<®wrag iDispatcJ). AUGUSTA, GA: Wrdncßda? Evening, M«rell IT. IWSB. Georgia Item* At the term of the Superior Court of Crawford County, held last week, James Bevel was returned by the Grand Jury as guilty of the crime of Murder, for shooting W. W. Hammack and Geoboe Adams He was tried for the murder of Hammack, and found guilty, and sentenced by Judge Lamar, to be hung on Friday the 7th May: Mr. Obadiah Dumas was so badly burned on the night of the sth instant, at Station No. 0 on the Central Railroad as to cause his death the next morning.; He was a school teacher, had been iu . that county about two years and had a 1 farther in or near Forsyth, Monroe «ounty, Georgia. A son of Mr. B. D. Ivey of Baker Co., says the Milledgeville Recorder, about seven years old, got a grain of corn down his wind-pipe near four weeks since; and after an unsuccessful at tempt in that section to extract it, he brought his boy on Saturday last to Dr. Samuel G. White who opened the wind pipe, and extracted the grain with bui little difficulty, much to the relief ol the little sufferer. Ezekiel S. Candler, formerly Comp troller General, has been appointed by the President and the appointment con firmed by the Senate, Post Master in Milledgeville. Mr. C. will, we presume, enter upon his duties on tire first of next month. We learn that there is now a daily mail, each way, between Fort Valley and Hawkinsville. The handsome and spacious church recently erected by the Methodist con gregation in Eatontou, Ga., was dediua , ted to the service of Almighty God, on the 7th instant, by Bishop Pierce. The body of Robert Jameson was found in the river near Columbus on Sunday. It appeared to have been in the days.

In 1850 it had only 21,- 000. According to the weekly statement the number of emigrant* arrived at Castle Garden, New York, during the week ending March 10th was 185, mak ing a total of 4,942 since the Ist of Jan uary, against the 10,984 arrivals for the corresponding period of 1857. .«. Tub Work Goes On.—There was a rumor in New Orleans on Saturday, says the Delia, that one hundred and fifty Africans, just imported, had gone up Pearl river. The Della also hears of an offer to land cargoes on any part of the Mississippi coast, and says : “Thto im portatiun is hardly fair ; let Mississippi pass Hughes' bill, and Louisana pass Taylor's bill, so that rich and poor will have an equal chance to procure labor.” —— i*r On Saturday night last a negro belonging to Dr. Moouk of Sumracrfiehl Alabama, was found dead in the road having been stabbed in the left brest, Aft the jury of in niest said by a white xnan named Howard Campbell. —- ...

