(£tuning tlispafrl. AUUljH'i ATGEO: Tnrsdny Brnilnfi Jnn. 4, 1859. Our Pni>or. The present is a favorable time to sub scribe for newspapers. We offer our daily to the reading public as a cheap and reliable news journal; and our ■weekly is a large fireside paper, publish ed so low as to be within the reach of all: Daily papers arc now prime neces sities with business men, and the time is not distant when they will supercede weeklies and tri weeklies at all points having daily mail service. At four dol lars a year there is no reading as cheap as a daily paper, and as conservators of popular intelligence, they arc invalua ble. Our paper, occupying a position out side all political parties, as a free and easy looker on in the world of politics, is acceptable to all parties, and especial ly adapted to the wants of the home circle, where it will interest, enliven and instruct both young and old, and add many a sunny tint to the changing hues of the dawning year. We are about to secure such editorial assistance as will enable us to devote more care to the contents of the paper, and to add especially to its commercial informa tion. Wo shall spare no reasonable ex ertion to add to the interest and value the papef, as it grows in age and in circulation. Will not our friends, at this particular period of the year, speak a good word for us ? If our paper is as useful as those published at about dou ble its price, why not induce your friends to save their money by patron izing the Dispatch ? Obedience to taw. Some of the Northern press allude ’ to the Echo and Wanderer cases, as illus trating a woful lawlessness on the part of the Southern people, and affording evidence that our institutions induce a disregard of constitutional obligations. They seem to forget the burns case, and the Simms case, and a thousand other cases where fugitives have been rescued by violence, and the United States authorities treated with contempt and in some instances killed in their efforts to enforce a constitional law.— Nobody has heard of any such conduct toward the officers engaged iu ferreting out the “pirates,”—aud if anybody is convicted we are quite sure that the majesty of the law will not be interfer red with. The boy who was “rescued” in Savannah was left in charge of an old negro and if his dignity as assistant in the affair was not duly respected, it must be attributed to the fact that our people are not accustomed to call in negroes to help execute laws. We have not a word to say in advoca cy of a disregard for law ; and have the actors in this innovation upon the custom of the times to take care of themselves. If they succeed in produc ing a charge in popular sentiment, and in doing away the absurd enactment ot a darker age—an age when all oui statesmen regarded slavery an evil and anjincuhus— they will have accomplished a great work for the commercial wants of the world, and for the cause of pliil anthropy and human progress. If any should expiate the offence for piracy, will suffer martyrdom in a cause ck b ittr tl an many that have deluged /a io 8 in sanguinary conflict. Y j *••-- / Vale.— From the last number of the / Bainbridgt Argus, we learn that Miss f Annie R. Blount, (Jenny Woodbine,) f has dissolved her connection with that paper, and will hereafter write for the Lumpkin Palladium. Miss Blount is a young lady of fine talents, and we con gratulate the readers of the Palladium on her accession to its list of contribu tors editorial corps. . [communicated.] Mr. Editor .—The frequent report of Fire Arms recently heard in our streets, at night would justly lead a stranger to suppose there was no safety out of doors after nine o’clock, and some of our own citizens have good reason to be lieve they are not entirely exempt from danger at their own firesides. Last Sabbath when returning from Church in company with others I distinctly | heard three reports of a pistol in rapid ! succession, as though some hostile col- 1 lision had taken place not far distant : from Broad street, which is but a repe tition of what might be heard nearly every night in the week within the cor porate limits. While some allowance may be made for Holiday amusements, I am quite conscious it is not all child's play, inasmuch as two or three evenings ago the inmates of the dwelling in which I reside were suddenly startled ' by the unexpected advent of one of j those dangerous little missels, known i as a lead bullet, which entered the parlor window, (fronting on Broad street,) shattering the glass and fortunately, j taking effect in the wail, whence it was , immediately extracted without pain, close by a chair which had previously been occupied by a lady. Now Mr. Editor, I would simply ask, | who is responsible for this daring < scoundrelism by which we are beset; where are our City Police when this j .shooting is going on, endangering the lives of our citizens. Are they so total- 1 ]y unlit for