The following correspondence was: handed us several days ago, and the I friends of Medical Science will be grati fied to learn that Dr. Dugas has under taken a work ot such importance, and j which he is so well fitted to accomplish j in a satisfactory manner.

Dugas —Dear Sir: The pro-1 sent class of the Medical College of I Georgia, being fully impressed with the: importance and practical value of your 1 system of Diagnoat and Practice of Sur- j gay, have appointed the undersigned j •omuiittee to solid of you a publicu-j tion of the same.

Hobby, Committee, i Auuusta, Feb. 21th, 1858. j Gentlemen: I have received the commu-1 ideation you have had the kindness to address me, in behalf of the Medical College of Georgia. This testimonial of approbation has, I am sure, been prompted more by the partiality of my young friends, than by an extraordinary merit of my own ; qnd yet I am free to say that no compliment has ever been more grateful to my feelings, for I see in it the evidence that my feeble efforts to be useful have not been altogether un- 1 appreciated. Hooking upon your request, that 1 publish a “System of Diagnosis and Practice of Surgery,” as an earnest of tha indulgence with which the work would bp received, much of the reluc-1 tance I might feel in undertaking sol important and delicate a task, will be I removed. I will, therefore, cheerfully! accede to your wishes at as early a date as my leisure hours may permit. Be pleased gentlemen, to tender to I the dass the expression of my affec-! donate regard, anti believe me over,! your friend and obedient servant, jL. A. Degas. I Congressional.

Mr. Douglas's resolution of the ttb of February, calling for information upon | Kansas affairs, was taken up, and Mr. Douglas made a speech. The Kansas being under considera tion, Mr. Collamer continued bis remarks of yesterday. Mr. Douglas's resolution was debated for an hour, when the Kansas State bill was resumed. Mr. Pugh moved to amend the bill by authorizing the people of Kansas to alter or abolish the constitution and substitute another, provided it be in accordance with republican principles The House resumed the consideration of the bill compensating clerks, &c., up on which a long and uninteresting dis cussion ensued. The bill for the restoration of naval ' officers affected by the action of the re tiring board, was discussed by Mr. Da ' vis, of Md., against, and Mr. Miles, of S ■ 0., in its favor. The bill was discussed 1 until the adjournment. Central America.

