The reputation lie lias gained for the manufacture of this article is well earned, and if industry, and care in its preparations will main tain its present reputation, Dennis’ Georgia Sarsaparilla will continue to be sought after by invalids. _ Stabbing. An affray occurred at Drain's Barroom near G. R. E. Depot on Wednesday nightiast, in which a Mr. Edward Gir vin, dangerously stabbed a Mr. Clink, in three places, with his sword cane. Mr. Cline is not expected to survive. Gir- Vin has tied to parts unknown. The origon of the difficulty is unknown, but supposed to have been the result of an old grudge entertained by Girvinagainst Cline. [communicated.] Mb. Editor :—I feel assurred that it will be gratifying to the numerous piscatory readers of the 1 Dispatch,” to learn that Sashy Walker, Esq., has so far recovered from the accident which befel him, while in transitu from the “Big Cyprus," to the Railroad—and which I adverted to not long since - as to be informed by his family physician that his aid was no longer necessary. Sandy, in connection with several connoisuers in Barnwell and Effingham, is projecting a grand carousal at Ele nezer, sometime in September, of which due proclamation will bo made. It is intended, if possible, to eclipse the “come off," at the Big Cyprus. Invitations, generally, will be exten-j ded to tlie desciples of time honored “liack,” —to say nothing of outsiders, and the fair sex. “ Let those boast of their Pic-Xics in bower and ha!!,” “ Who ne’er went a tishing For trout in the tall” And rooked them on the ground.

The Jailor re ceived no material damage from the un- 1 gallant salute. Clinton jail is one of the strongest in 1 the State, the wails, floor and ceiling having been erected out of heavy, solid smooth granite ashlers, at a cost of near ten thousand dollars. — Albany Patriot, 2 d inst. Pine* Bljgbtir It is to bo regretted for tho appear ance of the suburbs of our City, that the beautiful pine groves near Winn's Hill, the ABylumand Cemetery, are de caying and dying rapidly from a species of worm, scarcely visible to the eye. It was thought that the washing of Band down Winn’s Hill destroyed those trees in close proximity to it. This, however, cannot be the cause of their premature decay, as it is confined to no particular locality. It must he a worm which is destroying them -Columbus Tima, 2d. The Health of Athens.—We are in formed by Capt. Wm. H. Dorsey, that the number of deaths in Atlreuß in July was four, against sixteen last year, and unt in August (consumption) against fourteen last year.— Athms Banner, 2d. Only one Way to Heat the Atlantic Cable. A gentleman who had lead in the morning papers the first news dispatch from London over the Atlantic Cable, announcing the peace with China, laid down the paper, while every feature of his face was expressive of astonishment t for which he could not find utterance. 1 After a minute's contemplative silence he said : “ Well, the thing is done—the great est achievement of man since the world began is accomplished. Hero we have a convincing proof of it in the trans i mission of important intelligence from : Europe in less than twolvo hours. Won derful! wonderful!" “It is indeed wonderful," remarked his friend. “ I can scarcely realize the stupendous fact." , “Stupendous, indeed!” replied the first speaker. There is only one thing yet for man to accomplish to beat the i Atlantic telegraph. Only one thing.” I “Pray what is that?" ’ “To bore through the globe and open telegraphic communication with j the Celestials on the other side direct." i J “ Very true, but that’s impossible.” | “And if a few years ago 1 had pro posed to extend a telegraphic wire un der the bed of the ocean, would you ■ I not have replied that that was impossi ble? ] That's a fact—so I would.” “Ah my friend, there is no such ■ word as impossible now.

The River Low- Three Steamers are at the wharf, wait ing for a revival of business and a rise in the river to proceed to Apalachicola.— The river is exceedingly low and has the j appearance of a small stream, as it me anders through the rocks al the falls, above the lower bridge. Fishermen, however, still cling to its banks and realize a pittance as the result #f their labors. —Columbus Sun, 2d inst. A Rich Estate —The estate of John Lawrence, of Watertown, England,is of immense value, consisting of millions of dollars, ill the keeping of the English government. Notice has been given to the heirs to come forward and prove their identity, and we learn that the claimants, as heirs at law, are John R. Highton, Thomas Baruo Highton, Me hitable Edwards and Mary Cone, all of this State. We are also informed that our indomitable and energetic citi zen, Levi S. Russell, Esq., has alreay gnneon, with evidence proving the heir- i ship of tlie above parties, to this vast estate. Tlie evidence was taken before tlie Ordinary of Bulloch county, in con formity to the Amendatory Statue of England, an original record connected with the case was made in the year 1804. We learn that the proofs in possession of Mr. Russell, together with the record evidence, are positive in favor of the heirship of these parties. We most heartily wish Mr. Russell success in his undertaking.— Sav. News. A correspondence lets taken place be tween the Sheriff of Charleston District, John E. Carew, Esq., and the United j States Marshal, Dr. D. H. Hamilton, in relation to tho captured Africans, re quiring their surrender under tiie act of South Carolina, 1835, which prohib- J its the entrance within iter limits ot free persons of color. The sheriff hav ing taken the advice of counsel, which being conflicting, was induced from the suggestions of official duty and at the request of several respectable citizens, to demand the surrender of the negroes by the Marshal. The latter on the ad vice of James Conner, Esq., U. S. Dis trict Attorney, declined compliance.— Tho negroes being subsequently trans ferred from Castle Pinckney of Fort Sumter and further removed from all risk of communication, to avoid a con flict with the United States authorities, the Sheriff has not proceeded any furth er in tlie business. The negroes will of course remain at Fort Sumter, until the pleasure of the government is made known. —Charleston News, 2dinst. — — Frbioiit to New York.—ln conse quence of the rigid quarantine at New Yoi k, the Mercury says, “ the Charles ton and New York steamships have been compelled to raise the price for the carriage of freight ’’ We are pleased to announce that Dr. Wm.

