LOCAL MATTERS, i cr_.. r.vrr:—: j Tlte C'orjutttc. , By reference to another column, it 1 will be seen that this work of art will 1 be on exhibition in our city for a short \ time. From the reputation which it i has acquired in Charleston, and other places, we conclude that it is a work of , uncommon merit, and worthy the pa- ; trouage of lovers of the noble art of sculpture. . Tlic Weather. f i For the last two days the weather , has been very cold and disagreeable. During most of the day yesterday we had a cold rain, butthewind and clouds we believe prevented any frost this morning. It is now clear and cold, ; with a prospect for a frost to-niglit. , [communicated.] Young Men’s Christian Association. Mr. Editor:— l was sorry that so tri fling an excuse as the appearance of a ' little rain should have prevented an “overflowing house” from listening to the truly excellent sermon of Kev. Dr. ' Wilson, before the Young Men’s Chris tian Association, at St. John's Church, on last Sunday evening. Would that all the youth of our coun try might treasure up in their hearts the great and instructive principles of | this eloquent and impressive address. The subject, that no man, however j brilliant, polished or cultivated in the j world of letters—however extensive in his researcl-.es and discoveries, or re nowned in the arts and sciences, or dis tinguished in political or military achievements, can be truly great without an acquaintance with tlte “Man of Cal vary,” is similar to the theme of a dis j course recently delivered in Cincinnati, j by the Rev. Edward Hitchcock, of; Amherst, the eminent Geologist, (text from Hoseaflth— 3d) tlte object of which l sermon was to illustrate the superiority j of the attainments of the Christian j over the man who does not avail him self of the blessings of a true and pure | religion, which are a knowledge of the reality and power of communion with! God, and the world to come—of the | power of the Scriptures—of the power of prayer- -of the true phylosophy of religion—of the comparative value of this world. The Christian will act under the in- ; fluenee of disinterested benevolence j will know how to interpret the Divine i Providences, and will know the naturo j 1 aud power of faith. The speaker, in conclusion, applying the subject, allu-! ded to the superiority of such knowl-j edge and the insignificance of all litera-1 turc and science when compared witli it ; designating this knowledge as a| test of Christian character, and growth j in grace, and showed wherein tire sub- j ject afforded an important lesson to the skeptic, who could not distinguish be tween morality and religion ; and clos- j ed by depicting how natural and easy such Christain knowledge made the j : transition from life on earth to life in heaven* Stranger. An English Tragedy.— Lerwick,Eng- i land, has been shocked bv tire murder of a wife, her two sons, and a daughter j and the suicide of the murderer. Itap- • pears that between six and seven o’clock ■ in the morning of the 26th inst., loud cries of “ Murder” were heard to pro J ceed from the house of Mr. I’eter Wil- j . liamson, Merchant and Shipping Agent, So. 1, Fox-lane. The only person who , seems at first to have heard the alarm, j was a carpenter employed at an adjoin- j ing shop, hut lie was so frightened that he was unable to go to the house alone. | He eventually obtained the assistance of Mr. Dickson, superintendant of police, who upon entering the premises, found Mrs. Williamson lying in one of the j rooms with her throat frightfully cut. She was alive, but did not survive more than half an hour. The bodies of two of the children were found in another room, their heads having been battered in with a large hammer. In an adjoin ing apartment were the bodies of a lit tle boy two years of age and father.—j The latter had in his hand a razor, and and by his side were lying a large knife and the hammer. The father s head was nearly served from his body. The Senate Commitee on Commerce has decided that it would he unwise to j prosecute the improvement of rivers and j harbors borrowing the money, and, as the treasury was not in a condition to furnish the means, it was inexpedient to report in favor of such improvements. : The report wan unanimous. “Read the biographies of our great and good men and women,” says an ex. : ■•Not one of them had a fashionable mother. They nearly all sprung from I plain, storngminded women, who had as little to do with fashions as with the changing of clouds.” The first daily newspaper printed in Virginia was in 1780, and the subscrip tion price was SSO per annum. Girard Colleoe in Philadelphia con tains 355 pupils, all of whom are or- j phans. The canal debt of the State of New ! York is now $25,689,000. In 1817 the debt was only’ $200,000. Plight hundred and fifty disaffected i Mormons have been all owed by Brigham 1 Young to leave for California. What the Mormons will Do. In a letter from C. H. Bosset, dated Salt Lake City, Feb, 4, to a relative in Michigan, and published in the Detroit Advertiser, we find the following : “ I have not space in a short letter to say much about our prospects and de termination. We have resi -ed, and every hand has been raised .... heaven to sanction the resolution, that if we are closely pressed by our foes, we will burn our habitations and fences, and cut down every tree in the valley and lay waste our fields, and our ene-! mies shall have the satisfaction of gaz- \ ing on a scene of blackened desolation; t while we with our families shall retire to the mountain fastnesses where dra-1 goons cannot possibly follow. There are recesses in the Rocky Mountains so impregnable by nature that they can be as easily defended as were the Straits of Thermopylae, Indeed I have penetra ted mountain gorges, where a mountain ! goat could hardly follow. Herejwith! a few years’ provisions ou hand,we shall he secure from the reacli of armies, and j when the Government has spent ten I times the sum of the cost of the Florida : war, they will be glad to abandon their now taV'orite scheme of exterminating tlic Mormons, A Tough Old Stump.—ln boring the 1 Artesian well in Stockton, California, the bore struckea red wood stump 350, feet below the surface of the ground, ], and more»than 250 feet below the level) of the Pacific Ocean. The earth above i and below was of stratified clay and sand, which had apparently not been dhturbed since its original disposition, which, occurred nobody knows when, perhaps several hundreds of thousands of years ago. That is a tough old stump. jjeT' There was a heavy frost in At lanta, on Saturday morning, which did considerable damage to vegetation. Some genius has conceived the bril liant idea to press all the lawyers into military service in case of war—because their charges are so great that no one could stand them. | HITT he national debt of Mexico fig-] | tires up one hundred and twenty-nine j ! millions, without the floating debt.

Os these, Dr. SANFORD’S INVIGORATOR or LIVER REMEDY stands first and foremost among the remedies of the day that can be relied on as a medicine that is all it is recommended by its proprietors. It adver tises itself on every trial, for there are none who use it i ut tell their friends to do so, and so it goes from mouth to mouth till all the people of the Union have learned the good of this truly valuable medicine.

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 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 sufferer, 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, Tic-doloreux or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with paraiy.-; , b rue tftv. ii and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from the unnatural condition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion ami thought—derives immediate benefit from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, invigorates aod regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it are unanimous in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the haeds 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 material 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 preeiou- 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 th 4 weakness of a single organ will all find Immediateand permanent relief from the use of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove {i complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible nvilady. There are many perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu tion that they think themselves beyond the reach of medicine. I.et not even those despair. The Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re erence to the causes, and will not only remove the disorder 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 ofself-de s ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, pulpitation of the heart, iin potency, constipation, etc., from whatever cau e arising, it is, if there is any reli ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly lnraiiiMe.
