Ait Interest in (lie Augusta liispuleii
for Sale.
I find that the growing business of
the Dispatch imposes upon me more du
ties than my health can endure. To a
man well adapted to become a help meet j
in the establishment, I will sell an
interest in it, at a bargain. The paper
is paying forty per cent, on the price l
asked for it, and is increasing very rap
idly in circulation and business.
I would like to sell to one capable of
conducting the business during the sum
mer, that I might devote a few months
to travel and correspondence.
There is no opening equal to this
(considering the investment required)
in the whole range of journalism, in
this section. Address

A not her Dog I.cst.
It is said that “woes come not sin
gly—woes cluster.” So, one fire, one
murder, one suicide, seems almost al- ■
ways followed by another. Such at !
least is a common remark, and it seems i
equally true of dogs, for it is only a few
days since wo chronicled the loss of a
valuable "white setter,” and to-day j
our “special notice” column conveys |
the melancholy intelligence that a fe- !
male Grey Hound has come tip missing.
As every dog has its day, we presume!

Fourth of July.
The anniversary of American Inde-j
pendence is near at hand, and in many!
towns and cities in various parts of the
country, preparations are being made:
for appropriate celebrations. Will noth
ing be done in Augusta, to call up and
strengthen the associations connected
with that occasion? Our military and
fire department would make an impos
ing demonstration, and we have no
doubt, some patriotic individual might
be found to give an oration. Coming
asit does in the midst of summer sol
stice, it affords a refreshing period for a
holiday, and it would be a beautiful
••ustom if every town, village, am!

Presbyterian Church.
In the General Assembly, Iriday
last, the Rev. Mr. Coe, Secretary of
Church Extension Committee, presen
ted a report of the action of the com
mittee during the year past, of which
the following is a summary :
The receipts from all sources during
the past year exceed those of the pre
vious year nearly SISOO. 018 churches
have sent in their contributions. The
amount appropriated to churches this
year is nearly 810,000 above that distri
buted the past year. The applications
for velief required a fund $12,060 larger
than what would have sufficed last year.
The balance in the treasury at the close
of last year was $8,034 58. 'Hie re
ceipts from April 1, 18:>7, to April 2,
1858, amount to $24,741 15; the ex
penditures to $24,381 03-leaving un
appropriated balance in the treasury of
$8,991 70. 70 churches have been
aided in the construction of church edi
fices. 47 of this number cost from SSOO
to $2500 ; 22 from $2,500 $5,000; 7 over
SSOOO. During the two and a half
years the committee have been at work!
thev have aided in the construction ot j
205 church edifices. The work of the
committee, it is evident, has been
among the poor. The committee have
knowledge of 450 organized churches
whichjhave no houses of worship. The!
average contribution to a needy church i
has been SIOO. The operations of tlicl
committee have been conducted without
collecting agents or a corps of salaried
officers.

Tile Kansan Press on the English

AM the anti-Administration papers-*-

men, we quote:
Lucompton is, therefore, passed—pro
vided the people of Kansas vote to ac- j

Leavenworth Republican, May 6 th.
The Government does not own land
enough to buy up the people of Kansas.
The originators and abettors of the
movement.are boasting that the inhab
itants of this territory would barter
their hopes in this life and the next for
a garb at Uncle Sam's domain. What
a pitiable mistake! —Leavenworth Ledger,
May Ith.
Our duty, as it appears to us, is plain
: though it be painful. With that devo
tion and magnanimity characteristic of
the Free State party, we should drop all
j thought of existing State governments,
go, like one man, into the election un
der the English bill, vote the land bribe,
witli its Lecompton appendage, into
eternity, and then urge forward em
igration, so that before another year
rolls around we may count a population
guaranteeing our admission into the
confederation.— Leavenworth Times, Mag
6th.
We have too much confidence in the
people of Kansas to believe that they
will accept any such proposition. We
believe that they would rather remain
a Territory eternally, than to come into
the-Union under such insulting and de
grading condition. What! be bought
up like a flock of sheep? Sacrifice our
principles, for the triumph of which we
have been so earnestly condending, for
a fine slice of the public lands? Away
with such an idea ! — Leavenworth City
Ledger, Mag lilh.
The fiat of the people is just as surely
pronounced as though it had been her
alded by trumpet voice from every bill
top that diversifies our beautiful prai-
I lies. No new need be made.

