Mr. Ede g. vee a very interesting account of bia
descent intr the “waters below’ with the Finking
*hM Not being aware that the ship was making
her lost plunge he held on tightly to one of the ropes
and was carried down to a great depth, under the
impression that it nan merely a sea sweeping over
her. In this state of things his mind had become
somewhat bewildered, and it was until the re
sisting force of a large cork life preserver which he
had on broke away bis hold upon the vessel that he
was again in pos* of his reasoning faculties
and began to realize the fact ol the ship having
really sunk and carried him down. He quickly,
however, reached the surface, and was carried far
up and sustained to a considerable height above
water amidst a aurrounding mass of human beings
struggling on all sides lor as. 4 * 'stance and lor life. At
this moment the scenes, he says, was most harrow-
ing, and as different persons caught at him for as
sistance, lie was compelled to throw them oil as best
he could, or else be hopelessly engulphed himself.
A- he rose first to the surface tliere was a wild and
powerful screaming amongst the mass ot lungs who
were eddying round and round in the whirlpool
caused by the descent of the engulphed ship. His
first purpose was to extricate himself from the con
fused and struggling crowd, which he succeeded in
doing by swimming outward at intervals, as he from
time to time freed himself from groups that he en
countered. The result in his own case, and as con
firmed by observation of those who surrounded him,
establishes (as he considers) the great value of the
cork life-preserve!), and the utter worthlessness, or
at !nst insecurity and uureliablenesa. of the tin pre
servers, which are generally so much more abun
dant than any others ou ml sea-going steamers.—
Those who had the tin ones generally fared badly,
and finally he picked up several as he floated about,
which, after a time filled with water and sunk. Ile
fore being taken up by the bark Ellen, he came
across a raft, on which he got, and where he could sit
or Iny down with considerable comfort. lie could
have saved a number on this, had he at that time
been able to find them. Hut they hud generally dis
appeared from sight, either by having sunk or
floated off to a distance. As ho called out at diffe
rent times for fellow’-sufferers, lie found that the re
sponses gradually grew’ less and leas numerous, and
just before being rescued, lie could not hail over a
dozen to twenty. Mr. Kde extols to the highest de

The appalling )• h of life on the “Central Amer
ica” hat* no parallel iu the annals of American
strnuipiiip navigation. The nearest approach is the
disaster which btfel the steamship Arctic, on the
*J?th of September, 185-1, by which somcthiDg like
three hundred and fifty liv s were lost The steam
ship San Fram-isco, belonging to the Pacifio Mai 11
Steamship Company, which foundered in the At
lantic on the 25th of D*cember, 1853, win lost under
ciri umstarct s t- nsi!; r iu many respects to the dis
aster which has just occurred ; but the number of
lives sacrifu* and was much lets—not varying far
from two hundred, including lot) IT. S. troops.
Taking a retrospect, with a view to recount the
various catastrophes which have befallen ocean
steamships owned in or trading with the United
States, we find that the follow mg have .been entirely
lost:
Name. Fate. Valuation.
President, Never heard of $350,000
Columbia, All ha r .ds saved 3')fi,ooo
Humboldt, All hands saved 500,(HH)
City of Glasgow, Never heard of 200,000
City of Philadelphia, All handssa ve * 300,000
Fo nklin, Al! bauds saved 480,000
San FniucistKi, A low saved 300,000
Aictic, A few saved 700,(MK)
Pacific, Never heard of 680,000
Tempest. Never beard of 3(H),000
Central Ann ioa, A few saved 140,000*
$ 1,250,000
‘Exclusive of about $1,>00,000 in specie.
If the cargo was fuel tided, these figured would be
more than doubler!. The President was lost in
the year 1841 ; uo one knows how or where. The
Columbia, in nautical phrase, “broke her back” on
the rocks on the American shore of the Atlantic.—
The Pity of Philadelphia went to pieces on the rocks
in ar Cape Knee. The City of Glasgow sailed from
Liverpool March Ist, IS I, and was not afterwards
heard of. The Great Britain came mar being in
cluded in the list, having lain ashore for some
mouths at Dundrum Bay. coast of Ireland, but is
now engaged as a transport for India. Tint Frank
liu and Humboldt went ashore and broke in pieces
—-the former on Long Island, and the latter near
llal fax The Arctic aud Pacific were lost as al
ready recorded. The irou steamer Tempest, mea
suring 1 ■’ tons, a New Tea Iwk
ISi>7, with a crew of from thirty five to forty uicn,
and was never heard faun. On the Pacific, several
line steamers have been lost* generally of a smaller
c ass. The Independence, for instance, was totally
lost, with 120 lives . and the Tennessee, St. Louis
and Yankee Blade, Winfield SooU and others, be
i ame total wrecks.
Kugiish steamers, in waters contiguous to the
United States, have fared little better. Within a
abort time, we have had to re ord the ioes \ f the
tine fa'ii steamship Canadian, on the St. Lawrence ;
also the steamship Clyde, and several steamers in
the West India Is anas.
A calculation as to the number of lives lost in
these steamers, makes a total of about seventeen
hundred. This loss being irraparable, no consola
tion can be derived from tire fact that a large pro
portion of it might have been prevented by a divis
ion of these ships luto compartments by water-tight
bulkheads. but there is opportunity to make the
adoption of such a means of safety compulsory upon
the owners of all ft-n going steamers, and thereby
doing much to prevcm the recurrence of catastro
phes such as we too often have occaeun to deplore,

