Among the thousand and one excuses urged to rebut the appeals of newspaper agents, the following recently told us by one of our last year drummers, “heads ’em all A considerate knight of St. Crispin, whose mission is somawhat congenial with that of the editor, since both cater to the understanding of their fellows— was politely invited, when the Dispatch first started, to subscribe for it. “It’s meself that would take the pa per, sure,” said he, “but the wee thing is not large enough to wrap up a pair of boots, at all, at all.” This was a settler—and the said agent hadn’t divil a word to say. Since that time the paper has been enlarged, and a pair of boots that could not be enveloped in its ample pages now. would be hard on creeping insects. » Respcctnbly Connected. v An exchange paper notices the arrest of a young man implicated in some crime, and says it refrains from giving names as the individual is “ respectably connected.” It is time that the press should cease to he a respecter of persons, and deal with crime on its own deserts, and not according to the position of the family to which the offender belongs. “Kick him —he’s got no friends ” —is the motto of the world toward the crim al of low position, while fine cloth, and fine kin, and money, prevent the ex posure of many ajgenteel villian, and shield many an obdurate neck from the embrace of the halter. In every town and city in the land,offences that“smcll to heaven.” are passed over in silence— not even gazetted as items of city news —because the parties are “respectably connected.” This is all wrong—it is a subservience entirely at variance with the true standard of elevated journalism. A fear of exposure is oue of the strongest preventives of crime—and when an offence becomes current in tire court room or on the street, it is a subject of legitimate news paper publicity, and the press that chronicles it subserves the public good I and should be sustained i,by the lovers of law and order. We are no friends of low personal abuse, scurrility or that licentious journalism that gloats on de-1 tails of crime and social corruption—but i as|i legitimate medium of popular influ ence, the press may and should chroni cle the results of false education,vicious influences, and contempt for law, and this is one of the channels in which we have marked out a higher and bolder path as a newspaper. If offenders do not wish the notricty of printers ink, let them avoid offences —respect the rights of their fellows and obey the law. ——**•-• Georgia Items. Thomas Thomas, the murderer who j recently escaped from Lee county jail, has been re-captured. At at an election in Yellow Creek Dis trict, Dawson county, last week, a diffi culty occurred between Ciias. Clark and Lewis Green, in which the latter was shot, and will probably not recover.— Clark made his escape. The Commencement exercises of the! Reform Medical College, at Mocon. I took place last Tlrusday, when the de- j gree of M. D. was conferred upon twen- j ty-one young men. |*f The .-Eolean Minstrels played at i Greensboro’ last Friday and Saturday nights. The Gazette, of that place, speaks very complimentary of the per- j - formance of this young and talented company. Cure for Chapped Hands. Most of our juveniles during the winter! season are troubled with chapped hands ; j for tire benefit of mothers, whoare obli-, ged to listen to their endless complaints, I we publish the following recipe for chapped hands. Take 3 drachms of camphor gum, 3] do. white beeswax, 3 do. spermaceti, HI ounces olive oil—put them together in I a cup on the stove where they will melt j slowly and form a white ointment in a j few minutes. If the hands lie affected anoint them on going to bed, and put i on a pair of gloves. A day or two will j suffice to heal them. HP The New Orleans (Lap Delta says; that Mr. Clark, the overseer of Mr. j Plant's plantation in Concordia Parish, I has attempted to measure the girth of a cypress tree thereon, with a tape line, j sixty feet long, and could not “quite come it.” P. T. Pa its cm (says the New York correspondent of the Charleston Courier ) is not at all overcome by his troubles. : He is again actively at work and labor- j ing with all his skill and humbug in the management of the Museum.

Erelong he will, doubtless strike upon some novel scheme j by which he can again mount the lad- i der of fame and fortune. His adversi ties have taught him prudence, and in future he will take advantage of a very painful experience. , Fight.