SENATE.
Mr. Sewqrd offered a resolution, di- I
l recting the institution of inquiry as to
whether any legislation is necessary to
j empower the President to prevent Brit
. i'll aggressions on American vessels in
the Gulf of Mexico.
Air. Mason objected to the introduc
tion of the resolution, and it was, there
fore, laid over under the rule.
Mr. Douglass made an unsuccessful
attempt to take up the Texas Boundarv
hill.
The general appropriation bill was
taken up and an act ive debate was again
had on the amendment to pay Mr.
Rives’ reporters.
HOUSE.
The House proceeded to the consider
ation of the resolution of the Commit
tee of Accounts, proposing the dismis-G
! sal of Mr, Hackney, the Doorkeeper, :
for alleged official misconduct.
A statement from Mr. Hackney was
read saying that some of the charges
of the committee were incorct-ci in
point of fact, and others greatly mag- j
nified, besides being exparte, and ask- •
ing a thorough investigation.
Mr. Stephens said Mr. Hackney had a j
right to be heard and moved that his ;
request be granted.
Mr. Kunkle, of Maryland, remarked
that Air. Ili'-Ckney should be dismissed,
if for no other reason, for gross and de
liberate abuse in exceeding authority
in appointing subordinates and increas
ing the expenses of the folding room,
from six or eight hundred dollars to
two thousand or two thousand five hun
dred dollars per month.
Mr. Spinner alluded to the fact that
{ false entries were made on the books of
the folding room. The statement for j
April was torn out and a new one was 1
made, after Mr. Hackney discovered
that the committee had entered into an
investigation, The original statement
was since found, and admitted by j.iv.
Hackney, showing a large overcharge
from the proper amount in money and
documents.
Mr. Kunkle. of Maryland, resumed,
saying that the statement read from
I Hackney was entirely untrue, and
| caused to be read a letter from a late ;
messenger addressed to the Speaker, in i
which the writer remarks that he knew !
no reason why lie was discharged unless :
it was a refusal to surrender a portion
j of his salary to Mr. Hackney.
I The House then adopted tb& resolu
! tion fur the immediate dismissal of Mr. '
Hackney as DoOokeeper of the House — j

An election for a successor will be
held to-morrow.
Tuckerman, tlie mail robber, entered

Direct Trade.
The New Orleans Crescent speaking of
the subjects prominently before the
Convention in session at Montgomery,
laughs at the Dudley Mann project and
proceeds to remark :
| “ Dut if tlie Montgomery Convention
i wishes to inaugurate anything useful
jon the subject of direct trade, let tlie
j members thereof recommend the con
struction of lines of moderately sized
I piopellers, to the Southern people, to
[Sail from the more important Southern
ports to proper European ports, and
enlist the sympathies and pecuniary
■ aid of oureitizens in behalf of the enter
prise, and a great end will be accom
plished. Charleston could easily sup
port a line. So could Savannah. So
could Mobile ; and New Orleans could
easily support three lilies, if matters
were arranged in a practical, business
like manner ; and more lines would be
demanded by tlie wants of commerce
as soon as the lines referred to had de
monstrated their usefulness and per
manence by their success.”
A Sensible View.
Air. Everett, in a letter apologizing
for not attending the dedication of a
new school house, closes thus :
AVe must not rest satisfied with a gen
eral impression that our schools are in a
very satisfactory condition. There is
some danger that showy accomplish
ments, such as declamation aud English
composition, often prematurely attempt
ed, and dramatic exhibitions—which
seem to me wholly out of place at school
will occupy the time and thoughts of
teachers and pupils, to tlie neglect of ]
thorough instruction in reading, wri- j
ting, arithmetic, grammar, geography, !
history and Christian morality, aud!
other branches of a solid English educa-1
tion.
The Good Wife.—The influence of a ;
good wife is immense. The power of a !
wife for good or evil is irresistible.— !
Home must be the seat of happiness or ■
it must be forever unknown. A good
wife is to a man wisdom, and courage,
and strength and endurance. A hail
one is confusion, weakness, discomfiture I
and despair. No condition is hopeless, |
when tlie wife possesses firmness, decis- i
ion aud economy. There is no outward
prosperity which can counteract indo !
lence, extravagance and folly at home. \