cannot make a man a nUzem of a State, and ought
no t uow, as it never did before, tn the frrniorteM,
until the Van iiuien principle was incorporated into
the Kausaa bill. t
I defy Mr. Too®be to name the terntonal bill
(nave the Kam-atf bill) that has not the resident citi-
Z en bill incorporated into it. They all read twne,
but those vho were in the Territory at the time of the
pasnagc of the* act , or none bnt citizens of the tou
ted Suite s, shall vote in the Territory.
In the early history of the Government, the prac
tice ww to express the territorial bill thus— -‘ none
but those who were in the Territory at the time of
the passage of the act, could vote or bold office. ’
The reason for that was, there were few or no fo
reigners coining to this country, and there was no
necessity for their going into the territories, as the
States were but thinly settled. So soon, however,
a* they began to come in large numbers, the other
words were added to the qualification of voters—
none hut citizens of the United States should vo’e
or hold office in the Territories. Mr. Toombs says
it has been the policy of the Government to allow
alien* to vote m the Territories. It has neither
been the policy of the Government, nor the doctrine
otthe South. No Southern man ever dared to vote
for and defend alien suffrage in the Territories, ex
cept Mr. Toombs. To prove it has neither been
the policy of the country, cor a doctrine of the
.South, it is only necessary to look at the vote on the
Clayton amendment to the Kansas bill. Every
Southern Senator in Congress voted for the resolu
tion, that none bnt citizens of the United States shall
vote and hold office in the Territory of Kansas,
Page 520, Congressional Globe, vol. 28, part Ist,
1853 and 1854.) It has been the policy of tiie North
to try and fasten it on the South. Douglass and
(Ja3s labored to engraft the principle in the Utah
and New Mexico bills, but failed.
If the Senator's object was the repeal of the Mis
souri restriction, how could the Legislature of Geor
gia sanction and instruct him to vote for a fact and
principle on the 17th day of February, that never
was offered as an amendment or submitted by Judge
Douglas befo e the 15th day of February, 1854, on
ly two days from the time it was introduced in the
Seriate of the United States, before the Legislature
of Georgia sanctioned and instructed him to vote for
it ? I ;'.-ave Mr. Toombs to reconcile the *.hing, (see
Congressional Globe page 121, vol. 28, part Ist, 1853
and 1351.)
Mr. Toombs, on the 2d day of September, 1857,
tells you the Ordinance of 1787 exclude slavery from
tiie Territories On the 27th day of February, 1850,
he says the action of Congress iu the Ordinance of
17*7, does contravene the principle that the Terri
tory is open to slavery and its protection there! He
invokes the great nam-j of Washington to sustain
him in the declaration that alien suffrage in the Ter
ritories has b-eii the policy of tiie Government, and
names in proof the Ordinance of 1787, as signed by
that good man. The reason the Hon. xSenator calls
to his aid the name of Washington, is that he hopes,
hy the charms of that name to reconcile the South,
and make the “People forget that the South, with a
singular unanimity of sentiment and action, has
uniformly opposed aud a voted against the doctrine
of alien suffrage in the Territories. Aud why ?
Because it is the doctrine with which Seward, Hale,
Chase, Summer fund Douglas means to crush out
the life biood of the South in tiie Territories. Tiie
Hon. Senator will excuse mo when I give him the
reason he gave, on the 27th day of February, 1850,
