The Minister oi Murine had e eived accounts
from tr. • rear admiral ccmmanamg the French
naval division in the Chinese seas. The Despatch
is dated July 18th. It mentions an attack by a
united French, Portuguese and American force,
o.*j sixteen r iraticsJ junk; 4 , two of which wore ta
ken and t rest dispeivcd.
Spain.— The Madrid journals of the 18th and
17th have arrived. No a’lution in made to the
search after M. Soule, mentioned ia the private
t*/©graphic despatch from Bayonne. The capital
of S: an is rep r » aented by the private letters to bo
tranquil as regards the surface of things, but the
government ifns to contend ugaiust both Republi
can and Carlist intrigues, and doubts are expressed
of tho firmness and energy of Rnpartero. The
Republicans in Madrid, although not very name
rou-, uro very active; and as long as French potiti
ctl refugees uro *»lo*vcd to reside there, this party,
although numericady weak, will be strong in in
fl icnco. It appears, however, that tho Bfanish
government is aware of its danger, and has com
menced measures cf precaution. On the 16:h,
says one of the letters from Madrid, throe well
Icaown refugees were ordered b» quit .dadnd, and
it was expected that the expulsion of perions of
this kind wonid f-oon become general.
Wo lerni from Madrid that the town of
in Aragon, has been destroyed by an inundation,
caused by tho burn Ling ~*t a water spout, formed
n «ho neighboring lake of Gallooantu. This place
o n tai ns 2,500 inhabilanla. Tho offsets in tho
-hops were carried away, water wua sabsiituted
for wine—in fine everything v»as destroyed. A
girl of 20 years of age was carried off by tho cur
rent, and many children and grown up person?
were missing. An infinite number of animals had
perished.
Cholera is in Madrid but doe* not spread rapid

Tho Naoirn states that large sums of money are
being distributed to keep tho people in a statu cf
agitation—insinuates that Mr. Fierro Soule '»« the

