'local matters. Dr. Boynton. The fourth lecture of this distinguish ed Geologist came off last night accord ing to announcement. We have room only to present a very brief and imper fect synopsis of the entertainment. The subject for the evening was the Introduction of the Ancient Orders ol Life upon our planet. The original condition of the globe was not favora ble to the existence of animal life. All the elements by which life is sustained were here, but a series of chemical and mechanical changes were necessary be fore life could be introduced. Referring to the Mosaic history of oui world, it was observed that the great command, “ Let there be light,” wa? not a creative command. The work ot creation was already complete ; this was the introduction of light upon the hith erto dark surface of the earth. Then came the separation of light from dark ness, which was effected then as now by the rotation of the earth. In accor. dance with this representation of tht manner in which life was produced— everything which we find for a depth of CO,OOO feet is hut the remains of animals which lived in water. But these are are different in different strata; the sys tem of life, the remains of which we find in the lower Silurian rocks are not the same as in the rocks above. To these rocks, distingushed by the differ ent remains found in them, names have been given from more celebrated locali ties. The Potsdam Sandstone of New York is the lowest fossiliferous stratum in ex istence, and contains the lowest types of life. This is followed by the Calcife rous sandstone, clayslate, bird’s eye mar. ble, Sec , to the Medina sandstone which extends along the shore of Lake Ontario. Above this is the Clinton group, the different layers of which, from a few inches to many feet in thickness can be traced along both sides of Niagara Riv er. The rotten shales and the Onondaga limestone, which succeed, bring us half way through the upper Silurian rocks. In every one of these strata new orders of life aro discovered, but all till we reach the coal beds are such as lived only in the seas. All these layers are most beautifully exhibited in New York but wo r.ccognize them again in Ken tucky at the Ohio Falls; they also cross under the bed of Niagara River, and re appear it: the lead country west of the Mississippi. Dr. Boynton sketched the orders of the anima'. creation, beginning with two handed men, the highest, passing to the four-handed monkeys and descending through tiic carnivorous, herbivorous I and insectivorous tribes, the birds, the reptiles—beginning with lizards and al ligators and ending with the batrachia, or frogs, the fishes, the artieulata— shrimps, etc, the molluscs, with or without shells, and the radiata to the hydra, the lowest order of being. The greatest abundance of animal life in the lowest creations was pointed out, so abundant that some rocks, the Lockport marble for instance, are mere ly a mass of petrified animals of the radiate class. When we reach the re gion of the erustaceous species we find their proportion small compared with ♦he radiata, and so on. The habit of the Crustacea, of shedding their shells each successive season until they attain their full growth, was noticed, and in this an explanation is found of the fact that for a hundred miles a formation containing remains of these species may be traced without finding a perfect shell. No vertrebrated animals are found in the lower Silurian formation, hut in the Old Red Sandstone we encounter the re mains of fishes. There are four types pf fishes : the etenoids, represented by the perch, the cycloids by the salmon, the ganoi'ls by the gar, and the placoids by the sturgeon. The lowest classes have done and ale still doing most to wards the formation of rocks. In the tropical sca6 the coral is still at work constructing islands and future conti nents. Yet corals are everywhere to he found, indicating the former existence ■of a tropical climate all over the globe. Thus coral rocks arc met with in India, but all of old species ; tiie present spe- . ties are confined to a limit of twenty degrees on each side of tire equator, where, on the coast of New Caledonia, 1 they have constructed a wall one thou- i sand two hundred miles in extent.— ' Their labors are confined to the level of ♦be ;ea, but the slighest warping of the i surface raises some portion out of wa- ] tor, decay takes place and fertility en 1 sues. We have uo time to follow the j lecturer in his interesting description of the process by which coral reefs are raised above the surface and become 1 first the seat of vegetation, and finally * the abode of man. This was illustra- ted by a beautiful picture representing the surf-beaten coral islets with then feathery crown of palms, We aro also compelled to pass over | the concluding portion of the Doctor's ] lecture in which lie traced tho process < by which the Fails of Niagara have re ceded—in n period of perhaps twenty eight thousand, perhaps forty-eight ■ thousand years—from their original to their present position, and discussed the probable history of the falls, for thou sands of years to,come. This, too, was illustrated by a faithful andstic view of the fails as seen from Table Rook. 1 Fast Youths. Two or three juveniles of the Young American persuasion were canght the Dthcr night attempting to move signs in the lower end of Broad street. As soon as they found themselves observed, they sloped.