BP The Great Problem
Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
element, is relieved by a single
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude j
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen t<>
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was 1
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the <
wholesome revoluth n 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 j
paralysis, fborne down and dispirited by that
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any oilier pain
or disability arising from the unnatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo- '
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
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 J
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has ever received from the hands oi
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
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 do
! bility or from the weakness of a single organ
| will all find immediate aud 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
, against that terrible m ilady. There are many
i perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
i tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
:of medicine. Let not even those despair. Tito
; Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
ference to the causes, and will not only remove
j the di-order itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

THE LIVER
i INVIGORATOR!
' PREPARED BY DR. SANFORD* 8
l COMPOUNDED ENTIRELY FROM
G-U MS,
TS ONE or THE BEST PURGATIVE
JL and Liver Medicines now before the public,
that act-' as a CATHARTIC', easier, milder, and
more etfcctual than any other medicine known.
' It is not only a Cathartic, but a Liver remedy,
i ’ acting first- on the Liver to eject its morbid niat
, ter, then on the stomach and bowels l<; carry oil
j that matter, thus accomplishing two purposes
effectually, without any of the painful feeling?
experienced in the operations ol most Cathartics.
J It strengthens the system at the same 1 me that
iit purges it; and when taken daily in xnodcratt
I-loses, will strengthen and build .t up with urn
u-ual rapidity.
The Liver is one of |
tho priiicipal regula
tors of t lie human
body, and when it per
forms its functions
well, the powers of tile p
system are fully de
veloped. The stomach
is almost entirely de- J
pendent outlie healthy
action of the Liver for j
the proper perform- ,
anee of its functions ; 1
when tho stomach is *
at fault, and tho whole
system sutlers iu con
sequence of one organ
—the Liver,— having
ceased to do its duty
For the diseases of that
organ, one of the pro
prietors has made it
his study, in a prac
tice of more than 2C
! years, to find some re
j medy w herewith to
i counteract the many
I derangements towhich
it is liable
I To prove that this
remedy is at last
found, any porson
troubled with I.iver
Complaint, in any of its
forms, has but to try J i
bottle, and conviction
is certain.
These Hums remove i
all morbid or bad mat-"
ter from the system, -
'supplying in their I
place a healthy How oft i
bile, invigorating the j
stomach, causing food||
Ito digest well, purify
ing [tho Moan, giving
Item* and health to the
(whole machinery, le
j moving the cause ol
the disease,— -effecting
a radical cure,
j Bilious attacks are
cured, and. what is
better, prevented by
the occasional use of
J the Liver Invigorator.
| One dose after eating
lis sufficient to relieve
[the stomach and pre-
Ivent tho food from ri
jsingand souring.
Only one dose taken
[before retiring, pre
Ivents Nightmare.
Only oue dose taken
at night, loosens the
bowels gently, and
cures Costiveness.
One dose taken after
eacli meal will cure
Dyspepsia.
One dose of two tea
-poonfuls will always
relieve Sick Headache.
Oue bottle taken for
female obstructions,
removes the cause of
the disease, and makes
a perfect cure.
Only one dose imme
diately relieves Cholic,
while
One dose often re
peated is a'sure cure
tor Cholera Morbus,
and a preventive oi
Cholera.
Only one bottle is
»» fowl . S ■ ■ a B Car w- S'
needed to throw out ol the system the effects ol
medicine after a long sickness.
One bottle taken for Jaundice removes all sal
lowness or unnatural color from the skin.
One dose taken a short time be'ore eating
gives vigor to the appetite, and makes food di
gest well.
One dose often repeated cures Chronic Inar
rhooa in its worst forms, while Summer ami
Bowel Complaints yield almost to the first dose.
One or two doses cures attacks caused by'
Worms in children, there is no surer, safer, or
speedier remedy iu the world, as it never fails.
A lew bottles cures Dropsy, by exciting the
absorbents.
We take pleasure in recommending this medi
cine as a preventive for Fever and Ague. Chill
Fever, and all Fevers of a Bilious Type. It ope

most too great to believe. It cures as it by ma
