Gocld nil! deliver an address to the Graduating Class. Current News of the Day. The people of Columbus are talking about sup plying their city with hydrant water, at a cost ot about fifty thousand dollars, by bringing it about three miles. Au-heus Baker, Jr., Esq., writing from Kansas to the editors of the Columbus Tutus and Sentir 7i«Z, after very favorably describing the country, says “ Such is my confidence in the superior spirit of the southern people, that for myself, I have no doubt that Kansas will be a slave State.” We have been seeking, for some days past, to obtain some reliable report of the proceedings ol the Congressional committee sent out to Kansas, and also something like an authentic statement ol the attempted murder of Mr. Sheriff Jones. The account which we publish to-day, from the St. Louis Republican, appears to be as impartial a statement as it is probable we can obtain from an' source, and we commend its perusal to those ol our readers who feel an interest in the affairs oi Kansas. A company of twenty-five enterprising young men from Meriwether county, under command ol F. A. Boooan, left Atlanta Friday morning for Kansas. Thadecs G Holt, Jr., and F. Cleveland, were recently admitted, during Bibb Superioi Court, to practice law iu this State. The jury of the Superior Court of Bibb count} - , in the case of the State vs. Thomas Sorrell, in dicted for the murder of a negro, were unable to agree upon a verdici. The Judge of the City Court of Macon has de termined that members of volunteer and fire com panies, in that city, are not subject to jury duty. It is confidently announced that the Thomaston and Barnesville railroad will be completed the pre sent year. The Marietta Georgian, of the loth, says: “The Annual Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church for the diocese of the State of Georgia, closed its session in this place Saturday last. On the Sabbath two gentlemen were ordained, one, Rev. Mr. Pinkerton, formerly of Augusta, to the office of Priest, and Rev. Wm. McAilet to the of fice of Deacon. Niue persons were confirmed at night, and a larger audience was present than has ever before assembled in the Church. "We learu that the excercises were throughout interesting and harmonious. Sixteen minister? were present, and eighteen lay delegates. Bishop Elliott entered upon his office in 1840, when then were only seven clergymen connected with tilt Diocese. Since that time the number has more than doubled, and the increase in private mem bership has been corresponding. We find in our English files the report of a case tried in the Queen’s Bench, of interest to Ameri can shippers. In the case in question the part ol the cargo damaged was flour, the damage being caused by ,-pirits of turpentine; but both, accord ing to the evidence, were “well stowed and dun naged.” The turpentine, however, being in tin same hold, its contiguity tainted the flour and thus caused it to be deteriorated as a saleable article. The Court held that the ship was liable for tin damage, inasmuch as it had uot been caused by the dangers of the sea, but by the improper stow age of turpentine and flour iu the saw;, hold. Boston has been agitated somewhat by the re cent reception of a letter from a young sailor in China, stating that three vessels from that port are engaged in the Cooley trade—-purchasing Chi namen at fifteen or twenty dollars a head, and taking them to the Guano islands of the Pacific. Professor Morse, the inventor of the electric tel; graph, and the lion. Amos Kendall, arc in Boston. Hun. A. B. Greenwood is re-nominated for Con gress from Arkansas by the Democrats. Hon. Moses H. Get well and family, of New York, and Com. Sands, U. S. Navy, are in Wash ington. President Pierce and the Opposition Press. It is r.vher strange that President Pierce has seldom or never done au act, or recommended n measure, which has received the cordial approba tion ot the editors of the opposition press of the country. Whether the President has been unfor tunate, or the editors captious, most persons will readily determine. From motives ot prudential policy, the Presi dent refused to acknowledge Parker H. French as the Minister lrom Nicaragua. For exercisin'; that prudence, some e (itors condemn him—ami wheu the new Minister, Padre Vigil, is recog nised, the President is condemned again, by the same editors, for not having d ;ue so in the case ot Parker H. French; and urge an additional objec tion now that the recognition of the Padre may be displeasing to England, and may involve this country in war. These can hardly be regarded as legitimate or cogent reasons to oppose the President, when his course is opposed in the United States Senate, bv Mr. Crittenden and others, for his precipiiancv m the recognition of the uew Minister. There have always