Several of our lady readers have asked us why we have stopped publish ing stories in the Dispatch. In reply to J story-reading friends we must say until the Legislature adjourns w> lot spare space for tales, our corres pondence occupying all the room we can spare for a long article. It is our aim to make the paper varied in its contents with something to suit the tastes of all, and as soon as the protracted annual farce is over at Milledgcville, we lias e in store some capital stories for the winter campaign. Aa Far South ns Richmond. The telegraph informed us, a few days ago, that the President’s Message had been sent to the Press “as far South asFdchmond.” And why should it be sent to Richmond, and not to other Southern cities? Augusta has advan tages over any other city South for the rapid and wide dissemination of news. The Evening Dispatch furnishes the news to Florida twenty four hours in advance of the papers from any other city—and Augusta papers have double the country circulation of the papers of any other city in this part of the South, and we do not see any fairness in this discrimnation against them.— ■With this arrangement the Richmond papers will he able to circulate the mes sage at our own door almost as quick as we can do it. We protest against such partiality. More Screws Looses A subscriber writes from Marietta, Ga., that he has not had our paper for seven days, and that he had written a letter a few days before, on other busi ness, at the same time alluding to the irregularity with which our paper reach es there. His first letter has not yet come to hand, and we assure him that our State Road packages are deposited in the Post Office hero every day before dark, and the fault of their miscarriage is not ours. Os course we are more annoyed by it than our subscribers can possibly be, for we are losing money by the operation. |»J” One of our subscribers, writing from Washington county, Ohio, says that snow commenced falling on the morning of the 27th, and in the after noon it was twelve inches deep on the level. ♦ Wa rren ton (X.