Adjourned until Monday. The Committee on Revolutionary Claims have prepared an interesting re port to accompany their bill, giving to lineal descendants of Revoli tionary Of ficers the pay for life which was granted them during the revolution by the Con tinental Congress, hut subsequently commuted by five years full pay, part of which was paid iu Continental mon ey, and the rest never paid. The bill provides a reduction of commutation actually paid, and is in many respects similar to the one passed by the House as its last session. Washington, March s. —The move ment in the Senate towards enacting a general Bankrupt law,excites considera ble atteu lion. It is regarded as a quasi administration measure. It is said cor porations will be included in its provis ions. Its object is to piotect debtors and creditors, and regulate commercial transactions throughout the Union. — Members of all parties appear to favor the measure. A Legislative built Capital. A Kansas correpondent of a St. Louis paper writes as follows of the late Free State Legislature The grand feat of j’ the season was the location of the capi tal. Leavenworth, Lawrenc and Tope ka were the contending points, but in each of these there was hut little chance for speculation. A plan was concocted and carried into execution to lay off a capital, in which each member should ; bo au original stockholder. This was i done i>rior to any vote being taken on , , the subject. Upon taking the first in formal vote, llinneola came into exis- I tence (it had never been heard of before) 1 and had one vote, the balance being j very scattering. Atthe next balloting, Minneola had more votes ; at the next, ! more still —, and so on, until she ob tained the requisite majority. Every member who voted for Minneola has sixteen shares in the same. We have ■ sa n ome ait towns in Ivans is, InitMin necla surpasses them all. And where is it ? the people ask. Upon the naked prairie, half way between Lawrence arid nowhere. Who own the town ? The members of the Free State Legislature of Kansas own above two-thirds, and hold the balance in trust, to be used in buying out the next Legislature. A plat of the town is already litho graphed. It makes a good show, and contains the State House and other pub lic buildings, together with numerous dwellings scattered here and there over the whole fourteen hundred acres. The only thing in the shape of a habitation upon the town site at present, is a lone tree, containing a crow’s nest. The Governor will have to roost on that tree, when he moves his office and ar chives in March, according to law, in his case provided. Tile Money Glut. | In the language of Wall street, there jis a glut in the moiiey market. The j j Banks cannot obtain enough good pa- j 1 per to meet their ability to discount, | and the private discounting houses are puzzled to find profitable employment ! for their funds. The money glut is j even greater in London than here ; and j at last dates, first-class bills were read j ily negotiated at one half of one per | cent, discount. This state of the mo j ney market gives animation to the stock j j market, but it indicates an unhealthy j | condition of business. The capital I ! which should be flowing through all the j i arteries of trade, commerce, and indus- j I try, giving health and activity to busi-! j ness enterprise, and employment to la j bor, lias been drawn back into the great ! financial centres until its accumulation | becomes oppressive. But this conditren of things, the natu- j ! ral result of tire panic, cannot long con | tiiiue, and when this accumulated capi-j tal begins to circulate again freely j through all the channels-of trade and j industry, new life and new vigor will be imparted to business enterprise, and labor will find abundant and profitable employment. There is one satisfactory thought sug gested by the money glut. It proves that there is abundant capital in the country to carry on its legitimate trade, and all legitimate works of material ! improvement. It is not money that we j want, hut a proper use of the money j i that we have, to revive our prosperity. | ! There is plenty of money in the country j to employ, and plenty of food to feed | every willing worker in the land ; and \ ,if our capitalists and merchants and ! manufacturers will use their means and | tlieir opportunities wisely and well; j they maj' make the close of 1858 as I prosperous and promising, as the close I of 1857 was disasterous and discourag ing.- New York Sun. The Maker of the Infernal Machine. The shells used in the attempt to give the Emperor and Empress of France, their quietus, it has been accertain?d, were manufactured by a Mr. Joseph Taylor, an ingenius mechanic of Bir mingham, England. They were made j to the order of a mail who had been in- | traduced to him by a respectable Bir mingham manufacturer, as “his friend i Mr. Allsop.” It is thought to have ! heen innocently done by Taylor, as he , spoke of the matter after their delivery, in October last, and enquired at the Enfield government manufactory of small arms, if any instrument had been invented in which such projectiles were j used. l - m ? ‘ ' ; - V-r' j The London Times compiains, “Her Majesty is no safe guide. Her disregard of Lent is proverbial.” And now she has “held her first royal drawing-room after her [daughter's marriage, on the j day of the martyrdom of the blessed King Charles I.” Many rejoice, how-: ever, at her disposition to sweep away ; this and other memorials of ancient par-! ty strife, and for an order in council to I withdraw the last shadow of a pretext j for reading services which have been i generally discontinued for many years, ! and which would outrage the feelings j of all parties in the Church and the Commonwealth. Exciting Incident. The following item is from a late English journal : A few evenings ago, as the play of Jesse Verc was being pefonned at Wool whieh Theatre, and when a scence in the third act had been reached,in which a “ terrific struggle ” for the possession i of a child takes place between the fond mother and two “hired ruffians,” aj large Newfoundland dog, which had by j some means gained admittance to its owner in the pit, leaped over the heads | of the musicians in the orchestra, and ffew to the rescue, seizing one of the as sassins, and almost dragging him to the j ground. It was with difficulty remov- j ed, and dragged off the stage. The dog j which is the property of the chief en gineer of her Majesty’s ship Buffalo, has been habitually accustomed to the so- j ciety of children, for whom he has, on j many occasions, evinced strong proof of; affection.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR- I MAL. —The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach j has lost the power of duly converting food into a I l life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single; : course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric j fluid re acquired its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to j the sufferer, while his digestive organization was j paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the j wholesome revolution created in the system, the ! basis of activity, st rength and health, i The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the i acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-dolorcux j or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter- j j rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with ; | paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that! i terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of I nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain ! or disability arising from the unnatural condition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo ticn and thought—derives immediate benefit from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it are unanimous iu declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the hands o! medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite. While it renews the strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid materia which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. If long lile and the vigor necessary to its en joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed ot' precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to either sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn man of business, the victim of nervous depres sion, the individual sull'.ring from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ will all find immediate and permanent relit f from j the u-e of this incomparable renovator. To j those who have a predisposition to paralysis it , will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible malady. There are many I perhaps who have so trifled with their cons tit u- j lion that they think themselves beyond the reach j of medicine. Let not even those despair.
