Gening Hispatclj. AUGUSTA, G-A: March 33, 185 S. |gf The total decrease in receipts of cotton at all the ports, compared with last year, is now 265,334 bales. Matteson to be Let Alone. It is understood that the committee appointed to investigate the charges against Mr.O, B. Matteson, of New York, will report against any further action being taken, as the majority agree that the House has no power or jurisdiction in the ease. **•— An interesting religious revival meet ing is held daily in Burton’s Chambers street theatre, New York. Itwas stated inthemeeting on Wednesday that Edwin Forrest, the actor, has lately been con verted, and that the Boston theatre is about to be sold. — Couldn't See the Petticoals. N. P. Willis, in his ldlewild letter to the last Home Journal, says during a lata three day’s visit to New York, he dm-i get sight of a single red petti coat. The reason he assigns was that the weather was so cold that the hand which should have lifted the disclosing skirt was buried in a muff. destructive fire occurred in Pittsburg on the morning of the 18th inst., destroying four of the extensive cannon foundries of Messrs. Ksarp & Wade. flf Mr. Maxwell, residing near Bradstown, Ky.,'was found dead on the morning of the 17th inst. It has been discovered since that he was murdered by his own negroes, one of whom has confessed his participation in the shock ing crime. Attempted BoiiUeiy at Willards Hotel, The Washington Union gives the fol lowing particulars of the attempted robbery in the room of the Turkish of ficers, at Willard’s Hotel in Washing ton : We leam that yesterday, soon after the Turkish officers and their party had sat down to dinner, at Willard’s Hotel a servant, sent to one of their bedrooms : with a cot, found a chair placed against the door, inside. Pushing the door open, the servant entered the room,and , saw a strange man making his exit. A large double trunk was open, and the contents of one half of it were strewed around the floor. Instantly suspecting that all was not right, the servant gave thealann, but the thief made his es cape unseen by' the vigilant officer al ways on duty below stairs. The rogue , gained no booty before he was discover ed, but in the other undisturbed half of the trunk were the jeweled decorations , of honor of the Pasha, and two thou- , sand dollars in gold.

The Air Lire Knllroatl. Jefferson, Jackson Co., ) March 19,1857. j My Dear Dispatch Having just returned from the Second Annual Con vention of tlie stockholders of the Air Line Kailroad Company, at Gainsville, I conclude you would like a report of its proceedings. The company, controlled by what motives I will not at present divulge, have decided to locate the road byway of Gainesville and Carnesville, running many miles above the survey through Jackson, as originally proposed. So far from being an “Air Line,’’ the location fixed upon will he as crooked' as a rain bow, and pass thiougli a country of far less resources than old Jackson. The amount of stock subscribed by the up per route is about $750,000, and the amount necessary to complete the road is, according to their own estimate, sl,- 500,000. So only one half the “wind work” is accomplished; and yet the con vention recommend the “locution of the entire line of the road preparatory to letting out contracts as soon as practicable. ” The Directory have an Herculean work before them to raise the requisite amount, and evi dently depend largely on faith to re move the mountains before them. It is believed that they have not improved the prospects of success by so wide a de viation from an air line. I would re sjKctfully suggest that the next Legis lature be petitioned to change its name, to the “Rainbow Railroad.” The following are the officers for the ensuing year: Mr. J. Norcross, of At lanta, President. E. W. Holland and L. E. Bleckley, of Atlanta, Thos. H. Jones, of Gwinnett, Minor W. Brown, of Hall, Thos. Mon is, of Franklin, and William R. Pool, of Hart county, Direc tors ; and E M. Johnson, of Hall, Geo. Kellogg, of Forsyth, Raymond Sanford, of Dawson, and J. W. Pruitt, of Frank lin, advisory Directors. Jackson. Captain W. C. Pratt has recently re turned from the Isthmus of Tehuante pec, and reportß that $200,000 will put the road in good order for business, and is exerting himself to bring the bellige rent parties together and finish the road, which, when done, would secure the mails, treasure, and travel, against ail other combinations or routes to Cali -0 forma. . Spiecial Correspondence of the Dispatch. Lctlfr from Savannah. v The City of Parks—Belle Brittan vs. Savan nah— Who is Belle Brittan f— The Striven House —/ ‘rtf. Fouler s Lectures-Tiic Hor ences—Thc Adriatic —The 'Weather. Savannah, March 20, 1858. j. Dear Dispatch: —Here lam ill Savan k nah—the Georgia seaport—the city of Oglethorpe. Charleston iscalledthePal metto city—New Orleans the Crescent * City—Philadelphia the Quaker! ity, c c I suggest that Savannah he called the s City of rarks—for I have nowhere else , seen so many. They are a very great i convenience—as breathing places-which t last are two scarce in many of our crowd i ed commercim cities. Aou have hut little need for such things in Augusta— with your broad and beautiful streets. ' I have never yet seen anything more 5 beautiful than your Green street in * spring and summer, with thousands of 1 bright little faces lit up with smiles, and ■ merry little voices caroling their songs 3 of joy under the glorious shades of its magnificent oaks. But I bad forgotten that I set out to r speak of Savannah. I see that “Belle Brittan,’’ who writes gossipping letters 1 for the New Orleans Picayune, was not 5 pleased with Savannah. Belle was “dis . appointed”—actually disappointed! The . 