[communicated.] Independent ’Older Sons of Malta. This ancient and honorable Older, which derives its origin from the Knights of Malta of the fifteenth cen * tnry, seems to have become very popu lar throughout the lcDgth and breadth , of our land, and in all our large cities i numbers its Brothers by the thousand. We are pleased to learn that a Lodge is goon to he opened in our city, that , those who desire can become members < of this fraternity, which has its friends i in every known corner of the earth. — In England the Lodges are numerous,' < and it is said His Royal Highness Prince ; Albert, has for many years performed the arduous, yet highly honorable du- < ties of aG. R. J. A., with what success, I the archives of the Grand Lodge, as well 1 as the History of his country bear wit ness. The Emperor Napoleon has re- | cently received the equally honorable < degree of G. S. J. A. We are surprised that some Brothers have seen fit to ques- 1 tion his qualifications for this high of- ( ce. His residence in this country, his ] sufferings, and the noble fortitude which he displayed in the darkest mo ments of his life, in our opinion emi- ' nently qualify him for a faithful dis- 1 charge of the duties connected with it. In our own country we find the name of Vice President Breckenrige recorded on cur Rolls, as having received the high and honorable degree of P. G. C , and that of Douglas the “Little Giant” of Illinois as P. V. G. C. It is only after long years of service in the cause of the Order, that these degrees are con ferred. A meeting of Delegates from the different Lodges in the world has "been discussed, and for our part we are highly in favor of such a meeting. An interchange of sentiments between the different Lodges of the world would re sult in much benefit to the Order. We Jsope some action will be taken in the .matter at the next meeting of the! , G.W ! Lodge of the United States. 1 Q- I _ Mtllertgevllle I'orreapomlcnce. Monday Morning, Dec. t.th. Senate- Ineffectual efforts were made to reconsider some of the work of yes terday. , , . . , ihe rules were suspended to take up the General Appropriation Bill. The bill read the first time. The consideration of the hill to re move the Penitentiary to some other site, was resumed. Mr. Briscoe had the right to the floor. He continued his remarks where lie had left off on Saturday last. He ably sus tained his former reputation as an able debater. He was followed by Paine and Billups. T here is no doubt in the minds of the friends of Milledgeviile, that the effort is but an attempt, on the pait of Allan ta, to obtain the Capitol. Milledgeviile owes as much to the Hon. W. W Paine, of Telfair aud the Hon. Mr. Billups, ol Morgan, as to any other Senators in her defence. Mr. P. introduced this idea, and it had a great influence in killing the bill. Mr. Reynolds, of Newton, also gave the hill a severe handling. There is not a Senator who watches the Treasu ry with more vigilance than Mr. li.— The ayes were 41, and the nays 68, and the bill was lost. The Senate then resumed tire consi deration of a hill to compel the banks to make their returns. On the motion to adopt the substitute offered by the Committee ou Banks, Mr. Gibson made a tine argument. Mr. Cooper, of Scriven, then follow ed. He vhought the principal dissatis faction arose from the banks having re fused to lend money to Tom, Dick and Harry. Mr. Fambr'o offered an amend , ment. The Senate then adjourned until 3 ' o’clock, P. M., without taking any action. In the afternoon, Mr. Atkinson, of Camden, obtained the floor. He said that he only desired to answer a re mark made by the Senator from Scriven. That gentleman said that discontent now existed only because the banks had refused to lend money to Tom Dick and Harry-. He was elected by- Tom, Dick and Harry. The complaint did not arise as the Senator from Scriven would have the Senate understand. The com plaint arose from two facts, one that these banks continued, contrary to law, to lend Tom, Dick and Harry money at fifteen, twenty or thirty per cent., and the other was that when these men got the notes of these banks into their] pockets, they know not whether they are worth the paper that they are writ ten on. They complain of this, and lie, as the Representative of Tom, Dick and Harry, demanded that these com plaints should he heard. Mr. Stiles, of Chatham, said that he arose with as much difidence as he ever did, to address any Assembly of ; the character in his whole experience. , He had come here, direct from his , summer home, iu the mountains, and he had not been to tire county of Chath am since his election. The opinions e that he would now give, were given without consultation with his constitu ents. He first reviewed the history of the last panic and of others years before, i, He attributed the whole of them to s over trading. He then asked the Sen ■_ ate if, by any law, they could prevent over-trading ? Was it the fault of the Banks of Georgia? Not at all. The e Banks of Georgia never suspended until e the Banks iu New York, all the North n eru Banks, besides the Banks of our sister States, South Carolina, Tennessee and Alabama, had all suspended before tlie Banks of Georgia suspended. And a does the Legislature desire the Banks r of Georgia to pay specie when no bank around them pays specie? Would it not he a suicidal policy iu the State of 3 Georgia to compel her banks to empty i their vaults into the vaults of the t Banks of New York ? He thought it would, and he also thought that the ", Legislature of 1857 had done right in ll their action on this subject. a He then asked the Senate if they r were prepared to abolish the banks ! He thought not. The lateness of the hour at which t this was delivered, precludes the possi -3 bility of our making a fuller report.— j The Honorable Senator from Chatham j is no unworthy successor of the Hon. j ’ John E. Ward. Mr. Whitaker, of Fulton, asked Sen-1 ators whether they would stultify them-j selves by passing a law explanatory of the Bank Bill passed last session. He : hoped not. On the adoption of the substitute, ] the ayes and nays were called. The ayes are 18, the nays are 9Q, so the sub- j stitute was lost. The next substitute was that offered i by Mr. Stubbs, of Bibb. Mr. Stubbs obtained the floor and I consumed an argument on the subject, j when the hour for adjournment having | arrived, the Chair declared the Senate to stand adjourned until 7 o'clock, P. i M. During the afternoon, several times the lobby made too much noise, and! the Chair (the Hon. T. L. Guerry) was compelled to order the Messenger to pre- j serve order. House. —The House met at 9 1-2 o’clock. Lewis, of Hancock, moved to recon sider two bills. Ist, to alter 13th sec., and 4th arti cle of the Constitution ; and 2d, in rela tion to education of teachers, and to provide a permanent fund for the com j mon school system. This is Senatus i Acadamcus bill of $4,000,000. The first bill was reconsidered and the latter left j on the table. Mr. Curenton, of Dade, moved to sus ] psnd the regular order to take up his resolutions in relation to the destribu- j tion of the proceeds of the sale of pub lic lands—lost. The bill for the pardon of Barton H. | Brooks, was read a second time. Two! hundred copies of the evidence ordered ] to be printed.

