i Editorial Assistance.
| It gives us much satisfaction to an
• nounce that we have secured the ser
f vices of Samuel M. Thompson, Esq., for
i many years connected with the Constitu
l tionaliat in this city, as Commercial and
s News Editor of the Evening Dispatch.
1 We have long felt the need of a com*
' patent assistant in these departments,
and congratulate our readers that we
have seemed one so well known as an
, accomplished ntwapaper man, and so well
qualified to advance the claims of the
Evening Dispatch as an enterprising and
reliable medium of commercial and gen-
V: eral intelligence.

? We are using one of these new
.j lamps, placed on our table by Messrs.
S. S. Jones & Co., and find it the most
‘ agreeable substitute for gas that we have
seen, and very similar to it in appear
ance, while it is more convenient for
portable uses, and less expensive. It is
simply the gas from the common turn
ing fluid, generated as the lamp burns—
and may be used in any fluid lamp, by
getting a burner instead of the old tube
and wicks. To persons on the band
Hills, or in any locality having no gas
works, this will be found a desirable
light. Messrs. Jones & Co, have on
hand a large stock of lamps, embracing
almost every variety.
Dr. Hoynton—Concert Unit.
To-night closes the series of lectures
on Geology, and is the last opportunity
that will be offered to hear this gentle
man. His subject will be the Crealim 0/
Man and Human, and God’s Rest from his
Labors.
The lectures of Dr. Boynton have
been attended by largo and appreciative
audiences from the first, lie possesses
all the qualities of an attractive speak
er, and presents his subject in a style
adapted to the comprehension of every
hearer. He is doing much to popular
ize science, and to create a taste for the
investigation of scientific principles.
To the masses, the opportunity of ac
quiring such knowledge by other means
is limited, and therefore we always hail
the advent of a scientific lecturer as a
great public advantage, and earnest
ly hope that the success which lias
everywhere crowned the labors of Dr. B.
will induce him to repeat his Southern
tour at no distant dav.
Petit Jurors.
'The care exercised by our County
Sheriff, and his indefatigable Deputy,
during the late term of the Superior
Court, in the selection of jurymen, was
generally observed and commended by
those who were in. attendance. There
has been great negligence in many
places in this matter, which has detract
ed much from the administration of
justice, and we feel that those officers
who are vigilant and faithful in keep
ing the unworthy and incompetent from
our jury boxes, deserve the most cordial
appreciation by the press and all good
citizens,
CHy Court.
This body has been in session during
the week. After disposing of the com
mon law docket, the court was occupied
on the various indictments for selling
liquor and trading with slaves. Os the
forty-five true bills for those offences,
about twenty-five have been disposed
of, most of them pleading guilty. The
fines range from $lO to SSO, and costs,
according to circumstances.
The following is the list of Grand Ju
rors for the present week :
L. A. Duo as, Foreman..

The defence of one of the accused —a
German citizen—a son of St. Cris
pin, who sells lager beer, and makes
boots and shoes—caused. some merri
ment in the court room. Hans has, wi
learn, been—as most of the Germans are
—a good and orderly citizen ; lie has, to
use bis own language—lived “ twelve
years in town and fourteen in thecity”—
and paid diligent attention to the soles
as well as the stomachs of his fellows.—
This fact he wished to impress upon the
Judge, and he would evidently have
made a very good speecli in his native
Teutonic, though he found it very diffi
cult to “ lay himself open ” so as to In
understood in English. But he wai
dealt with lightly, and came off ahoui
as well as those who feed the Anglo
Saxon Knights of the green bag.
Almost a Serious Accident.
We understand that two negro men.
who were yesterday working with a jacl
screw on the railroad bridge, were pn
cipitated into the water by the sen v
losing itsboid. Luckily, assistance was
near at band, or both would have In < n
drowned. One of them, when picked
up, was nearly exhausted.
Ourselves,
J he life of an Editor isan arduous one,
tis true but the bitter is sometimes
accompanied with the sweet, in thej!
shape of occasionally a kind remem-!:
brance from an old friend, who know-! 1
ing that our time is precious, sometimes
anticipates our very wants. This was
our fortune this morning. We were ■
regretting that we had missed the op
portunity of testing the quality of
Schneider's Clam Soup, when 10, and be
hold ! who should enter our sanctum
but a boy from bis saloon, with a waiter,
laden with several bowls of delicious
Clam Soup, with necessary accompani
ments. Reader it would have made 1
you feel had you seen us partake
of it. We can assure you that it was
not many minutes before we were scra
ping at the bottom of the bowl, in
search of more. Whenever you see in
our columns “ Clam Soup served up to
morrow at 11 o’clock, at Schneiders, ”
if you do not pay him a visit, all wc
have to say is, you will miss a dainty
dish not enjoyed by mortals every day.

