This will enable us to present the very latest intelligence from the seat of Government, and to give not only an account of the regular proceedings, hut an impartial review of the outside current of popular feeling, and metropolitan gossip. We confi dently expect a large accession to our subscription list, to repay us for the ad ditional expense of keeping an editor at the capitol. In addition to the proceedings of the Legislature the Dispatch will contain the latest intelligence from all quarters of the globe. Terms, daily, for the ses sion. SI. — South Carolina Sou of Temperance. We have received the first number of a new paper of the above title, publish ed at Beunettsville, S. C. by Moore & Powell—our friend H.

The Etowah Railroad was completed last week, and the trains are running regularly in connection with the passen ger trains of the Western & Atlantic railroad. The event was signalized by the firing of a salute, from ordinance made and cast at Etowah.Foundry. Few men, says tile Journal $f Messenger, are so enterprising as Maj. Cooper, and hence few are so fortunate as to drive an iron horse of their own and upon their own road. More than all, few are so valorous as to make, before they fire, their own guns.

[Special Correspondence of the Dispatch ] Memphis, Oct. 23d, 1358. Dear A :—Our city was startled on yesterday by telegraphic intelligence of the burning of the Steamboat Ben Franklin, a few miles above Vicksburg. Vhe steamer left her wharf in this city on Monday evening, with about 2,000 bales of Cotton, and a large number of passengers. The cotton with the entire bo#, and other freight, was entirely consumed. Fortunately, all the passen gers were saved. The Franklin was in sured for 835,000 in Louisville offices. The cotton was insured in Sew Orleans and Boston. The races on the Memphis Course arc over—and the papers are warm in their congratulations that everything passed off peaceably and in order. The mana gers deserve great credit for their inde fatigable efforts to restore the Turf to its former standard of respectability in our midst, and they are well rewarded in the complete success of their experi ment. Your correspondent delights in no amusement more than in a well-order ed race. There is a beauty in well-train ed horse-flesh approaching the sublime —and nothing (except the training and development of our babies) is more worthy the attention of intellectu al beings than to cultivate the noble powers of that sagacious and faithful animal. Walking along Court Square this morning I met a despondent looking individual who seemed like a stranger in trouble, and 1 ventured to address him. He was hunting for his wife, who had been “ lost or mislaid” somewhere in our growing Babel. It seems that they caine down on one of our river boats together, and while he was get ting off their baggage, the plank was drawn in, and the steamer made off, leaving his wife in a strange city minus her dry goods. He returned on the first boat, and was in a “wild hunt” af ter his missing spouse when I met him. A negro girl recently returned to this city from Ohio, whither she had gone last year, in pursuit of the blessings of freedom. She found life among the abolitionists so much worse than her comfortable home as a slave, that she begged her mistress—Mrs. J. P. Pryor— to take her back, and sho “ nebber run away agin, for sartin.” Our river is now almost at low water mark, and is still falling. Cotton is de pressed on account of the difficulty in getting the article shipped. Our bluff is lined with cotton waiting shipment, and 11 1-8 to 11 3-8 cents, are the rul ling figures for Good Middling to Mid -dlißj Fair grades. Yours, MEMPHIS. IS" Take the Weekly Dispatch.