W | Slclglili.g In Comtantlnoplc. ■ A letter from Mr. Edward Peters, S. Vice Consul at Constantinople, to M i father, Rev. Dr. Peters, of New VS f. i dated January 30th, 1858, says: ,1 ‘-We have had thus far the sevell j winter that has ever occurred in CIH ! stantinople within the memory of th* ! oldest inhabitant. The snow is monl . than two feet deep on a level, and ha* ,| been almost continually falling for thirl jty day's. Yesterday Mr. Brown and my* II self achieved an exploit which has nevl si er before been accomplished in this | place, and which excited great admira i tion, and has fixed our names as enter ' | prising Americans. During the late • | war some one imported a sleigh made in |.| Albany, which has been here ever since on sale. We got it and fixed it up, put 1 two spanking black horses before it, >! covered with bells, and went to see all the Grand Turks at the Sublime Porte. , We had two guards before us to clear ’ the street, and a crowd of, I don’t know } how many, behind us, to look at us.— i The Turk's ware perfectly delighted.— n To close the performance, we passed up down before the Sultan's Palace, and and finished with great eclat. t The Capture ol* Yell, y The London Times publishes an in r teresting letter from its correspondent at Canton, from which we make the i following extract, describing the eap . ture of the Chinese Emperor, Yell : The longest chase must have an end. , At last the guides called a halt at the door of a third-rate yamun, which ap peared closed and deserted. ‘ The door ■ were forced open and the blue jackets were all over the place in a moment. It was evident that they were now on the right scent. The place was full of has tily packed baggage. Mandarins were running about, yes, running about; and at last one came forward and delivered himself up as Yell. But lie was not fat ( enough. Parkes pushed him aside, and hurrying on, they at lastspied a very fat j man contemplating tlje achievement of getting over the wall at the extreme , rear of the yamun. Captain Key took the fat gentleman round the waist, and the coxswain twisted the august tail of the Imperial Commissioner round his fist. There was no mistake now, this was the veritable Yeh. Instinctively j the blue jackets felt it must be Yeh, and they tossed up their liats and gave three rattling cheers. j. Yeh is by no means the hero people . thought him. He trembled violently ' when he was taken, hut strenuously de • nied his identity, and it was not till Mr. 3 Parks had several times had the satis faction and triumph of assuring his old enemy of his personal safety that he 1 grew composed. As soon, however, as he felt himself safe, all his arrogance .. returned. He poised himself magnifi cently in his chair. He laughed at the idea of giving up his seals, and also at the idea of his being led away. He would wait there to receive the men, - Elgin and Gros. ( They searched all his packages for papers, and found, among other things ’ the original ratifications of the treaties f with England, France and America; they were, as he intimated, too unim portant as documents to be sent to Pe " kin. The search lasted three hours.— t The news of the capture had been sent to headquarters; Col. Hocker was dis patched with a strong body of marines, J and Yeh again trembled as he entered 5 his chair a captive, r A Kccklcgg Man. i A man named Bill Far was killed on last Christmas day, at Tehama, Califor nia. Bill was a notable character in his way. The Red Bluffs Beacon says of him : Our readers will remember an adver tisement that appeared in our paper last spring, stating that Bill Farr would I light a grizzly bear, single handed, on the 4th of July, at Tehama, rfis life ( I seemed to be of no consequence to him. f ■ VVe have frequently heard him remark , that he would as soon he killed as not; ( and on one occasion we actually knew , of his standing up very coolly witli a , person as reckless as himself, each tak- ( ing a shot at the other's lmt at a dis- ] tance of fifty steps, as it remained on , his head. The result was that Bill’s! bat was shot through, and a small bunch! j of hair cut away, while the skin on the j, other man's cranium was laid bare for , three or four inches by Bill's half-ounce; j ball. Bill was a great terror to the In-,, dians, he having killed a great many in j; his time, some of whom, as he saidjj himself, he shot to see them fall. —- , French Spoliation Claims. | The Washington correspondent of ] 1 the Richmoi d .S’ou/A says : It is believed that a bill at last will l>e passed this session on the subject of the French spoliation claim. Greatef [ 1 forts are being made to attain this end, | 1 and it is reported that the President; will sendh, special message on the sub-j ject. A number of the cases have al ready been favorably adjudicated by the ■ court of claims. ‘ »«•»» ■ Fm thrr hum Mexico. A letter deted March 3, from a prom-! . inent politician in Mexico, and address ed to a distinguished Mexican in New Orleans, says that a great and decisive! battle was hourly cxpecteii to he fought | i between the liheralists under the com-1 - inand of Parrodi, and the revolutionists,! under Osollo. The hostile armies were | ' congregated around Celaya. Parrodi's! I forces amounted to 8000 men, and Os-1 olio's to 0000. In all the recent con-; 1 diets the liheralists had gained the ad- 1 vantage. Mr Gish, a leading merchant in Bed- 1 f rd county, Virginia, has committed wavy forgeries in Virginia, and left for uts unknown. The extent of the for '■s are estimated as high as $l5O - 1 000. i ■ “ * '■ , i •' * * : • | ' ! • .j : high and thick enough for three chari- I ots abreast.

