Newspaper Page Text€ timing Dispatch.' a O’CLOCK P. M, DEC. 13,183 H. Notice to Advertisers. Advertisements for tlie Evkxino Dispatch must be handed in by eleven o'clock in the forenoon, in or ier to appear the same day. LOCAL MATTERS. Notice. We would call attention to Sfeabs & Hjght’s advertisement, of a superior Lubricating Grease, for all kinds of heavy machinery, water wheels, wag gons, carts, omnibuses, &c., in another column. Concert flail—Burton. This great commedian makes his first and only appearance to night in his great charters of Aminadab Sleek and Toodles. It is unnecessary to do more than make this simple announcement, to fill Concert Hall. We are assured by Mr. Makchaxt that this will positively he his only ap pearance, as he is obliged to leave for New Orleans at one o’clock to-morrow morning. “ lectures to the Young.” This course of Lectures by Itcv. J. E. Everson, is proving to be very instruc tive and interesting, Notwithstanding the inclement weather of last Sunday evening, he had a large and attentive congregation, to listen to his third Lec ture, “the Scientific objections to Chris tianity considered.” He reviewed, iu their order, the prominent objections urged by celebrated Astronomists, Geo legists and Historians. In astronomy he reviewed and refuted tlie following objections: The Mosaic account of the creation of tlie Sun, Moon and Stars is opposed to the present (Newtonian) sys tem ; tlie planetary system is described in that account as it appeared to be, and not as it is; because it says thht light was created before the Sun ; the sun and moon is said to have stood still at Josh ua's command ; the improbability of the sun and stars being created for the ben efit of our world solely ; and the mag nitude of the Works of God inconsis tent with the interest He is said to take in our behalf. In Geology, the objections based upon the theory that there aio indications that the world is of greater ago than tlie Mosaic account; tlie various stratas of shells, &c.; fossil remains of ani mals now extinct; the evidences of a change in the earth's surface ; and the utter impossibility of the deluge, were likewise met. 'Jhe objections based upon the Egyptian Eclipses, tlie Chinese Eclipses, Indian chronology and tlie Egyptian Zodiac, once so pertinaciously urged by historians, ho showed to have been proved fallacious and untenable by the researches of infidel men of sci ence. In the discussion of this theme, he gave evidence of an intimate ac quaintance with the subject, as well as with the theories and opinions of men of science. We hopo that all our young men especially—will avail them selves of the opportunity of listening to this course of lectures, and attend them. We trust that this lecture may be repeated. Dlouut Vernon. Mr. Eve, tlie indefatigable Vice Re gent of the Mount Vernon Association ac knowledges in the morning papers, the receipt of SSO from the Clinch Hides of this city. A noble example, which we hope every military corps in the State will emulate. The memhers of the Ilook & Ladder company sent up S tl a few days ago. gfp Has anything been heard of El der Hyde, tlie reformed Mormon.— When here last winter he expressed a strong intention to return to Augusta and practice law. [COMMUNICATED.] Mr. Editor Permit me through your paper to call public attention to the practice of the Georgia Railroad, in the receiving of goods at their freight Depot. The Mercantile community of this place do not receive their letters from tlie Post Office until ten o’clock, A. M. Consequently the time they have for sending out the articles order ed is limited, and tlie Georgia Railroad have established a rule that “ no goods will be received at the Depot after five P. M.” and if an unlucky drayman hap pens to drive to the door after that hour—evert five minutes after, he is peremptorily ordered back with his load. I have been informed that the Georgia Road is about the only Road South where they will not receive goods at any hour during the day. There are other points that I will at a future time call the attention of the directors to. A Merchant. Steamer “Oak” Sunk. —We learn, with regret, says the Pulaski Times, that this steamer struck a snag some fifteen miles below Macon on last Sunday, on her downward trip, and sunk. ([?:’ “The Valley Tan” is tho name of a new paper just started in Utah, by Kirk Anderson. [ Written for the A itgimta Dispatch. J From “ We never met. yet my wild, weary heart Turns to thee in devotion : its wild dreams Are all of thee. Thy breathing strains impart Magic, and hope, and love, until it seems, That deep within my soul a new life starts. Whose thought hire angel’s with beauly teems, y seize my quivering harp to make a strain, And wait tho music back to thee again.” To Ar.fl have we never met ? Oh, cruel fate ! If my faint Btrains have reached thy car, And brought new life into thy soql, Why wilt thou not that life improve, < And all its wildest dreams attain ? < Oh, would I could, some strain awake, ■ft’hose magic voice could reach thy soul And tell it all my heart would say ; Then thou would’st wish that we had met. JRv h "0.-nd county.; Dec. ICth, 1858. [Written for the Evening Dispatch.] i Lines In Memory of? Ir. Samuel M. Thompson. HY JKXNY WOODBINE. One by one earth’s children perish, One by one they disappear ; Every day some bre ken circle Wcepoth o’er a vacant chair. Yes—the good, the brave, tho faithful Perish daily at their post ; And upon the air is sounding Wailing for the loved and lost. Aye, too oft with bitter sorrow We some pale dead face can see Resting on its snowy pillow— Now the grave has yawned for thee. Yes—the last sad rites are over, And the earth has claimed Us own ; While the freed and heaven born spirit Ventures to the Great Unknown. Ah ! thy heart was kind and gentle, Friend to all the human race ; In each day of thine existence, We some deed of kindness traie. But thy work on earth i 3 ended— Now thy hands are cold an l chill; And with tender though*s of pity Nevermore thy pulse shall thrill. They, with whom thou last hast labored. They shall miss thee everywhere, At thine oi l accustomed window They shall see thy vacant chair. They shall miss thy morning greeting, And with grief their inarts will bow ; For thy pen is lying idle, And thy chair is empty now. And thy brother Masons miss thee, Thou the faithful and tho good, In the halls where thou hast mingled With the gentle brotherhc ;d. When once more they shall assemble, Each ia bis accustomed place, They will look, but look all vainly, lor thy kind familiar face. But a deeper grief lias fallen On the lonely widowed heart, Bound to thee by ties the strongest, Ties that naught but .; tth could part Well I know her heart Wits breaking, And her cup of woe was Ailed, When the last fond kiss was given To the lips that death had chilled. On the fatherless is resting Grief that youth but ill can bear ; And their youthful hearts are beating ’Neath a dark and chill despair. May a tender,pitying Father Soothe their anguish deep and wild , Angels kind watch o’er the widow And the lonely orphan child. Augusta Ga. THE OCEAN* STEAMERS.