Tribute of Respect. At a called Meeting of Augusta Fire Company No. 5, bold at their Engine house, May, 26th, 1858, Capt. I). Gal-' vis in the chair, the following pieamble ind resolutions were unanimously adopt id: Whereas, It hath pleased Almighty Jod in his wise Providence to take from ■ unong us our beloved brother Fireman lons Rki.nky. who has been among us iince the organization of the Company, we therefore bow in humble submission to His divine will, and to record a tri oute of respect to the memory of one ■ chat was so well beloved among his bro ther Fireman, and all those that knew aim, Resolved, That as a mark of respect for the deceased, we will wear the usual ! oadge of mourning for the space of thirty days; that our Engine be draped in mourning, and that a black page of the minutes of the Company be dedica ted to his memory. Resolved, That we deeply sympathise 1 with his bereaved family and friends, and that a copy of these resolutions be . furnished to the wife of the deceased. Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting he published in the city papers. James Magabahan, Secretary. Max Over the Niagara Falls.—A f man went over the Falls of Niagara yes . terday. Hu came from the Canada side at Chippewa in a sail boat nearly to the American shore, and was in the act of 1 returning when he went into the rap ids. It was thought by those who saw . him from the shore, that he wasimpru , dent in the management of the boat, ind depended upon his sail long after lie should have takcu it down, and re ■ anted to iris oars to save himself. It i is said (hat the boat was actually iu the f rapids before the sail was lowered, andj then it was too late. Who the man! was is not known on tho American side.

Previous to the adoption of the pre sent Hag by Congress, the number of ; stripes in the old tlag bad been increased to eighteen, according to the number of States admitted into the Union.— Captain Reid recommended that the stripes he reduced to the original num ber of thirteen States, and to form the number of stars representing the whole number of States into one great star inj tho Union, adding one star for every I new State, thus giving the significant meaning to the flag, sombolically ex pressed, of “E. Plurihns Unum.”— This design of Captain Reid's was adopted iu committee, hut the bill did not pass until the next Congress in ‘lBlB. ■ Manliness.

The mob grew quite formidable and had commenced riotous proceedings. The military was called out and tho riot suppressed by the apprehension of the leaders. Tho Joint Committee on Naval Affairs have agreed to a bill, which they will report on Monday, the 25th, in favor of increasing the pay of officersiii the navy (including all grades) twenty dollars per month, and giving two extra rations to tiie officers in command. Governor Willard of Ind., is lying very low with a severe attack of pneu uionia, or congestion of the lungs.— His recovery is doubtful. G. A. Trenholm, Esq., was unani mously elected on the 25th, by the Di rectors of the South Carolina Railroad Company to fill the vacancy existing on their Board. An old lady, residing at Concord, Ohio, by the name of Guthrie came to her death, some ter: days ago, from eat ing leaves of the pie plant for “greens.” • • Some sixty children, all dressed alike, gay and light hearted juveniles, about two-thirds of whom arc girls, arrived in Chicago on Thursday, per tiie Michi gan Southern railroad, destined to go still further West. Miss Darby, the daughter of the old man who killed C. H. Stone, her alleged seducer, in New Orleans, is noiv" a maniac. Stone is dead, the faillier in prison, and the women crazy. It is stated that in the Jatc snip of the assets of the well known JohnjTtiouip con, broker, less than $12,000 were real ized, though subsequent to his failure, his assets were reported to amount to over $200,000. Robert Gallup, a Revolutionary hero. j and the last survivor of tiie Fort Gris wold massacre, died Greene, Chenangoi County yesterday, at tiie advanced age of 98 years. The French Government is seriousiy| thinking of importing 100,000 negroes into Algeria, to give an impetus to pro duction them J Port uguese Outrages. A Traveler writing from R t. Philip de lie.iguela, West Const of Africa, says : “About ten months ago a row occur red at Little Fish Bay, between some sailors of an American whaleship and some Protuguese, on shore, in which a Portuguese was stabbed with a knife, not 6o severely, however, but that the man, after a confinment of one day, was well enough to be out, and actually shipped on hoard of the same whaler, and went to sea in a few days. Upon this row, three of the American sailors were rudely arrested by the soldiers, beaten over their heads and backs with sticks, and thrust into prison, and there kept for several weeks without even a hearing in the case. The captain ap plied to the Governor for their reiease, or at least trial, but he would only grant it by the extortion of a sum of moneys which the captain could not meet, though offering to sell all in his power to obtain the release of his men, the | captain was obliged to leave them in prison. ; After many weeks they were put on ; board a Portuguese brig-of- war or trans port, and told they would be taken to Loando, and delivered over to the Am erican Consul there. They were kept on board for several weeks and at last were transferred to the prison of the fort in this place, where there is no representative of our Goverment, and with no reason or plea given the victims of Despotic Mobrocacy in “the reign of terror.” AVith no one to consult, no friend to advise, nor a soul to care for them, they lingered on in the prison house of Christian Portugal—in this dead ly clime, for weeks burning with the fever in the hospital, then back again to starvation and suffering in the prison walls, until after many months one died- on his cruel treatment and wrongs, and another, but for his forced release, would in a few weeks have followed him.

