Georgia BJews Condensed. Mr. John Ghisohn, of Columbus, a young man un der do years of age, and so * dimes employed in the Post Office, was aiTested < n Monday, 28th, charged with stealing money out of the Post Office.

The LegisWtim*. i> progressing with industry and energy—they have vast interests ttj. consider, and my opinion is, that they cannot adjourn before the first of March—perhaps not so soon. Our State iias iticivHsed vastly in wealth and population, and a ses sion of four months is not as long as one of two months fifteen years ago, considering the business then and now. The Brunswick Railroad, aid bill was lost in tlu House, by a majority of twelve, but was re-eousidorod, and now stands for action: Ido not think it can pass- in its present shape. Its friends ifiav.. fallen out, and 1 think the Savannah members care little whether it passes or not. Its considera tion has taken a great deal of time that might have been much better employed. 1 wish the people, one and ail, had b- -n h‘**v l r > witness the moans and <f fijrts this bill. After ii. was lost, its friends bold a regular m eting, m*t compo- -d of members of the Legisladu- - ion hut T the crow dos outsiders, who are ss\aiming Then; and infect the capital. The lie have ; a ! a number of bills dut ing the .re. k, but none of much general importance. Judge 1 nc’s bid icgniating the trial of criminal cases and pres u ibing the mode of aseei tabling the compe tency c jurors, was passed b the Senate. This bill vil! enable the Courts easily to obtain a Jury in cidmin.'d eases, and will bo found of gr* at value in the admin’s’ r. dm of justice. Every one knows how* .real have hocn the diirk-niiies and delayslierotolwe. The death of Mr. Miller made a strong and melaii <-holv impression, and for a u hne suspended business. Except <ei).

These, 1 presume, you have seen, iliey are understood to be {Voni tin. pen of Judge Cone, who was one of the committc-’.

Mr. Calhoun’s remarks ; ade a powerful im prt -'.sion, and were characterized by deep feeling.— j Judge delivered a eulogy upon tho life and j character of the deceased that, has rarely been sur-1 passed on any similar occasion. As he progressed, j tears were flowing from, many eyes, and sobs came j trom many lrtarts. I'he galleries and lobby were j crowded, and so was the Senate Chamber, and hut j deep arid .sincere sorrow, pervaded ali. : Mr. MillerTvas an able man, in many of the depart ment*; of life—he was a useful umn in all.

After these sad hotiots were paid, tUc Senate adjourned, Judg • Cone's bill regulating the’license and sale of spirituous liquors, has been before the Senate du ring the vveeje, The Judge supported all its provi sions whh his accustomed power and ability. He and welt with great force and eloquence upon those pro visions of the bill prohibiting the rale of liquors, cn election days, and to minors and students in colleges. I only wish that every voter in Georgia had been present, I think the bill would have passed almost by acclamation. As it was, it met with a very difo ferent fate. Many Senators, it is feared, look more at home in casting their votes, than to the wisdom of measures. 1 have never seen exactly such a feel ing manifested. No <she attempted to answer Judge Cone’s argument. I believe all thought that could not be done—-but very many thought, “if I vote for it, won’t it hurt me in the next election?” I believe that they are mistaken. I believe that the people wish to have their elections conducted with sobriety, and to preserve the youth of our State from those temptations that lead to ruin, wretchedness, and death. The bill may net pass this session, but it will pass. Large masses of our people are now calling for such a law, and they will call louder and louder, until it will be law of our State. The bill wasTinally laid on the table for the balance of the session, by a vote of 33 to 48. It was, however, re-considered the next morning, by a majority of one, on the motion of Mr. \\ ingfield, of Putnam, who has shown himself the firm and able friend of the bill. It may yet pass, hut I fear, if it does, that some of its important pro visions will be stricken out. BALDWIN. Col. J. IT. Lane, J. S. Emery, M. Hunt, Col. Dickney, Dr. Davis, T. Sampson and C. R.

The practice of Dr. Hunter has long been, and still is, literally unbounded, but at the earnest solicitation of numerous persons, ha has been induced to extend the sphere of his professional useful ness to the community at large, through the medium of Id's “Med ical Manual and Hand-Book for the Afflicted.” It is a volume that should ke in the hand of every family In the land, whether usedasja preventive of secret vices, or as a guide for the alleviat ion of one of the most awful and destructive sottr i ces ever visited upon mankind for the sins of sensuality and impu j rity of every kind. j It is a volume that has received tlx unqualified recommendation of the first physicians in the land, while many clergymen, fathers, 1 mothers, philanthropists and humanitarians, have most freely ex tended its circulation in all quarters where its penverfhi teachings would be likely to he instrumental in the moral purification aud physical healing of multitudes oi our people, among the young, vol atile and iudiscreet, otherwise the pride and flower of the nation.