tho charge, to come tor .vard and publicly deny it.
Gubick.—A private letter from Athens, of 12th,
nouounoes that the Greek Government had dia
l> «tcaed to Constantinople, M. Barozz;. Into Greek
Consul at Adrianoplo, furnished with letters to
Ridscbid Pasoh&and to the representatives of the
foroign powei*s, The Greek Government acknow
ledges its many offences against tho Snltan, and
appeals to his generosity. Greece proposes to
graut a treaty ol commerce to the Forte, a* an in
demnity for the !ato insurrection. A simi'ar trea
ty was proposed a four years since, bat King Otho
refusod hiy signature. Tao present treaty defines
the boundaries ot the two Bt»tes, and will conse
quontly force Otho to roknowledge tho existing
limits of Turkey, in a more formal muuner than ho
has hitherto done.
The King of Greece having been rooueated to
allow 2,000 French troops to land at Athens, gave
a peremptory rofua>l, and threatened to quit his
palace should tho Ministry come to an opposite
opinion. The matter was under the deliberation
cf the government when line acßount’came away.
The War.—Operations in the Black Sxa.—
Measures havo been takeu, it Hpp*are, to forward
to Europe, as rapidly a3 possible, the news of the
expedition to the Crimea. Light steamers are to
transport news to Kustonjo, wh*re courie s will be
In readiness to carry the intelligence on to Cron
s'radt by Czernavode, Sloboaia, aod Plojetschli.
The intelligence will be sent on then by telegraph
to Vienna. Bebastorol is about 250 English miles
from JCustenoje, and a iight steamer cun pass the
distance io fonr and twenty Hours. The couriers
go at the r«to of nine miles the hour, and thus the
laud journey can bo made in from 80 to 86 hours,
so that nows from Sebastopol can be hud in Fais in
four days.
Th* Black £ta and tun Cmmxa.—Telegraphic
i ccouiits have been received by the English Go
vernm?Rt from Viennuand Booharent, announcing
th*it the allied loioea, cor»BXing r f LB OtK) English,
25,00(1 French, and S.ooO Tnrkieh troeps. landed
on the 14th a’ Fupatoria without meeting any re
ftifttance, aud had oo i.moticed inarching ou ttebtw
topol.
A number of transport/! had returned to Varna
lor tho Fronch reserve of 14,000 men. Home of
tbe allied ships* n*e lying r IT the fortress of Kinburn
and islands of Tenlra, near Odessa, with thoob
iyct of fnterooptirg any Russian rcinfoicements
intended lor tho Crimea.
On tho 12th a powder magatf.no exploded at
renkop, killing a great many Russians, and
damaging two of the -.tlliod ehips.
It is statod that while a portion of tho British
fleet was at Ballsohik, embarking troops, the
Russians succeeded in sending a strong rein
forcecxi*>nt by soa from Odessa to &©baatopo!.
They crept o ;t oKhe port by shallow lighiera and
firjais use.’ for loading core on the Danube, —
w«re*owed closo along shore and thus ♦“icmsd
the a'V.ed cnrwrs. It is added that a Russia??,
eteamor camo to the head of Baltsohik ba> wi*.il3
tho fleet*! were tbero, anu Sseut in two boats to
reconnoitre.
Since August 24th Prince Mcnsohikoff has been
in iccotsani aciivity between Perekhop and Se
bcetopol, oigauizing a levy cn masse.
Accounts from Constantinople, of September
10ih, bring nows ot greit importance, if true.
The statement is that the Czar had consented to
accept tho four propositions of tho Western Pow
era, and that on armistice would be the oonee
qrjenec. It wus suid that on the morning of the
r i i h the Porte and Austrian intornanoio received
despatches signifying tho Caar’s willingness to
accept the four propositions as tho basis ot negotia
tions. The same day a steamer was despatched to
learn the whereabouts or th© allied expedition,
and on tbo succeeding day, the B‘h, another a
Mnall steamer colled the “ Danube, ,T was sent with
despatches to the fleet supposed by that
time to be at Serpent’s Isle. As the steamer was
small end tho weather boisterous, it could not
arrived before the expedition disembarked.
This important nows is yot unconfirmed, but is
positively averted.
The Principalities.—English engineers are now
surveying .ue country between Rufscvaand Kus
• endje, the Porte having consented to the con-
Htructton of the canal from tho Black Sea to the
Danube at th(*o points.
The Ruslans have destroyed all means of eom
•nnuicaiion on t!»e Pruth, near Galatz and Kagul,
: -o Umt t o small time will be required to repair tho
{ ‘h-Mtmc-ion they I-avo caused.
The Position of Austria —lt is statod that the
j repro&cntativLS onhe a lied powers in Turkey, us
we: as the Ottoman Government itself, have re i
i ceived from the Austrian Government anew and
! formal dec aration of the resolution to prevent
Russia from sVjmptieg to take »he adventeges of j
: the allied forces by resuming cffacsive measures •
i on tho Danube, niid the cou munication intimated i
| that Austria would sustain that prevention by
i L ”co of aims. This statement is said to have been
{ mado just at the lime of the departure of the Erg
lish and Trench troops. Thus, although Austria
at present abstains from actual war against Russia,
virtually, by an oocupistion of the ground left be
j hind, she contributes to strerg*.hen the force?*
v c ; i *he allied powers are enabled to throw upon
| the Crime*.
It has bc;in reported, (but the report must
received with caution) that Russia bad proposed to
Austria a joint protectorate over the Principalities,
excluding all participation by the Westernrowara.
Foreign Market.
Liverpool, Sopt. 22.—There has been a fair de
mand for upon tho whole duiii g tho week.
| but more particularly within the last two or tbret
-1 days, although the trade s ill confine their purcha
; ses within narrow iimits, aud have for several
( weeks past taken much le.**s out of the market than
j the actual consumption. The business for export
! continues pretty good, whilst on t peculation but
tew transactions have taken place. Some extensive
failures both here and in Manchester hare do

j have been expected, locking at the Urge stock and
! recent large imports; and although American de
scriptions are freely vffjred, and holders very wil
I ling sellers, there is but little alteration in prices

j than 116 i. per lb. from the prices current a fort
night ago. Brazils are in moderate request, and
; prices without change. Egyptians are still heavy
of sale. Bursts are in fair reqaest, and the eoic

