Loss of the Steamer Glasgow. f’mtcngers and Crew nil Saved. * [From our New York Correspondent.} flie following is the report of the steamer jr r ; n , which vessel brought the passengers j crew of the Glasgow to this city: August Ist, 7.30 p.'m., saw a light on port bow. supposed to be a vessel on fire. At j, jo p. m. found it to bo an Inman steamer on fire, name unknown, in tow of a brigan tine. 4t 10.50 p. m. stopped the eugire3 and sent a boat to ascertain if there were inybody on board. Found the passengers ind crew had left in the ship’s boats, and tlwt si e was in tow Jof the brig Martha Wash ington, of Searsport, from Boston ior New i'ora. On the 2d inst, at 4a. in., stopped to pick up a boat with officers aud men, who reported that they belonged to the steamer Glasgow, on fire, and all their passengers nnd ere# were then on hoard the hark Rosa mimd, then in sight. Proceeded to the bark and took off all the passengers and crew be longing Jo the Glasgow, about two hundred and fifty in all, and brought them to this port. Cupt. Manning tiicn ordered the ladder lowered, and commenced transferring the passengers to the boats. The ladies and children were all first transferred, aud then in regular order the males were transferred. TGe friendly bark proved to be the Rosa mond, Capt. F. Wallis, of and for New York. He received the passengers and crew with the utmost kindness and bid them wel come to all he had on board. His officers and crew were also very kind. After all the .passsengers had been transferred the remo val of the baggage took place, nnd then the r Glasgow’s officers and men left the steamer, Capt. M. remaining by her uutil *• 10 o'clock P. M., when the ship’s hull va t | wrapped in flames.. The steamer Erin tame in sight on the morning of August 2d, just at daybreak, and it was deemed prudent to transfer the Glasgow’s passepgers to her, which was done, the Captain of the Erin receiving them in the most hospitable man ner. The orign ot the fire Js variously re ported, one having it that a bale of cotton took lire from a lighted match thrown upon it by a steerage passenger after lighting his pipe. On teaching- the deck of the Eriu some of the passeugers of the "ill-fated Wm. Nelsou were met with, who were exceeding ly anxious to render assistance to the un fortunates. At a meeting of the Glasgow s passengers resolutions of thanks to Almigh ty God, to Capt. Manning and his officers, and to Capt. Wallis aud his officers were ad opted. Nbw York, Aug. 3.—The following are the particulars of the loss of the Steamer Glasgow: £ The British Steanlef Glasgow left New York at 4 o’clock on the morning of Sunday, July 30th, for Liverpool, with a full freight of cotton, cheese &c., and some two hun dred and fifty persons,’ including the seamen, on board. Everything went well until about 10o'clock a. m.. 31st, when the cry was sounded of “a man overboard. '’ A boat was lowered and efforts made to save him, but they were unavailing. He had come on board in a state of delirium tremens, and had been put in a straight-jacket by the surgeon. Thus contiued he rolled himself ovciboaid. The excitement caused by this event had scarcely subsided when about one o’clock p. m -> the alarm of site was sounded. All hands rushed ou deck, and as the fire was in the forepart of the vessel, all the second class passengers flocked aft, amid the wildest ex , citement. Orders Were given hy the Cap tain and officers that no- person should get into the boats without permission, and that the first man who attempted to force his way into a boat before all the women and chil dren had been taken off, would be shot. TLe order was cheerfully acquiesced in by all the gentlemen in the first cabin. A vessel was soon discovered at a distance of some eight miles, and the Glasgow was at once put un der full head of steam towards her, firing minute guns and displaying signal flags, say ing “I am on fire.” The vessel changed her course and jnada for the Glasgow. In the nieantimo the Captain ordered all the boats to be lowered so as to prevent- confusion when the time came to occupy them. Destruction by Fire of an Oil Hole. Oil lIor.K, Pa., Aug. 3. Well "No. 19, United States Farm, on Oil Hole Creek, was destroyed by fire about seven o'clock this evening. The well was finished yesterday and had flowed about two hundred barrels, and no tanks being up the oil was allowed to flow on the ground. Some twenty persons were standing in and around the derricks, some of whom it is fear ed were unable to escape, for the ground for forty feet round was one sheet of flame in a moment. Three men are known to be se riously injured, and only’ saved their lives by jumping into the creek. The well is stlU.ffowing and burning. Prom Wo lUingtou. ; .

