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 S. A. Atkinson. Will Exchanges notice.

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! that “Cora” tvillin duo time conic hack to her appreciating master. __ . 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! hamlet in the !;.' nJ w°tri (l so regard it. 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. * -®. —. “ Where the Wood Pigeons Breed.” The pigeon roost in Decatur county, Indiana, extends over a distance of twenty eight miles ; it is about fourteen miles witlq,. The birds have not nested at roost for thirty years until this sp'.ing. Over the vast extent of country -Nwery tree has from ten to fifteen nests.

A poor wife “dears ' and “my loves”,her husband, and would not sew a button on his coat to keep him from freezing to death. The man who stoutly objected to his wife’s learning to skate, has, at length, concluded to Id her slide. The house in which Sir Isaac Newton was born atJWoolsthorpe, near Grant ham, England, is about to be pulled down, anrigit is understood that a scien tific establishment is to be erected on the site. The Library of the Boston Musical Education Society was recently sold to the highest bidder by order of the sheriff'. Tile Kansan Press on the English Bill. AM the anti-Administration papers-*- an(lnhere are but few of this sort—de nounce the English bribe. As a speci men, we quote: Lucompton is, therefore, passed—pro vided the people of Kansas vote to ac- j cept a proffered landgmb : otherwise ! we remain in a territorial condition un ’ll have ninety-three thousand in habitants. Os course we remain a territory ! 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. | The unfair submission of the Lecoinp I ton Constitution will not shield it ; the | people will strike through the ordinance j to bury the lance of their just indigna j tion deep in the heart of the swindle.—• ! Quintlaro Chin do U’an, Mag Sill. The Kansas correspondent of the St. Louis Republican, also says : It is now pretty much settled that the Democrats of Kansas are to vote, j unite with the conservative, anti-nigger j free-soilets, and kill the Leavenworth I bastard ou the 18th inst. THIRTY-FIFTH CONGRESS. Washington, May 17, 1858. j 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 yeas 141, nays 34. An election for a successor will be held to-morrow. Tuckerman, tlie mail robber, entered the State Prison on Thursday, the 13th, ! to commence his twenty-one years term 1 of imprisonment. He requested the ; New Haven jailor to lay away his clothes carefully in camphor, so that ■ he might have them when he came ■ out. Tuckerman requested the Warden ' j of the State Prison to place a carpet on J the floor of his cell, but he was inforni . | ed that it was against the rules of the i institution to adorn the stone floor with J any such superfluities. ;: Since tae suspension of the Collins * j steamers, the trips of English or Cunard "j steamers have averaged thirteen or 1 fourteen days, saving S3OOO in fuel each trip. r! “ What was the use of the eclipse ?” -1 asked a young lady. “ Oh, it gave the - sun time for reflection,” replied a wag. 1 ! The rumor that the Mormons are leav .j| ing Salt Lake City for the White Moun tains is not credited. s 1 Women are seldom sailors but they sometimes command smacks. Selling papers on Sunday has been i stopped by Mayor Henry, of Pliiladel - phia. The entire property of the Portland :i Manufacturing Company, at Saccarappa, Me., lias been sold for $32,500. 1 ( Nothing had been decided in tire case o of tlie two American vessels seized at e the Guano Islands, for loading under " Vivanco charters. 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. \ j No spirit can long endure bad domestic j | influence. I The amount of guano exported from : | the Chinchas, during the month of j March, was 29,722 tons register, as fol-j jlows: To England 20,449, to France; 11,989, to .Mauritius 1,609, to the United ; i States 5,015. _— Which can travel the fastest, heat or i cold ?

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 I£>SS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush •of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil i ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self-de ■ si ruction, fear ofinsanity, hypochondriasis, dys ' pepsia. general prostration, irritability, nervous mv-\ inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe j males, decay of the propagating functions, hys i teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of , ( the heart, ini potency, etc., from j whatever cause arising, it is, if there is uny reli ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly infallible.

' 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.