Cap tain B iker furnishes sime further informa
tion as to tfco effect of t* o late severe gale on the (
Texas coast. Ho coufi'ms the account of tho total *
loss of the schooners Alida and S. Bridon on t c <
reef at the entranoe to Matagorda B»y, withbotli
the entire or ewe; also of the loss of the U. 8. J

saved. «
The achoonor Emma Deßusssy, before reported I
us having drifted loses and lost, her masts, was *
fallen iu with and towed into Matagorda Bay by c
the Fashion, on the 26th clt. s
The Fashion, as before reported, towed tho 0
aohooner Mustang up the bay. She rode cut tho P
gale by cutting away her masts.
Captain Baker also confirms the report of the 0
loss u? tha b team boat Kate Ward, with most of v
her crew, and he reports the loss of the aohooner d
Magnolia on the beach of Matagorda. (This is
probably the “ vessel from Sabine, with lumber, 77
previously reported lost on the peninsula ) c
Cap'ain B. informs us that the peninsula has ft
several breaks iu it; also Matagorda Island, be- k
tween Saluria and the light houso. 1c
Borne of the bodies of the crows of tho Alida
and 8. Beidou have been found and buried on o
Jit. Joseph’s island. * y
Capt. Baker mentions, as a singular fact, that g
tho gale was not felt with severity at Arandas nor
at Corpus Christi, but that lumbor and pieces of h
vieok wore coming on shore on St. Joseph’s I
Island.
By this arrival wo have tho Corpus Christi paper a
of ttie 27th uit., and tho Galveston Times of the
Ist inst. No news of interest from the former g
placo.
We are glad to learn from the Galveston Times v
t hat the fever in that city has greatly abated. The
Time* says there were but two in’crineiits on the r
22th u*t., and four oc tho 80th. This being the h
case hopes are entertained of tho speedy disap o
pearsuoe of iho pestilence. -
Tho Times, in noticing the receipt by the Gal
veslon Howard Association of SI,S(X) from the
citizens and Howards of this city, and that, lotther
uid is promised, remf-rlta :
“This is certainly an evidence of a most libera!
spirit, an it also manifests a feeling ot sympathy
worthy of the highest commendation, and is an
example for other cities to follow. 1 *
The Times learns that a large vessel bottom np,
woe seen on the 23. i alt., about sixty miles south
west of the mouth of tho Uiwisaippi.
The Galvestou News has a letter from a corres
pondent, givi. g a:i account t f the destruction at
Matagorda. The wiiter says i
Soon a scene of distress and suffering I hope 1
ehall never witness again, and which language
fails to ovon give you tho mo»t distant ilea of. I
raw one lady who was driven if to the streets with
loar -ittle children, corne daggering in (where
several cf as wore trying to take shelter) witn
everything oho had on blown from her body, ud
that of her Lltle daughter. The infant she held in
iter arras alone retained iia cloih-s ; the other
(me threo and tho other five years old, wore torn
front her and are supposed to bo lost. Nor was
this the only case of the kind, for I am informed
by Hr. Dowell and others, that there were, per
haps, a hundred others who were picked up in
the opeu streets and yards early in tne morning.
But enough of this.
The loss of property Is estimated to be “ the
entire value of every species of personal property
iu tho place.” SpoakiDg of tho loss of life, the
writer goes on to say :
“The number of lives lost is not yel known.
We only know positively of rflx, the names of
whom 1 have not yet ascertained. The mother of
Gen. Gordon has iust been taken out of a mass of
fallen lumber, and is expected to die soon. Mr.
James Selkirk had his arm broken, and a large
number of other persons were bally hurt. There
would have been a much greater number of live
lost, but for the untiring energies of a lew young
men, who, throughout the entire storm, encoun
tering the crash of buildings and flying missiles,
were oßgagsd in visit ng from bouse to bouse, ex
tricating those who were buried beneath the .uins.
Lieut. John Heath, a patriot of the revolution,
aged 98 veara, died recently at Windsor, Broome
conntv, New York. He was at the battle of Bunker
Hill, and the following incident is related by the
Binehamoton Democrat. While Heath was ct
Bunker Hill, the enemy at ono time received from
the torice iu that vicinity a drove of at ell fed cattle,
which they were pasturing just ever a ri*e or
ground, at a short distance frem the Americans*
«?: cniiiprnent, and opposite to where Ueu*.. Heath,
tl'cn a private, was situated ns a picket guard.
Heath, upon Jitcoveringthe cattle, unable to resist j
•he temptation, left hie post wheh was wi hin }
raugo of the Bri-iel gv and went and drove int o j
the America camp 44 bead of the enemy’shuttle, I
j receiving, while in t!*e act, the compliment* of the
I British In the shape of two 24 lb. shot, but w»th
| out injury. Oa hearing the report of the British
j guns, Gen. Washington despatched one of his !
Colonels to reconnoitre, who met Mr. H. with the
j cattle, just as he passed .he summit of the hill. j
' Mr. H. stated to trie Golcnoi what he had done; \
| the Colonel told him to go sloug with his eattie,
■ and he would take charge cf his post tilt he came
! back. He was absent from hi* roat ODly about
halt an hour. Heath heard nothing more iu r ' i- j
lion to his exploit, from his officers, till the nox. j
moneirg, when he was summoned to Gen. Wash- j
ington’squarters. The demanded to know
of him how or why he had dared to leave his post!
Mr. H. replied that he kc«w he was guilty of vio- j
.alien of his duty; but the temptatiou was so !
strong he could not resist it. Gen. Washington
reprimanded him said he must never be guilty of
' leavii g his post again ; that he would excu-e him
tfc.a tmio, and d r cted M<-jor Humphrey to take
down hi® name, and H in to leave. Iu the course
ol that day, Gen. Waahiugton sent him thirty-nine
silver dollars and a hind quarter ol beef that
weighed 160 lbs.