existed, and will probablv continue to exist, grumblers iu politics and morals. It is impossible to please one portion of the recus saut family, without bringing down a vast deal of denunciation from the other. The political morals of portions of the opposi tion press are rather novel. Sme assert that the recognition of the Nicaraguan Government now •‘may jeopardize the peace of the world.” If the “ peace of the world” is suspended bv so attenuated a web as the mere acknowledgement of the Rivas government of Nicaragua, the sooner the web is broken the better, and some more ade quate protection adopted, “laying its foundation ou such principles, and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to ef fect their safety and happiness.” It is simply absurd to urge against President Pierce, that his delay of a few weeks in acknowl edging the Rivas government, was a material blow aimed at the existence or stability of that govern ment. The recognition of the new form of a gov ernment, with which we have been in friendly in tercourse, is not a matter for impulse or passion to determine. Nor are the obligations of our govern ment to coterminous governments, and to our own imernrl aud external policy, to be cribbed and confined, for fear of “jeoparding the peace of the world.” While President Pierce is condemned on one side for his dilatory course, and on the other for his precipitancy, it is more than probable that he pursued the proper means between the recussaut assailants of his administration, and deserves the thanks of the conservative and sound thinking men of the country. A company of about sixty emigrants, from the Districts of Laurens and Edgefield, passed through our city yesterday, on their way to Kansas. There were eighteen deaths in Charleston during the week ending Mav 17th —-four whites and fourteen colored Bishop N. H. Cobb, of the Episcopal Dio cese, of Alabama, was at the Planters’ Hotel yes terday. He is on liis way to Europe for the benefit of his health. From every section of the southern country that we have heard from, there have been fine rains, during the past week. We have had very promising seasons likewise in this locality. UtjT The recent freshet in Broad river, (8. C.) has damaged the Spartanburg and Union railroad bridge, which is in course of erection. The loss is comparatively trifling. During the thunder storm on Sunday morning last, the residence of Mr. Michael Lorick, iu Lex iugton district <S. C.) was struck by lightning and sustained much damage. One of the gable' ends «as entirely removed, and brick from the chim ney were thrown to a great distance from the house. The family were in the parlor at the time, but escaped unharmed. A servant girl was slight ly stunned. A mule standing some distance from the house was instantly killed. So says the Caro lina Times. The Charleston Courier contains a very j pleasant correspondence between P. O. Basvecchi, ■ the author of a dirge to the memory of the la- j mented Calhoun, and Ole Bell, and the Ladies of i the Calhoun Monument Association. The ladies j •ay in conclusion to Ole Bell ; “No flower that Charleston can bestow, could i possibly add brightness to that wreath of fame ! whose enduring buds have been gathered from a I world; therefore the ladies must content them- | selves with rendering their most grateful thanks S tnd wishing Mr. Ole Bull a continuance of the i success that his genius has ever won him in lus' distinguished career.” The Peace < ongress Doctrines Prevailing.— The most sensible feature of the whole proceedings , of the conterenceof the European Plenipotentiaries ’ is the conclusion at which the conference arrived 1 that, iu the event of any serious misunderstanding wising between any of the powers, they shall, be fore appealing to arms, have recourse to the good offices of a friendly power, which is carrying out Hi substance the principle of the Peace Congress, md is certainly a more rational and less expensive way to settle a difficulty than the resort to gun powder. Louis Napoleon and the English Press. — Since the cessation of hostilities a much less friend ly tone pervades the English press towards Lotts Napoleon ; his acts are criticised with more as perity; and the recent speech which Count Walew ski made at the conference, the burden of which was to silence the press of Belgium, m order to please his Imperial master, has been resented in strong editorial articles. Heavt Damages. —Ex-Recorder Jacob L. Win ter, of New Orleans, recently sued the editors ot he Crescent for libel, laying his damages at $20,- ■OO. He recovered the enormous amount of one cent. ’1 he fast youths of Schenectady are being looked after by the City Fathers of that city—who have passed a law “ to prevent the improper assembling of boys,” and which provides that it “ shall