Synopsis of President’s Message. g Washington, Dec. 6.—The President [ commences his message by congratula e ting the country on the contrast of the • agitation which existed in Kansas only one year ago, with the peace and quiet which now prevails. The President refers to the Lecomp -1 ton Constitution, and re-afrirms his for - mer positions on that subject. He o thinks if Kansas had been admitted with that Constitution, the same quiet would have been restored at an earlier f day. Being, however, perfectly willing] 3 to acquiesce in any other constitutional mode of settlement, he signed theKng-] t lish bill ; and expresses the opinion I ■ that when Kansas again applies for ad- I mission as a State, she will have the 1 ; number of population required by that ] } ! bill. . j He goes at length into a discussion t 1 of the questions involved in the admis i! sion of new States, and recommends; j ] the passage of a general law, by which ] I I no new State shall be admitted unless; r she has a population sufficient to entitle ’ her to one Representative. The President congratulates Congress 1 i ' 1 on the settlement of our Utah difficul- , ties without the effusion of blood. Ho compliments the conduct of the; . officers of the army in Utah, and ex-: \ presses satisfaction at the course pursu -1 ed by Gov Alfred Camming, and honor- j ‘ bly mentions Col. Kano. 1 In relation to tlie treaties recently • made between this country and the go s vernments of China and Japan, the] 1 President considers, particularly in the ] j j case of China, that our neutral policy ! ..! contributed much in our favor. Both! o treaties, he says, will prove of great i- importance to the trade and commerce 1 of this country. ® He congratulates the country on the il abandonment of the right of search, l- on the part of Great Britain, r In reference to Central American as- ] e j fairs, lie says that negotiations are still j j progressing, and he lias not yet aban s doned all hopes of success. He refers to k what lie stated in his message last year Mto Congress, and in that connection 'M states'that his views on the subject of! ■ e ] the Isthmus routes accord with the pol . t j icy heretofore announced by Secretary J e j Cass. His object only is to keep the I 11 ! routes open, and desires no other privil-: j eges for the United States than we shall j ’ j expect other nations to enjoy. But this j | government will not consent that those! i j Isthmus routes shall be closed by the I ■| imbecility of nations which reside nearj ’ f them. ) Tlie President regrets that the Nica I ragua route has been closed, and refers : to tlie necessity of enforcing our claims 1 ! against Nicaragua and Costa Rica. 1 Mexico, the President says, is in a s ! condition of civil war, and scarcely any 1 j hope exists of her restoration to a per- 1 i inanent government. He refers to the j j causes which led to a rupture of our 1 | diplomatic relations with Mexico and j 1 j awards a handsome compliment to the J ' | Hon. John Forsyth for his services as j 1 Minister there. |' If it were not for the mere hope of! c | obtaining justice from the liberal party j c }in Mexico—a party which now appears £ |to he approaching to power—the Presi- *■ ! dent says he would recommend taking ! possession of such portion of that coun try, as would prove a sufficient indem- j nity to us for ail our claims and griev- j ances. In North Mexico, bordering on our Territory, there are other considerations which claim our attention. We are in- j terested in the peace of that section, In , | that neighborhood reside lawless Indi- ( j dians, who enter our settlements in | | Arizona, and there seems no other way ( | that this trouble or eifficulty can be re | moved, than by establishing military ( ] posts in Sonora aud Chihuahua. He re- . j commends this to be done, regarding , Mexico as in a state of imbecility and , | anarchy. As to Spain, the President refers to i j the causes which delayed the appoint- i I ment of a successor to the Hon. A. O. ! Dodge, former Envoy Extraordinary ! j and Minister Plenipontentiary, and says J that Mr. Preston, his successor, will go out with full powers to settle all diffi ■ culties with Spain as soonj as possible. The President says that Cuba ought j-l to belong to this country; and re ' commends that steps he taken for itß s 1 purchase. As we have acquired all new i territory by honorable negotiation, this B should not be an exception, j In regard to the tariff laws the Presi i dent reaffirms his former opinion in fa vor of specific duties on certain articles, y and submits the whole question to the 6 enlightened consideration of Congress j The President calls attention to the r proposed Pacific railroad, and refers to 1 the suscesss of the overland mails as ! showing the practicability of the route. Among other subjects the President | reiterates his former recommendation to establish a Territorial government in i Arizona. Later from Havana. New Yoke.

Synopsis of UepaiTment Reports.

Post Orncr. Department.—Secretary Brown, of the Post Oflice Department, I recemmends that the franking privilege ' be abolished, and the issue of stamps 'be substituted. He deprecates the transmission of heavy matter by mail, | and recommends the adoption of uniform i j rates of postage at five cents ; favors i the establishment of a line of mail | steamers from San Francisco to Japan | and China.

Department of the Interior —Sec- ! retary Thompson of the Interior Depart- j : ment states that the revenue received ! last year from the sale of public lands, j amounted to $2,000,000.

