' Governor Chamberlain transmitted to .the Senate, yesterday, resolutions received from the Governor of -Vir? ginia, passed by the General Assembly of that State, in reference to the mili? tary usurpation in Louisiana, by which the right is assumed and was exeroised of determining who Bhall and who aboil not be members of a State Legis? lators. The effect opon the few of the lolt:oentro who' were giving heed, can be better imagined than described. Several took conniption fits.

He essayed it by movog that the resolu? tions be referred A) the Committee on the Penitentiary with instraolions to report u?twe?'h now and judgment. Whether he meant the "dies irae," or tuo jadgmeut which would overtake Radicalism in 'ibis life, is not dear from' the context.

No other poet 'has:. oimilor bonoro paid him. Othere may be equally admired for pootio gifts;'but none others of any age have erected altars of snob Undy? ing affection i in the hearts of their countrymen. Tho story of his brief, brilliant and troubled life has unfailing interest. He was a prodigy of genius, a model of manhood and the very essence of simplicity and candor. He overflowed with those aotive and ten? der sympathies whioh knitted all generous souls to him living, and whioh embodied in his matchless verse attach them as strongly to his me? mory. His misfortunes, the early ne? mesis of bis imprudences, his death before hh genius had fully ripened or gained those aoooASories of knowledge and experience which would properly wing biifli inventive faculties, nourish a sorrow whioh is itself only a less proud tribute to bis name than the ad? miration and 'love whioh it excites for the peerless qualities whioh we asso? ciate with it.

The CnoRAii Union Concert.?The concert, advertised iu another oolumn by thr Columbia Choral Union, in aid of the Washington street Methodist Church, iu this city, should meet with the mobt liberal patronago from our citizens. Of the object it is nuedlcss to speak, as the endeavor to build up our waste places, and once more give this denomination a pleasant and com? modious place of worship, commends itself to all. Those who attended the last concert of the Choral Union need not be reminded of the delightful evening then spent, or of the way in which its members acquitted them? selves. There is one feature of this concert, however, that lends additional interest to it. Since their last concert, the Union, with uu enterprise that cannot bo too highly commended, has secured probably the finest concert grand piano that has ever been in our city. This iubtrumout is from the celebrated mauufaotory of Webber, in New York, and was spoken of in tho highest prai.-e by the Adelaide Phillipps troupe, who used it at their late ooncert in the new City Hall. Mr. Joseph Hart Deuok, our justly famous townsman, will take part in the concert, and his brilliant execution on this grand in? strument will be u treat, indeed. Qo one and all. I Affairs in Edoefield?Nobody Ivil.T.ED-EVERYTHING QuIET.-?Di". Barker returned, yesterday, from a visit to Edgefield Court House, und also to Augusta, (in., where he bad an interview with General M. O. Butler. Tbo General says that, after the burn? ing of his house, he took out a warrant for the arrest of a suspected colored man, who confessed to being the in oendiury, but that Ned Teunant had paid him $50 for doing tbe job. A warrant was then issued for Tenount, who refused to be arrested. This in? formation was conveyed to General Butler, who asked tbe Trial Justice what posse ho required. The reply was, that as Tennant bad about fifteen meu with bim, that number would bo suftioient. A parly was selected by General Butler, who immediately ac? companied tho officer. Before they discovered the Tennaut party, tbey wero tired upon; tho fire was returned, and several were injured, but nobody seriously. Teituant and party then iled. Judge Maokey went to Edge field, issued a warrant, and Teunant was arrested and lodged in jail, whero he now is. The Judgo also issued a wurruut for General Butler and some parties conneoted with the attempted nrrost. General Butler went to Edge field yesterday, to give himself np? feeling satisfied that, he had acted within the law. Dr. Barker reports everything quiet in Edgefield, and that Judge Maokey was to address the citizens yesterday, at 2 o'clock. Seve? ral colored citizens arrived here, yes* terday, in a terrible ststo of excite* ment. The sbovo is the substanoe of the report made by Dr. Barker to Go v. Chamberlain.

Their triple step and doable-quick shufila beats rotary motion xoto utter insignificance. Sheridan anil Manb. as ohareoler and protean ootoro, are aimply immense in all their ante. From prelude to finale, tbe performance was of the most interesting and attractive charter in every feature, detail and ap? pointment. A The child artist, little Carrie Bo shell, gave token of a rare order of genius. She rendered the drunkard's child with a pathos and feeling that was intensely emotional, and took tho hearts of her andienoe. She also dances like a sprite. Tbe other artists, we do not hesitate to say, are all that has been claimed for them, first elsss iu all their acts, and none moro so than Dan Devere in his banjo solos. We have neither tbe spaoe or time to pay our attention to each artist, bnt the public oan take the will for the deed.

Sba Weed Tokio and Mandrake Film.? These deservedly celebrated and popu? lar medicines have effected a revolu? tion in the healing art, and proved the fallacy of several maxims wbioh have for many years obstructed the progress of medical science. The false supposition that "Consumption is inoorable," deterred physioans from attempting to find- remedies for that disease, and patients ofllioted with' it reoonoiled themselves to death without making an effort to escape from a doom wbioh tbey supposed to Do una? voidable. It iQ now proved, however, that Consumption oan be cured, and that it has been cured in a very great num? ber of oaseB (some of them apparently desperate ones) by Sohenok's Pulmo uic Syrup alone; and in othor oases by tbe same medicine in connection with Sobenck's Sea Weed Tonio and Man? drake Pills, one or both, according to' the requirements of the case. Dr. Schenok, himself, who enjoyed uninterrupted good health for more than forty years, was supposed, at one time to be at the very gate of death, his physicians having pronounced his emu hopeless, and abandoned him to his fate. He was cored by the afore? said medicines, and, since his recovery, many thousands similarly affected have used Dr. Sohenok's preparations with tho same remarkable success. Full directions accompany eseb, making ic not absolutely necessary to personally Bee Dr. Schenck, unless pa? tients wish their lungs examined, and for this purpose he is professionally at his principal office, aorner Sixth and Arch streets, Philadelphia, every Mon? day, where all letters for advice mnst bo addressed. Sohenok's medicines uro sold by all druggists. Jan 9 f 13 A Sound Health Maxiu.?"Order is heaven's first law." ThiB great maxim applies with peculiar force to the discharge of the vital functions. Disease inevitably supervenes upon physical irregularity, just as calamity is sure to tollow want of system and punctuality in tbe affairs of life. But while it is next to impossible to over? come settled mental habits oi disorder, it is quite feasible to remedy habitual irregularities of the body. Discipline the unruly organs by wise and timely medication, and health will be estab? lished opou a permanent basis.- Al? though there ore many remedies pre? scribed for this purpose, there is not one among them can compare in-'di? rectness and promptitude of ' action with Hosteller's Stomach Bitters. For every disorder affecting the bowels, liver and stomach, and for the nume? rous sympathetic nervous ailments to whioh alimentary or bilious disturb? ances give rise, the Bitter? aro a most reliable specific. Their wondrous effi? cacy is attributable to the fact that they first remove tho canoe of enob maladies, irregularity, and j then, by their tonio operation, repair tho loss of physical substance produced by siokness. Constipation, biliousness, dyspepsia, heartburn, sleeplessness, intermittent fevers, rheumatism and nervous tremors always spooomb to the operation of this safe and potent medioine. A regular habit of body, a good appetite,' eoand sleep and eaty digestion are among the blessings whioh its use confers. It invigorates, relieves depression of mind, and by promoting complete assimilation, ma? terially assists in eovering the ?0(1*? and hollow, pieces of an attenuated, shrunken frame with firm, healthy flesh.
