Augusta Evening Dispatch:
A Dally Xeirtpajter, at Four Dotlar* a year.

of the above title and price. Tt will be the or-
g in of no political party, and will be devoted
entirely to the latest Foreign, Political and
General News, gathered from the Telegraph,
the Mails, and all other available sources, up
t<» the departure of the evening Trains.
It is believed that there is a popular demand
fora cheap medium of daily news; and railroad
and telegraphic communication is now so per
fected as to render such an enterprise entirely
practicable. The large amount of miscellane
ous and political matter, contained in the cur
rent daily papers, Tiecessarily enhances their
value, and while it interests a certain class of
readers, renders them too expensive for large
numbers who would take a srtialler and cheap
er daily, contaiirng the latest news. Such a
paper it is proposed to make 'the Daily Keen-
hut DixjHifrlt, and as every department will be
under tne control of practical business men, its
efficiency as a sprightly and vigorous At u'*pu-
p*r, may be relied upon.
All subscriptions will be due and parable
upon the receipt of the first number, and the
entire business will be conducted strictly upon
the Cash System.
Advertisements will be received upon the
usual terms. SIM. A. ATKIN .SON,

tKeir newspapers without settling ail arreara
ges, the Publisher may continue to send them

Land Bought and Sold.
H VING devoted the last three years al
most exclusively to ascertaining "the (own
ers of vacant lots of land in Georgia, I am sure
that I possess fhore huwledye in regard tr the
real ‘anten1 ofsuch land, than any other person
in the State. Should yon wish to purchase any
land, not knowing the owners, I willnndertakc
to find the same and purchase the lands for yon
upon reasonable terms. In all instances where
I buy such lands, I nuaraatee the title*, fur I
will bny no lands, unless I am sure the titles
are perfect.
In sending yoni orders for land, always say
whether the lot is vacant or not: whether there
is a deed upon the. record to the lot; if so, to
whom made, when made, and when recorded;
and state what is the value of the laud, or what
you are willing to give, tcith title* complete and
perfect.
if I fail to find the owners, I make no charge;
neither do I charge unless I make a pyreh—a
I will buy as cheap as possible, and charge 10
per cent, on the cost; or I will undertake to
furnish you the lands at a stipulatedprice agreed
vnem, if possible to bnv them, ud take the
chances of purchasing them, so as <0 male a
cornmietwo. I am also buying low country
lands upon my own account I own a large
number of lots in Cherokee, which I will sell
low, or exchange fur other lands.
I also buy orselllands, in any part of the State
on commission. If you nr any of your friends,
bare vacant lots, I shall be pleased to get the
numbers and price; perhaps 1 may buy, orfind
you a purchaser. I shall spend" part of my
time in Milledgeville, to better enable me to
find the owners of vacant lands.
I am pay iDg the very highest prices for Land
Warrants.
Letters addressed to me at this place will
meet with prompt attention. Address.

Harper’s Story Books.
A MONTHLY SERIES OF NARRATIVES,
BIOGRAPHIES AM) TALES,
I '’OR the Instruction and Entertainment of
the Young. By Jacob Abbott. Embel
lished with numerous and beautiful Engravings.
Terms: Each number of Harper’s Story
Books will contain 160 pages in small quarto
form, ve:r beautifullv illustrated, and printed
on snpernne calendered paper.
The Series may be obtained of Booksellers,
Periodical agents, and Postmasters, or from the
Publishers, at $3.00 a year, or 25 cents a num
ber in paper, or 40 cents a nnmber, bound in
cloth gilt. Subscriptions may commence with
any number. The postage on Harper’s Story
Books, which must be paid quarterly, in ad
vance, is 2 cents. Harper’s .Magazine and Har
per’s Story Books will be sent to one address,
for one year, for five dollars.
The Quarterly Volumes, as completed, neat
ly bound in cloth gilt, are sold at one dollar
each, and Muslin covers are furnished to those
who wish to havd their back numbers uniform
ly bound, at 25 cents each.
Vnl. T. contains the first three numbers, Bru
no, Willie, mid Strait (bite. Vol. II. The Lit
tle Louvre, Frank and Emma. Vol. III. Vir
ginia, Timboo and Jolibn, and Timboo and
Fanny. Vol. IV. The Harper" Establishment,
Franklin, and The Studio.
They are the best children’s Books ever pub
lished. They wisely avoid the introduction or
discussion of religious topics, yet are such as
Christian parents may unhesitatingly place in
their children’s hands. The price is marvel
lously law. Twenty-five cents a number makes
it about six pages of print and two excellent en
gravings for each cent of the monev. The en
gravings alone, without a line of letter-press,
would be cheap at the price. One good thing
these Story books will certainiv accomplish—
henceforth inferior authorship! and usetHip,
worn out illustrations cannot be palmed off on
children. They have samples here of what is
best for them, and they are shrewd enough not
to put up with anything of lower qnalitv.—K
T. Daily Time*.
We have heard so many fathers and mothers
who recognize the pleasant duty of guiding the
mind* of their children in tbe paths of knowl
edge at home, speak in term* of the highest
commendation of this series of Books for chil
dren, that we feel a desire to sec them univer