Mrs. Granger though a widow,had so I preserved her youthful freshness and ! bloom that at thirty seven she might readily have been mistaken for ten years younger,but for one little eiremn stance. This was a daughter, well grown and looking full nineteen, the age which she had really attained.— Mrs. Granger, like most widows had no objection to a second marriage ; but who would think of addressing a wid ow with a daughter of marriageable ago ? Mary Granger was a sensible, con siderate girl,and deyseil away to reme dy this embarrassment. Early in June, mother and daughter were discussing the point where they should go for the summer. “ I-am for Saratoga,” said the moth-; er. “ And I for Newport,” said Ma ry- But think of the walks, the mineral waters, and all the attractions of the Springs 1” “So 1 do. They are all well enough in their way. But I like best to be at the sea-side. They have such delight ful hops at the Ocean House. Be sides, there is ttie beach and daily bath. ” “ We can't go to both places, ” | said Mrs. Granger, in a tone of inde ! cision. “ Why not?” asked Mary. “ The season is so short it would ; scarcely bo worth while. Besides, it : would be so much trouble to go from one place the other.” “ Yon don't understand me mother ; I have a better plan to propose. You like Saratoga. There is no reason why yon should not spend the season there. I like Newport. X can go there." “ You would not go alone ?" “No ; Mrs. Bickford is going in a : few days. She shall be my chape jron. ” I “ But it would seem singular for us to I separate.” “Not at all,mother. It will be suppos ed that you go to Saratoga for your health, while I, having received an in vitation to go to Newport, choose that 1 place in preference.” Mrs. Granger finally acceded to this j proposition. It struck her at once that : Mary's absence would be favorable to : her in more than one way. So, after a j feeble opposition she yielded, j Merely adding that the first of the sea i son found mother and daughter at Sara ; toga and Newport, we pause for a mo- I ment to introduce two new dramatis per : mia\ In a well appointed room in tire Astor ' House, New York, sat two gentlemen. ! Giving the priori ty to ago, wc will speak j of tlie oldest firs' . Mr, Ueoffry Ta box was turned of for ty but was a well looking man still,hut] j grey in spots, or would have been but | ' for the assiduous use of n certain hair restorative, the miraculous effects of I which may be rc ul in detail in any of j the daily papers. His youthful appear-! I ance was increased by liis dress, which' ! was in the height of the fashion. ; The younger man was tall and well j made and probably two or three and twenty. He bore sufficient resemblance ] to his companion to lead to tire supposi j tion. which need was correct, that he bore to him the relation of son. He was known as Edward Tarbox. “Ned,” said the parent, languidly tossing aside the cigar which he had been smoking, “ I have been thinking of you for the last fifteen minutes.” “ An evidence of paternal interest as gratifying as it is unexpected,” return ed the man, smiling. “May I ask to what thoughts I have b-.cn fortunate enough to give rise? “I was thinking how confoundedly old you were getting t« he Neil." “Thank you father ; Ibud'nt begun to feel troubled on that sco.e.” “ Don’t call me father it's vulgar.— Besides, who wants it thrown at him, that he has got a son that l ooks looks | as old as he does ?” I “Really, 1 think you exaggerate a , little. 1 have no occasion yet for hair dye : which, if I am not mistaken yon have , been using for the last ten years.” “Hush, Ned do he prudent. I wouldn’t ! have the secret known for the world. It ! would ruin my prospects.” “How do you mean, fath—,l mean i Mr. Tarbox?” “My hopes of marrying a rich’ wife, I you dog—giving you a second mother, j How would you like that?” “ I fancy i should he a very devoted | son, if she were pretty, hut if sh*i is a 'scraggy old maid, you must excuse me.” “ A scraggy old maid? I blnslf for] ( you Ned. Do you have so poor an idea [of my state, as to imagine I, your fath | —.(well never mind about that.) Do I you think I would sacrifice myself to one of that class ?” "Not unless she is a female Croesus.” ' “Right, my dear Ned. You have hit the nail on the head. I knew you would do me justice. However, Ned, as the subject lias been introduced, we might as well disscuss it farther. To be frank with you, you are my chief em barrassment.'' “ I?” “ Now don't look so astonished. Os course you are. I don’t mean to say you not a very nice young man—" “ That’s equivocal.” “ Well, then very estimable, and all that sort of tiling; hut really I wish you weie somebody else's son.” “ Thank you for the compliment ” “ Now don’t get foolish, Ned. fear me through. The fact is, as! intimated a little while ago, you are so contended old thaf it naturally leads peopl • to think I am a second Methusaleh, which of course, is very annoying. Now. if you were only eight or ten rears old, for example.” “ I should be delighted to oblige you and if you will only let me know how I am to bring myself back to that age, I will consent, on the express condition, however, that I am to be spared the flogging attendant to that age.” “ Is there any other way that I can oblige you ?” “ Yes, by forgetting for the next six months that I am your father.” “ With pleasure.” “ In that time we shall both have an opportunity to fall in with a suitable match at the watering-places, and, by employing a proper degree of manage ment, may both make our fortunes.” “ A bright idea, father. I beg your pardOh, I should have said; Mr. Tarbox. But as there is said to be j some resemblance between ns, Jt is es sential that we should move in different orbits.” “ Os courre." ■ * Well, of course one wi!) go to Sara toga. and the other to Newport. How shall we decide ?—Have you, any prefer ence? ” “ None; it is quite immaterial.” “ Suppose we toss up a cent and let that decide for us,” “A cent! I never carry any of the vulgar coin about me; say a gold piece.” “So I would, but unluckily have none with mo. Will you lend me one?" Really, I rather think I am out, just at present.” “ Then I believe we must take a cent, after all. Which will you have—head or tails?” “ Tails, Ned ? lam shocked to heat you use such a vulgar expression. Say extremities.” “ Very well. Heads or extremities?” “Heads; and by the way, let heads mean Newport.” “ Agreed. I will throw. There, I have lost, as I always do ” “ I go to Newport, then,” said Mr. Tarbox, senior. “ And I go to Saratoga,” said Mr. Tar -1 box junior. “And for the six months, you will remember, I disown you as a son, und release you from all filial obligations, unless during that time I contract a for tunate alliance, after which I shall be hap py to introduce you to your mother-in law.” “That is understood. Good-bye, old boy." "Ned, I will thank you never on any occasion, or in any connection, to speak of me as old." “ Excuse me, I forgot myself.” To he sure. You see your’e getting so confounded old yourself, Ned, and age and forgetfulness go together. Good by, and good luck ? This day six months at any rate, we’ll meet here.’’ [TO BE CONCLUDED TO-MORROW.] Cotmnmial Intelligence. !

A woman may say what she likes to you without danger of being knocked down for it. She can take a snooze after dinner, while her husband has to go to work. She can dress herself in neat and tidy calicoes for a dollar, which her hus band lias to earn and fork over. She can go forth in the streets without being invited to treat at every coffee-house. | tike can paint her face if she is too pale, I and flour it if too red. She can wear j corsets if too thick, other fixings if too i thin. She can eat, drink and be merry,! | without it costing her a cent. She can i get divorced from her husband when when she sees one she likes better. And ! see can get in debt all over, until lie ' warns the public not to trust her on his : account any longer.
