Th> First Monday In May. it should be borne in mind that the Commercial Convention, at Knox yille last summer, uppointed Montgomery. , as the place, and the First Monday £, May next, as the time, for the next sea son of the Southern Commercial Con tention. All the Southern States arc •ipected to be well represented. Georgia Item*. A difficulty occurred in Ringgold, on Wednesday, between two brothers nam •d Wooten, who were drummers for ri- TS I eating houses at that place, in which #ne of them was severely, if not mortal ly wounded. The Atlanta Intelligencer jptly&dds: This deplorable affair should be « warning to the Houses of Montague and Capulet. The poor victims can douot lecs truly exclaim : “ A plague on both your houses.” One of the burglars whose deprcda- Mons in Calhoun and Dalton, we allu ded to in our paper a few days since, fee been arrested in Marietta. A new Presbyterian ChucliinThomas Oille was dedicated on last Sabbath. Ihe sermon was preached by Rev. Mr. Hamilton. A new American paper is about to be gtarted in Bainbridge, Ga. The Savannah Republican publishes a 4ispatch announcing the death of Jas. i Bl Shelton, of Savannah, in an affray at Washington City. 1 . Special Corrvpondence of the Dispatch. ArpuNO, March 4, 1858. On my way here I stopper! over night with Mr. Leitneb, at Berzelia, whose •ting house has a reputation as wide as tire country. At night his house and grounds are beautifully illuminated ' with the Wood and Water Gas, of which you have made several noties. It cer tainly appears to possess all the ad van , tapes you have claimed for it, both in ( appearance, and in price. Arrange ments are in progreswto introduce it in to your city. A Mr McGinnis, of Marion District, • Carolina, was run over and instantly killed ou the Georgia Railroad, near Berzelia, to-day. Reports of the manner in which the accident occurred, me contradictory. The most probable ac eount we have heard is, that he was left by the down passenger train, while j taking breakfast at Berzelia, and fol-j lowed the train in the hope of catching j it at the wood station three miles below, but he reached the station too late, and by some means, whether from exhaus tion, or in an effort to get on a freight train, was run over and killed. One i report says he was lying on the track as , the train approached, round a curve, . and was not seen in time to stop. Court is in session here, Judge Hoi.t presiding. No cases of much interest hare been tried, and I find it an up-hill job to attempt to report for the Dispatch M I promised to do. On to-morrow the *asn of the State us. Whitakkr. for kill ing Rollin, at Dearing, a year or two *;<>, will be tried. This will probably •onclude the business of the week, as it does this paragraph, from yours truly, Viatob. Special Correspondence oj the Dispatch. Covington, March 3d, 1858. Quite a romantic incident occurred here a day or two ago. A delicate look ing lad appeared at the door of one of •ur citizens, and asked shelter for the •ight.saying that he had lost his pocket hook, and wanted to look for it in the morning. Os course such a request was granted, and the young wanderer was an object of generous care and solicitude. He appeared rather coy, and was dispos al] to avoid the members of the family. In the morning, one of the hoarders •oming down stairs, observed the mys terious individual, and slipped out at the back door and has not sinco been heard of. Soon after two or three gen tlemen rode up, and recognized the the timid looking youth, in male attire, as a young lady named Vincent, who has lived near the line of Jasper county, and is of reputable character and fami ly The young man who made such a sudden disappearance formerly lived in her neighborhood, and it is suppos ed that the young lady had conceived »n attachment for him, and adopted this means of obtaining an interview. The gentlemen in search of the fair wanderer represent her as deranged ; forgetting no doubt that All truo lorerp are Cosiaid and skittish in all motions else Save, iu the constant image of the creature That is beloved.” The affair created considerable excite ment in our quiet burg, and as the Dispatch is getting to know almost ev •rything that happens, I thought you would like this item of gossip. On sale day negro property sold at good prices here—a field hand bringing $1,350, at administrator's sale. Cotton is dull at abont 11 cents. Yours truly. Ysiaow EITHt. Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. Newnan, March 2d, 1858. Cold! bringonyour Greenlands and Luplands, “and let us be miserable to srether." Speaking of kindling wood, it seems to be at a premium just now. ' Ry the way, I wonder where Paine, the 1 water gas man, is? I was reminded of his wonderful discoveries last night, on the up train, when there was a shiver ing crowd around the stove ', the con ■ ductor advanced with a knowing look, and poured about half a tumbler of wa ter upon the struggling material of com- j bustion. You can easily believe thatj his intentions were good, but his judge- j ment was not of a very commendable character. It finally wanned up and we still lived. Newnan is quite a stirring place, as I now see it amid all the gatherings from the rural districts, the running to and fro, the excitement of sale day and court week. A Will case, involving some sixty thousand dollars, is now on trial ; able council are on either side, conspic uous among them I notice B. H. Hill. The people like the Dispatch, and uni formly renew their subscriptions*; a res pectable list of new ones I subjoin. S. Special Correspondence of the Disjmtch. KnOEFiELD, March 4, 1858. The week has been one of considera ble bustle, on account of the popular interest iu the trial of George Tillman for the murder of George Christian. , The case has been put off until next , week. Signor Blitz has been in town, and ( amused large crowds with his inimita- . ble budget of magic, ventriloquism,and i canaryism. He is a trump. | The mail is about to close, and 1 must | of course close also. Yours Truly, Quiff. (IT Col. Oku, of South Carolina, pub lishes a long letter in the Anderson (S. C.) Gazelle, in which he declines bec;m iug a candidate for Congress at the Oc tober election, as urged by his frimds. " Later from California. The steamship Moses Taylor arrived at New York on Sunday morning, with California dates to February 20. The Moses Thylor brought $1,700,000 in specie. The summary of events for the fort night comprises a bloody calendar. A perfect mania for suicide and murder seems to have taken possession of the people in ever quarter of the State The Legislature is in session, hut has yet done nothing of importance. The Democratic party is in a • ‘ peck of ‘rou bles” about the Kansas question. The 1 Federal officials and all they can con : trol, support Lecompton, hut the mas . | ses are with Douglas. llnllroads In Urargla and South Carolina. We learn from the “Railway share list” of the American Railroad Journal that the following named Railroads in Georgia and South Carolina, whose ag gregate length is 995 miles, and whose aggregate cost was $21,040,016, made last year the following dividends, viz : 1 In Georgia. Adividendof i The Georgia Rail- per ct. | road, whichcost, $4,174,491 71-2 The Central Rail road, which cost, 3,750,000 10 “ The Southwestern Railroad, which cost, 1,716,731 8 “ Tlie Macon and Western Rail R. which cost, 1,656,005 10 “ The Atlanta and LaGrange Rail road which cost, 3,171,707 8 “ In 8.

Later from Texas. The New Orleans Picayune contains reports of Texas news brought by the steamships Charles Morgan, and Gal veston, from which we gather the fol lowing items : The celebration es the 22d was con ducted with much spirit, in Galveston, , notwithstanding the cold rain. The Legislature adjourned on the 17th inst. The most important acts of the session are the university bill; the four , sections bill to encourage internal im provements ; the geological survey; the revisions of the statues; the amend ment of the criminal code; and the land bill, fixing the price of the public domain The Reporter has reports from all parts of Western Texas, of extrnordi naiy rains and high water. A correspondent of the News, writ ing from Austin, under date of the 15th, says ; There is no money in the treasury ; persons having claims must make up the amount of a SI,OOO bond, or take tieasury warrants, which are atadis count of 5 per cent. This is one of the omissions of tho Legislature that for time will be severely felt by many peo ple. The Eastern Texan says that trains of emigrants are constantly coming into the State, many of whom possess “ne groes, fine teams and ready cash.” The Dallas Herald records the en campment, near Belknap, of a party of eighty men with fifty wogons, who are engaged to join Lynch's exploring ex pedition, to bore artesian wells along the route. The Washington Ranger describes the business of that place as being very ac tive; cotton is arriving in considerable quantities. The river is in a navigable condition, and the steamer Fort Heury continues to run up as far as Richmond. A German shoemaker named Christin Klein committed suicide in Marshall on the 14th inst. The Legislature passed, among its last acts, a joint resolution submitting to the people an amendment to the con stitution, to enable each county to dis pose of its own school bonds, with suit able legislative instructions. The Pacific Hotel Disaster. From the St. Louis News of Thursday evening, we copy the following in re gard to the supposed origin of the late j calamity in that city. It says : “ Almost every citizen of St. Louis | has, no doubt, had strong suspicions j that the Pacific Hotel disaster was the result of the most diabolical incendia rism. and circumstances are now being developed which tend to confirm that suspicion beyond the possibility of a doubt. Ever since the