In consequence of the inclemency of the wea ther last evening, the delivery of the Lecture on the “Aute-Colonial History of the South,” by Wm. Gilmore Simms, Esq., was postponed until this evening. If the weather should prove fa vorable, we have no doubt a large and appre ciative audience will be present. Firemen’s Ball. The sixth annual Hall of the Augusta Indepen dent Fire Company, Second Division, took place last evening, at the Augusta Hotel. It was an in clement night, but balls come so seldom that the ladies and gentlemen were not disposed to allow the occasion to pass without enjoying it. The mu sic and duncing were kept up to a late hour—-the supper was fine—good humor prevailed, and at a later hour than we indite these lines, the company were enjoying themselves. Rev. John A. McClung. We learn that the Rev. John- A. McCluno, Pastor elect of the First Presbyterian Church of this city, has resigned his pastoral charge, in consequence of continued ill-health. He resides in Indianapolis, Indiana, and has never yet regularly entered upon his duties as pastor, although he has temporarily officiated at the sacred desk in this citv. The Reverend gentleman is regarded as a learned and eloquent divine, and much regret is expressed at the cause which has deprived the Church of the teachings of so able and exemplary a gentleman. ’-jf Mr. Thomas J. Capkhart, a native of Bertie county, X. C., while in the discharge of his duties as overseer, at the plantation of Mr. John G. Wil liams, near Mount Meigs, Ala., was killed by a negro man known by the name of Harry Granze. •fzr a convention to send delegates from Cali fornia to the Cincinnati Democratic convention met at Sacramento on the sth March. The citizens of Dahlonega have adopted very stringent measures to prevent the spread of small pox in Lumpkiu county. The disease continues to prevail in Hall county. The Charleston papers of yesterday pub lish a despatch from Mobile, which states the re ceipts of cotton for the last week in Mobile at eighty-five thousand bales. It should have been eight thousand five hundred bales. The mistake must have occurred either in the telegraph office in Columbia or Charleston. Singular Scene in an English Church. —The new church at Ambleside, England, has recently been warmed by means of flues leading from a coke fire. Owing to some imperfection in the flues, a deleterious gas issued into the body of the churel. during the morning service on a recent Sabbath. Y'oung children being nearest the floor, were first affected, and about twenty of them followed one another out before the adults took the alarm. At about the middle of the sermon the congregation rose in a body and went out, to the apparent as tonishment of the preacher, who, in his elevated pulpit, was unaware of the mischief. He was left entirely alone in the church; and it is the opinion of the medical men that it' the congregation had staid fifteen minutes longer, no one would have been able to help himself or bis neighbor, and many must have perished. Death or the Rigmt Rev. Bishop Brown. — This eminent prelate, Roman Catholic Bishop of Liverpool, recently expired at his residence in that city. He was consecrated Bishop of Liverpool in 1840. He received his education at St. Cuthbert's College, near Derham, where he was a private pupil of the celebrated historian, Dr. Lingabp. He was remarkable, during his college career, as a writer of sweet and classical Latin ; and he af terwards became Prelect, and then Vice-President of the College and Professor of Theology. Small Pox.—The Knoxville (Tenn.i iVhig an nounces that ibis disease is on the increase in Chattanooga, and the citizens are leaving in every direction. Heavt Sales of Iron.—The Columbia (Pa. ; Spy states that during the past week upwards of three thousand tons of iron were sold by the man ufacturers of that town to Pittsburg houses. Tin prices were $-24 and $26 per ton. The prospect of the trade are said to be improving materially. "An Orthographical Emeu-te.—Alluding to the new Canard steamer Emeu, a cotemporary says that the word should be spelled Emu. This, how ever, is not according to Webster, who gives the word correctly' written Emeu, or Emew, (preferring the former) —“a large bird of New Holland, re sembling the cassoway, and differing from the os trich, having feet three-toed.” A Suggestive Fact.—lt is estimated that every one of the soldiers who besieged Sebastopol has cost, on an average, far more to France and Eng land than a Gospel missionary would have cost, acci rding to the usual remuneration, in every part of the globe. The treasurer of a building association in Phil adelphia has been held to bail on the charge of converting to his own use $19,000 belonging to the association. Judge Hetdenfei.t, of the Supreme Court of California, left San Francisco, 011 the sth inst., fora visit of six months to the Atlantic States and Eu rope. The coinage of the United States Branch Mint of San Francisco, for the months of January and February, of the present year, was $1,01",420 30, an increase of $039,025 63 over the coinage during the corresponding monlhs of last year; 321,- 556 92-100 ounces of gold, and 53,425 60-100 ounces of silver were deposited for coinage during the same period. The Annual Conference of the Methodist Epis copal Church South, in California, which met in San Francisco, adjourned on the 27th Februarv last, after a session of one week.

