LOCAL MATTERS.
Barbee’s Coquette.
This beautiful work of art is now on [
exhibition at the Masonic Hall building,
where it is visited daily by our citizens
from 9 A. M., until 10 P. M. It has
elicited the coidial approbation of the
press wherever it lias been exhibited,
and the most cultivated art-critics have
accorded it a place equal to the very
highest among American works of art.
It is the production of a young Virginia
Artist, and possessing as it does, the
highest merit, a becoming appreciation
for a native artist should induce even
those who have only a moderate appre
ciation of the fine arts, to visit it.
The Duel.
Aswj intimated on yesterday, a duel ;;
was fought at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, 1 i
i
on the South Carolina side of the river, |,
near the Sand Bar Ferry, about four j i
miles below this city. The parties were, j
we learn, from Montgomery, Ala , and j’
their names were Pollakd and Glack- [
meyer. Shots were exchanged, neither j <
party receiving injury, when, upon the j ’
interference of some of our citizens, I
They were induced to submit the matter j
to the adjudication of friends. Welj
have not learned the result of the arbi- j<
tration. With the rumors as to the j
cause of the misunderstanding which [ 1
led to the duel, probably the newspapers j ]
should have nothing to do, and we can-1 >
not, at this time, gratify the prevailing !
curiosity in that direction.
P. S Since writing the above, we rc-: ]
grert to learn that the difficulty has not | 1
teen adjusted, and it is reported that j
another meeting is to take place this ,
afternoon at the same place.
Sewing Slaehlnes.
It has been truly observed that there
is not an invention of this inventive U
age which honors American genius more 1 1
than the Sewing Machine. It not only
relieves the female sex from the health
destroying toil of continuous stitching, f
but it affords them time for out-door |
exercise or self-improvement, of which ,
thev have, to a deplorable extent, de
t
prived themselves, and will thus tend j
to the intellectual and physical improve- ,
ment of the mothers and daughters of
the country, more perhaps, than any 1
one influence of the times.
And if this invention emancipates j
woman from the slavery of the needlo
which has curved the spines, destroyed
the lungs, and blighted the existence of >
so many of her sex, how can its advan
tages he estimated—or, how too much ,
appreciated? And its advantages are i
not confined to those relieved of a bur
den of sewing. To many of the most im- j
portant branches of business, Sewing
Machines arc indispensable—perform- 1
ing work, which in this fast age, there s
-could scarcely be found ‘ ‘idle hands to (
do.” In new- countries, where female 1
labor is not available, they are proving |
of inestimable advantage ; so much so
that a Western editor suggests that wo i
man’s occupation's gone—that the sex 1
arc wholly superceded—as sewing in
stitutions at least—and poor bachelors i
in the wilderness have only to get a
Sewing Machine to he made happy.
We have been led to thus advert to ,
Sewing Machines, from a visit to the
“Sewing Machine Booms,” in this city,
where several are in operation, turn- .
ing out a vast quantity of work of :
every description. The machines in use j
are made by Grover & Baker, and sold
by Thos. P. Stovall & Co., who are
Agents for the State.
From seeing this establishment, to- ,
getlier with continued solicitation in '
that direction from the ladies of the !
household, we were induced to get one ,
of these machines ; and we cheerfully j
add our testimony to the hundreds of 1
willing witnesses of their utility, econ- ,
omy, in short of their indispensahility. -
Instead of the old consumption—giving
stitch, stitch, stitch, there is a merry j
and progressive rush in the sound and ■
movement of the machine, that makes 1
the sewing of a family seem more like ]
pastime. Who would be without a ma
chine ? There is but one objection to (
them—the women, folks actually seem 1
to fall in love with them, and pay them
rather too much attention. We live in (
hope that time will moderate this oh- (
jection, and therefore we advise every- J
body to get one. c

We learn from the Richmond Enquirer, '
that Mr. Everett spent Wednesday last
in Richmond, and went, on Wednesday ‘
night to Washington, to visit his son- '
in-law, Lieut. Henry A. Wise, of’the U. ’
* S. Naval Service, who is about to sail. (
for Germany, on account of ill health., 1
The condition of Lieutenant Wise’sjj
health was the cause of Mr. E’s. sudden U
departure from this city, northward — l l
. He hopes to he able to complete fiis Vir- j 1
ginia engagements in the month oIV

THE SEASON.
“All mournful things are friends of mine—
j The weary sound of fa I ing leaves !
1 Ah. there is not a kindred sou I
For me on eartti. but moans and grievos !
And the wind is wailing bitterly.”
T. B. Aldrich.
Spring scatters her gifts with a lavish hand
Over this rertilo and favored land—
Making of ours a mormurless hand—
And the wind is moving merrily.
! The a,r is filled with the bird’s sweet song.
Trilled from a heart that thinks no wrong—
: Knowing but bliss as it lives along—
And the wind is moving merrily:
|xmy flowers arc cheerfully springing,
•lov to our wintered spirits bringing—
Zephyrs teach them the soft praise they’re sing,
ing—
Ami the wind is moving merrily.
The cirrus cloud, with its azure lining,
fit feathery splendor is leisurely shining—
Ought not these beauties to banish ail pining ?
And tile wind is m ving merrily.