tail'ng them.
A Test fob Goffer Orbs —For tho benefit of
those who may have ores ia their possession, but
havo not a sufficient knowledge of chemistry to
test them, we publish the followirg simple tost,
lately communicated to the American Presbyterian
by J. M. Sanford, a practical i iuera!ogi.st. It may
be useful to many persons in those sections where
copper oro ia supposed to exist as it will enable
1 hem to test such specimens cs may come in their
way without difficulty.
The following mode of detecting copper wi’l be
found to bo simple ucd effective, and by careful‘y
attending to the different stops in the process, any
one who can procure a dime’s worth of aquaiorti*-
—or what is the same, nitric acid—will be able to
show the presence of the metal in a rcineru', thut
contains but a trace of it.
In the first place*, reduce the mineral lo bo tested,
to powder. Let a portion of this powder as
much as can bo taken up on a five* cent pieoo— be
roasted. This is easily done by heating it on a
common shovel, until it begins to get rod hot.
The next step is to take the rousted powder—
half oe much r.s indicated .bovc - ill be beat—and
p’aco it on a piece of broken plate or saucer—a
watch gis:»B would bo best. Then drop on enough
ot aquafortis to make a thin paste with the pow
der. Let it stand thus a few minutes—then add,
drop by drop, about r.a much water.
lu cuf*o the minoml possesses abundance of
copper, it is only necessary to insert into this
liquid a clear bright knife blade, when it will at
once booome coated with copper.
In case tho mineral contaius but little of tho
metal, it might be wholly overlooked *u this way.
To delect a small quantity of tho metal, it will bo
ncoQssaty to get rid of most of the aquafortis bo
fore inserting the knife blade. This ia done by
holding the pi co of plate or saucer over a few
coals until tbo powder becomes nearly dry, then
add a few drops of water aga s n, and insert tho
olade. If any copper bo present it will finally ap
pear on the knifed It is proper iu this to let the
blade remain half an hour or more in liquid, it the
copper duos not appear sooner. In this way a
very small amount of copper in a specimen may be
detected.
Keeping Cool. —A correspondent of the Demo