He advises the extension of the pre-emption laws over the territory i of Utah. Navy Department. —Secretary Touchy recommends an increase in the number of officers of the Navy, of all casses, and favors the purchase of all the ves sels lately chartered for the Paraguay expedition. He also recommends the j construction of ten light draft steamers. War Department.— Secretary Floyd, of the War Department, gives it as his opinion that the Nevajo and Camanche j 1 war, just commenced, will prove to be j' fierce and bloody ; but lie states that it j' will be vigorously prosecuted. He re commends but few new fortifications, ! j and those only at exposed points. His estimates for the next year are $3,000,- , 000 less than laEt year. President's Itlessngj. Washington, Dec. G.—l send you the following, in addition to the synopsis ; transmitted to day. The President specially desires Con- ' gress to leave no outstanding difficulties with Great Britain. No other two na tions can do each other more good, or more harm. Nicararagua presents the only difficulty in the way of the closest bonds of amity between England and the United States. Speaking of Cuba, the President says that Cuba officials have again and again insulted our flag, and injured our citi zens. Diplomatic delays have gone on year after ysar, and no repiration has been received, except in the Warrior { case. He wants the Captain General of: Cuba to be invested with the necessary power and authority to settle all mat ters in dispute between us, without tan talizing references to Madrid. The fact is, continues the President Cuba, in her present condition, is a constant source of injury and annoyance to the Ameri can people; she caused the recent trou ble with Great Britain and this country, which grew out of the visitation of our merchant ships. We should not, if we could, acquire Cuba by any but honorable means, and the President urges that repeated offers be made to purchase Cuba. So long as we do not exercise control over that Island, it will continue to place our re lations with Spain in jeopardy. Spain need not be ashamed or fastidious about selling Cuba—Napoleon Bonaparte sold > Louisiana. Congress should authorize the Presi dent to make a cash advance immedi ately on concluding the purchase of Cu ba. In the meantime, the Spanish Amistead claims are just, and they I should be paid. Mexico owes to the people of the II nited States about $11,000,000, but she is bankrupt and so powerless that I she cannot protect her citizens from l forced loans, or our frontiers from ag ’ j gressions by her lawless people. liepri j -als on our part are not only in accord . ance with international law, but are tire oniv means of averting actual wav. The anarchy prevailing in Mexico, | prevents the settlement of the Tcrrito-; j ry of Arizona. The President recommends that this j | government shall assume a temporary protectorate over Northern portions of Chihuahua and Sonora, and establish military posts thereon, to be withdrawn ! when ever Mexico is capable of govern j ing herself. The political condition of the Isthmus | is of the utmost importance to us. The j j President advises all conflicting transit j Companies to settle their difficulties be- j ' fore some competent tribunal, but says j that the commerce of tire world should j ! not be c< mprlled to wait until such dtf- j j ferences M ere satisfactorily adjusted. ’ Nicaragua may charge a reasonable j | sum for the right of way through her ■ Territory, and assess fair custom house charges, if she will, but she must not close the route to our possessions on the Pacific. If Nicaragua does close this' route, the President asks for the au : thority of Congress to employ the land f j and naval forces of the country to keep the route open when required, and the troops to be withdrawn when the neecs- I sity ceases. The President recommends the same ; i policy to be applied to the Panama and ! Tehuantepec routes. L T nless Cosia Rica and Nicaragua j makes an early and peaceful settlement ;of the difficulties existing between us, ]it only remains for us to employ the ' ' necessary force to command a settle-; ment. The Government of Granada has of-1 ; sered a new treaty which will remove j iall difficulties with that State. She' probably will not again attempt to en | force a tax on our passengers and com ! mearce. With the government of Brazil our relations are of a friendly character.— ! jWe are in diplomatic correspondence I with her, and urging her to abolish her j 1 high duties, as well as urging a settle ment of the claims of our citizens against her.

The gastric i fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude i nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, while his digestive organization was paralysed and unstrung, becomes, under the j wholesome revolution created in the system, the ' basis of activitv. strength and health. , The nervous sufferer, while tormerted by the * ! acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux |or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague tor ! rors, wakened bv periodical fits, threatened with < 1 paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that ! terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack ol ■ nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain , or disability arisingfrom the ucnaturalconditiou ; of the wonderful machinery which connects ev-1 1 cry member with the source of sensation, mo |lion and thought—derives immediate benefit 1 from the useof this Cordial, which at once cairns,, : invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous | organization. ' Females who have tried it are unanimo* sin | declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that j 'woman has ever received from the ha r ds of medical men. Morse's Invigorating Elixir has a direct, lm-. mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite j While it renews the strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid material which is to be subjected to their action. As an j appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopeia. If lor.glile and the vigor necessary to its en . joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of ! precious worth Its beneficial effect? are not c nflnbd to either sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the aiding i wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn . man or business, the victim of nervous depres-. j =ion, the individual suffering from general de I bilily or from the weakness of a single organ , wiilall find, immediate and permanent relief from the use of this incomparable ren >vafor. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it s ■ will prove a complete an l unfailing safe guard 1 against that terrible milady. 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 i .'erence to the causes, and will not only remove | the disorder itself, hut rebuild the broken con stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush !of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self* de struction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, generai prostration, irritability, nervous- j ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to l'e i males, decay of the propagating functions, hys ! jteria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from whatever cau?c arising, it is, if there is any reli- j ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute-; ly infallible.

To keep the liver in the proper performance of its duties is to keep the system in a state ot health, and free from all bodily ills. Dr. Sandford's INVIGORATOR is a great Regu lator of tub Liver. It instills into it new life and vjgor, strengthens it, and invigorates it, curing the lountain from whence so many streams of sickness flow. We say to all who nre troubled with any derangement of the Liv er, such as dyspepsia, Jaundice, Sick Headache, Billiousness or debility of system, do not fail to try Dr. Sanford's Ijvkk Tnvigorator. decl m |g"Mr. Editor:—Please an nounce ALPHEUS M.
