Wal- 1 kep.’s army. _ The Concert. The great violinist, Ole Bi 11, with his corps of I accomplished artists, drew a full and fashionable i house last night. Every one present seemed 1 charmed, and will, doubtless, cherish the most agreeable recollections of the entertainment. Hon. Hubert MeMillen. This gentleman, Senator front Habersham, has been spending a few days in our city, and has been welcomed bv many of his old friends, who remein ber him as a former resident. He is also remem-. ! bered very favorably for the talents he displayed a : few years ago in bis canvass as a candidate for Congress from this District. Heath of Rev. Hr. Preston. The Savannah papers of yesterday announce the deatli of Rev. Willard Preston, I>. I)., pastor of th» Independent Presbyterian church. lie died very suddenly on Saturday evening last from a disease of the heart. He was a gentleman highly esteemed for his piety and learning, and had officiated in Savannah since 1831. Mechanic Fire Engine Company. This efficient arm of our Fire Department, left the city yesterday morning, to enjoy the hospitali ties of the Phoenix Fire Engine Company of Charles ton. They were escorted to the depot, by the Pio neer Hook and Ladder Company, Phoenix No. 1, Augusta No. 5, and the First Division Independent. The music of the Brass Rand enlivened the pro ceedings, and six hearty cheers were given by the escorting companies, when the cars bore off their friends of the Mechanic. While they have gone to receive the pleasant courtesies of their Charleston friends, ts occasion should require, they will be found as prompt and useful Firemen as they will be agreeable and wor thy guests: Dr. Win.

The Charleston Courier, of the 28th inst, savs:— The elegantly decorated hall of the Phoenix Fire Engine Company, on Cumberland-street, was visit ed by many admiring and carious spectators on Saturday, and the general expression and consent of opinion was highly complimentary as regards the effort and spirit displaced bv that gallant corps. The members have made it a labor of love to put m .tiers and things all around and about their hull in applepie order, to greet and welcome theirfriend ly guests and visitors from Augusta. We have al ready given a programme of this new instance of the gratifying accord and emulative sympathy that exist between the volunteer associations of the States (in the Savannah, and we need now only re peat a few particulars. The Mechanic Fire Engine Company, of Augusta, are expected iu good strength, with their “water battery,” and equip ments for action, and a deputation of the Clinch Fire Engine Company " ill also testify to the good feeling of the Augusta firemen. These guests will be received by the Phoenix Fire Engine Company, escorted by the Eagle and Washington Compant ■■ of our city, and will be escorted to the Phcenix Hal!, where the Mechanic Engine will he put into quar ters, and then to the Charleston Hotel, where the visitors will be installed. The route of procession will be front the South Carolina Depot down King street to Market-street, thence into Meeting and Cumberland-street, to the Plnenix Hall, and thence by countermarching to the Charleston Hotel. The exercises will occur to-morrow, which, as our city readers well know, will be the Eighteenth Anniversary of our Fire Organization, as dated from the “great tire" of H3B. It is an Anniversa ry Observance which, we trust, will long be cele brated with pi-iy and not with work by our Firemen and by sueli guests and friends from other cities as may be enabled from year to year to respond to the so tal appeals of our several companies. Adams’ Express Company. We omitted to call attention, a few days ago, to the arrangements made by this popular Express line, over the Memphis and Charleston railroad, to Tuscuinbia, Ala., to receive and dispatch freight, packages, Ac., by their special messengers in the passenger train over this road. This Express line is not only a great convenicu -e to the business and travelling public, but it must be of considerable advantage to the railroad lines over which it transacts its business. Packages are transmitted with as much celeriti and safety and delivered as promptly as letters and packages by the mail. The attention given to the personal baggage of the travelling public, who entrust it to the care of the Express Companv, saves