Forbes, run by the Americans, has been elected Mayor of Vicksburg. Miss Sue Alexander died last Wednesday, at Pickens C. H., from injuries received by jumping from a carriage which the horses hud run away with. Important Suit Decided.—The Fayetteville (X. C.) Observer reports the conclusion of an interest ing trial in that county : ** It was an action tor libel and conspiracy, in which the plaintiff, Enoch Cobb, a Baptist preach er, claimed $75,000 damages from ninety-six of the most respectable citizens of Wayne, Duplin and Lenoir counties, for an alleged combination to drive j Cobb out of Duplin—they alleging as a reason that he had incited slaves to house-burning, causing very serious and alarming destruction of property . After some deliberation the jury returned a verdict against ten of the defendants for $lO0 —that is, $lO each. There was no evidence to convict the de fendants on the count for conspiracy.” A man named Shaffer, a gin maker by trade, was seriously stabbed by another named Sygouvre, at the corner of Fatin' and William streets, at a late hour last night. The wound is in the right side, just above the hip, and is considered danger ous.—Savannah Republican, April 2. 7b the Editor of the Constitutionalist : lion. A. 11. Stephens. The most inattentive observer of the political ! events of the country must conclude that we are on the verge of a dissolution. It will require all the patriotism of the country to prevent this great j calamity. The next Presidential nomination will j have much to do with the fate of this country po litically. If we can bring forward the proper per sons as our candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, it may be a blessing to our insti tutions. It is conceded, I believe, that the candi date for the Vice Presidency will be given to the South. There is no man whose nomination would, in nty judgment, tend more to calm the waters of strife than that of Alex ander H. Stephens. If he be placed on the ticket with Buchanan, it may be the means of preserving and perpetuating the po litical institutions of the country. Harris. To the Elitor of the Constitutionalist : The proposition, “Xo Subscription shall be made in any case without the previous concurrence of a majority of the legal voters in said city,” taken by itself is plain enough, but the words “as hereinaf ter designated" appended to it, fixes its meaning very clearly. It was evidently th e design of the Legislature to make the proposition so plain and intelligible that there could not be any misunderstanding or mis construction; therefore in the first place they des ignated that the rotes and returns were to be taken and made as in the election of Mayor and mem bers of Council. Then they designated that the time of voting should be fixed by Council. Then they designated that three days notice should be given. And finally they designated that a majority of votes should authorize the Council to make the subscription. In all this there is no incongruity or mystifica tion, as there might have been under a simple un explained statement of the proposition on its being made a law. In conformity to the law, the question of concur rence was submitted to the whole of the one thou sand and ninety voters of the city, and their response was to be and was made last Saturday. On that occasion the pollls were opened and seven hun dred and eighty-nine of the voters voluntarily ox otherwise, came forward, and, by voting, became the legal voters first mentioned. Three hundred and one did not vote, and as there was no law which prevented them from doing so, there could uot be any question as to the legal or illegal posi tion assumed by them. Os the seven hundred and eighty-nine, unquestionably legal voters, four hundred and twelve voted for the subscription, and they were a majority of the legal voters con templated in the proposition, and their votes were a majority of the votes. It cannot be contended that a “majority of the legal voters” is synonymous with “majority of votes,” not only because the law would not have been made more imperative or intelligible by the mere repetition of words meaning the same thing, but because the latter was necessary to designate the true meaning of the former. Suppose the whole one thousand and ninety votes had been polled, and of them four hundred and twelve were for the subscription, three hundred and seventy seven for no subscription and three hundred and one for subscription with conditions, or blank, then, according to the term “majority of votes" there could be no doubt as to the concurrence of a majority of the legal voters, and although four hundred and twelve would not have been a majori ty of the whole, it is a r/utjority of the votes as re quired by the Legislature. Pilqarlic. To the Editor of the Constitutionalist: If it had been the intention of the Legislature (which by the way was remarkable for reconsider ing its acts,) to make the authority of the City Council to subscribe for certain railroad stocks, dependant upon the concurrence of a majority, two thirds or three fourths, or the unanimous vote of all the voters of the City of Augusta, there w ould not have been any difficulty whatever in so ex pressing it. It would have been as easy to sav, “ Xo subscription shall be made in any case with out the previous concurrence of all the voters in said