FURTHER INTELLIGENCE BY
THE STEAMER AMERICA.
From the Baltimore Sun, 30th ult.— By Tt legraph.
We received the following dispatch at eight
o’clock last evening from our correspondent
at New York, containing a summary of the im
portant and thrilling intelligence by the steamer
America, seven days later from Europe:
New York, Sept. 29, 8 I*. M.
Ireland.
The intelligence from Leland isofan intense
ly exciting character, the more so as it comes
upon us entirely unexpected.
Intelligence from Clonmel to the 13th Sept.,
states that the red and long looked for rebellion
has co me at last, and that the people are ri-ing
in every quarter. The patriots are said to be
posted in an almost inaccessible position at New-
Inn, near Carrick on Kilmor, on the Thomas
mountains, under command of Doheny, the
patriot leader.
In Waterford las night there was a general
rising of the peasan ry, who assembled on the
commons and marchad to attack the public sta
tions.
At Clonmel, on the 14th, several out-houses
of Protestant clergy man were burned.
Her Majesty’s 1 bird Royal Buffs came in to
day with twenty-eight of their men handcuffed,
for shouting repeal, and exhibiting a determi
nation to join with the insurgents.
The insurgents have now encamped about
seven miles from Clonmel, where they seize
upon provisions. Alc., belonging to the gentry
around, roasting bullocks and sheep, and press
ing every body to join them at Glent Bower,
some eight miles distant.
The police were seeking refuge in Carrick
when the patriots attacked them. A long fight
ensued. Several of the insurgents were killed,
and a number of the police badly wounded.—
All the police subsequently tied from the outer
stations, and awful and bloody scenes are ex
pected to take place to night.
Some of the insurgents wear the club uni
form, and have succeeded in capturing several
pieces of artillery.
One of the principal causes towards this un
expected outbreak of the Irish patriots, is be
lieved to be the scathing, abusive and indis
criminate ridicule heaped upon them and their
leaders by the English press, as well as a deter
mination upon their part to rescue the state
prisoners from their impending doom. The
excitement is spreading -ike wild-fire through
out the whole island, ai d it is believed the re
bellion will be general.
An English paper, speaking in a former no
tice of the leader of this movement, described
him in the following graphic style :
“ Doheny, the guerilla chief of Ballyneal
near the state quarries, drills a thousand men
every evening at six "»’clock ; he is a man of
powerful stature; his *rms are a blunderbuss
slung over his shoulder, a pike ten feet and a
half long, containing three pounds weight of
steel with a pair of pistols slung in a belt of
untanned leather. It appears there is a war
rant out for his arrest, which will be rather a
difficult task, as he can summons from the wdds
of Slievenamon a formidable force to his
rescue.
France*
The advices from Paris possess but little in
terest. The socialists were mustering con.-ider
able strength. They were much dissatisfied
with Thiers’ speech. The government authori
ties areabout taking steps to close all the clubs
throughout the republic. It is generally be
lieved that the republicans will carry Paris al
the approaching election. General Cavignac,
it seems, is not on the best of terms with Gen.
Lamoriciere, because, it a supposed, of the
former bearing too much o wards the demo
cratic party.
The Sardinian fleet has s. ’ed from Trieste,
to blockade Venice.
General Cavaignac is so much alarmed at
the prospects of the Bomipartists, that he is de
termined to propose a decree illegalizing the
election of Louis Napoleon, on the ground
that he is a pretender. If Louis is excluded,
Pierre Napoleon, already a member of the
Assembly will start for the
Inconsequence of the rejection of the armis
tice by Schleswig Holstein, and the acceptance
of mediation by Austria, it was reported at Paris
that the government had resolved to resume the
plan of forming an army of observation on the
Rhine and the troops on the Italian frontier will
be removed for that purpose, except 20.000
which will be left to guard the frontier. Gen.
Changatnier is to be the general in command
of the army of the Rhine.
An officer walking in Gen. Cavaignac’s gar
den was lired at a few days ago, being doubtless

Hostilities have doubtless '’ccommenccd in
Schleswig Holstein, althoi • h the German
troops had commenced evacua mg the Duchies
and the blockade had been raised.
Italy*
Tuscany has been the scene of a frightful
disorder. At Leghorn the populace rose in
consequence of an attempt to put down the po
litical clubs. A conflict ensued and one hun
dred and twelve soldiers were killed on the
spot.

Cotton.—The market was very heavy, but
the prices of Cotton remain unchanged.—
Eair Upland. ; Fair Orleans, 4s. The lower
qualities have declined in price, and are consid
ered 4th lower than our last advices. The
market during the week has been very dull,
though the sales amounted to 29,000 bales.
Breadstuff*.—The Elour market remains
without change. Best American is quoted at
335. to 345. per bbl. Wheat has declined an
average of 2d. per 70 lbs. Indian Corn was

Eurlhcr by the America*
Last evening, we received further Tele
graphic advices, inforn.ing us that the news by
the America was considered favorable in New
York. In this city the accounts received on
•Saturday were viewed in a different light.
It is now stated that there had been no de
cline in Cotton in the Liverpool market. Our
first news by the America stated that the quo
tations for fair Cotton were the same as before,
but that there had been a decline of an eighth
in the lower qualities, which we think is likely
to have been the case, although these descrip
tions of Cutten may have recovered from the
depression at the very last date.
The potato crop in Ireland is said to be less
than an average one. although the weather had
been good.
With regard to the Irish rebellion, the ac
counts are conflicting. ’The European 'Times
says that iheatfair is one arising from a difficul
ty about crops. and a fear of another year of
starvation. Other papers, however, speak of
it in different terms, and consider it in a much
more serious light.

