This company, after enjoying, for a few days, the hospitalities of their brother firemen in Charles ton, returned to our city yesterday afternoon. They speak iu high terms of the pleasures of their trip, and the exquisite flavor of many commodities which were served up to them “in town.” The Southern Baptist Theological Con vention. This body was again in session yesterday, at the Baptist Church. The morning and afternoon ses sions uere mostly engaged in discussions relative to the establishment of Theological Schools.

The committee of fourteen appointed yesterday, made their report to-day, which, front the reading of it, we inferred, was opposed to any hasty recom mendation of the establishment of a Southern/!'he ological College. A substitute for the report of the Committee was offered, recommending the establishment of a new Theological College; that fifty thousand dollars be raised for that purpose, and that the Committee having charge of the matter, be requested to make their report to the Educational Convention which meets in Louisville, K v. The substitute was lost, and the original report adopted. Several of the delegates participated in the de bate which resulted, among whom were Reverend Messrs. J ktkr, M vllory, Teasii ale, M axly, Stock Curtis, Dr. Phillips, and others. The ordinary resolutions of returning thanks t.> the President and Secretary, and to the citizens oi Augusta for the hospitality extended to the deb gates ; and to the Pastor and Congregation for the use of the Raptist Church for the meeting of the Convention, were severally adopted, and the body closed its labor.-, by an appropriate prayer from the presiding officer. At night, the meeting of the Foreign Mission Board, as well as the Bible Board, of the Southern Baptist Convention, were held at the Baptist Church, and after fully transacting their business, adjourned. Fire in Chattanooga, Tenn. We learn from a gentleman, who was present in Chattanooga, at the time, that a tire broke out in that city, about two o'clock, P. M., on Monday last, April 2s. It originated in one of the brick ware houses, owned bv A. H. John'sox, Esq., and used by Grenville, Semple A Co., as a smoke house. Three brick warehouses, and a large wooden live ry stable, were destroyed, while contiguous build ings were much damaged. The scene of the tire is opposite to the Western and Atlantic railroad depot. Grenville, Semple A Co.’s loss, about five hun dred thousand pounds of bacon and a large quan tity of sack salt. Hook, Brvan A Pardee's loss, about four or five thousand bushels wheat, and one hundred barrels flour. It. Hoope’s loss, about eighteen thousand pounds bacon. A. H. Johnson's loss, in improved real estate, about seven thousand dollars. Other parties may have sustained losses—the newspapers in Chattanooga will furnish the detail*. P. is. Since writing the above, we learn that the loss of bacon, bv Grenville, Semple A Co , is nothing like as great as reported above. We trust it mav prove «o. 1 he Rev. It. M. Palmer, I>.