To those who have been already ensnared to the “paths that take hold on hell,” a clear and explicit way is shown by which they may secure a re-j turn of sound health, and a regeneration of the soul troru its terri ble pollution. It is well known that thousands of victims are annually sacrifi ced at the shrine of Quackery—especially those suffering from Vc nerial or Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weakness, Ner vous Debility, and the numerous maladies which spring directly or less remotely from the indulgence of cam’ll passions and secret vi olations of Nature. - In view of these facts, and when it is also considered that about 100,000 persons die annually in die United States of Consumption —a large majority being the victims of the voluptuous indiscretion of their progenitors, agreeably to the Scriptural enunciation, that the sins-of the parents are visited upon the children, evenio the third and fourth generation.

BT FEBBEAB¥ 1401, I§6.^ IHAVE just received from New York, Balti more, and Philadelphia, the most extensive as sortment of Valentines ever offered in this place, and every thing connected with them, such as Writers, Verses, Envelopes, Lace Paper, &c., and am prepar ed to fill orders, Wholesale or Retail, at prices from five cents to twenty dollars. J have invoked N t nus, the goddess of beauty and love, and her darling Cupid, and they have gracious ly chosen for their retreats the Madison Book Store, and have commissioned their friend, Benjamin G. Liddon, as high priest of love, courtship and marri mony. “The world is full of poetry —the air Is living with its spirit; and the waves Dance to the music of its melodies And sparkle in its brightness.” This spirit of poetry arouses our loftier train of af fections, which are borne upon the gilded wings of Cupid’s messenger, in the form of aValetine, tosome fair friend breathing the pure sentiments of friend ship, esteem, and'all the kindlier regards for those to whom wc donate. It may, perchance, be received with silent approval, told only by the fair face, “Where eloquent blushes burn and fade, Rich with the wealth of warm etnotion ; Or starry dimples mock the shade, Like jewels in a restless ocean.” Valentines are the ambassadors of thought, where language fails. They substitute, in glowingeloquence, the reading of the heart, by their symbolic meaning. Faithful to ray trust, as a so vant of the public I am doing all in my power to further the interests of tnoso youths, and maidens who are suffering from an affection oi the heart. To all, of every ago, and of every rank in life, I offer a specific that has never faded. Such is the wonderful power of the Valen tines sold by me, as a philanthropist and conservator of the tender passions, that none make love without sending one as a pioneer. BENJ. G. LIDDON.

Jan 12—-44-^1 ’ volcanic Irepeating pistolsT npHIS PISTOL can be discharged with greater 1. rapidity and certainty than any other Pistol now in use. The following is nn extract in relation to them, taken from the New Ilavcn Palladium: *• Volcanic Repeating PUtol. —We have seen and Tired a pistol, recently invented and patented, which bids fair to excel everything as yet offered in that line to the public attention. It seems to combine all that Could be desired in such a weapon, Colt’s pis tol, compared with it, seems like a distortion, or a clumsy, uncouth and ridiculous affair for a fire-arm. The Volcrnie Pistol carries a minie or conical ball in a rifle barrel, and will put it through a throe-inch plonk at a distance of ninety rods. The receiving tube will hold twelve ball cartridges, which may be deposited in two seconds of time. The pistols may be discharged thirty times in fifty seconds. It is so contrived that it is not liable to accidental discharge. There vg no priming, no caps, and, therefore, no dan .ger to the eyes from ignit ion near the breach. Neith er is there any recoil so as to jar the arm or disturb a sure aim. The whole construction is so simple as net to get out of order even from long use. The pow der and ball are enclosed in tho same metalic cover, so that a person might swim a river with one of these in fcis belt without tin slightest degree injuring the powder. In short, the weapon is in all respects one of the most perfect things in the shooting line that we ever took into our hands.” tafA small lot just received .and for sale at the • MADISON BOOK STORE.

Bur nley, Esq. It contains 1050 acres, more or less, about 150 cleared, tho rest in the woods, and I hazzird nothing in saying,- that some of this land is as good as any to be found in the county.— There are about 200'acres oak and b : kory land, well adapted to tho growth of corn otton. But to any one wishing to engage in the Lumber business, this place offers rare inducements. There is a good SAW MILL, with excellent water privileges on they premises, and by a small outlay in fixing up the dam, any one of industry may sonn realize the amount paid for tho place. There are also, two sets of Mill Stones, which is an inducement to any one wishing to erect a Grist Mill. A good framed Houso with several Negro Cabins stand near by, for the’ac commodation of a miller ami bands. The market ftr lumber is good. The mill is two miles from Powelton, ten from Sparta, and six from Mayfield. Public roads pass by the the mill to each of these places, which bring them in direct eommu nic<\tion. The route surveyed for the Rail lioad from Warrenton and Miliedgeville is hut a short distance from the line of tho land, and if it is built, will make the tract almost invaluable. I wish to sell the whole in a bo ly, but if desired, will sell in parcels to suit purchasers. Several ellicible building sites, with good .Springs, make a division quite practicable. As 1 am too far re i oved to make these lands avail able, my residence being in the Southern portion of the State, I am determined to sell, and I promise any one in want of such a place, that l>y applying to me early, at Perry, (la., they shall have a bargain, eith er foi their own use or for speculation.
