Prof. Fowler’s last lecture in Augusta is announced for this evening at Ma sonic Hail. His lectures embody much that is of practical interest and importance. We have alluded frequently to the occasion presented by his visit, to obtain a knowledge of the science the study of which he has spent a long life, and would call especial attention to the lec ture this evening, announced in anoth er place, on the subject of Matrimony, a portion of which was embraced in a lecture iast week. The topics embraced: in this lecture are those first laws, ! which it is claimed, if properly followed, would do much to soften down the as- j perities and jarriugs of conjugal life. We regard this the most practical lee ture of the course, and hope the Hall may be crowded. * - Insane 3lun Missing. A young man about twenty-five years of age, named James Dixon, well 1 known in Augusta, left the city two j weeks ago for Burke county. He was: seen on the plantation of Wm. M. I D Antignac, near Demery's ferry, on Saturday 28th of March, in an insane' condition, from mania-portu ; since which 1 time he lias not been heard of. 'He has i Buffered before from such attacks, and I it is feared he may have died from ex- j posure in the late cold rain. Any infor mation in reference to him will be \ thankfully received hv his widowed | mother and other relatives in this city.! Savannah papers will please notice. —— . Receipts by the Georgia Railroad. From the Comtitutionaliit of yesterday ' morning, we learn that the receipts of; Cotton, flour and grain for the months of February and March by the Georgia j Railroad were as follows : Cotton. Flour. Grain. In February, 34053 6659 45146 In March, 21797 # 9292 50355 [communicated.] Mr. Editor 1 learn that Prof. Fow- LRii, may be induced to remain and re peat his lecture to Gentlemen on Tues day evening, provided an interest isj manifested sufficient to warrant his do ing so. For my own part, I believe this lecture to be calculated to do much ; real good, and trust this opportunity! will not he lost by the young men of i this dty. P. Last Days of Col. Benton, A Washington correspondent of the] Tones thus alludes to the declining health ; of this last of our noted statesmen: Col. Benton is about closing his long; and eventful career. He is almost the last of the old veterans—the men who: were in the height of their glory during the days of Jackson, and who then made the whole country ring with the echo of I their contending blows. He has been confined to his room for the last fen weeks. • In the pleasant weather of Feb ruary, he was often to he seen riding slowly, upon his splendid black horse, j along the Avenue, keeping near enough to the sidewalk to enable him to recog nize and return the courteous salutations of the many friends he was sure to meet. But he soon became too feeble for this, and was scarcely ever out of his cham- - her. Now he is confined to his bed a!- j most entirely, suffering a great deal of I pain, but coating it with characteristic] fortitude, and, in spiteof it all, working incessantly at the abridgment of the | Congressional Debates. He lias com pleted the work nearly to 1850, and says! lie only hopes to live long enough to j bring it down to the present time. But ] it is very doubtuful whether this will be vouchsafed to him. He suffers from an internal cancer, and it may end his j life almost at any moment. Frame and England. The question of war between France and England can best he solved by as-} eertaining what are the interest of Na-: poleon in the matter. That the interests' of both countries and of Europe are at j peace, no man understands better than , the astute, collected and statesman who occupies the throne France. But the preservation of pu is more important to the dynasty poleon than any other consider:, and whether this can be made hie with a pacific policy, depends the dispositions of the grand army uiß the passions of the French people. IT tire army can remain eontent with inac- 1 tion. and the French people prefer the j substantial blessings of peace to milita- j ry pride and prestige, the future will) continue quiet and serene. Certain it is, however, that if Napoleon is ever: called upon to surrender, the alliance j or the dynasty, he will be long in com- i ing to a conclusion. — Richmond Dispatch. There are in the city of New York nearly forty thousand women who sew for a living. About 13,000 of these are shirt makers, 11,000 tailoresses and vest makers, 4400 cloak and mantilla ma kers, 3000 dress makers and milliners, besides those employed in other branches of needlework. A Mode of Computing Interest. Multiply the sum by the number of days ; that product, being divided by 0, will give the interest in mills ; then strike of the right hand figure. Here is art example : 200 dollars. 12 days. 6)2400(40[0] cents. If 7 per cent, is required, add to 6 per I cent its one-sixth. ! t HM PRINTER'S lIOHEXLINDE V • \ D seafous when onr funds are low Subscribers arc provoking slow j And few supiilic- keep up the flow Os dimes departing rapidly. But *e shall se > a sadder sight, When duns come in from morn till night, Commanding every sixpence bright, To be forked over speedily. Our bonds and due bills arc arrayed, Each seal and signature displayed— The holders they must ail be paid. With threat of law and chancery. j When to despair we’re almost driven, j There's precious little fun in living. ! When our last copper’s rudely riven, From hands that held it lovingly. ! But larger yet the duns shall grow. When interest's added on below, Lengthening the chain a foot or so, While gluing at them hopelessly. ’Tis so, that scarce have we begun To plead for time upon a dun, Before there was no her one, Demanding pay ferociously. The prospect darkens ! on ye brave, Who would our very bacon save, Waive, patrons, all thy pretexts waive, And pay the printers’ honestly. Oh ! it would yield us pleasure sweet, A few delinquents now to meet, Asking of us a clear receipt, For papers taken regularly. Nine weeks ago a family in Philadel phia, named Koehler, consisting of the father, two sons and a daughter, were al I ; bitten by a pug dog, but a few weeks j old at the time. One son was taken down on Thursday of last week, and died in dreadful convulsions on Sunday. . On Tuesday the sister was taken down and will die without the slightest doubt; the father and the other son are doom ed and will die also! Here are four vic tims to the senseless and wicked persis tence of keeping dogs, which are not only