city,” as “ Xo subscription shall be made in any case without the previous concurrence of a majority of the legal voters of said city.” Both ex pressions appear to me to be good and plain Eng lish, but I consider their meaning entirely differ ent, marked and unmistakable. If the first had been used, there could not have been any reasonable doubt as to the necessity of having five hundred and forty-six votes in favor of the subscription to authorize the action of Council. The second, however, is the expression used in the act, and i! appears to me equally clear that any number of votes, being a majority of the votes polled, is its true meaning. The definition of the word voter, is one who has a right to vote, and the word legal, preceding it, could have been dispensed with, if it had not been intended to indicate the action of the votes. The right of voting is secured hv one thousand and ninety of our citizens, under the registry law's, and so long as they exercise that right, they are legal I voters : but if they refuse to exercise that right, as there is no law requiring them to do or not to do so, i they are simply nothing more or less than voters. j In the last, and in all future city elections, the re | gistry law was and will be effectual in excluding I illegal voters; and, therefore, at the polls, without ! which there can be no election, there cannot be i any other than legal votes; that is to say. votes actually entered thereon by the managers in con formity to law, under which the voter presents himself for the exercise of his right to vote. The three hundred and one voters who, under “higher law,” or some other rule of action than the I law s of the land, refused to vote on Saturday, can ! have no claim whatever to be legal voters, and for the purposes of that election were defunct, and might as well have been dead and buried. Pilgarlic. Alexandrian Library. To the Editor of the Constitutionalist: “ The philosopher Philoponos requested permis sion of the conqueror to preserve the royal library, a treasure in Ids opinion inestimable, but con temptible in that of the barbarians. The well known answer of Omar was inspired by the igno rance of a devotee: ‘lf,’ savs lie, ‘these writings of the Greeks agree with the book of God, they are useless, and need not be preserved; if they disagree, they are pernicious, and ought to be de stroyed.’ The sentence was executed w'itli blind obedience; the volumes of parchment or paper were distributed to the four thousand baths of the city, and such was their incredible multitude, that ■ ix months were barely sufficient for the consump tion of the precious fuel.” The above is furnished as an illustration of the style of argument used by a correspondent of the Chronicle if; Sentinel, on Tuesday last. Ci tiLEy Q. Government of the Semiuoles. The Florida Sews gives the following information regarding the government of the Seminole Indians: Like that of most of the Indian tribes, the gov ernment of the Semiuoles is a limited monarchy, being invested in a principal Chief or King, who is controlled by a council of the Chiefs and princi pal men of the nation. The nominal ruler now' is llu-lat-to Miko, or the Blue King, familiarly known as Billy Bowlegs, but lus authority is very much restricted, the actual head of the nation being Ar puika, or Sam Jones, who, though one hundred and three years old, and blind, still exercises a might v voice in the Council, and one that, report savs, is invariably opposed to Bowlegs. Billy, it is said, is now, and has been for a long time past, in favor of emigration, but Sam Jones is determined to die in Florida, and vows eternal hostility to the whites; and it is supposed, upon authority, that the late at tack upon the United States troops was at his iu siigation. Some one writing to the Xew \ ork Tribune, from which the foregoing facts were directed, added the following: “Billy Bowlegs, like many of his more civilized brethren, is entirely uuuer the control of petticoat government. He has a sister noted for her sagaci ty, eloquence, and unyielding hostility to all at tempts at emigration, and who is in many respects a most remarkable woman. The fast friend and ally of Sam Jones, she rules the weak and vascil latlng King of the tribe with an iron hand. We are assured that had it not been for her, the Indi ans would long since have consented to leave the country. Os course, she has no voice at the coun cil lire; but she has other means of influencing her followers, and, like some other women, she leaves no means untried to accomplish her favorite ends.” ’.gf The Savannah Adorning Alice of yesterday •ays: Public Sales. —The amount of property offered for sale at the Court House yesterday was less than usual, and it was disposed of at very mod erate prices. Several city lots were sold at prices far below what coulu have been obtained same three months since. N egroes sold low, there being apparently but little disposition among bid ders to purchase. At a meeting of the Chatham Mutual Loan As sociation. held last evening, five shares of stock were sold at SSB per share, $57 paid in. Five do, a: ss*-j per share, $57 paid in. Also, SI,<XH» were sold at 20% per cent., SI,OOO at S2O, and SI,OOO at 21 per cent. The negro who lately murdered Mr. Harwood, of Charles City, Y irgiuia, has been sentenced to be hung. BY TELEGRAPH.

