(Stating Dispute!). ~AUQU ST A. GA: Friday Evening:, May 7,1858. Circumstantial Evidence. The Athens Banner takes us to task for indulging a phrase of pleasantry in *h e number of con* victs lately s' \’» to tb« Penitentiary from Frank'. counts .. That pape'r gays the people of that couftfy’ are among the roost intelligent in the State, and to prove it, says that “the Banner has more subscribers in Franklin coun ty, than in any connty in the district.’ Rather questionable evidence of tlreir intelligence, we should say. „. & . ■few Process of Palling Teeth. The editor of the Baltimore Patriot has recently been witnessing the trial of a new process of extracting teeth, by which it was stated the operation would cause no pain. The trial was made at the College of Dental Surgery, at Balti more, and the operators were Drs. Har ris and Arthur. It is said to have been the most satisfactory trial of the kind ever witnessed. A number of teeth were extracted, and the patients declare they received no pain, hut expe rienced a numbing sensation about the tooth. This soothing is produced by passing a current of electricity through the tooth at the time of extracting The patient grasps firmly in his hand one pole from an electro-magnetic ma chine ; the other pole from the machine is attached to the forceps, and by this means a current of electricity is passed through the tooth and produces a local anasthesia, and so avoids the use of chloroform or ether. The amount of current is adjusted so as to suit each pa tient, so as not to produce an unpleas- , ant sensation. Methodist Conference. This body is in session in Nashville, and will continue for five or six weeks. Oar Nashville exchanges contain no no- ( jtiee of the proceedings, being cousidera- | My engrosser with races > thu °P era , Company, the fair, and other secular attractions; and having no exchange i with the Methodist paper there, we are 1 not posted as to the late proceedings. — * Will not brother Walker, of the Banner —who is usually “’round,” when local , matters are involved—drop in, and give his Georgia admirers a daily glimpse of the deliberations of the Convention ? Levees* The recent almost unprecedented rise of the Father of Floods has shown satis factorily that with the perfection of the Levee system, as now commenced, the Valley of the Mississippi will become the Talley of another Nile. Crevesses have occurred in many places, hut these will soon he closed, and experience, a better | engineer than holding official position,! will retrieve all former error, and secure the cities of the Mississippi Valley from j the terrible devastations that have so ; impeded their progress. Fire In Boston. At a late fire in Boston, the seven j story building, occupied by the Doug- , lass Axe Company, and by Sanborne, ] Bams & Co., a Job Printing firm, and j i an adjoining building occupied by! ] Grant, Warren & Co., were destroyed. The falling walls demolished an adjoin- 11 ing building, and killed four persons. ] Loss $200,000, chiefly insured.

With a slight alteration in the phraseology, which would read “credit to whom credit is due,” we should like to hang this same leather medal in a conspicuous place in the office of the Augusta Evening Dispatch. That paper, in its issue of the 29th ult.. copied seven news items from the Southern Banner. and not only gave no credit, but ap propriated them as editorial. Send along the medal, brother Ban ner, we appreciate mementoes from our friends,-and especially when they are so suggestive of the accomplishments of the donor. In winning this medal, you bore off the honors of the poorest *hot in the company, and in sending it to us for the cause alleged, will acquire similar distinction as an editorial marks- man. Candidly, your soft impeachment in reference to appropriating copy without credit, simply because we chanced to find material in a column of the Banner for a few “Georgia items,” (not edito rials) which were re-written, and con densed into two dozen lines—and which it is not customary to credit, —approaches an impudence almost subline, when week by week you copy the telegraphic dispatches from the Augusta press, which cost thousands of dollars a year, of which wo pay one third—without a word of credit. JIT' Dr. A. Means, through the South ern Christian Advocate, of yesterday gave the following account of the Revival now in progress in Oxford Ga. Almost our entire community, pre viously esteemed religious, has felt the baptismal unction, and up to the last evening about 80 persons, male and fe male, have swelled the list of our church membership. Out of about 120 students, now in Emory College, 95 or 96 are now recognised as professors of religion, and give evidence of an ardent devotion to the cause of God. Several young and hopeful disciples have pub licly pledged themselves unreservedly to the church and to the work of the ministry. « The $50,000 Prize.” The reason the lucky Savannah man, who recently drew a capital prize in Swan & Co.’s celebrated lotteries, keeps dark in the matter now, comes to light as follows : I He had tried every kind of specula j tion in accordance with honesty and the (“golden rule,” he lost thereby, became involved, and the “ world” (whichreg ulates morals) pronounced him “not | smart.” He could not “defalcate” a bank with a mighty sweep; he could not marry “a fortune ” on the strength of good looks and impudence; nobody left him a legacy, because tho rich nev er remember poor relations ; he did not swindle orphans out of their property ; he did not amass wealth by nigger spec | illation, note shaving, or selling whis | key ; he even did not make a self-pay ring “business failure”—but to obtain I what he has got, he bought and paid for a j I lottery ticket. It turned out to be a | lucky one, in a line, which • For him Fortune showed herself more kind Thau is her custom.” The “lucky recipient” has learned c cuteness or “smartness” by adversity 8 and experience. Was he so “ jolly I' green” as to let his cormorant creditors j * know he had gained fifty thousand dol lars, to have his happiness “mulled?”