IsS?” M e hare recently received public docu ments, speeches, Ac., from several of our delega tion in Congress. We thank them for their atten tion and kindness. Weather and Crops in Arkansas. —The Little Rock GazctU, of Saturday last, says: The rain of Wednesday night was of incalculable advantage to gardeners, farmers and planters. Seed which has been sown or planted will now come up, and the baked ground has been softened by the rain, so that the process of ploughing can go freelv on. Reotstered Letters to Great Britain.— The Washington l contains article? of agreement between the Post Office authorities of the United States and Great Britain and Ireland, bv which - registered letters" can be despatched between the two countries. The registration fee on letters to Great Britain is five cents, the same as on regis tered letters from one point to another in the Uni ted States; therefore, on a single letter to Great Britain the postage and registration fee combined will be twenty-nine cents. Pre-payment required ! The registration fee on letters from Great Britain is to be fixed by the English Post Office depart ment. Neither government is to be liable for the Joss of any letter or its contents. Mercer Universitt.— Previous to the adjourn ment of the Georgia Baptist Convention, recently j in session in Savannah, the Rev. Nathaniel Ma con Crawford, notified to that body his intention j : to resign the office of President of the above in- : ; stitution. Book-making is most actively pursued in the United Slates. Over three hundred publishers are busy supplying the mental wants of the public, and over three thousand booksellers are distribu ting the productions. Books have multiplied to j such an extent in our country that it now takes seven hundred and fifty paper mills, with two thousand engines in constant operation, to supply the printers. These mills produced two hundred and seventy million pounds of paper the past vear, which immense supply was sold for about $27,000,- A pound and a quarter of rags are required fora pound of paper, and four hundred million pounds were therefore consumed in this way last year. The cost of manufacturing a twelve months’ supply of paper for the United States, aside from labor and rags, is computed at $4,000,000. With this ceaseless production it is almost impossible to keep up with the publishers in the notices of their works. Texas. The Texas papers received at New Orleans, fur nish the following intelligence: The remains of Capts. Walker and Gillespie were to be removed to the Odd Fellows’ Cemetery, in San Antonio, on the 21st ult. The San Antonio Texan, of the 17tli ult., says : The contract for completing the first forty miles of the San Antonio and Mexican Gulf railroad, we are informed, was signed on last evening. The Texan says bv the terms of the contract the distance from Matagorda Bay to Victoria is to be in running order by the Ist of March, 1858, but there is little doubt that it will be ready for the cars by the Ist of July, 1857. The Hon. Hardy Holman died on the 15th ult., in Austin, after an illness of a few minutes. Mr. j Holman has held high positions of trust in Texas. I Capt. Callahan, who was recently killed by Blasengamk, was a native of Jackson county, Ga. The Austin .Slate Times says : He tame to Texas at an early day, and belonged to Col. Fannin’s division of the Texas army. He was taken prisoner with that officer, and was re served from the massacre of the command on ac count of his being a mechanic. After remaining a prisoner for a considerable period of time, he man aged to escape, and rejoined his countrymen. He afterwards settled in Brazoria, and resided there until 1838 or 1832, when lie removed to the settle ment called Walnut Springs, on the Guadalupe, subsequently and now known as the town of Se guin, in Guadalupe county. During his residence at this place, the Indians were very troublesome, and Capt. C. soon manifested, in pursuit of the savage, that dauntless courage, untiring energy, and indomitable perservance which have been dis played since upon so many occasions. Quiet, un obtrusive, unambitious, liis services, as a soldier aud a Ranger, were contributed, not for the sake of glory or praise or pay, but for the benefit of his country and his neighbors. The State Times publishes an account of the killing of the two Blasenga.mf.s- father and son— by a number of citizens, for the murder of Capt. Callahan, and adds: A coroner’s inquest was held on the bodies next day, the jury finding, in substance, that the Blas engames came to their death by shots from un known persons, who had violently taken them out of the custody of their guard. The Justices of the Peace, Ilarmon and Lang, then proceeded with the trial of Mrs. Blaseugamc, charged with participation in the murder of Calla ban and Johnson, and after hearing the testimony, committed her to jail to await her trial at the next term of the District Court. The San Antonio Herald gives the following ac count of the killing of Hi.asexgame and his son, who shot Capt. Callahan and Johnson : The citizens in the immediate vicinity, learning this dreadful tragedy, immediately rallied and arrested Woodson Blaseugaine/his wife and son Calvin, as the perpetrators of this horrible deed, and committed them to the charge of a guard. As the accounts spread through the surrounding country, the people became more and more exci ted against the cold-blooded murderers, until at last they determined to take the law into their own hands and cut off’ all possibility- of the guilty wretches escaping. To carry out this determina tion, a hundred or more citizens took the prison ers from the custody of the guard. They decided to shoot the father, as the speediest mode of ob taining justice, which was done. The son attempt ed to escape, and he too was shot. “Douglas University.’’— lt has already been mentioned in The Sun that Senator Douglas, of Illinois, had donated to the Baptists of Chicago u beautiful grove of ten acres in that city, valued at $5d,000, on which to erect a University, provided the corner-stone be laid during the next fall, and they- expend $25,000 per annum in its erection un til completed. The Chicago Times states that the Rev. J. C. Burroughs has returned from Washing ton with the necessary papers, embracing this lib eral donation, and adds : We t nderstand that the University is to be un der the charge of trustees or directors, the first board named by Dr. Burroughs and Judge Doug las jointly; and that those persons have already been designated. Subscriptions have also been made to an amount exceeding f lon.ooo for the erection of the building and the endowment of the institution, li is to be called the “Douglas Uni versity, ’’ and Dr. Burroughs is to be its first Pres ident. It is to be, we learn, a college, embracing all the branches of science, including law and medicine, and will compare in all things with the most celebrated universities of tlic country. At tached to it will be a theological school for the in struction of persons for the Baptist ministry. We understand that, there is no doubt that the foundation will be laid before next fall, and that the buildings will be erected with proper dispatch. The site is on the West side of Cottage Grove ave nue, opposite “Oakemvaid," the residence of Judge D< mglas. New York, April 2t».—Flour was lower at from *.">.50 aso for Ohio. Southern White Wheat was worth from $1.70 a $1.75 per bushel. Corn was firm. Freights were firmer. tfrT" Worms.—At this season of the year when worms are most formidable among children, the proprietors of M’Lane’s Vermifuge, Fleming Bros, of Pittsburgh, beg leave to call the attention of parents to its virtues for the expelling of these annoying, and often fatal enemies of children. It was invented by a phyisician of great experience in \ irgiuia, who, after having used it for several years in his own practice, and found its success so universal, was induced at lasi to offer it to the pub lic as a cheap but certain and excellent medicine. It has since become justly popular throughout the United States, as the most efficient Vermifuge ever known, and the demand has been steadily on the increase since its first introduction to the public. J3P“ Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR. M’LANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, mmu ufactured by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, I ’a.

