Bread by-Machinery. I
} “ Pink,” the New York correspond- i
. ent of the Charleston Courier, in his let- 1
ter of the 6tli inst., writes that ‘ one of '
the great manufaoturers of bread— i
Hecker—is making it by patent ma
chinery, and selling it by weight at two
and a half cents per pound. Two hun
dred and fifty barrels of flour are used
daily in his manufactory, turning out
62,600 pounds of bread. Hecker con
templates shortly exhibiting his build- j
ings, patent machinery, and all the pro- 1
cesses in the manufacture of his unri-
I
vailed bread, to the inspection and j
scrutiny of the public. It will, no doubt
he one of the curiosities of the town for
a time. It will take down the big ten
cylinder printing presses, about which <
the rival newspapers are blowing so |
hard, and which they wish the public ,
to come and see.”
No Duel.
. In a discussion the other day in the '
- i
United States House of Representatives,
Mr. Hughes, of Indiana, and Mr. Har
ris, of Illinois, got into a dispute, dur
ing which the lie passed and was re
turned. A Washington dispatch, dated
Monday, says that Mr. Hughes sent a
challenge to Mr. Harris, who promptly
accepted it, but it was afterwards sus
pended or temporarily withdrawn, for
explanations,and late on Monday night
arrangements were made by which the
offensive language used in debate was
withdrawn by each in the order it was
uttered, and thus the difficulties were
amicablv adjusted.

Another Expedition for Klcarngua
We observe, says the Richmond South,
a report in the Philadelphia Argus to
the effect, that General Walker is
about to sail for N icaragua with three
thousand associates. Os coursc|, thisis
an exaggerated statement. It is not at
all improbable, however, that General
Wai.kf.r will soon return to Nicaragua,
and with a sufficient amount of force to
insure the occupation of the country.—
The internal disturbances of the Isth
mian provinces invite his presence,
while the movements of M. Belly,(make
out a sufficient case for the passive ac
quiescence of our Government, We can
not imagine a more obvious and vlfec
tual expedient for the defeat of foreign
intrigues in Central America, than to
assist Walker in the conquest of the
country. All things considered, we
may hazard the assertion, that the Uni
ted States Government will not again
intercept a “ fillihuster ” expedition to
Nicaragua.

A large elk passed through Tunhan

for Philadelphia, where it had been sold i
for the sum of SI,OOO. The owner re- 1
presented its weight at six hundred j
pounds, (nearly as heavy as a small

minutes and a half. It was broke to j

Important Decision.
The Supreme Court, at General Term,
has delivered an opinion of considerable
importance, in the case of Greer against!
Sankston and others. The action arose
on the title to property sold on judge
ment, formerly owned by Henry Sanks
ton, dee d. Sankston was married, in
1829, to Ann McConnell, in Ireland,
where they both resided, and were citi
zens of that country. The husband i
came to this country in 1831, and had re |
sided since that time, until his death j
here. He was naturalized in 183 C, and i
he purchased the property in question,
in 1843. His widow has continued to
reside in Ireland until this time. Sanks
ton died in 1854. A claim was set up
that the widow of deceased is entitled
to dower in the premises sold, and that
therefore, the title is defective. The!
Court held that the law of 1854, which
endowed alien women who married cit- j
izens of the United States, did not'
make provision for the endowment of
widows of aliens naturalized after their i
marriage, and that as Sankston was not
a citizen at the time of his marriage,
his widow, being an alien, could not in
herit dower from him.— N. Y. Sun.

The Revival.
This great work still progresses, ap
parently without abatement of interest j
or success. On Sunday last, another!
considerable, accession of members was j
made to several of the churches—the |
greatest accession on this occasion being;
at the Presbyterian Church, where sev-l
enty new members, of both sexes and
almost all ages, were received.' Thisj
by the way, was the first admission at \
that church of converts by the revival.
A portion of these new members were
baptized, and the occasion altogether
presented one ot the most impressive 1
ceremonies ever witnessed in that
church. There were also additional ac- \
cessions to the Baptist Church on Sat- |
unlay, and eleven baptisms on Sunday:
the Methodist Church al.-o received new
converts; and from the dense throngs
that crowded all the houses of worship, .
it was thought there were a greater.
number of people at church on that day
than on any Sunday before since the
settlement of Columbus.— Columbus En