Letter from Mr. Eillmore*
A citizen ot Boston addressed a letter, some !
weeks ago to Mr. Fillmore our justly respect

him to inform said citizen of ins views in rela

First. Are you in favor of a repeal of the
naturalization laws of the United Sta es’ If
so. are you in favor of excluding foreigners '
from participating in the elective franchise un

Mr. Fillmore answered him as follows:

Anniversary- ol the Battle of Monterey—
’Torchlight Profession.
The anniversary of the battle of Monterey
was last evening celebrated by a grand turnout
of the friends of (ieii. Taylor, and one of the
finest torchlight precessions we have ever
seen in this city. Apart from the political as
pect of the affair, the occasion was one in which
every citizen felt an interest, as it was design
ed to commemorate deeds of valor of which
every American is proud. The different Rough
and Ready Clubs of the city and of the parish
of Jefferson turned out in full strength, and at
an early hour in the evening the streets re
sounded with the music of the different divi
sions as they marched to their respective sta
tions.
At about half-past 8 o’clock, the procession
was formed in Canal-street, under the direction
of the Grand Marshal, C«|. J. B. Walton, as
sisted by Deputy Marshals Capt. P. N. Wood,
Victor Sure, Julian Neville and James Kalh
man. The procession then moved tip Camp
street in the following order: The Eirst Divi
sion composed of two city clubs (the Union
Rough and Ready of the Second and Third
Municipalities,) and the clubs of Lafayette,
Ereeport and Carrollton, with the friends of
Gen. Taylor from Gretna, Algiers and Me
chanicsville ; the Second Division, composed
of the clubs of the First Municipality: Third
Division, of the clubs of the Second Munici
pality ; and Fourth Division, of the clubs of the
Third Municipality. Banners, transparencies
of numerous colors, and torches were plenti
fully distributed throughout the procession, il
luminating and giving the streets through
which they passed a magnificent appearance
The mottoes of the Eirst Division were numer
ous and appropriate. Among them we no
ticed “Monterey, Buena Vista—Go it, Zack,”
and many others of a similar character. One
of the transparencies represented Mr. Polk
very politely offering “ that chair” to “ Zach.”
The Ereeport Club sported “ Old Whitey,”
“Taylor and Fillmore,” *• Kass kant kum it,”
&.C. At the head of the Second Division a
fine portrait of (sen. Taylor as he appeared at
the battle of Palo Alto, was carried. Numer
ous sleek looking coons, with head and tail up,
injunctions to Whigs to do their duty ; “No
two faces,” and other “fixins” appeared on
the transparencies of this division. On one
large transparency a representation of a four
mile heat between Cass and Taylor was given.
Cass being mounted on a chicken cock and
Taylor on a coon. The painter gave “the
animal” an excellent start on the canvass, ami
made the fowl to appear as if he never would
catch up. A large transparency, carried in the
Eourth Division, assured the public in flaming
capitals that the “ Old Sugar Slate would un
doubtedly support her own son, Gen. Zachary
Taylor.” A tent was mounted on a wagon at
the head of the Union Rough and Ready Club,
bearing the inscription, “Taylor’s Palace.”
In the Eourth Division appeared an elegant
portrait of Gen Taylor, decorated with gar
lands, and among a large number of transpa
rencies was one bearing the motto, “Neither
Lewis Philippe Cass nor Louis Philippe.”
Many of our democratic friends were conside
rably elated at the appearance of one of the
transparencies, representing a coon on a fence,
looking down with a liendi-h grin upon a heart
broken chicken, lying prostrate on the ground.
The aforesaid Democrats gently insinuated
that the coon was in a quandary and undecided
as to which side of the fence he would jump,
but the matter was satisfactorily explained to
us by a Whig friend, who states that his coon
ship was merely swinging on a gate at his ease.
The banners and transparencies throughout
were neat and appropriate, and many of them,
which we do not recollect, contained conside
rable humor. The high wind which prevailed
during the evening, made it very unpleasant
for those carrying torches, and prevented many
of the transparencies from showing to advan
tage. The individuals who carried the torches
were almost blinded by smoke amt dust, yet
they stuck to their posts like heroes, and the
procession was kept entire throughout its line
of march, which was as follows: Up Camp
street to Julia street, down Julia street to St.
Charles street, down St. Charles street through
Royal street, down Cassacalvo street to Spain
street, up Spain street to Moreau street, up
Moreau street through Conde and Chartres
street, up to Canal street, from whence it start
ed.
The utmost enthusiasm was manifested
throughout, and cheer after cheer for “Taylor
and Monterey,” “Taylor and Eillmore.” &c.,
rent the air at different points along the route
of the procession. Indeed the Taylor men
seemed to have been thoroughly aroused, and
after the procession was dismissed in Canal
street, many of the different clubs paraded the
streets to a late hour, cheering anything and
everything that had any Taylorism about it.
Os the banners, the Delta has the following
notice :
The transparencies contained pictures, mot
toes. party names and cries. We cannot enu
merate them ; some of them were in good,
whilst others were in bad taste. The old wea
ther-beaten lem, borne on a wagon, and in
scribed “Taylor's Palace,” was good. So
were several of the hits at Gen Cass. That in
which the General was represented as clinging
desperately to a sawyer in the Mississipi, and
screaming for help, was intended to hit off his
hostility to internal improvement. On another
the General was represented as changing his
nether garments, and over it was written
“Cass undergoing a change.’’ There was one,
too, in wiiich Gen. Cass is seen at a distance
from the White House, and eyeing it very anx
iously, but over it is a quotation from the Gen
eral's letter to the Chicago Convention, “cir
cumstances will prevent my attending.” But
it is vain to attempt to particularize the innu
merable p ctures ami devices by which party
ingenuity sought to convey the various oddi
ties and peculiarities of the canvass, and to hit
oil* the weak points of their adversaries. There
were coons of all sizes and descriptions, fat
coons ami lean coons, coons with long ami
coons with short tails, and coons rampant with
corks couchant; there were pictures of old
Zack, in all his various positions, and in all the
vast variety of features by which the old Hero
has been so much traduced As the procession
moved through our principal streets it was
'oudly cheered, anil greeted by ladies with the
waving of handkerchiefs.