innumerable vexations, and should be gen erally known. The last Chattanooga Advertiser thus refers to Adams’ Express Company: “ From time to time we have been led to see the efficiency and dispatch with which Adams A Co. are conducting their express business in the South. Me have had occasion to test their ability as ex press men, collectors and messengers and in no res pect have found them wanting. Merchants and busi ness men who have collections to m ike in distant sections, purchases through agents in other cities, merchandise and wares hurried with safety to their Counties, anything or everything, let them re member that by consulting Adams A Co.’s, and expressing their desires, with the marvel and uku "K ol Aladdin’s Lamp, all will be performed a I . h a correctness and satisfaction astonishing. If people wonder lot them make the trial and be con vin:eu. The Lane and liouglas Affair. We re eived yesterday the Washington I nion containing the correspondence in relation to the apprehended duel between Col. James 11. Lank ~f Kansas, and Hon. S. A. Douglas, of Illinois. Col. Lane’s letter to Mr. Douglass, respectfully asks for such an explanation as will remove all imputation upou the integrity of his action or motives, in connection with the memorial of the people of Kansas for admission into the Union as a State. Mr. Douglas refused to answer Col. Lane’s let ■er d r aulv, but addressed his reply to the Hon. j . ' A ats "- s - th e bearer of Col. Lane’s letter. | Mr. D. says the letter of Col. Lane is so equivocal i *n tet .us, and portions of it so irreconcilable with ' other porn , ns that it is impossible to determine, w,th any certainty, whether it is intended as I hosule message or a friendly note The renly i then goes into an examination of the “action” <f Col. Lake, in garbling and perverting the memo- ! rial in question, and refers to its final rejection bv the Senate by a vote of thiny to eleven, and con cludes thus: “There are no facts, within mv knowledge, which can remove all imputation upon the int grity of his action or motives in eonnec ’on with that memorial.” Ve will endeavor to publish the correspondence early day. Hon. A. H. Stephens was in our city yes terday, and leaves this morning for Washington I city. »%f It is the generally expressed opinion that there will be a fair fruit crop in this section. Jj**” The vexed question in the Supreme Court of New Y ork, instituted for the purpose of vitia ting the election of Comptroller, has resulted in favor of the present incumbent of that office. The suit was commenced by John T. Giles, the defeat- ! ed candidate of the Know Nothing party, against Azariah C. Flagg, who was nominated and elect ed on the Democratic and mercantile tickets. Lady Franklin and Ur. Kane. It is stated that this lady has written a letter to a friend in New York, in which she expresses a desire that I)r. K axe should visit England, and take command of another vessel, to go in search of some of the survivers of the ill-fated Arctic expedi tion of her husband. Mrs. Franklin proposes to fit out a propeller, at her own expense, and give the command to Dr. Kane. Hite thinks some survivor of Franklin's j party may be found among the Esquimaux, from whom might be obtained the particulars of her husband’s fate. Mrs. Franklin s perseverance to find out the fate of her husband dose; ves, as it has received, the praise of the world. Was there ever I a more devoted woman ? After so many years of absence, still unwilling to give up her dearest com j panion. She has the sympathy of everybody. Alexander Vattkmare, of Paris, has forwarded for the New Y'ork State Agricultural Museum, six hundred bags of grain and seeds, procured from the contributions of the European nations, repre ; sented at the World’s Fair in 1855. He is also 1 preparing a collection from France and her coloni- : al possessions, which is said to comprise the most j complete agricultural and horticultural collection i j that lias ever crossed the Atlantic. The New 1 ork Earning Post says that Sir. Bcch j ANA.x is looking remarkably well, and seems real i Iv happy to see home and friends again. He is, I perhaps, stouter than when he left us, nearly I three years, and there is a ruddy hue of health | upon his cheeks, and a contented look front his I eyes, which indicate that he is physically and | mentally at ease.

