dbcnrag JUspatci i AUGU ST A. Ci A: Wednesday Evening, Slay I : 1858. | Columbus Sim. The Columbus Sun, not having reliev- j ed itself of its bilious secretions on Ed- | waud Eyeriti, lets loose a brilliant ray at our expense, because we intima ted that Mr. Everett was not invited | South to be tried for abolitionism, but came at the instance of the Southern Matron, as a venerated statesman, and distinguished orator, to advance a great national enterprise. That paper is wel-1 come to indulge its unfounded charge.-, of toadyism against ue, to its hearts content—it cannot make anybody who has read the Dispatch believe them—and we could not, by writing a column, widen his obtusity of comprehension on the subject—therefore we leave him to the enjoyment of all the laurels he has gained by accusing us of running after adventurers from the old country or the new. Contemptible as we regard toadyism of every kind, we always pre fer exaggerated praise to coarse detrac tion and unmerited abuse, which the Sun seems to take so much delight in heaping upon everything that does not j fester in its own hot-bed of sectional- j 1 ism. i ( [communicated.] s Higher Life. Men are so inclined to content them - selves with what is commonest, the j spirit and the senses so easily grow dead , to the impressions of the beautiful and the perfect—that every one should , study, by all methods, to nourish in his mind the faculty of feeling these j things. For no man can bear to be en- ( tirely deprived of such enjoyment; it is only because they are not used to taste of j j what is excellent that the generality of the j ( people take delight in silly and insipid j things, provided they are new. For this reason one ought every day, at U least, to read a good poem, see a fine j picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words, but espe cially to peruse some pages of the “Ec lectic Magazine,” which, like some tall pine tree in the Observation Mountain, • stands out clear and distinct, head and shoulders above the common growth of the literature of the times. Good people of Augusta, and stran gers from abroad, now is the very time to commence with the new volume of the ‘‘Eclectic" beginning with the May number; and if, perchance, the Agent should call on you, please not to harp upon the string of that old excuse— “ We've already more than we read,” (which we don't doubt in the least. ) but be persuaded to try for one year, at least, in addition to familiarity with American literature, access to the best productions emanating from the old homes if civilization and cultivated thou fit. rWe learn from our exchanges that the small pox has made its appear ance in Chattanooga. ..••* New York Herald on tlic Charleston Banks. The New York Herald, in a late arti cle on the resumption of specie pay ments by the Charleston Banks, says : “ The Charleston Mercury, which, as everybody knows, is diseased on the subject of the dissolution of the Union and the formation of a Southern con federacy, considers that the revulsion ‘was another of the agreeable incidents of the Union,’ in which the South was ‘convulsed by its connection with the North and, with hard hearted cruel ty, goes on to argue that, however vi tally important it may be for the inter ests of the North that the South Caro lina banks should resume specie pay ments, and whatever embarrassment their present state of disgrace may cause to the great mercantile interests of this section, the bankers of the South should keep ever in view their private duty; in a word, “ should resume when exchange is about to be in favor of the South ” We have no objection to say that it is about as sensible a sug gestion as we have ever read in the Charleston Mercury. Resuming before the exchanges were in favor of the Charleston banks, would have been about as difficult for those promising institutions as it is for a man to ride on horseback without a horse. We hope, therefore, that their managers will fol low the advice of their newspaper coun sellor, and will not resume before they can. As to this section of the country, we will bear up against a prolongation of the South Carolina bank disgrace.— We are a people of great fortitude in this meridian, and we will nerve our selves to endure a few weeks more ago ny. Hitherto our banks have gone on bravely, just as if there had been no trouble at Charleston; of course this was all affectation, but we will try to keep up a semblance of ease and indif ference a little longer. Don’t let the Charleston bankers worry themselves on our account. We will bear up. Treasury Prospects. The veteran Washington correspon dent (Ion) in his last letters to the Sun, j remarks as follows respecting the reven ue prospects of the government: “ It may be remarked that there is more money in the country at this time than at any former day, and trade is about to revive in all its branches, when the revenue is likely to come in in floods.” — National Intelligencer. In floods! The foreign imports here in New York city, for April, 1858, show for the month of April, but little more than half the amount of April, 1858-57; and, therefore, do not indicate much of a flood. Thus: 1856. 1857. 1858. April $20,057,836 $21,218,310 $11,169,025 The decrease in 1858, since 1857, has been for January : : 7 $10,901,013 February : : : 16,315,449 March : : : 9,405,802. April : : : 10,049,293 $46,071,557 A decrease of more than 50 per cent, since the corresponding month of 1857 ! This does not look like a flood in New York,, where nearly two-thirds of the imports are made. I The Treasury, the fact is, has, and I will, all the summer, have to go through j depletion. As the next crop comes for ward, and starts business, merchants ! will begin their European orders. If the Secretary of the Treasury makes any ; other calculation than this, he will be high and dry before Congress reassem | hies. Better now for him that he be I preparing for a loan, if necessary, on ' more Treasury notes.— New York Express. Southern Commercial Convention. Deported Expressly for the Augusta Dress. Montgomery, May 10, 1858. Convention met at 12 o’clock. The States represented having held prelimi nary meetings for the purpose of organ izing their General Delegations.

The time of the Convention was oc cupied in discussing rules of order, the rules to govern the Convention, and matters of no interest generally. Until the Committee appointed at the last Convention,to report on the Slave trade, and its kindred subjects were called up on to report, when (Mr. Spratt of Charleston, S. C., read a very elaborate and able report, on the subject, conclu ding with the following resolutions ; 1. Resolved, That Slavery is right and j that being right there can he no wrong i in tlie natural means to its promotion. 2. Resolved, That it is expedient and i proper that the foreign Slave Trade | should be re-opened, and that this Con vention will lend its influence in every | legitimate way to that end. 3.

The closing quotations for Consols werel-8d tol-4d. lower than on Thursday. A sudden arid increased demand for money, to day created a further dullness. The unsettled position of the government, and the possibility of an early dissolu tion of the Derby Ministry in case of the defeat of the India bill also acted unfavorably. The London Morning Herald of this date says that the opposition last night to the ministerial plan was not formi dable. The Daily News says that there is not the slightest doubt, if Lord Derby is defeated on any important question, that the cabinet will be dissolved. Montgomery Convention. . SECOND DAY.

Pryor, of Va., concluded his speech in , opposition to the resolutions in favor of ! re-opening the slave trade. He spoke e one hour and a half.

DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach I lias 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 1 the sufferer, while his digestive organization was paralyzed ami unstrung, becomes, under the ' wholesome revolution created in the system, the basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sull'erer, 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 paralysis, [borne down and dispirited by that ' terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of ‘ 1 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 i tion and thought—derives immediate benefit .! from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, .1 invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous j organization. ■ j Females who have tried it are unanimo-s in '! declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that ij woman has ever received from the bauds of | medical men. Morse's Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im i mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite. 1 While it renews the strength of the digestive i powers it creates a desire for the solid materia! I which is to be subjected to their action. As ar. appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. | If long life aud the vigor necessary to its en ! joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of I precious worth ! Its beneficial effects are not confined to either ■ sex or to any age.

To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible malady. There are many perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu tion that they think themselves beyond the reach of medicine. Let not even those despair.