The Election.
Wf. present such returns as have been re
ceived from the several Congressional Dis
tricts. A few days will enable us to form some
definite opinion of the result.
Wheat Culture in Georgia.
We slated a few days since that two large
merchant mills for the manufacture of Flour
were already contracted to be erected on the
Canal, in this city. The demand for wheat is
to be constant for the supply of these mills,
which, commencing with eight pairs of stones,
and having water to drive them with full force
every day in the year, must obviously consume
a large amount of grain. Should the supply
exceed the demand, other mills and more
grinding apparatus will be set in motion.
The culture of wheat has to encounter two
pretty serious difficulties in this region. One
is, a soil in which some of the things that nature
uses in forming the seeds of this plant exist in
small and insufficient quantity. All the con
stituent elements of wheat do not abound in
tiie soils of this portion of the State. Hence,
its cheap and successful culture implies the
remedy of this defect. The other obstacle, to
which allusion is made, is the liability of the
crop to injury by Hessian flies and other in
sects We venture a few suggestions on each
of these difficulties:
If we examine with the eye of a geologist
and chemist, any ’part of the habitable globe
where wheat is largely and easily cultivated,
limestone rocks, or soils that abound in this
mineral, derived from the debris of distant
rocks, will be found to prevail. There is not
an exception in any nation, only so far as lime
is artificially supplied to the earth in densely
populated regions, where it is lacking.
The seeds of this cereal plant are remarkable
for possessing, in a large degree, the elements
of solid bones, (phosphate of lime), as well as
those of flesh, brain and nerves. Almost any
sandy or clayey soil can be made to yield with
out additional fertilizers, fair crops of wheat
straw; but the large harvests of wheat— the
bread-forming seeds of the plant—will tie want
ing. The truth of this remark rests on a pretty
extensive experience in wheat-culture and re
search, in more regions than one. On soils
that lack lime, sulphur and phosphorus, which
enter largely into the composition of wheat,
farmers should practice a system of rotation,
in which this crop occurs only once in live
years. By this means, the expense of the crop
is very much reduced, whilst the harvest is
rendered far more abundant. Os all pursuits,
tillage most needs a regular system. This
system should be wisely adapted to the nature
and capabilities of the soil and climate—grow
ing such crops in succession as will best im
prove the land, ami give the largest profit io
the agriculturist. To accumulate the elements
of wheat im rhe surface soil, preparatory to
seeding with this grain, the previous culture of
a pea crop to be plowed in. rot. and serve as
food for growing wheat plants, will be found
highly advantageous If the peas are eaten by
hogs and other animals in the field, and their
droppings left on the ground, the manure,
drawn substantially from the air and subsoil by
the pea plants consumed by the stock, will give
m arly an equal gam to the wheat crop.
A crop of corn, consumed on the land where
it grows, or consumed elsewhere, and all the
manure returned to it. will materially increase
its productiveness. The same remark will ap
ply with nearly equal force to rye. barley, and
other cultivated plants.
To facilitate the extraction of the valuable
salts of lime, potash, soda and magnesia from
the su/«soiZ. where they most abound, we coi*
fidently recommend the use ot Dr. Bkoyles
subsoil plow, made in this city, and sold by the
Messrs. Carmichael, at four dollars \V heat
growers in Western New \ork have traced
the roots of this plant 16 and I" inches into
subsoiled land, in search of appropriate nour
ishment. Experience has fully established the
wisdom of Jeep and thorough tillage in making
•.his cron. It is useful to roll the surface with
a heavv roller, at the tune the seed is cov
ered. it is also important to cover the seed
at a uniform depth, which can hardly be done
with a harrow. Next to drills, which deposit
both the seed and its food in rows, and at the
proper depth, gang-plow and wheel-cultiva
tors are the best implements fur putting in seed
wheat. In the absence of all these, we should
prefer the small plow used in cotton and corn
culture, to the harrow, for covering seed wheat.
In the matter of thick or thin seeding, the u<e
of blue stone, lime, and brine in the prepara
t.on of seed, our country readers are supposed
Ito be well informed. To procure wood ashes,
i bones, charcoal and lime to be used in the pro
duction of this grain, requires facilities for that
! purpose, which will be very variable in differ
; ent localities- They are valuable ; but one can
buy gold at too dear a rate. Get them ifyou
, can. We have already intimated that lime is
! deficient in most soils in Central Georgia.
Tie best preventive of the ravages of the
Hessian fly :? late seeding To be of any ser
vice in that regard, a whole neighborhood or
community -ho.i'd a : delay sowing till the sea
son of the fly has past. In New York it is suf
ficient to put off seeding t.” the first of Octo
ber. Although we have collected wheat plants
on which the eggs of this insect had been depos
ited and hatched them a: maturity n tins State,
vet we have no knowledge as to the latest pe
riod that the second generation will be on wing
in this latitude. We shall examine ah the whea
fields ;a this vicinity as the plants come up, to
see how late in the season the fly prevails—
Drawings of this destructive insect and its
larva*, and an account of its habits and transfor
mations will be found in the Southern Cultira
tor.
As an encouragement to planters to sow
more wheat, we beg to inform them, not only
that the mills in this city will require 500,000
bushels next year; but that Mr. N. B. Moore,
of .Augusta, harvested 34 bushels of wheat this
season from one of seed. Did we not believe
that the crop can be made profitable, in a pro
per system of rotation, we should be very far
from saying a word in its favor. By skilfully
uniting grain culture with cotton growing, and
stock-raising with both, more money can be re
alized from any given amount of capital and
area of soii, whilst the latter will be con
stantly becoming more productive and valuable.
Castor oil candles, warranted not to run, are made
in Illinois, and sold at 25 cents, per pound* The cas
ter oil bean is easily cultivated. — N. (J. Crescent.
The plant from the seeds of which castor oil
is obtained, and much used for generating light
as well as medicine, can be profitably grown in
Georgia. Its culture is simple, audits oil and
wax or stearine (used for making candles) are
easily extracted. Whale oil is becoming scarce,
and that of vegetables and lard oil must take
its place. All oil, whether procured from fish,
swine or other animals, is primarily formed in
plants, as in the seeds.of maize, cotton, flax,
&c. To organize this valuable compound of
combustible elements, the Castor Bean is one
of the most profitable of all seeds.