“Keep cool, your honor,” replied Dave, with

I have been trying to no.”
“But you are charged with beiugbeastlydrunk,
and were lying in the gutter.”
“Drunk— not guilty. Lying in the gutter—

“ What were vou lying in the gutter for if you

“ xon see, your honor, 77 replied Dave, with the
sir of a lawy r, “ il was monstrous hot l*st night—

A Mississippi correspondent of tho Mobile Ad
vertlser, givsa the following views and estimate?
' : n relation to tho cotton crop :
Dmr Sir: In compliance with my promise made
o you, I new give you my views of tho crops ol
he couutry we<t of tho Big by riv6r. The cr»p ol
cotton oi Lauderdale, Newton, Neahobae, Win
ston aud Chickatav/, will bo less, by one third.
• han was .produced lust your iu the same counties.
On the crook bottoms the yield will b > nearer an
average, but the ridges burnt up in tho very long
drought that lias prevailed throughout th"s sec
tion. Tho corn crop in those counties i< generally
good—rather over an average.
Iu this (Kemper) county, tho cotton crop will be
n fraction less than last y ear—tho eastern part ot
tho county yielding more, and the west, and eape
cially the south-west, less. Crops of com nro bet
ter in t> is county than last year. Since the loth
or August there has boon no bloom on die cotton,
and usually, you know, blooms to the 10th of Sep
tember are expected to make cotton with a modi
am frost. Tho effect of this is there will be no top
crop made, and the middle crop of bolls, too. is
light. In Noxubee and L >wudc» full as much cot
ton will be produced as iu the former year, and i»
Monroe county raoro, ospooially on the west bide
of the river; but tho crop is eij light on tho east
ern side in Monroe, Lowndes, Pickens and Greene.
L’ke crop of Bampter is decidedly lighter than the
former one—in fact, except in ver email district.-
iu that comity, no-, much over half a fair average
yield will bo gathered. Since the fodder is partly
pulled (us it was neuriy burnt up on tho stalk,)
the general estimate of tho corn crop is loss thm.
before, and railroad contractors cannot now engage
it at less than 50 to GO cents per bushel, wheroaF
laat year at this time 40 cents was the fullest price
asked.
I havo iust rond two letters from Jackson Parish,
La., and Harrison county, Texas, and tho writers
in a large district, cf ray 100 miles around
them, not over half crops of cotton can bo possibly
gathered, an 1 many planters will not re&iiz.) over
-200 to 400 lbs. average, while occasionally a hot
iom farm will yield 600 to 1000 Ids. Both those
districts are upland country, aud have no, retain
ed forms, owing to the extreme drought that has
prevailed with them. Travelers report tho crop ol
north and west Mississippi, in tho direction of
Memphis, Term., an being pooror than iu this sec !
lion. The recent private letters that I have scon
from Benton, Talladega, and Coosa counties, Air., |
are loos favorable to tho crcp than tho published
notices of tho presses. I cannot think that the
crop received at your city will t xcosd, if it readies,
450,000 ba es, and I doubt if the Now Orleans re
ceipts are any larger thau in the past season. It ! (
is now not chimed by any that tho Georgia and
South Carolina crop can even equal tho past, and
the recent accounts from Texas represent the prer.
pect as less promising there than oven early in
August. Many think the time of frost and late ‘
fall usually cause an increase of croo, but this yoar
these causes will not afifjot the yield, us in many
districts tho crop is now all open. My opinion is
that the crop of this year will not equal the past
crop, and may uot exceed 2,7^0,000 halos.

