easily -demon'-:!rated that a coil of wire, over eo
!l iiiHidated, if immersed in water, will not effect

.-trie cun ni. and would in the length of the cable

illlial < ouid be Ibrecil through so suyill a wire as
Hie on** eiuiteinplab-d. Jlui even admitting a

that in submerged wires a perceptible period of

In tin next place, leaving out of the question
:a* i radical and insurmountable obstacles in the
ay<*! ih present plan for a Telegraph, the im
probability, to use no stronger term, of securing a
perfect insulation with so thin a coating of giuta
P-i rha for so many hundred miles of wire, when
tin- slightest particle of damp—even the prick of a
pin through i! delicate covering, would destroy
ti**' whole work-, is of itself an important item in
making up tin* chances of success.
Then the almost impossibility of laying down so
. M ird delicate a cord without an acciueut, from
i11P: nngiiig, perhap: , against heavy seas, when the
ligiitest -; i am would damage either the cent ral wire

A measure has been introduced in th*: Senate by
Mr. CoflVctk, making provision for the legalization ol
the unconstitutionally contracted debt by the peo
ple themselves. The bill is a good one, and will
pass. While it cannot impose upon California any
new obligation to pay her debts, nor gives our
creditors any additional claim upon us, it will have
the very good effect of convincing the world that
California will not, in any possible event, refuse to
pay her debts. Aside from this subject, the proceed
ings of OUT sitting Legislature have been confined
to matters of local interest.
The Legislature is now instituting inquiries into
the conduct of the Statv Treasurer, who has trans

Thi Late Storm ano its Effects. —The heavy
snow storm which swept over the country last week,
clothed everything in habiliments of the Arctic re
gion, and with that little snow that has since fallen,
now covers the ground to the depth of troni sixteou
inches to two feet. It has been very cold during
th** whole of the past week, aud though clear lor
the last few days, the snow still remains, affording
good sleighing, sleighing is a rare feature in Ore

A New Diamond. —Two French chemists, Messrs
Wohler and Denville, have succeeded in crystsliz
ing the well known substance boron, which has
hitherto been known as a greenish brown powder,
or in combination with an acid, and they submitted
specimens of the crystals to the French Academy
of Sciences a short time since. The crystals posses
ses a brilliancy and refractive power which nothing
equals but the diamond, and they rival even that in
hardness, being capable of scratching corundum,
being next to the diamond, is th? hardest substance
known. The specimens yet obtained are very
small, and have a shade of red or yellow; but the
color is believedto de accidental, and they hope that
further experiments will enable them to procure it
colorless. Boron agrees with silicon in many pro
perties, and is considered as intermediate between
it and carbon. This discovery may soon put us in
possession of a fictitious diamond * which the most
experienced eye will be unable to distenguiah from
the genuine.— Tribune.
The Collision between the Steamboats Be:.
FAST AND Him BOLT.— Further Particulars. — The
steamboat Belfast, Cant. Church, arrived last eve
ning from Memphis. From her officers we learn
the following particulars of the collision between
her and the steamboat Humboldt, of which we had
a telegraphichic report in yesterday's Evening Pic
av nue.
it appears that about 1 o’clock on Saturday morn
ing last (not Friday morning, as reported by tele
graph.) ae the Belfast was coming down the river,
she came in collision, at Ozark Isiaud with the
Humboldt, Captain Holcroft, hence for Nashville,
which resulted in the tola! loss of the Humboldt, to
gether with twenty of the crew, three ot whom were
white men, and seventeen negroes, and her large
and valuable cargo I The Humboldt sank almost
instantly. The contents of the clerk s office were
mostly saved, and among them a box containing
S6OOO in specie, for the Planters’ Bank, at Clarks
ville, Tenn.
We have been unable to gather further particu
lars of the disaster, but from all we can learn, the
collision and its result were unavoidable.— N. O

$120,000 accrue to the post offices without, t.hcir per

Fearful Effect of a Kobf. Breaking. — l The
steamer New-York, in her trip to St . Louis from
Cincinnati, Wednesday, got aground at. Vevay,
where she remained until the Argonaut, upward
bound, came along. The latter was hailed to assist
her, and while in t lie act of pulling her by means of
a lutuser that led from (he capstan at the stern, the
line paried, and ail of the crew of the New York
who were at work on the capstan at the time were
much hurl. There was a heavy strain on she hauscr,
the end of which as if parted struck the men
with such fearful force that they were knocked
senseless to the deck, presenting a most terrible
scene. If was thought at first that several of 1 la
poor fellows had been killed outright. One had Ids
arm broken, another a leg snapped off' below the
knee, a third had Ids lingers cut off*, as by a knife,
while one man had his back broken, and the ribs of
another on one side were all crushed in. The suf
ferers were stricken down and strewn over the deck,
ail bleeding and maimed, as suddenly and fatally as
shot l»y a c&unon ball, presenting a shocking spec
tacle. They were placed on the Argonaut and sent
back to Cincinnati, where, we understand, they re
side.—Lonisvillc Con t ier.
We read, in La France Medicate , the following :
“Several scientific journals lately announced a dis
covery which will not proveto be the least curious or
remarkable of our age. Mr. Steck, a chemist of
Stuttgart, has recently discovered a vegetable sub
stance which is endowed with the surprising and sin
gularly remarkable property of revivifying the ca
pillary bulbs iu cases of baldness. The experiments
which have just been made iu Paris on a number of
honorable pel-sous, who had been bald for Several
years, and on whom this preparation lias caused the