why the Ordinance of 1787, did not exclude the
slave owner from carrying his negroes into the Ter
ritories, and were there adequately piotected.
Mr. Toombs said u Mr Madison said the Ordi
nance of 1787 was void for want of power in the Old
Oon rnmenl.’ 1 (Appendix to Congressional Globe,
page 200, vol. 22, part Ist, 18P.) and 1860.) While
Toombs iu 1850, iu the House of Representatives
was denouncing Cass’ alien suffrage and squatter
sovereignty iu the Territories, Seward, Douglas
and Cats were defending it in the Senate of the
United States. In Macon, he gave ad a reason for
lus opposition lo Gen. Ca-ss, hid doctrine of squatter
sovereignty, which doctrine Gan. Cats says is in the
Kansas bill. Ho says that Mr. Hill sayd the first
time the doctrine that any but the citizens should
vote in the establishment of a State Government,
was started by Mr. Buchanan in 1818. Now Mr.
Toombs says he has Mr. Hill’s letter before him. 1
a.-k the attention oft hose who heard and read that
speech of Mr. Toombs, to note what. Mr. Hill did day
at that point in his letter. Mr Hill says, “As far as
I have been able to search, this i9 the first time ihe
idea was over suggested of leaving the question of
slavery to the inhabitants or all the people of the
Territory without regard to citizenship;’ You now
have betoro you what Toombs said Hill did say,
and also what Ilill did say ! Mr. HiH is right, for
Mr. Buchanan w as the first that proposed to use the
inhabitants of the Territory as an engine of power to
ejectude shivery , for he urged the policy of going for
the Missouri line, and Lo satisfy his Northern breth
ren who were for the Wilmot Proviso. He told
them that the inhabitants of that Territory south of
3C 30 would have the right to exclude slavery, and
a majority of the people <3 that region, w<*u!d not
consent to establish it. Why \ Mr. Buchanan says,
“because a large portioned the population are ne
groes, and do not socially belong to a degraded
race.” That was the reason why the Hon. W. L.
Yancey, of Alabama, refused to support Buchanan
and Cass in the Convention that nominated Cass in
1818 l 1 wish the people to notice the misrepresen
tations of Mr. Toombs. It is a pointer for the gen
tleman's friends to look at, for it was a deliberate
mistake of facts , and he knew it when he did it.
Again, Mr. Ilill is right when he says they paused
70 internal improvement bills at one session. To
explain and let the people know who is and who is
not right, 1 refer them to the Congressional Globe
of 185.) aud 1856. Look under the head of “Grarts,”
and you will find 10 or 15 amendments to one bill
granting lands to as many different States. Con
solidate these grants to the different States under
the bills, as named by Mr. Toombs, and you will
find Mr. Hill is right and Toombs wrong. There
were at one session passed 70 bills ot internal im
provements. Mi Tiiombs a*ks tbat he may be
judged by the effects of the measure he supports.
Well, ycu iu parsing the Kansas bill, have practi
cally inaugurated the doctrine of alien suffrage, and
that the people of the territory, iu a legislative ca
pacity, may or may not legislate on the subject of
slavery. What is the effect t You have, by your
legislation, gotten up a contest between the North
and South, to see who shall soonest populate the
territory. Not willing that the South should have
the North alone as a competitor, you fasten upon
your own section the world as her rival for supre
macy in the territory. Where ia the equality or
justice in a pr lo that gives to the world the
right to dispoe le South's interest iu the territo