! ! No, siree! says he, like a bumptuous j 1 cove “No? my tulips—l would rather Here right oil'the ‘bucket kick,’ DeCore you’d 1 chouse ’me any farther,— J From thi town, ‘ I'll cut my stick.’ ” Consequently, the “lucky individu-1 al” may appear to some rather “my thical,” so we publish this denouement j ■ for the benefit of certain journals who i j agitated the question—for reasons pecu- j liarly known to themselves. —Savannah I 1 Georgian. Advertising. The two first verses of the first chap ter of the “Chronicles of Success,”!, read thus: “Who hath sadness? Who hath! woe? Who “ shinneth” the streets! with gloom of countenance and perplex-' ity of mind ? Who loseth the confi dence and patronage of men. and sink-1 eth into poverty and forgetfulness ? He { that advertiseth not —He that doth | not make himself known through the! papers—He who, by his neglect in this | i j matter, depriveth himself of gain; and secureth to himself loss! His business j wisdom is foolishness. His lack of! . | knowledge, aye, his stinginess sticketh I , j out, and the discerning shun him. j “Who hath gladness? Who hath 1 ' j joy ? Who hath a growing business and ! full coffers? Who payeth his notes j promptly ? Who gaineth the confidence ! 1 land patronage of men, and rises surely j .j to affluence ? He that advertise™ li- j ' eekally— He that through the journals i ' of the day, maketh himself and busi -1 ness known ! He hath chosen the part , of wisdom, and his riches and honors ! increase like the light of the morning.! His shadow groweth bread. Hi com - placency increaseth. His fame extend- 1 , ‘ eth. His happiness endureth, and he is ) honored and blessed of all men—par- 1 ! ticnlarly printers.” So mote it be ! ,! **•- , i The Sunken Ships at Sebastopol. —We | understand on excellent authority, that | ! the report that the Sebastopol company ! ! has proved a failure, and that the sunk , en ships can never be raised, is an error. , Whatever the difficulties in removing | these obstructions— and the difficulties j have been greatly exaggerated—the Rus-i sian government is determined that they shall be overcomer and as it is I prepared to remunerate the contractors ! adequately, whatever the cost, success J is only a question of time.— Phil. Ledger, j ( ol.lvlnmy mill the Mormons. A Panama correspondent says that Col. Kinney has been for some time treating with the Mormons, with the view of settling them on the Mosquito coast. Some mouths since,he dispatch ed from that place an English Mormon empowered to sell them one half of what is known as the “Shepherdand Holey Grant,” and by the last California steamer the Colonel received intelli gence that his proposition had been fa vorably received by the Mormons, and that this intelligence lias enabled him to raise (his friends say) thirty thous and doliaxs in cash, and eighty thous and more in merchandise and supplies with which, and accompanied by about twenty followers, he has sailed for Grey town . — ■low n Game ot Chess Helped Colnm lius to Discover America. According to tbeold Spanish tradition, Columbus’s discovery of Ameriea is mainly dun to a hard fought game of chess. Ferdinand of Spain wasted tiie latter hours of the day over the chequer ed board, his principal antagonist being an old grandee, whole skill put the monarch’s powers to a severe test. Co lumbus had long been dancing atten dant •; at the Court in pursuance of the •lie aiu f his life—the grant of an ex dittos n search of a new world, and a;i : 'Ueii he had hitherto failed in his aim. vet he had enlisted the sympathies and support of the good Isabella. Fer dinand was one of those matter of fact men, who object to furthering the schemes of enthusiasts, and withheld his consent to a New World expedition being formed. * Poor Columbus would long before t have sought assistance elsewhere, but e Isabella prevented him, and redoubled . her efforts with her husband. The day arrived when the great navigator was to receive his final answer ; he wended 1 his way towards the palace at nightfall, t more with the intention of bidding 5 adieu to his royal patroness, than from r any hope of success with Ferdinand.— . Isabella had not, however, resigned her self and Columbus to defeat, and, on the latter’s arriving, she immediately 1 sought the King, who, being absorbed s in a hard-fought game with the afore i mentioned old noble, was not in a like . ly mood to be bothered by the applica tion of an importunate sailor. The Queen’s interruption had the effect of merely distracting the monarch’s at tention, causing him to lose his princi pal piece, which was followed by a vol ley of imprecations on suitors in general and Columbus in particular. The game grew worse and worse, and defeat seemed imminent. Now Isabella, without ever playing, had picked up considerable knowledge of the game by watching her husband and the nobles, and when Ferdinand told her that her protege should successful or otherwise, according as the game resulted, she immediately bent all her energies upon the board. The con test had been unusually long and the courtiers clustered round the table, amused at the excitement of the King, and the quiet satisfaction of his anta gonist. And so the game went on, which was to decide the discovery of a new world, until Isabella leaned towards her husband’s ear and whispered “ you can check-mate him in four moves.”— In the utmost astonishment the King re-examined his game, found that his wife’s assertion was correct, and an nounced a few minutes subsequently that Columbus should depart on his voyage of discovery with the title of “ Admiral of the Fleets.” How It was Hone. Mr. Garnett and others who voted for the Conference Report on the Kansas 1 Bill, did not do so until they had as surance that the Bill would be supported which made a general law for the Ter-1 ritories ; that they should not be en- j titled to ask for admission until, after a census taken, it was shown that they had the requisite population. Mr. R. Boughton, of Conesville, Schoharie county N. Y,, and a young j lady named Rennie, from Greene coun | ty, recently eloped. Mr. Boughton is a : man about sixty years of age, a mer chant and a class leader, and has left a wife and family in sore trouble. A white woman, in Mecklenburg county, became the mother, a few days i since, of four children, two of whom . | were of her own color, and the other 5 1 two black.