The Keception of Mr. Hachanan-Visit to the Astor Library. According to arrangements, the committee ap pointed to receive Mr. Buchanan, of both Boards, met at the Everett House, ut half-past ten o’clock, to escort Mr Buchanan to the City Hall. Accord ingly at eleven o’clock, an open barouche, drawn by four splendid grey horses, and six new car riages, arrived at the hotel, to receive the party, and convey them to the Hall. At a few minutes past eleven he was conducted to his carriage bv Alderman Ely and Councilman Smith, when they all started for the Astor Library. Here an hour was spent in viewing the building, Ac., when they again returned to thair carriages, and proceeded to the Citv Hall, where over two thousand were waiting for the time to come when they could be admitted to see him. On the arrival of the par ties, Mr. Buchanan was immediately conducted to the Governor’s room, where he was received bv 0 his Honor the Mayor, and a large number of his friends. After having rested himself for a few 11 moments, his Honor Mayor Wood addressed Idm t in words of welcome and compliment, and Mr. s Buchanan replied as follows : MR. BUCHAN AX’S REPLT. Mr. Mayor:—l accept these resolutions with ! deep gratitude. L consider this one of the proud- I esi moments of mv life, and it shall always be re membered. In the United States a public man bus many difficulties to contend with, but such a • scene as this, after a long period of public services, ' and from such a population, is reward enough foi lin' whole. In foreign lands 1 have ever felt proud ■ of New Vork ; it is universally known throughout the world. The character of its citizens, the ener • gv and enterprise of its merchants, the benevolence displayed in its Public Institutions, all combine to 1 give it a character in every country and in every ' place on the globe, civilized and savage. M v heart ' swelled with honest pride, yesterday, its I ascended • your beautiful Bay, and I exulted in the opportuni • tv afforded me of presenting its beauties, and thou • sand vessels, to strangers on board the noble Ara go. 1 reflected upon what has given New York its proud pre-eminence the blessed Union of these 1 States. Without that union, what would become -of its greatness? These were my thoughts, and such reflections naturally forced themselves upon - my mind at such a time ; but lam one of those who never apprehended danger to the Union. Ap -4 plattse. | Never, iu its darkest days. I never fcar | ed for its integrity, or that the people would prove 1 untrue to themselves and to their country, bv sev ering the bonds which held them together in one common nationality. [Applause.] All mankind 1 are interested in the success of our glorious experi -1 nient. It is the hope of the world ; and while every portion of the country is dependent for its prosper ity upon the preservation of the Constitution, of all the spots on earth, the city of New York is most interested iu its continuance. [Cheers.] That the , people of New York feel this truth in their hearts I know full well, and 1 know also the energy and the ’ enterprise with which they always act in a noble J k and righteous cause. , In regard to my bumble self, I thank vou, Mr. Mayor, most cordially, for the appreciation which you entertain for me and my humble services, but that too high appreciation demands my deeper ' gratitude. However, I think it is the part of prit t deuce for me not to sav anything in addition to I what you have been pleased to say, “to let well enough alone,” and therefore 1 "shall conclude these remarks by expressing my deep gratitude to the chairman and the committee who have been 1 appointed to be my companions. We meet us . strangers—we shall part as friends. As for your self. Mr. Mayor, you are an ancient friend of mine. ’ Our friendship is of “auld lung syne.” Since our ■ first acquaintance, it has suffered no diminution - or check, and I can say, as you have been a friend to me, lam no less a sincere friend of yours, and as we are both growing—l beg your pardon— [laughter —I mean as I am growing old, the con- I »inuance of your ftiendship is nothing more than I expected. Laugh and applause.] f,don’t know therefore that I shall thank you very much, for, if I had not met this cordial reception, 1 should have been greatly disappointed. I now desire, said Mr. Buchanan, to salute the many friends bv whom I am surrounded, and whom you will do me the honor to introduce. The crowd was then admitted, one by one, who passed through, and after shaking hands with Mr. Buchanan was passed out. through the side door. At two o’clock he returned, in companv with the I Councilmen, to his quarters, and at six o’clock will dine with Mayor Wood, at his resid nee. Reception, of Mr. Bnchanati at Phila delphia. Philadelphia, April 25.