The poor creature, Crockett, who is to be hung shortly for his participation in the murderof old Mr. Landrum near Atlanta, for the sum of fifty-five cents, was brought to this unfortunate end by habits of idleness and dissipation.- Judge Bull, in passing soutence upon him, conjured the young men present to take warning. They cannot be too \ often warned. Idleness is crime! In the I parable of the ten talents this doctrine is clearly developed. It does not ap pear that the servant who buried his talent was in the habit of committing crimes, and yet be is called “wicked.” Why? Because lie was lazy—idle.— Athens Watchman. Mr. Everett’s Southern Tour.—Mr. Everett lias returned from his Southern tour. Since the month of November he has repeated his discourse on “The Character of Washington," for tho ben fit of the Mount Vernon Fund, twenty three times, with an aggregate net re ceipt of $14,648, and his address on “Charity,” fourteen times, for the ben efit of various charitable institutions, with an aggregate net receipt of $12,- 433. The net proceeds of his oratorical labors for the last six months, for tiic benefit of the Mount Vernon fund and various charitable institutions, is $27,- 078. We saw a good anecdote the other day about long preaching. A lady took her son,of some five or six years, to church. After the minister had been preaching about half an hour, the little fellow grew sleepy and began to nod. The mother roused him into attention sever al times by pinching. But as it seemed \ a hopeless case, she concluded to let him sleep undisturbed. After the little fellow had his nap out, he awoke, and < saw the minister still holding forth.— He looked up in his mother's face, and innocently asked—“ Mother, is it this ‘ Sunday night, or is it next Sunday night ! ” t The trial of Mrs. Abigail Gardner, for i poisoning her husband, the late Post- : master at Hingham, which has occupied i the Supreme Court here during the week ended this morning by a verdict of mur < der in the second degree.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING CCR- I DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach i has lost the power of duly converting food into a i life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single - course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric ; re acquires its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to | o*© sufferer, while his digestive organization was 5 Paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the wholesome revolution created in the system, the , basis of activity, strength and health. > The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the t acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux . or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter , r0r8 ? wakened by periodical tits, threatened with | t paralysis, (-borne down and dispirited by that fc ten iblelassitude which proceeds from a lack ol i nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain \ or disability arising from the unnatural condition j the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member wa! 1 the source of sensation, mo l tion a,,( t 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 k declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that » woman ha 3 ever received from the hands ot " medical men. j Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite. P While it renews the strength of the digestive j powers it creates a desire for tho solid material |. which is to bo subjected to their action. As at: j appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia. If long life and the vigor necessary to its en i joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed ol i precious worth , Its beneficial effects are not confined to either S 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 l sion, the individual suffering from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ will all find immediateand permanent relief from . the use of this incomparable renovator. To , those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailiug safe guard . against that terrible malady. There are many ; perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu- I tion that they think themselves beyond tho reach of medicine. Let not even those despair.

She had been sick and pin ing away for months. Went off to be doctored at great expense, but got no better. She then j commenced taking your pills, which soon cured I her, by expelling largo quantiti s of worms (dead) from her body. They afterwards cured her and our two chi.dren of bloody dysentery. One of our neighbors hud it bad, and my wife cured him with two dostt of your pills, while ot ers around us paid from five to twenty dol lars doctors’ bills, aud lost much time, without ting cured ent rely even then. Such a medi cine a» yours, which is actually good and honest, will be prized here. GEO. J. GRIFFIN, Postmaster. Indigestion and Impurity of the Blood. From the Rev. J. V.

Throughout every town, and almost overy ham let of the American States, its wonderful cures of pulmonary complaints have made it already known.