The Sierra Madre Movement*
By the arrival of the Portland we have the
first number of the Corpus Christi Star, dated
Sept. 12th. It is published by Mr. J. 11. Peo
ples, the enterprising pioneer of the American
press in Mexico. This first number of his new
paper is of such interest as to be worth repub
lishing entire, but we are constrained to set lim
its to our extracts. And first in regard to an
expedition which left, here a few weeks since
for the “Buffalo Hunt, ” we have the follow
ing information :
On the wrong trail. —On Saturday eve
ning last, the 9th inst., the schooner Col. De
ll ussy arrived at St. Josephs with about two
hundred men of the order of “Ousel Owls,”
destined on a “Buffalo Hunt,” but as none
of the animals were to be found in these dig
gins, they came to the conclusion of returning
to New Orleans, from whence they came.—
They were not only on the wrong trail, but out
of season. We sympathise with them in their
disappointment, but the only consolation we

The Star also gives the following note from
Capt. Besancon to Col. Kinney in regard to this
expedition, which explains itself:
Corpus Christi, Sept. 11. 1648.
Dear Sir— l regret exceedingly having brought
down men for the purpose of engaging in what is and
has been called the Sierra Madre expedition. Had I
been aware of your own opinions, and no’, relied upon
Madam Rumor, 1 should have been Gaved the expense
of subsistence and transportation of a large body of
men.
However, I have nojust cause ofcoinplaint against
you. From the conversation I had with you upon my
arrival here, 1 became satisfied that your name had
been u.-ed by others to an extent not authorized by
yourself.
Notwithstanding this slight misunderstanding, I
trust that we part friends.
Yours, truly, L. A. BESANCON.
Col. 11. L. Kinney.
What Col. Kinney’s views arc of the Sierra
Madre prospect, we are told by himself in the
following letter to the Star:
Corpus Christi Sept. 9. 1848.
J. 11. Peoples, Esq. —Sir: For the last two or
three weeks 1 have noticed in many of the papers re
ceived here, that my name is mentioned as a leader,
or the leader of an American expedition, having for
its object the separation of the Northern Provinces
from Mexico. However much I may be flattered by
the complimentary notice to myself, which has gener
ally accompanied the articles alluded to, I cannot but
take exception to their general tenor, and would be
lacking in those attributes which characterize a good
citizen, if I were to remain silent. Our country is at
peace with Mexico, and it certainly would be a breach
of neutrality toorganize a force in cur limits to invade
any portion of her territory, and 1 certainly would
not, with my consent, lend my name for such a pur
pose.
It is the desire of all good men to see their neigh
bors prosperous and happy, and when they are not
so, it is laudable to assist in rendering them so. This
may bo done i:i different ways: with physical force
if necessary, with pecuniary aid, or with wholesome
counsel.
In the States alluded to I have many friends, whom
I would be pleased to see in a happy and prosperous
condition, and if the revulsions which have so long
characterized their country render it necessary, in
their own minds, to separate from the mother Repub
lic, and seek to alleviate their condition by declaring
and seeking to maintain themselves independent ofit,
I would say amen, and would render them such aid
as lay in rny jower, and would applaud any others
who would pursue a similar course. And when the
people of Northern Mexico are convinced that their
system of government is illiberal an I oppressive, and
that a change would be conducive to their welfare,
and they make a formal declaration of independence,
then, and not till then, have their neighbors the right
to interfere.
Since my return from Vera Cruz to this place, the
accounts received from Tamauli|ns, Nuevu Leon, <&<*.,
are more fluttering to the prospects of the citizens.—
The republican manner in which Herrera is adminis
tering the Government bears such a favorable con
trast to the anarchy which reigned during the terms
of Santa Anna and Paredes, that the people are much
better contented ; and if no change takes place, and
the measures which Herrera has undertaken be car
ried out v their social system wiil so approximate to
our own, that the people u ay not find it necessary to
seek a change.
Under these circumstances, how impolitic, how in
jurious, how disastrous might it prove were their
neighbors to interfere, are! by some overt act involve
them in an issue with their Government, which they
may not desire, and which they may not be prepared
f<r.
To let such publications as are now going the rounds
of the | upers. and in which my name is and has been
so neiierally connected, pass without notice, would be
a tacit acknowledgement of my concurrence, which is
not the case. The rec- nt movement io New Orleans,
in winch a number of men have been resrularly en
rolled for the expedition in question, was one of the
most ha>ty and short-sight: d affairs of the day, and as
my name was more or less used in connection with it,
I most unequivocally assert that I had no more to do
with it than Herrera himself; that I had no right to
act in such business, nor do I think any other person
in the city had. There being, then, no one authorized
by the people of the Northern Provinces, shows the
move to be premature and unfortunate unfortunate,
because, should the people interested in the govern
ment of mat section of country seek hereafter their
neighbors’ assistance in time of need, the present move
ment would tend to impede their progress.
In conclusion, I "ill say that 1 am not nor have I
been connected with the movement in question and
my friends will oblige me by disabusing the public
mind on the subject