Worms J Worms ! —A great many learn ed treatises have been written, explaining the origin of, and classifying the worms generated in the human system. Scarcely any topic of medical science has elicited more acute observation and profound research; and yet physicians are verv much divided in opinion on the subject. It must be admitted, however, that, after all, a mode of ex pelling these worms, and purifying the body from their presence, is of more value than the wisest disquisitions as to the origin. The expelling agent has at length been found— Dr. AT Lane's Vermi fuge, prepared by Fleming Bros., is the much sought after specific, and has already superseded all worm medicines, its efficacy being universally acknowledged by medical practitioners. Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR. M’LANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manu ufactured by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa. All other Vermifuges, in comparison, are worth less.

THUS article will compare favora bly with any of like character in the known world. 1 find that by putting it in the form Iggffly of a Soap it gives it a decided ad van tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment, or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir tues from being impaired by age or climate, and renders it very convenient for use. Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara tion injurious to the patient. This article, there fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles, Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Sab Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore Eves, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac., extract scurf and dandruff from the head, thereby preventing premature baldness. It is also one of the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will cure the Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a superior dentrifice to the teeth. FoFshaving soap, it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and curing such sores as may be on the face. In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and particular old sorts, this soap has proved a balm indeed, by its wonderful healing powers. 1 can procure certificates innumerable were it necessary, but believing that a single cake is only requisite to prove its efficacy as above stated, and wishing to avoid everything like hiimbuggerv, ! leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not doubting they will then declare this to be the tie plus ultra of the age in the healing art. Prepared bv Pemble, Augusta, Ga., and sold by ‘ I). B. PLUMB A CO., Druggists. Price 25 cents. d&cffmins ap2 H. G. FARRELL'S “ CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT SS well known to possess the most wonderfully . healing, penetrating and stimulating properties, and by its promptness in effecting cures, which previously had resisted all other medicines, ad ministered by the most scientific physicians, has placed it far beyond any similar remedy ever in troduced to the people of the United States. It stimulates the absorbents to increased action, and thus enables nature to throw off disease— it pent trates to the hones, adding strength and activity to the muscles it is powerfully anodyne and thereby aliaps ner cents irritation, producing a delightfully phasing sensation through the whole frame. Owing to its remarkable anticeptic properties, it purities and neutralizes that poisonous, corrosive principle which renders old ulcerous sores so difficult to heal; it therefore is peculiarly adapted to their speedv cure. This Liniment from its penetrating and strengthening qualities has been found to be a spe cific for Paralysis or Palsy, Whiteswellings and diseased joints, and in fact all comohiints invol ving the muscular system. It has cured cases of Rheumatism of twenty to thirty years’ standing, and affections of the Spine wherein the entire spi nal column was so crooked and distorted, that the patient could not walk or stand without artificial support. Numerous cases of Palsy have been cured when the tiesh had withered, leaving nothing but the dried skin and bone, and the limbs totally without use or feeling. For Children -with Cretin it is of inestimable value, rubbed and bathed over tin? throat and chest. If applied freely on the chest it never fails to give relief in the severe Cough* at tending Consumption, Asthma and Colds. It heals wounds speedily—will cure Scaldheud, Mange, etc. Planters and Farmers will find it a most valuable medicine to be applied to Horses and Cattle for Sprains, Bruises, Lameness, Stiff Joints, Sweenev, Dry Shoulder, Wounds, Burns, Splint, Chafes or Galls, Hardened Knots on the flesh, etc. Lookout for Counterfeits! The public arc cautioned against another coun terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan gerous of all file counterfeits, because his having the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil effects. The genuine article is manufactured only bv 11. G. Farrell, sole inventor and proprietor, and whole sale druggist, No. 17 Main street, Peoria, Illinois, to whom all applications for Agencies must be ad dressed. Be sure you get it with the letters 11. G. be fore Farrell’s, tints—ll. G. FARRELL’S—and his signature on the wrapper, all others are counter feit. Sold by HAVILAND, RISLEY A CO., AY. H. A J .TURPIN, N. J.