C., Aug. 4, 1865, To the Editor of the Savannah Daily Herald: Since my last communication, things in Beaufort have gone on in pretty much the same old way. The wfiather has not been so excessively warm except during the fore noon. In the afternoon wc always enjoy a delightful breeze from the water, which is very pleasant. An important order nr two h&s been issued and enforced- here lately. Ail establishments for the sale of spirituous liquors are now obliged to obtain a license, approved by the Post, and District Com manders, foi which wholesale dealers pay ten dollars, and retailers, fifteen dollars per month ; &nd if any person is found intoxica ted within the dealers’ premises, the license is to be revoked. No liquors can be sold after 9 o'clock, p. m. AH dealers violating these orders, in addition to penalties ad judged by the Provost Cmm, shall be re quired to leave the District, not to return. The Post Commander has issued an order prohibiting last riding in the streets of Beau fort, either of public or private horses ; a most excellent regulation. A great many horses have been utterly ruined by fast rid ing daring the warm weather, in these sandy streets, by men who, in addition to their lack of feeling for the poor brutes, displayed tbe'r ignorance of the nature and powers of en durance of the animal, as well as their lack of respect for their own characters, aud re - gard for the comfort of others. Gen. Saxton, though expected on the last steamer, did not arrive, and I know of no important changes in the Freedman's Bureau here, though doubtless some will be made when he returns. One or two of the former residents of the place have returned, and are, I learn, making efforts to have their property here restored to them. of the first dwellings in the town are used as hospitals, and not having been sold under the confiscation act, will, no doubt mauy of them, revert to their former owners, who are generally in very reduced circumstances, suf fering for want of the commonest necessa ries of life. The recent order from the War Department, prohibiting the issue of army rations to white refuges, makes their case au extremely hard one. As I anticipated; an examining board of army oificers, consisting ot Major J. T. Roy, of the 6th United States Infantry, aud Asst. Surgeon Weeds, U. S. A., late Chief Med ical Officer of Port Royal District, have been sent here to examine the men of the 104th and 128th regiments U. S. C. TANARUS., am? have now been engaged in that duty about ten days. It is understood that they are making a very fair, and not extremely rigid examin ation, and yet nearly or quite one-third fail to pass it. The company commanders will, probably, dislike very much to have these men dis charged unless they are allowed to recruit others, particularly in the 104th regiment, where many of them have not been mustered in yet, and cannot be unless the regiment is near the maximum. The increased mortality, however, among them the past two months, without any spe cial epidemic (especially in the 104th regi ment), shows very conclusively that some thing is wrong, and any who desire to satisfy themselves* with regard to the matter, have only to visit the Soldiers’ Cemetery here and count the headboards over some fifty-six or fifty-seven graves, placed there over men of the 104th regiment alone, since Juue Ist. — The mortality in the 128th is much less, though very large. I learn that we are to have a mail between New York and Hilton Head every five days hereafter, and all the people say, Amen. May the day soon come* when the railroads through Georgia and the Carolinas shall be rebuff, and the daily mails come through as of old! May the North and the South, for getting the bitter experiences of the past four years, use their united efforts to rebuild and re-establish, till we as a nation enjoy the prosperity and happiness which was ours five years since. Yours, &c., , J. W. C. —The Matamoras Uanchero mentions the receipt at that city of immense machinery for a very extensive cotton factory to go up in the Ulterior of Mexico. They" have the best water power, and the cotton raised in Mexico is only surpassed by the Sea Island, but them is ou the Pacific slope little land which will raise cotton, from want of rains or irrigation, while hands, despite peonage, can seldom he reliably obtained. Peonage,, the essence of which consists in requiring a man to work out advances to him and his family for their support iu consideration of his labor to be given, Is not much of a de pendence in a country Where a man can so' easily run away, and requires so little for his sustenance; —A Canadian lawyer, on a steamer from the Sageney, hauled down the U. States .flag, which a number of American tourists had raised, over which they were singing “Rally rourid this lag, boys." Tbeif patriotic en thusiasm was all spent in Words; for none of tlicm had the spirit to kick the fellow oyer-- board. When he had performed tVitf teaty J the vessel havingdeft the wharf, he jumped overboard himseif and swam to slipfe. “Adjutant General Thomas estimates that there are one hundred thousand colored' troops in the service.

