By Telegraph. From the Savannah Papers. Arrival of tlie Franklin- ADVANCE IN COTTON. Baltimore, March 2d. The steamer Franklin has arrived at New York with three days later intelligence from Liverpool. Cotton was very active at an advance of 1-16 to 1 8. Sales on the 17th, were 15.- 000 bales—-speculators and exporters took 7000 bales. Flour has declined 6 pence. Wheat from 1 to 2 pence, Corn has advan 6 pence. The Arctic arrived out in 9'days 18 hours, the shortest trip on record. Lord John Russell had introduced into parliament a bill to organize the royal mi- militia. FROM CHINA. A fire occurred at Hong Kong on the 28th December which destroyed 500 houses. Ewangzee was making headway with his re bellion against the Emperor. * - FRANCE. The approaching election was absorbing public attention in France to the exclusion of every thing else. SPAIN. The Queen ^has recovered from her wounds. New York, March 2d.

The steamship Cherokee has arrived from Chagres with 200 passengers and $214,000 worth of gold dust. ADDITIONAL PER FRANKLIN. Advices from Switzerland, state that Louis Napoleon had demanded from the •Swiss Government that they should suppress the political clubs and banish the French refugees, which they refuse to do, and have ^appealed to Great Britain to interfere in the Jnatter. Great discontent prevails in France, and ■a great movement it was apprehended would take place on the 22d ult. The Commercial ad vices, received in Lon don from India, were favorable. The Ber- anese Government had acceded to the de- TUands of England. The excitement respect ing the Australia gold diggings, was increas ing and the yield of the mines was im mense. In England the fears of a French inva- •sion was increasing, and the British fleet bad been ordered home from-Tagus. The Governments of Europe likewise, were gen erally making war-like preparations in or- •der to be ready for any contingency. Great Wheat and Corn States. A correspondent of the Pittsburg Gazette’ Writing from Washington, says:—From the -abstracts of Statistical returns already pre pared at the Census Office, it appears that Pennsylvania in i850, was the largest wheat producing State of the Union. I have had the curiosity to compare the six most prom inent States in respect to this crop, and give them below with the crop of each as shown by the return: Pennsylvania bushels 15,482,191 Ohio 14,967,056 Virginia 14,516,906 New York 13,073,000 Michigan 4,918,000 Maryland ' 4,494,680 In the yield of Indian Corn, Ohio bears of the palm or rather sh^ stands primus in- terpares magnos, for five States stand al most In a line inregard to qhis important staple: . These States and their respective crops are as follows: Ohio* bushels of Indian corn 59,788,750 Kentucky, 58,000,000 Illinois, 57,000,000 , Indiana, 63,000,000 'Tennessee, 52,000,000 The corn crop of 1850 for the whole Uni ted States is returned as over 500,000,000 of bushels, a gain of about 40 per cent, on .that of 1840. To Measure an Acre of Ground.—-in measuring land, 30 3-4 square yards make one square rod, and 40 square rods make one square rood, four of which, or 160 rods make one acre. It is evident, therefore that 40 rods long by 4 rods wide, will make an acre. The same result may be arrived at by measuring 229 feet in length, and 198 ' feet in width, or by measuring 73 1-8 yards in length, by 66 yards in breadth. To lay out an acre square, 209 feet on each side is the nearest foot that will make an acre, be ing less thau an inch each Union Meeting.—The meeting of the Constitutional Union party of this county, which was advertised to have taken place on Tuesday last, was postponed to the first Tuesday in April. Snake Bite Cured.—A little son of Mr, John Taylor of this county was bitten bj a large mocason several days since, and was cured by the free use of gin and tobacco; the one taken internally, the other applied to the wound. That was lucky, and we are glad that the little fellow was relieved by such common remedies, if they maybe so called, aud such as are used for the lesser ills of humanity. Persons should be certain, however, of a bonafide snake bite, before they resort to this prescription, else it may result in some thing less than a cure. Work nor the Month—Corn "Plants ing.—We’,publish an article under this head from the Soil of the South, which will be read with much interest by those of our readers engaged inlthe planting interest.— We shall publish a continuation of the ar ticle next week on cotton planting. “The soil of the South” is one among the best Agricultural papers that is published. It is edited by Col. James Chambers, of Columbus, an experienced and skilful plant er, who well understands the adaptation of our soils and the wants of the Agricultural public; besides it has connected’with it, mo: e especially for the Horticultural depart ment, Mr. Chas. A. Peabody, one of the best writers on that subject at the South. We commend the paper toiall planters and hor ticulturists, as a- worthy and cheap publica tion. Price $1 per year. Address Wm. H. Chambers, publisher,^Columbus, Ga. Medical College of Georgia.