The Coat of Living.
The “staff of life” is now cheap
enough to be within ttie reach of every
body, though the time has been and
not very remote, when flour could he
purchased at almost one-half the price
now asked for it. It would seem that
we are again tending towards the range
jof low prices, inasmuch as repot ts from
’ all parts of the world represent the
growing crops of wheat to he remarka
| hly luxuriant; but, it is always well to
j remember that “there’s many a slip
j twixt the cup and the lip.” If prices,
[however, should get no lower, it is not
at all probable that they will materially
! advance.
The price of bacon is well maintain
ed. We hope that the speculators, to
: whose scheming the present high stan
i dard of rates is to be ascribed, will be
[well “bitten.” The product last year
was largely in advance of that of the
i previous year, while the exports of
[foreign ports have diminished almost
| one-half. Prices must come down.
I Coffee is very high, just now, and is
still “rising.” Those who sip their
| “old government Java” have to pay
: rather dearly for the luxury, the whole
sale price being about 19 cts. per lb.—
Sugar and molasses are higher than was
to have been expected a few months
ago, hut have probably reached the
I maximum, at which they will remain,
1 until * preserving time” comes around, j
It will not be amiss for heads of families
to purchase their supply of preserving
sugar about a month l#.Tore it is needed.

THIRTY-FIFTH CONGRESS.
Washington', April 26, 1858.
SENATE.
Mr. Seward presented a series of res- [
olutions from the Legislature of New
York, asking for the promotion in rank
of Lieutenant Maury, on account Os his
scientific labors. They were referred.
Mr. Mason called tip the resolution
authorizing the President of the United [
State .to send an armed vessel to Para
guay to effect a settlement of the diffi
culties with that Government.
It was debated by Messrs. Mason and
Simmons in favor, and by Mr. Mallory
in opposition. At the expiration of the
morning hour.
The report of the Committee of Con
ference on the Kansos bill was taken
up, anti discussed.
Finally Mr. Crittenden moved to ad
journ the subject till Wednesday next,
which was lost by five majority.
The question pending, when this re
port was closed, was whetherthe Senate
would take the vote at this time.
HOUSE.
Mr. Quitman asked leave to introduce
a joint resolution concerning the ad
mission of new States into the Union, i
Mr. English objected, and several!
gentlemen requested that the resolution I
be read for information.
Mr. Quitman said that it did not apply j
to the present bill, but was designed [
solely to apply to the future.
Mr. Stephens called for the regular j
order—being the motion to postpone, I
until the second Monday of May next, [
the report of the Committee of Confer
ence on the Kansas bill.
Messrs. Harris and English expressed
their willingness to postpone the fur
ther consideration of the subject until [
Wednesday next.
Mr. Marshall, of Kentucky, moved
to lay the whole subject upon the table.
The Speaker, in reply to a question
asked by him, said if that motion
should prevail, it would end the matter,
(and place Kansas in the position sliej
was before application was made for her
admission.)
Mr. Stephens moved, and there wasj
a call of the House, in order to insure a>
full attendance of members.
Mr. Marshall withdrew'his motion to
lay upon the table.
After a conversational debate, the
House voted on the pending motion to
postpone the further consideration of
the report of the Committee of Confer
ence until the second Monday in May.—
The question was decided in the nega
tive- yeas 100, nays 104.
On motion of Mr. Stephens, the fur
ther consideration of the report was
postponed till Wednesday next, at one
o'clock.
The deficiency hill was returned from
the Senate with amendments, two of
which were non*coneurred irV.
The House, when this was closed, was
engaged in the consideration of a reso
lution, offered by J. Glancy Jones, pro
viding for evening sessions this week,
for general debate only.
Immense Amount of Money on Depos-
Itein this Country.
In the banks of the four great cities j
of this country—New York, Boston,!
Piladclphia and New Orleans —there;
were last week on deposit no less than [
one hundred and twenty-eight and a’
quarter millious of dollars, an increase!
on the previous week of nearly two’
millions of dollars. This does not show
any great revival of business in the
country at large. In Boston, previous
to the late financial crisis, the amount
on deposit in the various banks of the
city was not much over fourteen mil
lions of dollars ; it is now twenty and a
half millions. The specie in the banks
of the feur cities last week was fifty!
seven millions five hundred thousand!
dollars, the previous week, fifty five
millions eight hundred thousand dol-|
lars—an increase of a million and a half
in one week. In Boston, within the
past six months, the amount of specie'
has about doubled.— Boston Traveller, of
April 17.

{IT Dr. Sanford’s Invigora
tor.—The most skeptical people can be con
vinced by trial that all the family medicines are
not humbug, and that among the thousand of
butter-fly life there are a few of great merit and
undoubted worth. 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 truiy
valuable medicine. It is recommended with tes
timonials to prove its virtue for the cure of liver
complaints of every kind, from the worst Dys
pepsia to a common Headache, and is particular
ly adapted to Jaundice, Deranged Stomach, Bow
el Complaints, and Diseases of Children,
One or two doses are said to cure a cold with
scarce a failure. It is worth a trial for this
alone. It is particularly adapted to the use of
ladies of sedentary habits. Some ladies of the
highest standing in society have given their cer
tificates of its efficacy, and we say to all who are
ailing, try one bottle, and you will never be
without it. —Bloomfield Press. ap26-m

The Great P r oblom
Solved !—DR. 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 j
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was j
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the j
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the !
acute, physical agony 7 of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux ‘
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
rors. wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, k boiue down and dispirited by that j
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of j
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain j
or disability arising from the unnatural condition ,
of the wonderful machinery' which connects ev
cry member with the source of sensation, mo- I
tion and thoifght—derives immediate benefit i
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, !
invigorates and 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 hands of |
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a di»oct, im- (
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite. !
While it renews the strength of the digestive I
[lowers 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- i
joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of (
precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either !
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing 1
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn j
man of business, the victim of nervous depres- j
sion, the individual suffering from general de- '
bility or from the weakness of a single organ J
will all find immediate and permanent relief from '
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it i
will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard j
against that terrible malady. There arc many !
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- '
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The j
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con-
stitution