Virtues of tire “Mail Slnmi-'-t'au it Perform Cures i Several wonderful stories of the cures performed by a “mad stone” belong ing to a family in Cleves, Ohio, are re lated by those who are conversant with the Riatter. It is a small sized stone, of a porous texture, and, it is said, will not adhere to any other tlesh wounds than those made by the bite of an ani mal that is mad. Those who have seen it assert that it sucks itself full, and then, like the leach, falls off. The virus matter is then extracted from the stone by boiling it in milk. A large circle of persons have the utmost con fidence in the curative properties of this stone, and several have come long dis tances, when bitten or wounded by ani mals supposed to be mad, to apply it, not to the wound itself hut to another made for the purpose in the part effect ed. Several remarkable cures are rela ted, but how well attested we do not know. Last week a farmer named John Brown, residing near Harrison, cut himself in the hand while skinning a cow and a calf that had died under such peculiar manifestations as to lead to the supposition that they were made The wound did not heal readily, and Mr. Brown made a trip to Cleves to try the virtues of the “ mad-stone.” A wound was made iu the hand adjoining the original cut, and the stone applied, and we arc assured that it adhered to the part effected for five hours, and then dropped off. To the believers in the “ mad-stone” the fact that it adhered to the wound furnished evidence that the cow was mad, that the virus matter had effected Mr. Brown, who returned home perfectly satisfied with the expe riment, and rejoicing in the belief that he, hail been saved from hydropho bia. - lin Kiiillini'iits of Bankruptcy. 'Hie first thing to do,my young friend, amusingly hints Dicken’s Household Words, when you start in life, is to set tle everything you possess upon your wife. Having done this legally and se curely, take a warehouse in a good situ ation, and begin to buy. That you may be under no alarm about your power to do this, I will explain, in a few words, the theory of trade. The greater part of goods manufactured are made by per sons with little capital, and they are compelled to forced sales to get bills of exchange for discount to pay for the raw material. The warehouse men who buy them are men of little or no ' capital, and they are compelled to hur ry sales to get bills for discount to pay the bills drawn by the manufacturers. : And so trade moves, one class continu ; ally pushing on another. The necessi ty "to sell is behind every man’s back; you, therefore, need lie under no con cern about your ability to buy. Before you have opened your doors a week, you will scarcely be able to keep the com mercial travellers out. Let it be hinted abroad —although it is not absolutely necessary for your success in failure— that your father-in-law is a person of property. It means nothing, but it will be useful in a variety of ways. \ •* *♦-» ♦ Tlie Mount Vernon Fund. i It appears that the ladies have al ' ready accumulated $75,000, which they 1 anticipate will soon be swelled to SIOO,- ! 00*..

FIRST SESSION. ■ Washington, March 13, 1858. SENATE. , After the transaction of business of . no public importance, the Senate re sumed the cor 'delation of the Kansas bill. Mr. Wade, of Ohio, said that the people of that State were alarmed at 1 the progress of the principles of despo tism which they thought they perceived connected with the administration of this government. He regretted that the question of slavery should be so of ten thrust upon the Senate, hut its enormous magnitude seemed to throw every other question in the shade. Un til it should be fairly settled one way or the other, he did not expect to hear much else discussed. A great deal had been said of northern aggression, but, in his judgement, the aggression had come from the south. A question of veracity sprung up between several Senators as to the agree ment respecting the Toombs Kansas bill, and for a time much spirit, if not ill-temper was exhibited. Mr. Wade, without concluding his remarks—being fatigued—yielded the floor for an adjournment. Mr; Pugh could not fee whv a colla teral matter should afford a sufficient reason for postponing the consideration of the hill, as moved by Mr. Broderick, j but he (Mr. Pugh) would defer to the wishes of his colleague (Mr. Wade.) Mr. Broderick’s motion prevailed yeas 20, nays 18. And the Senate then adjourned. The House was not in session to-1 day. Sptial Ufiticfs.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach has lost the power of duly converting food into a > life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single i course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the eufi>fer, while his digestive organization was . paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the wholesome revolution created in the system, the basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tie-doloreux j or ordinary headache, affiietod with vague ter rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with paralysis, {borne down and dispirited by that tori ible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from the unnaturnlcondition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member witli the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit from tbo use of this Cordial, which at once calms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Fcmalos who have tried it are unanimous in declaring the F.lixir to be the greatest boon that womin has ever received from the lmrds of 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' i which is to bo subjected to tlieir action. As an : ! appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. If long life and the vigor necessary to its cn ’ joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of preciou- 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 suffering from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ will all find immediatcand permanent relief from the U'*e of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible nnlady. There are many perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu tion that they think themselves beyond the reach of medicine. Let not even those despair. The Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re lerence to the causes, and will not only remove the di-order itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de s'ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous- I ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to so- J males, decay of the propagating functions, hys I teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of j the heart, impotency. constipation, etc., from j whatever cau- c arising, it is, if there is any reii* | ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute j ly infallible. | ' CAUTION.—Dr. Morse’s Invigorating Cordial j has been counterfeited by some unprincipled j persons.

J We take it for granted, as experiment has pro ven that diseases of the lungs are not-genera !y r| the first cause of consumption, but a debilitated e system, caused by the improper action of the liver, which reduces the power of the lunj.s to resist or throw oil’ diseases caused by cold irritation, leaving the lungs at the mercy of this r disease, because the liver has incapacitated • them from performing their proper action $f v throwing oil*diseased matter Caused by cold. ‘ Thus to prevent consumption, cure the liver and keep the system strong enough t< throw off slight diseases of the lungs. 1 There is not in the world a better liver reme dy or a cure for debilitated system than Dr. | 1 Sanford’s Invigorator, for it Ims been fully tried j , in a large and extended practice till its results | | are fully known, and now it Is offered as a tried i ?
