The ttcekly Dispatch.
Our weekly for to-morrow is a great
number. It contains the trial of Thomas
O Kelley, complete, with n copious sum
mary of interesting general intelligence,
anti commercial news. Single copies 5
cents.
Persons into whose hands this paper
may fail are invited to examine it, and
if they deem it worthy of support as a :
cheap Southern Home Newspaper, their j
aid is solicited in extending its circula- \
tion. To clubs it is only $1 a year—as
cheap as any of the distant weeklies, 1
for which so much money has been sent
out of the State.

Fatal C'asunlt y.
Yesterday afternoon, says the Chroni
cle, of this morning, as a train of cars on
the Charleston Railroad was passing
through the city, Benjamin Silas, a boy
about ten or twelve years of age, a son
of a widow lady residing in the city, at
tempted to jump in at the door of one
of the cars, and fell across the track,
when the wheels of the car passed over
his body, and so injured him that he
died soon after. We sincerely hope,
that the melancholy fate of this little
boy, will be a warning to other boys
about the city, who are daily endanger
ing their lives with these trains.-
The trains are drawn by mules, and
pass so slow, that the boys seem to
think they can take any risk with im
punity ; and all the efforts and warn
ings of the city officers to prevent them,
have proved unavailing. It would re
quire the constant presence of an officer
to protect them.
A iilai'icetl Change.
The Missouri Democrat brings us the
particulars of a mass meeting held at
Lawrence, Kansas, on the 13th tost.,
called, it says, “by members of the To
peka and territorial legislatures, and
other prominent citizens.'’ Gen. Lane
i$ represented to have made a speech
“in reply to the President’s message."
The report of the committee on business
excited much discussion. Gen. Lane
offered a substitute; Judge Conway, a
dissenting member of the committee,
offered a substitute to Gen. Lane's sub
stitute. The question then arose as to
the manner in which the vote should
he taken—whether by counties or rtm
me. The chair decided that it was im
practicable to vote after the manner pre
scribed in the call for the convention.—
It was then moved to indefinitely post
pone all business before the meeting;
which motion prevailed, and the meet
ing adjourned.
This is the latest effort of the agita
. rs in Kansas to revive excitement in
the Territory, and it lias resulted in a
complete failure. The object of the
convention was to express indignation
against the President’s Lecompton mes
sage. Some speeches were made ; but
tlie meeting could not even agree upon
a resolution. The fires of violence have
burnt themselves out in Kansas, and ev
ery indication justifies the conclusion
that the people of that Territory are
ready to accept the State govern
ment created by the Lecompton consti
tution. None of that indignation actu
ally exists concerning which so much
has been written by paid correspondents
of abolition papers Even in Lawrence
a mass convention could not agree upon
a resolution, Wash. Union.
A Very Plain Letter,
The following letter was sent by a
man to his son at college :
•' Mi/ Dear Son .'—l write to send you
two pair of old breeches, that you may
have a new coat made of them. Also
some new socks which your mothe has
just knit by cutting down some of mine.
Your mother sends you ten dollars
without my knowledge, and for fear join
would not spend it wisely, I have kept
back half and only send you five. Yoi r
mother and I are well, except that your
si.-ter has got the measles, which we.
-think would spread among the other
girls, if Tom had not had them before,
and He is the only one left. I hope you
will do honor to my teachings ; if you
do not you are an ass, and your mother
and myself are your affectionate pa
rents. "

IVSilis and his Old Dress Suit.
! Willis, on his return to Idlewildfrom:
! a day or two’s visit to N. York writes in
II the Home. Journal, one of his chatty j
[letters to “the Brigadier,” from which!
, | we clip the following characteristically I
[ told experience:
But, apropos of dress and its limits,
: let uie tell you of a tritle in my second
evening’s experience, on this visit to |
town, which, simple as it was, made me!
1 stand very uncertain in mv shoes. To I
3 the hypochrondriac, whose conscious j
| identity is occasionally disturbed, it
will he a drop of the comfort of com-!
3 panionship to here record it.
s Calling upon Un old friend, in the!
. course of the day, I was urged to go to j
a party in the evening, where were to
he gathered the picked-few dom of a'
1 very intellectual circle—among them!
i one or two whom I was particularly in- j
_ j terested to see. My heart was willing, i
but my wardrobe was weak; for, ex-1
• [peering to be away from home but a!
, couple of days, I had only my country'
habiliments of shooting-jacket andj
rough Housers; but, as I reluctantly
: refused, a thought came over me. In a j
closet of my brother's house, up town, I
there shoula be (moths and accidents ex-j
cepted) a well-worn suit of many years I
, ago, into which I, perhaps, might still!
. insert myself. Up to packing them!
away, a (reservation from the usual de-|
: cline and fall into the beggar’s wallet:
I which they owed to a tender memory of!
, the belovod voices to which the un- j
' conscious buttons had listened in their
■ time,) that dress coat and pantaloons)
. had, at similar gatherings, figured pre-1
. scntably.
My weight, I believed, was about the I
same as in their day, though I had been j
. since, of course, wedged open consider-t
p ably by daily bestriding of the saddle,)
[ and am, thereby, perhaps, split a trifle|
, higher than those early pantaloons!
would bo likely to remember—but, save)
tliis, (and the wrinkles out of their)
reach, 1 was a case of rather unconi- ]
moil statuquoA ty. At any rate I would j
. try. If the integuments were extant,!
!1 1 could put them on—go up and down)
i stairs in them confidentially at my bro- j
I ther’s—test their Rip Van Winklitudej
! by private experiments of all the eve-1
);ning's varied probabilities---and, if the:
,! rehearsal were satisfactory, I would ap-|
|jpear, in the costume so rigidly exacted)
. j by society, (black bi-forks and swallow-!
.! tail,) at my friend’s hospitable house,
j The closets were rummaged.
. j The departed clothes made their ap
[ parition hanging upon an affectionate
nail, “as was their custom of an eve
,! niug,” and open to occupancy.
I got in them.
They fitted me, as of yore.
Experiments all triumphant! The
threads which for years had stood the
. pull of a buttoned up heart’s hidden
, perturbations, were stii! constant to
their trust.
I went to the party—a most charming
collection of people some of whom i
had not seen for many years.

The Cheapest Illuminating Gas ever Discovered, j
HAVING purchased the Patent-right i
for the State of Georgia, and F.dgelield Dis- j
trict, S. C., for making Illuminating
GAS FROM WOOD AND WATER,
by Choate & Tyler's process, we are prepared to I
sell individual or public rights for the use of'
said Patent.
Among the many advantages these works have
over all others, are 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
pared with others.
Bd. The simplicity of the apparatus and pro ess
Any negro may be taught to make the Gas
perfectly in a very short tune.
Gas manufactured under this patent has been
in uninterrupted use at Kirkpatrick & LcitnerV
house, at Berzelia, on the Georgia Railroad, since
July last, where it may be seen. They have a
very superior light for oxk fourth thk prick of |
Gas made from Rosin Oil.
Any communications addressed to either of the :
undersigned, at Augusta, will meet with promp*
attenticn.
