Our river lias fallen very last since Sunday, and is now six or eight feet lower than it was on tin* evening of that day. 1 l*o steamer Os wichce arrived from Apalachicola on Monday afternoon, and the Tampa early yesterday morning. We owe thanks to most of our Congressional delegation, ami especially to Hon. M. J. Craw ford, for their favors. Senator Toombs has oTi'r thanks for a copy of his late able address on slavery, delivered at Huston. The Present State ol Affairs in Kansan. The Infest news from Kansas assures us of the intention of tlie pro-slavery party there and in the Missouri border counties to make no aggressive movement, but quietly to await tho expected conflict between the revolutiona ry government and the legal one backed by the Federal authorities. This determination speaks well for our friends in Kansas and Missouri, and proves that they never did contemplate or countenance violence, except in defence of their rights. Tho attempts of the hirelings of the Frecsoil Aid Societies to drive them from the Territory were resisted with a spirit be coming Southern men, to whom the Terri tory was open by the Constitution and the laws of Congress. Having succeeded in this, and having thus forced the aggressive Free soilcrs to resort to a more flagrant viola tion of law and order to sustain their ex elusive pretensions, the friends of the South now do well to surrender to the proper authorities the duty of quelling the rebellion of the abolitionists—for to this point they have carried their plot. Should the Govern ment falter or fail, it will then be time enough for Southern men to assert by their own strong arms their right to settle there with their property unmolested. But in the meantime the nece£Htty for prompt ami extensive emigration from the Southern States is as urgent as ever. Our friends, having defeated the rinlent schemes of the Eroesoilers, must again out note them, or they may yet carry their point. This the South can easily do, hy a littloexortion and patriotic enterprise. The spirit is now up among our people; young men willing to emigrate are not wanting; the meanx to furnish and trans port them are alone to he provided. We re joice to see that in this respect our people arc becoming more liberal. ‘There is now no doubt of the success of Mnj. Buford’s enter prise, and wc believe that one or two large companies will also be soon made up in South Carolina, and perhaps several in other South ern States. The ball is now moving in the right direction, and we have only to keep up its momentum ami it will reach the point de sired. Come up to the work like patriotic men, ami Kansas is surely ours. The Enlistment Difficulty. The President has communicated to Con gress the correspondence that lias taken place between our Government and Great Britain, in reference to the British attempt to recruit sol diers for their army in the United States. Tho correspondence on tho subject is very voluminous, but wc find in our exchanges a synopsis of its points which we will copy to morrow. In the meantime, wo will state that it appears from this correspondence that Mr. Marcy, on the 28tli December last, instructed Mr. Buchanan to ask the British Government to recall Minister Crumpton and Consols Row croft at Cincinnati, Matthew at Philadelphia, and Barclay at Now A ork, for their agency in the matter. Mr. Buchanan, in a subsequent letter, reports having read this letter of Mr. Marcy to Lord Clarendon, but bis Lordship’s reply to the demand for the recall of his Min ister and Consols does not yet appear. In connection with this matter, we remark that a dispatch from Washington to the Balti more Bun declares the rumor that the Presi dent had determined to dismiss Mr. Crumpton immediately, and that a letter for that pur pose had been written, to be entirely unfoun ded. It turther says, that tiie ultimate de termination of the Administration on that sub ject may depend on the tenor of the next for eign advices, unless Mr. Crampton is previous ly withdrawn. The Union states tlmt Mr. Toombs, wltcu lie replied to Unto in the Senate last week, was so loudly applauded from the galleries that it almost became necessary to have them cleared. Hale bitterly assailed the Administration for its course in reference to Kansas and other matters involving the question of slavery, and Mr. Toombs warmly defended it from his as persions. Fearful Steamboat Explosion. The boilers of the steamboat ltelle, running between Sacramento and Marysville, Califor nia, exploded on the Mli ult., on the Sacra mento river, killing nearly one half of her pas sengers and crew. She had on board about sixty persons, and the steamer lien, lledding ton, which went to her assistance, brought off only thirty-two or three, many of them badly injured. It was a most startling and horrible calamity, of which full particulars have not yet been received. This report was brought by the Daniel Webster. An Important Movement. On Tuesday of last week, the House of Dele gates of Virginia, having declared by pream ble that the Fugitive Slave Law at the North is a nullity, and that it is the duty of the Fed eral Government to compensate owners for losses resulting from the escape of slaves, adopted a resolution instructing the Senators and Representatives in Congress from the State to secure the passage of a law making full compensation to owners for all slaves which luivo escaped, or may hereafter escape. We like this better than the Kentucky proposition to tax the slaveholders of the State to pay for a patrol along the Ohio river. But it would still fall short of doing justice to the South, because the Southern people, as well as the slave-stealing community, would be taxed to make up for the damages resulting from the rascality and lawlessness of the latter. The American Nominations. We have carefully noted all tho expression.