—The Lectures at this Institution closed the past week, the address to the graduating Class was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Conner, and was responded to by Dr. Winn, one of the class. The degiee^of M. D., was then con ferred, on^the class numbering about fifty. In the list of graduates we notice the names of W. L. Jernigan of this village, and J. R. Tucker of the county. $3F Gov, Cobb passed through Augusta some days since en route for Washington City and New York. The Constitutiona list says that he goes North to negotiate a loan authorized bv an act of the last Legis lature. Arrival of the America.—The steam ship America arrived at New York on the 4th inst. The small shipments of cotton from American ports, had given increased activity to the cotton market, and caused an advance of 1-8 on all grades. [This ad vance is the same reported by the Franklin,] The Bullion in the Bank of England is increasing. A 7 "iw Cabinet.—The Earl of Derby will succeed Lord John Russell as Prime Minis ter. Lord Palmerston in a late speech de clared that the peace armament was not sufficient to meet the emergency of the country, which, in the present situation of European affairs, is liable to be involved in war at any moment. England, he said, was a trained force ready for instaut action. France.—France was quiet. Another ministerial crisis is threatened. The Pre sident is forming a body guard. Belgium.—Louis Napoleon is charged with having seeret agents in Belgium, se ducing the soldiers from their allegience to the Belgiau monarchy. This government is increasing its army. Spain.—The Queen’s wounds have heal ed and her health restored. The Spanish clergy are favoring an allegiance with France. Later from the Pacific.—The steam ship West Wind from Chagres, put into Mobile on the 28th ult., for coal. She had on board some seventy passengers, mostly for Georgia and 'the Carolinas, _who disem barked at Mobile. Col. Weller, whose election to the U. S. Senate in the place of Col. Fremont as has been reported, was chosen after three days balloting, by a vote of 71 to 17. . A letter from Grass Valley of the 25th of January announce new discoveries at that place, in the shape of cayote diggins, which promise to rival the famed diggins at Neva da city. « On a branch of Deer Creek, some three or four miles from Nevada Citv, the dig gins were paying from ten to twenty-five dollars per day to the hand. The excitement among the Mormons still continued; they have fesolved to defend their affairs from further encroachments of the General Government. They are erect ing fortifications.

Greely Fpon Mr Webster. The address delivered by Mr. Webster, in New York on the 22nd ult., has afforded the Tribune an opportunity of giving that gentleman a special benefit for his tena- ceous adherence to the Constitutional Un ion party and the compromise measures, in which the Tribune considers that Mr. Web ster exhibits the grand mistake of his life, ‘that of always riding a dead horse.’ Now it is fortunate for Mr. Webster, that he should prefer dead animals to any of the ‘live stock which the Tribune has ever been known to keep. As any thing which the Tribune could say disparaging the claims of Mr. Webster would be a positive benefit to him in this section, and ought to be me ted out with a blessing from every quarter. We publish a portion of his strictures. “Yet it would be idle to affect not to see that Mr. Webster’s denunciations of Disun ion and Disuionists are aimed at disidents from Slavery and the'Fugitive Slave Law. National morality, good faith, devotion to the Union and other fine phrases are used by him to indicate devotion to or the meek est acquiescence in the bearing awa/ of women and children unaccused of crime in to a state of eternal bondage and chattel- hood. He does not believe, he would not even pretend, that there is any consid erable or noticeable party at the North in favor of dissolution se ; but he means to say, ‘If you say or do any ‘thing against Slavery you are in effect ‘laboring to destroy the Union.’ We protest against this co vert denun eiation. He might as well argue that we, by opposing the sale and use of Alcoholic Liquors, while several States are largely and disproportionately engaged in their manufacture, are virtual Disunionists. There may be unconstitutional modes of opposing Slavery; but laboring for Uni versal Freedom is not unconstitutional. So with slave-catching. A man may unlaw fully resist the reclamation of a fugitive slave; but the fact that he condemns and labors to overthrow the present law does not prove him a Disunionist, nor anything like it. “If Mr. Webster had been counsel for Shylock in the suit for Antonio’s ‘pound of flesh,’ wouldn’t he have electrified the Court and by-standers with his tremendous de nunciations of bad faith and his demon strations of the majesty of Law and the in violable sacredness of Contracts ! How he would have depicted the law of gravitation subverted and the universe rushing into chaotic ruin in case his client were balked of his revenge ! “Mr. Webster’s immediate fellow-citizens who have equal rights under the Consti tution of Massachusetts with himself, and who are therefore entitled by the Federal Constitution to the full rights of citizens in all the States, are this day liable in certuin Southern States, (having colored skins,) to be arrested and imprisoned, and ultimately sold into slavery, unless they happen to have money and friends to get them out and pay their jail-fees. Massachusetts lately sent an official arent to South Caro lina to provide for testing the legality of this kidnapping in the Federal Courts; but a Sovereign State—Mr. Webster’s own— was not permitted to bring a suit in vindi cation of the dearest rights of her citizens, and her agent was driven away by violence and in peril of his life. Mr. Webster, in full view of this, exclaims, “ We have a great and wise Constitution. We have grown, flourished and prospered under it ivith a degree of rapidity unequal ed in the history of the world. Founded on the basis of equal civil rights, ij,s pro visions secure perfect equality and" freedom to all ; all who live under it are equal—all enjoying the same privileges.” “Is the man who utters this sort of flum mery really deceiving himself? or can he hope that he is deceiving others ? What can be the worth of the Union if tame and dumb acquiescence in such wrongs and bold affirmation of such untruths are essen tial to its preservation ? ‘Between us be Truth !” A plan for establishing a telegraph across the Isthmus, has been proposed. Union Convention.—The Central Com. mitteeofthe Constitutional Union party, have called a Convention to meet at Mill- edgeville on the 22nd of April, to take into consideration the propriety of sending Delegates to the Baltimore Convention. They recommend that each county call meetings and appoint Delegates at an early day. Explosion.—A despach from New Or leans of the 1st inst., states that the steamer tow boat, Mary Kingsland, while towing several boats up the river burst three of her boilers. The second Engineer, two deck hands and one fireman were instantly kill ed. The barque Patrick Henry, which was sunk a few days previous had been raised and taken hack to the city for repairs. APersevering Contestant.—Mr. Yulee of Florida who has been contesting Mr. Malory’s right to a seat in the U. S. Senate since the commencement of the present ses sion of Congress, has engaged the profes sional services of Mr. Reverdy Johnson, and Mr. Stanton of Ohio,;to represent him be fore tfie committee appointed to investigate the matter. It would seem that this mat ter is -.likely to prove a litigeous one, and the committee ought .to have power to a- ward special damages either to one or oth er of the parties, or to the country, for the patient manner in which it has submitted to- the boo ring. jJ£§T The Rev. J. Boring is Editing a pa- Presentiment — The Mobile Registei states that the late and lamented Capt. Geo. Huggins, of that city, who died on Sunday week, had been impressed for some time with the firm conviction that he should die on a certain day of the month—the 22d. He had expressed this belief fre quently during some months. On his last visit to town—his residence was a short dis tance out—he consummated the purchase of his grave lot, saying he had few days to spare^ before the 2 2d. On Saturday he raised up from evident delirium to ask “is this the 22d ?” and receiving a negative in reply sank back to sleep or insensibility. On Sunday, between 1 and 2 o’clock, faith ful to his superstition, he left this on the 22d of February. Important if True.—By the arrival at New of the barque Frederick Denting, from Rio Janiro, we are placed in possession of advices to the 12th January. A few days previous to her sailing, a rumor jiad reach ed the city that a battle had been fought by the forces of General Rosas and Urqui- za, in which the latter was signally defeat ed, and that 5,000 of his trrops had desert ed aud joined the ranks of Gen. Rosas. It was also rumored that the| German portion of the army engaged in fightiug against the Argentine Republic, had become greatly disaffected toward the Brazillian Government, and that Gen. Rosas was en deavoring to prevail upon them to become his allies. Skeleton Found.