Come to me in Dreams.
BY GEO. D. PRENTICE.
Come to me in dreams, loss.
Oh! come to me oft.
When tbe light wing of sleep
On my bosom lays soft;
Oh ! come when the aea ,
In the mom’s gentle light,
Beats low on tbe ear,
Like tbe pulse of the night—
When the sky and tbe wave
Wear their loveliest bine.
When the dew’s on the Sower
And the star's on the dew.
Come in beautiful dreams, love,
Oh ! come and we’ll stay
Where the whole year is crowned
With the blossoms of May—
Where each sound is as sweet,
As the coo of tbe doTe,
And the gales are as soft
As the breathing of love ;
Where the beams kiss the waTe
And the waves kiss tbe beach.
And our warm lips may catch
Tbe sweet lesson they teach.
Come in beautiful dreams, love,
Oh ’ come and we’ll fly
Like two winged spirits
Of love through the sky ;
With band clasped in hand,
On our dream wings we’ll fly,
Where the starlight and moonlight
Are blend’ng their glow ;
And on bright clouds we’ll linger
Of purple and gold.
Till Jove’s angels envy
The bliss tlioy behold.

that a period bas been subsiraeted. from
the sum of your life. The whole-amoimt
will by and by be told. It inaylie ac
complished sooner limn you think for.
But you are weary of time, and will not
nmrinur when it has flown,”
There was great solemnity mingled
with irony, in tbe woman’s face aud
tones. Ucr manner,had made the young
man move uneasily, and wish his visitor
away. ' r
“I was not exactly in earnest,” he
said mentally. “ Who knows but my
foolish murmuring may have summoned
hither one of those weird sisters whose
business it is to bold ami clip at will
the thread of human life? I believe that
I have called up Atropos herself; and I
can almost see in her hands tbe fatal
scissors. Well, I am not exactly ready
to die yet, although I did say something
to that effect a spell ago.' I want to see
my wife first. 1 should like to say good
bye to my sisters, also.”
But the young man’s mysterious vis
itor did uot give hiiu time to pursue bis-
meditations further.
“ Arise,” she said abruptly, “ arise,
and follow me.”
Cameron obeyed, without saying a
word. They passed out through the
street door, slamming it belli ml them,
and stood upon the pavement, among
throngs of people who were sweeping
forward to theatres, to .museums, to
bails, to gambling houses,. to churches
land homes. Gas lights sparkled iu rows
| far down the streets—a band of music
! was playing in the park .‘tides of human-
! life swept everywhere.
| “It is a gay scene, isn’t it ?” said the
! guide. “Let us stop h<*re a moment and
look at it.”
“ Pshaw !” sanl Cameron, nervonslv,
“ I have seen this street lighted as now,
a thousand times. There is no novelty
in the sight.”
-W.> . let it go foiward, ’.lien,” said
the woman: ‘"’perhaps we may find scenes
in this very square, which you liav.e not
seen a thousand times, or, if you have
seen them, you have not loohed at them
aright. Have you ever been into any of
these cellars, where want and wretched
ness, and squalid poverty cower ami
hide themselves, afraid to venture abroad
even in gas light ?’’
The young man shrunk back.
“ I do not visit such places,” lie said.
“ I never went info snch haunts in my
life. I would ratin-r not go now.” 1
But the woman turned and looked at
him so reprovingly, nevertheless he kept
on her footsteps.
They entered a subterranean r-.boefe.