— Mr. Buchanan was j met at Trenton this morning on his wav to this city bv a committee of his friends, and on arriving at Walnut street wharf he was greeted by a salute and enthusiastic cheers of the large crowd gathered there. He was formally welcomed to the ! city by a committee of citizens" headed bv Hun. j | Josinh Randall, after which he was conducted to ; the Merchants’ Exchange, the interior of which 1 was decorated with flags in honor of his presence | ”!‘ r . e h |,was welcomed in an address by 8. Morris j W am, Esq., to which Mr. Buchanan responded in [ his happiest style, dieting the applause of his hear ers After his reception at the Exchange, he was conducted to the Merchants’ llo‘el, which was be sieged by troops of his triea s ami admirer. Mr Buchanan in responding to the addres’s said | he felt as if his foot was again on his native heath . and was rejoiced to find that in the opinion of bis ! fellow citizens he had not discredited his country nor her principles. He had ever acted as lie felt »s an American. He had often been asked if there was danger of war between England and the United States, and replied no, because he felt that the British people would never consent to involve themselves iu a conflict regarding a question on which they knew we had the right side. He felt no present apprehension, but if an insult was of fered, we have millions of energetic free people to ■ maintain our cause. He was pleased to sav that ! during his embassy he had ever received manlv ‘ and courteous treatment, with much tolerance with regard to expressions of opinion. ein/Lno UCllan ?,“ . w 4f lneet friends and the TOK ' generally m Independence Square to-ruor- , 1 BY TELEGRAPH.

St. Louis, April 25.—A dispatch from Fort Lea venworth states that the Sheriff of Douglass coun ty, whilst arresting the participators in the late difficulties in Kansas, was resisted by three hun dred men, and shot in the back. Gov. Shannon had called out the military. New Orleans, April 25. —The sales of cotton to-day comprised 500 bales, and factors ask an ad vance. The increase in receipts at this port is ‘>02,000 bales. The stock of cotton on hand amounts to 220,000 bales. A Gold-and-fame-puoop Althor. —The author of a tragedy, called the Gladiator of Ravena, which has excited much enthusiasm in Germany from its first appearance, some eighteeu months since, still remains unknown. This is the more extraordinary, as the tragedy, which gains steadily on public favor, has already laid up on the author’s per-centage, 10,000 thalers (over ifd.OOO), which sum still remains to his credit in the treasuries of the theatres. Neither the success of his piece uor his pecuniary gain, have however, induced him to break liis incognita. A unique fact in the annals of theatrical literature. Silk op Know Nothingism. —The Louisville Courier, edited by YY'alter N.'Haldkman, Esq., for i nierly a Whig, but more recently a Know Nothing, j has repudiated the Know Nothing party. Hear | what the editor says on the subject: The next election will seal the doom of Know Nothingism in Kentucky. Thousands of Whig! who voted the Know Nothing ticket last August, are now utterly disgusted with the party, and will work with a will at the next election to secure its defeat. Within the last live months such changes have been going on as to leave not the slightest doubt as to what will be the position of our noble State in the next contest. The Austin tstate Gazette, of the 12th iust., has the distressing intelligence of the untimely death of Capt. Callahan, the brave and efficient fron tiersman. The Gazette says: We have just heard of a most painful tragedy at Pittsburg, on Mat tin’s Fork of the Blanco. Tin particulars, as they come to us, are that Capt. Cal lahan, in company with Clement Hinds and John son, went to the bouse of Win. Blasengarne for the purpose of seeing him in regard to certain statements lie had made about Capt. Callahan. Blasengarne became apprised of their coming, and probably under the impression of hostile inten tions towards him, armed himself with a rifle. When they made their appearance near his house he came out, and what words, if any, transpired between the parties, we have not learned . but tin result is reported to have been that Blasengarne killed both Capt. Callahan and Johnson, ;. d se verely wounded Clement Hinds. All th<> -- ties lived in the Blanco Valley. Blaseng.uru- and Capt. Callahan lived on the same side of the river, and were neighbors. Hinds lived on the opposite side of the river, in sight, and Johnson about a mile