Interesting Mississippi Statistics.
We are indebted to Madison McAfee,
Esq., Auditor of Public Accounts, for
the following interesting statistics,
showing the increased value of taxable ‘
lands in this State from the year 1864 c
to 1857, and the increase in the number c
of taxable slaves in 1857 over 1856. <
These statistics, demonstrating the en
hanced resources of Mississippi and her
steady advancement upon the highroad
of wealth and prosperity, will be read
with pleasure by all who feel an inter- i
est in her welfare : (
The assessed value of
taxable lands in 1857, $141,749,429 82 '
The assessed value of
taxable lands in 1854, 91,613,154 54 !
]
Increase of valuation, $50,126,275 30 l
The number of taxable slaves
assessed in 1857. 368,182 1
The number of taxable slaves
assessed in 1856, 349,731
Increase in ’57 over ’56, 18,450
If the average valne of slaves he esti
mated at S6OO, it would show the slave
property of the State to be worth $220,-
902,200 —a startling array of figures to
the humanitarians of Elibu Burritt
school, whose grand idea is the libera
tion of the slaves by purchasing them
from their masters. Their organization, j
however, is succeeding bravely with:
their great work. It has been in exis !
tence but a twelve month, and by the
proceedings of their annual May Con-j
vention in New York, welearn that thel
large sum of SIOO had been subscribed.
If the sehscriptioDS continue at this
rate, and the value of slave property
continues to increase annually in Mis
sissippi and the other Southern States,
according to the above, Elihu, if he is
a good arithmetician, can tell us how
long it will take to raise the means to
consummate the scheme, in the event
the Southern people should consent to
part with their property. —Jackson Mis
sissippian.
Death Bed Confession.—A note from
! Mr. Wm. Dee, of Lower Peach Tree,
Wilcox county, Ala., states that Mr. B.
Henry Pitman, aged about 43 years,
j died at that place on the 2nd of May ;
that he went there in 1853, married a
! young lady there and treated her very
kindly, but on his death-bed said that
he had left a wife living in Baldwin

Our Miners.
We are pleased to see so much ener
|gy manifested among our miners in
1 search of minerals. They seem to know
; and feel that Lumpkin county is rich
with gold and precious stones, and all
■ that is wanting to bring it forth is en
ergy and perseverance. The main
course pursued now, and we fully con
cur in the movement, is the testing of
our numerous hills, for it is from this
source that our rich deposits have been
fed. If there is no relaxation on the
part of our enterprising miners we feel
confident that in a short time we shall
j have the pleasing task of announcing
j discoveries in Lumpkin not to be cxeel
i led in California.—- Dahttme.ga Mountain

T lie Great P r oblem ‘
Solved I—DR. 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 t
course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastrir <
tluid re acquiros its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to ;
the sufferer, while his digestive organization war
paralyzed and unstrung, becomos, under the ,
wholesome revolution created in the system, the *
basts of activity, strougth 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
| paralysis, [ borne down and dispirited by that
j terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack ot
J nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from the unnatural condition
j of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
| ory member with the source of sensation, mo
! tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
j 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
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon tbai
woman has ever received from the hards 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 digostive
powers it creatosa desire for the solid materia’’
which is to he 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 de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
willail 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 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. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
ierence to the causes, and will not only remove !
the disorder Itself, but rebuild the broken con- 1
stitution

SEWING MACHINES.
K EASONS why the Grover & Haker
Machine is universally preferred for family i
sewing: ,
1. It is more simple and easier kept in order i
than any other Machine.
2d. It" makes a seam which will not rip or (
ravel, though every third stitch is cut. ]
3d. It sew’s from two ordinary spools, aud thus (
all trouble of winding thread is avoided, while |
the same machine can be adapted at pleasure, i
by a mere change of spool, to all varieties of work. (
4th. The same machine runs silk, linen thread, ,
and common spool cotton with equal facility.
sth. The seam is as elastic as the most elastic
fabric, so that it is free from all liability to break
in washing, ironing, or otherwise.
6th. The stitch made by this machine is more
beautiful than any other made, either by hand
or machine
Merchants can secure the sales of these Ma

Sir : I have used your Pills iu my general and
hospital practice ever since you made them, and
cannot hesitate to say they are the best cathar
tic we employ. Their regulating action on the
liver is quick and decided, consequently they are !
an admirable remedy for d range en'ts ut tli t

bilious disease so obstinate that it did not readily
yield to them. Fraternally, yours,

Dr. Ayer : You** Pills are the perfection o' j
medicine. They have done my wife more g .od
than I can tell you. She had been sick and pin-1
ing away for months. Went off to be doctored !
at great expense, but got no better. She then
commenced taking your pills, which soon cured l
her, l>y expelling large quantiti- s of worms
(dead) from her body. They afterwards cured
her and our two children of bloody dyseuterv.
One of our neighbors had it bad. and my wife
cured him with two dosoe of your pills,’while
others around us paid from five to twenty dolt
lars doctors’ bills, and lest much time, withou
being cured entirely even then. Such a modi,