a pest and a nuisance to neighbor- 1 ; hoods, but whose bite is productive, j in thousands of cases of sufferings so horrible that the death which closes the j scene is positive relief to those who stand about the bedside of the wretch ; ed sufferer. —New York Day Book. Touching Incident. The Columbus correspondent of the j | Painesville Telegraph , in a letter dated March Bth, relates the following ; A nice little “scene ” took place at the Penitentiary, on Saturday afternoon ! —of which I will try to give the read ers of jtlie Telegraph some notion. A few years since there was seut to that institution from Hamilton county, for a ! long term of years, oil the charge of burglary, an old Polish exile ; an old | man who had fought brave for hiscoun : try and liberty. In this land of stran gers, and with no friends, the old man had never for a moment entertained the idea of release, and patiently was j toiling through his weary months. Some facts have recently come to light, as I hear the rumor,showing that the old man was not guilty of the crime | charged to him. At any rate, the Gov ernor decided upon his pardon ; and on ! Saturday afternoon,Gov. Chase’s daugh ter, a fair and noble girl of seventeen , or eighteen summers—and who in her person proves that the generally ac cepted truth that “great men never, have great sons,” does not reach to daughters —takes ther pardon and makes her way to the prison. Without inti mating her mission she desires the war- “ den to ask the old Polander, whose ! name I have now forgotten, to come to j the sitting-room. The old man, his ■ head white with the accumulated bur ! den of years and trouble, was not long !in answering the summons, for who j thought he, in all this world, could ask j for him. The pardon was put in his ; trembling hand. Oh ! then the joy.— It was all so unexpected—and came | through such hands : The old hero < faiily capered for joy. He could scarce- I ly find words among his broken English 1 through which to tell his thankfulness. Ah, it was a blessed scene for those who i had the joyful privilege of looking on. | The fair and modest heroine, I know, will shrink from this public recital ; : but one cannot well forbear telling so i beautiful an event. . Steamer Burnt—Some Twenty Live* Lost. St. Louis, April 2. —The steamer Sul* ] i ton was burned this morning near Cape ; Girardeau, by which disaster from fif ]: teen to twenty lives were lost, including ' two ladies and two gentlemen passen | gers. The boat was bound to New Or leans with a full cargo, al! of which is a I total loss. tipi-ning of Lake Navigation. Buffalo, April 2.—Two New York Central Railroad propellers left here . I yesterday morning for up the Lake.— ,! They have succeeded in forcing their ] I way through the ice and snow out of ; sight. Lake navigation is fairly open at this port. New York, April I.— The Collins 1 j Line Steamers subject to a lien of $650,- ! 000 were sold this morning in one lot j bv Dudley B. Fuller, at $50,000. | Philadelphia. April 1. —A sale of ] 1,800 hags Rio Coffee was made at auc j tioii to-day at 9 7 8 a 10 1-2 cents. j The Watchmen in Portland, Me., I are holding prayer meetings in their I watch houses.

The St. Louis Evening News says : Before the Mormons abandoned Jack son county, Mo., a chosen number se cretly laid the foundation of the future temple, and then carefully covering all traces of their work with dirt, planted it over. The location of this spot is held as a church secret. The idea of shortly returning to build this temple is continually fostered by the leading saints in Utah, according to a letter from California. The machinery for the new sloop-of war Richmond is to be manufactured at : the Portsmouth (Ya.) Navy Yard. . ■■■ ! The stagnation of trade in France has 1 caused a sad dimunition in the incomes [of the railway companies. i Another shot at the Emperor. From a correspondent of the Boston Post. The peace which was promised by tile detection and capture of Orsini is not 1 nigii. On Monday last another shot, I am told, was fired at the emperor, just as he was leaving the little garden to the right of the gate-way of the Tuile* ries to cross over to the paterre on the , other side. The shot came from a sub- j officer of one of the regiments of ttie line. But few persons were present; 1 and he stood isolated from the little , knot of jlaneurs who assemble against the grating to see the emperor pass by. No event of the kind is, of course, ever * registered in the journals,—not even to , state that the shot lias missed, as usual, nor to mention about “ the star ” and the “mission" under which, and for 1 j which, Louis Napoleon pronounces him self invulnerable. The rumor runs, that the culprit was shot on the instant; and another report declares that the ] character he had assumed was a ficti tious one, and’that he had turned out, i !on examination, to belong to the Italian ] 1 section of conspirators, although him ! self a Frenchman. The story is believ i ed throughout Paris, in spite of the se \ crecy with which it lias been hushed up; 1 ■ ] and has not tended to increase the se i [Ciirity of the public mind, as you may I well imagine. i! Lager Bier Adulterations. Hunt’s Merchant's Magazine enumerates no less than thirty-eight substances , which are employed to give potency, < flavor, consistency, and other desirable 1 qualities, to this detestable form of grog. Among them are chalk, marble dust, opium, tobacco, henbane, oil of vitriol, blue vitriol, copperas, alum, strychnine, ] and other deadly drugs. t ! These drugs diminish the intoxicating ■ effects of the liquor, while they greatly | j increase its potency to kill. But this is i ] all to the advantage of the dealer, he- I | cause the customer can drink a much I , | larger quantity without “inakingdrunk , i ] come,” although he will make disease and death come in double quick time. 1 | A couple of years since, a highly re- ! spectable physician of Newark, X. J., !(a distinguished advocate for total ab stinence and legal suasion measures, by | the way,) published in a medical jour- ( nal a very learned article in favor of exempting lager-bier from the “Maine Law,” which, he contended, should be applied to all other alcoholic beverages, j He claimed exemption for lagcr-lner on the ground of its extraordinary and 1 peculiar medicinal virtues! Was lie igno- , * rant of the nature of the medicine he so U highly recommended ? Did lie know that its wonderful virtues depended on ! this horrid medley of poisons ?
