tfbtrang jfHspatcjj. ] AUGUSTA, GEO: Thursday Krtulng, Feb. MV WSU. — ——" Lnmpklii Pulladlmu. We have noticed the recent improve ments in this journal, and are pleased to observe that it increases in interest with every number. It deserves a place in every household in the State. Miss Annie R. Buibni, who is one of the edi tors, will receipt for subscriptions. We hope her friends in the city will bestir themselves, and make t up a-large list, ns in so doing they will not only secure a capital Southern paper, but will ren der material encouragement to that young lady, whose struggles, under the eircumstances which surround her, amount to heroism—and whose talents if she be enabled to enjoy the advan tages which she deserves, will secure her the admiration of the age, as they have already won the plaudits of a wide circle of readers and admiring friends. In this connection, it is proper to ob serve that Miss Blount has recently had a prize of SIOO awarded her for the be„t story contributed to the Newbum (N. C.) Gazette. W. Gilmore Simms and John R. Thompson of the Southern Literary Messen ger were on the committee of award, and some of the oldest and best writers of the daf were competitors for the Prize: Adams’ Express Robbery. The Montgomery Mail contains a long report of the examination of Mr. Ma roney, charged with having abstracted the sum of $40,000, delivered to the Adams Express Company for transpor tation. The evidence for the prosecu tion is based upon the suspicion that Mr. Maronky, who was the agent at Montgomery, did not deposit the pack ages of money in the punch or pocket in which it is the custom of the Com pany to convey money and other valu able articles, but abstracted it by a species of slight-of-hand trick. .. . m . • ,« x 1 . r il _ ! It seems that it is the duty of the messenger, who travels with articles in transit, either to deposit or see them deposited in the pouch. The agent locks the pouch and retains the key.— The only duplicate key to the lock (which cannot be picked) is in the' hands of the agent at the end of the route. In this case, the robbing was discovered when the pouch was deliver ed to the agent at Atlanta, by compari son of the contents of the pouch with the way bills. The lock of the pouch was uninjured and,at that time, nothing appeared to account for the disappear ance of the packages. The theory of the prosecution ap pears to be that Mr. Maroxey abstract ed the money while pretending to de posit it in the pouch at Montgomery. To make this evident, they show from the evidence of the messenger that it was easy for him to throw as many packages as he pleased under the coun ter, on one side of which he was, while the messenger was on the other—that Maroxey had held the bag, with its mouth below the edge of the counter, *o that the messenger could not have seen the packages deposited in it; tha( it was not the agent, but the messen ger's duty to place the packages in the pouch ; that Maroxey had, without authority.assumed that duty. There are some other minor points, all going to crimiuate Mr. Maroxey. In defence, it is shown that the car, in which the safe of the messenger was carried, was unlocked, and that persons passed freely through it—that the mes senger on different occasions, left his car for several minutes at a time—and finally that a hole was found cut in the pouch. To this it is answered that the safe could not be opened by any picklock and that, as to the cut in the pouch, the package could not have been abstracted through that, as it was too small to to permit its passing that; if it was taken out piecemeal, there would have been some fragments of paper, sealing wax, &c., left in the pouch, which was not the case, that thp cut was not dis covered until a day or two afterwards, when it was discovered by Maronky himself, through whose hands it had again passod, and that from the fresh appearance of the cut, nothing, either lingers or money had passed through it. From this, the inference, will be at tempted to be drawn that Maronbt made the cut upon its coming into his hands.the second time, to divert sus picion from himself. We are unable to publish the testi mony in full, on account of its length, but we give this summary, as we know many here feel interested in the case. All the evidence is not yet published, and we know not what circumstances may appear in Mr. Maronky’s favor. We sincerely hope, however, the case will resnit in the establishment of hi 6 innocence, as he has hitherto borne an irreproachable character. He has been bound over to await his trial at the next session of the Circuit Court. — The Savannah Republican notices a new invention for cleaning rice, call ed the rice pm, which the inventor elaims will clean 85 to 40 bushels per hour, anu never break a grain.

Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. Washington, D. C., i February 7, 1869. ) Recent occurrences convince me that i [ was r ight in the communication of I ] as t week, in relation to the nextpresi- Idential election. It is understood that Mr. Stephens declines are-election and it is for the purpose of being perfectly free and unembarrassed to go into the canvas for Gen: Lane with all the power he possesses. Breckenridoe, who is a first class statesman, will be the Secretary of State; Stephens will be in the Cabinet, proba bly as Secretary of the Interior, a place which he is well qualified to fill, from his long legislative experience, and po sition aR Chairman of the Committee on. Territories. Your readers are well qualified to decide whether lain probably corrector! not. For Ido not believe that many of them are green enough to think that such things are not all pre-arranged in side of the “ropes” put up to keep back the public from two familliar knowl edge of, and participation in the con struction of government affairs. Conventions are ostensibly prelimina ry bodies in which, and through which the public sentiment is indicated and expressed. But really they are usually convocations of delegates from the “dear people” whose business is to open their mouths, shut their eyes, re ceive and swallow the generally sugar coated pills, which, are prepared in the Alopatbic Political,Laboratory expressly for the occasion, to be washed down with the slush called “resolutions.” The penalty for the exhibition of a “wry face,” or any visible nauseating emotions is proscription and banish ment from the line of promotion, which salutary regulation results in nomina tions of “great unanimity,” “with spontaneous acclamation” and “great satisfaction.” Great is Diana of the Ephesians! Great was liarnum, and greater were the crowds to see his “wooiy horse” and “feejee mermaid!!” The most prominent man in Congress at this time is Objection Joxes, of Tenn. 'flie New York Herald calls him a regu lar Abigal Folsom sort of a member.— Nothing requiring unanimous consent ever gets over his head without get-i ting bluffed, by call for yeas and nays or some one of the thousand other tricks to defeat legislation, worry and embar rass public do hope he will \ get the consent of some of your neigh bors in Tennessee to stay at borne. With a view to save (?) 100 dollars to the country he can keep the House a whole day, from doing a thing, except make their whole proceedings a farce. Probably there will be some commo tion in political circles as to who shall succeed Sterhexs in Congress from the Eighth District. Let them see to it that a man is selected who will be an honor to the place and who can be re turned year after year until he becomes diitinguiehed like his predecssor. Stelleo. A charter has been obtained, and the work commenced on a railroad from Tocoi, near Picolata, Fla., to St. Au -1 gustine. Washington Irving Iras contributed SSOO to the Mount Vernon fund. A Southern member of Congress has applied fora patent to an invention of one of his slaves. There is no case on record where a free negro has applied for a patent. A negro girl belonging to the editor of the North Alabama 'limes has been badly scalded by the explosion of an " Old Dominion Coffee pot.” Not the first case of the kind on record. The Committee on Commerce in the House have decided upon reporting the fishing bounty abolition bill. Maggie Mitchell is playing at she Richmond, Va. Theatre. It is proposed to charter the Union Bank of British America, in Canada, wiih a capital of $25,000,000, to operate with a specie circulation.

The books of subscription, for the purpose of increasing the capital stock of the Southern Bank of Alabama to the amount of $250,000, will be opened on 7th March next, at Mobile. The new fountain at Washington city throws a stream of ninety-nine feet, through a nozzle measuring one inch and a quarter, and with a four inch throws a stream of thirty-five feet.--- Though there are bigger squirts than that about the National Capitol, yet its performances excite much admiration. The distress which prevails in some of the townships of the county of Bruce in Canada, is represented as most appalling. There are hundreds of fam ilies verging on starvation—the crops of the past year having almost proved a total failure.

What is it doing for the Sick —FRANCIS FELIX, only man ufacturer of the original “Fxtract of Coffee,” i says :—“I know that your Holland Bitters is I one of tlie best med.cines in the world for dis ordered stomach or liver.” Dr. I.L'Owic), Editor of the ‘Fackel,’ Raltimorc, pronounces it a medicine deserving the confi . deDce of the public. Dr. Ehkhaki, the leading German Physician of Pennsylvania, lias prescribed it frequently du i, ring the last three years, with marked success, i In debilitated states of tbe digestive organs, or > of the system generally. TheManagerof B lion’s Vinegar Factory, says : ' ‘‘l U3ed it myself, and was therefore induced to try its effect upon iny wife, (troubled with the j debility common to all of a consumptive liabit,) -1 and.rcally i is doing her More good than any * thing she has ever taken.’' febl _ _ d4c6 _ - fiTThe Great Problem ’ Solved!-DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR ' DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach - lias lost the power of duly converting food into a A i life sustaining element, is relieved by a single I course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric 1 fluid r 0 acquires its solvent power, and the crude nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, whilehts digestive organization was paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the 1 wholesome revolution created in the system, the ’ basis of activity, strength and health. ? The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the * acute, physical agony ot Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with ’ paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that I j terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack o. * nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain or disability arising from the unnatv.ral condition of the wonderful machinery which connects ev -1 ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit ’ from the useof this Cordial, which atoncecalms, ’ invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization. s Females who have tried it are uuammoi sin declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that 3 woman has evor received from the hards of 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 t appetiser it has no equal In the Pharmacopia. If long lite and the vigor necessary to its en joyment are desirable, tills medicine is indeed of ' precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to either t; sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing s j wife, tlie 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 ’ willa.ll find immediatcaud permanent relief from ’ the use of Ibis incomparable renovator. To f those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailing safe-guard 1 against that terrible malady. There are many i perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu tion that they think themselves beyond thcreach of medicine. Let not even those despair. The S Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re lercnce to the causes, and will not only remove the disorder itself, but rebuild the broken con stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush ’ of blood to tho head, melancholy, mental debil ity, hyEteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofself-dc- S'ruction, fear of insanity,hypochondriasis, dys ( pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous , ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to se t males, decay of the propagating functions, hys tcria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, impotency, constipation, etc., from whatever cau.-e arising, it is, if there is any reli ance to be placed on hitman testimony ,absolutc , ly infill lißic.