not be lawful for boys to gather around any corner, or about any store, tavern, dwelling, bridge, or plav oall in the streets, or to make a noise, use profane language, play marbles, or pitch cents in any of the open places, streets or lanes of the city. Eve ry offender is liable to a fine of $5, or imprison ment for ten days.” Public Meeting. Eluay, Georgia, May 17, 1858. A public meeting of the citizens of Gilmer coun ty was held in the Court House on the lf>th inst., for the purpose of taking action on the importance if building the Elijah railroad, when Benjamin Johnston was called to the Chair, and W. R. Cole man requested to act as Secretary. Col. E. W. Chastain and Gen. A. J. llansell be ing called upon to address the meeting, who, iu their spirited manner, portrayed the vast irnpor ince of the work at some length, when the follow ing preamble and resolutions were submitted : We believe it is the true interest of every section of the State, to connect the copper mines, in the vicinity of Ducktown, with the State road at some ■ligible point. ft is manifestly a work of great importance to the great growing and rapidly increasing business >f the State road, in which our whole people have in interest. It cannot fail to be seen by the most ordinary capacity, that all our railroad corporations, peiie rating the whole State from Atlanta, have a deep ind abiding interest in this enterprise, for we lazard nothing in affirming, positively, that as a feeder to our entire railroad system, the contem plated road would have no equal. We are not unmindful of the fact that these great advantages, which are in the easy grasp of our people and our own State, are in danger of being lost to us partially, if not entirely, by the rival in terests and enterprises in other States. Therefore, iu accordance with our feelings of in terest in this question, we ask our people, our whole people, and especially the citizens of the j counties through which the road would run, and j our railroad corporations and companies, to awake J to the importance < f the enterprise, and take im ’ mediate action. i It is known to us who live in this section, that | the route for the road from points on flic Western j and Atlantic railroad, is not only practicable but a : very cheap one. We fear that this is not genera!- : ly known, and. therefore, earnestly entreat our i friends ot the Georgia railroad, the Macon and | Western railroad, and the Central railroad Compa nies, and other connecting roads, to aid us in sur veying the route, and reporting upon its practica bility and utility. Therefore— -Ist. Resolved, That a committee of three be ap pointed by the Chairman of this meeting to cor respond with the Presidents of the above roads on this subject. 2d. lb solved. That a subscription in each militia district in this county be taken to defray the ex penses of a survey ot' the route. 3d. Resolved, That we ask the railroad compa nies to aid us liberally, by subscription, for this purpose. 4th. Resolved, That we recommend to the citi zens of Fannin, Gordon, and other counties who feel an interest in this great work, to hold meetings immediately or, this subject. sth. Resolved, That we fully and cordially sus tain Gov. Johnson in vetoing the charter of tht Hiwassee railroad hill, and think great injustice is i being done by public meetings held, impugning the motives of the Executive of our State, who acted from principles of State police. ■ith Resolved, That the above proceedings be . published in the Savannah weekly Journal and weekly Constitutionalist, with a request that all 1 others friendly to the cause will copy. On motion, the above preamble and resolutions, without dissent, were adopted. The Chair then appointed J. J. Field, K. R. Hint and E. W. Chastain, a committee of three, to correspond as requested in resolution Ist. The meeting then adjourned. Benjamin Johnston, Chairman. W. R. Coleman, Secretary. Knowing. -Professor Wood, whose advertisement will be found in another col umn, has discovered a remedy for the gray and the bald, which is at once practicable and cheap. It requires no dyeing, no wig, nor extraordinary trouble. There can be no doubt whatever of its efficacy. We have seen testimonials almost with out number, and from men of great intelligence, hiptli standing and moral worth. Those who have been bald for years, are now wearing their own hair, and appear ten years younger than they did six months ago. As in most cases gray hairs aud bald heads are both prema ture and unnatural, it is a duty to remedy them by the natural and undoubted means which Professor Wood has invented, and now kindly offers to the afflicted. Read his advertisement, try his wonder ful remedy, and give the Professor a new testimo nial.— Me .aphut Whig. For sale, wholesale and retail, bv M M.