Three houses were struck bv lightning, but no serious damage was done to them, and no lives were lost. The Advertiser says : In the course of an hour our streets were com pletely inundated—the water obtaining, in many parts of the city, to the depth of a foot or more. The water reached the floors of many dwellings, and the gardens were everywhere submerged, some of them nearly destroyed. The flashing of lightning and peals of thunder were startling and terrific beyond anything vve had’ever before witnessed; the wind blowing almost a gale, while the rattling sound produced by the hail, perfected the horror of this fearful early morning scene. The contiguous country is covered with water, and in hundreds of places the ground is torn up by the lightning, while in all directions are to be seen the shattered fragments of trees.

We find that the window sash and blinds of the Court House, and also the fence around the square, need some repairs, and would call the attention of the proper authorities to this matter. We find the county Jail to he in a safe condition, but would re commend that more attention be given to keeping it properly cleansed, and rendered as comfortable as possible. \\ e have examined the County Treasurer’s hooks, and find them correctly kept, and corresponding with his vouchers; we find, also, a balance in his hands of twenty-eight dollars and sixty-six cents. We have examined the books of the Ordinary, and find them kept in tlieir usual neat ami correct manner. \\ e recommend to the Inferior Court to levy a tax of forty per cent, upon the State tax, for county purposes, and also a tax of twelve per cent, upon the same for educating the poor children of the county for the present year. We tind that patrol duty is almost entirely ne glected throughout the county, and would call the attention of the Inferior Court especially to this matter, and urge upon them the necessity of hav ing the Patrol Laws strictly enforced. This Grand Jury further present, as a great and growing evil, the traffic with slaves, and that inas much as parties who have been convicted and punished for the offence in this county, are be lieved to have often repeated it, we think the penalty entirely inadequate to arrest the evil, el even prevent its rapid increase. We therefore re commend the next Legislature so to alter the Penal Code as to render it a Penitentiary offence. In taking leave of his Honor, Judge Thomas, we return him our thanks for lus uniform courtesy, and for the promptness and ability with which he has discharged his duties; and also to the Solici tors General pro tern., Messrs. Delong and Robin son, for their attention to this body. We request that the foregoing Presentments be published in the Chronicle A Sentinel and Consti tutionalist. Lexington, Ga., April 23d, 1856. B.

ZW Impelled by an honest desire to im part useful information, and actuated with a be nevolent wish to benefit the public health, we would call the attention of our readers to the great remedy known as “ Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure.” It is the only remedy now before the world, which with active curative properties combines entire harmlessness. That this is so, we feel confident, from the fact that Doct. James R. Chilton, the cel ebrated chemist of New York, testifies to its per fect freedom from any injurious ingredients, such as Quinine, Mercury, Arsenic, Ac., which form the active principle of most medicines offered as a remedy for Fever and Ague and kindred disorders. The article under consideration is based upon the principle that for every disease, nature furnishes the appropriate neutralizing agent. It is well j known that miasmatic exhalations cause Fever and | Ague, and the medicine before us is calculated ex pressly to counteract those poisonous vapors. Iu short, it is precisely what it claims to be, a natural Antidote to Malarial See advertisement. myl d.*c2vv J3F" Notice to Owners of Dogs.— Collars can be procured daily at the City Hall, until the 7th day of MAY next.

All the quack nostrums are giving way before it. Three-fourths of the mixtures for restoring and beautifying the hair do it more injury than good. They burn it up destroy the life at its roots, make the hair fall off, and produce premature baldness. But PROF.