event, our very efficient and sagacious Superintendent of Fires, Capt. J. E. D. Couzins, has been conducting an examination into the cause which bids fair to be crowded with the most complete success. It appears that Mr. Doane, one of the unfortunates who was supposed to have lost his life by the fire, and whose re mains were recovered from the ruins, retired to bed about ten o’clock, in the room adjoining that usually occupied by a man named Charles L. Taylor alias Sanders, and seperated from it by a board petition, reaching only part of the way to the ceiling. About one o’- clock on the morning of the fire, the watchman of the Pacific Hotel met Tay lor in the street, and, in conversation with him, Taylor stated that Deane had $4,000 in his room with him. At two o’clock the same morning, Taylor went to said hotel and went to bed. At a quarter past 3 o’clock, he went to the Townsley House and took a bed for the night, and slept there.— He had no boots on at the time. In the morning the bed in which he slept was found considerably stained with blood, and no wound was on the person of Tay lor. The room at the Pacific Hotel, oc cupied by Doane was in a part of the building affording the best chance of his escape, had he been alive. When his remains were recovered, they were upon the bed on which he had slept, and it was saturated with blood. There were other unmistablc indications that , he had been murdered. Taking all these circumstances into consideration, suspicion rested so strong- 1 ly upon Taylor that he was arrested on the charge of murder and arson. # — Extraordinary Suicide. From the California papers we learn I that Adolph F. Branda, a native of | Norfolk, Va., and employed as confiden j tial clerk by the house of Macondray j& Co., of San Francisco, committed sn licideonthe 20th January. He hired a | horse, went to the Lone Mountain Cem etery, wrote a letter, directed it to Mr. Macondray, placed it together with a ten dollar piece in a handkerchief, and ! tied the bundle to the horn of the sad , die. He then turned the horse loose and it returned to the city, where the j bundle was opened, the letter found . and sent to Macondray. In it he con fessed he had wronged his employers , by embezzling the funds, and avowed 1 his intention to commit suicide. His body was afterwards found in the Cem etery. By his side was found a small vial containing about four grains of strychinc, and scattered ou tire ground were scraps of paper torn from a mem orandum book. On these pieces of pa per deceased wrote disjointed sentences with a pencil, expressive of his feelings and the thoughts uppermost in his mind after swallowing the deadly substance. The character of his handwriting as the time passed and as the poison operated on the system grew more tremulous and indistinct. Both shies of the pa per are written on, except the last scrap which contains only these words, “ I am dy”—probably put there at the mo ment deceased fell into the first parox ism. The sad fate of Branda presents one of the most singular cases of sui cide on record. On the first piece of paper the deceas ed wrote — Yet the thoughts of my poor mother keeps my heart warm, or rather hot, for I feel lam her murderer. God help me! How slowly time passes; it seems to me nearly half an hour since I tdfik the fatal dose, yet Ido not suffer. How chilly it is. I feel stiff from the cold! Numer two: “ It is fearful to die thus alone—to look around, see the hills, hear the roar of the ocean. See your fellow-beings moving in the distance, yet die alone.” “Just after my third dose a man pass ed and told his friends I was crazy. God forgive me. I hope I am. What ter rible suspense this waiting for death !” Number three: “ —For conscience—half of the bot tle I have taken, four doßcs of the strych -at intervals of about three min utes, yet do not suffer. I feel nervous, i but will note the time on the back of til is.” “—I think it has been fifteen min- : utes since I took the first. lam cold i and chilly. May some good result from i my death.” i On the fourth pie«e the writing is without any order. The words are i spread irregularly over the paperiength wise and diagonally. They are as fol- i lows: : “ —fully half an hour. I am dying, i God help me. A. T. B. Number live : “I am dy—” < A queer Hiding Place—What Next 5 j A correspondent writes that on the < night of the late affray between the col- i lege students and firemen at New Ha- i ven, Connecticut, a fashionable party c came off at which several students were I present. One individual went armed i with a hatchet. One of tlie carriages re turning home late from a party, with two ladies and a student inside, was 1 stopped by a party cf men, who de -1 rnanded to know whether there were any students iuside. Iu an instant, the ! ladies with remarkable presence of mind concealed the student with their tumps. Tile firemen looked in, saw no students, and permitted the carriage to pass on.