Ca<s in Michigan.—Another Prop Gone.
lion. F. S. Littlejohn, for many vears a
member of the Michigan Legislature, has re
nounced hunkerism ami come out for tree
soil. He was the leader of the Democratic
partv in the Legislature, is a man of great in
fluence in the northwestern part of the State,
and a most eloquent and effective speaker.
The way he dissolved his connection with the
pro-slavery party is thus described by the De
troit Daily Advertiser :
Mr. Littlejohn happening on business to the
town of Granville, near Grand Rapids, about
a week since, the Cass men immediately got
up some hand bills calling a mass meeting at
Granville, on Tuesday evening last, announc
ing Mr. L. in large letters as the speaker.
Knowing that his eloquence would draw a
large crowd. The meeting assembled, and
one universal shout went up tor Mr. L. to
take the stand. Mr. L very cooly rose and
[ announced that he repudiated Lewis Cass, the
Michigan Doughface and Northern traitor —
could n't go him no how—did’nt wish to dis
turb the harmony of the meeting—would like
to be excused if they had no particular objec
tions.
Di vth of American Charge d’Af
• faires. —Letters have been received in Wash
' sngton from Mr. Bancroft, at London, and
General Armstrong at Liverpool, slating that
Dr. Martin, the- United Srates Charge a: Rome
had delivered h-s credentials to the Pope, and
met with a cordial reception: but that he had
been taken violently ill of fever on the 25th,
and d«ed, it is supposed, of Apoplexy, on the
28th of August.
Doe Face.—Many people are familiar with
the above term, who are ignorant of its origin
as well as of its correct orthography. To such
the following explan v.:on from the N. Y. Atlas,
wprove acceptable :
Doe Face — The term “ dough face ” should
’ be written ifoz/ace. John Randolph, who first
' uttered the stigma, meant by it to satirize a cl t<s
i of politicians who are like the doe. or female
' deer, which is frightened by seeing its own
t face reflected in a streamlet. So ” Old Roan
< oke ’ himself said when appealed to after
! wards.

immense fortune in speculations or in extra
charges against the government. The New

Loss oft lie Propeller Goliat h.
We published on Tuesday a rumor that the
propeller Goliath was destroyed by fire, on
Lake Huron, with all onboard. From farther
reports received in the Western papers of this
morning, there is scarcely a doubt of the cor
rectness of the story, in its most melancholy as
pect.
From the Cleveland Herald, Sept. 25.
News reached this city on Saturday even
ing of the destruction of the propeller Goliath,
on Lake Huron, on Friday morning last. It
is painful to say that more recent intelligence
confirms the first report. The statement is
that about 4 o’clock on the morning above
mentioned, the Goliath, when off Point aux
Barqties in Lake Huron, bound for Sault St.
Mane with a cargo of merchandize, comprising
about 100 kegs of powder for the miners in
trie copper regions, took fire, and with a terri
ble explosion was almost instantaneously de
stroyed.
The fearful disaster was first announced on
the authority of a man at Point aux Barques,
who saw the lire and heard the explosion. But
this morning. Capt. Sweet, of the propeller
Republic, arrived hero from above, and says
that he yesterday saw Capt. Fuller of the
schooner Spartan, who was within five miles
of the Goliath at the time of the fire, distinctly
saw it and heard the explosion, the force of
which was so intense that it shook every tim
ber in his vessel. He was uuabled to reach the
wreck. We believe this is all th -I is at present
known of the disaster. We learn that there
were but few if any on board besides the cap
tain and crew. The deepest solicitude is felt
in regard to their fate, and there is hope ex
pressed that some may have been saved. If
the tire broke out in a part of the propeller
away from the powder, those on board may
have immediately taken to the boats ami aban
doned her in time to escape the explosion
We await further intelligence with the utmost
anxiety.
A New Suspension Bridge.—The Niagara
Chronicle of the I Ith. says it understands that
the project of constructing a suspension bridge
across the Niagara at Queenstown, is again re
vived, and this time with everv prospect of be
ing carried out. .Mr. Ellet. the engineer of the
bridge at the Falls, undertakes to construct it
for SIO,OOO. and will himself take one-fourth
of the stock. This leaves $7,500 to be subscri
bed for—half of which has been already taken
up on the American side, and a large portion
of the other half on the Canada side of the
river. If no unforeseen difficulties arise, the
bridge will be ready for use by September of
next year.
Potato Disease.—The Messenger, publish
ed at Ashville. North Carolina, says: “We
learn from gentlemen from different parts of
this county, that the potatoes are pretty gener
ally affected with this disease.
In one of the rooms of the Smithsonian In
stitute is to be erected the philosophical ma
chinery presented to the institution by •Dr.
II ire. of Philadelphia, and worth $’25,000. The
' hemic.d lecture room, above, has a groined
ceiling, is heavily ribbed and with foliage at the
intersections of the ribs. The cloister has pil
lars. heavily capped with every variety of
fohage. The window glass, in the shape of
the diamond, fine crown, was imported from
England, i ' inner doors are of Georgia
pine, varnished : the outer are bronzed, orna
minted *with old Norman hinges and shields.
The west wing, winch is nearly completed, is
highly ornamented, but of a heavier and more
substantia! structure than the east. The most
distinguished feature is the apsis, a semicircular
projection, with vaulted roof and pillars.
Disc 'very or a New Satellite.—We
were present at the Cambridge Observatory
on the evening ot the 22d. at the discovery of
another satellite to the planet Saturn, making
the eighth. Win. f ranch Bond, the eminent
astronomer of Cambridge Vmv ersity, and his
gon and assistant. George Bond, were the for
tunate discoverers Both of these gentlemen
are devoted to their labors, and have already
conferred lasting honor upon the sublime
science which they nightly explore. The two
last satellites to Saturn were discovered by
Herschel!, and the discovery was hailed bv the
astronomers as the appearance ot a new conti
nent would be by men in pursuit of a new
world.
Cambridge has no greater attraction than its
observatory. The telescope there is very
much the largest in the country, and the one
in Russia —the largest in Europe—is only like
to it in size, and inferior to it in power. Both
were manufactured at Munich, and are
among the wonders ot Europe and America.
The telescope. Observatorv. and grounds at
Cambridge, costing some were the
fruits of Boston munificence; and among the
liberal donations since, has been one of SIOO.-