Distressing Casualty.
A little son of Mr. Flurry, of Ham
burg, aged about nine years, met with
a horrid death on Tuesday morning
last. We understand he got out of bed
about seven o’clock in the morning,
and taking up a camphene lamp,
emptied its contents on the floor. He
then proceeded to his brothers room,
procured a match, ignited the camphene,
and was immediately enveloped in the
flame. Before assistance could reach
him, he was so badly burned, that he
expired about two o'clock the same day.
This should be another warning to
parents, whocontinueto use this danger- >
ous fluid, to keep it out of the reach of
their children and careless servants.
Fine Cattle.
A fine drove of Beeves passed our of
fice yesterday afternoon. Should any j
of them fortunately meet with an accident
in'being driven on board the cars for
•diipment to our lucky sister city—
Charleston—our citizens may look out
for some good Beef in market.
City Mortality.
The number of deaths in the city last
week was six—four whites, two blacks.
Cotton Cultivation In Algeria.
The Debats admits, in the course of
an article on the cultivation of cotton
in Algeria, that the results hitherto ob
tained by planters have by no means re
■dized the extravagant hopes originally
entertained in France. In spite of gov
ernment premiums, extending from
oOOf. to 20,000 f., and every species of
official encouragement, the cultivation
does not prosper. In 1854, the planta
tions covered an extent of 4250 acres ;
in 1855, 0250 acres; but in 1850 and
1857 they were reduced to less than
5000 acres, and it is scarcely possible
that this figure can be attained in the
present year. The Algerian author ties,
amazed at this unsuccess, and desirous
of discovering the secret of the failure,
submitted the question to agricultural
committees; but the contradictory re
plies of the latter threw no light upon
thej subject. The Debates attributes
their unsuccess to the following causes :
Colonists were enticed by extravagant
statements to cultivate more laud than
their means could afford ; when, there
fore, their hopes of realizing large prof
its were dispelled, they hastily aban
doned a cultivation which cost them
much money, trouble, and axiexty.
The dry soil of Algeria renders irriga
tion indispensable; consequently, tin*
tracts at present favorable to cotton
plantations are limited in extent.—
Finally, the absence of capital and
hands has exercised an unsatisfactory
mfluencejon the development of the pro
duction. Our contemporary does not.
however, despair of the steady progress
of cotton in Algeria; only it bids fare
well for a time to the ambitious dreams
which saw in the French colony a tri
uphant rival of the Southern States of
the American Union.
Mutually Complimented. —A young
ind pretty girl stepped into a store
where a spruce young man, who had
long been enamored but dared not
speak, stood behind the counter selling
dry goods. In order to remain as long as
possible, she cheapened everything, and
at last remarked : “ 1 believe you think
lam cheating you." “Oh no!" re
plied the youngster, “ to me you are al
ways fair." “Well," whispered the
lady, blushing, as she laid an emphasis
on the word, “ I would not stay so long
bargaining if you were not so dear."
Romantic, Very.
A celebrated cantatrice, now “star
ring" it in Paris, lately received from
a Muscovite prince, a handsome brooch
in diamonds, in acknowledgment of
admiration; but not wishing to accept
a gift, the motive of which might be
misconstrued, she returned it with warm
thanks. Next day she received a letter
frdtn the prince, approving highly of
her decision, but the writing in this
letter had a singularly glistening ap
pearance ; and it was afterwards found
that the magnate, not to he outdone in
generosity, had reduced the returned
diamonds to tine powder, with which
he had besprinkled the wet ink, and
had thus insured the acceptance of his
homage.
Casualties.
The storm of Friday night hist was
very terrific in the neighborhood of Mr.
Wm. Walker's at the lower Plank road
toll gate. He and Mr. Kenrick (his
neighbor) suffered seriously in their
jrops from the heavy hail and severe
wind. Corn was cut to pieces, fences
were prostrated, and at Mr. Walker's
me chimney and a part of the roof of
he dwelling house were blown off. We
lear of no injury to life or limb.
Two mules were drowned in Sleepy
■reek owing to the swollen condition of