- of opinion by the newspapers throughout the country, and tiie sentiment *f the few political meetings held since the nominations, and we come to the conclusion that the action of the Know-Nothing Council and Convention at Phil adelphia will be sustained by nearly the whole body of the “ National” order throughout the Union, and by a portion at lcastof those Whigs who have recently been calling for a re-organ ization of their old party, in our own State, so l'ar as wc have had an opportunity of ascer taining, the entire Know Nothing press sus tains the nominations, and the Democratic press in a body opposes them, i lie Macon Citizen protests strongly against the nomina tion of Donelson, ami i not well satisfied with Fillmore. The Columbia(S. C.) Times, which, wc believe, is an American paper, repudiates both Fillmore and Donelson very decidedly The Chattanooga (Tcun.) Gazette is highly gratified at the nomination ol Mr. Fillmore, and will support Donelson, but takes him as a “bitter pill.” The National Intelligencer, the central organ of the old Whig remnant, hails the nomination of Mr. Fillmore with much satisfaction, and speaks flatteringly of Major Donelson, but intimates that the nomination of Dawson, of Georgia, or Rives, of Virginia, on tho ticket with Fillmore, would bo more acceptable. Wo have already noticed that the Alabama Journal, another “old line” Whig paper responds approvingly to the nomination of Fillmore, but makes “wry faces” (which the Major ought not to do, inasmuch as “ex tras” do not help his good looks) at Donelson. We presume that the two papers last mention ed reflect (the aforesaid wry “extras” inclu ded) very faithfully tho general expression of the “never surrender” Whigs of the whole country. We stated yesterday that the American State Council at Canandiagua, New York, unani mously ratified the nominations. In this meeting the President of a Buffalo Council, who was present, put to rest the mooted ques tion whether Mr. Fillmore was a member of the order, by declaring that he was present when the Ex-President was initiated and “put through” the several degrees. We cut the following telegraphic items from our exchanges: Ai.uaxy, Thursday, Feb. UN. ‘The “American” members of the Legisla ture held a meeting at the Capitol last even ing. Nearly every member belonging to the Order was present, together with a majority of the .State officers. Air. Odell presided, and speeches wyro made by Messrs. Odell, Nor tlirup, I’rescott and others, all of whom de clared that Air. Fillmore was not their choice, but that they would give their hearty support to the nomination, as the action of the “Amer ican” party, and would work earnestly for the success 6f the candidates. Resolutions to that effect were sigmed by all the members, and a call is to be issued for a grand ratification meeting. Fifty-eight persons were present, and no dissenting voice. Boston, Thursday, Feb. 28. The Bee, which is the organ of the Ameri can party and the official journal of the State, hoists the Fillmore and Donelson flag this morning. The Charlestown Advertiser docs the same. The Journal speaks favorably of the nominations. The New York Herald thinks that the effect of the action of the National Council and nom inations made will be to dissolve or disrupt the party, to drive the great body of the Northern wing over to the Black Republicans, and to cause the defeat of the Know-Nothings through out the North. It thinks that Fillmore and Donelson will probably carry only the three States of Delaware, Maryland and Kentucky. Central Bank of Tennessee. From the subjoined card, it will be seen, says the Nashville Banner, of first March, that the “Central Bunk,” for the reasons therein stated, stopped payment yesterday. Os the amount of tho present outstanding circulation wo have no data upon which to form an esti mate. Its paper lias been rapidly and steadi ly Rowing in upon it for redemption, since the Banks of this place, several weeks ago, declin ed longer to receive it. Central Bank m Tennessee, [ Nashville, Feb. 20, 1851*. t In consequence of the summary proceedings in the Legislature yesterday, repealing the charter of this Bank, it is deemed prudent by its Directors to suspend all business foj- the present. Holders of its notes are requested not to sacrifice them, as immediate steps will be taken to test the validity of (he act. By order of the Board. S. L. HAVEN, Cashier. Tho American Cotton Planter Presents a very promising and varied Table of Contents in its March number. It is the neatest of our Southern Agricultural Month lies, and one of tho best. The planter who does not find his subscription of $1 a year to this publication a profitable investment, must be very hard to learn, or very “hard up” l'or the dollar. — A young American named Lycurgus l>iu moml is now engaged, in New Orleans, in walking for a wager of $1,500 that he can walk 338 miles in 338 half hours. He com menced on the 28th ult., and on tlmt day did not try to average more than his mile in each half hour, which he accomplished. ♦ in the Mississippi Legislature, a day or two since, Mr. Stark called up liis resolutions touching the Presidential election of 1856. They declare that if all the national conven tions refuse to nominate Presidential candi dates, who are sound on the slavery question, it is proper for the people of the State, irres pective of party, to meet in primary assemblies and send delegates to a State convention to nominate an electoral ticket, pledged to vote for men who recognise