LOCAL MATTERS^ .\otlce. ■yfe would call attention to Spears & Height’s advertisement, of a superior Lubricating Grease, for all kinds of heavy machinery, water wheels, wag-1 gons. carts, omnibuses, &e., in another! column. A Progressive Age, A white lad, about ten years of age, and a mulatto boy about the same, bo longing to the genu; “Young America” Wishing to keep pace with tiie progres sive spirit of the age, as is the custom of the “bhoys” of uppertendom, in New York, and adopting said custom, with the exception perhaps ot driving a span of line horses, indulged freely in their fondness for theexliiiirating ’nice of the grape and the society of the la dies. But as it required the rbot of all evil to assist them in their progress, and their exchequer was; beginning to give signs of being exhausted, they en gaged in the Wholesale Shirt Trade, getting their stock at the lowest possi ble figure (0) they sold them at immense profit. They imagined that the house from which they per loined their stock was owned by some of the rip YanWinkle school from Sleepy Hollow, but they mistook the man. The goods were taken at night while the atten tion of the store keeper was directed to another part of the building. They are now in tlie custody of the proper au thorities. - Seasonable* Ilinta. If you wish to rent a iior.se, don’t go running all over town asking every man you meet if lie knows of any place to rent, but advertize in (he Dispatch. It will only cost you one dollar for three publications. If you have a house to rent don’t let it stand tenant less until the rats take possession of it, but adveatise in the Dis patch. Everybody takes the paper— if they don’t they ought to. If you have a heavy stock of goods, and notes falling clue, don’t wait until grace day, trusting to luck for the mon ey, but advertize in the Dispatch, and our word for it your money draw will fur nish you ample means to pay out —pro- vided you don’t owe too much. If you have wood to sell don’t let your drivers spend half the day crying out— “wood here- fine oak wood, only four dollars a cord ” —lut advertise that you will deliver it at that price, and if you don’t sell all you can haul we will at least agree to take a load for the advertisement. If you want a horse, a cow, a dog, or anything useful or ornamental, adver tise, and if you have any such commo dities to sell, do the same. There is nothing like advertising, at least noth ing that suits us better. Try a few dol lars in that way, and if it don’t pay 44 repeat the dose.” If it don’t do any good, it is a perfectly harmless experi ment, and you might make a fortune by it. Who knows? ► What out* Neighbor* Say of L's. Bronson of the Barnwell Sentinel, whose visit we noticed last week, in bis notes on bis late trip to this city : Augusta, at the present time presents a very animated apperauce, and busi ness of all kinds is looking up. The streets are thronged with wagons, &c., all heavily laden with supplies, and not only those we have spoken of, hut all othersseem to be doing a good busi ness, and on all sides there is an indi catien of prosperity. New buildings are going up, and the city is daily grow ing in size. Cotton is also pouring into market, and for the size of the place, there are few better marts. Augusta is a desirable place to live in, and when we visit it we feel at home. Augusta merchants know how to make their customers feel at home.— They sell them goods at low figures,and if they buy cotton or other produce they pay for it promptly. Farmers do not have to sit about the hotels, or stroll about town looking at signs, until 11 o’clock, before they can transact their business. The Augusta merchants are enterprising, and buy right, and then they are industrious and sell right, and that is why the mercantile interests of Augusta have grown to be so important, and are constantly improviug.

The late Dr. Boynton, was once dis puting with a farmer about the ease with which the minister earned money. “Now.” said the farmer, “when youj are called upon to marry a couple, you never expect a less sum than three dol lars, and yon sometimes get ten dollars! —this for a few miqutes’ service.” “Pooh !” replied the Doctor, “I would agree to give you half my next mar-! riage fee for a bushel of potatoes.” “Very well,” said tlie farmer, “I '.i take yotir offer and send you the pota- ; toes. ’ ’ A few days afterwards, lie was called; ■ on to splice a loving couple at Dogtown, • a place about four miles from where he lived. When the ceremony was; | over, tlie bridegroom said to the worthy j : minister— •• Well, parson. I s’ pose I must foil:; over something fi r your trouble. What say you to taking one of my terrier! pups? The best breed, I tell you, in! the country, chocking nice to have in! the barn. Worth full five dollars, and, 1 suppose a figure two would do for the’ splice, eh ?” Ihe Doctor took the pup with joy.— The joke was too good ; he hastened to! the farmer, saying : “Now. friend, here is my fee—how! shall we divide it ? ' The farmer relished the joke so well that lie increased the potatoes to haif-a --■ dozen bushels. I - - —- Ten Thousand Dollars in the Suds.