— Richmond Wing of yest. —— —- Miss Helen Cunningham, one of the daughters of Mrs. Harvey Burdell Cun ningham, was married last week, by the Rev. Mr. Van Clef, of the Dutch re formed Church, of Jersey city, to a young dentist of Yew York. Dullness of Hiisines lit California. ■ The New York correspondent of the i Pennsylvanian writes that passengers : from California, by the Moses Taylor, j Taylor, do not give a very flattering ac- I count of business matters there. Trade, j they say, was very dull, notwithstand ing the conteur de rose representations of i the newspapers, and in San Francisco it ! was extremely difficult for mechanics | and laboring men to get anything to do. lln the interior and in the mining dis j tricts prospects were rather better, but, | at the best, they say there is nothing in 'California to tempt emigration from the ; Atlantic States. Can Actors and Musicians be Chris tians. — Bishop Eastburn has declined j to confirm “ Honest Tom Comer,” be | cause he leads an orchestra in the Bos j ton theatre. Bishop Kip, of California I has just administered the rite of confir i mation to Mrs. Julia Dean Hayne, the j wel 1 known actress ; and Fanny Kem j ble Butler is a regular communicant of tlie Episcopal church. • | Col. Fremont,who left New York not : long age for California, intends to make | his residence there. He will remain on j Ills place in Bear Valley, on his Maripo- I I so estate, until September, when he ■: will return to New York to speud the ; : winter. 1 i There seems to be a scarcity of prin- I tors in Kansas. Almost every paper in j the Territory is advertising for help. The ; I Herald of Freedom at Lawrence wants j four. The price of newspaper composi -1 tion is 35 cents. 1 I The most exciting topic in Canada, just now, is the proposition to repeal the laws forbidding usury. Ex-Senator Westcott, of Florida, was j seized with a fit in Broadway, New j York, last Saturday. He was removed |to his residence, 60 Clinton Place, and ! is now better. | | The watchman in Portland, Me., are holding prayer-meetings in the watch j houses. : THE jiTEST NEWS. > BY TELEGRAPH i Crevnsscsnnd high Water in the West. t New Orleans, May 6.—The rivers above are rapidly rising, and the injury . is incalculable. j Dentil of Senator Evans, of S.

The Washington correspondent of ( the New York Times says: I have heard the opinion expressed in , intelligent and well-informed quarters ' here, that the statement of “A Disgus f ted Mormon,” contained in the letter of your special correspondent from Leavenworth, really emanated from t Brigham Young himself, and that Lo . ba, instead of being an escaped and dis -1 gusted Saint, is a secret agent of Brig ham’s, whose mission is to dissuade the , the Government, by depreciating the l strength and resources of the Mormons, from sending out more forces against them. The idea is based on the suppo . sition that Brigham, finding his brag , gadocia to have failed in its object of L . deterring the Government from inter s sering with him, is trying this new game with a view to induce it not tore inforce Gen. Johnson. From what we know of the character of the Mormon leader and Prophet, the suggestion, j seems worthy of consideration. Kansas.—M. F. Conway, Esq., Presi s dent of the Convention which formed the v late Kansas Constitution at Leavenworth i city, has issued his proclamation that 1 the constitution shall be submitted to the people of Kansas for approval on the third Tuesday in May e j Thecorn was tasselling in Salem, Ala., on the 23d ult.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR -1 DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach • has lost the power of duly converting food into a [ life-sustaining element, is relieved hy 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 1 wholesome revolution created in the system, the basis of activity, strength and health. Tho nervous sufferer, while tormented hy the acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with paralysis, {borne down and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from the unnaturalcondition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immedhte benefit 1 from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, i invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it arc unanimous in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon shat 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 I ; which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. j , If long life and the vigor necessary to its en 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 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 the weakness of a single organ . will all find immediateaud permanent relief from ■ the use of this incomparable renovator. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it a will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard 1 against that terrible malady. There are many r perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- j j tiofi that they think themselves beyond the reach j of medicine. Let not even those despair. The , Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re lerence to the causes, and will not only remove J the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con- i stitutioh LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush j of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil- ( ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofself-de- f s'ruction, fear of insauity, hypochondriasis, dys- \ pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous- t ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys j teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of 1 the heart, impotency, m constipation, etc., from j whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli- ( mice to be placed on human testimony,absolute- I ly infaunae.