Ancient Building Dfstk yed —Ata fire in
New Haven. Conn ,on the 14th inst.. among
other b i idings destroyed was the •• Atwater
House.” the oldest budding in the City, having
been erected 210 vears ago, by Jonathan At
water. one of the first settlers of the town. It
was built of timber cut on the ground where it
stood, and was for many years the only tavern
in the place. During the Revolutionary war
it was the resort of the patriots and military
men. for council and ad vics. It is a singular
fact that the property has remained in the fami
ly of the man who built it w the present day.
From the N. O. Picayune, ult.
Arrival of the British Steamer Trent--
Very Late from Mexico.
The Royal West India Mail steamer Trent
arrived at Ship Island on Tuesday morning last,
from VeraCruzand Tampico. Her mails and
passengers for this city were transferred to the
Bolivar, which got aground, and her passen
gers did not get up to town till last evening.
The Trent after performing her voyage to
Vera Cruz and Tampico, upon returning from
the latter port was prevented by a severe nor
ther from entering Vera Cruz for some days,
whereby her passage was delayed. She got a
way from Vera Cruz the morning' of the 20th
inst. She had on board in specie $1,502, 00,
ol which $102,000 was for this port.
Our papers by this arrival are to the 19t i in
stant from Vera Cruz and to the 16th fiom the
city of Mexico. As represented to us by an
intelligent gentleman who came passenger on
the Trent, the conditio :of the country is com
paratively tranquil the surface. There
have been no political pronunciamentos. We
arr told, however, that the Santanistas and the
Puroshave united their political fortunes, and
will make an effort to overthrow the present
Government. The return of Santa Anna is
openly talked of and expected. Our inform
ant assures us that he shall be surprised if the
Ex-President be not again invested with su
preme power within three months. The strength
of the present Administration consists in its
command of money. It has no moral or polit
ical weight. It is represented to have yet at
its command nearly a million of money, but
this is not generally concei ed. So long as its
means of paying the army hold out, so long it
may be considered pretty secure, and no lon
ger. Such are the representations made to us
on this subject.
The country is suffering extremely from the
unsafe state of the public r »ads. They are in
fested by robbers in every direction. Travel
lers maks provision for being robbed, as a
thing of course; they carry with them money
expressly t * satisfy the rapacity of the banditti
of the highway, content if they escape all other
indignities.
Our readers areaware that the trade in to
bacco is a monopoly in exico, which is farm
ed out by the Government. It was abolished
by Gen. Scott, but has been resumed by the
present Government, and Manning &. Mackin
tosh are the principal contractors for it at pre
sent. There is an attempt now making by
the State Government of Vera Cruz and Puebla
to have this monopoly done away with, and the
growth of tobacco and the trade in it declared
free. Other States are expezted to follow in
support of these two States, and it is believed
they will succeed in abolishing the odious mo
nopoly.
Lieut. Tilden, formerly of the U. S. Army,
came over on the Trent, and went ashore at
Pass Christian. Our readers cannot need to
be reminded of the deeds by which he brought
deep infamy upon himself in the city of Mexi
co. He was compelled by the Government in
that country to leave.
Paredes is still in Mexico, and said to be en
deavoring to procure a pardon for himself. It
is thought that he will be successful—that he
will not even be subjected to the inconvenience
of a.temporary exile.
Foreigners, we are told, are treated with
much more consideration in Mexico since the
war than they were formerly. The Americans
share particularly in this increase of regard.
D. Luis de la Rosa has been nominated and
confirmed by the Senate as Minister Plenipo
tentiary to the United States. Senor Pina y
Cuevas has been appointed Minister of the
Treasury. 11 is first act was to appoint a com
mission to treat of a settlement or arrangement
of the national debt. He is represented as re
pudiating the acts ofhis predecessors in regard
to the notorious case of the five millions of
bonds hypothecated to secure $600,000, and
they are to be turned over to the proper tribu
nals for trial.
The celebration of the 16th of September,
the birth day of Mexican Independence, ap
pears to have been general throughout the
country. We find it continually referred to
by the press, and we have a copy of one oration
pronounced at the capital. *
The amnesty was declared at Huejutla on
the 10th of .August in favor of all the insurgent
Indians who should make their submission
within sixty days.
We cull the following item? from the N. O.
Crescent City:
The Governor and Military Commandant of
Puebla, have united for the prosecution of the
robbers on the National Road. They have
placed a troop of fifty men at the several points
frequented by the bandits, and the Monitor
hopes by this means the public will be secured
from their depredations.
The Mexican Government have been form
ing a civil and criminal code, and it is in con
templation to bestow the title of Bien merito,
del Estado de Mrjico on Senor Vilella, and fur
ther. lorewan. him with SIOO,OOO for his la
bor in compiling the code. El Siglo however
denies this and says it is a false report.
Don Antonio Icaza has resigned his place as
Minister of Finance, and Otero h s been ap
pointed in his stead.
It was rumored in the city of Mexico on the
9th that Paredes had arrived secretly at the
capital. El Monitor says that there is no lon
ger the slightest danger of any evil arising from
Ins machinations, as he is generally detested by
all persons and parlies.
The conducta which left Mexico on the 17th
ult., wi h $2,000,001 , arrived safely at Vera
Cruz on the 3d. Much astonishment is ex
pressed that it was not robbed.
El Monitor mentions a letter from Tampico,
which says that the disturbers of public order
in that place are conspiring for its annexation
to the United States. Among those accused is
I). Francisco Cervantes, who had le’tfor New
Oi leans. with lhe intention of communicating
upon the subject with Col. Deßussy, who it is
said is raising men to aid the enterprise. It
was said also that the Governor of Tamaulipas
had received letters upon the same subject from
Col. Deßussy, and that Gen. Francisco Vital
Fernandez was also connected in some way
will) the movement. The 3d and 10th battal
ions of infantry and some cavalry had been or
deied to Tampico, which, with the force alrea
dy there, would amount to more than 1500
men.
A new paper has been established in Toluca
called El Federal Ilcpublicano.
Revolutionary projects seem notyetto have
been abandoned in .Mexico, if we may judge
from the following, which was found posted
upon the corners in the Capital—
“ Mexican Nation, there is yet time for
hope.” - Long live the Military Dictator
ship!” “Long live the valiant Gen. Santa
Anna.” “Long live religion and l\\e puros !”
• Death to the republic and the States which
form the cursed Confederation!”
Zacatecas.— This State is in a very distressed
condition on account of the incursions of the Ca
manche Indians. There are also many abuses
perpetrated by the clergy, which Government
is called upon to rectify. Peons, it is said, can
scarcely earn from three to four bitts per day,
and when they wish to marry they are charged
25 or 30 reals, and not being able to obtain the
money, the whole marriage ceremony is in ma
ny cases dispensed w ith.
The State of Durango is also harrassed by
the Indians. They had attacked many towns
and villages, killing and robbing numbers of
the inhabitants. On the 10th ult. a large par
ty of Americans arrived at Mapimi. en route
for New Mexico. They consisted of a thousand
cavalry, with five pieces of artillery, and some
families, with two hundred wagons.
Chiapas.— The Governor of this State has
assured the Supreme Government that the re
ports of revolutionary movements within its
limits were within foundation. He says the
State is well affected towards the Govern
ment.
Guanajuata.— Senor Lorenzo Arellano. Go
vernor of this State, has resigned on account
of ill health.
San Luis — The Governor of the State. Don
Julian delos Reyes, has been accused before
the Congress of the State, by Dun Ramon Pas
tor Oriedo, one of those implicated in the con
spiracies of Paredes.
The nomination of Don Luis de la Rosa as
Minister Plenipotentiary to the United States
has been confirmed by the Senate.
The Governor of Yucatan has addressed a
communication to the General Government,
in which lie expresses the gratitude of the \ u
catecos. fur the aid which has been given them,
and impresses upon the President the necessity
of continuing it.
Two new’ papers have been establish ?d in
the capital, one called La Paluca. and the oth
er El Espa not.
Senor Ignacio Jaregni. who some time since
was arrested as a conspirator, has been releas