Washington, March 4.—Yesterday the Kansas House Committee met. Col. Calhoun's statement in regard to the condition of affairs in the Territory of Kansas was refused to be received by the Committee. The lion. Alex. H. Stephens presented a report as embody ing the views of the majority. The Committee refused to adopt a resolution calling for a new census ; and the reso lution to abide by the documentary evi dence was adopted. It is stated that the majority and minority reports will shortly be presented to the House. The report offered by Mr. Stephens was adop ted by a vote of eight in favor to seven against it. It is believed there will be two minority reports. The Committee has adjourned sine die. In the Senate, to-day, the Kansas State bill was discussed. In the House, the resolution of inquiry ; about Executive influence was discuss-; ed, and the resolution laid oh the table. | Reinforcing tUc Ulnli Army. i Washington, March 4. —Several ofli- ■ cers of the army are here, who are urg ing the importance of reinforcing Col.

The prayer meeting excitement in j New York, still continues. A corres- j pendent writing from there, on Satur-: day last, says ; The prayer meeting excitement ap pears to have reached its culminating point, in many of the churches to-day. Some of the clergy in the Baptist and Methodist churches, related facts and incidents, which would almost justify ' the suspicion that some mighty super natural agency was at work, turning ' men’s minds from the pomps and vani i ties of this wicked world, and all the i sinful lusts of the flesh, to the “king- < dom that is not of this world.” Men ; i have come forward voluntarily, and' made restitution of ill gotten gains , from ten cents up to hundreds and hun dreds of dollars, while others who have been leading a life of flagrant sin, for , years past, have all at once, by means , of the spiritual grace, received at the daily prayer meetings, become servants of the Lord. These statements, I say, were made 1 in the pulpits to-day, and it cannot be 1 doubted, therefore, that they are al! 1 true. The effect of them must be to > increase the enthusiasm to a still high- < or pitch, at the same time that it will 0 all the more excite the apprehensions i of those who predict that thes.; religi gious excitements will be followed by l a reaction by ami by, which will enable I the evil one to regain what he seems to 1 be losing just now. < It is proper to say, that, with the ex- 1 ception of here and there, a very low * churchman, the Episcopalians take no part in the revivals, though all their j churches are open as usual during Lent, * for morning and evening prayer. The same remarks apply to the Roman Gath- ‘ olics. On the 4th of March, there is to j 1 be especial prayer among the Revival- j 1 ists, for the President and Congress. — , Cost or Living in England. The London Times publishes commu- t nications from English families giving t their domestic experience in the cost of ( housekeeping. It would appear from these statements that the expense of 1 living even in London is not as great as in some of our large cities. “Agentle j man by birth and" education” gives all ! the expenditure for housekeep j ing of himself, wife, one child, one wo- 1 1 man servant and one nuisery girl, from 1 ; January Ist, to December 31st, 1857. 1 i I’he total is about eleven hundred dol- < lars. The item for taxes is less than * in most of our own cities, and the item < j for rent one hundred and twenty dol- i j lars, when in New York, or B jston, says ■ , the Boston Traveller, the same gentle 's man would hardly be able to accommo- : date himself for less than four hundred ! j dollars facial Notices (IT for Savannah.— -The Iron Steamboat Company's Bteamer AUGUSTA ill leave a3 above with dispatch.