1 beauties of Savannah have been over ' i praised. Like a belle with an “estab ‘ lished reputation,” everybody acknowl | edges her charms without stopping to analyse them. And so Belle Britan de termines to he different from anybody and actually stops to analyse the charms of an over praised city. “It is a sandy, silent, stagnant city ; and al most as ‘finished’ as the town of St. Albans, in England, where there has not been a house built in a quarter of a century.” Now Belle is either wilfully mendacious and slanderous here, or wo fully and inexcusably ignorant of facts. Savannah is not a noisy city, bnt is not on the other hand either silent or stagnant, as a glance at the trade will triumphantly show. That it is as fin ished as the town of St. Albans, is not true, as the new buildings going up on Bay street and in various other quarters | of the city, prove beyond a question.— Belle doubtless consoled herself with the thought that if it was not “finish ed’ ’ prior to her (liis) visit, it would be after the publication of tho letter con taining this startling intelligence. But we still exist, thanks to a kind Provi dence, and the general impression seems to prevail here that Savannah can stand one or two more visits even from “Belle Brittan.” i Ilut who is Belle Brittan ? Some of your readers may not know that the writer of these spirited epistles for the Picayune and other paper.-, is none other than Col. Hiram Fuller, tlie quondam editor of that Black Republican sheet— tlie New Yolk Mirror. The Colonel's "disappointment’’ may have resulted from two facts—one that himself and r his chum, Dr. Charles Mackay, were not universal favorites here ; the other that Savannah is a Southern city and its population are, many of them, the owners of darkies—Col. Fuller's special ’ friends and pets. Go along, Belle Britr | tan—the world is large enough—if you i don’t like Savannah, why for Hiavpn’s sake keep away from it. Speaking of Savannah and her im- j provements reminds me that I have a i word to say about one of our new insti- j tutions. Time was when the sojourner J in Savannah had good reason to * ‘growl’ ’ at the Hotel accommodations of the place. I well remember visiting the city i some years ago and stopping at the ’ principal iliouse—l will mention no names. It professed to be a first class t hotel—and so it was in price, hut I could not discover its claims to that ti tle in any other particular. But there is no reason for dissatisfaction now, and you may safely promise such of your readers as stop at the Rcriven House all the comforts and conveniences possible to be had at the best houses in the country. It is conveniently located, 1 elegantly furnished and the table is not to be surpassed anywhere. Its proprie- [ tor. Mr. J. B. Foley, is a gentleman of s some qualifications for his business.— |j Urbane and accommodating, he leaves “ no guest unattended to. liis personal t appearance is decidedly in his favor. Do you know, I think a landloui ought 11 to be the picture of good health and , good living. Such an one is our friend Foley, and to so great an extent that ' t they have actually made an Alderman ’ . of him—proof positive that lie must r have been well fed. , Prof. Fowler, the well know plire j- nologist, has been in Savannah during the week, lecturing to large and de t lighted audiences. Whatever may be the claims of phrenology as a science, there can he no doubt that Prof. Fowler , is thoroughly posted on the subject. | He has spent a lifetime in its study,and r his lectures are certainly among the j most interesting I ever heard on any . subject. He goes to Augusta from r here. , Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Florence have ’ been playing at the Athenieum since . Tuesday night to moderate houses only. Mrs. Florence is a sister of Mrs. Barney . Williams—and her acting after the , same style. The great difficulty is that . she overdoes everything. Her Yankee r girl for instance, is so intensely Yan , kee that it is inhuman. Mr. Florence s succeeds better in other kinds of Come > dy than in Irish and We wonder that he j gives so much of his attention to that . particular style, in which he can never . hope to rival Hudson or Collins. The I- Florences are to be succeeded by the j Keller Tiupe—who appear Monday night. I understand that Mr. Marchant has become the lesse of the Athenaium for the next season. I intended to say something about the run away Bark Adriatic —but have , already written more I fear than you will care to print. Besides our papers here have given all the particulars. We have had charming weather for a week past, but there arc appearances j of rain now. Yours, &c. Pulaski. • . , GrapcCutliiigt). Have you a choice grape cutting that you want to grow ! 1 hen go to the woods, dig some roots :- of a wild grape vine, cut them into - pieces of about six inches long, cut your t cutting into pieces of only one, oral d most, two buds ; insert the lower end, by the common cleft-grafting method, e into the piece of wild vine root; plant ii e in the earth, leaving the hud of the cut it ting just level with the top of the i- ground. Every one so made will grow and in two years become bearing plants! Strawberry Beds.—They should be kept free from weeds and grass, well watered when ill flower and when bear ing. To keep the ground always moist 1 and the fruit clean various methods are ' adopted, the favorite being a mulch of spent tan. It keeps down -the weeds, yields a tame acid, keeps the ground moist, and preserves the fruit from dirt t or mud. Very funny stories are told of the process of serving a call of the Senate, an hour or two after midnight, on Sen , tors who had gone home and to bed.