the constitutional rights of the South. They also invite other Southern States to unite in a similar movement. A day was fixed for their consideration. The Union states that Postmaster General Campbell has adopted a plan for publishing the names of persons to whom letters have been sent to post offices in California and the territories of Oregon and Washington. By this system a letter can be scut to any post office in the Pacific region for a person whose location is utterly unknown, beyond the mere fact that lie is some where in California or the territories of Oregon and Washington: yet, incredible as it may seem, the ultimate recep tion of the letter hy the person for whom it is intended is rendered highly probable. Torture in India. Kumurs having from time to time reached England, that the tax gatherers in British In dia wore iu the habit us putting tho natives to the most frightful torture, iu order to extort from them the annual tax to which they arc subjected, a committee was appointed by the House of Commons, to investigate the matter, chiefly through the pertinacity of Bright, Ai. I*. for Manchester, who would Hot let the mat ter rest. The Commissioners have now pub lished their report, which fully verities the darkest suspicions as to the fiendish cruelty practiced on the poverty stricken Asiatics. — The Edinburgh Review thus comments on the subject: The tortures which the commissioners find to have been employed, arc of various kinds ami of different degrees of severity. Some of them are so light as to amount to little more than a menace. Some are so severe as to cause not only extreme present pain, but per manent injuries, mutilation, and even, not uu . frequently,’ death. Some of them exhibit an amount of diabolical ingenuity on the part of the torturer, and a degree of moral abasement and degradation in the victim, of which our western minds can hardly form a conception ; some, iii fmo, are so loathsome and indecent, and at the same time so excruciating, that, although they arc set down nakedly in the Re port, we must abstain from any specific allu sion to their nature. The two most common forms of torture ap pear to be the Kiltie (in Tel oogoo called Clue rata) and the Anundal , which, in the same language, is called (Jingcri. The kiltec corresponds with the thumbscrew of the European torture. It is a wooden in strument somewhat like a lemou-squcczcr, be tween the plates of which the bauds, the thighs (in woman also the breast), the ears and other more sensitive parts of the body, are squeezed to the last point of endurance, often to fainting and oven to permanent disa blement. In many places the kittec has been superseded by the more simple plan of vio lently compressing the hands under a fiat board, on which a iioavy pressure is laid, some times even by the peon standing upon it: or compelling tiie sufferer to interlace his fingers, and delivering him over to the iron gripe of the peons (or policemen), who sometimes rub their hands with sand in order to give them the firmer gripe. In other cases the fingers are bent back till’ the pain becomes unendura ble. The anundal is a more purely eastern tor ture. It consists in tying the victim in a stooping or otherwise painful and unnatural position, generally with the head forcibly bent down to the feet, by a rope or cloth passed around the neck and under the toes. The pos ture, however, is varied at the carpice of the executor. Sometimes the poor wretch is made to stand on one leg, the other being forcibly tied up to his neck. Sometimes the arms and legs arc curiously interlaced, and the frame, thus violently distorted, is kept bound up for hours, in a condition little short of dislocation. Sometimes a heavy stono is laid upon the back, while thus bent; and it often happens that the peons amuse themselves by sitting astride upon the unhappy sufferer who is un dergoing anundal. More than one of the wit nesses depose to tiie infliction of this torture under the fierce Indian sun, upon a number of defaulters placed together in rows, for two, three, four, and even six hours ; and this in the immediate vicinity of the cutcherry, or revenue office, and in the presence of the tah sildar, or native collector, of the assembled villagers. Will it be credited, for example, that it is not uncommon to apply to the most sensitive parts of the body (enclosed in a cloth or a cocoa-nut shell, or other similar receptacle), a biting insect or reptile, such as the pollali, or carpenter-beetle, and to leave it to gnaw the flesh of the miserable sufferer ? That by a further refinement of cruelly, meant to com bine both pain and humiliation, the defaulters arc sometimes tied by their hair to tho tail of a donkey or a buffalo ? That they are occa sionally hung up with the head downwards ? And that it is an ordinary practice to put pep per or powder chillies into the eyes or the nos trils, and to apply these and similar irritating drugs in other ways too revolting to be even hinted at? Thus wc find an unforjumitc man, Nanguu Chaloovun, subjected to the anundal, tortured with the kittcc, and exposed to the burning sun during four hours, in order to compel pay ment of an illegal demand of ten annas (fifteen pence)! Another Ryot, namedSinguriah, who refused to pay the sum of one rupee four annas (two shillings aiul sixpence), had his hands tied behind his back and liis head bound, down to his feet with a coir rope, for two hours.