SUMMER’S WELCOJIK,
IKvc-r welcome. Summer breeze,
Springing grass and verdant trees,
Silve. y strenms and bright leaved flowers, „
Changing clouds and cooling showers.
i Welcome songsters of the wood,
Who stag tho songs of Nature’s God ;
Prom every thought of sadness free,’
They warble, ever joyously.
Nature, in her gayest dress,
Appears the type of loveliness ;
Brightness greets on either hand—
Beauty smiles o’er all the land.
Oh ! could oar hearts receive the light
That come from flowers so fresh and bright,
And the blithe songsters of the air
Leave a soft murmuring there :
Then happiness would light each eye,
Ami tears ne’er dim their brilliancy ;
Gladness would reign in every heart,
And beauty to each face impart.
Narrow Escape from Premature llm-
Inl.
A singular circumstance took place
in Blandford, Va., on Tuesday. The
facts are given by an informant of the
South Side Democrat, as follows:
A negor woman, named Martha Saun
ders, had been ill some time past, and on
Monday morning her family and friends
assembled around her, and took, as they
thought, their final farewell. She ap
peared to expire about 10 o'clock the
same day, and the ceremonies of prepar
ing lierfor the grave were duly perform
ed, and every preparation was made. At
3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, some
minutes before she was to be carried to
her last resting place.much to the aston
ishment of those present, she reared
her head, and finally sat erect in her
coffin. A general stampede took place
among the darkies who came to attend
the obsequies, and so stupefied with
fright were those who remained that
some time elapsed before assistance was
rendered her. A physician was sent for
and stimulants administered, which
considerably revived liar, and at last
accounts she was improving, lint it is
■ not thought she can survive longer,
than a few days at farthest.

T was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink of
the grave. Luring my sickness I was attended
by three physicians in our place, but received
no help. I also tried the various remedies re
commended for such complaints, but they af
forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wislar's Balsam of Wild

feel that we are doing our invalid readers an in
' valuable service if we can induce them to get a
bottle of Dr. Sanford’s Invigorator, and take it,
1 for we know from personal experience that it is
, oue of th, ‘ greatest remedies so general debility
| and consequent inactive bodily powers ever be
fore used. Its action is so perfect and (omplete
as to give relief the first time taken, and if it
does to others as it lias to us. half a bottle will
be all that is needed. We know pf nothing we

Solved!—Dß. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has 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
the BUfl er, while bis digestive organization was
. 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
. acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-dolorous
or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter
■ rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
i paralysis,; borne down and dispirited bv -i
■ teniblelassitude which proceeds from a • t
j nervous energy, or experiencing any i ~.4 m
or disability arising from the unnatural condition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member with the source of sensation, mo
, tiou 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 iu
I declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
woman has over received from the hands of
■ medical men.
Morse’tf Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
’ mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite,
j While it renews the strength of the digestive
1 powers it creates a desire for tho solid material
which is to be subjected to their action. As an
appetiser it has no equal in the Pha -rnacopia.
If long life and tho vigor necessary to its on
-1 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
1 wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
. man of business, the victim of nervous depres
, sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
, will all find immediate and permanent relief from
. the use of this incomparable uinvaior. 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
perhaps who have so trifled with their coustitu
j Don that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
, Elixir deals with disease »s it exists, without re
ference to the causes, and will not only remove
the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

