LOCAL MATTERS"
Visitors to the Convention.
We shall be pleased to extend the
freedom of our Sanctum to any of our j
friends who are in the city during Con-;
vention week. Those who wish to see j
late papers are especially invited to call j
and examine them.
Troth Extracted by Electricity.
A new and signally successful experi
ment in extracting teeth by the electri
cal process described in our paper of
Friday evening 7th inst., was perform
ed by Dr. Chase, a his rooms this
morning, assisted by Dr. A. P. Bignon,
late of the Baltimore College. Seven
teeth—five upper molars, and two eye
teeth—were extracted, and the patient
declared that she experienced no pain,
but simply a numbing sensation about
the gums. The gum was also lanced
by the same process. This is, we be
lieve, the first instance of the applica
tion of this new agent to the dental art
in this section, and in the hands of the
skillful surgeon it promises to be a most
valuable discovery.
New Drug Store.
Among the new branches of business
opened in our city—which it always af
fords U 3 pleasure to chronicle —is the
Drugstore of Dr. Paimer, under the
Planters’ Hotel. It is a neatly arranged
and creditable store, and we commend
it to the public, and especially to the
Reform practice, to the friends ot which
Dr. Palmer also offers his professional
bjrvices.

Serious Accident.
On Saturday night, abont ten clock,
a negro woman the property of Mrs.
Wilson, was instantly killed, by the ex.
plosion o[ a Kerosine barrel, while she
wa* in the act of looking into it. The fire
■' communicating with the gas, burst the
barrel, with aloud report. This occur
red at the residence of Mr. Monger in
the lower part of the city. Mr. Hunger
was slightly burned.
As there are various rumors in refer
ence to this unfortunate occurrence, we
have procured from Mr. Hunger the fol
lowing statement:
He had received a barrel of Coal Oil,
commonly known as Kerosine Oil, in a
very leaky condition, and was induced
to draw it off. which being completed it,
was placed in store in an out-house,
while the empty cask, with the faucet
drawn, remained on the slight elevation
made to facilitate the process of decan
tation. The servant girl took a common
oil lamp, and commenced to examine
the faucet hole, and placed the lamp
in immediate connection with the faucet
vent, and ignited the gas evolved from
the oil adhering to the sides of tire cask.
The explosion was the immediate cause
of her death.
The verdict of the Jury of Inquest,
was in accordance witli the above facts.
This is the first instance of an explo
sion of this gas that we have yet heard
of.
Kobbery.
We learn, that Mr. J. W. Jleukdiv:
the bridge*keeper, was robbed on lasi
night, of JIOO. Entrance was obtained
in Mr. Meredith’s house by means of a
false key, and obtaining the key of the
Bafe,it was easily opened and the money
abstracted. Our vigilant and energetic
policemen are on the track of the per
petrators.
Since writing the above, a negro nam
ed Lewis, belonging to Mr. Meredith.
has been arrested on suspicion, and sent
to jail.
The Victor Cools Stove.
We have once or twice taken occasion
to make favorable mention of this stove
now extensively manufactured at the
Machine Works in this city. We. are
gratified to learn that the demand for
them is constantly, and rapidly increas
ing, and that they are superseding all
others throughout the State. Salisbu
ry, & Co., of this city are the general
Agents for the sale of these stoves, and
are always prepared to fill orders to the
trade or to families. They are kept also
by S. S. Jones & Co.

We are gratified to learn that this
popular Thespian corps, whose repre
sentations were so agreeable to the

preparing to give a series of perform .n
--ces at an early period. They expect to
open at Concert Hall some night during
the present week.

While the advantages of the older
and more successful sewing machines
have been appreciated by thousand *
who have used them, the price at which
they sell, amounts to almost a prohibi
tion to the power seamstresses of the
country, who most need them. To
meet their wants, various cheap ma
chines have been brought out, and
some of them are having a great run.—
Among these we may notice the Gibb's
and "Palmetto” patterns, advertised
in to-day’s paper. We have one of the
Palmetto machines in use, in our fami
ly, and find it to work satisfactorily.
They may be seen at the store of I H.
Stearns, & Co., where also they may be
purchased. They are very neat ma
chines, and we cheerfully commend
them to the inspection of our readers.