I SAVANNAH, GEORGIA,' TUESDAY', AUGUST 8, 1865. TBS REBELS IN CAB ABA. Reported Attempt ot Kidnap (icoigt Man. tie rs. (Correspondence of tlie New York Herald.) Montreal, July So. There has been no little excitement in Montreal to-day in lelation -to the reported attempted abduction of George Sanders, and the police have been busy all night and this morning epdeavoring to hunt up the kidnap pers. Since the collapse of the confedera tion and the hasty retreat of Jake Thompson with the balance of the rebel fund, George has been keeping house on a very modest and frugal scale, instead of feasting as here tofore at the sumptuous table of St. Law rence Hall. Last evening Mr. Sanders and all the members of his family were absent from home, visiting at the house of a Mr. Townsend, a neighbor, and the premises were left entirely unoccupied. Some five or six men who it is now supposed have been laying round for some time watching their opportunity, took advantage of the absence of all the inmates to effect an entiy into the house, where three of them concealed them selves, the others remaining secreted in the garden. It was doubtless their iutention to remain quiet uutil all the household were asleep, and then to capture the unsuspecting refugee, gag and bind him, carry him across the river in a boat, aud thence bv a drive of a few miles, convey him within ‘the borders of the States, aud set him down once more beneath the protection of those Stars and Stripes whose glories he used of old to extol It is now known that the arrangements for the journey were all perfected, and the chances are that the scheme would have succeeded but for an accident. About eleven o'clock Dr. Contri, the son in-law of Mr. Sanders, returned home, ac companied by a friend, au Italian gentleman.. Dr. Contri, instead of retiring at once to bed , invited his friend to partake of some refresh ment, and went into the kitchen to procure it. Upon opening a cupboard he found one of the men concealed there, and immediately gave an alarm. At first, supposing him to be Sanders, the men sprang upon Dr. Contri and endeavored to seize and gag him ; but, finding their error, they knocked him down and rushed up stairs, where they were met by the Italian. A severe struggle ensued, during which one of the band vva3 wounded by a knife, and the Italian was severely, if not dangerously, injured. The kidnappers tlieu made a retreat, finding their plot frus trated, and effected their e«pape across the river. It is reported that the police know them aud arc on their track, and that two of them are from the city of New York. THE CANADIANS SYMPATHIZING WITH THE REBELS. Although, a9 a general thing, the Cana dians very prudently abstain from that open advocacy of the Southern cause aud that in solence towards the North, which prevailed among them prior to-tlie collapse of the re bellion, yet it is very plain to see that their sympathies are still with the rebels, and that their fears alone restrain the expression of their true sentiments. As it is, they very generally avow their beltef that Sanders, Beverly Tucker, Dr. Pullen and General Carroll are innocent of the offences imputed to them, and to this Delict, rather than to continued sympathy with Southern rebels, they impute" the intense occasioned by the attempted abduction.— “We care nothing for Sunders, they say, and yet it is questionable whether, the men who tried to carry him Off would be safe in the hands of the populace if caught. It i9.net doubted that the kidnappers were after the reward, and that the American government had nothing U>4q with the affair. Twenty five thousand dollars is a tempting bait, even though offered for a slippery subject, and the continuance of the proclamation will proba bly incite other similar acts. Hciytt and St. Domingo. Havana, July 29, 1866. By the steamer Pelayo we have received later news from St. Donimgo. Nine women prisoners of those made by General Gandara, on evacuating the capital, and held as hos tages, the Misses Taireso aud other ladies of good family, were exchanged on the I7th for nine Spanish prisoners held by Domini cians. It was agreed to hold a general ex change of prisoners on the 22d. In Hayti, so far, the rebels appear to have the advantage. President Geffrard, although he had bombarded and demolished the fort at Guarlco, aud killed the rebel General Schaumonon in an assault, bad not yet taken the place. The rebels fortified the fort with sand bags and earthwork, aud raised entrenchments and beat off every attack of Geffrard with loss to his troops. A message had been sent to Geffrard by the rebels, making as a condition of peace, that he should sign a treaty to allow only five years as a presidential term. In Jacnael the