Tbo animal emigration across Ibo plains contin

them, eight in Lumber, were shot, down : a boy
whs also shot down and left for dead. The In

and some children—number not known—together
with the wagons and otock, and made their reiroat
irom the road. After they had departed, the boy
who was only wounded, came to himself and made
his escape. John F. Noble, a man well known iu
Oregon, was in a train behind, and on coming up
found the hoy, and hastened on to Hurnason’s
camp, about 15 miles this side of the Fort, and
from there, Mr. Fruit, a brother of Jus H. Fruit,
camo through to the Dalles, as messenger, with a
request from the Indian agent, Mr. Thompson, for
troops. M»j>r Haller started immediately with
his command of about 80 men from the Dalles to

CoLUMnrs and We-t Point Railroad.- A The
-»roj«ol> of building a Railroad betweeu v l two
poin?s above uarned is attracting considerju tat
tension in our community, ana on the proposed
lino, it may bo interesting to our readers to leurn
semo hing of the dispodticn felt towards the on
terprixo by 01 her Roads, whose interest may be
affected by its completion. We therefore give be
lowa copy of a coiamnnicafon from John P. King
Esq., President of ho Goorgi* Rii'road, addressed
ro ucommit.ee of our City Council, from which it
will appear that the proposed Read its not only
viewed with favor by tbe Atlanta and LaGrange,
and the Georgia Railroad, but, in the opinion ol
Mr. King, liberal aid may bo confidently look'd
(jT from sources foreign to Columbus to carry out
the important work. —Glumbus Enquirer.
Augusta, Sept 8, 1854.
Gentlemen—Absence from homo has prevented
an earner reply to yours ot the 29th o»t.
Tne importance to Coiumbus of a Riilroad from
that city to West Point, or to some suitable point
on the Atlanta and LuG range Railroad, needs no
nrgumont from me; you yourselves seem fully ap
prised of it, aud it has often occurred to rae as
surprising that this enterprise has not heretofore 4
received more attention from your en erprixing <
people. A close commercial <-onneo ioa between j
your manufacturing city and the grain and pro
vision producing regions of Georgia ai d Twines
t ec, is an ohj iOt second to nono in its influenoe 1
upon tho growth and prosperity of Columbus, and .
she will be certainly wise to employ her disposa
ble menus tor us accomplishment.
It is equally obvious that such a Road ie of vast J
importance to the Atlauta and LaGrange Road and
its eastern oonnr ctions. To make a pledge or give
any opinion as to the amount of aid to be expocted 1
from these Roads would bo prem -ture, wr.huut a t
consultation wi-h the stockholders. Ti e iinpor
’ance of the proposed work to the A'.ianta ana
LuGrange Roud is so obvious, ihat I think 1 ina>
venture an opinion that liberal aid would be given |
b> that company, accoidiug to it*- ability. To the
Georgia Kadroud tlio work mot I«hh direct impar
lance, and that company has contributed ao in uci
ly to other RoxJ», that any contribution to this is
lesstobu rolled on. Without being r.bki to give
any definite assurance®, 1 led confl lent that Ihe
work would meet extensive favor, and can scarce
ly doubt that it Cotumbua will make tultabio exer
tions, aid may be derived from other souroes suf
ficitnt to accomplish ims desired work, unless the
cost should lar exceed the estimate presented.
Very reeptoiiully, your obedient servant,
John P. Kih*.

Death or Dr Cullen—D . P. W. Cullen died

In the death of this phya clan the poor have lost

may be said of him that tew pb>Hicians, if any,
had a more extensive charily practice; anj none,
moat truthfully, who performed the noble taek with
mere alacrity than he did. His aim in tho per
formnuoe of duty was not for \he upplsuf-e of his
fellow men, bat us a higher obligation—as an earn*
eet of which hi» martyrdom gave evidence. Hav

upon his own death couch, and but thirty hour"
afier bia effort to wrest his fello w from the arms of

To his parents, relatives and friends, residing in

Missing Ships —The bet of wrecks and casualties
at heu rcgisteied at Lloyd’s during the present
year since the Ist of last January discloses a fright
ful catalogue of ships missing, and which are now
g ven up as lost, having, it is supposed, founder

to be no fewer than 48, which do not include the*
lenses of rfae Madagascar, aud the ill fated City of
Glasgow screw steamer, with which upwards of
C&'J uuhappy creatures were lost. Os the 48, a
large number were vessols bound across the At

we e the following:—The Waterloo, from Liver

from Q’ieb*c tor Bristol; tho Leviathan, of and
from N*w Ysrk, for Liverpool; the Joanna, from
New York, for Dunkirk; tho American Lass, Cap
