodist Protestant Church on
Sixth-street, near Race, was partly des
troyed by the explosion of defective gas
pipes.
At the hour mentioned, some fifteen
persons were assembled in the base
ment for meetings, when a strong odor
was felt, and an effort made to discover
the leakage. A light was applied to the
metre, when the blaze burst forth, but
was extingushed by a bucket of water.
Quiet was almost restored, when the
| explosion took place, tearing up the
i floor, shattering the walls, and making
a wreck of the basement. More than
I half the pews in the Church were torn
up, windows were blown out, and por
-1 tions of the floor blown as high as the
| ceiling. Doors were forced from the
hinges, and blown into the street. The
explosion was heard at a distance of
Half a mile. The windows of many
buildings in the vicinity were destroy
ed. Eight or ten persons were severely
wounded, and two or three of them are
not expected to survive.
Tlie PHllosoplier 1 * Stone.
It is said that John Randolph once
suddenly rose up in his seat in the
House of Representatives, and cried
out, “ Mr. Speaker, Mr. Speaker, I have
I found the philosopher's stone It is,
i Pay as you go.”
John Randolph said many wise
things, hut perhaps no one better than
I this.
“ Pay as you go,” and you can walk
1 the streets with a manly front, iook
| mg at men in the eye without flinch
! ing. Yon will not have to cross the
way to avoid a dun, or look into the
shop windows to avoid seeing a credi
tor.
“Pay as you go,” and when you
laugh, it will be a right honest and
hearty one.
“ Pay as you go,” ar.d when you
sleep you will not dream of bills which
you can’t pay, or wake up to credits
which you cannot support.
“ Pay as you go,”—and your home
will be your home—happy, cheerful,
contented, safe.
Severe Kissing.
“ Smocked liis tips, ami then he kissed her.
Kissed so hard tic- raised a blister,
And she set up a yell.”—
A fashionable tailor in Philadelphia—
as we learn from the )‘ress— is in file
habit of exacting a kies from his sewing
girls whenever they biir.g in a job. One
girl, to whom his importunities for a
kiss had become unendurable, and who
—so says the account—would not allow
this favor mainly because the tailor’s
breath was flavored with tobacco, devis
ed a most effectual remedy against
further artnoyanue. Her twin brother
donned iter clothes, and took a piece of
work to tiie shop. The tailor beseecli
ed for a kiss, tiie boy played tiie woman
well, and behaved as natural as life, af
ter a reasonable time,
“ Whispering, ‘I will ne’er consent, 1 consented.
She tailor was warned, however, tiiat
when she kissed, she kissed hard. “So
m«rh the better,” said tiie knight of
the shears, “the harder the better;” so,
wiping his mouth, taking deliberate
aim., and approaching the tempting
prize slowly, and appreciatingly, their
faces met when tlio boy-girl seized the
tailin's chin between two rows of sound j
teeth, and held hint until his cries
brought such a crowd around his shop
that .thc police were compelled to inter-
Iffirm

Washington, Feb. 24. The Navy!
Department this morning received ad-!
vices from Commander Page of the ship
Germantown, dated Bombay, January
9th. He iiad learned from the Ameri
can cousul, Dr. Ely, that our commer
cial affairs are in a happy condition in
all respects. The latter expressed him
self much gratified at the appearance
or one of our national vessels there as-!
ter an interval of 15 years.
Our trade was large there, and at that j
time there were about fifteen ships load-! i
ingand discharging. Commander Page
had liecn visited by the senior captain
of the Imaum of Muscat's navy, who
was superintendending the building of a j i
frigate for his government.
The revolt in India was nearly at an j
end. That is, Commander Page he-||
lievcs the fighting over, hut the Eng
lish will, nevertheless be compelled to |
keep a large force in India. They have!
now about sixty thousand troops in dis- j
fereut parts of the country. He had! '
visited the authorities of Bombay and i
met with every national and personal!
courtesy. j

trict, S. C., for making Illuminating J t
GAS FROM WOOD AN t D WATER, l
by Choate & Tyler’s process, we are prepared to f
sell individual or public rights lor the use of

Among the many ad vantages these works have \ ~
over all others, arc the following :
Ist. The abundance and cheapness of the ma- \
terial from which the Gas is made, viz :
PINE WOOD AND WATER.
2d. The durability of the works when com- i
pared with others. j -
3d. The simplicity of the apparatus and process i
Any negro may be taught to make the Gas
perfectly in a very short time.
Gas manufactured under this patent has been <
in uninterrupted use at Kirkpatrick & Leitnor’s '
house, at Berzelia, on the Georgia Railroad, sinco <

Y* T UO!(MAN'S CHERRY EXPECTO
»y RANI, the medicine that has created
such an excitement at the North among the Phy
sicians, ami has been pronounced by all who
have used it as being far superior to any Cherry
Pectoral. Woodman’s Cherry Expectorant con
tains the active medical qualities of the pure le -
coction of Wild Cherry llark, 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 : 'Hie pubiic generally are fully aware
of the thousands of remedies for diseased Lungs
under the titles of Sarsaparillas, Pills, Plasters,’
Liniments. Ac., that are duily brought to their
J notice througd the newspapers byway ofadver-
J < tisements. My object in writing this note Tor
' j publication is to induce the public, or at least
those who are alliicted, to use one that contains •
articles ol Ural l';e in Pulmonary Diseases. I
' “I" conscious that in so doing. 1 am acting most
j onprofessionally and dcrogatorlly to the intcr-
I ests of medical science and the regular praeti
• tioners ui medicine. 1 refer to Woodman's Cher*
1 1 ry Expectorant, wi ich is a scientific remedy
J that 1 have used with moro success than any of
} j the usual prescriptions used by Physicians.
J. M. Maitland, M P.
Gallatin, Miss.. May 1. 1855.
O. O. Woodman —Dear .Sir : I have given vour
J | Cberry Expectorant a rair trial, and am'well
0 picked with its effects —better than any «ther
j article I ever met witn. I would be pleased to
o have you send tnea dozen bottles bv the bearer
o | Respectfully, W. M. Mason, M. D.
0 This preparation has attained a wide celebrity
0 from the universal successes which bos attended
0 1 its us**. For couglis, colds, and in fact any pul
-0 j monary complaints this medicine, from its pecu
-0 | liar properties as a ditsolvent, and its soothing

commended by the leading physicians of New