—The Savannah News of Saturday contains the following account of a skeleton found near that city : “Yes terday forenoon, as one of the officers of the U. S. Surveying schr. Gallatin was about to place a flag staff on Turtle Island, about 12 miles from Coekspur, he discovered the skeleton of a man. Near his bones were found a double-cased silver watch, very much rusted, a knife, key, pencil and pair of tweasers, all showing that they had been exposed to the weather for a length of time. These articles were brought to the city, and placed in the possession of Coro ner Eden. It is stated on good authority, says a letter writer, (they never have any thing else about Washington city) that Senator Douglass has consented to throw his influ ence into the Buchanan interest. The mo rale of the move being, that if Gen. Cass were to get the nomination, it would in any event prevent the North West from receiv ing it in 1856, whereby by going for Bu chanan, Douglass stands well for the next election. Congress.—In the House of Represen tatives on the 1st inst., Mr. Fitch asked leave to introduce a resolution sustaining the Comproraise 4 Measures, and deprecating all further attempts at agitation. The House refused to suspend the rules for this purpose, yeas 119, nays 74. Not two thirds. Letter from Hon. Jas. Buchanan to the Democratic Committee of Balti more. Wheatland, near Lancaster,) February 23, 1851. j Gentlemen:—In returning home through your city on Saturday last, L had the ^unex pected honor of receiving your kind invita tion to partake of a public dinner, at such a time as might best suit my own conveni ence. For this distinguished and valued to ken of your regard, please to accept my most grateful acknowledgments; and whilst regretting that circumstances, which it would be tedious.to explain, will deprive me of the pleasure of meeting you at the festive board, you may rest assured that I shall ever highly prize the favorable opin ion you express of my poor public services. To the city of Baltimore I have ever been attached by strong ties. In earlvjlife, I had selected it as the place where to practise my profession; and nothing prevented me from carrying this purpose into effect, but my invincible reluctance, at the last mo ment, to leave my native State. The feel ing which prompted me, in 1814, during the last war with Great Britain, to march as a private to Baltimore, a circumstance to which you kindly allude, resulted from a patriotism so universal throughout Penn sylvania, that the honor which may fall to the lot of any one of the thousands of my fellow citizens, who volunteered their servi ces on that trying occasion, scarcely de serves to be mentioned. If I rightly read “the signs of the times,” there has seldom been a period when the Democratic party of the country, to which you and I are warmly attached, was in greater peril than at the present moment. In order to avert this danger, we must mu tually forget and forgive past dissentioas, suffer “by-gones to be bv-gones,” and com mence a new career, keeping constantly in view the ancient and long established land marks of the party. Most, if not all the great questions of public policy, which formerly divided us from our political op ponents, have been settled in our favor. No person, at this day, thinks of establish ing another National Bank, or repealing the Independent Treasury, or distributing the proceeds of the public lands among the several States, or abolishing the veto pow er. On these great and important ques tions, the Whigs, after a long and violent struggle, have yielded; and for the present, at least, would seem to stand upon the De mocratic platform. The compromise mea sures are now “a finality;” those who op posed. them honestly and powerfully, and who still believe them to be wrong, having patriotically determined to acquiesce in them for the sake of the Union, provided they shall be faithfully carried into ex ecution. On what issues, then, can we go before the country, and confidently calculate up on the support of the American people at the approaching Presidential election ? I answer, unhesitatingly, that we must fall back, as you suggest, upon those funda mental and time-honored principles which have divided us from our political oppo nents since the beginning, and which, from tbe^very nature of the Federal Constitution, must continue to divide us from them until the end. We must inscribe upon oar ban ners, a sacred regard for the reserved rights of the States; a strict construction for which it was condemned, shall be ex To be liberal with their own money but sparing Gf that of the Republic, w£ E glory of distinguished public serv^ts t mong the ancient Romans.

