Staling Jlispatcf. AUGUSTA, GA: Monday Evening, April 3,1838. Newspaper Changes. Tlie Southern Georgian, published at Bainbridge, Ga., has been received. It is a very handsome sheet, and evinces a good share of editorial vigor and abili ty The Southern Dial, Montgomery, is about to change hands. The Pastors and People's Journal, Macon has been discontinued. Georgia Items. The Family Visitor says that Carter Shepherd, Esq., was seriously injured at his saw-mill about nine miles from Madison. He was attempting, with his right foot, to brush away the saw-dust which had gathered around a circular saw in rapid motion, when his foot was caught by the saw, and the outside ter ribly mangled, from the toes to the heel, penetrating deeper and deeper as it proceeded back, and greatly injuring the bone of the latter. Mr. Alexander Marshall, who killed Mr. Warren Suitoh in Fort Gaines, on Sunday last, was tried before Judge Kiddoo, at the Superior Court of Clay county, and acquitted on Wednesday. The case of Henry Spear, charged with the crime of negro stealing, was tried in Sumter, Superior Court, on Wednesday last. He was found guilty and sentenced by his Honor Judge Al len, to seven years imprisonment in the Penitentiary. This makes the fourth representative from this county during the present sitting of our Court. Hf Misther Patrick Hugh Johnston, quite verdant from Ireland, on seeing a Mulatto woman in company with a very black man wanted to know ‘ 1 how they blacked em ?" His aunt, Mrs. O'Driscol fainted. nr a writer in the Montgomery Mail says that a man named D earing has been travelling in West Alabama, as an Agent for the New Orleans Pica yune, and “ Deßuw's Review ” who ex pressed himself warmly against slavery and its extension. The publishers of these journals should be a little more careful whom they select to do busi ness for them. Skies Brightening. The manufacturing towns of New England are beginning to recover from the late financial prostration—mills and workshops are starting up all over the country. The Worcester Spy says that Messrs. Thayer, Houghton & Co., manu facturers of machinery, in that city, will resume business at an early dav, with a force of twenty-five hands. Their works have been suspended nearly five months. The Lvnn papers say that business matters continue to improve, and it be gins to look like old times again in that city. Sixteen thousand pairs of shoos were cut and trimmed at one establish ment last week. No Slr-ee, The Mail tells of a lovyer “so galient and bold,” who presented himself be fore a young squire to be done for hy menially. When the girl was asked if she would “ love, honor, and obey ” the gentleman, who stood by her side, she tartly replied, “No, sir-ee!” Noth ing could change the mind of the capri cious fair, and the would-be Benedick went wifeless away. Ireland. It is hardly to be wondered at that the emigration from Ireland amounts to 100,000 annually when we read the accounts of destitution which recent in vestigations iiave brought to light in the county of Donegal. Here is a pic ture of wretchedness which makes one shudder: “I entered one of the dwellings on all fours, through a hole in the wall, and I there found an aged matron.— She was seated before the fire on the hearth, the turf of which had been dug by the male members of the family.— There was no window or aperture to ad mit the light of day, save the hole by which I entered. The head of the bed was in the corner; a few sods of turf at head and foot to support it; a board for the side, with a few sticks thrown across, one end inserted in the wall, and the other end support ed by stones and turf. There was no bed tick, no clothing, with the excep tion of a woolen rag, nor was it suffi cient in size for a single grown adult.’’ »■».. Barbarous Affair. The St. Louis Republican publishes a letter from Cario, 111., of the 23d, from which we extract the following : t A gentleman from Charleston, Missis sippi county, Mo., reports that a bloody and fatal duel took place a few miles above that place yesterday, between two men named —— Lane and Allen Hale They had an old grudge, and agreed to meet and settle it by fighting with dou ble barreled shot guns at ten paces which they did accordingly. At the firet giving of the word, both guns missed (ire ; at the next attempt Hale's gun missed fire, and Lane’s went off, pouring its load of buck-shot into Hale s body. Hale felljand Lane went up to him and beat him on the head with his gun, breaking the gun. Lane had not been arrested this morn ing, the people appearing to regard it os a fair fight. Richmond, April 2.—The tobaceo fac tory of Messrs. Crosby & Winfree was burnt this morning. Loss slo,ooo—in sured Social Correspondence of the Disjxitch. Charleston, April 3, 1858. When I accepted the position of “Spe cial Correspondent of the Dispatch,” some weeks since, 1 little thought, and really j did not intend, that so much time should elapse ere I undertook the fulfillment t of my promise. However, I shall here- r ' after strive to be more regular in my . habits, and give you an inkling of what I is passing here from time to time. We are now enjoying the most de lightful spring weather, and the mar ‘ ket-gardens in.the outskirts of the city 1 are in a flourishing condition, and the ' early variety of vegetables are finding their way into our market-houses. Two weeks more of good weather will bring us an abundant supply of pens, beans, , &c., &c. Businoss continues brisk, and our merchants are wearing smiling faces, under the prospect of being able to make up for the dull times of the past winter. Country merchants are buying largely here—much more so than usual —in preference to sending North for ' their stocks. The large wholesale ; houses here have well-assorted stocks, and there is no question but it is to the interests of the country merchant to give them their patronage. Several communications have appear- . ed in our city papers in favor of