An Escape Valve.
The whole world is a lottery, in which
all the men and women are continually
drawing blanks and prizes. Society
would cease to have any excitement—
life would have nocharms were this not
1 the case ; for mankind must have
: something to hope for, in order to ex*
. ist. • Commerce is based upon this ne
cessity of man’s nature ; and all kinds
: of business and trade arc purely specu
' lative because nothing is certain. The
. establishment of lotteries has grown
. out of the knowledge of this principle
which operates so powerfully upon so
ciety: and they will always be sanc-
I tinned and supported, because they are
I truly beneficial to a large majority of
the public, who crave exceitement Jin
matters of gain, and desire to do so
. without being subjected to the injuries
and loss of time incidental to gaming.
They are as strictly commercial as any
other business where risks are indulged
. in—for chance rules every result where
investments are made. Hence it is,
that Messrs. Swan Si Co., of Augusta,
i Georgia, who draw a lottery every Sat
} unlay, are successful. They receive by
mail, ten. five, or two dollars and a half
f r a whole, half, or quarter of a ticket,
> and they send out more than one prize
. to every ten applications—while the
ticket holder, to whom, they promptly
send, sometimes finds himself the pos
sessor of a fortune.
Melancholy.
At Philadelphia, on Monday, an in
quest was held upon the body of a young
and rather prepossessing girl named Sa
; rah Gost, who died in one of the miser
able hovels in Bedford street, from in
temperance. She was scarcely eighteen
years of age. A lad named Morris O’-
’ Brian, only thirteen years of age, died
- on Monday in Carpenter street, near
j Seventh from the effects of excessive in
ebriation. An inquest was held in his
‘ case also, and, in both, verdicts of
3 death from intemperance was rendered,
j i What a commentary upon the progress
and potency of the temperance reform !
It is predicted that the washing-out of
the river bottoms by the flood of the

“Isay, Pat, what are you about?—

NEVER SAY FAIL.
Keep pushing—bis wiser
Than sitting aside.
And dreaming and sighing,
And waiting the tide.
In life’s earnest battle
They only prevail
Who daily inarch onwaud,
And never say fail.
With an eye ever open,
A tongue that’s not dumb,
And heart that will never
To sorrow succumb,
You’ll battle and conquer
Though thousands assail :
H w strong and how mighty
i Who never say fail.
Ahead, then, keep pushing,
And elbow your way,
' Unheeding the envious,
All asses that bray ;
All obstacles vanish.
All enemies quail,
In the might oi their wisdom,
Whenever say fail.
In life’s rosy morning,
In manhood’s lair pride,
Let this be your motto,
Your footsteps to guide,
In storm and in sunshine,
Whatever assail,
We’ll onward and conquer,
And never say fail.
Beware.
We ask you to peruse the article
headed “ Resumption of Specie Pay
ments,” which we extract from the Sa
vannah Dailg Georgian. The recent re
ports of the South Carolina Banks pre
sents an alarming state of affairs, which
ought to lead the people to spurn the
bills of nearly every South Carolina
Bank as they would the bills of the
veriest wild Cat Bank now in existence.
We say now, beware what sort of
money you receive in exchange for your
produce &c. —Southern Georgian.
Astronomical Grammer.
The sun is called masculine, from its
supporting apd sustaining the moon,
, and finding her the wherewithal to
shine always as she does of a night, and
from his being obliged to keep such a
family of stars. The moon is feminine,
, because she is constantly changing.—
| The church is feminine because she is
. married to the State ; and time is mas
. culine, because he is trifled with by the
1 ladies.— Punch.
I A modern writer says: “It may
. seem strange, but it is a fact, that men
r 'generally arc much more afraid of »vo
i I men, than women of men.” Brown re
jmarks, that the fact is not “strange” at
[ | all; for in both cases the fear is propor
j tioned to the danger. Candid, but un
gallant.