circulation of newspapers was prohibited, and the whole town was.un der arms. * Thr Virginia Elections. —Gov. Pierpont has addressed a Dolice to the justices of the county courts of Virginia, sayiug he has er liable information that in a number of counties in the State persons have been elected to the office of Commonwealth’s Attorney, Sheriff, Commissioner of Revenue and Clerk of Court, and in some instances Justice of the Peace, who are disqualified by a clause of the con stitution, which excludes from voting or holding offices any persons who have held any office under or been a member of any so-called Confederate Congress or Legisla ture. The justices are directed to consider all offices aboxe referred to, to which persons so disqualified, shall have been elected, va cant, and to order elections immediately to fill such vacancies. Hkavv Insurances on the Remainder of tab Whaling Fleet. —Our ship owners are anxiously awaiting further news from the whaling fleet in the Arctic and the Oebotsk, fearing, of course, and expecting intelligence of the destruction of still more of their ves sels by the pirate. There is a bare possibili ty that the captain of the Shenandoah, re flecting upon the information given by the Sophia Thornton, may have relinquished his devilish work ; but the news-brought by the Milo represents that he expressed a determi nation to destroy the vessels in the Arctic, and then those in tiie Ochotsk. The inter ruption of telegraphic communication with the Pacific coast is, just now, peculiarly vexatious.'. On Friday and Saturday the ship owners here effected insurance upon their vessels at offices in New York (the offices here having already taken their limit), to the amount of oyer one million of dollars. The rate, fifteeu per cent., is heavy, but the sleep of the insured is more quiet. The premium notes arc large, but the insured will be better pleased to pay them than to have the amounts deducted upon a settlement of their losses.— Xrw Bedford Mercury, July 3i. —During a late debate*in the British PaF liament. a member stated that iu England anil Wales alone there were a million of paupers, and five hundred thousand morn on the veige ot pauperism. The heavy Ration al debt inti the high taxes necessary to meet the interest upon it were assigned as the gause. —The Provost Marsha) in Bedford, Penn sylvania, was shot dead in one of the of that town last week by a rebel refugee lately returned from Canada, named Joijrf P. Reed. Reed and his brother, said to have been also mixed up In the affair, were arrest ed and committed to jail. Suicide of i R.btl Property Owner In* Eugtaud. [From the London Court Journal, Jut} 15.) Major F B , formerly of the 6th Dragoon Guards, and a gentleman of very exteusive acquaintance in London society, has put au end to his existence by blowiug out his braius at his lodgings in May Fair. The details of this unhappy occurrence are very painful. If our intormation be correct, the deceased derived the principal part of liis iucome from property invested iu the Southern States of America. The effect of the late war upon such property has, of course, been disastrous, and on Tuesday last a letter was received by the deceased which proliably had grave reference to such a ca lamity, siuce it seemed to cause him great disquietude. Ou that afternoon he appeared at a shop of a well knowu gunsmith in Bond street, where he was in the habit of occa sionally dropping in. He is described as evincing precisely his usual demeanor, nei ther elated nor depressed, and after conver siug casually upon the ordinary topics of the day, he asked to look at some revolvers, and ended by purchasing a small- one with five chambers, which he paid for on the spot. From that time nothing especial seems te have been remarked about him; but on Thursday afternoon it is reported that he paid a few visits to houses where he was particularly intimate .and, in some instances, made little presents oi jewelry. He returned to his own lodgings, where, very shortly afterwards, the other in mates of the house, being startled by the re port of firearms, rushed to his room, and found him a ghastly spectacle, but quite dead. It appears that he had loaded all the five chambers of the revolver, had placed the barrel iu his racutb, and had blown the back part of his head completely away. Even this dreadful event was fated to receive an additional aggravation. Though it was ob viously useless, the medical gentleman who usually attended him, aud was a private friend also, was instantly sent for. He found, of course, that all aid was out of the question, and was retiring, much agitated irorn the house, when, to his horror, he found driving up to it the sister and nieee of the deceased, who