erecting an Educational College, instead of mon ument, to the memory of the great Calhoun, to be called the Calhoun Tern- ; pie. The ladies of the Calhoun Monu ment Association, who are laboring , with commendable assiduity,are to open ■ a “Floral Fair,” at Institute Hall, on j the 15th of next month, in aid of their , enterprise, and, from the interest alrea- 1 dy manifested, we may reckon upon its j being well sustained. j The quill war between the editors of the Charleston Courier, and the Standard, still continues its fourth week with un abated vigor. Some good “hits” are 1 made on both sides, while the Standard writer shows himself very far from be ing the “pigmy” his “amiable” cotem porary would strive to make him ap- i i pear. The Keller Troupe are drawing crowd- | ed houses at the Theatre, and will con tinue their performances all next week. ( Barbie's Coquette is on exhibition at Hibernian Hall, and is clearing a great ] sensation. We may criticise and harsh- * ly judge the living coquette, but we may ' not do thus in this work of art. In the ; marble is formed all the beauty of the 1 living model, without her fickle-mind edness. Our people are grumbling much over i the increased amount of their gas-bills for the past quarter. A new light has appeared in the shape of a new lamp, which manufactures its own gas as it r burns it. Danford & Baily's patent „ non-explosive, self-generating gas-light is destined to become a popular thing ' s in every community, and especially in places destitute of coal-gas light. The < substances used in generating the gas | are alcohol and turpentine. The burner ; is extremely simple and not at all liable to injury, either from use or disuse. — Messrs. Kellogg & Dodge, the well | known dealers in Machinery and Patent -11 rights, at 54 Broad street, have pur chased the patents in this State, and, for several evenings past, have illumi { nated theirstore with thisnewgas-light, giving all an opportunity of judging ’ of its intensity, which compares very' fa vorably with the coal-gas 1 iglit. Your cor respondent is using one of these lights, ‘ and does not hesitate to give it his most cordial approbation. Mr. Danford con templates visiting Augusta, when you will have an opportunity of giving the ” matter your personal examination, and, as I perceive your citizens, too, are ; complaining of their gas-bill, it were well they too do not neglect to examine it also. Henry Ward Beecher on the Stage. , Burton's old Theatre in New York has been recently turned into a church. ' It having been announced that Mr. H. W. Beecher would appear as the "star,” '■ the building was jammed full, and still ’ multitudes crowded every entrance, . pressing for admission. We are told by > the New York papers: “All the pit, the galleries, the proscenium boxes, t even the sky lights in the peak of the ' theatre, showed a densely packed mass * of heads, all turned intently towards j the stage, where for sometime, the per former sat alone.” The Boston Courier ' thus refers to the performance : The performer on this occasion was Henry Ward Beecher. In a theatre he was in his element. According to the description given, the audience had from him playing in all its variety. His range of parts was large. He gave them now pantomine and now some thing more in the style of the legitimate drama, and anon an exhibition, which if not actual buffoonery, yet had very much the effect of it. At the opening of the services, he read in succession a long pile of notes for prayers, making comments on each and pointing outthe peculiarities noticeable in each individ ual case. This again gratified cariosi ty and promoted gossip, and had a highly novel and dramatic effect. Af ter a while, hearing certain sounds of music from some neighboring place, he came forward “ to the footlights,” his 1 hand raised, with the air and in the attitude of a good listening actor. The assembly was of a sympathizing spirit. When the hour approached for closing the exercises, and upon the intimation of a hymn to be given out with this in tent, there was a general shout of “go : on,” “goon,” from all parts of the ■ bouse, followed by cries to “keepit up all day I” THIRTY.FIFTH CONGRESS. Washington, April 1, 1858. SENATE. Mr. Brown, from the Committee on j the District of Columbia, reported a bill I providing for additional force and new regulations. On motion of Mr. Hunter, the Sen ate passed the Army Bill, substituting j two for four regiments, besides that for! Texas. The Kansas bill from the House was received. Mr. Green moved that the House amendment be disagreed to.— The subject will be taken up to-morrow. HOUSE. The House considered police affairs in the City of Washington, and instruct ed the proper Committee to make en quires. Every member was in his seat except Mr. Caruthers, of Missouri, who is sick. The gallaries were crowded to suffoca tion. Many foreign ministers were pre sent, and the greatest anxiety was manifest. Mr. Stephens had scarcely moved to take up the Kansas bill, when the no torious Joshua B. Giddings, of Ohio,, objected to its second reading. In such cases, the rule requires that the ques tion be taken on the rejection. This is not considered a fair test of the sen timent of the House, for some Demo crats and Americans who opposed the Senate Bill, wished to amend it, but the Republicans gave a full square vote for rejection. Mr. Quitman offered as a substitute, the Senate bill, with the exception of the j Pugh and Green proviso, declaring that the people have the right to alter and ; amend the Constitution. This was de feated by a vote of 72 to 160. The vote was then taken on Mr. Crit tenden’s amendment as a substitute to the amendment by the Anti-Lecompton portion of Democrats in the latter con ference. This amendment was carried by eighty majority. It provides for the admission of Kansas, but refuses to submit the Constitution to the people for their votes. If rejected, a Conven tion is to be called to form a new Con stitution. As Roon as the latter shall be approved, the President is to issue his proclamation, and Kansas is to be admitted without further action on the part of Congress. Washington, April 2. SENATE. The Kansas bill from the House, was taken up, and Mr. gGrsen, of Missouri, moved that the House amendments to the bill he disagreed to. Messrs. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, Douglas, of Illinois, and Pugh, of Ohio, addressed the Senate. The latter made an able legal speech, showing reasons why he would chauge his vote and op pose the House amendment. The question was then put, and Mr. Green's motion was carried —yeas 32, nays 23. Those who voted in the negative were Messrs. Bell, Broderick, Cameron, Crit tenden, Chandler, Clark, Collamer, Dix on, Doolittle, Douglas, Fessenden, Foot, Foster, Hale, Hamlin, Hardin, King, Seward, Simmons, Stuart, Trumbull, Wade and Wilson—23. Absent —Messrs. Bates, Davis Durkcc, Reid, Sumner aud Toombs—6. All the others voted in favor of Mr. Green's motion. An ineffectual attempt was made by Mr. Douglas to take up the Minnesota bill, after which the Senate adjourned. house. The House was engaged all day in a debate on the Deficiency bill. Nothing of interest transpired. An adjourn ment was moved and carried before the Senate’s action on the Kansas bill was officially announced. Both Houses adjourned over till Mon day. > Colonization of Central America. Both the North and the South have taken steps, says the Charleston News, to colonize Central America. The pa pers inform us that a company of capi talists lias been organized in the State of New York, proposing to purchase lands and lay out cities, towns and farms in that country. The Legislature of Ala bama has also chartered a company to establish a line of steam packets be tween Mobile ami Nicaragua, and other ports on the Gulf of Mexico to the Car ibean sea. This will be eventually a race be tween the North and the South, in the work of colonization. As regards Cen tral America, the South has peculiar aptiudes, from congeniality of climate, for colonization purposes, as the North has in peopling the North-west Territo ries of the United States. It is only by this method that a political counter poise can he maintained. The South lias not hordes of European emigrants to aid in extending its dominion South ward, but it has, notwithstanding, a large body of hold, adventurous spirits who may enlarge the limits of the South, and spread the benefits from slave cultivation over an extensive territory peculiarly fitted to receive Southern institutions. . Central Ameri ca, from climate, geographical position and near neighborhood, is destined to be united to the Southern part of the Atlantic division of the Union and that portion bordering on the Gulf of Mex ico. Prosperity or Brazil. The accounts of the last fiscal year show that the commerce of Brazil has been most lucrative for her, as we find her debt (the bonds for which are in great demand in London) has been di minished, and the receipts beyond ex penses have been more than 20,000,000 of francs. The pressure in Europe and North America has had some effect up on her, hut not to the extent of other nations ; for Brazil has more than sis teen million dollars hard currency, and only twenty millions paper, which makes her condition in this respect bet ter than that of Massachusetts, which has one dollar in gold and silver to be tween five and six of paper. ; It is said that Rev. Theodore Parker is preparing a discourse on Revivals, to be delivered on Fast Day. . Ex-Governor John S. Peters of Con ; necticut, died at Hebron on Tuesday, at : an advanced age. -- Judge Loring, lately removed from t office at BostoD, has issued an address ‘ giving his reasons for not resigning. Albany, April 2.—The anti-Lccomp -1 ton men fired guns here last night, op ' posite the Capitol, in honor of the de : feat of the Administration.

While it renews the strength of the digestive ! powers it creates a desire for the solid materia! j which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. If long life and the vigor necessary to its en joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of; I 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-1 I sion, the individual suffering from geueral de-1 ! bility or from the Weakness of a single organ j | will all find immediate and permanent relief from j the use of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it | will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard i against that terrible malady. There are many j 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 ference to the causes, and will not only remove the disorder itself, hut 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*dc* s’ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous j ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe : males, decay of the propagating functions, bys | teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, impotency, .constipation, etc., from ! whatever cam e arising, it is, if there is any reli-' 1 ance to be placed on human testimony, absolutc i !y infallible. ! ‘ CAUTION.—Dr. Morse’s Invigorating CordiaU j has been counterfeited by some unprincipled ( ! persons.

We take it for granted, as experiment has pro* ven that diseases of the lungs arc not generally the first cause of consumption, but a debilitated ■ sy stem, caused by the improper action of the ■ liver, which reduces the power of the lung s to resist or throw off diseases caused by cold and irritation, leaving the lungs at the mercy of this disease, because the liver has incapacitated them from performing their proper action es , throwing off diseased matter caused by cold. i Thus to prevent consumption, cure the liver and keep the system strong enough to throw off slight diseases of 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 I in & 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 caster Whig.