C Caldwell, and family, are invited to attend the fu neral of the former, at the house of the latter, on McKinne street, above the factory, THIS (Thurs day) AFTERNOON, at 4 o'clock. my 22 DIED, After a short illness, at his residence in Gaines ville, Ga., on the Oth of May, ISSG, iu the 82d year of his age, Dr. Richard Banks. Never before have the feelings of the people of this village and the surrounding country, been so chilled, and their hearts so wrung with grief, at the decease of one of their number. Seeing him but two days previous to his death, the picture of health, the pride of his associates, endeared to all by that kindness of heart, that gentleness of dispo sition, that want of ostentation, that urbanity of manners, that general intelligence, for which he was so deservedly celebrated, an ornament to society, aud the solace of his community’s afflic tions —none but the Omniscient could have known that his earthly career was about to terminate. None but the A mighty cun tell why it is that he who, tlius so uniw :sally esteemed, admired by all, without an eneui to mar his happiness, or an im pure sentiment to fester within his breast, should be cut off from an endearing family, a loving com munity, and the wicked be allowed to live, as the spared monuments of his boundless goodness and endless mercy. The subject of these remarks was a native Geor gian—one of her gifted offspring—of a highly re spectable family ; born in the county of Elbert, in the year 17i*4, the son of Mr. Ralph Banks. Evi dencing in youth, as ho ever did in manhood, the marks of a strong mind, he was thoroughly pre pared, aud at an early age, entered the Medical College at Philadelphia. Pursuing energetically his studies; always enjoying the implicit confi dence of his fellow-students, to whom they looked as their superior, and as one to whom they would ever alter, should occasion offer, be pleased to bear a tribute of respect. There he graduated, in the year IS2I, not only with honor to himself, but to the place of his education and the family to which he belonged. Before entering at large upon the profession of his choice; in order that lie might reduce to practice the theories of Surgery and Medicine, which he so full v comprehended ; before entering upon the future field of his labors, ’midst the companions of bis childhood ; and especially that he might successfully master the most malig nant maladies that might bo brought to his favor able notice, he consigned himself, for three vears more, to the labors of the hospital in the city of brotherly love. Thus being prepared, he returned to his native place, to receive the gladsome wel comes of his early associates. From the earnest entreaties of his confidential friends, here he com menced, and for a scries of years continued to prac tice his profession in the county of Elbert and the adjoining portion of South Carolina. With what success, let the family yet living—the subjects of his ministrations—bear witness. However, to this fact, likewise, let the esteem with which he has ever been held, bis position in this State as a physician—at the time of its organization, was se lected and continued up till the day of his death, one of the Medical Board, and which, in active la bor. he stood inferior to none, at the head of his profession, bear corroborating testimony. In the course of time, having weakened his strength by incessant and apparently endless labor, that his days might be prolonged, and his useful ness increased; that his energies might be re newed and his general system invigorated by the cxhileratitig breezes of a climate congenial to an enfeebled constitution, in 1832 he moved to Gaines ville, in Hall comity. Enjoying, for a short time, the pure atmosphere of this region, his strength increasing, and his health renewed, at the solicita tions of hi" friends, hot i far and neap, he was again forced for a few years into the field of practice ; during which period the halt, the blind, the maim ed, persons afflicted with every species of disease known to the human family, flocked around him. His celebrity, which was great, did not exceed his deserved worth, nor the amount of his actual busi ness. But feeling his former weakness stealing upon him, finding his pecuniary resources ample, he was compelled to narrow down the business of his profession to a very lit filed sphere. To this circle, us well us to all that called upon him, he gave freely his invaluable advice, and prescribed gratuitously even up to the period of his death. In Georgia, never has a physician won a more en viable reputation, nor has a Surgeon, in the per formance of his operations, so completely secured the affections of his patients. As a politician, those measures, in his opinion, hat would accrue to the well being of his country, were by him forcibly and unflinchingly advocated! He desired no distinction, although parts of pre ferment wore often tendered him, vet as often were hev kindly refused. Being purely Democratic in dl liis notions, a mildness and liberality pervaded every sentiment that feli from bis lips. As a man of business, be maintained the strict est regard for integrity. Honest and upright in all his dealings with mankind, lie asked of others to be likewise. Virtue, morality, rectitude and intel ligence formed a sure passport to bis affections. T i the poor man. an unyielding friend. His deeds of kindness, his acts of charity, his untold benevolence, will speak in living tones, in years to come, when we He silent in the tomb. His hand and his heart were ever ready to supply the wants of the needy—never was a reasonable request sought but was granted. In 1841 he united himself to the Methodist Epis copal Church. Although fully, in sentiment and at heart, he belonged to this persuasion, yet as in politics, he was liberal toward other denominations. The mutual interchanges of societies added much to his delight. As the tree is known by its fruit, and faith by its works, so was his religion evi denced by his every act, his daily walk and con versation. In hint was the language of St. James fully verified, “ That pure and undefiled religion before God the father is this—to visit the father less and widows in their afflictions, and keep him- ! self unspotted from the world.” As in bis profes sion, us a physician, so among his brethren in re ligion, he stood their head and leader—the main stay and support of his Church. Let his numer- ; ous co-workers in Christ around me, testify to the truth of this remark. No man, even the most j sceptical, ever doubted liis religion. But he is g me from our midst, though not with 1 out leaving a lasting impression behind. His like j we will never see again. Gone the way of all flesh to realize the trims of his religion. Gone towel come that resurrection morn, when the graves of every age and country, from the period of righte- ■ ous Able down to the last trumpet sound, will de- ; liver up their dead. Gone to await the coming, 1 and meet ino more to part l that interesting family, the nearest, the dearest to his heart—when that voice, the sweetest, no longer in sorrow shall again, j in accents more thrilling, be heard exclaiming, ! “ that he is not dead ;” and when he aud they, j ’midst the ransomed throng of Heaven’s hosts, as cending on high, shall enter the mansions of ever lasting light and glory, in blessed harmony and happiness, to spend theirendless eternity.