On the 17th inst., the funeral ceremonies of
the victims in the late war with the United
States, were celebrated with great solemnity
in the citv of Mexico.
The people of the Stale of Puebla com
plain greatly of the inattention to education,
the schools have all been shut fur five months.
U'e are informed that many of the San Pa
tricio deserters are wandering about Vera Cruz,
in a state of extreme destitution, neither Amer
icans or Mexicans being willing to aid them.
Lieut. Tilden was a passenger on the steamer.
He had a purport for Havana from the Mexi
can government, and took passage for that
port: but refused to land there. He came on
and landed at Pass Christian and is supposed
to have come to this city in the Mobile boat.
Guatemala.— lt is evident that the govern
ment of thi- Republic approaches its downfall.
The department of Chuquitnula has pronounc
ed for the revolution, declaring that it will not
obev the government as long as Congress is
. Ccngress had been summon-
ed to meet in order to arrest the insurrection,
and a provisional government, composed ot
three members, was formed. Four thousand
insurgents were marching on the capital. Ihe
wife of Carrera has fled’to Comitan, in Mexi
co, with General Antonio Palomo, and Carre
ra had asked permission for himself and some
'of ills adherents o cater the same city. The
insurrection was caused by the violent pro
ceedings of General Palomo, who entered the
hall of Congress and arrested one of the mem
bers in spite of the legal inviolability of their
persons, saying that he acted by the command
of Carrera, who, however, denied having giv
en any such orders.
A New Move of the Democrats and their
“Natural Allies” to Defeat Old Zack*
The New York Tribune states upon authori
ty in which it confides, that the *• leading Hunk
ers (Cass men) of New York meditate the
withdrawal of their Electoral ticket at the polls
in favor of the Regular Democracy which is
pledged to Van Buren and Adams, thus ceas
ing to distract the Democracy, so far as
Presidency is concerned.”
John Van Bure i some time since inquired
how long Cass would continue to hold on and
distract the Democracy? If this statement of
the Tribune is to be credited, the day of sur
render in tlie Empire State, at least, is not
distant.
But what a confession is here implied ? The
Free Soil, Abolition, Van Buren party is the
Regular Democracy of New York! And to
what desperate expedients are the Democracy
driven to defeat Gen. Taylor!
It is expected or hoped by this movement to
deprive him of New-York and thereby defeat
an election by the people, and transfer it to
the House of Representatives. And men, who
call themselves democrats, are the parties to
this proceeding ! The lust of office and Fede
ral gold will carry some men to great lengths,
and involve them in all sorts of intrigues.—
But this scheme, though well laid, is too refin
ed to operate successfully on so broad a thea
tre,
We congratulate the democracy of Virginia
on this promised accession to their party ! We
felicitate them upon the evidence it affords of
the waning condition of their cause ! It has been
ascertained that by a regular and fair election
before the people Gen. Taylor cannot be de
feated. Hence this resort to unfair, indirect
and underhand proceedings. The election
must be taken from the people and put into the
hands ot Congressional intriguers, who will be
more ready than the people to select the least
deserving.— Rich. Whig.
The election for Electors of President and
Vice President, takes place simultaneously
throughout the Union, on Tuesday the 7th day
of November next.

