Advertisements lor the Evemxg Dispatch must i fee handed in by eleven o'clock in the forenoon, in •filer to appear the same day. The heavy pres sure of advertisements upon the columns of our paper will not admit of their reception after the hour named. LOCAL MATTERS. (if' We respectfully ask pardon of Prof. Fowler and our readers for the j utter nonsense which the types made in ; our notice of his lecture on yesterday. ; The printers say we write a had gfC.and the paragraph in question was not i ‘•proved.” "Taming children” should . have been braining, and “practical limbs” i should have been practical hints. Our readers cannot realize the difficulty of j preventing errors in an evening paper. We are obliged to go to press early, in j the midst of the hurry of receiving tele- j graphic dispatches, local items and ad vertisements, and there is frequently no time left to read proof. jiff Go to the United Ktates Hotel at i ten o’clock to-night and get a free fish chowder, done up in Clark s best style, i Matrimony. Prof. Fowrer did not deliver his lee-1 lure last night, as previously announc ed. It was postponed, on account of the inclemency of the weather, until 8 o’clock this evening, at which time the Professor will lecture upon the in teresting subject of Matrimony, or Love, —its Laws and Power over Human Des tiny ; Selection ; Courtship ; its Fatal Errors and Right Management; and Married Life—its Quicksands, and how to render all Marriages llappy ; full of home truths. The theme is a popular ; one, ajtttin the hands of Prof. Fowler, j should draw a crowded house. Admis sion only 25 cents. River Sews. The Iron Company’s steamer W. H. j Stark left yesterday morning for Savan-1 nail. The steamer Augusta is expected to-morrow morning. The river is iu_ fine boating order. - * w A correspondent ot tire Savannah j Georgian, writing from Augusta on yes terday afternoon —rather a fast youth we should say—says he dined ou that big gobbler at the United States, and ’’ took the local puffs of the Dispatch ns dessert.” Too many hulls in our paper yesterday to make it palatable, to most folks. Perhaps the writer is "Hing-; li.-li” —and used to carnivorous diet? who knows ? |ff” The Charleston Courier has veceiv- ! eda telegraphic dispatch from Hon. Ed- j ward Everett, dated Tuesday, which j says : “I will speak in Charleston on the 18th of April; if you can, arrange for mo at Savannah and Augusta for the next week.” *.■».. The Weather. March falsified the old adaga this time: for it not only came in like a lion, but went out like a lion, giving us a parting growl last night that would have done credit to the monarch of the African desert in hisangriest mood. Af ter a spell of delightful Spring weather, the atmosphere became quite cool on Tuesday night, and yesterday we had ■succession of showers, with a blustering wind, which became quite fierce after ■dark. The above is from the Savannah Setcs, and to its observations touching the j •lose of March, we, as an Augusta sliiv eror, can feelingly say “Dirro to Mr. Burke.” April made her advent this morning in a very impolite manner, whistling and blowing into the very nostrils of Spring in tlie coldest con •eivabki way. The geuy. godt'o.t yet waves her gu lauds patiently before the i rude approach of her handmaid, and they have not suffered from her vio lence. Ranis Resumption In fieorgia. The Savannah Republican has been advised from a reliable source, that the Hanks of Savannah and Augucta have resolved unconditionally, to resume specie payments on the first of May. This arrangement seems to have been made, independent of the course pursu ed by Charleston and the Carolina Banka. While the evidence it affords of the sol vency and good condition of the Banks of the two leading commercial centres of our State, is very gratifying, there , (coin to be considerations which render concert of action witli the Banks of our sister State and city, of very great im- \ portanee One leading argument urged upon .the banks by our merchants, us a reas< n for suspension, was the inconvenience 1 : of a mixed currency ; the b ; lls of Car- 1 olina entering-very largely into the cir- ( .ulating medium of our people. This ; ■inconvenience will beuponusin its worst j form, if our banks resume before those ■ of Carolina. 1 And we see no consideration which I lenders resumption at so early a day at all imporrant. For all practical purpo- , scs the banks arc fulfilling the wants of i the people on a specie basis already.— * Exchange is at a rate entirely satisfae- , tory to all—they comply with all indi- t v'dual necessities for specie, and there ' is no clamor, or lack of confidence on , khe part of the public. Indeed public ji expectation has not looked for resump tion earlier than July, and we have no doubt that our business men, toward whom the banks of our city have, we are proud to say, acted most generously —will be as earnest in their desire to ! avoid the evils of a mixed currency, ' caused by a lack of concert among the banks in resuming, as they were that they should suspend to avoid similar inconvenience. We indulge these re flections without any knowledge as to the intention of the banks of Charles ton in reference to resumption. How Hoosler Whipped the Tiger. | Some years ago, I was in a gambling ! house in Cincinnati, a silent looker on at a game of faro. In those days such | operations were carried on rather open jly, and almost under the eyes of the j authorities, with unbarred doors, so I that any one could walk in, cither in 1 the capacity of a better, or a mere spec alator. In the latter capacity I found | mvseif, near midnight, when the door !of the den opened. Just as the game ! began to flag, and not a sound was i heard but the click of the checks, and ] the rattle of some dishes a darkey was ■ placing on a table, in