In Cuts, Wounds, Sprains and Bruises—casual ties to which children are constantly subject—the action of the genuine DALLEY’S PAIN EXTRAC TOR is ever the same! How much pain and suf fering may not thus be prevented ! Moreover, life itself is often dependent upon having at hand the genuine DALLEY’S EXTRACTOR, and for par ticulars of which I respectfully refer to my printed pamphlets, for the truth of which I hold myself re sponsible. No case of Burns and Scald, ua matter how se vere, has ever yet, in any one instance, resisted the all-powerful, pain-subduing and healing qualities of the DALLEY’S PAIN EXTRACTOR. No Pain Extractor is genuine unless the box has upon it a Steel Plate Engraved Label with the sig ! nature of C. V. CLICKENER & CO., Proprietors, and HENRY DALLEY, Manufacturer. Price 25 cents per box. All orders should be addressed to C. V. Cliek ener A Co., 81 Barclay street, New York. D. B.

What Lady or Gentleman would remain under the curse of a disagreeable breath when, by using the “BALM j OF A THOUSAND FLOWERS ” as a dentrifice, would not only render it sweet, but leave the teeth white as alabaster? Many persons do not know ‘-heir breath is bad, and the subject is so delicate their friends will never mention it. Pour a single drop of the “ Balm ” on your tooth-brush, and wash the teeth night and morning. A fifty cent, bottle will last a year. A Beai tiftl Complexion may easily be acquired by using the “ Hahn of a Thousand Flowers.’’ It will remove tan, pimples and freckles from the skin, leaving it of a soft and roseate hue. Wet a towel, pour on two or three drops, and wash the face night and morning. Shaving Made Easy.—Wet your shaving-brush in either warm or cold water, pour on two or three drops of the “ Palm of a Thousand Flowers,” rub the beard well, and it will make a beautiful soft hither, much facilitating the operation of shaving.

Yicil—The memorable j exclamation of the renowned Roman Conqueror 1 might, with the greatest propriety, be uttered In Dr. Rhodes, for with his “ Fever and Ague Cure” I j he has accomplished a greater conquest than ever ; wreathed with laurel crown the brow of Cassar. j “Peace hath her victories, no less renewed than war,” and no greater triumph was ever achieved by chemical skill than the production of this great remedy for the malarious diseases which afflict our western country. Tt is surely a nobler ambition to alleviate the miseries of the human race by destroying disease, than to inflict additional suffering by the desolating j scourge of war —and he who saves one life is great er than he who destroys thousands. The article in question possesses the peculiar property of com- : pletely neutralizing the effects of those poisonous ; vapors which induce Fever and Ague, and, bv its I unvarying success, fully establishes its claim to the title of a perfect antidote to malaria. It is powerful for good, harmless for evil. One trial will commend it to your approbation. mvl6 d*c2w J3F Railroad Stock lor City Bonds.— i The City Council of Augusta will exchange for its Bonds falling due in the years 1856-’57 and ’SB, Stock of the Georgia Railroad and Banking Com- j pany at its par value, adding interest from the pay ment of the last dividend, at the rate of seven per cent, per annum, and allowing interest on the Bonds fiom the maturity of the last Coupon at I same rate.
