Theatre. * Mr. Skafib appears to-night in his . great original character of Iluroltle. which has been received with cnthnsi asm in all the principal cities. He will also appear in the beautiful comedy of : Faint Heart Never won Fair Lady, iu the character of Gomel, when our thea- ! tre-goers will have a rare display of his versatile talent as author and actor. It is the occasion of his benefit, and the last nut one of the season. -Yew Advertisements. W'e have neglected to' notice several recent accessions to our list of advertis ing patrons, and as it is never too lute to do good, we must be pardoned for this tardy tender of welcome to our columns. CnuiicHii.L, at the store of Mr. Wood ruit advertises Butter, Cheese, Onions, Apples, and Potatoes, which his facili ties for getting supplies enable him to offer at wholesale at very low prices. Burr, Morris &Co., advertise a large lot of very superior Potatoes, on con signment, which they offer at low figu res. This is among the largest Grocery houses in the city. Their stock is al" ways large, and purchasers will, we have no doubt find, their prices satisfac tory. Chalmers—-The Ambrotypest—is on hand for the winter campaign, and pro poses to furnish good pictures at fifty | cents. His gallery is well-known, and his specimens fully sustain his claims as an experienced and efficient artist. We hope lie will be liberally patronized. A. Frederick, full of good feeling for the little folks, lias a perfect tem ple of holiday attractions, calculated to tempt the eye, the ear and tiro palate. , Carmichael, &Co., advertise a large; lot of seed Oats. More to-morrow. — Hungcrous CounteiTeit.- We were shown this morning, at the j Georgia Railroad Bank, two counterfeit i notes of the denomination of fifty dol- i iars, on that bank, which are remarka bly well executed, and difficult to do | tect. The points of difference, arc va | lions, but it requires the closet observe- i tion to discover them. fig'The unknown man, who died at j the Marshal's office, on Wednesday ■ night, was -a Mr. Pearson, a native of Massachusetts, but recently a resi dent oi Hamburg, S. 0., where he was engaged as a hatter. He leaves a wife and has several children in New York City. .** , Hait|wr’ij Magazine. We have received a copy of Harper, 1 for December, through Mr. H. D. Nor- I rel, and also a copy from Taos. Bieu- ARU3 & Sox. A New Sect. A correspondent of the Boston Jouon al, writing from Concord, N. H., says: For the past week a new sect lias been holding a prolonged meeting in Phenix Hal! Men, women and all have lived and slept in the building. They have not fully decided on their name, but are inclined to call themselves the "Ortho dox Catholic Church.” Altogether they number about one hundred.— Their next meeting is to be held at Do ver. They believe in community of goods. Civil law they do not regard, and en deavor, so far as they are able, to sepa rate themselves from its influences.— Their laws are Bible laws. Human au thority is weak, and, consequently, can not he perfect. To avoid acknowledg ing the law of the land, they do not in tend to buy any real estate, but, in the spring, they will hire farms, where all the brethren and sisters may live to gether in peace and harmony. They hold that after one has once re- ] ceived the reviving influences of the IlolySpiiit, it is impossible for him, not only to fall from grace, but even to j be tenipled. Absolute perfection seems to be their expectation. As an offshoot of the old Second Adventists, they be- i lieve in the speedy coming of the Sa ,viour. Thu time is not yet revealed, but soon will he. They intend that when He comes, He shall find His Church reaily and waiting, apart by : themselves. They respect the mar riage covenant. Three apostles, who are to have charge of their affairs, have beenchosed, the chief of whom is Eld er J. Cummings. .— —■- Civilization in Kouthkun Africa.— The British government has placed £40,000 (or $200,000) annually, for three years, at the disposal of the pres ent enlightened and able Governor of its Colony at the Cape of Good Hope, for the purpose of civilizing the abo rigines-of that region. A hospital has been erected, which has already exten ded relief to over 12,000 patients.— Good roads have been commenced, and a plan of industrial training for the children of natives has been establish ed. Several of the African Chiefs have sent forty of their sons to be educated at the Cape, and the Episcopal Bishop of that diocese is now in England, en gaged in raising funds to found a col lege for persons of this class. He ap pears to meet with much success. One of the neatest replies ever heard in a legislative body, or anywhere else, ' was lately made by Mr. Tilson, of Rock land, Maine. A member had replied to something Mr. Tilson said, and, paus ing a moment, he inquired if he saw;' the line of argument. "Mr. Speaker,” |' Baid he, “in answer to the gentleman, I j 1 would say, I hear the humming of the 1 wheel, hut cannot see any thread.” 1 < Whoever is afraid of submitting any J question, civil or religious, to the test 5 of free discussion, is more in love with I 1 his own opinion than with truth. “ Sut Lovengood” the facetious s George, is about perfecting arrange- c ments to commence the publication of a s Democratic paper at Knoxville. i A Sad Story. A sad story is told by j the Huntsville (Texas) Item:— A Fiencli- j - man and his wife were recently found: dead, at White Rock Slioajs, on Trinity I il river. Sometime this year, the par ties eloped from Louisiana, unwedded. B They took a place on the river, and r turned their attention to stock raising. But it was whispered they were living in adultery, and a true bill was found ! by Sumpter Court, Trinity comm c drier to that, the husband having 3i*ud I Fuat something of the kind woidjf oc cur, procured a license, and he and his ( wife went to Sumpter, and were mar ried. This, they thought, would put the question at rest. Not so. A true ( bill was found, and he came home fear fully excited. He and his wife were seen talking in a very earnest manner, and after a while the report of guns . j caused some of the neighbors to go and j see what was the matter. They found I : only their dead bodies. fatmeraal Intelligence. WEEKLY REVIEW. AUGUSTA DISPATCH OFFICE, > December 3, 1858. > REMARKS.—Wc have no important change to notice in the general grocery and provision mar ket since our last review. The receipts of pro duce are light, and operations are generally in smail quantities for immediate use. In Croc: ios there is a general tendency to full prices, th nigh ■ we make no material advance in quotations. Our table of receipts and exports, with the J stock on hand, and receipts, give an interesting exhibit of the operations in our great staple, and: our table of prices current is carefully revised,, and we believe will be found as correct a ciite rion of the market as it is possible to prepare.! Tt represents t!ie rates in wholesale transactions.; Planters and small dealers will probably find: prices a shade higher. . COTTON —Since our last report, the receipts have been 5,035 bales, against 5,192 bales for; the previous week. Wo lelt the market with a, good demand, at the following quotations : j Middling Good Middling H (a )— Middling Fair 11.’.{(2) — On Friday, the sale of 1009 bales was reported at 10 to IIX cents. On Saturday only 177 bales, were sold, at the same rates, holders asking an j advance, thi Monday.the market was more an-J irnated than at any time during the season, and I between 3 000 and 4,000 bales sold, at from 10 X . to 11 X cents On Tuesday the speculative de mand continued, and some 3,000 bale?

Middling Fair was quoted at ll 7 a ". \ some factors asking as high as 12 ; being an ad-j | vance ol % to % on the rates at the opening of j the week under review.

On Thurs- j day there was a further concession on tne parti Jof holders, but operations were limited up to j (close of our report at 1 o’clock, to 118 biles at; |atloy. to II cents.