;SEWING MACHINES.
| > EASONS why the Grover & Baker
I V Maeliine is traivorailly preferred for family
sewing:
1. It is more simple and easier kept in order
• than any other Machine.
2d. It makes a seam which will not rip or
ravel, though every third stitch is cut.
•*d. It sews from two ordinary spools, and thus
t all trou le of winding thread is avoided, while
the same machine can be adapted at pleasure,
. by a mere change of spool, to all varieties of work!
4th The same maeliine runs silk, linen thread,
and common spool cotton with equal facility.
sih. The seaui is as elastic as the most clastic
fabric, so th -t it is free from all liability tobroak
, in washing, ironing, or otherwise
t 6lh. The -titch made by this machine is
beautiful than any other made, either bv hand
or maeliine

I>r. Ayer : You** Pills arc the pc tection of
medicine. They have done my wife more g *od
than I can tell you. She had been sick and pin
ing away for months. Went oil' to be doctored
at great expense, but got nob. tier. Slic then
commenced taking your pills, which soon cured
her, by expelling large quantiti s of worms
(dead) from her body. They afterwards cured
her and our two chi.dren of bloody dysentery.
One of our neighbors had it bad, and uiy wife
cured him with two dosci of your pills, while
others around us paid from five t • iwentv dolt
| i'irs doctors’ bills, and lost much time, withou
! eing cured cat rely even then. Such a medi,
cine as yours, which is actually good aud houest
will be prized here.

that is great iu medicine. They have cured my
little daughter of ulcerous sores upon her hands
end feet that had proved incurable for years.
Her mother has been long g; i< voualy afflicted
with blotches and pimples on her skin and in her

Pulaski House, Savannah, Ga., )
January j
Honored Sir--I should be ungrateful for the
relief your skill has brought me if I did uot re
port my case to you. A cold settled in my
limbs and brought on excruciating neuralgic
pains, which ended iu chronic rheumatism.
Notwithstanding I had the best of physicians,
the disease grew worse and worse, until, by the
advice ol'your excellent agent in Baltimore, Dr.
Mackenzie, I tried your pills. Their effects were
slow, but sure. By persevering iu the use of
them I am now entirely well.

that had afflicted me lor years.
VINCENT SLIDEIJ.
For Dropsy, Plethora, or kindred Complaints,
requiring an active purge, they are an excellent
remedy.
For Costiveness or Constipation, and as a Din
ner Pill, they arc agreeable aud effectual.
Fits, Suppr ssiou, Paralysis. Inflarnmal on,
and even Deafness, aud Partial Blindness, have
becN cured by the alterative action of these
Pills.
Most of the pills in market contain Mercury,
which, although a valuable remedy in skilful
haDds, is dangerous in a public pill, from tho
dreadful consequen es that frequently follow its
incautious use These contain no mercury or
mineral substance whatever.

We need not speak to the public of its virtues.
Throughout every town, aud almost every ham
let of the American States, its wonderful cures
of pulmonary complaints have made it already
known. Nay, few are the families iu an\ civd
ized country on this coutmcut without some
personal experience of its effects ; and fewer yet
the communities any where which have not
among them some living t ophy ot its victory
over the subtle und dangeious diseases ot tbe
throat and lungs. While it is the most power
ful antidote yet known to man for the :ormnia
ble and dangerous diseases of the pulmonary
organs, it is also the pleusantest and safest rim
eoy that can be employee .or iuluuts auu young
persons. Parents should have it in store against
the iusidious i nemy that steals upon them un
prepured. We have abundant grounds o be
lieve the Cherry Pectoral saves more lives by
tbe consumptions itprevoutsthan those itcures.
Keep it by you, and cure your colds win e they
