Buckley's gereiiaders The performance of this company last night was well received by a large atulier.ee. Tbeir comicalities are very amusing, their music, both vocal and instrumental, is capital, especially in their operatic burlesques, which to those who are familiar with the opera are es pecially rich. Dr. Thompson. Attention is directed to the card of I)r. Thompson, who has taken rooms at the United States Hotel, for the pur pose of treating cancers, &c. We have seen several certificates, given under the seal of the officers before whom they were executed, which speak in the highest terms of his professional skill. Lecture or the Ho* T. 9. Bowen—His Policy— We Approve, According to announcement. Mr. Bowes spoke last night, at the Young Men's Christian Association Rooms, to a laige and attentive audience: subject Central Africa. This gentleman is not of the first order as a speaker, but he is a man of observation, he has an eye for everything while traveling. He is none the less a practical man for being a clergyman, and though practical, his views are broad and his aims are magnificent. After sojourning some months on the Liberian Coast, he penetrated the valley of the Niger, from the Bight of Benin, (Beneen). He gave his audience some account of the county, its productions, vegetable and animal. While the soil is not in his opinion so fertile as some portions of the Southern States, he still considers it sufficiently ricli to support a large population, and furnish the materials for a profitable commerce to any nation who shall secure it by first occupation. The speaker asserted the natural in feriority of the negro, He entertains - no idea that the Africans will ever be able unassisted by the white man to reach a higher grade of civilization than at present, or to proceed farther in the development of the country. He urges upon this country the importance of taking immediate steps to become the masters of the fine territory, which he visited. He points to colonization and commerce as the means. He proposes treaties with the tribes of the Eg ha, Yoruba and other kingd< ms. If they should fail to comply with he te is of the treaties, he would have them ”01 ished, resistance would lie sliglu and return to obedience prompt. Th. as cendency of the white man would . e complete. He left his audience to infer as they naturally would, that the sub jugation of the negroes would he equally complete. He wisely avoided the use in this connection, of a word offensive to Noitliern and some South ern ears. We forbear to write it. We have now to confess that in our previous notions of Mr. Bowen’s plan.- and views, we have done him injustice He is opposed to the slave trade. He suggests something which we confess is better. Surely the policy which we have advocated, of re opening the For eign Slave Trade pales 1 adore his grand scheme as the stars in the presence of a noonday sun. We have proposed to take a few negroes now held as slaves in their original land, and to introduce them to 1 the fields of, the South. Mr. Bowen proposes to take the whole race, mas ters and slaves, nor them alone, but their lands and their climate and their rivers. We asked for a part, a misera ble picavune portion of Afric's sons, he says take the whole concern root, trunk and branch. He is right, we want all Let us seize the whole crowd of negroes from tl:u Cape of Good Hope to the sands of Sahara. Let 11s not waste time and money in transporting them hither. We will put them to work on the soil of their nativity. Then, if our fellow citizens, who are content to re main here under the noses and dicta , tion of Northern fanatics, should need, : we will make them an occasional pres ent of a cargo of well trained African slaves Positively we are ashamed of the lit tleness of the project we have advoca ted and of our stupidity in not earlier understanding the merits of Mr Bowen's plan. Our plan is denounced as irdiu inane, his is philanthrophy ; ours 1111 Christian in thoeyes of the Rock Creek Baptist Chmeh, his is to spread the gospel among a race; ours is unpopular among 4 our Northern brethren, they are sub» , stantially pledged to the execution of his, as well as allured by the hope of ‘ rich argosies of coffee, palm oil and ' elephants teeth. Timeand room prevent ns from dwel ling as we should like upon the superi- 1 orty, over our plan, of his in size, seas- ' ibility and general merit. Our ends . are the same, the agrandizement of the white race and the mediate saiva 1 tion of the black. We have been in the 1 (lark, but we are now in the light, and in return for our adherence to the plan of the reverend gentleman, we hope he will forbear for the future any harsh al lusions to ours We will help him if he 1 will let us alone and thereby help our l ‘ ( 6el ves. ———————„, , m |Hi,,, l imi 1 Iron Ant!

AUGUSTA DISPATCH OFFICE, I January 17. 1858. | REMARKS. —We have te report another quiet week in Cotton and trade generally. At the clo 0 of our last review we reported a decline of ,‘a to % cent on good Cotton, and >4 cent on the lower grades. Since that time there has been uo material ch uge in prices , some sales, how ever have been made at a shade less decline • I on account of the extreme stringency of holders, hut the business cl the week has been liglit, amounting to not moro than 2 or 3,000 bales. Holders are generally uuwitl ng to concede to Hie views of buyers, and prices are rather ir regular. Wo quote nominally, as follows : Good Middling 11)4© Middling Fuir to Fair 11),'©12), Tito receipts of the week amount to 6,006 against 4,' 83 bales the week before. The total receipts at all the ports to our latest dates by mail, amount to 2,058,282 bales, showing an in crease ol 814,762 bales on the last year. It will be seen also that the exports have been 410,102 bales in excess of tlic same period last year, and to Northern p0rt5212,178 bates. This certainly indicates that tho demand for the crop is not yet effected by the excess in receipts, anil ihat iltere will be a demand for the entire crop, even should it reach the highest estimate , which run as high as 3,700,- 00. But we are not disposed to indulge in speculations, which are at best but little belter than guess-work, and pre seut our tables to the in-peclion of all who watch the cotton interest, and leave them to form their own conclusions.

It is not his intention to get up a mere catch penny afftir His desire is to publish a periodi cal which will be eminently useful, not only in I awakening general interest, but in promoting I a general interchange of opinion on Ihe subject ) of education, so as to lead, if possible, to such practical results as will redound to the welfare of our whole people. i To this end, it will be his aim to enlist the first minds of the State as contributors to its ) pages. It is believed tint all Teachers—the Presidents and Professors of our Colleges, as well as those of humbler pretentions—will unite >, in an effort to bring tlie claims of education be- J fore the masses ; oud their aid will be invoked. It will also contain such facts and statistics iu regard to tbeeducationa.l systems of oilier States , us may he considered of interest to our people, rullicient has been said to convey an idea of I its plan aud objects. Tho subscriber now asks I all tlie friends of education in Georgii, who be lieve the publication of such a periodical will do good, to interest themselves in procuring sub* . scribers for it, so as to give it as wide a circu lation as possible.