I remain your friend and fellow citizen. JAMES BUCHANAN. e S0D ’ WilIiam Fel1 Giles, John CU Wharton, John Morris, Carroll Spence. William R. Ponder, and John A. Bowen,. Esqs. and others. [from the soil of the south.] Work for the Iffontli*»Cern JE*lo.u— ting. In our last we recommended the begin ning of Corn planting the last of the month, in favorable localities. But March is the- month in whiph the great bulk of the busi ness of planting is to be done, and we ad vise early and faithful attention to it. The- success of the crop must depend very large ly upon the time and manner of planting.. Other branches of business may admit of unfaithfulness and carelessness, with a chance of correcting, and to some extent re medying the evil by after efforts. Here, however, our errors are fatal, and do not ad mit a remedy. The badly planted crop, with a consequent failure 'of stand, inflicts an injury from which there is little chance «f recovery. With all sorts of hands to do the work, there is no security in any thing else but close personal attention, which sees that the whole operation is performed in good faith and according to rule. Some- men never fail, while- others seltlom suc ceed in getting a good stand. The casual ties of the seasons, always seem to work out peculiar harm to this latter class ; the wea ther is too wet or too dry, too cold or too hot; it never conies right, nor ever can, where careless negroes are left to do the work, away from the care and direction of their supervisor. With this class, all floats, smoothly enough, and swiftly too, as they are generally the first to finish, and crow over the tardiness of a pains-taking neigh bor, until coming up time. Then is re vealed the sad story of failures, reasons and excuses appended, of rotting in the ground, eaten up by moles, eat down by worms or pulled up by birds. All these do happen sometimes, to the most provident, but much is charged to the account, that belongs to> another. The explanation is generally found in the manner of planting. Too much haste- and too little care. The best half of the- work is done when a crop is well planted. The nigh ways and by ways, which are get ting to be introduced so generally, for doing the thing quick, have often operated as great drawbacks in the ultimate yield cf the crop, and reserved for another pay, much hrrd work to be done in the cultivation, wh’ch might have been avoided by better prepa- rntinna in fti/i 1 “ The International.—The March No. of this interesting Magazine has been re ceived.

Mint Juleps.—The Editor of the Sav annah News received a half score of mint juleps in one day, which he pronounces as good as were ever imbibed through a glass tube. Will uncle “Ben” of the Banner give that man a chat ? S3F It is stated that Gov. Kossuth has contracted with some two or three manu facturers in Cincinnati, for one thousand saddles at $12 each. It is singular that the Governor got all the way round to Cincinnati, before he dis covered that the animals had long ears.— He is something of a satirist, with his many accomplishments. Chevalier Hulsemann left Savannah for Charleston on Saturday morning, He seems to have excited considerable interest by his movements. The Savannah News thinks of obtaining the services of Major Jones to find out his busines. ' • are ca*es in which this previous mu very often is dispens- w rations in the beginning.

Claims which had been condemned by form er decisions and had become rusty with age, have been again revived and have been paid, principal and interest. Indeed, there seems one general rush to obtain money from the Treasury, on any and every pretence. What will be the inevitable consequen ces of such lavish expenditures ? Are they not calculated to disturb the nicely adjusted balance between the Federul and the State Governments, upon the preservation of which depend the harmony and efficiency of our system. Greedy expectants from the Fede ral Treasury will regard with indifference, if not with contempt, the Government of the several States. The doctrine of State rights will be laughed to scorn by such in dividuals, as an absolute abstraction un worthy of the enlightened spirit of the age. The corrupting power of money will be felt throughoht the length and breadth of the land ; and the Democracy, led on by put down the Bank of the United States, if the same fatal influence the stalk, and to spread themselves put near the surface. If, therefore, the first start of the plant is not deep in the ground, so that at each sue- . cessive working, an additional supply of earth may be placed about the roots, these additional supply of roots, which aid in the maturity of the crop, and the strength of fhe stalk, must necessarily suffer from im proper exposure to the sun. These results are to be looked to and provided for, by de positing the seed deep in the ground. To do this, the opening furrow should be made with some plow which was long and wide enough to throw out ali clods of turf, and allow the seed to be deposited, at uniform and proper depth/ We do not consider that much depth of earth should be placed upon the planted corn, or rather shallow covering secures every object, and greatly increases the chance of coming up. It is difficult to lay down any rule on this sub ject, wf universal application, as the charac ter of the soil and the season of the year, must always vary it, and the discretion of the planter must generally settle theques-