— The Sergeant-at-Arnis, accompanied by carriages, rode around the city and col lected the deserters, peaceably if lie could, but forcibly, if lie must. Sam Houston was captured at the Kirkwood House, taken from his bed, and carried growling to the Capitol. When called upon for an excuse for his absence, he gravely requested tlio Senate to inform him what excuse it had to offer for the 1 outrage it had committed upon liis per , sonal rights, by dragging him from his : bed at that untimely hour. He protest ed that he would not he pacified till the I Senate apologized to him. Senator i Clay, of Alabama, kept the doors lock . ed, and defied the Sergcant-at-Arms— flatly refusing to obey the mandate. — Generally, however, the absentees sur i rendered themselves with a good grace, , and a quorum was obtained at 4 o'clock in the morning. ■«. - Tuf, Largest Room.—lt is stated that the largest room that was ever con structed is that in which the tobacco stores are kept in the London Docks. The room is said to cover nearly six acres, being, of course, under one roof! It is a curious circumstance, that this enormous apartment should be devoted to an article of mere luxury. Singular Fact. Out of 700,0000 Jews in the United States, only one is registered in the census ns a farmer. This is interpreted as one of the evidences of tlie singular isolation of the Jews, as prophesied in Amos 9: 9—“ For, 10, 1 will command and I will sift the House of Israel ' among all nations, like as corn is sifted j in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon earth.” —— .

' The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach ( has lost the pow. r of duly converting food into a | i life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single |. I course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric | fluid rc acquires its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, while his digestive organization was i paralyzed aud unstrung, becomes, under the 1 wholesome revolution created in the system, the 1 basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the j. acute, physical agony of Neuralgia. Tic-doloreux ' < or ordinary headachy afflicted with vague ter- I rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with ! paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that j tori ible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of | t nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain , or disability arising from the unnatural condition c oT the wonderful machinery which connects ef ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion 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 arc unanimous m ° declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that 11 woman has ever received from the hards of ( medical men. Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im- t< mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite. 11 While it renews the strength of the digestive 11 powers it creates a desire for the solid materia 1 which is to be subjected to their action. As an p ajTpetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. If long life and the vigor necessary to its en- e joyment arc desirable, this medicine is indeed of c preciou-- worth Its beneficial effects arc not confined to either d sex or to any age. ’me feeble girl, the ading tl 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 y will all find immediate and permanent relief from u the of this incomparable renovator. To fl those who have a predisposition to paralysis it n will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible milady. There are many P 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 ns it exists, without re lerenco to the causes, and will not only remove (j the di-order itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution \ LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush G of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil- - ity. hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofsclf-de s ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys- v pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous- t ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe- v males, decay of the propagating functions, hy ? c teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of i the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from i whatever cau-e arising, it is, if there is any reli- c ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute- \ ly infallible. j < CAUTION.—Dr. Morse’s Invigorating Cordial j has been counterfeited by some unprincipled j persons.

We take it for granted, as experiment has pro ven that diseases of the lungs are not generally the first cause of consumption, but a debilitated system, caused by the improper action of the liver, which reduces the power of the lun s to resist or throw off diseases caused by cold und irritation, leaving the lungs at the mercy of this disease, because the liver has incapacitated them from performing their proper action <>f throwing off diseased matter caused by cold. Thus to prevent consumption, cure the liver and keep the system strong enough to throw off slight diseases ol the lungs. There is not in the world a better liver reme dy or a cure for debilitated system than Dr. Sanford’s Invigorator, for it has been fully tried in a large and extended practice till its results are fully known, and now it Is offered as a tried remedy, and one that can be relied on.—Lan casUr Whig gTtto iptttrtminfnts. -<3<>N CE RT H ALL Second and Last Week !, COMMENCING MONDAY SIGHT, MARCIf »8,1857. > I SANDERSON'S Gigantic Illustrations .