- Fatal Affray. —The Ualeigli, N. C. Standard
learns that on Monday last, at the institution for the
deaf and dumb and the blind iu that city, a boy
about sixteen years of age named Harrell, a pupil in
tlie deaf and dumb department, was killed in a sud
den altercation by another pupil, William Keek.
The altercation and fatal result took place a lit Je
after dark, in a common study room, and in t’:e
presence of a number of w itnesses. Blows were
exchanged by the parties several times. Keek is a
poweiful voting man, and the other was compara
tively feeble. His death was immediate, and seem
ed to result from the blows inflicted by the fist of
his adversary. A few moments before, the parties
were apparently on friendly terms.
A Singular Case.—On Sunday last Drs. Free
man and Perry, of Saratoga, amputated the leg of
a Mr. Smith, a resident ol that village The cause
for the amputation was the ectual death of the
limb. Mr. S., who is a laboring man of industrous
and temperate habits, some six weeks since, while
walking, was seized with a sudden pain in the leg,
about half wav from the knee to the ankle, and im
mediately ali the sensation of feeling below the re
gion of the pain ceased. The look and color of the
skin, and to the touch, was that of a dead body, and
all life or animation below, midway from the knee
to the ankle, was entirely eradicated. The above
physicians attended ti_3 sufferer and used all the

the cause for so sudden and singular a result could
not be accounted for. Circumstances of palsied or
paralized limps are of frequent occurrence, but that

The Directory of the Clay Monument Associa
tion, at Lexington, Kentucky, has at. last selected a
design for the national monument to oe erected in
the cemetary near that place, over the remains ot
Henry Clay. The height of the column, together
with the base or sarcophagus, is to be one hundred
and nineteen feet, and upon the summit there will
be placed a colosal statue of the departed statesman.
The association have decided to construct ihis mon
ument of Kentucky stone, the magnesia limestone,
which is said to be as indestructible as Egyptian

ihe 12th of April, Henry Clay’s birth-day. The

in reaching the summit of Mount Popocatepetl. *se
was one of a party of eighteen, who set oul for that
purpose from the city ot Mexico, on the 12th inst.
The following is from Lis own account of tlve feat:
We arrived at Amecameca on the evening of the
i Ith inst.. Four of our number had boeu obliged
to return, and another, with servants, left us at
\ mrramrrn Ai this point, through the kindness
of our hospital friend®, we procured oar guides and
made the necessary arrangements for the ascent
of the mountain When our object became known,
we were at once joined l»y a number ot volunteers,
all anxious to accompany us to the sumnvV
While some spoke of the season of the year, and*
of the intense cold we might anticipate, others told
us of a [with to the crater, made by the Indians go
ing up and returning with the sulphur , but we found
that bui few of oar friends had been beyond Ike snow
line. aud that the mountain had not been ascended
by even an Indian for months, the working of the
sulphur ceasing with t he commencement oft he rainy
season.
At noon, on the lStb. we took leave oL our kind
hofjt. aud turn*-dour horses' heads toward? the moan
talus. YYe soon reached Toiuaeoca. We were here
joined by a party, among whom was Don Pablo
Perez, a gentleman who had been engaged in ex
tractiug the sulphur from the volcano, and who had
pursued the occupation for three years. His advents
had been frequent, and we felt reassured by his res
olution to accompany us Our road unw was up.
ovef steep ascents, through the cedars and pines .
wild flowers of every Line grow ; trough the tangled
shrubbery. By sundown w«- arrived much fatigued
from our day's Journey, at Tlamaeas.
Our party numbered twen y, including guides and
p*-‘»us. We set out from Tlumacaa next in* truing,
on horseback as far as La Cruz,koine thousand IV-el
above Here, with two of my companions, I sei
out ou foot, the remainder rode on some distance.-
At the same time we all joined, a«d after the final
arrangements of our pack . «Y c . we grasped our
spears, and protecting our eye? from the reflection,
set out upon the snow, cur guides ahead—The In
di&ns with our packs followed. Our first .t: . at
was steep and amid frozen snow The guides and
Indians struck boldly out, without spear or staff, the
reel of us, dinging to cue snow spears, slowly fol
lowed. Up we went mieeight hundred feet, when
getting in advance of the party, we halted to take
breath —respiration had become labored and diffi
cult—and as I sat exhausted ou the snow, a dead
feeliug, akin to sea-sickness, came over me. Rally
ing, however, I looked around me for my com pan
ions, and of all those who had joined us at Amec a
meca, not one remained. Two of my friends, with
the guides, were above me shouting to us to follow.
On we went, riowly and tediously Tiie difficulty
of travelling increase* with every step. Tlie ser
vants who accompanied ns bad all given out, and
taking the barometer from one who had sank ex
hausted, I joined my * companions above. On we
toiled some hundred yards further, and again we
stopped to rest. Oar number was now reduced to
four and our two guide®. The same sickness 1 had
experienced was now felt by others; the oppression
was extreme.
The cold was intense. My companions complain
ed loudly of their feet, and so great was the suffer
ing of one of them that I persuaded him to return.
One only accompanied me for a short dbtanre,
when he returned with one guide to follow Ids de
scending companions. 1 was now alone wjjli one
guide and but halfway to the summit. The ascent
became more aud more difficult, as breaking the
ice at every step we progressed slowly aud tedious
ly. Once inore I turned to look back from my diz
zy height One mid step, and inevitable destruc
tion awaited us in the abyss b low. The stiffness of
the {grave was over every thing, and recoiling from
the eight I looked down no more To go oil for
more than eight or ten paces without stopping to
take rest was impossible, so rarified had th-r air be
come. At one time, aftei an extraordinary exer
tion to reach my guide, I fell exhausted and for
some moments was unconscious. The blood gushed
from my nostrils. Checking it with the frozen snow,
I rallied and clambered on My guide, more* inured
to such trips, had got far ahead The sickening
sensation I had at fir®r experienced, returned with
redoubled force. As I again sank exhausted on the
snow, a heavy weight seemed pressing upon me,
and everything appeared to grow dim again, when
I was aroused by loud shouts from my guide, as
standing high above me he shouted, “the crater!’’
“the crater*' Up, up, again I climbed, clinging to
his footprints ; one*long, painful struggle more, and
I sank exhausted upon its brink.
J looked around me, and the world seemed
stretched beneath my feet. The lovely valley of
Mexico, with its lakes and mountains, lay like a
map beneath me ; t<> the south and west lay the
Ticrra Caliecte, its hills red in the setting sun. A
mist.y rirn of silver showed, the Gulf of, Mexico far
to the eastward, and the frosty top of Orizaba rose
graddly trom the purple landscape. Though con
versant with nature, 1 had never before beheld her
in such magnificence. To remember that, sight
must ever be n glory—to forget, it can only occur
with a geueral decay of the Lieu I ties.