were arriving to pay him a visit. The necessity ot' some explanation and the pain ful scene that ensued may be easily conceiv ed. . The deceased was very well known in the upper circles of London society, and used considerable influence among them in the furtherance of charitable institutions, to which moreover, he devoted much time and personal exertion. Fall* Report. About Affair, in North Carolina. The following interesting telegraphic cor respondence has transpired between gentlemen from North Carolina nowin New York, with a view to hasten the reconstruc tion of that State by means of immigration, and Governor Holdon : St. Nicholas Hotel, N. Y.,> July 26, 1865. ( To Governor W. YV. Holden, Raleigh, N. C :• Dear Sir —W« hear with send you a copy of a press telegram, published this morning in all the principal papers North. It will go far to slop the tide of emigration about to go to North Carolina, and ought by all means to be officially corrected at once if not true. If true, we will have to cease our efforts to secure emigration ; but we believe there is some mistake about it, unless the people have greatly changed since we left home ; The Raleigh Progress says the native ele ment, including the aristocracy, are growing more defiant every 'day, and now openly threaten to hang Union men and negroes as spoil as the troops are withdrawn. The Pro gress says the troops must be returned, aud every consideration of justice and safety re quires their presence iu North Carolina as well as in the other rebellious States. Please answer immediately, Yours, very respectfully, Kemp P. Battle and T. -M. Heck. , reply of govehnob IIOLDES. Raleigh, N. (1., July 80,1865. To Kemp P. Battle and T. M. Heck, St. Nicholas Hotel, N. Y. : Gentlemen—ln reply to your despatch, I have to state that the great body of the peo ple of this State are loyal and submissive to national authority; that Ido not apprehend that Union met} will be hanged or punished; that it ail the troops should be withdrawn and we should not have an efficient local police guard, there might and probably would bo disturbance in some localities; but upon the weole, there is no ground'for ap prehending that emigrants will involve them selves in civil strife by coming to North Ca rolina. Let them come with confidence in the future. Our people generally will' be glad to see them. Very respectfully, W. YV. Holden. Extensive Bilk and Wine Growing Propo sition. —A proposition has been made to the Agricultural Bureau by Attilio Valtellina, of Lombardy, Italy, to colonize eighty-two Italians in the States of New York and New Jersey, for the purpose of raising silks and wines. The proposer agrees to furnish one million grapevines and ten thousand mul berry trees, and will transport the laborers to this country for $40,000, one half to be expended in the purchase of vines, trees, silk Worms, implements and other expenses. He says he has a perfect knowledge of the busi ness, aud that such a farm or plantation could be put in operation in three or four months. The first two years the production would be nominal* but the third it would pay a profit, aud the fifth year he estimates the production a’ the enormous figure of eight hundred millions of dollars. He says the climate of the States named is well adapted to the culture of wine and silks, and it Only needs experienced work men to develop the capabilities.of the soil, which will render us entirely independent of foreign nations for wines and silks, which can be produced in this country as plentifully and as cheaply as in Italy. He refers to Hon. George C. Marsh, American Consul at Tulin, us a guarantee of his ability to per form what he proposes. The Agiicultural Bureau having no authority to engage iu en terprises of this kind, cannot entertain the proposition, but it is a matter well worthy the attention of capitalists. Georgia is the proper field for such an en terprise. An Indignant Ex-Duks—Dr. Gwinn, whose dukedom in Sonora was considered a sure thing, lias left Mexico for Texas, denouncing Maximiliau, and predicting his downfall. It is said the Doctor, like a good prophet, is trying to fulfil his own predictions, for the sensational report from the Rio Grande, of the concentration of an Imperial army upon that frontier, is ascribed to him, the purpose being to involve Mexico ana the Uuited States in trouble. Such little political tricks as these will fail of their intention. If the United States ever- interfere in the affairs of Mexico, it will be for the settlement of an avowed political principle, and not to gratify any feeling of resentment which may arise from the display of force, leading to. the pre sumption that the rights claimed were to be maintained, at all hazards.