— ' An ex-banker of Cincinnati, who “went ’ under, during the "late financial crisis” and was compelled, by “outside pres . sure," to “shut up shop,” and endeav . or to realize assets amply” sufficient to cover all his tie-abilities, was thrown into a wild state of excitement on Tuesday last —so humorously remarks r the Commercial, of that city. He was ~ in fact in a condition of mind bordering upon phrenzy. It seems that he has a ’ queer habit of having breeches washed. ' He sends them out to a laundless. Last - Thursday the ex-banker’s unwliispera r bb went out, as usual —one pair, at , least- -but the washerwoman,from some unexplained cause, dilatory, and did not put the breeches into suds as promptly as she was wont. Saturday t ame, she concluded to lav the job over until tl.e first of tho week. Monday 3 she was interrupted, and the uamen f tionahles were again put aside until ? Tuesday. That morning, however,she t resolved to dispose of the contract, and e accordingly she prepared the instru ments. She got water hot, the suds made, and held the “breaks" by tlie t waistband, and, was about to subject e them to bydrophatic treatment, when her hand was suddenly arrested, and her heart sent strugglng into her throat by a furious rapping at the door. She hesitated, stood aghast between , terror and her wash tub, but before she 1 had time to collect her faculties her . patron stood before her, liis features distorted, his eyes blazing witli frantic r excitement. Surveying her an instant, he screamed rather than interrogate.!, - “Have you— Have you— washed my breeches? Have you washed my breech t es? You've ruined me, ruined me ; , have you washed my”—but suddenly ‘ catching a glimpse of the garment still ■' clutched hv the suspended hand of the e terrified laundress, he leaped forward , with nervous energy, and snatching I them from her, he ran his ow n hand hastily along the waistband until he ' uiet with something that satisfied his de sire, and sinking down in a chair he r fairly went into hysterics. By this time . the poor woman found voice and asked him “why, Mr. , what is the mat ter ?” “Oh, woman, woman," lie soh “ bed, “what an escape! There is ten - thousand dollars in those breeches - - Where's your scissors! Get them,quick. ,■ Had you washed those breeches. I , would have been ruined. What au es -1 cape!” The laundress got tbescissors; the seam of the waistband was ripped ■ open in an instant, and before her as tonished gaze behold layers of bank bills — of what value she knew not, save that he repeated, “ten thousand hol . la its, TEN thousand dollars ! What - an escape ! What an escape !" ■ c-. A Fine Lady in the old Times. 5 People who complain of the extrava • gance of our day iu women's dress, of ten talk of the economy of our grand . mothers. Let them look at the bill of 1 a lady’s wardrobe, in 17X9, given in Go t dey’s Lady's Book : “A smock, of cambric Holland, 11. ■ 25.; a Marseilles quilted peticoat, 3 1. Gs.; -a hoop petticoat, covered with iabb, 11 - lbs.) a French silk quilted petticoat, 10? i a manta and petticoat, oi French bro , cade, 7S I ; a French lace point ruffles i and tucker, 80?.; necklace, II?. 55.; Eng-; 1 lish stays, coverel with tabb, 3?; a Flanders lace handerchief, 10? ; an Ital i ian fan, 5?.; a black silkrt la mode hood. 15s ; a blace lace ditto, 0?. os.; French embroidered bosom knot. 1/. 2s; pockets of Marseilles quilting, 11?. 6.».; muff, 5/.; sable tippet, 15?.; lining, of Italian lus : taring, 8?.; Turkey handerchief, si. 5s ; hat, of Leghorn, 11. 10s.; beaver hat, for the forest, with feather, 3?.; a riding suit, with Parisian embroidery, 47?. 10s.; ' three dresses, for the masquerade—two , from Venice, 36?.; one from Paris, cf green velvet, set with pearls and rubies, 103?. 15. Besides these, there were shoes, stockings, gloves, pomatums, patches, powder, &c.; the whole footing up not far short of $2,500. The beau of 1727 is represented as dressed in a fine liueu shirt, the ruffles and bosom of mechlin lace, a small wig, with ail enormous queue or tail: his coat well garnished with lace, black velvet breeches, red heelß to his shoes, and gold clasps to his stockings ; his hat beneath his arm, a sword by his side and himself well scented.” A City Seven Hundred Years Old. —The Vienna correspondent of the Loudon Times states that on the 17th of September there was a festival at Munich in commemoration of the 700th anniversary of the day on which the city was . founded Anything more | magnificent and imposing than the pro-1 cession which passed through its streets on the above mentioned day has seldom 1 been witnessed. The procession, which was composed of three thousand per sons and five hundred horses, contained tableaux of the principal events which have occurred in Bavaria during the last seven centuries, and the portraits of the more remarkable personages who have figured in South German history during that period. Tom Thumb.—A hull dog attacked Gen. Tom Thumb's ponies lately, as lie was riding to the Teutonic Hall, at Liv erpool. The ponies ran at great speed, and it was with difficulty that the Gen eral was rescued. His valet was knock ed down and injured, one of his ponies was seriously wounded, and the carriage broken. ..The . Epidemic, or .1858 at New Or- j i.eins— The yellow fever has about! ceased its ravages at New Orleans, after prevailing with more or less severity! : since July. During the period extend j 1 ingfrom June 20th to Nov. 21st, the j official reports of interments show that 1 the deaths in tlie city amounted to 8,- i 296, of which 4.840 were of yellow : fever and 3,446 of other diseases. It appears that the greater partxif the mortaility was between the 25th of July and the 14th of November, which may be regarded as the beginning and end; of the fever's prevalence as an epidem ■ [; ic. During that time, a period of six , i teen weeks, or one hundred and twelve j • days, tlie deaths were from yellow fever ; 4.794, other diseases 2,766, total 7,560! ■ This is at the average rate of about 473 ! per week, or about67 per day. The ; average population of New Orleans <ln t ring the epidemic was probably not ri more than 160,000. i| ••••* i Keep your temper in disputes The L cod hammer fashions the red hot iron . into any shape needed.