the position they occupy, or is our city too to employ j a sufficient force ? One-or the other is j inevitable, else we must attribute it to our inferior ligbtwood gas, which al lows these midnight assassions to es cape the eye of those on whom we rely j for protection. Citizen. . ■•«.. Rev. C. G. Finby, the great revival toreacber, with j his wife have sailed for InM, where a field is open for their Special Correspondence of the Dispatch, Letter from Atlanta, Horrible Murder —Mass netting of Citizens — Efforts to rescue and hang the Murderer — Fire. Atlanta, Jan., 1 1859. The New Year dawned upon us in the midst of a most unusual, and de plorable excitement, occasioned by an other of those disgraceful murders that have stained the record of our city.— Mr. Calvin Webb was shot down in the most cold blooded and brutal manner, by Wm. A. Choice of Rome. It ap pears that Webb as Constable had is issued a ca sa for the sum of ten dollars on Choice, who got bail, but manifes ted great anger at Webb, and tried to assault him, but was prevented. He was afterward heard to threaten to kill him on sight. Webb, having no idea of his purpose was passing the Trost House about eleven o’clook, when Choice drew his pistol aud fired twice, the hall entering the heart, causing in stant death. Choice was arrested and is /*» custody. The greatest excitement prevailed on yesterday, and hundreds of people gathered 1 about the calaboose, deter ■ mined to hang Choice at once. The | Mayor and others made concilitory speeches, and temporarily dispersed the crowd, A subsequent meeting was call ed, at the City Hall in the afternoon at which Rev, Mr. Almond was called to the chair, and E. M. Seago, acted as Secretary. Several speeches in favor of abiding by the laws were made, and resolutions of that import were reau But the excitement seemed to increase, until it was moved to adjourn until ten o’clock this (Saturday) morning, and sleep over the matter. The resolutions were carried, and the crowd dispersed. At dark last night another rush was made at tlie*calaboose, but without ef fect, and during most of the night, * noisy squads could be heard at the cor ners, discussing the most summary ■ means of punishing Choice for this > murderous outrage upon our communi ty. A move desperate and despicable * crime lias never been perpetrated in our ' State. * On Wednesday night, the residence 1 of Wm. Herring, near tlib Trout House, 1 was destroyed by fire. The fire compa -1 nies were on the ground as promptly as r the condition of the streets would per " mit, and prevented the further spread 1 of the flames. Mr. Herring’s loss is ' s4,soo—insured for $2,600. s Fulton. » * * Central Railroad and Banking Co. — ’ At a meeting of Stockholders of this , Company, held yesterday, the following , gentlemen were chosen Directors for the present year : -J.

MOTS’d’S INVIGORATING COR DIAL.—TIio despotic patient, whose stomach lias lost - ”' 5 power of duly converting food into a jlfb-iaistaining clement, is relieved by a single course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric fluid re acquires it 3 solvent power, and the crude 1 nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to j the sufferer, while his digestive organization was paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the wholesomerevolution 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 ol nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from the unnaturelcondition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. Females who have tried it are unanim"' s in declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that woman has ever received from the ha’'ds ot 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 solid material which is to be subjected to their action. As an appetiser it has no equal in the I’harmacopia. Iflonglile and the 'vigor necessary to its en joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed o? precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to Either sex or to any age. The feeble -,ri, 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 of a single organ | will all find immediateandpermanentreiioffrom the use of this incomparable renovator. 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 -1 tion that they think themselves beyond thereach of medicine. Let not even those despair. The ' Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re lerence to the causes, and will not only remove | the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rusn of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts of self dc s siruction, fear of insanity,hypochondriasis, dys pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, bvs teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of ! the heart, impoteucy, constipation, etc., from 1 whatever cause arising, it Is, If there i 3 any reli ' ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly liirainmc.