AUGUSTA MARKET.
Weekly Report Tuesday, P. M.
COTTON.—Our market for the past week up to
Saturday was very animated, and quite a lively de
mand existed, and although there was no advance
claimed, yet prices gradually stiffened as it usually
docs in an active market, but ’the receipt of accounts
on that day checked operations, and the business
since then has been more moderate at little easier rates.
The sales of the week amount to 2,652 bales, at the
following rates : Bat 4 J ; 17 at 4J ; I‘2 at 4J ; 23 at
4|; 194 at 5 ; 131 at 54 ; 67 at 5| ; 37 at 5 5-16 ;
328 at 5g ; 28 at 5 7-16; 360 at 54 ; 22 at 5 9-16 ;
519 a 54; 87 at 5 11-16; 76 at 54 ; and 61 bales
at 6 cents. We quote Inferior to Ordinary 4| a4" ;
Good Ordinary to Middling 5 a 5} ; Good Middling
54; Middling Fair 5j ; Fair 5} ; Goud Fair and
Choice 6 cents.
We have made up our weekly statement this week
more fully than we have been able to do it hereto
fore this season, as our correspondents have generally
commenced theirs. By a perusal of them it will be
seen that the’receipts so far this year amount to 84,-
463 bales, against 23,197 bales same time last year,
showing a total increase of 46,271 bales. This in
crease, it will be seen, is at all points, and it may be
looked for for some time to come, as our planters have
seldom had as favorable a season f< r picking as
the present has been.
C ur Telegraphic accounts, received per the steamer
America, has checked the feeling of confidence in a
restoration of trade having settled on a surer basis,
by the accounts of the difficulty in Ireland, and the
continued unsettled state of the continent of Europe.
The trade of Great Britain in our staple, Cotton, has
been very encouraging for some tune past, and the low
rdcs at which it has ruled, has caused an increasing
trade and from the favorable accounts received from
the manufacturing districts. We had some faint hope
that these accounts would have brought some slight
advance in prices, but we now fear that low rates will
still continue to rule for some time to come. The
stock in Great Britain on the 16th was 557,630
bales, against 395,320 bales at same time last year.
The consumption weekly was 26,730 bales, against
23,430 bales last year. Speculators from Ist of Jan
uary to the 16th of September took, this year 35,750,
whilst last year they took 266,730 bales.

GRAlN.—There has been but little doing in Corn
or any other description. The sales of Corn are con
fined almost altogether t> the city trade. Prices re
remain at 45 cents and .'ales difficult to make.
FLOUR.No change :n the demand for this arti-
G> -
per bbl. f>rluis, and good brands retail at 56 per bbl.
B \ ' O . -1 ' ■
the demand and prices for common parcels remain
dull at 5| cents fur hog r Good Hams are
scarce and sales have been made this week at 8a 9
cents for several lots from the country.
DRY GOODS, HARDWARE, &c.—Quite a
heavv business has been doing by our wholesale deal
ers w; h the merchants frstr tha interior, and the
handsomely assorted stock of Dry Gxxls whicii our
merchants are daily opening offer inducements for
pur-bases to be made in rbis market.
GROCERIES.— The rise in the river has added
largely te our already heavy stock of Groceries, and
our merchants appear to be well recompensed ior the
large stocks which they have brought out by ths
heavy business which has been doing for the past
week.
BAGGING AND ROPE. —Prices of both these
articles are stiffening, and Gunny Bagging is held
firm at 20 cts.; Kentucky 18 to 19 cis. Bale Rope
is also improving in price, and 10 to 11 cts. are now
the asking and selling prices. The supply of belli
these articles is quite moderate, but prices are as
low in our market as on the seaboard.
SALT. —There is an improvement in the price of
Sack Salt, and $1.75 per Sack is now generally ob
tained and Bulk Salk is still’ at 50 cts.
EXCHANGE —Checks on the North remain at
J per ct. prern. We look, as soon as Cotton moves
off more freely, to see prices lower.
FREIGHTS.—Our river is now in good boating
order, having risen since yesterday upward of five
feet. We notice at the wharves, this evening, the
steamer H. L. Cook, Amory Sibley and Tenncsse,
all with full loaded boats. The shipments of cotton
to Savannah will be heavy this week. Freights re
main at 50 cents per bale. The shipments to Char
leston during the past week have been very heavy.
Rate of freight $1 per bale.

CHARLESTON, Oct. 3. Cotton.— The trans-,
actions in this article on Friday last reached 527
bales at full prices. The accounts, however, by the
steamer America published in our paper ot Saturday,
has unsettled the market; and the transactions on
that day and Monday most generally, turned in favor
of the purchaser, in many instances to an extent of
1-16 to }c. The transactions in the three days com
prise 1350 bales at prices ranging from sto 6 5-16.
The bulk of the sales, however, were within the
range of 6 a 6 3-16.
Rice.— Very little has been done in Rice since our
former report. The principal sate was a tot of 150
tierces prime, yesterday, at s3} per 100.