— Nay, ia the terrible case of Vencatachclla Ra jadlee, in which one of the parties actually died from the effects of the violence employed, the sum demanded was button rupees ! Duriug the session of the National Ameri can Council in Philadelphia last week, Mr. Burr, of New York, moved his original pro position amid great confusion, ami proceeded to advocate it at great length. In the course of his remarks, he denounced Seward, Greeley and Ward, and said that the North were not all abolitionists. We have plenty of slaves in New York city—poor, degraded creatures. Cries—“ Why don’t you relieve them,” and confusion. Mr. Burr continued, and proceeded to show the heartlessness and chicanery of the Seward party. There was no honesty in it. They took up every ism until they used it up. And, when they were crying the loudest for temper ance, they indulged in the most beastly drunk enness at the Astov House. Why, 1 tell you, gentlemen, that if all the champagne bottles drained on that occasion were piled one upon the other, they would reach nearer the gates of heaven than these infernal scoundrels will ever get. (Boars of laughter and shouts of ap plause. ) We do not know whether “ Burr, of New York,” is a relative of ours, but we do know that he expresses our sentiments toward the Seward party of New York. Burr, wo be lieve, is a preacher, and was formerly a Hard Shell Democrat.— Wilmington Herald. We have been creditably informed (says the Norfolk Herald,) that S. S. Summons, ]£sq., ot Hyde ccunty, North Carolina, has made an assignment to his creditors. Mr. S. is exten sively known through the eastern sections of Virginia and North Carolina, Baltimore, and generally to the commercial community of most of the cities of the seaboard. It is said his lia bilities are over half a million. lie owns some thirty odd vessels, with which he has for many years carried on a cargo trade with our port and the ports of Baltimore, Philadelphia, and others adjacent. He has always been repre sented as a man of great wealth and integrity, lie has three hundred slaves, several large and fertile farms, and immense Juniper and Cypress Swamps, lie was, perhaps, the larg est shingle getter in North Carolina. All his operations were on the largest scale. The Lynchburg (Va.) Republican, a Demo cratic paper, says that the vote of Virginia will lie cast in the Cincinnati Convention for either Buchanan hr Hunter. TJiLEGUAIdIIC. - * — FOUR DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.

This body adjourned .tine die at a late hour on Saturday night. A report of the proceed ings ou the last day of the session has not yet reached us; but we are informed that no measure of general importance was passed.— Tiie following bills relating to our own city were passed, as we learn from a communica tion to the Enquirer: To authorize tho survey and sale of a Square or Lot of land belonging to the State, within the corporate limits of the city of Columbus.

The official dispatches received and opened yesterday by the Department of State, have not yet been made public ; but 1 find they are nut only very important, but are considered by the Administration as bringing matters to an issue between the United States and Great Britain. Yesterday, the President spent most of the day closeted with Mr. Marcy and his assistant, General Thomas; audit is under stood that to-day the communications from Mr. Buchanan will be laid before the Cabinet. The Administration seem not to apprehend really a war, although it is believed that the present Ministry of England would not hesi tate to hasten such an event, if they dared do so. It is all bluster with the English press ; let it sec dignity and firmness with ours. The commercial cord between the two nations is most delicately strong, and vibrates to every touch of the newspaper press, To this fact the British look as a lever in their hands to sway public sentiment and create excitement. Hence their blustering and swaggering. This can be counteracted most successfully by the ! American press maintaining a dignified posi tion, and treating the whole subject in a plain common sense, straight forward way. Tho President was exceedingly anxious that the steamer which left New York yesterday should have carried out the “Correspondence on the Enlistment Question,” for the eye of the European public, since the British Parliament has lent itself to base purposes and endeavored to place Mr. Buchanan in an unpleasant posi tion by falsifying the record on this subject.— The correspondence was called for by the Sen ate on Monday, but it was found impossible to get it copied and prepared for the press prior to the sailing of the steamer yesterday. The papers, however, will carry a nut for our English friends to crack. The* message of the President recommending an appropriation of three million of dollars to brighten up 300,- 060 stands of arms, will astonish those who imagined that Brother Jonathan was to be alarmed by a foe he had several times whipped; and when considered in connection with the other important fact which will also reach them, that a semi-official recommendation had been made to construct fifteen additional war steamers, some folks will begin to understand tho further fact that about two-thirds of our people, including the mighty West, are always beuefitted by war, and that such will be the sentiment of the American Congress. It is well that we should furnish some spicy ingre dients for their one sided war-fever excite ments. Whether they will he enjoyed with a zeal we shall learn in due time. Ivaxuok. The Hog Trade. Cincinnati, Feb. 26.—The Price Current of this week gives the returns of the number of hogs packed in one hundred and forty-five place in the West, showing an increase in the number ns compared with last year of 214,000: and an increase in weight equal to 217,300. — About 70 plaoes are yet to be heard from.— The average increase in weight is twelve per cent.