The Committed appointed at a pre liminary meeting yesterday morning, ! to prepare and report business for the ; consideration of this meeting, askleave j to report: 1. That it is the sense of this meet ing that it is the duty of the State to | provide for the Elementary Education i of all the children in the State. 2. That the Poor School system now in operation in this State, is wholly in adequate to meet the wants of the peo ple, and ought to be abandoned. 3 That a system of Public Education ought to be initiated by the approach ing Legislature, having for its object, the securing to all tbe people of the j State, an opportunity of giving to their ji children a Free Elementary English Ed-;; ucation. 4. That for the purpose of judicious- ■ 1 ly organising such a system as the!’ wants of t'i« State require, it is necessa- j ry to collect, arrange and digest, all the j. statistics within our reach, connected j directly or remotely with the subject, J. #li 1 lay the same before the Legislature of tbe State. 5. That as the most feasible means of. _ accomplishing this object, we recom-: mend that a Department of Public Ed- I ucation be organised by the next Legis-1 lature, with a responsible head and ad equate compensation ; whose duty it ■ shall be to collect the necessary infor-: mation, and prepare an annua! Report | to the Governor, to be laid by him be-1 fore tbe Legislature, embracing the i most practicable plan for carrying iuto ; effect the great object contemplated by j . this meeting. 6. That the most ample provision pos- j ‘ sible be made to sustain such system ; i ‘ and to this end we recommend that the j ■ Western x Atlantic Railroad, or the an- 1 - nual proceeds thereof, not already , pledged, be permanently set apart for | , educational purposes, and that the lar-j ger proportion thereof, together with) jail the present fund set apart as a Poor School fund, be pledged to this object, j 7. That the several counties in this . State, and all incorporated cities, towns and villages, be authorised by law to organize and carry into practical opera tion such a system of Public Education as, in their judgement, shall be best adapted to tlieir respective localities. 8. That the several counties, towns and cities in this State, be requested at as early a day as practicable, to hold public meetings, and express their itp proval or disapproval of these recom mendations and make known the result of their deliberations to the next Legis lature: 9. That a committee of five be ap pointed by the Chairman of this meet ing, to prepare and present a Memori al to the Legislature at its approaching Session, setting forth the claims of a general system of Puplic Schools, as affording the only hope of ever secur ing the great object in view, the edu cation or all the children or the 1 State. 10. That all the newspapers in this , State,he requested to notice, or publish, these proceedings. Thos. R. R. Cobb of Clarke, A. Cohen of Chatham, D. E. Butler of Morgan, j A. H. Chappell of Bibb and G.

One is Sirs. Lambert, alias Flora Temple, of P>oston, and the other a Mrs. Martha Buckley, alia* Prio ress, of Lynn, Mass. Both have had some experience in this kind of sport. The present match is to test their endu rance, the terms of agreement being “to walk a plank thirty feet long, three feet wide, and raised three feet above the floor. The one that sits down, goes to sleep, or falls off first, to lose the stake—Bloo. Both have undergone a regular sys tem of training during the last six weeks to bring them “into condition, something akin to the preparations through which pass the prize fighter.— They have had their walks, their run ' ning, their baths, “beef steaks rare 1 done,” and their sherry moderately.— I They commenced at noon yesterday, j and no accident occurring, aye likely to continue till some time on Saturday.— ! During that time ten minutes, three times per day, is allowed them for re freshment ; but that has also to be ta ken in a standing posture and with eyes open.” What next Gotham ? Mr. George W.

The matter was referred to a committee. One of the public squares in Sebasto pol has been named “Amcricanski Place,” inhonorof tbe American resi dents there. It is currently reported that the British Government w ill shortly issue a pardon to Thomas F.

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 j fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude I nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, whilehis digestive organization was i paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, unuer 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-doloreux or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter rors. wakened by periodical fits, threatened with paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from tho 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 useof thi3 Cordial, which at once culms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it are unanimous m declaring the Elixir to be tbe greatest boon that woman has ever received from the hands of 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 sohd material which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the Vharmacopio. If long life and the vigor necessary to its en joyment arc desirable, this medicine is indeed of precious wm-tb Its beneficial effects are net confined to either sex or to any age. The foeble 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 ol a single organ will all find immediate and permanent relief from tbe use of this incomparable ren n nor. 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 thcreach of medicine. Lot not even those despair. The Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re ference to tbe causes, and will not ouly remove the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofseif-de siruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous ness. inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay yf the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of : the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from j whatever cause arising, it is, if there is any reli i ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute- I ly infallible.