higher up. Blasengarne is an old man, probably about sixty years of age. Capt. Callahan, it will be recollected, not long ago headed a party in pursuit of the Indians, and crossed over into Mexico at Piedras Negras. He overtook the Indians, and fought a battle with them before returning to Texas. Tribute of Respect. Thompson, Geo., April 24th, 1856. Death has entered the- portals of our Institute, which has been heretofore, through the infinite mercy of an all wise Providence, free from disease ami sickness, and deprived us of a talented and highly esteemed fellow-student. James J. A. M. Smith, whose amiable disposition and inoffensive manners, enlisted universal friend ship and admiration, is no muf' ! This morning he bid adieu to nil on earth, to seek a happier home in Heaven. To record his death is sad, but to enu merate his virtues is pleasant. To commemorate his deeds is delightful, for they are the exemplifi cation of moral worth. In every grade or position which he occupied, he retained the same ineffable sweetness of character, peculiar alone to himself. Comparatively young, he possessed the carriage of maturer years. Bland, courteous and urbane, he was unique in his intercourse with all, thereby pre senting a tit model for imitation. Blended v. itli these excellencies, as was indicated upon his death-bed, was a Christian-like spirit. During his long and protracted illness, not a imir mer escaped his lips. Perfectly resigned, bespoke consoling words to sorrowing friends around—told his father that lie would soon be iu Heaven with his mother, who had gone before, lie expressed an unwavering faith in the salvation of his soul, and a blessed resurrection. Notwithstanding such abundant evidence, it is natural for us to moan the lo>s of one so dearly be loved. “ Oh! what a shadow o’er the heart is Bung, When peals the requim of the loved and young.” Knowing the vacuum caused by his premature death, be it hereby Resolved, That we deeply bewail the daath of James J. A. M. Smith, a resident of Jefferson coun ty, and a student, in the “ Treenway Instititute;” that in him was combined every excellent quality, and rare accomplishment, By" his early demise we meet with an irreparable loss. Resolved, That we tender to the friends and re latives of the deceased, and more especially to his bereaved parents, our sincere sympathies for the calamity which basso unexpectedly befallen then).

It was invented by a pliyisiciau of great experience ! in Virginia, who, after having used it for several years in his own practice, and found its success so universal, was induced at last to offer it to the pub lic as a cheap hut certain and excellent medicine.

TO THE CITIZENS OF AUGUSTA. 1 WOULD call your attention tft my new pre paration, known as “BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC RE.U MEDY.” This medicine is a new medical com pound, and is tbe result of long practice, exten sive observation, and close study of all diseases having their origin in a disordered state of stom ach, and adapted to every stage of these diseases, from their incipient symptom to those in which they have assumed a Chronic form; and although but yet in its infancy, has gained a notoriety and repu tation very seldom attained by any “ patent” pre paration. This Remedy is no quack nostrum, got up to gull the people, and fleece them out of their money, but a medicine, which, together with the treatment prescribed to accompany the taking of the medicine, has the sanction of years of success ful application in private practice, and will not fail to cure the most stubborn case of Dyspepsia, no matter of how long st inding, or how severe it may be, providing the directions are closely followed out. It was not suddenly hit upon , nor dreamed of, but is the accretion of facts and experiments collected in the daily rounds of duty as a practis ing Physician, and is given to the public in a popu lar form, in the hope, as in the belief, that it will not fail in giving relief to the sufferer from Dys pepsia, and all other diseases having their origin in the stomach, in any instance when the directions are properly attended to. It lias received the high est encomiums from the first physicians throughout the North and South—it has been tried, recom mended and certified to by some of the most emi nent jurists and statesmen in tiie country, all of which shall appear in due time. Physicians of large practice are now using it and relying upon it alone in these diseases in their practice, and re commend it to their friends as worthy their best confidence. It is entirely dissimilar to any and every prepar tion of the kind now before the people. The ori ginator, entertaining