walked a tall, rawboned, country-looking chap, in a grey satinet coat and a coon-skin cap He walked right up to the only vacant I place at the table, and, drawing from a iside pocket an enormous calf skin wal i let, which looked as if it might contain [at least a thousand, in fives and tens, addressed the dealer: “ Look here, Mister, I’m going to | fight this Tiger up to the nines! Un derstand me, I alters fight to the death: that is, until I break you or you break me!” [We must here inform the reader un learned in the mysteries of gambling, that playing at faro is technically term ed by the sporting fraternity, "bucking at the tiger."’] “ Very good,” said the dealer, “ you are one of the kind we like to deal for.” And his eyes fairly danced at the cer tainty of depleting the plethoric look ing pocket book. "But, understand me,” continued the rough customer, “ there is one thing j yon must first agree to; and that is, if you break me, yon must give me mo ney enough to carry me home.” “I’ll do it,” said the "leg." j “ Yes! yes! yes!” responded the ! entire party. Here the darky announc !ed supper, and the keeper of "the ti ger” announced a recess for half an j hour. The crowd went into the good j things prepared, and Rough was not a ! whit behind the rest. He dived into the venison, the oyster pie, and the “ chicken fixing,” until he could eat no more with any degree of safety to him self—not forgetting to wash down the whole with liberal potations of brandy. Refreshment over, labor bade fair to commence in right down earnest. The dealer took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and seated himself. Rough squared himself at the table, and again drew the ponderous wallet. All eyes were now tinned upon him: for spec tators, patron * of the establishment, and even bankers themselves looked for a tall game. Rough drew from one of I the pockets of the capacious wallet a i greasy and rather suspicions looking | live dollar bill, and call d for the worth | of it in chips. After scrutinizing it a moment, the dealer tossed it into his j drawer, and passed over a stack of ten chips to Rough. He next gave the jviirds sundry scientific “flirts,” placed |them in the box. and announced "All Ready !” Rough placed his ten chins on the ace, and the deal went on. Some eigiil or ten cards were drawn out, when ail ace came to view on the top of (he box, and tlie dealer immediately ; put ten more chips on fop of Rough’s • pile. Rough let the twenty chips lay (upon the ace, and it was not long be fore another one made its appearance, hut tliis time it fell by the side of the box, and the dealer “raked down” the entire pile. He then waited a few mo ments in expectation that Rough would open the pocket book again, but that individual continued resting his chin on the palm of his hand, and gazing abstractedly on the ace. “Well,” said the "leg,” aint you j going to bet any more ?” ! “Nary red—l’m broke—flat!” said Rough. I The “leg” laid back in his chair, jand in a tone of the most profound as :toni.shment said, “The deuce you are ! i And I pledged myself to give you mo ney enough to carry you home, in case you got broke!” '• You did that same, old boss ?" “ Where do you live ?" “ At Brownsville, up the river.” “ Wir'd, ivill it cost to take you there?” “At the present stage of water, I thing I can get up for about fourteen dollars.” Suclt a shout as went up at this junc ture was never before heard within the walls of a Faro-room !—while with great good humor the “leg” counted out the fourteen dollars. “ My friend,” said he to Rough, “it is not every day one meets a patron like you. Uo and help your, elf to an other drink of brandy and water, and a cigar. Whenever you come to town again, give us a call Call often—yon will find the latch-string out. I wish you a safe journey. Give my respects to your wife and children. Bye, I've! ’ Rough didn't shrink one iota from his railery, hut took the proffered drink ai d cigar. “I say,” said he, as he held the door ajar, '■ 1 wish you better luck with the next grecnlookiug customer tiiat comes along; but before you make suclt a bargain witli him, jest ascertain where he lives, and the size of his pile!'' —and so saying, he disappererl amid the guffaws of the crowd, in which the deal er himself heartily joined. Land Salts in Kansas, The President jpts issued iiis procla mation, No. 601, which appears in this morning’s paper, for Bales of public laniti, at the land offices at Kick upon and Lecoiriptun. Kansas Territory, in July embraces 798,686 acres, and that on the l'Jtn, 701,082 acres Tim sale at Le Compton on the 6th July will embrace 750,410 acies, and that on the Hllii 056,511 acres; making an aggregate of 2,912.231 acres. These will l )e the first public sales of Government lamia it, the Territory -National Inlellgencer. Unexplained, the above would not ht correctly undeislood by the general reader. I here have heretofore been several Government bales of lands in Kansas, but they were not “ Govern ment lands ” The lands heretofore sold were Indian “ Trust Kinds. ’ winch the Government was bound by trea‘y to sell to the highest bidder fur cash for , the benefit Iff the Indians ; they were [never open to preemption, and laud warrants would not He taken in pay , ment. The lands now advertised be long to the Government in fee simple, ire subject to pre-emption by actual set tlers, and may be paid for in laud-war rants. We presume, however, that nearly all of them are already covered by pre-emption claims ; in fact we are certain that tills is the case, hut specu : lators can slili operate largely at the sales by side bargains witli the “set tlers. ’ We look for an advance in land warrants as a consequence of the ordering ol these large sales ; fur every i tract offered will be eageriy purchased by squatters or speculators.