Wise, a nephew of the Gov ernor of Virginia, and a party of San Francisco capitalists, are represented being about to lay off a new town on the “Fitzhugh claim,” a tract of 100 acres of land lying between Whatcom j and Sehome, near the Fraser river gold mines. The bridge over Meherrin river, in Brunswick county, Va., tumbled down Sunday night. Heavily loaded vohi- ' cles had crossed it during the day. It cost seven thousand dollars. Tlie con tractor stated that it would endure un- 1 til 1925.

P0|,,1,a,, ° ,10f Pnrls * We extract from La Prcsse the follow- J in £ interesting statistics relating to this subject, on the examination of which, j says our cotemporary, all questions of administration and of public work must be bassed : [ 219.000 occupy dwellings of which ' annual rent is not higher than six pounds; 114,000 families occupy dwel i ' ling of rent between six and sixteen I 1 pounds; 12,000 a rent of sixteen to! ! twenty pounds. Tho remainder of tho j population, say 40,000 families, pay 1 rent higher than £2O per annum ; and! ■ there are only 5,302 families paying! more than $96.” » o a “Thenum-1 her of inhabitants who are indigent or. temporarily necessitous cannot be much under 400.000 individuals.” to an inquiry instituted by the Chamber of Commerce in 1847, there were in Paris 342,530 ouvriers of both sexes. In a period of thirty five yearsfrom 181 /, tho population of Paris had in creased by 339,296 souls, or 47 per cent 1 According to the census of 1831, the population is classed as follows : Me chanics, 43 percent, including both sox es ; in receipt of salaries, 22 percent.; liberal professions, 16 per cent. ; mili ! tary 10 per cent.; commercial,9 per cent. The 1,000,000 inhabitants who reside in Paris consume the tenth part of the en tire production of France. A Parisian eats annually as much meat as six in habitants of some tis the provinces. Paris draws its immense-stock of or dinary provisions from sixty of our de partments and three foreign countries. It devours nearly all the fish that is caught on our coasts, and sends for its game as tar as Germany. The revenues of the Parisian population, valued at £80,000,000, is drawn principally from; the three following sources; The in- ] dustry and commerce of Paris produces! annually about £40,000,000; tho civil) list and State functionaries of all kinds! spend annually in Paris about £20,000,-' 000 ; the remaining £20,000,000 is re eeivetl from the floating population of strangers, numbering about 60,000. From these general indications there results this consequence, that Paris cen tralization is not only political, intellec tual, atistic, &c., but economic in a ve ry high degree. A centre of popula tion which consumes of itself the tenth part of the general productions of the country, and a third of its budget is a fact so considerable that it destroys! all equilibrium. Another fact of the' highest importance, which we gain from! these figures is that out of 345,000 fami-; lies, 219,000 occupy dwellings of which the rent is not higher thin £6 per an num. La Press,■ proceeds to state that no question is so much disputed as whether; tins immense attraction and absorption! of the metropolis and consequent dc-! population of rural districts, is a benefit l or an evil ? Our contemporary seems to 1 be of opinion that, if it bean evil at all, it is one irremediable and irresistible in the present transitory state of the economic organization of the country ; that it arises from the sudden extension of railways having increased the means i of transport beyond the level of produc tion, and that when knowledge and, capital shall have down back into the| provinces by the same facilities of com munication, the ratio production will! increase and the equilibrum he restor ed. Our contemporary concludes with the following bright vision of a future pros perity tor his country: “When the new regime ( economic) shall be established, | the peasant will give place to the agri-j cultural (yuvrter lamiliarizcd with mod ern lights. Rich fields will extend J themselves where we now see misery and disorder reigning for want of capital, without which the land remains unprO-, ductive. Let us look fearlessly towards the future, without being stayed by ob stacles merely transitory. This future is brilliant—it is fertile as the science which has created it, and by which it will never be abandoned — 1 Tile Duel hi t ween Me.,is. Calhoun and Brevuort. We venture to publish tlie following extract from a letter recently received, dated Paris August sth, and written to a friend in this city. The writer is, of course, well known in Columbia, and the names mentioned in the letter are too famiiiary known over the State, so cially and otherwise, for ua to be charg ed with indelicacy in giving them in full. “ Ihe statements in tlie American papers in relation to the duel between Ransom Calhoun and young Brevoort, were so vague and unsatisfactory, that I have been induced, since my arrival in Paris, to make some particular inqui ries concerning the whole affair. To my entire satisfaction, I have found that the conduct of our young countryman throughout was up to every requisite of his friends and State—brave, honorable and judicious. Mr. Alan Izard, Mr, Ro bert Pringle and Judge Mason, speak in! the highest terms of Calhoun’s conduct and bearing. 1 have also spoken with Col. Pickens, Gov. Aiken and others, who seem greatly graified.that in a case of extreme delicacy and difficulty, Mr. Calhoun has borne himself with the manliness becoming his name and .State, ! and the discretion demanded by his posi tion. The immediate case was this: for harsh words spoken, Brevoort struck! Calhoun. Calhoun challenged. Bre- j voort fired after time. Calhoun's second,! of course, instantly and peremptorily! declined further proceedings. Subse-, quently, however, the seconds chose to submit the matter to a board of honor.! This board decreed that ‘ Mr. Brevoort j fired after the expiration of the time agreed] ' on, and therefore, the duel was properly stop- ) ped.’ “ The force and effect of such a de cree is fully understood in our latitude.! The second who would permit another ! meeting, under these circumstances,' would, with us, be deemed ‘particeps cri , minis’ to an assassination,&c." — Columbia j f Carolinian.