views and opinions somewhat at variance with the prescribed notions among medical men generally, as regards the nature of these diseases, has in this preparation brought to gether medical agents of known utility and worth, in the form of a new combination, making a com pound altogether and entirely new, and one that will not fail in effecting a cure, if direction* are followed and persevered in. The undersigned is well aware that the same encouragement has been given, and the same promises made, over and over again, bv manufacturers of patent medicines, -as regards their different preparations, and as vouch er for the curative qualities of this preparation, and for the purpose also of giving additional weight to whatever he may say us regards this new preparation, tie would beg to refer to the fact, that he is the originator, manufacturer and proprietor of the well known “.Jacob’s Cordial,” the cura tive properties of which in Cholera, Dysentery and Diarrhea, are now being proclaimed by thousands in every section of the country, and as being all that he ever said of it. The undersigned does not profess to be a philan thropist, or that he is uuinfluenced by considera tions of pecuniary profit m placing the Remedy he f»re the people, but he do, . know that while hernav be realizing a pecuniary protit, fellow-sufferers will realize that which is of more worth to them than the wealth of India. Dyspepsia, like Gout, may he said to he a fash ionable disease; it more readily than am other, in various of its forms, and to a greater extent, find its victims in the wealthy and aristocratic circles, especially in large cities, audits insidious work ings are often the real, though undiscovered cause ot the sallow cheek, the dull, heavy eves, and gen eral inertia indisposition to either mental or phy sical effort, which are erroneously attributed to other causes. Scenes of luxurious ease are not, however, alone the haunts of this destroyer of the health and en joyment of myriads of mankind. Other conditions of life there are in which it revels over faded and emaciated forms, and dispirited and despairing hearts. The sedentary labors of the counting house, and the study, not less than the intense ex citement and irregularities of busier occupations of mercantile life, are promotive of it; each daily adding to the number of its subjects. But our (that is the physician and his patients ' object is not, having once discovered the disease, so much t° trace it buck to its source, as to remove it front where we find it, and to establish a healthful and vigorous action'of the various organs, by use of the proper agencies, and to restore to their'natiira! functions these organs which had been perverted by disease. For all . ' . NERVOUS SUFFERERS, n.is preparation, with its uccompanyingdiroctions for treatment, are peculiarly applicable; and if the former is taken andthehitter closely complied with it will not fail of curing. Also, to those suffering from DISEASE OF THE LI \ln IC, it is particularly recommended, and most admirably adapted. In WEAK AND DEBIUTA -1 ED S\ SI E.MS, it will be found as possessing tonic properties to a pre-eminent degree, and very ad mirably adapted to a large portion of the female sex, whose debilitated and worn out constitutions require an artificial restorer. i lu using this Remedy, its beneficial effects may he looked for at once. It will begin torelieve.and the patient will know that recovery has commenc ed «ithin forty-eight or seventy-two hours, or, at farthest, by the time In- has taken the contents of one package. To those trying the effect of this Remedy, I would propoed a test that will demon strate to the patient that lie is being beuefitted. It it is used in a ease of Dyspepsia, where pain I or other distressing feelings' attend the taking of j food upon the stomach, I suggest that the patient, j after using the Remedy for three or four dais, and , following closely the other directions, partake of some articles of food which he had known pre vtously to disagree with him, and lie will discover that it no longer produces the disagreeable effect. Sufferers from Dyspepsia, nervous sufferers, inva lids from disease of the Liver, and from broken, worn out and debilitated constitutions, try one package; follow out closely all the accompanying ! directions, and prove the truth or falsiti of what i I have said of the Remedy. I would, however, ; remark, that unless you determine to take the modi | cine and follow out till directions as given, I pre- I fee you would let it alone entirely, and not bur it ; | preferring much rather to go without vour money than have you take it without deriving benefit.