Election Frauds in Philadelphia.— Ti, - (
has been much said about what particular political
parties have been guilty of fraud in different local!
ties. The seventh division of the fourth ward of
this city, as shown in the contested election case of
Mann and Cassidy, put in a strong claim for pro
eminence on the aide of Mr. Cassidy’s friends. There
appear ou the list of voters 250 names that are up
on the list of taxables, of which it was proven 50
had moved away aud did not vote or were dead.
There were 175 persons voted whose names did not
appear on the list of taxables. So that, by this
means, a division which had. only at the Mayor’s
election, given 229 votes, 189 for Mr. Vaux and 40
for Mr. Conrad, gave Mr. Cassidy 393 votes and Mr.
Maun 33, or a total of 420 ! This. i1 is thought, is
doing pretty well, particulatdy as challengers of the
opposition wore present aud disputed the right of
130 of these to the elective franchise. This is the
precinct, though, where the jndge3 told the chal
lengers, “General Challenge don't lire here.* The
purity of the ballot-box is a great tiling in n free
country!
The Tea Market. —We have received from Mr.
George W. Walter, No. 48, S. Gay street, a circular
letter, dated Hong Kong, 13th December, from the
house of W. Wetmore Cryder, of Canton. This
letter gives quite a discouraging account of the Tea
trade, showing it to have been seriously interrupted
by recent difficulties. Points of contention had also
arisen between the French and Chinese govern
ments. The circular further states from the pre
sent aspect of affairs at Canton, a resumption of
trade seems more distant than ever, and many fear
that a? the present difficulty assumes a more general
character, trade at the northern ports will be inter
dieted by the Imperial government.”
The amount of Green Teas exported to the Uni
te*! States from July Ist, 1856, to December 13th.

LAND AND WATER POWER SITE FOR

Augusta, the tract of LAND I bought at the sale of tho
executor of rny deceased husband, James Lovell, con
taining Two Hundred and Forty-Seven (247) Acres,
bounded on the north by the Georgia Railroad, (crossing
the Milledgeville road); on east by lands of Dr. Win. 11.
Tutt; on south by Mr. Harmon Rowley’s lands, and
west by land s of Ex-Gov. Crawford, and running up to
within a few hundred yards of Bei-Air, lying on both
ides of Butler s croek, on which is an available water
power, known as “ Hale’s Upper Mill,” considerable of
the old dam yet remaining, offering similar aud equal
advantages with the Bel Air Mills, by conveying the
water off by a canal to a more eligible site at a trifling
cost, and getting six feet more head of water, besides a
security to the buildings in case of ireshet. It is pre
eminent for a Mill, being at a point to command the ad
vantages of the Geoigia Railroad transportation, a
healthy place to live, with excellent water, a free use of
firewood, grojpid to cultivate, the profits of hogs raised,
and then being free from city and canal taxes will natu
rally invite a comparison that, this property cannot suf