of last week. For a week previous the family no
ticed that her mind was affected, but apprehended
no danger. On Tuesday morning she attended to
her duties as usual—brought water for he mother,
and her father proceeded to the fodder field, expect

Her not doing so drew him to the house to ascertain
the reason of her delay ; not finding her there, the
family became alarmed aud made a search, when
they found her suspended to a bush dead. —Ander

CHARLESTON, Sept 25.— Cotton.—' The stock of
Cotton is very light, and the transactions have necessa
rily been limited. The sales embrace some 750 bales at
extremes ranging from 13) to 16c—about 22 bales of
strictly Fair having brought the latter price. The bulk
cl the transactions, however, were at 15i for Good Mid
dling, and 151 for Middling Fair quality. Avery large
portion of the sales consisted of the new crop. The re
ceipts of the week have reached ‘.UK) bales. All descrip
tions of Long Cotton have been very much neglected ;
in fact so little has been dene in them, that operations
may be said to Lave been brought to a close.
Bice— This article has attracted very little attention
since the date of; ur last publication. The receipts of
the week have been limited to *6l tierces, about 240
tierces of which were of the new crop, the first of the
season, which were sold in about equal parts at sll ard
s4l per hundred. These sales, together with a lot of
prime of the old crop, which brought as high as s4}, are
we believe the only transactions.
Com —The receipts siuce our la-t comprise about 1000
bushels Maryland and2ooo do. of Mixed North Carolina.
The former had not be*n sold when we closed our report.
The latter brought yesterday 72e, per bushel, the lowest
point the market has yet reached for this description.—
The market for country Corn has been iu a languid aud
depressed state throughout the week. The
prices, which stood at 78fc85c., have dropped to 75'a/78c.,
sack included, at which rates the market closed.
Oats— The receipts since our last reach nearly 7000
bushels, 2000 of which came to a dealer ; 2*oo were sold
to arrive, <u long time, at 41c., and the balanc* remain
ed unsold when we closed our report.)
Wheal —The transactions ip Red, although limited,
show a decidedly bettor market, which closed at $1.25
and $1.50-fe> bushel, establishing an advance of s*2>loc.
on the previous prices White is firm, at $1 40 4?* bush
el. The receipts sine j our last reach 32,945 bushels.
Flour —The stock has been materially reduced, and
prices for sacks have improved. The sales have been at
$3 and s3l, ami the transactions iu barrels have been
chiefly at s6l and sfii.
Hay. —The receipts since our last fact up nearly 1000
bales, *SO of which were sold on arrival at 80c.; aud a
store lot of 450 bains brought the same price.
Bacon —Several small lots Sides and Shoulders have
boeu sold out in a retail way, at to 17c. for the form
er, and from 144 to 15c. for the latter, as in quality. Ex
tra Hams have brought as high as 17c.
Lard —We have no transactions to report.
Salt —The demand, which has been limited, ha3 been
supplied at 75 to 80c. sack.
Groceries —We have no ‘transactions to report in the
leading articles comprised under this head, aud in the
present stagnant and neglected state of the market it is
impossible to offer any quotations that could in the least
be considered reliable. *So far as Sugar is concerned, it
is entirely out of favor, and purchasers will r.ot touch it
unless it is to supply their immediate wants. These re
marks will apply with equal force to all descriptions of
Molasses. Rio Coffee is being retailed out at 101 to 12
cents.
Exchanges —There has been very ! ittlc doing in Sterl
ing, aiul price* at present are nominal. There is very
little domestic paper ottering, and the want of Exchange
is a serious inconvenience to business.
Freights— The la t engagements to Liverpool wore
made at id. for Cotton in square bags, and 9d. for Wheat.
There is very little offering coastwise. We quote by
steamer to New York, Cotton 20c. 100; Flour 30c. 4P’
bbl.; Wheat 7c. V bushel; aud in tailing vessels, Wheat
at 50., and Cotton 50e, IP* bale

The TALOMICCO, 4CO tons capacity, and 16 inches
draught of water;
The new iron steamer AMAZON, 866 tons capacity,

The AMAZON is built of iron, and no expense has
been sj ared in her construction to make her worthy ©f
the patronage es the public.
These Boat- will compose the line for the approaching
season, and will, from tbeir light draught of water, be
enabled to deliver goods promptly at all Binges of our
. v ®’- XQ d hipperß by this line may rely on dispatch
;nthe forwarding of their goods.
The importance of keeping up a water communication
between Savannah and Augusta, is too apparent to the
merchant- of Augusta, Savannah, and the interior, to re
quire any advocacy here. Suffice it to say, that the
river communication is now, and has been since the com
mencement of railroads, the regulating medium for
freight charges. No better evidence of this can be pro
duced than the exceedingly low rates of freight between
Savannah and Augusta, when compared with other
points a few hundred miles on either side of us.
Mr M. A COHEN is still the Agent of this line at
Savannah, to whom all Goods should be consigned, which
will be forwarded free of any charge for commission.
One of the Boats of this line will leave Savannah every
other day, and discharge at this place tri-weekly.
